Nirvana in Fire Episode 9 Recap
> Nirvana in Fire Recap
Mei Changsu moved to a new residence, and Dr. Yan and Aunt Ji came to the capital to look after Mei Changsu. Heavy goose-feather snow fell one after another, and Fei Liu played happily, but the frail Mei Changsu was clearly unwell and was driven indoors by Dr. Yan. In the Jingzhao Prefecture, a yamen runner reported that a strange beast had appeared on Xiaogu Mountain, causing unease among the people.
Gao Sheng indeed transferred the "Lan Garden Body Hiding Case" to the Ministry of Justice. Minister of Justice Qi Min is from Prince Yu's faction. Prince Yu ordered him to make it an ironclad case and get rid of Lou Zhijing. Mei Changsu planned to break the claws of the Crown Prince and Prince Yu one by one; Lou Zhijing and the Duke of Qingguo were already fish in a barrel.
He said to Meng Zhi: Prince Yu may not give up and will try to rescue the Duke of Qingguo. As they were talking, Prince Yu arrived. Prince Yu asked Mei Changsu for a plan to save the Duke of Qingguo's life. To get rid of the Duke of Qingguo, Mei Changsu guided Prince Yu patiently.
He said that the land encroachment case was being thoroughly investigated by the Emperor of Liang because he intended to completely stop the trend of land annexation with this one action, and protecting the Duke of Qingguo would mean losing the Emperor's favor. To continue confusing Prince Yu, he pretended to stand on Prince Yu's side and said that sacrificing the Duke of Qingguo would win over Prince Jing, who could then contend with Xie Yu in the military.
His careful analysis hooked Prince Yu. Prince Yu gave up on the Duke of Qingguo and instructed the Ministry of Justice to cooperate with Prince Jing. Xie Yu attempted to assassinate Mei Changsu again, but due to the strict security at the Su residence, he failed miserably. Mei Changsu took Fei Liu to Prince Jing's manor. He used Fei Liu to deliver the gold-threaded soft armor to Tingsheng to protect him.
Mei Changsu guided Prince Jing on how to handle the Duke of Qingguo's land encroachment case, which gained Prince Yu's approval. While chatting, Mei Changsu wanted to touch the vermilion iron bow placed by the wall, which was an old item he had used, but he was sharply stopped by Prince Jing. He explained apologetically that it was a relic of a friend, and this friend disliked strangers touching his things the most during his lifetime.
Mei Changsu was deeply moved in his heart. The Crown Prince and Prince Yu competed to recommend candidates for Minister of Revenue to expand their influence, which annoyed the Emperor of Liang.
