Seeing George VI again, the other party still had no good complexion and could not forgive what the robber had done in front of him.
But the Queen and Elizabeth were happy about Li Zitao's arrival, and the successive air strikes made the atmosphere repressive.
As a 14-year-old girl, this war is even more cruel and terrifying.
Although their lives are still in the manor, Elizabeth sees many casualties every day, and the once beautiful London is shrouded in smoke.
Firelight and harsh air defense warnings have become an indispensable part of daily life, and avoiding bombing is even more exhausting.
Elizabeth has not seen her friend for a long time, which makes her very unhappy, and also worried about the comfort of her friends.
However, the father and mother only told her that everything would be fine, but did not tell her what it was like outside.
"Uncle Charlie, has London been destroyed?" The air raid alert had disappeared, and Elizabeth pulled Li Zitao to the lawn, looking at the direction of London with melancholy eyes.
There is her home, there are many good memories of her, and this city is the pride of Britain, no one in the UK wants to see it destroyed in the war.
"No, just some minor injuries, things will pass quickly." I thought people would continue their ordinary lives when there was no air strike.
Auctions, community events, wartime volunteers, and other ongoing activities, Li Zitao feels that ‘London’ will not be destroyed.
"It burns every day, and bombs will fall... I can see the buildings that were blown up, those are precious history!"
"My dear, the history and symbols of London have never been expressed in any building, but people... do you understand?"
Li Zitao pointed at his heart and looked at her with a smile, as if to convey his inner emotions to the depths of her heart.
"I think I will understand." Elizabeth nodded inexplicably.
"That's good...Look at the gift I brought for you!" As soon as he arrived, he had to give it away in the future, and he was dragged by Elizabeth to the lawn to talk.
Taking the box from Bai Xue, Li Zitao put the beautifully packed box in front of her and said, "Open it."
"It looks big... still pretty, I think it must be a big surprise!" Elizabeth chuckled as he opened the package.
Li Zitao leaned back on the grass and did not answer her question, but let her discover the surprise by herself.
"Wow~~" When Elizabeth opened the box and saw the silver tea set in countless origamis and ribbons, her eyes lit up.
"They are so beautiful...like the tea set of a grandmother in grandfather's time!" Elizabeth gently stroked the lines on the tea set with her hand.
"If you go to Sotheby's, I think the appraisers should be unemployed." Li Zitao said with a look of interest.
With a sweet smile, Elizabeth murmured with thought: "They look familiar, have I seen them before?"
"I think it's in the royal family's collection, this is the beloved tea set used by Queen Victoria!" Li Zitao said casually.
It’s not clear whether he loves him or not, anyway, it’s not up to him to decide, as long as Elizabeth likes it.
"I like them so much... Uncle Charlie, thank you for your gift!" Elizabeth said, turning her head to kiss his face.
"Haha, just like it. When I come to the United States, I can let Aiden and Mason show you the collection at home, which will definitely make you reluctant to leave."
Li Zitao smiled heartily and looked at Elizabeth with soft eyes. The father-in-law looked at his daughter-in-law more and more satisfied!
If Mason can really marry the Windsor royal family, the Li family is now peaceful, but the embarrassing situation can be broken immediately.
In the future, it may become a link between East and West, which is of great significance to Li Zitao.
As he grows older, his homesickness becomes more and more important, and his heart will always care about the distant East involuntarily.
According to the news from Hualian (Hua Guo), the situation in the Far East is still very difficult. The United Party and the Red Party have reached an agreement and must first fight against Japan.
It's just that the thoughts of the leaders of the two parties can't be well communicated downwards, internal conflicts are constant, and in this era, Japan is the real Far Eastern hegemon.
The current war situation is still to avoid large-scale operations, mobilize the masses, and actively seek foreign aid to increase the tilt of the war balance.
Weapons that had previously secretly passed through the Gangjiang River have been successfully imitated by arsenals in the Far East. Although stability and accuracy cannot be achieved, at least large-scale popularization has been achieved.
In terms of imitation ability, Li Zitao really admires the ability of the Chinese people. Sometimes he is thinking that when humans cross the earth, the whole universe may be trembling under the metamorphic imitation project of my country. .
"Uncle Charlie...Uncle Charlie." Elizabeth shook his arm, sobering Li Zitao in contemplation.
"Well? What's the matter?" Li Zitao smiled apologetically.
"Can you tell my father and mother to let me live in America for a while?" Elizabeth raised her head and looked at him with the look of expectation.
It seems that Li Zitao's temptation just worked. Elizabeth's interest in art and other collectibles is very high~EbookFREE.me~ is also very interested in the United States.
"Uh..." Li Zitao was a little embarrassed and asked him to tell George VI without knowing what would happen.
Seeing his embarrassed expression, Elizabeth also thought of the relationship between his father and him, and could not conceal his lost head.
"I thought of it." Li Zitao suddenly called out: "Maybe you should call Mary and let her make an invitation...London is very unsafe now, isn't it?"
"Yes, this is a great idea. I'll go now." Elizabeth knew it a little, and hurriedly hugged the gift and ran to the manor.
Shortly after she left, Li Zitao was lying on the lawn and basking in the sun. The smell of smoky smoke in the air brought a different kind of experience, and Her Excellency came over from a distance.
"My Excellency, good afternoon." Li Zitao stood up lazily holding her fingertips, leaning forward to make a virtual kiss on the back of the hand.
"I have said it many times, Charlie... call me Bovez, this is not a palace." Bovez looked at him with a smile, "walk together."
"Okay." Nodding with a smile, the two walked forward side by side.
"I apologize for Albert's attitude. He is just too tired. You know, the dignity of the royal family and the whole country is on him." For Bovis, her heart hangs on her husband. And daughter.
However, after her husband became George VI, her heart became more and more biased towards her daughter, and she became more and more disappointed with the most noble husband in Britain.
Sometimes Bovis has to rejoice. Now that Britain is a parliamentary democracy, if he was born in the Middle Ages, there will be another brutal king in history.
But in front of outsiders, she still has to maintain the dignity of her husband, because he represents not only himself, but also the British Empire and the Royal Family of Windsor.
