Untouchable Lovers Episode 11 Recap
> Untouchable Lovers Recap
Liu Chuyu returned to the princess's mansion, where she was surrounded at the entrance by He Ji, the imperial son-in-law, leading a large troop of soldiers. He said that the Emperor had summoned her to the palace. Liu Chuyu sensed something was wrong and, before entering the palace, instructed Liu Sang to inform Huan Yuan about her summons. Liu Chuyu saw Liu Ziye, who spoke with gentle concern. Unexpectedly, Liu Ziye suddenly questioned her why she had deceived him.
Tian Rujing and Yue Jiefai had told Liu Ziye the secret of the sachet. Liu Ziye resented his elder sister for not telling him the truth about the sachet, and refusing to listen to any of her explanations, he ordered her confined to the princess's mansion. Liu Chuyu encountered Tian Rujing before leaving the palace and questioned him about the sachet. Liu Chuyu did not understand the meaning behind Tian Rujing's actions.
Tian Rujing had always followed the Way of Heaven. He had given Liu Chuyu a chance before, but she had not managed to change Liu Ziye. Tian Rujing knew that Liu Chuyu was someone who would not resign herself to fate, so he had no choice but to expose the sachet matter, making her lose significant influence over Liu Ziye and stopping her from trying to alter the Way of Heaven. Liu Chuyu sneered repeatedly.
Tian Rujing's master had once made her wander aimlessly for the sake of the Way of Heaven, and now Tian Rujing was creating difficulties for her everywhere for the same reason—this damned Way of Heaven. Liu Chuyu was deeply bothered by Yue Jiefai and Tian Rujing revealing her secret to Liu Ziye, and she was very disappointed in Yue Jiefai.
However, from Yue Jiefai's perspective, as a royal guard and Tian Rujing's senior martial brother, he was compelled to act this way. He Ji had always resented Liu Chuyu for cuckolding him. Now that Liu Ziye and Liu Chuyu were estranged, He Ji was ordered to guard the princess's mansion and seized the opportunity to assert his authority over Liu Chuyu. Liu Chuyu naturally would not tolerate his behavior.
After all, she was the Emperor's biological sister; even if she was out of favor now, He Ji could not do as he pleased. Liu Chuyu still made He Ji furious, yet he could do nothing to her.
Regarding Liu Chuyu's current predicament, Rong Zhi offered her three suggestions: the best strategy was to kill Liu Ziye; the middle strategy was to find every possible way to appease Liu Ziye; and the worst strategy was for her to leave this place and protect herself. He advised her to choose the worst strategy. After leaving Rong Zhi, Liu Chuyu met Huan Yuan, who also advised her to leave this troubled land. Liu Chuyu's face was filled with internal conflict.
How could she not want a peaceful life? But she could not leave; if she left, what would become of the Liu clan's empire? Late at night, Hua Cuo suddenly broke into the Bright Jade Pavilion where Liu Chuyu resided and told her that Rong Zhi had suddenly vomited blood and fallen unconscious. When Liu Chuyu arrived, Rong Zhi's complexion was extremely poor. The doctor told her that to save Rong Zhi, water from Yingchuan was necessary.
However, Liu Chuyu was currently under house arrest, and no one could leave the princess's mansion. To send Rong Zhi to Yingchuan for treatment, they first had to remove He Ji, who was guarding the princess's mansion. Liu Chuyu invited He Ji to dinner that evening and instructed her personal maid, You Lan, to drug his wine. However, He Ji discovered You Lan placing the drug. He Ji, through threats and promises, believed he had turned her to his side.
That night, He Ji played along with Liu Chuyu, watching her succumb to the drug and fall unconscious. He Ji felt both love and hatred for Liu Chuyu, and after being cuckolded by her so many times, his resentment intensified. Just as he was about to strangle Liu Chuyu, she suddenly woke up. Liu Chuyu and You Lan had planned for He Ji to discover You Lan's poisoning; otherwise, he would not have eaten the meal with her so assuredly.
Liu Chuyu silently poisoned He Ji, but did not use a fatal dose, merely causing him to fall unconscious for two hours. In the dead of night, Mo Xiang came to Rong Zhi's bedside and fed him a pill. Rong Zhi immediately woke up. In fact, Rong Zhi's illness this time was intentional. Liu Chuyu was unwilling to leave, so he could only use this method to take her away, and he also needed to leave Jiankang.
Mo Xiang felt that since Liu Chuyu and Liu Ziye were biological siblings, Rong Zhi's actions were not worth it. Rong Zhi knew that he still resented Liu Chuyu over the matter of Fen Dai, but it was not Liu Chuyu's fault. Rong Zhi advised him not to transfer his anger and instructed him to do something for him. After making all preparations, Liu Chuyu went to see Rong Zhi.
Looking at his sleeping face, Liu Chuyu uncharacteristically spoke her true feelings. She told Rong Zhi that she was actually Zhu Que, and also Liu Chuxiu; this was the biggest secret in her heart. She shared it with Rong Zhi because she wanted to tell him that she truly loved him. Liu Chuyu lightly kissed Rong Zhi's forehead, then turned and went out to arrange other matters.
Liu Chuyu did not plan to return after this departure and intended to take everyone in the mansion who genuinely followed her with her. After she left, Rong Zhi slowly opened his eyes, his gaze full of shock, unsure if it was due to Liu Chuyu's sudden confession or her true identity. Liu Ziye was plagued by inner demons, unable to sleep peacefully day after day.
Rumors of an emperor emerging from Xiangzhong were still circulating, so Liu Ziye decided to embark on a southern tour to personally investigate the matter. This southern tour presented an opportunity. The Tianji Pavilion's people in the palace colluded with Liu Yu, the Prince of Xiangdong, whom Liu Ziye had imprisoned, and Jian'an Prince Liu Xiuren, planning to seize this chance to eliminate Liu Ziye. News of a haunting suddenly spread from Hualinyuan, where Yin Shuyi used to live.
Liu Ziye, fearful, decided to personally catch the ghost. At the same time, he ordered Liu Yu to be locked in a pig cage and summoned Liu Chuyu to the palace. Although he was angry that his elder sister had deceived him, at a crucial moment, he still felt secure with her by his side. Meanwhile, the night was as cool as water. In the forest, Wang Yizhi rescued Master Jiran.
Wang Yizhi sincerely apologized for having dragged Master Jiran into trouble earlier to leave a clue for Liu Chuyu. He simply hoped that Liu Chuyu could discover Rong Zhi's true face.
