Li Xiao's subordinates investigated and found that the item came from western Yunnan. For many years, there has been only one buyer in the Central Plains, which is Yulian Pavilion. Li Xiao instructed them to go back for now. Shen Mengchui mentioned that this place is the top assassin organization, very formidable. Gu Rong thought it was likely orchestrated by Prince Duan since only someone with considerable influence could engage such an organization. She suspected that the day Li Xiao received the reply was arranged by Prince Duan.
A eunuch arrived to announce that there were bandits in Jingzhou, and Li Xiao was ordered to pacify them. If they thought Li Xiao was recently injured, someone would come to ask him to go, intending to make Li Xiao defy the imperial order, arousing the Emperor's suspicion. Li Xiao proposed going with Gu Rong, suggesting that their similar builds would allow him to wear a mask and fight in Li Xiao's stead, ensuring no one could recognize him.
Li Xiao disagreed, deeming it too dangerous. Shen Mengchui set up a test for Gu Rong, stating that if she passed, he would help persuade Li Xiao. Unexpectedly, Gu Rong quickly passed the three challenges, leaving Shen Mengchui feeling quite frustrated.
Shen Mengchui came to see Gu Rong, expressing concern that she would soon be going to battle, and he worried about her causing trouble for Li Xiao. Gu Rong said she was concerned about Shen Mengchui staying alone and feared something might happen. If Shen Mengchui decided to be with Li Xiao, she asked him to write to them.
