Shi Dachun gave his room for Shang Yizhi to stay in and kept asking about the Eldest Princess's recent situation. He regretted and felt guilty for not offering sacrifices when Marquis Sheng passed away. It sounded like he was very concerned about the Sheng family. Shang Yizhi immediately stated his purpose: he wanted to borrow some grain and forage.
Shi Dachun hesitated slightly, claiming that a major war was imminent, grain and forage control was very strict, and grain could only be allocated with the Emperor's verbal decree. Shang Yizhi's heart sank. He wanted to inform A Mai, but he suddenly remembered that if he told A Mai they couldn't gather grain and forage, A Mai would definitely not stay here anymore; she still needed to go to Northern Desert.
Xu Xiuer mistook A Mai for a man and secretly fell for her. How could A Mai not understand the young girl's feelings? But she had unspeakable difficulties, so she kept praising Tang Shaoyi. She even said that if she found a good man like Tang Shaoyi, she would never have to worry about food and drink in the future, and Tang Shaoyi would take good care of her.
Xu Xiuer became unhappy and put the foot basin down heavily on the ground. A Mai saw that gentle persuasion wasn't working and had to cut the Gordian knot quickly. She immediately stated in front of Xu Xiuer that she didn't like girls of her type, instead, she was very fond of the singing girls and courtesans in the brothels. This made Xu Xiuer so angry that she slapped her directly and left in a huff.
A Mai saw Shang Yizhi come but after only a couple of perfunctory sentences, he wanted to leave, so she guessed there must be something difficult to say. Shang Yizhi said that it was his first time discussing borrowing grain and forage with Shi Dachun; the other party didn't agree easily, but they still had a chance. They could only wait here for a moment. Early in the morning, A Mai lay lazily on the bed, stretching.
Opening her eyes, she suddenly saw Tang Shaoyi sitting on her bed, which startled her. Tang Shaoyi didn't know at all that A Mai was a woman; he thought they were just sworn brothers. Hearing that A Mai needed to urinate, he immediately handed her the chamber pot next to the bed and even casually invited A Mai to take care of it on the bed. A Mai stammered that she was sick.
Only then did she manage to trick Tang Shaoyi out of the room. Tang Shaoyi took A Mai to see a spirited horse he had taken a liking to. Its temperament and appearance were excellent. A Mai also thought it was a good horse. Hearing that Tang Shaoyi just didn't have enough money, she immediately took out all her silver to help Tang Shaoyi buy the horse. Shang Yizhi came looking for A Mai.
Hearing that A Mai had gone out with Tang Shaoyi early in the morning, he felt very uncomfortable. Xu Xiuer also described how Tang Shaoyi was not only tall and handsome but also chivalrous and of noble character. Shang Yizhi began to feel extremely jealous; he was afraid that Tang Shaoyi would get there first. Finally, A Mai returned. She excitedly said that she had just gone out riding horses with Tang Shaoyi, and it was very pleasant.
They hadn't seen each other for a long time, and Tang Shaoyi had missed her especially. Shi Dachun's wife took a liking to Xu Xiuer's docility and intelligence, so she adopted her as a foster daughter. Xu Xiuer packed her things and moved into Madam Shi's residence. But before leaving, she told A Mai and Shang Yizhi that the Crown Prince's advisor had found his way to Yuzhou and had met with Shi Dachun several times privately.
It seemed like they had some secret scheme. Shang Yizhi was secretly surprised and had a premonition of crisis. Not long after, Shi Dachun and the Crown Prince's advisor brought people to arrest Shang Yizhi, listed Shang Yizhi's crimes, and then escorted him to prison. Although Shi Dachun was unwilling to lend grain and forage, Shang Yizhi's father had saved Shi Dachun's life, and Shi Dachun would not collude with the Crown Prince.
But awed by the Crown Prince's authority, Shi Dachun had no choice but to lock Shang Yizhi up first and then consider his options later. Late at night, A Mai came to the prison to see Shang Yizhi and discussed her plan with him. Soon there would be a martial arts competition where the Qingzhou army and the Yuzhou army would compete. At that time, they would wait for an opportunity to escape.
Shi Dachun and the Crown Prince's advisor suggested that in the martial arts competition between the two sides, the Qingzhou army would surely lose. Without a backer, Shang Yizhi would be forced to commit suicide under pressure. This way, the Eldest Princess would not blame them.
