Edward did know from the newspaper that Diana was going to move William and Harry to Hong Kong, but he knew whether it was true or not.
Because yesterday he met with Wei Xiong.
It is said that Wei Xiong has been in the British political arena for five or six years.
Under his money, there are many high-ranking political officials and parliamentarians who are good friends with him, and there are both Labour and Conservative parties.
Many of them were controlled by his hypnosis with dementorship.
Just like John?? Major.
The difference is that John?? Major took the risk of forcibly controlling the last resort, and the others were hypnotized multiple times.
But the result is the same.
And Edward?? Klein is one of them.
When Wei Xiong Wei Xiong knew Edward?? Klein was only a member of parliament at the time, and it was thanks to John that he was able to become Speaker. Major supports.
Interrupted by the Queen, Edward frowned imperceptibly.
Then quickly disappeared: "Diana has divorced the crown prince, although she is still staring at the title of princess, the royal family has no right to interfere where she wants to go." β
Edward saw that Elizabeth II was silent, and his tone was stunned.
After a deep groan, he continued: "But the two princes went to Hong Kong with them, and the minister thought it was a little inappropriate, and it was better to stay in England. Elizabeth II nodded: "I think so too." β
That's what she wants
At this time, Edward's words suddenly changed: "But if Diana insists on doing this, we don't seem to have any reason to stop it." β
Elizabeth II, whose face had just improved, sank again: "What do you mean." β
Edward took the queen's reaction to it: "There is nothing in the Succession Act and other laws that prohibits the prince from living abroad. β
The answer was concise and to the point.
Elizabeth II's face turned ugly again.
She made John before?? Major went to Wei Xiong to use the government's influence to force Wei Xiong to back down, but the result was not satisfactory to her.
And John?? Major didn't seem to want to get involved.
So she didn't say anything more.
After thinking about it, she thought of another way, using the council.
As long as Parliament uses the Inheritance Act and related laws as an excuse to prohibit Diana from taking William and Harry away, Diana will have no choice but to give up.
But now it seems that the parliament does not intend to do so.
A wave of anger immediately surged in my heart, but I couldn't do it.
The House of Commons emerged around the 14th century and has continued to this day. Historically, the House of Commons has been far less powerful than the House of Lords.
To this day, the House of Commons dominates both houses.
Under the Parliament Act 1911, the House of Lords' power to dismiss most parliamentary bills was reduced to the mere ability to delay the passage of bills.
It can be seen that the legislative power of the House of Commons has far surpassed that of the House of Lords.
In addition, the British government also needs to be accountable to the House of Commons, and if the Prime Minister loses the support of the House of Commons, the only outcome is the lower house.
One last point.
The House of Commons also has the power to deliberate, amend and interpret the Succession Act and other laws concerning the interests of the Crown.
Therefore, increasing influence in the House of Commons is more important to the British royal family than the government.
In other words, the royal family cannot fall out with the House of Commons.
Although Edward?? Klein is only the supreme presiding officer of the House of Commons and is required to remain neutral, and does not fully represent the House of Commons.
But the Speaker of the House of Commons has a lot of power.
As the Speaker of the House of Commons is also the Chairman of the House of Commons committees, he will oversee the operation of the House of Commons and arrange for Members to speak during debates.
and has the power to impose sanctions on members who violate the conventions of the meeting.
This is also the reason why she will summon Edward first?? Klein's reason. But now it seems that the speaker of the House of Commons does not intend to participate either.
To know that she can be the head of state of the United Kingdom.
The royal family is also a national symbol of the United Kingdom, but it is unbelievable that the Prime Minister and the Speaker of the House of Commons are faintly biased towards Wei Xiong.
Although she has long known that Wei Xiong has a lot of influence in British politics.
But it was so big that it was completely beyond her expectations, and while she was angry, there was a faint uneasiness in her heart.
She turned to look at Edward?? Klein.
Seeing that the other party lowered his head slightly, he said in a deep voice: "You should know that if the dignity of the royal family is challenged, the entire country of Britain will also be humiliated because of this." β
Edward?? Crane still hung his head.
"You're right, but there are no rules, unless the Legislature makes changes to the Inheritance Act and related laws. β
Amendment to the Inheritance Law and related laws?
Elizabeth II's face was completely gloomy.
Prior to this, some lawmakers had already complained about the benefits and privileges received by the royal family, and the voices of amending the relevant laws have not stopped.
But after all, it's only a minority.
But if the law is really changed to stop Diana, the old topics will definitely be brought up again.
It won't be so easy to suppress it again.
Thinking of this, she secretly gritted her teeth and said, "Just change the law, okay, it's not too early, you go back and rest." β
Edward immediately stood up and saluted: "The minister will retire first." β
After Edward left, Elizabeth II sat as quietly as in the afternoon, but all the dissatisfaction in her heart was expressed on her face.
Originally, she was still relatively optimistic.
She didn't expect it to turn out like this, and now there was only one way in front of her, and that was to summon the other councillors and ask them what they thought.
But at the moment Parliament is in the Conservative majority.
In the party leader, that is, Prime Minister John ?? In the absence of Major from the Coalition, it may not be easy to get the Conservatives to support the royal family.
At this point, she couldn't help but think of Camilla.
If it weren't for that woman, how could things have come to this?
To be honest, she still has a good sense of Diana, no matter her identity, appearance, or personality, Diana is the best candidate for the princess.
But what if Charles doesn't like her?
After sitting for some time, she let out a long sigh, full of helplessness, and then asked someone to call Charles to come to Buckingham Palace.
β¦β¦
On January 3, after New Year's Day, Wei Xiong left the United Kingdom and returned to Hong Kong. Two days later, Diana, William and Harry also arrived in Hong Kong.
The itinerary is not confidential.
Public opinion, which has been surging since the news came out a few days ago, has once again reached a high tide. Just then, the Guardian ran a story.
According to the report, Diana reached an agreement with the royal family.
The two princes will return to England after graduating from primary school and will return to the UK when they are about to enter secondary school, which means that Prince William will return to the UK in two years.
And the younger Prince Harry is only three or four years old.
Just before Hong Kong's return to China, both princes will return to England to study, and there will be no situation where British princes will study in China.
During this period, the safety of the two princes was the responsibility of the Governor's Office.
It was precisely because of this condition that the royal family would reluctantly agree to Diana taking the two princes to move to Hong Kong, otherwise it would be impossible.
The report concluded by saying that the above content came from a person close to the royal family.
After reading this report, the British who were originally skeptical suddenly realized. No wonder this time the royal family will be unusually silent.
As a British colony, Hong Kong has received the slightest bit of public attention.
Even more welcoming.
Because it was Hong Kong people who abducted Diana and the two princes, such an incredible feat has made many Hong Kong people talk about it.
So much so that Diana has not dared to go out since she came to Hong Kong.
Even William and Harry had to go to school with tight security. Of course, it wasn't the Governor's Office that was responsible for protecting William and Harry.
Rather, it is the guard of the lodge.
As The Guardian reported, Diana did make a deal with the royal family, or rather with Charles.
William and Harry's security in Hong Kong is the responsibility of the Governor's Office.
The British Cabinet also issued an order to the Governor's Office after Diana left the UK. However, the actual implementation is somewhat different from the Cabinet's orders.
A special team was quickly set up by the Police Force upon receiving the order.
The team, which consists of a senior inspector, two inspectors and 14 police officers, is responsible for the safety of Prince William and Prince Harry.
But there's a catch, William and Harry live in Bronzechhill.
The police can't get in.
Faced with this situation, Hong Kong Governor Chris Patten really felt helpless, but he had to negotiate with Wei Xiong, and the final result was very simple-
What the task force should do in normal times.
If William and Harry want to go out, they will be notified first, and the police department will send someone no later. In fact, this is also the case in the actual operation later.
But the task force is only responsible for perimeter protection.
Close protection is the responsibility of the lodge's guards.
Truth be told, Wei Xiong has always been deeply skeptical of the capabilities of the Hong Kong police. Besides, his people don't have the turn of others to help him protect him.
will reach an agreement with Patten, purely to give Patten face.
In fact, in addition to what the Guardian reported, Diana and Charles's agreement also includes two points: First, William and Harry cannot change their surnames.
This is something that the royal family must not allow.
The reason why the royal family compromised this time was because they didn't want to make a big deal out of it, after all, Charles was the one who lost in the marriage between Diana and Charles.
If you are too tough, it will inevitably cause dissatisfaction in public opinion.
You must know that when Diana and Charles divorced, the reputation of the royal family was greatly damaged, how could you not take care of your feathers.
There is also because of Wei Xiong's identity.
In the case of any other man, the royal family had several ways to force Diana to dispel this idea, which they considered 'ridiculous'.
But Wei Xiong|It's not something that the royal family can handle at all.
Secondly, William and Harry can only be uncles to Wei Xiong. It may seem that this is only a small issue in terms of title, but it is about the dignity of the royal family.
Imagine the future king of England calling Wei Xiong his father?
It is estimated that everyone will look at the British royal family with a mocking gaze, how can the so-called noble 'British royal family' still have the slightest dignity at all?
After coming to Hong Kong, Diana lived in the Mirror Lake Water Pavilion.
This was mentioned by Diana herself.
In her heart, this is where she and Wei Xiong began, and it has a special meaning for her. And she loved the surroundings of the water pavilion.
Beautiful, natural, and tranquil.
Of course, Wei Xiong will not object, Diana's identity is relatively special, and it is indeed not suitable to live in a mansion like He Chaoqiong and them.
When it comes to identity, I have to say something about Wei Hongdao.
As early as before returning to his hometown to worship his ancestors, Wei Xiong told the daughters about Diana.
Although the women have a lot of opinions about this, they are not as strong as the previous times, after all, Diana's identity cannot be ignored even by He Chaoqiong.
After that, Wei Xiong told Lin Xueli again.
Since Lin Xueli knew, Wei Hongdao naturally knew, and his face darkened on the spot, but he didn't say anything in the end.
The reason is still Diana's identity.
You must know that Diana still retains the title of princess to this day.
Having lived in Hong Kong for decades, although Wei Hongdao has no sense of belonging to the UK, the British royal family still has a little influence on him.
At least not to turn a blind eye.
And Diana's maiden family, the Spencer family, is also a veteran British aristocrat with a deep heritage. If that's all, it's no worse than the Wei family.
So Diana's problem was solved.
It's much simpler than Lin Qingxia at the beginning. In the final analysis, it is a difference in identity, if Lin Qingxia is also from a big family, it may be different.
When returning to her hometown to worship her ancestors, Diana's name was also written into the family tree.
It is the sixteenth room.
Of course, Wei Xiong had already told Diana about this, but she didn't care at all, as long as she could be with Wei Xiong, she could do without anything.
Now that her dream has come true, her heart can calm down.
When she woke up this morning, it was already dawn, Diana sat up and stretched, turned her head to look outside, and it was a sunny and beautiful day.
I couldn't help but smile.
Then I saw her get out of bed, put on her dressing gown, and walk over and open the glass door of the balcony. Suddenly, a cool breeze blew on her face.
It was still relatively cold in Hong Kong in January.
Standing on the balcony, overlooking the beautiful scenery of Mirror Lake, taking a deep breath of the fresh morning air, the whole person has a feeling of relaxation and joy.
It has been more than half a month since I came to Hong Kong.
Her whole being has been in a state of complete relaxation, without thinking about anything, without any worries, and without anyone to disturb her.
Some are just a peace of mind.
In the past, in the UK, even after divorcing Charles and moving out, there was not a day of quiet, both because of media harassment.
also because I miss Wei Xiong.
Of course, the paparazzi in Hong Kong are just as enthusiastic about her, even more enthusiastic than the paparazzi in the UK, and they are surrounded every time they go out.
But maybe it's a change in mentality, and she didn't feel depressed because of it.
At best, I was a little impatient.
At this moment, there was a frolicking sound, and Diana turned her head to see four boys riding bicycles, coming from a distance along the path.
Two of them are officially William and Harry.
The other two are Wei Guanghong and Wei Guangyi.
Children are not as thoughtful as adults, their ideas are simple, and it is easy for them to turn from strangers to good friends.
It's like a foursome chasing on a bicycle.
Diana remembered that it was Saturday and couldn't help but smile slightly. She was also happy to see her two sons having such a good time.
However, such a scenario is rare in the UK.
Because William and Harry not only have to go to school every day, but also learn all kinds of things after school under the education of teachers sent by the royal family.
Maybe music, or art, or etiquette......
And because of the status of the prince, she usually has to maintain a decent demeanor, even after her divorce, this situation has not changed much.
But in fact, she was disgusted by it.
In her opinion, children should look like children, and it is not funny to pretend to be an adult even though they are naΓ―ve?
She will want to divorce, and it has nothing to do with the oppressive court life.
After coming to Hong Kong, William and Harry were a little unaccustomed at first, after all, both the living environment and the school were completely unfamiliar.
She was worried.
Worried about whether William and Harry will be able to adapt.
This worry did not last long, and in just a few days, William and Harry, who had seemed to be in a depressed mood, became cheerful.
The reason is that there are two more playmates, Wei Guanghong and Wei Guangyi.
And gradually revealed the innocence and innocence that children should have, just like now, there is not the slightest impurity in that burst of laughter.
After standing on the balcony for a while, Diana went back to her room to wash up.
It was almost 9 o'clock when she came down from upstairs.
I just saw William and Harry coming in from outside, and immediately scolded with a smile on the corner of his mouth: "Just know how to play, go wash your hands, it's time for breakfast." β
William and Harry hurriedly walked to the bathroom.
During this period, Harry did not forget to stick out his tongue and make faces, which is also the case, if he was seen by Charles like this before, he would at least be reprimanded.
After washing their hands, the two went to the restaurant.
Breakfast was Chinese.
Before coming to Hong Kong, let alone William and Harry, even Diana had never eaten Chinese breakfast, but that didn't stop them from liking.
Compared with the monotonous Shih Tzu breakfast, Chinese food is undoubtedly much richer.
All kinds of buns, all kinds of dumplings, all kinds of side dishes, plus all cooked by the top Chinese masters, you can't even think about it.
However, if you want to eat Chinese food well, you must first learn to hold chopsticks.
This seems to be something that Chinese will be born with, and in the eyes of Westerners, the difficulty does not seem to be much different from high-altitude acrobatics.
So far, the three of them can only barely hold it.
Halfway through breakfast, Diana hesitated and asked, "Are you used to being here?" β
It was the first time she had asked this question.
As soon as the words fell, Harry nodded again and again: "It's good, there is only William in England, and there is no one else to play with me except him." β
Diana said angrily: "I know how to play all day long." β
After speaking, she looked at William, who was much more mature than Harry.
"I feel like it's less inhibitive here, I can do more of what I want to do, and I don't have to be like a puppet anymore. β
