The Imperial Doctress Episode 2

Your Majesty, Your Highness.

Commander Cao from the Eastern Depot
entered my manor without permission.

He was extremely rude.

My mother suffered a deadly
stroke because of it.

I implore Your Majesty and
Your Highness to be my judge.

Is there such a thing?

Cao Jixiang...was just
picking flowers for me.

I feel apologetic that he had
disturbed your elderly mother.

How about this. She shall receive the imperial
mandate and be granted Noble Lady of the first rank.

And let's just end it here.

Your Majesty.

How can you treat imperial
mandates so lightly

and hand them out at will?

Even when it comes to bestowing mere titles, you
just couldn't stay out of my business could you?

Very well then go ahead.
Interfere all you want.

I shall just return to my chambers
and entertain my crickets.

This...

Your Majesty!

Father...stop burning them.

I promise I'll never look at
these medical texts again.

So please just stop
burning these books.

In the past few years I've been
away guarding the Northern borders.

and have not raised
nor taught you well.

Instead an opportunity was created
for your Grandmother to spoil you.

Now you've grown to become an unruly
kid who will do things at will.

I cannot allow this
to go on any further.

Over the next two days I shall arrange for a tutoring momo to teach you how to
become a proper maiden. T/N: "-momo" is a term used to address older female servants

And have you understand that
maidens from honourable families

absolutely have no place
in that medicine business.

Yes...I understand.

From now on...

You are forbidden in anything to do with medicine whether
it is learning or secretly reading on medicine books.

And you absolutely not to give anyone
a medical diagnosis for any reason.

Or else I will break your
legs even if I have to !

But- Yunxian! Just listen.

Y...yes

I shall obey.

Grandma didn't you say you
would think of a way?

As a woman, there are many duties
and expectations we must adhere to.

But...but I still
have lots to learn!

Ever since I was young you taught me to
never give up and to finish what I started.

So this applies too doesn't it? It would be a disgrace
if I don't finish learning all that I set out to do.

Let's just say if I were
to see Madam Xu again,

She will definitely ask me

"Since our Elderly Madam took
the prescription you gave her,

- she is feeling much better..."
- Wait..wait

You...you why would you have
given her a prescription?

You...you didn't you say you only
gave Lady Xu a bloodletting?

Well I...under those
circumstances

...Madam Xu begged me so I...
only wrote a quick prescription

.. wrote a quick prescription?!

How can you simply give out a
prescription just like that?

Tell me quickly, what kind of
prescription did you give her?!

She had a stroke didn't she?

So I gave her...let's see

Antelope horn powder, abalone
shell, ocher and prunella.

Turtle shell, root of
herbaceous peony...

Ridiculous! How can you recommend
these to Old Madam Xu ?

What's wrong Grandmother?

Didn't the manual say that these
are all remedy for strokes?

Zisu! Zisu!

Madam, are you looking for me?
Zisu !

Hurry to Xu Manor and tell them quickly that Elderly
Madam Xu should stop using that prescription right away

And tell them...today's weather is not suitable
for the use of such prescribed medicine

Regardless you must absolutely make sure they must
not continue with Yunxian's prescription any more !

Do you understand? I
understand...understand

Quickly go! Yes Madam

Grandmother, what
exactly did I do wrong?

Even though those medicine can
be used for treating strokes

they are meant for
obstructing Yang positivity.

But you said at that time,
madam Xu was pale-looking,

her lips were turning purplish,
her limbs were cold,

those are clearly symptoms
of Yin negativity illness.

So you must use Su
combination fragrant pills

or phlegm removing
soup to be effective.

How could this be?

These things, I've just
recently explained to you.

You, where in your mind
did you store them?

At that time, it was
really quite confusing.

I was also quite anxious.

Grandma, madam Xu,

will she be fine?

That consumption won't be
as bad as to kill her.

But I'm afraid the delay of
remedy for her illness...

Mother,

we haven't seen each other
for three years already.

How have you been?

You don't have to worry.

At any rate, mother is
still a Consort Dowager.

In contrast, how did you
get hurt like this?

I'm fine.

Just occasionally get a little
hurt, it's perhaps a good thing.

Mother, do you know

Empress Dowager secretly
sent for me this time,

is for what purpose?

I know.

You know? - Yes.

Empress Dowager and the Emperor
have been at odds for some time.

Lately, their situation
has become worse.

That's why Empress Dowager
has some thoughts.

Empress Dowager has mentioned
these things to me.

If not, how could I have left the Zhu
Manor and be here to look after you?

Mother, since you know,

why didn't you send me a letter
through the horse messenger?

If it wasn't because Empress Dowager
has threatened me with your life,

I wouldn't have taken such
huge risks to come to Beijing.

Mother has no other options.

Empress Dowager watches
me very closely.

Moreover,

the arrangement made by Empress
Dowager will not be wrong.

Mother,

do you also hope I will
become the Emperor?

That's for sure!

Mother came into
this slavery of sin,

and has already suffered
for over a decade,

not just without being bestowed a noble title, but I was
also chased out of the palace when I was pregnant with you.

Till today, I am still
not able to return,

and could only live
in the Zhu Manor.

I've also implicated you, causing you
to leave for France at 13 years of age.

Yu er,

if you can become the Emperor, then
mother will become the Empress Dowager!

At that time, no one will
dare to bully us again.

We will also not have to
suffer separation again.

Meeting only once every
two to three years...

Yu er.

Mother,

how can you think like this?

I'm also doing this
for your good.

Have you forgotten

how older brother saved
me at Taiye Pond?

Have you forgotten that the first thing older
brother did when he ascended the throne

was to grant you the
position of Consort Dowager?

Older brother treats us so well.

How can I depose him?

But he is becoming
increasingly frivolous.

He never listens to Empress
Dowager's teachings,

and even ordered people
to assassinate you.

The assassins from Eastern Depot
dare not do it in public.

They probably did it without
older brother's permission.

Moreover, older brother
isn't a cowardly Emperor.

When we studied together as children, Grand
Tutor Yang often complimented older brother,

saying he had the makings
of a brilliant Emperor.

Even though he and the Empress Dowager are
divided regarding political opinions,

that isn't a reason
to depose him.

Mother.

You've only thought about how
wonderful it is to become Emperor.

Do you know that a rebellion
counts as high treason?

Careful of your words.

We are in Duke Wang's manor.

Mother.

Let's not get ourselves
involved in any of this.

When I recuperate from my wounds,
I will return to Chengzhou.

I will think of a plan to
invite you over as well.

That won't work.

Since you're here already,

why don't you just meet
the Empress Dowager?

Benevolent Medicine Buddha,

this disciple isn't skilled enough,
and has given a wrong prescription.

Please make your power be felt, and
preserve the health of Madam Xu.

May the merciful
Buddha preserve us.

What's happened?

Something...something
went wrong?

No, nothing's wrong. Madam
Xu didn't tell me anything,

but her maid told me that Old Madam's
illness relapsed several times.

Later, it was all thanks to Supervisor Liu
from the Imperial Faculty of Medicine

who wrote a new prescription,
helping Old Madam to recover.

Everything's okay,
everything's okay now.

Hang Manor

Grandmother.

I made a mistake.

Don't apologise to me.

Apologise to Old Madam Xu.

She's an elderly
lady over seventy.

After suffering for a few more
days due to your oversight,

she may have lost a few years of
her life if worst came to worst.

Okay. I will receive punishment
for my own mistakes.

When I get there, I'll take whatever
punishment they mete out to me.

Stop there.

So rash and careless.

That should not be part
of a girl's personality.

Since they haven't sought you out yet,
it means they're not blaming you yet.

Zisu said it was imperial physician
Liu who helped cure Old Madam Xu.

I know of that person.
He's a kind-hearted one.

They probably knew the prescription
was given by an immature young girl

and they thought of something
to help cover up your mistake.

But I don't want to teach you
any more medicine after this.

You can't. Grandmother, you
must continue to teach me.

I know I made a mistake.

But you also said that there has not been a physician
who hasn't made a mistake in prescriptions.

As long as I learn properly, I
won't make such a mistake again.

Grandmother.

Father doesn't allow
me to learn medicine

but you know why I want
to learn medicine.

I promised older brother.

Have you forgotten?

Grandmother, I know
I made a mistake.

Don't worry.

From now on, I will only set
my mind on learning from you,

and will not give diagnoses and

prescriptions as I please. Okay?

I don't have any other siblings.

Do you have the heart to let the
medical skills of the Tan family

be buried like this?

I swear,

I will definitely be more
careful in the future

and will never make such
careless mistakes again.

Since you have promised me,

you must stick to your word.

I will, I will.

I will go back now, and
relearn the medical texts.

I promise that
within three months,

I will remember all
the herbal medicines,

their specific usages
and contraindications.

It's okay.

You may get up now.

Miss, Miss.

Is everything okay now?

I can finally stop worrying.

Miss. The problem has been resolved.
Why are you still so unhappy?

Everytime I am reminded of the
fact that I almost killed someone,

I cannot stay happy.

But Old Madam Xu
has recovered now.

She's an elderly lady -

she won't recover from
strokes quickly either.

Perhaps she didn't even eat
the medicine you prescribed.

Moreover, if you didn't help
release her blood flow in time,

her illness would've
become even worse.

You can't say that.

Zisu.

I think I'm pretty stupid.

My older brother
was really bright.

He entered the Imperial Faculty of
Medicine when he was 15 years old.

Why am I so unlike him?

Miss, I don't know much.

But I do know that

the more experience the physicians
have, the better they become.

Young Master is a man,

and has always followed Old Master
around, administering care to patients.

He's seen more, so it is no wonder
that his skills have also improved.

You're right.

Unfortunately, I'm a lady,

so can only stay in the manor.

I can't even tell others
I understand medicine.

I can only help you recover
from simple headaches.

Have you found it?

I've found the madder plant.

Your Highness.

Princess.

I've heard that you want to leave the
city - but it's very dangerous out there.

It's okay.

I've already transferred
guards from the Zhu Manor.

You're still wounded.
What if it relapses?

It's just that I must
leave the city tomorrow.

Rest assured, Princess.

I will definitely
take care of myself.

Otherwise, aren't I wasting your effort
when you're trying so hard to save me?

It's good that you know.

During the time of yin (3am to 5am), the
lung meridian is especially active.

So during dawn,
people sleep well.

They will also wake up looking
healthy and feeling energetic.

Look here.

This is the lung meridian,
and the natural meridian.

This...

Yunxian.

Yunxian?

Grandmother, I'm listening.

Yunxian, what's wrong?

I see you space out
quite often these days.

You seem skinnier.

Am I?

Perhaps the day is too hot.

I don't really have
a good appetite.

What exactly is wrong? Tell me.

Grandmother. I heard from Zisu

that Old Madam Xu still
hasn't recovered fully.

These days I always
have nightmares.

I dream that I accidentally
killed Old Madam Xu.

Just this one matter has
caused you so much worry?

Strokes are different
from colds.

Unilke people that suffer from strokes, people who
have colds would feel better after taking medicine.

Moreover, Old Madam Xu
is very elderly already.

It is normal that her
illness relapsed.

Furthermore, she may not have fallen
ill from taking your medicine.

But I gave her a prescription.

Just learn from your mistakes.

Yunxian, let me tell you.

After teaching you
for so many years,

your skills have already
exceed those of

the casual physicians outside.

But if you are still stuck in the
mistakes you made in the past,

it will be really hard

for you to improve.

Okay. We'll stop here for today.

If I teach you too much,

you won't remember much either.

How about this.

Since the day seems fine,

I'll get Fang-momo to take you to the Medicine Buddha and worship him
tomorrow. T/N: "-momo" is a term used to address older female servants

Some things require you to
figure it out yourself.

It's great that you chose to come to
us to worship the Medicine Buddha.

Though our temple may be small, burning
incense sticks here are very effective.

Many noble madams will donate oil and free the
animals, hoping for a peaceful year to come.

What's wrong with him?

You may not know,

but our abbess is kind-hearted, and often takes in those
who aren't wealthy enough to seek out a physician.

Then how are you
going to cure him?

Incense powder from the Yongqing
Convent has miraculous properties.

He'll recover shortly after he
drinks some green bean soup.

Incense powder can staunch blood flow,
but cannot cure his malignant sore.

This place doesn't seem to
have herbal medicines either.

I have it!

Pull some of the
swallow's nest down.

Crush it and pour some oil on it before
covering his wound. It should help.

Swallow's nest? That will work?

It will. The Thousand Gold Pieces Formulary said that one of swallows' nests properties
is its cold nature, T/N: Medical Encyclopaedia created by Tang Dynasty physician.

which especially cures malignant sores.
Quickly.

How can I reach
something so high up?

What's so hard about that? Look for a tall
ladder, and ask someone to hold it down for you.

- Go and find a ladder - I'll
get it for you. - This...

You have a merciful heart.

I give you my thanks.

Yuantong, find a ladder and get someone
to take down the swallow's nest.

I shall.

Zhitong,

take the young Miss to the inner halls
so she can worship with some incense.

I shall.

Young Miss,

that was the Abbess Jingci.

It is an honour
that Abbess Jingci

personally invited you to
worship in the inner hall.

Don't run, catch her!

She went this way.

- Stop her! - Miss.

Miss, get up!

Stop there.

- Stop her - Drop it.

Put it down. Put it down.

Give me some incense powder.

I beg you.

- Just give me some incense powder. A
little is enough. - Incense powder?

Our Madam...our Madam
is about to die!

No, no!

Don't take it in.

- Let her go first.
- I beg of you. - Miss, don't cry.

Isn't it just some incense powder?
There's no need to steal.

Our Madam suffered a miscarriage

due to extreme fatigue.

Many methods were tried, but her
blood flow couldn't be staunched.

I heard that the incense powder given to the Medicine
Buddha in the Yongqing Convent is the most effective

so I came here.

But...the abbesses
barred me from entering.

What use is there in using incense powder for
a miscarriage? Quick, go find a physician.

Since you call your mistress Madam, you
must be from an official's household.

Why are you just thinking
of using incense powder?

We've asked a physician,
but there's no use.

Our Master was the
Governor of Xi'an.

Because he offended Eunuch Fan,

he's currently awaiting
trial at home.

Master is an incorruptible official, which is why
he doesn't have the money to find good physicians.

Which is why...

Governor of Jiangxi...

awaiting trial...

Is your Master the well-known Yu Qingtian, Official Yu Dongyang? T/N: Qingtian
= Used to describe an extremely upright and honest government official

Official Yu Dongyang?

Young lady, stand
while speaking.

Get up.

I didn't understand
what you just said,

but Miss, since you
understand medicine, can you

come with me to look at Madam
for the Medicine Buddha's sake?

You can't.

I can't. I'm not a physician.

I don't have the skills
to treat your Madam.

Haven't I told you? Take
some taels of silver

and seek out medicine woman
Wang on Yandai Sreet.

Tell her you need medicine for
blood stasis after a miscarriage.

She will definitely
be able to treat it.

Quickly, go. Don't
waste anymore time.

But...medicine woman?

Our Master is heavily biased
against those people.

Even if I bring one,

he won't allow them
to treat Madam.

Moreover, it's so far
from Yandai Street.

I beg you.

You know my Master is
an upright official.

This time, it's because he wanted to right the
injustices laid upon the people of Jiangxi,

which is how he
offended Eunuch Fan

and come to this state.

Our pitiful Madam has suffered
so much following him around.

Miss, you can't
leave her to die.

It's not that I
refuse to help you.

It's because I really
can't treat people.

I beg you. I will kowtow to you.

Don't do this, don't...

- I'll just take a look for you.
- You can't!

Miss, have you forgotten what
Master told you last time?

You cannot go.

But Official Yu is
an upright person.

When a false charge was laid against Father in the Northern
regions, Official Yu didn't even know Father personally,

yet was willing to
help him in court.

You still can't.

Have you forgotten the
issue with Old Madam Xu?

Jiejie, I beg you. T/N: "-jiejie" is an
endearing term used to address older females

Please allow your Miss to go
take a look at our Madam.

I beg you.

- I'm kowtowing to you, I beg you.
- Don't...

Please save Madam's life.

I'm telling you, Fang-momo
is still waiting outside.

- Miss, I implore you to be
clear-headed. - I beg you.

Think about it. Jiuli Station is at
least fifty kilometres away from here.

Moreover, Fang-momo won't
let you go either.

I beg you.

- Please help our Madam.
- What can I do?

You want to go to Jiuli Station?
I can help.

Where are you from, you creep?
Get lost.

My carriage is the
fastest in the Capital.

I can promise you will reach Jiuli
Station in less than an hour.

Do you want to go?

Who are you？

Me? I am the world's
most carefree person,

and specialises in nosing
around other people's affairs.

- Yuanbao. You're making a ruckus again.
- Abbess.

Abbess.

Miss Hang, don't be afraid.

He is Zheng Qi, my nephew.

He didn't know that you
came here to worship,

which is why he came
in without notice.

For my sake,

please do not blame him.

Abbess, you are too polite. I...

I'll pretend I've
never seen him.

Don't be fooled by his rashness.

He is still quite reliable.

Official Yu is an
upright official.

If Miss understands medicine
and can save Madam Yu's life,

then your kindness
is beyond measure.

I can promise that

if you allow him to escort you to Yu
Manor, you will return within four hours.

But...Fang-momo
is still outside.

You don't need to
worry about this.

I will send someone to tell her

that I believe you
are a fated one,

which is why I kept
you here to copy the

Sutra of the Vows of
the Medicine Buddha.

Okay. Let's stop talking.

I decided to help you

because you seem to have a
courageous personality.

So...tell me clearly whether
you're going or not.

Miss, we are ladies.

How can we follow a
strange man around?

I'll go. We'll leave right now.

You are straightforward.
I like that.

How is it? The carriage
is quite fast isn't it?

Don't reply. Abbess Jingci has
stated that he loves to joke around.

The more afraid you
are, the happier he is.

What are you two doing?

What are you doing?
Do you have manners?

Why are you following the
code of ethics so tightly?

I've already seen your
Miss' beautiful face.

I'll marry your Miss first,

then send you over to be
a woodcutter servant.

What are you talking about? I'll
call for help if you continue.

Call for help, as
loud as possible.

I just don't know who
will come and save you

in the wilderness.

Don't be afraid.

He'd only dare to
make nasty remarks.

What. You think I'm
not brave enough

and too afraid to touch you?

Mister, can you please
drive it faster?

If we can get there early, I'll definitely give you two
taels of silver so you can have a drink afterwards.

What did you do?

Quchi acupoint, more often
known as the funny bone.

As long as I knock the right place,
it'll cause numbness and pain.

Young Sir Zheng, if
you want to touch me,

you'll have to show
me your skills.

Stop the carriage.

If you don't have me, the
carriage won't be able to you.

Let's see if you're
still so pleased.

A joke is a joke. We cannot
delay an important matter.

If you're angry, I'll apologise.

But we must continue on -
otherwise it'll be too late.

I refuse to go.

I still haven't touched you. How
can I let you go so easily?

What do you want to do?

Young Sir Zheng, please, don't be like
this. My Madam won't be able to hold on.

I don't care whether your
Madam lives or dies.

Enough.

Where are you going?

Young Sir Zheng,

I used to think
you were like me,

that you respected Official
Yu's honest personality,

which is why you offered to
escort me to the Yu Manor.

Before we left, Abbess Jingci repeatedly told me
that though you seemed frivolous on the outside,

you're actually a kind-hearted young
sir willing to help those in need.

This is why I didn't follow the code of
ethics and decided to let you escort me.

But on the journey, you do not worry that someone's
life is on the line, only thinking of joking around.

You are simply an
irresponsible person.

Though I am a woman, I'd
rather walk there myself.

I'd be embarrassed to use
the same carriage as you.

Zisu, get off the carriage.

Walk? Walk there?

But there's still
a long way to go.

Don't be afraid. How you came, we'll
go back using the same method.

They all say Abbess Jingci is someone who has reached and understood The
Way. Daoist concept where one understands the fundamentals of the Universe

In my opinion, it is embarrassing
that she has a nephew like you.

Let's go. We won't
beg him for help.

- What are you doing?
- Let go of my Miss!

Let her go! What are you doing?
Yu Manor

You are the one that
wants to treat my wife?

Not me. It's her.

Master, this is Miss Hang. She's
very skilled in medicine.

After hearing that Madam has fallen
ill, she especially came to help.

Didn't you avoid the physicians
because they were male

- and couldn't give Madam
proper treatment? - Nonsense.

Where in the world are
women seen as physicians?

I am thankful that you two

came all the way here.

However, my wife's illness
isn't of major concern.

Please return.

She said your wife's blood
flow could not be staunched.

How can it not be
a major concern?

Official Yu. My skills are adequate.
Can you please believe me?

Let me in to treat your wife.

Miss.

From your mannerisms, I can tell you're
a lady from an official's household.

How can you mix with people
like medicine women?

You don't wear a silk cover,

and walk in and out with a man.

It will hurt your reputation.

What nonsense are you
spouting, you old fogey?

Official Yu. Medicine women also
save lives. Please let me in.

Madam, Madam, what's wrong?

Madam!

Thistle root,
motherwort and angelica

are all herbs that
help staunch blood.

With some acupuncture,
she should be fine.

Why won't it work?

The physician said that he needed
to administer acupuncture,

but Master didn't let
him, saying that

it is a disgrace for unfamiliar men and
women to come into such close contact.

Nonsense.

The acupoints Zusanli, Sanyinjiao
and Duyin are found on the leg,

but Madam's life is on the line
- yet your Master actually...

Forget it. Saving her
is more important.

The blood flow has stopped.
It's stopped!

Madam, you're finally awake.

I'm not dead yet.

Madam.

Who are you?

Madam Yu, I am a physician.

Rest assured. Everything's fine.

Madam, you scared me to death.

Madam.

31.5 grams of
donkey hide gelatin

31.5 grams of goldthread

15 grams of angelica

31.5 grams of safflower

9 grams of root bark
from a peony tree

2.5 grams of fried ginger

15 grams of poria (type
of edible fungus)

Official Yu.

This prescription is called the Regulating
Energy and Activating Circulation Soup.

Simmer the ingredients with water, and
drink it consecutively for seven days.

If Madam still bleeds, then add 15
grams of charred phoenix-tail fern.

Thank you, Miss Hang.

It's just that...

donkey hide gelatin...

donkey hide gelatin...

it is quite expensive,

but you must rely on it
to enrich the blood.

I can decrease the amount?

Isn't it just some silver?

Take it.

Why are you still standing there?
Go buy the medicine.

Young Sir. Though I
am impoverished,

but I stick to my set of
incorruptible principles.

I dare not take the
silver you have offered.

Incorruptible principles?

The consequence of doing that

is letting your wife die

from not having enough
money to buy medicine.

There are things that
gentlemen can and cannot do.

Bull crap. If I didn't drive my carriage at the fastest
speed, your wife had already died from extreme loss of blood.

What. Aren't you a keen
follower of rules?

Then why aren't you taking into account the reservations
between men and women and freely talking to her?

I am old enough

to be Miss Hang's father.

The sage once said, men past forty could do
what is expedient in extreme situations.

Then why didn't you
follow that before?

Your wife almost died,

and you still didn't let the male physicians
come into close contact with her.

You also looked down
upon the medicine women.

Are the code of ethics, reservation between
men and women and difference in status

are more important
than your wife's life?

The reservation between men and women were taught by
the sages. How can we not follow their teachings?

People's lives are the most
important thing in the world.

Before a life, even the Emperor
and deities are nothing.

As long as you they can
save your wife's life,

- then no matter what identity, they are
miracle physicians. - Great! That was great!

Miss Hang. I respect you
for having saved my wife,

which is why I am
continuing to respect you.

Now,

please take your leave.

What? You want to drive
her away after using her?

This is what the upright
Official Yu does?

I do not know who you are.

I only decided to come here

based on your reputation.

I didn't think that you are like
the other old fogeys in court.

Like what? You also
don't have a brain.

What sages? No wonder

you were persecuted by Fan
Hong to such a degree.

Though I am not mighty person,

but I do not want to spend time
with an old fogey like you.

You? You what? Let's go.

Madam,

Madam, wake up. Madam!

What's wrong?

I scraped it when I got off
the carriage. It's okay.

- What are you doing?
- What do you mean what am I doing.

Did you think I was
interested in you?

I'd rather take an
ordinary woman by force.

You're learning medicine.
If you leave your wound be,

when a scar forms,
you'll cry to death.

- I don't need you to worry.
- Who wants to worry about you?

Who wants to worry about you? If
it wasn't for the Abbess, I...

Madam.

Master.

Do not argue with Young
Sir Zheng and Miss Hang.

If you want to blame
someone, blame me.

If I wasn't so frail,

I wouldn't have burdened you.

Madam, it is I who has
become a burden to you.

You've been married
to me for 25 years,

yet you haven't even worn
a single golden hairpin.

Now that you're so ill,

I can't even invite a good
physician to treat you.

Yu Dongyang. Do you
have a conscience?

This young girl just
saved your wife's life,

yet you just called her
an unworthy physician.

You really...

Who told you two to come back?

Official Yu, I offended you greatly.
Please forgive me.

However, if it wasn't
for Young Sir Zheng

or me, your wife that has accompanied
you through wind and rain

without complaint
could very well

have died due to
your conservatism.

When that time comes,

will the code of ethics between
men and women give you another

empathetic and
understanding wife?

That is all I have to say.

Your Excellency, please
consider my words.

Miss.

Official Yu is really obstinate.

He even said you weren't
a good physician.

He wasn't wrong.

There are no previous cases
of women becoming physicians.

You're still speaking for him?

Zisu is right. He's just
an obstinate old man.

He is only capable of following
the teachings of tutors.

If I didn't drive my
carriage so fast,

his wife would've moved
onto the afterlife already.

You said he only
follows the herd,

but the words you used to
reprimand Official Yu just then

were similar to what I told you.

Since when?

It's alright to admit
your mistakes.

I was able to save Madam
Yu due to your help.

When I return to Yongqing Convent,
I will tell Abbess Jingci

to compliment you more.
Is that good enough?

Who wants her compliments?
I'm not a child.

But...you can tell Abbess to
make some osmanthus honey.

I love eating that.

And you said you weren't a kid.
Such a glutton.

But Official Yu
is quite pitiful.

When I was boiling
water in the kitchen,

I could see that rice
had almost run out.

It's because Official Yu
is too upright and honest

that caused his titles to be abolished
and awaiting trial at home.

I must let Father
know about this.

Perhaps, he can put in a good
word for Official Yu in court,

- or beg for pardon.
- You're right. Exactly.

Beg for pardon?

You have to know, Yu
Dongyang offended Fan Hong.

He's the pet eunuch
of Empress Dowager.

He also has an edict from the deceased Emperor
pardoning him from punishment by death.

I believe your father is only a Xuanwu
General of the junior fourth rank.

He is as weak as a sesame seed.

Don't forget - he didn't even
appreciate your kindness back there.

Whether he appreciates
it is his matter.

As long as he is a loyal official
who works for the people,

then I must help him.

Help him? How?

Do you really think you're
a heaven-sent goddess?

If you really want to help,
then drug the Empress Dowager

and make sure she suffers
from heavy illness.

Then the injustices laid upon
Official Yu will be undone.

Why does it sound like that

you hate Empress Dowager
even more than Official Yu?

Could it be that you
committed a crime

and offended her?

Don't make wild guesses.

I've heard that though
Empress Dowager is strict,

she is still a kind person.

I can tell from your clothing that you
must be from an honourable family.

You can ask someone familiar with the Empress
Dowager to beg for pardon on your behalf.

For example, someone like Duke Wang.
Perhaps she'll forgive you.

Hush!

What do you know?

Who wants her forgiveness?

♫ When that day arrives, we will
return to familiar places ♫

♫ Appreciating the colourful world, and

♫ When that day arrives, we will
