[New Life Begins]

[Adapted from the novel "Journey to the Qing Dynasty" by Duomu Muduo]

[Episode 1]

There are nine states in the world.

Everything is different in each state.

[Mo State]
Mo State in the north has a strong army

where herdsmen live in a scattered manner.

[Cang State]
Cang State in the northwest

is dry and barren with few resources.

[Dai State]
Dai State in the center is mountainous

and rich in minerals.

[Yan State]
Yan State in the south is small with few resources

but abounds with flowers and fruit.

[Ying State]
Ying State in the southeast has abundant rainfall

where plants are evergreen.

[Ji State]
In most states, men are considered superior.

[Moo]
But Ji State in the southwest pursues monogamy

where men and women are equal.

[Dan State]
In Dan State where everyone loves spicy food,

women rule.

The women there are shrewish and straightforward

who usually have a matrilocal husband.

[Jin State]
Jin State in the east is along the coast

where trade flourishes.

Locals of generations do business.

Rich people are deemed superior.

[Xin State]
Xin State is the strongest state among the nine

where lineal descendants are more honorable

and women are inferior to men.

These nine states had been fighting wars for years

until Xin State won.

A peace agreement that would last for a century was made.

Girls of the right age from each state

shall marry Young Lords of Xin State

and no violation is allowed.

[Ji State]

Why is there even a donkey carriage?

Stop going through the stuff.

You got all that we practiced?

Yes, yes.

Father, have some peanuts.

[Li Wenbi, a minor official from Ji State]
What does your family do?

Three generations are farmers. Only my father passed the imperial exam.

But he's such a minor official that he can't even work in Ji Palace.

My family is mediocre with a small field and few properties.

- Pretend to be very poor.
- Fine

[Zhuge Xiaomei, head of the family]
What if they ask if you're educated?

Mother, have a pancake.

I don't want it. What if they ask if you're educated?

I'm not that literate.

[Li Cang, the younger son in the family]
But I can read menus.

Pretend to be ignorant.

What if they ask what you're good at?

[Li Wei, a concubine candidate from Ji State]
I'm Li Wei from Ji State.

Arts and literature... Needlework... I know little about them.

I'm only good at tasting delicacies.

Don't worry about me.

After I say that, I won't be selected.

No young lords of Xin State will favor me.

What if they're blind?

What a misfortune!

Think about it.

No girl in our state wants to marry anyone in this place.

If your father had more power,

my daughter wouldn't be pushed here!

It's all my fault.

Father...

What happened?

Why did the carriage stop?

What's wrong?

What happened?

What's going on here?

Be careful.

Madam, the donkeys aren't moving.

- Aren't moving?
- What's happening?

We're in a hurry. Don't stand in the way.

Coming for the selection in a donkey carriage?

Sorry. We'll solve the problem immediately.

Sorry.

What's the rush?

Come on. Move.

Try harder, Honey. Harder.

Why don't they move?

Come on, you stubborn donkeys.

Move, or I'll make you into food.

Don't resort to violence.

We should persuade them.

Yeah, Mother. The more you curse them, the later they'll move.

It's getting late.

You can't take me into the palace anyway.

Let's bid farewell here for now.

What about the donkeys?

I've got a plan.

It's working.

It really is.

It's indeed working.

- It's working.
- My sister is so smart.

Father and Mother, go back now.

Don't worry about me!

Wei, be very careful!

Expect good news of me failing to be selected.

Hope you'll fail!

Come back early!

Sister, take good care of yourself.

[Xin Palace]

[The Nine States]

All carriages stop here.

Ladies from the nine states shall get off.

Queue up!

Come into the palace!

In you go.

Nothing from outside the palace

can be brought in.

Girls, please hand over your belongings.

[Identity Document]

[Nanny Yang, the chief nannt]

[Nanny Liu, the principal nanny]

What are these?

[Ruan Sisi, a concubine candidate from Ying State]

They can't be brought in.

In you go.

Your Grace, you're a noble.

[Shangguan Jing, Princess of Dan State]
His Lordship allows you to carry your spear.

But you can't take this parcel with you.

[Ministry of Rites of Ji State]

I'm from a poor family and I haven't brought anything.

In you go.

How dare you hide food!

Frisk her!

I'm not hiding anything. Nanny...

Frisk her!

Nothing more.

Stop.

Her back.

Leave one, please. Nanny.

She even brought this rotten apple.

Stop.

Search carefully.

That's all.

How ridiculous!

Where do you think you are?

How could you bring such stuff?

If everybody brings random things like you do,

the rules set will be pointless!

Nanny, don't get angry.

She knows she was wrong.

Please let her go.

[Hao Jia, a concubine candidate from Yan State]

What are these?

And Nanny, look.

So many girls are waiting.

How about we finish early and call it a day?

Fine, then.

In you go.

Take it away.

Here's my identity document.

What are these?

The perfumes I made of orange zest and osmanthus.

And liquid rouge made from rose juice.

I can't bring them in, right?

Then, I'll give them to you.

I always carry this book, Lessons for Women.

May I bring it in?

Sure. Bring it in.

Miss, you look elegant.

You'll have a bright future, I'm sure.

Hope you'll promote us later.

You flatter me.

Hope you can help me in the future.

In you go.

Wei.

Sister Hao Jia, it's really you.

Yes.

It's been many years since my parents last took me

to Yan State to visit you, huh?

More than five years.

You're as cute and beautiful as before.

So are you.

When you're in trouble again, don't be scared.

You have me. I'll protect you.

These nannies just look strict.

They won't hurt us actually.

And they just confiscated your snacks.

We'll be given some later.

It doesn't matter.

They didn't confiscate everything.

Oh, dear. You still have some?

It tastes so good.

[School for Young Lords]

For the selection,

many beautiful girls have come from the nine states.

Unfortunately,

[Yin Yue, Tenth Young Lord]
Princess Yuan Ying from Jin State hasn't come.

She's extremely gorgeous.

[Yin Yan, Seventh Young Lord]
I'd give her at least nine points.

One point is deducted because she's said to be too elegant and arrogant,

which is quite boring.

[Yin Qi, Fifth Young Lord]

Where did you get this portrait?

This girl isn't even as pretty...

as me.

This girl is the only candidate from Ji State, Li Wei.

But I heard she's quite strange and came in a donkey carriage.

Speaking of pretty girls,

reeds are green, dew and frost gleam.

And there is the beauty,

Hao Jia from Yan State.

[Yin Han, Ninth Young Lord]
This girl does nothing but read books on feminine virtue.

She's great.

She deserves ten points.

Come on.

The way you rank them is ridiculous.

This is just a portrait.

How could you...?

Indeed.

She's stunning. What's her name?

- Hao Jia!
- Hao Jia.

[Lessons for Women]
Lessons for Women?

No.

When we know who we're faced with,

we'll get what we want.

Lord of Xin State has eleven sons.

But Eighth Young Lord died when he was little.

So there are only ten young lords left.

The first four have got married.

After they started working in the court, they moved out of the palace to live in their own mansions.

The remaining six young lords still live in the palace.

The selection this time is held to choose wives for them.

Yin Qi, Fifth Young Lord.

[Yin Qi, Fifth Young Lord]
He's simple and honest.

Yin Yan, Seventh Young Lord, is taciturn and nice.

They can be good husbands.

The last three young lords are too young to get married.
[Yin Han, Ninth Young Lord Yin Yue, Tenth Young Lord; Eleventh Young Lord]

Fifth Brother, looks like you favor Hao Jia, too.

This girl looks like a fairy in those operas.

By the way, Seventh Brother,

you don't talk very much.

However, Ruan Sisi from Ying State...

I heard that she's a girl of few words, too.

She's perfect for you.

Sadly, she only deserves three points.

Little Tenth, this isn't very kind.

She's a pure girl.

- Why could you give her points and...?
- Come on.

It's okay when others complain about me. But you won't get married. Why do you care what I say?

I...

And who is this girl?

Princess Shangguan. She's from Dan State.

Her looks deserve eight points.

But she's from Dan State.

So one point.

What's wrong with Dan State?

Seventh Brother, you know it as well.

In Dan State, it's usually the women who have the say in the house.

That's ridiculous!

So, local girls can hardly get married.

They have to take matrilocal husbands.

God bless me! Father can give me any girl.

But this one... It's a big no-no.

I... I don't want to be her matrilocal husband.

That one. Hao Jia.

Great, isn't she?

Look at her.

[Yin Song, Crown Young Lord]

[Yin Song, Second Young Lord]

This one is Yin Song, Second Young Lord.

He's the lineal son,

titled the Crown Young Lord.

Look at him. He's handsome and talented.

Wise and brave.

He's a very good choice.

But this book says

he's got a wife.

How can he be a good choice?

He's the Crown Young Lord,

the future lord of Xin State, silly girl.

- Greetings, Your Highness.
- Greetings, Your Highness.

[Yin Jun, Fourth Young Lord]
No wonder Mr. Dai said they didn't study well lately.

So, they've been shifting their focus to girls.

You are sapping your spirit by seeking pleasures.

Shame on you.

Tenth, you and I share the same mother.

We should be models for our brothers.

Yes.

Each of you, copy The Book of Tao and Teh three times.

If you still lag behind in the Knowledge Exam half a month later,

kneel in the shrine.

- Got it.
- Got it.

What about Sixth Young Lord?

Why isn't he in the book?

Did he die, too?

No.

Here he is.

Your Lordship, the way you play chess

[Dai Di, Junior Mentor]
differs from how you normally behave.

Instead of remaining humble, you keep attacking.

You're nearly 20,

but aren't allowed to have your own mansion or work in court.

As far as I see,

you should bide your time.

My eldest brother was sent to guard Mo State

while my second brother is in charge here.

Even if Father favors my third brother,

he still has to bow to my second brother.

My fourth brother has a mansion and a job in court

only because he follows my second brother.

And it's merely a job at the Ministry of Rites which grants him no power.

If I weren't a sick idler,

[Yin Zheng, Sixth Young Lord]
I would have to flatter my second brother, too.

Fifth Young Lord is unruly and dislikes to study.

His Lordship hasn't allowed him to step into court yet.

It's hard for you

to go around him.

But in this year's Knowledge Exams,

you always got first place.

I think it's time for His Lordship to notice you.

I have nine brothers.

But my father has only two eyes.

To get his attention

and be an official, I have to do more.

For the selection,

I'm afraid His Lordship won't get you a nice wife.

It's boring to get promoted through marriage.

No matter what I want,

I can get it by myself.

I win.

I know you are a proud man.

But you should also have a reliable wife.

Dan and Mo States have strong military forces.

Jin State is rich.

Dai State is rich in minerals.

But Ji State... It has nothing, but a good geomantic omen.

So, if I marry a girl from Ji State, it would also be good.

I'll at least have a good geomantic omen for my tomb.

If I play tricks in my marriage,

Father may feel alerted.

Our plan should be perfect.

If I get too calculative, it'll hurt me eventually.

Mr. Dai, since you've picked me, please trust me.

I won't let you down.

[Zhongyi Hall]
The selection starts!

Princess Shangguan, please come up.

[Lord of Xin State, Lady of Xin State]
What does your family do?

You just called me princess,

don't you know about my family?

[Head Nanny, Head of Imperial Household Department]

Greetings, My Lord and My Lady.

I'm Hao Jia from Yan State.

My parents are both well and healthy.

My father and brothers are officials.

My sisters married honorable men.

Li Wei from Ji State, do you have etiquette teachers?

Three generations of my family are farmers. Only my father passed the imperial exam.

But he's such a minor official that he can't even work in Ji Palace.

My family is mediocre with a small field and few properties.

My Lady, what did you just ask me?

Your Grace, what books have you read?

Books on the art of war.

Those are books for men.

I didn't know that certain books were only meant for men or women.

In my opinion, a girl reads books

to better take care of her husband.

We are not marrying some ordinary men, but the honorable young lords of Xin State.

They are bound to deal with some external affairs, such as people's livelihood and politics.

Women shouldn't interfere with them.

While household affairs include necessities of life for young lords,

education for children, contacts with superiors and inferiors,

and family accounts, etc.

When I was at home, I read some books about them.

I won't let you down.

Arts, literature, as well as needlework, I know little about them.

I'm only good at tasting delicacies.

I asked what you learned

about serving your husband.

Actually, in our state, a man has only one wife.

There's no such thing as serving anyone.

If a man and a woman fall in love,

they make an oath in the Matchmaker Temple

and then register in the government office.

If anyone breaks the oath,

all neighbors will criticize him.

What plan do you have for your future?

I wish I could travel around all nine states

and help people.

In the future, I wish

I could see my husband smile every day.

For the future?

I haven't thought too much about that.

We'll have a peaceful and tranquil backyard.

I want three children.

When my husband and I are old,

we can still bathe in the sun in our backyard.

But I'm a princess.

I have my responsibility to fulfill.

So, I must practice my spear skills

and protect those who I should protect.

I just think the future consists of every present day.

A couple should respect each other, understand and tolerate each other,

try their best to make the best of every day, and take each of their meals seriously.

That's the most important.

You may leave.

All concubine candidates,

[Liang Shi, Head Eunuch]
please wait outside the hall.

The girl from Ji State isn't elegant.

I quite favor Hao Jia.

Old Fifth also told me about her.

Olf Fifth is a good-for-nothing son.

If he can marry Hao Jia,

he may become more mature.

I didn't think of those questions before.

Do you think they will pick me?

Considering your answers,

you won't be picked just like you wished.

I'm relieved then.

Wei,

can you get to the Young Lords' Mansion over there?

Why?

You haven't had your fill at lunch, right?

They cook great food in the kitchen of Young Lords' Mansion.

Don't try to fool me.

Tell me. What do you want?

I don't mean to fool you.

When I stayed just now,

I heard His Lordship say

that he wanted me to marry Yin Qi.

I don't want that.

I want to marry Yin Song.

Who is Yin Qi? And who is Yin Song?

Why are you still unable to distinguish them?

He has ten sons. How can I distinguish them?

Yin Qi is the Fifth Young Lord.

Yin Song is the Crown Young Lord.

Yin Song is the Crown...

So, you can only be his concubine.

I know.

My mother told me that women could only live in the haram.

That is what we fight for all our lives.

It's not different from running a store.

My husband is the landlord.

His wife will only be an intractable mistress.

Now that I want a job,

I'll certainly work in Xin State, the best state.

And now that I'm here in Xin state,

I want the most promising landlord.

That will be the Crown Young Lord, right?

You can't think this way.

You're such a nice woman. You deserve a man who loves you and takes care of you.

Wei, I'm unlike you.

Your father has only one wife, your mother.

So, you have expectations for marriage.

But I...

My father isn't a good landlord.

My mother has been with him all her life.

Because of his legal wife's order, I was taken as his lineal daughter

and sent here for marriage.

I have no one to rely on.

So, I need a careful plan for my future.

So the dishes from Young Lords' Mansion...

Are they really delicious?

Let's go.

Can we really do this?

We've got no choice now.

There they are.

Nice to meet you again.

- You...
- It's hard to deliver food in the middle of the day. Let me help you.

Who are you?

I'm Wei from Sixth Young Lord's Mansion. Don't you remember?

We just met the other day.

What poor memories you have!

What's for today's lunch?

Potatoes and sweet potatoes can't be put together.

Potatoes like coolness while sweet potatoes like warmth.

When put together, the potatoes will sprout

or the sweet potatoes will be rotten.

You seldom work in the kitchen, right?

- Let me tell you about it.
- You...

We come together.

Uncooked food and cooked food can't be put together either.

Or their tastes will be mixed.

In this case, you should...

After the selection,

you will get married.

Father said you will have a mansion and a job.

But you fool around every day.

Your article has a lot of misspelled words.

Even I can't finish reading it.

Every month, the Ministry of Rites assesses young lords who work in court.

They don't care if you're humiliated.

Fourth, what did they say about you this month?

They quoted from Rat.

Even a rat has skin.

Some people have no decency.

It follows like this, "If he lacks decency, it would be worse than death."

The job I got your fourth brother a supervisor job at the Ministry of Rites.

He's their superior. But they still dared to impeach him.

Think about what will happen to you.

They won't impeach you anyway.

It's easy for you to say.

If you're dissatisfied with me,

try to write a report and impeach me.

Just don't write it with misspelled words

in case you humiliate us.

Little Fifth, apologize to him.

Do you want a mansion or not?

Well, I...

I just don't understand.

So many brothers are disappointing.

Why do you only criticize me?

What are you doing?

I'm sorry.

Sorry to have disturbed you.

Little Sixth, you saw through my chess strategy?

He doesn't know much about chess.

Sixth, don't try to show off.

That's right. Sixth, you know little about chess.

Second Brother's chess board has been put here for days.

No one else managed to solve it.

How could you?

Little Sixth, if you're interested in chess,

how about we play a game?

My stomach...

Are you all right?

Come on, sick man. Don't pretend to be the chess maniac.

Why must you do this?

See? You've got a stomach ache again.

You...

Second Brotehr, you know he's in poor health.

You may head back.

Thanks.

Fifth Brother, walk me back, please.

I'll walk him back.

Why did you get involved?

You even countered his chess strategy.

You know he is...

Fifth,

I just said I could watch you walk back.

Off you go. I'll watch you walk.

When you're back, take some medicine.

Second Brother, what you said was right. I've realized what I've done wrong.

How about this? I'll go get your fishing rod back.

I'll take care of that. Leave it to me.

Miss, where are you going?

I'm Hao Jia from Yan State, here for the selection. I got lost.

Your Lordship, please tell me the way to go back.

It's over there.

Walk along this road and you'll pass a willow.

Turn right and walk to the end.

After you pass the gate, turn right again.

Then you'll reach Zhongyi Hall.

Thank you, Fifth Young Lord.

How do you know I'm the Fifth Young Lord?

No one else could be as simple as you.

I guessed. Looks like I'm right.

You're awesome.

I am, I am. Come on.

Let me take you there.

Come on. Watch your step.

This way.

This chess game looks interesting.

The one who solved the chess puzzle has a simple mind.

He seemed to have solved it by luck.

But the one who planned the game used wise tricks

so that the black pieces couldn't move.

The one on the offensive

turns out to be intelligent and super perceptive.

The other player is actually better.

But sorry, you're not the Crown Young Lord.

Sorry for saying that.

I beg your pardon, Your Lordship.

It doesn't matter.

What you said is right.

His Highness won't blame you.

Greetings, Your Highness.

Here is some preserved apricot.

I made it myself.

Thank you for showing me the way.

It's a very simple gift. Hope you don't mind.

It's okay.

This is very nice.

Your Highness, I don't have more preserved apricot.

If I have the honor to meet you again,

I'll bring some to you.

It's okay.

It tastes so sweet.

How do you know I like sweet food?

You also guessed, right?

Your Lordship,

which direction...

should I follow again?

I forgot.

Don't worry. No need to memorize it. I'll take you there.

Wait.

Let me walk you.

Your Highness...

But I...

They...

Oh, come on.

Don't just sweep the floor.

Clean that corner, will you?

Then go over there.

Your Lordship. Your Lordship.

Didn't you go see the Crown Young Lord?

Why are you back so early?

I didn't want to socialize with him.

So I said I had a stomach ache.

It's wise of you, Your Lordship.

You've been suffering from stomach aches for a long time.

[Su Shen, Superintendent]
That's quite a handy excuse to use.

Ordinary guys aren't as smart as you.

Stop flattering me.

It's an excuse that everybody can think of.

No way. I can't.

It's a good habit to be thorough when you are putting on an act.

You still cover your stomach when you are back.

You're so thoughtful and rigorous.

My stomach really aches.

It does?

You're suffering a relapse again!

The lunch today was made to satisfy Mr. Dai's taste. You didn't eat much, right?

Look. You never liked overly greasy food.

They weren't considerate at all.

Go get some rest. Hurry.

No, no. You'd better have something to eat first.

I'll have some dishes arranged.

You helped Chef Liu Baoquan before. He's on our side.

He always has the dishes ready for you.

The pork ribs are blanched and lean.

Stop nagging, will you?

I'm starving.

Why isn't Hao Jia back yet?

So hungry.

This is the last dish.

Lunchtime is over. But so many dishes are left.

If I don't eat them, they'll be wasted.

Baoquan. Liu Baoquan.

Liu Baoquan! Are you in?

Are the dishes ready? Hurry.

Young Lord is back. And he's got a stomach ache because of hunger.

The dishes... Look what situation we're in!

Forget about the sense of ceremony!

- I...
- Superintendent Su.

You're right in time.

Sixth Young Lord has a stomach ache.

Serve him the dishes. Then he needs his medicine.

Follow the old prescription and decoct it. Okay?

Hurry. I said, hurry. Just run.

Liu Baoquan,

I'm cooperating here.

Why didn't you tell me when the dish was served?

Steamed Egg with Pumpkin.

Serve the following dishes quickly!

Here it is.

Steamed Egg with Pumpkin.

Your Lordship, have something hot first.

Where's the egg?

They must have got it wrong.

Please wait a minute.

[Boiled Broccoli, Boiled Asparagus, White Gourd with Minced Pork, Boiled Pork Ribs]

Here, Your Lordship. Osmanthus Cake.

Boiled Broccoli.

Broad Bean with Bulbus Lilli.

Boiled Asparagus.

Oh, no. Nothing to be used.

- Liu Baoquan!
- How about this?

Liu Baoquan, you have one last chance.

It's no use avoiding me.

If anything goes wrong again, I won't let you off!

Darn the rules!

Boiled Pork Ribs.

I'll get even with you later.

Boiled Pork Ribs.

I guess I opened it wrongly.

Please do it yourself.

Come on. It's the jade pendant of a concubine candidate.

Why is it here?

Your Lordship...

It looks better now.

Still tilted, I guess.

You don't understand.

Oh, no.

This man's well dressed

and he's here in the Young Lord's Mansion.

He's a young lord, I guess.

Who are you?

I'm the poison tester.

I test all dishes for young lords

before they're served.

These dishes are clear.

I should go.

I've never seen anyone test the poison with her own mouth.

Which young lord do you work for?

Which young lord?

I hear the Sixth Young Lord is in poor health

and can hardly achieve anything great.

Lord of Xinchuan doesn't pay much attention to him.

People in the palace are snobbish.

Naturally, they don't care much about Sixth Young Lord.

Sounds like he's quite invisible.

Six Young Lord.

Six Young Lord?

Then tell me what he looks like.

He...

He is...

Kind of obscure.

Obscure?

Be more specific.

You can barely sense his presence.

One will hardly see him among a crowd.

Even if he stands in front of you,

you may not recognize him.

He's kind of invisible in the palace.

This is quite an accurate description.

When I meet him someday,

I'll ask him to reward you.

Don't bother. I'm a mere poison tester.

Well, everything is done here.

I should go.

What... What's wrong with you?

Old problem. Stomach ache.

Stomach ache?

Stomach ache. Then go see an imperial physician.

Come on.

Get up.

Hurry. Let's go see an imperial physician.

Are you all right?

One, two, three

- I'll get up by myself.
- No. Let me help you.

Your sleeve.

Now, I'm suffering more than a stomach ache.

Turn left.

I don't remember which room he lives in.

I don't know who he is.

I don't know if he's getting any better either.

I meant to take him to the Imperial Hospital.

But he said he had business to do

and asked me to get him back to Young Lords' Mansion.

When he had a terrible stomach ache,

why did he still go back there?

Was he trying to tell on me?

Will I be beheaded?

You won't. You won't.

Don't be scared.

You don't know him.

He doesn't know you either.

Today is the Selection Day.

There are so many girls in the palace.

Even if he wants to investigate, he may not get to us.

It's getting dark soon.

Before it gets dark,

the sedan will come and take you out of the palace.

When you're in Ji State which is so far away from here,

how can they catch you?

If I can make it back home,

it's the season to eat lotus roots.

I wonder if I can eat any.

Miss Li.

Miss Li, the sedan is waiting for you at the gate.

So quickly?

I didn't really expect that.

This is great.

It's hard to live in Xin Palace.

You'll be on your own.

Be very cautious.

- I should go.
- Okay.

I'm leaving.

When I'm home, I'll send you the lotus roots.

I'll use a big bag and send many lotus roots to you.

Hurry. Everyone's waiting.

The sedan...

Why is it red?

Of course, it's red.

You're the first girl to have a marriage with a young lord by the order of His Lordship.
