Love in the Desert Episode 5 Recap
> Love in the Desert Recap
Ruo Wen studied the Masui city defense map, but Ge Xinwei snatched it and examined it herself, claiming she had never seen such things as she was still unmarried. Ruo Wen threatened her with a knife, not believing her nonsense. A group of men became interested in Ge Xinwei and tried to forcibly take her away, while Ruo Wen stood by, watching as if enjoying a show.
Ge Xinwei fought back and shouted Ruo Wen's name, scaring the men into quickly apologizing and fleeing. Ruo Wen remained firm, warning Ge Xinwei not to deceive him. Huang Beishuang, standing by the wishing tree, leaned against Huo Qingyun and thanked him for protecting her all this time, wanting to say a proper goodbye. Huo Qingyun suddenly kissed Huang Beishuang, but she pushed him away and slapped him.
Huo Qingyun said he could help her with E Na Qi, but Huang Beishuang told him she had a greater mission. She then approached Huo Qingyun again and willingly accepted his kiss, letting their dreams fully part. Huo Qingyun reminded her to remember her promise, saying they would meet again. As Huang Beishuang walked away, Huo Qingyun was overcome with grief, coughed up blood, and fainted. When Huo Qingyun woke up, he learned that Huang Beishuang had left.
Sha Qu, who was standing by, handed over a letter from Huang Beishuang. Huo Qingyun opened it to find a heartfelt farewell, with Huang Beishuang wishing that they would meet again in another life. Huang Beishuang arrived in Yunpei as promised and collected some soil in a money pouch. Ye Pei didn’t understand her intentions, but Huang Beishuang told her to wait and see. Huang Beishuang then changed her clothes and entered the Eastern Palace of Yunpei.
Huo Qingyun, unable to let go, rode after her and called out her name, returning the *Desert Scroll* to her. Huang Beishuang didn’t turn around; it was Lian Huan who retrieved it. As Huo Qingyun watched Huang Beishuang walk away resolutely, his heart ached unbearably, and he coughed up blood. At the peace marriage ceremony, the tribes and princesses who had the border pass disc awaited the call of the Lord of Yunpei.
Each princess came forward one after another to pay their respects. When the princess of the Zhenqu tribe, Zhenqu Youjia, appeared, her beauty captivated the audience. Zhenqu Youjia, dignified and graceful, presented her tribute and humbly offered to lower her status to that of a servant, expressing her sincerity to Yunpei and her desire to serve the Lord, Na Zhan.
Na Zhan was intrigued by the painting in the tribute, and Zhenqu Youjia explained that it was a scene from her dream, something she had intended to offer Na Zhan once he conquered the desert. Feeling tired, Na Zhan called for the last princess, Princess Mizhan, to step forward. Huang Beishuang arrived just in time and asked Master Zhu for a favor, explaining that she had come from the far northern desert to meet Na Zhan.
Master Zhu angrily ordered her to leave, warning her not to cause a disturbance at the entrance. Huang Beishuang threatened to take her own life, drawing a blade and placing it against her neck, begging Master Zhu to report her request. The audience with Na Zhan was about to conclude when he heard that someone from the northern desert had arrived, assuming it was the first time someone from E Na Qi had come. He allowed her to enter.
Huang Beishuang presented soil from her homeland and expressed her loyalty to Yunpei, stating that she had risked her life to come. Na Zhan asked what would happen if she wasn’t conferred a title, and Huang Beishuang said that whether she was granted one or not, her tribe would remain loyal to Yunpei. Na Zhan suggested arranging another marriage for her, but Huang Beishuang politely declined, saying that if the peace marriage failed, she would remain alone for life.
She then offered to perform a dance, indifferent to whether she would be mocked. Huang Beishuang performed the Phoenix Rebirth Dance, leaving the audience stunned. Na Zhan praised her dancing skills, noting that she had used chemical powders on herself to create such a spectacular effect.
