[Go East]

[Episode 18]

[Sifang Pavilion]

Yuchi Hua.

Are you all right now?

Wait for me!

I need your help.

I can't help you.

Stay away from me.

Why are you so angry?

Who pissed you off?

You.

Me?

When did I piss you off?

You're so angry for no reason.

Remember to drink more hot water.

Get lost!

You are serious?

Yuan,

have you seen this whip?

Stay away from me a whip long from now on.

If you dare to get any closer,

I'll whip you.

Whip me?

Come on.

How did I offend you,

Yuchi Hua?

Tell me.

Yuchi Hua!

Yuchi Hua!

Where is the desk?

What was bound to happen has happened.

Ji,

it seems today is the day.

Shen!

Ji!

We are leaving today!

What should we do in the future, Ji?

I have my family to take care of.

What should I do?

Sirs.

What's the matter?

Retainer Wang told us to register at the West Court today.

So it's you guys.

New people always replace the old ones!

Alright, alright, stay here then.

We'll leave.

Where are we going?

Retainer Wang told us to leave,

so we're leaving.

Retainer Wang, thank you for your guidance during this time.

Take care.

Farewell.

Stop.

Who told you to leave?

We were just replacing your rug with a new one.

Isn't your desk still over there?

Well...

We don't have to go?

You said it yourselves

that the West Court is a family

and no one should be left out.

You two are the seniors in the West Court,

so make sure to guide the newcomers regularly.

Qing,

you guys can sit over here.

We'll start the meeting shortly.

Qing, you should join us too.

Okay.

Okay.

We don't have to go!

Come on. Sit down.

This way.

Let's change our seats.

I'm sure you've all heard that

the Five States Conference is about to be reopened.

The person who achieves the first merit will be rewarded with 50 taels of silver

and promoted to the position of Supervisory Sifang Envoy.

What is Sifang Envoy?

Senior Yuan Hanjing

was the youngest Sifang Envoy in Yong.

Will there really be 50 taels of silver?

Money is the most practical thing.

As for the so-called Supervisory Sifang Envoy,

I'm not interested.

Our West Court's task this time

is to facilitate Mobei and Yueying

in reopening the conference with us.

Yueying is small, with a sparse population,

and has a matriarchal society.

It borders Mobei

but has very different customs,

so they often look down on each other.

In the last conference, Mobei was rude to us.

I cannot tolerate that insult.

We will never ally with those barbaric Mobei people

again.

However,

we must be cautious of public sentiment.

Moreover,

we can use this opportunity

to ease our relationship with Mobei

and improve the situation for the Princess there.

The people of Mobei are fierce and nomadic,

moving with the water and grass.

They often clash with Yanle due to the desert encroaching on the grasslands.

The people harbor a deep resentment toward Yanle.

However, the Mobei Khan and the nobility have a complicated relationship

with Yanle, marked by both favor and grudge.

They are sometimes at war and sometimes at peace, making their relationship unpredictable.

What did you say?

Deputy Envoy Kang of Yanle wants to see me?

No.

Let's keep them waiting for now.

I believe Yong's people will be arriving soon.

Let's wait for the best offer.

You are wise.

Go back and thoroughly study these files,

including the royal family, annual population,

food supplies, and trade conditions.

We'll do it right away.

-Let's go. -Let's go.

To win the war,

we must always keep a close watch on the enemy's every move.

You mean Yanle?

I think we need to send someone to the Yanle Embassy

to keep an eye

on who they've been interacting with within the five states.

Leave this to me.

However, with so many states in the desert,

I still have trouble

distinguishing between them.

How about this? I'll go with you.

No need.

Stay as far away from me as possible.

What do you mean?

How did I offend you?

Did you see that?

Don't force it.

What do you mean by "force?"

Wait, what did I force?

That's baffling.

I'm going to find my Ah Shu.

Watch your step.

[Inebriation Restaurant]

Take care, sir.

Take care.

This set meal is quite special.

Shall we order one?

Bird's... side?

It's not "bird's side."

It's "In the sky, we wish to be two birds flying side by side."

This is a line from a love poem.

It's just two pigeons.

Are they trying to rob us?

This is a creative dish.

Who cares?

It's like putting lipstick on a pig.

Yuan Mo,

did you strike it rich or lose your mind?

Don't young ladies care about sense of ceremony the most?

This is

our first date after all.

First date?

We see each other many times every day.

What are you talking about?

Yuan Mo,

you've been acting weird since the naturalization ceremony.

So has Yuchi.

She was also off that day when she left.

Sir, Miss,

have you decided what to order?

Just two bowls of lamb soup with pepper flatbreads.

No way.

There's no lamb soup or pepper flatbreads.

Well, listen to me.

Bring me a pot of the finest Lingxi wine.

And your signature dish,

Bailong Stew, one serving.

Also, two lamb legs.

Oh,

and a serving of cherry cheese.

It must be sweet.

It's her favorite.

Okay.

You are trying to please a girl,

but you don't understand food.

You don't even know how to order.

Who are you?

Mind your own business.

Ah Shu, ignore him.

I'm just trying to give you a helpful tip.

[Duomi, Prince of Mobei]

Please come in.

Bailong Stew should be made with mandarin fish.

However, mandarin fish in this season is no longer fat,

so the dish's flavor

is naturally reduced.

The roast lamb legs are acceptable,

but they pair best with grape wine

from Yueying.

Yet you ordered Lingxi wine.

And the cherry cheese is the worst—

it's made from stale cherries

soaked in honey water.

It tastes nothing but sweet.

Enough.

We can order whatever we like.

It's none of your business.

But he did have a point.

These cherries are a bit stale.

When it comes to the world's finest cuisines,

I, Duomi, am qualified to say a few words.

You must be either from Yueying or Mobei, right?

So?

Just because I'm from Mobei,

I'm not qualified to critique food in Changle?

You can critique the food,

but not other people's choices.

How does that saying go?

One man's... another man's...

One man's meat is another man's poison.

Exactly.

Just like this cherry cheese—

everyone finds it too sweet,

but it was the first delicacy

I tasted in Changle City.

I order it every time I come.

After tasting garbage for a while,

I guess even that could start to seem sweet.

By the way,

that small diner on the corner may look unassuming,

but their cheese is a hundred times better.

What about this Lingxi wine?

You've never had the finest Lingxi wine,

yet you said it's not as good as grape wine.

Let me tell you,

there's no one in Changle City who knows more about wine than him.

I stand corrected.

I retract my comment about Lingxi wine.

May I know your name?

Would you like to join me one day

to appreciate good food

and have a good chat?

What are you doing?

My girl has nothing to talk about with you.

Your girl?

I'm not your maid anymore.

My name is Ah Shu.

Although I'm not with him,

I'm not that interested in food.

Thanks for the invitation,

but we're going to continue our meal.

I see.

Until we meet again.

Prince Duomi.

I apologize for not welcoming you properly.

[Duan, the Chef]

I'm Duan, the chef of Inebriation Restaurant.

Is today's food to your liking?

Inebriation Restaurant

is a top-tier long-established restaurant in Changle.

Yes.

Unfortunately, the old flavors haven't been preserved.

I won't recommend it this time.

Prince Duomi, I beg you.

If this continues,

the manager will certainly fire me.

If the taste is off, it's off.

My mouth never lies.

Prince Duomi!

Prince?

My mouth never lies.

Sir, Miss.

That Duo-something person just now

is so annoying.

He is Prince Duomi from Mobei.

He is the most famous

food critic in Changle City.

Now Duan is in trouble.

The manager will surely kick him out.

What did you say?

A critic for food?

Yes.

The young people in Changle City now

all like to choose their dining places

based on his recommendations.

But he wasn't wrong.

The quality of the dishes at your Inebriation Restaurant

has indeed been declining.

It's okay.

When you go back,

report this to your manager.

Got it?

What?

You actually admire him?

Yes.

Think about it.

Mobei is lacking in resources

and has few delicacies.

For the recommendations from a Mobei food critic

to be so highly regarded by all the young people in Changle City,

don't you think that's impressive?

Anyone can talk nonsense.

But this Prince Duomi...

This name sounds familiar.

I remember now.

His mother is Princess Yueying,

who married the old Khan of Mobei.

After the old Khan died,

his half-brother

took her as his wife.

Really?

So how would he address his brother

and face his mother?

No wonder he escaped to Changle City

to become a food critic.

I feel sorry for him.

But stay away from him.

[Sifang Pavilion]

What are you looking at?

Information about Mobei.

It's rare to see you working so hard.

You came at the right time.

Help me look up a prince

named…

named Duomi.

Prince Duomi?

Why are you looking him up?

You have no idea.

Last night,

Ah Shu and I were dining at Inebriation Restaurant,

and we ran into this guy.

Just because of his good looks,

he dared...

he dared to say "until we meet again"

to my Ah Shu.

The most critical part was the way he looked at Ah Shu.

What kind of look?

The...

The kind of look

that would make even you want to see him again.

Yuan Mo,

tell me the truth.

Who do you really like?

What do you mean?

Retainer Wang,

the carriage to the Mobei Embassy is ready.

You,

come with me.

Go by yourself.

I need to look up information.

Let's go to the Mobei Embassy,

and you can ask them if you have any questions.

Wait.

Let me turn around.

Come on.

[Yuluo Embassy]

Our Yuluo and Yanle have deep-seated enmity.

Now the Dragon Cavalry is stirring,

and Yanle covets domination of the oasis.

This matter concerns the very survival of Yuluo.

After forming an alliance,

if Yanle takes any action against Yuluo,

our Yong will certainly not stand idly by.

In that case,

our Yuluo will have no fear of Yanle.

However, the desert is vast,

so all states must unite to resist Yanle.

During the alliance,

can Yuluo temporarily set aside

its border disputes with Dongyuan and Xiyuan?

It was Dongyuan and Xiyuan

that repeatedly detained Yuluo's fishing boats,

acting unreasonably first.

[Mobei Embassy]

Yong wishes to form an alliance with Mobei,

but Yanle is also seeking the same alliance.

Our Khan

is truly troubled.

Yanle seeks to dominate the desert.

But Yong wants to treat all desert states

with mutual respect and equality,

ensuring the smooth flow of trade routes

so that the people can live and work in peace and prosperity.

It's just empty words.

You want the hawks to soar in the sky

to watch over the sheepfold for your Yong.

But how many sheep will our Mobei get in return?

The disputes between Yuluo and Dongyuan and Xiyuan

occur in these three locations.

I've investigated.

Here,

the residents on both sides are relatives by blood for generations.

They cross the border, ignoring the laws,

only to visit their family,

not to provoke intentionally.

If Yuluo could reach an agreement with the Xiyuan Envoy

to build a customs post and a bridge here,

the issue of illegal crossings could be resolved.

Now, look here.

The water conditions are complicated.

I don't think all of Yuluo's fishing boats

that crossed the border did it intentionally.

I can explain it to the Dongyuan Envoy on your behalf

so that past grievances can be settled.

And here.

Merchants from Yuluo and Xiyuan

both prefer shortcuts.

They bypass the designated trading posts

and land here for trade,

which leads to a mutual misunderstanding,

with each state thinking the other is smuggling.

In that case,

why not relocate the trading post here,

making it more convenient for both states?

The climate in Mobei has become increasingly harsh in recent years.

If Mobei allies with our Yong,

we will offer you a 15 percent discount

on the salt and iron you need the most each year.

Make it 25 percent.

What do you think?

This is already the bottom line for Yong.

But what you're offering,

Yanle can provide as well—

perhaps even more.

Retainer An, you are truly meticulous.

You've even thought of solutions for us.

Lord Li, Madam Li,

while Yuluo, Dongyuan, and Xiyuan are locked in a struggle,

Yanle will seize the opportunity to profit.

Why not let Yong act as the mediator,

so the three parties can sit down and talk things out,

and put past grievances to rest?

What do you think?

Good.

I heard that, back then, the old Khan

passed away coughing up blood

because Yanle pressured him relentlessly.

Now that you're planning to cooperate with your enemy,

aren't you afraid your family will despise you?

Why are you laughing?

I'm hungry.

I'm going to eat something.

What?

Lord Ao.

Think about it. A 15 percent discount.

[Endless Clouds]

I forgot to ask about Duomi.

That old fox is truly cunning.

Let me ask you,

when Yu told us to draw lots,

did he let you pick first?

How did you know?

You were tricked.

Among the five states, Yuluo holds a deep grudge against Yanle,

so it's the easiest to persuade.

Mobei, on the other hand, is the exact opposite.

They always side with whoever benefits them the most.

They're known for being tough to deal with.

I've never been afraid of any war.

You may not lose the war,

but the chance for the first merit is probably out of reach.

Lord Ao has a nickname—

the Greedy Wolf of Mobei.

There's a good chance that once we leave,

he'll run straight to the Yanle Embassy.

He's comparing offers between us and Yanle?

So that he can secure the best deal for Mobei.

Yuan Mo said

[The back door of the Yanle Embassy]

that among the five states in the desert,

if any one is colluding with Yanle in secret,

they'll definitely take the back door.

We've been watching for a long time.

They're coming. A carriage.

Get down! Get down!

Lord Ao?

Yuan Mo was actually right.

Hua,

what should we do

when Lord Ao comes out?

Didn't Yuan Mo give you any other instructions?

He just told us to keep watch

and not to act rashly.

Won't that be too easy for this guy?

Leave it to me.

Hua,

where are you going?

The name card was sent to you days ago.

Lord Ao, you have finally graced

our Yanle Embassy with your presence today.

It's truly an honor.

You flatter me.

I've been tied up with affairs at the embassy,

which caused a delay.

It seems you haven't left the embassy recently.

I know our Yanle has been a bit too eager lately.

Lord Ao, you've been deliberately keeping me waiting.

Not at all.

It's a misunderstanding.

It's a misunderstanding.

So, Lord Ao, why don't you just be straightforward?

What will it take for Mobei to abandon its alliance with Yong State?

Our Khan is well aware of Viceroy Long's plans

for that oasis.

If Yanle is willing to share that oasis,

that treasure of a land, with us,

Mobei will not ally with Yong State.

Sharing the oasis with you?

Lord Ao, you can barely hold on to your position,

yet you still dare to make such outrageous demands?

Deputy Envoy Kang, don't make baseless claims.

Please, speak clearly.

I heard that recently,

your Khan's beloved concubine gave birth to a son,

and you, Lord Ao, have become the Prince's uncle.

So what?

Don't forget,

there is more than one prince in Mobei.

There's still Duomi,

alive and well, living in Changle City.

The succession of the throne in Mobei follows a set order.

Duomi ranks ahead of the little prince.

If one day Duomi ascends to the throne,

will there still be a future for the little prince's lineage?

Will you still be able to sit here comfortably

as the Mobei Envoy?

But Lord Ao,

I have an idea.

Lord Ao,

as long as Mobei promises not to ally with Yong State,

Yanle will present you with a generous gift

when the time comes.

Don't think about the oasis.

A generous gift.

It's him!

Go!

It's him! It's him!

Lapdog! Traitor!

Lapdog!

Lapdog! Traitor!

Traitor! Lapdog!

Traitor!

Shut up!

What are you doing here?

I'm warning you.

I, the Mobei Envoy...

We're looking for the Mobei Envoy!

We petitioned at the Mobei Embassy for three days,

but you ignored us.

And today, you came to the Yanle Embassy?

Yanle has driven our Khan to his death.

It's Mobei's enemy.

You are colluding with the enemy!

Stop talking nonsense!

Stop talking nonsense!

If you don't clarify things today, don't even think about leaving!

Don't think about leaving!

Don't think about leaving!

Let go!

How dare you, a group of unruly people, offend an envoy!

You know you are an envoy?

You're colluding with Yanle!

If we don't teach him a lesson today,

there's no justice!

There's no justice!

Let go!

Let go!

You can't leave until you clarify things!

They are crazy!

They're all crazy!

Go!

Let's go!

The people of Mobei won't let you go!

Yuchi,

good job.

I can only say that Yanle really is hated in the desert.

It was Long Tuqi.

He was the one who turned Yanle into everyone's enemy.

I almost forgot

that you also escaped from Yanle.

You actually brought people to block Lord Ao?

He was just negotiating with Yong,

and one second later, he was colluding with Yanle.

I can't just accept it.

I...

This Lord Ao,

his face is thicker than a city wall.

He might even make a big deal out of this.

Bad news!

The Mobei Envoy, Lord Ao, he...

What happened to him?

It's said that he was attacked by Yanle spies.

These Yanle spies disguised themselves as Mobei refugees

and brutally beat Lord Ao.

-Beat? -But Lord Ao

remained unyielding,

insisting on cooperating with our Yong.

He has issued a stern statement to Yong,

demanding that we severely punish the Yanle spy

and provide Mobei with appropriate compensation

in future negotiations.

Bah!

Shameless!

The refugees just pulled him.

They didn't beat him.

This is the blood-stained clothing sent by Lord Ao.

Look at the blood.

Those Yanle people were too brutal.

Let me see.

Look.

Come.

Look.

It's just chicken blood and duck blood.

Ji,

did Lord Ao use the excuse

of needing to recover at home

to delay the alliance negotiations?

Yes, that's exactly what he said.

He's shutting the door and rejecting guests.

Did the people from Yanle agree to his condition,

so he wants to wait and see?

No, if this goes on,

the alliance will change.

What should we do?

There might be someone who can help.

But...

But what?

He's really annoying.

Is he more annoying than you?

How am I annoying?

I was just suspecting it before,

but now I'm sure.

You're targeting me.

Did I offend you or something?

Don't you know?

I...

Okay, okay.

Cut the crap.

Come on, let's go.

Let's go find him now.

Let's go.

She's so fierce.

Why is she doing that?

[Mobei Embassy]

My lord,

a famous physician from Sifang Pavilion

is here to treat you.

Send him away.

Yes.

Has Duomi been acting strange lately?

As usual,

he's going around enjoying himself.

Prince Duomi has no position or power.

I don't think he would threaten

the newly-born prince in any way.

Besides, he has been living in Changle City for years.

Everyone thinks it's a waste of time

to keep an eye on him.

Duomi's mother,

that bitch from Yueying,

is still the legitimate Khatun.

As long as they are alive,

the small prince won't be safe.

My lord,

do you think we should contact Yanle's people

and ask them to kill Duomi?

That depends on the attitude of Yong.

Did they agree to our price?

Not yet.

I don't have that much patience.

[Huaiyuan Hall]

Yuluo and its citizens wish to coexist.

We will fight against Yanle with Dongyuan and Xiyuan.

Great.

In that case,

I’ll wait for you here three days later

to sign the agreement.

Take it.

Don't miss anything.

What are you doing?

- Wait. - Wait.

No.

The East Court has it so good.

Why did our West Court get the misfortune

of dealing with the stubborn Mobei?

Seriously.

Fu, Qing.

-Ji. -Did you see Shen?

Isn't he on break?

Alright. Go back to work.

Okay.

How many days has it been already?

I've asked around.

The scholars have to submit an essay

to Director Bai every month.

The Literature Hall is announcing the results today.

Duomi will definitely come.

Fine.

You could meet him yourself.

Why are you dragging me along?

You don't want the credit?

The reward is 50 silver ingots.

Here he is.

I'm the Foreign Affairs retainer, Wang Kunwu of Sifang Pavilion.

I have something important to discuss with you, Your Highness.

His Highness is not in the carriage.

Then where is he?

There's no point asking.

This matter concerns Yueying and Mobei.

It will also affect His Highness' future and safety.

Please let us meet His Highness.

I can't help you.

His Highness has an appointment with a beauty right now.

A beauty?

What a frivolous man.

He's meeting Ms. Ah Shu.

Why did you ask me out?

Nothing special.

I just want to have a meal with you.

I asked the stall owner to reserve this table for me.

Ms. Ah Shu.

Have a seat.

Why did you suddenly invite me to dinner?

Since we parted last time,

I can't forget you.

Me?

Your eyes

are like the brightest stars in the night sky in the grassland.

And your smile

is like a clear stream under the sky.

Stop.

I admit that you're good at Mandarin.

But you don't need to write an essay to praise me.

I'm not that good.

You don't have to be so modest.

Today, please allow me to present a feast to you, the beauty.

This is fresh mutton from Mobei.

Thin slices are quickly cut from the freshly slaughtered lamb.

You can eat it

after lightly cooking it in a clear broth.

Don't you need spices to mask the odor?

Not at all.

Just dip it in leek flower sauce after it's cooked.

It'll be very delicious.

All right.

Try it.

I'll get you another piece.

No need.

I can do it myself.

You don't have to be so formal.

I just want to be friends with you.

All right, try it.

No, thanks.

She said

no need.

I'm sorry.

I only booked two seats today.

Prince Duomi.

We waited a long time for you at the Literature Hall.

So you came here instead.

You're even eating with our Ah Shu.

What's the meaning of this?

Ms. Ah Shu is not married yet.

What? You can treat her,

but I can't?

Stop eating.

What's so good about this?

I'll cook for you at home.

Wait.

Is this the guy who can force the Mobei Envy's hand?

Really? A foodie?

Unfortunately,

it's him.

Let's go.

Don't forget your business.

Sit down and talk.

Lend me a chair.

Have you heard of

our alliance with the Five States of the Great Desert?

Nothing can beat

the delicacies of the world.

I don't want to know anything else.

Your brother treats you as a threat.

He can't tolerate you anymore.

Yes.

You can use traveling as an excuse

to flee to Yong for refuge,

but have you ever thought about

your mother, who is far away in Mobei?

Are you just going to abandon her like this?

My mother is the Khatun of Mobei,

and she is protected by the Khan.

Don't scare me.

Besides,

what does the alliance of the various states of the Great Desert

have to do with us?

Have you heard

you have recently become an uncle?

Recently, the beloved concubine of Mobei's Khan

gave birth to a little prince.

The Khan loves him very much.

Then you and your mother

will become a thorn in the Khan's eyes.

Since I came to Yong,

I have let go of my obsession.

I don't care who becomes

the next Khan.

If Yong allies with Mobei,

you can lead a comfortable life here.

The Khan will also treat your mother well

for the sake of Yong.

But if Mobei allies with Yanle,

it means that Mobei insists on becoming enemies with Yong

and other desert states.

By then,

your presence in Yong will be considered as being exiled.

If you're exiled,

imagine what will happen to your mother.

Back then, it was Yanle that forced

the late Khan to pass away with regret.

If you can't avenge your father

or protect your mother,

what right do you have to live?

Do you still have an appetite?

You may have misunderstood.

I have no power or position.

I'm like a wanderer,

traveling in Yong.

I can’t help you.

Goodbye.

The place where the mother makes milk wine

is the home of a wanderer.

How do you know Mobei's herdsmen proverb?

Duomi.

Your mother is still alive.

How can you be a wanderer?

Your Highness, you're the nephew of the lord of Yueying

and the son of the late Khan of Mobei.

You're the royal bloodline of Mobei and Yueying.

With such status,

you need not belittle yourself.

Lord Ao.

Something happened.

Lord Ao?

Lord Ao.

Lord Ao!

What are you doing?

Can you let me sleep?

Prince Duomi is the one saying no to that.

Why don't you take a look?

Nice!

Bravo!

Come on! Come on!

Come on!

Nice! Come on!

Come on!

Come on.

Prince Duomi.

What are you doing?

When Mobei allies with Yong,

we will disperse.

No.

How can you threaten state affairs?

How can you delay state affairs?

By the way,

someone saw Lord Ao

sneak out from the back door of the Yanle Embassy.

Were you negotiating with Yanle?

Nonsense!

It's all rumors!

That's great.

Since Lord Ao didn't surrender to the enemy,

we won't urge you.

We will wait here

for you to reestablish the alliance with Yong.

You...

My lord.

Let's continue.

Bravo! Bravo!

Bravo! Bravo!

Keep it up.

Let's see how long they can continue.

Close the gate.

Ignore the matters outside.

Yes.

Bravo! Bravo!

Come on!

[Mobei Embassy]

Bravo! Bravo!

Bravo! Bravo!

My lord.

Judging from the situation,

they won't be leaving for a while.

You're right.

They're dancing so happily.

Isn't that too much?

Right?

Lord Ao.

Close it.

Lord Ao.

What's wrong with you two?

This is bad.

Speak.

Hurry, see it for yourself.

Are they partying outside the back door too?

No way.

I don't think so.

What's that smell?

My lord, this smell...

It smells like...

Like what?

Close it!

Close it!

What's going on?

The whole street's chamber pots

are outside blocking our door.

Get someone to clean it up!

That's right!

My lord, you have no idea.

Most chamber pot cleaners in Changle City

are refugees.

But now they...

They are all at the front door,

joining the strike with Prince Duomi.

Duomi, how dare you?

Duomi!

They're neither fighting nor wreaking havoc,

so we can't ask the Jingzhao Prefecture to arrest them.

But now,

other embassies are also affected

and urging us to solve it.

My lord,

The Yueying Envoy sent a letter saying that

Duomi is the son of Princess Yueying.

Therefore, Yueying is also on Duomi's side

and supports Mobei's alliance with Yong as soon as possible.

Yueying...

Those opportunists...

Tell... Tell Kang Yunhai

I want

his gift.

The Mobei Embassy is open!

The Mobei Embassy is open!

Retainer Wang.

Lord Ao has agreed to

Prince Duomi's request.

Tomorrow, he's bringing the Yueying Envoy

to the Sifang Pavilion tomorrow to discuss the alliance.

Duomi took extreme measures

and actually succeeded.

Exactly.

You should get ready.

Although Lord Ao agreed to return to negotiation,

he must be full of resentment.

He must be looking for a fight.

Don't worry. I'm here.

I didn't expect things to get better.

Even without the credit this time,

can we still make some money?

More or less.

What do you want to do with the money?

I just want to get a gold necklace

for my wife.

Also,

I want to hire a teacher for my son.

I don't know how many of them left in anger.

I'll get back to work.

What gift should I get?

Boots from the West Market,

bridle from the South Market.

And in the North Market...

[Yuchi's Mansion]

Yuchi Hua.

You again?

What are you doing?

Stop!

Stop!

I said stop!

If you don't stop, I'll whip you!

Yes.

Whip me.

Are you crazy?

I don't know what offended you,

but I know you have a grudge against me.

Whatever grudge you have,

just lash out at me.

Whip me.

Is something wrong with your brain?

It doesn't matter if there's something wrong with my brain,

what matters is that you can vent your anger.

Whip me.

Screw you!

Get lost as far as you can.

Close the door.

Yuchi Hua!

I gave you a chance!

You're the one who didn't cherish it!

Don't blame me anymore

and stop targetting me!

I won't leave unless you give me an answer today!

My Lady, you're back.

What's wrong?

It's...

Forget it.

I won't say it.

Tell me.

I will help you.

The trouble is at the door.

You can ask him.

What are you doing?

[Zhen'an Hall]

Duke Er?

Greetings, Duke Er.

Come on.

What?

Don't you want to marry my daughter?

Pick up the metal whip on the ground

and have a few rounds with me!

What?

How could I...

Pick it up!

I won't take it.

No, I can't. I...

You won't do it? I will!

No, no, no!

I’ll leave.

Brother, no, Duke Er.

I'll leave. I'll leave.

Kunwu.

Come and help me.

What happened to you?

I've spent all my energy

to make my way here.

Come, sit down.

Come.

I can't. If I sit, it'll crack open.

Then lie down on your stomach.

Come on, let me help you.

Slowly.

What happened to you?

Susu.

Ah Shu.

Remember.

Okay.

Here for Yuan Mo?

I recently developed a new rouge formula

and made some money.

I bought him some delicious food to improve his life.

But why are you so nice to him?

What's wrong?

Don't you know Yuan Mo and Yuchi Hua...

I spoke out of turn.

But you're right.

Yuan Mo is a scumbag.

I was just kidding.

Actually, Yuan Mo is not bad at all.

What happened between Yuan Mo and Yuchi?

Don't you know

Yuan Mo is pursuing Yuchi Hua?

What did you say?

Yuan Mo is pursuing Yuchi?

This matter has become a big deal.

Everyone in Sifang Pavilion knows it.
