Episode 16

As both women, He Weifang felt pity when she saw Lianzhou suffering and decided to help her.She once had a prescription that could fuse two pollen to produce rashes, which made people mistakenly think it was abscess.Pei Zhong was ruthless to Lianzhou and would definitely drive her out when he saw this.In this way, the lotus boat can get out smoothly.Lianzhou was grateful for this and advised He Weifang to leave Jiang Changyang as soon as possible. Because King Ning had already raised suspicions about Jiang Changyang, He Weifang was afraid of being implicated.

Lianzhou's words made He Weifang alert. When she recalled Jiang Changyang's scene of tearing up the contract in the store yesterday, she felt a change in her premonition and hurried to find Jiang Changyang.Sure enough, the Dali Department of the imperial court issued an order that Jiang Changyang was corrupt and abused the law and wanted to arrest him.Jiang Changyang explained in every way that the source of the silver was innocent, but the people from Dali Temple ignored it and even raided his home.Because the case is still under investigation, Jiang Changyang has not been detained in prison, but once the evidence is conclusive, he will face severe torture.

After He Weifang prepared the medicine for the lotus boat, he was about to send it to Pei's mansion, but he couldn't wait for anyone to come.In the end, Lianzhou's maid pushed the truck and sent her out.It turned out that Pei Zhong tortured Lianzhou to death.He Weifang felt heartbroken when she saw the tragic situation of Lianzhou bleeding from seven orifices and her face was covered with blood.She personally handled the funeral for Lianzhou and let her leave the world decently.

Recalling Lianzhou's past in Jiang Changyang's mansion, He Weifang lamented that women had a weak fate and hated the cruelty of the patriarchal society.At the same time, she felt guilty for not being able to lend a helping hand earlier.Jiang Changyang saw that He Weifang was full of worries, so he comforted her not to blame herself too much.It is a good deed to treat poor families for free.I just hope that politics will be clear and there will be no atrocities in the world.

After He Weifang learned Jiang Changyang's feelings from Xuexi, she wanted to express her feelings to him, but Jiang Changyang was hesitant and even deliberately kept a distance.After learning that the officials who impeached Ning Wang were assassinated and their families were thrown into the river, he even blamed himself even more and did not dare to implicate He Weifang.

When the emperor learned that the honest official was murdered by King Ning, he was very angry and decided to take action in advance to attack King Ning's forces.Jiang Changyang also began to mobilize troops to protect the safety of the palace.At the same time, he planned to evacuate He Weifang from Chang'an before he took the initiative, so that she could stay away from the threat of King Ning.He Weifang is also paying close attention to Jiang Changyang's news and is working to raise gold, silver and fine materials in case of emergency needs.
