Episode 23

22
00:01:36,000 --> 00:01:40,200
Ever since I met him, it seems as if

23
00:01:40,200 --> 00:01:44,600
everything is related to him.

24
00:01:44,600 --> 00:01:49,800
Slowly, I became accustomed to his existence.

25
00:01:49,800 --> 00:01:53,900
I became accustomed to having him and I've also become accustomed of...

26
00:01:56,800 --> 00:02:00,200
and I became accustomed to involuntarily thinking about him.

27
00:02:00,200 --> 00:02:02,400
Then that's love.

28
00:02:03,400 --> 00:02:05,800
Love?

29
00:02:05,800 --> 00:02:07,500
This is love?

30
00:02:12,200 --> 00:02:17,000
Before, before there was someone I liked.

31
00:02:17,000 --> 00:02:19,700
but that person betrayed me.

32
00:02:21,600 --> 00:02:25,200
I originally thought I would be very sad.

33
00:02:25,200 --> 00:02:29,100
But in reality, it was more disappointment.

34
00:02:30,000 --> 00:02:33,200
I asked myself, was this love?

35
00:02:33,200 --> 00:02:36,400
I wasn't sure either.

36
00:02:36,400 --> 00:02:39,300
So when you asked me if I like him,

37
00:02:40,160 --> 00:02:42,030
I don't know either.

38
00:02:46,140 --> 00:02:47,640
Your Majesty.

39
00:02:50,300 --> 00:02:52,900
Jian Xue, you can leave.

40
00:02:56,000 --> 00:02:57,100
You...

41
00:02:59,170 --> 00:03:01,230
You heard it all?

42
00:03:03,200 --> 00:03:05,400
This is not fair.

43
00:03:05,400 --> 00:03:07,700
You asked her to come set me up.

44
00:03:08,600 --> 00:03:11,800
You already know my feelings.

45
00:03:11,800 --> 00:03:14,800
But I don't know what you are thinking.

46
00:03:16,500 --> 00:03:17,900
Sit.

47
00:03:24,100 --> 00:03:25,900
What do you want to ask?

48
00:03:36,540 --> 00:03:37,750
I...

49
00:03:44,060 --> 00:03:46,460
I want to know...

50
00:03:51,800 --> 00:03:56,900
I want to know, what feelings do you have towards me?

51
00:03:57,800 --> 00:03:59,800
Do you want to know the truth?

52
00:04:02,400 --> 00:04:03,570
You...

53
00:04:05,200 --> 00:04:10,600
Are very smart, very special. In these years,

54
00:04:12,000 --> 00:04:14,800
I have never seen a woman like you.

55
00:04:16,500 --> 00:04:21,800
You're rebellious and sly, but you have justified virtues,

56
00:04:21,800 --> 00:04:25,400
Who would give up their life for their friends.

57
00:04:25,400 --> 00:04:29,900
So from the beginning, I had an interest in you.

58
00:04:34,000 --> 00:04:35,400
Just...

59
00:04:40,900 --> 00:04:43,600
after a while of being with you and seeing much of you,

60
00:04:43,600 --> 00:04:46,000
everything will no longer be fresh.

61
00:04:47,100 --> 00:04:49,900
In the end, the kind of person a man wants by his side

62
00:04:49,900 --> 00:04:54,600
is someone who is obedient and appeases me.

63
00:04:54,600 --> 00:04:57,500
You, do you understand?

64
00:05:18,170 --> 00:05:20,440
Why do you laugh?

65
00:05:21,640 --> 00:05:24,710
When I was locked in the Dense Beam Palace Hall,

66
00:05:25,620 --> 00:05:28,210
I thought I wouldn't be able to escape.

67
00:05:29,160 --> 00:05:30,990
But...

68
00:05:34,360 --> 00:05:38,780
But the first person to appear in my mind was you.

69
00:05:41,400 --> 00:05:44,600
In that moment, I asked myself

70
00:05:45,740 --> 00:05:48,420
if I liked you.

71
00:05:51,660 --> 00:05:53,680
It is rather funny.

72
00:05:56,000 --> 00:05:58,800
Thank you for telling me this.

73
00:05:58,800 --> 00:06:04,000
I understand now how stupid I was.

74
00:06:05,480 --> 00:06:07,910
And thank you for your confession.

75
00:06:08,900 --> 00:06:10,800
I will take care of things well.

76
00:06:10,800 --> 00:06:12,900
How will you take care of things?

77
00:06:17,700 --> 00:06:22,500
I will definite repay the help I received.

78
00:06:26,000 --> 00:06:28,800
From now on, I won't bother you anymore.

79
00:06:29,700 --> 00:06:32,100
I don't need you to repay your gratitudes.

80
00:06:35,400 --> 00:06:38,200
You are in my way right now.

81
00:06:38,200 --> 00:06:43,000
I just wish you...would disappear quickly.

82
00:06:43,000 --> 00:06:44,600
As for the seal in your body...

83
00:06:44,600 --> 00:06:49,700
There's no need. My business has nothing to do with you anymore.

84
00:07:10,200 --> 00:07:14,000
Look at you, how did you mess things up!

85
00:07:14,000 --> 00:07:17,400
How can you use the black color for the Winter Clothing Festival?

86
00:07:17,400 --> 00:07:20,400
This festival is a happy occasion.

87
00:07:20,400 --> 00:07:24,200
It's the day when His Majesty will choose his queen.

88
00:07:24,200 --> 00:07:26,900
So stupid! Watch out or you'll be beaten up.

89
00:07:26,900 --> 00:07:29,600
This is really... go away now!

90
00:07:29,600 --> 00:07:30,600
Yes, yes.

91
00:07:30,600 --> 00:07:33,000
Hurry up! Seriously.

92
00:07:33,000 --> 00:07:36,400
I don't look for a moment and he makes a mess.

93
00:07:36,400 --> 00:07:38,500
Be careful!

00:13:35,950 --> 00:13:40,050
He is the son of Yan Lie, the Sect leader of Xuanyuan.

161
00:13:40,050 --> 00:13:43,680
Young and talented. He was just appointed as an Official.

162
00:13:43,680 --> 00:13:46,120
No wonder he has such an extraordinary air.

163
00:13:46,120 --> 00:13:49,140
He is obviously a descendant of a respected family.

164
00:13:49,140 --> 00:13:54,290
He and the Prefecture Princess are a perfect match.

165
00:13:54,290 --> 00:13:56,970
We are all impressed.

166
00:14:05,900 --> 00:14:08,330
This is my husband's first time in the capital city.

167
00:14:08,330 --> 00:14:13,360
In the future we'd appreciate help from you.

168
00:14:13,360 --> 00:14:17,740
May I offer a toast to thank you first?

169
00:14:17,740 --> 00:14:22,020
Prefecture Princess, you are too humble. Mister Yan is obviously an elite.

170
00:14:22,020 --> 00:14:26,390
If he enters the court as an official, it will be our nation's luck.

171
00:14:26,390 --> 00:14:30,390
Let's drink up!

172
00:14:35,600 --> 00:14:38,200
<i> Not bad, not bad.</i>

173
00:14:38,200 --> 00:14:41,370
Thank you, sirs.

174
00:14:43,100 --> 00:14:46,180
<i> Come, come.</i>

175
00:14:46,180 --> 00:14:49,140
<i> That's right.</i>

176
00:14:50,800 --> 00:14:54,090
<i>You have a good memory.</i>

177
00:14:55,900 --> 00:14:57,660
Get lost!

178
00:15:10,500 --> 00:15:13,250
Did the young lady just then

179
00:15:13,250 --> 00:15:18,640
look better than me because she's young and cute?

180
00:15:21,900 --> 00:15:26,940
There's so much people. Stop messing around. Come, I'll toast you.

181
00:15:32,000 --> 00:15:34,230
Get a fruit.

182
00:15:38,900 --> 00:15:42,300
Alright. I'll get a fruit.

183
00:15:49,500 --> 00:15:51,330
Feed me.

184
00:15:57,100 --> 00:15:58,680
Alright.

185
00:16:12,700 --> 00:16:15,950
<i> His Majesty, arrives!</i>

186
00:16:52,000 --> 00:17:00,400
<i>Timing and Subtitles brought to you by Fuyao's Court Team @ Viki.com</i>

187
00:17:15,800 --> 00:17:19,170
Why isn't Lady Fair here yet?

188
00:17:23,200 --> 00:17:27,710
Madam, my lady is too ill to even get up.

189
00:17:27,710 --> 00:17:29,510
Your Majesty, this...

190
00:17:29,510 --> 00:17:32,770
She doesn't feel well. Let's not force her.

191
00:17:32,770 --> 00:17:35,000
In a while, get a doctor and let them take a look at her.

192
00:17:35,000 --> 00:17:36,560
Yes.

193
00:17:40,800 --> 00:17:43,640
You Majesty, the auspicious hour has arrived.

194
00:17:43,640 --> 00:17:45,370
Start.

195
00:17:47,800 --> 00:17:51,920
It's the auspicious hour.

196
00:17:51,920 --> 00:17:57,210
Winter Clothing Festival now begins.

197
00:17:57,210 --> 00:18:01,130
Start the music.

198
00:18:29,300 --> 00:18:33,340
<i> It's really great.</i>

199
00:18:41,200 --> 00:18:42,830
Not bad.

200
00:18:47,300 --> 00:18:50,900
<i> Look at how well they dance.</i>

201
00:19:04,300 --> 00:19:06,600
<i> Look at her.</i>

202
00:19:09,700 --> 00:19:12,260
<i> Allow me to toast you.</i>

203
00:19:16,800 --> 00:19:22,430
<i> - Eat some more. 
 - Sure.</i>

204
00:19:25,000 --> 00:19:27,620
I'll go out for a second. I'll come back later.

205
00:19:35,030 --> 00:19:38,300
<i> This is great.</i>

206
00:19:38,300 --> 00:19:40,040
<i>What did you say?</i>

207
00:19:42,400 --> 00:19:44,620
He's the one who told me to leave.

208
00:19:44,620 --> 00:19:48,240
Now you want me to stay. Are you in cahoots to play me?

209
00:19:48,240 --> 00:19:51,060
Miss, stop being angry.

210
00:19:51,060 --> 00:19:54,340
Young Master, has his reasons.

211
00:19:54,340 --> 00:19:58,470
I'm doing this on my own, and he'll surely scold me.

212
00:19:58,470 --> 00:20:01,800
But, I really have to tell you something.

213
00:20:01,800 --> 00:20:03,320
What is it?

214
00:20:06,300 --> 00:20:10,600
Do you remember that night when he went to find the Earth Absorbing Bell for you?

215
00:20:12,300 --> 00:20:15,480
You only know that he found it, but you didn't know

216
00:20:15,480 --> 00:20:20,810
he was badly hurt after being hit 3 times by the First Princess.

217
00:20:20,810 --> 00:20:26,480
I have followed him since childhood. All these years, I have never seen him care for someone so much.

218
00:20:26,480 --> 00:20:29,210
I've never seen him helping another person

219
00:20:29,210 --> 00:20:33,170
with such willing self sacrifice.

220
00:20:33,170 --> 00:20:38,720
But he clearly... clearly pretended to not care.

221
00:20:38,720 --> 00:20:42,530
He did it for your safety.

222
00:20:45,200 --> 00:20:50,590
He knows you're wounded and doesn't want you endangered more. But,

223
00:20:50,590 --> 00:20:54,990
his plan and his own safety will now become uncertain.

224
00:20:54,990 --> 00:20:57,270
He wouldn't tell you any of this.

225
00:21:01,500 --> 00:21:06,970
You mean, he doesn't want me in danger,

226
00:21:06,970 --> 00:21:09,810
so he deliberately treated me like that?

227
00:21:12,700 --> 00:21:16,290
- Miss, let me finish talking. 
 - What else is there to talk about?

228
00:21:16,290 --> 00:21:20,370
Winter Clothing Festival has started. I don't want to be late.

229
00:21:26,700 --> 00:21:29,920
Thank you, Miss.

230
00:21:38,300 --> 00:21:41,860
<i> This must be the Prime Minister's nephew-in-law.</i>

231
00:21:41,860 --> 00:21:43,430
<i> Get lost!</i>

232
00:21:43,430 --> 00:21:45,490
<i> That young girl</i>

233
00:21:45,490 --> 00:21:49,060
<i> is young and beautiful.</i>

234
00:21:49,060 --> 00:21:51,000
<i> Feed me.</i>

235
00:22:00,800 --> 00:22:06,440
Fuyao? Fuyao, is it you?

236
00:22:12,400 --> 00:22:17,050
Sorry. I just drank some wine so I recognized the wrong person.

237
00:22:17,050 --> 00:22:18,800
Please forgive me.

238
00:22:18,800 --> 00:22:21,040
Hurry and leave.

239
00:22:26,400 --> 00:22:31,670
Thankfully the Little Tail cast that spell. Otherwise I'd be dead.

240
00:22:33,200 --> 00:22:37,330
I didn't recognize the wrong person! You're Fuyao. Even if you have a disguise,

241
00:22:37,330 --> 00:22:41,930
But I can tell from your backside, the way you look. I do not make mistakes.

242
00:22:51,040 --> 00:22:57,200
Your Majesty. The Winter Clothing Festival must have the clothes offerings, sword dances and ancestor offerings.

243
00:22:57,200 --> 00:23:01,070
There are many in attendance tonight.

244
00:23:01,070 --> 00:23:06,180
Has Your Majesty invited any sword dancers tonight?

245
00:23:06,180 --> 00:23:08,910
Why would we need sword dancers?

246
00:23:08,910 --> 00:23:14,400
Your Majesty, I heard the Ladies have many talents.

247
00:23:14,400 --> 00:23:18,470
I wonder if we can see it today?

248
00:23:18,470 --> 00:23:21,890
The Prime Minister usually organises these things.

249
00:23:21,890 --> 00:23:25,930
This... we need to ask Prime Minister.

250
00:23:25,930 --> 00:23:29,750
Your Majesty, I don't know anything about such entertainment.

251
00:23:29,750 --> 00:23:33,040
I only know to do my job to relieve Your Majesty's worries.

252
00:23:33,040 --> 00:23:34,910
Prime Minister...

253
00:23:41,840 --> 00:23:43,500
Your Majesty.

254
00:23:43,500 --> 00:23:45,210
Speak.

255
00:23:45,210 --> 00:23:50,640
I recently learned a new set of sword play that is quite interesting.

256
00:23:50,640 --> 00:23:53,160
I would like to perform for your enjoyment.

257
00:23:53,160 --> 00:23:55,760
Oh, sure!

258
00:23:55,760 --> 00:23:59,010
But, this sword play is out of the ordinary.

259
00:23:59,010 --> 00:24:01,670
I need the servants to make some preparations.

260
00:24:01,670 --> 00:24:03,170
Approved.

261
00:24:05,050 --> 00:24:06,700
Go do it.

262
00:24:06,700 --> 00:24:08,250
Yes.

263
00:24:10,280 --> 00:24:15,630
Your Majesty, this sword play came from a hermit.

264
00:24:15,630 --> 00:24:18,160
Although it's not some famous choreography.

265
00:24:18,160 --> 00:24:21,830
It's magical by the addition of the 12 Lustrous Mirrors.

266
00:24:21,830 --> 00:24:24,390
These Lustruous Mirrors are the treasures of Deep Water Nation.

267
00:24:24,390 --> 00:24:27,890
They can reflect the entire lifetime of the person standing before it.

268
00:24:27,890 --> 00:24:30,980
Although it may appear as only one person is dancing.

269
00:24:30,980 --> 00:24:35,090
But the Mirrors will make it appear as if there's a crowd of thousands.

270
00:24:35,090 --> 00:24:37,660
It's definitely unique.

271
00:24:37,660 --> 00:24:40,180
You really worked hard to get it. Alright.

272
00:24:40,180 --> 00:24:44,090
Let's show us your special performance.

273
00:24:44,090 --> 00:24:46,630
Thank you, Your Majesty.

274
00:24:46,630 --> 00:24:51,660
Your Majesty, may I offer a toast?

275
00:24:51,660 --> 00:24:54,230
Come, let's drink!

276
00:25:06,380 --> 00:25:08,330
Fuyao, do you know?

277
00:25:08,330 --> 00:25:10,760
Ever since we parted on Mt. Mystic Soul,

278
00:25:10,760 --> 00:25:13,210
I could only see you in my dreams.

279
00:25:13,210 --> 00:25:14,860
First Senior Brother.

280
00:25:16,070 --> 00:25:21,480
Because of our history, I still call you that today.

281
00:25:21,480 --> 00:25:24,910
But you are already someone else's husband now.

282
00:25:24,910 --> 00:25:27,030
It doesn't matter who you married,

283
00:25:27,030 --> 00:25:30,720
please take good care of her.

284
00:25:30,720 --> 00:25:32,850
because it's your own choice.

285
00:25:32,850 --> 00:25:36,090
It... it's not my choice.

286
00:25:37,490 --> 00:25:41,950
It's a mistake. The biggest mistake in my life!

287
00:25:41,950 --> 00:25:46,010
Fuyao, can you forgive me?

288
00:25:48,220 --> 00:25:50,720
We don't need forgiveness between us.

289
00:26:17,530 --> 00:26:22,910
Butler Cao. I noticed the colour of our place settings are all different.

290
00:26:22,910 --> 00:26:24,790
Is there a special reason?

291
00:26:24,790 --> 00:26:26,770
Of course there is.

292
00:26:26,770 --> 00:26:29,900
The Ladies, depending on their station,

293
00:26:29,900 --> 00:26:31,940
are given different treatment.

294
00:26:31,940 --> 00:26:34,030
See, you are Lady Precious

295
00:26:34,030 --> 00:26:37,400
You're the most precious and graceful,

296
00:26:37,400 --> 00:26:40,680
so all of your tableware are red.

297
00:26:40,680 --> 00:26:44,120
Lady Virtuous is a Prefecture Princess,

298
00:26:44,120 --> 00:26:47,190
so we used the blue color that they are accustomed to.

299
00:26:47,190 --> 00:26:49,610
Lady Fair uses pink tableware,

300
00:26:49,610 --> 00:26:52,100
and Lady Virtue uses white ones.

301
00:26:52,100 --> 00:26:57,480
All Ladies are given colours appropriate to their station.

302
00:27:02,890 --> 00:27:04,550
Huan'er.

303
00:27:25,660 --> 00:27:30,490
Fuyao, I know you are upset and sad.

304
00:27:30,490 --> 00:27:33,050
I gave up and left you.

305
00:27:33,050 --> 00:27:35,320
I know it's all my fault.

306
00:27:35,320 --> 00:27:39,000
I... it's all my fault.

307
00:27:40,940 --> 00:27:44,240
First Senior Brother, did you really think

308
00:27:44,240 --> 00:27:46,680
that I would still be sad?

309
00:27:48,030 --> 00:27:49,890
Then are you not?

310
00:27:54,250 --> 00:27:59,890
That's right, back at Mt. Mystic Soul, I was heartbroken.

311
00:27:59,890 --> 00:28:01,910
But the thing that saddened me was that

312
00:28:01,910 --> 00:28:05,590
my most loved and respected First Senior Brother,

313
00:28:05,590 --> 00:28:08,420
how could he betray me like that?

314
00:28:08,420 --> 00:28:11,170
I thought, wasn't this our childhood promise?

315
00:28:11,170 --> 00:28:13,560
How could you go back on your promise?

316
00:28:15,660 --> 00:28:20,210
I didn't understand anything. I was really sad.

317
00:28:20,210 --> 00:28:25,020
Thankfully, before Pei Yuan and Clique Leader were able to kill me,

318
00:28:25,020 --> 00:28:28,530
I left Mt. Mystic Soul. On my way down,

319
00:28:28,530 --> 00:28:33,540
I met many people and encountered many things.

320
00:28:33,540 --> 00:28:37,950
I finally realised that my world was so small,

321
00:28:37,950 --> 00:28:40,800
but this world is large.

322
00:28:40,800 --> 00:28:43,130
So I understand First Senior Brother.

323
00:28:43,130 --> 00:28:45,190
In order to pursue your goals,

324
00:28:45,190 --> 00:28:48,730
giving up on some feelings is nothing.

325
00:28:48,730 --> 00:28:52,620
But while I understand why a man would do this,

326
00:28:52,620 --> 00:28:54,960
I will never pine for him.

327
00:28:56,500 --> 00:28:59,280
I finally understand what I want.

328
00:28:59,280 --> 00:29:01,620
Someone who sees only me.

329
00:29:01,620 --> 00:29:03,590
No matter the lure,

330
00:29:03,590 --> 00:29:06,690
no matter what happens, would not betray me.

331
00:29:06,690 --> 00:29:12,060
Of course, I will also return that loyalty.

332
00:29:12,060 --> 00:29:16,400
I know that this person is not First Senior Brother.

333
00:29:16,400 --> 00:29:20,400
So I won't be heart broken. I'm actually glad.

334
00:29:20,400 --> 00:29:22,760
I'm glad that person isn't you.

335
00:29:23,810 --> 00:29:27,050
Fuyao...I—

336
00:29:27,950 --> 00:29:31,150
I was just confused then, Fuyao!

337
00:29:32,190 --> 00:29:34,970
Fuyao, even though I married Pei Yuan,

338
00:29:34,970 --> 00:29:38,690
But we're not truly husband and wife. I only have you in my heart.

339
00:29:38,690 --> 00:29:42,020
Fuyao, wait for me. Until I've made it.

340
00:29:42,020 --> 00:29:44,710
I...I'll give you the best.

341
00:29:44,710 --> 00:29:47,260
I'll genuinely only see you.

342
00:29:53,930 --> 00:29:55,610
First Senior Brother...

343
00:29:58,040 --> 00:30:02,860
Things from the past, let them pass.

344
00:30:05,980 --> 00:30:08,890
I'll call you First Senior Brother one last time.

345
00:30:10,900 --> 00:30:12,630
Let go.

346
00:30:30,890 --> 00:30:32,590
Goodbye.

347
00:30:39,860 --> 00:30:44,300
Where was the earring dropped?

348
00:30:45,270 --> 00:30:48,380
This Older Sister, have you seen my lady's

349
00:30:48,380 --> 00:30:49,830
earing that she dropped?

350
00:30:49,830 --> 00:30:51,470
I didn't see.

351
00:30:51,470 --> 00:30:53,990
Older sister, it's all over now.

352
00:30:53,990 --> 00:30:57,220
If it's like this, my lady will beat me to death!

353
00:30:58,090 --> 00:31:02,790
Older Sister, can you help me find it?

354
00:31:02,790 --> 00:31:04,770
It was here, it was lost here!

355
00:31:04,770 --> 00:31:07,230
But I still have to send to wine.

356
00:31:10,860 --> 00:31:13,070
Look, can you pity me?

357
00:31:13,070 --> 00:31:15,610
If I can't find it, My Lady will beat me to death.

358
00:31:15,610 --> 00:31:18,480
Can you go over there to look? I'll look over here.

359
00:31:18,480 --> 00:31:24,580
If you can't find it, this gold leaf will represent my gratitude for Older Sister.

360
00:31:24,580 --> 00:31:26,390
Okay.

361
00:31:26,390 --> 00:31:29,270
Thank you, Older Sister. Thank you, Older Sister.

362
00:31:32,030 --> 00:31:33,940
Where did it go?

363
00:31:33,940 --> 00:31:36,170
Where could the earring have went?

364
00:31:36,170 --> 00:31:41,320
If I can't find it, my Lady will really... where is that earring?

365
00:31:41,320 --> 00:31:44,490
Where did it go?

366
00:31:47,560 --> 00:31:51,150
What to do? What to do?

367
00:31:52,950 --> 00:31:53,920
I found it!

368
00:31:53,920 --> 00:31:57,230
Older Sister! I found it!

369
00:31:57,230 --> 00:31:58,780
It was here.

370
00:31:58,780 --> 00:32:00,660
Then all is well.

371
00:32:03,020 --> 00:32:04,640
Thank you, Older Sister.

372
00:32:04,640 --> 00:32:06,490
I didn't help you much.

373
00:32:06,490 --> 00:32:08,790
Older Sister, you have helped me greatly.

374
00:32:08,790 --> 00:32:12,310
Old Sister, they're in a hurry. Let's go quickly.

375
00:32:16,940 --> 00:32:19,770
I am sorry, Lady Fair.

376
00:32:19,770 --> 00:32:21,670
Why are you so careless?

377
00:32:21,670 --> 00:32:24,700
I'm sorry Lady Fair. Please don't punish us.

378
00:32:24,700 --> 00:32:26,290
It's nothing, rise.

379
00:32:26,290 --> 00:32:28,040
Yes.

380
00:33:17,650 --> 00:33:21,620
Where did you go? Why did you come back only now?

381
00:33:24,290 --> 00:33:25,820
I asked you a question.

382
00:33:25,820 --> 00:33:29,680
Where did you go? Why did you come back only now?

383
00:33:31,630 --> 00:33:32,680
I asked you a question.

384
00:33:32,680 --> 00:33:34,690
I don't want to answer!

385
00:33:36,260 --> 00:33:38,230
I want to go home!

386
00:33:43,490 --> 00:33:46,420
Have you gone mad?

387
00:33:46,420 --> 00:33:49,870
Yes, I have gone made.

388
00:33:49,870 --> 00:33:52,130
It's about time that I went mad.

389
00:34:21,010 --> 00:34:23,860
Your Majesty, I will show my routine.

390
00:34:23,860 --> 00:34:25,390
Go ahead.

391
00:34:27,760 --> 00:34:29,690
Sister, please hold.

392
00:34:34,290 --> 00:34:36,910
Your Majesty, today is Winter Clothing Festival.

393
00:34:36,910 --> 00:34:41,310
Winter Clothing Festival is not just about reminiscence. It's also about national patriotism.

394
00:34:41,310 --> 00:34:43,900
I don't have any talents.

395
00:34:43,900 --> 00:34:47,910
So I will offer a toast to show my gratitude.

396
00:34:49,150 --> 00:34:51,000
Rong'er has spoken well.

397
00:34:51,640 --> 00:34:54,820
So, let's all,

398
00:34:54,820 --> 00:34:56,950
drink the toast at the same time

399
00:35:06,020 --> 00:35:08,620
Thank you, Your Majesty.

400
00:35:34,290 --> 00:35:38,380
I'm sorry to be late. Will Your Majesty please forgive me?

401
00:35:44,200 --> 00:35:47,720
Oh, didn't I hear Lady Fair was sick?

402
00:35:47,720 --> 00:35:50,510
Why force yourself to get here?

403
00:35:50,510 --> 00:35:54,030
I was feeling terribly ill, but

404
00:35:54,030 --> 00:35:57,790
all of a sudden, I recovered. I don't know why.

405
00:35:58,290 --> 00:36:01,720
It must be because the Winter Clothing Festival is so sacred.

406
00:36:01,720 --> 00:36:03,550
All gods gave their blessings.

407
00:36:03,550 --> 00:36:06,700
And the King, the Ladies,

408
00:36:06,700 --> 00:36:09,880
and all the Officials' genuine prayers.

409
00:36:09,880 --> 00:36:13,100
I am lucky to have caught a little bit of the auspicious blessing.

410
00:36:13,100 --> 00:36:16,290
I hope I didn't disrupt Your Majesty's enjoyment.

411
00:36:16,290 --> 00:36:19,310
Lady Fair, you are indeed blessed.

412
00:36:19,720 --> 00:36:22,910
I am very gratified. Take your seat.

413
00:36:32,330 --> 00:36:35,540
The King appears to especially care for Lady Fair.

414
00:36:35,540 --> 00:36:39,640
<i> Naturally, she's the Prime Minister's goddaughter.</i>

415
00:36:39,640 --> 00:36:41,880
<i> The King obviously values her.</i>

416
00:36:41,880 --> 00:36:44,340
I thought they said the most loved was Lady Precious.

417
00:36:44,340 --> 00:36:46,410
<i> He even rewarded her with many things. How...</i>

418
00:36:46,410 --> 00:36:49,750
Now that the Ladies of Clear Goose Palace are all here,

419
00:36:49,750 --> 00:36:53,760
and we have Lady Virtuous' sword dance. Everything is now perfect.

420
00:36:53,760 --> 00:36:57,000
Then please, Lady Virtuous.

421
00:37:50,580 --> 00:37:53,440
<i>- She dances graciously.  - Agree.</i>

422
00:37:54,190 --> 00:37:57,420
<i>This is nice.</i>

423
00:38:47,940 --> 00:38:50,470
Protect His Majesty!

424
00:38:50,470 --> 00:38:54,610
-Your Majesty!

425
00:38:54,610 --> 00:38:56,620
-Your Majesty!

426
00:38:56,620 --> 00:38:58,760
Your Majesty!

427
00:38:58,760 --> 00:39:01,390
Your Majesty! Your Majesty!

428
00:39:01,390 --> 00:39:03,270
Your Highness! Your Highness!

429
00:39:03,270 --> 00:39:06,580
Your Highness!

430
00:39:08,440 --> 00:39:10,720
His Majesty is harmed.

431
00:39:10,720 --> 00:39:13,430
Your Majesty! Your Majesty!

432
00:39:13,430 --> 00:39:15,260
Release me!

433
00:39:16,060 --> 00:39:17,560
You...

434
00:39:24,800 --> 00:39:26,640
Your Majesty, I didn't deliberately do it.

435
00:39:26,640 --> 00:39:28,230
Your Majesty!

436
00:39:31,950 --> 00:39:36,140
Guards, take down Lady Virtuous who was assassinating His Majesty!

437
00:39:36,140 --> 00:39:38,650
How dare you!

438
00:39:38,650 --> 00:39:41,250
You were standing close to His Majesty have didn't protect him.

439
00:39:41,250 --> 00:39:45,800
What kind of motive do you have? Lady Virtuous causing this kind of accident, it's reasonable and usual practice that she gets arrested first and then investigate.

440
00:39:45,800 --> 00:39:49,200
How dare you ignore the manners to the king and scold in presence of the king?

441
00:39:49,200 --> 00:39:51,290
What are you coveting?

442
00:39:52,060 --> 00:39:56,330
King, I, Gao Song, have always been loyal to you.

443
00:39:56,330 --> 00:39:59,070
Ruo'er messed up her sword dance, that's because she didn't learn it well.

444
00:39:59,070 --> 00:40:02,380
But if you're saying that she is attempting to assassinate the king, then you're making unfounded accusations!

445
00:40:02,380 --> 00:40:05,490
You...
You can quit arguing.

446
00:40:06,660 --> 00:40:10,600
I don't think this has anything to do with Lady Virtuous.

447
00:40:11,490 --> 00:40:14,290
<i>What is she doing?</i>

448
00:40:19,070 --> 00:40:22,800
<i>- Really? 
 - She throws up.</i>

449
00:40:23,650 --> 00:40:26,910
I have lost all my pride today.

450
00:40:26,910 --> 00:40:28,400
I...

451
00:40:28,400 --> 00:40:30,980
I'd rather die.

452
00:40:35,110 --> 00:40:36,730
<i>That's right.</i>

453
00:40:36,730 --> 00:40:40,640
Alright, let's clean up everything here.

454
00:40:40,640 --> 00:40:43,310
Help Lady Virtuous get out of here.

455
00:40:43,310 --> 00:40:44,960
Miss.

456
00:40:51,010 --> 00:40:53,930
Your Majesty, there must be a conspiracy.

457
00:40:56,460 --> 00:40:58,710
Lord, what do you mean?

458
00:40:58,710 --> 00:41:02,090
Even if Ruo'er didn't learn it well, it wouldn't be as bad as this.

459
00:41:02,090 --> 00:41:04,860
Someone is framing her.

460
00:41:09,170 --> 00:41:10,650
The wine.

461
00:41:11,160 --> 00:41:13,520
The wine that she just drank, Your Majesty.

462
00:41:13,520 --> 00:41:15,850
There must be something wrong with it.

463
00:41:17,770 --> 00:41:20,600
You!
Yes.

464
00:41:31,880 --> 00:41:35,700
Your Majesty, there really is something bad about it.

465
00:41:38,770 --> 00:41:42,260
Who? Who is framing my daughter?

466
00:41:42,260 --> 00:41:44,600
The Son of Heaven is right above, and hundreds of officials are here as witness.

467
00:41:44,600 --> 00:41:47,580
And yet someone dares injure people

468
00:41:47,580 --> 00:41:51,070
during the night reception of the Winter Clothing Festival. This person is going against the Heavens!

469
00:41:51,070 --> 00:41:51,940
Your Majesty!

470
00:41:51,940 --> 00:41:55,100
My Lord, calm down.

471
00:41:55,530 --> 00:41:58,190
Let's make the conclusion after the results come out.

472
00:41:58,190 --> 00:42:02,060
Perhaps there is something else strange about it.

473
00:42:05,050 --> 00:42:07,190
Your Majesty, it has to be her who poisoned the wine.

474
00:42:07,190 --> 00:42:09,210
It has to be her. I'm sure.

475
00:42:09,210 --> 00:42:11,330
Sister, you must be mistaken.

476
00:42:11,330 --> 00:42:14,020
Why would I want to drug you?

477
00:42:14,020 --> 00:42:19,640
Your Majesty, please judge fairly.

478
00:42:21,580 --> 00:42:24,330
