Pledge of Allegiance 山河之影 Episode 11

The sky began to rain heavily. In the mansion, Li Wu turned around and saw Shu Tang, who was well-dressed, and stayed where she was for a while. Seeing that Shu Tang felt that the shoes were uncomfortable, Li Wu squatted down to change her shoes. When the rain stopped, Shu Tang asked Li Wu when he would leave. Li Wu said to Shu Tang that without all this, he could sit and watch the sunset with her like this, and handed the drugged tea to Shu Tang. Feeling that the two would not be able to meet without all these, Li Wu affirmed that he would find Shu Tang. Shu Tang drank tea and sang the only song Li Wu knew. After Shu Tang fainted, Li Wu put her in a box on the boat bound for Peiping, and asked the boatman to take good care of Shu Tang.

On the other side, as soon as Wang Chongxi ran to the palace, Lu Zheng stepped forward and kicked him down. Wang Chongxi quickly knelt down and begged for mercy, but Lu Zheng slapped him several times. Wang Chongxi got angry and said that he just wanted to live. Lu Zheng grabbed him and said that Wang Kegong entrusted Wang Chongxi and the palace to himself in order to keep the secret, and that Wang Kegong was indeed a loyal minister. Li Wu, who was hiding behind the wall, looked at the two silently.

In the file library, Li Wu pulled out his dagger and wanted to attack Chen Jizhen. Chen Jizhen suddenly asked if the errand was done. Li Wu hid the dagger and begged Chen Jizhen to hand over the case to him, and he left the capital and never came back. Chen Jizhen stepped forward to take the dagger in Li Wu's arms and took him to the inner room, and introduced to him that the person who was tied up by the iron chain in the inner room was Zhou Tiejiang, who was blacksmithing iron for military households in Ji'e Lane in Hong Wunian. Zhou Tiejiang rushed forward angrily and wanted to grab Li Wu, but was held tightly by the iron chain behind him, and Li Wu was scared and hid aside. Chen Jizhen killed Zhou Tiejiang with a dagger, expressing that he wanted to watch Lu Yulin and his son lose everything, and handed the dagger to Li Wu, who looked at him in horror.

At Yimen, Lu Zheng grabbed Li Wu, who appeared suddenly, and said that behind the investigation against the party was actually a court struggle, and the organizer of the case against the party was a pawn, and he would undoubtedly die. Li Wu shook off Lu Zheng's hand, saying that wealth must be found in danger, and the two cannot be friends. Lu Zheng saw that Li Wu really wanted to be the host, so he handed over the arms handover form to Li Wu.

At the banquet at Zhenfu Si Yamen, Lu Yulin told Li Wu that he planned to find an opportunity to transfer Si Xiangnan away, and then hand over the first major case to Li Wu. In the room, the six officials sitting around looked at Li Wu, who was lying drunk on the table, and when they wanted to take out the handover slip from his arms, Lu Zheng led Jin Yiwei to open the door and take these officials away. After Li Wu woke up, Lu Zheng told him that he had interrogated a big man overnight—Wang Zhong, Supervisor of Ceremonies. Just when Li Wu thought he missed the good show, Lu Zheng suddenly asked him when he voted for Yan, and who was his backer in the Zhenfu Division. Li Wu was very confused, and suddenly saw Lu Yulin and Si Xiangnan standing outside the door, and was taken aback. Lu Zheng walked out of the room and said that he was the only sponsor of the anti-party case.

In the imperial palace, Wang Zhong was brought to the center of the courtyard by Jin Yiwei. He knelt and crawled in front of Lu Zheng, expressing that he only wanted to die quickly. In the Jinluan Palace, Yuan Zhongdao was very angry when he saw that the booklet said that the Ministry of War, the Ministry of Industry and the local officials had people who were facing the King of Yan. Lu Zheng told Yuan Zhongdao that Wang Zhong confessed before his death, and was ordered by King Yan to transfer Ma Zheng to the Ministry of War. Lu Zheng analyzed the situation in front of Yuan Zhongdao, and boldly guessed that King Yan wanted to sneak attack on the capital. Seeing that Lu Zheng was about to leave, Yuan Zhongdao asked him why he wanted to imprison Li Dongfang and Lu Yulin. Lu Zheng said that it was a bitter plan for him to label them as rebellious against the party.

At night, Lu Zheng came to Lu Yulin's room, and Lu Yulin told Lu Zheng that Li Wu, the 25th year of Hongwu, replaced the son of a prisoner in the prison, and he was looking for the whereabouts of Yu Mingsuo. Ten years ago in Chicken and Goose Lane, the young Lu Zheng had just taken the dagger from Tiejiang Zhou when he was snatched away by Li Wu. Song Heming came on horseback, and Lu Zheng told him that Li Wu had snatched his dagger, so Song Heming grabbed Li Wu and brought him back to the Zhenfu Division. The young Lu Zheng begged Song Heming to let Li Wu go, but Song Heming just asked his subordinates to take Lu Zheng back to the official residence. Seeing that Lu Zheng still didn't want to believe it, Lu Yulin said that he could find Yu Mingsuo as long as he followed Li Wu.

When Lu Zheng came to the restaurant in Ji'e Lane, he heard a child yelling that someone was giving out eggs, but only for girls, Lu Zheng was thoughtful. On the other side, Zhang Junqing left after drawing a mark on the wall, and Lu Zheng only vaguely saw her back when he came. Halfway through, Zhang Junqing was caught by two men, and she killed them with the weapon hidden in her hand.
