Chapter 162: Henry II
ps: It's hot, ask for tickets, ask for tickets
"Yes, Edward!" Little Lori looked at him arrogantly, pointed to the four little Loli of similar stature and said, "They have played with me since they were children, and they are all my good friends!" ”
"Yes, Your Majesty, we are all good friends!" Mary, the best of the four, looked the oldest, and said to Edward without timidity.
"Well, well......" The other three Loli also nodded in agreement, their round faces were flushed, and they were very cute.
"Okay, let's play together! I'll come back later! ”
Edward smiled softly at the five little lolis, said with a spring breeze on his face, and then left, leaving them chattering non-stop.
The five watched Edward's figure gradually move away, and then they no longer held back.
"Mary, is he your future husband!" It was still the little girl of the Beaton family, the oldest, and her mind was more flexible, and she slowly moved her steps, walked up to Mary's side, and asked softly.
After asking this question, the little girl's face flushed, like an apple.
And the other three little Lori also flashed with big blue eyes, small eyelashes moved, looking at Mary with curious eyes, looking very interested.
"Huh! That's a shy question! Mary covered her little face with her hands and whispered softly, and then saw the four girls gathered around, and then whispered with a hint of joy and satisfaction.
"Yes, Edward is my husband, and we will live together in the future!"
In addition to being shy at first, Mary quickly became proud and talked about interesting things with her four friends.
"Every night, Edward would tell me stories, many, many stories, not only dwarfs, princesses, knights, and witches!"
"Isn't that kind of ugly witch who can do magic!" One of them, with long light yellow hair, was wearing a long white dress with a pink bow on the skirt, which looked extremely cute.
Her little pink face asked softly with a look of curiosity.
"Yes, the kind of witches with pointed hats, tattered broomsticks, and black robes, they're amazing......"
As soon as she said this, Queen Lori seemed to be tickled with excitement, waving her arms to describe the appearance of the witch, and then using exaggerated adjectives to express the description of the witch.
As she spoke sentence by sentence, the girls also cooperated with bursts of exclamations, satisfying Mary's vanity.
And Mary will then puff up her little breasts, look smug, and show off that this is her husband, and you don't have any.
Edward would not have known how Mary would later show off, and his own image would grow tall among the four Marys.
Edward walked aimlessly, greeting the nobles or councillors on the way, and Edward nodding his head.
As he walked, he suddenly found that the leaders of the four major families in Scotland didn't know what to discuss together at this time, and they seemed to be chatting happily.
And around them, there was a circle of flattering nobles, sticking their heads out, hoping to squeeze in.
"Your Majesty!" "Your Majesty!" ……
When the nobles saw Edward's arrival, they bent down one by one to greet him.
"Oh! Gentlemen, what do you want to talk about? So happy! ”
Edward looked at Count Aaron and Count Argyle and the others, and said in a joking tone.
"It's nothing, it's just some vulgar joke of the Scottish folk, lest it tarnish His Majesty's ears."
The gray-haired former regent, Count Aaron, on crutches, whispered.
"Oh! Is it? That's it. In view of this, Edward did not delve into it, and said mildly with a hint of a smile.
"Just now I saw a few girls from the family playing with Mary, and they all have the same name, it's really fate!"
Edward said with a look of exclamation, and everyone didn't know what he was going to say, so they could only echo this.
"You see, since they have such a good relationship, let them live together in the castle for a few days!"
"Your Majesty is also lonely, so I can accompany her!"
"This ......" Count Aaron and the others looked at each other, and they were overjoyed, they could have an opportunity to have a good relationship with the queen, and they couldn't ask for it.
"Your Majesty, yes, then those girls will ask you in the future!"
With a smile on his face, Count Arlen bent down to thank him.
"Okay, you guys talk slowly, I'll go first!"
After receiving a reply, Edward walked away on his own, and walked off into the distance under the gaze of the nobles.
The Scottish nobles were very pleased with the night.
Scotland is a poor place, and some noble spices don't meet a few times a year, but today I had a good meal, and my heart was much happier.
One night later, Edward's reputation for generosity spread throughout Edinburgh, regaining him a lot of popularity.
………… The dividing line of all evils............
These days, Edward would almost personally meet with Scottish nobles and parliamentarians, as well as some respected monks and influential merchants.
In the past few days, the news of England's conquest of Edinburgh has also spread to France with the merchants.
France, Paris, Louvre, the weather is a little hot today, which upsets King Henry II of France.
Irritated, Henry II wandered through the glittering Louvre, which, unlike his father, François I, was insensitive to works of art. However, in order to increase the king's reputation, he also collected Italian art every year to maintain this royal tradition.
He looked at the dazzling array of sculptures and oil paintings in front of him, and his heart became more and more irritable.
These reminded him of his father, François I, a treacherous and shameless man who, when he could take him back with his brother the Dauphin of France, had cruelly abandoned them at the hands of Charles V of Spain and subjected them to cruel torture.
Ten days after returning to France, his brother died, which shows how much persecution he suffered physically.
And this also created his cruel and murderous character.
Two years earlier, in the year of Edward's accession to the throne, he had personally set up a court of fire to persecute Protestants. And in order to retaliate against Spain, he encouraged the border troops to kill the border people in the Spanish region at will and provoke Spain.
At this time, he felt a fire in his heart, which burned him uncomfortably.
"Your Majesty, Duke Guise begs to see you!" A young maid said delicately.
"Bring him to me!" Henry II waved his hand and commanded directly.
Claude. Morality. Lorraine, the first Duke of Guise, since he was the second son of René II, Duke of Lorraine, in order to separate, his family is also the Guise family.
The fifty-three-year-old Duke of Guise acted vigorously and with a nimble pace, and there was no hint of a sign that he was going to see God next year.
"Your Majesty, the English have taken Edinburgh!"
