This is a very good drama. As usual when there is good drama doing well - the haters for sure will come knocking. They landed here already. Shame on them!!! Look @ the reviews - so unfair!!!
Okay I’m a little confused on what happened 17 years ago all I know is that there was a fire that killed some…
Someone posted this hours ago - hopefully it will help you:
"wei yan, tutor li, xie linshan (xz dad), and grand tutor, are friends with crown prince chengde. CP chengde wasn't favored by late emperor and was sent to battlefields mainly Jinzhou. wei yan and xie linshan weren't happy with this and wei yan mistakenly said that they should rebel and basically force the late emperor to abdicate and give throne to CP chengde. Turns out, Tutor Li was playing double-sided and reported this incident to the late emperor. Therefore, the late emperor was really mad at CP chengde and his faction and wanted to destroy them. He colluded with Lord Changxin (his cousin), asking him not to send reinforcements against Beijue if it's requested. CP Chengde and Xie Linshan went to the battlefields in Jinzhou 17 years ago against Beijue. (i think late emperor sent 16th prince first and then when he lost, late emperor asked CP Chengde to save him). However they seem to be in the losing side (100k army was starved). No provisions and reinforcements arrived. Wei Yan tried to send reinforcements and provisions but mid way, he received a letter from Shu Consort of the late emperor, which is also the lover of Wei Yan, asking him to come back to the capital immediately. This letter was actually made by the late emperor to lead wei yan back to capital. Turns out the late emperor also knew that wei yan had an affair with his shu consort. Due to this incident, wei yan asked his most trusted subordinate/friend (Wei Qilin) to send the tiger tally to changxin lord to ask for reinforcement. Just for context, back then changxin lord hasn't rebelled. The tiger tally was rejected by changxin lord. He claimed it was fake even though it was real. Therefore, wei qilin was named a traitor. Meanwhile, Wei yan went to save Shu Consort who was being burned alive by late emperor and his guards. He was found by the imperial guards in action and he ultimately failed to saved both Shu and his best friend XL and CP Chengde in the end. That is why he hated tutor Li over the years, because he knew that Grand tutor won't be the culprit. The real culprit who told emperor was tutor Li. Due to lack of reinforcements and provisions, both CP chengde and Xie Linshan died. Meanwhile, Wei Qilin was named a traitor due to not sending reinforcements and provisions. Later on, XZ's mom (XL's wife) discovered the letter made by Emperor to blackmail Wei Yan (using Shu Consort writing style) and he thought Wei Yan was the traitor. To leave Xie Zheng a way out, she made the ultimate sacrifice by doing suicide, hoping Xie Zheng won't be killed by Wei Yan, his own uncle. Wei Yan, really mad at this incident, forced the Evil Late Emperor to abdicate the throne, therefore the current dumb emperor was in charge. Crown Princess knew that once CP Chengde died, she will be next. She made a risky decision when Changxin's wife made a visit to her place, and traded their both sons, diabolically killing the real Sui Yuanhuai and Qi Min survived with Changxin's wife (became Sui Yuanhuai in disguise). Crown Princess and S. Yuanhuai both died in the fierce fire that night. Wei Yan said that fate plays a trick on him, Qi Min left a trail of evidence to force Xie Zheng to investigate the 17 years ago incident that took place in Jinzhou. Wei Yan, with his cold-blooded heart, said that there is no going back, and he killed all his subordinates who was involved, including Wei Qilin who in the end also suicided. However, fate plays a trick on him, when Wei Xuan try to killed XZ army, XZ was saved by female lead and also daughter of Wei Qilin and Meng Lihua, Fan Changyu. Thus the story begins."
Can someone explain the ending, please? Like what happened to XZ’s uncle?
