Chapter Seventy-One: Christmas Message
The Queen, who has ruled the country for more than 40 years, knows it very well in her heart.
This is also the reason why she did not have much easier during the period when the red flag landed.
Mr. Huck has already met with the Queen in person several times this week to report work.
After talks between the two sides, a preliminary consensus has been reached.
That is, whether there is a wizard army in European countries or not, the British Empire must have it.
They don't want to continue to snort.
At present, it is imminent to form a wizarding force subordinate to Downing Street.
Even tension was in the air.
And as the monarch of the Empire, Her Majesty hopes that Anthony will give her some advice.
"Uh..."
When it comes to suggestions, he really has some ideas.
But I'm afraid that his eldest aunt won't be able to accept it.
After all, the entire British wizarding world isn't monolithic. Many Muggle-born wizards had only marginal exposure to that world, and their most accomplishment was to become ordinary employees of the Ministry of Magic.
Hit the lives of workers.
Plus some dark creatures.
If the Muggle government can provide these people with a place to live or a better life, it is not impossible to come up with a wizarding force on their side.
But don't expect much loyalty from this kind of force.
It's only a few hundred pounds a month, what a life!
Everybody is just eating with their mouths.
I don't think they're going to put their lives into it for some benefit.
The plan is indeed achievable. But Anthony didn't put out his thoughts and thoughts in the end.
After all, most of those fringe wizards are in the black market and Tumbledown Alley, and they are more or less engaged in illegal business.
These people, if you can, don't fight for it.
Unless, Mr. Harker, wants London to become more chaotic.
After a lunch, the queen worriedly saw Anthony away.
In the afternoon, it was still time to practice spells with Rosius Ambu.
During the intermission, Anthony asked him very curiously: Wouldn't he be warned by the Ministry of Magic if he used magic outside the school so openly?
And Rosius put on a smiling face and replied softly: As long as there is him as a 'guardian', all the problems will be left to him, and he will deal with those things, so that he does not have to worry.
Anthony couldn't help but raise an eyebrow.
Listening to his tone, it seems that he has a lot of power in the Ministry of Magic.
It's inconceivable that such a young and promising wizard would come to Buckingham Palace as a bodyguard.
...
Over the next few days, Anthony's life became regular.
Every day he learns a new spell from Rocius.
From the disarming spell at the beginning, to the obstacle spell and petrification spell later, with his unparalleled talent, these spells were mastered by him in the days leading up to Christmas.
Although he still can't touch Rosius's sleeve in actual combat, he is still improving.
As time passed, the whole of Britain finally ushered in one of the most important Christmas of the century.
On the same day, Anthony got up from his big bed early.
His window was already filled with Christmas presents from members of the royal family.
Of course, he also prepared gifts for everyone except the Queen.
Probably a few of his older brothers and sisters.
Of course, it would be unrealistic to expect him to pull out some more gold gallons from his already dry pocket.
So several elders, he gave the same thing.
The Weasley Twins' love potion, "Tempting Bubbles".
Given Charles' marital status today, it would be fitting to give a love potion.
Hehe.
At 3pm, the Queen delivered a Christmas message to the nation at Buckingham Palace.
As the symphony of the Queen of God bless slowly ends.
The TV's lens shifts from Buckingham Palace to the interior.
In that room for the family gathering, the Queen, who was still young at the time, sat at the table.
Behind him is a gorgeously decorated Christmas tree, and in front of the table, in addition to a decorative flower basket, the most furnishings are the Windsor family, the whole family's photos.
However, from the camera's point of view, it is absolutely impossible to see the figure of Anthony in the last photo.
His appearance is just obscured by the picture frame in front of him.
Immediately after, the queen's calm and flat voice slowly sounded.
"Every year, we herald Christmas by turning on the lights, which not only create a festive atmosphere, but also light that represents hope."
"We've been tested, but life goes on."
"I am proud and touched by the perseverance of people in the UK and around the world who have risen to the challenge of this year. In particular, my Administration, I want to thank you for your responsibility and dedication. ”
“...”
"From the Eternal King to the legend of Merlin, from the Normandy landings to the final coming of justice, my people have proven time and time again that this land is the birthplace of heroes, and that new hope is born here."
“...”
"If you hear this speech, I want to say, you are not alone, let me assure you that with my thoughts and prayers, I will be convinced that our future is bright."
“...”
"The Bible tells how a star appeared in the sky, and its light guided the shepherds and wise men to the place where Jesus was born, so that the light of Christmas, the selfless spirit and love, and above all hope, guided us in the direction of our progress, and it is in this spirit that I wish you a Merry Christmas."
...
The Queen's speech was bland and complex, and it was really hard to understand the meaning behind it without thinking about it.
It just so happens that Anthony is a top reading comprehension master.
Squatting next to the camera, he listened to the speech live.
Above all, of course, he had seen the manuscript before, and it was by Sir Humphrey.
Unlike in the past, apart from the daily remembrance of the past and the mourning of those who have died in the riots of recent months, this speech is unprecedented and does not beat around the bush in Russia.
It seems that Qingqiu's intelligence has a deep impact on Downing Street, and when the red flag landed, they even maintained restraint and did not add some black material to the queen's speech.
Secondly, a large part of this speech is that the Queen recalls the past history of England.
The opening is the King of Eternity, Merlin or something...
This is very rare, as everyone knows, the legend of King Arthur as a Celtic and the Angsa cannot be said to have nothing to do with it, but it can also be called a blood debt.
Ireland is shameless to the British Empire.
Therefore, under normal circumstances, the British royal family or high-ranking government will not advertise themselves as descendants of the Eternal King in public, because it would be embarrassing.
But almost all members of the royal family have the name of the Disc Knight in their name to a greater or lesser extent, for example, Anthony's full name is: Anthony Gawain Falkirk Windsor.
This time, the Queen rubbed a wave of stupid kings, all because, Mr. Huck, they knew that Merlin was the faith of the British wizarding world.
Just as they did in Jesus.
There are also many wizards in the wizarding world who believe in Merlin, the most famous being Rowena Ravenclaw, the founder of Ravenclaw, who is a follower of Merlin herself.
It can be seen that this wave of porcelain King Arthur is purely looking for legitimacy for the royal family leader wizard.
Politics propagandized belongs to yes.
