The Inextricable Destiny Episode 22 Recap
> The Inextricable Destiny Recap
Jiuling was brought to the outskirts by a group of assassins who intended to bury her alive. Just as the assassins were about to draw their knives to bury Jiuling, Zhan Ping was racing over, and in a desperate struggle, Jiuling managed to fight back. The furious assassins tried to kill Jiuling with their knives when Rong Yu and his men arrived. They rescued Jiuling from the assassins, and Jiuling, seeing a faint smile on Rong Yu's face, felt relief.
Upon learning that Rong Yu had awakened, Rong Jiong quickly arrived to visit. Rong Yu told Rong Jiong that he was aware of everything now, including her alliance with sinister individuals, which led to the destruction of Jia Lin's pillars. He questioned if this was the path the Astrology Pavilion should take. Rong Jiong replied that everything he did was for Rong Yu's sake, but Rong Yu couldn't accept that and insisted on being punished for his mistakes. He respected Rong Jiong's influence on him and promised to leave this place after setting the Astrology Pavilion on the right path, taking responsibility for Rong Jiong's actions.
Rong Yu officially became the ninth-generation heir of the Astrology Pavilion. He was determined to rebuild the Astrology Pavilion with the other astrologers. Rong Jiong refused to admit his wrongdoings and left, continually claiming that it was others who harmed the He family. As Rong Yu watched him depart, he knelt down deeply, realizing it was their final farewell.
The Regent berated his subordinates angrily, calling them worthless. At this moment, someone delivered a letter to him, leaving him deep in thought. The Regent visited the Rong residence, inquiring about Rong Jiong's whereabouts. Rong Yu claimed that Rong Jiong was suffering from a severe illness and had left for recuperation. The Regent found this situation suspicious and knew that Rong Yu was supporting Jiuling. Rong Yu mentioned that he was on his way to the Ministry of Punishments to clarify the baseless rumor that his wife had set fire to the Astrology Pavilion.
The Regent left in anger, feeling that Rong Yu was putting on an act for him. He later learned that the men he sent to guard the gold mine had been intercepted by someone. When Rong Yu met with the Regency Council, the Emperor became furious. The officials who had participated in Jiuling's arrest were all intimidated. Jiuling awaited Rong Yu outside and learned that all those who were involved in her framing had faced punishment. However, everyone believed she was dead. She broke into Rong Yu's words, expressing her concern for his health above everything else. She only wanted to be with him.
Rong Yu, with mixed emotions, reminded her not to forget that they had separated. Once she recovered, they would leave this place and go to the Southlands. As long as they left, everything would be fine. Jiuling thought that Rong Yu's excessive medication had made him forget the times they spent together. However, Rong Yu insisted he had remembered everything and believed that they had made a wrong start. He vowed to rectify it gradually. Jiuling watched Rong Yu leave, tears filling her eyes. Cheng Bi was concerned about her, but Jiuling told Cheng Bi she couldn't burden him any longer. Cheng Bi could return to the Southlands. Cheng Bi found it strange that Jiuling wouldn't join her in the Southlands, but Jiuling insisted that she wanted to stay here because this was her home. She asked Cheng Bi to convey her apologies to her senior brother.
The Emperor, in disguise, visited Jiuling and saw her emaciated condition, feeling deeply distressed. He informed Jiuling that she had risked her life to burn down the Astrology Pavilion, leading to Rong Jiong's eviction from the Rong residence. The subordinates who were involved had disappeared. He told Jiuling that he and Jiuling were getting closer to their goal. Jiuling had grown up under his protection, and now, it was time for her to take on a new role. He wanted Jiuling to focus on recovery, and the rest would be handled by him.
The Crown Prince was in the Southlands, waiting to meet the King of the Southlands. He expressed his intention to take his sister away. However, the King of the Southlands didn't take him seriously and asked why he wanted to take the princess away, to the Southlands, where she would be treated when she fell ill, and buried when she died. Was there anything wrong with that? The Crown Prince confronted the King, blaming him for his sister's illness. The King argued that he wasn't responsible for her illness and that the Crown Prince had mistaken him.
Tan Tan advised Jiuling to return to the Rong residence and not stay in the Southlands. Jiuling believed she had wronged Rong Yu too much and couldn't face him. However, Tan Tan persuaded her, explaining that Rong Yu had healed and believed she was still the same person who didn't like him. Everything Rong Yu did was for her. Jiuling was touched by Tan Tan's words.
In the Regent's mansion, a spy was discovered, and a tiger tally was found in their hands. The Regent held the tiger tally, knowing it represented the Emperor's intent. He regretted being too lenient with the young Emperor. Rong Yu held lectures at the academy while Jiuling asked Rong Yu to divine their marital fate based on her birthdate.
