Episode 16 recap: Shen Huai Jin suddenly passed away.
On the eve of their wedding, Shen Huai Jin and Li Caiwei confided in each other, envisioning a future of traveling the world together and enjoying a beautiful life under the starry sky. The next morning, Lanxin carefully dressed up Li Caiwei. It was the joyful day of her wedding with Shen Huai Jin, and Li Caiwei had already put on the bright red bridal attire. Lanxin was styling her hair while offering auspicious blessings.
Li Caiwei felt extremely happy in her heart. Holding the jade hairpin Shen Huai Jin had given her, she thought that no matter how long it would last, she would stay by his side. Just then, a servant hurriedly approached Li Caiwei and reported that Shen Huai Jin had passed away suddenly the previous night. Li Caiwei was greatly shocked upon hearing this news. She never expected such a tragedy to occur. Hastily, she ran to Shen Huai Jin's room and indeed saw Shen Huai Jin, who had shared intimate conversations with her just the day before, lying peacefully there.
Li Caiwei couldn't help but burst into tears as she threw herself onto Shen Huai Jin. She didn't understand why such a problem would arise after all the dangers had been eliminated. In a moment of despair, Li Caiwei pulled out the sword of a nearby guard and placed it against her own neck. The prince and Shen Huaibi hurriedly tried to stop her. The prince knew that she and Shen Huai Jin shared deep affection, but he would never allow her to accompany him in death.
Shen Huaibi also advised her, saying that her brother passed away peacefully without suffering and hoped she would find solace. However, Li Caiwei had made up her mind. She had to accompany Shen Huai Jin and help uncover who was responsible for his death.
