ɦ 䣺2014-01-1818:21:50401.Chapter 401 The Real Aristocratic Life
Xu Yang is so old that he has seen what a real nobleman is, they Xu Yang is a hidden family, so they don't talk about pomp, they have always been mysterious, so Xu Yang doesn't know what aristocratic life is, but today Xu Yang knows that the past is in vain, this is the real aristocratic life, and he used to be an absolute bun.
It is said that this was said on the plane, and it is said that if Angel asks for it, or if it is possible, then he can arrange a special plane to fly directly to the United Kingdom, what kind of concept is this? Xu Yang did not dare to think that he would not have a chance for this kind of special plane. After getting off the plane, Xu Yang thought that at most it would be a good extension of the car pick-up. Who knows, as soon as Xu Yang got off the plane, he saw two rows of "men in black" standing at the airport!
One by one, black suits, black leather shoes, black sunglasses, yes! Xu Yang's thought at that time was that there were really aliens on the plane he was on, but who knew that after Angel got off the plane, a foreigner stepped forward and said a lot of English with a respectful salute. It's nonsense to think about, people are authentic foreigners, can it be right, Xu Yang will understand it when he arrives, how to say it He can also speak the language of N country now. The other party probably meant to welcome the princess back to China.
And his own group, of course, is also welcome, well! The fox is fake and the tiger is mighty, Su Xiaoxiao and Yang Yahui have never seen this kind of scene, the two of them held Xu Yang's arm together, as if to give themselves courage, just said, when Angel was on the plane, she said an inexplicable sentence: "Don't be scared when you get off the plane!"
I still think about how big things can scare me. Now it seems that I have never seen the world, and it was all petty fights in the past! I don't know this lineup, and I thought it was one big guy after another. And Xu Yang also found that the airport was actually protected, and after a few people went out, there was a luxury car outside!
Angel didn't sit in a car with Xu Yang and others, which Xu Yang understands, this is on other people's territory, just like in Huaxia, he has been in Huaxia for a year, but now it's different, he is on other people's territory, even if he is a dragon, he has to lie down.
This time, Xu Yang also sat in an extended luxury car, with a license plate, Xu Yang didn't know it, but he felt definitely better than that Sir He. Now Xu Yang thinks that the villa where Sir He lives is quite large, so what can this place be like?
When the convoy drove to the place, Xu Yang looked out through the car, and he knew where people lived, but he didn't dare to say that there was too much area to say, and it was not a problem to build a high-rise building to live in 10,000 individuals! This is the gap, when he lived in the "Hongmei Guild Hall", he felt that he was already very good, and now he knows what it means to have people outside the world, and there is a sky outside the sky! He is now at most a small landlord-level figure, and he can't get on the big stage, and this time he has seen it through the light of his cousin.
The place where Xu Yang and the others are coming now is called Manor in the UK. Su Xiaoxiao was also shocked, and said in a low voice: "Xu Yang, I don't know why I'm a little afraid. Yang Yahui, who is usually quite strong, also nodded. That means I'm scared too!
At this time, Xu Yang could only make a bold and indifferent look and said: "What are you afraid of, you don't want to see anyone, the identity of that person, you just need to think that you are seeing our relatives now." What else is there? In fact, he comforted himself like this in his heart, and what he wanted to say even more was: "I am also abrupt!"
After a while, I thought about it, what is there to be afraid of, what am I afraid of, what am I afraid of, haven't I seen our own leader. It was a level, and when he thought about it, he was not afraid, and began to look at the scenery of the manor on his own. Xu Yang's relaxation also infected the two girls around him, and they slowly began to look at the scenery heartlessly, and sighed from time to time.
What is Xu Yang's brain called, it is comparable to a computer, just when he was sorting out the knowledge in his brain, he looked at the surrounding scenery and thought of where this is, and whispered: "I know what kind of manor this is." ”
Yang Yahui asked, "What kind of manor is this?" Xu Yang looked at the scenery around him, and the more he looked at it, the more it was the same as the scenery he had seen by chance in the book. Isn't this Churchill Manor?(It seems that this manor now sells tickets, and the madman can't think of any manor, so he has to borrow it, don't be too substituting!)
"This manor is called Churchill Manor!" Xu Yang said with great certainty.
Churchill Manor was built in 1705 when Queen Anne bestowed hundreds of hectares of royal hunting grounds near Oxford to John Churchill, Duke of Marlborough I (Winston Churchill's ancestor), in recognition of his victory over the French in August 1704. On the east gate of Churchill Manor stands an inscription: In the light of the fortune of a generous monarch, the house was built for the Duke of John Madero and his wife Sarah, and was built by Monsieur Wembleder between 1705 and 1722. Woodstock's royal honour and the building were bestowed upon Her Majesty Anne and confirmed by Parliament. Queen Anne also said at the time that Britain could defeat France on the battlefield and should be superior to France in terms of architecture.
While Duke Madero continues to bring good news to his queen, his rivals seek to undermine the queen's affection for him. As a result, the funds approved for the construction of the estate were not in place. In 1712, all work on the construction of the estate was forced to stop. After the death of Queen Anne, the Duke and Lady of Madero used their own money to complete the construction of the estate. It took 17 years to complete the estate, but the duke was unable to see the palace in its entirety during his lifetime. This was 169 years before the birth of former Prime Minister Winston Churchill.
Beyond the massive arches of Churchill Manor are open turquoise lawns and an infinitely high blue sky. The grassy slope undulates on both sides, and a wide and neat road leads to the golden palace in front. On the lawn, on the shore of the lake, under the temple, the sun is shining.
Churchill Manor is the largest private residence in the United Kingdom, and the centerpiece of Churchill Manor is Bram House (to commemorate the Battle of Bram), which is richly decorated and contains a large collection of paintings, sculptures, tapestries and many fine furniture. In the magnificent hall is the ceiling painted by James Thornhill in 1716: unfolded in the order of the war, showing the victory of Madero. The long library was originally designed as a gallery, and this 55-metre-long room displays some of the finest decorations inside the palace. The interior contains full-length statues of Queen Anne, King Williamsboro Madero II and the first Duke Madero. In the dining room, tables are set alongside silver-gilded Mington cutlery. The marble door is adorned with the two-headed eagle medallion of the Duke when he was a prince of the Roman Empire.
This idyllic manor house, claimed to be more beautiful than the British Palace, took 17 years to complete, and many Britons like to compare it with the Palace of Versailles, the largest in Europe. Pacing slowly along the soft undulating grassy slope of the lakeshore to the other side, I am afraid that I will not be able to finish pacing for an afternoon, so there is a small train that shuttles between the two banks, carrying tourists who are blushing with excitement across the lawn. The grassy slopes are dotted with small flowers, the lake is as horizontal as a mirror, reflecting the blue sky and water lilies, and the occasional waterfowl passing by, or fishermen raising their rods, do not disturb it in the slightest, but rather make it more quiet.
Xu Yang and the others' convoy also stopped in front of the door, and there was a particularly gentlemanly British butler standing at the door, Xu Yang didn't care about anything else, he didn't have much chance to see this kind of ancient building, so he was looking at it all the way, and he looked at it very carefully. After entering the palatial palace and looking at the calligraphy and paintings of those celebrities, he felt what luxury was.
Xu Yang and the three of them are considered guests, and logically speaking, it is impossible for them to meet this empress at all, but this time it is not a visit or anything like that, it is purely a visit to relatives, so that Xu Yang and others can meet the legendary empress.
In Xu Yang's eyes, this empress showed more kindness, just like a grandmother who led the family, her face was full of love! Although the old man was very old, Xu Yang could still see that this beauty was also a peerless beauty, not that Xu Yang was blaspheming anything, but that men looked at women like this.
"Hello, your name is Xu Yang, I've heard of you, hehe, nice young man, these two are your girlfriends, right?" said to Xu Yang after the empress and Angel met.
After Xu Yang met the empress with standard aristocratic etiquette, he said without humility or arrogance: "Thank you for your compliment, I didn't expect the empress to know my name, it's an honor!"
After the empress saw Xu Yang's etiquette, her eyes lit up, and then she showed Xu Yang and Su Xiaoxiao a seat, Angel is like a real princess at this time, tired! This is Xu Yang's thoughts, this action is simply a textbook. If he lived here and Xu Yang did such actions every day, then he would not be far from going crazy, no wonder his cousin was not crazy enough.
Although his stomach was secretly smiling at his cousin, he did not show it on his face, and Su Xiaoxiao and Yang Yahui were of course a little restrained. Xu Yang gently patted the hands of the two and comforted them.
"Is your grandfather okay?" The empress turned to ask Xu Yang after asking Angel, just now the empress did not show the momentum of the superior, Xu Yang has seen such a person, it is impossible not to have that kind of momentum, it is formed over time, it can be seen from this point that the old man really likes Angel. She didn't treat Angel as a princess, but as a granddaughter.
"My grandfather is very good, he also asked me to bring it to you, of course, there is a letter from him here, let me hand it over to you personally!" Xu Yang took out a letter from his arms, no one knew about this letter, it was handed over to him by Xu Shuifeng when he came, and said that the old man asked him to hand it over to the empress, as for what it said, it is unknown. Looking at Angel's eyes, you know that none of these people know.
