In his spare time, Cui Xingzhou was particularly concerned about Liu Miantang's current situation. He not only asked his subordinates to pay close attention to her whereabouts, but also took care of her life in detail.Knowing that Liu Miantang was thinking about Wujiang vinegar, a specialty of Qingzhou, he personally ordered his servants to search everywhere, and even personally conveyed his thoughts to the cooking mother-in-law who took care of Liu Miantang.

When Liu Miantang saw the familiar Wujiang vinegar, he suddenly had doubts in his heart. How could there be Qingzhou specialties in this remote place?So she made a clever plan and used roasted goose as bait the next day to test the person behind it.As expected, Cui Xingzhou fell into the trap and did not hesitate to use his connections to borrow the precious black-maned goose from the Northern Zhou Dynasty, just to make Liu Miantang smile.During dinner, everyone was full of praise for the goose meat, but Liu Miantang learned from the mother-in-law who cooked the rice that the price of goose meat was far from worth it, which made her even more aware.

The next day, Liu Miantang personally investigated and easily saw through Cui Xingzhou's arrangement. Not only did he make up the price difference, but he also sent a message through the shadow guard, clearly stating that the two had nothing to do with each other and hoped that he would not get involved anymore.In private, she quietly used her savings to buy the escort agency that was about to be sold by her grandfather. This not only solved her aunt's urgent need, but also demonstrated her determination and wisdom.

On the day when the Escort Bureau was in full swing, Cui Xingzhou showed up uninvited. Liu Miantang tried to get him to retreat in the face of difficulties by pretending to be his husband.However, Cui Xingzhou did not give up easily, but instead became more determined.After he confirmed the truth about “husband” through investigation, he even took advantage of it and went directly to the door to ask for an escort, using himself as an escort to get closer to Liu Miantang.

During the escort trip, Cui Xingzhou returned to his old ways and went to the market with Liu Miantang to relive his old dreams.He tried to use candied haws and other small things to bring back the sweetness of the past, but was coldly rejected by Liu Miantang.While riding horses in the countryside, Cui Xingzhou expressed his feelings directly and asked Liu Miantang if he was willing to get back together.Liu Miantang's behavior of crossing the line hints at the unbridgeable gap between the two, which is not only due to their different identities, but also their different personalities and pursuits.

Cui Xingzhou's persistence and bravery also aroused the vigilance and anger of Beizhou Prince.He was worried that Cui Xingzhou's cross-border behavior would cause unnecessary trouble, so he was banned from the palace.However, during the period of confinement, Cui Xingzhou not only did not restrain himself, but even more boldly disclosed his past with Liu Miantang, and even called Liu Miantang "Qingzhou's little wife%" in front of the prince of Beizhou. This deep affection and uninhibitedness made himThe prince of Beizhou was shocked and suspicious, but there was nothing he could do.
