Twilight of a Nation - Season 1 Episode 43

On learning from a lady attendant that SUEN KIU and TAK HOI have left, SUI CHUEN questions YIP LING, who makes up an excuse. YIP LING introduces changes to the commendation system, and encounters opposition from some officials. She subsequently removes them. SUI-CHUEN gets suspicious of the fact that YIP LING has replaced some lady attendants, and stops taking the drug. He recovers his senses. His trip to the city makes him realize how YIP LING has made his people suffer; at the same time, he discovers that YIP LING is having an affair with CHIU SHAO. Disgruntled with life in the Heavenly Kingdom, people march to the palace to petition. YIP LING tries to put the blame on SUI CHUEN, who, however, convinces them of his benevolence. With the impending arrival of KWOK FANG, SUI SHINQ and YUK SHING ask SUI CHUEN for help. In order to kill them, YIP LING forges an order to attack. Realizing what she is up to, SUI CHUEN stops her.
