At the funeral of Queen Elizabeth II, there was a touching scene, which made netizens talk about it so far.
Her corgi dogs, Muick and Fergus, stood in the mighty funeral procession and watched the queen complete the last journey of her life.
Two corgis, one listlessly lying on the ground, one with its head down, silent, sadness already overflowing the screen.
According to Dr. Roger, the trainer of the Corgis:
Because dogs are inherently more discerning than humans, and the queen is also by her side when she is dying.
So they know clearly that their beloved master is no longer there.
This can't help but make people sigh --
During the seventy years of the queen's reign, dozens of beloved corgies were sent away intermittently;
Now, it is inevitable that the day Corgi will send the queen away.
The queen's only favorite, Corgi, is known to the world.
Whether in life or in public, the Queen is often photographed with her dogs.
Her preference for Corgi began in childhood.
At the age of seven, the Queen's father, George VI, brought Corgi Dookie back to the royal family, and soon after, his father brought back Jane, Ching, Carol and other friends.
Therefore, the Queen's leisure time in childhood, in addition to her family, is spent with the dogs.
The queen's liking for Corgi, the father saw in the eyes, remembered in the heart.
So, on the Queen's 18th birthday, her father gave her Corky Susan.
It was the first, the Corgi who belonged entirely to the Queen, and the most important best friend to her.
Due to her status, the queen is not free to choose her friends;
Moreover, even in front of friends, the queen could not willfully express her true emotions, so as not to damage the image of the royal family.
But in Susan's presence, she was not a queen, not a symbol of a nation.
She's just Elizabeth, Susan's best friend.
In the eyes of outsiders, this pair of "master and servant" have very different personalities.
Throughout her life, the Queen fulfilled her duties and regarded the rules of the royal family as the norm of all conduct.
Susan, on the other hand, was naturally aggressive and undocile, and even bit the royal clock, but the queen never blamed Susan.
Perhaps, Susan's unfettered free soul is exactly what the queen yearns for, but cannot have.
Xu was influenced by Susan, and at the age of 21, the queen did the most outrageous thing in her life - to violate the royal family's rules.
Before the Queen and Prince Philip married, she decided to take Susan with her on her honeymoon.
Helplessly, this did not conform to the royal rules, and after thinking about it, the queen decided to be bold once.
During the big wedding, the Queen hid Susan in a carriage and took her with her to Scotland to enjoy the once-in-a-lifetime honeymoon.
Unfortunately, even the queen could not make happiness permanent. After 15 years with the Queen, Susan died.
The Queen was grieved by the death of her best friend.
But fortunately, Susan's descendants have been breeding, and they can replace Susan and always accompany the queen.
As of 2015, it had more than sixty descendants.
Of these, about thirty were taken care of by the Queen herself, and the rest were given to the Queen's trusted relatives and friends.
Before each little corgi is sent away, the queen will personally name them.
The little corgis who stayed in the royal family lived very comfortably.
The Queen arranged for a royal chef to take care of the dogs' diet.
The ingredients are always eaten only on the freshest meats, such as chicken, beef, rabbit and liver.
To avoid choking on the corgis, each piece of diced meat is cut strictly to the standard.
When the dogs rest, there is also a special lounge and a comfortable cotton;
And, to ensure that they are not unexpected, there are also special servants to take care of them.
They love to lie around, and the former royal butler has been tripped by a few corgis.
Naturally, the queen also runs the risk of tripping over these "moving carpets", but she has never restrained them.
The royals were very worried, after all, the queen was older, and if she accidentally tripped over Corgi, the consequences could be very serious.
But the Queen did not listen to them, and she felt that this was not a reason to separate her from the Corgis.
It wasn't until 2015 that the 89-year-old queen agreed not to raise new dogs.
Because she was worried that after she left, no one would be able to treat Susan's descendants as hard as she did.
In 2018, Susan's last descendant, Willow, passed away.
Although the queen had already sent away dozens of corgis before Willow died,
But this time, she may be as sad as when she sent Susan away.
Susan is a pet given to her by her father, a testimony to the previous affection between the queen and her father;
Willow, on the other hand, was Susan's last "faithful companion" to her.
As soon as Willow died, her emotional link with her fathers, George VI and Susan, broke off again;
The memories of the good times she spent with Susan as a child playing with hordes of corgis and spending time with Susan are a little more blurred.
After dozens of departures of "best friends", the queen is reluctant to raise a new corgi, lest she experience similar pain when she bids herself farewell.
But in 2021, after the death of her husband, Prince Philip, who has been with the queen for 74 years, at the age of 95, her psychological self-healing ability is no longer as strong as before.
The Queen's second son, Prince Andrew, worried about her physical condition and, despite her mother's decision not to have a pet again, brought Corgi Muick and Fergus to her mother, hoping to alleviate some of her bereavement.
Muick and Fergus are like the Queen's elixir, and in their company the Queen's grief does lessen.
Unfortunately, after only a short year with Muick and Fergus, the Queen died.
Although, the queen has long thought about not letting the dog send herself away,
But the fate of helplessness seems to be arranged, to let her favorite Corgi accompany her through the last journey of life.
At the funeral scene, the natural pain of Muick and Fergus touched the hearts of countless netizens.
They grieve for Muick and Fergus for losing their beloved owners, and they also lament the Queen's passing.
Prince Andrew, who had just suffered the loss of his mother, decided to continue to take care of Muick and Fergus.
Muick and Fergus, perhaps also the treasures that the Queen left to Prince Andrew in her honor;
As precious as the Susan that George VI left to the Queen.
The death of the Queen may have been the beginning of another life for her personally.
As her great-grandson, the Little Prince Louis, said:
"She can be with her great-grandfather again now."
Similarly, she can finally be reunited with Susan and the other little corgis.
She is no longer a queen who needs to follow the rules, but a happy and free Elizabeth.
