In the bustling Tokyo, the rare secluded places are no longer secluded today.

Passing through the gray and red torii gate, a faint sense of history hits your face.

This is the largest existing wooden Myojin Torii in Japan. It was built in the 1950s of the Showa era and is located at the intersection of the North and South Sandways. A huge amount of money was spent on renovations.

To the south of the Torii Gate, there are rows of wine barrels on both sides at the end of the shrine. The left column is for Western wine barrels, and the right column is for Japanese sake barrels.

Generally, most of the wine barrels in shrines are donated by Japanese sake manufacturers, but there are also a few ancient shrines that have their own breweries, so Meiji Jingu naturally has its own collection.

But today, the display above is obviously much smaller. If it were used for a banquet, it is hard to imagine what the scale would be.

The giant trees on both sides of the shrine are towering into the sky, wild birds are flying, and they are not desolate at all due to the winter. The branches are covered with ropes for blessings.

Extending further outside the garden, there were men in black suits lined up neatly. They put away the coldness and fierceness on their faces in the past, and saluted the guests one by one.

The guests who came here were also very cautious. After showing their invitations, they slowly entered Meiji Shrine with their female companions or family members.

Today is not a cleanup. The Sheqi Eight Family has never ordered the Meiji Shrine to be closed. After all, it is a national scenic spot. In the past, some people rented it to get married, and others could come and go at will.

Entering the wedding venue, if you are thoughtful, you can also send your best wishes to the new couple.

But a group of gangsters, even if they put on neat suits and greet people with stiff smiles, are really intimidating to ordinary tourists.

Today is December 20th, the day of Yuan Zhisheng’s wedding.

Lu Chen was wearing a moon-white Hanfu today. Because Yuan Zhisheng was the head of the eight Sheqi families, the wedding was a traditional wedding in front of gods, and the guests had to follow the local customs.

But he was not used to wearing kimono, so Yuan Zhisheng very considerately prepared a suitable Hanfu for him.

He reached out and helped Eriyi out of the car. Eriyi was wearing a light blue gown today, which is a form derived from modern culture.

The origin of the coat dates back to the Muromachi period, when the wealthy samurai women wore the coat over the kimono with inner sleeves from autumn to spring. Because of the thick material, it had a thermal effect.

In the Edo period, women with higher status, higher-level female officials and public women would also wear "sika" to highlight their status. By the late Edo period, some women from wealthy families used "suka" as wedding clothes.

.

In the original traditional wedding, there was no such thing as "bridesmaid". The bride would wear a red gown as her wedding dress.

The Kami-style wedding is different. The bride will wear a pure white "Hakumo". In order to reflect the status of the bridesmaid in Eri, a light blue gown was prepared for her today.

In fact, Yuan Zhisheng originally wanted to imitate a certain cool Italian and hold more weddings. For example, he thought Sakura looked good in a Western-style wedding dress.

But a lot of things happened recently, and his plans were somewhat disrupted. In the end, under the advice of his brother and father, he only chose to have the most traditional Japanese wedding.

Caesar and Chu Zihang were dressed more casually today, or rather too casually. They were wearing the "Sword Hero Uniforms", "Tianxia Iban", "White Crane and Chrysanthemum" that they wore when they first came to Japan. They followed Lu Chen and Hui

Behind Li Yi, he browsed the scenery on both sides of the shrine.

"So...is this an emergency?"

Natsumi was currently wearing a light yellow kimono with long sleeves, and looked suspicious of Ryuusei.

She was called over by Senior Brother Lu in the name of "urgent recruitment mission", but after she landed, she was taken to the hotel by Chu Zihang...

Oh, settled her down.

Then she and Chu Zihang spent a day shopping in Tokyo. They went to all kinds of aquariums and movie theaters, but Chu Zihang didn't explain to her what was going on.

Then Xia Mi understood that she had fallen into Lu Chen's "treacherous plan"

But that's fine, just use the trick.

"Junior sister, this is definitely an emergency. Look at the people who came to the wedding. They are all in pairs. How embarrassing is your senior brother Chu?"

Caesar was on the side helping Chu Zihang, who was paralyzed, to excuse himself.

Xia Mi looked at Caesar and said a knowing sentence, "What about Senior Sister Nuonuo?"

Caesar was embarrassed for a moment and immediately stopped talking.

In fact, he originally thought that since it was a tourist trip, he might as well call Nono over to play together, but he... couldn't contact Nono again.

Nono's roommate Susie said that she seemed to have gone to some small country to play, and there was no mobile phone signal.

The wedding scene was packed with people, and it was only at this time that the prosperity of the Sheqi family was highlighted.

Except for the Orange family, which has ceased to exist in name only, not one of the other seven families was absent. Counting from the heads of the eight families downwards, all those with some status came to support them.

After all, it is the parents' wedding, so it must be lively.

Gen Zhisheng was wearing a traditional black kimono today and was receiving guests at the scene. Although he has a high status, many people here can be regarded as his elders.

Now that the fate of the eight Sheqi families has come to an end, the support of other families in this process also plays a big role.

"Lu Jun, can you drink?"

Yuan Zhennu stood beside Lu Chen, feeling both happy and worried.

"fine."

Lu Chen smiled and asked, "The girl's bloodline is so high, it shouldn't be a problem, right?"

In this kind of traditional wedding, the best man actually does not need to do anything special, and there is no game of knocking on doors to help Sina get through.

The main purpose of their existence is to help Yuan Zhisheng support the event. They will take some photos before the wedding starts, and then take another group photo after the wedding. Finally, they will drink for Yuan Zhisheng.

Since it is said to be based on tradition, we can't do anything false. Especially the essence of the Sheqi Ba family is the underworld, and they believe in the Yakuza. When the groom should toast, you can't drink "white" wine (water)

After Yuan Zhisheng became the emperor and his bloodline improved again, his physical fitness in all aspects became much higher, but drinking was still his weakness.

In the past, a bottle of sake could make him tipsy, but now it wasn't much better, so the important task fell on Lu Chen and Yuan Zhennu.

“There are a lot of people.”

Yuan Jingnu said shyly, he was actually quite good at drinking. When he was a member of the Fierce Ghosts, he drank almost every day, and often mixed it with "cocktails".

But the eight families in Sheqi have a big business, and they want to drink all of them. He is a little unsure.

The wedding began, and with the help of Eriyi, the bride finally appeared.

Sakura's body is "White without dirt". As the name suggests, all the clothes and accessories on her body are also white, which symbolizes the purity of the bride. In addition, "White Without dirt" is like a piece of white paper, which means that the personality of the bride has also become a blank piece of paper.

, the bad habits of the mother's family can be completely erased, and the family is waiting to learn all the family traditions and customs of the husband's family, just like a piece of paper waiting to be dyed.

But in fact, in Lu Chen's view, Sakura has been a blank slate for a long time, and was painted with his own colors by Brother Yuan.

There were so many etiquettes that Lu Chen wanted to doze off when he saw them, the rituals, the congratulatory speeches, the three dedication ceremonies, the oaths, the exchange of thumb wheels, the offering of jade strings, the toasts of relatives...

Only Mr. Uesugi was very patient and was happy from ear to ear.

The old man is almost ninety years old, and he never imagined that he would see his children getting married in this life. But suddenly, in the year 2009, he went from finding out that he had three children to having a grandson.

So fast.

Thinking of this, he looked at Lu Chen, who was standing not far away, and felt much more pleased with him, even a little encouraged.

After that, Lu Chen and Yuan Zhennu accompanied the bride and groom to entertain the guests. Everyone in the eight Sheqi families was frightened.

Although it is a formality, the person toasting is either the patriarch of the family or the strongest mixed race in the world. If it were not for today's occasion, they would not dare to do it even if they had the courage to do so.

Yuan Zhisheng held Sakura's hand, his face full of happiness. His life was finally on track, he had passed through the deepest darkness, and was about to reach heaven.

Caesar and Chu Zihang, who were sitting in the guest seats, continued to enjoy the delicious food from the eight chefs in Sheqi after watching Yuan Zhisheng and others leave.

"They look very happy. They are all thanks to Senior Brother Lu..."

Natsumi felt a little emotional. After her fight with Uesugi Koshi, she naturally also investigated some things about this monster family in Japan.

She felt that the Uesugi family was extremely miserable and extremely lucky. Without Senior Brother Lu, they would probably be... completely wiped out, right?

"It's just too complicated... It looks so tiring, and I have to remember a lot of things..."

Xia Mi complained again.

Chu Zihang sat next to Xia Mi and turned to look at her, "What kind of wedding do junior sisters think is good?"

This was completely a question based on what the other party said, but it made Xia Mi stunned for a moment.

I was panicked for a moment, and when I saw Chu Zihang's paralyzed face and his calm eyes, I knew that I was thinking too much and that this idiot was just answering the question.

"Just keep it simple, it won't be so tiring."

Xia Mi turned his head away with a guilty conscience.

"I see."

Chu Zihang said calmly.

"You two, stop for a moment, something doesn't seem right."

Caesar interrupted what he thought was an ignorant couple who were frantically testing each other, with a slightly serious expression.

He frowned slightly, "Have you heard any strange sounds?"

"What sound?"

Chu Zihang came back to his senses and listened carefully to the various sounds around him.

Xia Mi also put down the chopsticks in his hand, his face changed slightly, "How is that possible?"

At this time, Lu Chen, who had just drank a glass of sake, also stopped and raised his hand to hold Yuan Zhisheng, who was about to go to the next table.

They had basically completed the transfer. According to the process, Yuan Zhisheng could take his beloved Sakura to the bridal chamber, but Lu Chen felt something was wrong at this moment.
