Jiang Shao told Chai Zhenzhen to bring her words to Jinzhan, so that she should not go to Xue Rong to steal wooden signs on the impulse. Xue Rong recalled the days when he met Jiang Shao. He told Yuzhan that he decided to return the wooden sign to Jiang Shao and let Yuzhan go back to rest. The remaining poison in his body was still unclear. Chai Zhenzhen came to tell Jinzhan what Jiang Shao said, it was better to listen to Jiang Shao's words, but Jinzhan insisted on stealing the wooden sign, saying that Xue Rong had too many things to consider besides brotherhood, and told Chai Zhen Zhen's own arrangement. A general came to see Xue Rong and told Xue Rong that he saw Jiang Shao and Chai Zhenzhen in a close conversation, and heard Jiang Shao say something about stealing wooden signs, and then Chai Zhenzhen went to Lenggong. Xue Rong thought that Jiang Shao instructed Jinzhan to steal the wooden sign, which was really ironic. Chai Zhenzhen came to visit Xue Rong with things. Xue Rong deliberately took out the wooden sign and put it on the table. Chai Zhenzhen went back and reported to Jinzhan that the wooden sign was on the table in Funing Palace. With the help of Li Huaijin and Chai Zhenzhen, Jinzhan successfully got the wooden sign. Xue Rong played chess with Yuzhan and Chai Zhenzhen. At this time, Guo Fulai reported that the jade card had been stolen, and Xue Rong immediately ordered the hunt for the former queen Fu Jinzhan in the palace. Then Xue Rong questioned Chai Zhenzhen and their plan. Chai Zhenzhen said that Jiang Shao did not instruct them to do it. Instead, Jiang Shao persuaded them not to steal the wooden signs. It was himself and Jinzhan who made their own decisions. Meet at the palace gate in the northeast corner. Xue Rong took the people to the agreed place. He told the soldiers to retreat and deliberately told Jinzhan that everything Jiang Shao had given him was given by himself. However, he disregarded his brotherhood and did such a sneaky thing. Chai Zhenzhen handed the wooden plaque to Jiang Shao, saying that Xue Rong's intention was to return the wooden plaque to him, but he and Jinzhan were self-defeating.

At the court, the ministers said that after verification, Jiang Shao's wooden sign could prove his prince identity, and asked Xue Rong to make Jiang Shao king. Xue Rong said that Jiang Shao would be named the king of the county, but the ministers said that the first emperor's own son should be named the prince. Xue Rong said that he would be named the prince and the title of King Ping. The ministers had to make an inch of it, saying that the flat character was not enough to show dignity, and asked Jiang Shao to be the King of Qin second only to King Jin, and Xue Rong had to agree. Xue Rong held a grand ceremony for Jiang Shao to confer the king. The two passed by in the hall. Jiang Shao looked at Xue Rong, who was expressionless, and sighed. After the ceremony, Jiang Shao caught up with Xue Rong and stopped Xue Rong, thanking him for giving him a wooden sign and making him king, saying that he would go through fire and water if something happens in the future. Jiang Shao still wanted to explain to Xue Rong, but Xue Rong interrupted him and said that he didn't need it, so he was at ease. When Wei Wang met Jiang Shao, he warned him not to overrule personal emotions over court etiquette. Then, Wang Wei told Jiang Shao that after nearly half a year of investigation, he found that Li Huaijin was very suspected of framed and killed Jiang Shao's mother. Jiang Shao couldn't figure out why Li Huaijin did this. Wei Wang said that Li Huaijin was doing this for marigolds. He and her childhood sweethearts, and the people in the Fu family knew his thoughts on marigolds. After Jiang Shao went back, he met Li Huaijin. They were sitting in the courtyard. Jiang Shao told Li Huaijin a story to test him. Li Huaijin said that nothing is impossible, and nothing is beyond reason. Li Huaijin invited the ministers to dinner and thanked them for speaking to their cousin Jiang Shao in the court. Then Li Huaijin fought for Jiang Shao and said that he didn't even have the Qin Palace, which caused the ministers to be dissatisfied with Xue Rong.
