Make France Great Again

Chapter 13 Foreign Secretary Palmerston

"I don't know which beautiful princess insisted on letting her teacher dismiss get out of class, but now she's blaming me!" Albert hugged Victoria with his left hand and gently stroked Victoria with his right hand, his eyes full of love. The golden hair said in a loving tone.

"I don't care! Everything is your fault!" The 29-year-old Victoria still smacked her lips like a child and acted like a baby to Albert.

Even though the two have been together for 8 years, Victoria still feels the same to Albert as when they met for the first time.

In Victoria's eyes, Albert, who was her age, was still so handsome.

"That's right! Knowing you is the fault of my life!" Prince Albert pretended to be serious to Queen Victoria.

Victoria's eyes widened, and her white arms hooked around the back of Albert's neck were slightly tightened, as if you were trying to say it again.

However, Albert's next sentence made Victoria smile.

"The merciful God gave me the honor to know you! Now that I have made a mistake, let God make the two of us wrong forever... I mistakenly pulled the angel into the mortal world, and then shamelessly courted the angel..." Al Bert is worthy of being the proud son who graduated from the University of Bonn, and a set of witty love stories made Victoria smile.

The lips collided with each other with a strong love, and after the passionate kiss, the spark of love became more intense.

"Victoria, I..." Albert felt his breathing hot.

Not only breathing, but even the whole body became hot.

The flames in Victoria's eyes became even hotter, as if everything was going to be burned up.

The setting sun outside the window reflects on the walls of Buckingham Palace, drawing a long reflection of the day, making the original resplendent arches look extraordinarily sacred under the sunshine, and a spring feeling pervades the sacred room, listening to you in a certain room of Buckingham Palace There will be gasps mixed with suppressed moans.

...

The strong spring feeling lasted for half an hour and came to an end.

The sun sets and night falls.

John Brown, who was in charge of taking care of Victoria and his wife's daily life, came to the door lightly, knocked on the door lightly and said, "Your Highness, Your Majesty, the banquet will start in 2 hours! Now is the time to wash up!"

"Hmm!" Victoria's lazy voice came from the room, and the subtle sound of flint ignition sounded, and the dark room was lit.

John Brown, who saw the light in the room through the crack of the door, quickly summoned the maid in charge of the Victoria couple's daily life and waited for the message from inside.

Nearly 20 minutes later, Albert's strong voice came from the room: "You can come in!"

The door opened, and the maids with toiletries and necessary cosmetics swarmed up.

Victoria and Albert were manipulated like two dolls that were manipulated by others. The bright red military uniform was put on Albert, and the gorgeous purple lace dress was put on Victoria.

"Honey, I think the two of us are like two dolls!" Victoria, who hated complicated etiquette and attire, complained to Albert.

"Your Majesty, you are the ruler of the whole of Britain! Complicated etiquette is conducive to maintaining the respect of your subjects! If you are disheveled, I am afraid that Prime Minister Russell will criticize me behind my back!" Albert half-jokingly half-seriously replied.

"He dares!" Victoria said like a kitten with blown hair, "If he does this, I will depose his prime minister!"

In the 19th century, when the royal power was not yet weak, the power of the king/emperor was above all secular rules.

Even Britain, which is known as a constitutional monarchy, as long as Queen Victoria wants to, she can abolish the cabinet with one word, or even just a hint,

Those parties in opposition will charge forward for the Queen.

The so-called "as long as the cabinet agrees, even if the Queen of England is executed, she can only sign the vote" is simply impossible.

The maid standing aside didn't seem to have heard Victoria's "overbearing" words and continued to work diligently.

From the first day she stayed in Buckingham Palace, she was told that people with loose mouths would shut up forever in Buckingham Palace. Every year, people disappeared in Buckingham Palace, and they were all talkative people without exception.

"Victoria, I told you a long time ago! Rights are not for squandering, and the rights of the Kingdom of Britain are rights based on the Magna Carta! You don't need to do it yourself if you want to bring down a cabinet..." Prince Albert It's like Queen Victoria talking about the magical effect of "governing by doing nothing".

It took about an hour to wash and tidy up. Queen Victoria and her husband, led by their attendants and John Brown, came to the side hall of Buckingham Palace, where they were going to receive the British Foreign Minister Palmerston and him wife.

…………

A carriage slowly drove towards Buckingham Palace from the dark night.

Sitting in the carriage was a man with an oval face, a high nose bridge, and thick lips. He was wearing a black cashmere coat with a large medal on his chest and a pair of tight black silk stockings. Although his gray temples and face are covered with wrinkles, this does not affect his wisdom at all. His pair of deep and wise eyes seem to see the essence of everything. He is the Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Kingdom of Britain. , also known as the Palmerston of the Foreign Minister.

On his body is a young woman who is far from his age. This young woman who looks only in her 40s and has a charming face is actually 61 years old, and the years are only left on her face. A few scratches from the years did not affect the overall appearance of the old lady at all. She leaned quietly beside Palmerston.

Obviously the age difference is not far, but it presents a harmonious scene of an old couple and a young wife.

The old woman was his wife, the widow of the Earl of Cowper, nine years had passed since Palmerston married her.

During these 9 years, the two still maintained the passion that only young people have.

"Henry (Palmerston's full name is Henry John Temple Palmerston), what do you think the queen and her husband invited us to Buckingham Palace for?" Under the light, Mrs. Palmerston asked her husband in front of her.

"I think it's probably something about work!" Palmerston replied vaguely.
