   "Your Majesty, according to our analysis, this conflict is likely to evolve into a major conflict throughout Scotland!"

   "At this time, both sides are gathering their forces for the final decisive battle. I think England must be prepared at this time!"

  Guy Ham, as the leader of the Dark Blade, came to Hampton Court Palace for a rare time to report to Edward himself.

  The young king watched Guy Ham's long beard being combed neatly, and his complexion changed from the previous waxy yellow color. His slender body looked solid and powerful, giving off a mature and steady feeling.

   Seeing His Majesty the King's gaze scanning his body, Guy couldn't help standing up straight, making himself look more majestic.

   "I see, Guy, this news is timely!"

  Edward put away his scrutiny, looked at the respectful Guy Ham, and nodded, expressing his satisfaction.

   "From now on, immediately focus Blood Blade's attention on Scotland, and closely monitor this event that may cause a full-scale conflict in Scotland, and don't let it get out of our sight!"

  When Edward heard about this Scottish incident, let alone how upset he was.

   Just finished receiving Knight Alexander and Marquis William, and assessed that the militia in England has reached its limit and can no longer be recruited.

  However, who knows, Scotland is about to have a civil war throughout Scotland, a civil war between the aristocratic group and the church.

   In this regard, the young king knew that this is a good opportunity to sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight, but if you want to stop the two injured tigers, you have to be stronger than them, or you will just deliver food!

   Without militias that can be used for free, you can only spend money to hire troops.

  Thinking that the little money he had accumulated in his pocket was about to fly away, suppressing the discomfort in his heart, Edward calmly said to the leader of Blood Blade, Guyham:

   "Next, I will allocate a sum of money to Blood Blade. This is your special fund!"

   As he spoke, Edward's face gradually became serious, and he looked directly into Guy Ham's deep eyes, warning him directly.

   "This money, whether it is a bribe or an assassination, must not be used for other purposes, otherwise you will understand the consequences!"

   Seeing His Majesty the King's solemn explanation, Guy Ham's heart tightened, and he agreed decisively.

   "Yes, Your Majesty!"

   Could it be that His Majesty the King got some gossip that someone in Blood Blade was greedy for ink? This decision affects my image before His Majesty the King.

  Guy thought silently in his heart. He decided that after returning, he would conduct a large-scale anti-corruption investigation on Blood Blade, and definitely find out the guy who affected his image.

   "I promise, I will definitely let this money go where it should go!"

  Seeing Guy Ham's assurance, Edward regained his original gentle face, and the atmosphere in the whole room suddenly became active.

   "I think, after this time, many people in Blood Blade will be promoted to knights!"

   "Yes, Your Majesty!" Hearing this relaxed topic, Guy Ham also smiled.

   "As far as I know, there are several people who are about to meet the requirements. I think they must be extremely happy!"

  Hearing Guy Ham say this, Edward suddenly felt sour. Needless to say, he also knew that Guy Ham was definitely not one of them!

   Seeing this, Edward has no good solution. The regulations are like this. If the credit cannot be achieved, if he uses his rights to forcibly promote him, the Blood Blade organization will basically be abolished.

  So, Edward could only give him a persistent smile.

  Afterwards, he talked about the problems that had arisen from Blood Blade in the past few months, and Guy Ham retreated consciously.

  As for the other information obtained, Blood Blade will sort it out every week and put it in his office for him to review.

   And this incident is very important, so he came to meet His Majesty the King in person, which can be regarded as finding a sense of existence for himself!

  For a close minister like him, His Majesty's trust is the guarantee of his prosperity and wealth, so it is very important to leave a good impression on the king!

  Guy Ham slowly left the palace, got into the carriage, and thought about the scale of this anti-corruption operation in his mind, and seized some power by the way. As far as he is the leader and the Palace Intelligence Service, his power is still too small.

   "Emma—"

  After Guy left, Edward whispered to the door.

   "Yes, Your Majesty!"

   Soon, there was the sound of the girl running, and a few seconds later, the girl came to Edward and answered with some panting.

  Looking at the plump plumpness of the girl, Edward swallowed a mouthful of saliva, squinted his eyes and took a closer look, and then with a serious look, he ordered:

   "Go and call John Carrile, I have something to see him in a while!"

  John Carrile is a merchant of the royal family, and it was he who arranged for Henry VIII to borrow money from Italian merchants.

   A while ago, he followed Princess Mary to Spain and traveled to Spain and the Mediterranean region for England's goods, which made a lot of money.

  So, when he thought of hiring Italian and German mercenaries, Edward thought of this well-connected royal businessman.

   "By the way, before that, you called Luna over first!"

   Just as Emma was about to turn around and leave, Edward added one last sentence.

  Hearing this, the girl turned her head, looked at him inexplicably, and left quickly this time.

Soon, Luna, dressed in a mature attire, walked in, first saluted respectfully, and then stood in front of Edward, with her long legs tightly together, matching the long black socks, she looked very handsome. is sexy.

   "Ahem!" Edward glanced at her for a few moments, and then turned his eyes back to her face inadvertently. Seeing her seductive smile revealed in her seriousness, he immediately sat upright and asked solemnly:

   "Luna, as the chief financial officer of the royal family, how much cash does the royal family still have at their disposal?"

  When it came to her supervisor, a trace of doubt appeared on Luna's face, she thought for a while, looked directly at Edward, weighed and said:

   "Your Majesty, at present, in addition to those expenses, the royal family still has 80,000 pounds left at their disposal!"

   "Eighty thousand pounds? Too little!"

  When he heard 80,000 pounds, Edward was very disappointed.

   You know, after the suppression of the mob, the entire cost, excluding the compensation, reached 60,000 pounds.

  And now if mercenaries are recruited, then this is a terrible number.

   "Luna, a war is coming. In the next month, you should try your best to help me raise funds. This is my task for you!"
