Episode 39 recap: He Lan Xin Yue is going to rescue Zhao Guang Ye.
Qiu Yi, the Princess Chang, came to meet Shang Guan Zui and expressed that she couldn't tolerate Shang Guan Zui's aggressive behavior here. The princes are going to the execution ground soon, and she invited Shang Guan Zui to come and watch if he wanted to. Meng Ji said that Zhao Guang Ye intends to burn down Tai Chu and eliminate Li. He Lan Xin Yue quickly realized this and said that Zhao Guang Ye intends to die for Tai Chu, but she must stop him, even if she couldn't persuade the princes, she would go herself.
Zhao Guang Ye said that now Shang Guan Zui would feel compelled and have to hand over Tai Chu. Everyone will come to witness the burning of Tai Chu in Dong Lin, and Shang Guan Zui will surely believe it, allowing him to save Tai Chu. Princess Qiu Yi was heartbroken, and Zhao Guang Ye told her not to cry anymore because others wouldn't believe it if she continued. Zhao Guang Ye also thought that Princess Qiu Yi shouldn't stay here. If Zhao Chenyang found out, he definitely wouldn't agree.
Meng Yi Lang said that Zhao Guang Ye is trying to persuade him because he doesn't understand himself. But it doesn't matter if he doesn't understand himself. Zhao Chenyang understands himself. He didn't try to persuade Zhao Guang Ye because he knows what Zhao Guang Ye wants to do. They should focus on their own tasks and not hinder each other.
Shang Guan Zui and the kings of various countries gathered in Dong Lin. The King of Nan Chu mentioned that they had signed a treaty of mutual trade with Dong Lin recently, but now they are all gathered here. Others thought that Nan Chu and Dong Lin were on good terms, and they weren't afraid of that monster, but they were afraid now. Princess Qiu Yi came out and announced that the execution ground was ready and asked everyone to follow her inside.
The kings of various countries felt that Princess Qiu Yi was the princess of Nan Chu and wondered if it was appropriate for her to manage the affairs of Dong Lin. Princess Qiu Yi stated that she had sworn a brother-sister oath with Zhao Guang Ye, and now the princess of Dong Lin had passed away, and the marquis of Dong Lin died in battle, so she could represent Dong Lin now.
Princess Qiu Yi explained that Zhao Guang Ye and Tai Chu were like brothers. Tai Chu was not a monster but the sacred tree protecting them. They had no choice but to hand over Tai Chu due to the circumstances. Zhao Guang Ye would definitely not want that. Did they want Zhao Guang Ye to watch his brother being burned to death with his own eyes?
Everyone didn't say much. Princess Qiu Yi led everyone inside and stated that as long as they signed a treaty of non-aggression, Zhao Guang Ye would hand over Tai Chu. Everyone signed it. Shang Guan Zui asked Princess Qiu Yi where Zhao Guang Ye was. Princess Qiu Yi said she couldn't tolerate Shang Guan Zui's aggressive behavior here. The kings were going to the execution ground soon, and if he wanted to see, he could come over.
Meng Ji received the news as well, saying that Zhao Guang Ye was going to hand over Tai Chu. Meng Ji felt very frustrated and thought that the kings couldn't be relied upon. He Lan Xin Yue said that Zhao Guang Ye couldn't possibly do such a thing, there must be a misunderstanding.
Meng Ji said that Zhao Guang Ye was forced by the world to burn Tai Chu. It's very clear. Could there be any other misunderstanding? Could there be another Li who would take Zhao Guang Ye's place like in the past? He Lan Xin Yue realized that Zhao Guang Ye intended to die for Tai Chu, and she had to stop him, even if she couldn't persuade the kings, she would go herself.
Meng Ji stopped He Lan Xin Yue, thinking that even if she went, it wouldn't make a difference. Now that Zhao Guang Ye wanted to die for Tai Chu, it was a good thing. Everyone would think that Tai Chu was already dead and wouldn't bother Tai Chu anymore. He asked He Lan Xin Yue to stay here and accompany Tai Chu for recovery. If Tai Chu didn't recover, his own Li wouldn't be able to recover either.
He Lan Xin Yue held a hairpin against Meng Ji. Meng Ji said she was a puppet and He Lan Xin Yue couldn't kill her. He Lan Xin Yue then pressed the hairpin against her own neck and pleaded with Meng Ji to let her go.
He Lan Xin Yue's blood fell on Tai Chu, and Tai Chu regained consciousness. He Lan Xin Yue was very happy to see that.
