Chapter 1388: The Princess's Funeral
It stands to reason that in today's situation, there should be traffic jams in nearby neighborhoods.
But people knew the route from Kensington Palace to Westminster Abbey, the site of mourning, so they spontaneously took action, preferring to take a detour rather than this way, hoping that the hearse carrying the princess's body could reach the church unhindered, which was the only thing they could do for the princess now.
When he saw these scenes, Han Xuan was extremely shocked in his heart, he only knew that Princess Diana was respected by people before, but now he understands what kind of respect it is.
Who is good and who is not good, the people have a scale in their minds, and I believe that even if the queen herself dies, it may not happen today's scene, because the queen will always be high, ruling the country, completely separated from ordinary people, and the princess is their amiable princess......
Han Xuan invited William and Harry to the United States several times, but they were not in the mood to travel, so they asked someone to give them a small white chinchilla, which is the son of Mickey and Minnie, and is much smarter than ordinary chinchillas.
It seems that they liked it so much that they even brought it to the funeral, and they were being held in Harry's arms.
Both princes' eyes were swollen, and the wounds of the loss of their mother took a long time to heal, and they were both minors, and three months was not enough time to digest the pain.
Walking into the familiar Kensington Palace, Han Xuan also saw Princess Diana's ex-husband Duke Charles, I don't know what kind of mood he felt when he faced his ex-wife's frozen coffin and posthumous photos, but it can be seen that he was very unhappy, and he couldn't see much sadness that should have been revealed, and he felt a little unworthy for the princess, probably her happiness was also a victim of imperial politics.
He took care of Mr. Kissinger, the former Secretary of State of the United States, greeted Earl Spencer, the younger brother of the Princess, and shook hands with British Prime Minister Tony Blair, Queen Elizabeth II, First Lady Hillary Clinton, French President Jacques Chirac and his wife Mrs. Bernardette, and the world-famous tenor Pavarotti.
This is the first time that Anya has attended such a solemn occasion as Han Xuan's girlfriend, and while people are talking to Han Xuan, they have not ignored the beautiful girl next to him.
There are many reporters on the scene, and under their wolf-like gaze, if they are not afraid of becoming the target of criticism and condemnation by the people at night, no one dares to laugh on such an occasion.
Even when they greeted each other, they had a serious and serious expression, which made Anya think that they didn't like her, especially Pavarotti, who had a thick neck, a big beard, and a straight face.
As he was about to go to the church, Han Xuan walked in the direction where the two princes were, put his arm around them, patted them on the shoulder, and said comfortingly: "I know that this is an unacceptable moment for you, please accept my condolences ......"
Don't look at the prince's noble status, in fact, they can't make too many intimate good friends at all, in the eyes of William and Harry, Han Xuan is one of their close friends, although they usually have little contact, but they are very happy to get along.
When someone assassinated their mother, when the two little princes learned that Han Xuan accidentally saved her, they also made a special call to express their gratitude, and at the end of last year, they were going to come to the United States for Christmas, and the little prince Harry also specially prepared a cake made by himself to thank him again, and the pocket money was not much, which was the only thing he could do.
It's a pity that the bad news happened too suddenly, and before the cake was handed over to Han Xuan, he heard the passengers on the same passenger plane talk about the death of Princess Diana, and hurriedly let the plane turn around and fly to France.
Seeing Han Xuan at this moment, Prince Harry, who was still very young, couldn't help but be sad and cried again, William was also depressed, after such a long time, he had already made it clear to him the fact that his mother was gone.
Han Xuan reached out and touched the chinchilla in Harry's arms, this little fat guy struggled to get out, followed Prince Harry's black suit, and ran all the way to Han Xuan's hand, it seems that the royal food is very good, the white chinchilla was raised fat, no lighter than its father Mickey.
When the reporters saw Han Xuan talking to the prince, they took a few photos to publish in the newspapers, and some reporters were immediately excited, because Giovanni, the heir of the Borromeo family, was also present today, and Gabriel the Elder was also in attendance.
When Prince Saeed of Dubai went to the Snow Mountain Ranch to play, he asked about Han Xuan's defendant.
Indeed, Han Xuan was really sued by Giovanni, so old Gabriel specially brought his son today and came over to accompany him.......
This matter starts from the day Giovanni held an adult ball in New York, Han Xuan angrily shook his hand and slapped Giovanni, and then he was taught by his father and didn't sleep all night after returning home.
The more I thought about it, the more angry I felt, and I felt that my face had disappeared with the slap, at least the attitudes of several rich ladies who were very close to me in the past became estranged, and all kinds of ridicule and ridicule spread in the upper circles, making everyone know.
Giovanni didn't think about using his connections to spend some money to teach Han Xuan a lesson, in fact, he really did it, but when the few underworld bigwigs he found heard that the target was Han Xuan, their faces turned white with fright on the spot.
No one dares to take this job, if it weren't for the $10,000 benefit fee, and the Borromeo family has a lot of relations with the Italian mafia, maybe they would have sold the news to Han Xuan or Old Man Han and formed a friendship.
With Han Xuan's current status, he is not a person who can be provoked at the gangster level, and the relationship between Old Man Han and the Chinese gang, no one on the road does not know, if the arm buried in the ground is not thick enough, he will be picked by someone in the early stage of the development of the SOS Group.
Faced with their perfunctory attitude, Giovanni jumped to his feet in anger, subconsciously thinking that the gangsters did not seem to be as ruthless as the legend, and they were all a bunch of timid and fearful guys.
In the end, he concealed from Lao Gabriel, and took the initiative to ask a lawyer to sue Han Xuan in the Federal Court of New York, on the charge of "intentionally hurting people", knowing that there was no hope of winning, but he just wanted to take this opportunity to disgust Han Xuan, and by the way, to save some face for himself.
There is no impermeable wall in the world, and at that time, Gabriel asked people to spy on him, and found that someone from the gang had entered his room, so he paid attention, and Giovanni asked the gang to prepare revenge on Han Xuan, and finally reached the ears of Old Man Han.
The old man's personality is not as elegant as when he was with Han Xuan, and the bloody scene of the dead horse's head in the "Godfather" movie is reproduced, but this time Giovanni received a bullet casing.
When he got up in the morning, the bullet casing was placed on his bedside table, and someone wrote a small note that read: "Use your brain before you do something, and advise you not to have a second time." ”
Giovanni immediately thought of the scene where Han Xuan scolded him for being brainless, and when someone broke into his room at night, and the bodyguard at the door didn't notice it, he was really scared.
As soon as the lawsuit was reported by the media at his behest, Giovanni had the idea of withdrawing the lawsuit, feeling that the little guy was too evil.
In the end, the matter of litigation was still settled, and in fact, the judge did not want to touch such a difficult case.
Justice is the justice of the super-rich, and the Constitution is their Constitution, and there has never been an example in the history of the United States where the super-rich have been sentenced for such a small matter.
If he is found guilty, it can only mean that the strength is not enough, and the strength of the Han family is definitely enough, an unlucky judge just took over the case, and in a blink of an eye, he received a call from the US Federal Attorney General in person, not specifically about the matter, but specifically mentioned Han Xuan's name, which is enough to express a lot of problems.
In Kensington Palace, in front of his father Gabriel Borromeo and Han Xuan, Giovanni pretended to be arrogant and proposed reconciliation, Han Xuan never took him seriously, and the handshake was over.
The old Gabriel was very good at being a man, and gave Anya a condolence gift, which was sent directly to the Royal Academy of Art, and did not even give him a chance to refuse, and when he returned from the funeral, he found out that it was the Russian painter Shishkin's "Raindrops in the Woods".
The value of the gift is a bit high, the picture is so beautiful that it looks like a photo, and if it is sent to auction, the turnover will be at least more than 10 million US dollars.
I returned it when I was stupid, blaming the other party for being too thick-skinned, and it hurt my hand when I was beaten, and the medical expenses were just right, Han Xuan shamelessly asked Anya to accept her.
This painting was previously collected in the Tretyakov Art Museum in Moscow, Russia, but somehow it ran into the hands of old Gabriel, Anya listened to Han Xuan, and passed it on to her mother to appreciate, as for Mrs. Cecilia, she thought that art had no owner, no matter where it came from, and said that when she finished appreciating it, she would donate it to Han Xuan's museum, so that more people could visit its beauty.
Shortly after Gabriel Sr. left, the Queen personally announced the official start of the Princess's funeral, and the guard of honor carried the coffin, loaded it into a car, and then the car carrying Diana's coffin, escorted by the Royal Guard and the Welsh Guard, left Kensington Palace, where she lived.
Along the way, more than a million people fell silent to pay their final greetings to their beloved Princess Diana, Duke Charles, Prince William, and Prince Harry, walking behind the coffin, and behind them were 500 people who worked for charity, representing the 110 charities that Princess Diana cared about or held positions in during her lifetime......
