《Against The Current》Episode 33 Synopsis

A reconciliation was achieved in court, and Jin Qi was punished on behalf of her sister.

 The second lady took out the arsenic wrapper, and the second wife finally stopped trying to stop her.She had to be busy with her son's wedding and return to Jinling the next day, so she couldn't care less about it.Lanxiang knew that it would be difficult for a woman to reconcile, so she had already prepared another way.At this time, the imperial examination results were released. Han Liang won the third prize, but Xie Zhao ranked last.The emperor lamented that Han and Xie were young and promising, and said that the Zhao family was good at choosing their grandson as their son-in-law. When asked about Jin Qi, Dai Qing's eldest son Dai Rui reported that he was in the government office fighting a divorce lawsuit for his sister.

Master Liu was interrogating the case, while Dai Rui was watching.Lan Xiang and Jin Qi knew that the Dai family had bad intentions. Fortunately, Mr. Liu was the British father-in-law and could still remain neutral.According to the law, Lu Jian did not want to reconcile, and the Yamen could not directly allow it, so Lu Jian was confident.Lan Xiang immediately sued the Lu family for misappropriating the Lin family's property, and handed over the list of items left to her eldest sister when the Lin family moved to Jinling, as well as the Lu family's pawn records and Lu's father's signature.

Although Lu Jian tore up his wife's dowry bill, he could not produce evidence to refute the set of documents in front of him.If the misappropriation of property is established, he will be punished and exiled. He has no choice but to agree to divorce in court, and his daughter will be raised by the Lin family and begs Lanxiang to withdraw the lawsuit.Seeing that her goal was achieved, Lan Xiang agreed to stop.However, Heli case still had to be punished according to the law. Jin Qi, his sister and Lu Jian each received one hundred canes. Jin Qi took pity on his sister's frailty and decided to bear it for her, a total of two hundred canes.

Dai Rui hinted that Mr. Liu could use this opportunity to give Jin Qi a favor.Lan Xiang was worried that something might happen to her under the sentence, so she told her face to face that if something happened to Jin Qi, she would definitely report it to the emperor. The presiding judge would not be able to escape responsibility, but Dai Rui, who was watching, might not be punished.Mr. Liu had no choice but to use experienced hands to execute him.Jin Qi was carried out of the Yamen, just in time for the team of new scholars. Han Liang was riding a horse in high spirits, and Lan Xiang looked at him and smiled.Jin Qi was disgusted by this and held her hand, but she did not avoid it.

Against The Current

At night, Jin Qi took advantage of his injury to keep Lan Xiang by his side.She saw that he could have used punishment to set up a trap against his political opponents, but she did not want to let things get to that point: the eldest sister was already weak, and if she blamed herself for her brother's serious injury, her health would only get worse; if Mother Lin knew that her son had suffered for her, she might also be angry.Jin Qi didn't expect that she was not only protecting herself, but also thinking about her sister's future situation.
