Chapter 125: Division
The Prince of Wales is the younger sister, so what belongs to the younger sister should belong to the older sister. King George V of England was not polite at all and filled a glass with red wine. As a member of the British family, she naturally liked red wine. At this time, she held the wine glass, stood in front of the huge French window, and took a sip of the wine.
"That's all I want to say. Do you have anything to add?"
No one spoke, and it was obvious that there was nothing to add.
"Official business is over, now it's time for personal matters," King George V of England said suddenly.
"What business, what personal matter?" Seeing everyone gathered together, Hood naturally had to join in the fun.
Unlike the conversation between King George V and the Prince of Wales, Lion remained silent throughout the conversation, but judging from her thoughtful expression, she had some thoughts. Hood blinked throughout the conversation, like a mascot, and didn't understand anything from beginning to end. What was meant by muddying the waters, and what was meant by diverting attention...
King George V of England glanced at Hood. She would not give up the glory of the Royal Navy as long as there was a chance to save it.
"Hey, hey, hey, George, what do you mean by that look?" Hood asked sharply.
"It means nothing," replied King George V.
"I saw it all. I tell you, my eyes are sharp." Hood said, "No matter how far away that thief is, I can see it all. My ears are also sharp. No matter how far away that thief is, I can hear it all."
Even if it was German, King George V of England could give a fair and impartial evaluation. She was sure that Bismarck was definitely not the kind of person who liked to play tricks. She said, "Is it really not your paranoia?"
"No," Hood said. "Derry can attest to that."
"Delhi is what you say..." King George V said, "Well, let's not discuss this anymore, now..."
King George V turned his head and looked at Su Xia lying on the bed. He hugged the orange cat Ginger and played with his phone. He hesitated and said, "It's not a good idea to lie down all the time... Sometimes walking more is more conducive to recovery. I will take a walk with the admiral later."
Shi has been silent. She just doesn't like to pay attention to those trivial matters. Now she has something to say: "George, there are so many things waiting for you to deal with, and none of them can be done without you... Let me take care of the matter of accompanying the admiral for a walk."
King George V of England did not change his expression and asked in return: "Lion, can you take care of people... In the end, will you accompany the admiral, or will the admiral accompany you?"
King George V continued: "I have told Wales about those matters, and Wales will handle them."
"Sister?" The Prince of Wales was stunned and narrowed his eyes dangerously, but did not react because of her identity as a younger sister. She needed an explanation.
The Prince of Wales recognized his sister, King George V, but that was all. The reason was simple. King George V had almost never fought since he joined the garrison. As a veteran of the garrison, she had also made great contributions to the garrison and had many medals and commemorative medals.
"Wales, why are you in such a hurry..." King George V said, "I just want to take a walk with the admiral. Other than that... dinner, supper, and where the admiral stays at night... I won't interfere."
Walking with the Admiral is definitely not the best choice among so many options, but it is definitely the easiest to achieve. Although other choices are good, the younger sister Duke of York, St. George, the Nelson sisters, the three glorious sisters... none of them are here, and the possibility of Lexington and Missouri coming over cannot be ruled out. Only meat in your mouth is meat.
The Queen Mother and the Prince of Wales were still one step behind and failed to see the conspiracy of King George V of England, or they were blinded by greed. In short, they were silent and their hearts were moved.
Shi imagined a scene like that. She was lying on the bed in her nightgown, holding her chin and looking at someone standing beside the bed. Then she stretched out her feet... She glanced at the vanguard, who looked confused. She had no choice but to speak up: "The admiral has been lying here for a day... I can't keep bothering Wales."
The Prince of Wales smiled wryly: "It's been a hassle for so long, so let it be."
"How about I say something?" King George V of England smiled. Appearing as an arbitrator when necessary would help strengthen his authority.
The king is not necessarily the one with the strongest martial arts. The king is the king by blood? He must be an arbitrator of power. All nobles, big and small, need him to speak for them. And what he has to do is to pull the weak, beat the strong, balance the forces of all parties, and ensure that everyone cannot do without him. The so-called emperor's mind is nothing more than this.
Even if they are sisters, where there are people there are rivers and lakes. King George V of England made a good calculation, but...
"I want the admiral to have afternoon tea with me." Hood is the white lotus that emerges from the mud without being stained.
Afternoon tea time is from three to five, isn't it this time? You are deliberately ruining my plan, King George V said: "Hu De, you can find someone else to accompany you for afternoon tea, the Royal Ark, the Elizabeth, the Warspite, the Royal Oak... The admiral is not free to accompany you."
"I don't care, I just want the admiral to have afternoon tea with me." Hood said, "I just want the admiral to have afternoon tea with me." She didn't have so many thoughts, she just simply wanted to have afternoon tea with the admiral.
King George V of England wanted to rub his forehead. He had made all kinds of plans, but he had not accounted for Hood. What should he do when facing a rogue?
King George V of England said patiently: "The Admiral will take a walk with me later..." He felt dizzy, "I will take a walk with the Admiral later... No, for the Admiral's recovery, it is better to walk for a while, I will be responsible for accompanying him."
The vanguard stood aside, and she finally understood that each of these people wanted the admiral to accompany them.
The admiral just ate London's food. Even if he has recovered a little now, he hasn't recovered completely yet. Are you thinking about him? She couldn't remember where she saw that part - he didn't care about her life or death, he only cared whether she could satisfy him. She just recovered a little...
Of course, everyone was not like what the vanguard thought, of course, they judged that the admiral had recovered, so they made so many demands. Hood said: "The admiral is fine, he has recovered , and he doesn't need to recover again. Look at him... He can lift such heavy ginger without any problem. Normally, I find it too heavy to lift it, but he looks like nothing happened."
King George V said: "The lips are still pale..."
"So we have to have afternoon tea and eat more..." Hood didn't have any idea of monopolizing the party. She just wanted to have lunch with the admiral. "Everyone come together. Let's have afternoon tea and lunch with the admiral. Let's go to the garden managed by Unicorn. I'll ask Renown to prepare..."
King George V of England was helpless. Obviously, Hood's proposal had impressed everyone and was difficult to object to. He could only settle for the second best: "Okay, okay, afternoon tea is afternoon tea... Well," after all, it was not Parliament, so King George V of England was too lazy to hide it, "I just want the admiral to have dinner with me..." For a candlelight dinner, should he find someone from the French or Italian department to prepare?
The lion and the Prince of Wales looked at each other. Confrontation or compromise?
Su Xia was lying on the bed. He was actually very curious about what everyone was discussing beside the French window, especially the occasional glances at him. He wanted to get out of bed and listen. In his current state, it was difficult to carry such a heavy ginger cat around. Otherwise, should he put the cat down?
If you think about it, there is nothing to be curious about. No one will harm him. If there is really something, just ask him afterwards. As expected, it is best to lie on the bed with a cat and play with the phone. In the end, he still did not move.
"Admiral..."
Su Xia didn't know how much time had passed. When she heard the voice and looked up, she saw Qianwei standing by the bed. No one stayed by the floor-to-ceiling window. Instead, some were reading, some were drinking red wine, and some were making phone calls.
"Yeah." Su Xia responded, seeing that Qianwei seemed to have something to say, "Qianwei, you look like you want to say something but hesitate... Is there something?"
Why should she say it? Qianwei really wanted to refuse.
The vanguard coughed and said, "Is the admiral okay?"
"Nothing happened."
"Admiral, your next arrangements are to accompany everyone for afternoon tea first, and then Sister George will prepare dinner. In the evening..."
Su Xia blinked and said, "You arranged everything for me, but you didn't ask for my opinion?"
"That..." Su Xia said.
"If the Admiral has no objection, then it's settled."
