In 2014, Zhang Chulan was admitted to the Department of Architecture at Nankai University. Although Wu Erbai was pleased, he felt somewhat disappointed that Zhang Chulan had not chosen a university in the Jiangsu-Zhejiang region.
In 2015, Zhang Chulan turned twenty. According to Wu family tradition, Wu Yiqiong should have presided over his coming-of-age capping ceremony. However, because his parents were absent, Wu Yiqiong chose not to overstep his bounds, merely asking Old Mrs. Wu to grant him the courtesy name Honglin. The capping ceremony itself was postponed until Zhang Qiling and his wife returned from the Bronze Gate.
On this day, Zhang Chulan suddenly received a call from Ejing, stating that the grave of Old Master Zhang Xilin had been excavated and robbed. Zhang Chulan promptly requested leave and hurried to Shihu Mountain.
