> In the Name of Blossom Recap
He Weifang led the fleet further south. One day, while walking down the street with Chuan Yu, someone suddenly snatched the love token fragrance pouch from her waist. He Weifang immediately ordered Chuan Yu to chase after the thief. Just as Chuan Yu left, He Weifang was surrounded by three rough men. She heard that they were from Zhang County and had come to demand evidence.
He Weifang quickly found an excuse and seized the opportunity to escape when they weren’t paying attention. During the time Jiang Zhangyang was not by her side, He Weifang had learned many skills on her own. Now that Chuan Yu had fallen for a diversion tactic, He Weifang had to come up with a way to escape. She climbed over walls, moved across rooftops, and blocked the attackers’ path with a bamboo pole.
She used a slingshot to make noise in one direction while moving in another and took advantage of anything around her. He Weifang was extremely nervous and was preparing to slip away when suddenly, a person grabbed her arm. She was about to strike them in defense when a familiar voice rang out—it was Jiang Zhangyang! He Weifang widened her eyes. Was this really Jiang Zhangyang, the one she had been thinking of day and night?
He looked the same as always, with the same physique and appearance, and his voice had not changed. And his skin and face were real and tangible. He Weifang was overwhelmed with joy and tears, realizing that Jiang Zhangyang was still alive! Jiang Zhangyang explained that Prince Ning had deliberately wounded him in a spot near his chest to make it look like he had died, so that he could find the remnants of the underground party through Jiang Zhangyang.
However, he had been spared his life. After regaining consciousness, Jiang Zhangyang endured various tortures by Prince Ning, who wanted him to write down the list of the emperor’s underground agents. Jiang Zhangyang pretended to cooperate while secretly signaling the underground agents, allowing them to hide until the next call to action. Jiang Zhangyang took He Weifang to his usual hideout. He Weifang clung to his arm, smiling foolishly as she looked up at him.
There was nothing in the world that could excite her more than this moment, nothing that made her want to keep time still. Her lover, the one she longed for, was now healthy and standing beside her. He Weifang knew Jiang Zhangyang had endured much torment at Prince Ning’s hands. She forced him to remove his shirt, and seeing his chest covered in scars, He Weifang cried again from the pain in her heart.
Jiang Zhangyang had finally escaped from Prince Ning’s clutches. He immediately found many substitutes and placed them in various locations. He Weifang gave him all the supplies she had gathered over the years to support the Hedong army, assuring him that he could focus on his work without worry. Jiang Zhangyang used his influence to incite local uprisings, causing instability within the court.
Prince Ning was unable to focus on his plot to usurp the throne, even though he had already prepared the imperial robe. With rebellions springing up everywhere, Prince Ning actively sought the emperor’s permission to lead the army himself. The emperor, fully aware of Prince Ning’s ambitions, could only act as a puppet, as military power was firmly in Prince Ning’s hands. This time, Prince Ning set out for battle with Liu Chang. Jiang Zhangyang donned his armor, preparing to lead many soldiers into battle.
