For the sake of Jiang Yunqing's safety, Yue Chi planned to send her out of the imperial city, but Jiang Yunqing was unwilling, so he asked Ling'er to persuade her to leave. Ling'er insisted on leaving Qing'er sister because of her friendship with Jiang Yunqing. Ling'er had not returned to the palace for a long time, so Huo Jingheng took the initiative to come to the door. Ling'er misunderstood that Qing'er sister was interested in the emperor. The empress dowager summoned Jiang Yunqing and thought that she was just robbing the man under the guise. Yue Ling'er returned to Fengluan Palace.
Huo Jingheng came to taste her newly brewed wine and said that he had no idea about Jiang Yunqing. He admitted that he already had someone he liked, and was hinting at Yue Ling'er both openly and secretly.Jiang Yunqing was suffering from punishment and torture from Yi Qingyun because he failed to successfully alienate Huo Jingheng and the others.
