Chapter 907: Buckingham Palace
907
Buckingham Palace, the residence of the British royal family.
This is a holy place in the hearts of the entire European aristocracy, and it can even be said to be the holy place of the entire world aristocratic circle, where countless kings of the sonic world have been born, and there are also various legends.
The carriage was parked at the main entrance to Buckingham Palace, and the surrounding square had long been under martial law.
The pool in the center of the square was constantly gushing with fountains, and the birdman made of pure gold in the center looked very conspicuous.
A middle-aged man in a tuxedo walked five steps to the side of the carriage when it stopped, and then grabbed the handle of the door with his white-gloved hand and slowly opened the door.
The sequence of movements is so elegant and perfect, like a textbook.
In the aristocratic circle, what has always complemented the aristocratic culture is the housekeeper culture.
Every nobleman's family must have a housekeeper, regardless of whether the nobleman's family is rich or not.
In the aristocratic circle, the housekeeper is actually equivalent to a part of your identity, a good housekeeper, especially the kind of person whose ancestors have been a housekeeper for a big man for more than a few generations, it is like a black card of Yuntong, as long as you see this housekeeper, people can see your weight.
The housekeepers hired by the rich naturally have a certain inheritance, and the housekeepers hired by the nobles who have no money must be the worst people who specialize in housekeeping work.
The butler who opened the door now, it is said that the ancestors have been serving the British royal family for unknown generations, and began to receive training in various butler skills at a very young age, and this person's son, if nothing else, will also enter Buckingham Palace to study when he becomes an adult, and when he retires one day, then he can become a new butler.
All in all, the butler is a face of the nobles, and he is an existence that can improve his qualifications.
The carriage door opened, and a large group of reporters standing not far away immediately picked up their cameras.
On the 100th birthday of the White Queen, the world's major news media have sent reporters to broadcast the whole process in the United Kingdom, and every dignitary or nobleman who arrives in the United Kingdom will be recorded by these reporters and then spread to all parts of the world.
Prince Pope was the first to get out of the car, then he turned around and took Isabella's men to get out of the car, and after the two got out of the car, Zhao Chunliang was the third to get out of the car, and then half a position behind Isabella, and walked into Buckingham Palace together.
In Buckingham Palace, a faint scent of smoke permeated the entire palace, and maids dressed in exquisite court costumes stood on both sides, welcoming Isabella and Zhao Chunliang.
Led by Prince Pope, Zhao Chunliang and Isabella went upstairs together, and then entered Prince Pope's reception room.
The size of the living room is not large, but it is very elegant and has a strong sense of history.
Zhao Chunliang casually looked around and found a lot of things that were full of vintage.
"It's not a saint. The Book of Rothschild? Zhao Chunliang picked up a book on the bookshelf in surprise and said, "I heard rumors that this book has already sunk to the bottom of the sea along with the Atlantean civilization back then, but I didn't expect to see it here!" ”
"Mr. Wang Jue is also well-informed!" Prince Pope smiled and said, "I also collected it from a good friend. ”
"At present, the person who has the most information about the Atlantean civilization in the world should be the Poseidon clan, Mr. Prince's friend, it seems that it should be the Poseidon clan, right?" Zhao Chunliang said with a smile.
"You even know that? No wonder my grandniece and nephew have taken a fancy to you, you are indeed a learned person. Pope smiled and said, "My friend is from the Poseidon clan, but it is a bit too much to say that the sea god is just a group of people who are the remnants of the Atlantean civilization thousands of years ago, because the Atlantean civilization finally sank to the bottom of the sea, so they changed their surname to Poseidon, which happens to have the same name as the mythical sea god, and has been passed down to the present day, so they were named the sea god family." ”
"St. The Book of Rothschild is said to record the changes in this world over a period of 10,000 years, but I wonder if this is the case? Zhao Chunhao asked curiously, he didn't open the book, because the book was covered by a thin plastic cover, and he couldn't open it with brute force.
"It's a book of prophecy, but it's not necessarily a book of prophecy, if you want to see it, I'll have him sent to you, Isabella, don't stand, sit." Pope said as he motioned for Zhao Chunliang and Isabella to sit down.
"I asked Her Majesty to prepare the black tea that Her Majesty personally picked from the Bolu District last year, now is the time for afternoon tea, after enjoying the perfect afternoon tea, I will send you to the hotel, tonight Her Majesty has prepared a welcome banquet for you, because it is private in nature, so this family banquet can only be attended by the nobles of the British Kingdom, without any political purpose, Isabella You can participate with confidence, this is also a good opportunity to make friends with young talents in the British aristocratic circle, Maybe some of them will be of use to you in the future! Pop laughed.
"I'm really looking forward to tonight's family dinner, I wonder if Her Majesty will be able to attend this family dinner?" Isabella asked.
"She meant to be there, but you also know that a lot of heads of state come to London every day, and sometimes it can be busy." Pope said.
"I understand!!"
After a brief chat, several beautiful maids in maid costumes knocked on the door with black tea and pastries and walked in.
"I've prepared a British pastry for you, you can try more!" Pop greeted Zhao Chunliang and Isabella warmly.
For these aristocrats in Europe, afternoon tea is a very important thing, a good afternoon tea is likely to be able to negotiate a good business, and afternoon tea can show the demeanor of the aristocracy.
Zhao Chunliang is used to drinking tea and eating meat in large chunks, so at the moment, this straight gilt teacup is really a bit flashy for Zhao Chunliang, in Zhao Chunliang's opinion, you might as well give Lao Tzu a bowl.
This black tea is really delicious, Zhao Chunliang drank a big cup after a few sips, and then added a cup to himself without seeing it, as for the desserts on the table, Zhao Chunliang didn't eat much, he didn't like sweet things very much.
Pop was not dissatisfied with Zhao Chunliang's actions, for an old man who was more than a hundred years old, he had seen too many people and things in his life, many people and things, although they would be very important at some specific times, but once time passed, anything and any person would naturally become dispensable.
Isabella looked at Zhao Chunliang dotingly, no matter what Zhao Chunliang in front of her did, Isabella felt that he was so cute and frank.
Isabella back then was also a good boy who paid attention to court etiquette and didn't like vulgar behavior, but now Zhao Chunliang's vulgarity has become cute in his eyes, I have to say that this lover is really out of the West in his eyes.
After a tedious afternoon tea, at about four o'clock in the afternoon, Zhao Chunliang and Isabella took a carriage to the hotel.
This time the carriage was not as good as the previous eight, and only six horses remained.
According to the specifications of the British Kingdom, the queen travels, and the horses pulling the cart are 10, and the prince travels eight, although Isabella is also the queen and can enjoy ten horses, but Zhao Chunliang's identity is somewhat worse, so the British royal family only gave six horses.
But despite this, the six-horse carriage was also a great duke's reliance, and the carriage pulled Zhao Chunliang and Isabella to a six-star hotel that had already been booked, and it was also the best hotel in the whole of England.
The room was booked half a year ago, and now even the most expensive room for more than 100,000 US dollars per night has been fully booked.
Zhao Chunliang and Isabella are not the most expensive rooms in the hotel, but they are the rooms with the most historical taste.
The room was covered with a carpet of fine fur made by Eskimos from Iceland, the head of a huge elk hung on the wall, and a crimson quilt cover with gold trim was placed in the center of the room.
Near the inner wall is a fireplace.
Zhao Chunliang has a natural liking for fireplaces, and he always feels that life is called life when the family sits together in winter and eats hot pot on the fire, so Zhao Chunliang is still satisfied with this room at the moment.
After Zhao Chunliang entered the room, Zhao Chunliang took out a few signal interception devices from his pocket, the purpose of which was naturally to prevent someone from eavesdropping, and at the same time, Zhao Chunliang also completely locked the doors and windows, although he and Isabella did not have any special purpose in coming to the United Kingdom, but the heart of defense is indispensable, not to mention that Zhao Chunliang has offended many countries at the moment, and he is afraid that these countries will plot against him behind his back.
After making sure that the room was safe and sound, Isabella directly pounced on Zhao Chunliang.
It's just that as soon as the man laid out, the doorbell rang.
Zhao Chunliang walked to the door and opened the door, and a black shadow threw himself directly into Zhao Chunliang's arms.
"You're a lot slower than we are." Zhao Chunliang smiled and hugged Wu Mei and said.
"That's no way, you came by carriage, and we got stuck all the way here by car." Wu Mei said helplessly.
"When tonight passes, let's go out and have some fun, England, I've never played here before." Zhao Chunliang said with a smile.
"That's great, but it suffocates me, it's been a day's flight, and my ass hurts!" Wu Mei said excitedly.
"After a day on the plane, your butt hurts, so tonight your ass will probably bloom!" Zhao Chunliang said with a smile.
"Blossoms? Why? Wu Mei asked suspiciously.
Zhao Chunliang smiled evilly, dreamed of a row on Wu Mei's buttocks, and said, "I'll shoot you out of flowers like this at night!" ”
"Uncle, you are so bad, I went to talk to the queen's sister!" Wu Meijiao said angrily, ran to Isabella's side and hugged Isabella and said, "Sister Queen, let's ignore the uncle, let's play ours!" ”
