[Echoes of the Self]

Mrs. Zhou,

this tea is what I've granted to you.

Mrs. Zhou,

you must drink it.

I really

cannot drink it.

Why are you so resistant, Mrs. Zhou?

Could there be something wrong with this tea?

This does not make sense.

If there is something wrong with this tea,

how would you know about it, Mrs. Zhou?

No...

There's nothing wrong with it.

How could there be?

Is there really nothing wrong with it?

Would it cause something like

tuberculosis,

which might make a person bedridden?

The poisoning symptoms

are like those of tuberculosis.

In mild cases,

a person may become bedridden.

This person

may even die.

In severe cases,

a person may even die.

Madam.

Madam.

Mrs. Zhou.

Don't worry.

This tea

is peach kernel tea I brought from Daqing.

It's not the deadly poison

delivered by Xi.

However, let me give you some advice, too.

From now on,

I'm the protector of Xi and her mother.

Even after I get married,

I will never abandon them.

So,

cease your

malicious intentions and dirty tricks.

Otherwise,

I will make you pay the price.

Let's go.

It's alright now, Madam.

[Prince Yan's Mansion]

[Prince Yan's Mansion]

Only by completely solving the loan sharking case

can I truly protect Mother and Xi.

The only person I can trust now

[Prince Yan's Mansion]

is Yan.

Your Highness,

why are you here?

Lieutenant Liang.

Liang Feng!

How have you been lately?

I...

I've been fine.

Take me to see Prince Yan.

Your Highness, please come in.

[Prince Yan's Mansion]

Your Highness, are you trying to say that

my carefully selected future husband...

is you?

Princess Fu Wei.

Your Highness,

the princess is here.

Please.

What brings you

here today?

Prince Yan,

regarding the posthouse incident,

I wonder

whether there's any progress.

Princess,

do you recognize this?

This was taken from the corpses of

Daqing's Peace-Making Marriage Delegation after they were assassinated

in the posthouse.

It's a black iron dart from Daqing Wolf Camp.

Are you suspecting that

I demand to arrest the culprit when I'm actually the mastermind?

Your safety concerns diplomatic relations between our two countries.

However, someone

dared to commit an assassination

in the Imperial City's posthouse.

I guess

no matter who this person is,

his purpose

is to provoke conflicts between Yunrui and Daqing.

Fighting at wars

requires money.

What do you mean?

Yunrui's loan sharking problem

has been rampant lately.

Even the women of Zhou's Mansion

and their maternal families are involved.

I guess there's a hidden connection among them.

I want you to help me verify it.

You're so concerned about this matter.

I assume

it's for your aunt, huh?

You're so insightful.

But you're not quite close to your aunt.

Why are you helping her to such an extent?

Though my aunt and I aren't close,

she's still related to me by blood.

Besides,

I also can't stand seeing people being bullied.

But what makes you think that

I'll definitely help you?

Because you're soft-hearted

and can't bear to see the weak people being bullied.

I'm...

soft-hearted?

Your Highness.

Go investigate

the clues related to the loan sharking case.

[Victim List of the Loan Sharking Case]

Yes, sir.

Your Highness.

The posthouse case hasn't been solved yet.

Why do you suddenly want to investigate the loan sharking case?

Do you

really believe in what Princess Fu Wei said?

In my opinion,

this princess isn't as simple as she seems.

Your Highness, don't fall into her badger-game trap.

Who are you exactly?

Why do you always appear in my dreams?

[Zhou's Mansion]

Xi.

Mother.

Xi.

Mother.

Mother.

These days,

you've lost weight again.

In the future,

if I pass away,

how will you

manage on your own?

That won't happen.

You'll be fine.

Mother.

Silly child.

Separation in life and death

is quite common.

Remember this.

After I pass away,

you can only cry for a few days.

After that,

dry your tears

and live well.

My only regret is that

I cannot stay with my Xi

for a little longer.

I don't expect

you can have great wealth or a high status.

I only hope

you can stay healthy

and safe year after year.

I will.

I definitely will.

Remember

to keep

this jade pendant well.

At a critical moment,

maybe

it can save your life.

Mother.

This is...

Mother.

Mother!

Mother!

Mother!

Mother.

Mother.

Mother.

Mother!

Mother!

Mother.

Mother.

Xi.

Mother.

Xi.

Mother.

Mother!

Mother!

How could this happen?

Mother!

Mother!

Why are this happening?

Mother!

Mother!

My Lord!

I'm innocent!

Mother!

Mother!

Mother!

Mother!

Your Highness.

Your Highness.

Your Highness, you're finally awake.

You've been unconscious for so long.

Where is Madam Wang?

How is she?

Madam Wang...

Madam Wang has passed away.

Your Highness!

Your Highness!

Your Highness.

How could this happen?

It was that bowl of medicine.

Someone must have put poison in that bowl of medicine.

Lord Zhou has already sent people to investigate it.

They said there was nothing wrong with the medicine.

The doctor said

Madam Wang had been ill from years of overwork,

and after being flogged,

she failed to survive.

Your Highness!

Your Highness!

Your Highness!

This substitute not only resembles Miss Zhou Ruoxi,

but she's also heartbroken about Madam Wang's death.

Why is that?

Why?

Why was the ending still the same

after I came back to this life?

I couldn't save

those who I wanted to save.

I couldn't keep

those who I wanted to keep.

Why did Heaven let me come back?

This is just a joke.

A joke.

Princess,

you're drunk.

Since you're here,

why don't you have a drink with me?

Let me tell you a story.

Once upon a time,

there was a person who was alone and helpless.

Even her closest one was killed, too.

She wanted to take revenge,

but she didn't have such ability.

She could only take advantage of others.

She thought after she gained a high status,

everything would be different.

But in the end, she still caused her own death.

She also caused the death of the only person who cared about her.

She was not willing to accept this ending.

Fortunately, Heaven pitied her

and gave her a chance to start over.

But she still messed things up.

She was so useless.

Nothing was changed in the end.

No.

It was worse than before.

It was more tragic than before.

It was...

It was more tragic than before.

Princess.

Gains, losses, glory and failure are all determined by Heaven.

What we can do as humans

is to do our best and strive for what we want.

I believe

you're not someone who would give up easily.

Isn't that right?

Yes, that's right.

I shouldn't give up so easily.

[Zhou's Mansion]

Mother!

Mother!

Wait!

Mother!

Go away!

Wait!

I beg you!

This will never end, huh?

-Go away! -Wait!

Mother!

Step aside!

Father!

Big Mother!

Big Mother!

I beg you.

Please let my mother's memorial tablet be placed in the ancestral hall.

Can you?

She doesn't deserve it.

Nor do you!

Give it to me.

Dream on!

Xi.

Xi, stand up first.

Whatever it is,

discuss it properly with Father.

You worthless woman!

In Zhou's Mansion,

how dare you, a concubine's daughter, act so impudently?

Father, you married my mother back then

to take advantage of the Wang family's influence.

Later, the Wang family fell.

Then you married another woman.

Xi.

Stop talking about it.

You formed a connection‌ with the Cui family.

And now you want to use

my eldest sister's friendship with the Crown Prince

to let him marry your daughter and form a connection with him.

You...

Father, you've made such an elaborate plan

and have been so visionary‌.

Yet can't you tolerate a small memorial tablet?

You...

I...

It looks like you weren't slapped hard enough.

How dare you openly defy your father?

Guards!

Here!

Beat her severely!

Yes!

Mother.

Mother.

What are you waiting for?

Your mother

can never enter the ancestral hall of Zhou's Mansion.

Who says my aunt wants to enter the ancestral hall of Zhou's Mansion?
