Untouchable Lovers Episode 26 Recap
> Untouchable Lovers Recap
The children ate happily. Qing Yue went up to help but found most of the food was spoiled. That kind girl was named Hongxiu. She told Liu Chuyu that this used to be an orphanage set up by the Empress Dowager, specifically for adopting children who had no parents or were abandoned by their parents. However, later the Emperor abolished all the orphanages to raise military provisions.
Liu Chuyu watched these children, who still smiled innocently amidst their suffering, and couldn't help but cry. After returning, she took out her dowry, wanting to pawn it to help those children. When Liu Chuyu returned and packed her dowry, Rong Zhi asked the reason, but Liu Chuyu was unwilling to tell him. Rong Zhi had a headache over this.
Liu Chuyu seemed quite resistant towards him, just like when she took care of him for three days and three nights, but when he woke up, he saw Ma Xueyun. He wanted to get closer to her, but he didn't know how. Rong Zhi returned to his room, and Ma Xueyun came to pester him again, annoying him endlessly. On the surface, Qi Heng was Tuoba Yun's attendant, but in fact, he was his cousin.
He knew that Le Yun harbored ill intentions and was angry that Tuoba Yun was infatuated with Le Yun. Tuoba Yun shook his head and laughed. If he were that foolish, he wouldn't have the Kangwang Residence today. He knew Le Yun was Rong Zhi's spy, so why not turn her own scheme against her? Besides, she looked exactly like Huo Xuan, and just for that face, Tuoba Yun wouldn't easily dispose of her.
In Jingzhou, Huo Xuan trained the prisoners for days. She noticed that the gentleman was a doctor named Gu Huan. Because he was dissatisfied with the former Jingzhou governor Governor Liu's brother-in-law preying on innocent young men and women, he poisoned Governor Liu's brother-in-law and his cronies, and was retaliated against by Governor Liu, sentenced to execution after autumn. Wang Ze admired Gu Huan greatly.
Huo Xuan knew Gu Huan was skilled in medicine, so she made him a military doctor in the army. In the evening, Gu Huan went to thank Huo Xuan for her preferential treatment and happened to see a weapon designed by Huo Xuan for fighting enemies - a flamethrower. However, this weapon had problems with limited oil and a short range, so Gu Huan proposed an excellent solution.
He knew this move was risky and might arouse Huo Xuan's suspicion, but he still took the risk to suggest the solution, which instead earned Huo Xuan's appreciation. Wang Ze was always worried about Jingzhou's predicament and was distracted while practicing sword fighting with Huo Xuan. Huo Xuan was formidable. Wang Ze teased her, saying she was more masculine than he was, and with such a lack of gentleness, how would her beloved regent dare to marry her?
Huo Xuan was proud and unrestrained; she wouldn't care about such things. She could marry anyone she liked; who stipulated that only men could marry? As they spoke, a figure flashed through the room, and the blueprints were stolen. Huo Xuan investigated the prison cell and found the blueprints under Gu Huan's bed. However, those blueprints were counterfeited by a spy, attempting to hide the real ones.
The ink used by the spy was different from what Huo Xuan used, and in a moment of carelessness, Huo Xuan noticed the flaw. But Gu Huan was determined to take the blame, which greatly angered Huo Xuan. Anyone Gu Huan would protect must have a close relationship with him. Huo Xuan pointed directly at He Xi, as Gu Huan had once saved He Xi's life in prison, and they had an excellent relationship.
After dealing with He Xi, Huo Xuan scolded Gu Huan for being foolish. If she hadn't found out that He Xi was the spy today, and the weapon design plans had been leaked, the consequences would have been unimaginable. Gu Huan knew he had made a mistake and sincerely repented. Huo Xuan, a woman, fought on the battlefield, which Gu Huan greatly admired. A Cuju match was to be held in the palace.
Lan Ruo specifically prepared clothes for Liu Chuyu and reminded Liu Chuyu to take good care of Rong Zhi. Actually, Lan Ruo didn't understand why Rong Zhi brought soldiers to participate in the match. Liu Chuyu told her that Rong Zhi did it to prevent Tuoba Yun from gaining all the glory alone. Lan Ruo saw Liu Chuyu as usually carefree, but didn't expect her to have such a keen and perceptive mind.
On Rong Zhi's side, Liu Chuyu requested to participate, and Tuoba Yun's team added the female relative Le Yun. Tuoba Hong threw the polo ball high, and with a command, both teams moved to compete for it. Both Rong Zhi and Tuoba Yun were agile, dribbling past opponents without hesitation. The competition on the field was fierce. Off the field, the verbal sparring between Concubine Qi and the Empress Dowager was no less intense than the match itself.
Liu Chuyu used Shen Yu's momentum, flying high and was about to catch the ball, but Le Yun flew up and knocked her down. Seeing Liu Chuyu about to fall, Rong Zhi hurriedly pushed a nearby guard out to serve as a human cushion for Liu Chuyu.
