The Secret Behind Chapter 221
ps: At the end of the month, ask for tickets, ask for subscription
Just like that, Edward's few days of Christmas vacation came to an end.
The time came to January 1, 1550.
Harvest! After getting to know all five Marys, I have a good understanding of my personality and temperament. In a word, I can say: I can make some deep changes!
A relaxed and happy life always goes by very quickly. No, when Edward arrived at the Whitehall Palace indoors in London, he heard Emma, the **** secretary, say that Adler Todd, the general manager of the Royal Bank, asked to see him.
"Oh! I think, dear Mr. Todd will bring me good news, what do you think? Emma."
As soon as he heard it was Adler, Edward knew it was the bank's business.
He smiled, looked at the big-breasted little secretary standing beside him, and said with a hint of teasing in his eyes.
"Your Majesty, how do I know!" Emma seemed embarrassed by his kind eyes, and replied coquettishly.
Immediately, he turned his head and left the office quickly.
Soon, there was a knock on the door.
"Zhi—" A thin figure walked in with a hunched waist, with a Mediterranean hairstyle and golden curly hair on his head, which fit the standard appearance of a Jew.
"Your Majesty, your loyal subject Adler Todd is here to report to you!"
Adler bowed respectfully, took off his hat like an English gentleman, and spoke in English.
Regarding this, Edward felt a little satisfied in his heart. If he didn't know his details, he would definitely think that he was an authentic Englishman.
"En!" Edward heard his words, and just nodded lightly to his words, "Mr. General Manager, Christmas is just after Christmas, I hope to hear some good news!"
Looking at the indifferent expression on His Majesty's face, Adler knew that he had to give something genuine to satisfy him.
I saw Adler with a flattering smile on his face, bowed his waist, slowly approached Edward, and said respectfully: "Your Majesty, thanks to your blessing, as of today, we have converted the thirty-nine counties of England to A branch has been established!"
"Really? This is very good, my sir! I am very satisfied!" For being able to complete his task within a few months, Edward praised without hesitation and nodded with satisfaction.
"Your compliment, this is the best reward for my hard work!" Adler quickly became humble after seeing His Majesty's satisfied expression.
"Well, my sir, you are free, you and your family are free, and no one in England will arrest you again!"
Looking at the Jew in front of him who betrayed his belief and had an English surname, Edward said grandly, exempting their family from being criminals.
To be rewarded for meritorious service is a compulsory course for a monarch. A monarch who can't even reward and punish is unqualified.
Regarding this, Edward had read so many novels in his previous life, so of course he understood the importance of rewards, which is the prerequisite for unlocking a loyal minister.
Hearing that His Majesty the King personally pardoned his family's crimes and returned their freedom, Adler's face flushed a little, and his fingers trembled a few times due to excitement, and then returned to normal under his self-control.
Fortunately, he knew that this was in the palace, otherwise he would really have to look up to the sky and laugh a few times to relieve the excitement in his heart.
Who would have known that as a high-class person in London, the whole family would be turned into prisoners overnight, and even their lives might be in danger at any time.
With anger in his heart, Adler converted and became a Protestant Jew, and was even given a surname. He has been busy for more than a year, just to get rid of the identity of this criminal.
Once his wish comes true today, can he not be excited?
Edward also looked at his patient expression carefully, which was very interesting.
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Adler bent even deeper, and his tone became much more sincere.
"Mr. Todd, this is just your salary for a year. I think the Royal Bank needs you to continue to lead!" Edward leaned his body and said in a friendly tone.
"It's just that your son and daughter should stop believing in Judaism and follow their father!" Before Adler could smile, Edward smiled and said gently.
But this gave him a big slap in the face, the smile on his face slowly froze, and his raised head slowly lowered.
"Yes, Your Majesty, I will follow your instructions!" Adler said in a deep voice, the expression on his face slowly softening.
"En!" Edward looked back at the chair, and softly uttered a syllable in his throat.
"You go down first! Now you have to hurry up and make arrangements for each municipality!" Edward said this lightly, his eyes closed, and he no longer looked at Adler.
After lightly answering 'yes', Adler left the office.
"Goodbye, Secretary Emma!" A smile appeared on Adler's face, and after saying this to Emma who stood up beside him, he left quickly without waiting for her response.
Looking at Mr. Adler who was gradually disappearing before her eyes, Emma felt that he was a little strange, but she didn't know where the strangeness was.
What a headache! Emma rubbed her head, thinking silently in her heart.
Edward opened his eyes after Adler left. How could he be completely at ease about Adler, a Jew who has so much money?
Blood Blade has always regarded Adler as an important target, and round-the-clock surveillance is inevitable, which made him know Adler's intentions.
In his heart, Adler is very repulsive to Protestantism, but he can't change it. He can only let his children continue to believe in Judaism. Anyway, Jews are mainly divided according to matriarchy.
This just proves that Adler has not completely surrendered to himself, and even tried to resist. He must pull his whole family out of Judaism, so as to avoid future troubles.
Edward was pondering slowly in the office, while Adler was sitting in the carriage, galloping fast.
In this scene where no one looked around, he breathed a sigh of relief. The cold wind from the window made him shiver from the cold.
It turned out that his back was already covered with dense sweat, and when the wind blew, his underwear was immediately soaked, and it was naturally chilly.
He quickly closed the window before he came back to his senses.
He exhaled heavily before he slumped on the cushion.
Recalling the conversation with His Majesty the King, he is now a little scared and frightened.
"Could it be that His Majesty the King saw something and beat me up."
Blinking his eyes, Adler thought carefully.
"It seems that I can no longer meet with those people. Be careful, and the life of the family is the most important thing. Today I will ask them to convert!"
Adler patted his beating heart and made a decision.
