Fierce Bride Recap

Episode 1 Recap

On a dark and stormy night with thunder and lightning, the words "Dragon Mansion" appeared on an old mansion. Inside one of the halls, it was decorated like a mourning hall, but there were two small dolls in red clothes standing on either side and a coffin was placed prominently, adding an extremely oppressive and terrifying atmosphere to the room. Suddenly, the lid of the coffin was shaken and a young woman's screams were heard from inside.

Zhuang Momo is a screenwriter who is racking her brain for a script called "Fierce Bride". She has already written eleven versions, but still can't satisfy the director. Zhuang Momo is extremely distressed about this and thinks that she must have destroyed the Milky Way in her past life to have this unlucky job. Unable to find inspiration, Zhuang Momo falls asleep in frustration on her bed. When she wakes up, she finds herself in a strange environment with the room full of props from "Fierce Bride". Zhuang Momo has traveled through time and space.

Zhuang Momo finds herself wearing a bride's red dress, but when she sees her face in the mirror, she is shocked. In order to satisfy the director's desire to make the script more tragic, Zhuang Momo has made the female lead incredibly ugly. Seeing herself like this, Zhuang Momo yells in anger and faints on the ground. After a while, her maid Xiao Hua comes into the room and discovers Zhuang Momo lying on the ground.

Episode 2 Recap

Xiao Hua saw Zhuang Momo fall to the ground and quickly went to wake her up. When Zhuang Momo saw the beautiful Xiao Hua, she asked who she was. Xiao Hua, with her big watery eyes, said that Miss didn't remember her. She was Zhuang Momo's personal maid, Xiao Hua. Zhuang Momo felt jealous for no reason. Even the maid was prettier than herself. She asked Xiao Hua what was going on, and Xiao Hua told her the story.

Xiao Hua said that Long Mansion was the largest mansion in the current dynasty, and the second young master of the Long family was also named the Grand General of the current dynasty. The Long family had three brothers. Because Zhuang Momo's parents had killed the eldest son of the Long family, Long Zhengping, both of Zhuang Momo's parents were executed to atone for Long Zhengping's death. However, that wasn't all. Zhuang Momo also had to come to the Long family and hold a ghost wedding with Long Zhengping, which meant that Zhuang Momo had to marry a ghost husband.

Zhuang Momo didn't want to do it at all, but it was already too late. The servants had already shouted that the auspicious time had arrived, and the ghost wedding was about to begin. The servants dragged Zhuang Momo to the funeral hall, and amidst her crying and shouting, they forcibly pushed her into the coffin. As night fell, lightning flashed, thunder roared, and the wind pounded the mourning cloth. The funeral hall was filled with a terrifying atmosphere. The extremely frightened Zhuang Momo shouted inside, saying that this was a violation of human rights. Perhaps hearing her miserable screams, a figure walked by outside the window.

Episode 3 Recap

That person helped Zhuang Momo move the lid of the coffin and breathe in fresh air, and she regained her youthful vitality, restoring her playful appearance. The one who saved her was Long Yixiao, the third young master of the Long family. He was very close to Zhuang Momo, but when he saw the extremely ugly scar on her face, he was very disgusted. This bride was indeed the legendary Fierce Bride. However, Long Yixiao was still very satisfied with Zhuang Momo's figure, thinking that she had a good body.

He wanted to tease Zhuang Momo, but she followed suit and deliberately acted very coquettishly, using her fingers to stimulate and poke his chest. This action directly scared the third young master of the Long family, but Zhuang Momo did not let him leave so easily. She grabbed his clothes and accidentally tore off Long Yixiao's clothes, revealing his smooth and strong upper body. Zhuang Momo blushed and swallowed her saliva.

Long Yixiao was really scared this time. It seemed that this Fierce Bride was not easy to deal with. He fled in panic, while Zhuang Momo lay satisfied in the coffin and continued to sleep. Long Yixiao met his second brother, Long Qianchen, who was still reading under the moonlight, dressed in a white shirt and looking elegant. When Long Qianchen saw Long Yixiao, he sarcastically said that his third brother was in a good mood and even the ghost wife of the eldest brother couldn't be spared. Long Yixiao naturally did not back down and retorted with a few words.

Episode 4 Recap

Early in the morning, Zhuang Momo was brought to the hall by a servant. A middle-aged woman sat majestically in the hall, and she sternly scolded Zhuang Momo, saying that she married into the Long family to atone for her sins, but it was rumored that on the wedding night, there were sounds of laughter and teasing with a man in her room, which was a disgrace to the family's reputation. Zhuang Momo glanced at Long Yixiao, who was sitting next to her, and saw him sitting upright and looking serious. Zhuang Momo found it amusing and knew that the woman sitting in the hall was probably the Long family's hostess.

Zhuang Momo was not frightened by the hostess's words. She mischievously remarked that the hostess looked young, probably under fifty years old, yet she had heavy dark circles. Zhuang Momo offered to make a special mask for her to help relieve her condition. The hostess hurriedly asked her servant to check her eyes and asked if it was really that bad. Realizing that Zhuang Momo was teasing her, the hostess became angry and ordered her to be taken to the woodshed to teach her a lesson.

The hostess and her maidservants listened outside the woodshed and heard Zhuang Momo crying and screaming inside. The hostess was satisfied, saying that was the consequence of offending her. In fact, inside the woodshed, Zhuang Momo was playing cards with two servants. While playing, she reminded the servants to use a whip to beat the table legs and also loudly screamed along with them. A masked man stood outside the Long residence, and his henchmen reported to him that they had already infiltrated the Long family.

Episode 5 Recap

After leaving the woodshed, Zhuang Momo carefully stashed the winnings in her purse. When she encountered Long Yixiao, he grabbed her and squeezed her face, demanding to know who she was and why she had come to his home. Zhuang Momo was extremely aggrieved and didn't want to be there either. Long Yixiao said that his older brother was kind and steady, but was killed by Zhuang Momo's parents, and he hated her for it. Zhuang Momo raised her hands and said that her parents had already paid the price for Long Zhengping's life, and Long Yixiao couldn't kill her too.

Long Yixiao didn't really know what to do with Zhuang Momo, so she suggested they have a meal and talk. Long Yixiao invited Zhuang Momo to dinner and drinks. Zhuang Momo was thrilled to see the roasted chicken and began to gnaw on the chicken legs. Long Yixiao, a rich young man, was very disgusted with her eating habits. Zhuang Momo didn't care and even offered him some chicken legs, but Long Yixiao pushed them away.

Seeing that Long Yixiao wasn't in high spirits, Zhuang Momo suggested he drink some wine. She said there was nothing that a good meal and a good drink couldn't solve. Long Yixiao grabbed a glass and was about to drink it, but Zhuang Momo stopped him and suggested they play dice. Whoever lost would have to drink. Long Yixiao lost every round and drank one glass after another, eventually becoming drunk and falling asleep.

Episode 6 Recap

After getting Long Yixiao drunk, Zhuang Momo felt satisfied and went to bed herself. Xiao Hua came in and woke her up, reminding her not to forget their purpose for being there. Zhuang Momo's parents were both doctors and had been treating the illness of the young master of the Long family, Long Zhengping, so it was impossible for them to harm him. There must be some hidden situation going on. Zhuang Momo went into the Long family to investigate and clear her parents' name. Reminded by Xiao Hua's words, Zhuang Momo rallied her spirits and prepared to take action.

At night, Zhuang Momo dressed up and sneaked into the room of the young master Long Zhengping. To showcase the skills of the female lead, Zhuang Momo had specially created a background for her - a graduate of the Huashan School, with 18 levels of lightness kung fu and 10 levels of martial arts. She found nothing unusual in the room and was about to leave when she was discovered by the second young master, Long Qianchen.

The two fought, and Long Qianchen felt that the person was familiar, but he didn't know who she was. As a general of the current dynasty, Long Qianchen's martial arts skills were not to be underestimated. Zhuang Momo, who only had superficial kung fu skills, didn't dare to linger in the fight. After a few moves, she used a diversionary tactic and quickly left. Long Qianchen began to ponder whether there was another force involved in this case that he didn't know about.

Episode 7 Recap

In the morning, Long Yixiao brought up the incident of someone sneaking into their eldest brother's room last night and asked his second brother, Long Qianchen, what he thought about it. He wondered whether the thief was trying to steal something or had other motives. Long Qianchen calmly replied that where there was an unsolved mystery, there must be an injustice. When Long Yixiao asked him if he thought the Zhuang family was being wrongly accused, Long Qianchen did not answer.

Their cousin Miss Liu wanted to go to the Peony Festival and pestered her two older cousins to go with her. But Long Qianchen was too engrossed in his book to pay attention to her, which made her feel embarrassed. Long Yixiao saw this and said that his second brother was not an ordinary person and did not bother with such mundane things, and that he would take Miss Liu there himself. Miss Liu was very happy to hear this.

At this moment, Zhuang Momo came over with tea. Miss Liu disdainfully commented on how could the Long Mansion have such an ugly servant, but Zhuang Momo corrected her calmly, stating that she was not a servant. Miss Liu arrogantly replied that although she was not a servant, she was still doing the work of a servant. Zhuang Momo ignored her provocation and prepared to leave. However, Miss Liu showed off her knowledge by reciting some poetry, trying to mock Zhuang Momo for being too ugly. Zhuang Momo corrected her again, saying that the lines she recited were not from "Chou Nu Yao" but from "Yu Hu Yin."

Long Qianchen was slightly surprised after hearing this. Indeed, Zhuang Momo was not an ordinary person. However, Miss Liu was embarrassed by this correction and claimed that she, as the daughter of the current prime minister, was insulted by Zhuang Momo and demanded that Long Yixiao punish her by forbidding her from eating.

Episode 8 Recap

Zhuang Momo was punished and not allowed to eat, so hungry that she felt like her back was glued to her front. She went to the kitchen to find something to eat, and just as she found a roast chicken, she was scared off by a fierce bride. The person behind her laughed triumphantly, and when Zhuang Momo looked back, she realized it was Long Yixiao. Zhuang Momo scolded him for having no sympathy, but Long Yixiao saw that she wasn't speaking nicely and was even insulting him, so he stood at the door of the kitchen and refused to let her in to eat.

Zhuang Momo was wandering aimlessly in the courtyard when she suddenly ran into Long Qianchen. Long Qianchen wielded his Longquan sword in a way that was impenetrable. Zhuang Momo hid in the shadows and watched in awe. Long Qianchen stopped his sword technique and asked Zhuang Momo to come out of hiding, even though he had already noticed her. Zhuang Momo praised Long Qianchen's swordsmanship, and he casually threw a roasted cake to her. Zhuang Momo was delighted to catch the cake and quickly ate it.

Seeing how deliciously Zhuang Momo was eating, Long Qianchen sat next to her. Zhuang Momo asked if there was something on Long Qianchen's mind, why he always looked unhappy. Long Qianchen sighed and said that he, like Zhuang Momo, didn't belong here. Zhuang Momo asked why, and Long Qianchen said he was an adopted son of the Long family. Zhuang Momo said that was still impressive, and that Long Qianchen was a general of the current dynasty, and a source of pride for the Long family. Watching Long Qianchen's charming back, Zhuang Momo daydreamed about being in a romantic relationship with him.

Episode 9 Recap

Xiao Hua came in to bring water for Zhuang Momo and found her applying a face mask. Xiao Hua was so startled that she dropped the water basin she was holding. Zhuang Momo washed off the face mask, and Xiao Hua noticed that the scar on her face had faded significantly. Zhuang Momo proudly suggested that she should open a traditional Chinese medicine face mask shop, which would surely be popular. Xiao Hua reminded her not to forget about the matter at hand: she needed to plead with Lady Xuanguo to reinvestigate her parents' case at the Dragon Boat Festival. Zhuang Momo felt troubled, but once the truth was revealed, she could leave this place.

At night, Zhuang Momo sneaked into Long Zhengping's room again and carefully searched for clues. This time, she found a Go board in the room. After studying it for a while and placing some stones in the empty spaces, she suddenly realized something. As she was looking for other things, someone suddenly came in, and Zhuang Momo quickly hid under the bed. The masked person walked around the room with a folding fan and then went into the courtyard.

The masked person came to the Dragon Mansion and was discovered by Long Yixiao, the third young master of the Dragon family. They fought, and the masked person took advantage of Long Yixiao's carelessness and threw poison at him before disappearing without a trace. Long Yixiao's subordinates reported their investigation of Zhuang Momo, stating that when she was thirteen years old, she accidentally fell off a cliff, which caused the scar on her face, but nothing else unusual was found.

Episode 10 Recap

Zhuang Momo was treating Long Yixiao's injuries carefully. After cleaning and disinfecting his wounds, she applied ointment and bandaged him up carefully. She told Long Yixiao that he had been poisoned by a highly toxic drug called the "Baidu Sanli Pill," and that if he did not receive treatment within an hour, he would die from the poison. Watching Zhuang Momo treating him with such care and attention, Long Yixiao felt very touched. He asked Zhuang Momo why she was helping him despite how he had mistreated her before. Zhuang Momo replied impatiently that it was her duty as a doctor to treat anyone who was sick, even a dog.

Long Yixiao felt a little unhappy after hearing this, but his arm was still immobilized. Zhuang Momo didn't care about his complaints, and urged him to leave after the treatment was done. But when she turned around, she saw Long Yixiao looking at her with deep affection. The two of them stared at each other for a long time, and a special kind of feeling arose in their hearts.

Long Yixiao began to act like a spoiled child, saying that he was a patient and demanding that Zhuang Momo take care of him for twenty-four hours straight. After saying this, he lay down on Zhuang Momo's bed and refused to leave. Zhuang Momo pretended to be very anxious and began to tease him. She jumped onto Long Yixiao's body and drew circles on his bare chest with her fingers, moving up to his neck, Adam's apple, and even his sexy lips. Long Yixiao was stirred up by her actions and felt flustered, so he quickly got up and left. In this way, Zhuang Momo scared Long Yixiao away.

Episode 11 Recap

After leaving Zhuang Momo's room, Long Yixiao couldn't help but smile. When his subordinates saw him, they asked why he was laughing, but he didn't even realize he was doing it. They asked if the Fierce Bride had enchanted him with some kind of spell, but Long Yixiao stopped them and asked them to investigate a poison called Bai Du San Li Wan.

Later, Long Yixiao took Zhuang Momo to the silk shop, where the owner came to greet them. Long Yixiao said he wanted to buy her a decent outfit so she wouldn't scare Lady Xuanguo at the upcoming Dragon Boat Festival. Zhuang Momo tried on many outfits, but Long Yixiao was never satisfied and even said that no matter what she wore, it was a waste because she was so ugly. This hurt Zhuang Momo's feelings, and she didn't want to try on anything else.

Finally, she randomly picked one outfit, but Long Yixiao thought it looked perfect and had the owner pack it up. The owner hesitated and said it was a custom-made outfit that cost 300 gold taels for Miss Liu. Long Yixiao offered 1,000 gold taels, and the owner happily agreed.

Two women came over and greeted Long Yixiao warmly, but they mocked Zhuang Momo for being so ugly and daring to accompany the young master. Long Yixiao hugged her and declared that she was his wife, warning the women not to bully her or they would face his wrath. The women left, and Zhuang Momo was touched by how protective Long Yixiao was of her.

Episode 12 Recap

Long Yixiao confidently told Zhuang Momo that he would take care of everything for her in the future. Although Zhuang Momo was happy, she still scoffed at his words. After arguing on their way back, two masked men suddenly appeared and targeted Zhuang Momo. Long Yixiao quickly protected her and prepared to fight. Zhuang Momo felt safe hiding behind him.

The attackers demanded that Long Yixiao stay out of it and hand over Zhuang Momo, but he was determined to rescue her. Unfortunately, he was knocked unconscious by a palm strike. Zhuang Momo had to use her own skills to easily defeat the two attackers. She left Long Yixiao behind in order to take the attackers back for questioning, and before leaving, she couldn't help but say to the unconscious Long Yixiao, "I wonder who saved whom."

Zhuang Momo brought back two people for questioning, one of them said they were from Shandong, surnamed Li, all of them were Liu... Just as they got to this point, the person suddenly tilted their head and died, and the person next to them also did the same. Zhuang Momo looked outside and saw a figure flash by, so she hurried out to check, but only saw a masked person leaving quickly. After Long Yixiao woke up, he came back and relentlessly criticized Zhuang Momo, saying that she had no conscience. He saved her, but she left him behind. Zhuang Momo didn't know how to explain to him.

Episode 13 Recap

The Dragon Boat Festival flower fair has begun, and the capital is full of blooming flowers, with everywhere competing for beauty. Handsome young men and beautiful young women wander around, creating a lively scene of singing and dancing. Lady Xuanguo sat dignified in the flower hall with Lady Long, chatting about old times. She addressed Lady Long as her cousin and expressed her joy at seeing her relatives in the palace. Lady Long respectfully replied that Lady Xuanguo was the current emperor's most trusted wet nurse. The Long Family was honored to have her attend the Dragon Boat Festival flower fair.

When Lady Xuanguo saw Long Yixiao accompanying them, she praised him for growing more handsome as he got older. She inquired about Long Qianchen, and the Lady Long replied that he was unwell and would be coming later. Lady Xuanguo sighed and said that she wondered who could warm Long Qianchen's heart. She asked Prime Minister Liu, who was present, where Miss Liu Jingchen was. He stood up and replied that she was preparing for the flower fair competition and was going to dance for Lady Xuanguo.

As the host sang, the young ladies of the Liu family performed on stage. Miss Liu Jingchen stepped onto the stage, dressed in elegant attire, and performed a graceful and charming dance that showcased her style and grace. After the dance, Lady Xuanguo applauded and praised Miss Liu, saying that she was beautiful and skilled, and was undoubtedly the winner of the flower fair competition. Miss Liu felt secretly pleased and thanked Lady Xuanguo before sitting down. At this time, the host announced that Zhuang Momo, the Long Family's newlywed, was going to perform on stage.

Episode 14 Recap

It's Zhuang Momo's turn to perform on stage. Her appearance is unusual as she covers her face with a veil and wears a short-sleeved shirt. Instead of sticking to traditional dance moves, she performs a modern and energetic dance that impresses the audience. After the performance, she approaches Lady Xuanguo, who praises her for her unique dance style, which is a refreshing change from traditional court dances.

Lady Xuanguo comforts Zhuang Momo and admires her courage for willingly becoming a ghost bride to atone for her parents' crimes. However, Zhuang Momo reveals that there is more to her parents' case and begs Lady Xuanguo to investigate further. Everyone is shocked by this revelation. Suddenly, Liu Jingchen steps forward and removes Zhuang Momo's veil, revealing a scar on her face that startles Lady Xuanguo.

Liu Jingchen accuses Zhuang Momo of impersonating a beautiful woman and disturbing Lady Xuanguo. She pushes Zhuang Momo to the ground and insults her, but Zhuang Momo retaliates by slapping her in the face. As she is about to continue fighting, Long Yixiao intervenes and stops her, disappointing Zhuang Momo. Long Yixiao protects Liu Jingchen, and she orders her men to arrest Zhuang Momo.

Episode 15 Recap

Liu Jingchen ordered her subordinates to capture Zhuang Momo. Just then, Long Qianchen suddenly appeared and stopped them from hurting Zhuang Momo. He then took her away from the scene. Long Qianchen brought Zhuang Momo to his residence and personally served her tea to calm her nerves. Thinking back to what had happened, Zhuang Momo was deeply hurt that Long Yixiao had helped Liu Jingchen. She wiped away her tears and thanked Long Qianchen for saving her. She then said her goodbyes.

Long Qianchen said that being strong is a good quality, but there's no need to be tough all the time. After hearing this, Zhuang Momo couldn't hold back her grievances anymore and burst into tears in Long Qianchen's arms. Long Yixiao sent people to search for Zhuang Momo but to no avail. He was worried and his subordinates couldn't understand why he would believe that the Zhuang family was falsely accused.

Long Yixiao didn't know how to explain his feelings to his subordinates. Miss Liu came over and said that since Zhuang Momo had come to the Long family, she should be prepared to endure humiliation. She said they should treat her accordingly. Long Yixiao suddenly turned on Liu Jingchen, scolded her, and even told her to look at herself in the mirror. After he finished, he angrily left, leaving Liu Jingchen fuming. Zhuang Momo fell asleep under Long Qianchen's comforting and he carefully covered her with a blanket. The subordinate of the masked person reported to him that the ledger had yet to be obtained and the masked person said he would have to take matters into his own hands.

Episode 16 Recap

Early the next morning, Lady Long summoned Zhuang Momo and questioned her where she had gone all night without reporting. Zhuang Momo admitted that she had forgotten to report and apologized for being impolite. However, Liu Jingchen was instigating things, saying that Zhuang Momo clearly did not obey the rules since she didn't return home all night. Zhuang Momo defended herself, saying that she had married into the Long family but that did not mean she was not allowed to go out. Lady Long was extremely angry and felt betrayed after taking pity on Zhuang Momo, and scolded her severely. She even physically assaulted her, causing Zhuang Momo to bleed from her mouth. Even then, Lady Long refused to stop, and it was only when Long Yixiao intervened and took Zhuang Momo away that the beating ended.

Long Yixiao took Zhuang Momo to his room, where she woke up and refused to accept his concern. Just then, Long Qianchen arrived and showed great concern for Zhuang Momo. He invited her to his room, saying that he had some Jin Chuang San, but Long Yixiao disagreed and said he had some too. Zhuang Momo did not want to see the two brothers quarrel over her and tried to leave to go back to her room. However, Long Yixiao insisted that she stay with him and he would make medicine for her.

Episode 17 Recap

Long Yixiao arrived in the garden where Long Qianchen was already present. It seemed like Long Qianchen was waiting for him, but Long Yixiao didn't feel like he had anything to say to him, so he turned to leave. Long Qianchen called out to him, warning him to stay away from Zhuang Momo. He knew that Long Yixiao was approaching Zhuang Momo to investigate their elder brother's cause of death, but if he didn't love Zhuang Momo, he shouldn't get too close to her to avoid falling into deep trouble.

Long Yixiao retorted and said that when did his second brother start to care about family matters. He could tell that Long Qianchen was already deeply involved in it. Long Qianchen was caught off guard by his response and had nothing to say in return. Long Yixiao then left in a huff, leaving Long Qianchen standing there in a daze.

Long Yixiao returned to his room and saw that Zhuang Momo had already woken up, but she was in great pain and looked very uncomfortable. He quickly approached her and asked about her condition. Zhuang Momo was sweating profusely from the pain and told Long Yixiao that Lady Long had lashed her with a whip that had poison on it.

Zhuang Momo asked Long Yixiao to check her wound and see what color it was. After examining it, Long Yixiao found that the wound was green. Zhuang Momo weakly asked him to go find some fresh Jin Chuang San to apply on her wound. Long Yixiao immediately ran out into the wilderness, braving the rain at night, while muttering under his breath that Xiao Yecha must not die. He searched through the grass and finally found some fresh Jin Chuang San. He hurried back to help Zhuang Momo treat her wounds.

Episode 18 Recap

Finally, Zhuang Momo woke up and saw that Long Yixiao had been guarding her all the time. When Long Yixiao saw Zhuang Momo wake up, he finally felt relieved, but then he fainted. Zhuang Momo saw that his old wound had relapsed and said with distress, "I wonder how long this fool stayed in the rain yesterday." At this time, Long Yixiao's subordinates came to visit him. Zhuang Momo told them that Long Yixiao's wound had become infected due to the rain, but there was nothing else to worry about.

The subordinates cried and begged Zhuang Momo to be good to the Third Young Master. He had been running to the mountain every day to help Zhuang Momo heal, even in the rain without an umbrella, and then would come back to make medicine for her. Zhuang Momo was deeply moved after hearing this. After the subordinates left, she gently stroked Long Yixiao's face. However, Long Yixiao, who had already woken up, suddenly hugged her tightly, and Zhuang Momo struggled to get away from him. Long Yixiao asked if she was worried about him.

Zhuang Momo struggled to get up and stop Long Yixiao's embrace, saying that her requirements were very high. Long Yixiao asked what her conditions were, and Zhuang Momo closed her eyes and said that the person must be handsome, from a good family, and have a car and a house. Long Yixiao turned over and pressed Zhuang Momo under him, asking her if he met her requirements. After saying that, he kissed her, and Zhuang Momo happily accepted Long Yixiao's kiss. At this moment, the masked person outside the door was sitting outside, feeling extremely lost.

Episode 19 Recap

Long Yixiao took Zhuang Momo to the outskirts for a trip. He carefully examined Zhuang Momo's face and made her feel embarrassed. Zhuang Momo said that she was not pretty, but Long Yixiao said that her face had already taken root in his heart and he dreamt about her every night. Long Yixiao told Zhuang Momo to give him some time, and he would make her the true lady of the Long family.

However, Zhuang Momo was worried about the relationship between the Zhuang and Long families, but Long Yixiao believed in her and her parents, who he thought were wrongly accused. Long Yixiao gave Zhuang Momo his personal jade pendant and told her that seeing the jade was the same as seeing him in person.

Zhuang Momo was amazed by the beauty of the jade pendant and asked how much it was worth. Long Yixiao was not pleased that she was concerned about its value and, when Zhuang Momo accidentally broke it in half, he said that they would each keep a half as proof of their meeting. They ran around, but when Zhuang Momo sprained her ankle, Long Yixiao lifted her and found that she was heavier than expected due to eating too much for lunch.

Miss Liu and Lady Long were angry when they saw Long Yixiao carrying Zhuang Momo and accused her of being improper, but Long Yixiao stopped them and announced publicly that he would marry Zhuang Momo.

Episode 20 Recap

After hearing that Long Yixiao was going to marry Zhuang Momo, Miss Liu went home crying. Prime Minister Liu was very heartbroken for his daughter and was furious when he found out the reason for her tears. Miss Liu's engagement with the third young master of the Long family was arranged by the emperor himself, and he would go to see the emperor tomorrow to request that he announce the marriage. Miss Liu gritted her teeth and vowed to let that ugly girl have no place to die.

Prime Minister Liu met with the masked person, who arrived late. He asked if they had found the account book, but the masked person said that they had not, although they had discovered its whereabouts. Prime Minister Liu hated the Long family but wanted Long Yixiao to be his son-in-law. He was willing to even sell out his own daughter. Prime Minister Liu told the masked person to stop talking nonsense and find the account book as soon as possible because it was essential to him.

Xiao Hua told Zhuang Momo that the account book contained records of the medicine the queen had taken for the past three years. Inside, there was Tian Hua Fen, which could cause infertility. Zhuang Momo realized that this was probably the reason why the queen had no children for so many years, and why Long Zhengping had been silenced and blamed for the crime. When others criticized her, Zhuang Momo chased away Xiao Hua, but she could not let go of her troubles. She confided in Long Qianchen and they drank together, drowning her sorrows.

Episode 21 Recap

After Lady Xuanguo mediated, Lady Long called off the engagement between Zhuang Momo and Long Zhengping, and agreed to let Zhuang Momo marry Long Yixiao. Zhuang Momo wore a red wedding gown with a veil on her head and sat alone in the bridal chamber. However, for some reason, she felt uneasy. Long Yixiao, dressed in his groom's outfit, stumbled into the room with a wine bottle in his hand. He approached the bride, slightly drunk, and said that despite knowing how ugly Fierce Bride was, he still liked her very much and actually married her in the end. What kind of magic did Zhuang Momo possess?

He walked up to unveil the bride's veil, only to discover that the bride was actually Liu Jingchen. Long Yixiao was shocked, but Liu Jingchen explained that her marriage to him was appointed by the emperor, and no one could change it. Long Yixiao firmly stated that he would not marry Liu Jingchen. Liu Jingchen then produced a stack of letters, telling him that they were all correspondences between the Zhuang family and the rebellious group, the Huoying Society. Long Zhengping was silenced by the Zhuang family after discovering their secret. The emperor is now investigating this matter thoroughly.

Zhuang Momo's purpose in coming to the Long family this time was to destroy this evidence. Long Yixiao was skeptical about what he heard. Meanwhile, in another room, Zhuang Momo was anxiously waiting for the groom. When she realized that Long Yixiao was not coming, she knew she had been set up.

Episode 22 Recap

Zhuang Momo waited in the new room but Long Yixiao did not come. She made up her mind that if he was playing with her, she wouldn't spare him. At that moment, someone outside the window was putting poison inside. By the time Zhuang Momo noticed it, it was too late, and she fainted on the ground.

When Zhuang Momo woke up, she found herself tied up and locked in jail. The jailer announced her crime, accusing her of being a member of the Huoying Society and deserving to be executed. Zhuang Momo angrily said that they had framed her just like how they had killed her parents. The man arrogantly replied that even if that was true, what could she do about it? Could she go and fight him? Zhuang Momo looked at his ugly face and spat on it. The man slapped her a few times and left in a hurry.

Liu Jingchen came to the jail and proudly told Zhuang Momo that she had already married Long Yixiao, and came to visit her on their honeymoon. Zhuang Momo cursed her and warned her to be careful of getting mouth sores from her wicked words. Liu Jingchen continued to provoke Zhuang Momo, saying that all of this was arranged by Long Yixiao. He had known all along why Zhuang Momo came to the Long family, but had just played along. Liu Jingchen arrogantly said that social status had already been determined and how could Long Yixiao marry such a cheap woman like her. Zhuang Momo said she had a secret to tell Liu Jingchen, and she leaned in. Zhuang Momo suddenly bit her ear, causing Liu Jingchen to scream in pain, and then she hurriedly left.

Episode 23 Recap

One of the subordinates approached and informed Long Yixiao that Zhuang Momo had been captured. Long Yixiao was shocked to hear this news. At the execution site, a chilly wind blew and the executioners, with their fierce and intimidating looks, stood on the side. The deaf and dumb executioner announced that Zhuang Momo had intended to rebel and must be executed immediately. Zhuang Momo, who was covered in bruises, knelt on the execution ground and thought of the happy moments she had spent with Long Yixiao. Her half of the jade pendant fell to the ground. At the same time, Long Yixiao was also in agony. He held the other half of the jade pendant in his hand, contemplating for a long time. In the end, he made up his mind and rushed towards the execution ground. He wanted Zhuang Momo to explain everything to him in person.

A masked man had been wandering around not far from the execution ground for a long time. Eventually, he threw down his mask and rushed towards the execution ground. As the executioner announced the sentence, the executioner raised a large cleaver towards Zhuang Momo. She had no attachments left and could only wait helplessly for the executioner to strike. Suddenly, a strong gust of wind swept in, and the executioner shouted that someone was rescuing Zhuang Momo. After a flurry of sword and knife lights, Zhuang Momo was saved.

Long Yixiao arrived at the execution ground, but found that it was already empty. He found the other half of the jade pendant on the ground and held it tightly in his hand, his face filled with pain. When Zhuang Momo woke up, she found herself lying in bed, with a young man in white standing by the window. He turned around and smiled at her, and it turned out to be Long Qianchen.

Zhuang Momo sat up and moved to the edge of the bed when she saw Long Qianchen. He handed her a cup of tea, and she asked him why he saved her.

Long Qianchen quickly turned around and Zhuang Momo clung to him, tears streaming down her face. He gently hugged her and comforted her.

After a long time, Long Qianchen advised her to rest well and promised to send her out of the city on another day.
