Chapter 208: Top Secret in the World
At Buckingham Palace, King George V of the United Kingdom is welcoming an important guest.
This guest had also been invited by King George V to a banquet at Buckingham Palace a few months earlier.
The last meeting, which was only private, was attended by some of George V's friends, most of whom were senior admirals of the Royal Navy.
Today is different, in addition to King George V, there is also the current Prime Minister of the United Kingdom, Asquith.
There was still about half an hour before the guests visited, and Asquith also took advantage of this time to learn some relevant information with George V.
The secret war in the North Atlantic has attracted great attention from all countries, and Britain is the country with the greatest attention, and even all countries believe that this is a secret naval test conducted by Britain in the North Atlantic, but Britain is very clear that this matter has nothing to do with Britain at all.
And the UK is also carefully considering what kind of impact this matter will bring to the UK.
In this world, there are actually two naval fleets with no information at all fighting in the North Atlantic, and Britain, as the global hegemon, can not take it to heart.
The matter has risen to the highest level of concern, and the British Cabinet has even set up a separate department to deal with the mysterious naval battle that broke out in the North Atlantic.
However, the objectives of both sides of the naval battle were not found, and Asquith received an invitation from King George V to say that he was about a mysterious person on both sides of the naval battle who would come to Buckingham Palace for a banquet in the evening.
Asquith hurried to Buckingham Palace, and was the first to meet George V, who handed over a letter to Asquith's questions.
The first time he saw the envelope, Esquith was very surprised and said: "It's really amazing that it's this Count Fan Yize." ”
Asquith, as a nobleman, is now the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom, but there is still a big gap between him and the status of an earl.
And this Chinese was named the earl of the British Empire at one time, which can be said to be a step to the sky.
Facing the Prime Minister, George V said very simply: "I don't know much about this earl, in fact. ”
Speaking of Fan Yize, George V shook his head, and his expression was very strange, which made Asquith quite curious, is there something unknown behind this earl?
George V went on to say: "Queen Victoria, as well as my father, Edward VII, left letters about him, with pictures of him, and most importantly, this count of him, was given by Queen Victoria when she was young. ”
With such a secret, Asquith looked blinded and said in surprise: "Then isn't he almost a hundred years old?" ”
When George V heard this, he shook his head and said, "You probably don't know how incredible it was when I saw him last time. ”
As he spoke, George V took out a photo, which should never have appeared in this era, the background of the photo was Queen Victoria's bedroom, the photo showed a young Queen Victoria, who looked like she was only in her early twenties, and next to her, was a Chinese.
This Chinese is also very young, the photo is in color, the photo is protected by vacuum compression, and the color is very real.
The most important thing is that the two people in the photo act as if they have just woken up together, which is very intimate.
This is also what shocked Esquith, it was too shocking.
"This is Queen Victoria's greatest secret, and if it weren't for me, as king, I am afraid that I would never have known about the existence of this picture, which has been there for more than seventy years, according to the records." George V took a deep breath and said:
"And the person who took this picture is my grandfather, Prince Albert, the husband of my grandmother, Queen Victoria."
Asquith suddenly found that he had no idea what to say, this must be the British royal family's biggest secret, but it was too much to believe.
"This is the earl of the evening?" Asquith asked.
"Seventy years later, he's still so young, exactly like in the photo, nothing has changed." George V said solemnly.
"He's not God!" Asquith really didn't know what to say, and he was a little incoherent, in short, George V was not crazy, he himself was going crazy.
"Maybe he's even more amazing than God." George V said with some self-deprecation.
George V knows a lot more than he said, but a lot of it involves the top secrets of the British royal family, and he has leaked a lot of information that he has said so much today, and he can't say it anymore.
Seeing this, Asquith also opened the envelope, the content of the letter is very simple, Fan Yize will start in the evening, come to Buckingham Palace to meet with George V, and ask the British Prime Minister to accompany him, at the same time, in the letter, Fan Yize said that he has a fleet to carry out military operations in the North Atlantic.
Asquith put down the letter and asked, "Your Majesty, what do you think of this?" ”
"I don't fully understand who Fan Yize is, but my grandfather and grandmother trust him very much, and once explained in their last words that in the royal family of future generations, if this person appears again, I hope the royal family can continue to trust him." George V said.
A Chinese who appeared 70 years ago has now reappeared and is trusted by the British royal family, should we trust it?
Asquith thought a little helplessly, and couldn't help but ask, "Could it be that he is an alien?" ”
George V shook his head and said, "He is indeed a human being. ”
"Your Majesty, if he really has an army and is fighting his enemies in the North Atlantic, is he here today to ask for help? And should we lend a hand? Asquith struggled to get himself into the prime minister's state, asked.
George V seemed to know some secrets, shook his head and said: "It should not be here to ask for help, but to ask us to completely withdraw from the North Atlantic and give up the battlefield." Moreover, the United States, Germany, and France should also withdraw from the North Atlantic theater one after another, and will not continue to send navies into that area. ”
"Your Majesty, do you know anything inside?" Asquith immediately asked.
George V warned solemnly: "This is the top secret of the British royal family, and it is also the top secret of the major royal families in Europe, and there are no more than five people in the world who know this secret, and all what you see and hear here today must not be mentioned to anyone." ”
