The Company Episode 9

Liu Qing comb

Before I heard the story of the comb I thought the brother cleverly disguised himself as a woman to get by BiZhi and BeiLu. With flashback to battle where sister died it was revealed that isn’t what happened. They fought valiantly but there were too many and the brother succumbed to rescue sister. With his last breaths he gave her the comb and told her what it could do. He said that women had used it to become great generals so he was granting his sister her ultimate wish—to not be bound by the rules for women and to live her life freely. A plan was set to get the corrupt official who had the Gu family and service decimated. Ironically the friend did not reveal his plan, nor did she, but it played out well even tho impromptu shuffling of hostages was required. The friend posed as a dancer and that old man was as tough as nails…he didn’t flinch. When he was making a point to his son and had the servant slapped for several minutes til he acquiesced to his father’s wishes. Huai Jin one upped the friend by posing as the bride. She used a flexible sword and stabbed that old demon center mass. BiZhi assisted by grabbing the grandson while they all exited the wedding hall. BeiLu had horses and a Molotov cocktail to discourage being immediately followed. The friend was buried by the brother’s grave but he was consoled that the one he loved still lived and that he had help her avenge her brother. She surprised everybody by not using the comb one last time. She opted to not assume her brother’s identity but to live her life under her terms as a woman. BeiLu spoke up that things would change for women in the future and that they could have a life free of marriage if they chose. She was hopeful knowing that day would come tho she would probably never live to see it. They are then in the time rift market telling the Lord of the market their story. BiZhi composed a suitable ending for her as he reminded her this was about life and not a story. BeiLu has been asking questions and paying attention to the bracelet BiZhi wears. His puppy has wreaked havoc with his friend’s comics and collectible figurines. 😂🤣 Puppy is banished from the room. The episode ends with Su family car crash. It was a deliberate hit and run. Whoever hit them was not expecting any survivors. Now to wonder why a direct attack on this family and is there a ZiYi connection?
