Since the last time he fell off a cliff and was injured, Mo Liancheng has been taking good care of Qu Xiaotan and using medicine to replenish his health.However, the good medicine tasted bitter and was difficult for Qu Xiaotan to swallow, so Mo Liancheng actually drank it for her. This scene made people speculate whether he had ulterior motives and wanted to take this opportunity to let Qu Xiaotan sleep with her.However, Qu Xiaotan was not willing to succumb to his plot. She resolutely drank the tonic and made her position clear.

In the Qu Mansion, Qu Jianglin and Mo Yihuai had a secret conversation. In order to compete for the position of crown prince, they planned to sacrifice Qu Tan'er.However, Qu Tan'er had already learned the truth about the hot spring assassination from the guards. She understood that this was just an excuse made by the emperor to protect Mo Yihuai.At the same time, Mrs. Yun and Mrs. Yi came to enjoy an ancient painting with Qu Tan'er. In fact, this painting was passed down by the eyeliner placed by the Great Prince next to the Eighth Prince. Everything in the painting was a piece of Qu Tan'er.It represents Tan'er's love affair with the great prince. The meaning of this painting is to ask Qu Tan'er to meet Mo Yihuai three days later.

After careful consideration, Qu Xiaotan decided to help Qu Tan'er escape from the palace.She finished the thousand-year-old ginseng given to her by Shi Shi within three days, and Mo Liancheng agreed to let her go out for fun.During the tea chat between the emperor and the three princes, Mo Liancheng won the emperor's praise for his courage and strategy.However, Fourteen's quick words displeased the emperor, who criticized Fourteen and hinted that he was responsible for his words and deeds.At this time, Mo Yihuai deliberately leaked the news that Qu Tan'er was in danger. In order to save her, Mo Liancheng gave up the emperor's audience, which also meant that he gave up running for the crown prince position.

Qu Tan'er was plotted by Mo Yihuai and was taken to Qu Mansion to suffer inhuman treatment.Qu Tan'er, who was kneeling in the pouring rain, was heartbroken. She finally saw clearly her position in the heart of the great prince - she was just a chess piece.Qu Xiaotan, who woke up at this time, felt Qu Tan'er's pain. Just when she was at a loss, Mo Liancheng appeared in time and took off his robe to keep her warm.He was heartbroken when he saw Qu Xiaotan who was soaked by the rain. He said harsh words to Qu Jianglin and vowed to repay the humiliation Qu Xiaotan suffered today.
