Legend of the Female General Episode 21

Five Stars

Since the battle is over in Jiyang, peaceful again. This feels weird, the Young ladies were talking to HY the famous Female General, and HY was encouraging them to do whatever they want. While the ladies showed HY a pouch that the Bride must embroider herself for her dear husband, every stitch resembles her love for her husband, and He Yan was interested (in her hubby), she asked them about the Pouch and immediately all the Young ladies said "IT'S FOR GENERAL FENGYUN RIGHT!!" She wants to embroider one for XJ (the moon, that's when he realised that he was the Moon HY waa refering to). Not bad, HY is spending time with the young ladies doing embroidery 🪡. He Yan can win using any weapon but embroidery is really a challenging task for her. The young ladies suggested cooking for General Fengyun to please him. But she knows nothing about Cooking. When HY gave XJ the bowl, that smile of his🤭, precious. HY made salty noodles (too much salt, XJ couldn't help but frown)🤣. But he couldn't say no to her face🫠. When HY wanted to taste the noodles cooked by her, he just finished them at turbo speed so HY won't be able to know that she made the dish salty, HY was speechless🤣. HY was looking at the robes hanged on the bar to see if they were torn, so she could mend them (or try to), but there was none and just as she was going back to her room, XJ wanted her to stay some more time and he immediately tore his sleeve so she would stay with him a bit more, and HY heard it🤣, her smile said so much (like Xiao Dudu do you like me that much?🤣). It was obvious that he deliberately tore his sleeve but both of them were aware of what they were doing🤭. HY took her chance🌝, and asked him to take the robe off immediately 🌝🤣. Feinu really gotta learn about "Knocking on the Door" 🤣, he always enters the room at the wrong time 😂. Anyways Chai Anxi woke up. Chai Anxi could've fled but he fought against the Wutuos, and his hatred for General Xiao was because of his deceased son, Earlier XJ was leading the Vanguard in the battle and CA's son was one of em too, but XJ returned alive and even gained fame and prestige while his son died. XJ can't forget such a battle, 216 Xiao Soldiers died in that battle. His son Captain Chai Qian, was a brave man. Chai Anxi, 2 biggest irreversible mistakes of his life one was distrusting the Commander he's been following for Years, second was underestimating the son he raised himself, to be honest it hurts to see this petition, so many blood thumb prints. But what he did was a Sin, and it isn't a pardonable crime. Finally CA's talking about the Battle of Mingshui, BEWARE OF HE RUFEI! he told CA to hold back General Xiao's plea for help for a few days and someone influential was involved. XJ's asking the Princess to conceal the matter about her identity, since she joined the army disguised as a man. The Princess agreed and even reminded XJ that she is the only disciple of Liu Buwang and Jiyang will always be her Maiden Home. CZ and HY were talking bout Xu Jingfu and she was advising him to stop working for the villain. He offered (his feelings) to blaze a different trail for her, but she rejected him straightforward, that I need no one to blaze a trail on my behalf. XJ was a bit jelly to see that HY came alone just to bid him farewell. However Feinu suddenly came and reported that Chai Anxi's dead! Ofcourse Chu Zhao knows about this assassination, he knew about the Wutuo agents on the mission of killing Chai Anxi.

Schemes unraveling

The ladies do their best to try to teach He Yan the basic techniques of embroidery and cooking. There was effort put into both, but technique takes time to learn.😝 While it is indeed a trope about men dealing with bad food, there is still a lot of truth in what men will endure for the one they love when the meal doesn’t go as planned. He has not seen the pouch she made, but he will treasure it because she made it. Chai Anxi has awakened and he is more than ready to say why he did what he did. He was told to delay and this resulted in the death of his son. He firmly believed Xiao Jue used this as opportunity to advance his career. Xiao Jue painted a much different picture. They were greatly outnumbered and delayed. 216 volunteered to go fight to make their way to the general. Xiao Jue provided the signatures and prints of the volunteers and Chai Anxi collapsed when he saw his son’s signature. His last words were to beware general He RuFei. He Yan knows nothing of the meeting discussed. I am wondering if the brother was put up by the politicians to insert himself here, with the hopes that the general, son and He Yan all die for smoothest transition. This seems a likely scenario because the brother spoke up at court denouncing the happenings. This all fed into Chai Anxi’s belief about how things happened. Chu hears the testimony and opts to wait in having him killed. While they are at a meeting with the princess, word reaches them that Wutuo assassins killed Chai Anxi. The interesting part is that Chu left the Wutuo token for Xiao Jue to find. He knows the commander will not let it rest til he has discovered the truth. Here Mr gray again helps and hurts so it is never clear what side he is on or next move will be. He has learned what truly appeals to He Yan and why he will never be more than a friend to her. He plans to blaze the trail for her to ease her way for military ventures. He does not realize how arrogant he is being thinking she needs him to do this for her. She reminds him that her partner will walk with her side by side to blaze together. Like Cheng, he tries to get a confession from her that she chooses the commander, but he comes up and interrupts the conversation. He is not happy they are meeting and makes that point clear. The Princess and Xiao Jue have a private conversation where he asks her to keep He Yan’s identity a secret. She reminds him that He Yan is the last disciple of Liu BuWang and will always have a place in Jiyang. That she will not permit any bullying of her while she has anything to say about it. Chu has returned the mermaid dress and that is one less thing to tie him to He Yan. The guard looked happier with that choice. He Yan’s mind is swirling as she is going through her mind the course of the day she arrived for General Xiao. She knows she had no such meeting, but how to prove it. This is not boding well for our couple and I have a very long wait to find out what happens next.
