My British Empire

Chapter 257 Female Secretary

ps: At the end of the month, ask for votes, ask for recommendations

"Oh! This is a very big gift, I have never seen such a big fish!"

Edward glanced sideways, and said in a surprised tone, looking extremely happy.

Seeing the satisfied smile of His Majesty the King, Mary Lannox's charmingly smiling face was flushed, and her small eyes were narrowed into a slit, like a crescent moon, beautiful and innocent.

"Your Majesty, as long as you are satisfied!" She lowered her neck, and the red-haired girl was very shy, lowering her head, not daring to look at the smiling young king.

"Mary, let's grill fish together! This must be delicious!"

Edward took a look from the corner of his eye, and the little loli on the side pursed her mouth and puffed up her face, looking like I was very angry.

Regarding this, he turned his head, bent slightly, and said kindly to the angry little Lolita.

"Come on, let's roast together!" Edward picked up the big jumping fish, held it firmly with both hands, ignored the fishy smell, and acted like a king himself.

"Elizabeth, you come too!" Seeing the **** fish he didn't recognize in his hand, Edward cast his eyes on Elizabeth who was standing there, and asked.

"Wait a while!" Elizabeth said in a cold voice without turning her head.

"Wait until I catch a big fish!"

"Okay! Let's wait for a while! I'll catch a big fish too, so you can see it!"

Edward glanced at the five Marys, and then said softly with a smile.

"Oh yeah~" The little lolis jumped for joy, chirping non-stop, and even a little eager to try, as if they wanted to compete with him. Winning the king was indeed an exciting match.

Afterwards, Edward sat in the center, his eyes focused on the gentle water, and he didn't say a word.

The little lolis held their breaths in order to come up one after another, for fear of disturbing the activities of His Majesty the King. Their eyes were the same as his, staring closely at the water surface. Their small eyes were round and round, and their pouty little faces were extremely cute.

Edward was surrounded by everyone, his soft body leaned carefully on his solid back, and surrounded by five, it felt great!

On the other hand, the Queen Mother Mary chatted with her maid on her own, using this new-style fishing rod, and didn't seem to pay any attention to this side.

"Bah bah bah! Why do you look so evil? The mind is as calm as water, the mind is as calm as water, there is no Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva, there is no Tathagata Buddha!"

Edward was fishing with a calm face, thinking insincerely in his heart.

at this time. Our Majesty the King of England enjoys a leisurely and pleasant holiday, and forgets about those political affairs.

The ministers in London, however, have to be busy and exhausted physically and mentally. If there is a word to describe it: they feel their bodies are hollowed out.

Of course, Faris Alexander, the chairman of the Privy Council, did not know this sentence, but the general meaning is still clear!

Even in his own office, Faris was still full of elegance in his manner and speech, as if barbarism and rudeness were separated from him.

Buried his somewhat bald head, Faris frowned, and sometimes stopped to think about it, and sometimes his strokes flew like flying, so he never stopped.

During the day, he was not processing various documents in the office, or meeting and discussing with various people.

After writing the last letter, Faris shook his sore wrist, slowed down, and breathed a sigh of relief.

"Whoosh—" The densely packed documents that had just been corrected were taken away by the secretary standing beside him, and the documents in front of him became blank again. Seeing this, Faris sighed softly.

"Laura! Who am I going to see today?"

Listening to Faris' tired tone, the young and beautiful secretary covered her mouth and snickered softly.

"Your Excellency Speaker, this is your schedule for today, please have a look!"

As he spoke, the female secretary stretched out her white and tender arm, and placed a form filled with densely packed names in front of him.

Faris took a look, then softened his eyes, looking distressed.

Originally, in England, all secretaries were basically held by men, which was originally a position, equivalent to an assistant.

The general noble children started as secretaries, with a high starting point and easy promotion.

This is incomparable to ordinary people, and it can be regarded as a privilege of nobles!

With the leadership of His Majesty the King, everyone suddenly discovered overnight that the secretary who often stays by their side could be a female secretary.

If you have something to do as a secretary, if you don't have something to do as a secretary.

Suddenly, overnight, a female secretary was added to all the government officials.

Don't ask her to do anything, fetch some water, take some documents, even if it's placed there as a beautiful vase, it's good to be seductive!

Of course, no one dared to do anything in this workplace, and it would be a devastating blow to the reputation if it was spread out.

Regarding this, Edward originally wanted to suppress this trend, but he remembered that he had initiated it.

It is not a good idea to only allow state officials to set fires and not allow common people to light lamps.

So, under the indulgence of His Majesty the King, female secretaries became popular in the London City Government.

"This is very distressing, my dear Laura, and this king of mine is very troublesome!"

Faris stroked his forehead, looking speechless, but he enjoyed this busy and fulfilling life.

This is the distress and happiness of politicians!

"Look, Marquis William sent a letter yesterday, all kinds of difficulties, full of bitterness, endless, in short, one word: money!"

"This is a letter from gentlemen from Southamptonshire, Worcestershire, Herefordshire, and Yorkshire. They are all expressing their greetings to His Majesty the King, but the hidden meaning is conveying their respect for the circuit court. Dissatisfaction with action!"

...

Faris, with thinning hair on his head, kept pouring bitter water on the female secretary, and talked about some important national affairs, without paying any attention to her secretary's identity.

The female secretary in her twenties showed no sympathy at all when she heard the speaker's words. Instead, she laughed happily, and her bright eyes turned into a crescent moon, shining dazzlingly.

"My father, no, Mr. Speaker, this is your own choice, no matter how hard you work, you have to persevere!"

As she spoke, she bent over, covered her mouth, and gloated.

"Besides, His Majesty the King will not let you go. As the Speaker of the Privy Council, this is your responsibility!"

Hearing what his daughter said, Faris shook his head with a wry smile.

My daughter was just widowed last year. At the age of 20, her deceased husband had a strong family background and a strong dowry. She was sought after by the young nobles in England, but she dismissed it. It has been almost two years and she is not ready to remarry. .
