Zhou Shuren felt somewhat envious of Wang Yi, for Wang Yi could still leave the capital while he had no chance to do so. He thought of the Retired Emperor. Ever since the trade route had been established, the Retired Emperor had visited the place, an old man who still embarked on a ship to sail the sea.
Zhou Shuren also possessed paintings of the Retired Emperor's sea voyage, proudly sent back by the Retired Emperor himself.
Wang Yi suddenly spoke, "The Princely Heir, Ming Teng, the grandson of the official, has been out for several months, hasn't he?"
Zhou Shuren, "Why do you ask about him?"
Wang Yi replied with a smile, "I thought I'd be able to attend a joyous wedding feast this year, but it seems that will not be the case now."
Zhou Shuren explained, "He will wait until next year to get married."
