On June 7, 1660, on the island of Faissan, the border river between France and Spain (located at the foot of the Pyrenees, near the Bay of Biscay), was waiting with Maria of Spain. Louis XIV, whom Teresa met, was now in a good mood.

The good mood is because his daughter-in-law Maria. Teresa just died her brother!

This was on October 22nd of last year, and Maria. Teresa's half-brother Fernando. Thomas. Carlos was summoned by the Lord and died at the age of 10 months...... Now Maria. Theresa was left with only one brother, Philip of Asturias. Prosper. This younger brother is also in poor health, suffers from severe epilepsy, and has a very stupid brain, and when he is more than two years old and almost three years old, he still can't speak, walk, and can't even crawl.

Obviously, Prince Turias is not suitable to be king, and even if he barely ascends the throne, there is a high probability that he will not be able to continue the Habsburg dynasty in Spain, and there is a high probability that he will die early!

At that time, the only person left to inherit the Spanish throne was Maria. Teresa and Margaret. Teresa ......

Of course, Philip IV had anticipated this. So the negotiations about this marriage went very hard!

The Spanish side insisted that Maria. Theresa relinquished the right to the throne, while Bishop Mazarin, representing France, showed his cleverness and gambler qualities at the last moments - on the one hand, in Maria. Teresa made concessions on her inheritance, but at the same time set a trap for the Spaniards, demanding a large dowry as compensation.

However, no matter how poor the Kingdom of Spain is, it will not be able to cut out hundreds of thousands of ecus of silver. However, people or countries that owe a lot of debts will have the idea that they can rely on a little bit.

Therefore, as long as the French side allows Spain to pay the dowry on credit, then there is a high probability that Spain will delay not giving the money.

And this dowry is again Maria. Teresa's compensation for the renunciation of the right to inherit the throne - the compensation is not given, then the agreement to renounce the right to the throne is naturally invalid!

Therefore, as long as Philip IV died without a male heir, or if his male heir died not long after he became king, he left no children.

Then Maria. Teresa will be able to reverse her promise on the grounds that she has not received compensation!

At that time, Louis XIV would have a legal basis for seizing the Spanish throne - such a thing as a righteous name existed not only in East Asian civilizations, but also in Europe, and it was more elaborate.

If Louis XIV had no legal basis for succession to the Spanish throne and had only forcibly invaded, even if he had won, it would have been difficult for his Spanish subjects and the Catholic Church to approve him...... Invasion can only be more than worth the loss.

Can be if Maria. Teresa was the first in line to the Spanish throne, so Louis's invasion was justified - the Habsburgs were outsiders anyway, and they obtained the Spanish crown by marrying the mad queen Juana.

What the Habsburgs could do, the Bourbons couldn't?

Moreover, Louis XIV not only had the righteous name of marriage inheritance, but also the new army of the Prince of Condé...... And Charlie on the other side of the English Channel. Cromwell's Secret Treaty!

According to the treaty, if the Netherlands were to oppose France in the future "War of the Spanish Succession" or the "War of the Spanish Inheritance", then England would have to join France in the war against the Netherlands and Spain!

Considering that hostilities between Austria and the Ottoman Empire were intensifying, Austria should not be of much help in a future "War of the Succession" or "War of the Inheritance".

So with the Anglo-French alliance, Louis XIV was confident that he would win!

Now wait for the legendary first beauty of the Habsburg dynasty, Maria. Her Royal Highness Princess Teresa has arrived!

"Your Majesty, the Spaniards are here!"

One of the king's attendants of France suddenly shouted loudly.

Louis XIV, who had been sitting in a tent, immediately stood up, walked out of the tent quickly, and looked towards a pontoon bridge not far away, only to see a large group of richly dressed knights flocking several decorated carriages on the pontoon bridge, and in a blink of an eye landed on the island of Faissan, where Louis XIV was located.

"King, the man with a few big red feathers stuck in his hat is the venerable King of Spain!"

The elderly Bishop Mazarin walked to Louis XIV with a cane and pointed to a man in a large red-haired hat.

Louis XIV craned his neck and looked around, saw a long face that was a little out of proportion, and thought to himself: This is what the usury merchant who has cheated half of Europe for not paying his debts looks like this!

Philip IV, the first elder of the 17th century, also saw Louis XIV's little man who liked to wear high heels at this time!

Philip IV was quite satisfied with Louis XIV's son-in-law, although he was not tall, had an excessively large nose, and was said to be particularly stinky, considering himself the most beautiful man in France..... However, there is one thing that makes Philip very satisfied, that is, Louis does not destroy him to cash in the dowry, and it seems that he really likes Maria. Teresa's.

And Maria. Teresa is indeed a beautiful girl who is loved by everyone, and she is definitely worthy of Louie's love. Philip IV thought to himself: Maria's rectangular face and fat chin were too charming to charm any man in the world. And her chin is just non, not big, and she doesn't feel hard at all when she chews her food......

With the love of Louis and Maria as a guarantee, peace between Spain and France should be assured.

Of course, peace between Spain and France was not enough, and relations should be further developed until an alliance was established that would ensure the eternal domination of the world by the Catholic Church.

For many years, the Kingdom of Spain has been alone in the defence of God...... could have barely borne it, but the rapid rise of the blasphemous Heavenly Principle in the East has made Spain a little unable to hold on.

The retreat from Manila meant that for the first time, the flag of God was replaced by the flag of Heaven!

It's a religious war!

France, as the third power in the Catholic camp (Spain first, HRE second), has an obligation to stand with Spain and defend God!

At the thought of defending God, a look of divine solemnity appeared on Philip IV's long face. By this time he had reached Louis XIV, dismounted, supported by his attendants, and stood before the King of France, who had come to meet him.

Louis looked at the old man's expression, and he was also a little confused - he hadn't arrived at the church yet, so he didn't have to do this, right?

"Hello, Honorable King Philip." Louis greeted his husband in Latin.

Philip also nodded, took off his hat first, and then responded in Latin: "I am fine, thank you for your greetings, Your Majesty King Louis!" ”

As he spoke, he waved at the carriage that had just stopped behind him, and then he saw the door of the carriage opened, and first a petite and delicate maid came out, and then a girl with a long face and double chin wrapped in a fluffy white court dress staggered out and stood on the land that belonged to France.

"I'll introduce you," King Philip said, pointing to the maiden, "that's Maria. Teresa, Spain's most beautiful treasure!

Maria, this is His Majesty Louis XIV, the most dazzling man in France! ”

Louis XIV looked at the Spanish princess with a double chin, and then turned his annoyed gaze to Mazarin—what are you doing? Spain's first beauty is like that? It's not comparable to those "Mancini" at all! It's so much worse...... I knew that I wouldn't have let Mary (Mary. Mancini) went to China!

At the same time, King Philip was being watched by two reproachful eyes! It was his daughter Maria. Teresa was glaring at him - the man in high heels who didn't have much height and a particularly ugly big nose was the most beautiful man in France?

The old man next to him looked more handsome than him (that was Bishop Mazarin)!
