Game of Thrones: I loaded the Witcher system
Chapter 246 No successor? Crazy monarch
Now the Tyrell family has reached the forefront.
Ever since the Tarth family messed up, the illusion of harmony created by their marriage to Renly has been completely shattered. Renly never spoke to Mamagaery Tyrell again, nor did he speak to her again. Did not meet Loras Tyrell.
Renly still needs the strength of the Tyrells, but no longer trusts them.
After all, Renly couldn't fake his orders and ask his vassals to intercept and kill Stannis's heirs.
The disgusting thing about the Tyrell family thing is that they did it, things turned upside down, and Renly had to deal with the aftermath for them.
Otherwise, what else can be done?
Did he fall out with the entire Tyrell family and the entire Reach because of this?
Renly could now see King's Landing's Red Keep from St. Baelor's Cathedral every morning. With such a close distance, he had to unite all the forces he could theoretically unite, and it was impossible to cut off his limbs.
But the impact of this incident is too bad. Although the war between nobles is often life and death, everyone still abides by certain rules on the surface.
For example, if you don't touch the other party's family, you can at most take them hostage and rarely harm their lives.
But this matter, in the eyes of outsiders, is that you, Renly, have violated the rules, and there is another point. Although Stannis is your enemy, he is still your biological brother, the missing Celine Byrne. Isn't Latheon your niece?
This is your family, how can you do it?
Who would dare to follow such a master with confidence and boldness?
What if one day something like this happens to my family?
Therefore, this matter was very disgusting. In order to unite the Tyrell family to help him fight for the throne, Renly had to choose to cover up the matter and make peace with it. He did not listen to the Tarth family's explanation and quickly completed the sentencing and punishment.
The nobles at the bottom didn't know how dirty the upper class was. They just thought that Renly Baratheon was mean and unkind. He didn't even let anyone say a word and directly put a big noble on trial.
Moreover, any normal person understands that without orders from above, who would dare to go beyond you, King Renly Baratheon, to attack Stannis's family members?
Apart from you, Renly Baratheon, who can mobilize the troops of House Tarth?
Despite Renly's extreme denial, even the reason for punishing the Tarth family was not for attacking Stannis's family, but for a very funny charge of failing to protect the defense area.
I don't know who he is trying to protect as a bodyguard.
The lower nobles could only sigh deeply about this matter, and their impression of Renly Baratheon became very bad. There was nothing more they could do.
After all, that is the family matter of the Baratheon family, so what reason do they have to talk more?
The nobles who have a little knowledge of the inside story understand that Renly's Baratheon family, and even the entire Stormlands in the future, have already fought with the biggest contributors in this war (if Renly can win), the Tyrell family. , resulting in irreparable cracks.
The Tyrell family planned this incident single-handedly, and by refusing to admit it at the end, they could easily stay out of the matter. Not only did they make Renly miserable, but they also made Stannis and Renly want to die.
This is forcing Renly not to compromise with Stannis, but to fight to the end. In order to realize their Tyrell family's ambition for the Iron Throne, they will do anything.
…
To some extent, they succeeded.
Because when Stannis, who was sitting on the Iron Throne, heard about the incident on Dragonstone, he immediately thought of his good brother Renly.
"How dare he! How dare he!"
Stannis couldn't believe it. He had never thought that Renly would attack his family before.
Before his eldest brother Robert left, although Renly mocked himself as a stinking stone, he was still very good to Celine.
Moreover, wars between men never harm women. This is also the tacit understanding between the two brothers since the war started.
But now, Stannis is once again paying the price for his self-righteousness.
As the sea minister of the entire Seven Kingdoms for a long time, Stannis is very aware of the naval power of the Seven Kingdoms.
Renly's side said it was pirates, and the rumors that leaked out were that Renly's vassals, the Tarth family, were responsible.
Of course Stannis knew who did it, so he was even more angry at Renly's refusal to admit it.
"I want to know where my daughter is! If Renly, that bastard, dares to attack Celine, I will cut off Renly's head to avenge my daughter!"
Stannis, who was sitting on the Iron Throne, slapped the armrest angrily, and accidentally cut his palm on the sharp blade on the Iron Throne. Blood immediately flowed out, but the gray-haired king seemed to have no feeling at all.
The bright red blood flows on the dark throne, and under the light of the candle, it has an eerie beauty.
"Go and find out! Ask Renly where my daughter is! Tell him that if he doesn't hand over my daughter, I will fight him to the death, and then burn this sinful place to the ground!"
Stannis roared angrily at the loyal nobles who stood in the throne room.
The nobles below were silent. They had never seen Stannis like this.
Although the former King Stannis had a bad temper and was as stubborn as a stone, he did not easily get angry at others. Just the look on his face that could freeze people was enough to make the people below him afraid.
But this time, Stannis was truly furious.
His daughter Celine can be said to be his only weakness. He is not a womanizer, he does not hesitate to spend money, and all he wants is the throne.
Such a person is terrible because you can't take advantage of him.
But now, someone has offended him. It would be strange for him not to be angry. After all, he is his only heir.
He has told his men more than once that if something unexpected happens to him, he wants them to assist Celine Baratheon in ascending the throne.
But now, this last hope has been killed. So what if Stannis wins the throne?
Decades later, he died alone on the Iron Throne, just like the tyrant Maegor I, who immediately handed over the kingdom he had sacrificed for after his death.
I beat him back and forth, and I don't know how much blood was shed, but in the end it was all in vain.
Therefore, Stannis's only hope now is that Celine was just kidnapped by Renly. As long as he can find a way to get her back, there is hope for everything.
Looking at the vassals below who were looking at each other with no one moving, the blood from the wounds on their hands wetted their robes, making the furious Stannis become crazy and terrifying.
"Go quickly!"
Stannis roared again. This time, no one wanted to get into Stannis' trouble here. They looked at each other and filed away.
I don't know who it was, but when walking out of the throne room door, he said quietly:
"Our Majesty really looks like a mad king..."
Hearing these words, who didn't know who said it, everyone turned around and saw the panting figure leaning on the Iron Throne on the high throne through the long hall filled with candlelight.
Somehow, the elderly nobles slowly put everything in front of them together with a figure that was here more than ten years ago.
Lonely, desperate, angry, crazy.
Chilling.
…
After the news of Dragonstone reached King's Landing, the brutal bloody battle that originally took place on the Long Street of King's Landing suddenly stopped.
Renly Baratheon issued an order to stop all attacks on the front line, and the army retreated a certain distance back, abandoning the occupied neighborhoods.
Facing the angry Tyrell family, Renly stared at them coldly and said nothing.
Later, these guys felt guilty and resigned in embarrassment, leaving only Renly's Rainbow Guard to protect the self-proclaimed King of the Seven Kingdoms.
The same loneliness, no one can believe, no one can tell.
…
"What should I do, my lords, do we really follow what Lord Stannis said, and we send people to negotiate with Renly?"
The adults who came out of the throne room came to the Hand's Tower, which was Tywin Lannister's favorite place, to discuss countermeasures.
This is not a good thing.
Obviously, if Renly did this, it meant that Renly had Stannis's only heir in his arms.
How big are their faces? Can Renly make friends with him just by going there?
I'm afraid the only way is to give up the Iron Throne, His Majesty Stannis to take off the crown, kneel down and surrender.
Another possibility is that the person is not in Renly's hands at all, so it is useless for them to go. After all, Renly will not be transformed into a living person.
In the last case, Princess Celine has already encountered something unexpected. If that's the case...
It doesn't seem impossible to change my allegiance to another Baratheon.
This kind of thought is tacit in everyone's mind.
It's very simple. If the boss you follow has no descendants, it means that this small group has no future. Who will hang out with you?
In the past, Celine Baratheon was still around. Although everyone knew that this little girl was suffering from greyscale, she was still the flesh and blood of Stannis, so everyone accepted her.
But that's not the case now. If Celine Baratheon is really gone, then don't blame the people below for having other thoughts.
"Then what can we do? We are now the vassals of His Majesty Stannis. It is only natural to rescue Princess Celine. If the princess goes to see the gods, she will be pure, but now, we have to go."
A clear-headed nobleman spoke up.
Now Stannis is extremely sensitive. He also knows that without an heir, his crown as a king will be on the rocks. He is not in his twenties.
Now, he has been fighting for half his life and is almost an old man. It is unrealistic to expect him to have another child.
If they don't stop whining at this juncture, Stannis will immediately understand what they are thinking. With the crazy look in the throne room today, what if they really imitate the Mad King and kill them?
This is not impossible. With Renly's army besieging him outside and no successor inside, it's not surprising that Stannis can do anything.
For a person like him who has a stubborn personality and accepts death, another explanation is that he has an extreme personality. Once he really realizes that everyone is betraying his family, it is impossible to say that the Red Castle may become the brightest candle in the night sky.
Since I, Stannis Baratheon, cannot protect my brother's throne, then neither can you!
This is a very good presumptive logic.
"Well, if that's the case, then everyone should act quickly. We'll see what the next step is after communicating with Renly."
