Chapter 421 I have done my service to the king and the country, and I want to see Your Majesty

Darkblade and the palace intelligence service were not covered, and in less than a month, after a lot of money temptation and undercover agents, most of the Calvinists in the United Kingdom were found out.

Now, a lot of information is being put in His Majesty's Secretariat, which looks extremely exaggerated.

A few young secretaries quickly began to count the information, summarizing the information and then forwarding it to His Majesty the King for preview.

The position of king brought Edward a variety of government affairs, and he could not be like the kings of Europe, who left all the management of the prime minister and the court ministers to be the manager.

Nor can they do it themselves like the emperors of ancient China.

You know, in the whole United Kingdom, every day the Cabinet forwards to him the bill decrees on his desk, piled up, this still excludes small things, these need his own signature, royal approval, rejection, and then these decrees transferred from the cabinet will take effect and can be conveyed.

And Edward didn't have a celebrant around him to approve him red, which made him a little unbearable.

Therefore, he personally set up a secretariat under the palace affairs department to handle some government affairs for him, and those cumbersome things are basically handled by them.

As for the original secretaries, they have become life secretaries, and they are no longer responsible for government affairs, and professional things are handed over to professional people.

Although the Secretariat is not a high official position, it has always been a place of great training.

Therefore, it is either full of noble children, or the best from the official selection examination, so to speak, are the future pillars of the kingdom.

Below, a head of a thousand households district will not be able to run, and in a few years, the county mayor will be nine out of ten, and if his ability is okay, he may enter the cabinet at the age of forty.

All this was envisioned by His Majesty the King, and this group of secretaries has only been in office for more than a year, so is it still early?

"Your Majesty, the information of the Dark Blade and the Palace Intelligence Department has been sorted out, this is a brief list!" A young man with a strong aristocratic smell respectfully walked up to Edward and handed him a piece of paper densely covered with letters.

"Yes!" Edward agreed, and began to read.

The secretary on the side also naturally left quietly without a sound.

From the list, Edward got a message that it was not good to be too liberal in thought.

Among the Protestants from Europe, Lutheranism had the least influence, numbering only a few hundred.

The most radical Calvinists, on the other hand, numbered more than 2,000 people, including local clergy, scholars, officials, and a growing middle class who were not satisfied with the Reformation.

This is still the core number, and those supernumeraries are really not counting, and they are even close to catching up with the group of Catholics.

Seeing this, the king, who has always maintained his dominance, can still endure it.

"Smack!" Edward slapped the table with his right hand and frowned, "These people are really enough, they come to riot when their stomachs are not full, and they are finally full, and they are ready to rebel and seize power when they have nothing to do!" ”

All of a sudden, Edward felt like he had an explosion, can't he live your life well? You have to toss.

He knew that if it was a history book, these people were representatives of justice, constantly fighting for the rights of the people.

However, how could he follow the situation and toss with them, this United Kingdom of his own is his own painstaking effort, and it will also be passed on to future generations, and stability is paramount.

"Someone!" "Yes, Your Majesty!" A secretary came running quickly and answered.

"Pass the order, continue the investigation, and after that, they will be arrested directly according to the list and sent to London!"

Edward had a cold face, squinted his eyes, looked in the direction of Spain, and commanded through gritted teeth.

A while ago, he laughed at the religious problem in Spain, but today, in the United Kingdom, the same problem has appeared, and this slap in the face is too fast!

The thought of hundreds of people being captured and thus changing his fate made Edward feel a sense of guilt in his heart.

Subsequently, this pleasure of deciding the life and death of others drowned out the guilt, and the right was really a good thing.

Early in the morning, the mayor of Plymouth got up and had a humble breakfast with his wife and children, which did not match his status.

In this regard, his wife, who was born in a merchant family, and his son, who was accustomed to eating delicious food, naturally chewed with resentment on their faces, and the expression on their faces was extremely ugly.

Seeing this scene, His Excellency the Mayor snorted coldly, and the two of them made bitter faces and ate it.

After eating his own portion, His Excellency the Mayor asked the maid to clean up for him, and he went to the city hall to work in the best appearance.

He glanced back at his reluctant wife and children, and sighed, he knew that if he was not there, these two would definitely steal food later, what could he do.

Diligence and thrift are the continuous guarantee of the family, and extravagance will degenerate people.

His Excellency the Mayor only figured out this truth a while ago, thanks to those priests who conveyed the true will of the Lord to him, so that he was on the right path.

However, don't you know that your wife and children still believe in hypocrisy and pray every day on weekends? Everyone is a pastor, and they can communicate with God through the Bible.

Sitting in the carriage, His Excellency the Mayor rubbed his forehead, and he had a headache about how to induce his family to convert.

Soon, His Excellency the Mayor, dressed in his formal attire, arrived at the town hall before eight o'clock.

Regarding the requirements of time, His Excellency the Mayor has really complained about the central government I don't know how many times, and the management is too lenient, when to go to work and get off work are so clear, and now, he is a little miss when the first king was alive.

What corruption, bribery! It's all commonplace, how can everything be so strict like now.

However, if he really wants to go back to the past, he really doesn't want to, how can he have the power he has now, and he can also be promoted and raised.

Thinking like this, he also responded to the staff who greeted him along the way, and the image of a friendly mayor was immediately vividly reflected.

After going up the stairs and turning a corner, he arrived at his office, and the secretary on the side looked a little wrong with his face, and after opening the door for him, he was about to ask about it, when he saw the scenery in front of him, and swallowed the words that came out of his mouth.

I saw that there were several people sitting on his desk, wearing blood-red cloaks, and what was even more strange was that their faces were covered, and only two big eyes were visible.

"I, I don't think I've ever been corrupt!" The mayor looked at these people and said with a slight stammer.

"Of course, you didn't!" The leader replied in a crisp voice.

"Take him away!" The leader gestured.

"You don't have evidence, how can you just arrest me? I'm the Mayor of Plymouth, and I've met Your Majesty in person, and His Majesty the King won't let you go!" ”

"It's really troublesome, ignore him, just arrest him!" Looking at His Excellency the Mayor, who was still hard-mouthed and resisting the arrest, the crisp voice sounded again.

"Don't, I have done my service for the king and the country, I want to see Your Majesty! I want to see Your Majesty! ”

Suddenly, the hall of the city hall resounded with the wail of killing pigs.
