After Shen Zhenzhu shouted that the water was poisoned, Badanmu and his accomplices took out their daggers, preparing to act. Mo Yanchuai, the Khan, and his guards reacted quickly, fighting fiercely with Badanmu and his group. Within two moves, Badanmu and his companions were subdued. In fact, Mo Yanchuai, the Khan, had long known that Badanmu and his group had ulterior motives because he could tell from Badanmu's words and deeds that Badanmu was not a genuine Huihe person.
He also knew that those Huihe people were used by Badanmu with ulterior motives, so he did not vent his anger on them. Seeing that their assassination attempt had failed, Badanmu and his accomplices bit their tongues and committed suicide. Then Yehui suddenly pointed at Shen Zhenzhu and shouted to the Khan, "She is not a Huihe person either." Everyone's gaze focused on Shen Zhenzhu.
Shen Zhenzhu truthfully confessed, stating that she only wanted to come to Huihe to find someone. Zhenzhu told the Khan that Badanmu and his group's blatant assassination attempt indicated that these people would not give up until they achieved their goal, so they must have a backup plan. Zhenzhu stated that those people were very likely to set an ambush on the only path, to attack the Khan. She suggested that the Khan pretend to be unaware and strike first.
The Khan, following Zhenzhu's suggestion, subdued the rebels who were ambushing on the only path, intending to launch a sneak attack. However, the opposing side had many people. At a critical moment, Li Chu, who came to Ganzhou to look for Dong Zebu, appeared and saved them. In fact, Li Chu and the Khan were sworn brothers. The Khan also accepted Li Chu's request to help him find Dong Zebu, a Tubo traitor general.
The Khan returned to Huihe with Zhenzhu, Li Chu, and the refugees. Zhenzhu inquired with the Khan about Yuhui's whereabouts, thus learning that Yuhui was a gift from Huihe to the Tang imperial family ten years ago. However, it was unknown who Yuhui ultimately ended up with. Upon hearing this, Zhenzhu couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.
During Li Chu's martial arts competition with the Khan, Zhenzhu learned that the sword he used was of extraordinary origin, and consequently discovered Li Chu's true identity: he was Prince Guangping, the man she was destined to marry. Longing intensely, Li Tan disguised himself as an ordinary civilian and came to Murong Linzhi's Jishitang, pretending to be sick and needing Murong Linzhi to diagnose him. Murong Linzhi showed no outward expression, but she was very happy in her heart.
The Khan and his wife, Ke Mi'yi, hosted a banquet for Li Chu and Shen Zhenzhu. When the wine flowed freely, the Khan brought up Li Chu's marriage. Li Chu expressed that he also wished to be with the person he loved, like Li Tan. However, as the Emperor's eldest grandson and the Crown Prince's eldest son, he was not free to make his own choices. As he spoke, he looked towards Shen Zhenzhu.
In fact, Li Chu's heart had long been moved by Shen Zhenzhu. During the banquet, the dancing women led Li Chu and Shen Zhenzhu to their feet, asking them to dance together. Shen Zhenzhu accidentally tripped, and Li Chu quickly stepped forward, supporting her by the waist. Her hat fell to the ground, and Shen Zhenzhu's long hair cascaded down. Only then did the Khan realize that Zhenzhu was a woman.
Even though Li Chu had already known that his "Brother Shen" was a woman, he was still captivated by Zhenzhu before him. The Khan saw that Li Chu had feelings for Zhenzhu, but Li Chu stated that he did not want to drag her into his life, which was full of schemes and cautious steps.
