00:00:56,320 --> 00:01:02,720
(The Shadow Sovereign)
2
00:01:08,010 --> 00:01:09,368
I, Shen Xiao,
3
00:01:09,946 --> 00:01:11,321
wish Your Majesty good health.
4
00:01:11,954 --> 00:01:13,168
I'm well.
5
00:01:13,634 --> 00:01:14,928
Rise and take your seat.
6
00:01:15,561 --> 00:01:16,961
Thank you for Your Majesty's grace.
7
00:01:17,753 --> 00:01:18,967
Let the banquet begin.
8
00:01:26,522 --> 00:01:28,335
- Come on. - Cheers.
9
00:01:34,682 --> 00:01:37,280
I would never recommend someone so shameless.
10
00:01:38,642 --> 00:01:41,602
If you're willing to serve the nobles, why bother with the imperial exams?
11
00:01:42,402 --> 00:01:44,815
You might as well settle comfortably into being a courtesan.
12
00:01:46,402 --> 00:01:47,616
Your Highness.
13
00:01:50,362 --> 00:01:54,456
Just now, I heard Your Highness mention me outside the hall.
14
00:01:54,802 --> 00:01:56,176
With this humble wine,
15
00:01:56,482 --> 00:01:58,055
I offer my small token of gratitude.
16
00:02:03,962 --> 00:02:05,440
Congratulations, Censor Shen.
17
00:02:05,601 --> 00:02:07,696
But this is just the thanks from the Top Scholar.
18
00:02:07,841 --> 00:02:09,159
I feel unworthy to accept it.
19
00:02:09,242 --> 00:02:10,679
The princess I know
20
00:02:10,762 --> 00:02:13,416
would never feel guilty.
21
00:02:13,881 --> 00:02:15,296
Could it be that Your Highness
22
00:02:15,561 --> 00:02:18,616
isn't congratulating me sincerely?
23
00:02:29,642 --> 00:02:30,977
The princess can't hold her liquor.
24
00:02:31,001 --> 00:02:32,255
I'll drink for her.
25
00:02:39,402 --> 00:02:42,480
Top Scholar, when did you and the princess get so close?
26
00:02:51,161 --> 00:02:53,078
My connection with Her Highness
27
00:02:53,192 --> 00:02:55,487
isn't something I can explain in a few words.
28
00:02:55,914 --> 00:02:56,956
For example...
29
00:02:57,056 --> 00:03:00,511
Don't take the Top Scholar's jokes so seriously, Prince Consort.
30
00:03:01,191 --> 00:03:02,263
Is that so?
31
00:03:02,344 --> 00:03:05,718
I'm drunk. Let me apologize to Father and head home.
32
00:03:14,401 --> 00:03:18,055
How could Your Highness leave so soon at such a grand banquet?
33
00:03:19,449 --> 00:03:20,663
How dare you!
34
00:03:21,881 --> 00:03:23,495
Doesn't Your Highness know
35
00:03:23,906 --> 00:03:25,302
that I, for one,
36
00:03:25,441 --> 00:03:27,358
always repay every slight?
37
00:03:27,441 --> 00:03:28,815
I came here today
38
00:03:28,962 --> 00:03:30,896
just to return a favor.
39
00:03:39,809 --> 00:03:41,240
May I report to Your Majesty.
40
00:03:41,562 --> 00:03:42,856
I, Shen Xiao,
41
00:03:43,233 --> 00:03:46,168
wish to impeach Princess Zhao Yang, Li Shu,
42
00:03:47,161 --> 00:03:49,760
as the Supervising Censor.
43
00:03:56,929 --> 00:03:59,217
There has been a severe drought in Guanzhong for over three months.
44
00:03:59,241 --> 00:04:00,418
The land is scorched for miles.
45
00:04:00,442 --> 00:04:01,962
Not a single grain has been harvested.
46
00:04:06,082 --> 00:04:07,455
Refugees flood the region.
47
00:04:07,882 --> 00:04:09,776
People are forced to trade children for food.
48
00:04:12,499 --> 00:04:14,539
Now, disaster victims are pouring into the capital.
49
00:04:14,801 --> 00:04:16,656
Grain merchants are driving up prices.
50
00:04:17,241 --> 00:04:19,161
They're getting rich off the nation's suffering.
51
00:04:23,762 --> 00:04:27,096
Meanwhile, Princess Zhao Yang parties every night.
52
00:04:27,209 --> 00:04:28,529
Her extravagance knows no bounds.
53
00:04:28,681 --> 00:04:30,081
She ignores the people's suffering.
54
00:04:30,161 --> 00:04:31,758
She has failed the people.
55
00:04:31,840 --> 00:04:33,494
She goes against royal virtue.
56
00:04:40,082 --> 00:04:41,296
How dare you!
57
00:04:41,961 --> 00:04:44,534
Slandering the Princess. You must have a death wish.
58
00:04:49,537 --> 00:04:50,912
Is this true?
59
00:04:53,322 --> 00:04:54,536
It's true.
60
00:04:54,801 --> 00:04:56,078
I can vouch for it.
61
00:04:56,288 --> 00:04:57,928
- Zhao Yang is indeed... - Enough!
62
00:04:58,041 --> 00:05:00,455
The drought in Guanzhong has been discussed in court.
63
00:05:00,730 --> 00:05:01,926
But it's still unresolved.
64
00:05:02,073 --> 00:05:04,559
What exactly is your Ministry of Revenue doing?
65
00:05:04,642 --> 00:05:07,202
Relief grain has been distributed, but prices keep skyrocketing.
66
00:05:07,241 --> 00:05:09,481
I'm afraid someone is hoarding grain and raising prices.
67
00:05:09,562 --> 00:05:10,776
That's absurd.
68
00:05:10,882 --> 00:05:14,096
I believe if we transport grain from Jiangnan to the capital,
69
00:05:14,361 --> 00:05:16,616
there will be enough grain and prices will stabilize.
70
00:05:17,305 --> 00:05:19,022
Censor Shen is absolutely right.
71
00:05:19,161 --> 00:05:23,021
However, the canal connecting north and south is badly blocked.
72
00:05:23,102 --> 00:05:24,618
It needs urgent repairs from the Ministry.
73
00:05:24,642 --> 00:05:25,842
But the treasury is tight now.
74
00:05:25,875 --> 00:05:27,161
Repairing the canal is costly and burdens the people.
75
00:05:27,185 --> 00:05:29,946
How my Ministry spends funds is none of your concern, Second Brother.
76
00:05:30,442 --> 00:05:32,255
The Yongtong Canal is crucial for transport.
77
00:05:32,801 --> 00:05:34,055
Its foundation lies in Peiyuan.
78
00:05:34,241 --> 00:05:35,457
It's a benefit for generations to come.
79
00:05:35,481 --> 00:05:37,015
A mere eighth-rank official
80
00:05:37,392 --> 00:05:39,086
dares to comment on state affairs?
81
00:05:39,402 --> 00:05:40,616
That's arrogant.
82
00:05:41,681 --> 00:05:44,176
If he's an official, why shouldn't he speak up?
83
00:05:45,649 --> 00:05:46,822
Second Brother, you defend him so much.
84
00:05:46,846 --> 00:05:49,420
Could it be that Shen Xiao spoke on your orders?
85
00:05:50,681 --> 00:05:52,815
Elder Brother, you refuse to discuss real issues.
86
00:05:53,208 --> 00:05:54,783
All you do is drag others in?
87
00:05:55,281 --> 00:05:56,895
Let's ask His Majesty to decide.
88
00:06:03,402 --> 00:06:04,616
Your Majesty.
89
00:06:05,082 --> 00:06:07,577
Large-scale construction might shake the foundation of the nation.
90
00:06:07,601 --> 00:06:09,799
I think someone doesn't want the canal repaired,
91
00:06:09,962 --> 00:06:12,799
so they can hoard, speculate, and profit from the nation's hardship.
92
00:06:12,952 --> 00:06:14,166
Li Yan!
93
00:06:14,281 --> 00:06:15,560
What did you just say?
94
00:06:42,490 --> 00:06:44,224
That's just ridiculous.
95
00:06:44,393 --> 00:06:45,720
Enough!
96
00:06:51,361 --> 00:06:52,575
Crown Prince,
97
00:06:52,841 --> 00:06:55,976
I order you to make Yongtong Canal navigable in three months.
98
00:06:56,442 --> 00:06:58,518
Chief Commandant Cui Jin Zhi of the Yulin Guards
99
00:06:58,617 --> 00:06:59,992
will send troops to assist.
100
00:07:00,281 --> 00:07:01,479
If there's any delay,
101
00:07:01,562 --> 00:07:02,758
you'll be severely punished.
102
00:07:02,841 --> 00:07:03,999
Three months?
103
00:07:04,082 --> 00:07:05,360
How is that even possible?
104
00:07:05,441 --> 00:07:07,680
Right. What are we supposed to do?
105
00:07:07,841 --> 00:07:10,055
- I accept the order. - I accept the order.
106
00:07:24,962 --> 00:07:26,656
Princess Zhao Yang, Li Shu.
107
00:07:28,002 --> 00:07:29,216
From today onward,
108
00:07:29,402 --> 00:07:31,418
you will hand over your fief income to the treasury.
109
00:07:31,442 --> 00:07:33,055
Once the disaster eases,
110
00:07:33,304 --> 00:07:34,600
we'll discuss restoring it.
111
00:07:36,041 --> 00:07:37,641
Thank you, Your Majesty, for your grace.
112
00:07:37,841 --> 00:07:40,319
(Shen Xiao, the impeachment was just a front.)
113
00:07:40,425 --> 00:07:42,025
(Helping the people was your real goal.)
114
00:07:42,072 --> 00:07:44,327
(You really didn't let me down.)
115
00:07:49,681 --> 00:07:52,120
That Shen guy actually impeached Your Highness in court.
116
00:07:52,681 --> 00:07:54,078
He's got some nerve.
117
00:07:54,200 --> 00:07:55,854
He didn't really say anything wrong.
118
00:07:56,161 --> 00:07:57,537
But he doesn't know the real story.
119
00:07:57,561 --> 00:07:59,198
Thanks to his stunt,
120
00:07:59,376 --> 00:08:01,191
I can explain things to the Crown Prince.
121
00:08:01,561 --> 00:08:03,775
That was brilliant.
122
00:08:05,176 --> 00:08:08,151
What a bold Top Scholar.
123
00:08:08,441 --> 00:08:10,078
Since the exams began,
124
00:08:10,161 --> 00:08:13,319
he's the boldest one among all the officials.
125
00:08:13,402 --> 00:08:14,958
He's exactly my type.
126
00:08:15,041 --> 00:08:16,718
If you like him, just go find him.
127
00:08:16,834 --> 00:08:18,391
Why are you blocking my way?
128
00:08:18,472 --> 00:08:20,753
Obviously, I'm here to watch you make a fool of yourself.
129
00:08:24,041 --> 00:08:25,559
You want to see me embarrassed?
130
00:08:25,642 --> 00:08:27,375
Why stand out here in the wind then?
131
00:08:27,602 --> 00:08:30,096
Why not come stay at my place for a few days?
132
00:08:31,201 --> 00:08:32,878
I'll have Cui Jin Zhi keep you company.
133
00:08:32,992 --> 00:08:35,326
- You... - You can look at him to your heart's content.
134
00:08:36,362 --> 00:08:38,216
Stop using him to disgust me.
135
00:08:38,441 --> 00:08:39,480
If it weren't for you,
136
00:08:39,561 --> 00:08:41,818
the daughter of a lowly maid, using dirty tricks back then,
137
00:08:41,842 --> 00:08:43,816
how would he have become your husband?
138
00:08:44,154 --> 00:08:46,128
Cui Jin Zhi must've been blind.
139
00:08:48,681 --> 00:08:49,718
After all these years,
140
00:08:49,801 --> 00:08:51,360
you still don't get it.
141
00:08:51,498 --> 00:08:53,311
Look at your unlucky husband.
142
00:08:53,561 --> 00:08:55,880
You wore him out in just three years.
143
00:08:56,097 --> 00:08:58,173
Someone as proud as Cui Jin Zhi
144
00:08:58,328 --> 00:09:01,472
would never marry a rude and brainless princess like you.
145
00:09:01,602 --> 00:09:03,295
How dare you insult me?
146
00:09:04,081 --> 00:09:05,295
You...
147
00:09:08,512 --> 00:09:10,246
I did steal Cui Jin Zhi from you.
148
00:09:10,482 --> 00:09:12,456
But didn't you get your revenge?
149
00:09:14,602 --> 00:09:16,295
On my wedding day,
150
00:09:16,907 --> 00:09:18,680
you told Cui Jin Zhi
151
00:09:19,842 --> 00:09:21,576
that I advised Father
152
00:09:22,081 --> 00:09:24,775
to execute his disgraced father and brother.
153
00:09:25,482 --> 00:09:26,696
Isn't that right?
154
00:09:44,697 --> 00:09:46,112
You were the one who advised it.
155
00:09:46,642 --> 00:09:48,816
You told His Majesty to kill my father and brother.
156
00:09:52,642 --> 00:09:54,919
His Majesty wanted to investigate the defeat.
157
00:09:55,024 --> 00:09:56,799
Your father and brother were the commanders.
158
00:09:56,937 --> 00:09:58,350
Their crimes were unforgivable.
159
00:09:58,431 --> 00:09:59,964
If I didn't go along with His Majesty,
160
00:10:00,561 --> 00:10:02,375
even you would've faced his wrath.
161
00:10:02,929 --> 00:10:04,543
I did it to protect you.
162
00:10:05,264 --> 00:10:06,799
To protect me?
163
00:10:08,842 --> 00:10:10,056
Li Shu.
164
00:10:12,161 --> 00:10:13,856
Who do you think you are?
165
00:10:14,163 --> 00:10:17,480
You're just a lowly orphan who crawled out of the Cold Palace.
166
00:10:17,752 --> 00:10:19,680
I pitied you and protected you.
167
00:10:19,842 --> 00:10:21,919
I even went against my family and chose you.
168
00:10:22,017 --> 00:10:23,871
And this is how you repay me?
169
00:10:28,482 --> 00:10:30,078
I really regret it.
170
00:10:30,161 --> 00:10:32,616
I regret saving you from the Cold Palace.
171
00:10:40,482 --> 00:10:41,816
From now on,
172
00:10:42,168 --> 00:10:44,462
you're nothing but the cast-off wife of the Cui family.
173
00:10:44,762 --> 00:10:46,576
We're done.
174
00:10:48,201 --> 00:10:49,399
Cui Jin Zhi really thinks
175
00:10:49,482 --> 00:10:52,295
that just a word from me could sway His Majesty's will?
176
00:10:53,105 --> 00:10:54,302
What a fool.
177
00:10:54,402 --> 00:10:55,796
If you want me to get rid of
178
00:10:55,876 --> 00:10:57,756
someone clueless like him for you, just say so.
179
00:10:57,842 --> 00:10:59,576
If you don't want him, neither do I.
180
00:10:59,873 --> 00:11:03,727
Don't forget, you're just the Crown Prince's lapdog.
181
00:11:08,081 --> 00:11:09,198
If you dare mess with me,
182
00:11:09,281 --> 00:11:11,015
let's see how he deals with you.
183
00:11:17,842 --> 00:11:20,559
If she knew the princess and Cui Jin Zhi divorced long ago,
184
00:11:20,652 --> 00:11:22,288
but His Majesty kept it quiet...
185
00:11:22,369 --> 00:11:24,183
Whether she knows or not doesn't matter.
186
00:11:24,882 --> 00:11:26,856
She never liked Cui Jin Zhi anyway.
187
00:11:27,362 --> 00:11:28,895
She just can't stand losing to me.
188
00:11:30,201 --> 00:11:31,456
Go get the horses ready.
189
00:11:32,161 --> 00:11:33,375
Yes.
190
00:11:36,642 --> 00:11:40,255
(So, the Princess and her husband were never really married.)
191
00:11:49,404 --> 00:11:50,840
Divorce letter?
192
00:11:54,001 --> 00:11:55,215
Cui Jin Zhi,
193
00:11:56,201 --> 00:11:59,375
do you still think I'm that lowly orphan from the Cold Palace?
194
00:12:02,842 --> 00:12:06,056
I'm, Princess Zhao Yang, personally appointed by His Majesty.
195
00:12:06,818 --> 00:12:08,351
You want to divorce me?
196
00:12:09,482 --> 00:12:10,696
You're not worthy.
197
00:12:10,930 --> 00:12:12,730
If anyone's divorcing, it's me divorcing you.
198
00:12:14,083 --> 00:12:16,537
Now that you've lost your father and brother, you've got no one to rely on.
199
00:12:16,561 --> 00:12:18,854
If you lose your title as prince consort too,
200
00:12:19,033 --> 00:12:20,711
how will you survive in the Cui family?
201
00:12:20,792 --> 00:12:24,301
Now it's you who needs my status as a princess.
202
00:12:24,642 --> 00:12:26,096
From now on,
203
00:12:26,242 --> 00:12:28,415
it's all about interests between you and me.
204
00:12:28,642 --> 00:12:30,057
Otherwise, we have nothing to do with each other.
205
00:12:30,081 --> 00:12:31,358
I'll report this to Father.
206
00:12:31,441 --> 00:12:33,078
After that, we're done!
207
00:12:33,200 --> 00:12:34,414
Get out.
208
00:12:53,479 --> 00:12:56,079
Looks like Your Highness and your consort drifted apart long ago.
209
00:12:58,528 --> 00:13:01,520
All that affection in public was just for show.
210
00:13:02,362 --> 00:13:04,322
A gentleman doesn't eavesdrop on private matters.
211
00:13:04,561 --> 00:13:06,458
All those classics you studied were for nothing.
212
00:13:06,482 --> 00:13:09,856
I'd rather be a true villain than a fake gentleman.
213
00:13:10,441 --> 00:13:13,696
So, Your Highness and Prince Consort Cui
214
00:13:14,762 --> 00:13:16,696
are really just married in name only?
215
00:13:19,921 --> 00:13:21,175
Censor Shen,
216
00:13:21,642 --> 00:13:24,560
why are you so interested in my relationship with the Prince Consort?
217
00:13:31,362 --> 00:13:32,576
In my opinion,
218
00:13:32,842 --> 00:13:34,738
the Cui family's father and son relied too much on their own power,
219
00:13:34,762 --> 00:13:35,912
they underestimated the enemy on the battlefield,
220
00:13:35,936 --> 00:13:37,776
and caused needless deaths among the soldiers.
221
00:13:38,801 --> 00:13:40,015
Afterward,
222
00:13:42,762 --> 00:13:44,255
they were still as arrogant as ever.
223
00:13:44,375 --> 00:13:46,215
His Majesty should've sent a warning long ago.
224
00:13:46,441 --> 00:13:48,056
That's why he made this decision now.
225
00:13:48,441 --> 00:13:49,655
So, Your Highness,
226
00:13:49,842 --> 00:13:51,056
what did you do wrong?
227
00:13:52,201 --> 00:13:54,696
If Prince Consort Cui blames you for this,
228
00:13:55,441 --> 00:13:57,816
then you really should find someone better.
229
00:14:09,281 --> 00:14:11,456
Then, who should I choose?
230
00:14:12,281 --> 00:14:16,495
The arrogant top scholar who just denounced me in court,
231
00:14:18,081 --> 00:14:21,576
or the one who sold himself for status three months ago, Tan?
232
00:14:28,721 --> 00:14:31,078
Censor Shen, you've been eavesdropping for quite a while.
233
00:14:31,201 --> 00:14:33,216
I don't think you just happened to pass by.
234
00:14:33,306 --> 00:14:34,520
Could it be
235
00:14:36,041 --> 00:14:38,015
that you still can't forget about me?
236
00:14:51,482 --> 00:14:52,696
Yes.
237
00:14:53,386 --> 00:14:54,600
So what?
238
00:15:20,233 --> 00:15:22,047
Seems like I'm not the only one
239
00:15:23,281 --> 00:15:24,895
who can't let go.
240
00:16:10,602 --> 00:16:12,520
Your Highness, I...
241
00:17:10,528 --> 00:17:12,433
Mother...
242
00:17:13,819 --> 00:17:16,736
Mother...
243
00:17:25,074 --> 00:17:28,400
Mother, please don't leave me.
244
00:18:54,842 --> 00:18:56,442
Your Highness, you really sleep soundly.
245
00:18:57,842 --> 00:18:59,375
I only fell asleep
246
00:18:59,583 --> 00:19:01,436
because of you, Censor Shen.
247
00:19:08,681 --> 00:19:11,000
Zhao Yang swore to me,
248
00:19:11,201 --> 00:19:13,761
no one from a humble family would make the honor roll this year.
249
00:19:13,802 --> 00:19:16,415
But now, there's a top scholar, Shen Xiao.
250
00:19:17,441 --> 00:19:19,175
Where is Zhao Yang?
251
00:19:21,129 --> 00:19:22,903
Zhao Yang isn't feeling well today.
252
00:19:23,241 --> 00:19:24,695
She left to rest.
253
00:19:25,241 --> 00:19:27,816
Censor Shen, you publicly accused me today.
254
00:19:28,282 --> 00:19:30,296
What a performance.
255
00:19:30,681 --> 00:19:32,776
Shen Xiao just entered the court.
256
00:19:32,905 --> 00:19:34,423
First, he toasted Zhao Yang,
257
00:19:34,538 --> 00:19:36,134
then suddenly accused her in court.
258
00:19:36,241 --> 00:19:38,001
You got me punished and stripped of my fief.
259
00:19:38,082 --> 00:19:39,759
You caught the emperor's eye,
260
00:19:39,842 --> 00:19:42,559
and gained a reputation for being honest and outspoken,
261
00:19:42,642 --> 00:19:44,655
never afraid to challenge the powerful.
262
00:19:45,642 --> 00:19:48,695
I did want to get back at Your Highness for looking down on me that day.
263
00:19:49,538 --> 00:19:51,752
So, I had to make this matter worth something.
264
00:19:52,441 --> 00:19:54,455
I had to make sure His Majesty noticed me,
265
00:19:56,018 --> 00:19:57,818
so the noble families wouldn't dare touch me.
266
00:19:58,201 --> 00:20:00,455
It also helped prompt His Majesty
267
00:20:00,642 --> 00:20:02,482
to order the reconstruction of Yongtong Canal.
268
00:20:02,905 --> 00:20:04,785
Only then can the people of Guanzhong be saved.
269
00:20:04,833 --> 00:20:06,578
Just a lowly eighth-rank from a humble family
270
00:20:06,602 --> 00:20:08,118
dared act so boldly.
271
00:20:08,201 --> 00:20:11,695
Could it be that they knew each other before?
272
00:20:13,805 --> 00:20:17,199
Your Highness, the urgent matter is fixing the Yongtong Canal.
273
00:20:17,284 --> 00:20:18,321
I know very well
274
00:20:18,402 --> 00:20:21,375
that Zhao Yang would never get involved with someone from a humble family.
275
00:20:31,201 --> 00:20:32,799
The Crown Prince despises the poor,
276
00:20:32,882 --> 00:20:35,519
if the canal isn't fixed in three months,
277
00:20:35,602 --> 00:20:37,078
he'll lose His Majesty's favor.
278
00:20:37,159 --> 00:20:38,997
Yet you claim it's all for the people.
279
00:20:39,082 --> 00:20:43,640
Helping the people is true, but I also hope the Crown Prince loses power.
280
00:20:44,201 --> 00:20:46,256
The Crown Prince ignored the people's lives.
281
00:20:46,433 --> 00:20:47,550
He's not fit to rule.
282
00:20:47,681 --> 00:20:50,415
His Majesty was put on the throne by the noble families,
283
00:20:50,530 --> 00:20:53,846
but lately he's been wary of their power and has started suppressing them.
284
00:20:53,977 --> 00:20:55,937
So the nobles are backing the Crown Prince again.
285
00:20:56,042 --> 00:20:57,655
Of course, His Majesty is wary.
286
00:20:59,042 --> 00:21:00,559
I want His Majesty to see
287
00:21:00,642 --> 00:21:02,296
that I can be useful to him.
288
00:21:03,842 --> 00:21:05,056
You're reckless.
289
00:21:05,642 --> 00:21:07,842
Guessing the emperor's intentions is a capital offense.
290
00:21:08,161 --> 00:21:11,175
You'd even use the relationship between the Crown Prince and the emperor.
291
00:21:11,570 --> 00:21:12,648
Aren't you afraid
292
00:21:12,729 --> 00:21:14,782
I'll spread word of what you just said?
293
00:21:15,324 --> 00:21:17,204
You wouldn't do that, would you, Your Highness?
294
00:21:17,426 --> 00:21:19,880
You protected my position as eighth-rank censor today.
295
00:21:20,153 --> 00:21:21,808
That means I'm still useful to you.
296
00:21:22,961 --> 00:21:24,761
Why not just tell me directly, Your Highness?
297
00:21:25,362 --> 00:21:27,296
What do you want me to do for you?
298
00:21:29,697 --> 00:21:33,230
I just want you to be my male companion.
299
00:21:35,001 --> 00:21:36,496
Just a male companion?
300
00:21:39,082 --> 00:21:41,415
So, how many companions like me do you have?
301
00:21:44,177 --> 00:21:47,495
You're the only scholar companion.
302
00:21:47,642 --> 00:21:49,959
Since you're the only one, I treasure you.
303
00:21:50,061 --> 00:21:51,578
You're not like the others.
304
00:21:51,659 --> 00:21:53,400
Now you're with the Censorate
305
00:21:53,481 --> 00:21:55,296
and work under the Crown Prince.
306
00:21:55,562 --> 00:21:57,279
He won't kill you,
307
00:21:57,393 --> 00:21:59,206
but he'll definitely teach you a lesson.
308
00:21:59,562 --> 00:22:00,776
If needed,
309
00:22:01,345 --> 00:22:03,160
you can ask me for help.
310
00:22:03,335 --> 00:22:04,680
No need for that.
311
00:22:05,282 --> 00:22:07,096
You have plenty of companions around you,
312
00:22:07,377 --> 00:22:08,949
so why care about me?
313
00:22:09,106 --> 00:22:10,600
Now that I'm in the court,
314
00:22:10,961 --> 00:22:12,776
I'm ready to face anything.
315
00:22:13,241 --> 00:22:14,680
Since Your Highness
316
00:22:14,961 --> 00:22:16,576
won't be honest with me,
317
00:22:17,642 --> 00:22:20,695
I will take my leave, then.
318
00:22:39,644 --> 00:22:41,498
What kind of incense do you use?
319
00:22:41,720 --> 00:22:43,160
It smells really calming.
320
00:22:44,337 --> 00:22:45,870
My family is poor,
321
00:22:46,433 --> 00:22:47,728
so I never use incense.
322
00:22:47,920 --> 00:22:49,215
(That's odd.)
323
00:22:49,697 --> 00:22:53,032
(Could there really be a man who naturally smells so good?)
324
00:22:54,961 --> 00:22:56,296
So, Master Shen,
325
00:22:59,362 --> 00:23:01,375
will you share my bed every night from now on?
