??Early in the morning, together with other colleagues who had been studying together for more than a month, Lemir was well-dressed and personable as required, and stood in two rows on the road.
?? And he was fortunate to be placed in the second row. If His Majesty the King came, he would be able to witness His Majesty's demeanor with his own eyes.
In this regard, even though he was married and had children, he couldn't help but tremble in the face of England's largest nobleman, ruler, and young king—Edward VI. He couldn't tell whether it was excitement or fear. Anyway, his heart was already I can't be independent anymore.
?? Talking about the life of this month, Lemiel feels that he has enriched a lot. The endless learning every day has broadened his eyes, who were originally poor in knowledge.
??Originally, after working as a small official for several months, he felt that managing a district of 100 households was nothing more than reconciling family conflicts and completing the tasks of the superiors, which was extremely simple.
??Who knows, when he arrives here, he will learn how to count the acres and population, collect taxes, build roads, arrest criminals, recruit troops, and even promote Anglicanism. Of course, he must cooperate with his superiors.
??The Cambridgeshire he went to experienced the riots of Robert Kate, and some soldiers appeared from time to time, threatening the safety of life.
?? Regarding this, Lemiel has no other choice in his heart. As a commoner, if he wants to gain a foothold in the officialdom, or even step into the upper class, and own a manor belonging to his own family, this is his only chance.
??Limir raised his head and looked at the low-key yet luxurious car gradually approaching. His eyes began to focus. He knew that this was undoubtedly His Majesty the King.
??Seeing this, not only him, but everyone else stood up straight, raised their chests, and stared at the approaching carriage.
?? After meeting some leaders of the camp outside the camp, the young king got into the carriage again and began to drive into the abandoned military camp.
??Sitting on the cushion covered with gorgeous blankets, feeling the slower and slower speed of the carriage, the young king felt that he had arrived.
?? Sure enough, when the curtain was lifted, the young king saw a group of young people dressed neatly and eye-catchingly, looking extremely pleasing to the eye.
?? Moreover, as the carriage approached, the people standing upright immediately lowered their hats with their right hands and stroked their chests with their left hands. This is an authentic gentleman's salute.
??Edward glanced over, there were more than 200 people, basically there were no ones, they were all good-looking, and those who were weak had no chance to be selected.
In fact, Edward didn't care much about the people who were selected. In fact, as long as he wasn't a pig, after a month of intensive study, he could master the basic knowledge and manage a small hundred households. District, no problem.
?? It can be said that they are basically the seeds that the central government sprinkled into the local area. They were emptied or seized power. These are the two options after they go to the local area.
?? As for the close to 200 people who were admitted in the exam last year, some of them entered these people.
??The rest of the high admission places are not working in the central government and London. There is still a shortage of educated talents in England, not to mention talents who know English and Latin, which is even more rare.
?? In other words, the improvement of England's literacy rate is due to Thomas Cromwell, an important promoter and standard-bearer of England's Reformation.
?? It was he who promoted the English version of the Bible and wrote the Bible in immature English. Although it was deleted by the nobles and Henry VIII after a few years, the copied English survived after a few years.
??You must know that the gap between English and Latin is like Chinese classical Chinese and vernacular. It is impossible to master Latin without years of study.
?? But English is different.
??It is written in simplified Latin and pronounced in the language of England, that is, the dialect of London. Of course, it can also be pronounced in the national language of Anglo-Saxon. This is the origin of English.
??The Scots and Welsh, and even Ireland are different, they are all Kate, that is to say, English is the language of England, Kate is different.
??The reason why Edward can communicate with little Lolita Marie is naturally because of the close relationship between the two countries. The Scots can more or less speak English. As a member of the royal family, English is even more necessary.
?? Therefore, English, which is easier to learn, has spread, and this is the basis for holding official selection examinations.
??And we should note that English is precisely a dialect, which is incomplete and can be called Old English, while the later modern English was not finally perfected until the eighteenth century.
??So, even if you learn English, it is useless in the Tudor period, and chickens talk to ducks.
??Talking away, but having said that, Edward got out of the carriage with the support of the groom, and moved easily and slowly. More than two hundred people bowed down neatly and took off their hats in salute, which is really spectacular.
?? After inspecting it with his eyes, Edward nodded in satisfaction, walked up to the podium slowly with a high posture.
??He didn't shake hands, or talk cordially or anything. As a king and the biggest nobleman, it was stupid and unnecessary to be friendly to the people at the time.
??As the king walked away slowly, Lemir raised his head slightly, staring at His Majesty the King on the high platform seriously.
I saw that what appeared in front of him was a young man in his teens. He was no more than five feet tall (about 1.5 meters), and he looked a little thin. His hair was slightly yellowish, but overall he was still Most of them are black, draped in waves on the back of the head, and the bright red cloak is matched with the indifferent and proud look on the face, full of nobility.
??Although he is young, he has been in a high position for a long time, and he does not feel majestic, with a mature look on his face that does not match his age.
?? Facing the gazes of hundreds of people, the young His Majesty the King stood still and began to speak with the prepared manuscript.
?? "Gentlemen, I don't need to say much about where you will go next. I just want to tell you that your performance determines your future!"
?? When he was speaking, the surroundings naturally quieted down. Even though his voice was not loud, the more than 200 people in the audience could still hear him clearly.
?? "Greater official positions, a lot of wealth, and even titles are ahead, gently waving to you!"
?? "Here, whether you are a nobleman or a commoner, as long as you work hard and satisfy me and the ministers of the Privy Council, you may have all of these!"
?? Following His Majesty's words full of temptation, the faces of more than two hundred people, including Lemir, instantly turned red.
??As His Majesty the King, the possibility of deceiving them is very small, so it is really possible for them to climb up and go one step further.
??In this era of blood theory, this opportunity is the rarest.
?? Next, His Majesty the young king gave them a big surprise.
?? "Moreover, everyone who is about to leave London will receive ten pounds as the royal family's sympathy for those who are traveling far away!"
??As soon as His Majesty the King finished speaking, two red-clothed guards carried a small suitcase and lifted the lid, revealing the shining gold coins.
?? Lemiel and the others stared at the box of gold coins, drooling, and their eyeballs almost popped out.
??Seeing this, Edward couldn't help smiling: Sure enough, the obvious benefits are more motivating, especially gold coins, which can even arouse the devil in people's hearts.
