Apr 12, 2023

In the Zhenfu Division, Lu Yulin gave Li Wu the key to the file library of the Zhenfu Division's yamen, and ordered Hong Wunian's cases to go through Li Wu. Li Wu cherished the key and held it in his hand. At night, the neighbors in Ji'e Lane were enjoying delicious food in restaurants. After getting drunk, Li Wu handed Pei Cuimeiyu to the little boy Mei Douhou, and put down a bag of silver taels in front of every door in Ji'e Lane. Thank you. I have taken care of you for so many years. Lu Zheng, who followed secretly, whispered Li Wu's name, watching him smash everything in his previous residence.

It was night again, and Li Wu asked Mei Dou to put the white paper in the river lantern in advance and go down the river. Li Wu ate the white paper in the river lantern, pretending to be Li Dongfang's order. Li Wu lied to Shu Tang, and Li Dongfang had seen Shu Tang go to the post with him, and expressed his willingness to teach Shu Tang how to become a wife of a hundred households. Seeing Shu Tang wiping the knife, Li Wu quickly denied that there was no need for Shu Tang to greet and serve him with a smile.

In the mansion, Shu Tang slowly told about Li Dongfang's previous experience in handling cases, so that Li Wu must remember that Li Wu said that he had to sum up Li Dongfang's character and truly become Li Dongfang from the inside out. Li Wu looked at Shu Tang's heroic sitting posture, and put some silver in her shoes. Shu Tang put on his shoes and refused to practice after walking a few steps. Seeing this, Li Wu threatened Shu Tang with Li Dongfang. Shu Tang saw Li Wu virtuously mending clothes, so he had to continue to practice walking.

Li Wu analyzed that Li Dongfang's characteristics are incorruptibility and internal fear, and also hinted at Shu Tang. Shu Tang couldn't help asking what Li Wu meant. Li Wu said that the two were pretending to be husband and wife, but they lived a real life, and suggested that they should be responsible on a single or double day. At night, Shu Tang really wiped the floor in the room. Seeing Li Wu sleeping on the desk, Shu Tang angrily knocked down his shoes and found silver in them, so he made a plan.

In the morning, Li Wu walked out of the room and found that Shu Tang was drying clothes on a rainy day, so he hurriedly stopped Shu Tang. Looking at the dishes on the table, Li Wu inquired and learned that Shu Tang had given a tael to the two old mothers who were cooking. Remembering that Shu Tang once said that he had no money, he realized that Shu Tang had taken the taels from his shoes and was very angry. .

The two came to the river, and the fallen flowers on the trees kept floating down. Seeing Lu Zheng coming by boat, Shu Tang leaned on Li Wu's shoulder. Before the person arrived, Shu Tang reminded Li Wu again to remember Li Dongfang's experience, the confrontation between the forces of the Zhenfu Division and the secret signal of not accepting at night. On the boat, Lu Zheng tentatively called out Li Wu's name, but Li Wu pretended not to know, secretly already holding the key at his waist tightly.

As soon as Li Wu entered the Zhenfu Division, some guards in Jinyi couldn't help asking Li Wu about the cases he had handled before. Li Wu answered while staring closely at the other guards in Jinyi. After being reminded by his subordinates, he learned that every month Jinyiwei had to report to Si Xiangnan, the chief minister. Si Xiangnan brought Li Wu to the school grounds, and watched Mr. Ji being beaten by Jin Yiwei. Li Wu remembered that Mr. Ji was the one who inquired about the case of the nine-headed corpse at the door. Si Xiangnan warned Li Wu to be cautious in his words and deeds in the future, saying that the rebellion against the party is a rare opportunity, and he wanted Li Wu to join the job early and cooperate with Lu Zheng to handle the case.

Afterwards, Li Wu came to Lu Yulin's place. Lu Yulin asked Li Wu to work with Lu Zheng in order to monitor Lu Zheng and tell him about Lu Zheng's whereabouts, saying that as long as Li Wu agreed to him, Li Wu would always be Li Dongfang to him. Li Wu was shocked when Lu Yulin saw his identity, so he had to agree.

In the imperial prison, Li Wu looked at the open door and recalled the past when he escaped from the imperial prison. After Song Heming locked the gate of the imperial prison with iron chains, he was killed by a hidden arrow, and the murderer twisted his arm and snatched the impermanence book. Lu Zheng came over and asked Li Wu to go into the file library to inquire about a person named Li Wu. The two walked to the file library and watched Jin Yiwei pass by with the file. Shu Tang let go of the past. The person guarding the document library told Lu Zheng that there was no file for Li Wu in Hong Wunian, and Li Wu was relieved. Although Lu Zheng didn't believe it, he could only leave. After the two left the document library, Li Wu wanted to high-five with Lu Zheng and promise not to be suspicious of each other, but Lu Zheng took advantage of this to knock Li Wu unconscious.
