Wen Yue used the killer's unique knife skills to end Gan Liang's life. This behavior aroused Zhao Buyu's vigilance.After the Hongqiao case broke out, Wen Yue's various actions became increasingly mysterious, making Zhao Buyu worried.So, he sent Zhao Pean'er home to visit Wen Yue, but Wen Yue left quietly without taking any clothes or jewelry, leaving only a letter to Zhao Buyu.
Recalling the scene on the fifteenth anniversary, a man named Xiao Yishui once brought snacks to Wen Yue.From the captain's mouth, Zhao Buyu also learned that Xiao Yishui had led a group of people to look for Poria and a certain junior sister.Zhao Buyu secretly speculated that Wen Yue might be the junior sister mentioned by the group.This thought made him more and more frightened.He took back all the money from Zhao Mo'er and Zhao Pan'er, and hurried to Fu Ling's place to find out the news.
It turned out that Wen Yue had received a threatening letter hidden in a snack box from her senior brother Xiao Yishui. The letter demanded that she must find the file on Li Yan's murder case that night, otherwise her whole family would be killed.In order to protect his family, Wen Yue chose to leave home quietly.Recalling the past fifteen years ago, she was still filled with fear.At that time, Master Shui Dagger decided to kill Li Yan on Qingming Festival and made a careful plan.Although Wen Yue knew that Li Yan was an upright official, she could not convince Shui Dagger to show mercy.In the end, the water dagger rose and fell, ending Li Yan's life.
Zhao Buyu came to the flower boat to look for Poria cocos, paid the fee according to the rules, and asked her about Xiao Yishui and his group.Fu Ling admitted that Xiao Yishui once asked her to deal with four boatmen.On the deserted lake, four boatmen were drinking and having fun, while Poria and the girls dressed up as mermaids came to seduce them.Soon, they took the bait and followed Poria into the boat.At this time, a group of people took the opportunity to board the ship.Through Fu Ling's mouth, Zhao Buyu learned that Xiao Yishui was having fun in Fan Lou.
At the same time, Wen Yue also came to Fanlou to look for Xiao Yishui.Xiao Yishui searched her whole body and felt relieved after confirming that she was not carrying weapons.He has already coveted Wen Yue and plans to return to the Water Bandits Gang with Wen Yue with the file.However, Wen Yue flatly rejected his request and used the excuse that he did not have the file with him.Xiao Yishui became so angry that he vented all his anger on his subordinates, and even beat them to death in a fit of anger.
When Zhao Buyu rushed to Fanlou, he saw from a distance that Gu Zhen and Wan Fu were looking for their boss to inquire about the whereabouts of a batch of pig heads.The boss quickly explained that the pork had been left behind and the pig's head had been discarded.Gu Zhen learned from his boss that Xiao Yishui was in Fan Tower at the moment, so he took Wan Fu to look for him without saying anything.
Xiao Yishui once again persuaded Wen Yue to follow him back, but Wen Yue was curious about why he wanted the files on Li Yan's case.Xiao Yishui expressed his intention to avenge his father Shui Dagger.It turned out that someone hired a water dagger to kill Li Yan fifteen years ago.Shui Dagger took Wen Yue and others onto Li Yan's boat and killed them all.However, the officers and soldiers of Dali Temple arrived quickly and killed Shui Dagger.The case was summarily concluded with a mob killing the corrupt official.But Wen Yue clearly remembered that Shui Dagger was killed by the officers and soldiers of Dali Temple.Xiao Yishui expressed doubts about this and believed that someone had reported the news to Dali Temple in advance, otherwise the officers and soldiers would not have arrived so quickly.
At this moment, Gu Zhen and Wan Fu suddenly brought people in and became suspicious of Xiao Yishui and Wen Yue.Upon seeing this, Zhao Buyu hurriedly stepped forward to rescue Wen Yue and lied that the two of them were here for a private meeting.Wen Yue made an excuse to come to Xiao Yishui to buy bamboo.Xiao Yishui claimed to be a Sichuan businessman and fell in love with Wen Yue at first sight.However, Gu Zhen did not believe what they said and checked Xiao Yishui's identity information.
At this moment, Dylan suddenly brought people to Fanlou and called Xiao Yishui brothers and chatted about family affairs in public.Seeing this, Gu Zhen had no choice but to take people away and Dylan also left soon after.At this time, only Zhao Buyu, Wen Yue and Xiao Yishui were left.Xiao Yishui ordered the two of them to be tied up, but Wen Yue took advantage of his unpreparedness to untie the rope and took Xiao Yishui hostage.Xiao Yishui had no choice but to agree to let Zhao Buyu go but suspected that Wen Yue had not obtained the file on Li Yan's murder case.Wen Yue urged Zhao Buyu to leave first, but Zhao Buyu was worried about Wen Yue's safety and memorized the file on Li Yan's case word for word on the spot.
After Xiao Yishui let Wen Yue go, he couldn't wait to know the identity of the person who settled the case and suspected that he was the person who framed his father.Zhao Buyu recalled that the person who signed the contract was Cheng Rui, the judge of Dali Temple, but this person died three years ago.However, Xiao Yishui determined that the person who framed his father was still alive and the person who created auspiciousness today was also this person.So Xiao Yishui deliberately sabotaged Xiangrui in order to induce that person to show up.
Xiao Yishui took out the secret letter written by that person to his father and compared it with the handwriting of someone hired to make auspicious things today and found that they were exactly the same.Xiao Yishui wanted to get the files on Li Yan's case for comparison, but Wen Yue had to admit that the files had been burned.Xiao Yishui therefore determined that the person who set the fire was the culprit of this series of cases and immediately took people to investigate.Before leaving, he also told Wen Yue to wait for him to come back.
After careful consideration, Wen Yue decided to confess her life experience to Zhao Buyu.She lost her parents when she was a child and became a refugee. Later, she was forced to join the Jiangnan water bandits.Gan Liang found out her details and threatened her, so she had no choice but to kill him.Xiao Yishui pretended to be a bamboo merchant and came to discuss business with Wen Yue and let her watch the whole process of his destruction of auspiciousness.Afterwards, Xiao Yishui forced Wen Yue to go to Dali Temple to steal the files.After listening to Wen Yue's narration, Zhao Buyu's heart was filled with complex emotions.
After careful consideration, Wen Yue asked Zhao Buyu to sign the divorce letter she had prepared in advance, but Zhao Buyu firmly disagreed and burned the divorce letter.Wen Yue knew that Xiao Yishui would definitely come to her, so she didn't want to implicate Zhao Buyu and gave him all her savings in the hope that he could buy a big house.However, Zhao Buyu was very angry about this and wanted to find his father Zhao Li for comment.When Zhao Mo'er and Zhao Pan'er learned that Zhao Buyu and his wife were going to divorce, they were anxious.After Zhao Li came over after hearing the news, Wen Yue admitted that she took the initiative to ask for divorce because she had not given birth to a son and a half for the Zhao family in so many years.But Zhao Li thought this was Zhao Buyu's problem, while Zhao Mo'er and Zhao Pan'er worked hard to keep Wen Yue.
Early the next morning, Zhao Buyu took Zhao Moer to the big mule and horse shop to buy horses.He soon took his fancy to a horse from a man whom he had bought fifteen years before.After some haggling, the two parties finally concluded the deal.However, at this moment, Zhao Moer suddenly discovered a suspicious Tianzhu man buying horses.There were actually traces of burnt saltpeter, bitter earth and sulfur on his sleeves.At this moment, someone was holding a dagger and wanted to assassinate the Tianzhu man. Zhao Buyu shouted to scare the killer away, picked up the Tianzhu man and left in a hurry.
