The Little Handmaiden Episode 14 Recap
> The Little Handmaiden Recap
Wanwan returned home and found Li Canglang waiting for her. Li Canglang had prepared a few dishes, and when Wanwan entered, he raised a toast to her. Wanwan thought that Li Canglang had already agreed to run away with her, so she happily drank the wine. After drinking the wine, she realized her face was turning red, only then did she realize that Li Canglang had tampered with the drink.
Seeing Wanwan's vulnerability, Li Canglang couldn't help but feel guilty. At that moment, Shen Xiuning and Jiang Li also entered. It turned out that in the two porcelain bottles that Li Canglang had retrieved, Jiang Li discovered that the medicine inside was identical to the one Dr. Wang had prescribed for Chunyan. This led them to suspect that Wanwan was Chunyan and that Li Canglang had come to test her intentionally.
Wanwan tried to make excuses, but Jiang Li presented further evidence. According to the blacksmith Zhu Datou's statement, Wanwan had an injury on her knuckles from following her father in blacksmithing. Unable to hide the truth any longer, Wanwan had to admit that she was indeed Chunyan. However, when Jiang Li asked about the vengeful ghost killings, she angrily revealed that it was Lord Jiang who had orchestrated those killings.
Lord Jiang and the former county official conspired to embezzle disaster relief grain funds, which was overheard by the maid Chunyan. In response, Lord Jiang raped her and attempted to kill her to keep her silent. After Chunyan escaped to Old Li's home, Lord Jiang pursued her, killing the elderly couple and framing it as the work of a vengeful ghost. To avenge the deaths of the elderly couple, Chunyan devised a plan to kill him.
