00:14:07,200 --> 00:14:09,240
Bring some food
195
00:14:09,440 --> 00:14:11,880
to the servants sent by the main branch
196
00:14:11,920 --> 00:14:14,400
to search for her remains by the river.
197
00:14:14,680 --> 00:14:16,600
Then, relay a message.
198
00:14:17,000 --> 00:14:18,480
Take a break if they need to.
199
00:14:18,680 --> 00:14:20,480
Her body will show up sooner or later.
200
00:14:22,440 --> 00:14:23,760
Any updates from the troupe?
201
00:14:24,680 --> 00:14:25,320
Aunt Xiao?
202
00:14:27,440 --> 00:14:29,440
[Nanny Li,
the steward of the second branch]
203
00:14:29,440 --> 00:14:31,040
[Count of Dongping's Mansion]
It's Miss Si!
204
00:14:31,600 --> 00:14:32,280
[Xiao Shi, Madam Xiao]
205
00:14:32,680 --> 00:14:33,040
[Wife of Jiang Ancheng's younger brother]
Madam!
206
00:14:36,440 --> 00:14:37,440
Oh My!
207
00:14:37,720 --> 00:14:38,520
What...
208
00:14:40,080 --> 00:14:40,600
What...
209
00:14:41,360 --> 00:14:43,520
Miss Si, you're alive.
210
00:14:43,840 --> 00:14:44,760
Yes, I am.
211
00:14:45,360 --> 00:14:46,520
Sorry to disappoint you.
212
00:15:01,120 --> 00:15:02,480
Si, I'm glad you made it back.
213
00:15:02,560 --> 00:15:03,760
We thought the worst
214
00:15:03,840 --> 00:15:05,240
had happened to you.
215
00:15:06,160 --> 00:15:07,520
Your father is leading his men
216
00:15:07,560 --> 00:15:08,920
on a search for you by the river.
217
00:15:09,520 --> 00:15:10,240
Enough
218
00:15:10,280 --> 00:15:11,000
about that.
219
00:15:11,120 --> 00:15:13,080
I couldn't sleep last night.
220
00:15:13,160 --> 00:15:14,400
I bet you were so thrilled
221
00:15:14,440 --> 00:15:15,760
that you had trouble sleeping.
222
00:15:20,360 --> 00:15:21,520
Oh heavens!
223
00:15:21,560 --> 00:15:22,360
How could you think
224
00:15:22,360 --> 00:15:23,640
so badly of me?
225
00:15:23,680 --> 00:15:24,960
When chaos reigns,
226
00:15:25,040 --> 00:15:26,360
I will be their anchor.
227
00:15:26,440 --> 00:15:28,800
Your father is no good
now that he is a drunkard.
228
00:15:29,000 --> 00:15:29,600
And your brother
229
00:15:29,600 --> 00:15:31,280
is doing nothing with his life.
230
00:15:31,400 --> 00:15:32,040
Your mother died
231
00:15:32,040 --> 00:15:33,360
as soon as you were born.
232
00:15:33,400 --> 00:15:34,880
This is a matter of life and death.
233
00:15:34,920 --> 00:15:36,000
It's up to me
234
00:15:36,000 --> 00:15:37,160
to take care of everything.
235
00:15:39,560 --> 00:15:41,280
A free-loader who contributes nothing.
236
00:15:42,200 --> 00:15:43,520
A jinx who brought death
237
00:15:43,520 --> 00:15:44,280
to her own mother.
238
00:15:44,640 --> 00:15:46,440
Children raised without a mother
239
00:15:46,520 --> 00:15:47,920
should learn some manners
240
00:15:47,960 --> 00:15:48,880
because you have none!
241
00:15:51,840 --> 00:15:52,200
Madam!
242
00:15:52,560 --> 00:15:52,920
It's alright.
243
00:15:56,240 --> 00:15:57,160
We didn't lose any money.
244
00:15:57,480 --> 00:15:59,320
There was an error in the ledger.
245
00:15:59,560 --> 00:16:00,760
It's still necessary to beat
246
00:16:00,760 --> 00:16:01,640
some sense into them.
247
00:16:02,000 --> 00:16:03,320
They disrespected me.
248
00:16:03,880 --> 00:16:05,000
Let them kneel there.
249
00:16:05,560 --> 00:16:06,320
They mustn't get up.
250
00:16:12,640 --> 00:16:13,200
Aunt Xiao.
251
00:16:13,760 --> 00:16:15,000
There was a bug on your face!
252
00:16:15,640 --> 00:16:16,520
Did it sting you?
253
00:16:18,800 --> 00:16:19,080
I...
254
00:16:20,960 --> 00:16:22,360
Maybe try your other hand next time.
255
00:16:22,760 --> 00:16:23,000
How dare...
256
00:16:25,760 --> 00:16:26,960
The couplets,
257
00:16:27,400 --> 00:16:28,360
the list of songs,
258
00:16:28,560 --> 00:16:29,680
and the coffin
259
00:16:30,040 --> 00:16:31,240
were all tailored to your taste, no?
260
00:16:31,960 --> 00:16:33,400
You know I bring misfortune.
261
00:16:33,920 --> 00:16:35,640
It's wise to stay away from me.
262
00:16:35,960 --> 00:16:37,280
You wouldn't want to be struck
263
00:16:37,640 --> 00:16:38,520
with any misfortune.
264
00:16:39,200 --> 00:16:40,800
However, if that day ever comes,
265
00:16:41,560 --> 00:16:43,080
I'll put all of your favorite items
266
00:16:43,600 --> 00:16:44,680
to good use.
267
00:16:45,560 --> 00:16:46,640
I won't miss anything.
268
00:16:47,840 --> 00:16:48,320
Madam!
269
00:16:55,040 --> 00:16:55,680
Miss Si!
270
00:16:59,520 --> 00:17:00,000
Aman.
271
00:17:00,720 --> 00:17:01,520
[Aman, Jiang Si's maid]
I'm back.
272
00:17:02,120 --> 00:17:02,560
I've made it back.
273
00:17:05,160 --> 00:17:06,640
Let's go find my father.
274
00:17:11,040 --> 00:17:13,000
That's Jiang Si!
275
00:17:13,720 --> 00:17:14,680
Stop staring!
276
00:17:14,760 --> 00:17:16,160
Remove everything!
277
00:17:16,520 --> 00:17:17,079
Take them down!
278
00:17:25,560 --> 00:17:26,440
His Lordship and Mr. Zhan
279
00:17:26,480 --> 00:17:27,760
have been waiting
280
00:17:27,880 --> 00:17:28,920
by the Jinshui River.
281
00:17:29,079 --> 00:17:30,640
You were collecting jars and bottles.
282
00:17:30,720 --> 00:17:31,640
What are those for?
283
00:17:32,000 --> 00:17:32,960
His Lordship led the servants
284
00:17:33,000 --> 00:17:33,800
on a search for you.
285
00:17:33,920 --> 00:17:35,240
He hired everyone in Ling'an
286
00:17:35,280 --> 00:17:36,240
who could swim.
287
00:17:36,480 --> 00:17:38,200
He said he'd give everything he had
288
00:17:38,240 --> 00:17:39,319
to find you.
289
00:17:39,560 --> 00:17:40,440
But Madam Xiao
290
00:17:40,480 --> 00:17:41,680
controls the money.
291
00:17:41,720 --> 00:17:43,080
She wouldn't spare anything.
292
00:17:43,280 --> 00:17:44,560
Mr. Zhan asked me to come back
293
00:17:44,720 --> 00:17:46,280
and pawn some valuable items.
294
00:17:46,840 --> 00:17:48,440
Every coin counts at this point.
295
00:17:52,240 --> 00:17:53,160
Nothing over here!
296
00:17:53,600 --> 00:17:54,280
Anything over there?
297
00:17:54,680 --> 00:17:55,280
Let's look.
298
00:17:55,640 --> 00:17:57,240
Anything on the east side of the bridge?
299
00:17:57,680 --> 00:17:58,320
Nothing!
300
00:17:58,560 --> 00:17:59,400
Search the water!
301
00:17:59,800 --> 00:18:01,440
My Lord, my men and I
have been searching
302
00:18:01,520 --> 00:18:02,320
for a day.
303
00:18:02,880 --> 00:18:05,000
There has been no sign of your daughter.
304
00:18:05,200 --> 00:18:05,840
Should we continue?
305
00:18:06,000 --> 00:18:07,080
Absolutely.
306
00:18:07,600 --> 00:18:08,800
[Jiang Ancheng, Count of Dongping]
I'll keep searching
307
00:18:08,880 --> 00:18:10,440
[Jiang Zhan, Jiang Si's elder brother]
even if it takes a lifetime!
308
00:18:10,720 --> 00:18:11,280
You only gave us
309
00:18:11,320 --> 00:18:12,520
Ten guan of money.
310
00:18:12,880 --> 00:18:14,480
It's not enough.
311
00:18:19,600 --> 00:18:20,040
Father.
312
00:18:20,760 --> 00:18:21,840
This is the last stuff
313
00:18:21,840 --> 00:18:22,680
my mother left for you!
314
00:18:23,120 --> 00:18:24,080
This is
315
00:18:24,080 --> 00:18:25,200
the only valuable thing I have left.
316
00:18:26,000 --> 00:18:27,480
I can help you with the money.
317
00:18:29,200 --> 00:18:29,720
Sir,
318
00:18:31,120 --> 00:18:33,560
I have collections of paintings
and calligraphy at home.
319
00:18:33,600 --> 00:18:34,880
They are worth a considerable sum.
320
00:18:35,360 --> 00:18:36,840
When the job is done,
321
00:18:37,160 --> 00:18:38,760
you may come with me to my house
322
00:18:38,800 --> 00:18:39,880
and collect them.
323
00:18:40,200 --> 00:18:42,160
Please don't give up now.
324
00:18:42,400 --> 00:18:43,480
Please.
325
00:18:43,960 --> 00:18:45,160
I beg of you!
326
00:18:45,640 --> 00:18:47,360
Okay, I'll consider this
an act of kindness
327
00:18:47,400 --> 00:18:48,160
and help you.
328
00:18:48,520 --> 00:18:49,280
Much appreciated.
329
00:18:49,720 --> 00:18:50,880
I'm very grateful.
330
00:18:51,120 --> 00:18:52,200
Thanks, gentlemen.
331
00:19:08,360 --> 00:19:09,120
Father!
332
00:19:11,160 --> 00:19:12,040
Zhan!
333
00:19:14,040 --> 00:19:14,680
Father!
334
00:19:18,680 --> 00:19:19,120
Father.
335
00:19:20,400 --> 00:19:21,200
I think I heard Si
336
00:19:21,240 --> 00:19:22,760
calling my name.
337
00:19:24,840 --> 00:19:27,120
Wouldn't that be great?
338
00:19:30,160 --> 00:19:30,920
I did it too.
339
00:19:32,400 --> 00:19:33,400
My mind is fuzzy.
340
00:19:34,080 --> 00:19:36,000
I heard Si calling for me.
341
00:19:41,600 --> 00:19:42,400
Zhan!
342
00:19:46,000 --> 00:19:46,880
Zhan!
343
00:19:48,160 --> 00:19:48,840
Father!
344
00:19:50,240 --> 00:19:51,640
I think I saw her.
345
00:19:52,720 --> 00:19:54,080
I see her
346
00:19:54,120 --> 00:19:56,000
come and go before my eyes.
347
00:19:56,320 --> 00:19:58,440
Zhan! I'm over here!
348
00:19:58,860 --> 00:19:59,490
Si!
349
00:19:59,800 --> 00:20:01,360
When your mother passed away,
350
00:20:02,320 --> 00:20:03,720
I saw her a lot too.
351
00:20:04,040 --> 00:20:04,920
Si!
352
00:20:05,560 --> 00:20:06,320
Zhan!
353
00:20:07,080 --> 00:20:07,720
Si!
354
00:20:07,760 --> 00:20:09,880
I failed to keep her safe.
355
00:20:09,920 --> 00:20:12,440
Father, it's her! Si is here!
356
00:20:12,560 --> 00:20:14,240
[Ji, Jiang Zhan's servant]
My Lord, it's really her!
357
00:20:18,960 --> 00:20:19,640
Father!
358
00:20:22,560 --> 00:20:23,160
Si!
359
00:20:24,640 --> 00:20:25,800
Is that really you?
360
00:20:26,800 --> 00:20:27,320
Father!
361
00:20:31,840 --> 00:20:32,760
Si!
362
00:20:33,080 --> 00:20:33,520
Father!
363
00:20:33,560 --> 00:20:34,080
Si!
364
00:20:34,360 --> 00:20:35,960
My dear daughter!
365
00:20:38,160 --> 00:20:39,240
Si!
366
00:20:39,320 --> 00:20:40,680
Father, I'm alright.
367
00:20:41,000 --> 00:20:43,240
I'm so glad you're safe.
368
00:20:43,440 --> 00:20:44,920
Si, you didn't fall into the river?
369
00:20:44,960 --> 00:20:45,560
Were you hurt?
370
00:20:45,600 --> 00:20:46,640
I'm alright, Father.
371
00:20:46,800 --> 00:20:48,360
I thought we'd never see you again.
372
00:20:48,880 --> 00:20:50,400
Zhan, promise me
373
00:20:50,840 --> 00:20:51,360
you will never
374
00:20:51,560 --> 00:20:53,040
come near the Jinshui River again.
375
00:20:53,080 --> 00:20:53,880
I won't.
376
00:20:54,040 --> 00:20:54,360
Wait.
377
00:20:54,600 --> 00:20:55,960
Don't go near any river.
378
00:20:56,000 --> 00:20:57,240
I won't.
379
00:20:57,600 --> 00:20:59,240
Father, promise me
380
00:20:59,520 --> 00:21:00,080
you'll never
381
00:21:00,280 --> 00:21:01,760
work for the Directorate of Astronomy.
382
00:21:01,880 --> 00:21:02,400
Please.
383
00:21:02,600 --> 00:21:03,240
You have my word.
384
00:21:03,280 --> 00:21:04,520
You must never go back there.
385
00:21:04,640 --> 00:21:05,400
I promise you.
386
00:21:05,960 --> 00:21:06,960
From now on,
387
00:21:07,000 --> 00:21:09,000
I'll stay home and spend my time
388
00:21:09,200 --> 00:21:10,680
with my precious daughter.
389
00:21:57,770 --> 00:21:59,100
Chief, we checked Jiang Si's background.
390
00:21:59,820 --> 00:22:00,860
She is the fourth daughter
391
00:22:00,860 --> 00:22:01,450
of Count of Dongping.
392
00:22:01,820 --> 00:22:03,060
Her father is Jiang Ancheng.
393
00:22:03,380 --> 00:22:04,820
Her mother's father
was Lingshui's richest man.
394
00:22:05,100 --> 00:22:05,970
Jiang Si's mother died
395
00:22:06,100 --> 00:22:07,060
after her birth.
396
00:22:07,820 --> 00:22:08,580
The Count even made
397
00:22:08,580 --> 00:22:09,450
a huge fuss over it.
398
00:22:09,690 --> 00:22:10,340
He was stripped
399
00:22:10,420 --> 00:22:11,580
of his position and title.
400
00:22:11,620 --> 00:22:12,730
He's been listless ever since.
401
00:22:13,100 --> 00:22:13,770
Therefore,
402
00:22:14,170 --> 00:22:15,140
people are saying
403
00:22:15,210 --> 00:22:16,580
Jiang Si is actually...
404
00:22:19,140 --> 00:22:19,580
What is it?
405
00:22:25,010 --> 00:22:25,450
Have some tea.
406
00:22:26,300 --> 00:22:27,580
They say she is a jinx,
407
00:22:28,170 --> 00:22:29,530
that she brought death to her mother
408
00:22:29,620 --> 00:22:31,100
and caused the family's downfall.
409
00:22:32,340 --> 00:22:32,820
Ridiculous.
410
00:22:34,490 --> 00:22:35,820
People love to blame their misfortune
411
00:22:36,210 --> 00:22:37,580
on the innocent.
412
00:22:38,250 --> 00:22:38,770
What else?
413
00:22:40,450 --> 00:22:41,580
The Count of Dongping's Mansion
414
00:22:41,620 --> 00:22:42,420
is now controlled
415
00:22:42,420 --> 00:22:43,420
by Madam Xiao of the second branch.
416
00:22:43,620 --> 00:22:45,170
Seeing the family falling apart,
417
00:22:45,210 --> 00:22:46,250
she made arrangements
418
00:22:46,300 --> 00:22:47,450
for Jiang Si to be engaged.
419
00:22:47,970 --> 00:22:49,100
It was the third son
420
00:22:49,140 --> 00:22:50,210
of the Duke of Anguo, Ji Chongyi.
421
00:22:50,660 --> 00:22:52,300
The wedding
is on the 8th day of next month.
422
00:22:52,930 --> 00:22:53,530
What?
423
00:22:54,660 --> 00:22:55,490
Annulling the engagement?
424
00:22:56,010 --> 00:22:56,450
Ji Chongyi
425
00:22:56,450 --> 00:22:57,770
was cheating on me.
426
00:22:58,210 --> 00:22:59,250
He lied to me
427
00:22:59,490 --> 00:23:00,820
and tried to drown me.
428
00:23:01,340 --> 00:23:01,970
How could I ever
429
00:23:02,060 --> 00:23:03,140
marry such a villain?
430
00:23:03,420 --> 00:23:05,140
Si is right.
431
00:23:05,380 --> 00:23:07,620
It was merely a close call.
432
00:23:07,970 --> 00:23:09,970
Mr. Chongyi had an affair.
433
00:23:10,340 --> 00:23:12,140
Your father is upset,
434
00:23:12,690 --> 00:23:14,690
but so am I.
435
00:23:14,860 --> 00:23:17,690
But his father is the Duke of Anguo.
436
00:23:18,010 --> 00:23:19,140
By marrying him,
437
00:23:19,450 --> 00:23:20,690
Si becomes the principal wife.
438
00:23:20,820 --> 00:23:21,930
Nothing can change my mind.
439
00:23:23,530 --> 00:23:24,060
Si.
440
00:23:24,930 --> 00:23:25,730
I understand
441
00:23:26,210 --> 00:23:27,100
it is unfair to you.
442
00:23:27,730 --> 00:23:28,530
But are you aware of
443
00:23:28,690 --> 00:23:30,300
how much effort I've put into
444
00:23:30,450 --> 00:23:32,620
making this marriage happen?
445
00:23:32,820 --> 00:23:34,300
I went through a lot of trouble
446
00:23:34,340 --> 00:23:35,930
to find you a powerful family.
447
00:23:36,170 --> 00:23:37,450
All the maidens in Ling'an
448
00:23:37,730 --> 00:23:38,860
are envious of you.
449
00:23:38,970 --> 00:23:40,170
Why not give Jiang Pei
450
00:23:40,530 --> 00:23:41,530
this great honor?
451
00:23:42,730 --> 00:23:43,210
Indeed.
452
00:23:46,450 --> 00:23:48,340
You and your brother just love
arguing with me.
453
00:23:49,060 --> 00:23:49,730
You'd love
454
00:23:49,730 --> 00:23:50,730
to paint a bad light on me.
455
00:23:51,140 --> 00:23:52,730
They mean you no harm.
456
00:23:53,010 --> 00:23:53,620
Ancheng.
457
00:23:53,770 --> 00:23:54,530
Si has always
458
00:23:54,660 --> 00:23:56,820
been nice and obedient.
459
00:23:57,380 --> 00:23:58,170
How did she
460
00:23:58,210 --> 00:23:59,820
lose her only redeeming quality
461
00:24:00,010 --> 00:24:01,060
after falling into
462
00:24:01,100 --> 00:24:01,860
the Jinshui River?
463
00:24:01,930 --> 00:24:02,420
Xiao.
464
00:24:03,100 --> 00:24:05,100
It's rude of you to say that.
465
00:24:05,170 --> 00:24:06,250
I may sound rude,
466
00:24:06,620 --> 00:24:08,340
but I spoke the truth.
467
00:24:08,730 --> 00:24:09,860
Don't you want to marry her
468
00:24:09,860 --> 00:24:10,930
into a prominent family?
469
00:24:11,100 --> 00:24:11,820
Your wife
470
00:24:11,820 --> 00:24:13,250
would want that for her daughter.
471
00:24:13,450 --> 00:24:14,820
If she was watching from heaven,
472
00:24:14,930 --> 00:24:17,140
she'd want her daughter to marry
the Duke of Anguo's son.
473
00:24:17,300 --> 00:24:18,820
Yes or no? Be quick with it.
474
00:24:18,820 --> 00:24:19,660
A firm no.
475
00:24:21,620 --> 00:24:23,010
If your mother was alive,
476
00:24:23,060 --> 00:24:24,060
she'd agree with me.
477
00:24:24,420 --> 00:24:25,210
We want the children
478
00:24:25,250 --> 00:24:26,300
to live a peaceful life.
479
00:24:30,170 --> 00:24:33,100
Ancheng, I've been gracious to you.
480
00:24:33,530 --> 00:24:35,620
Marrying or not is not up to you.
481
00:24:36,170 --> 00:24:37,490
It's not up to me, either.
482
00:24:38,100 --> 00:24:40,490
When Mother is back,
483
00:24:40,620 --> 00:24:42,170
we'll let her decide!
484
00:24:43,170 --> 00:24:44,140

This time,
504
00:26:24,380 --> 00:26:24,970
I must not
505
00:26:24,970 --> 00:26:26,340

Oh, right. Si.
522
00:26:59,100 --> 00:26:59,930
Who saved you
523
00:26:59,930 --> 00:27:00,970
after you fell into the water?
524
00:27:03,170 --> 00:27:04,690
A passerby
525
00:27:04,770 --> 00:27:05,340
saved me.
526
00:27:07,010 --> 00:27:07,860
We should
527
00:27:08,210 --> 00:27:10,010
show our gratitude someday.
528
00:27:10,140 --> 00:27:10,660
Indeed.
529
00:27:11,340 --> 00:27:12,140
Never mind, Father.
530
00:27:13,930 --> 00:27:15,530
I didn't ask for his name.
531
00:27:15,820 --> 00:27:18,170
I doubt we can find him again.
532
00:27:18,820 --> 00:27:21,770
How could you forget to ask the name
533
00:27:21,820 --> 00:27:22,970
of your life savior?
534
00:27:23,170 --> 00:27:23,620
You are...

Father.
536
00:27:24,380 --> 00:27:26,100
Si must have been traumatized.
537
00:27:26,970 --> 00:27:27,420
Si.
538
00:27:28,820 --> 00:27:29,580
Be honest with me.
539
00:27:30,380 --> 00:27:33,060
Do you really want
to annul the engagement?
540
00:27:33,380 --> 00:27:33,860
Father.
541
00:27:34,250 --> 00:27:36,340
Ji Chongyi is already
in love with someone else,
542
00:27:36,580 --> 00:27:37,770
and betrayed his promise to me.
543
00:27:38,340 --> 00:27:38,860
Besides,
544
00:27:39,210 --> 00:27:40,380
he has not the slightest respect
545
00:27:40,690 --> 00:27:42,060
for this engagement.
546
00:27:42,380 --> 00:27:43,970
We shouldn't embarrass ourselves.
547
00:27:44,530 --> 00:27:45,690
Otherwise, our life would be
548
00:27:46,210 --> 00:27:47,380
even more trying.
549
00:27:48,010 --> 00:27:49,060
We'll call it off, then.
550
00:27:49,970 --> 00:27:50,930
That cursed two-timer
551
00:27:50,970 --> 00:27:52,300
is not worthy of you.
552
00:27:53,140 --> 00:27:53,490
Si.
553
00:27:54,170 --> 00:27:55,250

554
00:27:56,210 --> 00:27:57,170
you'll have my support.
555
00:27:57,660 --> 00:27:59,660
I will go to Duke of Anguo's Mansion
556
00:27:59,730 --> 00:28:01,170
to return the gifts.
557
00:28:11,300 --> 00:28:13,730

558
00:28:13,930 --> 00:28:14,380
Yes.

These are mine,
574
00:28:41,450 --> 00:28:43,210
no matter who is married to him.
575
00:28:45,170 --> 00:28:46,170
Pei,
576
00:28:46,420 --> 00:28:46,930
do not act as though
577
00:28:46,930 --> 00:28:48,620
you've never seen luxuries.
578
00:28:49,060 --> 00:28:50,490
To marry a rich husband,
579
00:28:50,620 --> 00:28:52,420
you must refine
every aspect of yourself.
580
00:28:52,930 --> 00:28:53,970
It's no wonder Jiang Si
581
00:28:54,060 --> 00:28:55,170
is the superior one.
582
00:28:58,860 --> 00:28:59,420
Yes.
583
00:29:00,100 --> 00:29:01,490
I'll keep your wisdom in mind.
584
00:29:03,860 --> 00:29:04,860
However,
585
00:29:05,100 --> 00:29:05,820
don't you think
586
00:29:05,820 --> 00:29:07,530
ever since Si fell into the river,
587
00:29:07,660 --> 00:29:08,970
she's been a different person?
588
00:29:09,250 --> 00:29:10,420
She was never bold enough
589
00:29:10,490 --> 00:29:11,210
to argue with you.
590
00:29:11,300 --> 00:29:12,420
She is but a girl
591
00:29:12,490 --> 00:29:13,820
and not a threat.
592
00:29:14,170 --> 00:29:14,970
Forget about her.
593
00:29:15,690 --> 00:29:16,690
Nanny Li.
594
00:29:16,970 --> 00:29:18,060
I want you to keep these items
595
00:29:18,100 --> 00:29:19,380
somewhere safe.
596
00:29:19,690 --> 00:29:21,300
Let's see how she can annul
the engagement
597
00:29:21,380 --> 00:29:23,690
without returning the gifts.
598
00:29:30,490 --> 00:29:31,490
Father, Si.
599
00:29:33,170 --> 00:29:34,060
I've made up my mind.
600
00:29:35,140 --> 00:29:35,820
The triennial
601
00:29:36,210 --> 00:29:37,140
field examination
602
00:29:37,170 --> 00:29:37,820
is tomorrow.
603
00:29:38,300 --> 00:29:39,340
The three divisions will be there.
604
00:29:39,770 --> 00:29:40,820
If I win the sparring contest,
605
00:29:41,210 --> 00:29:42,860
I should become the Commandant
606
00:29:42,970 --> 00:29:44,100
of the Capital Administration Office.
607
00:29:45,140 --> 00:29:45,690
Then,
608
00:29:46,170 --> 00:29:47,300
you can come with me
609
00:29:47,860 --> 00:29:49,010
and escape Aunt Xiao's tyranny.
610
00:29:53,970 --> 00:29:54,820
Not bad, boy.
611
00:29:56,060 --> 00:29:56,970
That's impressive.
612
00:29:57,820 --> 00:29:58,860
But you mustn't go.
613
00:29:59,770 --> 00:30:00,300
Why not?
614
00:30:00,380 --> 00:30:02,690
You should know by now
you're not a fighter.
615
00:30:02,930 --> 00:30:04,140
An actual sparring contest
616
00:30:04,170 --> 00:30:05,660
is not a child's play.
617
00:30:05,690 --> 00:30:05,930
I...
618
00:30:05,970 --> 00:30:07,660
You might not come back alive
619
00:30:07,690 --> 00:30:08,420
after the contest.
620
00:30:08,450 --> 00:30:08,930
Si?
621
00:30:09,010 --> 00:30:09,770
Father is right.
622
00:30:10,100 --> 00:30:11,530
Zhan, you must never go there.
623
00:30:11,770 --> 00:30:12,660
It sounds too dangerous.
624
00:30:12,690 --> 00:30:13,010
But I...
625
00:30:13,690 --> 00:30:15,140
That settles it.
626
00:30:15,300 --> 00:30:16,770
Do not bring this up again.
627
00:30:19,820 --> 00:30:22,170
Father, why aren't you eating
628
00:30:22,250 --> 00:30:23,140
the chicken feet?
629
00:30:23,250 --> 00:30:24,140
Don't give me that.
630
00:30:24,860 --> 00:30:26,010
Did you even hear
631
00:30:26,060 --> 00:30:26,730
what I told you?
632
00:30:26,770 --> 00:30:28,580
The meat in the middle tastes the best.
633
00:30:28,580 --> 00:30:29,170
Listen up.
634
00:30:29,250 --> 00:30:30,300
If you go there,
635
00:30:30,380 --> 00:30:31,730
I'll break your legs when you're home.
636
00:30:32,140 --> 00:30:33,820
Every epicure loves chicken feet.
637
00:30:33,860 --> 00:30:35,530
It tastes better the more you chew.
638
00:30:35,770 --> 00:30:36,580
Why don't you eat them?
639
00:30:37,490 --> 00:30:38,170
I have a drumstick.
640
00:30:38,690 --> 00:30:40,380
And I only get the chicken feet?
641
00:31:02,060 --> 00:31:04,250
Father, Zhan,
642
00:31:05,170 --> 00:31:06,380
I'm so glad to see both of you
643
00:31:07,730 --> 00:31:08,420
alive.
644
00:31:35,660 --> 00:31:36,300
Thankfully,
645
00:31:36,690 --> 00:31:37,690
it's not too late.

this time, I'll make sure

00:31:43,170 --> 00:31:44,530

Meet General Cui.

[Cao Xingyu, heir apparent to Cao Yong]
I've heard of your heroic deeds.
659

When you work
for the Capital Administration Office,
660
00:32:31,690 --> 00:32:33,730
you will need General Cui's guidance.
661
00:32:34,100 --> 00:32:35,420
I appreciate it, General Cui.
662
00:32:35,770 --> 00:32:37,380
This is the field examination.
663
00:32:37,970 --> 00:32:40,210
There are no taboos and rules
in the sparring match.
664
00:32:40,690 --> 00:32:42,170
When a person falls from the arena,
665

the match ends.

I can win this for sure.

Great!

00:38:46,490 --> 00:38:47,700
and a gentleman of virtues.
766
00:38:48,180 --> 00:38:49,220
A man of his qualities
767
00:38:49,420 --> 00:38:50,820
is needed.
768
00:38:51,700 --> 00:38:52,860
May I know your name?
769
00:38:53,490 --> 00:38:54,420
Are you willing
770
00:38:54,530 --> 00:38:55,820
to be Commandant
of the Capital Administration Office
771
00:38:56,050 --> 00:38:57,490
to protect the city of Ling'an?
772
00:39:03,450 --> 00:39:04,300
My name is Yu Qi.
773
00:39:05,010 --> 00:39:06,930
I came to save a life,
not to land a job.
774
00:39:07,570 --> 00:39:09,220
However, I won't deny interrupting
775
00:39:09,260 --> 00:39:10,220
the examination.
776
00:39:10,700 --> 00:39:12,090
I disrupted the selection.
777
00:39:12,420 --> 00:39:14,090
I am sorry for that.
778
00:39:17,260 --> 00:39:18,820
I am willing to temporarily
hold that position
779
00:39:19,220 --> 00:39:21,010
until you can appoint
someone more suitable.
780
00:39:21,420 --> 00:39:22,180
Well said!
781
00:39:24,340 --> 00:39:25,570
- Yes!
- Yes!
782
00:39:25,780 --> 00:39:27,090
They don't know each other,
783
00:39:27,490 --> 00:39:28,860
but why did Yu Qi save Zhan?
784
00:39:30,130 --> 00:39:31,450
We met in Ling'an, and now he is
785
00:39:32,260 --> 00:39:33,050
the new Commandant.
786
00:39:34,490 --> 00:39:35,220
How will this
787
00:39:36,180 --> 00:39:37,300
change the course of history?
788
00:39:42,570 --> 00:39:43,530
My savior Yu Qi,
789
00:39:44,300 --> 00:39:45,820
you have my salute.
790
00:39:46,010 --> 00:39:46,570
Don't mention it.
791
00:39:47,220 --> 00:39:48,650
Mind the injury.
792
00:39:49,610 --> 00:39:50,180
Mr. Yu,
793
00:39:50,490 --> 00:39:51,820
we're from Count of Dongping's Mansion.
794
00:39:52,220 --> 00:39:52,970
I am Jiang Zhan.
795
00:39:53,820 --> 00:39:54,930
This is my younger sister,
796
00:39:55,420 --> 00:39:56,090
Jiang Si.
797
00:39:58,130 --> 00:39:59,050
Greetings, Miss Jiang.
798
00:40:00,340 --> 00:40:02,090
Where do you live now?
799
00:40:02,380 --> 00:40:03,860
I shall drop by to express my gratitude.
800
00:40:04,860 --> 00:40:06,780
I just arrived in Ling'an.
I've yet to find a place to stay.
801
00:40:07,610 --> 00:40:08,180
You could
802
00:40:08,220 --> 00:40:09,610
stay at our place.
803
00:40:10,420 --> 00:40:10,820
Zhan.
804
00:40:11,650 --> 00:40:12,820
Mr. Yu must have come here
805
00:40:12,860 --> 00:40:14,010
on business.
806
00:40:14,490 --> 00:40:16,220
It's rude to decide so rashly for him.
807
00:40:17,260 --> 00:40:18,090
Pardon me.
808
00:40:18,420 --> 00:40:19,420
It's alright, Miss Jiang.
809
00:40:19,930 --> 00:40:21,340
I am new here.
810
00:40:21,650 --> 00:40:22,570
I wonder where I can
811
00:40:22,610 --> 00:40:23,740
procure a house.
812
00:40:23,820 --> 00:40:25,300
You got the right man.
813
00:40:25,700 --> 00:40:27,180
There is an empty house
814
00:40:27,340 --> 00:40:28,490
next to our residence.
815
00:40:28,570 --> 00:40:29,380
Ling'an has
816
00:40:29,420 --> 00:40:30,740
plenty of vacant houses.
817
00:40:30,820 --> 00:40:31,490
Mr. Yu,
818
00:40:31,570 --> 00:40:33,010
you should check the western suburbs.
819
00:40:33,300 --> 00:40:34,220
If it's too far,
820
00:40:34,380 --> 00:40:35,610
try the southern
821
00:40:35,610 --> 00:40:36,220
market district.
822
00:40:36,970 --> 00:40:37,650
Much appreciated.
823
00:40:38,220 --> 00:40:39,970
Those spots are too far away.
824
00:40:40,130 --> 00:40:41,380
There is an empty house
825
00:40:41,380 --> 00:40:42,340
next to ours.
826
00:40:42,700 --> 00:40:43,570
The two of us
827
00:40:43,610 --> 00:40:44,530
can meet up more often.
828
00:40:44,780 --> 00:40:45,490
Mr. Yu,
829
00:40:46,180 --> 00:40:47,050
where are you from?
830
00:40:47,650 --> 00:40:49,180
From Yangui City in the South.
831
00:40:51,490 --> 00:40:53,860
Yangui City is near the Southern Frontier.
832
00:40:54,340 --> 00:40:55,820
It's right next to Nanwu.
833
00:40:56,650 --> 00:40:57,450
Beautiful scenery.
834
00:40:58,050 --> 00:41:00,420
Have you two been there before?
835
00:41:04,370 --> 00:41:08,400
[Yangui City]
836
00:41:09,780 --> 00:41:11,180
Yangui City is so beautiful.
837
00:41:11,820 --> 00:41:12,820
I've never seen
838
00:41:13,220 --> 00:41:14,010
such scenery
839
00:41:14,010 --> 00:41:14,780
in my hometown.
840
00:41:17,300 --> 00:41:18,050
There are many views
841
00:41:18,050 --> 00:41:18,820
you haven't seen.
842
00:41:20,650 --> 00:41:21,820
We can travel across the world
843
00:41:22,180 --> 00:41:23,010
and see them all.
844
00:41:28,610 --> 00:41:29,300
Had I not been exiled
845
00:41:29,300 --> 00:41:30,300
to the Southern Frontier,
846
00:41:30,860 --> 00:41:32,300
we wouldn't have met.
847
00:41:33,220 --> 00:41:34,050
He once said
848
00:41:34,050 --> 00:41:35,220
he'd never returned to Ling'an.
849
00:41:36,220 --> 00:41:37,650
Did he lie to me?
850
00:41:41,570 --> 00:41:42,530
My brother and I
851
00:41:42,700 --> 00:41:44,090
have never even left Ling'an.
852
00:41:44,530 --> 00:41:46,340
Just as Long Dan investigated.
853
00:41:47,220 --> 00:41:47,780
But if she has never been
854
00:41:47,780 --> 00:41:49,260
to the Southern Frontier,
855
00:41:49,820 --> 00:41:51,780
how did she become the Nanwu Saintess?
856
00:41:51,930 --> 00:41:52,970
The Southern Frontier is too far.
857
00:41:53,130 --> 00:41:54,420
My sister would've cried and begged
858
00:41:54,610 --> 00:41:55,700
to come home
859
00:41:55,740 --> 00:41:57,420
when she was halfway there.
860
00:41:57,740 --> 00:41:59,050
Zhan, you are injured.
861
00:41:59,220 --> 00:42:00,130
We should head home
862
00:42:00,180 --> 00:42:00,970
and get some rest.
863
00:42:01,530 --> 00:42:01,740
I...
864
00:42:02,010 --> 00:42:02,420
See you.
865
00:42:02,970 --> 00:42:03,450
Farewell.
866
00:42:03,820 --> 00:42:05,530
Yu, we shall meet again.
867
00:42:06,050 --> 00:42:07,130
Let's hang out sometimes.
868
00:42:08,340 --> 00:42:09,820
I think Yu and I
869
00:42:10,130 --> 00:42:11,420
were bound to meet.
870
00:42:11,970 --> 00:42:12,780
Did you see that?
871
00:42:12,970 --> 00:42:14,650
He was interested in everything I said.
872
00:42:14,860 --> 00:42:16,700
A soulmate like that is hard to come by.
873
00:42:17,010 --> 00:42:18,820
Si, why do I feel like
874
00:42:18,970 --> 00:42:20,860
you're frustrated to see him?
875
00:42:21,090 --> 00:42:21,930
I was hoping to invite him
876
00:42:22,220 --> 00:42:23,970
to our place.
877
00:42:24,970 --> 00:42:26,610
Zhan, we should avoid
878
00:42:26,740 --> 00:42:28,300
getting involved with him.
879
00:42:28,970 --> 00:42:29,780
Why is that?
880
00:42:30,380 --> 00:42:32,860
Si, had he not stepped in,
881
00:42:33,090 --> 00:42:33,930
you and I would've
882
00:42:33,930 --> 00:42:34,780
both died.
883
00:42:35,090 --> 00:42:35,860
I know.
884
00:42:36,220 --> 00:42:37,970
You've never met him in your life.
885
00:42:38,340 --> 00:42:39,450
It's best to be cautious.
886
00:42:40,740 --> 00:42:41,490
Start packing.
887
00:42:43,180 --> 00:42:44,260
Going back to Yangui City?
888
00:42:45,220 --> 00:42:45,780
We're staying.
889
00:42:46,450 --> 00:42:46,820
Chief,
890
00:42:47,740 --> 00:42:48,820
it's already risky to come back
891
00:42:48,820 --> 00:42:50,010
without an order.
892
00:42:50,610 --> 00:42:51,380
Besides, our brothers
893
00:42:51,380 --> 00:42:52,130
from the Red Plume Cavalry
894
00:42:52,130 --> 00:42:52,970
are waiting for us.
895
00:42:53,570 --> 00:42:54,220
Perhaps we should
896
00:42:54,220 --> 00:42:55,180
go back for now.
897
00:42:58,340 --> 00:42:58,930
Chief!
898
00:43:03,130 --> 00:43:04,260
We have a new lead.
899
00:43:05,340 --> 00:43:07,090
We even saw the emblem of the Saintess.
900
00:43:07,970 --> 00:43:09,820
We can't leave just yet.
