Ya Qing is one of my favourite villains - so much style and poise, and even when she concedes defeat she still has so much style and poise.
(I think he just doesn't really know where the snakes live and is too proud to ask for directions, so he wanders in the general vicinity until he comes across the place.
I could totally see that. Chu is the ultimate 'guy who won't ask for directions'. The conversation they had where Zhao Yunlan first claimed he doesn't actually know Shen Wei, then swore his innocence, was hilarious.
That TOTAL switch! Not even from just claiming he didn't know him, but from actively suspecting Shen Wei himself. It's like 'WTF are you doing here you suspicious son of a--- ah, Minister Gao, this person is totally innocent, I swear!'
I keep trying to figure out what Minister Gao knows. He seems totally unfazed by Shen Wei's display of power, but this scene (and a later one which I'm trying to place) makes me think he doesn't know Shen Wei is the Envoy. Maybe he's just really easygoing.
From this point on, he spends basically the whole episode with his head bowed.
And almost crying. And totally paralyzed. He's like, frozen, Zhao Yunlan throws stuff at him and he just... waits it out until it's (hopefully, soon...) over. :(
It's also one of those scenes where Shen Wei says a lot with his expressions but says almost nothing in words.
Zhao Yunlan, OTOH, shows a lot of improv planning on his feet skills, and also excellent marksmanship, since he knew he could shoot the gun steadily enough to only graze Zhu Hong, and quickly snap around and wound Zhu Jiu with a bullet.
I'm interested in the gun thing. It's a dark energy gun, so why did it even hurt Zhu Hong?
