[Si Jin]
[Adapted from Si Jin, by Dong Tian De Liu Ye]
[Episode 26]
[Count of Dongping's Mansion]
Your Highness.
Greetings, Mr. Jiang.
You lead the Capital Administration Office,
solving countless cases and upholding justice.
You possess exceptional talent,
a rare find indeed.
You are too kind.
However, Your Highness,
I cannot entrust Si
to you.
Mr. Jiang.
Have I done
something wrong?
I welcome any feedback.
You're
a part of the imperial family.
You cannot avoid
the affairs and politics of the court
since your birth.
If Si marries into your family,
she will be surrounded by danger.
Mr. Jiang.
I'll do my best
to ensure Si's safety
and lead a peaceful life with her.
I'm just afraid
that things might go against your wishes
and that you have no control over the situation.
[Haitang House]
Are you serious about Prince Yan?
I fancy him.
I know this is hard to hear,
but from someone who's been there,
I must give you some advice.
He's a prince
and a member of the imperial family.
Even if you two
have conquered the first trial,
and get married,
it's hard to say whether or not you two
will have a happy ending.
Yi, don't worry.
I'll stay cautious.
Look at this.
I'm just curious about something.
Why did you dream of
being a heroine?
I was raised in the military,
surrounded by men.
I've heard the tales of various heroes
since I was young.
Back then,
it felt strange to me.
I wondered why
the main leads of all tales
are men.
I wondered why
women could only play the role of a damsel in distress.
I was upset about it.
Who said women
couldn't become heroines?
If they can do it,
I, Lu Chuchu, can do it too.
I see.
You're indeed different from other women.
Your heart
was never restricted
by anything.
You pursue your dream without restraint.
Jiang Zhan.
Thank you for the compliment.
Si is the same as you.
Both of you are courageous girls who desire to explore the world.
Unless something goes wrong,
these should be the suspects.
It contains predictions
related to the solar eclipse.
Look at this.
It states that it'll happen on the second day.
Because of this, they overturned
their previous prediction.
No wonder Yang Nianzhi, the supervisor,
didn't receive
any reports about the solar eclipse.
Luckily, we intercepted
a secret letter of the Nightingale Sect.
If not, even if the solar eclipse did occur,
they could only be branded with the crime of negligence of duty.
We have no time to waste.
I'll start to organize them
and present them to His Majesty
by tomorrow morning.
Thank you.
[From the 8th year to the 5th year of the Jingming era]
[Annals of Fortune and Misfortune]
[The 4th and the 2nd year of the Jingming era]
Your Majesty.
It's unsettling to find
so many from the Directorate of Astronomy
connected to this case.
The Spring Official, Zhang Qi,
the Registrar, Wei Yuan,
the Observatory Director, Li Chujiang, and the rest
were involved in the Mid-Autumn Hunt case.
The Nightingale Sect
has infiltrated our court for long.
It's truly shocking.
The Directorate of Astronomy has been negligent in their duty.
First, they forced me to send my son away,
using heavenly signs as their excuse.
Now, they have failed to predict the solar eclipse,
causing an assassination to occur.
Dismiss them and investigate their conduct.
Supervisor Yang Nianzhi has shown gross negligence in his duties.
Two years' worth of salary shall be docked.
If so, there will be many vacancies.
Your Majesty, I'm worried
that villains might take advantage of this opportunity.
I do have a suitable candidate in mind.
The Count of Dongping, Jiang Ancheng.
[Capital Administration Office]
Are you making a kite?
That's right.
It's more convenient to buy one.
It's troublesome to make.
They don't sell kites like these
in the market.
I'm making this...
especially
for a lady.
What? For whom?
A lady?
It's like this.
Some time ago,
I mistook a lady for someone else.
I've caused her some trouble.
Therefore, I want to make a kite
for her
to express my apology.
Is that all?
Yes.
That's pretty good.
Commandant Yu.
You may cut to the chase.
It's nothing major.
His Majesty wants to assign the Count of Dongping to a position.
I just think that there's no need
to notify his family
about this.
You don't want
Miss Si to find out, right?
I don't want her to be worried.
Understood.
You don't want the Count of Dongping
to be involved in court politics.
Don't worry.
I'll keep it a secret.
Your Highness,
Mr. Zhen instructed me
to hand this kite to you.
He said
there's a bamboo whistle within.
It'll produce a sound in the wind.
It'll ring.
Nanny Hua!
Yes, Your Highness.
We'll test it on your behalf.
Please wait a moment.
Let's run!
♪Through endless twists in the mundane world♪
♪The breezy wind blows, the heart grows tender and bitter♪
Your Highness.
I know of a kind of kite
that can speak.
Even if you can't see it,
you can still hear where it flies.
♪I ask the Sun if the light has taken root♪
A kite that can talk?
Does a kite like that really exist?
Yes.
Next time I enter the palace,
I will bring one for you.
♪We lock eyes and promise to stay together forever♪
Then I would be grateful for your assistance, Mr. Zhen.
♪After countless challenges, we are still us♪
♪Our inseparable souls can weather all storms♪
♪We cross paths and promise to stay together forever♪
♪The tapestry of destiny is filled with our youth♪
♪Our blissful time together will lead us to the sea of stars♪
♪We lock eyes and promise to stay together forever♪
♪Through frost-kissed trails, and starry space♪
♪Moon-silvered dreams, on love's embrace♪
♪Hearts bound as one, through time's soft chase♪
♪Love's tide guides, beyond our mortal space♪
♪A moment kept with your embrace, where blooms have found their place♪
Fuqing's resting
so early today?
Yes, Your Highness.
Her Highness flew a kite today.
Perhaps she's exhausted.
She went to bed
right after the hour of Xu.
[Empress Di. Nanny Hua]
Why would she fly a kite out of the blue?
She has never done it before.
I heard
that Mr. Zhen of the Capital Administration Office
gave Her Highness the kite.
Her Highness loved it.
I even found out
that there was
a bamboo whistle
on the kite.
It was unique.
It didn't seem like an ordinary kite.
It seemed like
Mr. Zhen made it himself.
Zhen Heng?
His Majesty often
praised him.
He's highly knowledgeable, upright in office,
and diligent in duty.
If so, how did he get to know Fuqing?
Not long ago,
Her Highness and Mr. Zhen
were seeking shelter from the rain under the same roof.
If so,
they do have an affinity for each other.
I thought so too.
Your Majesty,
recently, everyone in the palace
is saying that His Majesty
will hold the Floral Banquet
for the Sixth and Seventh Princes
to choose their consorts.
Speaking of which,
our princess
is at the age
when she should get married.
His Majesty has brought the notion up several times.
But Fuqing's eyes are...
I'm always worried that she might suffer
after getting married.
I still wish
that she could find someone who truly loves her
and treats her gently.
Mr. Zhen
does seem like a good candidate.
Greetings, Father.
Jin.
Was the residence to your liking?
Father, I'm happy with the arrangement.
Great.
If so, you just need a female head to run the household.
Summon Imperial Concubine Xian.
Your mother will help you select a consort.
It's time
for you to get married.
Must Mother be the one
to select my consort?
In the Southern Frontier, two individuals may get married
as long as they're in love.
You're Prince Yan.
Naturally, you're bound by rules.
The culture here is different from the Southern Frontier.
Or,
do you have someone you fancy?
It's fine.
Invite her to the Floral Banquet.
Under the pretext of flower appreciation,
we invite noble ladies to attend the consort selection.
Back then, the late empress and I
got engaged
at the Floral Banquet.
Understood.
Thank you, Father.
Well.
The Sixth Prince is older than you.
He's not married either.
Imperial Concubine Zhuang has brought it up many times.
Relay my message.
Instruct Imperial Concubine Zhuang and Imperial Concubine Xian
to organize the Floral Banquet.
Yes.
Jin,
what's that in your hand?
Eunuch Liu, please.
Father, I've prepared a soothing incense for you.
I shall take my leave.
A few days ago,
I told Prince Yan
that you were suffering from headaches again
and couldn't sleep well.
You had to say something, didn't you?
Yes, Your Majesty.
[Lushengxiang Store]
Yi, I've been busy lately.
But business is booming as well.
I couldn't tend to both sides at the same time.
That's why I hope
that you can help me out.
But you already have
Miss Chuchu
and Miss Rou'er in the shop.
They're managing it well.
I don't know how to do business.
I'll only cause trouble for them.
That won't be the case.
Miss Jiang, if you don't mind,
you may ask me if you have any business-related questions.
I'll teach you everything I know.
That's right.
The more, the merrier.
Let me thank you all in advance, then.
Yi, I appreciate your effort.
Yi, now that you have something to do,
your days will be more fulfilling.
This way, you won't have time to be depressed.
[Preparation] It's late.
[During the spring plowing season] Your Majesty,
you're still having headaches.
You shouldn't tire yourself out.
The incense Jin gave me was pretty effective.
I feel much better now.
Prince Yan is filial, which is rare among the princes.
His thoughts are pure too.
Too much so.
That's why I'm worried about him.
He even said he wanted
to marry a woman he loves.
He's a part of the imperial family.
It's not that simple.
I don't even dare to say
that I've married the love of my life.
Your Majesty,
Imperial Physician Han is here to deliver your medicine.
Let him in.
Your Majesty.
This is the soothing soup for the night.
I'm not taking it.
It stinks.
It was difficult
to obtain this prescription.
Good medicine tastes bitter.
Your pulses have been stable lately.
It also eased your headaches somewhat.
It's...
Why are you so long-winded?
Baoping, get rid of it.
Yes, Your Majesty.
Your Majesty,
Princess Mingyue used her own blood
as a catalyst
for the medicine.
Please take it
on account of her filial piety...
What did you say?
I need to do a prayer together with Mother tomorrow.
I don't think I can make it.
You can brew tomorrow's medicine
tonight.
But Your Highness, you're bleeding too much.
Your body might not be able to take it.
It doesn't matter.
It's fine as long as His Majesty is healthy.
Mingyue.
Uncle.
What are you doing here at this hour?
Come on. Show me your hand.
Imperial Physician Han,
didn't I tell you to keep this from Uncle?
Your Highness,
I didn't mean to do it.
Your Majesty, Princess Mingyue came here
to brew your medicine every day.
She used her own blood
as the catalyst for your medicine.
Since your headaches were getting better,
that means
this prescription was effective.
Have you read too many medical books
that you went insane?
How could you trust such a prescription?
Uncle, don't be angry.
I was the one who found the prescription
and handed it to him.
I was afraid that you were still angry at me.
That's why I did this in secret...
Mingyue?
What's wrong?
Your Majesty, I'm afraid she has bled too much.
Her body couldn't take it.
Send her to her room. Hurry.
Yes, Your Majesty.
Baoping.
Notify Rong Yang.
Yes, Your Majesty.
Mingyue.
You do things without considering the consequences.
You're your mother's precious daughter.
If she sees this,
she'll blame me for it.
Of course I hid this from Mother.
Uncle, I can do anything as long as it can help treat your disease,
even if it means sacrificing
my own life.
I know you're filial.
Tell me. What reward do you want?
I want the Seventh Prince
to be my husband. Is that okay?
Mingyue, what nonsense is this?
Greetings, Your Majesty.
You don't need
to take Mingyue's words to heart.
So what if you had
fulfilled your filial duties?
Does that mean you can act willfully now?
No one in the palace
is as filial as her.
From today onward,
I shall restore her princess title.
Mingyue, show your appreciation.
I am grateful, Your Majesty.
[Changle Hall]
You lived in Changle Hall
when you were young.
We used to play together nearby
all the time.
Indeed.
Brother,
do you still remember?
Back then, I saw the princesses
rearing rare birds,
while I had none.
You were worried that I might be upset.
You climbed onto this tree
and grabbed
a handful of baby sparrows for me.
You even told me
that no one in the palace had reared sparrows before.
Therefore, my birds
were rarer than theirs.
I was
an unappreciated prince.
That's the only way
I could make you happy.
I'm sorry you had to go through that.
I'll get angry
if you keep saying that.
Although we aren't biological siblings,
we both felt the pain
of losing one's mother since young.
The Empress Dowager took us in
and raised us within her quarters.
To me,
the bond we share matters the most.
Yes.
In the blink of an eye,
we've kept each other company
for many years.
Mingyue is all grown up now.
Brother,
Mingyue
was just throwing a child's tantrum.
She did it on a whim.
That's why she said she wanted to marry Yu Jin.
But don't worry.
Although I've spoiled her,
I won't let her do such a silly thing.
Mingyue used her own blood
as the catalyst of my medicine.
She's a filial child.
The imperial family may look different from a commoner's family,
but you're worried about
the marriages
of your children,
just like me.
I've already instructed Imperial Concubine Xian
to hold the Floral Banquet for Yu Jin.
If Mingyue does intend to marry him,
she can attend it
and give it a try.
We'll see if they have an affinity for each other.
Brother, thank you.
You intruded upon a woman's quarters at this hour.
Aren't you afraid that people might see us?
I couldn't care less.
I missed you.
It's good for them to see us like this.
I want them to know
that you're the woman I love.
The imperial palace will hold the Floral Banquet soon.
They're selecting consorts for my sixth brother and I.
By then,
I'll come up with a way to send you the invitation.
During the banquet,
I'll announce
to everyone
that you're the one I want to marry.
Do you expect me to attend the banquet
and compete with the noble ladies
for your love?
You're the only one I love.
Even if you don't do anything,
you'll be my only choice.
I dare not accept such flattery.
Now, you're Prince Yan.
I'm just an ordinary girl.
I can't afford
to live in the palace.
I'll leave the place
and lead the life I desire sooner or later.
If you keep saying these out of spite,
I'll take them for real, you know?
Serving the emperor is a dangerous task.
You need to figure out every word he utters
and predict every move he makes
so that you won't make the wrong move.
On most days,
it's fine if you throw a little tantrum
at him.
But if he shows any hints of displeasure
or unwillingness,
you mustn't push your luck.
His Majesty always appears good-natured
in front of others.
It'll give people a sense of illusion
that he's a benevolent
and simple-minded emperor.
They have no idea
how intelligent he is.
To be his favorite sister,
one must never resort to demanding things from him
again and again.
If Uncle isn't willing to grant me this marriage,
do I have to wait for Yu Jin
to marry me voluntarily, then?
He only has eyes for Jiang Si.
Why not?
My daughter
excels at all four arts.
And, her beauty
is unmatched.
Since His Majesty
is holding the Floral Banquet for Yu Jin
as part of the consort selection,
we just need
to make him choose you.
Mother, you have a point.
It's getting late.
Your Highness, please leave.
May you enjoy
the Floral Banquet
and find your beloved.
What do you mean?
Are you chasing me away?
That's right.
I need to rest now.
You're still here, huh?
I know that the path ahead will be more difficult
now that I'm Prince Yan.
Perhaps I won't be able to get you farmland,
a small house, and provide you with a simple life.
But I have set my heart on you.
I'm yours for the rest of my life.
You won't be able to chase me away.
Unless your wish
involves
my departure.
By then, you just need to notify me.
I'll see you off
with a reluctant heart.
Prince Yan, I suppose
you can't live on farmland with me.
But I think Yu Qi
can do it.
Don't worry.
I'll win the Floral Banquet.
Your beloved
can only be me.
My love, you have a point.
I've carried
this jade pendant with me since I was young.
It can keep you company
when I'm not around.
For Jin's Floral Banquet, we should invite
gentle and subservient
noble ladies.
After that, we'll invite some with excellent backgrounds.
Yuhu.
Yes, Your Highness.
Deliver this to the Office of Ceremonies.
Yes, Your Highness.
I wonder about the kinds of ladies
Imperial Concubine Zhuang would invite.
Your Highness.
Prince Yan is here to greet you.
What is he doing here?
He's waiting outside.
Will you see him?
Of course.
I need to depend on him
to assist Zhang in the future.
Let him in.
Greetings, Mother.
I appreciate your filial piety.
Do you need anything?
I heard that the date for the Floral Banquet
has been set.
It's on the 18th day of the month.
Jin, are you worried that I might do
an unsatisfactory job?
That's not it.
I was stationed at the Southern Frontier most of the time.
I do not know much about the noble ladies in the capital.
However, I long
for a peaceful and harmonious life.
Mother, it all falls on you
whether or not
I'll marry the consort of my wish.
Don't worry.
I'll select
the consort of your wish for you.
I shall take my leave, then.
Jin had a fight with the Crown Prince before.
I thought he was reckless and unruly.
Now, it turns out
that a child like him
actually longs for marriage.
Your Highness,
in my opinion,
Prince Yan's thoughts are...
They're too pure.
But that's a good thing as well.
Choosing his desired consort
ensures his easy persuasion
by my words.
By then,
if I have a harmonious relationship with his consort,
he'll help Zhang out under my influence.
Jiang Si, it all falls on you now.
[Lan Xingwen]
Director Sun.
This is the guest list of Imperial Concubine Xian's
Floral Banquet.
[Jiang Si, the daughter of the Count of Dongping]
[To Jiang Si, the daughter of the Count of Dongping]
Si was quiet and reserved.
But look.
She received an invitation from the palace.
My goodness!
This is unbelievable!
Grandmother.
Si,
come here.
Sit beside me.
Come on.
Si, take a look.
This is an invitation
from the imperial palace.
The imperial palace will hold the Floral Banquet soon.
They're selecting consorts for my sixth brother and I.
By then, I'll come up with a way
to send you the invitation.
Do you know
why
they sent you the invitation?
Grandmother, you must be joking.
I don't even know
that they're holding an event called the Floral Banquet,
not to mention
receiving an invitation out of the blue.
You have no idea, huh?
But you didn't seem surprised at all.
Grandmother, you taught us
to remain unshaken in the face of tumultuous events.
That's how a noble lady
should behave, right?
Mother!
Mother!
Si received an invitation from the palace?
So, you found out about
the joyous occasion as well?
The Floral Banquet?
It's clear that this is a consort selection.
Si,
you mustn't attend it.
Have you lost your mind?
This is an invitation from the imperial family, you know?
Was it Yu Qi?
What has this got to do with Yu Qi?
Mother,
Yu Qi is the Seventh Prince.
Seriously?
That's why Si mustn't attend it.
In my opinion,
he's a good man.
If they truly get together,
it'll be a beautiful tale.
Besides,
it's not like
she'll definitely be selected.
The key is that she has received this invitation.
Now, the Count of Dongping's Mansion
can finally hold our heads up high.
It'll be much easier for us
to find in-laws in the future.
Father,
it's not that easy to be selected.
Besides,
this is an invitation from the imperial palace.
We can't just reject it
for no reason.
That's right.
Si.
Hurry and make your preparations.
Tell the housekeeper
if you lack anything.
I have two sets
of exquisite hair ornaments.
I'll instruct Afu to deliver them to you later.
Thank you, Grandmother.
By the way,
you must remember my words.
There are rules we have to obey in the palace.
Don't hear,
see,
or say what you shouldn't.
Follow the example of others.
Remember this:
Do not stand out and invite trouble.
Your Highness,
these are all crafted
from the finest Hetian jade.
The plates, bowls,
pots, and the pillow.
These are the Four Treasures of the Study
from Longyan Treasure House.
These are landscape paintings
by the Four Great Talents of Zhou.
Aunt, what do you mean by this?
My daughter, Mingyue,
admires you.
If you select her as your consort
during the Floral Banquet,
I'll let bygones be bygones
and guarantee you a promising future.
Aunt,
what do you mean by that?
What if I say
I can help you to be the Crown Prince?
Really?
The current Crown Prince lacks virtue and talent.
How do you think
he's able to retain his position?
Of course it's because of you.
But unfortunately,
I have no interest
in this position whatsoever.
I have no lofty aspirations.
I just want to be a freeloader.
You're the bringer of misfortune.
His Majesty may not mind it,
but I haven't forgotten.
Nor have the officials.
In the past, His Majesty
had no choice but to send you to the Southern Frontier
as all officials begged him to do so.
The same thing can happen again.
But I can convince the officials to forget about your past.
Your Highness,
you truly think the world
revolves around you, huh?
Do you think
you can change my life
with just your words?
Indeed.
My patience is thin.
Obey or face the consequences.
Farewell, Your Highness.
Chief.
Do I need
to dispose of them for you?
Keep them here. These are good items.
What?
The palace is holding the Floral Banquet?
That's right.
I heard that they'd be selecting consorts for the princes.
Really?
Besides Miss Si, did the rest of the ladies
receive the invitation?
Miss Si was the only one who received it.
Everyone in the mansion is saying
that Miss Si
might be able to become a princess consort.
If Miss Si
does become a princess consort,
their branch
will
be over the moon.
If so, our branch will never stand a chance.
Madam, don't worry.
Miss Si, an unlucky bringer
of misfortune,
cannot become a princess consort.
She thinks
she's that lucky, huh?
In her dreams.
The imperial palace is gigantic.
Mr. Zhan!
Si!
Zhan.
Are you nervous?
Not at all.
Zhan, return to your position.
It's inappropriate if others see this.
It's fine.
What is this?
A rose sweet.
Sweet food brings fortune.
All right.
Is it nice?
Yes.
Zhan, don't worry.
Good fortune is coming my way.
Your Highness, your new outfit
looks great.
May I know where you bought it from?
It's a shame
that I can't join you at the Imperial Garden.
You must tell me about it after this.
Okay.
I'll tell you everything
I see over there.
Why is Miss Jiang
wearing the same outfit
as Princess Mingyue?
Greetings, Your Highness.
Wretch.
Who gave you the right
to wear the same outfit as me?
Take it off.
Your Highness,
I ordered this custom outfit
at Tianxiu Pavilion
on Zhuque Street.
I drew the design
and selected the material myself.
Did your tailor steal the design
from Tianxiu Pavilion?
Or were you
trying to impersonate me on purpose?
Xiaohong.
Tear off her outfit.
What do you think
you are doing?
Aman!
Stop!
Mother.
Greetings, Your Highness.
Mingyue was rude today.
Miss Jiang, if she has caused you any offense,
please forgive her.
Your Highness, please don't worry.
I won't hold it
against Her Highness.
Mother,
I merely wanted
to teach that wretch a lesson.
Why did you stop me?
Mingyue,
if you truly intend to end one's life,
you have to act the best you can in front of others
and do the most ruthless deeds behind their backs.
If everyone knows that you're picking on her,
they'll surely blame you
if anything happens to her.
I understand.
There are plenty of other things you need to learn.
[Imperial Garden]
Imperial Concubine Xian and Imperial Concubine Zhuang
have arrived.
[Imperial Concubine Zhuang]
- Greetings, Your Highness. - Greetings, Your Highness.
You all may rise.
Concubine Zhuang, you should take your seat.
After you.
Prince Shu and Prince Yan have arrived.
