00:09:54,200 --> 00:09:54,880
Thank you, Your Majesty.

190
00:09:55,200 --> 00:09:56,960
Why did you become distant with me?

191
00:09:57,880 --> 00:09:59,360
When you were a child,
every time you saw me,

192
00:09:59,360 --> 00:10:00,800
you'd be hopping

193
00:10:00,880 --> 00:10:01,840
to my side with joy.

194
00:10:02,200 --> 00:10:03,760
Now you're kneeling so far away from me.

195
00:10:04,840 --> 00:10:05,640
I've grown up.

196
00:10:06,640 --> 00:10:07,720
I am aware of the difference
between an emperor and his followers.

197
00:10:08,240 --> 00:10:09,160
Do you have to

198
00:10:09,280 --> 00:10:10,480
make me sad?

199
00:10:11,160 --> 00:10:11,720
Uncle...

200
00:10:14,400 --> 00:10:15,280
Come on, get up.

201
00:10:17,200 --> 00:10:19,240
All these years in the freezing land,

202
00:10:19,600 --> 00:10:20,360
it must be difficult for you.

203
00:10:20,960 --> 00:10:22,040
Uncle, I've been guarding your Empire.

204
00:10:22,800 --> 00:10:23,800
That bit of hardship is nothing.

205
00:10:24,880 --> 00:10:25,600
Yanxi,

206
00:10:26,200 --> 00:10:27,680
about the problems today,

207
00:10:27,760 --> 00:10:28,960
do you know what caused them?

208
00:10:29,840 --> 00:10:30,760
Uncle, please enlighten me.

209
00:10:31,120 --> 00:10:32,400
Prince Xian, Prince Hui,

210
00:10:32,760 --> 00:10:33,720
they're no match for you.

211
00:10:34,680 --> 00:10:36,120
At the age of three, you were held

212
00:10:36,320 --> 00:10:37,560
in the arms of
the late Emperor and Empress,

213
00:10:37,680 --> 00:10:38,600
cherished like a rare treasure.

214
00:10:39,120 --> 00:10:41,560
This is known to everyone in the court.

215
00:10:41,720 --> 00:10:44,000
Qi Ruoai attempted to frame you

216
00:10:44,120 --> 00:10:45,360
because he knew that

217
00:10:45,600 --> 00:10:46,960
I have no choice but to doubt you.

218
00:10:51,520 --> 00:10:53,080
What are you doing, Yanxi?

219
00:10:56,320 --> 00:10:56,920
This blade,

220
00:10:57,720 --> 00:10:59,040
was bestowed upon me by Your Majesty.

221
00:11:00,800 --> 00:11:02,400
I heard that one with a disfigured face

222
00:11:02,520 --> 00:11:03,720
cannot be appointed as the crown prince.

223
00:11:04,200 --> 00:11:05,520
Today, I am using this blade

224
00:11:06,040 --> 00:11:07,360
to fulfil your wish,

225
00:11:07,680 --> 00:11:09,080
and to repay the grace of being raised.

226
00:11:14,600 --> 00:11:15,480
Yanxi,

227
00:11:15,480 --> 00:11:16,560
You don't need to do this.

228
00:11:18,520 --> 00:11:19,200
As your Uncle,

229
00:11:19,240 --> 00:11:20,440
will I ever distrust you?

230
00:11:21,560 --> 00:11:22,440
If you trust me,

231
00:11:23,640 --> 00:11:24,800
I trust you as well.

232
00:11:35,840 --> 00:11:36,960
I'm willing to leave the North

233
00:11:37,960 --> 00:11:39,040
and join
the Seven-Star Bureau,

234
00:11:39,280 --> 00:11:40,480
to be under your command.

235
00:11:42,520 --> 00:11:43,280
Yanxi,

236
00:11:44,440 --> 00:11:46,000
I was right about you.

237
00:11:47,080 --> 00:11:47,960
Whether you are in the North

238
00:11:48,120 --> 00:11:50,000
leading troops to guard the border,

239
00:11:50,640 --> 00:11:53,000
or taking charge of
the Seven Constellations Bureau,

240
00:11:53,560 --> 00:11:55,120
you'll always be

241
00:11:55,480 --> 00:11:56,760
the only one I trust.

242
00:11:58,200 --> 00:11:59,200
Now as you have accepted the position,

243
00:11:59,640 --> 00:12:01,160
you shall start working now.

244
00:12:01,720 --> 00:12:03,080
Get this done for me.

245
00:12:04,120 --> 00:12:04,880
I shall obey the decree.

246
00:12:07,280 --> 00:12:08,280
Your Majesty,

247
00:12:09,040 --> 00:12:10,280
The Empress Dowager invites you

248
00:12:10,280 --> 00:12:12,240
to Fengxiang Palace for tea and a chat.

249
00:12:13,760 --> 00:12:15,080
The Empress Dowager

250
00:12:15,480 --> 00:12:17,040
is always so well-informed.

251
00:12:38,530 --> 00:12:40,050
[Hua Mansion]

252
00:12:43,960 --> 00:12:44,720
Coming!

253
00:12:51,640 --> 00:12:52,280
Do it!

254
00:13:15,200 --> 00:13:16,200
By imperial command, raid the house!

255
00:13:16,800 --> 00:13:18,680
Those who disobey
will be executed on the spot!

256
00:13:19,160 --> 00:13:21,040
Those who hide things will be executed
as well!

257
00:13:21,880 --> 00:13:23,160
Be alert, all of you!

258
00:13:23,720 --> 00:13:24,880
If any of them escaped,

259
00:13:25,060 --> 00:13:27,520
[Yuan Qi, Deputy Supervisor]
you'll die!

260
00:13:28,160 --> 00:13:28,680
Go!

261
00:13:28,800 --> 00:13:29,440
Yes, Sir!

262
00:13:30,680 --> 00:13:31,280
My God!

263
00:13:31,640 --> 00:13:32,440
What has happened?

264
00:13:32,960 --> 00:13:33,800
How dare they?

265
00:13:36,080 --> 00:13:36,880
Quickly go find the children!

266
00:13:37,320 --> 00:13:38,600
Protect them at all costs.

267
00:13:56,720 --> 00:13:57,800
What crime has my family committed?

268
00:13:58,520 --> 00:13:59,800
Minister Hua is found guilty,

269
00:14:00,040 --> 00:14:01,200
affecting the entire family.

270
00:14:01,800 --> 00:14:03,680
We are ordered to confiscate
all family property.

271
00:14:03,960 --> 00:14:05,320
The Empress Dowager showed mercy,

272
00:14:05,560 --> 00:14:07,120
spared women and children.

273
00:14:08,920 --> 00:14:09,440
Arrest them.

274
00:14:09,640 --> 00:14:10,080
Yes, sir!

275
00:14:16,440 --> 00:14:17,840
I am protected by the imperial edict.

276
00:14:18,600 --> 00:14:20,760
Don't you dare touch me.

277
00:14:24,800 --> 00:14:25,600
Then,

278
00:14:26,960 --> 00:14:27,760
please.

279
00:14:43,640 --> 00:14:44,200
Move.

[Lessons for Women]

281
00:14:53,280 --> 00:14:53,680
Stop!

00:14:53,920 --> 00:14:54,640
Hurry up!

Just run!

Don't!

293
00:15:32,520 --> 00:15:33,720
Are you blind?

294
00:15:56,160 --> 00:15:58,600
We're here to confiscate, not to kill.

295
00:16:00,240 --> 00:16:00,960
Yes.

296
00:16:03,320 --> 00:16:03,960
Sir,

297
00:16:04,120 --> 00:16:05,080
Such a small matter as confiscation,

298
00:16:05,080 --> 00:16:05,600
we won't trouble you with it.

299
00:16:05,600 --> 00:16:06,800
We have taken care of everything.

What is this place?

00:16:16,240 --> 00:16:18,120
This is the library.

00:16:20,360 --> 00:16:21,400
This is nothing special.

00:16:22,560 --> 00:16:24,000

Shall we confiscate the things in here?

00:19:15,840 --> 00:19:16,840
And why don't you run?

323
00:19:23,480 --> 00:19:25,480
The Emperor owns the world.

324
00:19:26,120 --> 00:19:27,040
What's the use of crying?

325
00:19:27,720 --> 00:19:28,880
And where could I run to?

326
00:19:29,440 --> 00:19:30,040
Yes,

327
00:19:31,280 --> 00:19:32,520

328
00:19:48,600 --> 00:19:49,240

don't dirty my things.

Is this your place?

331
00:20:02,880 --> 00:20:03,920
It belongs to my family.

332
00:20:04,440 --> 00:20:06,240
I borrowed it
for calculations and to read stars.

333
00:20:06,520 --> 00:20:07,440
You can read stars?

334
00:20:07,840 --> 00:20:08,840
Then how come you didn't foresee

335
00:20:08,880 --> 00:20:10,160
this great disaster of your family?

336
00:20:10,400 --> 00:20:11,320
People are foolish.

337
00:20:11,760 --> 00:20:12,960
They do not know
what goes around comes around.

338
00:20:13,480 --> 00:20:14,840
The lifespan of mortals,

339
00:20:15,000 --> 00:20:16,360
compare with the sun, moon, and stars,

340
00:20:16,480 --> 00:20:18,200
is like dust to the ocean.

341
00:20:18,720 --> 00:20:19,880
The emperor sits high above.

342
00:20:20,160 --> 00:20:21,400
He will not show pity to the Hua family,

343
00:20:21,960 --> 00:20:23,360
and the stars will not, for one person,

344
00:20:23,520 --> 00:20:24,960
or the downfall of a clan, a nation,

345
00:20:25,240 --> 00:20:26,320
show any abnormalities.

346
00:20:27,240 --> 00:20:28,440
So, you have accepted your fate?

347
00:20:30,720 --> 00:20:31,640
It's good.

348
00:20:32,160 --> 00:20:33,000
Without all the wishful thinking,

349
00:20:33,560 --> 00:20:34,520
there will be no disappointment.

350
00:20:34,560 --> 00:20:35,440
I do not accept my fate.

00:20:39,000 --> 00:20:40,320
If there truly is a mandate from heaven,

352
00:20:40,680 --> 00:20:42,000
grandfather wouldn't have been charged.

353
00:20:42,280 --> 00:20:43,360
He wanted to be an honest official,

354
00:20:43,760 --> 00:20:44,760
not to deceive the people,

355
00:20:44,920 --> 00:20:45,840
nor the emperor.

356
00:20:46,680 --> 00:20:48,560
You all know that he's innocent.

357
00:20:48,800 --> 00:20:49,880
And yet, why was he convicted?

358
00:20:55,160 --> 00:20:55,680
Sir,

359
00:20:56,280 --> 00:20:56,960
It's done.

360
00:20:57,440 --> 00:20:58,720
All suspicious books and papers

361
00:20:58,880 --> 00:20:59,600
have been collected.

362
00:20:59,960 --> 00:21:00,560
Good.

363
00:21:02,720 --> 00:21:03,160
Take her.

364
00:21:03,600 --> 00:21:04,160
Yes, Sir.

All of the Hua family are here.

Every male over ten years old

368
00:22:00,600 --> 00:22:02,800
is going to the Ministry of Justice
for identification,

369
00:22:03,080 --> 00:22:04,240
then detained for trial.

370
00:22:06,000 --> 00:22:07,240
There are a few left here.

371
00:22:07,320 --> 00:22:08,160
Don't miss any.

372
00:22:15,920 --> 00:22:17,160
Hua Bolin has just turned nine.

373
00:22:17,320 --> 00:22:18,280
He is exempt from punishment.

374
00:22:24,800 --> 00:22:25,920

375
00:22:26,080 --> 00:22:26,800

377
00:22:29,240 --> 00:22:30,640
that in last month,

Hua Boyu has just celebrated
his tenth birthday.

379

The Hua mansion is now seized.

You have fifteen minutes

409

to gather your food, clothing
and belongings.

410
00:24:20,800 --> 00:24:21,680
After that, you shall leave.

412
00:24:26,680 --> 00:24:28,400
isn't a part of the confiscation, right?

413
00:24:28,960 --> 00:24:30,760
There is a manor granted by
the Empress Dowager,

414
00:24:31,240 --> 00:24:32,480
five miles ouside the East City Gate.

415

Eh... Are you sure?

418
00:24:42,400 --> 00:24:44,000
The order was to seize their property.

419
00:24:44,080 --> 00:24:45,360
Was it you who received the order,

420
00:24:45,360 --> 00:24:45,920

Where are they?

The pastry box that he likes.

you're already busy with work

yet still made great efforts in writing.

When retirement comes,

474
00:28:43,360 --> 00:28:44,840
you'll likely lose yourself in writing.

But, the books can wait.

Why don't you just take a rest?

477
