The escorting general, Zhang was riding on the horse toward a group of children running on the street and singing the nursery rhyme "Under the bamboo, Fu Tianhuang, marry the Fu girl, and becomes the emperor". The carriage stopped in the middle of the road. Inside were two Fu sisters. General Zhang dismounted, and gave them some money to the kids care taker/mom asked her to stop the children from singing the nursery rhyme. Fu Jinzhan, the second daughter of the Fu family, comforted her older sister, and said it was not that whoever married the daughter of the Fu family could really be an emperor, and the family of Fu was not the only one in the world. Fu Yuzhan told his sister that apart from King Wei in the capital, no one would dare to speak the Fu surname in this world. As for the contents of this nursery rhyme, those who are willing to believe will think it is true, and those who do not want to believe it will be false.
Today is the day when the eldest princess invites the Jingguan’s family members to enjoy the flowers in the Imperial Garden. Fu Yuzhan warns her sister not to play mischievously, not to fight against the Imperial Guards, and not to use weapons in the house. The older sister continue to warned her that she she was afraid that her little sister might not know when to restrain herself and get a huge problem.
Prince Xue Rong, went into the royal hall to meet with the king of the Jin Dynasty of Lingyang, his father Wang Xue Wei. Xue Wei asked if he had received Peng Ze’s envoy. Xue Rong said that Peng Ze had only sent a small envoy and had no sincerity for talks. He believed that there was no need to send Hongyou. Si Qing asked his ministers to greet him. Then, Xue Wei asked him what he thought of the nursery rhyme circulating among the people.
For the past six months, there has been a nursery rhyme "marry talisman, be an emperor" in the capital. Xue Rong thinks that this rumor may be nonsense among the people, or it may be spread in secret with the intention of causing trouble. If it is the latter, he should find out who is behind it as soon as possible. The emperor said that it is crazy, only he can decide the inheritance of Lingyang's throne.
Fu Jinzhan met Peng Ze’s envoy He Zhengwen (Wen wen) who was bullying Xue’s soldiers on the road. The bully was framing the poor soldier of stealing his ring him, the soldier said he never stole his ring. The bully pushed the soldier to the ground. Then he had his two guards kicked the soldier non-stop while he was laying on the ground.. The maid stepped forward and told the bully that she found his ring on the ground, but He Wenwen still refused and claimed that the maid was teaming up with that Xue soldier. Fu Jin couldn't stand it anymore and she step in to help by tossing a coin at the bully. She ran up toward Wen wen and kicked and beat him up in front of everyone -saying he stole her money. She warned Wenwen never to steal things again or else she will give him a good beating again. He Wenwen was very angry and shouted that the Lingyang Emperor would punish her.
The eldest princess, Fuqing adopted prince Xue Rong, but she always looked down on him, and said some very harsh things to him when he crossed her path.
Fu Jinzhan and Fu Yuzhan were invited to participate in the banquet of Princess Fuqing. Jinzhan asked her little sister if she took her warning as none scene, since Yushan said she lost her way that was why she showed up late. Her little sister deny it and said she is being good.
The envoy Peng Ze met with emperor/ Lord Lingyang and pointed out that someone had beaten him and humiliated him in public, and demand they find that person and punish him/her.
Xue Wei sent Li Fang to the inner city to check and took Fu Jinzhan to the temple. Lingyangwei Wang Fu Yan believed that it was his own daughter. He was shocked and pleaded with the emperor to punish him instead of his daughter. Fu Jinzhan told her the truth about the beating, and the envoys falsely accused her. The emperor had the guard take her out to be punished. Her older sister came in to plead for her little sister. She bought the soldier that was bullied. Wenwen refused to listen, but Prince Xue Rong stepped and said they should hear the truth. After listening to the statements of the soldiers involved, Fu Yuzhan stated that even as an emperor, if he commits a crime he too shall be punished as a commoner. The envoy of Peng Ze had to abide by the laws of Lingyang when he reached the boundary of Lingyang. How could he behave and lose Peng Ze’s face. The emperor decided to waive Fu Jinzhan’s punishment.
King Wei told Xue Wei that He Wenwen went straight to Fu’s house after leaving the palace to propose marriage for King Peng Zecheng. Xue Wei understood that He Zhengwen had another owner, and he was on the order of King Peng to negotiate the return of the top three cities, and secretly proposed marriage for Cheng Wang. Xue Rong said that the envoy of Peng Ze was arrogant and idiotic, and he was willing to send troops to Peng Ze.
Xue Wei felt that since the king, Liu Chengfu, was responsible for guarding the border between Lingyang and Pengze, he was deceived by the rumors of the Empress Fu, so he simply promised the Fu family’s beloved daughter to be married to him. Xue Rong was to take advantage of the opportunity to assassinate Liu Chengfu, the Lingyang army can take advantage of the chaos to control Jincheng. Jincheng is a border fortress. If you seize Jincheng, you can exchange the top three cities with Pengze, and you can also keep Jincheng. The initiative is on Lingyang's side. , Xue Wei asked Xue Rong to lead soldiers to assist Fu Yanxin's daughter, and Liu Chengfu was removed.
Princess Shou'an returned to the palace, and the eldest princess and Li Huaijin, the commander of the imperial army, came together to greet the lord. The eldest princess felt that Xue Rong was a wild species and did not have their same royal blood of the Xue family, so she targeted him with harsh words all the time.
Fu Yanxin informed the two daughters of the assassination of Liu Chengfu with his pro-law. Fu Yuzhan decided to go and complete the task by himself, occupying Jincheng as the leader and assassinating the second. Although Fu Jinzhan had martial arts, he was impatient and easy to be detected, leading to failure. Desperate to go, Yuzhan had to let the two of them compete. The person who can take Xue Rong’s sachet could participate in the task. In the end, Fu Yuzhan with her smart wits -won and went to complete the marriage together with Xue Rong.
But King Jin hesitated very much in his heart. The lord secretly asked him to kill Liu Chengfu, and kill Fu Yuzhan, because the nursery rhyme of Empress Fu has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. The lord said a woman who is too smart is not suitable for being a queen. After killing her, Marry Fu Jinzhan, then Xue Rong will be the future king of Lingyang.
The princess asked the maid that Fu Yuzhan could not reach Jincheng. She told her made to prevent this, because she didn't want Xue Rong to take the throne.
The second daughter of Fu Jinzhan secretly put the medicine in the Fu Yuzhan cup, which knocked her out cold, and went to the sedan chair. This is the crime of deceiving the emperor, and Yuzhan immediately went to the wedding team to switch out with her little sister. Jinzhan got off the sedan chair to rest halfway, and was knocked out by a strange man.
