Episode 6 recap: Chen Shi stayed at the Dali Temple.
When Lord Shaoqing returned to the room, she began to have a headache due to the preparations to meet the emperor. At the same time, she started considering the candidates for the other side of the interview. After successfully meeting the emperor, Li Bing immediately kowtowed and admitted his guilt on the spot. He hesitated not to reveal the entire process of the case, but the person in front of him still blamed him for not returning the seal. The atmosphere suddenly changed, and Li Bing knew that the person in front of him wouldn't actually blame him. This time, the person who knelt down in front of him continued to be humble. The emperor was prepared to let him continue the investigation, starting from the Lord Shangshu, and reevaluating the new and old seals. For now, he was temporarily appointed to continue his position as the Deputy Minister of the Dali Temple, leading the others to continue their brilliant work.
After everyone else left, Chen Shi remained alone, quietly waiting for his good friend to arrive. When he saw the other person walk out unscathed, he was very happy. He carefully handed over the other person's belongings in a small bottle and explained them in detail. He was ready to continue searching for his brother. However, when he saw that the other person wasn't in a hurry to search for his own relatives, Li Bing decided to ask the other person to help him with authentication before finding his brother. This time, he publicly declared that he wouldn't imprison the person, and the other person quickly agreed to accompany him.
Unexpectedly, the Lord Shangshu, who was locked in the prison, received no response. When the people in the dungeon prepared to bring him food, they found that something was wrong with the lock. It wasn't until they saw him lying motionless on the table that they realized he had died, which startled them. Li Bing later received an imperial edict and took control of the entire Dali Temple. Unexpectedly, General Qiu, who harbored ill intentions, arrived at the scene and intended to confront Li Bing. Seeing this, Li Bing immediately ordered the other people in the Dali Temple to rest and unreservedly confronted General Qiu in front of him, not allowing any of his excuses. Unexpectedly, General Qiu, still assuming his fearless identity, intended to intervene in the situation involving the demon cat. Before leaving, he also mentioned the situation where the Lord Shangshu had poisoned himself to death in the prison, leaving the person in front of him stunned.
To everyone's surprise, Li Bing transformed into the form of a cat and continued eavesdropping on General Qiu's rooftop at night. When he was noticed by General Qiu, the general threw something at him from below. The large cat then ran along the wall and suddenly encountered Chen Shi, who was carrying luggage halfway. Li Bing, who was on the rooftop disguised as a pear cake, revealed his true identity, stretching and astonishing the person below. Without hesitation, he climbed up the ladder to have a conversation with Chen Shi.
After returning to the Dali Temple, the group of people resumed their serious dinner. Having observed the new Deputy Minister's character during the day, they found him difficult to get along with. The person who had spent the most time with them continued to share stories about the eccentric nature of the new Deputy Minister. Sitting above, Li Bing opened up to the person in front of him, unabashedly recounting the entire scene of his father's tragic death. He even described the ambush by an unknown person that he encountered while escorting his father, thinking it was the end for him. However, he woke up to find himself transformed into a strange, half-human, half-cat form.
Chen Shi, who was listening to these experiences, felt great sympathy for Li Bing. He continued to comfort him, and in this situation, Li Bing urged him to stay at the Dali Temple to help investigate the case and find his family. The two of them happily returned together.
