Episode 12 recap: Han Ye discovered that Blue's identity hurt A Jiu.

A Jiu took Blue out for a stroll and noticed that Blue couldn't move in front of a jewelry stall. A Jiu felt that any piece of jewelry would suit Blue, so she decided to save Blue from the dilemma and bought all the jewelry. The shopkeeper praised A Jiu for her great love for her spouse. Blue felt sweet inside and took the opportunity when no one was around to ask A Jiu if her words as a spouse held any weight. A Jiu expressed her hope to officially marry Blue through a reputable matchmaker, which made Blue even happier.

Today, A Jiu went up the mountain to gather herbs, and Blue, who usually had a hard time getting up, went along. Blue was delighted to see the morning dew on the leaves and collected some to drink. A Jiu then realized that the dawn and morning dew were particularly important to Blue, and silently kept it in her heart. Prince Ye always doubted Blue's identity, so he had someone keep an eye on her. On this day, Han Ye went to the Baicao Hall to gather information and learned that A Jiu and Blue had gone to Beiming Mountain early in the morning to gather herbs. He took this opportunity to test Blue's identity.

A Jiu was familiar with the tricks of the Shangqing Department and protected Blue from an arrow shot by Han Ye. When another arrow was shot, Blue used her own abilities to force the arrow back and make Han Ye retreat, avoiding its sharpness. She then took the opportunity to escape with A Jiu. Prince Ye confirmed from Han Ye's confession that Blue was a spirit, but he was furious that Han Ye had hurt A Jiu, who was not a spirit. He slapped Han Ye hard, making him reflect on his mistake. After the slap, Prince Ye disdainfully took out a handkerchief to clean his own hand.
