One and Only Episode 10 Recap
> One and Only Recap
Cui Shiyi was moving the books from the academy, preparing to move them all to the library in Xizhou. On the other side, Zhou Shengchen and Xiao Yan were drinking together at a banquet, and they were also happy to learn that Cui Shiyi was returning to Xizhou soon. Cui Feng had to leave for Shouyang due to state affairs; he couldn't see Cui Shiyi off, he only told her to be careful with everything.
And Cui Shiyi also felt pained seeing the increasingly thin Cui Feng. It turned out that the Empress Dowager had been urging Princess Xinghua to have a child, but Xinghua was unwilling, so she had been arguing and insisting that Cui Feng take a daughter of the Qi family as a concubine to bear a son. In Xizhou, Zhou Shengchen met with Liu Changshan.
Now that Liu Changshan had been defeated by him, he simply sent Liu Changshan back to the palace for Liu Hui to handle. Cui Shiyi set off to return to Xizhou. She stayed overnight at Qinglong Temple. Unable to sleep in the middle of the night, she came out only to pray to the Buddha, asking for blessings for Zhou Shengchen to return victorious soon. Just then, a soldier desperately came to see Cui Shiyi.
He knew that Cui Shiyi was Zhou Shengchen's disciple, and he only begged her to save Yongcheng. Yongcheng was under siege, the King of Beihai refused to send troops, and Zhou Shengchen was not on his fiefdom. Cui Shiyi had three thousand soldiers with her, and she didn't hesitate to take these three thousand soldiers to Yongcheng, instructing Xiyang to stay at the temple and wait for Zhou Shengchen.
Cui Shiyi and the general rushed to Yongcheng, and unexpectedly found that Yongcheng had been saved, and the person who saved it was a general named General Gan. General Gan and Cui Shiyi climbed the city wall together. They saw dense enemy troops rushing to attack the city. Cui Shiyi and General Gan's soldiers were no match for the enemy, and a bloody battle broke out.
On the other side, Zhou Shengchen learned that Yongcheng was besieged and Cui Shiyi was there. He quickly arranged for reinforcements and took the cavalry ahead. In Yongcheng, Cui Shiyi's third senior brother led troops to reinforce, but they were still no match for the enemy. His leg was injured in battle, and General Gan also sacrificed himself for the country. Standing on the city wall, Cui Shiyi watched General Gan sacrifice himself with her own eyes.
Her eyes turned red. Fortunately, Zhou Shengchen arrived with the cavalry in time. Zhou Shengchen fought a hundred enemies alone, killed the enemy troops, and saved Yongcheng. Yongcheng was saved, and Cui Shiyi and Zhou Shengchen met again after two years. Cui Shiyi just cried and threw herself into Zhou Shengchen's arms.
She was sad because of General Gan's death, but Zhou Shengchen gently stroked her back, saying she had done very well, and that it was he who was late. These two years, Zhou Shengchen had been keeping the surrender seal for Cui Shiyi to use on the surrendered army. Only today did Cui Shiyi realize how hard it was to obtain this surrender seal. Yongcheng was saved.
Zhou Shengchen prepared to leave twenty thousand troops here to assist Yang Shao, but Yang Shao was disheartened with Bei Chen. He planned to leave this place, as the royal army would guard it. Zhou Shengchen became more wary of Yang Shao, and only ordered people to keep an eye on Yang Shao to see who he would ultimately defect to. Xie Yun narrowly escaped death on the battlefield, but found it difficult to ride a horse again.
Cui Shiyi came to deliver food to Xie Yun. Xie Yun mentioned Xiao Yan, who was following Zhou Shengchen. He still didn't quite trust Xiao Yan. Choosing to trust Xiao Yan was Zhou Shengchen's decision. Cui Shiyi didn't mention this matter much, only feeling a little guilty for not opening the city gate today. Xie Yun only said that Cui Shiyi did the right thing today; if the city gate had been opened, the city would have been breached.
Afterwards, Zhou Shengchen came to see Xie Yun. He avoided Cui Shiyi and told Xie Yun that he would no longer be able to ride a war horse. Both of them felt heavy-hearted. Zhou Shengchen guarded the city for three days, and Xie Yun was not seen for three days either. Cui Shiyi was constantly worried about the two of them in her heart. Unexpectedly, one wave had not subsided when another arose. Yang Shao held Feng Qiao hostage.
Cui Shiyi regretted saving Yang Shao only to be held hostage by him. Yang Shao forced Feng Qiao and her group to hand over Liu Changshan and prepare a carriage for Yang Shao.
