236 The problem of the church
Intelligence Director Varis is a eunuch and always speaks softly when speaking, but there are seven people on the imperial conference table, and they are surrounded by people, so no one can hear them clearly.
At this time, King Robert was sitting at the first position. Because he disliked his blonde hair, he suspected that there might be some witchcraft power inside, he shaved his hair directly, and his bare forehead was in tune with Varis beside him.
"Can he still think that those wolves can run into the Twin City and bite Old Frey to death?" After hearing Varis' words, the bald king said in a muffled voice: "Or who is difficult to walk suddenly wants to go out and get attacked by those wolves?"
Robert suddenly caught a cold these two days, his nose was blocked, and his voice seemed very strange, and this was also regarded as one of the manifestations of being hit.
"We have no way of knowing the specific situation, Your Majesty."
Varis replied softly: "The Duke of Tully is investigating the matter."
Robert waved his hand without any interest when he heard this, so Varis closed his mouth in a clear way, and the Duke of Metz on the other side took the opportunity to speak, "The messenger of Bravos Iron Vault comes to collect debts. Your Majesty, look... are you going to meet him?"
"Just let you, the Chancellor of the Exchequer," Robert said without hesitation when he heard this, and without waiting for the Duke of Mess to respond, he continued to say to Varis: "Start up the investigation into whether Bravos is really colluding with Targaryen. I am looking forward to carefully calculating the accounts with them."
"We only know that the remnants of Targaryen had lived in Bravos for a few years," Varys said, "but this is not enough to constitute evidence of their cooperation."
"Then keep investigating." Robert ordered.
"Donn wrote back and claimed that he could send an envoy to discuss the marriage, Your Majesty." The former Prime Minister Jon Elin said at this time: "They seem to be very sincere."
Upon hearing this, the bald king glanced at the young black-haired man who was listening silently at the end of the long table and said, "Then let them come, I want to see if the Dornese are really sincere or are making some tricks."
The imperial prime minister nodded after hearing this, and then said, "Earl Gero Grafson of Seagull Town arrives at King's Landing tomorrow, Your Majesty."
"You go and contact me first, and then let him come to see me when you think it's okay." Robert replied.
Lan Li, who had been listening silently, suddenly spoke: "I hope to be with Prime Minister Jon, Your Majesty, as the accuser, I think he should want to meet me."
After hearing this, Robert looked at the bald old man, and saw that he had not expressed his opinion, and said to Lanli: "Tomorrow you will go directly to Jon to see him."
Lan Li nodded and said nothing.
The meeting continued afterwards, and the people at the table talked about many things related to the seven countries, but only two could attract Renli.
The so-called wolf disaster mentioned earlier is one, and the church related later mentioned is another.
In the past two years, there have been rumors of wild wolves attacking peasant knights in Hejian. They are mainly concentrated in the area of the Frei family territory in Twin City, and it seems that the trouble is serious.
Lan Li had known this before, but because his intelligence system was relatively simple, he didn't know what it was. When he heard it, he realized that the cunning old marquis in Twin City was actually dead.
This incident surprised him because he was deeply impressed by the cunning old man who could still marry his wife in his seventies or eighties, but there were not many clues about the death of the man, and he didn't think much about it.
Relatively speaking, the church talked about at the imperial conference table made him even more concerned.
"Even the people of King Landing have learned that the remnants of Targaryen want to use the pagan forces to counterattack the Iron Throne, and the Archbishop still regards it as if he is unaware. Your Majesty, I think it is necessary for us to talk to the Archbishop."
"That fat man is greedy and might want to get some benefits from us."
"This matter is not just about the Iron Throne. What reason does he have to benefit?"
"Maybe he thinks that foreign pagans won't impact the status of the church?"
...
Obviously, the cooperation between Lanli and Mei Ge had already begun to show results, but it seemed that the effect was not strong. After listening silently for a while, Lanli couldn't help but think of the unreachable deal with the Seven Gods on his wrist.
So after the meeting, he took a team of guards to leave Red Fort and headed towards Junlin Steel Street.
The sound of horse hooves hit the ground clearly and loudly. The team of ten people riding horses was not very eye-catching, but it also made many pedestrians on the road avoid it. Lan Li, who led the way in front, wore a dark blue velvet top with gold edges and slim breeches. Her short black hair was neat and shiny. Her handsome face was still tender when she looked carefully. She looked at her handsome face, and she looked at her more playboys than the kingdom's officials.
More than half a month after arriving at King's Landing, Lan Li basically did not take a step forward from the Red Fort, so no one could know him, let alone anyone understand the personnel appointments in the Red Fort. However, while walking forward, Lan Li could still feel that there was some sight staring at him.
He didn't care about this.
King's land is no better than the river and bay. The forces of all parties are complicated, and it is normal for them to have many spies in secret.
But it's normal, but Lan Li couldn't let them keep staring at him, and he also had the ability to feel who these people who specifically pay attention to their existence.
So after walking for a while, he called the guards beside him and whispered a few instructions. The guards turned their horses and approached some special existences in the crowd.
"Sir, want to listen to a song?" One of the mustache disguised as a sloppy bard smiled guiltily when facing a strong guard approaching him. As a result, a whip that came towards him directly made him cover his face and wail. At the same time, several screams suddenly sounded around him, which attracted many people on the streets to pay attention.
However, the guards ignored the eyes of these people and continued to beat the horse whip in their hands. Until the targets were lying on the ground one by one, they rolled and howled and did not dare to get up. Then they turned around and guarded Renli and rode away.
So there was no eyeliner to stare at them again.
This behavior caused many unknown people to be indignant, and also caused some insiders to be secretly surprised. However, the person involved did not take it seriously. After taking the guards around Junlin City, he turned back to the Red Fort directly, as if he was just going out for a casual walk.
However, in fact, Renli was contacting his own people in the city.
With limited personnel under his command, he came to Junlin from Longshi Island, and he only brought twenty guards from the local Dragonstone Island.
However, this does not mean that Lan Li has no other people in the capital of the seven countries. In fact, the intelligence system he created over the past nine years is mainly gathered in this city.
Westeros is very large and has inconvenient transportation. It is very difficult to create an intelligence system with a wide coverage, but it is much easier to attack the capital of the seven countries under your feet.
After saving money for the past decade and actively participating in martial arts competitions held in Hewan, Lan Li basically spent all the money he received in the city of Junlin.
The effect is not only strong, but at least it is not a problem for him to understand the situation of some people in the king's land and the forces of all parties.
