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 His Majesty's satisfied smile, Mary Lannox's cheeks were flushed with a delicate smile, 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, the red-haired girl was very shy, she lowered her head, not daring to look at the smiling young king.

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

Edward looked at it 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 jumping big fish, held it firmly with both hands, ignored the fishy smell, and acted like a king himself.

"Elizabeth, come too!" Seeing the big black 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 coldly 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 looked around at the five Marys, and then said softly with a smile.

"Oh yeah~" The little lolis immediately jumped up and down, chirping non-stop, and even a little eager to try, as if they wanted to compete with him, and winning the king was indeed a heart-pounding match.

Afterwards, Edward sat in the central position, his gaze focused on the gentle water, without saying a word.

In order to come up, the little lolis held their breaths and concentrated, for fear of disturbing His Majesty's activities, their gazes were the same as his, staring closely at the water surface, their small eyes were round and their pouty 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, Queen Mary was chatting with the 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, Namo Guanshiyin Bodhisattva, Namo Tathagata Buddha!"

Edward fished calmly, thinking insincerely.

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

But the ministers in London have to be busy and exhausted physically and mentally. If there is one 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.

With his bald head buried, Faris frowned, and sometimes stopped to think about it, and he never stopped when something happened.

During the day, he is not processing various documents in the office, or meeting and discussing with various people, in short, he is non-stop and cannot take a breath.

After writing the last letter, Faris shook his sore wrist, took a while, and let out a soft breath.

"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 again today?"

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

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

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

Faris glanced at it, 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 children of nobles 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!

And under the leadership of His Majesty the King, everyone suddenly discovered overnight that the secretary who often stays by their side turned out to be a female secretary.

If you have something to do as a secretary, if you have nothing 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 look good!

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

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

It is not a good way to only allow state officials to set fires, but not to allow people to light lamps.

Therefore, 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 a distressing one!"

Faris stroked his forehead with a speechless look on his face, 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!"

…………

With thinning hair on his head, Faris kept pouring bitter water on the female secretary, talking about some important national affairs, without caring about her secretary's identity at all.

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 crescent moons, shining dazzlingly.

"My father, no, Your Excellency the Speaker, this is your own choice, no matter how hard you work, you must persevere!"

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

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

Hearing his daughter's words, 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 extremely young nobles in England, but she dismissed it. It has been almost two years and she is not ready to remarry. .
