Episode 7 recap: Pei Xing Jian went to the Western Province alone, leaving behind Liu Li.
Liu Li told Pei Xing Jian that she wanted to see Wu Zhao Yi before leaving, and Pei Xing Jian naturally agreed. Princess Dachang soon learned that the couple, Pei Xing Jian and Liu Li, had been sent to the Western Province. For her, it was good news because she no longer had to compete with Pei Xing Jian. She even mocked Pei Xing Jian for offending such a powerful ally, leaving no one to challenge her.
While Pei Xing Jian was packing his belongings in Fushan, Wu Zhao Yi's mother, Madam Yang, asked him to come over. Once Pei Xing Jian arrived, Madam Yang accused him of being ungrateful. She also asked Pei Xing Jian to praise Wu Zhao Yi in front of the Emperor and help her secure the position of the Empress. She said that if Pei Xing Jian agreed, she would forget about the matter.
However, to their surprise, Pei Xing Jian still refused. This naturally made Madam Yang extremely angry. On the other hand, Princess Dachang's daughter-in-law found Liu Li and pretended to help them store their belongings, but her real intention was to seize all of the Pei family's assets. However, Liu Li wouldn't let Princess Dachang's daughter-in-law take advantage of them. She said she would entrust the belongings to Pei Xing Jian's uncle and aunt to handle. So, Princess Dachang's daughter-in-law had no choice but to leave.
Madam Yang even tried to use Liu Li's safety as a threat, as they would face numerous difficulties and harsh conditions in the Western Province. However, Pei Xing Jian had made up his mind, and nothing could change it. General Fang, upon learning of the situation, became very worried about Pei Xing Jian's current circumstances, especially since Liu Li would be going with him. It was risky for a girl to be in the Western Province.
In fact, Pei Xing Jian had great ambitions, but everyone kept saying that it would be unfair to Liu Li. Pei Xing Jian felt hesitant, but until now, he hadn't found a better solution. Moreover, Liu Li expressed her determination to stand by him, no matter what.
After returning home, Pei Xing Jian took Liu Li out to cause some trouble and had a good time together. After all, many things would be impossible once they arrived in the Western Province. Liu Li also took a liking to two clay figures, and Pei Xing Jian immediately bought them and gave them to her. In the evening, the couple returned home together. Liu Li quickly fell asleep, and after hastily leaving a letter, Pei Xing Jian left. When Liu Li woke up in the morning and saw the letter, she didn't even bother to put on her shoes and hurriedly ran out of the house. Pei Xing Jian didn't want to burden Liu Li, but her mind was made up, and she arranged for transportation to visit Wu Zhao Yi before preparing to leave.
Liu Li first went to the Hedong Mansion and handed over some things to the uncles and aunts there. However, because Princess Dachang was present, they didn't dare to accept. Princess Dachang even brought two boxes of gold, hoping they would hand over their belongings. However, at this moment, Lu Jin Niang unexpectedly stepped forward and offered a higher price. In fact, all of this was planned by Liu Li and Lu Jin Niang. They didn't want Princess Dachang to take advantage.
Princess Dachang naturally refused to give up and even offered more money. Lu Jin Niang gave an even higher price and had the gold brought in directly. Princess Dachang didn't want to miss this opportunity. Just then, some relatives of Madam Yang arrived.
Madam Yang came to support Liu Li and prevent Princess Dachang from taking advantage. Liu Li not only sold all the estates but also thought they would still get a portion of the money. However, she found out that Pei Xing Jian had already donated all the money to the military camp, as they were currently at war and in need of funds.
Madam Yang took away all the belongings. Thanks to Madam Yang's assistance this time, she also showed great admiration for Liu Li. Now that Pei Xing Jian had gone to the Western Province, Madam Yang still wanted Liu Li to stay, whether it was in the palace accompanying Wu Zhao Yi or in the Wu Mansion. However, Liu Li refused. Her sole purpose was to find Pei Xing Jian as soon as possible.
