Qiao Ruohui found out that He Shenwei had secretly withdrawn money from the accounting room and had a woman's handkerchief hidden on her body. She suspected that He Shenwei was having an affair. She wrote to Qiao Ruohui. He Shenwei cut out the letter and imitated Qiao Ruohui's handwriting and wrote to Qiao Ruohui.After receiving a letter saying he was safe, Hua Miao was worried that Qiao Ruohui would find out about his and He Shenwei's plot to occupy Qiao's wine shop and wanted to poison Qiao Ruohui, so he prepared a poison.

He Shenwei brought the bowl of poison to Qiao Ruohui. Qiao Ruohui was very weak. She was determined not to drink the medicine He Shenwei brought. She asked He Shenwei if he was having an affair. He Shenwei confessed to this and alsoQiao Ruohui was forced to drink the bowl of poison, and Qiao Ruohui was soon poisoned and died.

When Qiao Ruolan heard He Shenwei's story, she was so angry that she gritted her teeth and drew her knife to kill He Shenwei to avenge her sister Qiao Ruohui. Luo Shu tried his best to stop him. He Shenwei put all the blame on Hua Miao, and Hua Miao made every possible excuse., He Shenwei exposed in public that Hua Miao was the second leader of the White Ant Gang---White Paper Fan, Hua MiaoMiao refused to plead guilty, and He Shenwei kept claiming that he was Hua Miao's sword. She spared him because Qiuniang was pregnant with his child. Qiuniang stood up to exonerate Hua Miao and admitted the child in her belly.It wasn't He Shenwei's at all. He Shenwei was immediately dumbfounded, and then he realized that he had fallen into the trap of Hua Miao and Qiuniang.

Hua Miao yelled at He Shenwei, mocking him for being worse than a dog. He Shenwei was so humiliated by the scolding that he drew a knife and stabbed Hua Miao.Qiao Ruolan brought Luo Shu to the wine shop, recalling the scene where she and her sister played here when they were children, and felt mixed emotions. Luo Shu encouraged Qiao Ruolan to cheer up and not to live up to her sister Qiao Ruohui's expectations.

Hua Miao was imprisoned, and he refused to explain his crimes. Han Muzhi explained the stakes to him, but he did not buy it and kept his words. Han Muzhi ordered him to be tortured, and then Hua Miao confessed that he used white ants to rob people.Women's numerous crimes.Han Muzhi vowed to eradicate all white ants in the city. Chen Meiqing persuaded him to think twice and brought up the story of the governor's suppression of white ants five years ago. The governor was attacked by white ants in the downtown area and eventually became deaf and had to leave Linfen. Han Muzhi's thoughtsIt was decided that he did not want to tolerate adultery. Chen Meiqing felt that Han Muzhi was doing it for Luo Shu.

Han Muzhi wrote to the Pingyang Guard in Taiyuan for help, and then waited for news at the county government office. Luo Shu guessed what Han Muzhi was thinking and took out the long-dusted pipa to play a song.The good news came soon. The Pingyang Guards went out to eliminate the white ants. Han Muzhi personally went to the gate of the county government to greet the victorious Pingyang Guards. Unexpectedly, the leader was Qi Menglin. Qi Menglin is currently the Deputy Qianhu Envoy of Pingyang Guards. He personally led the army to eradicate the white ants., the people lined the streets to welcome them.

Han Muzhi expressed his gratitude to Qi Menglin for eradicating the white ants that had been living in Linfen for more than ten years. Luo Shu took all the captured white ants into prison and then returned to Han Muzhi. Qi Menglin showed off in front of Luo Shu, but Luo Shu ignored him.Chen's father drove his flock of sheep to the county government office to find Chen Meiqing, forcing him to go home as soon as possible to marry Zaohua. Before leaving, he left a sheep to replenish his health. Chen Meiqing had not dared to go home in order to escape from the marriage.

Luo Shu congratulated Qi Menglin. Cai Baozi asked Qi Menglin to invite everyone.Watching the Taiyuan Opera Troupe's play, Qi Menglin agreed wholeheartedly. He curiously inquired about Chen Meiqing's unmarried daughter-in-law. Cai Baozi also joined in the fun. Chen Meiqing was angry and wanted to take the mutton away, so they had to shut up.

After the banquet, Han Muzhi and Luo Shu were playing chess in the yard. Luo Shu thanked Han Muzhi on behalf of the Linfen woman. Han Muzhi made it clear that the reason why he sent troops to suppress the bandits was for Luo Shu. He expressed his feelings to Luo Shu in person, and Luo Shu was killed.He was frightened and overwhelmed by his sudden confession. Han Muzhi gave him a day to think about it, and Chen Meiqing heard their conversation outside the wall.

Chen Meiqing came to Luo Shu for a showdown and persuaded Luo Shu to give up on Han Muzhi as soon as possible. Han Muzhi was already engaged. His fiancée was Liu Wan, the daughter of Governor Liu Yiqing. Even if Luo Shu became Han Muzhi's concubine, Liu Yiqing would not agree. If Han Muzhi insisted on marrying her,Luo Shu would ruin his future. Chen Meiqing saw that Luo Shu also liked Han Muzhi, and he vowed to prevent them from getting together at all costs. Chen Meiqing reminded Luo Shu to make Han Muzhi give up.

Chen Meiqing's words completely woke her up, and she did not go to Han Muzhi's appointment.Han Muzhi waited until very late and Luo Shu didn't show up. He was very disappointed.Han Muzhi learned from Cai Baozi that Qi Menglin invited people from the county government to watch a play, and Luo Shu agreed to go to the play. Han Muzhi came to the stage early, and Luo Shu came later. Qi Menglin invited everyone to watch "The Purple Hairpin", but Han Muzhi had no intention of watching the play.He stared at Luo Shu, trying to see the answer from Luo Shu's expression, but Luo Shu turned a blind eye to him.

The Purple Hairpin tells the story of a man who gave up the daughter of a prince and married the daughter of a commoner who shared his aspirations. Luo Shu left after reading half of the story, followed closely by Han Muzhi. Luo Shu couldn't help but come to the chessboard., Han MuzhiAsking her why she broke the appointment last night, Luo Shu didn't want to be a concubine, let alone affect Han Muzhi's future. He just wanted someone who loved her wholeheartedly. Qi Menglin heard the conversation between Luo Shu and Han Muzhi, and he secretly made up his mind to pursue Luo Shu.From that day on, Luo Shu put aside his admiration for Han Muzhi and regarded him as his boss.
