The Rise of the European Emperor

Chapter 701 Wife Killing Evidence

After roaring for a while, Henry VII asked with a gloomy face:

"Is everything you say true?"

Weber looked scared, but he still raised his chest and said:

"See you in the middle of the night!"

Henry VII nodded and commanded gloomily:

"Okay, you go down first. Richard, don't go back tonight..."

Richard Bolton's face stiffened, but he nodded helplessly. He knew what Henry VII meant, because he was afraid that he would tip off Margaret. However, Richard Bolben was a diehard loyalist of Henry VII, and his loyalty to Henry VII surpassed his feelings for Margaret.

In fact, Princess Margaret never looked down on Richard Pohl. After all, Margaret was a princess from the York Dynasty, and Richard Pohl was just a entourage of Henry VII. A knighthood is just a jazz.

But no matter what, Margaret is also a mother of five, and she is a mother of five children... Even if she has no feelings, but she gave birth to five children for him at the other party, he really couldn't bear it. However, the order of Henry VII can not be called, he is also a diehard loyalist of Henry VII. So, Richard Pohl finally sighed and went to the room that Henry VII arranged for him to rest.

After Richard Bohr left, Henry VII immediately arranged for an elite army to ambush near the east gate. Webb did not provide a hiding place for the ambush, which Marin had deliberately arranged. If Henry VII's army found the small courtyard where the soldiers were ambushed early, the effect would not be as intuitive and violent as letting his men witness the "rebellion" of Margaret's men with their own eyes. If it wasn't exciting enough, Henry VII might not have killed Margaret. It would be difficult to deal with if Margaret was still alive when Marin's army entered London. Therefore, Weber deliberately only said that they would seize the city gate in the middle of the night, but said that he did not know the more specific details. And this is very convincing. After all, knowing everything makes people a little unbelievable.

It was after 11 o'clock in the middle of the night when the back door of Ball's mansion suddenly opened. Two confidants of the Margaret County Lord quietly slipped out of the back door, and shuttled from the alley to the east gate and the west gate...

However, what he didn't know was that his whereabouts had long been monitored by Henry VII's men...

"Hmph, did you make a move?" Henry VII sneered after receiving the news.

Princess Margaret's confidant went out not to inform those people to do something, but to observe the situation. These two did not join the two groups of people who attacked the city gate, but would hide in the dark and observe the results. If they captured the city gate, they would naturally rely on their familiarity with the city's topography.

Quickly rush back to the mansion and notify the Princess Margaret. Conversely, if it fails, the Princess Margaret should also be notified to make plans early.

If the person in charge of the Beihai Chamber of Commerce in Ximen knew about it, he would definitely break out in a cold sweat. Because, if people who come to Ximen directly come to the door, they will definitely be implicated to death...

Fortunately, the two just went to observe the situation near the city gate, rather than directly contacting each other. Otherwise, you will definitely be killed.

After 12 o'clock in the middle of the night, about a hundred strong men with swords and shields came out one after another from an inconspicuous small courtyard near the east gate of London City. Before entering the East Street, the leading man came out, looked left and right for a while, and after finding that there was no problem, he took his subordinates to the street.

After approaching the east gate within 100 meters, the leader shouted "GO", and then more than 100 people rushed to the gate hole of the east gate...

But at this moment, thousands of soldiers and horses came out one after another from the small alleys on the north and south sides of the east gate. Moreover, they are all regular troops wearing armor... You must know that there are only two or three thousand regular troops in the entire city of London at this time, and thousands of regular troops are dispatched, so I really look down on them...

The person who took the lead suddenly burst into cold sweat - Nima, what's going on? How could there be thousands of regular soldiers to surround them?

But at this time they had no way out, so they had no choice but to continue rushing towards the gate of the city...

It's a pity that their number is too small. In the face of ten times the enemy, even if they fight it out, they are useless...

The group of people recruited by the Lord Margaret are all outlaws in England. Personal martial arts may be good, one-on-one may be able to defeat a regular army soldier. However, team battles were never something they were good at.

If they were rushed into the city gate hole by sneak attack, the hundreds of British troops on duty in the city gate hole would probably fail. After all, they had the upper hand, and the defenders were defenseless.

However, in the face of thousands of regular soldiers wearing armor, these people are also very helpless...

To put it bluntly, they have no armor on their bodies, only a wooden shield and a one-handed knife. If the wooden shields were put aside and the one-handed knives were shortened, then they would be like a group of young and bewildered boys. At most, it is just a group of red stick thugs in Young and Dangerous. It's amazing, it's more than one hundred Chen Haonan.

However, what stood in front of them at the moment were thousands of regular soldiers in armor, and many of them were palace guards with high martial arts skills... With such a gap in strength, this group of young and dangerous boys was quickly wiped out...

At the same time, the person sent by the Lord Margaret to observe the situation was also quietly arrested by the English royal spy who followed him.

But fortunately, the attendant sent to Ximen seemed to have a strong temperament. After being surrounded, he drew his sword and resisted desperately, and was finally killed on the spot. At the same time, with his death, the secret of Xichengmen was preserved.

Moreover, the fighting caused by this arrest happened in the vicinity of the small courtyard rented by the people of the Beihai Chamber of Commerce. Well, the people in the yard wouldn't dare to go out without having to make excuses from the Beihai Chamber of Commerce. Obviously, going out at this time is equivalent to courting death...

After tidying up the more than 100 young men who had attacked the east gate, the army quickly surrounded Richard Pohl's residence. Soon, the unwilling Princess Margaret was taken out and escorted to the palace...

Princess Margaret was full of resentment and unwillingness at this time. She never expected that, seeing that her brother was about to take London, her subordinates actually missed, and she was captured... It was really unfortunate...

When seeing Henry VII, Princess Margaret was still full of indignation.

Henry VII roared at the Lord Margaret with a face full of anger:

"Why am I sorry for you? I didn't kill you, I made you a countess, and I found a good husband for you. Why do you have to toss? Isn't it bad to live honestly? Do you have to rebel?"

Princess Margaret knew that she was finished, and responded not to be outdone:

"I rebelled? Is it you who rebelled? You killed the king with the support of a group of chaotic ministers and thieves. You are just a tyrant. What qualifications do you have to be a king? You must know that His Majesty Henry IV has long deprived you of it. You have no right to be a king with this line of succession!"

"Bastard, I obeyed the destiny and became the Lord of England!" Henry VII said angrily.

"What you call 'following the destiny' means killing the monarch and becoming independent, right? Tyrant!" The Princess Margaret counterattacked without showing weakness.

"I'm not a kingslayer, Richard III is a kingslayer. I avenged His Majesty Edward V and killed Richard III, the real kingslayer!" Henry VII defended.

"Where's the evidence? You don't even have any evidence, so you're too embarrassed to say that Richard III murdered the king? It's been twenty years, and you don't have any evidence. How can you prove your statement? So, you are the real kingslayer, a robber. , a tyrant, a despicable and shameless villain!"

These words just hit Henry VII's sore foot - he really can't produce any valid evidence to prove that Richard III killed the king. So, in a rage, he called Richard Pohl directly:

"Richard, handle it yourself. Don't worry, her title of Earl of Salisbury will be passed on to your eldest son Henry!" Henry VII said gloomily.

Richard Bohr's son is called Henry Bohr, and even his name is the same as his master's. It can be seen that Richard Bohr is really a good loyal dog.

After struggling in his heart for a while, Richard Bohr said to Henry VII:

"Your Majesty, please give this minister a glass of poisoned wine... Also, please don't say that Margaret was killed in a rebellion, that it was an accidental death..." After speaking, he knelt in front of Henry VII...

Henry VII thought about it, and decided to give his confidants a face:

"Okay, I will announce to the public that Margaret died of a sudden illness..."

Soon, Henry VII's men brought poisoned wine. Richard Bohr handed the wine glass to Margaret with a bitter face and said:

"Drink, so you can at least keep a whole body..."

In order to show his loyalty to Henry VII, he was also considered "wife-killing proof 'Tao'"...
