Chapter 395

    "Bang!"


    The champagne opened, the slender goblet filled with amber wine, Arthur and the same relaxed smile of housekeeper Paul touched the glass.


    "Ding --"


    "cheers!"


    Arthur and Paul, the Butler, lifted the glass and drank it down.


    "Lord, every time I get to know that you have made new achievements, I feel like I can be a few years younger, full of energy and energy, which is really amazing!" After drinking out the glass of champagne, Paul, the butler with white gloves, gracefully took the bottle of champagne and refilled Arthur''s glass with champagne. His face was red as he poured it, and the corners of his mouth rose.


    "Ha ha, I''ll always bring you good news in the future, so that you can rejuvenate and grow old with me." Arthur laughed and said that he was very warm and moved by the loyalty and sincere care and love of Paul, the housekeeper who completely integrated himself into the Bolin family.


    "Oh, I wish it could be like that." Steward Paul''s eyes twinkled with water, and his face was still warm with a smile. Wensheng said, "I am very satisfied to witness the rise and success of Lord, and to watch the Renaissance of the Boleyn family step by step.


    Now, I have only two wishes. I wish I could stay with you and witness their realization. Then, I really have no regrets


    "So Paul, your body has always been great, and I believe that no matter what your wishes are, you will see them come true. Well, tell me your two wishes. If you want to land on the moon, I can only say that it is too difficult. Hehe Arthur heard Paul''s sentimental tone and laughed, hoping to change the atmosphere of the conversation.


    "Ha ha, I''m very happy on earth. I don''t want to go to the moon, so you can rest assured." Paul, the housekeeper, was amused by Arthur''s teasing, shook his head and laughed, then looked at Arthur with incomparable kindness and continued.


    "One wish is to witness your marriage and give birth to children, and teach the future Earl while I am not old enough to move."


    "Cough..." Hearing the butler Paul''s almost straightforward urging for marriage, Arthur''s black line mouth pulled, coughed twice, shook his head and said with a bitter smile: "sorry, Paul, if this wish is to be realized, you can only wait. You know, I''m still a child..."


    "Ha ha..." Steward Paul looked at Arthur lovingly and said with a happy smile, "well, Lord, I hope you can grow up quickly. I believe that you will eventually meet a countess who can make you feel that you have grown up."


    Arthur shrugged, his eyes twinkled, his mouth slightly raised with a smile: "then I hope she doesn''t show up so early."


    "Sometimes fate is very magical. It can pull two people together in the dark. The one who loves you most is not rushing to your light, but to see you struggling in the mud, regardless of your distress, gently reaches out his hand.


    Life is the most precious gift. Love the one you love and treat everything gently Steward Paul looked at Arthur kindly and said with a smile.


    Arthur nodded thoughtfully, then looked at Paul with a smile and continued to ask, "what''s your other wish? It''s not that I want to raise a lot of children and see the Bolin family thriving? If so, it''s really going to have to wait. "


    "Ha ha, I''m not worried about this. You are so many Qing..." Paul smilingly shook his head and said that, let Arthur also cry and laugh.


    "My last wish is to see you and be elected Yi member of Yihui house!"


    "Tut Tut, Paul, you are really going to give me a problem." Hearing this wish, Arthur shakes his head and smiles bitterly. It has to be said that this wish, for him, is not difficult to say, and it is really not easy to say it. The key is that Arthur himself is not interested in this so-called nominal Yi member of the upper house. He is really lack of interest.


    Since 1999, when Blair implemented the semi reform of the upper house, the number of hereditary aristocrats in the upper house dropped from 647 to 92. As for the position of Yi member in the upper house, only when one of these 92 people dies or resigns, the other Yi members of the same Zhengzhi faction will choose their successors.


    For example, in June this year, after Walpole, a hereditary Yi member, resigned, many people rushed to fill the vacancy. Ten nobles submitted their applications and listed their merits. For example, some claimed to be "classical guitarist, sculptor and gardener"...


    Moreover, Yi members of the upper house are not paid, but they can get a subsidy of 300 for each day they attend the meeting. Their duty is to examine and make recommendations on the documents and bills of the house of Commons, but they have no decision-making power at all.


    The continued existence of this system of by election is ridiculous and even outraged by many people. Of course, there are supporters, but there are also many opponents.


    "Lord, we believe that the house of Lords is more than the house of Commons. No country is pure cooking. The best way is to protect the minority from the majority through checks and balances of power. The aristocracy, in Britain, represents stability."“。。。。。。” Arthur shook his head and laughed, but did not refute Paul''s view, because what he said was reasonable. Although he changed the concept, Arthur, as a noble, could not refute it.


    In Europe, if Germans are asked what they are most proud of, their answers are mostly industrial technology and economic strength. On the same issue, the French may say the Lanci culture. The answer to the maturity of the British is, in the final analysis, "stability.".


    No matter how changeable the situation may be, the British society has remained basically stable since the 17th century. In the eyes of the British, this kind of stability is linked with the keywords Junzhu, the upper and lower courts, the welfare system and so on.


    Therefore, as a member of the house of Lords, the British aristocracy is naturally included in the category of "being is reasonable", and they also represent the national history that some British people would be proud of. As for whether the nobility should be collectively removed from their hereditary titles of honor, to be honest, the British really don''t care. After all, life will not change.


    For the upper house, all the nobles in England have a yearning for. Of course, they are not for the 300 pounds, but for honor, which is my life. This is the lingering memory of the old aristocrats.


    And this kind of afterthought, also deeply affected the housekeeper Paul.


    Looking at the expectant look of Paul, Arthur, who was eating breakfast, couldn''t bear it. He said with a wry smile: "well, Paul, I promise you, if you can, if you have a chance, I won''t refuse..."


    "Lord, it''s rude, but you should take the initiative to fight for it!" Steward Paul naturally heard the ambush in Arthur''s words, said directly impolitely, his face became very solemn, a pair of eyes burning and Arthur looked at each other.


    "I''m still a kid Arthur pulled the corners of his mouth and said with a wry smile.


    Hearing this, butler Paul forehead black line, mouth also unconsciously pulled, opened his mouth, did not know how to say.
