Hongli came to the Palace of Yanxi Palace to visit Yingluo, and felt sorry for Yingluo when he saw that Yingluo had hurt her body because of copying the blood scriptures. Yingluo ingeniously managed to stay in Hongli overnight. Although Hongli agreed to stay overnight, he did not want to get close to Yingluo. But Yingluo tried to explain to Hongli the reason why she was afraid of pregnancy and childbirth, and won the emperor's sympathy and pity, and regained his favor. However, early the next morning, Hongli had disappeared. Xiaoquanzi finds out that the emperor rushed to Lijingxuan to have breakfast with Concubine Shun early in the morning, which makes Yingluo very angry. Yingluo went to the successor's place early in the morning, and saw Nalan Chunxue, Xiao Jiafei and others reunited with the successor, talking about the favored concubine Shun, all gnashing their teeth. The concubine made the emperor indulge in singing and music, so she was not allowed to stay. Yingluo was happy to see them do whatever they could to fight for favor, sitting on the mountain and watching the tigers fight. Hongli sent Concubine Shun to the Palace of Yanxi Palace to learn the rules on purpose, Yingluo treated Concubine Shun coldly, but Concubine Shun didn't care, and was as enthusiastic as ever. Concubine Shun believes that Yingluo is kind in nature, but she is only pretending to be cold-hearted towards her.
