A Journey to Love Episode 18 Recap
> A Journey to Love Recap
Yang Ying deliberately came to apologize to Yuanluo, but Yuanluo believed that Zheng Qingyun was the one who hurt him, so Yang Ying didn't need to apologize. Feeling wronged, Yang Ying shed tears, expressing that if she died in Anguo, aside from Yuanluo, Ning Yuanzhou, Ruyi, and a few others, hardly anyone would know she was also a princess. Yuanluo told Yang Ying that he had already made up his mind. When he died, he would die like a great hero, ensuring that everyone would know how heroic Yuanluo's sacrifice was.
Yuanluo mentioned that he had known since childhood that he wouldn't live past the age of twenty due to heart disease. While he couldn't control how he was born, he could arrange how he would die. Yuanluo believed that everyone should live their lives splendidly, just like Yang Ying disguised as a man to visit Anguo. Even if she sacrificed herself for the country, it would be recorded in history. With Yuanluo's reassurance, Yang Ying completely understood and said that as soon as it was dawn, she would calmly go to meet Lord Ying.
Ning Yuanzhou was in a silent conflict with Ruyi due to jealousy, but he didn't know how to resolve the issue. Ning Yuanzhou gathered everyone for a meeting to discuss how to seek assistance from Lord Ying to smoothly complete the mission. Du Changshi hoped Ruyi could negotiate with Lord Ying on behalf of the prince, but Ning Yuanzhou didn't want Ruyi involved in the delegation's affairs and hoped she would reconsider. Lord Ying, Li Tongguang, visited with gifts, citing the disturbance of the prince the previous day. Ruyi decided to receive Lord Ying in her capacity as Princess Wuhu.
Due to the disagreement between Ning Yuanzhou and Ruyi, the delegation was worried about them. Yuanluo stated that even though Ruyi, Du Changshi, and Yang Ying were not members of Liu Dao Tang, every person in the delegation was indispensable to rescue the emperor. Yuanluo also believed that it was unfair for Ning Yuanzhou to let Ruyi leave the delegation just because of jealousy.
Lord Ying conveyed Emperor An's decree, hoping the delegation could arrive in Andu within seven days. Du Changshi thought it was difficult to comply with such a request, and Ruyi, posing as Princess Wuhu, decided to handle the matter. Lord Ying dismissed all his attendants to meet his master, but Ruyi continued to deny her true identity. Ruyi revealed the conflicts between Lord Ying and the kings of Hedong and Luoxi, anticipating that whoever ascended to the throne as an enemy would make Lord Ying uncomfortable. She offered support from Wuguo and presented two cities, Yun and Mian, to Lord Ying.
Li Tongguang, considering himself just a grassroots warrior, expressed his lack of grand ambitions. Ruyi reminded him that the founders of An and Wuguo were also once humble warriors. Li Tongguang hoped Ruyi would agree to one condition: he wanted to lean on her side like he used to lean on his master, resolving his longing for his master. Yu Shisan, Qian Zhao, and others eavesdropped on the conversation between Lord Ying and Ruyi. They believed that Lord Ying treated Ruyi better than Ning Yuanzhou did. Out of jealousy, Ning Yuanzhou barged into the room, claiming that Prince had requested to see Ruyi and took her away.
After seeing Ruyi again, Li Tongguang realized he had mistaken her identity, but he was still determined to keep Ruyi by his side, just like he had his master. Ning Yuanzhou admitted to Ruyi that he was somewhat jealous and envied the time Li Tongguang and Ruyi spent together. He also acknowledged that it was his fault to let Ruyi leave the delegation. Ruyi honestly confessed to Ning Yuanzhou that she thought she liked a solitary life, but after meeting everyone, she realized she preferred a life where she could fight side by side with others. Although she disliked the identity of the Zhuyi Guard, she hoped to use her hands and mind to do something for the women who suffered in the Zhuyi Guard, rather than living the life a man wanted. Ruyi hoped Ning Yuanzhou could also carefully consider this matter because only when both had a clear understanding could they know whether this relationship could continue.
Yuanluo and others secretly observed Ning Yuanzhou and Ruyi, all very worried about them. Yu Shisan came up with a plan to have them act separately: Yuanluo would go to comfort Ruyi, and Yang Ying would persuade Ning Yuanzhou. They couldn't let the rift between the two continue to widen.
