Episode 10 recap: Blue's identity was suspected by the Qing Sect.
Prince Ye went to Baicao Hall for treatment, and Blue, without any hesitation, took out a bowl of his own bathwater, claiming it to be a miraculous remedy for wind-cold. He assured Prince Ye that by drinking it, his illness would be cured instantly, and he demanded fifty taels of silver in return. Prince Ye suspected that Blue was a supernatural being and took advantage of the moment when the medicine was being served to approach Blue. At that moment, A Jiu appeared to diagnose and treat Prince Ye, preventing him from drinking the bowl of "wind-cold remedy."
Blue was disappointed to see the fifty taels slipping away from his grasp and couldn't help but feel dissatisfied. However, A Jiu stated that from now on, only he would be allowed to drink Blue's bathwater, which made Blue smile sweetly again. Prince Ye intentionally spilled the "wind-cold remedy," wiped his hands with a handkerchief, and instructed Han Ye to take the handkerchief back for the Qing Sect's physicians to analyze. Although the physicians knew that ordinary Banlangen herbal medicine did not possess such strong effects, they couldn't determine from the scent on the handkerchief whether it was an herbal supernatural being. They proposed personally meeting Blue to make a conclusive judgment.
At that moment, A Jiu suddenly arrived and revealed that he was feeling unwell and wished to retire from his position. Prince Ye took the opportunity to request A Jiu to capture the recently appearing Wolfsbane supernatural being. If A Jiu could accomplish this task, Prince Ye would allow him to resign. A Jiu had already laid a trap to capture the Wolfsbane supernatural being. Blue, unaware of A Jiu's true identity, thought he was out on a medical visit. Blue overheard people saying that by releasing sky lanterns together, two people could be together forever. So, Blue strolled through the streets, eating candied hawthorns, and waited for A Jiu.
The Qing Sect's pharmacists, sensing a strong herbal supernatural scent in the streets, discreetly approached Blue, but Blue was too engrossed in watching Ning'er selling lanterns to notice.
