The carriage deftly turned down a street, and the coachman who drove the carriage was Mansfield's servant for many years, and his excellent driving skills made the carriage run exceptionally smoothly.

This made Mansfil, who was in the carriage, very satisfied, but as he turned the street, Mansfil faintly heard someone in the alley in front of him talking in a very passionate voice.

"Ladies and gentlemen, your land is gone, and it is because Her Majesty Margaret has decreed that it must be returned to the Church of Light. ”

"Slow down, slow down. Mansfield instructed his driver to slow down, and as he passed the alley in front of him, he opened a slit in the window and looked inside.

He saw that at the end of the alley, there were more than a dozen people surrounding a person, and that person was waving his fist and "explaining" to the crowd in an impassioned voice.

"But the land used to be wasteland. ”

"How can this be. ”

"We had no land, so we had to work in the workshop in the city, but after only a few days, the boss was dismissing people, and I heard that the land where the workshop was located was to be returned to the church. ”

"How is it possible for the church to have so much land?"

"Didn't the factory owner buy that land?"

"It's useless, although it was bought, but I heard that the land was bought from a nobleman, and the land originally belonged to the church. ”

"But no matter what, we're going to live. ”

"Do you still dare to petition? You have already bled in front of Perth Palace last time......."

The gossip sound reached Mansfield's ears, and he was a little frightened to hear it, for he could tell that there was a strong resentment in it.

He waved his hand. The coachman moved the carriage again. Head towards Regina House.

"Sir. Do you want to inform the police and the Guards Regiment of St. Quentin?"

"What are you doing informing them?" Mansfield said, surprised.

The coachman scratched his head and said: "Since the last failed petition at the Perth Palace, there have often been people who have gathered to express their dissatisfaction with Her Majesty Magritte, and at first the police would go to chase them away, and then more and more, the police could not control it at all, and the Guards Corps also began to intervene, and the day before yesterday it was revealed that an unemployed worker met in an old warehouse to attack the Perth Palace, and all the people inside were thrown into prison. ”

"No need. Mansfield sighed. "It's a palliative, not a cure. ”

He pondered that the Perth Palace had now broken with the old aristocracy, and was very unhappy with the new factory owners and merchants.

Margaret ordered the return of their former property to the Church of Light, and the nobles seemed to give in, but Regina and Mansfield saw a different picture.

The great nobles, led by the three dukes, Disraeli, and Childs, only returned a small amount of land that the church still remembered, and a large number of land that the church had vague memories and real estate that needed to be returned, but they shamelessly replaced it with public wasteland, trying to hide it. Now they are in a tussle with the church.

At the same time, those peasants who lost their land. And when these landless people came to the city, they found that they had not found a way to survive in the city.

It stands to reason that it should not be, because the workshops in various cities are short of people and need to expand, but in this land return, many factory owners are also caught in land disputes, and many of their land is bought from the hands of the nobles, or the declining nobles pay off their debts, but now they are all said to be the former property of the church and must be returned.

The aristocrats, on the other hand, instigated the people and pointed the finger at the Perth Palace, causing the same effect as they had just seen in passing, and the lower classes of the people believed that Margaret and the Church of Light were the cause of this qiē.

Unfortunately, Margaret didn't see any hindrance to this, and her attitude towards it was resolute repression, but she didn't see the growing number of homeless people in St. Quentin, even though the city guards had begun to ban new homeless people from entering the city.

Only old Edwardian courtiers like Regina and Mansfield were worried, and the street agitation like the one just now, Mansfield had not heard it once, he had heard it at least three times from his own home to Reginal's house, and once it was discovered by the group, who saw the nobleman's carriage and scattered in a hurry.

Mansfield, on his instincts, thought that this was inappropriate.

However, this kind of 'small matter' is not something that Mansfield needs to pay attention to first, he came to Regina to discuss some things, and there are too many things than this kind of 'little thing' just now.

Even Regina's biggest duty, collecting taxes, was not the highest priority, and after the dissolution of the Parliament, the matter of raising taxes was temporarily gone, and the original taxes, the nobles, factory owners, and merchants were also passively resisting, and their reason was that the return of land led to the lack of tax revenue.

But in terms of money, Margaret did not urge it hard, because she was in the midst of a marriage with the Saxons in the midst of a loan from the church.

But it's more urgent than that, half a month ago, there was a riot in the direction of the Free City, the kingdom's garrison in the Mithril Mine and the army of the Free City had a friction, and as a result, it was expelled, and the Mithril Mine was completely taken over by the Free City.

Judging from the information obtained, it seems that it was indeed the kingdom's garrison stationed in the Mithril Mine who made mistakes first, and some people got drunk and provoked first, and finally turned into a large-scale conflict.

But I have to say that the current garrison is really useless, in the past, half of the Hokage Legion was stationed there, responsible for monitoring mining and transshipment, but with the frequent outbreak of foreign wars in recent years, the recent Battle of the East Beast Plains is still continuing, and the main army in the past is either stationed in more important places or on the battlefield, and the Mithril mine near the Free City has long been replaced by half of the second-level legion transferred from elsewhere, but this time it was forcibly expelled.

Mansfil took this matter very seriously, and it was necessary to calm it down as much as possible, and preferably not to use force, and it was Regina who persuaded the Free City to submit to Asturias in the first place, so Mansfil wanted him to still intervene.

However, when Mansfil arrived at Regina's house, he heard something even more shocking than the Mithril Mine incident.

Duke Aldrich of County Leon has raised his army.

The reason for his army was that Perth Palace was deceived by traitors, persecuted nobles and citizens, and he demanded that the royal family return power to Parliament and expel the traitors around him.

"Your Majesty, I am not going to send troops to fight Duke Aldrich. Fjarez said.

"But if you don't suppress him at once, will you really let him fight like this?" said Margaret, slightly alarmed.

"No, Your Majesty, you misunderstood, what I said was that I was not going to go in person, but I would send another general, such as General Xitin. Freyas said.

"Why?" said Margaret, puzzled, "shouldn't such a thief be extinguished as much as possible, in case anyone else does what he does......

"Your Majesty, Duke Aldrich should just be a decoy. Freyas said lightly, "With his little strength, how can he be able to fight against His Majesty, needless to say, there must be someone behind him." ”

"Do you mean the Duke of Medici?" said Margaret uneasily, "I thought they had succumbed, this is rebellion!"

"Maybe it's them, or maybe it's someone else, and it can't be absolutely ruled out that only Duke Aldrich is stupid and delusional to block the car. But in the absence of evidence, your majesty should not act rashly, and the last time you sent Benjamin and Osteen to prison, it has already caused confrontation. Aldrich's stupidity, of course, needs to be suppressed, but I think General Sitin is enough, and with him leading a part of the Guards, he should be able to win easily. If Aldrich really has someone behind him, then it is very likely that they are trying to lead me into battle, and General Sitin will attack, and they will either watch Aldrich fall, or they will have to show their original form. ”

"But, if Aldrich really has a helper behind him, will General Sitin lose?"

"Your Majesty, if Aldrich is just a pawn and there are other forces behind him to support him, then General Sitin may indeed fail. Freas said, "But in this way, the black hand behind him can no longer be hidden, and he must show up." Your Majesty, no matter how cunning the mastermind behind this is, most of the kingdom's forces are in our hands, and we only need to be upright, the soldiers will block, the water will flood, and when the other party shows his true identity, we can defeat him. What I have to guarantee is the safety of His Majesty, and I can't ...... like William."

In the end, Freas's voice became painful, his strategy was nothing unusual, that is, one move and one style were tough, and he made up his mind, whether the other party was only Aldrich or another black hand, in short, he would sit in the royal capital, and when the other party appeared, he would immediately recall the East Beast Yuan or give up Yugudral, and gather superior forces to destroy the enemy with a thunderous force.

If the other party lures himself to attack, and again deals with Margaret like he did against William's Majesty, it is doomed to disappointment.

Margaret clenched her fists, "Then order General Siting to come back from the Fadel plane, hand over three brigades of guards to him, and then allow him to send the city guards along the road to crusade against Aldrich! ”

"Well, if General Siting can quickly pacify Aldrich, it must be able to give birth to a deterrent effect. Freyas hesitated, "Your Majesty, I once promised Edward that His Majesty would only protect the Norman family and never interfere with the royal family, but it is easy to pacify an Aldrich, as long as I am here, I will never let some secretly wrongdoers threaten His Majesty, but His Majesty's long-term strategy is to eliminate the contradictions with the nobles." ”

Margaret's little face couldn't help but turn cold, and she reluctantly responded: "I know all this, I will think about it, so let's stop here today." (To be continued......)
