[Moonlit Reunion]

00:01:33,440 --> 00:01:35,960
[Adapted from Fuhua's novel,
Mrs. Mei's Way of Love]

3
00:01:36,000 --> 00:01:38,730
[Episode 18]

4
00:01:40,680 --> 00:01:43,040
Mr. Mei, how did you know
about Conscious Imbuement?

5
00:01:44,510 --> 00:01:46,120
Records Repository at Xuanjian Division

6
00:01:46,710 --> 00:01:48,350
have records of such dark arts

7
00:01:48,350 --> 00:01:50,150
from sixty years ago.

8
00:01:51,560 --> 00:01:52,760
You can even remember that.

9
00:01:52,790 --> 00:01:53,840
You have a really good memory.

10
00:01:55,000 --> 00:01:57,680
Si was harmed without reason today.
It's really eerie.

11
00:01:57,870 --> 00:02:00,230
Ms. Wu, are you alright today?

12
00:02:01,230 --> 00:02:02,280
Safe and sound.

13
00:02:02,920 --> 00:02:04,120
And you, Mr. Mei?

14
00:02:05,150 --> 00:02:06,070
All is well.

15
00:02:08,920 --> 00:02:10,590
How long do you plan to

16
00:02:10,760 --> 00:02:12,560
stay at the Duke's Mansion this time?

17
00:02:13,430 --> 00:02:14,590
You once said

18
00:02:15,030 --> 00:02:17,840
you could afford to
keep even a few more people like me.

19
00:02:19,310 --> 00:02:20,960
Being able to afford it is one thing.

20
00:02:21,470 --> 00:02:23,710
Whether I want to or not is another.

21
00:02:24,560 --> 00:02:26,630
After all, you said you were leaving,

22
00:02:27,400 --> 00:02:29,150
but now you're refusing to go.

23
00:02:30,120 --> 00:02:31,750
It makes people wonder.

24
00:02:32,960 --> 00:02:35,960
You said you don't care
what others think.

25
00:02:36,150 --> 00:02:38,000
What if I want to care now?

26
00:02:42,360 --> 00:02:44,000
You know, my father keeps asking

27
00:02:44,840 --> 00:02:46,800
whom I would choose
between you and my cousin.

28
00:02:48,240 --> 00:02:50,120
I need to come up with excuses for you

29
00:02:50,800 --> 00:02:53,400
to stop him from misunderstanding.

30
00:02:58,750 --> 00:02:59,800
Right, Jiya?

31
00:03:13,710 --> 00:03:15,030
It's so late.

32
00:03:15,430 --> 00:03:17,000
Jiya, what are you doing here?

33
00:03:17,470 --> 00:03:18,630
I was worried

34
00:03:19,190 --> 00:03:20,080
when you didn't return,

35
00:03:20,360 --> 00:03:21,430
so I came to check.

36
00:03:22,840 --> 00:03:24,190
You've probably forgotten.

37
00:03:24,430 --> 00:03:26,120
I love to revel

38
00:03:26,240 --> 00:03:27,430
and feast every night.

39
00:03:27,590 --> 00:03:28,840
So

40
00:03:28,910 --> 00:03:31,240
it's normal for me to come home late.

41
00:03:31,840 --> 00:03:33,280
Nothing to worry about.

42
00:03:33,520 --> 00:03:35,960
Zhen, you're still as witty as ever.

43
00:03:37,310 --> 00:03:38,120
But

44
00:03:38,910 --> 00:03:41,190
Mr. Mei, why are you here?

45
00:03:41,750 --> 00:03:44,000
Did you go enjoy

46
00:03:44,000 --> 00:03:45,430
music and dance with Zhen?

47
00:03:45,840 --> 00:03:47,000
Just ran into each other.

48
00:03:53,710 --> 00:03:57,430
Mr. Mei, you and Zhen
seem to have a connection.

49
00:03:58,520 --> 00:04:00,910
Ms. Wu and I are indeed connected.

50
00:04:04,190 --> 00:04:05,960
Zhen, it's getting late.

51
00:04:06,030 --> 00:04:06,840
Let's go back.

52
00:04:08,430 --> 00:04:09,360
Jiya, watch out!

53
00:04:16,310 --> 00:04:20,400
Mr. Pei, you should
watch your step in the future.

54
00:04:20,750 --> 00:04:21,870
I have Zhen with me,

55
00:04:22,390 --> 00:04:24,720
so no need for your concern.

56
00:04:34,160 --> 00:04:35,720
Chang'an isn't all that great.

57
00:04:36,070 --> 00:04:37,560
Not as lively as Kun.

58
00:04:37,830 --> 00:04:39,240
What's so lively about it?

59
00:04:39,750 --> 00:04:42,720
The people live peaceful lives.

60
00:04:43,510 --> 00:04:44,830
If you don't believe me,

61
00:04:45,120 --> 00:04:46,480
why not come back with me and see?

62
00:04:47,360 --> 00:04:49,360
Kun is now beautiful
with pristine nature

63
00:04:49,800 --> 00:04:50,870
and remarkable talent.

64
00:04:51,270 --> 00:04:53,720
I'm sure you won't want to leave.

65
00:04:55,720 --> 00:04:57,070
I'll think about it.

66
00:04:59,160 --> 00:05:01,270
I'm sleepy. I'm going to bed.

67
00:05:09,000 --> 00:05:09,800
Mr. Mei,

68
00:05:10,360 --> 00:05:13,040
do you think Zhen will say yes to me?

69
00:05:14,750 --> 00:05:15,510
I don't know.

70
00:05:16,830 --> 00:05:17,680
I think

71
00:05:21,480 --> 00:05:22,390
she will.

72
00:05:24,270 --> 00:05:26,800
No one else could
hold her in their heart

73
00:05:27,510 --> 00:05:28,870
like I do.

74
00:05:29,070 --> 00:05:31,240
And I've done that for over a decade,

75
00:05:31,830 --> 00:05:33,070
treating her

76
00:05:34,000 --> 00:05:35,040
like a real treasure.

77
00:05:39,430 --> 00:05:40,190
By the way,

78
00:05:40,310 --> 00:05:43,070
you once offered blessings
to me and her.

79
00:05:43,160 --> 00:05:45,240
Surely you won't

80
00:05:45,310 --> 00:05:46,430
go back on your word.

81
00:05:47,270 --> 00:05:48,270
What I said was that

82
00:05:49,480 --> 00:05:51,720
if you truly care for each other,

83
00:05:51,920 --> 00:05:53,360
heaven will not disappoint your wishes.

84
00:05:54,480 --> 00:05:55,070
I just don't know

85
00:05:55,070 --> 00:05:58,680
if you and Ms. Wu truly feel the same.

86
00:06:04,560 --> 00:06:07,480
[Purchased by Mr. Pei from Chang'an]

87
00:06:20,560 --> 00:06:22,270
This lantern is for you, Mr. Pei.

88
00:06:23,040 --> 00:06:24,270
In the future, you should really

89
00:06:25,160 --> 00:06:27,120
watch your step at night.

90
00:06:42,600 --> 00:06:43,720
My Lord, don't be angry.

91
00:06:44,480 --> 00:06:47,870
That guy can never compare to you.

92
00:06:48,120 --> 00:06:49,430
What an eyesore.

93
00:06:59,190 --> 00:07:00,750
Chang'an is so peaceful.

94
00:07:01,040 --> 00:07:02,040
I wonder how the ink

95
00:07:02,360 --> 00:07:03,600
is doing right now.

96
00:07:30,480 --> 00:07:31,870
I'll have it sealed in the Demon Prison

97
00:07:32,070 --> 00:07:33,310
to prevent any further trouble.

98
00:07:35,190 --> 00:07:37,800
Zhen, are you staying
in the Demon Market tonight?

99
00:07:39,430 --> 00:07:40,870
I've had quite a day.

100
00:07:41,070 --> 00:07:42,750
It wasn't easy bringing it back.

101
00:07:42,830 --> 00:07:44,190
I need to go home and rest.

102
00:07:45,560 --> 00:07:46,360
Fine.

103
00:07:57,390 --> 00:07:58,120
Shu,

104
00:07:59,390 --> 00:08:00,920
since you're going to the Demon Prison,

105
00:08:01,190 --> 00:08:03,160
could you help me fetch something
while you're there?

106
00:08:20,000 --> 00:08:20,830
Mr. Shu.

107
00:08:24,040 --> 00:08:26,480
Mr. Shu, are you heading to
the Demon Prison?

108
00:08:26,920 --> 00:08:27,750
Yes.

109
00:08:27,750 --> 00:08:29,070
Do you want me to go with you?

110
00:08:29,120 --> 00:08:30,310
I've got nothing else to do anyway.

111
00:08:31,310 --> 00:08:32,430
Are you really free today?

112
00:08:33,830 --> 00:08:35,390
After dealing with An Biluo,

113
00:08:35,630 --> 00:08:37,910
Snake Lord granted me two days off.

114
00:08:38,750 --> 00:08:40,270
I've got plenty of time to spare.

115
00:08:40,870 --> 00:08:42,000
So I've just been wandering around.

116
00:08:44,360 --> 00:08:46,120
I've heard there's been some trouble
in the human realm again.

117
00:08:46,270 --> 00:08:47,270
Is the Cat Lord alright?

118
00:08:48,910 --> 00:08:50,960
Someone cast dark arts
on this ink stick.

119
00:08:51,150 --> 00:08:52,790
Fortunately, it was brought back.

120
00:08:53,150 --> 00:08:54,440
The Cat Lord wasn't hurt.

121
00:08:54,790 --> 00:08:55,840
This little thing

122
00:08:55,960 --> 00:08:58,120
caused so much chaos in Chang'an?

123
00:09:04,240 --> 00:09:05,720
Are you a dog demon?

124
00:09:05,870 --> 00:09:06,670
This smell.

125
00:09:07,550 --> 00:09:08,390
Something's off.

126
00:09:08,790 --> 00:09:09,630
What's wrong?

127
00:09:19,870 --> 00:09:21,030
It's Qilin Horn Resin.

128
00:09:22,120 --> 00:09:23,120
Qilin Horn Resin?

129
00:09:25,440 --> 00:09:28,630
No wonder this ink stick is so powerful
in transforming through dark arts.

130
00:09:29,510 --> 00:09:31,120
There might be more to this.

131
00:10:18,080 --> 00:10:19,000
Elder Bai.

132
00:10:21,870 --> 00:10:24,840
Mr. Shu, are you here
to memorize the Demon Laws again?

133
00:10:27,120 --> 00:10:29,670
The Demon Laws are on the first floor.

134
00:10:35,150 --> 00:10:35,750
Well then...

135
00:10:36,240 --> 00:10:38,320
Feel free to look around.

136
00:10:38,480 --> 00:10:39,670
I'll attend to my duties.

137
00:10:39,790 --> 00:10:40,720
Elder Bai,

138
00:10:41,240 --> 00:10:44,670
I thought managing the Demon Prison
was arduous.

139
00:10:45,270 --> 00:10:47,120
Didn't expect you
to be slacking off here.

140
00:10:47,550 --> 00:10:49,270
Mr. Shu, you've got it all wrong.

141
00:10:49,510 --> 00:10:51,200
I'm utterly swamped with work.

142
00:10:51,270 --> 00:10:51,750
Let me tell you...

143
00:10:51,750 --> 00:10:54,510
Which floor was Xuan Hui
originally imprisoned on?

144
00:10:57,720 --> 00:10:59,840
He's on the third floor.

145
00:11:01,030 --> 00:11:03,030
Please lead the way.

146
00:11:04,840 --> 00:11:05,550
Let's go.

147
00:11:12,360 --> 00:11:14,480
The Demon Prison has three floors.

148
00:11:14,480 --> 00:11:16,870
Those with deeper sins
are imprisoned on higher floors.

149
00:11:17,480 --> 00:11:19,480
Xuan Hui started on the first floor.

150
00:11:19,720 --> 00:11:21,240
After escaping
and being caught three times,

151
00:11:21,360 --> 00:11:22,510
he was moved to the second.

152
00:11:22,510 --> 00:11:23,480
Mr. Shu, let me out!

153
00:11:23,480 --> 00:11:24,600
After six more times,

154
00:11:24,600 --> 00:11:26,150
he ended up on the current third floor.

155
00:11:27,080 --> 00:11:28,480
If he's caught again this time,

156
00:11:28,750 --> 00:11:30,440
there might not be a place for him here.

157
00:11:31,030 --> 00:11:32,600
This is where he's imprisoned.

158
00:11:40,240 --> 00:11:41,120
Mr. Shu,

159
00:11:41,270 --> 00:11:43,150
why are you taking
Xuan Hui's Mirror of Clarity?

160
00:11:44,030 --> 00:11:47,150
The Mirror of Clarity records
the crimes of guilty demons.

161
00:11:48,080 --> 00:11:49,000
I'm taking it

162
00:11:49,000 --> 00:11:50,870
to ensure Xuan Hui is recaptured sooner.

163
00:11:51,510 --> 00:11:53,080
This matter does not concern you.

164
00:11:53,630 --> 00:11:55,790
True. None of my business anyway.

165
00:11:55,790 --> 00:11:57,000
I couldn't care less.

166
00:12:08,240 --> 00:12:09,750
Who's imprisoned in here?

167
00:12:10,120 --> 00:12:10,910
No one.

168
00:12:16,120 --> 00:12:17,910
This is the most secure cell

169
00:12:17,910 --> 00:12:19,360
in the entire Demon Prison.

170
00:12:19,550 --> 00:12:21,480
It restrains the demonic power
of the prisoner.

171
00:12:22,200 --> 00:12:25,080
Eighteen years ago,
Malevolent Phantom struck at Chang'an.

172
00:12:25,510 --> 00:12:27,440
We intended to capture it
and imprison it here,

173
00:12:27,790 --> 00:12:29,750
but it was killed
by the previous Cat Lord.

174
00:12:29,840 --> 00:12:31,200
So this cell
has remained empty ever since.

175
00:12:32,550 --> 00:12:35,550
Did it have any close followers?

176
00:12:36,510 --> 00:12:38,000
Who knows?

177
00:12:38,510 --> 00:12:40,200
The master is already dead.

178
00:12:40,440 --> 00:12:42,390
Even if there were
any remaining followers,

179
00:12:42,440 --> 00:12:44,000
they should have been wiped out.

180
00:12:44,000 --> 00:12:45,240
I see.

181
00:13:03,480 --> 00:13:05,320
Qiangyijun!

182
00:13:15,870 --> 00:13:17,910
Back then, Malevolent Phantom

183
00:13:18,320 --> 00:13:21,360
proclaimed itself the greatest deity
in the demon realm,

184
00:13:21,440 --> 00:13:23,080
destined to control everything.

185
00:13:23,790 --> 00:13:27,270
Yet now, it's been reduced
to nothingness.

186
00:13:33,750 --> 00:13:35,360
Malevolent Phantom.

187
00:13:35,910 --> 00:13:37,240
What about a deity?

188
00:13:37,360 --> 00:13:38,600
What about me?

189
00:13:39,360 --> 00:13:40,600
In this world,

190
00:13:41,240 --> 00:13:43,510
she is far more precious

191
00:13:44,550 --> 00:13:46,270
than you or me.

192
00:13:51,870 --> 00:13:53,840
What? Qilin Horn Resin?

193
00:13:55,270 --> 00:13:56,080
What a coincidence.

194
00:13:56,840 --> 00:13:57,960
A piece of Qilin Horn Resin

195
00:13:57,960 --> 00:13:59,360
went missing at the Incense Contest
in the mortal realm.

196
00:13:59,630 --> 00:14:01,440
And now another one appears so soon.

197
00:14:02,200 --> 00:14:04,200
It seems Chang'an is extremely wealthy.

198
00:14:05,150 --> 00:14:05,960
Ling Xiao,

199
00:14:06,960 --> 00:14:08,840
have you considered

200
00:14:09,440 --> 00:14:12,600
that these two might actually be
the same piece of Qilin Horn Resin?

201
00:14:13,510 --> 00:14:14,720
These two are the same piece...

202
00:14:18,030 --> 00:14:18,840
That makes sense.

203
00:14:18,960 --> 00:14:20,630
No wonder Huang Yi and the others

204
00:14:20,910 --> 00:14:21,480
couldn't find the missing piece

205
00:14:21,480 --> 00:14:23,240
after the Incense Contest.

206
00:14:23,750 --> 00:14:25,240
So this is the reason.

207
00:14:27,240 --> 00:14:28,960
The Qilin Horn Resin
is related to the ink demon.

208
00:14:29,120 --> 00:14:30,600
Find another piece to cover this up.

209
00:14:30,840 --> 00:14:32,000
Don't let the Jinwu Guard
investigate further.

210
00:14:34,720 --> 00:14:35,480
Golden-Winged Bird.

211
00:14:37,080 --> 00:14:37,910
Coming, coming.

212
00:14:39,630 --> 00:14:41,910
Ms. Huzhu, what do you need?

213
00:14:41,910 --> 00:14:43,440
Search around the Demon Market.

214
00:14:43,440 --> 00:14:45,270
I need a new piece of Qilin Horn Resin.

215
00:14:45,960 --> 00:14:46,750
Alright.

216
00:14:49,870 --> 00:14:52,240
Lately, the Golden-Winged Bird
has been really hard to deal with.

217
00:14:52,270 --> 00:14:53,320
It wouldn't even give me a discount.

218
00:14:53,670 --> 00:14:54,790
Why is it so obedient today?

219
00:14:55,200 --> 00:14:56,030
Because

220
00:14:56,670 --> 00:14:58,150
I bought this tavern!

221
00:14:58,320 --> 00:14:59,600
I'm its boss now.

222
00:14:59,600 --> 00:15:00,960
You bought this tavern?

223
00:15:01,390 --> 00:15:02,080
When?

224
00:15:02,600 --> 00:15:04,270
When it stopped giving you discounts.

225
00:15:04,270 --> 00:15:04,870
Stop...

226
00:15:06,000 --> 00:15:06,840
- I would never...
- I don't care if you come or not.

227
00:15:06,840 --> 00:15:07,750
Ms. Huzhu,

228
00:15:08,150 --> 00:15:09,270
I managed to find this

229
00:15:09,270 --> 00:15:11,030
at the general store.

230
00:15:11,120 --> 00:15:13,870
It's the only one
in the entire Demon Market.

231
00:15:14,360 --> 00:15:15,790
The only one?

232
00:15:17,360 --> 00:15:18,720
Then it must be really valuable.

233
00:15:19,720 --> 00:15:20,750
It's free.

234
00:15:21,600 --> 00:15:22,390
Free?

235
00:15:24,120 --> 00:15:25,960
Because that general store

236
00:15:27,320 --> 00:15:28,440
is also mine.

237
00:15:28,440 --> 00:15:29,600
The general store is yours too?

238
00:15:32,390 --> 00:15:33,670
What other shops do you own?

239
00:15:34,030 --> 00:15:35,360
What else don't I know?

240
00:15:37,470 --> 00:15:40,600
[Wuzi Pavilion]

241
00:15:44,840 --> 00:15:46,240
You're looking for Liu Taizhen?

242
00:15:47,120 --> 00:15:48,360
Yes, Zhen.

243
00:15:48,670 --> 00:15:51,150
Where exactly has Ms. Liu gone
to recuperate?

244
00:15:51,270 --> 00:15:52,870
People from Liu Mansion says
she's been away for days

245
00:15:53,000 --> 00:15:54,270
without any word.

246
00:15:54,480 --> 00:15:57,200
Now there are rumors of demons
in Chang'an again.

247
00:15:57,840 --> 00:15:59,960
I'm worried something
might have happened to her.

248
00:16:00,960 --> 00:16:03,510
Those rumors have already died down.

249
00:16:04,480 --> 00:16:06,270
Yes, they have.

250
00:16:06,440 --> 00:16:09,270
But that doesn't mean
there are no demons.

251
00:16:09,910 --> 00:16:12,440
Though Lady Liu likes tales
about demons and strange phenomena,

252
00:16:13,320 --> 00:16:14,720
fondness is one thing.

253
00:16:14,790 --> 00:16:15,790
If she actually encounters one,

254
00:16:16,120 --> 00:16:17,390
she still needs to be cautious.

255
00:16:18,200 --> 00:16:20,270
Don't worry. She'll be fine.

256
00:16:21,080 --> 00:16:23,120
Zhen, according to the time
you mentioned,

257
00:16:23,120 --> 00:16:24,670
she should have returned by now.

258
00:16:29,000 --> 00:16:30,320
That's true.

259
00:16:32,790 --> 00:16:35,000
No, I have to go find her.

260
00:16:36,150 --> 00:16:37,320
Stop playing!

261
00:16:38,200 --> 00:16:38,910
Zhen, tell me,

262
00:16:38,910 --> 00:16:40,240
where exactly has she gone?

263
00:16:41,910 --> 00:16:42,840
South of Chang'an.

264
00:16:43,960 --> 00:16:44,670
Luwei Mountain.

265
00:16:49,750 --> 00:16:50,790
Thank you, Mr. Shu.

266
00:16:53,480 --> 00:16:54,630
Snake Lord hasn't returned yet.

267
00:16:54,840 --> 00:16:56,270
We should send someone to look for her.

268
00:16:56,720 --> 00:16:58,320
But it shouldn't be Si.

269
00:16:58,720 --> 00:17:00,200
There are many demons
in those mountains.

270
00:17:00,270 --> 00:17:01,870
It's not safe for him.

271
00:17:03,270 --> 00:17:06,030
Zhen, you only care
about people's safety,

272
00:17:06,390 --> 00:17:08,670
yet you don't realize
that having someone to love

273
00:17:09,000 --> 00:17:10,400
is one of life's greatest blessings.

274
00:17:11,200 --> 00:17:13,350
That matters far more
than surviving alone.

275
00:17:15,510 --> 00:17:18,070
I'm just putting myself

276
00:17:18,350 --> 00:17:19,790
in their shoes.

277
00:17:42,420 --> 00:17:46,960
[Duke of Wu's Mansion]

278
00:18:08,590 --> 00:18:09,310
Come on.

279
00:18:09,750 --> 00:18:11,110
Come on, come on.

280
00:18:22,200 --> 00:18:23,440
Mr. Mei,

281
00:18:24,350 --> 00:18:27,070
is there something wrong with the food?

282
00:18:27,830 --> 00:18:28,440
No.

283
00:18:29,030 --> 00:18:31,240
I just didn't expect

284
00:18:31,240 --> 00:18:33,240
such a lavish breakfast today.

285
00:18:34,350 --> 00:18:37,480
Mr. Mei, you usually eat simply,
so you might not know.

286
00:18:38,070 --> 00:18:39,960
My uncle is a Duke,

287
00:18:40,350 --> 00:18:42,960
so this is quite ordinary for breakfast.

288
00:19:10,550 --> 00:19:11,880
Zhen, come here.

289
00:19:12,200 --> 00:19:13,480
Come have breakfast.

290
00:19:13,480 --> 00:19:14,400
What were you all discussing?

291
00:19:17,920 --> 00:19:18,830
Mr. Mei was surprised

292
00:19:18,830 --> 00:19:20,960
by how sumptuous the breakfast here is.

293
00:19:20,960 --> 00:19:22,350
I was just about to tell Uncle

294
00:19:22,350 --> 00:19:23,960
about a reclusive master.

295
00:19:24,590 --> 00:19:26,310
He's quite knowledgeable about cuisine.

296
00:19:26,640 --> 00:19:29,880
I'll invite him here
to take care of Zhen.

297
00:19:31,160 --> 00:19:32,750
Don't bother.

298
00:19:34,200 --> 00:19:37,350
Why, Jiya? Do you find
the hospitality here lacking?

299
00:19:37,640 --> 00:19:38,550
Of course not.

300
00:19:39,270 --> 00:19:41,070
Since I intend to marry you,

301
00:19:41,510 --> 00:19:43,110
it's only right that I think for you.

302
00:19:43,750 --> 00:19:45,640
I hope you can live even better.

303
00:19:49,000 --> 00:19:50,830
Jiya,

304
00:19:51,240 --> 00:19:55,110
you mentioned the other day
that you wished to marry Zhen.

305
00:19:56,640 --> 00:19:58,160
Are you sincere about this?

306
00:19:58,160 --> 00:19:58,920
Of course.

307
00:20:00,270 --> 00:20:02,310
My mother hasn't been well lately

308
00:20:02,310 --> 00:20:03,270
and can't manage the household.

309
00:20:03,400 --> 00:20:06,510
So Zhen would become the mistress
of the Pei family upon marriage.

310
00:20:07,310 --> 00:20:08,480
I swear

311
00:20:08,480 --> 00:20:10,960
I will never
take concubines in this lifetime.

312
00:20:11,510 --> 00:20:13,680
Good. Not taking concubines is good.

313
00:20:14,070 --> 00:20:16,350
It seems you are
wholeheartedly devoted to Zhen.

314
00:20:16,640 --> 00:20:18,270
Mr. Mei,

315
00:20:19,160 --> 00:20:20,790
do you have anything to say?

316
00:20:24,310 --> 00:20:25,000
No.

317
00:20:26,960 --> 00:20:28,440
Are you planning to take concubines?

318
00:20:29,070 --> 00:20:30,160
Mr. Wu, you misunderstand.

319
00:20:30,750 --> 00:20:33,480
I just haven't thought about marriage.

320
00:20:39,030 --> 00:20:42,200
Mr. Mei, what do you think
of the marriage

321
00:20:43,920 --> 00:20:45,110
between me and Jiya?

322
00:20:46,240 --> 00:20:48,640
That depends on
how you feel about it, Ms. Wu.

323
00:20:53,350 --> 00:20:54,200
Duke!

324
00:20:58,310 --> 00:21:00,350
My Lord, My Lady.

325
00:21:00,400 --> 00:21:02,310
Mr. Feng, what brings you here?

326
00:21:03,000 --> 00:21:04,510
His Majesty and Her Majesty

327
00:21:04,510 --> 00:21:06,680
want you to go to the palace.

328
00:21:08,400 --> 00:21:10,200
They found out about me

329
00:21:10,200 --> 00:21:11,480
buying magical artifacts again?

330
00:21:13,000 --> 00:21:14,350
Sir, rest assured.

331
00:21:14,400 --> 00:21:16,110
This time it's not about you.

332
00:21:16,440 --> 00:21:17,720
It's about the Princess.

333
00:21:19,030 --> 00:21:19,920
Yuanzhen?

334
00:21:21,480 --> 00:21:23,030
The white camellia tree
in the Imperial Garden

335
00:21:23,270 --> 00:21:24,830
was the Princess's favorite.

336
00:21:25,000 --> 00:21:27,480
For some reason,
it suddenly withered and died.

337
00:21:27,960 --> 00:21:30,720
So His Majesty and Her Majesty
had it cut down.

338
00:21:31,640 --> 00:21:33,440
The Princess has been heartbroken,

339
00:21:33,640 --> 00:21:35,400
crying nonstop ever since.

340
00:21:39,350 --> 00:21:41,640
Let's go. Slowly.

341
00:22:08,000 --> 00:22:10,160
My Lord, it's time for your medicine.

342
00:23:57,480 --> 00:24:00,160
Mr. Mei, I didn't expect you
to have such tastes.

343
00:24:00,310 --> 00:24:02,680
You enjoy playing the prowler,
don't you?

344
00:24:03,240 --> 00:24:04,750
If not for that,

345
00:24:04,830 --> 00:24:07,640
how could I have caught you
in such suspicious acts, Mr. Pei?

346
00:24:08,920 --> 00:24:10,070
What are you talking about?

347
00:24:10,550 --> 00:24:12,400
I've always been grateful

348
00:24:12,400 --> 00:24:14,310
for your help at the inn.

349
00:24:15,510 --> 00:24:18,160
How have I offended you?

350
00:24:18,350 --> 00:24:20,440
Why would you frame me?

351
00:24:21,000 --> 00:24:22,200
Creating tales of demons

352
00:24:22,480 --> 00:24:24,030
and trying to cause chaos in Chang'an.

353
00:24:24,440 --> 00:24:25,720
How is that framing?

354
00:24:26,550 --> 00:24:29,000
Tales of the demons
have existed since ancient times.

355
00:24:29,200 --> 00:24:32,720
Lately, for some reason, the people
of Chang'an have been bringing them up.

356
00:24:33,030 --> 00:24:34,440
But they're just rumors.

357
00:24:35,270 --> 00:24:38,510
Mei, Mei, why are you
asking me about this so seriously?

358
00:24:38,920 --> 00:24:40,880
You know the answer yourself.

359
00:24:49,510 --> 00:24:52,510
Mr. Mei, why don't you
come in and search?

360
00:24:53,160 --> 00:24:55,270
I just want to remind you

361
00:24:55,680 --> 00:24:57,350
that those who walk in darkness

362
00:24:59,750 --> 00:25:01,920
will eventually be consumed by it.

363
00:25:30,920 --> 00:25:31,750
My Lord.

364
00:25:32,240 --> 00:25:34,920
Mr. Mei knows. Could this be trouble?

365
00:25:35,920 --> 00:25:36,640
It's fine.

366
00:25:37,680 --> 00:25:41,070
Anyway, we can't keep him alive.

367
00:25:51,200 --> 00:25:53,400
There, there, no more tears.

368
00:25:54,750 --> 00:25:55,640
Yuanzhen, be good.

369
00:25:56,480 --> 00:25:58,480
That white camellia tree
was always strange.

370
00:25:58,590 --> 00:26:00,790
It bloomed for no reason
and then withered for no reason.

371
00:26:01,310 --> 00:26:02,550
It's ominous.

372
00:26:02,550 --> 00:26:03,440
Yes.

373
00:26:05,030 --> 00:26:06,640
It's not him that's ominous.

374
00:26:07,550 --> 00:26:09,200
Don't you touch him!

375
00:26:10,000 --> 00:26:10,680
Well...

376
00:26:11,680 --> 00:26:14,510
Even if... Even if we don't cut it down,

377
00:26:15,200 --> 00:26:16,790
it won't survive

378
00:26:16,790 --> 00:26:18,790
in this state, will it?

379
00:26:20,110 --> 00:26:20,880
It will.

380
00:26:21,830 --> 00:26:23,480
He will get better.

381
00:26:24,160 --> 00:26:26,350
He will bloom for me again.

382
00:26:27,440 --> 00:26:30,240
He promised he'd always stay with me.

383
00:26:30,720 --> 00:26:32,030
There, there.

384
00:26:32,240 --> 00:26:34,350
It's just a camellia tree.

385
00:26:34,960 --> 00:26:36,110
If you like it so much,

386
00:26:36,400 --> 00:26:39,550
we'll plant more in the Imperial Garden.

387
00:26:39,550 --> 00:26:40,750
Exactly.

388
00:26:42,160 --> 00:26:42,960
It's not the same.

389
00:26:43,880 --> 00:26:45,000
Not the same.

390
00:26:46,000 --> 00:26:48,030
No other tree could ever be him.

391
00:26:49,310 --> 00:26:50,440
Well... What...

392
00:26:50,510 --> 00:26:52,830
What's so different about it?

393
00:26:53,400 --> 00:26:55,590
Yuanzhen, stop crying.

394
00:26:57,160 --> 00:26:59,240
Look what I brought you.

395
00:27:02,200 --> 00:27:03,070
See?

396
00:27:05,640 --> 00:27:06,440
Isn't it fun?

397
00:27:06,440 --> 00:27:07,720
- Fun.
- Not fun.

398
00:27:11,400 --> 00:27:12,200
Fun.

399
00:27:12,550 --> 00:27:13,750
Not fun!

400
00:27:14,640 --> 00:27:16,030
How is it not fun?

401
00:27:18,680 --> 00:27:20,240
She's close to you.

402
00:27:20,400 --> 00:27:21,880
Comfort her.

403
00:27:21,920 --> 00:27:23,000
State affairs are pressing.

404
00:27:23,030 --> 00:27:24,920
You may attend to them.

405
00:27:25,200 --> 00:27:26,480
Leave the rest to me.

406
00:27:27,200 --> 00:27:28,200
We'll leave it to you.

407
00:27:30,720 --> 00:27:32,160
Alright, alright, come on.

408
00:27:36,000 --> 00:27:37,480
Go on, all of you can leave.

409
00:27:37,480 --> 00:27:38,310
Go ahead.

410
00:27:38,310 --> 00:27:40,000
We don't need you anymore. Go on.

411
00:27:42,590 --> 00:27:43,960
Seems you don't need me either.

412
00:27:45,400 --> 00:27:46,240
Aunt,

413
00:27:47,720 --> 00:27:49,640
you understand me, don't you?

414
00:27:50,030 --> 00:27:51,200
Yes, I understand.

415
00:27:53,960 --> 00:27:54,830
Yuanzhen,

416
00:27:54,830 --> 00:27:55,920
I remember

417
00:27:56,550 --> 00:28:00,790
that white camellia tree
was brought back

418
00:28:00,960 --> 00:28:03,000
when you traveled south
with your parents, right?

419
00:28:05,310 --> 00:28:06,920
Can you tell me

420
00:28:07,550 --> 00:28:10,310
what happened during that trip

421
00:28:10,400 --> 00:28:12,310
that made you love that tree so much?

422
00:28:18,960 --> 00:28:19,750
Mother!

423
00:28:22,000 --> 00:28:23,160
Father!

424
00:28:25,790 --> 00:28:27,030
Mother!

425
00:28:28,590 --> 00:28:29,750
Father!

426
00:28:41,680 --> 00:28:43,240
That night in the deep mountain forest,

427
00:28:43,510 --> 00:28:45,000
it scared away the beasts

428
00:28:45,030 --> 00:28:46,510
and kept me safe beneath him.

429
00:28:54,720 --> 00:28:56,110
Your Highness!

430
00:28:56,640 --> 00:28:58,680
Your Highness!

431
00:28:58,960 --> 00:29:00,000
Your Highness!

432
00:29:01,110 --> 00:29:03,640
Your Highness, I've finally found you.

433
00:29:04,480 --> 00:29:05,240
Come on.

434
00:29:05,720 --> 00:29:08,350
His Majesty and Her Majesty
are worried sick.

435
00:29:09,270 --> 00:29:10,200
Your Highness,

436
00:29:10,200 --> 00:29:11,720
are you injured anywhere?

437
00:29:13,350 --> 00:29:14,680
What are you doing here?

438
00:29:14,680 --> 00:29:15,680
Let's get back now.

439
00:29:15,680 --> 00:29:16,680
Come on, let's go.

440
00:29:17,240 --> 00:29:18,640
We can't leave yet.

441
00:29:18,880 --> 00:29:20,110
He saved me.

442
00:29:20,440 --> 00:29:21,920
He seems sick.

443
00:29:21,960 --> 00:29:23,240
We need to save him.

444
00:29:23,240 --> 00:29:24,750
It... It saved you?

445
00:29:26,350 --> 00:29:29,240
But we don't have a gardener
with us right now.

446
00:29:29,240 --> 00:29:30,960
Your Highness, let's go.

447
00:29:32,160 --> 00:29:33,510
Then take him back to the palace!

448
00:29:33,720 --> 00:29:35,680
I'll get him
the best gardener in the world!

449
00:29:36,270 --> 00:29:37,480
Alright. Keep it alive.

450
00:29:37,480 --> 00:29:38,640
We'll keep it alive.

451
00:29:39,070 --> 00:29:40,680
First, let's go back, Your Highness.

452
00:29:47,880 --> 00:29:48,680
Aunt,

453
00:29:49,960 --> 00:29:50,830
I know.

454
00:29:51,830 --> 00:29:53,750
Even the best gardeners in the world

455
00:29:53,750 --> 00:29:55,200
say there's nothing they can do.

456
00:29:56,480 --> 00:29:57,240
This time,

457
00:29:58,920 --> 00:30:00,680
he's really gone.

458
00:30:06,030 --> 00:30:06,960
Look.

459
00:30:08,680 --> 00:30:09,640
See what this is.

460
00:30:17,110 --> 00:30:17,960
This is...?

461
00:30:20,400 --> 00:30:21,160
It's him.

462
00:30:47,830 --> 00:30:49,200
You risked your life

463
00:30:49,680 --> 00:30:51,240
to protect Yuanzhen.

464
00:30:52,960 --> 00:30:55,310
Now your death is near,
and your demonic soul is fading.

465
00:30:56,510 --> 00:30:57,640
Do you regret it?

466
00:31:01,310 --> 00:31:02,640
I have no regrets

467
00:31:03,880 --> 00:31:05,110

I often thought of home

495
00:33:14,880 --> 00:33:17,160
and missed Yuanzhen.

496
00:33:17,640 --> 00:33:18,720
If Her Majesty

497
00:33:18,720 --> 00:33:21,070
could give Yuanzhen a little brother,

501
00:33:32,440 --> 00:33:35,240
I heard Mr. Pei and Mr. Mei

502
00:33:35,240 --> 00:33:36,880
are both staying at the Duke's Mansion.

503
00:33:37,510 --> 00:33:40,590
Father, have you met them?
What do you think?

504
00:33:40,960 --> 00:33:41,790
I've met them.

505
00:33:42,510 --> 00:33:43,240
But...

506
00:33:43,510 --> 00:33:44,110
Well...

507

00:33:49,110 --> 00:33:49,920
But

509
00:33:50,000 --> 00:33:53,160
after much thought

510
00:33:53,160 --> 00:33:54,640
and careful consideration,

511
00:33:55,160 --> 00:33:55,960
I think

512
00:33:57,440 --> 00:33:59,310
Mr. Pei is better.

513
00:34:00,160 --> 00:34:02,030
Most importantly,
he won't take concubines.

514
00:34:02,790 --> 00:34:06,640
So Mr. Mei wants to take concubines?

515
00:34:10,400 --> 00:34:11,440
Not exactly.

516
00:34:12,000 --> 00:34:14,150
He just doesn't want to get married.

517
00:34:14,230 --> 00:34:15,030
Why?

518
00:34:17,150 --> 00:34:18,360
He has no parents

519
00:34:18,630 --> 00:34:19,670
and little wealth.

520
00:34:20,030 --> 00:34:22,590

[Duke of Wu's Mansion]

558
00:36:01,510 --> 00:36:04,440
Gentlemen, apologies for the wait.

559
00:36:05,190 --> 00:36:06,000
Uncle.

560
00:36:06,670 --> 00:36:07,440
Come on!

561
00:36:08,590 --> 00:36:09,800
Pour the drinks.

562
00:36:14,190 --> 00:36:15,150
Sir, please forgive me.

563
00:36:15,510 --> 00:36:16,360
I never drink.

564
00:36:16,360 --> 00:36:18,710
Well, I know.

565
00:36:19,110 --> 00:36:21,670
I know you can't hold your liquor.

566
00:36:21,760 --> 00:36:22,630
But this isn't wine.

567
00:36:22,880 --> 00:36:24,630
It's called Apricot Yellow.

568
00:36:24,630 --> 00:36:26,320
Just a fruit drink.

569
00:36:26,840 --> 00:36:27,510
Try it.

570
00:36:27,550 --> 00:36:29,000
Go on, try it.

571
00:36:31,840 --> 00:36:32,670
Jiya,

572
00:36:32,670 --> 00:36:34,760
you can't say you don't drink.

573
00:36:35,880 --> 00:36:38,590
Zhen is quite the drinker.

574
00:36:39,360 --> 00:36:40,070
Come on.

575
00:36:41,480 --> 00:36:42,110
Bottoms up.

576
00:36:42,920 --> 00:36:44,800
Mr. Wu, my master can't hold his liquor.

577
00:36:44,840 --> 00:36:45,880
None of your concern!

578
00:36:55,280 --> 00:36:55,840
Come on.

579
00:36:57,320 --> 00:36:58,440
Have a taste.

580
00:36:58,510 --> 00:37:00,230
Do me this favor.

581
00:37:06,550 --> 00:37:07,360
How is it?

582
00:37:08,000 --> 00:37:10,150
Isn't it bursting with aroma,
silky smooth on the palate,

583
00:37:10,150 --> 00:37:11,030
and leaving a lingering finish?

584
00:37:11,550 --> 00:37:13,960
Even nectar would pale in comparison.

585
00:37:14,190 --> 00:37:15,000
What do you think?

586
00:37:20,440 --> 00:37:21,190
How is it?

587
00:37:23,280 --> 00:37:24,630
The wine is clear and strong,

588
00:37:24,760 --> 00:37:26,230
with the sweet and sour flavor of fruit.

589
00:37:26,440 --> 00:37:27,880
Truly exceptional.

590
00:37:28,510 --> 00:37:31,320
Jiya, since you
hold your liquor so well,

591
00:37:31,480 --> 00:37:33,670
let's have enough today.

592
00:37:33,960 --> 00:37:34,630
There's

593
00:37:35,030 --> 00:37:35,880
plenty of wine!

594
00:38:00,280 --> 00:38:01,070
Uncle,

595
00:38:01,840 --> 00:38:03,030
about Zhen...

596
00:38:03,230 --> 00:38:04,440
She can really hold her liquor.

597
00:38:05,320 --> 00:38:07,440
Drink up. Apricot Yellow.

598
00:38:09,710 --> 00:38:10,760
What are they doing?

599
00:38:11,400 --> 00:38:12,510
Mr. Wu said

600
00:38:12,710 --> 00:38:15,320
he intends to drink with Mr. Mei
and Mr. Pei until they drop.

601
00:38:15,480 --> 00:38:16,840
He told me to inform you

602
00:38:16,880 --> 00:38:18,030
if you came back.

603
00:38:18,670 --> 00:38:20,960
They're all drunk. You decide

604
00:38:21,400 --> 00:38:23,030
whom to look after.

605
00:38:24,760 --> 00:38:26,440
Father is testing me.

606
00:38:28,030 --> 00:38:30,150
This move required some thought.

607
00:38:30,480 --> 00:38:32,000
He didn't come up
with it himself, did he?

608
00:38:35,510 --> 00:38:36,630
I'm so dizzy!

609
00:38:37,630 --> 00:38:39,840
I'm drunk!

610
00:38:41,000 --> 00:38:42,230
So it was my sister's idea then.

611
00:38:43,760 --> 00:38:45,510
I'm so dizzy!

612
00:38:46,190 --> 00:38:46,760
Sir.

613
00:38:47,280 --> 00:38:49,590
I'm drunk.

614
00:38:51,000 --> 00:38:53,030
Zhen, you're back.

615
00:38:54,710 --> 00:38:57,230
Those two young gentlemen
have had quite a bit to drink.

616
00:38:58,800 --> 00:39:00,320
Take care of them.

617
00:39:02,920 --> 00:39:03,590
You,

618
00:39:04,510 --> 00:39:05,760
you, and you.

619
00:39:05,960 --> 00:39:06,920
Come with me.

620
00:39:08,030 --> 00:39:08,590
Easy now.

621
00:39:08,590 --> 00:39:09,590
So dizzy.

622
00:39:10,960 --> 00:39:11,960
So dizzy.

623
00:39:12,150 --> 00:39:13,840
Jiya, I'll take you to your room.

624
00:39:24,150 --> 00:39:26,070
Mr. Mei, let me take you to your room.

625
00:39:26,070 --> 00:39:27,070
Ms. Mingzhuang,

626
00:39:27,670 --> 00:39:28,590
don't worry about me.

627
00:39:29,030 --> 00:39:29,960
You may attend to your duties.

628
00:39:47,400 --> 00:39:48,960
What did I say?

629
00:39:49,630 --> 00:39:52,440
It seems Zhen cares more

630
00:39:52,880 --> 00:39:54,670
about Jiya after all.

631
00:40:05,030 --> 00:40:05,840
Zhen,

632
00:40:10,590 --> 00:40:11,510
do you know

633
00:40:12,440 --> 00:40:13,480
my feelings?

634
00:40:16,000 --> 00:40:18,590
Of course I do.

635
00:40:20,590 --> 00:40:21,710
Get some rest.

636
00:40:21,840 --> 00:40:23,150
We'll go out tomorrow.

637
00:41:16,000 --> 00:41:18,070
Mr. Mei, I thought you didn't drink?

638
00:41:18,630 --> 00:41:20,360
You seem to hold your liquor well.

639
00:41:21,800 --> 00:41:24,480
But drinking like this is such a waste.

640
00:41:25,550 --> 00:41:27,480
Apricot Yellow should be savored slowly

641
00:41:28,070 --> 00:41:30,110
to appreciate its flavor.

642
00:41:30,840 --> 00:41:32,550
And this wine has a strong aftereffect.

643
00:41:33,000 --> 00:41:34,030
You might have

644
00:41:35,150 --> 00:41:36,630
overdone it drinking like that.

645
00:41:36,920 --> 00:41:38,630
Weren't you seeing Pei Jiya off?

646
00:41:39,190 --> 00:41:40,590
