Dear Herbal Lord Season 2

Episode 4

It smells so good!

Here you are.

Thank you!

Booth keeper.

OK.

I'd like two bowls of syrup.

OK.

A moment, please.

Hello, sir.

Would you like a bowl of it?

It tastes so good.

Why don't you drink it?

Qingxun,

about what happened previously,

I apologize to you on behalf of my father.

It is not your fault.

If you didn't mention it, I wouldn't recall it.

Qingyun, do you know that

next month,

it will be time for us to get married as agreed.

Mr. Xiao,

I want to get married with the herbal lord.

You know it, right?

Qingyun.

Have you thought it over?

Since such being the case,

I will fulfill your wish.

Really?

Really.

Mr. Xiao,

are you angry?

I

am not.

How could I be angry about

such a thing?

But,

I am a bit upset.

However,

if I can see you be happy,

I am willing to give up on you.

Thank you!

Why are you wearing such a look on your face?

Qingyun,

I have told you that

in Daxing City, I, Xiao Ziming

can be said to be a handsome guy.

Don't you agree?

Look at these girls in the street.

They all want to pursue me.

You

need not take this matter to heart.

You are such a nice guy.

You will surely come across a better girl.

I certainly will.

Then,

can we still be friends?

Of course we can.

Though we can't become husband and wife,

we can still be good friends for sure.

I am glad to hear that.

Then, let me tell you.

If the herbal lord dares

to treat you badly in the coming days,

you should come to see me for help.

He is very nice to me

and won't treat me badly.

Your Lordship.

Your Lordship.

Glad to see you.

I have things to attend to,

I will be off first.

Well,

I will entrust you

with Qingyun.

You need not bother about it.

Qingyun.

Didn't you promise me that

you will put away

the festive lanterns I gave you？

Yes, I did.

I will remember that.

OK. I am leaving.

Your Lordship.

Please taste the sweet porridge?

I'd rather not.

Why do you smell like vinegar again?

Your Lordship, why are you walking so fast?

You want to fly the festive lanterns, right?

I said I would store them up.

I didn't say I would fly them.

Xuhuai.

Give me the ignitor.

My Lord.

Which one shall we fly?

Let's fly this one.

It doesn't matter. It's all right.

Well.

People sometimes have a slip of hand.

It was burnt by accident.

Let's try again.

Which one shall we fly?

That one.

Go for it.

Ur...

Your Lordship,

is it possible that you can't fly the lantern?

How about?

You can do it for sure this time.

Ra...

Rabbit.

Let's go.

Where shall we go?

The lanterns are all burnt up.

I will buy new ones for you.

Let's go.

Poor rabbit.

I want this, too.

And the blue one.

That one.

Just take all of them.

No, I won't.

I just want these ones.

Your Lordship.

Let me take you to fly the lanterns.

Don't you like taking them home and storing them up?

But,

you like burning them, right?

These are my gifts to you.

You can take them home

or put them away.

Miss Jiang.

Let me help you hold them.

Your Lordship.

I will definitely keep them well.

Let's go.

Mind your step, sir.

Come on.

Here you are.

Thank you, sir!

That place is so lively.

Such aroma is coming from there.

My lady, don't look at it.

Lyuluo.

What place is that?

You can't visit that place.

Why?

Because it is a place for drinking merry-making wine.

Merry-making wine?

Is it made of merry?

Then it must be good wine.

I want to go there.

Your lordship, I will take you with me.

Do you really want to take me there?

My lady.

What did you say?

Lyuluo, don't worry.

Be a good girl. I will also take you with me.

Xuhuai, you will go, too.

You will also go.

OK.

Since you want to go there,

I will take you there.

If you go to that place alone later,

I will be worried a lot.

My lady.

Though you are wearing the men's clothes,

you are still a girl.

Lyuluo.

Please go back to tell Lord Jiang

that after Miss Jiang and I see the whole night market,

I will escort her back.

Don't worry.

Xuhuai.

Yes.

Escort Miss Lyuluo back.

Miss Lyuluo,

after you.

Just go.

Welcome, Mr. Zhang.

OK. OK.

Mr. Li.

Are you leaving?

Please come again.

Sir, you are so good-looking.

Don't leave.

Young mister,

you don't look familiar.

Are you here for the first time?

Come on.

I will

introduce some new girls to you.

Girls, come to greet the guests.

Sir.

Whether you like plump girls or slim girls, you will be satisfied.

We are only here to listen to some music.

Please find us a quiet room.

Leave, all of you.

You two don't look like ordinary people at first sight.

Whether you want to listen to music or have tea,

we will satisfy you.

Come. This way, please.

Come on.

This way.

Come on.

What is the matter?

Come here.

Some people are fighting.

A woman is crying all along.

She sounds so miserable.

There is also the clap.

It is such a fierce fight!

You misheard.

No, I didn't.

The fight is real.

You misheard.

No. Listen to it carefully.

I am Yan. Greetings to you, misters.

You are playing the music so beautifully.

Thank you for your praise, sir.

What place does this tune come from?

Why haven't I heard it before?

I am from the red fire tribe.

This is the ballad from my hometown.

Red fire tribe

lives northwest of Daxing City.

Since the ancient times,

it has been trading with Daxing City.

However, in recent years,

there has been unrest in the red fire tribe.

Misters, I feel shamed about this.

But I was at the end of my rope.

I had to work here to make a living.

What happened to you?

My parents died when I was still a child.

I lived with my beloved one.

We lived a humdrum life together.

One day, out of a sudden,

my beloved was taken away by the soldiers.

Since then, I have never seen him.

I entrusted people to ask about his whereabouts everywhere.

Then I found out that he

had been taken to Yuwen Ling, the prince of our red fire tribe,

to be sacrificed for his cultivation.

Cultivation?

It is said that the prince of our red fire tribe

has been obsessed with cultivation to become an immortal.

But he doesn't conduct cultivation in a decent way.

He uses living people as sacrificial offerings

to improve his cultivation base.

Now I am working here lowering myself

to find ways to rescue my beloved.

Woad.

Woad.

What is happening to you?

Don't panic, sir.

This mister

drank the ginger-wine tea we served.

It is made based on the unique recipe of our place.

It boosts the liver heat and then gives birth to chill.

I feel so hot.

But...

But...

Your Lordship.

I feel so hot.

Your Lordship.

Put me down.

Your Lordship.

Put me down.

Your Lordship.

Woad.

Your Lordship.

Behave yourself.

I want...

Your Lordship.

Woad!

Woad!

Are you all right?

Why...why am I in water?

You fell into water out of carelessness

as you walked just now.

So that it is.

Your Lordship.

Why is your face so red?

The water is too cold.

The coldness made my face go red.

Why are you hugging me?

Let go of me.

Don't move.

You are taking advantage of me.

You are a philanderer.

Don't move.

If you dare to move again,

I will do the bad thing that you accused me of.

You got fresh with me.

Elder brother.

Why are you drinking so much wine?

Ya.

Why are you here?

Stop drinking. You are already drunk.

It is good to be drunk.

At least, I won't think about her so much.

Look at what you are like now.

I want to drink more.

Leave me alone.

No matter what I do,

Qingyun

doesn't care at all.

As I see it,

Jiang Qingxun is a monster.

Don't talk nonsense!

Even you have lost your sanity

under her spell.

Fine.

Let's have a bet.

You go fetch a personal item of Jiang Qingyun

and then take it to the high priest.

You will know I am right after giving it a test.

If you don't believe me,

you should believe the high priest.

No, I can't do that.

Why can't you do that, elder brother?

Elder brother, just think about it.

If Jiang Qingyun is not a monster,

it will be fine.

If she is really a monster,

she will do harm not only to you and me,

but also to all the people of Daxing City.

Elder brother.

Elder brother.

Father, Taoist Buyan is here.

Why is he here?

Tell him that

I am feeling unwell

and ask him to leave.

Why?

There is no special reason.

Hurry to do it.

Lord Xiao, are you talking about me?

Master Buyan.

How could they do this?

How could they not inform me of your arrival?

Please forgive me.

Go fetch Master Buyan a cup of tea.

Why are you still standing here?

Didn't you ask me to tell him to leave just now?

What are you mumbling?

Hurry up!

What a slow-witted girl!

Come on.

Come, come.

You see my daughter

is spoiled in ordinary days.

Master Buyan, please don't mind her manners.

I dare not blame you, Lord Xiao.

I am afraid that you are blaming my master deep inside.

I dare not.

Master Buyan,

you thought too much.

If so,

please go on with our previous plan, Lord Xiao

to bring down the herbal lord.

About our previous plan,

let's give it more thoughts.

Why?

After the Herbal Lord Valley Incident,

though the city governor didn't say anything,

he became suspicious.

In secret,

he moved away a lot of the force of our Xiao Family.

Thus, we suffered great damage this time.

If we continue with our plan now,

it will go against my interests greatly.

Lord Xiao.

It is not as serious as you said.

Have you forgotten the red fire tribe?

The red fire tribe?

What do you mean, Master Buyan?

I used to be in charge of the sales and transportation of

all the medicinal herbs of Daxing City.

But

now...

Now...

Though the city governor has deprived you of the transport right,

your friendly ties with the red fire tribe

can't be cut off easily.

In the final analysis,

we have to rely on you

to establish contact with the red fire tribe.

Master Buyan, you flattered me.

My master has made the arrangements.

When the people of the red fire tribe enter the city,

you just need to receive them

as you used to.

By then,

we can eradicate Chu Zhimo

by the red fire tribe's hand.

Did the high priest blame me?

Lord Xiao, you only need to handle well the current matter.

About other matters,

my master has corresponding plans.

As you wish.

Forego the formalities, all of you.

The people of the red fire tribe came to visit us suddenly.

Superficially, they claimed that

they are here to enhance their ties with us.

But we are not clear about

their hidden intention.

Therefore,

I want you to make preparations early

in case that they harbor evil intent

and will disturb the peace of our people.

By the way,

in the past, the Xiao Family

has been handling the matters concerning the red fire tribe.

So, Lord Xiao should also take charge of

the reception of the red fire tribe this time.

Why isn't Lord Xiao here today?

Report to you, Your Excellency.

My father is making self-examination for the Suijia Village thing.

He is afraid that he is not fit for this work.

This affair

concerns whether our Daxing City will lose face.

My father felt that he is not qualified for this job.

So he decided to stay away from it.

Your Lordship,

please order other people to undertake the reception.

It is strange.

Since when

did Lord Xiao come to know his place?

Lord Jiang.

About what happened previously,

my father really did something wrong.

But Lord Jiang,

you need not keep picking on him for that.

Let's talk about the present only.

Let's forget the past.

Your Lordship, please don't make it hard for my father.

Based on what you said,

Lord Xiao is still blaming me, right?

Our Xiao Family dares not.

I am glad to hear that.

Over all the past years,

we have witnessed Lord Xiao's contributions

to Daxing City.

Though his doings are kind of defective,

he is still the master of a prestigious family

and a person I respect.

I hope he won't let me down.

Mr. Xiao, please tell Lord Xiao that

he is

still the mainstay of Daxing City.

I thank you on behalf of my father, Your Lordship.

To serve Daxing City

is the responsibility of our Xiao Family.

We will work to the best of our ability

so that we can make amends for our faults.

I hope your Xiao Family

can really do things as your father said.

The red fire tribe is paying us a visit now.

This is the first time for me to receive the foreign envoys

since I took office.

I hope all of you

can give me a hand.

As you wish, Your Lordship.

We will spare no effort to serve you.

These festive lanterns are so lovely.

Your taste is bad.

These lanterns are so countrified.

My dear Ziming

buys very beautiful lanterns for me every time.

Jiang Qingyun.

You are awake?

You finally woke up.

You woad plant!

If you hadn't make any noise,

I would have been able to sleep longer.

Why have you been sleeping for so long this time?

I don't know.

I have been dizzy and sleepy all the time.

I can't sleep well.

I also feel tired.

Come to massage my shoulder.

Apply more strength.

Right.

It makes me feel so good.

I will tell you one thing.

Please don't be sacred.

What is it?

You are going to get married.

Are you happy?

That is all?

I have already come to know it.

Don't stop. Go on with the massage.

How come you know?

Dear Ziming and I

became engaged when we were still kids.

Think about it.

It is time for us to get married soon.

It has been long since I saw him last time.

I am wondering

how things have been going with him these days?

Have you been getting along well with him?

As for Mr. Xiao,

I have turned him down for you.

He agreed to give up on you

and to be just your friend.

What?

Friend?

What is wrong?

What is wrong?

How dare you ask me this?

Do you believe that I will cut you into pieces?

What did I do wrong again?

Since my childhood,

I have been in love with Ziming only.

How could you force him to give up our love

and to be just a friend to me

while I was sleeping?

Get my husband-to-be back for me.

Didn't you ask me to pursue the herbal lord?

Why do you want to get married with Mr. Xiao now?

Right.

I want to get married with the herbal lord.

Why have I forgotten it?

Jiang Qingyun,

what is wrong with you?

I don't know.

Something slipped my mind.

I won't talk with you.

I won't talk.

I am so sleepy.

Jiang Qingyun,

I will try my best to get married with the herbal lord

before your spiritual sense disappears.

Because I have promised you.

I will definitely help you fulfill your wish.

I am a woad plant that keeps her promise.

So you can leave resting assured.

You can trust me.

The love soul is going back to the immortal grass.

Jiang Qingyun has begun to lose

her love for Yun Shuang.

Let's wait and see.

My lady.

My lady.

My lady, where are you going?

I will go to see the herbal lord.

Wait for me, please.

Strengthen the force deployment inside Daxing City

to make sure that nothing will go wrong

during the visit of the red fire tribe.

Yes, Your Lordship!

Stop looking！

Take the medicine.

I am fine.

You are fine?

Recently, you have been unable to sleep and eat well

for the affair regarding the red fire tribe.

You are spitting more blood now.

Don't listen to Xuhuai's nonsense.

I don't need Xuhuai to tell me.

Feel your pulse by yourself.

Tell me.

Why are you tiring your body like this?

Do you still want to

spend your life with my junior apprentice-sister?

Do you want her to be a widow

or to get remarried with Xiao Ziming?

My body...

You can't continue toiling with your mind like this.

Your illness

requires you to have a good rest.

Your Lordship, Miss Jiang is here.

She said she wanted to see you.

Show her in.

Yes, sir.

By the way,

you need not stop her from now on.

If I am not here,

just let her in first.

Besides,

she likes the osmanthus cakes.

So ask the chef to prepare some for her.

Why are you still standing here dumbly?

Your Lordship.

Yes, sir.

Your Lordship.

Your Lordship, when will you get married with me?

Leave. Leave.

Stop looking.

Mr. Xuhuai.

My young lady just rushed in hastily.

Will His Lordship blame her?

Of course not.

His Lordship has ordered that

nobody should stop Miss Jiang.

She should be allowed to do anything

as she likes.

Did His Lordship really say so?

But I heard the gate guard said that

His Lordship never allows any outsider to

enter his chamber.

You are silly.

Miss Jiang is

going to be the wife of His Lordship.

How can she be an outsider?

Tell me, when will you marry me?

About this,

we can't act hastily.

Why?

Isn't it good for us to get married earlier?

Yes, it is good.

But it is an important matter in our lives.

We can't handle it carelessly.

Please do as I said.

Be a good girl.

Just wait for me for some more time, OK?

No, I can't.

I am in a hurry.

Well.

you mustn't dirty the lanterns

I gave you last time.

I have kept them well.

I put them in the cabinet.

I am sure they won't become dirty.

Then when will you marry me?

Well.

I almost finished

the medicinal herbs you gave me last time.

If they are helpful for you,

I will gather more for you.

That will be good.

When will you marry me?

After I gather the herbs, you will marry me.

Can you promise me?

Wait,

wait for some more time, please.

No. I want to get married with you as early as possible.

Tell me.

Why are you tiring your body like this?

Do you still want to

spend your life with my junior apprentice-sister?

Do you want her to be a widow

or to get remarried with Xiao Ziming?

Your Lordship.

How long must I wait?

Could you please marry me soon?

I just can't wait anymore.

Xuhuai.

Is the dessert ready?

I will go urge the chef.

Dessert?

What dessert?

You name it, I have it.

Your Lordship.

You treat me the best.

When will you marry me?

Will you marry me after I finish the dessert?
