Episode 8 recap: Li Chuan and Qin Zhen Zhen met for the first time.
Ultimately, Li Chuan still went to see the critically ill Qin Zhen Zhen, and with Li Chuan's company, Qin Zhen Zhen's condition improved. Their relationship was already quite good, but the year after Qin Zhen Zhen gave birth to a child, she passed away. From then on, Li Chuan's temperament changed drastically, and he refused to eat or drink, unable to accept this fact. Li Chuan even wanted to have Qin Zhen Zhen buried in the imperial mausoleum.
This lifetime, to prevent the tragedy from happening again, the best plan is to not let Qin Zhen Zhen have the opportunity to enter the palace. Now they have a cooperative relationship, and teacher Pei Wen Xuan will always listen to Li Rong's arrangements. Pei Wen Xuan curiously asked Li Rong how he viewed her in the past. At first, Li Rong said he actually liked Pei Wen Xuan very much, but later he put all his energy into Qin Zhen Zhen, and the two gradually drifted apart.
Pei Wen Xuan also said that she actually didn't dislike Li Rong back then, and if he had confessed his feelings, she might have agreed. But their relationship became entangled with too many vested interests, making it less pure. Li Rong didn't care about anyone's admiration for her. Being in the royal family, she had too many things to choose from, and feelings were the least important.
After seeing the memorial submitted by the Yang family, the Emperor became very angry. Originally inquiring about the Crown Prince, the others answered eloquently, but the Emperor was furious and scolded them. Li Chuan is preparing to go on a military expedition to earn merit quickly. The first thing he did was come to the residence of the young master Qin, as he will be departing tomorrow and hopes to get Qin family's assistance.
Before leaving, Qin Zhen Zhen gave him her sword, hoping he would return successfully. The two fell in love at first sight, and although they never expressed their feelings, this is still a good outcome.
Li Rong was still practicing boxing to keep fit, when Li Chuan came to inform his sister that he would be going to battle. This time, he would not reveal his identity. His most important mission is to find the account books of the Yang family. Before leaving, Li Chuan hugged his sister, and Li Rong told her brother not to worry and hoped he would return safely.
As Li Chuan was about to go to the battlefield, he gave Qin Zhen Zhen a firefly lamp he made himself, and Qin Zhen Zhen said she would wait for his return. Recently, Su Rong Qing has been very saddened by the affairs involving Li Rong, and Ning Fei is still searching for the Sixth Lord everywhere. Ning Fei felt that the Emperor was determined to eradicate the Yang family, and their situation was becoming increasingly dangerous.
Li Chuan's first battle could be considered a complete victory. Though Li Rong was in prison, there were still people who would promptly inform her of the situation. When the Emperor learned of the Crown Prince's great victory, he was very pleased. Li Chuan quickly obtained evidence of the Yang family's collusion with the enemy, leaving them without a defense.
Li Rong, feeling bored, called Pei Wen Xuan to wake him up from his sleep. Soon, Pei Wen Xuan and Li Rong were both released, and Pei Wen Xuan still advised Li Rong to stay away from Su Rong Qing.
Now the truth has been revealed, Pei Wen Xuan and Li Rong have been rewarded, and the crimes of the Yang family have been confirmed. Ning Fei had nothing to say, as the evidence was overwhelming, leaving the Yang family no opportunity to refute. Knowing she would die, Ning Fei laughed and told everyone that the Yang family's today would be their own future. The furious Emperor had her dragged away. Ning Fei originally wanted to kill Li Rong, but Pei Wen Xuan shielded Li Rong, and Ning Fei was ultimately killed. To preserve Ning Fei's dignity, Li Rong covered her body with her own cloak.
Seeing his daughter die before his eyes, Yang's father was emotionally distraught and confessed to all his crimes.
