Gary, a Jieshuo man, framed Cui Yi, saying that he had reached a cooperation with Jieshuo. In fact, he lost the battle at Baishui Pass because he suddenly broke the contract. Pei Xian on the side was so angry that he pointed at Gary's head and asked him why he didn't expose it to his face in the first place. Gary actually flattered the new emperor, saying that he did not know that the new emperor was so magnanimous at the time. Only now did he realize that what Cui Yi did was not the new emperor's instruction, but his own initiative.

The new emperor was very satisfied with this speech. Pei Xian hurriedly stood up and reminded the new emperor that Cui Yi was Dayu's general. How could he easily believe the groundless words of outsiders? Unexpectedly, another minister actually refuted Pei Xian, saying that Cui Yi showed his ambition, and Gary also made it clear. Pei Xian was angry and anxious, and argued with the minister. But he didn't expect that the other party had come prepared long ago, and his words to frame Cui Yi were clear and logical.

Li Yi had a headache and stepped forward to question Gary. Since he said that Cui Yi colluded with Jieshuo, how exactly did they collude? What did they say on the day they agreed? Even if it was true as he said, how did he know about it? Why didn't Cui Yi kill him to silence him? Gary explained one by one and also mentioned Liu Chengfeng. Later, the new emperor called Liu Chengfeng in for a confrontation. Liu Chengfeng was so ambitious that he told Li Yi so perfectly that he even bit Li Yi back, saying that he didn't believe what he said because of his own selfishness.

Pei Xian was anxious and reminded the new emperor that during the chaos between the two kings that day, Cui Yi arrived in time to save the emperor. But before he finished speaking, Liu Chengfeng said excitedly, how could Cui Yi arrive in such time if he hadn't conspired with Jieshuo. The new emperor was originally displeased with Cui Yi, and now that he had reason to capture him for interrogation, he was naturally happy.

Now, if Cui Jiajun wants to be safe and sound, he must rush back to Yingzhou in time. Before Li Yi came back, Cui Lin hurriedly wrote a letter to her father. Li Ni was really worried about Cui Lin's safety, so he secretly came to her room at night. Knowing that Cui Lin had already arranged for guards, he felt a little calmer. But then, news came that Dali Temple was in trouble. Now that Gary was killed and Liu Chengfeng was injured, the new emperor was even more determined that Cui Yi wanted to kill people and silence them. Afterwards, the new emperor quickly ordered Pei Xian to recover Cui Yi. Pei Xian was shocked and didn't know how to answer. Li Yi knew that Pei Xian was in trouble, so he suggested that Pei Yuan chase him.

A minister suddenly stood up and said that special attention should be paid to Cui Lin. Li Ni frowned and said that she was in Cui Lin's room just now, so she naturally had no suspicion. The new emperor was so angry that he pointed at Li Yi's nose and cursed them for being shameless. Li Ni replied coldly, saying that he sneaked in through the window. The new emperor was even more annoyed, holding on to the dragon chair and gasping for air. Li Ni simply refused to do anything and said that he insisted on marrying Cui Lin as his wife. She was the only princess he recognized.

The new emperor was so angry that he had a headache and said that it would be best for Li Yi to kill him so that he could become emperor. Pei Xian quickly persuaded Li Ni that no matter whether he was a prince or a son, he should not make his father unhappy like this. Li Yi had no choice but to kneel down. Finally, the new emperor accepted the suggestion of Prime Minister Gu and ordered Li Ni to personally recover Cui Yi and investigate the matter clearly. While Li Ni was not in the capital, the new emperor conspired with Gu Xiangyi to make Gu Waanniang Liangdi first, and then make her the crown princess when Li Ni came back.

Here, Cui Lin was anxious. If Li Ni takes his father back to Beijing this time, it will probably be a disaster. If his father has already returned to Yingzhou, he will be guilty of collaborating with the enemy and treason, and war will be inevitable in the future. She didn't know what her father would choose. A few days later, Cui Yi followed Li Ni back to Beijing. After sending Cui Yi to the palace, Li Ni planned to go to the palace to resume his life, but unexpectedly learned that the new emperor had made Gu Wanniang the title of Liangdi on his own initiative, and would make her the crown prince in the future. Li Ni was shocked. What shocked him even more was that Gu Waanniang's maid suddenly came crying and begged him to save Gu Waanniang. According to her, when Gu Wanniang heard that Li Ni had returned to Beijing, she sent her servants away and hanged herself in her room alone.

After all, Gu Wanniang had some affection for him, so Li Ni could not ignore her and had no choice but to go and see for herself. Gu Wanniang pretended to be reasonable, saying that she did not become Liangdi voluntarily, and she did not want him and Cui Lin to have any quarrel because of her, so she decided to end it and not embarrass him. Li Ni didn't have the time to speculate on Gu Wanniang's little schemes, so he believed that she had no choice but to become his good wife, and persuaded her to live a good life as a friend.

It was raining heavily, and Li Ni knelt in front of the main hall, saying that Cui Yi was innocent. The new emperor was so angry that he refused to meet him. Li Ni was very puzzled. Cui Yi had obviously saved the new emperor's life. How could he persecute loyal ministers and do such stupid things? How could he be such a king?
