Commentary for Ketubot 6:6

וליעקריה גזירה עבידא דבטלא ותקנתא דרבנן מקמי גזירה לא עקרינן אי הכי בשלישי נמי אתי ובעיל מספיקא לא עקר נפשיה

But [then] let them abolish it? A decree is likely to be annulled, and [therefore] we do not abolish an enactment of the rabbis on account of a decree. If so, on the third day he [the governor] would also come and have intercourse [with the bride]? Out of doubt he does not move himself.
