Bright Era of China Entertainment

"Crack." The potato chips in Xiao Xi's mouth made a crisp sound, which was actually a bit scary in the middle of the night, as if a monster was grinding its teeth.

Xiao Xi, who was immersed in the plot, didn't feel anything at all. She clicked on the next episode and continued watching the show.

As the episode plays out, the subsequent plot slowly unfolds.

The people of Kyoto are enjoying the peace and tranquility brought by the peace of southern Xinjiang, and the prosperity and noise of various shops bear witness to the peace in Daliang.

However, the Chiyan ration case seems to have exploded the fuse of this peace. The people in the city are ignorant and still maintain a harmonious atmosphere, but there are already undercurrents of dark people lurking everywhere.

The camera shows Zhuo Mansion. Zhuo Yanqing, the minister of household affairs, heard that his son Zhuo Di disappeared and ran away. He threw the tea cup in his hand to the ground and looked very angry.

"A loving mother often loses her sons!" he accused Mrs. Zhuo.

"How about asking the Duke for help?" Mrs. Zhuo was anxious.

Xiao Xi looked at Zhuo Yanqing in the screen, pouted and wanted to say: "It's been exposed, he is indeed a bad guy!"

But the next few conversations between the Zhuo couple looking back on the past made Xiao Xi full of emotions.

It is true that the father and son of the Zhuo family are at odds, and so is Zhuo Yanqing's upright and upright family tradition. This also coincides with the result of Prince Jing helping Mu Nihuang investigate the Zhuo family at the beginning.

It is true that Zhuo Di only wanted to be recognized by his father, but Xiao Xi did not expect that Zhuo Yanqing and Chi Yan's case had nothing to do with half a dime.

Zhuo Di committed a crime and exchanged military rations so that Chi Yan's former army was poisoned. This was a serious crime that Zhuo Di could not bear with his life even if he had ten heads.

At that time, Zhuo Di was panicked and extremely frightened, so he went to Zhuo Yanqing and told him everything.

Zhuo Yanqing didn't expect that her son would be stupid enough to do such a thing, but it was useless to talk about it at this point, so he could only find a way to remedy it.

It stands to reason that Zhuo Yanqing is a good official who acts in an upright and aboveboard manner. If his son commits such a big thing, wouldn't it be a good idea to kill him in the name of justice?

The Zhuo family has been upright for generations. If the Zhuo Di incident occurs, the Zhuo family's reputation will plummet in an instant.

As the saying goes, a person who does good things all his life can be completely destroyed by one bad thing.

It is for this reason that Zhuo Yanqing wants to keep Zhuo Di, stabilize Zhuo Di and stop him from messing around, and change the world's view of Zhuo Di, and also make the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty change their view of his son Zhuo Di.

Zhuo Yanqing, who never succumbs to others, never flatters, never forms cliques for personal gain, and acts openly and aboveboard, finds help from the Prime Minister of the Left, Ning Guogong Xie Yu, under such circumstances.

Right Prime Minister Wang Song was a veteran of the late emperor's time. When Emperor Liang Xiao Xuan ascended the throne, he promoted Xie Yu to be the Left Prime Minister. With Xiao Xuan here, Xie Yu, the Left Prime Minister, was obviously more powerful. This is why Zhuo Yanqing asked Xie Yu for help. .

Zhuo Yanqing did not tell Xie Yu about Zhuo Di's involvement in the Red Flame Army Food Case. He just said that he wanted his son to go on the right path, that is, an official career. However, Zhuo Di's naughty temper was well known to everyone in the court. Such a person Being an official is a bit difficult, so I asked Xie Yu to give me some advice.

Xie Yu came up with a plan to let Zhuo Di spend all his wealth to do good deeds for two years and gain a good reputation among the people of Kyoto.

This strategy also coincides with the details that Prince Jing investigated for Mu Nihuang: in the sixth year of Qingping, the two years after the Chiyan tragedy, Zhuo Di did all kinds of good things in Kyoto.

After that, Zhuo Di went from county magistrate, to county magistrate, to Jing Zhaoyin, everything fell into place.

Xie Yu's help allowed Zhuo Yanqing to join Prime Minister Zuo's force.

Zhuo Yanqing's help showed his recognition of Zhuo Di.

It was Zhuo Di's dream to be recognized by his father, which calmed his panic. From then on, his temperament changed drastically, from a stubborn person to a good official who relieved the people's worries.

It's just up to the audience to interpret this recognition, whether it is Zhuo Yanqing's sincerity, or whether it is to preserve the family tradition and the Zhuo family's reputation.

As for who instigated Zhuo Di to exchange military rations, there is currently no explanation in Zhuo Yanqing's plot.

And does Prime Minister Xie Yu know about this?So far, it seems that nothing has been revealed to prove that Xie Yu is a bad person.

"I saw it wrong." Xiao Xi sighed.

When Zhuo Yanqing and Yan Hou appeared in the boat scene, she felt that these two people were bad guys.

Now it seems that Zhuo Yanqing is not a bad person, and has nothing to do with the Chi Yan tragedy. He was just tricked by his own son, did something that went against his heart, and was guilty of harboring criminals.

I vaguely remember that when the character Zhuo Yanqing appeared on the stage, although she looked upright, she always felt unconfident when speaking.

After watching the plot of Zhuo Yanqing, I realized why this character always felt powerless.

It turns out that this was a bad thing.

"The acting is really good." Xiao Xi did not forget to give a thumbs up to the veteran actor.

As the plot progresses, when the account book is announced in court, and when it is explained that the food records in the account book are the Red Flame army rations ten years ago, when it is learned that the Red Flame army rations were divided into ten and sold to various states for a total of ten After the family business...

"Wow——" The entire court's expression changed upon hearing this, and everyone was shocked.

Although it is not yet known whether what is recorded in this account book is the truth, and it needs to be verified with the ten merchants in the record, but this account book was collected from Jingzhao Mansion, and there seems to be no need to confirm its authenticity.

When the Jingzhao Mansion was searched, all the servants and maids of the Jingzhao Mansion, the government guards, and everyone from the Xuanjing Department were present. Even if the people behind the scenes wanted to hide the ledger, they were powerless and could only publish it in the court.

Everyone knows what this ledger represents.

There is a mistake in the Meiling case!
The Chiyan tragedy was unjust!

Under Xiaoxi's careful observation...

Prince Jing clenched his fists. After ten years, the situation finally opened up.

Prime Minister Zuo Xie Yu frowned slightly, lowering his eyebrows and wondering what he was thinking.

Right Prime Minister Wang Song raised his eyebrows, as if he was surprised by the appearance of this account book, but in an instant he calmed down as if he was wise.

The Dali Temple Minister's behavior was a little strange, and there was a bit of disgust in his eyes, as if he was upset by the appearance of this account book.

"Is Yanhou the big boss?" Xiao Xi was suspicious.

Only Zhuo Yanqing was anxious. This matter related to the Zhuo family, and once it was proven, it would be a heinous crime. No matter how steady he was, he couldn't hold his breath.

Xia Jiang, the Minister of Xuanjing who reported the matter in front of the palace, was as calm as ever, showing no emotion, as if he was handling the case impartially.

"Check!!" Emperor Liang said the last word, letting the restless court disperse.

The joy that Princess Nihuang brought to pacify Southern Xinjiang has disappeared, and the undercurrent of panic has begun.

Zhuo Yanqing, who valued her reputation more than her own life, could not contain her anger in the end. Due to the disappearance of her son Zhuo Di and the account book left behind, she was temporarily dismissed from her post and imprisoned in Zhuo Mansion by the imperial guards. among.

The Xuanjing Division has the power to supervise hundreds of officials and has the duty to inspect the world. A fourth-rank official of the current Dynasty ran away under the imperial city of Kyoto. This is the failure of the Xuanjing Division.

The camera shows Xia Jiang, and he is seen hurriedly arriving at the official office of Dali Temple to meet with the minister Yanhou of Dali Temple.

These two old foxes started a duel that made Xiao Xi dizzy.

"Brother Yan, what should we do now? His Majesty suppressed Chi Yan's case in order to stabilize the court. After all, if the court is unstable, the world will be in chaos."

This is what Xia Jiang said. From this, we can understand the reason why Emperor Liang suppressed the case, and also because his next words make it difficult to tell whether they are true or false.

"Once this ledger came out, there were signs that Chi Yan's case could be reversed. This is against His Majesty's taboo." Xia Jiang smiled bitterly: "But Your Majesty asked me to investigate thoroughly. Should this be investigated or not, stupid brother?" Now we are in a dilemma, I hope Brother Yan can give me some advice."

Xiao Xi was confused. From the moment Xia Dong wanted to test Xia Jiang's plot, from the perspective of the interests of the protagonist group, she assumed that Xia Jiang was also a bad guy.

But now Xia Jiang comes to see Yanhou?What's going on?
Judging from the attitude of the two when they met, the two did not seem to be on the same team. So, is Xia Jiang good or bad?Or is it really as she guessed, Yanhou is the big boss?
"Brother Xia, you and I are both bureaucrats with the power to supervise and handle cases. The Xuanjing Division and Dali Temple also have the important responsibility of stabilizing the court and the people. Just handle your duties well, why bother looking forward and backward."

"Zhuo Di ran away, and I don't know where he went. There are thousands of miles in the world, and finding someone is like looking for a needle in a haystack. Brother Xia has to work hard for His Majesty again."

After hearing Yanhou's words, Xia Jiang was stunned for a moment and then understood the meaning.

Xia Jiang Zhengran said: "Thank you, Brother Yan, for your advice."

Xiao Xi was a little confused. What did this point to?What does it mean?

She switched back to the browser and browsed the topics about Yan Hou in "Legend of Red Flame" on Weibo.

[There is a high chance that Yan Hou is evil. The conversation between him and Xia Jiang can be roughly understood as the world in Daliang is so big that it is normal to not be able to find anyone.

To put it simply, Yanhou did not want Zhuo Di to be found, but he also wanted Xia Jiang to do his part. This can be interpreted as sending people from the Xuanjing Division to track down whether they can find him, or whether they can take him with them if they find him. I’ll tell you another story when I get back. 】

"I'll go! So Yan Hou is really the big BOSS behind the scenes!" Xiao Xi stared, as if she had discovered some big secret.

"Then Xia Dong's plan failed?" she continued.

Xia Dong gave the account book to Xia Jiang and asked Xia Jiang to take charge of the next thing. If Xia Jiang carries out the killing order when tracking Zhuo Di, it means that Xia Jiang is bad.However, Xia Jiang cracked this plan and went to Dali Temple to find Yanhou for advice.

So, if Zhuo Di was hunted down halfway, was this an order from the Xuanjing Division or an order from Dali Temple?Did Xia Jiang kill him, or did Xia Jiang listen to Yan Hou's words and kill him?
This...things are getting more and more complicated.

If Xia Jiang did it deliberately and found out about Yanhou to confuse Mu Nihuang and others, then Xia Jiang's IQ was extraordinary, which also meant that Xia Jiang had already understood Xia Dong's thoughts when he got the account book.

If Xia Jiang is really looking for Yanhou, then from the conversation just now, we can roughly know that Yanhou should be the person behind the scenes, or one of the people behind the scenes.

But the audience didn't know what Xia Jiang was thinking, and Xiao Xi, like the audience, couldn't see Xia Jiang's true face at all.

However, when Xiao Xi was somewhat certain that Yanhou was the man behind the scenes, Yanhou's next behavior confused her again.

"According to the records in the account book, Zhuo Di sold the general's grain." Yanhou Yun Danfengqing said: "If Zhuo Di burned the general's grain, then nothing might be found."

"Zhuo Di is greedy for money?"

"Three hundred carts of military rations are a huge amount of wealth, but it doesn't seem like... it will make Zhuo Di greedy. Will he leave evidence for such a sin for someone to investigate?"

The indifference on Yanhou's face disappeared, but he looked at Xia Jiang with piercing eyes.

"Brother Xia, tell me, why does Zhuo Di sell military rations instead of burning the ruins? Is he really greedy for money?"

Xiaoxi was surprised when she heard Yanhou's words.

Does Yanhou's question mean that he doesn't know about it?
If Yanhou doesn't know about this, does it mean that Yanhou is not the mastermind behind it?
When Li Hou asked, he stared straight at Xia Jiang, his eyes seeming to say that Xia Jiang was the man behind the scenes.

"My head is going to explode! Who is good and who is bad!" Xiao Xi was completely confused. No wonder the comments on the Internet said that they couldn't figure out who was the bad guy and who was the good guy.

At first I thought Zhuo Yanqing was bad, but the plot proves that Zhuo Yanqing is not bad.

Later, Xia Dong thought that Xia Jiang was bad, and Xia Jiang's performance could not be judged to be good or bad.

Just now, I thought Yanhou was the boss behind the scenes, but now Yanhou's words seemed to prove his innocence. Yanhou didn't seem to know much about these things, and instead pointed the finger at Xia Jiang.

Xiao Xi couldn't figure it out, her brain was not full, so she just stopped thinking about it and just followed the plot to find out.

The conversation between the two old foxes also raised a question: Why did Zhuo Di sell the military rations?
"Yes, selling it will leave evidence behind. Wouldn't it be better to burn it?" Xiao Xi muttered.

Following this doubt, the camera went to the back garden of Mu Nihuang's courtyard.

Mei Changsu and Mu Nihuang were also discussing this doubt. Why didn't Zhuo Di burn the grain?
If Zhuo Di's IQ was really that low, it would have been revealed over the years, and there would be no need to wait for them to investigate.

This may indicate that someone behind the scenes instigated Zhuo Di to do this.

This also definitely shows that someone is covering up everything behind the scenes.

"Three hundred carts of military rations, nearly [-] million yuan, where did this money go?" Liu Yifei sat on a chair in the secret room of Prince Jing's palace and muttered to herself.

"Yeah, where did the money go?" Ren Quan sighed to himself.

With this new suspense, the four protagonists perform their respective duties.

Prince Jing was walking in the court, and the Chi Yan tragedy was unveiled, and he was responsible for attracting firepower.

According to netizens, Prince Jing is the emperor’s punching bag and commits evil.

Xiao Xi felt funny when she thought about it.

Xia Dong took advantage of his position in the Xuanjing Department to read some secret files in an attempt to find clues.

Meng Zhi, the commander of the Forbidden Army, is a non-staff member of the protagonist group and is on call at any time.

Mei Changsu went deep into the private market, intending to find the whereabouts of a large sum of nearly [-] million that year.

In Mei Changsu's memory plot, another big accident happened to the Red Flame Army during the battle.

"It's just a problem with the food. This knife..." Chu Xuan's face was splashed with blood after the fight. Looking at the chipped sword in his hand, he said coldly: "What do the people in the Ministry of Industry do for food!"

The plot of memories is not much compared to the main film, but every memory scene is very meaningful.

The emotional scenes between Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei are used to create sensational memories, to observe the cruel scene of the Red Flame Army's bloody battle from Mei Changsu's perspective, and to create suspense from the memory scenes.

These memory scenes are edited in just the right proportion, and they are interspersed to give the plot an over-the-top plot and make Xiao Xi watch it with relish.

Just seeing the scene of problems with weapons and equipment, Xiao Xi couldn't help but sigh: "This is really going to drive the Red Flame Army to annihilation."

At the same time, the plot throws up new suspense about the whereabouts of the money from selling military grain, and another suspense is added. Why are there problems with the weapons and equipment of the Red Flame Army? What is the connection with the Ministry of Industry?

With two new suspense, we come to Mu Nihuang's plot.

Amidst the undercurrents in the court, Mu Nihuang wandered around the palace, and the warmth with family members such as Concubine Jing, the Empress Dowager, and Princess Liyang finally diluted the ups and downs of so many episodes.

Only when meeting her family can she see the soft smile on Liu Yifei's face.

Perhaps the pressure and heaviness that the Chi Yan case brought to Mu Nihuang can only be comforted by family members.

"Liu Yifei is so beautiful." Xiao Xi appreciated the rare daily drama.

However, a piece of news brought by Xia Dong instantly diluted the short and dull plot atmosphere.

"When Dali Temple performed an autopsy on Gong Yu, they found a red mark on Gong Yu's body. At first, the people in Dali Temple didn't take it seriously. After sending the portrait of the mark to our Xuanjing Department, after reviewing the files and comparing it, Gong Yu found out They are the remnants of the Xia Kingdom’s royal family.”

"what?!"

Mu Nihuang, Mei Changsu, and Meng Zhi were each shocked.

Prince Jing was so shocked that he stood up suddenly and said: "Xia Guo Yudang has been imprisoned in Youyeting, located in Yangpingfang next to the imperial palace. It has been a forbidden area since Xia Guo Yudang was imprisoned. Unless ordered by the father, he will trespass." Anyone who wants to escape will be killed without mercy. The remaining members of the Xia Kingdom are not allowed to come and go freely. Anyone who escapes without permission will be killed. How did Gong Yu escape? And he is still openly performing in the Jiaofang Division in Kyoto? "

Mei Changsu's brain was running rapidly and he said calmly: "Gong Yu definitely doesn't know her identity, which is why she said her parents didn't tell her many things. She was rescued by Zhuo Di Zhuoqing and was brought back to Beijing and placed in the Jiaofang Division. This also shows that no one knows her identity, not even the rest of Xia Guo’s party in Youyeting.”

"Otherwise, after she joined our Jiangzuo Alliance, she has had many contacts with her brothers in the past few years. If anyone else comes into contact with her, I will definitely receive the news."

Mu Nihuang nodded: "She was only six or seven years old when she left Kyoto. Eighty-nine years had passed when she returned to the capital and showed her face in Jiaofangsi. The change in appearance and the makeup of a busker made it difficult for those who originally knew her to recognize her. It’s also normal.”

Mei Changsu stood up and said: "How the remaining members of the Xia State escaped from Youye Court is a matter for the imperial court, but I secretly feel that the remaining members of the Xia State in Youye Court may be related to the Chiyan tragedy."

Under the eyes of everyone, Mei Changsu said slowly: "We in the Jiangzuo Alliance are good at snooping for information, but in the past few years, most of the investigations of our brothers in Kyoto have been blank. No matter how hard we cover up the truth, there will always be clues. Come, just like Jing'an Trading Company, but where more questions go, it can only be in places we can't investigate."

The screen goes black and the episode ends.

Xiao Xi moved the mouse to click on the next episode, but the episode panel told her that she had finished watching all the twenty episodes currently available on the Internet.

"That's it!"

Where did the money from selling military rations go?

What’s the new suspense about the Red Flame Army’s inferior weapons and equipment?

Now there is another member of the Xia Kingdom's remaining party hidden deep in the secluded Yeting. Xiao Xi has a vague feeling that this Xia State's remaining party must not be simple.

After the TV series aired last night, new comments were discussed: Xia Guo Yu Dang, Avengers.

Xiao Xi deeply believes that so many military ration cases are, firstly, foreshadowing, and secondly, to show characters with their own characteristics and foreshadowings. Almost all the characters who have appeared now have appeared, and the plot is about to enter a more exciting and exciting climax.

It's a pity that I don't have to watch it anymore.

"Watch the replay tomorrow, there will be three more episodes broadcast tonight." She said, silently counting the 45 episodes as they were getting closer and closer, and she didn't know what the finale would be.

She found that the ending of most dramas on the market could be guessed, but not even the ending of "Legend of Red Flame" could be guessed at all.

With a strong desire to watch the follow-up episodes, she read the reviews online before going to bed.

One comment is very interesting: [@chuxuan, is Lin Shu dead?Tell me the answer. Please, I can't sleep. 】

Xiaoxi laughed. @chuxuan sent such a message in the middle of the night. It was strange that Chuxuan could reply.

No, Chu Xuan is still filming in Los Angeles, it should still be afternoon there.

Unexpectedly, for the first time, a comment came with a reply: [Lin Shu is not dead, filming with Princess Nihuang in Los Angeles, Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei are pictured together.jgp. 】

"Wow, I'm really back!" Xiao Xi became interested, suddenly lost her sleepiness, and started chatting with a group of night owls. (End of chapter)
