Hot water was poured on the wooden floor, and when it came into contact with the wet floor, bursts of water vapor instantly evaporated, covering the entire spacious hall in white, and the hairs of the whole person relaxed.
Compared with the humid and slightly cold outdoor temperature, this place is comfortable, which makes people unconsciously relax their minds.
A dozen or so young maids were wearing short jackets, revealing their white and tender arms and thighs. The short jackets were tightly fitted to the body under the moisture in the air.
In the water mist, the youthful maid smiled at Yan Yan, disregarding her own happiness, but step by step scooped out spoonfuls of hot water from the hot water bucket beside her, poured it evenly on the floor, and filled the room. The water vapor that gradually dissipates inside adds strength.
In the steamy room, there are three large bathtubs. Inside the bathtubs, three noblemen in their thirties are lying naked in the bathtubs. Two pretty white and tender maids are kneeling beside them. Just like any other maid.
In the past, the three nobles lying in the bathtub would have already started the action meeting.
But now, the three of them frowned, and there was no desire at all in their hearts. Obviously, their hearts were full of haze at this time.
The Baron of Burnley, the Baron of Herefordshire, has long flaxen hair. Compared with other nobles, he looks extraordinarily quiet.
The Earl of Chester of Cheshire is a young man with an immature face. He looks a little confused, or he has no opinion and follows the crowd.
The remaining one is Baron Barnsley of South Yorkshire. He has long blond hair, an eagle nose, and thin lips. Combined with the gloomy eyes at this time, he is extraordinarily gloomy and frightening.
"I can't go on like this anymore, I'm almost driven crazy by this young king!"
The gloomy Baron Barnsley looked forward and said loudly. After speaking, he turned his eyes to the other two barons with unhappy faces.
"Yes, in the past few years, we have either prohibited us from enclosing land, or made some local reforms, which is very annoying!"
"In my opinion, he is more tossed than his father. If this continues, I will go crazy!"
The young Baron Chester heard Barnsley's complaint, and said in agreement.
"The more important thing is, what kind of exams are still being held to be an official? When will those commoners be qualified to sit on an equal footing with our blue-blooded nobles, and even speak very aggressively!"
As soon as Baron Chester mentioned this, he immediately became interested. His whole body seemed to be inflated. His skin, which had been soaked and flushed, became even more rosy now, and the veins on his neck twitched.
"You said, it is a small mayor who dared to knock on the door of my house, and even sarcastically satirized me, saying to me: Your Excellency, as a nobleman, you should pay attention to the dignity of the nobleman, and you should not do something that violates the nobleman's dignity." A matter of honor!"
Thinking of this, Baron Chester's eyes became sharper.
"Are you saying that I just whipped a few ordinary people who spoke rudely in front of me? As a nobleman, this is my right!"
As he spoke, Baron Chester became resentful.
By the side, Baron Burnley, who was listening quietly with his eyes closed and ears pricked up, slowly opened his eyes and glanced at Baron Chester, with inexplicable emotions flashing in his eyes.
"My baron, don't complain anymore, don't you know? These common people, we have no right to whip the whip anymore, otherwise, the local court will summon us and give us a big embarrassment!"
Baron Barnsley on the side heard the words, and the haze in his eyes was a lot less. Sure enough, with a sympathetic person, the scars in his heart were a lot less.
"The local court is nothing, at most it will embarrass you. If you are completely targeted by the hounds of the star room court, then you will eat something!"
Baron Barnsley sneered and comforted him, but when it came to the Star Chamber Court, Baron Chester immediately fell silent.
The three people in the bathroom immediately felt a chill, a chill that came from the bottom of their hearts.
If the Star Chamber Court is a judicial institution, then the Palace Intelligence Service is a vicious dog, using its own nose to sniff out all kinds of deeds of those nobles and officials, it is simply unbearable.
According to inconsequential statistics, in the past few years, because of the Palace Intelligence Service, the number of nobles who have been arrested into the Star Room Court has reached twelve. Among them, two of them had their titles abolished, and the rest have paid large sums of fines.
And you must know that after the death of Henry VIII, there were only fifty-one hereditary nobles in England, and this number is already terrifying.
Countless officials were arrested in the star room court, and then the whole family was immigrated to Ireland together.
It can be said that the entire English aristocracy is extremely uncomfortable with this situation, which is monitored all the time. and fear.
"Baron Barnsley, do you think it will be counterproductive if we do this?"
"You know, this young king has a very stubborn personality, and he can't play cards according to common sense!"
Baron Burnley, who listened with pricked ears, couldn't help but whispered.
"It's okay, Mr. Baron, let's not be so timid!"
"Send a petition letter to let His Majesty the King understand our situation and dissatisfaction.
Those high-ranking nobles cherished their feathers one by one, fearing that His Majesty the King would be dissatisfied!
Hehe, His Majesty the King is not so strict with us! "
Speaking of being strict, Baron Barnsley emphasized his tone and gritted his teeth.
This kind of half-forced work, how can I be happy in my heart.
Hold up a handful of water with both hands, gently blow a layer of ripples, then spread your hands, and the water falls into the tub again.
Baron Barnsley's words left the two speechless. After being served by the maid, they put on their clothes and walked out of the bathroom.
The three of them chatted from time to time, and with the passage of time, the three of them finally calmed down about making guns, and felt a lot more comfortable.
At this time, the butler ran over, sweating a little on his forehead because of the trot.
"Master, Your Excellency the two barons, the Palace Secretariat sent an invitation, His Majesty the King wants to see you!"
The butler saw the three of them, bent over, and spoke word by word, enunciating clearly.
"What? His Majesty the King wants to see us?"
The three of them said suddenly without a trace of joy in their voices.
