Fighting for Love Episode 24 Recap
> Fighting for Love Recap
The Emperor sent out many spies to constantly monitor Shang Yizhi. At this time, the spies sent back news that in addition to their own people, Prince Kang's people were also watching Shang Yizhi. The Emperor was very pleased, thinking that Prince Kang was the most considerate son and was now helping his father alleviate worries.
He immediately feigned illness externally, temporarily letting the Crown Prince oversee the state, and ordered that as soon as Shang Yizhi returned to Shengdu, he should be immediately notified to come see him. Soon, Prince Kang took the initiative to find Shang Yizhi, confessing that the Emperor was sharpening his knives in the palace and that wooing Shang Yizhi could secure his allegiance and also protect him completely.
The military advisors had previously revealed this to Shang Yizhi, and indeed everything was within their predictions, but Shang Yizhi chose the Crown Prince. The last time the enemy troops were at the city gates, the Crown Prince put aside personal grudges and past grievances, allowing Shang Yizhi to send troops to Beimou. Seeing that he was a man of long-term vision and broad-mindedness, the military advisors also agreed with Shang Yizhi's choice.
For safety during this period, Shang Yizhi only brought a few personal guards and A Mai when he returned to Shengdu. Upon returning home, Eldest Princess Shenghua was very happy to see her son. The palace weather had been unpredictable these days, and it was truly fortunate that he could return alive.
When the Emperor heard that Shang Yizhi had returned to Shengdu with only a few attendants and that the Qingyu army was still outside, he could only temporarily wait and see how things developed. The Crown Prince held a welcoming reception for Shang Yizhi.
Prince Kang was also present, but he deliberately tried to sow discord between the Crown Prince and Shang Yizhi, saying that the Crown Prince incredibly put aside past grievances, when he had clearly gone to Yuzhou last time with an imperial decree to supervise an execution, and now was treating him with courtesy. The scene immediately became awkward. Fortunately, the Crown Prince's son Qi Yu happened to pass by while reciting a text. His clear recitation was very timely.
The content of the classic superficially discussed the way of ruler and minister, but in reality, it advised against brothers despising each other. Prince Kang was very embarrassed and left directly after sitting for a short while. Shang Yizhi and A Mai stated their original intentions at the Crown Prince's mansion. The Crown Prince had previously heard that Prince Kang was trying to win over Shang Yizhi.
Now, the strength of the Qingyu army could not be underestimated, and whoever could win Shang Yizhi over would have half the country secured. Hearing Shang Yizhi express his loyalty now was exactly what he wanted. Shang Yizhi hoped that the Crown Prince could strongly protect A Mai and ensure her safe return to Yuzhou so that she could assist him in the future. The Crown Prince thought for a moment and immediately had an idea.
He appointed A Mai as Qi Yu's tutor, which would also give him more chances of winning in the future. When the day came to meet the Emperor, the Emperor superficially praised them highly, but his words in the conversation were quite sharp. Shang Yizhi responded carefully. The Emperor said he wanted to give A Mai and Shang Yizhi a reward. After much deliberation, Shang Yizhi bravely proposed that he hoped Shi Dachun could be buried with a complete body.
A Mai, on the other hand, deliberately claimed that she wanted the Emperor to reward her with more silver so that if she had a chance to retire and return home in the future, she could live more comfortably. A Mai's request made the Emperor burst into laughter. He immediately ordered his subordinates to reward her with two thousand taels of silver and several mu of fertile land.
Taking advantage of this meeting with the Emperor, A Mai specifically mentioned wanting to check the roster of the Qingyu army. She was exceptionally excited after getting permission. Shang Yizhi didn't understand why A Mai wanted to see the army roster. A Mai told him that when her parents were killed, it was people from inside the palace who disguised themselves as Beimou troops, and now she wanted to find out the truth.
Shang Yizhi helped A Mai check the roster, but the people at the archives were always difficult in every way. A Mai and Shang Yizhi put in a lot of effort but did not succeed as they wished. They returned empty-handed and began speculating on the way back who was secretly obstructing them. After thinking about it, Prince Kang was the most suspected.
A Mai instructed Shang Yizhi to plant more of his own spies in Prince Kang's mansion so that they could take more precautions in the future. Prince Kang's mansion. When Prince Kang learned that Shang Yizhi had defected to the Crown Prince, he could no longer tolerate it. He decided to eliminate this thorn in his side, which would also win him some favor from the Emperor.
