He only wanted to live an ordinary life, but his wife Wen Yue only wanted to buy a house and land.The family is often noisy but also happy.In an accident, the family was involved in the sensational plum ship case. As each case was solved, the family each showed their talents and embarked on a wonderful journey of solving the case, solving endless family problems and growing up.In the end, the family of five re-recognized and accepted each other, and each gained their own growth. Together, they exposed the hypocrisy and evil deeds of the mastermind behind the scenes, safeguarding the happiness of the small family and the well-being of the people of Bianliang.

Episode 1

During the Qingming Festival, the Bianshui River thawed, and grain ships from the two Zhejiang Roads sailed into Tokyo, the capital of the Northern Song Dynasty, which is today's Kaifeng.As the center of the world, the imperial court ordered the entire city to celebrate the festival for seven days from now on.The city is bustling with music, drums and music, lights are bright, merchants on both sides of the Bian River are like clouds, and the variety of goods is dazzling.People flocked to the streets to admire the lanterns, pray and make wishes, and some even went boating on the river to enjoy the beautiful scenery on both sides of the river.

Zhao Buyu, the clerk of Dali Temple, had no intention of enjoying the beautiful scenery and hurried to Hongqiao of Bianhe River, where he and his family agreed to enjoy the fireworks together.At the same time, Daizhao of the Hanlin Painting Academy was also looking for creative inspiration on the bridge. He was staggered by the crowd, but fortunately Zhao Buyu came to his aid in time.Zhao Buyu accidentally saw Zhang Zeduan's paintings, bluntly said that they lacked soul, and requested that his family be included in the paintings.Later, Zhao Buyu and his family gathered on the bridge to enjoy the fireworks feast.

Wen Yue came by boat. She has a pretty face and graceful figure, which is even more impressive against the backdrop of fireworks.Zhao Buyu saw his wife from a distance and called her to come to the bridge to enjoy the scene together.Wen Yue makes a living by making paper umbrellas and has just returned from delivering goods.Zhao Buyu handed the lantern made by his son Zhao Moer to Wen Yue, lit it and released it into the sky, and the family made a wish together.Wen Yue's biggest wish is to buy a mansion in the capital, and Zhao Buyu vows to work harder to realize his wife's wish.

However, the good times did not last long. Wen Yue was bullied by Gan Liang, the inspector of the left army in Kaifeng Prefecture, because he took a big order from Taifu Temple.Gan Liang heard that Wen Yue had taken the order and went to collect the bill in person, scaring the customer into running away.Wen Yue didn't want to get entangled with Gan Liang and had prepared some money early, but Gan Liang took advantage of it and took advantage of Wen Yue.After Zhao Buyu learned about this, he hurried home, but was punched and kicked by Gan Liang, and the umbrella shop was also smashed into a mess.

Regardless of the pain, Zhao Buyu took Wen Yue to Songjiaqiao Wazi to watch a theater to celebrate the fifteenth anniversary of their acquaintance.On the stage, Wen Yue received a note with the word “dagger” written on it, recognized it as the secret code of Jiangnan water bandits, and followed the little girl who sent the letter away.Zhao Buyu discovered that his wife was missing and anxiously searched for her.Wen Yue was cornered by Gan Liang in the theater warehouse and was teased and threatened.In desperation, Wen Yue pulled out her hairpin and stabbed Gan Liang to death.

Zhao Buyu rushed over after learning of Wen Yue's whereabouts and found Gan Liang dead.In order to protect his wife, Zhao Buyu hid Gan Liang's body in the troupe's head props.The troupe boy pushed the props backstage, and Zhao Buyu took the opportunity to move the body and blend it into the stage.In the chaos, he hinted that Wen Yue would follow him and leave.After learning about Gan Liang's disappearance, Kaifeng Prefecture's left army commander Wanfu and patrol officer Gu Zhen rushed to round him up, but found nothing.In the end, Zhao Buyu and Wen Yue tied Gan Liang's body to the bottom of the boat and buried it in the woods.

In the dead of night, Zhao Buyu became suspicious of Wen Yue's murderous methods.Wen Yue went out early in the morning, and Zhao Buyu followed him, but was stopped by Zhang Zeduan to discuss the painting.Wen Yue took the opportunity to disappear into the crowd.Gu Zhen and Wan Fu came to Hongqiao successively, and Zhang Zeduan painted in a teahouse.At this time, a large sailboat sailed under the Hongqiao Bridge. Due to the speed of the ship, the mast was not lowered in time, causing the ship's hull to lie horizontally under the bridge.Suddenly there was a loud noise, and thick fog billowed on both sides of the bridge. When the thick fog dissipated, colorful auspicious clouds appeared in the sky, and the people cheered.However, many corpses floated down the bridge, which was horrifying.

Episode 2

When the huge ship slowly passed under the bridge, a thick fog appeared in the sky.As the fog gradually dissipated, a gorgeous colorful auspicious cloud appeared on the horizon. The people thought it was a good omen and cheered for the Song Dynasty together.

After the fog completely dissipated, many corpses floated on the river. Not far away, a raft floated quietly, with a pig's head hanging on the sail, and a piece of paper hanging next to it that read “行道道, a greedy pig will be treated.A sign with eight bloody characters.At this time, a man suddenly emerged from the bottom of the river, and Gu Zhen immediately ordered Wanfu to go and catch him.Zhao Buyu vaguely felt that the man looked like Wen Yue. He hurriedly stepped forward to take a closer look, but the man had quickly covered his face and swam away.

Although Wanfu sent people into the water to hunt him down, the masked man had already disappeared without a trace.At this time, Zhao Buyu caught a glimpse of Wen Yue with wet hair passing by in the crowd. He immediately chased after him, but was blocked again by Zhang Zeduan, who wanted to discuss the painting with him.But Zhao Buyu was anxious and had no thoughts, so he left in a hurry.Wan Fu was puzzled that the big ship disappeared out of thin air, while Gu Zhen remembered an old case fifteen years ago. At that time, Li Yan, the deputy envoy of Liangzhe Road, was arrested under Hongqiao on his way to Beijing to report on his duties.kill.

Zhao Buyu returned home with a lot of worries. Zhao Mo'er and Zhao Pan'er were celebrating him and Wen Yue, but they both had their own concerns, tested each other, and each concealed the truth.Zhao Buyu recalled how they met.Fifteen years ago, Li Yan and his entourage were killed. As a scribe of Dali Temple, Zhao Buyu went to the river to watch the excitement, but was accidentally pushed into the river.When he went to a clothing store to buy dry clothes, he happened to meet Wen Yue who was also buying clothes.

When two officers and soldiers came to the store to investigate, Wen Yue panicked.In order to protect her, Zhao Buyu lied that the two were an unmarried couple and successfully deceived the officers and soldiers.Wen Yue was grateful for his life-saving grace and lied that she was an orphan and a refugee, and also joked that she was the murderer of Li Yan.But Zhao Buyu fell in love with Wen Yue at first sight.

Zhao Pan'er and Zhao Mo'er hosted a banquet to celebrate the fifteenth anniversary of the acquaintance of Zhao Buyu and Wen Yue, and excitedly talked about the bizarre events on Hongqiao today.Zhao Pean'er noticed that Wen Yue's hair was wet when she came home, and Wen Yue lied that she was going to see a bamboo merchant.Both were preoccupied.After the bamboo merchant brought the snacks, Wen Yue reminded everyone not to eat them yet.Zhao Buyu took the opportunity to push the others away, showed off his cards to Wen Yue, concluded that the masked man on the river was her, and decided to leave Tokyo with his whole family.

Wen Yue opened the snack box and found a threatening letter inside: If you don't see the Dali Temple files tonight, I will kill your whole family.”Zhao Buyu came to the street and saw officers and soldiers registering people who had fallen into the water and had wet clothes.After Dillon, the director of Dali Temple, came after hearing the news, Gu Zhen asked him for the files on Li Yan's murder case, but Dillon found various excuses to evade it.

After Zhao Buyu heard the conversation between Gu Zhen and Dylan, he took the initiative to come to Gu Zhen to express his goodwill.He said that he could memorize the contents of Li Yan's file, as long as Gu Zhen could find him a job.Gu Zhen was puzzled as to why he wanted to change jobs.Zhao Buyu told what happened last night: there was a fire in the warehouse of Dali Temple, and only some old files were burned.Dylan asked him to take the blame for the drunken Luo Zhun, because Luo Zhun was a relative of the Minister of Civil Affairs.Dylan promised to promote Zhao Buyu and raise his salary afterwards, but he posted a notice announcing his expulsion early in the morning.

Zhao Buyu not only memorized the contents of Li Yan's file, but also made suggestions for Gu Zhen.Dylan was very dissatisfied with this and spoke harshly to Zhao Buyu.But Gu Zhen not only took Zhao Buyu under his command, but also entrusted him with important responsibilities.Dylan had no choice but to leave angrily.Zhao Buyu asked for the list of people who fell into the water from the officers and soldiers, and saw Wen Yue's name.He wanted to copy a new list, but the officers and soldiers declined and handed the list to Gu Zhen.At this time, the pig's head on the sail suddenly opened its mouth. Gu Zhen hurriedly went to check and found a toad hidden inside.Zhao Buyu took the opportunity to rewrite a list and remove Wen Yue's name.

The imperial court ordered Kaifeng Mansion to find the real murderer within three days.Wanfu reported on the progress of the case: the owner of the big ship was named Mei, and someone rented the ship for a large sum of money.The deceased were all stabbed to death by sharp weapons, but their identities have not yet been identified.Everyone whose clothes got wet after falling into the water has an alibi.And some time ago, a man named Xiao came to the capital with a group of people holding fake customs clearance documents.

Gu Zhen asked Zhao Buyu to introduce the case of Li Yan's murder fifteen years ago.Li Yan was beheaded, and the rest of his entourage were also killed with sharp weapons, exactly the same way as these people died today.Zhao Buyu clearly remembered that Di Lun investigated Li Yan's case and caught three murderers at that time.Wanfu suspected that Dylan had done something wrong and allowed the murderer to commit another crime.Dylan gritted his teeth at this.

Zhao Buyu suggested looking into Xiangrui's origins to find out the truth, but Dylan stopped him loudly and called Gu Zhen aside.He was worried that Cha Xiangrui would anger the court and affect Gu Zhen's career.But after careful consideration, Gu Zhen decided to start investigating from Xiangrui.

Episode 3

Gu Zhen resolutely ignored Dylan's objections and ordered Zhao Buyu to start with the auspicious signs that mysteriously appeared on the river to find the real culprit who set up this mechanism.Zhao Buyu was unable to do anything about this, so he turned to his younger brother Zhao Mo'er, who was proficient in institutions. Zhao Mo'er was a close disciple of Jue Zhang Yong.

At the same time, Wen Yue dispatched a chariot and horse shop clerk to deliver the paper ox and paper horses used for sacrifice to Dali Temple. The officers and soldiers of Dali Temple felt like they were facing a formidable enemy. Dylan was so angry that he could not speak, and the people gathered aroundThere was a lot of discussion in front of the Dali Temple.Wen Yue pretended to be an ordinary citizen and sneaked into the archives to try to find files related to Li Yan's case.

Zhao Mo'er stood silently beside the boat with a pig's head hanging on it and a letter written in blood for a long time. Wan Fu was extremely anxious because the court had issued a death order to solve the case within three days, but they still haven't found any clues.

Zhao Moer made a suggestion to start the investigation from Xiangyun, because there are contraband in the raw materials for making Xiangyun.Gu Zhen then sent Wanfu to investigate the people who purchased these raw materials, and asked Zhao Moer to conduct experiments.When Wen Yue searched the case library, she found that the files on Li Yan's case had been burned. Just as she was about to leave, officers and soldiers suddenly arrived with craftsmen. Wen Yue was forced to show up, and used the umbrella she carried as a cover to quickly kill the officers and soldiers.After uniforming, he left quietly.

Wanfu came back with the purchased raw materials, but the only thing missing was the bitter soil.Zhao Moer insisted on gathering all the raw materials and asked Wanfu to continue looking for the person who bought the bitter soil.Wan Fu was eager to make a deal and tried to force Zhao Mo'er to sign the dossier, but Song Qiyu, a Jinke Jinshi who was present, wrote down everything one by one.Song Qiyu claimed to be a newspaper dental detective, so Wanfu had to send people to continue searching for Kutu.

Dali Temple was heavily surrounded by officers and soldiers. Wen Yue had nowhere to escape and could only use the sewer to escape.This sewer is called Wuyou Cave by Jiangnan water bandits, and it was Wen Yue's refuge twenty years ago.Wen Yue came to the underground water channel again. Recalling the dark years in the past, she was terrified and fled in a hurry.

Zhao Zhuer came to the temporary morgue where the Hongqiao case was held. When he carefully inspected the wounds on the corpse, he found that the co-worker Yao He was behaving abnormally outside.Song Qiyu decided to support Zhao Moer and truthfully report the truth of the Hongqiao incident.After Zhao Moer successfully gathered all the raw materials and conducted experiments, they determined that sulfur and bitter soil were the key ingredients for making auspiciousness, and followed this clue to find the ship containing sulfur.

Zhao Buyu deliberately misled Wan Fu, making him mistakenly believe that he was investigating Fuling and his junior sister, but he was actually trying to protect Wen Yue.Wan Fu restored the situation at the time of the crime based on his own speculation, while Zhao Buyu found new clues from Zhang Zeduan's paintings.Zhao Moer reported the investigation results to Gu Zhen, and Gu Zhen decided to investigate in depth starting from that ship.Zhao Buyu also reported his ideas to Gu Zhen and received Gu Zhen's appreciation and support.

Officers and soldiers searched carefully along the Bianhe River and finally discovered the Mei Chuan hidden inside a large ship.Zhao Mo'er found the ship's catamaran structure and light paulownia wood material to be very special.Dylan tried to stop Gu Zhen from continuing to trace Xiangrui's origins, but Gu Zhen remained unmoved.Zhao Moer found the incense burner and mixture that made the smoke on the ship. Zhao Buyu deduced the whole process of the case based on this, and suggested that the investigation should start with the Tianzhu people who made the auspiciousness.Gu Zhen agreed to his suggestion and invited Zhao Buyu to join Kaifeng Mansion.

However, just when Zhao Buyu and Zhao Mo'er were about to go home, Zhao Pan'er hurried over to tell them the news of Wen Yue's accident.

Episode 4

Wen Yue used the killer's unique knife skills to end Gan Liang's life. This behavior aroused Zhao Buyu's vigilance.After the Hongqiao case broke out, Wen Yue's various actions became increasingly mysterious, making Zhao Buyu worried.So, he sent Zhao Pean'er home to visit Wen Yue, but Wen Yue left quietly without taking any clothes or jewelry, leaving only a letter to Zhao Buyu.

Recalling the scene on the fifteenth anniversary, a man named Xiao Yishui once brought snacks to Wen Yue.From the captain's mouth, Zhao Buyu also learned that Xiao Yishui had led a group of people to look for Poria and a certain junior sister.Zhao Buyu secretly speculated that Wen Yue might be the junior sister mentioned by the group.This thought made him more and more frightened.He took back all the money from Zhao Mo'er and Zhao Pan'er, and hurried to Fu Ling's place to find out the news.

It turned out that Wen Yue had received a threatening letter hidden in a snack box from her senior brother Xiao Yishui. The letter demanded that she must find the file on Li Yan's murder case that night, otherwise her whole family would be killed.In order to protect his family, Wen Yue chose to leave home quietly.Recalling the past fifteen years ago, she was still filled with fear.At that time, Master Shui Dagger decided to kill Li Yan on Qingming Festival and made a careful plan.Although Wen Yue knew that Li Yan was an upright official, she could not convince Shui Dagger to show mercy.In the end, the water dagger rose and fell, ending Li Yan's life.

Zhao Buyu came to the flower boat to look for Poria cocos, paid the fee according to the rules, and asked her about Xiao Yishui and his group.Fu Ling admitted that Xiao Yishui once asked her to deal with four boatmen.On the deserted lake, four boatmen were drinking and having fun, while Poria and the girls dressed up as mermaids came to seduce them.Soon, they took the bait and followed Poria into the boat.At this time, a group of people took the opportunity to board the ship.Through Fu Ling's mouth, Zhao Buyu learned that Xiao Yishui was having fun in Fan Lou.

At the same time, Wen Yue also came to Fanlou to look for Xiao Yishui.Xiao Yishui searched her whole body and felt relieved after confirming that she was not carrying weapons.He has already coveted Wen Yue and plans to return to the Water Bandits Gang with Wen Yue with the file.However, Wen Yue flatly rejected his request and used the excuse that he did not have the file with him.Xiao Yishui became so angry that he vented all his anger on his subordinates, and even beat them to death in a fit of anger.

When Zhao Buyu rushed to Fanlou, he saw from a distance that Gu Zhen and Wan Fu were looking for their boss to inquire about the whereabouts of a batch of pig heads.The boss quickly explained that the pork had been left behind and the pig's head had been discarded.Gu Zhen learned from his boss that Xiao Yishui was in Fan Tower at the moment, so he took Wan Fu to look for him without saying anything.

Xiao Yishui once again persuaded Wen Yue to follow him back, but Wen Yue was curious about why he wanted the files on Li Yan's case.Xiao Yishui expressed his intention to avenge his father Shui Dagger.It turned out that someone hired a water dagger to kill Li Yan fifteen years ago.Shui Dagger took Wen Yue and others onto Li Yan's boat and killed them all.However, the officers and soldiers of Dali Temple arrived quickly and killed Shui Dagger.The case was summarily concluded with a mob killing the corrupt official.But Wen Yue clearly remembered that Shui Dagger was killed by the officers and soldiers of Dali Temple.Xiao Yishui expressed doubts about this and believed that someone had reported the news to Dali Temple in advance, otherwise the officers and soldiers would not have arrived so quickly.

At this moment, Gu Zhen and Wan Fu suddenly brought people in and became suspicious of Xiao Yishui and Wen Yue.Upon seeing this, Zhao Buyu hurriedly stepped forward to rescue Wen Yue and lied that the two of them were here for a private meeting.Wen Yue made an excuse to come to Xiao Yishui to buy bamboo.Xiao Yishui claimed to be a Sichuan businessman and fell in love with Wen Yue at first sight.However, Gu Zhen did not believe what they said and checked Xiao Yishui's identity information.

At this moment, Dylan suddenly brought people to Fanlou and called Xiao Yishui brothers and chatted about family affairs in public.Seeing this, Gu Zhen had no choice but to take people away and Dylan also left soon after.At this time, only Zhao Buyu, Wen Yue and Xiao Yishui were left.Xiao Yishui ordered the two of them to be tied up, but Wen Yue took advantage of his unpreparedness to untie the rope and took Xiao Yishui hostage.Xiao Yishui had no choice but to agree to let Zhao Buyu go but suspected that Wen Yue had not obtained the file on Li Yan's murder case.Wen Yue urged Zhao Buyu to leave first, but Zhao Buyu was worried about Wen Yue's safety and memorized the file on Li Yan's case word for word on the spot.

After Xiao Yishui let Wen Yue go, he couldn't wait to know the identity of the person who settled the case and suspected that he was the person who framed his father.Zhao Buyu recalled that the person who signed the contract was Cheng Rui, the judge of Dali Temple, but this person died three years ago.However, Xiao Yishui determined that the person who framed his father was still alive and the person who created auspiciousness today was also this person.So Xiao Yishui deliberately sabotaged Xiangrui in order to induce that person to show up.

Xiao Yishui took out the secret letter written by that person to his father and compared it with the handwriting of someone hired to make auspicious things today and found that they were exactly the same.Xiao Yishui wanted to get the files on Li Yan's case for comparison, but Wen Yue had to admit that the files had been burned.Xiao Yishui therefore determined that the person who set the fire was the culprit of this series of cases and immediately took people to investigate.Before leaving, he also told Wen Yue to wait for him to come back.

After careful consideration, Wen Yue decided to confess her life experience to Zhao Buyu.She lost her parents when she was a child and became a refugee. Later, she was forced to join the Jiangnan water bandits.Gan Liang found out her details and threatened her, so she had no choice but to kill him.Xiao Yishui pretended to be a bamboo merchant and came to discuss business with Wen Yue and let her watch the whole process of his destruction of auspiciousness.Afterwards, Xiao Yishui forced Wen Yue to go to Dali Temple to steal the files.After listening to Wen Yue's narration, Zhao Buyu's heart was filled with complex emotions.

After careful consideration, Wen Yue asked Zhao Buyu to sign the divorce letter she had prepared in advance, but Zhao Buyu firmly disagreed and burned the divorce letter.Wen Yue knew that Xiao Yishui would definitely come to her, so she didn't want to implicate Zhao Buyu and gave him all her savings in the hope that he could buy a big house.However, Zhao Buyu was very angry about this and wanted to find his father Zhao Li for comment.When Zhao Mo'er and Zhao Pan'er learned that Zhao Buyu and his wife were going to divorce, they were anxious.After Zhao Li came over after hearing the news, Wen Yue admitted that she took the initiative to ask for divorce because she had not given birth to a son and a half for the Zhao family in so many years.But Zhao Li thought this was Zhao Buyu's problem, while Zhao Mo'er and Zhao Pan'er worked hard to keep Wen Yue.

Early the next morning, Zhao Buyu took Zhao Moer to the big mule and horse shop to buy horses.He soon took his fancy to a horse from a man whom he had bought fifteen years before.After some haggling, the two parties finally concluded the deal.However, at this moment, Zhao Moer suddenly discovered a suspicious Tianzhu man buying horses.There were actually traces of burnt saltpeter, bitter earth and sulfur on his sleeves.At this moment, someone was holding a dagger and wanted to assassinate the Tianzhu man. Zhao Buyu shouted to scare the killer away, picked up the Tianzhu man and left in a hurry.

Episode 5

Zhao Buyu and Zhao Moer asked a killer to help track him, and they took the foreigner from Tianzhu to escape into a secret tunnel for safety.Zhao Buyu had already calculated in his mind that this Tianzhu man must have been instructed by someone to create the so-called auspicious omen. He asked sternly to find out who was behind the scenes.

Going back half a year, this Tianzhu man arrived in Tokyo with two traders. He made a living by performing fireworks in Wazi, but he was unexpectedly captured by the officers and soldiers of Dali Temple.Later, he was taken into a dark room by an official and forced to create auspiciousness.Although he couldn't clearly recall the official's face, he was deeply impressed by the ring on his finger that was engraved with “波波波狠”.

When Zhao Buyu heard about this, he couldn't help but be shocked, because he realized that the official the Zhu people were referring to that day was Di Lun.At this time, there was a strange noise outside the window, and Zhao Buyu alertly realized that someone was eavesdropping.He quickly arranged for Zhao Moer to monitor the Tianzhu people, while he went out to hunt down the eavesdropper, but he had no choice but to escape without a trace.When he returned, the Tianzhu people were nowhere to be seen. Zhao Moer suggested going to Kaifeng Mansion to report the case, but the Tianzhu people were afraid of the government.

Zhao Buyu decided to buy a white horse and asked Zhao Moer to bring it back to Wen Yue, and attached a letter asking her to leave Tokyo, a place of right and wrong, as soon as possible.However, Wen Yue noticed something strange, and after questioning, Zhao Moer had to tell the truth.After learning that Zhao Buyu had asked someone to meet at the Hulk Cemetery in the eastern suburbs, Wen Yue hurried there without saying a word.

On the other side, Zhao Buyu went to find Gu Zhen and Wan Fu to expose Dylan's crimes.It turns out that Dylan had hired a murderer to kill Li Yan fifteen years ago, and now he is repeating his old tricks to create auspiciousness for evil purposes.Dylan had already expected that the matter would be exposed, so he stood still just to find out who was behind it.He sent people to assassinate the Tianzhu people, but failed.When the Tianzhu people revealed Dylan's identity to Zhao Buyu, the men killed him and returned to Dylan.Dylan sent people to keep a close eye on the suspects and designed to kidnap Zhao Buyu and Wen Yue.

After receiving Zhao Buyu's letter, Dylan came to the appointment with two bottles of wine.Uncharacteristically, Zhao Buyu claimed to have mastered Dylan's secrets and exposed his scandals one by one.Dylan knew that Zhao Buyu knew more than that, but he still pretended to be calm.Zhao Buyu bluntly pointed out the master behind Di Lun, and asserted that Di Lun would get a good job as a miscellaneous merchant in Taifu Temple after his success, but now this good job has been taken by a person named Wei.Dylan was stunned when he saw the evidence on the purchase order.Wen Yue arrived in time and fought bravely to kill the enemy, but was still held hostage by Dylan's men.Dylan ordered the two men to be burned to death, while Zhao Buyu argued with Dylan to delay time.

Dylan was filled with grief and anger. He told his life experience and experiences, but still refused to reveal the identity of his master.He lit the flame with his own hands, intending to turn Zhao Buyu and Wen Yue into ashes.Zhao Buyu and Wen Yue held hands tightly and vowed to renew their relationship in the next life.At the critical moment, Gu Zhen and Wan Fu arrived and rescued the two.However, Dylan took the opportunity to escape and tried to join forces with Gu Zhen to bring down his master.Gu Zhen took off his hat and revealed the words on his forehead, admitting that he had been Li Yan's follower.

Gu Zhen raised his knife and ended Dylan's life in an instant.He was curious about how Wen Yue escaped from that disaster.It turns out that Wen Yue always believed that Li Yan was an upright and good official, but her master Shui Dazi was obsessed with it and actually killed Li Yan and was subsequently silenced.Wen Yue took advantage of the chaos and jumped into the river, thus saving his life.Now, Gu Zhen finally avenged Li Yan. He felt relieved and showed tolerance and understanding towards Wen Yue.

Zhao Buyu survived this life-and-death disaster, but his heart could not be calm for a long time.Wen Yue is always by his side, giving him comfort and strength.However, Zhao Buyu still had a trace of worry in his heart. He was afraid that Xiao Yishui would come to trouble Wen Yue.Wan Fu was puzzled by this. He didn't understand why Gu Zhen wanted to kill Dylan in front of Zhao Buyu and Wen Yue.In fact, Gu Zhen deliberately left this excuse in front of them. He hoped that in this way, he could establish a deep friendship with the couple.

Episode 6

On the street bulletin board, Kaifeng Mansion posted a notice announcing the capture of Xiao Yishui, and gave a special commendation to Zhao Buyu for his heroic behavior. Although only his surname was mentioned, Zhao Buyu was preparing to pay tribute to Zhao Buyu.When the onlookers were showing off this honor, Gu Zhen sent Wan Fu to look for him.As Wanfu walked into Kaifeng Mansion, Zhao Buyu saw a stone tablet with the names of previous governors engraved on it. The name of Bao Zheng, his idol, was clearly listed, so he bowed respectfully.

Gu Zhen imprisoned Xiao Yishui in the dungeon of Kaifeng Mansion and assigned Zhao Buyu to be responsible for the interrogation.Zhao Buyu was afraid that Xiao Yishui would expose Wen Yue's true identity, so he tried every means to refuse, but in the end he was no match for Gu Zhen's hard work.In the end, Zhao Buyu reluctantly faced Xiao Yishui and told him that Dylan was dead and was the mastermind behind the death of Xiao Yishui's father.Xiao Yishui was shocked by the news. Zhao Buyu showed Dylan's suicide note and pointed out that if he had not killed Dylan, he and Wen Yue would have died long ago, so Xiao Yishui could only give up.

Zhao Buyu eagerly asked Xiao Yishui during the interrogation whether he had told others about Wen Yue's identity. After learning that only Gan Liang knew about it, he breathed a sigh of relief and continued to ask Xiao Yishui about his intention to come to Tokyo.It turned out that Xiao Yishui received a task. Someone provided clues about his father's murder and a gold tooth, claiming that the murderer was the person who created the false auspiciousness and entrusted him to destroy the false auspiciousness.

Xiao Yishui became attached to Wen Yue because of the Li Yan case and vowed to find her after he was released from prison, which made Zhao Buyu very angry.Later, Zhao Buyu met Gu Zhen in the backyard and found the vegetable garden he had planted. He speculated that this was to commemorate Li Yan.The two chatted happily, and Gu Zhen revealed that the mastermind behind Dylan was Zou Mian, who held a grudge against Li Yan for his impeachment.Zhao Buyu also speculated that there was a force behind Xiao Yishui, and the two sides were competing against each other.

Gu Zhen vowed to bring down Zou Mian. Zhao Buyu admired him, but was also worried about Zou Mian's huge power.After experiencing the test of life and death, Zhao Buyu returned to a peaceful life and worked with Wen Yue to manage his life.On the other hand, when Zhao Mo'er and Zhao Pan'er were queuing up to buy steamed buns, they ran into Sun Bo, who had disappeared for a long time, but were treated indifferently by him.

Zhao Moer discovered errors in his articles at Jixiantang Bookstore, but was ignored by his boss. He also showed his boss a manpower-saving sorting method, but was expelled and Song Qiyu was also implicated.When Zhao Pan'er was an apprentice in a medical clinic, she was fired for using excessive force.Zhao Buyu planned to change his career to become a litigator, but he waited a day and failed to see Mr. Huang.Wen Yue's favorite house was snatched away by Zhang Qiniang, and she was almost in danger.At the same time, a bizarre murder occurred in Tokyo city, and Wu Xiang was killed by a monster shaped like a hat.

Episode 7

Rumors spread that Wu Xiang was killed by the hat demon. This incident was exactly the same as what happened five years ago, and the people were panicked.Because Sun Bo had a dispute with Wu Xiang, and his neighbor pointed out that Sun Bo had sneaked into Wu's house last night, Wan Fu insisted that Sun Bo was the murderer.Sun Bo explained that he was just going to pay back the money for the steamed buns, but no one believed him.Sun Ao even claimed to have witnessed the hat demon emerging from the Wu family, and Wan Fu was even more convinced that Sun Bo had impersonated the hat demon to commit murder.

Zhao Mo'er learned about this and resolutely defended Sun Bo, but was warned by Wan Fu not to meddle in other people's affairs, otherwise Zhao Buyu would be affected.Zhao Mo'er firmly believed that Sun Bo was wronged, so he turned to Yao He to conduct an autopsy. However, Yao He was timid and fearful and would not dare to take over unless Zhao Pan'er helped.Although Zhao Pan'er longed to become Dr. Ge's apprentice, she was turned away and driven away by her clerk.Zhao Mo'er arrived in time to vent her anger for Zhao Pan'er and took her with her for the autopsy.

Zhao Pean'er examined Wu Xiang's body meticulously, while Yao He stood by in fear.However, Zhao Pan'er did not discover the cause of Wu Xiang's death.Zhao Moer suggested sneaking into Wu's house at night to look for clues.At the same time, Wen Yue accompanied Zhao Buyu to visit Mr. Huang, and he liked him and made Mr. Huang's favorite snacks with his own hands.Mr. Huang readily accepted Zhao Buyu and asked him to buy the lawsuit book.Zhao Buyu was already familiar with the contents of the book, so he chose the cheaper Xiangran Street stall.

Wen Yue accompanied Zhao Buyu to Xiangran Street and told him to ask Doctor Ge to take Zhao Paner in after closing the stall.The next day, Zhao Buyu came across a lively scene in front of Zhang Qiniang's house while setting up a stall. It turned out that Zhang Qiniang had offered a large reward to catch the monster because the Wu family's hat demon incident had affected the market of the house.At this time, an old woman came to cry, claiming that her son, Mr. Ji, died inexplicably while teaching piano in the Zhang Mansion, but was kicked away by the maid of the Zhang Mansion on the grounds of sudden illness.

Zhao Buyu sneaked into Zhang's house and saw Zhang Qiniang and the housekeeper singing and dancing through the crack in the door.After being discovered, he falsely claimed that he had worked in a crematorium and smelled the smell of young men being incinerated.Zhang Qiniang took out Mr. Ji's ashes to fertilize, and Zhao Buyu promised to work for Zhang Qiniang, otherwise he would be willing to do flower fertilizer.On the other side, Zhao Moer was worried. Zhao Paner wanted to ask Zhao Buyu to let Zhao Moer see Sun Bo, but he was worried about being scolded, so he took Zhao Moer to find Wen Yue for help.

Zhao Moer returned home and sat in the yard, lost in thought.When Zhao Pean'er saw this, she felt pity and wanted to ask Zhao Buyu to help Zhao Mo'er meet Sun Bo.So, she went to Wen Yue for help.After Wen Yue learned that Zhao Pan'er had been fired by Dr. Ge, she couldn't help but complain that Zhao Buyu didn't help.Zhao Pan'er was worried that Zhao Buyou would blame her for being troublesome, so she pulled Zhao Mo'er away in a hurry.

On the other side, Zhang Qiniang personally took charge of the monster catching conference, and the scene was very lively.Song Qiyu also came to join in the fun and happened to meet Zhao Moer and Zhao Paner.They went to find Yao He together, but met Song Qi Yu unexpectedly.When Zhao Pean'er learned that Song Qiyu and Zhao Moer had done experiments together, she became curious and pulled Song Qiyu to ask questions.Yao He saw this and became jealous, so he left in a hurry on the pretext of buying food for Zhao Pan'er.

Zhao Pan'er was thinking about clues about the Wu family and wanted to take advantage of the chaos to find them.Song Qiyu also wanted to find some material for news reports, so the four of them went to Wu's house together.At this time, two officers and soldiers sent by Kaifeng Mansion sneaked away because they wanted to go to the monster catching conference.The four took the opportunity to enter Wu's house. Yao He was trembling with fear and kept praying.Zhao Pan'er, Zhao Mo'er and Song Qiyu carefully investigated and did not miss any corner.

However, the officers and soldiers soon returned.Seeing this, the four people had no choice but to climb over the wall and escape.Fortunately, Wen Yue arrived in time and rescued them.At this time, the mages were stirring in the hot oil pan, mumbling words, claiming to capture the cat demon.Zhao Buyu didn't care, and washed his hands directly in the oil pan, exposing the scam of the mages in public.

Suddenly two hat monsters floated in the sky, and the people panicked and shouted.Zhao Buyu knocked down the hat demon easily. It turned out to be just two hat-like lights.He announced in public that there was no such thing as a hat demon in the world. Upon hearing this, Zhang Qiniang called Zhao Buyu away.Upon seeing this, Zhang Zeduan quickly drew this scene.

After Wen Yue heard the news about the appearance of the hat demon, she took Zhao Pan'er, Zhao Mo'er, Song Qiyu and Yao He to the scene.But he happened to see Zhao Buyu getting into Zhang Qiniang's car.Wen Yue asked them to pretend not to see it, so as not to cause trouble.When Zhao Buyu returned home early in the morning, he found that the door was locked.In desperation, he could only climb over the wall and enter.But he didn't expect that Wen Yue had been waiting for a long time, smelling and smelling on him, as if looking for some clues.

Episode 8

Wen Yue witnessed Zhao Buyu boarding Zhang Qiniang's carriage with her own eyes, and she was angry that he had not returned all night.In the early morning, Zhao Buyu quietly climbed over the wall and returned home, but his body exuded the scent of rouge, which convinced Wen Yue that he had an affair with Zhang Qiniang. She was so angry that she was unwilling to listen to Zhao Buyu's explanation.Zhao Buyu was extremely anxious and wanted to clarify to Wen Yue, but found that she was no longer willing to pay attention to him.

At this time, Zhao Mo'er and Zhao Pan'er also came after hearing the news. They were also suspicious of Zhao Buyu's whereabouts last night.In order to save the situation, Zhao Buyu hurriedly took out iced lychees to please them. The two were immediately attracted and took the lychees aside to share.Wen Yue, on the other hand, was in a heavy heart and had no intention of preparing breakfast. He only gave Zhao Mo'er and Zhao Pan'er some money to eat out, and promised to cook for them after returning from the umbrella shop in the evening.Zhao Buyu asked to eat honey tofu, but Wen Yue ignored him.

On the other side, Zhang Qiniang was deeply in love with Zhao Buyu's heroic performance in capturing the Hat Demon, so she invited him to the Nuan Pavilion and tried every means to seduce him.However, Zhao Buyu always sticks to the bottom line, making it clear that he has a family and deeply loves his wife Wen Yue.He offers to help investigate the Hat Monster case, but only for the bounty.This made Zhang Qiniang very angry.

Wen Yue came to Zhang Qiniang early in the morning and wanted to argue with her.But the guys stopped her from entering, and Wen Yue knocked them down easily.Kang Qian came after learning about it and ordered the two newly recruited guards to deal with Wen Yue, but Wen Yue subdued them with only an iron rod and a yam.Kang Qian guessed that Wen Yue came for the house in Wheat Straw Lane, so he greeted her with a smile and invited her in. Zhang Qiniang also came out to greet her in person.

Since Wen Yue didn't return for a long time, Zhao Buyu made dinner by himself.Zhao Mo'er wanted to wait for Wen Yue to come back to make yam porridge, while Zhao Pan'er curiously asked why Zhao Buyu went to help Zhang Qiniang catch the hat demon last night.Zhao Buyu did not dare to tell the truth and could only make up various reasons to cover up.When he learned that Wen Yue had also seen him getting into Zhang Qiniang's carriage, he complained even more, explaining repeatedly that he was just trying to earn reward money to buy a big house.But Zhao Mo'er and Zhao Pan'er didn't believe it at all and sneered at his behavior.

Zhao Li accidentally discovered the one hundred taels of gold and mistakenly thought it was a reward from Zhang Qiniang to Zhao Buyu, reminding him not to earn such ill-gotten gains.This made Zhao Buyu even more speechless.Zhang Qiniang invited Wen Yue to make a facial mask. Wen Yue couldn't wait to know the truth about Zhang Qiniang's visit to Zhao Buyu last night.Only then did Zhang Qiniang find out that Wen Yue was Zhao Buyu's wife, so she sneered at her and deliberately exaggerated that Zhao Buyu peeled lychees for her.Not to be outdone, Wen Yue counterattacked by saying that Zhao Buyu often washed her feet with the same hands used to peel lychees.This made Zhang Qiniang so angry that she was speechless.

In order to calm down the Hat Demon incident, Zhang Qiniang sent Kang Qian to give Wanfu a sum of money, hoping that he could help solve the problem.However, Wanfu disclosed the matter to Gu Zhen and asked him to assist Zhao Buyu in investigating the case.Zhao Buyu discovered some clues during the investigation and went to the women's sumo wrestling ring to inquire about the news.At this time, Zhang Qiniang suddenly appeared and wanted to investigate the case with him, but Zhao Buyu flatly rejected her.

Episode 9

Zhao Buyu found a jar of Qibai powder in the boudoir of Wu Xiang's sister Wu Qiao, but Wu Qiao insisted that she had never used it.In order to find out the truth, Zhao Buyu went to the Rouge Shop to inquire about the situation, but Zhang Qiniang followed him like a shadow.From the clerk, Zhao Buyu learned that Wu Qiao was actually a regular customer of Qibai powder, consuming as many as two boxes every month.

At this time, Wen Yue happened to come to the rouge shop to buy hand cream. As soon as she entered the door, she saw Zhang Qiniang tightly entangled with Zhao Buyu. She was filled with anger and wanted to leave with Zhao Buyu.However, Zhang Qiniang made excuses to stop him, mocking Zhao Buyu for being a henpecked man.Zhao Buyu scolded Wen Yue with a serious face, and Wen Yue had no choice but to leave alone.

On the other side, Zhao Moer was busy making aircraft. He purchased saltpeter and other raw materials, and with the help of Zhao Paner, Song Qiyu and Yao He, after repeated trials, he finally successfully produced an aircraft.He concluded that the hat demon relied on this method to fly.

In the process of sorting out clues, Zhao Buyu gradually suspected that Wu Qiao might be the murderer of Wu Xiang.He directly confronted Wu Qiao and pointed out Wu Xiang's evil deeds and the suffering Wu Qiao and Wu Ao had suffered.He noticed that there were traces of being burned by an oil lamp on Wu Qiao's sleeves, but Wu Qiao made excuses in every possible way, claiming that he was physically disabled and unable to commit the crime.However, Zhao Buyu had already discovered the stains under Wu Qiao's skirt and suspected that she was pretending to be disabled.

Wu Qiao sadly recounted her experience. It turned out that she had been used by Wu Xiang to make money.On the night of the incident, Wu Xiang asked Wu Qiao for money after losing money, and the two killed Wu Xiang in a fit of rage.After hearing this, Zhao Buyu felt pity and decided to take her to Kaifeng Mansion to surrender.

At this time, Wanfu was full of praise for Zhao Buyu and wanted to celebrate with him by drinking.However, Wen Yue suddenly appeared, and Wan Fu was so frightened that he left quickly.Wen Yue questioned Zhao Buyu's relationship with Zhang Qiniang. Zhao Buyu told everything about what happened at Zhang Qiniang's house that night, but Wen Yue did not believe him.

Gu Zhen heard the clues from the sidelines, and he took out the baggage with the word %dagger written on it to testify for Zhao Buyu.It turned out that Zhao Buyu had received an order to kill Zhang Qiniang, but he knew that it was sent to Wen Yue and chose to conceal it in order to protect her.Now that the deadline is approaching, Zhao Buyu has no choice but to ask Gu Zhen for help.

Gu Zhen took Zhao Buyu to the noble man to inquire about Zhang Qiniang's details, and learned that her adoptive father was Zou Mian, a man in the south of the Yangtze River.The two then went to a perfume store to take a bath to remove the rouge smell from their bodies, and asked Gu Zhen to conceal the matter from Wen Yue.However, when Zhao Buyu acted coquettishly towards Wen Yue, Wen Yue pushed him away angrily and decided to take the order.

On the other side, Zhao Moer and Zhao Paner encountered the hat demon incident when they visited Sun Bo, who had just been released from prison.Zhao Buyu learned during his communication with Gu Zhen that Wu Qiao had confessed, but the matter was not simple.At this time, Zhao Moer hurriedly came to report that Zhang Qiniang had brought people to Zhao's house...

Episode 10

Zhao Pean'er went out to look for Sun Bo and encountered a hat demon on the way. She quickly took out the small crossbow she carried with her and shot down the hat demon accurately.Afterwards, she returned home happily and reported the adventure to Zhao Buyu, which attracted people around her to watch.

Zhao Moer picked up the hat-like prop and after careful inspection, he found that it was stained with gunpowder.This kind of gunpowder was originally added by soldiers to speed up the flight of crossbow arrows. When Zhang Qiniang saw this, she greatly appreciated Zhao Moer.Zhao Buyu was worried that Zhang Qiniang would pester Zhao Moer, so he promised to capture the hat demon as soon as possible and advised Zhang Qiniang to return home and wait for the news.However, Zhang Qiniang thought that Zhao Buyu's family was extraordinary, and insisted on staying in the Zhao family, and even asked to live in the same house with Zhao Buyu and his wife.

Zhang Qiniang not only renewed the bedroom furniture, but also purchased a large bed, planning to sleep with Zhao Buyu and his wife.Zhao Buyu complained secretly in his heart, but Wen Yue saw that Zhang Qiniang refused to leave, so he had to take out the bag containing gold and revealed the secret that someone hired her to assassinate Zhang Qiniang.

Zhang Qiniang relied on the support of her adoptive father Zou Mian to act recklessly in Tokyo, thus offending many people.She was willing to pay ten times the price for Wen Yue to protect her, but Wen Yue was not interested. Instead, he wanted to take the opportunity to find the person who hired her and uncover the truth about the hat demon incident.Zhang Qiniang agreed to serve as bait and decided to take Wen Yue back home the next day.

That night, Zhang Qiniang, Zhao Pan'er and Wen Yue slept in the same bed. Zhang Qiniang kept asking Wen Yue questions, but Wen Yue ignored them, while Zhao Pan'er stepped forward to warn Zhang Qiniang.Early the next morning, Zhao Buyu got up early to prepare breakfast. Zhang Qiniang joked that he was afraid of his wife. In fact, it was Zhao Buyu's first time cooking because Wen Yue was about to leave for Zhang's mansion.Zhao Buyu made no secret of his love for Wen Yue in front of Zhang Qiniang, which made Zhang Qiniang both envious and jealous.

After breakfast, Wen Yue left in Zhang Qiniang's carriage, and Zhao Buyu's family said goodbye reluctantly.Later, Zhao Buyu asked Zhao Pan'er and Zhao Mo'er to assist him in investigating the hat demon incident. This was the fourth day he took the order.Gu Zhen sent someone to summon Zhao Buyu to Kaifeng Mansion. It turned out that Kang Qian had drank with a nobleman from the Imperial City Division before his death. The nobleman was arrested on suspicion of murdering Kang Qian.

The noble man repeatedly cried out for injustice and insisted that he did not kill Kang Qian.Zhao Buyu and Gu Zhen patiently comforted him and persuaded him to tell the truth.Zhongguiren revealed that the hat demon incident was actually a farce planned by Kang Qian.Five years ago, a hat demon appeared in the Yanglou Street area, causing housing prices to plummet. Zhang Qiniang took the opportunity to purchase a large amount of real estate.Later, news spread that the government was planning to build a garden here, and house prices soared instantly, making Zhang Qiniang a huge fortune.

Wanfu carried the noble man into prison on the grounds that he could not find the key.Gu Zhen concluded that Kang Qian's death was related to the hat demon, so he took Zhao Buyu to Kang Qian's house to learn about the situation.For convenience, Gu Zhen asked Zhao Buyu to call Zhao Pan'er to go with him.They found that Kang Qian's home had a lot of rouge and gouache, but only one box of lipstick was missing. They also noticed the scars on Chunxi's arm from the soldering iron.Zhao Buyu paid special attention to the Fugui Sihexiang and found a large bronze mirror in the room.Chunxi explained that these were prepared by Kang Qian to please Zhang Qiniang.

Zhao Moer went to the mortuary to assist Yao He in the autopsy. She said goodbye to Zhao Buyu and left.Zhao Buyu took the opportunity to propose to Gu Zhen that Zhao Mo'er should enter Kaifeng Mansion, but Gu Zhen did not respond directly.Zhao Buyu noticed that the tea stall proprietress opposite Kang Qian's house had been staring at them, so he and Gu Zhen went up to drink tea and inquire about the situation.They found that the proprietress also used the expensive Fugui Sihe incense, and admitted that it was a gift from Kang Qian, and asked her to help take care of Chunxi.

Gu Zhen and Zhao Buyu concluded from the burns on Chunxi's arm that Kang Qian abused his wife during his lifetime, so they sent people to keep an eye on Chunxi.Zhao Pan'er, Zhao Mo'er and Yao He examined Kang Qian's autopsy together and found that he was poisoned by poison in his lipstick.Wanfu found out that Zhao Siwu, Yan Shun and Chen Xiaoyi often delivered goods to Chunxi's family, so he arrested them for questioning.They provided delivery records from the past three months, but there was no poison in them.Zhao Buyu asked Wanfu to release them.

However, Zhao Buyu discovered that Chen Xiaoyi was behaving abnormally, so he deliberately asked Wanfu to release them and sent someone to follow them.He suspected that Chunxi and Chen Xiaoyi had teamed up to use the hat demon incident to kill Kang Qian.Wanfu personally followed Chen Xiaoyi and found that he went home directly without taking the job.Zhao Buyu came to Chen Xiaoyi's house to look for clues, but unexpectedly found that Sun Bo also lived here.

Zhao Buyu went to the art academy to look for Zhang Zeduan and found that Zhang Zeduan had been chasing the painting hat demon on Yanglou Street.He looked carefully at Zhang Zeduan's paintings and found that everyone on the street was looking at the Hat Demon, except Chunxi, who was looking at an errand boy.Zhao Buyu recognized that the errand boy was Sun Bo.

Episode 11

After Wu's Restaurant closed, Zhao Pan'er still missed the steamed buns there.Zhao Moer suddenly recalled that Sun Bo often visited Yanglou Street, and the Wu family restaurant was located there, so he speculated that Sun Bo had a close relationship with the Wu family brothers and sisters.Sun Bo and Zhao Mo'er have been mischievous and playing with gunpowder since they were young, which makes Zhao Mo'er suspect that he is involved in the Hat Monster case.

Zhao Buyu went to Gu Zhen with Zhang Zeduan's paintings, and discovered the subtle eye contact between Sun Bo and Chun Xi from the paintings, which hinted that the relationship between the two was unusual.He believed that Sun Bo created chaos with the Hat Demon and allowed the neighborhood ladies of the Kang Qian sect to relax their surveillance of Chun Xi, allowing them to meet Chun Xi secretly.At this time, Gu Zhen also remembered that Wu Qiao had asked about Sun Bo's situation.

Zhao Buyu came to the prison to visit Wu Qiao and lied that Sun Bo had confessed. Wu Qiao was emotional and tried his best to defend Sun Bo, and was even willing to use all the savings of the steamed bun shop to ask Zhao Buyu for help.Under Zhao Buyu's persuasion, Wu Qiao told the truth: She and Sun Bo were childhood sweethearts, but Sun Bo's family fell into decline and he became an orphan after his parents died.Wu Qiao often secretly gave steamed buns to Sun Bo to eat, but then Sun Bo suddenly disappeared and only reappeared recently.It turns out that both Wu Qiao and Chunxi were residents of Yanglou Street. Chunxi's family encountered misfortune and was adopted as a slave by Zhang Qiniang and betrothed to Kang Qian. However, Chunxi and Sun Bo had been engaged since childhood.

Zhao Mo'er and Zhao Pan'er came to Sun Bo's house, but found that he was no longer there.At the same time, Zhao Buyu and Wan Fu brought people to arrest Sun Bo. Chen Xiaoyi revealed that Sun Bo left all his savings to him.On the other side, in order to wait for Zhao Buyu to catch the hat demon, Zhang Qiniang took Wen Yue back to her house as a hostage, and took her to drink and chat.Zhang Qiniang talked about her experiences, while Wen Yue was curious about the man behind her.

Zhao Buyu discovered that his father Zhao Li was missing and finally found him in the bathhouse.Zhao Li reminded him not to tell the government about taking the order because someone had already hinted at him.Zhao Buyu remembered that tomorrow was the last day to take orders, so he went to Gu Zhen to discuss countermeasures.

Zhang Qiniang continued to drink with Wen Yue, chatting about murder, romantic affairs and other topics.At this time, Wanfu led people to arrest Chunxi, but was snatched away by the officers and soldiers of the Imperial City Division.Gu Zhen found out that Zou Mian's party members in Tokyo were going to have a meeting tomorrow, so he went to find out the truth overnight.After Zhao Buyu learned that the Imperial City Secretary had kidnapped Chunxi, he knew something was wrong and immediately rushed to Zhang Mansion, but was stopped by the guards.There is nothing I can do about it.

Sure enough, Zhang Qiniang drugged Wen Yue into the wine, knocked her out, arrested her, and locked her up with Chunxi.Zhao Buyu decided to rescue Wen Yue and made careful arrangements.Today is the deadline for accepting orders, and Zhao Li told him to rescue Wen Yue safely.

Zou Mian's party members came to Zhang Qiniang to investigate, because the hat demon case caused them heavy losses.Zhang Qiniang was not afraid, and killed shopkeeper Qin on the spot, and proposed to join forces with them to make a big deal: use the hat demon to create chaos in other places to lower the land price and then buy it, and then let the Imperial City Division solve the case.Manager Liu agreed with Zhang Qiniang’s idea, but he didn’t know who to find to create the Hat Monster case.So, Zhang Qiniang used Chunxi as bait to lure Sun Bo out, forcing him to create more hat demons.

Episode 12

Zhang Qiniang took Wen Yue hostage, forcing Zhao Buyu to speed up cracking the secret of the hat demon case.When she discovered that Chunxi and Sun Bo were behind the Hat Monster case, she immediately tied up Wen Yue and monitored her closely.

Zhang Qiniang conspired with Zou Mian, a gangster in Tokyo, to use the Hat Monster case to make a big deal.She used the power of the Imperial City Division to seize Chunxi from the Kaifeng Mansion. She planned to use this as bait to lure Sun Bo and force him to design the Hat Monster case again in an attempt to capture all the real estate in Tokyo.

Zhang Qiniang sent a killer to get rid of Wen Yue, but Wen Yue cleverly took the killer's knife, fought back and untied the rope.After the killer woke up, he started a fierce battle with Wen Yue.At the same time, Zhao Buyu was worried about Wen Yue's safety and went to Zhang Mansion to request her release, but was ruthlessly turned away by the guards.Therefore, Zhao Buyu decided to create a hat demon incident to divert Zhang Qiniang's attention and take the opportunity to rescue Wen Yue.

Zhao Buyu witnessed the hat demon slowly rising into the sky driven by gunpowder, and immediately rushed to Zhang Qi's natal home.At this time, Wan Fu led the officers and soldiers of Kaifeng Mansion to rescue Wen Yue, Chunxi and Sun Bo, but was blocked by Zhang Mansion guards.Just when the two sides were in a stalemate, the hat demon suddenly appeared above Zhang's mansion, causing a panic.The guards fled in all directions, and Wan Fu took the opportunity to lead people into the house.Zhao Buyu took the opportunity to look for Wen Yue.

During the fierce battle, Wen Yue gradually lost strength, and the killer took the opportunity to strangle her neck.Fortunately, Zhao Buyu arrived in time, rescued Wen Yue, and hit the killer hard with a stick.Wen Yue was worried about reinforcements and pulled Zhao Buyu to evacuate quickly.

On the other hand, Zhang Qiniang brutally tortured Chunxi and Sun Bo.After feeling bored, she decided to take a rest.At this time, the waiter hurriedly came to report that a hat demon appeared in the house.Although Zhang Qiniang knew that the hat demon was fake, everyone in the house was panicked and she was anxious.

Sun Bo took the opportunity to break free, comforted Chunxi, picked up a knife and rushed into the yard, killing Zhang Qiniang's accomplices.Zhang Qiniang threatened Chunxi's life and forced Sun Bo to put down his sword.However, Sun Bo held Zhang Qiniang hostage.After Wan Fu and others arrived, they advised Sun Bo not to be impulsive.But Sun Bo hated Zhang Qiniang so much that he didn't listen to the advice at all.Chunxi heard the news and rushed to stop Sun Bo, and Sun Bo let go of Zhang Qiniang.

Zhang Qiniang left proudly and cursed at Sun Bo.Chunxi couldn't bear it anymore and stabbed Zhang Qiniang's body from behind.Before she died, Zhang Qiniang realized that she had offended too many people, but she never expected that she would die at Chunxi's hands.Chunxi admitted his crime of killing Kang Qian and chose to commit suicide to apologize.Sun Bo cried bitterly while holding Chunxi's body, and everyone present was moved by it.

After Wanfu successfully solved the Hat Monster case, he met Gu Zhen who was returning from investigating the case.He couldn't wait to report the investigation results to Gu Zhen.Gu Zhen took him to the stone tablet with the list of previous governors of Kaifeng Prefecture to cheer him up.Although Wanfu knows that his abilities are limited, he is willing to eliminate harm for the people.Gu Zhen was deeply gratified and gave his sword to Wan Fu as a souvenir.

After Sun Bo was imprisoned, Zhao Moer felt heavy.Zhao Pan'er comforted her not to be too sad.Zhao Buyou bought high-quality hand ointment for Wen Yue and applied it to her personally.Wen Yue guessed who was behind all this, but Zhao Buyu advised her not to think about it again.Wen Yue always felt like someone was spying on them, which made her feel uneasy.

Zhao Buyu pleads with Gu Zhen, hoping that he can give Sun Bo a lighter sentence.But Gu Zhen also said he was helpless.Sun Bo revealed that there was also an issuer behind him.Gu Zhen asked Zhao Buyu to try to find this person, and invited the couple to help the Kaifeng Mansion.Zhao Buyu couldn't make the decision, but Gu Zhen had successfully convinced Wen Yue.

Gu Zhen gave Zhao Buyu a reward and told him that Xiao Yishui was exiled to Salmon Island.Zhao Buyu immediately told Wen Yue about the matter.Wen Yue wanted to give Xiao Yishui a gift, after all, they were brothers and sisters.Zhao Buyu agreed to accompany her.In the prison, Wen Yue brought a jar of wine to Xiao Yishui.Xiao Yishui asked Wen Yue to wait for him to come back and renew their relationship, but he also revealed that the person who issued the order had bribed the jailer who escorted him.However, on the way, someone killed the jailer and let Xiao Yishui go.

Xiao Yishui escaped by chance and came to the agreed place.Despite his disguise, Wen Yue recognized him at a glance.Suddenly someone walked past Wen Yue and stabbed Xiao Yishui in the neck.Wen Yue hurriedly chased the killer, but Zhao Buyu forced her back home.Wen Yue complained that Zhao Buyu should not have stopped her, but Zhao Buyu expressed his willingness to accompany her to face the grievances in the world.However, Wen Yue knew that Jianghu was dangerous, and she did not want to implicate Zhao Buyu, so she packed her things and went to the umbrella shop overnight.

Recalling the past, Zhao Buyu thought of Wen Yue's umbrella-making skills and their marriage.Wen Yue mastered the umbrella-making craft in two years as an apprentice and opened an umbrella shop.Later, she took the initiative to propose marriage to Zhao Buyu, and the two soon became husband and wife.

Episode 13

In order to get rid of Zhang Qiniang, the person who issued the order paid a lot of money to hire Wen Yue to take action.However, Zhang Qiniang died at the hands of Chunxi.Wen Yue knew that the person who issued the order would not let her go easily. In order not to implicate Zhao Buyu, she decided to move back to the umbrella shop overnight despite Zhao Buyu's dissuasion.

After Wen Yue left, Zhao Buyu was filled with sadness and sat alone in the yard meditating.When Zhao Pan'er saw this scene, she felt anxious and hurriedly went to persuade Wen Yue.Wen Yue lied that this move was to encourage Zhao Buyu to make more progress.Zhao Pan'er took the opportunity to reveal to Wen Yue her idea of ​​​​wanting to be a widower. After hearing this, Wen Yue fully supported it and asked her to go home to supervise Zhao Buyu.Zhao Pan'er believed it was true and went home happily.

After carefully reviewing the files on Xiao Yishui's murder, Gu Zhen had doubts in his heart. He suspected that the murderer was the person who issued the bill to Wen Yue.Since there might be a traitor in Kaifeng Mansion, Gu Zhen handed the case to Zhao Buyu for investigation and asked him to report the progress of the case at any time.In order to share the pressure for Wen Yue and to prove his strength, Zhao Buyu vowed to investigate the case thoroughly.

At the same time, Song Qiyu introduced a carpentry job to Zhao Moer.Zhao Moer happened to meet Song Qiyu when he was delivering wood to Anjiyuan in Taoyuan.While the two were chatting, Song Qiyu revealed that he was preparing for the imperial examination, hoping to do something practical for the people after passing the exam.After hearing this, Zhao Moer also felt yearned for it. He hoped to enter Dali Temple to seek justice for poor people like Sun Bo.

Under the leadership of Song Qiyu, Zhao Moer had the opportunity to visit Dongshui Qizi of Nanshan Tea House.They lectured and preached here, attracting many students to come and listen.However, when Song Qiyu entered the house, he had a quarrel with Kong Er, a Jinke Jinshi.Although Kong Er made rude remarks, Song Qiyu didn't take it to heart.He took Zhao Mo'er to see Zhang Mei, one of the seven sons of Dongshui.After Zhang Mei heard about Zhao Moer's method of cracking the hat demon case, she offered to introduce him to the governor of Kaifeng.But Zhao Moer politely declined this kindness.Zhang Mei also suggested that Zhao Moer go to Taixue to study law, while Dunzi Zheng Min warmly welcomed Zhao Moer to attend the class.

In order to thank Song Qiyu for his help, Zhao Moer invited him to come to his house for dinner tonight.After Zhao Buyu learned about it, he hurried out to buy wine and food to prepare the entertainment.At the dinner table, Zhao Moer publicly announced his decision to take the imperial examination and enter the Dali Temple.However, Zhao Buyu knew that the water in Dali Temple was very deep, and thought that Zhao Moer's upright personality was not suitable there.

Zhao Buyu has been thinking about how the murderer used what kind of knife to kill Xiao Yishui.In order to find clues, he went to the pig butcher to inquire.After learning from the butcher's daughter Xiaoxiao that the knives used to cut tabloids in Jixiantang Bookshop were very sharp, he immediately went to check.At the same time, Wen Yue also received a tabloid from a neighbor and smelled the same smell as the one on the bill.She immediately realized that this might be a clue and hurried to Jixiantang Bookstore.

In the bookshop, Wen Yue and Zhao Buyu met unexpectedly.Both came in search of clues.Suddenly, Wen Yue discovered that the murderer of Xiao Yishui was at the scene.She immediately gave chase, but the murderer escaped over the wall.Wen Yue chased after her, and Zhao Buyu followed closely behind.In the end, Wen Yue chased the murderer in the mule and horse shop.But she saw Song Qiyu's figure from a distance.After Zhao Buyu arrived, the two left the mule and horse shop together.

Later, when Zhao Moer came to Anjiyuan to look for Song Qiyu, he found that he was teaching children.There is also a collection of poems written by Song Qiyu on the table.It turns out that Song Qiyu’s pen name was Bumosheng.In order to prepare for the exam more conveniently, he moved to Xie's house next to Zhao Moer's house.Aunt Lan and the neighbors came to help with the move.Aunt Lan also reminded Song Qiyu to be careful about the legend of the ghost examiner.But Song Qiyu disagreed with this.

Wen Yue came to him specifically to find out about Song Qiyu's trip to the mule and horse shop.But Song Qiyu denied it.At this time, Zhao Buyu came after hearing the news.But Wen Yue went home without asking any more questions.On the same day, Song Qiyu went to take the imperial examination.Zhao Moer prepared the champion cake for him early in the morning and sent it to the examination room.When he entered, he saw Jianzhuang and Zhangmei, the wives of Dongshui Qizi, also present.They asked Zhao Moer to persuade Song Qiyu.Song Qiyu remained silent as he was too stressed to eat.Jianzhuang hired a donkey cart for Song Qiyu to take him to the examination room, and let him eat Zhuangyuan cake on the way.

After sending away the last wave of guests, Wen Yue was about to go back to the house for dinner, but suddenly found the murderer hiding on the roof.At this time, Zhao Buyu hurriedly came to deliver food to Wen Yue.The murderer took the opportunity to stab Wen Yue with a knife. Although Wen Yue tried his best to dodge, his arm was still cut.When Zhao Buyu saw the officers and soldiers of Kaifeng Mansion patrolling here, he immediately shouted for help.The murderer had no choice but to leave the scene in despair.Zhao Buyu bandaged Wen Yue's wound, but Wen Yue knew that the murderer would not let go, so she deliberately said harsh words to make Zhao Buyu go away.

Early the next morning, Zhao Buyu came to deliver food to Wen Yue again.But before the umbrella shop opened, he put the food box at the door and hid aside to observe.He didn't leave silently until Wen Yue opened the door and took the food box into the house.

Episode 14

Zhao Buyu was worried that the murderer would threaten Wen Yue's safety again, so he went straight to Kaifeng Mansion to ask Gu Zhen for help.Gu Zhen generously agreed and promised to send people to protect Wen Yue.Zhao Buyu blamed himself for his lack of martial arts and could only watch Wen Yue being hurt and was helpless.Gu Zhen comforted him not to think wildly, and led him to the stone tablets of past governors, using Bao Zheng as an example to encourage Zhao Buyu to cheer up.Bao Zheng is Zhao Buyu's idol. He has determined to become a good official like Bao Zheng since he was a child and to uphold justice for the people.Gu Zhen's encouragement restored Zhao Buyu's confidence.

The imperial examination came to an end, and Zhao Moer went to the examination hall to greet Song Qiyu.However, Song Qiyu walked out of the examination room in despair, feeling deeply disappointed in the darkness of officialdom.Seeing this, Zhao Moer felt worried and decided to ask Zhang Mei for help.Zhang Mei admired Zhao Moer very much and once again persuaded him to join her sect. Zheng Min also agreed.But Zhao Moer missed Song Qiyu in his heart and just wanted to relieve his knot.

Later, Song Qiyu came to deliver a letter to Zhang Mei, questioning the reality of the imperial examination.Zhang Mei severely criticized him, and Song Qiyu left angrily.Zhao Moer hurriedly caught up and invited Song Qiyu to talk about his worries.Under the influence of alcohol, Song Qiyu confided his inner pain to Zhao Moer, feeling that studying was useless and that he was like a useless person.In order to comfort him, Zhao Mo'er also decided not to take the exam for merit.Song Qiyu finally told his story. He was forced to take the exam for someone else, but he had no ambition but could not realize it.Zhao Moer wanted to report to the police, but Song Qiyu stopped him. He didn't want to become the second victim.

At the same time, Wen Yue is also tracking down the murderer.She once chased the murderer to the mule and horse shop, but the murderer suddenly disappeared.She discovered that Song Qiyu had appeared at the mule and horse shop, so she came to inquire about the situation.Song Qiyu told her that the murderer had bandaged his wounds in the mule and horse shop, and his face was engraved with the mark of seizure by the government.Wen Yue asked Song Qiyu to tell Zhao Buyu about the murderer.

However, at this moment, another corpse with the same death method as Xiao Yishui was found in the suburbs.Zhao Buyu and Gu Zhen rushed to the scene and found that the deceased's hands smelled like mulberries and there was purple on his tongue.They suspected that the deceased had eaten mulberry preserves, so they sent Wanfu to Qingfeng Tower to investigate the guest list.

On the other side, Zhao Paner told Zhao Moer about the faceless corpse.Song Qiyu suspected that the deceased was Kong Er, so he asked Zhao Moer to take him to identify him.Sure enough, the deceased was Kong Er.Song Qi became more worried that he would become the next target, but Zhao Moer advised him not to think nonsense and took him to find Gu Zhen.However, Song Qiyu only wanted to see one person before his death, so Zhao Moer had no choice but to accompany him.

At the same time, Wen Yue is also investigating the cause of Kong Er's death.After she learned from a customer that there was a faceless corpse in the suburbs, she immediately went to the place where Kong Er lived to investigate.She discovered that Kong Er had made a fortune during his lifetime and was dressed gorgeously.Gu Zhen arrived with Zhao Buyu and Wan Fu, and Wen Yue informed them of the results of their investigation.The inn owner also revealed that Kong Er had been singing and laughing with his friends in the room before his death.

However, at this moment, Song Qiyu encountered misfortune.When he took Zhao Mo'er to the Taohuadong brothel to collect the reward for taking the exam, he witnessed the atrocities committed by Jinke Jinshi Zou Yongjin against Ding Bo.Ding Bo also came to ask for a reward for Song Qiyu, but was beaten to death by Zou Yongjin.Song Qi became more and more distraught, and Zhao Moer was so angry that he decided to go to Kaifeng Mansion to file a complaint.However, Zou Yongjin sent his servant to give false testimony, insisting that Ding Bo was extorting money.Zhao Moer exposed Zou Yongjin's crime to his face, but the servant tried to make excuses and gave Wanfu a sum of money.After Wanfu handed over the money, he forcibly drove them away.However, when Zhao Moer found Song Qiyu again, he found that he had been killed.Zhao Moer was horrified. After Gu Zhen and Wan Fu rushed to the scene, they found that Song Qiyu died in the same way as Kong Er.Zhao Buyu came later and took the lost Zhao Mo'er home.After Wen Yue learned about this, she came to deliver food to Zhao Moer early in the morning and comfort her.

Episode 15

The moment Zhao Moer stepped into Taoyuan Jishengyuan, children flocked in, all clamoring to hear Song Qiyu tell stories.However, Zhao Moer's heart was filled with grief for Song Qiyu's tragic death. The pain was beyond words.Upon seeing this, Mr. He quickly took the children away.Wen Yue was worried about Zhao Moer, and then came to Jishengyuan.Zhao Moer revealed to Wen Yue that Song Qiyu had a wish before his death, which was to publish a collection of poems, but this wish became his eternal regret.Wen Yue gently comforted Zhao Moer, hoping that she could get over her sadness as soon as possible.

On the other side, Zhao Pan'er and Yao He conducted a detailed inspection of Song Qiyu's body.They found that Song Qiyu was not only killed with a knife, but also had his face cut off. What was even more heinous was that his abdominal cavity was cut open and filled with various books, which were then brutally sewn back together.Zhao Buyu analyzed that the murderer probably wanted to vent his anger by humiliating Song Qiyu in this way.Gu Zhen tried to find a breakthrough in the case from Zhao Moer, but Zhao Buyu didn't know how to face Zhao Moer.Zhao Mo'er has always regarded Wen Yue as his biological sister, so Zhao Buyu hoped that Wen Yue could talk to Zhao Mo'er.However, he has recently been having conflicts with Wen Yue and they are living in two places.Gu Zhen curiously asked about their situation, but Zhao Buyu could only make excuses at random.

As night fell, Zhao Buyu drank to soothe his sorrows and came to the umbrella shop drunk to look for Wen Yue.He asked Wen Yue to persuade Zhao Moer, and leaned on Wen Yue's shoulder to confide his inner anguish.At the same time, Zhao Pan'er discovered that Zhao Mo'er had not slept all night, sitting alone in the yard in a daze.Zhao Moer suddenly recalled that Song Qiyu went to see Zhang Mei before his death and was scolded by the other party.She ignored Zhao Pan'er's dissuasion and insisted on looking for Zhang Mei.

Early the next morning, Zhao Buyu woke up and saw Wen Yue sitting in the yard, and quickly stepped forward to show concern.Wen Yue told Zhao Buyu about her life experience: her original name was Su Yue, and she was the daughter of a big worker at Taihu Shipyard.Twenty years ago, her family was brutally murdered and she became an orphan, and later became a bandit.When Gu Zhen checked the files, he found Shan Liu who had similar characteristics to the murderer.This person lost his parents since childhood and had an extreme personality. He injured people many times and fled to Yazhou.Zhao Buyu also had doubts about Shan Liu.

At this moment, Wan Fu hurriedly came to report that Zhang Mei was killed in Taixue, and Zhao Moer became the only suspect.Zhao Buyu and Gu Zhen rushed to Taixue and saw Zhao Moer sitting at the door covered in blood, and the gate of Taixue was covered with blood books.Zhao Buyu stepped forward to comfort Zhao Moer, but she remained silent.The onlookers were talking a lot, and Gu Zhen ordered Zhao Moer to be taken back to Kaifeng Mansion.After Wen Yue arrived, she argued with Wan Fu and finally pulled Zhao Mo'er away from the scene.

Wen Yue asked Zhao Moer to go home and rest first, and accidentally mentioned that Song Qiyu had appeared in the mule and horse shop.Zhao Moer decided to go to the mule and horse shop to investigate for clues.Wen Yue was worried and followed him from a distance.In the mule and horse shop, Zhao Moer met an old man who was burning paper and praying for Uncle Ding.When Zhao Moer asked him about Song Qiyu, the old man seemed panicked and forcibly drove her away.Wen Yue appeared in time and persuaded the old man as a family member of a Kaifeng official.The old man revealed that Ding Bo was once a clerk in Song Qiyu's family, and he was kicked out of the house for making mistakes.But Song Qiyu still visited him often, and the relationship between the two was as deep as that of father and son.

In the dead of night, Zhao Moer tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep.She carefully recalled the entire incident, and suddenly remembered the words “松” written by Zhang Mei on the ground before she died.But she thought the word could not refer to Song Qiyu, so she erased it.Zhao Pean'er reminded Zhao Moer to write a letter to Song Qiyu's family to inform them of the funeral.At the same time, Zhao Buyu found the list of students who had missed exams over the years from the Ministry of Rites, and compared it with the list of students who had been missing in the past ten years found by Gu Zhen.He suspected that these people who missed the exam might have been substitute test takers and were later silenced.Zhao Buyu also called up the list of students who passed the examination in previous years and found that students from the Zou family passed the examination every year, and the ones who passed the examination this year were Zou Yeqing and Zou Yongjin.

However, at this moment, Zhuang Qiang, the guardian of the Zou family, brought people to Kaifeng Mansion to file a complaint, claiming that Zou Yongjin was missing.This made Gu Zhen very confused.At the same time, Zhao Pan'er and Yao He made a new discovery when they re-examined Song Qiyu's body: the body exuded a sour smell from years of alcoholism.By comparing the information they learned from Zhuang Qiang and the injuries on the corpse, they determined that the faceless corpse was actually the missing Zou Yongjin.This also means that Song Qiyu may still be alive... Zhao Pan'er immediately told Gu Zhen and Zhao Buyu about this amazing discovery.

Episode 16

Zou Yongjin mysteriously disappeared after being named on the gold list. Gu Zhen assigned Zhao Paner and Yao He to re-examine a faceless corpse with a book hidden in its abdomen, and confirmed that the deceased was not Song Qiyu, but the missing Zou Yongjin.Both Gu Zhen and Zhao Buyu suspected that Song Qiyu was the murderer because Zou Yongjin had hired Song Qiyu to take the exam for him. Not only did he refuse to pay him, he also killed Ding Dalang and humiliated Song Qiyu.

At the same time, Zhao Moer went to Jinzhou to look for Wang Qin, Song Qiyu's hometown, hoping that he could bring a letter to Song Qiyu's family and ask them to come to Tokyo to collect Song Qiyu's body.However, Wang Qin had not seen Song Qiyu for a long time, and there was no one in the Song family, so he spoke harshly to Song Qiyu.As a good friend of Song Qiyu, Zhao Moer had a dispute with Wang Qin and eventually took action.

Wang Qin detailed Song Qiyu's evil deeds in Jinzhou, including his cruel treatment of Ding Dalang and his son Ding Dan.Although Zhao Mo'er didn't believe it, Wang Qin's words were conclusive.Zhao Moer remembered the words "Song" left by Zhang Mei before his death, and suspected that Song Qiyu had killed Zhang Mei, but he was unwilling to accept this reality.

Zhao Buyu informed Wen Yue that Song Qiyu was still alive. Wen Yue had already guessed from Zhao Mo'er's abnormality, and she was worried that Zhao Mo'er would not be able to let go.Zhao Buyu wanted Zhao Moer to persuade Song Qiyu to surrender and promised to defend him.

Gu Zhen, Wan Fu and Zhao Buyu went to Dongshui Qizi's residence. Jian Zhuang did not run away. He had already anticipated this day and took the initiative to hand over the benefits he received from taking the exam, just so that his family would not be implicated.After Gu Zhen agreed, Jian Zhuang confessed about arranging a substitute exam with Zhang Mei, but denied murder.Gu Zhen escorted Jianzhuang away.

Chen Baoshan asked Zhao Buyu for help, saying that on Ding Dalang's first seven days, Song Qiyu suddenly appeared.Chen Baoshan thought he saw a ghost and was terrified.Song Qiyu asked Chen Baoshan if anyone had looked for Ding Dalang before the scientific examination, and Chen Baoshan confirmed that a fat scholar had been here.

Zhao Moer guessed that the visitor was Zheng Dun, one of the Seven Sons of Dongshui, because Zheng Dun learned about Song Qiyu's life experience from Ding Dalang and asked him to take the exam for him.After Wen Yue comforted Chen Baoshan, she discovered that Zhao Mo'er was missing.Zhao Moer guessed that Song Qiyu would go to Zheng Dun, so he waited at Zheng Dun's residence.Song Qiyu came in the rain, and Zhao Moer revealed his true identity as Ding Dan. Ding Dan admitted to killing Song Qiyu and impersonated him to participate in the scientific examination.

After Zheng Dun learned the truth, he threatened Ding Dan to continue taking the exam.Ding Dan vowed to take revenge, but Zhao Moer persuaded him to give up and used his savings to let him leave.After Zheng Dun returned home, Ding Dan saw his enemy and started fighting.Gu Zhen and others arrived in time, but Ding Dan refused to be arrested, took the responsibility and died to apologize.Zhao Moer was heartbroken, buried Ding Dan and carved a tombstone.

Zhao Moer found a note in the Luban lock on the tombstone, which was written by someone to Ding Dan, asking him to find Chen Baoshan to confirm his life experience.Zhao Buyu and Wen Yue guessed that the letter writer was behind the scenes, and Zhao Buyu and Gu Zhen decided to post a notice offering a reward for Song Qiyu's capture to lure him in.Zhao Moer took the initiative to ask for help, and Gu Zhen agreed and reminded him to be careful.Notices were posted all over Tokyo. Zhao Moer pretended to be Song Qiyu, and the murderer pursued him. Later, it was discovered that he was pretending. When he tried to escape, he was caught and killed by Gu Zhen and others.Gu Zhen also found out that Shan Liu had appeared in an abandoned house in the suburbs, but his boss was not allowed to pursue it, so he asked Zhao Buyu to investigate.

Episode 17

Wen Yue and Zhao Buyu set foot in an abandoned mansion in the suburbs. Although the place was devastated, they could still capture traces of human habitation.In the messy cabinet, Wen Yue quickly identified the token belonging to Xiao Yishui, while Zhao Buyu turned out the waistband of Dong Qian, the master of Dali Temple, revealing that Dong Qian was also a victim of Shan Liu.

Recalling that seventeen years ago, Zhao Buyu entered Dali Temple for the first time, full of enthusiasm and eager to solve major cases.By chance, he learned the secret of the Liao Kingdom's detailed joints and ventured there.However, as soon as his code was spoken, he encountered the sharp blade of Xiao Zuo.At the critical moment, Dong Qian stepped forward. Although he was injured, he still kept a close eye on Xi Zuo. Unfortunately, Zhao Buyu's reckless actions disrupted the plan.

Since then, Dong Qian has taken great care of Zhao Buyu, not only taking him to investigate cases privately, but also often inviting him to share delicious meals.The two formed a deep friendship, and Dong Qian's murder has always been difficult for Zhao Buyu to let go.Now, he finally avenged Dong Qian.

On the other side, Zhao Mo'er went to Taixue to register with the dream of gaining fame and fulfilling Ding Dan's last wish.He and Zhao Pan'er visited Anjiyuan together and brought books to the children.However, Zhao Pan'er was indignant at the children's bullying of the little girl Su Su. Su Su's mother Song Ci and sister Song Yingying appeared in time to express their gratitude to Zhao Pan'er.Zhao Moer and Zhao Paner recalled that they had suffered similar bullying.

In Taixue, Zhao Mo'er's household registration information revealed the identities of him and Zhao Pan'er, a branch of the clan, and Zhao Buyu was the only one on the Zhao family tree.Zhao Mo'er was full of doubts about this, but Zhao Buyu and Zhao Li were not at home, so Zhao Pean'er advised him not to get too entangled.However, Zhao Mo'er was determined to find out the truth.

At night, Zhao Buyu was immersed in memories. He recalled the scene of adopting Dong Qian's children.Zhao Paner came to have a heart-to-heart talk and had doubts about his life experience.Although Zhao Buyu denied it, the doubts in Zhao Paner's heart could not be dissipated.She was grateful to Zhao Buyu for his upbringing, and at the same time she was full of curiosity about her own life experience.

The next day, Zhao Moer was admitted to Dali Temple as he wished, while Zhao Li planned to take his whole family to Fan Lou's spring banquet.Zhao Buyu and Zhao Paner were not interested in this, but Zhao Li was very enthusiastic.At the banquet, a sudden change plunged the scene into chaos. Several red ribbons with names written on them fell from the sky, and several corpses rolled down with them.Zhao Li was horrified, while Zhao Paner calmly checked the situation.

While helping the injured Oiran Chi to bandage, Zhao Petal noticed something special about her hair tie, which was similar to the knot Wen Yue had tied.Subsequently, officers and soldiers from Kaifeng Mansion rushed to the scene. Zhao Pan'er volunteered to conduct an autopsy, and together with Yao He, they found Yayuan's token on the deceased.

Episode 18

The owner of Yayuan has a prominent status. Wan Fu originally planned to lead his men to break in, but unexpectedly the opponent was waiting with sticks in hand.Just as the two sides were at war with each other, the owner of Graceland appeared and hurriedly invited them in.Gu Zhen went straight to Luan Hui, but found that the other party's attitude was extremely arrogant. After sneering twice, he revealed to his subordinates that they were investigators from Kaifeng Mansion.The governor showed up, and Gu Zhen quickly knelt down and reported that he had found several dead bodies, and all the dead had the Flying Fish Order hidden in their mouths, so he followed the lead here.Wanfu added that there was poison in the mouths of the deceased, which was suspicious.

However, Luan Hui laughed arrogantly before Fu Yin could speak, thinking that their statement was nonsense, and even threatened Fu Yin and others to leave.Gu was shocked and shocked by his boss's behavior.At this time, Wang Yunshang happened to meet Gu Zhen and others who were turned away, and witnessed those domestic servants who were bullying others.Wanfu realized that these people were deliberately concealing the person that Mrs. Wang was looking for, so he bluntly said that Fu Yin was among them, and Mrs. Wang immediately rushed in on her horse.Gu Zhen greatly appreciated Wanfu's move.The servants were horrified when they saw this and hurriedly went inside to report.Zhao Paner revealed to her brother that she wanted to stay here for a few more days, and said that her father brought her here.Zhao Buyu couldn't find his father, and finally found him under the bed.Zhao Paner told her sister-in-law that the case may be complicated and involved.Wen Yue was dubious about what her father-in-law said, and was surprised that he could glean the truth from the play.Zhao Buyu was suspicious of the handyman tied with red silk, while Wen Yue noticed that the handyman's hand was injured and was suspicious, but after asking, there was nothing unusual.When Zhao Pan'er heard that her father was about to leave, she felt reluctant to leave and was eager to participate in solving the case.She was waiting for Zhao Moer at Dali Temple, but Zhao Moer expressed his unwillingness to go home.Zhao Pan'er knew that her second brother was deeply resentful about his life experience, but she had already hinted that some realities were difficult for him to accept and she did not want him to expose the matter. She cherished this family relationship even more.

Susu discovered that Song Aniang and others were missing, panicked, and wanted to report the case.Zhao Pan'er comforted her to go home, maybe her mother-in-law had returned.He Huan left after seeing Su Su off. Su Su took Zhao Petan'er for a walk around the house, but was kicked out by Aunt Lu.Zhao Pan'er felt that the people in this family were quite strange, so she followed them quietly after leaving.After being arrested, Afeng from Fanlou finally confessed, saying that he was found in a dark area. It was pitch dark and his hands were stepped on, so he could not see the other person clearly.Zhao Buyu learned that the deceased was actually a high official, and felt deeply that the power behind it was huge.Wen Yue took the initiative to take on the task of finding the route of the culvert.Zhao Buyu was worried about his wife's safety. Seeing that she went resolutely, he felt deeply guilty and felt that he always let his wife step forward in the face of danger.During the meal, Zhao Buyu heard a knock on the door and thought it was his second brother returning, but when he opened the door, he saw Su Su.Wang Yunshang came to see Gu Zhen, and Gu Zhen was afraid of her.Unexpectedly, during the dispute, Wang Yunshang accidentally touched a sensitive part and threatened Gu Zhen to inform his father if he did not help.

Episode 19

Zhao Buyu heard his wife's analysis and learned that the three deceased were actually the presiding judge of the unjust case a few years ago. He speculated that they were probably the survivors of the case back then and had come back for revenge.Wen Yue believes that now is the time to reveal her life experience to her younger siblings.Zhao Buyu felt deeply that what his wife said was true.Wen Yue immediately decided to ask Zhao Buyu to go to Dali Temple immediately to explain everything to his younger brother Zhao Moer.Although there was fear in her heart, she still mustered up the courage and decided to go deep into the dark place. This was the place where she least wanted to look back when she was a child.She recalled her master's past teachings and the various rules in the secret passage.Unexpectedly, Zhao Buyu would be so unreliable. He delayed the firecrackers and sent out wrong signals, leading the enemy to mistakenly think that a foreign enemy was invading. Fortunately, Wen Yue's martial arts was so strong that the enemy was vulnerable to a single blow.She angrily stuffed the third firecracker into her mouth and scolded Zhao Buyu for being unreliable.

Zhao Buyu went to Zhao Mo'er and wanted to teach him his lifelong knowledge. At the same time, he was worried and didn't know how to tell the mystery of his life experience.Zhao Moer was filled with joy when she saw that her elder brother was finally willing to reveal the truth.When Zhao Buyou saw his younger brother mentioning the old case, he couldn't control his emotions. He hurriedly said goodbye and promised to talk again at night.

Wen Yue went deep underground, and General Wuyou appeared, recognizing her identity at a glance.She asked directly about the route for transporting the corpse, but was told that there were rules here.General Wuyou finally gave her a pill to help her face her inner fears.Although Wen Yue was afraid, she finally came to terms with her inner fear.General Wuyou generously informed her of the transportation route and warned her not to fall into the hands of the government.

When Gu Zhen saw Wang Yunshang analyzing the case close at hand, he felt afraid and backed away repeatedly.Wang Yunshang's unique personality actually won Gu Zhen's heart.Zhao Buyu eagerly asked Wanfu about the whereabouts of the woman in black, but learned that there were few clues.Zhao Pan'er and Yao He secretly dug the grave to explore the secret. She firmly believed that Mrs. Lu would not kill Su Su's mother-in-law, while Yao He lamented that people's hearts are unpredictable.

Wen Yue accidentally discovered the transportation channel, and Zhao Pan'er persuaded Wan Fu to open the grave and conduct an autopsy, but found that the deceased was not Su Su's mother-in-law, but Song Yingying.Wen Yue climbed out of the secret passage, just as Zhao Pan'er and others entered.Knowing that she had been discovered, she simply took off her night robe and met him openly.Zhao Pean'er believes that the relationship between the three embroiderers is complicated and cannot be simply regarded as three sisters.Wanfu looks through the evidence and speculates that they may have overlooked other key clues.

Zhao Buyu came to the tavern where he and Brother Dong had often gathered before his death, and burst into tears. He recalled every moment with Brother Dong and lamented that things have changed.Wen Yue took Gu Zhenzhong on the corpse transportation route to familiarize them with the environment so that they could analyze the case.The two climbed up to the mouth of the well. Gu Zhen was about to analyze the case when Mrs. Wang also climbed up.She wanted to use Gu Zhen's strength to get up, but Gu Zhen let go and she fell into the well again. Gu was so shocked that he couldn't catch her.

Episode 21

Zhang Zeduan traveled around Tokyo and faithfully painted what he saw and heard on canvas.Hearing that Zhao Buyu was investigating the Ciro Women's Mutual Aid Club, he hurriedly showed Zhao Buyu the painting about the mutual aid club he had just completed this morning.In the picture, a carriage is driving towards the mutual aid club. The fish charm hanging on the horse is exactly the same as the one in He Yayuan.

In order to please the officials who came to He Yayuan to have fun, Luan Hui used any means and came up with many vicious ideas.He selected Xie Ba Sao as today's Zhongshu Jun. Zhongshu Jun was originally an elegant name for the writing brush, but Luan Hui had Xie Ba Sao tied up and hung up, and she dipped her hair in ink to write.Xie Ba's sister-in-law was tortured to such an extent that she was in so much pain that her cries for help were ignored.The foreign envoys Cui Hong and Ma Shaoqing were laughing on the sidelines. Zhao Pan'er was angry and anxious, and wanted to rush forward to save Xie Ba's sister-in-law, but was firmly held down by two sturdy men.

Luan Hui used Sister Xie's hair to write the word "Fengya%" and proudly called Cui Hong and Ma Shaoqing to admire it.However, Sister-in-law Xie vomited blood because she was hung for a long time, and the blood stained the words.Luan Hui was furious when he saw this. He picked up a stick and beat Sister Xie severely until she was dying.Zhao Pean'er shouted to stop her, but Luan Hui sent someone to bury Xie Ba'er and threatened to let Zhao Pean'er try new tricks.

Ah Ci suddenly knocked down Ma Shaoqing's wine bottle, causing Luan Hui to scold him.She was so frightened that she knelt down and begged for mercy. At this time, the housekeeper reminded Luan Hui in a low voice that his wife Zou Ziyin had returned home.Zou Ziyin is a well-known shrew in Tokyo. Luan Hui left in a hurry after hearing this, leaving Cui Hong and Ma Shaoqing to disperse.Zhao Pan'er luckily escaped.

Late at night, Zhao Pan'er wanted to escape from here, but Wu Mei'er, who lived in the same room, persuaded her not to waste her efforts.Zhao Pan'er witnessed the tragic situation of Sister Xie with her own eyes and did not want to sit still and wait for death, let alone worry her family.She promised to inform Fei Xiang'e's family when she got out, and Wu Mei'er was willing to point out a way to escape for her, although this road was full of dangers.

Zhao Buyu concluded that Zhao Pan'er was imprisoned in Yayuan, so he asked Gu Zhen and Wan Fu to rescue him.On the other side, Luan Hui washed Zou Ziyin's feet with a smile on his face, and couldn't wait to present a box of gold to her.However, Zou Ziyin didn't appreciate it and spoke harshly to him.Luan Hui did not dare to refute, so he could only obey his words.Zou Ziyin took out the portraits of the two suspects in the Fan Lou murder case and asked Luan Hui to kill them as soon as possible.

Zhao Pan'er followed Wu Mei'er's instructions to escape, and met Ah Ci on the way, who took the initiative to lead her the way.The housekeeper waited for them halfway and handed them the account books used by the Zou family to bribe officials, an escape route map, and a knife for self-defense.Ah Ci killed the housekeeper with a knife and fled with Zhao Pan'er.It turns out that Ah Ci threatened the housekeeper's family, so the housekeeper was willing to obey.

At the same time, Gu Zhen, Zhao Buyu and others broke into the back hill of Yayuan and found two men burying the body of Sister Xie.Zhao Pan'er and A Ci finally arrived at the exit of the underground maze after all the hardships, but they happened to encounter Luan Hui and his men breaking in.They were so frightened that they quickly hid, when Wu Mei'er suddenly appeared. She lured Luan Hui and the servants away, and covered Zhao Pan'er and A Ci's escape from the secret room.

Just as Zhao Pan'er and A Ci wanted to escape on horseback, the killers from the Stick Club came after hearing the news.Ah Ci pushed Zhao Pean'er onto the horse and asked her to take the account books to Lu Sanzhen, and asked her to take good care of Su Su.The Stick Club was entrusted by Zou Ziyin to arrest Ah Ci. They recognized Ah Ci as the suspect in the portrait and beat her to death on the spot and carried her back to Zou Ziyin.

Gu Zhen and others came to Yayuan to search for Zhao Pan'er to no avail. Kaifeng Mansion officers and soldiers found the scarred Wu Mei'er in the underground maze.Knowing from her mouth that Zhao Paner and A Ci had fled to Anjiyuan, Zhao Buyu and Wen Yue immediately went to Anjiyuan to look for them.

Gu Zhen and Wan Fu successfully rescued all the girls trapped in the underground maze of Yayuan, but Zhao Pan'er and Luan Hui were the only ones missing.At this time, Wang Yunshang came to Yayuan to assist in the search. Gu Zhen learned that Zhao Buyu and Wen Yue had gone to Anjiyuan, so he immediately set off there, followed closely by Wang Yunshang, and Wan Fu also led the crowd.

On the other side, Luan Hui discovered that Yayuan's account books were missing and hurriedly reported it to his wife.At this time, people from the Stick Club had brought Ah Ci's body. Luan Hui did not find the account book on Ah Ci, so he was severely reprimanded by his wife and ordered to take refuge in Jiangnan.Zhao Pan'er was grateful for He Huan's protection, and learned from He Huan that Chi Liao was a righteous person but had a bad temper.In addition, Zhao Pan'er also learned that He Huan's father was a big worker on a boat in Taihu Lake and witnessed the tragic death of his family with his own eyes. This made Zhao Pan'er feel that He Huan's and Wen Yue's experiences were quite similar.

At the same time, Zhao Buyu, Yao He and Wen Yue arrived at Anjiyuan to look for Zhao Paner, only to find that Chi Liao had been waiting here for a long time.Chi Liaoyu competed with Wen Yue, but Wen Yue had no choice but to accept the challenge.Zhao Buyu and Yao He took the opportunity to look for Zhao Pan'er.Wen Yue defeated Chi Liao easily, and Chi Liao confessed that he was also a water bandit and had been living in Wen Yue's shadow.

However, Zou Ziyin suddenly led the killers from the Stick Club into Anjiyuan and forced Chi Liao to hand over the account books, otherwise he would face the same fate as Ah Ci.Chi Liao admitted that he was the issuer and asked Wen Yue to join forces against Zou Ziyin.However, Wen Yue and Chi Liao were surrounded by killers. Although they fought hard, they were injured because they were outnumbered.Chi Liao unfortunately died due to exhaustion of physical strength.Zhao Buyu was trapped in the room by the killer. He tried his best to break free and rushed out to protect Wen Yue.

Fortunately, Gu Zhen, Wang Yunshang and Wanfu arrived in time. Wang Yunshang relied on the reputation of his father Wang Fuyin to put pressure on Zou Ziyin, while Gu Zhen ordered Zou Ziyin to be arrested.Yao He finally found Zhao Pan'er after all the hardships, and Zhao Pan'er quickly handed over the account books to Gu Zhen.At the same time, Zhao Mo'er hurried home after learning about the Yayuan incident from her colleagues at Dali Temple. After seeing Zhao Pean'er safe and sound, she felt mixed emotions and couldn't help but reprimand her loudly.

Zhao Pan'er and Wen Yue knew nothing about Luan Hui's hiding place, but Zhao Pan'er remembered that foreign envoys had appeared in the underground labyrinth.Zhao Li grew up in the palace with his father since childhood and was proficient in foreign languages.He revealed that foreign envoys would go to Tongwen Hall.

Episode 22

After Sister-in-law Xie passed away, Brother Xie was immersed in endless grief. He didn't think about food and drinks, and burst into tears all day long.Zhao Pean'er felt very sad when she saw Brother Xie was so sad. She couldn't bear to tell Brother Xie the truth, so she lied and said that Brother Xie died peacefully.

Susu saw her mother Ah Ci in her dream, but when she woke up she could not find her and wondered whether her mother had left.In order to comfort Susu, Zhao Petal had to make up lies.After hearing this, Su Su burst into tears, and Zhao Pan'er entrusted Su Su to Aunt Lan who lived alone.On the other side, Zhao Buyu wanted to find Luan Hui through the hands of the foreign envoy Cui Hong. He learned that his father Zhao Li could understand foreign languages, so he took him to Tongwen Hall early in the morning to look for Cui Hong.

At the same time, Wen Yue successfully rescued Wu Meier and let her recuperate at Xiaoxiao's house.Wu Mei'er has been trapped in an underground maze for many years, feeling strange and afraid of the outside world.With Wen Yue's encouragement, she gradually cheered up and began to adapt to her new life.After Xiaoxiao took Wumei'er home, Wen Yue left with peace of mind.

After Zhao Buyu saw Cui Hong, he eagerly asked about Luan Hui's whereabouts.But Cui Hong was arrogant and unwilling to disclose it.Zhao Li stood up when he saw this, and Cui Hong recognized this old acquaintance at a glance.Zhao Buyu took the opportunity to threaten Cui Hong, and Cui Hong confessed that Luan Hui was hiding in the wine barrel and claimed that he had deceived him out of his destination.However, Wan Fu and Gu Zhen had been waiting for a long time, and they captured Luan Hui on the spot and brought him back to Kaifeng Mansion.

Zhao Pean'er recalled the similarities between He Huan and Wen Yue, and suspected that He Huan was Wen Yue's long-lost brother.After Wen Yue learned about it, she immediately went to Anjiyuan to look for He Huan.As soon as she entered the door, she saw the wooden carving Mohele placed on the table. It was a gift from her to her brother, but it had not been painted yet.After He Huan came back, he described his experience in detail.Wen Yue confirmed that He Huan in front of him was his biological brother Su Zheng, and the two embraced excitedly.He Huan told Wen Yue about his experiences over the years, and Wen Yue felt distressed and emotional.He Huan expressed that he wanted to raise the orphans in Anjiyuan, and Wen Yue fully supported and agreed to help.

In order to make up for the regret of not holding a wedding for Wen Yue, Zhao Buyu hired a carriage dressed in red and green to take her home.This move attracted many people's onlookers and blessings.Wen Yue happily followed Zhao Buyu home, and the whole family gathered together for a reunion dinner.

However, the good times did not last long.He Huan hurriedly came to Wen Yue and told her that the government had taken away Anjiyuan and placed the children in Yangjifang.He Huan had nowhere to go and had to seek refuge with Wen Yue.After the Zhao family learned that He Huan was Wen Yue's biological brother, they warmly welcomed his arrival.Zhao Moer also took the initiative to give his room to He Huan.But Zhao Buyu found that Wen Yue was worried and not happy because he found his younger brother.Wen Yue felt that recent events were too smooth and unreal, while Zhao Buyou advised her not to think wildly.

The next day, Zhao Buyu put on new clothes and went to the street to set up a stall early, and He Huan also came to help.He took the opportunity to ask Zhao Buyu about Dong Qian.But Dong Qian randomly made excuses to cover up his crime of killing He Huan's family.On the other side, when Wen Yue came to Anjiyuan to help the children move, she accidentally discovered that Chi Liao had the same long skirt and hairpin in her room.Wen Yue immediately understood the meaning of what Chi Liao said before - He Huan had always wanted to make Chi Liao look like her.This made Wen Yue feel uneasy.Although He Huan bought gifts for the Zhao family and won their praise, Wen Yue's doubts became more and more serious.

At the same time, Zou Mian of the Jiangnan Yingfeng Bureau took a boat to the outskirts of Tokyo and called the chief official on board the boat overnight, asking him to rescue Zou Ziyin and promising to give him a box of gold as reward after the incident was completed.But the chief official expressed his inability to do anything, because what Zou Ziyin and Luan Hui committed was Tian Tiao and the emperor would not forgive them lightly.Wen Yue stayed up late to carve a new Mohe music for He Huan and took the opportunity to persuade him to put down his hatred and start a new life.

Episode 23

He Huan had nowhere to go, so he came to seek refuge with Wen Yue.After Zhao Moer learned about it, he gave his room to He Huan without saying a word, and moved to Dali Temple to live.He Huan felt sorry and repeatedly advised Zhao Mo'er to go home, but Zhao Mo'er regarded him as a relative and insisted that he stay in peace.In order to express his gratitude, He Huan gave Zhao Moer the shipbuilding drawings left by his father during his lifetime. Zhao Moer was reluctant to accept it at first, but he was so kind that he finally accepted it.However, He Huan specifically reminded Zhao Moer not to tell Wen Yue about this.Zhao Moer agreed without thinking too much.At dinner, He Huan invited Zhao Moer home for dinner, saying that he would treat him well.

Zhao Mo'er went home happily as soon as he got off work. Wen Yue, Zhao Pan'er and Zhao Buyu were all very surprised to see him coming back. It turned out that they didn't know that He Huan called Zhao Mo'er back.He Huan silently helped cook in the kitchen, while Zhao Moer went to the room to pack a change of clothes.Zhao Buyu followed curiously and accidentally saw the shipbuilding drawings in Zhao Moer's hand.It was a blueprint of a warship. Zhao Buyu was puzzled because Wen Yue and He Huan's father was a big worker in a civilian shipyard during his lifetime. How could he leave behind a blueprint of a warship?Moreover, He Huan specifically told Zhao Moer to keep it a secret.Zhao Buyu felt that there must be something fishy about this matter, so he told Zhao Mo'er to keep it secret.

On the other side, Gu Zhen hurriedly came to Zhao Buyu and told him that Zou Mian secretly came to Tokyo.He Huan heard clearly from the side, but Zhao Buyu seemed a little absent-minded.Gu Zhen saw that he had something on his mind, but Zhao Buyu just made random excuses to cover it up.At dinner, He Huan prepared good wine and food and toasted Zhao Buyu to express his gratitude.Zhao Buyu was so drunk that he soon became unconscious.He Huan drank a lot of wine in one go and pretended to be drunk.After Wen Yue asked him to go inside and rest, he took the opportunity to sneak out of the house and arrived at the pier in the suburbs of Beijing.

Wen Yue followed and exposed He Huan's disguise in person.He Huan knew that he couldn't hide it from Wen Yue, so he told everything about his plan.He admitted that he planned the Plum Boat Case, the Scientific Expedition Case, the Hat Monster Case and the Fan Lou Murder Case, in order to completely get rid of Zou Mian and his gang members.Wen Yue finally understood everything after hearing this. It turned out that the person who issued the order was his own brother He Huan, and Chi Liao was just his substitute.He Huan had already found out that Zou Mian sent people to kill his whole family, so he hated him so much.

At the same time, Zhao Buyu slept until the afternoon before waking up in a daze.He received an order for Wen Yue to meet at Wazi.Zhao Buyu came directly to Wazi to see the single person, only to find that it was a woman in black.She just wanted to see Wen Yue and told Wen Yue that Zou Mian sent Dong Qian to kill her whole family.Zhao Buyu admitted that he had received Dong Qian's notes and knew that Dong Qian was the murderer of Wen Yue's family.But he couldn't bear to let his family turn against each other, so he kept the matter concealed.

However, Wen Yue had already expected everything.She asked Wu Meier to pretend to be the sender to attract Zhao Buyu, just because she wanted to hear the truth from Zhao Buyu himself.Zhao Mo'er and Zhao Pan'er were worried and quietly followed Zhao Buyu.After they heard Zhao Buyu's story, Zhao Mo'er couldn't accept the fact and ran away in the heavy rain.After Zhao Pean'er caught up with Zhao Mo'er, she persuaded him to go back together to apologize to Wen Yue.But Zhao Moer felt shameless to face Wen Yue and left alone.Zhao Pan'er had nowhere to go, so he had to find Yao He.She thought of Wen Yue's care and love over the years, and her heart was filled with guilt and helplessness.

Wen Yue and Zhao Buyu searched for Zhao Moer everywhere, but found nothing.Wen Yue met He Huan on the way and guessed that all this was carefully arranged by him.He Huan brought Wen Yue to the big house he bought.On the other side, Zhao Buyu returned home in despair.Zhao Li clamored for food, but Zhao Buyu was not in the mood to cook.Zhao Li had no choice but to cook the soup cakes himself.He had long expected the outcome today.When Zhao Buyu took in Zhao Pan'er and Zhao Mo'er, he specially put on a play to prove that they were his illegitimate children born out of wedlock.

Zhao Buyu was filled with self-blame and guilt.Zhao Li was on the side giving him good advice.Zhao Buyu found that the Mohele made by Wen Yue fell into two halves on the ground. He asked Zhao Li when Zhao Mo'er and Zhao Pan'er went out.Zhao Li clearly remembered that after He Huan and Zhao Moer whispered a few words, Zhao Paner and Zhao Moer went out together.Zhao Buyu immediately understood that everything was arranged by He Huan.He Huan purchased a spacious mansion in Tokyo and carefully built a pavilion in the house that was exactly the same as his home.

However, Wen Yue couldn't be happy no matter what. She always cared about Zhao Pan'er and Zhao Mo'er in her heart.When He Huan saw this, he was filled with resentment. He accused Wen Yue of treating the enemy's child as a close relative but ignoring the existence of his biological brother.After hearing this, Wen Yue sadly accused He Huan of being too ruthless.He Huan was so emotional that he even threatened his life in an attempt to force Wen Yue to change his mind.

Episode 24

Su Zheng once witnessed his parents being brutally murdered, and his sister Su Yue also disappeared mysteriously.From then on, he made an oath to kill his enemies with his own hands.For this reason, he kept his name anonymous and worked hard for many years, and finally reunited with his sister Wen Yue.However, when the children of his enemy Dong Qian were approaching, Wen Yue persuaded him to put down the butcher knife.He Huan was extremely dissatisfied with this and even threatened to die, but Wen Yue remained unmoved and left alone.

One morning, two customers came to the umbrella shop early to place orders, but Wen Yue never showed up.Shopkeeper Liu from the umbrella shop next door saw this and wanted to take the opportunity to grab business.Fortunately, Wen Yue arrived in time to welcome the customer into the shop, and shopkeeper Liu left in frustration.Fei Xiang'e, the shop owner of the umbrella shop, reminded Wen Yue to be careful about Zhao Buyu to avoid being snatched away.

On the other side, Zou Mian used all his connections to rescue Zou Ziyin and Luan Hui from prison.Zou Ziyin has a domineering personality and will punch and kick her subordinates if they have any slight inconvenience, but Luan Hui is kind to persuade them.Zou Mian saw this and felt deeply that he owed Zou Ziyin too much because he had been traveling south of the Yangtze River for many years in pursuit of fame and neglected her in Tokyo.

Su Zheng took the initiative to find Wen Yue to admit her mistake, hoping that she could put down her hatred and start a new life.Zou Mian chose Luan Hui as Zou Ziyin's son-in-law. However, Luan Hui had many evil deeds, so Zou Mian finally decided to abandon him and put all the blame on him.However, what is unexpected is that Zou Mian poisoned Zou Ziyin and Luan Hui at the same time, causing them both to die.

As night fell, Fei Xiang'e came to the umbrella shop to chat with Wen Yue. She saw that Wen Yue had something on his mind.Fei Xiang'e and Wen Yue have been selling umbrellas on the same street for many years. They have been competing with her, but they have never been able to surpass her.When Wen Yue revealed that someone wanted to take away her happy life, Fei Xiang'e encouraged her to protect her bravely.

Zou Mian learned that the account books were lost and worried that he would not be able to protect himself, so he decided to use Zou Ziyin and Luan Hui as scapegoats.He planned to transport the bodies of the two men back to the prison of the Ministry of Punishment, claiming that they died suddenly of illness.At the same time, he spread the word that he would entertain guests on a large boat in the suburbs of Beijing, intending to attract revenge seekers and then take the opportunity to escape.

The storyteller publicized Zou Mian's evil deeds in the street, attracting many people to watch.Zhao Buyu and Gu Zhen went to Zhang Zeduan to look for clues, but found nothing.At this time, Wang Yunshang came to report that her father Wang Fuyin was going to meet distinguished guests on a large ship in the wild forest on the outskirts of the city at night.Zhao Buyu and others realized that this might be a trap set by Zou Mian.

Wen Yue disguised herself and sneaked into the ship to assassinate Zou Mian.However, she discovered that there were only two ventriloquist girls on board.When she realized she had been deceived, officers and soldiers had already broken in, and she had no choice but to jump into the river to escape.

Wen Yue came to the clothing store and learned that shopkeeper Yu wanted to sell the store to support his retirement.Shopkeeper Yu was entrusted by Zhao Buyu to arrange for him to meet Wen Yue.Zhao Buyu apologized to Wen Yue, and the two decided to go to Yao He's house to visit Zhao Pan'er.Yao He suspected that Zou Mian was the murderer of Luan Hui and Zou Ziyin.Zhao Buyu and Wen Yue persuaded Zhao Pean'er to move back home, and Wen Yue said that he would never vent his anger on her and Zhao Mo'er.

At the same time, Zhao Moer came to the umbrella shop and wanted to apologize to Wen Yue and send him the umbrella-making drawings, but in the end he lacked the courage.He went to a pub to get drunk alone, and met Su Zheng who was also drinking there.Zhao Moer asked Su Zheng to hand the book to Wen Yue, saying that he could not atone for his father's sins and could only plead with Su Zheng.Su Zheng hinted that he killed Zou Mian to atone for his sins.

Episode 25

Su Zheng cleverly used Zhao Moer's guilt towards his father, and through psychological suggestions, reminded him of the deeds of Song Qiyu, Sun Bo, A Ci and others who sacrificed their lives for righteousness.Zhao Mo'er was deeply touched and vowed to atone for the sins of his father Dong Qian and kill Zou Mian.Therefore, Su Zheng revealed to Zhao Mo'er Zou Mian's route to Beijing to face the saint tomorrow, and Zhao Mo'er vowed to make it impossible for Zou Mian's ship to pass Hongqiao.

After learning that Wen Yue failed to assassinate Zou Mian, Su Zheng quickly dissuaded her from taking any more risks.At the same time, he asked Wen Yue to prepare a meal for him, and Wen Yue readily agreed.On the other side, Zhao Paner prepared dishes for Zhao Buyu and Zhao Li and delivered them overnight.Zhao Buyou was troubled by the fact that he could not find any evidence of Zou Mian's crime. The deaths of Zou Ziyin and Luan Hui made it even harder for him to investigate.Zhao Pan'er advised him not to be anxious and wait patiently for the opportunity.

However, Zhao Li chose a completely different path.He left a farewell letter and decided to spend all his wealth and travel to brothels in Tokyo, where he lived in intoxication for the rest of his life.After Zhao Buyu and Zhao Moer learned about it, they immediately went to the brothel to look for him.In the brothel, Zhao Li was surrounded by a group of girls and enjoyed a life of fun.Zhao Buyu dealt with the brothel owner and finally left with Zhao Li.But what's puzzling is that the brothel owner and the girls are extremely respectful to Zhao Li and don't even accept his money.Zhao Buyu suspected that they had mistaken Zhao Li for the emperor.

At the same time, Wen Yue prepared meals for Su Zheng, but Su Zheng tried to persuade Wen Yue to let Zhao Moer kill Zou Mian in exchange for her and Zhao Buyu's happiness.Wen Yue firmly objected, and the two had a dispute.Wen Yue was worried about Zhao Moer's safety and left in a hurry to stop him.Su Zheng felt sad, looking at Wen Yue's back, his heart full of pain.

Wen Yue and Zhao Pan'er rushed to Hongqiao and found that Zhao Mo'er had purchased explosives and prepared to blow up Zou Mian.They immediately told Gu Zhen and Wan Fu the news, and the two quickly evacuated the people on the bridge.Before Zhao Moer lit the explosive, Wen Yue knelt down and begged him to give up revenge and cherish life.Zhao Mo'er was moved by Wen Yue's sincerity and gave up the idea of ​​revenge.However, Su Zheng suddenly appeared, disappointed with Zhao Moer's retreat, and decided to take action himself.But Zou Mian's ship has gone far away, and his revenge plan failed.In grief and anger, Su Zheng exposed Zou Mian's crime in public, returned Mohele to Wen Yue, and jumped into the river.

On the other side, Wang Yunshang invited his father Wang Fuyin to come to Wazi to watch a play. The people gathered together, waiting for the shocking inside story to be revealed.The storyteller Mr. Li took the stage with Zhao Buyu and told about the evil deeds of the corrupt official Zou Mian.They revealed Zou Mian's crimes of levying excessive taxes and disregarding human lives in order to collect rare stones, and the cruel facts of how he forced Dong Qian to kill Su Zhi's family.After hearing this, the people were filled with indignation and criticized Zou Mian verbally and writtenly.In the end, Zhao Buyu escorted Zou Mian to the stage, and Wang Fuyin was shocked.

Episode 26

Zhao Buyu came up with a plan and asked Zhao Li to pretend to be the emperor in order to trap the cunning and suspicious Zou Mian.They rowed the boat and waited for Zou Mian to take the bait.However, Zou Mian refused to submit.Just when Zhao Buyu was about to give up, Zhao Li made an unintentional move - scratching his back with a flute, which made Zou Mian mistakenly think that he was the real dragon emperor. He was so frightened that he knelt down to beg for mercy and got on their boat obediently.Zhao Buyu caught Zou Mian easily.

On the other side, Gu Zhen, Wan Fu and others hurried to Wazi and saw Zou Mian tied to the stage.Wang Fuyin recognized Zou Mian at a glance and hurriedly stepped forward to untie him.Zou Mian shouted that he was wronged and claimed that he was loyal, but he was framed.Wang Fuyin asked Zhao Buyu to present evidence and go to Kaifeng Mansion for interrogation.

The people were agitated and insisted on a public trial of Zou Mian in Wazi.Zhao Buyu invited witness Zheng Dun, but Zheng Dun betrayed him.Zheng Dun first admitted to recruiting substitute scholars for the Zou family, but then suddenly reversed his confession and accused Zhao Buyu of framing Zou Mian.The audience was in an uproar.

At this time, the officers and soldiers of the Imperial City Division came to force their way into Wazi. Gu Zhen and Wanfu stepped forward and started a fierce battle with the officers and soldiers.Wangfu Yin saw the inconsistencies in Zheng Dun's testimony and wanted to take Zou Mian back to Kaifeng Mansion.Zhao Buyu took out Zou Ziyin's bloody clothes and jade pendant to expose Zou Mian's crimes.However, Zou Mian quibbled that Zou Ziyin died suddenly due to illness and that he had killed his relatives out of righteousness.

Wan Fu was surrounded by officers and soldiers and fell to the ground due to exhaustion. Gu Zhen arrived in time to rescue him.They resisted desperately and bought time for Zhao Buyu.Wen Yue, Zhao Pan'er and Zhao Mo'er rushed to Wazi and saw that Zhao Buyu, as a litigator, listed Zou Mian's seven major crimes, which attracted an outpouring of anger from the people.

Zou Mian refused to plead guilty and insulted Zhao Buyou and others as ants.He took out the yellow silk gift given by the emperor and tried to force the people to kneel down.But Zhao Li stepped forward and joined the people in criticizing Zou Mian verbally and writtenly.Zhao Buyu implored the people to testify and bring Zou Mian to justice.Wang Fuyin had no choice but to accept the case in public.

Under Wang Fuyin's warning, Zhao Buyu was willing to bear the death penalty for falsely accusing the imperial official, and also wanted to bring Zou Mian to justice.The people cheered and cheered, but Zou Mian was scared to death.Wen Yue felt gratified when she witnessed Zhao Buyu's heroic performance.The family happily returned home surrounded by their neighbors.

Soon after, the news came that Wen Yue was pregnant, and the whole family was immersed in joy.The emperor gave Zhao Buyu the title of "Litigation Jue". He still set up a stall on the street every day and told his heroic deeds.Zhao Li, on the other hand, took the emperor incognito for a private visit and told interesting folk stories.Yao He proposed to Zhao Pan'er, and Wen Yue tried her best to match him up. Their life was peaceful and happy.

Zhang Zeduan painted the life of the Zhao family realistically, and Zhao Buyu hoped that these paintings could be passed down for generations.In the end, the best works selected from hundreds of paintings were combined into the "Along the River During Qingming Festival" that has been passed down to this day.
