I can survive till the end.
11
00:00:24,230 --> 00:00:25,600
She... is so special,
12
00:00:25,830 --> 00:00:27,360
unlike ordinary consorts.
13
00:00:27,710 --> 00:00:28,840
Was their encounter

3 are transmigration,
27
00:01:02,670 --> 00:01:04,129
and two are system-based.
28
00:01:04,400 --> 00:01:06,070
It feels a bit repetitive.
29
00:01:06,640 --> 00:01:07,640
That's only nine.
30

What about the last one?
31
00:01:09,200 --> 00:01:10,730
This transmigration novel
32
00:01:10,760 --> 00:01:12,230
is clichéd and outdated.
33
00:01:12,590 --> 00:01:14,680
Just reading the synopsis makes me cringe.

bought the copyright

and paid this much.
37
00:01:23,039 --> 00:01:24,640
It's fresh and interesting,
38
00:01:24,640 --> 00:01:26,570
like an uncut gem waiting to shine.
39
00:01:27,120 --> 00:01:29,510
You're quite
an opportunistic fence-sitter.
40

Just skim through the main plot.
57
00:02:01,430 --> 00:02:03,120
All these storylines
are basically the same.
58
00:02:03,120 --> 00:02:04,520
Why take it so seriously?
59
00:02:04,760 --> 00:02:06,920
I'm already skimming through it fast.

Well, don't be too late
61

Oh, right.

By midnight,

00:02:16,150 --> 00:02:17,680
I'll definitely be asleep.

What if it comes true?
74
00:02:32,960 --> 00:02:35,360
Then I wish I could
transmigrate into this book right now
75
00:02:35,360 --> 00:02:36,800
and ask Xie Yong'er
76
00:02:37,310 --> 00:02:39,190
what on earth she was thinking
77
00:02:39,190 --> 00:02:41,520

Oh no!

Absolutely no sense.

00:09:22,840 --> 00:09:25,200
please think carefully before you act.
175
00:09:26,480 --> 00:09:28,840
In the original story,
I was always devoted to Prince Duan
176
00:09:28,840 --> 00:09:31,030
and repeatedly turned down the tyrant.
177
00:09:31,030 --> 00:09:32,510
From now on, I need to be more careful,
178
00:09:32,510 --> 00:09:33,320
keep up appearances,
179
00:09:33,320 --> 00:09:34,600
and not break character.
180
00:09:34,600 --> 00:09:34,910
Mei.
181
00:09:35,840 --> 00:09:36,840
Help me do my hair.
182
00:09:37,120 --> 00:09:38,720
I'll handle the rest myself.
183
00:09:39,480 --> 00:09:40,480
But My Lady...
184
00:09:41,910 --> 00:09:43,710
Do you even know how to do makeup?
185
00:09:43,870 --> 00:09:45,400
Who are you looking down on?
186
00:09:56,630 --> 00:09:57,690
Come to think of it,
187
00:09:58,480 --> 00:10:00,510
Plan B is already mapped out.
188
00:10:01,080 --> 00:10:01,880
The first step
189
00:10:02,120 --> 00:10:04,650
is to win over
my new client's favor and trust.
190
00:10:05,480 --> 00:10:06,880
If I remember correctly,
191
00:10:07,270 --> 00:10:10,480
the tyrant in the original story
had a thing for the seductive type.
192
00:10:10,480 --> 00:10:12,960
After Xie Yong'er, a cannon-fodder
character, took that route,
193
00:10:12,960 --> 00:10:15,120
she gained
quite a bit of the Emperor's favor.
194
00:10:15,120 --> 00:10:17,480
And with my current looks,
195
00:10:18,000 --> 00:10:19,480
this debut is only going to
196
00:10:19,790 --> 00:10:21,120
hit even harder.
197
00:10:23,880 --> 00:10:27,660
[Yu Wanyin]
198
00:10:24,270 --> 00:10:26,070
Since there's no way to avoid it,
199
00:10:26,440 --> 00:10:28,900
I might as well turn passive
into proactive.
200
00:10:40,870 --> 00:10:43,870
In the book, Yu Wanyin was the one
who got schemed to death.
201
00:10:43,870 --> 00:10:45,120
But now that I'm here,
202
00:10:45,510 --> 00:10:46,970
you'll have to step aside,
203
00:10:47,320 --> 00:10:50,050
because I'm the one
holding the ultimate script.
204
00:10:54,670 --> 00:10:55,330
Hey, you...
205
00:10:55,960 --> 00:10:56,960
Eunuch An, right?
206
00:10:58,670 --> 00:10:59,320
May I ask,
207
00:10:59,550 --> 00:11:00,790
this bedchamber service—
208
00:11:00,790 --> 00:11:02,990
are there any rules or protocols for it?
209
00:11:04,750 --> 00:11:06,950
Your Highness, please stop teasing me.
210
00:11:08,790 --> 00:11:11,050
I'm saying I don't have much experience.
211
00:11:13,440 --> 00:11:15,790
Then I guess I have even less.
212
00:11:19,070 --> 00:11:24,580
[Yongyan Hall]
213
00:11:50,030 --> 00:11:53,830
[Plan A: Seize the female lead position
and win the male lead's heart]
214
00:11:50,790 --> 00:11:53,120
The whole process is already planned out.
215
00:11:53,320 --> 00:11:54,790
With my experience as a corporate drone,
216
00:11:53,870 --> 00:11:57,910
[Plan B: Gain the new client's trust
(the tyrant)]
217
00:11:55,600 --> 00:11:56,240
there's no way
218
00:11:56,240 --> 00:11:58,900
I can't curry favor
with this legendary tyrant.
219
00:12:03,510 --> 00:12:05,270
Greetings, Your Majesty.
220
00:12:25,600 --> 00:12:26,400
Your Majesty,
221
00:12:27,840 --> 00:12:29,040
Concubine Yu is here.
222
00:12:43,550 --> 00:12:44,750
Greetings, Your—
223
00:12:44,750 --> 00:12:45,390
Get out.
224
00:12:46,960 --> 00:12:47,270
How could—
225
00:12:47,270 --> 00:12:48,000
Drag her out.
226
00:12:49,320 --> 00:12:51,030
This scene wasn't in the original story!
227
00:12:51,030 --> 00:12:52,840
I can't fail before I even begin!
228
00:12:54,080 --> 00:12:54,670
Your Majesty!
229
00:12:54,670 --> 00:12:56,200
Your Majesty, at least look at me once!
230
00:12:56,200 --> 00:12:58,000
-If she doesn't stay to serve me,
-I don't want to die!
231
00:12:58,000 --> 00:12:59,200
she's to be executed?
232
00:13:02,000 --> 00:13:03,320
Wait, bro.
233
00:13:04,000 --> 00:13:05,130
You're the Emperor.
234
00:13:05,550 --> 00:13:07,210
Why are you asking the guards?
235
00:13:08,000 --> 00:13:09,320
Your Majesty, spare us!
236
00:13:09,320 --> 00:13:10,080
Forget it.
237
00:13:10,670 --> 00:13:11,400
Let her stay.
238
00:13:12,000 --> 00:13:12,870
All of you, leave.
239
00:13:12,870 --> 00:13:13,480
Yes.
240
00:13:19,670 --> 00:13:20,440
This...
241
00:13:20,960 --> 00:13:22,360
Well...
242
00:13:22,910 --> 00:13:23,440
What's...
243
00:13:23,440 --> 00:13:24,240
going on now?
244
00:13:54,390 --> 00:13:55,910
Does a villain
245
00:13:56,510 --> 00:13:58,570
really need to be this good-looking?
246
00:14:04,360 --> 00:14:05,870
This author
247
00:14:06,440 --> 00:14:08,300
must be obsessed with good looks.
248
00:14:08,510 --> 00:14:09,240
Hey, you.
249
00:14:10,120 --> 00:14:11,180
Con-Concubine Yu.
250
00:14:12,150 --> 00:14:13,880
Make yourself a bed on the floor
251
00:14:14,150 --> 00:14:15,550
and make do for the night.
252
00:14:18,270 --> 00:14:20,870
Make a bed on the floor
and make do for the night?
253
00:14:21,510 --> 00:14:22,120
But...
254
00:14:24,120 --> 00:14:24,780
"Hey, you."
255
00:14:24,910 --> 00:14:25,570
"Hey, you."
256
00:14:26,910 --> 00:14:27,750
He called me
257
00:14:28,870 --> 00:14:29,670
"hey, you"?
258
00:14:30,840 --> 00:14:32,640
Isn't that a modern expression?
259
00:14:33,510 --> 00:14:34,150
Could it be
260
00:14:35,270 --> 00:14:36,120
he's also...
261
00:14:44,120 --> 00:14:44,920
Your Majesty.
262
00:14:46,200 --> 00:14:47,200
What else?
263
00:14:50,870 --> 00:14:51,440
How...
264
00:14:52,510 --> 00:14:53,000
are...
265

[Xiahou Dan]
267
00:15:21,150 --> 00:15:21,630
Fine,
268
00:15:23,870 --> 00:15:24,630
thank you,
269
00:15:26,320 --> 00:15:27,080
and you?
270
00:15:39,110 --> 00:15:42,710
[Yongyan Hall]
271
00:15:41,720 --> 00:15:42,960
Has Concubine Yu come out yet?
272
00:15:42,960 --> 00:15:43,630
Eunuch.
273
00:15:45,200 --> 00:15:45,840
Not yet.
274
00:15:46,120 --> 00:15:53,910
[Yongyan Hall]
275
00:15:51,440 --> 00:15:54,370
In the past,
concubines got scolded away instantly,
276
00:15:54,670 --> 00:15:56,870
but this one has managed to stay so long.
277
00:16:00,240 --> 00:16:01,570
She's quite something.
278
00:16:03,360 --> 00:16:05,490
I transmigrated here just 2 hours ago.
279
00:16:05,750 --> 00:16:06,480
At that time,
280
00:16:07,240 --> 00:16:08,500
I was lying on a cruise,
281
00:16:08,870 --> 00:16:09,870
soaking up the sun
282
00:16:10,200 --> 00:16:11,600
and drinking champagne.
283
00:16:11,630 --> 00:16:14,030
Suddenly a stupid notification
popped up on my phone,
284
00:16:14,030 --> 00:16:15,490
recommending this novel.
285
00:16:15,600 --> 00:16:16,530
One blink later,
286
00:16:17,080 --> 00:16:17,720
here I am.
287
00:16:18,510 --> 00:16:19,910
Two hours ago,
288
00:16:20,510 --> 00:16:22,320
I was on the subway
heading home from work.
289
00:16:22,320 --> 00:16:23,450
It was already dark.
290
00:16:24,670 --> 00:16:26,400
So how could you be sunbathing?
291
00:16:26,440 --> 00:16:27,240
Were you
292
00:16:27,720 --> 00:16:28,850
across the Pacific?
293
00:16:30,840 --> 00:16:31,840
I was on vacation.
294
00:16:33,910 --> 00:16:37,040
You're not one of those
legendary alpha bosses, are you?
295
00:16:38,670 --> 00:16:40,600
Whether I'm an alpha, I don't know,
296
00:16:40,670 --> 00:16:41,870
but I am a boss.
297
00:16:43,630 --> 00:16:44,240
My life
298
00:16:44,600 --> 00:16:45,930
is pretty comfortable.
299
00:16:48,630 --> 00:16:49,360
Damn it!
300
00:16:49,750 --> 00:16:50,440
How did I end up transmigrating
301
00:16:50,440 --> 00:16:52,480
to a place without even a bath heater,
302
00:16:52,480 --> 00:16:54,340
waiting to die with a brain tumor?
303
00:16:54,510 --> 00:16:55,630
Calm down first.
304
00:16:56,000 --> 00:16:58,480
Your migraines
might not be caused by a tumor.
305
00:16:58,480 --> 00:17:00,750
If it were a tumor pressing on a nerve,
306
00:17:01,120 --> 00:17:03,450
there should be other clinical symptoms.
307
00:17:03,870 --> 00:17:04,329
Really?
308
00:17:04,510 --> 00:17:05,569
I'm just guessing.
309
00:17:07,920 --> 00:17:09,440
Try to think positively.
310
00:17:09,790 --> 00:17:12,349
What if someone poisoned you
with a slow-acting toxin?
311
00:17:12,349 --> 00:17:14,109
You're quite good at comforting people.
312
00:17:14,109 --> 00:17:14,839
My pleasure.
313
00:17:15,030 --> 00:17:17,400
So have you actually
read this novel or not?
314
00:17:17,400 --> 00:17:19,260
What exactly is my situation now?
315
00:17:20,200 --> 00:17:21,240
I did read it,
316
00:17:21,829 --> 00:17:23,270
but I skimmed through it,
317
00:17:23,589 --> 00:17:24,720
not very carefully.
318
00:17:26,200 --> 00:17:27,160
Simply put,
319
00:17:27,790 --> 00:17:29,120
your name is Xiahou Dan.
320
00:17:29,720 --> 00:17:30,980
Your mother hates you.
321
00:17:31,350 --> 00:17:32,830
Your brother Prince Duan hates you.
322
00:17:32,830 --> 00:17:34,030
Your concubines hate you.
323
00:17:34,030 --> 00:17:35,400
Your ministers hate you.
324
00:17:35,400 --> 00:17:37,060
The entire country hates you.
325
00:17:38,750 --> 00:17:40,070
According to the original story,
326
00:17:40,070 --> 00:17:40,870
I hate you too.
327
00:17:41,350 --> 00:17:42,030
Gosh.
328
00:17:42,720 --> 00:17:43,240
What on earth
329
00:17:43,240 --> 00:17:45,100
did I do that was so unforgivable?
330
00:17:47,240 --> 00:17:48,500
Can I have some grapes?
331
00:17:51,070 --> 00:17:51,930
Help yourself.
332
00:17:52,200 --> 00:17:52,660
Thanks.
333
00:17:55,110 --> 00:17:56,920
The Empress Dowager
isn't your birth mother,
334
00:17:56,920 --> 00:17:58,780
so she didn't raise you properly.
335
00:17:58,880 --> 00:18:00,550
And you suffer from migraines.
336
00:17:59,230 --> 00:18:01,440
[Migraine]
337
00:18:01,400 --> 00:18:03,590
You've been stubborn, brutal,
and bloodthirsty since childhood.
338
00:18:01,490 --> 00:18:01,780
[Stubborn]
339
00:18:01,780 --> 00:18:02,620
[Brutal]
340
00:18:02,620 --> 00:18:05,700
[Bloodthirsty]
341
00:18:04,830 --> 00:18:06,430
The loyal ministers in court
342
00:18:06,440 --> 00:18:08,570
were either executed or exiled by you.
343
00:18:09,920 --> 00:18:11,830
You also implemented
a bunch of terrible policies
344
00:18:11,830 --> 00:18:13,200
that caused widespread public outrage.
345
00:18:13,200 --> 00:18:15,000
According to the original plot,
346
00:18:15,350 --> 00:18:16,880
near the end,
347
00:18:17,640 --> 00:18:18,880
you'll be killed by Prince Duan
348
00:18:18,880 --> 00:18:20,140
in the name of justice.
349
00:18:21,110 --> 00:18:22,310
How exactly did I die?
350
00:18:22,790 --> 00:18:23,920
I think...
351
00:18:25,720 --> 00:18:26,980
you got assassinated.
352
00:18:28,790 --> 00:18:30,240
The later plot was too boring,
353
00:18:30,240 --> 00:18:31,770
so I skipped several pages.
354
00:18:39,440 --> 00:18:41,830
You can still smile
knowing you're going to die?
355
00:18:41,830 --> 00:18:43,030
Now I believe
356
00:18:43,830 --> 00:18:45,960
you really are a boss who's seen it all.
357
00:18:46,000 --> 00:18:47,640
Who says I'm going to die?
358
00:18:49,070 --> 00:18:50,270
Aren't I the Emperor?
359
00:18:51,240 --> 00:18:53,310
Can't I just kill everyone
who gets in my way?

by the Empress Dowager.

00:27:13,030 --> 00:27:14,480
Don't noble ladies
546
00:27:14,920 --> 00:27:16,720
in ancient times learn to paint?
547
00:27:20,070 --> 00:27:21,400
Should we keep testing?
548
00:27:22,720 --> 00:27:24,250
Let's make it challenging.
549
00:27:28,510 --> 00:27:29,440
Your Majesty...
550
00:27:30,160 --> 00:27:31,760
All you do is write and paint!
551
00:27:32,430 --> 00:27:34,290
Don't you have any fresh talents?
552
00:27:35,400 --> 00:27:37,400
Didn't you ask us to write and paint?
553
00:27:38,200 --> 00:27:38,790
You.
554
00:27:40,590 --> 00:27:41,440
Yes, you.
555
00:27:41,960 --> 00:27:43,350
What are you muttering about?
556
00:27:43,350 --> 00:27:44,880
Play a piece of music for me!
557
00:27:51,000 --> 00:27:51,310
I...
558
00:27:51,750 --> 00:27:53,110
I can't.
559
00:27:53,640 --> 00:27:55,310
You'll have to do it anyway.
560
00:27:57,440 --> 00:27:58,240
Well...
561
00:27:58,680 --> 00:28:00,880
play something I haven't heard before.
562
00:28:01,160 --> 00:28:02,680
If I've heard it before,
563
00:28:03,680 --> 00:28:05,480
I'll have you buried on the spot.
564
00:28:08,030 --> 00:28:08,960
Your Majesty...
565
00:28:13,920 --> 00:28:14,920
Here's my chance.
566
00:28:19,790 --> 00:28:20,590
Your Majesty,
567
00:28:21,030 --> 00:28:22,890
I'm willing to play a piece for you
568
00:28:23,070 --> 00:28:24,730
in place of Noble Consort Wei.
569
00:28:25,000 --> 00:28:26,460
She finally came forward.
570
00:28:30,070 --> 00:28:30,670
Thank you.
571
00:28:58,880 --> 00:29:00,680
Holding the pipa horizontally?
572
00:29:02,440 --> 00:29:03,900
Wouldn't that make it a...
573
00:29:04,920 --> 00:29:05,960
Guitar?
574
00:29:08,350 --> 00:29:13,350
What a beautiful jasmine.
575
00:29:14,270 --> 00:29:19,160
Fragrant and lovely on every branch.
-The Song of Jasmine?
576
00:29:19,920 --> 00:29:24,680
So white and sweet-smelling,
admired by all.
577
00:29:25,640 --> 00:29:30,400
-Let me pluck you.
-Definitely a transmigrator.
578
00:29:31,070 --> 00:29:34,830
And give you to someone else.
579
00:29:35,440 --> 00:29:41,720
Jasmine, oh, jasmine.
580
00:29:43,350 --> 00:29:44,000
Bravo!
581
00:29:45,350 --> 00:29:47,200
You're so good at gu—
582
00:29:47,200 --> 00:29:50,240
gusty music.
583
00:29:51,400 --> 00:29:52,330
I never expected
584
00:29:53,310 --> 00:29:54,110
Concubine Xie
585
00:29:54,720 --> 00:29:57,000
to be both talented and beautiful.
586
00:29:58,440 --> 00:29:59,840
Thank you, Your Majesty.
587
00:30:00,350 --> 00:30:01,030
It really is her.
588
00:30:01,030 --> 00:30:02,960
Prince Duan is here!
589
00:30:19,690 --> 00:30:23,720
[Xiahou Bo]
590
00:30:28,400 --> 00:30:30,730
Prince Duan has returned from the border?
591
00:30:58,880 --> 00:30:59,540
Greetings,
592
00:30:59,830 --> 00:31:00,640
Your Majesty.
593
00:31:03,960 --> 00:31:06,090
If this guy is also a transmigrator...
594
00:31:06,240 --> 00:31:06,720
Greetings...
595
00:31:06,720 --> 00:31:07,550
Then his acting skills...
596
00:31:07,550 --> 00:31:08,110
Your Highness.
597
00:31:08,110 --> 00:31:09,550
Have reached their peak.
598
00:31:23,510 --> 00:31:26,160
"These stars
are not the same as last night's.
599
00:31:27,070 --> 00:31:29,930
For whom am I standing
in the midnight wind and dew?"
600
00:31:30,590 --> 00:31:31,440
My Lady,
601
00:31:32,070 --> 00:31:33,530
I don't quite understand.
602
00:31:34,240 --> 00:31:36,510
But you should stay away from this pool.
603
00:31:37,110 --> 00:31:38,840
Last time when you fell into it,
604
00:31:38,920 --> 00:31:41,450
Physician Xiao said
you were practically...
605
00:31:43,550 --> 00:31:44,280
Don't worry.
606
00:31:44,920 --> 00:31:46,180
It won't happen again.
607
00:31:47,480 --> 00:31:48,550
Drown again?
608
00:31:48,960 --> 00:31:50,490
How could that be possible?
609
00:31:51,270 --> 00:31:52,200
Silly Ling,
610
00:31:52,590 --> 00:31:55,050
the Xie Yong'er you speak of
is already dead.
611
00:31:55,160 --> 00:31:55,920
You're all just 2D characters
612
00:31:55,920 --> 00:31:57,590
in the novel
613
00:31:57,590 --> 00:31:59,350
"A thousand trees blossoms at night
in the East."
614
00:31:59,350 --> 00:32:00,920
The story has only just begun,
615
00:32:00,920 --> 00:32:03,250
but I've already finished the whole book.
616
00:32:03,400 --> 00:32:04,130
Xie Yong'er,
617
00:32:04,720 --> 00:32:07,380
your kindness
can't buy you peace in this world.
618
00:32:07,680 --> 00:32:09,200
Let me avenge you.
619
00:32:12,590 --> 00:32:13,960
My Lady, are you upset
620
00:32:13,960 --> 00:32:15,720
because of Consort Yu?
621
00:32:16,830 --> 00:32:17,680
Consort Yu?
622
00:32:18,350 --> 00:32:18,950
Oh, right.
623
00:32:19,400 --> 00:32:22,400
That woman Yu Wanyin
has already been promoted to Consort.
624
00:32:22,400 --> 00:32:24,070
According to the book,
625
00:32:24,240 --> 00:32:26,550
she was supposed to be thrown
into the Cold Palace by the tyrant.
626
00:32:26,550 --> 00:32:27,720
But why?
627
00:32:29,550 --> 00:32:31,010
Could it be that my arrival
628
00:32:31,030 --> 00:32:32,760
caused the plot to go off track?
629
00:32:32,880 --> 00:32:33,210
My...
630
00:32:34,790 --> 00:32:35,680
It's alright.
631
00:32:36,400 --> 00:32:38,330
I'm the woman who holds the script.
632
00:32:38,720 --> 00:32:39,720
In the original story, Yu Wanyin
633
00:32:39,720 --> 00:32:41,520
ran into Prince Duan right here.
634
00:32:45,310 --> 00:32:46,840
Greetings, Your Highness.
635
00:32:50,960 --> 00:32:52,490
Greetings, Your Highness.
636
00:32:53,310 --> 00:32:55,030
Your Highness, it was my honor to hear
637
00:32:55,030 --> 00:32:57,630
your pipa performance
in the grand hall today.
638
00:32:57,720 --> 00:32:58,580
It was truly...
639
00:32:58,960 --> 00:32:59,890
unforgettable.
640
00:33:00,310 --> 00:33:01,510
Just a minor skill.
641
00:33:02,350 --> 00:33:05,280
I've embarrassed myself before you,
Your Highness.
642
00:33:06,510 --> 00:33:08,640
I don't often come to the inner palace.
643
00:33:08,640 --> 00:33:10,300
I wonder if there's a path here
644
00:33:10,350 --> 00:33:12,080
that leads to Changsheng Hall.
645
00:33:12,160 --> 00:33:13,220
It's getting late.
646
00:33:13,350 --> 00:33:14,830
I'm afraid you might take a wrong turn.
647
00:33:14,830 --> 00:33:16,890
May I guide you there, Your Highness?
648
00:33:19,550 --> 00:33:20,010
Please.
649
00:33:25,160 --> 00:33:25,880
Yu Wanyin,
650
00:33:26,720 --> 00:33:28,850
your main storyline belongs to me now.
651
00:33:57,110 --> 00:33:59,040
-Pick out all the bad leaves.
-Yes.
652
00:33:59,200 --> 00:34:00,930
-Clean them thoroughly.
-Yes.
653
00:34:06,350 --> 00:34:07,640
There's fuzz on this.
654
00:34:09,110 --> 00:34:09,960
Be careful.
655
00:34:10,190 --> 00:34:10,630
Yes.
656
00:34:11,670 --> 00:34:12,800
Everyone, hurry up.
657
00:34:13,030 --> 00:34:14,960
His Majesty and Her Highness
are waiting.
658
00:34:14,960 --> 00:34:15,840
Yes.
659
00:34:17,989 --> 00:34:20,060
[Yongyan Hall]
660
00:34:24,000 --> 00:34:25,400
What a feast!
661
00:34:45,280 --> 00:34:46,760
Is your head really hurting that badly?
662
00:34:46,760 --> 00:34:48,360
The original owner's brain
isn't working well.
663
00:34:48,360 --> 00:34:50,560
The pain must have scrambled his brain.
664
00:34:50,670 --> 00:34:52,600
Don't say such depressing things.
665
00:34:52,920 --> 00:34:55,050
There's nothing a hot pot can't solve.
666
00:34:58,000 --> 00:34:59,510
About tonight's palace banquet—
667
00:34:59,510 --> 00:35:00,510
what do you think?
668
00:35:01,710 --> 00:35:03,880
This Xie Yong'er is definitely
669
00:35:04,030 --> 00:35:05,030
a transmigrator.
670
00:35:06,070 --> 00:35:07,470
But as for Prince Duan...
671
00:35:08,190 --> 00:35:09,320
I really can't tell.
672
00:35:10,280 --> 00:35:11,940
Since Prince Duan is here too,
673
00:35:12,000 --> 00:35:12,860
Concubine Xie,
674
00:35:13,440 --> 00:35:14,320
play again
675
00:35:14,880 --> 00:35:15,680
so Prince Duan
676
00:35:16,070 --> 00:35:17,530
can appreciate it as well.
677
00:35:19,030 --> 00:35:23,760
What a beautiful jasmine flower.
678
00:35:24,440 --> 00:35:29,230
Fragrant and lovely on every branch.
679
00:35:30,670 --> 00:35:31,730
Play another piece
680
00:35:31,960 --> 00:35:32,690
to celebrate
681
00:35:33,110 --> 00:35:35,040
Prince Duan's triumphant return.
682
00:35:51,320 --> 00:35:52,000
So,
683
00:35:53,150 --> 00:35:54,800
Prince Duan
probably isn't a transmigrator.
684
00:35:54,800 --> 00:35:55,800
Not necessarily.
685
00:35:56,150 --> 00:35:58,080
What if he just doesn't like music?
686
00:35:58,400 --> 00:35:59,930
My granduncle is like that.
687
00:36:00,400 --> 00:36:01,400
You should have done
688
00:36:01,400 --> 00:36:03,400
a set of radio calisthenics for him.
689
00:36:03,960 --> 00:36:04,560
Perhaps he
690
00:36:04,800 --> 00:36:07,070
would've lost his composure right there.
691
00:36:07,070 --> 00:36:09,150
Wouldn't that expose my identity
to the enemy?
692
00:36:09,150 --> 00:36:10,010
I'm not stupid.
693
00:36:11,230 --> 00:36:13,890
Actually,
whether he's a transmigrator or not,
694
00:36:13,960 --> 00:36:14,960
I have a solution.
695
00:36:15,280 --> 00:36:15,880
What is it?
696
00:36:16,320 --> 00:36:17,180
I'll be a prince
697
00:36:17,630 --> 00:36:18,670
and give him the throne.
698
00:36:18,670 --> 00:36:20,480
It's not that simple.
699
00:36:20,920 --> 00:36:23,110
In the original story,
Xiahou Bo held a deep grudge against you.
700
00:36:23,110 --> 00:36:25,320
The throne means nothing
compared to his hatred.
701
00:36:25,320 --> 00:36:26,850
He's on a path of vengeance.
702
00:36:27,190 --> 00:36:28,280
But we are brothers.
703
00:36:28,280 --> 00:36:29,410
Aren't we siblings?
704
00:36:29,630 --> 00:36:31,160
Half-brothers, actually.
705
00:36:31,800 --> 00:36:32,660
And your mother
706
00:36:33,190 --> 00:36:34,760
had his mother killed.
707
00:36:35,630 --> 00:36:36,960
Then the Empress Dowager—
708
00:36:36,960 --> 00:36:38,000
your stepmother—
709
00:36:38,760 --> 00:36:40,490
made him your study companion,
710
00:36:40,510 --> 00:36:41,960
humiliating and tormenting him
711
00:36:41,960 --> 00:36:43,070
in every way.
712
00:36:44,590 --> 00:36:46,000
That does sound miserable.
713
00:36:46,000 --> 00:36:47,920
And with the same royal bloodline,
714
00:36:47,920 --> 00:36:49,480
in terms of looks, presence,
715
00:36:49,480 --> 00:36:50,510
talent, and cunning,
716
00:36:50,510 --> 00:36:53,360
you just can't compete with Prince Duan,
Xiahou Bo.
717
00:36:53,360 --> 00:36:55,760
You're moody and just living for pleasure.
718
00:36:55,920 --> 00:36:57,780
The world belongs to the capable.
719
00:36:57,840 --> 00:37:00,170
What right do you have
to waste your place?
720
00:37:00,630 --> 00:37:00,920
I...
721
00:37:01,280 --> 00:37:01,880
Wanyin,
722
00:37:03,110 --> 00:37:04,640
I was trying to comfort you.
723
00:37:05,630 --> 00:37:06,110
Why...
724
00:37:06,710 --> 00:37:07,960
Why did you insult me?
725
00:37:12,320 --> 00:37:12,840
Sorry.
726
00:37:13,280 --> 00:37:13,740
CEO Dan.
727
00:37:13,960 --> 00:37:15,760
My professional habit kicked in
728
00:37:16,440 --> 00:37:18,550
and I started giving
character backgrounds.
729
00:37:18,550 --> 00:37:20,070
Well, according to you,
730
00:37:21,030 --> 00:37:22,430
if he's a transmigrator,
731
00:37:23,480 --> 00:37:26,190
then we might have a chance to reconcile.
732
00:37:27,590 --> 00:37:29,150
But if he's not,
733
00:37:30,150 --> 00:37:31,150
then only one of us
734
00:37:32,960 --> 00:37:34,070
will get to live?
735
00:37:35,550 --> 00:37:36,190
Exactly.
736
00:37:36,400 --> 00:37:39,000
You've finally sorted out
the relationships.
737
00:37:43,190 --> 00:37:45,050
That makes my head hurt even more.
738
00:37:47,960 --> 00:37:50,020
Xie Yong'er, the chosen female lead—
739
00:37:50,070 --> 00:37:51,440
I can't see her true abilities.
740
00:37:51,440 --> 00:37:53,240
Xiahou Bo, the chosen male lead—
741
00:37:53,440 --> 00:37:56,700
transmigrator or not,
he's not someone to be trifled with.
742
00:37:56,760 --> 00:37:58,020
As for this Xiahou Dan,
743
00:37:58,360 --> 00:38:00,630
I haven't seen
anything exceptional about him yet.
744
00:38:00,630 --> 00:38:02,560
And he even seems a bit unreliable.
745
00:38:03,070 --> 00:38:04,510
Plus, with this headache problem,
746
00:38:04,510 --> 00:38:05,840
how long can he hold out?
747
00:38:06,840 --> 00:38:07,970
If I team up with him,
748
00:38:08,550 --> 00:38:10,550
can we really take down Prince Duan?
749
00:38:10,930 --> 00:38:13,880
[Xiahou Bo] [Xie Yong'er] [Consorts]
[Xiahou Dan] [Yu Wanyin]
750
00:38:17,880 --> 00:38:18,630
Do you think
751
00:38:19,590 --> 00:38:21,590
I should try to win over Xie Yong'er?
752
00:38:22,880 --> 00:38:24,010
She's the chosen one
753
00:38:24,110 --> 00:38:25,710
and an important ally to Prince Duan.
754
00:38:25,710 --> 00:38:27,400
If she's on our side,
755
00:38:28,030 --> 00:38:29,760
things would go much smoother.
756
00:38:29,920 --> 00:38:30,880
And think about it—
757
00:38:30,880 --> 00:38:32,070
we're all transmigrators.
758
00:38:32,070 --> 00:38:33,670
Who doesn't want to survive?
759
00:38:33,960 --> 00:38:35,920
If we can talk it out,
what's left to fight over?
760
00:38:35,920 --> 00:38:36,850
Don't you agree?
761
00:38:38,280 --> 00:38:40,140
Then go and make contact with her.
762
00:38:42,280 --> 00:38:43,740
So what am I supposed to do?
763
00:38:44,320 --> 00:38:45,400
You...
764
00:38:46,550 --> 00:38:47,880
I need to think about it.
765
00:38:50,590 --> 00:38:52,120
What's that burning smell?
766
00:38:52,230 --> 00:38:54,090
Pleasing His Majesty isn't easy.
767
00:38:54,280 --> 00:38:55,880
Perhaps behind closed doors,
768
00:38:55,880 --> 00:38:57,540
she has some special methods.
769
00:38:58,030 --> 00:38:58,840
Makes sense.
770
00:38:59,000 --> 00:38:59,800
Hurry! Hurry!
771
00:38:59,800 --> 00:39:00,510
The pot is burning!
772
00:39:00,510 --> 00:39:01,310
Water! Water!
773
00:39:14,920 --> 00:39:16,480
-I deserve to die!
-I deserve to die!
774
00:39:16,480 --> 00:39:17,140
From now on,
775
00:39:17,550 --> 00:39:19,550
no one is allowed to enter this door.
776
00:39:20,070 --> 00:39:20,530
Get out!
777
00:39:20,960 --> 00:39:21,480
Yes!
778
00:39:28,110 --> 00:39:28,910
What's wrong?
779
00:39:31,030 --> 00:39:32,560
Your acting's pretty good.
780
00:39:34,440 --> 00:39:35,670
When it comes to business,
781
00:39:35,670 --> 00:39:37,510
you always have to put on a bit of a show.
782
00:39:37,510 --> 00:39:38,710
It's all something
I learned through practice.
783
00:39:38,710 --> 00:39:40,110
I know what you can do now.
784
00:39:41,760 --> 00:39:43,290
Go turn someone to our side.
785
00:39:43,360 --> 00:39:43,710
Who?
786
00:39:44,480 --> 00:39:45,150
Xu Yao.
787
00:39:47,070 --> 00:39:48,000
This Xu Yao...
788
00:39:48,320 --> 00:39:49,980
is Prince Duan's strategist.
789
00:39:50,150 --> 00:39:53,080
He's extremely talented
and exceptionally clever.
790
00:39:53,510 --> 00:39:54,550
It's been 5 years.
791
00:39:54,490 --> 00:39:58,210
[Xu Yao]
792
00:39:55,880 --> 00:39:58,540
When will my father's false charges
be cleared?
793
00:40:01,360 --> 00:40:03,190
Bodhisattva, please bless my father
794
00:40:03,190 --> 00:40:04,720
with health and longevity,
795
00:40:05,440 --> 00:40:07,570
so he may one day return to the capital.
796
00:40:08,070 --> 00:40:08,840
Treasonous!
797
00:40:09,550 --> 00:40:11,080
I've wasted my trust in you!
798
00:40:11,320 --> 00:40:12,440
Then as you wish,
799
00:40:12,630 --> 00:40:14,480
your entire family
will be exiled 3,000 li away.
800
00:40:14,480 --> 00:40:14,870
Without my decree,
801
00:40:14,870 --> 00:40:18,810
[Senior Minister Xu]
802
00:40:15,360 --> 00:40:16,630
you shall not return to court!
803
00:40:16,630 --> 00:40:18,410
The reason he sided with Prince Duan
804
00:40:18,410 --> 00:40:19,070
was that you
805
00:40:19,590 --> 00:40:21,790
exiled his father, Senior Minister Xu.
806
00:40:22,800 --> 00:40:24,280
His father was a loyal
and upright official,
807
00:40:24,280 --> 00:40:26,190
yet you trusted slander,
pinned a false charge on him,
808
00:40:26,190 --> 00:40:28,590
and casually banished him
to a barren land.
809
00:40:28,960 --> 00:40:30,820
Xu Yao was supposed to go with him,
810
00:40:31,190 --> 00:40:33,190
but Prince Duan secretly saved him,
811
00:40:33,480 --> 00:40:36,030
had him change his name and identity,
and hide in his residence
812
00:40:36,030 --> 00:40:36,960
as a strategist.
813
00:40:37,840 --> 00:40:39,240
It's said he never gave up
814
00:40:39,550 --> 00:40:41,110
and has been quietly running around
815
00:40:41,110 --> 00:40:42,230
trying to bring his father back.
816
00:40:42,230 --> 00:40:42,800
Father.
817
00:40:49,230 --> 00:40:50,440
It's about Senior Minister Xu.
818
00:40:50,440 --> 00:40:51,970
Please come inside to talk.
819
00:40:53,960 --> 00:40:55,840
Then I'll just tell Xu Yao directly,
820
00:40:55,840 --> 00:40:57,500
"I can bring your father back,
821
00:40:57,550 --> 00:40:59,670
on the condition
that you swear loyalty to me."
822
00:40:59,670 --> 00:41:00,550
Wouldn't that solve it?
823
00:41:00,550 --> 00:41:01,800
It's not that simple.
824
00:41:02,670 --> 00:41:04,440
He would still harbor hatred
825
00:41:05,000 --> 00:41:06,000
and question you,
826
00:41:07,190 --> 00:41:07,520
"You!
827
00:41:08,190 --> 00:41:10,250
Why did you misjudge right and wrong,
828
00:41:10,320 --> 00:41:13,070
causing my father
to suffer unjust accusations?"
829
00:41:13,070 --> 00:41:13,760
I...
830
00:41:15,320 --> 00:41:17,360
was just a mad king,
831
00:41:17,880 --> 00:41:19,710
blinded and deafened by others.
832
00:41:20,710 --> 00:41:22,030
Loyal or treacherous—
833
00:41:23,110 --> 00:41:25,190
isn't it all decided by a single memorial?
834
00:41:25,190 --> 00:41:28,550
Your Majesty, you knew full well that
Grand Tutor Wei was spouting nonsense,
835
00:41:28,550 --> 00:41:30,480
yet you still believed the slander
836
00:41:31,320 --> 00:41:32,430
and exiled him.
837
00:41:35,400 --> 00:41:36,400
Xu Yao, oh, Xu Yao.
838
00:41:36,760 --> 00:41:38,290
Even today, you still think
839
00:41:38,480 --> 00:41:40,880
it was that wretched old man
who slandered your father!
840
00:41:40,880 --> 00:41:41,880
He's not that old.
841
00:41:46,320 --> 00:41:48,850
Xu Yao, oh, Xu Yao.
Even today, you still think
842
00:41:49,030 --> 00:41:51,110
it was that brat
who slandered your father!
843
00:41:51,110 --> 00:41:52,640
He's not that young either.
844
00:41:53,630 --> 00:41:54,920
Xu Yao, oh, Xu Yao.
845
00:41:55,510 --> 00:41:56,880
Even today,
846
00:41:57,190 --> 00:42:00,650
you still think it was that bastard
who slandered your father!
847
00:42:01,670 --> 00:42:02,070
You...
848
00:42:02,880 --> 00:42:04,340
You're talking nonsense!
849
00:42:06,960 --> 00:42:08,590
If a devil wears human skin,
850
00:42:09,710 --> 00:42:11,370
how can you be sure you can tell
851
00:42:12,320 --> 00:42:13,580
whether it's human...
852
00:42:14,480 --> 00:42:15,440
or a devil?
853
00:42:24,590 --> 00:42:25,990
With such acting skills,
854
00:42:27,230 --> 00:42:28,280
it'd be a waste
855
00:42:28,960 --> 00:42:30,560
if you don't become an actor.
856
00:42:43,590 --> 00:42:44,280
You...
857
00:42:45,510 --> 00:42:47,150
look different somehow.
858
00:42:49,190 --> 00:42:51,390
This is called corporate drone makeup.
859
00:42:51,440 --> 00:42:53,920
Gentle, kind, and hardworking.
860
00:42:55,190 --> 00:42:57,230
I'm going to extend an olive branch
to Xie Yong'er later.
861
00:42:57,230 --> 00:42:58,320
Looking approachable
862
00:42:58,320 --> 00:43:00,450
makes it easier to close the distance.
863
00:43:01,630 --> 00:43:02,360
Women.
864
00:43:05,510 --> 00:43:06,840
You also look
865
00:43:07,360 --> 00:43:08,490
somehow different.
866
00:43:10,150 --> 00:43:12,410
Since I'm going to
turn Xu Yao to our side,
867
00:43:12,840 --> 00:43:13,900
shouldn't I create
868
00:43:14,230 --> 00:43:15,630
a bit of contrast as well?
869
00:43:18,360 --> 00:43:19,000
Men.
870
00:43:37,440 --> 00:43:37,840
This way.
