Chapter 385: The Wedding Banquet Begins
...... On Wednesday, the weather was cloudy with sleet and a temperature of -11C. The gray sky shrouded the sky over Dujiang City, revealing a sense of loneliness and gloom.
The icy wind, howling from afar, blew the trees on both sides of the road, swaying and rustling from side to side.
The ground was frozen with silvery-white frost, and as far as the eye could see, a little cold light was reflected. The pedestrians on the side of the road were in a hurry, shivering from the cold weather.
At 7:10 in the morning, Zhang Fan slowly opened his eyes from a simple and dilapidated small hotel, looked at the time, and found that it was already more than 7 o'clock.
Li Mu said that before the wedding feast officially began, there were still many things to prepare, so you had to get up early and rush to the lord's house.
Li Mu specially told Zhang Fan that he must get up early and not oversleep, otherwise he may miss some fun things.
For Li Mu's advice, Zhang Fan still remembered it in his heart. After hurriedly washing up in the bathroom, Zhang Fan took out the new clothes that Chu Chu bought for him from the system backpack and put them on his body, and left the small hotel.
When he came outside, Zhang Fan dialed Li Mu's phone as soon as he came and asked where to find him.
Li Mu pondered for a while and told Zhang Fan that he was going to the most luxurious place in Dujiang City, a private manor called the Emperor's Palace.
This wedding banquet was held here. And he is there. Hearing the words of the Emperor's Palace, Zhang Fan looked stunned, and surprise appeared in his heart.
Isn't this emperor's palace the property of Wang Fugui's family? Could it be that outsiders can borrow it here when they get married?
Maybe it is. Such a large place, except for the use of the Wang family during special periods, may be outsourced at other times.
If you outsource it, you can also make a lot of money. After all, people like these big families are very business-minded, and it is better to outsource and make money than to be idle.
Thinking about this, Zhang Fan sighed, came to the side of the road, stopped a taxi, and went straight to the emperor's mansion.
In the Emperor's Palace, Zhang Fan once followed Wang Fugui and Taibao and them, and was fortunate to go once, so this time I went again, I was very familiar with the road, and it didn't seem too restrained.
More than an hour passed, and Zhang Fan finally came to the Emperor's Mansion. At this moment, the main entrance of the emperor's palace is hung with bright red lanterns, and every inch of the corner is lit up with lights, which is very lively, and it looks like getting married.
A luxurious sports car, neatly parked in the parking lot outside the Imperial Palace, showing the luxurious atmosphere, a male and female waiters in white dresses, holding fruit bowls in their hands, orderly wandering outside the door, for every guest who comes, to deliver delicious food.
Not only that, but around the door, there are many people wearing fat bunny suits, holding colorful balloons, dancing funny dances, bringing joy to the surrounding guests.
Prosperous, lively, luxurious, high-end!! Zhang Fan couldn't think of a wedding of this level, it was too extravagant.
A red carpet, from the deepest part of the Imperial Palace, spread long into the street outside, and from a distance, it was almost several kilometers long.
Zhang Fan was dumbfounded, and his eyes were straight. This is too rich, ordinary people get married, I'm afraid they can't even afford this red carpet, and it really deserves to be a rich man's wedding.
If in the future, if Zhang Fan is to get married and hold a wedding, it would be good if he could have such half of the luxury. Zhang Fan secretly smacked his tongue and looked very envious.
After watching the performance of the rabbit suit man outside for a while, Zhang Fan took a piece of strawberry from the fruit plate in the hands of the male and female waiters, stuffed it into his mouth, chewed it slowly, and then walked into the emperor's mansion leisurely.
The Emperor's Palace, the gate is open, and there are people who are specially received, waiting on the side. With professional smiles on their faces, they greeted every guest warmly.
Zhang Fan walked to the door, thinking that he would be stopped, but in the end, he was too worried, and these waiters who received guests did not embarrass him, but also pointed out the direction for him enthusiastically.
When Zhang Fan saw this scene, he was a little more determined. It's best if no one stops him, and there can be a lot of unnecessary trouble left.
Zhang Fan walked into the courtyard of the Emperor's Palace, where there were also colorful lanterns, hanging red lanterns, and under these red lanterns, there were many mahogany signs, on which were written a brush font wishing Young Master Song and Miss Luo a hundred years of good harmony.
The calligraphy is written vigorously and powerfully, into the wood three points, at a glance is from everyone's hands. Zhang Fan wandered around the Emperor's Mansion for a while and began to contact Li Mu.
Li Mu told him that he would come out immediately, and hung up the phone. Less than five minutes passed, and Li Mu walked out of the hall of the Imperial Palace.
Li Mu said hello to Zhang Fan, and led Zhang Fan towards the courtyard on the other side. Because Zhang Fan had a bit of an unpleasant quarrel with his parents last night, Li Mu did not lead Zhang Fan to the hall to meet his parents.
On the way, Li Mu told Zhang Fan that the wedding banquet officially began at 11:18 p.m. When the time comes, the big families in many cities will come to congratulate.
Now while there is still time, he can just lead Zhang Fan to walk around and see the world. Zhang Fan followed behind Li Mu, and his mind fell into memories unconsciously.
I don't know where Wang Fugui and Hou Taibao are. Since the last time he called Wang Fugui, he has no longer heard from him, and the same is true of Hou Taibao, Zhang Fan just got off the plane last night, and he saw a lot of missed calls from Hou Taibao, but after he called, it showed that the other party's mobile phone was turned off, no matter how to call, it couldn't get through, I don't know what happened.
...... Li Mu took Zhang Fan back and forth in the imperial palace, going to a certain place to eat some delicious food, and then pointing to a beautiful girl who arrived, saying that she was a big star.
Li Mu led Zhang Fan around the Emperor's Mansion for a long time, and soon, a few hours passed, and with more and more guests coming, it was 11 o'clock at noon in a blink of an eye.
At this moment, the time for the wedding banquet to start has also arrived. Zhang Fan followed Li Mu and took his seats one after another. The place where the dining table was set was located in the back of the Imperial Palace, in a huge villa palace.
Zhang Fan and Li Mu's table are both young juniors and belong to school-going children. These children are not very old, they are all teenagers, and they are the same age as Li Mu, and they all look like they are fifteen or sixteen years old.
They were dressed in gorgeous suits and handsome, all in the style of rich children. Zhang Fan is the only adult at this table.
His presence is incompatible with the rest. As they sat down, the lights of the entire palace gradually brightened up little by little.
Seeing this scene, Zhang Fan knew that the banquet had begun. However, before he could say anything, suddenly, in the next second, Zhang Fan only felt that his right shoulder was suddenly gently patted.
Sensing the abnormality, Zhang Fan subconsciously turned his head to look, and saw a short-haired, beautifully dressed woman, looking at him with a smile.
This woman is not very tall, and the whole is full of cleverness.
"You are?" This short-haired woman, Zhang Fan has no impression and does not know her.
"Hello! My name is Mulan, first time we met, please advise!! The short-haired woman, showing two rows of white teeth, looked at Zhang Fan gently, and took the lead in introducing herself.
"Mulan?!" Zhang Fan was stunned, he was very unfamiliar with this name, and he had never heard of it at all. To be honest, when he heard the word Mulan, Zhang Fan subconsciously thought of the very famous Hua Mulan in ancient times.
"Is there anything you want me to do?" Zhang Fan smiled politely. Looking at the harmless appearance of the other party, Zhang Fan faintly felt that this Mulan was either a relative of Song Qing or a relative of Miss Luo.
In short, for the relatives of the main family, Zhang Fan still faced it with a humble attitude. Mulan looked like she was self-cooked, sat down beside Zhang Fan with a big grin, and under the gaze of Li Mu and the others, she held a plate full of fruit salad into her arms and ate it by herself.
Seeing this scene, Zhang Fan couldn't help frowning, not only him, but even Li Mu and the others were full of black lines.
Good guys, this fruit salad, they haven't eaten a bite, so they let you be a bad woman, and give it all to one person, which is too overbearing.
The corners of Zhang Fan's mouth twitched, swallowed his saliva, and hurriedly moved his chair and Na Mulan's seat away from some positions.
"Why are you sitting so far away?" Mulan looked at Zhang Fan and pulled a big grin from herself.
Hearing this, Zhang Fan scratched his head in embarrassment, saying that it was a little crowded and he couldn't breathe. When Mulan heard this, she looked stunned, but she quickly laughed and said, "You're too funny!" ”
"It's okay, it's okay!" Zhang Fan only replied symbolically. Seeing this, Mulan threw the dried and wiped fruit salad plate on the table, and then stretched out an arm and put it directly around Zhang Fan's neck, the corners of her mouth rose slightly, revealing a weird smile, and said in a low voice: "You are a bit interesting, how do I think of you, you don't look like a bad person, how can you ...... Will you kill Bai Bing?! ”
"Huh?" At this moment, after Zhang Fan heard the name Bai Bing, his brows furrowed abruptly, and his face changed suddenly.
"What are you talking about? I don't understand! Zhang Fan's voice became cold and said in a low voice.
"Do you not understand, or do you pretend not to understand? When you killed Bai Bing, you weren't so indecisive!! ”
"You said yes...... Zhang Fan!! The smile on Mulan's face was still the same, with an understatement on her face, very casual.
"You...... Is it Bai Bing's friend?! Zhang Fan broke free of Mulan's arm, looked vigilant, and stood up suddenly.
