“No need.”
Ye Xue'e had her own ideas: “Qingluo is still young, and her heart isn't set on this matter. As long as Liuyun is willing to wait, there will eventually be a day when the clouds part and the bright moon is revealed.”
“Madam's words are truly wise.”
As someone who prided herself on being Madam's close confidante, Ying'er naturally wouldn't defy Madam's wishes. She finished laying out the paper, picked up her brush and ink, and handed them to Madam.
Ye Xue'e furrowed her brows in thought, pulled out a chair to sit down, and started to write the letter.

Outside the Morning Sun Hall in the Imperial Palace.
An attendant, with furrowed brows, couldn't believe what he was hearing as he looked at Ji Liuyun: “Young Master, are you really going to marry the Empress and give up your own position to stay in Fengqi Empire for her?”
“Liuyun is also considering the interests of the Ji Clan in this decision.”
Ji Liuyun had gone through careful deliberation before making his choice: “The Ji Clan has already reached its peak after helping the King of Yan ascend to the throne. From now on, we will slowly decline.”
“The young people in our clan do not know how to restrain themselves and act recklessly. Sooner or later, they will arouse the suspicion of the Emperor. When that time comes, if no one is able to protect our family, our house will collapse overnight.”
“Young Master means…”
The attendant's eyes flickered as he understood the hidden meaning: “Staying in Fengqi is to protect the Ji Clan?”
“Exactly.”
Ji Liuyun did not deny his thoughts: “The new Empress of Fengqi is a rare, exceptional woman of the time. With her, Fengqi will eventually become the ruler of the entire Chonghe Continent, and even unifying the world is not impossible.”
“Liuyun isn't lacking self-awareness. Wanting to attach myself to the new Empress to achieve my goals, even if I cannot marry her, staying in the Fengqi court to make a name for myself will be enough to make my life worthwhile.”
“Young Master, do you really want to wait forever?”
The attendant lifted his eyelids, glancing at the Young Master's expression, and couldn't help but feel a bit sympathetic: “What if the Empress is devoted to cultivating and doesn't want to get married…”
Ji Liuyun didn't even have to think before he interrupted: “If she doesn't get married for a day, I'll wait for a day, if she doesn't get married for a year, I'll wait for a year. Even if I have to spend my entire life alone, I will be content.”
“Young Master.”
The attendant's heart sank, and he wanted to persuade further.
“You don't need to say anything else, my mind is made up.”
Ji Liuyun waved his hand, signaling him to leave.
“Yes.”
The attendant heaved a disheartened sigh, stepped back, turned around, and left.
Ji Liuyun stayed silent for a moment before returning to the Morning Sun Hall, picking up a brush, and writing two lines on the paper.
In the past, even the sea was too insignificant to be mentioned.
Without Wu Mountain, it is not a cloud.

The Flower Appreciation Banquet arrived as scheduled on a sunny day following the snowfall.
Early in the morning, the entrance of the Duke of Zhen's Mansion was teeming with noise, and the crowd flowed in a steady stream. Carriages came and went, and the atmosphere was lively.
Duchess of Zhen, intending to choose a granddaughter-in-law, invited all eligible young ladies from noble families in Capital City to attend the Flower Appreciation Banquet, making the event particularly grand.
A large red satin carpet extended from the front door of the Duke of Zhen's Mansion to the alleyway. Every noble daughter who came to attend the Flower Appreciation Banquet got off their carriages at the entrance of the alley, accompanied by their maidservants, stepping onto the red carpet and entering the mansion.
The extravagantly dressed noble young ladies, surrounded by their maids and old servants, appeared like a group of peacocks competing in beauty. With graceful steps, they swayed seductively, stepping on the red carpet one foot at a time, walking through alleys, and entering the Duke of Zhen's Mansion.
Princess Huimin, Li Mulin, and He Biqiu were among them.
Dressed as if they were delicate flowers in the spring, the girls braced the biting winter wind and walked through the alleys, shivering from the cold, yet still breathtakingly beautiful.
As the noblewomen arrived one after another, they entered the mansion where young servants and maids greeted them and escorted them to the back garden.
