To Get Her Episode 15 Recap
> To Get Her Recap
Lin Zhen'er, using a makeshift string-and-cup phone, communicated with Tu Siyi from a distance, urging him to accept Murong Qianyue's invitation for an outing. She didn't voice her inner reluctance, but instead emphasized that a good relationship with Murong Qianyue would strengthen ties between Huanyue State and Chuxing State, earn him favor with the Emperor, and pave his way to the imperial prince title, even suggesting marriage as a means to achieve this.
Tu Siyi, having recently spent time learning cake-making with Murong Qianyue, initially misinterpreted Lin Zhen'er's words as jealousy. He became angry when she suggested marrying for the throne, emphasizing that his actions were not for power but driven by his sincere feelings for her and to make her life better.
Lin Zhen'er, however, feigned indifference, claiming her unwavering pursuit of power meant she did not care if he married other women, and threatened to dislike him more if he didn't follow her advice. Tu Siyi found Lin Zhen'er crying, not knowing the reason for her distress. He apologized, assuring her that his efforts were solely to protect her, not for the imperial prince title or the throne. He asked her to stop being upset, and they reconciled.
Later, Tu Siyi approached Shen Daifu, hoping he could use his disguise technique to impersonate him for the date with Murong Qianyue. Shen Daifu initially refused, citing the severe consequences of impersonating royalty and his principled stance against deception. However, upon learning the date was with Murong Qianyue, Shen Daifu's interest was immediately piqued. He quickly agreed, dismissing the risk of beheading as merely a small sacrifice for their decade-long brotherhood.
Tu Siyi instructed Shen Daifu not to imitate him but to simply be himself, promising him access to the best medical books in the imperial library as a reward. Shen Daifu then skillfully transformed himself to perfectly resemble Tu Siyi, even mimicking his voice. Unbeknownst to them, the Second Prince had already investigated the planned outing location, Cang Lan Mountain. He arranged for a fake bandit to ambush them, intending to stage a heroic rescue to impress Murong Qianyue.
Shen Daifu, disguised as Tu Siyi, embarked on the outing with Murong Qianyue. Murong Qianyue admired the scenic beauty of Cang Lan Mountain in poetic terms, but Shen Daifu, with his medical background, viewed the landscape through a different lens. He identified what she thought were dandelions as "Nose-cut Grasses," useful for treating hemorrhoids, much to her bewilderment.
He then candidly described a rather gruesome method for creating animal specimens, using a rabbit as an example, further highlighting his profound interest in medicine. Despite his peculiar observations, Murong Qianyue was surprisingly captivated by his knowledgeable and passionate demeanor, seeing him as someone dedicated to the welfare of the people. During their outing, a real bandit unexpectedly attacked, instead of the fake one arranged by the Second Prince.
The Second Prince, still intending his heroic entrance, intervened, but was genuinely wounded by the actual bandit. Shen Daifu swiftly stepped in, paying off the bandit with money and then tearing his own clothes to expertly bandage the Second Prince's wound. This display of medical skill and compassion deeply impressed Murong Qianyue. After the outing, Murong Qianyue expressed her newfound admiration to her father, the Emperor of Huanyue State.
She spoke highly of "Tu Siyi's" kind, sensible nature, musical talent, and overall suitability as a candidate for the Chuxing State's imperial prince, requesting her father to propose a marriage alliance between them. Her father, pleased with her choice, agreed to discuss the matter with the Chuxing Emperor. Meanwhile, Tu Siyi was eager to hear from Shen Daifu, expecting Murong Qianyue to have been put off by Shen Daifu's "stiff" and "boring" persona.
He was dismayed to learn that Murong Qianyue actually desired another date in Yuan Ming Valley. Tu Siyi angrily accused Shen Daifu of being selfish and making his situation with Murong Qianyue even more complicated. Shen Daifu, equally upset, confessed his genuine feelings for Murong Qianyue, declaring he couldn't deliberately make someone he liked detest him, even when impersonating Tu Siyi. Their argument intensified, with Shen Daifu asserting he could no longer be Tu Siyi's subordinate, only his friend.
A disheartened Tu Siyi later encountered Lin Zhen'er. She calmly reiterated her stance that he should cultivate a closer relationship with Murong Qianyue, reminding him that in their world, love was a luxury. Tu Siyi was deeply hurt, recalling how she had once taught him that love was simple. Despite their heated exchange, Tu Siyi and Shen Daifu played a ball game the following day.
Tu Siyi accidentally sustained an injury, and Shen Daifu, ever the dedicated physician, competently reset his bone. Suddenly, the Emperor summoned Tu Siyi to the palace to discuss matters of governance. The Emperor emphasized that a true ruler makes the right decisions at the right time, then commanded Tu Siyi to marry Murong Qianyue to secure lasting peace with Huanyue State. He granted Tu Siyi half a day to consider.
Overwhelmed, Tu Siyi rushed back to his residence, intending to elope with Lin Zhen'er to escape the unwanted marriage. He bid emotional farewells to his brother and Shen Daifu, instructing Shen Daifu to care for Siya. Upon reaching Lin Zhen'er at the entrance of the residence, Tu Siyi revealed his plan to elope. However, Lin Zhen'er refused, arguing that all their past efforts would be in vain if they fled.
She pretended to be consumed by ambition, reaffirming her desire for him to become the imperial prince and claiming she was indifferent to him marrying another woman. Heartbroken by her perceived coldness, Tu Siyi refused to marry Murong Qianyue. Tu Siyi's repeated defiance greatly angered the Emperor of Huanyue State. Realizing Tu Siyi's genuine reluctance, Murong Qianyue proactively requested the Chuxing Emperor to organize a Competition in which her partner could be chosen.
As punishment for disobeying the imperial edict, Tu Siyi was demoted and exiled to guard the Dragon-protecting mountain range for two years, forbidden from returning to the capital or bringing any servants. He accepted the decree.
