To many, Lord Yan appears as a vicious and corrupt official, an observant investigator and a feared representative of the Emperor. To Xie Qing Yan, he appears as her savior when Nanny Rong and Second Madam were determined to punish her with 10 lashes after embarrassing the family in front of an outsider.
When sisterly conflict was witnessed by the Lady Prefect, Qing Yuan took on the blame alone to gain Eldest Sister's trust and to uncover the people who hated her mother the most. Qing Yuan may have underestimated their hatred as the lashings were brutal, bringing out Lord Yan's protective instinct. He spirits her away under the guise of "protecting a witness in a current investigation."

What in the hell is happening ?! So no one can stop Yan Run but the emperor now, the guy just gonna break in every rich folks houses in Hengtang with no notice and he gets away with it 🤦 smh all for the sake of plot armor ig🙃. And now we know he's also playing a Jekyll and Hyde scheme in the court, I betcha Yan Run and Shen Run are the same guy theres just no way he's not doing some self sabotage and reported himself to the emperor for his grand revenge plan in Hengtang.

1 I really loved the scene where Shen Run misses his beautiful lady (Xie Qing Yuan) and ends up eating sugar cubes. 😂
He really knows how to make that expression work! 🤭
And then there’s the scene where he comes to help her when she’s being bullied. The look on his face and those sharp words of his… Shen Run has quite a sharp tongue!^__^😏.
Perhaps it hurts even more when someone dares to hurt someone important to him.
Shen Run and Xia Qingyuan are equally sly! 🤭
They’re truly a perfect match for each other. 😂
This feels like the main event of a boxing match…
A battle of two equally sly minds! 🤭
Who’s going to win this battle of wits?! ^^🥊
So much fun! Xu Kai and Zhou Ye make such a lovely pair—so cute, beautiful, and handsome together. 🥰✨
