The Princess and the Werewolf Episode 5 Recap
> The Princess and the Werewolf Recap
Qi Pa insisted on finding out the true culprit behind her framing, and she had a plan in mind. So, Kui Mu Lang agreed to her plan and had Liu Jun gather all the palace maids, including Bai Ke and Hu Die, to the dungeon. Kui Mu Lang had also decided that if they couldn't find the true culprit, he would be willing to act as an inept ruler to save Qi Pa at all costs. He intended to go to the dungeon to accompany Qi Pa, even if it meant alarming the elders. He was determined to protect her.
Later, Kui Mu Lang arrived at the dungeon and gave Qi Pa a bottle of powder to repel insects and ants. Qi Pa randomly spread the powder all over her body and also put some on herself and Kui Mu Lang. When she heard that Kui Mu Lang intended to stay in the dungeon with her, she quickly declined his offer and moved back in a hurry. Kui Mu Lang thought she was afraid of him, and his face showed displeasure. Qi Pa quickly explained that she was actually considering his position. As the Beast King, it was inappropriate for him to stay in the dungeon with a suspect.
On the night of the assassination attempt, Qi Pa felt the assassin's chest, and that feeling was still fresh in her memory. So, she touched the chests of all the palace maids one by one, but couldn't find that familiar feeling. It turned out that Hai Tang had prepared herself in advance by binding her chest with cloth strips. Seeing that Qi Pa couldn't find any evidence, Hu Die took the initiative and had Qi Pa arrested.
Qi Pa hastily interrupted and claimed that she had evidence. She presented a strand of hair, saying it was pulled from the murderer on the day when Chun Er was pushed into the well. Hu Die snatched the hair and threw it on the ground, firmly accusing Qi Pa of being the culprit. No matter how Qi Pa explained, Hu Die remained unmoved and ordered her to be taken to the dungeon for execution.
After learning that Kui Mu Lang had sent more people to search for the owner of the hair, Hai Tang went to the dungeon at night, intending to silence the person. Unexpectedly, she fell into a trap set by Qi Pa. Meanwhile, Hu Die and Bai Ke acted quickly and quickly destroyed Hai Tang's contacts and found some traces of medicine. Through investigation, the formula of this medicine was 70% similar to the poison that caused the Beast Clan to go berserk five years ago. Kui Mu Lang couldn't help but speculate that the mysterious person might have discovered the Spirit Pearl in Qi Pa's possession.
Qi Pa carefully studied the map of the Beast City, trying to find a way to return through the city gate. However, her travel restriction had not been lifted yet, so she had to find Kui Mu Lang to ask him to lift the restriction as promised. Kui Mu Lang was very accommodating and immediately lifted her restriction. Qi Pa left happily. Seeing her smile, Kui Mu Lang smiled as well. After this incident, Qi Pa's reputation in the palace became better, while the aggressive Hu Die received criticism from everyone. Little did they know that Hu Die overheard the criticism and was infuriated.
Meanwhile, Qi Pa found a way to escape from the Beast City and hurriedly called Li Xiong to discuss a plan. But seeing Li Xiong constantly speaking up for Kui Mu Lang and seemingly reluctant to return to Da Xia, Qi Pa couldn't help but suspect his identity. To dispel her doubts, Li Xiong quickly agreed and promised to find a way to get her out of the Beast City. To ensure the plan went smoothly, Kui Mu Lang specially asked Liu Jun to distract Hong Xiu.
With the token provided by Li Xiong, Qi Pa was able to leave the Beast King's palace. To avoid suspicion, she disguised herself as a man, while Li Xiong dressed up as a woman. Then, Li Xiong came out from behind the door, his face painted with various colors, and he wore female attire. Seeing the shy Li Xiong, Qi Pa couldn't help but smile with satisfaction.
Subsequently, she and Li Xiong arrived at the city gate, intending to use the token to leave. However, the guards kept staring at Li Xiong as if they wanted to devour him. Feeling uneasy, Li Xiong hid behind Qi Pa. Realizing the situation, Qi Pa loudly asked the guards if she was allowed to leave the city with Li Xiong. After receiving an affirmative answer from the guards, Qi Pa intentionally held Li Xiong's waist tightly and confidently walked out. However, even after leaving the Beast City, she couldn't find her way back, so she had to rest temporarily in a cave.
