> Lady Revenger Returns From the Fire Recap
Shen Danqing told Mr. Ouyang the method for brewing pure "Moonlight Meeting" wine. As a token of gratitude, Mr. Ouyang gifted them the painting by Zhou You that he had treasured for many years, stating that this painting might contain a clue about the developing liquid. Mr. Ouyang also saw Shen Danqing as pure-hearted because she was willing to teach him the wine recipe, so he felt comfortable entrusting the painting to her.
Du Yinger discovered that Shen Danqing was enshrining memorial tablets for members of the Luo family, while Shen Zishan had been trying to get her to leave, as if he was afraid she would discover something. Du Yinger sensed that there was something fishy going on. She told Luo Xueer about Shen Danqing enshrining the memorial tablets for Luo Jida and Bin Er.
Luo Xueer then guessed that Luo Ailian might still be alive, and the person who burned in the ancestral hall fire that day might have been Bin Er. Luo Xueer asked Du Yinger if she had ever seen a burn patient at the Shen residence. Du Yinger recalled the burn scar she had seen on the back of Shen Danqing's neck.
Luo Xueer therefore guessed that the real Shen Danqing had fallen gravely ill and passed away long ago, and the person now before Du Yinger might be Luo Ailian. Luo Xueer told Du Yinger not to trust the Shen family from this moment on and to find an opportunity to verify their guess. Xu Chengfeng and Shen Danqing said goodbye to Mr. Ouyang and left.
Along the way, Xu Chengfeng asked Shen Danqing again why she knew how to brew "Moonlight Meeting. " Afterwards, Xu Chengfeng returned Luo Ailian's jade pendant to her, claiming it was "returning the item to its original owner. " Xu Chengfeng discovered the burn scar on the back of Shen Danqing's neck and became even more certain that she was Luo Ailian.
Faced with his questions, Shen Danqing could not deny it, but Xu Chengfeng felt pained by Luo Ailian's past experiences and told Shen Danqing that she didn't need to pretend to be someone else in front of him anymore. Shen Danqing didn't want her background to implicate Xu Chengfeng, but Xu Chengfeng wanted to protect Shen Danqing better, and no matter whether she was Shen Danqing or Luo Ailian, he would not let go.
Xu Chengfeng expressed that he had long held deep feelings for Shen Danqing and would stand before her no matter what happened in the future. Shen Zishan was inevitably jealous when he saw Shen Danqing and Xu Chengfeng return together. Xu Chengfeng told Shen Zishan that they had obtained a clue about the developing liquid and then showed the painting to Shen Zishan.
Both the treasure map and this painting were created by Zhou You, a skilled craftsman from the Southern Dynasty. Shen Danqing wanted to try and find out where Zhou You had traveled before, perhaps there were landscapes depicted in the painting. After discussing the search for the developing liquid, Shen Zishan told Shen Danqing to return to her room to rest. Afterwards, he punched Xu Chengfeng hard.
Shen Zishan felt even more resentful knowing that Xu Chengfeng had discovered Luo Ailian's secret. He was the one who had accompanied Shen Danqing through the long nights, so why was the person Shen Danqing liked precisely Xu Chengfeng? Xu Chengfeng said that feelings have no fairness, and there was no reason for Shen Danqing to like him.
He hoped Shen Zishan could let go of this matter after hitting him to vent and that they could continue to be good brothers. Shen Danqing went to see Yinger, who was feeling unwell, but was refused entry by Yinger. Shen Danqing told Shen Zishan that Xu Chengfeng had discovered her identity and had promised to marry her after everything was resolved. Now that Shen Zishan was her brother, she wanted to seek his consent.
Shen Zishan told Shen Danqing to do what she wanted to do, and he would always support his sister. Prince Yi returned to Liaocheng from the capital. He learned from Zong Wei that Xu Chengfeng and Shen Danqing had traveled alone to find the developing liquid. He ordered his men to quickly search for clues about the developing liquid.
Upon learning that Shen Zishan had spread the news that Shen Danqing was the adopted daughter of the Shen family, Prince Yi was curious about the relationship between Shen Zishan, Shen Danqing, and Xu Chengfeng, and ordered Zong Wei to investigate Shen Zishan thoroughly. Shen Zishan drank to drown his sorrows over love. Prince Yi saw the drunken Shen Zishan in a restaurant and used the shop owner to obtain Shen Zishan's seal.
He wanted to exploit the relationship between Shen Zishan, Shen Danqing, and Xu Chengfeng, and take the opportunity to plot Xu Chengfeng's death. Xu Chengfeng received secret news that the Emperor had learned Xu Chengfeng lost important evidence in Liaocheng, and someone had impeached Xu Chengfeng for dereliction of duty. The Emperor ordered Xu Chengfeng to find important clues in the treasure map case within ten days.
Xu Chengfeng learned that someone close to him had impeached him and guessed that someone had betrayed him. Prince Yi found Shen Zishan and stated that he had written a complaint against Xu Chengfeng on an unsigned paper stamped with Shen Zishan's seal and submitted this paper to the Emperor. Now, Shen Danqing and Xu Chengfeng would surely no longer trust Shen Zishan.
Prince Yi persuaded Shen Zishan to cooperate with him, guaranteeing that he would restore the Shen family's glory. Shen Zishan disdained such vile actions and righteously refused Prince Yi's cooperation. Shen Zishan returned to the residence just in time to hear Xu Chengfeng and Shen Danqing discussing this matter. He proactively admitted that he was the "traitor," having been designed by the cunning Prince Yi who forged the false testimony and submitted it to the Emperor.
Xu Chengfeng stated that they all believed Shen Zishan and that there would be no betrayal or suspicion between them. Shen Danqing specifically bought candied hawthorn for Du Yinger to eat. To prevent Shen Danqing from detecting anything unusual, Du Yinger had to act as usual in front of her. Afterwards, Du Yinger said she wanted to see how Shen Danqing brewed wine before leaving and went with her to Danqing Winery. From Shen Danqing's wine tasting habits, Du Yinger saw that they were indeed consistent with Luo Ailian's habits as described by Luo Xueer.
