The prisoner of the CHATEAU GAILLARD

Beatrice, do you know why Pope Clement died?

From the curse, madam. At once, God created a good deal.

Strong blows from the hand of God, if the human hand helps as well.

No

The doctors treated his intestinal colics

with the powdered emeralds.

Wonderful tool: cuts through the womb. Behind it definately lies the old Templar.

- How do you know? - I know.

Either way, his death is good for us.

There is no more Pope to divorce my daughters. We'll have to wait for the next.

What do you cook? The new powder?

You try, lady, for you.

These are the langues d'Aunay brothers.

I begged them from the Pontus' executioner and dried over a fire at midnight,

to call the devil.

It's ashes?

If the ashes of a man ruined by Nogaret

mix with the "Pharaoh's serpent" the flame will be fatal.

Filthy pig Nogaret!

Does he go as the second in the list of the Grand Master?

I came to pay debt for the house of Artois.

His Majesty wishes to receive an advance payments from the Temple.

You should be glad: Pope Clement is dead.

The curse of the Masters begins to realize.

- Would you like to help him again? - Who?

Your sworn enemy.

- The one to whom you owe your lameness. - Nogaret!

Does he takes candles from you?

I know a sure way to poison the candles. Leaves no traces and the antidote is not known.

The one who breathe in their fire, for just an hour, will not see another fire.

Or just the flames of hell.

Tell me how you managed being a Templar

keep chaste?

I am always being bad keeper.

Messire de Nogaret was at the Council in the morning! And he was in perfect health!

Patience, madam. Langue can not lie.

No! The poison is swallowed and not inhaled!

Nogaret, your advice?

Nothing can help? His suffering is terrible.

Pope Clement, a knight Guillaume de Nogaret,

King Philip ...

I'm burning! I'm burning!

Pope Clement, after a month! A month later - Nogaret.

Coincidence, sir.

Such things happen on a daily basis.

We are not surprised by them, because we do not notice.

We are getting old with the time, Angerran. Is not it a curse?

Keep only what belongs to the royal archives.

Nogaret was a faithful servant, Angerran.

But for 29 years: processes, executions, deaths!

Look what that bishop has wrote. Listen, sir.

"Nothing will bend him. It's - The Iron King. "

The Iron King?

Thus spoke and the Grand Master.

I conceal my weaknesses so well?

We have canonized my grandfather, Louis the Ninth. But was he the saint?

Royals are more respected, if there is at least one saint.

And the Jews? Are there too many we burned?

They're also God's creations. Similar mortals like us.

You followed the example of Louis the saint.

And the kingdom was in need of their wealth.

But why? For what? Where are my victories?

Power - is the creation which can not be completed.

Perhaps I'll die in a few weeks. And what did I do?

- Which of my deeds will outlive me? - The Kingdom, Majesty.

How many cities and provinces you have expanded it!

You made it the strongest in the world.

But my people are unhappy.

I know, they complain about increase of the price of grains everywhere, on meager incomes.

I would gladly have given them everything they ask, but it takes time, not only my will.

There is only one way to

to increase the treasury.

Yes, sir.

Lombards.

No. Just do not Lombards.

I do not want to repeat the same mistake.

The threat becomes apparent Tolomei.

Marigny has been secretly preparing to take benefits from the Lombard Company.

Fortunately, we started to export assets of France.

Much of our wealth is already abroad.

Marigny knows this and will use your flight to justify his actions.

The fate of the Templars awaits you. Leave!

Return to Italy there is still time!

Calm down, calm down.

This is still far away, Your Highness. Also, I know the way

how to put in chains and even destroy Marigny.

When it's time we'll decide. But I'll need some help.

You can count on me, Tolomei. And on my uncle Valois.

What is this way?

This secret must not leave our the family.

This is the receipt of Sana's Archbishop, Marigny's brother,

for goods, stolen from the Templars.

If misfortune happens to me, take this paper to His Highness d'Artois.

He will give it to the Count of Valois, who is able to use it.

And here the loans of His Grace d'Artois

and documents of the process against his aunt Mahaut.

I thought he was your friend.

I do not think he refuses to help you, if it is needed.

But you will look more convincing, if, along with your request

show him the bill.

Keep it in a safe place. I think our department Neauphle is quite suitable.

In Neauphle the archers may get any time.

The documents are better to hand over to the faithful people.

For example, a family Crassey. They are our debtors.

If nothing has changed, their daughter Marie agrees to help.

Well, see, you start to understand.

Banker will even benefit from a good heart.

- Do you trust them? - I trust her as himself.

The fate of our companies is now halfway in my hands and half - in yours.

Remember this, my boy.

I could not imagine a better place for our meeting.

You have accused me of that I trade my daughters.

Tell me as a merchant to merchant, was it expensive to buy their inprisonment?

What happens, my aunt?

Why are you looking to quarrel with me again? I thought that we are reconciled.

You're in league with Nogaret, and he always hated me!

You revenged me through my daughters.

Forget it, auntie. All these are empty speculations.

Once you know the guilty one, so be my friend and do not suspect me of intrigues.

Or have you forgotten that I have passed this test next to you as a loyal son.

I am not guilty in your disgrace.

And even if it was like this, what will you get if you caught me?

This will not correct the errors of your daughters and will not return their husbands.

If it was like this Robert, you would not live long and rejoice the mercy of fate.

Yes, but so far I care more about your destiny, aunt.

Your Highness, abou our companies go nasty rumors.

Of course, these rumors concern us.

I admit, they affect our trade badly.

Your trade is irrelevant to the affairs of the kingdom.

And then, a lot of people talking.

You should not trust these rumors.

Your Highness, I will not hide: we are very attached to the land on which we live.

And we want to help the kingdom.

I allowed myself to bring you this humble gift.

"20 013 livres "

Very honorable desire.

However, a rumor came to my ears

Some companies have sent caravans with gold to Italy.

I assure you, this is silly nonsense.

People are talking a lot, Your Highness. Do not pay attention.

I hope my modest gift will be the vow of our devotion.

No doubt, no doubt.

But once you make such a gift, hence, you hide twenty times more.

If gold will leave kingdom

The King would not accept it.

In this case, our trade will be a matter of the kingdom?

We told each other everything that had been necessary, Messer Tolomei.

Your brother, Monseigneur, the Archbishop of Sana, is still in town?

Yes.

Would it be much for your Grace to tell him

I'm looking for an early meeting with him by a known issue?

I did not know that he had with you a common business.

The main advantage of a good is the ability to be silent.

But as you are the brother of His Eminence,

I will tell you that we are talking about the property belonging to him,

us and our Holy Mother Church.

Ask him to find me as soon as possible. If he wants to.

Do not worry, no one walks in here.

Since we do not have a chaplain, We go to Mass in Neauphle.

I keep a key to our chapel.

I could be given shelter in twenty housess, but I came to you.

Now my life depends from your silence.

Do not worry, no one saw you came. No one will know of your arrival.

From now on, yours became my secret.

No! No, not at the church.

Black Spring for the kingdom.

Fourteenth year of the century, my brother. This year always brings bad luck.

But this time, your environment brings misfortune.

Marigny lost all sense of proportion.

It uses your trust, cheats on you and pushes you to the path that will benefit him.

Our cousin, Robert can tell a lot of its management practices in Artois.

Once I have listened to all that our cousin could say about Artois.

On the issue, that I suppose being closed

Marigny had given me more robust advices than you, dear brother.

No, ma'am. I'm sorry, but the king still does not want to see you.

Seen, auntie?

Nogaret does not exist any more, but you're still the mother of your daughters.

And you are all the same dog!

If I doubted once, now I know

who was the cause of my misery, and dealt with Isabella.

Come on, come on! Anger is closed you mind, auntie.

Nobody had helped to decrease your daughters, they fell on their own.

You're lying!

Traitor!

Of all your dirty tricks, this is the lowest! Bastard!

What would you do in my place, Your Eminence?

Try to imagine that someone wishes to harm you.

He threatens you, wants to destroy you, but

you have a mascot.

Yes, the mascot, which will help you to avoid any crash.

What do you do?

- You do not want to say ... - Yes, Your Eminence.

I want to say. You robbed the king.

- I have prooves. - You rascal!

I'm a business person.

Whether you like it or not, but at this moment we're concluding a deal.

If your brother coadjutor, refuses to plunder Lombards,

you'll avoid a scandal.

Otherwise, if I shall fall, you shall fall with me, but from a much greater height.

And I think your brother, who is too rich enough to not have enemies,

will follow you.

Give a receipt!

With all the desire I can not: I do not have it with me.

- You are lying! - No.

I made all arrangements in I case I prematurely leave this world.

My relatives in Siena will take the matter to the King.

Your Eminence.

Traitor! Traitor in your own family!

You are worse than an animal: they do not bite feeding hand. You are nobody!

- I do not consider you're my brother. - Well you are, sir, cursing me!

Where does your state come from?

How many Jews were ruined for it? How many Templars were grilled?

I took an example from you.

If I knew what a man you were, I would not have made you Archbishop.

You would not find another who would agreed to burn the Grand Master.

So much work for nothing! So much work!

Leave me alone. Go ahead, I'll catch with you.

I do not remember, Madam, that I was looking for a meeting with you.

- You were looking for, sir. - Because I do not want to see you.

These words!

I came to hear them from you, cousin,

and not from your servants.

Now, when they are told I obey.

You - and no one else.

- But ... - Madam, do not.

The fate of your daughters is solved. Do not think you can change it.

Not the care of my daughters has brought me here.

We carry the same punishment, Philip. This happens to us for the first time.

In earlier times, the friendship has helped us through many sad days.

Now, you are depriving me from your friendship.

Because of this loss, I do not recognize myself.

I can not deprive you of a thing so dear for me.

But for now I am not ready to open the doors in front of you.

Then I'll wait, sir.

- Now I have the strength to wait. - Thank you for coming, cousin.

Cross!

It's been the third month, he wanders within himself.

Why he wanted to come to Fontainebleau?

Nobody knows what's going on with his mind.

The Conclave has not decided.

Brother Renault.

Yes, sir?

You seem to be in a fog.

Have I already confessed?

I made a testament to give the great Cross of Templars to the Dominican sisters?

Yes, sir.

You do not want to change your will?

Drink!

Drink!

See, Louis.

See what it means to be the king.

In the hands of the Lord ...

In the hands of the Lord!

In the hands of the Lord!

I bet with this King the owner of Artois soon be replaced.

Never, Robert! As long as I live, this will never happen.

My brathers, let us turn our prayers to the sky.

The Lord has called for the soul of our beloved,

noble King Philip.

Praise the Lord, he's dead!

Messer Bersyume, do you know, whom you are protecting now?

It is well known, madam.

I think only about this since I was awakened by a messenger from Rouen.

So take the trouble to protect me from frost and pests!

For 7 months of captivity, I got tired to chew timber to maintain the whiteness of my teeth,

and rub my hands with fat from soup to save my skin from cracking from the cold.

I do not have the order, madam.

You wait to receive an order to pay little attention to the queen of France?

As queen, madam, you will understand my effort to serve the kingdom faithfully.

I can not break the instructions I was given.

How do you think I can again become beautiful?

I must become very old, since you ask such questions.

The news from France, Your Majesty!

No! No!

No!

Spread the fire!

Remove this cheap bed. Bring beds, chairs, cloth, finally!

- And food. - And the food! Of course, ma'am.

Pate, roast, wine, Bersyume! Get plenty of wine, quick!

Dear cousin, I came to release you

I have a message for you.

Whose message?

Louis, your spouse and now our King.

And also from our cousin Valois.

- Louis still hates me? - Yes, ma'am.

I will not conceal: hates.

The horns, that you have decorated his head with, can not be hided even under the French crown.

- What does he want? - Termination of your marriage.

- He requests the termination? - Yes.

- What can I do? - You can do a lot.

Admit, that you did not allow him to your body and gave birth to a daughter not from Louis.

The termination of the marriage will followe by itself.

And you will live somewhere, where and how it pleases you.

It means to use a shameless lie.

I have to think before taking a decision.

All right.

It's your turn to sleep, Lorme!

That's all that you have found? I asked to get good meat.

Think of a miracle that we got hold of this although it's a hungry time.

Hungry time - for tramps, who've decided

that the land should grow seedlings without processing, but not for noble people.

So, cousin, what do you think?

I thought, cousin.

I'm afraid I must refuse.

Forget it, Margarita.

Your words are reckless.

It is in your best interest to do as requested.

Otherwise?

Otherwise, the marriage would still be dissolved, my dear.

Once the Pope will be chosen.

So the Pope has not yet been chosen?

As long as there is no Pope, you will not succeed getting around me.

It is stupid being stubborn, my dear.

What benefits do you get from my agreement?

I want to please the king to become his favorite.

So he gives me back my land, that was taken away with this witch Mahaut.

Now you can see that we have to make an alliance.

Why don't you announce your daughter illegitimate?

- You do not love this child. - I do not like.

Is this not a proof that she is of my spouse?

Stop it!

We'll write this letter as soon as possible and use this time for ourselves.

The chaplain will help to put it in the right form.

He is waiting downstairs.

Waiting downstairs? Really?

Ah, cousin! You think I'm stupid enough to give in to your tricks?

You re-open my senses to subject (to bend) me to your will sooner.

You are trying to spin me like a whore spins the men.

But you forget, this there is no one skilled better in this business then women.

- You are only a weak disciple! - No!

You're wrong, Margarita. I wish you the best.

I will not sign anything. Abused me, because you are stronger than me!

But I will tell everybody about your art of diplomacy.

My daughter was born from Louis! If he dies, what I desire with all my heart,

she will become the queen of France, and I - the queen-mother.

I can not longer remain with you.

I must return to Paris for the funeral of the king.

You have very little chance of success, my dear. Very few.

As long as they are, I will not give up!

The king is dead! Long live the king!

The king is dead! Long live the king!

Come on, Louis.

You were at his coronation. What did he do? What did he say?

He immediately took his burden.

I said to drive him away! Remove the dog.

It brings bad luck.

Madame Jeanne, greet the king, your father.

Why have they brought her here? I do not want to see her!

Take her to Nel.

Louis! She is your daughter.

Are you sure? I've had enough even one doubt.

People laugh at me. But I will make myself respected.

First of all, my marriage with Marguerite is to terminate.

I want to be cleansed from the shame. You say she will not give up?

I came across such a determined rejection that I can assure you: we can get nothing from her.

Your wife dreams to outlive you.

My uncle, it was not as simple as you predicted.

Dissolution of my marriage does not come tomorrow.

The time is needed to select the Pope.

Why not find a wife today, which would be worthy of a queen

and provide you with the offspring?

Do you have any suggestions?

Dozens of princesses will be happy to try the French crown.

For example we don't need to go far to seek: my niece, Clementia Hungarian.

Her brother Sharober reigns in Hungary now and her uncle is the King of Naples.

Although she went out of the age at which is decided to get married ...

- How old is she? - Twenty-two.

But is she not better than girls who play with dolls

and, like Margarita, are disclosed in all its glory

to grow up evil creatures and prostitutes?

Sounds tempting. It she at least not a brunette, like Margarita?

In this case, nothing will happen.

No, she is blonde of a good Frankish blood.

She is the most beautiful woman in Naples. Beautiful and virtuous.

Painters copy her features, drawing image of the Virgin in the churches.

Beautiful and virtuous?

My dear cousin, bravo! You sold your niece Clementia.

Someone will spend that night on the hot sheets!

Robert, you're talking about the King!

A little girl Jeanne? Are you sure that she was not from him?

Today, I'm not so sure. But tomorrow everybody will have the same opinion on this point.

Messire de Marigny!

Unfortunate time of your glory is behind. We relieve you from the pedestal.

Your poor brother is pathetic.

I'm worried about his health: the king must be strong.

Who inherited the throne,

should have the power to keep on it straight.

Wake up the king, the prince asleep, - you should get used to such a change.

You would be a better king than he.

Very sorry, my boy, that you were born the second.

Your father, the Lord be with him gracious, often regretted it.

But when the daughter of Margarita, baby Joanne

is declared illegitimate,

we have a good reason to think, you will be the first in the list of the heirs.

Your turn to rule will come!

My brother can find a new spouse, who will give him an heir.

No sooner than his first marriage will be terminated, and we need to live until it.

What feelings do you have for my daughter Jeanne?

Your wife loves you. She did not betray you neither with her body nor her soul.

It's all Margarita's fault.

Clement, Nogaret, King Philip!

In less than a year, you will appear before the court of God!

You will get a well-deserved punishment!

- Get up! - Your Majesty?

Go and fetch Madame Edelina.

Your Highness ... that is Your Majesty!

I knew that I should not lay you fresh sheets. It's bad to sleep on them.

I called you, not for the sheets.

After your return to the palace, have you remember me?

- Where is your daughter now? - With my mother.

I did not want her to be next to me. She is too much like her father.

In this one at least I am sure she is from me.

Her face resembles yours every day more and more.

You would be embarrassing if she is stared at the yard.

- How old is she? - Was nine, Your Majesty.

I'll make her a princess, as soon as she enters into the age of consent.

I want it.

Do you? What do you want?

I can not. I can not.

You were so cold that night, and you're upset.

It may happen to anyone on the day of father's funeral.

This whore Margarita is to blame in everything!

My father did not want to kill her. He did not avenge me!

Now I'm dying! I will never get asleep on this ill-fated bed!

It is not true, Your Majesty.

This is a good bed. The Royal.

And to get rid of anxiety, you need to bring the queen into this bed.

Do you think so, Edelina?

Well, yes. The Queen, who make you happy.

Messire de Pr�ll is ill?

Messires de Bourdonnais, de Brian�on Dubois are also not that well?

I do not see any of them.

I was not instructed to convene (gather) the Council.

Messire de Marigny, the king calls on the Council, whom he pleases and when he pleases.

What are the issues of interest of Your Majesty?

Collection of taxes, state treasury, crop failure?

The King will work later. He called us not for this.

He wants to take another wife.

He chose Clementia of Hungary, the niece of the King of Naples.

Marigny, your advice?

The King may desire any princess in the world.

I understand that his impatience has overcome.

However, we should start with the dissolution of the current marriage.

You need a Pope.

You have been promising us the Pope for the six months, Marigny.

But the conclave does not bring any despite your assurances!

I've tried to block the election of Italian Pope.

I want a Pope who will be ready to serve France.

And if, in exchange for marriage to Clementia

The King of Naples ensures the election of French Cardinal to the Papacy?

Of course, Your Highness, such an agreement would make sense.

However, I doubt that it is possible.

Bouville, go to Naples.

Go back to Avignon and urged the conclave.

Yes, sir!

As the cardinals like hard cash, let Messire de Marigny provide you with gold.

But where to get the gold, your majesty?

In the royal treasury, of course.

The treasury is empty, sir. We are waiting for the new revenues.

What? The treasury is empty?

But if the kingdom had not receive benefits of your Lille transactions,

I think you have done some profits?

Sire, I would like Messire de Valois to

explaine the meaning of his speeches or take them back!

I tell you openly that there are a lot of whispering behind your back.

Everyone knows that the Flemings had paid you for the withdrawal of our troops

and that you took the amount

intended to enter the treasury!

Sire, today I've heard such things,

that no man of honor could bear.

I was accused of theft in front of you

and of dealing with the enemies of the kingdom.

Since no single voice rises to my defense of this blatant lie,

I beg you to appoint a commission to check my accounts.

Well! The Commission will be appointed, once you've asked for it.

Until then, I beg you to stay away from the treasury.

I would bypass it. Your Majesty.

Theer will not be any agreement in Avignon!

Let them debate, even bite each other - do everything for the sake, my brother.

Sowing quarrels in the conclave, I risk to bring disgrace of the future Pope.

The Scarlet Cardinal's hat, if you deserve it, my poor Jean, I'll put on you,

as I have put your bishop's miter.

Have you destroyed the evidence, you left incautiously by Tolomei banker?

Go to the Chateau-Gaillard and tell Bersyume, not to let anyone to Margarita

without the paper with my or your seal.

Let this donkey know that I will cut his ears, if he violates the order.

What fate do you want for Margarita?

Let her live! Let her live!

She is my hostage, and I will keep her.

My account must be as pure as snow.

Let the furniture being paid, for all the work that was ordered by the crown!

Pay up every last sou.

Even those who are willing to wait.

His Highness de Valois wishes to take possession of the treasury? Let him!

Let him chew the nails in frustration: he'll have to search for intrigue money elsewhere.

The party, which Marigny has started with us, will be his last.

I will destroy him!

In the morning the banker was summoned. Soon he will be here.

He will help you. Of course, not for nothing but he will help.

Fortune always laughs at me.

My title is the emperor of Byzantium, but I'm devoid of all possessions.

Even in this house almost everything is put in repledge (inpawned).

Now I have to depend on the Sienna banker

to bring the order in the kingdom at last.

Messer Tolomei!

My friend, I have a great debt,

but I promised to pay it fully as soon as possible.

And now the moment has come.

Happy news, Your Highness!

I return my debts, bringing you a customer of royal blood!

Your Highness, how can I be of assistance?

Yoy may offer all that the bankers can be helpful.

We now have a need for money to send an embassy to Naples.

Could I find out how great is your need?

- Ten thousand livres. - Holy Virgin! Where can I find that kind of money?

Stop being sly!

I called you so that you fulfill your usual work and not without benefit to you.

You see, Your Highness, my work is to lend money and not give them as gifts.

In recent years I gave enough money, not getting them back.

Alas, I do not hold the coin machine and have not founded the philosopher's stone yet.

- I guarantie you with the Treasury. - Of course! Everyone knows that the treasury is empty.

Soon all will change. We will return the country the good old customs of St. Louis.

- All the feudal customs? - Exactly.

This is interesting!

Again, you will give barons the right to mint coins on their lands?

In this case, I can deliver metal.

Yes, Messer Tolomei.

And you will restore the right to civil wars?

If you need to equip the troops, I will link you with the best Tuscan gunsmiths

at the best price.

Now have you finally decided to give me the needed amount?

To oblige you, I am sending my man as ambassador to Naples.

He will take the money and will make written notices of the account.

Your messenger should look decently next to Messire de Bouville.

Because it would be his a companion.

I think about it. I think about it.

The young man that went to England instead of me! Your nephew.

- Gucci?

You can be sure, cousin, this boy is the perfect choice.

I will miss him but he is yours.

As you see, Your Highness, I am ready to fulfill your every wish.

You can not find anyone else? This trip is not of much inspiration for me, my uncle.

You are weird, my boy!

The fate has given you a trip to Naples.

You will be a companion of the great Chamberlain Bouville,

see the future queen of Clementia of Hungary;

go through Avignon and visit the conclave that elects the Pope.

And you do not want to go?

But I was given our department in Neauphle!

You hurry to your Mademoiselle de Cressay.

Remember that the distance ruins small love, but it strengthens the great one.

If she loves you, she waits.

This is my nephew Guccio Baglioni.

He will accompany you on a journey and receives gold from our resellers (mediators).

- My boy, you're happy with everything? - Do not worry, Your Highness.

Then, hurry! We've been expecting you.

Do not worry: the women were created to wait.

They will not run away.

But what is easy to lose is the youth

and strength to travel around the world.

Good luck!

Go, go!

You are blushing.

You are only slightly thinner.

- I have made friends with the captors. - Nice, my girl.

Do you know how to swim through the waves and keep the course in bad weather.

Really? What have I done to be within these walls?

Listened to my mother, loved my husband,

was a friend to my cousins and protected my sister!

What is my crime? Say!

I'm paying for others mother, and a great price.

King Philip is dead, and yet he put me here.

Where is his son - my husband, who you gave me?

Does he care to get me back - a woman which he confessed in love?

Do you know that Philip bitters your fate.

But his pride is stronger then pity.

You'll come back to him, Jeanne, I swear to you.

And will you keep the oath?

He never forgave me and will never forgive.

I can not bear it anymore! Do you understand? I can not!

It happens that I doubt in the existence of God, the love which you have inspired me with.

And yourself?

Where were you while I was struggling for life?

Where were you on the day of the process, when I begged you to save Blanche?

You had two daughters, mother.

Are they both to perish in prison for that they were not born boys?

Joanne.

It seems that your hair has become thicker than before.

Yes. But they grow slowly.

When I get out of here I will wear false braids.

False braids tangle in bed at night.

Joanne.

I'll give you freedom.

King is married to Margarita. He would not allow.

King has been thinking only about divorce.

But without the Pope's divorce is impossible.

I've bribed the cardinals to delay the election.

During this time I will find out a way of rescuing you.

Pull out your sister from Chateau Gaillard is another problem.

- Have you seen Blanche? - Louis will not allow it.

This is the only authority which was left to him.

And then in order to serve foreign designs.

But God has always helped me and will help this time.

Jeanne, I'm a peer of France.

Your husband is the second person in the state.

In front of you is a bright future.

I'll let you know when the time comes. Have some patience.

The worst is behind us.

You'll be on the throne, my daughter. I swear it.

Naples

Fine, fine.

Pass the portrait to the Messer de Bouville.

Be careful with it.

So, Messer, your order has been carried out.

- Almost. - Almost, madam?

The question of marriage is almost settled,

because we with my son give our consent.

But Messer, under one condition.

We give our final answer only after

your king gets rid of the bonds of marriage.

We will soon achieve the divorce, madam.

Messer, we are among friends.

Do not persuade me in what has not yet committed.

On the way back, I will stay in Avignon,

and we soon receive the Pope, which we have lacked.

Great!

We want everything is settled for the summer.

There is no shortage in the applicants on Clementia's hand:

Many princes wish to marry her.

We can not afford a long delay.

Cardinal Dyuez - our candidate in Avignon.

I wish with my whole heart that he will be supported by the King of France.

He owes a lot to us.

If he becomes the Pope, you will quickly get a divorce.

To all is God's will.

By the summer, Messer.

- Remember the summer. - By the summer.

Messer, I rely on you.

Tell me honestly what do you think about this portrait?

The artist made your features fairly Donna Clementia.

Moreover, he was able to reflect your soul.

How do you think the King of France would like it?

Of course, he'll like, ma'am. And he'll like you.

France did not know the Queen so beautiful.

The Cardinal likes to bring fog.

It would be much easier to meet him in Avignon.

So you, Messire de Bouville, were sent by the King of France,

who honored me with their trust?

And at the same time you were sent by the Queen of Naples,

who does not love me, but looks like she has changed her mind.

King Louis and Queen Neapolitan hope

The Pope will be chosen soon.

Hence, it is an urgent need.

What services are expected from the chosen one?

To dissolve the marriage of the king as soon as possible.

Dissolve the marriage?

It's not as difficult as to return the votes, which deprived me of the hateful Marigny.

Your Eminence, what occurs in the conclave?

Italians against the French, French - against the Italians.

Everything is equally divided between them.

I had six votes: six French and three Italians.

- It means nine. - But it must be sixteen! We miss seven votes.

Please note that French voters against me,

also not so numerous, to elect a Marigny's protege.

- So, it all depends on Marigny? - Today - yes.

How much gold you can give me?

However, Your Eminence ...

Gold will help to attract new supporters. It is also useful to keep the old ones.

For the time, Messer de Bouville.

It turns out, Messire, you managed to buy the only candidate three times more expensive

who was already on our side?

Am I able to deceive you, my precious nephew?

Needless to say, that Mrs. Clementia is even more beautiful in life,

than in the portrait.

So, we are betrothed! I only need to get a divorce.

By the summer!

Queen Mary demands persistently that the case was settled by the summer.

This is her condition. She does not want to tie her granddaughter by long vows.

By the summer? And what is the position in the conclave?

Why not elect the Cardinal Dyueza?

Queen Mary supports him.

We do not have the votes of seven French which depend on Marigny.

Marigny! Again him!

Yes, dear brother, he is again!

Your faithful and devoted servant, such as the results of the investigation show.

Sign this document.

You will do a fair thing.

You say only Marigny can finish the case?

That is my opinion, sir.

Wait, nephew! This person tricks you like he deceived your father!

I told you, Uncle, that I want a Pope!

King again trusts you the treasury!

He trusts me the wind.

I have no illusions: now he needs a Pope.

He gets it, and Valois will make so that I would become nothing.

What is it?

I want to die!

And you will be left alone! One!

We can never get out of here!

All because of you!

You do not want to write a letter Robert asked for!

You are to blame in everything!

I'll kill myself, and you remain alone.

Well, die! Die!

We are both crazy. It's necessary to write this letter.

My strength is also not enought.

Go ahead, we must renounce. Otherwise we do not get out of here.

I will write a letter.

Guards! Guards! Call the chaplain!

Messer Bersyume this letter must go to His Highness d'Artois as soon as possible.

"I acknowledge and declare that my daughter Jeanne was born not from you.

I acknowledge and declare that I refused you in the intimacy ... "

You acted like a faithful servant of his master, Bersyume.

Assure Mrs. Margarita, that her letter will reach the recipient.

Watch for her health that she is warm and not hungry.

I do not have the funds.

We are underpaid 15 livres and of 10 sous of the salary.

Maillard!

Arrange to give Messer Bersyume 30 livres.

I will personally convey this message to His Highness d'Artois.

I'm sorry, Margarita, but you receive freedom only after the election of the Pope.

The king should need me further more.

Messer Guccio!

So I thought it was you.

- Where are your sons? - On the hunt, as every day.

Yesterday, they managed to kill a cat. We also suffer from hunger, as well as our farmers.

- A mademoiselle Marie? - Alas ...

Enter.

Messer Guccio!

Marie! The beautiful Marie! What hurts you?

- Fear that you have left me. - No!

I had to go to Italy by royal order.

We went in a hurry, and I could not warn you.

Do not be afraid! I find a way to bring you up.

- Messire Portfri! - A, Messer Baglioni!

I obey the orders from Paris.

Marigny is afraid of a riot, and wants to keep capital in strong hands.

Every magistrat of the kingdom is ordered to send him two carts of supplies each week.

As always, Paris is saved, but the village suffers.

But you, Messer, do not look like a sufferer.

You even took on some weight since our last meeting.

To support the order in the kingdom,

we should feed properly those on whom it depends.

Of course, I understand. And Marigny knows it?

Honey! Yes, you're just a magician!

I'll do anything to return your forces.

I'm afraid to die, and not know how to deal with the casket,

that you have hidden in the chapel.

I'll take the casket with me.

But if you love me, do not think about death anymore.

Do not you think that Gucci's in love with Marie? Otherwise, why would he care about us so much?

No, he's only flattered by our friendship.

- However, my sister is not a bad batch. - You bet! Not at all!

No way!

I will not let my sister marry to the Lombard vendor!

I'll see.

Marigny and Louis are now unseparated! I have lost the trust of the king!

Pardoning this viper upsets me no less than you.

Without the King's favour I will not not see my ancestral land.

I will send him to the gallows! I will be not myself if he is not hung up!

It is regrettable that Marigny has spoiled your mood.

So do not let him spoil you appetite.

Is it true that people are starving?

Perfect truth, Your Highness.

Frost and famine mow the French and lead to despair the survivors.

After examining in detail the way to the cemetery, each person only thinks about when his turn will come.

It can set people against de Marigny.

No. The people blame the Templars for the famine.

- But they are all killed! - Yes, that's the case.

They say that onto everyone who stood by the fire, fell the curse of the Grand Master.

Go ahead, Uncle!

Drink.

Think of the benefits that the situation can bring you.

Paris is dying of hunger! Marigny's people are robbing people in the hungry time.

That's enough. Hunger will go away, but Marigny will be held.

You know, like me, that the Knights Templar and the curse of the Grand Master are to blame for the famine.

- I suspect the Marigny ... - Enough!

You promised me not to file complaints on Marigny, and here it comes back!

You mock my will?

I'm looking for the means, my nephew, to keep my anger, seeing such deceit!

Do you think he wants to find you the Pope and the wife?

No! No! He is playing for time! He ...

Enough! You talk randomly, only to blame him.

The midnight will not pass, as I bring you the evidence that will destroy Marigny.

Hurry up, uncle. Otherwise you have to give me the word

not appear at court and in my Council.

Have the mercy, lords! Give us money for food!

My friend banker, I need that paper that

as you say, compromises the Marigny's brother.

His Highness de Valois requires it immediately.

"Needs"! "Immediately!"What a quick you!

Dearest Rober, you ask me to give you a document

that had once saved the lives of me and my friends.

And then I gave thoughts about it.

The traditions of St. Louis, which you're going to re-establish,

are undoubtedly useful for the state.

However, I would like it very much if in respect of Lombards

an exception was made.

In those days, we were deprived of all property and forced to leave Paris.

My friends are concerned,

and I would like to relieve their anxiety.

What do these fantasies! His Highness assured you of his support and protection.

Yes, but if he could pass the petition to the King

to somehow legitimize our privileges ...

And if the King would sign it ...

I would have immediately given you the clues

able to bring Marigny to the fire today!

Believe me!

Your priveledges will be signed tomorrow.

His Highness is unable to wait one day?

No.

So, he lost the favours of the king.

It's bad for him, and not less bad for us.

Enough tricks Tolomei! Give me the paper!

We are not going to expose the Archbishop we only need to frighten him.

You want one brother has helped you to ruin another?

- Yes. - Good idea.

Do you recognise this receipt signed by the Lombard banker?

It proves that you've stolen the part of the Templars estate from the Treasury.

- It's a fake! - Of course.

Let's start the process in fronr of the King to expose a fraud as soon as possible.

The church will have nothing to gain from this process.

But you can lose everything, Your Eminence.

- What do you suggest? - Step back from your brother, his party is lost.

Open to the King, everything you know of his intrigues in the conclave.

After all, he takes time with the election, is not he?

You have awakened my conscience.

I am ready to cover my guilt as you suggest me.

But first I would like to take this document into my hands.

Take it. It is enough that me and His lordship d'Artois saw him:

our witness means a lot in the face of the king.

You will follow us immediately to the king.

I have never seen that man cringe with such dignity.

Even in winter, I advised you to get rid of Marigny.

Now his own brother proved his treachery!

He abused my trust.

Marigny prolonged the election of Pope - Now he will have to accelerate it,

or he will pay a lot to me! It's necessary to get him to obey!

Now is the mid-April, and the Hungarian Queen said: "By the summer."

In 1,5 months you will not receive the Pope.

I cheated by Marigny, and you triumphe? What use is it to me?

Mary of Hungary, said: "By the summer" - therefore, we do not have time to choose the Pope?

Just think � I'm a double widower, having lost two exemplary wives.

What a pity, really, that you can not get rid of your shameless wife.

You are right!

If only she was dead!

Yes, if she died ...

Winter was freezing, and the prison climate is bad for the health of a women.

We have not received any word from Marigny on the Margarita's condition.

Perhaps, he admits that she is on the verge of death?

It's necessary to verify this.

You promised to give me Marigny on a day of the nomination of the Pope.

You will receive him on a day when I will become a widower.

Get up, Blanche! Do not deliver him a pleasure to see you on the earth!

Blanche! Do you hear?

Rober! Finally you're here!

Well, cousin?

They say your health is weakened.

And I see it. Are you sick?

Our marriage is dissolved?

How can it be canceled if you persist not to follow the advice?

I agreed! I have agreed for everything!

- I wrote to you, Rober! - When?

A long time ago.

Weeks have passed, months. I have waited for the release!

I have not received any letter from you, cousin.

Bersyume!

Soon you will be free.

With your help, we will accelerate the progress of the justice and will bring the pardon.

Same here!

What should I say?

A letter has already made up. You have only to sign it.

"Sire, my husband, I'm feeling not well from sorrow and disease.

I beseech you to grant me pardon, since if you refuse your mercy,

My soul will soon leave my body. Blame Messire de Marigny, "and so on and so forth.

- What about my confession? - It is no longer necessary.

Your signature will replace him here.

Excellent!

Rober, you really wanted me on your previous visit?

Yes, cousin, as I have loved you.

Do not lock the doors. From now she is free.

What are you doing in these walls? At night and without any protection!

That something was wrong. You will have to be with me, Rober!

I have not move away from this place, while you are here!

As you please, aunt.

But I am hungry,

Soup of the archers does not appeal to me.

- I'm going to have a supper. - So, we'll go together.

Tell me how you got the right, which is denied to me.

Rober! Answer me! What are you doing here?

Same as you, auntie.

Visit the two unhappy, unjustly deprived of their liberty.

Because of you! You planted them into prison!

You will try hard to find any evidence to this. They exist only in your imagination.

So say my feelings. That is enough.

Yes.

- You wwere sent by the king? - He worries about the health of his wife.

Marigny fell in disfavor. The King fears that in retaliation he exceeds

Margarita's penalty.

Robert, you are a bad writer.

Everyone knows that the king wishes her death!

Then God is on his side: he carries out his wishes.

Margarita is very bad. I'm afraid she will not last until the end of the week.

And how is the health of Blanche? You saw her?

No, auntie. But I know that it's all right.

Well ... Is there a whore in this inn?

Take your paws, Rober.

She is like my daughter: accustomed to hate you.

Who is here?

No!

- It's done, Your Highness. - No traces left?

No. I broke her neck vertebrae - her face will not turn black. And cleaned her bed.

Take it.

It's so well being still alive!

Now the king and Valois can refuse me nothing.

Soon we'll be sleeping in Artois Lorme!

She was strangled!

- What will you do, madam? - Shut up.

She was murdered on the orders of the king.

To uncover the truth, then, to raise a scandal and become his first victim.

On the other hand, knowledge of the shameful secrets gives me some power.

And so I'll be able to use it!
