> Oh! My Emperor Season 1 Recap
"""[Recap]""" Following the agreement between Beitang Yi and Beitang Mo Ran that Beitang Yi must collect the Book of Ten Thousand Wishes within three days and win the Star Master Trials, Luo Feifei and Beitang Tang were in a hurry to deliver the final several hundred signatures for the Book of Ten Thousand Wishes. Luo Feifei insisted on personally handing them over, driven by her woman's intuition that something felt amiss.
Their fears were confirmed when Shang Yu, an attendant of Prince Chen, appeared, demanding the Book. Luo Feifei swiftly told Beitang Tang to handle the interception while she made her escape with the documents. Beitang Tang confronted Shang Yu, who declared himself a fierce fighter and refused to let Beitang Tang pass.
Beitang Tang confronted Prince Chen, accusing him of sending subordinates to steal the Book of Ten Thousand Wishes, a blatant defiance of public will and expressing his disdain for such actions. Prince Chen implicitly acknowledged his attempt, lamenting his impatience and the untidy nature of the failed robbery, which had witnesses. He then mused that his youngest nephew, Beitang Tang, had truly grown into a man.
Luo Feifei, after jumping into the moat, found herself disoriented after navigating the palace, feeling as though she was in a maze. Palace guards apprehended her, asking if she was "that crazy singer." Luo Feifei claimed Prince Tang had sent her with a "heart-warming gift" for His Majesty. When she failed to produce a handwritten order or a token, the guards branded her an assassin and attempted to take her away.
Luo Feifei protested, insisting on her sincerity and the importance of her mission. Back in the palace, palace staff was counting the signatures, and Beitang Yi expressed his anxiety about the delay. Prince Chen then arrived, congratulating His Majesty on supposedly completing the Book and requested to see it. Beitang Yi presented the Book, and Prince Chen asked Su Xunxian to count the signatures.
Beitang Tang, fearing exposure, began to loudly sing a nonsensical tune about ducks, effectively disrupting the count. Prince Chen then elaborated on the upcoming constellation master test, a long-standing tradition in Zodiac State. He explained that for the Emperor to regain military leadership and control all constellation masters, he must defeat the four masters of earth, water, wind, and fire in a series of duels. Prince Chen reminded Beitang Yi that His Majesty represented the Earth element.
The palace staff announced that the signatures were short by 521, Luo Feifei burst into the room, exclaiming that the signatures had arrived. In her haste, the bag of signatures tumbled, and one piece flew into an incense burner, instantly turning to ash. Luo Feifei quickly took out a new piece of paper and wrote her own name, completing the count. Su Xunxian objected, claiming her signature shouldn't count.
However, Beitang Yi countered, stating that as a dancer from Prince Chen's mansion, Luo Feifei was a citizen of Zodiac State, and therefore her signature was valid. With his plan foiled, Prince Chen acknowledged Beitang Yi's success and took his leave, prepared for the next test. Later, Beitang Yi learned from Beitang Tang that the rapid collection of signatures was entirely Luo Feifei's doing, crediting her with the ideas and relentless effort.
Beitang Yi dismissed Beitang Tang to rest, stating he wished to speak with Luo Feifei. Beitang Yi found Luo Feifei fast asleep. While observing her, Luo Feifei mumbled the name "Jiangcheng" in her sleep and then embraced Beitang Yi and kissed him. Beitang Yi was taken aback, calling out her name. Beitang Yi teased Luo Feifei about the kiss. Beitang Tang later visited Luo Feifei, and Beitang Yi offered her a reward.
Luo Feifei expressed her wish: to take a shower with Beitang Yi in the pool where they first met. Beitang Yi was visibly stunned by the unconventional request. Despite his surprise, Luo Feifei eagerly went to prepare for the bath, while Beitang Yi lingered, seemingly hesitant. Beitang Tang observed the scene and encouraged his brother.
