After the Crown Prince left, Prince Zhao dared to tremble and stand up to leave. Qingming Academy. Yan Huaishi knocked on the academy's door, but to his surprise, the servant told him they didn't need a noble young master like him. At this moment, Feng Zhiwei also brought Gu Nanyi to knock on the academy's main gate. The servant, seeing the token in Feng Zhiwei's hand, immediately respectfully let them in. Yan Huaishi became immediately unhappy when he saw this.
He took out a heavy bag of silver to bribe the servant, but to his surprise, he was stopped again. Xin Ziyan saw Feng Zhiwei requesting entry to Qingming Academy, but mocked how someone from a place of pleasure could enter. Gu Nanyi, who had been silent, spoke up at this moment: "Bad guy." Xin Ziyan found it quite amusing and insisted he explain how he was bad.
Feng Zhiwei quickly spoke up, recounting how he frequented places of pleasure daily, her eloquence leaving Xin Ziyan stunned for a moment. Feng Zhiwei then cleverly explained Xin Ziyan's good intentions in having students wear uniforms. Xin Ziyan was pleased and began to speak voluminously. Before he could finish, Feng Zhiwei pulled Gu Nanyi and knelt before Xin Ziyan as students. Xin Ziyan held the Paulownia wood figurine and feigned surprise.
This figurine was personally given to Prince Zhao by the Grand Sorcerer. This setup was originally intended for Prince Zhao to show loyalty to the Crown Prince, but unexpectedly, others turned the tables on him. The two naturally associated the "mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind" with Chang Hai. However, the Crown Prince thought it wasn't worth it. Could it be that Prince Zhao turned the tables on the two of them?
Xin Ziyan had no choice but to volunteer again, intending to extract something from Prince Zhao's mouth. When the imprisoned Prince Zhao saw Xin Ziyan, he immediately rebuked him. Just as he was about to go to the Crown Prince to tell him everything in detail, Prince Zhao suddenly stopped. Turning around, Prince Zhao humbly pleaded with Xin Ziyan.
The latter played coy, and only after Prince Zhao served him tea and water did Xin Ziyan reveal what the Grand Sorcerer had said when he left. If this calamity was to be resolved, it all depended on his second brother, Prince Yan. Prince Zhao then remembered Feng Zhiwei; she would surely be able to testify for him. So he entrusted Xin Ziyan to find "Wei Zhi." Xin Ziyan feigned difficulty, saying he didn't know this servant.
Prince Zhao then told him to find Ning Yi, as he knew Wei Zhi, offering the cause of Ning Qiao's death in exchange. Prince Zhao was already a turtle in a jar. Zhu Yin's family and Ning Qiao were about to have their grievances redressed, but Zhu Yin seemed somewhat sad. When Zhu Yin asked what his plans were after the grievances were redressed, Ning Yi couldn't answer; he didn't know. Qingming Academy.
Gu Nanyi refused to wear the uniform, and no matter how Feng Zhiwei pleaded, it was useless. Yan Huaishi, having changed into tattered clothes, also entered the academy. As soon as he entered, he wanted to get acquainted with Feng Zhiwei. It turned out that Yan Huaishi was from the Yan family of Minhai, one of the four great aristocratic families.
Feng Zhiwei wanted to leave, but to her surprise, Yan Huaishi revealed the fact that she was disguised as a man. Feng Zhiwei had no choice but to say that her name was Wei Zhi, and she also learned the name of the annoying person behind her for the first time—Gu Nanyi. Feng Zhiwei felt that this was not a strictly regulated academy but rather like an old farmhouse far from the imperial capital. She grumbled while serving the meal.
Feng Zhiwei found Gu Nanyi's bamboo hat an eyesore, so she stepped forward and took it off. Under the hat was a face of breathtaking beauty, with eyes that sparkled. Feng Zhiwei was momentarily stunned. Gu Nanyi counted the pieces of meat on the plate and insisted he would only eat eight. Feng Zhiwei had no choice but to indulge him. Prince Zhao was drowning his sorrows in wine in his residence when Ning Yi stealthily entered.
Ning Yi spoke to himself about his days in the residence. Prince Zhao suddenly stood up and angrily rebuked him, saying he would never become a prisoner! Ning Yi then said, how could he be a prisoner? He committed a capital crime of treason. Prince Zhao then said that as long as he found Wei Zhi, he was innocent! Ning Yi chuckled lightly, asking if Ning Qiao had said the same words back then.
He woke him up with a single sentence: back then, the Crown Prince framed Ning Qiao using the sorcery case, and this time, he was using the same old trick again. Prince Zhao was immediately stunned. Prince Yan felt that there must be a third party who knew about this and had tampered with the Paulownia wood figurine. Chang Hai suspected Ning Yi, and Prince Yan also said that he was indeed not an easy person to deal with.
At this moment, Emperor Tiansheng summoned Prince Yan. Ning Yi asked why the Crown Prince had to frame Ning Qiao. Because he knew too much. Back then, Ning Qiao was ordered to investigate the Blood Butcher case and inadvertently discovered the Crown Prince's secret. Now, Prince Zhao was also investigating the Blood Butcher, so the Crown Prince was repeating his old trick. Therefore, Ning Yi advised Prince Zhao to meet the Emperor and reveal everything.
Only then could Prince Zhao rest easy and ascend to power. Although Prince Zhao was an accomplice in that matter back then, at this point, he couldn't afford not to go. Ning Yi even guaranteed that if he revealed everything, he would ensure Prince Zhao's safe departure. But Prince Zhao had not yet made up his mind; he wanted to meet the Grand Sorcerer. Ning Yi told this to Xin Ziyan, who secretly thought, "The masked Grand Sorcerer? Found him!"
Emperor Tiansheng learned that Prince Yan was also ill. Zhao Yuan felt that this illness was peculiar. Emperor Tiansheng immediately understood that Prince Yan was telling him that there was something strange about the sorcery case.
