=The Unexpected Marriage=

=Episode 14=

Youmou.

His Highness is too cautious.

Yu has been clearly annihilated.

Even if there are some remnants left,

it's nothing to be afraid of.

Why do we need to patrol?

Look at your pouting mouth.

It can even lift a bottle.

Today I have an appointment with Jinyan

to take her to see people making clay figures.

Who made an appointment with you?

Isn't that your own wishful thinking?

Did she agree?

She didn't refuse.

Careful.

Who sent you here?

(Prince Qin's Mansion)

No survivors.

There's poison behind their teeth.

Those captured people

all committed suicide.

Judging from the pattern on the cuffs,

they seem to be descendants of Yu.

Indeed.

Has there been any movement

at the Second Prince

and the Fifth Prince's mansion?

The Second Prince

added some guards in his mansion.

There's been no change.

The Fifth Prince's mansion

is the same like every other day.

But I recently heard

that several martial arts masters sneaked into the city.

The detective has not yet found out

who's behind them.

Could it be that they're targeting Prince Qin?

His Highness is about to marry Princess Changsheng.

The Crown Prince still hasn't been decided.

Maybe they want to go all out.

Like a last-ditch attempt.

Who are they?

The Second Prince and the Fifth Prince want to compete for the throne.

But if they have a private relationship with Yu,

that's a capital crime.

Your Highness.

Youmou.

Investigate the background of these bandits

and the martial artists who sneaked into the city a few days ago.

If there is any news,

report to me immediately.

Yes.

Youyong.

Increase the guards at Huadeng Pavilion.

Tell Changsheng not to leave the house for the next few days.

Make sure to keep her safe.

There can't be any mistakes.

Yes.

Your Highness.

His Highness has ordered, no one is allowed to leave the house

without a necessary reason.

Everyone including me?

Though you haven't gotten married yet,

it does include you.

What happened?

We are only executing the order.

We don't know anything else.

Do you have

some exceptions?

That requires His Highness's token.

What if I must leave the house without the token?

We're ordered to guard this place.

- Please don't make things difficult for us. - Okay, okay.

I'll go back to my room, okay?

Would you like to eat some fruit?

No appetite.

How about we

play the shuttlecock?

My feet are sore.

Then

we can practice writing.

I'm sleepy.

Your Highness, don't be so listless.

You can get up and talk to us.

Your Highness, where are you going?

I'm going to find Lv Jing.

I want to go out.

Your Highness.

Prince Qin

is your future husband.

Whatever happens,

you must control your temper.

Your Highness.

Be careful with your words.

Be careful with your actions.

It's been so many days.

Why are you following me so strictly?

It's like I'm running away from marriage.

I don't believe it.

The more you don't let me leave here,

the more I want to leave here.

Chase her. Your Highness.

(Pen and Ink)

It's so frustrating not being able to leave the house.

Don't be frustrated, Your Highness.

Come down soon.

Don't fall.

I came up with great difficulty.

I won't go down simply because you ask me to.

It's not that easy.

Your Highness.

As long as His Highness wants,

even a fly can't fly out of here.

- Yes. - You are the fly.

What kind of metaphor is that?

Spring is in full swing.

You can't lock me up.

Have you heard the poem?

As spring cannot be kept in a house yard,

a red apricot bloom...

Creeps over the wall.

Do you want to climb over the wall?

I don't.

We were wrong.

But please come down now.

If you get hurt,

His Highness will blame us.

I don't.

I want to bask in the sun here.

Careful.

Bask in the sun?

Next time you have this plan,

ask me to join you.

Never mind.

It seems that basking in the sun

is pretty dangerous.

I'm going back.

Your Highness.

I'm afraid

Her Highness

will still think about going out.

Should I send more people

to guard her?

For this kind of thing,

the more you don't let her do it,

the more she wants to do it.

- Then... - It's better to divert the flood

rather than blocking it.

His Highness is knowledgeable.

Youmou.

Flood?

What does it mean?

Where is the flood?

Where is the flood?

I asked you to read more books.

"Strategies to Tame the Flood".

(Huadeng Pavilion)

Your Highness.

Your Highness.

Have you got the token?

Why is your face

so red?

Is it red?

Maybe

it's because I just ran back.

Exercise makes people hot.

Never mind. Never mind.

Look what this is.

His Highness didn't find it out?

Of course.

- So what if he's an old fox? - A mouse.

While the priest climbs a post, the devil climbs ten.

I stole the token after all.

It didn't take much effort to get it.

Your Highness, you got a fake token.

What fake token?

This...

(Pure Like Orchids)

Lv Jing.

You old fox.

The cylinder is too slippery.

Little mouse,

let's wait and see.

But why doesn't he let me leave the house?

Is it possible

that there are some

monsters

or ghosts outside?

What happened

to make him so cautious?

His Highness has always been thoughtful.

I guess he's doing this

for your safety.

If you really want to know,

just ask him directly.

Never mind.

I have a way without asking him.

Your Highness, go change your clothes.

Go.

Have another drink.

You can't refuse.

Your Highness, during our shift,

we can't drink alcohol.

What are you afraid of?

If His Highness blames you,

let him come to me.

His Highness

definitely won't blame you.

But

he will punish us.

Then,

if you can answer my question,

you can avoid drinking this wine.

What do you

want to know?

Recently, is there

something big going on out there?

Drink.

Drink.

Our mansion is strengthening guard

because of this matter?

They're coming for me?

Your Highness.

You have to ask His Highness yourself.

We are just following orders

to protect you.

His Highness

didn't let us reveal anything else.

Not reveal.

I want you to explain the details.

If you don't tell me,

you need to drink more.

Come on.

Come on.

If you still don't say,

I'll go tell His Highness

that you drank alcohol while on duty.

You will be punished too.

Your Highness.

You forced us to drink.

Yes.

I forced you to drink?

Who saw it?

I didn't.

Who can prove it?

No one can prove it.

You...

So Youyong and Youmou

drank alcohol while on duty,

and I caught them.

They even falsely accused me.

Shenxing, note it down.

Let's go find His Highness.

Okay.

Well...

Don't talk nonsense.

His Highness is afraid that Her Highness will worry,

so he did not allow us to talk.

I didn't say anything.

Isn't it the assassination incident some days ago?

Assassination?

Your Highness, what about them?

They will sober up.

What to do now?

Take a cold shower

to get rid of the smell of alcohol.

We still have to check for the assassin later.

Let's go.

Go.

(Equalling Men of Virtue)

In recent days,

the secret guards have checked the situation in various places in the city.

The people involved in the assassination have also been eliminated.

There is no accident in the city at present.

What about Her Highness?

Her Highness

have been quiet these days.

After asking us last time,

she doesn't want to leave the house now.

It's late.

Let's go see her tomorrow.

Okay.

Jinyan, I caught two more.

Look.

(Youlan Pavilion) How long do we have to wait

to catch a hundred of them?

Since Her Highness was imprisoned here,

our days are getting harder and harder.

We caught cicadas the day before yesterday,

counted the stars last night,

and today we're building an Ant House.

Her Highness's imagination

is getting richer.

I'm already very satisfied

with quietly catching a few ants.

The day is long.

We need to have something to do, right?

Her Highness said

we have to stay in the mansion

and learn to entertain ourselves.

Jinyan.

Did you catch the ants?

Here they are.

You guys, be good.

I'll also be good.

If I can't help,

I won't make more trouble.

Your Highness.

Why are you talking to the ants?

Are you confused now?

She's communicating with the ants.

Everything has a soul.

It's always good to interact with them.

By the way, His Highness got a canary

to amuse you.

That canary is so pretty.

Canary?

There is a duck in this mansion

and also a canary.

It's almost become a poultry house.

What?

You don't like a poultry house?

I didn't let you leave the house before

because there were some bandits outside.

I was worried they'd harm you.

Now the bandits have been wiped out.

It's safe outside.

I'll go out with you.

Really?

In recent days,

Great Tang is holding the market of the month.

The main street is full of small vendors

shouting and selling things.

If you go,

you can eat all the delicious food in Great Tang.

Do you want to go for a walk?

Since you are sincere,

I can't refuse you.

Let's go.

Look at this.

Look at that.

And this.

It feels good to be outside.

What did you promise me just now?

First, follow Prince Qin closely.

Can't act alone.

Second, keep a low profile.

Can't reveal my identity.

Third, be careful.

Can't be reckless or impulsive.

Good.

What is the most important one?

Follow you closely.

Jinyan, Shenxing.

You guys should walk around too.

- Yes, Young Lady. - Let's go.

Miss, look at the jewelry.

I have the most fashionable jewelry now.

Miss, you have good taste.

Stop, do you want to say

this earring is the treasure of your store,

the materials used are of the highest quality,

and the style is also the most fashionable?

With my beautiful face

and elegant figure,

it'll look stunning?

Could it be that you're a businesswoman?

Can you make it cheaper?

I give you the lowest price.

I'll take it.

Does it look good?

Yes.

Wrap it up.

Okay.

And this one, and this.

- Okay. - Wrap them all up.

Someone will come to pick them up.

OK, sir.

Take care.

Miss.

Check out our new fabrics.

All over here.

It feels smooth

and the colors are bright.

This green one is so pretty.

- It's all new. - Ma'am.

Coming.

You two take your time.

Look at this silk.

It's much thinner than Fuyu's.

Touch it.

Let me touch it.

This one is better.

Alright.

I want it.

I'll make you a hat later.

Miss, you have good taste.

Is it beautiful?

Which one do you like?

This one.

- OK. - Wrap it up for me.

Okay.

(Where's Changsheng?)

Young Lady, how come you run so fast?

We almost couldn't catch up with you.

I'm too happy today.

- What do you think? - Nice.

You're here.

Today we bought jewelry, fabric,

and so many other things.

Isn't

this mask cute?

Smile.

Look at your expression.

It's just like this mask.

What did you promise me?

Didn't we agree to...

Follow you closely

and don't leave you.

You only know how to talk.

I am overwhelmed by the power

of Great Tang.

Look at that silk.

It feels thin and soft,

and the texture is thick and shiny.

The embroidery on it

is so exquisite.

And the jewelry here.

The style is trendy,

and the materials are also different.

This sweetmeat

tastes delicious too.

Although Fuyu is also rich in products,

after all, it's mainly in the salt business

and lacks life sentiment.

If

we can teach these handicraft skills to Fuyu,

I think it will be more prosperous.

What's wrong?

I'm going to marry into the Great Tang soon.

But I am also a princess of Fuyu.

I always think about

what I can do for our people.

I will try to find a way

to establish trade relations between Fuyu and Great Tang.

You can see these things in Fuyu in the future.

Thank you.

They're selling sugarcoated haws.

Let's go buy some.

Okay.

Take your things and wait in the carriage.

- We'll meet up in a bit. - Yes.

Okay.

Let's go.

Please take it.

Thanks.

Come again.

Sugarcoated haws.

Delicious sugarcoated haws.

Not yet satisfied?

I am satisfied.

Just feeling a little reluctant.

Wait until life becomes peaceful,

I'll come with you often.

Follow me.

Buy some.

So beautiful.

Previously in Fuyu,

we often heard

how prosperous Great Tang is.

After today's visit,

it surely lives up to its name.

I'm thinking

for the people to live and work in peace,

the country needs to be stable

and the world peaceful.

We were born in the royal family.

So we should think what the people think,

and worry what the people worry.

If the people in Great Tang and Fuyu

can avoid the suffering from war in the future,

the prosperous times now

can be passed down for thousands of years.

Why did you suddenly think of this?

Fuyu's market is also very lively.

Nowadays,

on the streets of Great Tang,

watching the busy traffic,

the hustle and bustle of crowds,

I just feel

indescribably

moved.

Just like

people in the world

should live happily and peacefully like this.

Of course, all this

still depends on Great Tang

protecting the people on this land.

Being in the right position,

we must seek happiness for the people.

This has always been my motto.

The people of Great Tang are my responsibility.

Now Fuyu is too.

I will spare no effort

to provide a better life for all.

You did a great job.

Taste this as a reward.

It's really sweet.

It fell.

I'll buy a new one.

Young Lady.

Where are you going?

Wait for me.

I'm accompanying her to buy sugarcoated haws.

Your Highness, do you need me to go with you?

No need.

Get out of the way!

The horse was frightened.

Step aside!

Are you okay?

Careful.

How can they do this in the street?

That's right.

- Are you OK? - Young Lady.

- I'm fine. - Your Highness.

Are you OK?

You're bleeding.

It's fine.

Let's go back home.

(Prince Qin's Mansion)

Have the assassins in the market been found?

After the carriage was hit,

the bodyguards came over

worrying about your and Her Highness's safety.

Then these assassins blended into the crowd and escaped.

But...

But what?

But we examined the body of the dead assassin.

The pattern on his cuffs

is the same as those assassins' from last time.

And on his back,

we found a special totem.

It's a scar.

This scar

was caused by a knife cut later.

After careful examination, we found

the scar is to cover up the slave imprint

peculiar to the royal family.

Same as you guessed before,

it should be done by someone from the palace.

Although the back has been scratched,

we can vaguely recognize

this pattern

is the totem of the Second Prince.

Lv Hou.

Keep investigating.

You mean...

Don't be misled by this obvious evidence.

Don't miss any clues.

Send some more people

to make sure Her Highness's safety.

Yes.

Your Highness, let's apply the medicine.

You guys can leave.

It's a minor injury, not serious.

You took me out of the mansion.

I guess you had confirmed it was safe.

But we encountered an assassination again.

I'm afraid the last assassination

was to test your strength.

Today is the key.

While the streets are crowded,

they disguised as civilians

and assassinated you.

I didn't think carefully.

I just came to Great Tang

and don't know your situation.

I even clamored to go out,

caused you trouble,

and hurt you.

Sorry.

Why bother saying this?

Training a desperado

takes three to five years.

These people were well prepared.

It's only a matter of time before they take action.

You don't have to take it to heart.

But you still got hurt.

Don't worry.

I will adapt to the situation here as soon as possible.

So

no matter what happens to you,

you can tell me.

You don't need to be

extremely cautious for me.

I don't want it

that you'll always stand in front of me.

You are good enough.

Not enough.

You want me to trust you.

I hope you can trust me too.

We will be each other's

most powerful ally.

Have you heard that Prince Qin got injured?

What?

The invincible Prince Qin

was injured in Luojing?

That's right.

This is a hot topic among the public recently.

I heard that Prince Qin was injured

because of the future Princess Consort Qin.

They're at odds?

No.

It is said that the Princess of Fuyu

is a witch.

All the men who admire her will have a bad ending.

That's why Prince Qin was injured.

This matter has long been known to everyone in Fuyu.

Only Prince Qin is still kept in the dark.

This sounds a bit unbelievable.

Right.

Let's continue from last time.

Last time we said

the lone star

happened to fall

into a family in Fuyu.

This family

is not an ordinary family.

It's a prince of Fuyu.

And this child

became Fuyu's princess.

Because the lone star

lives in the princess's body,

so

since the birth of this child,

there has been no peace in the whole mansion.

Who are you talking about?

- I'm going to destroy your tavern. - You...

(Huadeng Pavilion)

Your Highness.

What happened?

Who is so bold

as to bully my maids?

Wait and see.

No one bullied us.

Someone bullied you.

We didn't fight.

We went to smash up the tavern.

So you guys bullied others.

I just thought

my maids wouldn't get bullied.

Your Highness.

Is this the point?

The point is that someone bullied you.

Tell me.

What on earth happened?

They spread rumors

that you are the reincarnation of a lone star.

You'll affect the fortune of Great Tang.

(The rumor has spread to Great Tang.)

(It seems someone did it on purpose.)

I see.

Don't worry, I know what I'm doing.

The horse got crazy?

Father.

Actually,

everyone knows it now.

Although I don't quite believe it,

the recent events

are worrying indeed.

Lv Jing's carriage

was rolling along the road.

How could the mad horse

bump into it?

Fortunately, nothing happened.

But the strangest thing is

why did the horse suddenly go crazy?

Right.

Why did the horse suddenly go crazy?

Yes, Father.

This is the crux of the matter.

The merchants have said

this horse is usually very docile.

It never lost its temper.

But how come it suddenly went crazy

after seeing Lv Jing's carriage?

This situation

only has one explanation.

That is...

What is that?

The rumor is true.

The Princess of Fuyu

is really the reincarnation of the lone star.

Son.

You need to be responsible

with what you say.

I said the wrong thing again.

Father.

I spoke without thing

because I cared too much.

What if it's true?

Father.

Great Tang's fortune

allows no slip-ups.

Fine.

Someone,

summon

Princess Changsheng.

His Majesty wants to see me.

Why does he suddenly want to see you?

I'm afraid the rumors about me recently

were spread by someone on purpose.

What to do then?

If it is true as you said,

you can't go to the palace.

If I don't go, it means I have a guilty conscience.

Once you go, you might not come back.

This happened because of me.

His Highness is busy.

Don't tell him yet.

Your Highness.

Don't worry.

I'll try to solve it.

I heard

Fuyu

is good at growing flowers and plants.

Changsheng.

Look at how my flowers are growing.

It's not appropriate to plant

lilac and daffodil together.

Why is that?

Different flowers have different habits.

Lilac likes plenty of sunshine

and has strong shade-resistance.

Daffodil

prefers warm and humid climates.

And it needs sufficient rainfall.

Two seemingly unrelated plants

will hurt each other when planted together.

Everything in the world is interdependent.

This is natural law.

If the two plants are grown separately,

I guess it will be better.

Even nature has laws.

What about human beings?

Your Majesty.

I have something to confess.

Go ahead.

When I was in Fuyu,

it was once rumored that I was a lone star.

Therefore, in Fuyu,

no men

wanted to marry me.

So you mean

the peace-making marriage

is not what you want?

Quite the contrary.

The marriage was initiated by me.

Although I don't care about the rumor,

since I'm married to Great Tang,

naturally, I don't want these unfounded rumors

to affect Prince Jing.

Get up.

Today we're appreciating the flowers.

Why did you talk about this?

Your Majesty.

The envoy from An presented a letter of credence.

Please read it, Your Majesty.

This...

An is becoming bolder.

They wrote the letter

in their own native language.

Who can understand

this letter?

Wan.

Take a look for me.

I could read An's language.

It's just this letter...

I heard that An recently made changes to their language.

I can't fully

understand this letter.

Then leave it to the Ministry of Rites.

Your Majesty.

Could I

have a look?

You?

Even my aunt can't read it.

Can you understand it?

You'd better not make a fool of yourself.

You have to

let me read it first

to know whether I'll make a fool of myself.

Please, Your Majesty.

Then take a look.

Your Majesty.

In this letter,

the intention is to pay respects to you.

It's mentioned that at the border between the two countries,

there have been bandits causing chaos occasionally.

But An has sent troops to quell it.

Please rest assured, Your Majesty.

At the end of the letter,

they used very respectful words.

They mentioned Your Majesty

is quite busy,

and asked you to take care of your health.

You...

How can you

understand this letter?

Yeah, I'm curious too.

You can even

recognize

such complicated

honorifics.

Your Majesty.

I've always liked

to study the language of different countries.

Among them, the written and spoken language

of An are not the same,

so there are frequent changes.

Out of curiosity,

I paid special attention to An's language.

I showed myself up in front of Princess Royal and Your Majesty.

You're too modest.

Wan.

In this regard,

you've met your match.

You're right, Brother.

Being proficient in languages,

the Princess of Fuyu

does have some skills.

I'm flattered.

It's been a tiring trip.

Especially Princess Changsheng.

With all the explanations,

you must be thirsty.

Hou.

Why don't you pour a glass of water for her?

Yes, Father.

Father, please.

Thank you.

Changsheng.

Just now,

you weren't even afraid of me.

Why do you look scared

of our Second Prince?

Your Majesty.

I'd better

not tell you the reason.

Since you said that,

I must know the reason.

I don't mean this.

I'm just afraid that saying this

will drive a wedge between you two.

Then I'll become a sinner.

You won't.

I won't punish you.
