Fighting for Love Episode 28 Recap
> Fighting for Love Recap
Eldest Princess Shenghua heard that Shang Yizhi had been seeing A Mai recently, so she sent her servants to summon A Mai to see her. Eldest Princess Shenghua personally brewed tea for A Mai. The two seemingly chatted casually. Eldest Princess Shenghua praised A Mai for surviving life-and-death situations with Shang Yizhi several times and wanted to reward her. A Mai's eyes were firm; she said she only wanted to avenge her father's death.
Eldest Princess Shenghua tried to persuade her to let go. A Mai understood Eldest Princess Shenghua's meaning. She clearly replied that she would find the real mastermind to take revenge. A Mai began planning the rebellion. The strategist had already prepared for the rebellion on the way with the Qingyu army, so all that was left was the final step of receiving the order to determine the time. Before, Shang Yizhi was hesitant and not fully confident.
Now with A Mai, he began to cheer up and carefully consider the attack routes and timing. After the Emperor's stroke, he began to reflect on the heavy sins he had committed. That day, Zeng Tai impeached Prince Kang. It was clear someone was instigating from behind the scenes. With no ministers around, he asked the eunuch if Zeng Tai's family had been found. The eunuch immediately knelt down and reported that they had all been killed.
The Emperor nodded and then ordered Eldest Princess Shenghua to see him. The Emperor deliberately feigned deep affection and reminisced about childhood scenes with Eldest Princess Shenghua. After a self-inflicted injury scheme, he pleaded with Eldest Princess Shenghua to help him complete one last thing. The Emperor deliberately pretended to be old and frail, saying he wanted to abdicate and let Shang Yizhi inherit the throne.
After Eldest Princess Shenghua returned, she immediately conspired with Shang Yizhi, wanting him to prepare for the rebellion as soon as possible. Regardless of the Emperor's trick, it was better to strike first. Shang Yizhi couldn't bear to leave A Mai. He didn't want to marry Prime Minister Lin's daughter and had no intention of rebelling. He even wanted to take A Mai back to Yuzhou so they could be together for a long time.
Eldest Princess Shenghua was dissatisfied with Shang Yizhi's focus on romance, thinking about how many people she had sacrificed along the way to raise him into adulthood, and now her son didn't even want the throne. Eldest Princess Shenghua quickly sent a message to arrange a meeting with Prime Minister Lin. When Prime Minister Lin heard that Eldest Princess Shenghua wanted to move the wedding date forward, he roughly understood.
Eldest Princess Shenghua specifically mentioned the matter between A Mai and Shang Yizhi. Prime Minister Lin agreed to move up his daughter's wedding date, while also urgently preparing to pave the way for Shang Yizhi. The Emperor asked Prime Minister Lin to draft an imperial decree. The content of the decree was to establish Shang Yizhi as the heir.
Prime Minister Lin knew the Emperor's thoughts were unpredictable, so he copied two copies of the decree, both stamped with the Emperor's great seal. Soon after, the Emperor asked Prime Minister Lin to return the imperial decree for establishing the heir. After reviewing the drafted decree, he specifically asked Prime Minister Lin if he knew the reason why he wanted the decree back. Prime Minister Lin naturally replied that he dared not speculate on the imperial will.
The Emperor deliberately said that if Qi Yu were to inherit the throne, being young and simple, he naturally couldn't compete with those with ill intentions. Prime Minister Lin pretended to suddenly understand, immediately knelt down, and kowtowed in gratitude for the Emperor's painstaking efforts. A Mai and Shang Yizhi had discussed that she would go to the palace first to assassinate the Emperor.
Shang Yizhi, to ensure the absolute safety of his beloved, specifically obtained a set of Dragon Chant Guard clothes and asked A Mai to change into the imperial guard's clothes that night. This way, the Emperor would mistake the Dragon Chant Guards, and the Qingyu army would come to rescue him, which would give A Mai more chances of success. After strategizing with Shang Yizhi, A Mai went to find Tang Shaoyi. The two were sworn brothers.
After A Mai fully revealed her plan, Tang Shaoyi understood that A Mai was seeking revenge for her father's death. He immediately stated his position, promising to do everything in his power to safely escort A Mai out of the palace.
