White Cat Legend Episode 10 Recap
> White Cat Legend Recap
Chen Shi took out all his savings and bought pork for the kitchen, asking the cook to make delicious meat buns for Wang Qi's farewell. Wang Qi ate several buns with tears in his eyes and reluctantly said goodbye to Chen Shi. After Wang Qi left Court of Judicial Review, Sun Bao and Alibaba came out of the room.
Having worked together for a while, they couldn't bear to see the sad scene of Wang Qi leaving Court of Judicial Review, but Sun Bao comforted Chen Shi not to be sad. Wang Qi was living in the mansion across from Court of Judicial Review that Alibaba had bought, so they could meet anytime. Upon hearing this, Chen Shi blamed the two for not telling him sooner, causing him to spend all his money.
Alibaba took out a few taels of silver bits as compensation for Chen Shi. Cui Bei was ordered to collect books at the Yuanwailang's house and quickly completed the task. After bringing the books to Li Bing, he intentionally walked over to Li Bing to look at the official document.
Li Bing had drafted the document to dismiss Wang Qi, but he had not yet stamped it with the Court of Judicial Review Deputy Minister's seal, indicating he was still hesitating about Wang Qi's departure. Cui Bei began to plead for Wang Qi. Although Wang Qi had made mistakes, he had previously managed many tasks, putting in a lot of effort and labor.
Furthermore, with the heavy workload at Court of Judicial Review now, without Wang Qi, the others would likely be overwhelmed. Seeing Cui Bei's sincerity, Li Bing stated he had his own plan. That night, Yi Zhi Hua suddenly appeared in the prison cell. After using illusions to control the jailer, the jailer obediently handed over the cell keys. Yi Zhi Hua walked up to the roof repairman and said he wanted to play a game.
Before the repairman could react, he was firmly pressed onto a pile of straw by Yi Zhi Hua. Chen Shi brought Li Bing some incense and unintentionally mentioned Wang Qi had just left, looking dejected. Li Bing told Chen Shi that the Yuanwailang case was not over yet. Although the roof repairman had confessed to the crime, he lacked a reasonable motive for murder. Furthermore, the repairman was clearly searching for something.
Before the Yuanwailang's death, he had brought some case files home from the Ministry of Justice, and the repairman was likely searching for these things. Li Bing continued to analyze. On the day of the incident, the Yuanwailang's roof leaked, so there should have been some damp case files. However, the files Cui Bei brought back showed no signs of being damp.
Only on the back of the coming-of-age ceremony booklet the Yuanwailang wrote for his sister were the three characters "一枝花" stamped. Therefore, the repairman was likely looking for files related to Yi Zhi Hua. His dismissal of Wang Qi was simply because he didn't want more people to get involved in this dangerous situation.
He received the case from the Minister of Rites' residence, indicating that Yi Zhi Hua had some connection to the Minister of Rites and the demon cat case from three years ago. As the two were talking, a figure flashed past the window. Li Bing quickly ran out of the room and saw a handkerchief placed at the door, wrapped around a few teeth.
Li Bing immediately felt something was wrong and was about to go to the prison to check when Qiu Qingzhi suddenly appeared, demanding the Yuanwailang suspect from Court of Judicial Review. Shangguan Qin and Li Bing argued reasonably, but then suddenly received news that the roof repairman had died tragically in prison. The group rushed there. Qiu Qingzhi pulled open the repairman's clothes and found another handkerchief.
When combined with the handkerchief Li Bing found, they formed a piece of foreign text. None of them recognized it. Fortunately, Alibaba was a Hu person. After careful examination, he could only decipher the name of a place mentioned in it: slave camp. Qiu Qingzhi turned and left Court of Judicial Review. Li Bing seemed to have discovered something and quietly followed behind Qiu Qingzhi.
When Qiu Qingzhi arrived at the slave camp, Li Bing suddenly appeared, and Qiu Qingzhi realized he had been followed. Li Bing brought up their past together. Several years ago, Qiu Qingzhi was an escaped prisoner from a slave camp. Li Bing secretly took him in without telling his father. Later, after Li Ji learned about the situation, he took Qiu Qingzhi to join the army and fight, promising to help him get rid of his slave status.
After the war, Qiu Qingzhi, through his own efforts, had become the Left Guard General, so Li Ji did not pay attention to his previous promise. However, Qiu Qingzhi had always held a grudge, believing the Li father and son had broken their promise to him. Yi Zhi Hua suddenly appeared at the entrance of the slave camp and told Li Bing to defeat him to learn the secret. Li Bing was clearly not strong enough.
Yi Zhi Hua prompted Li Bing to switch to another form. Only then did Li Bing realize that his ability to transform into a cat form was related to Yi Zhi Hua, and that even Qiu Qingzhi was taking orders from Yi Zhi Hua.
