My British Empire

  Chapter 38 Marriage Invitation Letter

  Edward opened the letter impatiently after the two left. I saw it written above:

   "Your Majesty the King! Please forgive me for taking so long to write to you!"

   "Since you left Windsor Castle, there have been waves in London."

  Busy until the evening, Guy had time to write a letter to his lord.

   Spreading out the newly bought white paper and quill pen, Guy sat on the chair and wrote silently with the help of the small oil lamp bought yesterday.

   "The Duke of Somerset discussed with the ministers of the Regency Council and passed the decision to expand the reform!"

   "After that, His Excellency the Duke gave full play to his eloquence, and first launched a lobbying speech in the House of Lords!"

"Of course, even if the Duke is dumb, I think the House of Lords will pass his bill! Members will not try the power of kingship!" Gay's writing is full of ridicule for those nobles, even as a Once a member of the gentlemen, he was not stingy with ridiculing them, and his strength was far greater than that of the nobles.

   "How can the entourage of the House of Commons resist the decision of the noble lord of the House of Lords?"

   "Even though they pretended to be negotiating, they spent a long time discussing, trying to prove that they represent the interests of the majority of the people of England!" Gay's ridicule was so sharp that he directly lifted the veil of the parliament.

   "In fact, on the contrary, they enjoy the privileges of being members of parliament and agree with the decision of the House of Lords!"

"The House of Lords spent half an hour voting, while the House of Commons spent an afternoon discussing. In fact, the decisions of the two are exactly the same!" Guy found that his letter was full of views on the members of Congress. with personal factors.

  Guy thought about it and decided not to make changes. His Majesty's rights no longer need to be guaranteed by Congress, and a strong royal power is the foundation of England's strength.

  Edward couldn't help but feel very relieved when he saw this, and finally saw a supporter of the kingship. At the end of the Middle Ages, the era of kingship is coming, and all things that prevent it from being strong will eventually be destroyed.

  Thinking of this, Edward couldn't help but suddenly became more willing to restructure the parliament. He didn't want to be that trash of Charles I.

  Edward continued to read.

   "So far, the Duke of Somerset has abolished the "Treason Law", "Heretic Law", and "Six Creed Law" established by the previous king have all been abolished!"

  In fact, Edward already knew his uncle's determination to abolish these three laws.

  On the night before going to Windsor Manor, the entire castle was full of noise.

  Servants and maids have stayed in Windsor Castle for a long time. Unlike Henry VIII, Edward likes to wander around all year. He likes to be a quiet and handsome man.

  So when Edward announced that he was moving to Windsor Manor, the maids hurriedly packed the travel packages, the male servants prepared the travel tools, and prepared saddles and horse food for the horses.

  Edward let them prepare. As a king, he only needs to read quietly.

   "Your Majesty! The Duke of Somerset please see me!" Lucy whispered after saluting Edward.

  After Edward closed the book, he nodded slightly, and Lucy went out and brought the Duke of Somerset in.

   "My dear uncle, I haven't seen you for a few days, and you look more and more charming!" Edward took the initiative to greet the Duke when he saw the Duke coming in.

   "Oh! My little Edward, how is your physical condition?" His Excellency the Duke cared about Edward's body with an affectionate look.

   "It's okay! My body is getting better and better, and your care has made me feel better!" Edward joked.

   "Haha! Little Edward, you are getting more and more humorous!" The Duke laughed.

   "I don't know what's the matter with you coming to me, uncle?" Edward asked the Duke of Somerset with a simple face, which seemed to fit the characteristics that a child should have.

   "Edward, I came here for the future of England!"

   "Speak, my dear uncle!" Edward was lying on the chair with an indifferent face, without the posture of a king. The enthusiasm at the beginning is gone.

   "I think some decrees of the previous kings need to be improved, so that the true glory of God can shine on England!" His Excellency the Duke seemed to have gotten used to Edward's lazy look, and he still said without changing his face.

   "For example?" Edward asked lazily, looking like he needed a beating.

   "For example, "Treason Law", "Heretic Law", and "Six Tenets Law", etc." Although the Duke was surprised by Edward's unreasonable playing of cards, he still reacted to his self-cultivation as an old-fashioned politician.

   "Yes! You can dispose of them as you like!" Edward heard this, and immediately straightened his sitting posture, and became serious.

  In fact, at present, the reforms of Edward’s uncle, the Duke of Seymour, are still in line with Edward’s interests. The gradual development of religious reforms complements the strength of the Tudor kingship. It was not until the later period of Elizabeth I that the power of the capitalists continued to grow, and the religious reform was reduced to a tool for them to seek political needs.

  After Edward agreed to this matter, the two started a happy relative banquet together. That night, the guests and the host broke up the banquet happily, and both of them got a release of their acting skills.

  In fact, Duke Seymour not only got Edward's permission, but also got Edward's promise that he would always support his reforms, saving him a lot of time.

  Edward came back to his senses, and then read the letter written by Captain Guy.

   "And the task you entrusted to me to take in orphans has almost been completed! There are no orphans in the entire London market!"

   "And we took in a total of 1,568 people, including 660 girls and 908 boys!"

   "Among them, there are one thousand one hundred and thirty people under the age of ten, and four hundred and thirty-eight people between the ages of ten and fourteen!"

   "Thanks to God's blessing, and Your Majesty's support, we have recruited thirty-one down-and-out gentlemen to join us!"

   "Of course, I still want to listen to your instructions this time. How will you deal with these children?"

   "They are almost starved of the food sent by Windsor Castle, which is only enough for them to eat for a week now!

  —Your loyal Guy Ham"

Edward seemed to see his helplessness and complaints about those orphans from the letter. Edward could only ask Windsor Manor to send 3,000 bushels of rye, which was equivalent to 219,000 catties of rye, enough for more than a thousand people. Open your stomach and eat the first half of the year.

  After reading this, Edward stretched his waist greatly. He was exhausted. He looked up at the big hanging clock. The hour hand had already pointed to eight o'clock, and an hour and a half had passed.

   "Your Majesty, Queen Catherine has sent you an invitation letter!" Lucy's crisp voice sounded.

   "Bring it!" Edward said helplessly when he heard the letter from Queen Catherine.

   "What? A wedding invitation!" Edward opened it, and suddenly let out a voice in surprise.
