Game of Thrones: Royal Game

Chapter 234 Renly and Hundred Blossoms

King's Landing
"You shouldn't have made things so stiff, do you know the look on my brother's face after you left the throne room like that that day?" Renly Baratheon was shirtless, letting Loras smear on his chest Foam.

"That's my father! I can't stay there without my father!" The Knight of Flowers frowned in a low voice, shaving Renly's chest hair with a razor, "And you know, the king's decision is very important to us What a shame."

"The king's decision," Renly emphasized, "as far as my brother's character is concerned, I think his tone has given you enough respect. Know how the 'mad king' Aerys II responded to Tywin's comments about Cersei and Prince Rhaegar's marriage request?"

"Tywin," Renly imitated the tone of his imaginary Aerys II, "you are a good servant, but there are still distinctions between servants and masters, you want your daughter to marry me Son, go dreaming, ouch, what are you doing?" Renly yelled when Loras suddenly scratched him with the razor.

"And the end of the story? Why don't you finish the story? How did Tywin Lannister respond to Aerys II's humiliation? His son Jaime killed Aerys II himself, and he Sending Gregor Kerry, 'The Mountain', to slay all the Targaryen's heirs."

"Are you threatening?"

"I'm just reminding, if Aerys II didn't humiliate Tywin back then, but agreed to Rhaegar and Cersei's marriage, would your brother still have won the iron chair? If he stood by Targaryen's side It's not the weak Dorne but the lion of the Westlands, will that dynasty still fall?" Loras said, pressing a finger on Renly's wound, bringing a smear of blood red.

"Look at this," he stretched his fingers in front of Renly's eyes, "the Targaryen, who has always been regarded as a god in Westeros because of silver hair and purple eyes, will be destroyed because of a wrong marriage decision. How dare you choose a powerless little noble in the north and reject our Tyrell family?"

"Loras, you are very strange today, this is not the way you used to speak." Renly asked puzzled.

"Yes," Loras realized that he was indeed a little excited, but he didn't intend to admit that the person taught him these words, he just looked Serly into Renly's eyes, "Don't change the subject."

"Okay, so what on earth are you trying to say?" Renly spread his hands, "I know it's a stupid decision to refuse a marriage with Tyrell, but it's my elder brother, the king, who made the decision, you always Can't expect me to talk him out of that 'Lyanna'?"

"Everyone knows that this is a dream. No one can change what Robert has decided. The only person in the world who can barely control him, Jon Arryn, is dead, and the other Eddie who can barely persuade him to change his mind The Starks are thousands of miles away." Renly went on, "If I were king, I'd promise to marry a Tyrell to keep you happy, but what?"

"Yes," Loras interrupted Renly, "if only you were king."

"What?" Renly froze for a moment, and then his whole body tensed up. "What nonsense are you talking about, the king is my elder brother!"

"Your elder brother is obese, alcoholic, sexually promiscuous, and not young. On the contrary, you are young and healthy."

"My elder brother has two sons and a daughter."

"Two sons who have been sent to the Great Wall to be the night watchmen. Even whether they are the sons of the king is doubtful, of course it doesn't matter, because the Great Wall has fallen, Castle Black has become a camp of wildlings, do you think Would the wildlings let them live?
And Myrcella, Myrcella was sent to be a nun at St Baelor's Cathedral, it's a waste, no matter who her father is, she's Cersei Lannister's daughter can't be wrong, wait for us After the army of the lords conquered Casterly Rock and wiped out the Lannisters, whoever married Myrcella would get Casterly Rock.

If you become king, would you mind marrying Myrcella to my brother Garland?He is the second son, and cannot inherit Highgarden, and Casterly Rock will be a suitable compensation."

"Damn it, what medicine did you take wrong today? What are you talking about?" Renly finally couldn't help it.

"Renly Baratheon!" Loras called out Renly's name suddenly. "You are now Robert's rightful heir!"

Renly was momentarily overwhelmed by the Knight of Flowers' aura, and it was a long time before he spoke.

"What did you selectively ignore?" He asked, "Stannis! My second brother, he has a higher inheritance right than me in legal terms, and now he has become the commander-in-chief of the royal army. , honor, respect and love!"

"Respect, everyone respects him, I admit that, but love? Can this word have something to do with Stannis? Don't be kidding!" Loras laughed, half because 'Stannis is loved' Part of the joke is that Renly mentioned Stannis as a hindrance.

One thing only has the problem of how to do it when it needs to be done. When Renly mentioned Stannis, it means that his ambition to be a king has been provoked.

"And, the royal army." Loras continued, "What is the main force of the royal army now? The main force of the riverlands has been destroyed, the northern army is fighting against the wildlings, and the knights of the valley are not bleeding.
The main forces of the Royal Army are your Stormland army and our Reach army!Without the nod from you and our family, no one can be the commander of the royal army! "

"You have selectively ignored my elder brother again this time, don't you think that what I said in front of the nobles in the Storm Land is more effective than my elder brother's?"

"We're talking about your rivalry with Stannis for the throne, so the premise of this dispute must be that King Robert is no more."

"Then let's talk about it when the time comes. Although he has a lot of bad habits, in my opinion, it is not a problem for him to live another ten years casually. It is too early to think about these things now," Renly shook his head, "Now let us Do business first."

"No no," Loras pushed away Renly who came up, "I think there are some things we should prepare as soon as possible."

"What?" Renly suddenly realized something at this moment, "You bastards don't want to do something to my brother, do you? How dare you? I warn you."

"Brother? Do you have anything to do with me?" Lyanna suddenly saw Lorraine, who was walking towards her, as she walked through a corridor in the Red Castle.

"I discovered some unusual phenomena," Lorraine said in a low voice. "I now suspect that there are other players behind the Tyrell family."
