Jiang Ci pretended to be drunk and threw the vase into the river, making people mistakenly think that she jumped into the river to escape. She hid under the bed and escaped from Lanyue Tower in the dark. As soon as she went out, she was caught by Wei Zhao, who pulled out a dagger. Jiang Ci begged Wei Zhao to let her go, and swore not to reveal Wei Zhao as the killer of Teng Rui in front of Pei Yan. Wei Zhao was dubious, so he hung her from a tree and tortured her.
Pei Yan had long discovered that Jiang Ci was hiding under the bed, but he did not reveal it to his face. He wanted to use Jiang Ci as a bait to lure the assassin out. Pei Yan saw Jiang Ci being kidnapped by the silver-faced man from a distance, but could not hear them clearly because of the distance. During the conversation, Pei Yan quietly sent someone to the post house where the Weiguo envoy lived to ask for reinforcements. Jiang Ci knew that Wei Zhao would not let her go.

Wei Zhao didn't want to fight, so he fought and retreated, and quickly escaped from Pei Yan's pursuit. Pei Yan helped Jiang Ci bandage his wounds with his own hands. Jiang Ci was worried that Wei Zhao would seek revenge on her again, so he offered to take refuge in the Hou Mansion again, and Pei Yan wholeheartedly agreed. The more Jiang Ci thought about it, the more something was wrong. The silver-faced man could have killed her as soon as they met, so there was no need to hang her up and force her to do anything, and even asked her to write a suicide note.
Pei Yan suddenly realized that the situation was not good. When Prince Xie Chi came to Lanyue Tower to listen to music, he casually mentioned that King Zhuang Xie Yu accompanied Teng Rui to the Yugong Temple. He suspected that the silver-faced assassin was dragging him away with a plan to lure the tiger away from the mountain. The real target was Teng Rui and Pei Yan did not dare to delay, and immediately led Jiang Ci to rush to the Yugong Temple. As Pei Yan expected, Wei Zhao deliberately stepped forward to kidnap Jiang Ci in order to assassinate Teng Rui. After he escaped successfully, he rushed to Yugong Temple and intercepted and killed Teng Rui on the way. Pei Yan and his people came to the rescue in time, and Wei Zhao had to lead his tribe to evacuate. Jiang Ci accidentally fell off the horse, and Pei Yan rescued her back to the Hou Mansion, but he didn't understand why the dark-faced assassin wanted to assassinate Teng Rui.

The Dacheng Kingdom sent Zhenyuan General Lu Yu to lead troops to conquer Yueluo City. Xiao Haitian, the lord of Yueluo City, repeatedly explained that he did not collude with the Wei people to assassinate Qi. Wang, Lu Yu didn't listen at all, so Xiao Haitian had no choice but to lead people to fight. The disparity in the strength of the two sides was too great. Unfortunately, Xiao Haitian was beheaded by Lu Yu, and all his soldiers were killed. Thanks to Mrs. Xiao who hid a pair of children in advance, they were able to Survived.

Pei Yan took good care of Jiang Ci, but Jiang Ci still refused to tell the assassin's appearance. Pei Yan couldn't ask more questions. He didn't understand why the assassin killed Teng Rui. Pei Yan didn't want the court officials to become suspicious, so he used The Wei State mission escorted and rescued people, and also lied that they were traveling with their beloved maid Jiang Ci and met an assassin. Wei Zhao's dagger was poisoned and Jiang Ci's injuries worsened, so she had to ask Pei Yan for help.
Wei Zhao sent Lao Liu to search in the woods outside Fanglin Garden and found the package left by Jiang Ci and the letter that the master left for Jiang Ci. Twenty years ago, the sisters Yan Qiaoshuang escaped from prison. Tao Zizhu, the head of the inner court, reported to Xie Che the news of the escape of the sisters Yan Qiaoshuang. The inner court department sent people to search all the way to Ming'an. The two sisters were in hiding, and the elder sister died unfortunately. Yan Qiaoshuang fled to Jiangjiacun in Fengan. She met Jiang Ci and lived in Jiangjiacun ever since. People from the Inner Court found Yan Qiaoshuang again, so she had to send Jiang Ci away, kill those people, and then set the residence on fire.
Yan Qiaoshuang immediately came to Lanyuelou to find Su Yan. She once saved Su Yan's life, and Su Yan was grateful to her. Yan Qiaoshuang wanted to muddy the waters in Qingkang and let Su Yan spread false news to the palace. Pei Yan invited Cui Liang to heal Jiang Ci. Jiang Ci fell into a coma because of the deep poisoning. Cui Liang found out that Jiang Ci had been poisoned by Miao Jiang's poison---Lost Heart Powder, and needed Miao Jiang's Agrimony to detoxify it. Emperor Xie Che once used agrimony to refine a heart-protecting elixir, but some people used agrimony to practice witchcraft. Xie Che angrily destroyed the agrimony that the Miao tribe paid tribute to, and did not allow the Miao tribe to donate any more. Pei Yan was extremely worried. He sent Tong Min to find Doctor Zheng of the Taiyuan Hospital to ask for the only heart-protecting pill left by Xie Che. Doctor Zheng couldn't make the decision and asked Pei Yan to ask for it from Xie Che.
The Imperial Hospital also had Wei Zhao's eyes and ears. Wei Zhao soon learned that Pei Yan was looking for heart-protecting pills to save Jiang Ci. Wei Zhao analyzed that Pei Yan deliberately leaked the news to make him take the bait, and decided to use the trick. Wei Zhao heard about King Zhuang's His beloved concubine, Mrs. Zhou, was greedy and sent someone to poison her. In order to save people, Prince Zhuang must go to Xie Che for the Heart-Protect Pill. Pei Yan would not be able to save Jiang Ci.
Xie Chi called Prince Zhuang to the East Palace and complained that he should not have taken Teng Rui to Yugong Temple without authorization. Someone from Prince Zhuang's Mansion reported the news of Mrs. Zhou's poisoning, and Prince Zhuang hurried back. Pei Yan came to Xie Che in person to ask for the Heart-Protect Pill. Wei Zhao took Xie Che to play chess. They came to see Pei Yan after they finished playing chess. Pei Yan explained his purpose. King Zhuang hurriedly came to Xie Che to ask for the Heart-Protect Pill. There is only one pill left. Pei Yan and King Zhuang couldn't argue. Xie Chi suggested that Pei Yan and King Zhuang try to play chess. King Zhuang asked Wei Zhao to fight for him.
