Tu Shanjing was worried and couldn't sleep even late at night.Jingye, his personal maid, came worriedly to persuade him to rest early.He noticed tears in Jingye's eyes, and after questioning, he remembered that today was the death anniversary of his sister-in-law Lan Mei.Tu Shanjing recalled that Jing Ye, Lan Mei, Lu Yu and Lan Xiang grew up together and had deep feelings.However, time has passed, Lan Mei and Lu Yu have passed away one after another, Lan Xiang has also left, and now only Jing Ye is left.Jing Ye told him that Lv Yuan became ill because she blamed herself for Lan Mei's death, and eventually died of illness.Tu Shanjing felt uneasy in his heart. Recalling Lan Mei's hesitant expression at his mother's funeral, he began to doubt the identity of his heir.So, he decided to rush back to Qingqiu the next day to find out the truth.

Tu Shanjing obtained the blood of his son Tu Shanqi in Qingqiu and conducted a blood test, but the results only proved that they were close relatives, and did not clarify whether they were father and son, brother or nephew.This result made him even more confused, but he decided to keep pursuing it.

At the critical moment when Xuanxuan was choosing the queen, he only had Xiaoyao in his heart.However, he knew that he could not force Xiaoyao, so he discussed the matter with her and grandpa.Grandpa advocates marriage with the Chenrong clan, believing that only in this way can Xi Yan's empire be stabilized.But Xiaoyao firmly opposed it, she only wanted to consider A-Nian.Xuanxuan felt mixed emotions in her heart. She was saddened by Xiaoyao's rejection, but also moved by her thoughtfulness.In the end, he chose the overall situation and made Xinyue the queen.

A Nian was heartbroken after hearing the news, but she believed that her grandfather would solve the problem for her.She decided to leave the Purple Gold Palace and return to the Five Gods Mountain.Xiaoyao also decided to accompany her back to visit her father.Xuanxuan said goodbye to Xiaoyao reluctantly. He looked at her back, his heart full of helplessness and sadness.

Xinyue became the queen as she wished, but her dream did not come true.On their wedding night, Xuanxuan would rather take a walk in the Phoenix Forest than spend the night with her.In anger, Xinyue wanted to throw away Xingxuan's reward, but was dissuaded by the maid.She knew that she could not let the concubines in the harem see the joke, otherwise her status would be in jeopardy.
