> Lady Revenger Returns From the Fire Recap
Luo Ailian was detained in the woodshed. Luo Xueer sent the guards away, hoping Luo Ailian could take the opportunity to escape, but Luo Ailian wanted to stay to investigate the cause of her father's death. Luo Xueer wanted Luo Ailian to first ensure her own safety and investigate the truth later, and that she would stay in the manor to look for clues.
With Luo Xueer's help, Luo Ailian left the Luo manor, but she worried that Luo Xueer would be implicated due to her escape. She wanted to return to the Luo manor but unexpectedly found that the carriage driver was Xu Chengfeng in disguise. Luo Ailian revealed that she had gotten some agarwood powder on her when she held her father's body and speculated that a familiar person had used agarwood powder to trigger her father's asthma and cause his death.
Luo Ailian gave the jade pendant her mother left her to Xu Chengfeng as a token, wishing only that Xu Chengfeng would believe her and help her investigate the truth. Xu Chengfeng chose to believe Luo Ailian this once, accepted the jade pendant as a token, and left Luo Ailian a flare signal for future contact.
Luo Ailian returned to the Luo manor and indeed found agarwood powder in Luo Shuangshuang's room, unable to understand why she would harm their father. Luo Ailian used Xu Chengfeng's name to arrange a meeting with Luo Shuangshuang at the family's ancestral hall in the manor. Luo Ailian pointed out Luo Shuangshuang's actions, forcing her to admit her crime. Seeing the truth exposed, Luo Shuangshuang panicked and knocked Luo Ailian unconscious.
When Zhou Yiniang found out, she wanted to kill Luo Ailian to eliminate future trouble, but was fortunately discovered by Luo family's second uncle Luo Jizhou. Seeing that the situation was bad, Zhou Yiniang revealed the truth that Luo Shuangshuang was Luo Jizhou's daughter. Although Luo Jizhou felt pity for his niece, in order to protect his own daughter, he allowed Zhou Yiniang to set the ancestral hall on fire, wanting to burn Luo Ailian to death there.
Luo Ailian pleaded with her second uncle in vain and was heartbroken by his abandonment. Xu Chengfeng's main purpose for this trip was to investigate the treasure map of the imperial escort being transported by the Shen's Escort Agency. He deeply understood the character of the Shen family's young master and knew that the Shen family would not embezzle the goods.
The young master of Shen's Escort Agency, Shen Zishan, single-handedly retrieved the goods from the Longmen Escort Agency from the bandits. He handed the goods to Escort Master Luo, hoping he could use it to obtain the life-saving Divine Dragon Grass for his sister. On the way back, Shen Zishan accidentally rescued the unconscious Luo Ailian from the river and brought her back to a medical clinic for treatment.
Although Shen Zishan's subordinate brought back the Divine Dragon Grass, Divine Doctor Miao frankly stated that it was too late now and the Divine Dragon Grass was useless for Shen Danqing. The only way now to save her life was to replace Shen Danqing's heart. Now that Luo Ailian was rescued by Shen Zishan and her face was disfigured, she was currently the best candidate.
Shen Danqing was unwilling for others to die because of her and made a decision for her brother Shen Zishan; she chose to die to resolve her brother's burden. Divine Doctor Miao suggested putting Danqing's face onto the disfigured Luo Ailian's face, so that Old Master Shen would not worsen his condition due to the loss of his daughter. Even as a substitute, Shen Danqing's life might be able to continue in this way.
Luo Ailian, who woke up from her coma, overheard their conversation. She was willing to accept the face change and endure the pain to survive. After a process of changing her face and rebirth, Luo Ailian saw her new face and realized that she had met Shen Danqing once at the temple. Shen Zishan learned that the woman he rescued was the eldest daughter of the Luo family from Ganlutang, Luo Ailian.
When she was tied up in the Luo family ancestral hall and struggled to escape, she was subjected to further harm. It was her maid Bin Er who desperately rescued Luo Ailian, but Bin Er accidentally fell into the ancestral hall and died in the Luo manor in place of Luo Ailian.
Zhou Yiniang, on the grounds that a person who murdered their father was not worthy of being buried in the Luo family, threw the body of "Luo Ailian" from the fire into a mass grave. Luo Xueer found her mother Zhou Yiniang's network pouch in the fire ruins and didn't understand why Zhou Yiniang had been to the ancestral hall. Zhou Yiniang instructed Luo Jizhou to have the authorities close the case as soon as possible.
Zhou Yiniang ordered people to spread rumors, saying that the Luo family's legitimate daughter, angered that her father had married her off to the Du family for a ghost marriage, murdered her father and then set herself on fire in the ancestral hall. In order to make Luo Ailian become Shen Danqing, Shen Zishan compiled the growth experiences he shared with his sister.
Luo Ailian learned that Shen Danqing liked painting birds and had excellent martial skills, and she also promised Shen Zishan that she would fulfill Shen Danqing's duties, but she was unwilling to give up revenge. Shen Zishan, however, hoped that Luo Ailian would forget her past and become Shen Danqing in the future. In the following days, Luo Ailian practiced her painting and martial arts diligently, not only wanting to quickly become Shen Danqing but also wanting to avenge her father and herself one day.
