I thought about you when I saw these two pearl pins.
Look at them.
We can have one each.
This is for you.
It was just a silk handkerchief.
I can't insinuate that she is the killer because of it.
She is like a sister to me.
Your Highness.
What is it?
Take me there, quickly.
General Chiyun.
I've done my very best.
I finally managed to save General Chiyun.
Now General Chiyun,
you won't doubt my sincerity again, right?
-Your Highness, have some water. -No.
What's wrong, Your Highness?
I always feel that I've let Weiyoung down.
Strictly speaking,
I should be held responsible for Bai Zhi's death.
If only I were a bit more cautious,
Bai Zhi wouldn't have died if I had more men watching over them.
Your Highness, don't blame yourself.
You've done more than enough for them.
Before Li Minde left,
he asked me earnestly to look after Weiyoung.
But I failed to live up to this promise.
When he returns,
he surely won't forgive me.
Your Highness actually misses Royal Guard Li?
I have to say, Your Highness is truly Royal Guard Li's loyal friend.
When he went missing back then,
you helped to look after his sick mother.
Now you're helping him watch over Li Weiyoung.
Why isn't Royal Guard Li grateful to you at all?
He should at least pay you a visit.
-Exactly. -Right.
If you talk nonsense again,
I'll send you to the Laundry Bureau to wash clothes for Li Weiyoung.
Please don't.
I won't dare talk nonsense anymore.
It's been half a year.
Li Minde.
Why haven't you returned yet?
Li Minde.
Where exactly are you?
-Why are there so many people? -What are they doing here?
-The diplomatic corps of Rouran. -He is like this.
The one up there.
-Who are they? -Look at them.
Look at their clothes.
-Exactly. -Right.
-Rouran must be scared of us. -Exactly.
So many of them are here.
They must be scared.
-Yes. -Look at them.
-Look. They are dressed like that. -Right?
-I've never seen these strange clothes. -Ruru.
Ruru.
-Quite a sight. -Ruru.
How insolent.
Guards, take them down.
-Yes. -Yes.
-Come here. -What is it?
-What is it? -Let the child go!
-What? -What are you doing?
-Let go of her. -Slap her.
-My child. -Hold on!
-What? -Are you scared?
-Leave first. -Why hit a child? Seriously.
Step aside!
Little girl, are you all right?
Don't be scared.
Children are ignorant.
General Jiao, leave it.
If a child can disrespect Rouran
it implies that the people of Wei think little of Rouran.
I must teach them a lesson today.
The people of Wei should learn the consequences of disrespecting us.
We're here in Wei on an official visit.
Don't take such trivial matters to heart.
Let her go.
Mother.
Thank you, dear Prince.
-He's so kind. -Exactly.
-That's true. -Exactly.
-There are good people in Rouran too. -Indeed.
-They aren't all bad. -Exactly.
WEI
TAIJI HALL
Greetings, Your Majesty.
Envoys, forgo the formalities.
What brings you to my kingdom?
Your Majesty is endowed with civic and martial virtues.
My father, the Khan admires you.
He seeks rapprochement with your kingdom.
Today, he has sent me and my sister, Princess Anle as envoys to Wei.
We hope to foster a cordial relationship between the two nations.
We also hope to establish mutual trading with Wei.
You wish to gain mutual trading by only exchanging a princess?
Your Khan really seeks a good bargain.
Exactly.
Who does Rouran think they are
-to sign a treaty with Wei? -Indeed.
-You... -They must yield.
-Anle. -Yield to us.
Leave the same way you came.
-The Wei Kingdom can't do this. -No way, Rouran is barbaric.
-Your Majesty. -We can't accept their terms.
Wei and Rouran are neighbors.
We've had conflicts over the years and we both suffered losses.
After Wei experienced a calamity, you engaged in a war.
I believe recuperation is needed.
With the marriage alliance, we can ease our doubts.
There will be mutual peace.
This is beneficial to both nations.
So you are Prince Yuanlie?
Greetings, Your Majesty.
Li Xiaoran.
Your Majesty.
Do you recognize Prince Yuanlie?
Your Majesty.
He...
He is...
Before the Khan of Rouran deployed his envoys,
he sent a letter in advance.
It states that your brother's adopted son
is actually Tuhezhen Khan's long-lost son.
Prime Minister Li.
The Li family first adopted the prince of Rouran,
then acknowledged the princess of Northern Liang as a daughter.
What should I do with you?
Please forgive me.
I really didn't know.
I've been kept in the dark.
Your Majesty, please investigate this thoroughly.
Your Majesty.
This matter has nothing to do with the Li family indeed.
My identity has never been made known to the Li family.
Over the past ten years, I was raised in the Li family.
I'm truly grateful.
I would never do anything to hurt the Li family and the Wei Kingdom.
Your Majesty, please show mercy and spare the Li family.
You're a man of gratitude.
You were indeed raised and nurtured well in the Wei Kingdom.
All right.
For the sake of Prince Yuanlie,
Li Xiaoran.
I'll be lenient to you.
Forfeit his salary for a year.
Thank you, Your Majesty.
Your Majesty.
Since Rouran has sent Princess Anle for a marriage alliance,
we are sincere in establishing a cordial relationship with Wei.
Shouldn't the Wei Kingdom reciprocate as well?
What are you implying?
I would like to ask Your Majesty
to marry the Princess of Wei to the Khan of Rouran.
Hence, a marriage alliance will be formed between both nations
and we will never forsake it.
What did you say?
-How outrageous. -This...
Rouran is asking for too much.
-How dare they be so arrogant? -Your Majesty is still at war
with Liu Song in the south.
I believe you don't want any conflicts in the north as well.
If Your Majesty can marry the Princess into the Rouran royal family,
this will surely attain eternal peace between both nations.
Please approve of this.
-He is threatening His Majesty. -It's outrageous.
-This is too much. -Prince Yuanlie
and Princess Anle, you've traveled a long way.
Please get some rest first.
As for mutual trading and the marriage alliance,
we'll discuss them later.
-Yes, Your Majesty. -Yes, Your Majesty.
You...
How dare you seek to marry the Princess of Wei to Rouran without my consent?
Who are you to be so bold?
I'm the envoy of Rouran.
It's only right that I strive for the benefit of Rouran.
This is totally reasonable.
How can you not discuss such a serious matter with me?
Do you still have any respect for your prince?
I'm well aware that Your Highness is very attached to the Wei Kingdom.
I fear that you might have hesitations,
so I took the liberty of asking.
Please forgive me.
-You-- -However,
I only did so for the sake of Rouran.
Wei isn't short-changed.
They just have to marry a princess into Rouran.
It can then ensure peace at their northern frontier.
You could have asked for cattle, sheep, or even jewelry.
But why did you ask for their princess?
We're marrying a princess to them.
Why can't Wei also marry a princess to us in return?
Your Highness, what's wrong?
Could it be...
You can't bear to have the Princess of Wei married?
Your Majesty.
Prince Yuanlie spoke with reason.
Mutual trading with Rouran can help us recuperate better
and recover faster.
Your Majesty.
Rouran has invaded us several times.
They burned, killed, and robbed.
They committed all sorts of crimes.
They also paid tribute to Liu Song.
They were willing to join forces with them to go against us.
We must not trust Rouran so easily.
If we give them an opportunity to have mutual trading with us,
it will only put us in grave danger.
My opinions differ.
Rouran is in the north.
They raise livestock.
Once it is winter and all pastures wither,
many of their people will starve.
That's also the main reason why Rouran has invaded us several times.
If we were to establish mutual trading with Rouran,
it will help with ensuring stability at the frontier
once their daily needs are met.
As for Prince Nan'an's concerns,
it shouldn't be a problem if we take the initiative in the trading.
Good.
I'll leave Prince Gaoyang in charge of the mutual trading treaty.
Yes.
What are your opinions regarding the marriage alliance?
Ninth Princess seems to be the only eligible candidate...
where kinship is concerned.
I believe Father
must be in a great dilemma.
However,
in the past dynasties, for the sake of stability at the frontier,
the marriage alliance was always considered as the best solution.
Father, please think it through.
How is that the best solution?
It's obviously the worst.
If we establish mutual trading with Rouran,
trust will naturally build up over time.
There's no need to sacrifice Aunt Di's happiness.
I'm strongly against it.
I definitely can't bear to marry Di off.
However, if we turn them down,
I'm afraid conflicts will arise in the north.
By then,
there will be Liu Song in the south and Rouran in the north.
We'll be caught in the middle.
The Wei Kingdom will be in peril.
All right, now.
That's enough.
I'll make my own decision.
His Majesty arrives.
-Greetings, Father. -Greetings, Your Majesty.
Get up quickly.
Father.
Why would you have the time to visit me in my quarters today?
I haven't spent time with you for a while.
I'm here
-to have a talk with you today. -Okay.
-Zong Ai. -Yes.
Your Majesty.
You may go.
Yes.
Di.
Look. What is this?
It's such a pretty rabbit.
Do you like it?
Yes. I like it.
It's a tribute from the prince of Rouran.
I'm giving it to you.
The prince of Rouran?
Which prince of Rouran?
It's Prince Yuanlie.
Prime Minister Li's nephew, Li Minde.
He is actually the Khan of Rouran's long-lost son.
Li Minde?
Has he returned?
This is wonderful.
He is here
to make a request of me to establish mutual trading.
He also hopes
to marry my daughter off to Rouran.
He asked you for my hand in marriage?
Did he really ask you for it?
Did you agree to it?
Di.
For the sake of peace between Rouran and Wei,
I hope you can agree to marry for the alliance.
I do.
Di, you...
Di.
Rouran is a foreign nation. It's bitter cold out there.
Are you really willing to be married off?
Yes.
Great.
That's great.
You truly are a descendant of the Tuoba clan.
I'll announce the decree in consent of the marriage alliance now.
You'll marry the Khan of Rouran, Tuhezhen.
The Khan of Rouran?
Isn't it Li Minde?
Li Minde is the envoy.
It's his father who asked to marry you.
What?
Li Minde wants me to marry his father?
What's wrong?
I refuse.
I won't marry him.
Di, you...
I'm not marrying some Khan.
He's old and ugly.
I don't want to marry him.
Di, you're acting up.
You just promised me.
But you didn't say I was marrying an old man.
Father.
I'm your darling daughter.
How can you bear to marry me off to a dying man?
The marriage alliance is beneficial to the situation.
The children of the royal family should put the nation first.
What nation?
I don't care about the nation.
I won't marry anyone.
I'm not some toy.
Father, you can't just give me away to anyone you want!
Di.
I've already decided.
You don't have a say in whether you marry or not.
Your Highness.
Your Highness. What's wrong?
Summon Li Minde here!
Yes.
Rouran has sent envoys.
I heard the Prince of Rouran is really handsome.
I heard that he was also the adopted son of the Li family.
Really?
-What are you talking about? -We are talking about
-Prince Yuanlie of Rouran. -What?
-A prince? -What prince of Rouran?
What has it got to do with my cousin?
Weiyoung.
Minde?
My father was critically ill back then.
His condition was unstable.
You were also in great distress.
I didn't want you to worry,
so I didn't tell you about my identity.
I only left you a letter and left without a word.
You won't blame me, right?
I'm already very pleased to see you safe and sound.
How would I blame you?
By the way, is your father all right?
Strangely enough.
Perhaps he was happy to see me.
He gradually recovered.
So it's true, then.
I did not expect you to be who you really are.
How is it?
Are you very happy to see your biological parents?
I was very confused.
On one hand, I wish I were Li Minde, but on the other hand, I wish I weren't.
What is it?
You're suddenly the prince of Rouran.
Are you not used to it?
But then, whoever you might be,
you're still my cousin.
You're still so handsome and charming.
What "handsome and charming"?
I'm not a woman.
That hurts. Look at you.
Why do you still have such bad manners?
Did I hurt you?
Let me take a look.
All right, I'm fine.
I'm just teasing you.
Weiyoung.
I've heard about the recent events.
I'm sorry.
I wasn't here by your side when you were going through a hard time.
However, it will all get better now.
By the way,
I brought a gift to you to celebrate our reunion.
-A gift? -Yes.
Come out.
Young Lady.
Jun Tao!
Jun Tao.
You're still alive?
Young Lady.
You'll be in trouble if anyone sees you hugging an attendant.
This is wonderful.
You're actually alive.
If only Bai Zhi knew...
If only Bai Zhi knew,
she wouldn't want to see you sad because of her.
By the way, what exactly happened?
How did you run into each other?
After I fell in the water while wounded,
a merchant from Liu Song saved me and I somehow ended up in Rouran.
Then I met the Prince.
He brought me along on this trip.
Greetings, Prince Yuanlie.
The Princess asked to see you at the training grounds.
Yes, I got it.
Please tell Her Highness that I'll be there right away.
Yes.
What's wrong?
It's my fault.
General Jiao asked His Majesty to marry the Princess to my father.
How did that happen?
Doesn't His Majesty always dote on Princess Di dearly?
It's General Jiao's fault.
He used the safety of the frontier as a threat.
After His Majesty weighed the pros and cons,
he could only sacrifice the Princess.
Can you really bear to have the Ninth Princess marry your father?
Don't worry about this matter.
Just leave it to me.
I'll take my leave.
It's risky if Jun Tao stays here.
I'll take her with me.
We'll discuss this later.
Young Lady, take care.
You have to be more cautious.
If His Majesty finds out that you're still alive,
you'll be in danger.
Reach out to me through the Prince.
Okay.
Weiyoung.
I'll visit Old Madam in a few days.
Let's go together.
Okay.
Let's go.
Your Highness.
Stop right there.
I told you to stop!
Don't assume that I wouldn't dare to kill you.
I've let you down.
If you wish to kill me, I won't dodge at all.
Li Minde.
I've spent all these days waiting for you.
Yet upon your return,
you want me to marry your father!
Li Minde.
I was wrong about you!
I never wanted you to marry into Rouran.
Please give me some time.
I'll come up with a solution.
Stop lying to me!
I've seen right through you.
I swear to the gods.
I'll never let you go for a marriage alliance.
Why should I believe you?
If I can't prevent you from marrying for the treaty,
I'll die a terrible death.
My lord.
Why have you asked to see me?
Here's the thing.
Wei is establishing a cordial relationship with Rouran.
It's very likely that we're going to need your assistance.
Please do help us out.
I'm afraid I'm too trivial to make a difference.
I won't be of much help.
Your Highness. What do you mean by this?
I'll be frank with you.
I have a favor to ask of you.
Please don't turn me down.
His Majesty has chosen Princess Shanggu for the marriage alliance.
However, my father prefers ladies
who are gentle and understanding.
Her Highness is still too young and immature.
I'm afraid she and my father are incompatible.
What worries me even more is that it will affect our friendship.
Therefore, I hope
that you can offer some advice to His Majesty on my behalf.
-This-- -You don't want her to marry into Rouran.
Do you?
If you can protect the Princess,
it's also a form of service to His Majesty.
Isn't that right?
Indeed.
If so,
thank you in advance, Your Highness.
As for the outcome,
it comes down to the Princess' destiny.
Yes.
Thank you.
Changru.
Changru.
Changru.
Didn't you tell me you would be Prince Nan'an's consort?
Why have I heard that he is marrying the Princess of Rouran?
I was certain that I was going to be his consort.
However, I never expected a princess for a marriage alliance would appear.
Among the princes,
only Prince Nan'an is still single.
This is His Majesty's decree.
There's nothing Prince Nan'an can do.
What will you do now?
Will you be just a concubine?
Changru.
The future is unpredictable.
If Prince Nan'an doesn't succeed the throne,
you will just be a concubine.
Also, she is a princess.
You'll have a very hard time in the future.
Be sure to think it through.
Madam, Lady Changru.
Prince Yuanlie and Li Weiyoung have arrived.
Old Madam is asking you to come over.
Nothing is predictable.
He was once just an insignificant adopted son.
Who would expect he would be the prince of Rouran?
However prestigious he is, he is still just a person from Rouran.
He is a nobody in the Wei Kingdom.
Also, he has to leave eventually.
Let's go. We'll take a look.
I would like to see how impressive the prince of Rouran can be.
-Greetings, Grandmother. -Greetings, Grandmother.
Get up quickly.
-Thank you, Grandmother. -Thank you, Grandmother.
Minde.
You're now a prince.
How can you bow to me?
You've both came back to visit me today.
That makes me so happy.
I am who I am today
because of Grandmother and my mother's guidance.
I'll never forget such kindness.
Minde is now a prince.
He is indeed generous.
Grandmother.
Why isn't Uncle Xiaoran here?
Uncle Xiaoran's salary was confiscated.
Why would he want to see you?
Changxi.
-Enough nonsense. -I...
Minde.
Don't take Changxi's words to heart.
As an official,
it's normal to be promoted or demoted.
Furthermore, it's just his salary that was forfeited.
It's all right.
Weiyoung.
Come here. Quickly.
Let me take a good look at you.
Come here quickly.
Grandmother.
You've lost weight.
It must be tough in the palace.
Grandmother, don't worry.
I'm fine.
Grandmother and Mother, you must take care of yourselves.
Don't worry.
Your grandmother and I are fine.
We just don't get to see you, so we miss you.
This morning, I heard the magpies chirping noisily.
I knew something good would happen.
Look. Am I right?
Is this really Minde?
Look at your outfit.
As the prince of Rouran, you're truly different now.
Are you still so quiet?
Weiyoung.
Weiyoung, you've come home.
You'll have to stay for a few more days.
How can I?
If it weren't for Minde,
I'm afraid I wouldn't get to come back at all.
What a pity.
Grandmother.
I have a favor to ask of you.
I wish to offer incense to my mother.
Certainly.
Good, you definitely should.
Weiyoung.
Go with him.
Sure.
Thank you, Grandmother.
DECEASED MOTHER, LADY ZHOU
Mother.
I've come home.
Whoever I might be upon this return,
in my mind, you'll always be my mother.
Aunt Xuemei.
Minde has come home.
He is now very mature and capable.
Moreover, he is doing very well.
You can rest in peace.
Minde, now that you've returned in glory,
I believe Aunt Xuemei must be very pleased in heaven.
I'd rather exchange my identity as a prince for my mother's life.
It's such a shame.
"When a child wishes to care for their parents, they are no more."
Perhaps that's the saddest thing about life.
By the way,
can you really bear to have Princess Di become your mother?
I won't ever agree to that.
I have to think of a plan to break this marriage alliance.
But His Majesty has already approved it.
What can you do?
Rest assured.
I have a plan.
By the way,
I mean to ask you.
Why did Tuoba Jun marry Li Changle?
I thought he would make you happy.
Who knew he would hurt you the most?
There are many complicated reasons.
He shouldn't be blamed.
So it has come to this.
Are you still defending him?
All right, we won't discuss that.
By the way, Minde.
I would like to ask you for a favor.
What is it?
It's about Changru.
Changru?
HOSTEL
You have returned.
Yes.
What is it?
Your Highness, were you at the Prime Minster's manor?
Yes.
So what?
You went to the places you wanted to go to and saw the people you wanted to see.
Shouldn't you be making plans
for the mission the Khan entrusted to you?
Your Highness.
Don't forget the promise you made to the Khan.
I know what to do.
I'm just reminding Your Highness.
It's getting late.
You should get some rest soon.
I'll take my leave.
I've held a banquet here today to welcome the envoys.
Please make yourselves at home.
Speak freely.
Don't feel restrained.
-Thank you, Your Majesty. -Thank you, Your Majesty.
Princess Anle.
I've ordered a few new outfits from the Laundry Bureau
as my gifts to you, Your Highness.
Please pick a few that you like.
Take them.
I've especially invited the noble ladies of Ping City
and young ladies of Wei to keep you company you today.
I hope Princess Anle will have a good time.
Weiyoung.
Don't leave. Keep me company.
Since His Majesty and Consort Lu said so,
do pardon me.
Prince Nan'an, you are chosen for the marriage alliance.
What is your opinion regarding this?
A marriage alliance is beneficial to the cordiality of both nations.
The people of Wei and Rouran can both live in peace.
Our nations can recuperate well.
It's my honor to be of service to both Wei and Rouran.
Men get both the reputation and benefit.
What about the women?
Women are married off to faraway lands without any family.
Who has ever considered their sorrow?
There are thousands of ways to strengthen diplomatic ties.
Why should women be traded?
Marriage alliances go all the way back to the Han Dynasty.
Lady Zhao Jun's story was passed down as a deed well praised.
How can you call it a trade?
Marriage alliances in the past have all ensured peace at the frontier.
It's proven to be effective.
It's only right
that the Wei Kingdom establishes a marriage alliance.
The Emperor of Han had a marriage alliance with the Xiongnu,
but the Xiongnu still rebelled constantly.
Prince Nan'an, do you really think
that the marriage alliance is an effective strategy?
It seems that Princess Anle is hard to deal with.
Anle, behave.
I should discipline her.
Please forgive me, Your Majesty.
I did say in the first place
that everyone can speak freely.
Prince Nan'an.
You have yet to answer me.
What is there to answer?
We're not the one asking for a marriage alliance.
Who are you?
I'm Princess Shanggu, Tuoba Di.
So you're the Tuoba Di who is marrying my father?
Anle!
So what?
I heard that under Wei's ruling,
the Xianbei people and the Chinese Han people integrated.
They learned much of Chinese culture.
I believe the princess of Wei must be well-educated in Chinese culture.
Definitely.
The children of the royal family are educated well from an early age.
Since Your Highness says so,
I do have a few questions for you.
I wonder if you're willing to answer them?
Anle.
Don't go too far.
His Majesty is very forgiving.
I'm sure he won't mind, right?
Di.
Just play a game with Princess Anle.
Sure. I'll teach you a thing or two.
There's an old saying, "A horse and a cow won't wander into each other's sheds."
May I ask Your Highness
what that means?
How is that difficult?
"A horse and a cow won't wander into each other's borders."
It means that two matters aren't related.
It's just like the Chu State and the Qi State in ancient times.
These two places were far away from each other.
Even if a cow and a horse are lost, they won't wander into each other's borders.
Exactly.
Wei and Rouran are exactly the same.
Why should we come all the way here for a marriage alliance?
Princess Anle, that isn't exactly right.
Although Wei and Rouran are miles apart,
we will become friends after establishing a marriage alliance.
Friends?
Speaking of friends,
I would like to ask Your Highness
about the meaning of the word "friend."
"Friend"?
What does it mean?
Your Highness, please explain it to me.
You don't even know that.
Let me teach you.
In the Rites of Zhou,
"Friends serve under the same mentor and are like-minded."
Friends are people who form camaraderie under the same mentor.
There are those who become friends because they are like-minded.
Fine. I have another question.
Hold on.
It's impolite not to reciprocate.
Why is only you who gets to ask the questions?
I have a question for you as well.
Princess Anle. Listen up.
Don't embarrass Rouran.
I won't make it hard for you.
Here's an easy question.
To have different opinions is "to share an opinion to the left."
Why is it to the left instead of the right?
Our princess does have a trick or two.
-Indeed. -Yes.
This question is just as tricky
as the one Princess Anle asked.
Why are you so quiet?
Weren't you quite eloquent?
I've stumped you with just the first question.
-Teach that princess a lesson. -Di.
Tell us the answer.
Father.
Generally speaking,
our right hand is more agile than our left.
The right is referred to as the agile and helpful side.
Whereas the left is then seen as clumsy and an opposition.
Therefore, it's used to describe how opinions differ.
"An opinion to the left" means it differs from the rest.
Princess Anle. Do you understand?
Don't be so smug.
That maid next to you taught you exactly what to say.
Anle!
I apologize on behalf of Anle.
All right.
It's just a game.
Why take it so seriously?
Thank you, Your Majesty.
Servants.
Serve the wine.
You...
Princess Anle is quite willful.
I'm worried that she might stir up more trouble in the palace.
Since the royal family of Rouran is related to the Li family,
I'll grant Princess Consort Gaoyang and Li Changru access to the palace.
Keep Princess Anle company.
-Yes. -Yes.
Weiyoung, thank you.
Weiyoung, I was lucky to have you here today.
Otherwise, I would have embarrassed myself.
Your Highness, you've helped me so much.
How is this worth mentioning?
Weiyoung.
It was so gratifying.
Di.
You have to thank Weiyoung.
Definitely.
As for you, you're marrying such a willful princess.
You'll have to think of ways to take her down a notch.
If not, you're in for trouble.
Isn't it the same for you?
The royal family of Rouran is complicated.
Be very cautious at all times
after you're married there.
I can't stay to talk.
I have to go.
Is there no other way around regarding this matter?
Judging by Princess Di's personality,
she'll surely have a tough time if she marries into Rouran.
Descendants of the royal blood are raised in prestige and luxury.
How can we not pay a price for that?
This was a trade-off right from the start.
No one can fight it.
That includes me.
You don't wish to marry Princess Anle either?
Which man
doesn't wish to be with the woman he loves?
I won't yield so easily.
As of now,
it's just a contingency plan.
Once you marry Princess Anle, you must treat her well.
A woman's marriage affects the happiness of the rest of her life.
What about my happiness?
Weiyoung.
I...
You're the one I'm fond of.
Your Highness.
Someday,
I'll marry you.
You'll be my consort.
I'm grateful that you've helped me so many times.
However, I never thought of marrying Your Highness.
From today onward,
you better get this straight.
You can only be my woman.
I am the only man
you can love.
If you think otherwise,
you should change your mind soon.
