The former Beirong army ambushed Chi Yan in Meiling.
Now Mu Nihuang is leading the soldiers from the North to set up an ambush in Meiling to kill the Beirong troops.
This seems to be a reincarnation. From the perspective of justice and loyalty of the Red Flame Army, the pleasure brought by this revenge made the audience very excited.
However, recalling that the Red Flame Army did not die unjustly in the true sense, but they themselves chose to sacrifice their flesh and blood to build a protective Great Wall stained with blood and tears for the people of Daliang North.
However, no one in the whole world knows all this.
This truth, compared to an unjust death, makes audiences across the country feel heavier and more upset.
The choice of the Red Flame Army is very similar to that of those lovely ancestors who were not afraid of death during the Anti-Japanese War and the Volunteer Army, who would do anything to protect this land for the sake of the stability and peace of the country.
This was deeply touching and sentimental, and to a certain extent, it inspired the patriotic sentiments of audiences across the country.
Perhaps, this is the central idea that "Legend of Red Flame" wants to express with the Red Flame Army as its core story line.
Perhaps, this is the reason why this drama is called "Legend of Red Flame". The Red Flame Army deserves to be regarded as a "legend".
The scene changed to Daliang Kyoto at night.
The usually lively and bustling market is now a silent scene.
No more the hustle and bustle of the 15th and 16th, no more diners and drinking friends staying up all night, no more the charming smiles of the brothel girls and the music played by the famous actors.
Some were just ruined stalls lying on various streets, lanterns that spoke of the coldness in the silence, and occasional whispers of fear coming from the houses.
The tranquility of Kyoto reflects the abnormality of the imperial city.
At the four gates of the imperial city, the city defense army and the imperial guards were fighting, one attacking and the other defending.
The Imperial Guards occupied favorable terrain, and even though there were only 5,000 men, they fought hard for several days and failed to allow King Yu to succeed in his attempt to invade the imperial city.
In the imperial palace, Emperor Liang was sitting on the dragon throne, his face terrifyingly gloomy.
The civil and military officials lined up on both sides of His Highness seemingly with restraint and fear, but in fact a large number of officials were not panicked by King Yu's rebellion.
Over the years, many officials have sided with King Yu. They may have believed that even if King Yu rebelled and ascended the throne, he would not do anything to them.
This is the politician from Daliang.
The Northern Rong invaded the country, but they ignored it.
The morale of Yunnan's military and people changed, but they did not try to appease it.
In the current chaos in the country, they just want to protect themselves.
If you are born as a human being, why should you place yourself on the nine heavens?
Such an attitude is worse than that of a normal citizen who pays taxes.
Emperor Liang silently watched everything in the court. Perhaps he had seen through the thoughts of his ministers, but at this time it was useless to say more.
The shouts of death from the other side of the imperial city gate were harsh, making him frown slightly and feel a little upset.
He knew that King Yu was a man who was willing to accept the soft and fear the tough. If he had not been favored by the ministers due to his status as his first son, he would never be as powerful as he is now.
King Yu did not have the courage to rebel, nor the means to win over the army.
Emperor Liang suddenly remembered a person, a person who perhaps should have disappeared long ago.
Here, he slowly raised his head and looked up at the night sky, not knowing what he was looking at.
The camera changes to a seven-story brothel in Qinghuafang, with Princess Linglong standing in front of the window on the top floor, looking calmly in the direction of the palace hall.
Back then, Princess Linglong helped Xiao Xuan become the prince, and thus became the emperor.
Now, Princess Linglong wants to help her son become the crown prince and take a step closer to the throne.
But what she wants to overthrow is Xiao Xuan, her old lover who she helped back then.
This is like a fateful reincarnation that pits the two people who once loved each other against each other at this moment. They stare at each other across the night sky, as if they are remembering the past that cannot be seen in the light.
"Hey." The audience sighed, feeling sad for these scenes.
The screen switched to a county town under a white foggy sky in the early morning.
Luo County is a Wei County under the northwest of Kyoto in Daliang. It is now under the jurisdiction of King Yu's city defense army.
The soldiers on the city gate tower were patrolling heavily to prevent Xiaoxiao and local troops from nearby prefectures and counties from coming to interfere with King Yu's actions in Kyoto.
However, the next moment.
When Mu Nihuang appeared on horseback, when the Northern Army walked out of the white mist like a long dragon, when the flag named Red Flame was dazzling and dazzling in the morning light, when one Beirong noble after another
The prisoners were escorted...
The sergeants on the walls of Luo County were stunned. The Red Flame Army they believed in had been resurrected? The Beirong they hated had been pacified?
In the hearts of the city defense army, only by King Yu leading the army to force the palace, can the truth of the tragedy of the Red Flame Army be revealed to the world. This is why they assisted King Yu.
The great affairs of the country lie in sacrifice and military affairs.
"Sacrifice" refers to the fact that the teacher has a reputation, and it refers to the name of morality, which is also true.
But in the Spring and Autumn Period, more than 500 BC, when King Chenggong of the Shan Kingdom uttered these words, he was referring to the justice under the great road and the truly convincing morality.
On the other hand, in the play, Princess Linglong was one of the people behind the Red Flame tragedy. She turned around and brainwashed the city defense army and said she wanted to ask for an explanation from the Red Flame Army. Is this justice?
King Yu was coerced by his status as a member of the Xia Kingdom's royal family and deceived the city defense army into seeking justice for the Red Flame Army. In fact, his purpose was to ascend to the throne. Is this moral?
In order to conceal his scandal, Emperor Liang deceived the people of the world and said that the Red Flame Army accidentally fell into the trap and the entire army was annihilated. This was not a just and moral approach.
In order to hide the truth, countless people use illusions to hide themselves.
This is just like in the past dynasties of our country, some egoists began to misinterpret and use the concept of wise men becoming public in the Spring and Autumn Period, and then slowly evolved this sentence into ideological propaganda that is beneficial to themselves.
In the Middle Ages, the Muslims of the Ming Dynasty spread China's ideological propaganda methods to the West.
Western countries have stolen and distorted such propaganda methods, distorted the foundation of China's culture of "Sacrifice and Rong", and used propaganda methods that belong to China and have been taken from the dross and eliminated the essence to maliciously spread the unwarranted ugliness of Chinese civilization.
and pathological, intending to make people around the world have a bad feeling about China.
In the final analysis, this is a manifestation of the West's lack of confidence in its own civilization and cultural inheritance, and it is also the fear brought to them by the brilliance of Chinese civilization.
The media is in the hands of the West, and conscious people have nothing to do about it.
But when the day comes when self-media rises and sober people have a channel to speak out, all illusions will slowly disappear and all the truth will gradually emerge before people's eyes.
By then, the veil of hypocrisy will not escape the fate of being spurned, and the originally bright and dazzling things will be respected by people with sincerity.
Just like the scene in the play, under Mu Nihuang's instructions, the Northland archers shot arrows with letters wrapped around them. These arrows had no arrowheads and were completely harmless and covered the city.
When the sergeants and the people in the city opened the letter, when the scribes who could read read the contents of the letter for everyone, when the sergeants present learned everything...
The loyalty, bravery and righteousness of the Red Flame Army made everyone shed tears.
The conspiracy of the imperial court and the remaining members of the Xia Kingdom made the soldiers and civilians heartbroken.
What made the city defense army feel most guilty was that when they gathered together to rebel for the rebel King Yu, Princess Nihuang and the Beidi soldiers fought hard on the front line and pacified the Beirong army in one fell swoop!
We are all soldiers, but they are helping the evildoers, while others are fighting on the front line to protect their homes and the country. What a shame!
When the truth is revealed, right and wrong become clear.
At this moment, justice is invincible!
"Clang."
"Bangdang..."
One by one, the sergeants laid down their weapons, and the city defense army, which returned to its normal path, opened the city gates and welcomed the newly reborn Red Flame Army who had returned in triumph with the highest respect.
"Don't be deceived by them! They..." An officer who was loyal to Princess Linglong wanted to resist in a corner and twisted right and wrong, but was chopped alive by the soldiers nearby. The nearby people even looked at her with disgust.
No matter how evil a person is, he can only harm one party and will eventually be punished by law.
And "traitors" like this are the most abominable. They can invisibly affect an army and millions of people. It is terrifying and hateful.
Mu Nihuang led the army through the city and continued to advance.
The city defense troops also silently followed the team and this army of justice.
When they arrived at the west gate of Kyoto, the army used the same method, using arrows with the arrows removed to shoot letters containing the truth into the city.
Princess Nihuang, the shadow of the famous tree, was a famous female commander who helped the country pacify the southern border.
The red flame flag is such a nostalgic military flag. It is also the spiritual belief of many people.
The dignitaries of Beirong, the great troubles of Daliang in northern Xinjiang, were also the life-long enemies of the sergeants.
After seeing all this with their own eyes and knowing the truth in the letter, without exception, the city defense troops at the west gate lowered their weapons and opened the city gate.
The few officers who jumped out to resist were all killed by the soldiers and despised by the people.
People in China are kind-hearted, and they cannot bear to see natural or man-made disasters, the suffering of their fellow soldiers, or the suffering of their compatriots. There are countless people who are willing to uphold justice.
However, what they hate most is using their kindness as a weapon. This is intolerable and absolutely unforgivable!
As the news spread, city defense troops patrolling from various places gathered, and the people passing by spontaneously gathered around Princess Nihuang.
When justice converges into a river, evil will eventually be destroyed.
Many viewers in front of the TV stood up involuntarily because the scene on the screen was so huge.
This is the first time they have seen a costume drama, where the military and civilians can unite to fight for justice. It is really shocking!
Some viewers found that the concepts and ideas promoted in the last few episodes of "Legend of Red Flame" were very grand in terms of structure.
Using the metaphor of the Red Flame Army, the audience's patriotism was aroused.
Through the opposition between truth and illusion, it hints at the unequal public opinion situation in China and the West today. The final truth was exposed by a few righteous people like Mu Nihuang, which seemed to tell them that China will one day be in the world.
rise in public opinion.
Using Mu Nihuang to lead soldiers and civilians to gather in Kyoto and go straight to the imperial city seems to mirror the demonstrations that are common in Western countries. But how many times have Western people successfully demonstrated? The arrogant powerful will never compromise with the people.
It is a great irony to demand the people's votes while failing to meet the people's demands.
The audience knows that Mu Nihuang will definitely succeed, King Yu's rebellion will definitely fail, and the truth about Chiyan will eventually be revealed to the world. Corresponding to the West, which will not compromise with the people, it is the Chinese world that belongs to everyone.
The idea of family and country, and the relationship between family and country that is unique to China and that water can carry or capsize a boat.
"A true divine drama!" Some viewers thoroughly understood "Legend of Red Flame" and were amazed by the essence and metaphors of traditional thought and culture they interpreted.
The screen came to King Yu's army tent.
"Qi...Qi reports to King Yu, Nihuang...Princess Nihuang led countless soldiers and civilians to come, including our city defense army and the Northern Army, and...and the King of Beirong who was escorted here."
"What?!"
King Yu had a look of fear on his face, and instantly lost his composure.
The scene comes to the palace hall.
"Your Majesty, Princess Nihuang pacified Beirong ten days ago, captured the King of Beirong and a group of dignitaries alive and brought them to Beijing to face the saint. Along the way, they persuaded King Yu's city defense troops to surrender. Now they are heading straight to the imperial city. Princess Nihuang brings Tao Tian
With such power, King Yu will be defeated sooner or later, and rebellion will be in vain."
"Wow——"
The whole court was in an uproar. How could Princess Nihuang pacify Beirong? Why did she come to King Qin with such overwhelming force?
They knew nothing, but were greatly shocked.
The shock on Emperor Liang's face slowly dissipated, and his heart was filled with mixed emotions.
Mu Nihuang pacified southern Xinjiang for Daliang, but he forced his husband's family to be destroyed.
Mu Nihuang now helped Daliang to pacify Beirong, and at this critical moment, he also tried to turn the tide and save the Daliang court from the fire and water.
Emperor Liang was silent, he didn't know how to understand all this.
His father once said that pure soldiers should not be coerced by politics. They are the ones who truly serve the country and the people.
"Did I do something wrong?" Emperor Liang was a little confused, completely ignoring the undercurrent in the court.
"I am the emperor, how could I be wrong!" Emperor Liang clenched his fists and used his remaining self-esteem and stubbornness to convince himself.
The people in the court were in chaos, and most of the officials belonged to King Yu's faction. Seeing King Yu lose power, whether it was King Jing who ascended the throne or the current Emperor Liang, they would be the ones to settle the accounts with his queen.
If this account is calculated like that, the clan may end up being exterminated!
"Everyone!" King Jing suddenly spoke up, and the court fell into silence.
Just listen to Prince Jing's stern words: "Prince Yu's rebellion was his own fault. As the saying goes, one person is responsible for the work. Now that Princess Nihuang has returned with the general trend, Prince Yu's failure has become a foregone conclusion."
"The city defense army led by King Yu was only temporarily deceived, and you have more or less contacts with officers at all levels of the city defense army. In order to avoid causing more losses, why don't you bring order to the chaos and persuade them to surrender?"
"While clearing the obstacles for Princess Nihuang, all of you will also have a role in saving the country."
At this critical moment, King Jing stepped forward to take charge of the overall situation.
However, Prince Jing did not stand up sooner or later, but he chose to stand up at this time.
Princess Nihuang has come with great momentum. As long as she shows up, the city defense troops fighting under King Yu will definitely switch sides, leaving only a group of dead soldiers fighting for King Yu.
But it was just a group of dead soldiers, facing Princess Nihuang's army was a dead end.
In other words, whether King Jing is in charge of the overall situation, King Yu's rebellion is destined to be shattered.
Under this inevitable result, and because the ministers were afraid of settling accounts with the Empress, King Jing's words were tantamount to saying: King Yu, whom you supported, will fall. Come and support me now, and I will let bygones be bygones.
If King Yu falls, who else can ascend the throne and proclaim himself emperor? Only King Jing.
The effect of King Jing's words was to win over a large number of civil and military officials in an instant when King Yu was bound to lose.
"Damn it! Prince Jing has come up with a reversal!"
"Oh my god, Prince Jing is so hidden. This is really awesome."
"I always thought that Prince Jing was not greedy for power. I never expected that at this critical moment, he would make a final decision. This is a bit shocking to me."
"This is a conspiracy. Prince Jing's operation astonished me."
In the eyes of the audience, Prince Jing has always been a good man who wants to uphold justice in the Chi Yan case.
Whether he was facing Emperor Liang's scolding in the court or facing Prince Yu's criticism, Prince Jing was always stubborn in investigating the Chi Yan case.
It's hard not to like a character like this.
However, the plot just now caused a subversive change in Prince Jing's character.
Prince Jing, who had always refused to ally with officials and regarded them as nothing more than a loser, actually openly recruited these officials to help him for the sake of power and desire for the throne that he had never shown.
This is the real King Jing!
As a prince, he doesn't care about the throne at all. How is this possible?
He has been waiting for the opportunity, but he does not deny his true friendship with Mu Nihuang and his brotherly relationship with Lin Shu during his lifetime. Otherwise, he would not have been so dedicated in investigating the truth of the Chiyan tragedy.
Emperor Liang looked deeply at Prince Jing, as if he truly understood his son for the first time.
But, he laughed.
Prince Jing was his only prince with pure blood, and he originally wanted Prince Jing to inherit the great cause.
It is worthy of his happiness that Prince Jing can have such a city and means.
"Prince Jing's will is my will." Emperor Liang supported Prince Jing for the first time.
The ministers were silent, they knew that things were about to change.
Just like that, the ministers walked up to the walls of the imperial city and shouted to the city defense army to correct their evil ways and not to be deceived by King Yu.
Prince Yu's face was livid, and he looked at each other in the military tent with his mother, Princess Linglong.
Princess Linglong sighed: "Time is also destiny."
She didn't feel too disappointed, she just touched Prince Yu's face and said, "Give up, he is your father, he won't kill you, you might as well live the rest of your life in peace."
As the saying goes, evil people can be indulged for a while, but it is difficult to indulge them for a lifetime.
When justice comes, no conspiracy or trick can resist it.
Mu Nihuang came to the tent with countless soldiers and civilians. King Yu, Princess Linglong and others had already put down their weapons. They faced Mu Nihuang calmly. Perhaps they were already mentally prepared for failure.
The scene changed and it was half a year later.
Mu Nihuang's return made Yunnan's army and people settle down.
The King of Beirong surrendered to Daliang, and after his children were used as hostages, they were returned to the court of the King of Beirong.
At this point, the world in Daliang was completely at peace, and Kyoto returned to its former prosperity and peace.
King Jing ascended the throne and proclaimed himself emperor as a matter of course, and erected a special monument for the Red Flame Army. The only remaining tomb of Lin Shu represents the Red Flame Army and is respected by everyone.
Xia Dong took the initiative to resign and wanted to guard the tomb of Chiyanyuan Mausoleum, so the Xuanjing Division collapsed.
Mei Changsu was invited by King Jing to become an official, but Mei Changsu refused and returned to the Jiangzuo Alliance.
Mu Nihuang gave the Red Flame Commander Sword to Meng Zhi, who was transferred to the commander-in-chief of the Red Flame Army and reestablished the Red Flame Army with the Northern Army as the core.
Among the remaining members of the Xia Kingdom in the Youye Court, only Princess Xuanji, who was involved in the incident, was beheaded. Seeing that the incident was exposed, Xia Jiang confessed everything calmly. His identity as the remaining member of the Xia Kingdom shocked the court. It was not until Xia Jiang was beheaded that he gradually
calm.
The beheading of Xu Shi's biological sister and the beheading of Xia Jiang, a person she trusted, made Princess Linglong feel sad and died of illness in confinement.
The powerful King Yu was suddenly imprisoned in a small palace. This blow, coupled with the death of his mother, caused King Yu to commit suicide, and his wife, Princess Yu, also hanged herself with him.
The camera came to the back garden, where Emperor Xiao Xuan looked crazy.
"I am right!"
"I am right!!"
As the truth about Chi Yan came to light, thousands of people in Daliang were saddened by this tragedy, and criticism of Xiao Xuan was everywhere in the market.
Xiao Xuan always believed that he was right, he was the emperor, and everything he did was right.
Until Mu Nihuang brought Lin Shu's tombstone and placed it in front of Xiao Xuan, Xiao Xuan saw the words "Phoenix Nirvana, Northland Yongchang" on the tombstone, and learned that Daliang only needed one army to pursue Beirong, and Beirong then
He finally broke through the truth that his strength was exhausted.
His words to the Red Flame Army were: Phoenix Nirvana, and peace for the Northland for twenty years.
He believed that he had a great plan. With 30,000 soldiers to fight for twenty years of peace, and using the resources provided to the Red Flame Army to develop national strength, he could build a strong army and destroy the Beirong once and for all.
But the words on the tombstone and the fact that Beirong was beaten almost to the point of exhaustion by Chi Yan told him that the structure of the Chi Yan Army was bigger than him.
He only wanted twenty years of peace, and the Red Flame Army wanted eternal peace. Knowing this truth undoubtedly severely hurt his self-esteem.
At this moment, he was going crazy, puffing up his proud chest, and kept shouting, "I'm not wrong, they were wrong."
The nearby maids did not dare to approach him, and some of them even looked at him with disdain.
Seriously——
Old age is like relaxation but also pride, and splendor is like a dream.
It makes heaven and earth angry, and there is no more beautiful smile in the world.
As an emperor, even when he abdicated in old age, he was still arrogant and had the ideal of making all nations and peoples of the world worship him. However, he happened to do things that offended the world and even the beauties in the palace. Even the beauties in the palace lost their smiles. This ideal finally ended
It's just a ridiculous dream.
The camera turned and came to the shop.
In the tea house, there were huge crowds on the first, second and third floors, watching a storyteller in the middle of the first floor saying vividly:
"The Beirong army surges from the grassland, how can I, the majestic Chiyan, be afraid of him!"
"I saw all kinds of heavy cavalry coming towards me, like heavenly troops coming to earth, and they cut through the formation of the Beirong army in an instant."
"The leader is Lin Shushi, the young commander of the Red Flame Army. Just look at him with his eagle eyes, his cloak fluttering, his spear leaning on his hand, and the sound of his horse's hooves. He is an extraordinary warrior."
"He roared angrily: Lin Shu is here, who dares to fight with me!"
"With just this sentence, the foreign tribesmen in Beirong were so frightened that they all fled in panic!"
"This is the power of red flames."
The sound of reading stopped midway, and he picked up the tea cup to drink tea.
The entire teahouse and the people who came outside applauded: "Okay! Let's do another section!"
Liu Yifei was hidden in the crowd, with a faint smile on her lips, as beautiful as a pear blossom blooming.
"Sister, it's time to set off," reminded my younger brother Musong.
Liu Yifei nodded slowly and looked around Kyoto, as if she was paying her last respects.
The screen gradually changed, and a monologue in a broadcasting tone came out: [Announcement: Yunnan Wang Musong is still young and lacks the ability to take charge of the Yunnan Army. Reject Mu Nihuang's document of disassembly and reinstate Mu Nihuang as the marshal of the Yunnan Army...]
On the official road outside the city gate, Mu Nihuang and the small group of Yunnan troops who came to greet them gradually moved away.
The morning sunshine symbolizes vitality, and the theme song "Red Beauty" also comes with it.
【"The west wind crosses the cold mountain rain at night,
Home and country are still in a dream.
I miss you more than I miss you,
Parting is unbearable and parting is unbearable.”]
At the beginning of the story, Mu Nihuang gave up his position as marshal, gave up his great love for his family and country in suppressing southern Xinjiang, and chose the little love in his heart to return to Kyoto.
This choice is understandable, but it goes against the interests of the family and the country. After all, she is a marshal, and her army can be lost at will. This is unreasonable.
At the end of the story, Mu Nihuang did not keep vigil for her husband, did not miss everything her husband had in Kyoto, and did not choose to be with Concubine Jing, Princess Liyang and other family members. She chose to return to the army.
Just like what Lin Shu said to Mu Nihuang in the memory scene——
The soldiers and horses marched on the march, and they fought to the death to defend the territory.
The armor is always there, and the mountains and rivers are safe.
To protect the peace of one place for the general, and to protect the peace of the home and country for the general.
Mu Nihuang initially gave up her great love for a small love, but after feeling her husband's legacy and the dedication of the Red Flame Army, she further understood the noble meaning of being a soldier, so she returned to her without hesitation.
The army protects the country and the people.
In a long shot, accompanied by the singing of the theme song, Liu Yifei's figure bloomed in the distant sunshine.
Just as her glorious figure began to loom, these three words finally appeared on the screen - [End of the play].
