[The Jin leader is still young but it's clear he's trying. Mingjue is honestly impressed as he lets him work things out. More impressed by the question he's then asked.
And so, he's honest with him. Partially because that's his nature and partially because he feels the young man has more than earned that from him.]
What Huaisang did was personal and not something I acknowledge as being an action of the the Nie clan. When his contract with Huaisang ended I put stipulations into our contract to ensure that Meng Yao would always have the freedom to be who he wished to be. It is my decision that he has been punished enough and it is time for all of us to heal.
Meng Yao...Jin Guangyao...is a member of the noble Lanling Jin Sect. If it is what you will allow then he should wear the vermillion mark always and wear the colors of your sect in order to honor your clan. He is not Nie though I will use my clan to protect and care for him if you will permit it to do so.
[And then he cups his hands before him and bows to Jin Ling.]
Jin Ling. I humbly ask for your permission to marry your uncle. He will be cared for and given the chance to have the redemption that was stolen from him by Nie Huaisang. He will be loved and he will be cherished which was stolen from him by Jin Guangshan. He will finally be allowed to live in happiness and that will be my goal in life as Nie Mingjue.
[With that, he falls silent, holding the bow and keeping his head lowered.]
