Lord Ying told the Empress Dowager that as the eldest prince, it was his duty to take on everything, and said that Hua Liuli did not want to compete, but the Crown Prince strongly recommended her. Hua Liuli went to see the Emperor and heard Master Du say that she was too weak to represent Jin Kingdom in negotiations, and only then did she know that the Crown Prince had nominated her for the position of foreign minister. She told the Emperor that she was indeed unable to do it, but the Emperor said that many of Jin Kingdom's officials were women and that Hua Liuli had inherited the courage of the Hua family, so she could try without worrying about winning or losing. After leaving court, Hua Liuli was not angry with the Crown Prince, thinking that he did not believe what she said and walked away quickly. Back at the Hua residence, Yan Wei exclaimed that it was supposed to be the Crown Prince, but now it was Hua Liuli. Hua Liuli felt that she still had a great advantage and thought it was better to rely on herself than leave her fate to others, so she decided to compete. The Crown Prince wanted to play chess with Pei Jihuai and asked him to keep an eye on Hua Liuli. However, Pei Jihuai said he was staring at Yan Wei and explained to the Crown Prince that if he wanted to know what his master was doing, he had to keep an eye on his maid. The Crown Prince thought he made sense.
Lord Ying told the Empress Dowager that as the eldest prince, it was his duty to take on everything, and Hua Liuli did not want to compete, but the Crown Prince strongly recommended her. He also said that Hua Liuli cried in court. The Empress Dowager thought Lord Ying was too honest.
When Yan Wei heard that Empress Dowager summoned Hua Liuli to the palace, she thought Empress Dowager wanted to deal with them. Hua Liuli pretended to be weak and wanted to delay, but she refused to go in. She had to be taken to Yan Wei's palace. On the way, the Crown Prince said that he could not let the Empress Dowager wait too long and asked Hua Liuli to ride with him. Hua Liuli was very nervous when she saw Empress Dowager, but Empress Dowager said that she was physically weak and let her stay in the side hall of Shoukang Palace. Hua Liuli could not refuse and had to stay. The Empress Dowager also said that she would help Hua Liuli adjust her body. Hua Liuli asked Yan Wei to go back to the Hua residence to pack her things, but Duan Jin said everything was ready. Hua Liuli realized that Empress Dowager had planned this for a long time and decided not to let her leave the palace. Official Tian and others talked about Hua Liuli being under house arrest by Empress Dowager, and they planned to help Lord Ying compete with Hua Liuli. The Empress Dowager told the Emperor that she wanted Hua Liuli to stay in the palace for a while, thinking that Hua Liuli had other intentions. The Crown Prince told Yun Han his concerns, but Yun Han thought that if Hua Liuli wanted to leave the palace, she would find a way.
In recent days, in the side hall of Shoukang Palace, Hua Liuli attracted many people from the palace to listen to her stories about traveling, and many people were fascinated by them. The Crown Prince also came to see her and teased her about being well taken care of in the palace. Hua Liuli complained that she couldn't go out and asked the Crown Prince to help her. The Crown Prince said that the more he helped her, the less interested he would be, and that he had even sent her many fabrics to please the Empress Dowager.
Meanwhile, Duan Jin asked the Crown Prince to visit Hua Liuli less often.
Hua Liuli, based on the Crown Prince's reminder, knew Empress Dowager's preferences and described the texture of each fabric to her. However, every time she got to the point, she pretended to be sick and went back. The second time, Empress Dowager asked her to choose accessories for the dark purple fabric, but she pretended to be sick again. On the third day, Empress Dowager was angry with her nonsense and asked her to leave. Hua Liuli presented a dark purple brocade to Empress Dowager, who allowed her to keep it. The Empress Dowager also gave the other fabrics to the palace maids.
One day, Hua Liuli woke up from a nightmare, which strengthened her determination to protect the Hua family. Consort Xian and Consort Lin enjoyed the flowers in the garden. Hua Liuli observed the painting of the Third Prince and praised it, even daring to ask him to paint one for her. She asked the Third Prince to give it to her and write his name on it.
Hua Liuli deliberately wore dark purple clothes and said that everyone liked her clothes, which made Empress Dowager very happy. After hearing Hua Liuli's explanation, the Empress Dowager also accepted the clothes made of several pieces of old cloth by Hua Liuli. The Third Prince, Ji Yuanhao, was a man of few words and loved to paint. After spending these few days together, Empress Dowager thought that Hua Liuli was cunning and wise, and wanted to match her with Lord Ying.
