Flowers, Swords and France

Looking at this uninvited visitor, Charlotte was as stunned as her husband.

Although I have never seen this person before, there is probably only one person who can dress like this and dare to be so unrestrained in Buckingham Palace...

The lady remained silent and looked at them with a half-smile, seeming to enjoy the shock of the young couple.

At this time, Ciel, who was standing in front of her, had come to his senses.

Ah, there is no mistake, this is Her Majesty the Queen of England. Although I don’t know why the Queen did not follow the procedure and let herself and Charlotte run over to meet her, but ran over in person, there is no doubt that it was her.

In addition... the person following her should be her husband, the famous Prince Albert...

I really didn't expect that the Queen and his wife would come to me so quickly.

Ah, what are you thinking about? You can't just stand in front of them like this, right?

"Your Majesty!" After coming back to his senses, Charles hurriedly bowed and saluted the woman opposite, and then saluted her in German as he had planned before, "I am very honored to be received by you!"

"Pfft..." His flustered look made the woman burst into laughter. "Ha ha……"

The slightly awkward atmosphere was immediately dissolved by this laughter. It seemed that she was quite proud of this unexpected and amazing move.

Then, she turned to look at the middle-aged man following her, "How about it, let me just say they will be surprised, right?"

"My dear, you came over to disturb me while they were still resting. Of course you were surprised..." The sad-looking middle-aged man shook his head slightly. He seemed to disagree with his wife's actions, but with an unimaginable sense of helplessness, "Let's go back first and let Mr. and Mrs. de Treville take a rest first..."

Then, he looked at Charles and Charlotte with a slightly apologetic look, and then nodded slightly, as if he was apologizing to them for not restraining his wife's willful behavior.

This sentence and this look seemed to have revealed all the details of the couple.

Charlotte also regained consciousness at this time. She walked carefully to Ciel's side, then looked at the couple and Ciel in return. Because the Queen and his wife spoke in German, she couldn't understand it, so she didn't know how to respond, so she had to bow first and then talk.

Because this couple was so present, they felt like they had nothing to say.

"Oh, we've already come here. Is there any point in pretending that nothing happened and then walking back?" Maybe it was because Charlotte couldn't understand German. She suddenly switched to French, "Honey, don't be so formal, this is our home. We can see whoever we want to see!"

Then, she nodded towards Charles with a smile, "Besides. Mr. de Treville will not take it seriously for such a little surprise, right?"

The prince's face became even more embarrassed. But he didn't seem to know what to say, so he could only shrug lightly at Ciel. Tell him to do what his wife wants.

Even if he didn't indicate so, Charles certainly wouldn't dare to confront the queen. Besides...compared to the kind of ceremonial meeting where everyone kept a straight face, he felt that such a meeting was more interesting.

Really, when he saw the Queen appearing in front of him so suddenly and acting so lifelike, his heart was filled with a strange sense of satisfaction - how many people can be as lucky as me?

At least at this moment, this is a living person, not a phantom that only exists in paintings and historical records.

"Of course, Your Majesty... We have been looking forward to receiving you as soon as possible along the way. Today, our dream has finally come true. How can we have any objections?" Charles replied sincerely, "Although... well, although You just gave us a little...a little surprise, but I admire your approachability even more."

"Haha, look!" Her Majesty the Queen glanced at her husband as if showing off her victory, "I came here so early, and they are very happy..."

Then, the Queen stretched out her hand towards Ciel, with a pretended serious look on her face. "So, you have now been received by us, lovely young man..."

Although this seemed a bit abrupt and funny, Charles quickly reached out his hand, took it in his hands, and kissed it gently - after all, she was the Queen of Britain, and she had the right to do what she wanted. anything.

The touch is not bad.

The Queen is thirty-two years old this year and has given birth to several children. Because she takes good care of herself, her skin is still soft and elastic.

Of course, he just touched her lips lightly and let go.

After Charles saluted her, the Queen left his side, walked to Charlotte, and looked at her with interest. Charlotte also rarely held her breath and allowed herself to be looked at by Her Majesty the Queen. Own.

"What a lovely couple... what a lovely couple!" After seeing both Charles and Charlotte clearly, she shouted softly, "My dear, I will Let’s face it, how can a child from a famous family like De Treville not be outstanding?”

Although Charles disagreed with the idea that "being born in a noble family means being outstanding", Her Majesty's words praising her husband and her family at the same time were exactly what Charlotte wanted, and she was instantly impressed by the Queen.

Seeing Her Majesty speak French fluently, Charlotte was a little surprised at first, but soon realized that since she was born in a royal family, Queen Victoria must have received the most complete education since childhood, and it was not surprising that she learned French.

Yes, Her Majesty does not need to deliberately please herself. Since even she said so, it can only mean that this is indeed the truth - Charles and I are really so well matched, aren't we?

"Your Majesty, you and your husband are also outstanding." In an instant, she also forgot those empty etiquettes and answered sincerely from the heart. "I really hope I can be as happy as you!"

In Charlotte's view, although she is a little willful - after all, how can there be a queen who is not willful? But she was not lacking in propriety towards others, and was very enthusiastic, full of the kind of satisfied happiness that a woman feels after having everything.

And this kind of happiness is exactly what she is striving for.

When she thought of this, she looked at Prince Albert, who was a little embarrassed and helpless, but not lacking in tolerance.

If only Charles could be so accommodating to me! She thought to herself.

"Young people nowadays are really good at talking..." Charlotte's sincere words made the Queen even happier. She suddenly stretched out her hand and touched Charlotte's forehead, "Then, I will bless you on behalf of God!"

The Queen's intimate attitude was not like the first meeting. It was kind and friendly, which made Charlotte forget her original dissatisfaction with the weather and environment in Britain, and her heart was full of gratitude for her.

The original text is in the six # 9 @book/bar!

Even Charles, who was watching from the side, felt a little happy inadvertently.

However, in addition to his joy, he still had some doubts in his heart.

Her Majesty's intimate and even unrestrained performance, although due to her personality, there must be some deep considerations - she will definitely not be so friendly to everyone.

As the saying goes, courtesy must be for something, right?

Just as Charles was about to say something else, Her Majesty slowly removed her hand from Charlotte's forehead.

"Okay, let's not stay in this room, let's go to the hall together, okay?" She looked at Charles and his wife as if inquiring, "You rarely come here, please let us enjoy the fun of the host and take you to visit here?"

Although the tone was asking, Her Majesty probably didn't know what refusal meant, so Charles and his wife didn't say anything against it - besides, they didn't plan to rest in the first place.

Seeing that neither of them objected, Her Majesty nodded with satisfaction, then turned around and left the room directly.

Charles and Charlotte, as well as Prince Albert, had to follow her out together.

At this moment, Charles suddenly felt that the prince next to him kept looking at him, as if he was hesitant to speak.

He nodded to him as he walked.

The prince slowly approached.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Treville, Victoria may have made you a little uneasy... But please don't misunderstand, she has no ill will towards you, at most she is a little curious."

"Don't worry, Your Highness, we will never mind." Charles answered the prince in a low voice quite attentively, "We can feel the kindness of Her Majesty the Queen."

"Oh, that's great." The prince nodded with some relief, and his frown was slightly relaxed, "I think you can understand that Victoria has always been very interested in those new people, and she doesn't pay much attention to the degree of her dealings with people..."

When he said this, he seemed to recall something and sighed softly.

It seems that he usually worries about his wife.

"After all, she is the Queen, and she can do whatever she wants." Charles nodded in understanding, as if he could understand the prince's usual distress.

Then, his expression suddenly turned serious, "So, can I think that you suggested that she be more friendly to us?"

The prince did not hesitate this time, but just glanced at Charles with a little surprise, and then his face suddenly became serious and calm.

"You can think so." (To be continued...)
