Kam Ching
discovers in the 'Golden Stone Lost Collection' about sulfur and Dam Fan.
She was happily thinking about making sulfur for Siu Lung when Jau Hin
persuades her that her love might make Siu Lung stay here. Kam Ching
smiles sadly and says that she should respect Siu Lung's decision.
After getting
directions from the person who sells the Dam Fan powder, Kam Ching decides
to go personally up the mountain to pick up some of the Dam Fan herself.
She also took this opportunity to think carefully about her relationship
with Siu Lung.
Jau Hin sighs in
resignation and Siu Lung feels rueful after finding out about what Kam
Ching was doing. He was not really listening to what Ying Jing and Lei Si
were discussing. Ying Jing was suggesting about promoting Lei Si to the
rank of 'grand historian' but was afraid of Bat Wai interfering with his
plans. Siu Lung proposes on winning over Lou Oi so Ju Gei will also help
him in his cause.
Ying Jing
successfully convinced Lou Oi to persuade Ju Gei to go to the Imperial
court and listen in to state affairs. Ying Jing also bestows to him a
golden plate that allows the holder to escape death by any official.
When Ying Jing
and Ju Gei worked together, they were successful in promoting Lei Si to
'grand historian' and Bat Wai was very angry. He hurriedly discussed
countermoves to this development.
Neung Yung knows
that Bat Wai was dealing with Siu Lung and was worried that it would
affect her relationship with Ging Jun. She sees that he was helping Siu
Lung and angrily sent him away from her.
Ying Jing and Ju
Gei, echoing each other, had successfully adopted the seal tax proposal
and denied Bat Wai's proposal for fixing the large canal. They were very
happy about doing that.
Bat Wai asks Ju
Gei about why she was working with Ying Jing to fight him. Ju Gei answers
that Ying Jing wasn't his true child. Bat Wai realizes the truth and
maniacally held Ju Gei's head. Luckily Lou Oi appears in time.
As Bat Wai
thought about what happened, the more angrier he became. He swears an oath
that Ying Jing will never be able to hold the throne as long as he lives.
He secretly goes to see Sing Giu and agrees to aid him in getting the
throne back for him. |
