From Witcher to Lord of the Empire

Chapter 148 Shocked! Rann Actually...

Faced with the heir's sudden interruption, Wizmir II reprimanded him for his behavior, reprimanded him for his rudeness, and said in front of Lan that he would go back and punish him.

The only thing is that Radovid's proposal was not really denied.

Lan En looked at the father and son, and couldn't tell for a while whether the words just now were the true feelings of the little bald head, or the bloody words spoken by his father, King Vizmir II, through his son's tone.

Later generations said that the cruel character of the little bald head was well trained by his teacher, but it is hard to say what is part of Vizmir II who can throw the little bald head to that kind of teacher and approve of that kind of education method.

At least Lane was now able to glimpse the tip of the iceberg of the future title of King Radovid V, "The Heart of Stone".

In such a weird atmosphere, Lann repeatedly helped Radovid plead guilty to his father, persuaded Tong Yanwuji, and at the same time promised that he would properly handle the Everec family.

After Vizmir II reprimanded his son, he was very pleased with Lane's promise, and at the same time gave him some help.

He handed Lan a coat of arms engraved with an eagle, and said: "Novigrad is the founding place of the 'Eternal Fire', this religion has not spread to Sintra so you may not have heard of it, but he is in the north All countries have a lot of influence. I have given them a lot of funding, you can take my coat of arms to find their security officer Chapelle, and he will help you."

With extra help, Lan can do nothing, he took the coat of arms, and then left.

After he walked away, Vizmir II waved his hand, and the knights who were guarding the house also left one after another. Immediately, only the king, the prince and his son were left in the room.

After holding back for a long time, Radovid immediately asked Vizmir II after Lane left:

"Father, why are you being so polite to that Lannister? If you want Sintra, why don't you let me marry their Princess Sirilla?"

Faced with his child's political problems, Vizmir II, who cared about training, answered patiently: "It's too late, Princess Sirilla has been hidden by Lannister, and Lannis is actually in power in Cintra now. Te. My chief of intelligence told me that Foltest seems to have the idea of ​​marrying Cirila. I have been worried that he will be one step ahead of me, but judging from Lannister's attitude towards Temeria now, we all slow."

Radovid still didn't understand, he continued to ask: "Then...we can kill Lannister and then find Cirila, isn't that okay?"

The king shook his head and tried to persuade the prince: "You still don't understand, Radovid, now Sirilla is not important. The one in power is Lannister, who is also a royal family with the blood of a lion."

"But he's a witcher, and he never hides it, and a witcher can't have children. The power of Cintra belongs to Cyrilla after all."

The king still shook his head and said: "You have also seen the battle report I received recently. Everyone in Sintra has seen that Lannister, received Lannister's favor, and seen Lannister on the battlefield. It looks like one enemy is one hundred, but no one has seen Princess Sirila, do you know what that means?"

The prince gradually caught up with the king's train of thought, and he said intermittently: "It means that Lannister's reputation is in full swing; and Sirila's absence means that she disappeared...she died?"

The king shook his head, and the prince continued to think. Suddenly, he had a flash of inspiration and blurted out: "No one has seen Cirila, which means... everyone can be Cirila?"

The king looked at his son with relief and said: "If you want to plot against Sintra, it is actually the best time when its capital has just been destroyed. At that time, our people only need to appear near Sintra and claim that they have captured Sirila—whether it’s real or not—then get a bargaining chip. Even if other northern forces do not recognize the identity of the false princess, we can weaken the authority of the real princess and increase convenience in the future. But now It's too late."

The king shook his head, indicating that he had really thought about this tactic. Then he raised the rim of the glass and signaled his son to pour himself another glass of wine: "Do you know what Lannister is called in the north now? Lion! And what about Sirila? Lion cub!

So what if the lion cubs disappear? Now the entire Sintra, and even the entire northern border, have reached a consensus that as long as the "lion" is still there, nothing will happen to the "cub". Even if you kill Cirila today, there will be another Cirila next to him immediately tomorrow. I even doubt that the current Cirila is no longer the real Cirila!

Lannister is sterile, but that doesn't matter now; he can't be king of Cintra, but the king of Cintra can't get around him. He is a lion! The leader who rescued the people from the fire and water in the midst of the destruction of the country, the resurrected person who climbed back from the death, and the devotee who transformed himself into a barren demon hunter in order to protect the country and the princess! He said that whoever is Sirila is Sirila, and he is now the most authoritative notary of lion blood on the entire continent! "

Looking at his shocked son, the king looked serious: "I don't know how long Lannister has been plotting for all this, or he actually did it unintentionally, but it doesn't matter now. He is now Cintra's Those who are actually in power, if we want to unite with Sintra, we can only talk to Lannister."

…………

On the other side, Lann, who had no idea that he had received such a high evaluation from King Redania, was walking back.

The authorities are obsessed, but the bystanders are clear. As a person who experienced many things, Lan himself may feel nothing, but in the eyes of the bystanders, he has already entered the political stage of the northern border, and holds an important political bargaining chip.

At the moment, our lion has no political issues in mind, and only intends to see how his attendants have dissected the dragonfly monster.

Turning around a corner ahead, Lan saw a big man in a bright silk coat. He clasped his hands on his chest, looking at the scenery outside the window leisurely.

His shoulders were stiff and motionless, and on top of him stood a large gray owl.

Perhaps hearing Lan's footsteps, the owl suddenly turned its head 180 degrees, attracting the big man's attention.

Whoops, Fatty Di, it's you two again.

Lan En thought to himself, and couldn't help but think of the "nickname" that the players in the previous life had for Dijkstra, and still greeted Dijkstra politely:

"Earl Dijkstra, I didn't expect to meet you here again."

When Lane was speaking, the owl's head changed from 180 degrees back to zero with Dijkstra's turn, and its eyes looked at Lane without moving.

And Lann also responded with interest, as if he was really interested in birds of prey.

Dijkstra was worried that Lann would speak out again, so he took the first step and said, "Earl Lannister, I have been waiting for a long time. Let me take you back to your residence. In addition, my friend entrusted me with something. Communicate with you."

Lan En raised his eyebrows: "I would like to hear more about it."

The two walked in the Bull Castle Academy, one was a tall blond young man wearing a gorgeous robe for meeting the king; the other was a fat and giant man about the height of a sculpture, wearing brightly colored clothes. Such a strange combination is not very eye-catching in Niubao.

Students wandered through the alleys, intently reading tomes and parchment manuscripts; many sat on benches, lawns, and flower beds, discussing their homework, or playing "odd or odd" discreetly. Even numbers” and other brain games; professors roam the neighborhood, eagerly arguing about academic issues without losing manners and style; young teaching assistants hang around with their eyes fixed on the rears of schoolgirls.

A fresh breeze blows from the delta, bringing a faint smell of sea water, and a slightly stronger smell of hydrogen sulfide comes from the alchemy department building towering over the canal. Grey-and-yellow linnets chirped in the bushes of the park next door to the student dormitories, and an orangutan sat in a poplar tree, no doubt escaped from the natural history department's zoo. from.

In such a free and full of academic atmosphere, Lane and Dijkstra talked about political topics in a down-to-earth manner, pretending to be false.

"I heard Lord Lannister met a pair of our Redanian soldiers on the canal in the Delta?"

Lan En nodded and said seriously: "They fought bravely and died in the mouth of the dragonfly monster in order to protect the people on the transport ship. I hunted one of them and is dissecting it. Do you want to come and observe it together?"

Dijkstra paused after hearing Lane's words, his footsteps were steady, and his expression remained unchanged, but for a moment he even forgot what he was going to say next, and his emotions became a little incoherent for a moment.

But the intelligence leader quickly adjusted his status, and continued: "Then they can be regarded as atonement for themselves, because I heard that they accepted the employment of a warlock to harm Earl Lannister. I originally They planned to hang them, but now it seems that they saved their reputation with sacrifice first."

Lan En sighed and said with emotion: "I also heard about this from them. It seems to be a warlock named 'Riens', but the dead are the most important, so I can't blame them anymore."

Dijkstra said: "Then doesn't Earl Lannister want to know why this Rinser is looking for you?"

Lann showed a look of interest: "I don't know what advice Earl Dijkstra has?"

Dijkstra shook his head: "I don't know much information, but I know who will know. I don't know if the Earl has heard of this name--Dandrian. As far as I know, Reins has also approached him before. This man, and he miraculously escaped. If you want to know information about Riens, you must go to this Dandelion."

Lane nodded: "I don't know why Earl Dijkstra did me such a favor? You can pretend that you don't know anything. Could it be His Majesty's order?"

Dijkstra nodded: "His Majesty the King wants to unite with Sintra, so I naturally want to help. At the same time, I also want to establish a personal friendship with you. When the time is right, I have a friend who wants to introduce you. At that time Sure to surprise Lord Lannister."

a friend? surprise?

Lan looked at Dijkstra's eyes without squinting, but he couldn't get rid of the gray owl staring at him from the corner of his vision.

The expression management was adjusted again, and Lan gratefully held Dijkstra's hand, and said happily: "I thought we were already friends, thank you for your help, Earl Dijkstra."

The two looked at each other and smiled, the scene was really meeting each other and hating each other.
