"It's so ordinary! It's so ordinary! This is Han Xing's highest evaluation of this St. James's Palace. The interior of this palace (diàn) is a line stronger than the terrible façade outside. But to be honest, apart from a pond and garden, which is still pleasing to the eye, the only advantage of the other parts is probably - large, covering a large area!

That's all, but the sheer size of the palace makes it particularly secluded, and the hustle and bustle of the city of London is shut out by its ugly red brick walls. This palace (diàn) is clearly a failed product of the embryonic period of the characteristic English architectural style.

The British tried to express the characteristics of their country in the buildings, but alas, in this time they failed, and the British were characterized by their achievements in industry and machinery, the most typical of which were the Industrial Revolution and the steam engine. So they applied this feature to most of the great buildings.

For example, the famous Big Ben and Tower Bridge in London, as famous British buildings, both of which use industrial and mechanical technology, not to mention the operation of mechanical clocks, there is a complex system of gears and a large number of metal fittings in the whole Big Ben. The deck of Tower Bridge in London can be opened, which was shown in the movie "The Mummy 2".

But this style obviously doesn't match a palace (diàn)! In fact, if they consider adding a bell tower (like a big bell, the kind that rings) to it, like the Brandenburg Gate, surrounded by a few lifelike cherubs with golden hammers, then there will be a little bit of a sight to behold.

As mentioned before, this palace (diàn) is indeed very large, which is his only advantage, but in Han Xing's opinion, this is a disadvantage. Because his feet were tormented by the long journey, and of course, it was mainly because Damn Richard had made the new boots too small.

"Oh God! This hellish place is a little too big, when will I see that His Majesty George! Han Xing stomped his feet on the ground fiercely, trying to relieve the soreness in his toes, and complained bitterly.

"Hanschel, bear with me, the front is it!" Richard smiled and stepped forward to pull Han Xingdao.

They stopped at the edge of a secluded three-story building, which was surrounded by greenery, almost all around with trees and tree-lined paths, and there was even a field in the south.

"This is the place where George III recupes!" Richard opened the way in front of him, and as he stepped forward and buckled the iron knocker on the wooden door.

"Recuperation? Is his (shēn) body bad? Han Xing asked in surprise, to be honest, his knowledge of the British rulers was quite limited, only known about Victoria, Elizabeth, and King Arthur.

"He had a serious illness four years ago and almost died, but he (tǐng) came over. Since then, he's spent most of his time here! Historically, he didn't die! In fact, he will live long after Napoleon's Waterloo! Richard came to Han Xing's ear and explained to him in a low voice.

"George!" Suddenly a shadow (shēn) with a long silver-white wig on his head, wearing a red uniform, with several medals hanging from his mouth, looking (shēn) wide and fat, about forty years old, Richard immediately exclaimed when he saw him, and then gave him a hug.

"I didn't expect the father-son relationship to be good! How intimate! Han Xing was surprised that Richard got along so well with this cheap father. He was not surprised that he called him by his first name, for it was not uncommon for an adult man to call his father by his first name in English, even as children sometimes did.

"Your Majesty!" Han Xing immediately curtsied and said to this George. As a result, both looked at him with a look of surprise, and then Richard painted "You are hopeless!" The table (qíng) covered his face, then looked at the sky and posed with a picture of "I don't know this person!" ".

And His Majesty George showed a happy look after a short period of surprise, and the George, who was more than 200 pounds, almost jumped up, as if he was a child who had gotten candy!

Richard immediately gave this George a "You'd better be restrained!" Only then did George stop, and said with a straight face: "This sir, I'm afraid you have recognized the wrong person!" Even so, his brow-dancing qíng speaks of his joy at being called "Your Majesty."

Han Xing also began to notice that something was wrong, because he found that Richard didn't seem to have much respect for this George, and no matter how good the relationship between father and son was, there would not be a situation where the son could stare at Lao Tzu at will, right?

Richard walked up with a black line on his face, coughed, and introduced Han Xing: "Earl Segard, this is the Prince of Wales, my eldest brother, George?" Hanover (diàn) down! ”

"George, this is my friend, Earl Segaard, come with me to see Your Majesty this time!" Richard had turned to Prince George.

"Oh, I'll go, this oolong is making a big fuss! This guy turned out to be the 'Whale Prince' (whale in English, plural whales, and Welsh pronunciation is similar to whale, this is a homonym meme, satirizing George IV's obesity)! O George IV! ”

Han Xing immediately remembered this guy, there were four kings named George in the Hanover Dynasty, and they came in succession! One, two, three, four, and so on, the one in front of you is the last one. (It is precisely because of the George 4 Company that this era is also called the George Dynasty)

"You foreigners really know how to play! Wouldn't it be awkward for father and son to meet in this way? You call me George, I call you George, even Grandpa is George, is this George's family bucket! Han Xing had no choice but to get up (shēn) in embarrassment, smiling, trying to hide his embarrassment.

The most misunderstood thing for Han Xing was the age difference between George IV and Richard, obviously more than 20 years old, which was the main reason for his misunderstanding.

"Count Segaard is the rightful ruler of Paderborn, but the territory has been illegally usurped by the Duke of Saxony, and since our Majesty is also the Duke of Hanover and Elector of the Holy Roman Empire, he has come to seek justice and support!" As if to divert the subject, Richard immediately made up a long list of excuses.

"Personally, I admire you, Count Segard! If I were the king, I would gladly do you justice! Good luck! The chubby George patted Han Xing on the shoulder and left as if nothing had happened.

"Come on! Except for the current Prince Charles, who is nicknamed the 'Prince of Seventy Years', you are the most tragic! You still have 20 years to survive! By the time you become king, the daylily will already be cold! Han Xing slandered this George (diàn) in his heart, as if this would ease the unhappiness in his heart a little.

"Please note that His Majesty George III, King of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and (ài) Erland, and Elector of the Holy Roman Empire, Duke of Hanover!" Just before the two entered George III's room, the servant pushed open the door for them and announced to them. Of course, this is not only to inform Han Xing of the other party's (shēn), but also to remind George III inside, and the most is to show off.

"Huh?" Inside, on the carved chair with red down cushions, sat an old man with a white wig, who looked very thin and had no outstanding countenance, one of those who could not be found in the crowd. It seems a bit like the name is true, after all, the name 'George' is derived from the ancient Greek word meaning peasant??????

"Richard, my youngest son!" He looked up, looked at Richard and smiled. The smile was kind and ordinary, like the joyful smile of an ordinary old farmer when the harvest was good.

"Father, this is my friend, Count Segard, whom I mentioned to you!" Richard, apparently annoyed by the greetings of His Majesty George III, immediately changed the subject.

During this period, Han Xing searched for information about His Majesty George III in his memory, but found nothing, fortunately, Han Xing had a veritable "royal advisor" and a staff headquarters composed of scientists, so he easily found out almost all the information about this George III.

Frankly, he is a bit verbose and boring, and he is a very ordinary man, but he cares for his children sincerely! In his later years, he suffered from mental illness, which in short, went mad, and (yòu) was caused by the death of his youngest daughter, Princess Amiri.

After he went crazy, he even maintained a "high record" of not sleeping for three consecutive days and talking to himself all the time. And once talked for a long time with an oak tree, which he claimed belonged to the king of Prussia (Frederick the Great?????? (I think this is a mockery of the taciturn and serious old-fashioned Germans!) Otherwise, even a mentally ill person would not have delusional thoughts of a tree as a person, would they? ）

In any case, this His Majesty George was a man who was very (ài) his children, otherwise he would not have gone mad because of the death of his daughter. It is worth mentioning that His Majesty George was known for his fertility and prosperity, and he and his wife had a total of 15 children, 9 sons and 6 daughters.

In fact, he is often compared to his contemporary, the Manchu emperor Qianlong, who ruled for 60 years and had many descendants, even exchanging letters. The old man replied to George III's proposal to establish an embassy in Beijing and to send a permanent ambassador, and he was generally arrogant, and made an argument: "If the British envoy wants to stay in Beijing, he can! But they must follow the customs of the locals and dress according to the way of the Qing Dynasty, not according to the one (tào) of you foreigners! And don't think about leaving when you come, you must start a family in the Qing Dynasty! ”

If you want to say what he thought at the time, it is estimated that it will be: "Is this an ambassador or a hostage-taking!" I'm afraid you don't have a misunderstanding of what I mean! ”

In fact, there is a misunderstanding, at that time, in order to please the old man, the Manchu translator translated George III's letter in an extremely humble tone, and also changed the title of George III to the devil, blessed by God - the British Emperor became the "English big red hair" (I am still a big green hair!). I don't know, I think he's a rooster! ), the King of France (Henry V, Agincourt, who briefly conquered France and was crowned King of France in Reims) and (ài) King of Erland were integrated into the name "Françière Ibernia".

It sounds like the leader of an indigenous tribe can paint a picture of an indigenous chief with red feathers on his head and oil paint on his face!
