Wonderland of Love Episode 6 Recap

Upon learning that Cui Lin was trapped in Han Li's mansion, Liu Chengfeng promptly ordered someone to take the banner of the Cui army to negotiate. However, before they could say more than a few words, an envoy sent by Sun Jing burst in and accused Han Li of having a private relationship with Cui Yi. Caught in a dilemma, Han Li had no choice but to invite Li Ni and Cui Lin. As soon as they stepped out, Li Ni and Cui Lin, in perfect harmony, attempted to break free from the encirclement. However, Cui Lin's foot injury resurfaced, making her escape difficult. Lv Chengzhi quickly explained that Han Li had merely invited them to the front hall for a banquet without any ulterior motives. Li Ni was somewhat doubtful but carried Cui Lin to the front hall.

The envoy from the Cui army was puzzled upon seeing this "Cui Gongzi," but upon observing Cui Lin's gestures, he swallowed his doubts. The envoy sent by Sun Jing feigned goodwill, inviting "Cui Gongzi" to visit the capital. However, Li Ni paid him little attention and was more concerned about Cui Lin's injury. This envoy, feeling slighted, grew displeased and no longer wished to play along, rising from his seat and accusing "Cui Gongzi" of plotting rebellion. Only then did Li Ni raise his head and proactively propose a sword dance for entertainment, with Cui Lin providing the accompaniment.

As the sword stirred the bamboo leaves, it kicked up dust and under the sunlight, cast a dazzling path. The cold sword cut through this path, growing even more brilliant. The song was moving, the dance graceful, and everyone was enthralled. Li Ni's hand rose and the blade descended, a flash of cold light aiming directly at the envoy's neck. In an instant, fresh blood gushed out, and the envoy of Sun Jing fell lifeless. The festive banquet was thrown into chaos, but Han Li at his seat remained unmoved, even looking upon everything with interest. In reality, Han Li had already struck a deal with Li Ni. He had only needed to kill the envoy of Sun Jing for Cui Lin to leave safely. Han Li, though not a good man, was relatively trustworthy and, as promised, had someone escort Cui Lin back to the Cui army camp. Before leaving, Cui Lin gave Li Ni a keepsake from her mother, a hairpin, hoping he would stay safe.

As Han Li was contemplating how "Cui Gongzi" and Miss He were deeply in love, he was surprised by the arrival of another "Cui Gongzi." Realizing that the people in his mansion were impostors, Han Li flew into a rage and ordered them to be killed. Li Ni did not hide the truth anymore, stating that he had posed as "Cui Gongzi" under Miss He's instructions. Hearing this, Han Li was half-convinced and half-skeptical. Li Ni proposed a solution, asserting that he could help resolve Bingzhou's urgent crisis. In the current tense situation, Han Li had no choice but to take a risky move, following the advice of this "Cui family dropout," and sending someone to negotiate with Pei Yuan.

Soon, Pei Yuan provided a response, agreeing to cooperate with Bingzhou to sandwich the Cui army from both front and rear and seize the military provisions. However, he had one condition: he wanted to pass through Bingzhou. Li Ni continued to suggest that Han Li should pretend to agree to let them pass through, exploiting the strategic location of Bingzhou to face a force of ten with just one. Once the Western Army entered Xia Luo Valley, they could strike them from the front and rear, and it would be difficult for Sun Jing, who was far away in the capital, to interfere. Han Li's eyes sparkled with admiration for Li Ni's strategical acumen, and he planned to hire him as an advisor after achieving victory. Li Ni made his position clear, stating that he was willing to make the effort.

Seeing that Cui Lin's hairpin had gone missing, Liu Chengfeng found a very similar one and gave it to her. Cui Lin was pleased but explained that the original hairpin held special meaning for her, and even though the one in her hand was identical, it couldn't replace the place it held in her heart. At this moment, the real hairpin was being held by Li Ni, contemplating how he would hold Cui Lin accountable once they were outside. Soon, a loud commotion from outside signaled that war had broken out again.
