Chapter 203: Can't Restrain

Having originally planned to participate in two family matters after the emperor's departure tomorrow, Shen Chengyao did not expect the emperor to delay his departure, wanting to attend a wedding banquet he had been longing for.

Shen Chengyao found himself in a dilemma. Organizing a banquet in the village required a great deal of help from villagers, like slaughtering chickens, ducks, pigs, borrowing bowls and tables, and entertaining guests. Such a function implied a great deal of planning and execution.

Moreover, he had a strong relationship with the village chief since childhood, who had helped him a lot. Shen Chengyao did not feel it would be appropriate to only attend the banquet when the chief's daughter was getting married.

Also, his elder uncle was getting his daughter married on the same day. He was already under pressure, and now he also had to take care of the emperor, a fact he could not disclose to others.
