TONGIYA YUN-YUEN is to be crowned as Empress HAU SUN soon.

TO-KWONG rushes to the imperial tomb halfway through the coronation ceremony when he learns that LAN will be buried today.

YUEN blames PRINCE SHUI for pairing up TO-KWONG and LAN.

YUEN suggests executing LAN as punishment. TO-KWONG stops her.

LAN tells EMPRESS DOWAGER that she would like to stay at a temple for a while to pray for blessings for the Qing Dynasty.

PRINCE SHUI treats the official to a meal after a meeting. They are taken aback when he asks them “what makes a good official”.

TO-KWONG has been infected. LAN blames herself. He, however, only worries that he will pass the disease to her.

EMPERESS DOWAGER throws a tantrum when she learns that LAN has slipped away.

YUEN decides to betroth LAM to YUNG GOONG GOONG, who is notorious for his eccentric temper.

PRINCE SHUI is so upset about YUEN that he takes to drinking.

Canal transportation is the current mode of shipping. TO-KWONG cannot decide whether he should switch to sea transportation.

The trial sail turns out to be a failure. PRINCE SHUI discovers that the food in the ships has been replaced with sand and stones, and that the hulls have been destroyed.

YAN wants to give PRINCE SHUI a scented satchel to express her love for him.

EMPRESS DOWAGER appreciates the way LAM is sowing dissension between LAN and YUEN.

YUEN has lost her baby. On one hand, YAU tells the imperial physician to keep this a secret.

On the way to a temple, EMPRESS DOWAGER tells WAI GOONG GOONG she is suffering from diabetes.

LADY CHEUNG’s attack has given YUEN the fright of her life. Instead of coming over to see her, TO-KWONG sends her tonic.

LADY CHING is selecting musicians for EMRPESS DOWAGER’s birthday banquet.

EMPRESS DOWAGER orders WAI GOONG GOONG to cut off LADY SHUN’s head upon learning from OR that LADY SHUN is still alive.

EMMPRESS DOWAGER wants to make open everything. TO-KWONG grounds her with the reason that she is seriously ill.

LADY SHING and her peers laugh at LADY CHING and PO, not aware that LADY CHING is listening.

NING is attacked in jail. Fortunately, TAI comes to her help in time.

It snows heavily when NING’s dead body is being sent back.

TO-KWONG hurries to the temple, only to hear from YUEN that their son has stopped breathing.

LAN is convinced that YUEN has taken his son away out of jealousy. YUEN swears she has not.

TO-KWONG wants to kill the junior prince. YUEN has no choice but to tell him how her miscarriage took place and how she lost her mother.

It does not take long before YAN starts to believe LAN. She goes to Limbo Palace to sound YUEN out.

YUEN dashes into the scene of the fire, where the senior prince is crying loudly.

Returning the Heshi Jade to TO-KWONG, PRINCE SHUI reiterates that he has always been loyal to TO-KWONG.

LADY CHING has come around. YUEN tells her about her pregnancy.

TO-KWONG visits EMPRESS DOWAGER, only to find that she has been poisoned to death.
