## Series
- title: Elixir of the Sun
- slug: elixir-of-the-sun-d2ec80

## Chapter
- number: 35
- release_date: 2025-03-12

### Summary
The chapter navigates the immediate fallout from the court's political maneuvering, as Emperor Dhan faces continued pressure to secure an heir with other concubines. While he appears to entertain the idea of visiting another woman, causing some reader apprehension, the consensus is that this is a political feint and his devotion remains solely with Bayan. The central event involves Bayan discovering a massive trove of gold and lavish gifts left anonymously at her doorstep. Readers interpret this as a bribe from court factions or other concubines attempting to curry favor or manipulate her, though Bayan herself reacts with confusion and suspicion rather than greed. A significant new character element is introduced: Bayan has a dangerous habit of sleepwalking, sometimes with a knife, which is presented as a source of future conflict and a potential vulnerability. Amidst the political intrigue and foreshadowing, the narrative reinforces Dhan's singular focus on Bayan, with readers praising his loyalty and the detailed artwork, including a specific panel of Bayan's emotional expression and a potentially significant Confucian quote hidden in the background.
