Episode 27 recap: Jianxin Bai has left.

The Emperor wants Jianxin Bai to return to the Grand Supervisor's Office, but Jianxin Bai wants to refuse. Yan Nanxing is very surprised, as she didn't expect Jianxin Bai to want a divorce just two days after their marriage. Jianxin Bai is unable to let go of these matters and wants to continue investigating, but does not want to implicate Yan Nanxing, so he decides to divorce her. Yan Nanxing is surprised to discover that her mother has arrived.

The Emperor wants Jianxin Bai to return to the Grand Supervisor's Office, but Jianxin Bai wants to refuse. The Emperor is surprised and asks Jianxin Bai what he's thinking. Jianxin Bai states that based on the current events, Lu shouldn't be the mastermind behind everything, even though he is already dead. Jianxin Bai wants to go to Dingzhou to investigate further, as he believes he may uncover more information there.

The Emperor agrees to let Jianxin Bai go, but suggests he should not go directly to Dingzhou, as that may alert the culprit. Instead, the Emperor assigns Jianxin Bai to inspect the southwest region. Jianxin Bai agrees. After their conversation, Shanbie Li comes out and asks Jianxin Bai what's going on, as Dingzhou is so dangerous and his own brother has already been killed there. Jianxin Bai tells Shanbie Li that he must go, and asks him to take care of Yan Nanxing and himself.

Jianxin Bai returns home, where his mother is angrily questioning why he must go. Jianxin Bai explains to his mother that this is the reason his father died, and he must get to the bottom of it. Jianxin Bai's maternal grandfather and Yan Qingyun both agree with him, further upsetting his mother.

Jianxin Bai meets with Jiangsuolv, telling him to take good care of their family. Jianxin Bai notices that Jiangsuolv doesn't even have a maidservant. Jiangsuolv says that Jianxin Bai also doesn't have anyone attending to him, and that Jiangsuolv wants to learn from Jianxin Bai's humble demeanor when interacting with others, rather than the airs of a prince.

Jianxin Bai feels that the battle between them has now come to an end.

Jiang Suo Luo said that he had previously still wanted to fight with Jiang Xin Bai, but now he has thought it through and realized that as an outsider who is also feared by the Emperor, this position is completely useless to him. Jiang Suo Luo said he wants to become a woman, and the only position that can protect the people he wants to protect is one that is second to none.

Jiang Xin Bai told Jiang Suo Luo that if he wants to continue down this path, he will have to be evasive and deceptive, perhaps he will find that this is not the road he wants to take. Jiang Suo Luo said he has already made up his mind and has already set out. Jiang Xin Bai assured Jiang Suo Luo that when he returns, he will find an opportunity to release him from the marriage contract.

Jiang Xin Bai returned home and presented the divorce paperwork to Yan Nan Xing. Yan Nan Xing was very surprised, not expecting Jiang Xin Bai to want a divorce just two days after their marriage. Jiang Xin Bai said he had prepared this divorce paperwork even before the marriage, as his purpose this time was not simple, and he hoped this identity could provide protection for Yan Nan Xing, so that if Yan Nan Xing ended up being implicated, he could use this divorce paperwork.

Jiang Xin Bai could not let go of these matters and wanted to continue investigating, but did not want to implicate Yan Nan Xing, so he divorced him. Yan Nan Xing wanted to go with Jiang Xin Bai, but Jiang Xin Bai did not agree, feeling it was dangerous, and there were still issues in the capital, so he hoped Yan Nan Xing could keep an eye on things here, and Yan Nan Xing could only agree.

Tong Sai Er picked some wild vegetables on the mountain and made them for Shang Bie Li to eat. Although Shang Bie Li felt they didn't taste good, he still ate them. Liu Ruo Qian was left guarding the store, as Yan Nan Xing and Tong Sai Er were not there. Liu Ruo Qian returned home to find his father had been injured at work, and could not complete the orders, so had to refund the money and pay compensation. Liu Ruo Qian could only go out to find a job, and found one that pays well but has had many people go missing when going there at dusk, but he still took the job.

Liu Ruo Qian went to the house and thoroughly cleaned it, not realizing it was Jiang Suo Luo's home, and Jiang Suo Luo thought the person he hired was a maid.
