Jul 4, 2023

Ye Yun recognized that it was Liu Yuru's hairpin, so she put down her guard against Shen Ming. Wang Ai, the third son of Wang Shanquan, was pleasantly surprised by Luo Zishang's return, and dreamed that if he respected Luo Zishang as a guest, he would be able to get his assistance. Unexpectedly, Luo Zishang signaled his subordinates to kill him, and let people release the news that Wang Shanquan and Wang Ai supported their own self-respect and tried to follow the example of King Liang's rebellion. Liu Yuru and Shen Ming took Ye Shian and Ye Yun with them, and left by boat at Changfengdu, but they saw Luo Zishang sitting on a horse far away, as if they were seeing each other off. Today is the last day of the deadline. Gu Jiusi and Liu Yuru issued a military order for the sake of the Gu family. Jiang Rou is very worried about Liu Yuru who has not yet returned.

Gu Jiusi greeted Liu Yuru's return outside Youzhou City, seeing Liu Yuru came back safe and sound, Jiang Rou finally let go of a hanging heart. Su Wan also came back with Liu Yuru. So far, Zhang Yueer's behavior of refusing to save her is completely known to everyone. She cried bitterly and confessed her behavior, but she hoped that the kind-hearted Su Wan could take in her three children. Su Wan agreed, and Liu Yuru also tacitly let Zhang Yueer's three children stay. Among them, Liu Yuying and Zhang Yue'er have similar personalities, and they are also bitter and mean-spirited on weekdays. Liu Yuru hopes that she can walk the right way in the future. The emperor passed away, and now the crown prince is in power, King Liang's bandit army is fighting fiercely with the Youzhou army, and other states are watching from the sidelines.

Ye Shi'an understood that it would be best to entrust Ye Yun to the Gu family, so he told Gu Jiusi about this trip and talked about it. Gu Jiusi had just found him a position as chief bookkeeper, but he didn't expect that he would leave Youzhou right now. The reason for Ye Shian's departure is still reasonable, but Gu Jiusi is really not flattering. He said a lot of words, and finally made Ye Shian realize that in troubled times, fame and integrity are things outside the body, and the most important thing is to do practical things for the people in a down-to-earth manner. After that, Ye Shi'an started to pick up arrows and practiced all day long, his hands were covered with calluses. Liu Yuru was by Su Wan's side, she had already prepared a dowry for Liu Yuying, and added an extra gold bracelet. What Liu Yuru was most worried about was Ye Yun. Ever since she came to Youzhou, she kept her house behind closed doors all day long.

Liu Yuru went to see Ye Yun, but Ye Yun said she was not feeling well, so she didn't open the door to see her. Shen Ming was in charge of guarding Ye Yun outside the door, and felt bored, so he took a leaf and blew it up, and Ye Yun went out to remind him that the tune was wrong. Shen Ming ignored it and continued to play, which relieved Ye Yun's knot by mistake. Zhou Ye was surprised to learn that Ye Yun killed Wang Shanquan, because it was rumored that Luo Zishang killed Wang Shanquan. Gu Jiusi believed that behind Luo Zishang, there must be a bigger conspiracy hidden. When Zhou Ye learned that King Liang had left Gyeonggi, he felt bad. He suspected that King Liang had come straight to Youzhou to capture Fan Yu and threaten Fan Xuan to retreat. His guess was right. Not long after, news came that King Liang was approaching Youzhou with an army of 100,000.

Zhou Ye planned to spread the message quickly and hand over Youzhou to Gu Jiusi, hoping that he would bring the 10,000 soldiers in Youzhou city and guard them until he returned with them. Liu Yuru persuaded Ye Yun to move to the Shantang to no avail, so she let her live by herself. Ye Yun also had a reason for doing this, she was afraid that her identity would bring trouble to Liu Yuru. In front of all the soldiers, Zhou Ye handed over the military power of Youzhou to Gu Jiusi, and he went back to Dongdu personally to ask for help.
