Rescue
The rebels attack on a large scale, the situation is uncertain, and the soldiers arrive to defend the city. Shao Zi orders someone to track down Ti Lan's whereabouts, and finally find her in Chang's palace. Considering her heavy body, the dark guard does not dare to take action rashly. Di Xu is concerned about Ti Lan's safety, and unwilling to hand this matter to others. He insists on rescuing her himself.
The pain of losing Zi Zan that year must never be repeated.
Because of this, Di Xu orders a small group of guards to accompany him out of the palace. Mu Deqing prepares a carriage and waits at the door, and decides to go together. Although he know that it is dangerous, Mu Deqing has no regrets at all. He believes that he has served Di Xu for many years, no matter where he comes from, now, the best place to go is to die a faithful death.
On the other side, Ti Lan couldn't help but question whether Bi Zi often passed messages to Zhu Nian. Bi Zi doesn't dare to hide anything, and tells the truth, including the fact that the poison found in the contraceptive medicine before, is also her deliberate plan. She just want to make Di Xu change Ti Lan's bedchamber as soon as possible.
Now, Bi Zi realizes that she has made a big mistake, and is willing to give her life to protect Ti Lan. Bi Zi deliberately brings in the rebels outside the door, and they two work together to knock them out. Just as the other rebels follow the sound, Di Xu appears in time to rescue Ti Lan.
Unexpectedly, they are intercepted by the rebels halfway back to the palace. The leader is Shi Lin. He comes from Zhu Nian, lurking for many years in Da Hui, only to kill the emperor today.
Di Xu fights hard, but unfortunately the rebels surround like fierce waves. At the critical moment, Fang Jianming appears. He arranges for Di Xu to bring Ti Lan back to the palace quickly and deals with the rebels alone. Fang Jianming presses towards the opponent step by step. Shi Lin doesn’t dare to attack at all, he wants to escape, but finally dies under Fang Jianming's sword.
Farewell
Since Ti Lan is about to give birth, Di Xu has to find a room and let Bi Zi and Mu Deqing take care of her, while he guards the door. Unexpectedly, Suo Lan leads the rebels to find this place very quickly. Di Xu fights bloody to the last moment. With the cry of the baby, he finally breathes a sigh of relief.
Several spears pierce deeply into Di Xu's chest, penetrating all the way from the back of his heart. Just when Suo Lan wants to take the opportunity to sneak attack, how could he knows that Ti Lan suddenly rushes in front of Di Xu and desperately blocks the sword for him. Di Xu's eyes widen, as if he has seen the most unbelievable nightmare in this life. But Ti Lan feels relieved. She is ready to die. Without Di Xu, she will never live alone.
When Fang Jianming arrives in a hurry, it is too late. He beheads Suo Lan under the sword. He wants to take Di Xu back to the palace to find Doctor Li for treatment, but he has lost too much blood. It is unable to recover. Fang Jianming's voice is like a rope, gradually tightens Di Xu's chaotic consciousness, for the time being. He entrusts Fang Jianming one after another, hoping that Fang Jianming could take good care of the little prince and people in Da Zheng.
On the other side, Fang Haishi leads Chen Heran's army to Tianqi City and captures Tang Qianzi, the leader of the rebel army. However, Tang Qianzi is grief-stricken when he learns the news of Ti Lan's death. He commits suicide on the spot, thus the rebellion ends.
Only If
Doctor Li checks the little prince and finds that his premature birth causes his breath to retrograde. So he will not live long.
In order to keep Di Xu's only bloodline, Fang Jianming decides to use Bai Xi again.
Just because the little prince is just born, the current government is unstable and needs the assistance of a righteous person. Fang Haishi promises to stay in palace.
Before the darkness engulfs his consciousness, Fang Jianming hears the parallel world described by Hai Shi. The two people in that world met by chance and became happy friends. They also married a few years later, with children and grandchildren, making up for each other's regrets. Thinking of this, Fang Jianming is both relieved and heartbroken. If Fang Haishi can appear in his best years, and they are just ordinary men and women in this chaotic world, perhaps they may not be so negative. It's a pity that this is only “if”. There is no other choice left to him. Fang Jianming lies on Hai Shi's lap, closes his eyes tiredly, and asks Hai Shi to remember to wake him up.
