How could Isabel not remember something about the current Majesty the Queen, the former Lady Latimer? She remembers that Her Majesty the Queen had told her about her marriage: the first marriage was in 1529, when she was 17 years old when she married Baron II Borough of Gainesborough. The second marriage was in 1534 to Baron Latimer III of Snape, who became the stepmother of the current Baron Latimer IV. And the third marriage made her a respected queen and a subject of the entire kingdom of England.

In these three marriages, Mrs. Latimer never loved any of her husbands. Even her current husband, Henry VIII, has never said that she is in love with His Majesty the King. Today, she can still enjoy the wealth and power that Her Majesty's title, status and status bring to her.

The fact of the marriage that happened to the good friend Madame Latimer and her sister Euphemia once again proves that the aristocratic marriage of this era does not need love. Perhaps, it is possible to fall in love with other male nobles after marriage. There is only one thing that must be noted that you cannot betray your noble husband in marriage. According to the law, the aristocratic husband has the right to exercise all the powers of marriage, and can even limit the personal rights of the wife.

Isabel summoned Caroline and her sister to speak with her in a private setting to prevent her from marrying Sir William Ingleby. However, so far, their thoughts, conversations, and all the facts have turned against her. What made her even more embarrassed was that if she didn't get married, it would inevitably threaten her parents' prestige and social status among the aristocracy in the north.

As for the impact, you can imagine it when you close your eyes. Suppose a noble couple comes to their father's estate, they will certainly ask themselves why they have not yet married. Then the parents used all kinds of excuses to prevaricate the past. When the parents visited the couple's estate a few months or six months later, the aristocratic couple again raised the same problem.

My parents could no longer hide it, so they could only say that they wanted to go to the convent to become a nun. However, the aristocratic couple said in a spirit of perseverance, "His Majesty has ordered the closure of almost all the monasteries in the kingdom, and Miss Isabel still intends to become a nun?" ”

The parents were reserved and didn't know how to answer each other's questions. At this point, their prestige and social status began to diminish little by little in the minds of this aristocratic couple and other aristocratic couples......

Isabel frowned and didn't dare to think like this anymore, picked up the wine glass on the small table next to her, and poured the wine from the glass down violently. As he put his glass on the small table, he said, "Do you think I have to marry this time?" ”

Caroline glanced at the tin wine glass she had placed on the small table, and said calmly, "Isabel, I don't know what you think of Your Highness or Lord Essex. You have to remember that these two high-ranking nobles are already married and have families. Even if you are willing to marry one of them, you will have to wait until after the two nobles divorce. ”

Euphemia also fanned the flames, leaned her face over and said, "Madame is right. Isabel, we, as your relatives, certainly hope that you can marry a high-class nobleman and have a large amount of wealth and power. But what if these two high-ranking nobles never divorced or if the lady was always alive? How much time can you keep waiting? ”

Feeling that she had been cornered, Isabel suddenly stood up and took a few steps forward and turned to look at the two of them, "You know, I don't want to step into the grave of aristocratic marriages!" ”

Caroline pondered and stared at her face that was about to turn angry, and nodded, "Are you talking about the rights of noble women in marriage, such as the right to make wills and control of pre-marital property?" ”

Euphemia nodded in agreement, "Isabel, why don't you start thinking about it now." ”

"After the last sword fight with Sir William, I had already thought about these issues that had to be dealt with." Isabel said aloud as she folded her hands on her hips and raised her head to enjoy the chill of the thick canopy.

"Sword fighting? My God, you actually engage in swordsmanship with your husband-to-be? You... Didn't hurt Sir William, did he? Euphemia looked at Caroline beside her in disbelief, and then turned her gaze back to her.

"My God, Euphemia, why don't you worry if I'm hurt?"

"Isabel, I've never heard of a guy beating you since before I got married."

Caroline leaned her upper body in the direction of Euphemia and whispered, "From now on, Sir William will surely become a veritable coward." ”

"Gurgle... Ma'am, you are quite right. Euphemia covered her mouth with the back of her hand and giggled.

"Stop laughing! Tell me, should I find a lawyer to discuss my marital rights now? Isabel yelled in anger, and almost drew her gauntlet and pointed her sword at the tip of their noses.

Caroline stood up and walked over to her, her voice still sounding gentle as she looked at her, "Don't worry, Isabel, we'll help you with marital rights." Now, all you have to do is relax. ”

Isabel couldn't bear to pass on her bad emotions to Caroline, who had experienced the pain of losing her husband, and looked up at the blue sky overhead, "Okay, I want to go swimming now." If you're willing to go with me, I'll be glad to do it. ”

Hearing her words, Yuphimia also walked up to her and smiled softly, "So, where do you want to swim?" ”

"Ripley Castle. William's bastard castle has a family lake, Lake Ripley. ”

"It seems that Sir William and his family are not despised by you."

A week before Sir Ernest's funeral, Isabel explained the reason to her parents, picked up Caroline and her sister and rode on horseback and led 60 saber guards from York. Nearly two hours later, the trio arrived at 9 a.m. on the east bank of Yorktown, where the River Uss runs through the city.

After some inquiry, the guards found a law firm on a street west of York Cathedral (the cathedral of the Archbishop of York). The narrow streets, lined with houses leaning towards each other, give it a strong medieval atmosphere. Some of these overhanging wooden buildings date back to the 14th century.

Because the street was so narrow that the cobblestone pavement in the middle of the road was only two horses wide, the three noble women had to let a large number of guards and horses stay in a small square on the east side of the street.
