Episode 7 recap: Li Bing is handling internal matters.
Unexpectedly, after Chen Shi successfully returned to Dali Temple, he began to feel somewhat unsettled. Previously, when he was in the village, he was constantly busy and had no idle time. Now that he finally had some free time, he suddenly felt uncomfortable. He was about to continue putting down what he was holding and help tidy up the room when Li Bing, who was present, stopped him. Li Bing understood his discomfort and planned to take things slowly, instructing Chen Shi to listen to him before doing anything.
The next day, several people from Mingjing Hall, including Chen Shi, stayed up all night to welcome the arrival of the new assistant magistrate. They were tired but continued to greet him. Unexpectedly, Chen Shi came alone with steaming buns and distributed them to everyone on the scene. People were surprised when they saw that he didn't leave. After that, Li Bing arrived alone, dressed neatly. However, he was immediately overshadowed by Shangguan Qin, who had arrived later. At this time, Shangguan Qin mentioned the upcoming assessment and continued to remind everyone to be cautious. After Chen Shi left, Li Bing instructed the people from Mingjing Hall to report to him.
Once Li Bing entered, he immediately listened to the flattery from the people around him and didn't take their words seriously. He carefully observed their every move and even knew about their past actions. The people beside him admired his ability after hearing his meticulous observation and analysis. While they were discussing, Hu Si from Shangguan Qin's side suddenly ran over with some case files and started talking to the people around him about deductions. Everyone expressed their dissatisfaction upon hearing this. Hu Si continued to mention the cases they had failed to solve and said that they were now unable to mortgage them. Before leaving, he also mentioned the situation regarding Chen Shi to the people nearby, preparing to let him personally go and take a look. Upon hearing this, Li Bing continued to discuss the clear rewards and punishments and criticized the people beside him. He instructed them to continue handling even the smaller cases and to go back and sort things out.
After dealing with the situation here, Li Bing went out alone but almost stumbled. It turned out that it was because of the person he brought back who had nothing to do and directly polished every floor so shiny that even people passing by would slip. However, in this situation, Chen Shi did all the miscellaneous chores, not even sparing the bronze statue at the entrance. He polished it so brightly that when the people from Mingjing Hall went out, they slipped and fell on the ground. Li Bing continued to go out and inspect the bronze statue, starting to admire Chen Shi's abilities.
Unexpectedly, while the people from Mingjing Hall were discussing things, they suddenly heard the sound of drumming outside and scattered to check the situation and join in the excitement. Even when Shangguan Qin saw the person drumming to seek justice, he immediately recognized the identity of the little girl. It turned out that she had come several times to drum, but due to her congenital physical defect, she couldn't speak clearly. When Shangguan Qin saw this seemingly clueless case, he didn't pay much attention to it. However, for Li Bing, these matters were very important, and he took the initiative to inquire and was ready to go back and help the girl.
Afterward, Li Bing continued to collaborate with the people around him to take care of the little girl and find a place for her to settle. They quickly took her to find the people from Mingjing Hall, intending to have them vacate a room for her. After the house was repaired, Chen Shi even specially made pancakes for the girl. When Li Bing saw this and knew that he was going to investigate the matter, he reminded him to be careful.
