Although Liu Rong pretended to be asleep while fully clothed, seemingly flawless, Xu Muchen's doubts about her did not lessen. He tentatively asked her why she was sweating profusely. Liu Rong hurriedly made up an excuse, claiming she had a nightmare in which Xu Muchen wanted to divorce her. Hearing this, a wave of guilt welled up in Xu Muchen's heart.

To successfully send out the map, Su Jinning cleverly wrapped it in intestines and swallowed it, successfully deceiving Gongyang Maocai, who was responsible for searching people at the city gate. Given that the map concerned the nation's safety, Su Jinning was hesitant. He recalled his father's instructions and thought of his sister's safety in a foreign land, finally making a decision. Minister Gu was knocked unconscious by the Willow Leaf Thief.

After waking up, he complained repeatedly and was still shaken. On the other hand, Liu Rong found a letter in her wardrobe, which arranged for her to meet someone outside the city at midnight. Liu Rong decided to go to the appointment herself. Unexpectedly, the person who arrived was Xu Muchen, dressed in official attire. It turned out that Xu Muchen had always harbored doubts about Liu Rong and had never stopped investigating her.

Facing Xu Muchen, Liu Rong understood that her identity had been exposed, so she simply stopped hiding it. Liu Rong proactively suggested leaving the Xu residence and asked Xu Muchen to find a suitable excuse to appease Madam Xu so that she wouldn't be sad. However, to Liu Rong's surprise, Xu Muchen suddenly hugged her tightly, stating firmly that whether Liu Rong was the Willow Leaf Thief or the Duke's daughter, she was his lawfully wedded wife.

After this incident, the two were honest with each other, and their relationship deepened. On the other side, Gongyang Maocai came to the embroidery workshop to visit Qin Mumu. He happened to see a strange man acting intimately with her in the room, which made him intensely jealous, and he mistakenly thought Qin Mumu's heart belonged to someone else. After Gongyang Maocai left, Mo Yan reminded Qin Mumu to cherish the person before her.

Hearing this, a strange feeling also arose in Qin Mumu's heart. That night, Gongyang Maocai wandered the streets alone. Seeing couples walking hand-in-hand around him, he couldn't hide his disappointment. But the next second, Qin Mumu appeared before him, filling Gongyang Maocai with surprise and joy. The two walked together. Gongyang Maocai accompanied Qin Mumu to buy many flower lanterns. The misunderstanding was resolved at this moment, and they deeply understood their mutual affection for each other.

Su Houde was greatly angered by not obtaining the jade pendant and crucial evidence. He severely reprimanded Yu Luo Cha's disciples for being ineffective and reminded her that it was time to clean house. Early the next morning, Hu Shanshan, the only survivor of the Hu residence, found Xu Muchen through Liu Wenchu. She recounted the incident to him and revealed that she held a ledger that her father had treasured.

However, Hu Shanshan was ambushed on her way back to the inn. Fortunately, Xu Muchen intervened in time and saved her. To ensure her safety, he decided to bring her back to the Xu residence and promised to investigate the truth, ensuring he would not fail the Hu family's kindness. Coincidentally, these words were overheard by Wu Zhao, who mistakenly thought that Hu Shanshan was entrusting her future to Xu Muchen.

Consequently, the rumor spread to Xiao Qiu, who then embellished it by claiming Xu Muchen was taking a concubine. Upon hearing this, Liu Rong became unhappy, especially witnessing Xu Muchen return with Hu Shanshan, which seemed to confirm the rumor of him taking a concubine. Therefore, Liu Rong resolved to seek fairness from Madam Xu. Madam Xu naturally opposed her son taking a concubine.

So, when she learned that Hu Shanshan would be staying at the Xu residence, she declined with various excuses, but Xu Muchen still insisted and arranged a temporary stay for Hu Shanshan in the backyard wing room. Watching Liu Rong leave angrily, Madam Xu was worried, fearing that the young couple would have a conflict because of this. She then reminded Xu Muchen to explain clearly to Liu Rong as soon as possible.

After much deliberation, Liu Rong still left the door open for Xu Muchen. However, Xu Muchen did not return all night. He stayed in Hu Shanshan's room, focusing on studying the box where the ledger was kept. It wasn't until dawn that he successfully unlocked the mechanism and opened the box. Afterwards, Xu Muchen presented the ledger to Liu Wenchu. The ledger's surface seemed ordinary, and Liu Wenchu also could not see the hidden mysteries within it.

Just as he was confused, a thought flashed through Xu Muchen's mind. He recalled that his father once had a type of liquid that could make writing disappear. He then tried placing the blank page at the back of the ledger over candlelight to bake it. Indeed, the hidden text gradually appeared: "Duke Su colluded with the enemy and committed treason. Evidence is hidden in Taizhou.
