My British Empire

With his head down, the young king seemed to be as excited as the crowd around him.

He was wearing a purple cloak and a tight yellow formal suit. On his head was a crown that symbolized royal power. Big red gemstones were inlaid on the crown, which seemed to show off the power of the king.

On the side, as Edward's fiancée, Her Majesty Mary Queen of Scots, she was wearing a red cloak and a beautiful white long skirt. Although she was only fourteen years old, she was already beautiful enough to move people.

A head of long red hair in a wavy shape, draped over the back, a straight and tender nose, light red lips, and dark blue eyes, showing the beauty of Her Majesty the Queen all the time.

As the king's fiancée, she already understood the royal etiquette, and she also had a bright smile on her face, watching her husband with such attachment and love.

For all this, the nobles naturally saw it in their eyes.

In fact, before this welcome event, the Ministry of Internal Affairs had already sent people to notify the nobles, members of parliament, officials, and various wealthy businessmen in London.

Be sure to stop by Stington Pier to welcome these heroes back from afar.

Of course, as the Adventure Chamber of Commerce sponsoring Sir Hugh Willoughby and Richard Chandler and his party, it was natural to have a mournful face, barely maintaining a smile, and came to the pier to welcome these adventurers.

With the standing of His Majesty, the atmosphere of the whole pier became more and more enthusiastic, and waves of voices poured in like mountains and seas, directly filling Edward's eardrums with pain.

It is estimated that thousands of people came to the entire terminal. The place where the goods were originally unloaded was full of spectators, crowded, shoulder to shoulder, sweating, this is not a joke.

Of course, in order to protect their own safety, as well as the safety of the nobles, the guards and bodyguards have sent a large number of people to guard. It can be said that there is a sentry at five steps, and a guard at ten steps. The defense is tight.

"Really, His Majesty is really enough, just a boatman and sailor, do you need so many ceremonies?"

Among the nobles, an old noble with a gray beard and trembling speech, looked at Chandler and others standing in front of the king, blew his beard and stared, and his tone was very dissatisfied.

In his eyes, only nobles enjoy this honor, and they can only be nobles, because only people of noble blood like them can enjoy the blessing of the king and the cheers of the crowd. For others, it is overstepping and disrespectful the behavior of.

"Your Excellency, calm down, calm down, for the sake of these common people, there is no need to get angry!" A nobleman in his thirties heard this and quickly comforted him, for fear that this person would be directly angered to death. First, it's not very good.

"Besides, this is the meaning of His Majesty the King, let's obey silently!"

Speaking of His Majesty the King, the nobles who had had the same thoughts as the elderly nobles all calmed down and looked at His Majesty the King in front of them, as if nothing had happened just now.

Seeing this, the old aristocrat who was still aggrieved also stopped talking, and turned his head stubbornly, not knowing what he was thinking.

The nobles looked at each other silently, but among the masses, the discussion was one after another, lively?

"Tell me, who is this person! He actually got the audience of His Majesty the King!"

A skinny man looked at Chandler standing on the high platform, envious in his mouth, and the little stars in his eyes couldn't be stopped.

"I don't know, I just heard that they took a boat to find the route to the east. Most of the people were almost dead, and finally came back!"

Beside him, a well-dressed man replied.

"Is it the rumored East where gold is everywhere and everyone wears silk?" "Yes, that's right!"

"Then has he found the route?" The thin man asked a little excitedly.

"Who knows, I probably found it, otherwise how could His Majesty the King meet him?"

This kind of dialogue is not uncommon among the welcoming crowd, and various rumors are born like the wind and drifted away.

Although people speculate that there are various reasons, but in summary there is only one, this man is about to develop.

"You are heroes, my gentlemen. At this moment, the royal family and the whole of England are proud of you. You are the heroes of the whole of England!"

Edward used an emotional tone, and made as much sound as possible from his throat. The smooth and loud voice came out of his throat, and then spread to the entire pier.

At this time, although the hearing was not very accurate, for the onlookers, this was the first time they heard the voice of His Majesty the King, Edward VI who ruled England, Ireland, Wales and Scotland, their monarch.

In this way, thousands of people suddenly fell silent when the sound fell, and then, the crowd roared, and a roar burst out: Long live! Long live!

In such a scene, Edward was still a little excited.

He also stopped talking, quietly waiting for the voice of the crowd to gradually decrease, enjoying this rare moment, a moment of glory that can only be exclusive to a king.

On the other side, Queen Mary, who is as beautiful as a flower bone, has a sweet smile on her face, quietly listening to people's cheers and quietly watching the young man in front of her. This is her future husband, who also brought her from Scotland. The captured monarch will soon be the king who will accompany her to rule many territories.

At this moment, she is proud, emotional, and loving.

"However, my lord, I regret that no route to the East has been found, to your honor and to England!"

Chandler knelt down on one knee, and with the support of the king, he got up logically, bent over, and confided slowly.

"No, sir!" said Edward, denying his self-opinion, his eyes on Chandler's toil-worn countenance and shabby clothes, and said:

"Although you have not fulfilled my entrustment, you have found routes to Moscow and Eastern Europe. Your mission has been completed, and you have shocked the whole of England!"

"You are a great hero, there is no doubt about it!"

His Majesty's words, like a warm current, warmed Chandler's heart, especially His Majesty's praise, which really made him want to cry.

"Mr. Richard Chandler, because of your contribution to the royal family and England, you are hereby awarded a knighthood!"

The minister in charge of ceremonies at the side finally had a chance to show his face. He took a sudden step forward and announced loudly to Chandler.

"Oh! Yes!" Chandler was stunned for a while, and then with a surprised expression on his face, he knelt down on one knee and made an oath:

"Under the witness of God, I and my descendants will uphold the principle of loyalty and swear allegiance to His Majesty the King and his descendants..."

After he finished speaking, Edward took out the jewel-encrusted sword and tapped him on the back lightly with the back of the sword.
