Episode 16 recap: Gu Zhiyao learned that the national teacher sacrificed for her.
Gu Zhiyao returned with the medicine given by the national teacher and learned from Shen Jinmo that the pill was refined using the national teacher's blood. Both Shen Jinmo and Gu Zhiyao found it strange. Gu Zhiyao also learned from Shen Jinmo that if the national teacher lost blood, it would be very serious. Understanding this, she immediately wanted to thank the national teacher for the sacrifice.
It turned out that the national teacher was Shen Jinmo's older brother. Gu Zhiyao once again went to the national teacher's cave, and at this time, the national teacher was seriously injured, which made Gu Zhiyao very anxious. When Gu Zhiyao saw that the national teacher's condition had stabilized, she returned home. After meeting, Shen Jinmo inquired about the national teacher's condition and was relieved to learn that the national teacher's condition had stabilized.
Minister of the Ministry of Justice, Wen Kexuan, came to Gu Zhiyao's home to investigate the assassination attempt on Gu Zhiyao and wanted to question both of them. Wen Kexuan asked if they knew any details about the people in black. At that moment, Shen Jinmo took out the token he had found and handed it to Wen Kexuan to see.
Upon seeing the token, Wen Kexuan's expression noticeably changed, showing some panic. He quickly made an excuse and left. Although Wen Kexuan tried to conceal it, both Shen Jinmo and Gu Zhiyao noticed the change in his expression. Afterward, Wen Kexuan seemed to be in a dilemma because upon seeing the token, he realized that the case involved a wide range of people, and as a Minister of the Ministry of Justice, he couldn't handle it alone.
