Yi Siha, a eunuch serving Feiyan Palace, visits Ye Ming Palace. He has seen the ghost of a boy holding a blue swallow feather and asks Shouxue to help him. During her investigation, Shouxue comes across Yi Siha being caned by some older eunuchs. When she stops the punishment, Yi Siha's mentor Kang Lan trembles with fear. In Shouxue's eyes he saw a horrifying monster.
Though she lives in the inner palace,
،رغم أنّها تعيش في القصر الداخليّ
Obwohl sie im inneren Palast lebt,
Y aunque vive en el palacio interior,
no se arrodilla ante el Emperador.
Y aunque vive en el palacio interior,
no se arrodilla ante el Emperador.
Bien qu’elle demeure au palais,
भले ही वह अंतःपुर में रहती है,
Sebbene viva nella corte interna,
Mesmo vivendo
no Palácio Interno,
Пусть её и поселили в глубины дворца,
она обычно не видится с императором.
