Original subtitles

Weiyoung, I don't understand.

Prince Gaoyang likes you.

You like him too.

If he finds out you risked your life to save him,

he'll just like you even more.

Prince Gaoyang?

Nothing can happen between us.

If he knows I am the one who saved him,

it would only make things more complicated.

I don't want to hold him up.

Maybe I would have a chance to explain to you in the future.

But not now.

Let's go.

Weiyoung.

Weiyoung.

Weiyoung.

My feet.

Your Highness.

Your Highness.

Now you won't

hate me anymore.

You'll all die if you can't find Prince Gaoyang before dark.

-Yes. -Yes.

Father, don't be too worried.

Jun is highly skilled in martial arts. I believe he would be fine.

Maybe he had just gone far to pursue prey.

That's why he lost contact.

Jun.

Jun, you must come back safely.

I was too careless.

I shouldn't have separated from him.

But I really never thought

he would risk his life just to get the white fox

for Lady Anping.

What did you say?

This happened to Jun because he wanted to help Li Weiyoung get the white fox?

Not only the white fox,

but also the prey Li Weiyoung got the past few days were all hunted by Jun.

No wonder.

She was able to beat all the royal sons and officials and win it.

It's because Jun was helping her.

That Li Weiyoung is incredible.

She can actually trick Jun and make him dead set on her.

It's all her fault.

She caused Jun harm.

Your Majesty.

You must give me justice.

If something happens to Jun,

you must not let Li Weiyoung get away with it.

That's enough.

Nothing would happen to my grandson.

If anyone dares to say something happened to Prince Gaoyang,

I would never let him get away with it.

Lady Changle.

Lady Changle.

Your Highness.

You're awake?

How do you feel?

I'm fine.

Did you save me?

The Crown Princess said you were missing.

So I came to find you.

I fell into this trap by accident.

Then

I saw that you were bitten by venomous snakes.

Are you all right?

If you're fine,

I can feel at ease now.

I have a favor to ask you.

I hope you'll agree.

You saved my life.

Tell me whatever you want.

As long as I can do it, I will promise you.

I don't have any special request.

I just hope

that you won't tell anyone

that I saved you.

Why?

Because I heard

that the Crown Princess

is choosing a consort for you now.

If people find out that I saved you,

you and I

would be pressured by the Crown Princess.

I don't want to give you a hard time.

I know

that I'm not the one you like.

I'm also not the one you want to marry.

But I like you.

I hope you can be happy.

So don't worry.

After we get out of here,

I won't breathe a word to anyone.

This will be a secret I'll keep forever.

Lady Changle.

You don't have to feel like you owe me.

Because this encounter

is the happiest memory in my life.

Being with you,

taking care of you,

accompanying you

and surpassing this challenge together with you

already make me feel very much contented.

I just hope

that you won't hate me anymore

and find me annoying.

Prince Gaoyang.

-Your Highness. -Your Highness.

-Prince Gaoyang. -Your Highness.

-Prince Gaoyang. -Prince Gaoyang.

-The people have come to find you. -Prince Gaoyang.

-Prince Gaoyang. -Please let me leave first.

Your Highness.

-I don't want anyone to see us together. -Prince Gaoyang.

Prince Gaoyang.

-Lady Changle. -Prince Gaoyang.

-Thank you. -Prince Gaoyang.

-Prince Gaoyang. -Prince Gaoyang.

Weiyoung.

You're finally awake.

Where's Prince Gaoyang?

Move slowly.

On the way back, I asked someone to go to him.

They must have found him now.

Don't worry. I didn't say anything.

No one would know that you saved him.

Weiyoung, you got lucky this time.

If you disregard your safety again,

let's just see if I'll still save you.

Thank you, Minde.

Young Lady.

Young Lady, you scared me.

Good thing you're fine.

Otherwise,

I won't be able to live anymore.

You're crying again.

Look, I'm fine, aren't I?

Young Lady, I didn't protect you well.

Please punish me.

How can I punish you?

I wasn't careful.

I'm fine now.

Stop blaming yourself.

Young Lady.

Prince Gaoyang is already back.

The royal physician is checking him. He should be fine.

By the way, Young Lady.

The Emperor gave the order.

In order to celebrate the capture of the white fox

and Prince Gaoyang's return,

he especially invited the officials to a banquet.

It will surely be a lively occasion.

He only invited officials?

Female assistants are not invited?

He didn't invite female assistants to this banquet.

I lost another chance to meet with the Emperor.

Young Lady.

Young Lady, where did you go?

I was so worried.

Let me ask you.

In that trap, aside from Li Weiyoung, was there anyone else?

There was none.

Did you see clearly?

If you dare lie to me...

Young Lady.

Young Lady, please forgive me.

I was really afraid back then.

So I didn't...

I didn't check carefully.

Never mind.

Good thing it was a blessing in disguise this time.

Get up.

Young Lady.

Did something good happen?

You look very happy.

It's a good thing indeed.

Help me get some water to freshen up first.

I'll tell you slowly.

Then I will ask you to do something for me.

Yes.

Physician, Prince Gaoyang will be fine, right?

Your Highness, don't worry.

After resting for one night,

Prince Gaoyang is fine now.

You may go.

Yes, Your Majesty.

This is great.

What exactly happened?

First, it was Di.

Then Jun got hurt.

Hunting is dangerous by nature.

Good thing we were just lightly wounded.

Don't worry, Crown Princess.

It's my fault to let Grandfather and Mother worry about me.

Get up.

Prince Gaoyang fell into the trap.

It's all because you didn't protect him well.

You weren't there at that crucial moment.

Why does he need a guard like you?

I didn't protect him well.

Please punish me, Your Majesty.

Grandfather, don't be mad.

I asked Cheng De not to follow me.

It's not his fault.

I'll keep tabs on you first.

You may go.

Thank you, Your Majesty.

Father.

I'm at fault in this matter as well.

Good thing Jun is not badly hurt.

Jun.

Do you blame me?

Don't be so serious, Uncle Han.

He is not badly hurt,

so is it a matter worth rejoicing?

If His Majesty didn't share his luck with Jun

and if Jun didn't get lucky himself, I'm afraid...

Your Majesty.

You were hunting on the grounds today.

We didn't expect a trap to be there.

Never mind that it was Jun who fell into it today.

What if you were the one who fell?

I think this is not that simple.

Your Majesty, please investigate this thoroughly.

Zong Ai.

Announce my command.

Investigate this thoroughly.

Yes.

Jun.

Rest well.

Tonight,

your two uncles, the officials, and I will hold a banquet for you.

Thank you, Grandfather.

Let's go.

Take care, Your Majesty.

Mother.

I heard this happened

because you were hunting the white fox for Li Weiyoung.

Mother, where did you hear this rumor?

This has nothing to do with Li Weiyoung.

Don't lie to me.

I've investigated this thoroughly.

You really disappointed me.

You risked your life just for a girl.

If something happens to you, what would I do?

Mother.

It was just an accident.

Weiyoung doesn't know about this.

Don't blame her.

She is not what you think she is.

She is really great. It's true.

She is worth risking my life for.

How great is she?

If she is really great, she should be visiting you now.

She only distracts you.

She only lets you do things for her.

What can she do for you?

Jun.

Listen to me.

Don't think about her anymore.

She does not deserve you doing this for her.

I'll find a good girl for you.

Thank you, Mother.

But in this world,

no one can replace Weiyoung in my heart.

It seems like the Crown Princess has suspicions about me.

Father already commanded to investigate this thoroughly.

Will they investigate me?

Don't worry, Your Highness.

My plan was flawless and there would be no traces.

You won't get involved.

No.

Just in case,

we have to kill everyone who was involved in this.

Yes.

This time,

if you can't handle this well,

then you'll disappear together with them.

Do you understand?

I understand.

General.

This Liang slave has his mouth shut tight.

What should we do with him?

Watch him closely first.

The report is with Li Weiyoung.

We can't drag this out any longer.

The Emperor is holding a banquet for the officials tonight.

Definitely, he'll have most of the guards with him.

Let's take this opportunity to assassinate Li Weiyoung

and get the report back.

Jun Tao, what should we do?

I don't know where Young Lady went.

Will she be in danger?

Beloved officials.

Cheers.

Father.

I want to congratulate you for capturing the white fox.

You're adept with both the pen and the sword.

Everyone is in awe of you.

-Congratulations, Your Majesty. -Congratulations, Your Majesty.

-Long live the Emperor. -Long live the Emperor.

Beloved officials, cheers.

This toast is for Prince Gaoyang.

Jun, you came back safely. Congratulations.

Thank you, Uncle Yu.

All right.

Seeing how you two

respect and care about each other,

I feel really happy.

Here, beloved officials.

Bottoms up.

I'll go relieve myself. Watch him closely.

Go, hurry up.

Let me tell you.

Let me tell you.

-What? -Let me tell you.

What did you say?

The report.

What report?

Where's the report?

Your Majesty.

What do you think of this wine sacrifice ritual?

It's very good.

Who are you?

Who sent you here?

Aren't you scared of dying?

Jun Tao.

What should we do now?

Bai Zhi, watch him.

I'll look for Young Lady.

Hold this.

Jun Tao.

I'm scared.

What are you scared of?

Kill him if he moves.

Okay.

Prime Minister Li.

In this hunt,

your daughter, Lady Anping

got the first prize.

I didn't expect

that your daughter

would be skilled in both the pen and the sword.

You're too kind, Your Majesty.

The royal sons and the General let her win.

No one let her win,

but someone helped her.

Did we receive reports from the people we sent?

No.

I risked my life to see you, Your Majesty.

I have something to report.

Weiyoung?

How bold. You disturbed His Majesty!

Please let me finish, Your Majesty.

When Wei's General Chiyun Nan sent troops to guard Liang,

he discovered an iron ore...

There's an assassin!

-There's an assassin! -An assassin!

This is bad.

-There's an assassin! -There's an assassin!

-Protect the Emperor. -Let's go.

-Protect the Emperor. -Protect the Emperor.

Hurry.

Father, I'll escort you to your tent.

Capture him.

-Get on the horse. -Capture them.

-Stop. -Stop.

Don't run.

Chase them.

-Ming! -Father!

Chase them.

Hurry, catch them.

-Catch them. -Catch them.

-Hurry. -Hurry.

We can't escape this way.

Young Lady.

I can't let the Chiyun family capture you.

We must think of a way to go back.

They don't know the masked girl is Lady Anping.

Going back is the safest way.

Otherwise, they will capture me sooner or later.

Yes.

Young Lady.

Who is he?

He came to assassinate you. He was captured by Jun Tao.

The assassin is inside.

Go in!

General Chiyun.

You can't just go inside.

It seems like Your Highness wants to protect the assassin.

I guarantee with my life

that the person you're chasing is not an assassin.

You can say that after I capture the assassin.

Surround the tent.

Kill anyone who leaves

without permission.

-Yes. -Yes.

Chiyun Nan!

Weiyoung.

Call the royal physician.

Yes.

What happened, Weiyoung?

Guards.

Capture the assassin.

Who dares to leave without permission?

The assassin is over there.

Let's go.

Who are you?

Who sent you?

Since the assassin had committed suicide,

please leave, General Chiyun.

Don't disturb Lady Anping's recovery.

Where is Lady Anping's wound?

On my left shoulder.

That arrow shot the assassin's left shoulder.

How did Lady Anping also got wounded at this time?

And the location of the wound is exactly the same.

Your Highness.

Is it possible to have such a coincidence?

How would you explain that, Lady Anping?

Just now,

he came into my tent

and used a knife

to stab my shoulder.

Good thing Jun Tao came just in time

and captured him.

Who can you fool with that?

If you don't believe me, you can check my wound.

A wound from an arrow

and a knife

can be easily distinguished.

Call the royal physician to inspect the wound.

What is the result?

Your Highness.

The wound was wide on top and narrow on the bottom.

It should be a knife wound.

That's impossible.

General.

I can tell whether a wound

is caused by an arrow or a knife.

Thank you, Royal Physician Liu.

How is Lady Anping?

Your Highness.

I've already applied medicine on the wound of Lady Anping.

She is fine now.

Take care.

Thank you, Your Highness.

Lady Anping needs to rest.

Please leave.

General Chiyun.

It's important to capture the assassin.

Please leave.

Did she stay in the tent all night?

Yes. She said she was tired.

She has been resting here in the tent.

Take good care of her.

Contact me if her condition worsens.

Yes.

Young Lady, they're gone.

Good thing you're smart and you averted disaster.

Young Lady, what's the matter?

Why are you hurt?

What happened?

We have no time to explain.

It turns out Chiyun Nan has long wanted to kill me.

Bai Zhi.

If you treat me as a sister, act out a scene with me.

Otherwise, when Chiyun Nan comes later,

I would rather you get rewarded for this.

What are you saying?

You saved my life.

I'm on your side forever.

Jun Tao, knife.

Here.

I...

When Chiyun Nan comes later,

he would surely use my arrow wound on the shoulder to use against me.

I must destroy the wound.

Young Lady, I really can't do that.

Hurry.

This can only save our lives temporarily.

Chiyun Nan surely won't stop.

Young Lady.

I'll get some hot water.

Jun Tao.

I'm sorry.

I was the reason your father died.

Your Highness.

I don't have a father anymore.

I can never see my father ever again.

Li Weiyoung.

You're a worthy opponent indeed.

It's a shame that your trick can fool others, but not me.

You are Liang's princess.

General.

Did you get it?

Not yet.

What's the use of having you?

Father.

I'm not filial. I didn't protect you properly.

I'll bury you and let you rest in peace now.

Who's there?

So they've been lying in wait for me.

It seems Chiyun Nan

wants to use Father's body to lure us to expose our identities.

Prince Nan'an?

His Highness sent me to check the assassin's identity.

How can you put a corpse here? Aren't you afraid of starting a plague?

Who are you?

All of you.

Bury the body with me.

-Why are you still standing there? -Well...

Do you want the Emperor and the officials to be affected by a plague?

Cheng An.

Help them.

Prince Gaoyang will bury you and let you rest in peace now.

I'll surely find an opportunity to kill Chiyun Nan and avenge you.

I didn't protect you well. The assassin disturbed you.

Please punish me, Your Majesty.

You noticed the assassin in time.

You've already done well.

How can I blame you?

Please stand.

Thank you, Your Majesty.

Any news about the assassin?

There's one still on the run.

I'll do my best to investigate and capture the assassin.

I think there's no need.

Father.

I've already found the assassin.

This is the assassin?

Yes.

Your Majesty.

It's hard to tell if it's the assassin based on a corpse.

Please let me continue my investigation.

Prince Nan'an.

How can you tell that this is the assassin?

Bring the dancer.

Your Majesty.

Do you know the deceased?

Yes.

She performed with us for the Emperor last night.

Are you familiar with this clothing and these accessories?

Yes.

Those are what the deceased wore while she was performing.

You're lying.

I won't dare to lie. I'm telling the truth, General.

All the dancers wore masks.

How can you be sure that it's her?

Well...

Well...

You can steal someone's clothing.

But you can't steal

someone else's wound, right?

I've already asked someone to check the corpse.

Her left shoulder is wounded.

It matches the location where the assassin was shot by an arrow.

This was taken from the corpse.

General Chiyun.

This is the Chiyun family's mark.

Am I right?

CHI

How is that possible?

I also found something else on the corpse

that proves the corpse is the assassin.

Your Majesty.

I remember this silk handkerchief.

The thing that assassin wanted to present to me

was wrapped in that silk handkerchief.

Your Majesty.

Even if this person is the assassin,

I'm afraid she has other accomplices here.

Please give me more time.

I'll surely capture the assassin's accomplices.

Father.

The officials are already tired from hunting for so many days.

And now this happened,

everyone is already physically and emotionally exhausted.

If we stay here any longer,

I'm afraid everyone will become agitated

and court affairs might also be neglected.

Furthermore, the assassin has already been caught.

There's really

no need to dwell on this further.

You're right, Prince Nan'an.

Prince Nan'an will take care of the rest here.

Today,

we'll go back to the palace.

Bai Zhi.

Weiyoung is hurt.

You have to put more effort into taking care of her.

Don't worry, Lady Changru.

I'll surely take good care of Lady Weiyoung.

I wonder.

Something happens wherever Weiyoung goes.

Is it really because she's a jinx?

They were just accidents.

You're all here.

-Greetings, Prince Gaoyang. -Greetings, Prince Gaoyang.

There's no need for courtesy.

Your Highness, how are you feeling?

I'm feeling much better.

Thank you for your concern, Lady Changle.

Since you're well, I can feel at ease now.

How are you feeling?

I'm fine. I just have a bit of a headache.

It's better if you see a physician.

I'll arrange for Royal Physician Liu to visit you.

Thank you, Your Highness.

Changle.

Let's leave first.

Let's not disturb His Highness.

Your Highness, we'll go ahead then.

Your Highness, I'm sorry.

Lady Weiyoung is already resting.

Please leave.

In that case,

I won't disturb her then.

I'll come back later.

By the way,

tell her I've ready buried that assassin

from the banquet last night.

Did anything happen between you and Prince Gaoyang?

It seems

like Prince Gaoyang is very concerned about you.

Don't ask about things

you aren't supposed to know.

Prince Gaoyang.

It's him again.

I had no choice.

I can only watch his men bury the body.

It seems like he is protecting Li Weiyoung and fighting with me.

By the way, General,

it seems like Prince Nan'an is also very interested with the assassin.

He sent someone to check the assassin's body.

I can't underestimate

Prince Nan'an indeed.

Are you still worried about the assassin?

I was about to get proof of Li Weiyoung's secret.

It's a shame that all my efforts were wasted.

Why so?

It's all because of your beloved Prince Gaoyang.

If not for him,

Li Weiyoung must have already died many times.

Li Weiyoung is seducing Prince Gaoyang.

She is very calculating.

You must not underestimate her.

I underestimated her before

and got tricked many times.

If you want to deal with her,

I think

we need to plan this carefully.

Changle.

Your improvement

is really surprising.

I have improved because of humiliation.

I'll never ever forget the humiliation Li Weiyoung brought upon me.

Do you have a way to deal with Li Weiyoung?

Li Weiyoung was able to avoid death many times

because of Prince Gaoyang's help.

After this hunt,

Prince Gaoyang will leave first to protect the Emperor.

That's a good opportunity for you to make a move.

-You are-- -Why?

You don't recognize me?

Your Highness?

I didn't know your identity.

I was disrespectful.

Please punish me.

You didn't know. I won't blame you.

Stand.

Thank you, Your Highness.

Your Highness, are you all right?

I'm fine.

Thank you for saving me that day.

That time...

I'm really sorry about it.

I really didn't know that you were

a girl.

I had always thought you were a guy.

That's why I was disrespectful.

I even tore your clothes out of panic.

-I was-- -Li Minde.

Aren't you going to stop?

She is not like a girl at all.

Weiyoung.

Minde.

Did you see the Princess?

I did.

I never thought she was a girl.

I was really surprised earlier.

However,

she doesn't have the air of a princess at all.

She even said she treats you like a friend.

What friend?

You believe her?

She has always

dressed like a man to fool us all.

I think she didn't mean any harm.

Maybe she just thinks it's fun.

All right. Don't mention her anymore.

How's your wound?

It's much better.

Chiyun Nan must have sent the person who tried to kill you.

The worse thing is I can't do anything to him right now.

Minde.

I don't want you to get involved in this.

I'll take good care of myself.

Just do your best as a royal guard.

That way you would make Aunt Xuemei happy, okay?

Why are you saying these things?

Weiyoung.

You're my only relative in this world.

How can I not care about you?

Minde.

Stop it.

By the way, I've already made a request to the Emperor

to let me escort families of officials home.

From now on,

I won't leave you.

CHIYUN SEIZES LANDS AND STEALS FROM CITIZENS

HE FOUND AN IRON ORE MINE AND KEPT IT FOR HIMSELF

Chiyun Nan.

With this proof,

you won't have a choice but to side with me.

Your Highness.

I saw a tattoo on the assassin's body.

I'm not sure if it's related to his identity.

Northern Liang's Royal Secret Guard?

If he is a member of Northern Liang's Royal Secret Guard,

then Li Weiyoung...

Your Highness.

That assassin went into the tent of Lady Anping last night

and wounded her.

I'm afraid it's not that simple.
