Chapter 247 Leaking the Secret

The summer is already very hot, and the air on the surface is roasted to a stupor. The dense crowds around the intersection are noisy and noisy, which aggravates the heat. Being there, it feels extremely dull.

The surrounding civilians were talking and yelling incessantly. Among the crowd surrounded by guards, they stared intently at the three prisoners on the gallows who were struggling more and more weakly. Oberon, nicknamed the Red Viper, didn't look good, but Renly beside him seemed not to have seen him. When the three prisoners became motionless, he even sent someone to tell the executioners to hang for a while to prevent the assassins from pretending to be dead and escaping.

It wasn't until the civilians watching the excitement dispersed that he turned around and called the "Dorne Tourist Team" to continue moving forward.

But after this encounter, the originally harmonious atmosphere quietly became a little tense. Oberon, the red viper in the team, glanced at Renly who was leading the team with hostile eyes several times, but never did anything special. matter.

Soon after, the group arrived at the port area again. Because there were a large number of summer vacationers staying there, the place was also noisy, so much so that the innocent mistress Nymeria in the group was surprised.

"With so many people hiding here, is it so hot?"

"The people of King's Landing are not as heat-resistant as the Dornishmen," Renly replied with a smile.

Dorne is mostly in the desert, and the environment and climate are much more difficult than here. This can be seen from the surface. After walking for such a long time, the guards surrounding the team were sweating profusely. But the Dornishmen didn't break a sweat at all.

"Then if they go to Dorne, won't they be killed by the heat?"

"It is not certain that you will die from heat, but it is possible that you will die from thirst..."

…

Simple people pay attention to simple things, but impure people discover some special circumstances here.

For example, there were warships moored far away in the port, and soldiers were constantly boarding the ships. After Renly's patient explanation, the Dornish people fully understood everything that had happened or was about to happen on the Crab Claw Peninsula.

They would not ignore the fact that among the crowds of people who were enjoying the summer vacation, there were several monks who were spreading anti-Targaryen remarks with high-pitched voices, and those remarks aroused the agreement of the surrounding civilians.

All this made Oberon, who was leading the team, feel depressed. Coupled with the execution scene he had seen before, it made him think a lot and make him feel irritated.

"Then Renly let us see this on purpose." When the tour was over and the Dornish people returned to their temporary residence, Oberon the Red Viper and his niece said, "He is a very scheming person."

"Are those three hanged prisoners really the Faceless Men?" Arianne asked hurriedly.

"I'm not sure what their identities are." Oberon said: "The plan is indeed to have the Faceless Men carry out the beheadings, and what Renly said has been very straightforward."

"Has our plan been discovered?" The petite Princess of Dorne looked ugly.

"That's right." Oberon gritted his teeth and replied.

Just as someone guessed, they came to King's Landing not for marriage, but in the hope of disrupting the situation here.

In other words, allies far outside Westeros promised to send faceless men to assassinate several direct members of the Baratheon family, and hoped that Dorne would take this opportunity to intervene and cause disputes.

Their initial plan is to kill most of the Baratheon family, leaving only King Robert's only daughter Myrcella and Stannis Baratheon. In this way, the two sides will definitely fight.

Because according to the normal line of succession to the Iron Throne, Stannis, a male, must be crowned king, but if we consider the laws of Dorne and the interests of the Lannister family, Myrcella is the real heir to the king. .

It's a pity that the plan was well thought out, but it ended suddenly before it really started.

"Didn't I say that no one has ever discovered the disguise of the Faceless Men? How on earth were they exposed?"

"Maybe those are not the real Faceless Men. Renly just learned about our plan and deliberately let other prisoners pretend to be them."

"Even so, he still discovered our plan."

"The only people in Dorne who know about this plan are you, me, and your father, so someone from the Targaryen side must have leaked it."

"Is there a traitor over there?"

"Maybe--"

Halfway through the words, someone suddenly knocked on the door.

Oberon frowned and walked over to open the door. He saw a fat man dressed as an attendant standing timidly outside the door. He couldn't help but shrink his neck when he looked at him, looking cowardly and timid. .

"Lord Renly called me and asked me to give this to you." The little fat man said as he tremblingly handed over a rolled up note in his hand.

This little fat man was Renly's squire. Oberon had seen him before, so he frowned, but he took the note without hesitation.

When he opened it and took a look, he couldn't help but be startled, then he raised his eyes and asked quickly: "Is this true?"

"What, what's the matter?" the little fat man asked blankly.

Obviously he didn't know anything. Seeing this, Oberon squeezed the note tightly and said without hesitation: "Take me to see your master!"

This person's tone was urgent, as if something was urgent. Seeing this, the little fat man didn't dare to hesitate and immediately turned around and ran outside. Oberon gave instructions to his niece in the house and then followed her away.

At this time, it was getting late outside the building, and the dim light radiated from the sky, soaking the stone bricks of the red castle under their feet in a gorgeous way. The two people, one large and one small, walked hurriedly in tandem, and finally reached the tower dedicated to the Minister of Justice. I met Renly inside.

It seemed that he had been prepared for it. When the Dornish man entered the room, the black-haired young man did not show any surprise on his face. Instead, he smiled at the visitor.

He had been in a hurry before, but after arriving in the house, the Red Viper of Dorne calmed down, walked to a chair in front of Renly's desk, sat down, and then kicked his legs.

"Is what it says true?" he asked.

Renly did not answer, but looked at the attendant Samwell at the door of the room. After signaling the other party to leave, he said: "I don't have to fool you on this matter, and you also saw it at the banquet last night. Those parties."

"The hair color alone is not enough to prove that the three children are not Robert's father." Oberon shook his head after hearing this: "Besides, I heard that even the king's hair turned golden a while ago."

"This is enough to prove that hair color can be changed, using things like blood magic or witchcraft." Renli said pointedly, "Besides, what do you think the purpose of changing like this is? In other words, it is Who is covering up what?”

Oberon frowned upon hearing this and remained silent for a while.

Renly shrugged at this.

The content of the note he handed over before was very simple. He wrote down the fact that his brother was cuckolded and the children were not his biological children.

The purpose is naturally not to publicize the "family scandal", but to prove that the Baratheon family and the Lannister family behind the queen already have irrelievable hatred. In other words, Renly's purpose is to win over Dorne.

At this time, the situation in the Seven Kingdoms was generally stable, except for Dorne, which was a seriously unstable area.

Dorne's problem is actually simple. During Robert's rebellion, Dorne and Targaryen were in a marriage relationship. Prince Rhaegar, the heir to the Targaryen Iron Throne, married Princess Elia of Dorne, who is now the daughter of Dorne. The sister of the Red Viper.

Then during Robert's Rebellion, Princess Elia and her children died tragically in the Red Keep.

But in fact, their tragic deaths were not caused by Baratheon, but by Lannister——

The Lannister had not yet joined Robert's side, and their massacre of the Princess of Dorne and her children was tantamount to a "letter of surrender."

So in a real sense, Dorne's enemy is the Lannister, not Baratheon.

This is why Renly wants to prove to the Dornish man that Baratheon has the potential to stand against Lannister.

But this alone is not enough.

"I know that Dorne has now allied with the Targaryens." When Oberon thought about it, Renly said: "I also know that your sister's death filled you with hatred. But her death is really all our fault. ?"

As soon as the words fell, the atmosphere in the room suddenly became tense.
