Under Xuanxuan's personal cooking and sincere explanations, the ministers' doubts about moving the capital gradually dissipated and they began to support his decision.After the five kings heard the news, they decided to make a desperate attempt to unite the Lao Xiyan tribe who opposed the move of the capital to return to their homeland and establish themselves as kings.
On the other side, Xiang Liu agreed to Xiaoyao's request to get rid of the poison, but on this condition, he hoped to have dinner with her.When the two of them just sat down, Tu Shanjing and Li Rongchang appeared unexpectedly.Li Rongchang tried to persuade Xiaoyao to give up her attachment to Fangfeng Bei and switch to Tu Shanjing's arms.However, Xiaoyao resolutely interrupted his persuasion and confessed that she had made an engagement with Chishui Fenglong.Only then did Li Rongchang realize Xiaoyao's true identity and was immediately speechless.
At this time, an old man sang a ballad about Chichen, and the song was full of nostalgia for the hero.Li Rongchang tried to stop him, but Xiaoyao said she was ready to let go of the past.Afterwards, she left with Xiang Liu, who told her that the old man was once a subordinate of Chi Chen and lost an arm.After hearing this, Xiaoyao felt mixed emotions in her heart. She lamented the weight of history and sympathized with the old man's plight.
When the two were alone, Xiaoyao tentatively asked Xiang Liu what he thought of her.Xiang Liu remained silent, while Xiao Yao murmured to herself her expectations: her future partner could not have a family, nor could he be an enemy of her brother.Hao Lingyi's call came from the distance, and Xiang Liu left sadly.
In the court, Xuanxuan successfully persuaded the ministers and the plan to move the capital was smoothly advanced.Seeing that the situation was over, the Five Kings had no choice but to retire and return home.In order to consolidate his power, Xuanxuan maintained friendly relations with the Xinyue family.The old King Yan of Xi suggested that Xuanxuan recruit and surrender Xiang Liu, but Xiang Liu rejected the proposal.He found the one-armed old man and learned that Xiaoyao's poison could be removed, but the process was not easy.Xiang Liu felt mixed emotions in his heart. He realized that Xiao Yao's heart was not with him, but he still decided to find a way to get rid of the poison for her.
Xiaoyao has been depressed recently, and Xingxuan notices it and comes to comfort her.Xiaoyao admitted that she misses the past days and Shiqi, and she hates her current weakness.Xuanxuan comforted her distressedly, hoping that she could find someone who would treat her sincerely.However, Xiaoyao smiled bitterly and shook his head, thinking that he was destined to have a rough life.Xuanxuan was filled with regret. He hated Tushanjing for causing Xiaoyao pain, and he also hated himself for failing to protect her.
