Yin Song went to the palace to bid farewell to his mother—perhaps this goodbye would be forever. Lady Chuan felt deep sorrow for her son and said she would send him some money later. But Yin Song refused. Now a commoner, he wanted to make a living with his own hands. The Tenth Prince stood by, unable to hold back his tears.

Yin Song urged him not to follow his own path again and to stay in line while taking good care of their mother. Seeing Yin Song walk farther away, Lady Chuan could no longer care about appearances and hurried after him, calling, "Song'er! " Yin Song turned and knelt in salute to her. The Lord had someone deliver a bundle to Yin Song, but he did not accept it.

Upon hearing this, the Lord felt a mix of emotions—sad that their father-son bond was gone, but also comforted by Yin Song's upright character. Now the situation in court had shifted. Those who once clamored to impeach Yin Zheng now praised him for his virtue. Once a negligible presence in the palace of the Princes, Yin Zheng had become someone everyone noticed overnight. Some even said he was fit to be the heir.

Lord Xinchuan acknowledged that Yin Zheng was a good son, but in the palace, there were too few moments for a father to show kindness and a son to show filial piety. The maid found Yuan Ying very strange that day. Though she was always ambitious, she hadn't slept the entire previous night. Early in the morning, she had walked through the garden, cleaned the entire residence, and given everyone many instructions.

Li Wei immediately sensed something was wrong and rushed to find Yuan Ying. At that moment, Yuan Ying was at the restaurant, carefully arranging everything. Li Wei, eyes red, rushed in from outside, but seeing Yuan Ying, she suddenly didn't know what to do. Yuan Ying was not surprised to see her and urged her to come help tidy up. Only then did Li Wei ask if Yuan Ying was leaving.

Yuan Ying admitted that now that the situation had stabilized, she wanted to live her own life. At the palace, Yin Zheng and Lord Xinchuan were playing chess. Upon hearing that Yin Zheng intended to divorce Yuan Ying, Lord Xinchuan was furious and baffled, but had no choice but to agree. The next step was to convince Lord Jinchuan. Yuan Ying had six younger brothers—five illegitimate and all unruly. Yuan Xu was the legitimate eldest, but also the most troublesome.

Yuan Ying's mother always cared for her, but was soft-spoken and had no voice in front of Lord Jinchuan, who was forceful and conservative, especially regarding the marriage of his children—he would be the hardest to persuade. Yin Zheng suddenly thought that since Jinchuan valued profit, perhaps they could persuade Lord Jinchuan by offering to reduce taxes. In Jinchuan Palace, Yuan Xu had ministers implementing reforms. But Yuan Ying suddenly appeared and scolded him harshly.

In the main hall, Yuan Ying was about to propose divorce, but was interrupted by Lady Jinchuan. Later, Yin Zheng had to negotiate with Lord Jinchuan alone. Unexpectedly, Lord Jinchuan was furious and outright refused to allow the divorce. Yuan Ying tried to speak further but was placed under house arrest by Lord Jinchuan. Li Wei prepared many delicious dishes to send to Yuan Ying but was stopped by the guards.

Fortunately, Lady Jinchuan passed by and delivered them for her. At that time, Yuan Ying was drafting a memorial. When her mother entered, she hurriedly hid the document. Sensing something unusual, Lady Jinchuan took the draft. She admired Yuan Ying’s talent but still advised her to temper her sharpness. Yuan Ying was emotional and pleaded with her mother to help her this time. At the Danchuan border, Shangguan Jing heard a woman's cry for help and followed the voice.

Seeing injustice, she rescued a woman being beaten by her husband. But suddenly, several burly men with weapons rushed out. In no time, Shangguan Jing subdued them all, only to run into Yin Qi, who had arrived with soldiers.
