One and Only Episode 3 Recap
> One and Only Recap
Prince Ping Qin came to the study to find Zhou Shengchen, but unexpectedly saw Shiyi, mistakenly taking her for a woman Zhou Shengchen was hiding. It wasn't until Zhou Shengchen appeared that the misunderstanding was cleared up. However, the misunderstanding wasn't just with Prince Ping Qin, but also with the people and the royal army of Xizhou city.
Only then did Zhou Shengchen realize his actions were inappropriate, and he planned to take Shiyi out to meet the royal army tomorrow. The next day, Zhou Shengchen took Shiyi up the city wall and reviewed the troops with her, which was also considered a formal announcement of Shiyi's identity as his disciple. Looking at the thousands of soldiers below the city wall, Shiyi's heart surged, and she admired Zhou Shengchen even more. Shiyi followed Zhou Shengchen to study.
On this day, Shiyi couldn't help but doze off. After she fell asleep, she obediently leaned on Zhou Shengchen. Zhou Shengchen supported Shiyi. This scene was seen by Xie Chong, who discreetly moved away. Zhou Shengchen couldn't explain clearly, but facing the sleeping Shiyi, he could only wrap her in a fox fur and carry her back to her room to sleep. This scene was seen by Zhou Tianxing and Hong Xiaoyu on the road.
The two were Shiyi's second senior brother and senior sister, respectively. Feng Qiao didn't understand why Zhou Shengchen wrapped Shiyi in a fox fur. Xie Yun immediately understood that Zhou Shengchen was avoiding suspicion, adhering to the principle that men and women should not touch closely. The next day, Shiyi woke up and was reminded by the maidservant Cheng Xi that she had accidentally fallen asleep in the study last night.
To reflect on herself, Shiyi locked herself in her room, neither eating nor drinking, and copied books. Hong Xiaoyu was worried that Shiyi would starve and immediately asked Zhou Shengchen to see Shiyi when he returned. Zhou Shengchen came to advise Shiyi, telling her to come out of the courtyard to eat first. Afterwards, Zhou Shengchen asked Xie Chong about Shiyi's aphasia.
Xie Chong believed that the root cause of Shiyi's aphasia was in her heart, and a heart ailment needed a heart medicine. In the palace, Liu Hui secretly hid a secret letter from others framing the Empress Dowager. When the Empress Dowager found out about this letter, she was greatly angered. Liu Zixing wanted to shield Liu Hui from the fault, but the Empress Dowager subjected Liu Zixing to twenty strokes of the rod.
The punishment by rod almost took half of Liu Zixing's life. Liu Zixing was granted the title of Prince Guangling, but he walked on thin ice in the palace. He deeply knew that only by not competing, not thinking, and not snatching could one survive in the palace. Liu Hui came to visit Liu Zixing and brought him a portrait of Shiyi, saying that this was his future Crown Princess.
Looking at the extraordinarily beautiful woman in front of him, Liu Zixing's heart stirred. Shiyi's birthday was approaching. Both the palace and the Cui clan sent congratulatory gifts. Zhou Shengchen also presented his congratulatory gift; he gave Shiyi the seals used by the surrendered military generals. As a general, Zhou Shengchen was about to go to the battlefield, but now with Shiyi in his mansion, he was a little worried.
Shiyi did not know martial arts and was frail, so she naturally could not go to the battlefield with them. Therefore, Zhou Shengchen came to find Shiyi and told her that he was leaving. He would be leading troops outside for eight or nine months a year, and Shiyi had to get used to it. Shiyi knew Zhou Shengchen's important duty and only urged him to send back victory reports.
Zhou Shengchen agreed to Shiyi's request, and from then on, the royal army would only return with victory reports. On the day the army set out, Shiyi watched Zhou Shengchen and her senior brothers and sisters leave by herself, praying inwardly for them, hoping they would return safely soon. Shiyi learned that Zhou Shengchen had returned victorious. She happily came to the study but only saw her senior brother Zhou Tianxing.
From Zhou Tianxing, Shiyi learned that Zhou Shengchen was injured in the military camp. She nervously prepared to go to the military camp to see Zhou Shengchen. Zhou Tianxing could not dissuade Shiyi and had no choice but to bring Shiyi to the military camp. Shiyi and Zhou Shengchen had not seen each other for a year. Upon seeing Zhou Shengchen, Shiyi's eyes couldn't help but turn red.
While the army was still fighting, Hong Xiaoyu and Cui Feng each had their own tasks. Shiyi was also prepared to stay in the military camp to take care of Zhou Shengchen. This time, Zhou Shengchen was hit by a poisoned arrow. Shiyi wanted to personally attend to Zhou Shengchen, but Zhou Shengchen told Shiyi to go back to the tent to rest. Shiyi could not rest.
Disregarding Zhou Shengchen's order, she only begged the military doctor to give her the medicine, and she came to bring the medicine to Zhou Shengchen. Zhou Shengchen was already asleep. Shiyi could not speak, but she kept holding Zhou Shengchen, wanting to wake him up. Zhou Shengchen was highly vigilant and fiercely pinned Shiyi under him with a move, only then seeing clearly the person in front of him. The medicine spilled all over the ground.
Shiyi hurriedly came to find the military doctor, asking him to decoct another bowl of medicine for Zhou Shengchen. After Zhou Shengchen drank the medicine, Shiyi refused to leave no matter what she was told. She stayed in Zhou Shengchen's tent, looking at Zhou Shengchen with great joy.
