Fighting for Love Episode 2 Recap
> Fighting for Love Recap
Marquis Dingnan told Shang Yizhi that he was not his biological son but adopted. His original name was Qi Huan, born in the 37th year of Yongxi. Qi Huan's father was the former Crown Prince, and Qi Huan's biological mother was the Crown Princess. On the day he was born, the Crown Prince's entire family was wiped out, and only Shang Yizhi luckily survived. Now the Emperor's suspicion is growing more severe, perhaps worried that Shang Yizhi has rebellious intentions.
Marquis Dingnan instructed Shang Yizhi to act cautiously in the future because his remaining time was short and he could no longer ensure Shang Yizhi's safe retreat. Just after Shang Yizhi heard about his background, Marquis Dingnan passed away that night. The Princess asked the pharmacist who made the medicinal bath for Marquis Dingnan. This pharmacist had also participated in making the pills Marquis Dingnan took daily, so she understood the situation roughly.
Soon after, the imperial physician was summoned by the Emperor, and then silenced by the Dark Dragon Guard. The mastermind was clearly revealed. Chun Niang from Emerald Pavilion brought news to A Mai. She should leave Shengcheng city and head north to find a person nicknamed Ghost Hand A Si. This person would naturally tell her Chen Qi's whereabouts.
Before Marquis Dingnan was even buried, the Emperor eagerly issued an imperial decree allowing Shang Yizhi to inherit the title and arranged a post for him in the Ministry of Rites. Shang Yizhi's mother clearly knew it was ominous and wanted to try her best to make the Emperor revoke the decree, but one look from the Emperor made her feel like she had needles in her back.
The next day, the Eldest Princess Shenghua knelt and walked step by step to the main hall, begging the Emperor to revoke the decree. As a result, the Emperor deliberately tested them by appointing Shang Yizhi to a post in Qingzhou. Marquis Dingnan had said this place was very safe before his death, as there were many of his old subordinates there.
Since the Emperor mentioned it, the Eldest Princess Shenghua naturally did not object, but this precisely displeased the Emperor. During the day, the Emperor sent the Dark Dragon Guard to kill the three masters who had been hidden in Emerald Pavilion teaching Shang Yizhi martial arts, including Chun Niang. Within two days, Shang Yizhi lost his father and his three most trusted masters; it was like a bolt from the blue.
Fortunately, the Eldest Princess Shenghua saw him off and comforted him, telling him to cheer up. Shang Yizhi was sent out of the mansion by the Eldest Princess Shenghua, thinking that everything would be smooth sailing from then on, but he did not expect that what awaited him would be full of dangers. The Emperor had been waiting at the inner gate of the city entrance for a long time.
Seeing Shang Yizhi's party leave the city, he immediately ordered the most elite guards to be dispatched, looking for an opportunity to eliminate Shang Yizhi. The Eldest Princess Shenghua ordered her subordinates to tightly close the gates and not send out any information about anyone until Shang Yizhi had reached his destination. A Mai was preparing to leave the city to find Ghost Hand A Si.
She happened to encounter Shang Yizhi also leaving the city with a group of capable generals. A Mai did not go forward to greet him. Since they each had their own missions, they simply went their separate ways. A Mai galloped all the way to the post station. Originally, only imperial officials stayed in such places, but money can make the world go round. After some bribery, the people at the post station readily agreed to let her stay.
That evening, the guards at the entire post station had an extra meal. They just happened to encounter an official on duty. A Mai looked up and saw that the thief who was caught was actually the partner she had previously collaborated with on a xian ren tiao. Fearing that her partner would expose her, A Mai immediately gestured to him not to speak. Late at night, while the guards were happily drinking, A Mai quietly went to the partner who was tied to a pillar in the front hall.
