During the French Wars of Religion, her son-in-law, Duke Francis of Guise, threatened to tear Montargis apart to get at the Huguenot refugees within. Renée replied:

❝She would herself mount the battlements and see if he dare kill a King’s daughter.❞

@RoiFrancoisI // Yeah, things are exclaimed differently in excitement depending on where you are.

Is that like football? I'm afraid I have no idea, this is well out of my area of expertise!

@RoiFrancoisI // I don't think I know "Ooooh weeeee" used that way in English, hmm. "Oh wow" is "oh wau", but for the rest you can easily sound fuddy duddy if you don't use regional slang.

Maybe "(Ist das ein) Wahnsinn!" for "(This is) madness!"

@RoiFrancoisI // Do you mean "Au weh!"? It means "ouch!" or, probably related, "owie!" Also related to the yiddish "oy vey!"

@RoiFrancoisI "On such short notice, hmm... Maybe things that look like pearls? Bath pearls, a pearly pony, painted chocolates, pearly little hamsters, a seashell throne or bed that turns her into the pearl?"

@RoiFrancoisI // I've never had it before, I just thought it looks delicious 😂 Definitely a feast for the eyes

@RoiFrancoisI She tapped her chin in thought.

"I would look for shoes made in the pearl-diving regions themselves. I am sure they have especially skilled craftsmen there."

@LaBonneReine How sweet~

Throwback, @ReneeofFrance

//For those who don't know . . . today was the actual death date of François' queen, Claude, at Blois in 1524.

She was just 24 and had born seven children in nine years.

She has been ignored and should not be.

I hope to bring a little attention to a special queen.

@AnnaDiFerrara Gently she brushed her daughter's hair with her fingertips.

"You are my greatest work of art. Now, how have you been?"

[ℛ𝑒𝑛𝑒́𝑒 𝑑𝑒 ℱ𝑟𝑎𝑛𝑐𝑒 ❧ (Parody) @ReneeofFrance]

@AnnaDiFerrara "Ah! Bonjour, my sweet! You look absolutely radiant."

She gave him a warm squeeze back. "Enjoy yourself. Happiness on my special day is the best gift of all."

[⚜️ Roi François Ier ⚜️ @RoiFrancoisI]

He squeezed her hand. "I am the fortunate one to have such an esteemed, perfect sister. What else can we do to make your day a memorable and lovely one?"

[ℛ𝑒𝑛𝑒́𝑒 𝑑𝑒 ℱ𝑟𝑎𝑛𝑐𝑒 ❧ (Parody) @ReneeofFrance]

"Merci, my darling. Oh, how beautiful! You have exquisite taste." She gently kissed her daughter's cheek.

[⚜️ Roi François Ier ⚜️ @RoiFrancoisI]

"Cake, white wine from Ferrera and red wine for our dear sister, Madame Renée. Come! Come one and all and enjoy!" His voice boomed over the TL as he beckoned everyone to come celebrate @ReneeofFrance

[ℛ𝑒𝑛𝑒́𝑒 𝑑𝑒 ℱ𝑟𝑎𝑛𝑐𝑒 ❧ (Parody) @ReneeofFrance]

She smiled brightly, delighted by all the thoughtful, beautiful gifts.

"Merci beaucoup! I am so spoiled to have a generous brother like you."

A jewel box to keep her new jewels and, of course, some books and a fan.

He kissed Renée's cheek. "Happiest day to you, my dearest sister. Seems like not that long ago I was buying you a pony."
