Episode 10 recap: Nangong Xi chased to Liaocheng.
Yin Ruoshui had no choice but to take off her clothes in public. However, strangely, there were no red rashes on her body. The Crown Prince seemed disappointed, but he didn't dismiss his doubts. Yin Ruoshui, full of doubts, put on her clothes. At that moment, Nangong Xi suddenly arrived. The Crown Prince greeted her coldly, expressing his dislike for being pursued by others.
Nangong Xi felt embarrassed. She tried to find an excuse, mentioning recent infiltrations by spies from the Yin Kingdom. She was also concerned about the Crown Prince's safety. The Crown Prince, with an expressionless face, suggested that she rest early, acknowledging her hardships on the journey, and then he left in a huff. Only Lin Cangwu and Yin Ruoshui were left. Lin Cangwu told Yin Ruoshui that he had put a slow-acting allergen in her tea, but its effects would soon wear off.
Yin Ruoshui expressed her gratitude and suggested that Lin Cangwu accompany her for a drink because it was her birthday. Having had too much to drink, she asked in a dazed state, "Do you really have feelings for me?" Lin Cangwu knew she wasn't asking about him. The Crown Prince left alone, feeling lonely and distressed. He had gone to great lengths to take care of her, but in the end, he had lost her.
His subordinates informed the Crown Prince that everything had been arranged according to his instructions, and they were only waiting for his command to eliminate the Nangong family's influence in one fell swoop. After much deliberation, the Crown Prince ordered them to wait a little longer. Nangong Xi approached Yin Ruoshui to test her, asking which family she belonged to. Yin Ruoshui claimed she came from a family of military generals. Nangong Xi persistently asked which general specifically. Instead of responding directly, Yin Ruoshui picked up a large knife and pointed it at Nangong Xi, saying she wanted to give her a performance.
Nangong Xi was frightened and hurriedly left. The Crown Prince, who had been absent for the night, unexpectedly brought back many prisoners from the Yin Kingdom. Yin Ruoshui saw that among them was a familiar Yin Kingdom general, which instantly made her nervous.
