After spending Pentecost immediately following the Ascension Day (the Church has designated the 50th day after Easter as Pentecost every year), a council of 10 nobles and knights from the city of London came north to settle in the Duke of Richmond's Nottingham Castle.

In the midst of this large army of nobles and knights, Isabel Walton, the acting overseer of Richmondshire and Nottingham Castle, spotted the Earl of Surrey. This shows that her previous efforts played a key role, and Henry VIII did not listen to the false accusations of Queen Seymour's family members, nor did he make the decision to imprison the Earl of Surrey.

After more than 10 days of investigating the effects of the rebellion, the Council came from the direction of the city of London with the shocking news that 216 rebel leaders who had participated in the "Parade of Grace" had been sentenced to death after being tried by the Star Chamber and the Supreme Justice. In addition, Henry VIII also issued a decree to recover and supervise the titles and lands of the rebel leaders.

The title of Baron Haswell, who was sentenced to be hanged, was withdrawn by the Crown and the land became part of the Crown Domain, Richmondshire. The baron's family fortune was also gifted by Henry VIII to his illegitimate son, the Duke of Richmond. However, the Duke of Richmond transferred all of the Baron's fortune to Isabel Walton, a young woman he had always loved. From this point on, Isabel became the true custodian of the Crown of Richmondshire, and whatever decisions she made or the orders of the Privy Counsellor were issued in the name of King Henry VIII.

The rest of the executed northern nobles, gentlemen, and jomanon lands were temporarily placed under the control of the royal family, pending the re-awarding of them by Henry VIII to nobles or knights who served the royal family. His personal property was confiscated and paid to the nobles and their troops who participated in the suppression of the rebels.

After the high-ranking and arrogant Viscount Darlington and his eldest son were executed, the remaining four family members were instantly destitute. There was no land, no property to use to sustain themselves, and even the Bad Chester estate, on which they depended, became royal property. Caroline's mother died of illness while her father, Viscount Darlington, was imprisoned, and her brother Joseph's wife, after hearing of her husband's execution, also took her children to marry a middle-aged widowed knight in Cumberland.

When the lonely and miserable Ka-Swift became a female homeless person, her only female companion, Isabel, reached out to her selflessly and saved her in time. On the day Viscount Darlington's estate was confiscated, she sent someone to bring the dejected Caroline to Asker Manor, so that everyone in the estate still regarded her as a noble lady.

At this time, Herbert and Ernest, who had been knighted by Henry VIII, were also waiting for the appointment of their posts. Sir Herbert Frederick was the Chief Guard of Darlington Castle and nearby towns in County Durham, and Sir Ernest Walton was Chief of Guard of Barnard Castle and nearby towns under County Durham.

On the face of it, Henry VIII ordered two knights loyal to his illegitimate son, the Duke of Richmond, to garrison two castles in County Durham, stripping some of the Earl Bishops of Durham of their jurisdiction over the lands in the county. In fact, Sir Herbert and Ernest have an unusually close connection with Isabel who is hidden behind the scenes.

With the scepter of royal power planted in the land of the "independent kingdom" of Durham County, Isabel's power and related personnel also began to openly enter the northern counties. Influencing the Duke of Richmond, and thus Henry VIII, laid the groundwork for Durham, Cumberland, and Northumberland to become her sphere of influence.

On the fourth Sunday in June 1537, after Sunday Mass, Isabel came to the room designated for Caroline to live. As soon as she got out of the room, a maid waiting outside the door saluted her: "Miss, Miss Caroline is not in the room. ”

"Well, where is she?"

"I see that she looks like she's gone to the back garden."

Isabel turned and walked towards the back garden of the estate. When she finds Caroline by the fish pond in the back garden, she finds that the other party is still depressed. A few of them pulled off their high riding boots and stockings, and sat down beside Caroline. Looking up at the sun that had just risen in the sky, he smiled lightly: "Well, it seems that today will be a sunny day." ”

Caroline, who was sitting on the grass, glanced coldly at the barefoot royal domain supervisor beside her, and then looked at the water surface of the pond and said, "Royal domain supervisor, what are you doing here?" ”

Isabel grabbed a piece of grass and took the stem of the grass in her mouth, "I'll do whatever you do here." ”

"Really? What if I wanted to jump into this pond and let my face of the common people forever look out at the secular society outside under the murky waters? ”

Isabel seemed to turn a blind eye to the other party's extremely unfriendly attitude, and just nodded seriously: "Good idea. Carolyn, did you know that it's going to be a wonderful affair when you're underwater and looking at the secular society beyond the water. ”

Caroline was about to get up and decide to jump into the pond when she felt her right arm grabbed by a hand. Isabel grabbed her arm and deliberately widened her eyes, and said in surprise, "Hey, you don't really want to jump into this pond, do you?" ”

"Do you think I'm joking?"

"Well, since you're not kidding, I'll show you a place where you can jump in." When Isabel saw that the other party no longer stood up, she came up with a not-so-bad idea.

"Where?"

"Well, you'll know when you go."

Seeing that the other party agreed to her suggestion with silence, Isabel stood up, tucked her socks into her high riding boots, put them on again, and walked easily on the grass with the grass stems in her mouth. Caroline followed her as she stared at her bare feet, which had nothing at all, "Why are you taking off your socks and boots?" ”

Seeing that she was willing to follow her back, Isabel said happily, "Actually, it's really comfortable to step on the grass barefoot, you can try it." ”

"Really? I've never tried to step barefoot on the ground, because only homeless people or tenant farmers do that. ”

Isabel didn't say what she was as an outcast, just grinned at her: "No one will laugh at you, and no one will ask you why you are barefoot." Don't hesitate to do what you want. ”

In the end, Caroline hesitated and stopped. Sit on the grass, take off your riding boots and socks, and get up again. The expression looked a little uncomfortable but no longer adhered to the lifestyle of an aristocratic woman, looking at Isabel beside her, she pouted: "The soles of my feet are a little itchy." ”
