Peter MacDonald tilted his head and thought for a moment, then said in English with a strong Scottish accent, "I know." To rob a prison is to open the prison gates, kill the prison guards, and then release all the people inside. ”

"McDonald, you haven't robbed a prison, how do you know?"

"Fool, a prison is like a castle, just attack the prison the same way you attack the castle."

"Peter, if we're in prison, when are we going to rob it?"

The Scottish man looked at each other and suddenly said, "Every Sunday Mass is on the morning of Sunday Mass, while the prison guards are going to Mass." ”

The thief laughed and said, "It can't be that all the guards go to Mass, right?" ”

Peter stretched out his palm and slapped the other man's head: "Stupid, how many guards are left to watch over you during Mass?" ”

"By the way, which castle did Sir say we couldn't rob?"

"Nottingham Castle in the county, I think it's probably the castle of the county guard." When Peter McDonald had finished speaking, he instructed the others: "Brothers, put out the fire, take the uneaten food and your weapons, and go!" ”

This man-made "plague" quickly disappeared into the night, and would soon engulf the villages and towns of Richmondshire, ruthlessly destroying the peace and tranquility to which the people had become accustomed.

After Isabelle Walton's Duke left Leicestershire, the law and order situation in Richmondshire had deteriorated for a week. As more and more clerks, farmers, jomans, and gentlemen reported cases of robbery, assault, and violence to his magistrate's court, Baron Haswell finally began to take this series of vigilante cases seriously.

Peter MacDonald, on the other hand, arranged for five or six thieves to enter the taverns of villages and towns dressed as landless farmers who had been reduced to idleness because of the enclosure. After making fun of women, insulting the locals, and even threatening the lives of others with weapons, they got into armed clashes with the locals in the tavern.

Alexander Longman, who was placed on the security patrol by Isabel Walton, quickly arrived at the scene and bravely "defeated" this group of landless farmers armed with various weapons. Then, under Sir Alex Ferguson's arrangement, they were sent to a prison dedicated to the detention of landless vagrants in the counties.

Public order cases continue to occur, and people who should be imprisoned are already waiting in prison for news of the robbery. Sir Alex Ferguson went to the Magistrates' Court to ask Baron Haswell for some of the security patrols to strengthen the castle's guards on the grounds that he would strengthen the guard of the Duke of Richmond's castle.

Baron Haswell has been reeling from the numerous policing cases that have taken place this week. When he heard Sir Alex Ferguson's request to him, he simply said, "Sir, I need my vigilante to keep the county in order." Now that there are so many law and order cases in the county, I simply don't have enough men to guard the Duke's castle. ”

Sir sneered and said calmly, "So, Your Excellency, would you rather maintain law and order in your county than guard the castle of His Royal Highness the County Governor?" ”

"Sir, it's my duty to keep this county at peace. Moreover, I am not a retainer of the Duke, so I will not accept orders from the Duke's retainers. ”

"Your Excellency, I'm just talking to you about what to do. If you really don't have enough manpower, why don't you seek relief from the circuit judge and the magistrate in the neighboring county? ”

"Sir, law and order in the county has not deteriorated to that point at present. I'm sorry, but I'm going to interrogate a suspect criminal. ”

Ferguson's real idea in suggesting to Baron Haswell was for the Baron to write immediately to the circuit judge and the magistrate of the neighbouring county seeking judicial redress. When the Baron sent his servants to deliver the letters, he had the messengers hijacked on the road to intercept the letters, in order to prevent the Baron from receiving relief from other magistrates, thus further deteriorating the law and order in Richmondshire to an uncontrollable degree.

Early in the morning of Sunday Mass the first week, the thieves on standby inside the prison opened the cell door with the tools they had hidden, killed the prison guards, and freed all the landless vagrants who were imprisoned in the cells.

Having had enough of the torture in prison, the landless wanderers, patiently taught by the thieves, did not go to the Magistrate's Court of Baron Haswell, but followed the thieves towards their hiding place.

The same technique was repeated in the second week. This time, Henry's retainers and the other yomans and gentlemen in the county were furious. While their letters of relief to Henry VIII were being sent to the court in the city of London, Isabel Walton was still in the streets of Windsor trying to listen to the ladies and ladies who were talking about her.

———————————

The Duke of Richmond, who had finished writing the letter, rolled up the letter paper and stamped it with fire paint wax, and after Eugene, the valet of the valet, took out the letter and handed it to the servant who delivered the letter, Henry relaxed and rested in the long back chair.

Isabel wanted to know the inside story of the marriage contract between Henry's young companion, the Earl of Surrey, and Mary Duyi, so she asked gently: "Henry, don't you want to go and see your half-sister when you come back this time?" ”

"Actually, I wanted to stop and visit her when I was passing through Hertfordshire. However, I was worried that she was still in the grief of losing her mother, so I didn't stop the carriage. Henry's eyes looked into the distance and spoke thoughtfully.

"I'm sorry, Henry, and I'm very sad that she lost her mother."

"You don't have to feel sorry for her mother, Isabel. If her mother had agreed to the king's request soon, maybe... Mary will not be reduced to the status of an illegitimate daughter. ”

"Henry, do you know why Catherine of Aragon refused to divorce the king in the first place? Because if the queen agrees, her daughter Mary will lose the right to inherit the throne. ”

Henry looked at her back and smiled faintly: "Isabel, you're right. ”

Isabel turned to look at him and walked to the window on the side: "Henry, Mary is the first in line to the throne with royal blood, this is a fact that no one can change. ”

Towards lunch, a man dressed as a royal servant followed Eugene into the study. When the servants saw Henry, they saluted and said, "Duke, His Majesty has told you to enter the palace at once and wait for the summons." ”

At this time, Isabel was still strolling leisurely by a large pond in the back garden of the estate. When one of the servants came to tell her about Henry's entry into the palace, she couldn't help but laugh to herself: "It's finally here, probably Richmondshire is about to lose control." ”
