My King, could I ask you to add a paragraph to your proposed Edict, reading as such:
For the purpose of this Edict, an individual nobleman, escorted only by his bodyguards, is not considered to be an army.
Some may argue, for pure political gain of course, that a single chevalier and his trusted guards is "an army". I'm sure this isn't your intention, mon Roi, but not everybody is as noble as you.
I think it's best to prevent all misunderstandings. We don't want an Edict that could be interpreted as an interdiction for the noblemen living in Bretagne to come to Paris to attend the meetings of the Conseil.
