Chapter 1818: Opportunity comes

"What? Edward was assassinated?" Marin stood up in surprise, with a complex expression on his face.

In this expression, of course, shock is the main thing. However, there is some joy?

Marin asked after a moment of surprise:

"Is the information reliable? How is His Majesty Edward?" Marin's subtext is-is Edward dead?

As a confidant of Marin, Kohler could not know what his master meant. So he shook his head and said:

"It's just that his arm was cut and he needs to rest for a few months, there is no fatal injury ..."

"This ..." Marin was disappointed in his heart, thinking that his son could enter England early. As a result, Kong Huan rejoices.

At this moment, Kohler suddenly said:

"However, we found that the assassination of His Majesty Edward this time seems to be related to the French ..."

"What's going on?" Marin asked with interest.

"This is the case. Recently, the relationship between France and the United Kingdom was extremely bad because of the belonging of the Calais fortress. The French even really thought of taking Calais by throwing the clothing of the dead of the smallpox patient, but later because of your majesty The cowpox law, the British first planted cowpox to the people of the Calais Fort, making the French plan to bankrupt. "

"So, the following time, France and Britain were engaged in military confrontation while negotiating. But the relationship between the two reached a freezing point, and they both wished each other to die. And this time the assassin who assassinated Edward passed the spy of our North Sea country spy in London. Cooperating with the investigation, it was discovered that the assassins were bought by the French and ambushed His Majesty Edward outside the Westminster Abbey Cathedral. "

"However, His Majesty Edward was lucky that the knife that stabbed him in the heart was blocked by the chest plate armor hidden in his clothes. The assassin couldn't hit him and could only cut the left arm of His Majesty Edward ..."

...

Marin shook his head:

"Why would he wear breastplate armor in his clothes? So shady?"

Kohler looked at Marin silently and said:

"Did you forget? When helping Edward attack Henry VII, His Majesty Edward was with us every day. When entering the city of London, did you demonstrate to him wearing a breastplate in a silk robe?"

Malin suddenly realized-Nima, saying that others are yin, this does not curse himself? Over the years, Marin has forgotten himself.

I am a person who is afraid of death. Every time I go out to hold a ceremony, a silk chest armor is worn in the silk robe to protect the vital point from being assassinated. Unexpectedly, he was accidentally learnt by Edward.

In fact, he did n’t deliberately teach Edward, but when he led the army into the city of London, he saw Edward ’s shiny chest plate armor in silk robes. Edward just asked casually, and Marin also answered casually. As a result, Edward remembered this method ...

Nor can it be blamed that Edward has to learn this method, because when he first entered London to overthrow the reign of Henry VII, under Marlin's confusion, Edward opened a killing ring and slaughtered too many Henry VII's big nobles and settled. Too much blood feud. It can be said that in England, there are not tens of thousands of thousands who want to kill Edward.

But as a monarch, he always goes to public places such as squares and Westminster Abbey. At this time, including the way back and forth to the church, they were easily assassinated.

Therefore, Edward also studied Marin, wearing a three-quarter chest plate armor in a gorgeous silk robe, protecting the heart and other important parts.

This time he participated in an important religious event at the Westminster Abbey, and he was caught by the assassin. Taking advantage of the confusion of the crowd, he stabbed when he came up.

But the assassin did not expect that Edward's gorgeous robe was actually wearing a chest plate armor, and then he missed ...

Before being hacked to death by Edward's guards, he struggled to wield a knife and wanted to take Edward's throat straight. Then, Edward's left arm was blocked, and he became injured in the left arm. Then, the assassin was chopped into eight pieces by Edward's guards ...

...

Originally, because the assassin was killed on the spot, the clue was broken. But it happened that the North Sea spy in London saw the assassin in contact with a businessman in a tavern the day before the assassination. And that businessman is a French businessman.

This is not the point, the point is-this French businessman, who took the road of the French maid beside Queen Anna, took root in London ...

The problem is now big. Queen Anna's maid is related to the assassination? Not really!

Queen Anna ’s maid, Marceau, was Edward ’s dismissal of all the maids that Durte had arranged for Anna to be an attendant. He personally sent people to France to select the “innocent” Frenchmen in order to ease the queen ’s homesick situation. After all, a group of maids from their hometowns accompanied them, speaking their hometown languages, and were not lonely.

But it happened here that the French businessman named Weissmann and the French spy happened to be distant relatives to the maid of Queen Marceau. In order to facilitate entry into London, Weissman took Marceau's way into London ...

The queen's maid is still a bit face-saving. Westman soon took root in London, specializing in the introduction of French wine (England imports a lot of wine every year), and the export of English woolen wool.

This time he took the opportunity to arrange for the assassination of Edward, which was actually the order of Westman's boss. From the French's point of view, Edward's seizure of the Calais fortress is indeed very "rebellious." Therefore, the French were also anxious that Edward died early.

Once Edward dies, England will definitely be in chaos. Taking advantage of this opportunity, the French have a chance to retake the Calais fortress. And because Edward has no children, England may even have civil strife, giving France the opportunity to invade its homeland ...

Therefore, Weissman hired a poor and downgraded former English noble child named Bill to send him to assassinate Edward. The employed former noble child Bill, whose father was a baron during the Henry VII period, although not a high-weight, but the family is rich.

But in the battle against the Marin army hired by Edward to enter London, Bill's father Baron Gates died as a middle-level officer outside the city of London.

Because he was not a high-ranking nobleman, he was not particularly targeted when Edward later cleaned. Bill escaped disguised as a smart man, and was not liquidated.

However, this time, Bill seemed to be infected with pneumonia, and his life was about to die (then pneumonia in Europe was basically waiting to die, and there was no medicine). Weissman also took this point seriously, bewitching him and saying-anyway, you are about to die, it is better to do a feat before dying and kill Edward who killed your family ...

Then ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ Bills of the Gates family, with hatred full of hatred, learned a bit of martial arts from the noble family, ready to assassinate Edward. Moreover, it really gave him a chance.

At that time, many people were praying. Bill was wearing an ordinary monk's uniform and his head was lowered without notice. After all, the monks are the most common in Westminster Abbey.

But when he assassinated Edward in the end, he didn't expect Edward to wear chest plate armor in his robe, and then he had to drink hate ...

...

Afterwards, the British officials did not catch Wesman because he hurried out of town early in the morning. In the end, Edward's men only caught a few unlucky eggs of Wesman and the unlucky Maso maid.

This innocent little French girl named Marceau took on most of Edward's anger and was killed alive ...

...

Hearing this, Marin laughed happily when he changed the depressed mood of "Edward was not dead" before.

"I'm worried that there is no chance. I didn't expect that the opportunity would come so soon ..."
