As the evening wore on, a procession of carriages began arriving at the governor's mansion, each discharging elegantly dressed guests who made their way inside for the highly anticipated welcoming banquet. The mansion was adorned with the soft glow of countless lanterns, casting a warm and welcoming light over the scene.
