Me and My Delicate Husband Episode 23 Recap
> Me and My Delicate Husband Recap
The soldiers outside the city received the notification that Mu Zhixi had detained the Prime Minister's disciple and was heading to the palace to kill. The soldiers urgently rushed to the capital for rescue. Seeing that Mu Zhixi had gone mad with rage, Xu Huaiqing encouraged everyone, saying that Mu Zhixi couldn't possibly kill all the scholars in the world. If they die for justice, what is there to fear?
As he said this, he suddenly had a sudden attack of poison and coughed up blood. It was only then that he realized he had been coerced by Li Huai, but it was too late.
Xu Huaiqing's colleagues all fled one after another. Li Huai regretted not killing Mu Zhixi 19 years ago. He had been deceived all these years by Mu Zhixi pretending to be weak and ill. Mu Zhixi thought to himself that Kong Qiqi would leave sooner or later, and then he would have nothing left to worry about. He ordered Chai Hu to kill all of Li Huai's accomplices. First, he wanted to avenge his mother and the soldiers on the border, and then he would seek death to atone for his sins, hoping to meet Kong Qiqi again in the next life.
The sound of horse hooves came from outside the gate. Li Huai thought it was his reinforcements arriving, but to his surprise, it was the Crown Prince's troops. The Crown Prince had also gained control over Li Huai's army. The Crown Prince listed out Li Huai's various crimes: poisoning Consort Yun, embezzling funds, and switching Xu Huaiqing's exam papers with those of outstanding students, leading to Xu Huaiqing being investigated in the Cat Demon case and ultimately poisoned to death. Li Huai was shocked to hear this and realized that the situation was already lost. His fate was sealed today. He deliberately used Consort Yun's death to provoke Mu Zhixi. In a fit of anger, Mu Zhixi killed him with a single sword strike.
The Emperor secretly handed the imperial seal to Kong Qiqi and instructed her to find Mu Zhixi through a secret passage. Li Huai's men wanted to capture the Emperor to threaten the Crown Prince, but Kong Qiqi forced their hand, leading the ministers to drive away Li Huai's men. She went to find Mu Zhixi alone.
