Episode 19: Xie Jingshu was in a state of despair all day long

After Li Mengjue left quietly, Xie Jingshu seemed to have lost his soul, and he was distracted every day.On an ordinary afternoon, a pickpocket stole Liu Yuan's wallet, and Xie Jingshu encountered danger during the pursuit.At this critical moment, Li Mengjue, who had been observing secretly, appeared, and she quickly rescued Xie Jingshu.

It turns out that all this was a scene carefully planned by Xie Jingshu. His purpose was to lure out Li Mengjue, who had been guarding everyone in the dark.After returning to the inn, both of them felt extremely complicated.Li Mengjue was devastated by Lu Xier's departure, while Xie Jingshu regretted the hurtful words he impulsively said to Li Mengjue by the lake.After some in-depth communication, the two finally solved the knot in their hearts, and their feelings for each other became deeper.However, Li Mengjue seemed to be worried. She told Xie Jingshu that no matter what happened in the future, she hoped that he could believe in her unconditionally.

Five days later, Xie Jingshu returned to the outskirts of Gyeonggi and found that Yuan Ji's grave had been disturbed, which strengthened his belief that Yuan Ji was not dead.In Huachao Tower, Xie Jingshu unexpectedly met Yuan Ji, and what shocked him even more was that Li Mengjue turned out to be from Yuan Ji.On the other side, Jing Yan did not feel relieved after retrieving Lu Xi'er. Instead, he looked sad. Faced with Xie Jingshu's inquiry, he chose to remain silent.

Xie Jingshu and Li Mengjue began to analyze the current situation, and they found that someone seemed to be secretly following them.The next day, Jingyan and Lu Xier went out to inquire about Yin Sanniang, but when Lu Xier left, they unexpectedly met Liu Yuan who was begging.Jingyan brought Liu Yu'an back to the inn, and with Liu Yu'an's help, everyone realized that they had overlooked an important clue-the goddess.However, when the goddess was mentioned, Liu Yu'an looked troubled.Therefore, Xie Jingshu and Li Mengjue decided to go to the goddess in person to inquire about Yin Sanniang.

Bai Rui, who secretly came to Pingzhou, learned that Xie Jingshu and Li Mengjue learned the residence of Yin Sanniang from the goddess, and she decisively killed the goddess.When everyone came to Yin Sanniang's residence, they found that one of the paintings and the decoration of the home were full of mistakes.In order to prove his innocence, Liu Yuan proposed to let his brother Liu Chaoming testify.Before going to Liu Mansion, Xie Jingshu suggested going to a secret place first.They came to Fang Zhibo's hiding place.It turns out that Bai Rui has a good friend in Gyeonggi Province, it is Fang Zhibo.

Everyone entered the house and found that there was an altar in the courtyard that was exactly the same as in Bai Rui's house, and assassins in black kept appearing.Xie Jingshu and Li Mengjue decided to deal with these assassins first, but Lu Xier, who was hiding Fang Zhibo alone, unexpectedly encountered soldiers and was captured.Xie Jingshu and his party met Liu Chaoming, who directly admitted that he was involved in Bai Rui's death, and deliberately threw out the news that Bai Rui and Fang Zhibo were northern barbarians to confuse everyone.In the end, he even threatened Lu Xier's life and asked everyone to hand over Fang Zhibo.

Liu Yu'an felt desperate after learning that Liu Chaoming had betrayed the country. He presented the evidence he found to Jing Yan in the hope of receiving leniency.At this time, news of Fang Zhibo's suicide came, and everyone discovered that everything Liu Chaoming did was actually to save the country.Li Mengjue went to see Bai Rui as agreed, but failed to see her.She followed a dark shadow to Hua Chao Tower, and Yun Shanjun insisted that no one else was hiding here.So, Li Mengjue asked Yunshanjun about the news about a branch of Artemisia on the snow, but Jun Yunshan told her that the Haibo map in her hand was fake, and claimed that there was another man and a woman who were also looking for the Haibo map and a branch of Artemisia on the snow, and thisLi Mengjue knew both of them - one of them was Bai Rui.

As soon as Li Mengjue left Huachaolou, she bumped into Xie Jingshu who was traveling at night. She mistakenly thought that Xie Jingshu was the one who took away the real picture.Just as the two were at war with each other, they encountered an assassin again, so they decided to join forces to defeat the enemy.
