Heavy Sweetness, Ash like Frost (Ashes of Love / Xiang Mi Chen Chen Jin Ru Shuang / 香蜜沉沉烬如霜)

"Ashes of Love"

"Episode 14"

Jin Mi is still inside.

If Jin Mi heard these,

we all can share this blame...

but why should we drag Jin Mi into the affair of the past generation?

Does that mean...

Zi Fen died in the frost fall of the year 28612...

but not summer solstice in year 28613?

Flora Realm hid the news about Zi Fen's death for almost a year?

- Why? - That year...

Haitang!

Are you not going to even listen to me?

All the chiefs have already sworn an oath to the late chief,

please don't force us to tell you anymore.

Chiefs, today Little One has found her father.

Please don't make her upset anymore.

Why don't you all go inside to accompany her?

If you would like to talk about the old days,

why don't you talk to me?

Lao Hu,

you are considered someone who was close to Zi Fen.

You must know what had happened back then.

Since the late chief had always wanted to keep this secret,

I'm afraid she intended not let you worry about it.

However, since you are not willing to become a confused fool,

then why not become a sad but understanding person?

Back then when Heavenly Emperor was still the second prince,

he planned every move carefully...

to win over the late chief's heart,

I am sure you are more aware of it than I do.

In order to rise to the throne as Heavenly Emperor,

he formed an alliance with the bird tribe...

and married the princess of bird tribe, Tu Yao...

and betrayed the late chief.

When the late chief knew about it, she was desperate and heartbroken.

Luckily,

luckily your kindness...

to the late chief was the same every day.

Her love for you had grown stronger in time.

This was supposed to stop her before it was too late.

Who knew?

The Heavenly Emperor acted the same even after he was crowned.

He continued to harass the late chief...

but the late chief refused to yield.

That made the Heavenly Emperor even more frustrated and...

he forcibly defiled the late chief.

He used force on Zi Fen!

But the late chief didn't know that...

she was already pregnant with Jin Mi.

In anger,

she went to the River of Unmindfulness.

Lady.

You already made your choice between power and me.

We have taken different paths,

but you've shamed me and made me betray Luo Lin.

Only by jumping into the River of Unmindfulness...

could wash off the shame and heartbreak.

The late chief wanted to drink from River of Unmindfulness...

to forget her sorrow but Heavenly Emperor stopped her.

She then jumped into the river to destroy her own spirit...

but the Heavenly Emperor cast a spell to stop her.

I am the Heavenly Emperor.

The entire of Heaven Realm is mine.

I won't allow you to die...

and I won't allow you to forget me.

Let me go!

Let me go!

Let me go!

The Heavenly Emperor imprisoned the late chief inside Qi Wu Palace.

Brother!

Brother!

Brother!

To get the late chief to give up on you,

the Heavenly Emperor plotted to get you and Wind Immortal to marry,

he even purposely let the late chief hear about it.

The Water Immortal and Wind Immortal have arrived.

His Majesty, why did you summon Lin Xi and I?

Brother.

My heart belongs to someone else,

even if I'm not the one she wants...

I've already decided that I won't marry anyone else except for her.

Forming a marriage between Lin Xiu and you...

is not an idea of just my own.

Due to the unrest in the six realms,

a marriage between you two...

would boost up the morale of the soldiers in the Heaven Realm.

Luo Lin, are you going to defy my order?

Thank you your Majesty for your kindness.

I wish that Princess Tu Yao and you would be happy together forever...

but to go against my heart,

even if you have to take away my immortality and make me human,

I will not obey your order.

Your Majesty, please calm down.

Luo Lin, Zi Fen and I had been...

cultivating in the same school for thousands of years.

We are as close as siblings.

I cannot just take away their loved ones.

Tu Yao was already married to the Heavenly Emperor as she wished,

what else was she not satisfied with?

Due to the situation then, the Heavenly Emperor...

has no choice but to make Tu Yao his wife.

But in his heart, he has always missed the late chief.

He even wanted to make the late chief his concubine.

"Lin Yuan Terrace" Tu Yao found out about it...

and how could she not hate her?

- Chief! - Chief!

- Chief! - Chief!

- Chief! - Chief!

Why are you hurt so badly?

- Chief! - Chief!

After I've rejected the marriage proposal,

I went to the Flora Realm to visit Zi Fen...

but she told me...

she has never loved me.

From the very beginning till the end, I only love the Heavenly Emperor.

Why don't you just go and marry Lin Xiu?

The spirit and internal organs of late chief were already severely burnt.

She knew she couldn't live any longer.

That's why she had been cold to you,

in hopes that you would be able to let her go easily.

She didn't want you...

to cause a scene for something that can never be undone.

She hoped that the Wind Immortal and you could be a loving...

and contented couple.

I wanted to spend the rest of my life with Zi Fen...

but this world is unpredictable.

Without Zi Fen,

how can I be contented?

Jin Mi lost her mother when she was so young,

she was lonely and helpless,

how can I forgive myself?

I must kill that poisonous woman with my own hands.

Even if my spirit will be perished,

I'll have to avenge Zi Fen!

The deceased is already gone.

The late chief's spirit has been destroyed,

even if you have finally avenged her,

she will not be resurrected.

Also, the late chief's last wish...

was for the Flora Realm to be peaceful...

and stop seeking revenge on each other.

The late chief was worried that the little grape would be like her,

develop infatuation and die in grief.

That's why she ordered all the chiefs to strictly protect this secret.

Even made Grape to dress up like a man when she's out...

and trap her in the Water Mirror for 10,000 years,

even asked me to watch over her closely.

I thought that the little one...

would be happy and carefree for the rest of her life.

Who would have thought that...

fate messes with people?

Jin Mi,

it's you after all.

There's a limit to taking revenge,

how could you use Jin Mi...

and put the young chief of Flora Realm in danger.

Do you know that...

the Heavenly Empress almost killed her that day?

Hurting her is the Heavenly Empress's doing,

not what I wish for.

I will no longer help you.

Chief Yulan, do you really want to break the agreement?

You broke faith first.

I've already told you...

there's a limit to taking revenge,

it must not involve the people from Flora Realm.

Since we have already decided to take revenge,

of course there will be risk.

If you dare to cause anymore harm to Jin Mi,

I will not forgive you.

Chief Zhang has always been just and stern,

if she finds out that we formed an alliance,

what would be your consequences?

No matter what,

we are on the same boat right now.

Since we've started it,

how can we stop now?

Take care of yourself.

"Xuan Ji Palace"

Your Highness, how's Jin Mi?

Luckily, Water Immortal was there to help.

Jin Mi is fine now.

Jin Mi is actually Water Immortal's daughter.

According to the arrangement made 4000 years ago,

she is my fiancée.

Isn't she...

the child of Heavenly Emperor?

The magical prowess that father passed to her goes against her own prowess.

Water Immortal has already personally checked it.

He confirms that Jin Mi is his own child.

Soon...

he'll announce it publicly.

Your Highness, I can see that you're very happy.

I've never been this happy...

but I've also never been this nervous.

I overheard the conversation between Water Immortal and Chief Zhang...

about the relationship between father and late Flora Immortal, Zi Fen.

The Water Immortal hates father and mother.

I'm afraid that he might not approve this marriage.
