Chapter 259: Lawyer Jackson

The British Empire consists of several large islands and many small islands, both in terms of territory and population, is second to none in the entire Western world, in addition to the superior conditions of these foundations, after years of reform and development, the British Empire has made impressive achievements in various fields such as military, culture, industry, commerce and so on, so the British Empire can be called the top superpower in the entire Western world. Therefore, it is not easy to manage such a large and powerful country.

In the British Empire, power is distributed in a pyramid shape, and the monarch at the top of the tower is naturally the monarch of the empire, the monarch can be a king or a queen, once he ascends the throne, except for natural death or voluntary abdication, otherwise it is lifelong. The power of the queen or king is very large, and theoretically the monarch can make any decision he wants, and he can also veto any proposal that he does not approve. Under the queen is the parliament of the empire, the members of the royal family and nobles control the imperial parliament, so as to achieve the goal of controlling the entire empire, legally speaking, the imperial parliament is the highest legislative body of the entire empire, all the provisions of the bill, including the annual budget expenditure must be discussed and approved by the parliament, except for the selection of members, the other parts are very similar to the parliamentary role of modern Western countries.

Further down the parliament is the central cabinet of the empire, which is responsible for the day-to-day operation of the entire British Empire, that is, the execution of the so-called line, of course, it has also been said that the cabinet of the British Empire is more like a puppet body, because unless the cabinet members themselves are members of the royal family of the empire, like the Duke of Jackson, the cabinet is only the faithful executor of the queen's orders.

The Queen, Parliament, and Cabinet constitute the main power structure of the British Empire, and although there is a shadow of the modern Western parliamentary system, there is a bug that can override the law, so at most it is only like a god.

So as the monarch of the British Empire, he is not only a symbol of the empire, nor only like the modern Western constitutional monarchy, the monarch only plays a ceremonial role, the monarch of the British Empire has the supreme and huge power, what kind of person sits in this position, will determine where the British Empire will develop, the citizens of the empire know this, the officials of the empire know this, the royal family and nobles of the empire also know this, and Her Majesty knows even more.

Originally, Prince William was the best candidate for the next imperial monarch, he had the courage to assist Her Majesty in handling many official duties for many years, and his ability to show was also recognized by everyone, in the hearts of many imperial people, although the prince is still only a prince, but sooner or later he will become the king of the empire. It's a pity that fate makes people, when the queen was critically ill, Prince William, who had always been strong, also suddenly fell ill, and his condition developed faster than Her Majesty's, Her Majesty was still able to survive, but he died, plus although the queen seems to be recovering, but after all, she is old, it is difficult to say whether the current state is back to light, so the new crown prince has become a headache for the empire.

Prince Charles is the second in line to the throne under the laws of the empire, but most of the royal nobles, and even the ordinary people of the empire do not want him to become the new monarch, so if it is further postponed, Prince William's son is the first choice, but according to the previous law of succession to the throne, the succession to the throne cannot skip the succession relationship, unless the heir in the current line of succession dies or voluntarily renounces the right of inheritance, or the current law of succession to the throne is amended.

At the Duke Jackson's Mansion in the imperial capital, Duke Jackson, who was supposed to be in a bad mood because the queen had rejected his leave application, received a summary of information from his subordinates, and one of the messages caught the duke's attention, Baron Philip, who was far away on the island of Flynke, was suddenly recruited by the queen to the imperial capital.

Although Frink Island also belongs to the mainland islands of the British Empire, it is located in the northernmost part of the entire mainland islands, and in terms of distance, it is not close to the imperial capital, and if the memory of Duke Jackson is not incorrect, the life of Baron Philip is still relatively pitiful, his mother died when he was very young, and there are no other brothers and sisters in the family, Philip's father also died of a serious illness a year ago, although Philip inherited the title, but he has been left alone in the family since then, Duke Jackson remembers sending people to pay his respects.

Now, why did Her Majesty suddenly recruit him to the imperial capital? What would such an insignificant member of the royal family come to do?

"Lord Duke, according to the information we have so far, Her Majesty not only recruited Baron Philip, but even specially sent someone to Fulink Island to escort Lord Baron to the imperial capital, which seems to be a great deal of importance to Lord Baron."

"The queen also sent someone to pick it up herself?" Duke Jackson paced back in the room, the little seahorse in his head galloping rapidly, he kept speculating about the possibility of the queen doing this, but no matter how he speculated, he couldn't seem to find a particularly reasonable explanation.

"There is another circumstance that my subordinates think is also very important, according to the information of the informant we have arranged in the palace, Her Majesty has become somewhat abnormal in her words and deeds since she recovered, the most obvious point is that she often says things that have never been said before, and she also seems to be particularly concerned about things that she has rarely cared about before."

"Oh? And such a thing? Listening to his subordinates' reports, Duke Jackson's mind became more and more confused. Since Her Majesty's recovery, the number of times he has seen Her Majesty is also very limited, not only him, but other members of the royal family, including Duke Thomas, have not seen the Queen much, it seems that the Queen is deliberately avoiding these people, what happened to the Queen?

Jackson was originally the chief barrister of a world-renowned law firm, one day, he took his family on a private yacht to the sea vacation, originally in the blue sky and white clouds calmly enjoyed a leisurely holiday time, but did not expect a sudden storm on the sea, in a panic, Jackson immediately asked people to turn around and sail back to the dock, but in the face of the powerful force of nature, the struggle of the small yacht seemed so pale.

After a pointless struggle, the yacht finally capsized, and Jackson only felt the icy water rushing in from all directions, and the boundless fear and despair gradually numbed his body and consciousness, and finally his mind went blank and lost consciousness.

When he felt it again, he was already lying on something similar to the operating table, as if someone was still talking in his ears, and he didn't know why, at that moment, a strong sense of danger suddenly rose in Jackson's heart, and he didn't choose to open his eyes immediately, but listened carefully to the conversation of the people around him.

"It's a good thing this person wasn't randomly teleported somewhere else, otherwise we'd have had to spend time looking for it."

"Well, the launcher on the other side of the Earth is getting more and more unstable, and if this continues, there will be too many anomalies on Landis."

"The doctor already knows about this situation, and he is also trying to find a way to solve it, let's implant a chip in this person first, by the way, is there a suitable chip for him?"

"The British Empire is currently missing a duke, and in other people's story scripts, that duke has been leading expeditionary forces overseas to open up territories, and according to the timeline of the plot, this duke should go back now."
