Fighting for Love Episode 20 Recap

The equipment in the Seventh Battalion was insufficient. A Mai went to the Military Advisor, hoping he could approve the request. The Military Advisor deliberately directed her to Shang Yizhi, saying it would be much easier to borrow from Shang Yizhi than from him. A Mai quickly ran to find Shang Yizhi and managed to persuade him with a few sweet words. Each soldier in the Seventh Battalion received a military knife.
The Military Advisor and Shang Yizhi discussed the situation. The strength difference between the Northern Desert army and the southern advancing soldiers was vast. If Chang Yuqing returned for another attack next time, they would have no chance of winning. The two decided to conquer Yuzhou as soon as possible. Yuzhou was rich in grain and supplies; only by conquering Yuzhou would they have enough strength to confront Chen Qi.
Tang Shaoyi was sent to Yuzhou to investigate the situation and confirm whether Shi Dachun had truly surrendered to the Northern Desert army. Going alone was not thorough, so Shang Yizhi sent A Mai and Tang Shaoyi to Yuzhou together. Chen Qi had previously promised Shi Dachun not to disturb the city's residents, but just a few days after entering the city, he went back on his word.
He specifically sought out Shi Dachun and asked him to list several wealthy households in Yuzhou city. Shi Dachun clearly understood Chen Qi's intentions but did not comply. Chen Qi then warned him that if he refused, there might be multiple fires breaking out in the city that night.
To protect the city's residents, Shi Dachun had no choice but to write down the names of two prosperous families in Yuzhou who had previously acquired their wealth through theft and robbery. A Mai and Tang Shaoyi secretly infiltrated Yuzhou city. They went to meet Shi Dachun and happened to see him accepting a box of jewels sent by Chen Qi. Shi Dachun did not deny the rumors circulating outside that he was collaborating with the enemy.
He only asked Tang Shaoyi and A Mai if they had a good plan to conquer Yuzhou. Hearing that Tang Shaoyi did not have a plan yet, he claimed that he would not act rashly without complete preparation, otherwise it would bring disaster upon the people of Yuzhou. Shi Dachun thought that the lives of the people under the Northern Desert army's administration were still the same as usual. A Mai took him out to observe.
Shi Dachun discovered that the city residents had all been plundered by the Northern Desert army, and the streets were filled with starving people, not at all as he had imagined. He then agreed to A Mai's daring attempt. This matter was very risky, and Shi Dachun wanted to meet Shang Yizhi. Tang Shaoyi and A Mai immediately rushed back to deliver the message. On her way back, A Mai saw the Northern Desert army harming innocent civilians.
The parents of two children had both died at the hands of the enemy. A Mai couldn't bear it and was about to save the two innocent children when Chang Yuqing appeared and killed the tyrannical Northern Desert soldier with one strike. A Mai was taken to the military camp by Chang Yuqing. She witnessed with her own eyes Chang Yuqing settling the two weak children. A Mai wanted Chang Yuqing to give her a chance to kill Chen Qi.
Chang Yuqing reminded her that it was impossible; Chen Qi had been through many battles and was deeply cunning throughout his career. However, A Mai was determined to kill Chen Qi, so Chang Yuqing gave her a set of clothes worn by maids. A Mai disguised herself as a servant carrying tea and water and entered Chen Qi's large tent. Chen Qi did not allow servants to approach closely.
A Mai threw away the tea bowl and asked Chen Qi why he killed her parents back then, reminding him that it was A Mai's parents who had raised Chen Qi from a pile of corpses. Chen Qi was very surprised to see A Mai appear. He had seen A Mai many times in his dreams, but now she was actually standing before him. Chen Qi instructed A Mai that he only wished for her to live well.
A Mai didn't understand why Chen Qi would betray his teacher and ancestors. The hatred between them was irreconcilable. Just as Chen Qi said that the people who entered Sheng Manor with him that day were not the Northern Desert army, Chang Yuqing's guards burst in. Chang Yuqing claimed that A Mai was a southern woman he had caught in the market today.
He had originally settled her safely in his large tent to be his wife, but she had come out on her own at night. He asked Chen Qi to release A Mai for his sake. Chang Yuqing ordered his subordinates to protect A Mai around the clock and stay by her side at all times. A Mai tried to escape several times but was unsuccessful. When Shang Yizhi heard the news of A Mai's capture, he took some trusted followers, disguised themselves, and came to Yuzhou.
