The episode opens with Su Xing, a talented diviner, playfully refusing the Emperor's request to divine the nation's fortune, citing it would shorten her lifespan. She boldly demands a thousand taels of gold as her consultation fee. Intrigued by her audacity and unique personality, the Emperor, though slightly displeased, orders her confined to a side hall of his Qiankun Palace. Su Xing, unfazed, happily indulges in the delicacies from the imperial kitchens, embracing a "slacker wins" life philosophy. However, this singular "favor" stirs up ripples in the harem, attracting gossip and jealousy. Ultimately, in the imperial court, a group of officials led by the Grand Tutor collectively petitions the Emperor, citing it as "improper conduct," and requests Su Xing be moved out of Qiankun Palace, bringing the conflict into the open.
