This is Western Heavenly Maids Dance.

108
00:06:41,180 --> 00:06:43,340
In Indian mythology,

109

Gandharva and other deities
worship the Buddha by dancing.

00:09:39,490 --> 00:09:41,220
It's kind of like frying,

173
00:09:41,300 --> 00:09:42,810
but it's only better.

174
00:09:44,420 --> 00:09:45,610
That's new.

175
00:09:45,610 --> 00:09:46,540
Really?

176
00:09:46,980 --> 00:09:48,050
So many questions.

177
00:09:50,050 --> 00:09:52,460
Sir, just try it.

178
00:09:53,130 --> 00:09:54,340
Yeah, yeah, yeah. I will.

179
00:09:56,300 --> 00:09:56,930
Come on.

180
00:09:59,220 --> 00:09:59,900
So?

181
00:10:01,100 --> 00:10:03,100
It's just…

182
00:10:03,900 --> 00:10:05,810
Is it difficult to swallow

183
00:10:05,810 --> 00:10:07,610
or hard to describe?

184
00:10:08,050 --> 00:10:09,340
It's unbelievable

185
00:10:09,540 --> 00:10:14,130
that such a unique delicacy
exists in this world.

186
00:10:14,420 --> 00:10:17,020
It's flavorful,
but with a creamy texture.

187
00:10:18,490 --> 00:10:19,980
I'd like to try one as well.

188
00:10:21,050 --> 00:10:21,890
So?

189
00:10:23,370 --> 00:10:25,370
It's beyond words.

190
00:10:25,370 --> 00:10:26,980
Beyond words.

191
00:10:26,980 --> 00:10:27,980
What did I say again?

192
00:10:27,980 --> 00:10:29,130
I told you to try it.

193
00:10:29,420 --> 00:10:30,930
Even I give it a high rating.

194
00:10:30,930 --> 00:10:31,930
So it mustn't be bad.

195
00:10:33,490 --> 00:10:36,170
Even the dishes for the hall diners
are fabulous.

196
00:10:36,490 --> 00:10:39,420
I wonder what the food
for the private rooms tastes like…

197
00:10:39,420 --> 00:10:41,540
The private rooms are
in Yiyuan Pavilion,

198
00:10:41,540 --> 00:10:43,220
and I promise the food is only better.

199
00:10:43,250 --> 00:10:44,130
Then we must try it.

200
00:10:44,130 --> 00:10:45,170
We're going now.

201
00:10:45,300 --> 00:10:48,170
Sorry, Yiyuan Pavilion is not
open today.

202
00:10:49,490 --> 00:10:50,730
Why?

203
00:10:50,930 --> 00:10:53,860
The first batch of guests
that Yiyuan Pavilion will serve

204
00:10:53,900 --> 00:10:55,610
are 12 most renowned scholars

205
00:10:55,610 --> 00:10:58,610
in the Eastern Capital.

206
00:10:59,100 --> 00:11:01,220
By then, we will use
the best ingredients

207
00:11:01,300 --> 00:11:02,690
for the Flower and Moon Banquet.

208
00:11:02,690 --> 00:11:04,370
and Ms. Song will play at the banquet.

209
00:11:06,100 --> 00:11:07,340
I wonder

210
00:11:07,570 --> 00:11:11,420
which 12 scholars
may have the privilege?

211
00:11:12,420 --> 00:11:13,170
Me, too.

212
00:11:13,170 --> 00:11:15,860
Who will be so lucky?

213
00:11:16,420 --> 00:11:19,370
Tomorrow, we will send out
12 pieces of invitations.

214
00:11:20,370 --> 00:11:23,020
I wonder who will receive them.

215
00:11:23,390 --> 00:11:24,290
Uh…

216
00:11:25,690 --> 00:11:27,100
Please enjoy.

217
00:11:27,610 --> 00:11:28,570
All right. All right.

218
00:11:30,170 --> 00:11:31,570
The invitations, huh?

219
00:11:33,100 --> 00:11:38,100
Mr. Yuan, I'm sure you will receive one.

220
00:11:38,250 --> 00:11:40,130
No, no.

221
00:11:40,490 --> 00:11:43,340
You will receive one.

222
00:11:43,540 --> 00:11:45,570
Well, of course, I will.

223
00:11:52,070 --> 00:11:55,370
(Wang's Smithing)

224
00:11:59,070 --> 00:12:01,070
(Smithing)

225
00:12:23,460 --> 00:12:24,790
I'd like to open up a restaurant.

226
00:12:25,690 --> 00:12:28,170
Don't act like it's a tricky problem.

227
00:12:28,490 --> 00:12:31,780
There are compromises
between a couple.

228
00:12:32,220 --> 00:12:33,250
That's the way it is.

229
00:12:37,250 --> 00:12:38,730
Since I ask to borrow money from you,

230
00:12:38,730 --> 00:12:40,220
I owe you a favor.

231
00:12:41,130 --> 00:12:42,250
I know you're willing

232
00:12:42,540 --> 00:12:43,810
to help us one or two times.

233
00:12:44,220 --> 00:12:45,420
But what would happen
at the tenth time?

234
00:12:45,460 --> 00:12:47,130
No matter how many times,
I'll always help you.

235
00:12:51,490 --> 00:12:52,820
You made the choice.

236
00:12:53,780 --> 00:12:54,540
Are you sure about it?

237
00:12:57,570 --> 00:12:58,810
If you stay faithful,

238
00:12:59,690 --> 00:13:00,610
so will I.

239
00:13:05,370 --> 00:13:07,690
Do you remember? You didn't
allow me to cry.

240
00:13:08,370 --> 00:13:09,730
And I didn't allow you
to smile like this.

241
00:13:11,810 --> 00:13:13,130
Now that we're together,

242
00:13:13,730 --> 00:13:15,170
I'll share

243
00:13:17,170 --> 00:13:18,370
half of the weal and woe with you.

244
00:13:28,490 --> 00:13:29,220
Pan'er,

245
00:13:30,570 --> 00:13:32,460
I'll remember everything

246
00:13:32,460 --> 00:13:33,660
that you have done for me lately.

247
00:13:34,130 --> 00:13:34,810
In the future,

248
00:13:35,610 --> 00:13:37,490
I'll repay you double.

249
00:13:48,040 --> 00:13:48,870
Nice. Brilliant.

250
00:13:57,780 --> 00:13:59,890
Our dear guests.

251
00:14:00,170 --> 00:14:04,020
Yong'an Restaurant shall hold
a Flower and Moon Banquet tonight.

252
00:14:04,340 --> 00:14:05,980
We expect to see 12…

253
00:14:05,980 --> 00:14:07,060
(We expect to see 12 gastronomes)
12 what?

254
00:14:07,090 --> 00:14:08,170
(at 7:00 PM sharp.)
12 what?

255
00:14:08,300 --> 00:14:09,780
I don't know this word.

256
00:14:10,900 --> 00:14:12,540
Only you can work it out.

257
00:14:12,690 --> 00:14:13,690
If I was to do the job,

258
00:14:14,100 --> 00:14:15,220
I would never use the word.

259
00:14:15,810 --> 00:14:16,900
Yong'an Restaurant

260
00:14:16,900 --> 00:14:18,170
will become a hit.

261
00:14:19,190 --> 00:14:20,300
(Price: 50 strings of copper coins)

262
00:14:20,300 --> 00:14:22,420
Success isn't easy for a new business.

263
00:14:23,300 --> 00:14:24,300
The Flower and Moon Banquet

264
00:14:24,690 --> 00:14:26,420
will decide.

265
00:14:27,370 --> 00:14:30,810
Pan'er, the price is too high.

266
00:14:31,980 --> 00:14:33,420
In the Eastern Capital,
50 strings of coins

267
00:14:33,420 --> 00:14:34,900
can pay for half-year rent.

268
00:14:35,980 --> 00:14:39,050
Pan'er, don't you think
we're pricing it too high?

269
00:14:39,860 --> 00:14:41,730
It's always difficult for a new business
to attract guests.

270
00:14:42,690 --> 00:14:45,540
But we can't continue the low-price
strategy that we used for the teahouse.

271
00:14:46,250 --> 00:14:47,370
A high price

272
00:14:47,930 --> 00:14:49,730
is the best hype.

273
00:14:50,170 --> 00:14:52,300
But what dishes should I cook

274
00:14:52,730 --> 00:14:54,730
to be worth that price?

275
00:14:56,340 --> 00:14:58,860
No one can make the food
worth that much.

276
00:14:59,610 --> 00:15:01,660
I want them to feel

277
00:15:01,930 --> 00:15:03,900
that the banquet is worthwhile.

278
00:15:05,100 --> 00:15:07,420
50 strings of copper coins?
Will they find it worthwhile?

279
00:15:08,220 --> 00:15:09,130
Can we do that?

280
00:15:09,610 --> 00:15:10,730
That's why I said

281
00:15:10,730 --> 00:15:12,420
Yiyuan Pavilion wasn't
ready for guests tonight.

282
00:15:13,420 --> 00:15:15,340
We need time

283
00:15:16,020 --> 00:15:17,900
for the entire Eastern Capital

284
00:15:17,900 --> 00:15:19,170
to start talking about us.

285
00:15:19,490 --> 00:15:20,420
And because

286
00:15:20,420 --> 00:15:22,250
we've got everybody hyped,

287
00:15:22,570 --> 00:15:23,860
the banquet tomorrow

288
00:15:24,340 --> 00:15:25,660
must reach the level of perfection.

289
00:15:27,130 --> 00:15:27,810
Don't worry.

290
00:15:28,300 --> 00:15:29,610
My men

291
00:15:29,610 --> 00:15:31,610
will guard the restaurant well.

292
00:15:31,730 --> 00:15:32,930
If anyone looks for trouble,

293
00:15:33,100 --> 00:15:34,300
they will be thrown into the river.

294
00:15:36,900 --> 00:15:37,610
Very good.

295
00:15:58,020 --> 00:16:00,020
Have you got the invitation?

296
00:16:03,370 --> 00:16:07,340
I'm afraid only a master scholar
like Mr. Liu Jiu

297
00:16:07,460 --> 00:16:08,970
has the privilege
to receive the invitation.

298
00:16:10,820 --> 00:16:13,170
Master, here's the invitation
from Yong'an Restaurant.

299
00:16:13,470 --> 00:16:14,330
What?

300
00:16:14,700 --> 00:16:15,370
Look.

301
00:16:15,370 --> 00:16:16,730
The invitation from Yong'an Restaurant?

302
00:16:16,730 --> 00:16:17,340
Yes.

303
00:16:17,530 --> 00:16:19,530
(Our dear guests)

304
00:16:19,530 --> 00:16:21,100
Our dear guests.

305
00:16:23,290 --> 00:16:24,930
They use the Xuetao Envelope.

306
00:16:25,370 --> 00:16:27,260
Yong'an Restaurant shall hold
a Flower and Moon Banquet tonight.

307
00:16:27,930 --> 00:16:31,260
We expect to see 12 gastronomes

308
00:16:31,820 --> 00:16:33,490
at 7:00 PM sharp.

309
00:16:34,460 --> 00:16:35,260
Nice drawing.

310
00:16:35,930 --> 00:16:37,530
Nice calligraphy. Nice verses.

311
00:16:37,730 --> 00:16:38,290
Yes.

312
00:16:38,700 --> 00:16:40,220
It takes decades of practice

313
00:16:40,410 --> 00:16:42,140
to achieve

314
00:16:42,140 --> 00:16:43,700
the technique of Darting White.

315
00:16:44,020 --> 00:16:45,640
(Price: 50 strings of copper coins)

316
00:16:46,530 --> 00:16:47,640
Price, 50 strings of copper coins?

317
00:16:51,100 --> 00:16:52,050
Mr. Zhuoshi,

318
00:16:52,700 --> 00:16:55,970
can I take a look?

319
00:16:56,460 --> 00:16:57,050
Here.

320
00:16:59,370 --> 00:17:00,700
It doesn't have a name on it.

321
00:17:00,900 --> 00:17:02,370
What if you don't give it back to me

322
00:17:02,370 --> 00:17:03,490
after you take a look?

323
00:17:04,580 --> 00:17:05,700
I'm off.

324
00:17:06,140 --> 00:17:07,290
I've got the invitation.

325
00:17:07,660 --> 00:17:09,020
I'm going home.

326
00:17:09,020 --> 00:17:10,260
I've got it.

327
00:17:10,260 --> 00:17:11,780
Cheap.

328
00:17:19,170 --> 00:17:19,930
Sir.

329
00:17:23,010 --> 00:17:23,670
(Yong'an Restaurant)

330
00:17:23,670 --> 00:17:25,990
(Our dear guests)

331
00:17:26,890 --> 00:17:28,380
Stop playing the music
and stop dancing.

332
00:17:28,820 --> 00:17:30,700
I've got it. I've got it.

333
00:17:31,380 --> 00:17:33,290
- Congratulations, Mr. Liu Jiu.
- Congratulations, Mr. Liu Jiu.

Ms. Song knows manners.

338
00:18:07,500 --> 00:18:09,390
How come no one ushers us?

339
00:18:10,380 --> 00:18:12,250
It says the banquet is
in Yiyuan Pavilion.

340
00:18:12,460 --> 00:18:13,130
Um…

341
00:18:13,530 --> 00:18:14,700
Are we at the wrong place?

342
00:18:14,820 --> 00:18:15,700
No way.

343
00:18:18,220 --> 00:18:18,860
I mean…

344
00:18:21,770 --> 00:18:22,820
It's just…

345
00:18:22,820 --> 00:18:23,890
What's going on?

346
00:18:26,980 --> 00:18:28,500
W-What's the meaning of this?

347
00:18:28,500 --> 00:18:29,340
Right.

348
00:18:29,700 --> 00:18:30,500
Anybody?

349
00:18:31,890 --> 00:18:32,980
Open the door.

350
00:18:32,980 --> 00:18:34,170
- Open the door!
- Open the door!

351
00:18:34,170 --> 00:18:34,820
Open the door!

352
00:18:34,820 --> 00:18:35,530
Anyone? Open the door.

353
00:18:35,530 --> 00:18:36,860
- Open the door!
- Open the door!

354
00:19:19,050 --> 00:19:20,050
That's interesting.

355
00:19:20,050 --> 00:19:20,740
Easy.

356
00:19:20,890 --> 00:19:22,820
Put it here. Just leave it here.

357
00:19:39,620 --> 00:19:40,840
Look at that old man. That one.

358
00:20:11,740 --> 00:20:12,520
Smoke.

359
00:20:14,500 --> 00:20:15,240
More.

360
00:20:29,010 --> 00:20:29,930
Amazing.

361
00:20:41,770 --> 00:20:42,620
That's He Si.

362
00:20:42,890 --> 00:20:43,820
That chubby fellow

363
00:20:43,820 --> 00:20:45,980
is He Si who works for Chi Pan.

364
00:20:46,540 --> 00:20:47,250
It's…

365
00:21:01,050 --> 00:21:02,370
Preparing Newly Woven Silk.

366
00:21:03,620 --> 00:21:06,340
The masterpiece of Zhang Xuan
from the Tang dynasty.

367
00:21:20,390 --> 00:21:23,020
T-T-The Court Ladies Wearing Hairpins.

368
00:21:23,410 --> 00:21:24,980
A work of Zhou Fang.

369
00:21:25,820 --> 00:21:28,380
Yes, and no.

370
00:21:29,530 --> 00:21:32,220
Real and unreal.

371
00:21:42,050 --> 00:21:45,520
Yong'an Restaurant brings the content
of the paintings to life.

372
00:21:47,170 --> 00:21:50,700
Wonderful. Amazing.

373
00:21:51,820 --> 00:21:53,530
Bravo. Bravo.

374
00:21:53,530 --> 00:21:55,530
- Bravo. Bravo.
- Bravo.

375
00:21:55,820 --> 00:21:56,980
Bravo. Bravo.

376
00:21:57,290 --> 00:21:59,990
The performance is worth
every penny we spent.

377
00:21:59,990 --> 00:22:00,920
It's excellent.

378
00:22:02,620 --> 00:22:03,380
It's so worthwhile.

379
00:22:03,380 --> 00:22:04,010
Just amazing.

380
00:22:04,010 --> 00:22:05,620
I'd like to watch it again

381
00:22:06,050 --> 00:22:07,980
even if it'll cost me
another 100 strings.

382
00:22:09,580 --> 00:22:10,290
Yes.

383
00:22:22,740 --> 00:22:23,370
Bravo.

384
00:22:24,650 --> 00:22:25,930
- Bravo.
- Bravo.

385
00:22:33,340 --> 00:22:35,100
- Bravo.
- Bravo.

386
00:22:35,770 --> 00:22:36,380
Bravo

387
00:23:11,170 --> 00:23:13,290
- Bravo.
- Bravo.

388
00:23:18,620 --> 00:23:21,890
- Bravo.
- Bravo.

389
00:23:28,290 --> 00:23:29,840
(Yong'an Restaurant)

390
00:24:12,700 --> 00:24:14,820
He's gone to the imperial court.

391
00:24:15,980 --> 00:24:21,100
Tonight, I wish to get drunk
with you gentlemen.

392
00:24:22,770 --> 00:24:25,770
Fairy lady, what is this drink?

393
00:24:33,340 --> 00:24:35,170
If the host gets me drunk,

394
00:24:35,530 --> 00:24:37,500
I don't care where I am.

395
00:24:42,250 --> 00:24:44,220
It's the storax and tulip wine

396
00:24:44,820 --> 00:24:46,860
in the after-rain green porcelain bowl.

397
00:24:54,010 --> 00:24:56,380
Storax and tulip wine,

398
00:24:57,460 --> 00:25:00,010
amber glitter inside the jade bowl.

399
00:25:01,700 --> 00:25:02,460
Fabulous.

400
00:25:03,100 --> 00:25:04,650
It's the wine

401
00:25:05,290 --> 00:25:07,650
that celestials drink.

402
00:25:25,740 --> 00:25:28,250
First up, chrysanthemum drink.

403
00:25:29,980 --> 00:25:31,580
Fragrant crunchy plum.

404
00:25:33,410 --> 00:25:35,050
Carved preserved fruit.

405
00:25:37,770 --> 00:25:39,100
Crystal cold cake.

406
00:25:41,380 --> 00:25:44,500
The instrument plays the lament,

407
00:25:46,820 --> 00:25:49,340
the twig competes with the spring.

408
00:26:00,930 --> 00:26:04,290
Second round. Xi Shi clams.

409
00:26:04,290 --> 00:26:06,010
Dried scallop soup.

410
00:26:06,220 --> 00:26:07,740
Steamed bass.

411
00:26:07,740 --> 00:26:09,170
Lotus bun.

412
00:26:09,410 --> 00:26:12,220
Morning moths on the fan,

413
00:26:12,410 --> 00:26:14,930
red tulips bloom in spring.

414
00:26:24,890 --> 00:26:26,740
Emotions bring out tears.

415
00:26:27,410 --> 00:26:30,890
The performance is amazing.
The food is quite tasty.

416
00:26:31,580 --> 00:26:34,460
Finally, white kidney.

417
00:26:35,130 --> 00:26:36,700
Boiled green plum dough.

418
00:26:37,700 --> 00:26:38,980
Crab meat in orange.

419
00:26:40,220 --> 00:26:41,410
Almond and mutton.

420
00:26:58,820 --> 00:26:59,500
Please.

421
00:27:19,890 --> 00:27:23,620
This is bliss.

422
00:27:25,010 --> 00:27:28,220
The banquet is worth every penny.

423
00:27:28,410 --> 00:27:31,290
Yes, indeed.

424
00:27:31,530 --> 00:27:32,580
Too early for the comment.

425
00:27:33,700 --> 00:27:36,820
Please look out the window.

426
00:27:36,990 --> 00:27:37,770
Ah?

427
00:27:43,010 --> 00:27:45,820
It's so nice.

428
00:27:49,290 --> 00:27:49,930
Excellent.

429
00:28:10,530 --> 00:28:11,500
Look over that.

430
00:28:17,580 --> 00:28:19,580
- Nice.
- Bravo.

431
00:28:21,380 --> 00:28:21,930
Good.

432
00:28:21,930 --> 00:28:22,820
Look. Look.

433
00:28:24,100 --> 00:28:24,620
Good.

434
00:28:31,290 --> 00:28:32,370
- Nice.
- Very good.

435
00:28:38,820 --> 00:28:40,250
I would like

436
00:28:42,500 --> 00:28:44,500
to receive the invitation someday.

437
00:28:56,770 --> 00:28:58,410
You have good taste.

438
00:28:59,050 --> 00:29:02,500
Ms. Zhao is indeed a fine performer.

439
00:29:03,290 --> 00:29:05,890
She manages to make the
opening ceremony of a restaurant

440
00:29:06,290 --> 00:29:09,770
as lively as a festival celebration.

441
00:29:14,340 --> 00:29:18,050
So? Your injury is almost healed, right?

442
00:29:19,380 --> 00:29:22,170
When will you get married?

443
00:29:25,410 --> 00:29:26,740
I haven't seen her for a long time.

444
00:29:28,010 --> 00:29:30,220
Did you have a fight?

445
00:29:30,740 --> 00:29:35,700
It's common for a young couple.

446
00:29:36,770 --> 00:29:40,290
Just listen to your dad.

447
00:29:40,770 --> 00:29:43,290
No matter what the misunderstanding
is between you,

448
00:29:43,740 --> 00:29:46,460
you need to clear the air face to face.

449
00:29:47,170 --> 00:29:49,460
Sometimes, waiting and guess

450
00:29:49,930 --> 00:29:52,650
are more hurtful than wrangle.

451
00:29:53,620 --> 00:29:55,860
It happened between your mom and me.

452
00:29:59,580 --> 00:30:00,290
Never mind.

453
00:30:02,580 --> 00:30:03,500
Don't worry.

454
00:30:03,740 --> 00:30:06,410
I won't interfere with your choice.

455
00:30:06,700 --> 00:30:08,010
Of course, you won't.

456
00:30:08,530 --> 00:30:10,130
Because you only arrange

457
00:30:10,410 --> 00:30:14,100
girls from noble families for me.

458
00:30:16,050 --> 00:30:17,890
Why don't I have the courage
to see her?

459
00:30:18,410 --> 00:30:19,930
I believe you know why.

460
00:30:23,010 --> 00:30:24,620
Why would a girl

461
00:30:24,620 --> 00:30:27,010
marry the son of the man
who plotted her father's death?

462
00:30:29,010 --> 00:30:31,580
Stop trying to talk me around.

463
00:30:32,010 --> 00:30:33,050
You think

464
00:30:33,820 --> 00:30:35,010
you won't raise my suspicion
by doing this,

465
00:30:35,620 --> 00:30:37,100
or is everybody

466
00:30:37,890 --> 00:30:38,530
an exploitable chess piece

467
00:30:38,530 --> 00:30:40,820
in your eyes?

468
00:30:42,010 --> 00:30:43,340
What are you talking about?

469
00:30:44,620 --> 00:30:46,460
I'm not that kind of a person.

470
00:30:46,890 --> 00:30:47,500
I'm the Commissioner

471
00:30:47,500 --> 00:30:49,980
of the Capital Security Office,

472
00:30:50,460 --> 00:30:52,930
I don't make groundless accusations.

473
00:30:54,930 --> 00:30:56,130
In the Hat Demon case,

474
00:30:56,580 --> 00:30:57,980
you used me

475
00:30:59,770 --> 00:31:02,010
to hit Qi Mu hard.

476
00:31:04,220 --> 00:31:05,820
That was the last time.
I won't help you ever again.

477
00:31:06,700 --> 00:31:07,460
Minister Duke Xiao.

478
00:31:08,380 --> 00:31:12,130
I won't marry the noble girls
you arranged for me.

479
00:31:13,010 --> 00:31:15,460
I disown the Xiao Family.

480
00:31:16,380 --> 00:31:18,500
Nor will I allow myself
and the Capital Security Office

481
00:31:18,890 --> 00:31:21,290
to serve as your tool
in your power struggle.

482
00:31:24,820 --> 00:31:25,620
Why?

483
00:31:27,250 --> 00:31:30,100
Did I not help with your promotion

484
00:31:30,250 --> 00:31:32,500
so that your wish of transferring

485
00:31:32,500 --> 00:31:35,380
your mother's grave is fulfilled?

486
00:31:35,650 --> 00:31:39,380
Isn't it my blood running in your veins?

487
00:31:40,700 --> 00:31:44,010
Can't you just use your power

488
00:31:44,100 --> 00:31:47,220
to give your old man a hand?

489
00:31:47,770 --> 00:31:48,650
Can't you?

490
00:31:49,100 --> 00:31:49,740
I can't.

491
00:31:52,700 --> 00:31:53,700
The Capital Security Office

492
00:31:54,650 --> 00:31:58,620
serves the people,

493
00:31:59,290 --> 00:32:01,580
not you ministers

494
00:32:02,010 --> 00:32:03,500
or your political conflicts.

495
00:32:04,340 --> 00:32:05,530
As to your blood.

496
00:32:08,700 --> 00:32:09,820
I'll give it right back to you.

497
00:32:17,530 --> 00:32:18,580
What are you doing?

498
00:32:21,100 --> 00:32:22,500
This is sheer idiocy.

499
00:32:22,860 --> 00:32:23,820
Don't worry.

500
00:32:26,340 --> 00:32:27,410
I'm not going to kill myself.

501
00:32:28,580 --> 00:32:29,500
I'm told

502
00:32:30,250 --> 00:32:32,100
that human body has ten cups of blood.

503
00:32:33,700 --> 00:32:35,170
I lost two cups

504
00:32:36,250 --> 00:32:37,410
when I saved you in the boat,

505
00:32:38,410 --> 00:32:42,340
I puked another two cups

506
00:32:42,340 --> 00:32:44,580
after I learned that you plotted
the death of Pan'er's father.

507
00:32:45,380 --> 00:32:48,100
Now I'll return another cup to you.

508
00:32:50,410 --> 00:32:51,410
Our father-son relationship

509
00:32:52,890 --> 00:32:54,130
ends right here.

510
00:32:54,530 --> 00:32:56,620
Qian-Qianfan.

511
00:32:58,130 --> 00:32:58,980
Don't worry about me.

512
00:32:59,980 --> 00:33:01,500
Worry about yourself.

513
00:33:03,010 --> 00:33:04,220
I know why you asked me to come here.

514
00:33:04,770 --> 00:33:06,220
You're worried

515
00:33:06,770 --> 00:33:09,130
that Qi Mu is after something

516
00:33:09,130 --> 00:33:10,380
as he returned to the Eastern Capital

517
00:33:10,980 --> 00:33:12,340
at the cost of his integrity.

518
00:33:13,930 --> 00:33:17,290
All right, one last warning.

519
00:33:17,770 --> 00:33:20,410
Ouyang Xu,
Qi Mu's new confidential follower,

520
00:33:21,340 --> 00:33:24,380
will soon become Gao Hu's
son-in-law for the second time.

521
00:33:30,770 --> 00:33:31,930
This is all I'm going to tell you.

522
00:34:38,290 --> 00:34:40,290
Pan'er, why did you
put a mouse trap here?

523
00:34:40,580 --> 00:34:42,140
Because there're mice running around.

524
00:34:44,120 --> 00:34:44,770
Pan'er.

525
00:34:45,820 --> 00:34:46,730
Mr. Gu?

526
00:34:52,180 --> 00:34:52,940
Gu Qianfan,

527
00:34:53,860 --> 00:34:54,730
what are you doing here?

528
00:34:55,900 --> 00:34:57,140
I'd like to talk to Pan'er.

529
00:34:58,530 --> 00:34:59,690
You want an invitation card

530
00:34:59,690 --> 00:35:01,290
because we know you, huh?

531
00:35:01,580 --> 00:35:03,140
I tell you what, it's not happening.

532
00:35:04,820 --> 00:35:05,490
Pan'er.

533
00:35:06,010 --> 00:35:06,530
Pan'er,

534
00:35:06,530 --> 00:35:07,730
I have something important to tell you.

535
00:35:09,380 --> 00:35:10,490
Take your stuff away.

536
00:35:12,620 --> 00:35:13,210
Pan'er.

537
00:35:13,210 --> 00:35:14,250
Zhaodi, send him away.

538
00:35:15,770 --> 00:35:16,380
Pan'er.

539
00:35:16,900 --> 00:35:17,490
Pan'er.

540
00:35:17,770 --> 00:35:19,210
Mr. Gu, please.

541
00:35:32,860 --> 00:35:34,580
Sorry that I got your clothes wet.

542
00:35:35,690 --> 00:35:37,010
But I really took you
for a thief for a moment.

543
00:35:38,010 --> 00:35:39,380
I learned the trick from Chen Lian.

544
00:35:39,690 --> 00:35:40,730
He said the water trace

545
00:35:41,050 --> 00:35:42,250
could lead us to the thief.

546
00:35:45,490 --> 00:35:48,210
Pan'er looks pale.

547
00:35:48,580 --> 00:35:50,420
Has she been working too hard

548
00:35:50,530 --> 00:35:51,180
managing Yong'an Restaurant?

549
00:35:52,450 --> 00:35:53,180
Mr. Gu,

550
00:35:53,620 --> 00:35:55,010
do you think you still have the right

551
00:35:55,010 --> 00:35:55,940
to be concerned about her?

552
00:35:56,340 --> 00:35:57,580
Zhaodi, that's enough.

553
00:36:00,140 --> 00:36:01,100
You need to leave now.

554
00:37:15,180 --> 00:37:17,380
Harder. I don't feel anything.

555
00:37:18,290 --> 00:37:19,940
You'll get a scratch if I go harder.

556
00:37:20,100 --> 00:37:22,340
Damaging your body is a serious crime.

557
00:37:23,580 --> 00:37:24,420
You're the Empress.

558
00:37:24,970 --> 00:37:26,180
You and I are one.

559
00:37:26,290 --> 00:37:27,770
No one will convict you of that.

560
00:37:30,620 --> 00:37:31,860
(Liu Wan, the Empress)
Ke Zheng

561
00:37:32,010 --> 00:37:33,210
and Qi Mu,

562
00:37:33,900 --> 00:37:35,210
and all the other upright officials

563
00:37:35,210 --> 00:37:37,380
think I'm stealing the power.

564
00:37:37,970 --> 00:37:39,530
They all wish me to disappear.

565
00:37:45,970 --> 00:37:48,420
That's what speech officials do.

566
00:37:49,730 --> 00:37:53,010
When Ke Zheng presented
himself before me,

567
00:37:53,660 --> 00:37:56,420
I nearly got his spit on my face.

568
00:37:58,860 --> 00:38:00,100
Just bear with them.

569
00:38:02,010 --> 00:38:02,970
They know

570
00:38:03,010 --> 00:38:05,420
I give you the authority
to review the memorials

571
00:38:06,530 --> 00:38:08,730
because my migraine is back again.

572
00:38:09,340 --> 00:38:12,530
Just look at it this way,
they're criticizing me.

573
00:38:13,620 --> 00:38:14,970
You're my husband.

574
00:38:14,970 --> 00:38:16,100
I still feel bad.

575
00:38:16,900 --> 00:38:18,660
The pomegranate blossom
is red as fire.

576
00:38:19,580 --> 00:38:21,660
Do you know there's a dish

577
00:38:21,660 --> 00:38:22,940
called Peach Blossom in Snow
at Yong'an Restaurant?

578
00:38:23,420 --> 00:38:25,420
It's pomegranate seeds
in sour cream cake.

579
00:38:25,620 --> 00:38:26,770
Red dots in white.

580
00:38:26,770 --> 00:38:29,180
The maids are gossiping again.

581
00:38:29,180 --> 00:38:30,010
(Did you try it?)

582
00:38:30,050 --> 00:38:30,860
(No.)

583
00:38:30,970 --> 00:38:31,820
It's fine.

584
00:38:31,820 --> 00:38:34,210
(They told me, it looks pretty
and tastes delicious.)

585
00:38:35,010 --> 00:38:37,140
Look at them.

586
00:38:37,490 --> 00:38:39,010
They are only

587
00:38:39,180 --> 00:38:40,770
about five years older than Shouyi.

588
00:38:41,050 --> 00:38:42,210
Why must you regulate them?

589
00:38:43,580 --> 00:38:45,420
When I see them,

590
00:38:45,690 --> 00:38:48,860
it reminds me of years ago

591
00:38:49,450 --> 00:38:51,580
- when I just met you.
- (What else?)

592
00:38:51,580 --> 00:38:52,340
Tell me more.

593
00:38:52,620 --> 00:38:54,820
Also, there's Wazi

594
00:38:54,860 --> 00:38:56,620
in Wanshui Pavilion.

595
00:38:56,970 --> 00:38:59,770
I've heard there's even
a female wrestling game.

596
00:39:00,140 --> 00:39:01,420
When I'm on my days off,

597
00:39:01,420 --> 00:39:02,420
I have to check that out.

598
00:39:08,820 --> 00:39:10,660
The cross talk is over.

599
00:39:11,620 --> 00:39:12,900
Is this Yong'an Restaurant

600
00:39:13,140 --> 00:39:14,250
that nice?

601
00:39:16,070 --> 00:39:16,730
How about this?

602
00:39:17,580 --> 00:39:20,660
When I get better,

603
00:39:21,010 --> 00:39:22,340
I'll take you out.

604
00:39:22,340 --> 00:39:23,420
We'll try something new as well.

605
00:39:24,580 --> 00:39:26,580
Thank you in advance, Your Majesty.

606
00:39:28,580 --> 00:39:29,940
You're coughing again.

607
00:39:30,210 --> 00:39:31,180
It's fine. It's fine.

608
00:39:31,660 --> 00:39:34,450
Maybe it's just the summer heat.

609
00:39:34,690 --> 00:39:37,100
I've summoned Taoist Baoyi here
to give me a lecture.

610
00:39:37,180 --> 00:39:41,050
It may calm me down.

611
00:39:42,100 --> 00:39:44,940
I'll make you some pear soup.

612
00:39:45,620 --> 00:39:46,490
Thanks.

613
00:39:52,970 --> 00:39:53,940
26.

614
00:39:54,100 --> 00:39:55,210
27.

615
00:39:56,180 --> 00:39:57,180
28.

616
00:39:57,380 --> 00:39:58,210
29.

617
00:39:58,450 --> 00:39:59,250
30.

618
00:39:59,250 --> 00:39:59,970
What are you counting?

619
00:40:00,530 --> 00:40:01,820
Money.

620
00:40:02,380 --> 00:40:03,730
I did a little calculation last night.

621
00:40:04,050 --> 00:40:06,900
This is how much we make
from one person.

622
00:40:09,050 --> 00:40:10,490
I'm surprised that Mr. Chi

623
00:40:10,490 --> 00:40:11,940
cares about the small money.

624
00:40:12,210 --> 00:40:13,690
The money you make
from Yong'an Restaurant

625
00:40:13,820 --> 00:40:15,820
doesn't even cover 10 percent
of your investment.

626
00:40:15,940 --> 00:40:18,010
And you normally spend more
in a gambling club a day

627
00:40:18,010 --> 00:40:19,010
than this.

628
00:40:19,250 --> 00:40:20,290
41.

629
00:40:20,660 --> 00:40:23,380
That's less fun than this.

630
00:40:23,490 --> 00:40:24,900
If I know nothing else
other than having fun,

631
00:40:24,900 --> 00:40:27,140
I can't be the Head
of 12 Guilds in the Eastern Capital.

632
00:40:27,420 --> 00:40:29,010
Now, the entire city knows

633
00:40:29,100 --> 00:40:30,660
how wonderful

634
00:40:30,660 --> 00:40:31,620
our Flower and Moon Banquet

635
00:40:31,620 --> 00:40:32,530
and the recreation of paintings are.

636
00:40:32,860 --> 00:40:35,660
No one thinks that the 50-string
entry ticket is expensive.

637
00:40:36,100 --> 00:40:37,140
In my opinion,

638
00:40:37,620 --> 00:40:39,940
we should hold the banquet every day

639
00:40:40,180 --> 00:40:41,620
instead of once in every ten days.

640
00:40:41,770 --> 00:40:42,970
Look at all those who have made
the reservations down there.

641
00:40:43,900 --> 00:40:44,900
No.

642
00:40:45,010 --> 00:40:46,490
It wouldn't interest them.

643
00:40:46,580 --> 00:40:48,290
Do you know the value of scarcity?

644
00:40:49,210 --> 00:40:50,530
The value of scarcity?

645
00:40:50,970 --> 00:40:51,730
Yeah, yeah, yeah.

646
00:40:53,180 --> 00:40:53,860
Oh, right.

647
00:40:54,380 --> 00:40:55,450
I asked He Si

648
00:40:55,450 --> 00:40:58,010
to pry for intelligence
at the Wang's and the Pan's.

649
00:40:58,100 --> 00:40:59,250
Guess what they said?

650
00:40:59,860 --> 00:41:02,620
The entire restaurant guild
hates our gut.

651
00:41:05,450 --> 00:41:06,530
That's normal.

652
00:41:06,690 --> 00:41:08,690
If they don't,
then we should do better.

653
00:41:12,580 --> 00:41:13,210
Your Majesty,

654
00:41:13,690 --> 00:41:16,580
Ouyang Xu, the Collator, is waiting
to see you outside

655
00:41:16,580 --> 00:41:17,580
with Baoyi's panegyric
for Heaven in hand.

656
00:41:19,970 --> 00:41:21,450
Baoyi wrote more panegyrics?

657
00:41:22,010 --> 00:41:23,210
Why did he send Ouyang Xu

658
00:41:23,450 --> 00:41:24,770
instead of coming to see me in person?

659
00:41:27,770 --> 00:41:28,450
Summon him.

660
00:41:29,050 --> 00:41:29,820
Yes.

661
00:41:37,490 --> 00:41:38,490
Hail, Your Majesty.

662
00:41:38,740 --> 00:41:39,440
Yeah.

663
00:41:40,580 --> 00:41:41,290
Present it to me.

664
00:41:41,940 --> 00:41:42,620
Arise.

665
00:41:45,620 --> 00:41:47,290
Your Majesty, I'm guilty.

666
00:41:48,180 --> 00:41:50,580
I wangled my way into the imperial palace
using Mr. Baoyi as a pretext.

667
00:41:50,730 --> 00:41:52,490
But I have to report
something important to you.

668
00:41:53,050 --> 00:41:54,860
It's a matter of urgency
that concerns the whole nation.

669
00:41:54,970 --> 00:41:56,420
So I took my chances.

670
00:41:56,770 --> 00:41:58,340
Please pardon me.

671
00:42:01,820 --> 00:42:03,620
What is this thing
that concerns the whole nation?

672
00:42:07,290 --> 00:42:09,620
Could we please have some privacy?

673
00:42:20,970 --> 00:42:22,010
Arise and speak.

674
00:42:22,690 --> 00:42:23,580
Thank you, Your Majesty.

675
00:42:33,290 --> 00:42:35,250
Here's my impeachment
against the Empress.

676
00:42:35,820 --> 00:42:36,730
