=Romance of a Twin Flower=

=Episode 26=

I have always admired

Her Ladyship's craftsmanship.

But face creams

work differently

on different people.

And I have

my own face cream.

Try it now.

Your Lordship...

You don't want it?

I do, of course.

It's from you, Your Lordship.

I would certainly love it.

But these days,

my skin feels bad.

So...

Let me help you.

No, thanks, Your Lordship.

You knew the user

would be paralyzed

or even dead right away!

Your Lordship,

I don't know what you're talking about.

Please don't force me.

Force you?

Your Ladyship, I...

You don't dare to admit

what you've done, huh?

I'm innocent.

Did Her Ladyship

tell you something?

I can confront her.

Under such circumstances,

you're still lying?

Lying?

Your Lordship,

you know me.

I'm always loyal

to you.

Since you and I

got married,

you've never

cared about me.

But it doesn't matter.

As long as I can stay by your side,

I would be satisfied.

But,

to make Her Ladyship happy,

you accuse me of something

I didn't do.

My heart would hurt, too.

That year,

for you,

I even lost my virginity.

Can Nie Sangyu do that?

What's exactly the truth

of the virginity thing?

You ran away from home

and your father asked me to get you back.

I accidentally saw you be humiliated.

With sympathy, I married you.

But are you really as innocent

as you appear to be?

Nie Sangyu was lashed.

Was it you behind it?

No.

Did she stab you at the wedding?

No.

Or did you pounce at her?

I didn't.

Those bandits...

Did you arrange them?

I always love you, Your Lordship.

Every day, you and Her Ladyship

have been intimate.

I have to pretend

I didn't care about that

and I have to remain generous.

I also have feelings.

Nie Sangyu is in no case

better than me!

The evidence is overwhelming.

Tanxiang confessed everything.

You'll now be sent back to the capital

for the Court of Judicial Review.

Ning Yuxuan!

Miss Wen...

Now that you don't trust me,

I will

kill myself to prove my innocence!

Are you done performing?

Take her away.

Yes, sir.

Go.

Ning Yuxuan!

Miss Wen!

All the farces

should come to an end.

Your timing couldn't be better.

Tanxiang confessed everything.

Wen Wan had someone

poison Feiwan Face Cream

so that you would be

utterly discredited.

I just didn't expect

she would even

sacrifice others' lives

just to

frame me.

She really hates me.

She hates you

because of me,

after all.

If I hadn't

married her,

there wouldn't be so much trouble, right?

Our families used to be old friends.

After my father was killed,

we seldom communicated.

But over one year ago,

her father suddenly came to me.

He said she ran away from home

and asked me to look for her in the suburbs.

- Miss Wen! - Miss Wen!

Miss Wen, where are you?

- Miss Wen! - Miss Wen!

Where are you?

Miss Wen!

Your Lordship!

Miss Wen!

Your Lordship,

I kind of heard someone

scream ahead of us.

A lady, I think.

Let's go check it out.

Miss Wen!

Go wait out there.

Don't touch me. Stay off!

Miss Wen.

Mr. Ning?

I quarreled with my father

and ran out alone.

Unexpectedly, I met some bandits

and they dragged me here.

Failing to resist,

I was raped.

I took a dagger with me.

So, when he wasn't noticing,

I stabbed him.

What do I do, Mr. Ning?

I killed him. What do I do?

I killed him.

You were protecting herself.

You would be all right.

I can't be taken to the court.

Don't.

Why did you stop me?

I lost my virginity

and even killed a man.

If I'm taken to the court,

my father and I would live with shame.

Mr. Ning, I beg you.

Don't let anyone else

know this.

Will you?

I beg you.

All right.

I promise you.

I've lost my virginity.

Even if I married someone,

he would

know about this.

Failing to explain,

I'll have to die.

Mr. Ning, what can I do?

Only you can help me.

What do I do?

Please help me.

I beg you. Help me, please.

Under such circumstances,

you can marry me first.

After everything is over,

I'll think of another way.

Surprisingly,

she had such an experience.

It's about her reputation.

So, I never told anyone

why I married her.

Got it.

But when she asked the servants

to lash you,

I started to realize

she wasn't as innocent

as she appeared to be.

I learned much later

that she was behind this.

For the sake of our family friendship,

I had planned to let her go.

But later,

Haoxue Cosmetics was on fire.

After that,

I had her investigated.

Who would know it was even her

who arranged the rape thing?

That man wasn't a bandit,

but an innocent woodcutter.

She had

such crazy love for you.

She killed an innocent man.

Is it really love?

With irrefutable evidence,

they would be punished, anyway.

Don't worry.

No one would

scheme against you anymore.

Hope everything would be all right.

Herbs should be planted

(Liu's Village) according to circumstances.

What does that mean?

Look, for example...

This.

Wild chrysanthemum.

Wild chrysanthemum?

And dandelion.

They can be planted

even in the wilderness.

It's easy to plant them

and they can easily survive.

But

we've never planted any herbs before.

Yeah.

What if we fail

to plant them well?

- Yeah. - Yeah.

Don't worry.

There's a plant

named herbal medicine.

Have you heard about it?

It's easy to be planted.

And we can start

with it.

I'll regularly

hire some men

with rich planting experience

to give you lectures.

- Nice. - Sounds great.

That's more like it.

Awesome.

Come on, ladies.

Listen.

From this day on,

your village will be

the supplier of Haoxue Cosmetics.

I'll buy all your herbal medicine.

- Great. - Terrific! Terrific!

In this way,

you won't worry

that you can't sell the herbal medicine.

And I don't need to worry

about the supplier problem.

Right?

- Yes. - Yes.

This is great.

I promise

you'll live a good life

with enough food and drinks.

- Nice. - Wonderful.

Oh, great.

Our life

will be better.

- Yes. - That's right.

We'll live a great life.

- Terrific. - How wonderful!

Look, look.

Knowing you would leave Shuiyan House,

these men, old or young,

nearly flocked

to my place.

- Yeah, Miss Shui. - Yeah, Miss Shui.

- Don't leave. - Don't. Don't leave.

All right.

I'll come back and see you.

By the way,

you can

take these flowers.

They're yours.

But...

But...

Fine.

Take the flowers.

My girl,

reconsider it, will you?

Think about it.

As the best lady of Shuiyan House,

if you give a farewell performance,

a lot of men would break their necks

to watch it.

How about

I give you 50% of the income?

No.

I'll give you 70%.

What do you say?

At last, you are

turning generous.

I'm always generous, OK?

Unfortunately,

this time,

I have to be generous, too.

My farewell performance

has been reserved.

Reserved?

Come on.

Who's got that honor?

There you are.

Have others not arrived yet?

For tonight's performance,

you're the only audience.

How's my dance?

Wonderful.

Gui Bai,

you know what?

I always had a wish,

to have

my own house.

And in the house,

I could dance for the man I love.

If you like it,

I can always dance for you.

Don't bother, Miss Shui.

Having watched you

dance for me alone,

I feel already honored.

I...

Actually, I had to be very brave

to leave Shuiyan House.

And it's you

who made me that brave.

Thank you, Miss Shui.

If I'm the one

who made you leave this place,

I would appreciate it.

But I've got work to do.

I have to go.

Gui Bai!

Do you really not know

my feelings for you?

Or...

Do you also mind

what I used to be

like all the other men?

I've never minded

what you used to be.

In this case,

why do you not dare to face

our relationship?

(I...)

(I can't give you a happy life.)

You get me wrong.

For you,

I have no other feelings

but appreciation.

Why is it so tiring

to teach others to plant herbs?

When the herbs grow

and you have to collect them,

you would be more exhausted.

My Lady,

I can't do that.

Think about Muxu.

She's tall

and she must be strong.

Let her do that.

Sang Shen, you spoke ill of me again.

Muxu,

what have you got for me?

You must be hungry, Your Ladyship.

Food is ready.

Muxu, it's so cruel of you.

This is what you've got for me?

Your Ladyship, you have no idea.

The death anniversary

of the old master is drawing nearer.

Everyone has to go vegetarian for three days.

Death anniversary?

You enjoy the food alone.

I'll go check on him.

Ning Yuxuan.

Ning...

Wake up.

Ning Yuxuan.

You're awake?

Did you have a nightmare again?

Get back to sleep, then.

I should go.

Could you

lie in bed

for a while?

What?

Lie...

When I had a nightmare,

did I hurt you?

No.

But...

Why did you have a nightmare again?

Is this the reason

you never

share a bed with anyone else?

If anyone knows this secret,

she would be killed

or have to stick with me all her life,

keeping this secret.

Which do you pick?

Don't tease me.

Since I was little,

I've had this problem.

The doctor that I was jarred.

So, I always have nightmares.

Always.

Anything to do with your father?

When my father was killed,

I was right there.

Father, go!

Can anybody help us?

Come help us!

Help my father!

Somebody!

Father!

Father, get up!

I will take you home!

Does anybody help us?

Father!

Back then,

he took me to enlist the Tea Gang.

But Cai Wenzheng, chief of the Tea Gang,

regretted his decision.

Right in front of me,

they killed my father.

I was five years old then.

All by myself,

I dragged my father home.

Since then,

I've never

slept soundly.

The hatred

has been torturing me.

Then, the nightmares...

They keep me restless all the time.

Sorry.

I shouldn't have reminded you

of such sad things.

I finally know

why you're scared of fire.

I'm doing a lot better.

Not very scared of fire now.

So, I'll have

fewer nightmares.

Right?

From now on,

I'll always be with you.

If your father

comes again to your dream tonight,

I'll tell him

that Ning Yuxuan

has grown up.

And he's no longer alone.

He has me.

He's living a better life

and everything will be even better.

I also want to tell your father

to rest assured.

I'll promise him something, too.

I'll promise him

I would take care of you

for the rest of your life.

Sir.

Look at this.

This wedding dress

has billowing hemlines

and a widened girdle.

It can emphasize the graceful waist

of the bride.

And check this one.

This dress

has a widened neckline.

It can magnify

the bride's delicate neck.

Your Lordship, are you picking the wedding dress

for Her Ladyship?

Look. Which one do you like?

Here's more.

They...

They all look good.

Then take your time.

How inconvenient!

So many styles.

Which one shall I pick?

Every girl

wants to be

nicely dressed

at her wedding.

They have their own favorite styles.

Take your time.

(Which style does she like?)

I've been selling dresses for years

and I usually see

a girl and her friend

come to pick the wedding dress.

Seldom do I see a man

pick the dress for his bride.

Gentleman,

true love is precious.

Take your time.

Gui Bai.

Invite Miss Shui out tomorrow

to help me with this.

Go.

But Your Lordship,

Haoxue Cosmetics isn't far.

If you go personally,

you'll look more sincere.

I...

I don't want my wife to notice it.

After all,

I want her to be surprised.

There you go.

Gui Bai,

you decide

if I can have a happy life.

Fine.

In this case,

I'll get her here for you.

Good.

What?

Miss Shui.

What did you come for?

Here. Try some.

For Her Ladyship, huh?

She's in the backyard.

No.

You didn't come for Her Ladyship

or for some shopping.

You can't be coming for me, either.

I came...

I...

I...

I'm quite busy here.

If you don't mind,

please leave.

What do you think, ladies?

Do you have something better?

Better?

Try this, then.

Our new product,

Shuilan Face Cream.

Here.

Check it out.

You try some, too.

Nice. It smells great.

Do you like it?

Then...

We'll take two.

All right.

Come on.

Here.

Thank you.

Take care.

You...

You can check this one.

(At one tomorrow afternoon,)

(come alone)

(to Haifang Clothing Shop.)

Miss Shui.

Nerd.

At one tomorrow afternoon,

come alone to Haifang Clothing Shop.

Who invited you?

Gui Bai just came.

He left this.

Gui...

Gui Bai?

At last?

He finally invited you.

Tomorrow,

do you want me to give you

- some romance or surprises? - No.

And then...

He... He invited me alone.

And Gui Bai is timid.

What if you go

and scare him?

Do I look so scary?

Fine.

I'll stay in the shop

and expect the good news

of your smooth date.

(At one tomorrow afternoon, come alone to Haifang Clothing Shop.)

Show me the account book.

Wrong numbers here.

Correct them.

Miss,

what can I do for you?

Browse as you wish.

No, thank you.

I'm waiting for someone.

Waiting?

For whom?

Miss Shui.

Your Lordship?

Why are you here too?

What?

Where's Gui Bai?

Actually,

he invited you here for me.

So, she is

your bride, huh?

She's gorgeous.

No wonder you love her so much.

No, Ma'am.

No.

You get us wrong.

You get us wrong.

Show us some dresses.

All right.

Get to the point, Your Lordship.

I'll try my best to help.

Actually,

I want you to do me a favor.

I want to marry my wife

very officially.

So, what others have,

she should have it, too.

But it's way too complicated

to pick a wedding dress.

So, I want you to help me

with it.

Oh, I see.

You want me

to try the dress on, right?

If you trust me,

I can do it.

I trust you, of course.

Thank you, Miss Shui.

You're welcome.

Here, sir. Check this out.

Umm...

Your Lordship.

Miss, this dress

looks perfect on you.

Thank you.

Your Lordship,

Her Ladyship

would look better in it.

What do you think?

I'll take this one.

Ma'am, the bill, please.

All right.

Your Lordship,

you made a great effort.

Her Ladyship would be happy.

I...

I should go.

Miss Shui.

About this,

my wife...

Could you...

Don't worry.

I'll keep it secret.

Thank you, Miss Shui.

Why didn't you say anything?

Your Lordship.

When Miss Shui knew

it wasn't you who invited her,

she looked very disappointed.

Even I could see

her feelings for you.

What about you?

Your Lordship,

I don't understand the love thing.

What misgivings do you have?

I'm a guard

who leads a dangerous life.

But Miss Shui

wants a stable home.

I don't dare to give her any promise.

Gui Bai,

since little,

you've been working for me

as a loyal fighter

and risking your life with me.

But you should also

have your own life.

Fighting and killing

shouldn't be everything of your life.

Understand?

Say no more, Your Lordship.

I've made up my mind.

I'm so clumsy

that I can only do one thing very well in my life.

And that is

to protect you, Your Lordship.

I...

Fool!

Your Highness.

I summoned you

to give you a mission.

I heard the Transport Commissioner

for the Imperial Supplier Contest

is still vacant.

Transport Commissioner?

To counterbalance Ning Yuxuan,

that's the best position.

To control Haifang,

I invested a lot of money

just to support

the Sea Trade Guild

and the Dragon Gang.

Now,

Ning Yuxuan manages the Shipping Department.

He's like taking me by the throat.

Your Highness, you mean

I should be the Transport Commissioner

and counterbalance Ning Yuxuan

in the name of supervision?

If I become the Transport Commissioner,

others wouldn't feel bad.

His Majesty will receive fewer complaints, too.

I will

try my best to strive for it

and I won't let you down.

I also heard

if a store won the first place

in the contest,

its manager

would be the new chairman.

What do you think?

I plan to support one of my men

to remain the chairman

of the Sea Trade Guild

and get back your losses

in Haifang.

What do you think the chances are?

I will

burn my bridges.

The herbs are ready.

There you are, Mr. Qin.

Lianxue!

How could you carry

such heavy things?

Let me help you.

Come on. Be seated.

Umm...

Your Ladyship, Miss Shui,

would you like some preserves?

No.

No, thank you.

Mr. Qin,

you keep coming here

in the last two days.

If you have nothing else to do,

how about I hire you?

You have no job, anyway.

Who said that?

I'm getting busy soon.

Come on.

Actually, I came

to tell you something serious.

Are you sure?

Of course.

Come over.

What is it?

Listen,

His Majesty will have this year's Imperial Supplier Contest

held in Haifang.

Haifang?

It's absolutely true.

Ms. Nie,

your Feiwan Face Cream is

so famous in Haifang.

If you win the contest,

you can be an imperial supplier.

What a wonderful opportunity!

Yeah.

By then, we will make

a great deal of money.

All you care about is money.

I do the accounts.

I have to care about money.

That's what makes me like you. Frugality.

Let's go do the accounts.

All right.

What do you think?

What do you think?

We should take part.

I agree.

It's such a great chance

and our shop must take part.

Yeah.

But Ning Yuxuan

has never told me about this.

And lately,

he's been elusive.

Weird.

I'm talking to you.

Did you hear?

Yes.

I think he might...

For selecting imperial suppliers,

there's a lot of work.

If he forgets to tell you,

that's understandable.

But I think he's...

Customers have come.

I'll attend them.

But I haven't...

Ladies, come this way.

Muxu,

I have a question.

Have you realized

that Ning Yuxuan has been sneaky lately?

He seems to be a little bit weird.

Very elusive.

You noticed that, too?

Is he keeping something from me?

I...

I don't think so.

He isn't?

What's wrong, Your Ladyship?

But I feel...

Oh, I see.

He takes charge

of the Imperial Supplier Contest

and he must be knowing

a lot about recruitment, right?

But he doesn't want me to ask.

So, he's been avoiding me.

That must be it.

Then Your Ladyship,

will you ask His Lordship about it?

I...

I won't, of course.

Am I that kind of person?

I would never get information

by using my identity.

I'll do a fair competition.

Get to your work.

Ning Yuxuan, are you in?

Ning Yuxuan?

I'll see what you're doing secretly

behind my back.

Red organza?

Why does he have this?

How dare you, Ning Yuxuan!

You keep a mistress, huh?

Good for you.

I caught you, huh?

Look. Look.

Whose dress is this?

What the...

And one more.

How dare you...

It's

a man's wedding robe...
