François, a French knight who was canonized as Count of Calais, was like being hit by a pie falling from the sky when he was hungry. It was a feeling of ecstasy.

Although he knew that a strategic place like the fortress of Calais could not have been entrusted to his own management. But François understood that in exchange, Louis XII would certainly give himself a handsome reward. At the very least, this treatment is much better than the treatment of his previous knighthood......

What's more, with the title of Count of Calais, his eldest son will not have to trade his life for the status of a knight, the lowest-level nobleman who can only enjoy one lifetime and cannot inherit, like himself in the future. Even if it is not as affordable as the average earl, as long as both Britain and France recognize their own earl title, their children and grandchildren, without paying any price, can inherit this title in the future and become a generation of nobles...... It felt like the Knight François was too excited to speak......

"When I officially ascend the throne in London, don't forget to come to London. When the time comes, I will give you a formal canonization ceremony, don't forget. Before boarding the ship, Edward instructed.

"Uh-huh-the minister must be on time!" François, who was dazed, floated aboard the ship back home......

Looking at the sailboat in the distance, Marin suddenly smacked his lips:

"What a pity, I was going to glue a ship to drown these French officers...... Now, there's no chance...... It's a pity ......"

Then he said to Edward:

"Your Majesty, it seems that you don't need that glue boat......"

Edward was silent for a while, then suddenly said:

"No, you need ......"

"Still need it? To whom? "Marin was curious. Anyway, it's not for yourself, after all, this ship is built by yourself, and it's impossible for you to take it.

"Have you forgotten my cousin's children?"

"You mean...... Children of the daughters of His Majesty Edward IV? Marin was stunned.

Edward IV still has more children, in addition to Edward V and Richard, Duke of York, who were killed by Richard III, there are five daughters alive.

In addition to Princess Elizabeth, who was Queen of Henry VII, and Princess Bridget, who became a nun, there were three other princesses - Cecily of York, Anne of York, and Catherine of York......

All three princesses were married and had children. Legally speaking, the children of the three of them all have the right to inherit the throne, and they are ranked very high.

Queen Elizabeth's child, Edward, could be executed in the name of the seed of Henry VII the Kingkiller. However, the children of the other three princesses are not easy to start. At least, there is no excuse to kill......

Even if the husband of the three, Edward, can find an excuse to kill them under the pretext of "rebellion", the children of these three cousins, which are royal blood, are not easy to use......

However, Edward was reluctant to keep them......

How did the "War of the Red-White Roses" come about? Isn't it the children of the royal family who, with the support of some, rose up to fight for the throne? The children of Edward's three cousins are all in the blood of the royal family of York, and if they are supported by any careerist, they will immediately become contenders for the throne.

Therefore, Edward thought about it, in order to avoid the recurrence of the "War of the Red and White Roses", and to learn from the practice of his sworn enemy Henry VII, he decided to cut the grass and eradicate the roots, and put an end to the future royal family......

However, it is easy to be blamed for directly killing these royal bloodlines, and even someone will find an excuse to overthrow them. What's more, the children of those cousins are still children......

So, Edward needed a way to get rid of them without being infamous. It just so happened that the glue-bonded boat that Marlin made fit this requirement very well.

Edward could pretend to allow his cousins' children to sail into exile by boat, and in the presence of everyone, the royal blood would be sent to sea from London on a luxurious ship. Then, under the wind and waves of the English Channel, the ships fell apart and the children drowned in the middle of the English Channel...... In this way, Edward would not have to bear the infamy of slaughtering his relatives......

Marin thought about it and thought that Edward's plan was good - to send the children on the boat in front of everyone and get rid of suspicion. And then if something happens to the ship at sea, don't blame me......

It's just that after thinking about it, Marin reminded:

"Your Majesty, don't forget a ...... alone"

"Who?"

"Margaret, the eldest daughter of Henry, the puppet king. Tudor, she's the queen of Scotland......"

"This ...... It's really hard to do......" Edward suddenly remembered, Margaret. Tudor had already married King James IV of Scotland in 1503. Although because Henry VII gave too little dowry, James IV was not satisfied. But there's no denying that Margaret. Tudor, the eldest daughter of Henry VII.

Once Edward captured London, killing Henry VII and his son Henry VIII, as well as the youngest daughter Marie (the future Queen of France, Louis XII died in her belly), Queen Margaret of Scotland. Tudor would immediately become the sole legitimate heir to Henry VII's Tudor dynasty.

Moreover, both Marlin and Edward could be sure that with the urine of James IV, and the French could not see England well, they would certainly support Margaret. Tudor became heir to the throne of England. Even if Margaret is not supported. Tudor is the Queen of England and will also support her son as the King...... This was the policy of the French and Scots – to keep England at peace for a day......

"This ...... We're going to attack Scotland and get rid of Margaret......" Edward frowned.

Scotland is not easy to mess with, their army is still there, tens of thousands of troops. Moreover, the terrain of Scotland is difficult to attack......

"That's right! The Scottish army has entered England! Let's knock it out! Edward patted his thigh.

"Knock out whom?" Marin didn't react for a moment.

"Scotland's army of ten thousand! As long as these 10,000 people are eliminated, Scotland, which has only a few hundred thousand people, will definitely not be able to slow down. By the time we have cleaned up Henry, what if Scotland is in danger without an army? Still not allowed to let us fight? We stormed Edinburgh and killed Margaret. Tudor ......"

Ma Lin said helplessly:

"Your Majesty, the destruction of Scotland is not included in our agreement. If so, I'm going to have to pay more! ”

"No problem, give you another Scottish county, just the area close to Northumberland, and double your territory!"

"Okay, deal!"

Then, Marin's army suddenly turned north and went to destroy the Scottish army......
