Chen Jialuo and the heroes follow the trail of the convoy escorting Wen Tailai back to the capital Beijing and they reach Hangzhou. In Hangzhou, Chen meets Qianlong, who is travelling in disguise, and by coincidence they strike up a friendship. However, later when the duo recognise each other, they become wary and suspicious of the other. Qianlong’s best warriors are defeated by the society’s heroes in a martial arts contest and Qianlong feels humiliated. He wants to summon his army to eradicate the society, but refrains from doing so as he is aware of the society’s strong influence in Hangzhou.

When Chen Jialuo finally rescues Wen Tailai, he is shocked to hear that the Qianlong Emperor is not a Manchu at all, but in fact, a Han Chinese. Even more shockingly, Wen reveals that Qianlong is actually Chen’s older brother, who has been replaced at birth with the Yongzheng Emperor’s daughter. Chen Jialuo and the heroes take Qianlong hostage and try to persuade him to acknowledge his ethnicity. They suggest that he use his power and status to drive the Manchurians out of the Central Plains and affirm that he will still remain in power after doing so. The emperor agrees reluctantly and both sides come to a truce.
