Episode 5 recap: The National Teacher attacked Liu Chang Ge.

Liu Chang Ge brought Bai Zai Zai to meet a woman who appeared cautious upon seeing Bai Zai Zai. Liu Chang Ge told her that Bai Zai Zai was not a stranger and encouraged her to speak freely. It turned out that the woman was Xiao Xiao, the consort of the Crown Prince Liu Chang He.Xiao Xiao looked at Bai Zai Zai and reminded Liu Chang He not to repeat past mistakes. Liu Chang Ge assured her that he understood and that Bai Zai Zai was not the same person as before. Xiao Xiao warned Liu Chang Ge to be cautious of Liu Chang He because he had sought the help of a fox immortal in his quest for the throne.

Liu Chang Ge thanked her for delivering the message and asked her to quickly return to avoid arousing suspicion from Liu Chang He. As Liu Chang Ge and Bai Zai Zai were leaving, a masked person suddenly appeared and began playing the zither in front of them. Immediately, a barrage of hidden weapons was launched towards them. Bai Zai Zai quickly stood in front of Liu Chang Ge, using her sword to deflect the projectiles. However, the masked person's martial skills were clearly superior. Bai Zai Zai managed to block the first wave but was hit by the second wave. Seeing this, Liu Chang Ge swiftly engaged in combat with the masked person, overpowering them. Bai Zai Zai observed Liu Chang Ge's impressive skills and couldn't understand why he still needed her as his guard.

While fighting the masked person, Liu Chang Ge spoke to Bai Zai Zai, questioning how she could easily let herself die after consuming so many carrots. As Liu Chang Ge landed a hit on the opponent, he also sustained an injury. Both sides decided not to prolong the battle. Liu Chang Ge carried Bai Zai Zai and they instantly disappeared.

The masked person struggled to remove their mask, revealing themselves to be Shen Yi, the National Teacher. Bai Yu Yu mocked him, saying that he shouldn't act strong if he didn't have the ability. Shen Yi also rebuked Bai Yu Yu, criticizing her for using her charms to serve others and questioning her audacity to speak ill of others in front of him.
