If Jia Yi and Yongchang were to clash head-on, the sage would still favor the latter.
Jia Yi was nothing more than a knife in the hands of a sage, a vicious dog he used to attack powerful families.
Yongchang, on the other hand, was the sage's own sister.
The siblings have shared a bond of thirty or forty years; they are as close as blood relatives.
