Would you like to inspect the original subtitles? These are the user uploaded subtitles that are being translated:
1
00:00:43,000 --> 00:00:43,880
You are on duty today.
2
00:00:45,240 --> 00:00:46,430
I'll have dinner ready
3
00:00:46,672 --> 00:00:47,890
and wait for you to come home.
4
00:00:48,240 --> 00:00:49,240
That's thoughtful.
5
00:00:49,260 --> 00:00:51,070
But I made plans
with Ding Zhi and the others
6
00:00:51,070 --> 00:00:52,600
to hear the new songs at Yunshao House.
7
00:00:52,750 --> 00:00:53,520
But we...
8
00:00:53,790 --> 00:00:54,430
What about us?
9
00:00:58,280 --> 00:00:59,320
Things between us
10
00:00:59,840 --> 00:01:00,600
have changed.
11
00:01:02,200 --> 00:01:03,200
How have they changed?
12
00:01:08,144 --> 00:01:09,560
About what happened last night,
13
00:01:10,208 --> 00:01:11,632
I'll take responsibility.
14
00:01:15,680 --> 00:01:17,840
What happened between us
was by mutual consent.
15
00:01:17,840 --> 00:01:19,056
We both got what we wanted.
16
00:01:19,104 --> 00:01:20,200
If you take it seriously,
17
00:01:20,200 --> 00:01:21,552
you're the one who's mistaken.
18
00:01:24,560 --> 00:01:26,280
But we've already consummated...
19
00:01:26,656 --> 00:01:28,510
I will take responsibility
to the very end.
20
00:01:29,664 --> 00:01:31,008
For the rest of my life,
21
00:01:31,632 --> 00:01:32,710
there will only be you.
22
00:01:39,488 --> 00:01:41,950
I've spent my life wandering
through pleasure houses.
23
00:01:41,950 --> 00:01:42,950
Never once have I cared
24
00:01:42,950 --> 00:01:44,280
about preserving my chastity.
25
00:01:44,760 --> 00:01:46,430
Nor would I ever spend my life
26
00:01:46,430 --> 00:01:48,672
tied to one man over something
as trivial as virtue.
27
00:01:49,040 --> 00:01:51,000
It was just a brief encounter.
28
00:01:51,664 --> 00:01:52,976
Let's leave it at that.
29
00:03:46,096 --> 00:03:46,890
=Blossoms of Power=
30
00:03:46,896 --> 00:03:49,780
(Adapted from the novel, After My
Bloom, All Flowers Wither by Jin Huang)
31
00:03:49,860 --> 00:03:52,820
=Episode 25=
32
00:03:53,408 --> 00:03:55,232
I have learned that
Cui Jinbai and Bu Shulin
33
00:03:55,264 --> 00:03:57,400
spent the entire night drinking
at Yunshao House yesterday.
34
00:03:57,424 --> 00:03:58,580
They stayed in the same room.
35
00:03:58,590 --> 00:04:00,400
They didn't leave together
until this morning.
36
00:04:01,030 --> 00:04:02,750
Keep watching their movements.
37
00:04:03,424 --> 00:04:05,248
Find out the nature
of their relationship.
38
00:04:05,400 --> 00:04:06,560
If anything unusual comes up,
39
00:04:06,750 --> 00:04:08,080
report to me immediately.
40
00:04:08,560 --> 00:04:09,000
Yes.
41
00:04:41,800 --> 00:04:42,950
My Lord.
42
00:04:43,360 --> 00:04:44,830
You're investigating
43
00:04:45,160 --> 00:04:46,870
Young Master Bu and Vice Minister Cui?
44
00:04:47,800 --> 00:04:49,360
Rumors about
45
00:04:49,456 --> 00:04:51,560
those two have
been circulating for some time.
46
00:04:52,240 --> 00:04:53,510
But Cui Jinbai
47
00:04:53,510 --> 00:04:55,630
is well known
for his impeccable conduct.
48
00:04:56,430 --> 00:04:58,672
How could he become so close
49
00:04:58,800 --> 00:05:00,500
to a notorious playboy like Bu Shulin,
50
00:05:00,510 --> 00:05:02,310
and even move into his residence?
51
00:05:03,510 --> 00:05:05,390
I simply can't believe
52
00:05:06,630 --> 00:05:08,070
Vice Minister Cui
53
00:05:09,070 --> 00:05:10,800
would develop feelings
54
00:05:11,750 --> 00:05:13,040
for another man.
55
00:05:15,040 --> 00:05:16,720
That's hardly the only suspicious thing.
56
00:05:17,840 --> 00:05:20,480
The Crown Princess is known
for being aloof and reserved,
57
00:05:21,920 --> 00:05:23,680
yet she became close friends
58
00:05:23,680 --> 00:05:24,870
with that libertine Bu Shulin.
59
00:05:26,160 --> 00:05:28,310
Even the Crown Prince
allows the Crown Princess
60
00:05:28,400 --> 00:05:30,112
to associate so closely
with another man.
61
00:05:30,160 --> 00:05:32,270
Ever since Father intended for Bu Shulin
62
00:05:32,270 --> 00:05:34,240
to marry Princess Anling,
63
00:05:34,240 --> 00:05:36,160
he latched onto Cui Jinbai
64
00:05:36,240 --> 00:05:38,560
and single-handedly ruined the match.
65
00:05:39,360 --> 00:05:42,240
Bu Shulin is the only young master
of the Marquis of Shunan.
66
00:05:42,240 --> 00:05:43,680
Yet he's in no hurry to marry,
67
00:05:43,800 --> 00:05:45,830
and the Marquis
seems completely unconcerned.
68
00:05:46,800 --> 00:05:48,070
That makes no sense.
69
00:05:49,800 --> 00:05:50,920
My Lord,
70
00:05:52,600 --> 00:05:54,160
have you already formed a theory?
71
00:05:57,800 --> 00:05:59,000
What if
72
00:05:59,270 --> 00:06:00,950
Bu Shulin
73
00:06:02,000 --> 00:06:04,040
isn't actually a man?
74
00:06:06,240 --> 00:06:08,070
If Bu Shulin were a lady,
75
00:06:09,480 --> 00:06:11,310
then everything that seems so strange
76
00:06:11,830 --> 00:06:13,040
would make perfect sense.
77
00:06:26,240 --> 00:06:27,190
My Lady,
78
00:06:28,190 --> 00:06:29,480
you truly are perceptive.
79
00:06:29,920 --> 00:06:31,360
If that's really the case,
80
00:06:32,920 --> 00:06:35,430
once Bu Shulin's identity
as a lady is exposed,
81
00:06:36,624 --> 00:06:39,856
the Marquis of Shunan will surely be
charged with deceiving the Emperor.
82
00:06:40,190 --> 00:06:42,160
If you expose the Marquis of Shunan,
83
00:06:42,272 --> 00:06:45,184
you'll have the best chance
of taking command of the Shunan army.
84
00:06:48,870 --> 00:06:50,430
You think so highly of me.
85
00:06:50,950 --> 00:06:54,040
I am truly gratified.
86
00:06:55,600 --> 00:06:57,510
As your wife,
87
00:06:58,390 --> 00:07:00,270
it's only natural for me
to ease your burdens.
88
00:07:01,680 --> 00:07:05,120
I am willing to do anything
for Your Highness.
89
00:07:13,190 --> 00:07:13,920
My Lady,
90
00:07:15,310 --> 00:07:17,040
have you already come up with a plan?
91
00:07:18,600 --> 00:07:20,160
The best way
92
00:07:21,390 --> 00:07:23,160
is to have His Majesty
93
00:07:24,480 --> 00:07:26,120
arrange a marriage for Young Master Bu.
94
00:07:50,270 --> 00:07:53,190
What you said to Second Prince just now,
95
00:07:53,430 --> 00:07:55,240
could it be seen
as overstepping your place?
96
00:08:03,190 --> 00:08:05,800
I know I'm not blessed
with breathtaking beauty,
97
00:08:06,360 --> 00:08:08,600
nor do I come from a powerful family.
98
00:08:09,120 --> 00:08:11,800
Second Prince's heart
belongs to Shen Yingruo.
99
00:08:13,560 --> 00:08:14,920
I've never hoped
100
00:08:14,920 --> 00:08:17,830
to share some fleeting romance with him.
101
00:08:19,160 --> 00:08:20,680
Only in this way
102
00:08:22,390 --> 00:08:24,390
might I become
103
00:08:24,750 --> 00:08:26,190
someone he cannot do without.
104
00:08:31,120 --> 00:08:33,270
Greetings to Father and Grandmother.
105
00:08:33,840 --> 00:08:34,600
Rise.
106
00:08:35,790 --> 00:08:37,550
Father, Grandmother.
107
00:08:37,960 --> 00:08:39,910
I'm here with good news.
108
00:08:40,840 --> 00:08:42,440
Qingshu is expecting.
109
00:08:42,840 --> 00:08:43,790
- Good.
- Great.
110
00:08:44,440 --> 00:08:46,270
That is wonderful news indeed.
111
00:08:46,480 --> 00:08:50,320
If she gives birth
to the royal family's eldest grandson,
112
00:08:50,670 --> 00:08:52,910
that would truly be a blessing.
113
00:08:55,000 --> 00:08:56,000
Changmin,
114
00:08:56,720 --> 00:08:58,200
only after becoming a father
115
00:08:58,200 --> 00:09:00,960
will you understand
how difficult it is to raise a child.
116
00:09:02,000 --> 00:09:04,630
You should also start thinking about
your own future.
117
00:09:04,704 --> 00:09:06,432
Thank you for your guidance, Father.
118
00:09:06,910 --> 00:09:08,320
I have one more matter
119
00:09:08,630 --> 00:09:10,120
I'd like to discuss with you.
120
00:09:10,720 --> 00:09:11,840
Speak freely.
121
00:09:13,360 --> 00:09:14,910
I'd like to ask Father
122
00:09:14,910 --> 00:09:16,768
to arrange a marriage
for Young Master Bu.
123
00:09:21,000 --> 00:09:24,080
Has Young Master Bu
asked you to do this?
124
00:09:24,790 --> 00:09:25,670
Not at all.
125
00:09:26,750 --> 00:09:27,480
Recently,
126
00:09:27,550 --> 00:09:29,150
while reviewing cases at the Censorate,
127
00:09:29,550 --> 00:09:32,270
I found that nearly half the pending
cases involve Young Master Bu.
128
00:09:32,464 --> 00:09:34,720
Some were for trampling crops
while riding recklessly.
129
00:09:34,768 --> 00:09:36,790
Others for drinking
and violating the curfew.
130
00:09:36,816 --> 00:09:39,680
He even got into street fights
with the sons of noble families.
131
00:09:40,240 --> 00:09:41,270
I was thinking,
132
00:09:41,600 --> 00:09:42,360
why not
133
00:09:42,750 --> 00:09:44,910
find him a young lady
from a distinguished family?
134
00:09:45,480 --> 00:09:47,320
She could guide him with proper conduct
135
00:09:47,376 --> 00:09:49,136
and bring order to his household.
136
00:09:51,200 --> 00:09:53,390
The Crown Prince has arrived.
137
00:09:59,240 --> 00:10:01,840
Greetings to Father and Grandmother.
138
00:10:02,630 --> 00:10:03,960
Huayong, you're here.
139
00:10:03,960 --> 00:10:04,670
Rise.
140
00:10:05,910 --> 00:10:06,870
Huayong,
141
00:10:07,030 --> 00:10:07,960
your second brother
142
00:10:08,360 --> 00:10:10,840
has been worrying
about Bu Shulin's marriage.
143
00:10:16,208 --> 00:10:18,200
Changmin has always
been strict with himself,
144
00:10:18,256 --> 00:10:20,176
yet remarkably
considerate toward others.
145
00:10:20,360 --> 00:10:21,870
I agree with Second Brother.
146
00:10:23,150 --> 00:10:25,360
It wasn't until after I married
that I realized
147
00:10:25,550 --> 00:10:26,870
a man only truly matures
148
00:10:26,960 --> 00:10:28,120
once he has a family.
149
00:10:29,550 --> 00:10:30,550
Well said.
150
00:10:31,390 --> 00:10:34,870
The Marquis of Shunan has only one heir,
Young Master Bu.
151
00:10:35,120 --> 00:10:37,080
I've also been thinking
152
00:10:37,390 --> 00:10:39,600
it's time he married,
153
00:10:39,870 --> 00:10:42,150
so the Marquis' family line
may continue.
154
00:10:44,000 --> 00:10:45,200
How about this?
155
00:10:45,440 --> 00:10:47,960
Mother, I'll trouble you
with this matter.
156
00:10:48,270 --> 00:10:51,840
Choose a young lady from
a distinguished family to be his wife.
157
00:10:51,960 --> 00:10:52,848
What do you think?
158
00:10:53,480 --> 00:10:54,670
Rest assured.
159
00:10:55,080 --> 00:10:58,120
It's time we found him a virtuous wife
160
00:10:58,120 --> 00:11:00,120
to keep him in line.
161
00:11:02,096 --> 00:11:05,104
- Thank you, Father, Grandmother.
- Thank you, Father, Grandmother.
162
00:11:13,750 --> 00:11:15,960
Changmin already suspects
that Bu Shulin is a lady.
163
00:11:16,144 --> 00:11:18,320
He plans to expose it
through an arranged marriage.
164
00:11:20,360 --> 00:11:21,870
We must act before they do
165
00:11:22,240 --> 00:11:23,910
and find Lin a marriage.
166
00:11:24,510 --> 00:11:27,200
But finding a bride
who can conceal Lin's identity
167
00:11:27,510 --> 00:11:29,200
and never betray her
168
00:11:29,910 --> 00:11:31,000
is no easy task.
169
00:11:34,120 --> 00:11:34,670
Your Highness.
170
00:11:34,680 --> 00:11:36,790
An invitation has arrived
from Prince Ning's Mansion.
171
00:11:36,816 --> 00:11:39,072
It's for Fourteenth Prince's
seventh birthday banquet.
172
00:11:39,270 --> 00:11:41,510
Prince Ning has invited
Lady Song of Bright Deportment
173
00:11:41,630 --> 00:11:43,270
to host a banquet at his residence.
174
00:11:43,344 --> 00:11:45,328
Young Master Bu
is also among the guests.
175
00:11:48,060 --> 00:11:50,500
(Prince Ning's Mansion)
176
00:11:51,536 --> 00:11:54,304
- Greetings, Your Highnesses.
- Greetings, Your Highnesses.
177
00:12:10,360 --> 00:12:12,440
Let's go see the birds later.
178
00:12:12,960 --> 00:12:14,390
Be sure to come soon.
179
00:12:14,870 --> 00:12:15,320
All right.
180
00:12:15,550 --> 00:12:16,120
Let's go.
181
00:12:21,790 --> 00:12:22,510
Mother.
182
00:12:22,630 --> 00:12:24,540
(Xiao Changhong, Fourteenth Prince)
I want to feed the birds.
183
00:12:24,550 --> 00:12:25,720
(Xiao Changhong, Fourteenth Prince)
Changmin's residence
184
00:12:25,840 --> 00:12:27,510
(Xiao Changhong, Fourteenth Prince)
has many rare birds.
185
00:12:27,780 --> 00:12:29,420
(Lady Song of Bright Deportment)
All right.
186
00:12:29,456 --> 00:12:30,590
(Lady Song of Bright Deportment)
But you mustn't run around,
187
00:12:30,600 --> 00:12:31,630
(Lady Song of Bright Deportment)
or you might get hurt.
188
00:12:37,184 --> 00:12:38,910
Take Fourteenth Prince to see the birds.
189
00:12:38,910 --> 00:12:39,910
Watch over him carefully.
190
00:12:40,960 --> 00:12:41,480
Yes.
191
00:12:44,790 --> 00:12:46,790
Prince Ning. Princess Consort Ning.
192
00:12:47,320 --> 00:12:49,550
Thank you for holding
Changhong's birthday banquet.
193
00:12:49,910 --> 00:12:51,270
It's been arranged so grandly.
194
00:12:51,480 --> 00:12:52,390
I truly appreciate it.
195
00:12:52,630 --> 00:12:53,910
You're too kind, Lady Song.
196
00:12:54,440 --> 00:12:56,550
Changhong is the youngest of the princes
197
00:12:56,630 --> 00:12:57,840
and exceptionally bright.
198
00:12:58,390 --> 00:12:59,870
Not only is he dearly loved by Father,
199
00:13:00,750 --> 00:13:03,120
but all of us brothers
are fond of him as well.
200
00:13:03,910 --> 00:13:06,750
His birthday banquet
has always been held in the palace.
201
00:13:06,870 --> 00:13:09,024
This year, I thought
we'd do something different.
202
00:13:09,150 --> 00:13:10,510
If there's anything lacking,
203
00:13:10,608 --> 00:13:11,790
I hope you'll forgive us.
204
00:13:12,550 --> 00:13:13,670
Not at all.
205
00:13:14,510 --> 00:13:16,200
Changhong is delighted.
206
00:13:16,960 --> 00:13:17,840
This way, everyone.
207
00:13:36,200 --> 00:13:38,000
Your Highness, slow down.
208
00:13:38,560 --> 00:13:39,630
Slow down, Your Highness.
209
00:13:40,304 --> 00:13:41,744
- Changhong!
- Be careful!
210
00:13:42,270 --> 00:13:43,870
Changhong, you're here.
211
00:13:46,600 --> 00:13:48,790
Look! The birds are so beautiful.
212
00:13:49,600 --> 00:13:51,510
Look! It's eating.
213
00:13:56,480 --> 00:13:58,390
Miss, shall we go over there?
214
00:13:58,390 --> 00:13:59,000
Sure.
215
00:14:00,000 --> 00:14:00,600
Slow down.
216
00:14:01,960 --> 00:14:02,510
Be careful.
217
00:14:02,720 --> 00:14:04,000
Help!
218
00:14:04,000 --> 00:14:05,120
Fourteenth Prince
has fallen into the water!
219
00:14:05,120 --> 00:14:06,200
Help!
220
00:14:06,200 --> 00:14:06,910
Changhong!
221
00:14:07,000 --> 00:14:08,150
- Changhong!
- Help!
222
00:14:08,160 --> 00:14:09,510
Fourteenth Prince
has fallen into the water!
223
00:14:09,510 --> 00:14:10,360
Help!
224
00:14:15,520 --> 00:14:16,960
Your Highness, something has happened.
225
00:14:16,960 --> 00:14:18,990
Fourteenth Prince accidentally
fell into the water.
226
00:14:21,390 --> 00:14:22,550
How is he now?
227
00:14:22,550 --> 00:14:24,624
He's fine. Young Master Bu
has already rescued him.
228
00:14:27,480 --> 00:14:28,320
Prince Ning.
229
00:14:28,840 --> 00:14:29,840
What happened?
230
00:14:30,600 --> 00:14:32,840
Changhong accidentally
fell into the water.
231
00:14:33,200 --> 00:14:33,870
What?
232
00:14:34,750 --> 00:14:36,270
Don't panic, Lady Song.
233
00:14:36,270 --> 00:14:37,910
Fortunately, Young Master Bu was nearby.
234
00:14:37,910 --> 00:14:39,510
He has already rescued Changhong.
235
00:14:39,510 --> 00:14:41,260
The Imperial Physician
is examining him now.
236
00:14:41,270 --> 00:14:42,200
Take me there at once.
237
00:14:42,200 --> 00:14:42,790
Lead the way.
238
00:14:42,790 --> 00:14:43,200
Yes.
239
00:14:49,150 --> 00:14:49,960
Physician Zhou.
240
00:14:50,150 --> 00:14:51,240
Is Changhong all right?
241
00:14:51,790 --> 00:14:52,840
Your Highness,
242
00:14:53,080 --> 00:14:55,120
Fourteenth Prince only caught a chill.
243
00:14:55,200 --> 00:14:56,080
He's out of danger.
244
00:14:58,600 --> 00:15:00,080
Thank heavens.
245
00:15:00,320 --> 00:15:01,670
Changhong is fine.
246
00:15:02,016 --> 00:15:03,200
Where is Young Master Bu?
247
00:15:04,240 --> 00:15:05,440
It's all my fault.
248
00:15:05,520 --> 00:15:07,088
I was only thinking about Changhong.
249
00:15:07,790 --> 00:15:09,240
Where is Young Master Bu now?
250
00:15:09,250 --> 00:15:11,590
Young Master Bu is changing
in a side room at Wancui Garden.
251
00:15:12,360 --> 00:15:14,030
I hope he hasn't caught a chill either.
252
00:15:14,150 --> 00:15:14,870
Physician Zhou.
253
00:15:15,240 --> 00:15:16,390
Come with me to check on him.
254
00:15:16,630 --> 00:15:17,120
Yes.
255
00:15:21,390 --> 00:15:22,270
Young Master Bu.
256
00:15:22,600 --> 00:15:23,600
Are you in there?
257
00:15:27,840 --> 00:15:28,670
Young Master Bu.
258
00:15:28,960 --> 00:15:30,360
I've brought the Imperial Physician.
259
00:15:30,360 --> 00:15:31,270
Are you all right?
260
00:15:34,630 --> 00:15:36,120
Could something have happened?
261
00:15:44,390 --> 00:15:44,750
Quick.
262
00:15:44,910 --> 00:15:45,630
Get up.
263
00:15:48,910 --> 00:15:49,630
This...
264
00:15:57,328 --> 00:15:58,640
Young Master Bu, you...
265
00:15:59,750 --> 00:16:00,910
Please don't misunderstand.
266
00:16:01,270 --> 00:16:02,670
I was changing just now.
267
00:16:02,800 --> 00:16:05,440
She insisted on barging in
and throwing herself into my arms.
268
00:16:05,440 --> 00:16:06,840
Isn't that Fifth Young Lady Yu,
269
00:16:07,150 --> 00:16:09,510
Second Prince's wife's younger cousin?
270
00:16:09,630 --> 00:16:11,790
Brother-in-law, I...
271
00:16:25,720 --> 00:16:26,790
Bu Shulin!
272
00:16:27,670 --> 00:16:28,440
Outrageous!
273
00:16:29,200 --> 00:16:30,600
This is absolutely outrageous!
274
00:16:31,270 --> 00:16:31,870
Your Majesty,
275
00:16:32,240 --> 00:16:33,600
I was framed.
276
00:16:33,960 --> 00:16:35,510
After I rescued Fourteenth Prince,
277
00:16:35,510 --> 00:16:37,520
I was taken to Wancui Garden
to change my clothes.
278
00:16:37,536 --> 00:16:38,480
But for some reason,
279
00:16:38,790 --> 00:16:41,240
I suddenly felt feverish
and my mind became clouded.
280
00:16:41,240 --> 00:16:43,030
Then Fifth Young Lady Yu burst in
281
00:16:43,030 --> 00:16:44,360
and insisted on sleeping with me.
282
00:16:44,688 --> 00:16:46,270
I fought with all my strength to resist,
283
00:16:46,510 --> 00:16:47,440
but unfortunately,
284
00:16:47,440 --> 00:16:48,750
my body would not obey me.
285
00:16:48,750 --> 00:16:49,870
She almost had her way.
286
00:16:50,120 --> 00:16:51,600
Fortunately, everyone arrived in time.
287
00:16:52,030 --> 00:16:52,750
Otherwise,
288
00:16:53,360 --> 00:16:55,200
I could never have cleared my name.
289
00:16:55,200 --> 00:16:55,910
Nonsense!
290
00:16:56,144 --> 00:16:57,720
You're highly skilled in martial arts.
291
00:16:57,960 --> 00:16:59,550
How could a mere weak lady
292
00:16:59,550 --> 00:17:01,550
strip off your clothes?
293
00:17:02,030 --> 00:17:02,750
Father,
294
00:17:03,200 --> 00:17:04,720
Young Master Bu is telling the truth.
295
00:17:05,240 --> 00:17:06,720
When Prince Ning forced the door open,
296
00:17:07,070 --> 00:17:09,240
I smelled
a strange fragrance in the room.
297
00:17:09,504 --> 00:17:11,480
It was the scent
of Three-Leaf Nine-Blade Herb.
298
00:17:12,550 --> 00:17:14,350
What does that
have to do with this matter?
299
00:17:14,550 --> 00:17:16,400
The scent of Three-Leaf Nine-Blade Herb
300
00:17:16,510 --> 00:17:18,110
can cloud one's mind and arouse desire.
301
00:17:18,440 --> 00:17:19,480
Come to think of it,
302
00:17:19,960 --> 00:17:20,880
Fifth Young Lady Yu
303
00:17:21,350 --> 00:17:22,680
is Changmin's sister-in-law.
304
00:17:27,590 --> 00:17:28,790
Your Highness,
305
00:17:29,510 --> 00:17:30,790
what exactly
306
00:17:31,110 --> 00:17:32,270
do you mean by that?
307
00:17:37,480 --> 00:17:38,590
If Fifth Young Lady Yu
308
00:17:38,590 --> 00:17:41,030
had consummated
the marriage with Bu Shulin,
309
00:17:41,510 --> 00:17:43,160
then you and Bu Shulin
310
00:17:43,240 --> 00:17:44,440
would have become family.
311
00:17:49,030 --> 00:17:50,030
Changmin,
312
00:17:51,550 --> 00:17:53,000
how do you explain this?
313
00:17:59,310 --> 00:17:59,960
Father,
314
00:18:00,510 --> 00:18:02,350
I never intended to use this
315
00:18:02,350 --> 00:18:04,304
to win over the Marquis
of Shunan's household.
316
00:18:05,680 --> 00:18:07,590
Please allow me some time.
317
00:18:07,590 --> 00:18:09,070
I will uncover the truth
318
00:18:09,070 --> 00:18:10,848
and give Young Master Bu an explanation.
319
00:18:11,720 --> 00:18:12,480
Very well.
320
00:18:13,270 --> 00:18:13,790
I
321
00:18:15,400 --> 00:18:17,720
allow you to prove your innocence.
322
00:18:18,200 --> 00:18:21,310
Work with the Chief Minister
and the Chief Justice
323
00:18:21,440 --> 00:18:22,880
to investigate this matter together.
324
00:18:23,070 --> 00:18:24,030
Thank you, Father.
325
00:18:27,100 --> 00:18:30,140
(Contemplating the Pine Breeze)
326
00:18:31,376 --> 00:18:32,590
Greetings, Young Master Bu.
327
00:19:15,110 --> 00:19:15,790
Remarkable.
328
00:19:16,000 --> 00:19:17,550
It's truly remarkable.
329
00:19:18,030 --> 00:19:18,960
Xihe,
330
00:19:18,960 --> 00:19:20,960
where did you find such a treasure?
331
00:19:22,270 --> 00:19:23,310
His name is Shen Shijiu.
332
00:19:23,328 --> 00:19:24,790
He serves in the Northwestern Army.
333
00:19:25,400 --> 00:19:26,790
When my brother came to the capital,
334
00:19:26,920 --> 00:19:28,550
I saw that his build and appearance
335
00:19:28,550 --> 00:19:29,880
were eighty percent like yours,
336
00:19:30,240 --> 00:19:31,590
so I kept him in the capital.
337
00:19:33,680 --> 00:19:35,400
But he looks exactly like me.
338
00:19:35,400 --> 00:19:36,992
I thought I was looking into a mirror.
339
00:19:37,240 --> 00:19:39,830
I asked Physician Xie
to use his bone-sculpting technique
340
00:19:39,904 --> 00:19:42,272
to alter his face,
from eighty percent resemblance
341
00:19:42,304 --> 00:19:43,160
to a perfect match.
342
00:19:43,510 --> 00:19:45,790
The Crown Prince
also used Tagara Incense
343
00:19:46,070 --> 00:19:47,830
to make his voice sound like yours.
344
00:19:48,720 --> 00:19:51,160
From now on,
Shen Shijiu will stay by your side
345
00:19:51,510 --> 00:19:53,790
to learn your way of speaking,
346
00:19:54,200 --> 00:19:55,790
your handwriting, and your mannerisms.
347
00:19:56,200 --> 00:19:58,200
If anyone ever tries to expose you,
348
00:19:58,400 --> 00:19:59,680
he'll prove useful.
349
00:20:00,440 --> 00:20:01,590
Thank you, Xihe,
350
00:20:01,720 --> 00:20:03,110
for thinking of everything.
351
00:20:06,440 --> 00:20:07,270
Shen Shijiu,
352
00:20:08,680 --> 00:20:10,070
you must study well.
353
00:20:10,680 --> 00:20:12,200
You must not make a single mistake.
354
00:20:12,480 --> 00:20:13,480
One careless slip,
355
00:20:13,640 --> 00:20:14,880
and it will mean utter ruin.
356
00:20:17,000 --> 00:20:17,440
Yes.
357
00:20:18,680 --> 00:20:19,480
You may leave.
358
00:20:28,110 --> 00:20:28,790
Lin,
359
00:20:29,640 --> 00:20:31,070
have you made up your mind
360
00:20:31,240 --> 00:20:32,310
about you and Cui Jinbai?
361
00:20:36,640 --> 00:20:37,400
Careful with it.
362
00:20:37,400 --> 00:20:42,300
(Marquis of Shunan's Manor)
363
00:20:57,040 --> 00:20:58,920
I've imposed on you these past few days.
364
00:20:59,750 --> 00:21:00,790
Today, I'll take my leave.
365
00:21:04,240 --> 00:21:05,440
You're too polite.
366
00:21:06,000 --> 00:21:07,680
You'll always be welcome here.
367
00:21:07,830 --> 00:21:08,720
Vice Minister Cui,
368
00:21:08,752 --> 00:21:10,070
you're welcome back anytime.
369
00:21:10,590 --> 00:21:12,350
For a drink or a song.
370
00:21:18,750 --> 00:21:19,880
Thank you for taking me in.
371
00:22:15,620 --> 00:22:20,380
(Marquis of Shunan's Manor)
372
00:22:28,620 --> 00:22:31,900
(Court of Judicial Review)
373
00:22:34,160 --> 00:22:35,960
Please see the truth, Vice Minister Cui.
374
00:22:36,270 --> 00:22:38,830
I have never admired Young Master Bu,
375
00:22:39,350 --> 00:22:42,030
nor did I ever use
an aphrodisiac against him.
376
00:22:42,480 --> 00:22:45,510
That day, I was drugged as well
377
00:22:46,030 --> 00:22:47,270
and lost consciousness.
378
00:22:47,510 --> 00:22:49,440
When I awoke,
I was already in that room.
379
00:22:49,830 --> 00:22:51,880
Please uncover the truth,
Vice Minister Cui,
380
00:22:51,880 --> 00:22:53,590
and clear my name.
381
00:22:54,790 --> 00:22:55,590
Fifth Sister,
382
00:22:56,480 --> 00:22:58,310
your elder sister is my wife.
383
00:22:59,200 --> 00:23:01,510
I've always treated you
as my own sister.
384
00:23:02,160 --> 00:23:03,400
But in this matter,
385
00:23:04,160 --> 00:23:05,480
the evidence is conclusive.
386
00:23:05,920 --> 00:23:07,550
Only by confessing truthfully
387
00:23:08,200 --> 00:23:09,480
can Vice Minister Cui
388
00:23:09,920 --> 00:23:11,270
show leniency.
389
00:23:11,590 --> 00:23:12,680
Fifth Young Lady Yu,
390
00:23:13,424 --> 00:23:14,790
after learning that my residence
391
00:23:14,790 --> 00:23:16,960
would be hosting Fourteenth Prince's
birthday banquet,
392
00:23:17,640 --> 00:23:20,310
you begged me repeatedly
to let you enter the manor,
393
00:23:20,720 --> 00:23:22,920
just to catch a glimpse
of Young Master Bu from afar.
394
00:23:23,270 --> 00:23:24,270
It's my fault as well.
395
00:23:25,160 --> 00:23:26,270
I softened for a moment
396
00:23:26,320 --> 00:23:27,480
and agreed to your request.
397
00:23:27,830 --> 00:23:28,960
Nonsense!
398
00:23:29,160 --> 00:23:32,110
When did I ever tell you
I admired Young Master Bu?
399
00:23:32,680 --> 00:23:35,200
You were the one who invited me
to the birthday banquet.
400
00:23:35,264 --> 00:23:37,200
I only accepted
out of respect for Second Prince.
401
00:23:37,200 --> 00:23:38,960
I couldn't very well refuse.
402
00:23:53,680 --> 00:23:54,590
Vice Minister Cui,
403
00:23:55,270 --> 00:23:57,000
every word I've said is the truth.
404
00:23:57,160 --> 00:23:58,640
I haven't uttered a single lie.
405
00:23:59,550 --> 00:24:02,680
Please see the truth, Vice Minister Cui.
406
00:24:03,000 --> 00:24:04,550
Did you find any other clues
407
00:24:04,550 --> 00:24:05,720
in Fifth Lady Yu's room?
408
00:24:06,992 --> 00:24:08,416
Reporting to you, My Lord,
409
00:24:08,480 --> 00:24:10,928
we found a box of incense made
from Three-Leaf Nine-Blade Herb
410
00:24:11,070 --> 00:24:13,830
hidden in a secret compartment
in Fifth Young Lady Yu's bedroom.
411
00:24:14,310 --> 00:24:16,070
We also found
a portrait of Young Master Bu.
412
00:24:17,160 --> 00:24:18,310
The incense?
413
00:24:19,590 --> 00:24:20,480
The portrait?
414
00:24:22,440 --> 00:24:24,440
How could these be in my room?
415
00:24:28,000 --> 00:24:29,200
It was you!
416
00:24:30,270 --> 00:24:31,960
You framed me!
417
00:24:31,960 --> 00:24:32,400
You...
418
00:24:33,830 --> 00:24:35,510
Have you lost your mind?
419
00:24:35,880 --> 00:24:37,240
You've gone completely mad.
420
00:24:37,240 --> 00:24:38,480
Don't touch me!
421
00:24:39,750 --> 00:24:41,240
Now that it's come to this,
422
00:24:42,680 --> 00:24:45,270
my parents have cast me aside
like a worthless rag.
423
00:24:45,376 --> 00:24:47,110
They no longer care
whether I live or die.
424
00:24:47,720 --> 00:24:49,920
What more is there for me to say?
425
00:24:55,160 --> 00:24:55,880
Stop her!
426
00:24:59,270 --> 00:25:00,440
Have you lost your mind?
427
00:25:02,750 --> 00:25:05,680
I know you've come fully prepared today
428
00:25:05,920 --> 00:25:07,200
to frame me.
429
00:25:07,590 --> 00:25:09,310
Then I'll use my own life
430
00:25:09,310 --> 00:25:10,680
to prove my innocence.
431
00:25:11,240 --> 00:25:12,510
The wicked
432
00:25:13,400 --> 00:25:14,960
will meet a bad end.
433
00:25:56,310 --> 00:25:57,680
Princess Anling, please step aside.
434
00:25:59,240 --> 00:26:00,200
The path is so wide.
435
00:26:00,200 --> 00:26:01,790
Isn't there enough room for you to pass?
436
00:26:02,350 --> 00:26:03,070
How dare you!
437
00:26:03,830 --> 00:26:05,000
You dare block my way?
438
00:26:05,240 --> 00:26:06,790
Princess Consort Ning is pregnant.
439
00:26:06,790 --> 00:26:08,256
She isn't able to move about easily.
440
00:26:08,304 --> 00:26:09,872
Princess Anling, please step aside.
441
00:26:10,550 --> 00:26:11,880
She looks perfectly fine to me.
442
00:26:11,880 --> 00:26:13,130
What's inconvenient about her?
443
00:26:13,168 --> 00:26:13,632
Move aside.
444
00:26:15,240 --> 00:26:15,830
Princess!
445
00:26:16,200 --> 00:26:16,880
Princess!
446
00:26:18,880 --> 00:26:20,070
The Princess is bleeding!
447
00:26:20,510 --> 00:26:21,350
Gu Qingshu!
448
00:26:21,350 --> 00:26:23,088
How dare you let your maid injure me!
449
00:26:23,160 --> 00:26:24,200
What happened?
450
00:26:27,830 --> 00:26:28,550
Sister-in-law.
451
00:26:36,960 --> 00:26:38,240
You came at the perfect time.
452
00:26:38,320 --> 00:26:39,830
Princess Consort Ning has gone too far.
453
00:26:39,904 --> 00:26:41,408
I've never had any grievance with her.
454
00:26:41,410 --> 00:26:43,760
Yet the moment we met today,
she not only forced me to give way.
455
00:26:43,776 --> 00:26:45,376
She even let her maid shove me.
456
00:26:45,920 --> 00:26:47,070
Greetings, Crown Princess.
457
00:26:48,480 --> 00:26:49,720
You've misunderstood, Princess.
458
00:26:50,440 --> 00:26:52,590
There are bottomless lakes
on both sides.
459
00:26:52,768 --> 00:26:55,160
Ruyi feared the Princess
and I might bump into each other.
460
00:26:55,160 --> 00:26:56,700
She only wanted both sides to give way.
461
00:26:56,720 --> 00:26:58,320
So neither side would be inconvenienced.
462
00:26:58,330 --> 00:27:00,390
Who would've thought
the Princess would take offense,
463
00:27:00,400 --> 00:27:01,550
insist on pushing forward,
464
00:27:02,070 --> 00:27:03,240
and nearly run into me?
465
00:27:05,160 --> 00:27:06,440
Is what she says true?
466
00:27:09,480 --> 00:27:09,880
But...
467
00:27:10,350 --> 00:27:12,550
She clearly forced me to give way.
468
00:27:14,680 --> 00:27:16,200
Princess Anling was the one at fault.
469
00:27:16,304 --> 00:27:18,448
You should apologize
to Princess Consort Ning.
470
00:27:18,720 --> 00:27:19,240
I...
471
00:27:25,920 --> 00:27:27,270
I was too rash.
472
00:27:27,344 --> 00:27:29,104
Please forgive me, Second Sister-in-law.
473
00:27:29,240 --> 00:27:31,590
We're family. There's no need
to stand on ceremony.
474
00:27:31,720 --> 00:27:33,790
Please don't take it to heart, Princess.
475
00:27:33,880 --> 00:27:35,960
The Princess was indeed out of line.
476
00:27:36,720 --> 00:27:38,240
But Princess Consort Ning's maid
477
00:27:38,750 --> 00:27:39,920
showed no regard for rank.
478
00:27:40,680 --> 00:27:43,030
Those who serve
their masters should be loyal.
479
00:27:43,590 --> 00:27:45,960
But they mustn't see only
their own master.
480
00:27:47,830 --> 00:27:49,000
I was foolish.
481
00:27:49,000 --> 00:27:50,590
I never meant to offend the Princess.
482
00:27:50,590 --> 00:27:52,064
I beg Your Highness for forgiveness.
483
00:27:52,310 --> 00:27:53,000
Execute her.
484
00:27:53,000 --> 00:27:53,400
Yes.
485
00:27:56,680 --> 00:27:57,960
Spare me, Your Highness!
486
00:27:57,960 --> 00:27:59,400
Please spare me, Your Highness!
487
00:27:59,510 --> 00:28:00,880
Spare me, Your Highness!
488
00:28:01,070 --> 00:28:02,880
Princess Consort Ning, save me!
489
00:28:02,880 --> 00:28:03,510
Sister-in-law...
490
00:28:03,520 --> 00:28:04,700
Please spare me, Your Highness!
491
00:28:04,720 --> 00:28:06,768
It's getting late.
You should head back now.
492
00:28:08,240 --> 00:28:08,750
Yes.
493
00:28:09,110 --> 00:28:10,830
Mercy, Your Highness!
494
00:28:18,880 --> 00:28:19,590
Help!
495
00:28:21,000 --> 00:28:21,830
Save me!
496
00:28:22,960 --> 00:28:23,830
Princess Consort Ning.
497
00:28:41,030 --> 00:28:42,160
Thank you, Your Highness.
498
00:28:43,030 --> 00:28:43,790
Thank me?
499
00:28:46,550 --> 00:28:48,110
If not for Your Highness's reminder,
500
00:28:48,480 --> 00:28:49,480
I wouldn't have realized
501
00:28:49,480 --> 00:28:51,110
that keeping such a reckless servant
502
00:28:51,110 --> 00:28:52,000
by my side
503
00:28:52,270 --> 00:28:53,720
would bring endless trouble.
504
00:28:54,750 --> 00:28:56,200
Your Highness is far more farsighted
505
00:28:56,440 --> 00:28:57,720
than I could ever hope to be.
506
00:28:58,830 --> 00:29:00,240
A reckless servant?
507
00:29:02,070 --> 00:29:03,270
You're far too modest.
508
00:29:04,110 --> 00:29:05,400
Under your guidance,
509
00:29:06,110 --> 00:29:07,720
this servant became
510
00:29:08,160 --> 00:29:09,480
quite adept at harming others.
511
00:29:11,350 --> 00:29:13,920
I don't understand
what Your Highness is talking about.
512
00:29:14,270 --> 00:29:15,160
Still pretending?
513
00:29:16,480 --> 00:29:18,350
Shall I recount everything you've done,
514
00:29:18,680 --> 00:29:20,110
one by one?
515
00:29:21,750 --> 00:29:22,750
What have I done?
516
00:29:23,200 --> 00:29:24,510
I have no idea what you mean.
517
00:29:24,920 --> 00:29:25,550
Very well.
518
00:29:25,920 --> 00:29:27,110
Let me refresh your memory.
519
00:29:28,720 --> 00:29:30,350
To win the Empress Dowager's favor,
520
00:29:30,720 --> 00:29:32,310
you gained Hu Yingrao's trust.
521
00:29:32,750 --> 00:29:33,920
You used vervain
522
00:29:34,200 --> 00:29:35,640
to make her break out in a rash.
523
00:29:36,270 --> 00:29:37,790
Then you seized the chance to perform.
524
00:29:38,680 --> 00:29:39,960
You created
525
00:29:40,400 --> 00:29:42,240
a touching tale of two devoted sisters.
526
00:29:42,304 --> 00:29:44,820
Then you deliberately presented
the Empress Dowager with roses,
527
00:29:44,830 --> 00:29:46,270
keeping her awake at night.
528
00:29:46,440 --> 00:29:47,240
After that,
529
00:29:47,840 --> 00:29:49,880
you gave her a scented sachet
to help her sleep.
530
00:29:49,960 --> 00:29:52,110
What a perfectly staged performance.
531
00:29:53,310 --> 00:29:56,240
You ordered Young Master Wen
to assassinate Prince Ning.
532
00:29:56,960 --> 00:29:59,030
Hu Yingrao died saving Prince Ning.
533
00:29:59,680 --> 00:30:01,350
Even in death,
she paved the way for you,
534
00:30:01,840 --> 00:30:03,510
allowing you to climb step by step
535
00:30:03,510 --> 00:30:05,240
to the rank of imperial consort.
536
00:30:07,350 --> 00:30:09,350
You held Fourteenth Prince's
birthday banquet
537
00:30:09,790 --> 00:30:11,480
and set a trap for Young Master Bu.
538
00:30:12,030 --> 00:30:13,960
You drove Fifth Young Lady Yu
539
00:30:14,310 --> 00:30:15,590
to take her own life.
540
00:30:16,070 --> 00:30:17,550
Everyone connected to it
541
00:30:17,750 --> 00:30:19,160
was silenced by you.
542
00:30:19,350 --> 00:30:20,830
Yet you alone walked away unscathed.
543
00:30:21,790 --> 00:30:22,640
Gu Qingshu,
544
00:30:23,310 --> 00:30:24,550
everything you've done
545
00:30:24,790 --> 00:30:26,550
was made possible by this maid.
546
00:30:27,200 --> 00:30:28,350
Her death today
547
00:30:28,830 --> 00:30:30,310
is of her own making.
548
00:30:32,590 --> 00:30:34,750
I don't know
how I've offended Your Highness,
549
00:30:35,440 --> 00:30:37,880
for Your Highness
to judge me so harshly.
550
00:30:41,790 --> 00:30:42,920
You may deny it,
551
00:30:43,680 --> 00:30:44,640
but you should know
552
00:30:45,270 --> 00:30:46,880
everything you've done,
553
00:30:47,510 --> 00:30:49,270
once brought before His Majesty,
554
00:30:50,110 --> 00:30:51,750
will only lead to your own death.
555
00:30:55,200 --> 00:30:57,110
I know what Your Highness is capable of.
556
00:30:58,440 --> 00:30:59,640
But you'd better hurry,
557
00:31:01,110 --> 00:31:02,200
because
558
00:31:09,200 --> 00:31:12,000
I'll soon be the mother
of the dynasty's eldest grandson.
559
00:31:32,580 --> 00:31:36,340
(East Palace)
560
00:31:49,110 --> 00:31:50,830
Greetings, Crown Princess.
561
00:31:52,680 --> 00:31:53,830
No need for formalities.
562
00:31:54,176 --> 00:31:55,664
Please, have a seat.
563
00:31:58,350 --> 00:31:59,880
I've come unannounced today
564
00:32:00,070 --> 00:32:01,510
because there's a marriage
565
00:32:02,960 --> 00:32:04,880
I'd like to ask
Your Highness to arrange.
566
00:32:06,590 --> 00:32:08,880
I've loved the Crown Prince
for many years,
567
00:32:09,440 --> 00:32:10,550
but I also know
568
00:32:10,920 --> 00:32:12,110
the Crown Prince
569
00:32:12,350 --> 00:32:13,510
doesn't love me.
570
00:32:14,200 --> 00:32:15,160
I've come today
571
00:32:15,310 --> 00:32:17,400
not to pursue the Crown Prince,
572
00:32:17,720 --> 00:32:19,550
but to ask Your Highness
to arrange a match.
573
00:32:20,550 --> 00:32:22,200
I'm willing to marry Young Master Bu.
574
00:32:24,830 --> 00:32:26,110
I've long known
575
00:32:26,590 --> 00:32:27,590
Young Master Bu
576
00:32:28,160 --> 00:32:29,310
is a lady.
577
00:32:32,440 --> 00:32:33,720
When I was ten,
578
00:32:33,960 --> 00:32:35,480
I got lost at the Lantern Festival
579
00:32:35,920 --> 00:32:37,350
and was saved by Young Master Bu.
580
00:32:37,920 --> 00:32:39,880
We were in a private room then.
581
00:32:40,016 --> 00:32:41,880
Young Master Bu
thought I was unconscious,
582
00:32:41,880 --> 00:32:43,030
so she let down her guard.
583
00:32:43,232 --> 00:32:44,510
She took off her outer robe
584
00:32:45,070 --> 00:32:46,200
and let down her hair.
585
00:32:47,030 --> 00:32:48,400
Young Master Bu saved my life,
586
00:32:48,750 --> 00:32:50,920
so I've kept this secret
587
00:32:51,440 --> 00:32:53,550
and never told anyone.
588
00:32:56,350 --> 00:32:58,350
Since you already know
Young Master Bu's identity,
589
00:32:59,344 --> 00:33:00,880
why do you still wish to marry her?
590
00:33:01,200 --> 00:33:03,830
Yesterday, Prince Ning
went to see my aunt
591
00:33:04,270 --> 00:33:06,510
and asked her to find Young Master Bu
592
00:33:07,160 --> 00:33:10,240
a young lady with no parents
and no one to rely on.
593
00:33:10,830 --> 00:33:12,160
Quite a clever plan.
594
00:33:13,000 --> 00:33:14,000
With no one to rely on,
595
00:33:14,720 --> 00:33:16,510
she'd be easier for them to control,
596
00:33:17,200 --> 00:33:18,270
with nowhere to turn.
597
00:33:18,750 --> 00:33:19,590
I know
598
00:33:20,070 --> 00:33:22,110
Your Highness is close
to Young Master Bu
599
00:33:22,640 --> 00:33:24,200
and will surely protect her.
600
00:33:25,000 --> 00:33:26,000
Why not let me
601
00:33:26,790 --> 00:33:28,350
protect this secret?
602
00:33:29,310 --> 00:33:30,350
In this world,
603
00:33:30,790 --> 00:33:32,640
there's no one more suitable than I am.
604
00:33:34,000 --> 00:33:35,680
If you marry into Young Master's Manor,
605
00:33:36,550 --> 00:33:37,550
from this day on,
606
00:33:37,960 --> 00:33:39,720
wealth and honor will be yours.
607
00:33:39,888 --> 00:33:41,790
Young Master Bu
and the Marquis of Shunan
608
00:33:41,790 --> 00:33:43,552
will both be forever grateful to you.
609
00:33:44,030 --> 00:33:46,590
Your younger brother will also receive
the finest education.
610
00:33:47,200 --> 00:33:48,350
When he comes of age,
611
00:33:48,590 --> 00:33:51,160
Young Master Bu will pave
a bright future for him as well.
612
00:33:51,550 --> 00:33:53,110
But the price you'll have to pay
613
00:33:53,480 --> 00:33:56,030
is never being able to spend your life
with your true husband,
614
00:33:56,030 --> 00:33:58,400
sharing a lifelong, loving marriage.
615
00:33:59,110 --> 00:34:00,590
I want to protect Young Master Bu,
616
00:34:01,070 --> 00:34:03,160
but I don't want
to ruin someone else's life.
617
00:34:03,904 --> 00:34:06,200
Your wish to repay your debt
of gratitude is admirable,
618
00:34:06,790 --> 00:34:08,920
but you must think it through carefully.
619
00:34:09,510 --> 00:34:10,670
Don't act on impulse.
620
00:34:21,480 --> 00:34:22,840
After our conversation today,
621
00:34:23,550 --> 00:34:25,440
I truly admire Your Highness.
622
00:34:25,670 --> 00:34:26,960
I finally understand
623
00:34:27,360 --> 00:34:30,150
why the Crown Prince is devoted to you,
624
00:34:31,150 --> 00:34:33,280
and why the two of you
can stand side by side.
625
00:34:38,460 --> 00:34:41,700
(Clarity and Serenity)
626
00:34:53,550 --> 00:34:54,230
Your Highness,
627
00:34:55,110 --> 00:34:56,800
has your poison flared up again?
628
00:34:58,230 --> 00:34:59,840
Yunhuai has spared no effort.
629
00:35:02,070 --> 00:35:02,920
Don't worry.
630
00:35:09,590 --> 00:35:10,920
Tian Yuan told me
631
00:35:11,400 --> 00:35:12,590
the treatment
632
00:35:13,190 --> 00:35:14,110
is very painful.
633
00:35:16,280 --> 00:35:17,070
It's nothing.
634
00:35:18,550 --> 00:35:19,880
To me,
635
00:35:20,550 --> 00:35:21,550
it's nothing at all.
636
00:35:24,440 --> 00:35:26,000
Being able to see you for one more day
637
00:35:27,400 --> 00:35:28,480
is already a blessing.
638
00:37:19,136 --> 00:37:21,320
Ever since you added
the delicate qionghua blossoms,
639
00:37:21,630 --> 00:37:23,630
this medicine
has become much easier to take.
640
00:37:32,640 --> 00:37:35,040
The braided cord you asked for
on Chinese New Year's Eve.
641
00:37:41,800 --> 00:37:44,320
I wove mugwort and calamus into it.
642
00:37:44,670 --> 00:37:45,670
They say
643
00:37:45,712 --> 00:37:47,392
wearing a mugwort and calamus charm
644
00:37:47,710 --> 00:37:50,400
can ward off evil, avert misfortune,
and bring longevity.
645
00:37:54,440 --> 00:37:55,630
So this braided cord
646
00:37:56,880 --> 00:37:58,550
was specially made for me by you?
647
00:37:59,800 --> 00:38:01,070
It was specially made for you.
648
00:38:06,280 --> 00:38:08,880
May everything go smoothly for you.
649
00:38:09,120 --> 00:38:11,136
May illness and misfortune
be driven away.
650
00:38:11,728 --> 00:38:13,552
May you enjoy a long and healthy life.
651
00:38:47,670 --> 00:38:49,230
Is Your Highness feeling unwell again?
652
00:38:49,440 --> 00:38:51,590
Don't you think today's
fragrance is rather special?
653
00:38:52,070 --> 00:38:53,550
It has a cool and refreshing scent.
654
00:38:54,030 --> 00:38:55,030
Indeed.
655
00:38:58,920 --> 00:39:00,800
It's called Moonlit Cool Fragrance.
656
00:39:01,440 --> 00:39:03,550
Xihe blended it herself.
657
00:39:04,352 --> 00:39:06,710
Qionghua is also known
as the Beauty Beneath the Moon.
658
00:39:06,800 --> 00:39:08,768
That's why she named it
Moonlit Cool Fragrance.
659
00:39:09,000 --> 00:39:10,030
Xihe also said
660
00:39:10,030 --> 00:39:11,510
this fragrance is for me alone.
661
00:39:12,550 --> 00:39:13,510
She wants
662
00:39:13,920 --> 00:39:16,030
me to be surrounded by her scent.
663
00:39:19,920 --> 00:39:21,030
Your Highness,
664
00:39:21,030 --> 00:39:22,760
there's nothing
you won't say these days.
665
00:39:25,320 --> 00:39:26,288
I'll take my leave.
666
00:40:01,550 --> 00:40:02,760
Why does it smell so bloody?
667
00:40:04,800 --> 00:40:05,760
It's a pregnancy pulse.
668
00:40:05,840 --> 00:40:06,760
Since when?
669
00:40:06,880 --> 00:40:08,030
I've decided to marry.
670
00:40:08,030 --> 00:40:10,480
I'll find a lady who won't expose
my identity and marry her.
671
00:40:11,000 --> 00:40:11,880
This cup of tea
672
00:40:12,280 --> 00:40:13,710
is to sever all ties between us.
673
00:40:14,190 --> 00:40:16,110
Dispatch our most elite men
674
00:40:16,150 --> 00:40:17,510
