Upon hearing that his grandson and granddaughter-in-law had returned, Old General Xu Ziming hastily set down his wine cup and ordered his servant, "Quick, quick, summon the Ritual Officer!"
National Master Xi Xiaomeng was also anxious to have the incense table set up because Emperor Xuan had also given him an Imperial Edict to be proclaimed when the Seventh Prince and the new bride performed their wedding bows.
When she was helped into the hall, Ji Ruyan was still holding an apple in her hand.
Luo Shunchen glanced at Ji Ruyan, clad in her red bridal gown, his heart filled with excitement, for he was finally about to be wedded to her!
Senior Brother Chu Lanqian was also extremely busy, scarcely having a moment to sit as he accompanied Old General Xu Ziming around to toast the guests and attend to their needs.
Just when they managed to get a brief rest, the bride and groom returned.
Now, they had to help Old General Xu Ziming to his seat at the higher end of the hall.
