Chapter 89: water again



  While Duke Edward was being taken away by the Star Chamber Court, the Earl of Warwick was presiding over the meeting in the Palace of Westminster, a meeting room belonging to the Regency Council.

   "Gentlemen, after a few days of sorting out by several justices of the Star Chamber Court, Mr. Edward Seymour, Duke of Somerset, committed the following crimes:

  Crime of dereliction of duty, crime of connivance, crime of arbitrariness, embezzlement of royal assets, etc.! "

   "So after the deliberations of several justices and several ministers, I hereby issue a decision!"

   "Edward Seymour lifted the title of Duke of Somerset, restored his title of knighthood, and lifted England\'s ruling position and the position of army general. His crimes are currently being further confirmed, so he is hereby detained!"

   Earl of Warwick\'s voice was loud, although his tone was very peaceful, but Earl Boswell could still feel his pride and joy.

   Regardless of whether he agrees or disagrees, Earl Boswell knows that he can only remain silent for now, and now the entire meeting is ruled by the Earl of Warwick.

  After the Earl of Warwick finished speaking, he observed the reactions of the ministers, and the meeting room was silent for a while.

   "I think this judgment is still feasible, but now we need to elect a new ruler. After all, if a flock of sheep doesn\'t have a head sheep, they can\'t outrun a pack of wolves."

   At this time, the bald minister took the lead in expressing his opinion, and it was a shocking opinion.

   "I think, among the people sitting here, His Excellency the Earl of Warwick is the most suitable to be in power here, and only his prestige can compare with the original Duke Edward!"

   After saying what he wanted to say, the bald minister sat down gently, his face beaming with joy and great satisfaction.

   After saying this, the ministers present looked at me and I looked at you, and the atmosphere became more silent.

   "Gentlemen! In my opinion, the establishment of the Consulate was a mistake, and there has never been such an office in the history of England!"

   "No one can control the power of the king, and only the king can truly govern the country!"

   "And our king, His Majesty Edward, is a wise king. We cannot underestimate him because of his age!"

   "So, gentlemen, it\'s time for our King to be in charge!"

   "I propose that His Majesty Edward be allowed to lead England."

  At this time, Bishop Thomas stood up slowly, with the traces of time remaining under his vicissitudes of face, and spoke sentence by sentence in his hoarse voice.

  Although the voice was not loud, the ministers present listened to it word for word. No one expected that Bishop Thomas would drop such an astonishing bomb at this critical moment.

   "This, His Majesty Edward\'s body may be unbearable!"

  After Bishop Thomas finished speaking, the smile on Earl Warwick\'s face froze instantly, and he froze there in embarrassment.

   It was the bald minister who built a ladder for the Earl, alleviating his embarrassment.

   However, his tone was a little weak, and he seemed a little lacking in energy.

   "I think the news of your step has fallen behind. His Majesty the King\'s health has been very good recently, and the doctor hasn\'t been here for half a year!"

   "With His Majesty the King\'s wisdom and martial arts, there is no problem in ruling England!"

   "I agree with the bishop\'s proposal!"

  Brother Thomas retorted without labor, and Earl Boswell stood up directly, directly pointing out the flaws in the bald minister\'s words.

   "Also, my lord minister, please don\'t slander His Majesty Edward at will, and be careful that the Star Chamber Court will sue you for defamation!"

  Finally, Earl Boswell gave a small warning to the bald minister.

  Hearing this, the bald minister smiled resentfully, touched his nose and stopped talking.

  Of course he knew that the Star Chamber Court would not arrest a minister because of this, but it would be quite wrong for him to slander the king in front of everyone.

   "I also think it is very appropriate for His Majesty the King to be in charge. We also know that the local riots are all under the banner of opposing Duke Edward. Now that His Majesty the King is in charge, it will be much easier to suppress it!"

   "So, I also agree with Bishop Thomas\' proposal!"

  The Duke of Houghton also expressed his opinion at this time. The Earl of Warwick\'s behavior towards Baron Seymour\'s downfall made him very unhappy.

   What\'s more, the appearance of powerful ministers is an abominable thing. After all, the Earl of Warwick may be more powerful than Duke Edward at present, and he, the minister of the Regency Council, will definitely stand aside!

  Earl Boswell\'s statement led to a group of ministers who were originally close to Duke Edward. They agreed to remove Duke Edward because Duke Edward blocked the way of making money for local gentlemen and nobles, and may also block their way of getting money.

   They don\'t like the Earl of Warwick very much, so they are still optimistic about the king\'s pro-government.

   Now Duke Holden\'s statement means that the neutral faction is moving closer to Edward. At present, Edward has won seven votes, and he has almost locked in the pro-government.

  The Earl of Warwick glanced at Bishop Thomas, who was sitting there motionless, and weighed the pros and cons in his heart, feeling that his objection would have little effect.

   Shaking his head, the Earl slowly raised his right hand.

   "I also agree with Bishop Thomas\' proposal!"

  The other five ministers who had been looking at the color of the Earl of Warwick saw that the Earl whom they supported agreed, and there was no reason to object.

  Thus, the thirteen ministers present unanimously agreed to Edward\'s proposal for pro-government.

  After today, Edward will appear on the political stage of England under the name of Edward VI.

  Many people don\'t know why Edward is Edward VI. In fact, this is different from the overflow number after the death of our Chinese emperor.

  Everyone knows that Westerners like to use their ancestors\' names when naming their names.

  This has resulted in many kings with overlapping names in the West, so how do local people distinguish their own kings?

  So there is the title Edward VI, which refers to the sixth king named Edward in the history of England, and Westerners are so casual.

  In the original history, John Dudley, who was named Earl of Warwick by Henry VIII in 1546, became a member of the Regency Council in 1547.

  And in 1549, he secretly planned to force the Duke of Somerset to step down and take full control of the government by himself.

   And, like Edward, he made himself Duke of Northumberland in 1551 and ordered the arrest and execution of the Duke of Southomerset in 1552.

  He strictly ordered to act according to the Protestant canons, supported the religious reform, and has been carrying out religious reforms more intense than Duke Edward, but he did not restrict the enclosure.

Historically, before Edward VI died in 1553, he asked Edward to pass the throne to Princess Jane Gray (daughter of Henry VIII\'s sister), who had become his daughter-in-law at this time, but Mary Tudor (Edward\'s sister) Supporters revolted, and he was arrested and executed for treason.

  His fifth son, Robert Dudley, was the Earl of Leicester, a favorite of Queen Elizabeth.
