The next morning.

As soon as the sky lighted up, Governor Swan was roughly awakened by the guards who were guarding him, forcibly lifted it out of the prison and brought it to the command room.

Lord Beckett was dressed neatly and cleanly, and was playing with a beautiful long sword in his hand.

Beckett's deputy, Mather, stood aside with a cold face.

"Take the Governor." The two guards threw the Governor Swan to the ground, and saluted and turned away.

Governor Swan cursed secretly and stood up with great difficulty.

He looks like he is really terrible.

He was originally a civil servant, and he was frugal every day. How could he have suffered such a crime?

In just a few days of detention, he was no longer a human. He had no wool curly wig on his head, his hand-embroidered jacket was stripped off, and the ring on his fingers was also stroked away, leaving only a seal ring representing his identity.

Although the situation was a little bit miserable, Governor Swan stood with his head held high.

He said coldly to Beckett: "I am the legal overseas governor of the English Empire. You have no right to detain me like this before the Parliament judges me! My governor's rights are granted by Her Majesty the Queen. If you insult me ​​like this, you are insulting Her Majesty the Queen's authority!"

Beckett smiled faintly and continued to play with the sword in his hand.

"This sword is really beautiful, especially this sword box, which is probably more valuable than the sword itself, right?"

Beckett smiled faintly and said, "You spent so much money and thoughts to create all this just to win over Brigadier General James. I'm sorry, he is a former Brigadier General. Do you want to win over him to become your son-in-law?"

Governor Swan said coldly: "This is my private matter."

Beckett smiled and said, "It's a pity that James is not good at doing well. He did not win Elizabeth's heart. A girl as good as Elizabeth was actually abducted by a pirate, which led to Elizabeth becoming a pirate. If you let Elizabeth go, you also violated the law of the king."

Governor Swan said coldly: "I know, so according to the process, you should send me back to Won Dun and let the Parliamentary Court judge me, instead of putting someone with status like me in a dirty prison. Humph, I will definitely report this to the Parliament!"

Beckett smiled and said, "Governor Swan, I know you are very resentful now. I also know that although you are not a noble, your ancestors are, you are in Lunton and in the parliament, and once I send you back to Lunton, you will unite with the people of the parliament to deal with me and pull me off as a civilian, right? Haha, don't deny that politics has always been an exclusive war. You are the real aristocratic class and the children of aristocratic family. Even if I can be promoted to Duke in the future, you will not look at me directly. Your class is full of arrogance towards the common people. You just want to hold the rights in your own hands, but you are unwilling to give the common people a little chance."

Governor Swan sneered, "Don't you know how you climbed into the Lord's position?"

Beckett said lightly: "Of course it's my own efforts."

"You sell opium, slaves, and plunder the people from abroad. Your position as a lord is made of the blood of others!" Governor Swan accused loudly.

But Beckett was not angry, but instead said with a smile: "Tsk tsk, what a hypocritical remark, Governor Swan, when I saw you, I already thought of how much the men who were sitting in the parliament in Lunton looked at me."

He shrugged and put the Broken Water Sword back into the scabbard, "You can continue to despise me, but don't forget that the reason why you can do nothing is to sit in the council and drink tea is because of people like me. You have enjoyed the wealth, money, and capital that I have brought to you, and you still want to scold me as an executioner. Don't you think you are a double standard? All people with double standard are either stupid or arrogant, and most of the time, stupidity and arrogance are closely linked."

"I am now named Lord, which proves that the Queen recognizes me. Moreover, the Queen needs more of this me, for her and for the British Empire, to plunder wealth in the world and fight potential enemies. Some countries have a long history than our British Empire. If you study their history carefully, you will find that they are actually stronger than us. However, the Age of Discovery has created a natural opportunity for us island-type countries. Once those countries wake up, our opportunity will be gone. Therefore, we must take this time to plunder them, attack them, and let them exterminate. If they cannot exterminate, they will not be able to turn over in the next 500 years."

"Once all our potential enemies are weakened by us, our Great British Empire can become the true empire of the sun never set."

"...No." Governor Swan frowned and shook his head, "Our country should not be like this. We...we..."

Beckett smiled faintly, "No wonder you have been the governor of Port Royal for more than ten years, but you have not improved, because your vision is limited. There are only so many resources in this world. Whoever can grab it first will belong to whom, and whoever has resources and wealth will be a powerful empire, and whoever has the right to speak."

"But, in this case, wouldn't our Great British Empire make enemies all over the world?" Governor Swan said with a frown.

"Haha!" Beckett laughed and said, "Make an enemy? If you are not strong, you will have no enemies? No, as a country, you will always have enemies. When you are not strong, someone will take the opportunity to bully you. Do you want to rely on politeness and negotiation to avoid enemies? This is simply a joke. The relationship between people can also maintain a state of civilization, but the relationship between countries is naked oppression. When we are strong, we have the right to speak. As for those areas that have been plundered and colonized by us... Don't worry, as long as our rule there can last for 100 years, then in 100 years, the descendants of the colonized will depend on our strength, and they will even forget their ancestors."

Governor Swan was speechless for a moment.

He didn't think that people like Beckett were correct, but he did feel that his vision and cognition were not as good as Beckett.

Beckett could not do it without some real ability to become a director of Dongyindu Trading Company and a lord whom the queen had no real ability.
