In this chapter, the young master of the Imperial Palace, Shu Shu, is trying to catch a glimpse of the "bei chen" royal consort, but she's too smart to catch him. Shu tells the prince to put on his clothes before he goes to see the royal consort. The prince says he'll go to Luoyue to find out what's going on. Shu says that he's heard that a midwife and a midwife's assistant have all died in a mysterious fire in the past year. Shu asks the prince not to tell anyone about the birthmark, but Shu says he can't find out who the woman was five years ago when she left the imperial palace with the prince. Shu also says that the younger sister of the prince is now living in the same building as Shu. Shu doesn't know who the girl is, but he does know that she is Shu's sister. Shu is worried about what will happen if he finds out.
