To this, Edward nodded slightly, noncommittal, he didn't know how many times he had heard such words, which had almost become a mantra for the nobles.

And Princess Mary was the same, her face was not shocked, her beautiful eyes glanced at her, and then she recovered.

In this era of strict order, it is rare for ordinary nobles to see the king, let alone a noble child like him.

This is not bad, if it is from a civilian background, I am afraid that I will not even be able to speak now, and I will lose face in front of him.

It can be said that the gap between the nobles and the commoners is not only wealth and connections, but in all aspects, even if each of them is not much, but when it adds up, it is large.

The young captain volunteered to lead the way in front of him, with a polite and respectful attitude, which made a good impression on Edward.

In the future, when he is promoted, if he sees his name in the list, then his chances are much greater.

That's why so many people like to get close to the king.

Soon, led by the young captain, Edward and Princess Mary arrived at a bedroom of just over ten square meters.

When you open the wooden door, you will be greeted by a large boat covered with goose-down quilts, a beautifully carved wardrobe on the side, and a dresser next to the bed, on which there is a glass mirror of about a foot, and the whole room is neat and simple, without many decorations, let alone flowers, which does not match the identity of the princess.

Edward couldn't help this, it was arranged by Princess Mary.

Yesterday, Princess Mary had sent her maid over to decorate the makeshift bedroom, and Edward could not intervene.

And this is also in line with Princess Mary's Catholic faith, compared to other nobles, after all, it is still more simple.

Princess Mary glanced up and nodded in satisfaction.

"Sister, you can stay for a few days! It's all on board! Edward looked at his eldest sister, who was about to leave for a long time, and said goodbye, and did not know what to meet.

After getting along for more than ten years, they also have some feelings, and Edward has some sadness in his heart.

"Edward, these are all right, as a member of the Lord. How could I ask for so much? Princess Mary looked at her younger brother, who was about to become an adult, and said softly.

Edward was a little happy about Princess Mary's words, which meant that Princess Mary no longer suppressed her faith and began to relax her heart.

Since the Reformation of Henry VIII, the entire royal court, and indeed most of the nobility, have completely changed their faith, leaving the Pope of Rome behind and embracing Anglicanism.

And Princess Mary, who had always been hated by Henry VIII, could only suppress her Catholic faith and did not show it openly, for fear of annoying Henry VIII.

In such a lonely environment, Princess Mary's belief in Catholicism became more and more firm, even to the point of fanaticism.

Historically, after the death of Edward VI, as soon as she came to power, she hunted down Protestants on a large scale and was known as "Bloody Mary".

After Edward succeeded to the throne of England, he relaxed about Princess Mary's beliefs.

However, the noblewomen of England, who have believed in Anglican for decades, have no longer been able to talk to Princess Mary, and her heart has always been lonely.

Now, as she boarded the ship and was about to arrive in Spain, she suddenly revealed her faith in front of Edward, which proved that she was in a good mood.

I'm afraid that Princess Mary agreed to marry Spain because Spain is a Catholic country! Besides, Prince Philip heard that he was also a fanatical Catholic, so the Protestants in Spain would be miserable next, Edward suddenly gloated in his heart.

"Edward, may the Lord bless you and make your body better and better!" Princess Mary touched her brother who had been with her for more than ten years with her hand, her expression was a little sad, and then she restrained her emotions and blessed with a smile.

"You too, my sister!" Edward said with a smile as he looked at Princess Mary praying for herself.

Princess Elizabeth then knocked on the door and signaled to Edward that his time was over.

Edward pursed his lips helplessly and turned to leave.

"Goodbye, my sister!" After saying hello and saying goodbye, Edward walked out of the room.

Princess Elizabeth then walked in, closed the door, and spoke quietly to Princess Mary.

Edward didn't want to listen to these daughters, sighed, and slowly walked out of the cabin and onto the deck.

The oncoming sea breeze made him feel relieved, and the sadness when he parted was a little lighter.

As a king, you don't need to have too many of these feelings, just have your people and country in mind. Of course, to put it bluntly, it is rights.

At this time, the nobles on the dock turned their eyes to the cargo ships around the warship.

Even Edward, who was blowing the sea breeze, could hear the envy of the nobles, all of whom were saying that the king was really rich, the royal family was really generous, and the Spaniards were blessed.

Edward would smile at this, and that was the result he wanted.

The other three cargo ships were none other than Edward's dowry for Princess Mary.

As the princess of England, the dowry must be large, so as to reflect the great power of England and increase the prestige of Princess Mary.

A rich and powerful country as its mother's family, you must also think about the consequences before bullying Princess Mary!

No wonder the nobles made a fuss, the dowry of these three ships was worth at least fifty thousand pounds.

In this, there is a shipload of sea salt, yes, sea salt, about 50,000 pounds, which is just a day's production of the royal estate, at no cost, but the value has reached about 20,000 pounds, which is very affordable.

Moreover, Edward also wanted to open markets in Spain and Portugal, and if it went well, he also wanted to sell to the Mediterranean, which was a large part of the market.

There was also a boatload of paper, white and flawless paper. After being sold in England, it was so popular that each sheet had reached a shilling as much as one shilling, and in the eyes of those priests, only such a holy and immaculate blank paper was the best material to carry the word of God.

If the situation can be opened in Spain, where Catholicism is prevalent, then the Italian region and the Ottoman Empire will be huge markets.

The other was loaded with woolen wool and English textiles, which looked like a lot, but was worth less than £10,000.

So, Princess Mary's marriage not only brought an ally to England, but also a huge market for England.

Edward, on the other hand, developed England's commerce and allowed the nobles and merchants to pay some protection fees, so that merchant ships could accompany Her Royal Highness.

Sure enough, this is a political marriage, what about Princess Mary? In this regard, Edward could only shrug his shoulders and say, I am just killing two birds with one stone!
