Chapter 839: Heartbroken Queen
Li Zitao readily accepted Her Majesty's apology, and humbly expressed that she understood His Majesty's difficulties.
"Charlie, you're such a nice guy." Seeing him smiling without saying a word, Povis also knew that he didn't want to talk too much about this topic.
Some things are just fine on the surface, and everyone knows what they think in their hearts, so why bother to say so clearly to make people uncomfortable.
So, Povis changed the subject and asked: "Just now I saw you chatting happily with Elizabeth, I haven't seen her smile so beautifully for a long time."
"Yes...I think it's because she got a beloved gift, a silver tea set from Queen Victoria!" Li Zitao would not say that he was instigating Elizabeth, planning to abduct her to England to develop a relationship with his own boy Xiong.
"Oh...you are so sweet, Charlie, Elizabeth will definitely keep it." Purvis knew his daughter's hobbies very well, and this gift will keep her happy for a long time.
However, if she knew that the man in front of her was thinking about their young cabbage for her son, Bovis would immediately have the servant beat him out with a broom.
woo... woo...
A long siren sounded, and the previously well-organized manor became tense, and the personal maid who followed Povis immediately protected her and walked towards the manor.
"Charlie, come quickly." Bovis beckoned to him, bombs don't have eyes, and they won't obediently become 'dumb' just because of their status, wealth or status. '
A group of people quickly came to the downward stairs next to the manor, and George VI was already waiting at the door with his daughter and butler.
Bai Xue, who was following behind, looked a little pale. When she saw Li Zitao coming back, she hurriedly came to his side, and instinctively grabbed the corner of his clothes with her hands.
"It's okay." Patting her on the back comfortingly, a group of people entered the underground safe house, and sometimes they could hear the screams and explosions of bombs falling from above.
This scene fell into the eyes of George VI, causing him to show a playful smile, but it quickly turned into loss and anger.
I don't know how many European and American newspapers have published about Li Zitao's romantic deeds, but no one has been able to catch anything since he got married.
Just because he has a good-looking secretary by his side, making an emotional relationship won't affect him in any way.
The space in the underground safe room is very small, because there are too many precious furniture, decorations and collections that were originally placed in the rooms above.
"Are there many such things?" Sitting on the soft golden velvet cushion sofa, Li Zitao asked, pointing to the whistling and explosions above his head.
"Almost every day." Povis hugged the two daughters, but in Li Zitao's view, the two of them behaved better than their parents.
"Damn... Germany, the German guy." George VI gritted his teeth, turned and walked towards the study.
He's going to ask his Prime Minister why the RAF hasn't brought down those arrogant bastards in the sky.
In fact, the anti-aircraft guns deployed around London are constantly being loaded and fired, and the interceptor planes coming from the nearest airport are also engaged in dogfights with the enemy.
But the number of enemies is really too much, and the expected results have not been achieved for such a long time, so that NC Germany's number two, future successor, the current Air Force Marshal Goering is under tremendous pressure.
Especially after his air force let go of some 320,000 enemy troops, Goering's life in the party was not easy.
The dwarf, who valued and trusted him the most, personally called him in front of him, and became so angry that even his beloved eagle head statue was smashed into the corner of the wall.
Goering, who is proud of his favor, is paying the price for his arrogance, and in the future he will pay an even more painful price.
When George VI called Churchill, he was struggling with food supplies for the army.
After simply dealing with the king, Churchill hung up the phone, which made George VI, who was already in a bad mood, darken all afternoon and night.
Li Zitao slept soundly, but it was rare that there was no woman around him, which made him sleep very comfortably all night.
I don't even feel the urge to get up the next day.
"Your Excellency Li..." There was a knock on the door.
"Is there something wrong?" Li Zitao asked lazily while lying on the bed, without opening his eyes.
"Sorry to bother you, it's a call from America," said the butler.
"Here we go." Li Zitao immediately sat up from the bed, put on comfortable and slim casual clothes and went out.
The call was from Mary. She learned that London had been bombed one after another in recent days, so she was worried about Li Zitao's personal safety.
"I'm fine. If there are no accidents, I will return tomorrow." Li Zitao also wanted to go back early, because he felt too insecure here.
Even though his body was different from ordinary people, Li Zitao didn't think that if he was hit by a bomb, he would still be able to walk out alive.
"Be careful on the road... Aiden and Mason can't wait to see you, there are still some things you need to come back to decide...
In addition, I invited Elizabeth to come to my house as a guest, and remember to take good care of her when I come back. "Mary said in a flat tone.
Li Zitao rolled his eyes and said with a light smile, "Honey, I understand."
After a brief farewell, the two hung up the phone, and Li Zitao sat on the chair next to him and fell into deep thought.
The things that can be brought up by Mary are naturally not trivial.
But judging from the meaning in her tone, it should be a good thing, and Li Zitao couldn't help guessing what kind of good things would happen to him again.
What he knows now is that Elizabeth will follow him back to the United States, 'abducting the future daughter-in-law successfully. '
The next thing is to see Mason or Aiden. In his heart, he is more inclined to Mason, but it is difficult to determine the relationship. Maybe it is just a friend in the end.
It has been 17 hours since the bombing started, and the outside is already safe, and they have also moved back to the manor on the surface.
Looking from the manor towards London, black smoke is rising everywhere, and there are still faint shadows of fire.
"Charlie, when are you going to leave...Elizabeth will be handed over to you. I want her to stay in the United States for a longer period of time." During the meal, Povis glanced at King George VI who was bowing his head and said nothing to him. .
"I think it's time to leave later. I still have a lot of things to deal with in New York." Li Zitao planned to leave after breakfast.
Britain and Germany have just finished a round of air combat, and now the sky is clear. Fighting dog fights sounds exciting, but no one wants to actually encounter them.
"We will ask someone to arrange everything. I hope that the next time we meet, the war will be over." As the hostess, Povis tried her best to keep the meeting 'friendly' throughout the whole process, and she kept smiling despite being sad. !
