My British Empire

ps: At the end of the month, ask for tickets, ask for subscription

A barbecue dinner lasted for nearly an hour, and after the guards had worked so hard to wipe out the prey, all the people returned happily.

Before leaving, our king and the illegitimate son of Henry VIII, two horses in front, chatted softly.

"Mr. Sir, the pleasant time has passed, I wonder if you have any thoughts on what to do next?"

Edward sat upright on the horseback, looked at the birds flying in the sky, opened his lips slightly, and asked.

"What? What do you mean?"

John Perrault's handsome face was filled with surprise and disbelief, and his eye sockets were slightly opened.

"That's right, my sir, your talent should not be wasted in this place where no one cares about it. This is a great waste!"

Edward nodded and admitted clearly.

"Although England seems to be peaceful and quiet at present, King Henry II of France is ambitious, and King Charles V of Spain is old and strong. Like a prostrate lion, the dangerous atmosphere is hard to hide!"

"Only by working hard and catching up, can England surpass Spain and France and become the master of Europa!"

"Even, take back our Normandy, take back our France!"

Edward took a deep breath before speaking loudly with his chest.

"Of course, the most important thing is my French throne!" Finally, I added silently in my heart.

Such ambitious, heroic, and passionate words shocked the illegitimate child on horseback beyond his control, or in other words, shocked his heart.

His Majesty the King performed so hard, so why didn't John cooperate? A subordinate who can't cooperate with the leader in acting is not a good subordinate.

"Your Majesty, please rest assured, I believe that under your leadership, England will definitely dominate Europe!"

I saw that John lowered his head slightly, with a dignified breath floating on his face, saluted Edward and complimented him loudly.

"Yes, I believe it too!" Hearing this, Edward turned his head, looked into his blue eyes, and replied affirmatively.

A trace of astonishment flashed across John's face, and then he returned to normal.

He did not expect that the young king was so confident.

"John, have you ever thought that the sky in London is actually wider and more suitable for you!"

"Yes, that's right, this is exactly what I've been dreaming about!"

As he said that, John sat on the horse and performed a simple knight salute, which can also be called a noble salute.

Under the bright sunshine, a happy smile appeared on the young king's face.

And John Perot, who bowed his head, also raised the corners of his mouth, and his smile was so happy.

This day is the first meeting between the two half-brothers, and it is also the most important moment in their fate.

After that, Edward returned to London with two pretty maids in a carriage and hundreds of guards.

As for John Perot, he needed to prepare before coming to London to obtain his future.

At this time, the Alexander knight who went to suppress the Catholic rebellion in the southwestern part of England finally returned. Immediately afterwards, the Marquess of William hurried back to London.

On the second day after Edward came back, the two came together and asked to see each other.

In this regard, Edward wore formal clothes and welcomed them in the hall. Afterwards, he changed into regular clothes and met them in the study.

"Your Majesty—" the two waited quietly in the study, and when they saw the king coming in, they immediately bowed and bowed.

After Edward took his seat, the two got up and faced the young king.

"Knight Alexander, for those Catholics, your method of suppression needs to be changed, it is still too soft!"

First of all, Edward's gaze was set on the handsome Alexander knight. The light formal suit on his body still couldn't conceal his handsome face.

"Yes, Your Majesty! I will work hard!" Knight Alexander immediately bowed his head when he heard this.

"However, your suppression of Catholics was indeed quick and thorough. This credit cannot be erased!"

Seeing that Knight Alexander admitted his mistake, Edward changed his voice, his eyes were full of praise, and he praised.

"It's all thanks to God's blessing!" Alexander didn't feel happy at all when he received the praise, but instead said clichés sternly.

Edward still appreciates Knight Alexander's unfazed appearance. He works seriously and doesn't complain. He is a typical subordinate!

However, the other was not so qualified.

"My dear Marquis, you have done a good job. You have dealt with those mobs cleanly. There shouldn't be much left now!"

After Edward praised Knight Alexander, he immediately turned his attention to Marquis William who was a little timid.

"Yes, Your Majesty!" Marquess William thought for a while, and then replied without hesitation: "There is not a single Kate's accomplice in the entire East England!"

"That's very good, my lord the Marquis!" Edward just nodded slightly, but his face remained as serious as ever.

"However, this can't change your previous rash behavior!"

"Because of you, I think the militia in the whole of England has been exhausted! In a few years, not many people in the East of England will take the initiative to join the militia!"

Having said this, Edward was out of breath, and his tone became more and more severe.

Although it is impossible for Scotland to have any war with England in recent years, Scotland's religious reform will aggravate domestic conflicts and break out of war at any time.

At this time, enough troops are needed to intervene, but the militia in East England has been abolished, and the militia in North England has been mobilized wantonly in recent years, and the source of troops has long been exhausted. In addition, southwest England, that is to say, the eight major regions of England , Nearly half of the civilians have been unable to dispatch troops.

In other words, the labor force under our King's Majesty is not enough, and we need to spend money to hire German and Italian mercenaries.

The thought of spending money gave the young king a headache.

"His Majesty--"

Hearing these words, Marquis William's body could not help but tremble slightly, and his head sank further and further.

Seeing a marquis trembling in front of him, Edward couldn't help feeling a little excited, and this feeling was extremely refreshing.

Just like that, Edward pursed his lips and stared at Marquis William silently. The air was silent for a few seconds before Edward continued: "However, if you were able to suppress the mob in time and catch Brother Kate It's done!"

"With all the merits, I will forcefully peel off this page!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Marquis William said respectfully, wiping the cold sweat from his forehead.

"Unexpectedly, the young king is becoming more and more powerful!"

Marquis William thought silently.

"Actually, Your Majesty, I was able to wipe out the mob led by Kate in one fell swoop. Thanks to the help of a talented person, I was able to complete your commission!"

"I'm here today, and I also want to recommend this civil talent for you!"

Raising his head, Marquis William considered his situation for a while, and finally remembered his promise. He collected himself and said softly.

"Oh? Really?" Edward heard the words, pretending to be surprised.

In fact, he had already guessed that there was someone behind Marquis William.

"I don't know, what's his name?"

"Thomas Mann, his name is Thomas Mann!"
