Li Rong gets ready to preside at the morning court on behalf of His Majesty. Eunuch Fu Lai tells her that His Majesty has always cared for her as a father does for a daughter. He hands over to her a new edict just written by His Majesty. At this time, Concubine Rou, Su Rong Qing and their alliance party enter court to dethrone the Crown Prince on the assumption that he has killed His Majesty. When they see Li Rong instead of Li Chuan, Concubine Rou retreats to the inner palace. Su Rong Qing accepts Li Rong as the Regent and will not kill Li Chuan on the condition that he leaves the city as a commoner with a new family name and never returns.
