Chapter 0230 Award Ceremony
"Ah~" He clenched his lover's waist and hips passionately, and his breathing echoed in the room.
"Tell me, what kind of sensation will our baby cause? A billion-dollar baby?"
His fingers traced the perfect curve like a naughty elf, and Li Zitao thought of the numerous news about extremely expensive treasures in the newspapers.
Since the 1920s, American newspapers seem to have loved this topic.
Millions of babies, millions of babies, billions of babies, America’s babies, New York babies, Washington’s number one baby
All kinds of babies often occupy a lot of space and trigger people's discussion.
"I don't want to publish the children's photos in newspapers for people to discuss and have fun." Adelaide closed her eyes lazily.
The battle was a huge drain on her.
"Okay, everything will be done according to your wishes. How dare I, a little marquis, go against the princess's will." Li Zitao said with a strange smile, his big hands were not honest at all under the quilt.
"Take me to wash up, my beast!" She opened her eyes coquettishly, and Adelaide used her jade arms as white as lotus root powder to hook his neck and said coquettishly.
"Beauty and the beast, I think this story must be good." The two of them chatted with each other, and they didn't walk out of the room until about three o'clock in the morning.
"Sister, you should know how to control yourself." Little Mary was sitting on the sofa bored.
"You should mind your own business." Adelaide snapped back, and little Mary bared her teeth in a threatening manner.
"Sasha, are you ready to salute?" Princess Elizabeth came from the corridor.
"Yes, sister, everything is ready." Adelaide asked curiously: "Where is mother?"
"The president invited her to visit Washington. Now she is on the plane with Jean." Little Mary kicked her legs and looked unhappy.
She also wanted to go to the welcome banquet in Washington, but her mother was only willing to take her there.
"That is your brother, and he is the heir to the kingdom." Of course, the Grand Duke would only bring the heir to this kind of banquet that was between formal and informal.
"Dear, we are going to be late." Li Zitao urged after looking at his pocket watch.
"Sorry, we'll talk after I get back. It's time for us to set off now." The servant was loading the gifts into the car.
"Does the ceremony take a long time?" Li Zitao asked curiously, looking at the big and small bags.
"At any time, we must prevent emergencies." Adelaide smiled.
After looking at the dozens of boxes filled with five cars, what else could Li Zitao say?
Airport.
"Mr. Li, all modifications are in accordance with your requirements, leather seats, velvet sofas, private space inside,
In order to ensure better service, the company specially equips each luxury passenger aircraft with two service personnel."
Hearing Richard introduce Adelaide, Li Zitao silently praised him in his heart, "This kid has a future!"
"Do these two hot stewardesses really have nothing to do with you?" After the plane took off, Adelaide smiled strangely as she looked at the two stewardesses in short skirts and black stockings.
"Of course." Li Zitao said with a serious face; "These service people like to do these tricks. I must seriously protest at the next shareholders' meeting."
Although she knew clearly that he was talking too much, Adelaide still raised the corners of her mouth slightly, showing a satisfied smile.
"It's a good thing she doesn't know that even the name stewardess was given by me." Li Zitao wiped cold sweat while thinking.
The soft velvet sofa and leather seats are both more comfortable than the previous hard-backed seats.
I arrived in London in a happy mood, with a hazy drizzle falling from the sky.
Taking a carriage ride to Buckingham Palace, a place that was once out of reach is now as common as going home.
Queen Mary wore a formal suit today. The red and green skirt was wide and heavy, with a solemn atmosphere.
George V was wearing a green cloak, with the hem trailing on the ground. He was holding a holy sword. Li Zitao knelt on one knee, with the sword blade resting on his left shoulder.
"In recognition of Charlie Lee's outstanding contributions to the Great Empire, he was granted the title of Marquess in the name of the Royal Family of Windsor, King of Great Britain and Emperor of India."
The investiture ceremony was very simple, a bit unexpectedly simple.
Except for the Archbishop of the Anglican Church and the State Church of Y, all members of the royal family attended as witnesses, and only one royal photographer was responsible for taking photos and records.
Li Zitao stood up as the crowd applauded. George V gave him a few simple words of encouragement and then left.
His Royal Highness the King is in a very bad mood. The establishment of the British Commonwealth represents the decline of the Great Y Empire, and the rule of the colonies will also end.
This happened when he was king, so how could he be happy?
"Marquis Charles, congratulations." Queen Mary stayed with the royal family members, and everyone moved to the Royal Banquet Hall.
"Thank you, Your Highness." Li Zitao smiled and bowed, spreading his right hand and pressing it on his left chest.
As a member of the nobility, when he meets a member of the royal family or a certain duke in the future, he will greet each other with aristocratic etiquette.
"Because this is not the official investiture period, I can only simply confer a title on you. I hope you won't mind." Queen Mary apologized.
The royal family has two fixed honors days every year, one is designated by the royal family, and the other is the birthday of the honoree.
And he was the one who jumped in the queue. It was neither his birthday nor the designated day for the award. No wonder it was so simple.
"No, I am a person who hates trouble." Li Zitao said with a smile.
"Everyone hates trouble, haha." While the two were communicating, Adelaide also completed her mission.
A donation of US$2 million was handed over to the royal steward by her. This was Li Zitao's 'contribution to the royal family.'
Of course, in royal records, its contribution was to help Luxembourg support the establishment of the Commonwealth and give up its neutrality to join.
However, talking about this title is still a bit embarrassing.
According to the Nobles Act of Great Y Country, those who are conferred high nobility must be citizens of Y nationality, but Li Zitao is Chinese and holds an American ID.
After all, it has nothing to do with the Big Y Empire.
Although it is said that a son-in-law can be half a son-in-law, foreigners do not say this, and Li Zitao does not have such self-consciousness.
This is also the reason why the royal family deliberately simplifies the investiture ceremony. Publicizing it will easily arouse public discussion and dissatisfaction, so it is better to keep it low-key.
After settling her identity, Adelaide took out the invitation card for their engagement ceremony and invited the prince and princess.
As for the king and queen, His Excellency the Grand Duke will personally send a letter to invite them. The status of the young couple who is about to be engaged is not enough.
"Congratulations, Charlie, but you have to be careful, our European Pearl has many suitors, and those nobles may challenge you for a duel!"
Prince Edward is very talkative, and his joking tone dispels the unfamiliarity of the first meeting.
If he remembered correctly, this was a master who loved beauty rather than country.
For the sake of his mistress, he finally handed over the king's throne to his younger brother, and took the marquise who succeeded to the throne to enjoy the world.
"And it's bloody bloody!"
Chapter completed!
