Chapter 55 Noisy

Edward, pulled by the carriage, slowly passed by the children who were already half-kneeling on the grass, his face full of emotion.

And the children were dazzled by the bold look up at the luxurious carriage passing in front of them.

Many of them had never seen gold in their lives, let alone a carriage made of a large amount of gold.

When Jack saw Edward for the first time, he was attracted by the golden carriage under him, and his round eyes could not get rid of it anymore, and he followed the carriage straight away, and he did not come to his senses until Edward was far away.

"Hey! Allan! Have you seen His Majesty's carriage made of gold? Jack asked his little friend Alan next to him in a low voice, his little face was flushed, and he looked a little excited.

"Yes! I see it! I heard that there was only one such carriage in the whole of England, and those lords did not have it! Our Majesty the King is our own! Allen's face was also apple-colored because of his excitement, and even his ears became red.

Allen spoke in such a small voice that Jack couldn't hear it unless he listened carefully. Alan shifted his position to the left, his eyes looking around, for fear that the guards who were following the carriage would find out, his lips twitching slightly, looking like a veteran.

"Jack! Speak quietly! Alan reminded.

"Got it! But, Alan! When will we both have our own carriage too! Jack seemed afraid that Alan would say he didn't know how to brag, and then explained, "I mean an ordinary carriage, not a golden carriage!" ”

After listening to Jack's words, Allen, who has always liked to think, immediately remembered that he had heard rumors from others, thought about it seriously, and finally spoke.

"Jack! I've heard that His Majesty has set up an organization called Darkblade, and if you make a meritorious service, you can become a real knight! ”

"Is this true? Allan! Jack asked incredulously.

"It should be true, or let's talk to the coach! Let's go together! ”

"Yes! We're going to be knights! Jack said aloud, full of confidence.

"Be quiet, you want to die!" Alan looked at Jack helplessly, speechless.

"Hey! Allan! Are you telling the truth? I'm going to add one too! A child in the dormitory plucked up his courage and said.

"I want it too!" "Count me in!" "And me!" …… After a while, various voices sounded around Jack.

Edward walked in front of the carriage, and he passed this distance alone with emotion, while the knights behind him had a very different mentality from him!

Baron Smith rode a horse and led a horse, which drew the collective ridicule of the guards, and he simply followed Edward alone, but he was also happy.

"Although they are all little children, there are more than 2,000 people, this is the most majestic since the counterinsurgency, and it is estimated that it will be the last time that Iron Shield will enjoy this glory!"

Baron Smith thought silently in his heart, and his mood was also a little lost, and he couldn't help but look at the old horse Tie Dun who followed him, the war horse that used to gallop on the battlefield, and now it was a little difficult to even trot.

And Alexander and the other knights were very happy. In the era of Chengping, it was rare for these guards to have the opportunity to see so many people gathered neatly.

What a performance opportunity! Be sure to imprint your mighty figure into the minds of those children, and your extraordinary appearance will definitely pass on.

So the knights dressed themselves in fancy clothes, rode on their horses with their heads held high, smiled on what they thought were charming, and walked confidently forward.

In fact, the children were all Edward's Golden Carriage, as well as the strange Baron Smith. And, of course, there is the handsome Alexander Knight, who has always been handsome since childhood.

The Alexander Knight is already very handsome, and with his makeup, he is almost the most beautiful man in England, and it is difficult not to attract attention.

At this time in London, the Duke of Somerset Edward. Seymour is sitting as a minister of the Regency Council! In between, his brows furrowed into a hill, looking at the ministers who were talking in front of him.

"I agree with the Duke's proposal, since the implementation of the bill to dissolve the small hall, the country's finances are more adequate than ever!" The Earl of Boswell gave an impassioned speech, and he really used all his strength.

This Earl of Southampton can testify that he still has residual saliva on his face.

"Not only have we repaid the loan owed by the previous king, but there is also a lot of surplus, which is enough for us to fight a war!"

"But! My Lord Earl Boswell, have you not thought that the barbarians of Scotland will not be caught! ”

"The expedition to Scotland during the reigns of the early kings caused great casualties to our boys in England, which has not healed until now." The Earl of Torrington, who had always supported the Duke of Somerset, turned his guns around and opposed the Duke of Edward's opinion, "Besides, we have no reason to fight with the Northern Barbarians, and the French will not turn a blind eye!" ”

As one of the only nine surviving earls in England, the Earl of Torrington has a strong prestige in the government and parliament.

In fact, one of the reasons for the current scarcity of nobility in England has a lot to do with Henry VIII.

At the beginning of Henry VIII's reign, England still had twenty dukes, marquises, and earls, and after his death, there was only one duke and nine earls, and the number of senior titles was reduced by half.

To give an example, in 1489 he agreed to make the Earl of Nottingham the Marquis of Berkeley, but with the proviso that he could not pass on the title of Marquis of Berkeley to his brother.

As a result, after the death of the Marquis of Nottingham, there was no successor to the titles of earl and marquis, and the two titles were left vacant.

In addition, Henry VIII also stripped the rebels of their property and titles, forbade the nobles to support their families, forbade the nobles from building new castles, forbade the nobles from storing new weapons, and other laws, and strictly restricted the growth of local nobles.

Henry VIII single-handedly stripped twelve nobles of their titles, Elizabeth stripped six nobles of their titles, and by the end of the Tudor dynasty, there was not a single duke in England.

"So, I think this proposal of Lord Duke should be put on hold for a while."

"I do not agree with the Earl of Torrington, I think the Duke is very wise in this decision, I and others have been entrusted by the previous king to unite the Kingdom of England for nearly half a year, and the harassment of Scotland has never stopped."

The Earl of Boswell did not give up the idea of support, but also wanted to evoke the collective honor of the ministers, and the nobles still valued it very much in this regard.

"I think ......" and "I think ......" The ministers expressed their opinions one after another, and the whole meeting was in a mess. Only Count Walkley sat there, as always, looking at the quarrelling minister with a smile and not saying a word.

"All right, gentlemen! Let's talk about that tomorrow! Duke Edward said this, turned and walked out of the conference room.
