=The Legend of Jinyan=

(Episode 11)

You miss me so much

that I sneeze.

It's not hot. Drink it.

Who sent you here?

You're the one

who started it.

Are you trying to get yourself killed?

Your Highness!

Where are you going, Your Highness?

The maid was really hard to deal with.

Duke An had her killed.

It was skillfully done.

Zhong Li and the Palace Guards

were no closer to finding the truth.

It's cruel.

Don't do it again.

Understood.

What about the princess consort?

Her Highness has been coming on to Prince Yu

in order to get some news.

However, His Highness is not someone

who has a tender heart for the fairer sex.

She is coming on to the wrong person.

Let things fall into place. Don't rush it.

You're excused.

Keep it low-key.

Understood.

Jin'er.

You're here.

Have a seat.

Okay.

Have some tea.

Allow me.

Oh,

here is a letter from Mrs. Wen.

It's all my fault.

My mom is worried about me.

She must be pining for me.

It's okay. It's okay.

Look what I have for you.

The osmanthus-flavored candy from Qi Bao Zhai Store.

When I was a kid,

you often ordered it for me.

I haven't tasted it since I'm here.

I miss it so much.

If you like it,

I'll order it for you every day.

I'm afraid it's not allowed in the mansion.

As long as you like it,

you're gonna have it.

Jin'er,

I'd do everything for you,

everything.

But I can't let you

stay here.

You read Mrs. Wen's letter.

She specifically told me to persuade you.

The mansion is a complicated place.

You're too naive

to survive here.

Please go home, okay?

But my sister is here.

I...

You're a nobody here.

You're just a humble maid.

Your word doesn't count for anything.

You can't help her.

But...

Jin'er,

over the past few months,

you've been in danger several times.

Are you not intimidated

by the punishment and the poison?

Jin'er, I...

Mrs. Wen is really worried about you.

Little master, how do you know all that?

Duke An is infamously callous.

To solve the 18 cases,

he had half of Luoyang citizens slaughtered

in one night.

You're dealing with him.

And you're still alive.

Has he miraculously become a kind person?

I guess

you've been protecting me.

What else could it be?

Actually, I met someone here

who's been helping me.

Who is it?

Forget about it.

One more month.

Give me just one more month.

I promise I'll leave then.

Jin'er, whatever you want to do,

I'll do it for you.

Don't take the risk yourself, okay?

If I fail to save my sister,

I'd regret the rest of my life.

That's not what I want.

Alright, you'll always have my support.

You're a girl. You should get yourself cleaned up.

Your Highness.

Jinyan.

Jinyan.

Jinyan.

Take care.

Watch your step.

You're a great lady.

Watch out for the cobblestone.

Watch out for the step.

Can't you act normally?

I can't.

I must be deferential to you.

If you keep acting like this, I'm not gonna talk to you anymore.

You're so good at hiding yourself.

I'm not smart enough.

I knew that you're an acquaintance of Prince Jin.

But I didn't realize that you two are so close...

Friendly.

It seems...

It seems you're in trouble.

Trouble?

Not at all.

From now on,

I'm your rock.

If anyone who is silly enough

to upset you,

I'll kick his ass.

Xiaoxizi,

whose ass

you're gonna kick?

Eunuch Shen,

I have no quarrel with him.

I don't understand

why he spiked my soup.

It's sleeping drug this time.

It's okay for me to sleep a few more hours.

But what if he poisons me next time?

I might

get killed.

Is what she said true?

What do you mean by that?

You don't believe me?

He works for you.

Are you trying to protect him?

He doesn't work for me.

He was adopted by Li Chaohai, the chief eunuch.

He is working here

as a punishment.

If you're unsatisfied with him,

you should talk to Li

instead of me.

I'm asking.

Is what she said true?

The drug...

I've been wronged.

You asked me to cook the chicken soup.

I swear I didn't put any drug into it.

You asked me to add some cannabis leaves

to make the soup more delicious.

I did it right.

What cannabis leaves? What are you talking about?

I did as you asked.

Perhaps the soup is not good enough

for you,

so you blame us for it.

Jinyan,

when did I ask you to cook soup?

No, no, no.

She didn't ask me to do it.

It's my own decision to cook the soup.

Please forgive me.

Alright, Xiaoxizi.

Stand up.

Don't show up before Aunt Wanqing

if you don't want to get killed.

Understood.

Thanks.

Please stop.

She is a lying bitch. Why can't I hit her?

Did you forget

how Yancui was killed?

(Logistic Hall)

You've been here a lot these days.

It seems you're more interested

in my harem than I am.

Her Highness Consort Wen is a noble lady.

I'm fond of her

and would like to stare at her as long as I want.

Don't be jealous.

I'm afraid

it's not proper for you to say that.

Don't ever say it again.

I heard some news about this place.

A maid claimed that our father

has left a testament.

Have you found the testament?

You crossed the line.

It's my guess.

Why are you irritated

if you have nothing to hide?

Alright.

You're at my mansion.

Are you here to visit me

or piss me off?

I'm sorry.

It's been unsettling these days.

It's okay for others to talk nonsense about it.

But you're princes.

How can you talk off the top of your head?

Prince Yu,

he is your brother, after all.

If you keep sniping,

you'd hurt your brotherhood, which is not worth it.

I'm sorry.

Prince Yu has been bothered

by the affairs in the court.

Prince Jin, you may back down.

You don't have to upset Her Majesty and His Highness.

As a consort, you might as well stay out of this.

It's between them.

Let them decide.

You might as well keep silent.

It's not long before Wen Liangshi came into office.

He has been praised by the people in Huainan.

Local officials have submitted memorials to the throne,

saying nice things about him.

I'm insightful.

You may want to learn from me,

so that you won't lose again.

It's only a game.

I don't attach much importance to it.

It's getting late.

Li Chaohai, escort my brother out.

This way, please.

Prince Yu?

Mother.

I remember

I was sent to you when I was seven.

We've been mother and son for twelve years.

Now,

it seems you're looking for a new son.

What are you talking about?

I wish I was talking nonsense,

Your Majesty.

Your Highness,

Prince Jin has been to the Garden Service Division.

They've been talking in the room for a while.

Their voices were inaudible.

Later, a tea servant opened the door

and saw Prince Jin

wiping the hand of that maid

in an intimate manner.

It seems they are very close.

He is so shameless.

Your Highness, what should we do about that maid?

Is there not enough work

for her?

How come she got the time to hook up with a man?

Make her do the job of five people.

She is not allowed to sleep before the work is done.

That's it?

Jinyan.

You freaked me out.

What brings you here?

You stood up for me.

I knew they'd put you on the spot.

That bitch is very callous.

I heard the drug was powerful.

She had diarrhea for a few days.

It's okay for me to cut the grass.

They can't do this to you.

The land is big.

When are you gonna finish?

Sometimes you have to stoop to compromise.

You shouldn't compromise.

It doesn't matter now.

I'm

very sleepy.

You go get some sleep. Leave it to me.

No, no, no.

Leave it to you...

You can count on me.

Are you gonna flee?

A promise is a promise.

I told you that I'll help you out.

I'll keep my word.

Well,

it's too much work here.

Let's do it together.

Just go back and get some sleep.

I'll find some eunuchs

working here

to help me.

After spending so much time with you,

I know you well.

I'm just like you.

I'll do it well.

Alright.

Thank you. See you later.

Just go.

(Garden Service Division)

(Logistic Hall)

Eunuch Jiang, my apologies.

Her Majesty has a dull appetite.

She'd only have porridge and vegetables.

We run out of vegetables this morning.

I'm here to get some.

Thanks for coming here in person.

Next time, we'll deliver it for you.

It's okay.

Vegetables are precious and hard to preserve.

It has to be freshly picked.

Please follow me.

Aunt.

Aunt. Aunt.

The vegetables in the garden...

What happened?

The vegetables are gone.

Your Highness, please calm down.

Your Highness.

Your Highness, please calm down.

I'm being blamed

for Her Majesty's disease.

Every memorial to the throne is about my impeachment.

The court is in a mess.

Someone even calls me

the disobedient son.

As a sovereign prince,

I'm such a loser.

The seeds offered from the Western Regions are hard to survive.

There are only two fields to grow these special vegetables.

One field was ruined by Lord An.

The other one was ruined yesterday.

It upsets Her Majesty.

She needs to be comforted.

They are all

impeaching me,

accusing me of being unfilial.

It's like I was the one who ordered to ruin the field.

Perhaps someone

is behind it.

Please allow me

to get rid of that person for you.

Get rid of which person?

Many things happened

since the maid has been here.

I don't understand why you tolerate her so much.

But she is getting unscrupulous.

The maid has unsettled you a lot.

Your Highness, we must get rid of her.

The maid?

She was behind it.

The other day, she pretended to help Lord An,

which makes you think she is a nice person.

However, after all this,

do you still think so?

She's been helping someone to set you up.

Your Highness,

you must see it clearly.

Helping someone else?

Do you mean Prince Jin?

Yes.

Your request is approved.

What happened?

I...

I was trying to get back at them for you.

So, I did the same work,

finding some eunuchs

to ruin the entire field.

Are you nuts?

I did that before

because Lord An supported me.

Are you trying to get yourself killed this time?

Did you forget you have support

from Prince Jin and Guard Zhong?

They're your guardian angles. You have nothing to fear.

What makes you so confident?

Just run away.

Run fast to save your life.

I...

I'm freaking out.

I am freaking out.

Eunuch Jiang, it's over there.

The maid who ruined the vegetables is right over there.

What should we do?

She should be punished

for not respecting Her Majesty.

My guardian angels haven't arrived yet.

And death is already coming for us.

Don't say anything.

Just run.

Go, go, go.

-Come on. -Jinyan.

I'm sorry.

Keep running.

You again?

Get her.

Understood.

Follow her.

Guard Zhong.

Guard Zhong, please wait for me.

Guard Zhong.

Please wait for me.

Wait for me.

Wait for me.

Finally.

Eunuch Li, what's up?

Prince Yu asked you to go back to Plum Garden.

Back to Plum Garden?

Prince Yu said he has a plan.

Guard Zhong.

Guard Zhong.

Prince Yu really has a plan.

What plan?

Prince Yu wants to...

What are you looking at?

Your Highness,

are you soft again?

I'll deal with her on my own.

But...

Go to Plum Garden

and work on the memorials to the throne.

Let's go.

Guard Zhong, Let's go.

Hurry up. She is running to the mountains.

Come on. Come on.

Why am I always being chased?

I don't understand my fate.

Perhaps

I just don't belong here.

Where is she going?

What does she see in Prince Jin?

I'm more handsome, competent

and even

nobler than him.

She is short-sighted.

Hurry up!

Where is she?

Didn't they fall into the trap?

Let's go there.

Oh, my God.

Oh, my God.

I'll torture you in a way

that you wish you were dead.

Femme fatale?

He has such a pretty figure.

What did he do to get that body?

I shouldn't be looking at him.

I shouldn't be looking at him.

He has such a pretty figure.

This is not the time

to think about this.

Where are my clothes?

Who is that?

Mind your manners. I'm Zhong Li.

I didn't know it was you. I'm sorry.

We're chasing after a guilty maid.

Have you seen her?

Yes, she was running in that direction.

Thank you, Guard Zhong.

I'm so smart.

How smart can you be?

Does the cloth fit you?

Well...

It was a mistake,

a mistake.

What mistake?

For you watching me bathing?

For you meeting someone else?

For you trying to murder Her Majesty

and ruin the imperial field?

I didn't.

I didn't.

This time, you ran to the imperial pool.

Where will you go next time?

The imperial ancestral hall

or the throne room?

♪It's worth it.♪

You might as well put on your clothes.

Okay.

Remove your clothes.

Remove my clothes?

Why?

I heard her voice.

It's right over there.

Hurry up.

Where is she?

That's weird.

I swear I heard her voice.

Perhaps it's a mistake.

Let's go over there.

I owe you a big time, again.

I'm afraid it's impossible to pay you back.

Thank you.

For what?

When I was in the Imperial Prison,

you were there to help me out.

You were blamed by Her Majesty for that.

You spent many efforts to arrange this job for me.

I shouldn't save you.

On the night of Prince Yu's wedding,

I was drowning and you saved me.

You wouldn't let go of me

and almost lost your life.

That's because you were holding on to me.

Alright, I know.

You saved me many times.

I'll bear it in mind.

But you're weird.

Why are you often pissed off?

Because I hate liars.

The other day, down the well, I...

Alright.

Stop the nonsense.

I heard that Prince Jin and you are close.

No, no.

You two had a good time.

No.

No?

No.

Why do you get emotional when you ask about him?

You're jealous.

I am not.

I'm just curious

what you're gonna do.

Alright, let go of it.

Prince Jin is an aristocrat.

I mean it.

We're not that close.

I met him a few times when I was a kid.

He's been looking after me.

He is a gentleman.

There is nothing wrong with that.

Even if I have an affair, it's not with him.

Someone has promised me

that he'll marry me if I can't find a husband.

Who made you that promise?

I think you know.

You're flirting with me.

You've been flirting with me.

For what reason?

I...

I was not flirting with you.
