Lu Zheng and Xie Kengran followed the porter to the outside of Zuixian Building and saw him asking the waiter to deliver something to Li Dongfang, a hundred households who was transferred to Beijing for duty. At this time, Li Wu walked out of the restaurant and bumped into Li Dongfang. Unexpectedly, he was caught by Li Dongfang and had to return the invitation card to him. Li Wu left Zuixian Building, but Li Dongfang followed him. Lu Zheng wanted Li Dongfang to return home and took his place as a hundred households, so he followed Li Dongfang.

Li Wu realized that Li Dongfang was following him, so he hid in the bamboo forest and knocked him out with a brick. He found that Lu Zheng had followed him here too. Just as Li Wu was about to take action, Lu Zheng suddenly turned around and left. Li Wu dragged the unconscious Li Dongfang into the house and tied him up. He fooled an illiterate fortune teller into reading his invitation card and successfully learned about Li Dongfang’s identity. He planned to use his identity to enter Wang Kegong’s mansion.

The next day, Li Wu successfully entered Wang Kegong’s mansion using Li Dongfang’s invitation card. Lu Zheng mistook Li Wu for Li Dongfang and invited him into the room for a long talk. Through Lu Zheng’s words, Li Wu learned that Li Dongfang was also a Jin Yiwei and had a higher position than Lu Zheng, which made him very proud. Knowing that Lu Zheng was the adopted son of a commanding officer, Li Wu wanted to bribe Lu Zheng with money but he not only refused but also repeatedly asked about his purpose in Ying Tianfu and Wang Kegong’s mansion. Li Wu was frightened and expressed his willingness to leave immediately.

Within the Zhenfu Division, Qian Shi official lit incense in front of Song Heming’s memorial tablet. He couldn’t help but recall the scene ten years ago when Song Heming locked the secret of the crown prince in the Yu Ming Suo and then handed it over to him. Ten years later, Qian Shi official planned to hand over the Yu Ming Suo to the emperor. Turning around and seeing Commander Lu Yulin, he asked about Song Heming’s son Song Zhen’s whereabouts. Lu Yulin pretended not to be able to find the child and asked him to hand over the Yu Ming Suo to himself. Qian Shi official was surprised that Lu Yulin knew about Yu Ming Suo. It turned out that he had eavesdropped on their conversation ten years ago.

In Wang Chongxi’s mansion, Li Wu was attracted by Chen Gongzi holding a pile of gold and silver jewelry and stood aside. Lu Zheng asked Li Wu why he hadn’t returned to the north yet. Li Wu hoped that Lu Zheng would give him some money to make up for his losses. Lu Zheng said he would play two games with him. The two came to the table, and Li Wu explained his intentions. Wang Chongxi’s son Wang Chongxi happily let the two bet. After Lu Zheng placed his bet, Li Wu began to shake the dice and made Lu Zheng win alone. In several subsequent rounds, Lu Zheng won every time. At this time, Wang Chongxi suspected that they were cheating, so Li Wu asked for someone else to shake the dice and secretly took away a die in advance. While everyone was looking for the lost die, Li Wu happily took away part of the treasure on the table.

Li Wu quietly unlocked a door and walked into a room but accidentally discovered the Yu Ming Suo hidden in Song Heming’s memorial tablet while searching for jewelry. He put Yu Ming Suo in his arms and saw someone passing by outside the door, so he quickly hid in a box. A maid brought Shu Tang into the room, and the maid cried and begged Shu Tang not to kill her. Unexpectedly, Shu Tang only let her drink a pot of wine.

It started raining outside, and Lu Zheng accidentally walked to Qian Shi official’s room. Qian Shi official was pleasantly surprised to see Lu Zheng and asked him his name. He said that Lu Zheng looked a lot like his old friend, but when he heard that Lu Zheng’s father was Lu Yulin, he asked Lu Zheng to leave quickly.

In the room, Shu Tang locked the box and said that the maid would wake up in three days. She then left the room. Li Wu unlocked the box and planned to leave through a gap in the west courtyard wall with a lot of gold and silver jewelry. Unexpectedly, he ran into Lu Zheng and had to pretend that there were assassins. The two walked back to the mansion together and happened to see Shu Tang wearing night clothes. Lu Zheng fought with her and injured Shu Tang’s shoulder. Shu Tang fled when she realized she couldn’t win.

Li Wu wanted to leave quietly while the two were fighting but ran into Wang Chongxi halfway. Wang Chongxi asked the maid to take him back to his room and left with his servants. Just as Li Wu breathed a sigh of relief, he saw blood in the maid’s hand and realized that she was the black-clothed person who had fought with Lu Zheng earlier.
