My British Empire

ps: At the beginning of the month, ask for tickets, ask for subscription

Facing the surprised expressions of several people, Edward was calm in his heart, and his face was calm and indifferent.

In the Middle Ages, as the only object to communicate with God, this created a different aura for it.

And more importantly, its cost.

The construction of each Bible requires hundreds of pieces of parchment, and the incorruptible transcription of a single word has laid the foundation for its considerable value.

In aristocratic families with background, they will buy a Bible to enlighten their family members.

More importantly, donating a beautiful Bible to churches and priests is also a good way to communicate, and it is also aboveboard and impeccable.

This— Faris slowly stretched out his hands to the exquisite Bible in front of him, but stopped when he was less than an inch away, and turned to the young king with a trace of exploration in his eyes.

Seeing this, Edward nodded slightly with a faint smile.

Soon, Faris picked up the tray of exquisite Bibles, eyes close.

On the cover, the Virgin Mary casts her beautiful eyes on the young Son Jesus who is playing with butterflies. His eyes are full of love and tenderness. The setting sun that falls in the curtain casts golden light in all directions, shining on the face of the Virgin, setting off the Out of infinite maternal love.

Soon, the five of them gently put down the Bible in their hands, as if it was a rare treasure, and their eyes were full of reluctance.

Okay, this is your reward, go down! Edward waved his hand and said to the five people who were full of nostalgia.

The five saluted with gratitude, and quickly left with the Bible in their hands.

Emma, ​​inform Sir Adonis of the Assize Court that I will see him at three o'clock in the afternoon!

After the others left, Edward gave instructions to Emma, ​​the girl secretary who was also guarding the door.

After so many days of observation by Emma, ​​although His Majesty the King's tone today is calm, there is a special meaning in the peace.

No matter how many, Emma was puzzled, walked out of the room with two pairs of long and slender healthy legs, and ordered the other little secretaries to notify.

As a personal secretary, Emma is naturally the secretary-general, so such a small matter can't bother her.

Edward thought about it alone, and suddenly, he stood up suddenly, it was more important to eat.

Sitting on the chair, Edward slowly enjoyed the caviar in front of him, and from time to time dipped the green vegetables before eating, or ate a well-cooked veal steak, and his mood became more and more comfortable.

But at this time, contrary to Edward's mood, Sir Angus Adonis, the chief judge of the circuit court, was in a bad mood at this time.

European courts are basically walls that allow the wind to pass through. As long as you have money, you can get news.

And so did the English court.

After Edward came to the throne, although severe punishment measures were implemented, this atmosphere could not be completely changed.

After all, like other courts, most of the court positions in England are held by noble ladies, and it is difficult not to disclose them.

Therefore, before he was summoned, President Angus had already learned that after the king received the ministers of the Privy Council in the morning, he immediately summoned him.

In this case, nine times out of ten it is bad news.

Under the leadership of the maid, Angus walked step by step, but his mind kept churning, thinking about how to answer.

Angus didn't have much impression of the young king. In the past two years, he was interviewed once a year to report on his work. The king sometimes raised doubts about those who were interested.

Others have nothing to do with him, and they can't impress the king.

The circuit court is actually a measure that England borrowed from the Frankish Kingdom.

The United Kingdom divided the country into six judicial districts, and set up six groups of three judges, requiring them to go to each judicial district for trial every year, which is also the origin of the word circuit.

Tours are divided into two ways: the king's personal tour and the judge's tour.

The circuit court can not only arraign civil lawsuits, but also arraign criminal cases, and even examine local officials and folk customs on behalf of the king.

Of course, as the chief judge, Angus does not need to conduct tours across the country, but needs to summarize all the cases and records of the circuit court, and then report to the king.

In other words, he does not have much right to serve as a bridge between the judge and the king.

However, at ordinary times, he also carries the commission of the king, responsible for monitoring and examining circuit judges in various places.

After a while, Angus was brought to the king's study room. Even though the curtains were drawn, the light was obviously dim, and the atmosphere in the room was gloomy and depressing.

Your Majesty! Angus immediately saw the thin king, bowed his head, and said respectfully.

Sir Adonis, don't be nervous, I just have a question for you!

Edward saw Angus, who was stiff and stooped, with a calm face, and said in a friendly tone.

Yes, Your Majesty! Angus' shoulders trembled, and then he relaxed again, smiling all over his face to face the king's answer.

Okay, let's talk about it! Seeing this appearance, Edward stopped talking and asked questions directly.

Tell me what important cases were heard in the circuit court last year, or what important discoveries were made!

Let's report it a month in advance! It won't trouble you, will it?

Edward sat on a chair covered with blankets, and said with a normal expression.

It's my honor! Your Majesty! Angus said with a serious face, his right hand touching his chest, and bending over.

Afterwards, Angus selected several characteristic and interesting cases for illustration.

His eloquence is very good. He talked about interesting cases as if he had personally experienced them, attracting attention, and even bleating frequently, just like listening to storytelling. This made Edward recall the programs on TV in his previous life.

After talking for nearly half an hour, even if it was about some cases, Edward didn't talk about what he cared about, but he didn't stop it. This kind of immediate sense of sight watching the show is very rare.

Okay, my sir! Edward took a breath, shook his head, and stopped him.

Could it be that all the local officials did not make mistakes?

As he said that, Edward's tone was serious, even gloomy. When Angus heard this sentence, a chill rushed to his brain, and he felt a little bad all over.

Your Majesty, I'm just summarizing this matter! I don't know the specifics!

Although Angus was a little flustered in his heart, on the surface he looked innocent and ignorant, and he shied away without hesitation.

It is true to say that, after all, he is not the specific person in charge, and he has been staying in London, so it is understandable to be deceived.
