Chapter 60: The Prime Minister Doesn't Call

Lyceum Theatre.

The performance on stage is nearing the end of the first act.

There was a burst of laughter on the first floor of the theater:

"Hahaha!"

They reached Cecil's ears like endless taunts.

Wardhouse smiled and said, "Your Excellency, is 10 Downing Street like this?" The Minister can put the Prime Minister ...... Hehehe, sorry, I asked redundantly. ”

Cecil's fists clenched,

He was 10,000 percent sure that Lu Shi was absolutely guided by the Liberal Party to know so many "political secrets."

And the most unacceptable point:

In Yes! Prime Minister, Jim is occasionally able to force Humphrey to back down,

In reality, Cecil had to break his head for a little reform, which made him physically and mentally exhausted.

This gave him a very absurd delusion:

You may ...... Possible...... Probably...... Maybe...... Not as good as Jim?

As soon as this thought came to mind, Cecil quickly took a sip of red wine, pressed it down, and then asked Erwyn, who was beside him: "Sir Erwin, is the writer of this play in the No. 1 bag next door...... Sir Elwin? ”

Erwin was staring at the stage in a daze,

Suddenly, he struck a spirit,

"Your Excellency the Prime Minister?"

Cecil's brow furrowed,

"Sir, what are you thinking?"

"Goo......

Erwin swallowed.

In this "Yes! Prime Minister", Prime Minister Jim Harker is undoubtedly an existence that has been played by the ministers.

If the screenwriter is satirizing the real cabinet, then the spearhead is undoubtedly directed at Cecil, if it is used properly, the Royal Navy's military spending is too high, maybe through this "Yes! Prime Minister" to the incompetent Prime Minister,

Of course, it is not really pushed to Cecil, after all, the cabinet is not so stupid, but public opinion can build momentum,

Perhaps, "Yes! Prime Minister can be a good opportunity for the Royal Navy to settle accounts,

A once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!

Erwin had a small calculation in mind.

Cecil didn't know what he was thinking, and continued with the question just now: "Sir Wardhouse said just now, the two playwrights are in Box One?" ”

Erwin showed a defensive attitude,

He leaned back, letting his body sink into the back of his chair,

"Your Excellency Prime Minister, do you want to?"

……

Box 1.

"Wonderful! It's so exciting! ”

Since the beginning of the performance, the queen's mouth has not been closed, either laughing or praising the script.

Lu Shi and George Bernard Shaw were thrilled beside them,

They were worried that the queen would be too emotional and accidentally burst her blood vessels.

Fortunately, the intermission arrived,

The curtain slowly pulls up, leaving the stage in darkness.

But the theater is much more lively than just now,

When the actors are performing, the audience will try to control the volume of laughter, unless they really can't help it.

In the interlude, they can talk freely and discuss the plot.

There was a cacophony in the air.

The queen set aside the small brass binoculars she had used to watch the stage, and then stretched in satisfaction.

The old waist made a "creaking" sound.

Lu Shi and George Bernard Shaw hurriedly staggered their gaze.

Don't look at indecent things,

The Queen's actions were clearly not in line with royal etiquette.

Margarita laughs,

"Your Majesty, I have told you a long time ago, "Yes! The Prime Minister is very interesting. ”

With outsiders around, she won't call the queen "grandmother".

The queen couldn't help but nod,

"Hmm. It's a pity that the facilities of the Lyceum Theater are average, and my ribs hurt a little when this chair is made. ”

Stephenson asked, "Shall I help you move?" ”

The queen shook her head,

"No, no, if the show starts in a while and I'm not in my seat, it will be a big loss. I don't want to miss a minute or a second of this drama. ”

As she spoke, the queen turned to land,

Unexpectedly, she was about to speak, when there was a sudden knock on the door outside.

Stephenson frowned,

"What are these theater guys going on!? Didn't you just say that they should not bother!? ”

The queen waved her hand and said magnanimously: "Flake, we are low-key when we come out this time, and the theater staff don't know our true identity, so you don't need to embarrass others." ”

Stephenson was a little depressed.

Statues of the Queen and huge paintings can be found in almost every important landmark in London,

On this trip, although the queen deliberately covered her face with a hat and collar, as long as she was an observant person, she would definitely be able to vaguely see the clues.

Strangely, along the way, no one recognized it,

Maybe it's dark under the lights.

At this time, the knock on the door outside became louder and louder,

Knock Knock Knock –

Stephenson staggered: "Tsk......"

He whispered, "Your Majesty, shall I open the door?" ”

The queen changed to a more comfortable seat, drew herself into the darkness as much as possible, and then said, "Go." ”

Stephenson walked over and opened the door.

I saw the service staff of the theater standing at the door,

He subconsciously looked into the No. 1 box, but was directly blocked by Stephenson.

"Don't mess around!"

The waiter hurriedly bowed his head,

"I wonder if Mr. Xiao and Mr. Lu have time to ...... now"

Stephenson frowned,

"Nope!"

As he spoke, he was about to close the door.

Unexpectedly, the queen spoke: "Flake, the two lords are here, and it is not your turn to refuse for them." ”

Stephenson had no choice but to make a way,

He was worried that the waiter had rammed the queen, so his eyes followed the other party closely.

Fortunately, when the waiter went straight to Lu, there was a whisper.

Lu Shi was surprised,

"The private room next door? Next door is not Church...... Not...... Who do you say is going to invite me to drink? ”

The waiter was also helpless,

"It's a gentleman who calls himself 'Salisbury.'"

Salisbury, a small town in Wiltshire in southern England, is home to the tallest Catholic church in the UK, and the famous prehistoric Stonehenge stands in a field not far from the city.

Lu Shi was surprised,

"Who?"

As soon as the words fell, the queen's old laughter came from the side,

"Professor Lu can write such an excellent political satire, why doesn't he even have this little political knowledge? The Marquess of Salisbury is the Prime Minister today. ”

Although Lu Shi had considered the possibility of the prime minister's visit, he didn't expect it to be so soon.

He muttered for a moment,

"The Prime Minister invited me for a drink?"

As a result, the waiter froze in place and did not answer.

The queen on the side said: "This young man probably didn't expect that he had been in close contact with the prime minister just now, so he couldn't react." ”

She said to the waiter, "Don't panic, young man. If you give a message to Your Excellency the Prime Minister, just say that Mr. Lu and Mr. Xiao can't get away for the time being, and they are accompanying their friends. Their friend is Miss Margarita, Miss Margarita in front of the Emperor. ”

The Queen's voice was graceful and steady.

The waiter was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously cast his gaze over,

"Gozen?"

He had a vague sense that the old woman was somewhat familiar.

But Stephenson didn't give him a chance to continue observing, and directly pushed him and scolded: "Why don't you go quickly!?" ”

The waiter faintly felt that today's events seemed to be piercing the sky,

He nodded hastily,

"Good! I...... I'll go right away! ”
