Following his recent epiphany, a resolute Richt embarks on a quest to reunite with Peony, accompanied by his loyal subordinates. This "Stern Crew" provides the chapter's central focus, with their wholesome and comedic dynamic contrasting sharply with the incompetence of the heavily criticized imperial guards. The aide, Andy, continues to be the breakout star, celebrated by readers as the MVP and a relatable "mood" for his comically reluctant participation and desire for sleep. The group is characterized as a "rag-tag" party, whose antics provide levity amidst the serious plot. While Richt's crew rallies around him, Peony is shown to be heartbroken, convinced he never loved her. The chapter balances the angst of the couple's separation with the heartwarming loyalty of Richt's followers, effectively moving the plot forward while solidifying Andy's fan-favorite status.
