Brother Si, under Su Wenchun’s orders, went to the prison to see Liu Mo one last time. Liu Mo was full of gratitude for Brother Si’s support since childhood, but he also understood that the man before him was the one who had killed his father. Now, they were no longer walking the same path—parting ways was inevitable. Earlier, His Majesty had personally come to the prison and revealed the truth behind Liu Mo’s father’s death.

After hearing it, Liu Mo took out Su Wenchun’s jade pendant, confessed everything, and handed over the evidence of Su Wenchun’s crimes. When Brother Si learned of Liu Mo’s betrayal, he attempted to kill him in prison, unaware that the Imperial Guards had already been lying in wait. He was immediately captured. Shortly afterward, Su Wenchun was also apprehended by the Imperial Guards. Ming Tingyuan’s long-standing grievance was finally redressed, and his name was cleared.

General Feng praised Ming Tan highly and sincerely apologized to Ming Tingyuan for failing to protect Ming Chu. He also revealed that he had divorced Feng Xulin and stated that if she repented in the future, the Feng family doors would always be open to her. At this time, Zhui Ying presented an urgent report: Guo Bingmao had refused the summons to return to the capital and was suspected of rebellion.

Ming Tingyuan didn’t believe Guo Bingmao had the courage to do so and concluded that he must have been incited by Su Wenchun. Jiang Xu received orders to suppress the rebellion. Before departing, he entrusted Ming Tan to the Ming family, hoping they could ensure her safety. Meanwhile, Guo Bingmao’s troops launched a large-scale assault, while the forces of the General of Dingbei were far outnumbered. Ming Tingyuan resolved to lead the Ming family’s army personally into battle.

Though Shu Jingran tried to persuade him otherwise, Ming Tingyuan’s decision was firm. The next day, Wen Zong predicted that Jiang Xu would leave immediately upon receiving the emergency report, so he ordered his troops to head straight to Lingzhou that very night, hoping to seize the city amid the chaos. Shu Jingran and Yun Yi escorted Ming Tan to Shanxi.

Looking at the bustling streets, Shu Jingran was filled with regret, fearing that this place would soon be soaked in blood. Before he could finish speaking, a group of rebels stormed into the city. Shockingly, General Feng was hung on the city wall by the rebels. Witnessing this, Feng Xulin was distraught. She couldn’t watch her father die and was also worried for Ming Tan’s safety, so she resolved to rise up in resistance to protect them.

At this moment, Wen Zong, the prince of Nanlü, led his soldiers into the city, seized control, and took Ming Tan hostage. Zhang Huaiyu, upon receiving Jiang Xu’s secret report, was tasked with finding a way to get the information into the palace. He used the excuse of visiting his sister, the Empress, but was stopped by palace guards—even he couldn’t get in, which showed just how tense things had become.

Afterward, he and Bai Minmin discussed the matter, and Bai Minmin had a sudden idea. That night, Zhang Huaiyu sneaked into the palace and successfully met with his sister. Meanwhile, Liu Mo was rescued from prison by a mysterious group. The Emperor, upon hearing of Liu Mo’s escape, suspected Su Wenchun had begun to act and ordered tighter security. A group entered the palace under the pretense of changing the guard, carrying tokens of authority.

But Zhang Huaiyu had long been lying in wait, recognized their false identities at a glance, and killed them on the spot. Wen Zong planned to use Ming Tan to threaten Jiang Xu and even offered to release the citizens of Lingzhou if she would go with him to Nanlü. Ming Tan had no choice but to agree in order to save the people, though her heart was filled with resentment and humiliation.

That night, Wen Zong brought Ming Tan to the city wall, reminiscing about their past. He had planned each step carefully, manipulating the Su family into his trap. Wen Zong truly liked Ming Tan and promised not to harm the people of Lingzhou, even offering to make her his princess consort in Nanlü. But Ming Tan was already a married woman—how could she marry another?

At that moment, Ming Tingyuan, disguised as a Nanlü commander, opened the city gates in an attempt to rescue his daughter. Ming Tan, however, was filled with worry for her father’s safety.
