Episode 13 recap: Mo Ronghanbing was attacked late at night.
Mo Ronghanbing and Mei Kaishao analyzed who could be the person trying to kill her. Mei Kaishao believed that the person who sold medicine last time and the incident of poison in the Baizhen Pill were connected. Luckily, she didn't consume it, which prevented any mishaps. However, the person captured afterwards was from Fengcheng, and Mei Ao was also from Fengcheng. According to convention, Mei Kaishao should have become the head of the Mei family. The other party might have thought that her weak health would not allow her to live long, so they didn't take action. But now that they see her gradually recovering, they can't sit still and are attempting to kill her.
Mo Ronghanbing is worried about Mei Kaishao's safety and has entrusted her with the shadow. That night, while Mo Ronghanbing was discussing specific matters with the three officials who were preparing for the imperial examination, she encountered an assassin on her way back. In her desperation, Mo Ronghanbing used her martial arts, causing the cold poison in her body to flare up. Fortunately, she was saved by two guards who risked their lives, allowing her to escape.
After hearing the news, Mei Xuan planned to visit the palace early the next morning. When Mei Kaishao questioned her, she also learned about Mo Ronghanbing's injury and immediately rushed to visit her with the shadow. At that time, the three officials were also in Mo Ronghanbing's room. They saw a woman barging in and were about to drive her out, but the shadow stopped them and cleared the room, leaving only the two of them alone.
Mo Ronghanbing looked at Mei Kaishao, who had tears in her eyes. Her heart felt warm and touched, and the pain in her body lessened. Mei Kaishao suggested bringing back the shadow, but Mo Ronghanbing refused. The person she was most worried about at that moment was Mei Kaishao. Just as she finished speaking, Mo Ronghanbing fainted. Mei Kaishao looked at the blood-stained handkerchief in Mo Ronghanbing's hand, feeling heartbroken.
