[The Eternal Love 3]

[Episode 23]

You have to be more affectionate.

Speak clearly. Look her in the eyes.

- Okay. - Okay.

General Mo has arrived.

- She's here. - She's here.

Didn't you say we were competing in martial arts today?

Are we doing it here?

Feng Yang.

Feng Yang. Actually, Yun Xiu...

I'll give him a three-move advantage.

Come on.

Feng Yang.

Why are you being so coward?

Again.

One knee.

Feng Yang.

Will you take me as your husband?

You prepared so much to say,

why did you only say the last sentence?

I forgot everything once I saw Feng Yang.

Feng Yang.

Answer him.

This is just a proposal.

You don't have to announce it and hold a wedding right away.

It's just a ritual to tell each other your feelings.

I...

do.

♫ I can hear the rain outside, where did it land ♫

♫ I still remember the brilliance of fireworks ♫

♫ We part way at dusk, leaving the pieces behind ♫

To be proposed to is what every girl fantasizes about.

I do owe Tan'er a proposal.

♫ The ink dried, the crown cried ♫

Love indeed has strength.

Yun Xiu, Feng Yang.

May you be together forever.

♫ The sand is carried away by the wind ♫

♫ How many years were blown away, leaving us with grief ♫

Be together forever.

♫ Memory couldn't be wiped and you kept half of it ♫

Tan'er.

I'll always care for you,

love you, and stay with you until we're old and grey.

Cheng Cheng,

I am your love of two lifetimes.

You are my love of three lifetimes.

♫ How many years were blown away, leaving us with grief ♫

♫ Memory couldn't be wiped and you kept half of it ♫

♫ The blossoms can't bring me out of seclusion ♫

♫ The petals scatter and piece together what you love ♫

♫ One decision makes every difference ♫

♫ For you, who is willing to turn the world upside down ♫

Your Majesty.

You're going to grant Mo Feng Yang and Yun Xiu's wishes just like that?

Aren't we letting them off too easily?

Yun Xiu is of the Pugu clan,

which is quite prestigious in Xiyue.

Once the Mo family gains an ally like this,

they will become more arrogant.

If Mo Yuan Long makes a move, then Xiyue

will be implicated for sure.

This move can both lead the Mo family to become restless

and keep Xiyue in check.

How is Mo Lian Cheng doing?

Mo Lian Cheng has recovered.

But I cannot figure out

why he has the ability to rival the Soul-guarding Bead.

Before executing the grand scheme,

I need to know the answers to everything.

Yes, Your Majesty.

[Princess's Residence]

By the grace of heaven's will, Her Majesty hereby proclaims...

Secondary Prince Consort Mo Lian Cheng has continuously acted out of jealousy,

forced two main prince consorts out, disregarded three cardinal guides and five constant virtues,

and tainted the royal family's reputation.

He is ordered to the palace for morality training.

What?

Separating us again?

Yun Xiu and General Mo's feelings are mutual,

Mo Lian Cheng had nothing to do with that.

I'm merely in charge of announcing the decree.

Didn't Her Majesty agree?

Why is she making moves after the fact?

I humbly accept the decree.

I have something to say to Prince Consort.

I will wait quietly.

Cheng Cheng, what do we do?

I think Her Majesty must be suspicious of what happened at Altar of Souls.

Since Her Majesty already knows that you can rival the Soul-guarding Bead,

it means she has found out about your unusualness.

If your identity gets revealed,

then...

Don't worry,

I'll act accordingly.

I can use this opportunity to investigate

the other requirements, aside from the Soul-guarding Bead, we need to meet in order to go back.

You must be careful,

especially of that Xiao Zhen.

Prince Consort, it's time for you to leave.

Cheng Cheng.

I'm leaving.

[When the heart doesn't think about the good, evil enters into it]

I've etched what I've learned today into my memory.

The reason I am this strict with you

is that you're smart and clever,

different from the average man.

Compared to others, I am not different.

I just put in more time and effort into studying.

You know that I've always thought highly of you.

I've been missing the times you came to the palace

to recite poetry, paint, and drink with me,

before you got married.

Do you know

why I like having you by my side?

Forgive me, I do not.

Because you remind me a lot of the old friend I used to mention.

His eyes, clear and deep.

His nose bridge, tall and delicate.

Thin lips, beautifully outlined,

just like the gentle hills.

He always wore a set of white, cotton robes,

with a paper fan in his hand.

Poised, he wandered towards me,

like the clouds floating above the mountains,

and the flowing water during the night.

From Your Majesty's descriptions,

this gentleman sounds extraordinary indeed.

He must be from a family of scholars.

He is a doctor.

We met while he was on his way to pick up herbs.

[Xuanling Continent]

Miss. Miss.

The old friend Her Majesty speaks of

is extremely similar to Young Master Lian Cheng,

and she looks so much like Tan'er.

Could it be possible that she knows Qu Xiang Tan or…?

I'm tired.

Leave me.

Yes, Your Majesty.

His handwriting is definitely not

as elegant as Young Master Lian Cheng's.

But he clearly thought of something just now.

Please, Your Majesty.

"When the heart doesn't think about the good,

evil enters into it."

Very good.

No mistakes.

Since you already know it so well...

Prince Consort will be sent back tomorrow.

Thank you, Your Majesty.

Your Majesty, Official Chen has a report to make

and is waiting in Jingyi Pavillion.

You may go.

[Zhang] [Taiwei Wall]

[Zhang] [Taiwei Wall]

[Tianshi Wall]

Red Star of Demise.

Looks like the star image

is related to Her Majesty's conspiracy.

If so,

us going back not only requires the Soul-guarding Bead,

we'd also have to wait for the appearance of Red Star of Demise.

[Princess's Residence] Tan,

you've walked around for the entire day and haven't bought anything.

Let's go back to your chambers and rest.

No.

I can't stay in a room without Cheng Cheng,

not even for a second.

Tan.

What's this?

[M, A, R, R]

Why can't I recognize any of it?

[Y]

I know this one.

"Ya"? (T/N: "Y" looks like a character which pronounces "ya")

[M, E]

- Mountain? - Cheng Cheng. (T/N: "M" looks like the image of a mountain)

Cheng Cheng, you're back!

Oh my gosh.

♫ The night was spent in yearning ♫

♫ The flowers bloom in the morning ♫

♫ The reflection of beauty makes yearning unyielding ♫

♫ Quiet rain on the lonely hill ♫

Tan'er.

We have already gotten married three times,

but

I still owe you an official proposal.

Even though we've known each other for so long,

but when I see you,

my heart still pounds in my chest,

I still feel this overwhelming happiness,

and I still want to

marry you thousands of times over.

I do.

I do.

Thousands of times,

I do.

♫ I've discarded my wariness ♫

♫ All I want is to quietly tell you of my affection ♫

♫ For you, I'm willing to let go of all my glory and splendor ♫

♫ To wander the world with your hand in mine ♫

♫ From young and lively to old and grey, just like the average couple ♫

♫ I couldn't bear to step on the fallen blossoms ♫

♫ Our reunion and parting will sink into the earth ♫

♫ Let's keep the memories of this lifetime ♫

♫ Your most beautiful moments will forever remain in my heart ♫

I wanted to make it up to you with this proposal.

I don't want you to have any regrets.

As expected,

if one falls for the right person,

every day is Valentine's day.

Cheng Cheng,

I want to be with you forever.

I'm here.

Every hour, every minute.

It's always Valentine's day.

Tan'er.

Spending these few days in the palace, I may have discovered

another requirement we need to meet in order to go back to our original world.

Tell me.

The other day. I found an astronomy chart

of Red Star of Demise in the royal study.

Perhaps it has something to do with Her Majesty's conspiracy.

Or it has something to do with us going back to our original world.

It looks like, not only do we need the Soul-guarding Bead,

we also need to wait for the Red Star of Demise.

Why didn't I think of it before?

I've lived all these lifetimes in vain.

We need to calculate the exact date of the Red Star of Demise.

If we miss this opportunity, we may never be able to return to our original world.

But

we only have a fake Liu Qian Shui.

When you were in the palace,

did Her Majesty talk to you about the past?

No.

Every day, I'd recite the moral codes for men.

Look at you being all scared.

I know you're a good boy.

Should I tell Tan'er

that Her Majesty may be related to Qu Xiang Tan?

Never mind.

Before everything gets verified,

it's better not to let Tan'er misunderstand.

As expected, with my dear husband by my side, I can sleep well.

After you recovered your memories, you got taken away before we got to spend time together.

We should really take a break.

Say, should we go on a field trip? Or go horseback riding?

Or go shopping?

Didn't Tan'er say that only children have to make choices, adults will do them all?

Prince Consort and Princess are about to get up.

Why isn't breakfast ready yet?

Wait, why are only you three working?

They... they're still sleeping.

Still sleeping? Wake all of them up. Go to the kitchens and prepare breakfast.

There is no food left in the kitchens.

The servants who are in charge of groceries haven't gone grocery shopping in a while.

What? Seriously? Do you have a death wish?

- Let's go take a look. - It's not all their fault.

Aunty Zhang, the treasurer, went back to her hometown,

so no one was there to give them money, and of course, the shopping stopped.

How can this happen?

Princess.

Leave us.

Yes, Your Highness.

Yu Hao, what is happening?

Before, Eldest Young Master took care of all the housekeeping affairs.

After Young Master left, the house was left unattended.

The servants have become a little lazy.

When Eldest Brother was here, it was him who took care of all this.

What do we do now? We can't just leave everything in a mess.

You are the head of the household, so it should be you...

Don't look at me. I can't do it.

Don't look at me either, I don't...

I don't know much about the house affairs, so I don't think I can be in charge.

Your Highness.

Your Highness. I've finally found you.

Early this morning, Her Majesty sent all these

[Memorial] and said that starting today,

Your Highness will start reviewing memorials and assist Her Majesty in governmental affairs.

[Memorial] Memorial?

It seems Her Majesty wants to train you to govern the country.

As per traditions, you're about to be made Crown Princess.

Her Majesty must have ulterior motives.

When it rains, it pours.

The affairs in our residence are a mess and now I have to deal with this.

Looking at these is like looking at all the college entrance examination materials.

All my nightmares are coming back to me.

What are you laughing at? Being happy about other people's misfortunes?

When did I laugh? Back in the days, wasn't I the one taking care of all these trivial matters?

Reviewing memorials is just a daily task, very easy.

You can take care of it easily, but I was born dumb

and I have to worry about these trivial matters?

When did I say these are easy?

I just know how bothersome dealing with governmental affairs is.

It's a lot of trouble, and definitely not easy.

But seeing how smart you are, you'll be able to get a hold of it soon enough.

That's better.

Now we can't go on a trip, go horseback riding,

let alone go shopping.

Since you have nothing to do, how about you take care of all the house affairs?

How can I?

Mo Yan Chen can take care of the affairs and have everything running smoothly, why can't you?

We are different people. We have different strengths.

I can learn to deal with governmental affairs, why can't you learn to take care of house affairs?

When you were emperor, you had a proper excuse not to.

Now that you don't have to do anything,

how can you still avoid it?

I'm not doing it.

You just deal with governmental affairs,

I'll take care of the household affairs.

That's better.

- My chicken. - Young Master, are you alright?

Where is my chicken? Where did my chicken go?

- What's wrong with you? - I'm sorry, I'm sorry. Young Master. My bad, my bad.

Young Master, are you alright?

Young Master, today, we have to buy 10 kilograms of radish,

25 kilograms of brown rice, four kilograms of beef,

120 kilograms of green beans, and...

well...

- Isn't this beef? - Slaughtered on site.

This is pork. They're easy to differentiate. Beef is redder in color.

Then we'll buy pork.

I am from Yu County.

Just became a Jinshi. (T/N: The highest degree in the imperial examination)

A spare Xingren. (T/N: A governmental official position)

My first post was out of the county.

I was then posted to host the imperial examinations in Pei Prefecture.

Having "Mercedes-Benz" for four years. (T/N: It's "working away from home", she misunderstood)

"Mercedes-Benz"?

[Mercedes-Benz]

Young Master, these are the items we still have to buy today. [Ledger]

Eight more to go.

We need this many daily necessities. Let's keep going.

Young Master, the money sachet is empty, we don't have any more money.

Didn't I tell you to bring a fair amount? How did it run out so quickly?

Young Master, I did bring enough. I brought enough money.

But you didn't ask for the price, you didn't haggle either, and you let them keep the change,

and then, that was all.

Who knew there was so much to know about buying things?

"Working away from home for four years".

Hey.

- Wake up. - I did my homework, I really forgot to bring it this time.

You scared me. It's you?

I had a dream about my high school math teacher.

Scared me to death.

How was it going today?

Just reviewing memorials, easy. I've done the majority.

"Having 'Mercedes-Benz' for four years is not proper.

The luxurious lifestyle of households should not be encouraged."

What is all that?

Give it back.

Give it back.

I heard that you went grocery shopping yourself.

How did it feel running the house for the first time?

It's no big deal. Of course it went well.

Then what is this?

I think it was a mess, a huge mess, wasn't it?

You...

We're not done talking about the memorial.

If you submit these memorials to Her Majesty, things will go wrong.

You're looking down on me. Then you do it.

How can I...

We can give it a try.

But you have to help me with the house affairs.

How can you negotiate with me?

Fine, house affairs.

But there are more women than men in this residence.

If all guards have to deal with housekeeping affairs...

Since our work has been reversed, then according to the superiority principles,

every man and woman in the residence must have their work reversed.

Regarding household affairs, you need not discuss them with me, you can make the decisions by yourself.

Okay. It's settled, then.

Starting today, the Princess's Residence is about to push a major reform.

Could it be a residence-wide salary raise?

Some people must be getting dismissed.

Quiet.

I haven't announced anything yet,

why do you have so much to say? You talk too much.

Starting today, all the men and women in the residence will have their work reversed.

The women who were in charge of keeping guard will now

do laundry, cook, sew, clean, and etc.

The men who were originally in charge of the work mentioned

will now be guards, drivers, etc., taking over for the women.

This...

Wouldn't it be a huge mess?

We've never worked in the kitchen before.

Exactly.

And if other people find out, it will be so embarrassing.

Right.

Those who do not do as they're told will lose a month's salary.

You'll be dismissed.

You'll be dismissed.

You'll be dismissed.

Make way.

So weak.

Don't add so much water.

Add more flour.

- Do I look cool? - Yes.

That's enough.

I've been a guard for so many years.

I can definitely conquer this little dough ball.

Tan.

What happened to you?

Kneading dough made you resentful?

It's not me, it's the female guards.

They really can't work in the kitchens.

But I heard someone was quite into it.

Anyway, different people have different ambitions.

I think it's better if you let the female guards play with swords and sabers.

And those male servants, they keep hurting themselves practicing swordsmanship every day.

They're a real mess.

All right. I got it.

Leave work for today.

Okay.

It looks like making all the men and women switch doesn't work.

To achieve gender equality, "one-size fits all" isn't realistic.

What should we do?

You finished this much in one day?

This is only half.

He's in his element, going back to what he did before.

Good work today, work harder tomorrow.

By the way, how is your reform going?

Quite effective, of course.

Everything is in perfect order.

Princess.

Princess. Do you have a minute? The backyard...

Wait. Wait.

Wait.

Princess, do you have a minute?

Out.

So, no.

This is the "in perfect order" you were talking about?

Weren't you in the study the entire day?

Why did you come here?

I need to understand your work.

This way, I can help you.

You're just here to laugh at my expenses.

Letting men and women switch their job is indeed a groundbreaking initiative,

but we ignored one issue.

What issue?

Is the division of labor really based on gender?

No fundamental difference is made just by having the men and women switch.

A meaningful reform should be appointing people on their merit, not gender.

This is the true meaning of gender equality.

Her Majesty is asking Qu Tan'er to review memorials and assist her in governmental affairs.

What from I've heard, she's just reviewing memorials.

I don't think that Her Majesty gave her actual power.

Your Highness is the Commander of the Capital Guards.

You needn't be scared of Qu Tan'er.

It's difficult to fathom Her Majesty's thoughts.

Her Majesty has never shown who she favours out of the both of us.

You are Eldest Princess and with Princess Consort and the Mo family as your ally,

of course, you have the upper hand.

Before Crown Princess is announced, we must not show any weakness.

If Your Highness is willing to listen, I have a plan.

Speak.

[Princess's Residence]

Starting today, each person needs to submit a report on their skills, hobbies, and things they're good at.

After a comprehensive assessment, you will be reassigned.

You get to take half the credit for the residence being so orderly today.

Sure enough, someone who has been the emperor thinks about things critically and efficiently.

It's you who thought of the starting point, so the credit is all yours.

Then, should I help you with the governmental affairs after I get back?

You don't have to wait till you go back, the rest of the memorials are all yours.

I'm talking about the kind that involves being in a high position,

looking down on all the officials, and commenting on state affairs.

You don't want to help me with work at all, you just want my power and prestige.

Now I am Princess, do I need to take away your power and prestige?

Since it's not proper to participate in politics, you're allowed to take care of our child then.

Allowed?

Didn't you tell me that it's what I should do as a father?

Why do you have all these ready?

Just tell me, will you take care of him or not?

This... Of course I will.

But one isn't enough.

Who gave you the nerve to write down such treacherous things?
