In 1420, King Henry V of England signed the Treaty of Telva with King Charles VI of France, promising to pass on the throne to the then King of England after his death, denying the succession of Prince Charles. King Henry V of England became Regent of France. Right to succeed to the French throne after the death of Charles VI.

At this point, France has become part of the Anglo-French United Kingdom.

In 1422, Henry V and Charles VI died one after another. Henry V's one-year-old son became King Henry VI, regent by his uncle, the Duke of Bedford, and a coronation ceremony was held in the Saint-Denis Church in Paris.

At the same time, the French royal family suddenly repented. Immediately after Henry VI succeeded to the throne, they took out another will left by the mad king Charles VI before his death—amending the edict that daughters had no inheritance rights in the Salic Code, ordering his Female Sandra inherits her throne.

It is said that when Charles VI wrote this will before his death, he yelled "This is an oracle!" to the ministers who disagreed with him, but no one knows the truth, and no one knows that the mad king really saw the god The brilliance of the queen is still a lie deliberately made up by the ministers who were dissatisfied with the crown prince at the time and chose to support the queen, or the admirers of later generations; but the queen's ruling is indeed an indisputable fact.

The golden rose of France.

Queen of Glory.

This is how later generations describe her.

"Queen of Glory" Sandra I - rumored to be the most beautiful woman in French history, the daughter of Charles VI. During her reign, she controlled the government with iron and blood, and regained all the taken away France at a very fast speed Territory, ending the Hundred Years' War between Britain and France, successfully achieved the final victory.

but--

"...the time given to her is too short."

Jacques Cole, the queen's best friend and then treasurer, wrote in his memoirs.

Not long after the war ended, some people couldn't wait to attack the Queen——

Those who supported the prince secretly poisoned the cup that Joan of Arc brought to Her Majesty the Queen.

…In fact, the amount of poison poured into the cup was not enough to kill an adult, but the Queen, who had been worn down by factional disputes and subsequent wars, could no longer bear even a little damage.

The Holy Maiden of Salvation was sent to death row for poisoning the queen.

Marshal Gilles de Rais ran around to rescue her from prison, but the saint refused the help of her comrades without hesitation.

"I killed the king, Jill."

Joan of Arc in prison uniform looked sad and desperate.

"That's not your fault!" Jill urged anxiously.

"not me."

She showed a painful expression, and tightly clutched the cross on her chest with both hands: "It was I who failed the king's trust. I delivered the deadly poison with my own hands. It was I who persuaded her to drink those things with a smile on my face."

—I killed the king.

This has become a desperate nightmare that the girl crowned as a saint can never escape from.

A few days later, it was the new king, Charles VII himself, who appeared in front of Joan of Arc.

The new king did not follow his confidant, and appeared alone at the door of the cell.

Some things don't need much explanation, like the Queen's cause of death.

"Would you believe I didn't really want to kill her?"

Charles VII looked extremely cramped, his eyes flickered and he looked flustered, he was obviously the king of a country, but he didn't want to look directly at the clear and beautiful blue eyes of the saint in front of him.

"...I only have one question, please answer me." Jeanne looked at the man in front of her, but she couldn't bring herself to call out that name no matter what.

"why?"

Why do you want to do this?

Charles VII murmured his lips, but still gritted his teeth and said what was in his heart: "She shouldn't be better than everyone, and she shouldn't be a woman."

... just for this reason?

For such a boring reason! ?

Jeanne found it incredible and couldn't believe it.

"Listen! I didn't intend to kill her! The amount of poison in the cup is definitely not enough to kill her, it will only make her too weak to continue to govern! I never thought of asking her to die!!!" Charles VII suddenly grabbed The iron railings of the cage were closed, and the frantic and desperate eyes looked like a death row prisoner struggling to die.

"Anyway, those are my last relatives! But I can't help it! I can't help you understand!?"

"You can choose not to do it." Jeanne's voice trembled, "Why did you poison her?" Why did you kill her?

"I didn't do it, I didn't do anything!"

Charles VII suddenly raised his voice.

"She doesn't trust me, she doesn't trust anyone! She will check everything, except you, she only trusts you..." The man gritted his teeth as if grabbing a life-saving straw: "So I don't do anything, Can't do anything, it's you! It's you who gave her the poison to kill her!"

"—I have no objection to your words."

Joan clasped her hands on her chest, showing a sad smile.

...I killed my king.

I have completed the task that the Lord has entrusted to me, I have nothing to be attached to, and I have no need to worry.

So now I can finally atone for my sin with death, and then go to accompany my king.

But even so... even now, hearing the sentence that you only trust me, you will still feel extremely happy.

In July 1439, the Holy Maiden of Salvation was tied to the stake for poisoning the Queen at the age of 27.

——In the burning flames, the saint whose heart had died heard a voice.

the voice of the world.

"I can let your king have a truly glorious future, but the price is that you need to pay me a small thing."

...Ahhh, if there really is a god, surely they will definitely punish me for being like this.

——But you will never regret it.

This is not a decision made by the will of the gods, but a choice made in the heart of Joan, the country girl and the trusted subject of the king.

So, make a pact.

Take what you want and give me back my king.
