My British Empire

Chapter 93 Under the meeting

ps: The second round is still available during the day! Do not worry

Edward was quite satisfied with the attitude of the two ministers, after all, the majesty of the king had not descended on them for two years.

These two important ministers had a respectful attitude towards Edward and had a great influence, which indicated that the ministers left by Henry VIII had fully accepted Edward's pro-government, and on the surface they had obeyed Edward's leadership.

"Is there anything else? Gentlemen!" Edward frowned as he looked at the conference room that had fallen silent again, and asked in a deep voice.

The Earl of Warwick glanced at Chief Justice Earl Robert who was solemnly closing his eyes, and blinked at him.

And His Excellency opened his eyes at the right time, just in time to see the Earl of Warwick's gesture to him.

Your Excellency shook his head slightly, indicating no, but the Earl of Warwick shook his head to express his refusal, and the Earl's eyes became sharper.

Looking at the Earl of Warwick who was staring at him closely, His Excellency sighed helplessly, scratched his ears, and stood up.

"Your Majesty, Earl Edward has been captured by the Star Chamber Court and has been convicted! I don't know how you will deal with it, Your Majesty!"

Knowing that Edward Seymour was the uncle of His Majesty the King, the justice still bit the bullet and reported to Edward.

Hearing what His Excellency said, Edward couldn't help but shoot him with his eyes.

Seeing His Majesty's sharp eyes sweeping towards him, the judge couldn't help shrinking his neck, then reacted instantly, puffed out his chest, and looked at Edward with his eyes.

Seeing the virtue of the judge in front of him, Edward knew that this was not his idea, probably ordered by the Earl of Warwick.

Edward glanced at the Earl of Warwick who was pretending to be there, and couldn't help thinking.

"My lord, I feel that Earl Edward's crimes are light compared with his merits!"

"Although he caused frequent riots in the country and promoted the alliance between Scotland and France. But we can't deny that he captured Scotland and expanded our border to Huntingdon, maintaining our advantage and oppression over Scotland."

"And the relationship between Scotland and France has always been very close, this time it is just accelerated!"

In fact, when Duke Edward withdrew to London, Major Dio signed a closer treaty with Queen Mary of Scotland, including that France could send 2,000 troops to station in Edinburgh.

And the French army of two thousand people has become a weapon for Queen Mary to control the government. Scotland is gradually in the hands of this French woman, and the Scottish regent, the Earl of Allen, has almost become a display.

"So, I think Earl Seymour can be released now, after all, his duke and ruler have been deposed!"

"You say yes! My dear judge, do you have any questions from the ministers?"

"Yes, yes, you are right, Earl Seymour can indeed be released!"

Regarding Edward's pressing question, Judge Robert wiped the sweat from his forehead, feeling a little overwhelmed, so he had no choice but to agree.

"No no!"

"You're right!"

…………

Facing Edward's rhetorical question, all the ministers shook their heads and agreed unanimously.

The next discussion is Edward's own deployment, but this cannot be proposed by Edward himself, so this important task is handed over to the Minister of Royal Affairs, John Robert.

"Ministers and Your Majesty the King, some time ago a group of pirates entered London. They persecuted the nobles with impunity. Fortunately, God bless, Your Majesty is safe and sound."

"And recently there have been riots in Cumbria and Lancashire near London."

"These common people are ignorant and ignorant. Even the royal guards are extremely brave, but a tiger can't hold back a pack of wolves. So for the sake of all the people of England, and to protect the faith of our Lord."

"I propose that in order to better protect our king, the royal guard should be expanded from 500 to 3,000, so as to protect our Lord of England—the great His Majesty Edward!"

Sir John didn't say anything, and when he spoke, he was eloquent, and a long paragraph of words came out of his mouth like a machine gun, which made Edward admire him.

After finishing speaking, Sir John licked his lips, and his mouth moved, as if he was thirsty.

After Sir John's long speech, the ministers off the court became silent again, caring for each other.

Seeing this, Sir Thomas More, the Speaker of the House of Commons, who was sickly, gestured to the Speaker of the House of Lords, Baron Brad Adam, with his eyes.

The baron glanced at Mr. Jazz, and then he seemed to have not seen him, and went to have a pleasant chat with the minister beside him.

Shaking his head alone, Sir Moore could only stand up by himself, sighing inwardly.

As the Speaker of the House of Commons, he could not ignore the position of the House of Commons, so he could only bite the bullet and offend His Majesty the King and Sir John.

"Ahem! I have some objections to Sir John's proposal. After all, these pirates and riots do not happen often. Besides, His Majesty the King is still safe at present, so there is no need to increase the guards!"

Since the establishment of Parliament, members of Parliament have unanimously resisted that the king has too many troops. They believe that a king with an army must be dictatorial.

Sir More did not expect that the Speaker of the House of Lords, Baron Adam, ignored his duties and allowed the king to expand his army.

And he can't, if he can't resist, the members of the House of Commons will definitely criticize him.

"I don't agree with Sir Moore's words. His Majesty the King's safety cannot be missed. Are you responsible for something?"

Earl Boswell suddenly came to check his presence at this time, it seems that he wanted to show his loyalty to Edward!

In the face of Earl Boswell's rebuttal, Sir Moore didn't say anything more, as long as he had an appropriate meaning, it would not be worth the loss if he broke his skin.

Moreover, today's parliament can no longer restrict the king's rights, and there is no way to stop it.

"My lord, the Earl, do you have any comments?" Edward turned his head and asked Bishop Thomas and the Earl of Warwick.

"Nothing!" "Very good!" Both of them smiled and agreed.

"Okay! Everyone, does anyone have any objections to Sir John's proposal?"

Edward then turned his head and asked the ministers present.

……………………

What responded to Edward was a quiet breath.

"Okay! Then I agree with Sir John's proposal in public!"

"Sir John, come to Whitehall Palace later, let's discuss about expanding the guards!"

After Edward announced that the proposal was confirmed, he said to Sir John, Minister of Royal Affairs.

"If there is nothing else, let's end the meeting!"

Edward spread his hands, stood up, and said to the ministers with serious faces.

"May God bless you, Your Majesty!"
