My Journey To You Episode 14 Recap
> My Journey To You Recap
Faced with Gong Shangjue’s interrogation, Shangguan Qian didn’t know how to explain. The guards found a pair of shoes in her room with bloodstains and porcelain shards on the soles. Gong Shangjue suspected she was Wuming and ordered her imprisoned for interrogation. In the council chamber, many doubted that Shangguan Qian was Wuming. Gong Shangjue expressed his suspicion—her martial arts didn’t match Wuming’s level. Instead, Ming Wuji seemed suspicious, possibly staging the whole incident.
Elder Feng questioned how they explained the stealth clothes found in Shangguan Qian’s room. Gong Shangjue said to wait until he finished interrogating her. As the Sword Wielder, Gong Ziyu was punished for taking a woman outside the Gong residence and was confined in the Elders’ Hall. He had Jin Fan relay to Yun Weishan not to worry about him. Yun Weishan did feel guilty and was even more shocked upon hearing that Shangguan Qian was Wuming.
If Shangguan Qian were exposed, Yun Weishan’s own situation would also be in danger. At that moment, Shangguan Qian, tortured by two rounds of punishment, hung there covered in wounds. Gong Shangjue pressured her with harsher threats. Pretending to be terrified, Shangguan Qian asked if she would be spared if she told the truth. Gong Shangjue didn’t promise, only saying he wouldn’t let her suffer. After some thought, Shangguan Qian revealed her secret.
She wasn’t actually the young lady of the Shangguan family, but a survivor of the Gushan Sect. Years ago, Gushan was wiped out by Wufeng and Qingfeng. She alone survived and was later adopted by the Shangguan family. To repay their kindness and seek protection, she agreed to join the Gong residence. She said she had a blood feud with Wufeng for killing her father.
Upon hearing Gong Shangjue’s suspicion of Ming Wuji, she had gone to investigate and witnessed Ming Wuji staging the scene. Her injuries were self-inflicted. Gong Shangjue was half-convinced and tested her with poisoned wine. Shangguan Qian asked to be released, saying she had proof she was from Gushan. Gong Shangjue saw the birthmark on her neck and finally believed her. Gong Shangjue told all this to the now-recovering Gong Yuanzheng.
Gong Yuanzheng still found Shangguan Qian suspicious, as well as Ming Wuji. Just then, the guards reported that Ming Wuji had regained consciousness. Gong Shangjue went to “visit” her—ostensibly to check on her health, but in truth to probe for details. Gong Ziyu visited Ming Wuji, saying last night’s assassin Wuming was targeting him, and apologized for alarming his aunt.
Ming Wuji said at her age it didn’t matter, but Gong Ziyu carried the Gong family’s future and bore a heavy burden. Then Gong Shangjue arrived and questioned what had really happened. Gong Ziyu also wanted clarity. Ming Wuji’s account contradicted Shangguan Qian’s. Gong Shangjue couldn’t tell who was lying. Yun Weishan spoke up for Ming Wuji, saying the wound on Elder Yue didn’t match Ming Wuji’s soft sword length—proving she wasn’t the killer.
Gong Shangjue keenly picked up a flaw in Yun Weishan’s words, asking how she knew the wound’s length. Thankfully, Ming Wuji said she had told Yun Weishan, resolving the issue. Gong Shangjue then reported the entire situation to the elders, clearing Shangguan Qian of suspicion. The elders handed her over to Gong Shangjue. As he was about to leave, he overheard the elders discussing activating Wuliang Fire to intimidate Wufeng. He quickly objected, saying the time hadn’t come.
Gong Ziyu asked what Wuliang Fire was. Gong Shangjue scoffed, saying he should first pass the Three Realm Trial. Shangguan Qian only had superficial injuries. Yun Weishan visited her and brought a ginseng root, but even the box was held for inspection by Gong Yuanzheng. Yun Weishan secretly passed the medicine to Shangguan Qian and loudly acted out a scene, while secretly exchanging information—sharing that Ming Wuji might be Wuming. Gong Ziyu was about to enter the second trial.
Jin Fan asked if he had any instructions. Gong Ziyu asked him to protect Ming Wuji in case Gong Shangjue tried anything. They mentioned Steward Jia, who had a son in old age. The boy fell seriously ill two years ago but was cured by a Gong family doctor. Though he lived, he became strange and suddenly possessed great strength. Gong Ziyu told Jin Fan to keep investigating. Gong Ziyu and Yun Weishan were blindfolded and brought to the wild.
Young Master Yue personally received them. They boarded a boat to the trial site. Though everything seemed calm, the danger was real. Shangguan Qian struggled to drink the medicine when Gong Yuanzheng suddenly appeared, accusing her of feigning pity to gain Gong Shangjue’s sympathy. He said her brows and eyes screamed “Wufeng. ” Just then, Gong Shangjue arrived and personally fed her the medicine. Gong Yuanzheng watched, seething with jealousy. After leaving Shangguan Qian’s room, Gong Shangjue comforted Gong Yuanzheng.
A guard reported the thief from the Lantern Festival night was under Zi Yi’s orders. Zi Yi’s real name was Ye Xiao. She was sent to the Human Market, a place for the amusement of the wealthy. Her father and brother died there, and she was sold to Wan Hua Tower. Such a background aroused Gong Shangjue’s suspicion. Gong Ziyu asked Young Master Yue about the second trial. He said to wait until they landed.
As soon as the boat docked, his attendant attacked Gong Ziyu while he himself fought Yun Weishan. Gong Ziyu easily defeated his opponent with the Three Snow Styles. Young Master Yue used the same moves as Ming Wuji, Shangguan Qian, and Han Yasi to subdue Yun Weishan.
