The Glory

Fu Yunxi sees through Zhuang Hanyan's disguise and purpose. Zhuang Hanyan notices the threat brought by Fu Yunxi, so she sends her friend Chai Jing to investigate him secretly.

Taoist Duan pushed Zhuang Hanyan into a desperate situation. Zhuang Hanyan did not panic, but pressed on step by step, forcing Taoist Duan to admit his crime of framing the innocent.

Chai Jing went to kill Fu Yunxi, but he managed to escape. Chai Jing then set fire to Fu's residence.

Zhuang Yushan saw Zhuang Hanyan talking to Fu Yunxi late at night, and her jealousy grew even stronger. She sent someone to find the bedding of a smallpox patient, hoping to infect Zhuang Hanyan with smallpox.

Zhuang Hanyan wanted to find out her mother's secret, so she agreed to stay in the Zhuang Resdence to collect information for Fu Yunxi.

Ruan Xiwen was confined to Jianjia Chamber, and Zhuang Hanyan came to protect her mother. Ruan Xiwen was moved, but still pretended to be indifferent.

Zhou Ruyin and her son were jealous of Zhuang Hanyan's popularity in Yinan Guild Hall, so they planned a rally for Zhuang Yuchi.

Zhou Ruyin colluded with Yang Ping and conspired to reopen the old case of Zhang Youchang and his wife in Danzhou.

Zhuang Hanyan regained her freedom, but could not find any trace of Chai Jing.

On the first day of the Lunar New Year, officials enter the palace to meet the emperor, but Zhuang Shiyang and the twelve officials were detained in the palace.
