Chapter 536 So You Are Chaleman

Chapter 536 So You Are Chaleman

British Empire, five o'clock in the evening, Earl William's Court.

Located in the earl's mansion on the outskirts of the Port of London, there will be an unprecedentedly grand noble dinner tonight.

It is said that not only many famous nobles have been invited this time, but also members of the royal family will be present.

The original intention of the dinner was to celebrate Earl William's re-election as a member of the House of Lords.

At this time, in the back garden of the mansion, goldfish were raised in the circular pool, and the evergreen shrubs were trimmed neatly into a criss-cross pattern.

Next to the ups and downs of the steps, there are magnificent statues of the twelve constellations.

As the second son of Earl William's family, Feng Yi did not go to the front hall of the mansion to entertain guests, but hid in the back garden while he was busy.

He leaned on the Roman column next to the statue, played with the pocket watch in his hand twice, and looked up at the man on the steps, "I have never seen Charman himself, I heard that he never attends this kind of dinner, you are so sure he Will you be here tonight?"

Shang Yu was wearing a very formal black suit, with a dark gold and black bow tie around the neckline, and half of his shirt sleeves and canary diamond cuff buttons were exposed on his wrists.

The cufflinks and bow tie are all dark gold background, which is also the color embellishment that complements each other on the man.

He lowered his head and folded his sleeves, his thin lips slightly tilted, "He will come."

Feng Yi raised his eyebrows in surprise, "From what you mean, you seem to know him very well."

Shang Yu subtly paused the movement of straightening his cuffs, turned his head to look at Feng Yi, and raised the corners of his lips meaningfully.

After half a cigarette, Feng Yi walked from the side of the statue to the side of the man, "Did the siblings really return to China?"

"Um."

Feng Yi frowned, "Aren't you afraid that she will sneak back under the identity of Tan Sri now?"

Shaoyan didn't want Li Qiao to have any contact with the Charman family, which he had implicitly expressed when he came to Yingdi.

The man glanced at the cuff buttons on his wrist, then raised his head and looked forward, "No, if Tan Sri gets caught again, the General Administration of Customs will notify me."

Feng Yi pressed the corner of his mouth and nodded in understanding.

Immediately, the two walked down the steps side by side. After a few seconds, Feng Yi stood still suddenly, with a little disbelief in his eyes, "You are in the General Administration of Customs... and have connections?"

Shang Yu glanced at him from the corner of his eye, his outline contained a bit of laziness, "Strange?"

Feng Yi squinted his eyes, looking at the figure of the man walking down the steps, and suddenly felt that if one day he became a member of the British Emperor's royal family, it seemed that it would not be difficult to accept.

After all, Nanyang Shang Shaoyan is indeed unfathomable.

...

Western aristocratic dinners, the scene is always unprecedented.

Tonight's Earl William's House almost included more than half of the noble members of the British Empire.

After all, Earl William has re-entered the House of Lords. From a political point of view, it is enough for many nobles to come to seek relationships.

After years of development, the noble honor of the British emperor is no longer as noble and brilliant as it was in the last century.

In recent years, the royal family has exploited the rights of nobles.

The dinner was arranged in the most luxurious Willemdam Hall in the mansion. The women wore gorgeous dresses and crowns that showed their identity, and most of the men wore neat suits or tuxedos. Gentleman culture has always been a personal symbol of nobility.

It can be said that this is a Vanity Fair where wealth and celebrities gather.

There was still half an hour for the dinner to start, and the mansion was already brightly lit. Earl William, who was over 60 years old, was wearing the most orthodox tuxedo and was standing by the fountain pool talking about state affairs with his staff.

Suddenly, the butler came to him and whispered a few words in his ear, with a bit of joy on his wrinkled face.

Earl William hastily said excuse me, and hurriedly followed the butler to the main entrance of the mansion, his back was still eager, and his inquiry could be heard from a distance: "Is it really Prince Wu Lu who is here?"

...

On the other side, William Church Courtyard.

In front of the lawn of the church with a brown steeple, Shang Yu stood with his back to the entrance and his hands behind his hands.

There are many aristocratic knights of the William family standing around the church, all with solemn expressions and eyes looking at all directions.

In just a few minutes, there was a sound of steady and rhythmic footsteps from the lawn wall in the back garden.

Two rows of royal knights cleared the way ahead in unison. The man walking in the middle, wearing an elegant gentleman's gray check suit and a white glove on his left hand, walked towards the church lawn unhurriedly.

The distance was shortening, and when the surrounding noble knights saw the royal knight and the red hat medal on the opponent's chest, they immediately bowed neatly and saluted, "Duke."

This person, the Duke of Charman, the British emperor who succeeded to the throne three years ago, had the ancestral surname of Xiao.

When the royal knight stood still, Shang Yu also slowly turned around from the front of the church.

The two men stood in the courtyard of the magnificent church, looking at each other.

Duke Charman has a gentle temperament, unlike Shang Yu's sharp-edged appearance, with a smile on his thin lips all the year round, giving people a gentle feeling like a spring breeze.

But if you look carefully, you can find that there is no smile in his eyes, cold and desolate.

"haven't seen you for a long time."

Duke Charmain spoke first, with one hand sticking to his belly, and his every move described the gentleman and elegance of a nobleman.

Shang Yu raised his brows grimly, put one hand in his pocket, and his posture was arrogant and cold, "It's been a long time."

The smile on the corner of the other party's lips deepened, and his voice was as gentle as water, "It seems that you are sure that I will come over tonight?"

The man's eyes were deep, and his thin lips raised a mocking smile, "She's not here, so you have no reason not to come."

"That's right." The Duke of Charman lowered his eyes slightly, and walked forward like a leisurely stroll. "Although we have different opinions, we still have a tacit understanding on this matter."

Shang Yu hooked his thin lips and his eyes were sharp, but before he could speak, there was a very clear and shallow sound of footsteps coming from behind the lawn wall beside the two of them.

All the knights immediately made a defensive posture.

Under the dark sky, only the glazed lights around the courtyard can make people see clearly how stiff the figure in the black fringed skirt is.

She was standing alone by the lawn wall, holding a champagne glass in her hand, wearing a black veil on her face, only the exposed pair of deer eyes were absurdly stuck on Duke Charmain's body.

The wind blew and lifted her veil.

And Shang Yu's pupils were constricted to the extreme, and even his handsome face, which had always been indifferent to emotions, suddenly changed.

Not only him, but even the Duke of Charmain suddenly clenched his palms and looked at Shang Yu with gloomy eyes, but at the moment when he saw that he was more shocked and terrified than himself, something suddenly collapsed in his heart.

Li Qiao's appearance here was beyond everyone's expectations.

She walked forward step by step, her steps were messy and she didn't know it.

With a clicking sound, the champagne glass in her hand shattered, and the wine mixed with blood, dripped onto the lawn, but she kept holding on to the fragments without letting go.

Li Qiao walked in front of Duke Charmain, and the distance of a few steps seemed to have crossed thousands of rivers and mountains.
