Pledge of Allegiance 山河之影 Episode 23

When the palace was on duty, Lu Zheng fell asleep lying on the table. He dreamed that Lu Yulin told him the meaning of Yu Mingsuo ten years ago. After waking up, Lu Zheng realized something, got up and left immediately.

In the Wenhua Palace, Li Wu finally found the fish lock, but he had to put it back when he heard the sound outside the door. Yuan Zhongdao and Lu Zheng walked into the hall, Lu Zheng put Yu Mingsuo into the water, and Yu Mingsuo spit out the cipher text. Yuan Zhongdao looked at the cipher text, and it turned out that it contained the anagrams that Li Yan told Song Heming back then. Li Wu eavesdropped and learned the cipher text and left. Because he wanted to confront the emperor, he even asked Boss Shen for help.

In the secret room of the bell tower, Yuan Zhongdao felt that he owed Zhang Junqing and wanted to betroth her to Lu Zheng. Lu Zheng refused, saying that Zhang Junqing already had his own heart. Yuan Zhongdao understood Lu Zheng's intentions and asked him to remember his identity as a loyal minister. After Zhang Junqing left the secret room, he fell to the ground suddenly. Lu Zheng helped her back to the room, and then wrote a divorce letter and put it on the table.

The palace is on duty, and Li Wu and Shu Tang, who are wearing night clothes and covering their faces, meet here. Shu Tang wrote down the ciphertext that Li Wu overheard. The two deduced the location of the firearms based on the ciphertext and realized that the firearms were hidden on the boat and had been floating in the canal. Seeing his smooth talk, Shu Tang couldn't help getting up and taking off his mask, expressing that he guessed that he was Li Wu. At this moment, Li Wu suddenly poured wine into Shu Tang, causing Shu Tang to faint.

Li Wu came to the Water Affairs Pavilion of the Water Transport Wharf to check the number written in the cipher text. Uncle Wang at the Water Affairs Pavilion reminded them that these ships were all black ships. At night, Lu Zheng pretended to be a worker and looked through the boxes at the pier and found the firearms in the box. At this time, Li Wu and Boss Shen were sitting in the cabin and looking at Lu Zheng. Boss Shen lamented that Lu Zheng was cheated, but in fact there were only a few guns and two cannons inside. Li Wu said that Zhang Ji's silk and satin pavement has a secret road, and the firearms can be intercepted halfway by the water boat, and then transported to the bell tower.

The next day, Li Dongfang told Li Wu that he knew what he and Boss Shen were doing behind the scenes, and Li Wu pretended that he and Boss Shen were just trying to make money. Li Dongfang asked Li Wu if he really didn't know about the firearms. Li Wu said that he was very afraid of the punishment of the imperial prison, so he dared to lie. Li Dongfang finally left Zhenfusi with satisfaction.

At the porridge shop outside the city, Boss Shen asked the guys to hide the firearms in the boxes with the help of porridge, and then followed a group of people to the gate of the city. Li Wu came here on horseback, expressing his sympathy for the emperor, and ordered him to open the city gate to let the exiles enter the city. The gates of the city were opened wide, and the firearms were successfully transported into the city. On the other side, Lu Zheng, who thought he had intercepted the firearm, led Jin Yiwei into the yard, but found that many boxes were filled with stones.

At night, watching the No. 47 ship approaching, Li Wu led Jin Yiwei to search for the ship. While Jin Yiwei was searching desperately on the boat, a group of Ye Bu Shou suddenly appeared. Li Wu and the Jinyiwei finally rushed out of the ambush and walked out of the cabin. Li Dongfang thanked him for sending the firearm to him. Li Wu was disdainful, and revealed Li Dongfang's identity as the illegitimate son of King Yan. Li Dongfang drew his sword and pointed at Li Wu, while Lu Zheng appeared with a cannon. Li Wu said that he was a child in the prison, and asked Lu Zheng if he still remembered the revenge of killing his father. Lu Zheng shouted and ordered, and the cabin was shattered by shells.

A month later, Lu Zheng told Yuan Zhongdao that the firearms were not in the hands of the King of Yan. Yuan Zhongdao said that King Yan's retreat to Longjiang was deterred by the two cannons, and King Yan did not know that the firearms were not in the hands of the emperor. Yuan Zhongdao said that he wanted to take the life of King Yan on behalf of the saint, and Lu Zheng believed that it was his duty to assassinate King Yan. Yuan Zhongdao told Lu Zheng that going there would only ruin his reputation, because he was going out of the city as a rebellious party, Lu Zheng smiled and said he didn't care.

At night, Shu Tang took care of Li Wu who had just woken up, and then Li Wu woke up and found that the person in front of him was Boss Shen. Boss Shen told him that Shu Tang risked going out of the palace every day to take care of him, and his plan succeeded.

On the other side, Lu Zheng changed the flying fish suit, let Jin Yiwei cut him on the back of the neck, and walked into the imperial prison. Afterwards, Lu Zheng, covered in scars, was let out of the city gate. Boss Shen took Li Wu to the room where the firearms were hidden, saying that now the whole Daming would listen to him.
