(I must have lost my mind.)

17
00:02:44,900 --> 00:02:46,020
(Why is she here?)

18
00:03:04,270 --> 00:03:05,110
What a surprise.

19
00:03:05,670 --> 00:03:07,270
To see General Duan here as well.

20
00:03:09,550 --> 00:03:10,390
What a coincidence.

21
00:03:10,900 --> 00:03:12,110
Vice Minister Fang is here too.

22
00:03:17,180 --> 00:03:18,230
I will not disturb you two, my lords.

23
00:03:18,550 --> 00:03:19,740
Suyi will take her leave first.

24
00:03:22,860 --> 00:03:23,700
It seems

25
00:03:24,420 --> 00:03:25,390
that General Duan

26
00:03:25,700 --> 00:03:26,900
has already taken a liking to

27
00:03:26,900 --> 00:03:27,740
Minister Wang's daughter.

28
00:03:29,420 --> 00:03:30,550
As for whom I favor,

29
00:03:31,420 --> 00:03:32,510
is that what you want to know,

30
00:03:33,460 --> 00:03:34,460
or is it the Duke

31
00:03:34,460 --> 00:03:35,300
who wishes to know?

32
00:03:35,510 --> 00:03:36,350
What do you think?

33
00:03:37,350 --> 00:03:38,190
General Duan,

34
00:03:44,550 --> 00:03:45,390
Fang Xianye,

35
00:03:45,580 --> 00:03:46,700
so you truly mean no good.

36
00:03:47,070 --> 00:03:47,950
You want to steal from my Third Brother

37
00:03:47,950 --> 00:03:48,790
his marriage selection match.

38
00:03:49,420 --> 00:03:51,020
You, come with me.

39
00:03:51,860 --> 00:03:53,180
Third Brother, go after her now.

40
00:03:53,510 --> 00:03:54,350
Go on, quickly.

41
00:03:55,580 --> 00:03:56,420
Come here.

42
00:04:29,990 --> 00:04:30,830
Fang Xianye.

43
00:04:31,150 --> 00:04:32,620
Don't you dare hinder Third Brother.

44
00:04:41,590 --> 00:04:42,430
Miss Duan,

45
00:04:42,620 --> 00:04:43,790
Neither is wed,

46
00:04:44,060 --> 00:04:45,060
so how am I in the way?

47
00:04:45,620 --> 00:04:46,550
Besides, Miss Wang

48
00:04:46,860 --> 00:04:48,470
may not favor Young Master Duan.

49
00:04:49,260 --> 00:04:50,100
Third Brother's affairs

50
00:04:50,110 --> 00:04:51,230
are not yours to meddle in.

51
00:04:52,110 --> 00:04:53,790
Third Brother is far better than you.

52
00:04:54,230 --> 00:04:55,620
Even if Miss Suyi rejects Third Brother,

53
00:04:55,620 --> 00:04:56,820
she still would never choose you.

54
00:04:57,060 --> 00:04:58,550
Nothing is settled yet,

55
00:04:59,180 --> 00:05:00,990
so why speak with such certainty,

56
00:05:01,550 --> 00:05:02,390
I...

57
00:05:05,560 --> 00:05:06,420
Anyway,

58
00:05:06,420 --> 00:05:07,740
stop hindering Third Brother.

59
00:05:11,030 --> 00:05:11,870
Do not be upset, miss.

60
00:05:12,420 --> 00:05:13,260
Then I,

61
00:05:13,420 --> 00:05:14,550
shall take my leave, Miss Duan.

62
00:05:14,550 --> 00:05:15,390
strolling through the garden.

63
00:05:15,590 --> 00:05:16,790
- I
- shall take my leave first.

64
00:05:20,060 --> 00:05:20,900
Wait.

65
00:05:23,620 --> 00:05:25,110
How do you know the Six-Petal Flower Knot?

66
00:05:27,030 --> 00:05:28,860
Only my Third Brother can tie that knot.

67
00:05:31,110 --> 00:05:32,350
Why are you so annoying?

68
00:05:32,710 --> 00:05:33,910
Why do you copy my
Third Brother in all things?

69
00:05:34,380 --> 00:05:36,180
You copy him in marriage selection,

70
00:05:36,500 --> 00:05:37,710
And now even his flower knot.

71
00:05:46,940 --> 00:05:48,030
You do have a sharp memory.

72
00:06:00,470 --> 00:06:01,350
Little trinkets.

73
00:06:01,350 --> 00:06:03,300
Come look, come see.

74
00:06:12,150 --> 00:06:13,380
Weren't you at the Gong Yan?

75
00:06:13,820 --> 00:06:14,820
Why are you back so soon?

76
00:06:15,670 --> 00:06:17,500
I already did what my old man asked.

77
00:06:17,500 --> 00:06:18,340
So I left.

78
00:06:19,230 --> 00:06:20,070
What are you doing here?

79
00:06:21,180 --> 00:06:22,020
I...

80
00:06:24,550 --> 00:06:25,620
I went to Duan Mansion for Senior Brother.

81
00:06:26,180 --> 00:06:27,110
I heard he had gone to the banquet.

82
00:06:27,550 --> 00:06:28,940
I left word at Yuzao Pleasure House.

83
00:06:29,940 --> 00:06:31,060
Senior Brother is still not out.

84
00:06:31,300 --> 00:06:32,500
Go wait for him. I'm leaving.

85
00:06:41,790 --> 00:06:42,910
Why are you following me?

86
00:06:43,060 --> 00:06:43,990
Aren't you waiting for Senior Brother?

87
00:06:44,380 --> 00:06:45,220
He

88
00:06:45,710 --> 00:06:47,180
likely won't be out anytime soon.

89
00:06:47,470 --> 00:06:48,470
I'd better head back first.

90
00:06:49,670 --> 00:06:50,670
Your home is that way.

91
00:06:55,500 --> 00:06:56,940
I can get back from this way too.

92
00:07:05,740 --> 00:07:06,910
How was today's Gong Yan?

93
00:07:08,420 --> 00:07:09,260
Not much to speak of.

94
00:07:09,790 --> 00:07:11,470
Did you meet anyone

95
00:07:11,470 --> 00:07:12,310
interesting there,

96
00:07:12,550 --> 00:07:13,390
or see anything unusual?

97
00:07:14,060 --> 00:07:14,900
No.

98
00:07:16,940 --> 00:07:18,150
That Gong Yan was terribly dull.

99
00:07:19,030 --> 00:07:20,300
Let's go drink at Yuzao Pleasure House.

100
00:07:21,110 --> 00:07:21,950
Sure.

101
00:07:22,320 --> 00:07:23,180
I heard Yuzao Pleasure House

102
00:07:23,180 --> 00:07:24,710
A new batch of fine wine just arrived.

103
00:07:25,710 --> 00:07:26,860
With your poor head for drink,

104
00:07:26,860 --> 00:07:27,700
you still know Yuzao Pleasure House?

105
00:07:27,710 --> 00:07:28,860
What fine wine would you know there?

106
00:07:28,990 --> 00:07:30,260
I kept an eye out just for you.

107
00:07:31,060 --> 00:07:31,910
That's what true brothers are for.

108
00:07:32,300 --> 00:07:33,140
Come on.

109
00:07:34,590 --> 00:07:35,820
Move, move. Hurry up.

110
00:07:41,500 --> 00:07:42,340
- Brother Zhou.
- Brother Li.

111
00:07:42,490 --> 00:07:43,350
Brother Zhao.

112
00:07:43,350 --> 00:07:44,190
It has been far too long.

113
00:07:44,200 --> 00:07:45,050
Indeed, far too long.

114
00:07:45,500 --> 00:07:46,380
How have you been of late?

115
00:07:46,820 --> 00:07:47,670
I have been well enough.

116
00:07:47,680 --> 00:07:49,260
A few days ago, I read your prose.

117
00:07:50,860 --> 00:07:52,470
You honor me. You honor me.

118
00:08:42,780 --> 00:08:43,620
Old Ancestor.

119
00:08:44,020 --> 00:08:44,860
You have returned.

120
00:08:45,350 --> 00:08:46,230
Did you gain anything from it?

121
00:08:46,740 --> 00:08:48,140
Today, at the Gong Yan,

122
00:08:48,430 --> 00:08:49,780
I have left marks on those
with deep obsessions.

123
00:08:49,780 --> 00:08:50,620
They now bear my marks.

124
00:08:51,310 --> 00:08:52,710
Use your station as Imperial Preceptor

125
00:08:52,710 --> 00:08:53,620
to draw close to them.

126
00:08:54,430 --> 00:08:55,270
Gather their obsessions.

127
00:08:57,740 --> 00:08:58,580
Yes.

128
00:08:59,310 --> 00:09:00,470
When you approach them,

129
00:09:00,470 --> 00:09:01,500
look into them with great care.

130
00:09:02,660 --> 00:09:04,470
Song Xingyu will likely, as before,

131
00:09:04,780 --> 00:09:06,660
forge a pact with such people.

132
00:09:07,230 --> 00:09:08,710
If we find this Gong Yan,

133
00:09:09,740 --> 00:09:11,140
we may find Song Xingyu.

134
00:09:13,140 --> 00:09:14,190
Old Ancestor,

135
00:09:14,710 --> 00:09:16,260
you truly have a way with things.

136
00:09:19,830 --> 00:09:20,670
Old Ancestor,

137
00:09:20,830 --> 00:09:21,830
did you see it today?

138
00:09:22,260 --> 00:09:23,310
That Duan Xu,

139
00:09:23,710 --> 00:09:25,590
he was so attentive to that young lady.

140
00:09:26,190 --> 00:09:27,830
What was that young lady called again?

141
00:09:27,830 --> 00:09:28,670
Her name is

142
00:09:32,430 --> 00:09:33,500
Old Ancestor,

143
00:09:35,020 --> 00:09:36,020
isn't this the life

144
00:09:36,020 --> 00:09:37,190
you wanted for him?

145
00:09:37,190 --> 00:09:38,780
Why take it out on me?

146
00:09:38,780 --> 00:09:40,310
Go do what you should do.

147
00:09:41,780 --> 00:09:43,260
Less talk about the rest.

148
00:09:45,430 --> 00:09:46,270
Yes.

149
00:10:14,140 --> 00:10:15,140
Third Brother, I'm coming in.

150
00:10:29,430 --> 00:10:30,270
Third Brother,

151
00:10:31,380 --> 00:10:33,070
from how you reacted today,

152
00:10:33,260 --> 00:10:34,660
have you taken to Wang Suyi?

153
00:10:36,990 --> 00:10:38,190
Can you help me meet her?

154
00:10:41,110 --> 00:10:42,660
I... Miss Wang and I

155
00:10:42,900 --> 00:10:44,260
do have some acquaintance.

156
00:10:44,590 --> 00:10:45,860
The Embroidery Society I run,

157
00:10:45,860 --> 00:10:46,860
she often attends.

158
00:10:48,430 --> 00:10:50,310
I still owe her a

159
00:10:50,620 --> 00:10:51,900
Suzhou Embroidered Round Fan.

160
00:10:51,900 --> 00:10:52,860
I'll deliver it tomorrow

161
00:10:58,350 --> 00:10:59,830
and ask her for you on the way.

162
00:10:59,830 --> 00:11:00,830
This Venerable One is here.

163
00:11:01,830 --> 00:11:02,670
Where are you?

164
00:11:03,140 --> 00:11:03,980
Old Ancestor,

165
00:11:04,350 --> 00:11:05,620
I am truly sorry.

166
00:11:06,500 --> 00:11:08,900
I still have to wait for the medicine.

167
00:11:09,830 --> 00:11:11,260
Please look around first. I'll come soon.

168
00:11:11,470 --> 00:11:13,070
You would make this Venerable One wait?

169
00:11:13,780 --> 00:11:15,350
I am innocent too.

170
00:11:16,260 --> 00:11:17,140
It is all Ziji's fault.

171
00:11:17,540 --> 00:11:19,190
If I skip the medicine, she won't let me out.

172
00:11:20,620 --> 00:11:21,500
I'll be there at once.

173
00:11:21,990 --> 00:11:22,900
Old Ancestor, look,

174
00:11:23,350 --> 00:11:24,430
she's calling me again.

175
00:11:24,430 --> 00:11:25,270
I'm going now.

176
00:11:34,380 --> 00:11:35,220
Forget it.

177
00:11:35,950 --> 00:11:37,070
I'll count this as a day off.

178
00:11:38,900 --> 00:11:39,830
Here, hold it tight.

179
00:11:39,830 --> 00:11:40,670
Thanks.

180
00:11:50,190 --> 00:11:51,620
Miss, would you like a sugar figurine?

181
00:11:53,590 --> 00:11:54,430
I can make one on the spot.

182
00:11:57,590 --> 00:11:58,950
Baskets for sale, baskets for sale.

183
00:11:59,860 --> 00:12:01,590
Sachet ornaments.

184
00:12:21,260 --> 00:12:22,100
Welcome inside, honored guest.

185
00:12:23,140 --> 00:12:23,980
Your wine. Please enjoy.

186
00:12:25,950 --> 00:12:26,830
Young Master Duan.

187
00:12:27,350 --> 00:12:28,830
You finally made it.

188
00:12:29,310 --> 00:12:30,230
Come.

189
00:12:30,230 --> 00:12:31,070
Young Master Wang.

190
00:12:31,780 --> 00:12:32,620
Miss Wang.

191
00:12:33,190 --> 00:12:34,030
Sorry to keep you waiting.

192
00:12:35,620 --> 00:12:36,470
I was wondering

193
00:12:36,660 --> 00:12:37,500
why Miss Wang would

194
00:12:37,500 --> 00:12:38,430
ask to meet at Yuzao Pleasure House.

195
00:12:38,800 --> 00:12:39,660
So it was Young Master Wang

196
00:12:39,660 --> 00:12:40,540
who chose this place.

197
00:12:41,500 --> 00:12:42,660
Bringing your younger sister here,

198
00:12:43,230 --> 00:12:44,140
are you trying to embarrass me?

199
00:12:44,860 --> 00:12:46,460
Young Master Duan, you jest.

200
00:12:47,310 --> 00:12:48,230
I heard

201
00:12:48,230 --> 00:12:50,070
you're a regular at Yuzao Pleasure House.

202
00:12:50,430 --> 00:12:52,590
and Luoxian, the lady of this house,

203
00:12:53,140 --> 00:12:54,740
have long been close as well.

204
00:12:55,230 --> 00:12:57,620
Since you mean to get to know

205
00:12:57,780 --> 00:12:59,140
my younger sister better,

206
00:12:59,430 --> 00:13:00,740
it is only natural

207
00:13:00,950 --> 00:13:03,070
to bring her into your daily life.

208
00:13:03,710 --> 00:13:04,550
Besides,

209
00:13:05,070 --> 00:13:06,830
for men to seek pleasure

210
00:13:07,020 --> 00:13:08,310
is common enough at home.

211
00:13:08,620 --> 00:13:09,830
I understand you.

212
00:13:12,470 --> 00:13:13,620
And look at my sister.

213
00:13:13,900 --> 00:13:15,470
A noble lady, graceful and poised.

214
00:13:15,900 --> 00:13:17,140
Why would she mind

215
00:13:17,500 --> 00:13:18,990
your confidantes?

216
00:13:21,500 --> 00:13:23,110
What a pity, though.

217
00:13:23,310 --> 00:13:25,140
I asked Luoxian here today.

218
00:13:25,990 --> 00:13:27,020
She is likely waiting

219
00:13:27,020 --> 00:13:28,350
quite anxiously by now.

220
00:13:31,070 --> 00:13:31,910
Young Master Duan,

221
00:13:32,860 --> 00:13:34,230
you must take good care of her.

222
00:13:34,230 --> 00:13:35,110
my younger sister

223
00:13:35,430 --> 00:13:36,900
I will take good care of your sister.

224
00:13:39,590 --> 00:13:40,860
Luo Xian,

225
00:13:44,430 --> 00:13:45,380
Since we parted after Gong Yan,

226
00:13:46,230 --> 00:13:47,190
Have you been well, Miss Wang?

227
00:13:50,780 --> 00:13:52,020
Thank you for your concern,

228
00:13:52,470 --> 00:13:53,470
I've been quite well.

229
00:13:55,190 --> 00:13:56,470
Truth be told, you did not wish

230
00:13:56,660 --> 00:13:57,620
to come here and meet me, did you?

231
00:13:58,620 --> 00:14:00,430
- I...
- Though you said nothing to your

232
00:14:00,830 --> 00:14:01,950
brother, you mind it a great deal,

233
00:14:02,430 --> 00:14:03,740
that men come to drink courtesan wine,

234
00:14:04,620 --> 00:14:06,110
do you not? Young Master Duan,

235
00:14:06,430 --> 00:14:07,310
you truly see through people,

236
00:14:07,470 --> 00:14:09,110
and grasp much from little. I admire it.

237
00:14:12,740 --> 00:14:15,230
But I can also sense

238
00:14:15,660 --> 00:14:16,500
that you do not seem

239
00:14:16,780 --> 00:14:18,500
so eager to know me either,

240
00:14:18,780 --> 00:14:19,620
am I right?

241
00:14:32,020 --> 00:14:32,860
It's raining.

242
00:14:35,020 --> 00:14:35,860
Yes.

243
00:14:37,990 --> 00:14:38,950
A sudden summer rain.

244
00:14:44,540 --> 00:14:48,820
(sugar figurine)

245
00:15:34,380 --> 00:15:35,310
Who are you?

246
00:15:35,310 --> 00:15:36,470
Where did this rake come from?

247
00:15:43,350 --> 00:15:44,710
You forgot me that quickly?

248
00:15:47,900 --> 00:15:48,860
I am Duan Xu.

249
00:15:50,540 --> 00:15:51,780
Xu as in Fenglangxu.

250
00:15:53,780 --> 00:15:54,620
My courtesy name is Shunxi.

251
00:16:17,070 --> 00:16:17,910
He Simu,

252
00:16:28,350 --> 00:16:29,470
So you recognized me.

253
00:16:30,230 --> 00:16:31,070
Foxy,

254
00:16:54,740 --> 00:16:55,950
How did you know it was me?

255
00:17:00,380 --> 00:17:01,990
Who else makes crow sugar figurines?

256
00:17:30,060 --> 00:17:30,990
You've come to Nandu.

257
00:17:39,020 --> 00:17:40,020
Why didn't you tell me?

258
00:17:42,990 --> 00:17:44,820
I came to Nandu on my own business.

259
00:17:45,630 --> 00:17:46,820
I didn't come here for you.

260
00:17:47,260 --> 00:17:48,190
Why would I tell you?

261
00:17:53,470 --> 00:17:54,630
Then you weren't going to see me?

262
00:17:57,870 --> 00:17:59,260
Nandu is only so big.

263
00:17:59,710 --> 00:18:00,630
Of course we'd run into each other.

264
00:18:01,670 --> 00:18:02,740
What a surprise, General Duan.

265
00:18:03,300 --> 00:18:04,150
Why are you holding my friend

266
00:18:04,150 --> 00:18:04,990
and not letting go?

267
00:18:07,500 --> 00:18:08,340
Imperial Preceptor,

268
00:18:10,910 --> 00:18:11,910
have you finished

269
00:18:12,100 --> 00:18:12,990
your official business?

270
00:18:19,150 --> 00:18:19,990
Old Ancestor,

271
00:18:22,470 --> 00:18:23,310
Miss He,

272
00:18:23,870 --> 00:18:25,150
why buy another sugar figurine?

273
00:18:25,670 --> 00:18:26,950
You cannot even taste it.

274
00:18:27,390 --> 00:18:28,500
Yet you still like such things.

275
00:18:29,390 --> 00:18:30,740
Mind your own affairs.

276
00:18:31,740 --> 00:18:32,580
Your health is so poor,

277
00:18:32,580 --> 00:18:34,190
yet you chose a rainy day to roam.

278
00:18:34,500 --> 00:18:35,780
Do you think your life too long?

279
00:18:35,990 --> 00:18:36,830
I...

280
00:18:38,390 --> 00:18:40,100
We all have our quirks. Let it be.

281
00:18:41,910 --> 00:18:42,750
Let's go.

282
00:18:44,230 --> 00:18:45,070
Come on.

283
00:18:59,260 --> 00:19:00,100
Taste it for me.

284
00:19:00,430 --> 00:19:01,270
Is it sweet?

285
00:19:13,150 --> 00:19:13,990

Drenched in rain in this weather,

378
00:23:29,100 --> 00:23:30,670
he may well fall ill.

379
00:23:30,990 --> 00:23:32,870
As for falling ill, I know it well.

380
00:23:33,100 --> 00:23:34,540
Men like him, who usually seem

381
00:23:34,540 --> 00:23:35,540
so strong and healthy...

382
00:23:35,540 --> 00:23:36,390
Once a person falls ill,

383
00:23:36,390 --> 00:23:37,870
it can hit like a mountain collapsing.

384
00:23:37,870 --> 00:23:39,020
It is perilous indeed.

385
00:23:39,150 --> 00:23:40,990
One lapse, and a small ailment grows.

386
00:23:40,990 --> 00:23:41,830
Then a life is lost.

387
00:23:44,430 --> 00:23:45,430
You said too little.

388
00:23:45,430 --> 00:23:46,780
Does your whole body ache?

389
00:23:47,910 --> 00:23:49,150
It surely does.

390
00:23:49,780 --> 00:23:51,820
Old Ancestor, you know me best.

391
00:23:52,580 --> 00:23:53,420
What?

392
00:23:54,020 --> 00:23:55,020
Afraid I will doom him with my words?

393
00:23:55,870 --> 00:23:56,710
Easy, easy.

394
00:23:56,710 --> 00:23:58,060
I did not use spellcraft just now.

395
00:23:58,340 --> 00:23:59,300
And even if I had,

396
00:23:59,300 --> 00:24:00,140
it would only be

397
00:24:01,430 --> 00:24:02,270
to pray for his well-being.

398
00:24:05,710 --> 00:24:06,580
I know.

399
00:24:07,540 --> 00:24:08,430
You know?

400
00:24:09,150 --> 00:24:11,710
Then you simply care for him,

401
00:24:12,190 --> 00:24:13,820
and cannot bear hearing him die.

402
00:24:16,950 --> 00:24:17,990
If you're unwell,

403
00:24:18,190 --> 00:24:19,500
then speak a little less.

404
00:24:21,820 --> 00:24:23,670
How are you anything like Aunt?

405
00:24:25,430 --> 00:24:26,820
Perhaps

406
00:24:27,870 --> 00:24:28,710
because she's pretty.

407
00:24:32,780 --> 00:24:33,670
Old Ancestor,

408
00:24:34,340 --> 00:24:35,300
you asked me before,

409
00:24:35,300 --> 00:24:36,780
how mortals live in Guixu.

410
00:24:37,060 --> 00:24:37,950
I almost thought

411
00:24:37,950 --> 00:24:39,230
he had become your beloved.

412
00:24:39,670 --> 00:24:40,710
But after Duan Xu returned to court,

413
00:24:40,710 --> 00:24:41,550
one look from me,

414
00:24:42,300 --> 00:24:43,150
and that resentment

415
00:24:43,340 --> 00:24:44,340
was heavier than the spirits'.

416
00:24:44,900 --> 00:24:45,740
I had assumed

417
00:24:45,740 --> 00:24:46,870
he was frustrated in court.

418
00:24:47,150 --> 00:24:47,990
But then,

419
00:24:47,990 --> 00:24:49,420
seeing how he grabbed your hand,

420
00:24:49,670 --> 00:24:50,740
I finally understood.

421
00:24:50,870 --> 00:24:52,820
It spelled out four clear words.

422
00:24:53,340 --> 00:24:55,150
Troubled by matters of the heart.

423
00:25:00,190 --> 00:25:01,100
You should count yourself fortunate.

424
00:25:01,100 --> 00:25:02,340
You're in the Imperial Preceptor's Manor now.

425
00:25:04,150 --> 00:25:05,150
That saved your life.

426
00:25:06,670 --> 00:25:07,870
Old Ancestor, forgive me.

427
00:25:08,470 --> 00:25:09,500
I saw how you were just now,

428
00:25:09,630 --> 00:25:10,740
so calm and unreadable.

429
00:25:10,910 --> 00:25:12,230
I take it you've turned him down.

430
00:25:12,430 --> 00:25:14,060
Then it has nothing to do with you.

431
00:25:14,470 --> 00:25:15,950
From what I saw, he and Miss Wang

432
00:25:15,950 --> 00:25:17,260
were getting along very well.

433
00:25:17,260 --> 00:25:18,630
Looks like the feeling is mutual.

434
00:25:18,820 --> 00:25:20,300
I suppose he'll soon forget

435
00:25:20,300 --> 00:25:21,300
a four-hundred-year-old,

436
00:25:25,300 --> 00:25:26,740
worldly and seasoned woman like you,

437
00:25:27,500 --> 00:25:30,020
and turn to a fair beauty instead.

438
00:25:35,540 --> 00:25:36,630
Old Ancestor.

439
00:25:37,230 --> 00:25:38,190
Old Ancestor.

440
00:25:38,390 --> 00:25:40,150
You have to hear the truth sometime.

441
00:25:40,540 --> 00:25:42,060
How was any of that the truth?

442
00:25:42,580 --> 00:25:43,710
How was that not the truth?

443
00:25:43,710 --> 00:25:45,230
Aren't you over four hundred?

444
00:25:45,630 --> 00:25:47,390
They were clearly distant and polite.

445
00:25:47,630 --> 00:25:49,020
But you called me over on purpose,

446
00:25:49,020 --> 00:25:50,540
to stir things up and sow discord.

447
00:25:50,990 --> 00:25:52,500
Who taught you to wag your tongue?

448
00:25:55,820 --> 00:25:58,100
They are not in love at all.

449
00:25:58,670 --> 00:25:59,510
I see.

450
00:25:59,670 --> 00:26:01,390
So that's the real point here.

451
00:26:06,540 --> 00:26:08,540
But Old Ancestor, don't forget,

452
00:26:08,990 --> 00:26:09,830
she

453
00:26:10,190 --> 00:26:12,430
is the one Duan Xu asked to marry.

454
00:26:21,390 --> 00:26:23,230
You do have a silver tongue.

455
00:26:24,710 --> 00:26:25,630
The task I assigned you,

456
00:26:25,630 --> 00:26:26,470
have you finished it?

457
00:26:27,190 --> 00:26:28,430
Have you found Song Xingyu?

458
00:26:30,260 --> 00:26:31,100
Rest assured.

459
00:26:31,630 --> 00:26:32,740
I've already been screening

460
00:26:32,740 --> 00:26:33,990
those you've left marks on.

461
00:26:34,870 --> 00:26:35,710
But, Old Ancestor...

462
00:26:35,710 --> 00:26:37,430
You know the state of my health.

463
00:26:37,670 --> 00:26:39,710
We must wait for an auspicious day.

464
00:26:39,910 --> 00:26:40,750
Otherwise,

465
00:26:41,870 --> 00:26:42,870
what little life I have left

466
00:26:42,870 --> 00:26:43,870
will be worn down even more.

467
00:26:44,260 --> 00:26:45,340
If my body is harmed,

468
00:26:45,340 --> 00:26:46,300
what am I to do?

469
00:26:53,060 --> 00:26:55,100
A bustling place like Nandu,

470
00:26:55,300 --> 00:26:57,060
all splendor and temptation,

471
00:26:57,870 --> 00:26:59,060
yet as far as the eye can see,

472
00:26:59,340 --> 00:27:01,190
there's no spiritual aura or spirits.

473
00:27:01,780 --> 00:27:02,620
Could it be

474
00:27:03,500 --> 00:27:04,990
this is tied to Song Xingyu too?

475
00:27:09,190 --> 00:27:10,870
I'll give you the obsessions tomorrow.

476
00:27:11,060 --> 00:27:12,150
Let's leave it at that for today.

477
00:27:14,870 --> 00:27:15,710
Old Ancestor,

478
00:27:16,150 --> 00:27:17,430
where do you actually stay?

479
00:27:18,060 --> 00:27:19,500
Come find me tomorrow night.

480
00:27:21,740 --> 00:27:23,580
Where am I supposed to find you?

481
00:27:31,630 --> 00:27:32,470
Third Brother.

482
00:27:35,230 --> 00:27:36,300
You had an umbrella with you,

483
00:27:36,300 --> 00:27:37,340
so how did you get this drenched?

484
00:27:38,190 --> 00:27:39,030
I just did not use it.

485
00:27:40,060 --> 00:27:41,630
The rain was pouring, and you still

486
00:27:42,260 --> 00:27:43,470
would not use it. What if you fall ill?

487
00:27:44,100 --> 00:27:45,060
Why are you so careless

488
00:27:45,060 --> 00:27:46,060
with your own health?

489
00:27:48,710 --> 00:27:49,550
Exactly.

490
00:27:51,190 --> 00:27:53,230
You knew full well that without it,

491
00:27:54,020 --> 00:27:54,860
you would be soaked, yet you refused.

492
00:27:55,990 --> 00:27:57,670
You also know you should live well,

493
00:27:58,710 --> 00:28:00,190
yet you refuse to do that too.

494
00:28:02,060 --> 00:28:02,910
You really have lost your senses.

495
00:28:04,500 --> 00:28:05,340
Third Brother,

496
00:28:07,150 --> 00:28:08,340
is something the matter?

497
00:28:15,500 --> 00:28:16,630
I have fallen for a young lady.

498
00:28:21,500 --> 00:28:22,990
Is she a lady from Nandu?

499
00:28:25,500 --> 00:28:26,630
No, she is not from Nandu.

500
00:28:29,100 --> 00:28:30,390
I met her on the battlefield.

501
00:28:32,060 --> 00:28:33,230
She did not come back with you?

502
00:28:35,190 --> 00:28:36,740
She comes from a good family.

503
00:28:37,630 --> 00:28:38,820
If I were to be with her,

504
00:28:39,630 --> 00:28:40,580
I would have to marry into her home.

505
00:28:47,230 --> 00:28:48,070
Then,

506
00:28:48,390 --> 00:28:49,230
does she

507
00:28:49,470 --> 00:28:50,670
care for you?

508
00:28:53,020 --> 00:28:53,950
She turned me down.

509
00:28:55,260 --> 00:28:56,150
In her eyes,

510
00:28:56,540 --> 00:28:58,020
let alone the Duan clan of Nandu,

511
00:28:58,470 --> 00:28:59,910
even Great Liang, or all under heaven,

512
00:29:00,500 --> 00:29:01,500
means nothing at all.

513
00:29:03,990 --> 00:29:05,870
What kind of lady is she?

514
00:29:06,630 --> 00:29:08,260
A lady unlike any in this world.

515
00:29:23,560 --> 00:29:24,800
- Third Brother.
- You wanted me?

516
00:29:25,580 --> 00:29:26,710
Your friends are here for you.

517
00:29:26,710 --> 00:29:28,500
I've seated them in the hall with tea.

518
00:29:28,870 --> 00:29:29,710
All right.

519
00:29:30,740 --> 00:29:31,580
Jingyuan,

520
00:29:32,910 --> 00:29:34,230
have you had dealings

521
00:29:34,580 --> 00:29:35,580
with the wife of the Minister of Revenue?

522
00:29:38,300 --> 00:29:39,470
I do know Madam Wang,

523
00:29:39,630 --> 00:29:41,300
we've crossed paths before.

524
00:29:41,710 --> 00:29:42,550
We're on fair terms.

525
00:29:42,910 --> 00:29:43,750
What is it?

526
00:29:44,150 --> 00:29:45,020
Today, Young Master Wang

527
00:29:45,340 --> 00:29:46,780
asked me to take Miss Wang home.

528
00:29:47,500 --> 00:29:48,820
While I was speaking with Miss Wang,

529
00:29:48,950 --> 00:29:50,470
I spotted a familiar face on the street.

530
00:29:51,020 --> 00:29:52,100
I feared it was a spy from Northern Chong,

531
00:29:52,260 --> 00:29:53,150
so I went after him.

532
00:29:53,740 --> 00:29:54,870
In the rush, I neglected Miss Wang,

533
00:29:55,430 --> 00:29:56,740
and failed to escort her home as promised.

534
00:29:59,260 --> 00:30:00,150
All right, I understand.

535
00:30:00,500 --> 00:30:01,820
I'll go visit Madam Wang at once

536
00:30:01,820 --> 00:30:02,870
and apologize for Third Brother.

537
00:30:05,340 --> 00:30:06,260
Wait, Third Brother,

538
00:30:07,470 --> 00:30:09,540
don't you already fancy someone?

539
00:30:09,950 --> 00:30:11,260
As for Miss Wang,

540
00:30:11,780 --> 00:30:12,910
what do you plan to do?

541
00:30:13,910 --> 00:30:14,750
Do not worry.

542
00:30:15,300 --> 00:30:16,140
I have my own plan.

543
00:30:37,540 --> 00:30:38,390
What brings you here?

544
00:30:39,740 --> 00:30:40,580
Senior Brother.

545
00:30:41,470 --> 00:30:42,310
Take a look, quickly.

546
00:30:42,500 --> 00:30:43,740
Wu Shengliu

547
00:30:43,740 --> 00:30:44,820
asked us to bring this to you.

548
00:30:45,740 --> 00:30:47,190
Though the fighting has settled,

549
00:30:47,540 --> 00:30:49,300
the border still sees unrest.

550
00:30:50,020 --> 00:30:50,950
This was from Commandant Wu,

551
00:30:51,100 --> 00:30:52,670
a wedding gift for your promotion.

552
00:30:53,260 --> 00:30:54,470
He likely never expected

553
00:30:54,670 --> 00:30:55,510
how things would turn out.

554
00:30:57,740 --> 00:30:58,580
Judging by the style,

555
00:30:59,950 --> 00:31:00,820
it belongs to at least a general.

556
00:31:02,500 --> 00:31:04,580
Wu Shengliu did well.

557
00:31:06,670 --> 00:31:07,510
Senior Brother,

558
00:31:08,060 --> 00:31:09,870
are we staying in Nandu for good?

559
00:31:11,910 --> 00:31:12,750
What I have always wanted

560
00:31:13,390 --> 00:31:14,260
has been to reclaim

561
00:31:14,260 --> 00:31:15,150
the frontier passes and rivers,
the 17 Prefectures.

562
00:31:15,740 --> 00:31:16,580
May the realm stay at peace.

563
00:31:17,060 --> 00:31:17,900
May the people live in health.

564
00:31:18,470 --> 00:31:19,580
Though Great Liang seeks no war,

565
00:31:20,260 --> 00:31:22,020
Northern Chong still covets our land.

566
00:31:22,630 --> 00:31:23,470
The moment they get a chance,

567
00:31:23,780 --> 00:31:24,620
they will surely strike back.

568
00:31:24,950 --> 00:31:26,100
We must prepare in advance.

569
00:31:26,540 --> 00:31:27,710
Then when do we leave?

570
00:31:29,980 --> 00:31:31,870
I cannot stay in Nandu another day.

571
00:31:32,340 --> 00:31:34,390
Every day, I am stuck indoors,

572
00:31:34,630 --> 00:31:35,950
learning embroidery and meeting suitors.

573
00:31:36,820 --> 00:31:37,660
If this keeps going,

574
00:31:37,670 --> 00:31:38,630
I will not even lift my blade.

575
00:31:39,540 --> 00:31:41,260
I have been idle in Nandu as well.

576
00:31:41,260 --> 00:31:42,100
Right?

577
00:31:46,150 --> 00:31:47,580
Though Yunzhou and Yunluo are retaken,

578
00:31:48,580 --> 00:31:49,540
Yunzhou's fine steeds

579
00:31:50,390 --> 00:31:51,230
have yet to thunder across

580
00:31:51,240 --> 00:31:52,430
the battlefield against Northern Chong.

581
00:31:53,150 --> 00:31:54,150
And Luozhou's Tianluo Ore

582
00:31:54,910 --> 00:31:56,580
It has yet to armor Great Liang's men.

583
00:31:57,060 --> 00:31:57,900
Some matters

584
00:31:58,390 --> 00:31:59,390
must be settled in Nandu.

585
00:32:00,340 --> 00:32:01,190
(Yuzao Pleasure House)

586
00:32:01,190 --> 00:32:02,300
This way, please. Right this way.

587
00:32:02,630 --> 00:32:03,470
I'm telling you,

588
00:32:03,470 --> 00:32:04,540
Take care now. Easy now.

589
00:32:04,540 --> 00:32:06,430
I'll be coming back to find you.

590
00:32:07,180 --> 00:32:08,020
Ah, you've arrived.

591
00:32:08,020 --> 00:32:08,910
This way, please. Right this way.

592
00:32:08,910 --> 00:32:10,150
Young Master Zhang, you've come.

593
00:32:10,150 --> 00:32:11,300
Yuzao Pleasure House

594
00:32:13,340 --> 00:32:14,180
Slowly now, slowly now.

595
00:32:14,690 --> 00:32:15,540
Alright, come again next time.

596
00:32:15,540 --> 00:32:17,390
Old Ancestor sure knows how to have fun.

597
00:32:18,390 --> 00:32:19,780
You really became the courtesan queen.

598
00:32:21,780 --> 00:32:22,780
Alright, please head inside.

599
00:32:22,780 --> 00:32:23,620
Sure thing.

600
00:32:28,870 --> 00:32:32,820
Alright, alright, alright.

601
00:32:33,740 --> 00:32:35,020
You've already finished a whole jar.

602
00:32:37,190 --> 00:32:38,030
All right.

603
00:32:48,300 --> 00:32:49,390
Why hasn't it reached

604
00:32:49,390 --> 00:32:50,870
closing time yet?

605
00:32:59,230 --> 00:33:00,390
Heavens,

606
00:33:01,500 --> 00:33:02,870
I must have slept in too late.

607
00:33:03,740 --> 00:33:04,580
To think I'd get
to see the Imperial Preceptor

608
00:33:04,710 --> 00:33:05,710
come here for amusement.

609
00:33:15,990 --> 00:33:16,830
Old Ancestor,

610
00:33:18,060 --> 00:33:18,900
Old Ancestor,

611
00:33:27,910 --> 00:33:28,750
Fine wine,

612
00:33:29,820 --> 00:33:30,660
beauties,

613
00:33:33,780 --> 00:33:34,990
tales of desire,

614
00:33:36,390 --> 00:33:37,740
and obsessions at their peak.

615
00:33:38,300 --> 00:33:39,580
Only Old Ancestor knows how.

616
00:33:41,300 --> 00:33:42,300
Have you seen enough yet?

617
00:33:49,710 --> 00:33:50,990
Just a little more, and I will.

618
00:33:51,500 --> 00:33:52,340
Old Ancestor,

619
00:33:52,540 --> 00:33:53,580
have you ever thought

620
00:33:53,710 --> 00:33:54,820
what the magical artifact will be like?

621
00:34:17,540 --> 00:34:18,380
(Yuzao Pleasure House)

622
00:34:18,750 --> 00:34:20,550
(The Imperial Preceptor secretly meets
Miss He, the courtesan queen.)

623
00:34:43,350 --> 00:34:44,190
Welcome, my lord.

624
00:34:44,580 --> 00:34:45,700
Please go upstairs.

625
00:34:52,830 --> 00:34:53,670
You should leave now.

626
00:34:59,220 --> 00:35:00,060
A spirit is here.

627
00:35:00,470 --> 00:35:02,020
A guest has arrived.

628
00:35:02,990 --> 00:35:03,830
Old Ancestor.

629
00:35:04,180 --> 00:35:05,020
Something is wrong.

630
00:35:05,950 --> 00:35:06,790
This spiritual aura...

631
00:35:07,390 --> 00:35:08,230
It's very strong.

632
00:35:10,910 --> 00:35:11,910
I'll get you out of here.

633
00:35:41,180 --> 00:35:42,270
Greetings, sir.

634
00:35:43,310 --> 00:35:44,220
May I ask,

635
00:35:44,220 --> 00:35:45,390
what story you wish to tell?

636
00:35:48,270 --> 00:35:49,220
The story begins with

637
00:35:49,220 --> 00:35:51,310
a prince of unwavering devotion.

638
00:35:52,580 --> 00:35:53,870
He was ennobled as a prince young.

639
00:35:54,140 --> 00:35:55,350
He basked in imperial favor.

640
00:35:56,270 --> 00:35:57,910
The court and the realm all believed

641
00:35:58,100 --> 00:35:59,350
he would inherit the throne.

642
00:35:59,990 --> 00:36:01,580
Yet history always leaves regrets.

643
00:36:02,140 --> 00:36:04,430
His younger brother saw no hope

644
00:36:05,140 --> 00:36:06,350
to vie for the heirship,

645
00:36:07,220 --> 00:36:09,350
so he raised troops in rebellion.

646
00:36:10,830 --> 00:36:12,470
The prince, bound by kinship,

647
00:36:12,830 --> 00:36:14,580
tried to stop him, never knowing

648
00:36:15,020 --> 00:36:16,180
it was a deadly trap

649
00:36:18,060 --> 00:36:19,580
tailored just for him.

650
00:36:20,270 --> 00:36:21,430
His brother cried thief himself.

651
00:36:22,100 --> 00:36:24,580
That loyal prince became,

652
00:36:26,790 --> 00:36:27,660
in a single day, a traitor to the state.

653
00:36:29,430 --> 00:36:31,020
Courtesan queen,

654
00:36:31,500 --> 00:36:32,700
do you know how the prince

655
00:36:36,950 --> 00:36:37,790
met his end at last?

656
00:36:40,390 --> 00:36:41,390
