Nirvana in Fire Episode 50 Recap
> Nirvana in Fire Recap
Mei Changsu couldn't hold on after leaving the palace and was helped onto a carriage by Zhen Ping, who was waiting outside the palace. Jingyan came to Consort Jing's palace and asked her, Meng Zhi, Princess Nihuang, and others if they had known Mei Changsu's true identity all along. Consort Jing tacitly agreed. Jingyan was deeply saddened and blamed himself for not recognizing him.
Consort Jing comforted him, saying that Xiaoshu not telling him the truth was because her expectations of him were different from others'. Then she warned Jingyan that there were still many unfinished matters, and he could not stop. He had to fulfill Xiaoshu's wish, which was also everyone's wish. She repeatedly urged Jingyan to face challenges calmly and not make mistakes, because Xiaoshu's body could no longer withstand failure. The Emperor of Liang was still troubled by Xia Jiang's words.
He asked Gao Zhan if Mei Changsu was Lin Shu. Gao Zhan denied it, saying that if Mei Changsu was Lin Shu, given the Crown Prince's nature, he would never have allowed him to enter the deadly Xuanjing Department. The Emperor of Liang nodded in agreement upon hearing this.
Gao Zhan comforted the Emperor of Liang, saying that the Crown Prince was magnanimous and would not become estranged from him because of this, but the Emperor of Liang knew that the old Chiyan case had always been a knot between father and son. As soon as Mei Changsu returned to his residence, he fainted. His condition was very serious. Lin Chen decided to take a risky approach and use an extraordinary detoxification method to save him.
As he wasn't completely sure, he deliberately teased Fei Liu to hide his nervousness. Cai Quan received a secret report and was shocked to hear that Xia Dong had been swapped. He went to the prison overnight and exposed Gong Yu. After receiving the news, Meng Zhi and Xia Dong prepared to break into the prison at night to rescue Gong Yu. Lin Chen, who was nearby, saw how reckless they were and kept shaking his head.
To avoid disturbing the recuperating Mei Changsu, he gave them a good idea to deal with Minister Cai without bloodshed, saving Gong Yu and making Cai Quan stop the investigation. Meng Zhi was very happy, but Lin Chen poured cold water on her, telling her to check her personal guard's new wife, as she was the one who leaked the information. After Mei Changsu woke up, he asked Lin Chen to start investigating the people left behind by Princess Xuanji.
He remembered Prince Yu's dying words and thought about the motives of Qin Banruo and Xia Jiang in swearing to help him until death, suspecting that Prince Yu was connected to the Hua tribe. Mei Changsu asked Gong Yu, who was also of the Hua tribe, and learned that Princess Linglong of the Hua tribe once had a child, and after Princess Linglong died in battle, the child's whereabouts were unknown.
It was Marquis Yan's birthday, and guests filled the entrance. A woman named Han came with her son Han Zhuo to offer congratulations, claiming to be an old friend of Marquis Yan. Marquis Yan met with them alone. It turned out that Ms. Han had a past relationship with Xia Jiang, and Han Zhuo was Xia Jiang's son.
This time Ms. Han came to the capital wanting to settle things with Xia Jiang and also let her son collect his body after death. Ms. Han handed the list of Xia Jiang's remaining followers that she held to Marquis Yan. Based on the information gathered from various sources, Jingyan carried out a major purge inside and outside the palace. Mei Changsu came to the prison and told Xia Jiang everything that had happened. The deserving Xia Jiang had lost all his cards and finally showed despair, and what awaited him were even greater waves.
