One day, while Liu Miantang was busy beside the pharmacy, she suddenly received terrible news: a small team scouting the enemy had met with disaster, with dozens of casualties. Liu Miantang recognized the name of the team as one that Cui Xingzhou had mentioned before. Overcome with fear, she hurried back into her room and locked the door, her mind filled with images of Cui Xingzhou. She prayed repeatedly that nothing had happened to him.

Before long, Liu Miantang heard a familiar set of footsteps—it was her husband! She opened the door to find Cui Xingzhou standing there, and tears instantly rolled down her cheeks. Heaven had indeed protected him; Cui Xingzhou had returned safely. The two embraced each other, and after experiencing a brush with death, their bond deepened even further. Shi Xueji, following her mother’s instructions, went out to buy jewelry.

She wasn’t in a hurry and decided to stop at a shop to get something to eat. The shop assistant recommended a dish called “Xi Shi Tongue,” but Shi Xueji wasn’t interested and ordered a large pork knuckle instead. Not long after, Lu Wen also came in to eat. Shi Xueji initially wanted to hide what she had ordered, but the shop assistant brought the dish directly to her table. Lu Wen understood the situation.

He hadn’t just happened to pass by; he had come specifically to meet Shi Xueji, intending to marry her as soon as possible to achieve his goals. He sat down and dismissed his attendants, then began eating heartily. Seeing Lu Wen’s casual demeanor and lack of pretense, Shi Xueji couldn’t help but warm up to him. She casually asked if he was skilled in chess, as she wanted to learn.

Lu Wen thought back to when he had personally taught Liu Miantang how to play chess, believing they would be together for a long time. However, so much had happened since then. He had no intention of teaching another woman and instead claimed that while he could play chess, he was not proficient at teaching it. Liu Miantang accidentally discovered a herb called "Gui Tian Gen," a plant in the area.

When dried grass soaked in this herb was eaten by animals, it caused weakness in their limbs and mental confusion. Liu Miantang immediately took the nanny with her to gather a large amount of the herb. When she next saw Cui Xingzhou, she told him about the plant’s properties. Since the enemy’s Rong troops were all cavalry, if their horses consumed the herb, it would greatly reduce the effort needed by their own forces.

Liu Miantang urged Cui Xingzhou to report this to the Prince of Huaiyang. Cui Xingzhou devised a plan and deliberately pretended to lose some grain supplies, then embarrassingly retrieved them. The enemy, believing they had gained the upper hand, tested the grain and found it non-toxic, then fed it to their horses. That night, Cui Xingzhou led his troops in a surprise attack. The enemy’s horses were slow to move, and the Prince of Huaiyang won a decisive victory!

Upon returning from the front lines, Cui Xingzhou met Liu Miantang, and their eyes filled with deep affection as they embraced. Suddenly, Cui Xingzhou collapsed. Zhao Quan diagnosed him with exhaustion and, with the battle over, advised Cui Xingzhou to rest well. Liu Miantang had been overworked, causing an old hand injury to flare up again. Cui Xingzhou asked Zhao Quan for advice.

When they first rescued Liu Miantang, they had discovered that her hand tendons had been severed, and the injury had yet to heal. Zhao Quan suggested that Cui Xingzhou take her to soak in a hot spring, as the warm water could help relax her muscles and tendons, speeding up her recovery. Cui Xingzhou thought this was a good idea and, on a clear day, took Liu Miantang to the hot springs.

The water in the hot spring was warm and clear. Liu Miantang invited Cui Xingzhou to join her in the water, but Cui Xingzhou, thinking about the truth he had yet to tell her and not wanting to take advantage of the situation, declined her invitation, saying he didn’t want to disrupt the morale of the troops.
