Episode 25
In the bustling market, Su Wuming strolled leisurely with a scroll, while Lu Lingfeng stood on a high place, overlooking the prosperous scene of Yunding Night Market, but there were ripples in his heart.He lamented the superficial peace, but Lu Lingfeng held a different view, believing that there were often undercurrents under the prosperity, which could easily become a breeding ground for evil.Su Wuming curiously asked about the criteria for judging the government's actions. Lu Lingfeng believed that the court's judgment and the will of the people should be combined.Su Wuming laughed and said that Lu Lingfeng had become more worldly, and emphasized that real political achievements can only be recognized by the people.Lu Lingfeng further questioned Sima Liang's collusion between officials and businessmen, and worried about the darkness hidden under the prosperous age.Su Wuming was silent, while Lu Lingfeng was determined to meet with the county magistrate tomorrow to expose the matter.
Not wanting to be enveloped in a dull atmosphere, Su Wuming proposed to continue enjoying the fun of the night market and invited Cherry to accompany him, but unexpectedly offended Lu Lingfeng.He left with his heart full of worries, looking for Pei Xijun to talk to.At the same time, Su Wuming met a vendor selling wolf tendon by chance. After some twists and turns, he exchanged his kindness for the real thing, which made Yingying both angry and respectful.Later, Zhao Yu's appearance broke the calm. She mistakenly believed that Su Wuming was the mastermind behind her brother's tragedy. Fortunately, Lu Lingfeng stopped her in time.Through Tongwen and Lao Fei's testimony, Zhao Yu finally let go and revealed what happened to her brother and her doubts.
Lu Lingfeng and his party were deeply aware of the complexity of the case, and Pei Xijun advised Lu Lingfeng to act with caution.Su Wuming gave the wolf tendon to Lu Lingfeng, implying that wisdom can also be the key to solving the case.However, when they faced the drunken Sima Liang, the atmosphere became tense again.Song Shang defended Sima Liang and even made a ridiculous suggestion to let Su Wuming act as Lu Lingfeng's housekeeper, which shocked everyone.Lu Lingfeng expressed doubts about the existence of the night market, and the governor mentioned the disappearance of Lu Xianke, adding to the confusion.The emergence of Suolong intensified the internal conflicts. Lu Lingfeng used dragon tendons to test the authenticity, demonstrating his determination and wisdom, which attracted everyone's attention.
