Episode 6 recap: Reunited friends.
Bing Jian looked at the swirling snow, and Ling Zhi came to see him under the cover of night. Ling Zhi wanted to know why the Ling Clan had been destroyed. When Bing Jian saw Ling Zhi, he immediately pulled her into his embrace. Bing Jian was very surprised to see her in the human clan's palace, and Ling Zhi said that although she knew it was dangerous here, she had to stay to save her family.
Bing Jian said that she had barely escaped with her life, and now she had fallen into the tiger's mouth again. Ling Zhi wanted to know what had happened back then that led to the destruction of her clan. She said it was because she had led Mu Xuan Jue to the Ling Clan, which caused their downfall, and she vowed to kill Mu Xuan Jue.
To prevent Ling Zhi's suffering, Bing Jian had helped her erase that memory. At that moment, the guards searching for the Ling Clan arrived, and Bing Jian told her to leave immediately, warning her never to trust Mu Xuan Jue, as he was the most dangerous person in the palace.
Mu Xuan Jue had also asked his subordinates and confirmed that Ling Zhi had lost her memory. He suddenly understood. Ling Zhi rushed back to her room before Mu Xuan Jue came to find her, but now the sight of Mu Xuan Jue filled her with fear.
Mu Xuan Jue carried Ling Zhi princess-style back to her room, saying that she was his woman and that she should never forget that. Mu Xuan Jue simply could not stand seeing Ling Zhi and Bing Jian together.
Mu Xuan Jue asked Ling Zhi to please him, and Ling Zhi only helped to undo his belt. Mu Xuan Jue could no longer restrain himself and wanted to kiss Ling Zhi, but Ling Zhi told him that he could violate her body, but her heart would never be his.
Mu Xuan Jue told Ling Zhi to leave. Ling Zhi had no choice but to leave, and she ended up kneeling outside the main hall until the next morning. When Mu Xuan Jue woke up, he saw Ling Zhi and simply walked past her without even a glance.
The leader of the Fire Clan went to see the Empress Dowager, and she recruited the Fire Clan leader. He naturally agreed, as he wished to save his own life.
Ling Zhi discovered that her younger sister Qing Yan was being bullied by a maid, and Ling Zhi immediately tried to stop it. But the maid said that all matters in the rear palace were under Huan Fei's control. Ling Zhi could only use her noble status to suppress the maid, but the maid said she had no real power, so she couldn't save Qing Yan.
That night, Ling Zhi proactively went to find Mu Xuan Jue, who was still drinking. Ling Zhi apologized, saying she should not have defied him. Mu Xuan Jue became extremely angry and threw his cup to the ground, shattering it. Ling Zhi knelt on the broken glass.
At that moment, someone rushed out to assassinate Mu Xuan Jue. Ling Zhi quickly stepped in front to protect him, sustaining serious injuries. To earn Mu Xuan Jue's trust, she had to risk her life.
