Wen Ji found out Ji Shuran's whereabouts and learned that Taibu Ling was related to Wan Ning. They proposed to take this opportunity to eradicate the Taibu Department. Xue Fangfei came to visit unexpectedly and wanted to ask him to join forces to deal with the Taibo Department and help her find someone who was good at ventriloquism. Xiao Heng readily agreed that eradicating the Taifu Department would be in line with his wishes. He would first ask people to remove the Taibo Department's personnel. He trusted Xue Fangfei. Wen Ji said a few more words and was not hit with a military stick. Xiao Heng smiled and said he was in a good mood.
Mother Sun gave the pills to Ji Shuran to be taken by Jiang Ruoyao before the ceremony. Ji Shuran asked her to keep an eye on Aunt Hu and not to cause trouble. Sun's mother felt uneasy. She always felt that Ji Shuran was too unreliable and thought Ji Shuran was too similar to Ji Yanlin. She missed the Ji Shuran who dared to love and hate before, and reminded her to take care of herself.
Xue Fangfei was worried about the chaos at the ceremony, so she asked Tong'er to find a safe place and asked her what she thought about her future life. Tong'er expressed that she wanted to live a life of fine clothing and fine food. Xue Fangfei gave her a jade pendant and planned to buy her a house in Luyang after this happened. She also considered finding a good home for her, saying that she already regarded her as her biological sister. Tong'er was moved and hugged Xue Fangfei.
Liu Wencai brought people to Jiang's house and deliberately played tricks in front of Jiang Ruoyao. Jiang Ruoyao vomited blood after struggling, and Ji Shuran and Sun's mother created panic. Liu Wencai sensed that there was an evil spirit in the Jiang family, and made the matter very serious. He wanted to open a forum in the Jiang family to find the host of the evil spirit. After hearing this, Jiang Yunbai hurriedly summoned the Jiang family.
Liu Wencai made wild gestures with the people of the Taifu Department. He blindfolded his eyes under the aura of lightning and thunder, and pointed a mahogany sword at Xue Fangfei, saying that she was the host of the evil spirit. Everyone was surprised. Tong'er, Jiang Jingrui and others all spoke for Xue Fangfei. , believed that Liu Wencai was slanderous, and they did not believe that Xue Fangfei was evil. Ji Shuran pretended to speak for Xue Fangfei, but Sun's mother deliberately added fuel to the fire, saying that Xue Fangfei had a completely different temperament, and Jiang Yunbai fell into deep thought.
Liu Wencai created an abnormal atmosphere and wanted to take Xue Fangfei to a Taoist temple to exorcise evil spirits, threatening them that evil spirits would harm the Jiang family. Jiang Yunbai was at a loss and couldn't make up his mind, so he wanted to ask Ji Shuran's opinion. Ji Shuran pretended to be sad and wanted to send Xue Fangfei to the Taoist temple. At this time, people arranged by Xiao Heng entered the scene. Xue Fangfei saw that she was framed as an evil spirit and deliberately used the trick. She suddenly went crazy and bleeded from the corner of her mouth, making it look like Jiang Yue was possessed.
Jiang Yunbai was stunned. He recognized Jiang Yue's voice and looked at Xue Fangfei in surprise. Ji Shuran's eyes hinted to Liu Wencai, asking him to drag Xue Fangfei away. Mrs. Jiang rushed over and wanted to know Jiang Yue's situation so that they could not touch Xue Fangfei. Xue Fangfei called Jiang Yunbai and repeatedly shouted that she had a headache. She was scared when she looked at Ji Shuran. Aunt Hu rushed out and complained to Mrs. Jiang.
After a while, Xue Fangfei woke up. Jiang Yunbai asked her about the situation. She told Jiang Yue about her murder, and Ji Shuran was speechless. Seeing that the situation was critical, Liu Wencai listened to Ji Shuran's words and stabbed Xue Fangfei with a sword, but Tong'er blocked the sword for her. But the people around him were no match for Liu Wencai. Liu Wencai wanted to kill Xue Fangfei again, but he stabbed Tong'er with his sword.
Someone arranged by Xiao Heng arrived and stabbed Liu Wencai. Liu Wencai helped force Ji Shuran to leave, but in the end he was too injured to survive. Before he died, he was still thinking about his past with Ji Shuran. Ji Shuran finally came to her senses, and she burst into tears without being frightened.
Xue Fangfei couldn't calm down after Tong'er's death, and she couldn't accept Tong'er's departure. Jiang Yunbai had Tong'er's body carried away. Xue Fangfei cried and chased after her. She was so sad that she fainted to the ground. Before Tong'er died, she asked Xue Fangfei to bury her and Jiang Li together.
Jiang Yue's case was finally brought to light, but Aunt Hu hanged herself. She left a suicide note telling them the truth about Ye Zhenzhen's murder by Ji Shuran. Jiang Yunbai was also deeply affected by this incident and sat alone in the study crying.
Xiao Heng sealed the Taibu Office, and Emperor Hong Xiao was very satisfied when he learned about it. Wan Ning therefore felt resentful towards Xue Fangfei.
