Episode 8: Tan Yin, if there is an afterlife may you stay away from me.

Episode 8: Tan Yin, if there is an afterlife may you stay away from me.Tan Yin promises Hannu that he will not interfere in Yuan Zhong's fate. And Hannu says that if she complies with this, it won't stop TY from going to YZ. Zi Fei asks Yuan Zhong to say goodbye to TY properly. Zi Fei talks at the funeral about all of YZ's mistakes against TY (in a funny way) and also says that it's their fault. Yuan Zhong interferes and tells Tan Yin that he owes her. And that if there is life after death, let her stay away from him. When Tan Yin's body is burning in the earth. She feels it there in the sky. Hannu sends a rain and puts out the fire that YZ and ZF had lit. Quian Lin continues to search for his mother. He opens the window of a house and spies the Witch Gu embodying some god, and the leader of the ghost clan kneels down and receives a bewitched dagger, ordered to kill Yuan Zhong. It is a divine weapon that kills gods. (The tribe of the ghosts of war once belonged to the divine class and because of a crime were destined to stay on earth.) Yuan Zhong and Zifei (his spirit sword) set out in search of the other four spirits. DingXu is warned about this and sends someone to investigate. YZ is taking a bath in the bathtub. TY sneaks in, he hears her voice, and unwittingly uses the power of the divine hand against her who drops dead again. YZ and Zifei are left wondering how she was alive again. And Zifei says how will he avenge her now that the culprit is now YZ? At the new funeral, Yuan Zhong conjectures that TY actually belongs to the clan of the ghosts of war. This time YZ throws Tan Yin's body into the sea, and freezes it. But Tan Yin manages to wake up and I left there again. Tan Yin goes to YZ who squeezes her arm unintentionally. She asks YZ if he intends to kill her again. YZ and Zifei ask how she is alive. And TY gives the lame excuse that Mr Lung gave her in heaven. A pretty crazy story to fool YZ and ZF. Tang Hua understands well what Yuan Zhong was doing when looking for the 4 spirits that help him. YZ leaves with Zifei running away from TY, but she grabs a mechanical bird and goes after him. YZ takes his bird and runs away from it once more, but before that he breaks Ty's bird which falls. She screams that she doesn't know how to fly. But he doesn't care. When she falls, she fell into the divine realm again. YZ arrives on a magical ship made by the mortal human race. There the young Qianlin was also taken unconscious. He fights with a group of people and manages to escape. Tan Yin manages to get to the flying nova, where YZ is. She sees a young woman in a dress (which she will probably wear to disguise herself).

Episode 7: Yuan Zhong, you will have peace and happiness.

In the fight between Tan Yin and Hannu, it was Tan Yin who won. She threw the magic dragon at Hannu and went after Yuan Zhong, to save him in as much time as possible. At the council of elders, Yuan Zhong overhears their suspicions about whether it was all a hoax and that the ghosts of war are not returning. Two old women, the mothers of the soldiers killed by the supposed possession of the ghosts of war, arrive at the enclosure and tell the last moments of their children in life. The elders brought these mothers to show that the dates did not match, the dates of birth so that the spell of the ghosts of war would take effect. The elders were accusing Yuan Zhong of colluding with Tang Hua and making a sham to get the restraint necklace around his neck removed. One of the elders threw a magical beetle at Tang Hua and discovered the hoax on Tang Hua's body. Tang Hua said that he was the only one to blame. And that they were all guilty of Yuan Zhong's suffering. Elder DingXu sentences Tang Hua, but Yuan Zhong stands up and asks him to take Tang Hua's place, so since it all started because of him, it was only fair that he took over. And it would help him in his destiny to be a god. Tang Hua and one of the elders get into a physical fight. DingXu uses his magical power and stops the fight. DingXu says that he doesn't trust Yuan Zhong, and says if you set everything up because you don't want to be a god, say it right away. (Both are very sarcastic in these lines). DingXu sentences Yuan Zhong to prison. Yuan Zhong remains calm. But at that moment DingXu manifests the possession of the ghosts of war in himself. A fight begins between all the elders. (Due to the witch Gu of the ghosts of war, who uses the warrior Quianling as a vessel for a spell against DingXu that she accuses of killing her son.) DingXu possessed responds affirmatively to YZ. Yes, he is a ghost of war. "We are the divine race. You bunch of ants." He throws a square magical object that will explode at Yuan Zhong. Tang Hua and others are worried. Yuan Zhong remains impassive, it even seems that he is not afraid of dying. But before the object touches him, Tan Yin arrives and throws himself in front of him, fearing the impact. She falls, and before she faints, she says, luckily, I arrived on time. While Yuan Zhong continues to desperately call her name. The witch Gu was stopped by the leader of the ghosts of war. The witch says she received guidance from a god who spoke to her, through a sacred object. She shows the object. The soldier says that old Gu is a lunatic, but the leader of the ghosts of war says that she once saw her father talk to this god when she was a child. Yuan Zhong had the authority to confine DingXu in punishment. The entire council of elders on their knees begs at YZ's door hoping that he will change his mind. YZ wonders with her assistant, many doubts about Tan Yin, that at that moment he looks at her dead in bed. He doesn't understand, if all this was something planned by someone, leading to this result. He doesn't understand. Finally, he asks the helper to bury and hold Tan Yin's funeral. His assistant tells Yuan Zhong that he needs to pull himself together, and remember that Tan Yin said that YZ would have a long and happy life. But YZ looks at TY's body with teary eyes. YZ sits on his throne, and DingXu and the council of elders arrive and greet him. DingXu says that the ghosts of war have indeed returned and asks the priest to put aside the grievances of the past and help them overcome the ghosts of war. Yz calmly asks DX if he will unlock the restraint collar around his neck (YZ). DingXu says yes, he will do it. All the elders point their magical power at Yuan Zhong's necklace and unlock it. The power released from Yuan Zhong's hands then lets out a discharge and everyone falls spitting blood. The imposing and powerful Yuan Zhong who rises from his chair does not seem friendly. Tan Yin in the sky talks to Hannu and her elder friend. They explain that Hannu prevented TY's primordial spirit from being lost. TY says he has to come back down to earth now. They advise her to wait, as it takes time to fully recover. Yuan Zhong is in Tan Yin's room, her body remains on the bed. And he looks sadly at the door with his back turned, without looking at it. Tan Yin's beetle enters the room. Yuan Zhong holds it in her hand and listens again. You will have peace and happiness. So, he tries once again to bring TY back to life. He can't. In the next scene, Tang Hua is in the tower. Yuan Zhong arrives. Tang Hua questions YZ, but he seems insensitive and says that he shouldn't stop him as TH had a plan. TH is upset by his friend's coldness. They try to talk, but YZ is in a bad mood and says it's because his maid died and it's not the best time. Quian Lin yells at his friend, reaffirming that he wants to find his mother. Zidhai is informed of Tan Yin's death. Zidhai dresses in a different outfit, and holds his sword. She goes out and we see her walking in a field of flowers. YZ's aide asks Yuan Zhong to attend Tan Yin's funeral so as not to be so pitiful with no one present. And he asks them to bring gifts to give dignity to her funeral. YZ accepts. The episode ends with them at the funeral site. Her body covered with a white cloth and all the preparations there. The helper makes the necessary greeting. (end of episode).

Episode 6: All beings deserve to live. The gods are not more important than other beings.

Tan Yin stops time, and by kissing Yuan Zhong, lends her part of her divine power. Something unexpected happens: Yuan Zhong opens her eyes, before she returns to the rhythm of time (why did this happen?). Then, he asks what TY is doing. And he tells her that she is very strange, he does not understand what she is doing. She makes a lot of excuses, including saying that she is a maid, and is not used to it. She tells YZ that she has many abilities. But Yz tells her that these skills are not important. In another scene, TY fulfills what he says and goes to her perspective to help YZ. YZ had transmitted a punishment to her, but that was just a joke, (burning wood). TY took it as true, and YZ woke up to the noise of broken wood, his pale was full of wood. YZ went after TY who built furniture in his room. They fight (in that funny way). She tells Yuan Zhong that he is forbidden to feel anything for her. That she, TY, is only there to accompany him. And not to have a love affair. That he can be with any other woman. That Ty won't get in the way. She kicks him out and YZ thinks it's just another trick of hers.After that, TY tries to win back Yuan Zhong, who was very upset and makes a small mechanical horse out of a cherry tree compartment. He takes the toy, but does not open it. They continue talking. He grabs her chin. He says she's weird. That she even looks like she is not of this world. (Yuan Zhong says another famous line from the trailers: Everyone who approaches me has a hidden purpose. It is not easy to confine.). TY says that she knows Yuan Zhong's heart (it's cold as ice, but still retains warmth). She knows he's a good person. She trusts him. (This catches YZ off guard. He is touched and stops. She says she leaves her blessing for him, for him to always be happy. She puts a cherry in her hand. She smiles and leaves.). He is touched by what she says.In another scene, Yuan Zhong is in his room carving the statue of the elder DingXi on a piece of wood. Yuan Zhong's aide asks who it is. Yuan Zhong replies that it is DingXi and then he smashes the statue's head.In another scene, DingXi proposes to YZ that he remove the golden collar and that YZ face the ghosts of war once again to defend the tribe from foxes. (YZ questions that if he stops spiritual refinement and this leash restraint, he will lose the chance to be a god.) The female elder stands up, and tells DingXi that Yuan Zhong was wronged, YZ did good to the fox tribe, but was treated humiliatingly. The elder makes an excuse. Then another voice rises up and says (DingXi, all the other elders also have rings of restraint, you must free everyone. Only you the bell that opens the latches.).The female elder, takes care of the elder DingXi, with a medicinal technique by needles on his back. He moans, and then she says, "It hurts DingXi, but you don't worry about Yuan Zhong's pain every time in all these years that he has to undergo that spiritual refinement."The rest of the episode is the young warrior, Qian Ling, being mistreated by his own people (the ghosts of war). He has no family, as there are serious rules in the tribe against those who do not fulfill the task of having children so that the tribe does not cease to exist. There are other families elsewhere (the ghosts of war survive incognito, without anyone knowing of their existence). Qiang Lin walks around the place and arrives at an old wooden house. He comes in, accidentally hits a mummy of a dead person. Toxic smoke comes out and Quian Lin falls to the ground unconscious. The witch Gu appears and says that this was timely. That that young warrior will be useful to her. In the sky, Hannu tries in every way to prevent Ty from coming down to earth to help Yuan Zhong. Hannu says that the god TaiHe is more important than YZ. But TY says that all beings are important and deserve to live. For TH 100 years is just a nap, why can't YZ live his full life? Hannu uses a magical power on TY's back. But TY says that won't work. She knows that probably YZ is in need of her help, and she, TY will come back and help Yz at that time. (Ends the episode).My grade: 10.0

Episode 5: My mission is to be with you for your entire life.

Tang Yin goes to Yuan Zhong's room and again approaches his chest and observes the hoop of the gold collar that restrains him. He wakes up and asks her what she's doing. She makes an excuse that she's just fixing his sheet so he can sleep better. He doesn't believe it and asks her to leave. She sees that she has not convinced him and runs away. In the morning, while Yuan Zhong does that study, he yawns. The helper asks what happened. Yuan Zhong says that Tan Yin broke into his room and he was on duty all night thinking she was going to come back. The helper laughs and asks if she has returned. YZ says no. The helper asks if he was disappointed. But YZ says nothing. Yuan Zhong says that the mortal race has great value if it had some of the advantages of the fox tribe, they would be more important. TY continues insistently studying the golden rim. She sends the spy beetle to spy on YZ again. Yuan Zhong is bathing in the stone bathtub. The spy beetle approaches him and TY manages to visualize him with his eyes closed in the stone bathtub. Yuan Zhong with his chest bare, suddenly opens his eyes and stands up angrily pushing the intrusion beetle with his hand. He speaks angrily: Ji Tan Yin. He goes to his room half-dressed, she covers her eyes and says she didn't see anything, but as soon as she sees the beetle she sees that she can't fool him. After he dresses better, he asks her to comb his hair. It allows her to take a closer look at the necklace around his neck. Suddenly she approaches as if she is smelling Yuan Zhong and she says that she noticed that there is poison in the necklace. He says that there is also magic. YuanZhong says that the collar technology is the combination of the knowledge of the best human craftsmen with the knowledge of the immortals. So, it's not so easy to unlock it. He asks if TY wants to resign now, but TY says that she will surely find a solution. She ties his hair. It looks beautiful. But he says she didn't do a good job. She replies that the problem is his ugly face. He doesn't seem to accept this. And she says: You really have a simple face. (at the moment he was even more handsome, she says so). He asks for the cherries she brought. He starts eating them. He takes the jar of cherries and the two sit on the stairs outside the room enjoying the scenery. In front of the blue tree. They talk about some birds that follow Tan Yin because of the cherries. YZ says that the birds are really angry with her because of the cherries. YZ is very gallant and handsome. She smiles at TY and asks who is her. She tells him not to ask this question again. But she says that she came looking for someone, a friend from the past. And she explains that this friend took her out of great agony. She says that her friend told her that they would meet again. YZ playfully says that he probably knew that his simple appearance would not please TY and so he gave up. She says she doesn't understand why this frustrated friend didn't ask her for help. YZ says what kind of help a human could do. TY says YZ wouldn't understand. Suddenly, two white flowers fall into the pond next to each other and TY is so happy watching. YZ leaves and TY remembers the young white fox breaking the ice that had bound her in the past. And the little white fox took half of her crystal and she took the other half. Suddenly a voice came in her ears. It was the teenage Yuan Zhong saying a prayer to her. She then appeared to him as a goddess and said that she could not fulfill the requests he asked. That was to bring back Yuan Zhong's relatives. And that YZ could win the war against the enemies of his people. She says that at some point she would fulfill one of the requests. Yuan Zhong takes the medicinal soup that his sidekick brings him and asks for TY. In the divine realm, TY talks to his old friend who presents him with several alternatives on how to break the lock on Yuan Zhong's collar. Finally, he suggests to Tan Yin to provide temporary divine power to Yuan Zhong, so that he can break the leash himself. TY spits blood in an attempt to force a discovery through magic on the solution of YZ's gold collar. After that, TY goes to Yuan Zhong who is going again for refinement. TY fights with him and says that she is there to stop it, take care of and protect Yuan Zhong. But he stubbornly goes ahead and the sidekick and TY follow him. YZ feels bad, TY worries and realizes that his neck is injured. She sweats the ointment on his neck. The same and he thinks it will not cure him. TY tells Yuan Zhong that the only mission she has in this world is to stay by YZ's side until he gets old, gets gray hair, loses his teeth. And YZ dying of old age. She speaks smiling, but YZ looks tender at her when she says she will make him happy and she always delivers what she promises. And it's her blessing to him. YuanZhong wanted to walk near the tree of his childhood. The elders come in pursuit of him. Suddenly Tang Hua becomes overwhelmed by evil hypnosis and fights with everyone, injuring some. But they manage to hold on to it. After Tang Hua is immobilized, they take him to an enclosure and Zhidai arrives and manages to put a rope on TH that causes him to return to normal. In the room the council of elders TH witnesses the elders deciding to seek YZ to overcome the ghosts of war, and at that time TH smiles. In the celestial realm, at his friend's suggestion, TY says that if YZ becomes a god, the leash restrictions will fall apart. But the friend explains that it is enough for her to provide a little divine power to Yz that YZ will be able to free himself from the leash. TY decides to do this without YZ finding out her identity. YZ is enjoying the falling snow, he looks sad at that moment. She looks at him from afar when TY stops the time wire and ends the episode.PS:There's a scene I forgot to mention in this episode. The first time Tan Yin met Yuan Zhong and gave up on killing him, TY found the half of the crystal that belonged to her. So from the beginning she knew who Yuan Zhong was. And in this episode before she stopped time, she wonders if he remembers the moment he met her in the past.My rating: 10,0

The long ordeal of the fox priest

Epiode 3: The long ordeal of the fox priest.Yuan Zhong, deceived and manipulated by the elders who, taking advantage of their naivety and trust in them, convinced him to put the restrictive collar around his neck with their own hands (to “supposedly” overcome the 5 deadly sins, pass the ordeal of the world and achieve immortality). When he put on the restrictive gold collar, his power began to be sucked away. “Farewell, high priest.” Everyone, dressed in their blue robes, kneels before the high priest who enters the cave, the dungeon where he will be imprisoned. He is so handsome in the white robe and the gold necklace, he looks somberly at everyone and enters the cave of his ordeal. The heavy gates close. He looks up at a crack in the ceiling of the cave and the ray of light covers him. Tan Yin hears the hypnotized man (for 40 years he was sealed). She asks why they treat this high priest and hero of theirs, and the man explains: because of fear, because they killed his family and friends and told him it was the ghosts of war. (but it was them, the priests themselves, because they questioned them for locking Yuan Zhong in the cave. So, they continued to confine Yuan Zhong. Tan Yin was even more outraged. Now it was the sword-in-the-stone moment from the King Arthur books. (Yuan Zhong was the only one who managed to use the divine hand that was kept in the rock. Everyone who tried fell dead. Because of this, the relatives wanted to see their children, and so they were massacred by the fox clan. (because they wanted all the other young people back, and also their son Yuan Zhong.) Tan Yin squirts blood because she cannot maintain the power of hypnotism for long (in the mortal world). The man wakes up and she suddenly disappears, without him seeing her. (in the past, back in the cave, Yuan Zhong faces his five selves (conflicting with him, accusing him and instigating him), it is himself against himself. His five selves (five deadly sins), which he needs to overcome. And then, Yuan Zhong, waking up, was a nightmare in which he remembered what happened in that cave, for 40 years. In front of the blue tree that shines Tan Yin waits worriedly, outside the door of Yuan Zhong's palace. He opens the door and comes out with his long hair loose and his impeccable white robe. He asks why she is there and she is in his thoughts (he says: all living beings suffer and we must have compassion), and then he hugs him. But he does not understand why she is so tender. Here, when she hugs him it is not yet love, it is just the deep feeling of compassion she feels for him. She wants to comfort him. She hugs him. Remember that she is a 1000 year old goddess who has a deep feeling in her heart. And he is a person with a still naive heart, despite being a priest. Tan Yin transports herself to the celestial dimension and talks to her friend. The friend asks her if she feels something more for Yuan Zhong, she says it is just compassion (but her expression is suspicious that there is something more that is being born.). Her friend warns her that Yuan Zhong is not more important than the divine realm and not more important than the god Taihe, who needs her on this quest to find the divine left hand. Yuan Zhong asks Tan Yin to come with him to the mountain, but on the way he feels ill and sits down on a rock to rest. Tan Yin seriously insists to Yuan Zhong that he needs to get rid of this restrictive collar, he is like a god and illness should not touch him, and this collar is causing all this. She mentions that people think he is a monster imagining that he would do cruel things, but he just laughs and says that he should not care what people say. And that seeking enlightenment has always been his lesson to them. (But Yuan Zhong was very surprised that a woman would care so much about them, since they had always only looked at the young general Tang Hua. “You admire me,” Yuan Zhong said to Tan Yin. He said, you always knew who I was, since that day at the maid selection, you already knew about me. Yuan Zhong entered the palace to tire himself reading books, as part of his penance (he says it is to overcome ignorance, which is also a capital sin).General Tang Hua in the next scene seems suspicious and talks to his aide. Tang Hua laughs mockingly that the council of elders might have the strength to overcome the ghosts of war. Tan Yin witnesses Yuan Zhong leaving the palace, in his white robe, the aide carrying a wheelchair. She is worried, but they do not explain why he has a wheelchair. Tan Yin unmasks her colleague Lui Yiao, who wanted to kill Yuan Zhong. Tan Yin pours corrosive poison on the floor in front of her. Lui Yiao says that the fox clan deserves this, as they are all cruel. They have power and deserve this evil. Tan Yin questions, is someone evil just because they have power? Zidhai finds LuiYiao, questions her, and soon realizes that something is wrong. Yuan Zhong arrives weak, sitting in a wheelchair. He is unconscious. Yuan Zhong has been placed in a hot tub to recover. Tan Yin arrives, touches his cold forehead and is frightened. He begins to lean over and she supports him. The assistant and the elderly woman arrive, who are very worried, take care of Yuan Zhong and use her medicinal power to treat Yuan Zhong. Tan Yin asks the assistant what this spiritual refinement is that Yuan Zhong is always taken to undergo at the hands of the elders. But the assistant does not explain, he says it is a secret technique of the fox clan. The elderly woman asks with a worried face, looks at him lying on the bed, if Yuan Zhong really thinks it is useful to go through all this. He reaffirms that he does, and reminds him about the 5 deadly sins, which he needs to overcome. And that spiritual cultivation is necessary. Tan Yin enters the room and asks Yuan Zhong if he wants to eat. He gives her a recipe for a meal, but she does not know how to make it. He says another, she doesn't know how to make it. She says she's going to make some porridge. (I think the foods Yuan Zhong mentioned have something to do with his family members). Suddenly, Tan Yin turns around and asks if he's never imagined that maybe everyone is deceiving him about this cultivation of immortality. He looks at her in surprise and says that doubt is a form of obsession, which is also a sin. Zidhai went to talk to Tan Yin and asks for help about the bracelet she has on her wrist, which restricts her. Zidhai says that it's not the first time the mortal clan has sent assassins to the foot of the mountain. Zidhai tells Tan Yin that Tan Yin's name is not registered in the artisans' document. Which is suspicious. But Tan Yin is always one step ahead and gives him a fitting answer. Tan Yin again follows Yuan Zhong, in his white clothes, with the helper carrying the wheelchair, to the cave of spiritual refining. She asks him not to go, as he is too weak. Back in the cave, we find out what really happens. Yuan Zhong sits on a chair, where he is twice drained (his spiritual strength is removed from his neck and collected in a vessel. On the other side, another bucket collects his blood. Zidhai, hidden behind the rocks, finds that the nutritious seed she is holding in her hands, a seed that shines, is actually... Yuan Zhong looks at the heavy wooden door, the place where he entered and was confined for 40 years, the trauma shines in his eyes. Someone tells Elder DingXi to stop the draining, or he can't take it anymore. Elder answers.

The end is near, despair haunts.

The enemy says, I have come to destroy you, Yuan Zhong. I will return. This is just the beginning. Indeed, Yuan Zhong has many enemies. Tan Yin uses her spy artifact, puts Yuan Zhong under hypnosis and explains to him who she is and what she has to do with him. But when She notices the power-restricting collar around Yuan Zhong's neck, she gives up at that moment.The elders of the fox tribe are very frivolous. They are gathered in their silly conversations, plotting their next steps. Tan Yin ascends in spirit form to Hannu in the spiritual dimension and questions her about whether Yuan Zhong really is what they say (cruel and inhuman), since she has begun to doubt it. Hannu says that a weak person cannot necessarily be bad. Tan Yin acquiesces but says that she will investigate.Yuan Zhong is walking on the mountain, he meets Tan Yin and saves her from a green snake. He suddenly feels dizzy. Tan Yin helps him sit on the rock. He explains that he was poisoned, but that he is an immortal, and it cannot kill him.Tang Hua, the young general of the fox tribe, talks to the council of elders about the strange phenomenon that is happening (people being poisoned and turning into cruel zombies). The council of elders explains that this technique only exists in the clan of war ghosts (but they no longer exist in this world). The elders say that no one could scare Yuan Zhong and no one in the world knows war ghosts better than Yuan Zhong. They ask Yuan Zhong to come forward.Tan Yin gives Yuan Zhong a lame excuse about a dog on the mountain, which made her come to that place (Yuan Zhong finds this strange since she is a maid).Tan Yin opens her magic bag (full of trinkets) and finds an ointment to treat Yuan Zhong's poisoning.Yuan Zhong asks his assistant to investigate Tan Yin. (Is she a spy for the human race or for the ghosts of war?). Instructor Zidha, with her cold expression, explains to the maids about a selection to serve the priest Yuan Zhong (it requires great artistic skills). Zhidhai sees the young general Tang Hua pass by and she remembers the past when she saved him from death, but he seemed not to notice her.Yuan Zhong arrives at the council of elders' room, and in his soft and arrogant speech, he tells the elders that the beautiful maid has come to look for him (the beauty). And that the elder is getting old, he does not know about these problems of Yuan Zhong. Tan Yin uses magical powers and helps her in another dimension to pass the artistic tests in the selection of Yuan Zhong's maid. Yuan Zhong observes Tan Yin's performance in all the tests. In the end, Tan Yin shows her best skill, that of a craftswoman. She manages to break the lock of the restraining bracelet on her arm. And then, she says that she is able to free Yuan Zhong from the golden collar around his neck. Yuan Zhong accepts (everyone says it's impossible). Tan Yin tries, but fails and even causes a wound around Yuan Zhong's neck. But she is still chosen by him to be his personal maid. And he doesn't let them punish Tan Yin.And Yuan Zhong says that this collar for him is a ladder to greatness and success. One of the soldiers of the fox clan tries in front of everyone to assassinate Yuan Zhong. Tan Yin throws herself in front of him, but Yuan Zhong's aide arrives first and plunges his sword into the back of Yuan Zhong's enemy. Tan Hua is saddened because he was a friend. But Yuan Zhong's aide says that he could not allow them to hurt the priest Yuan Zhong. Tan Yin, already at home, asks Yuan Zhong if he is sad about the possession he witnessed on General Chizi today. Yuan Zhong asks if she knows the possession technique? She says she knows that it is something from the ghosts of war. Instructor Zidhai talks to an acquaintance about the need to find a way to unlock the restraining bracelet on her own arm. This acquaintance tells her that there is someone who can help her. “The end is approaching, despair haunts,” mentions Elder Ding Yuxi (this was the phrase repeated by the mind-possessed man who tried to kill Yuan Zhong that day). The elders argue among themselves, saying that it is impossible for the ghosts of war to have returned. They know that this is one of the mottos of the ghosts of war. “The end is approaching, despair haunts.” One of the elders is frightened and insists that the ghosts of war may have returned. Although the others say that the ghosts of war were eliminated in the battle of PingXu years ago. One of the elders mentions eliminating the priest. Elder DingXu angrily rebukes him, not accepting the proposal. No one is allowed to disturb Yuan Zhong’s cultivation until they find out the truth. They will investigate. Tan Yin meets another priest who lives on one of the mountains. He is drunk. She uses a spell and asks him about a war in the past, what does he know about it. Why Yuan Zhong, a hero of their people who saved them from a tragedy, is treated in such a humiliating way. Then, Tan Yin sees in his mind, the moment when Yuan Zhong received the collar for the first time, he was convinced by Elder DingXi and other elders that this collar would make Yuan Zhong a god, crossing the path of immortality through earthly sacrifice (but in the elders' thoughts, they said: Yuan Zhong does not really know that the bridge between dimensions was destroyed and it is not possible to ascend to immortality. ). Tan Yin questions about this, irritated, because she knows that this is impossible, the bridge was destroyed. The hypnotized man says: but Yuan Zhong does not know that. The elders in the past, praised Yuan Zhong for his deeds in the war freeing the fox clan and said that he would have a chance to ascend to immortality. He accepts and they put the collar of another power restrictor on him. Elder DingXi in the past tells Yuan Zhong that he has to resolve the 5 deadly sins in his heart to ascend to immortality (1-hypocrisy, 2-obsession, 3-ignorance, 4-jealousy, 5-cruelty). In this way, Yuan Zhong would be free from worldly desires. All evil in the world stems from these sins and Yuan Zhong is no exception. He has to go through the trials of the mortal world, sealed with the collar that suppresses the power of the divine hand to ascend to immortality. Tan Yin questions the hypnotized man, that this is a cruelty that they are doing to Yuan Zhong, deceiving him. She angrily and indignantly asks why they are treating their great and heroic high priest Yuan Zhong like this.

A story about love, fantasy, adventure, heaven and earth. Human, immortals and gods

Opening scene - episode 1 (commentary):In this opening scene, there are images that seem like a dream. This happens in the book. Ji Tan Yin has several near-death experiences, and we here, we see, she survives and recovers without explanation, as in the book. However, we see her searching for the bearer of the divine hand that she created herself. The introduction of Yuan Zhong is very interesting, already showing that he cannot control the power of the divine hand. And the fact that Ji Tan Yi intervened, acted, receiving the destructive impact of the divine hand, so that many people would not die (shows her character, which is compassionate). And Hannu, the voice she hears, already incriminates Yuan Zhong, as someone not worthy of using the divine hand.Episode 1 (scene 2):When Tan Yin enters the mountain, at the moment when the mortals are going to pay homage to the immortals. All this symbolism in this scene is interesting, because it explains the relationship between the immortals of the fox clan and the mortals. And everyone knelt, but since Tan Yin is a goddess (she didn't knelt) and the wind blew. She said that she communicates with the mountain. The issue of the lamp going out if it touches the ground and so she wouldn't be able to climb the mountain is interesting (these are details that improve the book and the anime).(Right at the beginning of the episode it was mentioned that the bridge between heaven and earth had been closed and that's why Tan Yin was injured in the passage between the two dimensions, this is something mentioned a lot in the book. (But here it was better explained and shown).Scene 3: The fortune-telling alchemist who got lost in the mountain of immortals. The conversation with Yuan Zhong was interesting (I think part of what he guessed was wrong, and part of what he guessed was right). About health, no. About the benefactor who will arrive, yes. (Yuan Zhong didn't seem to believe it very much.) Scene 4: Tan Yin climbs the mountain and doesn't let herself be fooled by the sinking lamp (which could prevent her from reaching the desired location), showing her skill as a craftswoman goddess. (That part was really cool). And the meeting between Yuan Zhong and Tan Yi was interesting, yes (the chemistry isn't here). At that moment, they are total strangers. Yuan Zhong is always a bit arrogant and Tan Yin is also suspicious. But YZ helping TY climb the mountain was so chic and gentlemanly. He's already a bit of a flirt and Tan Yin pulling her hand away shows that she's not an easy woman to conquer.Ahh, and again the sentence of peace and happiness in the gift of the species egg presented by Tan Yin (Yuan Zhong doesn't seem to believe this). But will this be Yuan Zhong's fate in the drama, despite it seeming otherwise?Scene 5:The entire scene in which the immortal guides the maid candidates, serving as a tour guide who explains about the important residents of each mountain, brings a perfect atmosphere of fantasy and sacredness. The setting is also carefully designed, with the little metal foxes in the environment identifying who the residents of this place of immortals are. (When Tan Yin arrives, I don't know if they expected her not to make it (and planned for someone else to arrive). But I think they were surprised.Yuan Zhong has a guarded life and a golden collar around his neck, despite being someone important. (By throwing the lucky egg in the trash, he shows his pessimism about himself. Scene 6:Yuan Zhong's life is closely monitored by his superiors, but he seems to be one step ahead of the game, expecting this kind of attitude. The moments when Tan Yin uses her goddess powers with that magical spying artifact, or talks to that celestial inhabitant who advises her. And the fact that she doesn't accept everything easily, and questions and understands each mechanical artifact with mastery makes it all very interesting to watch.The whole environment of that place around Yuan Zhong maintains the version of the story to make it seem like Yuan Zhong is a dangerous and heartless enemy. (But still, he maintains his haughty, calm look and a trace of confident arrogance. What makes him like this?Scene 7: The moment when Yuan Zhong is shown in the past, still in his spiritual fox form. He saves Tan Yin from the ice rock. The little animal dug into the ice, so Tan Yin probably woke up and managed to get out of there. And the little white fox managed to rip out and take half of a blue diamond from Tan Yin. (I know that probably, this half diamond will be the way of recognition between them. (But, then were two young people her target in this earthly world? The young man with the power of the left hand. And someone she doesn't know who saved her from the ice rock in his spiritual fox form. The whole moment when Tan Yin gets scared by the story of the tailor's ghost told by her coworkers is very interesting and funny. Her friends are very funny. And the next moment Tan Yin gets scared thinking that Yuan Zhong was a ghost. The part where he tells her that the fox tribe does not bury their dead, but turns them into ashes to integrate with nature, and have another form of life (it must have a meaning related to the scene in the trailer, where he is dressed in red and disappears like ashes). Scene 8 (End of Episode 1): The whole scene of the general being poisoned by the toxin that turns them into angry (but conscious) zombies is a sign of many enemies wanting Yuan Zhong dead. (There will be another moment like this of poisoned people wanting to attack Yuan Zhong.) And as for the things Tan Yin's friend wanted her to get. Such a suspicious look. And Tan Yin didn't accept it.And the musical closing of the episode, music and scenes of the actors, is great. And...Yuan Zhong (his arm......😶‍🌫️).

I hate these "deus ex machina" plot solutions

I finally watched the last episode. But how illogical the ending is. Three couples ended up together, but without logic, without explanation. How did that happen? It's not explained. The main couple (without logic). And two other couples. A second couple (the girl had died, how is she there?). The third couple is even less incoherent, but... He was like in a life sentence. How did he get free, to be with her? No explanation. I hate these "deus ex machina" plot solutions, where the solution happens (without explanation, left in the air, appears out of nowhere). Anyway, that's why it took me so long to decide to watch the last episode.PS:And I have no interest whatsoever in watching the extra they created (in modern times). So far it's enough for me.

About episodes 1 to 4: (pieces on a board that fit together perfectly).This is a worthy pirate story.These 4 episodes are intense. We have a true red flag here. He is sincere, sensitive and ruthless at the same time. The anti-hero seeks revenge at any cost. The heroine also seeks revenge on someone, but she dreams of freedom, independence and success. The girl with the pearl, Duan Wu, is truly different, determined, and wins over everyone around her with her courage and strength of spirit. The story of the two complements each other harmoniously. The plot is coherent, like the pieces on the board always fitting together and organizing the elements coherently. But who is Yan Zi Jing's sister? I think it is the woman who fought with Duan Wu, the pirate woman. I loved the poetry recitation scene. Does Yan Zi Jing have an illness? What illness is that? The hero/anti-hero needs to have some vulnerability, right? In addition to the emotional one that he carries with him.

Episode 5: If she dies, then that is her destiny.

Jing He and his subordinate discuss the scheme that was used to save Mei Lin and obtain the fake emblem of the Wei Bei army. Qing Yan worries about Jing He's internal wound, but he reassures him by telling him the name of the flower (you can't kill me). He tells him about the disturbance between Minister Zhang and Murong Xuan Li. The female general Luo Mei sends gifts to Jing He. There are many boxes of tonics. Even after many years, she still thinks of Jing He, the subordinate comments. Jing He asks that if General Yin comes, she inform him immediately. Luo Mei traveled all night after learning about the assassination attempt on Jing He. She didn't even drink a sip of water on the road, says the female general's subordinate. Luo Mei says that she didn't go to visit Jing He's mansion in person because she already sent the tonics (she says it in her own way, with a closed and serious expression). And that if he wants to reciprocate the gesture, he should come visit her in person. The subordinate tells her that Luo Mei always sends him gifts and Jing He never reciprocates. Why does she bother? Luo Mei receives the portrait of the beauty from Xian who tried to assassinate Jing He, but she retorts: I asked you to investigate her identity, why give me this portrait? (Could it be jealousy?). The subordinate adds that she found nothing wrong with her and that the king's decree must be right. She could not bear the insult, her pride as a woman in front of Jing He and that is why she tried to assassinate him. Luo Mei laughs (she is very brave). The subordinate says: Jing He has become so reckless, why does Miss Luo Mei still think of him? Luo Mei says that they are already partners and she would hate to see him succumb. But she thinks that he has changed and that his request for clemency for the beauty was to maintain the alliance between the two nations. Suddenly, several gift boxes arrive for Luo Mei from the crown prince to congratulate her on her arrival, but she briefly assumes that they were from Jing He to Luo Mei. Luo Mei quickly orders them to take some of the boxes she brought to repay the crown prince.Luo Mei is in her general's mansion and remembers the past when she won a fight with Jing He to get a dagger (Jing didn't believe she could beat him and didn't want her to be a soldier because she couldn't protect her there). She replied that she didn't need his protection, and she was determined and made him promise that if she beat him the dagger would be hers. And so it happened. The emperor made this promise if it happened, she could go on the expedition to Xian.Jing He at that time said: General Yin, you are excellent in martial arts. I admit defeat. However, I gave you a treasure, and later I will think about what you can give me in return.(In the present tense.) Luo Mei is practicing her martial arts and Jing He arrives to visit her. She almost hits him with the sword, but stops in time. They look at each other with a sparkle in their eyes. (She sees him standing, walking, then says: "I knew you would rise again"). Jing He says: General Yin, we haven't seen each other for many years, let's get drunk together today. But it's a pity that there's only wine, so there's nothing to entertain yourselves with, Jing He says. He says to call some dancers to liven things up. Luo Mei says, a little irritated, that there are no dancers in the general's mansion. JH says that's a pity. Luo Mei looks at him puzzled. JH says he heard that she brought a treasure from Nanyang. The red coix seed. He heard that it dispels all worries. He asks: Which is better? Wine or red coix seed? Luo Mei asks if that's why he came to the general's mansion. He asks if she's willing to give it up. She says that prolonged use can cause loss of consciousness. JH says he knew but he could tell that she was sensible. Luo Mei says that she only uses it to ease the pain but that JH wants to use it to escape reality. And that she thought JH had changed. He says that he had indeed changed. And that having a beautiful companion while serving wine is more relaxing and enjoyable than those days serving with weapons. She gets angry again and with disappointed eyes says: General, have you forgotten your great ambitions? To protect the nation? He laughs disconsolately and says that General Weibei no longer exists. Now he is the carefree Prince Jing. At that moment Luo Mei stands up silently and furious. And he turns towards the balcony drinking the wine. She says that they have lost the Wei Bei army, but there is still another army, that of Pingnan. That it is enough for him to recover his ambitions. He claims that he is a guilty man and that she is asking a criminal to lead the troops. And that he is ashamed to face the people of Qingzhou. She looks at him with determination and some fury, that Qingzhou was burned, but as long as the city still exists, it will be able to feed many people of Great Yan. That this was thanks to his efforts. In a war there are always victims, and let the defeat of the Weibei army in Qingzhou be the reparation for what happened in Qingzhou. And it is not worth sacrificing General Wei Bei again. He shakes his head no and says that her words are enlightening, but unfortunately he has had problems for several years and it is difficult to resolve them at the moment. And he came for the red coix seeds. And he hopes she can give them to him. With somewhat sad eyes she says yes, but it is the same rule, if her wins, the seed goes to him. He laughs and says: General Yin is excellent in martial arts and has already defeated all the warriors of the great Yan. I admit defeat. She then says determinedly: Then I will not give you the coix seed. Then, JH says decisively: General Yin, the time has come for you to repay me... for this dagger. She looks at Him.... Jing He leaves happy because he has the coix seed. He tells him the name of the flower (it cannot die). Then, his subordinate arrives and tells him that Minister Zhang has gone to the Wenhua Pavilion and Mei Lin too. JH mounts his horse and runs there. Mei Lin flies into the pavilion and finds Minister Zhang, and fights him. Minutes before, Zhang tells his Momai warriors to hide. But they don't know about a trap set. Archers with fire arrows hit the Momai warriors, who, as Mei Lin realizes (she had clothes soaked in phosphorus), make the fire spread faster. She fights some of them before the fire. She runs and grabs the coix seed, quickly swallows the contents of 5 seeds, the cabinet falls on top of her, and even staggering, she manages to get out from under the wooden cabinet. When she reaches the balcony, a wooden beam with fire falls on top of her, which falls right below (into the arms of Jing He), who had stopped at the door (due to his own trauma regarding the fire).At that moment, Princess Zi Gu prepares herself with a dagger given to her by her brother. She hides under the bed sheet with the dagger under her pillow, as a way to face the emperor who is coming to visit her. She does this even though the female servant warns her that it is a capital crime to hide a dagger when near the emperor. Zi Gu says it's okay, she won't let the emperor know.The emperor arrives at Zi Gu's room and finds her sitting on the bed, hidden under a blanket. She takes off the blanket, and the emperor sees a dagger under the pillow. She tries to say that she would not harm him. But he interrupts her and says that he already knows that. He shows her a flowery handkerchief and asks her if she knows what it is for. She says that she knows that it is to test the concubine's chastity on their wedding night. The emperor takes the handkerchief, and with the dagger he makes a small cut on her hand and drips the blood onto the cloth. He says that he is not interested in the concubine, but only in peace between Xiyan and Yian. And that he does not want to force her to do anything, but only for her to live in peace in the harem. And that he will return the dagger to her only when she understands this.The eunuch next to the king receives the news that the Wenhua Pavilion is on fire, and he becomes worried.Mei Lin and Jing He are in the carriage heading to the mansion. At this point, Mei Lin is hallucinating and thinks that Jing He is a tree full of various leaves that fight toxins. She sees Him as a tasty stem and tasty leaves, and she starts naming the leaves. She starts biting and smelling Jing He, thinking that he is this tree. At first, he is scared, but then he joins in the game to help her. But... the moment she calls him the master of shadows, he becomes worried. When they arrive at the mansion, He holds that weapon that looks like a small bow (a crossbow), and faces Mei Lin, who calls him master and kneels as if she saw the master. He shoots the crossbow, but she dances the martial art and manages to dodge. The two of them stop facing each other, He pointing a dagger at her. Until he realizes that she is talking to the statue right behind him. Then, she starts hallucinating seeing her father and mother. They talk about their dreams. A cake shop for her mother, her father continues to work with jade stone. Mei Lin puts the jade clip that her father gave her for her wedding, and puts it in her mother's hair. The mother complains and says it is for her wedding, but she says she will not get married, and they fight and play. The mother and father say that they will not let her husband mistreat Mei Lin. Mei Lin says that no man can stand her, because with her skills, she is the one who can mistreat her husband. Jing He looks at the scene and is a little confused. (JH is very handsome in that black outfit). She looks at Jing He and cries, says that she has no way to go back home, her family is dead. Her mother always says that home is where she finds spring flowers. She looks at Jing He's lock of hair that falls in front of his face and she thinks it is a spring flower. He gets scared and gives her a brush, saying it is a spring flower. He gives her one brush after another, until he takes her to bed with all the brushes in her hand, thinking they are flowers. And then she falls asleep. Jing He talks to the healer, who tells JH that the coix seeds will not be able to cure Mei Lin, only neutralize the disease for one year. And that the antidote is very difficult to produce with many rare plants. JH tells him to try hard to produce the antidote. And the healer tells him that even if he manages to produce the antidote, it may not be in time to save her life. Then Jing He says, that if that happens, then it is Mei Lin's fate.The crown prince is copying Buddhist scriptures in the temple, his subordinate arrives and privately tells him that the Wenrua pavilion was burned down and Minister Zhang also died, leaving only the jade ring, which Jing He's soldiers arrived too late to stop , and that now the proof that Jing He had is no longer valuable with Zhang's death. The Crown Prince says it's a shame that this pavilion full of history turned to ashes, and that he and Jing He as children stole a sword from there. And that he hopes to still be the big brother of his third brother, Jing He.YueQin and the emperor play chess, Yueqin apologizes for losing again. The Emperor says that YQ always strives to concede some moves and let the Emperor win. But YQ retorts and says that he lost due to his own inferior abilities. The emperor says that he won't have his great chess partner because he will soon be back in Xian, but there is something that won't let him sleep and that only when YQ is in Xian can this problem be solved. YQ presents the emperor with an incense prepared by himself using a recipe from a famous healer, the emperor asks him to light it immediately, and comments that he enjoyed the smell of fresh plum blossoms. The emperor praises YQ for so many skills, playing the zither, making wine, incense, calligraphy, etc., that there is nothing he can't do. But YQ says they are small skills, but thanks the emperor for the praise and asks what he wants him to do in Xian for the emperor. The emperor says he will have enough to do to keep the peace between Yian and Xiyan. YQ then asks, to further promote peace between the two peoples, that he can tutor the cultural teaching about Yan to the young peacemaking beauties (they came from less civilized places). The king allows it and says that YQ is worried about Zigu, but there is no reason as she is a symbol of peace and everything will be fine with her. And that YQ can go to a certain palace, closer to Zigu to tutor the beauties. And after the wedding ring ceremony, he can return to Xian.Qing Yan tells Jing He that the Wenhua Pavilion has been burned to the ground and the bodies are unrecognizable. Mei Lin wakes up with the brushes in her hands and is happy to look at her arms (she thinks she is cured). Jing He enters the room and asks what she saw in Wenhua Pavilion. She says that he saw the shadow master, and that he said that Jing He discovered that he was involved in the Qingzhou massacre, and so he asked all Momai warriors to stop their actions. Jing He asks if who she saw was a middle-aged man with a scar on his eyebrow. She says yes, and Jing He informs her that he is war minister Zhang Yin. Mei Lin then concludes: Zhang Yi is the real culprit for the fire. And that he didn't die in Wenhua Pavilion. And all the Momai warriors wore clothes coated in phosphorus, which caused the fire to spread quickly through their bodies. And obviously they were silenced. Mei Lin asks: Is the person responsible for the Wenhua Pavilion fire also responsible for the Qingzhou fire? Jing He says he is also investigating this. She asks why Zhang Yin burned down Qingzhou? Jing He says that after the battle of Qingzhou, he relieved him of his position. And that ZY has held a grudge ever since. Mei Lin got angry and reasoned: If he wanted to kill him, he could send many momai warriors, like me. Why did he sacrifice 100,000 innocent Qingzhou people? Jing He also irritated says: he also wants to know the reason. And he says he can try to kill him if he wants. So why were the soldiers of the Weibei army sacrificed?PS:Something I don't understand: Yueqin and ZiGu's kingdom of Xian is nothing like the two make it out to be in court. (We know that this brotherhood and filial love doesn't exist, but at every turn that's what Yue Qin and ZiGu make it out to be all the time. But that's unrealistic.)

Episode 4: These flowers are not immortal, in the first storm they will be crushed.

Yue Qin and his efforts to intercede before the emperor for Mei Lin's life, or to get her out of prison. He decided to present three treasures to the emperor to act on Mei Lin's behalf. He stood for a day and a night, in the rain, sun and cold, waiting for the emperor to come and help him, but the one who came was the eunuch, the palace servant closest to the emperor, three times always with a look of disapproval. And he told YQ that the problem did not concern Xian, the emperor would always play with him again. This did not please YQ, who came up with another idea: to take a basket of degun cake, Mei Lin's favorite, on the first day, and on the second day he went there, he would also take with the sweet a potion made by the healer, which has the effect of making a person appear as if they were dead for three days. Mei Lin received the first cake and was happy to eat, determined to survive like the immortal flower that grows between the cracks in the stone floor of her cell. But on the second day, YQ's plan went wrong, as the crown prince's henchman intercepted the basket and sent an assassin in his place to eliminate ML, but she was smarter, noticed the poison and began to fight with the enemy who pressed her against the cell and almost suffocated her. But Jing He and his subordinate arrived in time and stopped the enemy's action. Jing He and Mei Lin's conversation in prison reveals that the mission of revenge is above all. Mei Lin persuaded with shrewd statements to get the prince to release her from prison, and then in exchange she would give him one of the pieces of evidence that exonerate the Weibei army (the insignia she found on the day of the fire years ago). This phrase from Mei Lin echoed at that moment: I cannot die (that is, before completing the mission of her life). She asked the prince categorically: Get me out of here.Jing He was in his office getting drunk on wine. The maid, a friend of his mother, came to advise him, reminding him that Jing He's mother had always wanted him to be happy. But he replied: "We don't deserve to be happy." He was observing the flowers that appeared in the cracks in the stones of his courtyard, and the maid said to him: If he likes these immortal flowers, he could put them in a vase. He stopped in interest when he heard the name of the flower (as if he didn't know or remember), but replied again: These flowers are not immortal, in the first storm they will be crushed. But the next moment he approached the little flower and smiled gently, touching the flower's petals, while repeating the name: immortal. But when he got up from the ground, he stepped on the flowers (was this already a warning about how the end of the drama would be???). But after the conversation with Mei Lin in prison, at the door of the imperial prison was Yue Qin who immediately realized that his plan to save Mei Lin had gone wrong. In Jing He's office, playing chess, he talked to Yue Qin. Jing He deciphered Yue Qin's intentions, which was to save Mei Lin. JH, in order to test YQ, stated that the best solution between Xian and Yan in this situation would be to execute the prisoner (at this point, Yue Qin got scared and said no). JH warned him not to interfere in these matters, remembering that YQ is a hostage prince, and that this would not help the case. The crown prince talks to his subordinate, Zhang. He orders that 300 Momai warriors be eliminated to prevent him from being exposed. Zhang would like to solve the problem involving the prince of Xian (in the murder of Mei Lin), but the CP did not agree, saying that this would only make the situation worse. Prince Jing appears before his father emperor and convinces him not to execute Mei Lin, arguing that it is better for the people to think that he is a lecher and that is why the beauty of Xian wanted to kill him. (His father says he is not a pervert as they would believe. But Jing He argues that it would not be difficult since they believe he was a general capable of executing civilians and his army. The emperor father reprimands him for many things, but Jing He remains humble before his father. The concubine Zi Gu appears before the majesty and also blames Jing He for what is happening to Mei Lin and joins the chorus that asks him to spare Mei Lin.Then, in the execution square, Mei Lin is prepared in front of everyone to be whipped, as she will be spared death, but the punishment will be flogging. The crown prince wants to take advantage of the moment to kill her and thus take away a useful pawn for his brother. The whip prepared with metal spikes would be used, but Jing He introduces himself and says that he will be the one to whip her, since he is the one who suffered the assassination attempt. He exchanges the deadly whip for one made only of leather. And when whipping her he used a pressure that prevented him from hurting her more severely (still, it would be impossible to hurt her even a little). When he finished whipping her, he approached her and said that "Even if you hate me, I cannot bear to hurt the beauty. You tried to murder me, I whipped you. We must consider our differences resolved." And Mei Lin says to him: Thank you for saving me. And in front of everyone, with her in his arms, JH says: She is mine, I decide whether she should live or die. And looking at his brother: “The Eastern Palace doesn’t need to worry about this.” Then, in front of everyone’s eyes, he goes downstairs with her in his arms. Yue Qin and the subordinate believe that JH saved her due to the conversation he had with the prince earlier. Jing He takes her to her chambers and asks for the army insignia that she promised to give him. She tells him where she hid it. And she soon asks if he knows who the real culprits are.Jing He leaves the chamber and becomes dizzy, but his aide supports him a little. JH calms him down and says: I’m fine. While taking the medicine for the heart meridian due to the effort of containing the force of the whip, he answered the aide’s question regarding the lifespan of Mei Lin (the poison that is about to collapse). But JH remembers the healer telling him about the coix seeds (which neutralizes various toxins). JH then says, “She cannot die” (i.e. the name of the immortal flower), and what she said to him just now: “That the two of them live for the dead and cannot die until the wronged people are laid to rest in peace.” Yue Qin stops in front of Mei Lin’s room door and asks his friend if he looks good, and his friend says yes. Yue Qin remembers 10 years ago when he met Mei Lin in a cave, when they were fleeing the burning of Qingzhou. She kindly wove a string into the shape of a Qingzhou insignia (a symbol that would make the soldiers at the cave door allow them to leave). Just moments ago he told his friend and helper (that he should have died in Qingzhou). But now when Mei Lin holds his hand and tells him to go forward, that the road will get brighter ahead, he feels hopeful and has never forgotten that moment. Back in the present, Yue Qin enters the room and talks to Mei Lin, telling her that he can never repay the favor she did him years ago. He says that when he fled Qingzhou, the kingdom of Xian abandoned him and if it weren't for her, he wouldn't be here today. But Mei Lin retorts by saying that he saved himself. She explains that he was repaying the favor he did her by freeing all the servants of Qingzhou and she and her family were among them. Yue Qin tells her that she gave him a reason to survive. He takes the opportunity to give her some advice: the prince of Xian is dangerous, it wouldn't be so easy to carry out the revenge plan. But she says that she just wants to live well. And that the denguo cakes he gave her already work as retribution. He takes the opportunity to give Her some tonics. As Yue Qin leaves, he sees Mei Lin feeling a little unwell (but he probably thought it was due to the whipping, but in fact he was referring to the poison in her body taking effect). She remembered the cox seeds at that moment.Prince Murong Xuan Li is feeding his dangerous eagle. Minister Zhang arrives and informs him that he has already eliminated the 300 Momai warriors. Minister Zhang uses cunning and says that he can even die with the death penalty for the crimes he committed, but Prince Xuan Li should worry about Prince JH, because if he clears his name and becomes a general again, he would soon also resume the title of crown prince. Zhang leaves, and Xuan Li tells his other subordinate to eliminate the 300 Momai soldiers (who Zhang probably kept alive). The episode ends with Prince Xuan Li's joy upon learning that the female general Luo Mei has just arrived. The last scene is Luo Mei looking like a great heroine, dressed in her armor, coming at a run on her horse to Yan.PS:A question: Don't the Momai warriors belong to the shadow army? Who is the leader after all? Are there two factions? And one belongs to JH and the other to Xuan Li?Some of them are used in assassination attempts on JH. But among the other part would be Mei Lin trained by Jing He? (Why did Jing He tell Mei Lin that she was abandoned by the shadow army? And she told him that he should worry because the shadow army would not give up on killing him. (This part of the plot is a bit confusing).unbeliebubble Don't the Momai warriors belong to the shadow army?No, Mei Lin was trained by "The Shadow works Faction" for the planned revenge. However, to frame war Minister Zhang YIn and the momai army. Prince Jing poisoned Mei Lin with Momai poison. So as to mimic the way Momai warriors operate. So that, when Mei Lin would die assassinating Prince Jing at the royal banquet. War Minister Zhang Yin would be suspected. This is why Mei Lin thought that Zhang Yin was the Master of Shadow Works.Long story short Jing He created a fake Momai army to frame Momai army.The leader of Momai army is Minister Zhang.The leader of Eastern place guards is Crown Prince MRXL.The leader od Shadow work faction in MRJHunbeliebubble "But when he got up from the ground, he stepped on the flowers (was this already a warning about how the end of the drama would be???)."To me he didn't step on the flowers but besides them. Because the flowers were still vertical and not horizontal. I saw his foot passing very near though. But the flower did not seem smashed. Am I dreaming?eliteles1 VIP I've rewatched this scene 3 times now. I think he really did step on it, but the flowers still stood firm (so...it's like the ending plot doesn't match up with it. Again, the symbolism of "survival"/"immortality" (in this life).
