Episode 11

Director Wu was worried that Yan Xing's outspokenness would anger Lai Luo Zhi. Unexpectedly, Princess Yong'an arrived unexpectedly and praised Yan Xing's intelligence, but asked the Ministry of Punishment and Shen Du not to delve further into the Chen Huo Mo case.The princess even suggested that Yan Caiwei and Han Shiyuan marry to calm the turmoil.Yan Xing did not respond on the spot, so the princess left first.Manager Wu was shocked, and Yan Xing felt that something was fishy. Lu Chuichui also persuaded her to get out of the way, but she had doubts.

At this time, Zhang Baohuan also hurriedly visited Yan Xing, and everyone seemed to tacitly hope that she would stay away from this turmoil.Director Wu was even more frightened, thinking that the water depth of the Criminal Department was unfathomable, and urged Yan Xing not to ask for trouble.Yan Xing met with Zhang Baohuan and learned that Zhang Baohuan came to inquire about Han Shiyuan's safety. However, he learned that Han Shiyuan had not returned home. Zhang Baohuan speculated that Han Shiyuan deliberately avoided seeing him.Yan Xing's heart was filled with doubts, and the matter became increasingly confusing, as if there was an invisible net trying to isolate her.

Yan Xing turned to visit Yan Caiwei. In the silent communication between the sisters, Yan Xing wanted to inquire about the subtle relationship between Han Shiyuan and Princess Yong'an, but Han Shiyuan avoided it.After returning home, her mother mentioned Shen Du's generous gift and reminded Yan Xing to pay attention to Shen Du's movements.On the other side, Shen Du asked Ying to take over the Chen Huomo case in front of the Empress Dowager, but he had hidden doubts in his heart, thinking that there might be a hidden secret behind the case.With the help of Xu Wan, Shen Du is determined to uncover the truth.The Empress Dowager agreed and handed over the matter of Hongwen Hall to Prime Minister Zhang.When Princess Yong'an returned, she was displeased when she learned that Prime Minister Zhang had taken over the Hongwen Pavilion, while Xiao Chong secretly rejoiced.Zhang Xiang intended to help Shen Du, but Xiao Zhong pretended to be confused. Seeing this, Zhang Xiang had no choice but to give up, secretly planning the next move.

As night fell, Yan Xing was about to act quietly, but was unexpectedly caught by Shen Du.She was full of curiosity about the Chen Huomo case. When she learned that Shen Du had been ordered to investigate, Yan Xing was overjoyed and quickly worked for Shen Du, hoping to take this opportunity to participate in the investigation.Shen Du felt a little helpless at Yan Xing's clumsiness, but he also enjoyed the warmth in her clumsiness.During dinner, Yan Xing even showed off his cooking skills, trying to get Shen Du's consent with delicious food.However, a metaphor about preserving a corpse made Shen Du lose his appetite.Yan Xing insisted on participating in the case, but Shen Du refused on the grounds of protection, but was finally moved by Yan Xing's determination and handed over the token.Early the next morning, Yan Xing took the token and went straight to Chen's house. The house was deserted. The housekeeper revealed that Chen Shoujie had become insane since his wife was killed, and he often said “fire” and “moth”.Yan Xing found the relics of Jinxiufang high up in the house, and secretly speculated that “Chen Huojie” mentioned by Chen Shoujie may be the key to the case.

Returning to the Criminal Department, Director Wu quietly changed her seat to prevent Yan Xing from being involved in danger.When Lu Chuichui saw this, he was indignant and warned Yan Xing to protect himself.Yan Xing conducted an in-depth investigation and found that the Jinxiufang case in the third year of the Holy Calendar was full of doubts.At that time, due to mistakes in clothing embroidery, Jinxiufang was labeled as a disobedient, and the whole family suffered. The eldest princess Runing also broke with the royal family.The file is vague, and there seems to be a deeper secret behind the case.

On the other side, Pan Chi prepares for the imperial examination and refuses to associate with the candidates who are sponsored by Princess Yong'an, believing that Zhang Xiang intends to win people's hearts.Unexpectedly, Pan Chi was kidnapped, but he still adhered to his principles under duress.At the critical moment, Princess Yongan's men, Shen Du and others arrived one after another and launched a fierce rescue operation.Shen Du relied on his extraordinary martial arts and keen intuition to resolve many crises, but the mastermind behind the scenes didn't seem to give up, and a bigger storm was quietly brewing.
