Episode 21 recap: Shen Yi forms an alliance with the Crown Prince to deal with Liu Chang Ge.
At this time, rumors are spreading throughout the streets and alleys about the Second Prince, Liu Chang Ge, planning to marry a rabbit demon. Li You Dao, accompanied by his senior martial brother Lu Li, visits the Crown Prince. Lu Li is from the Demonic Cult, and he informs the Crown Prince that Liu Chang Ge has an extraordinary background. His mother, Lu Sha, is the snake demon that Lu Li had hunted down twenty years ago. The demonic energy in the palace has become extremely heavy, and they cannot simply stand by and do nothing.
However, Liu Chang Ge is a half-human, half-demon hybrid and incredibly cunning. They must be cautious. The subordinates report to the Crown Prince that the National Teacher, Shen Yi, and the Third Prince have come to visit. Before they can finish speaking, Shen Yi and Liu Chang Jie have already entered the room. The Crown Prince finds it strange to see Liu Chang Jie in a dazed state. Shen Yi takes out the Tiger Token and informs the Crown Prince that he only gave a small punishment to his third son and has come to form an alliance with the Crown Prince.
The current Emperor intends to pass the throne to the Second Prince, and if the Crown Prince has any thoughts, he must eliminate Liu Chang Ge. Seeing so many powerful individuals coming to join him, the Crown Prince immediately decides to agree and join forces to deal with Liu Chang Ge. Shen Yi warns the Crown Prince to be cautious of the Crown Princess, Chen Xiao Xiao, as she has been secretly colluding with Liu Chang Ge.
Just then, they discover someone eavesdropping outside the door. They quickly rush out to investigate and find Chen Xiao Xiao. Shen Yi throws a hidden weapon at her, causing her minor injuries as she flees. Chen Xiao Xiao arrives at Liu Chang Ge's residence, and the chief steward quickly has her escorted inside. Chen Xiao Xiao, affected by Shen Yi's qi, knows she doesn't have much time left and reveals everything she overheard to Liu Chang Ge before passing away.
