At the end of the month, the English government | signed the "Berwick Treaty" with the Scottish rebels, indicating that Elizabeth formally agreed to openly help the 'Congregationalist' sect, ending the state of secret assistance that had been hesitant before.

In early March, British troops entered Scotland.

The atmosphere in the palace became tense. The patrolling guards were all sullen and serious. The maids, who usually love to play and play, also restrained themselves. Even the servants who did chores were cautious. Only one person was not affected.

"Hmph, what 'Queen of Glory', what 'Queen of Wisdom', bah bah bah!"

Jiang Xinyan nestled in the room complaining, full of accusations against Elizabeth, she could only speak out quietly, she felt that the descendants were blind to give such a high evaluation to that woman, she was obviously an unreasonable and shameless tyrant!

However, looking at her cold and abstinent face, at least the title "Virgin Queen" is not adulterated, maybe it's just a cold personality!

She was dizzy from being jolted on horseback that day, and she swore that she would remember this grudge for the rest of her life, and that she would take revenge on that arrogant and arrogant woman if she had the chance.

There was a sound of the door, Jiang Xinyan stopped talking to himself, and turned to get up.

"Miss……"

Jane, who went out in the morning, just came back, holding an exquisite box in her arms, walked up to her with red eyes, and whispered: "I can't accept these things. It is a great kindness for Miss to see a doctor for my mother. I misunderstood it before." For you, I..."

In the middle of speaking, tears suddenly fell like rain.

The box full of jewels was given to Jane by her. Anyway, I don’t feel bad when the wool doesn’t come out of my body. It’s just that I went to visit Jane’s mother with Olo that day. I thought it was some serious illness, and I was still nervous on the way. Killing, it turned out to be a little cold.

Fortunately, they rushed there in time and prevented the quack doctor who did not know where to call in from bleeding the woman.I heard it was a hairdresser.

Barbers in this era can do surgery part-time, but it is not the kind of operation that is extremely demanding on the environment as modern medicine calls it, but... holding a dandruff-stained knife to perform bloodletting treatment on patients.

Yes, bloodletting is the surgical procedure here.

However, Jiang Xinyan noticed another important point.

"Misunderstanding? What misunderstanding?" He took the box and put it aside, and hurriedly wiped her tears, "Don't cry, what's the matter, you see, we have known each other for so long, you are like my sister, why are you being polite?" .”

With red eyes in her eyes, Zhen couldn't breathe from crying. She really wanted to tell Jiang Xinyan what she had done, and tell her to be careful of Robert, but her brothers were still in Robert's hands, and she was afraid that she would leave now. At this point, you may see the dead bodies of your family members tomorrow.

She knelt down with a "boom", grabbed Jiang Xinyan's hand, and cried: "Miss... If one day you find out that I have done something wrong...don't forgive me..."

Just the day before yesterday, Robert gave her some heresy books and asked her to put them in the room together with the drawings, she did so, and then brought a few drawings out and sent a copy to every noble above the title of earl , Robert told her that the witch could be caught within a week at the earliest.

Things have developed to this point, and there is no way out. Although she is threatened and helpless, there are also factors of her own fault in it. At the beginning, she shouldn't have thought that she would be better off in the palace because of Jiang Xinyan's light, and she shouldn't have moved Once a person is not satisfied with the idea of ​​letting his younger brother escape military service, he will face an endless abyss.

Jiang Xinyan was bewildered by her all of a sudden, he felt that something must have happened, and suddenly panicked...

"You... what did you do wrong?"

The little girl just shook her head vigorously and cried bitterly.

A piece of paper was spread out on the desk, densely filled with the names of all the people who participated in the Christmas Eve assassination, without exception, against the remnants of the Catholic forces. Notice.

Elizabeth looked at the list with great interest, her knuckles were lightly clasped on the table, she raised her eyes for a while, and glanced at Worthingham who was standing respectfully. She knew that this man would never disappoint her.

"How much do you think this matter has to do with Mary?" She meant Mary Stuart, Queen of Scots, the current Queen of France.

"The poisonous skirt was written by the Guise Brothers. The French regime is currently in their hands, and they cooperate with the Queen Mother of Guise in Scotland. But Queen Mary knew about it, but she didn't make a statement."

The Duke of Guise is a great nobleman in France. Both brothers in the family are the uncles of Queen Mary, and they have gained real power through a marriage between the Soviet Union and France. It can be said that both France and Scotland are now dominated by the Guise family.

The former queen Medici was very dissatisfied with the actions of the Guise brothers. Her son became king, but was controlled by the queen's natal family. If we don't stand on the same front, we are still a family now.

Apparently, Elizabeth was well aware of this.

"That's tacit consent." Sneered, the slender knuckles pinched a corner of the paper and tore it to pieces. "It seems that my cousin is not only greedy, but also brainless."

Worthingham nodded, and he felt it too.

"Have the spies been sent?"

"It has been dispatched. The Queen Mother of Guise likes it very much." She imitated the appearance of the Queen with a sinister smile, and added: "After all, he is the handsome man who suits her the most."

"Then, it's time to clean up the people around us." Lightly parting her red lips, her hoarse and deep voice escaped her throat, and she made a gesture of wiping her neck.

"Your Majesty, please rest assured. In addition, my subordinates have found out the situation on Robert's side, but it seems that it has nothing to do with these..."

"Say."

"Two months ago he bribed an officer in charge of conscription in order to take away two 15-year-old boys, and they were the sons of the family Robert frequented. And... there was a daughter in the family She was an errand, entered the palace last spring, worked in the kitchen, and was assigned by Mrs. Ashley to serve the oriental guest in September last year."

Worthingham only met Jiang Xinyan twice. The queen took her to attend the meeting of the Privy Council. He heard that she came from the east, so he was quite impressed with that exotic face.

Deep and thick shadows covered those gray-blue eyes, flowing with dark and blurred colors. An ominous premonition lingered in her heart, and instantly triggered the uneasiness hidden deep in her heart.

What's up with Robert's idiot?

It suddenly occurred to me that Robert once teased her, snubbed him because of a foreign spy, and insisted that Jiang Xinyan was a witch, and Zhen was Jiang Xinyan's maid, the person closest to that girl, could it be...

Spring comes very slowly in high latitudes. It is already March, and the temperature on the British Islands can still make people shiver.

"Miss Jiang, what a coincidence."

A shrill and sweet female voice came from behind, Jiang Xinyan was stunned for a moment, then turned around, seeing Catherine Gray walking towards her with a smile, she felt awkward immediately.

Thinking of the last time there was a gift suspected of "a weasel giving a chicken a New Year's greeting" and the advice Olo gave her, this sweet and lovely girl suddenly became hideous in her eyes.

"Princess." She leaned over and saluted, keeping a distance from her.

"Don't be so polite, call me Katie." The bright and enthusiastic smile seemed to be full of sincerity, and he took a step forward to hold his arm, "Do you like that crystal swan? It was given to me by His Majesty, but I think it suits you better." , for you are as pure as its material."

This... sounds weird.

"I like it, the princess is being polite." She responded calmly, wanting to shake off the little girl's hand, because she couldn't get close to someone she didn't like.

Catherine didn't feel embarrassed at all, and said with a smile: "It's fine if you like it, we will be friends from now on."

"..."

How should she answer this?In terms of acting, her skill is less than one-tenth of Elizabeth's.

Suddenly, she thought of the tyrant again, and then, as if it was an illusion, she actually saw Elizabeth and Robert walking slowly, getting closer to them...

Why is it Robert again? !

Jealousy and anger flooded her heart, completely forgetting that she was the one who "cursed" Elizabeth in the room just now. She was fascinated by those gray-blue eyes that were shining with light, and she didn't even notice Robert next to her. Sullen eyes.

"Katie." Deliberately ignoring the dazed little face, she glanced at their arms together, feeling a little surprised, "Since when did you have such a good relationship with her? Don't you hate her the most?"

It sounds a bit ironic.

But the ironic person is not Princess Catherine, but her.

"Your Majesty, I asked Miss Jiang out for a walk. She is my friend." Catherine's complexion changed, she hugged her arms intimately, and she did not forget to glance at Robert with a sullen look in her smile.

"Heh, friend?" He sneered softly, his cold eyes filled with disdain and faint disgust, he glanced at the girl, and then looked away contemptuously, "You are the princess, the blood of our Tudor royal family should not be with you. She doesn't deserve to be a friend of this kind of person."

The casual tone and unhurried utterance of the insulting words shocked the three of them instantly.

Heart, freezes quickly and violently...

Condensing the heaviness in her breathing, it was like a thunder that exploded in her ears in time, awakening her soul immersed in the dream of self-made passion and beautiful fantasy.

She said she didn't deserve it.

It turned out that this was the real thought in Elizabeth's heart.

A trace of soreness in the chest spread to the tip of the nose, and the small piece of skin was completely red. Every delicate pore opened for breathing screamed silently. She wanted to escape, but her eyes turned red almost instantly. Before that, she lowered her head and leaned over: "Your Majesty, princess, my lord, I am not feeling well, so I will take my leave first."

Trying to restrain her voice from trembling, the rising mist had already blurred her vision, she knelt down to smash the ashes, touched the fat mass of soft hair, and held it tightly in her arms.

The moment she turned around, tears rushed down like a river rushing to the exit at a rapid and violent speed. Fortunately, she didn't cry in front of others.

The slender and petite figure quickly disappeared at the end of the corridor.

She knew it broke her heart.

And my heart was also pierced with holes by an invisible sharp blade, bloody and bloody...
