Episode 4: Yun Wei Shan and Shang Guan Qian were both chosen as new brides at the same time.
Yun Wei Shan cried and said that she missed her father so much that she released a river lantern. Her father went out to sea when she was young and never returned since then. Gong Zi Yu misunderstood her earlier and accidentally injured her arm, so he apologized and specially gave her a handkerchief. It was getting late, and he offered to accompany Yun Wei Shan back home. However, he is now the blade handler, and it might not be appropriate for them to go together to avoid suspicion. Gong Zi Yu asked her sorrowfully if she didn't want to be with him. He looked at her face with confusion, wondering why she was completely recovered today after being poisoned last night. Yun Wei Shan explained that she wasn't poisoned at all. She only had a rash, and she obtained ointment from Shang Guan and slept overnight, which made her feel better. Before the rash appeared, she just drank tea with Jiang Li Li in her room. This tea was from Shang Guan's hometown. >>read more

Gong Yuan Zheng believed that both of them have their own beauty, but for Gong Shang Jue, they both pose their own dangers.

Episode 6: Shang Guan Qian cleverly probes Gong Shang Jue, and the truth about the jade pendant comes to light.
Yun Wei Shan was going to accompany Gong Zi Yu to the entrance of the back mountain, but she was stopped by Gong Zi Shang and Jin Fan.

Episode 7: Gong Zi Yu embarked on the challenge in the back mountain, and Yun Wei Shan wanted to assist him.
The Elder led the blindfolded Gong Zi Yu forward with difficulty. He mentioned that there were many possibilities in the experience of groping forward in the darkness and emphasized the importance of persevering no matter how challenging it may be. He looked forward to the day when Gong Zi Yu would become a true "zhi Ren." Yun Wei Shan held a candle and discovered various mechanisms in a cave.

Yun Wei Shan walked among the mountains and lakes, carrying a lantern.

A warm-hearted person has warm hands, while Yun Wei Shan believed the opposite, that a person with a cold body has a warm heart. >>read more
Episode 10: Yun Wei Shan helps Gong Zi Yu pass the first trial.
A servant in the kitchen encountered Yun Wei Shan and hastily bowed before turning to ask the cook, Jin Fan, about the food. Yun Wei Shan gave him the carefully selected pastries to pass on to Jin Fan. The women inside the palace appeared to be happy on the surface but were actually imprisoned for life. The men in the palace had the ability to resist external threats, yet they remained hidden in the valley, only concerned with a peaceful life and ignoring the storms outside. That's why Gong Zi Yu didn't have deep feelings for the palace. >>read more

Gong Zi Yu lingered outside Yun Wei Shan's door for a long time but left sadly. Yun Wei Shan saw the ice lotus in the box and burst into tears. She thought about Gong Zi Yu's words, which made her heart ache even more. Gong Zi Yu mistakenly believed that Yun Wei Shan, like Lady Wu Ji, desired freedom and that he could let her leave if she wanted. Lady Wu Ji remembered that when Lady Wu Ji was alive, she casually mentioned missing her, and the Zhi Ren ordered someone to bring her into the palace.

Episode 14: Shang Guan Qian was subjected to torture but managed to temporarily free herself from suspicion.
Lady Wujin woke up, and Yun Wei Shan personally took care of her. When Gong Zi Yu heard the news, he hurriedly arrived. Gong Zi Yu blamed himself for bringing trouble to Lady Wujin. In reality, the target of the nameless attack was him. Fortunately, they had captured Nameless and No Blade the previous night and were interrogating them, which could be considered revenge for Lady Wujin.

Gong Yuan Zheng and his group came to Xue Zhong Zi to demand Gong Zi Yu. Gong Zi Yu appeared and asked Xue Zhong Zi if he agreed to Yun Wei Shan's request for several Snow Lotus flowers.

Yun Wei Shan was captured and taken to the dungeon, with Gong Shang Jue gripping her neck. At that moment, a guard arrived with a message that Jin Fan, under the orders of the executioner, had brought chicken soup for Yun Wei Shan. Gong Shang Jue released his grip, suspecting that it might be chicken soup laced with Bai Cao Cui. Gong Zi Yu developed genuine feelings for her and was willing to endure the pain himself in order to give her the antidote. He was afraid that she might be forced to confess under the influence of the poisoned soup, so he held onto the chicken soup. Gong Zi Yu then arrived at the old executioner's study and discovered a silk pouch beneath a sharpening stone. It was a silk pouch left for him by the previous generation of "Zhi Ren." >>read more
Episode 20: Gong Huan Yu died and came back to life.
Yun Wei Shan admires the use of knives by the Gongmen, as knives are single-edged weapons used for self-defense and striking enemies, while swords are double-edged blades that can harm both the opponent and oneself. Gong Zi Yu expressed that she would teach Yun Wei Shan how to use a knife since she is now part of the Gongmen. However, prior to this, the elders had a private conversation with Yun Wei Shan, asking her to leave the Gongmen. When Gong Zi Yu arrived at the Elder's Hall, he was stopped by the guards.
