Game of Thrones: I am Dothraki, not a barbarian

Chapter 52 Seeds of Doubt
Renly's face fell when he heard this, but Littlefinger seemed not to notice and smiled.

"With the union of the Baratheon and Tyrell bloodlines, your child will inherit Storm's End and even be recorded in the 'Genealogy and History of the Principal Nobles of the Seven Kingdoms.' This is a momentous event that will be remembered for eternity!"

Littlefinger's seemingly casual words reminded Renly of Jon Arryn.

After consulting the book "Pedigrees and Histories of the Principal Nobles of the Seven Kingdoms", he discovered that Robert's three children were the products of Cersei and Jaime's infidelity, and they died soon after.

Initially, it was Stannis who told Jon Arryn about this suspicion, so when Jon died, Stannis was so scared that he ran back to Dragonstone and never showed up again.

Moreover, Eddard Stark has already found this book in Jon Arryn's room, so he is probably not far from the truth.

I'm afraid his ending will not be better than Jon's.

The reason why Renly supported Robert in launching the war was that he wanted to gain credit.

Joffrey and Tommen are not of legitimate blood and cannot inherit the Iron Throne. He has both bloodline and merit, as well as a good reputation accumulated over a long period of time, so he can have an absolute advantage.

And Robert has always favored his third brother rather than his second brother Stannis.

During the Rebellion of the Usurper, Stannis held out for Storm's End for months, running out of ammunition and food and almost starving to death. His contribution was much greater than his, but Robert gave Dragonstone to Stannis and Storm's End to him.

Robert's dislike for Targaryens is well known. The heirs of the Targaryen family are usually sealed on Dragonstone. However, Storm's End is the birthplace of the Baratheon family and the symbol of the new dynasty's heir.

But what are the Tyrells' motives?
Even if you support him as king,
They can't get more.

As princes, their path to advancement has come to an end, unless they seek to seize the throne of king.

How to seize?

Of course, it was to have a Baratheon child, but he was a gay and liked men, so it was impossible for the two of them to have children. So if Margaery became pregnant, he would definitely not survive.

They were well aware of his close relationship with Loras, and the de facto alliance had already been established, so they were anxious for him to marry Margaery.

What if all they really wanted was an heir with the Baratheon title, even if they sacrificed two siblings and paid such a high price?
Isn't he wearing a big green hat?
To cover up the truth, just like Cersei Lannister murdered Jon, the only option is to let him die!
He didn't want to think of Tyrell as such a dark person, but after so many years in King's Landing, he had seen things ten times darker than this. Jon Arryn didn't think so, but now there was grass growing on his grave.

Littlefinger looked at Renly pretending to be indifferent, and the corners of his mouth rose slightly.

Although Renly appears to be elegant, he is actually suspicious and sensitive in his heart. Once the seeds of doubt are planted, they will slowly take root and sprout, and eventually grow into towering trees.

The Duke's psychology is easy to guess, and he, Petyr Baelish, is the one in control of the situation.

No matter who sits on the Iron Throne, chaos will continue, and in turmoil, men like him will always find opportunities.

...

Renly hurriedly said goodbye to Littlefinger and returned to his residence, his heart in a turmoil.

Loras Tyrell was sitting in a chair, wiping his sword with a piece of sheepskin dipped in grease.
His sword was already thirsting for life, as if it could cut off Rahalo's neck with one blow.

"Loras," Renly said, his voice gentle as always, but with a hidden meaning, "I have a question for you."

Loras brushed his hair back, raised his head, and said with a smile, "What is it, my Lord Renly?"

"Your family is so anxious to marry Margaery to me. Do you want me to be king, or is there some other reason?"

Even the blacksmith at Castle Black could see through Renly's character at a glance, but Loras, his bedmate, couldn't.

The three Tyrell brothers are all very upright and never think the worst of others. They are also blinded by love. In addition, Renly is a great actor, so Loras's world is full of love, but Renly's world is full of desire.

Loras didn't notice his probing at all. He put down his sword and smiled, "Of course, it's to support you becoming king. Margaery will be your queen. This will benefit the future of both our families."

Renly repeated, "The future..."

If you lose something, everyone looks like a thief. If you don’t have an heir, what is the future?

"Renly, what are you thinking about?" Loras' voice brought him out of his thoughts.

Renly smiled slightly and whispered, "Nothing, just trying to figure out a problem."

He walked to the window and stared out at the night scene.

If he inherits the Iron Throne, he must win over the Tyrell family, and his marriage to Margaery is a key step. He previously wanted to give Margaery to Robert in order to get Robert to depose Cersei, and the Tyrell family also agreed.

This shows that the Tyrell family has great ambitions.

But no matter what their real purpose was, he could not give up this marriage.

After the wedding, he will finally sit on the Iron Throne with the power of the Tyrell family.

Pretending to be kind all your life is true kindness, but he doesn't have that kind of patience.

Then the Tyrells will know that King Renly has seen through their disguise, and his anger will not be extinguished so easily!
...

Along the coast of Westeros, countless riders are searching for the Dothraki. Stannis claims to be sick in bed, and Robert is furious, but Harold's sixty ships have already sailed on the sea.

The sails are fluttering, the bow cuts through the white waves, and we move forward bravely on this blue grassland.

There was silence on the sea. As the morning light began to appear, the skyline turned from dark blue to crimson, and the Dothraki began their sacrifice.

When the first ray of sunlight appeared above the sea, all the warriors knelt down, looked towards the east, and raised their hands high as if holding up the sun.

Countless dead khals and warriors rode on burning horses across the land of stars, and in the morning they turned into blazing suns to nourish the grasslands, and turned into energy for the warriors, endlessly.

"Jonak Durado! Haras! The great horse god! Our lord!"

Shouts echoed across the sea.

After standing up, the warriors began to dance a war dance, rhythmically hitting their chests, upper arms, and thighs with their fists, waving their whips, and stomping their boots on the deck. Their movements were in perfect unison, and their passionate war cries resounded through the sky.

The dance ended, and a black warhorse was pulled to the center of the deck. The warriors gathered around it, silently chanting prayers.

Laharo walked towards the warhorse with a scimitar in hand, gently stroked the horse's head, and whispered a few words to it. Then the knife flashed, blood splattered, and the warhorse fell to the deck with a neigh.

He cut open the horse's chest, took out the still beating heart, and held it up to the sun.

"Jonak Durado!"

The heart fell into the sea, and the blood dyed the water red. The warriors began to cheer loudly, as if the power of the horse god had descended upon them.

Garland sat by the boat, watching the pagan ceremony intently, but his hand was still clutching the seven-sided crystal pendant on his chest.

At this time, Laharo came over, pulled the hemp rope tied around Garland's neck, and said jokingly:

"Time to go rowing, my slave."

"You don't have to tie me up. I won't run away."

Garlan's eyes were stubborn. "The Tyrells were at fault first. I will bear all the consequences!"

"Your family owes me 500,000 gold royals and ten large ships. You alone are worth half a Gedho. You are my treasure."

Laharo laughed and tugged at the rope. "It's not tied in a knot, why don't you untie it yourself?"

"Can the horse god really protect you at sea?" Garland suddenly changed the subject.

"The power of the Horse God is everywhere. He can grant us speed on the grasslands and courage on the sea. We are his people and will always be protected by him."

"The Horse God asks you to sacrifice horse hearts, but the Seven Gods will forgive our sins if we pray sincerely."

"Power is never free; it always comes at a price," Rahalo sneered. "Besides, your temple was built with donations from believers. What's the difference?"

Garland lowered his head and said nothing.

He was full of curiosity about these pagans and wanted to understand them, but he also rejected them from the bottom of his heart and was very conflicted.

The horse's heart that sank into the sea created a bloody ripple and then disappeared into the sea.

At this moment, a huge figure flashed by on the dark seabed and swallowed up the horse's heart along with the blood.
