Eternal Brotherhood Episode 21 Recap
> Eternal Brotherhood Recap
The councilors jointly pressured Zichuan Canxing, wanting him to hand over the governance of Yuanzhou to the elder of the Zoey clan, so that their interests could be guaranteed. But this had already touched Zichuan Canxing's bottom line. However, the power of the Three Provinces Directorate could check the monarch, and Zichuan Canxing could not think of a good solution for a while. At the critical moment, Di Lin walked in.
Originally, Di Lin was not qualified to attend the Three Provinces Directorate meeting. After he heard the councilors' excessive remarks outside, he immediately stepped forward to criticize their treasonous actions. The councilors accused Di Lin of being unqualified to criticize them, but Di Lin directly stated that their words and actions were treason. This huge accusation made everyone daren't act rashly, and they could only use the power of the Three Provinces Directorate to expel Di Lin.
Di Lin saw that Zichuan Canxing did not express any opinion, apparently acquiescing to his actions. So, taking advantage of the opportunity to walk out, he suddenly drew his sword and stabbed the Zoey clan elder to death as he passed by him. With the elder dead, the councilors' plan fell through, and Zichuan Canxing's predicament was resolved.
When everyone was accusing Di Lin of his actions, Zichuan Canxing stepped forward to speak for him, resolving the situation lightly, and the councilors had nothing more to say. After the meeting, the councilors gathered to discuss countermeasures. Helpless against Di Lin, they turned their attention to Si Te Lin, intending to attack him with rumors, ultimately forcing him to be unable to fight. Si Te Lin escorted Zichuan Ning back to the Imperial Capital.
Zichuan Ning was worried that she would be blamed by her uncle. Unexpectedly, Zichuan Canxing acted out of character and instead talked about his own mistakes. He prepared a lot of food that she liked, and also taught her how to study ancient history using pictures. Zichuan Ning's hanging heart finally settled. Li Qing was very happy to see Si Te Lin, but Si Te Lin had a cold face.
In his heart now, besides Ka Dan, there was no room for other women. Ka Dan was exceptionally joyful after hearing the news of Si Te Lin's return. However, considering her identity, she was also afraid of bringing trouble to Si Te Lin. Moreover, the current rumors outside were unfavorable to him. Under Zichuan Ning's arrangement, she disguised herself as an attendant and followed Zichuan Ning to meet Si Te Lin.
After the two met, they confessed their feelings to each other, their affection deep and lingering, unable to bear parting. Zichuan Canxing sought the ministers' attitude towards the punitive army. Many people accused Si Te Lin of not following orders, delaying military opportunities, and indirectly causing the death of many soldiers. This time, Luo Minghai strongly supported Si Te Lin. Zichuan Canxing was very satisfied with Luo Minghai's performance, which was exactly what he wanted.
He decided to reward Si Te Lin, conferring upon him the title of Duke of Loyalty and Valor, and granting him the Zichuan family medal. At the same time, he bestowed a marriage between him and Li Qing. Si Te Lin refused on the grounds that the country's affairs were not settled.
Di Lin knew his thoughts and feared that he would make further transgressions, so he stepped forward to smooth things over, saying that Si Te Lin was too excited to speak. After Zichuan Ning learned about Zichuan Canxing bestowing marriage upon Si Te Lin, she felt indignant for Ka Dan. Although Ka Dan was heartbroken, she would rather have a lifetime of regret than let her beloved fall into a difficult situation.
On the other side, Di Lin persuaded Si Te Lin not to sacrifice his future on a momentary impulse. But Si Te Lin's mind was made up. He would rather die on the battlefield than betray Ka Dan. The North Clan army invaded, and Moon Bay fell. Luo Minghai suggested immediately dispatching Si Te Lin to meet the enemy. Zichuan Canxing also had this idea. Just then, Si Te Lin requested an audience.
He then assigned Si Te Lin the task. After receiving the order, Si Te Lin knelt and pleaded with Zichuan Canxing to withdraw the decree of marriage. Zichuan Canxing guessed that he had someone he loved, but upon hearing that Si Te Lin's beloved was actually Ka Dan, the princess of the North Clan, he immediately frowned.
