Episode 3: I Wouldn't Steal My Brother's Precious Things

Brothers who love each other or brothers who hate each other? Behind the words about their childhood lies years and years of intrigue? I found the bow of the rising sun. Elder brother, why did you always let me win? Now that you are the crown prince, you don't have to do this anymore. The woman in the painting means something to Jing He. In front of the mausoleum of the dead of the Wei Bei army. "I regret having shown mercy." But this time I will show no mercy. (Such a powerful army being defeated by villagers? This is explained by the army's honor of always protecting the people at any cost. That is why they fell into the ambush and died at the hands of other mortals, and the fire was their executioner.) But it was the same fire that destroyed these same people of Qingzhou City. Jing He and his soldiers with their shining armor were unable to protect them. This is an irony. And as a reward for his bravery he became an invalid with broken legs, as they always referred to him. Princess Zi Gu gives Mei Lin lucky stones. Throw them into the water and decide her choices. Mei Lin does so and makes a decision. She goes to the emperor's banquet and will kill Morong Jing He, as the master of shadows ordered her (and thus obtain the antiduct for the poison). Yue Qin recognizes Mei Lin as the girl he fell in love with at first sight when he was a teenager. At the banquet of the alliance between the two kingdoms, Xian and Yian, Mei Lin was among the beauties. At the moment when Murong Xuan Li presents herself to choose Mei Lin, Jing He gets up from his wheelchair and surprises everyone who thought he was disabled. The Momai poison was collapsing in Mei Lin's body but she found the strength to try to fulfill her mission of killing Murong Jing He. The ceremony ends with Murong Jing He lying on the ground after Mei Lin stabbed him with a hairpin. But it wasn't in a deadly place, as he later realized. The inner silk armor protected him. But Jing He, 10 years ago, underwent a painful and radical treatment to avoid becoming disabled. He kept pretending to continue with the plan to deceive his enemies. Mei Lin is chained and suffers torture at the hands of Murong Xuan Li. Jing He doesn't allow her to be killed, but he knows that she will endure the torture because she was prepared for it. Jing He watches Mei Lin's conversation with the immortal flower. He pays attention to this and reflects inwardly. His eyes at this moment seemed moved as he watched Mei Lin crawling on the dirty ground and talking to the small flowers that grew between the small holes in the stone floor.

At the beginning of ep. 3 we have Jinghe drunk painting a picture of a woman, back towards us, reaching towards a branch with blossoms. She has a dress with blue patterns and a white shawl. Someone grabs his hand and he responds, "Beauty" tries to kiss the hand. I wondered who the woman in the painting was. But 'Beauty' would indicate that it was Mei Lin and the kiss shows that by ep. 3, he had feelings for her, More than the gossip and our understanding of the character would indicate.

Great insight on your part. And isn't that the same drawing he gifted Mei Lin episodes later and she disrespectfully throws it into the river?
