00:00:56,328 --> 00:01:02,559
(The Shadow Sovereign)
2
00:01:02,843 --> 00:01:05,520
(Episode 13)
3
00:01:08,644 --> 00:01:11,360
(Princess Zhao Yang's Residence)
4
00:01:16,333 --> 00:01:17,535
Climb up.
5
00:01:18,147 --> 00:01:19,989
How did you know there was a rope here?
6
00:01:22,346 --> 00:01:23,548
Go up first.
7
00:01:29,250 --> 00:01:30,452
Come up.
8
00:01:42,747 --> 00:01:43,949
Le Sheng.
9
00:01:46,083 --> 00:01:48,226
There must be guards at the entrance. We'll sneak in through the window.
10
00:01:48,250 --> 00:01:49,452
Come on.
11
00:02:07,083 --> 00:02:08,285
Wait.
12
00:02:09,873 --> 00:02:12,029
How do you know this place so well?
13
00:02:12,201 --> 00:02:14,041
You'd better have a good explanation for this.
14
00:02:15,285 --> 00:02:17,730
Well, I come here a lot.
15
00:02:17,960 --> 00:02:19,160
You come here a lot?
16
00:02:20,656 --> 00:02:22,818
Saving your sister is what matters most right now.
17
00:02:23,797 --> 00:02:24,999
Keep up.
18
00:02:36,627 --> 00:02:37,829
Shen Xiao.
19
00:02:38,220 --> 00:02:39,422
Shen Xiao.
20
00:02:50,089 --> 00:02:51,291
Shen Xiao.
21
00:02:54,813 --> 00:02:56,015
Who is it?
22
00:03:03,025 --> 00:03:04,308
What are you doing here?
23
00:03:04,435 --> 00:03:05,637
I'm here to get you out.
24
00:03:08,242 --> 00:03:09,484
Are you feeling better?
25
00:03:12,611 --> 00:03:13,892
You came too?
26
00:03:17,626 --> 00:03:19,600
I came to rescue you.
27
00:03:19,853 --> 00:03:21,414
But now it looks like,
28
00:03:21,591 --> 00:03:23,408
I'm not really needed here after all.
29
00:03:26,958 --> 00:03:28,475
Neither of you should've come.
30
00:03:28,595 --> 00:03:30,278
What if someone catches you?
31
00:03:30,523 --> 00:03:32,443
Let's get you out of here first. I'll carry you.
32
00:03:33,167 --> 00:03:34,970
Censor Shen is still hurt.
33
00:03:35,250 --> 00:03:36,892
Let me carry you instead, Sister.
34
00:03:39,375 --> 00:03:41,619
Move aside. I can walk on my own.
35
00:03:46,659 --> 00:03:47,900
Go on, drink.
36
00:03:49,305 --> 00:03:50,680
I'll drink this one.
37
00:03:51,396 --> 00:03:52,912
Let me see
38
00:03:52,995 --> 00:03:57,075
who has put in the most effort today.
39
00:04:01,105 --> 00:04:02,988
Forgive me, Your Highness. The road ahead is blocked.
40
00:04:03,012 --> 00:04:05,090
- We need to take a detour. - Which fool dares to block my way?
41
00:04:05,114 --> 00:04:06,280
Get lost.
42
00:04:07,880 --> 00:04:09,249
Where has the detour taken us?
43
00:04:09,330 --> 00:04:12,408
(Princess Zhao Yang's Residence)
44
00:04:12,767 --> 00:04:15,409
How did we end up outside that wretch Zhao Yang's place?
45
00:04:18,750 --> 00:04:19,952
Zhao Yang?
46
00:04:20,231 --> 00:04:22,464
Are you trying to copy me and do two at once?
47
00:04:22,682 --> 00:04:24,722
Aren't you worried that you'll throw your back out?
48
00:04:31,250 --> 00:04:34,760
What's happening? Why does that person look just like Shen Xiao?
49
00:04:43,604 --> 00:04:45,320
It can't be Shen Xiao.
50
00:04:45,500 --> 00:04:48,062
Your Highness, you already have us.
51
00:04:48,477 --> 00:04:51,120
- Why bother thinking about some random guy outside? - Shut up.
52
00:04:51,472 --> 00:04:53,190
I'm busy thinking.
53
00:05:08,276 --> 00:05:09,960
Censor Shen, you've worked hard.
54
00:05:10,081 --> 00:05:12,082
I can take care of my sister myself.
55
00:05:17,563 --> 00:05:18,707
Actually, Your Highness and I...
56
00:05:18,731 --> 00:05:20,951
I had proof that the Crown Prince tried to kill his own sister,
57
00:05:20,975 --> 00:05:22,520
but Cui Jin Zhi destroyed it.
58
00:05:23,164 --> 00:05:24,740
Even though the evidence is gone,
59
00:05:24,915 --> 00:05:26,677
this can't just be ignored.
60
00:05:29,042 --> 00:05:30,600
I want to see His Majesty.
61
00:05:30,930 --> 00:05:33,093
If you accuse the Crown Prince with no proof,
62
00:05:33,375 --> 00:05:35,080
you'll end up taking the fall.
63
00:05:35,500 --> 00:05:37,302
We won't report the Crown Prince just yet.
64
00:05:37,642 --> 00:05:38,844
Are you trying to...
65
00:05:40,197 --> 00:05:41,399
I want...
66
00:05:43,833 --> 00:05:45,320
A divorce?
67
00:05:47,553 --> 00:05:49,429
Cui Jin Zhi has kept a mistress for years.
68
00:05:49,525 --> 00:05:52,088
He even let his mistress, Qing Luo, poison me.
69
00:05:53,083 --> 00:05:55,160
Besides feeling terrified and scared,
70
00:05:55,288 --> 00:05:58,000
I'm even furious because the Cui family ignored Father's dignity.
71
00:05:59,279 --> 00:06:01,880
I don't want to hide the divorce anymore.
72
00:06:02,193 --> 00:06:03,715
I hope you will grant my wish, Father.
73
00:06:06,411 --> 00:06:08,452
My oversight
74
00:06:08,652 --> 00:06:11,894
has let you suffer all these years.
75
00:06:13,583 --> 00:06:16,063
However, are you really insisting on making the divorce public
76
00:06:16,172 --> 00:06:18,730
because of his mistress
77
00:06:18,991 --> 00:06:20,193
or
78
00:06:21,722 --> 00:06:24,924
Are you doing it because you and the Crown Prince have a rift?
79
00:06:26,123 --> 00:06:27,800
This marriage with the Cui family
80
00:06:27,898 --> 00:06:29,660
is a dead end for you.
81
00:06:32,417 --> 00:06:33,920
Father, please judge wisely.
82
00:06:34,260 --> 00:06:35,582
What I ask for
83
00:06:35,695 --> 00:06:37,058
is first, for my own sake.
84
00:06:37,516 --> 00:06:38,633
Secondly,
85
00:06:38,714 --> 00:06:41,916
I believe a royal marriage is also a matter of state.
86
00:06:42,420 --> 00:06:45,200
The Cui family needs to be put in their place now.
87
00:06:51,000 --> 00:06:52,356
Deliver my command.
88
00:06:52,559 --> 00:06:55,768
Summon Duke Ning to the palace at once.
89
00:06:56,480 --> 00:06:57,682
Yes.
90
00:06:58,028 --> 00:06:59,230
I also hope
91
00:06:59,795 --> 00:07:02,156
that Father may let another person enter the palace.
92
00:07:03,856 --> 00:07:05,935
(Imperial Study)
93
00:07:12,120 --> 00:07:14,133
I granted you the Princess's hand in marriage.
94
00:07:14,625 --> 00:07:17,186
Is this how much you love and protect her?
95
00:07:17,779 --> 00:07:18,977
I am fearful.
96
00:07:19,096 --> 00:07:21,257
My loyalty to the Princess is clear.
97
00:07:21,797 --> 00:07:23,007
I only ask Your Majesty
98
00:07:23,255 --> 00:07:25,175
not to take the Princess's angry words to heart.
99
00:07:27,789 --> 00:07:29,148
Your Majesty, please judge wisely.
100
00:07:29,172 --> 00:07:31,800
Arguments are bound to happen for young couples.
101
00:07:31,969 --> 00:07:33,690
Heaven and earth can attest to
102
00:07:33,907 --> 00:07:35,827
how the Prince Consort has treated the Princess.
103
00:07:36,625 --> 00:07:39,021
Your Highness, even if you feel wronged,
104
00:07:39,214 --> 00:07:42,544
you shouldn't use divorce as a threat.
105
00:07:42,680 --> 00:07:44,011
A threat?
106
00:07:45,154 --> 00:07:48,528
Prince Consort Cui handed me a divorce letter on our wedding night.
107
00:07:54,132 --> 00:07:57,477
Your Majesty never made this matter public back then.
108
00:07:58,292 --> 00:08:00,694
I deeply regret it all these years.
109
00:08:00,958 --> 00:08:03,920
But the sun and moon can bear witness to my feelings for the Princess.
110
00:08:04,236 --> 00:08:07,160
The so-called mistress is completely made up.
111
00:08:07,358 --> 00:08:09,120
Every mistake is mine.
112
00:08:09,250 --> 00:08:11,371
I shouldn't have argued with the Princess.
113
00:08:12,652 --> 00:08:14,722
Your Highness, please don't throw a tantrum anymore.
114
00:08:14,746 --> 00:08:16,188
You've disturbed His Majesty.
115
00:08:19,132 --> 00:08:20,334
In that case,
116
00:08:20,625 --> 00:08:23,139
please summon the witness, Father.
117
00:08:26,308 --> 00:08:29,787
Summon Qing Luo to the hall!
118
00:08:59,504 --> 00:09:02,371
I, Qing Luo, a commoner, bow to Your Majesty.
119
00:09:02,460 --> 00:09:05,821
Are you really the Prince Consort's mistress?
120
00:09:07,625 --> 00:09:09,360
I wouldn't dare deceive Your Majesty.
121
00:09:09,662 --> 00:09:12,665
The Prince Consort has kept me privately for years.
122
00:09:13,499 --> 00:09:16,459
I can explain this, Your Majesty.
123
00:09:19,357 --> 00:09:20,577
Go on.
124
00:09:23,883 --> 00:09:25,965
The Prince Consort looked down on my humble birth.
125
00:09:26,125 --> 00:09:27,927
After learning I was pregnant,
126
00:09:28,169 --> 00:09:31,080
he accused me of tainting the noble bloodline.
127
00:09:31,530 --> 00:09:33,252
He abandoned me
128
00:09:33,458 --> 00:09:35,459
and even wanted to kill me.
129
00:09:39,332 --> 00:09:40,973
If Her Highness hadn't saved me,
130
00:09:41,460 --> 00:09:44,861
both my unborn child and I would've died long ago.
131
00:09:47,821 --> 00:09:49,023
Enough!
132
00:09:49,539 --> 00:09:51,220
Who let this crazy woman in?
133
00:09:51,331 --> 00:09:54,293
How dare you stand before His Majesty and slander the Prince Consort
134
00:09:54,422 --> 00:09:56,422
just to ruin the noble family's reputation?
135
00:09:59,441 --> 00:10:00,643
Your Majesty.
136
00:10:00,724 --> 00:10:02,887
This woman's background is unclear.
137
00:10:03,042 --> 00:10:04,442
She acts and speaks like a lunatic.
138
00:10:04,500 --> 00:10:05,736
She must not be trusted.
139
00:10:05,851 --> 00:10:07,976
She must be acting under someone's orders
140
00:10:08,073 --> 00:10:09,476
to frame the Prince Consort.
141
00:10:13,293 --> 00:10:15,132
Three inches below the Prince Consort's chest,
142
00:10:15,156 --> 00:10:17,480
there's a scar from martial arts training.
143
00:10:17,924 --> 00:10:19,720
I've served the Prince Consort for years.
144
00:10:19,953 --> 00:10:21,960
I know everything about him.
145
00:10:22,057 --> 00:10:23,460
I'm not making anything up.
146
00:10:24,989 --> 00:10:26,400
If Your Majesty doesn't believe me,
147
00:10:26,489 --> 00:10:28,132
I can explain everything in detail.
148
00:10:31,005 --> 00:10:32,885
- Your Majesty... - That's enough. Step back.
149
00:10:50,291 --> 00:10:51,640
Cui Jin Zhi.
150
00:10:52,052 --> 00:10:53,813
Do you have anything else to say?
151
00:11:01,236 --> 00:11:02,792
Your Majesty, calm down.
152
00:11:02,976 --> 00:11:04,120
I think
153
00:11:04,233 --> 00:11:06,471
Her Highness and Jin Zhi aren't truly husband and wife.
154
00:11:06,569 --> 00:11:08,930
It's reasonable for Jin Zhi to take a concubine.
155
00:11:09,083 --> 00:11:10,285
Besides,
156
00:11:10,407 --> 00:11:13,849
the Princess can't continue the Cui family bloodline.
157
00:11:14,134 --> 00:11:16,648
Jin Zhi sought to continue the family line,
158
00:11:16,842 --> 00:11:18,525
so he looked elsewhere.
159
00:11:18,878 --> 00:11:20,720
Though his methods weren't proper,
160
00:11:20,843 --> 00:11:23,769
his intentions may be understandable.
161
00:11:24,958 --> 00:11:27,400
This lowly maid has poor conduct.
162
00:11:27,591 --> 00:11:31,120
It's not unreasonable for the Prince Consort to deal with her himself.
163
00:11:31,323 --> 00:11:35,886
Family matters shouldn't be discussed here.
164
00:11:37,859 --> 00:11:39,622
What a convenient excuse.
165
00:11:41,196 --> 00:11:42,600
Are you saying
166
00:11:42,997 --> 00:11:44,479
that I, as the Princess,
167
00:11:44,613 --> 00:11:47,377
can also keep male companions to bear children
168
00:11:47,720 --> 00:11:49,238
and continue my lineage?
169
00:11:49,375 --> 00:11:50,532
Ridiculous!
170
00:11:50,710 --> 00:11:53,470
A man taking concubines is a tradition passed down from our ancestors.
171
00:11:53,494 --> 00:11:55,010
How could Your Highness
172
00:11:55,171 --> 00:11:57,294
ask such a rebellious and immoral question?
173
00:11:59,271 --> 00:12:01,032
The Prince Consort keeping a mistress
174
00:12:01,561 --> 00:12:03,198
is seen as perfectly normal,
175
00:12:03,279 --> 00:12:05,160
but if the Princess keeps male companions,
176
00:12:05,583 --> 00:12:07,625
she deserves a thousand deaths?
177
00:12:08,750 --> 00:12:09,952
You...
178
00:12:10,730 --> 00:12:13,249
Father, I have something to report.
179
00:12:26,551 --> 00:12:29,633
I want to accuse Zhao Yang and Shen Xiao of having an affair.
180
00:12:35,451 --> 00:12:38,263
An Le, stop talking nonsense.
181
00:12:38,500 --> 00:12:40,377
I saw it with my own eyes last night.
182
00:12:40,537 --> 00:12:42,869
Zhao Yang and Shen Xiao were hugging in the street.
183
00:12:43,071 --> 00:12:44,393
Their behavior was intimate.
184
00:12:44,649 --> 00:12:47,279
Father, you can find out whether I'm lying or not by investigating this.
185
00:12:47,303 --> 00:12:49,828
So, Your Highness insisted on getting a divorce
186
00:12:49,958 --> 00:12:51,959
because you were already having an affair.
187
00:13:01,983 --> 00:13:03,410
Zhao Yang and Shen Xiao are innocent.
188
00:13:03,434 --> 00:13:06,354
- Shen Xiao and I are not innocent. - They couldn't have had an affair.
189
00:13:14,079 --> 00:13:15,521
You don't need to cover for me.
190
00:13:16,127 --> 00:13:17,399
Shen Xiao and I had an affair.
191
00:13:17,480 --> 00:13:18,682
That's the truth.
192
00:13:19,500 --> 00:13:21,679
Your mistress used drugs to ruin my reputation,
193
00:13:22,059 --> 00:13:24,000
so Shen Xiao and I ended up alone together.
194
00:13:24,262 --> 00:13:25,942
Prince Consort Cui, you knew all about it.
195
00:13:28,914 --> 00:13:31,076
Zhao Yang had an affair with someone of humble birth.
196
00:13:31,238 --> 00:13:33,320
If this gets out,
197
00:13:33,640 --> 00:13:35,840
not only will it shame the Cui family,
198
00:13:36,265 --> 00:13:38,707
but also disgrace the royal family.
199
00:13:42,336 --> 00:13:43,872
(For generations, noble families)
200
00:13:43,978 --> 00:13:46,480
(care most about their reputation.)
201
00:13:46,611 --> 00:13:48,082
(Now that things have come to this, )
202
00:13:48,106 --> 00:13:51,080
(the Cui family won't insist on this marriage anymore.)
203
00:13:53,245 --> 00:13:54,447
Fine.
204
00:13:55,404 --> 00:13:57,081
Even if it was a setup,
205
00:13:57,252 --> 00:13:59,400
it's because you didn't behave yourself.
206
00:13:59,542 --> 00:14:01,018
That's why you gave others leverage.
207
00:14:01,146 --> 00:14:02,348
Your Majesty.
208
00:14:02,465 --> 00:14:04,182
The Cui family has always been upright.
209
00:14:04,304 --> 00:14:06,866
We won't allow a woman with such disgraceful conduct.
210
00:14:07,793 --> 00:14:09,721
- Zhao Yang just made a foolish mistake. - Enough!
211
00:14:09,745 --> 00:14:10,947
Your Majesty...
212
00:14:15,247 --> 00:14:16,449
Your Majesty.
213
00:14:17,188 --> 00:14:19,680
I request Your Majesty to issue your decree.
214
00:14:19,882 --> 00:14:22,924
Permit Princess Zhao Yang and Cui Jin Zhi
215
00:14:23,605 --> 00:14:25,167
to divorce immediately.
216
00:14:29,958 --> 00:14:31,440
In that case,
217
00:14:31,930 --> 00:14:35,053
this marriage is called off.
218
00:14:43,458 --> 00:14:44,660
However,
219
00:14:45,333 --> 00:14:47,480
though I allow you two to divorce,
220
00:14:47,634 --> 00:14:49,600
there must still be punishment as a warning.
221
00:14:49,839 --> 00:14:51,882
Zhao Yang's conduct is lacking.
222
00:14:51,995 --> 00:14:53,831
Reduce her fief by 3,000 households.
223
00:14:53,965 --> 00:14:56,000
Prince Consort Cui kept a mistress.
224
00:14:56,125 --> 00:14:58,000
He'll be fined half a year's salary.
225
00:14:58,130 --> 00:15:00,692
This matter ends here.
226
00:15:15,125 --> 00:15:17,567
You're cutting ties with me for this humble-born man?
227
00:15:19,500 --> 00:15:20,702
Li Shu!
228
00:15:22,411 --> 00:15:23,912
I can let go of what happened with Shen Xiao.
229
00:15:23,936 --> 00:15:26,058
I'll treat it as you just having a tantrum with me.
230
00:15:27,244 --> 00:15:29,280
Five days, ten days, or even a hundred days.
231
00:15:29,382 --> 00:15:30,902
I can wait for you.
232
00:15:31,213 --> 00:15:33,551
I'll wait until you've calmed down. All right?
233
00:15:33,664 --> 00:15:35,211
Cui Jin Zhi, wake up.
234
00:15:35,292 --> 00:15:36,812
The show is over.
235
00:15:39,375 --> 00:15:41,235
Lord Cui, please behave yourself.
236
00:15:42,806 --> 00:15:44,169
Since you've divorced,
237
00:15:44,352 --> 00:15:46,200
please don't bother the Princess anymore.
238
00:15:48,369 --> 00:15:51,049
A humble-born man who climbed up the ranks with the help of a woman
239
00:15:51,243 --> 00:15:53,044
has no right to lecture me.
240
00:15:56,818 --> 00:15:59,000
Li Shu, remember this.
241
00:16:00,395 --> 00:16:02,520
Only I can give you everything.
242
00:16:03,731 --> 00:16:06,600
And only I can destroy everything you have.
243
00:16:10,667 --> 00:16:13,068
You're really good at destroying people.
244
00:16:13,563 --> 00:16:15,244
But from now on,
245
00:16:15,566 --> 00:16:17,408
I won't play along anymore.
246
00:16:25,284 --> 00:16:26,486
One day,
247
00:16:27,043 --> 00:16:29,566
you'll come to me with nothing, begging for help.
248
00:16:41,098 --> 00:16:43,060
When I earn military honors next year,
249
00:16:44,398 --> 00:16:47,121
I'll ask His Majesty to grant us marriage.
250
00:16:47,917 --> 00:16:49,119
When that time comes,
251
00:16:49,252 --> 00:16:50,649
no one will be able to bully you.
252
00:16:50,789 --> 00:16:52,800
Not even the Crown Prince.
253
00:17:03,898 --> 00:17:05,259
The battlefield is dangerous.
254
00:17:05,380 --> 00:17:06,741
You really need to be careful.
255
00:17:07,972 --> 00:17:10,692
I'll definitely come back safe for you.
256
00:17:37,000 --> 00:17:38,477
What bad luck.
257
00:17:38,614 --> 00:17:41,040
She lost her fief and became Cui family's discarded wife,
258
00:17:41,676 --> 00:17:43,037
yet she's still so smug.
259
00:17:49,130 --> 00:17:50,487
(Princess An Le.)
260
00:17:53,000 --> 00:17:55,041
(Thanks for your help.)
261
00:17:57,138 --> 00:18:00,920
(I purposely set up a roadblock on Princess An Le's usual route.)
262
00:18:01,097 --> 00:18:02,498
Where has the detour taken us?
263
00:18:03,380 --> 00:18:05,142
(I led her past the Princess Residence, )
264
00:18:06,042 --> 00:18:07,560
(so she'd find out)
265
00:18:07,750 --> 00:18:09,590
(that I was involved with Princess Zhao Yang.)
266
00:18:12,792 --> 00:18:14,034
Zhao Yang?
267
00:18:14,220 --> 00:18:16,620
(If Her Highness wanted to break free from the Cui family, )
268
00:18:16,723 --> 00:18:18,363
(she still needed Princess An Le's help.)
269
00:18:18,542 --> 00:18:20,520
Why does that person look just like Shen Xiao?
270
00:19:04,125 --> 00:19:05,163
You lost your reputation
271
00:19:05,251 --> 00:19:06,680
and got scolded by His Majesty.
272
00:19:06,874 --> 00:19:08,556
How can you still laugh?
273
00:19:08,847 --> 00:19:10,930
We cut ties with the Eastern Palace. Of course, we're happy.
274
00:19:10,954 --> 00:19:12,156
That's right.
275
00:19:12,771 --> 00:19:16,400
But you said you're my sister's male companion.
276
00:19:16,980 --> 00:19:18,480
That's deceiving His Majesty.
277
00:19:22,113 --> 00:19:23,476
We didn't deceive His Majesty.
278
00:19:24,333 --> 00:19:26,134
I really am the Princess's male companion.
279
00:19:31,315 --> 00:19:32,353
Le Sheng,
280
00:19:32,484 --> 00:19:34,045
about this, I...
281
00:19:40,250 --> 00:19:41,452
Censor Shen,
282
00:19:42,333 --> 00:19:43,614
let's have a chat outside.
283
00:20:01,625 --> 00:20:02,868
Let's spar a bit.
284
00:20:04,859 --> 00:20:06,061
I'm still not healed.
285
00:20:10,875 --> 00:20:12,083
You're serious?
286
00:20:13,819 --> 00:20:15,056
I see you as a friend,
287
00:20:15,200 --> 00:20:16,882
but you wronged my sister.
288
00:20:18,010 --> 00:20:20,093
I wronged your sister?
289
00:20:24,759 --> 00:20:26,241
How far did it go?
290
00:20:31,500 --> 00:20:33,320
It started with feelings.
291
00:20:33,564 --> 00:20:35,641
Most of the time, it stayed proper.
292
00:20:35,779 --> 00:20:37,501
Most of the time?
293
00:20:43,379 --> 00:20:44,740
Stay away from her.
294
00:20:46,458 --> 00:20:48,259
I'm sincere about her.
295
00:20:50,500 --> 00:20:51,702
Really?
296
00:20:52,578 --> 00:20:53,780
Really.
297
00:20:54,611 --> 00:20:56,134
But your sister
298
00:20:57,164 --> 00:20:58,281
has always treated me
299
00:20:58,375 --> 00:21:00,800
like a male companion she could summon or dismiss at will.
300
00:21:01,867 --> 00:21:04,880
She was the one who gave me the gold and jewelry last time.
301
00:21:11,874 --> 00:21:13,076
That's good.
302
00:21:14,193 --> 00:21:16,960
You're lucky to catch my sister's eye.
303
00:21:18,847 --> 00:21:21,920
Your Highness, do you mean I'm just supposed to be played with?
304
00:21:23,087 --> 00:21:25,520
Since going from the Cold Palace to where she's at today,
305
00:21:25,744 --> 00:21:28,520
money is what my sister values most, besides her life.
306
00:21:28,757 --> 00:21:31,477
She has never spent so much on personal matters.
307
00:21:32,459 --> 00:21:34,818
These are your reward.
308
00:21:35,700 --> 00:21:38,580
She goes to Xianke Bordello because she manages it for the Crown Prince.
309
00:21:38,853 --> 00:21:40,693
Do you really think she's reckless with money?
310
00:21:46,456 --> 00:21:48,057
Are you saying
311
00:21:49,231 --> 00:21:50,832
that she actually likes me too?
312
00:21:57,571 --> 00:22:00,600
From now on, you'll be my brother-in-law.
313
00:22:00,730 --> 00:22:01,932
How do you feel about that?
314
00:22:04,524 --> 00:22:06,960
If I see you coming out of my sister's room again,
315
00:22:07,083 --> 00:22:08,365
I'll break your legs.
316
00:22:22,840 --> 00:22:24,247
He knows everything now?
317
00:22:24,855 --> 00:22:26,097
So, who won?
318
00:22:27,417 --> 00:22:28,958
Of course, I let him win.
319
00:22:29,500 --> 00:22:30,750
I still need him
320
00:22:30,869 --> 00:22:33,160
to put in a good word for me with Your Highness.
321
00:22:34,332 --> 00:22:35,760
What good word?
322
00:22:38,642 --> 00:22:40,124
I need him to help me
323
00:22:40,868 --> 00:22:42,287
get a proper status.
324
00:22:44,583 --> 00:22:46,520
What's so important about status?
325
00:22:46,895 --> 00:22:48,937
I just escaped from all that empty fame.
326
00:22:49,675 --> 00:22:53,109
In this world, only real gold and silver matter.
327
00:22:53,417 --> 00:22:56,814
Why don't I give you a mansion with eight courtyards tomorrow
328
00:22:56,934 --> 00:22:58,611
with 200 servants?
329
00:22:58,821 --> 00:23:00,783
How's that? Sound good?
330
00:23:02,661 --> 00:23:05,061
(Since going from the Cold Palace to where she's at today, )
331
00:23:05,116 --> 00:23:07,876
(money is what my sister values most, besides her life.)
332
00:23:12,307 --> 00:23:15,480
Then, I thank Your Highness for this generous gift.
333
00:23:35,323 --> 00:23:37,160
When I picked a Top Scholar
334
00:23:37,396 --> 00:23:39,317
from a humble family,
335
00:23:40,049 --> 00:23:41,850
I asked your opinion.
336
00:23:42,547 --> 00:23:43,880
Back then,
337
00:23:44,000 --> 00:23:45,717
you recommended Shen Xiao first.
338
00:23:45,875 --> 00:23:49,077
So, you two already knew each other.
339
00:23:50,835 --> 00:23:52,037
Zhao Yang,
340
00:23:52,667 --> 00:23:56,309
were you acting out of personal interest?
341
00:23:58,764 --> 00:24:00,040
I didn't.
342
00:24:00,458 --> 00:24:02,180
I wouldn't dare deceive you, Father.
343
00:24:02,569 --> 00:24:05,967
Shen Xiao is just one of my many retainers.
344
00:24:06,154 --> 00:24:07,876
I've never paid him special attention.
345
00:24:08,523 --> 00:24:10,440
When I first saw Shen Xiao's essay,
346
00:24:10,531 --> 00:24:13,132
it criticized current issues and showed real insight.
347
00:24:13,401 --> 00:24:15,450
I value talent for the Ye Dynasty and you, Father.
348
00:24:15,548 --> 00:24:16,761
That was why I recommended him.
349
00:24:16,785 --> 00:24:18,106
There was no personal motive.
350
00:24:18,279 --> 00:24:20,640
I wouldn't dare use Shen Xiao to meddle in politics.
351
00:24:21,792 --> 00:24:23,234
I hope you see my sincerity, Father.
352
00:24:24,292 --> 00:24:25,640
The floor is cold.
353
00:24:25,805 --> 00:24:27,007
Get up.
354
00:24:30,468 --> 00:24:31,670
Thank you, Father.
355
00:24:39,220 --> 00:24:42,341
As long as you and Shen Xiao have no ulterior motives.
356
00:24:49,332 --> 00:24:50,800
I've heard
357
00:24:52,232 --> 00:24:56,274
Jin Cheng from Prince Qi's family is still unmarried.
358
00:24:57,875 --> 00:24:59,397
As her cousin,
359
00:24:59,972 --> 00:25:01,932
you should keep an eye out for potential suitors.
360
00:25:03,289 --> 00:25:06,930
Jin Cheng is indeed old enough to be looking for a husband.
361
00:25:07,333 --> 00:25:08,656
I'm not very clever.
362
00:25:08,927 --> 00:25:12,087
I wonder if you have someone in your mind for her marriage, Father.
363
00:25:13,750 --> 00:25:14,952
I think
364
00:25:16,917 --> 00:25:18,718
Shen Xiao would be a good choice.
