This episode sees Noble Consort Li setting a trap for Su Wanqing using the rare "Green Peony" that Emperor Xiao Huan gifted to the Empress. The Green Peony, which the Empress painstakingly nurtured for eight years to bloom, is then tricked by Noble Consort Li into being eaten by Su Wanqing's son, Xiao Yuan. Afterwards, Noble Consort Li feigns concern in front of the Empress, while subtly instigating, implying that Su Wanqing is acting recklessly due to giving birth to a royal heir, attempting to ignite the Empress's disgust towards Su Wanqing. Although the Empress stops Noble Consort Li's provocations, Noble Consort Li privately confides in her maid, Xiao Xi, that her goal is to plant a seed of doubt in the Empress's heart and reap the benefits. Meanwhile, Su Wanqing is frantic upon discovering the troublesome Xiao Yuan and scolds him as a "troublemaker."
