> Warm on a Cold Night Recap

Han Zheng and Su Jiu'er were brought to the imperial court after Han's intrusion into the palace caused alarm to the emperor. Su Jiu'er desperately tried to explain Han Zheng's reason for entering the palace and accused Zhang, the royal chef, of murder, but had no evidence to support her claims. In a critical moment, Han Zheng broke open a giant block of ice that was holding raw fish, revealing the body of Zhang's wife to the crowd. This shocking scene led to Zhang's confession and punishment.

As a result of his actions, Han Zheng was imprisoned, and his status as a prince of the Qi clan made his situation even more sensitive. Su Jiu'er was devastated to learn that Han Zheng was the only son of the Xue Qi King, who was in charge of the four Qi clans. Wen Jun and Su Jiu'er analyzed the history and conflicts between the Qi and Qian nations, realizing that Han Zheng's intrusion into the palace was a matter of political interest, and they feared they would be unable to help him.

Wen Ying, the Crown Prince, was constantly urging Wen Jun to release Han Zheng. Finally, they came up with a compromise. They dispatched an envoy to the northern frontier to negotiate with the Qi clan. If the Xue Qi King was willing to give up the "Six Treaties of Qian Qi," then the Qian nation would not pursue Han Zheng's actions.

When the Xue Qi King learned of Han Zheng's intrusion into the palace and his behavior, he was furious. The nobles of the Qi clans were also displeased with Han Zheng's actions. Despite his son's situation, the Xue Qi King refused to sacrifice the interests of his clan to help Han Zheng. He planned to reject the Qian nation's demands, but unfortunately, the envoy sent by the Qian nation was killed on the northern frontier, which would inevitably lead to a conflict between the Qian and Qi nations.
