Lejun is awake.
3
00:00:29,920 --> 00:00:31,550
Lejun told me a story,
4
00:00:32,470 --> 00:00:34,110
but it's too bizarre.
5
00:00:35,110 --> 00:00:36,310
It's hard to believe.
6
00:00:36,880 --> 00:00:38,740
I hope you could clarify it for me.
7
00:00:41,000 --> 00:00:41,920
Lejun said
8
00:00:43,110 --> 00:00:44,670
I'm not Prince Qi's son
9
00:00:46,880 --> 00:00:48,640
but your son.
10
00:00:53,520 --> 00:00:54,280
Is it true?

[Key to the Phoenix Heart]

00:02:34,900 --> 00:02:37,670
[Episode 17]
13
00:02:51,750 --> 00:02:52,470
Take a rest.
14
00:02:53,120 --> 00:02:55,030
Have some ginseng soup
to strengthen your body.
15
00:02:55,030 --> 00:02:56,870
It'll be another tough few days.
16
00:02:57,960 --> 00:02:58,760
Fortunately,
17
00:02:59,030 --> 00:03:01,230
the ointment Ruisheng made works well.
18
00:03:01,630 --> 00:03:03,430
The swelling has gone down a lot.
19
00:03:04,260 --> 00:03:06,520
How could the Grand Tutor bear to do this?
20
00:03:14,710 --> 00:03:15,400
And this.
21
00:03:16,310 --> 00:03:18,240
Anmin asked me to bring this to you.
22
00:03:18,470 --> 00:03:20,360
He said he has nothing to offer
23
00:03:21,240 --> 00:03:22,360
but an abundance of soft cushions
24
00:03:22,360 --> 00:03:23,960
that can make sitting and kneeling
25
00:03:23,960 --> 00:03:25,020
more comfortable.
26
00:03:25,079 --> 00:03:26,750
Pad your knees with this.
27
00:03:27,079 --> 00:03:28,210
It'll ease the pain.
28
00:03:30,520 --> 00:03:31,280
Don't worry.
29
00:03:31,630 --> 00:03:34,490
Prince Jing'an's Mansion
will always be your home.
30
00:03:34,910 --> 00:03:36,079
You can stay here
31
00:03:36,630 --> 00:03:37,690
as long as you want.
32
00:03:51,870 --> 00:03:52,930
Thank you, Yuanji.
33
00:03:54,560 --> 00:03:55,360
And Anmin too.
34
00:04:01,680 --> 00:04:03,560
My Lady, it's cold at night.
35
00:04:03,750 --> 00:04:04,810
Don't catch a cold.
36
00:04:05,120 --> 00:04:06,560
Isn't this the fox fur cloak
His Highness hunted
37
00:04:06,560 --> 00:04:08,030
and made himself a few years ago?
38
00:04:08,030 --> 00:04:09,760
His Highness asked me to get it.
39
00:04:10,680 --> 00:04:12,410
Why didn't he bring it himself?
40
00:04:17,040 --> 00:04:18,300
And this ointment too.
41
00:04:18,950 --> 00:04:20,720
He requested Ruisheng to
42
00:04:20,720 --> 00:04:21,579
make it for you,
43
00:04:22,190 --> 00:04:23,920
but he just won't come himself.
44
00:04:24,160 --> 00:04:24,950
Maybe
45
00:04:26,070 --> 00:04:27,310
he's afraid to see me.
46
00:04:28,680 --> 00:04:29,270
What?
47
00:04:33,240 --> 00:04:33,800
Nothing.
48
00:04:34,950 --> 00:04:35,720
Yuanji,
49
00:04:36,360 --> 00:04:37,960
I can keep watch here myself.
50
00:04:38,120 --> 00:04:39,450
Please go back and rest.
51
00:04:49,480 --> 00:04:50,740
Take care of yourself.
52
00:05:12,870 --> 00:05:17,070
When the Phoenix Heart Tokens appear,
peace shall be restored in the world.
53
00:05:17,870 --> 00:05:19,160
How are the Phoenix Heart Tokens
54
00:05:19,160 --> 00:05:20,490
linked to the minerals?
55
00:05:29,750 --> 00:05:30,610
Your Highness,
56
00:05:30,750 --> 00:05:32,870
I bought the pear blossom candy
from Chengyi Hall.
57
00:05:32,870 --> 00:05:34,130
Deliver it to Lady Xie.
58
00:05:34,630 --> 00:05:35,920
I heard she's been keeping vigil
for 3 days,
59
00:05:35,920 --> 00:05:36,950
eaten or drunk nothing
60
00:05:36,950 --> 00:05:38,409
except some ginseng soup.
61
00:05:38,430 --> 00:05:39,960
Aren't you going to see her?
62
00:05:40,120 --> 00:05:41,070
Consort Yuanji and Madam Ruisheng
63
00:05:41,070 --> 00:05:42,000
visit her often.
64
00:05:42,270 --> 00:05:43,190
You're at least Lady Xie's
65
00:05:43,190 --> 00:05:44,120
husband in name,
66
00:05:44,270 --> 00:05:45,530
and haven't divorced.
67
00:05:45,680 --> 00:05:46,920
It's understandable for you to
68
00:05:46,920 --> 00:05:48,310
observe mourning for her.
69
00:05:48,310 --> 00:05:50,310
I doubt she wants to see me right now.
70
00:05:51,430 --> 00:05:52,290
Then this time,
71
00:05:53,000 --> 00:05:55,130
shall I ask the Princess to deliver it?
72
00:05:57,310 --> 00:05:58,000
Hang on.
73
00:06:07,510 --> 00:06:08,370
Your Highness.
74
00:06:13,270 --> 00:06:14,130
Is she alright?
75
00:06:14,310 --> 00:06:15,770
My Lady has fallen asleep.
76
00:06:18,480 --> 00:06:20,080
Please keep your voice down.
77
00:06:20,310 --> 00:06:21,910
My Lady finally fell asleep.
78
00:06:29,800 --> 00:06:31,530
She'd been staying up for days.
79
00:06:31,750 --> 00:06:33,560
Consort Yuanji and Madam Ruisheng were
80
00:06:33,560 --> 00:06:35,159
worried that My Lady
couldn't endure the strain
81
00:06:35,159 --> 00:06:36,620
so soon after her illness.
82
00:06:36,630 --> 00:06:39,430
Consort Yuanji just
brought a bowl of calming soup
83
00:06:39,750 --> 00:06:42,360
and tricked My Lady into drinking it
as ginseng soup.
84
00:06:42,360 --> 00:06:44,240
Now she's finally asleep.
85
00:06:46,750 --> 00:06:48,010
How can she sleep here?
86
00:06:49,800 --> 00:06:51,190
I'll carry her back to rest.
87
00:06:51,190 --> 00:06:52,630
Back... Back where?
88
00:06:56,040 --> 00:06:56,680
My Lady...
89
00:07:11,600 --> 00:07:14,120
It seems the outcome of our bet
is decided.
90
00:07:15,480 --> 00:07:16,410
I'm going to win.
91
00:07:16,430 --> 00:07:17,430
That's not right.
92
00:07:18,190 --> 00:07:21,120
I remember betting that
they'd end up together.
93
00:07:21,260 --> 00:07:23,190
You always win bets with your husband
94
00:07:23,190 --> 00:07:25,160
because you never own up
when you lose, right?
95
00:07:25,160 --> 00:07:26,090
That's not true!
96
00:07:28,000 --> 00:07:30,240
Fine, I'll let you have your way.
97
00:07:30,800 --> 00:07:32,470
How about letting Ziqi study
98
00:07:32,680 --> 00:07:34,430
both literature or medicine?
99
00:07:35,560 --> 00:07:36,690
I think that's good.
100
00:07:36,750 --> 00:07:37,350
By the way,
101
00:07:37,750 --> 00:07:39,310
didn't you say His Highness
got injured
102
00:07:39,310 --> 00:07:40,680

103
00:07:40,680 --> 00:07:41,430

104
00:07:42,190 --> 00:07:43,680
Can he carry someone now?
105
00:07:43,950 --> 00:07:44,680
Don't worry.
106
00:07:45,190 --> 00:07:46,250
He won't feel pain.
107
00:07:46,390 --> 00:07:47,000
True.
108
00:07:47,950 --> 00:07:50,920

109
00:07:50,920 --> 00:07:51,950
or Nanxing?
110
00:07:52,750 --> 00:07:53,750

should naturally reveal himself.

used to be a groom
for Empress Wenxi's maternal family.
349
00:21:42,160 --> 00:21:44,880
He entered the Imperial Guard
because of Empress Wenxi's recommendation,
350
00:21:44,880 --> 00:21:46,030
and later led the Imperial Guard
351

00:21:51,350 --> 00:21:53,010
he was titled Prince Jing'an.
355
00:21:54,200 --> 00:21:55,070
That is true.
356
00:21:55,750 --> 00:21:56,550
But why didn't
357
00:21:56,550 --> 00:21:58,680
my mother ever mention the Xiao family
358
00:21:59,110 --> 00:22:00,880
or Old General Xiao to me?
359
00:22:05,920 --> 00:22:07,240
They were of different social classes.
360
00:22:07,240 --> 00:22:10,070
Not to mention the Prince
was just a groom back then.
361
00:22:10,070 --> 00:22:11,270
It's no surprise that
362
00:22:11,350 --> 00:22:13,200
the Princess didn't remember him.
363
00:22:13,200 --> 00:22:15,750
But Empress Wenxi could
entrust her last 50,000 Imperial Guards
364
00:22:15,750 --> 00:22:17,400

so he must've been

00:22:32,030 --> 00:22:34,160
the Crown Prince failed to appear
for a long time.
371
00:22:34,160 --> 00:22:35,920
So, the court was
divided into two factions.
372
00:22:35,920 --> 00:22:38,240
One faction insisted on
waiting for the Crown Prince to return
373
00:22:38,240 --> 00:22:39,830
and supporting the orthodox heir,
374
00:22:39,830 --> 00:22:40,960
such as your mother.
375
00:22:41,750 --> 00:22:43,790
The other faction was the various nobles,
376
00:22:43,790 --> 00:22:45,960
who advocated choosing
a prince of similar age
377
00:22:45,960 --> 00:22:47,550
from the royal clans
378
00:22:47,550 --> 00:22:49,010
and supporting him first.
379
00:22:49,030 --> 00:22:50,960
The two factions were deadlocked.
380
00:22:51,030 --> 00:22:52,590
Only Prince Jing'an,
who commanded the Imperial Guard,
381
00:22:52,590 --> 00:22:53,920
had the right to decide.
382
00:22:54,440 --> 00:22:55,970
The Prince chose the nobles
383
00:22:56,000 --> 00:22:57,530
and supported Emperor Rui,
384
00:22:57,590 --> 00:23:00,110
who is His Majesty's father.
385
00:23:01,640 --> 00:23:02,200
Yes.
386
00:23:03,000 --> 00:23:03,830
Since then,
387
00:23:04,030 --> 00:23:06,960
the Princess and the Xiao family
have had no contact.
388
00:23:07,310 --> 00:23:10,110
Then didn't the Prince
have a Phoenix Heart Token?
389
00:23:15,640 --> 00:23:16,920
I was just asking.
390
00:23:17,750 --> 00:23:18,440
Well...
391
00:23:19,310 --> 00:23:20,970
My mother's token is missing.
392
00:23:21,480 --> 00:23:23,510
Some say Xiao Wuyi killed my mother
393
00:23:25,750 --> 00:23:28,310
for her Phoenix Heart Token.
394
00:23:28,540 --> 00:23:29,210
That's why...
395
00:23:29,210 --> 00:23:29,940
Impossible.
396
00:23:30,920 --> 00:23:32,350
I can guarantee you that.
397
00:23:32,720 --> 00:23:34,980
Xiao Wuyi would never kill the Princess.
398
00:23:37,640 --> 00:23:38,500
He couldn't...
399
00:23:46,960 --> 00:23:48,020
Please believe me.
400
00:23:48,550 --> 00:23:50,550
Wuyi would never kill the Princess.
401
00:23:51,640 --> 00:23:52,770
You must trust Wuyi.
402
00:23:52,880 --> 00:23:54,540
Don't let others mislead you.
403
00:23:56,550 --> 00:23:57,510
I understand.
404
00:23:59,510 --> 00:24:01,590
If you say so, I believe you.
405
00:24:03,110 --> 00:24:04,110
I trust Xiao Wuyi.
406
00:24:12,350 --> 00:24:13,000
Lady Xie,
407
00:24:13,480 --> 00:24:14,280
please tell me
408
00:24:15,070 --> 00:24:16,670
why you're bringing me here.
409
00:24:17,200 --> 00:24:18,160
Didn't I help you get
410
00:24:18,160 --> 00:24:20,000
the chance to compete in archery?
411
00:24:20,000 --> 00:24:21,310
You said you owed me a favor
412
00:24:21,310 --> 00:24:22,910
and would do one thing for me.
413
00:24:24,400 --> 00:24:25,240
I did say that.
414
00:24:25,720 --> 00:24:26,650
Then ask no more.
415
00:24:27,440 --> 00:24:28,960
I promise this matter
416
00:24:29,310 --> 00:24:31,040
doesn't violate the laws of Ye.
417
00:24:33,880 --> 00:24:35,880
Sir, here he is.
418
00:24:36,590 --> 00:24:38,050
Please hold out your hand.
419
00:24:59,550 --> 00:25:00,110
No.
420
00:25:02,890 --> 00:25:03,750
Thank you, sir.
421
00:25:04,110 --> 00:25:06,070
What exactly is going on?
422
00:25:06,510 --> 00:25:07,350
"No" what?
423
00:25:10,830 --> 00:25:11,480
Wuyi?
424
00:25:19,030 --> 00:25:19,750
You drew me.
425
00:25:20,720 --> 00:25:22,980
When was this? At the martial arts arena?
426
00:25:24,350 --> 00:25:25,480
The bone reader said
427
00:25:25,640 --> 00:25:28,170
you and Xiao Yao
aren't biological brothers.
428
00:25:28,270 --> 00:25:29,110
So sure, huh?
429
00:25:29,680 --> 00:25:30,810
What if he was wrong?
430
00:25:31,110 --> 00:25:32,590
The fact that you're sitting here
431
00:25:32,590 --> 00:25:33,880
proves that I'm right.
432
00:25:36,400 --> 00:25:37,070
When did you
433
00:25:37,070 --> 00:25:38,670
start doubting my identity?
434
00:25:39,480 --> 00:25:40,480
At Lingfeng Fort.
435
00:25:40,790 --> 00:25:41,450
That early?
436
00:25:42,960 --> 00:25:43,720
At first,
437
00:25:44,310 --> 00:25:46,160
I didn't care who Crown Prince Wenxi was.
438
00:25:46,160 --> 00:25:47,160
I only cared about
439
00:25:47,200 --> 00:25:48,530
who murdered my mother.
440
00:25:49,070 --> 00:25:50,480
I know my mother told you
441
00:25:51,350 --> 00:25:53,410
she'd trade the token for my freedom.
442
00:25:54,110 --> 00:25:55,570
The night before she died,
443
00:25:56,200 --> 00:25:57,510
I saw you two arguing.
444
00:25:58,440 --> 00:25:59,170
She wouldn't
445
00:25:59,510 --> 00:26:00,240
give this token
446
00:26:00,240 --> 00:26:02,500
to anyone other than Crown Prince Wenxi.
447
00:26:03,650 --> 00:26:04,980
Since she promised you,
448
00:26:05,350 --> 00:26:07,150
how could she go back on her word?
449
00:26:07,310 --> 00:26:08,710
That's why you suspected
450
00:26:09,790 --> 00:26:12,190
that I was the one
who attacked Her Highness
451
00:26:12,400 --> 00:26:13,350
to get the token?
452
00:26:14,350 --> 00:26:15,080
Besides you,
453
00:26:16,030 --> 00:26:17,960
Lejun was also a probable suspect.
454
00:26:18,070 --> 00:26:18,640
That day,
455
00:26:19,310 --> 00:26:21,550
I heard Her Highness arguing with someone.
456
00:26:21,550 --> 00:26:23,960
She said she knew the whereabouts
of Crown Prince Wenxi.
457
00:26:23,960 --> 00:26:25,620
She was going to give the token
458
00:26:26,110 --> 00:26:27,510
to Crown Prince Wenxi.
459
00:26:28,280 --> 00:26:29,610
In the carriage,
460
00:26:30,590 --> 00:26:32,880
I did give her a chance.
461
00:26:33,230 --> 00:26:34,830
But she knew your background
462
00:26:35,400 --> 00:26:38,860
and insisted on helping
Crown Prince Wenxi ascend the throne.
463
00:26:39,200 --> 00:26:40,240
If she heard my mother's desire
464
00:26:40,240 --> 00:26:42,110
to support Crown Prince Wenxi's ascension,
465
00:26:42,110 --> 00:26:44,170
it'd pose a threat to Mao's position.
466
00:26:44,640 --> 00:26:46,900
So she also had a reason
to take the token.
467
00:26:47,480 --> 00:26:48,810
Once Crown Prince Wenxi
468
00:26:49,030 --> 00:26:51,030
returns to Jiankang with the token,
469
00:26:51,590 --> 00:26:53,200
what will you do, Brother?
470
00:26:53,880 --> 00:26:55,210
For the Eastern Palace,
471
00:26:55,440 --> 00:26:57,070
you even gave up Yaoyao.
472
00:26:57,240 --> 00:26:59,440
I had to get rid of the ticking time bomb!
473
00:27:03,960 --> 00:27:05,790
Without Her Highness's token,
474
00:27:06,510 --> 00:27:08,400
even if Crown Prince Wenxi comes,
475
00:27:10,200 --> 00:27:12,200
the prophecy is considered broken.
476
00:27:13,590 --> 00:27:14,990
Who was she arguing with?
477
00:27:16,230 --> 00:27:18,640
I didn't see clearly, but I think...
478
00:27:19,920 --> 00:27:21,050
it must be Xiao Wuyi.
479
00:27:21,590 --> 00:27:23,450
Xiao Wuyi really wants the token.
480
00:27:23,880 --> 00:27:26,880
He's been holding on to Cui Jun's token.
481
00:27:27,510 --> 00:27:28,110
Brother.
482
00:27:29,160 --> 00:27:30,000
In my opinion,
483
00:27:30,550 --> 00:27:31,750
to Xiao Wuyi,
484
00:27:32,550 --> 00:27:35,000
you're just a pawn
kept in the imperial government
485
00:27:35,000 --> 00:27:36,800
to facilitate the Beifu Reform.
486
00:27:37,640 --> 00:27:39,830
If he dares to fall in love with Yaoyao,
487
00:27:40,550 --> 00:27:41,610
how much affection
488
00:27:42,110 --> 00:27:43,720
does he have left for you?
489
00:27:50,680 --> 00:27:51,680
You must never...
490
00:27:53,830 --> 00:27:55,200
trust Xiao Wuyi again.
491
00:27:58,590 --> 00:28:00,450
Only you have the grain that could
492
00:28:00,510 --> 00:28:01,510
drive a horse mad.
493
00:28:02,030 --> 00:28:02,920
So at first,
494
00:28:04,240 --> 00:28:05,840
I was more suspicious of you.
495
00:28:06,920 --> 00:28:08,160
When did it change?
496
00:28:16,550 --> 00:28:17,350
On the day of the wedding,
497
00:28:17,010 --> 00:28:19,050
[Ye Xing, a Shadow Envoy]
498
00:28:17,530 --> 00:28:19,530
the one who died was my twin brother.
499
00:28:19,560 --> 00:28:20,510
My brother and I were
500
00:28:20,510 --> 00:28:22,910
secret guards raised by Princess Yunzhao.
501
00:28:24,310 --> 00:28:25,510
Up until the wedding,
502
00:28:25,750 --> 00:28:26,750
our existence was
503
00:28:26,830 --> 00:28:28,630
unknown even to the Grand Tutor.
504
00:28:35,880 --> 00:28:36,960
Aren't you dead?
505
00:28:38,590 --> 00:28:40,160
Before Mother went to Lingfeng Fort,
506
00:28:40,160 --> 00:28:41,560
she sent him on an errand.
507
00:28:42,030 --> 00:28:43,550
But by the time he returned,
508
00:28:43,550 --> 00:28:45,080
Mother was already killed.
509
00:28:45,110 --> 00:28:47,330
When we entered the city that day,
I stayed behind
510
00:28:47,330 --> 00:28:48,590
just to tell Li Mao that
511
00:28:49,670 --> 00:28:50,870
I've found a witness.
512
00:28:51,830 --> 00:28:53,440
Lejun is severely injured and unconscious.
513
00:28:53,440 --> 00:28:54,480
If she wakes up,
514
00:28:54,920 --> 00:28:56,380
ask her to think carefully
515
00:28:56,680 --> 00:28:58,740
if there are any other witness clues.
516
00:28:59,510 --> 00:29:01,840
I had someone look for the groom's family,
517
00:29:02,400 --> 00:29:04,060
hoping to find some new clues.
518
00:29:04,340 --> 00:29:05,070
Then, My Lady
519
00:29:05,510 --> 00:29:06,790
ordered me to immediately take control
520
00:29:06,790 --> 00:29:07,880
of the groom's family
521
00:29:07,880 --> 00:29:09,030
and bring them to Jiankang,
522
00:29:09,030 --> 00:29:09,720
to see if anyone
523
00:29:09,720 --> 00:29:11,650
would take the opportunity to act.
524
00:29:11,720 --> 00:29:13,830
As expected, Prince Qi's men came.
525
00:29:15,190 --> 00:29:17,270
So you suspected Li Lejun early on.
526
00:29:18,030 --> 00:29:19,090
They took the bait.
527
00:29:19,960 --> 00:29:21,820
I just cast the hook for everyone.
528
00:29:22,590 --> 00:29:24,000
Luring the snake out of its hole
529
00:29:24,000 --> 00:29:25,260
also alerts the snake.
530
00:29:25,510 --> 00:29:26,590
Li Mao and Li Lejun
531
00:29:27,000 --> 00:29:28,680
must've noticed your suspicion,
532
00:29:28,680 --> 00:29:30,070
and will soon find out that
533
00:29:30,070 --> 00:29:30,750
the groom's family
534
00:29:30,750 --> 00:29:32,010
actually know nothing
535
00:29:32,510 --> 00:29:33,770
and aren't witnesses.
536
00:29:34,200 --> 00:29:35,440
So what if they know?
537
00:29:41,640 --> 00:29:42,200
Alright.
538
00:29:43,310 --> 00:29:44,340
Then let's talk about me.
539
00:29:44,340 --> 00:29:46,340
When exactly did I give myself away?
540
00:29:48,960 --> 00:29:51,680
When Cui Jun took my mother hostage.
541
00:29:52,160 --> 00:29:54,030
Crown Prince Wenxi died long ago!
542
00:29:54,030 --> 00:29:55,000
He didn't die!
543
00:29:57,350 --> 00:29:58,610
Cui Jun was taken away.
544
00:29:58,640 --> 00:30:00,960
The kidnapper left a message on the wall,
saying they were
545
00:30:00,960 --> 00:30:03,000
acting on Crown Prince Wenxi's orders.
546
00:30:03,000 --> 00:30:03,730
Impossible.
547
00:30:07,110 --> 00:30:08,440
Being overly certain is
548
00:30:09,200 --> 00:30:10,530
indeed inappropriate.
549
00:30:10,750 --> 00:30:12,080
Once suspicion arises,
550
00:30:12,590 --> 00:30:13,650
it can't be curbed.
551
00:30:14,510 --> 00:30:16,070
Xiyue Restaurant keeps telling stories
552
00:30:16,070 --> 00:30:17,830
about the token and Crown Prince Wenxi.
553
00:30:17,830 --> 00:30:19,400
If Crown Prince Wenxi is really alive,
554
00:30:19,400 --> 00:30:20,460
how old would he be?
555
00:30:20,590 --> 00:30:22,830
Twenty-four years ago... So, 24.
556
00:30:24,640 --> 00:30:26,880
The Dowager Princess's
contradictory attitude towards you...
557
00:30:26,880 --> 00:30:28,070
Wuyi is also my son.
558
00:30:29,590 --> 00:30:31,520
Then why refuse to go see Xiao Wuyi?
559
00:30:32,150 --> 00:30:34,410
Xiao Wuyi would never kill the Princess.
560
00:30:35,640 --> 00:30:37,370
And Mother's blind trust in you
561
00:30:37,750 --> 00:30:39,240
when she was at the Cui Mansion.
562
00:30:39,240 --> 00:30:40,570
Who says we stand alone?
563
00:30:40,720 --> 00:30:41,920
We share weal and woe.
564
00:30:42,510 --> 00:30:43,400
He indeed
565
00:30:43,400 --> 00:30:45,060
gave himself a very nice name.
566
00:30:48,510 --> 00:30:49,160
Also,
567
00:30:51,030 --> 00:30:53,160
her evaluation of Crown Prince Wenxi.
568
00:30:53,530 --> 00:30:55,070
Mother said Crown Prince Wenxi is
569
00:30:55,070 --> 00:30:56,510
someone who values the world
570
00:30:56,510 --> 00:30:57,720
more than himself,
571
00:30:57,880 --> 00:31:00,000
who spares no effort for this world,
572
00:31:00,400 --> 00:31:02,350
and that those who can bear this saying
573
00:31:02,350 --> 00:31:03,720
are few in this world.
574
00:31:06,640 --> 00:31:07,720
I happen to know
575
00:31:08,440 --> 00:31:09,970
a lunatic of such a caliber.
576
00:31:12,680 --> 00:31:13,440
Xie Jiayu,
577
00:31:14,590 --> 00:31:16,590
so you have such a high opinion of me.
578
00:31:17,270 --> 00:31:18,070
Xiao Wuyi,
579
00:31:19,080 --> 00:31:21,280
it's time to reveal your true identity.
580
00:31:23,270 --> 00:31:23,880
Yes.
581
00:31:26,890 --> 00:31:28,520
I am Crown Prince Wenxi.
582
00:31:32,200 --> 00:31:34,870
[Prince Jing'an's Mansion]
583
00:31:41,440 --> 00:31:43,170
It's time to bring Mother home.
584
00:31:43,790 --> 00:31:46,450
Nanxing, help me with
my grooming and dressing.
585
00:31:51,960 --> 00:31:52,960
Over the years,
586
00:31:53,200 --> 00:31:55,920
my Xie family had received so much favor
from the Princess.
587
00:31:55,920 --> 00:31:57,050
My Shanji Hall could
588
00:31:57,160 --> 00:31:58,790
stay open thanks to the Princess's
589
00:31:58,790 --> 00:32:00,270
years of financial support.
590
00:32:00,270 --> 00:32:01,550
These Buddhist scriptures were
591
00:32:01,550 --> 00:32:02,720
hand-copied by the women and children
592
00:32:02,720 --> 00:32:04,320
of Shanji Hall these few days
593
00:32:04,440 --> 00:32:06,000
to be offered to the Princess.
594
00:32:06,000 --> 00:32:07,440
Offer condolences!
595
00:32:09,720 --> 00:32:11,520
Princess Pingning has arrived.
596
00:32:15,200 --> 00:32:16,730
Greetings, Your Highness.
597
00:32:24,610 --> 00:32:27,090
My brother and I've had a tough life.
598
00:32:27,680 --> 00:32:30,010
Thankfully, the Princess took care of us.
599
00:32:30,480 --> 00:32:32,210
We're forever indebted to her.
600
00:32:32,400 --> 00:32:33,800
I have requested a decree
601
00:32:34,310 --> 00:32:36,110
to be an escort for the Princess.
602
00:32:53,110 --> 00:32:54,510
Greetings, Grand Tutor.
603
00:32:58,680 --> 00:33:00,740
Doing this even when you're injured.
604
00:33:01,400 --> 00:33:03,130
This is very thoughtful of you.
605
00:33:15,440 --> 00:33:16,720
It's time!
606
00:33:17,110 --> 00:33:19,720
Start the procession! Break the bowl!
607
00:33:23,880 --> 00:33:24,550
Wait!
608
00:33:37,750 --> 00:33:38,440
Father,
609
00:33:39,200 --> 00:33:40,060
with me around,
610
00:33:40,590 --> 00:33:42,320
how can my cousin break the bowl
611
00:33:42,530 --> 00:33:44,190
and an outsider be the escort?
612
00:33:51,640 --> 00:33:53,900
Lejun fell down the cliff with my mother,
613
00:33:54,440 --> 00:33:56,100
yet she recovered so quickly.
614
00:33:58,310 --> 00:33:59,070
It seems
615
00:34:00,200 --> 00:34:01,550
you're very blessed.
616
00:34:02,240 --> 00:34:04,920
Yaoyao, I'm sorry.
617
00:34:05,480 --> 00:34:07,280
I didn't hold onto the Princess.
618
00:34:07,480 --> 00:34:10,280
If only I had moved faster that day.
619
00:34:10,710 --> 00:34:12,590
Yaoyao, where have you been?
620
00:34:12,880 --> 00:34:14,400
It's been past the 7 days of mourning,
621
00:34:14,400 --> 00:34:16,550
and you haven't been
kneeling by the coffin.
622
00:34:16,550 --> 00:34:18,010
I forbade her from coming.
623
00:34:18,280 --> 00:34:20,050
I thought I made it very clear last time
624
00:34:20,050 --> 00:34:23,050
that you're not allowed to
set foot in the Xie Mansion!
625
00:34:37,150 --> 00:34:38,679
Everyone, you may not know,
626
00:34:39,070 --> 00:34:41,130
but my mother had divorced my father.
627
00:34:43,670 --> 00:34:44,710
Mother wouldn't want...
628
00:34:44,710 --> 00:34:45,190
Divorced?
629
00:34:45,190 --> 00:34:47,650
To be buried
in the Xie ancestral graveyard.
630
00:34:48,110 --> 00:34:49,030
So today,
631
00:34:50,190 --> 00:34:51,280
I'm here to take her away.
632
00:34:51,280 --> 00:34:52,080
How insolent!
633
00:34:52,360 --> 00:34:53,000
Jiayu,
634
00:34:53,480 --> 00:34:54,960
you can't just spout nonsense.
635
00:34:54,960 --> 00:34:56,960
How could your parents be divorced?
636
00:34:56,960 --> 00:34:58,560
I have two letters in my hand.
637
00:34:59,590 --> 00:35:00,450
This letter was
638
00:35:01,110 --> 00:35:03,480
written to me by my mother
when she left Jiankang.
639
00:35:03,480 --> 00:35:05,340
She said she'd divorced my father
640
00:35:05,360 --> 00:35:06,670
and wanted to go out to relax
641
00:35:06,670 --> 00:35:07,870
and travel the world.
642
00:35:08,230 --> 00:35:09,430
The second letter...
643
00:35:11,510 --> 00:35:12,760
was written to my father
when my mother was
644
00:35:12,760 --> 00:35:13,760
at Lingfeng Fort.
645
00:35:15,070 --> 00:35:17,200
These are the Princess's belongings.
646
00:35:20,460 --> 00:35:22,060
Unfortunately, she died
647
00:35:22,920 --> 00:35:24,320
before she could mail it.
648
00:35:25,360 --> 00:35:26,000
Father,
649
00:35:27,000 --> 00:35:28,060
want to take a look?
650
00:35:28,510 --> 00:35:29,550
No need.
651
00:35:31,590 --> 00:35:33,440
My marriage to your mother
652
00:35:34,110 --> 00:35:35,670
was decreed by the royals.
653
00:35:36,480 --> 00:35:39,070
So, without verification of the Clan Court
654
00:35:39,070 --> 00:35:40,360
and the approval of the Inner Court,
655
00:35:40,360 --> 00:35:41,710
your divorce paper is
656
00:35:42,280 --> 00:35:44,280
utterly invalid.
657
00:35:45,440 --> 00:35:47,960
Since the entire Xie family
is gathered here today,
658
00:35:47,960 --> 00:35:49,280
I will say it again:
659
00:35:50,990 --> 00:35:53,850
Xie Jiayu is not
Yunzhao's and my biological child!
660
00:35:55,150 --> 00:35:56,630
-What?
-What?
661
00:35:56,880 --> 00:35:57,900
-What's this?
-I don't know.
662
00:35:57,900 --> 00:35:59,130
She is just
663
00:35:59,880 --> 00:36:02,340
an orphan
Yunzhao picked up from somewhere.
664
00:36:03,320 --> 00:36:04,030
A little pet
665
00:36:04,030 --> 00:36:06,360
kept by Yunzhao for just over a decade.
666
00:36:07,760 --> 00:36:08,920
So, what right...
667
00:36:10,880 --> 00:36:12,210
What right does she have
668
00:36:12,670 --> 00:36:15,330
to make decisions for
my Xie family and Yunzhao?
669
00:36:15,480 --> 00:36:17,140
Let's not waste any more time.
670
00:36:19,110 --> 00:36:19,800
T-This...
671
00:36:34,360 --> 00:36:37,420
Did Prince Jing'an's Mansion
raise a bunch of bandits?
672
00:36:37,800 --> 00:36:39,630
Barging into my Xie mourning hall
673
00:36:39,630 --> 00:36:41,090
to snatch the coffin, huh?
674
00:36:41,590 --> 00:36:42,070
Is there
675
00:36:42,800 --> 00:36:44,230
still any law and order?
676
00:36:44,800 --> 00:36:45,530
Grand Tutor.
677
00:36:46,760 --> 00:36:48,030
Xie Jiayu's word is law
678
00:36:48,480 --> 00:36:49,280
today.
679
00:36:51,590 --> 00:36:54,320
I hope you can let Jiayu
finish what she has to say.
680
00:37:02,150 --> 00:37:04,280
Cui Jun is a secret spy of Northern Qin.
681
00:37:04,360 --> 00:37:05,960
After Mother was controlled by him,
682
00:37:05,960 --> 00:37:07,420
she had a chance to escape.
683
00:37:08,440 --> 00:37:10,590
But she heard Cui Jun
mention the An-Lu case.
684
00:37:10,590 --> 00:37:11,840
To pry the truth
685
00:37:11,840 --> 00:37:12,880
out of Cui Jun,
686
00:37:13,320 --> 00:37:15,520
Mother spared no effort to deal with him
687
00:37:15,760 --> 00:37:17,420
and almost couldn't get away.
688
00:37:18,360 --> 00:37:19,290
Mother knew that
689
00:37:19,400 --> 00:37:21,930
the An-Lu case was
a lifelong emotional burden of yours.
690
00:37:21,930 --> 00:37:23,600
You need closure.
691
00:37:24,840 --> 00:37:26,440
So she'd rather risk her life
692
00:37:27,280 --> 00:37:28,940
just to seek the truth for you.
693
00:37:29,760 --> 00:37:30,890
Mother once thought
694
00:37:31,030 --> 00:37:32,830
your obsessions were all wrong.
695
00:37:34,030 --> 00:37:36,400
Only later did she know she was wrong too.
696
00:37:37,320 --> 00:37:38,070
Now,
697
00:37:40,440 --> 00:37:41,770
the truth is in my hands.
698
00:37:49,110 --> 00:37:49,630
Yaoyao!
699
00:37:50,400 --> 00:37:50,800
Don't!
700
00:37:52,920 --> 00:37:53,650
Grand Tutor!
701
00:37:54,480 --> 00:37:55,150
I said to
702
00:37:55,800 --> 00:37:57,860
let Xie Jiayu finish speaking today.
703
00:38:02,150 --> 00:38:02,800
Father.
704
00:38:04,110 --> 00:38:05,510
My mother was murdered.
705
00:38:06,480 --> 00:38:08,150
Do you dare to let me investigate
706
00:38:08,150 --> 00:38:09,880
who really murdered my mother?
707
00:38:14,000 --> 00:38:16,280
Xie Jiayu, the nerve of you to say this.
708
00:38:17,320 --> 00:38:18,670
It was clearly because
the horse got spooked
709
00:38:18,670 --> 00:38:20,230
that your mother had that accidental fall.
710
00:38:20,230 --> 00:38:21,670
If you hadn't swapped carriages with her,
711
00:38:21,670 --> 00:38:23,360
it would've been you instead.
712
00:38:23,800 --> 00:38:24,760
What else is there to investigate?
713
00:38:24,760 --> 00:38:26,070
Fine, I understand.
714
00:38:27,480 --> 00:38:29,340
If you don't want to investigate,
715
00:38:30,670 --> 00:38:31,670
I'll do it myself.
716
00:38:33,070 --> 00:38:34,800
I'll get justice for my mother.
717
00:38:42,380 --> 00:38:43,980
Let me ask you again, Father.
718
00:38:44,030 --> 00:38:46,630
If I want to exchange the An-Lu case
for Mother,
719
00:38:47,110 --> 00:38:48,770
will you make the trade or not?
720
00:38:48,860 --> 00:38:50,410
No, no, you...
721
00:38:50,440 --> 00:38:51,110
Father.
722
00:38:52,010 --> 00:38:54,570
Will you make the trade or not?
723
00:39:02,110 --> 00:39:03,240
No! Don't, don't!
724
00:39:03,760 --> 00:39:07,030
If there's any truth
to the An-Lu case,
725
00:39:07,030 --> 00:39:09,230
then that's a matter of state!
726
00:39:09,800 --> 00:39:12,670
How can you jeopardize the state
727
00:39:13,150 --> 00:39:14,950
for your own selfish interests?
728
00:39:15,480 --> 00:39:16,080
Is that so?
729
00:39:17,230 --> 00:39:17,960
Then Father,
730
00:39:18,590 --> 00:39:20,070
in the repeating crossbow case,
731
00:39:20,070 --> 00:39:21,760
didn't you jeopardize the state
732
00:39:21,760 --> 00:39:22,880
for your own selfish interests?
733
00:39:22,880 --> 00:39:23,630
Nonsense!
734
00:39:23,840 --> 00:39:26,920
What does your father have to do
with the repeating crossbow?
735
00:39:26,920 --> 00:39:28,440
Whether I'm speaking nonsense,
736
00:39:28,440 --> 00:39:29,670
Father knows best.
737
00:39:30,210 --> 00:39:32,070
Whether I want to
burn everything down with me,
738
00:39:32,070 --> 00:39:33,400
Father also knows best.
739
00:39:35,800 --> 00:39:36,590
Mother told me
740
00:39:36,590 --> 00:39:37,800
your past stories.
741
00:39:40,710 --> 00:39:42,510
Since you love someone else,
742
00:39:43,110 --> 00:39:45,310
since even the beginning was a mistake,
743
00:39:45,360 --> 00:39:47,620
then why wouldn't you let Mother be free?
744
00:39:52,800 --> 00:39:54,460
From the Capital to Jiankang,
745
00:39:55,230 --> 00:39:56,290
too many people are
746
00:39:56,630 --> 00:39:58,630
trapped in the past and in the court.
747
00:39:59,150 --> 00:40:00,400
Mother is gone.
748
00:40:02,190 --> 00:40:03,070
I just want her
749
00:40:03,070 --> 00:40:04,800
to find peace in the afterlife.
750
00:40:06,400 --> 00:40:07,760
How could you—how could anyone—
751
00:40:07,760 --> 00:40:10,000
understand my love for Yunzhao?
752
00:40:11,360 --> 00:40:12,710
She was the one
753
00:40:13,070 --> 00:40:14,840
who chose the wrong beginning.
754
00:40:15,230 --> 00:40:15,960
Since it was wrong,
755
00:40:15,960 --> 00:40:17,820
then it must be wrong till the end.
756
00:40:18,000 --> 00:40:19,840
That's what she owed me.
757
00:40:25,000 --> 00:40:25,730
I'll trade!
758
00:40:26,480 --> 00:40:27,280
I'll trade.
759
00:40:32,360 --> 00:40:33,440
Mother was right.
760
00:40:34,670 --> 00:40:35,630
Nothing...
761
00:40:37,540 --> 00:40:39,070
can outweigh the An-Lu case
762
00:40:39,960 --> 00:40:41,400
in your heart.
763
00:40:51,760 --> 00:40:53,710
Today, the entire Xie family is here.
764
00:40:53,710 --> 00:40:55,070
Please be my witnesses.
765
00:40:55,800 --> 00:40:57,860
Mother wrote a divorce paper long ago,
766
00:40:57,860 --> 00:40:59,720
and Father has agreed to it today.
767
00:40:59,800 --> 00:41:00,460
From now on,
768
00:41:00,960 --> 00:41:04,160
Princess Yunzhao and the Xie family
have no further ties,
769
00:41:05,110 --> 00:41:06,170
parting amicably.
770
00:41:22,110 --> 00:41:23,070
Even if...
771
00:41:25,670 --> 00:41:27,670
you take Yunzhao away today,
772
00:41:28,400 --> 00:41:32,060
without the Emperor and Empress Dowager
annulling the marriage,
773
00:41:32,680 --> 00:41:34,230
she, Li Fuhua,
774
00:41:35,030 --> 00:41:36,670
will always be my wife!
775
00:41:36,670 --> 00:41:37,550
Her soul will
776
00:41:37,920 --> 00:41:40,320
never leave the Xie ancestral hall!
777
00:41:44,280 --> 00:41:46,680
You don't need to
worry about that, Father.
778
00:41:48,880 --> 00:41:49,480
Father.
779
00:41:52,550 --> 00:41:54,880
This is the last time
I'll call you Father.
