I Am a Nobleman in England

Chapter 320: Supreme glory

The old lady has always been the centerpiece of the Windsor room. It can be said that half of the royal reputation today is based on the hard work of the old lady and his wife over the past few decades.

  Queen is already 83 years old this year, but no matter how old a woman is, the jewelry crown is their most loyal friend.

   a white long-sleeved dress, a silver pouch and a shawl wore her beloved ruby ​​flower crown. This crown is a gift from Myanmar to her. Because of the bright colors and the shape of the flower pattern, it is most suitable for banquet occasions.

   In order to echo the crown, the necklace around the old lady's neck is also linked by large rubies.

   Her arrival made everyone in the hall suddenly become solemn and silent. Wherever she passed by with a smile, men bowed their heads and bowed their heads to salute, and women bowed their knees to salute.

   Arthur and Eddie are of course no exception, but everyone unexpectedly happened, including Arthur himself.

   When the old lady walked past Arthur and Eddie, she stopped with a kindly smile and smiled to look at Arthur, who was bowing and raising his head after saluting.

   "Earl Bolin, did you come from a long way?"

  "Return to Your  Majesty, yes, thank You  Majesty for your invitation, I wish Your  Majesty a Merry Christmas."

   To tell the truth, Arthur was really surprised and flattered. He recovered from the moment he was stunned. He replied respectfully and thanked him.

As for the old lady's abrupt topic, Arthur was not surprised, because the butler Paul told him before that, under normal circumstances, the old lady usually starts a conversation with a very simple question: "Are you from afar? "Or "How are you?"

  As soon as this question was raised, the next step was to talk about transportation, riding methods, and travel comfort.

  Facts, as the butler Paul told him, the old lady’s second question was about the means of transportation. Arthur also answered it respectfully and seriously. The smile on the old lady’s face was very kind from beginning to end.

And the scene where the old lady stopped chatting with Arthur became the absolute focus in the whole hall, whether it was the guests who knew or did not know Arthur Bolin, at this time, to Arthur Bolin, everyone present Have a new understanding.

   Eddie, who stood by Arthur, maintained an elegant lady's posture throughout the whole process, respectful and nervous, and was full of surprises watching the old lady chat with his brother cordially.

   The content of the chat was even more surprising to Eddie. She couldn't imagine that the old lady turned out to be a loyal reader of Arthur's "Bowling Manor", and she not only liked the plot, but also focused on the objects used by the characters in the book.

   even corrected Arthur's historical fallacy. For example, the Jun official described in the book wears a medal that does not conform to historical facts. The epoch of the novel is World War I, but the medal worn by the jun officer did not appear until after World War II. . .

  Eddie was even more flattered. In her heart, the old lady even chatted with her a few words, and even asked her about the shooting progress of "Bolin Manor" and encouraged her to perform well.

For five full minutes, the old lady and Arthur talked for five minutes, which almost shocked all the guests present, including the family behind the old lady. At this time, Arthur's heart could not be kept calm, and it was also an incomparable consternation. , Full of joy and doubts, but in any case, this is a supreme honor for him and the Bolling family.

  Respectfully salute, and send the old lady and her family forward. Arthur can clearly feel that everyone who walked in front of him looked at him with curiosity and scrutiny.

However, Arthur didn’t care at all, and the excitement he had had long since calmed down. He was neither humble nor humble with a calm and graceful smile. He calmly smiled with every look at him, indicating that as long as a person has strength, he will have confidence. Only with strength can we get the respect and admiration of others.

   All the invited guests, in two pairs, quietly and orderly followed the steps of the old lady’s family into the magnificent restaurant.

The two rows of long tables at the banquet were filled with large blooming flowers, and the golden candlesticks were shining under the light. The distance between each chair in the banquet was about 45 cm, and the distance between the chairs and the table was about 45 cm. Equally, the hundreds of glasses placed on the dining table are equally spaced.

   There are 19 service stations around the table, and each service station has a waiter, valet, butler and wine butler, who use a signal light system to coordinate the entire process.

   When everyone was seated, the dinner officially started. The old lady gave a speech first, welcoming all the guests. It was kind and brief. After a round of applause, everyone sat down and started eating.

It is really important for the entire dinner party to maintain a standard sitting in a precarious manner. The back should never be leaned against the back of the chair, no sound can be made when eating or drinking, and knives and forks should be very careful when touching the dishes. People talk, but also appreciate and respond to the music played by the bagpipe player.

At a royal banquet, there are many tedious etiquettes to pay attention to and abide by, and there are two most important principles. The first is that when the old lady stands up, everyone should stand up, and the second is after the old lady stops eating. , Everyone, no matter if you eat or not, you have to stop!

   The dishes for dinner tonight were also made by the old lady herself. They were very rich. They were not as worried as before. The dishes served were British-style dark dishes. . .

   steamed halibut fillet with watercress mousse, asparagus and sauce. Seasonal Windsor lamb tenderloin with spices, seasonal vegetables and sauces. Strawberry shortbread with lemon horse oil. Selection of various fresh fruits, coffee and fancy pastries.

   Although the old lady spent several days planning the dinner with JING's heart, she still "eats fast". According to royal etiquette, guests cannot continue to eat after Queen eats.

   So ~www.readwn.com~ When the old lady finished her meal, everyone including Arthur finished her meal quietly and orderly, and the dinner was over, and then it was time for the prom.

  . . . . . . .

   Until about ten thirty in the middle of the night, Arthur took Eddie with a big smile, left the castle and returned to the hotel by car.

Seeing Eddie, who was very happy because he met so many new friends, the corners of Arthur's mouth rose slightly, and he smiled meaningfully. I have to say that the chat with the old lady that focused on everyone’s attention was indeed very effective. Effect.

   In the following dances, their siblings became the focus of the grandson and granddaughter second only to the old lady. People kept coming up to invite them to dance, and Arthur’s first dance was with the old lady’s granddaughter.

It’s a pity that the other party is not Arthur’s food. Moreover, Arthur does not want to have too many entanglements with the female juniors of the old lady’s family. It is not only a matter of appearance, but more importantly, it is insecure and easily caught , So less involved in subtlety. . .

   However, it was Eddie who surprised a lot of young aristocratic gentlemen, which was a surprise.

   What made Arthur most happy was that he re-established contact with a group of veteran nobles, and once again received a hunting invitation from the old lady's old son, and everyone met to hunt together tomorrow.

   This is undoubtedly another big gain for him this time, because in order to make his brother Edmond have a future, the connections in this circle are the most important!
