Episode 19 recap: Li Yu Hu's Identity Almost Exposed by Ke Shi Zhao

Princess Chang Ping was preparing to leave, and she handed a pair of pearls to Sha Ping Wei, which was actually an expression of her feelings. Sha Ping Wei held Princess Chang Ping's hand and asked her to wait for him to return. Princess Chang Ping then boarded the carriage and left, while Liu Ruo Qian and Zhong Dang Niang were about to go back to help Li Yu Hu and Qi Tian Lei.

After examining Zhong Dang Niang's condition, Liu Ruo Qian discovered that she had been poisoned with a substance that was incompatible with her body, showing that Ke Shi Zhao was truly ruthless. Everyone was now waiting for the truth to be revealed. Li Yu Hu deliberately administered Ke Shi Zhao's so-called ancestral secret formula to two white mice, and they immediately died, confirming that the medicine Ke Shi Zhao gave to Qi Tian Lei was indeed poisonous. Qi Tian Lei shed tears, and now they needed to find evidence to bring down Ke Shi Zhao in one fell swoop.

After Wang Hu Zi finished reporting to Ke Shi Zhao, Xiao Qiao happened to arrive. Ke Shi Zhao claimed that Li Yu Hu was not Du Bing Yan at all, and now they were waiting to witness a good show. Qi Tian Lei and Li Yu Hu went to Lao Tai Jun's room, and Lao Tai Jun asked Ya Huan and the others to leave first. Then, Qi Tian Lei began talking about his elder brother. He mentioned that his elder brother had gone to Ke Shi Zhao's house for treatment but ended up passing away.

Qi Tian Lei revealed that Ke Shi Zhao had been sending him medicine daily, but he refused to drink it and instead gave it to the white mice. Today, the mice died immediately after consuming the medicine. Qi Tian Lei knew that his condition was intentionally caused by Ke Shi Zhao. With his brothers' deaths and his sister suddenly becoming mute overnight, everything must have been manipulated by Ke Shi Zhao. Lao Tai Jun was astonished and reluctant to believe it. Qi Tian Lei then mentioned that Shi Tai, who was poisoned before, wanted to see her at that time.
After the blind old lady entered, she became extremely excited upon seeing Lao Tai Jun and proceeded to tell her everything. Lao Tai Jun called for Ke Shi Zhao, but to their surprise, Ke Shi Zhao claimed to have already found someone from Yangzhou. Li Yu Hu couldn't help but feel nervous, as she wasn't truly Du Bing Yan. However, Qi Tian Lei reassured her not to worry, as Xiao Xi was indeed genuine.

Ke Shi Zhao met with Du Bing Yan's father and a young master, unaware that the young master was actually Du Bing Yan disguised as a man. Soon, Lao Tai Jun also arrived. At this point, Li Yu Hu and her group were still unaware that Du Bing Yan had already arrived, so they were contemplating strategies on how to prevent Lord Du from exposing their charade.

Meanwhile, Wang Hu Zi had already arranged his people, waiting for the fake Du Bing Yan to appear and capture them on the spot. Initially, Xiao Xi didn't recognize Du Bing Yan in her male disguise, but Du Bing Yan intentionally reminded her, which made Xiao Xi very happy. However, according to their initial plan, Li Yu Hu was currently pretending to be unconscious in her room. When Du Bing Yan and his group approached, Li Yu Hu still hadn't recognized him, and Du Bing Yan kept calling out to her. In addition, Lord Du kept referring to Li Yu Hu as his daughter, so the matter of Li Yu Hu being Du Bing Yan was considered resolved.

Ke Shi Zhao was extremely surprised by this turn of events. He had initially planned to wait and watch the drama unfold, but he never expected that Li Yu Hu was actually the real Du Bing Yan.

At first, Qi Tian Lei was also very shocked, as he knew Li Yu Hu's true identity. Li Yu Hu explained the cause and events to Qi Tian Lei, who then suddenly realized the truth. However, for now, Li Yu Hu still had to continue pretending to be Du Bing Yan.

Li Yu Hu deliberately asked Du Bing Yan why they had come, and Du Bing Yan mentioned that someone informed them that Li Yu Hu was ill here. In reality, all of this was a deliberate ploy directed towards Ke Shi Zhao. Ke Shi Zhao shifted all the blame onto Wang Hu Zi, but now Lao Tai Jun also had her suspicions about him.

Li Yu Hu and Du Bing Yan had a private meeting, where Li Yu Hu mentioned that she initially didn't understand anything when she arrived, but luckily Qi Tian Lei still loved her despite knowing her true identity. Du Bing Yan also spoke about her feelings for Yuan Bu Qu. Although they boarded the wrong wedding sedan, the current outcome still looked promising and beautiful.
