In this chapter, we learn that the daylily is the daughter of a man named Long Aotian, who was banished from his family by his grandfather, the founder of the Ming dynasty. The daylily tries to scare the man away from her, but the man is not interested in her. The man tells her that he was banished because he did not want to be associated with the Ming family, and that he had come to claim to be the rightful heir to her family's throne. The woman, however, does not believe him, and she tells the man that he is not welcome in her household. The two men argue, and the man finally leaves.
