Ji Shanfang nodded slowly.
"A good deed bears a good connection, and this is a good connection," Li Sixun said.
"Then I will go to the Imperial Palace to find him," Ji Shanfang urged.
"My child, if it really is him and you manage an audience with the Emperor, remember that he is now the sovereign. You must understand the distinction between ruler and subject, and you must never address him as a sworn brother as you did in the past."
Li Sixun nodded.
"Mother, I know."

In the Imperial Study, Ding Wei was diligently reviewing and marking memorial memorials.
Growing weary from the task, he raised his head and stretched.
Glancing at a painting on the wall, he noticed the seal belonged none other than Li Sixun.
Recalling the carefree and joyous days he had spent with Li Sixun, and considering the palace's need for artists, Ding Wei formed the intention of summoning Li Sixun to serve as a court painter.
With this in mind, Ding Wei decided to sound out Jiang Keyan, who was herself a master painter.
Ding Wei said to Eunuch De, who stood nearby: "Have Imperial Consort Jiang brought to me."
Eunuch De bowed and replied: "This servant will fetch her immediately."
