On August 25, Arthur met with the northern nobles who were willing to surrender at Regent's Park Villa.

There is no secret, everything is aboveboard, Arthur just wants to let others know that the Northern Senator is now his.

As soon as they met, McIntosh and others expressed their sincerity to Arthur. They brought valuable gifts in exchange for Arthur's care.

Arthur just glanced at the gifts on the table and was not interested.

"From now on, everyone will be our own people."

"Yes, yes, we will definitely support you, His Highness the Fourth Prince..."

"Everyone can say nice things, but I pay more attention to practical actions."

Arthur's eyes swept across the faces of McIntosh and others, and suddenly said: "Join the Labor Party."

“Join the Labor Party?!”

The eyes of McIntosh and others suddenly widened, shocked and full of confusion.

Joining the Labor Party means that they have to completely break away from the original northern party. This is clearly a traitor!

If they become traitors, other northern MPs who have not joined the Labor Party will definitely regard them as enemies!

The northern MPs who were originally united are no longer united!

McIntosh and others just wanted to stay in London, but they had never considered leaving the northern parties and joining the Labor Party...

"What, you don't want to?"

Arthur raised his hand and pointed at the door: "The door is right there, please help yourself."

Gawain, who was the representative of McIntosh and others at the moment, said quickly: "Your Highness, wait a moment! Please give us some time to discuss!"

"Can."

Arthur nodded, stood up and walked out of the living room.

After he left, Gawain turned around, looked at the hesitant McIntosh and others, frowned and said: "Didn't we all agree? Your Highness's request must be agreed, why did you suddenly change your mind?"

"well..."

McIntosh sighed and said: "Russell, you know the consequences of joining the Labor Party. In the past, no matter what difficulties we encountered in the north, we could rely on unity to get through it. The north is our base camp. If we join the Labor Party,

We can never go back!"

"If you want to set foot in London, if you want to enter the core circle of politics and economy, you must pay a price." Gao Wen said coldly: "This is an opportunity to change your destiny! Once you miss it, it will be years before you want to set foot in London again.

!”

McIntosh and others knew these truths, and they had also made psychological preparations.

But when the time comes, there will always be hesitation.

Gawain felt that he had done his best.

The Benjamin family has been developing in Edinburgh for many years and has long been familiar with the northern nobles and parliamentarians. For example, Senator Mackintosh is an old friend of Gawain's father. The two families have been in contact for hundreds of years. It is precisely because of this

For the sake of high-level relationship, Gawain would give repeated admonitions.

Who doesn’t have some self-interest?

Gawain is not a saint, and he joins the Knights of the Round Table not to be a saint, but for revenge.

Now the eldest prince is dead, but his revenge has not been avenged. Fortunately, the councilors who killed his father are still alive, and Gawain wants to kill them with his own hands.

Gawain attaches great importance to family values, and he also attaches great importance to relationships. It should be said that children who grow up in a harmonious family will value relationships.

Even if it is a stone, it should be kept warm after so many years.

Gawain has paved the way for them, it's up to them how to choose.

Setting foot in London means that they enter the inner circle, develop for more than ten or twenty years, become real upper-class people, and maybe even run for prime minister...

No matter how you look at it, London is more suitable for development than the cold north.

For the sake of the family, for the sake of the descendants...

After a long period of thinking, McIntosh made a choice. He decided to stay in London and join the Labor Party.

The future of the Labor Party is obvious to all, and the rise of the Labor Party is inevitable. The earlier you join, the more benefits you will get.

McIntosh was willing to stay, but several people left. They were accustomed to life in the north, and if they were asked to abandon the north and settle in the south, they would be a little uncomfortable.

The north is their comfort zone, where even if they are not rich, they are not in poverty. There are very few people who have the courage to break out of their comfort zone, and even fewer are successful.

Including Gowan, there were only 8 people left in the room. They were the only ones left in the huge northern party. Others did not agree to join the Labor Party.

Entrusting the maid to recall Arthur, Gawain led Mackintosh and the remaining eight people to agree to the conditions for joining the Labor Party. Arthur asked the maid to bring champagne to welcome them to join.

This news quickly reached Ma Wei's ears.

There are 22 northern MPs, and only 8 remain, about one-third.

This number was not beyond his expectation. For northern MPs, joining the Labor Party is a challenge, and it requires putting down their dignity.

"Brother, what about those nobles who don't plan to join the Labor Party but want to stay in London?" Levin asked: "Are we going to drive them back to the north?"

"Don't worry about it." Ma Wei said: "People from the Conservative Party and the Liberal Party will deal with them. Leaving is actually the best choice."

Leaving London means that you will not be swept away by future storms, at least you are safe.

But if they are determined to stay, they will definitely be affected. The nobles who are willing to take risks to stay are enough to prove their ambition. Their unwillingness to join the Labor Party also shows that they cannot be tamed. In this case...

Don't blame Ma Wei for his cruel methods.

After getting rid of the northern MPs, the next step is the Conservative Party. Unlike the northern MPs, the Conservative Party is deeply rooted in London, and it is not easy to shake their position.

These old nobles are the real upper class. They live a luxurious life and learn the court etiquette passed down from their ancestors. Each of them is powerful.

In their eyes, the northern aristocrats were not classy. They were bumpkins from remote areas who had a little money but not enough class and taste.

In the eyes of the London aristocracy, everything except London is the countryside.

Arrogance from superiors.

This is the fundamental reason for the bad relationship between the Liberal Party and the Conservative Party. The Conservative Party is inherently arrogant, incompatible with the emerging Liberal Party, and despises each other.

If we only talk about wealth, the Liberal Party may be richer than the Conservative Party, but when it comes to influence and land, the Conservative Party is far better than the Liberal Party.

The Liberal Party is mostly businessmen and there are very few nobles, while the Conservative Party is mostly nobles and owns a lot of land.

In the industrial age, technology was the most valuable, and land in the manor economy seemed cheap, especially in areas far away from London. The price of land was so cheap that you could buy a hill from the lord for only a few hundred gold pounds.

To deal with these old-era aristocrats, coercion and intimidation are of no use. Unlike the northern congressmen, they are very close to the church and are VIPs of the church. Even the Liberal Party does not dare to let the Kore Gang go too far.

It is indeed not easy to find the 'dog' within the Conservative Party.

Just as Mavey was thinking about the method, Yunia suddenly ran over holding a drawing book.

"Dad, dad, look!"

"What did you draw?"

"Avalon!"

Taking the drawing book, Ma Wei found that Yunia had drawn the God's Blessed Island with a pencil on the paper. The painting was a bit rough and the lines were messy, but the main subject was very prominent, such as the holy swords that were inserted all over the island and what Merlin had become.

That plum tree.

Some are like children's graffiti, but more detailed than ordinary graffiti.

"The painting is good." Ma Wei picked up his daughter and asked with a smile: "Why did you suddenly think of painting?"

"Because it's boring..."

Yunia pursed her lips and said: "Dad, since you became the Prime Minister, you haven't gone out to play much. You have stayed in this shabby house all day..."

Broken house...

Ma Wei was a little dumbfounded. I don’t know how many people want to move into this dilapidated house at No. 9 Downing Street.

But Yunia is right, staying here for too long would be unfair to Yunia.

"When I figure out a way, I'll take you out to play."

"Great!"

Yunia laughed happily, and then became a little confused: "Dad, what are you thinking about?"

"How do you want to get those conservative nobles to defect to the fourth prince, and at the same time screen out the unstable elements inside."

Yunia imitated Ma Wei's movements, lowered her head and meditated. After a long time, she suddenly raised her head and said, "We can imitate Vivian and the others!"

"Learn...mirror demon? What do you mean?"

"Vivian said that no one can pull out the holy sword that seals Merlin, except the destined one. This is an excellent gimmick!" Yunia said with a wink: "We can make the fourth prince into a destined one.

People, make a holy sword that no one can pull out, and create momentum for the Fourth Prince!"

Ma Wei's eyes lit up and he felt enlightened.

Yunia reminded him, why not make a holy sword that cannot be pulled out in reality, attract the attention of London citizens, and then shape the fourth prince into the son of destiny?

The Church of the Three Goddesses of Destiny...isn't it about fate?
