Murong Jinghe watched as Mei Lin chopped filling in the kitchen and decided to help her. As they worked together, the atmosphere grew more intimate, making Mei Lin's heart race. She excused herself under the pretext of washing her face, and when she returned, Murong Jinghe came over to comb her hair. He mentioned that the future princess he was looking for resembled Mei Lin, expressing his feelings for her.

Just as Mei Lin felt touched by his words, a young boy named A Niu ran over to interrupt, announcing that the banquet was about to start. The harvest feast was lively, with the villagers teasing Mei Lin and Murong Jinghe about pretending to be siblings while being a couple.

An aunt joyfully asked Mei Lin if she was satisfied with Murong Jinghe, to which Mei Lin replied that while he had his flaws, her mother would definitely approve of him as a son-in-law. Since Mei Lin only accepted adopted sons and would not marry, Murong Jinghe was thrilled to hear her positive response about him. He immediately took her to a secluded spot in the woods, wanting her to confess her feelings for him.

Mei Lin honestly stated that she never lied and spoke from her heart. Murong Jinghe was overjoyed, and under the twinkling fireflies, they embraced and kissed until A Niu appeared again, breaking this beautiful moment. Because the Emperor's Feathered Guards were keeping a close eye on the Crown Prince, Murong Xuanlie could not search openly. He believed that even if Murong Jinghe returned, he would not be able to seize the throne.

However, he needed to win over Yin Luomei soon, so he had Wang Quan deliver a vial of medicine to Fengyi Palace. Soon after, Concubine Yin called for Yin Luomei, claiming a headache. She arranged for Yin Luomei to change into women's clothing and secretly placed an aphrodisiac in the incense burner. Yin Luomei was powerless to resist, and just as Murong Xuanlie rushed in, the situation became precarious.

He was pushed onto the bed by Yin Luomei, and as they neared the final step, he suddenly pushed her away and drove a hairpin into his thigh, attempting to regain his clarity. This action deeply moved Yin Luomei. At that moment, Concubine Yin arrived with the Emperor at Fengyi Palace. Murong Xuanlie draped a coat over Yin Luomei and stepped outside to block the entrance. Concubine Yin was confused about why the Crown Prince had changed his plans suddenly.

The Emperor spoke with Murong Xuanlie in private, angrily accusing him of killing Murong Jinghe and expressing disappointment that he, as the Crown Prince and future heir, was entangled in personal affairs. However, Murong Xuanlie firmly declared his determination to marry no one but Yin Luomei. He recalled the lessons learned from the previous dynasty’s downfall, understanding that powerful in-laws could pose great threats. Yet, he believed he could secure the Murong family’s power.

Yin Luomei was touched by his restraint, willing to harm himself rather than force her, and she opened her heart to him, saying she would write his name on the marriage decree. After a period of treatment, Li Qing's madness was completely cured. However, he insisted on meeting the King of Jing before the Crown Prince was overthrown.

Since the Emperor had withdrawn the Feathered Guards and Qing Yan was being watched by the Crown Prince, he sent a message to Murong Jinghe via pigeon, leaving him to find a way back to the capital on his own. Mei Lin sat beside Murong Jinghe with a wine bottle, lamenting that their good days were coming to an end.

Murong Jinghe reassured her that once they overthrew the Crown Prince and the situation stabilized, they would return to Qingzhou together. She could open a fruit pastry shop while he continued to serve as General Wei Bei, spending leisure time painting and drawing, and defending their home during chaos. The next day, the villagers gathered to bid farewell with reluctance. Wei Laoer insisted on following Mei Lin and Murong Jinghe, but Murong Jinghe couldn’t bring him along.

He cleverly tricked Wei Laoer into going to pull up a large tree, allowing him and Mei Lin to slip away unnoticed. The Emperor believed that the third son had died, and even uncovering the truth would be futile. He ordered that Zi Gu be informed to treat Mei Lin as if she were dead. Zi Gu understood the Emperor's predicament and sent word to Yue Qin's team entering the capital, informing them of Mei Lin’s disappearance.

Meanwhile, Qing Yan sent word to Murong Jinghe that on the day Yue Qin entered the capital as the young lord of Xi Yan, the Crown Prince would replace all the guards at the city gates with his own Iron Guards from the East Palace under the pretense of welcoming the young lord. This meant the gates would be heavily guarded, prompting Mei Lin and Murong Jinghe to think of another plan.
