As Princess Elizabeth disembarked with red and swollen eyes, accompanied by several maids and guards, Princess Mary officially entered the warship.

The warship started sailing and gradually left Edward's sight until there was no trace of it.

The cold wind blows away the long hair at the back of Edward's head. The long taupe hair looks very elegant, adding a touch of chic.

"Let's go! Elizabeth, it's time for us to go back!" Edward sighed as he squinted his eyes slightly as he watched the departing ship under the sunlight.

"En!" Elizabeth softly agreed, but her slender jade neck didn't move at all, her eyes were fixed on the river rippled by the wind, obsessed.

Seeing this, Edward didn't urge her to go back, it's not bad to stay here for a while.

If Princess Mary's mother died of melancholy after divorce, then Princess Elizabeth's mother was beheaded by Henry VIII and died miserably.

Since childhood, Princess Elizabeth and Princess Mary have loved each other and depended on each other for life. It can be said that in Princess Elizabeth's mind, Princess Mary is equivalent to the role of mother.

So farewell, I don't know when and what month we will meet again.

Elizabeth, who is wearing a white dress today, has not undergone much modification, only lace has been added to the skirt, and the whole person presents a kind of elegance and holiness, which is in line with her title of virgin queen in the future.

Standing there shriveled like this, Edward felt a little uncomfortable, so he simply found a topic to enliven the atmosphere.

"You have this day too, Elizabeth!" Edward said with emotion as he stared at the river surface under the sun, reflecting light from time to time, irritating his eyes.

"Yes! I also have this day!" Princess Elizabeth also murmured, and then she realized that her calm face was cloudy and rainy. She turned her head and said excitedly, "I won't get married!"

Seeing the huge contrast, Edward himself was shocked, speechless for a while.

"Elizabeth, every woman must marry, even if you are a princess!" Looking at the excited Her Royal Highness, Edward's expression became a little unsteady, looking into Princess Elizabeth's dark blue eyes, he said word by word.

"Unless you want to be a nun!" Edward smiled exaggeratedly.

"I won't let the nuns go!" Thinking of the nuns chanting and singing in the monastery all day long, Elizabeth's scalp went numb.

"I won't marry either!" Elizabeth continued without hesitation, looking at her younger brother who had become the king.

"You are already eighteen years old. There is no princess who won't get married. You will be a laughing stock!" Edward felt a little headache about this, but he didn't give up. He still tried to persuade her, with a hint of pleading on his face.

Elizabeth was unmoved by this, and looked at Edward with stubborn eyes, and said decisively: "Stop talking, I won't get married anyway!"

Hearing this sentence, Edward felt his head hurt even more. He did not marry Princess Elizabeth to change history, but for her sake. After more than ten years of getting along, an iron rod has been ground into dozens of needles. Not to mention siblings who are related by blood.

Elizabeth was so determined that she even looked into Edward's eyes, telling him exactly how stubborn and confrontational she was.

"Okay! It's up to you!" Edward retreated helplessly and waved his hands, "In a few years, you will tell me that you want to get married!"

Elizabeth watched her young brother make concessions, and then her eyes gradually softened, and her tone became friendly.

"Don't worry about that, your sister has her own decision!"

After finishing speaking, he showed a smile without showing his teeth, and turned around and walked away generously.

Seeing this, Edward could only shrug his shoulders, glanced at the sky where the dark clouds were gradually rising, and sighed.

"It depends on God's will!"

Edward understood that Elizabeth saw her mother beheaded when she was a child, and she was too scared. Now she still resists getting married, and the burden is heavy!

Afterwards, Edward followed, his handsome face was modest and polite, and the surrounding nobles finally saw His Majesty's face like this. The low-ranking nobles who didn't see each other several times a year faced such a gentle and humble His Majesty the King, and they had a much better impression of His Majesty the King.

Taking time out to meet several prestigious nobles, Edward got into the carriage under the escort of the guards.

The nobles couldn't help but feel regretful about this. It was rare to see His Majesty the king for such a short time.

Soon after returning to the palace, Edward and Elizabeth separated and went about their own business.

The next day, August 11th, 1549, the weather in London was cloudy, the air quality was not bad, with a slight cool breeze, and the temperature was around 20 degrees, which was a pleasant weather.

So, early in the morning, Elizabeth took the Queen Mother Mary and little Lolita to ride horses at a horse farm outside London, leaving Edward alone, who called him a king!

Jack got up from the room early in the morning, put on the guard's clothes, tidied up his appearance, and walked out of the room confidently after feeling quite satisfied.

At this time, other people in the room also got up one after another, combing their clothes on their own.

"Jack, why did you wake up so early today!" A sleepy-eyed guard in shorts asked with doubts in his eyes.

"Your Majesty the King summoned me today, can you not come earlier?" Jack said coquettishly with a proud face.

"Tsk tsk! Jack, you'll be prosperous in the future!" Another guard sighed enviously.

"Just don't forget us!" one of the remaining guards added before Jack left.

In this regard, Jack just smiled, and he didn't make a big deal. He knew that whether he can develop today depends on luck.

But the roommates who have lived together for two years will naturally not forget them if they have benefits.

After being adopted by the king, he came to the palace to become a bodyguard. This was an honorable and respectable job. The monthly salary was as much as two pounds, which allowed him to save a lot of money without worrying about board and lodging.

It’s ok, he’s not satisfied yet, he wants to stand out, climb to a higher position, never go hungry again, he’s had enough of these miserable days.

And if you want to realize this wish, you have to climb up and become a master.

For him, the only way out at present is to be favored by the king, so as to seize the opportunity.

Since yesterday, when Emma, ​​who was born as an orphan, sent someone to inform the king that he wanted to see him, he knew that the waiting opportunity was in front of him, and he must work hard to get it, no matter how high the price was.

Silently making up his mind in his heart, Jack had a faint smile on his face, and when he met the acquainted guards on the road, he nodded slightly in response.
