❤ HINTS:
Matilda
Countess of Anjou
Henry
全英拼法，听写以音频为主
But Matilda didn't give in easily. She never called herself Countess of Anjou. Instead, she always insisted on the greater magnificence of her own title, as empress and daughter of the King of the English. As such, Matilda knew what her father expected of her, but she should produce a male heir. But just a year after the wedding, the unhappy couple were living apart. Matilda might have given up on her marriage, but her father hadn't. In 1131, he imposed a reconciliation on the couple and to good effect. In the spring of 1133, Matilda gave birth to her first child, a healthy boy called Henry after his proud grandfather. A year later, she had a second son. So, Henry had his male heirs. But he was in his 60s, and it would be years before they grew up. |
