Seeing that Alan didn't say anything, but didn't show any obvious behavior of admitting his mistake, all his behavior seemed to be that he had done something insignificant. Beating people seemed normal for him, even in Congress, even if he was almost beating an elderly hereditary duke to death.

Just now he found out that the boss left the lounge before Alan. He didn't believe everything Alan said, but according to the reports from other waiters, the situation at that time was almost the same as what Alan told him.

The only detail is whether the duke was suspected of verbally insulting the boss's reputation.

But this kind of thing... doesn't matter anymore. Now that Allen has said it in front of so many people, and so many people have "testified" for him, Boss Cha is also inclined to believe Allen.

But after all, hitting people is wrong, and the occasion and the person being beaten are very special. The Queen must have also received the news.

"Go back and stay in your manor for a few days to see what His Majesty says."

"Ah? Your Highness... Can't I go home yet? I don't want to stay in London. The air here is not good!"

"Stay!"

Boss Cha raised his voice slightly and turned to look out the window. It was already past the rush hour and the traffic on the road was not so congested.

If this matter wasn't so serious, he could have just made the decision and left Alan alone, but now that the Queen already knew about it, he had to wait and see what the Queen thought.

"You'd better pray that the old guy makes it and doesn't die in the hospital."

"Your Highness, I was careful with my attack. He won't die!"

Allen didn't even pretend in front of Boss Cha. He didn't hit the vital parts just now. Given the difference in physical fitness between the two, if Allen was ruthless, the old guy wouldn't even have a chance to scream. In Allen's opinion, a good beating would make him remember it, and the main course would have to be served to his son James.

"Shut up! Remember, you only slapped him once!"

Boss Cha glared at Alan and said.

"knew!"

…

In a separate small courtyard near the old Royal Naval College in South London, Thatcher temporarily lived here to recuperate after stepping down.

Even though this old woman has gone down now, she had no choice at that time...

The current Prime Minister Major had a good personal relationship with Thatcher, and he took advantage of the cover of darkness to visit Thatcher at her home that evening.

Seeing her old friend again, Thatcher, dressed in a suit and short skirt, looked very happy even though she was at home.

"You're not busy today? What would you like to drink?"

As soon as the two of them sat down in the study, Thatcher looked at Major and asked.

"Don't bother. Just give me a whiskey."

"Lily, go get Prime Minister Major a whiskey on the rocks!"

"Yes, ma'am!"

…

The servant brought the whiskey, put down the tray, turned around and closed the door. Only Thatcher and Major were left in the study.

"How's Dennis?"

After taking a sip of whiskey, Prime Minister Major started off by chatting about family matters as usual. When he entered the house today, he did not see Dennis, who usually wandered around the house in a wheelchair.

Dennis is Thatcher's husband. He is almost eighty years old this year. Because he loved to spend money on wine and women when he was young, his health has long been in decline. He suddenly suffered a stroke last year. He usually has a six on his left hand and a seven on his right hand. He sits in a wheelchair waiting to die. Although he is only ten years older than Thatcher, Thatcher, who is nearly seventy years old, is in much better health than her husband.

"He's sleeping upstairs. He's had insomnia these days and his sleeping hours are irregular. Can you tell me why you're here? Is it about the privatization of the enterprise?"

"Haha, no! Something big happened in Congress today."

Major shared the most explosive news of the day with Thatcher with a smile.

"oh?"

After listening to Major's story, Thatcher became noticeably more alert, especially when she heard the name that she hated the most!

She had been in politics for so many years and had seen a lot of things, but the person she hated the most was only Alan!

Because Allen wrote a short essay in the newspaper that exposed her dark secrets, which made Thatcher lose all face. This was a fatal blow to a politician.

Although it was her various policies that ultimately led to her resignation, Allen's exposure of her dirty laundry also played a role in fueling the situation, making her reputation still notorious and she has a bad reputation in Britain.

Moreover, she couldn't do anything to Allen in the end. Even after she stepped down, her husband was made a baronet by the Queen, but she still had to stay away from Allen. In order to avoid meeting him in private, she had to greet Allen first!

Now that she heard that Allen had done such a big thing, how could Thatcher not be excited?

…

"Are you planning to make a fuss about this?"

"No, no, no, His Highness said that this matter must be kept secret. I was there at the time."

Major said with a smile.

Thatcher raised her eyebrows and understood what Major meant. If this matter was said in this way, then it could not be exposed. Whoever exposed it...it would not mean that he would not have to consider the consequences!

Even if Major told her the news now, it was only because of their good personal relationship that he let her know about it.

She couldn't tell anyone else.

Thinking of this, Thatcher glanced at Major and said, "Do you want to take advantage of this?"

"Yes! Those people have been pushing too hard lately. I think this is a good opportunity."

"Um……"

Thatcher scratched his temples.

If Alan hits someone, he will definitely be punished, but the punishment will probably not be too severe.

This is why politicians hate aristocrats the most.

Each of these people is like a time bomb. Normally, nothing will happen when they keep a low profile. But if they are all like Allen, then it will be a big trouble.

Suppose... Suppose a politician has a bad relationship with a noble, or even has a personal grudge against him.

What if this nobleman had a weapon and struck the politician no matter what the occasion?

For example, stabbing yourself with a knife!

Even if the person is not killed, he will have to go to the hospital in pain. But if the person is ruthless and stabs the person to death, then the person will be gone for life.

But the nobles who took action would not get into any big trouble themselves.

If the person has strong connections, the queen will at most confine him to house arrest for a few years, which is the maximum punishment. If the person has weak connections, he will be directly brought to the court of nobles and sentenced accordingly. In the end, he will be given preferential treatment because of his noble status, which means that nothing will happen if you round it up.

These nobles are a cancer, and every aspiring politician wants to eradicate them once and for all.

But the reality is too cruel. Most of the time, the two sides can only oppose and entangle each other. They cannot eliminate each other, but can only weaken each other. Fortunately, through continuous weakening over the years, the nobles have long lost their former power. Most of the nobles are usually low-key, and only a few are active, like Alan!

…

If you want to cause trouble for Allen, you can only do so when he is not in London or in Parliament.

Only in this way can those who rush to the front to do things feel at ease to work, otherwise...

With Alan's temper, if he knew someone dared to cause trouble for him openly, wouldn't he go and block that person?

Or like beating the duke, which wasn't the first time he'd done that.

But what happens for the above conditions to occur?

Only when Alan makes a mistake and is confined by the Queen is the best time to attack!

…

"What do you think?"

Major looked at Thatcher who was lost in thought and asked tentatively.

He was not familiar with Allen, but he wanted to take advantage of Allen's incident to stir up some trouble, so he could only... find someone who hated Allen and was very familiar with him, and that person was Thatcher!

"Since His Highness specifically instructed that this matter must be kept secret, then we cannot use this matter as a starting point. Is the Duke seriously injured?"

"Before I came to see you, my secretary just called and said that the duke is still unconscious. He has four broken ribs, his spleen is damaged and his condition is quite serious. His right eyeball is ruptured, and he has multiple bruises all over his body."

“…”

When Thatcher heard Major's description of the injuries, she looked up suddenly. This was a serious blow!

When Thatcher thought about how Alan dared to fight with a duke of such an old age, she instantly thought of herself. She was the same age as the duke!

If things get pushed to the extreme, will Alan come looking for her?

With that person's temper, who can say for sure?

Therefore, if you want to attack him, you have to choose the "battlefield" carefully. It is best to put the battlefield far away so as to distract Alan's attention. Thinking of this, Thatcher suddenly remembered a little thing she heard from a friend a few months ago.

"Some time ago, I heard that His Royal Highness William had a bad temper when he was in school, and he often had conflicts and even fights with his classmates?"

…

Seeing Thatcher's puzzled and guiding look, Major felt something in his heart.

He had already figured out what Thatcher meant. Instead of attacking Allen himself, he started with William or Harry, attacking his incompetent performance in raising children!

A guardian who only teaches his children violence is not terrible, but if the child is a prince, the future king of Great Britain, then it is terrible!

…

"Haha, he is not only the guardian of the two princes, I remember that the King of Sweden also left his beloved son and daughter here last year. It is said that he has instilled a lot of violent ideas in them."

Major and Thatcher smiled at each other. As long as they started with the fact that Alan was not a qualified guardian, they could stir up a conflict, or even go a step further and cause the Queen's dissatisfaction with him...

"Your Highness trusts him, but His Majesty may not trust him. As long as His Royal Highness William and His Royal Highness Harry are separated from him, he will lose an important bargaining chip in his hand in the future!"

Thatcher has always had a thorn in her heart. Given Alan's current status, few people dared to cause trouble for him.

If he is given another ten years, and later... the person above is gone and the situation has changed, then Alan will be serving two monarchs. The current monarch is his old object of loyalty, and the future monarch is the one he raised since childhood. What kind of scenario is this?

Given Alan's personality, if that day comes, will Britain still be able to accommodate him?

So...if we can't start with him, starting with William is also a good option!

“Very good suggestion!”

Prime Minister Major looked at Thatcher deeply. As expected... the person who knows a man best is his opponent!

…

"Major, when public opinion descends upon him, you only need to guide them a little and expose all the atrocities committed by the Hill family in Wales over the years. What awaits him...Haha, the speed at which information spreads in society now is much faster than before!"

Thatcher continued to guide with a smile.

"???"

The smile on Major's face froze a little. He wanted to take advantage of the situation to make a good point, but all he did was just to increase his own prestige.

Thatcher’s first suggestion was good, but her second suggestion...is not so good!

No matter what the Hill family did in Wales before, they were just following orders, and the results are obvious. Wales is the most supportive region of England and the place with the least trouble among the four major forces in Britain. The Hill family has made an indelible contribution to this.

Now they are settling scores later...

The royal family will kill him!

How many years does he have left in his term? There is no need to do something that hurts others and does not benefit oneself, and even affects unity.

Besides, Thatcher was only responsible for giving advice, but he was the one who actually did the work. What if Alan was really pushed into a corner and tried to fight him?

Alan is still so young, and Major even feels a little scared at the thought of being stared at by such a person for decades.

…

"Humph, Major, I have been in politics for so many years, and the outside world has given me the nickname of the Iron Lady, and you..."

Thatcher said with disdain in her eyes: "If you can't change your hesitant character, when you leave office, it will be as if you have never been in history, and there will be no trace of you left in the political arena."

"Okay, thank you Thatcher, I know what I should do."

Prime Minister Major stood up. He was not angry after listening to Thatcher's words, but now... he is no longer the Minister of Finance during Thatcher's time. He is now the Prime Minister and does not need to listen to Thatcher anymore!

He just came to discuss with her today. To put it bluntly, he now only regarded Thatcher as an older and experienced staff member, not a leader!

…

Putting down the telescope, a trace of helplessness flashed across Alan's face.

Damn, Boss Cha seemed to be afraid that he would run away, and actually arranged someone to follow him at the gate of his manor!

What about the trust between the monarch and his subjects?

Master Allen is a man who dares to take responsibility for his actions. Can he still run away?

"Master... I just checked, there are people at the back door, even..."

"Tell me, what else?"

Little Stone hesitated for a moment and continued, "I just saw something wrong with a small cruise ship on the Thames. There should be people on board from His Highness' side."

"Okay, okay! Are you afraid that I'll run away?!"

Alan was almost so angry that he laughed. The surveillance was so close that he didn't even have a chance.

"Have you heard anything about that old fellow? Is he dead?"

It has been a whole day since Alan returned to the manor in Boss Cha's car this morning, and no news has been received from the outside world, but he discovered that he was actually under house arrest!

I can't even leave the manor. What a feeling...

"Uh... no, our people can't get into the hospital where he's staying."

"Why don't you think of a way to call the Duke of Angus and ask him to send someone to investigate?"

Little Shitou lowered his head because of Alan's scolding. When he heard this, he quickly agreed and turned away.

"By the way, have someone prepare some dinner for me. I'm hungry. Hurry up!"

"Okay, Master!"
