Did NOT see Prince Hui dying coming. And Pingjing gets blamed for it! He and his family are very lucky to know that the Emperor cares for them so much he won't execute and likely not exile Pingjing, but it still sucks a lot. Pingjing doesn't do much other than hang out at the manor at the moment, but while he isn't thinking about it right now, he does want to actually have a position with some responsibility one day and he can't do that with his reputation destroyed. Luckily at least he wasn't the one to ask for the fight, so it would be hard to accuse him of planning it beforehand. I wanted to like Chonghua :( Poor Tuoba Yu.
I'm glad Minister Xun is at least doubting Priest Puyang, but he seemed to buy his latest excuses for what his aims are, so we'll see.
Someone with the sect tattoo being basically the Crown Prince's nanny is also concerning... Might explain how Puyang "heals" the Crown Prince so quickly each time.
