1
00:00:22,440 --> 00:00:28,020
♫ I spur my horse, a whip in hand, to claim the land ♫
2
00:00:30,460 --> 00:00:36,040
♫ Little did I know, my boldness couldn’t
overcome the sorrow of parting ♫
3
00:00:38,320 --> 00:00:41,980
♫ I shed my armor and wear the brocade ♫
4
00:00:42,520 --> 00:00:46,020
♫ The man in the yellow light sighs alone ♫
5
00:00:46,330 --> 00:00:53,400
♫ But no grand ambition can fill this lonely night ♫
6
00:00:53,470 --> 00:00:57,730
♫ With all my courage, I'd hold a paper umbrella high ♫
7
00:00:57,860 --> 00:01:01,520
♫ To shield you from every storm in the sky ♫
8
00:01:01,880 --> 00:01:03,800
♫ On the lakeside of the mortal world ♫
9
00:01:03,800 --> 00:01:11,020
♫ I look back, a thousand ships have sailed by ♫
10
00:01:11,200 --> 00:01:15,330
♫ We drank to our joys and griefs in the endless sand ♫
11
00:01:15,330 --> 00:01:18,670
♫ But let slip the perfect life we had planned ♫
12
00:01:19,300 --> 00:01:23,370
♫ I owe you a lifetime I cannot repay ♫
13
00:01:23,770 --> 00:01:26,730
♫ Only in the next life can this debt be paid ♫
14
00:01:27,270 --> 00:01:31,300
♫ We drank to our joys and griefs in the desert vast ♫
15
00:01:31,330 --> 00:01:34,530
♫ But in love and hate, we stumbled till the last ♫
16
00:01:35,530 --> 00:01:39,130
♫ Though I might walk through history's proud song ♫
17
00:01:39,130 --> 00:01:42,400
♫ My heart still falters where love belongs ♫
18
00:01:43,470 --> 00:01:47,200
♫ I’d have no regrets at all,
if only you had asked me to stay ♫
19
00:01:47,200 --> 00:01:53,500
Braveness of the Ming
20
00:01:53,500 --> 00:01:55,500
Episode 51
21
00:01:58,960 --> 00:02:00,160
Has the joint trial not concluded yet?
22
00:02:00,800 --> 00:02:01,880
Zuo Dan hasn't come to report.
23
00:02:02,440 --> 00:02:03,680
I don't know how it went.
24
00:02:04,040 --> 00:02:06,240
Are Tang Sai'er and Xia Xun alright?
25
00:02:06,600 --> 00:02:07,440
And there's Ziqi...
26
00:02:08,600 --> 00:02:10,520
I wonder how she is now, if she's injured.
27
00:02:10,800 --> 00:02:12,200
I can't even protect the woman I love.
28
00:02:12,240 --> 00:02:13,360
Come on, Ximen Jing.
29
00:02:13,360 --> 00:02:14,880
no matter how much you claim to love her,
30
00:02:14,880 --> 00:02:16,320
now you can't help at all.
31
00:02:17,760 --> 00:02:18,520
They'll be fine.
32
00:02:19,680 --> 00:02:21,160
I believe they will definitely be fine.
33
00:02:23,640 --> 00:02:25,720
Madam, the meal is ready.
34
00:02:29,440 --> 00:02:31,000
What's wrong? Are you alright?
35
00:02:32,040 --> 00:02:32,640
I'm fine.
36
00:02:34,640 --> 00:02:35,560
Let's eat first.
37
00:02:35,960 --> 00:02:37,520
We need to eat our fill to keep fighting.
38
00:02:39,040 --> 00:02:39,800
I can't eat.
39
00:02:42,080 --> 00:02:42,600
Xie.
40
00:02:43,160 --> 00:02:46,000
You must be tired. You need to rest properly.
41
00:02:46,640 --> 00:02:47,920
With Xia Xun in this state,
42
00:02:48,240 --> 00:02:50,800
how can I possibly rest easy?
43
00:02:53,240 --> 00:02:53,800
Madam.
44
00:02:53,880 --> 00:02:55,080
Madam, sir.
45
00:02:55,640 --> 00:02:57,040
How is it? What's the situation?
46
00:02:57,280 --> 00:02:57,960
Just as expected.
47
00:02:58,200 --> 00:03:00,360
Lord Peng fell into Chen Yunan's hands
and is imprisoned in the Imperial Prison.
48
00:03:00,640 --> 00:03:02,080
Judging by her appearance in court today,
49
00:03:02,320 --> 00:03:03,800
she hasn't suffered physical torture.
50
00:03:04,000 --> 00:03:04,920
You can rest assured.
51
00:03:05,000 --> 00:03:05,560
I believe
52
00:03:05,840 --> 00:03:06,880
after the next hearing,
53
00:03:07,320 --> 00:03:08,960
Chen Yunan will not detain Lord Peng.
54
00:03:11,000 --> 00:03:11,520
Good.
55
00:03:12,480 --> 00:03:13,080
It's good that she's fine.
56
00:03:14,960 --> 00:03:15,960
- Don't worry.
- It's good that she's fine.
57
00:03:16,960 --> 00:03:18,480
Peng Ziqi of the Southern Garrison,
58
00:03:19,320 --> 00:03:20,200
answer my question.
59
00:03:21,000 --> 00:03:22,280
Do you know when your Peng family
60
00:03:22,480 --> 00:03:24,800
began having dealings with the Lingxiao Gang?
61
00:03:25,160 --> 00:03:26,360
As far as I can remember,
62
00:03:27,680 --> 00:03:30,480
our family has had no dealings
with the Lingxiao Gang.
63
00:03:30,680 --> 00:03:32,280
So that means there were dealings before.
64
00:03:32,760 --> 00:03:33,920
Matters of our ancestors' generation
65
00:03:34,960 --> 00:03:37,520
are not for a junior like me to interfere with.
66
00:03:39,360 --> 00:03:40,880
Even if our Old Master Peng
67
00:03:41,200 --> 00:03:43,200
knew the leader of the Lingxiao Gang,
68
00:03:44,240 --> 00:03:45,960
that was before I was born,
69
00:03:47,440 --> 00:03:49,040
perhaps even earlier.
70
00:03:50,120 --> 00:03:51,760
There has been no contact for a long time.
71
00:03:52,200 --> 00:03:55,440
To blame our family for an old matter,
72
00:03:56,600 --> 00:03:59,080
I truly cannot accept.
73
00:04:01,880 --> 00:04:02,480
Lord Peng,
74
00:04:03,240 --> 00:04:05,880
we are both Imperial Guards,
by reason and sentiment,
75
00:04:06,520 --> 00:04:09,080
I cannot bear to see you remain in prison.
76
00:04:09,720 --> 00:04:11,280
You must not be accustomed to it either.
77
00:04:13,880 --> 00:04:15,080
I don't mind.
78
00:04:17,320 --> 00:04:18,800
Then let me ask you again.
79
00:04:19,400 --> 00:04:22,160
Did Bulwark Duke shield your Peng family
80
00:04:22,960 --> 00:04:25,160
regarding your relationship
with the Lingxiao Gang?
81
00:04:25,560 --> 00:04:29,200
If you want to condemn someone,
you can always trump up a charge.
82
00:04:31,240 --> 00:04:32,920
Our Peng family is completely innocent.
83
00:04:33,760 --> 00:04:36,440
How could Bulwark Duke
be accused of shielding anyone?
84
00:04:44,560 --> 00:04:47,480
Take the prisoner away for trial.
Court adjourned.
85
00:04:50,360 --> 00:04:51,120
We respectfully see you off, my lord.
86
00:04:57,560 --> 00:04:58,040
Let's go.
87
00:05:03,360 --> 00:05:04,160
Bulwark Duke,
88
00:05:04,880 --> 00:05:07,720
I'm afraid you'll have to stay
at Xianglin Temple for a few more days.
89
00:05:10,800 --> 00:05:11,400
My lord,
90
00:05:13,240 --> 00:05:15,640
judging by today's situation,
things don't look good.
91
00:05:16,120 --> 00:05:17,760
Tang Sai'er changed her testimony in court,
92
00:05:17,760 --> 00:05:19,120
and Peng Ziqi refused to say anything.
93
00:05:20,360 --> 00:05:20,920
It seems
94
00:05:21,360 --> 00:05:23,880
I'll have to have a good talk with them tonight,
95
00:05:24,000 --> 00:05:25,480
especially with this Peng Ziqi.
96
00:05:32,600 --> 00:05:33,800
Peng Ziqi...
97
00:05:34,880 --> 00:05:36,960
I know her personality best.
98
00:05:37,880 --> 00:05:39,320
She's as stubborn as a mule.
99
00:05:40,320 --> 00:05:41,680
As long as she doesn't want to talk,
100
00:05:42,400 --> 00:05:43,920
we have no way to force her.
101
00:05:45,400 --> 00:05:46,400
I dare say
102
00:05:46,520 --> 00:05:48,880
the Peng family is definitely
connected to the Lingxiao Gang,
103
00:05:49,720 --> 00:05:51,720
and Xia Xun must know the inside story.
104
00:05:52,480 --> 00:05:53,960
We haven't wronged him.
105
00:05:54,880 --> 00:05:56,240
The Emperor ordered the Censorate
106
00:05:56,440 --> 00:05:58,120
to investigate this case with great fanfare,
107
00:05:58,520 --> 00:05:59,760
clearly indicating he doesn't believe
108
00:05:59,960 --> 00:06:01,720
Xia Xun is connected to the Lingxiao Gang.
109
00:06:01,840 --> 00:06:02,400
Not necessarily.
110
00:06:04,480 --> 00:06:06,480
This matter involves rebellion.
111
00:06:06,680 --> 00:06:08,720
No Emperor would take it lightly.
112
00:06:09,000 --> 00:06:10,560
When the Emperor was still Prince Yan,
113
00:06:10,800 --> 00:06:14,080
there were rumors saying the court
had sent a letter to the Heir Apparent,
114
00:06:14,120 --> 00:06:16,160
promising to make him king
if he surrendered the city.
115
00:06:16,560 --> 00:06:17,680
Just by hearing about it,
116
00:06:18,240 --> 00:06:20,120
he plotted to kill the Heir Apparent.
117
00:06:21,640 --> 00:06:24,800
When it comes to the nation and power,
118
00:06:25,080 --> 00:06:28,560
even father and son can turn against each other,
let alone ruler and subject.
119
00:06:28,800 --> 00:06:30,200
My lord, are you suggesting
120
00:06:30,440 --> 00:06:32,160
we fabricate some evidence against him?
121
00:06:33,320 --> 00:06:34,640
It's too late for that now.
122
00:06:35,120 --> 00:06:37,760
If we had acted earlier,
we could have manipulated things.
123
00:06:39,120 --> 00:06:41,640
The longer we delay,
the more likely it will go wrong. We must hurry.
124
00:06:42,120 --> 00:06:42,680
What if
125
00:06:42,880 --> 00:06:44,640
we ask Lord Chen Ying to help smooth things over?
126
00:06:45,640 --> 00:06:46,320
Chen Ying?
127
00:06:48,360 --> 00:06:51,560
His Censorate and our Imperial Guards
128
00:06:51,880 --> 00:06:54,320
both investigate officials for the Emperor.
129
00:06:55,640 --> 00:06:57,200
The pie is only so big.
130
00:06:57,960 --> 00:06:59,240
If Chen Ying takes a larger slice,
131
00:06:59,640 --> 00:07:01,400
naturally, we get less.
132
00:07:01,960 --> 00:07:02,960
Besides, this case
133
00:07:03,360 --> 00:07:05,200
was uncovered by our Imperial Guards.
134
00:07:05,640 --> 00:07:07,800
Why should we let them take credit?
135
00:07:20,360 --> 00:07:21,160
I have an idea.
136
00:07:58,960 --> 00:07:59,680
Xia Xun,
137
00:08:00,800 --> 00:08:01,920
you must be careful.
138
00:08:04,960 --> 00:08:06,680
They came prepared.
139
00:08:09,400 --> 00:08:11,480
I don't think I'll make it through this ordeal.
140
00:08:45,560 --> 00:08:47,720
My wife is still the most impressive.
141
00:08:48,880 --> 00:08:49,560
Is that so?
142
00:08:49,760 --> 00:08:50,640
It hurts.
143
00:08:50,840 --> 00:08:52,960
As long as the Princess Consort is pleased.
144
00:08:53,000 --> 00:08:54,880
I like the Princess Consort just like this.
145
00:08:56,440 --> 00:08:57,720
It hurts, it hurts!
146
00:09:02,400 --> 00:09:03,080
Ziqi.
147
00:09:03,800 --> 00:09:06,040
I don't want to be all alone when I'm old.
148
00:09:06,280 --> 00:09:08,320
Please take pity on me and marry me.
149
00:09:09,360 --> 00:09:10,760
Back on Shuangyu Island,
150
00:09:10,880 --> 00:09:12,400
during that life-or-death crisis,
151
00:09:13,440 --> 00:09:15,880
if I hadn't kept thinking that
as long as I could survive,
152
00:09:15,880 --> 00:09:17,560
I could marry you and bring you home as my wife,
153
00:09:17,600 --> 00:09:18,880
I would have turned and run long ago.
154
00:09:19,120 --> 00:09:20,680
I risked my life for you,
155
00:09:20,680 --> 00:09:22,240
summoned the courage to be your peerless hero.
156
00:09:22,280 --> 00:09:23,320
Now that I've finally succeeded,
157
00:09:23,320 --> 00:09:24,400
do you want to go back on your word?
158
00:09:24,480 --> 00:09:26,200
This is what you call abandoning me
after leading me on.
159
00:10:08,600 --> 00:10:12,200
I want to live, I can't give up.
160
00:10:49,600 --> 00:10:52,480
Fire! Come quickly, put out the fire!
161
00:10:52,520 --> 00:10:54,040
- Someone, quick!
- Put out the fire!
162
00:10:54,960 --> 00:10:57,200
Water, hurry, bring water!
163
00:11:00,400 --> 00:11:00,920
Quick!
164
00:11:03,440 --> 00:11:04,280
Bring water!
165
00:11:04,800 --> 00:11:06,360
Over here, over here!
166
00:11:07,280 --> 00:11:10,000
Quick, bring water, put out the fire!
167
00:11:13,280 --> 00:11:15,280
Hurry up, quick, hurry up!
168
00:11:16,400 --> 00:11:18,720
Something happened last night. What was it?
169
00:11:18,720 --> 00:11:21,920
The Porcelain Tower was scheduled
for completion this month.
170
00:11:22,720 --> 00:11:25,920
Half the tower was burnt down.
171
00:11:26,600 --> 00:11:28,160
All the previous efforts have been wasted.
172
00:11:29,280 --> 00:11:31,600
Does the Emperor know about this?
173
00:11:32,200 --> 00:11:34,560
If it's not ready by the anniversary
of Empress Xiaoci's passing,
174
00:11:34,800 --> 00:11:36,800
I'm afraid His Majesty will be furious.
175
00:11:37,320 --> 00:11:38,400
That's true.
176
00:11:38,840 --> 00:11:39,600
This time,
177
00:11:39,640 --> 00:11:41,920
who knows how many more people
will lose their heads.
178
00:11:43,200 --> 00:11:44,560
Let me tell you all.
179
00:11:45,800 --> 00:11:48,920
The Emperor didn't want to use those people
180
00:11:49,520 --> 00:11:52,040
because they were just ordinary farmers
181
00:11:52,720 --> 00:11:54,520
who knew nothing about construction.
182
00:11:55,440 --> 00:11:57,000
But Bulwark Duke, Xia Xun,
183
00:11:58,200 --> 00:12:00,400
still insisted on doing it this way.
184
00:12:01,960 --> 00:12:04,960
Everyone should understand clearly now.
185
00:12:05,200 --> 00:12:07,480
The Emperor has arrived!
186
00:12:23,760 --> 00:12:28,760
Long live the Emperor, long live, long live!
187
00:12:30,960 --> 00:12:32,280
All ministers, rise.
188
00:12:32,760 --> 00:12:34,880
Thank you, Your Majesty.
189
00:12:36,720 --> 00:12:38,920
Father, the fire at the Porcelain Tower
190
00:12:39,760 --> 00:12:41,160
causes me great distress.
191
00:12:42,080 --> 00:12:44,280
It shows disrespect and disregard
for Empress Xiaoci.
192
00:12:45,440 --> 00:12:46,160
I believe
193
00:12:46,440 --> 00:12:48,280
those responsible must be severely punished.
194
00:12:48,960 --> 00:12:50,440
If I recall correctly,
195
00:12:51,840 --> 00:12:53,440
the person in charge is Xia Xun, right?
196
00:12:54,040 --> 00:12:54,640
Father,
197
00:12:55,640 --> 00:12:57,000
regarding the fire incident,
198
00:12:57,600 --> 00:13:00,760
I have been worried ever
since I heard about it last night.
199
00:13:01,280 --> 00:13:02,960
All the concerns I had before
200
00:13:03,680 --> 00:13:05,960
have now become reality today.
201
00:13:07,200 --> 00:13:07,840
Therefore,
202
00:13:08,000 --> 00:13:10,760
there are some words I must say.
203
00:13:13,960 --> 00:13:17,720
I believe that regarding the fire incident,
204
00:13:18,560 --> 00:13:22,280
someone must created trouble deliberately.
205
00:13:23,080 --> 00:13:25,680
They want to implicate Bulwark Duke, Xia Xun.
206
00:13:26,200 --> 00:13:26,800
Now,
207
00:13:27,080 --> 00:13:29,920
at this critical moment in the trial
of the Lingxiao Gang case,
208
00:13:30,520 --> 00:13:33,000
it just happens to be so coincidental.
209
00:13:33,520 --> 00:13:34,200
Isn't it
210
00:13:34,560 --> 00:13:38,600
that someone wants to hit Xia Xun
when he's down?
211
00:13:39,000 --> 00:13:39,640
Thus,
212
00:13:40,160 --> 00:13:41,800
deducing from this,
213
00:13:42,800 --> 00:13:43,920
the Lingxiao Gang case
214
00:13:44,720 --> 00:13:49,000
is also someone's deliberate attempt to frame
215
00:13:49,040 --> 00:13:50,720
and falsely accuse Bulwark Duke?
216
00:13:51,080 --> 00:13:52,080
I also think
217
00:13:52,280 --> 00:13:55,600
the timing of this fire seems too coincidental.
218
00:13:57,320 --> 00:13:58,520
It is very likely
219
00:13:59,240 --> 00:14:03,480
that Bulwark Duke's allies
set the fire for self-preservation.
220
00:14:04,360 --> 00:14:09,200
This shows Bulwark Duke's fear and guilt.
221
00:14:09,600 --> 00:14:10,920
Taking a desperate risk.
222
00:14:10,960 --> 00:14:11,560
Nonsense!
223
00:14:12,680 --> 00:14:15,840
Bulwark Duke has always been
open and aboveboard, upright and honest.
224
00:14:15,960 --> 00:14:18,840
The innocent remain clear.
What does he have to fear?
225
00:14:19,240 --> 00:14:20,400
If he were truly so upright,
226
00:14:20,560 --> 00:14:22,280
how could he be involved with the Lingxiao Gang?
227
00:14:22,320 --> 00:14:24,520
This matter has not been fully investigated yet.
228
00:14:24,640 --> 00:14:27,240
Do not speak recklessly and jump to conclusions!
229
00:14:27,280 --> 00:14:28,120
Have you all finished arguing?
230
00:14:37,360 --> 00:14:38,880
The fire at Porcelain Tower.
231
00:14:39,120 --> 00:14:43,760
Bulwark Duke bears responsibility
for inadequate supervision.
232
00:14:44,840 --> 00:14:47,080
But he has not been on-site these past few days.
233
00:14:47,480 --> 00:14:48,680
This is also a fact.
234
00:14:50,840 --> 00:14:53,680
This case, hand it over to the Dali Temple.
235
00:14:55,120 --> 00:14:58,600
Investigate the true cause of the fire for me.
236
00:14:59,240 --> 00:14:59,920
If...
237
00:15:00,800 --> 00:15:03,480
it truly was an accidental fire,
238
00:15:04,840 --> 00:15:05,320
then...
239
00:15:06,960 --> 00:15:10,360
consider it as me accumulating virtue
for Empress Xiaoci.
240
00:15:12,120 --> 00:15:14,720
But if someone intentionally set the fire,
241
00:15:15,360 --> 00:15:18,640
find out who it is for me,
execute them without mercy.
242
00:15:21,080 --> 00:15:22,800
Court is dismissed.
243
00:15:24,640 --> 00:15:29,640
Long live the Emperor, may he live ten thousand years.
244
00:15:55,960 --> 00:15:56,600
Your Majesty.
245
00:15:58,160 --> 00:15:58,760
What is it?
246
00:15:59,720 --> 00:16:00,960
I have carefully inspected.
247
00:16:01,480 --> 00:16:03,840
The fire started from the inner side
of the temple wall.
248
00:16:04,200 --> 00:16:04,800
Therefore,
249
00:16:04,960 --> 00:16:07,040
the possibility of someone intentionally
setting the fire is high.
250
00:16:07,680 --> 00:16:11,000
Not possible, but certain.
251
00:16:13,360 --> 00:16:13,960
Tell me,
252
00:16:15,440 --> 00:16:16,240
this fire...
253
00:16:17,320 --> 00:16:19,920
was it set by those who want Xia Xun dead,
254
00:16:20,600 --> 00:16:22,880
or by those who want Xia Xun alive?
255
00:16:23,640 --> 00:16:26,840
In reply to Your Majesty, I do not know.
256
00:16:34,880 --> 00:16:36,280
What clever scheming!
257
00:16:38,200 --> 00:16:40,120
No matter how I react,
258
00:16:40,400 --> 00:16:43,200
it will be exploited by those
with ulterior motives.
259
00:16:48,360 --> 00:16:48,960
Mu En.
260
00:16:49,160 --> 00:16:49,840
Your servant is here.
261
00:16:50,080 --> 00:16:51,520
Issue an edict to the Censorate.
262
00:16:52,960 --> 00:16:54,280
Regarding the Lingxiao Gang case,
263
00:16:54,640 --> 00:16:57,920
they must deliver a verdict
to Us within seven days.
264
00:16:58,360 --> 00:16:58,880
Yes.
265
00:17:10,120 --> 00:17:10,880
What did you say?
266
00:17:11,160 --> 00:17:12,400
The Porcelain Tower has caught fire?
267
00:17:13,560 --> 00:17:15,920
The Emperor suspects Xia Xun set the fire.
268
00:17:16,360 --> 00:17:18,560
I don't know whether it's confirmed or not.
269
00:17:18,800 --> 00:17:19,960
It's just that after the court adjourned today,
270
00:17:20,000 --> 00:17:21,080
many officials were discussing,
271
00:17:21,240 --> 00:17:22,960
saying Bulwark Duke has run into bad luck.
272
00:17:23,080 --> 00:17:24,720
The Emperor has issued an edict
to investigate the cause of the fire.
273
00:17:25,320 --> 00:17:25,880
Madam.
274
00:17:26,240 --> 00:17:27,440
All these recent incidents
275
00:17:27,720 --> 00:17:29,040
have been premeditated by someone.
276
00:17:29,240 --> 00:17:31,000
They are trying to put Bulwark Duke to death.
277
00:17:31,640 --> 00:17:32,560
Please rest assured, Madam.
278
00:17:32,880 --> 00:17:34,720
We, the Feilong Secret Agents,
will mobilize all our resources
279
00:17:34,960 --> 00:17:36,320
to help Bulwark Duke overcome this crisis.
280
00:17:36,800 --> 00:17:38,560
This time, it's another crime added on top.
281
00:17:38,680 --> 00:17:40,320
I'm afraid Xia Xun will
find it hard to escape this calamity.
282
00:17:41,080 --> 00:17:41,840
You may leave now.
283
00:17:42,120 --> 00:17:43,440
Tell all the brothers to be careful.
284
00:17:43,560 --> 00:17:44,240
At this moment,
285
00:17:44,280 --> 00:17:45,640
we can't afford any more storms.
286
00:17:45,880 --> 00:17:46,280
Yes.
287
00:17:58,560 --> 00:17:59,200
Princess.
288
00:18:00,240 --> 00:18:01,520
Please help Xia Xun.
289
00:18:01,640 --> 00:18:03,400
Help him get through this crisis.
290
00:18:06,040 --> 00:18:09,880
Then what is the price for you seeking my help?
291
00:18:10,360 --> 00:18:11,760
Then what exactly do you want?
292
00:18:12,200 --> 00:18:14,600
I want you to sever all ties with him directly
293
00:18:15,040 --> 00:18:17,160
and never see him again.
294
00:18:25,800 --> 00:18:26,320
Prepare the sedan.
295
00:18:26,880 --> 00:18:28,280
I'm going to the palace to see the Princess.
296
00:18:28,400 --> 00:18:29,120
Yes, Madam.
297
00:18:36,360 --> 00:18:37,040
Princess.
298
00:18:37,320 --> 00:18:40,040
With so many things happening
to Bulwark Duke these past two days,
299
00:18:40,440 --> 00:18:42,720
aren't you worried at all?
300
00:18:42,880 --> 00:18:43,760
Or is it that
301
00:18:44,000 --> 00:18:45,760
the Princess is no longer interested in him?
302
00:18:46,320 --> 00:18:48,120
I know all about those things.
303
00:18:48,840 --> 00:18:49,720
It's fine.
304
00:18:50,520 --> 00:18:53,160
My brother-in-law likes Xia Xun very much.
305
00:18:53,440 --> 00:18:55,000
He won't punish him lightly.
306
00:18:55,840 --> 00:18:56,920
Besides,
307
00:18:57,080 --> 00:18:59,600
everything is under my control now.
308
00:19:00,000 --> 00:19:00,880
It's fine.
309
00:19:02,000 --> 00:19:03,120
It's just that...
310
00:19:04,400 --> 00:19:05,280
perhaps...
311
00:19:05,520 --> 00:19:07,840
someone is hiding at home crying right now.
312
00:19:11,160 --> 00:19:13,240
Princess, Bulwark Duchess is here.
313
00:19:14,080 --> 00:19:15,720
Speak of the devil.
314
00:19:16,360 --> 00:19:17,880
Quick, let her in.
315
00:19:18,480 --> 00:19:18,920
Yes.
316
00:19:24,760 --> 00:19:25,200
Please.
317
00:19:30,960 --> 00:19:33,160
- Why is this pattern so complicated?
- Please.
318
00:19:33,720 --> 00:19:35,200
One peony is enough.
319
00:19:35,440 --> 00:19:37,880
Why add those weeds and small flowers around it?
320
00:19:38,520 --> 00:19:42,200
It's these weeds that
highlight the peony's beauty.
321
00:19:42,760 --> 00:19:44,080
That makes sense.
322
00:19:49,320 --> 00:19:50,360
Sister Xie.
323
00:19:50,640 --> 00:19:51,920
As you can see, I'm quite busy right now.
324
00:19:52,000 --> 00:19:53,200
I didn't even know you had arrived.
325
00:19:54,960 --> 00:19:55,600
Princess.
326
00:19:57,200 --> 00:19:59,960
This guilty woman wishes to
discuss with the Princess alone.
327
00:20:01,240 --> 00:20:02,320
You may leave.
328
00:20:02,720 --> 00:20:05,320
I'll have a heart-to-heart talk with Sister Xie.
329
00:20:05,640 --> 00:20:06,400
Yes.
330
00:20:11,760 --> 00:20:13,440
Speak. What is it?
331
00:20:22,080 --> 00:20:22,680
Princess.
332
00:20:25,200 --> 00:20:27,240
Xia Xun is currently entangled in two cases.
333
00:20:27,520 --> 00:20:29,680
The Lingxiao Gang and the Porcelain Tower.
334
00:20:32,320 --> 00:20:35,400
Now, I am powerless to help.
335
00:20:36,520 --> 00:20:37,520
I only beg the Princess
336
00:20:38,320 --> 00:20:41,440
to help Xia Xun overcome this crisis.
337
00:20:42,480 --> 00:20:43,200
I can...
338
00:20:45,360 --> 00:20:47,360
I can agree to your demand, Princess.
339
00:20:48,760 --> 00:20:49,920
From now on, I will sever all ties
340
00:20:51,000 --> 00:20:52,000
with Xia Xun.
341
00:20:54,880 --> 00:20:56,040
Excellent!
342
00:20:56,760 --> 00:20:57,880
I knew it!
343
00:20:58,440 --> 00:21:00,920
Sensible and understanding as you are.
344
00:21:01,160 --> 00:21:03,240
How could you possibly
make things difficult for Bulwark Duke?
345
00:21:07,680 --> 00:21:09,760
Do you remember the other demand
346
00:21:09,760 --> 00:21:11,320
I mentioned to you last time?
347
00:21:13,000 --> 00:21:14,080
For me,
348
00:21:14,240 --> 00:21:16,240
I'm afraid that after you leave Bulwark Duke,
349
00:21:16,680 --> 00:21:18,960
you might maintain lingering ties with him.
350
00:21:19,680 --> 00:21:21,480
The way to end this once and for all
351
00:21:22,200 --> 00:21:24,960
is to make Bulwark Duke
give up on you completely.
352
00:21:27,080 --> 00:21:27,840
Sister,
353
00:21:28,080 --> 00:21:29,880
Ming'er has already been very kind to you.
354
00:21:30,120 --> 00:21:31,920
You just need to remarry Ji Gang, that's all.
355
00:21:32,960 --> 00:21:33,640
Otherwise,
356
00:21:33,760 --> 00:21:35,360
I could order you to remarry one of those
357
00:21:35,640 --> 00:21:38,080
gate guards or gardeners
from the imperial gardens.
358
00:21:38,240 --> 00:21:39,960
Wouldn't that be even worse?
359
00:21:41,600 --> 00:21:43,920
Must I really remarry?
360
00:21:44,720 --> 00:21:46,280
If the Princess is still concerned,
361
00:21:46,400 --> 00:21:47,760
I swear to leave Jinling
362
00:21:47,760 --> 00:21:49,440
and never see Xia Xun for the rest of my life.
363
00:21:50,440 --> 00:21:52,200
Other than remarrying Ji Gang,
364
00:21:52,760 --> 00:21:54,120
you have no other way out.
365
00:22:00,960 --> 00:22:02,240
Have you made your decision?
366
00:22:03,080 --> 00:22:05,520
Will you marry, or not?
367
00:22:14,080 --> 00:22:16,120
I will obey the Princess's command.
368
00:22:20,880 --> 00:22:21,560
Very good.
369
00:22:32,000 --> 00:22:32,520
Princess.
370
00:22:32,520 --> 00:22:33,040
Where is Ji Gang?
371
00:22:33,760 --> 00:22:35,200
Lord Ji has ordered that he will see no one.
372
00:22:37,160 --> 00:22:37,720
Princess.
373
00:22:37,960 --> 00:22:40,080
Please don't make things difficult for me.
374
00:22:40,320 --> 00:22:40,840
Princess!
375
00:22:41,600 --> 00:22:42,080
Step aside.
376
00:22:42,120 --> 00:22:42,680
Princess.
377
00:22:47,000 --> 00:22:47,520
My Lord!
378
00:22:48,400 --> 00:22:51,400
Princess, how did you get in?
379
00:22:52,240 --> 00:22:55,480
This is the thing you've
been longing for day and night.
380
00:22:56,320 --> 00:22:57,360
Would you like to see it?
[Letter to Xia Xun]
381
00:22:57,880 --> 00:22:58,640
Or should I leave?
382
00:22:58,680 --> 00:22:59,080
Wait.
383
00:23:01,480 --> 00:23:03,760
You go out first.
I have something to say to the Princess.
384
00:23:04,080 --> 00:23:04,920
Yes, my lord.
385
00:23:13,880 --> 00:23:16,360
This was just personally written by Sister Xie.
386
00:23:16,640 --> 00:23:18,040
The ink hasn't even dried yet.
387
00:23:18,960 --> 00:23:20,960
That fool, in order to save Xia Xun,
388
00:23:21,200 --> 00:23:22,600
indeed volunteered to be divorced.
389
00:23:23,400 --> 00:23:25,920
But I also took the opportunity
to do you a favor.
390
00:23:28,080 --> 00:23:31,960
Princess, you're still too naive.
391
00:23:33,240 --> 00:23:33,920
What's wrong?
392
00:23:35,720 --> 00:23:37,200
Have you read this letter carefully?
393
00:23:43,440 --> 00:23:44,960
Isn't it just a farewell letter?
394
00:23:45,280 --> 00:23:45,760
Wrong.
395
00:23:47,440 --> 00:23:48,920
This is an acrostic poem.
396
00:23:50,640 --> 00:23:52,560
The keywords are in the third-to-last position.
397
00:23:55,400 --> 00:23:58,800
Wish to never part, never abandon.
398
00:23:59,960 --> 00:24:02,520
That wretch! She dares to deceive me!
399
00:24:02,960 --> 00:24:04,080
What does she take me for?
400
00:24:06,160 --> 00:24:07,680
Wait here. I'll go find her.
401
00:24:16,480 --> 00:24:18,160
Never part, never abandon.
402
00:24:27,200 --> 00:24:28,040
As the Princess commands,
403
00:24:28,080 --> 00:24:29,440
this guilty woman has completed everything.
404
00:24:29,680 --> 00:24:31,120
I wonder if there's anything else
you're dissatisfied with?
405
00:24:40,360 --> 00:24:42,360
You dare to treat me like a fool!
406
00:24:42,560 --> 00:24:43,240
Do you think I can't see
407
00:24:43,280 --> 00:24:44,960
the little tricks you played in your letter?
408
00:24:45,960 --> 00:24:47,720
If this is your attitude towards me,
409
00:24:49,080 --> 00:24:50,240
then I tell you,
410
00:24:50,960 --> 00:24:52,880
you can just wait at home
to collect Xia Xun's corpse.
411
00:24:55,040 --> 00:24:56,920
Please, Princess, give me one more chance.
412
00:24:57,520 --> 00:24:58,120
This time,
413
00:24:58,560 --> 00:25:00,440
this time I will not deceive the Princess again.
414
00:25:06,520 --> 00:25:07,600
Kowtow to me.
415
00:25:09,560 --> 00:25:12,760
Kowtow to me, and I'll give you one more chance.
416
00:25:27,520 --> 00:25:31,920
Princess, you are magnanimous and generous.
417
00:25:33,960 --> 00:25:35,760
Please forgive me
418
00:25:36,320 --> 00:25:37,640
for my previous mistakes.
419
00:26:06,000 --> 00:26:08,000
[Letter to Xia Xun]
420
00:26:15,600 --> 00:26:16,880
That's more like it.
421
00:26:17,520 --> 00:26:19,920
If you had shown this attitude earlier,
it would have been fine.
422
00:26:20,360 --> 00:26:21,960
You're making things hard for yourself.
423
00:26:23,960 --> 00:26:25,600
I'll go to Xianglin Temple now
424
00:26:25,800 --> 00:26:27,400
and give this letter to Xia Xun.
425
00:26:31,360 --> 00:26:35,120
Don't worry. All this will be over soon.
426
00:26:37,040 --> 00:26:37,960
Princess, please wait.
427
00:26:45,520 --> 00:26:47,640
When Xia Xun left,
he didn't take anything with him.
428
00:26:48,800 --> 00:26:52,000
I'm worried he might catch a cold in the temple.
429
00:26:52,200 --> 00:26:53,440
Please, Princess, take these to him.
430
00:27:00,840 --> 00:27:03,120
These are all things Xia Xun
usually likes to eat.
431
00:27:04,280 --> 00:27:05,520
When the Princess sees him,
432
00:27:05,880 --> 00:27:07,520
please remind him to eat on time
433
00:27:07,800 --> 00:27:09,000
and take good care of himself.
434
00:27:15,880 --> 00:27:17,320
Sister Xie,
435
00:27:17,800 --> 00:27:19,240
in the future, such matters
436
00:27:19,720 --> 00:27:22,160
won't trouble you at all.
437
00:27:32,760 --> 00:27:33,360
Princess,
438
00:27:35,160 --> 00:27:35,960
why have you come here?
439
00:27:36,640 --> 00:27:38,760
I guessed you probably have nothing here.
440
00:27:38,960 --> 00:27:41,000
So I specially prepared your favorite foods.
441
00:27:41,880 --> 00:27:43,360
So, thank me.
442
00:27:45,080 --> 00:27:45,600
Sit down.
443
00:27:51,000 --> 00:27:51,920
Water Chestnut Cake.
444
00:27:58,360 --> 00:27:59,680
How are Xie and Ximen?
445
00:28:00,680 --> 00:28:02,160
Has Ximen's injury improved?
446
00:28:02,360 --> 00:28:03,040
Xie, is she...
447
00:28:04,960 --> 00:28:06,160
Is she running around everywhere again?
448
00:28:06,400 --> 00:28:07,920
I don't know if she's been running around.
449
00:28:08,400 --> 00:28:11,240
But Xie asked me to give this to you.
450
00:28:18,240 --> 00:28:22,360
You go your way, I'll go mine.
How shall we live on?
451
00:28:23,080 --> 00:28:25,840
I will not think of you,
you should not think of me either.
452
00:28:26,360 --> 00:28:29,640
Take the heart you once gave me
and give it to someone else.
453
00:28:34,680 --> 00:28:36,040
What does this letter mean?
454
00:28:36,400 --> 00:28:38,400
You should know very well what it means.
455
00:28:38,760 --> 00:28:40,400
She wants you to divorce her,
456
00:28:40,440 --> 00:28:41,800
and go your separate ways from now on.
457
00:28:45,040 --> 00:28:47,840
Now the whole Jinling knows
that Bulwark Duke is colluding with bandits.
458
00:28:47,960 --> 00:28:49,000
The evidence is conclusive.
459
00:28:49,400 --> 00:28:52,240
Plus the big fire at Porcelain Tower yesterday,
460
00:28:52,480 --> 00:28:54,280
everyone thinks Bulwark Duke is finished.
461
00:28:54,760 --> 00:28:55,880
Sister Xie...
462
00:28:56,240 --> 00:28:58,360
She's just afraid of being implicated.
463
00:29:12,680 --> 00:29:14,880
From the day you were imprisoned,
464
00:29:15,120 --> 00:29:17,440
Sister Xie has been running
to Ji Gang's place every day.
465
00:29:17,680 --> 00:29:18,720
You know this too.
466
00:29:19,000 --> 00:29:21,920
Ji Gang is deeply infatuated with Sister Xie.
467
00:29:22,960 --> 00:29:25,960
They are now extremely close,
468
00:29:25,960 --> 00:29:27,400
- so ambiguous.
- Princess, please don't say anymore.
469
00:29:28,800 --> 00:29:29,520
I understand very well.
470
00:29:31,200 --> 00:29:32,880
She is not a heartless and ungrateful person.
471
00:29:34,040 --> 00:29:34,920
Xia Xun.
472
00:29:35,400 --> 00:29:37,400
I know it's hard for you to accept right now.
473
00:29:37,600 --> 00:29:39,200
But Sister Xie really did
474
00:29:39,240 --> 00:29:41,640
ask me to personally deliver this letter to you.
475
00:29:44,600 --> 00:29:47,880
Such a heartless and ungrateful person,
it's better if you divorce her.
476
00:30:38,840 --> 00:30:39,600
Xie.
477
00:30:41,160 --> 00:30:42,400
I've already heard.
478
00:30:44,280 --> 00:30:48,280
Are you willing to leave Xia Xun and marry me?
479
00:30:51,680 --> 00:30:54,520
As long as the Princess can save Xia Xun,
480
00:30:55,960 --> 00:30:58,720
I can do anything.
481
00:31:10,520 --> 00:31:11,400
About my feelings...
482
00:31:13,240 --> 00:31:15,040
Actually, you should understand best.
483
00:31:17,640 --> 00:31:19,200
From the first time I saw you,
484
00:31:20,840 --> 00:31:22,680
I already liked you.
485
00:31:23,680 --> 00:31:24,280
But...
486
00:31:26,520 --> 00:31:28,040
no matter how hard I try,
487
00:31:29,960 --> 00:31:31,640
I always fall short of Brother Xia.
488
00:31:35,000 --> 00:31:36,760
That's not what I'm here to say.
489
00:31:39,480 --> 00:31:40,480
What I want to say is...
490
00:31:44,600 --> 00:31:45,800
because I love you,
491
00:31:46,880 --> 00:31:47,480
so...
492
00:31:49,120 --> 00:31:50,920
I don't want to force you to marry me.
493
00:32:02,960 --> 00:32:03,720
At worst, I...
494
00:32:04,080 --> 00:32:05,800
We just won't go beg Xu Ming'er.
495
00:32:06,160 --> 00:32:08,360
I'll save Xia Xun.
I'll destroy that physical evidence.
496
00:32:08,760 --> 00:32:09,920
I think I can find a way.
497
00:32:10,720 --> 00:32:11,400
Impossible.
498
00:32:20,960 --> 00:32:23,280
The Princess has taken this opportunity.
499
00:32:25,040 --> 00:32:25,800
Even if...
500
00:32:26,160 --> 00:32:28,520
I ultimately don't marry you as she arranged,
501
00:32:29,880 --> 00:32:31,600
she won't let me and Xia Xun off either.
502
00:32:34,160 --> 00:32:34,920
Only when I...
503
00:32:36,280 --> 00:32:38,800
completely follow her wish to leave Xia Xun,
504
00:32:39,200 --> 00:32:41,520
can she secure a bright future for Xia Xun.
505
00:32:44,480 --> 00:32:46,400
Actually, what more do I have to hesitate about?
506
00:32:48,880 --> 00:32:51,520
Just let Xia Xun be with the Princess.
507
00:32:53,120 --> 00:32:54,840
And I will follow you, Ji.
508
00:32:56,440 --> 00:32:59,640
I promised the Princess, I cannot break my word.
509
00:33:09,960 --> 00:33:10,640
Xie.
510
00:33:11,840 --> 00:33:13,240
I hope after this matter
511
00:33:14,000 --> 00:33:16,720
we will never part, never abandon.
512
00:33:20,200 --> 00:33:22,200
[Letter to Xia Xun]
513
00:33:22,200 --> 00:33:23,800
This is already the third letter.
514
00:33:24,120 --> 00:33:25,840
Each one more heartless than the last.
515
00:33:26,160 --> 00:33:27,680
When a woman is ruthless,
516
00:33:27,680 --> 00:33:29,160
she really doesn't beat around the bush.
517
00:33:33,680 --> 00:33:35,000
Why are you still hesitating?
518
00:33:35,240 --> 00:33:36,520
Why don't you just follow her wishes
519
00:33:36,520 --> 00:33:37,320
and divorce her?
520
00:33:37,560 --> 00:33:39,200
So that she can fly together with Ji Gang.
521
00:33:39,960 --> 00:33:41,120
Xie is not that kind of person.
522
00:33:41,240 --> 00:33:43,120
She's like this and you still believe her?
523
00:33:49,800 --> 00:33:50,880
Greetings, Princess.
524
00:33:52,000 --> 00:33:54,920
The Princess comes day and night
to accompany Bulwark Duke.
525
00:33:55,800 --> 00:33:57,880
Such deep affection and loyalty.
526
00:33:58,360 --> 00:34:00,680
Yes, unlike some people,
527
00:34:01,080 --> 00:34:02,640
whose own husband is in trouble,
528
00:34:03,040 --> 00:34:04,920
not only hasn't visited for a single day,
529
00:34:05,120 --> 00:34:06,480
but also kicks him when he's down.
530
00:34:09,560 --> 00:34:10,240
Lord Xue.
531
00:34:12,000 --> 00:34:13,920
In a few days, I will have my second trial.
532
00:34:14,840 --> 00:34:16,480
This time, it's two cases combined into one.
533
00:34:17,320 --> 00:34:18,160
You should be focusing
534
00:34:18,200 --> 00:34:20,080
on investigating the Porcelain Tower fire.
535
00:34:21,480 --> 00:34:22,720
What are you doing here?
536
00:34:24,760 --> 00:34:25,320
My Lord,
537
00:34:25,760 --> 00:34:28,800
This was brought from
Bulwark Duke's residence to you.
538
00:34:29,200 --> 00:34:32,240
My Lord, should I have someone
test it for poison first?
539
00:34:32,720 --> 00:34:33,760
Bulwark Duke's residence?
540
00:34:34,160 --> 00:34:35,320
No, this is definitely a trick!
541
00:34:35,320 --> 00:34:35,920
No need.
542
00:34:38,320 --> 00:34:39,040
You may leave.
543
00:34:39,640 --> 00:34:42,280
Yes, my Lord. Call if you need anything.
544
00:34:45,680 --> 00:34:47,160
Xia Xun, are you really going to...
545
00:35:05,440 --> 00:35:06,760
The arson was a false accusation and frame-up.
546
00:35:07,000 --> 00:35:08,800
Madam has been visiting Ji Gang frequently.
547
00:35:09,280 --> 00:35:11,120
Rumors say the Ji residence
is preparing for a grand wedding.
548
00:35:12,320 --> 00:35:13,640
All of this is true.
549
00:35:21,280 --> 00:35:23,760
Sister Xie, accustomed to a life of luxury,
550
00:35:24,200 --> 00:35:25,920
is now starting to plan for herself
551
00:35:26,240 --> 00:35:27,640
and climb to a higher branch, isn't she?
552
00:35:53,960 --> 00:35:55,360
Why don't you believe me?
553
00:35:56,600 --> 00:35:59,160
Can we only share joy but not hardship?
554
00:36:00,320 --> 00:36:02,840
If you want to leave, to remarry, go head.
[Divorce Letter]
555
00:36:03,520 --> 00:36:05,000
But why him of all people?
556
00:36:06,360 --> 00:36:07,600
Why Ji Gang?
557
00:36:08,480 --> 00:36:11,520
Fine, I will grant your wish.
558
00:36:12,320 --> 00:36:14,240
Give you back a future of wealth and honor.
559
00:36:34,760 --> 00:36:36,240
Princess, please help me convey to her.
560
00:36:38,600 --> 00:36:40,840
This is the last thing I can do for her.
561
00:37:11,480 --> 00:37:13,480
[Divorce Letter]
562
00:37:13,480 --> 00:37:16,280
I watched Xia Xun write this with my own eyes.
563
00:37:17,320 --> 00:37:20,040
Ji Gang, we have finally reached better days.
564
00:37:20,480 --> 00:37:21,600
With this letter of divorce,
565
00:37:21,960 --> 00:37:24,520
you can openly welcome Xie Yufei into your home.
566
00:37:25,000 --> 00:37:26,920
And since Xia Xun has accepted my favor,
567
00:37:27,440 --> 00:37:29,800
he certainly can't refuse me anymore, can he?
568
00:37:32,800 --> 00:37:33,720
Congratulations, Princess.
569
00:37:34,240 --> 00:37:36,000
Heaven rewards the diligent.
570
00:37:36,360 --> 00:37:39,400
After going around in circles,
Xia Xun finally understands
571
00:37:39,560 --> 00:37:41,600
who truly cares for him
572
00:37:42,200 --> 00:37:45,280
and who is his destined woman.
573
00:37:46,720 --> 00:37:48,840
I must deliver this to
the Bulwark Duke's residence immediately.
574
00:37:49,440 --> 00:37:50,800
I can hardly wait
575
00:37:50,800 --> 00:37:52,560
to see Xie Yufei's expression.
576
00:37:54,560 --> 00:37:55,040
Ji Gang,
577
00:37:55,960 --> 00:37:57,840
as we agreed earlier,
578
00:37:57,960 --> 00:38:00,320
you must help Xia Xun
clear his name regarding Lingxiao Gang.
579
00:38:00,880 --> 00:38:02,200
Tell him to go home quickly.
580
00:38:02,240 --> 00:38:03,600
He shouldn't stay in that temple any longer.
581
00:38:09,240 --> 00:38:10,040
Excellent!
582
00:38:11,600 --> 00:38:14,840
Xie can finally marry me legitimately.
583
00:38:19,080 --> 00:38:20,080
Xia Xun...
584
00:38:22,200 --> 00:38:23,400
should be killed.
585
00:38:44,440 --> 00:38:46,280
I've just met with Xia Xun.
586
00:38:46,600 --> 00:38:47,920
He's doing very well now.
587
00:38:51,880 --> 00:38:54,560
Husband and wife
are like birds in the same forest.
588
00:38:55,080 --> 00:38:57,600
When disaster strikes, each flies away.
589
00:39:00,360 --> 00:39:01,360
Sister Xie,
590
00:39:03,200 --> 00:39:04,240
tell me.
591
00:39:04,600 --> 00:39:06,720
Does Xia Xun understand you too well?
592
00:39:07,080 --> 00:39:08,760
Or does he not understand you at all?
593
00:39:13,600 --> 00:39:16,600
Seeking profit and avoiding harm
is the nature of merchants.
594
00:39:17,600 --> 00:39:20,920
And you, Xie Yufei, are a master among them.
595
00:39:20,960 --> 00:39:23,560
No matter how solemnly
he swore to you in the past,
596
00:39:24,600 --> 00:39:27,800
none of that matters to me anymore.
597
00:39:29,200 --> 00:39:31,040
What matters is this!
598
00:39:36,200 --> 00:39:38,200
[Divorce Letter]
599
00:39:38,200 --> 00:39:39,000
Accept it.
600
00:39:39,560 --> 00:39:44,840
From today onward,
you and Xia Xun have no further connection.
601
00:39:48,080 --> 00:39:50,200
Don't say that I am heartless.
602
00:39:50,360 --> 00:39:51,600
There is still a path forward for you.
603
00:39:52,520 --> 00:39:54,720
Ji Gang is currently rising in power,
604
00:39:55,040 --> 00:39:56,440
with a bright future ahead.
605
00:39:56,720 --> 00:40:00,040
Although being the wife
of Imperial Guard Commander
606
00:40:00,240 --> 00:40:02,440
may not sound as prestigious.
607
00:40:03,600 --> 00:40:06,000
But you are now a discarded woman.
608
00:40:06,600 --> 00:40:09,280
Someone is still willing to
welcome you as his lawful wife.
609
00:40:09,400 --> 00:40:11,280
You should be profoundly grateful for it.
610
00:40:14,040 --> 00:40:18,040
Prepare well. On the day of your remarriage,
611
00:40:18,280 --> 00:40:22,320
I, the Princess, will personally come
to offer my congratulations.

their affection runs deep,
their kindness and loyalty profound.

For any union of man and wife,
619
00:40:48,080 --> 00:40:51,880
It is forged by karmic ties
across three past lives.
620
00:40:52,840 --> 00:40:55,400
Now, our hearts are divided,
and our wills can no longer be one,
621
00:40:56,000 --> 00:40:58,200
Thus we seek to part,
each to return to their own path.
622
00:40:59,560 --> 00:41:02,040
May all grudges be untangled.
Let us bear no more ill will toward each other.

No, you're not wrong.

00:41:40,080 --> 00:41:41,280
Please pass down the order.

Bulwark Duke, responding to Madam Xie's request,
has already signed the letter of divorce.

From today onward,

Madam Xie is no longer your Bulwark Duchess.

This... this... how... how could this be?
640
00:41:52,600 --> 00:41:56,280
Madam Xie is far-sighted and deeply strategic.

Even I have to admit my admiration.

will soon have joyous news.

of the former Bulwark Duchess.

That way, I can ask for an imperial decree
to bestow the marriage.

her hidden grief? ♫
