Li Shaoyou is caught up in a wrongful case: someone has been committing murders under his name, and the victim's family insists that the culprit was “Divine Constable Li Shaoyou.” The newly appointed judicial officer has an old grudge against Li Shaoyou and hastily convicts him, sentencing him to await execution. Su Wan'er refuses to believe her cousin could be a murderer. She investigates through the night and finds the real culprit, but the execution has already begun. She storms the execution ground alone and breaks the executioner's broadsword with a single punch. Just as she is about to rescue Li Shaoyou, the prefect arrives on horseback, shouting, “Stay the blade!” The real culprit has been caught, and the judicial officer is dismissed. Li Shaoyou clings to Su Wan'er and cries his eyes out.
