Episode 4

Yue Ling, disguised as an oiran, danced awkwardly between the two officials who were whispering.She stumbled deliberately and fell deftly next to an officer.While the other party was helping her to stand up, she skillfully took away the account book from the other party's sleeve, then smiled apologetically and left.

At this time, a noble lady angrily broke into Fengyue Pavilion, mistaking Yue Ling for a seductive woman who seduced her husband, and held her tightly, demanding an apology from her.Yue Ling was anxious, worried that the stolen ledger would be exposed.The lady became more and more excited, her voice became louder and louder, and she almost pushed Yue Ling to the ground.

At this moment, Zhou Shiyu appeared in time and firmly supported Yue Ling who was about to fall.Yue Ling was so anxious that she lied that Zhou Shiyu was her husband to dispel the lady's doubts.Zhou Shiyu also followed the trend and showed his affection for Yue Ling.The lady then realized that she had found the wrong person and left angrily.

Returning to the main hall, Yue Ling saw Xing Yi staring at Su Nian with burning eyes.She gently reminded Xingyi to pay attention to his words and deeds, but Xingyi loudly declared that Su Nian was a female killer on the way to get married.The old bustard hurriedly defended Su Nian, and Su Nian proved his innocence.Yue Ling had no choice but to dissuade Xing Yi again.

Later, Su Nian toasted to the South King and the North King.Zhou Zhixuan was so excited when he saw the beauty that he accidentally knocked over his wine glass.Originally, he planned to use throwing a cup as a sign to have the assassin pretend to assassinate him, thereby framing Zhou Shiyu.But the plan goes awry and the assassins act prematurely.An assassin was simple-minded and only knew how to circle around Zhou Zhixuan. Just when he was about to succeed, Zhou Shiyu stepped forward and blocked an arrow for Zhou Zhixuan.Fengyue Pavilion suddenly fell into chaos.

In order to clear the suspicion, Su Nian asked Xingyi for help.Yue Ling arranged for Xingyi to protect Su Nian.Xingyi was suspicious of Su Nian and covered half of her face with his hands, becoming more convinced of his guess.Yue Ling decided to sacrifice himself and revive Zhou Shiyu through the jade pendant.Xingyi didn't know why, so he pulled Yue Ling and left Fengyue Pavilion in a hurry.

Zhou Zhixuan was furious. He originally wanted to frame Zhou Shiyu, but was upstaged by Zhou Shiyu.The prime minister was very satisfied with this and believed that the differences between the Southern and Northern Kings were a good opportunity for them to check and balance the Emperor.Yue Ling regretted not being able to save Zhou Shiyu and decided to find an opportunity to sneak into the Beiwang Mansion to visit.However, it was not appropriate for an unmarried woman to enter the palace. Xingyi believed that the princess did not need to fully abide by Beishuo's rules, so the two jointly wrote a letter to the King of Beishuo.After Zhou Shiyu received the letter, he agreed to let Yue Ling enter the house to see him.Yue Ling talked to Zhou Shiyu across the screen and felt even more regretful when he learned that Wen Yu was dead.She asked Qianqian to prepare a brazier and burn paper money and salvation items for Wenyu.Just as she was mumbling something, Wen Yu suddenly appeared behind her, scaring her so much that she stepped back.
