The Legend of Hao Lan

Episode 17

18

Royal Descendant of Qin, what are you doing here?

19

I am idling with nothing else to do. So I decided to weave a basket for my brushes and ink.

20

Your hands can be used to play the zither or write calligraphy.

21

But you shouldn't be doing manual labor such as this.

22

In this world, there is no such thing that should or should not be done.

23

If the need arises, just do it then.

24

I almost forgot to ask you. Why are you here?

25

I'm specially here to express my thanks to you.

26

You want to thank me?

27

You helped us resolve a very big problem.

28

You all?

29

If it wasn't for your help, Royal Descendant,

30

Lü Buwei would still not have been able to dispel His Majesty's suspicions till now.

31

Compared to Brother Lü, I'm just a useless person.

32

- I don't deserve any thanks from all of you.

- No!

33

Lü Buwei is intelligent and decisive. No one can deceive him.

34

Royal Descendant, you are sincere and as receptive as an echoing canyon (open-minded and modest), others cannot bear to deceive you.

35

Then, in your opinion, who is better between the two of us?

36

Lü Buwei knows what could not be done, but would still do it (using determination and willpower to take the less trodden path).

(One of the Classics of Confucianism; by Philosopher Mencius)

37

He dares to brave the criticism and censure of the world.

38

Royal Descendant, you have the ability and intelligence.

39

Yet you would never use that to harm others.

40

You know what could be done but would not do it (inaction is to conform to convention and letting things take its own course).

(One of the Classics of Confucianism; by Philosopher Mencius)

41

So naturally, you are much better.

42

But the two of you are very much alike. Don't you think so?

43

Go on. Escape.

44

Escape?

45

The King of Zhao is determined to get what he wants.

46

If you don't want to be his imperial concubine,

47

this is the only option to take.

48

If we leave, what would happen to you?

49

In the past, without the two of you, I was still fine. Wasn't I?

50

That can't be done. Zhao and Qin States are currently waging a war.

51

Royal Descendant, your life may be in danger at any time.

52

If the two of you were to stay behind, that would only end up as two more corpses.

53

Hesitancy may result in a disastrous outcome.

(The Records of the Grand Historian; by Sima Qian, the father of Chinese historiography)

54

Go on. Go look for Lü Buwei.

55

He will tell you what should be done. Go immediately.

56

Also, from now on, don't look for me anymore.

57

This...

58

Sister Haolan. Master is done with the preparations.

59

We will proceed as planned.

60

Haolan.

61

Greetings to Your Majesty.

62

There's no need for formality. I told you that many times.

63

I have to apologize to you.

64

I have been quite unwell. I'm afraid the conferment of title will have to be postponed.

65

Your Majesty. Before the official conferment of title, I have a request.

66

No... Why are you kneeling again?

67

What is it? Tell me quickly.

68

Being in Your Majesty's favor is really a blessing from heaven.

69

I should not have any more request.

70

But this is an important matter.

71

I would like to go home and visit my parents and family members.

72

I request Your Majesty's permission to leave the palace for a few days

73

to enjoy some time with my parents and at the same time, report to them about the conferment of title.

74

This is natural. Natural.

75

I will permit you to return to the Imperial Censor Manor for three days.

76

Thank you, Your Majesty.

77

I am in no hurry. No hurry.

78

The good days are in abundance.

79

No hurry. No hurry!

80

Ah Yue.

81

[Zoushi Court]

82

Have you thought clearly? Once you shot the arrow, you can't get it back (once you started something, there's no turning back).

83

I will not regret this move.

84

Since you have already made up your mind,

85

I just want to say this.

86

Haolan, please take good care of yourself during the journey.

87

Xiaochun.

88

Why are you still staying in the palace?

89

I've thought about it repeatedly.

90

If I could leave here one day, I'll start the biggest clinic in the world,

91

make lots of money and live freely and happily everyday.

92

A glass of good wine with two to three good friends.

93

Who cares who won the world and who descended to the netherworld!

94

This is really a pleasurable ideal.

95

It's just too bad that I'm in debt.

96

Before I clear my debt, I'll have to stay here.

97

In debt? Who do you owe?

98

Go on... Don't come back again.

99

Isn't it much better to be the world's number one commoner?

100

Access token.

101

Let them go.

102

[Imperial Sun Gate]

103

What are all of you doing?

104

Haolan? You are back!

105

What are you doing?

106

- What are you doing?

- Mother doesn't want to see all of you.

107

Why are you so stubborn?

108

All of you leave!

109

You are too stubborn!

110

I'm stubborn? Father is forgetful but I never will forget.

111

I will forever remember how my mother died.

112

A life for a life. I've already received the retribution I deserve.

113

A white-haired person sending off a black-haired person. (meaning an older person sending off a younger person, usually their child)

114

Is there anything that's worse than this?

115

Older Sister. It was all my fault.

116

If you are aware in the underworld, please forgive me.

117

Dear Heaven! It was all my fault.

118

Why did you punish Xiuyu, instead?

119

Whatever wrong there is, just come after me.

120

All the wrongs that Xiuyu have committed,

121

I'll repay them for the remainder of my life.

122

I just want to beg you not to let Xiuyu be reborn into such a family again,

123

where she'll have to undergo the same sufferings.

124

Haolan, your mother is the kindest woman in the world.

125

If she were still alive,

126

she would definitely not want to see you live your life with such deep-rooted hatred.

127

She is already in such a bad condition, but she still struggled to come here to seek forgiveness.

128

No matter how great her sin was, you should still forgive her.

129

Haolan, I am willing to yield the position of the first wife.

130

After a hundred years (after I die), I'll let your mother be buried next to your father.

131

You...

132

Let's immediately relocate your mother's tomb back to the Li family cemetery.

133

When she was alive, she was a member of the Li family.

134

After she died, she should be buried there.

135

Are you really willing to relocate my mother's tomb?

136

I'm not asking for your forgiveness.

137

I'm just trying to atone for my wrongdoings.

138

If what I said today has even half of a lie,

139

may the heavens strike me with thunder and let me suffer a horrible death.

140

Haolan, you should respect your mother's wish.

141

Your bedroom has been tidied up. Can you come back to stay?

142

No. I no longer have any relations with the Li family.

143

Now that Xiuyu is gone,

144

you are my only daughter.

145

It'll be my birthday the day after tomorrow.

146

You... Can you bear to let me celebrate my birthday all alone?

147

Father.

148

Please fulfill my wish for the last time.

149

Is that okay? I'm begging you.

150

[Madam Li's Tomb]

151

152

Lady-in-waiting Li. We'll send you back to the Imperial Censor Manor.

153

No. I'd like to walk around alone at my leisure.

154

Treasurer Lü.

155

I'll escort Lady-in-waiting Li back to the Imperial Censor Manor.

156

The few of you, go find a place and have some wine. All right?

157

This...

158

Are you all afraid that I will kidnap her? Go on...

159

In that case, we'll follow behind at a distance to protect Lady-in-waiting Li.

160

Do as you please then.

161

Do you not want to return to the Li family?

162

No. I don't want to.

163

Still, you have decided to return.

164

It's because of my mother's wish. I still have to respect it even though I disagree with it.

165

There's a temple fair tonight. Do you want to go and take a look?

166

But, what about them?

167

With money, you can do anything you want.

168

- There's money! Hurry! Pick the money up!

- Let's go!

169

- Move aside!

- Treasurer Lü...!

170

- Lady-in-waiting Li!

- Move aside!

171

Good!

172

Good!

173

- Good!

- Good!

174

- Good!

- One more!

175

Good!

176

Good!

177

Good!

178

Look at this pair of dolls.

179

Adorable?

180

Silly.

181

You men... always neglect such adorable things.

182

In eyes of men, are sparkling gold pieces and power the only things

183

that could excite all of you?

184

Good!

185

I thought you didn't like these?

186

Till now, I still don't think these dolls are adorable.

187

Then, why did you buy them?

188

You have been helping me all along.

189

But do you really like fame and fortune?

190

No. You don't like them.

191

Then I... Why can't I buy these dolls for you?

192

No matter what you want,

193

I'll bring them right in front of you. So long as I can make you smile.

194

What a wealthy and overbearing Treasurer Lü.

195

If I want the whole world, could you take it for me?

196

Do you want it?

197

I think you are the one who wants it.

198

I'll tell you one more time.

199

I'm entering the palace for myself. Not because of you.

200

Don't keep sticking gold pieces on your face (flattering oneself).

201

Though money is good, and no matter how great power is,

202

as long as I can hold your hand, all those will not be as important anymore.

203

After your father's birthday,

204

we will leave the Zhao State forever.

205

Where are we going?

206

It doesn't matter where we go as long as we are together.

207

What about your status and power?

208

I am wealth itself.

209

When you have me, what's there to fear about not having power and status in the future?

210

I have never seen such an arrogant person.

211

What about the Royal Descendant of Qin?

212

He is a rare talent. He will definitely have his own way of self-preservation.

213

Haolan. I have already started making the arrangements.

214

They will be completed within these few days. Wait for me.

215

Haolan.

216

Father.

217

Can we have a chat?

218

What do you want to say?

219

Even until today, you still won't forgive me.

220

A daughter would not talk about a father's wrong.

221

Even if you were really at fault, It is not up to me to judge.

222

The one you should gain forgiveness and understanding from is not me.

223

Yes. I know.

224

For my whole life, I've been busy pursuing fame and profit, and have been greedy for glory. I've made many mistakes.

225

I'm not qualified to beg for your forgiveness.

226

But, Haolan, to be honest, haven't I treated you well in the past?

227

Did I not love you?

228

The carnage brought about by hatred has already taken your mother and Xiuyu away.

229

Don't tell me we should let such a tragedy go on?

230

I lose one family member after the other.

231

Can you understand such a stabbing pain in the heart?

232

Father. The crux of the matter is not on me.

233

But it's also not entirely on her, either.

234

Do you know?

235

After we heard about the news of Xiuyu's death, I thought she would go crazy.

236

But she didn't. After a period of extreme grief, she suddenly became enlightened.

237

She doesn't resent you anymore. She also stopped shouting about taking revenge everyday.

238

Shall we let the enmity end here now?

239

Let everything return to tranquility.

240

The trees long to be still but the wind will never cease (the world will change even if you don't want it to).

(The Outer Commentary to the Book of Songs by Master Han Yin).

241

I hope she is truly regretful.

242

Yes. She is.

243

I give you my guarantee that she will never harm you again.

244

It's late. Father, go back early and get your rest.

245

Good work, Physician.

246

- Fang Cao, why are you doing this?

- Master, don't worry.

247

- I–

- Fang Cao, leave.

248

Yes.

249

Mother, you haven't fully recovered from your illness. Make sure you don't catch a chill.

250

Thanks for your concern.

251

Mother, rest well.

252

- Physician, please.

- Yes. Physician, please.

253

- How's her condition?

- Imperial Censor Li. Madam Li's pulse is steady and strong.

254

She is indeed gradually recovering well.

255

Tomorrow is my birthday banquet. I wonder if she will be able to attend.

256

It's fine for her to attend, but do remember this.

257

- She must not overwork herself.

- All right...

258

Physician. Thank you.

259

- All right. I'll take my leave.

- All right.

260

All right. Physician, please.

261

Escort Physician out of the manor.

262

Master. This is the guest list. It is ready. Please take a look.

263

All right.

264

Master.

265

I have a request.

266

Master, can you invite both my older brother and nephew to your birthday banquet?

267

This was originally meant as a small banquet within the family.

268

Your older brother is busy with his work. Let's not bother him.

269

Master, your birthday banquet is not a small matter.

270

- We are all family members. How can we not invite them?

- In that case...

271

Father. Since Mother is persistent. Why don't you go ahead and invite them?

272

All right then. Sure...

273

I'll send someone to invite them right now.

274

Master, thank you for your understanding.

275

All right.

276

Haolan. I've not fully recovered yet.

277

Regarding the birthday banquet for Master, I'll leave it all to you to manage.

278

Yes.

279

[Imperial Censor Manor]

280

- Congratulations...

- This way in, please.

281

- Congratulations.

- Congratulations.

282

- Uncle.

- Haoyang, my nephew.

283

Brother-in-law.

[ Zhao General, Gao Meng ]

284

Please.

285

The banquet will start soon.

286

Please join the banquet, Mother.

287

Hoalan, come sit with me for a bit.

288

There are lot of matters I need to attend to in the front hall.

289

No matter how busy, you can spare a few minutes.

290

Please go ahead.

291

That year, there was a grand party at the palace.

292

Young ladies were beautifully dressed and made up,

293

and there were many bouquets of flowers and silk decorations.

294

At the banquet party, it was the first time I met your father.

295

I spotted him right away in the crowd.

296

I only saw him.

297

When people get old,

298

sometimes it's hard to breathe.

299

Sucking a piece of ginseng helps.

300

At that time, the Li family's status was just average.

301

But I was determined to be with him.

302

My father and elder brother were furious.

303

But no one can convince me otherwise.

304

When the marriage proposal came to the Gao Residence,

305

this was the first time I realized the joy

306

of loving someone.

307

I thought that you always had this vicious look.

308

I was beautiful when I was young.

309

Maybe even much prettier than your mother.

310

But when one reaches the middle age,

311

looks get affected by personality.

312

Haolan, in your eyes,

313

have I always been malicious

314

and ugly?

315

To be frank with you,

316

I've always wanted to live peacefully with your mother.

317

Until one day, I happened to pass by her doorway.

318

I saw my husband

319

drawing her eyebrows.

320

My husband was holding a willow stick.

321

His brows were slightly frowning and his hands were slightly shaking.

322

Until he drew a nice long

323

eyebrow for her.

324

It was as beautiful as a faraway mountain.

325

I still remember how he looked then.

326

Nervous, loving and so adorable.

327

I discovered at that moment that

328

even though my new room was luxurious,

329

it was also very chilling.

330

Your mother lived in old quarters and used old stuff,

331

but her room was full of warmth.

332

I was envious. I was really very envious.

333

Slowly, this kind of envy

334

turned into hatred.

335

This hatred fermented into poison,

336

which continuously simmered in my heart.

337

Therefore... you hated my mother?

338

How can I not hate?

339

The past was right in front of my eyes.

340

It all became hatred.

341

Only hatred.

342

My mother was the first and rightful wife,

343

but she ended up living in the side hall.

344

She suffered for many years, but did not receive a good ending.

345

What is there to hate?

346

Therefore she was wrong.

347

I was wrong. Everyone was wrong.

348

It implicated the children. Living is worse than dying.

349

What is wrong with you?

350

It's nothing. I only wanted to tell you.

351

I don't hate you anymore.

352

Now, I really don't hate you anymore.

353

Xiuyu liked to run behind you since she was young.

354

She told me

355

that you were her role model.

356

She liked you.

357

She wanted to become like you desperately.

358

That's how you both fell in love with the same man.

359

To kill you, her heart suffered more than anyone else.

360

But that was her destiny, a nightmare.

361

She couldn't escape it.

362

Today, I will use my life

363

to compensate your mother.

364

But Haolan, you must also go keep Xiuyu company.

365

Mistress. Mistress!

366

Men!

367

Li Haolan killed someone! Men!

368

Li Haolan killed someone!

369

Eldest Miss killed someone! Men, come quick!

370

- Ah Min...

- My Lady...

371

- Ah Min!

- My Lady!

372

- What...

- How did this happen?

373

Father.

374

My Lady...

375

- My Lady, what happened?

- Ah Min...

376

Ah Min!

377

- Father, I will take a look.

- What happened? Why is she like this?

378

My Lady...

379

Uncle.

380

What is this?

381

They're... ginseng slices.

382

These are not just ginseng slices.

383

- There's also arsenic paste in there, right?

- Arsenic?

384

- Fang Cao, what happened?

- Fang Cao, what happened? You tell us!

385

I don't know.

386

I don't dare to speak up.

387

Do you not know or do you not dare to speak?

388

Speak!

389

It's Eldest Miss.

390

She was the only one in Madam's room when the incident happened.

391

I even reminded Madam that Elder Miss still hated her.

392

But Madam refused to listen.

393

Now, she has been killed by her!

394

Evil creature!

395

- How dare you kill your own mother?!

- What are you doing?!

396

What am I doing? She killed my sister.

397

I want her life in exchange. You, move away.

398

Brother-in-law, we have not clarified the matter yet.

399

I do not believe that Haolan is a killer.

400

Then, speak up, you! What happened?

401

- No...

- You, speak up!

402

- Speak up!

- Did you do it or not, Haolan?

403

I did not kill anyone.

404

But in this room, there was no one else except you.

405

If it wasn't you, who could it be?

406

She even killed her own mother. She's too cruel.

407

It's all because this girl is too vicious and sly, and disregards human relations.

408

This kind of woman should be cut into a thousand pieces!

409

Heaven and earth will not accept you for killing your own mother.

410

I want you to pay with your blood and be executed on the spot!

411

- Men!

- Yes.

412

- Tie her up!

- Yes.

413

- You, move away!

- Don't... Don't tie up my daughter.

414

What are you doing?

415

- Release my daughter!

- Father...

416

- You can't take my daughter away!

- Father!

417

Great General.

418

You are bullying a vulnerable woman.

419

In the future, when His Majesty and Her Highness find out about it,

420

would you be able to handle the charges?

421

Many pairs of eyes witnessed it.

422

They all know you are the murderer.

423

Even if I execute you right here, no one will complain.

424

We all know you are the killer!

425

Great General is correct. We all saw it with our own eyes.

426

Hurry! Tie her up!

427

For the murder of your mother, you shall be punished with a cart split!

428

Why are you laughing?

429

I laugh. I laugh at your idiocy.

430

Who actually saw me kill?

431

Speak up. Who saw it?

432

You?

433

You or you?

434

Just relying on a servant's specious words, you all already firmly believe that I'm guilty.

435

I dare to ask, who are you all?

436

What right do you all have to set up a court here?

437

Li Haolan. Everyone here today are all your elders.

438

They are important officials of the court. How dare you speak so unabashedly without caution?

439

General Gao is correct.

440

We need to seek justice for the Marchioness.

441

Correct, seek justice.

442

Perhaps what you want to seek today is not justice.

443

But it's to seek favors from this person.

444

All of you fear the powerful Gao family.

445

Whatever he says today is whatever it is.

446

There is actually no chance for me to defend myself!

447

Regardless of how you would defend yourself, the fact that you murdered someone is undeniable.

448

She committed suicide.

449

What did you say?

450

- Say it one more time.

- That's impossible!

451

- Suicide?

- She does not have any reasons to commit suicide.

452

Because she will die soon.

453

If she doesn't get revenge for Xiuyu now, there will be no other opportunity.

454

That is not true. Marchioness has fully recovered already.

455

She is full of nonsense.

456

Fully recovered?

457

Yes, the physician already said that.

458

That day, when I approached Gao Ming,

459

I deliberately smeared her wrist with some indigo extract.

460

Later, when the physician received my payment, his fingers were clean.

461

Tell me, why was that so?

462

Because the physician didn't assess Gao Ming's pulse.

463

It wasn't a healthy person's hand.

464

You hid someone else under the covers!

465

That's not it. That's not true.

466

You, speak up! Tell me the truth!

467

- It's not true.

- I also kept wondering afterwards.

468

Why did Gao Ming pretend not to be well but insisted on attending the birthday banquet?

469

Now, I finally understand.

470

She wants everyone to think that she has no reason to commit suicide.

471

Is that the truth?

472

I don't know.

473

I really don't know.

474

You don't know?

475

I really don't know.

476

The two of you secretly switched hands.

477

Do you dare say that wasn't to make me lower my guard?

478

Father, this maid's words are not coherent.

479

She clearly is hiding the truth.

480

We should harshly interrogate her.

481

The truth will be revealed in due course.

482

Fang Cao, you better speak up! If you won't speak up, I will carry out the family's way of punishment now!

483

I will beat you to death!

484

Tell me the truth!

485

Li Haolan. That is only your deduction.

486

To find out if she was really sick or not,

487

isn't the body right there?

488

Why don't we get a physician to check? We will know the truth then.

489

That is true. Men!

490

Are you going to speak up? If not, I will tie you up right now!

491

It's not that. I really don't know.

492

Fang Cao, even if you don't care about your own life anymore,

493

don't you care about your entire family's lives?

494

You should know that you will implicate your whole family, too.

495

Elder Miss, please spare me.

496

Since Second Miss passed away,

497

Madame got sicker. Even the physician said so.

498

She doesn't have much time left to live.

499

She said even if this cannot stick a death charge on you,

500

even if it's just to add a matricide charge,

501

forget about entering the palace and becoming a consort,

502

you will be harshly be censured by others your whole life.

503

What a pity.

504

You admitted to your guilt so easily.

505

Gao Ming really relied on the wrong person.

506

Even I feel quite disappointed in you.

507

Elder Miss, I beg you to spare me.

508

Great General.

509

Did you hear clearly?

510

Let's go.

511

- Father.

- Haolan.

512

- My daughter.

- Father.

513

[Lü Manor]

514

Scoundrel, you want to leave?

515

I will let you leave!

516

Yes, I want to leave.

517

For a woman, give up all the plans that you've worked hard for!

518

If I can give it up, I can also rebuild.

519

Just a matter of changing the location. Everything can start afresh.

520

Foolish! Ludicrous! Ignorant!

521

To leave this place and start all over again!

522

Do you think that is easy?

523

Father, you need to have confidence in me.

524

I do have confidence in you.

525

But I cannot tolerate you for abandoning everything for a woman!

526

Son, you are father's only one.

527

I hope you will honor our ancestors and gain fame all over the world.

528

Didn't you say that one day, you will have the world under your feet?

529

What is wrong with you now? A woman muddled your head?!

530

Say something... You, say something!

531

What a scoundrel!

532

I am sorry, Father.

533

If a man cannot even protect the woman he loves,

534

how can he even talk about conquering the world?

535

Since I've made a promise to her, I cannot renege.

536

Unfilial son. You are a scoundrel!

537

You, get out! Get out of this home forever!

538

You are not my son. Get out!

539

Get out! Get out of this home!

540

Get out! You, get lost!

541

Get out of here!

542

Get out!

543

Haolan! Haolan, please wait.

544

Father does not understand how you suspected that Gao Ming was faking her illness,

545

and had the idea to test her.

546

When mother was suffering, she could only cry and endure.

547

Finally, she ended up without any dignity.

548

But since that day when Mother died,

549

I already told myself to never put down my self-protection knife.

550

I came back this time to give her the opportunity to carry out her plan.

551

Haolan, now that you have gotten your revenge for your mother,

552

you should be at peace now.

553

Father...

554

Isn't the real chief culprit, you?

555

What are you saying?

556

As your daughter, I am very grateful that you protected me at the key moment.

557

But I will never understand you for having allowed my mother to end up in such a misfortune.

558

And letting Ms. Gao slip into a hopeless abyss.

559

Even Xiuyu and I were also bound by the same unbreakable rope that could end only in death.

560

The real culprit who destroyed our family relations is you.

561

Haolan! You...

562

Since you married my mother, you should have cared and protected her well.

563

Since you married Ms. Gao, you should have maintained a balance.

564

But you didn't do any of that! Your constant evasion

565

and compromise had led to the outcome today.

566

Up until today, every woman in this family,

567

suffered irreparable harm.

568

It is all your fault.

569

Tonight around 10 p.m., wait for me outside of the bamboo forest.

570

Father, what are you doing?

571

Lü Buwei, you listen to me carefully.

572

This person, fifteen years ago, when Wei State had the mudslide,

573

he carried you to escape.

574

He is your life saver.

575

This person, thirty years ago taught you to walk and speak.

576

He helped you pass your childhood and also helped you become the master of the house.

577

Also this person.

578

That time when we passed thru Chu State, we encountered robbers.

579

He suffered three knife wounds, almost died for you.

580

You are heavily indebted to all these people.

581

You want to leave this house now.

582

Shouldn't you say your farewell to them.

583

Also these are loyal servants to the Lü family.

584

They risked their lives to help you build your enterprise.

585

They lived for you and now, you are leaving.

586

They will have no choice but to death ahead.

587

All right.

588

If that is the case.

589

I will help you eliminate these obstacles.

590

Then you can leave peacefully.

591

Master, please spare my life.

592

Go at peace then.

593

Father, are you really going to force me like this?

594

I am not forcing you. You are forcing me.

595

If you walk out the door today,

596

I will execute all your royal servants.

597

All right.

598

These are all Lü family's capable talents.

599

These are the assets for Lü family's reestablishment.

600

If Father wants to kill them, go for it.

601

You shall see if I will even blink to that.

602

You stop right there.

603

Lü Buwei, before you go,

604

you should say your farewell to your father.

605

Don't block me.

606

Master.

607

Father, Father.

608

You not only eloped, but also wrongfully treated own sister and mother.

609

Do you have the word shame in this world?

610

We were childhood sweethearts.

611

Now, you've already forgotten your promises?

612

The person I like has always been Xiuyu

613

not you with the abominable character.

614

Lü Buwei, hope you will not disappoint me.

615

[Lü Manor]

616

- I want to see your master.

- You are?

617

You tell him I am Li Hoalan, I am here for an answer.

618

Please wait.

619

[Lü Manor]

620

[Lü Manor]

621

Are you looking for Lü Buwei?

622

Please allow him to come out.

623

I've never seen a shameless woman such as this.

624

Coming here on your own.

625

I have a date with Lü Buwei. I need an answer from him.

626

He already gave you a clear answer.

627

What other answer are you seeking?

628

I want to hear it directly from him.

629

Shameless. I can tell you myself.

630

Lü Buwei doesn't want you anymore.

631

He will never be with you.

632

Go back home. Don't be an embarrassment here.

633

Is that his answer?

634

Yes. It is his answer.

635

I will tell you. You are only an insignificant woman.

636

Any man with big ambitions will not, for the sake of merely a woman,

637

abandon a future that is readily within his grasp.

638

Close the door!

639

[Lü Manor]

640

You are here! We've been searching the entire Handan for you.

641

Go back with us. If you delay too much, we all will not be able to handle the consequence.
