Blooming Days Episode 32 Recap
> Blooming Days Recap
Mu Haiyao looked at Lady Soft's affection for Luo Qinglian and naturally felt uncomfortable. She had hoped to have a deep sisterly bond with Lady Soft, as they did before. However, Lady Soft was not a foolish person; she knew that someone who had betrayed once would likely betray again. As long as Mu Haiyao did not obstruct the path to saving Luo Qinglian, they wouldn't be enemies.
Lu Beiyi reversed the situation, and He Lianxin received the news. He distributed military provisions to reward the soldiers, but the provisions were mixed with bran. Later in the battle, the situation reversed. The incident with the bran was orchestrated by the Fourth Prince. The Fifth Prince just learned about it, and he was very surprised. He didn't expect the Fourth Prince to do such a thing. The ministers advocated for peace to minimize losses. In the midst of He Lianxin's distress, the envoy from Cige'er, Sirelun, had arrived outside the gates of Queliang. Lord An personally came to welcome the Khan into the city for rest.
He Lianxin naturally hosted the envoy, inviting his brothers, ministers, and even the ladies to the banquet. The purpose was to showcase the strength of Queliang and the Wang Mansion. He Lianxin also released Luo Qinglian, stating that he had investigated the arson and found it unrelated to Luo Qinglian. Although Queliang was currently at a disadvantage, He Lianxin needed to boost the morale of his soldiers, so he decided to personally go to war. Seeing this, Sirelun realized that their Khan had not chosen the wrong person in He Lianxin. Therefore, Sirelun's visit was to negotiate peace.
This surprised everyone present. They had thought that Cige'er sent an envoy to demand answers, but unexpectedly, they preemptively proposed peace. However, the Khan of Cige'er wanted to request a virtuous woman from Lord An as his princess. The marriage proposal made Lady Rong nervous. She feared that Lingwei would be arranged for a political marriage. Luo Qinglian comforted Lady Rong, explaining that historically, princesses were selected from ministerial families for political marriages. It wouldn't involve Lingwei, so Lady Rong could only hope for the best.
However, bad news quickly followed. Cige'er insisted on having the legitimate princess from the Wang Mansion for the political marriage. Lady Rong asked Luo Qinglian to seek Lord An's mercy and not agree. Knowing that Lingwei's fate was at stake, Luo Qinglian, despite the risk of punishment, decided to try. Lady Soft initially wanted to stop Luo Qinglian. They all knew it was related to Lady Four and had become a foregone conclusion. Once Luo Qinglian angered He Lianxin and lost his protection, she would become a target in the mansion. Luo Qinglian understood, but she couldn't lose Lady Rong and Lady Soft, so she was willing to try for the sake of sisterhood. Moreover, Lingwei was like her daughter.
Luo Qinglian's plea failed, and Su Nanchun, seeing her in a difficult situation, suggested a plan. Since the envoy chose the princess, only she could change their minds. Therefore, Luo Qinglian sent someone to disguise as the princess, showing an extremely ugly appearance to make the envoy reconsider. However, the envoy had a much broader perspective. Even if the princess was not a stunning beauty, the marriage was not about marital harmony but avoiding conflict between the two sides. After Luo Qinglian and the envoy separated, reflecting on his words, which showed a grand vision and the courage to address their Khan by name, she realized that this person was not an envoy but the Khan of Cige'er.
Knowing that the Khan had never taken a consort and finding his character acceptable, Luo Qinglian considered that marrying Lingwei to him might be a good outcome. Lady Rong didn't expect Luo Qinglian to think this way. She knew she had no other options, so she resorted to a desperate measure, secretly arranging for Lingwei to escape in the disguise of a servant girl.
