Episode 20 recap: He Lan Xin Yue asked Tai Chu to leave.
He Lan Xin Yue returned the seedling that Tai Chu had previously given to her, indicating that she didn't want it anymore and asked Tai Chu to take it back. Tai Chu was shocked and asked He Lan Xin Yue why she did this, wondering if she was still mad at him. Actually, He Lan Xin Yue wanted Tai Chu to go back to where he should be and not stay by her side anymore. Tai Chu was incredibly surprised. He didn't expect that these were the pictures and plants from Xuefeng Mountain. He was happy but also felt guilty for making them leave their homeland. Princess Qiu Yi brought them here to make Tai Chu happy. People should not live in the past or the future; they should seize the present moment.
He Lan Xin Yue felt very sad here and wanted to find Tai Chu, but she also thought Princess Qiu Yi was beautiful, so Tai Chu was willing to bloom for her. He Lan Xin Yue's sister saw He Lan Xin Yue acting like this and said it was pathetic to act this way just for a tree.
He Lan Xin Yue's sister said it was useless for He Lan Xin Yue to be conflicted here; it would be better to go and ask Tai Chu directly. He Lan Xin Yue said she didn't know where Tai Chu was, but her sister said she knew, she just didn't want to think about it.
He Lan Xin Yue came to Princess Qiu Yi, who was swinging on a swing in the courtyard, with Tai Chu by her side. Princess Qiu Yi approached He Lan Xin Yue and said that she wanted He Lan Xin Yue to give Tai Chu freedom, that Tai Chu would belong to himself in the future.
He Lan Xin Yue said it was impossible, Tai Chu would only belong to her. He Lan Xin Yue took out the seedling and said that for Tai Chu, there was only one piece, but Tai Chu gave it to her. As long as she called for Tai Chu, regardless of whether Tai Chu wanted to or not, Tai Chu would come.
Princess Qiu Yi then realized that Tai Chu had also given such a thing to He Lan Xin Yue. She said that although He Lan Xin Yue claimed Tai Chu was free, for Tai Chu, it was only a master-servant relationship, and as a servant, there was no real freedom.
Princess Qiu Yi asked He Lan Xin Yue to let Tai Chu go and give him true freedom. She said that if He Lan Xin Yue didn't care, she wouldn't have come to her late at night.
He Lan Xin Yue returned the seedling that Tai Chu had previously given her, indicating that she didn't want it anymore and asked Tai Chu to take it back. Tai Chu was extremely shocked and asked He Lan Xin Yue why she was doing this, if she was still angry with him.
He Lan Xin Yue wanted Tai Chu to go back to where he should be and not accompany her anymore. He Lan Xin Yue expressed that Tai Chu should not wade into this mess and that he could leave. Tai Chu said that he didn't know many things and often made He Lan Xin Yue angry. If He Lan Xin Yue was angry, then he wouldn't appear in front of her anymore.
Tai Chu said that he had already given his seedling to He Lan Xin Yue and wouldn't take it back. He told He Lan Xin Yue that if she needed him, she could summon him. Zhao Chen Yang thought that since He Lan Xin Yue had the prophecy, Shang Guan Zui would definitely be cautious of Princess Danyang. He didn't expect Shang Guan Zui to be so bold, thinking that the Northern Rong soldiers were strong and powerful, and Da Shang had many strategists. If they joined forces, they would surely come back to attack Donglin.
Zhao Guang Ye asked Zhao Chen Yang to go back first and said he would think about it. He Lan Xin Yue fell ill, and Zhao Guang Ye came to see her. He Lan Xin Yue held Zhao Guang Ye's hand and said that she hadn't told anyone, but she really missed Tai Chu and asked him not to go to someone else.
Zhao Guang Ye sent many assassins to kill Shang Guan Zui, but they were unsuccessful as Shang Guan Zui had Northern Rong elite guards protecting him. Zhao Guang Ye didn't expect Bei Rong Wang to give Shang Guan Zui the elite guards.
He Lan Xin Yue recovered from her illness, and Zhao Guang Ye called her over, saying that now Shang Guan Zui wanted to form an alliance with Bei Rong. Both their countries, Dongnan and Da Shang, were in great danger. Da Shang was not an impenetrable fortress, and if Shang Guan Zui died, chaos would erupt there.
Zhao Guang Ye wanted Tai Chu to assassinate Shang Guan Zui, but He Lan Xin Yue disagreed, saying that Tai Chu was a tree and couldn't kill. Zhao Guang Ye said that he had no other choice, otherwise, he wouldn't have suggested it. He Lan Xin Yue stated that they would take the path of revenge themselves and that Tai Chu shouldn't have been involved in the first place.
