Once Ranshao took his wife's hand and left the room Yugu turned to Kai and said, "Xue is being married off to Li Bingchai...That's Minister Li's younger son." The older one had died in battle, but Bing was sickly and could barely hold a spear.

While in phantom's paradise it was highly matriarchal...here it was more towards the men than equality due to marriage. Some things were equal...most things at that, but most marriages were arranged or chosen. And Yugu had no problem talking about it when Xue was not here.

Xue was off somewhere taking off her clothes and when she was her maids simply commented on the fact that she was looking fine and she turned to the side of the mirror (yes xue is pregnant- thanks a lot friend who decided the storyline. I told her that if I use Xue again im being true to the plot. I think she doesn't meet him again till he's emperor and Mo Xi is a toddler) She looked herself back and forth as they commented that she looked as beautiful as ever putting on another thick white robe with fur on it. She discarded the other one and it trailed down to the ground leaving a train with it.

While Yugu continued to blabber, "Father and mother have been talking about it. There is no other suitable man in the court and Minister Li reccomended his son. Minister Li probably just wants to influence dad even more. He is dad's closest friend and personal advisor so of course the duty of his daughter marrying Mr. Li's son would fall upon him. Father is very good about his promises..Plus Bing always has wanted Xue in a way. He always has lusted after her and it will give him the oppurtunity to finally kiss her like he's been talking about forever." She let out a quiet sigh pulling the boy, Feng, away. She frowned at the fact that her older sister instantly came home. "Something isn't right with her. Usually she would demand food by now or fan herself harshly complaining about the temperature. Haven't you noticed as well? Ever since she went to Phantom Paradise she went soft...Even her letters were joyful. Xue is never joyful. Xue's name literally means 'snow monster." Yugu hissed out confused, "I think she fell in love with someone there. That must've softened her up."
