The matter of Cui Lin meeting the new emperor is still undecided. The Ministry of War claims that the Cui family's army is fighting on the frontlines, and Cui Lin, being considered Cui Yi's son, can represent him to meet the new emperor. However, the Ministry of Rites objects, stating that there is no precedent for this, and the Ministry of Revenue points out that the Cui family's army has not received provisions and military funds from them. Since the deduction from the tax revenues of Pingliang and Weiyang, this confusing account can't be clarified. Currently, even before Cui Lin sets foot in the palace, the six ministries are already in a heated dispute. Li Ni, on the other hand, believes that there have been precedents of women attending court meetings before. Given Cui Lin's mother's heroic status, she should be qualified to meet the emperor.

Gu Wanniang took the initiative to search for records from over sixty years ago, confirming Li Ni's words. From this, she also learned about Li Ni's deep affection for Cui Lin and advised Gu Wanniang to give up. However, Gu Wanniang felt that since there was no conclusion yet, their feelings were genuine. Still, given the uncertainties of life, perhaps she was the most suitable wife for Li Ni. Meanwhile, news of Cui Lin's scheduled audience with the emperor spread quickly, and Cui Lin knew that Li Ni had been running to the Ministry of Rites in the past few days, understanding his concern for her and couldn't help but smile.

On the day Cui Lin attended the court meeting, Li Ni got up early, cleaned himself up, and happily went to court. In the grand hall, Cui Lin represented her father for an audience, stating that during the rebellion of Sun Jing in Duyang and Luoyang, the Cui family's army temporarily took charge. Now that the world is pacified, the Cui family's army intends to immediately withdraw from Luoyang and return it to the court. Hearing this, the new emperor was delighted and planned to host a grand banquet for Cui Lin, both to express his commendation and to allow the capital's young ladies to appreciate her boldness.

On this day, Cui Lin deliberately wore women's clothing. Li Jun wanted to win Cui Lin's favor and always tried to be the first to talk to her. To make it livelier, the empress organized a colorful play. Li Jun took the opportunity to sit next to Cui Lin, trying to impress her. Li Ni, feeling unhappy, but unable to express it, reluctantly asked to go on stage and invited Li Jun as well. Li Jun felt awkward, knowing he was no match for Li Ni. If he agreed, the result could be predicted, but if he refused, he would be labeled as afraid. At this moment, Cui Lin proposed to partner with Li Jun, resolving the situation for him. On the other side, Gu Wanniang also volunteered to team up with Li Ni.

Although it was a four-person competition, gradually, Li Jun and Gu Wanniang became background figures, leaving only Li Ni and Cui Lin on the stage. Cui Lin and Li Ni simultaneously flew to the crossbar, competing for the colored ribbons. However, the two were evenly matched, and after a long time, no winner emerged. Unbeknownst to them, the curtains fell, enclosing them in a circle. Cui Lin took a step forward and lightly kissed Li Ni. Taking advantage of Li Ni's surprised state, Cui Lin then pushed him down, claiming victory. In the grand hall, Cui Lin presented the hairpin given by the empress, giving one to Li Ni and another to Gu Wanniang.

The empress admired Cui Lin's generosity and thoughtfulness, praising her for a long time. As the feast officially began, Li Ni felt restless and stood up to leave. Seeing this, Gu Wanniang also wanted to follow, but her path was blocked. On the other side, Cui Lin, noticing Li Ni standing up, also followed suit. Li Jun wanted to follow as well but was also blocked. Cui Lin thanked Li Ni, but he arrogantly said it was just for the country's sake. Watching Li Ni's serious demeanor, Cui Lin couldn't help but find it amusing.

After the banquet, Li Jun caught up with Cui Lin, wanting to escort her home. Cui Lin agreed and told him that she would go to Cien Temple the next day. Li Jun offered to accompany her, and Cui Lin agreed. This scene was coincidentally witnessed by Li Ni. The next day, Li Jun arrived at Cui Lin's place according to the agreement, only to find out that she had already left early. On the other side, Li Ni couldn't endure the wait and went out to find Cui Lin. Cui Lin was very happy, suggesting that they could forget about their identities and enjoy the day. Li Ni readily agreed, and together they went shopping, played, and went to Leyou Yuan to catch fish and enjoy the scenery.
