Chapter 387
After being silent for a while, Zhu Jinsong suddenly sighed inexplicably: "Go and look through the files between France and England, and bring the files of Louis VII and Queen Eleanor of Louis VII, Henry II of England and .”

The atmosphere in the hall fell into silence again.

It was not until a while later that Zeng Cheng tentatively asked, "Your Majesty, Louis VII and his wife, and Louis XVI...?"

Zhu Jinsong rubbed his forehead, sighed and said, "Louis VII can be regarded as the ancestor of Louis XVI. This buddy married the eldest daughter of Guillaume X, Duke of Aquitaine of the Duchy of Astan."

"Of course, that's not the point of the question."

"The crux of the problem is that Aigre, the son of Guillaume X, Duke of Aquitaine, died of illness, leaving only Eleanor, the eldest daughter."

"In other words, Eleanor has become the legal heir of the Duke of Aquitaine—if Guillaume X thinks that finding other male heirs will harm the interests of the family and the blood is not pure, so he can only let Ellie promise to inherit the title."

"Eleanor was also raised as an heir because of this, and devoted all of Guillaume X's efforts."

"It's a pity that Guillaume X couldn't hold on before Eleanor grew up."

"Because he was worried about letting Eleanor face the struggles between the various countries in France alone, Guillaume X entrusted Eleanor and the country to Louis VI, the then King of France, who was the father of Louis VII. "

"Guillaume X hopes that Louis VI can raise Eleanor and find a qualified husband for Eleanor to share and manage the Principality of Aquitaine."

"This great trust is not to let Henry VI do nothing—Guillaume XVI promised that Louis VI can enjoy control of the Kingdom of Aquitaine before Eleanor gets married."

"In order to obtain the kingdom of Aquitaine forever, Louis VI simply let his son, Prince Louis, who later became Louis VII, marry Eleanor."

Speaking of this, Zhu Jinsong's face couldn't help becoming weird.

This buddy Louis VII is a very devout believer.

In other words, this buddy Louis VII has always believed that the messy things between men and women are dirty and sinful. In addition, the relationship between him and his wife Eleanor is of the nature of a political marriage, so This buddy Louis VII is more or less a bit of a businessman.

Of course, for a French king, no matter what his buddy Louis VII thinks, no matter how he handles official affairs, as long as his wife Eleanor can give birth to a son to inherit France and the Principality of Aquitaine, then Louis VII He is a qualified king of France.

Unfortunately, I don't know whether it's the wrong posture of the buddy Louis VII, or the bad luck of the Grand Duchess Eleanor. In short, in the 16 years of marriage, the Grand Duchess Eleanor only gave birth to two daughters But failed to give birth to a son.

Then, Louis VII, who already disliked this marriage very much, decided to divorce Eleanor altogether and find another queen who could give birth to a son.

The problem is that according to the agreement between Guillaume X and Louis VI, if Louis VII and Eleanor divorce, they will lose control of the Kingdom of Aquitaine, and the Principality of Aquitaine will be combined with Eleanor's generous dowry. return.

After racking his brains and thinking for a long time, Louis VII suddenly realized that it was no big deal even if he divorced Eleanor.

Because Eleanor can't have a son!

Therefore, even if he and Eleanor divorced, the Principality of Aquitaine would eventually fall into the hands of his and Eleanor's daughter, and there would be ways to get it into his own hands in the future.

Then, Louis VII completely abolished Eleanor's position as queen and divorced her on the grounds that she did not obey women's morals and could not give birth to a son.

Then the question comes:

Eleanor, who was abolished as queen, was not a poor abandoned woman. Not only did she successfully inherit the title of Aquitaine, she also owned a large amount of inheritance left by her father, becoming a rare nobleman who was very rich, powerful and landed Duchess.

Therefore, behind Eleanor, the Grand Duchess of Aquitaine, there are countless takers waiting to take over.

And Eleanor's second husband selected from among the crowd of successors was Henry II, King of England, France's deadly enemy.

Although Eleanor has already divorced once, in the European royal family, marriage and lovers are chaotic, and they don't care about these things at all.

Besides, who can refuse a rich woman who is invincibly rich?
Anyway, Henry II, who was still a puppy at the time, failed to refuse.

Thus, Eleanor married Henry II only six weeks after divorcing Louis VII and became queen consort of England.

The following story will definitely explode on the female channel:
Louis VII soon remarried, this time to Constanza of Castile, the daughter of King Alfonso VII of Castile and Leon—and fathered two more daughters.

On the other hand, Eleanor, who married Henry II, not only lived comfortably and happily after remarriage, but also gave birth to five sons for Henry II. Abandoned Louis VII.

To make matters worse, Margaret, the eldest daughter of Louis VII and Constanza, later married Henry, Duke of Normandy.

Henry, Duke of Normandy was the second son of Eleanor and King Henry II of England.

This made Louis VII unacceptable——

The territory of the Principality of Aquitaine, which was obtained by Louis VI's careful planning, fell into the hands of England as Louis VII divorced Eleanor and Eleanor remarried King Henry II of England;

Louis VII also indirectly proved the fact that he could not give birth to a son. How embarrassing Louis VII was when he satirized Eleanor's inability to give birth to a son.

Louis VII even became the laughing stock among the royal families and nobles in Europe for a time.

Therefore, whether it is for the interests of the country, the dignity of the king, or the face of a man, Louis VII has enough reasons to be angry and furious.

Then again, Louis VII chose to open a film with England.

However, God did not bless Louis VII.

Perhaps it was Louis VII's kidney deficiency that affected France's national fortunes. In short, France was beaten up by England. Not only did it fail to regain the Principality of Aquitaine it had already acquired, it even lost almost one-third of its territory.

Although Louis VII was very angry, it was a fact that he could not give birth to a son, and it was also a fact that France was beaten by England.

Therefore, Louis VII simply buried his head in the sand like an ostrich, and hid in the harem to create people crazily.

In 1160, Louis VII, who had worked hard for many years, saw that Constanza of Castile still failed to give birth to a son, so he simply divorced Constanza and married Adele of Champagne who was already his mistress at the time.

In 1165, after five years of hard work, Louis VII finally had a boy with Adele.

Not long after giving birth to his son, Louis VII, who had worked frantically for more than ten years to create a human being, fell ill.

In 1179, Louis VII passed the throne to his only 14-year-old Philip.

No matter how you look at it, France is going to be on the verge of disaster-here, the king is devastated and cannot be picked, the new king Philip is still a 14-year-old boy, while England's Henry and Eleanor are flourishing , all five of them can top the class.

However, history is so turbulent.

Whether it was the monarchs of France, Britain or other European countries at that time, they all saw Philip who was only 14 years old.

It is true that he is only 14 years old, but his wildness, ideas and spirit are stronger than many 40-year-old men.Under his rule, the country of France began to flourish.

In 1187, Philip was 22 years old, and he was still a very young monarch. The king of England who opposed him was the famous lion king Richard in history-Henry and Eleanor.

The Lion King is touted by the history books of Europa as: one of the most outstanding military commanders of the Middle Ages.

However, for this cheap brother Philip, all the pride of Richard the Lion King was smashed like glass slag-the war between Philip and Richard the Lion lasted for years, and Philip not only lost his father Louis VII I found everything I had, and even got a lot of surplus.

The famous Lion King Richard in England's history collapsed after repeated defeats in battles with France. He simply ran to find trouble with another old enemy, Limo, but was killed by an arrow in the battle.

Therefore, Fei Shi succeeded in tossing the Lion King to death.

Then, he started to toss about another cheap brother-John who succeeded Richard to the throne.

Unlike his elder brother who was good at fighting, John was very bad at fighting. He was one of the least despised kings in England's history, and he was nicknamed the King of Lost Lands.The reason why he got this nickname has a lot to do with Fei Shi - basically all the land he lost was given to Fei Shi.

The war between Philip and John also lasted for [-] years. As a result of the war, England suffered a disastrous defeat, and John was forced to give up all the territories north of Royale that originally belonged to the English Sparrow Dynasty, including Normandy, Aquitaine, and Antonym. Ru and Touraine.

England lost almost all of its territory in Europe and completely became the British Isles, while France's territory tripled.

So here comes the question: Can England be reconciled after being beaten?

The answer is no.

Today you beat me up, tomorrow I have to find a way to beat you up, and the beating turned into a protracted Hundred Years' War between Britain and France.

After reading the files of Louis VII and Eleanor, Henry II, Philip II, Charles I and others, as well as the Hundred Years War between Britain and France, the faces of Zeng Cheng and other bigwigs also became numb.

King Louis VII of France divorced Eleanor, and Eleanor remarried King Henry II of England, leading to the Hundred Years' War between England and France.

Now Louis XVI is divorcing the deficit lady of the Habsburg family, and the deficit lady remarried with George III of England-are they planning to start another Hundred Years War?
After a long silence, Zeng Cheng let out a long sigh and said, "I feel that we, Daming, don't need to send people to trip them up anymore, just because England and France are so tossed about, they can also bring France together." Give it a complete mess."

Zhu Jinsong didn't know what to say for a moment.

In the original history, Louis XVI and Mrs. Deficit were very affectionate, and finally went to the guillotine together.

just now……

In the end, Zhu Jinsong could only say helplessly: "Obviously, the confidence of the Habsburg family now lies in England—what is George III's sand sculpture thinking? Could it be that he hasn't seen a woman in 800 years? Or , George III wants to be a cheap brother-in-law with Louis XVI so much? Didn’t you say that George III went to discuss cooperation with Louis XVI?”

Ke Zhiming cupped his hands and said, "Yes, George III had been to France once before to discuss cooperation with Louis XVI, and Louis XVI proposed to vigorously develop real estate in France and England to achieve the goal of rejuvenating the country through industry."

God damn real estate rejuvenates the country!

After Zhu Jinsong complained to himself, he simply turned his attention to Zeng Cheng: "Send someone to find out about Pierre, just say that I invited Louis XVI to visit Daming for a few days."

After Zeng Cheng bowed down, Zhu Jinsong told Liu Heming and other bigwigs in the five-army governor's mansion: "I have a few things in mind, so get ready."

Liu Heming was taken aback for a moment, and asked, "Your Majesty means that there may be a war?"

Zhu Jinsong shook his head, rubbing his forehead and said: "It's not that there may be a war, but it will definitely be fought-England and France have a century-old feud, and now Louis XVI has been cut face again, England and Hab It is already a situation that has to be fought."

Liu Heming said: "But, what does this have to do with our Daming? England and France are far away in Europe, even if they fight, it will have no effect on our Daming, right?"

Zhu Jinsong laughed, and said: "If it's just England and France fighting, of course it won't have any impact on our Ming Dynasty, but England and the Habsburgs have mixed together, and the Habsburgs are now entangled. A group of young horses made a film about Sand Goose."

"Three of the five great benefactors of Xiao Poguo have personally ended, and I don't know how many small countries are coerced by these three families."

"Once we can't control it, it's very likely that Xiao Poqiu will be in full swing. How many sincere friends do you think our Daming has on Xiao Poqiu, and how many people hate our Daming?"

Speaking of this, Zhu Jinsong couldn't help but shook his head again, and said: "What's more, wars are not something that can be fought just by talking about it. It's better to be prepared in advance than to rush into battle. Some."

"By the way, the firearms produced for the Habsburg family have been delivered as soon as possible, and at the same time, we must make preparations to support French firearms."

However, after Zhu Jinsong's words fell, a young eunuch hurried in outside the door, and carefully handed Zhang Dequan a note.
