Episode 8 recap: Song Huan-bei Transports Medicine for Bathing to Treat Illness

In episode 8, Su Shan was invited to the imperial palace, where he unexpectedly encountered Yun Yi. However, Su Shan did not dare to acknowledge that Yun Yi was from the Mohist school. Yun Yi also did not want to use any titles, fearing that it might lead to unexpected consequences, and simply asked Su Shan to help paint a portrait of his sister to alleviate his longing. But Su Shan did not have a good impression of Yun Yi and refused his request, frankly telling him that he resembled his sister, and that looking in the mirror could solve his problem.

While accompanying Yun Yi, Su Shan advised him not to drink alcohol to treat his palpitations, and then took his leave. However, Yun Yi disregarded the advice and drank the wine in his cup without hesitation. In his dream, Yun Yi revisited the day of the great fire, desperately searching for his sister, which caused him to wake up in fright. At this moment, Shen Lan arrived to help the Princess Dowager with massage therapy, and it surprised Yun Yi that Shen Lan seemed to know everything about Su Shan's visit and Yun Shu's previous illness.

Although Su Shan helped with the transportation and treatment of the old illness, it was not cured completely. He said that a complete cure would require the involvement of a romantic partner, which left both Yun Shu and Song Huan-bei feeling awkward. That night, Yun Shu went to Song Huan-bei's room to discuss the treatment, but he did not know where to find books on romantic relationships. Song Huan-bei thought Yun Shu was too naive, and told him not to believe Su Shan's words, as he had already seen the medical books in Su Shan's possession, and there was no such treatment.

At this time, Su Shan discovered that the medical books on intimate relationships were missing and went to inquire with Song Huan-bei, only to find Yun Shu there as well, with the books in Song Huan-bei's possession. The situation was very awkward, and Su Shan was delighted to find that Song Huan-bei and Yun Shu had already been secretly studying the medical books on intimate relationships, while Yun Shu and Song Huan-bei were at a loss for words.

Su Shan then called Yun Shu and Song Huan-bei over to take a medicinal bath together, but they had to be completely naked to do so. This caused Yun Shu great embarrassment, but for the sake of the treatment, he did not hesitate and undressed one by one.
