1457. King Henry VI of England and his son Edward were taken captive by the York family and clan. Henry's wife, the beautiful Margaret of Anjou, was also taken prisoner, but by miracle and force of will, the 27-year-old queen escaped.
the feud between the Yorks and the Langsters will subside for a couple of years, and then flare up again, but no one knows about it. Now, Margaret, full of determination and hatred, flees to Scotland, to enlist the support of the Scottish army and the government.
"You must take part in this war! Not only is Margaret of Anjou, Queen of England, standing before you, and you are obliged to obey me. so you and your state will not live if the Yorkists ascend the throne. Do you want higher taxes? Do you want more attacks and robberies?"
Margaret said this with determination and confidence, looking at all the nobility of Scotland who accepted the Queen of England.
You were an ordinary governess in the castle of the ruler of Scotland and you only heard rumors and gossip about the great Margaret of Anjou. Now, you could see with your own eyes the grandeur, pride, and confidence of this woman.
Margaret of Anjou clearly collected all the best heritage of her female ancestors. Her mother and grandmother would have been proud of Margaret if they had seen the fire of determination that blazed in Margaret's brown eyes.
Even at 27 years old, the woman was so strong-willed, so confident, so determined and even a little bloodthirsty and cruel. but her mood was understandable, after all, her son and husband were in captivity with the Yorkists. and even if Margaret was greedy for power, her family was still not the last thing the proud and determined queen worried about.
