[Go East]

[Episode 28]

Sister.

Hey,

you're taking everything?

You might as well pack me up too.

Princess.

Do you want to take this as well?

Stop!

You won't even spare a little snake?

At least leave Poppet behind.

If you take everything, what am I supposed to do?

What will I do if I miss you?

Alright, alright.

You can keep Poppet.

Pack up those things over there.

Okay.

Oh, Poppet.

They're so cruel.

From now on, it's just you and me.

Listen to yourself.

It's not like I'm never coming back.

I'm just temporarily staying at the Princess's Mansion.

How can it be temporary, Princess?

Now that you've been bestowed the title,

if you don't live in the Princess's Mansion,

are you going to stay with this outsider man,

crammed in this rundown house?

What?

You're calling me an outsider?

Did you hear that?

This newcomer called me an outsider.

I'm wholeheartedly looking out for our Princess.

Why can't I call you that?

Sharp-tongued, aren't you?

Look at your little sister, will you?

Learn from your little sister. She's so quiet.

Big sister.

Hello, Big Sister.

Alright.

I know you'll miss me.

I'll miss you too.

But I've just been bestowed the title

and I have to receive envoys from the various states.

It's indeed inconvenient to stay here.

Today it's an audience, tomorrow it's a congratulations.

The day after that, they'll find some other excuse.

Will you ever be able to come back?

Don't worry.

I promise you.

After this period,

I'll move back.

I still want to move into our new home with you.

Really?

Then you better keep your word.

They're so annoying.

I guarantee you.

Even though I've become a princess,

nothing will change,

especially what's between us.

Okay.

Then let's hug one more time.

Back off.

Back off, back off, back off.

Back off, back off.

Back off?

Where am I supposed to back off to?

My sister is a woman of few words.

Mr. Yuan, you just have to get used to it.

If anyone should back off, it's you two, understand?

This is my house.

Listen up.

I want to spend some time alone with the Princess now.

You two, back off, back off, back off.

What are you doing, brandishing weapons like that?

Your big sister is better.

You should learn from her.

At least she is a bit gentler.

I'm the little sister.

Deputy Envoy Kang ordered us

to ensure the Princess's safety here.

We absolutely won't allow anyone with ill intentions

to get close to the princess.

Mr. Yuan.

Don't blame me.

I have ill intentions?

Wait, Ah Shu.

She says I have ill intentions.

Am I really someone with ill intentions?

Aren't you?

I... I...

This is my home.

Where are you taking me?

Ouch, be gentle!

My sister is being polite.

Otherwise, she would have sent you to see a doctor already.

Can you dismiss these two?

There are plenty of good maids in Changle City.

Keep packing.

[Princess's Mansion]

Princess.

Princess.

You may leave now.

-Yes.
-Yes.

The Deputy Envoy from Yueying seeks an audience.

Let them enter.

The Deputy Envoy from Yueying pays respects to Princess Longshuang.

Rise.

Thank you, Princess.

I humbly represent the Yueying Embassy

to congratulate Princess Longshuang on your investiture.

We have prepared a modest gift.

Please accept it.

The Yueying Envoy is too kind.

The state of Yueying...

In the sky...

shines bright as the moon.

Illuminates the earth...

All things cast shadows.

Between heaven and earth, nothing...

Nothing...

cannot be penetrated.

I have long admired your realm.

Please convey to the Yueying Envoy

that I wish to forge a friendly bond with your state.

May it endure for ages to come.

I shall certainly relay

your words.

Princess, you are very busy.

I fear I have imposed too much.

I humbly request to take my leave.

I regret I cannot see you out.

The Dongyuan Envoy seeks an audience.

Enter.

The Deputy Envoy of Dongyuan seeks an audience.

Enter.

The Xiyuan Envoy seeks an audience.

Enter.

The Deputy Envoy of Xiyuan seeks an audience.

Rise.

The Yuluo Envoy seeks an audience.

The Deputy Envoy of Yuluo seeks an audience.

The Mobei Envoy seeks an audience.

The Deputy Envoy of Mobei seeks an audience.

Enter.

Rise.

Enter.

Rise.

Rise.

Rise.

Rise.

Rise.

Your Highness.

All the envoys from various states have been sent off.

Isn't the princess supposed to have a spoiled life?

Why is this more exhausting than being a commoner?

It's only the first day and you already feel tired.

There are still many days ahead.

What?

Do I have to do this every day from now on?

As long as there are outsiders present,

you must mind your manners.

During the day,

you must not sit like this.

Tell them I'm sick.

I won't see

any outsiders.

You can't hide forever, Your Highness.

Are you saying you will never go out again?

As long as you're outside,

whether you receive guests or not,

you must mind your manners.

After all, there are so many eyes watching.

If you're not careful, rumors will spread in town

about the princess being discourteous and ill-mannered.

Indeed.

I'm not a princess.

You've got the wrong person.

No, no.

Your Highness.

I painted the red butterfly.

I also had someone carve the golden seal.

Let me go back.

Your Highness.

Your Highness.

You can't back out now.

That's right.

It's already been announced to the world.

Please bear with it.

You'll get used to it.

The princess has had a tiring day.

You two, take good care of her.

We'll take our leave now.

Farewell.

Let me in.

No, let me in.

It's not allowed.

Yuan Mo?

No, let me in.

[Princess's Mansion]

Let me in.

Not allowed.

The princess said no outsiders are allowed.

I'm not an outsider.

I'm an insider.

No, that's not right.

I'm the princess's personal guard.

Personal guard!

Not allowed.

The princess's personal guard, you hear me?

San Niang is the princess's personal guard.

Our princess said no, so it's a no.

What's wrong with you?

Sister.

What are you doing?

San Niang.

You're so scary.

Don't be rude.

Ah Shu.

Ah Shu, you're finally here.

Quick, let me in.

Make them leave.

The princess can take our lives,

but she can never let us leave our posts.

Otherwise, we won't be able to answer to Deputy Envoy Kang.

Have some decency, will you?

Ah Shu and I are in love with each other.

Do you know what it means

for seconds to drag on like years when you're apart?

Being in love is fine,

but for a meeting, you need a formal visitation card.

If it's about marriage,

then both parties need to exchange formal documents.

There are no small matters in foreign affairs.

If you casually break these rules,

my sister and I will have to kill ourselves right here

to atone for our failure.

Hey.

Alright, alright. There's no need for that.

Put the knife down.

You two...

are amazing.

Princess.

We'll meet again.

Ah Shu!

Ah Shu!

Yuan Mo!

Come in quickly.

Be careful.

Ah Shu.

It's so hard to see you.

I'm sorry.

Thank you for your efforts.

It's nothing.

As long as I can see you,

all the effort is worth it.

How was it?

You met so many envoys in a row today.

How did it feel?

Don't even mention it.

I sat all day.

I wasn't allowed to smile or move.

I had to expressionlessly say

a bunch of things that I didn't even understand.

Thankfully, Shen was there.

Otherwise, I would've become a laughingstock.

I knew it.

I had Shen prepare in advance

to give you hints.

Ah Shu.

I missed you so much.

I missed you too.

Princess.

Deputy Envoy Kang requests an audience.

K-Kang... I-I-I…

I'll hide.

No need.

No need.

Princess.

Uncle Kang.

Deputy Envoy Kang.

It seems no wall is high enough to keep you out.

Don't just stand here.

Please, come inside.

After you, Princess.

Please have a seat, Deputy Envoy Kang.

Sit, sit, sit.

Deputy Envoy Kang,

have some tea.

Uncle Kang.

The Man in White didn't catch you last time.

He won't let you off easily.

You coming here to see me

might arouse his suspicion.

It doesn't matter.

As the envoy,

there's nothing wrong with caring about the princess.

If I deliberately avoid contact,

it will be more suspicious.

But it's night now.

Did something urgent happen?

Indeed.

I just received news that

the puppet king supported by Long Tuqi is seriously ill.

Now, Long Tuqi is the regent king.

He's only one step away from usurping the throne.

Actually,

this was to be expected.

That puppet king is from a distant branch of the royal family.

He has no talent, no virtue, and no heir.

It's natural for Long Tuqi to discard him like an old shoe.

I'm just worried he might harm the Princess next.

Dream on!

I'll report to Mr. Yu tomorrow.

We must strengthen the security at the Princess's Mansion.

I'll have Yuchi Hua come over

to keep you company.

Uncle Kang.

The Man in White is cunning and paranoid.

Please be very careful.

Don't worry, Princess.

I've already made Ma Zhiwen the scapegoat.

No wonder.

I was wondering why he hasn't been around these days.

So, Deputy Envoy Kang,

do you know the true identity of the Man in White?

The Man in White

never shows his true face.

Moreover, Long Tuqi trusts him completely,

bypassing me to entrust him with full authority on many matters.

So I can only respond to his moves as they come.

If I'm not mistaken,

Duomi's rescue was also your clever work, wasn't it?

And that day when San Niang and Si Niang

followed Ah Shu into the shoe shop,

that was also your arrangement, wasn't it?

That's correct.

I instructed San Niang to secretly protect Duomi

to prevent him from falling victim to the Man in White.

San Niang knocked out Duan underwater,

then dragged both of them ashore,

and switched their identities.

Previously,

the one who delivered intelligence to Duomi on that rainy night

was also San Niang.

You've done so much for me.

Deputy Envoy Kang,

I was unaware of your true identity before.

I apologize for any disrespect.

Please accept my bow.

No need for formalities.

Actually, to avoid suspicion,

I've caused quite a bit of trouble for Sifang Pavilion too.

Then, we're equal here.

Come, have some tea.

I didn't discuss it with you in advance

and revealed my identity

on my own.

I'm sorry.

I went against your wishes.

That's not true, Princess.

Regarding this matter,

it was I who failed to consider things thoroughly.

Before,

I hoped you could be free forever,

so I actively cooperated with Ah Shilan

in the plan to impersonate the Princess.

But when I saw you

bravely step forward to take responsibility,

I felt deeply gratified.

My little Princess has grown up.

You know,

we haven't seen each other for ten years.

When I saw you outside the Yanle Embassy,

killing Long Ge with your bare hands,

I knew you must have your own difficulties and position.

You must have also hoped for me to live safely in Changle.

Because of your presence in Changle City,

I was no longer lonely.

Although we couldn't meet due to our identities,

I felt much more at ease.

Now, it's all good.

Yong State has officially recognized you as a princess.

From now on, you can

stay in Changle legitimately

and be under the protection of Yong State.

This is actually the best possible outcome.

That's right.

This is the best.

Ah Shu doesn't have to return to Yanle.

She can stay in Yong forever.

To be honest,

I've already bought a house.

What did you say?

You want the Princess to live in your private residence in the future?

It's not entirely my private residence.

It's ours.

Without Ah Shu,

buying this house

would have no meaning at all.

Yuan Mo,

besides buying a house,

what other plans do you have for the future?

I... I...

I can't say

that I've even found a school for the children, can I?

I... I have...

Well,

Uncle Kang, please have some tea first.

I'll explain to you slowly.

If the Man in White intends to harm the Princess,

how will you protect her?

Then I...

Do you have any ambition to improve yourself?

I... I... I...

When can you be officially appointed as Supervisory Sifang Envoy?

I should...

How do you plan to assist the Princess?

Perhaps...

And...

Uncle Kang,

I know you don't have many chances to meet,

but you don't have to ask so many questions at once.

You can rest assured about us.

Don't you know me well enough?

I never misjudge.

I've watched you grow up since you were little.

Of course I know you well.

But I don't know him.

Yuan Mo, listen to me.

Your father represented Yong State in his travels,

spreading kindness and earning respect.

But in my opinion, you're still far from that.

You need to keep working hard.

Yes.

I, Yuan Mo,

will remember

your wise words.

By the way, Princess,

are you satisfied with San Niang and Si Niang?

They...

They are my trusted confidants.

They are quick and careful in their work.

They're absolutely trustworthy.

If you need anything in the future,

you can ask them to relay the message to the Yanle Embassy.

Uncle Kang, you've arranged everything so thoughtfully.

I am deeply grateful.

It's just that they...

They're really too much, you know?

What did you say?

They're too serious.

Too responsible.

Really.

Not even a fly can get into

this huge Princess's Mansion.

Then how did you get in?

I...

Have some tea.

The tea is overflowing.

You're so clumsy,

you rascal.

My thoughts are all in the tea.

Princess,

those two can indeed be overly meticulous at times.

I'll remind them about it.

That'll be great, Deputy Envoy Kang.

You...

I'll be keeping an eye on you too.

Young man,

you better behave yourself from now on.

Take good care of the Princess.

Yes, sir.

Princess,

it's getting late.

People might get suspicious.

I shall take my leave now.

Leaving so soon?

Be careful on your way back.

What's wrong?

Am I really that bad?

Of course not.

You are the only one in the world

who I find interesting.

I'm very happy when I'm with you,

and very content too.

I'm that amazing?

Of course.

Alright.

Then I'll stay here tonight.

No, no.

It's only the second day. I can't let a man stay over.

What if we're discovered?

Didn't Deputy Envoy Kang say

he would instruct them?

No.

I still have to meet with envoys tomorrow.

Let me tell you.

When I climbed over the wall just now,

I pulled a muscle in my back.

It really hurts now.

I've been enduring it for a while.

I haven't said anything about it.

I can't take it anymore. I need to lie down.

Why didn't it hurt earlier?

I was holding it in earlier.

I can't bear it any longer.

Yuan Mo, this won't do. Get up.

It's fine.

I told you to get up.

Deputy Envoy Kang has already drunk my tea.

He won't do anything about it.

[Changle City]

Bathtub.

Put it on the left side as you enter.

Be careful on the steps.

Don't chip it.

Where should I put this?

Put the chair over there.

Okay.

Put it in that pavilion.

Take this inside too.

Hurry up.

Be careful, don't bump into anything.

Handle it gently.

Handle it gently.

Put the parasol here, right here.

Yes, saw this off.

Make sure to smooth out that side.

Will do.

What are you looking at?

I feel like something's still missing.

Still missing something?

We've got the rattan chair and the parasol,

and all these flowers and plants.

It's lacking here.

Here?

Oh, Poppet,

what do you think Ah Shu is doing now?

Is she also stargazing like us?

She's been so busy lately.

She's probably gone to bed already.

What brings you here?

I knew you'd be bored alone,

so I came to drink with you.

You're the one who's bored,

looking for company, aren't you?

You've done a nice job with this courtyard.

It's much better than the previous one.

Drink up.

Thanks.

Wang Kunwu,

you're poisoning me.

It's liquor from the frontier.

Three wen for a large jug.

This is too strong.

Just like you.

Sit.

I didn't expect Deputy Envoy Kang

did so many things secretly.

Yes.

He even insisted on letting Ah Shu stay in Yong

so that she won't be harmed by Long Tuqi.

Coincidentally, he helped our relationship.

Ah Shu is a princess now.

Then you...

Don't worry.

Ah Shu promised me

nothing will change.

We'll wait for things to settle down.

Once we get this place in order,

we'll move in.

Wang Kunwu.

I've figured out my future with Ah Shu.

What about you?

What are you going to do

about your future with Yuchi Hua?

Our future?

I'm afraid there's no future

with Wang Kunwu.

What's wrong?

Did Wang upset you?

He's straightforward.

Try to be more understanding of him.

Ah Shu,

it's not about being understanding or not.

You know what?

When I was unconscious,

he whispered in my ear

that he loves me.

Really?

But no matter how I asked him afterwards,

he just wouldn't admit it.

Could it be that you misheard?

He's not like Yuan Mo,

who's so shameless.

Anyway, I've made up my mind.

I'm going to ignore him from now on.

Let's see how he deals with that.

No, no, Hua.

If you do this, Wang will take it seriously.

Is there some misunderstanding here?

Misunderstanding?

What misunderstanding could there be?

Ah Shu,

he said it himself.

I heard it with my own ears.

There was no third party involved.

How could there be a misunderstanding?

No third party?

Are you sure there's no third party?

I've heard that

Young Master Huo from Huo Workshop is quite nice to you.

Brother Zi'an?

Listen to yourself.

"Brother Zi'an?"

What are you thinking?

That's because

I really see him as my brother.

But I'm afraid Brother Zi'an doesn't think that way.

Wait, Ah Shu.

I noticed that you've become naughty recently.

Is it because you've been spending too much time with Yuan Mo?

You're a princess now.

You need to be more proper, you know?

You can't act like a child anymore.

I understand, Hua.

Now, you are both Yanle's princess

and the Princess Longshuang of Yong.

Do you know what this means?

What else could it mean?

No matter which princess I am,

I'm still the same Ah Shu.

Ah Shu,

let me tell you something.

In a gambling house, the bigger the bet,

the more one hopes to gain.

In the future, it won't just be people like An Xiuyi

from Yong who talk about the bigger picture.

There will also be those

from Yanle who support or hate Long Tuqi,

and people from Mobei who want to profit from the situation.

In short, all kinds of people you can't even imagine

will try every possible way

to get what they want from you.

I know.

Those people all see me as a tool for their own gain.

Don't worry, Hua.

I won't let them control me.

Besides,

I still have all of you,

friends who truly care for me.

I'm content with that.

Ah Shu,

you call me your sister,

so let's be good sisters for life.

We'll get married together,

become mothers together,

and our children

will be as close as we are.

Oh, right.

Do you want a Yong-style wedding dress

or a Yanle-style one?

I'll make it for you.

Which one is more expensive?

Hey!

You've learned bad habits from Yuan Mo.

I'll like anything you make.

Alright,

then I'll make you one of each.

Great!

I'll pay for it.

You're rich.

I'm rich!

I'll go ask my father for more.

Thank you, Hua.

Don't drink too much.

I'm telling you, drowning your sorrows in alcohol is useless.

Listen to my advice.

Yuchi Hua is the best girl

you could ever cherish in this world.

Do you understand?

That An Xiuyi is no good.

And that Huo... Huo Zi'an...

He's someone to be wary of.

Be wary of him.

The flowers this year

are blooming beautifully.

When flowers bloom, one should pluck them promptly.

Don't wait until someone else takes her before you start regretting it.

Do you understand?

Alright.

I don't think you should go back tonight.

Just sleep here.

Come on.

Come, come.

It's more reassuring to have someone sleeping next to you.

Take it easy.

[Enjoy Yourself]

You're up so early.

I'm talking to you.

What are you thinking about?

Still feeling unwell, aren't you?

I'm telling you,

don't buy that kind of retail baijiu in the future.

A lot of it is fake.

Right now,

my head is killing me too.

You're actually right.

Good that you understand.

Life is unpredictable.

It's not that bad.

We're lucky we didn't go blind from drinking.

Let's go. Are we clocking in or not?

Thanks.

Thanks?

Thanks?

We really can't drink too much of this fake alcohol.

[Rising Wings]

Retainer Wang.

Our Lady is entertaining guests. You can't go in.

I have an urgent matter to discuss with your Lady.

Retainer Wang, you really can't go in.

Hua.

I've been thinking a lot these past few days.

There are some things I need to say to you in person.

Brother Zi'an,

I made my feelings clear the last time we met.

It's not something that can be changed by what you say.

It's not what you think.

I'm here to bid farewell.

Bid farewell?

Where are you going?

Mobei.

Why are you going

to such a distant place so suddenly?

The Suohe Mountains at the border of Mobei and Yanle

has ores used for forging armor.

Your wish is for all the soldiers of Yong

to wear impenetrable armor.

I'm willing to do my utmost

to fulfill this wish.

Being able to see you during this time,

take care of you,

and watch you get better, I'm content.

I've also come to fully understand your feelings.

I'm not in your heart.

I know you love Wang Kunwu.

I've repaired this soft armor.

I can only give it to you.

And Wang Kunwu

can protect the places that it can't.

So,

I wish you both the best.

Thank you, Brother Zi'an.

Retainer Wang.

You've come at the right time.

I've made an extra piece of this soft armor.

You're right.

With this soft armor,

people sometimes become reckless,

because they gain

the courage and boldness to take a step forward.

I hope this soft armor

will also give you some courage.

When are you leaving?

We'll set off in a moment.

I appreciate your thoughtfulness.

But now,

I don't need it anymore.

You should wear it.

The journey west is long.

Please be careful.

Brother Zi'an,

have a safe journey

and come back safely.

I will.

What are you doing here?

I have something to tell you.

Let's talk another day.

I'm a bit tired today.

I love you.

I've loved you for a long time.

You didn't mishear that day.

The person who whispered those words in your ear

was me.

At first, I felt very guilty.

I failed Duke Er's instructions.

I didn't take good care of you.

I got hurt willingly.

You don't need to feel guilty.

Actually, I was afraid.

I was really afraid.

I couldn't lose

the most important person in my life again.

Yes.

I've realized that you, Yuchi Hua,

are now the most important person in my life.

-Here.
-The princess is truly a kind person.

Come back when you've finished eating.

Now we don't have to worry about food anymore.

Here, take this.

Thank you, Princess.

Princess, it's heavy.

Here.

Thank you so much, Princess.

Thank you.

Thank you, thank you.

Wait a moment.

Take this.

This...

Quick, thank the Princess.

Thank you, Princess.

Here.

Thank you, Princess.

Let's go.

San Niang.

Please spare our lives, Your Honors.

We are all refugees.

We are all refugees.

Have mercy, Your Honor.

Why have you been following me all this way?

Speak.

Who sent you here?

Forgive us, Princess.

We mean no harm.

You're from Yanle?

Yes, Princess.

What's your name?

Princess,

I don't have a name.

My mother calls me Stone.

We are all lowly people from Yanle.

We fled to Yong to escape the hardships of forced labor.

We heard that the Princess has appeared,

so we came to beg for your blessing.

Please save us and our families.

Princess, please save us.

Please save us.

What happened to your families?

Princess,

please look.

If you're sick, you should go to a hospital.

Coming to me won't help.

Princess,

the poor people of Yanle

believe that the Yanle royal family are reincarnated immortals

who can save them from suffering and hardship.

I'm not an immortal.

I'm just an ordinary person too.

From your condition, it seems you've contracted smallpox.

You need to immediately soak your body in honeysuckle to kill the virus.

Also,

this disease is easily transmitted to the elderly and weak.

Are there others who are sick besides you?

Yes, there are.

But everyone else is very afraid.

They drive us away wherever we go.

So we can only live together

and look after each other.

That won't do.

If you pass the illness to each other,

not only will those infected not recover,

but those who aren't infected will also gradually fall ill too.

San Niang,

find a secluded courtyard immediately.

Yes.

Si Niang,

take some soldiers and follow Stone.

Bring all the infected refugees here.

Yes, Princess.

Thank you, Princess.

Thank you, Princess.

Please lead the way.

Please, this way.

Please.

Hold on!

Fellow villagers!

Hurry, keep up!

San Niang!

San Niang, quick!

This child is very sick.

This is a new group of refugees.

Please make arrangements for them.

Come here.

Come.

Si Niang.

Princess.

Are all the rooms inside full?

They're all full, Princess.

For those with milder symptoms,

we can only let them

stay in the sheds for now.

Princess,

why don't you return to the mansion first?

We can handle things here.

Princess, you have a royal body.

What if you were to catch this disease?

I'll be fine.

Go and get all the straw mats, blankets,

and quilts from the Yanle Embassy, and distribute them to everyone.

Then report to the Ministry of Rites

and ask them to send some doctors here.

Okay.

Did you get all that?

I got it, Princess.

Don't worry.

We're here.

Ji?

Why are you here?

Mr. Yuan learned that the refugees here have fallen ill.

He specifically asked me to bring doctors

to treat everyone's illness.

Yubin.

Go boil some water.

Steep this medicine bag in it.

Okay.

Thank you all.

Here.

San Niang.

Honeysuckle.

That's right.

Princess, you should rest.

Let us handle these matters.

Let's do it together.

Quickly fetch water.

Okay.

[Half a month later]

Cheers!

Cheers!

You know,

as soon as news spread about the epidemic being curbed,

all the merchants in Changle City rushed to celebrate.

They say this year's Lantern Festival will be a grand affair.

Lantern Festival?

She doesn't know.

Tell her about it.

It's like Valentine's Day in Yong.

Unmarried men and women

can take to the streets with their handmade lanterns.

If they meet someone they like,

they can give their lantern to that person.

So, we have to make the lanterns ourselves?

Of course.

Yuchi,

you grew up in Changle and don't know about this?

I didn't have the leisure for such things before.

But now...

Come on, let's drink!

Drink, drink, drink! Come on!

Let's not overdo it. Come on.

Let's drink!

Drink up, drink up!

Ever since these merchants

started their Lantern Festival sales events,

the Lantern Festival has lost its original meaning.

All these merchants, big and small,

rely on this day to make their year's profit.

Who cares if they make money or not?

We're just buying into the festive atmosphere, right?

Right, the festivity.

Let's join in the fun when the time comes.

We're short of many things at home anyway,

so we can buy them all at once.

Ah Shu now has her own mansion.

Does she still need to worry about these things?

Neither a gold nor a silver nest...

Is better than our own nest!

Come on, come on.

Isn't it funny?

Ah Shu, over here.

What are you doing?

What are you doing?

I...

I'm going to the mansion.

That's our princess's mansion.

It's not yours.

We've talked about this before.

Where's your request card?

That's enough, Si Niang.

Yuan Mo and I don't need such formalities between us.

Princess,

you haven't even taken him as your royal consort yet.

Even if that day comes,

you'll still be more noble than him.

Etiquette must not be abandoned.

We just want to see each other often.

Exactly.

Hasn't anyone instructed you?

You should relax the requirements when needed.

Deputy Envoy Kang did seem to mention that.

But that's only allowed during the day.

It's absolutely forbidden at night.

-Back off!
-Let's go.

Back off.

Yuan... Yuan Mo.

Didn't you say nothing would change?

Everything has changed!

[Yuchi's Mansion]

I'm sorry.

-I'm sorry.
-It hurts so much.

Seriously.

Where did you get hit?

My head.

Where are we?

We're home.

Here, let me rub it for you.

Rub my head? What are you thinking?

Yeah.

I mean to rub your head.

It's all your fault.

Father.

Greetings, Duke Er.

Why are you back so late?

Go and get some rest.

It's alright.

I've truly underestimated you.

I originally wanted to scold you a bit

to make you know to back off.

But I didn't expect you to be so persistent, young man.

I have already reflected deeply on my mistakes

and expressed my true feelings to Hua.

From now on, nothing can separate us.

Including me?

Yes, including you, Duke Er.

I can sense it.

You two are very much in love.

I...

I'll give in to your wishes.

But remember this,

you must treat Hua well

for a lifetime.

Otherwise...

There's something I don't understand.

Go on.

Why is My Lord going to such great lengths?

Since we already know Ah Shu's identity,

why don't we just kill her and be done with it?

The people of Yanle value bloodline above all else.

Yanle's princess has royal blood flowing through her veins.

Long Tuqi wants it

and so do I.

You could say

that whoever controls Yanle's princess

will possess Yanle,

and even control the entire desert.

So,

what's our next move?

The Lantern Festival in Yong State is coming up soon, isn't it?

Then let's give Changle City a grand gift.
