[Henry VIII] Tudor Crown

There are many ancient castles in Wales, and even won the reputation of "City of Castles" in later generations.Although time has changed and most of the castles inside have aging problems, Princess Mary and William Tudor will never find a place to stay, and Henry VIII also let William Tudor move into Wales. Pembroke Castle and Kidwelly Castle were refurbished so that the Prince of Wales would not be hit on the head by the weather-beaten stones inside.

"I remember that Anne Boleyn was named Marquess of Pembroke when she was in love with her father." William Tudor, who moved into his new home, was obviously not as familiar with Wales as Princess Mary, after all, the latter was nine years old. In [-], she was crowned Princess of Wales - only because Henry VIII wanted to take revenge on Queen Catherine who did not allow Anne Boleyn to enter the palace, so she was forced to separate from his daughter, and Mary moved into Ludlow Castle near the Welsh border, so that Catherine The queen understood his determination to have Anne Boleyn.

And when Anne Boleyn really became queen, everything seemed so ridiculous.

Henry VIII began to miss Queen Catherine, and Pembroke Castle did not belong to the Marquess of Pembroke, but fell into the hands of Queen Catherine's son.

"Okay, why are you mentioning her?" Princess Mary didn't feel that her younger brother took away the status of Prince of Wales. After all, based on her understanding of Henry VIII, this title would only fall to Prince Tudor.Therefore, she is more willing to let her own brother take this title than her half-brother: "Ambassador Sharpei told me that God will take revenge on those evildoers. Now it seems that what he said is true."

"Anne Boleyn only had a miscarriage once, and it's not like she won't be able to have children ever since." William Tudor, who left London, didn't want to pretend to call Anne Boleyn a queen, after all, what she did to Queen Catherine was still true. Vivid: "Instead of focusing on women's bellies, let's think about what we can do now."

"The three elements of national stability are soldiers, money, and food." William Tudor held up three fingers, and then pressed the first two one by one: "The soldiers are in the hands of the father, and the money is also in the hands of the father, so we What we can do now is to ensure that there is no shortage of food in Wales. At least before the disaster strikes, we must ensure that the people of Wales will not starve to death because of five consecutive months of no crops."

"What do you want to do?" Princess Mary briefly ruled Wales, but only in name, so her routine was limited to visiting chapels in Wales and handing out coins to the poor.

"The northern part of Wales lives on wool, while the eastern part raises more cattle. Its main crops are barley, wheat, and oats that the locals don't eat very much. Although vegetables and fruits are also grown, the output is very low, and even the basic local needs cannot be met. ”William Tudor asked Thomas Cromwell to get him the agricultural harvests of Wales over the years, and then asked someone to carry a strange-shaped plant.

"What is this?" Princess Mary looked at the mud-stained oval and the blood-red round object in the frame, showing a somewhat indescribable expression: "Don't tell me you want to eat these weird things. This , is this really edible?"

"Why not?" William Tudor asked rhetorically, "This is something Spain brought back from America. Even Cousin Charlie is eating it. Why can't we?"

Princess Mary decided to find time to ask Ambassador Sharpei, but before that, she had to have the mud-covered frame lifted down.

"I intend to let the people of Wales grow this crop from the Americas." After all, before "Modern Shennong" came up with hybrid rice, potatoes had always been a food fighter that disregarded all basic crops, using five times higher yields and powerful resistance. Hungry power conquered Europe and became the food that Peter the Great and Frederick the Great admired 100 years later.

"However, considering the acceptance of the people, it is better to find someone to grow these foods near the castle, and after the first batch of goods are received, it will be publicized that this is a new fashion brought back from America by Spain. Even the Spanish emperor said it is good to eat it. "William Tudor knew that potatoes and tomatoes were two major killers. The reason why they were not promoted until the seventeenth century was mainly because those European invaders who described themselves as superior people felt that they should not be with "uncivilized" people. Native Americans eat the same food, and they also believe that tomatoes, which are redder than apples, are definitely the fruit left by the devil.

As for how it will be really fragrant after 100 years.

It can only be said that one relies on propaganda, the second relies on policies, and the third relies on great famine.

In the absence of geographical advantages, William Tudor planned to make a fool of himself in Wales with the temptation of money and the celebrity effect from the Spanish emperor. After the local people have almost accepted it, he thought about promoting growth and becoming the second largest in the country. rich.

When William Tudor had a very good idea, Henry VIII moved into Hampton Court Palace with his own small court, and then at Princess Elizabeth's birthday banquet, he took a fancy to the queen's new maid.

That Miss Mary Sheldon from Kent has a plump, sexy, coquettish charm that does not match her actual age.Because she grew up in the countryside, she was more simple and charming than the maids in the palace, which made Henry VIII feel refreshed and at the same time made the middle-aged king feel young again.

So much so that on the night Miss Mary Sheldon entered the palace, Henry VIII slept with her, and then let Miss Mary Sheldon lie beside him for several days.

Looking at the adoring eyes of this little beauty who is two years younger than Princess Mary, Henry VIII communicated with the Duke of Suffolk with great joy: "Charles, I now understand why you fell in love with Derre Baroness Spie."

Since Mary Sheldon had already been identified as the king's mistress, Anne Boleyn's ladies-in-waiting were naturally headed by her.At the same time, because Mary Sheldon was sent to the palace by the Boleyns, Anne Boleyn not only had to endure her strong hatred for her cousin, but also slept with Henry VIII when his attitude eased.

For Anne Boleyn, who was once arrogant and needed to be coaxed and held by Henry VIII, this difference in treatment not only aggravated her psychological burden, but also caused Jane Seymour to suffer a lot. Like Boleyn, he can only hide in the quilt and cry secretly in the dead of night.

Fortunately, although Mary Sheldon was favored, the Boleyns and Howards did not intend to let her replace Anne Boleyn, and Henry VIII only wanted to look young and beautiful, so he had no intention of changing the queen for the time being. , so the queen's pregnancy checkup was still going on as usual, which made the Boleyn family, who had been frightened for a long time, heaved a sigh of relief, and soon got the news they wanted.

Anne Boleyn is pregnant again.
