Qi Yiyang's biological father was not the heir to the public administration house.
He was the second son of the royal family.
He also became an official after sitting for the imperial examinations. He was now a third-rank left assistant minister in the Ministry of Rites.

"Aren't you not on good terms with those dandies? Why are you hanging out with them?"
