The fleet quickly went upstream and arrived in London, Stington Pier.
Prince Philip hugged Mary, and surrounded by the maids, he walked slowly down the long board step by step.
After getting off the boat, Prince Philip felt the body of the beautiful woman beside him move, and looked up.
On the red carpet, a young man taller than himself was standing in front of him with a smile, wearing a purple Chinese dress, with a dagger on his waist, and a handsome face.
Although the young man in front of him did not wear a crown, Philip intuitively told him that this was the young king (nonsense, everyone knows).
Looking away, Philip saw a beautiful noble lady in her twenties standing beside the young man.
Different from the heavy makeup of other noble ladies, she was wearing a long white lace dress, with a blue gemstone hanging on her slender neck, which was dazzling and dazzling, and firmly attracted his gaze.
Mary speeded up and walked quickly. Prince Philip narrowed his gaze and followed her footsteps.
"Edward, Elizabeth!" Princess Mary couldn't control her emotions, and she said emotionally when she saw her younger brother who had changed her appearance and her younger sister who was still beautiful.
"Good day, Your Majesty, Your Majesty, Your Royal Highness!" Naturally, Prince Philip would not be so rude. He bent down, touched his chest with his left hand, and saluted, which is a standard aristocratic etiquette.
"Good day, Your Royal Highness!" Edward's voice sounded first, followed by Princess Elizabeth's crisp voice.
Seeing this, Princess Mary realized her impoliteness, smiled awkwardly, and when she was about to salute again, Elizabeth in front rushed over.
"Mary, it's such a pleasure to meet you, you're finally back to see us."
Mary felt a heavy thing hanging on her body. Looking down, Princess Elizabeth hugged her waist, and her whole body seemed to be hanging on her body. No wonder she felt heavy.
She patted Elizabeth's head dumbfoundedly, and said with a smile:
"Elizabeth, you are already a big girl, don't be so rude!"
"Got it, Mary, it's still so long-winded!" Elizabeth curled her lips, muttering, and reluctantly left her embrace.
Immediately, the four of them looked at each other and smiled, and the laughter grew louder.
After laughing, Elizabeth and Mary stayed together intimately, while Edward and Philip walked side by side. Not far ahead, two luxurious carriages were waiting quietly.
"Your Majesty, your soldiers look very good!"
Looking at these energetic guards in red with straight backs, he became a little interested.
"Of course, after all, this is the army to protect the safety of the royal family. The king is the most important person in the country, so don't be careless!"
Edward smiled, pointed to the ground under his feet, and said.
"Of course, of course!" Philip was stunned for a moment, and then responded with a smile, "Of course the king is the most important thing, only after Almighty God!"
Philip found that he liked the young king more and more, which was very much to his liking.
While Edward on the side smiled in his heart, the Philip in front of him was still the Philip II he saw in his history books. He had a strong desire for power, was authoritarian and independent, and looked like the boss of God and his second child.
It was with this character that Philip II brought the Spanish Empire to prosper.
Even so, Edward has energy all over his body, and this kind of enemy has a taste.
A group of people boarded the carriage. When they went, Edward and Elizabeth were in front. When they came back, they were accompanied by Prince Philip.
Time passed quickly, and within a short while, Edward brought Prince Philip to Whitehall Palace in London.
Along the way, pedestrians were restrained by the guards, and could only look up at the carriage protected by the guards from a distance. Although they didn't see Prince Philip, the faces of London citizens showed expressions of surprise and exclamation.
The courts in Europe are like sieves, and the wind is everywhere. Even though Edward has kept it well, the news still spread like wildfire.
"Oh? Your environment in London is really good, much better than Paris, the so-called center of Europe!"
Prince Philip sat in the carriage, and through the gap in the window, he could see behind the crowded crowd, the streets of London were spacious and clean, and the houses on both sides of the road were neatly arranged, which looked extremely pleasing to the eye.
After praising London, Philip did not forget to belittle the French.
Seeing this, Edward smiled: "It's nothing, those common people will only be afraid of the whip, and will not listen to your painstaking advice. Only violence can make them succumb!"
"In this way, the whole city is naturally clean and tidy!"
Edward's faint smile and those pretentious words once again entered Philip's heart. He nodded unconsciously and agreed.
"Indeed, the untouchables only fear the whip, this is the best way to govern them!"
Prince Philip looked empathetic, with a lot of emotions on his face.
For Prince Philip, he has always advocated violent dictatorship, and therefore suppressed all opposing voices, thus achieving his own hegemony.
Although this has a great effect in a short period of time, in the long run, the harder the oppression, the more intense the resistance.
If the intensity is increased, then there will be a good show.
Seeing Prince Philip's deeply approving expression, Edward's eyes flickered.
Seeing that he had achieved this unexpected effect with a casual sentence, he was calm on the surface, but Edward burst into laughter in his heart.
Arrived at Whitehall Palace, the maids and guards were standing by to welcome Prince Philip.
Prince Philip saw such a scene, and then looked at the Whitehall Palace, his face remained unchanged, with a faint smile on his face.
Even so, Edward still saw disdain in his eyes.
It seems that in the eyes of His Royal Highness, Whitehall Palace is really a castle in the countryside, backward and dismissive.
Also, Spain’s South American colonies continued to send gold and silver to the mainland, making the entire Spanish nobles and royal family rich.
Buying extravagantly luxury accessories from all over the world, the generosity of the spending makes people have to admire it very much.
Whitehall Palace is naturally difficult to get into his eyes, and being able to keep a smile is already considered a face.
Princess Mary on the side showed a delighted smile.
This is one of the places where she grew up, and it is also a place where she has long remembered.
Being able to come back and have a look is enough to make her happy.
Looking at Mary's fading figure, Prince Philip said:
"Your Majesty, England's recent actions are quite big!"
"Oh? I wonder what His Royal Highness is referring to?"
Edward was a little confused, looked at the Spanish prince, and asked.
"Ireland, the Isle of Ireland!"
