Looking at Edward's already determined face, the young guard could only protect Edward's departure.

It seemed that the action of leaving was a little bigger, and the beautiful little girl who was playing on the side raised her head and watched Edward and his party in expensive clothes slowly leave, with a trace of doubt in her dark blue eyes.

"Miss, it seems to be our Majesty the King!" An older girl on the side followed her young lady's gaze and then whispered.

"Oh! Is it? Let's go too! The little girl's pretty eyes rolled and she smiled cutely.

Then he hugged the puppy, and in the company of several maids, he also slowly left.

The reason why Edward didn't go up to say hello was mainly because at the moment when he was about to go, he suddenly remembered that something was wrong.

In this period of the Baron's Palace, how did Miss Baroness go to play, and it happened to be on the way he walked, there was indeed a sense of conspiracy.

Don't overestimate the temperament of the nobles, especially the current aristocracy, what's wrong with a daughter being a mistress to the king? At the very least, it can bring great benefits to the family.

When some people think of England, they think of gentlemanly manners, but in fact, in Europe and England at present, shamelessness and shamelessness are necessary conditions for mixing well.

The gentleman was still a class at this time, a collective term that included nobles, knights, jomannon, and local squires, and it was not until the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries that the gentleman really became a culture in order to better reflect the status of the boss of England.

For example, courtesy, humility, not showing off wealth, not pretending, neat clothes, etc., that is, gentlemanly demeanor.

Edward suspected that this was a conspiracy set up by the baron, so he watched for a moment and left.

What's more, his physical equipment is not fully mature at the moment, let's talk about it in a few years! Besides, you can see each other often!

"Your Excellency! I'm very happy with your arrangement! Edward kept smiling, his eyes gentle, and said to the sturdy baron in front of him.

"It's a pleasure for our whole family to serve you!" Lord Baron said flatteredly, with a hint of excitement in his eyes.

"Very well, for an aristocratic man like you, being idle at home is the greatest loss to England!"

"Therefore, I have decided to appoint you as a Privy Councillor."

Edward's expression was serious, and he looked completely for the sake of his country.

"What an unforgettable decision, my majesty!" The baron was stunned by this pie at once, and the whole person looked extremely excited.

"Well, Your Excellency, I hope you will make an outstanding contribution to England!" Edward said encouragingly.

After that, Edward went back to rest, leaving Baron Brandt, who had a good night.

The next day, Edward led the entire army on their way back.

When he arrived at Windsor Castle, Edward returned to London with a few hundred guards, as well as other Scottish nobles and guards.

A huge and ornate carriage with the insignia of red and white roses slowly stopped at Windsor Castle, and a group of housekeepers under Windsor Castle and the nearby knights stood respectfully at the door, bowing their heads to greet His Majesty the King.

"Greetings to Your Majesty—" All the stewards and knights bent down at a thirty-degree angle, their right hand on their chests, and their faces respectful.

Later, Edward came out of the carriage, and then the mature and plump Queen Mary came out with little Lori, followed by the two maids, Luna and Lucy.

As soon as Edward came out, everyone slowly straightened up, just bowing their heads slightly to show respect.

Edward bowed his head slightly, and then led the way into Windsor Castle, and then followed many knights and butlers, but Queen Mary and little Lori were led by the maid to their own room, and they drove for several days in a row, and they were indeed tired.

Edward hadn't been to Edinburgh for a long time, so first he chatted with the knights to understand the situation among the people, so that he could make timely policy adjustments.

The reform of the central government and the judicial reform have indeed brought some trouble to the local government, especially the change from the original flat judicial management model to the pyramid model, from the original equality to the current vertical management, which makes the local courts very resistant.

The judges, in particular, were basically gentlemen in the local county, and had a great deal of influence in the county, and they ignored the arrangements of London.

In such a situation, the justices of London, who have tasted the taste of power, will certainly not give in, and all the judges who resist will be dismissed, and then his nemesis will be propped up from the county to be judged, and the treatment will be divided.

This method is so effective that the new judges will of course choose to support London's decision for the sake of power, while the removed judges will oppose the new judges, thus achieving the effect of decomposing local forces.

Edward was pleased with the performance of the justices of the royal court, and the salary of a few thousand pounds a year was not for nothing.

After the knights finished speaking, they also consciously retreated, and then, Edward talked to the stewards about the land reform of the royal estate.

"Your Majesty, we don't know about other places, but after the manor we managed used Your Majesty's three-garden system and the iron plow, plus the irrigation of dung, I not only cultivated two hundred acres of land there, but also the yield per mu of rye reached twenty-five bushels (about 1,800 catties), which almost doubled!"

The butler was now surprised by the numbers, and his face was full of exclamation, and his eyes were full of admiration for Edward.

However, Edward felt a little dissatisfied, according to the calculation that one acre is equal to six acres, the yield per mu is only about three hundred catties, which is just the level of the inferior fields of the Ming Dynasty, far from meeting his expectations.

The other stewards of the manor also spoke, praising Edward as if he were really the Son of God, and their faces flushed.

Edward listened carefully, thirteen estates, a total of 8,600 acres of arable land, according to 1,800 catties per acre, that is, 15,480,000 catties, that is, almost 1,404,000 pounds, according to two pence per pound, the profit is about 10,000 pounds.

There is also precious wheat, and even then it is only 20,000 pounds a year, which is too far from doing business.

Edward sighed silently, but his face was still happy, and he said that he would reward them.

Many housekeepers hurriedly bowed and thanked them, and the expressions on their faces became even more excited.

Edward then asked how the secrecy was going, and the butlers patted their chests and said that there was no problem at all, and that the serfs did not have the courage to say it.
