Hollywood Secret Garden

Chapter 49 At Buckingham Palace

Buckingham Palace was brightly lit, and the already extravagant ivory and gold decorations in the reception hall had been rearranged to make it even more gorgeous and luxurious.

"God bless you, Your Majesty." The old duke knelt down on one knee, and made a standard curtsy that would make many people ashamed. At his age, it is completely unnecessary, but the old duke has a higher opinion of royal etiquette. Everything weighs.

"It's been a long time since I saw you, Duke." Elizabeth II had a gentle smile on her face, and then looked at Angela who was beside him.

The little girl saluted generously, and this time she really held up the corners of her skirt, but fortunately, her grandfather didn't ask her to be as perfect as him.

"Chris, you've grown taller again." Her Majesty still smiled.

Although surprised that Queen Elizabeth II still remembered her name, Angela did not show it on her face, and also smiled and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty."

She was very surprised. In any case, the Albert family was at the outermost end of the family tree of the British royal family, but why would grandpa always be invited to every royal gathering?There must be some ulterior secret between Grandpa and Her Majesty the Queen, Angela thought irresponsibly.

It is a hard job to come to Buckingham Palace. Even though the modern etiquette has been reduced a lot, the royal family has its own rules and traditions. For little girls, it is really painful to abide by these things, but who let She was caught by her grandfather.However, fortunately, there are still people who make her happy in the royal family. It is not Prince Philip next to Elizabeth II, nor is it Prince Charles who always has a bitter face behind him, but the Crown Prince. That English rose with outstanding temperament.

In her previous life, Angela didn't know much about Princess Diana, and she only knew a little about the emotional conflict between her and Charles. The only thing she knew was the car accident six years later, and this was after watching the movie "The Queen" Just went to understand.

To be honest, Diana is not the kind of very beautiful woman, but she has her own unique temperament, people can't help but look at her, and she is approachable, no wonder she is called the commoner princess, although Angela Doesn't adore her, but is still attracted to her.

Although the little girl really wanted to chat with His Royal Highness after the dinner - she had done this before, but those two princes were a problem, look, aren't those two brats looking this way?Harry was better, and gave her a smile. The guy William raised his head and hummed with his nose up. The little girl curled her lips secretly. What a stinky child, what are you doing with your nose so high, you are not a pig.

Nearly a hundred non-direct members of the royal family were invited to today's New Year's dinner. The waiters specially prepared an extra-long table. Against the backdrop of the gorgeous decoration on the table, the people sitting at the end must not be able to see the queen in front of them clearly. Your Majesty, but those sitting at the end are all children, who cares if the children can see Her Majesty the Queen?

After entering the table, Angela closed her mouth. The etiquette of the royal family dining is not as simple as that in the grandfather's manor. Although her mother has always taught her behavior very strictly, she needs to adapt to what she says to prevent wrong words The best way is not to say anything, although there are children around, most of them don't know each other, so why bother with them.

The gorgeous and sumptuous dinner was extremely depressing in Angela's eyes. Except for Elizabeth II's new year's toast, the rest of the time was the same as before. There is always a layer of invisible and intangible things between them, even between children. No wonder Her Royal Highness feels sad. This is a place that no one who advocates freedom will like-every time the little girl always To feel overwhelmed.

Fortunately, the chefs at Buckingham Palace are still relatively good. There are only a few types of British cuisine, such as butter pudding, roast tender lamb, salmon, wild duck, etc., and ice cream in summer, but in their hands, they can always change different delicacies. Although you can't eat it fast, it's good to chew slowly.

The dinner was not long, after all, Westerners do not like to do everything at the table like Easterners, and the next thing is the highlight of this family dinner - the dance.

The New Year's Ball is held in the Royal Ballroom, the largest room in Buckingham Palace. This ballroom is one of the largest rooms in the palace. It was built for Queen Victoria in 1850. The hall is decorated with white and gold. There are huge crystal chandeliers, and scenes from the War of the Roses in the [-]th century are painted on the top of the surrounding walls.

At the beginning, Her Majesty and her husband danced together first, and then the crown prince and princess, but Charles was obviously not very interested, and ended hastily. Angela, who saw it, understood after a little thought. In 92, Charles The relationship with Diana had reached a trough, and now it was just a sign. Even if they danced a hastily, the two of them didn't show anything else. It seems that members of the direct royal family will naturally be able to cover up this kind of clever skill.

After Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Philip sat down on the big chairs, the ball officially began, and the gentlemen began to invite their favorite dance partners, except for Grandpa, who has been standing by her side, no one invited, Angela I understand his thoughts. After my grandmother passed away at the age of 6, my grandfather never married. The relationship between him and her seems plain, but in fact it is extremely deep.

So what she has to do now is try to hide herself behind her grandpa, and don't be invited by other little boys, especially some stinky kid, otherwise, according to her habit of saying no, her heels should be swollen after the prom.

But, as the old saying goes, some things get harder the harder they try to escape.

"This beautiful lady, can I invite you to dance?" The voice came from behind. Although the tone and words were very formal, the glee between the teeth was very obvious.

Angela rolled her eyes, turned around and looked at the 10-year-old Prince William who touched her at some point in front of her. She couldn't hide the pride in her eyes, and she couldn't help grinding her teeth. If it was someone else, she might still be able to muster up the courage She refused, but she couldn't say no to this brat with grandpa by his side.

"I'm honored, Your Highness." The little girl managed to hide her gnashing of teeth, and took William's hand.

The two entered the dance floor holding hands, and danced to the tune of "The Blue Danube" among the adults. Angela struggled to follow the beat, and at the same time, she had to be careful not to step on the corners of her skirt. She was not good at few things, But dancing is one of them.

"William, you did it on purpose." The little girl couldn't help but whispered viciously in the little prince's ear after a twist.

William raised his eyebrows proudly, and when he turned around again, he leaned into Angela's ear and said, "Yes, I did it on purpose. I think since you are called a genius by your mother, you must have a way to keep your dance until you finish dancing." Stabilize the heel."

Damn brat!Angela hated it in her heart, although she also knew that as a prince, William would never do such an inappropriate thing, but it was really annoying to come over like this under his leadership, so she hated it In dancing, the male is always dominant in the pas de deux.

If I had known that that summer, I shouldn't have teased this damned vengeance brat out of curiosity!The little girl gritted her teeth and persisted, taking deep breaths, taking deep breaths, and now, every time she took a step, the pain in her heels would increase. Fortunately, the heels were not too high, and she could barely bear them. Having physical contact made her feel a little disgusted, which is really strange. You must know that she didn't have this kind of reaction when she came into contact with Edward Furlong a few months ago. What's going on?

After thinking about it, Angela put this aside. She doesn't have so much attention to think about it now, so let's get through the most uncomfortable moment first, and, fortunately, it's not dancing now Body-fitting dance, otherwise, if William supported her waist, God knows if she would throw the prince over his shoulder when she got excited.

Finally, the song was over. The little girl's face was flushed, her chest was heaving, and she was dripping with sweat. She stared at William bitterly, and said in a low voice, "Are you satisfied, Your Highness?"

But there was no response to even calling a few times. Angela frowned and looked intently, only to realize that this dead brat was staring at her without blinking. Being caught, the little girl hurriedly lifted her skirt and wanted to leave, but she became a little impatient, and when she turned around, the heel of her right foot suddenly made a light sound, causing her body to suddenly tilt to the right.Fortunately, before she reacted and made a big move, someone had already supported her from behind.

"What a pity, Miss Genius, you performed very well throughout the dance, but it's a pity you couldn't make it to the end." A joking voice sounded, and you didn't need to guess who it was.

"I really don't know, it turns out that the second heir to the throne is so narrow-minded." Angela snorted without looking back, and at the same time pushed his hand away. Why are they so similar?That whoever helped her up last time was really unlucky.

"Hey, it seems like you should thank me, otherwise you would have made a big fool of yourself just now!" William's tone was a little annoyed.

"Then, I thank you very much, Your Highness." The little girl immediately turned her head and gave him a big blank stare, and walked towards her grandfather without looking back.
