> Me and My Delicate Husband Recap
Mu Zhixi wanted the Emperor to kill Li Huai, rectify the court, and seek revenge for his mother. However, the Emperor believed that half of the court officials were Li Huai's students and followers. Moreover, Li Huai was deep-minded and cautious in his actions. Although he engaged in some illegal activities behind the scenes, he fulfilled his responsibilities in governance. The stability of the Mu family's regime owed much to him. But Mu Zhixi believed that in order to secure his reign, the Emperor should not have let his mother die unjustly and allowed the culprit to remain at large. Since the Emperor refused to take action, Mu Zhixi decided to join forces with his uncle to eliminate Li Huai.
Looking at the hairpin belonging to Consort Yun, Kong Qiqi suddenly remembered that before her transmigration, she had captured Li Huai, the mastermind behind a series of poisoning cases, with crucial evidence. Li Huai held a grudge against her and wanted to kill her. Fortunately, Mu Zhixi arrived in time to save her. With this realization, she suddenly understood that both Consort Yun and Ren An's deaths were caused by Li Huai's poison. She thought of examining Ren An's body again and if she found evidence of poison in Li Huai's residence, she could prove his guilt. However, Mu Zhixi feared that once Kong Qiqi discovered the truth, she would leave him. So, he ordered Chaihu to keep an eye on her and not let her leave the palace.
Li Huai went to the prison cell and administered poison to Xu Huaiqing. He warned him that if he wanted the antidote, he had to go to the Emperor and accuse the Ninth Prince of using his authority to forcibly take the wife of the newly appointed top scholar and commit murder. The goal was to make the Emperor take action against the Ninth Prince. Xu Huaiqing, in order to obtain the antidote, had no choice but to follow Li Huai's instructions.
