My Merman Brother Recap

Episode 1 Recap

The story takes place in the Daqin Kingdom, Nanzhao Kingdom and Beiqi Kingdom during the period of the three kingdoms. National Division Lin Weixu made a great contribution to Daqin Kingdom by leading her troops to take down Nanzhao Kingdom. After Nanzhao Kingdom was destroyed, Prince Fu Su was also captured by Da Li Si and escaped from there.

One day, Lin Weixu and her attendant A Jiu were walking on the street when they suddenly saw people from Da Li Si chasing Fu Su. Fu Su was covered by a fishing net and surrounded by people from Da Li Si who kept beating him. One of them even said that this little merman should be played with and that he dared to escape. Today he must be taught a lesson.

Seeing them beating him like this, Lin Weixu couldn’t bear it and went up to fight with A Jiu. When people from Da Li Si saw them fighting back, they asked about their origins. A Jiu then revealed the name of the National Division’s Mansion. When they heard that they were from the National Division’s Mansion, those people from Da Li Si quickly fled.

Lin Weixu returned to her mansion and saw a dagger on the table. She couldn’t help but think of the scene where her master was killed. She was holding the dagger in a daze when A Jiu came over to report that the little merman they saved had followed them to the mansion. Lin Weixu looked at the merman’s beautiful face that brought disaster to the country and his blue eyes like the sea, so she let him stay.

Episode 2 Recap

Lin Weixu had someone take Fu Su to take a bath and change his clothes. After the bath, Fu Su became even more handsome. Lin Weixu had the kitchen make him some dishes and Fu Su ate them ravenously. Lin Weixu smiled and asked him if it was true that merfolk were not afraid of poison. Fu Su thought that Lin Weixu had poisoned his food and quickly put down his chopsticks. Lin Weixu quickly explained that she didn’t poison his food.

Lin Weixu took out the dagger made from the fish fins of the merfolk and asked Fu Su if he recognized it. Fu Su looked at the dagger and shook his head. After Fu Su finished his meal, Lin Weixu held up his chin and was admiring him when his senior brother Gu Danmo suddenly walked in. Seeing this scene before him, Gu Danmo suddenly became jealous and left in anger. Lin Weixu chased after him.

Lin Weixu told Gu Danmo that she kept Fu Su only to investigate who killed her master, but Gu Danmo didn’t believe that her purpose was so simple. He suggested taking Fu Su away for questioning, but Lin Weixu refused resolutely. The two were arguing when A Jiu suddenly came to report that the young master and Fu Su were fighting.

Episode 3 Recap

Lin Weixu apologized to Danmo after hearing A Jiu’s report and left. When she returned home, she saw her younger brother Xiao Linzi fighting with Fu Su. The room was a mess after the fight. When Lin Weixu arrived, Xiao Linzi asked his sister angrily when she started keeping a little white face in her room and if Danmo knew about it. He also reminded his sister that he only recognized Danmo as his brother-in-law. Lin Weixu asked A Jiu to take Xiao Linzi away.

Lin Weixu took Fu Su to take a bath and saw him sitting in the bathtub. Lin Weixu curiously asked him where his fins were since all merpeople have fins. Fu Su replied that his fins could only be used in the ocean. He also asked Lin Weixu curiously why she took him in. Lin Weixu replied frankly that it was because she liked him.

Lin Weixu also found out that Fu Su’s martial arts were not bad when he fought with Xiao Linzi. She asked Fu Su curiously why he didn’t fight back when people from Da Li Si were beating him up, but Fu Su didn’t answer this question.

While they were talking, Lin Weixu suddenly felt dizzy. Fu Su found out that Lin Weixu was poisoned by the water-forbidden curse because merpeople’s blood can cure this kind of poison. So Fu Su bit his own lip and suddenly kissed Lin Weixu.

Episode 4 Recap

After being kissed by Fu Su, Lin Weixu also felt confused and infatuated. As a result, she had a relationship with him. The next morning, Lin Weixu found Fu Su lying in the same bed as her, smiling at her. She pushed him away. Fu Su asked Lin Weixu when they would hold their wedding. Lin Weixu told him not to daydream because she wouldn’t be responsible for him. Fu Su then asked Lin Weixu if she knew that he had been poisoned by the Water Forbidden Curse and explained to her that the Water Forbidden Curse was a cold poison that would flare up when it encountered cold water, and that their mermaid blood could relieve this poison. Lin Weixu looked at Fu Su displeasedly after hearing this. She thought that Fu Su was trying to tell her that she couldn’t live without him in this life. Fu Su quickly declared to her that he didn’t mean it and told Lin Weixu that the elders of Nanzhao Kingdom might know how to solve this poison.

Lin Weixu came to burn incense for her master. Gu Danmo looked at her displeasedly and found out that she had even forgotten her master’s death anniversary. Lin Weixu quickly explained to him that the mermaid’s mouth was a bit hard and that she had interrogated him. Speaking of this, she couldn’t help but think of the scene where Fu Su kissed her. Gu Danmo wanted to take Fu Su away for interrogation, but Lin Weixu still refused.

A curious woman asked Xiao Linzi how he got the scar on his face. Xiao Linzi explained to her that the prince of Nanzhao Kingdom dared to seduce Lin Weixu, so he couldn’t help but teach him a lesson.

Episode 5 Recap

The reason why Fu Su came to the National Division was that he saw the dagger in Lin Weixu’s hand. That dagger belonged to his mother. He believed that staying in the National Division would definitely help him find out about his mother’s whereabouts. When Lin Weixu was not around, he began to search around the National Division.

Fu Su saw A Jiu leading people and hurriedly walking towards the hall of the National Division. So he curiously followed and saw that people from Da Li Si had come to make trouble. The two sides argued fiercely. Fu Su suddenly walked in and lightly pushed with both palms. The people from Da Li Si fell to the ground. Fu Su stepped on the chest of the Da Li Si’s chief and warned him that if he dared to cause trouble at the National Division again, he would not be polite.

The chief of Da Li Si did not expect Fu Su to be so powerful, so he had to leave with his people in a hurry. But he couldn’t stand this, so he went to the emperor to complain. He said that Lin Weixu was keeping captives privately without permission. The emperor summoned Lin Weixu to the hall and was about to make trouble. Lin Weixu reminded the emperor whether he still remembered what he had promised her before destroying Nanzhao Kingdom. After hearing what Lin Weixu said, the emperor asked her what reward she wanted. Lin Weixu told him that she wanted Fu Su as her reward, and the emperor readily agreed.

Episode 6 Recap

Lin Weixu called Fu Su to her room after she returned and whipped him with a leather whip while warning him not to use magic without permission again. Fu Su was not happy with this and said that he would not sit idly by if they were not good to Lin Weixu. He then bit Lin Weixu’s hand.

Fu Su proposed a condition to Lin Weixu that there could be no other men in her eyes. After hearing about his condition, Lin Weixu smiled and said that it would depend on his ability. She did not punish Fu Su again after that and promoted him to be the guard captain of the National Division.

Gu Danmo arrived at the National Division’s mansion. When Fu Su came to stop him, Gu Danmo told him not to get carried away and not to think that Lin Weixu really liked him. The reason Lin Weixu kept him in the mansion was only because he looked like someone else. Fu Su didn’t understand what he meant, so he went to see the painting that Gu Danmo was talking about.

Gu Danmo was staring blankly at the painting of the old National Division when Lin Weixu suddenly walked in. Before Fu Su could ask anything, Lin Weixu angrily asked him who let him come here and then had someone lock him up in a firewood room.

Xiao Linzi came to the firewood room to tease Fu Su, saying that he was just a pet dog raised by his sister. As he spoke, he suddenly couldn’t help laughing and kept laughing. He realized that Fu Su had cast a spell on him.

Episode 7 Recap

Gu Danmo called his subordinates to him and whispered a few words in his ear. The next day, news spread that Li An from Dali City had been killed. Because the wound on Li An’s neck was formed by the fins of a mermaid, the people from Da Li Si suspected that Fu Su was responsible for this and came to the National Division’s mansion to force Lin Weixu to hand over Fu Su.

Lin Weixu also suspected that Fu Su was responsible when he saw Li An’s wound. She didn’t know how to face the people from Da Li Si. Fu Su suddenly stood in front of her wearing shackles and handcuffs. Lin Weixu had an idea and told the people from Da Li Si that Fu Su had been imprisoned in her room all along and couldn’t have gone out to kill anyone. When the people from Da Li Si were still skeptical, she put her hand into Fu Su’s clothes and asked them if they wanted to hear about his relationship with her.

Lin Weixu’s words stunned everyone present. The people from Da Li Si wanted to scold her for being shameless, but given their previous lesson, they didn’t dare to speak up. After the people from Da Li Si left, Lin Weixu questioned Fu Su about why he killed Li An because she didn’t believe that the shackles and handcuffs could hold him down. But Fu Su denied it and Lin Weixu didn’t let him explain.

Episode 8 Recap

Lin Weixu knew that someone was targeting Fu Su and decided to drive him away to avoid him getting hurt. Fu Su reminded her in a hurry not to forget that her poison had not been cured yet. Lin Weixu heartlessly told him that he didn’t need to worry about it and ordered someone to drive him out. Fu Su stubbornly stood up and said he could walk. After speaking, he left the National Division’s mansion.

Watching Fu Su’s back as he left, Lin Weixu couldn’t help feeling a little sad. Xiao Linzi came to see Lin Weixu and saw her staring at the book written by Gu Danmo. He teased his sister that she had just sent away her new lover and was already thinking about her old love. Lin Weixu looked at his mouth that was begging to be punched and told him to get lost.

At night, Lin Weixu tossed and turned in bed, unable to sleep as she kept thinking about the scenes of her and Fu Su together. Suddenly there was a commotion outside the door and she quickly got up and went out.

After leaving the National Division’s mansion, Fu Su walked on the street like a headless fly. He felt more and more uncomfortable and couldn’t help but return to the National Division’s mansion. A Jiu was about to scold him when Lin Weixu suddenly walked over and asked A Jiu to leave.

Fu Su saw Lin Weixu coming and hugged her like a fish seeing water. Lin Weixu saw that he looked pale and was wondering what was going on when Fu Su suddenly hugged her and kissed her like the first time he detoxified her.

Episode 9 Recap

After Fu Su kissed Lin Weixu, he carried her to bed. The next day, Lin Weixu woke up and looked at Fu Su in front of her. She couldn’t help but feel a little excited again. But when Fu Su saw Lin Weixu, he seemed as if nothing had happened and still had a serious face. Lin Weixu reminded him that they had done that last night and asked why he wasn’t happy. Fu Su replied that even if they did that, it didn’t matter since Lin Weixu had said she wouldn’t be responsible for him. Lin Weixu whispered in his ear that she was very satisfied with his performance last night. When Fu Su learned that he could stay, he was very happy.

Lin Weixu looked up some information and found out why Fu Su lost his mind last night. It turned out that according to the information she found, mermaids go into heat at 18 years old and feel weak on the night of the full moon. Once they mate with someone, they will only recognize that person for the rest of their life. Lin Weixu was reading it with great interest when Fu Su suddenly walked in and she felt embarrassed and closed the book.

Fu Su brought some delicious food to Lin Weixu and told her that he loved human food very much. But since his mother disappeared, no one has cooked for him anymore. When his mother left him, he had just started to remember things and he didn’t even remember what his mother looked like.

Episode 10 Recap

Lin Weixu asked Fu Su if his mother’s name was Yan Chu. When Lin Weixu said his mother’s name, Fu Su grabbed her hand excitedly and asked if she had seen his mother. Lin Weixu told him that she had never seen his mother and that she only knew the name Yan Chu from a book. Fu Su was very disappointed when he heard this. He told Lin Weixu that if there was any news about his mother in the future, she must inform him as soon as possible. When Lin Weixu promised him, he kissed her again happily. Lin Weixu hugged him and looked at him with pity. At this moment, a dark shadow flashed in front of Lin Weixu’s door.

That dark shadow was Tan Mo. Tan Mo found out that Fu Su was still in Lin Weixu’s mansion and scolded the servants severely. After the servants left, he remembered what his master had said to him. He had told his master that he wanted to marry Lin Weixu, but his master thought they were not suitable for each other. When he asked why, his master told him it was because he had too much ambition but not enough courage.

Lin Weixu requested the emperor to thoroughly investigate the case of her master’s murder. But the emperor turned around and wanted to investigate the case of Li An’s murder instead. Although it was not necessarily Fu Su who did it, as a mermaid, Fu Su was definitely suspected of being involved in Li An’s murder. Lin Weixu told the emperor angrily that they should investigate both cases together. Tan Mo walked on the street and felt someone following him. When he turned around, he was knocked unconscious by someone.

Episode 11 Recap

Fu Su has been studying very hard lately. He even told Lin Weixu that he would be as excellent as Gu Danmo given time. Lin Weixu reminded him not to mention martial arts in front of Gu Danmo because Gu Danmo was always interested in literature and knew nothing about martial arts. This made Fu Su feel very strange. He told Lin Weixu that Gu Danmo not only knew martial arts but also kept it hidden. Once he saw a maid accidentally knock over a cup on Fu Su’s table, and Gu Danmo caught the cup with lightning speed.

While they were talking, someone rushed in and told Lin Weixu some bad news that Gu Danmo had been kidnapped. Upon hearing this news, Lin Weixu hurried to the place where Gu Danmo had the accident. But before she could find Gu Danmo, she was knocked unconscious by someone.

When Lin Weixu woke up, she found herself tied up. She was wondering where she was when Gu Danmo suddenly walked in and untied her. He was about to ask her something when Lin Weixu seemed to have been drugged and didn’t avoid him. At this moment, Fu Su suddenly appeared and pushed Gu Danmo away with one palm. Then he kissed Lin Weixu instead of Gu Danmo. Seeing this situation, Gu Danmo became angry and rushed up to punch Fu Su but was pushed away again by Fu Su’s palm. After pushing away Gu Danmo, Fu Su picked up Lin Weixu and left.

Episode 12 Recap

Lin Weixu woke up and found Fu Su lying next to her. She then pinched his nose and thanked him for saving her again. Fu Su told her not to worry because he would never let anyone hurt her. At this moment, Lin Weixu suddenly thought of Danmo and asked Fu Su anxiously how Danmo was doing. Fu Su snorted and replied contemptuously that he could only use himself as bait for Lin Weixu.

While the two were talking, A Jiu suddenly walked in and reported to Lin Weixu that the old National Division’s room had been robbed. After hearing this, Lin Weixu hurriedly took Fu Su and went over there. After a careful inspection, A Jiu found that the thief had only taken some calligraphy and paintings from the old National Division’s room. She laughed at the thief for not knowing what was valuable. However, Lin Weixu told A Jiu that nothing was more valuable than the calligraphy and paintings of the old National Division in her heart. In the old National Division’s room, Fu Su smelled a fragrance and thought of a woman through this fragrance.

Lin Weixu returned to her mansion but did not see Fu Su. Instead, she found a note with Chen Moxi’s name on it.

At this moment, Danmo was standing in front of a man in black. He learned that Chen Moxi had been exposed and the man in black told Danmo without hesitation to get rid of her immediately. The man in black gave Danmo a pill and reminded him not to play any tricks, otherwise he would die of poisoning. Lin Weixu thought that Chen Moxi could not be a spy. At this time, Lin Weixu suddenly realized that the other party might kill people to silence them. So she hurried to the Jiaofang Division but found Fu Su holding Chen Moxi.

Episode 13 Recap

Seeing Fu Su holding Chen Moxi, Lin Weixu couldn’t help but feel jealous. So she asked Fu Su why he was here. No wonder she couldn’t find him today. As his guard, he actually went to protect another woman. Fu Su hurriedly explained to Lin Weixu that he was just passing by and saw that Chen Moxi was in trouble. He accidentally saved her. It would have been better if Fu Su didn’t explain because this explanation made Lin Weixu even angrier. Because the National Division Mansion was far away from here, Fu Su couldn’t have walked here.

Lin Weixu questioned Chen Moxi whether he was a spy from Beiqi Kingdom. Chen Moxi admitted frankly that he was indeed a spy from Beiqi Kingdom, but he was only a relay station for intelligence and could only access fragmented intelligence. Through conversation with Chen Moxi, Lin Weixu had already guessed that he was just a pawn of Beiqi Kingdom.

After returning to the National Division Mansion, Fu Su saw that Lin Weixu was still angry and took the initiative to tell her the truth. Because he smelled the fragrance on Chen Moxi’s body in the old National Division’s study, he was curious why Chen Moxi wanted to steal the old National Division’s calligraphy and painting, so he went to see it and happened to meet Chen Moxi being attacked by someone, so he saved her.

Lin Rulian couldn’t believe that Chen Moxi was a spy from Beiqi Kingdom. Lin Rulian is Xiao Linzi’s full name and he is currently worried. Gu Danmo suddenly walked in with a box of snacks. Lin Rulian happily took the snacks and said that he wanted to give them to Chen Moxi to eat. From this, Gu Danmo realized that Chen Moxi had not died yet.

Episode 14 Recap

Lin Rulian took the snack and said he wanted to give it to Chen Moxi. As soon as he said this, he suddenly remembered what his sister had told him. He quickly changed his words and said that Chen Moxi could no longer eat it now. But this has aroused Gu Danmo’s suspicion. So he ordered an investigation and found that Chen Moxi was indeed still alive and was hidden by Lin Weixu in the National Division’s mansion. He ordered his men to act again and must kill Chen Moxi.

Lin Rulian accompanied Chen Moxi and tried various ways to make her happy. But Chen Moxi couldn’t be happy no matter what she thought about her uncertain future. At this time, Lin Rulian picked up the teacup on the table and made a fuss about drinking tea with her. Lin Rulian had just drunk the tea, and blood began to flow from his mouth. 

Chen Moxi cried and begged Fu Su to save Lin Rulian. Fu Su replied unkindly that Lin Rulian was poisoned by their Beiqi Kingdom’s Diao Hun San.

Lin Weixu found a royal doctor. After the royal doctor checked Lin Rulian’s pulse, he shook his head helplessly. Lin Weixu then asked Fu Su to save Lin Rulian with his blood because Lin Rulian was her only brother. However, Fu Su refused. Gu Danmo’s assassination failed, and he was so angry that he smashed the cup on the ground and scolded his subordinates for being ineffective. After venting his anger, he decided to take action himself.

Episode 15 Recap

Lin Weixu cooked several good dishes and invited Fu Su over for a drink. When she saw Fu Su lying on the table, she picked up a knife, but before she could use it, Fu Su suddenly opened his eyes and told her to go ahead and cut him. He said his blood was only for her in this lifetime and told her that all poisons had no effect on merpeople, so the drinks she gave him would not intoxicate him at all.

Lin Weixu felt embarrassed and explained to Fu Su that Lin Rulian was her only younger brother, and she couldn't just ignore him when he was in trouble. Fu Su agreed to her request and decided to use his own blood to save Lin Rulian.

At this time, Lin Rulian was lying on the bed, still in a coma, and Chen Moxi was tired and asleep by his side. Gu Danmo, wearing a night outfit and holding a dagger, walked in. He raised the dagger and was about to attack Chen Moxi when footsteps suddenly came from outside, forcing him to hide the dagger and move aside.

When Fu Su arrived, he woke up Chen Moxi, who gave him space and left. After Chen Moxi left, Fu Su took out the dagger and cut his own hand. He dripped the blood from his hand into Lin Rulian's mouth, and everything he did was seen by Gu Danmo.

Lin Weixu waited anxiously outside, and when she heard Lin Rulian coughing inside, she breathed a sigh of relief and thanked Fu Su. However, Fu Su was cold and did not want to speak to her. So she intentionally pestered him, and Fu Su impatiently asked her what she wanted, saying that he had already fulfilled her request. Suddenly, Lin Weixu hugged Fu Su from behind and said she wanted him.

Episode 16 Recap

Upon seeing Lin Weixu crying, Fu Su's heart softened. Just as Lin Weixu took the opportunity to kiss him, A Jiu suddenly rushed in with good news: Lin Rulian had awakened. The two of them hurriedly ran over to check on him.

After Lin Rulian woke up, he was very angry. He couldn't believe they had used such despicable means to harm him. Chen Moxi was overjoyed to see that Lin Rulian was alright and ran into his arms, telling him how worried she had been during his coma. Lin Rulian hugged her back, feeling proud and happy. Seeing this, Fu Su and Lin Weixu were also happy for them. Lin Rulian secretly waved his hand, indicating that they should leave.

After returning home, Gu Danmo searched for some information and found out that the blood of the merfolk could indeed cure any poison. He was overjoyed. Lin Weixu reported to the emperor with the letters from Chen Moxi, suspecting that there were spies from Beiqi Kingdom hiding in Daqin Kingdom. She also believed that this person held a high position. Therefore, she hoped that the emperor would order a search of the residences of the high-ranking officials in the court. Before the emperor could respond, Gu Danmo suddenly walked in and told him that the fish bone sword that killed the National Division was Fu Su's mother's. He suspected that Fu Su had ulterior motives in approaching Lin Weixu. The emperor believed his slander and ordered Fu Su to be imprisoned in the dungeon.

Episode 17 Recap

Lin Weixu walked into the dungeon and asked Fu Su with great concern when he discovered that the dagger belonged to his mother. Fu Su candidly replied that he first saw the dagger on Lin Weixu's desk when he visited her for the first time. Lin Weixu understood everything and realized that Fu Su had only approached her to use her to investigate his mother's situation.

Lin Weixu asked Fu Su if he had found anything. Fu Su told her that he suspected Gu Danmo was a spy from Beiqi Kingdom, but Lin Weixu didn't believe it. She told Fu Su that Gu Danmo had her mother's portrait because he had obtained it by chance during his visit to Beiqi Kingdom as an envoy. Despite her words, Lin Weixu started investigating Gu Danmo.

Lin Weixu secretly went to Gu Danmo's room and found a letter left by her master on his bookshelf. In the letter, her master said that she and Gu Danmo were meant to be together. While Lin Weixu was reading the letter, Gu Danmo suddenly walked in. She asked him about his investigation, and Gu Danmo confidently replied that Yan Chu was both the queen of Beiqi and Nanzhao Kingdoms. Since Fu Su was her son, he could not be ruled out as a suspect. Therefore, he suspected that Fu Su was a spy from Beiqi Kingdom.

Episode 18 Recap

A heavy rain fell from the sky, and Fu Su realized that Lin Weixu's water forbidden curse was about to flare up. He couldn't stay in the prison cell any longer, so he opened the door and walked out. The guards of the cell were just about to stop him when Fu Su lifted his hand and knocked them unconscious with a gentle wave.

After returning to the National Division's residence, Fu Su saw that Lin Weixu's water-forbidden curse had indeed flared up again. He carried her to the bed and kissed her by biting his lip. After doing this, he turned around and left, telling Lin Weixu in his heart that he had never wanted to deceive or harm her. Lin Weixu was the first person to treat him kindly, but he could only bring her misfortune. Therefore, he decided to temporarily leave her and return when he found a way to completely remove the water-forbidden curse.

As Fu Su walked out of Lin Weixu's room, he met Lin Rulian and Chen Moxi face to face. Because Fu Su always caused trouble for Lin Weixu, Lin Rulian believed that he was Lin Weixu's jinx and punched him in anger. Fu Su didn't retaliate and instead asked Chen Moxi about the situation with his mother, Yan Chu. Chen Moxi told Fu Su that a few years ago, on the border between the Beiqi Kingdom and Nanzhao Kingdom, someone found Yan Chu and sent her to the Beiqi King. The Beiqi King then made Yan Chu his concubine, and Chen Moxi also told Fu Su that to see Yan Chu, he would need a special token, which she didn't have, but her superior should have.

Episode 19 Recap

Official Ning from the Da Li Si had suspicions about Gu Danmo, so he quietly went to Gu Danmo's room while he was away and found various weapons inside. He was looking for a fishbone dagger when Gu Danmo suddenly came in. Official Ning smiled and asked Gu Danmo about his interest in collecting weapons, but Gu Danmo didn't answer and suddenly pulled out the dagger, stabbing Official Ning in the chest when he was off guard.

After killing Official Ning, Gu Danmo framed the murderer of Fu Su and reported it to the emperor. Both Li An and Official Ning from the Da Li Si had conflicts with Fu Su, so Gu Danmo suspected that Fu Su was the culprit. He also suspected that Fu Su was a spy from the Beiqi Kingdom, who had now fled in fear. Gu Danmo requested that the emperor issued a decree to capture Fu Su.

Hearing Gu Danmo's words, the emperor's face became very dark, and looked displeased at Lin Weixu. Lin Weixu hurriedly explained that Fu Su was definitely not a spy from the Beiqi Kingdom. She asked the emperor for a few days to find Fu Su and investigate the matter to give the emperor an explanation. The emperor agreed to her request.

Lin Weixu went to Gu Danmo to learn more about the situation. When she saw him, she noticed that he didn't look well and asked him what was wrong. Gu Danmo coughed and told her that he was attacked by Fu Su, but his martial arts skills were not as good as Fu Su's and he managed to escape.

Episode 20 Recap

Lin Weixu learned that Fu Su had attacked Gu Danmo, and from Gu Danmo's expression, it didn't seem like he was lying. She felt uneasy and walked back home without any spirit. Suddenly, someone blocked her path, and she looked up to see that it was Fu Su. She intentionally ignored him, but Fu Su quickly explained that he didn't attack her senior brother and hadn't hurt him. Then, he suddenly hugged Lin Weixu, but she pushed him away and told him not to appear in her sight before leaving. After Lin Weixu left, Fu Su was lost in thought, looking at her back. Suddenly, someone attacked him. When he woke up, he found himself tied to a pillar. He opened his eyes, still groggy, and saw that it was Gu Danmo standing in front of him. Gu Danmo laughed and asked if Fu Su had thought about the possibility of him being captured one day. But Fu Su warned Gu Danmo that he should be grateful, as Fu Su still didn't want to kill him. After hearing Fu Su's words, Gu Danmo realized that what Fu Su was hesitating about was his mother. When Gu Danmo mentioned his mother's name, Fu Su suddenly grabbed his neck and asked him what had happened to his mother. Gu Danmo coldly told him that Yan Chu was quite strong, but he had cut off her fins, and she still refused to surrender. If Fu Su didn't want Yan Chu to be harmed, he'd better be honest. Fu Su felt deflated and let Gu Danmo continue to torture him. Soon, a dagger cut Fu Su's arm, and drops of blood flowed into a bowl.

Episode 21 Recap

After obtaining Fu Su's blood, Gu Danmo drank it as if it were a beverage, and the poison on his body was indeed cured. When Lin Weixu returned home and found that Fu Su did not come back with him, she muttered discontentedly that this dead fish was not allowed to appear in her sight, but he was so obedient.

The next day, Lin Rulian found Lin Weixu and told her that Fu Su had caused trouble again. He also told her that Fu Su had used his blood to save Gu Danmo. When Lin Rulian referred to both Fu Su and Gu Danmo as his brothers-in-law, Lin Weixu asked him not to make random comments, but Lin Rulian said she had started something but didn't finish it.

While they were talking, A Jiu walked over and told Lin Weixu that they had searched everywhere but couldn't find Fu Su. Upon hearing this, Lin Weixu felt very sad. After Lin Rulian and A Jiu left, Lin Weixu couldn't help but cry when she thought about being with Fu Su after they met.

Later, Lin Weixu remembered what Fu Su had said to her, that he admitted to approaching her to investigate the whereabouts of his mother. Then Lin Weixu asked him if he found any clues. Fu Su told her that he suspected that Gu Danmo was a spy from Beiqi Kingdom. At the time, Lin Weixu didn't pay much attention to what Fu Su said, but now she thought there were many suspicious things about Gu Danmo. Lin Weixu was thinking about how to find Gu Danmo to learn more about the situation when Gu Danmo suddenly appeared in front of her.

Episode 22 Recap

When Gu Danmo arrived, Lin Weixu had a table of food and wine prepared for him. She drank with him and tried to get useful information from him. She pretended to be very upset and told Gu Danmo that she didn't expect Fu Su to betray her, and since he had already betrayed her, he was of no further use. At this moment, Fu Su was tied up in Gu Danmo's prison and seemed to sense something when Lin Weixu spoke.

Lin Weixu also reminded Gu Danmo that Fu Su was still on the run and must be caught as soon as possible, otherwise innocent people would continue to suffer. Later, Lin Weixu talked to Gu Danmo about their master, feeling sad and saying that she saw the killer escape in front of her after their master was killed. She observed Gu Danmo's face, which did indeed begin to look unnatural, and she felt that Fu Su's guess was correct and Gu Danmo had something to hide. To further test Gu Danmo, Lin Weixu deliberately spoke with resentment, defending their master and saying that he had worked hard for Daqin Kingdom, only to be ignored by the Emperor and used as a pawn to start a war between countries. She felt that their master was undervalued.

At this point, Lin Weixu suddenly walked up to Gu Danmo and whispered something in his ear. Gu Danmo felt that her idea was good, and if successful, Lin Weixu could continue to be the National Division while he would not have to be the Grand Tutor and suffer the Emperor's cowardice.

Episode 23 Recap

Lin Weixu arrived at the dungeon of Gu Danmo and saw Fu Su chained to a pillar, covered in blood. She immediately threw herself into his arms and cried, telling him that she never wanted to drive him away. Lin Weixu wanted to rescue Fu Su, but he advised her not to do so, as Gu Danmo would surely change his plan if he escaped. Fu Su also revealed to Lin Weixu that Gu Danmo's ambition was not just limited to their current situation, he wanted to conquer the entire world. After hearing this, Lin Weixu decided to proceed with their plan.

The Emperor was sitting on the throne when Gu Danmo suddenly entered, pointing his sword at him. The Emperor asked why Gu Danmo wanted to rebel, reminding him that he was the Grand Tutor of Daqin Kingdom and held great power. However, Gu Danmo sneered and said that he did not want to remain subordinate to anyone. He had grown tired of being the Grand Tutor in recent years. As he was about to attack the Emperor, Lin Weixu suddenly appeared and held a sword to his neck.

Gu Danmo coldly laughed at Lin Weixu, warning her to think carefully about the consequences of betraying him. He also revealed that their mentor was a warning to them, as he was killed by Gu Danmo. Upon hearing this, Lin Weixu realized that Fu Su's suspicions were correct. She no longer held any reservations towards Gu Danmo and they engaged in a fight. Lin Weixu was no match for Gu Danmo and was eventually defeated, but just as Gu Danmo was about to kill her, Fu Su appeared and struck him down with a single blow. At that moment, the Emperor also stood up and tore off his fish-skin mask.

Episode 24 (Ending) Recap

Gu Danmo's mouth was bleeding as he looked surprised at the Emperor. After the Emperor removed his fishskin mask, Lin Rulian's lovely face was revealed. At that moment, the real Emperor walked into the hall, and a group of Imperial Guards approached and placed a knife at Gu Danmo's neck. The Emperor sneered and said to Gu Danmo that he did not expect his ambitions to be so great. After speaking, he ordered his men to take Gu Danmo to the dungeon. It was then that Gu Danmo realized he had been deceived by Lin Weixu.

As the Imperial Guards escorted Gu Danmo out, he looked at Fu Su and Lin Weixu with resentment. When he walked beside Fu Su, he suddenly kicked the fishbone dagger on the ground and grabbed it, stabbing towards Fu Su. Seeing the situation was not good, Lin Weixu hurriedly blocked Fu Su. When Lin Weixu was stabbed by the dagger and fell to the ground, everyone was shocked.

Lin Weixu lay on the bed, and Lin Rulian comforted Fu Su not to be too sad. He believed that Lin Weixu would be fine. After Lin Rulian left, Fu Su pushed Lin Weixu, telling her not to pretend anymore. Lin Weixu then opened her eyes and sat up, hugging Fu Su tightly. However, Fu Su's mood was not happy.

Lin Weixu knew that Fu Su was worried about his mother, so she called A Jiu to write a petition immediately. She wanted to go to Daqin Kingdom to rescue Fu Su's mother. After hearing Lin Weixu's words, Fu Su became happy. After A Jiu left, he hugged Lin Weixu. In the canopy, the two of them began to enjoy each other's company.
