Yi Siming, Heir to the Duke of Chen, had been first awarded the position of fourth-rank Colonel of the Golden Crow Guard, then had worked hard to be promoted to High General of the Left division. He was wellborn of a noble family, served the imperial frontlines, was regarded by the Son of Heaven as a core component, and had everything going smoothly for him, with endless prospects for the future.

Had he never plotted to suppress the Flying Dragon Guard like he so badly wanted, nor met Priest Chunyang, his life would have been a stretch of smooth road. As long as he had adhered rigidly to his duties and didn’t commit a huge, heinous crime, he could have completed his life sailing smooth and worry-free.

    • Also, it is quite ironic given how Fu Shen has always derided YX for being part of the flying dragon guards that is known for forging evidence.

  4. The irony of how the Priest’s act was caught, and the Emperor was saved by Fu Shen himself, and in the end he couldn’t even avenge his master… It pains me that he was tortured ruthlessly by Fu Shen’s own husband, and had to be killed, too, by Fu Shen…Hats off to that soldier!🙏 And Fu Shen darling, it’s not your fault.

  5. That was really devastating. He lived throughout it all to exact revenge for those fallen comrades, the injustice he felt all these years. He must’ve felt it’s his duty to live and die for the Northern Yan. And to die in the hands of Fu Shen is his highest honor.

  12. I feel like crying for loyalty… Not forgetting past debts I can totally understand such painful feelings. A country that let’s his most loyal subjects to unfairly perish is so sad.
    I feel that Fu Shen is in a lot of pain now, even more than in the beginning.
    Thank you for your work ❤️
