On the whole, Edward's regulations are still somewhat binding on Scotland.

For example, the restriction on private soldiers, although the number of people is stipulated, the standard is similar to the number of people that ordinary nobles usually have, and even more than the amount that some low-level nobles have, which has expanded a lot.

However, on the surface, there is an increase in the share of private soldiers, but half of the private soldiers must be contributed to join the newly established Scottish Army, which indirectly weakens the strength of the nobles, and makes it not so uncomfortable for the nobles to accept.

This bill, in fact, is still modeled after his grandfather, His Majesty Henry VII, the monarch who single-handedly founded the Tudor dynasty, it can be said that he established the strong position of the later monarch, just as Zhao Kuangyin, the Taizu of the Song Dynasty in China, laid the situation of the Song Dynasty's strong and weak culture.

The following judicial aspect is also to learn from Henry VII.

Starting with the ten shillings, all cases were tried by the royal court, and the nobles were not allowed to refuse or obstruct them.

This meant that slightly larger civil or criminal cases were essentially stripped away from the nobility, from which the royal family wrested the most important part of the judiciary, laying the foundation for the later full-scale seizure of justice.

The requirement for the nobility to be certified by the Bureau of Heraldry is a rehash of the same old rhetoric, continuing to emphasize the strength of the crown and the king's nominal dominance over the nobility.

However, Edward's most important thing was Article 8, so the nobles had to spend half of the year in London and had to attend four sessions of the House of Lords.

This meant that the Scottish aristocracy would spend half of the year in London, an economic city that would soon become the largest city in Europe if politics were added.

And the Scottish aristocracy often stays in London, then Edinburgh's role as the political center of Scotland will gradually weaken, and there will be only one political center in the entire British Isle - London.

And the bustling and comfortable London is much better than the cold and boring north of Scotland, and it will not be long before the nobles will be resident in London because of the tiredness of running back and forth and the comfortable life of London.

And without the nobility of Scotland, coupled with the spiritual brainwashing of the Anglican sect, the chances of Scotland rebellion are slim.

Of course, Edward also learned from His Majesty the great Qin Shi Huang to unify Scotland's official language and style into English, and also abandoned its own weights and measures.

And the coinage of Scotland has been in the hands of the crown since King David I of Scotland, so Edward did not explicitly list it in the treaty.

All he had to do was get the mint to change directly to the sterling model in the name of the King of Scotland.

In other words, in this operation, our Majesty the King, although he still delegated executive power to the Scottish nobility, still gained a large number of rights.

Take control of the Church of Scotland, obtain half of the judicial power, limit the rights of the nobility, obtain the command of the Scottish Army (not to mention the navy, which has been incorporated into the English Navy), and contain the nobility in London, and establish London's political center in Britain.

If you add last year's diplomacy, taxes, and part of the legislative power.

Suffice it to say, Scotland is now a relatively large borough, and in a few decades it will be unlikely that it will be able to break away from English rule.

And Edward cut so many benefits from the nobles, he must have to compensate.

So Scottish caravans were allowed to trade in England without customs duties, and only half of the final tax had to be paid (Scotland only).

In this way, Edward could declare that he was the most powerful king in Scotland's history.

The pleasant times were always unforgettable, and after almost a month in Scotland, Edward was finally ready to go home.

This month he was not in vain, first he confirmed the appointment of the major bishops of the Scotland diocese, then urged the Scottish nobles to prepare to go to London, and then divided the gold coins and valuable ecclesiastical property of the Church of Scotland.

Of course, as King of Scotland, Edward also used his and Mary's names to reappoint the head of the royal domain.

After harvesting the ecclesiastical property, the entire royal family has owned all the land in Scotland, squeezing out the church and becoming the largest landowner in Scotland.

And as the leader of the newly formed Scottish Left-behind Army, he also urged the nobles to draw private soldiers to form the Scottish Army.

Within a month, the Scottish Army, which numbered nearly 2,600 men, was formed, and Edward chose Viscount Smith and Major Dio, Baron Huntington from France, as commanders of the army.

So, it was a cold March with a steep spring, and when I went back, it was already early summer with a hint of heat.

But the only constant was the intermittent rain on and off the way.

Edward sat in the carriage, his blanket a little damp, not to mention the hard-pressed soldiers.

Colds, rotten feet, and vomiting and diarrhea from the soil and water were unimaginable for German mercenaries.

Of course, these were also things that Edward forgot for a while.

However, fortunately, ginger is very convenient to transport from the east, and he has already planted it on a large scale, as long as it is a long march, he will basically carry it.

So, in order to take care of the wounded, Edward stopped and stopped, let the sick drink ginger brown sugar water, and often boiled hot water to wash their feet.

In this way, the disease was brought under control, but only a few hundred people died.

However, this made Edward gain a lot of hearts, brown sugar and ginger were worth a lot of money, plus they deliberately stopped on the way, and found a place to live for them to recuperate.

Most of the mercenaries were very moved in their hearts, and when Edward offered 20 acres of land per person as the cost of hiring for ten years, more than 5,000 mercenaries left more than 4,300 people, which basically met Edward's expectations.

It took half a month, along with the families of the nobles, to return to London, the largest city in England.

This time, Edward did not return directly to London, and invited the nobles to his Hampton Court Palace to settle down.

Our Majesty the King lies in his own bedroom, with his eyes closed, listening to the beautiful girl Luna.

"Your Majesty, the Church of Scotland is indeed very rich, and you have done a good business on this expedition!"

Luna sat beside Edward, her tender hands gently massaging Edward's shoulders, and her delicate voice gently tickled Edward's heart.

"There are fifty acres of fine land alone, more than 20,000 serfs, more than 10,000 oil paintings and sculptures, and about a million pounds of gold and silver coin......s of all ages."
