King is Not Easy Episode 12 Recap
> King is Not Easy Recap
Ji Man came to the Longde Hall, wanting to explain to Da Xi, but at this time, the angry Da Xi couldn't listen at all. Ji Man had no choice but to leave. As soon as Ji Man left, the Empress Dowager summoned Da Xi to the Fengluan Hall, wanting to betroth Da Xi to Ji Man. Because of Da Xi's humble birth, although she couldn't be the Queen, it was still possible to be named a Consort.
However, the King's other Consorts disagreed, saying that Da Xi was talentless and incompetent, so how could she be named a Consort. In order to appease the people, the Empress Dowager summoned Ji Man and asked the Consorts to compete with him. If Ji Man lost in any competition, the matter of naming Da Xi a Consort would be dropped. Ji Man won every battle, and everyone dared not say anything more. However, Da Xi stood up and disagreed.
In a fit of anger, the Empress Dowager threatened that if Da Xi didn't agree, she would kill her. Da Xi had no choice but to agree for now. In this way, Da Xi and Ji Man inexplicably got married. After the ceremony, Shen Jia asked the two of them to go to the bridal chamber. Obviously, Da Xi was very unwilling. Shen Jia reminded Da Xi to take care of herself and then withdrew.
After Shen Jia left, Da Xi questioned Ji Man about what he was up to, but Ji Man said that Da Xi was the one up to something. Then, Ji Man gave Da Xi an idea: if she didn't want Shao Yong to go to Wushuang, she could make things difficult for them, such as issuing an order for Shao Yong to marry Da Xi.
If Shao Yong didn't agree, then she would withdraw the decree of betrothing Wushuang to Shao Yong. If he agreed, then Da Xi could be with Shao Yong. Although Da Xi felt that this was very shameless, in order to marry Shao Yong, she still asked Ji Man how to do it.
Ji Man told Da Xi the method and demanded that Da Xi demote him to a palace maid; otherwise, how could she bestow her own Consort to someone else. The next day, Da Xi summoned Shao Yong and demanded that Shao Yong marry her, but Shao Yong refused. Despite the tempting conditions that Da Xi offered, Shao Yong would rather die than marry Da Xi.
Seeing Shao Yong's infatuation with Wushuang, Da Xi wanted to make a bet with Shao Yong to confirm whether Wushuang was equally loyal to Shao Yong. If she was, then she would agree to their marriage; otherwise, Shao Yong would have to marry Da Xi. Shao Yong agreed to make this bet with Da Xi. Da Xi brought Wushuang and four handsome men, and asked Wushuang to choose one. But Wushuang didn't choose any of them.
The King had clearly betrothed her to Shao Yong, so how could he go back on his word? Da Xi threatened Wushuang that she had to choose one, whether she wanted to or not. Shao Yong must be Da Xi's husband; otherwise, Shao Yong would be killed. After hearing this, Wushuang was particularly nervous for Shao Yong and said that as long as Shao Yong lived, she was willing to do anything.
After hearing this, Da Xi agreed to give Shao Yong another chance. For the sake of Shao Yong, Wushuang Zongji reluctantly advised Shao Yong to give up on her and choose Da Xi, even threatening Shao Yong with her life. But no matter what, Shao Yong was unwilling to give up Wushuang. Da Xi and the King were deeply moved by this scene.
Da Xi also saw that Shao Yong didn't have her in his heart at all and couldn't help but shed tears. Ji Man came to find Wushuang, telling Zongji that as long as Zongji was alive, Shao Yong would not give up. At the same time, he handed the prepared poison to Wushuang. For the sake of Shao Yong, Wushuang decided to sacrifice herself, took the poison, and drank it.
Not long after, she vomited blood and fell to the ground. Seeing this, Da Xi immediately ran over and blamed Ji Man for killing Wushuang. Ji Man took the opportunity to exploit the situation, saying that Da Xi had said that she would marry Shao Yong at any cost, but now she was afraid. Da Xi ran back to Longde Hall in a panic, muttering that she didn't intentionally kill Wushuang.
Shao Yong heard Da Xi's words and ran out in grief. Seeing Wushuang's body, he felt heartbroken and told Ji Man to tell the King that even if he died, he would not marry Da Xi. After speaking, he picked up the remaining poison that Wushuang had drunk and drank it all.
