Just before the luxury wedding car arrived, a special automatic carpet was used as a pilot, spreading a red carpet of more than 200 meters from the entrance of the venue to the fountain garden. While laying the red carpet, the car also had a flower sprayer, spraying various rose petals and sprinkling them on the carpet surface as decoration.

Immediately afterwards, two camera cars followed behind, one left and one right to perform scenes, and a light helicopter hovered around at the wedding scene, carrying out aerial photography in order to reproduce the wedding scene in three-dimensional way.

The invited guests left their seats at this time and gathered outside the cordons on both sides of the red carpet.

The first luxury wedding car stopped at a distance of 100 meters from the garden. The door slid open, and a man and a woman appeared in front of everyone in wedding dresses.

"Oh, the bride is so beautiful!" someone next to him immediately exclaimed.

"Mr. Chen, you're wrong. That's the best man and the bridesmaid! Didn't you see the sign on someone's chest?" Someone immediately corrected.

Sure enough, everyone took a look. The signs on the chests of men and women in the car, and the logos made of gold wire are indeed the words groomsmen and bridesmaids. However, everyone has also seen that the groomsmen and bridesmaids are only bought for this outfit, and they are afraid that there will be more than tens of millions of yuan. Especially the fine jewelry and decorations arranged by the groomsmen and bridesmaids are all starry-like and carefully made of solid-colored diamonds and gold threads. The diamond decoration inlaid in the European crown surface is worth more than 20 million yuan, and the groomsmen holds a scepter in their hands. A bloodstone at the top is red, and you can see that it is of great value from a distance.

The person with knowledge immediately recognized this scepter. It was the one used when the Byzantine Emperor Himradal I was crowned. It was also one of the top ten precious scepters listed so far, and it is invaluable.

However, the identities of the best man and the bridesmaid are naturally different, they are Fan Kang and Xiao Qiang.

Fan Kang was naturally not as cool as the groom, but with a standing collar, the black gambling cloak set off his handsome appearance and temporarily decorated his gentle golden silk eyes, so he had to be more elegant first.

Xiao Qiang's outfit attracted the focus of countless flashes, and the lights that kept on illuminating for a while were even more dazzling than the bright sunshine.

"Fortunately, I have prepared myself before, otherwise these flashes alone will make people unable to open their eyes." Xiao Qiang held Fan Kang's handwriting and posed in the most elegant posture while whispering to Fan Kang.

"It's all caused by illness. Are you tired? I was arrested and harassed by him since last night. After walking through this ceremony today, I immediately went home to go to bed." Fan Kang replied.

Fan Kang is a lazy person. It is not that he is so lazy. But from a mentality, he does not like this noisy scene, nor does he like to be busy with business all day long. He has spent some time on enjoying the fun. A little half of his income in the year has been dispersed.

He and Xiao Qiang were the pioneers. Then an extended wedding car stopped. Thirty-six male and female flower girls walked down one after another, all of which were very popular. They divided into two rows and followed Fan Kang and Xiao Qiang, and stopped fifty meters away from the Fountain Garden.

The third extra-long wedding car stopped. It was a very tall wedding car. It looked like a double-decker bus, but it looked like an ordinary sedan style. It looked very strange. When the car stopped, the front face suddenly opened, like a landing ship. Then a metal gangway more than five meters long poked out inside.

Fan Ting and Han Chu stood on the automatic gangway and let the automatic gangway slowly descend. It felt a bit like a Martian get off the spaceship. Everyone was a little dumbfounded. I wonder where such a cool wedding car was made?

However, someone immediately introduced that this car was specially tailored for Fan Ting's wedding and was not sold to the public. However, judging from the attention of today's wedding scene, it is estimated that this kind of car is likely to become popular in a small range. Of course, it must be tailor-made for the sake of saying hello in advance, and ordinary people cannot afford this thing.

As Fan Ting and Han Chu stepped on the red carpet, solemn music started to sound. In order to enhance the music effect, Fan Wubing also brought two huge organs from Germany and built a huge echo wall around it with metal walls.

When the sound of the organ sounded, the huge resonance caused made the immersed people feel excited and their hearts were greatly shocked. The piano player who played the organ was an authentic clergy invited from the Vatican and had the title of bishop.

Next, the hundreds of singers who were temporarily serving as choirs began to perform several predetermined songs. Everyone was the best in the industry. When they picked up the music and started singing, they were much stronger than the feeling brought by ordinary choirs.

Fan Ting and Han Chu were also a little nervous. Although Fan Ting had been the boss for a long time and had seen too many people in the business and political circles, it was the first time that a thousand people in the business and political circles were watched by people like today. In addition, today is a very important day, it is inevitable that you will feel a little timid. In addition, the rendering of the scene deliberately created by Fan Wubing is really a little overwhelmed.

Fortunately, when everyone was very excited, the music gradually became smaller and everyone's emotions began to return to normal.

In the garden, the elders of the bride and groom gathered together and looked at the two newcomers who were about to walk over with a smile.

If the Chinese wedding ceremony was adopted according to the original intention of the elderly in the two families, but in that case, due to Fan Heng's current identity, it would be difficult to deal with. Therefore, Fan Wubing adopted a Western wedding very decisively, so everyone just needs to watch the ceremony next to him, but there is no need to leave the red tape.

In this way, the central leaders who are special guests can also participate throughout the whole process and sell the full face of Fan Heng's family. Otherwise, it would be difficult to support them because it was too cumbersome and too ostentatious.

Fan Heng and his wife accompanied their in-laws and central officials to watch the ceremony. The friends who had friends with each other, such as Boss Zhu, Minister Zhang of the General Logistics Department, and several Central Committee members who often came and went to each other, had gifts. Everyone sat there and watched the newlyweds walk into the garden and came to the platform built with flowers.

At this time, everyone had a question in their minds, which person is qualified to host such a grand wedding?

Just as everyone was speculating, the sound of singing poems sounded again, and a team of clergy, about forty people, walked out slowly from the back of the garden in various costumes.

Among the people present, in addition to many people from both business and political circles in China, there were also many foreign politicians. After seeing the team that appeared, these people immediately screamed, which then formed a sensation like a tide, and cheered like a tsunami.

"This is" the knowledgeable figures present were stunned, "The Pope's guard of honor!"

The Pope's ceremonial guard appeared in front of them. They were very young, with a handsome and clear appearance, with a reserved manner, holding prayer flags in their hands, and walking slowly with artifacts in their hands. The selection of the Pope's ceremonial guards was very strict, and they must be Swiss, Catholic, single, 174 cm tall, and without beards. Every May 6, the new ceremonial guards had to take oaths in the Vatican to commemorate the 147 Swiss soldiers who died in the defense of the Pope on May 6, 1527.

In this Vatican team with white robes, an elder is eye-catching. Although there are figures similar to his age next to him, only his crown and belt, a gold and silver robe, and a gold-plated triple bronze crown, looked very solemn. It was Pope Paul II.

Although many people in China disagree with religion and heard from Pope Paul II, the old man in front of him was very calm and elegant, and he really stood out. There were many believers among the guests nearby. Seeing the Pope coming, they couldn't help but feel more enthusiastic. Some shouted at the top of their lungs, and some reached out to the sky to pray. Obviously, they didn't expect this scene and were overjoyed.

The central officials present were also a little confused about this. No one had received any news that Paul II would attend Fan Ting's wedding, nor did they expect that Fan Wubing could actually bring this member to host the wedding. It was a bit off guard.

But considering that everyone is attending this wedding in their own capacity and is hiding it, it is not easy to react too aggressively. After all, this is just a private occasion, and there is no need to make things too rigid.

According to the Catholic wedding agenda, the bride must wear white wedding dress, headdresses, flowers, handwear, etc., and the groom should also wear tuxedo and red or black bow tie to coordinate with the atmosphere of the church wedding. With the accompanying of the "Wedding March", the bride's father will take his daughter and slowly walk to the Holy Spirit to deliver her to the groom. The wedding begins.

Then the clergymen set up the altar, the bride and groom kneel on the stool, prepare a plate, holy water, and the newlyweds gather at the entrance of the church, and the clothes are changed, and the tutor is ready. The priest and the auxiliary sacrifice are waiting in front of the altar, and the witness takes his place.

The ceremonial master announced the start of the wedding, and the zither played music, namely the "Wedding March". The newlyweds moved forward steadily and knelt down in front of the altar. Then the priest began to preside over the wedding, and the zither played the background music "Ode to the Virgin".

Then the ceremony announced that the newlyweds would hug and show their love, and everyone applauded. Then the newlyweds knelt down and thanked God, stood up to thank the priest, thanked the witness, thanked both parents, thanked the guests, friends, staff, and then took photos.

But the situation today is obviously a bit different. First of all, Fan Ting and Han Chu were not Catholics before, and the current scene is not within the church, but a temporary altar built. Another very important thing is that Pope Paul II, the main priest, and the auxiliary priest was also the Cardinal in Red, which was unprecedented in scale.

According to previous standards, this treatment is only possible for the emperor to enjoy when he is crowned or married.

The most important point is that the Vatican has not established a formal diplomatic relationship with the mainland, and has been in a relatively opposed state of ideology before.

Paul II was born in Poland and is the second pope in history to be not Italian. Compared with his position, former Soviet President Gorbachev once said that there is no Pope's Iron Curtain, and many former Soviet republics also hold this view.

However, in January this year, Paul II visited Cuba, which is also a socialist country, and has a good attitude towards Cuba. He criticized the long-term embargo on Cuba, which hurt the Cuban people. This exercise won the trust of the Cuban government and people, and helped Cuban Catholics gain more freedom. He also criticized extreme corporate capitalism.

Paul II was not in good health. After two premeditated assassinations and cancer threats, his health became worse and worse. In recent years, not only did he remove a tumor from his large intestine, but his shoulders were also dislocated, and his appendix was removed the year before yesterday. So under such circumstances, he was able to come to Fan Ting's wedding to host himself, which was obviously not expected by everyone, and ordinary royal members could not get this opportunity.

The pope is a lifelong system. After the death of the former pope, the pope composed of cardinals from all over the world elects another new pope. The election must be conducted strictly in the traditional way since the Middle Ages. The election adopts mutual election method, and those who receive more than two-thirds of the votes are elected. The candidate list is not mentioned in advance, so multiple votes are often required to obtain results.

During the election, the situation of the election must not be spread. In order to wait for the result of the election, millions of believers gathered in St. Peter's Square outside the Sistine Chapel, staring at the chimney of the Sistine Chapel. Every time the vote is voted inside, smoke comes out. If the smoke comes out black, it means that the election has not yet been achieved. If white smoke rises on the chimney, it means that the new pope has been elected.

The Pope has always been Italian, but Pope Hadriah VI was a Dutch. The non-Italians became the pope caused an uproar and tragedy. The Romans at that time believed that making a non-Italian a pope was a rebellious. The Romans rushed into the Sistine Chapel, beat up the cardinals who participated in the election of the pope with stones and sticks, and robbed all the valuable things in the church.

It happened that the plague was spreading in Europe at that time, and the pope, who was born in a poor carpenter family, became the target of public criticism. One year and August, the pope died inexplicably. The Romans not only did not accept mourning, but celebrated the events as big as the festival.

More than four hundred years later, Pope John Paul II, who was elected in 1978, was not an Italian but a Polish. After the news came out, the 150,000 people gathered in St. Peter's Square were very surprised and discussed.

However, the results of this election did not cause any storm. On the contrary, Paul II was warmly welcomed by tradition when he appeared on the balcony of St. Peter's Temple.
