Dominate the Treacherous Realm
Chapter 828
"I don't have a love experience like yours. Our marriage, in your opinion, is probably a very standard political marriage."
She looks as usual, and she is not sad or sad because of this:
"My family still existed at that time and did not experience the great plague 30 years ago. My father and mother were really happy when they watched me get married, but I still don't know if they are happy for me."
The two stopped for a moment, waiting for the rabbit that suddenly emerged from the hole in front to run away. That big gray rabbit is actually bigger than chocolate, and it seems to be well-nourished in daily life. It originally wanted to run to Jenkins, but was frightened by the chocolate "meow~" and ran away. Although Jenkins' cats are usually timid, they are good at bullying rabbits.
"For the first few years of marriage, my memory is a little fuzzy. I know that this time is a very important time in life. You will understand this after you get married. But I only remember that I gradually became Wang's assistant. , To deal with those government affairs that have never been in contact. Yes, I didn’t know anything at first, and I gradually learned some basic things through the teaching of my spouse."
She glanced at Jenkins, which probably meant something.
"But at that time, I didn't need to bear the responsibility, or the responsibility was very small. After all, I am not the king. I have plenty of time to learn and understand."
This must be meaningful.
"But it seems that you learned well."
"He taught very well."
Queen Isabella rarely smiled in front of Jenkins:
"That period is very far away, but it is really reassuring to remember it occasionally. I am very happy that God did not make me completely confused when I am old. If even that memory is completely lost, I don't know. What do you rely on to support your own happiness?"
PS: It's not whitewashing, but a decent farewell before the characters have no other great use.
Chapter 1986 Chapter 1957 The Past
The group of people continued to walk forward, and suddenly there was a very regular sound of horse hoofs.
The royal guards immediately turned to guard, only to see Jessica Windsor wearing a neutral gray safari suit and a deerstalker hat, riding a black horse very chicly.
As for who this Jessica Windsor is, only Jenkins can tell.
"good afternoon."
She pulled the reins tightly, stopped beside everyone, and jumped off the horse.
"How can you still run around on a horse when you are so big? Also, where did your clothes come from?"
Queen Isabella was a little dissatisfied.
"I was my clothes. I heard that Jenkins came to the racecourse. I thought I could run a lap with him."
Miss J touched Jenkins' face boldly, which made Queen Isabella even more dissatisfied.
"Oh, please don't look at me with condemning eyes. You finally announced that Jenkins will succeed him. The responsibility that has been on my shoulders has finally been completely gone. Hold a cocktail party in Jenkins and invite important people from Nolan Before we celebrate, why not let me relax?"
Miss J asked, and then smiled at Jenkins:
"You were free in the past, you can go where you like, but now I am also free, there is nothing to restrain me except you. I can finally enjoy the life that should belong to me at this age."
Half of this sentence was taught by Jenkins, and half was made up by Miss J herself. This can probably be regarded as an outpouring of true feelings, even the Queen Isabella on the side can't tell if the girl she grew up is lying.
"You hate your previous life so much?"
Queen Isabella asked.
"Of course I don’t hate it, but I can’t talk about liking it. It’s just boring, yes, boring. Although I can get some sense of accomplishment, I don’t want to think of when I’m old and when I think of my twenties. Boring things."
Then she surpassed the "script" and directly kissed Jenkins on the side of the cheek, and then made a whistle, letting the horse who was grazing on the side come over and turned on the horse:
"Jenkins, I promised you a press conference at 5 o'clock in the afternoon. Remember to prepare early. I will arrange a carriage to pick you up at that time. Now, let me have a good run~"
After finished speaking, he leaned on his horse, and rode his horse to the distance on the grass field under the gaze of everyone.
"Did you arrange for her to appear now?"
After Miss J's figure was completely gone, Queen Isabella asked.
"Of course not, and you just raised the topic about the young age."
But it was indeed Jenkins who used the ability of "Simultaneous Feelings" to tell the content of the topic to the dismounted Miss J.
The two continued to move forward, and there was no more discussion about Miss J who was going away.
"Jessica also makes sense. A girl her age really needs some freedom to experience life. Otherwise, after getting married and having children, she will never know what freedom is like."
"Please don't make me so bad."
Jenkins said.
"It's not to say you are bad, but to describe a common phenomenon. Jenkins, I have lived for so long. From half a century ago to the present, everything is changing rapidly, our lives, our buildings, In our country, the only thing that remains unchanged is the poor desire for control and expression of men. The girls before marriage are like larks in the spotlight, and the ladies after marriage are sparrows trapped in cages. This world It's always like this, even if everything is changing, this will never change."
Jenkins really cannot refute this point, at least in his opinion, even if the world develops for another two hundred years, Queen Isabella’s view is probably still correct.
"Then let's continue to talk about you, after the death of the first king, did you inherit the throne immediately?"
This is a story from the last era, Jenkins has never inquired about.
"Of course not. At that time, although there were very few descendants of the Middleton family, it was not just your family as it is now. The first king suddenly passed away due to illness. He left a will, but no one can prove that the will is True. Even I can only admit the content of the will. The king promised verbally, but none of the witnesses who should have appeared after the death of the king. I don’t know what happened..... .
According to the usual practice, most of the private property is left to me. This is what I deserve, and no one will object. You have probably heard the rumor that the first king left the throne to me. In fact, the will is written like this. Before the first king passed away, he told me this way, but only I knew about that verbal promise. Now that I have ruled this country for more than half a century, I can certainly convince everyone of this, but at that time I didn't even dare to speak about it. "
Jenkins understands this very well, in such an awkward position, no one would believe her.
"So, the throne should belong to the Grand Duke of Sidrol who was still alive at the time."
This grand prince has passed away a long time ago. He is actually the distant cousin of the previous king. In other words, he shares the same great-grandfather with the prince, and his blood relationship is similar to Jenkins and Sigrid.
The relationship between the great prince and the king is quite bad. Even the original owner half a century later, he has heard that the two descendants of Middleton almost made the guards fight in the opera house.
It is said that the contradiction was accumulated in the previous generations, and it is also related to the throne. These are the secret history of the palace, and only when Jenkins officially moves into Cold Spring Palace can he have a chance to understand the truth.
"But before the succession to the throne began, Sidrol also passed away because of a terrible accident..."
"Really just an accident?"
Because of this problem, Queen Isabella glanced at Jenkins:
"In fact, I am also very curious as to whether this is an accident. You don't have to doubt me. I was just the young widow of the ancestor. I didn't have the power to assassinate a duke without leaving any traces."
"I didn't doubt you."
He quickly denied that the other party was telling the truth.
"After the death of the Grand Duke, according to the Act of Succession to the Throne, the successor is the second-ranked Countess Ruth Chaidaro."
"She died too?"
"Of course not, how could it be possible to die two heirs in succession..."
I paused after talking about it, probably because I thought of murdering multiple heirs in a row.
"The Countess and the Middleton family are relatives separated by blood from far away, and shouldn't actually be counted as members of the family. Her reputation is very bad, and it was very bad a long time ago. When people find her, notify the throne. When it fell on her, the woman said that after inheriting the throne, she would make her face a member of the House of Lords..."
The old man shook his head, stopped again with Jenkins, and watched the young men riding horses in the distance. Although the horseshoe stepping on the grass will not raise dust, the vibration of the ground can still barely be felt at such a distance.
"That woman was rejected by me. Although I don't have the right to inherit, I still have some right to speak when it comes to succession to the throne. Moreover, no one really likes that woman. Even if the aristocrats with different intentions want a puppet, they must at least look for it. A puppet with a good reputation.
In short, I found a circle, and there was no suitable candidate. During the time when the throne was vacant, all the affairs of this country were handled by me. So people accepted the reality and believed part of the content of the will. According to the will, I would inherit the throne. "
She paused, not knowing what she recalled:
"This was quite strange to me at that time. Even though the king once said that he wanted to leave the throne to me, I didn't have any mental preparation. I didn't even think about it. Except for friends like Madeleine, I don’t have any supporters, no followers. In the first few years, I was really troubled, everything at home and abroad, and the opposition..."
She probably fell into her own memory, her voice gradually lowered and she didn't feel it. Jenkins didn't bother her either, but continued to follow her.
The sun was covered by the gray fog, and the wind gradually rose, but it really brought some coolness.
"Good afternoon~"
It was a familiar voice again. Jessica Windsor stood not far away and waved to this side. This must be waved towards Jenkins. She was wearing a beautiful blue dress, and behind her stood two maids, like aristocratic ladies coming for an outing.
looked at Jenkins approaching with a gentle smile on his face, and his sweet expression made the thick honey-like emotions easily revealed.
She walked quickly and came to Jenkins to hug him:
"I knew you would be here."
"Jessica, why did you change a dress so quickly?"
Queen Isabella woke up from her memories and asked the young girl she was familiar with unexpectedly.
Jessica shook her head:
"I always wear this one."
talking and looking at the two maids behind them, they immediately proved that since Jessica came to the racecourse an hour ago, they had always been wearing this beautiful skirt and had not changed clothes.
Jessica looked at Jenkins with her back hand, and stood on her toes slightly, showing a somewhat reserved and shy look:
"Is there time in the evening to have dinner together?"
"Oh, no, I have to go home for dinner, do you want to come?"
"of course."
She smiled and nodded, then said:
"Remember to go home early. Today, you are also very beautiful. Let me see. You are now called ‘Fabric’s star’."
"I just left the city for three hours, why..."
"People are always keen on this kind of thing, especially when there are charming ladies and praiseworthy conspiracies. I know this is difficult for you, but now you have finally received your majesty's approval, and you can finally get through it. After the hardest days, I will get better in the future."
Chapter 1987 Chapter 1958
Jessica approached Jenkins while talking, and in the chocolate dissatisfied eyes, helped Jenkins tidy up the collar:
"everything will get better."
This convinced Queen Isabella that this was definitely Jenkins' arrangement, otherwise there is no reason Jessica would say that.
"I will go home as soon as possible, but there will be a press conference around five o'clock."
Jenkins reminded.
"Really? Five o'clock, ok, I remembered."
It should have been "Jessica" who just told Jenkins the news, but now it behaves as if she just knew it. Queen Isabella didn't know what Jenkins was doing, so she didn't say anything, but watched Jessica say goodbye to Jenkins, and then turned to herself:
"You must be careful."
"Be careful what?"
"Of course a person who originally followed the rules is determined not to follow the rules, and no one knows what he will do."
She didn't explain much, but blinked at Jenkins, and then walked in the opposite direction with the maids.
"Aren't you with us?"
Jenkins asked.
"I want to meet the'Mr.' riding a horse."
She said with a smile, and then separated from the group.
"What do you want to do?"
The old man asked Jenkins dissatisfiedly.
"I'll know in a while, why don't we continue our story? As I just said, the first few years are very difficult to maintain."
Queen Isabella is dissatisfied with Jenkins's attitude, but unexpectedly really has more enthusiasm for telling her own story. Jenkins had planned to spend some time persuading her to continue, but she didn't expect that she didn't object:
"Yes, it's very difficult. Jenkins, I know you have encountered a lot of troubles, but almost everyone is an enemy scene, you certainly have not encountered it."
This is right, Jenkins always makes most people his supporters.
"This is the most important feeling I have in the first few years after becoming a queen. Until now, thinking of those days, I will feel scared from the bottom of my heart. Fortunately, I did a good job, and since then I have some supporters. This A good virtuous circle has formed. I think I am probably a person with some political talent."
She looked at the vast pasture in front of her, took a deep breath, and let the air directly into her lungs:
"That's great."
I don’t know if it’s the past or the scenery here.
"Jenkins, you stand here with me and look at this country. What do you see?"
"Change."
