Go Princess, Go! Episode 26 Recap
> Go Princess, Go! Recap
Yang Yu severely lectured his son Yang Yan, but Zhang Lingling's pleas on the side were unsuccessful. The Ninth Prince was smitten with the sachet Zhang Pengpeng gave him. Zhao Wang came to find the Ninth Prince and just happened to witness this scene. Zhao Wang wondered how the Ninth Prince still had the mood to drink tea. The Ninth Prince stated that he would meet all changes with changelessness. Zhao Wang left, unconvinced.
The ministers reported to Qi Sheng about the Ninth Prince's collusion with his cronies, presenting numerous pieces of evidence against him and tearfully demanding that Qi Sheng severely punish him. Qi Sheng stated that he would make his own decision regarding the Ninth Prince's case. Zhao Wang reminded the Ninth Prince that it was inconvenient for him to meet with Yang Yan and Zhang Pengpeng.
The Ninth Prince replied that he had no choice, as it was too late to do anything. Zhang Pengpeng's father and uncle were dismissed from their posts for investigation. Fan Shi and Lv Li came to her, crying and complaining. Zhang Pengpeng understood this was Qi Sheng's displeasure with her lies, and she decided to bear all responsibility herself.
Zhang Pengpeng put on plain clothes and went to Daming Palace to find Qi Sheng, sincerely admitting the mistakes she had made. She hoped Qi Sheng could give her a chance to correct her flaws. However, Qi Sheng clearly understood that Zhang Pengpeng's meekness was due to circumstances. Zhang Pengpeng tearfully pleaded with Qi Sheng to forgive Yang Yan, the Ninth Prince, Zhao Wang, and the others. Qi Sheng's heart softened as Zhang Pengpeng cried.
Zhang Pengpeng said that the Emperor was the one she could rely on the most. Qi Sheng dealt lightly with the Ninth Prince and the others, but humiliated Zhao Wang. Zhao Wang was in a bad mood, and the Ninth Prince and Yang Yan came to find him. All three believed their fates were entirely in Qi Sheng's hands, which made them feel very uncomfortable. The Emperor and Yang Yu's plan was still underway in secret.
Yang Yu didn't understand why Qi Sheng hadn't taken down the Ninth Prince and the others in one fell swoop. Qi Sheng told him that he must first stabilize the court situation at the moment. Zhang Pengpeng was not optimistic about her situation. She hated that her fate was in Qi Sheng's hands. The previous events made her even more determined to solidify her alliance with the Ninth Prince and the others.
Zhang Pengpeng was practicing Thai martial arts in Xingsheng Palace. The Ninth Prince found an excuse to bring her a gift. He gave Zhang Pengpeng the love knot he carried with him, saying that even if he died in battle, his heart would be with Zhang Pengpeng. Zhang Pengpeng said her feelings were the same as his. Eunuch Qiang came to Xingsheng Palace, bringing the Emperor's oral command, inviting Zhang Pengpeng to meet him in the Daming Palace study.
Qi Sheng gave Zhang Pengpeng a large pile of books, but Zhang Pengpeng misunderstood that he wanted to give her a hug. Qi Sheng said he would teach Zhang Pengpeng everything he had learned in his life. Although Zhang Pengpeng was reluctant to study, she was still very happy to be constantly by Qi Sheng's side. Qi Sheng taught Zhang Pengpeng calligraphy. However, Zhang Pengpeng's thoughts drifted towards Qi Sheng; she could no longer conceal her affection for him, but Qi Sheng still insisted on keeping his distance from her.
