The Longest Promise 玉骨遥 Episode 20

Shi Ying was puzzled as to why Zhu Yan would break into his spiritual barrier. He suspected that the palace merchant's remaining strength might not be exhausted. Concubine Qing summoned Qinggang, chose a marriage for her, and ordered Qinggang to go to Chiwangfu to beg Princess Zhuyan. He also said that Qinggang failed to complete the task before, and this time it will be regarded as making up for his mistakes. Zhu Yan is the only daughter of the Red King, who will be the future Red King, so the marriage between the two clans is a good thing for the Qing Clan.

Qinggang meets with Xuelu and tells about Concubine Qing's arrangement for her to marry Zhu Yan. He knows that Xuelu will soon marry Her Highness Shi Yu, but is she really willing to accept this marriage? Although Shiyu likes Xueying, Xuelu thinks that the sons and daughters of prominent families have no right to choose their own relatives. People like them do not ask for warmth, but only for pros and cons. She advised Qing Gang to do the same, because marrying Zhu Yan is a good thing for Qing Gang, and with Zhu Yan's help, Qing Gang may have a chance to win the Qing King position in the future. Although Qinggang didn't care about these things, but seeing Xuelu insisting on power, he had no choice but to leave.

Concubine Qing wants Emperor Beimian to give Shiyu and Xuelu a marriage, but she doesn't want Emperor Beimian to announce both Bai Xueying and Bai Xuelu to her, and let Shiyu choose a princess from the Bai family to be his first wife. Shi Yu naturally chooses his favorite Bai Xueying as his wife, and Emperor Bei Mian has long heard that the two have a similar relationship, so he is naturally willing to help them. Emperor Beimian believed that he could not stay with the one he loves forever in this life, so he hoped that his son could be with the one he loves for a long time. Emperor Beimian asked Shi Yu and others to step back, and he told Concubine Qing that he could order Shi Yu to be the crown prince, but he also warned Concubine Qing not to send anyone to harass the people of Jiuyi.

Knowing that Emperor Beimian personally agreed to marry His Royal Highness Shiyu and Xueying, King Bai hurriedly boiled bird's nest for Xueying to taste. Xuelu didn't blame it because she missed Shiyu, she always believed that Shao Siming was not a thing in the pond, and thought that even if Shiyu was canonized as the son, it would be difficult to achieve great things.

Emperor Beimian set up another son, and Zhu Yan knew that Master didn't care about the identities of these sons. Now that Master doesn't have to worry about getting involved in right and wrong, maybe she can return to Jiuyi Mountain soon. It has been more than a month since Zhu Yan returned home. Although she often sent letters and special products to Jiuyi Mountain, she did not receive a single reply from her master. Now that the son has been decided, Zhu Yan hopes that the master can come to Wuji Fengcheng as soon as possible.

Zhu Yan once again entered the wonderland in her sleep. She wanted to get close to the wishing tree but found that it was blocked by an enchantment. Qing Gang came to Chi Wang's mansion to propose marriage in person. Chi Wang and Chi Wang Concubine were very optimistic about the two of them, and asked Zhu Yan to get along with Qing Gang well. Zhu Yan learned from Qing Gang that Concubine Qing wanted to win over the Chi Clan, so she used Qing Gang's marriage to marry the Chi Clan. Qinggang couldn't refuse the patriarch's order, so he had to ask Zhu Yan to refuse the marriage. Although Zhu Yan doesn't like Bai Xuelu, but because Qinggang likes it, she still persuades him not to give up lightly. Under Zhu Yan's persuasion, Qinggang decided to go back and refuse the marriage.

Shiying saw Zhu Yan again in the spiritual barrier. Zhu Yan thought it was the phantom master who appeared in front of her. She accused the master of not coming to visit her for a long time, and even did things that she dared not do to the master on weekdays. , Facing Zhu Yan's various teases, Shi Ying could only laugh to dispel Zhu Yan's suspicion. Zhu Yan hugged the laughing master. She liked the master in the illusion very much, because in reality the master would not let her hug. Zhu Yan confided to Master Phantom that she was forced into marriage by her mother and concubine, but she had met such an excellent master before, who could compare with him. When Shiying heard Zhu Yan's praise for him, he was so happy that the wishing tree in the spiritual barrier bloomed red flowers.

Chongming told Shi Ying that the Ice Tribe assassin who assassinated Shi Ying that day did not die, and Shi Ying knew that the one who survived was Wu Xian, the head of the ten witches, and Wu Xian would not die. The Ice Clan attacked twice in the Valley of the Kings and Nvluoxi, and there was indeed a plot by the Qing Clan behind it, but I don't know what agreement the two sides reached. Shi Ying wanted to find out what the Ice Clan was planning, and even more wanted to find out who the wise man Wu Xian was talking about.

Shiying brought Chongming to Jiuyi County to inquire about the news. They found the items that Wu Xian dropped when he escaped, and found that there were topographic maps around Jiuyi Mountain and Nvluoxi, as well as the solution to the maze outside the Valley of the Emperors. Chongming guessed that Jiuyi Mountain had an internal response from the Ice Tribe, and Shi Ying believed that the person who gave Wu Xian the topographic map was a wise man. He ordered Chongming to recruit all the birds in the world to search for the whereabouts of the ten witches of the Ice Tribe in the territory, hoping to find the wise man as soon as possible.

Shiying informed Da Si Ming of the found information, and Da Si ordered him to continue to investigate. Da Siming also told Shiying that Concubine Qing had ordered Qinggang to propose to Zhu Yan. If Shiying thought this was inappropriate, he could stop the marriage with the discord between the two fates. Shiying said that he has no intention of being in the world, so he doesn't care about Zhu Yan's marriage. Shiying extracted Da Siming's spiritual power in the Qingxiu barrier, and also learned that Zhu Yan has been able to enter his spiritual barrier because Da Siming used his spiritual power to strengthen the remaining connections of the palace merchants. Ying asks Si Ming what he meant by this move. Da Si Ming did not deny the matter, saying that he just wanted to test Shiying's Dao heart with this matter. Shi Ying said that Zhu Yan and himself are only a master-student relationship, and hoped that Da Si Ming would not speculate on the relationship between the two. If Da Si Ming insists on probing, he will erase all his memories and spiritual power with Zhu Yan, and start from scratch. Seeing that Shiying was determined to erase his memory and spiritual power, Da Si Ming tried to stop him, and promised to withdraw his spiritual power so that Zhu Yan would not let Zhu Yan break into Shiying's spiritual barrier.

Shi Ying knew that Zhu Yan's reluctance to marry was a fantasy that she would return to Jiuyi Mountain one day, but if Zhu Yan was still involved with herself, she and the Chi Palace would be involved in right and wrong. He wrote the marriage letter with his own hands, trying to break Zhu Yan's mind. The servant of the gods came to Chiwang Mansion with congratulatory gifts and letters to congratulate Zhuyan and Qinggang for their marriage. The servant of the gods brought a message from Shiying, hoping that Zhu Yan could enjoy the fireworks in the world and stop thinking about the things in the mountains, which made Zhu Yan very sad.
