??Although the Scottish nobles are also loyal to the royal family, they are far inferior to the English nobles.
?? More importantly, the Scottish nobles can only help Edward stabilize Scotland, while the English nobles can help him stabilize England.
?? Logically speaking, the functions of the two factions of nobles are the same, and they should be equal.
?? But in fact, it is different. The importance of the English nobility is much higher than that of the Scottish nobility.
??That's because England is the root of Edward. With England, there are Scotland, Wales, and Ireland.
??In terms of population, England has more than three million people, while Scotland has only a few million people, and many of them are controlled by nobles.
?? In terms of taxation, England pays hundreds of thousands of taxes and is the largest taxpayer in the United Kingdom. Not to mention, it provides a lot of wealth for the royal family.
?? More importantly, Edward is the king of England first, but the crown of Scotland is shared with Mary, and the importance is immediately clear.
??England is his foundation, and only with England can he have everything.
??So, the words of the Duke of Norfolk immediately made His Majesty the King feel uneasy.
?? "The choice between the English nobles and the Scottish nobles is of course beyond doubt. We should indeed be cautious about weakening the English nobles!"
?? After thinking about it for a while, Edward came to a conclusion.
Huh-
?? What I just said was about the arrest of nobles, what does it have to do with the nobles of England?
?? "Damn, sure enough, everyone is simple, don't look at him young, but be careful and think a lot!"
??In the blink of an eye, the capture of the nobles was immediately involved in the struggle between the English nobles and the Scottish nobles, forcing the king to make a choice.
??Catch it, the power of the English nobility will be weakened, the power of the Scottish nobility will increase, and the balance will be broken.
?? His own rule is also not stable.
?? Don't catch it! But they are all Calvinists, and if they are released, the harm will be even greater in the future.
??So, it made it difficult for Edward to make a choice for a while.
??The Duke of Norfolk smiled, sitting in the carriage, returning to the mansion.
??Finally, when he saw the astonishment in His Majesty's eyes, he knew that his purpose was almost inseparable.
His Majesty the King is the center of power. Even though the cabinet is still in London, most of the nobles have come to the vicinity of Windsor Castle, selling land to buy land, and building houses. For a while, the arrival of the Scottish nobles made the entire Windsor Castle The land is hot and the price is skyrocketing.
?? Sitting in the carriage, the sound of jingling came from my ears. His Excellency opened the curtain of the bed and looked at the pictures of the groundbreaking and the dust, which made His Excellency the happy mood immediately dissipated.
?? "A group of Scottish savages, thinking that moving to London is civilization, and they are shameless!"
?? No need to guess, His Excellency the Duke knows that this is the group of Scottish nobles who are building houses.
??After all, there are very few unowned villas near Windsor Castle, and if they want to follow His Majesty the King, they can only buy land and build houses.
?? Regarding this, the young Duke naturally looked down on him, his eyes were full of contempt.
?? As everyone knows, outside the car, a group of Scottish nobles are gathering together, riding horses and carrying bows, huddling in front and back, very majestic.
??A group of people are discussing their prey, happily.
??Although they stayed in the bustling city of London, they were dazzled by all kinds of things, curious and enjoying.
?? But, in the final analysis, they came from Scotland after all. Although the city is good, it is not as refreshing as hunting on horseback.
??So, taking His Majesty the King to Windsor Castle, they also got together and started hunting.
??For civilians, they cannot hunt at will without the permission of the lord, but they are nobles, which is a natural exception.
??Besides, there are hundreds of people in their group, and any noble who dares to come to obstruct them is afraid that they will be beaten.
?? "Your Excellency, today is really rewarding!" The green-eyed, red-haired Earl Lannox had two deer and a wild boar piled up beside him. Naturally, the nobles winked and flattered.
?? "What's the matter? Today's harvest is less than half of my usual. England is not as good as Scotland. If I just do it casually, there will be more than one wolf!"
??Even though he was almost thirty years old, Earl Lannox was still reckless and rude. He stroked his beard, raised his chin, and said arrogantly.
?? "Only wolves can reflect the courage of our men. Those English girls naturally can't understand."
?? Following the earl's words, many Scottish nobles immediately laughed.
??Just as England called the Scots barbarians, the Scottish aristocrats were naturally unwilling to lag behind, and quickly nicknamed the gentlemanly English aristocrats, laughing at their timidity, hesitation, and lack of decisiveness of men.
?? "Hey, Your Excellency, isn't that the Duke of Norfolk's family crest? It's the Duke of Norfolk's carriage as usual!"
?? Aside, the sharp-eyed nobleman saw the Duke of Norfolk's carriage and said hastily.
??Although he looks down on the English nobles, as the only duke in England, the leader of the nobility, and the family emblem of the Duke of Norfolk, many nobles naturally know it.
?? After all, knowing the family crest of nobles is the knowledge they must have.
?? "It's really the crest of the Duke of Norfolk's family. I'm afraid the Duke of Norfolk is sitting inside!" Earl Lannox immediately looked up, thought for a while, and said.
?? "This carriage came out of Windsor Castle as usual. It seems that the duke went to see His Majesty the King, but I don't know if he has met him!" Another nobleman immediately said, his tone was full of sarcasm.
?? "What's going on? Why did the Duke of Norfolk ask to see the king! What happened?" Earl Lannox was a little confused for a while. He didn't care much about political matters. When he got the news, he immediately asked.
??Seeing that His Excellency the Earl was interested, the little noble immediately puffed up his chest and said:
?? "I heard that a while ago, two spy organizations under His Majesty the King were mobilized and arrested several English nobles!"
?? "The Duke of Norfolk, as the leader of the nobles, naturally cannot just sit idly by. He can only ask His Majesty the King, but His Majesty the King has refused to accept his request for an audience several times!" The earl naturally expressed his interest in the little nobleman.
?? "What? His Majesty the King was able to arrest nobles, but his spies did it. How is it possible?" Earl Lannox couldn't believe it when he heard the news.
??It is really hard for him to imagine that in Scotland, even if the nobles treasoned the country, but only if the parliament decides that the nobles are innocent, His Majesty the King can't fart.
??In England, the king's lackeys dared to arrest the nobles at will, and asked the Duke to intercede.
??Such a picture is really unimaginable.
??When did the king have so much power?
