Chapter 1819 Slandering Queen Anna
What opportunity was Marin talking about? It was an opportunity to slander Queen Anna! In the future, Edward will definitely "receive a lunch box", otherwise how would he control England?
However, the existence of Queen Anna became an obstacle. If this woman was strong enough, she might be Cixi and Empress Lu. At that time, if he wanted to control England, he would encounter huge obstacles. Even if she did not have Cixi and Empress Lu's ability, her identity as Margaret's mother would be used, which would be enough for Marin to have a drink.
But fortunately, because Anna is the daughter of Count Dult in France and is the daughter of a nobleman in the enemy country, this gives Marin a room for operation.
Marin didn't have to think about killing Queen Anna, because this woman was honest and honest. However, no matter how much she was, her identity was there. Once Edward passed away, Queen Anna had the right to be regent before Margaret became an adult. This is common in the East and the West. Even if Queen Anna did not have the ability to regent, if several great nobles supported him and treated her as a puppet, she would have the ability to compete with Marin, an outsider.
Therefore, if Marin wants to regent in England, he must move away as a "stumbling block" of Queen Anna...
Originally, Marin wanted her and Edward to "get a box lunch" together. However, if both Edward and his wife were killed, they would easily be suspected according to the principle of "whoever benefits will be the greatest suspicion".
Therefore, Marin did not dare to let Queen Anna get a lunch box easily, so she could only find other ways to deal with it. The simplest way to team uniforms was to ruin Queen Anna's reputation and make her lose the trust of the English...
For example, arguments such as "Queen Anna is a French spy" can easily make Queen Anna lose the trust of the English and make the English full of doubts about her.
As long as this is done, no one will support Queen Anna's regent in the future. At that time, the English will stand on Marin's side. After all, the English are enemies of France, but they do not have them with the North Sea.
In this way, Marin can achieve his goal - without killing Queen Anna, she cannot compete with herself for the regent in England.
...
Originally, Marin was still thinking of a way to pour dirty water on Anna. But she couldn't find any opportunity. After all, pouring dirty water on someone requires some circumstance evidence to achieve a "real" effect.
It happened that this assassination happened. Marin Minrui felt that the opportunity to pour dirty water was coming!
Although Little Marceau was the maid chosen by Edward himself, not Queen Anna brought it from the beginning. However, she also followed Queen Anna for several years. In a few years, it was enough to develop a person she didn't know into her own confidant. After all, the maid was following Queen Anna all day long.
Therefore, as long as Marin grasps this, he lets spread rumors in London that Queen Anna participated in the assassination. Even if she could not find evidence in the end, it would be enough for Queen Anna to drink a pot. Not to mention that she was deposed as the queen and would no longer be trusted in the future, it would be undoubtedly true. When the seeds of doubt are planted, trust will begin to collapse...
Once you are suspected of being a French spy, even if Queen Anna wants to stand up and regent, others will not agree - you, a French spy, want to regent? Wouldn't you sell England to France?
In this way, Marin's goal has been achieved...
...
Do it as soon as possible, Marin quickly arranged for Kohler to send Morse code instructions to the North Sea spies in London in the form of a flying pigeon, ordering them to secretly spread rumors and link the assassination with Queen Anna...
After receiving the order, the North Sea spies in London immediately executed Marlin's order and began to say that the dead little girl Marceau helped Weisman gain a foothold in London on various occasions was because they were instructed by Queen Anna. Anyway, everyone was dead and there was no evidence of death, so it was difficult to investigate. Then, these spies also spread rumors that it was Queen Anna's father, Earl Dult, who was preparing to attack His Majesty Edward, so that France could seize the Calais Fortress and further annex England...
After hearing such rumors, the people of England really felt disgusted with Queen Anna, and many people believed that Queen Anna was a spy sent by France. After all, Queen Anna's father was the first dog-legged son of King Louis XII of France.
For a time, even the people's calls for "destroying the queen" appeared...
But Edward was indifferent to this because, as a pillow man who had been by his side for more than ten years, Edward knew his wife's character very well - he was a very simple woman. To put it bluntly, simplicity means having no brains. If Queen Anna really had any small moves, with Edward's control over the London Palace, it would be impossible for him to be unaware of it.
As for the incident where Marceau helped Weissman gain a foothold in London, Edward did know something. At the beginning, Edward sent someone to investigate the matter secretly, but found nothing wrong. Moreover, Weissman was indeed Marceau's distant cousin.
This time, Edward was actually angry that he had nowhere to be angry, so he had to vent his anger with this little maid. Anyway, this was just a maid from a foreign country.
But Edward did not expect that his willful act of venting his anger was used by Marin's spies and poured dirty water on Queen Anna's head.
...
However, Edward was not a person who could easily believe others. This assassination made him believe in Queen Anna, but he also had a little doubt. Therefore, this time he did not clarify the facts to the outside world and announced that he believed in Queen Anna. However, he did not ask Queen Anna for trouble, but instead dealt with it coldly. Of course, in private, Edward still comforted Queen Anna.
The spy from the North Sea Kingdom who lurked in the Tower of London passed on the news that Edward continued to trust Queen Anna back to the North Sea Kingdom.
Marin was not disappointed with this result, because his greatest purpose was not to make Edward doubt Queen Anna, but to make English subjects doubt Queen Anna.
Because Edward must have a lunch box. When he dies, it doesn't matter whether he trusts Queen Anna or not. At that time, whether the English subjects trust Queen Anna is the most important thing. Because dead people cannot affect the situation.
So, Marin didn't care much about Edward's attitude. Of course, it would be best if Edward began to doubt Queen Anna.
Judging from the current situation, although Edward trusts Queen Anna, he did not publicly defend her, proving that he still had a little doubt in his psychology. And he did not publicly defend Queen Anna, which gave Marin the opportunity to continue to pour dirty water on Queen Anna...
"Have you heard it? His Majesty Edward did not publicly deny the view that "Queen Anna is a French spy" and prove that this matter is not a random fabrication. As for His Majesty's failure to publicly refute it, it is probably because Queen Anna is Princess Margaret's mother after all, right?" Under the intentional guidance of the spy in the North Sea Kingdom, such remarks were circulated in taverns across England.
