Unexpectedly, Yufu recognized Liling as the girl whom the emperor had fallen deeply for and, in secret, orchestrated a deception by switching her with someone else to be married to Narlang. Liling was then appointed as a palace maid. When the emperor discovered his strong affection for Liling, he realized that she was Narlang's cousin...Fate played its games, one mistake followed by another.
