Chapter 369: The darkness and light at the wedding!

The vast and grand hall of St. Paul's Church in Macau, and the high dome not only depicts many angels and miracles, but also the lighting wells embedded in stained glass by the plaids.

There is also the hall facing the innermost end of the door. The wall is composed of a huge wall, made of large stained glass windows from the top to the bottom. In front is a huge cross, above which is the suffering Jesus. The stone wall is covered with stone carvings of the sun, the moon and the stars, as well as monsters with plant patterns and fantasy.

There is also the faint echoing and lingering sings in the earth, which makes the entire hall feel as if they are in a vague illusion of gods, strengthening the sacred religious color of teaching.

Archbishop Rona stood on the steps in front of the altar, wearing his gorgeous and solemn bishop's robe, looking at him with a kind expression and loving expression.

His Highness, the Spanish Princess on the right, was wearing a gorgeous and elegant white wedding dress, shyly covering his fiance's hot gaze with his long thick eyelashes.

Archbishop Rona glanced at the lucky one on his left. Even if this young oriental man looked at the aesthetic view of Westerners, he could be regarded as a majestic man. However, the thought of His Royal Highness, who was beautiful and noble, would become the wife of these orientals, made him feel a little uncomfortable.

But as a shepherd of God, he must perform his duties in the divine wedding. He cleared his throat and continued his preaching words: "As the Bible says, "If the Lord had not built the house, the builders would have labored in vain." The Bible also says: "Ask him in all things you have to do, and he will guide you."

… Let us bow our heads and pray that the Almighty and eternal God cares about you in our actions and survival. Please give us a clean heart and an upright spirit, so that selfish desires will not prevent us from knowing your will, nor will weak prevent us from obeying your will. In this way, we can see the light in your light through Jesus Christ and gain true freedom in you. Please be with us at this moment, and bless us with your faithfulness today’s gathering…”

The bishop's long presiding words continued, and the guests invited to attend the wedding almost represented the highest level of the entire Western colonization in the East, Groning, Governor of the Dutch colony, Governor of the Spanish colony, Governor of the Spanish colony, Brigadier General Cameron and his wife, commander of the French army to the East...

Of course, there was also a special guest, Viscount Edmund Burke, a member of the Supervision Committee of the East India Company of the UK. In fact, the person invited by Liang Pengfei to come to the East to attend Liang Pengfei's wedding should be Lord Dundas, the chairman of the Supervision Committee of the UK East India Company of the UK.

However, when Lord Dundas heard that the East India Company's fleet had become the trophy of others, he left a suicide note and swallowed opium and committed suicide. After that, he had to be a senior member of the Supervisory Committee, and Edmund, one of the twenty-four shareholders of East India, attended the wedding on behalf of the East India Company, and beside him was Lord Macartney, the British diplomat.

Viscount Edmond's appearance was older than when Macartney saw it half a year ago. Macartney could not give any comfort to the other party, but instead fell into deep self-blame. If he had not thought that the time for the British Empire to knock on the gate of the country had come, and had drawn almost all warships from India, and most of the troops to the east, then the British would not have given them the colonies that they had carefully managed in India and Bangladesh for more than 100 years in such a short time.

"Okay, dear George, don't worry. Actually, my thoughts are exactly the same as you. Even without your suggestions, our committee will make the same decision." After Viscount Edmond saw Macartney's expression, he comforted the good friend.

The two were good friends when they were in England, but no one expected that in India, after the first pleasant meeting in Kolkata, the place where they met again would be at the wedding that caused the British Empire to lose most of the colonies and wealth in the East.

"Look around us, do you think they have become the final winners? No, look at their expressions, beneath those hypocritical smiles, there are fear and worry. Although they possess the pearl of our British Empire in the East, they are like a group of lying on the bed covered with gold coins and jewelry. Not only does it make them unable to fall asleep peacefully, but they are also afraid that some more fierce robbers will break in..." Viscount Edmond's mouth was a little crazy and vicious sneer. His eyes were deliberately pointing to the Zhongshan suit wearing a pure black, half open collar, revealing the white and beautiful standing collar shirt inside. Standing on Bishop Rona's left, Liang Pengfei with a happy face.

Seeing Viscount Edmond's expression, Macartney knew very well how painful Viscount Edmond's heart was. The opium trade of the East India Company fell into his hands. It was said that he used his skills to cut it so that the East India Company had to buy the tea, porcelain and silk that Britain needed from merchants in other countries.

There is also the East India Company that is rampant in the East and used to deter other Western colonists to now fall into his hands, and he also holds more than 10,000 British prisoners of war in his hands.

Seeing this Eastern man who had never met, but had already collapsed the interests of Britain in the East by his series of sinister and vicious actions. Viscount Edmond had the urge to rush forward and pierce countless holes into his body and then sprinkle the salt into his wounds.

However, it was just an impulse. The murderous aura that was scattered throughout the church and the powerful Chinese soldiers who were scattered inside and outside the church, and their casual but blood-devouring and fierce eyes were warning these ill-hearted people who came to attend the wedding.

"If I have a gun in my hand, I'd be happy to point the gun at him." Macartney's murmur beside him also expressed Viscount Edmond's heart.

On their side, there were many Western colonial officials and Western merchants whispering secretly. Of course, they tried their best to be careful not to find out.

"His Royal Highness of Spain's eldest princess became his wife, which is not necessarily a good thing for Spain. You should know that although the colonial situation in the East seems relatively calm, the head of state will definitely not allow this peace to last too long."

"...Who knows, anyway, if the Spaniards thought they could do whatever they wanted in the East with the support of this guy, it would anger us all."

"Shh, let's just say, do you think you already have the capital to yell here? This guy has always turned his back on others. Think about the countries that have fallen into his hands, keep a low profile, try to keep a low profile. I don't want to cause any trouble..."

Liang Pengfei swept the invited Western guests from the corner of his eyes. There were quite a few people among this group of people who were brave, but Liang Pengfei was not afraid. At least, they really did not have the capital to scare Liang Pengfei now.

Today, they were invited to attend their wedding with His Highness Maria, not just to win over the relationship between the two parties, but importantly, Liang Pengfei wanted to let these Westerners witness this wedding and give their dear Maria a perfect explanation, a grand and luxurious wedding.

Of course, Liang Pengfei, who is ulterior motives and thinks that this is more than this idea, because as long as the church recognizes the legitimacy of the wedding, then in the future, Liang Pengfei's big hand covered with blood from the West can reach Europe.

After all, the identity of the Spanish princess husband is not a joke, but Liang Pengfei is indeed sincere to Maria, a beautiful young woman in Western religion.

Liang Pengfei looked at his beloved Maria with a smile. She wore a white and gorgeous wedding dress today, which fully highlighted her hot figure. She had bright eyes and white teeth, and she was so charming and unparalleled, and the joy and expectation on her cheeks added a bit more charming.

At this time, the lengthy prayer finally came to the point after consuming Bishop Rhone's saliva.

"His Royal Highness Carlotta, Princess Ruokina, would you like Liang Pengfei to be your husband and live with your partner as a friend? Do you love him and respect him? Do you want to be equal with him and share happiness together, whether it is painful or poor..." As Bishop Narona's voice was high again, all the slandering words disappeared without a trace, because the wedding had reached its climax.

Maria raised her head and looked at Liang Pengfei, who was standing opposite, wearing a decent black dress and a very nice black knot on her white shirt. Looking at the gentleness and weakness on his face, and the strong love revealed in his eyes, Maria closed her eyes intoxicatedly, took a deep breath, and replied with great devoutness: "I am willing! I am willing to be Liang Pengfei's wife, willing to be equal with him and share happiness together, whether it is pain or poverty..." Clearly, a beautiful voice as pleasant as a nightingale instantly spread throughout this extremely wide church.

The echoes from far and near came one after another, and they shone with the faint sound of the sings, as if the angel was singing...

Her voice rang out in the tall and majestic church of St. Paul, as if this church existed to witness this wedding that will be remembered forever by the world.
