Ling Hua received a message from Yun Luo while she was dealing with an unannounced visit from Xiao Qingyu, Princess of Rong'an County.
Xiao Qingyu had wanted to storm into the Ling Family the day after the marriage arrangement transfer document incident with Qin Huan and Yan Qing had happened. When she learned that Ling Hua had left the palace for the Marquis Duanjing residence, she waited and waited, and it turned out to be a whole day before Ling Hua emerged. The next day, just as she intended to visit her, Ling Hua re-entered the palace to discuss marriage details with the Empress Dowager and officials from the Ministry of Rites. Xiao Qingyu was left waiting again for another day.
It wasn't until the third day that she cautiously observed for half a day, and only upon seeing that Ling Hua had not left the house did she feel at ease to visit the Ling Family.
