This chapter's epigraph comes from a conversation between zhuo and his son yunhai, in which the two men discuss the possibility of turning their families into one. The two men agree that it's time for their families to get married, and yunhua says he'll take his father as his father from now on. Worried that the two families are going to be joined by marriage, the two digu men wonder aloud if they're actually going to marry. They're surprised that the digu commander didn't notice that they were thinking of the same thing. .
