The Inextricable Destiny Episode 9 Recap
> The Inextricable Destiny Recap
Since the last time He Jiuling saw Rong Yu outside the window, Rong Yu has been waiting here every day. To comfort him, Jiuling specially made two scarecrows, dressed in her own red clothes and Rong Yu's blue shirt, and stood there. Rong Yu kept his eyes fixed on them, with a constant smile on his face. When Rong Jiulong saw this from a distance, his heart grew heavy.
Meanwhile, Jiuling was at home tirelessly researching the formula for the antidote to help Rong Yu. On this day, He Liang and He Chenzhou went to court together, and their colleagues inquired about Jiuling and Rong Yu's marriage. He Liang couldn't provide an answer. He Chenzhou, knowing their ill intentions, explained that both his second and third brothers were unmarried, and considering the current circumstances with the young master of their house suffering from a severe illness, the marriage would have to wait. He urged everyone to be cautious.
However, when Rong Jun approached from the side, he said that the wedding preparations were almost complete, and they would invite everyone for a celebration when the time came. Hearing this, the ministers quickly expressed their congratulations. After He Liang and others left, he asked Rong Jun in confusion why he had changed his stance. Rong Jun sternly replied that He Jiuling was a He family member by birth, and if she lived or died, she was a He family concern. The marriage was already set.
Seeing Rong Jun walk away, He Liang was furious. Jiuling was his beloved daughter, and he couldn't stand others treating her this way. He Chenzhou also asked his father with concern if Jiuling and Rong Yu's marriage needed to continue. He Liang returned home and told his family that he had decided to annul Jiuling and Rong Yu's engagement. Everyone agreed with his decision, except Jiuling, who believed that if they canceled the marriage due to Rong Yu's illness, the family would be shamed, and He Liang would be blamed. He Liang, for his daughter's happiness, didn't mind the gossip.
Jiuling ran off in anger, and He Liang instructed his family to keep an eye on her to prevent any further trouble. He then prepared to make an announcement to the family. He Liang and He Chenzhou went to the court to face the king, who again emphasized the importance of guarding South Jiang. He Liang declared that the He family was willing to relocate to South Jiang, protect the people, and live or die with the Jialin Kingdom.
Rong Yu continued to wait by the window, and the two scarecrows in the courtyard had deteriorated due to exposure to the elements. He looked increasingly haggard. He Shan and Zhan Ping were anxious and couldn't persuade Rong Yu to leave. Meanwhile, Jiuling continued her research on the antidote at home. Suddenly, she heard a commotion outside. When she checked, she found her servants, under the command of her elder sister-in-law, packing up their belongings.
After asking her sister-in-law, Jiuling learned that their entire family was relocating from the capital. Jiuling understood her father's intentions and, angry, went to confront him, blaming him for putting her family's future in jeopardy just to cancel her engagement with the Rong family. She was willing to stay here if her family insisted on leaving. He Liang sternly told her that it wasn't up to her; the king knew about Jiuling's martial training and had appointed her as the Left General.
Seeing that her father's decision was final, Jiuling knew she couldn't argue further. With a heavy heart, she told her father and her brothers that she was willing to go to South Jiang to protect their home and country.
As the departure date neared, Jiuling was torn. She really wanted to see Rong Yu one last time, but she also felt it was inappropriate. After much thought, Jiuling decided to have one final meeting with Rong Yu. At night, she climbed the wall with a torch and reached the Rong residence. When Rong Yu found out, he ignored Rong Jun's attempts to stop him and climbed onto the roof with great difficulty. The two lovers held hands on the roof, sharing a deep kiss, bidding their final farewell.
The whole family arrived in South Jiang, and Jiuling's second brother and sister-in-law also joined them. The family was reunited in South Jiang.
