I was beheaded in the Middle Ages for 20 years

In fact, Philip VI did not teach John these two things until his death.

Pay attention to the behavior of nobles.

And escape.

In 1359, John, who had been king for less than ten years, was finally captured by Edward, the Black Prince of England, at the Battle of Poitiers.

The British army led by the Black Prince numbered eight thousand, while the French army claimed to be twenty-five thousand.

The battle was lost suddenly.

Judging from the literature, John's military methods were not weaker than those of his father Philip VI, let alone Edward, the Black Prince.

When the two sides were negotiating, a British noble proposed that each side send out a hundred knights to compete in a joust to determine the outcome of the battle.

If it hadn't been for the refusal of the nobles, John would have agreed to this condition and would mount his horse in person to compete with Knight Edward.

The reason is very simple. The French army has a large number of people, four times more than the British army on the opposite side. Why should they have a fair duel with the British army?
John was forced to refuse the offer of a duel, which he liked very much.

There are many reasons why John lost this battle.

But in summary, there are only two points.

Edward, the Black Prince, fought with his last resort, while John's French army was desperate.

It can be said that John was reckless in fighting and liked to lead the charge rather than escape. He deserved to be caught.

So are the nobles right to be suspicious of the French royal family?
If it weren't for the huge estrangement between the Fagui and the royal family, John might not have lost to the Black Prince in this battle, let alone be easily captured as a prisoner.

You know, when his father John was arrested, his son Charlie, who was just 19 years old, had to stand up as regent at a young age and re-support the French royal family.

Although some of the methods were dishonorable, it cannot be said that what Charlie did was wrong.

It can even be said that from the perspective of the French royal family, Charlie is really smart and wise.

In this mess, it is not easy to save his father, suppress the uprising, fight a war, improve the gap between the nobles and the royal family, and reverse the situation of the Hundred Years War between England and France.

Of course, these funeral events are still too far away for Xu Siling.

From Xu Siling's perspective, Philip VI would not have lived long even if he did not fight.

He was around fifty years old, which was considered a long life in the Middle Ages.

Philip VI died within a year or two.

The reason why Xu Siling insisted on going north has always been to find opportunities to get in touch with John and Charlie, the father and son.

History does not speak well of Philip VI, and Xu Siling was not very interested in a dying king.

Instead, I wanted to confirm whether John and Charlie, the father and son, were who they were as history said.

in the case of.

That at least proves that the Kingdom of France can still be saved.

He didn't talk about saving the Kingdom of France, but considering it from Mayfair's perspective, it was certain that he would give priority to supporting the French royal family.

If you come to Paris and get in touch with John and Charlie, you will find that the situation between father and son and history are completely different.

John is not a good person, and Charlie did not show any wise temperament when he was a child.

Then he immediately took Mayfair south to find the Pope, looking for an opportunity to take the Pope to Rome.

Isn't it a wonderful life to be a pope and a saint with peace of mind?

He couldn't jump out of the pit of the Kingdom of France with his eyes closed.

But now after a brief introduction, Xu Siling has a pretty good impression of John and Charlie, the father and son.

Charlie doesn't know yet, at least John is a fool knight.

In fact, there was one thing that Xu Siling ignored.

He did not ignore what Philip VI said.

John's wife Bonnet and Pope Clement VI died basically at the same time.

And they all died from the Black Death.

This is a good reason to die.

But if they are put together by coincidence, there is no room for suspicion.

It was like a hand that deliberately pressed these two people to death on the ground.

It just so happened that Xu Siling didn't know.

At this time, Philip VI really wanted to kill Bonnet and Clement VI.

Palace Library.

Philip VI felt a little helpless after his success, but things still had to be done.

It is a good thing to issue an official document to promote Xu Siling's reputation as a perfect knight.

As Xu Siling became famous, Fei'er's reputation and status would also rise, which would indirectly affect the nobles' views on the royal family.

After all, Feier is now well-known for being part of the royal family faction, and the nobles all know that Feier supports the royal family.

But Philip VI did not forget that he had hinted Madam Bonnet to hold this tea party for aristocratic women.

The purpose is to find an opportunity for Blanche and John to get to know each other so that he can take the lead.

Even though Blanche grew up in the palace, John basically didn't like to stay in the palace. Ever since Philip VI became the regent, quarrels were inevitable when they met.

John really didn't like staying in the palace, so Blanche and John never met each other.

Philip VI knew that John loved Bonnet very much, but Blanche's special status could not allow her to be exiled.

If you want to be cheap, you can only be cheap to the Valois family.

He was old, so it was natural that the next king, John, would have to do this.

Blanche's beauty was naturally seen by Philip VI, and she was worthy of being called the beautiful and wise being in the kingdom by the nobles.

When a woman pursues a man, there is a veil between them.

As long as Blanche is obedient and gets to know John, how can she, a beautiful woman like her, seduce John with just a move of his fingers?
Now Blanche is still preparing to attend the dinner at John's mansion. Philip VI cannot ask about the subsequent details and can only find out after she returns to the palace.

In the palace, Philip VI worked alone and silently.

And John's private residence.

John, who fled from the palace, also collected his emotions on the way.

This was his first time calling his father a stupid pig.

Philip VI was not a good king, but he was a good father.

John recalled that when Philip VI was not king, the relationship between father and son was much better than it is now.

The reason why he was obsessed with chivalry was partly due to the influence of Philip VI.

You must know that when Philip VI was young, he was also a reckless young knight, who was worse than John.

But fortunately, John was used to such things as quarrels.

When John returned to the mansion, he found his busy wife Bonnet and told her that he hoped Xu Siling would become the swordsmanship teacher of the mansion.

Bonnet naturally agreed. It is estimated that no one in Paris would refuse such a thing now - except Mrs. Stein.

But when he heard John say that he wanted Xu Siling to be his teacher, Bonnet's head shook like a rattle.

"My husband, let's forget about this kind of thing. I know you like Knight Raya very much, and I believe Knight Raya also has a good impression of you. But given your age and your identity, you still want to recognize Raya. Knights as teachers”

Mrs. Bonnet watched as John's expression gradually lost.

She, who had always doted on her husband, couldn't help but feel helpless.

"Husband, not to mention what the king thinks, the nobles alone will definitely laugh at your behavior. You are now the crown prince and the future king of France. I know that you and the king have disagreements and are prone to quarrels. But I know that the king He trusts you, and you must live up to the king’s trust.”

John waved his hand: "What if Charlie is allowed to recognize Xu as his teacher."

To be honest, Bonnet hesitated.

It's not bad, but it's a very good thing.

Charlie is still young and still has room to grow, so being with Xu Siling is beneficial in all aspects.

Not to mention anything else, if Charlie could really learn one and a half moves from Xu Siling, it would be a huge advantage for Charlie.

You know, when John becomes king, Charles will be the dauphin. But even if you are the crown prince, whether you can command the nobles and knights militarily and make them listen to you properly depends on your means and reputation.

The apprentice of the perfect knight of the kingdom.

Throwing this title away can increase Charlie's military prestige.

A hundred years later, it does not matter whether Madame Bonnet still uses this title or not.

at least for now
No one can dispute the glory of this title.

Because in the eyes of Mrs. Bonnet, the era when knights are proud of Xu Siling is coming.

There is no harm in letting Charlie become Xu Siling's apprentice.

If there is anything wrong with it, Mrs. Bonnet is reluctant to do so.

Xu Siling will not be in Paris forever. He and Mayfair came to Paris on a mission.

After the meeting between Mayfair and Philip VI is over, they will still have to return to Raya Town.

Then the question lies here, should Charlie go back with Xu Siling?

Following back, Mrs. Bonnet, who dotes on her husband and son, is really reluctant to let go.

After this, she won't be able to see her good son for at least a few years.

If not, let Charlie study with Xu Siling in Paris for a few days.

What can be learned?
It would also be a joke if you told it.

Finally Bonnet and John discussed the time when Charlie became a master and apprentice.

He didn't ask whether Xu Siling would agree at all, nor did he care about Charlie's opinion.

John wanted Charlie to stay with Xu Siling for five years, and then come back when Charlie became an adult.

Madame Bonnet was naturally unwilling.

The two argued and pulled, and finally set the time at two years.

As for how much Charlie can learn in two years, it depends on his ability.

Even if you haven't learned anything, it's not bad to have your identity gilded.

After discussing it, John found his good son Charlie.

As soon as this matter was said, Charlie was so angry that he quarreled with John and refused directly.

The quarrel between father and son is probably a tradition in the Valois family.

No matter what happens, quarrel is the solution.

The reason why Charlie was angry was simple. It wasn't that he didn't want to recognize Xu Siling as his teacher. Who wouldn't want to do this?

Especially Charlie witnessed with his own eyes how Xu Siling descended from heaven to earth.

In the Middle Ages, men all pursued strength first. Charlie didn't care about the so-called chivalry, but the charm behind Xu Siling's tough strength deeply fascinated Charlie.

With Xu Siling as his teacher, Charlie is certainly willing to raise his butt.

When he was angry, he was angry with John and Bonnet. He did not discuss things with him and made his own decisions.

"I'm old, I can decide my own affairs! You and mother will help me decide everything!"

"The butt is so big that I can't even kick it. Who are you showing that face to? I'm telling you, if your mother comes over later and makes such a stinky face, you won't be able to eat tonight."

"If you don't want to eat, don't eat! Stop trying to scare me like this. If you dare to hit me, I'll go find grandpa!"

When Philip VI was mentioned, the anger in John's chest suddenly rose again. He grabbed Charlie's collar and was about to turn him over and spank him.

Charlie is also the first person in Europe to threaten me with him.

Charlie was still small and was no match for John, so he was caught immediately.

He also had a good reputation and didn't scream when he was caught, otherwise more people would see it. John was not embarrassed, but he was embarrassed.

Just when John was about to take action, Mrs. Bonnet came over and almost fainted when she saw this scene.

There are still so many nobles here in the mansion now. If anyone knew that John was beating her son, she would lose face.

He quickly took his son away from John.

After asking, I found out the reason.

Charlie was angry at his parents for taking matters into their own hands.

John was angry that his son was threatening his father.

"Then my child, don't you want to recognize Knight Raya as your teacher?"

"I think so, but I have to decide for myself!"

"What to decide."

"I want to stay with Mr. Siling and learn swordsmanship. No matter if it's five years or ten years, if I don't learn something, I will never return to Paris!"

John's eyes lit up and he took the opportunity to kick Charlie in the butt.

"This is my good son! If you are ambitious, your father will support you! If you don't learn well, don't come back!"

I heard the father and son reach a consensus.

Bonnet fainted again.

John was not in a hurry to talk to Xu Siling about letting Xu Siling be a swordsmanship teacher.

Because Xu Siling was not at the dinner this time.

On the one hand, it was quite tiring, and on the other hand, it was a jousting joust to win the whole game, and it was also a knight joust to challenge a group of people.

Even the mules were very tired.

On the other hand, it was difficult for Xu Siling to show up at the dinner at this time.

He didn't want to be an animal in a zoo being watched around.

This kind of enjoyment should be left to Mayfair.

Many female nobles stayed for the dinner, mostly because of Xu Siling.

Now that Xu Siling is away, the pressure will naturally fall on Fei'er.

With her petite body, Mayfair has taken on pressure that she shouldn't bear and has been 'besieged' by many female aristocrats in Paris.

Fortunately, if you prepare in advance, you can use your brain to know what is going to happen.

Anyway, after the dinner, Fei'er's face froze with laughter.

When she returned to Count de Bulwa's house, Faile rubbed her stiff face with her hands all the way.

At this time, Xu Siling was staring at the personal information window in bed in a daze.
