The matter of petitioning for the Heir title went through very smoothly.
The Marquis's Estate relied on the merits of its ancestors; with Song Mingjian dead, it was only right and proper for his son and heir to inherit the title. Once Song Yanqing had children of his own, he could then petition to be granted the title of Marquis and be addressed as Lord Marquis. The arrival of the imperial decree naming him Heir firmly solidified Song Yanqing’s status. To celebrate this, Yun Feiwan hosted a banquet.
On the day of the banquet, Yun Jingzhou was the first to arrive, standing at the gates to help Song Yanqing welcome the guests. The Eldest Princess did not attend, but the young princess sent a gift, which Yun Feiwan received personally. Xu Ningzhi arrived with Madam Wen, accompanied by the daughters of the Xu family, including her own daughter, Xiao Yueli, while Madam Wen brought Yun Qianqian.
