Oh! My Emperor Season 2 Episode 11 Recap
> Oh! My Emperor Season 2 Recap
Beitang Moran issued a decree to prioritize finding the source of the widespread crazies disease, dispatching various forces to aid in the search while he himself ventured into the infected areas. General Chu and Master Bai investigated the infected zones, finding that the food was safe and livestock unaffected, indicating the disease only impacted humans.
At the same time, Chongchong utilized secret tunnels to gather information, Su Xunxian deployed birds, insects, and mythical creatures to uncover the disaster's cause, and Shang Yu covertly scoured the city. Beitang Moran, the Great Prince, with his power of Constellation Initiation and his own beauty, accurately predicted the next outbreak area, allowing troops to swiftly contain it, thus stabilizing the state temporarily.
Based on various clues, including the first infected person rarely leaving home and recent infections of Zhang Tianzheng and Mei Daren while at home, Luo Feifei suspected the water supply. Her theory gained traction when she recalled Zhang Tianzheng's habit of boiling eggs with water from the well guarded by Tianxingbao Pavilion, and Mei Daren's subsequent infection just days after winning a month's supply of these well-water eggs from a bet with Zhang Tianzheng.
Convinced the water was the culprit, Luo Feifei offered to test it herself. However, Beitang Moran adamantly refused, asserting his own greater power and the potential for Luo Feifei's unique abilities to react with the poison, thereby confusing the test results. He insisted on undertaking the dangerous task himself, believing his body could slowly expel the poison even if infected. As Beitang Moran prepared to bathe in the potentially contaminated well water, Xie Yanran arrived.
She directly questioned if his willingness to risk infection stemmed from his concern for Luo Feifei, despite knowing Feifei harbored feelings for another. Beitang Moran confirmed her observation. Xie Yanran, expressing her understanding and admiration for his choice, then claimed Luo Feifei had found a new treatment method for the crazies disease, urging him to go and check. Once Beitang Moran had departed, Xie Yanran's tears fell as she stepped into the bath, taking his place.
Beitang Moran rushed to Luo Feifei, only to find she had made no new discoveries. Realizing Xie Yanran's true intent, he hurried back to the bathing chamber. He quickly opened and then closed the curtain, seeing Xie Yanran already in the tub. Luo Feifei followed him in, but Xie Yanran persuaded them both to leave, emphasizing that Luo Feifei had taught her to be proactive in love.
Through the curtain, a tearful Xie Yanran reflected on how she used to secretly watch him bathe, and now, by testing the poison for him, they were even. She confessed her unrequited love for Beitang Moran, which she had harbored for ten years, fearing that if she did not speak now, she might never get the chance. Her voice then trailed off, prompting Beitang Moran to call out to her.
Receiving no response, he quickly entered the chamber and found Xie Yanran unconscious in the bath. Meanwhile, as it approached the Taurus o'clock, Luo Feifei suddenly remembered Beitang Yi and rushed to his quarters, where Bilian was still present. Bilian had untied the ropes and buttons securing Beitang Yi and was attempting to undress him, despite his resistance.
As she tried to force him to rest, Beitang Yi suffered a violent relapse of the crazies disease, prompting Bilian to cry for help. Tang Wang burst in and quickly knocked Beitang Yi unconscious. Enraged, Luo Feifei slapped Bilian twice, reprimanding her for exacerbating Beitang Yi's condition and accelerating the poison's spread by untying him. Tang Wang ordered Bilian's execution, but Bilian invoked the Grand Empress Dowager's name as protection.
Luo Feifei warned Bilian that any harm to Beitang Yi would result in her certain death. Later, Xie Yanran also succumbed to the disease, but Chongchong managed to stabilize her condition. Chongchong then revealed her major discovery: the source of the virus was the bath water. The poison, colorless and tasteless due to dilution, entered the body through the skin and reacted with the blood, causing mutation after a period of accumulation.
Chongchong recalled a specific herbal remedy her grandfather used to cure those infected through skin exposure without internal organ damage: 150 grams of Sweet Dream fruit, 25 grams of Lucky grass, and 5 grams of citrus powder, to be made into a pill. This medicine, she explained, would cause patients to sweat, purge, or vomit, thereby expelling the toxins.
However, she noted that this specific remedy would not work for Beitang Yi, whose condition required a different approach, only curable by their clansmen. Beitang Moran carefully administered the antidote to Xie Yanran, who soon regained consciousness. Just then, an emergency at the Constellation Palace demanded his immediate attention, and he departed. Luo Feifei once again secured Beitang Yi with ropes, her eyes filled with tears as she watched him.
In a sudden fit of rage, Beitang Yi bit Luo Feifei's shoulder, drawing blood. Despite the injury, Luo Feifei held onto him tightly. Xie Yanran, still weakened from her illness, arrived and observed a surprising phenomenon: Beitang Yi's poison appeared to be gradually receding. The reason for this unexpected recovery was Luo Feifei's blood.
