At a state banquet between the Chen and Yan states, the Yan delegation proposes a literary duel. Fu Ningyu, the top scholar, worries that Princess Qin Xi is not skilled in literary contests and volunteers to participate, but is obstructed by the Empress and Second Prince Qin Hao. They provoke Qin Xi by citing her as "the child of destiny," urging her to compete. Qin Xi resolutely accepts the challenge. The Yan envoy then publicly insults Qin Xi by mentioning the "father dies, son inherits wife and concubines" custom of the Lu family. The Ninth Prince of Yan, Ji Zi'an, sets a trap, demanding Qin Xi compete in poetry with Li Xian, the renowned poet of Yan. The rules appear lenient but are designed to be impossible to win. Before the competition begins, Fu Ningyu anxiously tries to stop Qin Xi.
