Episode 19 recap: Xie Yun asked Yin Ji to brew her some ginger tea.

Yin Ji had also specially made a swing for Xie Yun, hoping that Xie Yun could be very happy here every day. Qi Yan took out the wine glasses, and the three of them also paid tribute to Xiao Baobao. Xiao's father was still hoping to see his daughter, but Xie Yun only sent Xiao Baobao's jewelry, and Xiao's father's emotions collapsed, feeling that they had killed his daughter. Xiao's father also said that he had indeed dispatched someone to assassinate the Xie family on the way to exile, but they were all preempted by Yin Ji. Xie Yun couldn't believe her ears, and couldn't believe that Yin Ji would actually kill so many of her family members.

Yin Ji had been waiting for Xie Yun to come find her that night, but after waiting for a long time, she still didn't see Xie Yun. Just when she thought Xie Yun wouldn't come, Xie Yun came with wine and wine glasses. Yin Ji didn't expect Xie Yun to be so eager to drink Lanling wine, and she recalled the scene of their first time getting drunk together, when Yin Ji was not yet the city lord. Yin Ji also mentioned her promise from back then to treat everyone to Lanling wine on her wedding day.

The two drank quite a lot that night, and Xie Yun soon fell asleep. Yin Ji held Xie Yun, and in her daze, Xie Yun kept saying she wanted Yin Ji's specially brewed ginger tea. Yin Ji kissed Xie Yun's forehead and forced herself out of her haze to go brew the tea.

Xie Yun remembered that Yin Ji used to put the key in the drawer under the table, so while Yin Ji was brewing the tea, she secretly put the key in her own bag. When Yin Ji came back and saw that Xie Yun had fallen asleep, she gently leaned Xie Yun against her shoulder and carried her back to the room. After seeing Xie Yun asleep, Yin Ji left first, and Xie Yun opened her eyes after Yin Ji had gone.

Back then, everything had been prepared for their marriage, but in the end they were still unable to be together. The old woman lit an incense stick for her son and husband. Today was the day Xie Yun became the city lord's wife, and she could also go to the library to find the secrets she wanted.

The maidservant dressed and decorated Xie Yun early in the morning. Although this was Xie Yun's second marriage, the feeling was completely different. The maidservant also said she would always be by Xie Yun's side. Xie Yun looked at herself in the mirror and sighed deeply, smiling. She was finally going to marry the loved Yin Ji, but this time it was also with a purpose.

Xie Yun slowly withdrew the sharp dagger from the exquisite wooden box. Her gaze was firm and decisive, clearly prepared to face death. If this was indeed Yin Ji's cruel harm to her parents, then she would fearlessly seek justice for them, using this dagger to end the life of the enemy.

Perhaps this was the inescapable fate between her and Yin Ji, a grudge destined to end in blood and tears.
