Dae Jo Young was passed out from drinking but Mimosa had the intuition that something was going on and he send Gulsabiwu and gang. They managed to prevent the assassins from killing Dae Jo Young.
Meanwhile Xue Rengui, Li Wen and gang are begging for mercy from the Emperor Wu Zetian. She refuses to see them even though they had been kneeling for 2 days.
She eventually agrees to see Xue Rengui who tells her that he knows how to beat Dae Jo Young and Li Kaigu. Divide and conquer! Make Dae Jo Young and Li Kaigu turn against each other.
While the Khitans have claimed Yingzhou for themselves and crowned their own king, Dae Jo Young had declared a new state yet.
Xue Rengui asked the Emperor to acknowledge Dae Jung Sang (seniority comes first) as a new leader. By doing so, the Khitans will probably be outraged as the Emperor has not acknowledged them yet.
This episode ended with the Emperor’s envoy visiting Dae Jung Sang and Dae Jo Young with the news and Dae Jo Young is about to kill the messenger.
