Song Hailong learned from the gangster what Lian Hua'er had done, and then he realized that Lian Hua'er was so cruel. But Lian Hua'er keeps saying it's all for Song Hailong. She doesn't want Lian Man'er to steal the limelight when she runs the hotel, and she also wants Song Hailong to have a chance to get ahead because of the hotel's prosperous business. But Song Hailong also thinks that Lian Hua'er has done something wrong. He should pay the price, so he was very disappointed with Lian Hua'er.
Song Hailong took the initiative to find Lian Man'er and apologize for poisoning Lian Hua'er. He knew that everything Lian Hua'er did was for himself, and he begged Lian Man'er to let Lian Hua'er go. Song Hailong still loved Lian Hua'er in his heart. He couldn't bear to send Lian Hua'er to the government. He took the initiative to promise Lian Man'er that he would never let Lian Hua'er get into trouble again in the future, and he would also bear the compensation for the poisoned villagers. He also promised to reopen Lian Maner's restaurant.
Song Hailong asked his brother Song Haikun for help because of this matter. Song Haikun wanted his brother to divorce Lian Huaer to end the matter, but Song Hailong threatened him with the smuggling of official and private salt between Song Haikun and Wu Zhonglian, so Song Haikun finally decided to help. Lian Hua'er made a big mistake and was ready to be divorced. Song Hailong never left her and helped her solve the problem. Lian Hua'er felt Song Hailong's love and decided to live peacefully in the Song Mansion.
Lian Man'er's restaurant reopened and business is still booming. Wu Zhonglian learned that Shen Nuo found out that the person who framed the restaurant was Lian Hua'er, the fourth lady of the Song Dynasty, and asked the Song Dynasty to take the initiative to close his restaurant. Wu Zhonglian recognized Shen Nuo's ability and agreed to let him enter Jinyangxing. Although his confidant Liu Fugui had doubts about Shen Nuo, he could not stop Wu Zhonglian's decision.
Shen Nuo and Shi San entered Wu Zhonglian's chamber of commerce as they wished. Because Song Haikun had lost his books before, he was now unwelcome in the chamber of commerce. Shen Nuo attended a gathering of merchants for the first time and was appreciated by Wu Zhonglian in the guessing game. Then Shen Nuo discovered that the next freighter chosen by Wu Zhonglian was Boss Cao, and Shen Nuo decided to do what he wanted and get close to Boss Cao. Shen Nuo learned that Boss Cao was a bird lover, so he specially trained a bird to give to Boss Cao. Boss Cao was very happy and took the initiative to invite Shen Nuo to drink tea and discuss business with him.
Wu Zhonglian's subordinate Liu Fugui accidentally met Lian Xiu'er on the street. He saw Lian Xiu'er seeking fortune telling from a Taoist priest on the street. He saw the other party's wish to be a queen. Liu Fugui became interested in her and inquired and learned that the other party was Lian Xiu'er. Shouren's sister, Liu Fugui took the initiative to find Lian Shouren and forced him to marry his sister to him as his concubine, and also threatened Lian Shouren with his position as chief regent. Lian Shouren returned to Lian's house and mentioned the marriage in order to become the chief regent, but he concealed the true information about Liu Fugui. Lian Man'er learned that her sister-in-law Lian Xiu'er was going to marry the Liu family in the town. She inquired from Thirteen and learned that Liu Fugui had no son in his family, and she immediately became suspicious.
