Jiang Xuening offered her bed to the wounded Xie Wei, but he declined. When he sensed that a guard outside was spying for Prince Pingnan, he jumped onto the bed and pinned Jiang Xuening under him—Prince Pingnan wouldn’t believe there was nothing between them. As long as he believed Xie Wei was obsessed with Jiang Xuening, they’d be safe. Xie Wei asked Jiang Xuening to act the part. She made intimate sounds, and Prince Pingnan, hearing this, was reassured.

Jiang Xuening and Xie Wei slept on the same bed. Jiang Xuening covered her face, embarrassed. When news came that the Yan family had raised arms, Prince Pingnan was delighted. Meanwhile, chaos broke out in the capital due to Xie Wei’s actions. Duke Xue requested to suppress the rebellion, but Gu Chunfang suggested sending someone to negotiate. The emperor sent Zhang Zhe to the front to question Xie Wei’s rebellion. Duke Xue went to the Empress Dowager for help.

However, the emperor had grown wary of her. The Dowager could do nothing. Duke Xue claimed that only if Prince Linzi ascended the throne would the Xue family remain unshaken. Xie Wei asked Prince Pingnan to host a festival, assigning Xue Dingfei to organize it. Prince Pingnan gladly agreed. Receiving Xie Wei’s letter, Lü Xian and the Yan family scrutinized it and discovered the hidden message: “On Dragon Boat Festival, capture Pingnan.

” Xie Wei told Jiang Xuening to hide and not emerge no matter what she heard. He gave her his knife for protection, promising to bring her home safely. That night, Jiang Xuening asked why he hadn’t questioned what she meant by “What if you killed me? ” Xie Wei didn’t want to know. Secrets didn’t matter to him.

She then asked—when she learned his secret on their journey to the capital years ago, had he ever thought of killing her? He hadn’t. Because she saved him. He never forgot that she never abandoned him. At the Dragon Boat Festival banquet, Prince Pingnan drank heartily, unaware the food and wine had been drugged by Xue Dingfei. Suddenly, he ordered Jiang Xuening brought forth, accusing her of causing the Tongzhou incident and declaring she must be sacrificed.

Xie Wei intervened, but Prince Pingnan insisted he sever Jiang Xuening’s hand and their ties. He already suspected Xie Wei, and this was a warning. Without hesitation, Xie Wei chose to cut off his own hand. When Jiang Xuening saw him stab his left hand, she was overwhelmed with sorrow. She could never repay him. But for Xie Wei, nothing in the world compared to Jiang Xuening. Yan Lin arrived with soldiers.

Prince Pingnan and his men, weakened by the drug, were powerless. Still, he tried to attack. Xie Wei shielded Jiang Xuening. He carried not only Xue family blood but also Yan family loyalty. With such a heritage, he could never be a traitor. In the end, as Prince Pingnan raised his blade, Jiang Xuening stabbed him again. Soon, Yan Lin arrived. Xie Wei was gravely wounded, and Jiang Xuening was beside herself with worry.

Yan Lin told her Xie Wei had anticipated this outcome and had ordered Xue Dingfei to ensure Jiang Xuening’s escape. Yan Lin, realizing the depth of Xie Wei’s love for Jiang Xuening, felt ashamed of himself. Hearing the news from the capital, Yan’s father resolved to submit a memorial requesting the execution of Prince Pingnan to avoid being falsely accused again. Jiang Xuening stayed by Xie Wei’s side. His hand was injured, likely never to play the qin again.

Jiang Xuening said she would play for him instead. The emperor praised Xie Wei, leaving Duke Xue increasingly uneasy. He hurried to see Xue Shu.
