[Henry VIII] Tudor Crown

"Reduce fire to beheading. Having an adulterous queen is shameful enough, why don't you let the whole of Europe know that I married a witch?" Henry VIII who got the result of the trial just glanced at it in a hurry. Throwing the trial book aside, he motioned for the stopped band to continue playing: "I hope to marry the new queen before June, so Anne Boleyn's execution cannot be delayed until the end of this month, do you understand?"

"Yes." Thomas Cromwell knew that Henry VIII couldn't wait to marry Jane Seymour, and even on the day Anne Boleyn was thrown into the Tower of London, the king made Jane Seymour's brother-in-law Moved into Whitehall Palace, and also named Jane Seymour's brother Edward Seymour as Viscount Beauchamp, and promised to make Edward Seymour the earl after Jane Seymour gave birth to the Duke of York.

In this regard, the Seymour brothers, who ascended to heaven overnight, were overjoyed, but Thomas Cromwell noticed something was wrong.

His Majesty, though preparing for the engagement and marriage of Jane Seymour, did not allow Thomas Cranmer or Bishop Gardiner to prepare for the coronation of the new queen.

You know, Henry VIII's first two wives were crowned queens within half a month of their marriage, so the king's wedding ceremony and the queen's coronation ceremony were prepared at the same time, just because the latter had to add a It is a nationwide tour, so it takes an extra half a month to notify various places to do a good job of reception and security.

"Your Majesty, Madam Anne has one more request regarding the death penalty."

"If you're asking for forgiveness, that's fine." Henry VIII said very annoyed: "What she repeated over and over again was those few sets of rhetoric. If a word of 'love' can offset death, then Anne Boleyn can keep talking until God is gone again." Send a Noah's flood."

Thomas Cromwell choked on Henry VIII's attitude, but quickly recovered his mood and said, "Mrs. Anne wants to hire a professional French swordsman to cut off her brain."

Henry VIII raised his eyes in surprise, knocked on the armrest a few times with his fingers, and said, "Someone find her a professional swordsman from Calais, and remember to ask her to pay the swordsman herself."

"Yes." Thomas Cromwell was just about to step back, but he heard Henry VIII continue: "Remember to send someone to check the properties of the Boleyn family, and then ask Miss Elizabeth to hand over her jewelry and hand over all the maids around her. Go back, leaving only two tutors, a cook, and two maids to take care of her."

"In addition, reduce Miss Elizabeth's annuity to one hundred pounds, let her pay the salaries of her entourage herself, and move to a small house in Hertfordshire, and she is not allowed to enter the palace except for special circumstances." Because Anne Boleyn Henry VIII now dislikes Miss Elizabeth who has been demoted as an illegitimate daughter, and even suspects that Miss Elizabeth is not his own flesh and blood.

"Yes." Thomas Cromwell couldn't help feeling sorry for Miss Elizabeth, but the king's wishes were beyond his control, so Thomas Cromwell could only do something for Miss Elizabeth in private, so as not to fall out of favor. The ignorant girl was made things difficult by the evil servant.

After Thomas Cromwell withdrew, Henry VIII clapped his hands towards the closed door, and let Mary Sheldon, who was hiding in it, come out to hang out with him.

Considering that Jane Seymour would not have a relationship with Henry VIII before marriage, the king who couldn't bear the loneliness could only recruit the mistress who had been kicked out before into the palace.It happened that Mary Sheldon was going to be investigated by the queen for adultery, and she had nowhere to go after the collapse of the Boleyn family, so the Duke of Norfolk sent her to Henry VIII quietly, asking Mary Sheldon to play her The strengths of Henry VIII made Henry VIII stop the anger of revenge in time, so as not to bring disaster to the Howard family.

On the day Anne Boleyn was formally executed, Henry VIII and Jane Seymour were engaged on crutches in the chapel of Whitehall Palace.

Considering the king's physical condition, the process of the engagement ceremony was cut down a lot, and the participants were only the family members of both parties and a few close friends of the king.And during the routine prayers of Archbishop Gardiner, Henry VIII kept looking at the sky outside the door, as if waiting for something.

This made Princess Mary in the first row couldn't help asking William Tudor: "Why does father always look out the door?"

"Because he was waiting for the salute.

"What salute?"

"Anne Boleyn's death salute." William Tudor noticed Princess Mary's pale face, and quietly took her hand: "Father will use Anne Boleyn's death salute to announce that he is free The shadow of the witch is cast away, and a new day is ushered in."

William Tudor never saw a man go so mad as to be engaged to his ex-wife's handmaid the very day he was executed.

"What about Liz?" Princess Mary glanced at the people participating in the engagement ceremony, and found that Henry VIII's family seats, apart from their siblings, were only the Duke of Suffolk and Frances Brandon and his wife.

"Mr. Cromwell sent Liz to Hertfordshire overnight." William Tudor sighed, "It's best not to let Liz hang around in front of her father in the near future, otherwise..."

William Tudor didn't continue, but Princess Mary could fully imagine Miss Elizabeth's end after annoying Henry VIII. After all, she was affected by the quarrel between Henry VIII and Catherine of Aragon, so she was far It was sent far away to the Welsh border, and it took more than half a year of frightening days.

Just after Bishop Gardiner announced in Latin that Henry VIII and Jane Seymour were officially married couples under the witness of God, a loud noise pierced the sky, causing Henry VIII's right hand to exchange rings to tremble slightly. Almost ruined the smoothness of the entire engagement ceremony.

And push the time back to half an hour ago.

Thomas Cromwell, who was in charge of confirming that Anne Boleyn would die on the execution ground, knocked on the door of Anne Boleyn's cell, indicating that she could end her dying prayers.

Anne Boleyn turned a blind eye to the cross and made the sign of the cross, and then asked the maid to put earrings, a pearl necklace, and a brand new hood on her.

"You'd better only wear earrings, because the hood and necklace will be removed before the execution." Thomas Cromwell said casually, but Anne Boleyn didn't take it seriously.

"I'm about to die. Why do you care about this trouble?" Anne Boleyn touched her neck and asked Thomas Cromwell, "Will it hurt?"

"The hired executioner is very professional, and he will strike before you realize it." Thomas Cromwell knew that Anne Boleyn spent half a year's income from an ordinary family to hire a Calais swordsman.

Anne Boleyn breathed a sigh of relief when she got the answer, and joked, "That's really great, because I have a slender neck, so I will die sooner than ordinary people."

After all, Anne Boleyn breathed a sigh of relief, and after paying the guard at the door a £[-] tip, she walked out of the room with her skirt in her hand, and said to Thomas Cromwell, "You will be here soon!" Witness my death, and watch Jane Seymour don the cursed crown."

"I will go down in history as King Henry's most hated woman, and the first decapitated queen in the history of England."

"As for you, you were just unknown people before I was alive. After my death, you are just a speck of dust in history."
