[The Princess Royal]

[Adapted from Mo Shu Bai's novel, The Princess Royal on jjwxc.net]

[This is a work of fiction.]

[Episode 26]

Wait for me!

Slowly.

This looks so pretty.

Given your young master's foul temper,

they're going to split soon or later.

And I will stand a chance by then.

Well,

do you think

flicking that lock of hair

makes you look particularly handsome?

My young master should have

split you in half earlier

so that you won't make sarcastic comments.

Fine.

We'll see if my prediction turns out correct.

It won't.

My young master

is destined to be the Prince Consort.

Just give up.

Lanterns!

Lanterns for sale!

Here.

Why are you staring at my face?

Don't tell me you scratched my face too.

I didn't.

I made sure to be careful.

Does that sound like

what a princess should say?

You little shrew.

Who are you calling a shrew?

I got you some river lanterns.

You like them, don't you?

Later, you can put the lanterns on the river

and make a wish.

I thought you didn't believe in these things.

I didn't.

These are just something made to fool naive little girls.

Why would a man like me believe them?

What are you doing, then?

But ever since I met you,

I'd rather believe in every Immortal.

Put the lantern.

I know

most people around you

would sacrifice love for power.

You may also think

that your future

is more important than feelings.

But, if I really do that,

you would never know

that some feelings

cannot be traded for power.

I became a court official

and fought for power

just to get closer to you.

So,

if I were to leave you to gain more power...

even if it's just temporary

or just mentioning the idea,

I would never do so.

So, you didn't want to get a divorce

because you were afraid of uncertainties that might happen afterwards?

Yes,

but that's not all of it.

I don't want you to lose faith in love.

So, what are your plans after this?

Well,

I'll do as you say.

It's going to upset you, though.

It won't.

I understand your true feelings now,

so I won't get disappointed

or scared.

As for you,

even though you were born in the palace,

you never belonged to the palace.

The kind of relationship

that your heart yearns for...

is purer than what you've imagined.

♪Who gazes at the sky from afar?♪

I have to give you

whatever you want.

♪In the night's chill breeze♪

You won't have to compromise,

not even a little, to get what you want.

♪What is she singing for?♪

♪The wind caresses the hills♪

♪The wind causes ripples on calm water♪

Besides,

I will prove to you someday

that only I, Pei Wenxuan, am capable

of giving you such a pure feeling.

Look.

The lanterns are up.

Rong.

I will give it my all

to present you with all the best things in the world.

♪She's trod a lengthy path♪

♪Memories lost then found♪

What wish did you make?

♪Gazing idly as clouds roll by♪

And you?

It's a secret.

♪She holds a red candle♪

You're keeping it a secret too?

♪To brave the thick fog♪

♪Life can be bitter sometimes♪

I wished...

♪Experience it with grace♪

for being together

with you now and forever.

♪She ascends the pavilion♪

♪No stars were in sight♪

Perhaps...

♪So she lights a lamp♪

♪The wind sends the bamboo-copters flying♪

We can consider having a child.

♪The wind strokes the old, ornate zither♪

♪Dust falls from the high walls♪

Aren't you scared?

This would create

a new and bigger weakness for us.

If you're not scared,

so aren't I.

[Taiji Hall]

♪Amid the vast world, a wanderer returns♪

Your Majesty.

The farmers in Jiangnan have started planting rice seedlings.

Due to this year's colder temperatures,

the sowing period began later than that in previous years.

Your Majesty.

The imperial examination candidates have all arrived in the capital.

The examinations will begin soon,

and we will need to make arrangements for personnel involved.

I hope you will swiftly approve

our request for the staff mobilizations.

I understood.

Court dismissed.

[Taiji Hall]

Mr. Pei.

Eunuch Fu.

His Majesty is summoning you.

Please lead the way, Eunuch Fu.

There are quite a number of talented scholars

among this year's candidates.

I was too narrow-minded after all.

Many talents lie among the commoners.

Anyone who can win your appreciation

must be trustworthy indeed.

Rongqing, you're back.

I'm back.

But you are not the one I used to know.

I'm sorry.

This is my only way to protect you.

My love for you has never changed.

Give me more time.

Wait for me.

Mr. Su.

Mr. Su?

Therefore, it is important to select a good chief examiner.

You're right, Mr. Su.

I have some people to recommend myself.

Why don't we talk about it while walking?

Sure.

[People]

Your Majesty.

Greetings, Your Majesty.

You may rise.

Pei Wenxuan, I called for you

to discuss your recent promotion

to the Vice Minister of Personnel.

You've been rising through the ranks too quickly,

and many are not convinced.

Do you have any plans for this?

Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty.

I know that I am not that experienced,

[People's hearts] but I have my seniors to help me

and I have built relationships in the Censorate.

Therefore, rest assured, Your Majesty.

However, you're the Prince Consort,

and Pingyue has been offending many officials lately.

There are many officials from the Xie Family

working in The Ministry of Personnel.

I'm afraid you'll have a hard time being transferred there.

How about this?

I'll transfer you to the Ministry of Rites

to make your life easier, what do say you?

Your Majesty.

Please seek justice for me.

What justice do you want me to seek for you?

Your Majesty.

I would like to request

for a divorce.

I hope you will approve it.

What did you say?

You want a divorce?

What's wrong with my daughter?

Why do you want to divorce her?

Pei Wenxuan, how dare you!

Your Majesty.

I... I... I've suffered.

Look.

It's the Princess' doing.

Why were you two actually fighting?

She even hurt you badly.

You didn't hit her, did you?

I...

No, no!

The Princess is so noble. I wouldn't dare.

Get up.

Tell me

what happened exactly.

It started

with a talisman.

When the Princess returned home yesterday,

I went to fetch her,

but she told everyone outside

that I sought a talisman randomly

that made her fall into Consort Rou's trap.

Your Majesty.

Why would I do such a thing?

Here it is.

This isn't even my handwriting.

Actually, I believe

that you probably

have your own judgment now.

I don't wish to talk more about it,

but what I'm going to say next

is something I cannot tolerate any longer.

Your Majesty, you do know

that I suggested to the Princess to establish the Inspectorate Office

to share your burden.

But now,

many officials in the palace,

including the Crown Prince and the Empress,

are unhappy

towards the Princess because of this.

Last night,

the Princess and I got into an argument.

In anger, she actually called me

a lowly and despicable man.

She even said

I was worse than the entertainers from Nanfeng House.

Isn't that humiliating?

I indeed came from a humble background,

but I am a man after all.

Even though she is the Princess,

she can't insult me like that.

I married the Princess

to fulfill your command

and my duty as an official.

Why am I

getting humiliated instead?

Let's take a step back.

No matter how unreasonable Her Highness is,

I can tolerate her behaviors.

But now, I have to say

as her husband and your official, I have remained loyal.

But what about the Princess?

She went on a lantern night cruise

together with a dozen entertainers.

How am I...

How is everyone else

going to think of me?

Your Majesty.

I know I'm wrong

and I have disappointed you.

But, I implore you

that for the sake of my diligent father

and my loyal service,

please permit me to divorce Princess Pingyue.

Your Majesty, I really can't live like this anymore.

If that's the case,

since Pingyue has been overbearing indeed,

and you're set on a divorce,

I shall not force you.

How about this?

You go home first

while I draft a decree.

Thank you, Your Majesty. You're brilliant.

I'll take my leave.

Consort Rou said

that the talisman was fake.

Princess Pingyue took it with her.

What if they try to verify it?

Hongde has been taken away as well.

Mr. Su,

if he ever babbles,

Consort Rou would be implicated.

He won't get to talk.

Tell Consort Rou to rest assured.

What about the talisman?

Since the Princess took it,

even if they find out that it's fake,

what can they do?

What if they tell His Majesty

that the Princess told a lie?

Then why would the Princess do that?

If His Majesty has his doubts,

he would try to test Pei Wenxuan and the Princess.

Pei Wenxuan

would expose himself by then.

Why are you so sure, Mr. Su?

Pei Wenxuan might just agree

to get a divorce instead.

He'd never agree to it.

Because he won't.

He dares not.

And he doesn't even want to.

Everyone has weaknesses.

Pei Wenxuan has always

maintained a clean reputation,

and he's good at building relationships.

That's why he has all sorts of talents and tricks at his disposal.

It's not easy to thwart

his political career.

If you try to take him down directly, it'd cost us even more.

He cares about the Princess.

He cares about their relationship.

He would never abandon the Princess for power.

As long as he doesn't get a divorce,

His Majesty will remain doubtful,

and Pei Wenxuan will feel hard to turn the tide.

What if he does agree to divorce the Princess?

Then he deserves to die.

Anyone who lets the Princess down...

shall be killed.

Your Majesty.

The writing on the talisman is fake.

Fulai.

Do you know what's the toughest thing about being a ruler?

Your Majesty, how would I know

the answer to that?

Everyone around you may be deceiving you.

While anyone else can obtain the truth easily,

as the Emperor,

I have to search for the truth amid a trove of lies.

What's more, these truths

are often consisting of the half-lies

they tell me.

But, you're the wisest man in the country, Your Majesty.

The wisest man?

How am I wise?

The talisman is fake.

Then is Pei Wenxuan completely innocent?

Tell me

who do you think is speaking the truth?

Your Majesty, you're putting me in a spot.

I remember that when I was a boy,

someone kept stealing my persimmons.

I investigated it for a long time,

and just as I thought,

you were the thief.

Do you remember that?

Of course.

How could I ever forget?

Actually, there's something else

that I've been hiding from you.

There's more?

Back then,

I was punished, so I got angry.

No amount of persimmons could quell my anger.

So,

I stole something else from you.

How dare you.

What else did you steal?

Crab meatballs,

your favorite dish when you were young.

So,

even back then,

you were already getting cheeky

and fat at that time.

Those were the good old days.

There was nothing much to be concerned about.

Even if I couldn't guess it right,

I'd just lose a few persimmons at worst.

But, it's different now.

If I make the wrong guess,

I'd be losing the entire country.

Your Majesty, about the Prince Consort and Princess Pingyue's divorce,

should I draft a decree now?

Just put it aside for now.

Your Majesty, Consort Rou has always been gentle.

She's always obeyed your commands.

Now that she brought Hongde into the palace,

I'm afraid someone must be manipulating her.

I'm worried...

Well,

get someone to investigate this.

Yes, Your Majesty.

Young Master!

Her Highness is resting.

I know.

Tell everyone in the inner courtyard to leave.

Go.

Why would I stay in the sleeping chambers?

I'm sleeping in the study from now on!

Young Master!

The study is this way...

Don't make everyone else hear you.

I'm having a falling-out with Her Highness.

No one could see me meeting her.

Why?

You...

Guard the study's entrance.

If anyone asks,

tell them I'm in the study.

Thoughtful indeed.

Rong.

Rong.

You're back.

How was today?

What did my father say?

Did he approve our divorce?

He didn't say that.

But

I complained about you.

You, little cat, bit and scratched me.

I don't want you anymore.

This little cat is going to apologize to you.

How?

How?

Seriously, what happened next.

Then, I complained about Consort Rou.

I said

she tricked you with a talisman.

His Majesty should realize

that someone might be using him.

Then, His Majesty said

he would draft a decree to allow us to divorce,

and I came back.

But, Father has always favored Consort Rou.

What you did

probably won't be very effective.

If His Majesty feels

that Consort Rou is being used to bring him down,

he wouldn't forgive her.

You mean

my father needs to realize

that Consort Rou is manipulated by the noble families.

Your complaint alone won't be enough.

That's alright.

Even in weiqi, you play one move after another.

Do you think when someone tricked me,

I would not trick them back?

Anyone can bluff.

Mr. Pei, you need to show me what you've got.

We'll see.

Ms. Du.

Mr. Pei?

[Tunyu Study] You're already

a skilled calligrapher yourself,

and it's been quite some time since you last came for lessons.

What brings you here today?

Ms. Du, I have a favor to ask of you.

[Dispel all misfortunes] Do you think

you can replicate this handwriting?

This person has a solid foundation in the clerical script.

It's not that hard,

but

you know my rules.

I don't forge letters and documents.

Yes.

But, what if

it's for the sake of justice?

For justice?

Your Highness.

Why do you look so tired?

Did you not sleep last night?

I'm fine. Take a look at this.

What's this?

Eat something first.

[Testimony]

You went out early in the morning

to forge Hongde's handwriting?

Read the content carefully.

You actually wrote

that Su Rongqing went to Qingfeng Taoist Temple

and threatened Hongde with his power

to deceive Consort Rou

to frame us.

Why did you leave Consort Rou out of this, though?

We're offering His Majesty a way out through Consort Rou.

If we don't leave her out of this,

His Majesty wouldn't be able to act.

It's just that,

by doing this,

we're literally declaring war against Su Rongqing.

I'm afraid he already has.

Your Majesty.

Our men reported

that Princess and the Prince Consort are sleeping separately.

Let them be.

Then, what about the divorce?

It's tough for a lady to remarry.

Let's see how it goes first.

Yes, Your Majesty.

[Inspectorate Office]

Your Highness!

Your Highness, I was tricked!

Please spare me, Your Highness!

Please spare me!

You may leave now.

I'll talk to him alone.

Your Highness.

I'd love to learn how to interrogate...

Let's go.

I'll buy you some drinks.

Let's go.

You said someone tricked you.

Who was it?

I... I don't know.

You don't know?

Are you taking me as a fool?

No, Your Highness.

I... I really don't know.

All I know

is that a nobleman came to Qingfeng Taoist Temple that night

and summoned me.

I... I don't even know

who he is.

I didn't even get to see his guard's face.

But, he kidnapped my son.

I had no choice.

You have a son?

Go on. What happened next?

Then, he tied me up

and put me into his carriage.

He told me

that he would expose

your intent to delay the Crown Prince's wedding.

This isn't a lie, is it?

That itself is a lie.

I've never done anything like that.

Yes.

It's true that you have never called for me.

But, no matter what,

I really had no choice.

Your Highness, I hope you'll show me mercy

and spare my life.

I can show you some mercy,

but you'll have to listen to me.

You didn't know who called for you, right?

But, I do.

Su Rongqing.

Second Young Master Su?

I want you to identify him.

Identify him?

How is that different from asking me to die?

I know what you're thinking.

You think

that your son is in someone else's hands,

and I have nothing to coerce you

other than your own life.

Given your background,

if you identify Su Rongqing,

the Su Family would never let you off.

Since you're going to die,

you might as well keep your son alive.

But, only I...

can protect the both of you.

I'll tell you something else I know.

Tell me if I'm wrong.

Five years ago,

you conned a young lady

for thousands of taels

by telling her that she needed

to change her fate on your popularity.

Four years ago,

you had an affair with an official's wife.

While she visited Qingfeng Taoist Temple every month to pray,

she was actually in your bedroom.

Three years ago...

Your Highness.

How did you know so much?

If you don't want people to know your wrongdoings, then don't do it.

You've deceived and harmed so many people.

Don't you feel guilty at all?

Guilty?

Why should I feel guilty?

There are tons of other people who are more evil than me.

You must have seen people who would kill

for a meager sum of money.

That's pure evil.

People like me

commit sins once in a while.

You may say that bad guys like us

don't deserve to live in this world.

But, what if there are plenty of people like me?

Would that be mankind's fault

or the society's fault?

That's why I hope

that my efforts can make

the noblemen and commoners live together in harmony,

and the world at peace.

Your Highness.

I admit that this country isn't perfect,

but this shouldn't be

a reason or excuse for your sins.

If as the Princess said,

I can't afford to offend

both the Princess and the Su Family.

Your Majesty.

Princess Pingyue is requesting an audience.

Why is she here at this late hour?

Father.

Father, please seek justice for me.

What is it?

Father, you need to discipline Pei Wenxuan for me.

He's gone too far.

What exactly happened?

A few days ago,

Pei Wenxuan and I had a quarrel.

He's been ignoring me since then,

and he even said he wanted a divorce.

He said you've already drafted a decree.

I don't believe him.

Why would a father order his daughter to get a divorce?

If I do get a divorce,

who else can I look for?

If you don't want to get divorced,

then why were you cruising with those men from Nanfeng House?

I was just trying to cross him.

Father, I've realized my mistake.

Please persuade him for me.

He can't ignore me forever.

He's even moved to the outer courtyard.

How about you command him to come back?

Ridiculous!

I appointed you as the Supervisor of the Inspectorate Office,

and now you're indulging yourself

in debauchery

instead of fulfilling your duties.

What's wrong with you?

You've wronged me, Father.

We may quarrel sometimes,

but I still do my work.

In fact,

you haven't replied to my memorial

that I submitted a few days ago.

What are you planning to do?

What memorial?

Hongde's testimony.

I submitted all the evidence several days ago.

We just need a word from you

to start investigating Su Rongqing.

How is Su Rongqing related to this?

Well...

Hongde said

it was Su Rongqing who went to him

to tell Consort Rou all that.

Haven't you read my memorial?

Fulai.

Go to the Remonstration Office

to bring the Princess' memorial here.

I want to review it now.

Yes, Your Majesty.

As soon as Father reads the memorial,

he will find out that Su Rongqing

has been using Consort Rou for the noble families' benefit.

Father will start to get suspicious,

and Su Rongqing can no longer associate himself

with Prince Su.

If this memorial gets submitted,

you would be implicated, Mr. Su.

On the occasion of the assessment for the position of Minister,

Everyone has high hopes on you.

I was worried that this memorial may hinder you,

so I took it out secretly.

Xuanji.

I transferred you there,

and it seems that my plan has backfired.

This round...

We have lost.

[Testimony] This testimony is a fake.

It's fake?

The Princess deliberately submitted this fake testimony

for you to steal.

If my guess is correct,

the Princess must be already in the palace now.

And His Majesty

must have already sent someone to retrieve this memorial.

Go back now.

I'll put it back right away.

No need.

Even if you do,

the Princess would claim that her memorial has been switched.

Once they start investigating,

you'd be implicated as well.

By then,

you'd lose your job.

What should I do then?

Leave this thing here.

Pretend that you don't know anything.

Are you supposed to be on shift now?

No.

That's great.

Go back home and sleep.

Pretend that you've never been here.

I'll take my leave.

I plotted and schemed

to make Hongde accuse the Princess of delaying the Crown Prince's wedding.

I even prepared a marriage talisman

to undermine His Majesty's trust in Pei Wenxuan and the Princess.

But the Princess used this to her advantage instead.

Mu Hong.

Young Master.

Get a servant

to sneak into the palace

and burn the Remonstration Office.

When the fire starts to burn,

make sure he doesn't leave.

Just leave him there.

You want to burn the Remonstration Office?

Isn't that a bit too much?

It's not just too much.

It's the boldest and craziest idea ever.

Young Master...

Just do as I say,

and wait for the results.

Whatever will be, will be.

Go.

Yes, sir.

[Li Rong, Supervisor of the Inspectorate Office]

[Su Rongqing, Vice Minister of Personnel]

Your Majesty, bad news!

The Remonstration Office is on fire!

Your Majesty!

Say that again.

What's on fire?

The Remonstration Office.

It was already burning

while I was on my way there.

Many officials are still trapped inside.

How did the fire start?

We don't know yet.

Father, let me take a look there.

The building itself is nothing,

but we need to save the people and memorials inside.

No need.

I will go there myself.

Split into two teams!

Team One, take water from the wells to put out fire!

Team Two, save the people and memorials inside!

Go!

Your Majesty!

Your Majesty, why are you here?

It's dangerous here. You should go back.

Yes, we'll handle the situation here.

Does any of you know who set fire to the Remonstration Office?

I just received the news,

and I came over right away.

Perhaps someone knocked over a candle stand.

I'm asking who is this bold in court to burn the Remonstration Office!

Your Majesty.

Your Highness.

The Remonstration Office is on fire.

The Remonstration Office has always been patrolled

every night since it was established.

Why the sudden fire?

His Majesty summoned the Princess earlier

and wanted to retrieve Hongde's testimony from the Remonstration Office.

Not long after that, the Remonstration Office was on fire.

He's even burning the Remonstration Office.

Looks like Su Rongqing is really cornered.

Go to the Princess's Mansion

and devise a counterplan with the Prince Consort.

Yes, Your Highness.

Greetings, Father.

You may rise.

You said Official Su was involved,

and your memorial was burned.

Thus, I called you here

to confront each other directly.

Su Rongqing said

he did not know Hongde.

What do you have to say?

Whether Su Rongqing knows him or not,

Hongde has confessed everything.

It's just that his testimony, together with the Remonstration Office,

has suspiciously perished in the fire.

The material evidence may have been gone,

but he's still there.

Summon Hongde here.

I have done nothing wrong.

Your Highness, someone must have

instigated you to make you come to this conclusion.

I also agree we should call Hongde over

to ask him in person.

Summon Hongde here?

I couldn't persuade him that day in prison.

After all, his son is still in Su Rongqing's hands.

He wouldn't help me at this point.

But I have no other options now.

Summon him.

Yes, Your Majesty.

While we're waiting,

Pingyue, tell me

why you said

Official Su had instigated Hongde to accuse you.

For some reason,

Mr. Su went to Hongde.

He kidnapped Hongde's illegitimate son

and used him to coerce Hongde

to accuse me

of trying to delay the Crown Prince's wedding.

Then, he took advantage of his position as Prince Su's tutor

and cajoled Consort Rou

into bringing Hongde to the palace.

Mr. Su.

I have no grudge against you.

Why are you framing me?

Official Su, what say you?

Your Highness, you're claiming

that I was trying to set you up

by making Hongde say

that you were trying to delay the Crown Prince's wedding.

They why didn't I ask him to accuse you of treason.

You should ask yourself that question, Mr. Su.

The Crown Prince is all grown up now.

It's imperative that he get married as soon as possible.

If I want the best for him,

I would have chosen

a suitable noble lady for him instead.

Why would I want to delay his wedding?

As his elder sister, why would I harm him?

Only you can answer that.

So, you're saying

that Su Rongqing burned the Remonstration Office down.

Now that the evidence is destroyed,

Hongde will be summoned to the palace.

Won't he expose everything by then?

Would Hongde dear to enter the palace?

Thank you.

[Zhengwu Gate] Just hand him over to us.

Thank you, Eunuch Fu.

This way, Daoist Hongde.

Eunuch Fu, you have to vouch for us.

He was alive when he left the Inspectorate Office.

It's true, Eunuch Fu.

This is not the time to talk about this.

I need to report this to His Majesty.

Your Majesty,

Hongde was killed on the way here.

What did you say?

Bring me there.

I'd like to go there too.

None of you shall leave!

Let the post-mortem examiner examine his body.

Yes, Your Majesty.

Now that Hongde is dead, no one can prove the truth anymore.

But now, in Father's eyes,

Su Rongqing's reputation has been tainted.

If Hongde dies,

both human testimony and the material evidence will be gone.

No.

If there's no evidence,

Father won't be able to convict Su Rongqing.

He may be doubtful,

but while he doubts Su Rongqing

He will also suspect you and Rong.

That's when the next step comes in.

If His Majesty begins to suspect

the truth in the Princess's words,

the only thing left to investigate

would be the whereabouts of Hongde's son.

The results would be interesting.

You said Hongde had a son?

Yes, Father.

And he's in Su Rongqing's hands?

That's right.

Your Majesty...

Silence.

Fulai, investigate now.

Yes, Your Majesty.

His Majesty may not be able

to find out where exactly Hongde's son is,

but he'd discover

how the child was taken away.

There must be traces of the abduction.

For example, a passerby might have accidentally witnessed

the child's kidnapping,

and recognized the Su Family's emblem.

That's a common possibility, isn't it?

So what?

Even if my father knows the child was abducted by the Su Family,

so what?

Since His Majesty already knows

that someone brought Hongde into the palace,

and that Hongde's son

was taken by the Su Family,

who do you think

His Majesty would suspect

when there's no evidence?

Hongde cannot afford to offend

both the Su Family and the Princess.

This is the last kind act he can do

to protect his son.

Your Highness.

I need to go to the palace to pick up your sister.

Shouldn't you be pretending that your marriage is on the rocks?

We're pretending that we're seemingly in harmony but actually at variance.

So, sometimes we need to pretend we're in harmony.

I'll take my leave, then.

Take care, Your Highness.

Guard this area.

No one else may come near.

Yes, Eunuch Fu.

Sir,

please tell me what happened

that night.

I was working my shift as a night watcher that night.

When I passed by the street where the Taoist Temple is,

I saw a boy being abducted by several men.

I recognized one of them.

He's from the Su Family.

Eunuch Fu, I have completed my investigation.

Your Majesty,

this is the post-mortem examiner's result.

The post-mortem examiner said it was suicide.

And the Su Family...

Su Rongqing.

Hand over Hongde's son now.

Your Majesty, I'm wronged.

I don't know where you heard this from.

Why don't you summon him here

so I can confront him directly?
