Catching the master mind

Catching the master mind

Qi pa wants to be vindicated after she catches the real culprit and wants kui mulang to allow her freedom to leave the palace and not be grounded any longer. Kui mulang visits qi pa in prison at night as she was alone and would be frightened. He brings pesticide powder to scare rats and cockroaches.. Qi pa strangely sprinkles some powder on her clothes and some on kui mulang's garments because that would be more effective. 😄

Qi pa plans to use distraction for catching the real culprit... She will use misdirection to see who reacts involuntarily. Hai tang disguised as stewardess qing assures xiniang that qi pa's investigation failed... But unbeknownst to her kui mulang has her followed. Haitang goes to the prison secure that her cover is safe to assassinate qi pa but is caught in the trap sprung by qi pa and kui mulang.

After catching the real culprit, qi pa goes to kui mulang to remind him to fulfill his promise and set her free from restriction to stay in the palace... Much to qi pa's surprise, kui mulang acquiescence.

Qi pa accuses Li xiong of being remiss and not trying to find a way to get back home to Daxia. ... In order to retain qi pa's trust in him Li xiong pretends to go along with qi pa's escape plan and takes her out of the palace.

After escaping the palace, qi pa decides to disguise both of them by cross dressing... Qi pa dresses as a man and li xiong as a woman... (This scene is very nicely enacted by both the actors) When li xiong dressed as a woman draws qi pa dressed as the husband's attention on the leering guards who are ogling li xiong's pretty form... Qi pa scolds the guard and waist grabs 'his wife' and takes li xiong away from the lustful gaze of the guards.
( this scene is also mirrored in episode 30,kui Mulang waist grabs qi pa and walks her forward away from the guard's gaze when they both are dressed in Western clothes going for their honeymoon)

Qi pa reaches the forest but the jaunt is useless as only kui mulang can remove the enchantment.
