Recap Chinese Drama "Strange Tales of Tang Dynasty" Episode 23

Su Wuming, Pei Xijun and others persuaded Master Fei Ji to quit drinking, but Master Fei still complained that Su Wuming did not let him drink the Divine Spirit Wine. Su Wuming remembered that he didn't ask carefully in the daytime, and went to the Lin's Inn in person to ask the innkeeper some details. He learned that the shopkeeper was the Goddess of Tui who was looking through the curtain, and the shopkeeper also reminded Wuming Su not to doubt the God of Tuo at Ninghu Lake.

Shen Chong obtained a record of the Tuo Shrine, which was handed over to the shrine by Gu Wenbin, a long history, and said that it was presented by Lu Yong of the Chamber of Commerce, which recorded the crimes of Tuo Shrine. Shen Chong took the record to Tuoshen Island and reported the matter to Tuoshen, saying that this record should have been written by Li Sandpiper. Li Sandpiper also has a daughter. In case there is still a record of Tuo Shrine in his hand, if he takes it out of Ninghu, the consequences will be disastrous. This matter needs to be dealt with as soon as possible. Shen Chong also told Tuoshen that Su Wuming was disrespectful. Tuoshen knew that Su Wuming was extremely good at investigating cases, and asked Shen Chong and others to be cautious.

Rouge, the daughter of Li Sandpiper, was assassinated by the Tuo Shrine. Fortunately, He Xi showed up to take Rouge away. He Xi knew that the death of Li Zhishi was not unrelated to Tu Shrine, and wanted to know the cause of Li Zhishi's death through Rouge. But Cherry didn't believe in He Xi, so he didn't speak out.

Chang Shi hosted a banquet for Su Wuming, Su Wuming asked Tuo Shrine to represent the affairs of the state, but Chang Shi did not explain much, Su Wuming had to leave and come to guard Li Shishi. Rouge came to pay homage to his father Li Sandpiper, but was suddenly stunned by the shocked Li Sandpiper, and then Su Wuming came to watch the spirit, just to rescue Rouge. Su Wuming revealed his identity as Ninghu Sima, and said that he would urge the judiciary to join the army to solve the case as soon as possible. But Rouge knew that Ninghu officials were all related to Tuo Shrine, and did not believe it. As the two were talking, a member of Tuo Shrine came to assassinate her, and Rouge was quickly brought under control. The assassin asked Rouge to hand over the record of Tuo Shrine. Seeing that Rouge didn't cooperate, she wanted to insult her and surrender. Luckily, Lu Lingfeng came to the rescue and successfully left a hostage. Su Wuming wanted to use the hostage to inquire about the details, but Rouge knocked them out in a blink of an eye and killed the hostage.

The next day Su Wuming woke up and thanked Lu Lingfeng for saving his life. Lu Lingfeng did not say that he was chasing after Ninghu because he was worried about their safety, but only said that he came to visit them. Afterwards, Wuming Su inspected Li's body and found that the man practiced knife with his left hand and had a birthmark on his hand. Shen Chong was very angry when he learned that the operation had failed, and ordered someone to immediately go to the Chamber of Commerce to arrest Lu Yong.

Shen Chong tied Lu Yong to meet Governor Gu, saying that this person was the murderer who assassinated Governor Li, and Lu Yong himself admitted that he killed Li Sandpiper himself. He also questioned the record of the Tuo Shrine donated by Gu Changshi himself, thinking that Gu Changshi and Tuo Shrine were a group, but Gu Wenbin denied this. Later, He Xi came to investigate the matter, thinking that Lu Yong could not be the murderer, and according to his own investigation, Li Zhishi had joined the Tuo Shrine before his death.

Su Wuming came to the prison to interrogate Lu Yong, and confirmed from his mouth that the person who killed Inspector Li was the left-handed knifeman sent by Lu Yong to assassinate Inspector Li, not Inspector Li himself. Su Wuming told Lu Yong to show his determination to ask for death, because he could save his life. Su Wuming rushed to the villa with Lu Lingfeng. He thought that the deity of Li Shishi was still here. Rouge once said that when he saw his father that night, it was Li Shishi himself after all. The two came to the villa and pressed the dumb servant Li Si, but a giant crocodile attacked in a blink of an eye, and Lu Lingfeng was unable to fight the giant crocodile.

Master Fei bandaged Lu Lingfeng’s wound. Su Wuming said that Li Qishi asked the assassin to disguise himself because he knew that he was in great danger. He guessed that the record of Tuo Shrine was written by Li Sandpiper. Lu Lingfeng avoided Pei Xijun and did not want to live in the Sima Mansion. Su Wuming thought that this behavior was extremely cowardly, but Lu Lingfeng felt that he would be living in the arena in the future, and Pei Xijun should not follow him and suffer undeserved suffering. This remark was heard by Xijun outside the door. Pei Xijun learned that Lu Lingfeng was thinking about himself, and said that he would never be entangled in the future. It was difficult for Lu Lingfeng to leave, so he simply hugged Xi Jun and told everyone that he was sure that he would no longer escape.
