Liu Chengfeng and Cui Lin had grown up together since childhood. In his eyes, Cui Lin was unlike any other woman in the world. From a young age, Cui Lin had treated him differently from everyone else. He had long held a fondness for Cui Lin but didn't know if she felt the same way about him. Hearing that Tao Zi had already found Cui Lin, he quickly drank a medicinal concoction, intending to continue forward, hoping to meet Cui Lin on her way back. On the other hand, Guo Zhi had led his army and was nearing the city of Wangzhou. Outnumbered and with few options, Pei Yuan planned to abandon the city and withdraw.

Struggling to reach the city, Cui Lin finally couldn't hold on any longer and fainted. Li Ni found a doctor for Cui Lin and personally brewed medicine for her. In her deep sleep, Cui Lin was drenched in sweat and caught in a nightmare. In her dream, at a young age, she was chased by a group of people, and her loved ones died one by one before her eyes. Her mother had to stay behind to deal with the attackers. Cui Lin cried out for her "mother" but couldn't grasp anything. Li Ni looked disdainful, but he didn't stop his actions, helping Cui Lin up and feeding her medicine. He did it smoothly, as if he had become the husband taking care of his wife. When Cui Lin woke up, she thought Li Ni was trying to harm her and attempted to injure him with a hidden weapon. Li Ni, without blinking an eye, dodged the projectile and continued to apply the medicine to Cui Lin's wound. Cui Lin felt a warm feeling in her heart, allowing Li Ni to apply the herbs to her injury.

During the night, the two finally sat down for an intimate conversation. Cui Lin openly expressed her regret for not being able to save the elderly couple. When she was a child, she had grown up on the border. One day, all the men in the city went to fight, and another group of enemies took advantage of the situation to attack the city. The women in the city, including Cui Lin, donned armor and picked up spears to defend their homes. Cui Lin's mother instructed her to crawl out of the well and escape, while she stayed behind to fight alongside the other women until the very end. When Cui Lin and her father returned to the city, they saw the corpses of those women hanging from the city walls, and blood flowing down the walls. From that moment on, Cui Lin remembered her mother's words: only by staying alive could she save more people.

As they journeyed, Cui Lin and Li Ni saw an increasing number of refugees, and they felt a deep sense of unease. They heard that the Western Army had been defeated, and Guo Zhi had once again occupied Wangzhou. The people couldn't help but lament, "In prosperity, the people suffer; in decline, the people suffer." Upon hearing these words, Li Ni didn't say much, but his face clearly showed his anxiety and worry. He bought candied fruits to please Cui Lin, hoping to capture Wangzhou together.

The lord of Wangzhou, Han Li, was a cunning and two-faced man who had long defied the imperial orders, colluding with the traitor Sun Jing. Han Li controlled only Wangzhou and Jianzhou, but these two cities were vital water routes for the transportation of grain and troops. Jianzhou was only about two hundred miles away from Wangzhou, and a fast horse could reach it in one night. The governor of Jianzhou recognized only the official seal, not the bearer, so as long as they captured Wangzhou and seized Han Li's seal, both cities would be in their hands.

Moreover, Han Li had recently had a son, and a celebration was approaching. They decided to use this opportunity to prepare a grand gift for him. The primary task was to infiltrate the celebration. Li Ni learned that Han Li's residence had recently hired a wet nurse, who had a blood sister known as Lady Xu. Lady Xu was known for setting up a stall to sell tofu and soy milk. So, they disguised themselves as a married couple and approached Lady Xu to gather information.

Cui Lin had hidden something in her belly and pretended to be pregnant, while Li Ni bought a piece of fine cloth. With this setup, they sat down at Lady Xu's soy milk stall. Cui Lin first praised Lady Xu's skills, drawing her attention. Lady Xu indeed noticed Cui Lin's belly and the cloth on the table, and she offered some advice as an experienced person. Cui Lin, sweet-tongued and clever, quickly became close to Lady Xu and extracted a lot of information. Han Li's grandson had recently suffered from an illness that hadn't completely healed yet. So, Han's residence was certain to have a doctor visiting soon. Coincidentally, Cui Lin had some knowledge of medicine.
