《A Journey to Love》E2
Episode 2: Lou Qingqiang sets fire
In the dark night of Wudu, Lou Qingqiang, the Tiqi of Liudaotang, led his men to the Zhuyiwei branch and designed a fire to let everyone die quietly. However, they found that one body was missing.At the same time, Ren Ruyi was hiding in a house to treat her injuries. She witnessed the murder of her companions. It was too late to save her and she was seriously injured.
Despite this, Ren Ruyi still wanted to go to Liudaotang to save people, but happened to bump into a man who called himself Mr. Yue meeting Zhao Ji, the leader of Liudaotang.Only then did she learn that she had betrayed the location of the Zhu Yiwei branch, and also learned that Linglong was tortured by Lou Qingqiang.Therefore, Ren Ruyi wrote the names of three people in the death book.
At the corner of an alley, when Lou Qingqiang was about to bump into Ren Ruyi, Ren Ruyi heard a noise, so she climbed over the wall and entered Ning Yuanzhou's old house next door.At this time, Ning Yuanzhou's old residence was holding the funeral of Hall Master Ning. However, the coffin placed in the center of the mourning hall was empty, so Ren Ruyi took advantage of the situation and hid in it.
Zhao Ji led his men to break into Ning Yuanzhou's old house and wanted to challenge Ning Yuanzhou.Yuanlu, who came to attend the funeral, stepped forward to stop him.Although Yuan Lu was outnumbered, Zhao Ji used Yuan Lu as a hostage to lure out Ning Yuanzhou, who had just returned to Wudu.Ren Ruyi, who was hiding in the coffin, also looked very nervous.
Ning Yuanzhou was unwilling to obey Zhao Ji's request, but Zhao Ji treated Ning Yuanzhou as the leader of the Six Paths Hall, and even kicked over the spiritual tablet of the old hall master Ning.He even suggested that as long as Ning Yuanzhou went to Anguo to inquire about information, he might be reinstated to his original position.
Ning Yuanzhou did not agree, but Zhao Ji showed a very disrespectful attitude.Ning Yuanzhou couldn't bear it anymore and executed Zhao Ji in public, and listed the church rules that Zhao Ji had violated, and it was natural that Zhao Ji should be dealt with.The members of Liudaotang who came were also convinced, so Ning Yuanzhou asked them to conceal the news of his return, and then stayed at the Ning family's old house to recuperate.
After everyone left, Yuan Lu seemed particularly excited about Ning Yuanzhou's safe return.However, Ning Yuanzhou asked him to close the door because he had already discovered Ren Ruyi in the coffin and was not sure whether she was an enemy or a friend, so he took action very ruthlessly.
Ren Ruyi knew that Ning Yuanzhou was very skilled, so she pretended to be a weak woman who had escaped from the workshop that Liu Daotang was searching for, and her statement was indeed heart-wrenching.Ning Yuanzhou didn't believe it, so he tested it out, and found that Ren Ruyi stood there without fighting back, so he relaxed his guard, and Ren Ruyi fell into his arms.
Late at night, Jiang Qiong went to see King Danyang and told him what he saw on the battlefield.Emperor Wu was captured by Li Tongguang, the Changqing Marquis of Anguo, and Chai Ming was also killed while rescuing Emperor Wu.At the same time, Jiang Qiong was the only surviving Tiandao member of Liudaotang. He was taken to see Emperor Wu who was a guest in Anjun's tent. Li Tongguang also asked him to send a message to King Danyang or Queen Wu, offering him one hundred thousand taels of gold.In exchange for the respect of a prince, Emperor Wu can be exchanged.
After King Danyang heard the news, he felt mixed emotions.In the early morning at the Ning family's old house, Ning Yuanzhou gently woke up Ren Ruyi, exchanged medicine with her and saw through Ren Ruyi's identity as Zhu Yiwei Baique, so he decided to let her leave.Ren Ruyi knew that Ning Yuanzhou had deep thoughts, but she also knew that the Ning family's old house was a safe hiding place, so she asked Ning Yuanzhou to stay.Ning Yuanzhou tested Ren Ruyi several times and even held down her freshly repaired wound.
Faced with Ning Yuanzhou's doubts, Ren Ruyi kept explaining, but Ning Yuanzhou's patience seemed to be getting less and less, and he was obviously not willing to let her stay.However, when Yuan Lu mentioned that his biological mother was similar to the place where Ren Ruyi stayed, Ning Yuanzhou finally relented and agreed to let Ren Ruyi stay.Despite this, Ning Yuanzhou decided to let Ren Ruyi be responsible for cleaning the house.
