Although Cui Yulang often visited brothels and was debauched in his previous life, Li Rong read his poems and believed that he was not indifferent to government affairs. Therefore, Li Rong guessed that Cui Yulang might have a reason for asking for help from his friends from the same hometown, but more importantly, he wanted to take this opportunity to rely on the power of the Princess Mansion to realize his ambitions.

As expected, Cui Yulang did not deny it. He bluntly stated that this case was indeed intended for Li Rong because Xiao Pingzhang, who had seized the spot, was a relative of Concubine Rou. In Cui Yulang's view, powerful people often have relatives who do evil. What's more, Concubine Rou is being favored. Xiao Pingzhang is arrogant and evil. He is sure that no one dares to stand up for the poor scholar. Once the matter gets serious, the investigators may be killed by the emperor. Secret punishment. And Li Rong is the only person capable of dealing with this situation.

Li Rong felt that Cui Yulang still had something to say, so she pretended to turn around and leave. Upon seeing this, Cui Yulang hurriedly spoke and admitted that the main reason for turning to Li Rong was because Li Rong's justice and wisdom when investigating the Qin family case made him believe that the princess was a trustworthy person. For this reason, Li Rong arranged for Cui Yulang to lurk next to Concubine Rou, provide him with information, and asked him to take the poison that required an antidote every month to ensure that he would not betray. After Concubine Rou is completely overthrown, Cui Yulang can regain his freedom.

Pei Wenxuan saw that Li Rong had almost chewed his gums after meeting Cui Yulang. He patted his sore legs and ordered Tong Ye to secretly destroy Cui Yulang's carriage wheels. Cui Yulang was not rich to begin with. He bargained with the coachman for a long time in order to save money. Now he lost money and even had to walk home. When Pei Wenxuan thought about this, he couldn't help feeling happy in his heart.

Cui Yulang stood alone on the official road, hoping that a carriage would pass by and give him a ride. Just at this time, Tong Ye drove a carriage and came towards them. Cui Yulang hurriedly waved, but Pei Wenxuan asked Tong Ye to speed up, and when Cui Yulang was not paying attention, he poured a cup of tea at him through the car window. Pei Wenxuan, who once again had a small victory, felt even more satisfied.

Now that Su Rongqing has lost power, Wang Houwen is no longer willing to listen to his orders and finds various excuses to excuse his resignation. Su Rongqing is extremely angry and laughs, mocking him that it is no wonder he was eliminated quickly in his previous life because he could not see the general trend of the country at all. At this moment, the maid hurriedly came to report that the Xiao family relatives had committed crimes, making the situation more complicated. Concubine Rou was concerned that her brother's soldiers and horses needed the support of the tribe, so she had to continue to maintain contact with the tribe, making them still a grasshopper on a rope.

In the morning of the next day, Li Rong entered the palace as usual, only to see Pei Wenxuan being extremely indifferent to her and looking unhappy. Before going to court, Li Rong asked Cui Yulang to impeach the prince to the emperor. Although Cui Yulang felt great pressure, he had to bite the bullet and get the limelight. The reason for his impeachment was so absurd that even Li Rong found it hard to hear. However, the emperor deliberately targeted Li Chuan and publicly punished him by kneeling in the ancestral temple until the next morning. To show his sincerity and filial piety.

After this incident, Cui Yulang was deprived of two months' salary and felt miserable. Li Chuan Li Chuan was young after all. Although he tried hard to hold it back on the surface, he was still a little angry. When the court came down, he would inevitably give Cui Yulang a warning, which made Cui Yulang break out in a cold sweat. Fortunately, Li Rong is quite satisfied with Cui Yulang's performance and believes that his impeachment today will definitely attract the attention of all parties.

Later, the maid came to invite Cui Yulang on the order of Concubine Rou, but Cui Yulang kept Li Rong's instructions in mind and declined Concubine Rou's invitation. On the other hand, the queen was very angry, knowing that once Cui Yulang started, more people would challenge the crown prince's status, so she planned to find someone to teach Cui Yulang a lesson, but was blocked by Li Chuan.

Li Rong truthfully told Cui Yulang that he was from the princess's house, and her original intention was to get rid of Concubine Rou before she became big. Li Rong knew that the angry words spoken by her mother had hurt Li Chuan, so she told him why she supported him unconditionally. She felt sorry for him as the prince and even the future king, who had no choice but to live in a high and lonely position. She just hoped that he would live an easier life.

Although Cui Yulang did not agree to Concubine Rou's appointment, Concubine Rou still sent people to monitor him and speculate on the queen's next move. Li Rong acted as planned and arranged a meeting between the prince and Cui Yulang. Concubine Rou mistakenly thought that the queen was trying to win over Cui Yulang, so she sent someone to invite Cui Yulang again, promising that the benefits that King Su could give him would be twice as much as those of the prince.

The next day, when Li Rong went to the street, she saw Su Rongqing distributing food to the people and taking in scholars who had no money to stay. Su Rongqing invited Li Rong to visit the Su family's property and followed him silently. He looked very much like Su Rongqing in the previous life, which made Li Rong feel complicated. Su Rongqing asked Li Rong if he had anything to ask. Li Rong said that if that day comes, the two of them may have to say goodbye. After Su Rongqing left, Pei Wenxuan appeared in front of Li Rong with jealousy, but Li Rong still can't understand what Su Rongqing did.

Soon, Li Rong summoned Chen Houzhao and learned that the Su family had paid him to conceal the secret, so he arranged for him to leave by boat to create the illusion that Shen He was murdered. Then, Cui Yulang surrendered to Concubine Rou, willing to help her seize the Inspectorate, and revealed the truth about Chen Houzhao's "murder" by Li Rong to make a big fuss.
