Chapter 144: Make Up Your Mind
PS: Ask for a monthly pass! There is still a chapter around twelve o'clock
"You're kidding, Boris!" Dio was stunned for a moment, and then said with a smile, his tone becoming more and more solemn.
"It's not funny at all!" The eyes swept like a knife to the face of the servant who had followed him for many years, and Boris, the son of a serf, felt the gaze
Dio's eyes brought Boris great uneasiness, and cold sweat broke out on his forehead from time to time, but his eyes still looked at Dio firmly, without the slightest retreat.
In this way, after watching for nearly ten seconds, Boris felt that most of the day had passed, but with his loyalty to his master, he still persevered and did not dodge and retreat.
And when Dio withdrew his gaze, he breathed a sigh of relief, he knew that his servant Boris, the son of a serf who was a little stubborn from time to time, still had his heart directed towards him.
"Tell me, have you met those Englishmen, you can't think of this idea in your head!"
Dio turned his head, no longer looking at the smirking son of the serf, but turned his gaze to the other side, and his legs began to move.
Boris, the son of a serf, followed closely behind, touching his head and walking over.
Under the leadership of Dio, Boris followed cautiously, his eyes rolled from time to time, looking at the surrounding environment, and his hanging heart finally relaxed.
Dio took him to his study, which was small and had thick walls, where information could not be easily leaked.
Sitting in his chair, Dio locked his gaze on Boris, the son of a serf, again, "Say, what is the situation?" ”
Feeling the pressure of Dio, Boris stood with his head bowed and spoke very happily.
"A while ago, a merchant from England asked to see me with a gift, and I received him for the sake of the gift!"
Speaking of this, Boris did not have the slightest shame and said it straight.
At that time, although England and Scotland were still in a state of confrontation, they still did business as usual, and the people still exchanged as usual, after all, many Scottish nobles made a fortune by doing business with England.
"At first we had a good conversation, and at last he suddenly said to me, 'You-" Boris said with a sudden stretch of his neck, accentuated.
"If you really don't have a place to go, come to England, and the little king of England will always welcome you!"
"I was annoyed at the time, and I thought how could my master, the dignified French major, go to this vulgar place in England!"
Speaking of this, Boris glanced at Dio with an indignant expression on his face, and looking at Dio's expressionless appearance, Boris continued.
"I saw a sneer on his face when I blasted him away, and I was puzzled at the time, but now I finally understand that the English have known your situation for a long time!"
"So, when you rejected my idea, I remembered what the merchant had said, and immediately told you to go to England!"
Boris rarely said so many words at once, he couldn't believe it, and after speaking, he immediately fixed his eyes on Dio.
England and France have fought for hundreds of years, England has left a lot of eyeliner in France, and the Tudor royal family still retains the title of King of France, although few countries recognize it, but the successive English kings have invested a lot of energy and money in France, which is not in vain.
Therefore, Edward knew about Major Dio five or six days earlier than Dio, and Edward analyzed it carefully and felt that he could try to win over Major Dio, even if he failed, it would not be a big deal.
And if it succeeds, it's a huge benefit.
You must know that after the Battle of Pinker in history, the French army has been stationed in Scotland, and from time to time the Scots are organized to touch the beard of England, which has led to the presence of a large number of troops in Scotland, and now Huntington is still stationed with the 3,000 troops of the Earl of Wilson.
You know, these armies were militia overdue, and Edward had to pay a lot of pounds.
Historically, due to financial difficulties, Mary I withdrew her army to England, giving up the opportunity to occupy large swaths of Scotland and annex Scotland by the Tudor crown.
Edward, however, would not be so short-sighted, and he would do his best to keep the army stationed in Huntington.
So, Darkblade was dispatched at this time, with the king's order, to contact Major Dio, and first of all, Boris, the captain of the personal army, was the first contact object.
Seeing Dio's thoughtful look, Boris did not continue to persuade, he understood that he did not have to contribute to this kind of big thing, otherwise it would be counterproductive.
Dio was also very conflicted at this time, on the one hand, staying in France, maybe he was still the promising major, and after a while, he might become a commoner, and he would have a chance to reunite with his wife; On the other hand, if you join England, you may become a nobleman and get the responsibility of king, or you may be left unused and left behind, never to be reunited with your wife.
This uncertainty made him extremely uneasy, and both sides could find nothing, their eyes did not move, but they couldn't help but think about the pros and cons in their hearts.
He was sent to Scotland to help the Scots defend themselves against the invasion of England, and by the way, he sent Queen Mary back to France to marry the Crown Prince.
As a result, only one and a half of the two things were completed, and it angered the king, and it was certain that he would be dismissed, and there was still a glimmer of hope in England.
"Boris, what do you think of the outcome of my trip to England?"
Raising his head, Dio turned his gaze back to the son of the serf.
"Young master, if you go to England with the army, I don't think a baron will be able to escape!"
After ten years of coming out of his home, staying by Major Theo's side, and having been exposed to it for so long, Boris no longer saw only a small manor.
Boris's answer was not what Dio expected, he said what Dio thought, and it was the best outcome, perhaps a knight or some land.
And these were not what Dio wanted, and it was not worth the risk he had, so he was ready to do a big deal.
"You go back immediately, find the businessman, and ask him how the situation is, I don't want to end up with a bamboo basket to draw water, a void, and get an illusory promise!"
Now that he had made up his mind, Dio wanted to get real benefits, and he wanted to maximize them.
"Yes, young master, I'll go right away!" Hearing Dio's order, Boris, who was waiting quietly, immediately responded.
Immediately, a frustrated Boris returned to his home, while a man dressed as a businessman was waiting for him in the living room.
