Han Ye married Di Chengen solely to protect Ren Anle, but he was unwilling and could only drown his sorrows in alcohol. Wen Shuo and Ji Li waited outside, realizing that Han Ye and Ren Anle could never return to the past. They lamented the loss of this fate and the capriciousness of life, as things had changed while people had not.

Ren Anle prepared a list of the names of the eighty thousand soldiers of the Di family's army as a birthday gift. According to the royal rules, gifts for the Empress Dowager and the Emperor's birthday should be submitted to the palace in advance. Yuan Qin straightforwardly stated that the Empress Dowager couldn't bear such a grand gift. On the other hand, the Empress Dowager summoned Di Chengen alone and gave her an educational lecture, warning her to be well-behaved and even kneel in the ancestral hall to copy all the scriptures.

Lin Lang was tasked with finding Zhang Jian, a former general of the loyal and righteous Marquis, hoping he would testify. Zhang Jian already felt guilty towards the Di family's army and, with a clear conscience, finally agreed to help clear the Di family's name. Late at night, Ren Anle went to see Han Ye and gave him a folding fan as a congratulatory gift for his wedding with Di Chengen.

Han Ye speculated that Ren Anle would take action on the wedding day and tried to dissuade her, but she stated that she lived her life for the Di family. Han Ye had nothing more to say. After Ren Anle left, Han Ye opened the folding fan, looking at the familiar handwriting and feeling a mix of emotions. Luo Mingxi had been waiting for Ren Anle at the door and, from this day on, they would be themselves again.

As scheduled, the Empress Dowager's birthday banquet was held in grandeur, and the Crown Princess of Da Jing would also be appointed. Han Ye attended the banquet dressed in fine clothes, carrying the folding fan given to him by Ren Anle. Before entering the palace, Ren Anle personally lit incense for her father's tablet. Between her and Han Ye stood the lives of eighty thousand people, destined not to be together. At the same time, Luo Mingxi prepared his birthday gift and was ready to depart. Today's banquet would be the most lively one in Da Jing's history.

During the banquet, Di Chengen took the initiative to wish the Empress Dowager a happy birthday and offered to bear the responsibility for the Di family's sins. Just as she finished speaking, a voice from outside the door exclaimed, "The Di family is innocent!" It was Zhong Hai, who revealed the identity of the Di family's former members. When the Di family's army received the order for reinforcements, they rushed thousands of miles day and night to Qingnan Mountain. Little did they know that the Northern Qin army had already laid an ambush, forcing them to flee back to support through the narrow pass of Qingnan City. However, as soon as they passed the pass, they were ambushed by the guards of Qingnan City, and the eighty thousand Di family's soldiers suffered heavy casualties.

Upon hearing this, everyone present was in an uproar. Right Minister Wei Jian felt that there was something suspicious about this matter and that the old case of the Di family should be thoroughly investigated. However, Left Minister Jiang Yu held a different view, stating that Zhong Hai's words were just one-sided and lacked evidence. Zhong Hai requested another witness, Zhang Jian, who tearfully recounted the dust of the Di family's army from ten years ago. Later, when he returned to the capital to investigate, he learned that Gu Yunnian had received a secret letter from the capital. It was this letter that led him to carry out the massacre of the Di family's army.

In fact, at the beginning, Zhang Jian did not know that these people were the Di family's army, as Gu Yunnian had falsely claimed to be the Northern Qin army. It was only when they cleared the battlefield and saw the armor of the Di family's army that he realized it. Zhang Jian was emotional at the banquet, feeling guilty towards the eighty thousand Di family's soldiers. Han Ye suddenly stood up and bombarded Zhang Jian with a series of questions, asking him to prove how he determined whether the Di family's army conspired with the Northern Qin and was killed, or whether they fell into the trap of Northern Qin after entering the northwest.

However, Zhang Jian could not clarify either of the two situations and struggled to give a clear answer. Han Ye continued to question, suggesting that even if the Di family's army was killed by mistake, it could be because Gu Yunnian mistakenly believed that the Northern Qin cavalry intended to attack the city, so he led the soldiers into battle, resulting in the mistaken killing of the Di family's army. Han Ye's suspicions fueled the Empress Dowager's arrogance, and she sought to use her position to suppress this case unfavorable to her. But Han Zhongyuan believed that they could bring Gu Yunnian for cross-examination to determine the truth.
