In the middle of the night, the Crown Prince tossed and turned, unable to sleep. He kept feeling that someone nearby wanted to steal the Tiger Tally. Although it remained intact, at the Crown Princess's suggestion, he decided to take it to the Ziguai Villa and entrust it to Sun Sheng. Unexpectedly, the Tiger Tally was lost on the way.
Upon hearing the news, Ling Buyi was furious, stating that he had long said Sun Sheng was unfit for responsibility, but the Crown Prince never listened and insisted on favoritism. Now, even though the Crown Prince recognized his mistake, with the army about to depart on a bandit suppression campaign, he had no idea how to deal with the missing Tiger Tally and had no choice but to seek Ling Buyi's help.
Ling Buyi mentioned the opinions of General Wang and Grand Tutor Lou. The Crown Prince bluntly said that General Wang feigned illness and avoided appearing, and Grand Tutor Lou advised him to shift the blame to the Empress. However, as a son, he could never do such a thing. To prevent Ling Buyi from digging deeper and to secure his help for the Crown Prince, the Crown Princess privately sent someone to inform Cheng Shaoshang.
Cheng Shaoshang was still upset with Ling Buyi, but Lianfang, seeing things clearly as an outsider, remarked that even though Ling Buyi's reputation was unmatched and no one in the capital dared oppose him, Cheng Shaoshang still acted willfully due to his affection. Just before Cheng Shaoshang arrived, the Crown Princess used the excuse of serving tea to flatter Ling Buyi for being favored by His Majesty while subtly conveying the difficulties she and the Crown Prince faced.
Ling Buyi saw through her ploy and proposed she go personally to confess to Emperor Wen. As expected, the Crown Princess hesitated and stammered. Though she appeared willing to do anything for the Crown Prince, when the critical moment arrived, she would always back down. Coincidentally, Cheng Shaoshang arrived outside the Eastern Palace and overheard Ling Buyi’s words, mistakenly thinking he was asking the Crown Princess to take the blame. She immediately stepped in to defend her.
Ling Buyi suppressed his temper and asked her to leave first. Seeing his sour expression, the Crown Princess took Cheng Shaoshang outside, trying to manipulate her by appealing to her sympathy under the guise of kindness. At that moment, Ling Buyi left alone. Cheng Shaoshang chased after him in anger and decided to return to the Cheng residence by herself. Ling Buyi quickly held her back, apologized with humility, and explained that this matter was far-reaching.
He didn’t want her to be in danger and assured her he would handle it. When they arrived at Changqiu Palace, Cheng Shaoshang overheard the Empress and an old maid talking about the Crown Prince’s childhood, clearly sensing a parent’s deep concern for their child. Naturally, they didn’t want the Crown Prince to end up like past crown heirs. She ultimately decided to help him and forged a replica Tiger Tally.
On the day the army departed, Emperor Wen oversaw the send-off. The Crown Prince, in front of all the civil and military officials, handed the Tiger Tally to Wan Songbai. However, the Marquis of Xiaoyue suddenly raised a question: the Tiger Tally contained a magnetic mechanism that allowed it to merge, and he demanded an on-site test to verify its authenticity. Cheng Shaoshang was unaware of this and grew nervous.
To her surprise, Ling Buyi merged the tally smoothly, leaving the Marquis speechless. In fact, upon learning that Cheng Shaoshang intended to help the Crown Prince deceive others, Ling Buyi realized that if things were exposed, it would be a crime of deceiving the Emperor. He then decided to use the Tiger Tally from the Huo family.
The Liang brothers were reluctant to lend it, as it was a token personally granted to General Huo by Emperor Wen and the only remaining heirloom of the Huo family. Yet Ling Buyi was willing to pay any price for Cheng Shaoshang. Now, the Marquis of Xiaoban had come to propose marriage to Cheng Yang, and Wan Qiqi’s relationship with Cheng Song progressed rapidly. Only Cheng Shaoshang's feelings for Ling Buyi remained unclear.
Wan Qiqi believed Cheng Shaoshang had already fallen for him and urged her to recall whether she had felt truly happy with him. Cheng Shaoshang recounted every little thing she and Ling Buyi had experienced together. Wan Qiqi pointed out the key—Ling Buyi had protected Cheng Shaoshang with his life, not something that mere minor disagreements could erase. Hearing her words, Cheng Shaoshang had a sudden epiphany and rushed out to find Ling Buyi.
Unexpectedly, he was already waiting outside as always, which moved her deeply. Ling Buyi told Cheng Shaoshang she didn’t need to change, as the part of her he loved was exactly that bold and adorable side. Cheng Shaoshang confessed to him, saying she had two things to say. First, she would be good to him forever until he grew tired. Second, she promised to cherish him for life, until their hair turned white.
Ling Buyi was overjoyed and wished they had already been married. He then took Cheng Shaoshang to Xinghua Villa to introduce her to his mother. But before they entered, he especially reminded her not to speak up no matter what she saw; he would explain everything later. Huo Junhua still regarded Ling Buyi as a nephew coming to sponge off her. When she suddenly recalled her late brother, her emotions exploded, and she lunged at Cheng Shaoshang. To protect her, Ling Buyi let Huo Junhua bite his hand, which bled profusely. Cheng Shaoshang felt heartbroken.
