Outside Pingzhou City, everyone was surprised to find two identical city monuments, revealing Pingzhou's past of war and epidemics.It is said that the people of Pingzhou once obeyed the oracle and moved the whole city to the new city.However, the atmosphere in the new city is still strange and uneasy.
As soon as Xie Jingshu entered the city, he witnessed a woman committing suicide by jumping into the river. Fortunately, Li Mengjue rescued her in time.From the mouth of the maid who committed suicide, everyone learned that there was a peculiar custom in Pingzhou - worshiping a branch of artemisia in the snow as a god, and there was a ceremony to welcome the god in marriage.This time, because the original bride Yin Sanniang disappeared, she had no choice but to choose another woman, which resulted in this tragedy.
In order to solve the mystery between Yin Sanniang and Artemisia on the Snow, everyone began to search for Yin Sanniang's whereabouts.Guided by a series of clues, they came to Huachao Tower in Pingzhou.Xie Jingshu found that this Huachao Tower was surprisingly similar to the Huachao Tower in Gyeonggi Province.Li Mengjue wanted to break in directly, but was stopped by Xie Jingshu's strategy. He decided to pretend to sell Li Mengjue and sneaked into Hua Chao Tower to investigate secretly.
Soon, a fierce fight broke out in Huachao Building, and it turned out that everyone's identities had been exposed.At the critical moment, Lu Xier received a secret letter and left in a hurry.Faced with Li Mengjue's affectionate confession, Xie Jingshu also confessed that he had fallen in love with her at first sight since they first met.He told about his origin and experience, and Li Mengjue gave him warmth and comfort, and even gave him a jade symbolizing hope.
However, a sudden change caused Xie Jingshu to mistakenly think that Li Mengjue was dead, and he was immersed in great grief.Fortunately, Lu Xier and Jing Yan arrived in time and revealed the truth that Li Mengjue had just faked his death and fainted.
In Xie's Mansion, Xie Jingshu and Li Mengjue reviewed the clues related to Bai Rui.Jingyan locked the murderer of Bai Rui in the Liu Mansion, and Lu Xier proposed to kidnap Liu Yu'an for questioning.Although Liu Yu'an insisted that Bai Rui's matter had nothing to do with Liu Mansion, everyone did not believe it easily.
At night, Bai Rui contacted Li Mengjue with the secret code of Suo Mingmen, and agreed to meet the next day and return the silver.At the same time, Yuan Ji and Xie Jingshu had a dispute about the return of Artemisia on the Snow.Xie Jingshu had a grudge because a branch of Artemisia on the Snow framed his father to death and insisted on finding out the truth, while Yuan Ji only hoped that Xie Jingshu would be safe.
In Xie's mansion, Lu Xi'er anxiously looked for Haibotu, but was bumped into by Li Mengjue who was returning home, causing a dispute.Lu Xier warned Li Mengjue that he should hand over the picture to Suomingmen, otherwise it would be tantamount to betrayal and he would be hunted down.However, Li Mengjue was unwilling to put Lu Xier in danger and insisted on alienating her.After Lu Xier left, Li Mengjue checked the silver coins given by Bai Rui and unexpectedly found that they were light silver coins.
