Episode 13 recap: The Queen's conspiracy was exposed, and she was expelled from the palace.

Li Caiwei woke up and found Shen Huai Jin standing by her bedside. Startled, she asked him why he was in her room, but Shen Huai Jin corrected her, saying that it was his room. Li Caiwei was confused about what had happened and realized that she wasn't even wearing her outer clothes, which seemed unbelievable to her.

Shen Huai Jin mentioned that she had been affectionate and expressed her love for him yesterday. Li Caiwei blushed and felt extremely embarrassed, exclaiming that it was too shameful to live. Shen Huai Jin stopped her and told her that she had been drugged yesterday with a drug called "Love Entanglement," which was an aphrodisiac. Li Caiwei was shocked and opened her mouth wide in astonishment.

The Prince gathered everyone in the hall and interrogated them about why such a thing had happened. Liu Jingshu reported that she had been instructed by the Queen to sprinkle the aphrodisiac in the pastries with the intention of creating a scandal between Li Caiwei and Shen Huai Jin, who were brother-in-law and sister-in-law, thus causing a rift between them. The Queen, Liu Shi, had always used her own mother as leverage against Liu Jingshu.

Shen Huai Jin presented the Love Entanglement drug they found in the Queen's room as evidence. The royal physician was summoned to the hall and confessed the Queen's plot to frame Shen Huai Jin from beginning to end. With solid evidence, the Queen had nothing to say. The Prince stated that their relationship had always been a doomed fate, and from now on, they should each go their separate ways. He then issued a decree to expel the Queen from the palace, leaving Shen Huai Bin feeling heartbroken for his mother but unable to do anything.

After the Queen was driven out of the palace, Li Caiwei felt relieved. She asked Shen Huai Jin if he would be safe now, but he shook his head, saying it was not necessarily the case. He asked Li Caiwei if her words of love for him yesterday were genuine.
