[Crown Prince's Residence]
26
00:01:44,860 --> 00:01:45,860
How is Anle doing
27
00:01:46,340 --> 00:01:47,660
lately?
28
00:01:48,940 --> 00:01:51,660
Did the Crown Prince send you to check in on her?
29
00:01:53,500 --> 00:01:55,220
No one would dare mention her name
30
00:01:55,340 --> 00:01:56,340
with His Highness around.
31
00:01:56,900 --> 00:01:58,340
It's me who wants to know.
32
00:01:58,700 --> 00:02:00,660
After all, she has been nice to me.
33
00:02:01,820 --> 00:02:03,540
After what happened,
34
00:02:04,220 --> 00:02:05,700
everything has changed tremendously.
35
00:02:06,900 --> 00:02:08,100
I am worried about her.
36
00:02:09,300 --> 00:02:10,180
She is doing well.
37
00:02:10,700 --> 00:02:11,860
She asks about you.
38
00:02:13,020 --> 00:02:13,900
I'm glad to hear that.
39
00:02:16,700 --> 00:02:17,660
However,
40
00:02:17,900 --> 00:02:20,100
seeing how distant they are from each other now,
41
00:02:20,780 --> 00:02:21,780
it makes me feel sad.
42
00:02:23,100 --> 00:02:24,300
A lot has happened.
43
00:02:25,260 --> 00:02:26,860
Things can never be the same again.
44
00:02:44,420 --> 00:02:45,500
The weather is cold.
45
00:02:45,780 --> 00:02:48,060
I hope you take care, Your Highness.
46
00:02:49,620 --> 00:02:51,060
Thank you for the concern, Official Di.
47
00:02:53,780 --> 00:02:55,060
Even now,
48
00:02:56,060 --> 00:02:57,620
you still speak so politely to me.
49
00:02:59,060 --> 00:02:59,980
I am glad.
50
00:03:02,340 --> 00:03:03,700
From our first meeting in Jingnan
51
00:03:04,100 --> 00:03:05,340
to our reunion in the capital,
52
00:03:06,300 --> 00:03:08,500
you were plotting whenever you approached me.
53
00:03:10,420 --> 00:03:12,140
I knew you had ulterior motives,
54
00:03:13,780 --> 00:03:14,980
but because I trust you,
55
00:03:16,980 --> 00:03:18,340
I never pried.
56
00:03:22,260 --> 00:03:24,980
I'm grateful for your recognition
57
00:03:25,700 --> 00:03:26,780
and caring.
58
00:03:28,620 --> 00:03:29,620
At this point,
59
00:03:31,620 --> 00:03:33,700
if you think I've been
60
00:03:34,780 --> 00:03:36,340
a capable pawn in your bidding,
61
00:03:37,620 --> 00:03:39,060
could you be honest with me for once?
62
00:03:41,980 --> 00:03:42,780
Is there anything
63
00:03:43,780 --> 00:03:45,660
that you must do regardless of the price?
64
00:03:49,420 --> 00:03:51,140
I'm waiting for an apology.
65
00:03:52,260 --> 00:03:53,420
Unless he gives up his pride
66
00:03:53,420 --> 00:03:55,020
as the ruler of the nation,
67
00:03:55,780 --> 00:03:58,300
the truth about the wrongful execution
of the Di family
68
00:03:58,300 --> 00:03:59,900
will never be known to the world.

72
00:04:08,540 --> 00:04:09,300
Sorry.
73
00:04:11,860 --> 00:04:13,020
This apology
74
00:04:14,300 --> 00:04:15,740
is ten years overdue.
75
00:04:16,700 --> 00:04:17,740
Your Highness.
76
00:04:18,860 --> 00:04:20,260
I will get the apology I seek
77
00:04:20,460 --> 00:04:22,140
from His Majesty.
78
00:04:23,700 --> 00:04:25,700
My father didn't know about
79
00:04:27,260 --> 00:04:28,460
my grandmother's actions.
80
00:04:28,740 --> 00:04:30,420
If it weren't his intention,
81
00:04:30,460 --> 00:04:32,300
why wouldn't he give the Di family a chance
82
00:04:32,300 --> 00:04:33,260
to clear their name?
83
00:04:33,580 --> 00:04:35,420
My father, Marquis Jing'an,
84
00:04:35,500 --> 00:04:37,820
couldn't save the family even if he took his life!
85
00:04:38,260 --> 00:04:38,980
For ten years,
86
00:04:38,980 --> 00:04:41,180
not a single official in the court
ever spoke up for my father.
87
00:04:42,260 --> 00:04:44,220
Your Highness saved me,
88
00:04:44,700 --> 00:04:45,980
so I am grateful for that.
89
00:04:46,740 --> 00:04:48,460
But by doing so,
90
00:04:48,740 --> 00:04:50,300
you incited His Majesty's anger.
91
00:04:50,700 --> 00:04:52,020
You know very well
92
00:04:52,220 --> 00:04:54,300
what the cause of it is.
93
00:04:58,740 --> 00:05:00,220

It can't be resolved with only a few words.
129

is that we must stand against each other.

to cheer you up.

00:09:40,340 --> 00:09:42,460
The cake doesn't disappoint.
179
00:09:46,100 --> 00:09:47,660
It's time to get it together.

coming from the Northwestern borders?
183
00:10:13,420 --> 00:10:14,660
Nothing major.
184
00:10:15,020 --> 00:10:17,020
It's just that Northern Qin
has been pillaging strongholds
185
00:10:17,260 --> 00:10:18,660
at the borders.
186
00:10:20,020 --> 00:10:21,020
Indeed.
187
00:10:21,540 --> 00:10:23,260
Winter is colder than usual this year.
188
00:10:24,140 --> 00:10:26,140
Northern Qin is covered with frost.

00:10:26,260 --> 00:10:27,620
Nothing grows there.
190
00:10:28,260 --> 00:10:29,660
Even the cattle died of starvation.
191
00:10:30,540 --> 00:10:32,220
To survive, the people of Northern Qin
192
00:10:32,380 --> 00:10:33,660
must rob the southern strongholds.
193
00:10:34,140 --> 00:10:35,620
These cases have brought fear
194
00:10:36,260 --> 00:10:37,900
to the people of Jing.
195
00:10:38,660 --> 00:10:40,780
Our defense at the Northwestern border
has loosened.
196
00:10:41,020 --> 00:10:42,260
I fear the Northern Qin's military
197
00:10:42,660 --> 00:10:44,020
might seize the chance to stir up trouble.
198
00:10:50,900 --> 00:10:52,660
Are you reinforcing the security?
199
00:10:52,740 --> 00:10:53,660
Correct.
200
00:10:55,140 --> 00:10:56,340
The border garrisons
201
00:10:56,500 --> 00:10:57,620
are meant to defend the borders.
202
00:10:58,380 --> 00:11:00,700
There are openings and flaws
in the Northwestern border defense.
203
00:11:01,020 --> 00:11:02,540
It's hard to keep the two strongholds,
204
00:11:02,540 --> 00:11:04,100
Qingnan and Junxian, safe from enemies.
205
00:11:06,500 --> 00:11:07,740
I'm going inside to write up a letter.
206
00:11:08,100 --> 00:11:09,100
Send it to the Northwest afterward.
207
00:11:09,500 --> 00:11:10,340
Yes.
208
00:11:24,340 --> 00:11:26,340
What will you do against their plan to approach
209
00:11:27,380 --> 00:11:28,620
the Di family's old servants in the Northwest?
210
00:11:28,980 --> 00:11:30,180
Di Ziyuan was supposed to be
211
00:11:30,380 --> 00:11:32,460
the acquiescent Di Cheng'en.
212
00:11:32,740 --> 00:11:35,740
But now, she's the unyielding Ren Anle.
213
00:11:36,300 --> 00:11:39,300
Things are much more complicated now.
214
00:11:40,980 --> 00:11:42,620
The Empress Dowager passed away.
215
00:11:42,980 --> 00:11:44,340
Her death shook the court.
216
00:11:44,620 --> 00:11:46,580
Now is the time to act.
217
00:11:46,740 --> 00:11:48,700
Once the garrisons in Northwest are reinforced,
218
00:11:48,740 --> 00:11:50,860
all of our plans will go down the drain.
219
00:11:51,340 --> 00:11:53,340
If you get in the way of my plan,
220
00:11:53,740 --> 00:11:55,860
not even death can absolve your mistake.
221
00:11:58,500 --> 00:11:59,340
Your Highness.
222
00:12:00,460 --> 00:12:03,220
As I said, always be patient.
223
00:12:03,580 --> 00:12:05,620
The right timing has yet to come.
224
00:12:06,860 --> 00:12:07,980
Han Zhongyuan
225
00:12:08,380 --> 00:12:10,900
has been sitting on the throne for ten years.
226
00:12:11,300 --> 00:12:12,700
The Di family's tragedy won't be enough
227
00:12:12,700 --> 00:12:14,380
to dethrone him.
228
00:12:15,220 --> 00:12:16,740
We must let the flame
229
00:12:17,100 --> 00:12:18,620
burn even brighter.
230
00:12:20,100 --> 00:12:21,380
Your top priority
231
00:12:21,580 --> 00:12:23,580
is to help me take control of the Northwest,
232
00:12:23,860 --> 00:12:25,380
not to stir up trouble in the court.
233
00:12:25,620 --> 00:12:26,860
In that case,
234
00:12:27,340 --> 00:12:29,340
why not mobilize the troops?
235
00:12:29,340 --> 00:12:31,300
Take Anning hostage to control the troops.
236
00:12:31,700 --> 00:12:32,980
Then, you can finish her off.
237
00:12:33,220 --> 00:12:35,620
The Northwest will be devoid of a leader.
238
00:12:35,780 --> 00:12:37,740
It will be ours to take.
239
00:12:38,260 --> 00:12:39,340
If she is unwilling,
240
00:12:39,540 --> 00:12:40,700
this is too big a risk!
241
00:12:41,180 --> 00:12:42,580
Since we can't kill Anning
242
00:12:42,860 --> 00:12:45,100
or approach the Di family's former servants,
243
00:12:45,300 --> 00:12:47,500
bringing chaos to the imperial court of Jing
244
00:12:47,980 --> 00:12:50,220
is our top priority.
245
00:12:51,980 --> 00:12:53,380
We can spare Anning.
246
00:12:54,220 --> 00:12:56,940
But there is someone that must die.
247
00:12:58,740 --> 00:12:59,980
You want to kill Ren Anle?
248
00:13:00,340 --> 00:13:02,740
She is the sole survivor of the Di family.
249
00:13:02,860 --> 00:13:04,220
She is cunning.
250
00:13:04,580 --> 00:13:06,460
If we can't make her work for us,
251
00:13:07,180 --> 00:13:08,700
we must get rid of her before it's too late.
252
00:13:09,100 --> 00:13:10,580
We'll use Han Zhongyuan
253
00:13:10,860 --> 00:13:11,740
to eliminate her.
254
00:13:11,860 --> 00:13:14,060
That should incite people's dissatisfaction
255
00:13:14,060 --> 00:13:15,580
and cut off a loose end for us.
256
00:13:16,380 --> 00:13:18,620
She gave Han Zhongyuan a slap in the face
257
00:13:18,620 --> 00:13:21,300
in front of every official in the imperial court
258
00:13:21,300 --> 00:13:23,300
and caused the Empress Dowager's death.
259
00:13:23,860 --> 00:13:27,100
Even though the case
from ten years ago was overturned,
260
00:13:27,220 --> 00:13:30,340
it doesn't change the fact that the person
on Dai Mountain
261
00:13:30,980 --> 00:13:33,220
wasn't Ren Anle.
262
00:13:33,380 --> 00:13:37,220
That alone constitutes
the crime of deceiving the Emperor.
263
00:13:42,780 --> 00:13:45,060
[Lingxiang Pleasure House]
Fabrics! Have a look at the fabrics!
264
00:13:45,060 --> 00:13:45,940
Homemade chairs!
265
00:13:45,940 --> 00:13:47,700
Miss Di was born in a rural area,
266
00:13:47,700 --> 00:13:49,820
but she doesn't bow down to evil
and stands righteously.
267
00:13:50,180 --> 00:13:51,500
As for the Han family,
268
00:13:51,940 --> 00:13:53,940
the Crown Prince has a great reputation outside,
269
00:13:53,940 --> 00:13:56,180
but that doesn't hide
the imperial family's dirty secrets.
270
00:13:56,580 --> 00:13:58,300
Despite her young age, Miss Di is already
271
00:13:58,300 --> 00:13:59,940
known by everyone.
272
00:14:00,060 --> 00:14:02,940
The way I see it, she is just as capable
273
00:14:03,260 --> 00:14:04,220
as the legendary Di Shengtian.
274
00:14:04,460 --> 00:14:06,460
The Jing State will soon have
a second Di Shengtian.
275
00:14:06,460 --> 00:14:07,580
Yet another legend.
276
00:14:07,940 --> 00:14:09,700
His Majesty is filial to the Empress Dowager.
277
00:14:09,820 --> 00:14:11,300
Had she not taken her own life,
278
00:14:11,300 --> 00:14:13,180
who knows how this situation can be resolved.
279
00:14:13,540 --> 00:14:15,300
After committing such a heinous crime,
280
00:14:15,300 --> 00:14:16,820
she can't even give a sound explanation.
281
00:14:16,940 --> 00:14:18,460
As you wish,
282
00:14:19,060 --> 00:14:20,700
Miss Di has earned the hearts of the people.
283
00:14:21,060 --> 00:14:22,660
What else are you worried about?
284
00:14:25,060 --> 00:14:26,700
When did these radical scholars
285
00:14:27,060 --> 00:14:29,100
start gathering here?
286
00:14:29,820 --> 00:14:32,180
I've never seen these people before.
287
00:14:33,460 --> 00:14:36,340
They showed up
the day after the Empress Dowager's
288
00:14:36,660 --> 00:14:37,540
passing.
289
00:14:47,420 --> 00:14:50,060
Cursed Di Ziyuan.
290
00:14:51,940 --> 00:14:54,580
Curse the second legend!
291
00:14:55,820 --> 00:14:57,140
Sorry, Your Majesty.
292
00:14:57,940 --> 00:15:01,060
It's only a bunch
of baseless gossip from the people.
293
00:15:01,300 --> 00:15:03,260
Do not take them seriously.
294
00:15:03,580 --> 00:15:04,460
Your Majesty.
295
00:15:04,460 --> 00:15:05,700
You have nothing to worry about.
296
00:15:06,060 --> 00:15:07,940
The Crown Prince has taken over
the morning court session.
297
00:15:08,340 --> 00:15:10,340
Everything has been settled accordingly.
298
00:15:10,340 --> 00:15:11,460
Accordingly?
299
00:15:14,220 --> 00:15:16,260
I miscalculated.
300
00:15:19,180 --> 00:15:21,860
For the past ten years,
301
00:15:23,180 --> 00:15:26,700
I've so wishfully thought
there wouldn't be any threat.
302
00:15:27,340 --> 00:15:28,180
Your Majesty.
303
00:15:28,940 --> 00:15:31,820
For the past ten years,
the Jing State has had peace and prosperity
304
00:15:31,820 --> 00:15:33,300
under your rule.
305
00:15:33,340 --> 00:15:35,580
It's only a few baseless rumors.
306
00:15:35,700 --> 00:15:37,340
Nothing in this land can threaten your place
307
00:15:37,340 --> 00:15:39,300
as the Emperor.
308
00:15:39,980 --> 00:15:40,980
Wrong.
309
00:15:43,380 --> 00:15:46,340
There is someone capable of that.
310
00:15:48,620 --> 00:15:50,300
For the past decade,
311
00:15:53,100 --> 00:15:55,980
she's had me ensnared.
312
00:15:58,300 --> 00:16:00,620
I couldn't act unless she did it first.
313
00:16:11,740 --> 00:16:14,180
You mean her?
314
00:16:14,500 --> 00:16:17,300
Even when the Di family was wiped out,
315
00:16:17,620 --> 00:16:19,740
she had never been to the capital.
316
00:16:20,380 --> 00:16:21,500
Perhaps
317
00:16:22,780 --> 00:16:24,500
she is already dead.
318
00:16:24,660 --> 00:16:26,500
She won't die so easily!
319
00:16:28,500 --> 00:16:29,780
She won't show up,
320
00:16:31,340 --> 00:16:32,660
but her grandniece
321
00:16:32,660 --> 00:16:35,420
keeps stirring up trouble for me.
322
00:16:35,420 --> 00:16:37,260
Her audacity is outrageous!
323
00:16:40,140 --> 00:16:41,420
At this rate,
324
00:16:43,380 --> 00:16:46,020
her words might come to pass.
325
00:16:48,020 --> 00:16:50,740
She might become the second Di Shengtian.
326
00:16:55,420 --> 00:16:56,660
No one
327
00:16:57,140 --> 00:16:59,140
in this world
328
00:17:00,220 --> 00:17:04,420
should reach for this throne of mine.
329
00:17:13,580 --> 00:17:14,220
Sir.
330
00:17:14,460 --> 00:17:15,860
His Majesty summons you.
331
00:17:16,100 --> 00:17:17,740
Is this about Miss Di?
332
00:17:18,260 --> 00:17:20,380
I thought it was already over.
333
00:17:22,260 --> 00:17:23,660
The Di family's case was overturned
334
00:17:23,900 --> 00:17:25,260
and their name was cleared.
335
00:17:26,180 --> 00:17:27,820
But exposing the truth to the people
336
00:17:28,020 --> 00:17:29,420
humiliated Han Zhongyuan.
337
00:17:29,780 --> 00:17:31,260
He will not tolerate this.
338
00:17:31,540 --> 00:17:32,780
He could contain his fury
339
00:17:33,260 --> 00:17:35,020
during the birthday banquet.
340
00:17:36,340 --> 00:17:37,740
But with the Empress Dowager gone,
341
00:17:40,100 --> 00:17:41,260
someone will have to
342
00:17:41,260 --> 00:17:42,820
face his fury.
343
00:17:44,100 --> 00:17:46,380
That means you could get yourself killed.
344
00:17:46,500 --> 00:17:47,620
I must keep Ziyuan safe.
345
00:17:51,460 --> 00:17:53,620
Only I can take on this burden for her.
346
00:17:54,540 --> 00:17:55,180
Sir.
347
00:17:55,300 --> 00:17:55,940
-But...
-Linlang.
348
00:17:57,060 --> 00:17:57,900
Don't try to persuade me.
349
00:17:57,900 --> 00:17:59,020
I've made up my mind.
350
00:18:04,500 --> 00:18:06,860
I know you understand me better than anyone else.
351
00:18:11,500 --> 00:18:12,460
Understood.
352
00:18:14,340 --> 00:18:14,980
So,
353
00:18:16,500 --> 00:18:17,980
if I don't return,
354
00:18:18,380 --> 00:18:19,740
you know what to do.
355
00:18:20,980 --> 00:18:21,980
Once you've left,
356
00:18:23,340 --> 00:18:24,700
I'll shut down Lingxiang Pleasure House
357
00:18:25,340 --> 00:18:26,700
for a while.
358
00:18:28,100 --> 00:18:30,860
If you never come back,
359
00:18:34,020 --> 00:18:36,380
all the resources of the Qianyue Pavilion
360
00:18:37,260 --> 00:18:39,020
will be handed over to Miss Di.
361
00:18:40,900 --> 00:18:41,780
Good.
362
00:18:46,860 --> 00:18:47,700
Sir!
363
00:19:03,660 --> 00:19:06,100
[Ren's Residence]
364
00:19:08,940 --> 00:19:09,980
Young Lady.
365
00:19:10,180 --> 00:19:12,380
Your moves make your intention too obvious.
366
00:19:12,580 --> 00:19:13,900
I'm not an old woman.
367
00:19:13,900 --> 00:19:15,580
I can't be as ascetic as an abbot
368
00:19:15,580 --> 00:19:16,620
in a temple.
369
00:19:16,820 --> 00:19:19,060
A mere mortal can never break free from desires.
370
00:19:19,580 --> 00:19:21,900
If you still have feelings for His Highness,
371
00:19:22,100 --> 00:19:23,340
that is understandable.
372
00:19:23,380 --> 00:19:24,540

00:30:17,620 --> 00:30:20,500
But it no longer concerns the Di family.
556
00:30:20,620 --> 00:30:22,060
It concerns the whole nation.
557
00:30:23,340 --> 00:30:26,260
The Minister of Justice is sent to prison
for the crime of deceiving the Emperor.
558
00:30:27,020 --> 00:30:28,500
This is a serious matter.
559
00:30:28,500 --> 00:30:29,900
I know what you mean.
560
00:30:33,780 --> 00:30:34,820
But if I...
561
00:30:36,260 --> 00:30:36,780
I'd save you
562
00:30:36,780 --> 00:30:37,820
if I were you.
563
00:30:38,860 --> 00:30:40,620
I'm not doing this for Ziyuan,
564
00:30:42,540 --> 00:30:44,100
but to maintain order in the nation.
565
00:30:45,540 --> 00:30:47,540
There's no way to absolve me
of the crime of deceiving the Emperor.
566
00:30:47,740 --> 00:30:49,060
You may be the Crown Prince,
567
00:30:50,100 --> 00:30:51,100
but what can you do?
568
00:30:52,500 --> 00:30:54,260
The Di family are no longer traitors.
569
00:30:54,780 --> 00:30:56,740
Ziyuan is no longer the daughter
of a sinned official.
570
00:30:57,100 --> 00:30:58,860
So she never needed
the imprisonment on Dai Mountain.
571
00:31:04,340 --> 00:31:06,100
You do not disappoint.
572
00:31:10,620 --> 00:31:12,340
I can't stay here too long.
573
00:31:13,540 --> 00:31:14,380
I should get going.
574
00:31:14,900 --> 00:31:16,900
I will figure out a way
to send you better medicine.
575
00:31:17,740 --> 00:31:18,820
Take care of yourself.
576
00:31:41,740 --> 00:31:44,220
[Prison]
577
00:32:06,020 --> 00:32:07,820
I've talked to the guards inside.
578
00:32:08,820 --> 00:32:09,900
When you visit him,
579
00:32:10,500 --> 00:32:11,540
they won't stop you.
580
00:32:13,300 --> 00:32:14,100
Thank you.
581
00:32:15,820 --> 00:32:17,300
He hasn't been treated well
582
00:32:18,020 --> 00:32:18,860
in prison.
583
00:32:20,380 --> 00:32:21,620
If he sees you,
584
00:32:22,820 --> 00:32:24,780
he should feel much better than seeing me.
585
00:32:25,780 --> 00:32:27,780
No one would be happy to be locked up
586
00:32:28,100 --> 00:32:29,620
in prison.
587
00:32:32,500 --> 00:32:34,020
It's not right for His Majesty to punish him.
588
00:32:34,860 --> 00:32:36,580
I'll do my best to argue with this decision.
589
00:32:37,740 --> 00:32:39,780
But it's far more difficult than it seems.
590
00:32:42,580 --> 00:32:44,500
Isn't it obvious enough?
591
00:32:45,380 --> 00:32:47,620
His Majesty is out for a payback.
592
00:32:48,620 --> 00:32:50,300
Don't bother apologizing on his behalf.
593
00:32:51,380 --> 00:32:52,100
What we seek
594
00:32:52,100 --> 00:32:53,660
is never your apologies.
595
00:32:54,300 --> 00:32:55,020
Ziyuan.
596
00:32:56,620 --> 00:32:57,580
You may hate me,
597
00:32:59,260 --> 00:33:00,500
but you've always trusted me.
598
00:33:01,260 --> 00:33:02,260
Isn't that right?
599
00:33:03,780 --> 00:33:04,380
Yes.
600
00:33:05,540 --> 00:33:06,620
Otherwise,
601
00:33:08,020 --> 00:33:10,140
I wouldn't have given you that hand fan.
602
00:33:11,780 --> 00:33:13,260
Trust me once more.
603
00:33:13,860 --> 00:33:15,500
I will get Luo Mingxi out of there.
604
00:33:16,260 --> 00:33:18,060
You will get the justice you deserve.
605
00:33:26,380 --> 00:33:27,100
Very well.
606
00:33:29,020 --> 00:33:29,780
Ziyuan.
607
00:33:39,740 --> 00:33:41,620
The poem on the fan you gave me
608
00:33:43,780 --> 00:33:45,060
does not mention the end
609
00:33:45,780 --> 00:33:47,020
but only the beginning.
610
00:33:48,380 --> 00:33:50,420
Is your feeling for me real or false?
611
00:33:57,140 --> 00:33:59,100
The truth hasn't been announced to the public.
612
00:34:00,260 --> 00:34:01,140
Between the two of us,
613
00:34:02,300 --> 00:34:03,820
there is no room for love.
614
00:34:31,380 --> 00:34:32,740
Don't give me that look.
615
00:34:33,260 --> 00:34:34,380
I'm fine.
616
00:34:38,860 --> 00:34:40,140
You call this fine?
617
00:34:43,620 --> 00:34:44,820
I am fine.
618
00:34:45,620 --> 00:34:46,820
But you, on the other hand,
619
00:34:47,340 --> 00:34:48,380
is quite amazing.
620
00:34:48,620 --> 00:34:49,340
You come and go
621
00:34:49,380 --> 00:34:50,820
as you please in this prison.
622
00:34:51,860 --> 00:34:52,940
I can do great things,
623
00:34:53,860 --> 00:34:55,580
but your body isn't doing very well.
624
00:34:56,100 --> 00:34:58,060
You know what kind of a place
625
00:34:58,300 --> 00:34:59,660
the prison is.
626
00:35:00,580 --> 00:35:01,900
Whoever comes in here
627
00:35:01,900 --> 00:35:03,660
will never leave unscathed.
628
00:35:04,380 --> 00:35:06,420
You're too delicate. All this torture
629
00:35:06,540 --> 00:35:07,620
could have killed you.
630
00:35:07,860 --> 00:35:08,620
You should have...
631
00:35:08,620 --> 00:35:09,380
Ziyuan.
632
00:35:10,420 --> 00:35:11,820
I know what you want to say.
633
00:35:13,540 --> 00:35:15,340
But there are still uncertainties.
634
00:35:15,900 --> 00:35:17,140
Do not act recklessly.
635
00:35:17,580 --> 00:35:18,580
And you're being careless
636
00:35:18,780 --> 00:35:20,060
for coming here.
637
00:35:20,420 --> 00:35:21,300
If anyone sees this...
638
00:35:21,300 --> 00:35:22,180
I'm here to see you.
639
00:35:22,460 --> 00:35:24,220
How is that careless?
640
00:35:25,780 --> 00:35:27,420
It's not what I mean.
641
00:35:30,140 --> 00:35:31,860
I'm happy to see you.
642
00:35:34,140 --> 00:35:35,380
Look at yourself.
643
00:35:36,060 --> 00:35:37,500
How can you still be happy?
644
00:36:14,740 --> 00:36:16,420
I was born to serve the Di family.
645
00:36:18,020 --> 00:36:19,660
These wounds are nothing.
646
00:36:21,860 --> 00:36:23,500
I don't regret what I did.
647
00:36:24,900 --> 00:36:26,020
Don't let this bother you.
648
00:36:28,980 --> 00:36:30,220
See this place?
649
00:36:30,820 --> 00:36:32,780
Most of the torture devices were designed by me.
650
00:36:32,900 --> 00:36:34,940
I know how to make it less painful.
651
00:36:36,420 --> 00:36:37,300
Trust me on that.
652
00:36:37,700 --> 00:36:38,260
See?
653
00:36:42,060 --> 00:36:43,020
Before I came here,
654
00:36:43,940 --> 00:36:45,300
I even brought good medicine with me.

656
00:37:00,220 --> 00:37:02,380
I'll get you out of this place.
657

Han Zhongyuan faces scrutiny
658
00:37:05,940 --> 00:37:07,420
from everyone in the imperial court.
659
00:37:08,940 --> 00:37:11,260
He wants to get rid of everyone close to you.
660
00:37:11,740 --> 00:37:13,900
When I stood up, of course
he wouldn't have spared me.
661
00:37:15,460 --> 00:37:16,740
Don't be concerned about me.
662
00:37:16,980 --> 00:37:18,860
Above all, remain steadfast.
663

What do you mean?
664
00:37:21,460 --> 00:37:22,980
Do you plan to stay here forever?
665
00:37:23,300 --> 00:37:24,420
Do you want to die here?
666
00:37:24,420 --> 00:37:25,300
Have you lost your mind?
667
00:37:25,300 --> 00:37:26,500
Keep a level head.
668
00:37:28,900 --> 00:37:30,140
For the past ten years,
669
00:37:30,980 --> 00:37:33,140
we've had each other's backs.

Nothing else matters to me.

of all ranks and have him jailed.)

(Now, I must raise a question.)
680
00:38:07,860 --> 00:38:09,580
Had it not been for Luo Mingxi's act of loyalty,
681
00:38:09,580 --> 00:38:10,740
could Ren Anle have been able
682
00:38:10,740 --> 00:38:12,940
to clear the name of the 80,000 lost souls?
683
00:38:13,700 --> 00:38:16,900
Luo Mingxi protected the innocent,
so what crime has he committed?
684
00:38:17,340 --> 00:38:19,060

688
00:38:24,820 --> 00:38:26,940
His Majesty must have let anger
get the better of him.
689
00:38:27,100 --> 00:38:27,660
Yes.

He arrested Marquis Zhongyi
to clear the Di family's name,

The Empress Dowager is gone,

with any crimes.
704

He even sent Official Luo to prison.
705
00:39:05,420 --> 00:39:06,580
This is utterly unfair.
706
00:39:06,580 --> 00:39:07,740
How unacceptable.

Nothing could go wrong.

Greetings, Your Majesty.
724
00:40:14,420 --> 00:40:16,260
You've always sided with the Di family
725

and forgotten your own family name.

00:40:47,620 --> 00:40:48,340
Yes.
740
00:40:49,260 --> 00:40:50,580
Luo Mingxi is imprisoned.
741
00:40:50,620 --> 00:40:51,700
He was tortured.
742
00:40:52,060 --> 00:40:52,940
His life hangs by a thread.
743
00:40:53,900 --> 00:40:54,820
I think
744
00:40:55,140 --> 00:40:56,260
it's time to release him.
745
00:40:57,300 --> 00:40:59,100
What if I refuse?
746
00:40:59,820 --> 00:41:01,220
You've kept him alive
747
00:41:01,340 --> 00:41:02,660
for so long.
748
00:41:02,900 --> 00:41:04,180
So, you mean to release him eventually.
749
00:41:04,860 --> 00:41:05,500
Besides,
750
00:41:05,860 --> 00:41:07,340
you know very well
751
00:41:07,620 --> 00:41:09,140
that Luo Mingxi's action
752
00:41:09,340 --> 00:41:11,100
wasn't the crime of deceiving the Emperor.
753
00:41:11,340 --> 00:41:12,740
He did it out of his loyalty.
754
00:41:13,340 --> 00:41:14,420
What he did
755
00:41:14,620 --> 00:41:16,900
saved the Han family's reputation
756
00:41:17,220 --> 00:41:18,940
because we didn't wrong Marquis Jing'an as badly.
757
00:41:25,220 --> 00:41:26,140
I understand
758
00:41:26,700 --> 00:41:28,260
that you have your frustration.
759
00:41:28,420 --> 00:41:29,900
Therefore, you're reluctant to release him.
760
00:41:30,740 --> 00:41:32,540
I shall share your worries.
761
00:41:32,780 --> 00:41:33,740
So I propose
762
00:41:34,140 --> 00:41:36,300
that Luo Mingxi is released.
763
00:41:41,780 --> 00:41:43,260
Aren't you a sensible one?
764
00:41:47,540 --> 00:41:48,140
Your Majesty.
765
00:41:49,340 --> 00:41:50,660
I have another matter to mention.
766
00:41:52,660 --> 00:41:53,580
Speak.
767
00:41:54,340 --> 00:41:55,340
Outside Chongyang Gate
768
00:41:56,780 --> 00:41:58,580
are scholars kneeling to plead
769
00:41:58,860 --> 00:41:59,940
for the Di family.
770
00:42:02,220 --> 00:42:04,220
When will they relent?
771
00:42:05,940 --> 00:42:07,180
These fools
772
00:42:07,340 --> 00:42:08,620
believe in baseless rumors
773
00:42:09,300 --> 00:42:10,900
and think they can be the judge
774
00:42:10,900 --> 00:42:12,740
of what is right or wrong!
775
00:42:15,180 --> 00:42:16,020
Calm down, Your Majesty.
776
00:42:16,580 --> 00:42:17,260
I must
777
00:42:17,660 --> 00:42:18,660
congratulate you.
778
00:42:22,140 --> 00:42:24,180
My imperial court is turned upside down!
779
00:42:24,660 --> 00:42:26,460
Why are you congratulating me?
780
00:42:29,100 --> 00:42:30,460
The 80,000 soldiers died.
781
00:42:30,940 --> 00:42:33,060
All officers of the Di family
were wronged for ten years.
782
00:42:33,660 --> 00:42:36,220
All of these happened because the Han family
783
00:42:36,220 --> 00:42:37,460
acted out of greed.
784
00:42:38,380 --> 00:42:39,940
If these scholars are willing to plead,
785
00:42:40,180 --> 00:42:41,140
it means
786
00:42:41,580 --> 00:42:42,860
they have faith in the Jing State.
787
00:42:43,420 --> 00:42:45,260
They have faith that you will set up an example
788
00:42:45,620 --> 00:42:46,740
by clearing the Di family's name
789
00:42:47,100 --> 00:42:49,100
and bring justice to the world.
