OST: Jun Jiu Ling - Deng Yujun

♫ Sighing at how fleeting life is, the swords tell of the scars ♫

♫ After our meeting, I'm unwilling to separate ♫

♫ Journeying alone and cold, the past is a secret guarded closely ♫

♫ Hide the love and hate of tonight, stow away the naivety ♫

♫ Meeting an old friend, we look at each other as the memories emerge ♫

♫ Only daring to show a bit of gentleness in dreams ♫

♫ This kiss caused the emotional entanglement with you to surge ♫

♫ The warmth in the rough birch disturbs the stars ♫

♫ The art of healing become edges used to guard the mountains and rivers ♫

♫ Hurt and hatred have not taken over ♫

♫ Unwilling to let so much hatred be in this chaotic world, a heart of sincerity in exchange for eternity ♫

♫ Journeying together, waiting for some prosperity ♫

♫ Rewrite this life because looking back, the heart aches ♫

♫ For the rest of this life, running in the field with you without any regards, waiting for dawn ♫

♫ Dawn... ♫

[Jun Jiu Ling]

[Episode 5]

Chengyu, look over there.

Chengyu, it's cold at night. Do you want a handwarmer?

No need.

Sister, Chengyu is a lot better now, he's not that afraid of the cold anymore.

- Too much heat may cause dryness for him. - Okay, we'll do as Zhenzhen says.

Little Brother.

The Fire God temple is ahead.

- It's the most lively there at every Lantern Festival. - Yes.

Will Mother worry about others seeing me?

You didn't do anything wrong. What are you scared of?

Relax.

- There is an endless stream of people here to see the lanterns today. - Yes.

Yunzhao, you'd be missing out if you didn't come today. You should thank me.

Exactly.

Why is it so lively ahead? Are they showing the best lanterns now?

Right. I heard as well.

The lanterns this year have various styles, are unique, and are beautiful.

Let's go check it out.

Let's go take a look.

The festive lanterns this year are really nice.

Does Brother Wenming like to see lanterns in the daytime?

Seeing lanterns in the daytime?

I think that seeing lanterns in the daytime is a different kind of experience.

I don't have such refined interests. I only like

the grand view

of the many colors and bright lights.

You're still the same as always.

Yunzhao, look at that.

What should we do

if we encounter Miss Fang here today?

Right. What should we do?

Just act naturally. It'll be fine as long as we enjoy the view.

Even if people joke and talk about me,

what does that have to do with me?

He's indeed from the Ning family.

He minds his own business!

Grandmother, look over there.

Grandmother, later, I want to leave for a bit.

We're celebrating festivities today. Spread out, you don't have to stay with us.

Go see the lights. Go!

Go see the lights.

Go see the lights.

Let me help you, Miss.

- Chengyu, isn't it nice to be out here? - Yes.

Look over there.

Eleventh month, fifteenth day.

He's so skillful.

Four seasons, fifteenth day.

Person, fifteenth day.

Miss, where is the lantern you made? Are we there yet?

Don't worry.

We're almost there.

I just saw someone selling nuts. Do you want some? I'll go buy them.

Go ahead. I'll wait for you here.

Here you go.

I lost.

Everyone, is anyone else up for a challenge?

Chess master, don't challenge him just yet.

Wait for all of us to have had our fun.

Then you can take up the challenge and impress everyone.

I'll challenge you.

Do well, don't lose.

It'll be embarrassing.

Your chess skills are excellent and admirable.

I admit you outdid me.

No need to be modest.

"No need to be modest." I should say it to you instead.

Decisive and thoughtful, you think twice before making a move.

Your skills are truly superior to mine. It wasn't just a fluke.

But why didn't you move the last piece?

Did you try to avoid embarrassing me?

Of course not.

It was obvious who won. Why would I do that?

You can tell someone's personality by how they make moves. Your style was elegant.

I had a good time playing with you today.

I'm Ning Yunzhao. Miss, may I know your name?

So, you are Young Master Ning?

That's me.

May I know who your teacher is?

My teacher was my deceased father.

Where do you live?

Will I have another chance to play you?

Your chess skills are quite good.

You are more impressive than I thought.

This is for you.

Are you comforting me since I lost?

I wish you a happy birthday.

After all, he once had a marriage contract with Zhenzhen.

If Zhenzhen were alive, she would definitely be satisfied with the marriage.

I gave him the lantern on behalf of Zhenzhen.

Yunzhao!

I lost.

When did you receive a lantern?

Who gave this to you?

I just met a lady who beat me at chess.

- Beat you? - You played chess?

When did you play chess?

That doesn't sound right. You, a child prodigy, could remember all the chess moves you'd seen at the age of eight

and ranked level four, Understanding Changes, at the age of twenty.

Which woman in the world could beat you in chess?

Which family is she from?

I want to know too.

Miss! Wait for me, Miss!

I finally found you. I thought I'd lost you in the crowd.

Where's the lantern you made?

It's right there.

Why is it so dim?

This lantern is a chessboard, embellished with pieces all over.

Now, Black is just one step away from winning this game.

If someone can make the right move, the lantern will be lit up.

- Give it a try. - Let me try.

Hold on.

Not everyone can give it a try.

Look.

The 5,000-tael note in this glazed crystal cup is the prize.

- 5,000 taels– - Whoever lights up the lantern can win the prize.

- 5,000 taels? - 5,000 taels?

You can give it a try for 10 taels.

If you have no money... get out of here!

[Win the Chess Match]

Miss, do you think the 5,000 taels is...

Exactly.

The money the Ning family gave you for breaking off the engagement...

Did you use the money the Ning family gave you for breaking off the engagement as the prize?

Does it mean if we lose, we'll lose everything?

Don't worry. Very few people in the world can solve it.

Good, good. Then I can sit back and watch.

What do you think, Second Brother?

Isn't it crowded with lanterns lit up at night?

Even though Zezhou is small,

the Lantern Festival here can compare with the one in the capital.

Second Brother, you've been exhausted lately. Just relax.

Also, someone set up a chess game today

where you can give it a try for 10 taels.

If you win, you can take 5,000 taels home.

I think I can win it for sure. I'll win it for sure.

- Second Brother. - Baotang.

Second Brother, look.

I have something serious to do. Don't take me

to irrelevant places like this.

Second Brother, we've arrived. It's right there, Second Brother.

Don't. Don't go. Let's give it a try.

I'm sorry.

The Fang family's cousin set up a chess game over there. Let's take a look.

- Let's go. - Let's go.

Chess game?

With 10 taels,

you can only buy high-quality rouge from a high-end cosmetics shop in Zezhou.

You can only buy a Dingyao tea set.

You can only pay for a table of a top-notch feast at Luyang Restaurant.

You can only buy an ink brush made with wolf fur from the north.

Miss, did you teach him to say that?

No.

Now we've been in Zezhou for a while, our money's tight indeed.

Second Brother, you've changed.

Have I changed?

No, no, no. You haven't changed. You haven't changed.

What are you looking at?

With 10 taels, you have a chance of winning 5,000 taels.

This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

This lantern watcher is pretty knowledgeable.

It looks like he's always traveling.

I'm a businessman. I'll give it a try!

Miss, we've made 10 taels.

Look.

- Hurry. - I'll try.

Yunzhao.

Yunzhao, you've excelled in chess since you were little.

Why don't you give it a try?

Whoever set it up is a clever person with brilliant chess skills and in an extraordinary state of mind.

But this game... I can't solve it.

You can't solve it?

Just give it a try first.

This is a chance of winning 5,000 taels with 10 taels.

If you don't go, I'll go in a bit.

This game can't be solved.

Chengyu, this year's lanterns are more beautiful than ever before.

Look how joyful it is.

- That's right. - Grandmother, you see how pretty that is?

Look at that!

Right?

Grandmother, do you know where Zhenzhen went?

Why hasn't she come back?

It's so crowded and she's probably so happy that she's forgotten it.

Then, do you know where her lantern is?

I don't.

I really don't know.

Grandmother, I'm a bit tired. Let's go home.

Chengyu, are you okay?

I'm fine.

You're tired indeed. We've been browsing for such a long time.

Go. Let's head home. Let's head home.

- Grandmother, I haven't had enough fun. - Let's go back, Sister.

You see how pretty that is?

Hurry.

I'll try.

- Nobody wants to try now. - Exactly.

I'll do it!

Only 10 taels.

That's fine as long as we have fun.

- He's not good. - He dared to give it a try despite his caliber.

- I'll do it. - Nobody can solve it. You're just a sugar figure seller. What's the point of trying?

- Somebody's playing. Don't disturb them. - Why give it a try?

Exactly.

If I light up this lantern, you'll be impressed.

He seems quite confident.

- Make a move. - Hurry up and make a move!

- Just take the money back. - Can you do it?

- Exactly. Can you do it? - Hurry up and make a move.

Make a move now.

- Do you think it's easy to make money? - Just place it somewhere.

Can you do it?

It lit up! It's lit!

He is so good.

He did it!

I figured out the chess game! I did it!

I figured out the chess game!

I did it. I did it!

I did it!

I figured out the chess game!

Where is the money?

Does he know?

That's right.

Whether I know how to play or not, I'm the one who got it nevertheless.

What is he saying?

Deliver the rest of the taels to my house.

Return our money to us!

Miss!

All our money is gone.

Five thousand taels.

How long will it take to earn that back?

Miss.

Miss.

I was only joking before.

It's only five thousand taels. You are so brilliant,

we'll earn that back very soon.

I wasn't thinking about the money.

Watch where you are going.

Miss.

- Steward Gao. - This is the person who was watching the lantern, Lei Zhonglian.

What are you doing?

It's all right, Steward Gao.

We met last night. You did very well.

Miss, you were at the scene yesterday?

Since I made the lantern, naturally I needed to take a look.

Then does Miss know who won at the end?

I heard people calling him Chen Qi.

Right, his name is Chen Qi.

- He is a sugar-figure peddler. He actually... - Doesn't know how to play chess.

He doesn't know to play chess?

Then he scammed us.

Master Lei, we asked you here today to check with you as well.

Yesterday, did you see anything suspicious at the end.

I'm only paid for watching the lantern.

Liu'er.

Last night,

- Can I ask you a question? - What question?

These five thousand taels are enough for your entire lifetime's spending.

Why didn't you just directly take it?

Young Master, who are you looking down at?

It was agreed on who gets it.

If you hadn't advised me just before, I would have placed it wrong.

I wouldn't even be able to earn those couple hundred taels.

You actually kept your words.

Give us the money.

What money?

I'm missing one sugar figure there.

Look at this person.

Two men in their twenties.

One called the other Second Brother, is that right?

Since you already knew, why did you ask me to come?

- This... - No...

Lei Zhonglian. Lei Zhonglian! You!

Where does Master Lei work?

He watches the vehicles at the money exchange.

He's been with the Fang family for quite a number of years.

Miss, you lost so much money yesterday,

aren't you angry?

What is there to be angry over?

They used their true ability to win the chess game.

It doesn't matter who figured it out.

Brother!

That's not right.

Brother!

Yanyan, you're being mischievous again.

Brother,

what is interesting about this chess game? You've been pondering over it since last night.

It's an ancient chess game. I was trying to solve it.

My brother is so brilliant. You can surely solve it.

Brother, this lantern is pretty.

I'm taking it to my room. I want to make a copy of it.

You can't.

I'm not taking it.

I will just borrow it for a few days. I will return it.

If you like this, I will buy a new one.

Is there a matter you need me for?

Mother asked me when you plan to return to the capital.

I'll leave in a few days. I'll go tell Mother personally.

Then I'll get going, Brother.

All right.

You came in without prior notification.

What is that about?

Santao asked me to come.

I saw that you were in a good mood, so I didn't interrupt.

Did you have a good time last night?

It wasn't bad.

No wonder you didn't return.

Of course, you had fun without my annoying presence.

You are mad?

All right, it's my fault. I was too focused on the lanterns.

I forgot the time and didn't come back to be with you.

I also know that you lost money, a large amount.

You know all about it, too?

I know it. Grandmother told me yesterday.

She also told me not to mention this matter in front of you.

Yet you brought it up?

I wanted to.

Come.

You are recovering well.

Soon, you can do a medicinal soak.

I don't need you for the medicinal soak. Let Santao do that.

Santao also has to listen to me. Anyways,

- I will be marrying you soon. You needn't be shy anymore. - You...

[Clouded Dream of the Lake Inn]

Young Master, you have a guest.

Miss Jun, why are you here?

You spent all night trying to solve my game just to wait for me to come over today, didn't you?

What do you mean?

Do sugar figures taste good, Second Brother?

Miss Jun is very smart.

I came to ask you how you figured out my chess game.

I can answer you, but only after you answer my question.

Sure, ask.

How did De Shengchang start making a fortune?

Why do you ask this?

I saw that De Shengchang's business is booming,

so I want to learn how to do business and make money.

You came to the lantern shop looking for me.

You also managed to win my 5,000 taels at the Lantern Festival and tricked me into coming here. Is it worth it?

It's worth it.

I'm not done asking yet. When it comes to cargo,

there's a list of customers

showing their destinations and names.

De Shengchang deals with many customers,

there should be documents.

As expected, he's really digging into the secret of Zezhou.

Young Master, you think too highly of me.

How could an outsider like me know about such confidential information?

So can you answer my question?

Because I am smart.

- You... - Forget it. I will stop teasing you.

Actually, my father told me.

When my father taught me this chess game,

I listened very, very carefully.

Because I am smart, I understood it right away.

The audience who watched us playing all praised me.

They said, "Wow! You're very smart!

You're an invincible, extremely intelligent hero."

I...

So, I am really smart.

Second Brother, Yunxiao Pavilion has figured out the medicinal herbs.

- What is it for? - This prescription is definitely for chronic disease.

But it was rare to put so many herbs together.

They have never seen anything like this.

In the Fang family, there is only one person

who has chronic disease.

The dying Young Master Fang?

[Fu Xiang Medicine Shop]

Put it all to the side.

- Place them. - Got it, shopkeeper.

- Miss Jun, you are back? - Yes, shopkeeper.

Is the prescription that I reserved ready?

It is here. Wait for a moment.

- I will get it for you. - Thank you.

Miss Jun, can I ask you

who prescribed it for you?

Is there anything wrong?

There is nothing wrong. It's just strange.

Separately, each herb is good.

But I don't know why mixing more than 10 herbs together

is useful. These are all detox herbs.

One or two detox herbs should be sufficient. But mixing more than 10 herbs

is an overdose of medicine.

It can backfire.

Miss Jun, it not only cannot detox,

it may even harm the patient.

Thank you for your concern. I know what I'm doing. It should be fine.

Since you know,

please take it.

- Thank you. - Miss Jun, have a good day.

[Satin Silk Fabrics]

Why do I bump into you wherever I go?

Is it difficult to bump into me?

You're detoxifying the young master, right?

Why do you always think you're so clever?

How do you explain the purpose of the prescription?

I am ignorant. I don't know

what disease needs more than 10 detox herbs?

As a doctor, I bought it to research herbs.

Is it not right?

That's true as well.

But see if what I'm thinking makes sense as well.

The Fang family has only one son for three generations.

They've all been cursed.

I heard that this young master won't live past 16 years old.

It turns out that he's been deeply intoxicated.

If it occurs to one generation, it is an accident. Two generations, a coincidence.

But if it happens to three generations,

isn't it weird?

I don't know what you are talking about. It could be destiny.

Then, could it be this way?

The male curse on the Fang family is actually artificially created.

The Young Master Fang was actually secretly poisoned.

Young Master, you are smart.

But it is not inappropriate for me to heal Chengyu.

It has nothing to do with you. It's none of your concern.

Miss, don't worry. I won't leak it.

I need a favor from you.

Use your identity to help me check the list

of the Fang family's cargo customers over the years.

[Fang Residence]

Miss Jun,

your letter.

- Where is it from? - The Ning family.

Miss Jun, there is a misunderstanding between the Fang and Ning families.

Please come to Sky Room 3 of Jinyun Restaurant on the double third festival for a chat. (T/N: Festival celebrated on the 3rd day of the 3rd month of the Chinese calendar)

Ning Yunzhao.

Jun Zhenzhen, I don't believe that you can't be fooled.

Yanyan, your idea is wonderful.

She'll definitely show up with Master Ning's letter.

At that time, she'll lose her innocent little reputation.

Will she still dare to put her hopes on Master Ning after that?

That's right.

But... are we going too far?

- Aren't you afraid— - So what?

She offended us first.

She first cheated my family of silver and then embarrassed us again and again.

This is called taking revenge.

Right.

Miss, your tea.

Miss, will you accept Young Master Ning's invitation?

[To Jun Zhenzhen]

Although the letter came from Young Master Ning personal servant,

he might not be the one who wrote it.

Why?

Young Master Ning was born into a gentry family. He would act openly and appropriately.

Even if there really was something that couldn't be talked about at home,

he still probably wouldn't have invited me to a place that would make girls uncomfortable.

Of course, this is just my guess.

Why didn't you let Mu Jin pass me a message as usual, but ask me to meet you here?

There are so many people watching in the residence.

This is too risky.

This situation is very serious. We should talk in person.

If anything goes wrong, even if Mu Jin can afford that, can you?

Cousin, then please say it quickly.

I'm really worried that Mu Jin can't handle it on her own if this takes too long.

I checked carefully at the Lantern Festival last night.

I realized that Chengyu's condition is not improving.

He still looked half-dead.

It seems that the marriage will not be of much help. It won't save his life.

But the only thing that could go wrong now is, if Jun Zhenzhen is using the marriage as an excuse

to get pregnant with the fourth generation male of the Fang family...

Cousin, what do you mean by that?

If Jun Zhenzhen dies,

in such a short period of time, where is the Fang family

going to find another girl who will willingly marry for the sake of warding off his illness?

You're going to kill Jun Zhenzhen?

Nobody will kill her.

It's just that she will get unlucky and have a little accident.
