ps: It's the end of the month, ask for tickets, ask for subscriptions

A barbecue lasted for nearly an hour, and after the guards had worked hard to sweep away their prey, everyone returned happy.

Before leaving, our king and the illegitimate son of Henry VIII, with their horses in front of them, chatted softly.

"Mr. Sir, the pleasant time has passed, I think you have any thoughts on what's next?"

Edward sat upright on horseback, looked at the birds flying in the sky, and asked with his lips lightly raised.

"What? What do you mean? ”

John. Perrott's handsome face flashed with a hint of surprise and disbelief, and his eyes opened slightly.

"That's right, my sir, your talent should not be wasted in this unattended place, it's a great waste!"

Edward nodded, in clear acknowledgement.

"Although England seems to be too peaceful and quiet at the moment, King Henry II of France is ambitious, and King Charles V of Spain is old and strong, like a prostrate lion, and the dangerous aura is difficult to hide!"

"Only by working hard and catching up can England surpass Spain and France and become the master of Europa!"

"Even, take back our Normandy, take back France that belongs to us!"

Edward took a breath before speaking out loud through his chest.

"Of course, the most important thing is my French throne!" Finally, he silently added in his heart.

Such ambitious, heroic, and passionate words shocked the bastard on horseback to the point that he could not help himself, or rather, shocked the heartstrings.

His Majesty the King is performing so hard, how can John not cooperate, he will not cooperate with the subordinates who lead the acting, he is not a good subordinate.

"Your Majesty, please rest assured, I believe that under your leadership, England will definitely dominate Europa!"

I saw that John lowered his head slightly, with a solemn aura fluttering on his face, bowed to Edward, and complimented him loudly.

"Yes, I believe it too!" Hearing this, Edward turned his head, looked into his sky-blue eyes, and replied in the affirmative.

A look of astonishment flashed across John's face, and then he returned to normal.

He didn't expect the young king to be so confident.

"John, have you ever thought that the skies of London are actually wider and more suitable for you!"

"Yes, that's right, it's exactly what I dreamed of!"

So saying, John sat down on his horse and performed a simple knightly salute, which can also be said to be a noble salute.

In this bright sunshine, a pleasant smile spread on the young king's face.

And the bowed John. Perrotte, the corners of his mouth were also upturned, and his smile was so happy.

This day was the first meeting between these two half-brothers, and it was also the most important moment in their fate.

After that, Edward returned to London with two pretty maids in a carriage and hundreds of guards.

As for John. Perrott, on the other hand, needs to prepare before coming to London to get his future.

At this time, the Knight of Alexander, who had gone to the southwest of England to suppress the Catholic rebellion, finally returned, followed by the Marquis William who hurried back to London.

The day after Edward's return, the two of them came together and asked to see each other.

Edward, dressed in formal attire, welcomed them in the hall, and then changed into his regular clothes and met them in his study.

"Your Majesty—" The two of them waited in the study, and when they saw the king coming in, they immediately bent down and bowed.

As Edward took his seat, the two of them got up and faced the young king.

"Knight Alexander, for those Catholics, your methods of suppression need to be changed, or is it too soft!"

First of all, Edward's eyes fell on the beautiful face of the Alexander Knight, and the faint formal dress on his body still could not hide his handsome face.

"Yes, Your Majesty! I'll try! When Knight Alexander heard this, he immediately bowed his head and responded.

"But your repression of the Catholics was swift and complete, and this credit cannot be erased!"

Seeing that the knight of Alexander admitted his mistake, Edward's voice changed, and his eyes were full of praise, and he praised him.

"It's all thanks to God!" Alexander did not feel any joy at receiving the praise, but spoke in a cliché.

For the appearance of Alexander Knight who is not shocked, Edward still admires it, works seriously, does not complain, and is a typical subordinate!

However, the other one is not very qualified.

"My dear marquis, you did a good job, and for those mobs, you are also clean, there should not be much left now!"

After Edward praised the Alexander knight, he immediately set his eyes on the Marquis William, who was a little cowering on the side.

"Yes, Your Majesty!" Marquis William thought for a moment, and then replied without hesitation: "In the whole of East England, there is not a single Kate's comrade!" ”

"This is good, my Marquis!" Edward only nodded slightly, but his face was as serious as ever.

"But that doesn't change your reckless behavior before!"

"Because of you, I suppose, the militia of England has been depleted! In a few years, there will not be many people in the East of England who will take the initiative to join the militia! ”

Saying this, Edward became angry, and his tone became more and more stern.

Although there is no possibility of any war between Scotland and England in recent years, the Scottish Reformation will exacerbate domestic contradictions and break out at any time.

At this time, it is necessary to have enough troops to intervene, but the militia of East England has been abolished, and the militia of North England has been launched in recent years, and the source of troops has long been exhausted, plus the southwest of England, that is, the eight regions of England, the people have nearly half of the troops that cannot be dispatched.

In other words, there is not enough labor at the hands of His Majesty the King, and it is necessary to spend money on German and Italian mercenaries.

The thought of spending money made the young king's head ache.

"Your Majesty—"

Hearing these words, Marquis William's body couldn't help but tremble slightly, and his head sank more and more.

Seeing a marquis trembling in front of him made Edward feel a little excited, and this feeling was very pleasant.

In this way, Edward pursed his lips and stared at Marquis William quietly, and the air was silent for a few seconds before Edward continued: "However, you were able to suppress that group of mobs in time and capture the Kate brothers, which can be regarded as a credit!" ”

"The merit is over, this page, I will reluctantly open it!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Marquis William wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and said respectfully.

"Unexpectedly, young king, the power is getting bigger and bigger!"

Marquis William thought silently in his heart.

"Actually, Your Majesty, in the end, I was able to exterminate the mob led by Kate in one fell swoop, and thanks to the help of a talent, I was able to complete your commission!"

"I'm here today, and I also want to recommend this folk talent to you!"

Raising his head, Marquis William pondered his situation for a moment, and finally remembered his promise, calmed down, and said softly.

"Oh? Is it? Edward looked surprised.

In fact, he had long guessed that there was someone behind Marquis William.

"I don't know, what's his name?"

"Thomas. Marne, his name is Thomas. Marne! ”
