Oh! My Emperor Season 2 Episode 20 Recap
> Oh! My Emperor Season 2 Recap
Beitang Yi and Luo Feifei's wedding ceremony commenced with the officiant proclaiming the Empress as kind, extraordinary, and the mother of the whole world, a fortune for all. The couple completed the traditional bows, first to the Constellation Emperor, then to the late emperors, and finally to each other. Meanwhile, Beitang Tang and Xia Bing, also in wedding attire, faced a strained moment.
Beitang Tang gazed at Xia Bing with a bitter smile, realizing his feelings for her had always been one-sided, and that she had never truly given her heart to him. Xia Bing shook her head repeatedly. Beitang Tang was in agony, lamenting, "If we hadn't left that desert, we could have lived happily forever, couldn't we?" He roared, drawing a dagger and lunging at Xia Bing, but couldn't bring himself to strike.
Xia Bing similarly refused to harm him, urging him to leave and stating she didn't want to kill him. Just then, Forgetful, the Empress Dowager, appeared, having overheard everything. She expressed her deep disappointment in Xia Bing and drew a blade. As Xia Bing closed her eyes, Beitang Tang cried out in protest and rushed forward, only for Forgetful to repeatedly stab him. Xia Bing watched in horror, tears streaming down her face, as Beitang Tang urged her to flee.
Suddenly, Xia Bing drew a knife and stabbed Forgetful. Xia Bing had never imagined Beitang Tang would die. She was terrified and heartbroken, yet Beitang Tang, even in betrayal, still thought of her, telling her to hurry and leave, as the people of the Constellation State would not spare her. Tears streaming down her face, Xia Bing repeatedly asked Beitang Tang if they could return to the desert together, handcuffed for life and never separating.
As Beitang Tang succumbed to his wounds, Xia Bing pleaded with him, asking if he agreed to her wishes, to promise they'd be together forever. He encouraged her to move on and live her full life before collapsing. As Xia Bing wept over his body, a black smoke erupted from Forgetful's mind and infiltrated Beitang Tang's body. Beitang Tang suddenly reanimated, seemingly possessed, and, catching Xia Bing off guard, brutally stabbed her multiple times until she fell lifeless.
He then roared, vowing to kill everyone, and stormed into the city. In her final moments, Xia Bing's mind replayed cherished memories of her journey with Beitang Tang, from their first encounter to falling in love. At the wedding reception, the palace hall buzzed with celebratory toasts from officials and citizens alike. An official proposed a toast to Beitang Yi.
Luo Feifei, now the Empress, intervened, playfully suggesting that she should propose the toast to Beitang Yi instead, hinting at his "important matters" later that night and advising everyone to drink slowly. The wine was poisoned, and chaos erupted as all who had drunk it, including the citizens, the officials, Xie Yanran, and Luo Feifei herself, collapsed unconscious. Beitang Yi, in shock, rushed from his throne to Luo Feifei's side.
At that moment, Beitang Moran entered the hall, reporting that the Orion State forces had already breached the city. Beitang Yi quickly scooped up the unconscious Luo Feifei, while Beitang Moran lifted Xie Yanran, apologizing for being too late. Xie Yanran, in her final breaths, asked him not to apologize, but to promise not to make her wait too long when they met again in the next life, before closing her eyes.
Outside, the Orion State army had stormed the city. Beitang Yi and Beitang Moran bravely fought back, repelling waves of attackers. However, Beitang Tang, now under a dark influence, unexpectedly stabbed Beitang Yi from behind. Beitang Yi and Beitang Moran engaged Beitang Tang in a desperate fight. Though they managed to restrain him, they hesitated to deliver a fatal blow to their kin. Under the full moonlight, Beitang Tang briefly regained lucidity, begging them to kill him quickly.
Unable to bring themselves to do so, they hesitated, and Beitang Tang, once again overcome by the dark force, struck them both, causing them to collapse, their fates uncertain. The moonlight intensified, and Beitang Tang, torn between two conflicting consciousnesses, seemed to turn on himself, manifesting a separate entity that attacked and destroyed the part of him controlled by Forgetful. Forgetful, in disbelief, dissipated into black smoke, her voice echoing in the air, vowing to return.
Soon after, Zhang Tianzheng arrived with reinforcements, his heart sinking as he saw the unconscious Beitang Yi and Beitang Moran. Luo Feifei, regaining consciousness, surveyed the Constellation State, now a tragic scene strewn with bodies. Overwhelmed by fear and panic she had never known, she rushed to Beitang Yi, desperately trying to awaken him. She then began to channel her powers, determined to heal Beitang Yi, Beitang Tang, Beitang Moran, and every fallen person around her.
Her pleas for them to awaken and her sorrowful cries for Beitang Yi to get up were heartfelt. Soon, the members of the Snake Family arrived, and under Luo Feifei's command, they began to assist in the widespread healing. As the Constellation State's people gradually revived, the Snake Family members expended all their vital energy, their bodies dissipating into shimmering stars.
