British writer
Chapter 60
Lyceum Theater.
The performance on stage is drawing to a close with the first act.
There were bursts of wild laughter from the first floor of the theater:
"Hahahahaha!"
They reached Cecil's ears like endless taunts.
Wodehouse said with a smile: "Your Excellency, is No. 10 Downing Street like this? The affairs officer can tell the Prime Minister... Hehehe, sorry, I asked too much."
Cecil clenched his fists,
He was 10,000% sure that Lu Shi was definitely instructed by the Liberal Party to know so many "political secrets".
And the most unacceptable point:
In "Yes! In The Prime Minister, Jim can occasionally force Humphrey to back down,
In reality, Cecil had to think about a little reform, which made him physically and mentally exhausted.
This gave him a very absurd illusion:
Maybe...maybe...probably...maybe...not as good as Jim?
As soon as he had this idea, Cecil quickly took a sip of red wine, suppressed it, and then asked Erwin next to him: "Sir Erwin, is the writer of this play next door in Bag One... Ser Erwin?"
Erwin was staring at the stage in a daze,
Suddenly, he shuddered,
"Your Excellency the Prime Minister?"
Cecil frowned,
"Sir, what are you thinking?"
"Goo..."
Erwin swallowed.
In this "Yes! In "Prime Minister", Prime Minister Jim Harker is undoubtedly a being played around by the affairs officials,
If the screenwriter is satirizing the real cabinet, the spearhead will undoubtedly be pointed at Cecil. If it is used properly, the excessive military expenditure of the Royal Navy may be passed through this "Yes! "Prime Minister" is pushed to the incompetent prime minister,
Of course, it is not really pushed to Cecil, after all, the cabinet is not so stupid, but public opinion can create momentum,
Maybe, "Yes! The Prime Minister can be a good opportunity for the Royal Navy to balance its accounts,
Once in a lifetime opportunity!
Erwin made a small calculation in his mind.
Cecil didn't know what he was thinking, so he continued the question just now: "Just now Sir Wodehouse said that the two playwrights are in box one?"
Erwin showed a defensive attitude,
He leaned back, sinking his body into the back of the chair,
"Your Excellency, do you want to?"
...
Box one.
"Wonderful! It's so wonderful!"
Since the beginning of the performance, the queen's mouth has not closed, either laughing or praising the script.
Lu Shi and Bernard Shaw stood beside him in shock,
They were worried that the queen would be too emotional and accidentally burst her blood vessels.
Fortunately, the intermission has come,
The curtain was slowly pulled up, turning the stage into darkness.
But the theater is much more lively than before,
When the actors perform, the audience will try to control the volume of laughter, unless it is unbearable,
During the intermission, they can speak freely and discuss the plot.
The air was noisy.
The queen put aside the small brass binoculars used to watch the stage, then stretched in satisfaction,
The old waist made a "creaking" sound.
Lu Shi and Bernard Shaw hurriedly looked away.
see no evil,
The Queen's behavior was clearly out of line with royal protocol.
Margarita laughs,
"Your Majesty, I have already told you that "Yes! The Prime Minister" is very interesting."
With outsiders around, she wouldn't call the queen "grandmother".
The queen could not help but nod,
"Well. It's a pity that the facilities in the Lyceum Theater are so-so. This chair is made so well that it hurts my waist and ribs."
Stephenson asked, "May I help you move?"
the queen shook her head,
"No, no, it will be a big loss if I'm not in my seat when the show starts later. I don't want to miss a second of this drama."
With that said, when the Queen turned to Lu,
Unexpectedly, just as she was about to speak, there was a knock on the door outside.
Stephenson frowned,
"How do these theater people do things!? Didn't you just tell them not to bother you!?"
The queen waved her hand and said magnanimously: "Flake, we are acting low-key when we come out this time, and the theater staff don't know our true identities, so you don't have to make things difficult for them."
Stephenson was a little depressed.
The queen's statues and huge paintings are almost all over various important landmarks in London,
During this trip, although the queen deliberately covered her appearance with a hat and collar, anyone who pays close attention to it must still be able to vaguely see the clues.
Strangely, along the way, no one recognized him,
Maybe it's the darkness under the lights.
At this time, the knocking on the door became louder and louder.
thump thump——
Stephenson was speechless: "Tsk..."
He whispered, "Your Majesty, shall I open the door?"
The queen changed to a more comfortable sitting position, led herself into the darkness as much as possible, and then said, "Go."
Stephenson walked over to the door.
I saw the service staff of the theater standing at the door,
He subconsciously looked into the No. 1 box, but was directly blocked by Stephenson.
"Don't look around!"
The waiter quickly bowed his head,
"I wonder if Mr. Xiao and Mr. Lu have time now..."
Stephenson frowned,
"No!"
With that said, he was about to close the door.
Unexpectedly, the queen spoke: "Flake, the two rightful masters are here, and it's not your turn to refuse for them."
Stephenson had no choice but to make way,
He was worried that the waiter would bump into the queen, so he followed her closely.
Fortunately, the waiter went straight to Lu Shi and whispered.
Lu Shi was surprised,
"The private room next door? It's not Church next door... um... who do you think wants to buy me a drink?"
The waiter was also helpless.
"A gentleman calling himself 'Salisbury.'"
Salisbury, a small town in Wiltshire in southern England, has the highest Catholic church in the UK, and the famous prehistoric Stonehenge stands on the field not far from the city.
Lu Shi was surprised,
"who?"
As soon as the words fell, the queen's old laughter came from beside her,
"Professor Lu can write such an excellent political satire, why doesn't he even have this bit of political common sense? The Marquess of Salisbury is the current prime minister."
Although Lu Shi had long considered the possibility of the Prime Minister's visit, he did not expect it to be so soon.
He pondered for a moment,
"The Prime Minister bought me a drink?"
As a result, the waiter froze in place without answering.
The queen on the side said: "This young man probably didn't expect that he had been in close contact with the prime minister just now, so he couldn't react."
She said to the waiter: "Young man, don't panic. You send a message to His Excellency Prime Minister, just say that Mr. Lu and Mr. Xiao can't get away for the time being, and they are accompanying their friends. Their friend is Miss Margarita, the imperial servant. Miss Margarita."
The queen's voice is graceful and calm.
The waiter was stunned, and subconsciously cast his gaze over,
"Imperial?"
He vaguely felt that the old lady was somewhat familiar.
But Stephenson didn't give him a chance to continue to observe, he pushed him directly, and scolded: "Hurry up!?"
The waiter faintly felt that today's incident seemed to have pierced the sky.
He nodded hastily,
"Okay! I... I'll go right away!"
