Lost You Forever Episode 38 Recap
> Lost You Forever Recap
Wen Xiaoliu had suppressed many thoughts and went out alone to clear her mind. She slowly ascended the path towards the Purple Gold Peak, each step recalling past events. By the time she reached halfway up the mountain, she was exhausted and sat down on the stone steps. Cang Xuan came to her side, comforting her and encouraging her to seek things beyond life and death. Inspired by him, Wen Xiaoliu proposed that he arrange a marriage for her. The condition was that the person must wholeheartedly love her and not marry another woman. Cang Xuan readily agreed.
The Fifth and Seventh Princes jointly accused Cang Xuan before the Xiyan King, alleging that he was forming factions and building power in the Central Plains. This displeased the old Xiyan clans and offended some Central Plains clans. The Xiyan King remained silent, deciding to embark on a tour of the Central Plains and visit the Purple Gold Peak to worship the Heavenly Emperor. He appointed Xiyan Deyan as a special envoy and allowed him to accompany the King on the journey. Xiyan Yuyang and General Ying Long remained in Xiyan to handle state affairs.
Upon leaving the Xiyan City, the King's army advanced towards the Zhezhou City. As they arrived, they hosted a banquet for the various Central Plains clans, assuring them that as long as the Xiyan army was present, the Central Plains would remain peaceful. In the month of Ji Chun, when flowers were in full bloom, the major clans received invitations for flower-viewing and entertainment. However, Xiyan King ignored Cang Xuan's presence, keeping him outside the gates repeatedly.
Haoling King sensed the critical situation and exposed the undercover agents hidden in the Central Plains. He ordered them to swiftly retrieve Wen Xiaoliu and A Nian to Haoling. Wen Xiaoliu declined and had A Nian go back with Ruzhou, stating that she would stay to support Cang Xuan. Lacking confidence to handle the crisis, Cang Xuan agreed with Wen Xiaoliu that she should stay. He believed she shouldn't leave, especially because her relationship with Xiyan King was different from her mother's. Xiyan King had no nurturing relationship with her, and their bond was weak. If Xiyan King dared to harm them, they would retaliate.
For several days, the Xiyan King feasted guests in Zhezhou. Meanwhile, Cang Xuan supervised craftsmen repairing the palace, unaware of the impending danger. Xiyan Deyan falsely implicated Cang Xuan and brought water tribe members to pose as assassins targeting the King. This caused the King to grow more suspicious of Cang Xuan. He ordered Cang Xuan's presence.
As the initial plan progressed, Xiyan Deyan met with Xiang Liu alone and instructed him to ambush Wen Xiaoliu, ensuring that she wouldn't return. Despite the dangers of meeting Xiyan King, Cang Xuan didn't want to bear false accusations or risk his loyal followers' lives. He decided to go alone to Zhezhou.
Wen Xiaoliu insisted on accompanying Cang Xuan, unswayed even by his harsh words. Tu Shanjing and Chishui Fenglong worried about Cang Xuan and tried to find ways to help him. When they heard that Wen Xiaoliu would accompany him, Tu Shanjing rushed to meet Xiyan King. However, Chenrong Xinyue was hesitant and couldn't persuade her brother. She prioritized her safety over rescuing Cang Xuan.
Before Cang Xuan reached Zhezhou City, Tu Shanjing and Chishui Fenglong had already met Xiyan King and were kept in a side hall. Soon, they heard the voices of Wen Xiaoliu and Cang Xuan. Xiyan Deyan and the old clans accused Cang Xuan of hiring assassins, but Wen Xiaoliu argued on his behalf. She left Xiyan Deyan speechless, and eventually, Xiyan King concluded that the matter was unrelated to Cang Xuan.
Xiyan King raised a question before everyone: How would they treat the Central Plains clans if they became rulers of Xiyan? Xiyan Deyan flattered and echoed the King's sentiments, while Cang Xuan held a different view. He said he would treat the Central Plains clans as subjects, even if Nuwa and Fuxi were alive, they would make the same choice. Throughout history, whether Xiyan or Central Plains, they were inseparable.
Contrary to expectations, Xiyan King was not angered by Cang Xuan's words. Chishui Fenglong even admired and respected Cang Xuan more. When the crisis was defused, and they were ready to leave, they encountered black-clad individuals who were lying in ambush. Wen Xiaoliu and Cang Xuan cooperated to defend themselves. With limited spiritual power, Wen Xiaoliu managed to shoot three arrows, and Xiang Liu, seeing this, allowed them to escape for the time being.
Wen Xiaoliu used the first two arrows to fend off the attackers, and with Cang Xuan's help, the last arrow was aimed directly at Xiyan King's palace. Tu Shanjing realized something was wrong and quickly left with Chishui Fenglong. Upon hearing that Wen Xiaoliu and Cang Xuan were safe, their anxiety was eased.
After leaving Xiyan King's palace, they rested by the roadside. Wen Xiaoliu thanked Tu Shanjing and Chishui Fenglong for their assistance and noticed an unusual atmosphere between Wen Xiaoliu and Tu Shanjing. She decided to take Wen Xiaoliu back to the Central Plains. Chishui Fenglong straightforwardly expressed his intention to marry Wen Xiaoliu. Tu Shanjing, aware of his failure towards Wen Xiaoliu, hoped Chishui Fenglong would take care of her.
