Episode 13 recap: Xie Yun went to the Dou family to seek medicinal herbs to save Yin Ji.
Xie Yun went to see Xiao Baobao's father, and mentioned the conspiracy between Danning and the others. In the end, she even blamed everything on her own father, and Xiao's father now says it was the old lord's plan. When Xie Yun saw that he still wasn't telling the truth, she threatened him with Xiao Baobao's life. Xie Yun asked her father if he had approached Yin Ji on the old lord's orders, and he confirmed this.
It turned out that all their previous encounters were fated, but in the end it was all a scheme. Xiao's father said he did not send anyone to kill Xie Yun's entire family, and that was all he knew. Xie Yun was extremely distraught, and she asked Xiao's father to provide evidence to prove his innocence. The only request Xiao's father made was to spare his daughter.
Under Xie Yun's coercion, Xiao's father finally admitted that the old lord had indeed signed a contract with the Xie family years ago, and it was hidden in the Cangjing Pavilion, which was not an easy place to go. After learning this, Xie Yun turned and left, and Xiao's father knelt on the ground begging her to spare Xiao Baobao, but she did not respond and left.
The thing Xiao's father was most worried about was his daughter. After returning, Xie Yun wanted to find the Cangjing Pavilion, as only by obtaining the scriptures inside could she prove the Xie family's innocence. But going to the Cangjing Pavilion was not an easy task. The last time she went was during Xiao Baobao's enfeoffment ceremony, and the next opportunity might be on the Dowager's birthday, but that was still five years away, which Xie Yun could not wait for. Therefore, the only way for her to get to the Cangjing Pavilion quickly was to become the lord's wife.
Xie Yun first went to find the Dowager, and told her that she and Yin Ji were truly in love. The Dowager said she would be very happy if Xie Yun became the lord's wife. At this moment, someone came with news that Yin Ji had fallen unconscious and his illness had not yet fully recovered.
Xie Yun rushed to Yin Ji's room immediately, and quickly wiped the extra beads of sweat from his forehead. The doctor had also checked the records and found that there was only one special remedy - a herb called Fangji Grass, but it grew in a very remote location. After telling the steward, the doctor was asked to leave.
At this time, Yin Ji also woke up, and said that the Fangji Grass grew in the Dou family's territory, but he had sworn never to set foot there, as the Yin and Dou families had always been at odds. However, in order to quickly obtain the medicine for Yin Ji, Xie Yun told the steward to request the medicine in the lord's name, and she would take responsibility if anything happened. The steward agreed.
The Dou family saw the letter from the Yin family, and since Yin Ji was seeking help from them, the Dou family patriarch agreed readily this time. Soon, Yin Ji woke up and was very angry to learn that a deal had been made with the Dou family. Xie Yun explained that it was her idea, and now the Dou family's envoy had arrived, so if Xie Yun didn't go, it would make the matter more troublesome.
In the end, Yin Ji agreed. The Dou family messenger said they would give them the Fangji Grass, but the condition was that Xie Yun had to go and get it personally. Yin Ji was very angry, but now his condition could not be delayed any further, so Xie Yun went with them to the Dou family.
After Yin Ji woke up and learned that Xie Yun had gone to the Dou family, he became very agitated. At this time, a black-clad person tried to attack Yin Ji, but fortunately Yin Ji had already prepared, and had Qi Yan pretend to be him. The intruder was caught, and then committed suicide by poison.
