[Episode 6]
3
00:01:44,840 --> 00:01:45,950
How dare you!
4
00:01:47,350 --> 00:01:48,150
Your Majesty!
5
00:01:48,150 --> 00:01:48,950
Your Majesty!
6
00:01:49,350 --> 00:01:51,479
Your Majesty,
I'm only doing this for Great Xia!
7
00:01:51,479 --> 00:01:52,710
Even if it may displease you,
8
00:01:52,710 --> 00:01:53,870
I must speak up!
9
00:01:54,789 --> 00:01:55,830
Th—That's right!
10
00:01:56,229 --> 00:01:57,759
I am willing to die to make my point!
11
00:01:57,759 --> 00:01:58,840
Me too!
12
00:02:04,480 --> 00:02:06,590
I wasn't talking about you.
13
00:02:07,070 --> 00:02:07,530
Come on.
14
00:02:08,000 --> 00:02:09,259
My beloved ministers,
15
00:02:09,750 --> 00:02:10,479
please rise.
16
00:02:11,190 --> 00:02:12,430
Get up.
17
00:02:12,590 --> 00:02:13,520
-Hurry.
-Get up.
18
00:02:13,520 --> 00:02:14,120
Up, up, up.
19
00:02:16,360 --> 00:02:17,760
Thank you, Your Majesty.
20
00:02:19,040 --> 00:02:20,710
Recently,
several of the Empress Dowager’s faction
21
00:02:20,710 --> 00:02:22,800
have submitted memorials
impeaching your father.
22
00:02:22,800 --> 00:02:25,460
I pretended to have a headache
to brush them off.
23
00:02:26,030 --> 00:02:29,360
It seems the Empress Dowager
means to make an example of him.
24
00:02:29,560 --> 00:02:30,620
Should we respond?
25
00:02:31,750 --> 00:02:32,740
We could.
26
00:02:33,310 --> 00:02:33,960
Just...
27
00:02:34,590 --> 00:02:35,250
demote him.
28
00:02:37,120 --> 00:02:38,680
That heartless?
29
00:02:39,190 --> 00:02:40,320
It’s not heartless.
30
00:02:40,470 --> 00:02:41,670
It's for his own good.
31
00:02:42,150 --> 00:02:43,030
How so?
32
00:02:43,590 --> 00:02:45,150
On the surface, they’re impeaching him.
33
00:02:45,150 --> 00:02:45,840
In truth,
34
00:02:46,310 --> 00:02:48,240
the Empress Dowager is warning me.
35
00:02:48,870 --> 00:02:51,150
After all, the incident of
Noble Consort Wei losing the sarira agate
36
00:02:51,150 --> 00:02:52,550
escalated because of me.
37
00:02:52,910 --> 00:02:54,590
If she doesn’t vent her anger,
38
00:02:55,520 --> 00:02:57,050
this nominal father of mine
39
00:02:57,310 --> 00:02:58,800
may suffer far worse.
40
00:03:01,710 --> 00:03:03,520
Then we can't just demote your father.
41
00:03:03,520 --> 00:03:06,240
I should probably give you
the cold shoulder for a while too.
42
00:03:06,240 --> 00:03:07,770
We have to make it look real.
43
00:03:08,720 --> 00:03:10,320
CEO Dan, you’re meticulous.
44
00:03:14,710 --> 00:03:15,750
Minister Yu!
45
00:03:16,590 --> 00:03:17,990
How dare you!
46
00:03:18,590 --> 00:03:19,390
Your Majesty,
47
00:03:19,710 --> 00:03:20,079
I am
48
00:03:20,590 --> 00:03:22,390
wrongly accused, Your Majesty!
49
00:03:23,030 --> 00:03:23,829
Your Majesty!
50
00:03:23,960 --> 00:03:26,120
It’s true I enjoy playing cards
51
00:03:27,280 --> 00:03:29,280
and often gather with a few friends.
52
00:03:29,560 --> 00:03:29,960
But...
53
00:03:30,280 --> 00:03:32,230
accusing me of taking bribes
54
00:03:32,470 --> 00:03:33,750
is simply false!
55
00:03:34,310 --> 00:03:37,310
I’m just better at cards than most,
56
00:03:37,840 --> 00:03:39,820
so winning a bit more is normal.
57
00:03:40,240 --> 00:03:40,770
However,
58
00:03:40,800 --> 00:03:41,960
the game I play
59
00:03:42,030 --> 00:03:43,690
is 10 coins a round,
60
00:03:43,870 --> 00:03:46,130
with a daily cap
of half a string of coins!
61
00:03:46,280 --> 00:03:47,079
How...
62
00:03:47,710 --> 00:03:48,510
How could that
63
00:03:48,840 --> 00:03:51,500
possibly count as taking bribes,
Your Majesty?
64
00:03:51,680 --> 00:03:53,190
How dare you keep making excuses!
65
00:03:53,190 --> 00:03:55,750
If only one person impeached you,
you could claim injustice.
66
00:03:55,750 --> 00:03:57,680
But now 3 court ministers
are impeaching you together,
67
00:03:57,680 --> 00:03:59,120
with evidence to back it up!
68
00:03:59,120 --> 00:04:00,710
How can you argue your way out of this?
69
00:04:00,710 --> 00:04:01,170
Guards!
70
00:04:02,560 --> 00:04:03,240
Take off his official hat!
71
00:04:03,240 --> 00:04:03,560
Yes!
72
00:04:05,280 --> 00:04:06,680
It’s already fallen off.
73
00:04:08,840 --> 00:04:10,640
Then demote him and dock his pay!
74
00:04:10,910 --> 00:04:11,370
Get out!
75
00:04:12,280 --> 00:04:13,080
Your Majesty!
76
00:04:13,630 --> 00:04:14,430
Your Majesty!
77
00:04:14,630 --> 00:04:14,910
I...
78
00:04:15,240 --> 00:04:17,480
I am innocent, Your Majesty!
79
00:04:17,720 --> 00:04:20,480
Your Majesty, I am innocent!
80
00:04:21,630 --> 00:04:22,430
Your Majesty,
81
00:04:22,830 --> 00:04:24,370
for my sake,
82
00:04:24,560 --> 00:04:26,200
please spare my father!
83
00:04:26,480 --> 00:04:27,790
You dare plead for him?
84
00:04:28,600 --> 00:04:30,220
If I spare Minister Yu,
85
00:04:31,000 --> 00:04:33,060
how will the court officials view me?
86
00:04:33,470 --> 00:04:36,370
And how do I answer to the people?
87
00:04:43,390 --> 00:04:44,120
My father...
88
00:04:45,040 --> 00:04:46,770
My father only gambles for fun.
89
00:04:47,120 --> 00:04:48,900
He never took bribes!
90
00:04:49,310 --> 00:04:50,510
Stop making excuses!
91
00:04:50,510 --> 00:04:51,640
Between officials,
92
00:04:51,800 --> 00:04:53,560
there is no such thing
as gambling for fun!
93
00:04:53,560 --> 00:04:54,290
Well then...
94
00:04:54,680 --> 00:04:55,610
have some aorta.
95
00:04:57,950 --> 00:04:58,300
Here.
96
00:04:58,800 --> 00:05:00,060
Have some vegetables.
97
00:05:00,070 --> 00:05:01,470
You’ve got mouth ulcers.
98
00:05:02,870 --> 00:05:03,670
Your Majesty,
99
00:05:04,120 --> 00:05:07,320
are you really unwilling to show me
even a bit of leniency?
100
00:05:07,950 --> 00:05:09,500
I’ve already shown plenty.
101
00:05:09,950 --> 00:05:11,480
Otherwise, how would that old man
102
00:05:11,480 --> 00:05:12,670
still be alive?
103
00:05:12,870 --> 00:05:13,920
Kneeling won’t help!
104
00:05:13,920 --> 00:05:16,450
Go back to your Zhaoyang Palace
immediately!
105
00:05:16,630 --> 00:05:17,640
I'm not full yet.
106
00:05:17,800 --> 00:05:18,860
Say two more lines.
107
00:05:19,120 --> 00:05:20,390
Any more and it's just filler dialogue.
108
00:05:20,390 --> 00:05:21,360
Just pad it a bit.
109
00:05:25,720 --> 00:05:27,500
You’re heartless, cold,
110
00:05:27,710 --> 00:05:29,310
and completely unreasonable!
111
00:05:29,310 --> 00:05:31,040
How dare you call me heartless,
112
00:05:31,190 --> 00:05:31,900
cold,
113
00:05:32,430 --> 00:05:33,490
and unreasonable?
114
00:05:34,430 --> 00:05:35,560
Then answer me this.
115
00:05:35,600 --> 00:05:36,970
How am I heartless,
116
00:05:37,190 --> 00:05:37,720
cold,
117
00:05:38,310 --> 00:05:39,680
and unreasonable?
118
00:05:40,390 --> 00:05:42,270
Your Majesty, please calm your anger!
119
00:05:42,270 --> 00:05:45,190
I will never do it again!
120
00:05:45,240 --> 00:05:47,000
If there's a next time,
121
00:05:47,600 --> 00:05:49,330
I’ll wipe out your entire clan!
122
00:05:53,040 --> 00:05:54,800
I honestly can't keep up
with your performance.
123
00:05:54,800 --> 00:05:55,860
Let's call it a day.
124
00:05:58,070 --> 00:05:58,670
No, no, no!
125
00:05:59,240 --> 00:06:01,300
It's worth half my lifetime’s wages.
126
00:06:01,800 --> 00:06:03,460
No matter how expensive it is,
127
00:06:03,750 --> 00:06:05,080
can you take it with you?
128
00:06:08,040 --> 00:06:10,950
[Bilan Pavilion]
129
00:06:08,560 --> 00:06:09,420
Have you heard?
130
00:06:09,680 --> 00:06:11,210
His Majesty flew into a rage
131
00:06:11,390 --> 00:06:13,560
and kicked Consort Yu
straight out of his bedchamber,
132
00:06:13,560 --> 00:06:15,600
all the way to the palace gate.
133
00:06:17,310 --> 00:06:19,510
She has completely lost face.
134
00:06:20,360 --> 00:06:23,160
Does His Majesty really have
that kind of strength?
135
00:06:23,160 --> 00:06:24,160
Of course he does.
136
00:06:24,560 --> 00:06:26,090
I also heard that Consort Yu
137
00:06:26,120 --> 00:06:28,430
stayed at the palace gate
and refused to leave,
138
00:06:28,430 --> 00:06:30,720
begging nonstop for her gambler father.
139
00:06:31,270 --> 00:06:32,870
In a fit of anger, His Majesty
140
00:06:33,000 --> 00:06:34,570
almost had her executed.
141
00:06:37,000 --> 00:06:39,140
Sisters, where did you hear all this?
142
00:06:39,430 --> 00:06:40,140
Is it true?
143
00:06:40,240 --> 00:06:41,770
Oh, my silly little sister.
144
00:06:41,830 --> 00:06:43,000
I don't know about other things,
145
00:06:43,000 --> 00:06:44,590
but no one gathers gossips
146
00:06:44,750 --> 00:06:47,480
better than Concubine He
and Concubine Chu.
147
00:06:49,630 --> 00:06:50,950
Your Majesty!
148
00:06:52,070 --> 00:06:53,120
Your Majesty!
149
00:06:53,430 --> 00:06:55,310
Why are you so heartless?
150
00:06:56,360 --> 00:06:57,000
That is my father
151
00:06:57,000 --> 00:07:00,310
who gave birth to me, raised me,
and taught me everything!
152
00:07:01,120 --> 00:07:02,460
This time, Consort Yu
153
00:07:02,750 --> 00:07:04,000
is done for.
154
00:07:04,190 --> 00:07:06,240
She's doomed.
155
00:07:06,430 --> 00:07:07,720
Then...
156
00:07:08,030 --> 00:07:09,360
what are we waiting for?
157
00:07:10,720 --> 00:07:11,560
Sisters,
158
00:07:12,000 --> 00:07:14,260
since ancient times they’ve always said
that beauty brings ruin to nations.
159
00:07:14,260 --> 00:07:17,190
It refers to people like Noble Consort Wei
and Noble Consort Yu.
160
00:07:17,190 --> 00:07:18,480
Some rely on family background,
161
00:07:18,480 --> 00:07:19,640
others on beauty.
162
00:07:19,830 --> 00:07:22,430
But they only bewitched His Majesty
for a moment.
163
00:07:22,430 --> 00:07:24,360
And what kind of man is His Majesty?
164
00:07:24,430 --> 00:07:28,220
He cares for the realm
and holds all the people in his heart.
165
00:07:28,360 --> 00:07:30,360
How could he be so easily bewitched?
166
00:07:30,830 --> 00:07:32,070
As consorts, we must not imitate
167
00:07:32,070 --> 00:07:34,800
those demonic consorts
who bewitch their ruler.
168
00:07:34,950 --> 00:07:38,240
Instead, we should keep Great Xia in our hearts and share His Majesty’s burdens.
169
00:07:38,240 --> 00:07:39,370
Am I right, Sisters?
170
00:07:41,120 --> 00:07:42,180
Where is everyone?
171
00:07:42,270 --> 00:07:44,270
They all went
to share His Majesty’s burdens.
172
00:07:44,270 --> 00:07:45,390
Wait for me!
173
00:07:45,250 --> 00:07:48,290
[Bilan Pavilion]
174
00:07:46,510 --> 00:07:47,430
Wait for me!
175
00:07:47,600 --> 00:07:48,460
I'm coming too!
176
00:07:50,560 --> 00:07:51,760
With the likes of you,
177
00:07:53,120 --> 00:07:54,720
how can you compete with her?
178
00:08:04,800 --> 00:08:05,600
Your Majesty.
179
00:08:08,070 --> 00:08:09,470
Consort Shu just came by.
180
00:08:09,720 --> 00:08:11,160
Fearing she might disturb your rest,
181
00:08:11,160 --> 00:08:13,890
I had her tell me about
what happened to Consort Yu
182
00:08:14,230 --> 00:08:15,230
and sent her away.
183
00:08:16,830 --> 00:08:17,800
His Majesty dealt with
184
00:08:17,800 --> 00:08:19,240
Minister Yu so swiftly?
185
00:08:20,240 --> 00:08:20,830
I really
186
00:08:21,270 --> 00:08:22,680
didn’t expect it.
187
00:08:23,390 --> 00:08:25,390
What is there to be surprised about?
188
00:08:26,920 --> 00:08:29,510
A caged canary—
189
00:08:30,120 --> 00:08:31,560
once released,
190
00:08:32,030 --> 00:08:33,690
can it really fly up to the sky?
191
00:08:34,720 --> 00:08:35,520
You're right.
192
00:08:36,120 --> 00:08:37,120
Consort Yu indeed
193
00:08:37,600 --> 00:08:38,870
made a huge scene because of it.
194
00:08:38,870 --> 00:08:41,260
His Majesty scolded her harshly
195
00:08:41,510 --> 00:08:43,110
and kicked her out in the end.
196
00:08:46,200 --> 00:08:48,120
She’s too inexperienced.
197
00:08:49,080 --> 00:08:50,790
So short-sighted.
198
00:08:51,080 --> 00:08:52,410
She doesn’t understand
199
00:08:52,600 --> 00:08:54,870
how quickly a ruler’s heart can change.
200
00:08:55,200 --> 00:08:55,930
Yes, indeed.
201
00:09:00,910 --> 00:09:02,630
This Consort Shu,
202
00:09:03,480 --> 00:09:05,480
however, has real insight.
203
00:09:06,390 --> 00:09:09,720
Have her come to pay her respects to me
within the next few days.
204
00:09:09,720 --> 00:09:10,080
Yes.
205
00:09:12,910 --> 00:09:13,710
Your Majesty,
206
00:09:14,240 --> 00:09:16,900
Lord Mu
has been waiting outside for a long time.
207
00:09:17,150 --> 00:09:18,120
Let him in now.
208
00:09:22,030 --> 00:09:23,910
Greetings, Your Majesty.
209
00:09:24,000 --> 00:09:24,960
Mr. Mu,
210
00:09:25,960 --> 00:09:28,000
how did you come up with that idea?
211
00:09:28,910 --> 00:09:30,630
Mr. Mu
212
00:09:30,870 --> 00:09:32,630
is remarkably sharp.
213
00:09:34,030 --> 00:09:35,360
How did he know
214
00:09:35,720 --> 00:09:37,780
that Minister Yu loves to play cards?
215
00:09:38,150 --> 00:09:41,000
This is truly killing two birds
with one stone.
216
00:09:43,120 --> 00:09:44,120
The plan
217
00:09:44,440 --> 00:09:46,480
seems perfectly logical.
218
00:09:46,790 --> 00:09:49,200
It pleased me greatly.
219
00:09:50,790 --> 00:09:52,190
Thank you, Your Majesty.
220
00:09:52,510 --> 00:09:54,910
I only offered a small strategy.
221
00:09:55,870 --> 00:09:58,510
It was all thanks to
Consort Shu’s brother.
222
00:09:59,360 --> 00:10:01,360
The few words he spoke in court
223
00:10:02,080 --> 00:10:03,630
proved crucial.
224
00:10:04,270 --> 00:10:06,270
Not only did every word hit the mark,
225
00:10:06,720 --> 00:10:10,520
but they also blocked any possibility
of His Majesty showing mercy.
226
00:10:11,960 --> 00:10:13,270
Good.
227
00:10:14,600 --> 00:10:16,030
Useful people like him
228
00:10:16,440 --> 00:10:18,600
must be heavily rewarded.
229
00:10:20,080 --> 00:10:21,480
Thank you, Your Majesty.
230
00:10:21,910 --> 00:10:22,440
I
231
00:10:23,000 --> 00:10:24,260
will take my leave now.
232
00:10:32,080 --> 00:10:32,880
Your Majesty,
233
00:10:33,360 --> 00:10:35,240
I'll go prepare the rewards now.
234
00:10:39,840 --> 00:10:41,390
Rewards?
235
00:10:42,550 --> 00:10:44,790
To be able to serve me
236
00:10:45,150 --> 00:10:47,790
is the greatest reward of all.
237
00:10:49,790 --> 00:10:51,200
You are too honest.
238
00:10:53,840 --> 00:10:54,390
Look.
239
00:10:55,150 --> 00:10:56,960
These 3 little birds
240
00:10:56,960 --> 00:10:59,670
are becoming brighter and brighter.
241
00:11:03,600 --> 00:11:05,330
How did the Minister of Revenue
242
00:11:05,390 --> 00:11:06,390
die?
243
00:11:09,790 --> 00:11:10,720
And who arrested
244
00:11:11,360 --> 00:11:12,360
Grand Tutor Wei?
245
00:11:14,630 --> 00:11:16,230
As for General Luo's son,
246
00:11:17,550 --> 00:11:19,810
if he didn’t want him to enter the palace,
247
00:11:21,720 --> 00:11:23,320
could he really not stop him?
248
00:11:27,630 --> 00:11:29,690
The knife was handed to him by others,
249
00:11:30,480 --> 00:11:32,080
but whether he takes it or not
250
00:11:35,270 --> 00:11:37,720
ultimately depends on His Majesty’s will.
251
00:11:38,960 --> 00:11:40,480
His Highness, you mean...
252
00:11:40,960 --> 00:11:42,390
Our Emperor
253
00:11:43,840 --> 00:11:46,480
has always been unpredictable.
254
00:11:48,750 --> 00:11:51,720
Still, I must remind you all
255
00:11:52,840 --> 00:11:55,670
not to be fooled by his mad-king facade.
256
00:11:59,150 --> 00:12:00,080
Especially now,
257
00:12:02,150 --> 00:12:03,480
in this palace,
258
00:12:05,670 --> 00:12:07,750
he is no longer alone.
259
00:12:21,600 --> 00:12:23,530
Ever since the fire at the library,
260
00:12:25,910 --> 00:12:28,270
His Highness
has not entered the palace again.
261
00:12:28,270 --> 00:12:29,910
I went to inquire at his residence.
262
00:12:29,910 --> 00:12:31,150
They only said
263
00:12:31,200 --> 00:12:33,030
His Highness
has been busy with official duties.
264
00:12:33,030 --> 00:12:34,750
I then asked whether His Highness
265
00:12:34,750 --> 00:12:37,010
had seen the letter in the brocade pouch,
266
00:12:37,270 --> 00:12:38,530
and they gave no reply.
267
00:12:43,960 --> 00:12:46,690
Your Highness,
with Consort Yu’s father demoted
268
00:12:47,080 --> 00:12:48,000
and she herself
269
00:12:48,000 --> 00:12:49,930
fallen out of His Majesty's favor,
270
00:12:50,000 --> 00:12:51,240
all other consorts
271
00:12:51,300 --> 00:12:54,000
are doing everything they can
to vie for His Majesty’s attention.
272
00:12:54,000 --> 00:12:55,200
Let them fight for it.
273
00:12:56,600 --> 00:12:57,390
I don't care.
274
00:13:00,720 --> 00:13:02,200
Yu Wanyin was right.
275
00:13:03,170 --> 00:13:03,910
Here,
276
00:13:05,090 --> 00:13:07,150
a man can lift you to the heavens today
277
00:13:08,630 --> 00:13:10,430
and cast you into hell tomorrow.
278
00:13:11,440 --> 00:13:13,840
Their love and hate
are but a fleeting whim.
279
00:13:14,790 --> 00:13:15,650
Your Highness.
280
00:13:19,790 --> 00:13:22,390
Your Highness,
Eunuch An is here with a decree.
281
00:13:34,840 --> 00:13:35,790
Concubine Xie.
282
00:13:37,120 --> 00:13:40,720
His Majesty decrees
that
Concubine Xie is to attend him tonight.
283
00:13:41,540 --> 00:13:43,470
Congratulations, Your Highness.
284
00:13:43,670 --> 00:13:44,360
What?
285
00:13:45,250 --> 00:13:46,910
He wants me to attend him tonight?
286
00:13:46,910 --> 00:13:47,440
What?
287
00:13:48,200 --> 00:13:49,270
Let her attend me?
288
00:13:49,670 --> 00:13:50,030
Yes.
289
00:13:52,200 --> 00:13:54,210
You want me to find another woman...
290
00:13:54,480 --> 00:13:55,800
to serve me in bed?
291
00:13:57,510 --> 00:13:58,270
Keep it down.
292
00:13:58,480 --> 00:13:59,670
What's going on inside?
293
00:13:59,670 --> 00:14:02,080
His Majesty and Noble Consort Yu
seem to have a quarrel.
294
00:14:02,080 --> 00:14:02,900
A quarrel?
295
00:14:06,270 --> 00:14:09,730
Why does it feel like I'm forcing
a good boy into prostitution?
296
00:14:12,080 --> 00:14:14,120
It's not like she'll actually
serve you in bed.
297
00:14:14,120 --> 00:14:15,000
I just figured out
298
00:14:15,000 --> 00:14:17,260
how to get the list of scholars
out of her.
299
00:14:17,960 --> 00:14:18,480
Mr. Bei.
300
00:14:20,270 --> 00:14:20,750
Mr. Bei.
301
00:14:21,720 --> 00:14:23,240
You've roamed the world for so long
302
00:14:23,240 --> 00:14:25,040
and lived among the common folk.
303
00:14:25,150 --> 00:14:26,350
Do you know of any drug
304
00:14:26,440 --> 00:14:28,440
that can make someone hallucinate?
305
00:14:28,910 --> 00:14:30,200
You want to drug Dan?
306
00:14:31,240 --> 00:14:32,040
No, no.
307
00:14:32,470 --> 00:14:34,000
How could I do that to CEO...
308
00:14:35,530 --> 00:14:37,470
I am using it for a proper purpose.
309
00:14:38,200 --> 00:14:40,000
I need someone to tell the truth.
310
00:14:40,100 --> 00:14:40,790
Simple.
311
00:14:41,270 --> 00:14:42,490
Get him drunk.
312
00:14:43,240 --> 00:14:43,670
Right.
313
00:14:45,200 --> 00:14:46,600
Drink makes people talk.
314
00:14:49,510 --> 00:14:51,080
But what if she remembers everything
315
00:14:51,080 --> 00:14:52,550
the next morning?
316
00:14:53,080 --> 00:14:54,390
That’s even easier.
317
00:14:55,440 --> 00:14:56,570
Make her drink more.
318
00:14:59,630 --> 00:15:02,550
You know I speed-read the book,
319
00:15:02,720 --> 00:15:04,480
so I don't remember the scholars' names
at all.
320
00:15:04,480 --> 00:15:05,720
But Xie Yong'er does.
321
00:15:06,600 --> 00:15:07,550
She went through the entire
322
00:15:07,550 --> 00:15:10,840
"A thousand trees blossoms at night
in the East" carefully.
323
00:15:10,840 --> 00:15:12,240
When those talented and virtuous scholars
324
00:15:12,240 --> 00:15:13,200
died unjustly,
325
00:15:13,670 --> 00:15:15,150
it was truly heartbreaking.
326
00:15:15,150 --> 00:15:17,270
It must have made a deep impression
on her.
327
00:15:17,270 --> 00:15:19,400
And when the next imperial exam comes,
328
00:15:19,480 --> 00:15:23,120
the list of candidates Prince Duan
is going to poach will come from her.
329
00:15:23,120 --> 00:15:24,360
Stop grunting.
330
00:15:24,630 --> 00:15:25,390
Why don’t you...
331
00:15:25,390 --> 00:15:26,520
think it over again?
332
00:15:31,120 --> 00:15:33,320
Besides,
I’ve already acted without consulting you
333
00:15:33,320 --> 00:15:34,920
and had Eunuch An notify her.
334
00:15:36,200 --> 00:15:36,600
You...
335
00:15:37,390 --> 00:15:38,720
So, for the greater good,
336
00:15:38,720 --> 00:15:40,050
make a small sacrifice.
337
00:15:46,910 --> 00:15:47,910

338
00:15:50,630 --> 00:15:52,390

544

If I want to convince them to work for me
before the imperial exams,
566
00:25:41,030 --> 00:25:42,630
I need to come up with an idea.

I worked so hard,
577
00:26:02,510 --> 00:26:05,440
but why doesn’t Prince Duan trust me?
578
00:26:06,440 --> 00:26:08,300
I was the one who gave him the idea.
579
00:26:08,790 --> 00:26:11,190
I told him to poison
Deputy Commander Zhao,
580
00:26:12,030 --> 00:26:13,960
but in the end, he didn’t believe me
581
00:26:14,350 --> 00:26:16,480
and poisoned the guy's horse instead!
582
00:26:18,440 --> 00:26:19,370
What did you say?
583
00:26:19,550 --> 00:26:20,070
Yes,

I admit it.
585
00:26:21,880 --> 00:26:23,740
His idea worked better than mine.
586
00:26:24,200 --> 00:26:26,720
But I was following your storyline.
587
00:26:27,110 --> 00:26:28,720
Why did he change the script?
588
00:26:29,590 --> 00:26:30,390
That's right.
589
00:26:31,720 --> 00:26:32,510
In the original story, Prince Duan
590
00:26:32,510 --> 00:26:34,370
did follow Xie Yong'er’s advice,
591
00:26:34,440 --> 00:26:35,640
using an aphrodisiac
592
00:26:35,750 --> 00:26:38,680
to get Deputy Commander Zhao to harass
the Imperial Guard Commander’s concubine,
593
00:26:38,680 --> 00:26:40,590
causing the two of them to become enemies.
594
00:26:40,590 --> 00:26:42,310
In the end, for self-preservation,
Deputy Commander Zhao
595
00:26:42,310 --> 00:26:44,170
allied himself with Prince Duan.
596
00:26:45,000 --> 00:26:45,400
But...
597
00:26:46,960 --> 00:26:48,360
why, in Xu Yao's records,
598
00:26:49,200 --> 00:26:50,530
is was a different plan?
599
00:26:51,400 --> 00:26:52,640

and let the crazed horse trample the late Emperor’s ceremonial carriage set.
602
00:26:56,110 --> 00:26:59,440
That set was a gift bestowed on
Prince Duan by the late Emperor.
603
00:26:59,440 --> 00:27:01,000
Destroying an imperial gift
is a far graver crime
604
00:27:01,000 --> 00:27:03,240
than harassing a commander’s concubine,
605
00:27:03,240 --> 00:27:05,310
enough to frighten
Deputy Commander Zhao out of his wits.
606
00:27:05,310 --> 00:27:05,910
Could it be
607
00:27:06,590 --> 00:27:09,240
that Prince Duan
has deviated from the original script
608
00:27:09,240 --> 00:27:10,970
and developed a will of his own?
609
00:27:11,110 --> 00:27:13,000
And that wasn't the first time.
610
00:27:14,000 --> 00:27:14,800
If he

then won’t I
