Luo Mingxi thought that Di Chengen was still useful, and warned Mu Qing to remember that she was a pawn in this arrangement, and she should do her part as a pawn. After Mu Qing returned to Yuanshui Pavilion, Di Chengen confided in his drunkenness, saying that he had suffered too much since he was a child, so he hoped to replace Ren Anle and become the real "Di Ziyuan" and become the concubine admired by thousands of people.

Now that Emperor Cheng'en has been in Beijing for a few days to attract the limelight, the Empress Dowager urged Gu Wanying to participate in the selection of concubines, but under such stalemate, everything is calm. A few months ago, due to Gu Qi's benevolent actions, the military power was taken away, and the prestige of the Zhongyihou Mansion was not as good as before. Although Han Zhongyuan didn't like the emperor's daughter, he couldn't allow Gu Yunnian's daughter to enter the East Palace, so Luo Mingxi and Ren Anle guessed that he would find a more powerful candidate.

Just as the two expected, Prime Minister Zuo suggested that Princess Mo Shuang of Northern Qin participate in the selection of concubines. If this matter can be used to ease the diplomatic relations between the two countries and avoid disputes, it will definitely benefit Dajing and his people without any harm. Luo Mingxi thinks that more people will be involved in the selection of concubines, which will instead distract everyone from Ren Anle. No matter who they are, they will think that Ren Anle is a water bandit who covets the prince's beauty and power, and will not doubt her origin and motives at all.

However, in this huge capital, Luo Mingxi is the only one who remembers Ren Anle's real identity. He also knows that Ren Anle likes Changsi flowers the most, but the flowers cannot be given away before they are fully grown. Ren Anle laments that he has never seen Chang Sihua since he entered the city. The matter of revenge is related to the innocence of 80,000 people.

Han Ye missed Di Ziyuan, but he didn't dare to meet her in person, but Di Chengen racked his brains to please the Queen Mother and the Emperor. Mu Qing reminded Di Chengen not to covet things that did not belong to her, but Di Chengen did not want to continue to suffer ridicule and contempt after ten years of imprisonment, she wanted justice and compensation for herself.

As soon as the words fell, the queen mother sent someone to pass on a message to Di Chengen, asking her to write an inscription on the newly built prison of the Ministry of Justice on the grounds of good handwriting. Di Chengen was overjoyed and delighted, thinking that the queen mother recognized him. To wake up the dreamer with one word, Di Chengen did not want to offend the queen mother, nor did he want to offend Ren Anle, lest he be caught in the middle and offend both sides, and eventually be sent back to Daishan.

Princess Mo Shuang's team entered the capital in a big way. An Ning didn't have a good impression of Bei Qin at all, thinking that Bei Qin came with bad intentions. Han Ye heard that Di Chengen claimed that he was ill, so he closed the door to see no visitors for the time being. He guessed that she was an excuse for refusing to write the inscription. He was convinced that her disposition had not changed even after ten years of hard work.

In order to preserve Emperor Chengen's position as the crown princess, Han Ye began to plan countermeasures. Luo Mingxi reminded him that he was unwilling to come forward due to various concerns. Han Ye left the Ministry of Justice and walked back. Seeing this, Ren Anle took a short ride and joked that he now had an extra candidate for the crown princess from Beiqin. Suddenly the heavy rain was approaching, Han Ye hurriedly blocked Ren Anle's car window, his eyes met and his heart skipped a beat.

The Empress Dowager confided to the tablet of the first emperor, and decided to go to see Emperor Cheng'en in person. At this time, Di Chengen received a note with a red umbrella on it. Just when she was puzzled, she was suddenly called into the palace by the Queen Mother for questioning. Emperor Chengen was humble and small, and specially presented Buddhist scriptures on the anniversary of Han Taizu's death. He had no complaints about the extermination of the family, and expressed his willingness to spend the rest of his life to pay off the sins of the emperor's family.

When Princess Anning saw this scene, she couldn't believe it, she really couldn't figure out why Di Ziyuan became like this. Mu Qing was angry that Emperor Cheng'en should not have entered the palace privately. After all, the queen mother was thoughtful and difficult to understand. She could promise her prosperity and wealth, or let her die quietly in the palace. Back then, 80,000 soldiers couldn't escape the wrath of the emperor, and Mu Qing couldn't guarantee that he could protect Di Chengen, but Di Chengen didn't care at all, and even gave him a sword spike as a gift, which made him feel mixed feelings.

Luo Mingxi gave Ren Anle a list so that she could keep abreast of the movements of the courtiers. Di Chengensi and Han Ye have not come to see him so far, worried that they will lose power in this concubine selection, so they decided to take the initiative. Afterwards, Di Chengen dressed up and came to Caiweixuan, deliberately picking the calligraphy and painting of the Patriarch of the Di family to attract Han Ye to chat with him.
