Emperor told Eunuch to release the information of his terminal illness to the public. At that time, Han Ye was MIA, presumed dead or alive. There did not seem to be an alternate Han available to succeed Emperor. In reality, wouldn't this announcement have impacted the court and the stability of the kingdom? The border kingdoms/dynasties could use this weakness in the Jing dynasty, to plan an invasion.
So let me get this straight, they're gonna lure him out of his self defeat in a faux wedding and she finally skewers…
I am just watching and waiting for the finale. Today's episodes were anti-climatic for me, although we saw Emperor capitulate finally. I was waiting for him to drop to his knees in front of Ziyuan, and beg for forgiveness for the massacre of 80,000 soldiers and her family.
Episode 37 1) Han Ye took the Bullet Train from Qin to Jing. He got home in no time. 2) Mingxi is dying in a few days. Did he tell Madam Di to transplant his eyes onto Han Ye? His last will and testament and his wedding gift to the couple!
Episode 37 is retitled Legend of Excalibur. The Sword of Destiny is Excalibur. I am guessing it was General Di's sword that was bequeathed to Emperor. Madam Di is Merlin. For the matriach of the Di clan, she had two scenes only. Her mission was to tell Emperor Delulu to break Excalibur, to find the secret letter. Who, in their right mind, would conceal the edict in the time capsule sword? If she never told anyone about it in her lifetime, it would never be found in a million years. Indiana Jones could never even find it.
Emperor Han's ability to break the sword so easily, means;
1) The Di sword was weak iron. How did Di family yield the military might for decades? Were the enemies using weaker swords, and easily vanquished, and the legendary Di was actually a myth?
2) Emperor Han had expert sword skills, and was stronger than General Di. He was really weaker since he felt threatened by Di or Mother (Dowager) made her son paranoid.

Hints: Four handsome men, four villains, four or more tombs, forty episodes, forever in the tombs!
