The black-haired boy in armor originally had a mocking smile on his face, but when he heard Stannis say this, the last smile on his face disappeared, leaving only anger.
However, before Renly could open his mouth to refute, Stannis continued to speak.
"Besides, Renly, you know what you did. It's not that I want to kill you, but that you want to kill me now!"
"I have received news that the son of the Mad King has written you a secret letter. What is written in it? If you have a clear conscience, you might as well take it out and let your Lordships take a look."
Stannis held the hilt of the sword in his hand and said with a sneer on his face.
"What?"
"Is there such a thing?"
When Stannis's words came out, all the Stormland nobles and guards present looked at each other, and then focused their attention on Renly.
Viserys wrote a secret letter to Renly?
Why did he write to Renly?
What will the letter say?
Why was Lord Renly never mentioned?
"Yes, Viserys wrote a secret letter to Lord Renly. If the content in it can be seen by others, why didn't he dare to publish it?"
Some nobles who sided with Stannis immediately spoke in agreement, while more Stormland nobles and even those loyal to Renly nodded slightly.
Why did they gather at Storm's End? Isn't it just to unite against the pressure of Viserys?
Whether it is war or peace, fight to the end to defend the dignity and honor of the nobles, and in peace, unite and negotiate with Viserys.
Ask him to guarantee respect for the traditional rights of the nobility and never allow some low-born mud-legged person to have the opportunity to be called an 'adult' with them in the future.
However, now that Renly and Viserys have secretly contacted each other in private, how can these nobles tolerate the betrayal of their own lords?
When Renly heard Stannis's words, his face changed slightly at first, and then he heard the echoes of some nobles, and a deep sense of shame and anger suddenly surged into his heart.
As the Lord of the Stormlands and the Duke of Storm's End, what qualifications do these people have to order him to hand over his personal letters? Wouldn't this be a great shame?
At the same time, Renly also had a vague premonition. He seemed to sense that Viserys had sinister intentions...
But Renly was just about to deny the existence of the letter, but then he remembered that the envelope was placed in the study behind him before he could deal with it. If the lie was exposed, it would be even harder to deal with it.
So Renly could only hold back the breath for the time being, holding the hilt of the sword tightly, and confessed with a flushed face.
"Yes, Viserys did write me a letter."
"But there is no content in this letter, just a blank piece of paper!"
However, it is a pity that Renly's patience did not win Stannis's tolerance. He was extremely vengeful and was never good at forgiving others. Instead, he took a step closer and walked to Renly with his hand on the hilt of his sword.
A pair of eyes looked at his youngest brother coldly, until Renly's eyes became slightly wandering, and then he spoke in a calm voice.
"You're still the same, Renly."
"What?"
Renly was a little flustered by his brother's gaze, and his eyes wandered slightly involuntarily.
In fact, he has not liked his second brother since he was a child. His eldest brother Robert has a bold personality and often goes out to play with Renly in his arms.
Stannis, his second brother, had a straight face every day and even threw away all the beautiful stones he collected at the beach. This became Renly's childhood shadow.
"It's just that your eyes wander when you lie."
At this moment, Stannis suddenly spoke.
"You have been like this since you were a child. Your father and mother died very early, and they didn't have time to take care of you before they died."
"Every time you do something wrong, Robert is busy fucking those whores and drinking, so he doesn't care about you, and I am the only one who has been disciplining you, fearing that you will go astray."
"But I didn't expect that after I went to Dragonstone Island for a few years, you neglected to discipline me and still went astray."
Stannis's voice was regretful, and he looked at Renly with piercing eyes, his eyes were cold, as if he had never known what it meant to be cheerful, and then he raised his voice and roared in a low voice.
"Do you think you and I are fools?!"
"Viserys put a blank piece of paper in the envelope for you?"
Stannis suddenly attacked Renly, who was caught off guard. He subconsciously lowered his head when facing his brother.
However, Renly is no longer the child who allowed himself to be disciplined by Stannis. He is now fifteen years old and in his rebellious stage. Renly was scolded by Stannis, and he immediately became furious and retorted loudly.
road.
"I did not lie!"
"Viserys just put a piece of white paper in the envelope he gave me. That piece of paper is still in the study. If you don't believe it, go in and take a look!"
But it's a pity that no one believes Renly's words. There are so many blank papers in the study, Renly can just take out a piece of paper and say that this is a letter written by Viserys.
His words even made the nobles who were already loyal to Renly look suspicious on their faces.
Viserys had nothing to do but stuff a blank piece of paper into the envelope?
This kind of thing can be deceived by a child of fifteen or sixteen years old.
However, Renly saw more and more suspicious eyes around him, and he also knew that something was wrong.
If you allow things to continue to develop, I am afraid that everyone else will switch sides before you can resist, and you will be in danger at that time.
Clang
Then Renly suddenly became decisive. He immediately pulled out the long sword from his waist and pointed it directly at his second brother.
"Stannis confuses right and wrong and wants to kill me and seize Storm's End. Take him!"
Renly gave the order. Although the nobles had doubts on their faces, they still surrendered to Renly's side. They hesitated a little, but the guards who were loyal to Renly would not hesitate.
They don't care about letters or nonsense between nobles. They are only loyal to their master. Since Renly ordered them, they will go up and capture Stannis.
There were only four or five guards on Stannis' side, but he immediately drew the sword from his waist without any fear.
"kill him!"
"kill!"
Dangdang
A fierce battle broke out between the two sides in Storm's End Castle.
When the nobles who were hesitating saw this, they knew they couldn't just sit idly by and must take a stand at this time.
So they all chose to join one side of the two Baratheon brothers, drew their swords and joined the battle.
Stannis's reinforcements also arrived not far away.
Onion Knight Davos gathered the guards and had been observing the goings-on here. He discovered that the two sides were fighting, so he quickly led the guards to join the battle.
