Shen Zhenzhu had fallen for Prince Guangping unknowingly. Hongrui asked her if she wanted to stop taking the medicine that made her body weak. Shen Zhenzhu already had the intention to stop the medicine, but was afraid that suddenly stopping it would arouse suspicion from the imperial physicians. She wanted to wait until she had consulted Murong Linzhi, adjusted the prescription, and let this "illness" gradually improve.
Hongrui secretly came to the courtyard and buried the medicinal dregs under a tree. All these actions were seen by Yao'er, a maid placed by Cui Caiping next to Shen Zhenzhu. Yao'er secretly dug open the soil, took some medicinal dregs, and handed them to Cui Caiping. Li Chu took Shen Zhenzhu to the Shuian Nunnery in the north of the city to see his mother.
In fact, for Li Chu, he could be completely unguarded in front of Shen Zhenzhu, and thus was willing to tell her everything about himself. Shen Zhenzhu saw Consort Wei, accompanied by dim lamps and ancient Buddha statues, and was filled with emotion, thinking that this Crown Princess had once enjoyed all the riches and glory.
Consort Wei saw her son and Shen Zhenzhu by his side, and told the two of them a sentence: "One thought can lead to the abyss; cherish and be cautious." Cui Caiping took the medicinal dregs to Li Chu to lodge a complaint, claiming that Shen Zhenzhu wanted to harm him.
Li Chu didn't believe her at all, but he inadvertently overheard a conversation between Shen Zhenzhu and Hongrui, realizing that Shen Zhenzhu herself had taken those medicines, solely to avoid him. Li Chu was furious and immediately ordered Shen Zhenzhu to move into a separate courtyard, placing Shen Zhenzhu, Hongrui, and Sucǐ under house arrest. Cui Caiping, thinking she had defeated Shen Zhenzhu, was immensely pleased with herself. She seized this opportunity to torment Shen Zhenzhu.
She had Yao'er pretend to be kind and deliver chicken soup to Shen Zhenzhu, but in reality, a slow-acting poison had been added to the soup. Day by day, Shen Zhenzhu's body grew weaker and weaker, and she fainted in the middle of the night. Sucǐ and Hongrui were extremely panicked. Hongrui kept calling loudly for help, hoping that people outside would hear and save Shen Zhenzhu.
He Lingyi happened to pass by outside the courtyard, but she pretended not to hear, quietly walked past the door, with a hint of a triumphant smile on her lips. For He Lingyi, she loved Li Chu and was willing to be his devoted operative, risking her life for him, but she could not accept that Li Chu's heart was occupied by Shen Zhenzhu.
Hongrui and Sucǐ couldn't find anyone to save Shen Zhenzhu, so they could only stay up all night by Shen Zhenzhu's bedside until Shen Zhenzhu woke up the next day. Outside the courtyard, Cui Caiping had her servants fly kites, wanting Li Chu, who was by her side, to see and be happy.
Hongrui heard the sound of the servants flying kites, realizing there were people outside the door, and immediately called loudly for help, shouting that Lady Shen was gravely ill. Meanwhile, Shen Zhenzhu also began to play a musical piece. Li Chu heard it, and ultimately couldn't bear it, so he brought Cui Caiping to the separate courtyard. Shen Zhenzhu watched Li Chu arrive. She expressed that she had many things she wanted to say.
In fact, Shen Zhenzhu wanted to tell Li Chu that she had already decided to stop the medicine. Li Chu asked Shen Zhenzhu to finish playing the musical piece, saying that if it could move him, he would give her time to speak.
