A Journey to Love Episode 31 Recap
> A Journey to Love Recap
Ning Yuanzhou specially took Ruyi to the smelting room and personally crafted a sword for her. He hoped that this sword, like himself, would accompany Ruyi in the lively world. Ruyi named the sword "Red Dust," symbolizing "in the red dust, there is you, and also her." Upon learning that Ning Yuanzhou had given Ruyi the well-forged sword stored in the Andu branch, Yu Shisan expressed great admiration. However, he was puzzled by Ning Yuanzhou's decision to forge a sword at this critical moment after injuring his arm.
Ning Yuanzhou tested Yu Shisan, who discovered that Ning Yuanzhou's internal energy was unstable. Ning Yuanzhou explained that there was a downside to the Wandu Resolution, causing a loss of internal energy within seven days. Additionally, he had taken the Qianji Pill for ten days, resulting in intermittent internal energy due to the conflicting effects of the two medications. Unable to guarantee his survival in the upcoming battle, Ning Yuanzhou requested Yu Shisan to keep this matter confidential for the sake of stabilizing the military and to ensure the safe return of his brothers to Wuguo in case of a rescue mission.
Ruyi challenged Deng Hui, who went to Wannian Temple for the meeting. Afterward, Ruyi openly admitted to killing the Crown Prince and Duke Wang for the late Empress's revenge. Ruyi proposed that Deng Hui record all the achievements Zhuyi Guard had made for Da'an in the history books. Deng Hui agreed to the deal.
Wudi successfully practiced with Liu Dao Tang and learned about their plan to rescue him that night. He informed Ning Yuanzhou and others about the situation in the prison. Ruyi engaged in a one-on-one fight with Deng Hui and emerged victorious. However, Deng Hui, being untrustworthy, called the ambushed Zhuyi Guard for assistance. Ruyi faced Zhuyi Guard alone, reluctant to harm her former comrades. Unfortunately, she fell unconscious due to a sword wound and the effects of a sedative.
Ning Yuanzhou, accompanied by his Liu Dao Tang brothers, dispersed a sedative with Kongming Lanterns, incapacitating some guards. They then entered Donghu Bamboo House, eliminating the remaining guards and successfully reuniting with Wudi. On the other side, Yang Ying initially planned to leave Siyi Inn with Du Changshi, but when Du Changshi's whereabouts were discovered by Zhuyi Guard, a fight ensued. Du Changshi suffered severe injuries, and Yang Ying decided to stay at the inn. She, posing as Prince Li, ordered Sun Lang to find a doctor for Du Changshi and send him to meet Ning Yuanzhou and the others, while she stayed to attract Zhuyi Guard's attention to ensure the success of Ning Yuanzhou's rescue mission.
Ning Yuanzhou and his group were discovered during their retreat, and Wudi was wounded midway. Ning Yuanzhou ordered a hasty withdrawal. Deng Hui brought the unconscious Ruyi to Emperor An, who commanded Deng Hui to kill Ruyi. Unexpectedly, Ruyi woke up and seized Emperor An. Before the operation, Ruyi had secretly contacted the former members of Zhuyi Guard, deliberately getting captured to personally meet Emperor An.
Upon learning that Yang Ying stayed behind alone, Ning Yuanzhou and the others were worried. Ruyi ordered Emperor An to ring the Anyang Bell to summon officials, and Li Tongguang, upon hearing about trouble in the palace, also gathered his subordinates to rush to the palace. On the other side, Zhuyi Guard successfully discovered that Wudi had been rescued. They forcibly entered Siyi Inn to take Yang Ying away. To save herself, Yang Ying set fire to the inn, also alerting the citizens of Andu. The people were displeased with Zhuyi Guard's actions, and they intervened to put out the fire, opposing Zhuyi Guard's midnight arson attempt.
