Chapter 727: Who in the World Doesn't Know You?
St. Paul's Cathedral is the second largest domed church in the world, after St. Peter in Rome, and is known as the representative of the classical architecture of the empire on which the sun never sets.
Directly across the street are two cross-shaped buildings, more than 100 meters high. In the middle of the cross tower, there is a dome building with a height of 110 meters.
At the bottom of the dome, the part above the cross tower is a two-story round building. Outside the corridor around the ground floor, there is a circle of circular stone pillars. On the top floor, there is a balcony surrounded by a stone fence where people can stand and enjoy the view of London.
At the top of the dome cover, a large gilded cross is placed, giving people a sense of solemnity and sacredness.
The main faΓ§ade of the church faces west, and in front of the door there is a corridor consisting of six pairs of tall round stone columns. On the herringbone wall above the main entrance, there are carved pictures of St. Paul's missionary work in Damascus.
At both ends of the faΓ§ade building, there are a pair of symmetrical bell towers. In the bell tower in the northwest corner, a group of church bells in harmony hangs, and in the bell tower in the southwest corner, a large bronze bell weighing 17 tons hangs. The largest bronze bell on which the sun never sets, is rung by church staff at 1 o'clock in the middle of the night every day.
Stepping on the twenty-two steps in front of the main entrance of the church, Li Futu and He Caiwei entered the interior of the church.
The vaulted hall of St. Paul's is supported entirely by square stone columns, with rows of long wooden chairs, and the walls and ceiling of the hall are beautifully carved and lavishly decorated, with a front of the pulpit of the priest's mission. The bishop of the Diocese of London was lecturing there at this time.
Li Futu and He Caiwei walked very lightly, did not alarm anyone, and sat down on a bench in the back.
"Are you from the Wa Kingdom, the Bang Country, or the Dragon Country?"
He Caiwei was observing the devout believers sitting in the church and the exquisite decoration of the church hall, when she suddenly heard a voice from beside her, and couldn't help but be startled.
But she quickly turned her head.
The other party spoke English, which was the second language she was familiar with.
"We are from the Dragon Country. β
Her tone was very polite, but when her eyes fell on the man, she couldn't help but be stunned.
Even though the other party was wearing a hat, she still recognized it.
Although he is old, the other party's facial features still look very handsome.
She has seen this face in the news and newspapers more than once.
"You are Prime Minister Mercaro?"
She looked incredulous, a little uncertain.
Li Futu also turned his head when he heard the voice.
"I'm not the prime minister now, so let's call me Mr. Mercarlo. β
The other party smiled slightly, very kind.
Hearing the other party's words, He Caiwei was surprised and delighted, and even a little incoherent.
"You, hello, my boyfriend and I, yes...... It's nice to be able to meet you. β
In the morning, she also went to the parliament building, and talked to Li Futu about the legendary prime minister who fought with the House of Representatives, how could she have imagined that the other party would appear in front of her so unbelievably in the afternoon.
"Hello. β
Because of cultural reasons, even a high-ranking official like Mercarlo, after he stepped down, he didn't have any severance, just like ordinary British people nodded and smiled at He Caiwei and Li Futu.
"I've also been to the Dragon Country, more than once, but it's all because of state affairs, and I've always regretted that I haven't been able to have a good tour there. β
He sighed softly with a look of remembrance in his eyes.
He Caiwei hurriedly said: "Our country must very much welcome you to be a guest again." β
The former British prime minister smiled.
"Thank you. β
Because this is a church, the two sides stopped chatting, and He Caiwei didn't know what to continue to say.
More than twenty minutes later, Mecaro suddenly stood up and walked out of the church.
He Caiwei thought he had left, and her face showed regret.
"I still want to wait until the lecture is over, and then ask him to sign or co-op. β
When he met the British Prime Minister, Li Futu didn't seem to have much mood swings, and chuckled: "Maybe there will be a chance to chase it out now." β
"Forget it. β
He Caiwei shook her head and looked at the door of the church.
"It's lucky enough to have a few words with the legendary prime minister. β
She was about to withdraw her gaze, but to her surprise to find that Mecaro, who had left, had walked back again, but the difference was that there was an extra person beside him, who was also wearing a big hat that covered his head, and his face was a little difficult to see, but it was obviously a girl.
"He's back!"
No need for He Caiwei to remind. Li Futu has also seen it.
Looking at the brilliant blonde hair that was not completely covered by the hat, the corners of his mouth slowly raised a gentle arc.
Mercaro took the girl by the hand and walked back to her seat.
The girl was about to sit down, and her eyes casually glanced this way.
She saw He Caiwei first.
The characteristic black hair and black eyes made her azure blue eyes move slightly, as if there was a resentment, and then, her gaze subconsciously moved to He Caiwei's side.
Suddenly.
A warm and smiling face suddenly broke into her sight.
Subsequently.
The two are facing each other.
The girl who let the prime minister of the empire where the sun never sets go out to greet her in person was stunned.
Mecaro quickly noticed the girl's abnormality, frowned slightly, and was a little puzzled.
His lips moved, and before he could say anything, he saw the girl suddenly break free of her hand and walk towards the couple from the Dragon Kingdom on the side.
At such a close distance, He Caiwei could clearly see the girl's face when she looked up.
The girl's angelic beauty surprised her a little, but her attention was quickly drawn to the girl's strange eyes.
Following the girl's gaze, she looked at the man beside her in a daze.
In her sight, she saw Li Futu raise his hand, put a finger in front of his mouth, and make a silent movement.
The blue eyes trembled, and then He Caiwei took a deep breath when she saw the strange girl, as if suppressing her violently fluctuating emotions, and then shifted her gaze to her.
"Hello, can you give me this position?"
The girl's tone was polite, but there was still an innate nobility, as if she had made such a request for granted.
Mercaro finally couldn't help but shout: "Princess." β
He knows the character of the little princess very well, and under normal circumstances, he would definitely not make such an 'excessive' request to the general public.
The legendary prime minister couldn't help but look suspiciously at the young man of the Dragon Kingdom who he hadn't paid much attention to.
Mecaro's voice was deliberately low, but they were too close to each other, and the other party was standing in front of him, and He Caiwei still heard it clearly.
Princess.
The Prime Minister of England called this girl Princess.
He Caiwei lost her mind for a moment, slowly turned her head, looked at the man next to her, her eyes were in a trance, and at the same time she couldn't help but smile bitterly.
First Athens, then England.
