Episode 26

Meilin became blind due to the influence of poisonous moth wing powder. Fortunately, Murong Jinghe used the medicine bandage in time to alleviate the toxicity.When Yue Qin arrived in a hurry, he found that Murong Jinghe had left quietly.Fortunately, Mei Lin's eyes were not seriously injured. Yue Qin found out that the explosion in the mine was caused by Ming Ju, so he teamed up with the high priest to set up a trap and used the divine prophecy to make King Xi Yan mistakenly think that Ming Ju had rebellious intentions.King Xi Yan was convinced and ordered Ming Ju to hand over half of his troops to the command of Yue Qin to build the Tower of Eternal Life, which in fact deprived him of his military power.

Yue Qin guarded Mei Lin all night and took good care of her. It was not until she saw the light again that the big stone in her heart finally fell to the ground.He revealed the plan with the high priest to Mei Lin, and said that Ming Ju had paid the price and would not pose a threat to them in the short term.Due to the summons of King Yan of the West, Yue Qin had to leave Qingzhou temporarily. After a few words of advice to Meilin, he set out on his way home.

The business of Yanlaixiang Pavilion is booming day by day. Meilin comes to see Ajia, but unexpectedly learns from Wei Laoer that King Jing is spurned by the people and even injured by stones thrown at him.She had mixed feelings in her heart and decided to personally persuade the stubborn Li Shijiang.She recalled the past and emphasized that the Weibei Army had made great contributions to the survival of the people of Qingzhou, and that the real culprit of the Qingzhou fire was someone else.

Li Shijiang couldn't believe it at first, thinking that Mei Lin was King Jing's lobbyist.Meilin said frankly that she came here for the people of Qingzhou.As a result, Li Shijiang softened his attitude towards the Weibei Army. When Murong Jinghe came to visit, he asked Murong Jinghe to learn the craft of carving stone tablets.

Murong Jinghe was carving words in the rain, his hands dripping with blood but said nothing. Li Shijiang was deeply moved and asked him to write a list of the victims in Qingzhou.With the help of Mei Lin, Murong Jinghe collected the names of all the victims.When Mei Lin saw her father's name, she was heartbroken.

On the day when the Wanmin Monument was built, Murong Jinghe apologized in public, blaming himself for failing to protect the people of Qingzhou, and vowed to atone for the Murong family day and night.Mei Lin stepped forward to clear the name of the Weibei Army, pointing out that they had fought tooth and nail to defend the enemy and protect the people, and would never wield a knife against the people even if they were slandered.Therefore, the names of thirteen thousand soldiers should be engraved on the stone tablets.

The people of Qingzhou suddenly realized and reached a reconciliation with King Jing, and the Weibei Army became their heroes again.Murong Jinghe won the trust and support of the people of Qingzhou and laid a solid foundation for the governance of Qingzhou.Qingzhou became increasingly prosperous, and Emperor Yan issued an order to commend Murong Jinghe and allow him to rebuild the Weibei Army to comfort the heroic spirits.

Yue Qin returned to Qingzhou and brought a mission from King Xi Yan - he and Mei Lin needed to light an ever-lasting lamp for King Xi Yan at the Holy Mountain in Qingzhou.Yue Qin became increasingly dissatisfied with his father's actions. He believed that he was too superstitious about immortality and spent huge sums of money to build the Immortality Tower, but ignored the people's livelihood and lives.

At this time, Zigu wrote to Meilin and Yueqin, telling them that they were pregnant and expressing his worries about becoming a mother.Yue Qin read his sister's letter with emotion and realized that time passed by and his sister had grown up.

Yue Qin went to Murong Jinghe privately, informed him of his plan and asked for his help.He revealed that after lighting the longevity lamp, he would take Meilin back to Xiyan to take the antidote.Murong Jinghe felt deeply guilty and blamed himself for drugging Mei Lin, which made it difficult for them to see each other.He looked at the red fruit tree in the yard and knew that the red fruit could only play a role in Laowozi Village and could no longer fulfill his promise to Meilin.

Mei Lin had a drink and party with her sisters. Yue Qin saw that she was reluctant to leave Qingzhou and secretly vowed to give her her freedom.Ming Ju secretly planned to destroy Mei Lin's sedan chair.However, there is a rule in Xiyan that the young monarch and concubine cannot fall to the ground when praying.Murong Jinghe disguised himself as a sedan bearer and carried Mei Lin up the mountain, but she recognized him at a glance.Mei Lin understands that although the mountain road is long, it will eventually end.She was grateful to Murong Jinghe for saving her from the mine, but Murong Jinghe remained silent until he carried her to the top of the mountain and witnessed her and Yue Qin completing the ceremony before leaving sadly.
