[Henry VIII] Tudor Crown

Chapter 8 Confrontation

This year's Christmas has been very weird.

Queen Catherine, who got started, sat sickly beside King Heng VIII, as if she would be suffocated by the crown on her head in the next second, but the aura emanating from her body made people dare not underestimate it, and even usually The Duke of Norfolk, who was dissatisfied with the queen, kept a low profile today. Anne Boleyn stood proudly behind her father, using a purple dress to demonstrate to Queen Catherine. At the same time, Thomas Boleyn in front of her felt Very embarrassing.

"Look at her, she still thinks she is the queen!" The Duchess of Suffolk was very dissatisfied with Henry VIII's decision to separate the queen and her child, but under her husband's persuasion, she gradually accepted this arrangement .

Not to mention that Queen Catherine's body does not allow her to raise two children, just the people with ulterior motives in the court, as well as the minions of the Duke of Norfolk who hide in the dark, are enough to make the Duke of Suffolk The lady preferred to keep William Tudor tightly guarded in her base camp.

Anyway, in terms of child support, Henry VIII would not be too stingy for the sake of the king's face.

Just like he did with Princess Mary, and Henry Fitzroy.

"Everyone, at this joyful moment, let us raise our glasses to celebrate the great achievements of England this year and the birth of William Tudor." Henry VIII pretended not to see the confrontation between Queen Catherine and Anne Boleyn, After standing up and announcing the start of the celebration, he stretched out his hand to Queen Catherine and said, "Here, I would like to thank my queen, my beloved wife, for giving me an incomparably precious gift in the past year, that is England s future."

Anne Boleyn below turned pale because of Henry VIII's actions, but Queen Catherine's face did not show a single bit of joy because of Henry VIII's actions.

Because she naturally thought of the warning words Henry VIII gave her when he took her son away.

But to Queen Catherine's comfort, the first gift Henry VIII received this year was a gold cup from her, and the second gift was a Bible she gave instead of William Tudor, so in the eyes of everyone, Queen Catherine's position is fairly stable, not to mention that William Tudor is almost eight months old, so Henry VIII is gradually getting close to this son.

It's just that for Anne Boleyn, this is no less than a bolt from the blue.

"What do you care about with that Spanish woman? She will be sent to Richmond Palace by His Majesty tomorrow, and the court doctor also said that she will not live for a few years, so there is nothing to be afraid of." After the ball began, the Duke of Norfolk will be dressed in purple. Anne Boleyn in the skirt pulled aside and asked her to change a dress: "The ambassadors of various countries are going to meet with you soon, don't let them see you like this."

"Let me go." Anne Boleyn twisted away the arm of the Duke of Norfolk, and said extremely proudly: "That's just for the Spanish ambassador to take a good look at Catherine's ugly face."

After all, Anne Boleyn said confidently: "Henry has not forgotten the humiliation Spain gave him in the Battle of Pavia, and he will not mind if I humiliate the Spaniards."

"Yes, he really doesn't mind if you humiliate the Spaniards, but he will mind if you humiliate his queen." The Duke of Norfolk wanted to pry open his niece's brain to see what was inside: "We still need Spain is going to deal with the mighty Ottoman Empire, and His Majesty the King is considering getting Princess Mary to be engaged to François' son, so the French ambassador does not want to see the mother of their crown princess being humiliated by you in public."

"What?" Anne Boleyn asked in astonishment, "Didn't Your Majesty cancel Mary's engagement to the Duke of Orleans?"

When Princess Mary was six years old, Henry VIII decided to marry Princess Mary and Francois' second son, the Duke of Orleans, in order to form an alliance with France. Unfortunately, after Wolsey stabilized the alliance between Britain and France in other ways, Princess Mary's marriage contract is useless, and now...

"Francois has not forgotten the shame given to him by the Roman Emperor, and of course, neither has Your Majesty." The Duke of Norfolk noticed that Henry VIII was looking for Anne Boleyn, so he pulled his niece into the dark , warned: "Your Majesty is looking for you, hurry up and change your clothes and go there. Also, be polite to the queen, you don't have to argue with a man who is destined to die, and we also need Prince William to make trouble with Henry Fitzroy Both lose."

After hearing what the Duke of Norfolk said, Anne Boleyn changed into a yellow dress with great reluctance, and then, in the expectation of Henry VIII, flirted with the king very inappropriately, which made the Spanish ambassador very dissatisfied: " I thought that the ladies of England were as pious and dignified as Lady Margaret Beaufort, and that the courts of English kings should not be turned into brothels and coaches like the courts of France."

"Ms. Anne's father was a British diplomat in France, and she herself was Queen Claude's maid." Queen Catherine whispered in the ear of the Spanish ambassador: "You also know that King Francois taught Give my husband some bad habits, and after William was born, she couldn't wait to demonstrate to me."

"Demonstration?"

"Before you came, she wore purple clothes representing royal power, and after His Majesty began to receive foreign ambassadors, she changed into yellow clothes." Queen Catherine explained: "In Spain, yellow represents sadness, and she obviously pointed at me. , for Spain."

"Then you just let her tarnish your honor like this?" The Spanish ambassador never thought that their princess, Queen Catherine, the daughter of the twin kings, was a swallow.

"She is not the first person to protest against me, and she will not be the last." Queen Catherine, who has given up on Henry VIII, said coldly: "Your Majesty will use jewelry to coax her at most, and when the novelty wears off, he will My eyes will turn to the younger and more beautiful maid. Compared to Ms. Anne, I care more about His Majesty's attitude towards Mary and William."

"You mean..."

"Your Majesty's grandmother, most of Margaret Beaufort's territory was inherited by Henry Fitzroy, which is extremely unreasonable and illegal." Queen Catherine said step by step: "William has not been named The Prince of Wales, and he is seven years younger than Henry Fitzroy, it is very likely that he will not be able to catch up with the latter's influence, so we must let Mary grow up as soon as possible, at least before I die, she must have the ability to be with Henry Fitzroy Tsroy, and the vipers headed by the Duke of Norfolk."

"It's a pity that there is no suitable prince in Spain to marry Princess Mary." The Spanish ambassador thought with some regret.

In this regard, Queen Catherine privately disagreed with the words of the Spanish ambassador.

Because her original intention is to empower children to hold on to what belongs to them, instead of becoming a puppet controlled by the Roman emperor.
