Your Majesty,

Lou Siyi just returned to the court today

and was ambushed,

resulting in damage to his male organ.

He can no longer have heirs.

Who

would be so eager to take action

to eliminate Nan Yan's uncle?

What do you mean?

If the Residence of the General Who Assists the State and Prince Ning form an alliance through marriage,

Nan Yan would be pitiful.

Just because Nan Yan

because of my bloodline,

you only favor Prince Ning

and give up on me?

Jin Zhu likes Nanzhi since childhood,

so I want to fulfill them.

I have no other intentions.

It's their own free will.

How can I be biased?

What do you think?

But Lou Siyi's injury is not simple.

Prince Ning is hunting outside the city,

as if deliberately clearing himself of this.

Your Majesty,

Miss Jinzhu requests an audience.

Let her in.

Yes.

Your Majesty,

Your Majesty.

Rise.

Last time I saw you,

you were a little girl

following Nanzhi around.

Now you've grown into a fine young lady.

I am unworthy of such praise.

What's wrong?

I'm here to apologize.

I

can't marry you.

Why?

Today, at the city gate,

I was held by a strange man

in public.

My reputation is damaged.

I dare not marry into the royal family.

I'm afraid it will tarnish the royal family's reputation.

Strange man?

What man?

It's him.

I can only

marry him.

Miss,

I'm sorry.

I'm unable to perform marital duties.

I can't marry.

It's okay.

I don't mind.

If we

get into details,

when General Lu met me at the gate,

I was unmarried,

and you were not injured.

Therefore...

Enough.

You all go out.

I want to talk to Jin Zhu.

Tell me,

what is your real reason for breaking off the engagement?

General Lu,

you may never wield a sword again.

It's a pity for your descendants.

You're quite something,

just back and already making the Jin girl wanna marry you.

I don't know her at all.

You're the youngest of the Lous,

sent to the northern frontier at 8,

been gone 16 years,

I barely recognize you.

Your mother was Lady Liu, right?

Too bad she died young,

never got to see you return in glory.

Return in glory is too much,

but true glory

to achieve true honor.

Though I can no longer lead troops,

I can assist you

in managing the court as a Prime Minister,

and fulfill our grand ambitions.

The position of Prime Minister has been

vacant for long, and no one dares to take it.

You are quite bold.

But as soon as you returned,

you became entangled with the General.

If she insists on marrying you,

with one of you as the Prime Minister

one is a high-ranking official,

the other has military power.

How can I

trust that you are on my side?

I want to marry General Lou

not for any ulterior motive.

I just want to protect my chastity

and not tarnish the royal reputation.

Your family has been defending the border

for three generations.

You have made great contributions.

I naturally want to reward you.

and marrying you to Nanzhi

is to fulfill your childhood love.

That's because of the tolerance of the elders

that I can make a fuss.

And Your Majesty has never issued an edict on this matter.

So I beg Your Majesty...

Enough.

This matter is not urgent.

We'll discuss it later.

Your Majesty wants to marry the Jins to Prince Ning.

On the surface, it's to fulfill the love of the lovers.

In fact, it's to increase the military strength of Prince Ning.

[But due to the Lou family's influence,]

[he can't openly favor them.]

[He can only say that Jin is infatuated.]

[How could these ladies not know?]

Zhou Nanzhi can't wait to kill me.

The battle for the Crown Prince is already on the table.

So it's not that I'm bold,

but you need me.

Then I'll be waiting

for the good news of my appointment as Prime Minister.

My Lady,

we haven't seen each other for 16 years.

Is he really Lou Siyi?

We don't know.

Take it easy.

I have a way to test him.

Why are you here, Miss Jin?

General Lou,

what I just said...

I can't have sex,

and I don't want to get married.

You don't have to sacrifice yourself for the female training.

We're not related from now on.

Lou Siyi,

Your wound needs rest,

and it needs to be disinfected immediately.

I'll find a place for you to rest.

Come on, I'll help you.

Thank you, Miss.

But what is disinfection?

[The plot is going smoothly.]

[You'll fall soon,]

[and the male lead will hold you unconsciously.]

[When you look at each other,]

[he will develop a good feeling for you.]

[You can get 200 points.]

Disinfection means...

What are you doing?

I'm leaving for Jingdu.

Thank you for your help.

What?

What about me?

You've helped me a lot.

Why don't you go back to Jingdu with me?

Okay.

How do you know I'm Miss Luo?

This is the Luo Village.

So I guess your surname is Luo.

[What's going on with the system?]

[There's still a month of plot here.]

[Why is he suddenly leaving?]

[I haven't earned any points yet.]

[Sorry, host.]

[I don't know about things outside the plot.]

Let's go.

Miss Luo.

Let me help you.

Pulling and pushing with strange men in public.

I wonder where Miss Jin

learned such manners.

I know

it's hard for you

to believe.

But please trust me.

Only by marrying me

can you change your fate.

Because this is

a picture book.

Jin, Jin.

Your Highness.

Why are you here?

I see.

You're here to see the Emperor, right?

A month ago,

you also came to the palace.

A month ago?

What does that mean?

The Emperor said

you came to the palace a month ago

and said you didn't want to marry me.

Your Highness,

how many days are left

until Prince Ning's birthday?

His birthday

is tomorrow.

Tomorrow?

Did you sleep well tonight?

I can sleep well at Qingxiao Pavilion.

But you often go there.

Aren't you afraid of being suspected?

If I'm too careful,

it will arouse suspicion.

But if I seem to be a womanizer,

people will just laugh at me.

Then they won't suspect me.

The Empress can't hold back anymore.

Your Majesty,

the people sent are ready to take action.

Lou Siyi is allergic to hawthorn.

If he really replaces me,

he must have been well prepared

before he comes back.

It doesn't matter whether to test or not.

But after a month,

there may be a surprise.

In the past month,

in the name of taking care of me,

the Empress has already

in the mansion.

She's suspecting my identity.

She won't stop

until she confirms it.

Lou Siyi is allergic to hawthorn.

You knew it 15 years ago.

Once you take this pill,

you'll get hives right away.

You became the Chancellor at a young age.

You're so powerful.

Impressive.

But you got injured in the war,

in a sensitive area.

What a pity!

He's like a rootless duckweed.

It's better to call him Lord Duckweed.

This man

is the spy the Empress planted here.

You're blocking the light.

Mr. Lou,

Miss Jinzhu from the General's Residence

insists on barging in.

Mr. Lou,

I have something important to discuss.

Miss Jin,

this is Qingxiao Pavilion,

where we discuss romance,

not state affairs.

But

His Majesty wants to arrange a marriage between you and Prince Ning.

You're like this now,

which might be inappropriate.

Lou Siyi,

I want you

to marry me.

Miss Jin, do you know

I'm injured

and can't consummate?

I know.

Do you know

I'm Prince Ning's uncle?

If you marry him,

you'll be my niece-in-law.

I know.

Do you know

we're political rivals

and will eventually fight to the death?

I know.

Then why should I do this?

Because only by marrying you

can we change our fate.

What fate?

Everything I want and love

is out of reach.

Who gave you the guts

to predict my fate?

Because we are both

supporting characters in this story.

The ending is already written.

And I've seen my ending once.

What made you

think

I'm easygoing?
