Qiu Mengnan asked He Zifeng what Jin Waner meant for giving her the bracelet. He Zifeng was straight-hearted, and he naturally didn't understand what Jin Waner meant. Liu Yong asked He Zifeng to go to Linqingzhou to retrieve Qin Lang, but he was unwilling to go. Liu Yong was very good at scheming and sent Qiu Meng to the south. He Zifeng was worried that her girl would be unsafe to go to Linqingzhou, so he promised to find Qin Lang. Liu Yong accidentally saw Qiu Mengnan holding Jin Wan'er's bracelet, and he asked about this bracelet unintentionally. Jin Wan'er generously admitted that she gave it to Qiu Mengnan and thanked her for saving Liu Yong's life. Jin Wan'er proposed to find a good family for Qiu Mengnan in Dongchang Mansion, and then she helped Liu Yong find other capable people to help him.
Liu Yong listened to her and guessed that she wanted Qiu Mengnan to leave, but he couldn't say anything against it. Qiu Mengnan asked Qicai again, why Jin Wan'er gave her this pair of bracelets, Qicai did not say clearly. Qiu Mengnan is a kind girl. She and Liu Yong proposed that they want to go back to Dongchang Mansion and returned the bracelet to him. Yuan Changchun drove away all the refugees in the city, creating the illusion that the people of Linqingzhou lived and worked in peace and contentment. An Xiaohai came back, An Sihai mourned his misfortune, and was angry with him. An Xiaohai said that he secretly took out the account book, and if Li Erdo refused to help them, then he would take the account book out. An Sihai was furious, and the account book matter was not trivial. He learned that An Xiaohai hadn't told Li Erdo about the account book. He decided to ask An Xiaohai to give him the account book, and then someone would take An Xiaohai away and hide without showing up.
Liu Yong asked Liu Xier how she felt about the girl Qiu Mengnan. Liu Xier naturally thought Qiu Mengnan was very good, and Liu Yong asked him again, what if someone asked Qiu Mengnan to go. Liu Xier said that if Jin Wan'er let Qiu Mengnan leave, Liu Xier suggested that Liu Yong listen to Jin Wan'er. Upon hearing this, Liu Yong became angry immediately. He asked Liu Xier to bring Qiu Mengnan back to Dongchang Mansion and settle down well, so he stayed in Dongchang Mansion and didn't need to come again. Liu Xier knew that she had said something wrong, so she changed her words and asked Qiu Mengnan to stay. He Zifeng went to meet Qin Lang and took him back to see Liu Yong.
Qiu Mengnan was about to return to Dongchang Mansion, but Jin Wan'er didn't try to stay. Liu Yong and Liu Xi'er had colluded long ago. When the two sang a match, Qi Cai also interjected that Liu Yong lacked a female helper, and Jin Wan'er was ready to speak. When He Zifeng returned with Qin Lang and learned that Qiu Mengnan was leaving, He Zifeng immediately spoke out against it. Later, Jin Wan'er said something and gave the bracelet to Qiu Mengnan again. She said her own words but didn't mean to let Qiu Mengnan leave. Liu Yong suddenly realized that Jin Wan'er didn't want to drive Qiu Mengnan away. Everyone breathed a sigh of relief and smiled.
Qin Lang told Liu Yong about the results of the investigation in Linqing Prefecture that they guessed that Leardo might have deliberately released Xiang Wu and then framed Qin Lang for robbery. Liu Yong believes that Richang Silver’s ledger must be in An Xiaohai's hands. Finding An Xiaohai is equivalent to finding the ledger, and everything is easy to handle. The next day Liu Yong was going to take Liu Xi'er into Linqingzhou City, and Jin Wan'er also wanted to go with him. Liu Yong disagreed, worried that this trip would be dangerous. In the end, Jin Waner was persuaded that she understood the righteousness and let Liu Xier and Qiu Mengnan follow Liu Yong into Linqing Prefecture.
Soon after, they entered the city and found no refugees. After careful inspection, Liu Yong found that the vegetable farmers and meat sellers on the street were not in line with the nature of such people, so he concluded that this group of people was called by Li Erdo to act. While talking, someone shouted to open the warehouse to release grain, and Liu Yong and the three went to check. The performance of the people who opened the warehouse and put the grain was not good, and the audit of the grain was too strict, which made Liu Yong see that something was wrong.
