Even taking a carriage from Su Cheng's house to Baiyang palace still takes some time.
Su Cheng, sitting in the carriage, opened the curtains of the window of the carriage and looked out in order to pass the boring time.
Pandragon is the political, economic and cultural center of the British Empire. It is also the most populous city in the British Empire. It is the only big city in the British Empire with a population of more than one million.
Even at night, all parts of pandragon are still brightly lit. There are a large number of small vendors on both sides of the street, day and night, shouting hard for passers-by to see his goods.
Although these small vendors occupy both sides of the street and damage the city's appearance, it has to be said that without these vendors, the excitement of the whole pandragon will be reduced by a few points.
Normally, pandragon's night is lively enough. But Su Cheng found that tonight seemed more lively than ever.
Both the pedestrians on the street and the vendors on both sides of the street are much more numerous than before.
Looking at the busy street with people coming and going, Su Cheng thought a little and figured out the reason:
Today is the last day of 289 in the imperial calendar. After 12 o'clock tonight, it will be the new year. Tonight is the last night of this year. In order to commemorate it, many people choose to go out tonight.
Many small vendors must have seen that there must be a lot of pedestrians on the road tonight, so they will go out to set up a stall tonight.
After looking at the busy street outside the window, Su Cheng took back his eyes, pulled back the curtain of the window, then leaned back, leaned against the soft seat back behind him, and closed his eyes.
"Is tonight the last night of this year... A lot of things have really happened this year..."
Su Cheng whispered to himself in a voice that only he could hear.
Su Cheng recalled the past events of this year.
In the first half of this year, he also lived in Mr. Falk's residence with Carol and Alan and was Mr. Falk's "doorman".
At that time, he was just a nobody and had a good specialty. Maybe he could tell stories, read many history books and study history.
However, Mr. Falk's business began to decline gradually. In order to reduce expenses, he had to choose to fire some unimportant "doormen".
Su Cheng and Alan were fired.
Carol, who was not dismissed, also volunteered to leave. She left Falk with Su Cheng and Alan and came to pandragon.
On the way, I met Deng Jiaer. The 3-person team grew into a 4-person team.
Obviously, the first half of this year was so flat, but after leaving Falk and coming to Pendragon in the second half of this year, the experience began to become wonderful.
In the first half of this year, he never thought that in the second half of this year, he became an imperial knight.
And fought two battles!
He was promoted to Xingui knight in World War I and double oak knight in World War II.
The speed of promotion is appalling.
Perhaps no one will be able to break his record until the British Empire perishes.
After these two wars, he gradually became famous, and his fame has gradually spread.
He is now walking in the streets of Pendragon, and someone can always recognize him.
From an ordinary civilian to a little famous knight, from obscurity to fame.
Too many things have happened this year.
"We should continue to refuel in the new year..."
Su Cheng smiled bitterly and rubbed his temples on both sides, cheering and encouraging himself.
Just then——
"Sir, the Baiyang palace is here."
——The voice of the coachman came.
"Yes." Su Cheng answered casually.
Then the coachman jumped down from his seat, then quickly walked to the carriage and helped Su Cheng open the carriage door.
After coming out of the carriage door opened by the coachman, Su Cheng smiled and thanked the horse Lane:
"Thank you. You worked hard all the way. Thank you for pulling the car for me."
After hearing Su Cheng's thanks, the coachman was slightly stunned, then hurriedly saluted Su Cheng, looked flattered, and hurriedly said:
"It's very kind of you, sir! It's my duty to pull a car. You don't need to thank me. "
As soon as the coachman's voice fell, Su Cheng smiled and patted him on the shoulder, and then went straight to Baiyang palace.
After entering the Baiyang palace, two attendants greeted him immediately.
There are stoves in every corner of the white central palace, so the whole white central palace is warm enough to walk in single clothes.
One of the attendants took Su Cheng's coat off and put it away, while the other attendants asked Su Cheng if he had an invitation to tonight's year-end dinner.
Su Cheng nodded. After answering "yes", he took out the invitation letter plated with Phnom Penh and exquisitely like a work of art.
After receiving the invitation and confirming the authenticity of the invitation, the attendant showed a professional smile, made an "please" to Su Cheng, and then led Su Cheng to the banquet place of the year-end dinner.
Soon, the attendant led Su Cheng to the banquet place of the year-end dinner.
After entering the banquet venue for the year-end dinner, Su Cheng's first feeling at the banquet venue was - big!
The banquet place is amazing!
Su Cheng roughly estimated that even if there were more than 1000 people in this banquet place, they would not feel crowded.
The year-end dinner is dead, and there are hundreds of people. It is more than enough for hundreds of people to hold a banquet in such a large place.
Around the venue, there are many chairs and small tables, which is a special place for guests to rest.
In the center of the venue, there were rows of long tables, on which pieces of white silk were spread.
Silk is a very expensive cloth in this strange world. Generally, only aristocrats and businessmen with too much money can afford it.
And this year-end party used such expensive silk as a tablecloth
Su Cheng has begun to understand why this year-end dinner is famous for luxury all over the world.
Although the dinner has not started yet, a lot of food has been placed on the long table.
Su Cheng looked at the food on the table, most of which were appetizing fruits and vegetables.
In addition to a lot of appetizers, there are also a lot of fruit juice and wine on the table.
Su Cheng walked to the table with good wine, and the attractive smell of wine came to his face.
Just by smelling, you can detect that the wine here is absolutely first-class and good wine.
Looking at the table full of all kinds of wine in front of him, Su Cheng couldn't help smiling and thought: if Carol was here and saw so many wine, wouldn't she be happy to die? However, if Carol is really here, although she will be very happy, she certainly won't drink.
In this world, people with a little common sense know that britannians love to drink black tea and hirans love to drink.
It is said that for every 100 empty wine bottles in the world, 60 are solved by the hirans.
You can see the good wine of Hiram.
Carol, who was born in the Holy Hiran Empire and is a pure blood Hiran, naturally has this characteristic of Hiran.
However, although Carol likes drinking as much as most hirans, she can't drink like most hirans
Even the degree is a very low "gin". Carol will get drunk after a few sips.
Carol is not only easy to get drunk, but also easy to get drunk and talk nonsense.
Carol still knows that she is prone to alcoholism.
Therefore, in public, Carol will never touch wine. She will drink some secretly only in private.
Therefore, Su Cheng is sure that even if Carol is here, she will not touch these wines. She will only hide and swallow saliva while enduring.
At the thought of this, Su Cheng felt that Carol seemed a little pitiful. Because of her drunken personality, she could not drink her favorite wine in public.
Just then, Su Cheng remembered what he had told Carol before he left home that he would try to bring some wine back here.
Su Cheng thought:
Just ask someone if you can take some wine left after the party.
Just as Su Cheng was about to move and ask someone, a familiar old voice came over:
"Mr. Cheng, you are here."
Su Chengxun passed by and found an old man wearing monocles standing behind him, looking at him with a smile on his face.
"Mr. Jacob!"
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
