Court lady An Huilan comes to make a request. She claims she can hear the voice of a dead consort coming from within the water. Xi Wanlin, the Magpie Consort during Yandi's reign, drowned herself in the lake on the day the emperor was to visit her. The voice within the water is allegedly hers. Huilan asks Shouxue to save Wanlin, but Shouxue realizes there is more to the story than what Huilan is telling her.
Why did she trust you so much?
لمَ وثقت بك لهذا الحدّ؟
Wieso hat sie so großes
Vertrauen in dich gesetzt?
¿Por qué confiaba tanto en ti?
¿Por qué confiaba tanto en ti?
Pourquoi vous accordait-elle

Si fidava così tanto di te?
Por que ela confiava tanto em você?
Но чем ты заслужил такое доверие?
