credit

♫ Memories of the past are always vivid ♫

♫ They accompanied me to take every step ♫

♫ On the road ♫

♫ Going through heat and cold ♫

♫ The bumpy journey has rendered my longing ♫

♫ Rock solid ♫

♫ The same moonlight shines on our shoulders ♫

♫ Even if we are separated by a long distance ♫

♫ We are close in our hearts ♫

♫ The wind blew away the past ♫

♫ I look for your distant location on a starry night ♫

♫ In the ocean of faces ♫

♫ For you, my heart burns and races ♫

♫ Despite its turns and twists, fate is in my hands ♫

♫ May waiting convert regrets into a happy ending ♫

♫ May solitary figures find right companions ♫

♫ And become a pair ♫

[Time Flies and You Are Here]

[Episode 2]

[Spring comes when flowers of my home town bloom in deep snow]

[Residence of the Su Family]

We don't have many grandkids in this family.

You can just call me grandma,

like Minggu does.

Your Ladyship, that's...

It's impolite to refuse an elder. I want you to have it.

Thank Her Ladyship.

[Grandmother of Su Wei, surname Wang]
Just take it.

Thank you, Your Ladyship.

How dare you call her grandma?

There is a saying that gifts blind the eyes.

What about the case of living in someone else's house?

The dignity, I guess.

How...

Su Wei. Xiaoman.

You two come with me.

[Great Virtue Brings Blessings]

I can't believe you lied to me.

You got bad grades for the big exam.

You don't have the credit to judge Xiaoman.

Get on your knees.

My Lady! My Lady! My Dear, please calm down.

I got it from here.

Su Minggu,

integrity is the most important quality in a person.

Being capricious, telling lies,

hiding grades,

you're on the way to becoming a bad girl.

You don't get to eat your breakfast today.

Remain on your knees here.

Go to school on your own when it's school time.

Skip the breakfast then, but eat more at lunchtime.

Please wait for me, My Lady! My Dear!

[Bailu Academy]

You again?

Are you here to report me?

You burned my test paper.

And you burned my receipt.

I have all the reason to report you.

[Receipt]
It seems

[Receipt]
you were looking for this last night.

Give it back to me! Give it back to me!

Listen!

If you ever dare report me, you'll never get this back.

How dare you!

- You're crazy.
- You heard its sound.

You know what you should do.

If you ever report me, even if I don't tear this paper apart,

- you'll never get to see it again.
- You filthy rat!

There are many things that I choose not to do.

If I really am a filthy rat,

do you think you'll make it here today?

What are you doing?

It's your call.

You...

What's going on here?

Nothing.

I'm here to ask about the Spring Banquet.

Come with me.

The Book of Songs, in a nutshell, is all about pure thoughts.

The Spring Banquet is a traditional occasion for commenting on poems.

You're new here.

Perhaps you don't have enough time for this.

Poems are not necessarily made up of fancy words.

Pure thoughts... It means gentlemen are always honest and honorable.

They say what they mean.

They do what they want.

You have nothing to be afraid of.

[The Book of Songs]

I'll try my best.

I checked your test paper.

You got a B.

I had problems understanding many things.

You need to work on it.

I surely will.

Also, I will prove myself innocent.

Wait for me!

[Ten States Documented Zhao Xiaoqian]

Shallow guy.

- The pattern...
- Xiaoman,

don't touch it.

Is he Commandery Prince of Julu?

Put it down.

Are you the Commandery Prince of Julu?

I am asking you to put it down.

Give me my receipt first.

[Receipt]

Are you looking for this?

- You...
- Hanchen!

You...

The sword tassel is a keepsake of Hanchen's brother.

Hanchen was close to Dalang.

After Dalang's death,

Hanchen came to Wujiang Prefecture for recovery.

It has been four years.

These keepsakes mean the whole world to him.

He was impolite to you today.

Please don't be offended.

If these receipts

are very important to you,

I will have them repaired and delivered to your residence.

Keepsakes?

He can't be the Commandery Prince of Julu.

Check this paragraph out.

I really am a genius!

Breaking news! Breaking news!

One should have good manners. It's impolite to lose one's manners.

Where is your demeanor?

The prince is mad at someone.

What happened? He has been practicing archery all this afternoon.

He looks very mad.

Sanniang, was she who got the Commandery Prince mad?

- Sanniang!
- It's none of our business. Let's focus on our embroidery.

Get over there. Hurry up.

Don't be afraid. You're not in trouble.

Besides, you're here to comfort him.

He is the Commandery Prince.

I'm the daughter of a sub-prefect.

I... I dare not.

- Would you do it for me?
- I...

Miss Xue, please bear this in mind.

I see. It was Xie Xiaoman, the newcomer, who offended you.

Hanchen, let's go.

She will pay for that.

I'd like to hear your plan.

Her father, Xie Yu, is my uncle, the second son of my grandfather.

Upon my grandfather's death,

his father wanted to separate and live apart.

Now her father does the paperwork.

Back then, her father was a coroner.

Let's go.

Jingnv Pavilion]

Sanniang, check this out.

It's said he used to be a coroner.

He turned to paperwork because he wanted his son to succeed.

How did a coroner's daughter make it here?

A coroner? That means dealing with the dead bodies.

She could be a jinx.

What's wrong with being a coroner?

Maybe it is all due to your own ignorance.

"The debris in spring rain."

[Xiaoman's poem]
What's that about?

That's so cheesy.

You don't deserve to make poems.

- That's right.
- Indeed.

[Bailu Academy]

Young lady, you're still here.

I thought you left with the Su family.

So what?

My father used to be a coroner.

Your Highness, do you want to belittle me, too?

There's nothing wrong with being a coroner.

Are the noble people born with their standing?

Being the daughter of a coroner is nothing to be ashamed of.

Listen! No matter who you are, you and I

are enemies.

Let's go.

What got into you?

How could you make such a big mistake?

My apologies. I'll make sure it won't happen again.

Please give me a second chance.

Okay. You will not have a second chance.

Take care, My Lord. Take care.

Mao... Maoya.

- Dad.
- You... What are you doing here?

Where is Minggu?

We got separated. I wanted to take a walk.

How did you get separated?

Hey, what happened to your eyes?

Are you all right?

There was dust in my eyes.

I rubbed my eyes.

I see.

Did you eat? It's my payday today.

Tell me what you want to eat.

I want to have noodles.

Let's go.

- Dad, have more.
- Have more.

Your mom said that I'm getting too fat to have meat.

You have it, come on.

Come on. Come on.

Come on.

Dad, can I ask you one question?

Sure, go ahead.

Did you become a coroner because you have a passion for this job?

That seems like a weird question.

In today's world, I'd like any job

as long as it enables me to support my family.

"Are the noble people born with their standing?"

What does that mean?

Well, it means warriors come in all shapes and sizes.

A person is not to be judged by his family background.

Why do you ask?

Did you hear this sentence back at school?

Hurry up and eat. You'll go back soon, or your uncle and auntie will get worried.

Hurry up.

Miss Xie.

Miss Xie is back.

It's too late. Please come back earlier next time.

We don't have strict rules in this house.

But coming back home late is not good for you.

I see, Nanny. It was my dad who sent me back.

That's reassuring.

Nanny, can I have an embroidery book?

[Gentleman tassel]

It's called a gentleman's tassel.

[Bailu Academy]
What about your poems?

Needless to say, I'll get an A.

What about the Spring Banquet? Are you well-prepared?

Certainly.

- Let's go.
- Right.

I don't think so.

She is your cousin, after all.

Besides, if words got around, your reputation will be at stake.

Reputation?

Her father wanted to separate and live apart from us.

They were being shameless.

Why should I care?

Look.

Dear Xiaoman.

There is no free lunch. You must be up to something.

There are Spring Banquet refreshments in the kitchen.

Get some for me.

Ruying, I'm not your slave girl.

I'm older than you. You should do as I say.

If you won't do it, I'll tell Grandma later on.

By then, your parents will be suffering.

Anyone there?

Did you see Xie Xiaoman?

Not that I recall.

Spring breeze, beautiful trees, stable sound, falling flowers, days are passing.

Sigh "how time flies" by depicting spring scenery, clever stroke.

Replace "days are passing"

with "time is speeding by," that will be a nicer way

to depict the profound laws of nature.

Thank you, Sir.

Precisely.

Where is Xie Xiaoman?

Why should I know?

You sent her to the kitchen to fetch refreshments. She hasn't come back yet.

You should know where she is.

I wrote a poem a few days ago. Have you heard about it?

It seems Director Xu has reported our grades to our parents.

Really?

Yeah.

Did you tell them on me?

Did you set me up because you were afraid I'd tell your parents

that you burned the test papers?

Xie Xiaoman, good for you.

Good for you.

Did I misunderstand her?

She wasn't a snitch.

- How dare you burn the exam papers?
- I didn't.

You tried to cheat in the exam in vain, so you burned the papers.

- Who else could have done it if it weren't you?
- I didn't. I'm telling the truth.

You actually did burn my receipt?

Yes.

I threw it into the fire. So what?

Kneel down!

Kneel and apologize!

- Minggu.
- Xiaoman.

You... You... What happened to you?

You...

You might need this.

The Spring Banquet is about to begin. Wipe this down.

Otherwise, the teacher will lecture you again.

Thank you.

I don't need you to be grateful.

You were silly for trusting Xie Ruying and her sidekicks.

Now, get yourself cleaned.

Use the water and wash yourself.

It wasn't me who reported you.

I know.

- Wang Weicheng?
- Here.

- Lang Mengzi?
- Here.

Xie Xiaoman?

Xie Xiaoman?

Xie Xiaoman?

Absence will be considered as an abstention.
[Principal of Bailu Academy, Yang Chidao]

I'm here.

It's rude to appear like that.

According to Historical Records,

sometimes, it's unwise to focus too much on the smallest details.

We're having the Spring Banquet today, of which the theme is creating poems.

Let's get over trivial things.

May I hear your poem?

Endless spring, sleepless willows,

the lonely crescent and the lonely stars.

I will always be nostalgic about Yuyangli, my hometown.

That's it?

Actually, I wrote a complete poem.

Senior Brother Congwen told me honorable people have pure thoughts and would say whatever they mean.

I was thinking about this, so I wrote about this.

- You are excused.
- I have something to say.

Go ahead, please.

What I want to say is...

Yuyangli is my hometown.

I was born and raised in Yuyangli.

It is not a well-known place,

but never did I think being born in Yuyangli

to be something as inferior to those born in Wujiang.

Honorable people have nothing to be ashamed of.

I'm an upright person.

I'm not afraid of what people say.

It is great ambition that makes a man great.

It means that a person is not to be judged by his family background.

Each of you is from a prestigious family and is well-educated.

However, talking about people behind their backs,

is that what you learn from the books?

If you act like this, how are you going to carry forward the power of wisdom

and bring peace to the world?

Well said!

- Well said!
- Well said!

Brilliant!

What are you doing?

We, villagers, believe in "an eye for an eye".

You splashed ink powder on me. I will pay you back with ink.

You don't want to do this. Barbarian.

Well, I'm not you.

I won't do those barbaric things like you.

My father used to be a coroner.

It seems you look down on him and talk ill of him because of his job.

However, my father doesn't steal or rob.

He supported the whole family on his own.

He is a perfectly honest man.

He is respectful.

Gentlemen have pure thoughts.

Bravo!

Principal.

Xiaoman, let me take you to wash the ash away.

Being knowledgeable, asking good questions,

reflecting carefully, knowing the difference, practicing earnestly,

these are the underlying principles of this academic institution.

I want you to become that kind of person.

That's the end of it.

Don't make the same mistake again.

You made a wonderful poem today. You got an A for that.

Get yourself cleaned.

[Principal Office]

You go.

Now I have to come clean. I burned the test paper.

I knew about this.

What else do you want to say?

It seems you knew this all along, but you just let it go.

You talk too bluntly.

You and Xiaojie have nothing in common.

We were not the same type.

Your father wants you to go back to the capital and enroll in the Imperial Academy.

I know.

If you want to tell on me, I will not disagree.

And you? Do you want me to tell him?

I was invited to the palace to teach you and Xiaojie.

A naughty kid, you were capable of reciting the Great Learning.

Being an honest man means always being honest to oneself.

You're a grown man now. You have your own problems to solve.

[Keep Calm And Stay Focused]

Xiaoman.

Uncle Liangji.

[Catalog for Books]
I didn't touch the sword tassel.

I made a new one.

When the weaver comes, she can have it repaired based on my model.

I always thought you were ingenious.

It turns out I was right. How much do I owe you?

It's for free, Uncle Liangji.

I owe this to you.

And this. I made this booklet.

It tells you where to put the books.

Just let me know when new books have arrived.

I will write new books in the blank space.

[Catalog for Books]
There are many books I can't figure out.

I'm not sure how to classify them, so I wrote them in the last column.

Good, good. That's really good.

It's getting late. I'm going back home, or my family will worry about me.

[Keep Calm And Stay Focused]

I owe this to you?

Your Highness.

Your Highness, look at the sword tassel.

They look exactly the same. It was made by a new maid in our house.

She is good at this.

- Who made this?
- The new maid in the study.

She just left.

Where are you going?

[Be Courteous, Be Silent]

I'm here. I'm here.

Why you?

I want to reclaim our farmland.

It turns out you were endowed with the farmland.

So, I'm here to work for your family.

Do you know the name of that sword tassel?

It's called the gentleman tassel.

According to Confucius, a gentleman has three qualities:

carefree because he is benevolent, confident because he is wise,

fearless because he is brave.

Your Highness, it seems you have a long way to go.

You... Your Highness, I'm sorry for being rude.

I've done my job to solve our past issues.

Your Highness, I will start working here and your tolerance will be appreciated.

I want to reclaim our farmland,

exactly as it was.

You're so skinny.

[Bailu Academy]

It's Wujiang Prefecture School again.

It's nothing but a cuju competition.

We're just scholars. It's going too far.

That's right. That's way out of line.

Putting white flags in our ground.

The cuju competition.

That's right. Bailu Academy versus Wujiang Prefecture School.

I heard that Wujiang Prefecture School is a government-run school.

That's right. They just won't leave us alone.

They cause so much trouble.

- Xu Shu.
- My Lord.

[Shen Yan, courtesy name Junxia]
Where is Zhao Xiaoqian?

Why isn't he here yet?

Well.
[Xu Shu, son of the transportation officer of Western Zhejiang Province]

He slept in.

[Wujiang Prefecture School]

Release!

Okay. Wonderful!

Hanchen, good for you. You got your guards here.

Mr. Qin...

His Highness is being childish. You play along as well?

His Majesty sent us to Wujiang Prefecture to look after His Highness,

making sure no one can bully him.

There are only about one hundred people here. Nothing can go wrong.

But you're too mature for such a young age.

You don't act like a young man at all.

Maybe you should learn from His Highness.

Your Highness, it has been done.

We should leave now.

People will get scared if we stay here.

Good job.

You're having additional meat for today's supper.

Thanks, Your Highness.

- Thanks, Your Highness.

Let's go!

Hanchen, is it true that you're leaving?

If so, I want to have your horse for a few days.

Boyang, it's a Ferghana horse from Dawan, a gift from His Majesty.

- It has been with Hanchen back from the capital.
- That's right.

How dare you ask me for it?

Come on, what's the big deal? You're so mean.

Are you going back to the capital to get married to Shen Zhaowen?

In that case, Shen Yan is your brother-in-law.

- How can you do that to him?
- Who told you that I'm getting married?

Are you out of your mind?

Hey, are the meals of our house terrible these days?

The maids are becoming skinny.

Who? Who are getting skinny?

I found my study messy after today's school.

- Ask Liangji to get Xie Xiaoman to work for me.
- Aye.

Hey, Xie Xiaoman, the girl of the Bailu Academy, is working for you?

It's none of your business.

When did Xie Xiaoman start working for you?

[Delicacy Restaurant]

Excuse me, is this seat taken?

Nope.

[Student Lang Mengzi and Aying]
Are you Xie Xiaoman,

the lady at the Spring Banquet?

You did a really brilliant job that day.

That's right. You were being so brave!

You're nothing like the ladies in this academic institution.

Will you make refreshments in the school kitchen tomorrow?

Make refreshments?

The day after tomorrow marks the Cold Food Festival,

by which time there will be a cuju competition.

You didn't know that?

That's a tradition here.

The boys will be playing the ball game at the Cold Food Festival.

The girls will prepare refreshments for them, to cheer them up.

The Cold Food Festival bears many meanings.

Some girls will try to impress their crush by offering refreshments.

Some will express their gratitude to their elders.

It depends on the recipients.

Go ask him. Go ask him. Or else, it'll be too late.

May I ask what kind of dessert you like?

He likes all delicious foods.

This is what you eat?
