=The Legend of Jinyan=

(Episode 14)

It's Prince Jin's fault. It has nothing to do with you.

I'm not worthy of your request.

Prince Jin,

are you aware of your crime?

Through investigation, Shanhai has found

that Muchen Temple's abbot Yuankong colluded with foreigners

and stole the official seal

with intent to rebel.

I searched the national temple without permission,

going against your wish

and arousing public indignation.

I'm aware of my crime.

Good.

You have admitted your crime.

We can skip the trial held by the Punishment Division.

How should he be punished

for offending the Sovereign Prince?

He is punishable by...

You carry the late Sovereign Prince's will

and hold a high position in the court.

You should prioritize state affairs.

The gods and the Buddha decide the nation's level of prosperity.

How could you act on impulse?

You have damaged the foundation of the nation.

You have made a grave mistake,

causing people to suffer.

You...

You don't deserve the additional title conferred on you.

You defied your father's teachings.

I'm sorry for erring.

It's the fault of his parents

that he wasn't raised right.

I live in the harem,

but I'm your mother

and I'll always worry about you.

You have enraged heaven

and people.

I'm guilty of negligence.

I...

I'd receive punishment for my son.

Mother.

Mother.

Mother.

You're forcing me to become an unfilial son.

Prince Yu,

he...

he is your elder brother, Prince Jin of Shuzhong.

The late Sovereign Prince was most proud of him.

I know.

The late Sovereign Prince gave me a task,

which I failed to complete.

Now he has made a grave mistake.

But he is the late Sovereign Prince's son, after all.

I beg you all to go easy on him.

Revoke his additional title.

Downgrade his noble rank.

Then punish me

for the rest of his crime.

So I'll know how to explain things to the late Sovereign Prince

after I enter the netherworld.

Mother.

Please forgive Prince Jin, Your Highness.

Mother.

I'm the child you brought up.

Both of you...

Both of you are biological sons of the late Sovereign Prince.

Prince Jin took action without permission.

He will stop attending court meetings for a month.

He will reflect on his mistake in Qingxin Hall

and only return home at night every day.

Yes, Your Highness.

(Qinzheng Hall)

Your Highness.

In this time of crisis,

I have no appetite.

Your Highness.

Did you make the wine offered to Jinghong Pavilion?

I beg your pardon.

Get up.

I'm not blaming you.

You didn't summon me to blame me?

Didn't you say you knew ancient wine-making methods?

The only blended wine for the Swing Feast

is Qizixiang.

Do you think you can make it?

(Jinghong Pavilion)

Your Highness, have a taste.

Servants,

send the wine to the Princess Dowager.

Your Highness,

come in.

How is he? Is Prince Jin badly injured?

The imperial doctor didn't look worried.

I think he isn't badly injured.

The Princess Dowager stood up for Prince Jin today.

She must have relented.

No, I still can't rest easy.

Prepare some medicines.

I'm going to Qingxin Hall.

Prince Yu was furious today.

He forbade anyone to visit Prince Jin.

I'm afraid that visiting him

is not appropriate right now.

However, it's not impossible for you to visit Prince Jin.

The night will come in four hours.

(Jinghong Pavilion)

The wine looks limpid and tastes luscious and sweet.

But it's a little dry.

It lacks the strong scent

of the wine I tasted in the cellar yesterday.

Leave with me.

We'll leave together?

You look gorgeous.

He must have sent the cats to the cellar to help me.

You are here.

What do you want?

I finally made Qizixiang.

This is to thank you.

I know you sent the cats to the cellar.

This is why you came?

Yes.

Go back if you have nothing else to say.

What's the matter?

Nothing.

I work at Jinghong Pavilion now.

I risked being caught

and waited for you long.

I don't need the wine.

Don't ever come to me again.

You...

I came to thank you.

Not only did you reject my kindness,

but you treated me awfully.

Shut up.

I didn't provoke you.

I waited for you for two hours in the mansion

until you showed up.

How can you be so cruel?

Your Highness.

(Qingxin Hall)

What's bothering you?

Here is a crescent moon for you.

Most things in life don't turn out as you wish.

But be it bitter or sweet,

life has to go on.

I don't know what is bothering you.

I just hope this crescent moon can dispel darkness

and light the road ahead for you.

Thank you.

You are holding it carefully

like I was holding the birthday gift

from my mother at my birthday party.

What was bothering you just then?

Please forgive Prince Jin, Your Highness.

Nothing.

Let's go.

My... My legs are numb.

I...

I came a long way to give you the thank-you gift.

I gave you not just Qizixiang,

but also the crescent moon.

Just wait for me a little longer.

People should be grateful to those who show kindness to them

and return the kindness.

You...

Your Highness, I beg your pardon.

I didn't know you'd be involved in the trouble

and receive punishment.

If the Princess Dowager hadn't defended me today,

I would have paid for Yuankong's death with my life.

How come every time I told you to investigate the testament,

you made trouble and got people killed?

Yuankong insulted you.

I only wanted to teach him a lesson.

I didn't expect...

I beg your pardon.

Mother and I have never been close.

But she defended me today.

There must be a reason.

Go find it out.

Yes.

Put me down.

I told you to return the kindness,

not carry me.

I haven't complained about your heavy weight.

And you are nitpicking already.

Heavy? Who are you calling heavy?

Jin'er?

I'm as light as a feather.

You...

You are just obnoxious.

You may be a little heavy,

but I can manage to carry you.

It's okay.

You have been wearing this hairpin all this time?

Good.

No... No...

I just don't have another hairpin for now.

You were sharp-tongued just then.

How come you are stammering now?

Take it back.

Zhong Li.

Don't think about the endless troubles.

Finish the wine under the moon while you are alive.

Things may be undesirable now.

But you will have your day eventually.

Alright.

If you ever feel melancholy,

come to Jinghong Pavilion for me.

I can't promise much,

but I will serve you enough wine.

Alright.

Just don't call me

heavy again.

Your Highness, calm down.

We are in the Sovereign Prince Yu's Mansion.

Gifts given shouldn't be taken back.

I won't call you heavy again.

Go find out

why Jin'er thinks Prince Yu is Zhong Li.

Yes.

Prince Jin.

Why are you here?

I'm worried about your injuries.

I have brought medicines with me.

But I didn't expect to meet you at the lake.

These are intense times.

Yet you exercise no caution.

Your action is very risky.

I'm just worried about you.

Prince Jin.

I saw it all.

Sujin and Prince Yu have a secret relationship.

She doesn't deserve your protection.

Enough.

I don't want to hear that.

Gifts given shouldn't be taken back.

You always defy Prince Yu for Jinyan.

I'm really worried about you.

Now that she's a troublemaker,

do as you say.

No way.

Your Highness,

you are not the love of Sujin.

Don't let her deceive you.

No.

I'm not deceived.

She is deceived.

Prince Jin.

Suyu, take her to me.

I want to ask her face-to-face.

Alright.

I will take her here tomorrow.

Good.

Thank you.

Prince Jin,

when will you realize

I'm the only person

who truly loves you?

(Jinghong Pavilion)

Your Highness.

Good timing. Check out these wines.

I had my family buy these wines at a high price.

Can we use these wines for the Swing Feast?

The sweet and mellow wine aromas waft far.

Surely, these wines will please Prince Yu

and the Princess Dowager at the Swing Feast.

Jinyan, what do you think?

These are good, but not top-grade.

If we served these wines at the Swing Feast,

we might fail to impress them.

I spent a lot on these wines.

You are saying they are worthless.

Your Highness, at your request,

I dared not slack off yesterday.

However, Qizixiang is of lower quality.

If we only served Qizixiang at the Swing Feast,

we might displease the Princess Dowager.

I pondered over the situation

and believed only one blended wine suited the Swing Feast.

The wine is Tipsy Begonia,

named after the flower and wine.

It's not as strong as century-old wines.

But it is a novelty.

Tipsy Begonia.

Your Highness,

I can make Tipsy Begonia for the Swing Feast

and make amends for your fault.

Make amends for my fault?

You are really outspoken.

Fine.

You asked to undertake the task.

I will trust you.

Thank you, Your Highness.

Sister,

I will make the wine for the Swing Feast.

You will be safe.

Spread the begonia stamens out evenly.

Tell them to fetch some lotus leaves and rice bran.

Yes.

Jinyan.

Consort Wen wanted you to receive the new wine at Anhua Gate.

The new wine?

Okay. Let's go.

(Qinzheng Hall)

Your Highness.

Your Highness,

are you ill?

I'm fine.

What are you...

I remember the latest batch of tributes

includes litchis.

Take some litchis

and come with me to Jinghong Pavilion.

Yes.

(Qingxin Hall)

This is not the way to Anhua Gate.

Where are you taking me?

I'm a maid at Chengrui Pavilion.

The Princess Consort told me to find you.

Sister?

Where does the Princess Consort wish me to go?

(Qingxin Hall)

Jin'er.

Little master. How can you be here?

Jin'er, how are you doing in the mansion?

I work at Jinghong Pavilion now.

I'm doing much better than at the Garden Service Division.

Little master, are you okay?

I'm fine.

You weren't in trouble yesterday.

By the way,

you haven't answered my question.

Why are you here?

Prince Yu has always dreaded me.

It's normal for him to punish me using any excuse.

But you are such a nice person.

How can Prince Yu be so cruel?

Jin'er, you have been in the mansion for a long time.

Have you ever seen Prince Yu?

No.

I hear that you're close to a certain person at Prince Yu's side.

But your identity is unusual.

You should stay away from the people at Prince Yu's side.

Close?

You mean Zhong Li.

It's okay.

He works at Prince Yu's place.

But we are friends who have gone through adversity.

He wouldn't harm me.

As I expected, Xiao Yu has been lying to her.

It's not easy to explain.

Don't worry. I know what to do.

Jin'er,

is that the gold-jade token in your hand?

That's the supreme imperial token.

Zhong Li couldn't have had it.

Are you really so oblivious?

Little master, what are you talking about?

Your Highness, what do you need?

I need you to be gone.

I think you need a person to serve you.

I don't need anyone.

But...

Spare the formalities.

What brought you here?

I was thinking about the meat paste from your private kitchen.

So I came before dinner.

I received some litchis recently.

I brought the litchis to you.

Thank you.

Lvyi, tell the private kitchen to prepare dinner.

Yes.

Take a seat, Your Highness.

You all are dismissed.

About the cellar...

It's due to my negligence.

I almost caused serious consequences.

Please punish me.

It's not your fault. Get up.

Thank you.

I hear that you have got a new maid

who can make good wines.

Good.

You won't fail to serve wine at the Swing Feast

and the Princess Dowager won't fly into a rage.

Jinyan is clever indeed.

She came up with the idea of the begonia wine.

Perhaps this year's Swing Feast will be even more interesting.

Yes.

Where is she?

She was making wine at the winery

before she went out in the afternoon.

She must have gone to receive the new wine.

She hasn't come back yet.

Alright.

How is your relationship with Zhong Li?

We're just acquaintances.

I never asked him unnecessary questions.

I don't know what happens

at Prince Yu's place.

Jin'er,

you think I'm trying to obtain information from you.

No. No.

Little master, you jest.

I remember that when you were little,

you hated being lied to the most.

But if

someone lied to you from beginning to end,

what would you do?

What made you ask?

Little master, you're being weird today.

What if Zhong Li lied to you?

What will you do?

If he lied to me,

I'd kill him and sacrifice him to heaven.

Jin'er,

the people in the mansion are unpredictable and you are kind.

I fear that you'll be used.

I'm quite shrewd.

By the way, little master,

did you ask a servant to take me here

just to tell me this?

Of course not.

I just hear that you took over the job

of making the wine for the Swing Feast from Consort Wen.

I've been confined to the mansion and unable to move around.

I can't find the wine for you.

But I know

there is a private library in Sovereign Prince Yu's Mansion.

Numerous remarkable books are stored in the private library,

including technical books.

There must be more than enough books on wine-making.

Where is the private library?

In a place west to the Treasure Division.

The place is called Huayan Pavilion.

Xiao Yu,

I don't care what feelings you have for Jin'er,

your relationship with her must end now.

You have pretended to be Zhong Li for too long.

It's time to present yourself as Prince Yu.

How come that wine-making maid is still not back?

I'll ask my servants to find her.

No need.

You care about Jinyan very much.

You have asked about her repeatedly.

Zhong Li

misses her.

So I asked for him.

I see.

Your Highness.

Where are you going?

I need to leave.

But you just said you'd stay for dinner.

It just occurred to me

that I have a few important memorials to review.

I will visit you another day.

Goodbye, Your Highness.

(Huayan Pavilion)

Stop.

This token is really precious.

It shows that Prince Yu favors Zhong Li strongly.

I need to look up something important.

You must not disturb me.

Yes.

How did it go?

As you expected,

Jinyan has entered Huayan Pavilion.

Good.

You've stayed in Qingxin Hall for enough hours.

Are you going to Huayan Pavilion now?

Jin'er needs to face certain things alone.

Let's return to the mansion.

Yes.

(Qingxin Hall)

Eunuch Li.

Your Highness.

Your Highness.

(The Science of Agriculture)

If I had got this book

when I was working at the Garden Service Division,

Lord An might have lost faster.

Portraits.

Gaozu.

It's the imperial portrait of Emperor Gaozu.

Emperor Wen.

Emperor Gaozu.

Emperor Gaozong.

Emperor Taizong.

Then this must be the portrait

of the current Sovereign Prince.

Let me see

how handsome the current Sovereign Prince

who Zhong Li defended by all means is.

Don't move.
