In order not to get lost again, Linn planned to go east along the Red Fork River, wait until he reached the King's Road near Harrenhal, and then go all the way south to King's Landing!
Even though it would be a long way to go, he would never get lost. He praised his own wit!
After three days of walking from dawn to dusk, he had walked on the King's Road, crossed Harrenhal, and arrived at the Lake of the God's Eye.
He pitched his tent by the lake,
A bonfire was lit under the quiet moonlight,
Then, just lie by the lake and look at the stars in the night sky,
The bloody comet in the sky is still there
"Come out! Your breathing makes my head spin!" Linn shouted,
A woman slowly walked out of the forest behind her. She was dressed in red and her hair was copper red. She was as dazzling as the bonfire beside her.
Seven or eight guards followed her, not taking a step forward, but their eyes were always fixed on Linn, as if they were judging whether he was in danger.
The woman walked in and stared at Lin En with her burgundy eyes, as if looking at some treasure.
"It's so strange that I can't see your future. It's as if you are in front of me and yet you never existed!"
The woman in red robe got closer and closer, and gently touched Lin En's face with her hands. She was so excited that she even stared into his eyes, face to face.
"Everyone has his destiny. Under the gaze of God, why do you only see chaos in your eyes?"
Lin En could clearly see her fair skin, heart-shaped face and burgundy eyes.
"If you don't get up, I'll think you're seducing me!"
The red-robed woman smiled charmingly,
"Maybe it was meant to be!"
Lin En put his arms around her slender waist and kissed her all the way into her arms.
The red-robed woman swung her waist and slipped out of his arms like a snake.
"Not today! I still need to go on my way. What's your name? Maybe when I'm free, I'll give you a surprise!"
"My name is Hot Pie. You can find me in King's Landing."
Lin En looked like a nymphomaniac until the red-robed woman and her guards walked away.
"This kind of magic stick is the most troublesome, so don't come to me! If you accidentally drop the necklace when you are having fun, I'm afraid that something will happen to me!"
Lin En recognized this woman and remembered watching a short video before. This woman was stunning and charming in every way. It was at the end of the video when she took off her necklace that Lin En greeted the UP owner’s family!
…
King's Landing, the Royal Council Hall of the Red Keep,
Cersei is very proud. Since Joffrey came to the throne, no one here has violated her opinions in the slightest, and every order she has made has been implemented.
The feeling of the whole kingdom rotating at her command is intoxicating!
Grand Maester Pycelle said respectfully, "The Maesters of the Seven Kingdoms issued a statement that the long summer has ended, and the long winter that lasts for an unknown number of years will follow."
Genos, the leader of the golden robes, continued: "There is not much food left, and the city is full of refugees fleeing the war. With the coming of winter, the situation will become more serious."
Cersei interrupted him easily, "You are the commander of the City Guard appointed by me to drive out the refugees in the city. You should stay wherever you are!"
"Yes!" Genos nodded and accepted the order without any hesitation, as if he didn't know that this order would cause many people to die.
"Long time no see, my sister!" A voice that made Cersei annoying sounded. The dwarf opened the door and whistled into the conference hall.
She hated this dwarf and did not hide it at all. From the moment he appeared, the joy on her face quickly turned to ice.
"What are you doing here? This is a royal meeting!"
Tyrion seemed not to notice her displeasure, and sat in the empty seat of the chief minister, the Prime Minister of the Kingdom, minding his own business, poured himself a glass of wine, and said:
"Of course, but the Prime Minister of the Kingdom, the King's Hand should have the right to participate in any meeting!" He said, taking out an appointment letter from his arms.
…
After Tyrion left, when the palace attendants cleaned up the meeting hall, they found that there was no completed glass product here!
As soon as the little devil returned to King's Landing, he started his job as Prime Minister of his country. The first thing he had to do was to completely control the garrison, not the idiot mother and son!
Soon, Janos, the commander of the City Guard, was imprisoned by Tyrion on the existing crime of killing innocent babies.
This incident was originally seen by everyone, and not all at once, but in many cases. Babies, children, teenagers, and the golden robes showed their violence unabashedly in front of everyone in King's Landing.
All this violence has a name, the Queen Mother’s order!
So when Tyrion sent Janos to the Great Wall, he also bought the favor of the people in the capital. Of course, this is what he thought!
In fact, the people in the capital "affectionately" call him "Magic Monkey!"
As Tyrion gains more and more real power in King's Landing and prepares for war,
Linn walked into the Gate of the Gods in King's Landing City,
King's Landing is a huge, almost square city that can accommodate nearly a million people. It is surrounded by water on two sides, with the ocean of Blackwater Bay on one side and the Blackwater River on the other. The Royal Palace and the Red Keep are in the northwest corner of the city, on the cliff where the two rivers meet.
above,
Directly opposite the Red Keep is a long avenue that diagonally divides King's Landing into two triangles. This avenue is the King's Road that connects the north and south of Westeros.
There are seven gates in King's Landing. The gate leading to the King's Road is called the Gate of the Gods.
On this day, a tall and majestic figure walked into the Gods Gate. The people of Junlin were considered well-informed, but someone so tall was still very eye-catching!
This person is none other than Lin En.
After entering the city gate, walking in the familiar Shoemaker's Square, the scene in front of me merged into my memory bit by bit.
"King's Landing still hasn't changed!" Lin En sighed, "It's still so dirty and smelly!"
When people in this world design cities, they basically don’t consider sewage and drainage issues. This means that domestic garbage and sewage have nowhere to discharge. In addition, civilians have no awareness of hygiene, and people only have the only way to deal with excrement.
There are two types. The first one is to bury it on the spot, but this method is generally only applicable in rural areas. The other method is to dump it at will!
So you can imagine what it feels like to walk on such a street, the tangy smell, and the sticky feeling on your feet!
Lin En even hated that his perception was far beyond that of ordinary people. This was simply torture!
And you have to be careful at all times as bombs rain down from the upper floors on both sides!
He turned off his sense of smell, tried his best to ignore it, and walked to Steel Street, the street where he originally worked as a blacksmith's apprentice.
From his memory, he learned that it was a kind man who paid the apprenticeship fee for him, and he became the apprentice of Tob Mott, the most famous blacksmith on this street, and he studied for many years.
Linn walked to the door of the blacksmith shop and immediately saw the Tob Mott who sold himself to the night watchman. He walked straight over, grabbed it with his big hand, picked it up and walked to the back room, completely ignoring the few apprentices in the shop.
Eyes wide open in surprise.
"Warrior, I have money, don't do anything!" Tob Mot, who was pinned in the air, struggled and cried, but the big steel-bar-like hand on his neck gently suppressed all his sounds and struggles.
"I'm asking, please don't say any more nonsense!" came a voice. He nodded hurriedly and pointed at his neck. As soon as the pressure was released, it fell to the ground with a "plop".
I breathed the fresh air fiercely like a dying fish. When I looked back, I almost stopped breathing!
"Gendry?"
"No, no, Gendry is not as powerful as you. You must be Gendry's brother, right?"
Tob flattered with a smile on his face,
I am not sure if this master I have lived with for many years is actually me. It seems that I have indeed changed a lot during this period.
Linn did not answer his words and asked: "Where is Gendry?"
Taob said with a wry smile, "Several groups of people have come to ask about his whereabouts during this period, but I really don't know. He has followed the night watchman northward!"
"How much do you know about Gendry's life experience?"
"Back then, someone gave me double the apprenticeship fee, so I accepted him. I really don't know his original life experience!"
Lin En stared at him coldly and asked: "You must have said this kind of thing countless times! I hope I can hear something different, even if it is your guess!"
After listening to this, Tob looked at Lin En's face carefully, and then said hesitantly: "Sir, although I really don't know his life experience, but some time ago, the golden robes were all over the city killing people, mostly babies and children.
During that time, the golden robe came to ask about Gendry's whereabouts, so the two things may be related in some way!"
After finishing speaking, Taobu hurriedly continued: "Of course, this is just a guess! Maybe those golden robes know better!"
After Lin En heard what he said, he knew that any further questions would be in vain, but the golden robe was indeed a better direction for investigation.
The Golden Robes are the City Guards, the only permanent force in the royal city. They are so named because they often wear golden chain armor outside.
But its reputation is equally obvious, including corruption, bribery, arbitrary charging of fees, bullying, and even some more serious things!
Where is their station? Linn thought for a while and walked on the street again.
After passing the Steel Level, we walked to the intersection of the Alchemist Guild and Baelor Cathedral. This is the center of King's Landing with the densest flow of people. Several streets intersect here. The only benefit of this design is congestion!
So, this is simply an idiot’s design!
Lin En squeezed through the intersection and turned into an alley. At the end of the alley, he saw several military camps guarded by golden robes.
Is it convenient to set up the military camp here so that you can collect arbitrary charges when you come out?
He found a small alley that no one passed by, hid in it, and waited quietly.
"As long as I quietly ambush here, wait until their leader suddenly appears when he passes by, and then tie him up and torture him! This matter! It should be done!"
Ten minutes later, the two men in golden robes went out and glanced at them casually as they passed by the alley. Then they were suddenly startled. They saw a tall man standing carelessly in the alley, staring at them.
Not a good person!
"What are you doing?" Jinpaozi drew out his sword and asked tremblingly. As soon as he said the words, a strong wind blew up, his vision went dark, and he fell unconscious.
The last thing I saw was a pair of white teeth and a huge iron fist!
Lin En had been waiting for more than two hours. It was almost dark and the leader of the golden robe had not been seen, so he was a little impatient.
Just when Lin En was about to leave, a man in more than a dozen gold robes walked out,
Lin En's eyes lit up, "Here we come!"
The mercenary Bronn is very proud of himself these days. After following Tyrion to King's Landing, he actually became the commander of the Capital Guard in less than a few days!
Of course, he used to call them Golden Robe, but now that he is in charge, he can no longer call himself that.
He knew very well Tyrion's purpose for letting him take office. Stannis was coming soon, and the defenders of King's Landing only had this few capital garrison troops, six thousand in number, and they were all dregs with no fighting power!
If you want to rely on them to defend the city, you may have to run faster than the civilians.
My task is to intimidate them, induce them, or even lead them to visit Lord Littlefinger's store in the shortest possible time. In short, I want them to stand on the city wall when the time comes.
At the same time, he has to constantly recruit new mercenaries. There is no limit to the number of mercenaries and there is no limit to their force, as long as they can fight with a sword.
Bronn likes these jobs very much, especially because there is so much oil and water in them that he can work hard for them!
He spent the day gambling and bragging in the camp today, and was about to take them to Lord Littlefinger's shop to have some fun and bond with his colleagues.
As soon as I left the gate of the military camp and walked halfway, when I passed an alley, I suddenly felt something was wrong. I had already walked past and turned back to take a look.
Seeing this, Bronn almost slapped himself in regret.
He saw a familiar tall figure in the alley, grinning at him!
Bronn didn't feel very happy, and even felt his body tense up. This face was so familiar, especially during the last few days at Harrenhal, he could sometimes dream about it!
Recalling the violent strength and exaggerated performance, Bronn was sure that even if he wore the thickest armor, he would not be able to block Linn's blow.
I swallowed and wanted to run away, but I didn't dare!
It was obvious that they were here to find him, as evidenced by the more than twenty golden robes walking all over the place deep in the alley!
I could only ask my companion not to move, and then I slowly moved over.
Before he could reach Lin En, he hugged his shoulders and laughed:
"Bronn, I didn't expect you to be the leader of the Golden Robe now!"
Bronn felt a little relieved, "How did you get to King's Landing? And the Lannister has no intention of arresting you!"
Linn waved his hand, "That's good, but I don't care if he is looking for me. I'm here to ask you to help investigate a little thing! As a friend, this should be simple!"
After saying that, he patted Bronn on the shoulder enthusiastically!
Bronn almost vomited blood for fear of him, so he hurriedly replied: "No matter what, if I can help, just say it!"
Lin happily told him that she wanted to ask him to help investigate the inside story of the Golden Robe killing children some time ago, and the reason why they were chasing a blacksmith named Gendry!
Bronn promised that it would be a trivial matter, not to mention that he was now the leader of the Golden Robes. Even if he was not, he would help Lin En investigate clearly, and then leave quickly and leave!
Until he disappeared without a trace, Bronn never asked about the life and death of the more than twenty golden robes in the alley!
