My British Empire - Chapter 552
Chapter 552 Time is rushing
When it comes to royal palaces, the most famous European royal palaces are the Palace of Versailles in France and Buckingham Palace in England, and there are no others.
The Palace of Versailles, because it is located in the town of Versailles; Buckingham Palace, because it was built by the Duke of Buckingham.
So, the name of the new palace has always been a problem for Edward.
It’s called Caesar’s Palace, how does it sound like a concentration of women who have lost their feet in later generations; or St. George’s Palace.
Edward couldn’t think of any other names.
Finally, as soon as I saw the emblem of my royal family, a red and white rose mark.
It’s better to call it the Rose Palace. After all, the Tudor royal family is due to the merger of the Lancaster family and the York family. The name Rose Palace is also a proper meaning.
The name has been decided for the time being, so His Majesty Edward is finally relieved.
“Edward, my dear brother!” His Majesty the King was lying comfortably on the imperial sofa, holding a book in his hand, and looking at it in a daze. Young people look even more charming.
Suddenly, a Jiaohe sounded from his ear, like a thunderclap, making his whole head confused.
“Who?” As a master, Edward was very annoyed that there was such a person who disturbed him, rubbed his eyes, and he scolded loudly.
This kind of behavior that offends the dignity of the king must be dealt with resolutely.
“En? Edward, what do you want to do?” Opening his eyes slightly, Edward saw a woman in a tight knight jacket with long hair tied standing in front of him. Her expression was like a smile. Not laughing.
As usual, her clothes have some hollow lace, which is her favorite decoration.
And the most important thing is that she is holding a horsewhip in her hand, which is particularly dazzling with her white and tender wrist.
“The original Elizabeth, why are you so busy looking for me today?”
Seeing that it was his unmarried sister, Edward could only ask with a bitter face, helplessly.
“What? I’m looking for you because I’m idle? You mean, I’m idle, right?”
Elizabeth crossed her slender waist with her hands, raised her eyebrows, and stared at Edward closely, with an air of a storm about to come.
“No, no!” Edward waved his hands repeatedly, unable to do anything about his unmarried sister.
“I mean, don’t you often go to play with Mary and Lucy? Why do you want to come to me today?”
Elizabeth, in the entire royal family, is equivalent to the role of the sea **** needle. Queen Mary was trained by her since she was a child, and Luna Lucy was her servant since she was a child. Not to mention other people, how dare she argue with this eldest sister.
Therefore, Edward’s own harem is extraordinarily harmonious, and the most important factor is the existence of Elizabeth.
As for Her Royal Highness, who is three years older than herself and is already thirty-two years old this year, she also respects her extraordinarily.
“I heard that you are going to build a new palace?” Elizabeth looked at her younger brother, and unconsciously flicked the horsewhip with her right hand, looking a little excited.
“Yes!” Edward nodded, looked at the energetic and heroic Elizabeth, and her plump figure, and said in a seductive tone:
“This palace is about ten times as big as the current Windsor Castle. There will be various flowers and trees in it, as well as various lovely things, and a swimming pool. It is simply beautiful!”
“I really hope that this day will come soon!” Elizabeth heard this, eyes full of longing, then glanced at Edward nestled on the sofa, curled her lips, then deliberately raised her pink lips, pretending to say casually:
“By the way, Edward, how long has it been since you rode with me? What are you doing lazily lying on the sofa? Why don’t you get up! Go, go for a stroll!”
At the end, she pursed her lips and flicked her golden ponytail, looking extraordinarily dry and beautiful.
“Okay, wait for me for a while!” Edward got up helplessly, and after turning around and saying a word, he ordered the maid to help him change his clothes, and the guards went to bring the horse over.
Tian Lian can see that he finally lay lazily on the sofa, he didn’t have to think about or do anything, he just wanted to lie down comfortably.
It’s just too annoying to have to ride a horse at this time.
Looking at his beautiful and capable sister, who has a temperament different from other noble ladies, Edward couldn’t help but praise her in his heart.
Because of being educated in humanities since childhood, she possesses an intellectual and literary temperament that is different from traditional women. In addition, she is tall and has clear facial features. Although she did not inherit the beauty of her mother, she has inherited a bit of Henry VIII’s momentum and posture, just like a strong woman in the modern workplace, with a distinctive temperament.
“Sure enough, she deserves to be a woman who has been a king in history, her temperament is really convincing!”
Unfortunately, my sister is thirty-two years old, and she has no intention of marrying at all. Instead, she has a tendency to stay at home longer and longer, which has to worry Edward.
It is not that there are no suitors.
The powerful princess of the United Kingdom also has temptations.
For example, the son of Ferdinand I of the Holy Roman Empire, Archduke Charles, Crown Prince Eric of Sweden, and the Dukes of Anjou and Alençon in France all pursued her.
As for this princess, Her Royal Highness is very arrogant, except for some understanding, the rest of the steps did not continue.
This made His Majesty the king who had been worrying very much: it won’t be the same as in history, stay single forever!
In this regard, Edward summoned Robert Dudley, the son of the retired Duke of Northumberland, into the Guards to serve in order to create opportunities.
Regarding this incident, the Duke of Northumberland, who had been sluggish after retirement, was happy for a long time. He thought it was a harbinger of the Dudley family’s revival.
Later, Edward also discovered that although Elizabeth had some interest in Robert Dudley, it was just an inexplicable attraction to the opposite sex, but after reaching a certain level, the enthusiasm inexplicably went out.
At this point, Edward gave up his mind, let her do what she wants!
“Edward, how are you!”
Thinking wildly in his head, letting the maid help him dress, Edward suddenly heard Elizabeth’s impatient voice outside the door.
“Hurry up, hurry up!” Edward echoed.
Immediately, with a bang, he prepared to ride his white horse.
When the guards brought the horses, Edward suddenly realized that the pony Arthur, who had grown up with him a few months ago, had left this world.
An inexplicable sadness surged from his heart.
Time flies.
