0332 Tempting conditions
While they were talking, Elizabeth and Hathaway descended the stairs to the backyard of the palace, where the banquet was held.
"Your Majesty!" everyone saluted as Elizabeth saw her.
Elizabeth was supported by Hathaway and walked up to Tang Ding and Xing Muliu, "Welcome to my royal family." ”
"Thank you for your hospitality!"
"I wonder what Mr. Tang's impression of my Great Britain is?"
"That's good. ”
"Okay, Mr. Tang, Miss Xing, let's go inside and talk?" Elizabeth's attitude was very strange, not only Tang Ding and Xing Muliu felt strange, but even the royal children who came also felt the queen's strangeness.
The queen actually invited the Oriental pair to the hall to chat alone?
William wanted to follow, but was blocked by Queen Elizabeth, "William, there are a lot of guests today, you better stay here to accompany everyone." ”
Tang Ding and Xing Muliu followed Elizabeth, who was supported by Hathaway, into the palace.
After Elizabeth sat down, she smiled and said, "Mr. Tang, I must feel very strange, why did I invite Mr. Tang to speak here?"
"It's a little strange that Her Majesty would certainly not be so enthusiastic with others. Tang Ding smiled.
"Hahahaha, in fact, I am still very concerned about my image in front of the public, generally everyone will smile and wave their hands, but people will always be tired, a person's smile is also limited, more smiles to the public, more others may be less, I do rarely laugh at home, because laughing is too tired. ”
Hathaway was surprised at how Grandmother said this today, and that she was still talking to an outsider.
Hathaway can often be with Queen Elizabeth because she rarely laughs, much like Elizabeth at home.
"It seems that Her Majesty's life is also very helpless. ”
"Have something to gain and something to lose!" said Queen Elizabeth, sighing, "Guess why I invited you here?"
"Then I'll make a bold guess, I have never known Your Majesty in my life, and I don't have any intersection, it stands to reason that Your Majesty doesn't say invite me, or you don't know me, and today you specially invited me here, I'm afraid it's for me, right?"
"Mr. Tang is much smarter than I thought, yes, I do want to ask Mr. Tang for a favor, but I also want Mr. Tang to guess what I want Mr. Tang to do for me?"
"My intersection with His Majesty is through William, and I have only known William for ten hours, during this period, I have eaten with him, raced horses, and I happened to win William in horse racing, William should be impressed by my equestrianism, and William invited me today I am afraid that this is the reason, then Her Majesty's request for me must also have nothing to do with horse racing. ”
"Clever, too smart, Mr. Tang, you impress me. I remember that after I ascended the throne in '52, I went to China in '70, and I chatted with your Mao Da all morning, although Mao Da was already old at that time, but his wisdom and wisdom made me admire, he was always far-sighted, he knew the subtleties, you said the last sentence, he knew the next sentence, I have a feeling that Mr. Tang you are a bit like him. ”
Elizabeth has not seen many Chinese, and even fewer have spoken, and most of the people she has seen are at the head of state, so she compares Tang Ding to Mao, not all of which is praise, because she can't give other examples.
Tang Ding did not let Elizabeth's praise stun, "We have an old Chinese saying called praise and killing. The higher you hold it, the heavier it falls. I am not going to accept Her Majesty's request, because I don't have time. ”
Of course, Don Ding was unwilling to accept Elizabeth's request for help, first, he did not have this obligation, and second, he did not owe any favors to the royal family, on the contrary, he had a love for William, which was also a favor owed to him by the royal family.
Now, Queen Elizabeth openly asked herself for help, and let herself guess, even if she couldn't guess, she could completely refuse.
"Mr. Tang, I'm glad I didn't choose the wrong person, I asked you to help, you don't ask what the matter is, you don't ask if the thing is good, you just say you don't help, which shows that Mr. Tang is very strong, well, very good. ”
"Haha, since I'm not going to help, why are you asking?" said Tang Ding with a smile.
"Don't you want to know what benefits our British royal family can bring to you?" said Queen Elizabeth with a smile.
"I'm not short of money, I'm not short of girlfriends, and I can't think of any benefits that His Majesty can promise me that will appeal to me. Tang Ding leaned back and leaned back on the sofa.
"Although I can not give Mr. Tang much benefit, it is definitely enough to make Mr. Tang tempted. ”
"Oh? ”
"Safe, I can provide shelter to Mr. Tang and your girlfriend until I return to China. Of course, in addition, for example, the prize money of the Jockey Club can also go to Mr. Tang, but there is a premise, that is, Mr. Tang must win the race, haha. ”
Elizabeth's words really moved Dondin.
If Tang Ding is the only one himself, then he can refuse Elizabeth without hesitation, he is a person who comes and goes freely, and what he dislikes the most is restraint, and he doesn't like others to arrange his life.
But now Tang Ding has Xing Muliu by his side, and Xing Muliu has no ability to protect himself, the last time he was captured by the blood clan, it was completely because the blood clan had other plans, so Xing Muliu could be unscathed, but this time, if Count Dracula hated himself very much and did whatever it took to do anything, then they would not leave their hands on Xing Muliu, and at that time, Tang Ding was afraid that if he hurt Xing Muliu, he would regret it.
So Elizabeth's words really moved Dondin.
But this made Tang Ding wonder, how did she know this?
"Mr. Tang, what do you think?" said Elizabeth with a smile as she looked at Don Ding.
"Well, you convinced me. Tang Ding is also very direct, and it is the easiest way to talk directly to smart people, "But I want to know how Her Majesty knows about this?"
"Hehe, I thought Mr. Tang could guess it. Elizabeth explained with a smile, "Mr. Tang is really good at offending Viscount Edward, and when I heard that Count Dracula has also arrived, Mr. Tang can still get out of the way, admiration and admiration." ”
"Okay, I said, does Mr. Tang know what the blood clan is most afraid of? Yes, paladin, what the blood clan is most afraid of is our paladin, but the paladin has withered over the years, of course, the blood clan is also not prosperous, but the struggle between the paladin and the blood clan has existed for a long time, and as long as there is a blood clan one day, the paladin will continue to fight against it. ”
"Did you get the news from the Paladin?" asked Dondin.
"You're half right, I did get the news from the Paladin, but not from you. ”
