Episode 48
Wei Zheng let Xia Dong know that Mei Changsu was Xiao Shu.Thinking of the hardships he had gone through, she was filled with emotion and tears filled her eyes.
Mei Changsu advised Meng Zhi and Ni Huang not to stop him.Because he carries a blood feud and the hope of the 70,000 Red Flame Army to Zhaoxue, which is why he chose the first detoxification method in the first place.Nihuang blamed herself so much that she was not by Xiaoshu's side when he was in the most painful time.Meng Zhi asked Mei Changsu to put aside all the affairs and rest peacefully. The matter of overturning the case would be solved after King Jing ascends the throne.Mei Changsu disagreed. He said that the trial must be re-tried when the current emperor is in power so as not to be criticized by future generations. He wanted to make the Red Flame Army completely innocent.Nihuang asked Mei Changsu how long she could live. Mei Changsu couldn't bear to make her sad and said that there were still ten years.Nihuang said affectionately that she was satisfied to be with him for ten years.
Mei Changsu was exhausted and fell ill again.He was worried that he would die soon, so he asked Lin Chen to find a way to give him a year so that he could see the unjust case retried and see the 70,000 wronged souls brought to justice.Lin Chen couldn't defeat him and couldn't stop him from working hard, so he had to find a way to treat her.
Xia Jiang secretly placed the secret letter in a gift box and forwarded it to Concubine Yue Xian from the palace maid Qin'er.After Jingyan was established as the crown prince, he was diligent in political affairs and won the appreciation of Emperor Liang.
Qin'er handed the secret letter to Concubine Yue Xian and persuaded her to agree to cooperate with Xia Jiang.Concubine Yue Xian pretended to be seriously ill and her life was at stake, so she deceived Emperor Liang into Zhaoren Palace.Concubine Yue Xian talked about the secret letter in a cryptic manner, and Emperor Liang impatiently asked her to reveal the contents of the secret letter.Concubine Yue Xian told him that the secret letter was Xia Jiang's confession. He not only testified that Mei Changsu had been poisoned by fire and cold, but also testified that Mei Changsu was Lin Shu, the marshal of the Red Flame Army who escaped from death in Meiling.After hearing this, Emperor Liang felt as if he was struck by lightning. After reading the secret letter, he looked solemn and immediately summoned the Taishi Pavilion to search for information on fire and cold poison. At the same time, he asked Concubine Yue Xian to send a letter to Xia Jiang. If the confession was true, his previous sins would be absolved.
Lin Chen successfully detoxified Nie Feng, and Xia Dong felt relieved and prepared to return to prison in exchange for Gong Yu.At this time, Mei Changsu told her that she was not going to die soon, and solemnly entrusted Nihuang to her.Mei Changsu was getting sick more and more frequently, so Lin Chen tapped his acupuncture points and forced him to treat with peace of mind.
Xia Jiang decided to go to the palace to meet the emperor.He knew that if this trip failed, he would definitely die. Before leaving, he told Qin'er that if he died, he would use all his latent power to trouble him to the death and take the lives of the few people he had planned.
