Episode 11 recap: Yan Nanxing opened a shop.
Bao Fu Ren came to visit Yan Nanxing and said that this was a big move by Yan Nanxing. Yan Nanxing introduced the items in the shop, saying that they were all natural Chinese herbal beauty creams. Yan Nanxing wrote a letter inviting Jiang Xinbai, knowing that Jiang Xinbai had a keen sense of smell, so the rouge they used was the same as the ones used by the other ladies.
Bao Fu Ren came to visit Yan Nanxing and said that this was a big move. The advertising here had attracted a lot of customers, and many ladies were gathered around Yan Nanxing. Bao Fu Ren urged everyone to quickly buy shop tickets from Yan Nanxing, but Yan Nanxing said they did not sell tickets, and would instead give everyone discounts.
Yan Nanxing introduced the items in the shop, saying they were all natural Chinese herbal beauty creams, and carefully explained the medicinal effects of each one. Everyone thought they sounded quite good, and many people bought the herbal creams from Yan Nanxing. Yan Nanxing thought it wasn't good that his handbook was still with Jiang Xinbai, so he quietly went to Jiang Xinbai's house in night attire to retrieve it, but was discovered by Jiang Xinbai. They fought, but Jiang Xinbai did not unmask Yan Nanxing, and Yan Nanxing quickly fled.
Yan Nanxing felt that Jiang Xinbai did not unmask him because even if she did, she would not recognize him, as Jiang Xinbai was truly faceblind. Yan Nanxing asked Bao Fu Ren about the places the Gold Lock Guard frequented, and Bao Fu Ren said they often went to the Twelve Flower Pavilion. Yan Nanxing wrote a letter inviting Jiang Xinbai to meet at the Twelve Flower Pavilion.
At the Twelve Flower Pavilion, Yan Nanxing found a woman and paid her to replace him in the performance. The woman was surprised, as they were performing to earn money, not expecting someone to pay them for the opportunity. Yan Nanxing met a woman there who he recognized as the one dancing at the ghost market. She said the clothes she wore were from the border region, and that Merchant Bielie had made her wear them and dance behind the curtain.
Yan Nanxing recalled that the Southern General had said he fell in love with the General's wife due to her praying posture, and realized that Merchant Bielie must have loved the General's wife.
Jiang Xin Bai arrived here and immediately recognized Yan Nan Xing. Yan Nan Xing thought that Jiang Xin Bai had a good sense of smell, so she used the same rouge as the other ladies, but Jiang Xin Bai was still able to recognize her.
Jiang Xin Bai asked Yan Nan Xing why she called him over, and Yan Nan Xing brought up the issue of the handbook, asking Jiang Xin Bai to return it to her. Jiang Xin Bai said he could return it, but he didn't bring such an important item with him. Jiang Xin Bai told Yan Nan Xing to come back tomorrow to get it, but Yan Nan Xing was unwilling, worried that Jiang Xin Bai might lock her up and cause her trouble.
Jiang Xin Bai said he would send it to Hua Xiang Rong, but Yan Nan Xing didn't want that either, feeling that it wouldn't be good for her business if people saw Jiang Xin Bai coming to her. Jiang Xin Bai smelled the scent of moxa on the woman who had arrived, and Yan Nan Xing felt this person didn't seem to be someone who used moxa. Jiang Xin Bai thought there might be a room upstairs that contained this item, so he went up to check, and sure enough found it there, realizing they were using this covert method to transport moxa.
Shang Bie Li also arrived here and got into an argument with Jiang Xin Bai. Yan Nan Xing saw this and quickly stepped in to mediate between the two, pulling Jiang Xin Bai away, telling the two not to argue. When Jiang Shu Lv went out, Liu Ruo Qian climbed a tree to catch a cat, accidentally falling and landing on Jiang Shu Lv's carriage. Liu Ruo Qian had met Jiang Shu Lv once before at the ghost market, and had given Jiang Shu Lv a flower, hoping he would have good luck.
When Liu Ruo Qian returned home, his family did not support him continuing his studies, but he wanted to break free from his slave status. Jiang Xin Bai came to look for Yan Nan Xing, and Liu Ruo Qian also came, wanting to work for Yan Nan Xing. Yan Nan Xing needed to hire people, so she posted a notice at the shop door, and Liu Ruo Qian came.
