By the time the warriors had set up the ladder and climbed the wall, the guards on the wall had run out.

There were a few corpses scattered on the city walls, and a few seriously wounded people moaning there.

Poor explosive power......

The loss of the city of York has upheaved the royal palaces of England!

Edward Chester, the crown prince of England, panicked and messed up...... His mother, Queen Elena, was calm at this time, and advised her son not to panic, and everything was waiting for King Edward to come back to deal with it.

Richard Garveston, a close "friend" of the crown prince, pointed fingers at a map of England, scolding the incompetence of the English generals, claiming that if he led the army, he would never have been completely defeated by the Scottish peasants and the city of York was occupied.

Edward Chester, the Crown Prince of England, really wanted his close "friend" Richard Garveston to lead the army of all England...... Of course, he doesn't have that power now.

Long-legged Edward is finally back...... He asked his son calmly.

"You just lost York City like that? I've heard that no one died......"

"Father, I have imprisoned the governor of York who has fled back......"

Edward Longlegs smiled and said, "It doesn't help to lock up your own people......"

At this time, Richard Gaviston finally mustered up the courage and said, "We have other ways to deal with it!" ”

Edward Longleg looked at Richard Gaviston with pleasure, as if he had discovered talent, and said, "Oh, what good can you do?" ”

Crown Prince Edward Chester was happy for his friend and immediately said: "Richard has the talent of a general!" ”

Edward the long-legged nodded in understanding, and he affectionately put his hand on Richard Gaviston's shoulder, saying, "I'm the one who likes young talent the most...... Come, come here and tell us what you think of the current situation......"

The two of them walked towards the light.

At this time, the sun was slanting and shining directly into the room through the window without any window frames.

Richard Gaviston was about to speak his mind, but Edward Long-legged grabbed him by the collar at once, grabbed his crotch with the other hand, and threw him out of the window at once.

The tower was fifteen meters high, and the poor young talent Richard Gaviston could not turn into a bird, and he screamed "ah" in the air and fell to his death.

The two guards heard the screams and hurried over, glanced at the dead bodies on the ground, and then looked up at the king upstairs, and they left as if nothing had happened.

Yes...... Crown Prince Edward Chester was bloody, and he pulled out his dagger and stabbed his father!

Edward Longleg gently grabbed his son's wrist with his arm, shook the dagger in his hand away, and then kicked him down.

He said coldly: "You actually used a knife against your father for a fool! ”

Crown Prince Edward Chester wept and said, "Richard is the most valiant knight, the wisest knight!" ”

"Shut up! Will the valiant knight make it easy for me to throw out the window?! ”

Crown Prince Edward Chester was speechless for a moment, so he had to cry quietly.

Edward Longleg gave him a disgusted look, turned around, and muttered to himself, "Yorktown's problems are still there...... The best thing to do now is to negotiate and see what they want...... But who will be sent?

I'll go, they'll kill me directly, I know how much the Scots hate me...... My son can't go to ...... either."

This is when Isabel came in, and Edward Longleg was pleased.

Just right, you can let her go!

She was French and had no enmity with the Scottish peasants...... And she is beautiful, such a woman has an advantage in negotiating with men.

Isabel arrived outside York in a four-wheeled carriage depicting the royal family of England.

Her maid entered the city gate alone and asked to see William Wallace.

William Wallace couldn't believe his ears that Edward the Long Legs had sent his daughter-in-law to negotiate with him!

But in the end, he agreed to Isabel's request and negotiated with her in person.

William Wallace led his men to the tent set up by Isabel outside the city, and he walked in alone.

William Wallace saw the handmaiden he had seen earlier, and a veiled woman...... Her figure is very sexy.

The veiled woman, after introducing her identity, revealed that she was authorized to represent Long-legged Edward.

She said: "We know about your wife and appreciate your courage.

The King of England promised you to become one of the nobles of Scotland...... As long as you lead your troops out of Yorktown, we'll give you a chest of gold and a large amount of fiefdoms......"

William Wallace exclaimed, "Let me be a nobleman? Give me gold and fiefdoms? And then make all the Scots slaves ?! ”

Isabel's maid then said in French: "He is a rude Scottish peasant, and perhaps has not figured out our conditions......"

William Wallace immediately said in French:

"I understand French and I can speak French! I also speak Latin and the Great Song dialect...... I'm sure you've never heard of it!

There is not a distinction between grace and rudeness between us, but it is only right for you to think that the Scottish people of this land live to provide for you, and to oppress and insult them...... I think you should give the Scots back the freedom to say what they want and live the life they want.

If you don't want to give them back their freedom...... We're going to take it ourselves, and it's as simple as that!

I'm not fighting to become a nobleman, to have gold and fiefdoms, just to get our freedom back! ”

"Is freedom more important than being able to survive?!"

"Yes! Freedom is all that man has, and life without it is just an empty box!

Everyone dies, but not everyone ever really lives...... My experience has taught me that I have to fight for freedom......"

"And what are the conditions you offered?"

"All the English nobles and soldiers have left Scotland, and no Englishman's shoes can set foot on the territory of Scotland without our invitation......"

“……”

This request was so unexpected that Isabel didn't know how to answer it for a while.

Edward the Long Legs would not have agreed to this request, and neither would the people of England.

“…… You will not be independent of the ...... outside the Kingdom of England."

"Haha, I know your answer! Go back and tell your king that I will not submit to domination, nor will I be tempted by him...... I know many ways to make others slaves, and I have seen great Orientals who took the initiative to give freedom to others.

I will fight for freedom for the rest of my life...... While I was alive, so were all the Scots! ”

"Are you sure all Scots think like you?!"

“…… Not sure, I know that there will be people who will be willing to be slaves for a little profit, and will even sing the praises of being slaves...... However, I can be sure that all these people I bring will fight for freedom!

Only those who fight for freedom are truly free people!! ”

This time the negotiations are unlikely to succeed......

William Wallace stood on the walls of the city of York and watched the carriage with the coat of arms of the royal family of England walk away.
