Sang Ning stepped forward and politely asked Wang Qiuhong, "Qiuqiu, my dear sister, can I continue requesting you to act alongside me?"
Wang Qiuhong nodded.
This scene is set at the location of a tall wall leading out of the palace. Jiuqiansui, having failed in his bid for power, takes the Crown Prince hostage with his beloved and prepares to escape the palace.
Just as they are about to climb over the tall wall, the Emperor and the General arrive with troops.
Jiuqiansui's true lineage holds a hidden truth: he was born from a lowly maid whom the Emperor drunkenly defiled.
The Emperor regarded this as a disgraceful matter, but his indecisive nature prevented him from killing his own flesh and blood. Instead, he gave some silver to the maid, instructing her to leave the palace with Jiuqiansui and live elsewhere.
