C2185 Morning at Buckingham Palace (1/2)
To be able to freely enter and leave Buckingham Palace at this time, and to have so much confidence in himself, most likely only one man in all of Britain would be the Prince of Crown Prince Edward.
He called the maid over and interrogated them personally. The Eastern Emperor's absurdity made him feel that it was a little ridiculous and even a little bit inferior to himself!
He discovered that in some ways an adult was not even half as big as a child!
When he returned to his bedroom, he found that his wife had already fallen asleep. He did not disturb his wife, and instead chose to spend the night in the study.
However, he did not sleep well that night, and his mind was filled with everything that had happened during the day. The majestic military posture of the Chinese, the sincerity of Emperor Tongzhi's speech, Xiao Letian's sharp mouth for counterattack, all the way until there was a conflict with the dodo …
All the random things in his mind were spinning back and forth!
The irritable prince tossed and turned the sesame seed cakes on the bed for over an hour before finally falling into a deep sleep. This sleep was truly too painful. The prince had spent the entire night in a nightmare, but in the nightmare, he actually stopped.
”AHH!” The prince woke up from his dream, his head covered in sweat. He looked out the window at the white sky, and when he looked at the clock, it was only four in the morning.
”God, what's wrong with me? Why am I fighting with a child? ”This is crazy …”
Washing his face in cold water, the Prince, with the help of his maid, changed into a light hunting suit. He was about to go for a walk in the garden, but when he reached the bottom of the garden, he found his mother already standing there, feeding the birds.
”Oh, Mother! Why are you up so early? ”Did you sleep well last night …” The Prince hurried forward and took the crumbs from his mother.
”I'm old, I don't have much sleep left …” Sometimes, seeing how the Young William and the rest were sleeping so soundly, they were truly envious! ”What about you? Why did you get up so early as well?” The Queen patted the crumbs off her hands without looking at her son, only watching the pigeons on the lawn.
As the prince scattered the bread crumbs, he said, ”Yesterday, too many things happened. I had to carefully comb through them. I was thinking about the future of the empire …”
The Queen Victoria rolled her eyes at her son. ”Since when did my maids become reference for the government of the empire?”
Prince Edward's face reddened. He knew that everything could not escape his mother's eyes, so he could only smile awkwardly.
Queen Victoria hated his son for not being able to succeed. It was not that Edward was not intelligent, it was not that he was not courageous, it was just that this son of his had all the virtues of a king.
Only one weakness was too lecherous, and it even caused his father to die of illness.
That year, when Edward was still in school, he had gotten involved with an actress. In order to advise his son, his husband Albert had gone to Cambridge in a horse carriage late at night to meet his son.
