The Rise of the European Emperor

Chapter 1227 Planning to abolish the Magna Carta

"I wipe, this guy wants to dig my corner?" Malin was shocked.

Moreover, Edward's handwriting is very large, and he actually wants to poach the two major legions under his command all at once, and wants to pack it away as a whole... This... This appetite is a bit too big...

"Hmph, it seems I'm being too polite to you..." Malin thought gloomily.

Fortunately, he had already secretly sent someone to inform Saqqara and Shivag. Otherwise, if the two mistakenly think that something happened to Marin, they may really be shaken.

After all, if something happened to Marin, it would be difficult for the North Sea Kingdom to have influence on the British Isles within a few years. Because, before Caesar came of age, Beihai Kingdom's first task was to protect itself.

In this case the Fourth and Fifth Legions were half abandoned in England and Scotland. Had it not been known that Marin was still alive, Edward might actually have succeeded in poaching people.

Once Edward succeeded in poaching people, Marin's hard-earned foundations in England and Scotland would be eaten by Edward in an instant, including the powerful Fourth Army and Fifth Army with a total of 20,000 troops.

In addition, Marin also heard from the eyeliner installed in the London palace that Edward actually had the idea of ​​regretting his marriage...

regret what marriage? Of course it was Princess Margaret's engagement with Caesar...

Edward didn't know that he was no longer fertile, and thought that if he worked hard, he might be able to give birth to a prince. Therefore, Edward plans to use his daughter Princess Margaret to marry a powerful monarch to deal with France together.

Moreover, the spy of the North Sea Chamber of Commerce inquired that Edward's new marriage partner was actually Charles, the grandson of Maximilian I...

Why choose Charlie? Because Edward had great ideas for France. After all, Britain and France have been feuding for centuries. The reason why Edward wanted to annex the Fourth and Fifth Legions also had plans to attack France.

And right now, the Habsburg army is at odds with the French-backed Switzerland. Therefore, Edward believed that the Habsburgs were a very suitable ally to beat France together. And marrying her daughter to Charlie is the best way to deepen the relationship between the two countries.

Of course, Edward only has this intention at the moment. Because he has no son left. If a son is born, Princess Margaret will be sold by him as a marriage chip without hesitation. But he didn't know, he didn't have this chance...

Moreover, this idea of ​​his angered Marin - Mudnum, dare to revoke my son's marriage? Do you want to die like that? It seems that I have to find a way to kill you early, so as to avoid disaster...

"Hey...wait, dead father, being divorced...this seems to be another pattern for the protagonist's template...Do you want to let Caesar really get divorced...maybe it can speed up growth..."

Marin finally shook his head, rejecting the bizarre idea. Because if the marriage is really broken off, then the idea of ​​uniting England will go bankrupt. It is not impossible to conquer England violently, but in the future, he will face the dilemma of fighting on two fronts. After all, without legal support, rashly annexing England will surely resist endlessly in the future. I have to fight in Germany again, England is a big rear, and it can't be messed up.

Also, Edward was just an idea. Besides, he has been kicked as a badass, and he can't have a son if he wants to. That thought, after all, is just an idea.

Marin suddenly remembered that there seemed to be some kind of "Magna Carta" in England, which was very restrictive to the monarch. In particular, the one that "recognizes the freedom of self-made cities" is what Marin is most disgusted with. These self-made cities are completely like a country within a country, not under the official jurisdiction of the king. In Marin's view, this is really a split. As a traveler with the soul of China, the idea of ​​unification has deeply penetrated into the soul. He would rather slaughter all the citizens of the municipality than tolerate urban autonomy. In fact, the later independence of North America was deeply influenced by this idea of ​​autonomy. He didn't want to be tied up when his son ruled England in the future. So he started planning to repeal the Magna Carta.

Exactly, because after Edward's slaughter, the nobles in England who can currently oppose the king are at their weakest. If it is proposed to abolish the Magna Carta at this time, the resistance will be the least.

Besides, Edward had enough blood on his back. The so-called "it's not ticklish when there are too many lice", Marin planned to encourage Edward to repeal the Magna Carta after this incident. After all, the appearance of the Magna Carta was a disgrace to the king. And if he is willing to fully support him, he has no reason not to do it. When Edward has done all these offending things, Marin can think of a way to give him a "complete rest"...

...

Thinking of this, Marin called Kohler and ordered:

"You go and arrange spies and secretly spread the news in England, saying that the king wants to abolish the Magna Carta."

After thinking about it, Marin added:

"After spreading this fake news, you will arrange for someone to inform the remnants of the Tudor dynasty in France."

Kohler was a little stunned when he heard it:

"Master, what do you mean..."

"I said don't call me master, I'm 33! Have you ever seen a 33-year-old master?"

"Okay, sir! So, what's the name of the lord over there? Old lady?"

After hearing this, Marin felt a little weird, but also felt good. So he nodded:

"Well, that's a good name!" Old Hoffman didn't care about anything anyway, he was mainly idle at home, which fit the character of "Old Master"...

"Then what do you mean by telling me to inform the remnants of the Tudor dynasty?"

"You have also read the information. Edward has been dishonest recently and wants to annex my army. Therefore, let's find something for him, which will give him a headache. To inform the remnants of the Tudor Dynasty, of course, I hope they will contribute and give him more help. Fire makes Edward even more headaches."

However, Malin changed the subject and said:

"However, I do hope that Edward really abolishes the Magna Carta. In this way, when Caesar unites England, he will not be tied. So, you send someone to inform Saqqara and Siwager, and let them recruit Edward. Ambiguous, but all clearly support the repeal of Magna Carta and say it is a disgrace to the king!"

After thinking about it for a while, Kohler finally reacted:

"Young Master...Abu, Master, what you mean is, use the public opinion to stir up this topic first, and then let the two legion commanders deliberately express their support for the abolition of the Magna Carta. In this way, His Majesty Edward will be tempted. Will it really abolish the Magna Carta?"

Marlin nodded:

"This is only the first step. When I show up in a few months, I will make another statement in person, and I am willing to send troops to support him in repealing the Magna Carta. In this way, I am not afraid that he will not be tempted."

Kohler thought about it, it really is. If Marin fully supports it, Edward has enough confidence to abolish Magna Carta. And, for a king, Magna Carta is really not a good thing. At the beginning, the reason why John I accepted the Magna Carta was because the British had just paid a ransom of 150,000 marks of silver to Henry VI, the emperor of Shinra, because Richard I had just been captured. All of this money was collected from all over the UK, which drained the UK's finances and made the UK angry. Richard I even went to France to loot in order to collect the ransom, and died in the looting process. After John I ascended the throne, the royal family owed a lot of debt and had no ability to fight against the nobles, so they had to sign a humiliating treaty. But John I tore up the Magna Carta when he stood his ground.

But after Henry III ascended the throne, because Henry III was the young master who succeeded the throne at the age of 9, he was united and bullied by the nobles, and then the Magna Carta was restored.

In short, the Magna Carta is the product of the king's submission to the nobility, and certainly no king is willing to accept it. In particular, the Magna Carta made the judiciary independent and deprived the king of the right to pronounce sentences. Although this is very progressive in the eyes of later generations, in the 16th century, England was unique and a disgrace to the king. Because, in this way, even if the king hates someone to death, if there is no judgment from the court controlled by the nobles, the king can't do anything about the enemy, so it is not easy to put him in prison. Such a king is indeed worthless.

Today, because of the civil war, the aristocracy has been bloodbathed and its strength has fallen to a low point. If Malin had sent troops to help, Edward would definitely be able to successfully tear up the Magna Carta. Therefore, Marin does not worry that Edward will not take the bait.

Of course, what Marin cared about was not the right to judicial decisions. He only cared about the autonomy of those autonomous cities, which was the ideological source of the split in the colonies. Therefore, Marin would rather not have the right to judicial judgment and completely obliterate the right to local self-government. It must be passed, he will run a colonial empire in the future, and this idea of ​​autonomy is the most taboo. If all the people in the colonies want to govern themselves, then the colonial empire will still be in trouble... Therefore, the Magna Carta must be abolished...
