The Maid Ballad Episode 13 Recap
> The Maid Ballad Recap
Because someone drugged Chen Tongxue, causing him to lose strength and be unable to compete, the prince from the Kingdom of Kun successfully hit the bullseye and started provoking Chen Tongxue. Xuan Qiancao took the initiative to compete in archery on behalf of Chen Tongxue. However, the Crown Prince had malicious intentions and deliberately ordered the target to be moved two hundred steps away. Xuan Qiancao, undeterred, bravely stepped forward and requested the target to be moved another hundred steps away. The crowd held their breath, fearing that a woman taking on such a responsibility might bring disgrace to the Kingdom of Wei if she were to fail. But to everyone's surprise, Xuan Qiancao hit the bullseye with every shot, garnering applause from the onlookers. Chen Tongxue felt relieved and proud of Xuan Qiancao's achievement.
The following day, after the Emperor summoned Chen Tongxue to the palace for a face-to-face recognition, he demanded that Chen Tongxue kill Xuan Qiancao as proof of his loyalty. As Xuan Qiancao was a descendant of the traitorous Xuan family, the Emperor suspected that Chen Tongxue might have hidden motives if he were to protect her. Chen Tongxue found himself in a dilemma.
Upon hearing that Chen Tongxue was injured, He Lingying went to visit him with medicine. However, she unexpectedly encountered the Crown Prince on the way. The Crown Prince warned her, as his fiancée, not to have any ulterior motives and threw away the medicine she had brought.
After returning to the palace in a huff, the Crown Prince witnessed a dispute between two palace maids, one of them being Lan Yao. Noticing the Crown Prince's presence, Lan Yao was momentarily unaware. In his angered state, the Crown Prince ordered both of them to receive a punishment of fifty beatings as a severe warning. This made Lan Yao panic.
