Chapter 160: The Aging Princess
The presentation was held in the other direction of Dam Square, not far from the National Monument. A platform has been set up there, and there is a banner on it that reads Chinese medicine in Huaxia, which is broad and profound.
There is also a banner at the bottom, all in Dutch. Li Chun estimated that it was a translation of the above Huaxia language, and he couldn't understand it, so it was just a guess.
However, this banner has already attracted a lot of people, and before the time comes, there are already many pedestrians who have stopped here to watch. At nine o'clock, an interpreter made an opening speech in English, and then a Chinese medicine practitioner gave a speech on stage. It is not Li Chun's turn to come to power for such a thing, this is the end of offending the leader, Li Chun understands.
More than an hour had passed, and Li Chun found that someone dressed very formally was talking to Mao Yuyang. Because of the distance, Li Chun couldn't hear what they were talking about. So Li Chun didn't care, but he found that Mao Yuyang was occasionally pointing at him.
This may be a direction that Mao Yuyang pointed to, so Li Chun didn't care, he couldn't go up and rush to find trouble. There was not much time, and the man in a very decent gray suit found Li Chun with a translator, Li Chun was a little confused, he didn't know what was wrong.
The translator was very polite: "May I ask if it's Mr. Li Chun?"
Li Chun nodded a little indifferently: "That's right, I am, is there something wrong?"
The white man in the gray suit smiled and spoke for a while, and then translated: "Hello Mr. Li Chen, this is Mr. Sneijder, the Minister of Guard of Prince Constantine of the Netherlands. Prince Constantine wants to invite you to the palace to say a few words, do you think it's okay?"
The little prince of Holland invited himself to the palace to speak? What kind of rhythm is this? Li Chun almost couldn't believe his ears, even if he was famous, could he still reach the prince's ears?
But the prince of a country invited, how could Li Chun not go.
Li Chun specially reported to Mao Yuyang, and he knew that Mao Yuyang must have known about it. Just now, these two talked to Mao Yuyang for a while, probably talking about looking for themselves.
They followed the two men to the city hall in Amsterdam, and instead of entering, they walked around the side and backwards. Sure enough, there was a side door at the back. Once inside, go up the stairs not far away. Judging from Li Chun's feelings, they should have gone up to the top floor.
But the staircase was still going up, and three more stories up, before they went through a door. It's a not very long corridor, with only six rooms on either side of the corridor.
When Sneider, the Minister of Guards, knocked on a door and got permission, the moment he opened the door, Li Chun felt a little dizzy.
It's a study, but the whole room is decorated with gold. And the famous paintings on the wall, the handmade pure wool carpet on the ground. All the details show the good fortune of the owner of the room, and behind the mahogany desk sits a white man about fifty years old.
This white man is not so handsome, but his face looks very honest. As soon as Li Chun and them came in, the man straightened his tie and stood up, and his just right smile showed that the person was well-educated and strictly trained in etiquette.
The translator smiled and introduced to Li Chun: "This is Prince Konstantin." ”
Huh? This prince is over fifty?
Li Chun was a little surprised, he always thought that since he was called a prince, he was only in his twenties.
Prince Konstantin smiled and shook hands with Li Chun, and in between Prince Konstantin's words, the interpreter was almost doing simultaneous translation: "Hello, Mr. Li Chun, we all have a mutual friend, and he let me know you." ”
Li Chun almost blurted out: "Hugo?"
Prince Konstantin smiled and nodded: "That's right, it's that bastard." He was my instructor when I was studying for an airplane pilot's license, and I heard you saved his dog's life?"
The prince spoke with obvious joking, and Li Chun fell into shock. He just wants to say one thing now, the world is too small. He couldn't have imagined that the captain he saved still knew the prince of the Netherlands.
Prince Konstantin rubbed his hands: "Actually, I need your help with something. But whether I can help or not, I hope that Mr. Li Chun will keep it secret for me and the Dutch royal family. ”
Li Chun nodded, if this was placed in ancient China, there would be no need to keep it secret at all. There is such a secret thing, and after doing it, the emperor will directly slaughter the person, and the dead will be truly kept secret. But Li Chun didn't plan to share this method with the Dutch prince, if he could fight against a country after becoming an immortal, it would not be too late to tell them.
Prince Konstantin was very happy when he saw Li Chun nodding: "Then Mr. Li Chun, please come with me." ”
Saying that, the prince was the first to go out of the door of the study, followed by Li Chun and the translator, and finally Sneijder. They reached the end of the hallway, where there was still a door. Prince Konstantin personally took out the key to open the door, and Li Chun and the interpreter followed. Sneijder, the Minister of Guard, was standing in the doorway, his face facing out.
The interior space is huge, and the decoration is unusually gorgeous. They entered another room, which had a large bed. The bed was covered with a layer of white veil, the white gauze was relatively thick, and it could be seen that there was a person lying inside.
Konstantin turned to look at Li Chun: "No matter what Mr. Li Chun sees in a while, please don't be surprised. In addition, Mr. Li Chun is requested to keep his mouth shut about everything he sees, otherwise the Dutch royal family will note to your government. ”
Although Li Chun hated Konstantin's tone of speech, he still nodded. After all, it is the royal family of a country, and for the sake of face, it is understandable.
Then Konstantin pulled the white veil that covered the bed.
The scene inside made Li Chun also startled, there was a woman lying inside, an abnormally old woman. Her hair was thin and snow-white, and her skin was deeply wrinkled as far as she could see. It seemed that her body was too old to react to anything, and hearing Konstantin's voice only moved her eyelids.
Konstantin said to Li Chun in a voice that barely had any emotion: "The one you see is my wife Lauritian. She was only three years older than me, but she had been suffering from senile disease ten years ago. We've tried everything, but we still can't hold Laurentien's age. You're from the mysterious East, and you've saved Hugo, and I want you to save Laurentien. ”
Although the tone was very flat, Li Chun saw a deep longing in Konstantin's eyes.
