The Rise of the Writers of the Republic of China

Chapter 815 814 [Princess Who Steals Wine]

Berkshire, Windsor Castle.

After his coronation, King George VI finally relaxed after half a busy month and took his family to the countryside for a vacation.

One sunny afternoon, George VI drank afternoon tea, smoked a cigar and laughed loudly: "I was so nervous at the time, just...just when the archbishop was crowning me, his hands shook...trembled a little, almost It hit me on the forehead. But... maybe the crown is too heavy."

Lord Mountbatten, who had not yet become a Lord, said that old saying: "If you want to wear a crown, you must bear its weight."

"Zhou, the former kings of China, what did their crowns look like?" George VI asked Zhou Hexuan.

Zhou Hexuan crossed his legs, sipped black tea and said: "There are many dynasties in China. Except for the Qing Dynasty, the emperors of other dynasties all wore Mianqi. Of course, because Mianqi is as heavy as your crown, starting from the Tang Dynasty, Mianqi As a hat, it was only used during sacrifices. By the Qing Dynasty, Chinese monarchs switched to wearing cinnabar crowns. The shape is not far different from your crown, but there are not so many jewels for decoration."

George VI smiled and said: "I...I am very envious of the kings of the Qing Dynasty who can wear lightweight hats."

While the three of them were joking, the Queen of England was also chatting with Vivien Leigh. The two women chatted about makeup, clothing, jewelry, drama, movies, etc. Queen Elizabeth seemed to be very happy with the conversation, maybe because she couldn't find a suitable communication partner.

In the castle garden, three little girls were having fun.

The 11-year-old Princess Elizabeth, holding a bouquet of picked flowers in her hand, was weaving flower crowns for her two little sisters.

When the corolla was finished, the 7-year-old Princess Margaret immediately held her head high and said in a matter-of-fact tone: "Lily White, put it on me quickly!"

"Just wait a moment."

Princess Elizabeth ignored her sister, but put the flower crown on little Chunxi's head, and said with a smile: "This flower crown is for the beautiful Rebecca. It really looks like a little fairy!"

"Thank you Sister Lily!" Little Chunxi was not yet 3 years old. She was so happy to receive the flower crown that she spread her arms and danced in circles.

Princess Margaret was a little unhappy, turned around and walked towards the flowers and said, "Humph, what's so weird? I can make flower crowns myself."

Xiao Chunxi felt very kind to Princess Elizabeth, just like meeting her sister Lingjun. After only half a day together, she became Elizabeth's little follower. And Elizabeth also likes little Chunxi very much, because the little guy is sensible and clingy, unlike her younger sister Margaret who is always playful.

Little Chunxi danced for a while before she stopped and said, "Sister Lily, the flower crown you made is so beautiful. Can I go over and show it to my parents?"

"Of course, I'll take you there." After saying this, Princess Elizabeth took Chunxi's little hand.

The two little girls quickly left the garden, and Princess Margaret did not follow. She picked flowers there by herself, muttering: "It's nothing special. I can also weave flower crowns, and they are prettier than yours." .”

As soon as little Chunxi saw her parents, she immediately let go of Princess Elizabeth's hand and ran while shouting: "Dad, Mom, look at my flower crown!"

"So beautiful!" Zhou Hexuan picked up his daughter.

Xiao Chunxi pointed at Elizabeth and said, "Sister Lily made it up for me."

"Have you said thank you to sister?" Zhou Hexuan asked.

"I said it." Xiao Chunxi nodded repeatedly.

Princess Elizabeth also came over, holding the hem of her skirt with both hands, curtsying like a lady and saying, "Hello, Uncle Zhou!"

"Hello, beautiful princess." Zhou Hexuan felt that numerical symbols were popping up above his head, and the words "-1S" kept floating into the void.

In two years, Princess Elizabeth will meet her Prince Charming, and it will be love at first sight.

That Prince Charming was Lord Mountbatten's nephew. His biological parents had left him alone, and Mountbatten had raised him since he was a child. Lord Mountbatten, at this time, was the personal naval adjutant of King George VI. During the coronation ship review that day, Mountbatten stood beside George VI from beginning to end.

Little Chunxi left her father's place, ran to show off to her mother for a while, and then was led by Elizabeth into the castle.

Halfway through braiding Princess Margaret's flower crown, she couldn't bear the loneliness and completely forgot about the previous unpleasantness. She smiled and came over to hold hands with Elizabeth and Xiao Chunxi.

The three little girls slipped into the castle, and Elizabeth shouted back at the servants who followed them: "Don't come over, we want to hide and seek!"

The servant was a little anxious and didn't dare to follow, but he didn't dare to leave either. He only stayed far away to prevent any accidents from happening.

Xiao Chunxi asked innocently: "Sister Lily, do we want to hide and seek?"

Elizabeth took out the stolen key and said mysteriously: "I will take you to a good place!"

Margaret immediately exposed it: "I know, you are going to steal wine!"

"Shh! Keep your voice down." Elizabeth quickly covered her sister's mouth.

Margaret broke away and said: "I want to drink too, otherwise I will tell the truth!"

Elizabeth thought for a while, nodded and said: "Okay, you are only allowed to drink a little."

Like thieves, the two sisters took little Chunxi everywhere to deceive the castle staff under the pretext of hide-and-seek, and finally entered the royal wine room of Windsor Castle.

Elizabeth took out a bottle from the wine rack, pulled out the cork and smelled it, and said intoxicatedly: "The 2000 French Bordeaux, it smells so good!"

"I want it too, I want it too," Margaret said eagerly, commanding, "Lily White, help me choose the best bottle."

Elizabeth handed a bottle to her sister: "This bottle is for you."

Just when the two sisters were about to drink, Xiao Chunxi reminded them: "Dad said that children cannot drink."

Elizabeth responded with a smile: "I am already eleven years old, not a child."

"Me neither, I'm seven years old," Margaret emphasized, "Only those under five are children."

The two sisters started blowing into the wine bottles, drinking until their throats gurgled.

Xiao Chunxi watched it for a while, yearning for it: "Sister, can I drink a little? Just drink a little."

"Here you go!" Elizabeth generously handed the bottle to Xiao Chunxi.

Xiao Chunxi took a sip lightly, frowned and stuck out her tongue and said, "It's not very sweet. It's not as delicious as sugar water."

Margaret mocked: "Only children drink sugar water, adults all drink alcohol."

"Oh," Xiao Chunxi said ignorantly and enviously, "When I grow up, I will also drink, drink a lot of wine."

The two princesses each drank more than half a bottle of red wine. The servant they had left behind finally came and exclaimed: "Oh, God! Someone is coming, the princess is stealing wine!"

"belch!"

Elizabeth's face turned red, she couldn't help but burped, threw down the bottle and shouted: "Run, you've been discovered!"

"Run, run!" Xiao Chunxi shouted and cheered, as if he was playing a very interesting game.
