In the end, Shen Lige committed suicide by taking poison.

Plot: Liu Yikang knelt on the steps despite the heavy rain and begged the emperor to take back his life. The emperor still did not see Liu Yikang for a whole day and night. When he returned to Chengxiu Pavilion, he saw the supper prepared by Shen Lige for him, and he had mixed feelings in his heart. . Liu Yikang went to see Shen Lige and painted her eyebrows in person. He also lied that the emperor promised to let him rest for three months and find a place near mountains and rivers to live a life like a couple of gods and gods.

Before leaving, Sanbao whispered to Liu Yikang that the ministers gathered in the yard to ask for an explanation. Liu Yikang left on the pretext of government affairs. Shen Lige returned to the Shen family with betrothal gifts and fine wine, only to find that There was no one at home, and then he went to Sanjiu Hall. Kongcheng and Chen Shaoxun were gone. He told the ministers that the three-day deadline had not come yet, and he would ask the emperor again, but the emperor still didn't see Liu Yikang.

Liu Yikang and Shen Lige have experienced so many hardships, and they have long been in love with each other, and they will never leave each other in this life.

Liu Yixuan believed that Shen Lige had been deceived since he was a child and was originally a victim. He had not made great contributions in eradicating Lu Yuan and Xie Hao, participating in the battle in the north, and arresting the prince. He planned to find out. The emperor was stopped by Liu Yikang. The emperor naturally knew the deep love between Liu Yikang and Shen Lige, and also knew all of Shen Lige's righteous deeds. However, the prince's confession before his death mentioned Shen Lige. Even if the emperor wanted to let Shen Lige go, You have to stop the crowd first.

Unexpectedly, Shen Lige already knew all this. In the evening, Shen Lige carefully prepared dinner for Liu Yikang. Liu Yikang joked that if he continued to eat like this, he would become a fat man when he came back in three months. Liu Yikang held Shen Lige and looked at the Kongming Lantern in the sky, missing their days on the boat. , Shen Lige finally found her family after so many years of wandering, and was lucky enough to meet Liu Yikang. For her, everything is so precious and difficult to let go of.

They have finally found a peaceful life, and they will definitely be happy, just like Now we will never be separated. Liu Yikang finally saw that the emperor agreed to spare Shen Lige's life. When he happily returned with the imperial edict, Shen Lige had already committed suicide by taking poison.

After three years of resting the army and raising soldiers, coupled with the effect of the New Deal, the people were enthusiastic about joining the army. The combat strength in the northern border had returned to pre-war and was still increasing. Liu Yikang asked Liu Yixuan to step up the purchase of war horses. He is currently negotiating long-term cooperation with Tuyuhun. In a few days, they will send envoys over for business negotiations. Liu Yikang asked Shen Feng to go with him at that time. Shen Feng believed that with their current strength in the Song Dynasty, reaching cooperation would not be a problem.

Liu Yixuan drafted a memorial to carry out the selection process and gave it to Liu Yikang for review. Liu Yikang was very satisfied. Once the selection process was implemented, more talented children from poor families could become officials in the court and become virtuous ministers in the court. There will be more and more good generals. Liu Yixuan lamented that the new policy has achieved outstanding results, the court is also governed by officials, and the people live and work in peace and contentment. Their original wish has finally come true.

Liu Yikang walked into the Zhijian Hall and remembered what Shen Lige said back then. He was the witness of the Song Dynasty. He must remember the mission and responsibility he carried, because every common person in the Song Dynasty had the same desire as her. For happiness, he must be strong, protect them with her love, and create a beautiful country for the people. But now his wish has been realized, except for Shen Lige.
