What happens
Her beauty caught the eye of the queen who choose her as the king's mistress and Urszula joined the court when she was 22 years old as a chamberlain. The strict religious woman held great influence on the king and queen, but was very unpopular because of her involvement in affairs of state. Her favorites were appointed to state positions due to her influence and she was called many scornful things such as "minister in a skirt", "Jesuit's bigotry", the King's mistress and "obscene favorite". Despite many marriage offers, Urszula has never married. The Pope sent her a Golden Rose, who she corresponded with, as an award for an exceptionally virtuous life. The king is now old and often ill, something Urszula Meyerin has taken advantage of. She is the one who signs official state documents and receives foreign ambassadors, and is the ruler in all but name.
