The Inextricable Destiny Episode 15 Recap
> The Inextricable Destiny Recap
The Emperor said that Jiuling would serve as his general to assist him. Jiuling was momentarily stunned when she heard this. The Emperor saw her hesitation and thought she was unwilling. He sighed, mentioning that her father and brothers had risked their lives to entrust her to Rong Yu, wanting to keep her away from bloodshed and danger, allowing her to live an ordinary life. So, if she didn't agree, he could understand. Jiuling realized the Emperor had misunderstood her, so she expressed her doubts. She asked why he valued her so much and what qualities or abilities she possessed. The Emperor responded seriously, saying it was because she was from the He family, a family full of loyal and virtuous people. He also knew that the He family would never collude with the enemy. The Emperor spoke with sorrow and anger, revealing that the letter accusing the He family of treason was fabricated by the Zhongyong Duke and his accomplices. He regretted not having a strong foundation as a young emperor, and now he was being marginalized by them. He couldn't even protect the loyal and righteous He family. Jiuling, with tears in her eyes, knelt before the Emperor and vowed to fulfill her mission by helping him govern and safeguard the prosperous empire of Jialin. The Emperor raised her and mentioned that a powerless emperor and a criminal's daughter had an uncertain future. However, Jiuling firmly stated that she would not disappoint him and that she wouldn't spare any of the corrupt officials who had framed the He family. The Emperor entrusted Jiuling with 100 royal guards, part of his father's arrangements. He instructed them to treat Jiuling as they would treat him and ordered them to infiltrate the mansions of various ministers to gather information. After arranging everything, Jiuling bought pastries and went to the Rong residence. On her way, she met Rong Yu, who was also excited. What was even more rare was that both of them had bought heartwarming gifts for each other. After setting everything up at the Xunnan Prince's residence, he rushed to Jialin. He stood at a distance from the Rong residence, holding an umbrella, watching Jiuling and Rong Yu happily return home. He felt a deep sense of loss, knowing he had arrived too late. The next day, Jiuling helped Rong Yu pack his bags. Seeing the heavy rain, Jiuling advised Rong Yu not to go to the astrology pavilion for his lessons. However, Rong Yu insisted on going, wanting to learn more to better protect Jiuling. Delighted, Jiuling decided to personally accompany him to his lessons. Rong Venge held Jiuling back, saying he had something to ask her. Rong Yu waited for her at the door. Rong Venge questioned Jiuling about where she had been last night, causing the servants and the carriage to return. Jiuling explained that it was New Year's Eve, so she visited her father, brothers, and sister-in-law to avoid bringing bad luck to the Rong residence. Rong Venge found Jiuling's explanation reasonable and let her go. Rong Yu had been waiting for Jiuling, and when they met, he held her ice-cold hand. Jiuling felt warmth in her heart and wondered if he would get angry if she ever lied to him. Arriving at the astrology pavilion, Jiuling accompanied Rong Yu inside and stayed in the street while he attended his class. Suddenly, it started to rain, and Rong Venge appeared, covering Jiuling with an umbrella. Jiuling showed a relieved smile upon seeing her senior. The two went to a street corner, and by that time, the rain had stopped. Feeling guilty for arriving late and unable to save the He family father and son, the Xunnan Prince wanted to take Jiuling with him. Jiuling hesitated in her heart. Rong Yu was studying calligraphy and arrived with an umbrella when it rained. Miss Jiang from the Zhongyong Duke's family and her younger brother went to the street and saw Jiuling talking to a man. They intentionally approached them to provoke a conflict and asked who the man was. Rong Yu arrived and said it was a man, which angered Miss Jiang as she insulted Rong Yu. Jiuling, furious, grabbed her by the neck and gave her a stern lecture. The young prince quickly pulled his sister away. The Zhongyong Duke received a report that Minister Song had been attacked, but the culprit hadn't been caught. They suspected Jiuling, but Rong Venge confirmed that she had an alibi. Jiuling wanted to talk to the Xunnan Prince, and Rong Yu was on high alert. At the restaurant, Jiuling arranged a meal for them, and Rong Yu realized that the Xunnan Prince wanted to take Jiuling with him. In anger, he spilled tea and accidentally burned his hand. Jiuling comforted him and asked Zhan Ping to take him home for treatment. Jiuling told her senior that she couldn't go with him, as she needed to stay with Rong Yu and seek vengeance for her father and brothers. Her senior respected her decision and, for safety reasons, left a martially skilled maidservant with her. He also left Jiuling with the prescription he had researched for Rong Yu's treatment.
