Chapter 1897 - Son Emerges as a Love Rival Again?

Marlin asked Caesar to send purple dresses was also very successful, and the ten-year-old little Princess Margaret liked the 100 beautiful purple dresses of different styles so much that she swore that when Caesar's brother came, she would kiss him a few times to express her gratitude.

However, the statement of the little princess made some ministers in England very dissatisfied. These ministers supported Princess Margaret to marry the children of the great nobles of the country, and avoided foreign monarchs from entering England.

Or, these ministers hope that the husband of Princess Margaret is not the crown prince of another country. In this way, foreign monarchs were prevented from coming to England.

They were not against the North Sea Kingdom, but against the future reign of Caesar, the crown prince of the North Sea. They believed that as the crown prince of the North Sea, Caesar must have identified more with the North Sea State. At that time, if it is biased towards the North Sea countries, it will be bad for England.

In fact, their judgment is not unreasonable. Historically, it was a tragedy that Spain chose Charles V to be their king.

Charles V was still the emperor of the Habsburgs after all, and he was more psychologically inclined to Germany. Therefore, although he lived in Spain, his main focus was on the struggle for hegemony in Germany, actively participating in the struggle for hegemony within Germany, and also participating in the wars of religion.

Poor Spanish colonial empire looted so much gold and silver from the Americas, most of which was squandered by Charles V in the struggle for hegemony in Germany. Then, instead of developing in Spain itself, Spain fell into a massive deficit. Even, during the time of Charles V's son Philip II, Spain, which was sitting on a sea of gold and silver, was forced to declare bankruptcy of the country.

In the final analysis, it was because Spain was dragged down by Austria. obviously has a strong level of profitability, but because of his rash participation in the European hegemony of the HRE, he spent a lot of money in vain, dragging down Spain. If you don't participate in the European hegemony, the money spent on the development of Spain mainland or the American colonies is at least better than spending on the European hegemony. All in all, the Habsburgs dragged down the Spanish colonial empire.

However, after the separation from Austria, Spain does not seem to be developing well. After losing the Eighty Years' War and being forced to give independence to the Netherlands, Spain was directly reduced to a second-rate country in Europe. England, which was once poor and weak, has risen to become a first-class power.

But in this era, the two are in tune with each other. At this time, Spain was rich, more than twice the population of England, and owned a large area of Italy, which was extremely powerful. England, on the other hand, was still a small and poor country with a population of only 3 million.

Of course, because of Marin's relationship, today's England has annexed England's sworn enemy Scotland, and also annexed the entire territory of Ireland, and the country is thriving.

Then, some of the ministers of England, too, could not help but be a little fluttering, began to claim to be the top power in Europe, and some of them swelled. Then, the Beihai country, which is not even a sovereign country, is a little ignored by them.

Although the North Sea Kingdom has a large colony on the American continent, the concept of colonies in Europeans at this time is not clear enough, and it is inevitable that the role of colonies is somewhat underestimated. Coupled with Marin's counter-propaganda, the American colonies were nothing in the eyes of the English ministers.

In fact, after the annexation of the eight vassal states, the current North Sea Kingdom is already very large, larger than the Kingdom of England before the annexation of Scotland and Ireland, and has a population of more than 2 million.

However, because it is not a sovereign state, it is only an archduke, and the "American kingdom" in the Americas is not recognized. Therefore, those English ministers who regarded themselves as ministers of great powers inevitably despised the North Sea State a little.

It's not that they don't want to marry the Hoffman royal family, but they don't want their future kings to be the same monarchs of other countries. In particular, the monarch of such an unsovereign state as the Grand Duchy of the North Sea.

In addition to worrying that such a monarch would not have England in mind, they also did not like that their future monarch was a vassal of another country. After all, the Grand Duke of Beihai State, nominally a vassal of the Holy Roman Empire, was a courtier......

A person of this status, who is also the king of England, would be a disgrace to the ministers of England. For your monarch is nothing but a courtier of others, and he feels like a dwarf.

So, in England at the moment, some ministers began to seek to keep the throne at home, so as not to make foreign monarchs the monarchs of "powerful" England.

However, even if they wanted to follow the example of the French and choose a side branch to become the heir to the royal family, it turned out that it seemed that all the other men of the York family had been killed by Henry VII......

Then, they could only support Edward's sister Margaret's eldest son, Henry, the eldest son of Lord Margaret, marrying Princess Margaret. In this way, the throne will not fall into the hands of foreign monarchs.

But the problem is that Henry's father, Richard. Pol was a standard thief and killed Edward's own sister, Lord Margaret, with his own hands. Therefore, even if he inherited the title of Earl of Salisbury, Lord of Margaret, his mother, Henry. Bol was also not very popular in Edward's court. The aristocracy of the military, in particular, did not like the little cubs of the Pol family very much. Only civil ministers who did not want the throne to fall to a foreign monarch supported him in marrying Princess Margaret.

But many English military aristocrats knew very well that although Marin was not in England, England had his legends everywhere. In particular, the Fourth and Fifth Legions of the North Sea State were still stationed in England. If you rashly turn the other cheek, a civil war will break out in England in an instant.

However, given that Edward was still young, and that no one knew that Edward had been kicked out, the ministers of England were still waiting for Edward to give birth to a prince in order to solve the current problem. It's just that they don't know that it's just an extravagant hope......

……

However, a new faction has suddenly emerged in England recently, supporting the marriage between Princess Margaret and Prince Ferdinand of the Habsburgs. Later, let Prince Ferdinand "get involved" in England.

Prince Ferdinand is Ferdinand, the second son of Prince Philip, the younger brother of Charles V. He was born in 1503, close to Princess Margaret's age. However, he has no inheritance rights and will not become a monarch in the future.

If he marries Princess Margaret, then, after marriage, he will have to come to England to live because he has no inheritance rights in his own country. This is somewhat similar to China's "wealth", and it has nothing to do with the original country Austria.

When the time comes, Ferdinand, who lives in England, will not think about other countries, but can only think about the interests of England. After all, everything in Austria belongs to his brother Charlie and has nothing to do with him.

Moreover, Prince Ferdinand is the grandson of the emperor, and his status is noble enough, so as not to insult the identity of Margaret, the princess of England......

This plan was put forward and won the support of many people in England. After all, it looks like a good solution. Prince Ferdinand's status is noble enough, but he has no inheritance rights, and he can live in London permanently in the future, focusing on the affairs of the Kingdom of England, and everything seems to be so harmonious......

Then, Marin, who learned the news, was upset......
