[Episode 26]

-A'Weng.
-Yes.

Xiao Douzi, quickly rise.

Why are you doing this for?

A'Weng, I know you wanted to get rid of Pei Xingjian for me,

but I beg you to not have any bad intentions to him again.

Pei Xingjian has already knew of my female identity.

When I left the palace, he already knew.

He has no bad intention towards me. He has saved me several times.

You almost have caused great trouble, making me a criminal.

Pei Xingjian already knew you were a female?

This Pei Jingxian has investigated your Mother's old files.

He might have already knew you are Attire Expert An's daughter.

This is too dangerous. We have to think of a way to make him be quiet.

A'Weng, not only Pei Xingjian knows now, even Talented Lady Wu knows.

What? What? Even Talented Lady Wu knows?

A'Weng don't worry, Pei Xingjian and Talented Lady Wu are good people, they won't harm me.

In the palace, it is full of danger, I know.

I have 2 more friends I can rely on, isn't that a good thing?

You girl! You are the same as your mother.

Always think of others as kind as yourself.

You don't know the evils of people, you think they are easy to distinguish.

A'Weng, I know you love me most.

I promise you, I will be careful everywhere and I won't have danger.

But you also have to promise me you cannot harm Pei Xingjian again.

You also cannot harm Talented Lady Wu again.

You,

can I not promise you now?

Now, even Talented Lady Wu knows your background,

I can't kill everyone that knows.

Even if I have the intention, I don't have the skills.

A'Weng, don't be angry.

You,

you can't let me be less worried?

I know.

[Bureau of Imperial Attire]

The matter of dreaming a fairy,

you talk of it as if it is real.

These few days, has the fairy taught you any new skills in your dream?

Even if you don't ask, I wanted to tell you.

Ever since Fairy told me the sewing skills last time,

she hasn't showed up in several days. I am also worried.

I thought if Fairy doesn't come to my dream,

then how would I tell Attire Expert Zhuo?

Last night, before I slept, I burned incense sticks for respect,

I begged that Fairy has to come to my dream.

Then, Fairy really did come.

She taught me how to do long and short stitch.

Then as the Fairy said in the dream,

I used the long and short stitch to fill in the wings of the butterfly.

It really is beautiful and real looking, have a look Attire Expert Zhuo.

Madam An taught me this long and short stitch before.

But I have never taught anyone in Bureau of Imperial Attire.

How did Xiao Douzi learn?

Unless the fairy coming to the dream to teach sewing, is real?

The long and short stitch...

How rare is this?

Then, my teacher has taught me.

Does it need a Fairy to teach you in a dream?

I think you

are just making up things and have heard it from others.

Attire Expert Zhuo, so you know this sewing method?

But I haven't seen anyone else in Bureau of Imperial Attire use this sewing method.

That is because I have never taught them.

Learning a skill starts from the basics.

When they know the basics well,

I will naturally teach them one by one.

So Mother has taught this method to Zhuo Jinniang.

Yet Zhuo Jinniang is selfish.

She doesn't teach the methods to others in Bureau of Imperial Attire.

The experts all think alike.

That's what the fairy also said in the dream.

She said I haven't gone through actual training and my basics were not well.

So fairy had to start from the basics to teach me.

The fairy said, other than the long and short stitch,

there is also stuff like brick stitch, fishnet stitch, and interlaced herringbone.

These are sewing methods teacher has once taught me.

Then did the fairy in the dream say it as so?

Really.

Then-, the fairy in your dream,

what does she look like? How old is she?

Has she told you

when she was alive,

what she her name was, what her surname was?

Her magic breath was lingering in my dream. No matter how much I tried,

I had no way to see her appearance clearly.

I could not bring up her surname and her age.

Of course I did not dare ask so many questions!

But the fairy said...said that I was gifted and bright.

The elementary skills I have, can't be mastered within s few months!

Then, the sewing methods that have already disappeared in the world, she will

teach them to me.

Teach them slowly?

Then did the fairy in the dream really say so?

Master, the eunuch from Hua Qin dropped by.

they asked if Consort Yang's pillow is finished.

My injury is still not healed, I cannot sit for a long period of time.

Qiniang.

-Teacher, slowly.
-You go

as this design

to make a new pillow for Consort Yang.

Yes. I will do my best.

Wait.

I haven't taught you how to stitch the wings for this butterfly.

Although, you have not taught me,

but I can try.

This is Consort Yang's pillow, how can we be careless!

With your skills, it'll be a disaster.

It's alright. You should bring this design to Xiao Douzi.

Ask him to try.

Yes.

Xiao Douzi, this is the design for Consort Yang's pillow.

I have already finished drawing it, you may have a look.

This Xiao Douzi really is outstanding.

As long as it involves sewing,

nothing can stop him.

If he has nothing to do with Attire Expert An,

where would he have these skills from?

An has died.

Her daughter Liu Li has also died.

Then who else could it be?

Not right.

I never was able to find my master's book and golden needle.

Did Teacher really save these treasures for someone else?

Now that I say it,

Xiao Douzi's sewing skills and methods,

it may really have originated from Teacher.

Miss Qiniang.

Can you help me sew Consort Yang's pillows?

-Really?
-Of course!

Don't let Attire Expert Zhuo know for now, this we'll secretly sew

if Attire Expert Zhuo cannot tell, then it means your skills really have improved.

But...can I do it?

How can you not? I have told you about the methods.

Now you have a chance to practice, this is great!

If my Teacher treats me half as well as you,

then it's at least repayment for my service for so many years.

Xiao Douzi, if we really were to think about it,

you are my real Teacher.

Be careful to not let her hear.

I'm willing to teach you.

But I don't want you to offend your Teacher because of this.

Let me tell you something.

Attire Expert Zhuo is wicked, she is not someone kind.

Being by her side, you have to be more careful.

Don't be used by her and be harmed without knowing.

Idiot boy.

He's in danger himself yet he doesn't care, and was only worried about me.

I am not someone brilliant. My master won't notice me.

The one that Teacher fears is you.

Teacher, did you have a nightmare?

I dreamt of An Shi.

I dreamt that An Shi is looking for me.

She already died, yet she dares to enter my dreams to scare me!

She said - she said I need to give her my life.

Why would Attire Expert An want you to give her immortality?

Could it be...

That time

I betrayed my family for righteousness. I did nothing wrong.

That Attire Expert An sought her own death.

What does it have to do with me?

That's right.

She's scaring me.

Yes, she's just scaring me.

She's already dead. What could she do to me?

No matter what, we must honor the dead.

If Attire Expert An came to master in a dream,

then master can light some incense for her, to send her spirit in peace.

Qiniang,

What day is it today?

Today's the eighth.

The eighth...

It's exactly the anniversary of An Shi's death.

Then it's really that Madam An died with regrets

and came to take revenge on me?

Qiniang.

What you said is right.

In any case, she was my teacher.

Go, go.

Prepare some incense and paper money for me.

I will honor her.

Master, the palace is heavily guarded.

Where are we going to honor her?

Yixing palace.

Yixing palace?

That palace that's haunted?

Xiao Douzi said his skills

all came from a fairy.

That fairy said her vengeful spirit

is located in Yixing palace.

Looking at this situation,

it's 80% guaranteed to be Madam An.

Yixing palace is haunted.

Few people go.

We can go to Yixing palace to honor her.

It's the best location.

People have desires and nightmares.

Attire Expert An's death probably is related to master.

Today is the anniversary of her death.

No wonder master is so scared and panicked.

[Yixing palace]

Mother,

Liuli entered the Bureau of Attire

to avenge you.

To clear your name.

When you have your rightful revenge,

I will find

the young man who saved me back then.

And ask him to return the golden needle and book I stored with him.

So, I can pass on

your embroidery skills.

Come quickly.

Hurry.

-But I haven't finished burning the money yet.
-There's no time.

-Mastery, slow down.
-Quiet.

What is that?

Go.

Hurry!

Teacher, apart from us,

could there be others here to honor her?

It couldn't be. That's too coincidental.

Why also today.

This-

Hu-style bread?

This Hu-style bread was An Shi's favorite food.

Could it be? That this person

is also related to Madam An?

Look at this. They must've left in a hurry.

They mustn't have gone far. Qiniang, hurry.

Hurry and chase them! Quickly! Go after them!

Yes.

Qiniang, it's me.

Xiao Douzi?

Why would you two be here?

Today is Attire Expert An's death anniversary.

Then are you really related to Attire Expert An?

-Qiniang, please listen to me.
-Qiniang!

Did you find something?

You two, hurry and run away. I'll diver my teacher.

Okay.

Qiniang. Did you find anything inside?

I searched the insides and outsides carefully, afraid that I would leave something out.

But I still didn't find anything.

Master, honoring the dead secretly in the palace is not uncommon.

What happened today, maybe it's just a coincidence.

But today is the anniversary of An Shi's death.

And that Hu-bread is her favorite food when she's alive.

I don't believe it. How could there be such a coincidence?

Xiao Douzi! It must be Xiao Douzi.

Teacher, Xiao Douzi is still so young.

But An Shi already passed away for many years.

How could he learn embroidery from An Shi?

Maybe when Madam An was alive,

she left some book on embroidery.

And Xiao Douzi found it.

That's how he could have such prodigal embroidery skills.

That's right. There's also the golden needle representing the "Number one needle in the world".

Maybe, they're in Xiao Douzi's hands.

Right, Xiao Douzi.

You- You're so smart.

You definitely already guessed that my mother

is the An Shi Attire Expert Zhuo talked about earlier.

I told you that someone killed my mother

and wanted to steal my mother's precious items.

That person is Zhuo Jinniang.

Zhuo Jinniang was jealous of my mother's embroidery skills and wanted to steal

the golden needle that represents her status as "Number one needle in the world".

So she's been looking for me all these years.

Do you know how much in danger you are.

I left my mother's golden needle and book

with someone who saved my life.

Though I don't know his name or where he lives,

but I will definitely be able to find him and get my mother's gems back.

Right now, Zhuo Jinniang cannot find the book or the needle from me.

So she can't confirm my identity.

Even if Attire Expert Zhuo hasn't confirmed your identity, this doesn't eliminate her suspicion towards you.

This will only be more dangerous.

Yu'er, I'll send you out of the palace, to somewhere safe.

No.

I want to stay in the palace. I want to avenge my mother.

I need to clear my mother's name.

If I can't do this, I will not leave the palace.

Teacher, didn't we already search his room last time?

Last time we were looking for clothes, this time we are looking for sewing supplies.

Is finding clothes and finding a needle the same?

Anywhere that can hid a needle,

we cannot miss it. Understand?!

Yes.

Then, teacher, if we really find the Golden Needle here at Xiao Douzi's place,

what do you plan to do?

If we really find the Golden Needle,

it means that Xiao Douzi is An Shi's successor.

If he didn't come to Bureau of Imperial Attire to look for trouble,

then he came to fight the "Number One Needle in the World" title.

No matter which one it is, she must die!

Teacher, I've already finished searching that side.

I haven't found any Golden Needle.

Did you think I would let Xiao Douzi go if I can't find the Golden Needle?

As long as there's one day that I can't find the Golden Needle,

Xiao Douzi is the most suspicious.

If Xiao Douzi is An Shi's disciple,

then he'll be my archenemy in the future.

I am An Shi's only disciple! There will always only be me!

If I am soft-hearted now and let him go,

it will be planting the seed of disaster for my future. Understand?

I understand.

Hurry and search! Why are you still staring?

Xiao Douzi, what did you do last night?

I have asked you to sew the pillowcase for Consort Yang, have you finished?

Reply to Attire Expert Zhuo, I stayed up last night, I have already finished.

Where's the pillowcase? Bring it over and let me see.

The pillowcase is at Qiniang's.

I asked you to embroider the pillowcase. Why would it be with Qiniang?

This pillowcase is sewn for Consort Yang.

After I finished, I didn't dare to send it myself.

So I gave the finished pillowcase to Qiniang.

so that Attire Expert Zhuo can decide.

Teacher, the pillowcase is finished.

Here. Hurry and sent it to Consort Yang then.

Yes, I'll get going now.

It is a success! The pillowcase I sew finally is kept a secret from Teacher.

Xiao Douzi, it is thanks to your great teachings.

I should thank you.

Last night, thanks to you.

Xiao Douzi, come out with me for a bit.

I have something to ask you.

Xiao Douzi, tell me the truth,

are you Attire Expert An's successor after all?

That's right. My skills indeed stem from Attire Expert An.

The skills I have taught you is Attire Expert An unique skills.

Then that means that then, Attire Expert An did keep a secret book.

Is the golden needle also in your hands?

Don't worry, I don't mean to know your secret.

It's that teacher already has suspicions about you.

Just now, she has looked everywhere in your room.

She wants to find the secret book and the Golden Needle.

Don't worry, Qiniang, I don't have that Golden Needle.

As for the secret book, I have already lost it.

Now, Attire Expert An's embroidery techniques are all inside my head.

If Attire Expert Zhuo wants to find it, she won't be able to.

Teacher is always suspicious.

Even if she doesn't find the Golden Needle, she will suspect

that you hid it.

She won't eliminate her wariness towards you.

Xiao Douzi, being at Bureau of Imperial Attire, you will be in great danger.

You should quickly think of a way to leave this place.

Thank you for your reminder. But I cannot leave.

Other than Bureau of Imperial Attire, I won't go anywhere else.

You- Why are you so stubborn?

Female Officer Qiniang.

I don't mean to startle you,

I don't have any evil intentions. Can we talk?

I know that you are Physician Dou's trusted friend.

Actually, you didn't know that Physician Dou and I...

We are also good friends.

I just knew, today that she is Attire Expert An's descendant.

Everything that she has taught me is Attire Expert An's unique skill.

Such precious unique sewing skills,

Physician Dou has unreservedly taught me.

Her kindness,

I won't let her down.

Imperial Guard Leader, you can rest assured. About Physician Dou's secrets,

I won't tell Teacher.

You stand firm between good and evil, thank you on behalf of Physician Dou.

But even if I don't tell her,

my Teacher is already suspicious of Dou.

She is in a very dangerous situation now.

You should confront her to leave Bureau of Imperial Attire.

I have, but she doesn't wish to leave.

So, I risked to come see you.

I have a plan that can help her escape the danger.

I wonder if you are willing to help me to help Physician Dou?

I'm willing!

It's just that, this plan must be kept secret from her.

Are you able to do that?

If I can help Physician Dou avoid danger, I won't tell him then.

Even if she hates you after,

are you still willing?

I don't know

what plan is it that you are talking about?

If you don't agree, I cannot say.

Okay. As long as it can help him.

I'm willing.

Eunuch Sun.

I risked to come today,

because I want to ask you for a favor.

I don't like socializing with people.

I am also not someone warm-hearted.

It's better if you keep your mouth closed.

The person I'm helping is Liuli.

Eunuch Sun, do you not want to listen?

Come, come.

Come, take a look, take a look!

[Xingyu Silk Fabrics Store]

You don't need to be nervous.

This shopkeeper doesn't know the truth.

So if Attire Expert Zhuo wants to investigate this case, there won't be anything.

I think this orange one is pretty nice. I would like these two.

Okay, here.

I thought you would come after some time.

I didn't think you'd be here so early.

Last time when I went shopping, I forgot to buy something.

So I can only come again.

You have came on time, there was someone who asked about you yesterday.

Inquire about me?

That Buddhist Master heard that the female officer from the Bureau of Imperial Attire in the palace

often comes to my store to make purchases, so she came here.

They said someone is ill and needs a large sum of money to save them.

So they were willing to part with a cherished item and asked the Buddhist Master to sell their inherited treasure.

This item is a treasure, but others don't recognize why it is precious, so it hasn't fetched a good price.

Only people who work at Bureau of Imperial Attire,

knows it is a valuable item.

Then you are saying

Is it truly the Golden Needle?!

Yes, exactly, the person is talking about the Golden Needle.

He even gave the shopkeeper his address.

It is only that I came to report to you in a hurry,

I didn't have time to investigate.

Okay, good.

Great.

Yue'er.

How come it's you? It was Qiniang who asked me to come here.

She told me she had something important to give me.

It was me who asked Qiniang to call you out.

I do have something important to give you.

What is it?

This- Why is this in your hands?

-Unless, you are-
-Exactly.

I am the person who brought you out of Wu Manor.

You are the person that saved me 11 years ago.

Thank you.

Thank you for keeping it for me for 11 years.

Do you know how important these are to me?

This is my mother's treasure, and also my most precious thing.

Although I want to find it, I was thinking one day

I might be able to find it.

But I really never thought...

I never thought this day would come so soon.

This is not right.

Golden needle... There should be

a golden needle that is bestowed by His Majesty to symbolize my mother's title as Number One Needle in the World.

Have you seen it?

Don't look for it anymore.

The golden needle isn't in there.

Where is the golden needle? Where is it?

Those years ago... I know I put the needle in there.

Liuli,

don't be impatient yet. Hear my explanation first.

Liuli? How do you know my real name?

Foster Father said

that you secretly investigated my mother's case.

This means...

that you knew my identity and secret long before?

That's right. I already knew.

I also guessed

that your mother died because of a false charge.

You risked death to go to work in the Bureau of Imperial Attire.

It's also to revenge against Zhuo Jinniang.

As soon as I found out about your identity, I wanted to immediately give you the golden needle and the journal.

But that day, I happened to see Zhuo Jinniang searching through your room.

So I changed my plan.

Because as soon as Attire Expert Zhuo finds out that you are related to An Shi,

these items

will bring you danger.

Just now, you spoke of the Golden Needle. This means...

The Golden Needle wasn't lost, right?

The Golden Needle indeed used to be with me.

By now, Attire Expert Zhuo must have already gotten the Golden Needle.

What are you saying?

For your safety,

it's best to temporarily give up the golden needle for now.

I am very sorry. You came late.

I'm not selling the golden needle anymore.

What? Buddhist Master, are you fooling me?

How dare I fool a female palace official?

Previously, I was entrusted by the owner of the golden needle

to sell the needle for her to treat her illness. I went to a few pawn shops.

They all said that the Golden Needle is worth only a few gold coins.

It couldn't be sold for much, and so wouldn't get enough money to treat illness.

Only then did the owner of the Golen Needle ask me to go into the palace to find you two.

She said only the people in the Bureau of Imperial Attire would know the origin of the golden needle,

and it could be sold for enough money to help treat her illness.

Unexpectedly, before you came,

she already died of her illness.

I'm telling you.

His Majesty bestowed it to my teacher, Madam An.

It's a token that represents Number One Needle in the World.

Today,

it's good if you give me

this needle. Otherwise,

You and your tiny Buddhist shrine

will never see peace.

Let me go!

I don't want to hear you explain. Since chose to come back into the palace to get revenge,

I would not be afraid of death.

How can I be so concerned about my safety

that I give Mother's golden needle to her enemy that killed her?

Compared to killing me, this hurts me more!

Liuli! Calm down and think about it.

The golden needle is an object.

You are weak by yourself inside the Bureau of Imperial Attire.

Once Zhuo Jinniang decides to kill you, even if Crown Prince and Talented Lady Wu want to save you, they would be too far away to help.

If you die, how will you avenge your mother?

How will your mother's grievance be exonerated?

I don't want to hear your big principles.

Those years ago, in order to save me,

Mother gave up her last hope to live.

And I?

In order to keep the hope to stay alive, I have to sell Mother's token

and sell her diginity.

To live under such shame, you might as well kill me.

I can't let Attire Expert Zhuo find mother's Golden Needle.

- No!
- Liuli, calm down.
- Let me go!

Liuli!

I'm sorry, Liuli. If there were a better way,

I wouldn't want to see you in so much pain.

You can hate me.

But you must live on.

As long as you live,

there will be hope.

[Liuli's Memorial Tablet]

[Liuli's Memorial Tablet]

[Liuli's Memorial Tablet]

[Liuli's Memorial Tablet]

Yes.

Yes.

This is it! I've found it.

It is the one!

I've looked for you for ten years.

This is the golden needle that represents the status of Number One Needle in the World.

I've finally found it!

It should be mine. It's finally mine.

Sooner or later, it is mine.

That Buddhist Master can be trusted.

I saved her a life a few years ago, so she will do her utmost to help us.

Once this is over, I will send the Buddhist Master away from this troublesome land

to guarantee her safety.

Buddhist Master,

what is your relationship with this Liuli

that you are so considerate for her

and set up a memorial table for her?

Eleven years ago, in the early morning,

I opened the shrine's door

and saw a young girl lying sick in front of the door.

She was covered in blood, with high fever that wouldn't recede, and she was unconscious.

I pitied her and kept her in the shrine to let her get better from her illness.

This child said her name was Liuli.

She survived by climing out of a mound of dead bodies.

When I asked more, she wouldn't say a word.

Most of the time through these years, she was in bed

and stayed alive by drinking medicinal soup.

You've seen it too. My shrine is impoverished.

I really didn't have money to buy more medicine.

Liuli gave me the golden needle and said it was a treasure that could be exchanged for money to treat her illness.

But before the golden needole could be sold,

she already passed away.

Buddhist Master, among Liuli's remining items,

did you see a journal of dressmaking secrets?
