Seeing Angela, who was still as beautiful as a flower standing in front, and her son Caesar who was bouncing beside her, Marin's heart suddenly warmed.

It's been 11 years since he came to this world, and Marin has always been a little estranged from this world. Sometimes, he led his troops to fight and participated in the princes' struggle for hegemony, although it was very cool to win. However, Marin always felt like he was playing a game rather than real life.

It was only when he returned to Aurich, to his wife and children, that Marin felt like a living person in this world, not a gamer. This kind of feeling cannot be given by old Hoffman and Lady Mary, as well as brothers such as Adler. Perhaps, in Marin's eyes, they are half NPCs......

Marin happily jumped off his horse and walked towards Angela. And the little Caesar next to Angela shook off Angela's hand with some restlessness, and jumped up in front of Marin, stretched out his pink little hand, and said:

"Baba, hug!" Well, it's German, but it's basically that context......

Marin immediately picked up little Caesar with a happy face, continued to move forward, came to Angela, and said softly:

"I'm back!"

At this time, old Hoffman's face was a little unbearable. He had a good face, thinking that Marin would come and hug him first. As a result, Marin went to his wife first......

So, he coughed twice in dissatisfaction......

Seeing Old Hoffman's childlike temperament, Marin smiled, and after handing Caesar to Angela, he came to Old Hoffman, opened his arms, and hugged the old man, which satisfied the old man's vanity.

Then old Hoffman shook up, and his head was held high, as if to say, "Look, this is my son, very promising!"

At this time, Prime Minister Geoffrey saw Marin and his relatives after greeting, and immediately raised his arms and shouted:

"Congratulations to the victorious return of the Grand Duke and his army, long live the Grand Duke! Banzai! ”

Seeing that the bosses of the officials took the lead, the officials who came to greet Marin naturally also raised their arms and shouted:

"Long live the Grand Duke! Long live the Grand Duke! ”

The family members of the officers and civilians around him also chanted "Long live", and Marin had to remount his horse and wave to both sides. However, out of an abundance of caution, he did not take off his plate armor, lest someone take advantage of the chaos to assassinate him.

Amid the cheers of the crowd, Marin entered the city with a large number of officers. Most of the army began to camp outside the city. After all, the city of Aurich is not very large, and tens of thousands of people enter the city, which is too crowded. So, Marin only brought the officers into the city. As for the large army outside the city, it was temporarily under the jurisdiction of the adjutants left behind by the officers, and they were encamped outside the city.

In the evening, a grand triumphal dinner was held at the royal palace. Jeffrey personally went into battle as the host, and during the banquet, the old prime minister tried his best to make Marin feel comfortable. Although he knew that this old man was slapping on the back, Marin was still very comfortable.

In fact, Marin knew what the old boy was thinking—he was thinking about being the prime minister of the Grand Duchy......

Since the declaration of territorial integration at Worms, the Earl of Oldenburg and the Duchy of Schleswig have ceased to exist. Then, the positions of Haider and Mikel as prime ministers will be abolished.

However, Mikel and Heider are not ordinary people! Not to mention Haider, he was the first medieval college student to take refuge in Marin, who was well educated and now has some work experience.

And Mikel is even more difficult - he has been the Danish prime minister for more than ten years......

If it is to choose a new prime minister, Mikel and Haider will be very competitive. So, Jeffrey felt a lot of pressure - there was only one Prime Minister of the Grand Duchy, and he had to work hard...... Well, take a good slap in the air......

In fact, Marin had already planned it......

Originally, Marin intended to appoint the most experienced Mikel as Prime Minister of the Grand Duchy. After all, everyone has managed a Kalmar League, and a grand duchy is not trivial?

However, later, Marin considered that there were many Danes in Jutland who had been newly incorporated into the territory, and that they needed to be appeased by powerful people. Moreover, the territory of the newly acquired Archbishopric of Bremen also needs to be pacified and stabilized.

So, Marin decided to appoint both Jeffrey and Mikel as ministers (not prime ministers) at the same time.

To this end, Marin set up two administrative palaces - the West Palace and the East Palace. The West Palace is the royal palace of Aurich, which is the Western Administrative Palace, and the palace is Jeffrey. The East Palace is the Eastern Administrative Palace, and the palace is located in the former royal palace of the city of Schleswig, and the palace is Mikel.

At the administrative level, Jeffrey and Mikel are at the same level, both are palace ministers, but they are in different areas. Jeffrey's West Palace, which is mainly responsible for East Friesland and the newly bought West Friesland. Jeffrey himself was a Frisian, so it was naturally better to manage the Frisians.

Mikel, on the other hand, was in charge of the Duchy of Schleswig and the newly acquired northern part of Jutland. Mikel is a Dane, and he is naturally more comfortable in managing these Danish places.

Marin divided the area under his rule into provinces. Among them, the Metropolitan State of East Friesland was changed to the province of East Friesland, with the capital of Emden, and Aurich as the capital, which was listed separately as the capital area; West Friesland becomes West Friesland Province, with its capital at Groningen; The Earl of Oldenburg was changed to the province of Oldenburg, with the capital city of Oldenburg; The former Archbishopric of Bremen was changed to the province of Bremen, with the capital of Bremerfud; The Duchy of Schleswig was changed to the province of Schleswig, with the capital city of Schleswig; The area of Jutland to the north of the Duchy of Schleswig was temporarily changed to Jutland and was to be divided into two provinces in the future. As for the capital of Jutland, it is tentatively Aalborg; The county of Dietmarshen, formerly part of the Duchy of Holstein, was temporarily nominally assigned to the province of Schleswig, but still had autonomy; In addition, the former Bishopric of Münster, Marin intends to divide it into two parts, the north and the south, divided into the province of South Münster, the capital of Münster, and the province of North Münster, the capital of Kloppenburg; The former Episcopal State of Osnabrück was changed to the province of Osnabrück, with the capital city of Osnabrück......

With the exception of Geoffrey in charge of East and West Friesland, and Mikel in charge of Schleswig and Jutland, the rest of the province of Oldenburg was naturally handed over to Heider to continue to administer. Heidel's status was changed to Governor of the province of Oldenburg. At the same time, the newly acquired province of Bremen is also under the management of Haider. Previously, Heidel had managed well in Oldenburg and was on the right track. As a result, Haider can devote more time to the newly incorporated province of Bremen.

The two provinces of Münster, the southern part of which could not be managed for the time being, could not be taken over until the death of Bishop Conrad. Who will manage the province of North Münster, Marin has not yet thought about it. Similarly, who will run the province of Osnabrück, Marin has not figured out. After all, Marin's administrative talent is very scarce......

"Or ...... Send Machiavelli to try it? Suddenly, Marin remembered Machiavelli, who was working as his administrative secretary. This guy is a political and diplomatic talent in his own right, so he doesn't need to waste it......
