> Resumos de Song of Youth
The Sun family rejoices as Sun Yulou returns, having resolved a crisis and earned imperial commendation. Sun Shijie also brings Wu Yuehong back, and she reconciles with Sun Xun and Shen Qingyao. However, their happiness is cut short when their steward, Huan Lang, is found unconscious with a ransom note: Sun Yulou has been abducted by bandits led by Chai Tou, who demand 300,000 taels.
Sun Xun hesitates to pay, fearing accusations of corruption, so Shen Qingyao sends a maid to seek Lin Shaochun's help. Lin Shaochun arrives with a cart of "silver" that is mostly stones. When the bandits discover the trick and threaten Sun Yulou's life, Lin Shaochun proposes a plan: Sun Yulou will write down Sun Xun's alleged crimes, and the bandits can regularly extort money from the Sun family.
Sun Yulou initially refuses to implicate his father, so Lin Shaochun writes the charges herself and forces his handprint. The bandits agree. However, Lin Shaochun had used a special vanishing ink. Soon after, the bandits are ambushed and captured by officials under Magistrate Du. During interrogation, Chai Tou presents the "evidence," which has turned into a blank paper. Magistrate Du, finding no proof of corruption, orders the bandits' execution. Sun Yulou thanks Lin Shaochun and promises to marry her.
Sun Yulou reports his success to the Emperor, who, wanting to bestow honors, asks what Sun Yulou desires. Sun Yulou requests an imperial marriage to Lin Shaochun, which the Emperor grants, along with honors for the couple. Sun Xun is surprised but accepts the decree. Later, Sun Xun tries to dissuade Lin Shaochun by recounting a tale of a scholar whose career was ruined by marrying a commoner, but Lin Shaochun eloquently counters, valuing love and character above status.
Impressed, Sun Xun gives his blessing for the marriage. Meanwhile, Liang Jingguan worries about Lin Shaochun's intelligence strengthening Sun Xun's position, but Jia Fengyuan assures him of his plot to bring Sun Xun down. Jia Fengyuan manipulates Su Yingxue into obtaining Sun Xun's handwritten Diamond Sutra, falsely claiming he would sell it to elope with her.
Leveraging the fact that Lin Shaochun's father, Lin Yuandao, died when Sun Xun was head of the imperial treasury, Jia Fengyuan forges evidence implicating Sun Xun in Lin Yuandao's death, using Liu Ying and Prime Minister Wu as scapegoats. He delivers this "evidence" and a bottle of oleander poison to Lin Shaochun, instructing her to poison Sun Xun's tea on her wedding day.
Lin Shaochun, though skeptical, secretly visits Sun Xun's study with Sun Yulou and confirms the forged letters' handwriting matches Sun Xun's, deepening her suspicions. On their wedding day, Sun Yulou and Lin Shaochun complete their ceremony. During the tea-serving ritual, Lin Shaochun offers tea to Sun Xun. Shortly after drinking, Sun Xun begins to vomit blood. Xu Fengqiao immediately accuses Lin Shaochun of poisoning him.
Lin Shaochun appears to confess or offers no defense, leading Shen Qingyao to order her arrest, much to Sun Yulou's shock. Liang Jingguan anxiously awaits news of Sun Xun's death. Su Yingxue, sent by Jia Fengyuan, learns from Shen Qingyao that Sun Xun is in critical condition. Fearing Sun Xun might recover, Liang Jingguan and Jia Fengyuan arrange for the renowned divine doctor Zhu Wuji to be kidnapped and replaced by an imposter.
Sun Yulou, convinced Lin Shaochun had a hidden motive, finds a harmless tea stalk, which Imperial Physician Jiang confirms is non-poisonous. The imposter Zhu Wuji arrives at the Sun mansion to administer a fatal "treatment," but Sun Xun unexpectedly wakes up, revealing he was never actually poisoned.
