Fighting for Love Episode 21 Recap
> Fighting for Love Recap
Chen Qi asked his subordinate about Shi Dachun's recent situation. Hearing that Shi Dachun had recently taken his wife to stroll in nearby alleys, and seeing the suffering civilians, he felt pity and shed tears, Chen Qi felt that someone too compassionate towards the people could not be used. He also instructed his subordinate to keep an eye on A Mai and report any movements promptly. Chang Yuqing's subordinate, Moyu, kept a close watch on A Mai.
Because of her excellent martial arts skills, A Mai couldn't shake off this informant at all. Chang Yuqing instructed her that if she was too bored, she could walk around in the courtyard, but absolutely not allowed to go outside the main gate. Shang Yizhi had already arrived at Shi Dachun's place to listen to his battle plan. It was not impossible to attack again and reclaim Yuzhou, but Chen Qi was very cunning, so utmost caution was required.
Once troops were dispatched, success must be absolutely certain. Shi Dachun personally came to see Chang Yuqing, deliberately making conversation to stall for time. Shang Yizhi secretly sneaked into Chang Yuqing's mansion to scout the guards, and happened to meet A Mai in the courtyard. Seeing A Mai dressed in women's clothing for the first time, Shang Yizhi's heart was stirred. He had never imagined that the person in his heart could be so beautiful and charming.
Shang Yizhi planned to take A Mai and escape, but Chang Yuqing's mansion was heavily guarded, making escape nearly impossible. A Mai told Shang Yizhi to go back first; she had a plan and would definitely make a big stir soon. A Mai proposed to Chang Yuqing that she wanted to marry him. Chang Yuqing gladly agreed.
Hearing that A Mai set the wedding venue at Ning Shou Residence, Chang Yuqing immediately understood the general idea and also took A Mai to buy jewelry everywhere. A Mai specifically chose sharp gold hairpins to wear on her head, but Chang Yuqing exchanged the gold hairpins for wooden ones, not allowing A Mai to dislike them, insisting that this was the first gift he gave her and could not be refused.
Shang Yizhi told Shi Dachun the news that Chang Yuqing would be getting married in the next few days. Shi Dachun felt this was a good opportunity to strike and told his subordinate to prepare well to kill Chen Qi with one sword at that time. Shang Yizhi hesitated a little upon hearing Shi Dachun's methods, as A Mai was still at the wedding, and it would be troublesome if stray arrows accidentally injured A Mai.
Shi Dachun reminded him to consider the overall situation, as a single woman was insignificant compared to the people of Yuzhou city. The wedding day arrived soon. Chen Qi personally went to deliver the congratulatory gift. Shi Dachun had not yet arrived, but the auspicious time had come, and the wedding had to proceed. Chen Qi was pushed to the position of the senior elder and received the kowtow of the newlyweds.
As soon as he was seated, A Mai held a dagger to Chen Qi's neck. Chang Yuqing had already stationed his troops near the wedding venue and quickly occupied Chen Qi's General's Residence. Chang Yuqing ordered his subordinates to tie up all of Chen Qi's men and then give A Mai ample time to question Chen Qi. A Mai asked who the people who killed her parents that day were.
Chen Qi didn't want to say, and even told A Mai to let go of the matter. How could the hatred for killing her father be so easily abandoned? Chen Qi couldn't stand it anymore and confessed that it was the Xuanwu Army from Shengdu, which was the court's army. A Mai's hand gripping the dagger began to tremble. Chang Yuqing knew that A Mai couldn't do it, so he comforted her by saying that killing Chen Qi was useless.
He would keep a close eye on him and could send Chen Qi's head over anytime. Shi Dachun's men suddenly surrounded the entire General's Residence. The whole process was unexpected. Everyone else went to break through and attack the ambushers. Only A Mai and Chang Yuqing were left in the room.
A Mai told Chang Yuqing that the reason Shi Dachun could counter-attack the General's Residence so quickly was because there was a secret passage in the General's Residence that only Shi Dachun knew about. They didn't need to surround it from the outside at all; they could breach the interior in a very short time. Chang Yuqing asked A Mai to complete the wedding ceremony.
A Mai looked into his eyes and said that it was a setup from the beginning, and she had never liked him. Chang Yuqing tried to remain calm and told A Mai to celebrate the successful plot against Chen Qi. Chang Yuqing picked up the nearby wine and drank it down. As he left, he instructed A Mai to drink this cup of wine, and from then on, they were even.
