[Episode 30]
[The Antagonist May Be Late, But He Will Surely Arrive]
22
00:01:55,140 --> 00:01:56,760
I instructed you to find someone, not to abduct them.
23
00:01:57,500 --> 00:01:58,070
My lord,
24
00:01:58,570 --> 00:01:59,990
this lady came here of her own accord.
25
00:02:01,210 --> 00:02:01,790
Why would she cry this much
26
00:02:01,810 --> 00:02:03,270
if she truly came here of her own accord?
27
00:02:08,610 --> 00:02:09,200
Your Majesty,
28
00:02:09,660 --> 00:02:11,200
this girl actually knows your identity.
29
00:02:47,940 --> 00:02:48,640
What's your name?
30
00:02:49,660 --> 00:02:50,590
Liao Tingyan.
31
00:03:53,010 --> 00:03:56,240
Why did she enter my dream without permission and stir my heart?
32
00:03:58,050 --> 00:03:59,520
Why did she show up here
33
00:04:01,420 --> 00:04:02,550
by coincidence?
34
00:04:07,140 --> 00:04:08,550
There's something more to this than meets the eye.
35
00:04:09,730 --> 00:04:12,640
I cannot just let my guard down because of that dream.
36
00:04:18,960 --> 00:04:19,880
Why did you cry?
37
00:04:21,730 --> 00:04:23,670
In the realm of men, absence stirs no grief.
38
00:04:26,610 --> 00:04:28,080
But when we meet again, grief blossoms at once.
39
00:04:29,050 --> 00:04:29,880
Do you know me?
40
00:04:32,690 --> 00:04:34,200
Of course I know you.
41
00:04:35,370 --> 00:04:36,270
Have we met before?
42
00:04:37,420 --> 00:04:38,960
This is our first encounter in this lifetime.
43
00:04:40,130 --> 00:04:40,880

Just to see you.
48
00:04:58,490 --> 00:04:59,520
You look the same.
49
00:05:00,290 --> 00:05:01,840
However, those clear eyes,
50
00:05:02,780 --> 00:05:04,000
the gentle contours,
51
00:05:04,730 --> 00:05:06,590

You're the emperor of Hu Kingdom.
62
00:05:47,170 --> 00:05:48,470
If so, have you heard
63
00:05:49,690 --> 00:05:50,790
that I've slain countless lives?
64
00:05:56,540 --> 00:05:57,440
I once
65
00:05:58,250 --> 00:06:00,590
peeled the skin of an individual who criticized me harshly
66
00:06:01,050 --> 00:06:02,200
and hung it on the palace wall
67
00:06:03,100 --> 00:06:04,590
until the wind and rain wore him down,
68
00:06:05,810 --> 00:06:07,150
leaving nothing but a white skeleton.
69
00:06:08,580 --> 00:06:10,590
In the past, you would vanquish one's clan for no reason.
70
00:06:11,220 --> 00:06:13,880
You would blow up half of Gengchen Celestial Palace when you cast a spell.
71
00:06:14,930 --> 00:06:16,320
You would reduce demon generals to ashes
72
00:06:16,340 --> 00:06:17,440
just so you could use them as fertilizer.
73
00:06:21,980 --> 00:06:23,880

I finally see you again.
82

Your body is fine now.
83
00:07:15,340 --> 00:07:17,080
But you've lost all of your spiritual power.
84
00:07:23,370 --> 00:07:25,000
You still look the same.
85
00:07:28,290 --> 00:07:30,030
However, there's something different about you somehow.
86
00:07:34,930 --> 00:07:38,270
Now your face bears a hint of living warmth.
87
00:07:39,580 --> 00:07:41,230
You no longer look as pale as before.

I'm sure your life will be much more peaceful
89
00:07:49,660 --> 00:07:50,910
as a mortal in this lifetime.
90
00:08:14,660 --> 00:08:15,670
I'm going to die soon.
91
00:08:16,860 --> 00:08:17,840
Heaven may want me dead,
92
00:08:20,020 --> 00:08:21,710
but I won't hand my life to it.
93
00:08:25,220 --> 00:08:26,760
Would you have been this carefree all along
94
00:08:30,490 --> 00:08:32,590
without the memories we had together?
95
00:08:49,460 --> 00:08:50,080
Your Majesty,
96
00:08:50,490 --> 00:08:52,110
we found the individual who rescued Wei Xianyu.
97
00:09:00,100 --> 00:09:00,710
Is that her?
98
00:09:04,100 --> 00:09:05,230
Have you identified the individual?
99
00:09:05,650 --> 00:09:06,870
We haven't gotten our hands on any leads yet.
100
00:09:07,890 --> 00:09:09,200
I fell asleep for no reason last night.
101
00:09:10,300 --> 00:09:11,630
Could it be that she has done something to me?
102
00:09:12,770 --> 00:09:14,320
If she's one of the Marquis of Nanyan's retainers,
103
00:09:15,100 --> 00:09:16,040
entering my dream
104
00:09:17,530 --> 00:09:18,680
must be one of their plots.
105
00:09:20,370 --> 00:09:21,080
Get ready.
106
00:09:22,460 --> 00:09:23,470
I'm going to take her to the palace.
107
00:09:23,700 --> 00:09:24,110
But...
108
00:09:25,490 --> 00:09:27,040
Her background is still unknown.
109
00:09:27,820 --> 00:09:28,990
Your Majesty, no matter how much you like her,
110
00:09:29,060 --> 00:09:30,880
it's inappropriate to take her back to the palace.
111
00:09:30,940 --> 00:09:32,160
She's not a mortal.
112
00:09:32,980 --> 00:09:34,200
With our current strength,
113
00:09:35,770 --> 00:09:36,990
I'm afraid we can't do anything about her.
114
00:09:38,460 --> 00:09:40,110
I just don't want to alert her to our intention.
115
00:09:41,860 --> 00:09:43,390
Since she approached me on purpose,
116
00:09:45,220 --> 00:09:47,470
I'll pretend to follow her will
117
00:09:49,130 --> 00:09:49,870
and take her back to the palace.
118
00:09:50,980 --> 00:09:52,710
Your Majesty, you rarely speak usually.
119
00:09:53,250 --> 00:09:54,710
But you spoke quite a lot just to explain yourself.
120
00:09:56,770 --> 00:09:57,840
I shall make the preparations.
121
00:10:31,220 --> 00:10:33,230
Since when did food from the mortal realm become this good?
122
00:10:34,100 --> 00:10:34,680
The mortal realm?
123
00:10:36,340 --> 00:10:37,470
Are you trying to say that you aren't a mortal?
124
00:10:39,700 --> 00:10:41,200
You can treat me as a fairy.
125
00:10:41,650 --> 00:10:42,230
Do you think
126
00:10:43,410 --> 00:10:46,840
such words alone are enough to entice me?
127
00:10:48,100 --> 00:10:49,590
In your current state,
128
00:10:50,180 --> 00:10:51,440
it's normal for you not to trust me.
129
00:10:51,890 --> 00:10:53,960
But I'm curious about something.
130
00:10:55,180 --> 00:10:55,710
What is it?
131
00:10:57,820 --> 00:10:58,960
How should I entice you
132
00:10:59,940 --> 00:11:00,920
so that you will fall for me?
133
00:11:05,820 --> 00:11:06,320
Such audacity!
134
00:11:08,130 --> 00:11:08,710
I know.
135
00:11:09,250 --> 00:11:10,230
Judging from your personality,
136
00:11:10,700 --> 00:11:12,280
you'll surely suspect me for having an ulterior motive.
137
00:11:13,220 --> 00:11:14,870
But now, you no longer have the Truth Spell.
138
00:11:15,770 --> 00:11:17,510
I have no choice but to gain your trust gradually.
139
00:11:21,610 --> 00:11:22,200
Fine.
140
00:11:24,010 --> 00:11:24,990
If so, from now on,
141
00:11:27,770 --> 00:11:29,160
you shall be my spouse.
142
00:11:32,940 --> 00:11:34,040
It's good to be young.
143
00:11:35,220 --> 00:11:36,680
Even when you were spouting such nonsense,
144
00:11:37,890 --> 00:11:39,990
I couldn't even be angry when I saw that tender face of yours.
145
00:11:59,860 --> 00:12:00,800
The height of summer has yet to come,
146
00:12:02,460 --> 00:12:03,510
yet look at how much you're sweating.
147
00:12:04,530 --> 00:12:06,920
After being harmed by a conceited scum,
148
00:12:07,530 --> 00:12:08,960
I was left with a heat-sensitive constitution.
149
00:12:14,130 --> 00:12:15,230
Who's that scum?
150
00:12:19,890 --> 00:12:21,560
Will you take revenge on my behalf if I tell you his identity?
151
00:12:27,700 --> 00:12:28,390
I might consider it.
152
00:12:30,370 --> 00:12:31,750
He's something else.
153
00:12:32,250 --> 00:12:33,040
You can't afford to offend him.
154
00:12:36,010 --> 00:12:37,280
Is he even more powerful than I?
155
00:12:43,410 --> 00:12:44,350
I suppose you two are equal.
156
00:12:53,980 --> 00:12:55,630
There's a main road leading to Yan City, you know?
157
00:12:56,300 --> 00:12:57,350
Why must we go through the woods?
158
00:12:57,820 --> 00:12:58,960
Aren't you afraid of bandits?
159
00:13:01,130 --> 00:13:01,960
Why would I need to fear bandits
160
00:13:02,530 --> 00:13:03,560
when I have you with me?
161
00:13:05,860 --> 00:13:06,870
I don't know any martial arts.
162
00:13:07,300 --> 00:13:08,590
You said you were a fairy, right?
163
00:13:10,700 --> 00:13:12,470
Even fairies aren't omnipotent, you know?
164
00:13:13,340 --> 00:13:15,990
Otherwise, I would have plenty of ways to deal with you.
165
00:13:20,100 --> 00:13:22,320
Don't try to frame me. I did nothing.
166
00:13:23,060 --> 00:13:23,840
It has nothing to do with you.
167
00:13:25,130 --> 00:13:26,440
Seems like I have another headache.
168
00:13:27,250 --> 00:13:27,990
Turn around.
169
00:13:28,530 --> 00:13:29,440
My master was a healer.
170
00:13:30,490 --> 00:13:31,800
You'll be fine after getting some rubs. Come.
171
00:13:31,820 --> 00:13:32,390
No need for that.
172
00:13:33,650 --> 00:13:34,960
Even my imperial physicians couldn't do anything about it.
173
00:13:35,820 --> 00:13:36,560
Just turn around.
174
00:13:44,010 --> 00:13:45,510
Why is my heart beating so fast?
175
00:13:47,130 --> 00:13:48,510
Don't tell me I fell for her just like that.
176
00:13:50,580 --> 00:13:51,040
No way.
177
00:13:52,340 --> 00:13:53,390
No doubt it was her enchantments
178
00:13:54,370 --> 00:13:55,560
that brought this ailment upon my heart.
179
00:13:56,410 --> 00:13:57,350
Relax.
180
00:13:58,460 --> 00:13:59,680
Stop overthinking things.
181
00:14:04,100 --> 00:14:04,960
I mustn't sleep.
182
00:14:08,340 --> 00:14:09,590
Even if his life was spared,
183
00:14:10,610 --> 00:14:12,560
his soul was still damaged.
184
00:14:13,460 --> 00:14:14,630
It hasn't merged well
185
00:14:14,650 --> 00:14:16,200
with his current body.
186
00:14:17,650 --> 00:14:19,510
That's why he's having constant headaches.
187
00:14:21,250 --> 00:14:22,470
Why must you make things so hard on yourself
188
00:14:23,340 --> 00:14:24,920
wherever you go?
189
00:14:32,610 --> 00:14:34,200
Although these are just normal pills
190
00:14:34,490 --> 00:14:35,710
in Serene Vale,
191
00:14:36,860 --> 00:14:38,560
they're more than enough
192
00:14:38,580 --> 00:14:39,630
to cure a mortal.
193
00:14:42,060 --> 00:14:43,160
Is she trying to poison me?
194
00:14:50,060 --> 00:14:51,280
Silly boy.
195
00:14:51,730 --> 00:14:53,350
You don't appreciate a delicate beauty like me at all.
196
00:14:55,130 --> 00:14:56,110
Just sleep in peace.
197
00:15:16,580 --> 00:15:18,510
Assassins! Protect His Majesty!
198
00:15:43,010 --> 00:15:43,750
They did show up.
199
00:15:44,940 --> 00:15:45,470
They did show up?
200
00:15:45,820 --> 00:15:46,590
So, you're doing this on purpose
201
00:15:46,610 --> 00:15:47,800
just so you could make the assassins show up?
202
00:16:03,340 --> 00:16:04,200
He has excellent martial arts skills.
203
00:16:04,940 --> 00:16:07,080
If I had no spells at my command,
204
00:16:07,300 --> 00:16:08,680
I might not be able to defeat him.
205
00:16:09,180 --> 00:16:11,440
So, he was pretending to be weak and harmless all along.
206
00:16:16,180 --> 00:16:18,040
Sima Jiao actually traveled to the mortal realm
207
00:16:18,060 --> 00:16:19,390
and became the emperor of Hu Kingdom.
208
00:16:20,940 --> 00:16:23,840
I assume he's trying to stop me from unlocking Nine Nether Purgatory
209
00:16:24,530 --> 00:16:26,160
and releasing my demonic forces.
210
00:17:00,860 --> 00:17:01,390
Be careful!
211
00:17:03,970 --> 00:17:06,080
Liao Tingyan did make a swift move, huh?
212
00:17:07,450 --> 00:17:09,840
To think that she has actually reunited with Sima Jiao in the mortal realm.
213
00:17:12,690 --> 00:17:14,390
With her protecting Sima Jiao,
214
00:17:15,650 --> 00:17:17,480
this has become quite the problem.
215
00:17:26,370 --> 00:17:27,320
I almost forgot.
216
00:17:27,740 --> 00:17:28,770
I have to cast my spells sparingly
217
00:17:29,100 --> 00:17:29,950
and settle down as a mortal.
218
00:18:03,020 --> 00:18:03,590
Keep him alive.
219
00:18:12,580 --> 00:18:15,040
Such petty mortal tricks won't work on me.
220
00:18:23,930 --> 00:18:24,560
Are you okay?
221
00:18:27,500 --> 00:18:28,080
Imperial physician!
222
00:18:30,410 --> 00:18:31,040
Yes, Your Majesty.
223
00:18:35,170 --> 00:18:36,910
Madam Yan is seriously wounded.
224
00:18:37,020 --> 00:18:38,240
But why does she look like she's...
225
00:18:40,260 --> 00:18:40,910
It hurts.
226
00:18:51,260 --> 00:18:52,000
Why have you
227
00:18:54,450 --> 00:18:55,240
stopped bleeding?
228
00:18:59,970 --> 00:19:01,910
I...
229
00:19:02,890 --> 00:19:03,910
I saw
230
00:19:03,930 --> 00:19:05,080
that you were stabbed by an assassin.
231
00:19:06,100 --> 00:19:06,870
You were bleeding profusely.
232
00:19:07,450 --> 00:19:08,480
How did you stop bleeding
233
00:19:11,260 --> 00:19:12,240
in the blink of an eye?
234
00:19:14,130 --> 00:19:15,670
Your Majesty, I'm sure you're mistaken.
235
00:19:16,540 --> 00:19:18,350
It was just a scratch.
236
00:19:19,170 --> 00:19:20,390
It may look scary,
237
00:19:20,500 --> 00:19:21,430
but in reality, I'm fine.
238
00:19:23,740 --> 00:19:26,200
I shall treat Madam Yan's wound.
239
00:19:29,780 --> 00:19:31,080
If she's one of the Marquis of Nanyan's retainers,
240
00:19:31,610 --> 00:19:33,110
she'll surely try to kill me.
241
00:19:34,610 --> 00:19:35,910
But she rescued me just now.
242
00:19:37,740 --> 00:19:39,110
Seems like she isn't one of his retainers.
243
00:19:40,500 --> 00:19:41,800
If so, what is the demon lady after
244
00:19:43,020 --> 00:19:44,190
by staying with me?
245
00:19:53,170 --> 00:19:55,040
I merely used some of my spiritual power.
246
00:19:55,860 --> 00:19:57,040
What a useless body.
247
00:20:20,170 --> 00:20:21,480
Sima Jiao.
248
00:20:23,340 --> 00:20:24,560
If it weren't for you,
249
00:20:25,260 --> 00:20:27,040
I would never be forced to maintain my cultivation
250
00:20:27,060 --> 00:20:28,150
with another's blood.
251
00:20:29,170 --> 00:20:30,480
I swear I'll pay you back
252
00:20:31,370 --> 00:20:33,320
for this.
253
00:20:34,360 --> 00:20:39,040
[Marquis of Nanyan Residence, Yan City]
254
00:20:43,130 --> 00:20:43,870
My lord,
255
00:20:44,260 --> 00:20:46,840
Wei Xianyu's men tried to assassinate His Majesty when he was on his way back.
256
00:20:46,970 --> 00:20:47,950
His Majesty has arrested them.
257
00:20:50,740 --> 00:20:51,430
What about Wei Xianyu?
258
00:20:52,970 --> 00:20:54,040
He was arrested as well.
259
00:21:01,020 --> 00:21:04,040
He has done a lot for me all these years.
260
00:21:06,500 --> 00:21:07,480
I can no longer keep him with me.
261
00:21:11,740 --> 00:21:13,560
It must've been tough on you.
262
00:21:14,860 --> 00:21:16,080
After all,
263
00:21:17,340 --> 00:21:18,800
I wouldn't feel at ease entrusting this secret
264
00:21:20,210 --> 00:21:21,190
to someone else to deliver.
265
00:21:22,890 --> 00:21:23,870
My lord, you're too courteous.
266
00:21:24,610 --> 00:21:26,480
At present, Sima Jiao has grown suspicious.
267
00:21:27,260 --> 00:21:29,150
My lord, you must be careful.
268
00:22:04,690 --> 00:22:05,520
Who are you?
269
00:22:06,370 --> 00:22:08,110
Marquis, you have endured hardships and bided your time for so long.
270
00:22:08,780 --> 00:22:10,590
You did it so that you could end Sima Jiao, am I right?
271
00:22:12,340 --> 00:22:15,150
Speak. Who exactly are you?
272
00:22:21,100 --> 00:22:23,240
Marquis, I came here to discuss a plan with you earnestly.
273
00:22:23,450 --> 00:22:25,950
I hope you can treat me with respect.
274
00:22:26,820 --> 00:22:27,800
Madam.
275
00:22:28,340 --> 00:22:29,520
Please let me go.
276
00:22:30,500 --> 00:22:32,480
We can talk this over.
277
00:22:41,130 --> 00:22:41,840
Madam,
278
00:22:43,020 --> 00:22:45,760
why are you here?
279
00:22:46,410 --> 00:22:48,150
I know what you wish to achieve.
280
00:22:50,020 --> 00:22:53,430
I can help you seize the empire.
281
00:22:56,930 --> 00:22:58,110
Why are you helping me?
282
00:22:58,210 --> 00:22:59,240
Marquis,
283
00:22:59,610 --> 00:23:00,870
do you know what's on Mount Hu?
284
00:23:01,370 --> 00:23:03,720
I only know that the monarchs of Hu have all been bound to guard the place
285
00:23:05,300 --> 00:23:06,560
generation after generation.
286
00:23:07,580 --> 00:23:08,480
This Mount Hu was called
287
00:23:08,860 --> 00:23:10,630
Mount Feng a thousand years ago.
288
00:23:11,410 --> 00:23:13,390
There's something I need within the mountain.
289
00:23:14,210 --> 00:23:16,630
After performing the worship ritual, the emperors of Hu
290
00:23:16,970 --> 00:23:19,190
would then obtain the imperial seal that grants the power to open it.
291
00:23:20,340 --> 00:23:22,910
That's why I came here to seek your help.
292
00:23:25,610 --> 00:23:28,840
Madam, why didn't you
293
00:23:29,260 --> 00:23:30,630
possess the emperor directly, then?
294
00:23:31,340 --> 00:23:32,760
Wouldn't you be able to achieve your goal if you did so?
295
00:23:34,690 --> 00:23:36,670
It's because you and Sima Jiao possess
296
00:23:37,410 --> 00:23:38,910
the True Dragon Aura.
297
00:23:43,780 --> 00:23:47,190
Did you say that I possess the True Dragon Aura?
298
00:23:47,740 --> 00:23:50,390
Heaven's mandate bestows upon the royal descendants the True Dragon Aura,
299
00:23:51,100 --> 00:23:52,630
even the deities cannot touch them easily.
300
00:23:53,370 --> 00:23:54,870
Only those who possess the True Dragon Aura
301
00:23:55,100 --> 00:23:56,800
have the right to ascend the throne.
302
00:23:57,340 --> 00:24:00,000
Sima Jiao is a fatuous ruler.
303
00:24:01,100 --> 00:24:01,720
Therefore,
304
00:24:02,020 --> 00:24:04,150
Marquis, I'm willing to help you take Sima Jiao's life
305
00:24:04,170 --> 00:24:05,560
and aid you in becoming the ruler.
306
00:24:06,690 --> 00:24:08,950
Madam, you're a reclusive deity.
307
00:24:11,300 --> 00:24:14,840
It's normal for you to have no knowledge about our worldly realm.
308
00:24:16,060 --> 00:24:19,760
But Sima Jiao's worship ritual is nearing.
309
00:24:20,060 --> 00:24:21,480
If he dies right now
310
00:24:21,500 --> 00:24:22,320
for no apparent reason,
311
00:24:23,100 --> 00:24:25,080
even if I do become the ruler,
312
00:24:26,210 --> 00:24:28,670
it will surely draw criticism from others.
313
00:24:35,370 --> 00:24:36,080
If that's the case,
314
00:24:37,260 --> 00:24:38,950
I can act according to your will.
315
00:24:40,500 --> 00:24:42,870
I will uphold justice and eradicate treachery
316
00:24:43,340 --> 00:24:44,480
on your behalf.
317
00:24:45,100 --> 00:24:45,870
However,
318
00:24:46,020 --> 00:24:48,280
if you act only by the methods of the mortal realm,
319
00:24:49,210 --> 00:24:50,800
I fear you will end up losing everything.
320
00:24:55,800 --> 00:24:58,880
[Imperial Palace, Yan City]

Thank you, Your Majesty.
323
00:25:12,130 --> 00:25:12,800
That's enough.
324
00:25:14,260 --> 00:25:15,720
When you served as my companion reader,
325
00:25:16,580 --> 00:25:17,870
you dined and traveled alongside me.
326
00:25:19,060 --> 00:25:19,840
Spare the formalities.
327
00:25:26,740 --> 00:25:27,720
About the task I've assigned to you,
328
00:25:28,300 --> 00:25:29,080
how's the progress?
329
00:25:33,780 --> 00:25:34,520
Your Majesty.
330
00:25:36,500 --> 00:25:37,840
Wei Xianyu has been escorted back to Yan City
331
00:25:37,860 --> 00:25:38,560
for a strict interrogation.
332
00:25:39,170 --> 00:25:40,320
As for Madam Yan,
333
00:25:41,130 --> 00:25:42,190
the assassins said that they didn't know her.
334
00:25:44,130 --> 00:25:45,110
She was never in contact with Wei Xianyu
335
00:25:45,580 --> 00:25:46,870
when she was in Liyang County.
336
00:25:47,930 --> 00:25:48,910
That rescue by the riverbank must have been
337
00:25:49,820 --> 00:25:52,110
a coincidental act by Madam Yan.
338
00:25:54,060 --> 00:25:54,590
Indeed.
339
00:25:56,210 --> 00:25:57,590
She isn't one of the Marquis of Nanyan's retainers.
340
00:25:59,100 --> 00:26:00,280
But there's something wrong
341
00:26:02,100 --> 00:26:03,080
about Madam Yan.
342
00:26:04,610 --> 00:26:06,110
She's not from Liyang County
343
00:26:06,540 --> 00:26:07,910
nor is she a non-local.
344
00:26:09,020 --> 00:26:11,480
It's like she appeared out of nowhere.
345
00:26:13,780 --> 00:26:14,870
Naturally, she's not a mortal.
346
00:26:15,970 --> 00:26:16,520
However,
347
00:26:17,890 --> 00:26:19,320
if she isn't one of the Marquis of Nanyan's retainers,
348
00:26:20,890 --> 00:26:22,430
why would she appear beside me?
349
00:26:24,860 --> 00:26:25,840
What is she up to?
350
00:26:27,610 --> 00:26:28,870

351
00:26:30,020 --> 00:26:33,760
that Sima Jiao is assisted by a master as well?
352
00:26:34,340 --> 00:26:37,110
Madam Yan, whom Sima Jiao has brought back from Liyang County,
353
00:26:38,580 --> 00:26:40,430
is a powerful demon lady.
354
00:26:44,130 --> 00:26:45,040
Is that true?
355
00:26:46,410 --> 00:26:47,590
Marquis, if you don't believe me,
356
00:26:47,820 --> 00:26:49,350
you can tell your spies
357
00:26:49,580 --> 00:26:50,870
to launch an investigation.

who were after His Majesty?
368
00:27:15,260 --> 00:27:16,910
Wei Xianyu and his underlings
369
00:27:17,100 --> 00:27:18,560
have all been taken into custody and are now under interrogation.
370
00:27:18,860 --> 00:27:19,950
Madam, please don't worry.
371
00:27:20,610 --> 00:27:21,760
Have you guys obtained any results?
372
00:27:22,740 --> 00:27:25,080
It'll be difficult to make him confess who the mastermind is.
373
00:27:25,820 --> 00:27:26,480
You see...
374
00:27:29,610 --> 00:27:31,040
So, there's someone else besides Wei Xianyu
375
00:27:31,890 --> 00:27:34,000
who's out to get His Majesty.
376
00:27:35,780 --> 00:27:37,240
If so, isn't His Majesty in danger?
377
00:27:37,930 --> 00:27:39,000
I don't know about that.
378
00:27:39,340 --> 00:27:40,950
Madam, please stop putting me on the spot.
379
00:27:42,500 --> 00:27:44,630
Now, Sima Jiao has no memory of his past.
380
00:27:45,450 --> 00:27:46,590
He's wary of me.
381
00:27:47,970 --> 00:27:50,190
If I deal with the mastermind on his behalf,
382
00:27:50,860 --> 00:27:52,150
not only can I protect him,
383
00:27:52,890 --> 00:27:54,630
but I can also dispel his doubts about me.
384
00:27:55,540 --> 00:27:56,080
Madam,
385
00:27:56,450 --> 00:27:58,280
please stop worrying about this.
386
00:27:58,370 --> 00:27:59,390
Please rest well.
387
00:27:59,890 --> 00:28:01,520
His Majesty was worried about your injury.
388
00:28:01,650 --> 00:28:03,910
He instructed the imperial physician to give you another diagnosis.
389
00:28:04,610 --> 00:28:05,110
No need for that.
390
00:28:05,130 --> 00:28:06,150
I'm fine.
391
00:28:06,370 --> 00:28:07,480
Madam, please do not decline us.
392
00:28:07,780 --> 00:28:09,760
It's better to be safe than sorry.
393
00:28:10,690 --> 00:28:11,390
Imperial Physician Yi.
394
00:28:16,860 --> 00:28:18,190
Greetings, Madam.
395
00:28:30,860 --> 00:28:31,560
Imperial Physician Yi,
396
00:28:31,690 --> 00:28:33,080
how is Madam's situation?
397
00:28:35,060 --> 00:28:36,190
Her wound is no longer of any concern.
398
00:28:36,860 --> 00:28:39,390
Madam, you were bleeding profusely when the assassin stabbed you.
399
00:28:40,020 --> 00:28:41,020
But now,
400
00:28:41,020 --> 00:28:42,170
it seems like it wasn't serious.
401
00:28:42,930 --> 00:28:43,870
It was
402
00:28:43,890 --> 00:28:45,190
merely a scratch.
403
00:28:45,890 --> 00:28:47,190
His Majesty is kicking up too much of a fuss over it.
404
00:28:47,690 --> 00:28:49,240
[Meijing, Liangchen]
That means His Majesty is concerned.
405
00:28:49,650 --> 00:28:51,110
And, Madam, although this is your first day here,
406
00:28:51,260 --> 00:28:53,080
His Majesty has already invited you to a palace banquet.
407
00:28:53,650 --> 00:28:54,910
His other consorts have never received such treatment before.
408
00:28:56,690 --> 00:28:57,560
His other consorts?
409
00:28:59,130 --> 00:29:00,280
Do not gossip about His Majesty.
410
00:29:04,130 --> 00:29:05,240
It's well as long as you're in good health.
411
00:29:05,860 --> 00:29:07,580
For now, it is enough to rely on dietary remedies
412
00:29:07,610 --> 00:29:08,630
to nourish your qi and blood.
413
00:29:09,500 --> 00:29:10,390
Thank you, Imperial Physician Yi.
414
00:29:17,300 --> 00:29:18,240
Liangchen, Meijing.
415
00:29:20,170 --> 00:29:21,520
Does His Majesty have a lot of consorts?
416
00:29:22,060 --> 00:29:23,000
Madam, only you
417
00:29:23,020 --> 00:29:24,950
and Noble Consort Si Xian are consorts, the daughter of Marquis of Nanyan.
418
00:29:25,650 --> 00:29:26,520
As for the rest of them,
419
00:29:26,520 --> 00:29:27,670
at most, they're Beauties.
420
00:29:28,860 --> 00:29:29,800
The rest of them?
421
00:29:31,650 --> 00:29:32,520
How many Beauties does he have?
422
00:29:32,890 --> 00:29:34,370
Madam, you don't need to hold them to heart.
423
00:29:34,610 --> 00:29:36,110
His Majesty brought you back personally.
424
00:29:36,410 --> 00:29:37,840
As for the Beauties, His Majesty was forced to take them
425
00:29:37,860 --> 00:29:39,800
as they were forced in by the powerful.
426
00:29:39,820 --> 00:29:40,720
They cannot compare to you.
427
00:29:41,410 --> 00:29:42,350
So what?
428
00:29:43,020 --> 00:29:44,390
He still made them a part of his imperial harem.
429
00:29:46,930 --> 00:29:48,080
He has forgotten about me,
430
00:29:48,170 --> 00:29:49,670
yet I still have to help him with everything I have.
431
00:29:51,170 --> 00:29:52,350
This is infuriating indeed.
432
00:29:53,930 --> 00:29:54,560
Your Majesty,
433
00:29:55,060 --> 00:29:55,910
I've sent the imperial physician
434
00:29:56,210 --> 00:29:57,630
to give her a diagnosis as per your instructions.
435
00:29:58,340 --> 00:30:00,080
Madam Yan's wound has indeed healed.
436
00:30:00,540 --> 00:30:01,110
Your Majesty.
437
00:30:01,540 --> 00:30:03,150
Are you sure you want to keep someone like her
438
00:30:03,170 --> 00:30:04,080
by your side?
439
00:30:04,690 --> 00:30:05,800
What if she has an ulterior motive?
440
00:30:07,340 --> 00:30:08,320
Speaking of ulterior motive,
441
00:30:09,170 --> 00:30:10,840
Marquis of Nanyan stayed at Chengming Hall
442
00:30:11,690 --> 00:30:12,720
until dawn, am I correct?
443
00:30:13,820 --> 00:30:14,720
Indeed.
444
00:30:15,540 --> 00:30:16,800
Your Majesty, his actions were offensive.
445
00:30:17,580 --> 00:30:18,840
Why aren't you infuriated by them?
446
00:30:22,580 --> 00:30:25,910
That'll spice things up for tonight's banquet.
447
00:30:30,780 --> 00:30:31,840
You truly have keen eyes.
448
00:30:32,450 --> 00:30:33,320
Keen eyes, huh?
449
00:30:33,780 --> 00:30:34,560
Madam Yan
450
00:30:34,860 --> 00:30:36,630
was stabbed by Wei Xianyu's bodyguard.
451
00:30:37,060 --> 00:30:37,910
But her wounds have healed
452
00:30:38,100 --> 00:30:40,040
in just a day.
453
00:30:41,340 --> 00:30:42,150
I heard
454
00:30:42,650 --> 00:30:45,040
that on the day Madam Yan went searching for Sima Jiao,
455
00:30:45,340 --> 00:30:46,190
the heavens displayed strange omens,
456
00:30:46,580 --> 00:30:47,480
and fierce winds swept across the land.
457
00:30:48,210 --> 00:30:49,150
Is that true?
458
00:30:49,650 --> 00:30:50,480
Indeed.
459
00:30:53,340 --> 00:30:56,190
Madam Yan is a demon lady indeed.
460
00:30:56,820 --> 00:30:57,350
My lord,
461
00:30:57,580 --> 00:30:58,280
there's one more thing.
462
00:30:58,820 --> 00:31:00,350
His Majesty has instructed Madam Yan
463
00:31:00,370 --> 00:31:01,560
to attend the palace banquet tonight.
464
00:31:01,860 --> 00:31:04,240
I'm sure His Majesty holds her in high regard.
465
00:31:07,300 --> 00:31:08,760
Keep a close eye on the palace.
466
00:31:09,300 --> 00:31:10,040
Report to me immediately
467
00:31:10,130 --> 00:31:11,520
if they make any movements.
468
00:31:12,500 --> 00:31:13,150
Yes, My lord.
469
00:31:18,690 --> 00:31:19,950
My lord, now, you believe
470
00:31:19,970 --> 00:31:21,390
that Liao Tingyan is a demon lady, right?
471
00:31:23,500 --> 00:31:24,590
That was unexpected indeed.
472
00:31:26,690 --> 00:31:29,390
Sima Jiao actually has a demon lady by his side.
473
00:31:30,210 --> 00:31:32,040
If so, doesn't that mean
474
00:31:32,130 --> 00:31:33,320
my daughter, Noble Consort Si Xian, is in danger?
475
00:31:33,820 --> 00:31:35,190
Therefore, our priority
476
00:31:35,450 --> 00:31:37,350
is to get rid of Madam Yan,
477
00:31:37,370 --> 00:31:38,350
who's been protecting His Majesty.
478
00:31:38,890 --> 00:31:40,480
We mustn't let her foil our plan.
479
00:31:41,820 --> 00:31:43,000
If so, the banquet tonight
480
00:31:44,020 --> 00:31:45,630
serves as an excellent opportunity for you, Madam.
481
00:31:47,060 --> 00:31:49,720
If you're able to get rid of Wei Xianyu
482
00:31:50,130 --> 00:31:51,240
and that demon lady,
483
00:31:52,650 --> 00:31:56,150
I shall join forces with you and achieve great deeds together.
484
00:32:33,260 --> 00:32:33,950
You may leave.
485
00:32:38,100 --> 00:32:41,280
At today's palace banquet, no state affairs shall be entertained.
486
00:32:41,930 --> 00:32:44,040
My dear subjects, please enjoy yourselves.
487
00:32:46,370 --> 00:32:48,350
Thank you, Your Majesty.
488
00:32:48,500 --> 00:32:50,390
Thank you, Your Majesty.
489
00:33:26,300 --> 00:33:28,560
Your Majesty, thank you for looking after me.
490
00:33:30,650 --> 00:33:33,350
That dish was annoying me.
491
00:33:39,500 --> 00:33:40,630
[Beauty Yu]
Why isn't Sister Si Xian here
492
00:33:40,650 --> 00:33:42,520
to crush her arrogance yet?
493
00:33:50,970 --> 00:33:51,670
As usual,
494
00:33:52,170 --> 00:33:54,240
I've prepared gifts for you all.
495
00:33:54,690 --> 00:33:55,520
I hope you all
496
00:33:56,260 --> 00:33:57,950
won't betray my sincerity.
497
00:33:59,930 --> 00:34:00,670
Chancellor.
498
00:34:02,020 --> 00:34:02,950
Yes, Your Majesty.
499
00:34:04,210 --> 00:34:05,000
I'll start with you.
500
00:34:05,890 --> 00:34:07,950
The views in Lingnan are impeccable.
501
00:34:08,450 --> 00:34:11,870
Are you willing to live there for some years to come?
502
00:34:12,660 --> 00:34:14,390
You're just banishing him.
503
00:34:19,300 --> 00:34:21,990
Your Majesty, please spare me!
504
00:34:22,300 --> 00:34:25,950
I dare not open the door of Chengming Hall
505
00:34:26,300 --> 00:34:27,990
and allow outsiders to enter again!
506
00:34:28,660 --> 00:34:29,470
What are you saying?
507
00:34:31,010 --> 00:34:33,120
Even if Marquis of Nanyan and Noble Consort Si Xian
508
00:34:33,490 --> 00:34:34,720
feigned illness and did not attend the banquet,
509
00:34:35,450 --> 00:34:36,760
you shouldn't just badmouth them
510
00:34:37,490 --> 00:34:39,030
by saying that they are outsiders.
511
00:34:39,620 --> 00:34:42,550
That's not what I mean! Your Majesty, please spare me!
512
00:34:43,010 --> 00:34:44,430
Your Majesty, please spare me!
513
00:34:46,180 --> 00:34:47,550
Your Majesty, please spare me!
514
00:34:48,300 --> 00:34:49,870
The Empress Dowager has arrived!
515
00:34:57,450 --> 00:34:59,120
Greetings, Your Majesty.
516
00:35:00,820 --> 00:35:02,030
You're already an adult.
517
00:35:03,090 --> 00:35:05,200
Are you sure you want to throw another childish tantrum?
518
00:35:13,560 --> 00:35:15,800
[Empress Dowager]
519
00:35:16,180 --> 00:35:17,800
The Sima Clan has already been vanquished.
520
00:35:18,450 --> 00:35:19,910
There's no way their souls still exist.
521
00:35:21,260 --> 00:35:22,990
I suppose only her appearance resembles her.
522
00:35:24,490 --> 00:35:26,240
I suppose this can be seen as an act to make up
523
00:35:27,260 --> 00:35:29,550
for Sima Jiao's regret in his past lifetime for not receiving any motherly love.
524
00:35:33,860 --> 00:35:36,120
This must be Madam Yan, whom His Majesty appointed not long ago.
525
00:35:40,050 --> 00:35:41,910
Why are you staring at me like that?
526
00:35:45,820 --> 00:35:46,430
Indeed.
527
00:35:47,890 --> 00:35:50,470
Your Majesty, when I saw your graceful
528
00:35:50,820 --> 00:35:51,600
and extraordinary presence,
529
00:35:51,890 --> 00:35:52,910
you reminded me
530
00:35:52,930 --> 00:35:54,800
of the goddess in the temple back at my hometown.
531
00:35:56,050 --> 00:35:56,800
Please pardon me.
532
00:35:58,970 --> 00:35:59,990
You do have a sweet tongue.
533
00:36:01,180 --> 00:36:02,720
No wonder His Majesty fell for you.
534
00:36:06,340 --> 00:36:08,510
I want to know
535
00:36:08,530 --> 00:36:11,550
where the goddess you mentioned is enshrined.
536
00:36:13,180 --> 00:36:14,870
I wish to visit her one day.
537
00:36:16,010 --> 00:36:17,390
Everyone, take your seats.
538
00:36:19,450 --> 00:36:20,800
Thank you, Your Majesty.
539
00:36:30,700 --> 00:36:31,800
I don't know
540
00:36:33,660 --> 00:36:35,030
where your hometown is.
541
00:36:37,450 --> 00:36:38,950
My hometown is in Shu.
542
00:36:41,180 --> 00:36:42,760
If so, why did you head to Liyang County?
543
00:36:47,180 --> 00:36:49,840
Madam, you have to answer Her Majesty's questions.
544
00:36:53,260 --> 00:36:55,720
My mother and I have raised silkworms to make a living since young.
545
00:36:56,410 --> 00:36:57,680
There was a severe drought last year.
546
00:36:58,890 --> 00:37:00,280
My mother became depressed and ill.
547
00:37:02,820 --> 00:37:04,350
In the end, she passed away from her illness.
548
00:37:05,820 --> 00:37:08,950
So I had no choice but to take along the neighbor's daughter
549
00:37:09,860 --> 00:37:10,840
and make a living together.
550
00:37:13,820 --> 00:37:15,640
We only managed to settle down in Liyang County.
551
00:37:18,180 --> 00:37:19,200
I see.
552
00:37:19,780 --> 00:37:21,240
Such a poor girl.
553
00:37:24,260 --> 00:37:26,120
Since you've joined the palace,
554
00:37:27,010 --> 00:37:28,760
you just need to serve His Majesty well.
555
00:37:29,930 --> 00:37:31,200
We won't let you suffer again.
556
00:37:31,820 --> 00:37:32,390
Yes, Your Majesty.
557
00:37:43,570 --> 00:37:45,840
Your Majesty, since this is a fine occasion,
558
00:37:46,220 --> 00:37:48,070
[Beauty Tong]
let me offer you a toast.
559
00:37:54,090 --> 00:37:57,070
I suppose there's no escaping poisoned wine in the palace, huh?
560
00:38:04,220 --> 00:38:05,510
Now, it has turned into fine liquor.
561
00:38:06,140 --> 00:38:09,120
Sima Jiao, you're lucky to have a gem like me around.
562
00:38:09,700 --> 00:38:10,550
You should be grateful.
563
00:38:22,860 --> 00:38:24,200
Demonic energy? Sima Jiao!
564
00:38:31,340 --> 00:38:32,200
It's You Yan.
565
00:38:32,620 --> 00:38:33,350
Arrest her.
566
00:38:33,490 --> 00:38:34,120
Yes, Your Majesty.
567
00:38:36,410 --> 00:38:37,950
Why did she do that?
568
00:38:38,450 --> 00:38:39,490
Why did she do that?
569
00:38:39,490 --> 00:38:40,760
Why did she try to assassinate him out of nowhere?
570
00:38:42,780 --> 00:38:43,510
Are you okay?
571
00:38:51,260 --> 00:38:54,120
Your Majesty, this is the Poria chicken soup you love the most.
572
00:38:54,570 --> 00:38:56,320
Her Majesty made it herself.
573
00:38:56,450 --> 00:38:57,800
It took her several hours to prepare it.
574
00:38:59,410 --> 00:39:00,280
All of you may leave.
575
00:39:00,660 --> 00:39:01,200
Yes, Your Majesty.
576
00:39:02,570 --> 00:39:03,390
Thank you, Mother.
577
00:39:04,930 --> 00:39:05,840
I was negligent in my duty.
578
00:39:06,090 --> 00:39:07,070
Sorry for the scare.
579
00:39:09,820 --> 00:39:10,800
It's not your fault.
580
00:39:11,570 --> 00:39:13,640
You didn't even touch your chopsticks
581
00:39:14,340 --> 00:39:15,600
during the palace banquet.
582
00:39:18,050 --> 00:39:19,390
But that Madam Yan?
583
00:39:20,410 --> 00:39:21,680
She had a great appetite.
584
00:39:25,490 --> 00:39:26,990
She never gets upset
585
00:39:28,180 --> 00:39:29,390
as long as there's good food.
586
00:39:33,180 --> 00:39:35,280
Do not dwell on the endless matters beyond this life.
587
00:39:35,820 --> 00:39:38,990
For now, let us savor the current life.
588
00:39:40,410 --> 00:39:41,680
She's an intelligent woman.
589
00:39:42,180 --> 00:39:43,390
I was perplexed at the start.
590
00:39:44,220 --> 00:39:45,510
Before, no matter how I tried to slip someone into your arms,
591
00:39:45,530 --> 00:39:46,910
you just wouldn't accept them.
592
00:39:47,180 --> 00:39:49,840
But now, you actually brought a woman back of your own accord.
593
00:39:51,260 --> 00:39:54,350
After seeing her today, I can tell that she's truly remarkable.
594
00:39:59,340 --> 00:40:00,470
She's indeed different from the rest.
595
00:40:05,620 --> 00:40:07,120
If you truly fancy her,
596
00:40:08,530 --> 00:40:09,550
why don't you appoint her as the empress?
597
00:40:14,140 --> 00:40:15,160
I don't fancy her.
598
00:40:16,660 --> 00:40:17,990
You're my son.
599
00:40:19,220 --> 00:40:20,870
Do you think I can't tell the relationship
600
00:40:21,140 --> 00:40:22,320
between you two?
601
00:40:22,340 --> 00:40:22,990
Mother.
602
00:40:28,490 --> 00:40:29,390
According to ancestral rites,
603
00:40:30,370 --> 00:40:32,910
one must appoint an empress before performing the worship ritual.
604
00:40:34,260 --> 00:40:37,120
You have to appoint an empress as soon as possible.
605
00:40:38,140 --> 00:40:40,470
I saw how she conducted herself today.
606
00:40:41,700 --> 00:40:43,910
She can definitely handle the imperial harem without an issue.
607
00:40:46,090 --> 00:40:49,260
What's wrong? Are you worried about her?
608
00:40:51,700 --> 00:40:54,240
I once suspected that she was on Marquis of Nanyan's side.
609
00:40:55,340 --> 00:40:56,840
But she risked her life to rescue me on numerous occasions.
610
00:40:57,930 --> 00:40:59,430
She should be unrelated to Marquis of Nanyan.
611
00:40:59,740 --> 00:41:00,720
It's just that there remains
612
00:41:03,010 --> 00:41:04,350
an unsolved mystery about her.
613
00:41:08,010 --> 00:41:08,950
What unsolved mystery?
614
00:41:11,090 --> 00:41:12,240
Actually, she has been
615
00:41:15,660 --> 00:41:17,280
appearing in my dreams often since young.
616
00:41:18,570 --> 00:41:19,870
Is that actually true?
617
00:41:23,410 --> 00:41:25,120
If so, I'm sure Heaven
618
00:41:26,490 --> 00:41:29,840
has led you two together.
619
00:41:35,180 --> 00:41:36,600
I've never believed in the existence of Heaven.
620
00:41:43,860 --> 00:41:45,600
Given the current circumstances,
621
00:41:46,180 --> 00:41:48,840
I understand why you're being cautious.
622
00:41:50,140 --> 00:41:51,280
But in my opinion,
623
00:41:53,930 --> 00:41:54,950
sometimes,
624
00:41:56,490 --> 00:41:58,640
you have to open your heart and feel everything around you.
625
00:42:28,140 --> 00:42:28,870
Kill him!
626
00:42:29,140 --> 00:42:30,070
I do not kill.
627
00:42:30,450 --> 00:42:32,550
If he doesn't die, you'll die instead!
628
00:42:32,890 --> 00:42:35,120
Even more people will die in the days to come!
629
00:42:35,450 --> 00:42:36,600
Pull out the sword.
630
00:42:51,300 --> 00:42:53,200
Do you remember what I taught you?
631
00:42:55,410 --> 00:42:56,120
Do it.
632
00:42:57,450 --> 00:42:58,990
Why must you force me to do this?
633
00:43:03,450 --> 00:43:06,280
Boss, why are you trying to scam me here?
634
00:43:12,450 --> 00:43:13,030
No.
635
00:43:26,890 --> 00:43:27,950
I dreamt about her again.
636
00:43:30,800 --> 00:43:33,080
[Ziquan Palace]
637
00:43:40,740 --> 00:43:41,910
Greetings, Your Majesty.
638
00:43:43,570 --> 00:43:44,800
Dear, how's your wound?
639
00:43:47,180 --> 00:43:49,390
The imperial physician already examined me. I'm fine.
640
00:43:52,890 --> 00:43:55,910
Why hasn't the wound healed as quickly this time,
641
00:43:56,890 --> 00:43:58,030
unlike before?
642
00:44:00,260 --> 00:44:01,800
Fairies aren't omnipotent, you know?
643
00:44:05,050 --> 00:44:06,550
In tales of the supernatural,
644
00:44:07,860 --> 00:44:09,350
fairies always love all living beings.
645
00:44:11,620 --> 00:44:14,390
But you're only devoted to me.
646
00:44:16,860 --> 00:44:17,910
You're devoted to one individual.
647
00:44:24,050 --> 00:44:25,160
Who exactly are you?
648
00:44:26,700 --> 00:44:27,680
