"Ashes of Love"
EPISODE 16
This is the engagement letter
that Father and Water Immortal wrote four thousand years ago.
Nice handwriting!
The two characters Taiwei look vigorous and powerful,
and the characters Luolin look graceful and unique,
and the characters Runyu,
not only look natural and smooth, but also reveal great willpower.
Fish Fairy,
your handwriting is so nice.
Sure enough, there was no limit to your success in the future.
Just so-so.
Jinmi, now I have to bother you to fill in your name here.
But...
But my handwriting is not so good.
It's okay.
Okay then.
JINMI
The characters are not well written, staining your nice handwriting.
Please don't mind.
Jinmi, you are too modest.
Your style of calligraphy looks familiar.
It seems that you have been guided by some famous calligrapher.
Famous calligrapher?
It's all because Phoenix forced me to write so much.
I followed him and practiced for a hundred years.
Oh, I see.
Xufeng is the best at Feibai style,
which is full of spirit, elegant and eye-catching.
It's acceptable to write a single character in this style,
but if every character is written with this style,
it will look frivolous and disorganized.
There is so much time ahead.
Jinmi, I will teach you running-cursive script and Wei tablet script. Okay?
More handwriting practice?
Can I say no?
I have written with this style for a long time.
Moreover, I have written this way since first holding a brush.
I've gotten used to it.
-You are released. -Okay.
Good boy.
Look, what's this?
Eat it, eat it. Come on.
Okay. I'll put it on the ground. Serve yourself.
Eat it.
Be good.
Come. Come.
Eat it.
So well-behaved.
You have learned to bully the weak
and fear the strong, although you are so young.
You'll have a promising future.
I have no precious things to give you.
I only have this rare beast.
If you like it,
I will let it go with you from now on.
In some time, when it becomes stronger,
then you can ride it.
Please don't disdain it.
How is it possible that I disdain it?
Riding a deer can save more effort than flying, right? Good boy.
Then it's all on you.
I will try my best. I will try my best not to become fat. Okay?
Alright, alright. Go and play.
Be good. Go. Go.
Jinmi.
I'm poor, only having the company of the cold night,
without an honorable position, or many relatives and friends.
All I have, are just several pets and a humble room.
If you are to marry me in the future,
you'll suffer a little.
Jinmi, do you mind?
I heard that every girl has to get married.
It doesn't matter who with.
Moreover, he is powerful and strong.
I will benefit a lot when doing spirit training together.
I don't mind at all.
I even think it's quite cost-effective.
Then when are we going to do spirit training?
Not so fast.
From today,
I will call you Mi. Okay?
Of course.
This flower is really bad-tempered.
It's been so many days.
It's still half-covered.
I don't know when it will bloom completely.
Jinmi, do you know
there is a sad and beautiful story about canna flower?
Really? What story?
It's said that
the canna flower fell in love with Supreme Immortal Weitian,
who watered and weeded it every day.
It blooms every day and every season.
However,
it doesn't know
that the Supreme Immortal it admired, devoted himself to monasticism,
and had already cut off all worldly desires.
The canna flower waited for the Supreme Immortal for thousands of years,
but the Supreme Immortal never looked at it.
Every midsummer night,
the Supreme Immortal would go down the mountain
to collect the condensed sencha for making tea.
Canna flower would exhaust its power for the year,
to show its most beautiful moment in blossom,
but the canna flower didn't know the truth.
It's not that the Supreme Immortal was heartless,
it's just that the Supreme Immortal had seen time immemorial,
and his body belonged to the whole world,
so he can't fall in love.
It turned out to be such a tragic story.
Then, this flower is a sign of bad luck.
I will give you another later.
How could it be a sign of bad luck?
Thanks to this flower,
you can sit next to me and appreciate it with me.
Be patient and wait for several hours.
I'm going to show the night and the stars.
See you later this evening.
Okay, Fish Fairy.
Who's there? How dare you trespass the Southern Heavenly Gate? Get him.
Get him.
It's me.
Your Highness.
According to Lord Pojun,
someone trespassed at the Southern Heavenly Gate just now.
The intruder seems to be Snake Fairy.
We are urgently working hard to arrest him.
That's good luck. I was going to find him.
Double the guard.
Tonight, I must help Pojun catch Yanyou.
Got it.
And send someone to invite the Night Immortal.
-Yes, your Highness. -Go.
Liaoting.
Your Highness.
Give this box to Jinmi,
and say that I'm sorry.
Say that I have something at hand. and can't meet her tonight.
I will come to her tomorrow.
Your Highness, Jinmi treats you like this,
but we still give her the magic zongzi, and even apologize to her.
I don't think it's worth it.
Nonsense. Go quickly.
"Jia Zi Mansion"
What's wrong?
My incense burner was moved by one point two inches.
Not good.
-Someone has been here today. -Are you sure that it is not the wind?
Anything unusual?
Fortunately,
there are no traces of intrusion.
Rat Fairy, you put me in a miserable situation last time.
You releasing your little rat added a lot of sins to me.
Little Lord, you really should not have stood out that day,
to save Fairy Jimi.
I am afraid that the Heavenly Empress and Fire Immortal
have already doubted both of us.
Actually, the exposure of Jinmi's real identity has helped us achieve our goal.
How can I see my beautiful beauty suffer by the old hen?
You are so protective of her.
Are you in love with her?
Do you know who the fairy is?
I know. She is the daughter of the Water Immortal.
She is engaged to the Night Immortal, and is also close to the Fire Immortal.
According to my past experience,
these two brothers will be jealous of each other for her sooner or later.
-That's good. -You...
Such being the case, why do you provoke her?
Jinmi is my friend. She is very simple.
I really can't bear to get her involved in this grievance.
One more thing.
Master assigned me to send a letter to the Water Immortal.
Recently, people from the Qiwu Palace are closely stalking Luoxiang Mansion.
Fortunately, I stopped you today.
Otherwise, you would have walked into the trap.
The Fire Immortal has been suspicious of the Water Immortal.
He hasn't taken any actions yet.
I don't know what his real plan is.
Same as usual, this letter will still be forwarded by you.
I have tried several times.
The Water Immortal has never opened the letters of Master.
All the previous letters have been sent back.
This morning, the Water Immortal also told me
that he recently found his daughter
and he only wanted to enjoy the happiness of family,
and unwilling to participate in our plan.
I think...
we don't have to fight for him anymore.
He wants to live a peaceful life,
but it depends on whether or not the Heavenly Empress agrees.
-Then what about this letter? -That's it.
The situation is changing rapidly.
Jinmi is going to marry the Night Immortal,
and this is intolerable for the Heavenly Empress.
At that time, Water Immortal won't be able to follow his previous intentions.
I'll keep this letter, just in case, and think about the plan later.
Oh no!
What happened?
The letters are gone.
It seems that my identity has been exposed.
We should not stay here any longer.
Don't go to Water Immortal, either.
Hurry!
I can't leave you alone in danger. We must leave together.
Which rat that can burrow, has nowhere to keep himself safe?
Don't worry.
Fairy Jinmi.
This is the Page Boy of the Fire Immortal, Jinmi.
That's the spirit.
Fortunately, she is engaged to the Night Immortal.
Otherwise, she must bring disaster to many other people.
I heard an interesting story yesterday.
The Fire Immortal gave this Phoenix hairpin to Jinmi.
Really?
The Phoenix hairpin is a sacred object of the Phoenix family and a body protector.
It can only be given to the closest person.
On the wedding day of Heavenly Empress, she gave her Phoenix hairpin
as a token to the Heavenly Emperor.
The Fire Immortal acted like this.
Evildoer... evildoer.
I didn't kill anyone, and I didn't set a fire. How can I be an evildoer?
Fairy Jinmi, it's just a slip of the tongue.
Please forgive me, Fairy Jinmi.
Go quickly.
What happened?
Well, well, I got it.
Over there. Let's go.
Slow down.
Slow down, good boy.
Go. Let's go and see the flowers together.
Look, you are so happy. Okay.
Slow down.
Something's wrong.
Is it in the period from 7 p.m. to 9 p.m.?
Tomorrow, in the period from 7 p.m. to 9 p.m.
beside Liuzi Pond,
wait for me.
Tomorrow, the period from 7 p.m. to 9 p.m.
That's right now.
Oh no.
Phoenix must be so angry, he's going to kill me.
Good boy. Play by yourself. I am leaving now.
Good boy. Alright.
That flower has not bloomed yet, has it?
I will appreciate the flower with you when it starts to bloom. Okay?
You! Don't bite me.
Don't pull me. Be good.
Let me go.
Aren't you the fairy maid Liaoting from Qiwu Palace?
You are...
You are the fairy maid of the Night Immortal.
Yes, I am. Why are you here?
The Fire Immortal gave me something to bring to Jinmi.
I went to Luoxiang Mansion just now,
but the fairy maid there said that she is here today. So I'm here now.
This must trouble you a lot.
Why not let me help you bring this to Fairy Jinmi?
Then you can go back to rest earlier. What do you think?
Fairy. Didn't you hear me clearly?
The Fire Immortal told me to give this to Jinmi in person.
What?
You guys of Xuanji Palace want to skimp?
I suggested this as good will.
You judge me from a villain's perspective.
Fairy Jinmi and our Night Immortal are already engaged.
Technically, she belongs to our Xuanji Palace,
so she has no reason you see you.
First come, first served.
Jinmi knew the Fire Immortal first.
Why does the Night Immortal take away the Fire Immortal's lover by force?
First come, first served.
You are so correct.
Fairy Jinmi and the Night Immortal have been engaged four thousand years ago.
To talk about taking away one's lover by force,
it's the Fire Immortal who doesn't follow the rules.
Alright. I don't want to see her anyway.
The Fire Immortal asked me to say his apology to Fairy Jinmi.
Tell her the Fire Immortal can't meet her according to their appointment.
He will see her the next day.
I have brought the words and the things here.
Don't mess with anything.
If the Fire Immortal questions me,
-I must come to you. -Got it.
XUANJI PALACE
Let me go.
Good boy, good boy.
Let me go, good boy, okay?
Stop biting me.
Don't pull me. Be good.
Be good. I really have something.
I will be punished to death if I'm late.
-Good boy. -Fairy Jinmi.
You came at the right time. Ask him not to pull me.
I've got something to do now.
-Are you going to meet the Fire Immortal? -Yes.
He seems to have something to tell me.
-This is from the people at Qiwu Palace. -For me?
Spiritual Zongzi.
Someone from the Qiwu Palace said,
his Highness can't keep the appointment because of some emergency.
That moody bird...
Then when will Fish Fairy come back?
He was asked to discuss something with the Fire Immortal on his way back.
I am afraid that there will be some delay.
It seems that this Phoenix cares about me a lot.
-I have a few words to say. -Go ahead.
Since you and his Highness are engaged,
you should not relate with the people from Qiwu Palace.
What do you think?
This will bring trouble to you, his Highness, and the Fire Immortal.
Marriage is destined.
As for those messy past events, you should leave them behind.
Marriage, messy past events?
What do you mean?
This bird and the beast,
made an appointment with me together,
and cancelled the appointment together.
Why are they so well coordinated?
What are they doing now?
I got it. They can't reach such a state
without doing spiritual training.
These two stingy people!
They do such a thing without letting me join in.
Forget it. I'm going to eat the zongzi myself.
I have blocked the Southern Heavenly Gate,
the Northern Heavenly Gatem and other ways out,
working together to encircle him.
When I catch him, I will let our people encircle him.
I know he'll try his best.
After you guys make him appear,
I will handle it.
I fought with the man in black.
As long as Yanyou dares to show 30% of his spiritual power,
I will be able to make a clear inspection.
I have a hunch, that this snake is very likely to think
that the engagement of me and Jinmi will make us estranged.
I didn't expect that you'd still do this for my sake.
What are you talking about, Night Immortal?
These two things are not related. This is about your reputation.
The man in black's target is me.
So, I must return your innocence. It's my responsibility.
Your Highness. The Snake Fairy ran in the direction of Xuanji Palace.
Oh no. Jinmi is still in my palace.
Appreciate flowers and eat spiritual zongzi.
So happy!
Spiritual Zongzi with five hundred years' spiritual power.
It seems that Phoenix is becoming more and more generous.
Seeing the moving shadow of the flowers,
I thought a beautiful girl is coming.
Mr. Puchi. Come out.
I guessed it was you.
Beauty, is it that you are thinking of me at the moment?
A person among my friends, who is shameless
and can recite such kind of poem is only you, no one else.
Canna flower is also called the beauty in the moon.
Tonight, a beauty in the moon appreciates another beauty in the moon.
Good things come in pairs.
The Fire Immortal and the Night Immortal, are they insane?
Instead of appreciating such a beauty in the moon,
they would like to arrest and kill an innocent snake.
Are they arresting you?
Are they going to use you to make snake soup, or medicated wine?
You are crueler than them.
To put it short, I was chased by Pojun,
and had no choice but to escape here.
So, I wanted to say goodbye to you.
I don't know when we can meet each other again, after this parting.
Are you serious?
Are they really chasing you?
What can I do to help you?
Well, what about this? You pretend to kidnap me.
Take a knife against my neck. Do you have a knife?
I am going to find you a knife. Wait a minute.
Come back. Come back.
Did you read many legendary books?
I don't want to be killed, with my bones ground
and scattered to dust by the Fire Immortal.
But you said you are wanted by them. What can I do?
You are not that incurable.
If you had such awareness earlier, you wouldn't have ended up like this.
Is there a misunderstanding between you two?
I mean, if there is some misunderstanding,
you can sit down and have a chat.
When the misunderstanding is cleared up, everything will be fine.
Come here.
No.
Let him go first.
Go. I'm not so weak as to let you, a little grape, protect me.
Get him.
No... What crimes have you committed, Mr. Puchi?
Why are so many people besieging him?
I'll explain it to you later.
Mr.Puchi.
Fish Fairy. You came at the right time.
Are you here to stop the fight, or participate in the fight?
If you want to fight, then it's not necessary.
I guess that Phoenix alone is able to kill him.
Fish Fairy. Please persuade them not to fight.
Get them to stop fighting.
-Persuade them, quickly. -Don't worry.
I need to verify one thing to prove my innocence
Rest assured. We are not going to kill him yet.
Mr. Puchi.
Yanyou.
I see your water-related magic power is not weak.
I don't know how many tricks you can use to protect yourself
when fighting with the master of water-related magic, the Night Immortal.
Our Night Immortal can only practice water-related magic.
If you are not able to win this fight with water-related magic power,
you might as well add some fire-related magic.
Magic fireball. It's him.
Go.
-Rat Fairy. -I want to meet the Heavenly Emperor.
-Your Highness. -Get him.
Yes, your Highness. Go.
I didn't expect that you had a partner.
Let me get changed.
I will explain to the Emperor.
Keep an eye on him, in case he tries to commit suicide.
Yes, your Highness.
Go, quickly.
Since I have aroused Heavenly Empress's attention
at her birthday banquet,
I'm going to catch them when they are off guard
telling Heavenly Emperor the truth.
This is the deployment of the bird tribe.
This information was collected
when I went to play chess with Elder Yinque on the Yimiao Continent.
Give it to the Master for me.
Give it to her yourself.
Take it.
Don't go back.
Don't get involved in today's business.
Don't be impulsive.
-We can make a plan for this. -Go. Hurry.
Then promise me.
At the beginning of March, we will have a discussion again at Dongting Lake.
Okay.
Hurting the Night Immortal and attacking the Fire Immortal with ice
on the day of the Fire Immortal's rebirth in Nirvana.
Did you do this?
I'm guilty.
So today, I come to confess my crimes.
I attempted to kill the Fire Immortal
and injure the Night Immortal.
I confess these crimes frankly.
Do you know what kind of crime it is to hurt the sons of the Heavenly Emperor?
Heavenly Empress is coming.
Heavenly Empress.
Heavenly Empress, You are coming at the right time.
The Fire Immortal and Night Immortal have brought the man in black to justice.
Good.
Continue.
I want to see
who dared to
attempt to murder the son of the legal wife of our Heavenly Emperor.
Any witnesses and physical evidence?
Father,
on the night of the Fire Immortal's rebirth in Nirvana,
I fought with the man in black,
and inadvertently was injured by a magic fireball.
Today, the Rat Fairy dressed in black,
and trespassed in Xuanji Palace at night.
We found the physical evidence on Rat Fairy.
Where did the magic fireball come from?
-It was given by an old friend. -Old friend?
Magic fireball Linghuo is a treasure of the Heaven Realm.
You are a low rank fairy. Who is it, exactly?
What hatred do you have of the Night Immortal and Fire Immortal
that you strike such a vicious blow to them?
No hatred.
It's out of indignation.
-Indignation? -Answer me.
Is the Snake Fairy Yanyou your co-conspirator?
He has always been frivolous.
At the birthday banquet,
he took Fairy Jinmi and left. interrupting my great plan.
How can I allow him in my team?
Great plan?
What great plan do you have?
Who on earth that asked you to murder the Fire Immortal?
And who asked you to make a mess of my birthday banquet?
Was it the Water Immortal? Or the Night Immortal?
Father.
Mother involves her preconceived ideas in her words, which is a bit biased.
Father. Mother is too concerned about me and said this out of anger,
I hope that you can forgive her.
Heavenly Empress,
mind your words.
Heavenly Empress,
please don't try to accuse others who are not on your side.
This crime was done by me alone.
What a courageous Rat Fairy!
Then I want to see if you can afford it.
Present it.
Sure enough, it's Heavenly Empress.
Heavenly Empress, I have searched everywhere.
The Snake Fairy is tricky and his track is hard to find.
I have not found him.
I went to his house to get him, but he was not there.
But, I found the letters between him and other fairies.
Please have a look, Heavenly Empress.
PLEASE COME TO PLAY CHESS AT DONGTING LAKE IN HALF A MONTH
Bring the Rat Fairy to me secretly and quickly.
Yes.
These are the letters between the Rat Fairy and other fairies.
Please have a look, your Majesty.
Who is the closest to him?
"Please come to play chess at Dongting Lake in half a month."
Water Immortal.
Just to play chess.
Why is it necessary to go to the Human Realm?
There must be a conspiracy here.
-Call the Water Immortal. -Yes.
What is the conspiracy of the Water Immortal?
What secrets are hidden at Dongting Lake?
I have been a chess friend of the Water Immortal for many years.
We just made an appointment for playing chess at the lake.
It's just for time killing.
A Xuanji Huiwen brocade was found in your house.
What explanation do you have?
It's just a way of making communication.
You have intervened too much.
Look at you.
I'm afraid that by using demon magic, you privately contact the Water Immortal.
Everyone has his or her own taste.
How is it possible
that a private object of the Water Immortal appeared at my Jiazi Mansion?
Is it just a deceitful trick,
or is always kept at Luoxiang Mansion?
Or Xuanji Palace.
DESTROYING ICE
This is the method of making destroying ice.
This is an extremely sinister and forbidden water-related magic.
Someone has been planning for a long time to kill my Feng.
I hope your Majesty will investigate this thoroughly.
We shouldn't kill the wrong person and miss the real criminal.
The Water Immortal is coming.
Rat Fairy?
Heavenly Emperor, Heavenly Empress.
I heard that the man in black,
who attacked the Fire Immortal, has been brought to justice.
Yes, I'm checking on it now.
You might as well listen together.
Since you don't have any hatred
against the Fire Immortal and the Night Immortal,
why did you commit such a crime?
Who suggested this forbidden magic?
Who asked you to do this?
The secret method of the sun-destroying ice and the fireballs,
are really from you, your Majesty.
Your Majesty, you may recall
who was given these two magic treasures.
Just now, I have made it clear.
This crime was done by myself. No one asked me to do this.
It was out of indignation.
The thing to blame is that
the Fire Immortal
is the son of Heavenly Empress.
Greasy rat.
How dare you speak so rudely here.
Today, I will speak freely,
uncovering all the sins you committed.
Tuyao!
Since you become Heavenly Empress,
you have abused your power and influence to make the bird tribe stronger.
