About this episode

KING SUEN is pleased that CHUN and YIM have become amicable with each other. QUEEN DOWDAGER is overjoyed at the imperial sorcerer's prediction that CHUN is pregnant with a boy. KING SUEN complains to YING and other officials as they chill out together. YING's mother, MADAME AN-CHU, has fallen ill. WAI visits her. She deduces from the large quantity of cosmetics YING has bought that he is in love with someone. The fact that YIM has woken up from her coma and that CHUN is pregnant with a boy worry LORD SHUN YEUNG. He discusses with LAI as to how to prevent CHUN's baby, who will become KING SUEN's successor, from being born. CHUN miscarries. KWAI and his wife are convinced that YIM is to blame. TUEN-MUK's investigation finds that CHUN's miscarriage was the result of the YIM's home-made rice crackers. Though unwillingly, KING SUEN puts YIM under house arrest.
