Chapter 1030 Victoria and his wife
London, England.

Queen Victoria in Buckingham Palace is playing with her children in the Royal Gardens. In her arms is Princess Louise, who was just born in March. This is her and Prince Albert's sixth child in eight years of marriage. .

Queen Victoria looked at the little princess in her arms and smiled happily, humming the children's songs she heard when she was a child.

“Our mother river is the Rhine, which is the longest river, followed by the Weser, Elbe, Danube and Main
The Weser, the Elbe, the Rhine, where do they flow? Their destination is only the North Sea."

It is almost the original version of the later children's song "The Best River in Germany".

Queen Victoria didn't notice the expressions of the nearby maids and maids at all. She was just immersed in the world of herself and her children.

Although the queen's maids and maids are all British, it is quite normal for ministers serving the royal family to know several foreign languages.
The meaning of the lyrics is nothing more than the repetition of some simple nouns and tones, but it has a profound meaning to British ears, especially when it is spoken by the Queen of England.
Regardless of the complicated thoughts of some people, Buckingham Palace is sunny and sunny at this time, with green grass, gentle breeze, and a little fragrance of blooming flowers.

The laughter of children and the gentle reminders of the maids can be heard from time to time in the garden, making people relax and want to take a nap to enjoy the tranquility and harmony.

With those Irish people who risked their lives and even traveled across the ocean just for a bite of food; those textile workers who still had to work in factories despite the burning sensation caused by steam engines in a closed environment under high summer temperatures; those young people Orphans with broken hands, legs, and disfigured faces, who can only beg on the roadside; and female workers who cannot live without selling their bodies.
It is in sharp contrast to the people living at the bottom of the British Empire, but no one cares about this, almost everyone takes it for granted.

But that doesn't include Prince Albert, who, unlike the Queen, who is lying flat and in a mess, still holds on to the dreams of his youth.

"Reflect on the shortcomings of our time, and call on all people to correct these shortcomings by starting from themselves, and thereby set a good example for others."

Prince Albert once studied history and philosophy, and wrote this in his book "On the Germanic Thinking Pattern and a Brief History of Germanic Civilization".

As a royal carriage slowly drove into the royal garden, a familiar figure came out.

The children gathered around him in an instant, because their father always brought back some novel gadgets.

Prince Albert picked up his eldest son Edward and asked him affectionately: "How is your reading going?"

Edward, who was very excited just now, immediately jumped off his father's arm and ran away. Several other children were also watching nervously, ready to run away at any time.

Fortunately, Prince Albert only had strict requirements for the eldest son. He immediately smiled and asked the attendants to distribute the gifts to the children, and he walked alone to his wife, whom he had not seen for a long time. The two of them spoke loving words, hugged and kissed each other as if they were newlyweds, making the maids around them envious.

Victoria handed the little princess in her arms to Prince Albert, who looked at the little person in his arms with a loving smile on his face.

The little princess also stared at her father's face curiously, seeming to feel the warm love, and a sweet smile bloomed on her face.

Victoria covered her mouth with tears in her eyes. Prince Albert approached the queen and held her and the child tightly in his arms. The attendants around him were moved by the heartwarming scene.

However, the happy time did not last long. Prince Albert's face became serious. As a wife, Victoria knew that her husband had serious business to talk about.

"Miss Linda, please take the children back first."

The queen's maid on the side immediately woke up from her daze, then carefully took the little princess and put the princess and prince into the carriage together with the other maids.

After the servants and children left, Prince Albert spoke first.

"Victoria, Britain is in crisis, and your most trusted teacher, Mr. John Russell, has messed up everything.

The whereabouts of tens of thousands of soldiers are unknown or may have been buried at the bottom of the sea. The total price of the lost fleet has exceeded 10 million pounds. In addition to the fleet, what is even more terrible is our loss in commerce.

Now our trade between the UK and the Mediterranean business circle is facing the risk of a comprehensive default. In addition, a large number of our country's merchant ships have also been intercepted by the enemy. All the losses combined are enough to trigger another financial tsunami.

By then, three-quarters of the insurance companies in the UK will have gone bankrupt, along with a large number of banks, including the Bank of England. "

The Bank of England would go bankrupt. This was something Victoria had never thought about. She only thought it was alarmist.

Of course, Albert noticed from his wife's expression that the other party didn't believe it at all, and he didn't believe it at first. However, the number of merchant ships intercepted in the Mediterranean and the huge amount of compensation required made him have to believe it.
