Episode 18 recap: Wan Yu is rescued by the princess.
Tu Qian Zhou goes to the prison to find Wan Yu but discovers that the guards have been drugged, and Wan Yu is nowhere to be found. He immediately sends out a signal and orders his subordinates to search the entire city for Wan Yu. On the way, Tu Qian Zhou encounters Wan Yu and tightly embraces her, relieved to see that she is unharmed. He promises that no one will hurt her again.
Wan Yu was thrown into the prison because of her disguise as a woman in the band, and this incident has caused a stir in the palace. Tu Qian Zhou immediately suspects the chief eunuch's involvement, while Shu Chen suggests that they gather evidence quickly. However, Tu Qian Zhou can't worry about that at the moment. He decides to rescue Wan Yu by storming the prison. He doesn't want his team members to get involved and insists on doing it alone.
Shu Chen suggests that they divide their forces into three groups. One group will mobilize the people and seek their support, hoping that Wan Yu's fans can help rescue her. Tu Qian Zhou will go to find the princess, hoping that she will believe that the chief eunuch is the culprit and use this opportunity to save Wan Yu. Tu Qian Zhou is worried that Wan Yu might be subjected to torture in the prison, so he is determined to storm the prison himself. He instructs Shu Chen to pretend not to know about their plan and distances himself from it.
During the quiet night, the chief eunuch walks alone on the road, while Shu Chen and Jin Xin Xin secretly follow him. Tu Qian Zhou arrives at the prison and finds the guards drugged, but Wan Yu is missing. Mu Bai and the others go door-to-door seeking help, but with little success. They decide to drum on the street to awaken the people and gather support. Tu Qian Zhou encounters Wan Yu on the way and tightly embraces her, relieved to see that she is unharmed. The princess watches them affectionately and reprimands Tu Qian Zhou for arriving late. In fact, the princess had arrived at the prison an hour ago during a visit and brought food for the guards while rescuing Wan Yu. The chief eunuch arrives at a courtyard but loses track of them. Tu Qian Zhou joins the search for the hidden gunpowder devices in the stage.
