Your Mightiness

"Stop!" Richard II raised his hand and snapped his fingers in front of August's undisguised expression. He had to interrupt August's brainstorming. My nephew is good at everything, but he loves dogs too much. Blood plot, "I know what it feels like to love someone, don't forget your father and you. Well, you count as half, sorry, I'm just telling you now, but I really don't like it very much Your mother, Joan, is a good person, a beauty, and a relative of your father and me, but her shortcoming is that she married your father even though she knew she was not good enough for him."

"..." August wanted to refute Richard II, but he had no choice, because not only Richard II thought so, but the whole of England thought so.

Not everyone has the courage of his father to marry his third aunt.cough.The European royal family is so chaotic, August has completely given up on it.

Richard II: "I think I've been kind to your father."

August: It's not only good, but if I don't know that you are a stallion, my father has a deep-rooted affection for my mother, I would wonder if you are playing some strange German orthopedic play, okay?

"See, I can also be good to one person," Richard II positively testified to himself, "but the question is, why should I love my children."

"Huh?" August was taken aback.

"You are very lucky to be William's child; Mary is unfortunate to be my child. That's all." The meaning of Mary and others, in the eyes of Richard II, is similar to that of Raphael - he must not He doesn't accept their existence, but that doesn't mean he wants to like them, "I gave them life, for them to eat, drink and grow up. I think I have fulfilled my father's duty."

"Then why do you care so much about whether Mary hates you?!" August didn't believe it.

"I have a roommate who you think has a good relationship, and one day she suddenly said that she hates you, will you not care?" Richard II asked back of course, "I never expected Mary to like me, just like she doesn't like me." It's like expecting me to like her. But at least you shouldn't hate her? I don't hate her."

"...Then what do you want?"

"Peaceful coexistence?" Richard II frowned, and thought hard to give an answer, "The most familiar stranger."

Passing on one's own blood is something written in the bones of men; raising children without complaints and regrets is something written in the bones of women.At least Richard II thought so.He agrees that tiger poison does not eat its children, but he doesn't think it is worth sacrificing everything for the sake of children.

"After you imprisoned Mary in the Tower of London to be with her grandfather, do you think you can live in peace with her?" Even August wanted to laugh at Richard II's naivety this time.

"Probably not." That's why Richard II was so depressed, he was such a selfish person, he couldn't give his father, but he didn't want his children to resent him because of it.As for where he got his self-confidence, it probably comes from the fact that he is the king.What he faces all day long is a group of women and ministers who have to curry favor with him.

August completely gave up trying to understand his wonderful uncle according to his own brain circuit, he could only say: "It seems that you don't intend to ask Mary to forgive you."

Richard II was not in a hurry to answer, but asked instead: "Then do you think she will forgive me?"

"No!" August was sure.

"I think so too." Richard II nodded, "Then why should I work hard?"

"Uh, it won't make her really want to kill you?" Although Richard II definitely didn't think Mary had that ability, being resented by his children so much that he wanted to kill him was already very sad.

"What you said makes sense, so what do you think I should do?" Richard II looked up at August's dazzling blond hair, as if he saw his brother when he was a child, and he also loved this angle Looking down at him, he said helplessly, "What should I do with you, Richard", while helping Richard solve various problems in his life.

"I suggest, no, I beg you, let Mary go. You are not going to ease the relationship with her, at least not make it worse." Otherwise, Miss Mary will really want to stab her in the kidney one day.

"Then what about my decency?" Once Richard II stepped out of the realm of sorrow and sorrow, he was still the tyrant who hated everyone.

"You would rather be decent than a daughter?" August couldn't believe it.

"That's right." Richard II looked puzzled, "How difficult is this to understand?"

"..." You are extremely difficult to understand!

"You are indeed as William said, very funny." Richard II smiled, turned over... he didn't get up, and with the support of August, he sat on the soft bed beside him. After calming down, he continued, "Well, you give me an idea that can convince me to deal with Mary. If I think it's good, I'll do it according to what you said. If I think it's not good, I'll do it according to my way. You only have One chance, go."

"Then I can..."

"We can't ask for foreign aid." Richard II was willing to give August face, but it didn't mean that he would be willing to let the whole world judge him.And, who could August turn to?It's nothing more than Raphael's illegitimate son.

August was dumbfounded: "Can I think about it?"

"Of course, please feel free, you're welcome." Richard II shook the bell on the bedside.

The attendant knocked on the king's door immediately: "Is there anything I can do to help you, Your Majesty?"

"Give Orr a glass of cold juice, and bring me a bottle of Greek liqueur. Bring some snacks." The king was ready for a long-term fight against August.

But August quickly thought of it, and he asked carefully, continuing to sit on the bed and play the role of the lonely uncle: "Have you heard of rising brightly and falling darkly?"

"Of course I know." Richard II didn't like managing the government, but that didn't mean he didn't understand anything. Instead, he was curious how August knew this. His silly nephew could always bring him surprise.

"Then we might as well go up and down."

"kindness?"

"That's right, uh," August swallowed. In fact, he was extremely unconfident, and he didn't know whether what he did was good or bad for Mary. He could only rely on instinct, thinking of getting Mary out of the Tower of London first. Rescued, "Exile Mary to other counties, and don't meet again for a short time. Let's talk about it after the matter has passed."

"Exile to where? Oxford?"

"That's right." August nodded, "Well, Henry is a good man, and Mary will be very happy marrying him."

"Then what benefits can I get?" Richard II and August also talked about it, and they stopped looking for high-sounding reasons to cover themselves.He thought in his heart, this is the right way, he is actually very tired every time he plays the kind uncle in front of August, and he doesn't think that kind of hypocrisy can bring any positive emotions to August.If it wasn't for Prince Hei who wrote letters repeatedly to warn him, he wouldn't bother to pretend.How good it is now, he is relaxed, and he is more relaxed than August.

August was so choked that he almost couldn't catch his breath, and finally managed to speak: "The good thing is that at least in the future, your daughter won't even refuse to attend your funeral!"

This kind of thing is really possible for Mary to do, after all, Richard II prevented Mary from attending her mother's funeral.

"I can leave a last word. If she doesn't attend my funeral, she won't get any money." Richard II thought seriously, and then replied seriously, "Look, the problem is solved. "

"..." August understands why Miss Mary is always so irritable. With such a father, who can not be irritable? "You can force her to attend your funeral, but you can't force her to be sad for you willingly. Only my father will be sad for you at the funeral. Don't you think it's terrible? At least my father and I will feel terrible. "

With August's nagging father's iron-blooded and real man's character, he would definitely not shed tears, even if he was crying in his heart. He did this at August's mother's funeral.This is also the fault of William II, who made his son always refuse to show weakness in front of others.

"Then will you make me cry?" Richard II asked, holding his chin and looking at August with interest.

August was taken aback, and thought for a while: "Probably, yes?" After all, Richard II really treated him better than everyone else, and his character is also prone to cranky thinking, tears are not Can't stop.

"OK, the transaction is established." Richard II's attitude was still so casual, and he gave August a token, "As long as you promise that I will not see Mary again, you can take it to the Tower of London to pick Mary up." I have come out. I will find the right person to handle the rest of the matter." Mary should soon be able to marry and go to Oxford as she wished.

"Really?!" August did not expect such a twist!

"Of course it's true." Richard II has all kinds of bad things, but one thing is not bad. He kept his word, "But, are you sure Henry will marry Mary? He who has completely offended me on Mary's face Now."

"I don't know, but I think at least I should work on it and give Henry a chance."

"I'm looking forward to it." Richard II didn't seem to have much expectations for this. He was always full of pessimism about love. "Then, let's count the matter of you trespassing in my bedroom? You won't Do you think it can end so easily?"

"Sorry." August lowered his head. He was indeed prepared. No matter whether his trip was successful or not, the majesty of the king could not be challenged.

"Well, what should I punish you with..." Richard II's eyes rolled around, as if he was really telling him to think.

The longer the waiting time, the more uneasy August became.

After being in a good mood because of August, Richard II said: "I'll punish you to think about it behind closed doors."

Then, there is the long wait.

When August was sure that Richard II would not say anything else, he said incredulously: "That's it?"

Richard II nodded: "That's it. I heard it's called grounding, a punishment method after a child makes a mistake. I probably won't have the chance to use it on my children in this life. Fortunately, you have you. Remember, no Any entertainment." "No problem!"

"I say entertainment includes watching knights practice, hearing choir singing, and not being allowed to see Yale."

"No——!"

"Yes!"

"How can you stop me from meeting the people I want to see?"

"Because I am the king."

"..."

It was on that day that August realized that being a king is really good.And no matter how much knight training, no matter how good the choir is, it is not as important as a Raphael.

But in the end August accepted the punishment, because it was obvious that this was the condition of Richard II's invisibility.

As soon as August got the token, he couldn't wait to drive to the Tower of London.

The Tower of London is on the banks of the Thames and is a military fortress with different responsibilities.Like the king's palace, the armory of the knight army, and the prison of political prisoners.

The political prisoners mentioned here are not just anyone who can be imprisoned here.

At least during the reigns of Richard II and the Black Prince, there was only one prisoner in the Tower of London - the ex-King William II.Now there is Miss Mary, the king's daughter.

It can be seen how high the Tower of London is in prison.

But no matter how powerful it is, it is now just the view under the appearance of a castle.

Ravens fly over the white tower with small windows, carrying August's most primitive impression of the word "Gothic", eerie.He has been learning languages ​​recently. "Gothic" actually meant "barbaric" when it first appeared, which is far from the feeling that later generations understand.

She lost her again less than a few hours after the ex-king finally had a new roommate, and he didn't even have time to ask Mary what was going on outside.

August was very worried, but he couldn't go in. He could only wait outside the tower for Miss Mary to be brought out.

Mary was wearing the summer dress she wore before she was imprisoned. It was low-key yet luxurious, and the jewels on the jewelry were still bright. Except for her hair being a bit messy, she looked pretty good overall, and she didn't suffer too much.

Obviously, before Miss Mary completely lost power, no one dared to torture her too much, and it was not so fast to think so.

August is more concerned: "He didn't make things difficult for you, did he?"

Others dare not confront Miss Mary, but the people locked up in the Tower of London may not be.August never actually met his gay grandfather, only heard from the Queen Mother that he was a pervert who deserved hell.

Miss Mary was in high spirits, her chest held high, always proud, and she said to August, "It's him you should worry about."

Then, they left together.

August looked at the heavily guarded tower. He always felt that through a small and cramped window, he saw his grandfather flashing past. He had been tortured beyond human form, but he had to live on.

Miss Mary turned August's face forcefully, asking what happened during the few hours she was in prison.

In the end, they arrived at their destination together - Hampton Court Palace, where August was ready to fulfill his promise to the king and never let their father and daughter want to see again.

August was still explaining something cautiously, for fear that the result would break Mary.

But Mary hugged August vigorously, and the tight hug in the chest-buried style made August a little embarrassed: "Oh, my pudding, thank you, thank you, finally let me get rid of it." That devil!"

"Uh, you're welcome?" August tried to answer.

Miss Mary smiled all of a sudden, and rubbed August's nose affectionately: "Can you deliver a letter to Henry for me?"

"Actually, no. I'm grounded. But I think my knight commander will be happy to oblige."

"Thank you."

In the short days that followed, August was really forced to stay away from all entertainment, and the king even sent a man who looked very mean to supervise August.In fact, even if the king does not send someone, August's life will not be easy, because Miss Mary has been forcing August to develop better work, rest and eating habits since she lived here. All of Stuart's teachers were horrible, and August had to listen to her.

God knows how Elizabeth and the Crown Prince survived under Mary's hands for so many years.She was so serious that she always reminded August of his former middle school dean.

August's only respite was to attend the king's wedding.

Yes, the king's wedding was finally held as usual, shocking all the nobles who came to the wedding.However, they soon realized that although the king was still married, he did not marry the well-known Catherine Howard, but Catherine Parr, who had previously been invisible.This wealthy widow got married and became the new queen after only knowing the king for less than three days.

Richard II once again had the cheek to let the young attendant take the blame, saying that the queen was Paar from the beginning, but because of the same name, it was printed wrong again.

Attendant: ...I will never do this job again in my next life.

The new queen seemed to be a very nice person indeed, so she purposely approached August in private to care about Mary's life at Hampton Court Palace.

"Please reassure her, I will persuade His Majesty as soon as possible to let her return to Whitehall Palace."

Queen Catherine has always kept in mind her friendship with Miss Mary before she became queen. In fact, a large part of the reason she was willing to promise Mary to marry the king was because she hoped to improve Mary's life by herself.

"Don't worry too much." As far as Auguste has seen so far, Miss Mary quite likes her current life. Those who don't know will definitely think that her previous disrespect was just to get the life in front of her.She no longer has to be hurt by her father's anger, and she has a sweet life with Henry. This is the most free time she has ever lived after her mother's death.

"Please take care of her. I also have some things that Ms. Mary might need. Could you please pass them on?"

"Of course." August nodded. "By the way, please don't be so polite to me. We are already a family."

"My honor." Queen Catherine smiled, but obviously she didn't intend to do so.

Of course, it is impossible for Miss Mary to attend this wedding.Neither did her male companion, Henry.Henry did everything he could to ask the Oxford professor for a vacation of no more than five days to attend the king's wedding, but in the end he gave up because he felt that no one needed his company more than Mary at this moment.

This nerd can be said to amaze Richard II, he did not expect that Henry's true love for Mary turned out to be.To be honest, Miss Mary is not too beautiful, at least much worse than Elizabeth, and she has a bad temper.

Not long after the wedding, Richard II decreed to allow the marriage of Lady Mary and the Earl of Oxford.But they need to ensure that they will not return to London for half a step without a recall.

Miss Mary was dying of emotion, she felt that her father had finally done something to make them both happy.

Even Miss Elizabeth said enviously, "When will I grow up?" She also wanted to live in Hampton Court Palace with August, so that she wouldn't have to face the king with a strange brain circuit every day.

Cromwell was eventually beheaded, just the day after the king's wedding, and it didn't matter at all.

Raphael personally sat in the town to supervise, with a blank face, watching Cromwell step by step up to the execution platform, and the crowd below were full of anger at him, and his eyes were also full of anger, towards the king, towards England, towards this world.At the last moment, he pointed at Raphael's nose and laughed. He was not really happy, but a fear of death. Some people would start laughing unconsciously in the face of fear. He said: "Today I , is tomorrow's you!"

That sound was like a curse, and the voice fell, taking Cromwell's life at the same time.

This man who was once of a higher status than Archbishop Wolsey has completely become history, and he managed to be impressive at the moment of his death.

Raphael didn't even blink his eyes at this. He has always been too lazy to respond to the clamor of the weak.

That night, Raphael appeared at August's bedside.

August was taken aback, but followed by surprise, he couldn't wait to throw himself into Raphael's arms, hugging him: "I miss you very much."

"Me too." Raphael rubbed August's head.

"I think a lot these days." August was locked in Hampton Court Palace, and when he didn't want to study, he was only left in a daze and cranky. The place was so boring that Julie and Father Joe had to abandon it at the same time. Well, these two party animals don't know where to go for the rave these days.

"like?"

"Do you mind if I remodel your house?"

"I don't mind." Raphael smiled. "However, we will move to a bigger house soon. Your vision needs to be enlarged. Do you need me to send the drawings in advance?"

"Ok!"

"Actually, living in Hampton Court Palace is also..."

"Oh my god, why are your hands so cold?!" August realized how cold Raphael's hands could be when he touched Raphael's hand. At this moment when it was almost summer, This is obviously not normal.

"How do you think you got in?" Raphael's words were always prepared.

"Uh, the housekeeper let you in quietly?"

"I climbed up from the balcony, my Juliet."

"!!!"Are you crazy?Although August didn't say that, it was clearly written in his blue eyes.

Raphael continued to put his arms around August, as if he was about to inlay it into his arms, he said: "I just wanted to look outside Hampton Palace and left, but the moment the carriage stopped there , I suddenly miss you very much. I want to see you, so..."

It was rare for Raphael to be impulsive, just like what he should be at his age.

"I'm not Juliet." August had to say disappointedly.

"Then, Romeo?" Raphael didn't actually hear exactly what the story of Romeo and Juliet was about, but just heard August mocking it in a text message before—do you think you're playing Romeo and Juliet?

"No!" August didn't like Romeo either.

"Then what do you want?"

"I want to live with you." It doesn't matter the size of the house, whether there are knights or choirs, he just wants to be with Raphael!

"This wish allows you to have the Room of Requirement in Hogwarts." Raphael made another point.

"When will I use all of it?" August's ambitions are great.

"Wait until you grow up." Raphael gave August a soft kiss on the forehead.
