Strange Tales of Tang Dynasty Episode 24

More questions than answers

Li Yingtao shows up for the burial service but it is revealed that the governor is not the corpse in the coffin. Now the search is on to find him before three day festival ends. The case involves an unidentified chang’an beauty that was found dead and put in an underground tomb. Lu accidentally finds her when he locates a secret passage. His search was cut short by several alligators. When he returns with Su the body has been moved and they find the mute burying her by the river. When he is in for questioning he says he killed Li and the woman and then himself so that all roads lead to him. Prior to his capture he got a note to Yingtao so she knew he was alive. What is unclear is who she really is.When Su called her by name she said quit calling me that. She is like a daughter to the governor, but it is unclear if actually related. She did not know who the woman was and only responded with sincerity when she found out the mute was gone. They give him a grave outside the city and then head to Hansen. This is the next likely place to find governor. The red curtain stays part of the alligator shrines. Something is always hidden with this god. They found him but did not get out quick enough.
