Three Sisters and Three Queens (collector's Edition)
About This Novel
Power and love are always difficult to have at the same time, but truth and death go hand in hand - In the hot summer of 1503, Margaret of the Tudor family held a grand ceremony with the King of Scotland. The marriage and coronation simultaneously gave the Tudor princess happiness and power. She was very satisfied with the marriage: she was marrying a mature monarch, while Catherine, who was married to her brother Arthur, was just a princess. However, thousands of miles away and alone, she could only confide in endless letters with Catherine and her sister Mary, who was married to France. The three aristocratic women were like sisters, but they also had hidden jealousies. They had no choice about the future. Giving birth to a precious heir was the only meaning of becoming a queen. Conspiracy and lust for power separate their emotions. How will they finally make a choice? "Three Sisters and Three Queens" focuses on the three women around Henry VIII: his biological sisters and his first queen. Margaret and Mary married in Scotland and France respectively, while Catherine, who became his queen, came from Spain. Although the three of them were royal ladies, they essentially still had to rely on male dignitaries to make a living. The meaning of life was just to give birth to children, but under the harsh medical conditions at the time, every birth was like a trip to hell. Whichever of them gives birth to a prince first, may become the mother of the Tudor heir. The emotions of the three people are interdependent and undercurrent... The book shows the reality of the low social status of women at that time from the side many times, and can also see the budding self-awareness of women who are bound by traditional education.
