During the Shangyuan Lantern Festival, the Emperor and Empress hosted a banquet at Yong Garden. It was ostensibly for the enjoyment of monarch and courtiers, but in truth, it was for the Prince of the North to choose a consort.
At the banquet, the daughter of Marquis Cheng'en knelt gracefully and offered to perform a song titled "Mist and Clouds over Xiao Xiang". Modestly, she concluded, "I am not talented; please forgive my audacity."
A man in a black brocade robe at the head of the table coldly interrupted, "If you know it's audacious, then refrain from performing."
The hall fell silent, with no one daring to speak out. Miss Ming from the Ming family, seated at the far end, stole a glance and felt that the Prince of the North was outrageously arrogant and lacked propriety, far from being a benevolent person.
Later, on their wedding night, amidst the glow of candles in the bridal chamber, after the wedding wine had been drunk and the red candles shimmered brightly, Miss Ming nervously helped the man undress.
Suddenly, he remarked, "I have heard of your famous song 'Wild Goose Landing on the Sandbank' that has made waves in the capital."
She pretended to compose herself and hesitantly asked, "I am not talented, so... should I... demonstrate my humble skills?"
Glancing up, she met a pair of eyes that seemed to smile knowingly. "It's not humility at all. This prince only thinks that my wife is exceedingly beautiful."
Featuring a delicate young lady from head to toe, from her meticulously styled hair to the patterns on her shoes, and a Prince of the North who was fierce in battle and sparing with words.
