Episode 2: Shen tide and Jiang use their plan to break the situation

When Xiao Huayong was playing with the late Emperor in the back garden when he was young, he accidentally ate poisonous cherries hidden by others. Although he was rescued by the Tai Hospital's efforts, he suffered from chronic physical weakness. Everyone in the capital rumored that he was a frail and sick man.This time he and his attendant Tianyuan returned to the capital. They saw merchants in the streets and alleys decorated with lights and colorful decorations in preparation for Princess Zhaoning who was about to enter the capital. However, the overwhelming rumors confirmed that the princess and the always frail prince were definitely not destined to meet.On the other side, Lie Wang Xiao Changying woke up in the guest room of the princess's mansion. Seeing that Shen Xihe did not come to visit immediately, he suspected that she was deliberately neglecting him and using hard-to-get tactics to manipulate people's hearts.

After Shen Xihe learned about it, he bluntly said that he was not as good as the other princes in terms of culture, Taoism and military skills. Xiao Changying was furious on the spot. It was not until he caught a glimpse of the shallow scar on her arm that she had been scratched by a knife blade while saving her last night that she was filled with guilt and speechless.Shen Xihe relied on the memories left by Gu Qingzhi to become familiar with the intricate situation in the court and the temperaments and methods of the princes. She secretly determined not to repeat the mistakes of the Gu family in her previous life, and she would have to make her own decisions in the future with this saved life.At this time, Xiao Changqing, the King of Letters, learned that the important evidence recording the secrets of the princes - the Rouge Record - had fallen into the hands of Shen Xihe, and immediately sent his dead men to secretly sneak into the princess's mansion to regain the object.

At the same time, Prince Xiao Huayong also deployed people to seize the opportunity. Both of them wanted to use this leverage to overthrow other opponents competing for the throne and seize the opportunity in the battle for the heir apparent.A group of dead soldiers disguised as bandits ambushed Shen Xihe on his way to Beijing, and suddenly rushed out of the interception vehicle.Xiao Huayong, who was hiding behind a tree in the distance, planned to immediately rescue him. Unexpectedly, Shen Xi and He had already known what was going to happen. They hid special poisonous smoke in the carriage in advance and waited for the bandits to rush up. They released all the smoke. When the bandits discovered that they had fallen into the trap, they immediately became confused and could only run away in confusion.
