Counting on the fingers, as of today, there are a total of twenty kings who are legally sitting on the Iron Throne. Robert is the eighteenth, Stannis is the nineteenth, and Renly is the twentieth.
The Iron Throne was forged by the Dragon Controller, and when it came to Renly, it finally returned to the Dragon Controller's hands. He was also a magician ranked second in the Seven Kingdoms. However, he was not arrogant about holding things, whether it was for nobles or commoners.
A polite and smiling face, fair and equitable to the Stormland nobles and business partners.
Seven days after Stannis abdicated the throne and Renly ascended the Iron Throne, the nobles began to worry again after cheering.
"The enthronement ceremony was not attended by the Archbishop of the Seven Gods?" From the Westerners' side, Martin Lannister asked his twin brother William beside him.
"Stannis was the first person in Westeros to abdicate voluntarily after becoming king since the unification of Westeros. The gods had already blessed Stannis, and he passed the throne to Renly while he was alive, which is equivalent to blessing.
It was passed to Renly, and it makes sense without the participation of the bishop, barely!" William folded his hands on his chest and looked at Renly on the high platform.
Martin turned his head and motioned for his brother to look at the huge statue: "If you really think about it, the Seven Gods are also a foreign religion. Now does Renly want to show that magic and the Seven Gods are in opposition? Magic is real, while the Seven Gods are illusory.
.”
"Religion is just a tool to control the people. Magic is a means with practical effects. The two are not equivalent. After the Andals invaded, they used the Seven Gods to control the continent. So Renly." William took out a high-quality wood carving from his pocket.
The dragon head pendant was given to him by a Volantis noble named Dophas Panymeon at a banquet a few days ago.
"Dragon Worshiping Cult!" Seeing what his brother was holding, Martin also took out an identical wooden carving pendant from his pocket.
"I also have one, which was given to me by Duke Werther's lover, Corna Rogar." Martin's fiancée Miriam also stood up and said.
"It turns out that all of this was designed by the Baratheon brothers, using religion to fight religion, so let's wait and see what happens." William put the pendant back in his pocket.
James, Duke of the West, stood beside a few people and looked at the ground blankly. He spoke less and less, and his character became more and more withdrawn. He also occupied the bedroom where his sister Cersei once slept, and completely ignored government affairs. Many people
Said he had gone crazy.
All the main members of the Lannister family were killed by vampires, and Jaime had no heirs. With the closest blood relationship to him, William and Martin, the sons of his deceased uncle Kevan, became the first and second heirs.
Jaime ignored government affairs, and the slaughtered Casterly Rock City lacked officials. The twin brothers William and Martin took the initiative to assume the responsibility of heirs, allowing many young knights who had made great achievements in the Twins City to serve in Casterly Rock City.
Thanks to the efforts of the two William brothers and the young knight, there was no riot in the Western Territory, and their abilities were recognized by the nobles.
As heirs, William and Martin also began to learn the knowledge of governance. They learned how to rule from the classics that were never passed down by the family. The once prosperous Western Territory had fallen behind, and William had also decided on the future development direction, and had ready-made plans.
The case was put before the eyes of the nobles of the Seven Kingdoms, and they all learned from Duke Witte of Tyrosh.
"William, no matter what you do, we will support you." Looking at William, who frowned, Salina pulled his sleeve.
William turned to look at Selina. She was very beautiful with blond hair. She was a pure Lannister descendant, and her love for him was so obvious. Twin brothers married twin sisters, and countless nobles were trying to match them up. But
He is the heir to the West, and he has never accepted her for the sake of the future of the Lannister family.
William looked at the front of the Tyrosi team again, where Werther was holding hands with two beautiful ladies, Tyene and Kona, talking and laughing.
"The future is the age of magicians. For the sake of Lannister and the future of the West, I must marry Duke Witte's disciple Rosamund and give birth to a magician to inherit the West. But I will not give up on you, I will always keep you
Take it with you." William took Selina's hand, held her hands and held them to his chest.
He finally made up his mind, shouldn't he learn from Werther? If he wants to learn, he will learn to the end. I want both women!
The smart Serena, with a smile on her face, did not agree to William immediately but changed the subject: "Do you want to imitate Duke Werther's hug? Then we will also make a big statue for you and put it at the gate of Casterly Rock City?"
"no way!"
William thinks he is not as good as the artistic pioneer.

In the Capital Guard cell, the guard with bruises on his face came to the cell door again.
"Haha, you bastards, don't even think about marrying Tyrosh!"
"If we don't kill anyone, it's a misdemeanor. The night watchman's crows can't recruit us." The prisoners in the cell were lying on the ground one by one, very leisurely.
The guard drew out his stick in advance this time and asked other guards to help maintain order. He walked to the cell door and opened the cell door with a key: "You have been pardoned by the king again!"
"What? Again!"
"Asshole, did you take my mother's money and try to trick me into going home?"
The prisoners began to curse, and no one came out of the cell door.
"Stannis abdicated, and the new king is Renly. You are so lucky to have received two amnesties in one week. Get out of here!" The guard knocked on the fence with a stick.
This time, the guards were so outnumbered that the prisoners did not dare to resist and walked out of the cell yelling curses. However, they were not willing to give in. They walked out of the dungeon and waited for their eyes to adjust to the sunlight before rushing to the nearby military camp. One by one, they ran out carrying tables, chairs and benches, mouthing
They kept shouting, come and catch me!
~~~
"The King is merciful!" There was another burst of cheers in the square. Like every new king, Renly announced the pardon at the coronation ceremony.
Renly became king and Margaery became the new queen.
She and Stannis's wife did not inherit the crowns from the former queen Doris Rowan, but took the initiative to create two new crowns. Doris and Selyse Florent
People became former queens, they were all one family, and Margaery allowed them both to retain the crowns that once belonged to them.
Duke Mace was extremely happy. Before, he was worried that Stannis would mess up. Now his son-in-law has become the king's daughter and the queen. Nobles are constantly crowding around to congratulate him. The smile on his fat face has never disappeared.
Interrupted: "Let's see who dares to call me an inflatable fish in the future!"
The new king Renly and his family stood on the stage and accepted the cheers from the nobles. When the cheers gradually died down, Witte let go of Tyene's hand and said, "It's time for me to go on stage. Give me the things."
Tyene handed the long stick wrapped in black cloth to Wert, who took it in his hand and walked up to the high platform under the watchful eyes of everyone.
Renly, Margaery and her son Lionel were holding hands. The three of them looked at Werther slowly approaching with surprised expressions on their faces. They didn't know what Werther wanted to do.
"Are you going to give me a gift again? How can you be so embarrassed! Haha." Renly smiled all over his face. The things Werther sent were all good things.
"Who said it was for you? You don't lack this thing either." Werther raised his arms as soon as he finished speaking.
Boom~~~莍
Flames ignited on the black cloth, and a golden long sword was held in Witte's hand. In the middle of the sword's ring, a light group like a small sun continued to emit strange golden light, and the sword's blade also had magical light flowing.
.
"Oh!" "Oh my God!"
There were constant exclamations in the audience. In this martial age, a Valyrian steel sword can drive knights crazy. Nowadays, all Valyrian steel swords have different shapes and are inlaid with various precious gems.
, there is no magic light group that will never fade away like this sword. Even Werther's famous black giant sword only has a red light shining on the sword.
The nobles, including Renly, had never seen a long sword of this shape before. They thought it was a new sword made by Werther, the man who could create Valyrian steel, and kept admiring him. Everyone who had seen this sword was
, only a few Volantis nobles, and the woman who had entered Werther's bedroom.
Margery held her son Lionel in her arms, staring at Werther with her eyes fixed on her face, trying to keep calm.
"The sword is called Dawnbreaker, a gift for Prince Lionel." Werther handed the sword to Renly.
Lionel is less than two years old. Werther does not dare to let him touch the powerful Dawnbreaker that can produce fire explosions, so he can only hand it over to Renly.
"Lionel, please thank uncle quickly." Margery asked her son to be polite.
"Thank you, uncle."
"Hahaha." Werther laughed.
Renly stretched out his hand to hold the hilt of the sword, and instantly felt the extraordinary magic power in the sword. He raised his head and looked at Werther in surprise: "This sword?"
Witte lowered his voice: "It is a weapon blessed by Meridia, the demon god who yearns for light. She is a kind-hearted female demon god, don't worry."
"Magic artifact!" Renly was shocked and stretched out his hand to pat Werther on the shoulder.
Then he raised the Dawnbreaker high, and the magic power in his body was slightly injected into the sword. The light ball on the sword instantly shone with golden light: "The sword that Duke Werther gave to Prince Lionel! Dawnbreaker!"
"Lionel!"
"Werther!"
Amid the cheers, Soros, who was once a monk of the Lord of Light, watched in the audience with his heart beating wildly.
Triene pouted and was a little unhappy. This sword was very useful for lighting in the bedroom. She also made many gorgeous lampshades with her own hands. Now she was a little reluctant to give it away, as if she was giving away her own child.
.
When Werther saw Tyene's appearance, he was about to step off the stage to comfort her. Just as he was about to leave the stage, Margaery stretched out her hand and tilted it in front of Werther with her palm down.
Now that Margery has a higher status than Werther and is still a married woman, she can take the initiative to reach out and let Werther kiss his hand.
Werther knelt down on one knee, took Margery's right hand with both hands and put it in front of his mouth. It was supposed to be over here, but when Margery retracted her hand, she gently raised it and touched Werther's lips.
"Take Nymeria and the others to Maegor's Tower in the Red Keep tonight!" A soft voice reached Werther's ears.
"Ah?" Werther was surprised. He mentioned this on such an important occasion?
Then he looked at Renly, who had a calm expression on his face. He was looking at Loras who was standing by the high platform. It was obvious that he and Margaery had already agreed to celebrate tonight.
Margaery kept an elegant smile and said ungraceful words: "Ah what, I am your queen now, and I order you as the queen!"
"Obey!" The law-abiding Duke Werther immediately accepted the order.
"Your Majesty the King!"
After Werther stepped off the stage, Theon, who was standing in Tyrosh's team, saw Werther's eyes and walked to the high platform.
Theon knelt down on one knee under the high platform, and the two temporary squire knights assigned to him by his sisters stood behind him holding the mermaid flag.
"Oh, Ser Theon, do you have anything important to do?" Renly thought that he had to do something well as he had just accepted Livit's subordinates.
"Your Majesty the King, every high-quality weapon is the lifelong pursuit of knights. Although the Night Sword on my body is not as good as the Dawnbreaker, it also represents the glory of the Greyjoy family. However, the ownership of the Night Sword has the right to own it.
A family has raised a dispute, and I want the king to make a fair ruling here, and let the nobles of the seven countries witness it."
After Theon said a lot of words that he had memorized, he looked in the direction of the Iron Islands nobles.
Theon killed someone and took the sword. This happened before the siege of Tyrosh, and the nobles of the Seven Kingdoms knew about it. Afterwards, King Robert issued an amnesty to Theon's sister and brother, which only pardoned their treason and did not punish Ye Lin.
The ownership of the sword is explained.
Under the gaze of thousands of nobles, Rodrik, the leader of the Harlaw family, had to stand up.
He walked through the crowd, came to Xion's side, knelt down on one knee, and began to tell his appeal to Ye Linjian.
However, there are not many well-known Valyrian steel swords in the Seven Kingdoms. There are detailed records in the Citadel and the Red Keep. The nobles are also familiar with these stories. The first recorded holder of the Night Sword was Dalton.
·Greyjoy, he was snatched from the pirates, and Dalton gave him the name Night Sword.
The Greyjoy family declined midway, and there is no record of transactions or gifts. The descendants of the Harlaw family somehow possessed the Night Sword. According to the laws of the Seven Kingdoms, the descendants of the Greyjoy family even
You can directly ask them to return the Ye Lin Sword.
The bad thing is that Theon killed Heras Harlaw and the soldiers around him at that time, and deliberately left only one escaped soldier to report the news. Too many years have passed, and it is impossible to confirm whether Theon proposed to let Heras
Lars returns.
"I was not a wanted criminal at that time. I must have offered to return it, but Heras sternly refused."
"The soldiers were in the military council hall at that time, but in front of King Robert and hundreds of officers, you have testified that you are killing people and seizing swords!"
Theon and Rodrik refused to give in to each other, and the two of them were red-faced.
"Theon, Roderick, you both have good reasons, please be quiet for a while." Renly raised his hand and pushed the crown, which was still not used to it.
"Your Majesty the King, since both of us are justified, then I demand trial by combat!" Xion said today's purpose.
Renly thought for a moment and said, "That's fine. The ownership will be decided in the presence of the Seven Gods and the nobles, and you will never be able to question the sword again. You both can participate in the battle in person, or you can choose to participate in the battle as representatives."
"The Night Sword belongs to me, and I will not ask anyone to compete for me. As for the Harlow family, whoever wants the Night Sword should stand in front of me. You only have one chance!" Weapons are not allowed in the enthronement ceremony. Xion
Ye Lin left it at the door, so he had to ask the king for help.
Renly just wanted to show off, and raised his hands to cast ice magic. Long swords, great swords, spears and shields, and dozens of weapons made of ice fell to the ground: "Leader Roderick, have you decided who will fight?
