00:01:43,636 --> 00:01:45,120
(Duke Ying's Residence)

5
00:01:46,675 --> 00:01:47,475
Third Brother.

6
00:01:49,076 --> 00:01:50,156
What are you doing here?

7
00:01:50,716 --> 00:01:51,996
I'm waiting for you.

8
00:01:52,516 --> 00:01:54,595
You must be waiting for me here

9
00:01:54,595 --> 00:01:55,749
because of the marriage today.

10
00:01:55,750 --> 00:01:56,910
My father told me this morning

11
00:01:56,910 --> 00:01:58,520
that we have been engaged
since long ago.

12
00:01:58,524 --> 00:02:00,150
You must have taught him this, right?

13
00:02:00,955 --> 00:02:02,315
Duke Ying's words

14
00:02:02,315 --> 00:02:03,436
are indeed taught by me.

15
00:02:03,796 --> 00:02:05,996
I would like to first present
the engagement letter.

16
00:02:06,595 --> 00:02:08,795
When I have passed the test,

17
00:02:09,196 --> 00:02:11,230
I will formally come
to propose marriage to Yining.

18
00:02:13,075 --> 00:02:14,795
However, if someone

19
00:02:15,276 --> 00:02:17,116
mentions my relationship with her,

20
00:02:17,195 --> 00:02:18,515
for her reputation,

21
00:02:18,595 --> 00:02:19,795
I wish that you

22
00:02:20,195 --> 00:02:21,755
consider my statement.

23
00:02:23,795 --> 00:02:25,156
Your statement?

24
00:02:27,075 --> 00:02:27,876
What is it?

25
00:02:28,716 --> 00:02:29,755
When Yining

26
00:02:29,755 --> 00:02:31,156
was fostered in Luo's Residence,

27
00:02:31,676 --> 00:02:33,116
my grandma had

28
00:02:33,116 --> 00:02:34,156
promised my marriage to her

29
00:02:34,876 --> 00:02:35,996
but she was still very young

30
00:02:36,195 --> 00:02:38,156
so it was never brought up
all this while.

31
00:02:56,795 --> 00:02:59,716
You are quite thoughtful.

32
00:02:59,996 --> 00:03:01,755
Since this is related to Yining,

33
00:03:02,676 --> 00:03:03,876
it is good for me

34
00:03:04,444 --> 00:03:05,710
to put more thought into it.

35
00:03:05,788 --> 00:03:07,020
However, I did not request him

36
00:03:07,020 --> 00:03:08,110
to deceive His Majesty.

37
00:03:08,870 --> 00:03:09,692
I was doing it

38
00:03:09,708 --> 00:03:11,310
for you to avoid criticism
in the future.

39
00:03:11,310 --> 00:03:12,300
Have you ever thought

40
00:03:12,330 --> 00:03:13,059
that if His Majesty

41
00:03:13,060 --> 00:03:15,190
charges my father with
the crime of deceiving the emperor,

42
00:03:15,195 --> 00:03:16,035
what should we do?

43
00:03:17,180 --> 00:03:18,604
I have already reported this

44
00:03:18,652 --> 00:03:19,790
to my grandma.

45
00:03:20,020 --> 00:03:21,852
I have also explained this
to the family as well.

46
00:03:21,852 --> 00:03:23,132
No one will reveal this.

47
00:03:23,355 --> 00:03:24,396
Even if Lu Jiaxue

48
00:03:24,396 --> 00:03:25,475
reported this to His Majesty,

49
00:03:25,724 --> 00:03:28,108
it wouldn't result in Duke Ying
being charged with a crime.

50
00:03:34,876 --> 00:03:36,116
Rest assured.

51
00:03:44,755 --> 00:03:45,556
Father.

52
00:03:45,996 --> 00:03:46,755
You.

53
00:03:55,795 --> 00:03:56,716
Shenyuan.

54
00:03:57,915 --> 00:03:59,116
There is one thing

55
00:03:59,195 --> 00:04:00,755
that I haven't been able to figure out.

56
00:04:01,515 --> 00:04:02,956
About Lu Jiaxue

57
00:04:03,075 --> 00:04:04,236
reporting on Wang Yuan,

58
00:04:04,236 --> 00:04:05,396
there are full of loopholes

59
00:04:05,396 --> 00:04:06,595
so why was His Majesty

60
00:04:06,595 --> 00:04:08,396
deceived by him?

61
00:04:08,676 --> 00:04:09,716
I figure His Majesty

62
00:04:09,716 --> 00:04:11,915
doesn't completely trust Lu Jiaxue.

63
00:04:12,956 --> 00:04:14,195
The incident with Wang Yuan

64
00:04:14,195 --> 00:04:15,709
involves a wide range of officials,

65
00:04:15,710 --> 00:04:17,430
and the entire court and government
are in turmoil.

66
00:04:17,436 --> 00:04:19,070
Lu Jiaxue reported Wang Yuan
at this time

67
00:04:19,075 --> 00:04:21,116
and handed over the proceeds
to the national treasury

68
00:04:21,395 --> 00:04:22,556
which in His Majesty's eyes,

69
00:04:22,916 --> 00:04:24,556
has alleviated an urgent need.

70
00:04:27,155 --> 00:04:28,755
I thought so, too.

71
00:04:29,315 --> 00:04:30,116
Therefore,

72
00:04:30,315 --> 00:04:32,195
he figured out His Majesty's mind

73
00:04:32,476 --> 00:04:34,436
so he dared to make such a bold move.

74
00:04:34,715 --> 00:04:35,796
I believe

75
00:04:36,715 --> 00:04:38,556
that he has no moves left.

76
00:04:38,996 --> 00:04:39,755
Although this step

77
00:04:40,075 --> 00:04:40,996
protected him

78
00:04:40,996 --> 00:04:42,236
for the time being,

79
00:04:42,916 --> 00:04:43,715
it also increased

80
00:04:43,715 --> 00:04:45,556
His Majesty's suspicion of him.

81
00:04:47,476 --> 00:04:48,315
Luo Shenyuan,

82
00:04:49,116 --> 00:04:50,796
you have to be grateful for this case.

83
00:04:51,395 --> 00:04:53,155
If it weren't for it,

84
00:04:53,395 --> 00:04:55,236
you wouldn't be able to
marry Yining so soon.

85
00:04:56,515 --> 00:04:57,556
Let alone a month,

86
00:04:57,755 --> 00:04:59,356
even a year would be difficult.

87
00:04:59,395 --> 00:05:00,916
You are absolutely right.

88
00:05:01,395 --> 00:05:02,549
I will definitely

89
00:05:02,550 --> 00:05:04,252
consider Yining's future more
from now on.

90
00:05:07,356 --> 00:05:08,996
I came to visit again today

91
00:05:09,436 --> 00:05:10,515
to formally propose marriage

92
00:05:10,556 --> 00:05:11,996
to Yining to the Duke.

93
00:05:14,236 --> 00:05:15,275
Is this necessary?

94
00:05:17,356 --> 00:05:19,635
Everyone knows

95
00:05:19,635 --> 00:05:21,275
that you and Yining are engaged now.

96
00:05:21,340 --> 00:05:23,500
She will definitely marry you,
it's just a matter of time.

97
00:05:23,596 --> 00:05:24,630
Why be in such a hurry?

98
00:05:24,996 --> 00:05:26,075
Rules cannot be abolished.

99
00:05:27,356 --> 00:05:30,075
You didn't agree last time,

100
00:05:30,876 --> 00:05:34,315
so I sincerely ask for
your permission again today.

101
00:05:36,476 --> 00:05:37,275
Good,

102
00:05:37,676 --> 00:05:39,315
you know the etiquette.

103
00:05:39,835 --> 00:05:40,676
You can ask

104
00:05:40,876 --> 00:05:43,596
your parents to come
to propose a marriage tomorrow.

105
00:05:44,955 --> 00:05:47,275
Thank you, Duke Ying.

106
00:05:55,676 --> 00:05:57,275
I tried so hard,

107
00:05:57,660 --> 00:05:59,916
but in the end, I was just helping him
for his wedding.

108
00:05:59,996 --> 00:06:01,155
This is a done deal.

109
00:06:01,155 --> 00:06:02,436
Let's just let it go.

110
00:06:06,556 --> 00:06:07,676
Done deal?

111
00:06:08,300 --> 00:06:09,990
Back then, my military merits
were taken,

112
00:06:10,195 --> 00:06:11,835
and I was nearly framed and crippled.

113
00:06:11,996 --> 00:06:13,436
If I had accepted my fate,

114
00:06:13,755 --> 00:06:15,436
I wonder where I would be buried by now,

115
00:06:15,635 --> 00:06:16,509
how could there

116
00:06:16,510 --> 00:06:18,076
be the current
Marquis Anbei's Residence?

117
00:06:19,596 --> 00:06:20,876
The me today

118
00:06:21,876 --> 00:06:23,476
is no longer the Lu Jiaxue back then.

119
00:06:26,476 --> 00:06:27,635
I will not accept fate.

120
00:06:28,060 --> 00:06:30,070
However, there is not much room
for a turnaround.

121
00:06:30,075 --> 00:06:30,835
We...

122
00:06:36,715 --> 00:06:37,515
Not much room

123
00:06:38,300 --> 00:06:39,910
does not mean there is no possibility.

124
00:06:40,556 --> 00:06:42,275
Has anything I did

125
00:06:43,476 --> 00:06:44,996
and got

126
00:06:45,835 --> 00:06:47,036
ever been easy?

127
00:06:56,870 --> 00:06:58,268
When Luo Shenyuan marries Yining

128
00:06:59,356 --> 00:07:01,436
in a month,

129
00:07:03,556 --> 00:07:07,116
I will not let him have his way.

130
00:07:13,955 --> 00:07:14,476
Alright.

131
00:07:14,835 --> 00:07:16,395
Place all the jewelry in the boxes.

132
00:07:16,395 --> 00:07:17,876
Be careful not to bump into anything.

133
00:07:18,155 --> 00:07:19,395
Be more alert,

134
00:07:19,395 --> 00:07:20,676
and we can't make any mistakes,

135
00:07:20,676 --> 00:07:21,515
understand?

136
00:07:22,036 --> 00:07:22,556
Madam,

137
00:07:22,556 --> 00:07:23,715
you should take a rest.

138
00:07:23,755 --> 00:07:25,356
You've been busy all morning.

139
00:07:25,356 --> 00:07:26,155
I'm not tired.

140
00:07:26,436 --> 00:07:27,635
Shenyuan and Yining's wedding

141
00:07:27,635 --> 00:07:28,549
is set for next month.

142
00:07:28,550 --> 00:07:29,932
We have to make the most of our time

143
00:07:29,980 --> 00:07:31,532
and give Yining everything she deserves.

144
00:07:31,796 --> 00:07:32,596
Yes, Madam.

145
00:07:36,635 --> 00:07:37,476
Mother.

146
00:07:37,796 --> 00:07:38,596
Old Madam.

147
00:07:39,676 --> 00:07:40,269
Old Madam.

148
00:07:40,270 --> 00:07:42,108
No need for formalities,
carry on with your work.

149
00:07:42,156 --> 00:07:42,764
Take a look.

150
00:07:43,395 --> 00:07:44,275
Hairu,

151
00:07:44,636 --> 00:07:47,270
are you moving all the family's
belongings out here?

152
00:07:47,476 --> 00:07:48,755
Shenyuan is marrying Yining,

153
00:07:48,755 --> 00:07:49,476
and Yining sees me

154
00:07:49,476 --> 00:07:50,676
as her mother for so many years.

155
00:07:50,676 --> 00:07:51,955
I'm so happy these days

156
00:07:51,955 --> 00:07:53,036
that I can't even sleep.

157
00:07:53,436 --> 00:07:54,755
We must prepare more betrothal gifts

158
00:07:54,755 --> 00:07:56,036
for Yining.

159
00:07:56,036 --> 00:07:56,596
Yes.

160
00:07:56,596 --> 00:07:57,315
When Old Madam heard

161
00:07:57,315 --> 00:07:58,876
that Young Lady Yining was coming back,

162
00:07:58,876 --> 00:08:00,635
she was so joyous.

163
00:08:01,036 --> 00:08:03,036
Ever since Yining moved
to Duke Ying's Residence,

164
00:08:03,195 --> 00:08:05,515
Old Madam has been
thinking about her day and night.

165
00:08:05,755 --> 00:08:07,036
It is great

166
00:08:07,324 --> 00:08:08,790
that Young Lady Yining is returning.

167
00:08:08,790 --> 00:08:10,660
She will be able to stay in
Luo's Residence every day

168
00:08:10,668 --> 00:08:12,492
and stay by Old Madam's side
all the time.

169
00:08:12,596 --> 00:08:13,515
Hairu,

170
00:08:13,755 --> 00:08:14,835
you just

171
00:08:14,835 --> 00:08:16,476
completed Yixiu's wedding arrangements

172
00:08:16,476 --> 00:08:18,036
and you have to prepare

173
00:08:18,036 --> 00:08:19,635
for Shenyuan's wedding with Yining now.

174
00:08:20,395 --> 00:08:21,635
Appreciate your hard work.

175
00:08:21,796 --> 00:08:23,596
Mother, it's not hard work for me,

176
00:08:23,676 --> 00:08:25,275
I'm just too happy.

177
00:08:27,011 --> 00:08:29,995
(Dowry List)

178
00:08:33,035 --> 00:08:33,876
That's it?

179
00:08:34,635 --> 00:08:35,476
That's everything?

180
00:08:36,076 --> 00:08:37,515
This was prepared in accordance

181
00:08:37,515 --> 00:08:39,035
with Duke Xu's daughter's dowry list.

182
00:08:39,035 --> 00:08:41,236
Just the clothing and jewelry
will fit five carts.

183
00:08:41,915 --> 00:08:42,716
Let me ask you this,

184
00:08:43,395 --> 00:08:44,476
how many daughters

185
00:08:44,476 --> 00:08:45,795
does Duke Xu's Residence have?

186
00:08:46,795 --> 00:08:47,596
Seven!

187
00:08:47,635 --> 00:08:49,109
Yining is the only daughter

188
00:08:49,110 --> 00:08:50,124
in Duke Ying's Residence.

189
00:08:50,220 --> 00:08:50,950
Listen,

190
00:08:50,956 --> 00:08:52,035
prepare twice as much

191
00:08:52,035 --> 00:08:53,116
of this dowry list.

192
00:08:53,196 --> 00:08:53,996
Besides,

193
00:08:54,396 --> 00:08:56,070
give the few estates
in the eastern suburbs

194
00:08:56,155 --> 00:08:57,035
to her, too.

195
00:08:57,212 --> 00:08:58,524
If we talk about common practices,

196
00:08:58,540 --> 00:09:00,716
we have to wait for
Luo family's betrothal gift to arrive

197
00:09:00,732 --> 00:09:03,090
before we prepare the dowry
according to betrothal gifts' value.

198
00:09:03,100 --> 00:09:04,870
Should we wait a little longer?

199
00:09:05,035 --> 00:09:05,996
What common practice?

200
00:09:06,675 --> 00:09:08,869
Wei family doesn't follow customs.

201
00:09:08,870 --> 00:09:10,508
No matter how much
is the betrothal gift,

202
00:09:10,508 --> 00:09:11,692
we're giving this much as dowry.

203
00:09:11,755 --> 00:09:12,635
This is final.

204
00:09:13,996 --> 00:09:15,275
Listen to the Duke.

205
00:09:15,395 --> 00:09:16,755
Prepare more for dowry.

206
00:09:16,755 --> 00:09:17,155
Old Madam.

207
00:09:17,155 --> 00:09:18,275
It's not much.

208
00:09:18,915 --> 00:09:19,716
Yes, Old Madam.

209
00:09:20,356 --> 00:09:22,275
Why are you still here? Go now.

210
00:09:22,476 --> 00:09:23,275
Yes, Duke Ying.

211
00:09:25,155 --> 00:09:27,316
By the way, I have another two sets

212
00:09:27,356 --> 00:09:29,275
of hair ornaments made
of jadeite and gold.

213
00:09:29,596 --> 00:09:31,116
They were all rewarded by the palace.

214
00:09:31,435 --> 00:09:33,035
Add these to Yining.

215
00:09:33,035 --> 00:09:34,915
Then I thank you on behalf of Yining.

216
00:09:35,035 --> 00:09:35,755
I have also

217
00:09:35,755 --> 00:09:37,236
prepared some more gifts for her.

218
00:09:37,236 --> 00:09:38,996
I'll add them to the gifts later.

219
00:09:39,515 --> 00:09:40,316
Mingzhu,

220
00:09:40,635 --> 00:09:42,155
when the Imperial Guards

221
00:09:42,155 --> 00:09:43,596
threatened with swords,

222
00:09:43,795 --> 00:09:45,836
you and Yining were unified

223
00:09:45,996 --> 00:09:47,376
to protect our house.

224
00:09:47,795 --> 00:09:48,596
Don't worry,

225
00:09:48,755 --> 00:09:50,035
your wedding's dowry

226
00:09:50,155 --> 00:09:51,996
will be even more.

227
00:09:52,275 --> 00:09:53,275
Thank you, Father,

228
00:09:53,755 --> 00:09:55,476
but I won't get married.

229
00:09:55,476 --> 00:09:57,675
I want to stay by Grandma's side.

230
00:10:00,996 --> 00:10:02,236
Good.

231
00:10:08,716 --> 00:10:09,316
Shao'an.

232
00:10:10,395 --> 00:10:11,196
What are you reading?

233
00:10:11,836 --> 00:10:12,675
Young Master,

234
00:10:13,340 --> 00:10:14,412
it's Young Lady Yinng's

235
00:10:14,428 --> 00:10:15,948
dowry list from Duke Ying's residence.

236
00:10:16,275 --> 00:10:17,915
This is only part of it.

237
00:10:18,196 --> 00:10:19,435
I heard that Duke Ying

238
00:10:19,435 --> 00:10:20,555
bought all the best jewelry

239
00:10:20,555 --> 00:10:21,555
in town.

240
00:10:21,555 --> 00:10:22,476
Besides, there are also

241
00:10:22,596 --> 00:10:24,116
houses, farms, and banknotes.

242
00:10:24,275 --> 00:10:26,435
Altogether, it's estimated
to be this amount.

243
00:10:27,476 --> 00:10:29,275
Duke Ying's Residence is fond of Yining,

244
00:10:29,310 --> 00:10:30,444
so this is not surprising.

245
00:10:30,836 --> 00:10:32,836
Young Master, do you know

246
00:10:32,836 --> 00:10:33,836
that generally speaking,

247
00:10:34,035 --> 00:10:35,876
betrothal gifts should be
double the dowry?

248
00:10:35,876 --> 00:10:36,675
Yes.

249
00:10:39,476 --> 00:10:40,395
Hold that end.

250
00:10:41,196 --> 00:10:41,996
Pull back.

251
00:10:47,996 --> 00:10:48,795
Young Master,

252
00:10:48,956 --> 00:10:49,596
are these

253
00:10:49,596 --> 00:10:50,836
all of your assets?

254
00:10:50,876 --> 00:10:52,035
These are what I prepared.

255
00:10:52,316 --> 00:10:53,035
I have not added

256
00:10:53,035 --> 00:10:54,076
in those from Mother yet.

257
00:10:54,275 --> 00:10:55,076
Shao'an,

258
00:10:55,468 --> 00:10:56,860
do you think this is enough?

259
00:10:58,076 --> 00:10:58,876
Yes.

260
00:10:59,356 --> 00:11:00,836
This has to be enough, Young Master.

261
00:11:13,275 --> 00:11:14,275
It took just a year

262
00:11:14,275 --> 00:11:16,035
to recover the capital.

263
00:11:16,155 --> 00:11:17,196
It won't take long

264
00:11:17,196 --> 00:11:18,476
to open another branch.

265
00:11:19,164 --> 00:11:20,396
Congratulations, Young Lady.

266
00:11:22,956 --> 00:11:25,029
About the opening of a new branch,

267
00:11:25,030 --> 00:11:26,460
I'll have to discuss with Sixth Sister

268
00:11:26,508 --> 00:11:27,590
and Sixth Uncle.

269
00:11:27,675 --> 00:11:28,476
I wonder

270
00:11:28,476 --> 00:11:29,996
when will they come back.

271
00:11:30,035 --> 00:11:31,675
I heard they were on the way now.

272
00:11:31,675 --> 00:11:34,435
They will definitely arrive
before your wedding.

273
00:11:35,275 --> 00:11:36,836
Do you really want to marry him?

274
00:11:46,316 --> 00:11:47,555
What are you doing here again?

275
00:11:52,956 --> 00:11:54,395
Whether you admit it or not,

276
00:11:55,116 --> 00:11:55,716
I

277
00:11:56,356 --> 00:11:57,956
am the person you should marry.

278
00:11:58,435 --> 00:11:59,275
However,

279
00:11:59,795 --> 00:12:01,116
you are marrying someone else now.

280
00:12:01,836 --> 00:12:03,275
I have no engagement with you,

281
00:12:03,555 --> 00:12:04,795
so why do you opine that?

282
00:12:04,795 --> 00:12:05,749
You are overjoyed

283
00:12:05,750 --> 00:12:07,180
while getting prepared to marry him,

284
00:12:07,300 --> 00:12:09,540
but you're unaware that
you are being plotted against, right?

285
00:12:09,548 --> 00:12:10,270
What I know is you

286
00:12:10,270 --> 00:12:11,308
ignored my wishes

287
00:12:11,388 --> 00:12:13,210
and requested His Majesty
to grant a marriage.

288
00:12:13,275 --> 00:12:14,996
If it weren't for Third Brother,

289
00:12:14,996 --> 00:12:15,635
perhaps

290
00:12:15,635 --> 00:12:17,275
I have already fallen
into deep sorrow now,

291
00:12:17,675 --> 00:12:18,836
just like before.

292
00:12:18,876 --> 00:12:19,870
Luo Shenyuan knew I was

293
00:12:19,870 --> 00:12:21,548
going to see His Majesty
to grant a marriage,

294
00:12:21,596 --> 00:12:23,030
so he lied to your father

295
00:12:23,076 --> 00:12:24,836
and talked nonsense
in front of His Majesty.

296
00:12:25,196 --> 00:12:26,716
Aren't you worried about Duke Ying

297
00:12:27,076 --> 00:12:28,675
getting charged
for deceiving the emperor?

298
00:12:28,876 --> 00:12:29,996
Did you come here

299
00:12:30,236 --> 00:12:31,476
and threaten me?

300
00:12:32,956 --> 00:12:33,996
Yining, don't worry.

301
00:12:34,435 --> 00:12:36,076
I, Lu Jiaxue,

302
00:12:36,675 --> 00:12:37,716
will never do anything

303
00:12:38,635 --> 00:12:39,515
that harms you.

304
00:12:40,196 --> 00:12:41,836
If there's nothing else,

305
00:12:42,236 --> 00:12:43,716
I should go back to settle accounts.

306
00:12:44,596 --> 00:12:45,435
I know

307
00:12:46,155 --> 00:12:47,795
that you are marrying Luo Shenyuan

308
00:12:49,035 --> 00:12:50,196
because of the engagement.

309
00:12:50,196 --> 00:12:50,836
Am I right?

310
00:12:50,836 --> 00:12:51,836
Either off or on,

311
00:12:51,836 --> 00:12:52,635
I'll still marry him.

312
00:12:52,635 --> 00:12:53,836
Don't marry him!

313
00:12:55,035 --> 00:12:55,836
Yining,

314
00:12:57,996 --> 00:12:58,635
I love you

315
00:12:58,635 --> 00:12:59,996
even before anyone else did.

316
00:13:00,268 --> 00:13:02,012
I have loved you deeply
for the longest time.

317
00:13:02,476 --> 00:13:04,035
Can you give me another chance

318
00:13:04,836 --> 00:13:06,316
so we can start over?

319
00:13:08,435 --> 00:13:09,555
I will treat you well.

320
00:13:09,555 --> 00:13:10,675
Lu Jiaxue, you don't understand

321
00:13:10,675 --> 00:13:11,915
what is it like to love someone.

322
00:13:11,916 --> 00:13:13,070
When we were in the side yard,

323
00:13:13,076 --> 00:13:14,035
it was you who wanted

324
00:13:14,035 --> 00:13:15,196
to be promoted in rank and title

325
00:13:15,196 --> 00:13:16,635
that caused me to be cornered.

326
00:13:16,635 --> 00:13:17,755
Your wish came true,

327
00:13:17,876 --> 00:13:19,275
yet you want to go back to the past.

328
00:13:19,316 --> 00:13:21,116
You are doing this for your own sake.

329
00:13:23,755 --> 00:13:25,035
Do you really like him?

330
00:13:25,035 --> 00:13:25,596
I do.

331
00:13:25,596 --> 00:13:27,155
Are you sure it's romance

332
00:13:27,155 --> 00:13:28,275
instead of siblings?

333
00:13:28,675 --> 00:13:29,635
I am sure

334
00:13:29,675 --> 00:13:30,555
that I'll only love him

335
00:13:30,596 --> 00:13:31,716
for the rest of my life.

336
00:13:39,555 --> 00:13:40,356
Fine.

337
00:13:42,395 --> 00:13:43,196
Fantastic.

338
00:13:46,795 --> 00:13:48,435
But I don't care who you love

339
00:13:48,836 --> 00:13:49,996
and who you want to marry.

340
00:13:51,035 --> 00:13:52,476
You will always be my Mei.

341
00:13:56,076 --> 00:13:57,236
I won't give up.

342
00:13:57,755 --> 00:13:58,956
Anyone against me

343
00:13:58,956 --> 00:14:00,395
will not end well.

344
00:14:16,476 --> 00:14:17,275
Your Lordship,

345
00:14:17,292 --> 00:14:18,510
His Majesty is going to assign

346
00:14:18,515 --> 00:14:20,755
you to garrison duty
on the border for three years.

347
00:14:24,555 --> 00:14:25,515
I expected that.

348
00:14:27,035 --> 00:14:27,836
When I

349
00:14:27,836 --> 00:14:30,035
reported Wang Yuan
to His Majesty previously,

350
00:14:30,596 --> 00:14:32,196
he acted like he trusted me

351
00:14:32,356 --> 00:14:33,155
but in fact,

352
00:14:34,035 --> 00:14:35,515
he has long been suspicious of me.

353
00:14:40,435 --> 00:14:41,236
Uncle.

354
00:14:41,675 --> 00:14:43,836
I heard that you were heading
to the border

355
00:14:44,236 --> 00:14:45,515
so I came to see you off.

356
00:14:47,324 --> 00:14:48,470
I have now lost the authority

357
00:14:48,476 --> 00:14:50,196
to allocate positions
within Imperial Guards

358
00:14:50,590 --> 00:14:52,620
and also transferred
to the border by His Majesty.

359
00:14:52,668 --> 00:14:54,270
Everyone knows that I, Lu Jiaxue,

360
00:14:55,395 --> 00:14:56,275
lost my power

361
00:14:56,356 --> 00:14:57,836
and are avoiding me at all costs.

362
00:14:58,035 --> 00:14:59,996
Why do you come here to see me off?

363
00:15:00,435 --> 00:15:02,275
My current identity and status

364
00:15:03,035 --> 00:15:04,275
are all given by you.

365
00:15:05,755 --> 00:15:07,035
I will never forget it.

366
00:15:13,155 --> 00:15:15,395
I appreciate your loyalty.

367
00:15:21,755 --> 00:15:22,795
From today onwards,

368
00:15:23,356 --> 00:15:24,830
don't come to this residence again.

369
00:15:24,996 --> 00:15:25,795
From now on,

370
00:15:26,076 --> 00:15:27,876
do not have any dealings with me

371
00:15:27,990 --> 00:15:29,164
to avoid getting involved.

372
00:15:35,196 --> 00:15:37,596
Don't let our family
worry about you anymore.

373
00:15:38,035 --> 00:15:38,836
Understood.

374
00:15:39,675 --> 00:15:40,476
Uncle,

375
00:15:40,836 --> 00:15:41,836
what is your current plan?

376
00:15:41,836 --> 00:15:43,035
You don't need to know

377
00:15:43,155 --> 00:15:44,395
my plans.

378
00:15:44,476 --> 00:15:45,275
Hurry back now.

379
00:15:49,435 --> 00:15:50,476
I shall take my leave.

380
00:15:57,596 --> 00:15:58,395
Your Lordship,

381
00:15:58,476 --> 00:15:59,316
His Majesty requested

382
00:15:59,316 --> 00:16:00,476
that we depart within three days

383
00:16:01,035 --> 00:16:01,836
in time...

384
00:16:02,675 --> 00:16:03,515
Three days...

385
00:16:08,596 --> 00:16:09,476
is enough.

386
00:16:36,755 --> 00:16:38,076
Chancellor Wang, how are you?

387
00:16:41,275 --> 00:16:43,116
Greetings, Marquis Lu.

388
00:16:43,795 --> 00:16:45,996
Congratulations on your promotion

389
00:16:46,675 --> 00:16:47,876
although

390
00:16:48,836 --> 00:16:50,716
the promotion is actually a demotion.

391
00:16:51,596 --> 00:16:53,316
It seems that His Majesty has
lost his trust

392
00:16:53,316 --> 00:16:55,035
in you.

393
00:16:55,068 --> 00:16:57,068
Chancellor Wang, you are quite updated
on recent news

394
00:16:57,076 --> 00:16:58,395
despite being in prison.

395
00:17:03,076 --> 00:17:06,116
Although I am imprisoned,

396
00:17:07,556 --> 00:17:09,356
that does not mean

397
00:17:09,675 --> 00:17:11,516
I am deaf or blind.

398
00:17:14,356 --> 00:17:15,556
I am here today

399
00:17:16,076 --> 00:17:17,635
to make an offer.

400
00:17:24,036 --> 00:17:25,235
Too late.

401
00:17:27,155 --> 00:17:29,955
Your reluctance to take action then

402
00:17:30,435 --> 00:17:32,796
caused me to be in a dead spot now.

403
00:17:33,435 --> 00:17:35,475
What kind of deal are we talking about?

404
00:17:36,195 --> 00:17:38,836
When you betrayed the Song family,

405
00:17:39,675 --> 00:17:41,596
it was you who unwaveringly clung to me

406
00:17:41,596 --> 00:17:43,116
and let me help you rise to power.

407
00:17:43,516 --> 00:17:45,715
Yet, you attacked me in return

408
00:17:46,276 --> 00:17:48,915
and you're still dreaming
of getting away unscathed?

409
00:17:49,036 --> 00:17:50,715
It was you who forced me to do it.

410
00:17:50,790 --> 00:17:51,564
I had no choice but

411
00:17:51,564 --> 00:17:52,910
to confess everything to His Majesty

412
00:17:52,915 --> 00:17:54,435
to get a chance to survive.

413
00:17:54,995 --> 00:17:55,796
You and I

414
00:17:56,796 --> 00:17:57,715
are even now.

415
00:18:03,995 --> 00:18:05,276
Lu Jiaxue,

416
00:18:06,995 --> 00:18:08,356
just wait.

417
00:18:10,475 --> 00:18:12,475
The day I die

418
00:18:14,116 --> 00:18:16,076
will be when the agreement

419
00:18:16,876 --> 00:18:19,675
becomes known to the world.

420
00:18:32,796 --> 00:18:34,276
Even ants cling to life.

421
00:18:34,836 --> 00:18:36,155
Until the very last moment,

422
00:18:37,076 --> 00:18:38,915
Chancellor Wang, why don't you
be patient

423
00:18:39,435 --> 00:18:40,955
and listen to my offer?

424
00:19:19,516 --> 00:19:20,316
Master,

425
00:19:22,715 --> 00:19:24,076
Wang Yuan was convicted

426
00:19:25,995 --> 00:19:26,796
and his accomplices

427
00:19:26,796 --> 00:19:28,076
had confessed.

428
00:19:29,596 --> 00:19:31,036
There is solid evidence

429
00:19:32,995 --> 00:19:34,356
that it was them back then

430
00:19:35,820 --> 00:19:37,550
(Grave of Master Jiuheng)
who pushed the blame on you.

431
00:19:37,915 --> 00:19:38,995
His Majesty

432
00:19:39,475 --> 00:19:41,356
has cleared your grievances

433
00:19:42,116 --> 00:19:42,915
and

434
00:19:44,316 --> 00:19:45,395
we can finally

435
00:19:45,395 --> 00:19:47,675
come to visit you openly now.

436
00:19:53,195 --> 00:19:55,516
Senior Xia and Senior Shen are here.

437
00:19:57,036 --> 00:19:58,435
We are all well.

438
00:19:59,915 --> 00:20:01,316
You can rest assured.

439
00:20:08,952 --> 00:20:11,062
(Grave of Senior Daoyan)

440
00:20:12,675 --> 00:20:14,036
Senior Daoyan is the exception.

441
00:20:24,915 --> 00:20:25,675
I blame myself,

442
00:20:29,915 --> 00:20:31,556
for not being able to protect him.

443
00:20:49,475 --> 00:20:50,276
Senior Daoyan,

444
00:20:52,596 --> 00:20:53,955
you've always loved drinking.

445
00:20:55,276 --> 00:20:56,076
I brought you

446
00:20:56,076 --> 00:20:57,435
a big portion today.

447
00:20:59,516 --> 00:21:00,316
Let's

448
00:21:02,116 --> 00:21:03,756
be friends again in our next life,

449
00:21:05,316 --> 00:21:07,435
but I want to be the elder one next time

450
00:21:08,990 --> 00:21:10,716
so you have to listen to me
in everything.

451
00:21:12,435 --> 00:21:13,235
Shenyuan,

452
00:21:15,516 --> 00:21:16,915
you have tried your best.

453
00:21:19,116 --> 00:21:20,076
Right, Shenyuan.

454
00:21:21,796 --> 00:21:22,915
Master often quoted,

455
00:21:24,435 --> 00:21:27,316
"What joy is there in life,
and what suffering in death?

456
00:21:28,516 --> 00:21:31,516
Everything in the world
ultimately returns to the earth."

457
00:21:32,876 --> 00:21:34,475
We have to live well

458
00:21:34,475 --> 00:21:35,675
to live distinguished lives

459
00:21:37,036 --> 00:21:39,516
to live up to
the deceased's expectations.

460
00:21:40,100 --> 00:21:41,966
(Grave of Senior Daoyan)

461
00:21:43,180 --> 00:21:44,972
May the spirits of
the illustrious ones above

462
00:21:45,180 --> 00:21:46,908
be honored in seasonal sacrifices,

463
00:21:47,710 --> 00:21:49,436
and may they continue to
enjoy the offerings.

464
00:22:08,216 --> 00:22:10,060
(Duke Ying's Residence)

465
00:22:11,715 --> 00:22:12,596
You two, watch out.

466
00:22:12,596 --> 00:22:13,316
Grandma,

467
00:22:13,675 --> 00:22:15,715
it's Yining's big day today.

468
00:22:16,036 --> 00:22:17,235
The residence

469
00:22:17,235 --> 00:22:18,876
is chaotic like war.

470
00:22:19,076 --> 00:22:20,076
That's because

471
00:22:20,796 --> 00:22:21,796
we can't afford

472
00:22:21,796 --> 00:22:23,189
any single flaw.

473
00:22:23,190 --> 00:22:25,260
The wedding of the daughter
of Duke Ying's Residence

474
00:22:25,324 --> 00:22:27,310
has to be glorious.

475
00:22:32,076 --> 00:22:32,876
Minglan,

476
00:22:34,516 --> 00:22:36,995
our daughter is getting married.

477
00:22:37,516 --> 00:22:38,516
Don't worry,

478
00:22:39,356 --> 00:22:40,675
I have looked

479
00:22:41,036 --> 00:22:42,516
into the man who will marry her.

480
00:22:42,955 --> 00:22:44,435
He is deeply affectionate to her

481
00:22:44,435 --> 00:22:45,796
and he is worthy of entrustment.

482
00:22:46,435 --> 00:22:47,475
Besides,

483
00:22:48,076 --> 00:22:50,556
if something happens someday,

484
00:22:50,915 --> 00:22:51,796
I will still be around

485
00:22:53,915 --> 00:22:55,675
and I will definitely support her.

486
00:22:55,675 --> 00:22:56,475
I will not let her

487
00:22:56,475 --> 00:22:57,675
suffer any grievances.

488
00:22:58,715 --> 00:22:59,836
However,

489
00:23:00,195 --> 00:23:02,995
I didn't keep my promise back then.

490
00:23:03,316 --> 00:23:04,675
I didn't give you

491
00:23:04,675 --> 00:23:05,995
a glorious wedding,

492
00:23:08,316 --> 00:23:09,596
so will you blame me?

493
00:23:10,756 --> 00:23:11,596
Father,

494
00:23:12,395 --> 00:23:14,556
Mother won't blame you.

495
00:23:19,395 --> 00:23:21,316
This is something I found
in her relics.

496
00:23:21,955 --> 00:23:24,356
She left it for you.

497
00:23:44,516 --> 00:23:47,915
Since our parting, how many times
have I longed for our reunion,

498
00:23:49,195 --> 00:23:52,915
sharing dreams and souls with you.

499
00:23:57,020 --> 00:23:58,070
Your mother had always

500
00:23:58,076 --> 00:23:59,116
kept me in her heart.

501
00:24:00,995 --> 00:24:02,395
Please don't blame yourself.

502
00:24:03,076 --> 00:24:04,556
If she is still around and sees

503
00:24:04,715 --> 00:24:06,516
you blaming yourself
like this all the time,

504
00:24:06,955 --> 00:24:08,356
she will be upset, too.

505
00:24:12,116 --> 00:24:14,435
Yining, I regret it.

506
00:24:15,155 --> 00:24:17,796
I shouldn't have agreed

507
00:24:17,796 --> 00:24:19,635
to let him marry you so quickly.

508
00:24:19,756 --> 00:24:20,556
How about

509
00:24:21,356 --> 00:24:22,995
we delay

510
00:24:24,076 --> 00:24:25,276
the wedding to a later time?

511
00:24:26,276 --> 00:24:27,076
Father,

512
00:24:27,675 --> 00:24:29,076
even if I get married,

513
00:24:29,195 --> 00:24:30,395
I am also Yining,

514
00:24:30,556 --> 00:24:32,076
your daughter.

515

Young Master!

685
00:39:53,084 --> 00:39:54,924
Imperial Court of Judicial
has an urgent report!

686
00:39:54,940 --> 00:39:55,644
Let's talk later.

687
00:39:55,692 --> 00:39:56,700
Wang Yuan and his comrades

688
00:39:56,700 --> 00:39:57,884
like Gao Da and others are gone!

689
00:39:58,356 --> 00:40:00,636
Third Brother, if this is an emergency,

690
00:40:00,796 --> 00:40:01,876
you should go.

691
00:40:04,876 --> 00:40:05,676
I'm sorry.

692
00:40:06,876 --> 00:40:08,196
I will be back before midnight.

693
00:40:09,276 --> 00:40:10,876
There are so many fireworks outside.

694
00:40:11,316 --> 00:40:12,196
I'll wait for you.

695
00:40:12,270 --> 00:40:13,500
Let's put the fireworks together.

696
00:40:15,876 --> 00:40:16,356
Let's go.

697
00:40:27,475 --> 00:40:28,475
Notify the yamen

698
00:40:28,524 --> 00:40:29,870
to block the city gate immediately.

699
00:40:29,870 --> 00:40:30,940
We have a citywide manhunt.

700
00:40:30,956 --> 00:40:31,390
Yes, Sir.

701
00:40:32,075 --> 00:40:32,796
Search for them!

702
00:40:32,995 --> 00:40:34,555
Do not let the criminals escape.

703
00:40:34,555 --> 00:40:35,236
Yes, Sir.

704
00:40:41,740 --> 00:40:42,860
Have you seen this person?

705
00:40:43,316 --> 00:40:43,915
No.

706
00:40:44,196 --> 00:40:45,589
Here, come and take a look.

707
00:40:45,590 --> 00:40:46,764
Have you ever seen this person?

708
00:40:46,780 --> 00:40:47,430
No.

709
00:40:48,220 --> 00:40:48,684
Hey, you,

710
00:40:48,710 --> 00:40:49,452
have you seen him?

711
00:40:49,790 --> 00:40:50,300
Take a look.

712
00:40:50,350 --> 00:40:51,292
Have you ever seen him?

713
00:40:51,510 --> 00:40:52,636
Have you ever seen this person?

714
00:40:53,716 --> 00:40:54,475
No.

715
00:40:56,316 --> 00:40:57,109
What is the progress?

716
00:40:57,110 --> 00:40:57,948
Vice Minister Luo,

717
00:40:58,012 --> 00:40:59,390
we have searched the street

718
00:40:59,395 --> 00:41:00,915
but no trace of Wang was found.

719
00:41:01,035 --> 00:41:01,836
Continue searching.

720
00:41:01,876 --> 00:41:02,995
Yes. Go.

721
00:41:04,676 --> 00:41:05,515
Search over there.

722
00:41:05,515 --> 00:41:06,115
Yes.

723
00:41:13,955 --> 00:41:15,676
The groom is out for work matters.

724
00:41:16,115 --> 00:41:17,676
Is the bride upset about this?

725
00:41:17,995 --> 00:41:20,435
We are a couple, of course
we understand each other.

726
00:41:20,515 --> 00:41:21,435
On the contrary,

727
00:41:21,915 --> 00:41:23,115
you will take up your post soon,

728
00:41:23,115 --> 00:41:24,356
yet you are so diligent.

729
00:41:24,515 --> 00:41:25,915
As long as I am still here,

730
00:41:26,204 --> 00:41:27,710
the responsibilities of Imperial Guards

731
00:41:27,716 --> 00:41:28,876
cannot be taken lightly.

732
00:41:28,950 --> 00:41:31,110
The criminals escaped
from Imperial Court of Judicial

733
00:41:31,116 --> 00:41:32,630
so Imperial Guard came to assist.

734
00:41:32,876 --> 00:41:34,515
That is fast.

735
00:41:34,756 --> 00:41:36,035
Such foresight suggests that you

736
00:41:36,475 --> 00:41:37,509
must have known in advance

737
00:41:37,510 --> 00:41:39,468
that Wang Yuan was planning
to escape from prison.

738
00:41:39,515 --> 00:41:40,676
Imperial Guards

739
00:41:40,716 --> 00:41:42,475
have always been well-informed.

740
00:41:43,955 --> 00:41:44,716
That's sharp.

741
00:41:44,910 --> 00:41:45,932
What's the issue here?

742
00:41:45,955 --> 00:41:46,756
Aren't you

743
00:41:46,756 --> 00:41:48,115
worried about yourself at all?

744
00:41:48,836 --> 00:41:50,515
The criminals escaped from your place.

745
00:41:50,716 --> 00:41:52,316
The constituting of dereliction of duty

746
00:41:53,035 --> 00:41:54,316
is unavoidable.

747
00:41:55,075 --> 00:41:56,316
Thank you for the reminder.

748
00:42:16,796 --> 00:42:17,636
Any updates?

749
00:42:17,910 --> 00:42:18,700
Have you found them?

750
00:42:18,756 --> 00:42:19,676
No.

751
00:42:19,884 --> 00:42:20,332
Fine.

752
00:42:20,332 --> 00:42:21,340
Look for them separately.

753
00:42:21,350 --> 00:42:21,708
Sure.

754
00:42:24,035 --> 00:42:25,395
Give it to me.

755
00:42:25,395 --> 00:42:26,515
What's the hurry?

756
00:42:26,515 --> 00:42:27,850
Let's talk after we leave the city.

757
00:42:29,876 --> 00:42:30,475
No.

758
00:42:31,676 --> 00:42:32,995
Tomorrow noon,

759
00:42:33,035 --> 00:42:35,475
my old servant

760
00:42:35,515 --> 00:42:37,435
will take it to my old residence.

761
00:42:37,435 --> 00:42:40,395
You can go retrieve it then.

762
00:42:41,676 --> 00:42:43,515
Look, don't worry.

763
00:42:43,716 --> 00:42:44,915
I'm already out of prison.

764
00:42:44,915 --> 00:42:45,395
That thing

765
00:42:45,395 --> 00:42:46,876
is no longer of use to me.

766
00:42:50,676 --> 00:42:52,115
Chancellor Wang, I'll lure them away.

767
00:42:52,115 --> 00:42:53,316
Sure, go.

768
00:42:55,995 --> 00:42:57,276
He's there! Go!

769
00:42:57,915 --> 00:42:58,716
