> Me and My Delicate Husband Recap
Kong Qiqi pointed out that Xu Huaiqing didn't confess and revealed that he had roasted oleander flowers to make poisoned tea, which killed Qin Chu Chu. He also used catnip in the fragrance powder to make the cats go crazy, leading everyone to mistakenly believe it was the work of a cat demon. Despite hearing this, Xu Huaiqing still refused to confess. Mu Zhixi wanted him to drink the poisoned tea, but Xu Huaiqing kept his lips tightly sealed, choosing death over consuming the tea. He also disclosed that Qin Chu Chu was the daughter of the imperial physician who served Consort Yun in the past.
Mu Zhixi received a tampered book from Qin Chu Chu's hidden compartment at Xu Huaiqing's house. It contained records of Consort Yun's poisoning. Mu Zhixi read it and couldn't help but burst into tears, overwhelmed with sadness. Kong Qiqi was there to comfort him.
Upon learning that the Crown Prince had been washed away by the flood, the Emperor immediately coughed up blood and fell ill. He wanted Mu Zhixi to retrieve the Crown Prince, but Mu Zhixi decided to accuse Li Huai instead. He presented numerous pieces of evidence, pointing out Li Huai's plot to harm the imperial heir, embezzlement of funds, exploitation of the people, the sale of official positions, and the poisoning of the Empress. Seeing that Mu Zhixi had already uncovered the truth, the Emperor revealed that due to his favoritism towards Mu Zhixi when he was young, Li Huai feared that Mu Zhixi would threaten the Crown Prince's position. As a result, Li Huai poisoned Consort Yun with Bai You Jie, a weakening poison that gradually led to her demise. The Emperor explained that those who were affected by this poison would gradually weaken and eventually die. Fearing harm from Li Huai, Consort Yun had the imperial physician administer Da Cheng Qi Tang, a medicine that would make Mu Zhixi appear sickly and not pose a threat to the Crown Prince. The Emperor also revealed that he was aware of this situation, much to Mu Zhixi's surprise. Mu Zhixi's uncle had thought that Consort Yun had been buried in the imperial mausoleum, considering it a glorious event, without realizing that his sister had been poisoned. He felt deeply guilty about it.
