[Go East]

[Episode 27]

Greetings, Vice Minister An. I'm Ah Shilan, Yanle's princess.

Ms. Ah Shilan.

If I'm not mistaken,

just two hours ago,

you were still a wanted criminal in our Yong State.

During the transfer process,

your carriage was ambushed, and you barely escaped.

How is it that

you've suddenly transformed

into Yanle's princess?

Vice Minister An,

what do you mean by that?

Ah Shilan is now

the recognized royal bloodline of our Yanle.

From the royal court

to the common people,

everyone is excited about the princess's appearance.

Yet you claim the princess is a criminal.

Where's your evidence?

The ambush on Ah Shilan's carriage

is still under investigation.

Yong State was transferring her as a suspect due to her questionable identity.

We also strongly suspect that

she's secretly colluding with The Faceless organization.

At this critical moment,

she escaped our custody and ended up working for you.

Deputy Envoy Kang,

if you say there's no connection between all this,

I'm afraid that's hard to believe.

First, you suspect the princess of conspiring with The Faceless,

and then you suspect my involvement as well.

Vice Minister An,

you can't make accusations based solely on speculation.

I'll say it again.

Where's your evidence?

Ms. Ah Shilan,

haven't you known Ah Shu for many years

and you're like sisters?

Why are you now siding with the villains?

If you're in a difficult situation,

or if you're being coerced,

you don't need to be afraid.

This is the Ministry of Rites of Yong State.

We will protect your safety.

You won't be harmed in any way.

You even came to our Sifang Pavilion seeking protection before.

Why have you gone back on your word now?

Wang,

I did indeed go to the Sifang Pavilion for protection.

But that day, Viceroy Long and I had a misunderstanding.

Now the misunderstanding has been cleared up.

He has promised to ensure my safety.

Retainer Wang,

did you hear that clearly?

Yong State need not concern itself with this matter anymore.

Vice Minister An,

I've come today to inform you of something.

Recently,

I've found

the long-lost Princess Ah Shilan in Changle.

I will escort her back to our homeland, Yanle, soon

to reunite with the people of Yanle.

I've come to inform you of this today

to ensure that Yong State won't use any excuse to obstruct us,

and to urge your state to issue a document as soon as possible

to recognize Yanle's

Princess Ah Shilan's legitimate identity and status.

Deputy Envoy Kang.

Many years ago, one of Yong's Sifang Envoy

died in the desert to save Yanle's princess,

and the princess went missing after that.

Given this, our Yong State should approach this matter cautiously

to ensure the Sifang Envoy's sacrifice wasn't in vain.

Before Ah Shilan's identity is confirmed,

with all due respect, Yong will not admit it.

Vice Minister An.

I'll give you five days.

If we don't receive

the official letter in reply from you in five days,

I will escort Princess Ah Shilan

back to Yanle at my discretion.

If there's any obstruction,

it will be considered a declaration of war!

Princess Ah Shilan,

please.

I'm so furious!

The fake has become real,

while the real has become fake.

Deputy Envoy Kang brought up the will of the Yanle people

and the attitudes of envoys from various states.

This really put the Ministry of Rites in a tough spot.

Why didn't you keep Deputy Envoy Kang here

to get an explanation from him?

Knowing that Ah Shilan is fake,

why would he acknowledge her as the princess?

Uncle Kang must have had no choice.

Ah Shilan was right there at the time.

If his attitude wasn't firm,

it would have aroused suspicion.

That's right.

Ah Shilan still doesn't know

that Deputy Envoy Kang was the Uncle who protected Ah Shu.

It would be dangerous to show any flaws in front of her.

The Man in White wouldn't let Deputy Envoy Kang off the hook.

So you're saying

this is all part of the Man in White's plan?

But what use does he have for a fake princess?

Do you remember what An Xiuyi said?

As long as they can keep Yanle in check,

command Yanle,

and extinguish the hope of all rebels,

then for them,

whether the princess is fake or real

makes no difference.

What Long Tuqi wants is

a puppet who can bear the princess title.

And this Ah Shilan

is the puppet they've carefully crafted.

I just don't understand.

Why is Ah Shilan working for the Man in White?

We grew up together.

How did she become one of The Faceless overnight?

Thank you, Your Highness.

-Slow down.
-Thank you, thank you so much.

Thank you, Your Highness.

Take this.

Thank you, Your Highness.

Take it.

Thank you, Your Highness.

Thank you, Your Highness.

-Careful.
-Thank you, Your Highness.

I have something to tell you.

Get down.

Who are you? Get down.

Let go of me.

Ah Shilan, I need to talk to you.

-Leave.
-Let go of me!

Release her.

Didn't you hear what I said?

Follow me.

Stay outside. Don't come in.

-Yes.
-Yes.

Ah Shilan.

The Man in White forced you to impersonate the princess, didn't he?

Ah Shu.

Stop lying to yourself.

I'm no longer the Ah Shilan I used to be.

I am one of The Faceless.

The Man in White is my master.

I willingly serve him.

Why?

To survive.

To take revenge.

Only he can help me take revenge.

Take revenge?

For whom?

Ah Shilan.

What exactly happened?

Do you really want to know?

Of course I do.

You're like a sister to me.

Do you remember the day you left the village?

Right after you left,

Long Tuqi's general, Mutu,

surrounded the village with the Dragon Cavalry.

They demanded to know your whereabouts.

But how could we have known?

In a fit of rage, Mutu went on a killing spree.

Kill!

Kill!

Hurry up, hurry up!

Mother! Mother!

Mother!

Remember,

no matter what happens, don't come out.

Go, quickly!

Hide well.

Quick, get inside!

Get inside, now!

The entire village...

113 people,

including my parents,

all died miserably under the blades of the Dragon Cavalry.

Only I survived.

All of this is because of you.

If you hadn't come to our village,

if you hadn't abandoned us to save yourself,

how would they have died?

How would I have become one of The Faceless?

How would I have ended up in this godforsaken place,

pretending to be a princess?

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry, Ah Shilan.

I didn't know so much happened after I left.

It's my fault everyone suffered.

I've let you down.

But...

But please, stop working for the Man in White.

Your vendetta is my vendetta.

I will definitely find a way to avenge everyone.

My master will naturally avenge me.

Don't be foolish.

Long Tuqi and the Man in White are in cahoots.

Long Tuqi killed your parents.

He killed everyone in the village.

What you're doing isn't revenge.

You're helping him instead.

You'll only hurt more people this way.

Have you ever cared about those who died?

Fatty.

Huo Ligu, Ah Linge,

my parents,

and all those villagers.

And those who died in the military rebellion back then.

Have you ever cared about them?

You're running away.

You're in Changle,

in the most prosperous city in the world,

living freely as a citizen of Yong!

You...

You abandoned your people to suffer.

Long Tuqi killed your parents.

So many people died because of you.

What have you done for your parents?

What have you done for your people?

You've done nothing.

What right do you have to criticize me?

[Yanle Embassy]

My Lord.

Do you know your fault?

I acknowledge my wrongdoing.

I shouldn't have met Ah Shu without permission.

Please punish me, My Lord.

Why did you do it?

There's hatred in my heart.

I had to let it out.

Very well.

Remember this hatred.

It will make you stronger.

It will also make The Faceless stronger.

I will heed your teachings, My Lord.

Here.

Try it quickly.

I just learned how to make it.

Still thinking about Ah Shilan, huh?

I went to see her today.

Yuan Mo.

Can you help me think of a way

to prove that I'm Yanle's princess?

Fatty.

Huo Ligu.

Ah Linge.

When I left,

they were only ten years old

when they...

If it weren't for me, they wouldn't have died.

That's why Ah Shilan hates me so much.

She chose to serve the Man in White

instead of listening to a word I said.

It's not because of you, Ah Shu.

You're also a victim of this tragedy.

Long Tuqi is the one who deserves to die a thousand deaths.

Yuan Mo,

Ah Shilan is the only survivor from the village now.

I can't watch her walk towards irredeemable ruin.

Only by proving that I am the true Yanle's princess

will Ah Shilan become a useless pawn.

Only this way can we have a chance

to rescue her from the Man in White.

Are you sure about this?

I've made up my mind.

If I didn't know what happened in Huangsha Village,

I could still have muddled through and kept running away.

But now,

if I pretend that nothing happened,

can I even call myself human?

Alright.

I'll help you.

Thank you.

I told you.

No matter what happens,

I'll face it with you.

Alright, stop crying.

Let's eat.

Try this soup I made.

I've been practicing for a long time.

The five-day deadline is approaching.

Apart from the Vanessa tattoo on Ah Shu's foot,

is there any other evidence

that can prove her identity?

Yuan Mo has requested a day off today.

He should be searching,

but there's no news yet.

Then we need to find evidence quickly.

Otherwise, Ah Shilan

will be taken back to Yanle by Kang Yunhai.

Have something to eat.

You've been thinking all day.

I'm not hungry yet.

You must eat.

You need energy to think.

It would be great if we could ask Uncle Kang.

But he's being watched by the Man in White now.

Going to him would expose his identity.

Ah Shu.

Think carefully again.

Besides the Vanessa tattoo,

did Deputy Envoy Kang mention

anything else about the princess's identity?

Step in the mud.

Step in the mud.

Step, step in the mud.

Step in the mud.

Step in the mud.

Mud.

Ah Shu.

Uncle.

Come, follow me.

Ah Shu.

I have told you many times.

You must never let anyone see your ankles.

Have you forgotten?

I haven't forgotten.

But they are my friends.

Even friends are not allowed.

This Vanessa tattoo is a totem that proves your identity.

Do you understand?

I understand.

Uncle Kang told me that

I have the proof of my identity on me.

But he was referring to the Vanessa tattoo.

What else could it be?

But this evidence can't prove that I'm the princess.

Exactly.

With just this one piece of evidence,

Ah Shilan can't sufficiently prove

that she is the real Yanle's princess either.

What have you thought of?

The Vanessa tattoo is your maternal clan's totem.

Many people must have seen it, right?

Yes, that's right.

That's it.

This means that the Vanessa tattoo

has been at risk of being misused from the beginning.

Deputy Envoy Kang must have known this.

So there must be other evidence on you.

Ah Shu,

can you carefully recall the circumstances

of that day again?

Tell me about it.

Don't miss any details.

That night,

everything was calm.

I was playing at home

when Uncle Kang suddenly arrived.

He grabbed my hand and brought me to the backyard.

Ah Shu.

I don't know who leaked the news,

but Mutu is searching for you everywhere with his men.

Take this with you.

Press this if you're in danger.

Press here.

Do you see it?

Yes.

Good.

Never let it leave your body.

Got it?

Got it.

Hold on to it.

Uncle.

Ah Shu.

The proof of your identity is with you.

Got it?

Got it.

Remember.

Don't ever come back.

Go.

Go!

I see.

Besides the Vanessa tattoo,

there's something else you've always had with you.

The mechanism box?

But how can it prove my identity?

There's something inside.

Silver needles.

That's right.

No, that's not it.

What's wrong?

The weight is off.

There should be something else inside.

You're right.

I've never noticed it before.

But there's no opening.

Can it be opened?

It's probably very difficult.

But don't worry,

I'll take care of it.

-No, no, no.
-Let me.

Stop.

Give me a chance. I'll try again.

What's there to try?

It must be inside.

Just smash it open.

No!

I'm sure I can open it!

-I can open it!
-Let go!

-Stop trying.
-Calm down.

Move!

-I can unlock it for sure! Don't smash it!
-Three, two, one.

Stop!

It's open.

I summoned you here today

because we received an official letter from Yanle.

Yong hereby officially confirms

the identity of Princess Ah Shilan

and grants permission for the Yanle Envoy

to choose a date to escort the princess back to Yanle.

Ah Shilan,

I hope that after you return to Yanle,

you will still keep the people of both states in mind

and strengthen the friendship between Yanle and Yong.

I'll not disappoint Vice Minister An.

Now, I, An Yuandao, Vice Minister of Yong's Ministry of Rites,

will deliver the official letter to the envoy of Yanle.

Don't do that!

Ah Shilan is not Yanle's princess!

Vice Minister An.

Fellow envoys.

I have found the evidence to prove

that the real Yanle's princess

is someone else.

I, Yanle's princess, Longshuang Yueshu,

pay my respect to you, Vice Minister An.

Ms. Ah Shu,

what exactly is going on here?

My name is Longshuang Yueshu.

I am the daughter of the 17th King of Yanle.

I was adopted and raised in a village since childhood.

This Ah Shilan is actually the daughter of a farmer from the same village.

She gained my trust

and secretly copied the mark on my foot.

Then, she stole my life story

and attempted to deceive Yong into recognizing her as Princess Yanle

so she could collaborate with Long Tuqi

and jointly rule Yanle.

You said Ah Shilan copied the mark on your foot.

If that's the case,

do you have the same mark on your foot?

She does!

She does, it's really there!

Vice Minister An, please judge fairly.

She copied my mark

and is now falsely accusing me.

I must have truly lived too long

to encounter such a situation.

Both sides have presented a Princess Yanle

and they both have the same royal mark.

Are we supposed to have them fight it out

to determine which one is real?

Good suggestion.

Silence.

Let me ask you,

what other evidence do you have

to prove your identity?

What?

This is my evidence.

I've never seen this before.

Wait.

This is the personal seal of the late King of Yanle.

The seal of the late King of Yanle?

Hasn't it already fallen into Long Tuqi's hands?

What you're referring to is the official seal of Yanle.

This one, however,

is my father's personal seal.

My mother once took me on a diplomatic mission to Yanle.

I had the chance to meet the late King of Yanle.

I can confirm that this is indeed his personal seal.

Vice Minister An.

In my father's work,

the "Sifang Annals", it is recorded that

when the late King of Yanle was still a prince,

he held multiple positions.

Thus, he combined all the seal inscriptions into one seal.

This resulted in this multi-faced seal.

After he ascended to the throne,

this multi-faced seal became his personal seal

and he always kept it with him,

never letting it out of his sight.

Ms. Ah Shu's possession of the late King of Yanle's personal seal

is sufficient proof

that she is indeed the real Princess Yanle.

Ah Shilan.

Do you have anything else to say?

Guards!

Yes, sir.

Take this woman who impersonated the princess into custody.

Hand her over to Jingzhao for interrogation.

Yes, sir.

Honorable envoys,

although today's ceremony did not proceed as planned,

we have at least witnessed together

the appearance of the real Princess Yanle.

Yong will surely choose another auspicious date

to officially submit the documents,

recognizing Longshuang Yueshu

as the real Princess Yanle.

Mr. Yu.

Yes.

Ms. Ah Shu,

please keep this safe.

No,

I mean, Princess Longshuang.

Yuan Mo

found evidence that Ah Shu is the princess.

It's truly a timely solution to our urgent problem.

Indeed.

We can finally give the envoys from the five states an answer now.

But Vice Minister An,

once Ah Shu's identity as a princess is revealed,

Long Tuqi won't let her off easily.

We need to come up with a plan

to deter the old scoundrel from harming the princess.

Vice Minister An,

Mr. Yu,

Princess Longshuang requests an audience.

-Princess Longshuang.
-Princess Longshuang.

Greetings, Vice Minister An and Mr. Yu.

Your Highness, there's no need for formalities.

Please, have a seat.

Please.

The situation is urgent.

I have an unreasonable request.

Well, please go ahead.

I want to request Yong

to grant a special pardon to Ah Shilan.

[Jingzhao Prefecture]

I want to talk to her alone.

You may leave now.

Yes.

This is your pardon.

Yong has accepted my request.

As long as you reveal the identity of the Man in White

and provide clues about The Faceless,

Yong will pardon your crimes.

I knew you would come.

You think by doing this,

I would be grateful to you?

I don't need your gratitude.

I just want to save you.

I can't bear to see you so misguided anymore.

Ah Shilan.

Just reveal the identity of the Man in White,

and we can pretend none of this ever happened.

We can go back to how things were before, okay?

Like before?

You can be like before...

Because you never saw

how those people died.

I can't.

Whenever I close my eyes,

I can see the Dragon Cavalry,

the dead villagers,

and my parents.

The old Ah Shilan is dead.

The current Ah Shilan

will never betray her master.

Ah Shilan.

Is it worth it for the Man in White?

My Lord promised me

he would definitely avenge me.

I trust him.

You can't trust him.

Why can't I trust him?

What right do you have to lecture me?

Are you worthy?

Should I trust you instead?

You're not doing these

for me.

You just want to ease your conscience a bit.

Isn't that right?

Ah Shilan, what are you doing?

Ah Shu.

I've been waiting for you to come.

Let me tell you,

even if I, Ah Shilan, die,

I will never forgive you!

Ah Shilan!

Why did you do that?

I've long lost the will to live.

I... I miss my father so much.

I miss my mother so much.

Ah Shilan, why are you doing this?

Heaven... bless Princess Longshuang.

Why did you do that?

I got the pardon!

I came to save you!

Why did you do that?

Step in the mud.

Step in the mud.

Step, step in the mud.

Step in the mud.

Step in the mud.

Step, step in the mud.

Step, step in the mud.

Why aren't you playing?

I... I don't like stepping in mud.

Me neither. It's so dirty.

Let's play together from now on.

Okay. My name is Ah Shu.

And you?

My name is Ah Shilan.

Look.

What's

this?

It's a bamboo dragonfly.

I'll teach you how to play with it.

Sure!

Be it decreed:

The late King of Yanle swore an oath of alliance with Yong,

to forge an everlasting friendship between our states.

Princess Yueshu, though young, is gentle and virtuous,

growing to embody grace and nobility.

Therefore, let it be known to all under heaven:

We hereby bestow upon her the title of Princess Longshuang,

with an estate of one thousand households,

and grant her a mansion in Changle.

Let the relevant authorities carry out this decree.

[Sifang Pavilion]

Where can we go to reason with them?

To think that Ah Shu is actually Princess Yanle.

I even sold fake rouge with her.

What kind of friendship is this?

We even helped her move house.

Logically speaking,

shouldn't we be able to ask for some kind of reward?

If Yuan Mo and Ah Shu have a falling out in the future,

it could become a major diplomatic issue, right?

Don't you think so?

Retainer Wang.

Retainer Wang.

What Ah Shu?

She's called Princess Longshuang.

Yes.

You boys.

From now on, mind your manners when you see the princess.

If anyone dares to be disrespectful again,

I'll punish you.

Yes.

Where's Yuan Mo?

Yuan Mo and Ah-

Princess Longshuang went to pay respects to Ah Shilan.

This tree is revered as a sacred tree by the people of Yanle in Yong.

The land of Yanle State is covered with yellow sand.

They have great reverence for plants and trees.

After a loved one passes away,

the people of Yanle will come to this sacred tree to pray for blessings.

Fatty,

Huo Ligu,

rest in peace.

Ah Shilan,

the things you left unfinished,

I will complete them for you.
