Court Lady

Ep13

Consort Yan, you do care about Directress Fu.

King Zhou fell ill not long ago,

so I prayed for him in front of the Buddha.

I promised that if he recovered,

I would care for a patient myself

to pay back the benevolence of the Buddha.

It is such a coincidence that

as soon as King Zhou recovered,

Directress Fu came down with an illness.

So, we can see that

we must keep the promises

we make when praying before the Buddha.

Now that you have taken her to your place,

you shall take good care of her.

I understand.

Then, please excuse me.

Your Majesty.

This is the list sent by
the Director of the Palace Garden Service

The ladies listed here
are all dignified and beautiful.

I've had someone read their faces.
All of them will bring good luck.

Take it away.

Your Majesty.

The Crown Princess
just got married to the prince.

If we introduce another woman
to the Crown Prince so soon,

it would not only embarrass the princess

but also bring distress

to the prince.

As for the Eastern Palace,

we can worry about it later.

Then what about King Han's Mansion?

Queen Han's younger brother
just died fighting for Tang.

How can I bring her more distress at such time?

It is so benevolent of you.

Your Majesty is like the moon
in the night that shines her light on all of us.

But has anyone ever put himself in your position?

I only hope for peace and harmony
in the harem and the royal family.

Only in this way can we set people's minds at rest.

Wei Song,

send the White Jade Ruyi I just received

to Queen Han right away.

Yes.

Too much grief

brings damages to one's liver.

I'll also grant her a bottle of
newly developed pellets

by the imperial physicians
to nourish her lungs and liver.

With a weak body,
she already finds it hard to bear children.

If her liver and lungs get damaged,

how can we expect her
to bear the children of King Han?

Time to take the medicine.

Here.

Be good.

You won't drink or eat.

Do you really plan to starve yourself to death?

It was all my fault.

I am the one that caused Chumu's death.

It was because of me that

he went to fight in the war.

So, you want to kill yourself as well?

Your Highness!

I didn't save you from the jaws of death

just to let you commit suicide for him.

You owe me your life.

If you still wouldn't eat or drink like this,

I'll feed you like that for every meal.

Can you be gentler next time
when you apply the plaster?

I saved your life.

You should be grateful.

I knew it.

You saved me on purpose.

You are right.

I want the nameplate you have

with the title of General of Pacification on it.

We got a report!

Desperado Nine has been found.

How many boats?

No more than 15.

Those beasts

not only loot the cargo boats.

They would also lock people in the cabin

and burn them alive!

Who are those people?

They are pirates.

Aren't you pirates as well?

Careful what you say.

I always talk like this.

What can you do to me?

I...

Fang Ziyan,

we shall see how it plays out.

Kill them!

Go!

Kill them!

Don't be frightened.

Our boss has never lost a battle on the sea.

You pirates also fight each other?

Of course.

Are you insane?

Business is always a grubby affair.

What are you doing?

Changing the medicine for you.

By the way, I'm Ma Hainiu.

I don't care.

Get your hands off me!

You are really strong.

What are you doing?

Get away from me!

Why are you yelling?

I don't bite.

Get up and drink the decoction.

Time to take the medicine.

Here, give it to me. I'll drink it.

You've finally come around?

Chumu is watching me from up there.

He wouldn't want to see me
indulge in depression.

I want to ask for something, Your Highness.

You want to visit Sheng Chumu's tomb?

Yes.

You have always been stubborn.

I have already guessed that.

I've made some preparations.

You can go.

Sister, you look so much better.

In a good mood, of course, I look good as well.

Her Highness hasn't had her period for months.

Are you pregnant?

Keep it down! We don't know yet.

Have you called in doctors to have a look?

The doctor said that
it's only less than two months.

So, it's still too early to be sure of it.

But I'm very likely to be pregnant.

What great news this is!

This is the first time
that I have caught so many fish!

This suggests you can get what you wish for.

This is also the first time for you to come here

without a lot of burden on your mind.

Instead, your face is full of joy.

The Crown Princess

is likely to be pregnant.

Really?

Congratulations!

Now, I kind of understand

how my grandfather and my mother felt

when I was born.

I am the eldest child in the family,

born in Kaiqing Hall.

Given that, my grandfather named me Kaiqing.

This name

carries the great joy
and expectations he had for me.

When your child is born,

you can then think about what to name him.

The priority now is to handle the fish.

Sure.

I'll go gather some wood for you.

Don't they say that
a nobleman stays clear of the kitchen?

As friends,

we should share happiness and woe.

The happiness here is to grill the fish
and the woe is to gather wood.

We shall do them together.

No wonder you are the Crown Prince.

You can always justify yourself.

Chumu is lying in there.

After the chaotic battle,

we couldn't find his body.

So, this is only a cenotaph.

I didn't expect that

even his body couldn't return to his homeland.

Your Highness,

I want to stay here alone

for a while.

Of course.

Sheng Chumu, Late General of Pacification

Chumu,

you told me to wait for you to come back.

So, I will always be waiting for you.

I made you a promise

and I will keep it my whole life.

I will never retract my words.

I miss my big brother so much.

I know.

Hadn't he forced me to study

and practice my swordplay skills,

I would still be the coxcomb

that people looked down upon.

I know.

I still hate him for being so harsh on me.

I know.

Are these the only words you can say?

But I don't know what else to say to console you.

I didn't realize

I am so bad with words until now.

I don't even know what to say
to make you feel better.

But I will always be there

for you.

Be there for me.

This will be enough for me.

Boss,

the Thousand Year Sect is loaded with wealth.

Look at this!

The fight between you pirates...

So much money!

...is truly the most lucrative business.

Sheng,

do you want to be tied up again?

You are just bullying me because I'm outnumbered.

Do you have the guts to fight me alone?

Sure! Come on!

Shut up, both of you.

Go look at the captives.

Yes, Boss.

Rest assured. It's not poisonous.

If I were to kill you,

I could just throw you into the sea.

What wine is it?

Tribute wine.

You robbed it?

Give it back if you don't want it.

It doesn't matter why you saved me.

You know what,

I am the General of Pacification of Tang,

and I will never join you in your evil deeds.

I would rather die

than join you in your evil deeds.

My father was a county deputy governor

who worked cautiously and conscientiously.

He had a falcon

which everyone praised.

You were the son of a government officer.

How did you end up being a pirate?

There was a bigwig

who wanted my father's falcon.
But my father refused him.

So, he murdered my parents.

To make sure there's no one left in the family,

he shot an arrow in my chest.

I fell into the river

and the old boss of the Four Seas Sect saved me.

How clever of you to pretend to be pitiful.

You sound like a poor man.

What about you?

How did you fall into the sea?

The same as you.

I was being hunted.

Hunted by whom?

It seemed that

I was being hunted by the rebels.

But in fact,

Lu was using the rebels to get rid of me.

Lu?

Is he a general?

How do you know?

The surname of the man who destroyed my family

is Lu as well.

Lu Yunji.

I saw you cleaning out other pirates

and thought you were trying
to become a local despot.

But now I know.

You are building your leverage to
get amnesty from the government.

How smart you are.

I was just wondering

why you happened to save me

from the sea

right after I fell off the cliff.

Now think about it,

you must have kept an eye on

the rebels in Anxi Gorge from the very start

and moved all of your boats there,

trying to find the chance
to make some contributions.

No wonder you saved me.

If you want to get amnesty,

you need to find the right way.

You need a person with high status

to pull some strings for you, right?

So,

are you willing to help me?

Aren't you afraid that
I will root you out after I get back?

I saved your life.

No general is merciful.

Do you think I will show mercy to you?

I am tired of being a pirate.

Now I want to live

as an upright man.

Of course, I need to take some risks.

If you can root out all the pirates

and return peace to the sea,

this is truly a good thing

for Tang.

Sheng Chumu,

I'll be expecting you.

They returned home in triumph!

Indeed!

How impressive!

-General Lu.
-Really?

It's him!

-General Lu!
-How valiant you are!

How heroic you are, General Lu!

You are such a hero, General Lu!

He killed our big brother

and gets to enjoy all the compliments.

This is so unfair.

Rashness can only jeopardize things.

Sooner or later,

we will get even with them for our brother.

Father.

My little girl.

You are finally home.

I am back.

My sweet girl.

You only greeted our father.

What about me?

Brother,

have you brought back any gifts for me?

You only think about gifts.

Get in here.

You really have?

Guess what it is?

A pearl cape for you.

It took me quite some effort.

Brother, you are the best.

So, in the future,

will you still talk back to me?

For the sake of the pearl cape,

I won't talk back to you anymore.

Father, are you hungry?

I'll get something for you to eat.

Good.

Don't forget me.

No food for you.

Tomorrow, you shall

go to visit Duke of Lu with me.

Understood.

You are right, Father.

We still need to play nice

in front of others.

Play nice?

Nothing in Chang'an

can escape His Majesty's attention.

You haven't had a look at the embroidery

rewarded to Duke of Cai.

I am not feeling well.

As for the reward for the duke,

you can check it for me.

Understood.

Your Highness.

Directress Fu,

why do you look thinner?

I...

I came down with an illness before.

Her Majesty granted me some nourishing pellets

which are the best for women to nourish our body.

Shuangxi,

go and get some for Directress Fu.

Yes.

I don't deserve this.

You and I have known each other before we got here.

Speaking of this,

I shouldn't have picked on

the sewing office before.

I was in a bad mood.

But now...

In the future,

we should get along with each other.

It must not be easy for you, either.

Thank you for your understanding.

Duke of Cai returned with a grand victory.

His Majesty has been in a great mood thanks to him.

Lu Yunji

is now enjoying the peak of his life.

Does anyone still remember

the dead ones he stepped upon to get here?

Her Majesty

seems to be very satisfied
with his daughter as well.

He is now at the zenith of his power,

with ever-growing strength.

If Lu Yingying

is given the title of Lady of Excellence,

she will be granted even more rewards.

Mansion of Duke of Lu

I feel so sorry for General Sheng!

He conquered the Nine Tower City,

which was already a significant contribution.

I told him to have some rest
for a few days in the barrack,

but he was so young and hot-blooded.

He was determined
to wipe out the rebels in Anxi Gorge.

He neglected my repeated dissuasion

and left with a troop.

As a result,

he never came back.

My big brother was not such a reckless man.

What do you mean by it?

He knew the risks in Anxi Gorge,

then why did he still go there?

He must be forced by someone.

Who could force him?

Whoever the Commander in Chief is.

You...

Duke of Lu,

I couldn't bring your son back safely.

I feel so ashamed and uneasy

from the bottom of my heart.

Duke of Cai,

my son Sheng Chumu

destroyed nine cities in a row.

Even if he was a little reckless,

he died for the sake of our country.

He was a hero!

However, Duke of Cai,

remember,

God is always watching us.

He knows everything we do.

Duke of Cai,

if you have no guilt in your heart,

why are you apologizing?

Thank you for your understanding, Duke of Lu.

Qi.

Father.

Bring it.

Duke of Lu,

I bought a basket of berries

just for you today,

to console your pain

of having to bury your own son.

Are you messing with us, Duke?

Father.

Such a shame that he died!

Duke of Cai,

we both have children.

And I've already tasted

how it feels like to lose a child.

General Lu,

is young, brave and healthy.

I hope he can stay that way,

and that you don't have to go through

this living hell that I'm experiencing now.

Duke of Lu,

my condolences again.

I'll excuse myself.

Father,

The annual hunt in the palace is in two days.

I heard that General Lu is going,

so Chujun and I want to go too.

Oh, right.

I heard that there are many vicious animals there,

and that a tiger tore a guy into pieces last year.

Right.

Your big brother's body was never found.

If you guys go hunting,

and the tiger tears you apart,

then your family will have to

build another cenotaph again.

Manners!

Apologies, Father.

After seeing so many girls,

I still think Lu Yingying is the prettiest.

Right.

The imperial physician has confirmed that
the Crown Princess is pregnant,

so she won't be able to lie with the Crown Prince for a while.

It's great timing to get him another wife now.

Look at her calligraphy.

It's quite good, too.

Right.

This is the embroidery

that the Empress wants to give to Lu Yingying.

Please have a look, Your Majesty.

Take it back.

I'm not gonna give her a peacock embroidery now.

Embroider something else.

Let's say lilies and roses.

I don't get it.

Lilies represent fertility

while roses symbolize marriage.

This girl is perfect in every respect.

Even her handwriting is very nice.

Have a look.

Right.

I've met this Lady Lu

when I was working at King Han's mansion.

She has sweet smiles and sparkling eyes.

Now looking at her calligraphy

"A pair of swallows fly by,

with their wings low and high",

she reminds me of someone.

Who is it?

Zhuang Jiang.

This poem was written by her,

the Princess of Qi in the Spring and Autumn Period.

Such a beautiful and talented lady!

The expression of

sweet smiles and sparkling eyes

was used to describe her originally.

This Lu Yingying is beautiful and talented too.

Indeed,

she looks a bit like Zhuang Jiang.

However, there are no perfect things in the world.

God endowed Zhuang with talent and beauty

but forgot to give her one thing.

What thing?

Offspring.

She married Duke of Way,

but wasn't able to bear children.

So she raised the son of a concubine as her own.

But in the end,

even that child was killed.

Beautiful women are often ill-fated,

like Xi Shi and Zhuang Jiang.

The more stunning they are,

the less fortunate they are.

I've spoken too much.

I apologize for that, Your Majesty.

You can leave now.

Yes, Your Majesty.

Zhuang Jiang was too pretty

that the gods were jealous of her.

It caused unrest in Way and its people suffered.

Guess it's not necessarily a good thing

to be so beautiful.

Do not bring Lu's portrait in the future

when we select wives for the Crown Prince.

King Zhou.

Why do you sound so sad again?

I think

I might have done something despicable.

What did you do?

"A pair of swallows fly by,

with their wings low and high."

Such excruciating pain

to say goodbye to loved ones.

This is the oldest poem on the pain of parting.

But we all need to say goodbyes.

You can't live in the past forever.

Lu Yunji, Duke of Cai,

has eliminated evils and restored peace

for Tang and its people.

As a reward for your loyalty to Tang,

I now promote you to

the Head of Department of State Affairs.

As you were.

I, Lu Yunji, thank His Majesty for the promotion.

Stop.

Who are you?

Sheng Chumu, General of Pacification.

I thought he's dead?

I know, right?

Say it one more time. Who are you?

General of Pacification,

Sheng Chumu.

Duke of Cai.

Please.

Please.

- Please.
- After you.

Cheers.

His Majesty has been hosting dinners
for me these days,

and I've been drinking too much.

I'll drink three shots at most today.

Just three.

It's such a feat to eliminate Sheng.

I heard that

the His Majesty wants to promote you

to Head of Department of State Affairs.

At this rate, you'll soon make Grand Counsellor!

That's great news!

Congratulations, Duke of Cai.

Congrats!

I've been in and out of battlefields all my life.

If I can live the rest of my life comfortably
as the Grand Counsellor,

I will have no regrets!

Please, let's drink!

Please.

Drink up!

Let's drink.

Wait for me!

Lu Yunji.

How audacious!

He is so greedy.

Not only did he took the officials' money,

he also gave orders to loot the city.

Loot the city?

He used searching for
the remaining rebels as an excuse,

to allow the troops to loot houses

and rape women.

The upright soldiers of Tang

acted like vicious bandits.

How unbelievable!

Because I didn't agree with him,

he asked me to lead only 200 troops

to Anxi Gorge to search for rebels.

However, someone leaked my whereabouts,

so I was chased by rebels along the way.

Eventually I was injured and fell into the sea.

What a bastard!

I humbly ask Your Majesty to apprehend him now.

Why would he commit such savage crimes?

It's unbelievable.

Sheng Chumu,

it's not that I don't believe you.

But Lu has just won a huge war for Tang.

I can't just believe your side of the story.

It's not just my side.

After I managed to escape from grave danger,

I came ashore at the Nine Tower river mouth,

so I could go to the nearby Nine Tower City

and get proof of his crimes.

Your Majesty,

this has been signed

by all the citizens in the Nine Tower City.

Lu looted the city and destroyed their homes.

Every name and every fingerprint on it

is proof that he is evil.

Guards!

Yes.

Take some people

to apprehend Lu Yunji!

Get to the bottom of this!

Yes, Your Majesty.

Your Majesty,

his son Lu Qi was also part of it.

He was in charge of looting

the houses of the rebels.

Apprehend Lu Qi,

son of Lu Yunji!

Move! Move!

Make way!

Congrats, Duke of Cai!

We need to call him Counsellor Lu soon!

Let's toast to Counsellor Lu.

Congrats, Counsellor Lu.

Let's drink, Counsellor.

Please.

Let's drink.

Move!

Eh...

Eh...

How dare you!

Don't you know whose house this is?

By order of His Majesty,

we are here to apprehend Lu Yunji and Lu Qi.

There must be a mistake.

Let's go and find out then.

Take them.

Stop!

Is there a misunderstanding?

Right, what's happening now?

This...

What's going on?

How did this happen?

You unfilial bastard!

You unfilial bastard!

My lord.

You unfilial bastard!

Stop hitting him, my lord.

He's back now.

I have had countless injuries,

and I've gone through unimaginable pains.

But nothing has ever hurt me like this.

As long as you are alive.

Am I dreaming?

I really thought you died.

Enough.

I can feel your muscles.

It's not a dream!

You've got beefier.

Please, King Han.

Enough, you two.

Go back to your seats.

Go.

Chumu,

let me take a good look at you.

You had me so worried, you know?

Sister,

I'm really back.

You're not dreaming.

Stop crying.

Mother just stopped crying,

now you're sobbing too.

You're still so naughty.

Chumu,

you ungrateful brat.

Your sister was so sad.

She didn't eat or speak a word.

Even I lost my appetite, seeing how sad she was.

Look, I've lost weight!

Stop taking credit.

Father.

Mother.

I...

My son.

Another one?

You've got me so many of them.

Take it.

It's for good luck.

Good luck.

Father, Mother.

We'll toast you.

Where's ours?

Where's ours?

Piss off.

That's for your elder brother.

Where's ours?

Where is it?

Piss off.

That's for your elder brother.

Alright.

The whole family has finally reunited.

Let's drink to that.

Please, King Han.

Queen Han.

King Han.

After you, Queen Han.

Yang Bo.

You look fantastic today, Directress Fu.

It's true that good things make people happy.

What good things?

No need to play dumb with me.

Don't forget that

I was the lookout

last time you met with General Sheng.

You must be thrilled

now that he's back alive.

To have someone back after you lost them,

is really the happiest thing in the world.

Right.

I remember you told me that

your parents passed away when you were little

and your brother and his wife raised you.

Consort Xi gave it to me.

Take it.

Give it to your sister-in-law as a gift.

Directress Si,

this is inappropriate.

Your salary is not a lot.

And the 15th of the next month will be

our holiday approved by Her Majesty.

You don't see your family often.

You can't go empty-handed.

Give this to your sister-in-law.

She will love it.

Take it.

Thank you, Directress Fu.

It's me who should thank you.

You were the one who alerted King Zhou

when they were gonna send me to the sanatorium.

He told me everything.

We all work together.

Helping others is basically helping ourselves.

How are things out there?

I've asked around.

Sheng Chumu said plenty of

bad things about you two in front of His Majesty.

He accused you of looting homes and hurting civilians.

They've already got General You's deposition.

They've also sent people

to Jiuzhu Town to investigate it.

Sheng Chumu.

That damn Sheng Chumu again!

I shouldn't have used the rebels against him.

I should have killed him myself!

What are the ministers saying?

With the Emperor being furious,

I'm afraid...

I'm afraid nobody dares to plead for you.

You need to visit

the important ministers on my behalf now.

Ask them to join forces and vouch for me.

If that can't even get

His Majesty to spare us,

I'm afraid our lives are at risk.

Also,

remember this.

Money doesn't matter.

We need to get through this at whatever cost.

Alright, I'm on it.

I, Lu Yunji,

have been nothing but loyal to His Majesty.

I even saved his life once.

I served him for decades.

Even if I made some side money,

it shouldn't undo all the blood

I've shed for him.

Your Majesty,

how could you...

How could you treat me like this,

after I've spent my whole life serving you?

That's all we've got?

It's all here.

Wait a sec.

This is a cape made of pearls.

Cousin, the lives of Father and my brother
now count on you.

Yingying,

rest assured.

Guards.

Take all these.

Greeting, Your Majesty.

Your Majesty,

why do you look so upset?

Of course it's because of Lu Yunji!

He still doesn't repent now that he's in jail.

Not just that, he even asked his nephew

to bribe other ministers to speak for him.

He has zero respect for this royal court!

I have given my orders.

All treasure of the Lu family will be confiscated.

His nephew will also be put behind bars.

I won't let them get off easily!

Lu Yingying, daughter of Lu Yunji,
requests to meet Your Majesty.

Request denied.

Your Majesty.

She's kneeling outside the palace,

saying that if you refuse to see her,

she will stay there until she dies...

Alright then.

I'll help her achieve that.

Let her die there!

Got it.

Even though Lady Lu looks very delicate,

she's actually quite stubborn.

But her father committed so many evil deeds.

Would kneeling undo the damage?
