00:01:59,190 --> 00:02:02,180
=Episode 31=
20
00:02:28,070 --> 00:02:29,460
(Even if it's only one night,)
21
00:02:30,470 --> 00:02:32,400
(as long as she can relax.)
22
00:02:59,450 --> 00:03:02,170
This is the first time
I have seen you so happy, Miss Dong.
23
00:03:02,470 --> 00:03:03,730
Any good news?
24
00:03:05,510 --> 00:03:06,620
No joy or worry.
25
00:03:06,880 --> 00:03:07,880
This moment is the best.
26
00:03:07,940 --> 00:03:09,620
Fragrant sachet!
Fragrant sachet for sale!
27
00:03:10,560 --> 00:03:11,410
Come and have a look.
28
00:03:21,290 --> 00:03:22,600
Anything troubles you, Mr. Cui?
29
00:03:23,660 --> 00:03:25,100
I'm simply overwhelmed
30
00:03:25,790 --> 00:03:26,660
by the idea
31
00:03:26,660 --> 00:03:27,690
of predestined fate.
32
00:03:28,660 --> 00:03:29,690
An encounter as brief
33
00:03:30,070 --> 00:03:31,510
as clouds scattering.
34
00:03:32,290 --> 00:03:33,730
A like-minded friend is hard to come by.
35
00:03:35,190 --> 00:03:37,100
Am I not that friend?
36
00:03:40,250 --> 00:03:41,070
Miss Dong.
37
00:03:42,470 --> 00:03:43,230
Well.
38
00:03:43,440 --> 00:03:44,780
I only understand your paintings
39
00:03:44,780 --> 00:03:46,040
but not your thoughts.
40
00:03:47,730 --> 00:03:50,290
I never expected the gentle Miss Dong
41
00:03:50,560 --> 00:03:52,250
to have a playful side.
42
00:03:53,130 --> 00:03:54,620
Mr. Cui, you have discerning eyes.
43
00:03:54,660 --> 00:03:56,220
Not anyone can notice that.
44
00:03:58,470 --> 00:03:59,560
Great time flies.
45
00:03:59,600 --> 00:04:00,880
Let's continue to stroll.
46
00:04:04,280 --> 00:04:05,260
Have a nice day.
47
00:04:31,560 --> 00:04:32,730
You are here, Your Lordship.
48
00:04:36,350 --> 00:04:38,520
Are you alone again today?
49
00:04:43,290 --> 00:04:44,290
Soon.
50
00:04:46,870 --> 00:04:48,280
Please wait a moment, Your Lordship.
51
00:04:56,600 --> 00:04:57,600
Soon.
52
00:05:01,430 --> 00:05:02,430
Very soon.
53
00:05:04,630 --> 00:05:05,520
Mister and Miss,
54
00:05:05,700 --> 00:05:06,580
come and have a look
55
00:05:06,860 --> 00:05:08,360
to see if there's anything you like.
56
00:05:09,810 --> 00:05:10,870
Is there anything you fancy?
57
00:05:17,140 --> 00:05:17,700
Miss,
58
00:05:17,730 --> 00:05:19,500
is there anything
that catches your attention?
59
00:05:21,200 --> 00:05:22,170
Clay cat?
60
00:05:23,780 --> 00:05:24,430
Mister,
61
00:05:24,870 --> 00:05:26,220
how did you know about this?
62
00:05:27,730 --> 00:05:29,100
I couldn't remember.
63
00:05:29,100 --> 00:05:31,100
Perhaps I learned it somewhere.
64
00:05:33,110 --> 00:05:34,810
This looks quite similar to yours.
65
00:05:35,600 --> 00:05:36,200
Mister,
66
00:05:36,310 --> 00:05:37,230
I want this.
67
00:05:37,400 --> 00:05:38,080
All right.
68
00:05:39,800 --> 00:05:40,310
Here you go.
69
00:05:41,140 --> 00:05:42,040
No. Please, no.
70
00:05:42,040 --> 00:05:42,810
This is too much.
71
00:05:42,810 --> 00:05:43,610
Just take it.
72
00:05:44,260 --> 00:05:45,400
You deserve this.
73
00:05:46,470 --> 00:05:47,470
Thank you, mister.
74
00:05:49,470 --> 00:05:50,960
I will repay you the money later.
75
00:05:52,200 --> 00:05:52,810
No need.
76
00:05:53,060 --> 00:05:53,780
It's a gift for you.
77
00:05:55,430 --> 00:05:57,350
Anyway, you owed me something.
78
00:05:57,580 --> 00:05:59,409
I also wanted the clay cat back then.
79
00:05:59,960 --> 00:06:00,670
We are even now.
80
00:06:03,350 --> 00:06:04,610
What else do you want?
81
00:06:04,720 --> 00:06:05,910
I can buy it for you.
82
00:06:06,610 --> 00:06:08,470
Commander Wei,
why have you become so generous?
83
00:06:09,960 --> 00:06:11,260
It's far from getting even.
84
00:06:11,760 --> 00:06:13,850
Candied hawthorn for sale!
85
00:06:14,020 --> 00:06:15,280
Have a look.
86
00:06:16,220 --> 00:06:17,350
I want candied hawthorn.
87
00:06:17,810 --> 00:06:19,730
Candied hawthorn for sale!
88
00:06:20,700 --> 00:06:21,200
Sure.
89
00:06:21,310 --> 00:06:22,400
I will buy one for you.
90
00:06:22,520 --> 00:06:23,550
Wait here.
91
00:06:47,990 --> 00:06:48,840
Are you closing?
92
00:06:49,110 --> 00:06:49,780
Yes.
93
00:06:50,170 --> 00:06:52,610
This is the best noodle store
in Qingkang.
94
00:06:52,780 --> 00:06:53,550
It seems
95
00:06:53,720 --> 00:06:55,930
you have to miss out on it.
96
00:06:56,170 --> 00:06:58,020
We will come next time.
97
00:06:58,290 --> 00:06:58,990
Anyway,
98
00:06:59,640 --> 00:07:00,840
there's always a chance.
99
00:07:01,930 --> 00:07:02,460
Mister,
100
00:07:02,520 --> 00:07:04,140
I will take her with me
101
00:07:04,220 --> 00:07:05,720
to eat your mutton noodles next time.
102
00:07:06,160 --> 00:07:06,780
Sure.
103
00:07:06,870 --> 00:07:08,180
I will wait for you every day.
104
00:07:13,050 --> 00:07:13,960
When next spring comes,
105
00:07:14,000 --> 00:07:16,340
these scholars will have to attend
the imperial examination.
106
00:07:18,120 --> 00:07:19,720
Once they make it to the honor roll,
107
00:07:19,730 --> 00:07:21,340
they'll be able
to realize their ambitions,
108
00:07:21,340 --> 00:07:22,580
bring honor to their families,
109
00:07:22,630 --> 00:07:24,010
and marry ladies from noble families.
110
00:07:26,170 --> 00:07:27,610
Mr. Cui, you are full of talent.
111
00:07:27,670 --> 00:07:29,690
Have you considered
becoming an official?
112
00:07:30,140 --> 00:07:31,490
To me, civil service
113
00:07:31,900 --> 00:07:33,580
means being bound by shackles.
114
00:07:34,110 --> 00:07:36,230
It's more carefree to travel
115
00:07:36,230 --> 00:07:37,610
among famous mountains and rivers.
116
00:07:41,140 --> 00:07:42,900
Mr. Cui, you should've
set up a stall tonight.
117
00:07:42,950 --> 00:07:45,050
You'll get to sell
a lot of calligraphy and paintings.
118
00:07:45,340 --> 00:07:45,900
You are right.
119
00:07:46,120 --> 00:07:47,940
There are acrobatics performances
on the left
120
00:07:48,050 --> 00:07:49,290
and snack stalls on the right.
121
00:07:50,440 --> 00:07:51,350
However, there may be
122
00:07:51,380 --> 00:07:53,060
some people
who can't get through the crowd
123
00:07:53,060 --> 00:07:54,540
to see my calligraphy and paintings.
124
00:07:55,140 --> 00:07:55,900
Then forget it.
125
00:07:56,010 --> 00:07:57,340
I might be squeezed out of the crowd
126
00:07:57,520 --> 00:07:59,050
when you become famous.
127
00:07:59,400 --> 00:08:00,670
Miss, you never have to do that.
128
00:08:05,850 --> 00:08:06,670
Miss Dong,
129
00:08:07,230 --> 00:08:09,220
you have some insights
into nature landscapes.
130
00:08:10,020 --> 00:08:10,840
I wonder
131
00:08:11,610 --> 00:08:13,400
if I'm fortunate enough
to travel with you.
132
00:08:20,050 --> 00:08:21,120
Mr. Cui, do you mean
133
00:08:21,500 --> 00:08:22,400
leaving Qingkang?
134
00:08:32,429 --> 00:08:33,000
Your Lordship?
135
00:08:40,640 --> 00:08:41,780
Why are you here together?
136
00:08:42,789 --> 00:08:44,430
Do you know Miss Dong, too?
137
00:08:45,790 --> 00:08:46,790
We met once before.
138
00:08:47,290 --> 00:08:47,790
Right?
139
00:08:49,160 --> 00:08:49,790
Right.
140
00:08:51,290 --> 00:08:53,240
Miss Dong is the daughter
of my mom's friend.
141
00:08:53,760 --> 00:08:54,740
We met once before.
142
00:08:56,910 --> 00:08:58,670
Mr. Cui, how do you know His Lordship?
143
00:08:59,760 --> 00:09:01,310
I'm a protege of His Lordship.
144
00:09:02,090 --> 00:09:04,240
I'm lucky to have received
his appreciation and help.
145
00:09:07,050 --> 00:09:07,860
I see.
146
00:09:10,790 --> 00:09:11,980
This lantern...
147
00:09:11,980 --> 00:09:13,170
I gave it to Miss Dong.
148
00:09:15,810 --> 00:09:17,000
It suits her very much.
149
00:09:18,190 --> 00:09:18,790
Please continue.
150
00:09:19,120 --> 00:09:19,980
I will take my leave.
151
00:09:20,120 --> 00:09:23,290
Since both of you are acquainted,
152
00:09:23,860 --> 00:09:25,410
why don't you join us, Your Lordship?
153
00:09:40,380 --> 00:09:42,550
It has been quite a while
since I try their food.
154
00:09:42,710 --> 00:09:44,050
Let's try it this time.
155
00:09:54,440 --> 00:09:55,310
Where are you going?
156
00:09:56,290 --> 00:09:57,000
Let go.
157
00:09:57,430 --> 00:09:58,550
I want to go find my master.
158
00:09:59,550 --> 00:10:01,550
His Majesty has already learned
of your identity.
159
00:10:01,880 --> 00:10:03,430
You are giving him the opportunity.
160
00:10:03,880 --> 00:10:05,000
I can stay here,
161
00:10:05,240 --> 00:10:06,740
but my master can't be trapped here.
162
00:10:07,740 --> 00:10:09,620
Qingkang is not safe at all
for the time being.
163
00:10:09,670 --> 00:10:11,760
Staying in the Guangming Bureau
is the best option.
164
00:10:12,290 --> 00:10:13,430
That sounds caring,
165
00:10:13,860 --> 00:10:15,550
but you keep her here
for your own purpose.
166
00:10:16,160 --> 00:10:16,670
Yes.
167
00:10:17,210 --> 00:10:18,980
As long as the old case
hasn't been resolved,
168
00:10:19,050 --> 00:10:20,310
she can't leave.
169
00:10:20,520 --> 00:10:22,240
Even if she gets
out of Guangming Bureau,
170
00:10:22,620 --> 00:10:24,550
she will step into a bigger danger.
171
00:10:24,760 --> 00:10:25,590
Do you wish to live
172
00:10:25,590 --> 00:10:27,500
on the run?
173
00:10:34,430 --> 00:10:35,530
It will only become riskier
174
00:10:35,790 --> 00:10:37,000
and more complicated
175
00:10:37,240 --> 00:10:38,240
if you two meet.
176
00:10:39,860 --> 00:10:40,740
I promise you
177
00:10:41,410 --> 00:10:42,910
I will put all of this to an end.
178
00:11:04,790 --> 00:11:05,620
Ci?
179
00:11:06,430 --> 00:11:07,480
Cui.
180
00:11:11,400 --> 00:11:12,710
Our last farewell was in Nanling.
181
00:11:12,790 --> 00:11:14,000
Have you been faring well, Ci?
182
00:11:16,860 --> 00:11:18,360
Thank you for your concern, Cui.
183
00:11:23,430 --> 00:11:24,540
Greetings, Your Lordship.
184
00:11:27,430 --> 00:11:28,590
Are you
185
00:11:28,690 --> 00:11:30,240
the second daughter
of the Prime Minister?
186
00:11:30,240 --> 00:11:30,860
Yes, I am.
187
00:11:35,620 --> 00:11:36,500
We are good friends.
188
00:11:38,290 --> 00:11:39,090
Nice to meet you.
189
00:11:39,190 --> 00:11:40,090
I'm Jiang Ci.
190
00:11:40,760 --> 00:11:41,990
Nice to meet you, Miss Jiang.
191
00:11:45,030 --> 00:11:46,480
It's rare for us to get together.
192
00:11:46,620 --> 00:11:48,170
Why don't we gather at Lanyue Parlor?
193
00:12:13,000 --> 00:12:14,620
I never expected to see you again
194
00:12:15,410 --> 00:12:16,620
after that happened, Ci.
195
00:12:20,380 --> 00:12:21,040
Ci,
196
00:12:22,000 --> 00:12:23,170
even if you feel cornered,
197
00:12:23,770 --> 00:12:25,190
do remain composed and collected.
198
00:12:27,760 --> 00:12:28,670
Thank you, Cui.
199
00:12:29,620 --> 00:12:30,930
No matter what has happened,
200
00:12:31,620 --> 00:12:32,760
we are still good friends.
201
00:12:36,240 --> 00:12:36,980
Cui,
202
00:12:37,540 --> 00:12:38,810
would you mind introducing her?
203
00:12:39,170 --> 00:12:40,120
This is Miss Dong.
204
00:12:40,590 --> 00:12:41,930
I met her through paintings.
205
00:12:45,740 --> 00:12:47,170
Cui is a good painter.
206
00:12:47,540 --> 00:12:49,860
I believe you are talented, too,
Miss Dong.
207
00:12:50,670 --> 00:12:52,430
Miss Jiang, you are insightful
208
00:12:52,540 --> 00:12:53,480
and virtuous.
209
00:12:55,350 --> 00:12:56,820
We shall have a drink for our meeting
210
00:12:56,980 --> 00:12:58,120
and enjoy a good chat.
211
00:12:58,740 --> 00:13:00,380
Tonight is a rare opportunity for us.
212
00:13:00,790 --> 00:13:01,740
I will give you a toast.
213
00:13:12,190 --> 00:13:13,900
Ci, how did you
get out of the palace tonight?
214
00:13:18,410 --> 00:13:19,790
Are you from the palace, Miss Jiang?
215
00:13:20,380 --> 00:13:21,980
Miss Dong,
you may not know about this.
216
00:13:22,290 --> 00:13:24,790
Ci is soon receiving the princess title.
217
00:13:26,780 --> 00:13:28,310
Ci, your status is noble now.
218
00:13:28,520 --> 00:13:29,310
It's too dangerous
219
00:13:30,060 --> 00:13:31,290
to leave the palace recklessly.
220
00:13:33,660 --> 00:13:34,910
I brought her out.
221
00:13:36,930 --> 00:13:38,410
Sanlang, you know her identity.
222
00:13:39,270 --> 00:13:41,700
All the more reason you should
follow the rules as subordinates.
223
00:13:42,660 --> 00:13:43,790
In front of Her Highness,
224
00:13:44,070 --> 00:13:45,190
we both are subordinates.
225
00:13:46,190 --> 00:13:47,550
You have overstepped the line
226
00:13:47,880 --> 00:13:50,090
when you criticized Her Highness.
227
00:14:14,900 --> 00:14:15,710
Please continue.
228
00:14:16,060 --> 00:14:17,040
Thank you, Miss Jiang.
229
00:14:17,670 --> 00:14:18,290
Cui.
230
00:14:19,050 --> 00:14:19,930
Thank you, Ci.
231
00:14:26,430 --> 00:14:28,830
I know you like
the bustling marketplace.
232
00:14:29,710 --> 00:14:31,090
You can inform me next time.
233
00:14:31,750 --> 00:14:33,410
I will request permission
from His Majesty
234
00:14:33,510 --> 00:14:34,840
to take you out for some fun.
235
00:14:36,430 --> 00:14:37,780
I appreciate that, Lord Pei.
236
00:14:38,170 --> 00:14:39,190
But there are only
237
00:14:39,790 --> 00:14:41,540
disappointing things and people
238
00:14:42,290 --> 00:14:43,170
when I'm out here.
239
00:14:46,290 --> 00:14:48,040
I didn't know
you were a princess, Miss Jiang.
240
00:14:48,500 --> 00:14:49,640
The past is unchangeable,
241
00:14:49,670 --> 00:14:50,870
and the future is unpredictable.
242
00:14:51,070 --> 00:14:52,280
Let's live in the present
243
00:14:52,590 --> 00:14:53,660
and enjoy this moment.
244
00:14:54,430 --> 00:14:54,980
Miss Jiang,
245
00:14:55,060 --> 00:14:55,830
I will drink to you.
246
00:14:57,290 --> 00:14:59,190
I didn't belong to the palace
in the first place.
247
00:15:06,670 --> 00:15:07,430
Love, hatred,
248
00:15:07,810 --> 00:15:08,570
gain, loss,
249
00:15:09,070 --> 00:15:09,860
grace, and grudges
250
00:15:10,760 --> 00:15:12,330
are all willed by fate.
251
00:15:12,460 --> 00:15:14,970
Follow the natural course
of where it leads us isn't a bad thing.
252
00:15:16,400 --> 00:15:18,470
What I fear is
when losing something after gaining it,
253
00:15:19,550 --> 00:15:20,590
when love turns into hatred,
254
00:15:20,890 --> 00:15:22,390
and when grace and grudges intertwine.
255
00:15:40,310 --> 00:15:41,140
How beautiful.
256
00:15:42,430 --> 00:15:43,910
Destiny is like fireworks.
257
00:15:44,310 --> 00:15:45,290
We are sparks
258
00:15:45,790 --> 00:15:47,190
that collide with each other.
259
00:15:48,550 --> 00:15:49,660
At best, we bloom splendidly.
260
00:15:49,750 --> 00:15:51,370
At worst, we vanish
like a puff of smoke.
261
00:15:54,310 --> 00:15:55,550
You are right, Miss Dong.
262
00:15:56,430 --> 00:15:58,050
Obstacles are nothing to fear.
263
00:15:58,790 --> 00:16:00,020
We shall drink and sing freely
264
00:16:00,290 --> 00:16:01,310
when life is short.
265
00:16:02,520 --> 00:16:03,140
Cheers.
266
00:16:09,190 --> 00:16:09,760
Tonight,
267
00:16:09,910 --> 00:16:10,910
let's forget everything.
268
00:16:11,280 --> 00:16:11,890
Cheers.
269
00:16:20,890 --> 00:16:22,150
Let's forget about superiority
270
00:16:23,930 --> 00:16:24,690
and hierarchy.
271
00:16:28,780 --> 00:16:29,780
Let's forget about stances
272
00:16:30,910 --> 00:16:31,830
and grudges.
273
00:16:52,940 --> 00:16:56,020
Are you Minister Dong's daughter
at the birthday banquet that day?
274
00:16:57,290 --> 00:16:58,810
Thank you for not exposing me just now.
275
00:16:59,960 --> 00:17:01,310
Do you have feelings for Ziming?
276
00:17:02,950 --> 00:17:04,280
Everything has a beginning,
277
00:17:04,599 --> 00:17:05,890
but few can see the desired ending.
278
00:17:06,859 --> 00:17:08,540
As long as you have feelings
for each other,
279
00:17:08,730 --> 00:17:10,740
there's no need
to be constrained by social status.
280
00:17:11,079 --> 00:17:12,890
People of different statuses
are incompatible.
281
00:17:13,550 --> 00:17:14,940
Even if I hate to admit it,
282
00:17:15,680 --> 00:17:17,680
still, such a mindset
is beyond my control.
283
00:17:27,720 --> 00:17:29,850
Miss Jiang, do you have someone
you hold dear?
284
00:17:31,590 --> 00:17:32,540
It's all the past.
285
00:17:38,460 --> 00:17:39,040
By the way,
286
00:17:39,440 --> 00:17:41,130
why did you suddenly become a princess
287
00:17:41,200 --> 00:17:42,180
from a maid?
288
00:17:42,700 --> 00:17:44,700
I only found out my identity recently.
289
00:17:45,480 --> 00:17:46,460
Everything changed
290
00:17:46,680 --> 00:17:47,700
overnight.
291
00:17:48,440 --> 00:17:50,680
Honestly, I haven't had a good sleep
in the palace.
292
00:17:51,440 --> 00:17:53,650
I always think I'm alone.
293
00:17:54,290 --> 00:17:55,810
Meeting you today
294
00:17:56,250 --> 00:17:57,760
has brought peace to my restless mind.
295
00:17:59,390 --> 00:18:01,090
How wondrous it is
when we meet and imbibe.
296
00:18:08,480 --> 00:18:10,650
If you weren't
the prime minister's daughter,
297
00:18:11,420 --> 00:18:12,680
what would you do the most?
298
00:18:15,260 --> 00:18:16,260
I would like to read
299
00:18:16,680 --> 00:18:17,570
and travel
300
00:18:18,180 --> 00:18:19,570
and not be confined to a boudoir.
301
00:18:20,280 --> 00:18:21,150
I want to be free.
302
00:18:23,390 --> 00:18:25,420
I also want to explore every corner
303
00:18:25,580 --> 00:18:27,660
and try all the delicious food
in this beautiful world.
304
00:18:27,720 --> 00:18:29,200
But I don't want to read.
305
00:18:30,890 --> 00:18:32,040
Well, I'd also like to find
306
00:18:32,660 --> 00:18:34,120
someone who truly understands me
307
00:18:34,170 --> 00:18:35,510
so that I can have wonderful times
308
00:18:35,540 --> 00:18:36,440
and admire great views.
309
00:18:36,790 --> 00:18:38,960
I also want to travel with my beloved
310
00:18:39,310 --> 00:18:40,890
through lush mountains
311
00:18:41,220 --> 00:18:42,760
and long rivers.
312
00:18:43,260 --> 00:18:43,960
Miss Dong,
313
00:18:44,260 --> 00:18:45,700
your dream will surely come true.
314
00:18:46,650 --> 00:18:47,200
Miss Jiang,
315
00:18:47,570 --> 00:18:48,590

(Changle Hall, Eastern Palace,

331
00:20:03,480 --> 00:20:04,150
Shaojun.
332
00:20:04,390 --> 00:20:05,070
Your Highness.
333
00:20:07,260 --> 00:20:09,050
You are generous and supportive
334
00:20:09,310 --> 00:20:11,050
that you hold this flower banquet
335
00:20:11,050 --> 00:20:12,760
to celebrate
Princess Yong'an's conferment.
336
00:20:13,920 --> 00:20:14,780
You are thoughtful.
337
00:20:15,780 --> 00:20:16,310
Shaojun,
338
00:20:16,810 --> 00:20:19,390
I heard you requested Father
for a marriage decree with Yong'an.
339
00:20:20,070 --> 00:20:20,960
You can't do this
340
00:20:20,960 --> 00:20:22,220
to the Dong's Residence.
341
00:20:24,100 --> 00:20:25,510
Please forgive me, Your Highness.
342
00:20:26,200 --> 00:20:27,720
There's someone I hold dear,
343
00:20:27,980 --> 00:20:29,480
and I have already told my mother
344
00:20:29,870 --> 00:20:30,810
about my feelings.
345
00:20:32,220 --> 00:20:34,290
Your mother made this decision
for your own good.
346
00:20:34,790 --> 00:20:35,310
Besides,
347
00:20:35,890 --> 00:20:38,150
if Dong's Residence is humiliated
due to this,
348
00:20:38,370 --> 00:20:39,550
how will you resolve it?
349
00:20:39,610 --> 00:20:40,650
Rest assured, Your Highness.
350
00:20:41,290 --> 00:20:43,050
I have made proper arrangements.
351
00:20:43,210 --> 00:20:45,020
It won't hurt the reputation
of Dong's Residence
352
00:20:45,130 --> 00:20:46,680
and Miss Dong.
353
00:20:47,720 --> 00:20:49,130
As long as you have thought about it.
354
00:20:49,390 --> 00:20:50,370
It's a shame.
355
00:20:50,590 --> 00:20:53,040
I have always wanted you
to be my brother-in-law.
356
00:20:54,370 --> 00:20:55,590
I'm deeply sorry
357
00:20:56,090 --> 00:20:57,310
for letting you worry.
358
00:20:58,680 --> 00:21:00,330
Princess Yong'an is your cousin,
359
00:21:00,550 --> 00:21:02,550
and I have always been close to you.
360
00:21:03,130 --> 00:21:05,540
This change won't diminish
my loyalty to you.
361
00:21:07,680 --> 00:21:08,760
I will take your word
362
00:21:09,020 --> 00:21:09,890
for it, Shaojun.
363
00:21:11,590 --> 00:21:12,180
Your Highness,
364
00:21:12,870 --> 00:21:13,810
His Majesty
365
00:21:13,980 --> 00:21:15,680
hasn't made the decision yet.
366
00:21:16,180 --> 00:21:16,980
I hope
367
00:21:17,830 --> 00:21:18,790
you will keep it secret.
368
00:21:19,460 --> 00:21:20,330
Don't worry, Shaojun.
369
00:21:20,720 --> 00:21:21,680
You should hold a banquet
370
00:21:21,890 --> 00:21:23,680
to inform everyone
of such great news.
371
00:21:24,040 --> 00:21:25,940
I would like to drink a lot
at your wedding.
372
00:21:27,980 --> 00:21:29,570
Your wish will come true soon.
373
00:21:29,680 --> 00:21:30,870
My cousin who has entered
374
00:21:30,870 --> 00:21:32,830
the palace may soon leave.
375
00:21:34,260 --> 00:21:35,280
Sanlang, you have arrived.
376
00:21:37,160 --> 00:21:37,790
Your Highness.
377
00:21:37,860 --> 00:21:38,890
You may take your seat.
378
00:21:39,650 --> 00:21:40,680
Sanlang, Shaojun,
379
00:21:41,180 --> 00:21:41,700
let's go.
380
00:21:59,220 --> 00:22:00,650
Greetings,
381
00:22:00,720 --> 00:22:01,370
Your Highnesses.
382
00:22:01,780 --> 00:22:03,540
Young'an, you are beautiful
383
00:22:03,570 --> 00:22:04,480
and elegant.
384
00:22:05,200 --> 00:22:05,940
Please be seated.
385
00:22:11,440 --> 00:22:12,740
Today, the Eastern Palace gathers
386
00:22:12,740 --> 00:22:14,390
all the great people here
387
00:22:14,620 --> 00:22:16,130
to celebrate the joy with Sanguan and me
388
00:22:16,150 --> 00:22:18,380
for welcoming back my cousin,
who loves flowers and plants,
389
00:22:18,680 --> 00:22:19,330
Yong'an,
390
00:22:19,650 --> 00:22:20,480
welcome home.
391
00:22:20,760 --> 00:22:22,440
Thank you for your kindness,
Your Highness.
392
00:22:22,780 --> 00:22:24,520
As for a flower banquet,
393
00:22:24,780 --> 00:22:26,280
we should be composing poems of flowers
394
00:22:26,390 --> 00:22:27,700
after the banquet.
395
00:22:28,500 --> 00:22:29,220
How about this?
396
00:22:29,960 --> 00:22:31,040
Sanlang, Shaojun,
397
00:22:31,220 --> 00:22:32,680
Sanguan, and I will compose poems,
398
00:22:32,680 --> 00:22:35,110
while Yong'an and my sister-in-law
will choose the correct flowers.
399
00:22:35,110 --> 00:22:36,100
What do you think?
400
00:22:40,440 --> 00:22:43,000
I already knew Yong'an was good
at recognizing flowers.
401
00:22:43,180 --> 00:22:43,740
So this time,
402
00:22:43,740 --> 00:22:45,610
I will be the audience.
403
00:22:46,650 --> 00:22:47,830
Are you running out of ideas
404
00:22:47,830 --> 00:22:49,140
when it comes to composing poems?
405
00:22:49,440 --> 00:22:51,180
Che, don't expose me.
406
00:22:51,650 --> 00:22:52,960
As people say, charming talents.
407
00:22:52,980 --> 00:22:54,180
You'll play the talent part,
408
00:22:54,220 --> 00:22:56,310
and I will admire the charming beauty
picking flowers.
409
00:22:57,540 --> 00:22:58,390
Behave.
410
00:23:00,380 --> 00:23:02,630
Thank you for your appreciation,
Your Highness.
411
00:23:02,710 --> 00:23:04,760
I can choose the flowers
to match your poems alone.
412
00:23:05,350 --> 00:23:06,280
Miss Dong,
413
00:23:06,500 --> 00:23:08,000
you may join them in composing poems.
414
00:23:09,180 --> 00:23:10,540
You can write poems, Miss Dong?
415
00:23:11,810 --> 00:23:12,540
Let's try.
416
00:23:17,640 --> 00:23:19,130
Nowhere to be seen deep in the forest,
417
00:23:19,370 --> 00:23:21,000
but their fragrance
reveals their beauty.
418
00:23:29,420 --> 00:23:30,280
Begonias.
419
00:23:30,680 --> 00:23:32,500
They may not be bright,
420
00:23:32,890 --> 00:23:34,200
but they carry a warm, vernal scent.
421
00:23:34,760 --> 00:23:36,630
Also known
as the understanding sweetheart.
422
00:23:37,090 --> 00:23:38,520
Not ostentatious,
423
00:23:38,630 --> 00:23:39,760
but undeniably captivating.
424
00:23:41,780 --> 00:23:42,330
Thank you.
425
00:23:43,000 --> 00:23:43,520
Very well.
426
00:23:44,220 --> 00:23:45,650
I will take over.
427
00:23:46,580 --> 00:23:48,730
I wish to turn into the wind
and blow the flowers afar,
428
00:23:48,920 --> 00:23:51,020
ushering in spring
to thousands of households.
429
00:24:03,070 --> 00:24:04,500
Morning glories bloom in the small hours
430
00:24:04,890 --> 00:24:06,180
and grow upwards without stopping.
431
00:24:06,410 --> 00:24:08,630
They can be found in the places
around the common folks.
432
00:24:08,920 --> 00:24:10,240
Your Highness, you are dedicated,
433
00:24:10,330 --> 00:24:11,370
amiable, and generous
434
00:24:11,610 --> 00:24:12,520
in serving your people.
435
00:24:15,400 --> 00:24:17,530
From now on, morning glories
will always remind me
436
00:24:17,650 --> 00:24:19,090
of your advice, Yong'an.
437
00:24:20,940 --> 00:24:21,440
Shaojun,
438
00:24:21,870 --> 00:24:22,590
your turn.
439
00:24:23,720 --> 00:24:25,380
Ask not when spring comes or leaves,
440
00:24:26,490 --> 00:24:27,850
for it blooms on winter's sprigs.
441
00:24:37,430 --> 00:24:39,430
Roses suit both plain
or bright appearances
442
00:24:39,460 --> 00:24:40,980
and bloom in either spring or autumn.
443
00:24:41,370 --> 00:24:42,960
Lord Pei, you are blessed
with abundance,
444
00:24:43,440 --> 00:24:45,040
there is no need to seek more.
445
00:24:45,850 --> 00:24:47,740
Let nature take its course.
446
00:25:08,740 --> 00:25:09,330
Sanlang,
447
00:25:10,460 --> 00:25:11,040
it's your turn.
448
00:25:15,200 --> 00:25:17,540
Fallen petals chase the water
for miles on end,
449
00:25:18,940 --> 00:25:21,610
the bright moon outshines
the emerald ridges on high.
450
00:25:28,460 --> 00:25:29,020
Why are you
451
00:25:29,240 --> 00:25:29,850
not picking any?
452
00:25:43,870 --> 00:25:45,850
Commander Wei and I met each other
through Dou Grass
453
00:25:46,830 --> 00:25:48,260
and then this Allamanda.
454
00:25:48,630 --> 00:25:49,740
It's an interesting fate.
455
00:25:51,030 --> 00:25:52,890
Although this flower
is beautiful and fragrant,
456
00:25:53,420 --> 00:25:55,070
it's also poisonous and easily withers.
457
00:25:56,240 --> 00:25:58,940
Beautiful things are often like this.
458
00:26:00,830 --> 00:26:01,900
Ephemeral,
459
00:26:02,440 --> 00:26:03,460
unapproachable,
460
00:26:04,590 --> 00:26:05,810
and indistinguishable.
461
00:26:26,440 --> 00:26:27,540
It seems you favor
462
00:26:28,260 --> 00:26:29,350
Shaojun more than us.
463
00:26:29,720 --> 00:26:31,110
"Suit both plain and bright appearance
464
00:26:31,110 --> 00:26:32,650
and blooms
in either spring or autumn."
465
00:26:32,690 --> 00:26:34,130
What a compliment.
466
00:26:34,810 --> 00:26:36,440
Your Highness, please don't tease me.
467
00:26:36,880 --> 00:26:38,020
Sanguan, don't tease her.
468
00:26:38,590 --> 00:26:39,870
I'm not teasing her.
469
00:26:40,460 --> 00:26:41,180
In the near future,
470
00:26:41,520 --> 00:26:42,460
Shaojun
471
00:26:42,570 --> 00:26:43,590
will be marrying
472
00:26:44,330 --> 00:26:46,940
all the fine ladies in the garden.
473
00:26:47,570 --> 00:26:48,950
You must be joking, Your Highness.
474
00:26:49,650 --> 00:26:51,680
I won't take concubines.
475
00:26:52,390 --> 00:26:53,460
I will only marry
476
00:26:54,940 --> 00:26:55,940
the woman I hold dear.
477
00:27:03,850 --> 00:27:05,720
Shaojun is always a gentleman.
478
00:27:05,980 --> 00:27:06,760
I believe
479
00:27:07,390 --> 00:27:08,850
you won't defy someone's will.
480
00:27:28,460 --> 00:27:29,420
I think
481
00:27:29,810 --> 00:27:32,630
Commander Wei composed the best poem
482
00:27:32,810 --> 00:27:34,370
and it matches the flower.
483
00:27:35,000 --> 00:27:36,980
Why don't you
484
00:27:37,090 --> 00:27:38,590
pick a flower for Princess Yong'an?
485
00:27:42,810 --> 00:27:43,630
If so,
486
00:27:43,920 --> 00:27:45,940
I will do as you say.
487
00:28:23,960 --> 00:28:24,960
Flowers bloom and wither
488
00:28:25,520 --> 00:28:26,520
in a recurring cycle.
489
00:28:27,460 --> 00:28:28,460
Even if they die,
490
00:28:29,090 --> 00:28:30,440
they will be reborn.
491
00:28:36,240 --> 00:28:36,920
Excellent.
492
00:28:37,420 --> 00:28:39,150
That's impressive, Sanlang.
493
00:28:39,780 --> 00:28:40,570
Serve the liquor.
494
00:29:10,240 --> 00:29:11,810
Everyone, please.
495
00:29:15,390 --> 00:29:16,120
Hold on.
496
00:29:18,630 --> 00:29:19,460
What's it, Sanlang?
497
00:29:20,660 --> 00:29:22,380
How could it be called
a flower banquet
498
00:29:22,440 --> 00:29:24,090
if we don't put the flower
on Her Highness?
499
00:29:24,980 --> 00:29:25,960
You have a point.
500
00:29:26,180 --> 00:29:28,130
You first, Sanlang.
501
00:29:33,020 --> 00:29:33,650
Since
502
00:29:33,960 --> 00:29:36,680
I chose the flower for Her Highness,
503
00:29:37,350 --> 00:29:38,760
naturally, I will
504
00:29:39,240 --> 00:29:40,760
put it on for Her Highness.
505
00:29:52,350 --> 00:29:53,390
What are you trying to do?
506
00:30:04,220 --> 00:30:04,720
Very well.
507
00:30:05,130 --> 00:30:07,460
Let's consider this an early celebration
for the spring season.
508
00:30:08,650 --> 00:30:10,110
Everyone, please.
509
00:30:37,830 --> 00:30:38,810
You requested
510
00:30:38,980 --> 00:30:40,420
a marriage decree with Jiang Ci?
511
00:30:40,680 --> 00:30:41,890
I have made up my mind.
512
00:30:43,740 --> 00:30:44,440
Pei Yan,
513
00:30:45,040 --> 00:30:47,370
are you aware
that she's in deep waters now?
514
00:30:48,310 --> 00:30:49,610
If you care for her,
515
00:30:50,240 --> 00:30:51,890
why don't you ask what she truly wants?
516
00:30:53,070 --> 00:30:54,440
I won't let her walk on eggshells
517
00:30:55,020 --> 00:30:56,440
like you do.
518
00:30:58,240 --> 00:30:59,440
She will only be safe
519
00:31:00,130 --> 00:31:01,420
when she's with me.
520
00:31:03,130 --> 00:31:03,940
Safe, you say?
521
00:31:04,940 --> 00:31:06,440
She almost took the poisonous liquor
522
00:31:06,440 --> 00:31:07,630
right in front of us just now.
523
00:31:08,540 --> 00:31:09,920
You call this safe?
524
00:31:13,650 --> 00:31:15,590
I will make you pay
525
00:31:16,420 --> 00:31:18,090
if you ever land her in danger again.
526
00:31:32,970 --> 00:31:33,640
Your Lordship.
527
00:31:33,780 --> 00:31:35,310
Monitor Ms. Du's movements.
528
00:31:35,530 --> 00:31:36,870
Find out what she has been doing
529
00:31:37,000 --> 00:31:38,150
for Mother.
530
00:31:39,740 --> 00:31:40,540
Yes, Your Lordship.
531
00:31:54,000 --> 00:31:55,590
I can't eat with ease
532
00:31:55,940 --> 00:31:57,350
when you are standing
in front of me.
533
00:31:58,370 --> 00:31:58,940
Liu Cui,
534
00:31:59,590 --> 00:32:00,390
stay here.
535
00:32:00,940 --> 00:32:02,130
The rest of you will leave.
536
00:32:02,860 --> 00:32:03,610
Yes, Your Highness.
537
00:32:08,370 --> 00:32:09,680
What's your order, Your Highness?
538
00:32:10,440 --> 00:32:11,700
Sit down and eat with me.
539
00:32:12,220 --> 00:32:13,440
I wouldn't dare, Your Highness.
540
00:32:13,780 --> 00:32:14,890
Why not?
541
00:32:15,180 --> 00:32:16,420
You follow my orders, don't you?
542
00:32:21,920 --> 00:32:22,420
Eat up.
543
00:32:35,870 --> 00:32:36,940
Where are you from?
544
00:32:39,090 --> 00:32:40,240
I'm from Shou County.
545
00:32:40,780 --> 00:32:41,630
Shou County?
546
00:32:42,460 --> 00:32:43,540
I'm from Liang'an.
547
00:32:43,860 --> 00:32:45,320
Our hometowns are quite near,
548
00:32:45,380 --> 00:32:46,850
so we are considered hometown friends.
549
00:32:47,540 --> 00:32:48,980
Your Highness is of a noble status.
550
00:32:49,020 --> 00:32:50,310
I can't associate myself with you.
551
00:32:50,920 --> 00:32:52,610
I'm only a guest here.
552
00:32:55,240 --> 00:32:56,500
Look at the stuffed tofu.
553
00:32:57,200 --> 00:32:59,420
In the palace,
the fillings are made of prawns.
554
00:32:59,780 --> 00:33:00,830
It's fresh and delicious.
555
00:33:01,180 --> 00:33:02,280
But I still prefer
556
00:33:02,460 --> 00:33:03,920
meat fillings like ours.
557
00:33:04,840 --> 00:33:06,570
Do you also like stuffed tofu,
Your Highness?
558
00:33:08,850 --> 00:33:10,760
My sister also likes that, too.
559
00:33:11,280 --> 00:33:13,020
She always wants me to make it for her.
560
00:33:15,070 --> 00:33:16,890
I wonder how tall
she has grown now
561
00:33:17,830 --> 00:33:19,130
and if she's still craving food.
562
00:33:20,950 --> 00:33:23,380
Did you enter the palace
as a maidservant for your sister?
563
00:33:24,200 --> 00:33:25,220
My family is poor.
564
00:33:25,480 --> 00:33:26,370
I had no choice.
565
00:33:29,060 --> 00:33:30,280
Please forgive me, Your Highness.
566
00:33:30,540 --> 00:33:31,890
I shouldn't have told you this.
567
00:33:33,720 --> 00:33:34,460
It's fine.
568
00:33:35,370 --> 00:33:37,020
When I was in the village,
569
00:33:37,140 --> 00:33:38,550
I always ran around the mountains.
570
00:33:38,650 --> 00:33:40,180
People called me an outgoing girl.
571
00:33:40,940 --> 00:33:42,040
I find that this palace
572
00:33:42,460 --> 00:33:44,180
is not as free as our hometowns.
573
00:33:44,950 --> 00:33:46,570
But I believe those
who seek a living here
574
00:33:47,310 --> 00:33:48,570
have someone
575
00:33:48,830 --> 00:33:51,020
they prepare to sacrifice for.
576
00:33:54,760 --> 00:33:55,760
You have your sister,
577
00:33:56,340 --> 00:33:57,960
and so do I.
578
00:33:58,860 --> 00:34:00,190
Thoughts of them
579
00:34:00,310 --> 00:34:02,340
are how we push ourselves
through the days here.
580
00:34:08,739 --> 00:34:09,409
Here.
581
00:34:09,739 --> 00:34:11,239
I can't accept this, Your Highness.
582
00:34:11,630 --> 00:34:12,230
Take it.
583
00:34:18,170 --> 00:34:20,000
Both of us have our own
desperate situations.
584
00:34:20,440 --> 00:34:21,520
Take this hairpin
585
00:34:21,670 --> 00:34:22,650
to get some money
586
00:34:22,780 --> 00:34:24,409
and buy something good for your sister.
587
00:34:29,659 --> 00:34:31,290
Whether we are
inside or outside the palace,
588
00:34:31,400 --> 00:34:32,900
if we support each other,
589
00:34:33,820 --> 00:34:34,980
the bitter winter
590
00:34:35,250 --> 00:34:36,380
will be shorter.
591
00:34:41,050 --> 00:34:42,219
Thank you, Your Highness.
592
00:34:43,400 --> 00:34:44,170
Let's eat.
593
00:34:46,730 --> 00:34:49,020
Commander of the Guangming Bureau
has arrived.
594
00:34:57,540 --> 00:34:58,730
Greetings, Commander Wei.
595
00:35:02,130 --> 00:35:03,090
Greetings, Your Highness.
596
00:35:04,040 --> 00:35:05,570
What brings you here, Commander Wei?
597
00:35:06,820 --> 00:35:08,440
I noticed you are fond
of flowers and plants
598
00:35:08,440 --> 00:35:09,770
during the flower banquet,
599
00:35:10,000 --> 00:35:11,590
so I specially brought two gardeners
600
00:35:11,820 --> 00:35:14,090
to tend the garden of Yuchun Pavilion.
601
00:35:14,650 --> 00:35:16,960
I hope you can enjoy
a beautiful garden.
602
00:35:18,520 --> 00:35:19,820
I appreciate that, Commander Wei.
603
00:35:20,360 --> 00:35:20,860
Liu Cui,
604
00:35:21,170 --> 00:35:23,130
show them around the place.
605
00:35:24,520 --> 00:35:25,420
Yes, Your Highness.
606
00:35:34,230 --> 00:35:36,010
Have you found out
who tried to poison me?
607
00:35:39,230 --> 00:35:40,670
I have sent my men to investigate.
608
00:35:41,250 --> 00:35:42,840
If you encounter anything here,
609
00:35:43,170 --> 00:35:44,860
the gardeners
will inform me immediately.
610
00:35:45,820 --> 00:35:46,750
You ought to be careful
611
00:35:47,090 --> 00:35:48,230
while I'm away.
612
00:35:51,710 --> 00:35:53,130
We should take care of ourselves.
613
00:36:07,210 --> 00:36:08,320
What's your name?
614
00:36:09,420 --> 00:36:10,070
My name
615
00:36:10,820 --> 00:36:12,170
is Chun Er.
616
00:36:14,710 --> 00:36:15,840
On this handkerchief,
617
00:36:15,880 --> 00:36:17,960
it's the poisonous liquor
you have to Princess Yong'an.
618
00:36:18,540 --> 00:36:20,070
Why did you poison Her Highness?
619
00:36:21,940 --> 00:36:22,540
I just
620
00:36:22,920 --> 00:36:24,730
followed orders.
621
00:36:25,670 --> 00:36:26,500
Whose orders?
622
00:36:29,420 --> 00:36:32,940
I followed the order
of Chief Steward Tao.
623
00:36:34,150 --> 00:36:35,150
Chief Steward Tao?
624
00:36:36,110 --> 00:36:38,170
How dare you slander
Inner Court Chief Steward?
625
00:36:39,090 --> 00:36:41,420
I wouldn't dare to lie
in front of you, Commander Wei.
626
00:36:41,940 --> 00:36:43,980
I followed the order
of Chief Steward Tao.
627
00:36:45,340 --> 00:36:46,940
Everyone knows
628
00:36:46,940 --> 00:36:49,170
that His Majesty dotes
on Princess Yong'an.
629
00:36:50,000 --> 00:36:52,040
Chief Steward is loyal to His Majesty.
630
00:36:52,500 --> 00:36:53,960
Why would he hurt Princess Yong'an?
631
00:36:54,900 --> 00:36:55,980
I don't know.
632
00:36:56,480 --> 00:36:58,630
I only followed the order.
633
00:36:59,730 --> 00:37:00,920
You followed the order?
634
00:37:01,800 --> 00:37:03,850
You followed the order
to poison Princess Yong'an,
635
00:37:03,860 --> 00:37:06,120
and I followed the order
to keep Princess Yong'an safe.
636
00:37:07,070 --> 00:37:07,820
Do tell me,
637
00:37:08,210 --> 00:37:09,540
should we follow yours
638
00:37:09,860 --> 00:37:10,670
or mine?
639
00:37:13,570 --> 00:37:16,380
Your order, of course.
640
00:37:17,750 --> 00:37:18,610
In that case,
641
00:37:18,940 --> 00:37:20,840
you poisoned Princess Yong'an on purpose
642
00:37:21,220 --> 00:37:22,880
and slandered Inner Court Chief Steward.
643
00:37:23,570 --> 00:37:26,070
This crime warrants the execution
of your entire clan.
644
00:37:27,170 --> 00:37:29,090
I'm telling the truth.
645
00:37:30,000 --> 00:37:32,000
My parents are old,
646
00:37:32,570 --> 00:37:34,570
and my brother is less than ten.
647
00:37:34,770 --> 00:37:36,460
Please spare me, sir.
648
00:37:38,540 --> 00:37:40,820
Your destiny is in your hands.
649
00:37:41,470 --> 00:37:42,230
Out with it.
650
00:37:43,170 --> 00:37:45,020
What did Chief Steward Tao tell you?
651
00:37:46,750 --> 00:37:48,110
A few days ago, Chief Steward Tao
652
00:37:48,940 --> 00:37:50,900
gave me a bottle of poison
653
00:37:51,440 --> 00:37:53,480
and ordered me to put it
in Princess Yong'an's cup
654
00:37:54,090 --> 00:37:56,070
during the flower banquet.
655
00:37:56,500 --> 00:37:58,110
He promised to let me leave the palace
656
00:37:58,770 --> 00:38:00,200
and return to my parents
657
00:38:01,060 --> 00:38:02,910
once the deal was done.
658
00:38:04,950 --> 00:38:06,140
You serve at the Eastern Palace.
659
00:38:06,680 --> 00:38:08,700
Where did this conversation take place?
660
00:38:11,120 --> 00:38:11,770
It was
661
00:38:12,350 --> 00:38:14,870
at a dark corner behind the palace gate.
662
00:38:16,330 --> 00:38:17,500
What time was it?
663
00:38:18,570 --> 00:38:20,560
Around...
664
00:38:20,680 --> 00:38:23,100
three-quarters past the hour of Hai.
[*Hai hour is around 9 PM to 11 PM]
665
00:38:23,340 --> 00:38:25,040
Three-quarters past the hour of Hai?
666
00:38:25,720 --> 00:38:26,270
Yes,
667
00:38:26,540 --> 00:38:27,890
three-quarters past the hour of Hai.
668
00:38:30,020 --> 00:38:31,500
Every day around this time,
669
00:38:31,620 --> 00:38:33,370
His Majesty takes his soothing soup,
670
00:38:34,430 --> 00:38:36,250
served by Chief Steward Tao.
671
00:38:36,810 --> 00:38:38,720
How could he have met you
at the palace gate?
672
00:38:39,290 --> 00:38:39,790
Confess.
673
00:38:40,220 --> 00:38:41,350
Who sent you?
674
00:38:42,140 --> 00:38:44,120
It wasn't Chief Steward Tao himself.
675
00:38:44,600 --> 00:38:45,370
It was
676
00:38:45,410 --> 00:38:47,390
someone sent by him.
677
00:38:47,640 --> 00:38:48,140
Who?
678
00:38:50,000 --> 00:38:50,790
It was...
679
00:38:52,060 --> 00:38:53,220
It was...
680
00:38:54,620 --> 00:38:55,500
Ms. Du?
681
00:39:02,080 --> 00:39:03,620
No.
682
00:39:03,620 --> 00:39:04,390
Who is Ms. Du?
683
00:39:04,390 --> 00:39:05,330
I don't know her.
684
00:39:07,100 --> 00:39:07,660
Yi Fei.
685
00:39:08,300 --> 00:39:09,080
Yes.
686
00:39:09,730 --> 00:39:10,310
Take her away.
687
00:39:12,620 --> 00:39:13,980
Sir! Please spare me, sir!
688
00:39:13,980 --> 00:39:16,980
Sir!
689
00:39:19,220 --> 00:39:19,730
My Lord,
690
00:39:20,520 --> 00:39:23,310
why would Ms. Du poison Miss Jiang?
691
00:39:23,810 --> 00:39:24,810
From what I see,
692
00:39:25,070 --> 00:39:26,220
only His Majesty
693
00:39:26,720 --> 00:39:29,430
might hold a grudge against her
due to Prince Qi's death.
694
00:39:30,550 --> 00:39:32,200
She answered my questions smoothly.
695
00:39:32,410 --> 00:39:34,470
Someone must've taught her this.
696
00:39:35,970 --> 00:39:37,470
Even though she was well-prepared,
697
00:39:38,080 --> 00:39:39,450
she left out some details.
698
00:39:41,580 --> 00:39:42,550
Are you suggesting
699
00:39:43,070 --> 00:39:44,070
that Ms. Du
700
00:39:45,050 --> 00:39:47,740
intended to frame His Majesty
with Miss Jiang's poisoning case?
701
00:39:49,690 --> 00:39:51,560
Judging from the maid's reaction,
702
00:39:52,170 --> 00:39:53,390
it's highly likely
703
00:39:53,770 --> 00:39:56,350
Madam Rongguo planned
to slander His Majesty
704
00:39:56,560 --> 00:39:57,730
using Tao Zizhu.
705
00:39:59,500 --> 00:40:00,770
But from what I know,
706
00:40:01,690 --> 00:40:04,060
Lord Pei favors Miss Jiang.
707
00:40:04,390 --> 00:40:05,670
Why would Madam Rongguo...
708
00:40:07,810 --> 00:40:08,580
He likes her,
709
00:40:08,650 --> 00:40:10,730
but that doesn't mean
his family feels the same way.
710
00:40:12,080 --> 00:40:14,830
Spread words that the maid has
already killed herself.
711
00:40:15,560 --> 00:40:16,670
Look into this maid.
712
00:40:17,520 --> 00:40:18,080
Also,
713
00:40:19,730 --> 00:40:20,730
keep an eye on Ms. Du.
714
00:40:21,940 --> 00:40:22,460
Yes.
715
00:40:24,120 --> 00:40:25,870
Thanks to you, sir.
716
00:40:26,250 --> 00:40:26,960
Otherwise,
717
00:40:27,020 --> 00:40:28,780
Miss Jiang wouldn't
be able to escape that.
718
00:40:41,560 --> 00:40:42,710
Cabbage for sale!
719
00:40:42,710 --> 00:40:43,290
Is it fresh?
720
00:40:43,290 --> 00:40:44,660
Have a look at these cabbages.
721
00:40:45,120 --> 00:40:45,730
They are fresh.
722
00:40:45,730 --> 00:40:46,690
We grow them ourselves.
723
00:40:48,690 --> 00:40:49,500
I want this.
724
00:40:50,330 --> 00:40:51,330
Here you go.
725
00:40:54,860 --> 00:40:55,710
I put the money here.
726
00:40:56,010 --> 00:40:56,960
Have a nice day.
727
00:41:07,870 --> 00:41:08,640
I noticed
728
00:41:08,730 --> 00:41:10,330
Wei Zhao also put a tail on Ms. Du.
729
00:41:11,170 --> 00:41:12,870
He wouldn't do that without a reason.
730
00:41:14,620 --> 00:41:15,190
Your Lordship.
731
00:41:26,000 --> 00:41:27,330
What makes you so hastily
732
00:41:28,580 --> 00:41:30,350
that you overlook your formalities?
733
00:41:31,400 --> 00:41:33,580
Princess Yong'an was almost poisoned
in the Eastern Palace.
734
00:41:34,230 --> 00:41:35,830
Mother, please tell me
why that happened.
735
00:41:37,710 --> 00:41:39,060
Why did you come to me instead?
736
00:41:40,440 --> 00:41:41,370
What would you do
737
00:41:42,920 --> 00:41:44,210
if it were me?
738
00:41:47,330 --> 00:41:49,170
I couldn't keep Jiang Ci safe before.
739
00:41:49,830 --> 00:41:50,420
From now on,
740
00:41:50,830 --> 00:41:52,160
Mother, if you endanger her again,
741
00:41:52,620 --> 00:41:54,250
I won't show any mercy on you.
742
00:41:59,540 --> 00:42:01,560
I toiled away to raise you
743
00:42:01,940 --> 00:42:03,330
and guide you.
744
00:42:04,250 --> 00:42:06,160
You want to go against me
for a mere brat?
745
00:42:06,280 --> 00:42:08,680
His Majesty personally conferred
Jiang Ci the title of princess.
746
00:42:08,940 --> 00:42:10,690
She's the royal you have always wanted.
747
00:42:10,820 --> 00:42:12,750
I will request His Majesty
for a marriage decree
748
00:42:12,830 --> 00:42:14,190
with Jiang Ci.
749
00:42:14,690 --> 00:42:17,390
I hope you will think carefully
before you act in the future.
750
00:42:17,850 --> 00:42:18,540
Pei Yan!
751
00:42:21,980 --> 00:42:23,020
Do you truly want to
752
00:42:23,020 --> 00:42:24,750
ruin everything I have done for you?
753
00:42:26,620 --> 00:42:28,310
Mother, did you plan for my sake
754
00:42:28,310 --> 00:42:29,350
or for yourself?
755
00:42:31,560 --> 00:42:33,020
I will serve you as your son,
756
00:42:33,430 --> 00:42:35,390
but I will also serve the Liang State
as a subject.
757
00:42:52,750 --> 00:42:54,580
I wanted to kill two birds
with one stone,
758
00:42:57,480 --> 00:42:58,620
and finish that girl.
759
00:42:58,620 --> 00:43:00,620
But I undermined Xie Che.
760
00:43:01,770 --> 00:43:03,350
Yet, it fell through.
761
00:43:06,750 --> 00:43:08,190
His Lordship
762
00:43:09,020 --> 00:43:10,690
appears to believe
763
00:43:11,190 --> 00:43:12,540
that you poisoned her, Madam.
764
00:43:12,620 --> 00:43:14,190
Xie Che gave him what he wanted,
765
00:43:15,540 --> 00:43:17,560
so he lost his mind.
766
00:43:19,730 --> 00:43:21,080
He didn't know
767
00:43:21,080 --> 00:43:23,440
how cruel Xie Che would be afterward.
768
00:43:30,170 --> 00:43:32,310
That brat dodged it
at the flower banquet.
769
00:43:33,020 --> 00:43:34,540
Someone must've saved her.
770
00:43:36,600 --> 00:43:37,750
If it wasn't Yan,
771
00:43:39,350 --> 00:43:40,330
who else could it be?
772
00:43:43,080 --> 00:43:45,060
Did Wei Zhao attend the flower banquet?
773
00:43:45,190 --> 00:43:45,870
Yes, he did.
774
00:43:48,100 --> 00:43:49,480
Is Chun Er taken care of?
775
00:43:49,710 --> 00:43:50,960
She has already killed herself.
776
00:43:51,170 --> 00:43:53,750
Guangming Bureau probably
hasn't noticed anything.
777
00:43:55,120 --> 00:43:56,390
Keep an eye on Wei Zhao.
778
00:43:57,100 --> 00:43:59,210
I can't let him foil my plan.
779
00:43:59,980 --> 00:44:00,480
Yes, Madam.
780
00:44:18,060 --> 00:44:19,640
Greetings, Your Majesty.
781
00:44:19,670 --> 00:44:20,520
Come over, Pei Yan.
782
00:44:20,600 --> 00:44:22,670
Take a look at the game.
783
00:44:23,600 --> 00:44:24,350
Who wins?
784
00:44:25,560 --> 00:44:27,920
Everything is up to Your Majesty.
785
00:44:28,440 --> 00:44:30,190
You can decide the winner and loser.
786
00:44:30,710 --> 00:44:32,020
As you said,
787
00:44:32,250 --> 00:44:34,390
both of my hands are competing
against each other,
788
00:44:35,580 --> 00:44:37,580
and the final outcome
is up to me.
789
00:44:38,580 --> 00:44:40,190
Your sovereign covers the entire land.
790
00:44:40,250 --> 00:44:42,040
People of every echelon
are your subject.
791
00:44:42,330 --> 00:44:43,620
Under your vast grace,
792
00:44:43,620 --> 00:44:44,370
every small pawn
793
00:44:44,640 --> 00:44:46,500
across the lands
794
00:44:46,600 --> 00:44:47,850
will pledge their loyalty to you.
795
00:44:50,620 --> 00:44:51,160
Very well.
796
00:44:51,480 --> 00:44:52,390
Given what you say,
797
00:44:53,000 --> 00:44:54,620
I will let Black win.
798
00:44:55,580 --> 00:44:56,230
What do you say?
799
00:45:01,250 --> 00:45:02,310
I heard
800
00:45:02,440 --> 00:45:03,810
that Madam Rongguo
801
00:45:03,980 --> 00:45:05,310
is trying to set up
802
00:45:05,310 --> 00:45:07,460
you and the daughter of Minister Dong.
803
00:45:07,530 --> 00:45:08,900
I'm sorry about that, Your Majesty.
804
00:45:09,100 --> 00:45:10,690
I'm of marriageable age,
805
00:45:10,920 --> 00:45:11,960
but I'm not married yet.
806
00:45:12,020 --> 00:45:13,390
My mother is too worried about me,
807
00:45:13,660 --> 00:45:14,810
so she hastily finds me a match.
808
00:45:15,270 --> 00:45:16,210
Does that mean
809
00:45:17,000 --> 00:45:19,160
you're not interested
in Minister Dong's daughter?
810
00:45:19,980 --> 00:45:20,520
Not at all.
811
00:45:20,870 --> 00:45:21,370
I
812
00:45:22,660 --> 00:45:23,690
have someone I like.
813
00:45:24,000 --> 00:45:25,310
I shouldn't affect her.
814
00:45:29,530 --> 00:45:30,820
Your Majesty, I dare to ask again
815
00:45:30,980 --> 00:45:32,140
for a marriage decree.
816
00:45:33,830 --> 00:45:34,850
Yong'an again?
817
00:45:35,710 --> 00:45:36,250
I will
818
00:45:36,830 --> 00:45:38,100
marry no one but Princess Yong'an.
819
00:45:41,370 --> 00:45:42,830
Yong'an
820
00:45:42,830 --> 00:45:44,060
has been through
821
00:45:44,210 --> 00:45:45,440
a lot of hardship.
822
00:45:46,040 --> 00:45:47,230
I believe you know that.
823
00:45:49,850 --> 00:45:50,980
How will you
824
00:45:51,520 --> 00:45:52,580
treat her?
825
00:45:54,350 --> 00:45:55,600
I swear to Your Majesty,
826
00:45:56,040 --> 00:45:57,690
I will definitely
hold Her Highness dear
827
00:45:58,040 --> 00:45:59,620
and protect her from danger.
828
00:46:00,190 --> 00:46:01,890
I will also dedicate myself
to Liang State
829
00:46:02,170 --> 00:46:03,830
to defend the country
and serve its ruler.
830
00:46:06,330 --> 00:46:07,440
Please take care of her
831
00:46:08,210 --> 00:46:09,870
on my behalf.
832
00:46:10,120 --> 00:46:11,980
Don't let her dwell on
833
00:46:12,210 --> 00:46:14,270
the distressing past.
834
00:46:14,870 --> 00:46:15,670
Go ahead
835
00:46:15,870 --> 00:46:17,390
and prepare for your wedding.
836
00:46:18,040 --> 00:46:19,060
Thank you, Your Majesty.
