Strange Tales of Tang Dynasty Episode 34

Fact and fiction

Lu and Su have split up to find more clues about Sass. They both agree that the man that was killed was not him. They are not among the few that know about the wooden bird. They have a good drawing of the woman they are looking for thanks to XiJun. The officials are not helping. Lu is seen as the new kid on the block and not deserving of assist since they were collecting info for twelve years. They won’t work with Su either because we still don’t know who exactly was behind Di’s death at beginning of drama. It is coming full circle and they do have the makings of a net for Sass…so against all odds progress is being made. Su would have been better in Resentment Tower, he is much better on his feet. Lu studied well and is even complimented on it, but it was fiction not fact with some of the details. She laughs and tosses the book on the table. His three friends are not having the good time they expected.🤣🫣 They are asked to go again and settle for an escort each for the upcoming magic show. They return but not happy with the options. The young beggar is hired to deliver treats to the lady in question. She graciously lets the child in and appreciates the treats of cherry dumplings. The second time he brought roast camel, but a bird of prey intercepts him. He wakes up a lot later with his money and purchase still with him, so he heads for the hall and gifts her a second time. This time she asks him if he wants a drink with her and he says no and quickly runs away. Yingtao accompanies Su’s to the author’s home and she is far from impressed. She sees an indulged old man surrounding himself with wine and women. Su brought up their mutual acquaintance investigator Di. The author is cordial, but offers no further information about Sass.
