After the death of Bishop Wolsey, Thomas Cromwell quickly took over all the contacts of the former master, and immediately arranged a way out for Bishop Wolsey's illegitimate son.This made many people who followed Bishop Wolsey a little bit astonished, and even had various speculations about Thomas Cromwell, an unknown man.

"I heard he, like Wolsey, was of commoner origin."

"Tsk! Just as a pig butcher is sent away in the palace, a vagrant is about to be ushered in. Why does His Majesty always like to let lowly people serve him? Thomas Wolsey is like this, and so is Charles Brandon .”

"Hush, keep your voice down, dare to criticize the king, you don't want your head?"

"What are you criticizing! I'm not telling lies. Besides, if I don't tell, can they cover up their origins? In my opinion, Thomas Cromwell and Charles Brandon are a pair of wisteria brothers , relying on the favor of His Majesty the King to achieve success, and then use a marriage of nobles to cover up his humble origin."

In the face of the whispers in the palace, Thomas Cromwell stepped on the carpet of the Whitehall Palace without turning his head, causing his companion, Edward Seymour, to look sideways: "Mr. Cromwell, Didn't you hear their talk?"

"If you mean the arguments of ignorant people, then I did hear them." Thomas Cromwell's voice was like the voice of a machine on an assembly line, and there would be no big ups and downs at any time: "Besides, I don't need to Justify the facts."

"Then do you admit that you are a vagrant?" Edward Seymour was a little playful.

"Yes." Thomas Cromwell answered bluntly, making the troublemaker choke.

At this time, a maid holding a skirt in her arms passed by them, but was grabbed by Edward Seymour, who almost tripped over the decorations on the aisle.

"What's the matter, Jane? What happened to make you turn a blind eye to your own brother." Edward Seymour supported the maid, who was his sister, Jane Seymour, to stand firmly.She used to be Queen Catherine's maid, but after Queen Catherine moved to Richmond Palace, Jane Seymour, under the pressure of Edward Seymour, refused the invitation to go with Catherine and her daughter, and instead served Anne Bo Rin so that she can give feedback to the two brothers about the king's private situation.

Jane Seymour's face still had tears of shock.At this time, although she has been in the palace for many years, she is still just a little Tudor woman in her early twenties with little experience.Because Queen Catherine's maids are known for their calmness and piousness, it is difficult for Jane Seymour, who spent her teenage years under such circumstances, to adapt to the French passion brought by Anne Boleyn, and because of Anne Boleyn's every move And fearful, trembling.

"Is that woman who often goes crazy trying to find fault with you?" Edward Seymour carefully looked at his sister's face, and after finding that there was no trace of punishment on her body, he was slightly relieved and asked, "It's not like It's Lady Anne's clothes."

Since she was accepted into Whitehall Palace by Henry VIII, the clothes on Anne Boleyn have become more and more gorgeous, and there is not even a day that is not surpassed.

And what Jane Seymour held in her arms was a plain, conservative dress in the English style, and it was also one of the most unlikely styles to appear on Anne Boleyn.

"What? The bull in England is looking for his Europa again? He angered the Gorgon next to him?" Edward Seymour, who had already guessed what happened, comforted his sister, but also sarcastically said: "Which family has the courage to attract the attention of His Majesty the King under the strict guard of the Boleyn and Howard families?"

"It's a girl from the Howard family." Jane Seymour kept replaying the scene of Anne Boleyn and Henry VIII's quarrel in her mind, and she trembled: "It was the girl who entered the palace to serve Ms. Anne a few days ago. Niece of the Duke of Norfolk, Mary Howard."

"Ah! I thought Anne Boleyn would be happy to accept her cousin, just as she happily climbed onto the bed with her sister's body temperature, and together with Mary Boleyn, helped the Howard family and Boleyn It’s like the Lin family wins over the king.” Edward Seymour said disdainfully at Thomas Cromwell: “Did you know that girls from the Norfolk family have a new title in the court.”

"The king's whore."

"The Duke of Norfolk is really willing to give away two nieces. It is not enough to let his niece help Anne Boleyn's favor. Are they looking at the next queen, must it come from the Howard family or the Boleyn family? ?" Edward Seymour glanced at Jane Seymour, and lamented that his sister's pale face and even paler personality were really difficult to attract the attention of the opposite sex.

"It would be great if the Seymour family had such a useful girl." Although in terms of blood, Edward Seymour is Anne Boleyn's second cousin and the cousin of the Duke of Norfolk.But there is a layer of blood, and the arrogant Duke of Norfolk does not think that the declining Seymour family is worthy of his investment, so the four Seymour brothers and sisters can only find another way out.

When Anne Boleyn's elder brother was already a viscount, the Edward brothers still succumbed to the post of small bodyguards, fighting for the lowest title.

This made Edward Seymour lament the injustice of fate and the importance of connections in his day-to-day jealousy.

"Is Queen Catherine dying?" Thomas Cromwell suddenly asked silently, "I heard that His Majesty sent a medical team to Richmond Palace. I wonder if they have brought any good news."

"Oh! What is the good news?" Edward Seymour continued to ask in a strange tone: "For His Majesty, it is good news that Queen Catherine will go to heaven sooner. As for Anne Boleyn..."

Edward Seymour seemed to have thought of something that made him happy, and turned to gloating: "If she can become queen smoothly, His Majesty the King will not bother us."

"What's the matter? Did something happen to Ms. Anne?" Jane Seymour was puzzled: "His Majesty's affection for Ms. Anne is obvious to all. If there is no accident, she should be the next queen."

Speaking of this, Jane Seymour's voice hesitated and awkward for a moment: "It's just that Ms. Anne is not popular, and her background is not enough to be a queen."

"Not only is it not enough to be the queen, but now the entire Christianity is against His Majesty's letting such a notorious woman take the place of Queen Catherine." Edward Seymour said bluntly: "The Pope of Rome declared that Anne Boleyn was lurking beside the king. Protestants, if the king insists on marrying her, all Catholic countries will be enemies of England."

"And His Majesty the King didn't want to give up Anne Boleyn, so he asked the House of Representatives to draft a bill to separate from the Holy See and make the King the head of the church."
