Episode 1

You can never escape us.

Your Highness!

Your Majesty. Princess Rong Le is awake.

Your Majesty.

Come on.

Even if you disagree with this marriage alliance,

you shouldn't have run away on your own.

You are wounded and blamed.

Are you happy now?

Who are you?

What is this place?

Rong Le.

Your Majesty, Physician Liu's worry came true.

Her Highness might have had a concussion.

That is why she lost her memories.

Her Highness? What are you talking about?

I lost my memories?

I don't understand a thing you say.

You are in the royal palace of Western Qi.

I am the Emperor of Western Qi.

You are my younger sister.

You are Princess Rong Le of this nation.

I am ...

Princess Rong Le of Western Qi?

Yes.

Your Majesty.

The medicine is ready.

Don't be worried about this.

According to the physician,

as long as you take your medicine on time,

you will slowly regain your memories.

Take your medicine.

I am not drinking this.

It's all right.

You just woke up, you must be feeling a little discomfort.

Stay here and rest well.

You may drink it when you wish to.

Little Xun.

Rong Le.

You have my word.

I will do whatever it takes to help you regain your memories.

Calm down and get well.

You are dismissed.

Let the princess have some rest.

Yes.

Rong Le?

Princess?

Marriage arrangement?

Amnesia?

An emperor for brother?

Why can't I remember any of these?

Who exactly am I?

-Is this where I lived? -Yes, Your Highness.

You are His Majesty's only sister.

His Majesty loves you very much.

No matter how busy His Majesty is with the nation's affair,

whether it has been days or longer,

he will be here to visit you.

Your Highness is very clingy to His Majesty too.

Your Highness.

Your Highness?

Your Highness?

Your Highness.

Your Highness.

Am I really a princess?

Your Highness.

Your Highness, why are you here? Are you all right?

Your Highness.

Your Highness?

Your Majesty.

You seem to be feeling better now.

I promised you I will help you find the memories.

I can help you regain the lost memories if you want.

However,

if you act recklessly like you were just now....

and charge right into everything,

not only will it not help,

you will even get hurt and lectured.

Please, refrain yourself from doing that.

This was your favourite place once.

It feels familiar, does it?

Does it remind you of something?

Rong Le.

Back in the days,

you love to brew tea in this room.

You were great at brewing tea.

No one in the whole palace can best your skills.

Let's give it a try.

You should try too.

How is it?

See? You may have lost your memories,

but I think...

the muscle memories for your interest still remain.

Rong Le, don't worry about this.

Everything will be back to normal.

These are your favourite desserts.

Give it a try.

It's okay.

One step at a time.

Let me play you a song.

It was once the song you love the most.

You always asked me to play it for you.

I always think...

the time we spent playing melodies and brewing tea...

were the happiest moments of our life.

So that reminiscence does not linger,

so that sorrow never lasts.

Why is this written in different handwriting?

Your Highness.

Your Highness, it's time to take your medicine.

Ling Yue.

Can you tell if I wrote this poem?

Yes, you wrote this.

I was there when you wrote this.

All right, Your Highness.

Come on, finish this medicine.

I will drink it later.

The Empress Dowager arrives!

Come on, Your Highness. We should be kneeling.

Arrest her.

What do you want? Let go of me!

Why are you arresting me?

The alliance of Western Qi and the Northern Realm is a reality.

You are going to the Northern Realm whether you like it or not!

Seize her!

Your Majesty.

Mother, please calm down.

Rong Le broke the rules because she has amnesia.

She must fulfil this marriage with or without her memories.

Mother, the Northern Realm is far from here.

She might never have a chance to return if she leaves.

Rong Le is hurt and suffering from injury.

It's only reasonable if she refuses to go.

As for the marriage arrangement,

maybe we should delay it.

The army of Chen is advancing on our borders.

There are still skirmishes within our land.

We have no means to fight the enemies.

The fate of this nation is hanging by the thread.

If we ally with the Northern Realm,

Chen will be pincered by both of our nations.

They will retreat tactically.

I simply don't understand.

Why are you still hesitating on making the decision?

As for the war with Chen,

I will come up with a strategy.

But Rong Le is suffering from wounds and amnesia.

The matter with the marriage...

needs more time to be considered.

In the end, it's all about her.

I was kind enough to spare your life and crowned you the princess.

Now, I still have the power to make you die a slow death.

Mother, please show mercy.

The date for the wedding is a week from now.

I shall order the servant to place that poison wine in the main hall.

Mother.

Why must you do this?

You can either send her on a litter to the Northern Realm...

or you can prepare for my funeral a week from now.

The choice is yours.

Your Majesty.

Rong Le?

Rong Le?

-What do you want? -Don't be afraid.

I will not send you away for a marriage alliance.

I will sneak you out of here now.

Fear not.

I am taking you to a place.

Once you are there,

everything will be clear to you.

You lived here for quite a while once.

You liked this place.

Do you like it?

So that reminiscence does not linger,

so that sorrow never lasts.

How do you know?

Are you suspecting that...

these words weren't written by your hands?

Come with me.

These handwritings seem similar to mine.

The writings on the wall are mine.

Rong Le, you were very fond of my handwriting.

You always tried to copy the way I write.

The words on these papers...

are the writings you copied...

while you were having free time.

This little hut does feel familiar to me.

If I were a delicate princess that grew up in the palace,

why does it feel so alien to me?

You were born and raised in the Cold Harem.

Your mother was a peasant with mesmerizing beauty.

But he offended my father and was banished.

She was already pregnant with you.

Eight months later, she gave birth to you in the Cold Harem.

That is why the Empress Dowager was so mean to me.

She went through some accident.

Her face was scarred.

It changed her personality as well.

I see.

Rong Le, you suffered a lot in the past.

But you were stubborn.

A royal guard once received the kindness of your mother.

During your time in the Cold Harem,

you secretly learned some martial arts from him.

So, I wasn't some kind of delicate lady at all.

That is why I have so many calluses on my hand.

When we first met each other,

we were still children.

I remember you said that...

if anyone ever tries to pick on me,

you would be the first to stand up for me.

Why didn't you tell me any of these earlier?

Rong Le.

I don't really want you to remember these unpleasant memories.

But I never thought...

you would grew suspicious of me.

The genesis of thoughts is nothing but an illusion.

You need to trust your heart.

You must believe that...

I am the person...

that wishes to see you happy the most.

Rong Le.

These were your favourite flowers.

What's wrong? Are you all right?

-Are you all right? -I am fine.

Your Majesty!

Your Majesty, I must send you back now.

Take Rong Le with you.

You are severely wounded, we must go now!

Take Rong Le with you and go!

Yes.

Are you all right?

Brother! Wake up!

Brother! Xiao Sha,

head back to the palace! Hurry up!

Yes!

Your Majesty wished to cheer Princess Rong Le up...

and even took the risk of sneaking her out of the palace.

But you were ambushed by the assassins of Chen.

Are you happy now?

Take Xiao Sha out of here.

Punish him with eighty beatings.

Thank you for sparing my life.

Stop.

Come with me.

As of now, the land is in turmoil.

War ravages the nation.

The land of Qi is not rich with resources.

Our army is weak.

The national treasury is almost empty because of the war.

We should be having peace to recover from the loss.

But as you can see now,

all the new recruits in the army...

are either too old or ill for battle.

Sending them to face the force of Wei and Chen...

is as good as a suicide mission.

It's either the marriage...

or the war with enemies?

Correct.

If you can feel no guilt while they are sent to their deaths,

if you could bear to see His Majesty fight for this nation...

despite all the pain he is carrying...

and in the end has his head hanging over the city gate,

then I hope...

you could live to be a witness of this tragedy.

Why did you come back?

It would be nearly impossible to leave the palace again.

Drink the medicine.

Your Majesty, we are short on troops and crops.

The people are running out of resources.

The marriage alliance with the Northern Realm can save us.

Your Majesty, the marriage is the best viable plan we have.

If Your Majesty is unwilling to give up the Princess,

I shall gladly send my daughter instead.

I cannot allow that!

Silence, all of you!

The peace of Qi...

is not to be traded with a woman's life!

Your Majesty, for the sake of Qi,

I shall send my daughter in Her Highness' place.

I am willing to do the same.

You...

Need I remind you...

that I am the Princess of Qi!

If anyone is going, it should be me.

Brother.

I heard the Northern Realm is wealthy and powerful.

They have an abundance of resources.

Rather than listening to all the officers' complaints...

and the Empress Dowager's loathing, maybe I should go.

I might change my life for the better.

Brother, I made you some tea.

Try it out.

Come on.

Try it out.

Try it out.

Come on.

Is it good?

Indeed.

Rong Le.

Thank you.

Your Majesty, medicine for Princess Rong Le.

Rong Le.

It's the advice from the royal physician.

You need to take this medicine every month regularly.

It helps to regain your memories.

Greetings, Princess Rong Le.

Your Highness, look.

This bridal robe is beautiful.

Look at the fabric and its texture.

Your Highness, please forgive me.

I was thinking Your Highness might miss His Majesty a lot.

I was trying to cheer you up...

so you won't be frustrated by this arrangement.

Your Highness, please forgive me.

I know it's my mistake.

After we moved to the Northern Realm,

I wonder when will we be back again.

After our nation prospered,

you can come home eventually.

As for me,

I have been alone my entire life.

I can be a servant anywhere.

Ling Yue, while you are with me,

don't think of yourself as a servant.

Order by His Majesty.

As the good will of His Majesty...

for forming an alliance with the Northern Realm,

Princess Rong Le shall be sent for the sake of the marriage alliance.

In hope that Prince Li of Northern Realm, Zong Zhen Wu You...

and the Elder Princess of Qi, Princess Rong Le...

can live in harmony,

and lead a life happily ever after.

The end.

At ease.

Much obliged, Your Majesty.

I carry this jade pendant ever since I was a child.

Take this with you.

It shall keep you safe for me.

Brother, remember not to stress yourself too hard.

Take care of yourself.

-Xiao Sha. -Yes!

From now on,

you shall be Princess Rong Le's personal bodyguard.

Heed her orders.

Keep her safe.

I shall protect Her Highness to the day I die.

I bid you farewell, Brother.

Rong Le.

I heard the man Princess Rong Le is going to marry...

is Prince Li of the Northern Realm.

He is the favourite son of the Emperor.

I heard he has a dashing look and strong figure.

Lian Xin, if Prince Li is such a great person,

why isn't he married yet until now?

Well, I don't know.

Prince Li of Northern Realm, Zong Zhen Wu You...

may be living in seclusion...

and rarely interferes with matter of Imperial Court,

but according to our spies in Northern Realm,

Prince Li is actually...

a man of great intelligence and tactics.

Once, General Fu Chou of Northern Realm...

pacified the skirmish at southern outskirts with 30 thousand soldiers...

while the enemy was strong with over a hundred thousand warriors.

He overcame the enemy that outnumbered them.

It was all thanks to Prince Li's strategy.

Maybe being married to this man is not so bad.

Your Highness, that mask cannot be removed if you wear it.

It could be a bad omen.

The sedan of Princess Rong Le has arrived.

I, Yang Wei, welcome the arrival of Princess Rong Le.

Why isn't Prince Li here to welcome the bride himself?

Well...

A moment, please.

Princess Rong Le travelled all the way here.

Yet you refuse to welcome her into your palace.

You are clearly looking down on us.

We are starting to doubt your sincerity...

for the marriage alliance between our nations.

Please, don't take this wrongly.

His Highness has work to see to at this moment.

He couldn't manage to come here in time for the welcome.

Please, we apologize for this.

Prince Chen arrives!

Your Highness.

At ease.

So, Princess Rong Le from Western Qi is in the sedan?

Greetings, Prince Chen.

I heard rumours about your hideous look and odd temper.

Which is why you are yet to be married until now.

But surprisingly, you do have a pleasant voice.

Lian Xin.

I appreciate the praise, Prince Chen.

Perhaps my voice is the only aspect of me that is decent.

Rumour has it you are ruthless and stubborn.

You are a lady without manner.

From what I see here, that might not be the case.

At least you do possess the manner a princess should have.

At least you know your place here.

Your Highness.

I welcomed Princess Rong Le's bridal sedan.

I was hoping Your Highness would set out...

to welcome our honourable bride.

If my brother doesn't want her here, nothing can be done.

Trust me, you might as well just go back.

You know the temper of Wu You well enough.

If you anger him,

-I doubt I can save your neck. -But...

Order from the Emperor, welcome Princess Rong Le to the palace.

I am Princess Rong Le of Western Qi.

It's my honour to meet Your Majesty.

At ease, Princess.

Rise.

Much obliged, Your Majesty.

Greetings, Princess Rong Le.

Pleasure to meet you, Your Highness.

I wonder why you are wearing that mask.

This is the custom of Qi.

The bridegroom must take off this mask himself on wedding day.

I hope Your Majesty is not offended.

In that case, it won't be an issue.

Your Majesty, Prince Li is...

What happened?

The servants at his manor said that...

Prince Li is taking a rest.

His Highness won't be coming here.

-Wu Yu. -Yes.

You and Captain Xiang of Royal Guards will go to the manor.

Bring him here with any means necessary.

Should you fail, there will be no place for you in Imperial Court.

Are you serious? I don't need to be here again?

You will spend your life guarding the royal tomb in western county.

Father.

You know Wu You's temper well.

He is just...

Fine, your wish is my command.

Father, Wu You is here.

Prince Li arrives!
