Foreword

Compared to his two older brothers, His Royal Highness the Third Prince Liansong was a lot more humbler. His refusal to compete with his second brother for meaningless fame made him less influential in the eyes of the immortals in the Sky Kingdom. Unlike his elder brothers, he had been born underwater, and the auspicious omen that hence followed his birth had been different from that of his elder brothers. Instead of birds flying in the air, fishes were swimming in the water around him. Also, the immense flood which had been the cause of Hao De's headache those days had suddenly subsided following Liansong's birth.

Meanwhile at the Ten Miles of Peach Blossom, Bai Zhen and Zhe Yan lifted their heads as a feminine figure gracefully approached them, interrupting their game of 'go' momentarily.

Fengjiu expressed to her uncle and Zhe Yan how she had missed the peach blossom orchard, as she accepted a jar of wine readily. 

"Xiao Jiu, it won't be long before your aunt becomes the Sky Queen (Tianhou). No matter how busy you are, you have to go to the Sky Kingdom."

Fengjiu pulled a long face. "But Uncle, the Sky Kingdom reminds me of him. Those days when I was with him, there. And..."

Bai Zhen patted her gently on her back. "Aren't you dressed in this manner to remind yourself of your days with him?" he pointed to her pale pink dress and her braided locks. "My dear niece, what is deemed to happen, will happen. And it has. What you need to face, has to be faced. Be strong. We are here for you."
