[142] The Queen's Reward

"I'll keep it safe..."

Victoria put away the crystal bottle solemnly, and made up her mind that after five days, when she recovered from her illness, she would find someone to test whether the miracle medicine was true or not: "If it is true, I will Order this 'Immortal Dew' from your Ho-Mei Group for a long time!"

Listen, what is the most powerful country in the world, a drop of medicine worth 1000 million US dollars, you can order it as soon as you say it, and the price will not be refunded, without even blinking your eyebrows!

Long Hao was in a happy mood, and had already started to fantasize about the beautiful scene of sitting at home dispensing medicine and counting money at the same time.novel chapter

The queen was tired, so she waved Long Hao and Melissa to step back. Long Hao knew that the effect of the medicine had increased, and the queen needed a restful sleep.

The Queen's treatment went smoothly. The four of Long Hao were taken to a luxuriously furnished suite, which not only had fresh and delicious meals, but also soft and spacious beds. Outside the window, there was an indoor swimming pool with rippling blue waves...

Although it is still underground, this kind of treatment is already quite high. Obviously, this was arranged by the queen in advance. If the medicine is effective, if the medicine is effective, if the medicine is not effective... Long Hao rubbed his head, unwilling to think about the terrible ending .novel chapter

Huh, fortunately I am good at curing diseases and saving lives, lt can be saved, and Buckingham Palace does not need to be rebuilt...

Long Hao thought to himself, whether he was feeling lucky for himself or lamenting that the queen's palace had escaped a catastrophe, he shouted: "Comrades, the feast cooked by the royal chef is fast, but slow... this roast The leg of lamb is mine now, hahaha, grab it!"

Following Long Hao's yelling, the three of Melissa jumped up and joined in the 'war' to snatch the delicious food.

For ten whole days, I was worried and exhausted. Although I didn't really encounter any danger, my mood also needed to be released... eat.Letting go of your stomach and eating with a hearty meal is the best way to vent and release your stress!

The four of Long Hao were dining happily, but in Victoria's bedroom, there were five or six more people dressed in white robes who looked like church priests.

Victoria's face was serene, her eyelids lightly covered.Lying on the bed, it seems that the mind is wandering for nine days, and there is nothing left.

A man in white was half bent, standing by the side of the bed, his gray eyebrows twitched, and his clear face was full of surprise and bewilderment.

"Royce, how is my king's physical condition?" Victoria's leisurely voice came from the bed.

The man in white named Royce came back to his senses and quickly replied: "Your Majesty, it's amazing... Not only does your wound heal at the same speed as ordinary people, but even your heart, lungs, spleen and kidneys are so strong that you don't have any symptoms." It’s the same as people who suffer from any disease! It’s really hard for me to believe my eyes, is this the Lord’s grace, is it a manifestation?”

Royce is a veteran physician of the British royal family. Before Collison was favored, he was in charge of the Queen's health... Just now, after a simple physical examination of the Queen, the results that surprised Royce : Hemophilia disappeared without a trace, and all body functions are normal. It is no exaggeration to say that the queen was replaced with running shoes.She can run 1500 meters!

"Hehe, it's the Lord who doesn't want to call me. So... you all step back and arrange some nutritious and delicious meals for me. It's been eight years. For this mutant hemophilia, what I eat is what a king of a country should eat Food..." The queen raised her hand and waved it lightly.

A 'revolution' of blood in the body.Let Victoria feel like soaking in warm pool water, lazy and comfortable, unwilling to move at all.

Royce took the order and retreated with a group of imperial doctors, waiting until the door with magnificent patterns was closed.Victoria on the bed tapped the edge of the bed with her fingers, and a smug smile appeared on the corner of her mouth: My eyesight has not deteriorated, how can I easily waste 1000 million US dollars of immortality dew on others, tsk tsk, that is a year of life!

It turned out that shortly after Long Hao left, this great queen unscrewed the crystal bottle and swallowed a drop of 'Immortal Dew' without hesitation!

Instead of experimenting with others, it's better to take a gamble on your own. You know, according to Long Hao, this immortal dew is not only ridiculously expensive, but also can't continue to be produced in a short time...Victoria has been fighting against the god of death for so many years, How can a wire rope that wanders between life and death easily waste a year of life?

Besides, the risk of this gambling is actually very small, Victoria thought to herself, since she has already drank Long Hao's potion anyway, what does it matter if she takes a drop of 'Immortal Dew' from him?

As a result, after taking the immortal dew, the queen immediately felt a wonderful change in her long-sick body, as if an old tree sprouted new branches, and vitality emanated from her body, so she sent a message from Royce to help her. examine.

"One year of life, it's really an extra year of life..."

Victoria closed her eyes, and tears of mixed flavors oozed from the corners of her eyes: "This Long Hao has too many strange things about him, should we befriend him? Or...hehe, don't think too much about it, anyway, I made 1000 million yuan today U.S. dollars, equivalent to 200 million pounds! Tsk tsk, I swallowed four Sovereign-class battleships, if those admirals found out, would they be so distressed?"

In a luxurious suite on the ground floor of Buckingham Palace, Melissa changed into a swimsuit and played in the crystal clear swimming pool. A pair of underpants, after swimming with the princess for a while, they went ashore.

"Breeze, drizzle, follow me!"

Long Hao greeted the two little guys who were enjoying themselves while eating fruit by the pool, shaking their girls, put on a bath towel, and walked towards the suite.

"Yes, Master!"

Breeze and Rain threw away the fruit snacks in a hurry, and quickly followed. The clever Breeze even bent down to grab a few handfuls of pool water, and rinsed his mouth with a grunt.

After closing the door, Long Hao signaled the two little guys to sit down and began to check their 'homework'.

"Well, Breeze, the progress of your gold source is indeed as you said, 59, and you are getting closer to the goal of 100 quarts... But in the future, this kind of good thing with enough gold is not common, you have to keep your mind and practice hard. Gestures, feeling the heart of metal, absorbing the nutrients needed for the gold source from the five elements of the world... A true alchemist needs to use his brains, hands, and hard work. He only relies on the accumulation of gold, and his future achievements will be extremely limited! Breeze , you have to remember. Don't be complacent!"

"Xiao Yu, show me your gestures... Well, yes, it can be seen that you have worked hard for the past three days and gained a lot. Okay, let's move on to the gold nuggets. I'll help you plant the gold source!"

It took an hour, and the golden light flashed in Xiao Yu's little hand, and her little face was filled with joy, novelty, and excitement, and she stammered: "I, I am also an alchemy apprentice!"

After dealing with this matter, Long Hao tilted his head and thought for a while, thinking that the next five days will be idle, and he must find something to do... You can't have sex with Melissa every day, even if the room is soundproof .It's not good to take the children with you.

So Long Hao pulled the purple rope at the door, and after a series of melodious and crisp bells rang, the door of the suite was knocked.

The door opened, and a servant came in, and asked respectfully, "Mr. Long, do you have any orders?"

"I suddenly thought of a potion, which is very good for the queen's physical recovery, and I want to make it...Can you do me a favor?"

"Of course. Mr. Long, please tell me, the queen has explained it. Mr. Long's request must be fulfilled!" The attendant nodded and said, "Are you going to the dispensing room? I will take you there..."

After finishing speaking, the attendant turned around and wanted to lead the way.

"No, no, no need to go to the dispensing room!" Long Hao chuckled.He rubbed his fingers covertly: "This potion is relatively simple to prepare, and only needs gold...gold!"

The attendant froze, and turned his head after a while, with a strange expression on his face: "Do you want gold?"

"Why, can't it? If it's difficult, let it go. Next time the Queen asks me, I'll say that the potion is too difficult to prepare, so I canceled it." Long Hao sighed and shook his head, with an expression of indifference.

"Okay, of course!"

The attendant was taken aback, if you said that to the queen, the head on my neck would be moved: "Mr. Long, wait a moment, I will ask the guards to bring you the gold right away!"

"Hehe, I'll trouble you then!" Long Hao watched the attendant leave with a smile.

The attendant muttered as he walked: This oriental pharmacist is so strange, I have never heard that gold is needed to prepare potions!I heard them say that in three days, a total of 1000 yuan of gold nuggets were moved from the vault to the dispensing room, but when someone left, the gold nuggets inside seemed to evaporate, and there was no trace of them... Tsk tsk, even if It's food, four people can't eat a ton in three days!

Holding a chicken feather as an arrow, Long Hao successfully "blacked" hundreds of kilograms of gold, locked the door, and practiced contentedly with the breeze and rain.

Of course, this practice is a combination of work and rest. Long Hao feeds Jin Yuan for a while, then jumps into the swimming pool and plays with the mandarin ducks.

The happy time passed quickly, and five days later, it entered November of 1891.

The queen was very punctual, so early in the morning, she summoned Long Hao and Melissa, the three of them, to ascend to the ground they had not seen for a long time, and enjoy the sunshine and breakfast in a royal dining room in Buckingham Palace.

The air on the surface is particularly refreshing, and the breakfast is the same, with vegetarian dishes and eggs, pickles and white porridge, which is extremely light.

Although it is light, the taste is not bad at all. After being 'closed' underground for half a month, everything Long Hao eats is delicious.

Victoria only ate a strip of green vegetables, peeled an egg, stopped her mouth, and watched with a smile as Long Hao sizzled and slurped the porridge: "It tastes good, this is the craftsmanship of your royal chef in the Qing Dynasty. I 20 years ago Inviting him to come to London, counting it now, only made him cook less than ten meals..."

"It's delicious, it's delicious! Whoops, whoops..."

Long Hao turned into a foodie and concentrated on dealing with his job, but he didn't answer Victoria's words.

He knew very well in his heart that today he came to accept the queen's reward and also to accept the test. Whether he can successfully take away the queen's reward depends on his own response.

In short, now that we don't know the Queen's true intentions, it's better to pretend to be stupid first, so as not to change.

"Eat more if it's delicious, if it's not enough, I'll ask the chef to bring it again. I asked him to boil a big pot early this morning..."

Victoria smiled kindly: "...Long Hao, thanks to you, my king's appetite has also improved. Today is the first time I have had a relaxing breakfast in eight years!"

Alright, here we come!Long Hao stopped his spoon, raised his head, and looked at the queen with sincere blessings.

"Yeah, the queen has a good appetite, everyone is happy!"

"Hehe, Long Hao, I really want to thank you. The imperial physician checked me last night. The hemophilia that plagued me all my life has been completely eradicated!" Victoria smiled.Said to Long Hao: "You are the greatest pharmacist I have ever seen!"

The profession of pharmacist still existed in the 19th century and was quite respected.At that time, Western medicine was far from being as developed as later generations. It can be said that in the medical field, Chinese medicine and Western medicine each accounted for half of the country.

A brilliant pharmacist.Usually they are proficient in Chinese and Western medicine, such as the unlucky Collison.

"It's not the greatest, I only know a little bit about medicine!" Long Hao said modestly.

"Anyway, you saved this king and the British Empire. As I said before, I will reward you heavily!"

"That...how embarrassing!" Long Hao blinked against his will, "I just wanted to try it at the beginning. I didn't expect it to be successful... The queen is so kind, I would rather obey her order than to be respectful!"

"Long Hao, what reward do you want?"

Victoria looked at Long Hao with a smile in her eyes: "Say it, I will definitely satisfy you!"

Want me to tell you?

Long Hao secretly scolded Victoria for her hypocrisy, let alone talk about it, I saved you, so what conditions should you give me first? 30 pounds, the right of succession to the British throne, a queen's promise and the right to mobilize the fleet three times... I have had breakfast for so long.Why didn't you say a word?So unobtrusive!

"This, this..." After all, Long Hao's face has not been trained to be invulnerable.He was planning in his heart, how to mention it, in order to maximize his own interests.

"Have no idea?"

Victoria smiled meaningfully, and suddenly turned to look at Melissa: "Melissa, according to seniority, if I remember correctly. You should call me aunt nainai?"

"what?"

Melissa was startled, and quickly replied: "Yes, yes, aunt, aunt..."

In fact, the blood relationship between Victoria and Melissa is relatively distant, Melissa's grandmother.She is Victoria's cousin, and Melissa always calls Victoria 'Her Majesty' when they meet each other.

The title of aunt nainai shortened the distance between the two parties. Melissa was a little flattered, and her tongue was not smooth.

"From now on, I will be called Aunt Wang Nainai..."

Victoria said calmly: "After a while, I will announce to the royal family that you will be named 'Princess Xianlu' and enjoy the seventh right of succession to the British throne!"

'Clang', Melissa shook her hand, and the silver knife and fork fell under the dining table.

Long Hao's bull's-eyes also widened: Be good, Princess Xianlu, the seventh in line of succession! !

"What, are you satisfied?" Seeing Long Hao and Melissa losing their composure, Victoria felt a little complacent, peeled a walnut, and gracefully threw it into a glass of milk.

"Full...satisfied!"

Melissa came to her senses, quickly pulled the seat away, pulled her floor-length skirt, and bowed deeply to the Queen.

This is a genuine princess of the British Empire. From now on, Melissa will go out to represent not only the Spanish royal family, but also the British royal family in a dignified way!

To put it a little further, the marriage contract between Melissa and Prince Aza of Russia is essentially annulled, because Queen Victoria did not agree to this marriage.

Long Hao smiled and said joyfully, "Thank you queen, the queen is wise!"

"You, since you came in this morning, I haven't seen your sincere smile until now!" Victoria nodded at Long Hao and shook her head slightly: "If you don't see the benefits, you won't speak your heart to me. Young, too scheming... What, were you thinking just now that this king is deliberately going around the corner, trying to deny those rewards that I have explained long ago?"

"Hey..." Long Hao scratched his head 'simply and honestly'.

"Get up, child..."

Victoria excused Melissa, "It's really not easy for you. A girl ran from Spain to the United States. If she hadn't met Long Hao, she really didn't know what would happen to her..."

"Well, aunt nainai..."

Melissa recalled her family's voyage two years ago, all kinds of thrills and crises, and her nose couldn't help but sore.

"I know what the relationship between you and Long Hao is. I gave you the title of princess, one is to fulfill the promise, and the other is to let Christina have nothing to say, and completely cut off her thoughts!" Victoria continued. Said, "Otherwise, if you want to marry this oriental boy, there will be many difficulties!"

What the queen said earlier was pleasant to the ear, but upon hearing this, Long Hao was a little unhappy: Why, it is obviously fulfilling the promise I deserve: a right to inherit the British throne, what you said seems to have done me a great favor like...

"It's not a problem, the big deal is that we don't go to Spain!" Long Hao said with his head held high.

"Stupid words!"

Victoria patted the dining table lightly, stared at Long Hao and said, "Physicist Long, I know you have a great career in the United States, and you have a good life, but have you ever thought about Melissa? She is a girl, and she can't go home if she has a home , followed you without a title all my life, and wandered outside the motherland all my life?!"

"Queen……"

Long Hao was taken aback, not only because of Victoria's feigned anger, but also because of the exposure of his identity as a 'physicist'.

This information was revealed. In five days, the Queen of England was not only recuperating from illness, but also did a lot of homework to investigate herself...

"I was negligent, Sasha, I'm sorry!"

Long Hao deliberately ignored the Queen's words, "Long University Physicist", but turned to look at Melissa, and apologized softly.

Do you want to surprise me again and again, and then gradually lose your momentum?I am not as good as you wish!Long Hao avoided the truth, changed the topic, and avoided Victoria's sharp temptation!

"Don't say I'm sorry..." Melissa shook her head with tears in her eyes and joy on her face, "You know, no matter where you go, as long as I'm by your side, I'm willing!"
