Beauties.

-Your Majesty. -Your Majesty, come here.

Come here, Your Majesty.

-I'm right here. -Where are you?

Catch me.

I'll surely catch you.

Come here.

Over here.

[Li Jiao, Biantang Emperor]

You won't catch me, Your Majesty.

Your Majesty.

-Your Majesty. -Hurry up.

Come here,

beauties.

You run really fast.

Your Majesty, I'm here.

[REBIRTH]

[Episode 6]

[Biantang Empress]

Spare us, Your Majesty!

-Spare us, Your Majesty! -Spare us, Your Majesty!

-Spare us, Your Majesty! -Spare us, Your Majesty!

-Spare us, Your Majesty! -Spare us, Your Majesty!

-Spare us! -Spare us!

It's not your fault.

You couldn't disobey the Emperor's orders.

Chief Fang,

let them leave.

The floor is too cold.

Kneeling too long will harm their health.

Yes,

Your Majesty.

Get up now.

-Thank you, Your Majesty. -Thank you, Your Majesty.

Physician,

how is His Majesty?

Your Majesty,

His Majesty has liver qi stagnation,

poor blood circulation,

and cold invasion,

which caused sudden hematemesis.

Is there a cure?

Yes,

but His Majesty needs to drink less wine

and rest more,

so he can recover quickly.

Go and arrange the medicinal diet.

Yes.

Your Majesty.

Did you hear, Your Majesty?

The physician said

it's not a big problem.

It's probably related to the cold weather recently.

Just rest, Your Majesty.

Do not overthink or overwork yourself.

All these years,

you've shielded me from so much,

running back and forth between the imperial court and the harem.

It's been really hard for you.

Your Majesty, to share your burdens

is my blessing.

Hardships are not worth mentioning.

It's been hard for you.

His Majesty's health

is getting worse day by day.

He vomited blood again today.

Then what do you plan to do, Your Majesty?

The two beauties you sent to His Majesty

are very good.

He fell in love at first sight.

Continue to select some beautiful women

and send them into the palace,

just to make His Majesty happy.

I understand.

[Zhan Ziyu, Empress's Male Favorite]

Your Majesty,

there is another thing.

His Highness has returned from Great Yan.

And

he brought a woman of unknown origin with him.

Who is she?

I do not know yet,

but it is better to be careful.

After all, the Crown Prince is growing more powerful by the day.

If he develops disloyal thoughts towards you,

that would not be good.

Then you will act on my behalf

to find out her identity.

Yes.

You have accompanied me for 3 days.

Why don't you ask who I am

and why I wanted to jump into the lake?

In this vast world,

everyone has their own sorrows.

If you don't want to say, I won't ask.

You remind me of someone.

That person

must be very important to you.

Yes.

Very important.

But he never wants to see me again,

and I can't forget him.

Then can you temporarily treat me as that person,

until you truly forget him

and are no longer in pain?

Can I?

Can I forget him?

As long as you are willing,

I can always accompany you.

[Crown Prince's Mansion, Biantang]

Come.

Careful.

Here, hold this.

Li Ce.

This is the Crown Prince's Mansion?

Why does it feel so weird?

Qiao,

I can't explain it in one sentence.

I'll explain it to you later.

Follow me first.

Hurry.

Come in first.

Qiao,

these are all the beautiful clothes

I brought back from my travels.

So revealing.

Unbearable to look at.

These clothes don't even cover the body.

I can't wear them.

Qiao,

I didn't mean that.

It's an emergency.

I'll explain it to you later, okay?

Come.

Your Highness,

it's bad.

We just entered the mansion,

and Her Majesty already knows.

Someone from the palace has arrived,

asking you to enter the palace immediately to pay your respects.

I've been away for months,

but Mother

is as well-informed as ever.

It doesn't matter.

I will go right now.

Okay.

Here, Qiao.

Your Highness.

Remember to change your clothes.

Greetings, Your Highness.

I'm Zhan Ziyu, Grand Minister of Rites,

acting on Her Majesty's oral decree.

His Highness has been traveling for a long time.

Her Majesty misses him very much.

She personally sent us

to present His Highness with 10 pieces of deer skin glue,

5 boxes of Baiyi incense,

and 5 wild ginsengs,

to condition His Highness's body.

These items are all personally bestowed by Her Majesty.

You must deliver them to His Highness

and place them properly inside the hall.

If there is any mistake,

you will not be forgiven.

-Yes. -Yes.

Who is in there?

Your Highness,

this person looks a bit unfamiliar.

You are from Fengyi Palace?

Why have I never seen you at Her Majesty's place?

Your Highness,

I am a subordinate of Lord Zhan.

Your Highness, Your Highness!

I have a stomachache.

I need to return to the mansion.

Catch the assassin!

An assassin has indeed infiltrated the Crown Prince's Mansion

to harm His Highness.

Arrest this assassin!

Who are you?

What are you doing?

This is the Crown Prince's Mansion.

I am the Crown Prince's person.

The Crown Prince's person?

I often visit the Crown Prince's Mansion.

Why have I never met you?

The Crown Prince went north for a tour.

It is not surprising that he brought back a woman.

And who are you?

Does the Crown Prince need to report

where he goes and what he does to you?

In that case,

please enter the palace

and explain the whole story to Her Majesty with the Crown Prince.

Take her!

She is not an assassin.

She is Princess Fu.

Your Highness, didn't you enter the palace to pay respects to Her Majesty?

Why are you here?

I just returned to Tangjing today.

I suddenly had a stomachache

and feared being disrespectful to my mother.

So I turned back halfway.

Unexpectedly, I ran into you

having a misunderstanding with Princess Fu.

Princess Fu?

Lord Zhan,

this woman is not the assassin you speak of,

but the daughter of the Prince of Pingnan

I found after going through many hardships,

Princess Fu.

Seven years ago,

the Prince of Pingnan went to war with his family

and died in battle.

Princess Fu was separated from them ever since,

and there was no news of her.

My trip to Great Yan this time

was exactly because

I heard of Princess Fu's whereabouts,

and I went specifically to bring her back.

At that time, Lord Zhan, you

hadn't yet entered the palace to serve Her Majesty,

so you know very little about this matter.

Why don't you

go ask my mother?

She'll naturally

clear your doubts.

Your Highness, given what you said,

I will return to the palace

and ask Her Majesty for clarification.

Excuse me.

Let's go.

How is he?

Wake up, wake up.

He's dying.

General Cheng.

We have lost our way.

If we keep going,

we probably won't be able to hold on,

and none of us will make it back alive.

Are you sure it's just ahead?

It's just ahead.

The Altar of Fire at the top of Mount Hei is right ahead.

As long as we place His Majesty on the Altar of Fire,

His Majesty will be protected by the gods of Great Yan

and will surely come back to life.

Keep moving forward.

Yes.

This is the place.

This is the Altar of Fire.

His Majesty will be saved.

-His Majesty! -His Majesty!

Who was that eunuch just now?

How dare he be so bossy

in the Crown Prince's Mansion?

Zhan Ziyu is not a eunuch.

He is the Grand Minister of Rites,

a close minister to my mother.

Most of the things he does

are my mother's ideas.

Your mother?

Your Highness.

Your Highness.

Your Highness.

Your Highness.

-Your Highness. -Your Highness.

-Your Highness. -Your Highness.

You're all here.

-Your Highness. -Your Highness.

Why didn't you tell me you were back?

Your Highness,

did you forget about me?

Of course not.

Then look at this.

This is the sachet I made for you

when you were away.

Smell it.

Your Highness.

Your Highness, you must be tired.

Let's go inside and sit down.

-Your Highness. -Your Highness.

-Your Highness. -Your Highness.

-Your Highness. -Your Highness.

-Your Highness. -Here.

This is the shawl I made for you

when you were away.

I designed it myself.

You can't buy it outside.

I also made one for myself.

We can wear them together later.

Beauty.

Why are you crying?

I saw that your face was not as rosy as before.

You must have been exhausted in Great Yan.

It broke my heart to see you like this.

Who is she?

-Who is she? -Who is she?

-Your Highness. -Your Highness.

She... she...

She is...

Who are you?

Tell us the truth.

She's a vixen.

-Little vixen. -Little vixen.

-Your Highness. -Your Highness.

Since you're unfaithful

and have a little vixen,

we will let them be.

If we are here,

the little vixen can't be.

If she is here, we won't be.

Your Highness,

you can go be a couple with the little vixen!

Sisters,

let's go.

[Minglu, Chief Maid of the Crown Prince's Mansion]

By the way,

where is Lady Ziming?

Why haven't I seen her since I returned?

-Lady Ziming? -Lady Ziming?

Your Highness,

she hasn't seen you for days.

She worried too much

and suffered a heart illness.

A heart illness?

I see.

She must be missing me.

Tell your lady

that I will go see her tonight.

This is the room prepared for you.

Before His Highness returned,

he had sent someone to arrange this.

But it was prepared in a hurry.

I will come to tidy it up tomorrow.

Please thank the Crown Prince for me.

I have always preferred things to be simple.

This is enough.

May I ask how I should address you?

I am the chief maid of this mansion.

If you need anything, Princess,

just tell the maids,

and I will prepare it.

If not,

you won't need to address me normally.

What Princess Fu?

Princess Fu has been dead for a long time.

Seven years ago, the Prince of Pingnan went against me

and publicly opposed my involvement in state affairs at court.

So I had His Majesty send him to fight on the southern border,

and he sacrificed his life for the country.

Princess Fu and Princess Consort of Pingnan

also went to the southern border with him.

They have long been dead, leaving no trace.

Could it be that the woman is not Princess Fu?

Then why did the Crown Prince...

The Crown Prince is a womanizer.

It's not surprising

that he would just find any woman.

But you said this woman knows martial arts,

and the Crown Prince even defied me for her.

That is somewhat unexpected.

Your Majesty, do you mean

that the woman's identity is suspicious?

His Majesty's health won't last for many more days.

Once he dies,

whether Li Ce remains the Crown Prince or is deposed

will be entirely up to me.

At this critical juncture,

no matter who this woman is,

she is of utmost importance.

If she is just a romantic affair,

we will report it to the Emperor

and make it known to the whole imperial court.

If there really is a hidden agenda,

don't blame me

for not showing mercy to my own flesh and blood.

I understand.

I will keep a close eye on the Crown Prince's Mansion for you.

It's getting cold again.

You once promised me

that you'd watch the snow with me every year.

[Spirit Tablet of the Late Crown Prince Maocheng]

The snow is about to fall,

but you're not by my side.

It is you, the Emperor, who broke your promise

and killed Crown Prince Maocheng.

Since you are so heartless,

don't blame me for being cruel.

Princess Fu.

It's so late.

Crown Prince, shouldn't you be going

to that sick lady's place?

What are you talking about, Princess Fu?

I have always loved you the most.

I will stay in your room tonight.

Ouch!

Princess,

what are you doing?

Let me ask you,

who is Princess Fu?

Why did you say I am her?

Careful.

Walls have ears.

Stop being so mysterious.

Fu,

don't be angry.

They...

They were all rewarded by my mother

while you were away.

Aren't you back now?

What's going on?

I'll make a long story short.

I am

a useless Crown Prince with no power.

Although there are many beauties in this mansion,

they were all given to me by my mother.

Normally,

their duty

is not only to entertain me

and make me indulge in luxury

and sensual pleasures

but also to report my every word and deed

to my mother.

As for Fu,

she was the princess of the Prince of Pingnan

and someone I used to like.

Now,

she is no longer alive.

You do look a bit like her.

I borrowed her identity for you

to protect you as much as possible.

In that case,

I misunderstood you.

Since you are pretending to be Princess Fu,

from now on,

I will have to stay here for the night.

You have no idea.

What I fear the most

is being with them at night.

But

you're here now.

What do you mean?

Being with you—

Princess, Princess!

Be gentle!

Princess, it hurts!

It hurts!

Let me do it.

It's getting late.

Are we still hitting the road?

Lord Zhao finally found Chu Qiao.

We must travel overnight

to pass this news to Lord Muhe.

We can't delay.

Sir,

the bill.

Who are you?

What do you want?

If you dare tell what you know

to the Muhe family,

I'll make sure you never speak again.

Zhuge Yue. Zhuge Yue.

Zhuge Yue.

Zhuge Yue. Zhuge Yue.

Zhuge Yue.

Zhuge Yue, where are you going?

Don't go.

Zhuge Yue, don't go.

Zhuge Yue. Zhuge Yue.

Where have you gone?

Come back.

Zhuge Yue.

Zhuge Yue!

Fu.

Fu.

What's wrong?

Was I just

talking in my sleep?

Just now,

you kept calling Zhuge Yue's name.

I was afraid someone would hear,

so I woke you up.

What did you dream about?

Nothing.

Ever since I woke up at the frozen lake,

my dreams have been mostly the same.

Who is it?

Qiao.

You are indeed unmatched in martial arts

and dashingly cool.

Shut up.

This hidden weapon is poisonous.

What happened?

In this mansion,

someone wants my life.

Hansha Darts...

They're the hidden weapon of the Muhe family of Great Yong.

I'm afraid

they didn't come for you.

[Zuiyue Restaurant]

Guests.

Remember,

sometimes hearing is more real than seeing.

When you can't see,

you can actually find what you want.

Great,

[Zhao Kuo, Envoy of Great Yong]

you delivered yourself to me.

Chu Qiao,

I knew you were still alive.

I just didn't expect

that after hiding in the Crown Prince's Mansion,

you would dare to come meet me alone.

If I hadn't shown up,

would you really have spared me?

You are right.

Back then, you and Yan Xun joined forces

to kill Young Master Muhe Xifeng

and took the opportunity to bring down the Wei family.

Guess who in Great Yong

wants you dead more, the Muhe family

or the Wei family?

It's a pity that your worthless life

isn't enough to repay Young Master Muhe.

I will kill you first

and then kill that scoundrel Yan Xun!

Aren't you the most capable general in Great Yan?

Aren't you the invincible leader

of the Xiuli Army?

I will send you to hell right now!

Xing.

Do you know

the Xiuli Army died in battle,

and Miss Zhong was also killed by Cheng Yuan?

I know.

Do you know

I almost thought

that I got Zhong Yu,

the Xiuli Army,

and the person I care about most killed?

Do you still remember the day I left for Great Yan?

You told me

you needed me.

Now,

Zhuge Yue,

can you stay for me?

General Huan, you're tired from putting down the rebellion.

Go back and rest.

Are you sure it was a woman who entered your room?

-As the King commands! -As the King commands!

I am already living like a ghost.

What does it matter if I die?

She looks a bit like...

the escaped slave Great Yan and Great Yong are hunting down,

Chu Qiao.
