The Trust Episode 9 Recap
> The Trust Recap
Xu Yu was worried that Xiao Jinming wouldn't be able to solve the case, but Xiao Jinyun comforted her by saying that Jiang Yuanzheng had already paved the way, and the evidence had been collected. Xiao Jinming only needed to go through the formalities in front of the courtiers and block their mouths. Xiao Jinming would tell everyone in front of the courtiers that the Xu family would withdraw from the investigation and explain that the Xu family was avoiding suspicion. Then, they would surround the Yunyang Count's mansion to prevent the evidence from escaping. Xiao Jinyun had already sent someone to intercept those who wanted to destroy the evidence. The evidence was in its proper place, and Xiao Jinming successfully searched for it. Later, Xiao Jinming went to the Seeking Fragrance Courtyard. Mudan was an omniscient person, and they went there to investigate the case. Xiao Jinyun analyzed Xiao Jinming's thoughts clearly, and Xu Yu listened with a big appetite.
Xiao Jinming came to report the case to Xu Yu and Xiao Jinyun. The assassin was indeed sent by Marquis Yunyang, but he didn't admit that he wanted to assassinate Xiao Jinyun. Marquis Zhen Bei was also implicated in the matter. Unexpectedly, news came that Jingyao had hanged herself, but she was rescued. Previously, Xiao Jinyun had stripped her of her position, but he didn't expect Jingyao to commit suicide. Xiao Jinyun met Jingyao, and she kept saying that she only wanted to make her life a little better. She didn't care about anyone's feelings, even if they were in Xu Yu's position. Every woman in the harem was like this, which made Xiao Jinyun very disappointed. He couldn't help but think of Xu Yu and how she had suffered from neglect over the years. Jingyao was originally a spoiled young lady, but she was sent to such a ghostly place for the sake of her father and brothers' future. Her original life was trapped inside this inner courtyard.
Pei Xinzhu disregarded the obstruction and broke in, and Jingyao sent a message to Xiao Jinyun, then Pei Xinzhu, while Jingyao was not paying attention, took out the hairpin from her head and committed suicide. Xu Yu and Pei Xinzhu happened to see this scene when they came in. Pei Xinzhu was startled and wanted to say that there was something unusual about it, but Xu Yu supported her, and Pei Xinzhu did not dare to say anything. The few lines of poetry Jingyao recited made Xiao Jinyun quite puzzled. Perhaps Jingyao's death was caused by her pregnancy. Xiao Jinyun asked Xu Yu if she married him because of her father and brother's prospects. Xu Yu was a little angry and a little shy. Suddenly, Xiao Jinyun told Xu Yu that Jingyao did not die. The truth was that Xiao Jinyun told Jingyao that she could go out and live the life she wanted, but she had to tell him who instructed her to do so. So there was the scene of Jingyao's suicide, in fact, Jingyao had quietly left this prison that had confined her.
Xu Yu remembered a few months ago when Pei Xinzhu had hit Jingyao. Pei Xinzhu was jealous, but Xiao Jinyun believed that she wouldn't harm anyone, and someone might be trying to frame her. Although it was an internal affair, the mastermind might not be in the inner palace. Xiao Jinyun asked Xu Yu to stay and rest in Fengyi Palace tonight. When they were sleeping together, Xiao Jinyun asked her if she had ever regretted marrying him. Xu Yu naturally hadn't, and Xiao Jinyun was very happy, leaving a kiss on her head.
Early in the morning, Xu Yu went to Pei Xinzhu's palace. To please her, Pei Xinzhu gritted her teeth and exchanged her jewelry for silver coins to serve as military pay, which was heartbreaking for her. Xu Yu asked if Pei Xinzhu knew the truth about Jingyao's incident. When Xiao Jinyun woke up and heard that Xu Yu had gone to Pei Xinzhu's place, he hurried over and witnessed Pei Xinzhu's confession of hanging herself, claiming that she had harmed Jingyao. Xiao Jinyun was very unhappy and decided to rectify the atmosphere in the inner palace.
