Pledge of Allegiance Episode 3 Recap
> Pledge of Allegiance Recap
Ten years ago in the Chaoyang prison, Li Wu failed to open the lock at the door. He wanted to borrow Shu Tang’s hairpin, but Shu Tang said that it was given to her by her father and refused to give it to Li Wu.
At Wang Kegong’s mansion, Shu Tang and Li Wu went to the granary. Shu Tang took the beautiful jade that Li Wu had stolen and asked him to guard the door for her. After a short rest, she returned the jade to him. Lu Zheng followed the bloodstains and found Shu Tang’s night clothes. He remembered that the maid’s clothes were a bit strange. Inside the granary, Li Wu saw that Shu Tang seemed to be asleep and quietly approached her to take back the jade. Unexpectedly, Shu Tang was not asleep and wanted to kill Li Wu. Li Wu quickly told Shu Tang that he was a thief and was willing to give all the stolen treasures to her and help her escape from Wang Kegong’s mansion. During their struggle, Shu Tang saw a scar on Li Wu’s neck and knew that he had also been in Chaoyang prison. Li Wu looked at the hairpin on Shu Tang’s head and remembered a girl who was in the same cell as him.
On the other side, Lu Zheng checked the shoulders of all the maids in the courtyard but found nothing unusual. Lu Zheng returned to the town government office and summoned other guards to go with him to Wang Kegong’s mansion. They refused because they had no orders. Lu Zheng thought that this matter was urgent. Just as both sides were deadlocked, Lu Yulin came over and said that Wang Kegong’s family affairs were not under the jurisdiction of the Zhengfu Division.
Lu Zheng told Lu Yulin that he had found out that Li Dongfang was secretly colluding with Ye Bushou and was not qualified to be a Bai Hu. Lu Yulin said that the position of Bai Hu was not Lu Zheng’s turn and that Lu Zheng only wanted to use the identity of Bai Hu to get the key to the case library to check the case files of Hongwu years. Lu Zheng was determined to find out as long as he lived. Lu Yulin told him that Song Heming’s case could not be reopened and asked him not to interfere in Wang Kegong’s mansion. Lu Zheng couldn’t listen anymore and left.
Early in the morning, Li Wu left Wang Kegong’s mansion through a gap in the west courtyard wall. When he returned home, he saw Li Dongfang wake up, so he knocked him out and put him in a boat box heading to Yangzhou. Li Wu packed his treasures and wanted to leave, but he couldn’t help but take the medicine back to Wang Kegong’s mansion. Lu Zheng saw Li Wu enter Wang Kegong’s mansion through the gap and followed him secretly. Li Wu went to the granary to look for Shu Tang, and Lu Zheng followed closely behind him and asked him to hand over the assassin. Li Wu denied it loudly and wanted to leave the granary. Lu Zheng stopped him quickly, and they fought in the granary. Just as Li Wu was subdued by Lu Zheng, Xie Kongran locked the door of the granary.
At night, Li Wu went to unlock the door of the granary. When Lu Zheng saw this, he tied Li Wu up in the granary and planned to take him back to the town government office after catching the assassin. After leaving the granary, Lu Zheng went to Wang Kegong’s study at his subordinate’s reminder and saved Wang Kegong who was almost suffocated. Lu Zheng asked Xie Kongran to return to the Zhenfu Division to find some manpower while he stayed at Wang Kegong’s mansion to protect him.
In the granary, Shu Tang thought that Li Wu had brought the Jin Yi Wei to capture her, so she opened the granary and released the grain. Li Wu was submerged in the grain and could only hold the two bottles of medicine he had brought with his hands. Shu Tang quickly cut the rope that bound Li Wu and rescued him from the granary. Through Shu Tang’s words, Li Wu learned that Shu Tang grew up under Li Qianzong’s hand in Ye Bu Shou. He accidentally saw a scar on Shu Tang’s neck and seemed to be thinking about something.
On the other side, Wang Kegong couldn’t help but talk to Lu Zheng about his old friend again. Lu Zheng then learned that Ye Bu Shou was looking for Yu Ming Suo. Just as they were talking, Li Wu entered the room through a window and overheard their conversation. He learned that what he got was Yu Ming Suo.
In the granary, Shu Tang took Yu Ming Suo from Li Wu’s hand and handed the jade to him. Suddenly, Li Wu proposed to help Shu Tang find out where the cipher was hidden, while Ye Bu Shou wanted him to steal something from Jin Yi Wei’s case library. Shu Tang agreed to Li Wu’s request. Lu Zheng used the key given by Wang Kegong to open the bottom of the tablet but found nothing. He turned over the tablet and found that Song Heming’s name was written on it.
