Regardless of the attitude of the people around him towards Isabel Walton and their suspicion of the real purpose of coming to Richmondshire, this time Henry made up his mind to go his own way. Even though his father, Henry VIII, would not approve of him marrying a commoner woman from the Duchy of Andorra, he still wanted to be with Isabel.

Henry, enjoying the first love of his life, casually said to his governess, "Teacher Abraham Grant, you have also become curious about Miss Walton, have you?" ”

Abraham smiled and expressed his opinion, i.e., agreeing with the distinguished student's statement. Henry then glanced at the former knight captain and governess sitting on the left and right and said, "All right, Mr. Grant, Sir Augustine, it's time for Mass, let's go to church." ”

In fact, Henry Fitzroy, who had just turned 15 this year, was still in the stage of his education, and he could attend Mass every morning without going to church every morning like an adult aristocrat. Under normal circumstances, he would only attend Mass on Sunday, Christmas, Easter and other major holidays.

However, every ordinary person with status or position in the whole of Richmondshire and Nottingham Castle, as well as the knights of the castle, would go to the Nazareth church in the castle at 9 o'clock in the morning every day to attend Mass.

During the Mass, which only Father Boniface Thomas is qualified to preside over and administers in Latin, every ordinary person and knight present invokes God's blessing and atonement for their sins. Confess their sins and sins to God through repentance in order to seek God's forgiveness, so that they can feel less guilty and devote themselves to life or battle with repentance. Such religious activities were essential in the run-up to battles and judicial duels, and they often went to church to attend Mass on days of peace.

On the suggestion of Father Thomas, then Archbishop Edward Stafford of the Church of England in York, the church built inside Nottingham Castle should be named Richmond Cathedral. Because both in terms of appearance and interior sophistication, this church is in no way inferior to York Minster, the cathedral of Archbishop Stafford.

However, what did not understand Father Thomas and Archbishop Stafford was that His Majesty Henry VIII, the current King, had named the church the Church of Nazareth in the year of the birth of the Duke of Richmond. Nazareth, a small city in ancient Galilee, doesn't even appear in the Old Testament or some of the Middle Eastern histories.

Later, Archbishop Stafford found a large number of texts in the New Testament of the Bible, such as "Jesus of Nazareth", and he instantly understood the painstaking efforts of His Majesty. Because Nazareth was the home of Jesus' parents, Joseph the carpenter and the Virgin Mary, legend has it that Jesus spent his teenage years in the village of Sashoea, near the city.

Comparing the birth and upbringing of the Lord Jesus with the life experience of Henry Jr., it can be shown that Henry Jr. was neither born in the illustrious royal family of England, nor grew up in a famous city like London. He was raised as an illegitimate child in a small northeastern castle called Richmondshire, which was despised.

Just as the Lord Jesus was so lowly that he was able to draw close to the weak, to understand the plight of those who are suffering, and to have compassion for all those who are suffering, Henry VIII strongly hoped that his illegitimate children could live like the Lord Jesus.

In the Nottingham Castle Guard Quarter, Isabel Walton, after settling and feeding her horses, prepares to begin wiping the light cavalry armor and two knightly swords. At this moment, Sir Alex Ferguson, who was temporarily the captain of the guard, came into the room and said to her, "Squire, put down Sir and follow me." ”

Isabel looked up at him and said, "Sir Alexand, where are we going?" ”

"Church. Squire, you won't forget to watch Mass every morning, will you? ”

"Oh, of course not. Uh, is everyone in the castle going to church? ”

"No, only His Highness, Teacher Grant, Sir Augustus and the knights of the Guard, and some people who have positions here."

"Okay. If you miss work because of this, you can't blame me. ”

"Let's go, Squire. Sir said that His Highness was in a very good mood today. ”

Isabel put down the cavalry armor in her hand, stood up and glanced at the captain, and said contemptuously, "Sir, does this matter have anything to do with me?" ”

Ferguson didn't understand her words, scratched the back of his head a little strangely and said, "Squire, I think what you're saying is weird. ”

"Weird? Sir, do you mean to say that I am still a witch, even though I am now Sir Augustine's squire? ”

"Maybe. Squire, the mood of the lord can determine whether we can be rewarded in large quantities. For example, weapons, armor, horses, food, and wine. ”

"I'm sorry, sir. I'm just a squire, not a knight. ”

Henry and his party soon arrived at the typical Gothic church to the southeast of the castle, followed by Isabel followed by Sir Alex Ferguson and other would-be lancers. At this moment, the mechanical tower bell installed in the central spire of the church rang a melodious and far-reaching bell. One, two, three...... until it is full of nine hits.

Church, Isabel had been to more than once with her mother while living in the small town of Dallas. However, the biggest difference from the medieval Catholic church in front of her was that she and her mother went to a Protestant Southern Baptist church.

She could barely remember the last time she went to church. Perhaps it was because she couldn't accept the conservative faith stance of the Southern Baptist Convention or the reason for time that she didn't go to church for a long time to do some things that a church should do, such as reading the Bible, praying, doing good, meeting, and evangelism.

What a crazy thing it is to let a young modern woman who was once a Protestant and then gradually left the church step into a more conservative, and near-mid-medieval English Catholic church.

Henry glanced at the people present, and when he suddenly saw Isabel standing behind Ferguson, he almost called out the other person's name. Sir Augustine, standing to Henry's right, noticed that his lord was a little startled, and when he followed Henry's eyes, he found his squire, Isabel Walton.

Sir tilted his head a little to the right and whispered to Henry, "Your Highness, Father Thomas's Mass is about to begin. ”

Henry's eyes did not take his eyes off Isabel's countenance, but only nodded slightly mechanically and said, "I see, Sir." ”
