Edward's death was simply a fuse, igniting the prelude to the struggle for the throne. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

On the top of Edward's funeral, Hanno met Elizabeth's sister, Princess Mary.

She was dressed in a black funeral dress with a veil on her head, and she was now beside Han Nuo, praying with the priest with everyone.

"God willing, His Majesty the Great King has a smooth path to heaven."

"May Heaven continue to bless your subjects from war, sickness, and affliction......"

As the priest prayed, the breeze gently blew Princess Mary's veil, through which she saw a familiar face, and couldn't help but exclaim, "Millet?"

When the other party heard her voice, he turned his head slightly, lifted the gauze hat on his head, the corners of his mouth rose, and his voice was distant: "Elizabeth, long time no see."

"Xiaomi, I'm Han Nuo, don't you know me?"

Mary didn't expect her to hold her hands so suddenly, she frowned, pulled her hand out, and sneered, "What, did you see that I was about to become a queen, so you deliberately came to woo me?" ”

Han Nuo's whole body stiffened, although this woman had the same face as Le Xiaomi, but the words she said were indeed like two people, she knew that Le Xiaomi, would never talk to her in this tone, she would only say to her, "Han Nuo, it's good if you are happy." ”

"My sister's words are wrong, whether my sister is a queen or not, I still love you."

"Hmph."

Mary snorted coldly and turned to leave.

Looking at her departing figure, Han Nuo felt indescribably melancholy. He didn't want to get involved in this endless battle for imperial power.

After King Edward's death, his uncle Edward Seymour tried to support his daughter, Henry VII's granddaughter, Jane Seymour, on the throne, but the young queen sat for only nine days before she was pulled off the horse by Princess Mary and became the new queen of England with the support of the Pope of Canaan and members of the Parliament.

For this matter, Han Nuo is no exception, after all, history develops like this, what he wants to prevent is not Mary from becoming the queen, but to support her as much as possible, let her take a bright political path, and she just be a free and easy princess.

When Mary succeeded to the throne, the first thing she had to deal with was the thorny question of religion.

Han Nuo walked up to her and admonished, "Your Majesty, in fact, Protestantism and Catholicism cannot coexist, as long as they are handled properly, it will not affect the country's political system. ”

Mary, dressed in a splendid dress, with a crown studded with pearls and gems on her head, and a scepter in her hand, walked up to her condescendingly.

"You're asking me to compromise with the Protestants? The more I tolerate them, the more they get better, you know? ”

Queen Mary's temper was more violent than she had imagined, and many said that she was like his father, Henry VIII, but she felt that the queen was more like her mother, very stubborn, and did not want to follow the advice of others.

Hanno tried to dissuade him again, "We can use a compromise to deal with the harassment of the Spanish army first, and then deal with the internal troubles, so that we don't have to suffer from the enemy." ”

Han Nuo knew that if she insisted on massacring Protestants, then she would immediately be called Bloody Mary, and then she would eventually be pulled down from the political arena under the voice of popular discontent, then she would become the next victim and be sent to this position.

For her, the throne is nothing more than a political puppet!

Mary raised her eyebrows and looked at her haughtily, "Elizabeth, are you accusing me?" ”

She chuckled and continued, "Do you think, perhaps, that you are more suitable for this position than I am......"

Han Nuo knelt down on one knee and said sincerely: "Your Majesty, I have no such intention, I can help you abolish Jane Seymour at that time, which is to prove to you that I am willing to follow you forever."

When Edward Seymour tried his best to push his daughter away, Jane Seymour ascended to the throne, so she went to Princess Mary, revealed her heart, showed that she would be on her side, and then together with Mary and Canaan, he designed a crime against Jane Seymour, canceled her inheritance, and imprisoned her in the Tower of London, Hanno felt that he was right to do so, at least she proved to Mary that she would not betray her, so that they could avoid becoming enemies in the future.

After all, they were the only people in the world who were related by blood, and she didn't want history to repeat itself.

"I naturally understand your intentions, you go back first, I will think about what you say."

After this incident, Mary began to trust this half-sister, but Canaan said that the Protestants must be taken down together, otherwise the consequences will be unimaginable, and he is now in a dilemma, so he should think about it again.

Before Hanno could leave the White House, a maid told her that the Pope of Canaan had invited her to Westminster Abbey.

Canaan wants to see her, I'm afraid it's not that simple, right?

Since the last time Gaia was kidnapped, Canaan had consciously distanced herself from her, and she didn't care about him, and she was slightly surprised when she suddenly called her to go today.

"Did the Pope tell you what I was told to do?"

The maid took out a jade pendant from her bosom and put it in Han Nuo's hand, and said softly: "The Pope said, tell me to give this to you, and you will understand."

Han Nuo looked at the jade pendant in his hand, and his whole body was shocked, wasn't this a personal thing she was wearing? How could it be in the hands of Canaan?

"Ding"

In a flash of inspiration, she suddenly remembered that she had gone to his stable to steal a horse, which might have been lost at that time.

suffered, he called her over at this time, did he want to expose her on the spot?

"Princess, let's go, the Pope is waiting for you."

Anyway, I went to see what was going on first, and then I saw the opportunity to act, and while thinking, I followed.

Westminster Abbey.

Canaan is wearing a blue robe today, which looks like an immortal who doesn't eat the fireworks of the world, but as soon as he looks up and smiles at you, you will feel that everything you just thought is in your brain.

"Princess Elizabeth, you're here."

Han Nuo nodded, sat down across from him, and asked his servants to bring dinner, then took out a bottle of whiskey and asked her to fill it.

She waved her hand and pushed, "No, no, no, I never drink, and when I drink, I get drunk easily."

"Really?" Canaan raised his glass and smiled, "I remember you used to be very good at drinking, and Mary and I couldn't drink you." ”

It wasn't her Han Nuo before, she Han Nuo has a characteristic, that is, she will get drunk when she gets drunk, she is afraid that she will get drunk and talk nonsense, but it will be miserable if she shows her stuffing.
