  Chapter 93 under the meeting

  ps: The second round is still available during the day! Do not worry

  Edward was quite satisfied with the attitude of the two ministers, after all, the majesty of the king had not descended on them for two years.

  These two important ministers had a respectful attitude towards Edward and had a great influence, which indicated that the ministers left by Henry VIII had fully accepted Edward's pro-government, and on the surface they had obeyed Edward's leadership.

   "Is there anything else? Gentlemen!" Edward frowned as he looked at the conference room that had fallen silent again, and couldn't help asking in a deep voice.

  The Earl of Warwick glanced at Lord Justice Earl Robert who was solemnly closing his eyes and meditating, and blinked at him.

   And His Excellency the Judge opened his eyes at the right time, just in time to see the Earl of Warwick's gesture to him.

  His Excellency shook his head slightly, indicating that he could not, but the Earl of Warwick shook his head to express his refusal, but the Earl's eyes became sharper.

  Looking at the Earl of Warwick who was staring at him closely, His Excellency sighed helplessly, scratched his ears, and stood up.

   "Your Majesty, Earl Edward has been captured by the Star Chamber Court and has now been convicted! I don't know how your Majesty will deal with it!"

  Knowing that Edward Seymour is the uncle of His Majesty the King, the justice still bit the bullet and reported to Edward.

  Hearing what the judge said, Edward couldn't help but shoot him with his eyes.

  Seeing His Majesty the king's sharp eyes sweeping towards him, the judge couldn't help shrinking his neck, but reacted instantly, puffed out his chest, and looked at Edward with his eyes.

   Seeing the virtue of the judge in front of him, Edward knew that this was not his idea, probably ordered by the Earl of Warwick.

  Edward glanced at the Earl of Warwick who was pretending to be there, and couldn't help thinking.

   "My lord, I feel that Earl Edward's crimes are light compared to his merits!"

  "Although he caused frequent riots in the country and promoted the alliance between Scotland and France. But we can't obliterate his capture of Scotland, which made our border expand to the Huntington area, and has always maintained our advantage and oppression against Scotland."

   "And the relationship between Scotland and France has always been very close, this time it is just speeding up!"

  In fact, when Duke Edward withdrew to London, Major Dio signed a closer treaty with Queen Mary of Scotland, including that France could send 2,000 troops to station in Edinburgh.

  The 2,000-strong French army has become a weapon for Queen Mary to control the government. Scotland is gradually in the hands of this French woman, and the Scottish regent, the Earl of Allen, has almost become a display.

   "So, I think Earl Seymour can be released now, after all, his duke and ruling have been deposed!"

   "You say yes! Dear Your Excellency, do you have any questions from the ministers?"

   "Yes, yes, you are right, Earl Seymour can indeed be released!"

  For Edward's pressing question, His Excellency Judge Robert wiped the sweat from his forehead, feeling a little overwhelmed, so he had no choice but to agree.

"No no!"

   "You're right!"

  ...

   Facing Edward's rhetorical question, all the ministers shook their heads and agreed unanimously.

  The next discussion is Edward's own deployment, but this cannot be proposed by Edward himself, so this important task is handed over to the Minister of Royal Affairs, John Robert.

   "Ministers and Your Majesty the King, a group of pirates entered London some time ago, and they persecuted the nobles with impunity. Fortunately, God bless, Your Majesty is safe and sound."

   "And recently riots broke out in Cumbria and Lancashire near London."

   "These common people are ignorant and ignorant. Even the royal guards are extremely brave, but tigers can't hold back wolves. So for the sake of all the people of England, and to protect the faith of our Lord."

   "I propose that in order to better protect my king, the royal guard should be expanded from 500 to 3,000, so as to protect our Lord of England—the great His Majesty Edward!"

  Sir John didn't say anything, and when he spoke, he was eloquent, and a long paragraph of words came out of his mouth like a machine gun, which made Edward admire him.

   After finishing speaking, Sir John licked his lips, and his mouth moved, as if he was thirsty.

  After Sir John finished speaking, the ministers off the court began to remain silent again.

   Seeing this, the sickly Speaker of the House of Commons, Sir Thomas More, gestured to the Speaker of the House of Lords, Sir Brad Adam, with his eyes.

  The baron glanced at Mr. Jazz, and then he seemed to have not seen it, and chatted happily with the minister beside him.

  Shaking his head alone, Sir More could only stand up by himself, sighing inwardly.

  As the speaker of the House of Commons, he could not ignore the position of the House of Commons, so he could only bite the bullet and offend His Majesty the King and Sir John.

   "Ahem! I have some objections to Sir John's proposal. After all, these pirates and riots do not happen often. Besides, His Majesty the King is still safe at present, so adding guards is unnecessary!"

  Since the establishment of the parliament, members of parliament have unanimously resisted that the king has too many troops. They believe that a king with an army must be dictatorial.

  Sir Moore did not expect that Baron Adam, the speaker of the House of Lords, would ignore his duties and allow the king to expand his army.

   And he can't, if he can't resist, the members of the House of Commons will definitely criticize him.

   "I don't agree with Sir Moore's words. His Majesty the King's safety cannot be missed. Are you responsible for something?"

  The Earl of Boswell suddenly came to check his presence at this time, it seems that he wanted to show his loyalty to Edward!

   Facing Earl Boswell's rebuttal, Sir More didn't say anything, just make an appropriate meaning, and it would be more harm than good to make a mess.

  Besides, today's parliament can no longer restrict the king's rights, and there is no way to stop it.

   "My Lord Bishop, Your Excellency the Earl, do you have any comments?" Edward turned his head and asked Bishop Thomas and the Earl of Warwick.

   "Nothing!" "Very good!" Both of them smiled in agreement.

   "Okay! Everyone, does anyone have any objections to Sir John's proposal?"

  Edward then turned around and asked the ministers present.

  …………

   What responded to Edward was a quiet atmosphere.

   "Okay! Then I agree with Sir John's proposal in public!"

   "Sir John, come to Whitehall Palace in a while, let's discuss about expanding the guards!"

   After Edward announced that the proposal was finalized, he said to Sir John, Minister of Royal Affairs.

   "If there is nothing else, let's adjourn the meeting!"

  Edward spread his hands, stood up, and said to the ministers with serious faces.

   "May God bless you, Your Majesty!"
