This is indeed to be expected. Who would dare to act against the royal family? Naturally, everyone comes here to support the princess, even the Qu Clan does not dare harbor any contrary thoughts.
Over there,
The princess stands on the ceremonial platform, greeting delegate after delegate.
Here,
According to custom, the Qu Clan must arrange for the "literary, martial, witch, and noble" to first enter the ceremonial platform to settle the sedan, a practice called "settling the sedan" among the common folk.
Of course, it doesn't mean you enter and move along with the platform; rather, it's a formal gesture where you go in, have a cup of tea, and then exit.
In the customs of the Chu people, on such auspicious days, there can be ill omens, especially with wedding sedans. The lonely spirits are most averse to earthly celebrations and might seek revenge upon seeing a marriage, so the aura of "literary, martial, witch, and noble" is needed to suppress them.
