Episode 16

Ji Yingying learned that Yu Shu wanted to fulfill his son's last wish and complete the ancient patterns.She planned to set off to Gubei Village with Zhu Xiaoniang and Yu Linglong to look for ancient patterns and convince Yu Shu.It was the first time that Zhu Xiaoniang was so far away from home, and she felt very excited.When the three of them arrived at Gubei Village, Zhu Xiaoniang was attracted by the patterns.Ji Yingying heard that there were sacrifices and couldn't wait to follow them to have a look.

Sheng Fengze suddenly appeared and deliberately wandered in front of Ji Yingying.Yu Shu asked the clan elders to give him face. He was very concerned about the ancient patterns left by his son, but the clan elder said that outsiders were not allowed to enter the village.Sheng Fengze thought Yu Shu was too obsessed. Ji Yingying bluntly said that he also had obsessions. Sheng Fengze said that his only obsession was Shu Brocade.

Ji Yingying asked Yu Linglong to help hold Sheng Fengze away, and she went to Yu Shu to discuss it. She understood Yu Shu's obsession.Yu Shu admires Ji Yingying and praises her for not fearing dangers and trying to regain Shuhong, but he regrets that the Yu family no longer has such an heir.Sheng Fengze and Yu Linglong left with a few polite words. Yu Linglong noticed that his limbs were weak and thought he was a martial arts practitioner.

Sheng Fengze broke into the ancestral hall without authorization and found that the ancient brocade box was unlocked. When he opened it, he found nothing.The villagers broke in and insisted that Sheng Fengze had stolen the ancient brocade.The clan leader accused Yu Shu, believing that he cooperated with outsiders and stole the ancient brocade.Ji Yingying heard that the ancient brocade was stolen and Sheng Fengze was arrested, so he deliberately involved Ji Yingying.Yu Shu promised that as long as he found the ancient brocade, he would give up the brocade room.Ji Yingying tried to find the ancient pattern brocade. She used psychological tactics to get the clan leader to cooperate, and found that Liu Er's whereabouts were strange.

Liu Er was forced to have no choice but to admit that he was in urgent need of money, and he asked the gods and people for forgiveness.The clan leader thought he had sold the brocade, but Liu Er said that he had damaged the brocade and thought that the villagers were too poor and should sell the brocade to pay back the money.Seeing this situation, Ji Yingying came up with a way to help the villagers. She thought that Yu Shu could repair the brocade and sell the restored brocade to subsidize the villagers with the proceeds.Yu Shu hesitated, but Ji Yingying said that this was the only way the Yu family could be strong and protected.

Yang Jinglan went to the military camp of Jiedushi, who praised him for his bravery and strategy.Yang Jinglan informed General Niu about the incident, and only asked Jiedushi to give him the authority to investigate the case, hoping to avenge his master Shen Jinguan.Jiedushi originally thought that Shen Jinguan was unknown, but he didn't expect that he actually concealed his name and was once a famous Taifu.He reminded Yang Jinglan to pay attention to the propriety in investigating the case. Yang Jinglan met the murderer who killed Ji Guinan in the military camp.

Ji Yingying, Yu Shu and others stayed up all night and finally restored the ancient brocade.Ji Yingying begged Yu Shu to cooperate with her to pass on the Shu Brocade, and Yu Shu finally agreed.The villagers thanked Ji Yingying and others and prepared hot wine to celebrate.Sheng Fengze teased Ji Yingying for the rest of his life. Ji Yingying hoped that Sheng Fengze could be honest with each other, and maybe there would be business relationships in the future.Sheng Fengze looked at the happy Ji Yingying, thinking that he would get a brocade room and patterns in the future, but it was not easy to meet someone as interesting as Ji Yingying.

Yang Jinglan had already been waiting outside the city gate. When she saw Ji Yingying's carriage coming back, she asked Sheng Fengze about the details.Sheng Fengze deliberately exaggerated his description, saying that he and Ji Yingying shared life and death, which made Yang Jinglan unhappy.Ji Yingying returned home and wanted to sneak in quietly without being discovered by Ji Xu, but she didn't expect that Zhu Xiaoniang's mother was here.Zhu Xiaoniang expressed that she did not want to go on a blind date. She wanted to go her own way and prove her ability in front of her parents.Ji Yingying comforted her and said that the path her parents chose was easy, but she supported Zhu Xiaoniang's choice even more.

Zhu Xiaoniang met Sang Shiro on the way back. Sang Shiro said that after he convinced his father, he would go to Zhu Xiaoniang's house to propose marriage.Zhu Xiaoniang said that she did not want to go on a blind date, and that the lover she wanted could walk side by side, and refused Sanjuro's wishes.
