Episode 38: Xie Chongjin and Rong Xia cooperate to bring down Jiang Luo
Rong Xia shot an arrow at Banhua. Xie Chongjin didn’t expect that he would kill Banhua with his own hands, and his eyes were full of shock and surprise. Rong Xia immediately ordered an attack on the city. Xie Chongjin was injured when he was attacked by Akqi and Shi Jin at the city gate. He was later rescued by his men. He returned to the main hall and informed Jiang Luo that the city gate had been lost and he could only surrender.
Shi Feixian believed that since Rong Xia shot Ban Hua, he would definitely make General Ban’s subordinates angry, so he could use General Ban’s subordinates to lead the Imperial Guard to resist Rong Xia. As expected, the two veterans of General Ban were guarding the gate. The resurrected Banhua appeared with a tiger charm and asked the two veterans to open the door. Banhua led the soldiers into the hall.
Seeing Banhua come back from the dead, Jiang Luo and Shi Feixian were in disbelief. The situation reversed, Jiang Luo was taken away, and Shi Feixian was left in the hall. Then she knew that Xie Chongjin had betrayed Jiang Luo. He had cooperated with Rong Xia and used Banhua to fake his death to deceive Jiang Luo and Shi Feixian. Shi Feixian was upset and angry. She was only one step away from becoming the Queen of Daye, but now it seemed that her defeat was certain.
Ban Hua did not kill her in the end, and Jiang Luo escaped from the hall and saw Xie Chongjin holding a life-saving straw, but he did not expect that Xie Chongjin had betrayed him long ago. Xie Chongjin claimed that he betrayed him first. Jiang Luo remembered what he said to Shi Feixian and became dejected. Rong Xia ordered people to lock him into a side hall.
Xie Wanyu threw a letter of divorce into Jiang Luo’s face, and Jiang Luo was shocked and speechless. The Ban family finally returned to Ban Mansion, and this period of wandering seemed like a lifetime ago. Rong Xia’s chest was injured, and it was only today that Banhua realized that the man in Xuanyi in the dream was him. The great cause returned to the orthodoxy, Jiang Zhang ascended to the throne of emperor, and Rong Xia took the initiative to ask for punishment at the court.
Previously, he mistakenly conveyed the late emperor’s edict, causing Jiang Luo to seek power and usurp the throne, so he took the initiative to resign from office. Jiang Zhang said he would punish him, but he actually wanted to abdicate the throne to Rong Xia. The courtiers were in an uproar and knelt down one after another begging him to think again, but Jiang Zhang had already made up his mind. Banhua stood up and accused him of being ridiculous, and then left the hall angrily. Rong Xia was instructed to follow her out.
The Queen Mother firmly opposed Jiang Zhang’s decision, and the Queen did not understand. Jiang Zhang began to suspect that Su Yue was not in love with himself, but the queen of this great cause. Rong Xia conveyed Jiang Zhang’s will and sentenced Jiang Luo and Shi Feixian to life imprisonment. The Ban family’s pomegranates not only survived, but also blossomed and bore fruit. Ban Hua and her parents teased Ban Heng and asked him when he would go to Xie Wanyu to propose marriage.
Ban Heng always felt that Xie Wanyu had just divorced Jiang Luo, so he seemed to be taking advantage of her by rashly proposing marriage. Mrs. Yin reminded Banhua to go to Shi’s house to thank Shi Jin when she had time. Su Yue hoped that Shi Jin could force the imperial army to take back his life, get rid of Rong Xia, and assist Jiang Zhang in ascending to power, so that the Shi family would have real power.
But Shi Jin has long seen clearly that these powers are just floating clouds, and family is the most important thing. Ban Heng and his brother Zhou Changxiao had a rare reunion. He said that he helped Zhou Changxiao tell him about his marriage to Miss Sun, but he wanted to help him propose marriage to Xie Wanyu. At this time, the Xie family gathered together. Xie Qilin said that Xie Wanyu and Ban Heng had a close relationship.
Uncle Xie was overjoyed and claimed that if Xie Wanyu liked Ban Heng, he would propose marriage in person. Xie Wanyu was shy again. The Queen Mother talked to Banhua alone and gave her the imperial edict from the late emperor. She said that she was worried about the Ban family’s defeat and specially used this edict to make Banhua the Princess of Changle.
The Queen Mother stopped being secretive and asked Cheng Amber what she thought. Banhua said that Cheng Amber had no other thoughts about the throne, and she finally let go of her worries.
