It was nearing dusk.
Representatives of the various factions gradually arrived.
The wedding ceremony of Yao Tao and Jiang Xiaobai officially began at this moment.
Li Zhōujūn and Yao Huangcun were seated at the high altar.
The high altar faced the main entrance. A red-carpeted avenue ran through the center, with guests from the various factions seated on either side.
At this moment, Lu Bei, serving as the master of ceremonies, walked to the side of the high altar. After cupping his hands to everyone, he called out, "The auspicious hour has arrived! Please welcome the newlyweds!"
As his voice fell silent,
maids carrying red candles entered the restaurant in pairs. Behind them came Jiang Xiaobai, dressed in a festive red robe and beaming from ear to ear, and Yao Tao, clad in a phoenix crown and red bridal robes, holding the other end of a length of red silk.
Seated at the high altar, Li Zhōujūn watched this scene with the smile of a proud old father.
Yao Huangcun felt like crying inside, but he had no choice but to smile. After all, this was his daughter's grand wedding day.
Next, under Lu Bei's calls, Jiang Xiaobai and Yao Tao bowed to Heaven and Earth, bowed to the high altar, and bowed to each other. After that, Yao Tao and Jiang Xiaobai entered the bridal chamber.
"Peach, wait here for now. I still have to go out and entertain the guests from the various factions." In the festive bridal chamber, Jiang Xiaobai restrained his excitement and spoke to Yao Tao.
"Mm." Beneath her red veil, Yao Tao nodded and answered shyly.
Inside the restaurant,
Li Zhōujūn went over and sat down at Duàn Cāngqióng's table.
"Congratulations, congratulations," Duàn Cāngqióng said with a smile.
Li Zhōujūn smiled faintly.
