Love and Sword Episode 14 Recap
> Love and Sword Recap
Yan Shao was utterly shocked, unable to comprehend why the eagle bone whistle was in Lin Wanci’s hands. Lin Wanci claimed that Rong Shukuang had given it to her. Without another word, Yan Shao hurried off to find Rong Shukuang. At this time, Rong Shukuang and the others had arrived by a small stream. After testing the water to confirm it wasn’t poisoned, Rong Shukuang lay down to rest, feeling exhausted.
Hua Qi, now untied due to their trust in her, was also resting. In her dazed state, Rong Shukuang mistook Lin Shaoci for Yan Shao and felt a moment of emotion. But when she saw clearly who it was, she couldn’t hide her disappointment. Yan Shao couldn’t understand why Lin Wanci had appeared here. Lin Wanci explained that she simply wanted to explore and hoped to follow Rong Shukuang’s group to Tiangang.
Impatient, Yan Shao wanted to send Lin Wanci back, but she begged him to take her along, offering to pay double whatever Rong Shukuang had paid him. However, Yan Shao remained unmoved. Seeing that Yan Shao was about to leave, Lin Wanci suddenly stumbled, forcing Yan Shao to help her up and continue walking. When Rong Shukuang woke up again, she found Hua Qi feeding A Lie while she herself was tied up tightly.
Rong Shukuang immediately guessed Hua Qi’s true identity. Hua Qi had deliberately used a shepherd’s flute sound, along with smoke and miasma, to knock everyone unconscious and bring them here. Rong Shukuang realized that Hua Qi must be the master of Wu Wang Pavilion. Hua Qi admitted that her real name was Hua Sixue, but she particularly liked the name “Hua Qi” because Shen Zuitian had given it to her.
Rong Shukuang couldn’t understand why Hua Sixue would like such a villain. Suddenly, she thought of a way to provoke her. She claimed that she had been captured by Shen Zuitian twice, yet both times, he had let her go, proving that he was a man who cherished beauty. This enraged Hua Sixue so much that she wanted to kill Rong Shukuang.
At that moment, Shen Zuitian arrived, and Hua Sixue immediately suggested cutting off Rong Shukuang’s tongue and feeding it to A Lie. Rong Shukuang quickly began revealing secrets to avoid giving Shen Zuitian an excuse to investigate further. Rong Shukuang claimed that she was not valued in Yuchi Manor. In the end, she was just an adopted daughter, and Lin Shaoci had even publicly rejected a marriage proposal. She insisted that she would never carry the key with her.
Instead, she suggested they go to Moye City’s Tiangang, where the other key was located, and that she could find a way to obtain it and give it to Shen Zuitian. However, Shen Zuitian didn’t believe her at all. He knew that Tiangang’s leader, Chu Tianyao, was mysterious and cunning.
Going to Tiangang would be a losing battle, so it would be better to take Rong Shukuang to Yuchi Manor, attack it directly, and wait for Chu Tianyao to come to them. When Lin Shaoci and the others woke up, they found that Rong Shukuang was missing. After searching fruitlessly, they went to the dock where they were supposed to meet Tiangang’s people at the agreed time.
There, they saw Feng Ming and Feiwu, as well as Lin Wanci, who had just stepped out of the cabin. Since Yan Shao found Lin Wanci to be a burden, he had handed her over to Feng Ming and Feiwu at the dock while he went alone to search for Rong Shukuang. Shen Zuitian also knew that Rong Shukuang’s reason for agreeing to marry Chu Tianyao was to divert Wu Wang Pavilion’s attention and sacrifice herself to protect Yuchi Manor.
This made him trust her even less. Just then, Yan Shao suddenly arrived, intending to take Rong Shukuang away. During the fight, Yan Shao injured Hua Sixue. As Rong Shukuang was about to fall off the cliff, Yan Shao frantically reached out to grab her. Seizing the opportunity, Shen Zuitian attacked, but instead, all three of them tumbled off the cliff and into the river below.
Rong Shukuang and Yan Shao were the first to regain consciousness and found Shen Zuitian still unconscious. Initially, they intended to leave him behind, but in the end, they couldn’t bear it and dragged him ashore, tying him up. Rong Shukuang felt sorrowful, believing she would never see Yan Shao again. However, she realized that if she wasn’t in danger, Yan Shao wouldn’t have shown up. Yan Shao teased that every time they met, things became catastrophic.
His leg was injured, but this time, Rong Shukuang didn’t faint at the sight of blood. She guessed that she was gradually adapting to this body. Yan Shao, however, didn’t quite understand what she meant. When Rong Shukuang went out to gather firewood, she suddenly questioned why she had saved Shen Zuitian in the first place. If not for him, she and her master could have had their own peaceful world. Now, they were stuck with a third wheel.
Yan Shao looked at the food Rong Shukuang had prepared and at Shen Zuitian, who was still unconscious. He gestured for Rong Shukuang to bandage Shen Zuitian’s wounds. Seeing this, Yan Shao was reminded of the time when Wu Wang Pavilion wiped out Longyue Village. He had hidden Rong Shukuang, and thanks to Shen Zuitian’s help in covering their tracks, they had narrowly escaped the massacre. Rong Shukuang fell asleep leaning on Yan Shao’s shoulder.
While she slept, Yan Shao secretly drew out the poison from her body, but Shen Zuitian happened to see this. Shen Zuitian recognized the poison as Red Lotus Heart. Years ago, when his father was pursuing Su Shiyu and forcing him to hand over the key, Su Shiyu had poisoned him with this very toxin. In the end, his father had died in agony. According to him, there was no cure for this poison.
Hua Qi continued ordering people to search for Shen Zuitian, while Lin Shaoci and the others secretly followed her, planning to find Rong Shukuang and Yan Shao before she did. When Rong Shukuang woke up, she found Yan Shao unconscious. Shen Zuitian told her that only he could save Yan Shao. Otherwise, Yan Shao would die, as he was not only poisoned but also severely injured.
Rong Shukuang refused to believe him and stomped on his wound, making his pain even worse. However, Shen Zuitian reminded her that he was the only one who could help Yan Shao in this situation. Only then did Rong Shukuang untie him. Shen Zuitian heated a sword and used it to remove the infected flesh from Yan Shao’s wound while assuring them that he wouldn’t attack anyone inside the cave. Just then, they heard A Lie’s call from outside.
Shen Zuitian wanted to go find A Lie, but Rong Shukuang knocked him out. When Yan Shao and Shen Zuitian woke up again, Rong Shukuang had already brought A Lie over and was even feeding him meat. A Lie obediently went to Shen Zuitian’s side. The next day, under Rong Shukuang’s arrangement, she made Yan Shao and Shen Zuitian catch fish together. As the leader of Wu Wang Pavilion, Shen Zuitian had never done such a thing before.
But now, with only Rong Shukuang as the only able-bodied person among them, he had no choice but to comply. Though her martial arts weren’t strong, she could still handle him. Rong Shukuang enjoyed the carefree life they were having now and wished they could stay like this. Just as she was about to confess her feelings again, a sudden whistle interrupted them.
