My Lord, the imperial prison has caught fire.

Yan Changyun has perished in the fire; no remains were left.

It seems the time has come; we can make our move.

The imperial prison caught fire. No remains were left.

Such a trivial trick can still deceive me.

Furthermore, Your Majesty has taken Fu Xiao as his Imperial Concubine.

Fu Xiao and Yan Changyun's love is stronger than gold.

If Yan Changyun is not dead,

then Fu Xiao would not marry His Majesty.

So, is it possible that Yan Changyun is really dead?

Besides, the young lady has been kept in Phoenix Rite Palace by Zhao Yuan.

I heard she has fallen quite ill recently.

And she doesn't have a single person to take care of her.

I'm afraid Heng'er has been implicated by me.

No, I can't wait any longer.

Xue Ying, go do what you must.

Yes.

Sir, we've just received news from the capital.

Yan Changyun is dead, and Fu Xiao will be conferred as concubine in a few days.

The time has arrived; it is time for us to act.

Do you think all that we have done is worth it?

What do you mean?

Everything we have done, is all for today?

Yes, it's all for today.

But now that the moment is here,

I don't know whether what I did was right or wrong.

I personally gave the order to kill my sister.

My beloved disciple also departed because of me.

[Princess Jiayang and Qing Li Spirit Tablet] Those I care about and those who care about me...

have all left me.

Could this possibly be the outcome I wanted?

I don't care what outcome you wanted.

I've been lying in wait for this moment for many years.

Write a letter right now, and have the Ning Kingdom cavalry press on the borders.

Together we will coordinate inside and out.

Once I seize the throne of the Southern Kingdom,

I will raise an army to support you becoming the king of the Ning Kingdom.

This is a case of killing two birds with one stone;

don't be foolish.

[Purple Aura Coming from the East]

Fu Xiao is going to marry His Majesty tomorrow.

From then on, you will have no further involvement.

I still hate her.

She kept saying she loved Brother Yan.

Brother Yan just died, and she's in a hurry to marry someone else.

It's despicable.

Chu Yue, stop hating her.

Fu Xiao's marriage to Your Majesty saved Boss's life.

What did you say? Brother Yan isn't dead?

Fu Xiao married a man she doesn't love to save Yan Changyun.

But you choose to live in hatred.

If you still want to find him, you will see him.

I'll take my leave.

Unexpectedly, she actually…

[All Under Heaven in Peace]

[Chengqian Gate]

[Double Happiness]

"Heaven and Earth have their own way, the universe is in order.

The commoner maiden, Fu Xiao, embodies grace and wisdom.

Blessed with heavenly grace to carry on the ancestral temple.

To secure the state.

The conferment of Fu Xiao as the Imperial Noble Consort, First Rank.

Bestow the Golden Scroll and the Golden Seal.

I hereby order."

[Prosperity]

Thank you, Your Majesty.

Thank you, Your Majesty.

My beloved consort, please rise.

Thank you, Your Majesty.

Your subjects congratulate Your Majesty and the Imperial Noble Consort.

The ceremony is complete!

Your Majesty, lead the Imperial Noble Consort…

Your Majesty. Your Majesty, something terrible has happened.

- Your Majesty, there's a rebellion. - There is a conspiracy within the palace.

The rebel forces outside... they have all stormed in.

They're coming in! Hurry, let's go.

Kill them.

Fu Xiao!

Stop!

I heard there's a grand celebration in the palace today.

I've come especially to congratulate the two of you.

What? Am I not welcome?

Xiao Quan, I only regret not having killed you that day.

But today, you won't escape.

Aren't you overestimating yourself?

Look around you; whose people do you think they are?

Right now, you're nothing but prey in my hands.

Xiao Quan, do you think that by leading troops to force the palace that I would yield?

Let me tell you.

A traitor like you will not meet a good end.

Then let me also tell you.

Whether I am a traitor or the chosen one

is not for you to say.

Protect His Majesty! Guard him!

Protect Your Majesty!

[Southern Kingdom Palace]

Ever since you ascended the throne,

you neglect state affairs and indulge in trivial pursuits.

Lacking the virtue of a benevolent ruler.

What right do you have to sit on this throne?

Stop fighting!

Brother, please don't be so obstinate and unrepentant.

- Heng'er. - Brother.

What are you doing? Get out of the way.

I'll beg His Majesty to spare your life.

- Heng'er. - Brother.

You must not make the same mistake again.

Step aside, Heng'e.

Your Majesty.

Zhao Yuan, write the decree swiftly, ceding the throne to me.

Xiao Quan, with me here, you won't succeed.

You are looking for death, aren't you?

Fine.

I will grant you that wish today,

letting you be buried alongside this dog emperor.

You're indeed not dead.

Yan Changyun.

The time has come, execute the traitors.

Yan Changyun,

no…

Qin Yan.

Why are you helping Zhao Yuan?

The imperial edict back then was issued by him personally.

He doesn't even dare to admit it now, does he?

He never considered vindicating your Qin Family.

Why would you want to sell your life for such a person?

Xiao Quan, you've step-by-step forced yourself into a dead end.

And yet, you still haven't given up hope.

Xiao Quan, I have endured humiliation for so many years

just waiting for this opportunity!

To lure you, this traitorous villain, out and eliminate you once and for all.

It seems you were well prepared.

Impressive, Heaven has also abandoned me.

Today, whether to kill or cut off my flesh, do as you please.

Your Majesty!

Heng'er.

- Quickly summon the imperial physician. - Yes.

Your Majesty, I beg you, spare my brother.

Don't speak.

Perhaps, marrying you was a mistake in itself.

But to have met you in this life...

is enough.

Why are you so foolish?

Heng'er!

Heng'er!

Heng'er!

There's great chaos in the capital.

Xiao Quan led people to storm the Imperial Palace, rebelling against the crown.

The palace is already a scene of bloodshed and carnage.

It's said that Yan Changyun descended like a divine soldier.

His Majesty was also well prepared.

They struck from both inside and outside, annihilating the rebels.

It was a close shave, truly.

- Drink some tea. - Come on.

Let's go, leave the Southern Kingdom.

I fear there's no longer a place for us here.

Master, to just leave like this?

Won't we see Senior Sister Fu Xiao anymore?

No.

Let's go.

[Phoenix Rite Palace]

Everything here was prepared for you by Her Majesty.

This is the orchid she planted herself.

Together with sandalwood, it was ground into powder bit by bit,

and made it into an orchid fragrance.

Because she was afraid that you wouldn't sleep well.

What urgent matter do you have?

Your Majesty, it is the orchid fragrance

that I made with dew from the early morning.

Try it and see if it's different from before.

What is the difference?

Your Majesty.

Your Majesty, do you see any difference in my makeup today?

No.

Hurry up!

Hurry, keep up!

[Seal]

You want to die, right?

[Guangfu Hermitage]

[Hall of Guanyin]

This matter has already been settled.

But I found that among the officials there are many

who are insider agents for Xiao Quan.

The list is in my hands.

You tell me.

Who should be killed or not?

Well…

I have decided not to pursue this matter further.

Because I believe

that all ministers are willingto assist me with all their heart.

I have already decreed to reduce taxation,

and enable the Southern Kingdom's citizens to recover, live, and work in peace.

I believe that as long as we are united,

the Southern Kingdom will surely enjoy peace and prosperity.

- Your Majesty is wise. - Your Majesty is wise.

- Long live the emperor! - Long live the emperor!

My beloved minister, you may rise.

- Thank you, Your Majesty. - Thank you, Your Majesty.

Your Majesty, what about Qin Yan?

There's no need to say more about Qin Yan.

We have already drafted the imperial edict.

The Emperor of Heaven and Earth has issued an edict.

"Duke Ding, Qin Wenzhong,

was harmed by villains during his tenure.

He suffered injustice for 15 years, and now the truth has been uncovered.

the Guanyou incident was indeed fabricated slander. [Notice]

Qin Wenzhong protected the nation and its people, devotedly serving his country.

Posthumously bestow upon Qin Wenzhong the title of First Rank Duke.

Enshrine him in the Temple of Ancestors, and enshrine him in the shrine.

Pardon all those implicated in this case, for the sake of the world!

[Memorial Tablet of Father Qin Wenzhong]

Father. Mother. I have been unfilial.

I made you wait for 15 years.

Have you seen this?

I finally cleared the Qin Family of injustice.

[Notice]

His Majesty has issued an edict to proclaim to all under Heaven.

Back then, during the Guanyou incident, the Qin Family was wronged.

From now on,

no one will ever say that our Qin Family are traitorous conspirators.

Our Qin Family has finally cleared its name.

[Memorial Tablet of Father Qin Wenzhong]

I shall acknowledge contributions and bestow rewards.

Both of you deserve the highest merit. What reward would you like to wish for?

Your Majesty, having the Qin Family's name cleared and pardoning those implicated from the Qin family,

is already the greatest reward to me.

What about you, Fu Xiao?

Your Majesty, I would like a courtyard, jewels, gold, and also…

I'm just joking, Your Majesty.

In this life, I desire nothing but him.

That's about enough.

What are your plans for the future?

Will you enter the court as officials or become wealthy landlords?

I can grant you any of these.

There is one thing I would ask Your Majesty to permit.

Go ahead.

The Ning Kingdom's cavalry still threatens our Southern Kingdom.

I wish to rush to the border battlefiel, and fight side by side with Tianjiao

to defend our nation's territory.

Your sincere devotion is rare. I grant your request.

Thank you, Your Majesty.

And you?

Of course, I'll go to the frontier with him.

I never want to be parted from him in this life ever again.

Enough!

If your title ceremony hadn't been ruined,

you would now be my wife.

What? Can't I make a joke now?

However, I have a question that both of you must answer seriously.

When did you plan this self-sacrificing ruse?

Why didn't I know anything about it?

It concerns the dignity of the royal family.

Before the realm, right and wrong are sometimes not so important.

What do you mean, Your Majesty?

Qin Yan, you must die.

If Your Majesty truly wished to kill me, why come to find me?

What do you really mean?

Xiao Quan, conspiring with the Ning Kingdom, will soon rebel with an army.

He has now fled, fearing his crimes, like a tiger retreating into the mountains.

The matter of the rebellion hangs over my heart like a sharp sword.

So, as long as I die, Xiao Quan, without any worries, can rise in rebellion.

Then, at that time, you can capture them all at once.

That's right. You hold the command of millions of the Thousand Feather Guards.

Each one loyal and devoted.

If you are still alive, he would certainly not dare to make a rash move.

But if you died, it would be different.

Brother Yan, I need your cooperation to stage a ruse.

With a formidable enemy ahead,

I am prepared to die if necessary.

Then, if it's all an act, why did you still marry me?

You are the one who suggested that I marry you.

I had to just go along with the plan.

But it's all thanks to you.

If it weren't for you, how could we have convinced Xiao Quan, that old fox?

Then it is indeed my contribution.

So, it seems that your acting skills have reached perfection.

- Deceivingly authentic, so real. - Of course.

It's me you're talking about.

All right, it's getting late. We should set off now.

Fu Xiao, you go out and wait for me.

I have a few words to say to His Majesty.

Okay.

Your Majesty, then I shall take my leave.

No rush.

You may fool Fu Xiao, but you can't hide it from me.

You really took advantage of the situation when you married Fu Xiao.

I think you just seized the opportunity to benefit yourself.

Isn't it better to see through and not say anything?

She's already left with you.

Fine, let me remind you once more.

In this vast world, there's only one Fu Xiao.

She will always be my woman.

No one else can covet her.

Not even Your Majesty.

You have your Fu Xiao, and I'll have my empire.

Is that okay?

I'm telling you. Take good care of her.

And you must assist me well.

I have no room for personal affection in my heart.

My heart is filled with the land and the people.

Your Majesty's words are to be treasured; I shall remember them well.

I'll take my leave.

Take care.

Take care, Your Majesty.

In this Imperial Palace, how much we have been through.

Suddenly leaving like this, I still feel reluctant.

Let the past take care of the past.

Now,

I just want to hold your hand and keep walking.

Let me take you to a place before we go.

Okay.

[Imperial City]

Dad. Mom. It's been over a decade.

I just came to see you, I'm sorry.

Over the years, I've been through a lot.

But I've also grown up; rest assured.

Come on.

That day I was terrified.

When daylight came, I couldn't find them anywhere.

Thankfully, you laid them to rest.

This purse...

was found where they were killed.

Uncle and Aunt, rest assured.

I will definitely take good care of Fu Xiao in the future.
