Your Royal Highness.

Time to go.

I'm going to report my work in a detached palace.

Actually I am going to plead guilty.

It might take a few days.

After I come back, maybe I won't see you again.

I need to give everyone an answer, whether it's you or not.

Sorry.

I am the future emperor.

You should tell the crown prince who you are if necessary...

You are the future emperor.

But I am...

Your Royal Highness

You really need to take it with you?

The criminal inside will be executed at noon tomorrow.

Write this in the memorial.

Who am I?

Yes.

Who am I?

Why do you do this?

Congratulations! Finally your dream comes true.

I beg your leave.

We are colleagues.

Where are you going?

We will see again after the emperor comes back.

Minister Zhang.

Chancellor.

As I know, the crown prince is on the way to the detached palace.

He is your son in law, are you sure you are asking the right person?

I am serious.

Don't worry.

I will keep your son safe in front of the emperor.

Can you?

The crown prince went to see Zhao Yong before us.

He told Zhao Yong to report to you.

I know this.

Zhao Yong was executed.

Yes, he is dead.

But he left a confession to the crown prince.

You are a businessman.

A mere verbal statement is no guarantee.

Do you know what he wrote on his confession?

He knows all you did.

You even said that you would keep my son safe.

How can I trust people like you?

Where are they now?

Ambush.

Guards.

Get them.

Your Royal Highness, go.

I will cover you up.

Chase them.

No need.

What they want is here.

You want to assassinate the future emperor?

Your Royal Highness.

Assassinate the crown prince.

It's treason.

This is what he wants.

Zhang Luzheng.

No.

That day Zhao Yong's hands were too injured to write the confession.

He stood outside.

And he saw nothing.

He told your master out of friendship.

You should only blame your master.

He is so anxious.

Yeah.

A leopard can not change it's spots.

So you want me to exterminate the entire family

because of last-ditch struggle?

Or tell me how many warhorses you have?

You...

They have made it clear.

Let me go...

How dare you!

Do you know who I am?

You dare to arrest the important minister.

Do you have the imperial decree?

I want to see the emperor.

Can't I arrest the traitor without a decree?

Your Royal Highness.

Your Royal Highness.

You think you can sit there?

Rather than worry about me, I think you should...

Li Baizhou

Li Baizhou

You raise the army in secret and try to rebel.

You even try to murder the crown prince.

Your Royal Highness

Are you all right?

Du Heng?

I have nothing to do with this.

Zhao Yong gives you so much money.

But you...

Chancellor, are you crazy?

You slander me without evidence.

To scapegoat me, you poison Zhao Yong

according to the crown prince's instruction.

It's you, right?

You.

How dare you!

Now you still deny.

Talk nonsense here.

Where is the evidence?

You say I try to murder the crown prince, where is the evidence？

Who will expose me?

Zhao Yong confessed that he did all alone.

Even commander heard it.

Zhao Yong's private army tried to avenge him.

All of you try to defend yourselves by scapegoating me.

Right?

I have Zhao Yong's confession.

Your Royal Highness.

Just with the paper.

Today I see the most shameless man.

I want to see the emperor.

I have heard all.

Your majesty.

Your majesty.

He is right.

Where is the evidence?

Yes.

Your majesty.

I hope the department of justice will investigate it.

The crown prince has no evidence.

But the witness.

Bring him up.

Zhao Yong.

You.

Li Baizhou.

I would have died in your hands without Du Heng.

If you need me to select,

Now you are clean with him.

You should think of who will win.

And hope you will stand on the right side.

Yes.

Your majesty, please decide.

Since it becomes like this,

I'll leave the rest to crown prince.

Your majesty.

Your majesty.

This is Li Baizhou's and Zhao Yong's confessions.

We have found over a thousand horses Li corrupted.

He even raised nearly a thousand private soldiers.

We think he might plan a rebellion.

So this time not only Li Baizhou, your father in law,

even me are fooled around by you.

How many days?

From the day you left the capital,

It's been 62 days.

How are you feeling?

My crown prince.

I am very worried.

Very scared.

Too scared to sleep.

Jitter like standing on the cliff.

Walking on thin ice is the feeling of being close to power.

So you have learned from being a regent.

This time, I didn't let you down, right?

I will wait for your grace.

Even if you detest me, please trust me once.

I want to prove it to you.

You let me down so.

Father.

This time, I won't let you down.

After you know you have no retreat, can you still bear the responsibility?

Your majesty.

Yes, I can.

I believe you.

Give it back.

How are you doing?

You should go back to the capital.

I really miss...

Painful.

How are you feeling, your Royal Highness?

Chest distress.

And palpitation.

Hand out, please.

I can take the pulse for you.

Is that serious?

These days, the doctor didn't come.

They did.

But it's none of your concern.

The doctor didn't say anything?

Say what?

He should say the princess and the baby are fine?

Is she ok?

The baby is frail.

But it's stable.

Not a big deal.

What did you say?

Don't worry.

You are over worried.

I will help you...

I still have my son.

The baby is fine.

How can you?

The crown prince told me.

Who told you to do this?

Why do you work for me?

I have said,

You need to be sincere.

Your Royal Highness.

The crown prince doesn't know how you

let the doctor say the princess has a miscarriage.

Also doesn't know why.

But I want to see the crown prince.

The medicine.

I found this in your place.

It's not yours.

I also know this.

But you won't see him.

Your Royal Highness.

What did the emperor say?

What time is it now?

It's...

Almost noon.

Go back to the capital.

Maid Chen.

Since the crown prince knows this all,

why...

Don't blame him.

He just wants to scare you.

Why do you...

Because only you...

I am relieved with your confession.

It's different.

I.

You will be unrelieved because of me?

Sometimes.

I know you're lying.

I heard all your conversation yesterday.

It's the drunken gibberish.

I grow up with the crown prince.

He can't drink.

He is weak-headed.

You really think he drinks wine?

That's water.

He came here to give you water.

It's great.

I liked it.

This is not for you.

It's wine.

Never mind the princess.

Who are you?

It's past noon.

Do it.

Tell him.

I'm...

Maid Chen.

Your Royal Highness.

What are you doing?

Your Royal Highness.

What exactly is going on?

Someone wants to harm you.

If I didn't do it, I am afraid they would find someone else.

Why do I have abdominal pain?

Preserved apricots.

I told them to add ginseng while making preserved apricots.

Why didn't you tell the crown prince or me?

I am too little to be noticed.

But I have my difficulties.

So audacious.

You really have your difficulties?

Your Royal Highness.

You are going to...

I have said.

I will interrogate her in person.

Go with them.

If he punishes her, tell me.

Yes.

Eat it.

When did you know?

You told the doctor,

I told him to declare the miscarriage.

So clever.

I bluffed him, and he told me all.

You...

Teach you a lesson.

You did so many bloody things.

I think I should punish you.

I am flattered.

You just didn't tell me the truth.

Not only to teach me a lesson right?

So I am the interrogator, or you are?

Yes.

You and Zhang Shaoyun are just the bait

for minister Zhang to implore Li Baizhou.

So...

You just need to tell minister Zhang to see him, that's ok.

Minister Zhang is my father-in-law.

If I tell him to do this, would you believe it if you were Li Baizhou?

If he...

Why do you stop?

Carry on.

If he doesn't believe it,

how can he surrender...

Forget it...

You should go...

How can he surrend himself?

Let alone to know the whereabouts of the warhorses.

Warhorses.

You have found warhorses?

Yes.

Your Royal Highness

You win?

Yes.

We win.

Why are you crying? None of your business.

It hurts.

Serve you right.

All your fault.

You did this not just for the princess, right?

Why do I think...

You try to push minister Zhang out?

Zhang Luzheng is narrow-minded.

He is uncongenial with royal minister Lu.

Plus Zhang Shaoyun's prison term.

You think your father and brother can live to tell the story

with the world amnesty?

Maid Gu

This medicine is boiling.

The princess likes preserved apricots.

You should get some.

No.

Still deny.

So you are still so stubborn.

No.

The medicine in my room...

I told maid Chen to send you the medicine.

Since it's a play, you should make it perfect.

For the one who sent you the cow's milk.

A play?

I know

We have a mole in my palace.

You are the half.

I am not.

Otherwise, you won't let me go.

I let you go because I know

Both the prince and the maid have difficulties.

We have something more important than ourselves.

So I taught you a lesson.

I won't punish you.

How about it?

So we are even now.

I think I am shortchanged.

Plus this.

So we are even now.

No.

Alright.

Don't do this.

Otherwise, I think you are lying.

In my heart.

You...

Your Royal Highness

Clean yourself.

Don't worry.

I didn't tell the crown prince anything.

Don't get me wrong.

I will leave here soon.

The emperor is here.

Commander...

I.

Commander.

Now we know Li Baizhou is the traitor.

So my son...

Minister Zhang.

What do you want to say?

Commander.

Can it help me implore the emperor, spare my son's life?

Well.

I don't think it's necessary.

Commander.

Commander

Be gentle.

Don't sabotage it.

Stop it.

Zhang Shaoyun.

Go.
