> Pledge of Allegiance Recap
Medical clinic, Lu Zheng anxiously waited outside while Zhao Gou let him into the palace. In the palace, Yuan Zhongdao said that once the Yu Ming lock was in the hands of the emperor, Lord Yan’s thoughts would be forever cut off. However, only Lu Zheng could figure out how to decipher the secret code. Lu Zheng said that he would do his best to unlock the Yu Ming lock as soon as possible. At this time, Yuan Zhongdao recommended Li Wu to be in charge of the case of the rebels and asked Lu Zheng to assist him. The emperor approved.
In the secret room of the bell tower, Yuan Zhongdao told Zhang Junqing that in the Hongwu year, Mu Jinggao made a batch of firearms for the Crown Prince. The Crown Prince did not want to see war and hid these firearms in front of Bintian. The contact person between Mu Jinggao and the Crown Prince was Li Yan. The rebel Jin Yi Wei framed Li Yan and accused him of plotting against the Crown Prince. Li Yan was tortured but still refused to reveal the secret of the firearms. Song Heming used Li Wu to replace Li Yan’s son and left incense for the Li family. Li Yan’s son was Yuan Zhongdao himself. He gave the Yu Ming lock to the emperor to preserve Li Yan’s loyalty and left Zhang Junqing from Jiaofang Division because he felt guilty. He was willing to give his life for Zhang Junqing. Zhang Junqing drew his sword at Yuan Zhongdao but finally threw down his sword and left the secret room.
In a tavern, Li Wu woke up from his serious injury and kept drinking. At this time, someone played music with their eyes covered beside him. Li Wu wanted to donate money but found that it was Li Dongfang who scared him away and he fell down in the end.
Zhang Ji Silk Shop. Zhang Junqing wanted Li Dongfang to kill her so that she could clear herself of suspicion and leave safely. In return, she would tell Li Dongfang about the secret passage that leads directly to the Wenhua Hall in the palace. Li Dongfang couldn’t help but wonder which side Zhang Junqing was on.
Li Wu woke up in bed and found himself in Zhang Ji Silk Shop. Li Wu told Zhang Junqing that Song Tianyi was his friend and that he admired him for enduring so much pain but still having the courage to love someone. Zhang Junqing handed Li Wu a pile of documents, saying that those who had submitted them were traitors and needed to be investigated. Li Wu refused to comply and asked her to call Yuan Zhongdao over to speak with him personally.
In the Zhenfu Division, Lu Zheng believed that Li Wu would not come because he was seriously ill. Si Xiangnan reminded Lu Zheng that it was inappropriate to take away Li Wu’s royal flag. Just as they were arguing, Li Wu arrived with his crutches. Si Xiangnan asked Li Wu what his next move was. Knowing that Li Wu couldn’t hear or speak now, Si Xiangnan wrote down the content on paper and handed it to Li Wu. Li Wu couldn’t understand it and threw it away casually. Then he drew a picture with a pen and gestured to Jin Yi Wei to give orders.
The Imperial Guards arrested the officials and took them to the prison. Li Wu brought a pile of torture instruments and ordered the Imperial Guards to catch Officer Cao who was making noise as a warning to others. The officials had no choice but to obey. Lu Zheng watched as the Imperial Guards stuffed the letters written by the officials into the gate of the mansion. The people in the mansion were ordered to go to the canal wharf to retrieve their deposits. Outside the mansion, people handed over invitation letters and silver to Li Wu. Lu Zheng silently recorded the amount of money brought in on the Book of Impermanence.
The next day, Lu Zheng saw the silver in the yard and scolded Li Wu for his behavior. At this moment, a group of Imperial Guards walked into the yard and Li Wu ordered them to seal up the silver and send it to the palace. Li Wu told Lu Zheng that he did not find any stolen money during his previous house searches, so he made those officials pay for their lives and personally moved the silver to his official residence.
In the palace, Yuan Zhongdao was very angry when he saw what Li Wu had submitted. Back at home, Li Wu told Lu Zheng what Yuan Zhongdao had said in the palace and Lu Zheng helped him analyze Yuan Zhongdao’s words.
At night, the Imperial Guards followed Zhang Junqing to Ji’e Lane. Suddenly, an assassin rushed forward to kill Zhang Junqing. Zhang Junqing looked very frightened, but at this moment, the Imperial Guards intervened and saved Zhang Junqing. The Imperial Guards told Lu Zheng that something had happened to Zhang Junqing. Lu Zheng hurriedly left the mansion. Shu Tang groped her way into a secret passage at Zhang Ji Silk Shop. When Zhang Junqing returned to the silk shop and saw the messy ground, he seemed to be thinking about something.
