Hua Yi just knew that Hua Zhi was coming, so he didn't even put on more clothes and sat in the yard waiting until Hua Zhi flew into his arms. He was very happy that Hua Zhi learned to cry and asked about Lin Wan's At that time, Huazhi didn't speak. Hua Yizheng saw Lin Wan's hairpin on Huazhi's head at a glance, and understood everything at once. Knowing that everything was fine at home, the Hua family brothers were relieved. Hua Yizheng told Hua Zhi that since coming to the North, he has been questioning whether he did something wrong, what is more important, country and family, king and relatives. Hua Zhi deeply agreed with Hua Yizheng's approach and frankly expressed her intention to redeem him. Hua Yizheng said that he was having a good time with his children now, and he also started writing a new book manuscript, but Bai Yu was still young, so Hua Yizheng asked Hua Zhi to take Bai Yu back. Huazhi found Bai Yu, and Bai Yu also rejected her. After Hua Pingyan, the third master of the Hua family, learned about it, he took the initiative to tell Huazhi that he wanted to leave Beidi, but Huazhi did not agree.
Gu Yanxi revealed his identity as the envoy to Wu Yong and asked him to explain his collaboration with the enemy. Wu Yong swore to heaven that he had nothing to do with the Zhaoguo spies. Huazhi had a nightmare and dreamed that Hua Yi was missing behind her. When she woke up, she found Gu Yanxi sitting beside her bed. Huazhi distributed the extra things to the people of Sanbaicheng. The government officials were very grateful for the medicine packs that Huazhi brought, so they exempted Hua Yizheng from doing hard work this year. Hua Pingyang gave Hua Zhi dried apricots and named her daughter Yuan'er.
Hua Pingyang asked Hua Zhi about her relationship. Hua Zhi said that the situation was very different and they might not stay together. While they were working, Hua Pingyang and two others were taken to the General's Mansion for questioning. After Gu Yanxi learned that the visitor was Hua Zhi's fourth uncle, she peeked her head out from behind the curtain and glanced at Hua Pingyang a few more times. Although she was separated by a mask, Hua Pingyang looked at Hua Pingyang. Pingyang immediately realized that the person in Huazhi's mouth who was in a very different situation and might not necessarily stay with him was the Chief of Qisu Division. After returning home, Hua Pingyang asked Huazhi, and Huazhi did not deny it. She told her fourth uncle seriously that even if they were separated in the future because of their identities, she never thought of escaping. Gu Yanxi heard everything outside the door. After Hua Pingyang left, Gu Yanxi entered the room and hugged Hua Zhi.
Gu Yanxi asked Wu Yong for advice on how to marry a girl. Wu Yong told him about the importance of the right time, place, and people, and explained it to him one by one. Gu Yanxi listened. After checking Zhaoguo's secret letter for a long time, Wu Yong could not find any clues. Gu Yanxi analyzed that the secret letter might be a cover-up, perhaps to lure the tiger away from the mountain.
Hua Yi was personally sending Hua Zhi out of Sanbai City. When leaving, Hua Yi was putting an amulet in her hand. Although he didn't believe in ghosts and gods, he still let Hua Zhi hold it well. After leaving the city, Hua Zhi and Gu Yanxi met up. Gu Yanxi speculated that something might have happened to the emperor. On the way back, the assassins noticed something, so they killed Niu Heng's group and then disguised themselves and lurked near the valley to intercept Hua Zhi and the others. After Huazhi gave the money, the assassin asked the women and children to leave first, while the men stayed.
As soon as Huazhi left, the assassin issued a killing order. Gu Yanxi was good at martial arts and became the target of the assassin, so they attacked in groups. Fortunately, Chen Qing and Li Hou cooperated with each other. After several battles, the assassin guessed Gu Yanxi's identity, and Gu Yanxi also understood that these people were all here for him. The bodyguard who escaped from the valley told Huazhi and the others to leave quickly. When Huazhi heard that Gu Yanxi was in danger, she hurried back.
