Pledge of Allegiance Episode 4 Recap
> Pledge of Allegiance Recap
Ten years ago in the Mu Mansion, the family members of Mu Jinggao were taken back to the Zhenfu Division, but the Mu sisters were left behind. Eventually, the elder sister was sent to the Jiaofang Division and the younger sister was sent to the Zhao Prison. The sisters were thus separated.
In Wang Kegong’s mansion, Lu Zheng was puzzled as to how Li Wu could escape. Li Wu proposed a bet that if Lu Zheng arrived at the roof first, he would know everything. When they reached the roof, Li Wu lied that he had a secret mission and only kept it from Lu Zheng. He handed Yu Ming Suo to Lu Zheng and asked him to keep it safe. It turned out that Li Wu planned to give Yu Ming Suo to Lu Zheng for safekeeping and steal it back when he needed it.
After the Orchid Banquet held in Wang Kegong’s mansion’s backyard ended, Wang Kegong escorted his guests out of the mansion. Li Wu took this opportunity to inquire about where the cipher was hidden. Just then, Lu Zheng was called to the garden by a servant. Li Wu took advantage of this and stole Yu Ming Suo back while helping Lu Zheng tidy his clothes.
In the garden, Lu Zheng told Wang Kegong about his background. Wang Kegong was moved and when he looked closely at Lu Zheng, Lu Zheng took the opportunity to ask Wang Kegong about his father’s past. Wang Kegong told Lu Zheng that the method to open Yu Ming Suo was in Song Heming’s Wuchang Book. At this moment, Ye Bu Shou rushed down from the roof and killed Wang Kegong with Lu Zheng’s sword. Li Wu arrived and Ye Bu Shou asked him to hand over Yu Ming Suo or he would kill Lu Zheng. Li Wu had no choice but to take out Yu Ming Suo. Suddenly, Shu Tang arrived and fought with the assassin. Li Wu took advantage of the chaos to put Yu Ming Suo back into his arms and left through a gap in the west courtyard wall.
Wang Kegong died and the servants opened the door to escape but found many Jin Yi Wei standing in front of them. It turned out that Si Xiangnan had brought his subordinates here. The Jin Yi Wei came to the garden and found that Wang Kegong had died. Si Xiangnan learned that the blood on Lu Zheng’s sword was Wang Kegong’s and ordered his subordinates to record that Lu Zheng killed Wang Kegong in the Wuchang Book, indicating that the sword was a murder weapon.
In the Wen Hua Hall, Yuan Zhongdao handed a secret letter to Emperor Zhu Yunwen during his lecture. Yuan Zhongdao angrily rebuked Lu Zheng’s behavior. Zhu Yunwen allowed Si Xiangnan to thoroughly investigate whether there were any rebels within the Zhenfu Division.
Li Wu successfully left Ying Tianfu by bribing the city gate guards and ran to the mountains. He buried Yu Ming Suo under a big tree and tied a cloth strip on the tree as a mark. In the backyard of Wang Kegong’s mansion, Jin Yi Wei searched and found Song Heming’s tablet in the box. Si Xiangnan planned to use this opportunity to crush Lu Yulin in one fell swoop and take over the position of commander.
At Zhangji Silk Shop, Zhang Junqing changed out of his night clothes and dressed up before entering the secret room of the bell tower. Yuan Zhongdao also entered the secret room to meet her. Zhang Junqing told Yuan Zhongdao about the whereabouts of Yu Ming Suo and Li Wu’s origin. It turned out that five years ago, Yuan Zhongdao rescued Mu’s sister Zhang Junqing from the Jiaofang Division. Zhang Junqing was determined to find out the truth about Mu’s family’s destruction and was willing to be dispatched by Yuan Zhongdao. Yuan Zhongdao saw that Zhang Junqing killed Wang Kegong and wanted to exchange Yu Ming Suo for Mu’s family secrets. Zhang Junqing was actually a fake Ye Bu Shou, and Ye Bu Shou’s leader was also Yuan Zhongdao’s person. Yuan Zhongdao asked Zhang Junqing to kill Li Dongfang, and Zhang Junqing had no choice but to promise to show loyalty.
In the Zhenfu Division’s training ground, Xie Kengran bribed the guards with food and wine while Lu Zheng quietly arranged his affairs. Soon after, the guard suddenly felt pain in his abdomen and left. Xie Kengran took advantage of this opportunity to untie Lu Zheng’s rope and let him go to Yangzhou to hide. Lu Zheng did not want to leave and said that Li Wu could prove his innocence. Xie Kengran tied Lu Zheng back to the wooden stake and set off to find Li Wu.
Xie Kengran came to Ji'e Lane under the guidance of the shopkeeper. At this time, Wang Shu and Li Wu walked into the city gate. Wang Shu saw that Jin Yi Wei was checking people, so he fell down to attract Jin Yi Wei’s attention. Li Wu took the opportunity to return to his residence, packed his things, and wanted to escape, but was stopped by Si Xiangnan’s subordinates. He took out the cloth strip that Li Wu dropped in the garden and wanted to use Li Wu’s secret of entering the prison to restrain him for life. Xie Kengran followed Jin Yi Wei to Li Wu’s residence and happened to see Li Wu leaving in disguise. Xie Kengran followed Li Wu closely, but Li Wu realized that something was wrong and wanted to escape.
