My British Empire

Chapter 156 Henry II

ps: The weather is hot, ask for tickets, ask for tickets

"Yes, Edward!" Little Lolita looked at him arrogantly, pointed to four little Lolitas of similar stature and said, "They played with me since childhood, and they are all my good friends!"

"Yes, Your Majesty, we are all good friends!" Mary, the best of the four, seemed to be the oldest, and said to Edward without hesitation.

"En, er..." The other three lolis also nodded in agreement, their round faces flushed red, very cute.

"Okay, let's play together! I'll come back later!"

Edward smiled gently at the five little lolitas, said with a smile on his face, and then left, leaving them chattering non-stop.

The five people watched Edward's figure gradually walk away, and then they stopped being restrained.

"Mary, is he your future husband?" The little girl from the Beeton family was the oldest and her mind was more flexible. She moved slowly, walked to Mary's side, and asked softly.

After asking this sentence, the little girl blushed like an apple.

The other three little lolis also had big blue eyes fluttering, and their small eyelashes were moving. They looked at Mary curiously, looking very interested.

"Ah! This question is so embarrassing!" Mary covered her face with her hands and whispered softly, and then she saw the four girls gathered around, and she whispered with a hint of joy and satisfaction.

"Yes, Edward is my husband now, and we will live together in the future!"

In addition to the shyness at the beginning, Mary quickly became proud and talked about interesting things with her four friends.

"Every night, Edward would tell me stories. There are so many stories. There are not only dwarves, princesses, knights, and witches in them!"

"Is it the kind of ugly witch who can do magic!" One of them has long light yellow hair and is wearing a long white dress with a pink bow hanging on the skirt, looking extremely cute.

Her pink face was full of curiosity, and she asked softly.

"Yes, those witches with pointed hats, battered brooms, and black robes, they are amazing..."

Speaking of this, Queen Lolita seemed to get excited all of a sudden. She waved her arms to describe the appearance of a witch, and then used exaggerated adjectives to express the description of the witch.

As she spoke sentence by sentence, the girls also rang out bursts of exclamation, which satisfies Mary's vanity very well.

At this time, Mary will puff out her small chest, with a frightened face, showing off that this is her husband, and none of you have it.

Edward would not know how Mary showed off later, and his image also grew taller among the four Marys.

Edward walked aimlessly, and on the way, nobles or members of parliament also greeted each other, and Edward nodded.

Walking, he suddenly found that the leaders of the four major Scottish families were discussing something together at this time, and they seemed to be having a good chat.

And they were surrounded by a circle of flattering nobles, with their heads stretched out, hoping to squeeze in.

"Your Majesty!" "Your Majesty!"...

When the nobles saw Edward coming, they bowed down one by one.

"Oh! What are you talking about, gentlemen? So happy!"

Edward looked at Earl Allen, Earl Argyle and others, and said in a joking tone.

"It's nothing, it's just some vulgar folk jokes in Scotland, for fear of staining the ears of His Majesty the King."

The gray-haired former regent, Earl Allen, said softly while leaning on a cane.

"Oh! Really? Forget it." In view of this, Edward did not delve into it, and said gently with a smile.

"Just now I saw a few girls from the family playing with Mary, and they all have the same name, what a fate!"

Edward said with a look of exclamation on his face. Everyone didn't know what he was going to say, so they could only echo it.

"Look, since they have such a good relationship, let them live together in the castle for a few days!"

"Your Majesty the Queen is also lonely, so I can just accompany her!"

"This..." Earl Allen and the others looked at each other, overjoyed in their hearts, and wished for a chance to have a good relationship with the Queen.

"Your Majesty, yes, then those girls will be entrusted to you in the future!"

Earl Allen smiled and bowed to thank him.

"Okay, let's talk slowly, I'll go first!"

After getting the reply, Edward left on his own, and walked into the distance under the watchful eyes of the nobles.

This night, the Scottish nobles were very satisfied.

Scotland is a poor place. Some aristocratic spices don’t see each other several times a year. I had a good meal today, and I feel a lot happier.

One night later, Edward's reputation for generosity spread throughout Edinburgh, saving him a lot of popularity.

...the evil dividing line...

In the past few days, Edward almost always personally received Scottish nobles and MPs, as well as some respected monks and influential businessmen.

In the past few days, the news of England's capture of Edinburgh has also spread to France along with the merchants.

France, Paris, Louvre Museum, today's weather is a bit hot, which made King Henry II of France very unhappy.

With an irritable mood, Henry II strolled in the resplendent Louvre. Unlike his father Francois I, Henry II had no sense of artwork. But in order to increase the king's reputation, he collected Italian artworks every year without interruption to maintain this royal tradition.

He looked at the dazzling array of sculptures and oil paintings in front of him, and his heart became more and more irritable.

These reminded him of his father—Fran?ois I, a treacherous and shameless man, when he could take him and his elder brother back with the French Crown Prince, he cruelly abandoned them in Charles V of Spain. At the hands of the world, let them suffer cruel torture.

Ten days after returning to France, his elder brother died, which shows how much his body was persecuted.

And this also created his cruel and easy-to-kill character.

Two years ago, the year he ascended the throne together with Edward, he personally set up the Court of Fire to persecute Protestants. And in order to retaliate against Spain, he encouraged the frontier troops to kill the border residents in the Spanish area at will and provoke Spain.

At this moment, he felt a fire in his heart, which made him uncomfortable.

"Your Majesty, please see the Duke of Guise!" A young maid said delicately.

"Bring him to see me!" Henry II waved his hand and ordered directly.

Claude de Lorraine was the first Duke of Guise. Since he was the second son of René II, Duke of Lorraine, his family was also the Guise family in order to separate them.

The fifty-three-year-old Duke of Guise is powerful and flexible in his steps. He doesn't look like he's going to see God next year.

"Your Majesty, the English have captured Edinburgh!"
