My British Empire

  Chapter 265 Preparation

  ps: The end of the month, ask for tickets, ask for subscription

After accepting this task, Angus looked a little dignified. He actually refused the task sent by the king in his heart, but it was something His Majesty the King personally handed down. It was related to his future, so he couldn't refuse it easily .

   As for fooling around, he doesn't have the guts either, and the Special Operations Division and the huge Blood Blade that popped up recently are not vegetarians either.

   Angus quietly exited the king's office, and then walked away quickly with a sullen expression on his face, as if he had provoked some filth, and was eager to get out.

   And Emma, ​​the secretary near the door, watched him leave suspiciously, and was surprised that he didn't have the usual polite greeting.

   And just when the girl was confused, she received a call from His Majesty the King.

  Seeing this, the girl resisted the doubts in her heart, opened the door gently, bowed her waist, and walked in.

   "Your Majesty—" the girl lowered her head slightly.

   "Go and summon London Mayor William Selsey!"

  Edward looked at the lists full of names in front of him, and when he heard the sound of the door opening, he ordered the girl who had just entered without looking up.

   "Yes—" the girl readily agreed, then turned and left.

   At this time, Mayor William, who was starting another wave of London cleanup activities, heard the king's summons in his office.

   "What did you say? His Majesty the King wants to receive me?" Mayor William asked the young secretary who came in with confusion, his head was a little confused.

   "Yes, Your Excellency, that's what the secretary from the court told me, and she also asked, and asked you to go right now!"

  Facing the mayor's doubts, the young female secretary parted her red lips slightly, and with her legs together, she spoke unhurriedly.

   "Oh! Got it, prepare the carriage right away, I'm going to work!"

   Mayor William moved his stiff neck, looked directly at his secretary, and ordered.

   "Yes, Your Excellency!" Upon hearing the mayor's order, the female secretary readily agreed, and then left the office to start preparations.

  Different from other people who demand a beautiful secretary, Mayor William wants a secretary who is quick-moving and responsible, which is why this scene happened.

  There are no prevarications and doubts, only 'yes' and 'no', simple and fast, easy and pleasant to do things.

   After tidying up his appearance, Mayor William took the recently popular notebook to prevent forgetting what His Majesty ordered, and then walked outside the city government building.

   At this time, a carriage was already waiting outside, he only needed to get on the carriage, and in less than five minutes, he could arrive at Whitehall Palace.

   Soon, under the guidance of the maid, he came to the luxurious office belonging to the king.

   "Your Majesty, please forgive me for being late!" As soon as Mayor William came in, he bent down and performed a knight salute, saying humbly.

   "It's okay, Mr. Mayor, I won't wait long!" Edward shook his head and said.

   This was just a polite remark, neither of them took it seriously.

   Mayor William bowed slightly, and stood aside respectfully, without any trace of disrespect.

   "En!" Although Edward didn't care about these things, he was still satisfied with this attitude. This is the attitude a subordinate should have.

   As for this cultivated talent, the king's expression was much more pleasant.

"In the past few days, migrating families from various counties in England are coming. As the mayor of London, you must be prepared, register your household registration, collect information, and try not to make mistakes! Welcome these people from the place! "

   "Yes, Your Majesty!" Mayor William nodded, and said respectfully: "London sold a lot of luxury houses a few days ago, and I have already started to make preparations!"

  What is a capable minister? This is a capable minister. He thought of it before he gave the order, and started to prepare. How much trouble does it take!

   Sure enough, he was worthy of being a minister in the Elizabethan era. It is not easy to leave a name.

  Looking at the mayor in front of him, Edward couldn't help feeling emotional.

   "Now that you are ready, do it with your heart!"

   "Yes, Your Majesty!" Mayor William agreed softly.

   "Also, at the end of August, London will hold the second official selection examination. This time the scale will be expanded several times. You must cooperate with the Speaker of the Privy Council to make it go smoothly!"

  Edward suddenly thought of another thing. The second official selection exam was about to take place.

  Different from filling only the London City Government and the central government for the first time, the second time is filling the thirty-nine counties of England. The number of people required is even larger, at least expanded several times, to barely meet the demand.

   Moreover, due to the successful holding of the first time, the scale of the number of participants this time must also be unprecedented.

   Therefore, it is far from enough to rely on the central government's hosting. It also needs to be assisted by the London City Government once held to ensure smooth progress.

   "I understand!" Mayor William thought for a moment, and then agreed. There are still several months, and there is plenty of time.

   "I will definitely assist Your Excellency, the Speaker, to ensure the smooth progress of the second official selection exam!"

  After that, Edward chatted with him about the recent changes in London, and by the way, discussed the implementation status of various decrees in London and the improvement plan. In this way, more than an hour passed happily and easily.

  After Mayor William left, Edward stretched himself, lay down on a comfortable recliner, and rested for a while.

   After a while, he got up and was about to call Emma outside the door, asking her to pass on Faris Alexander. Then he felt a little bored in the office again, and suddenly had the idea of ​​going out for a walk.

   Later, this idea expanded infinitely, and he couldn't bear it anymore, so he decided to implement it himself.

  Of course, it’s not for a private visit, Edward said that he is also afraid of death, and he is not brain-dead.

  So, the target of this small visit, he set at the Palace of Westminster, which is the seat of the parliament and the central government, where large-scale ceremonies and events are held.

   "Emma, ​​get ready, let's go out for a walk!"

   Standing up, Edward walked out of the office and said to the surprised girl.

   "Your Majesty, but—" the girl hurriedly prepared to persuade her, a blush suddenly appeared on her face.

   "It's nothing to worry about, don't have any bad thoughts! We just went to the Palace of Westminster to have a look, so you can learn more!"

  Edward stared at the girl's face carefully, saw her cheeks flush suddenly, and made a teasing joke before explaining.

   "Oh—" The girl didn't know whether to be disappointed or relieved, she said "oh" softly, and then began to prepare.
