Chapter 661: She Decided to Present a Fait Accompli
Five o’clock in the evening.
The Guan Family’s wedding banquet was a traditional Chinese wedding, with the Guan Family strictly adhering to ancestral customs.
The wedding consisted of a morning welcome and an evening procession, with dusk being the auspicious time.
After considering the birthdates of the bride and groom, the ceremony was scheduled for 6:18 PM. Guests were already arriving one after another.
The formerly austere and historically-laden main gate was now wide open, with red silk draped on the two large stone lions at its entrance.
Festive decorations adorned the place!
Everyone knew the Guan Family was marrying off their daughter and welcoming the son-in-law into the family. Yet, on the surface, it was still being held as a traditional Chinese wedding.
The Guan servants dressed cheerfully to guide the esteemed guests inside. The once desolate and quiet Prince’s Mansion was brimming with vitality for the first time. The previous birthday celebration felt like a sunset overshadowed by ulterior motives.
This time, however, the occasion marked the imminent leadership of Guan Jingtan and her husband over the Guan Family, representing a shift in Imperial Capital’s balance of power.
The guests ranged from heartfelt well-wishers to gossip-mongers, opportunists, and those harboring malicious intent.
