The screen went black, and the video abruptly ended.
Sun Xiaoxiao and her family were stunned.
Not only that, tonight, all viewers of "Yun Qing Ji" across the internet were stunned!
The end credits song has started playing, but the song that usually makes viewers stop and listen is now ignored.
Sun Xiaoxiao felt short of breath, and her eyes almost bulged out.
That hand just now, that hand just now!
Sun Xiaoxiao's parents discussed among themselves, "Who was that person playing chess just now?"
"I don't know, the hand looks like a woman's hand..."
"How can you tell if someone is a boy or a girl from just two fingers...?"
Sun Xiaoxiao didn't care what her parents were saying anymore; she immediately opened Weibo with the speed of an arrow.
Opening the Weibo trending topics list, sure enough, the hashtag #YunQingJiZhiQiRen# has jumped to second place!
The top trending topic was #The Emperor and Empress of Yun Qing's Story#, but don't forget that the scene of the person holding the chessboard at the end of episode 38 was only a few minutes ago!
It climbed to second place on the trending topics list in just a few minutes!
Sun Xiaoxiao's heart pounded like a drum. She clicked on the topic, and sure enough, a huge number of people were already arguing fiercely in it.
【Aa ...
[It's obviously Princess Pingzhao's hand!!! Right, right!]
[Oxygen... Zheng Bohan, you're stuck here, are you trying to die...?]
[It's not yet certain if it's Pingzhao's hand; only two fingers are visible, though they're a bit thin and pale... But...]
[66666, I think I'm lacking oxygen]
[Ugh, I can't stand these idiots in this thread! Use your shrunken brains and think about it! It's been made clear in the earlier parts of the story that before the Empress died, the Emperor only had her as his wife!!!]
Only after the Empress died did the Emperor marry these seventy-two concubines from three palaces and six courtyards!
In other words, none of the emperor's later sons and daughters had ever seen the late empress's face, including the seventh prince—please, brainless haters, use your pig brains! Besides the emperor, who else in this world could remember the late empress's voice, smile, and every move? And who else could train an assassin who looked exactly like the late empress?!
[Don't be so funny. What, besides Princess Pingzhao, have you seen all the old ministers of the late Empress dead? Couldn't it have been the old ministers who supported the Seventh Prince who brought them here?]
[I rushed to Ye Chu's supertopic and found screenshots of all the hands Princess Pingzhao showed. Please, experts, compare those two fingers. This is really important to me, sob sob]
Does nobody care whether the Seventh Prince lives or dies?
The Seventh Prince has already been declared a pawn, doomed to die; who cares about cannon fodder?
[The scumbag emperor definitely came prepared. Seventh Prince, out of the running.]
[I'm really dying, why can't it all be broadcast at once...]
[A certain hysteriac fan is here again, muddying the waters and glorifying their own Princess Chunzhu, huh?]
[My female hater came running as soon as she smelled it, I'm laughing so hard. Afraid of being proven wrong?]
[A slap in the face in a dream: all her scheming and plotting led to her raising a knock-off version of her biological mother to assassinate her own father, only to have her ally, the Seventh Prince, turn out to be incredibly stupid, shattering her dream of imitating the former regent princess once again~]
[Someone actually remembers the former regent princess from episode 28! The princess was so cool! A million times better than the pig-headed Pingzhao, but unfortunately, she still lost because of fate, sob sob sob]
When will Aunt Pingzhao and her fans realize that their only support is their emperor father? Otherwise, they would have been beaten to death by the prince consort in episode four. Trying to kill one's father is truly foolish.
The trending topics were a chaotic mess, and Sun Xiaoxiao used to be furious every time she saw these comments. She could only argue back while getting angry, and she would even cry from anger when she saw particularly outrageous remarks.
However, Sun Xiaoxiao felt surprisingly calm when she saw these comments today.
She left the trending topic filled with hostility and clicked into Ye Chu's super topic.
When Sun Xiaoxiao first started following this hashtag, there were only a few dozen people in it. By tonight, it has grown to over nine thousand.
The atmosphere in the Super Topic was much better than the one on the trending topics. The fans who had been waiting for a month were more excited than the casual viewers on the trending topics, and everyone was excitedly chatting and laughing in the Super Topic.
[It must be the baby! It must be, waaaaah!]
Family, we're almost through this! It's the last darkness before dawn!
[Those are Xiao Chu's hands! It must be Xiao Chu's hands, I recognized them at a glance!]
[Please stop arguing with those people trending on social media; they only believe what they want to believe.]
I'm hanging on by a thread, barely daring to blink... I'm really about to have a heart attack.
[Hidden Butterfly, Yunfeng TV's commercials used to be only ten minutes or so, why are they still going on after twenty minutes today?]
[The sponsors are throwing money at it; these ads are charged by the second...]
[I really can't take it anymore. I just want to see Xiao Chu slap people in the face and dominate everyone, especially slap the faces of Lin Haishan and Xu Hanwen's group of dead sword tombs until they're ruined.]
[Sisters, calm down! There are only five minutes left until the commercial break!]
I was hoping to find some relief by reading Xiao Chu's analysis on Green Leaf, but it exploded there too, with the whole internet speculating.
[The green-plated domestic drama production team has built a skyscraper from scratch, and all the previous analysis posts have been bumped up.]
[Tieba forums are in an uproar too, with fierce battles raging in the Chinese drama forums.]
[Isn't Tieba mostly frequented by men? Do men watch palace dramas too?]
[Wei Tianchi, Liao Li, and Wang Miyun have many male fans, and those male fans all hate "Yun Qing Ji". Among them, Zhao Zhao is the most annoying character in "Yun Qing Ji"...]
I'm fed up. My sister hates everyone, men and women alike... Xiao Chu only has us left.
Qin Tianye has quite a few male fans. Su Ge's character only exists in flashbacks, so there's not much to criticize. The other characters only appeared in one or two episodes, so there's even less to criticize. Only His Highness is being targeted.
[Just got back from Tieba, wow, the pro-Hira/Akira faction and the anti-Hira/Akira faction are exchanging barbs, they've even come up with their own house numbers...]
[There are actually people on Tieba supporting Hiraisho? Is that true?]
It was a restless night.
For some, it was a night of anxiety; for others, a night of hope; for still others, a night of wasted effort.
Tonight, there is still one episode of "Yun Qing Ji" that has not been finished airing.
Amidst the clamor of debate, the long twenty-five-minute commercial break finally ended. Episode 39 of "Yun Qing Ji"—"Zhuang Zhou Ji"—has finally premiered.
