My British Empire

ps: Qixi Festival! Poor thing, I'm still coding, I'm asking for a ticket!

"The commander of the Cavalry Company of the Guards is Knight Baldwin!"

After finishing speaking, Edward turned his eyes to Barron, who was at the front of the team, with admiration in his eyes.

In this regard, Barron felt that it was like a pie in the world. God suddenly fell in love with him, and he couldn't accept it in his mind for a while.

As the senior officer of the entire Guards, among the twenty or so knights, he was neither the one with the deepest background, the widest network, nor the most meritorious service, which surprised everyone.

Regarding this, Edward glanced at the dissatisfied man, and said, "Cavalier Baldwin is not only brave in battle, but he is also indomitable, and his riding skills are also very good. He is qualified for the position of cavalry company commander!"

Seeing the appearance of His Majesty the King endorsing him, everyone put aside their envy and congratulated him with smiles and kindness, and Barron also responded one by one.

Afterwards, he stepped out and knelt in front of Edward on one knee, his rough face was full of excitement, and tears were about to come out of his eyes.

"It is my greatest honor, Baron Baldwin, to serve you!" The excitement in the voice was felt by everyone present.

For this, some knights silently despise it, but they really know how to flatter.

But Edward admired it very much. He felt that this was a feeling, which just proved that he was a person who knew how to be grateful.

The fact that Baron Baldwin was selected was only one of the three nominated by Knight Alexander, and he was not even valued by Knight Alexander, just as a bonus.

But Edward took a fancy to him, especially his civilian background, which was very rare at the time.

Those who can become knights are basically from knight families or noble families. There are very few nobles from commoner backgrounds, even fewer than pandas.

After all, there are very few civilians who can afford horses and armor.

His background allowed him to win this opportunity.

In the guard army, what is needed is balance, and it is not good for one family to dominate.

"Crack!" Edward clapped his hands, and immediately, a group of maids filed out, bringing plates of delicious food.

Immediately afterwards, a group of soldiers brought barrels of wine, and the aroma was overflowing.

"Everyone, today is a happy day, let's have a toast!" Edward raised his glass with a smile on his face, and said to the crowd who couldn't help swallowing.

"Bless Your Majesty—" Everyone held up their wine glasses and saluted Edward.

Soon, the atmosphere became lively, and you pushed me around, extremely cheerful.

The banquet lasted until the evening, when all the soldiers were carried down one by one by the soldiers alone and drunk, while Edward only blushed slightly, and so did the Alexander knight beside him.

They don't want to drink, no one dares to force them, so only the two of them are sober in the arena.

Looking at the people who were being carried down by the soldiers full of nonsense, Edward turned around with a smile, and said to Alexander: "Mr. Knight, today I am just giving an overview. I will send someone to tell you the details tomorrow. !"

"Yes, Your Majesty!" Alexander nodded slightly.

"The rest is up to you, my knight!!"

Edward leaned back on the chair and said lazily.

Knight Alexander stayed aside, nodding silently.

"Don't worry! Your Majesty the King!"

"Okay! I'll leave it to you. I hope this is a good start!" Edward stood up all of a sudden, walked slowly towards the exit, and said to Knight Alexander behind him.

Knight Alexander looked at the gradually departing king with melancholy eyes.

Riding a horse and leading his guards, Edward rushed to Hampton Court Palace not far away.

When he came back, the entire sky had become pitch black, and there were even a few silver lines flashing in the sky, which indicated that it was going to rain.

The weather in England is so naughty, Edward couldn't help but shook his head and laughed.

After dismounting, Edward hurried to his bedroom, and the maid Lucy had already followed.

"Your Majesty, it's time for dinner. Her Majesty the Queen Mother, Her Majesty the Princess, and Her Majesty the Queen are waiting for you!"

Lucy twisted her waist and followed her steps steadily, keeping her eyes on Edward's face, and said softly.

"I know, I'm going to take a shower first, I feel extremely uncomfortable!" Edward wrinkled his nose, feeling that his body was full of the unpleasant smell of sweat and alcohol, and said in a disgusted tone.

"Yes, Your Majesty!" Lucy twitched her nose, wrinkled her pretty face, and nodded in approval.

"You go and prepare hot water!" "You go and prepare His Majesty's clothes!" "You go and prepare soap"...

Lucy turned around, with a stern face, and ordered the maids of all colors who followed her step by step, meticulously.

Regarding Lucy's order, the maids quickly nodded in agreement, and then left to prepare.

Edward was no stranger to this. As His Majesty's personal maid, her status was naturally higher than that of the maid, and the management right was naturally in her hands.

Edward stretched out his hand, made Lucy bend down, took off his cumbersome and gorgeous clothes step by step, and changed into comfortable pajamas. After that, the bathroom was ready.

The bathtub was steaming hot, and the water was sprinkled with red rose petals. Several young and beautiful maids stood beside them, some sprinkled flowers, some poured hot water into the bathtub from time to time, and some held soap Yes, there are about a dozen of them holding towels and changing clothes, obeying orders in the bathroom.

Edward took off his pajamas, appeared naked in the eyes of many maids, and then stepped into the bathtub, soaked in hot water, relaxed instantly, and his eyelids almost closed!

Lucy picked up the soap, applied it on his body, rubbed it with her jade hands, and the maid behind her massaged his shoulders with her delicate hands, and the comfort almost melted away.

Regarding the Middle Ages, people's inherent impression is that Europeans did not take a bath in the Middle Ages. This was only a phenomenon after the Black Death, that is, after the fourteenth century.

On a trip to Italy via Switzerland, the sixteenth-century thinker Michel Montaigne wrote in his diary: "Baden, small city, in a nearby town... along a river... ...there are some baths. There are two or three open public baths, which are only used by the poor..."

The level of openness of Europeans has been passed down for a long time, and it is also common for men and women to bathe together in public bathrooms.

Of course, bathing is still more popular in German and Nordic regions.

At present, only Edward in England dares to take a bath so indifferently. He also led Princess Mary, Princess Elizabeth, and little Lolita so that they no longer fear bathing.

After spending half an hour soaking in the bath, Edward walked out of the bathroom with great energy and came to the restaurant.

And Elizabeth, Little Lolita, and Queen Mary were already sitting there, and the three of them watched his arrival eagerly, looking very hungry!
