> Resumos de Let's Shake It! Season 1
Heartbroken to see Duo Miaomiao with someone else, the Prince watched as Duo Miaomiao deepened a kiss with Xiao Ruyi, feigning mutual love and claiming it was a necessary act to protect Datang's safety. Xiao Ruyi, delighted by the situation, embraced it. Duo Miaomiao even declared he would rather die if the Prince insisted on breaking them apart. The Prince couldn't fathom how his Princess could betray him for an "Earth monkey."
Tang Qingfeng intervened, explaining that anything was possible in love and sharing his own story of waiting for his alien lover, Abe, to remember him. Tang Qingfeng stated that he himself once doubted eternal love until Abe appeared, and her departure made him realize that feelings transcend boundaries. He believed that everything that happened before wouldn't be forgotten, just temporarily unremembered, and he would wait until she recalled it all.
Moved by these heartfelt declarations, the Prince decided to let go of Duo Miaomiao. Before leaving Earth, he left Duo Miaomiao a space shuttle, with a program set for a direct flight from Earth to Maoqiu Star, inviting Duo Miaomiao to visit anytime and assuring him his doors were always open.
After the Prince's departure, Abe, in a moment of relief, reflected on how close she was to being forced into marriage as a "Princess" and potentially having "babies" with a Maoqiu alien. She acknowledged the successful resolution of the interstellar dispute, which prevented her and Duo Miaomiao from being jailed by their Governor. Their celebration was cut short when Xiao Ruyi confronted Abe, accusing her of being her father's killer.
Abe, in turn, angrily confronted Duo Miaomiao for what she perceived as a betrayal, but Duo Miaomiao quickly defended Abe, asserting her innocence. Abe then made it clear to Xiao Ruyi that she was not a demoness and that Duo Miaomiao was "her man," attempting to leave. Xiao Ruyi, however, demanded proof, stating that if the true killer was someone else, they should provide evidence.
Duo Miaomiao then explicitly stated that he was at the scene and witnessed Li Yi killing Xiao Ruyi's father, along with an old woman and a grandson. Abe confirmed Duo Miaomiao's account, saying she too wished it wasn't true, but Li Yi was indeed the killer. Tang Qingfeng then presented Li Yi's personal sachet, found at the crime scene, as proof of Li Yi's presence. He argued that if Li Yi wasn't involved, he wouldn't have kept silent.
Tang Qingfeng promised Xiao Ruyi that he would find justice for her father, causing Xiao Ruyi to temporarily set aside her revenge. Unbeknownst to them, Xiao Zhihe overheard their entire conversation and secretly vowed to seek revenge on Li Yi. Later, Tang Qingfeng confronted Abe, pulling her away and acknowledging her true identity. He expressed his regret for having harmed her in the past and asked what he could do to earn her forgiveness.
Abe, still resentful, declared she would never forgive him, but also felt her heart race due to his words, prompting her to find an excuse to escape his grasp. Meanwhile, Xiao Ruyi tended to Duo Miaomiao's injuries, asking if he was still angry and if his wounds still hurt, signaling their growing closeness.
In a private conversation, Taifu urged Li Yi to quickly secure Abe's place in the harem, even suggesting that if Tang Qingyun posed a problem, he "had his ways" of dealing with her. Li Yi, however, expressed his reluctance to harm any more innocent people. The Taifu then shockingly revealed that he had ordered the assassination of Tang Qingye in the past, eliminating anyone who stood in Li Yi's path to the throne.
This confession deeply angered and distressed Li Yi, who then knelt before his mother's memorial tablet, lamenting the innocent lives lost because of his ambition, including Tang Qingye, his beloved. He confessed his ignorance of Taifu's actions and questioned the worth of the throne if he couldn't protect his loved ones. He also admitted that Xiao Ge's death was unintentional but necessary because Xiao Ge knew too much.
At that moment, Xiao Zhihe burst into the room, having used a stolen pass to enter. Li Yi threatened him with a death sentence for trespassing. Xiao Zhihe defiantly countered by exposing Li Yi's secret memorial service, which was a grave offense, and demanded to know who killed his father. As the tension escalated, Li Yi drew a hidden weapon to silence Xiao Zhihe. Xiao Ruyi and Li Fu arrived just in time to intervene.
Li Fu smoothly diffused the situation, suggesting that since both parties had committed offenses, it was best to let the matter drop to avoid further complications with the Emperor. He then claimed that Xiao Ruyi and Xiao Zhihe were summoned to discuss the Emperor's birthday banquet. Li Yi, cornered, agreed to dismiss the incident and let them go. Outside, Xiao Ruyi thanked Li Fu for his intervention. Li Fu then inquired about Xiao Zhihe's reason for entering the palace.
Xiao Zhihe angrily questioned his sister for preventing him from getting answers about their father's death. Fearing her brother would cause more trouble, Xiao Ruyi hit and scolded him, ordering him to stay put. As Xiao Zhihe left in a huff, Li Fu pondered whether Xiao Ge's death held a deeper secret. Tang Qingyun, visiting Abe's chambers, stumbled upon a name list in Abe's possession, with Tang Qingfeng's name conspicuously crossed out in red.
Misinterpreting this as a threat to her brother, Tang Qingyun presented the list to the Empress. The Empress, already suspicious of Nanzhao and its "unfortunate" connections, immediately deemed it witchcraft intended to disrupt the court. She summoned Abe and ordered her torture to extract a confession. Despite Abe's protests that it was merely a list reflecting her annoyance with Tang Qingfeng for a past humiliation, the Empress ordered more severe punishment.
Witnessing Abe's suffering, Tang Qingyun, feeling guilty, knelt and pleaded for mercy. However, Abe, realizing Tang Qingyun had caused this predicament, angrily blamed her. The Empress then further fueled Tang Qingyun's guilt by warning her that Abe would not be grateful but would instead seek revenge, advising her to eliminate Abe entirely to avoid future trouble. This made Tang Qingyun feel deeply regretful.
Just as Abe was about to suffer further, Li Yi arrived and forcefully intervened, preventing the Empress from continuing her private torture. He challenged the Empress's authority to use such methods in the palace and threatened to report her to the Emperor. Li Yi then escorted Abe out, much to Tang Qingyun's jealousy. Abe, however, was annoyed by Li Yi's persistence, as he continued to follow her despite her desire to return alone.
Seeking refuge and a solution, Abe went to the Lecture Hall and asked Tang Qingfeng to deal with Li Yi. Tang Qingfeng calmly dismissed Li Yi, who then left. Tang Qingfeng then presented Abe with a specially prepared dish of braised pork, which he had learned to cook just for her. Abe was touched, praising it as the best braised pork she had ever tasted. She then asked Tang Qingfeng if he would ever doubt her again.
He swore an oath, promising to believe every word she said and every action she took. Reassured, Abe finally forgave him. Abe then confided in Tang Qingfeng, revealing that his adoptive father, Tang Jizhong, was not his real father; his true father was the Emperor. She explained that Li Yi had murdered Xiao Ge because Xiao Ge discovered this secret and Li Yi feared Tang Qingfeng would contend for the Crown Prince position.
Tang Qingfeng confirmed that he was already aware of his true parentage and had no desire for the throne, preferring to focus on stabilizing the current court. He advised caution, noting Li Yi's power and the widespread implications of exposing the truth without concrete evidence, and also that Abe's identity could not be exposed. Meanwhile, Yao Luoguli, the National Master, informed Li Fu that the magnificent Tongtian Tower, symbolizing Datang's prosperity, would be completed within three days.
He then suggested using the upcoming Imperial birthday as an opportunity to undermine Li Yi's position. The National Master proposed leveraging Xiao Zhihe's intense hatred for Li Yi as a "knife to kill with," a plan Li Fu readily accepted. However, unbeknownst to them, Xiao Ruyi had already bound Xiao Zhihe to prevent him from taking any rash actions that might jeopardize their family.
News then spread that the Emperor had decreed a marriage selection ceremony for Abe, where she would choose a husband from among the Princes. Tang Qingfeng, upon hearing this, rushed to the palace to speak with the Emperor. Abe was also distressed by the news, having initially misunderstood the term "marriage selection" as merely finding a bodyguard. Duo Miaomiao quickly clarified that it meant finding a spouse, and Tang Qingfeng was not among the eligible Princes.
Desperate, Abe went to Tang Qingfeng for help. Tang Qingfeng, having already tried to persuade the Emperor by winning a game of mahjong and requesting to join the selection (which the Emperor denied, citing the imperial decree and rejecting his distant family relation as a valid reason), told Abe that he had done all he could. He suggested that perhaps it was fate and wished her well in finding a suitable husband. Frustrated by his seemingly indifferent attitude, Abe angrily declared that if he wouldn't act, she would indeed find someone else to marry.
