Chapter 76: Wilson



Thinking of this, Charles panicked for some reason. He glanced at Capel beside him and asked, "Where is Alan now?"

"this……"

Capell usually had no time to pay attention to where Alan was, and he couldn't answer for a while, but fortunately as a butler, he still remembered some important things. For example, didn't the Earl of Carmarthen tell His Highness that he was going to travel to Hong Kong some time ago? !

He personally handled the documents issued by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Charles' personal assistant.

"According to the time, Mr. Allen... seems to have gone to Hong Kong to travel and relax. Your Highness... do you want to contact him?"

A feeling of being cheated came over him. What Charles feared most now was not anything else but the royal gathering last Christmas.

At that time, the Queen seemed to have asked him inadvertently how the new Earl of Carmarthen was doing now. Charles had just met Allen when he hosted a party two days ago. Allen described to him how good his movie was, and the most important thing about it was that it was made to give voice to middle-aged and elderly women.

Charles was most impressed by Alan's words!

His dear mother, Her Majesty the Queen, is also a middle-aged woman...

At that time, Charles mentioned this matter to the Queen as a joke, and the Queen seemed very interested.

now……

After seeing the finished film, Charles was afraid that the Queen might actually go to see it.

Damn it, wasn't I being tricked by this kid Allen?

Taking a deep breath, Charles waved his hand and said, "No, let's wait and see."

Now I calm down and think that this is not a big deal. Maybe I am overthinking it. The Queen is so busy, how can she have time to watch a movie? !

Wait for a while and see. If no one asks, he will pretend not to know.

Thinking of this, Charles added to Capel: "I remember there were some events in Australia that required me to attend some time ago, right? I'll adjust my schedule and go there in the next two days. I suddenly want to go to Australia to take a look, um... see kangaroos, platypuses and so on."

Diana looked at her husband who had suddenly become diligent, and then looked at the screen which had gone dark.

Charles often travels on business, and most of the time he attends events in various Commonwealth countries. He attends at least three to four hundred events of various types throughout the year.

During this period, the two of them were sometimes not together, and Diana had to stay and take care of the children most of the time!

In this way, for a woman in her twenties and approaching thirty, it would be a bit uncomfortable to stay alone in an empty house when her husband is not at home all year round!

"Mr. Allen, please go first!"

Wei Dewei was dressed in casual clothes. He didn't need to be so reserved in the Governor's Mansion. He could be a little more casual. Tonight's welcome banquet was a bit shabby, not in terms of the standard of the reception, but in terms of the number of people at the banquet.

Wei Dewei deliberately reserved the main seat for Allen, and only sat down next to him after Allen sat down.

Only the two of them attended the welcome dinner tonight.

Wei Dewei thought of Karl, who claimed to be the butler, and asked, "Is Sir Karl still busy? He is indeed worthy of being the butler, and he is so conscientious wherever he goes."

"Haha, I asked him to help me collect some information and get familiar with the place. We have never been here before, so I feel relieved to have Karl do it. But why didn't you bring your family members here?"

"Hey... Mr. Allen, I've been too busy lately. Look here. If it weren't for the chef I specially transferred here to welcome you today, I would be too busy to handle other things."

Wei Dewei didn't treat Allen as an outsider either. He had just taken office for one day and had too many things to do. Today, he put aside all his duties and finally made time to meet Allen.

"By the way, sir, look at this."

Wei Dewei clapped his hands, and the maid came to him with a tray. Wei Dewei picked up the newspaper on the tray, opened it, turned it front, and then placed it on Alan's desk.

"Shock! Explosion! The mysterious blond, handsome, Governor Wilson, why? "

Alan looked at the newspaper in front of him, a little confused. He knew Chinese and he knew most of the traditional Chinese characters.

But there were some regional texts interspersed in the middle, which he couldn't understand.

In the upper left corner of the newspaper, there were two red explosion-style patterns with the words "shock" and "explosion" written in bold, giving a feeling of the UC shock style from his world.

I guessed what happened next, but the general meaning was that there was a handsome blond guy, and the new Governor-General Sir David Wilson was asked to come and greet him personally.

Looking at the picture in the newspaper, the distance was a little far, so his face was not very clear. In addition, we had to take into account the new Governor of Hong Kong who was bending down and waiting at the bottom of the stairs. In such a picture, Alan's appearance could not be seen clearly at all.

"It's a waste that I even put on some makeup."

Alan muttered, pointed to the name on the newspaper and said, "Is this your Chinese name? I can't read Chinese, what does it say?"

Be careful when you go out. Alan has never shown outside that he can speak Chinese, and this is also the case when he returns to Hong Kong.

He just wanted to be on guard in case those fat sheep whispered in Chinese in front of him, so he could secretly eavesdrop.

but……

Now things seem to be a little beyond expectations. These people are speaking Cantonese and he can't understand them!

"Your Excellency guessed correctly. Haha, this is my Chinese name, Wei Yixin. I studied Chinese for several years and have a good understanding of Chinese culture. In their words, I am... an expert on Chinese culture! A few years ago, I worked in our embassy in Beijing, so I know them quite well."

"oh……!"

Wei Dewei, also known as David Wilson, showed off his strengths in front of Allen with some pride. This was also his biggest advantage in becoming the Governor of Hong Kong this time. He could speak Chinese and understood the other party well enough!

Communication is barrier-free, and both sides can communicate more conveniently, which can also help stabilize the situation in Hong Kong.

Alan narrowed his eyes and looked deeply at Wei Yixin. According to the information Carl had found out, this guy was a so-called moderate.

That is to say, he is the type who advocates that everything can be negotiated, and seems to be more inclined towards China.

But he is not the moderate that outsiders think he is, that he is gentle, knowledgeable and well-mannered.

It's a political need!

Because there are too many people on the hawkish side, he won't be able to stand out unless he stands on the side of the moderates.

Claims are claims, positions are positions, but why did he study Chinese for so many years?

Only a fool would think that he really meant it for the sake of friendship between the two sides.

To put it simply, these so-called moderates are just skin and labels, they are just required for the job!

"I've read the information you gave me. I'll ask Karl to verify it again. You have to help me pick a place to stay as soon as possible in the next few days. I can't stay in the Governor's Mansion all the time. I have to leave those curious people a chance to visit me. But before that, I need your help to let them know me!"

Wei Yixin listened to Allen's explanation and took the opportunity to take over the conversation and said, "How do you need my assistance?"
