Wang Kunwu and An Xiuyi were going around intercepting people carrying wine jars. As soon as they spotted one, they would immediately subdue the person. However, some of the jars had already exploded, poisoning the nearby citizens. When Shitou, the informant who had provided the transportation information, saw Wang Kunwu fighting with the Faceless Man over a wine jar, he snatched it away and ran into a sealed room.

The poison bomb soon exploded, and Shitou sacrificed his life to save many others. Yuan Mo found A Shu and Yuchi Hua dancing with the refugees and informed them of the White-Clad Guest's plot. A Shu immediately ordered the refugees to return to their homes and lock their doors.

Yuan Mo believed that A Shu was the real target of the White-Clad Guest, so he left Wang Kunwu to continue dealing with the poison bombs while he and Yuchi Hua took A Shu away. As the carriage traveled halfway, they suddenly encountered an ambush set by the White-Clad Guest. Yuchi Hua and Third Lady used wooden boards to block the windows, and then, a large number of unknown allies suddenly appeared.

The Faceless Man was no match for them and had to retreat. Kang Yunhai arrived shortly after, explaining that he had secretly placed many agents in Dayong, and now they were proving useful. A Shu returned safely to the Princess Residence. The Prefect of Lin informed her that the civilian casualties were minimal and that all the poison bombs had been confiscated.

Yuchi Hua requested that the Prefect of Lin increase the troops protecting the Princess Residence, and he immediately made arrangements. Yuan Mo knew that A Shu was grieving over Shitou's death, so he, Wang Kunwu, and Yuchi Hua stayed in the Princess Residence to keep her company. On his way back to the Yule Hall, Kang Yunhai was stopped by the White-Clad Guest. After rescuing A Shu, his identity was completely exposed.

The White-Clad Guest killed both of Kang Yunhai's attendants without hesitation. Knowing that the White-Clad Guest was ruthless and wouldn't spare him, Kang Yunhai pleaded for A Shu's life. Suddenly, the White-Clad Guest removed his mask, revealing that he was Qing Er, who worked at Sifang Hall. Before Kang Yunhai could ask more questions, he was stabbed to death. Suddenly, vibrant fireworks bloomed over the sky of Chang Le City.

A Shu and Yuan Mo also went to the window to admire them. A Shu, seemingly struck by a sense of foreboding, felt deeply saddened. As a red-cheeked butterfly fluttered through the air, she thought of how Kang Yunhai had spent decades protecting her with his life. Lin Susu witnessed Qing Er killing Kang Yunhai and quietly tried to escape but was discovered by the White-Clad Guest.

She hid in a storeroom, with Qing Er close behind, but he didn’t find her. An Xiuyi also came to search the storeroom. Qing Er prepared to launch a sneak attack, but Lin Susu, hiding nearby, loudly warned him. Qing Er quickly stabbed Lin Susu to death and then took the opportunity to flee. An Xiuyi, cradling the dying Lin Susu who had sacrificed her life to save him, broke down in tears.

That night, the Lantern Festival in Chang Le City was filled with an overwhelming sense of tragedy. The next day, during the morning roll call, An Xiuyi appeared at Sifang Hall in a dazed and sorrowful state. A Shu mourned for her fallen Yule compatriots and discovered Kang Yunhai's body. Overcome with grief, she wept uncontrollably and silently vowed to seek revenge. When the coroner was preparing Kang Yunhai’s body, A Shu insisted on handling it herself.

To A Shu, Kang Yunhai was like a parent. If not for her, Kang Yunhai could have lived a carefree life, traveling the world. Ma Zhiwen was appointed as the new Deputy Envoy of Yule, replacing Kang Yunhai. The White-Clad Guest’s influence was, of course, behind this decision. After taking office, the White-Clad Guest immediately asked Ma Zhiwen whether he knew of a joint letter from Yule's old officials that Kang Yunhai had in his possession. Ma Zhiwen didn’t know, but he recalled seeing Kang Yunhai visit the Lin family’s treasury once.
