Episode 8 recap: Shen Huai Jin sets out to catch the real culprit.
Shen Huai Jin knows that the mastermind behind this incident must be Queen Liu, so he sends Guo An to investigate. As expected, it was Ding Xiang who instructed Wang Mama to put walnut powder in the water. Now Wang Mama is still bothering Ding Xiang, asking her for hush money! Queen Liu's move can be described as killing two birds with one stone. If this plan succeeds, not only will it eliminate the threat of Shen Huai Jin, but it will also get rid of Li Caiwei.
The Crown Prince sneers and says that since she knows how to use others as a scapegoat, he will also invite her into the trap. At night, Wang Mama hurriedly walks with a silver ticket in her hand when suddenly a masked person stops her. The person holds a knife to Wang Mama's neck and tells her that someone has paid to take her life. Wang Mama immediately guesses that it's Ding Xiang, and after cursing at her, she pleads with the assassin to spare her.
However, the assassin remains unmoved. Fortunately, the Crown Prince, Shen Huai Jin, arrives just in time and saves Wang Mama. After driving away the assassin, Wang Mama pleads with the Crown Prince to protect her. She reveals how Ding Xiang instructed her to plot against the Crown Prince and frame Li Caiwei. Li Caiwei is released, and her first thought is to find Shen Huai Jin. Guo An deliberately teases her, saying that the Crown Prince has been captured, and Li Caiwei becomes anxious upon hearing this.
The Crown Prince quickly comes out, and Li Caiwei finally relaxes. Guo An informs her that Ding Xiang and Wang Mama have been taken to the Dali Temple. Li Caiwei is famished, and the Crown Prince has prepared a table full of delicious food for her. She devours it eagerly. Li Caiwei says to Shen Huai Jin that now he should believe that there are people in the palace who want to harm him. Shen Huai Jin calmly responds that he actually knew it long ago.
Li Caiwei takes Shen Huai Jin to the riverside, where she has prepared many sky lanterns for him. She says that making a wish while looking at the lanterns will make it come true.
