> Oh! My Emperor Season 2 Recap
Luo Feifei playfully bounced on Beitang Yi's bed, recounting a story about chasing Meimei for a glossy ganoderma, causing the bed to collapse beneath them. Beitang Yi teased her about her weight, blaming her for the bed's demise, but Luo Feifei insisted it was merely slight edema. He then told her to sleep there for the night while he returned to examining memorials. Meanwhile, Chu Shengnan heard the commotion and scream, moving to investigate.
Bai Wuchen, however, stopped her, cryptically stating that Beitang Yi and Luo Feifei were "busy." When Chu Shengnan pressed for a clearer explanation, Bai Wuchen revealed they were "doing their business" and, with some hesitation, suggested they might do the same. Despite her initial embarrassment, Chu Shengnan agreed. Their location then shifted from the garden to their bedchamber. Once alone, Bai Wuchen admitted it was his first time and seemed nervous, but Chu Shengnan took the initiative, ensuring their privacy.
Elsewhere, Beitang Moran and Su Xunxian met by a pavilion, accompanied by guqin music. Su Xunxian acknowledged Beitang Moran's impending departure, wishing him a safe journey and a life free of worries. Beitang Moran expressed his admiration for Su Xunxian, seeing him as someone who, despite appearing simple, possessed profound insight into the world. Su Xunxian humbly disagreed, considering himself merely a fool content to indulge in certain dreams while others sought to awaken from them.
He promised to await Beitang Moran's return so they could share a drink again. In the council hall, Beitang Yi addressed his ministers, discussing two matters. First, he spoke of recent tensions with the Orion state. Though he had considered military action, the Empress Dowager had insisted on a peaceful resolution through a proposed marriage alliance. Secondly, he turned to Luo Feifei, noting that since her succession as the Lord of Ophiuchus, she had not received proper recognition.
As he was not yet married and needed someone to manage the imperial harem, he intended to honor her. Luo Feifei, initially delighted and willing to accept any title, grew visibly upset when Beitang Yi declared her a first-level female official. Beitang Tang called Xia Bing to the courtyard, directly questioning her true purpose for the proposed marriage alliance.
He stated that while she was free to take his life, he would not allow her to harm his brother, Beitang Yi, or Luo Feifei. Xia Bing assured him that if she had wished him dead, he would have perished in the desert long ago. She clarified that her presence was solely to secure peace for her people. Satisfied, Beitang Tang grasped her hand, stating his trust in her.
Luo Feifei later expressed her strong dislike for her new position as a female official, complaining about the endless trivial matters involving other women. She confessed to Beitang Yi that she had hoped he would propose marriage that morning, believing being an Empress meant simply eating and sleeping. Beitang Yi reprimanded her naivety, explaining that an Empress would have far more responsibilities and people to manage.
Soon after, as Luo Feifei was teaching palace maids to make cosmetics, Beitang Tang arrived. Luo Feifei, seizing the opportunity, playfully demanded he help with the strenuous tasks, compelling him to bring others to assist. With their combined efforts and use of their powers, Luo Feifei successfully created perfume. Afterwards, understanding Beitang Tang's anxieties about his upcoming date, she presented him with a box of lipstick, assuring him it would win the girl over.
Beitang Tang eagerly brought the lipstick and an array of other gifts, including fine liquor and royal dishes, to Xia Bing's room. He excitedly presented the lipstick, demonstrating its application. Recalling how Beitang Yi had applied lipstick and kissed Luo Feifei, Beitang Tang awkwardly applied it to his own lips, resulting in a 'sausage mouth,' before leaning in to kiss Xia Bing. She playfully punched him, causing his nose to bleed.
Despite the minor injury, they both found humor in the situation and laughed. Suddenly, Luo Feifei rushed to the Empress Dowager, frantically claiming something was terribly wrong and that Beitang Yi could not be woken. Alarmed, the Empress Dowager hurried to Beitang Yi's bedchamber. Luo Feifei then fabricated an elaborate story, asserting that Beitang Yi was haunted and had been repeatedly calling out a woman's name, "Xiaohong," for the past two days.
The Empress Dowager, startled, recognized "Xiaohong" as her own maiden name, leading her to suspect it might be the spirit of the former Emperor. As the Empress Dowager pondered this, Beitang Yi awoke and looked at Luo Feifei with confusion. Luo Feifei subtly signaled for him to lie back down, but the Empress Dowager noticed. Just as the Empress Dowager was about to demand an explanation, Beitang Yi, adopting the persona of the former Emperor, began speaking. He solemnly instructed her that Beitang Yi's marriage should be prioritized. Convinced that her late husband's spirit had possessed Beitang Yi, the Empress Dowager tearfully embraced him.
