Chapter 103

ps: Ask for tickets, ask for hugs

"Your Majesty, it is my honor as a subject of England to serve you!" Udall, who was wearing plain linen and canvas shoes, bowed to Edward in a gentlemanly manner, and his temperament immediately changed. different.

"Okay, Mr. Udall, in fact, I appreciate your talent very much."

Edward enjoyed Udall's compliment for a while, and then said to him in an easy-going tone.

"I wonder if you would like to serve the royal family?"

"Your Majesty, I am willing, I am willing to serve the great royal family."

Hearing Edward's solicitation, Udall felt as if a pie had fallen from the sky, and he was a little dizzy, as if he couldn't believe it.

Immediately, he reacted, quickly nodded his messy head, and quickly agreed.

"This is really a pleasant decision!" Edward nodded, approving his decision.

"So, Mr. Udall, I have a task for you now!"

Seeing a serious expression appear on Edward's face, Udall immediately sat up, and his attitude became serious.

"Do you know the deeds of my grandfather, the late King Henry VII?"

"Of course, my lord, I am well aware of the deeds of King Henry VII. Up to now, many people are missing the good times of His Majesty Henry VII's rule!"

Hearing Edward's question, Udell answered without hesitation, with a look of reverence and nostalgia on his face, and even more exaggeratedly, there seemed to be a tear in his eyes.

Historically, in 1471, King Henry VI of England was killed by Edward IV, and the Lancastrian dynasty was replaced by the York dynasty. The Tudor family was also exiled to France.

In May 1471, Henry Tudor, who was only fourteen years old, as the only remaining male heir of the Lancaster family, was protected by his uncle, escaped across the sea, and came to Brittany, France, where he was regarded as Lancaster. The leader of the Sect. His mother, Princess Margaret Beaufort, remarried Lord Thomas Stanley in England, lurking in England under the rule of the York dynasty to plan for her son's future.

After the death of Edward IV in 1483, Richard launched a coup to abolish Edward V. On June 26, 1483, Richard himself ascended the throne and became Richard III.

In 1485, King Richard III's political actions aroused the dissatisfaction of the British nobles. Taking advantage of Richard III's low popularity, Princess Margaret was able to turn dissatisfied Yorkist supporters into supporting his son Henry.

Richard III's political enemies have sought refuge in Henry Tudor, who was in exile in France. Many proposed and favored the marriage of Elizabeth of York (daughter of Edward IV) to Henry Tudor. They saw this as a means of ending the feud between the Yorks and the Lancastrians.

One of the most talked about is a battle: the Battle of Bosworth.

After Richard III's attempt to kidnap Henry in France failed, Henry Tudor had more followers in England, so Henry Tudor declared himself the heir to the throne of the Lancastrian royal family.

On August 1, 1485, Henry VII set sail at Harfleur with the sponsorship of King Charles VIII of France. He was accompanied by his uncle Jasper Tudor, Lord of Oxford, and some knights in exile with him, and his fleet was fully loaded with some 2,000 French mercenaries. He made landfall at Mill Bay, near Milford Haven, on 7 August.

After landing, Henry VII was blessed by God. Simply put, he was like Emperor Han Guangwu, the founder of the Eastern Han Dynasty, and went extremely smoothly.

First he marched eastward, he first marched to Haverfordwest, then to Aberystwyth, and arrived at Aberystwyth on August 10, 1485, and on this way, No one resisted.

Then he continued to march east and northeast, not only easily captured Welshpool, but also occupied Shrewsbury on August 15.

After this he took Newport, Stafford, Lichfield, Tamworth and Atherstone.

On August 20, 1485, Henry Tudor camped in Atherstone. He sent someone to contact the great nobles (Norfolk family, Northumberland family, Stanley family) who were still in Richard III's camp. All of these families agreed to support him in his position.

What is even more exaggerated is that he only issued a call to action at the end of 1484, which was just his casual behavior.

But it inspired a team of nearly 5,500 people in the UK. This was in the Middle Ages. When did the people become so powerful.

Richard III realized that the situation was serious, so he mobilized a 10,000-strong army to fight. On August 22, the two sides fought a decisive battle at Bosworth in central England.

At this time, Henry VII only had 2,000 mercenaries, but when he came to fight Richard III, he had 10,000 troops, an army that had gone through the war. But Henry VIII still has 5,000 folk supporters on the way.

However, here comes the important point. At this critical juncture of the battle, Richard III's generals, Lord Thomas Stanley (Henry's stepfather) and the Earl of Northumberland stood still, while Lord Stanley's younger brother, Sir William Stanley, led 3,000 people to open the battle. After defecting, the York Army disintegrated. Richard III wore the crown and fought the enemy until he died.

His crown fell in a bush during battle, was found by Lord Thomas Stanley, and dedicated to Henry Tudor.

So, after only fourteen days of fighting, no, it was called marching, Henry Tudor became the king of England, and it was for Henry VII that he created the Tudor Dynasty in British history.

So, for this dramatic story, Edward felt that it was necessary to publicize it. It is necessary for the divine right of kings to be deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

"Do you think it's a pity that such an interesting and commemorative event is not written into a drama?"

Edward said in an exaggerated tone, it seemed that Udall had missed an important historical event.

"Your Majesty, do you mean to make the deeds of His Majesty Henry VII into a drama?"

Udall asked with some uncertainty, does His Majesty the King like drama?

"Yes, it's time for the whole of England to know about my grandfather's miraculous deeds!"

Edward said with fiery emotion, Udall felt that the eyes of His Majesty the King in front of him were burning hot, and his body was almost cooked.

"Your Majesty, are you sure that His Majesty Henry VII will be on the humble stage of drama?"

"Yes, I allow my grandfather Henry VII to appear in theatrical performances, and I allow someone to play my grandfather Henry VII!"

"As for those nobles who appear, I will help you get well, don't worry!"

Edward saw the hesitation in the eyes of Mr. Dramatist in front of him, so he assured him, comforting his fragile heart.

The status of drama at this time is very low, not to mention that the royal family is not allowed to perform, even the nobles are not allowed to perform, so there are no figures about nobles in the drama.

So, after more than an hour, inspired by the great King Edward, a Richard III offended God, and Henry VII received the blessing and revelation of God, and under the blessing of the great God, Henry VII came back from France , was supported by nobles and commoners along the way, and the story of defeating Richard III took shape.

In this story, Richard III became the villain, while Henry VII was the protagonist. He not only embraced the beauty, but also defeated the evil villain, and managed the people of the British Isles instead of God.

This is the outline written by Edward Udall. As for filling in the content, Edward instructed him to refer to the materials in the royal family.

As for the theme, it focuses on the background of the divine right of the Tudor royal family and the glorious history of the Tudor royal family saving the people of England.

Strive to achieve the level of nine truths and one falsehood, so that people will be convinced, and even become real history.

Looking at Udall walking towards the royal library, Edward heaved a long sigh.

I'm afraid that in the near future, there will be another type of historical war in the genre of drama, and I can count myself as an outstanding contribution to the development of drama! In the future, I might get the title of "Father of Drama".

Edward thought silently in his heart, the corners of his mouth slightly raised.

"Your Majesty, Mr. Guy of the Dark Blade, please see me!" Before Edward could finish lusting, he was interrupted by the maid Lucy.

"Call him in!" Edward ordered as if nothing had happened.

Soon, with brisk steps, Commander Gay came to Edward's side.

"My Lord Commander, why are you back again? What's the matter?"

Edward looked at Guy Ham, who was less than two fighters away, and asked with some doubts.

"Your Majesty, I just got a piece of news that the resentment of the citizens of London towards the royal family and your Majesty has risen sharply, and some even insulted you in public!"

Speaking of this, Commander Guy was filled with righteous indignation and excitement, as if the citizens of London were not scolding Edward, but him.

"Then, my Mr. Ham, why do the townspeople scold me?"

"Could it be that I did something heinous? It seems that I still don't have dignity!"

Edward felt that this was an unwarranted disaster. He didn't do anything, so why would someone scold him blindly? Besides, the frequency of scolding myself has increased recently.

So, Edward was still a little annoyed, and his tone became much harder.

"Your Majesty, according to what I have heard, it is mainly those small merchants who have offended you. Do you want me to deal with them?"

Guy grinned, showing an exaggerated and fierce expression, his yellow and black teeth were instantly seen by Edward.

"Then why are they scolding me?" Edward calmed down and opened his mouth to ask.

"I heard that the London City Council said that in order to celebrate Your Majesty's taking office, each person was charged an extra five pence a month!"
