ps: ask for tickets, ask for subscription
Scenes like this began to be staged all over Spain. Inquisitions, large and small, began to move around to try heresy and maintain the glory of God.
This action has deep political intentions.
Everyone must rember that every action of the governnt is not due to the king's whims or selfishness, but with deep intentions.
Philip II is like this. What he wants is to use a religious trial to maintain his rule, reflect the dignity of the king, and let all the nobles know that Spain has ushered in a new king.
Obviously, tens of thousands of people across the country were arrested at the sa ti, which shocked the whole Spanish atmosphere.
And the Pope, who was far away in Ro, also sent a congratulatory ssage, praising Philip II's behavior of defending God.
In England, after almost a year of adjustnts, the nascent United Kingdom is finally slowly operating.
London, Palace of Westminster, United Kingdom Cabinet.
As the Pri Minister of the United Kingdom, William Selsey sat in his own seat and listened carefully to the discussions of the ministers.
This is a daily cabinet eting, discussing so unresolved proposals and so controversial policies, which need to be resolved together.
As a cabinet, except for the pri minister and the nominal deputy pri minister, all the ministers are responsible for specific matters, and then submit the proposal to the pri minister. After the pri minister discusses it with his staff, if he agrees, he will transfer the docunt to the palace affairs office , the Palace Affairs Office will transfer it to the king, and it can only be implented after the king approves it.
Cabinet under:
Pri Minister and Civilian Leaders: Coordinating the cabinet and leading the cabinet ministers
Minister of War, responsible for communication between the governnt and the army, and national war mobilization.
Minister of the Exchequer: Responsible for governnt budget and taxation.
Minister of the Interior: Lead and command the national police, and is responsible for a series of security affairs, such as fire prevention, riot prevention, etc.

Of course, there is also an enlarged eting, and there are judges of the Supre United Court, the Palace Office, the Army and Navy, and mbers of the major parliants.
In general, the ministers of the other three regions basically only govern in their jurisdictions. Only on December 8th of each year, when they return to London, the cabinet holds an enlarged eting.
The enlarged eting is presided over by the king and the pri minister.
Regional leaders conduct a one-year political report, and then the Pri Minister of the Kingdom will conduct a political report, and regional ministers also need to consult with the cabinet to engage in a tug-of-war for the budget for the coming year.
The central governnt uses finances, and the king uses the army to control major regions.
In this cabinet eting plus the words of the pri minister, there are a total of ten people at a long table, the pri minister sits at the head seat, and the Minister of the Seal who is in charge of supervision sits opposite, and begins to take a pen and record.
"Minister of Trade, how is the tax rate table?" Pri Minister William Selsey glanced at the ministers and asked first.
Tax rate table is the tax basis list for various tax types and goods carried out by the state, and it is the basis for national fiscal taxation.
The Minister of Trade is a skinny man. Because his hair is thin and he wears a wig, he looks a bit sluggish. Obviously, he is very tired these days.
"Your Excellency Pri Minister, due to the refusal of His Majesty the King last ti, our Ministry of Trade has finally obtained His Majesty's approval after a week of recalculation. This is our tax rate table!"
As he spoke, the secretary on the side handed the tax rate table to William. His Excellency the Pri Minister read it, and then passed it on in turn, and all the ministers read it one by one.
"Since this is the case, do you have any objections? If not, please submit it to the Palace Affairs Office!" Your Excellency the Pri Minister glanced at the ministers and said softly.
"We have no objection!" The ministers said in unison.
"In this case, let's start the next topic!" The Pri Minister continued to speak loudly: "His Majesty the King has requested that the cabinet add another minister, the Colonial Minister, to be responsible for the kingdom's external expansion and the colonial movent in the New World. Do you have any objections?"
The ministers looked at each other, discussed in a low voice, and after finding that nothing hard their own interests, they agreed in unison.
"Next topic: Expanding the Irish Colonial Movent!"
"Your Excellency Pri Minister, it seems that the Minister of Ireland has not arrived yet!" The Minister of Finance on the side quickly reminded.
"It's nothing, the Minister of Ireland has sent a ssage and agreed, and now we are asking everyone's opinions!" William glanced at the sowhat irritable Chancellor of the Exchequer, and said loudly.
"However, the Kingdom's finances have been aiding Ireland for a year, and coupled with the construction of national roads throughout the Kingdom, the finances are already overwheld!" The Minister of Finance complained bitterly.
"Also, in terms of civil servants, I haven't prepared so many officials!" As he spoke, he winked at the Minister of Civil Affairs, implying.
"Haha! Sir Anthony, don't worry, our civil service departnt has already started preparations for half a year, which is completely enough for Ireland's next expansion!"
The Minister of Civil Affairs seed to have not seen the hint, and said a word leisurely, completely shattering the hopes of the Minister of Finance.
The other ministers imdiately laughed, and for a mont, the entire eting room was filled with joy.
"Although so, but, Your Excellency Pri Minister, there is really nothing financial can do to postpone it for one year!" Sir Anthony's face beca more bitter, and he looked at Your Excellency Pri Minister pleadingly.
"Sir Anthony, I sympathize with the situation of the Ministry of Finance, but the second step of Ireland's expansion is a policy set by His Majesty the King, please forgive for being powerless!"
Regarding this, William could only look at the Chancellor of the Exchequer sympathetically, and said softly.
So, the chancellor shook his head helplessly, "Alas! It depends on the situation! For the current plan, we can only make loans and borrow debts!"
The rest of the ministers felt sympathy when they saw this picture.
