♫ I spur my horse, a whip in hand,
to claim the land ♫

♫ Little did I know, my boldness couldn’t
overcome the sorrow of parting ♫

♫ I shed my armor and wear the brocade ♫

♫ The man in the yellow light sighs alone ♫

♫ But no grand ambition
can fill this lonely night ♫

♫ With all my courage,
I'd hold a paper umbrella high ♫

♫ To shield you from every storm in the sky ♫

♫ On the lakeside of the mortal world ♫

♫ I look back, a thousand ships have sailed by ♫

♫ We drank to our joys and griefs
in the endless sand ♫

♫ But let slip the perfect life we had planned ♫

♫ I owe you a lifetime I cannot repay ♫

♫ Only in the next life can this debt be paid ♫

♫ We drank to our joys and griefs
in the desert vast ♫

♫ But in love and hate,
we stumbled till the last ♫

♫ Though I might walk through
history's proud song ♫

Braveness of the Ming

Episode 14

Ji.

Looking for me?

Xia, come and sit.

I have something important to discuss with you.

What is it? Tell me.

If I say it,

are you willing to help me?

Just say what it is.

As long as it's something I can do,

I'll go through fire and water
without hesitation.

Really?

Good brother! Of course,

you don't have to go through fire and water,

but for me,

it's a very important matter.

It's my lifelong affair.

You're not...

thinking of getting married, are you?

That's right.

I've met a woman I fancy.

I like her very much.

I sincerely want to marry her
and take care of her for the rest of my life.

But I don't know how to
broach the subject with her.

So,

Xia, are you willing to help me?

This favor...

Of course I'm willing to help.

Hurry up and tell me,

which family's daughter is she?

As long as it's not the one Ximen likes,

it's fine.

No, no, no!

Absolutely not her!

It's...

It's Miss Xie.

What's wrong?

Anything inappropriate?

Could it be that you also have feelings
for Miss Xie?

Don't overthink it.

One of us is a big swindler,
the other a small swindler.

If the we were together,

we'd only end up quarreling.

That's good. You scared me to death.

I was worried earlier.

What were you worried about?

As a real man, if you love, you should speak.

You can leave it to me.

Miss Xie, the weather is so nice today.

Would you like to go for a walk somewhere?

Miss Xie, do you like opera?

I know an opera troupe.

They sing exceptionally well.
Would you like to go?

Um, Miss Xie, I didn't hurt you, did I?

No, but why are you standing there?

No, it's not intentional.

I came looking for you.

Right, Miss Xie.

Look, the opera troupe outside is so good.

Miss Xie, where are you going?

Where I go is none of your business.

You want to follow me?

I was just asking.

I happen to be going out too.

We might go the same way.

We're not going the same way.

How do you know?

You don't even know where I'm going.

I don't know where you're going,

but I do know

that we're definitely not going the same way.

Because I'm going to

the rouge shop.

So, are we going the same way?

We are.

You're going to buy rouge and cosmetics too?

I'm going to buy rouge and cosmetics.

You...

You, a man,

buying rouge and cosmetics?

Oh...

I'm... I'm buying them for Xia.

Xia asked me

to buy some rouge and cosmetics for him.

Um...

I want to ask you something.

If you tell me,

then your bumping into me earlier

will be settled.

Please ask, Miss Xie.

I'll tell you everything I know.

Well...

Did Xia Xun tell you

why he wants to buy rouge and cosmetics?

Is it... to give to someone?

That... I don't know.

Could it be

that he wants to use the rouge and cosmetics
himself?

That... I know even less.

Pastries! Pastries!

Come take a look!

Miss.

Two white rice cakes.

- Alright.
-Thank you.

- Here.
- Thanks.

Here you are.

Thank you.

I never expected Miss Xie

to also like eating these snacks.

I'm not some noble lady.

Can't I eat these cheap little snacks?

Oh, I remember now.

The steamed buns over there are delicious.

I'll go get some.

Xia!

Why do I keep feeling uneasy today?

Are you trying to murder your own brother?

What's wrong?

What's wrong with me?

So today is

Ji and Miss Xie's first outing.

I wonder how it's going.

Did he bring enough money?

I'd better go check.

Take care.

Young lady,

our Duke finds you very familiar
and would like to invite you for a chat.

My lord.

This way, please.

Thank you.

Look, I almost forgot.

This young lady,

I am a first-rank official of the court,
a hereditary Duke.

With my family background,
I should be worthy of you, right?

Today, I've taken a liking to you.

I will take you as a secondary wife.

That would not disgrace you.
[Duke of Cao, Li Jinglong]

I trust the young lady won't refuse?

But I already have a fiancé.

As the saying goes,

a virtuous woman does not marry two husbands.

Your kind intentions

are something I truly dare not accept.

The hairstyle you wear
clearly indicates you are unmarried.

Could it be that you're cleverly
evading me with words?

Lord, my younger sister has urgent matters.
We must take our leave.

Alright.

Your elder brother is here today as well.

Then I will, in front of your elder brother,

present you with a betrothal letter.

Preposterous!

In broad daylight, under the clear sky,

you still dare to forcibly seize a woman?

How dare you!

You dare to defy me, the Duke?

Seize them!

What are you doing?

Let him go!

Stop!

What's wrong?

Who are you?

Imperial Guards Commander, Xia Xun.

Respects to the Duke.

I have long heard of your great name,

but never had the chance
to visit your residence.

I didn't expect such a coincidence today
that we meet here.

These two are my good friends.

I don't know how they have offended you.

I apologize on their behalf.

Enough.

Considering Commander Xia's words...

Then thank you, Duke.

We shall take our leave now.

Wait, wait!

This matter ends here?

Your friend was being unreasonable.

I'll let it go for now.

But this young lady,

I fell in love with her at first sight

and intended to make her my concubine.

What, Xia?

Don't tell me you want to steal my love?

A lifelong commitment

is not something to be joked about.

Besides, I am already betrothed.

I've said it before.

Then forgive my boldness,
but may I see the betrothal letter?

If you're indeed promised to someone,

I will say no more and turn to leave.

If you're not yet betrothed, then...

Today is the first time
you and Miss Xie have met.

It's perfectly normal for Miss Xie to find it hard to accept.

What's the big deal?

Come to my residence for some tea,
get acquainted,

and naturally she'll accept.

But matters of the heart

cannot be forced, it seems.

Ridiculous!

Do I need to consider her feelings
when taking her as concubine?

Xia,

you really should advise your friend.

Out of respect for you,

I won't treat her poorly.

Besides,

we still have to work together going forward.

To be honest with you,

this Miss Xie

is none other than my, your humble servant's,
betrothed wife.

Xia?

What?

She's your betrothed wife?

The betrothal letter!
Show me the betrothal letter!

They're holding hands!

Miss Xie and I are mutually devoted.

Although we have discussed marriage,

the formal betrothal letter
has not yet been drawn up.

Then you are just making excuses for me.

I wouldn't dare.

If you don't believe me,

you can ask Miss Xie.

What nonsense is 'mutual devotion'?

For a woman to marry,

it must be by parental order
and matchmaker's words.

There must be the three matchmakers
and six rites.

That's nothing difficult.

As long as there's love,

why do we need any matchmaker?

Heaven and earth can bear witness.

Today, I, Xia Xun,
take heaven as the matchmaker.

Then I hereby ask earth to be the matchmaker.

Good!

The three matchmakers are still missing one.
Where is the middle?

Ji.

Wait, I'll explain to you later. Trust me.

I'll be the matchmaker.

My lord, please take a look.

All three matchmakers are present.

Very good.

Xia Xun,

you're doing great.

We'll see about this.

Return to the manor.

Take care, Duke.

Xia Xun, you just now...

I met a woman I fancy.

I like her very much.

It's...

It's Miss Xie.

I only did that to help you,

Don't take it to heart.

Xia Xun, you scoundrel! I hate you!

- Right?
- Yes.

Xia said it himself.

He said he and Miss Xie
had a marriage arrangement.

Then why did he lie to me?

I asked him, and he denied it.

What does he take me for?

What does he take this brotherhood for?

Don't you think he's wronged me?

We're brothers. He knew I had no chance,

so he shouldn't have given me hope
in the first place.

Why did he do this?

On one hand,

he taught me how to please Miss Xie.

On the other hand,

he asked me to be his matchmaker,

to witness his marriage to Miss Xie.

My heart...

The woman I love most,

and my brother,

they both hurt me.

But,

he taught you how to please Madam Xie?

He must be out of his mind.

So you also think it's very strange, right?

Well...

You also think Xia did it on purpose, right?

No.

Xia and Miss Xie

did have a marriage arrangement.

But that was in the past.

In the past? When?

This... I can't explain it clearly.

Let him explain it to you himself.

He's here.

Ji.

Listen to me.

You don't need to say.

Congratulations, Xia, on winning the beauty.

May you have a child early.

I, Ji Gang,

will not stay here to embarrass myself.

If you still consider me a brother,

sit down and have a drink.

Take your time chatting.

I'll take my leave now.

I, Ji Gang, am not a petty person either.

Xia, if you and Miss Xie are truly in love,

you could have just told me earlier.

So I could let go of my hopes.

We could still be brothers.

But you—

you flatly denied it to my face,

only to turn around and do this in public.

I really can't understand it at all.

This matter is indeed my fault.

I didn't explain the whole truth to you
clearly before,

and you misunderstood.

I'm sorry, brother.

Miss Xie and I

were indeed engaged as children,

but before,

neither of us had any idea about it.

Moreover, we called off the marriage last month.

Now there is not the slightest connection
between us.

Really?

Really.

If I hadn't put on that act just now,

wouldn't you have been taken away
by that Li Jinglong?

He is a first-rank hereditary duke.

If I hadn't confronted him
with moral principles,

how could he have let you off so easily?

I was foolish.

Xia, I'll punish myself with three drinks.

Mine.

Not angry with me anymore?

Then, Xia,

what exactly do you mean now?

After all, you and Miss Xie

were once engaged.

Are you really

not connected by any feelings at all?

If there were still feelings,

how could we possibly have called it off?

That makes sense.

To be honest,

when Miss Xie found out

that the person she was engaged to was me,

she called off the marriage right away.

She made it so clear,

how could I not understand?

She simply doesn't think much of me.

Xia,

I wish you find the woman of your heart soon.

I'll take your kind words.

This drink should be my toast to you,

after all, you had my best interests at heart.

But I misunderstood you.

I'll drink up.

Wait. Next,

I will continue to assist you

in winning Xie's heart.

Come.

This time, in the case of
suppressing the Lingxiao Gang,

you did an excellent job.

Although the Emperor didn't say it outright,

he was very pleased in his heart.

However,

he still seems not to pay much attention
to Imperial Guards.

So,

I'm going to assign you a new task.

What is it, my lord?

In a moment, go to the Grand Marshal Prefecture

and meet Lord Tie Xuan.

Have you heard of Lord Tie?

I have not heard of him.

I forgot.

Although you are a scholar,

it's not surprising you haven't heard of him.

Tie Xuan was already quite famous

during his studies.

He is upright, diligent, and hardworking,

a rare talent.

May I ask, my lord,

why you ordered me to see Judge Tie?

The court has received news

that in the Haining area,

pirates are rampant,
committing all kinds of evil.

Moreover, there are officials
colluding with the pirates.

The Emperor has just decided

to dispatch Li Jinglong, the Duke of Cao,

to Hangzhou Prefecture to investigate.

The Emperor thinks you did well
in the Lingxiao Gang case,

so he has personally appointed you and Lord Tie

to assist the Duke of Cao together.

Assist the Duke of Cao?

What's wrong?

Nothing.

I...

has just returned to the capital.

Strike while the iron is hot.

Let the Emperor remember you thoroughly
and value you.

This is a great opportunity for you.

You must work hard.

Yes, I'll do as you say.

Are you Lord Tie Xuan?

That is indeed me.

I've long heard of your name.

The Duke of Cao has arrived.

Tie Xuan, Judge of Grand Marshal Prefecture,

pays his respects to the Left Grand Marshal.

Xia Xun, Commander of the Imperial Guards,

pays his respects to the Left Grand Marshal.

I, the Marshal, am under imperial orders

to go to Hangzhou Bay
to investigate the sea bandits.

I will still need to rely on the strength
of you two.

I dare not.

Xia Xun respectfully awaits
the Grand Marshal's orders.

Good.

Lord Tie,

you have always acted impartially
and enforced the law strictly.

This time, the Emperor is sending you
to Hangzhou Bay

mainly to investigate the collusion
between the garrison troops and bandits.

Are you willing to accompany me on this journey?

I'll obey your order.

Oh no.

Judging by the tone,

he's going to make things difficult for me.

I have already heard about it.

The Lingxiao Gang bandit Niu Bu'ye

and his entire group of followers

were brought to justice entirely
thanks to Commander Xia.

Regarding the situation in Hangzhou Bay,

I currently have no leads.

So, I must rely on Commander Xia's abilities.

I am undeserving of your excessive praise.

I feel ashamed to accept it.

Xia Xun, receive your orders.

Yes, my lord.

I will lead five thousand capital troops

together with Judge Tie,

set out for Hangzhou Bay five days from now.

My lord,

what about

me?

The local pirates have formed cliques
for private gain.

If we do not ascertain
the extent of their influence,

we will yield half the result
with double the effort.

So, I actually have a good idea.

Commander Xia,

when it comes to gathering intelligence,

both I and Lord Tie

are no match for you.

Then, I will take my subordinates

and go ahead to investigate.

No.

The local pirates are very cunning.

They have also planted many informants

among the coastal populace.

If a large group

of unfamiliar faces suddenly appears,

and they are all attending to you,

it would inevitably arouse suspicion.

Your lordship means

for me to go alone.

Clever.

Set off tomorrow morning,
traveling incognito for a secret investigation.

But if I go alone,

I'm afraid it will be very difficult
to complete the task.

They are merely pirates.

It's not like you have to arrest them yourself.

It's just a secret investigation.
What's so difficult about that?

Or do you feel you cannot accomplish it?

What do you think, Lord Tie?

Duke, you are very cautious in military matters.

Xia and I will definitely do our utmost

to serve you with all our loyalty.

I shall do as you command.

Princess.

Princess, wait.

Princess, don't run so fast.

Princess.

Ming'er.

What's wrong, Brother?

This is most improper.

Brother, I heard
Xia Xun has returned from Jinan.

But, he's going out again.

Where is he going this time?

By imperial decree, he is going to Haining.

Haining?

The pirates there are running rampant.

It must be because

he performed meritorious service
in the Lingxiao Gang case,

the Emperor sent him to suppress the bandits.

He is truly remarkable.

Indeed, he is young and promising.

But

once he leaves, it will be a long time
before I see him again.

What are you looking at?

Is there something

on my face today?

If only Xia Xun could be like you,

playing with me every day,

that would be wonderful.

You silly girl,

how can Xia Xun compare to me?

That's true.

Xia Xun is much more fun than Brother.

You... you, stand right there!

Princess!

You...

This is official.

I might even have to infiltrate the pirates.

A rough man like me can handle it,
but how can you?

Besides, I've offended him.

Li Jinglong will definitely seek revenge on me.

Otherwise,

why would he deliberately emphasize
that I go alone?

If you go,

it will only give them a handle against me.

Well,

whoever has the higher rank, we listen to.

Xia, this time the pirates are coming
with great force.

Plus, Li Jinglong is unreasonable.

You must be extremely careful.

If anything happens,

send a carrier pigeon message immediately.

I will come right away.

I certainly will.

By the way, you must take good care of Xie.

I'm off.

Bye.

If you don't make a move soon,

even the best strategy
will turn into a dead end.

Lord Bai.

You summoning me so late at night

probably isn't just for a game of chess, is it?

It is said

that this Xia Xun was sent ahead by you to Hangzhou

to investigate the sea bandits.

This is not good.

He is currently a favorite of the Emperor's.

If this matter isn't handled well,
it will be on you.

If it is handled well,

everyone will only say Xia Xun is capable.

Lord Li,

you wouldn't just willingly let him succeed,
would you?

Do you think I haven't made plans?

He went alone.

I reckon he cannot find anything.

When the time comes,

I can arbitrarily

charge him with some crime.

Let's see how he can still be arrogant then.

Xia Xun is an extremely clever person.

It's better to be safe than sorry.

So, what are your intentions?

Ji,

why are you always staring at me?

Ximen, Ximen!

Don't come over!

Are you coveting my beauty
and planning to take advantage of me?

No!

How could I covet your beauty?

Alright.

I know, I know everything.

The beauty you covet is someone else.

Yes, yes...

No!

I don't have feelings for Miss Xie...

You finally admit it!

Actually, the person in your heart

is Madam Xie.

I say, Ji,

if you like Madam Xie,

why are you following me?

Could it be that you

want me to go before Madam Xie

and put in a good word for you?

This, this... that would naturally
be even better.

But, come... but I...

I have another matter to ask of you.

Speak.

I originally thought that

this matter of marriage

should follow the parents' orders
and the matchmaker's words.

But after I met Miss Xie,

I feel that matters of affection
are like a hundred claws scratching.

I have no experience at all.

And I don't know who to discuss it with.

After much thought, among the people around me,

only you, Ximen, can I turn to for advice.

Ji,

you really have good judgment.

You've come to the right person for this matter.

I'm not boasting,

but if back when
I was taking the imperial exams,

the topic had been
"Fair maiden, a gentleman's good match",

I guarantee
I would have won three top scholar titles.

Then please, Ximen, bestow your guidance.

Alright, alright, I'll teach you the first move.

Four words:

Cater to Her Interests.

Cater to her interests?

It means accompanying her
in doing things like embroidery,

and acting even more enthusiastic than she is.

Then she will develop
a favorable impression of you.

But I'm a man.

You want me to learn embroidery?

Women dress up for those who appreciate them.

When you are a man,
yet can be enthusiastic about embroidery.

What does that show?

It shows you are

"Quiet as a maiden, swift as a hare;
both rough and delicate",

a meticulous and considerate, peerless good man.

What woman wouldn't like a man like you?

As long as Madam Xie is still a woman,

she will definitely fall for you.

Alright!

For Miss Xie,

I will definitely accompany her well.

Why did Ji bring me to an embroidery shop?

So boring.

The wind rustles, the grass and trees grieve.

Autumn colors pour out heartfelt feelings.

Is it pretty? I can't embroider it well.

Just like this.

What?

You had Ji Gang take Xie
to an embroidery shop for a date?

Wouldn't that bore Xie to death?

You're deliberately causing trouble.

Why? Did Ji Gang offend you?

You've misunderstood.

I didn't mean to cause trouble on purpose.

I did this for Ji Gang's own good.

What are you doing? Let go! You let go!

You hit really hard.

Xie.

I don't want to be here anymore. Let's go.

You don't like it here?

Then how about a calligraphy and painting shop?

Or we could go boating on Xuanwu Lake.

Then I'd rather stay here.

Why isn't Ximen's method working?

I'm absolutely certain

that Miss Xie definitely likes Xia Xun.

How is that possible?

Miss Xie personally broke off the engagement.

She definitely doesn't like him.

Shame on you for being a girl.

You don't even understand a girl's heart.

This is called saying one thing
and meaning another.

Miss Xie deliberately rejected Xia Xun

to hide her shyness.

I just don't understand.

If she likes him, why refuse?

I think Ji Gang

fell in love with Miss Xie at first sight,

and Xia Xun also intends to bring them together.

Miss Xie's true destined one

is definitely Ji Gang.

Impossible.

How is it impossible?

It's just impossible.

How is it impossible?

A hundred thousand impossibilities.

- Possible!
- Definitely not!

- Impossible!
- Possible!

Do you want to bet?

Bet it is. What's the wager?

If Xie Yufei likes Ji Gang,

then I'll listen to whatever you say.

I'll obey you in everything.

If she likes Xia Xun,

then you'll have to...

Ximen Jing!

Stop!

- Ximen Jing!
- Stop!
- What are you thinking?

What are you thinking?

I... I just wanted you
to change into women's clothing.

I originally thought such an unsettled place

must be poor and dilapidated.

I never expected it to be as bustling here

as Jinling.

Lord Tie,

we've offered incense at Lingyin Temple,

and we've boated on West Lake,

but where is Xia Xun?

Could it be he hasn't found out any news at all,

is worried about being reprimanded by me,

and simply ran away?

Your Grace is overthinking.

Xia Xun went to Hangzhou alone.

Even if he found out nothing,
that would be a common occurrence.

If he truly found out nothing,

then he should have come to confess his failure
long ago.

He's been gone for so long without a trace,

I think he... must have found some news.

Would you two gentlemen like some fresh fish?

Sirs.

Go away.

Lord Xia?

You are Xia Xun. Why are you dressed like this?

Didn't you order me to travel incognito?

It makes it easier to investigate.

What about the information

I asked you to look into?

I have investigated.

In the Haining area, almost every household

is involved in smuggling.

It's not hard to eliminate one,

but to eliminate them all

would be making an enemy of all Haining.

I know that.

That's why I called you to find a solution.

There might be a way.

There's a pirate on Shuangyu Island named Xu Hu.

Although he is a major pirate,

he has a code of honor.

Perhaps if we seek him out,

we can find a solution.

How?

Recruit these pirates.

Use pirates to fight pirates?

The East Sea pirates
are not just this one group.

The court can't recruit them all.

I have a better idea.

If the court would show mercy

and specially permit overseas trade,

then everyone could do business peacefully

and make a fortune quietly.

They probably wouldn't need to
engage in such activities.

Nonsense!

Banning private overseas trade

is a policy
decreed by the Emperor himself.

Who dares change it?

Duke, you could petition the Emperor.

Perhaps His Majesty will change his mind.

A foolish view! Must I rely on
the help of these sea bandits?

Compromise with them?

If word gets out, wouldn't it be a joke?

If I dared to say these words to the Emperor,

he would have my head cut off

and kick it like a ball!

Then, Duke,

what do you plan to do?

Strengthen defenses and clear the fields.

Seek the enemy for a decisive battle,
and destroy their lair.

Yes! That's it!

I think it's the color.

You embroidered it right.

Yes, look, is it like this?

Add a little more of this.

Add a little more pink thread and it'll be fine.

Miss, your craftsmanship is excellent.

How about after you finish,

you sell it to me? I'll help you sell it.

We can split the profit seventy-thirty.

That way we both make a profit.

Okay?

Alright then, I'll take six, you take four.

Fine, fine, let's split it fifty-fifty.

Good, it's settled then.

As long as there's profit, it's fine.

So pretty! Let me see.

What's wrong?

Why so gloomy?

Did Miss Xie beat you up?

Not exactly.

I did as you suggested.

But she doesn't seem to like it.

She always seems unhappy.

Did I do something wrong?

Well...

The master leads you to the door, but the practice is up to you.

Ji,

every woman's mind is different.

You have to adapt to the situation.

Adapt to the situation...

Ximen, what should I do then?

For someone like Madam Xie,

such an extraordinary woman,

you need to use extraordinary methods

to get her attention.

I'm all ears.

I'll give you four more words.

Four more words again?

Play hard to get.

You have no idea
how ridiculous he was back then.

Really?

Yeah, it was hilarious.

That sounds interesting.

When will the bright moon appear?
I raise my wine cup to ask the blue sky.

Ji!

When will the bright moon appear?
I raise my wine cup to ask the blue sky.

Let's go.

When will the bright moon appear?
I raise my wine cup to ask the blue sky.

Delicious! Really good.

Ji, time to eat.

No need.

I'm not hungry.

What's going on? What's wrong with him?

Be gentle, be gentle! I'm your own man.

If you don't take care of me, who will?

Gently.

I'm asking you, what did you say to Ji Gang?

Why has he been

acting so strangely lately?

He's strange?

I think he's perfectly fine.

Don't play dumb with me.

Before, when Ji Gang saw Xie,

he couldn't take his eyes off her.

Why is it that now when he sees Xie,

he either turns and walks away

or pretends not to see her?

You must be up to something.

Speak!

Murdering husband! Murdering husband! Murd...

If you keep talking nonsense,

I'll pull your tongue out.

Alright, alright, I'll talk.

Put it down.

I just taught him a trick called
"playing hard to get."

See, it's already showing initial results,
isn't it?

Even Miss Xie thinks he's acting strange,

so she'll pay more attention to him

and gradually fall in love with him.

Stop your

wild and nonsensical talk here.

Don't you know you're actually
making things worse for Ji Gang?

Why don't you try "playing hard to get"?

I can't bear it.

Even if it's to ultimately win you over,

even if it's for a brief separation,

I can't stand

being apart from you for even a moment.

Ximen Jing, are you asking for a beating?

- Help!
- I'll beat you up!

Stop!

It really hurts!

Stop, stop!

Enough, enough!

Really enough now. Stop hitting!

Stop hitting!

Stop hitting!

Ximen,

Ximen, what are you doing?

It's all for your sake

that I got beaten up by Miss Peng.

Getting beaten like this every day,
a person would go stupid.

So you're not making progress either, huh?

Good.

This is all forced upon you.

Since that's the case,
I no longer need to hide my capabilities.

I must show my true strength.

Starting today, watch closely.

Whatever I do, you do.

Follow my lead, I guarantee you...

Right,

four words:

Success at your fingertips.

Miss Ziqi.

Ximen,

Ximen,

why is it like this?

Women hate men who flirt around the most.

So when giving flowers,

you must pick the flowers off.

It's that simple.

♫ Evening lanterns glow, frost upon the moon ♫

♫ Candlelight flickers red
where only few stars gleam ♫

♫ In her tower she sings, dreaming of home ♫

♫ Through wind and night rain,
her gaze begins to roam ♫

♫ Sorrow under moonlight,
endless are the nights ♫

♫ Dreaming of moments lost from sight ♫

♫ A rising sandstorm veils your face from view ♫

♫ Now worlds apart, with no path back to you ♫

♫ Love and hate, awake then gone like sand ♫

♫ We meet, forget,
through lifetimes' shifting strand ♫

♫ Right or wrong, the song ends,
but feelings stay ♫

♫ Two worlds apart, too far to see the way ♫

♫ Who knows her silent love,
who knows her tears? ♫

♫ Who knows her heart,
and whom it truly fears? ♫

♫ Who knows her tender thoughts,
her hidden grief? ♫

♫ A beauty's fleeting dream
for whom does life seem brief? ♫

♫ I'd give my all, through all the joy and pain,
and never complain ♫
