"Impossible, how can you not know miracle dramas and morality dramas with such a weird expression?" The eldest daughter of Viscount Darlington was surprised by her words and actions.

Herbert, the would-be knight standing on either side, felt a little tempted to laugh at what the two were talking about. However, it didn't seem to be suitable in this atmosphere, so I had to turn my eyes in other directions. Isabel Walton rolled her eyes at her, and she wanted to say, "Isn't it?" I only know Shakespeare's Hamlet and Othello, so let me talk to you about decades from now? ”

Since these words could not be spoken, she could only say to Caroline: "Yes, I know miracle drama and morality drama. It's just that a secular drama adapted from a church liturgy is more important than my life? ”

Caroline shook her head with a smile on her face, pretending to be pensive: "Your life is important, and secular drama is also important. Well, well, let me choose your life first, and then choose the secular drama. ”

"Idiot!" Isabel muttered quietly and reminded Caroline, "You talked to me about the Seymour family just now, so what?"

Caroline paced back and forth with her arms folded on her chest, and said, "The new queen's blood comes from the blood inherited by her maternal grandfather, and her maternal grandfather's blood comes from the blood of Edward III and the Percy family, so she is not only related to His Majesty, but also to Anne Boleyn, who was beheaded. My God, my mother is the second sister of Earl VI of Northumberland, which means that I have inherited the blood of my maternal grandfather, the Percy family, and I am related to the new queen? ”

Isabel had been watching Caroline's self-talk and rambling, and she even wondered if she was suffering from schizophrenia. Suddenly, Caroline walked up to her and said excitedly, "Isabel, you know what? I just realized that I have a second cousin relationship with the new queen. ”

"Congratulations, Miss Swift. So, I can now assume that you are also a member of the Parcy family, and that you have become one of the masterminds behind the assassination of me? ”

"What, I want to assassinate you? My God, Isabel, how can you think so? ”

"As you said yourself, since the new queen has the blood of the Percy family, and your mother is also the sister of the current Lord Northumberland, you are also a member of the Percy family."

Caroline felt that she had a hard time arguing, and insisted on exclaiming: "Isabel, I swear to God, I have absolutely no intention of killing you. ”

Herbert Frederick, who had thought he would be bored and stayed with a torch in hand, was surprised by the fact he overheard. It is estimated that he did not expect that the eldest daughter of Viscount Darlington would be related to the king's new queen.

"Your Excellency......" Herbert whispered to Isabel, who just shook her head and looked at Caroline again, "Proof, you need proof that you are not behind my assassination." ”

"Evidence?? O God, merciful God, do you want me to prove my innocence with my life? Caroline raised her head and screamed hysterically, suddenly lowering her head and shouting at Isabel, "Okay, you need evidence, I'll give you it now." ”

After saying that, he grabbed the knight's sword scabbard hanging on the left side of his waist with his left hand, and with his right hand, he pulled the knight's sword from the sheath. The quick-eyed Isabel grabbed the cross of the knight's sword and said lightly, "Carly, it's good that you want to prove yourself with your life." What I want to tell you, though, is that death doesn't explain everything. ”

"And what do you want me to do? I just wanted to help you, and I never wanted to kill you. The more Caroline spoke, the more aggrieved she became, and her eyes seemed to glisten with tears.

"Perhaps, when the day comes to tell you the truth, you will do it." Isabel blinked in thought. Then he said to Caroline, "Perhaps, the people of the Seymour family don't pay attention to you at all, they only pay attention to those people or families that they think are worth paying attention to." ”

"What do you mean?"

"Carrie, which of your family or the Parcy family occupies a more important position in the hearts of the people of the north?"

"The Persy family, of course. Oh, and they should be called the Northumberlands. ”

"Look, that's not going to solve the problem. The Seymour family intends to seek help from the Percy family, who have a lot of power in the north, and the Passy family wants to gain more power with the help of the new queen, Jane Seymour. As a result, some of the bastards in the two families reached some kind of political alliance or alliance of interests. Eventually, the knights sent by the Parcy family to defend themselves against the Scots assassinated my father and me. ”

After Isabel changed the subject, Caroline's emotions were no longer so excited. After pondering the other party's words carefully, he said in a skeptical tone, "Since the two families want to have more power, then why did they assassinate Sir and you?" Isabel, if you're the new queen, this could happen. ”

Isabel crouched on the ground, looking thoughtfully at the corpse of a mercenary who was barefoot, stripped to his underwear. At this time, she turned her face to look at Caroline: "What if they want to assassinate His Highness?" Get rid of the most important people around Your Highness first, so that you can easily kill Your Highness. ”

"Kill the Duke? Isabel, you're so smart, why didn't I think of that? ”

"Kari, you mean to say that Her Highness has reached adulthood and is about to receive the king's favor in the court. But the Seymour family did not want to see the king's illegitimate son in power......"

"In the event of a sudden death of the Duke, they can also fabricate a reason at will, such as death from illness. In this way, an important opponent of the family in the court was successfully eliminated?! ”

Isabel suddenly felt that the Duke of Richmond was in an extremely dangerous situation at this time, and hurriedly shouted, "Carrie, let's go back quickly." Herbert, you and the others immediately rush back to the castle to protect His Highness. ”

Herbert didn't understand what she meant, and asked, "Your Excellency, are you saying that Your Highness is in danger now?" ”

"That's right, someone wants to assassinate His Highness. Go, go! ”

"Yes, Your Excellency."

Herbert, Conrad, and two of Henry's guards mounted their horses and disappeared on their way back in the blink of an eye. Isabel then followed Caroline and her bodyguard back to Nottingham Castle at a hurry. As soon as Herbert and the others returned to the castle, they immediately jumped off their horses and rushed into the main building, grabbed one of the servants and shouted, "Where is Your Highness??" ”

Following the servant's instructions, Herbert and the others ran outside the meeting room again. In the surprised eyes of the retainers, Herbert walked quickly to Henry's side and whispered to him: "Your Highness, Your Excellency thinks that you are in danger now, let us come back to protect you." ”

Henry's eyes widened and he looked back at him: "What danger?" ”
