Ren Anle saw the graceful and unrestrained dance of the sword and was reminded of Di Ziyuan. For a moment, he felt somewhat lost. Di Chengen felt jealous and intentionally plucked the qin strings faster, hoping to embarrass Ren Anle in front of everyone. However, Ren Anle retaliated by cutting off Di Chengen's hairpin with her sword, mocking her for being so panic-stricken. There was no trace of the grace expected from the Crown Princess.

Seeing this, Han Ye quickly stepped forward and personally helped Di Chengen tidy her hair. He took out a phoenix hairpin and placed it on her head, publicly selecting her as the Crown Princess. However, before the celebration could continue, the Empress Dowager and the Emperor hurriedly arrived. She declared that as long as she was alive, no daughter of the Di family would ever enter the Crown Prince's residence. With that, she pulled off the phoenix hairpin from Di Chengen's head.

Watching Di Chengen's sad appearance, Han Ye said that regardless of the outcome, tonight's banquet was held for her. Then, gently supporting Di Chengen, he led her away. Meanwhile, Ren Anle walked out of the palace in a daze and coincidentally encountered Luo Mingxi at the palace gate. Just a second ago, she had been delusional that Han Ye would give her the hairpin. Now, she felt guilty toward her deceased father. How could she accept something from the Han family?

Back in the palace, the Empress Dowager was still somewhat angry. Han Zhongyuan thought that if Di Chengen sincerely surrendered, it might not be a bad thing for them. The incident involving Di Yongning's death had been disputed in the public for a long time and had not been completely silenced even to this day. Therefore, sending Di Ziyuan to Daishan was to make her completely submit.

Han Zhongyuan explained to the Empress Dowager that Di Chengen becoming the Crown Princess was a legacy of the late Emperor, a gentleman's promise. It was also a hidden reason for taming the Di family. The Empress Dowager listened thoughtfully and gradually calmed down.

Gu Qishan, who was lecherous and cruel, killed Zhong Jing, a prospective bride for the Crown Prince, and attempted to cover up his crime by burning the entire Zhong family. He hurried back to Zhongyi Marquis' residence that night with his slave. Gu Yunnian, disappointed with his son's behavior, had to first investigate the Zhong family's situation through his subordinates and act opportunistically, finding a scapegoat if necessary.

Ren Anle went alone to Jing'an Marquis' residence to pay her respects. However, she lamented the injustice suffered by the 80,000 soldiers and her father's unjust death. It still couldn't bring justice, and the real culprit was still sitting on the throne, enjoying the obedience of countless people. At this moment, Princess An Ning also arrived at Jing'an Marquis' residence and was surprised by Ren Anle's presence. Ren Anle found an excuse to leave.

Since the concubine selection banquet, Di Chengen couldn't hide her complacency, believing that the Crown Prince truly treated her differently. Mu Qing reminded Di Chengen that it was only because of the name Di Ziyuan, but Di Chengen didn't care and even refused to pay respects at Jing'an Marquis' residence, firmly convinced that she would be the one ultimately chosen by the Crown Prince.

Princess An Ning saw Han Ye visiting Jing'an Marquis' residence alone and felt somewhat disappointed. She understood that he was protecting Di Chengen to secure her position as the Crown Princess. Han Ye hoped An Ning wouldn't blame Di Chengen for this, but An Ning felt a sense of desolation for the entire Di family. Her father, Di Yongning, was a heroic figure, but in the end, he couldn't even receive respect from his daughter. Both siblings felt guilty about the Di family's affairs. An Ning mentioned her encounter with Ren Anle, wondering if she would live so freely and openly if Di Ziyuan hadn't been sent to Daishan.

Ren Anle confessed to Luo Mingxi that she had fallen in love with Han Ye, but compared to the 80,000 souls of the Di family, their feelings were insignificant. She wouldn't let herself continue to sink and must rediscover her true self. Luo Mingxi informed Ren Anle that Gu Yunnian was searching for someone named Zhong Hai, who was a survivor of the Di family.

Han Ye personally visited Di Chengen and unexpectedly found no scars on her shoulders from the character that had been written there before. This made him anxious and suspicious about her identity, so he secretly investigated the truth. At the same time, Luo Mingxi revealed to Ren Anle that Di Chengen had shown a flaw. Ren Anle was surprised that he remembered something she had forgotten so clearly.
