Apparently, word had already spread from the imperial palace that the Emperor was going to confer the title of Ning Wang on the eldest prince and appoint Zheng Siye as the Libationer of the Guozijian.
Zheng Siye even had a proper ceremonial attire tailored and arranged for a banquet. He had even prepared the invitations, all ready to be distributed after the morning court session.
But who would have thought that halfway through, the previous Libationer wrote a letter to the Emperor saying he had returned to the capital.
The Emperor got restless on hearing this. If the old Libationer is back, what is the need for a new one? The Emperor just dropped the matter there and then, turning Zheng Siye green with anger.
