Qi Jinghao confronts Consort Shu, suspecting she is his mother and that he was swapped with Hui Jianing's child. Consort Shu confirms his suspicions, revealing she orchestrated the switch to ensure his survival and position. She confesses to using witchcraft against the Emperor to aid Qi Jinghao's ambitions. Qi Jinghao accepts her actions and declares his intention to seize the throne, acknowledging Yang Ruxin as an obstacle.

When Qi Jinghao left, Consort Shu finally realized her son hadn’t even called her "Mother Consort" once. No, next time she must hear him call her that, so she won’t have any regrets.

As for Eunuch Ping, after arriving at the Gu Family residence, he was informed that Madam Ruyi had been invited back by Prince Han, so he hurriedly went to the Prince’s residence to pick her up.

Although Qi Jinghao wasn’t there, the butler was.

"Princess Consort, the Prince said he hopes you come and go early." The butler did not stop Yang Ruxin but did not release Chai Qin either.

Yang Ruxin let out a cold laugh, "Alright then." Using Chai Qin to threaten her, truly shameless to the extreme. The only frustrating part was not knowing where they had imprisoned Chai Qin; even Xiaolun couldn’t find out.

After entering the palace, Yang Ruxin heard about the Emperor’s grand exploits over the past two nights and couldn’t help but be filled with admiration. The old Emperor was quite fashionable.

Upon exiting Chengqian Palace, she saw Gu Qingheng, who had come specifically to wait for her.

Yang Ruxin briefly explained the situation at the Prince’s residence, "I can’t leave Chai Qin alone."

"I know," Gu Qingheng tightly gripped Yang Ruxin’s hand, "but you don’t need to go there; we’ll use the medicine women for an exchange."

"You mean..."

"Last night, I raided an estate on the outskirts and found the other two medicine women," Gu Qingheng smirked slightly. "I believe the medicine women are much more important than Chai Qin."

Therefore, Yang Ruxin happily returned to her own home.

Qi Jinghao was in a foul mood because, upon leaving the palace, he received the news that the other two medicine women had been taken by someone, and the external base had been bloodily raided.

"Gu Qingheng!" the angry Prince Han crushed a piece of Jade Pendant into powder.

"Your Highness, Prince Han." Not long after leaving the palace gates, the person he’d been talking about was waiting by the roadside.

"General Gu." Qi Jinghao dismounted and stood facing Gu Qingheng, his eyes filled with surging anger.

"I heard my young lady was detained by the Prince?" Gu Qingheng appeared calm and unruffled.

Qi Jinghao’s eyes narrowed slightly.

"I happen to have someone from the Prince’s side too," Gu Qingheng said, wiggling two fingers.

"So it was you!"

Gu Qingheng nodded and replied, "So it was you!"

Prince Han said nothing and only stared at Gu Qingheng. If special effects were applied, the gaze between the two would have sparked long ago.

For a long time, until their guards felt tense, Prince Han was the first to nod, "Alright." This signified agreement to the exchange.

Gu Qingheng smiled, then gestured toward a carriage not far away, "The person is there."

Gu Qiao opened the carriage door a bit but quickly closed it.

"There’s only one?" Qi Jinghao frowned.

"Exchanging one of mine for one of yours is fair. Or do you want to go for two?"

"Yes, two." Prince Han let out a strange smile, "Otherwise, no deal. After all, that little lady is quite talented too."

"You dare!"

"Wanna try?"

Gu Qingheng sneered, "The Prince is quite ruthless!"

"Right back at you."

Gu Qingheng had no choice but to nod, "Release Chai Qin, and the other one will be delivered."

Prince Han signaled to Yuan Hua.

Yuan Hua quickly left and soon returned with Chai Qin.

"General." Chai Qin was really frustrated. If it weren’t for her, Madam wouldn’t have had to stay at the Prince’s residence for so long.

"Hurry home." Gu Qingheng waved to the young girl and then glanced at Prince Han, "Farewell."
