Go Princess, Go! Episode 23 Recap
> Go Princess, Go! Recap
Zhang Pengpeng came to see Qi Sheng and told him that she had already met Jiang Yingyue, who was using the alias Su Xiaorou. Qi Sheng asked Zhang Pengpeng what she had talked about with her. Zhang Pengpeng only said it was an old acquaintance meeting and exchanging a few pleasantries. Seeing that Zhang Pengpeng was not jealous, Qi Sheng felt a little uneasy.
Inside Daming Palace, Lv Li, as the head maid of the Empress's palace, was critical of Jiang Yingyue, who was using the alias Su Xiaorou, making her fan her and pour water for her. To get back at Lv Li, Jiang Yingyue put soapberry powder and saliva in Lv Li's tea, but unexpectedly, her attempt to harm others backfired on herself. Zhang Pengpeng pretended to be gentle and virtuous in front of Qi Sheng, but Qi Sheng was not happy.
She personally made durian porridge for Qi Sheng. Qi Sheng showed no emotion, but he actually liked drinking it very much. Yang Yu won a battle in Yunxi, and Qi Sheng was overjoyed. Zhang Pengpeng believed that Qi Sheng's indifference towards her was because of Jiang Yingyue. Qi Sheng came to visit the Grand Empress Dowager and frankly stated that he and the Empress were drifting further apart.
To reconcile the Emperor and Empress, the Grand Empress Dowager decided to help them by staging a play to make Zhang Pengpeng jealous of Jiang Yingyue, thereby narrowing the distance between Zhang Pengpeng and Qi Sheng. At the banquet, Zhao Wang, dressed in green, and the eunuchs performed a peacock dance, which looked very vulgar and disgusting. The Emperor attended the banquet with Madam Jiang (Jiang Yingyue) in elaborate attire, sparking discussions among the concubines.
Qi Sheng formally introduced Jiang Yingyue. Zhao Wang did not want to see his ex-wife and pretended to have a twisted neck halfway through the dance, while Lv Li was very jealous of this. Zhao Wang expressed to Zhang Pengpeng that he had a good impression of Lv Li and stated that he no longer had any lingering feelings for his ex-wife. Zhao Wang reminded Zhang Pengpeng again to win over Qi Sheng.
He believed that Jiang Yingyue and Qi Sheng were together more out of habit than love, and that the person Qi Sheng truly liked was Zhang Pengpeng. Zhang Pengpeng decided to use Qi Sheng's affection for her to achieve great things, and she resolved to do her best to win back Qi Sheng's heart.
Zhang Pengpeng came to Daming Palace to deliver durian soup to Qi Sheng, drove away Jiang Yingyue, and even said that she would take meticulous care of the Emperor. Qi Sheng deliberately brought up Jiang Yingyue's matter, wanting to make Zhang Pengpeng jealous, but Zhang Pengpeng did not understand Qi Sheng's true intention. Tired from grinding ink, Zhang Pengpeng fell asleep at her desk and was gently carried to bed by Qi Sheng.
Everyone in the palace knew that the Empress had stayed overnight at Xingsheng Palace and that the Emperor had overslept and missed the morning court. Jiang Yingyue was very jealous, and the concubines also discussed the deep affection between the Emperor and Empress. Even Jiu Wang couldn't keep his composure.
