Episode 16 recap: Yu Minghe meets Liu Yueqing.
Pei Hao learned that Pei Xun had been staying in the Eastern Palace and hadn't come out for some time, which he found intriguing. He decided to go and take a look with his men. As soon as Pei Hao arrived at the entrance of the Eastern Palace, he saw Yu Minghe acting suspiciously outside and brought him over. Pei Hao stated that he only asked Yu Minghe to write about Pei Xun's romantic affairs, but he didn't expect Yu Minghe to dare to write about treason.
Yu Minghe explained that he could no longer hold an official position and begged Pei Hao for help. Pei Hao mentioned that he had connections with the border princes, who were in charge of guarding the borders, and suggested that Yu Minghe go there. Liu Yueqing received a letter inviting her to meet a relative and went out. Han Zhenzheng happened to see her and informed Pei Xun. Pei Xun believed that Liu Yueqing would definitely get lost and wanted to go together and take a look.
When Liu Yueqing arrived, she was surprised to find that it was Yu Minghe. Yu Minghe said that he was about to leave and hoped to take Liu Yueqing with him to live an ordinary life. However, Liu Yueqing refused, saying that she had initially wanted a stable life but now she understood that she had always sought stability because she hadn't found someone willing to make an effort. She stated that she had found that person now and thanked Yu Minghe for helping her realize this.
Yu Minghe insisted on taking Liu Yueqing away, but Pei Xun arrived and took Liu Yueqing with him, warning Yu Minghe that if he returned to the capital again, there would be no way back for him.
