Episode 10: Liu Chaoming meets Xie Jingshu

In the bustling capital, Li Mengjue accidentally discovered the unusual relationship between Liu Chaoming and Xie Jingshu.Liu Chaoming was a man of letters on the surface, while Xie Jingshu was a wealthy businessman.But Li Mengjue was keenly aware that the information revealed in Xie Jingshu's words was far more than that.

Through in-depth observation and detailed analysis, Li Mengjue began to doubt Xie Jingshu's true identity.Faced with Li Mengjue's questioning, Xie Jingshu acted unusually calm. He understated that he was a general under the command of Dingbei Hou.However, this explanation did not completely eliminate Li Mengjue's doubts.

Soon, Xie Jingshu came to the mountain courtyard where Yuan Ji was located.The conversation between Yuan Ji and Xie Jingshu revealed that Xie Jingshu's motivation for participating in Liu Chaoming's incident was not simple.Yuan Ji bluntly pointed out that Xie Jingshu's real purpose may be to attract the attention of the Holy Emperor.Faced with Yuan Ji's accusation, Xie Jingshu chose to remain silent.Despite this, Yuan Ji still insisted on preventing Xie Jingshu from continuing to explore the whereabouts of a branch of artemisia on the snow, but Xie Jingshu was determined and unmoved.

Later, Xie Jingshu and Li Mengjue went to Dingbei Hou Mansion together.There, Li Mengjue finally revealed Xie Jingshu's true identity.It turns out that Xie Jingshu is not only a general, but also a secret agent sent by the Holy Emperor to investigate an important case in Pingzhou.Li Mengjue was deeply shocked to learn the news, and she confessed her true origin to Xie Jingshu for the first time.The death of her father is also inextricably linked to a branch of Artemisia on the Snow. Therefore, she hopes to go with Xie Jingshu to Pingzhou to find the truth.

During the investigation, Li Mengjue and Lu Xier unexpectedly discovered Bai Rui's figure in Huachao Tower.However, their actions were accidentally caught by Jing Yan.In order to prevent Lu Xier from misunderstanding that he was lingering in the romantic place, Jingyan pulled Xie Jingshu and quickly evaded.Unfortunately, they accidentally knocked down Liu Yuan during their escape.Liu Yuan chased after him angrily, and Li Mengjue and Lu Xier also happened to go upstairs.

Liu Yu'an stopped at the door and asked Jing Yan to apologize.In order to avoid attracting the attention of others, Jingyan had no choice but to drag Xie Jingshu and Liu Yuan and hide behind the bed.At this time, a prostitute came in and was intimate with a woman on the couch.The three people behind the bed accidentally made a noise, alerting the client.The woman fled out of the door in panic, while Li Mengjue followed the sound into the room.In order not to be misunderstood and tarnish his image, Xie Jingshu quickly cooperated with the client and performed a trick of "doctor diagnosis".

However, just as everyone was packing up, they accidentally discovered Bai Rui's body in the wing of Huachaolou.Li Mengjue pretended to faint and escaped, but his doubts about Xie Jingshu became more and more serious.Li Mengjue and Lu Xier, who returned to Xie's Mansion, began to doubt Xie Jingshu's true identity and purpose.They felt that Xie Jingshu was knowledgeable and too calm at critical moments.At the same time, Jingyan also felt resentful because of Xie Jingshu's concealment.
