The Queen, dressed in a noblewoman's military uniform, slowly walked down the stairs under the accompaniment of a group of British Empire government officials.
When she walked over, some of the European representatives came forward to greet her, and the local dignitaries also went over to greet her. Although the British Empire's royal family was no longer in power, the influence of the former empire where the sun never set was still well-known in Europe. The British Empire's royal family was also the oldest country with a monarchy system. Although its real power was not as strong as that of the prime minister's government, the royal family had always been a kind of faith in the hearts of the people of the Empire, so the Queen's birthday party was still enough to attract many big shots.
Accompanied by many princes and princes, the Queen smiled and greeted the guests one by one. She was still relatively amiable at her age.
She smiled and thanked the distinguished guests. "Thank you very much for coming to my 88th birthday. You're all old familiar faces, so don't be shy and have fun."
Then, with the help of someone, she walked down the stairs and went to a sofa to chat with the dignitaries. Tonight, there were plenty of drinks and snacks.
Many people with gifts walked to the sofa and made a knight's salute, then presented their gifts, which made the old woman very happy.
Will asked someone to carry a glass box covered with a white cloth, which made people curious about what it was. He came to the Queen and made a knight's salute, saying, "Grandma, I've prepared a gift for you."
"Oh? Will gives the best gift every year. I wonder what gift he prepared for Grandma this year? Quick, show it to Grandma. "
Will smiled proudly. Just as Ace said, Will lived a free and easy life without the pressure of being a prince. Naturally, he was unscrupulous in making friends with people, and the money he got to curry favor with and bribe people was more abundant. Every year, his gifts were definitely luxurious or expensive.
He pursed his lips, and a royal soldier lifted the white cloth. In the transparent glass, a beautiful crown covered with pearls and gems shone there, causing the people present to exclaim.
"Isn't this … the crown of the last century? I remember seeing it in the history books. "
"I think I've seen this crown somewhere before."
"I think I've seen it in the exhibition at the Palace of Fontainebleau in France."
"Yes, yes, isn't that the crown of Napoleon III?"
Seeing that everyone was so curious, Will smiled. "The real crown was lost in the war. Some time ago, I heard that the Palace of Fontainebleau was robbed. I also inquired about it. It can be said that it took a lot of effort to get this crown from the middleman at a high price. Although this crown is only a replica, it does not affect its precious collection value. Grandson knows that Grandmother likes to collect crowns, so I added this crown for you as a present for your 89th birthday."
The Queen of England grinned, indicating that she was very happy. It was as if this was the only gift she liked that night.
"Yes … yes, Will. That's very kind of you. I like this gift very much, but I can't just accept it casually. Tell me what you want, and I'll try my best to satisfy you. "
As soon as he said that, the faces of Lin Chuxue's family changed.
A gleam of success flashed in Will's eyes.
Terry's family's expressions changed, especially when they saw that the crown was in Will's hands. Terry's eldest son was furious. "That thief! He really was the one who stole our things!"
Terry's eldest son's face was very ugly as if he had been fed sh * t.
At this moment, Will made a knight's bow and said to the Queen, "Grandma, I'm not young anymore. I want Grandma to be a witness to my proposal."
The Queen's wrinkled face showed surprise. "Oh? You already have someone you like? Why don't you say it? Grandma will be the witness for you. "
Will was very happy and immediately said in a gentlemanly manner, "Grandma, the person I like is here. I want to marry the eldest daughter of the Lin Family, Nicole, as my princess."
The crowd immediately went into an uproar.
Terry's eldest son was anxious. "Dad, we can't let the Lin Family rise, or else we'll be in danger."
"Don't act rashly, I don't need you to teach me." Terry stopped his son.
Lin Chuxue suddenly became the focus of everyone's attention, including the Queen.
The Queen looked down at her and smiled. "My grandson is usually not bad, but I don't know about the Lin Family. What do you mean?"
Lin Guiren and his wife's faces were very ugly. Lin Guiren was just about to refuse, but the third prince didn't give him the chance. He quickly said to the Queen, "Nicole already agreed, Grandma."
"Really?" The Queen looked at Lin Chuxue happily.
Will immediately looked at Mama Lin's father and sent a warning signal.
The core members of the Lin Family all came up and smiled. "That's true, Nicole agreed to Prince Will's proposal. However, Nicole likes romance after all, and the third prince also wants to be a witness in front of so many people, so I hope you can give them your blessings in front of the Queen."
The Queen chuckled. "So that's how it is. I've always wondered who the man she likes is. It turns out that our Will is blessed. The Rose of England married into the royal family in the end. This is a good thing. I'll definitely give my blessings to her. Nicole, did you really agree to Will's proposal? "
Will immediately knelt down on one knee. "Nicole, will you marry me?"
As he spoke, he took out a box of wedding rings from his suit sleeves and stared straight at Lin Chuxue.
Lin Chuxue looked at him and then at the people around her. She pursed her lips and gritted her teeth. She originally wanted to refuse, but she saw that her grandpa and the others were looking at her with warning eyes, and more of them were looking at her with pleading eyes.
Lin Guiren wanted to say something, but he was stopped by his father-in-law. He scolded in a low voice, "You don't want to save the company anymore?"
Lin Guiren: "Even so, I can't use my daughter's happiness to save it."
Immediately, he said loudly in front of everyone, "I'm afraid I can't agree to this marriage!"
There was an uproar at the scene.
The Queen frowned, and Will also pulled a long face.
The Queen asked, "Why can't you agree? Since both sides have agreed, and it's a matter between young people, as parents, we should be more generous. After all, Nicole is 24 years old, she's not young anymore. "
Lin Guiren said hesitantly, "What I mean is, after all, my bloodline isn't noble enough. I'm afraid Nicole isn't good enough for Prince Will."
Will: "Even if Nicole is a refugee beggar, I will still marry her."
Lin Guiren: "Pfft, if my daughter isn't beautiful, would you marry her?"
"You still have to ask Nicole. Since it's about the freedom of love between young people, you should ask her." As Lin Guiren spoke, he looked at Lin Chuxue and gave her a determined look. No matter what decision she made, her father would support her.
Lin Chuxue had been gritting her teeth the whole time, and at this moment, she subconsciously turned around and looked at the door of the party.
Xu Cheng, what should I do?
