Spoilers Ahead
Recap: Xia'er is about to be dumped and our leads have finally made it clear they have feelings for each other. What will happen next?

1.Xia'er does not believe Cang Yun. She is willing to elope with him (he reveals what her father has told him, that the marriage is set).

2.Meanwhile, Yi'er seems to be recovering just find. Outside the villages bow to him and wish repay him but he is embarrassed and wants them to rise.To contain the epidemic the villagers agree to collect animal corpses and burn them. Her father believes it was the will of his departed wife.

3.There is a flashback. A woman named Su Qi and her husband are trying to escape. Guards chase them. She sent her family away and told them to live in quiet obscurity while she lived on. (Su Qi may actually be alive)

4.Consort Zhen asks for updates on Princess Yin and is happy she is not doing well. She warns her attendant to be careful. It seems the King has not been to visit her lately nor has he come to see her. It seems he would rather sleep alone. She concludes he must still be worried about Consort Yin.

5.Meanwhile, Princess Yin still seems to be ill. She is visited by the emperor who is told she has not improved. She no longer pays attention to him. Her servant sends a message to Qin, wanting her to be saved.

6.The Emperor and the Dowager worry about word getting back to Qin. In addition to this, they have not received the He Shi Bi. (A lot of this is unsubbed)

7.Zhang Yi receives the update, that the child died, that the King of Chu is furious. He views it as a chance to create issues in the harem. They will not waste their efforts in Yin and will only tell the king about the child dying.

8.The Empress (and sister to the King of Chu) tells the emperor that the king must have killed the child (she really hates him). The King of Qin will have it investigated.

9.Meanwhile, guards are kidnapping beautiful women to be taken int the palace. She allows herself to be seen and is immediately taken into the palace. It seems that the King is allowed to make the final selection (he makes my skin crawl) and he immediately takes a liking to Tian Ji. He is allowed to keep two and chooses her and another. They are tested to seduce him. (he is going to send one to chu)

10.Xia'er is all set to run away. Her maidservant catches her and she tells her.She is able to persuade her to take her. While she grabs her things, the girl, Cai Wei, is seen by the lord and lady. She has no choice but to confess the truth. Naturally, her parents are furious and want to lock her up. Her mother fears Xia'er will kill herself.

11.Cang Yun is going to be dealt with. (poor xia'er). Cai Wei again tries to dissuade her. Because of this, Xia'er tells her she should not go.......

12.Elsewhere, Chou Mu and Yuan spend time together. She learns that for reasons unknown, his father constantly tries to stop him from doing things (awww, poor guy). It seems because of this he has become adept at getting around him (some of these flashbacks are so goofy). It seems his father tried to stop him from attending school. But we also learn that he would always try to correct his mistakes. We also learn he wrote Ode to Orange when he was 15 or 16 (how old is he?) .

13.They watch birds in the sky. (I have a feeling someone is going to crush this parade). Tian Ju is sent to Chu by the King. Tiang Tong is sent as her personal maid.She is a bit of an upstart.

14.Xia'er tries to run offand her parents watch her run off. It seems that Cai Wei is part of their little plan. Men are sent after them, and Cang Yun is caught by them. She waits by the sea for him, but he cannot come. Because he is in trouble. Cang Yun is beat while begging. He is beaten very badly......
