1
00:00:56,320 --> 00:01:02,720
(Shadow Lord)

2
00:01:08,010 --> 00:01:09,368
I, Shen Xiao,

3
00:01:09,946 --> 00:01:11,321
I hope His Majesty is always healthy.

4
00:01:11,954 --> 00:01:13,168
I'm fine.

5
00:01:13,634 --> 00:01:14,928
Get up and sit down.

6
00:01:15,561 --> 00:01:16,961
Thank you for Your Majesty's grace.

7
00:01:17,753 --> 00:01:18,967
Let the banquet begin.

8
00:01:26,522 --> 00:01:28,335
- Come on. - Cheers.

9
00:01:34,682 --> 00:01:37,280
I would never recommend someone so shameless.

10
00:01:38,642 --> 00:01:41,602
If you are willing to serve the nobles, why bother taking the imperial examination?

11
00:01:42,402 --> 00:01:44,815
You should feel comfortable being a slut.

12
00:01:46,402 --> 00:01:47,616
Your Honour.

13
00:01:50,362 --> 00:01:54,456
Just now, I heard His Majesty mention me outside the hall.

14
00:01:54,802 --> 00:01:56,176
With this simple wine,

15
00:01:56,482 --> 00:01:58,055
I offered my small token of thanks.

16
00:02:03,962 --> 00:02:05,440
Congratulations, Censor Shen.

17
00:02:05,601 --> 00:02:07,696
But this is just a thank you from Top Scholar.

18
00:02:07,841 --> 00:02:09,159
I feel like I don't deserve it.

19
00:02:09,242 --> 00:02:10,679
The princess I know

20
00:02:10,762 --> 00:02:13,416
will never feel guilty.

21
00:02:13,881 --> 00:02:15,296
Could it be His Majesty

22
00:02:15,561 --> 00:02:18,616
isn't congratulating me sincerely?

23
00:02:29,642 --> 00:02:30,977
The princess couldn't hold back her liquor.

24
00:02:31,001 --> 00:02:32,255
I'll drink for him.

25
00:02:39,402 --> 00:02:42,480
Best Scholar, when did you and the princess become so close?

26
00:02:51,161 --> 00:02:53,078
My relationship with His Majesty

27
00:02:53,192 --> 00:02:55,487
is not something I can explain in a few words.

28
00:02:55,914 --> 00:02:56,956
For example...

29
00:02:57,056 --> 00:03:00,511
Don't take the Best Scholar's joke seriously, Empress.

30
00:03:01,191 --> 00:03:02,263
Is that so?

31
00:03:02,344 --> 00:03:05,718
I'm drunk. Let me apologize to Father and go home.

32
00:03:14,401 --> 00:03:18,055
How could His Highness leave so quickly at such a grand banquet?

33
00:03:19,449 --> 00:03:20,663
How dare you!

34
00:03:21,881 --> 00:03:23,495
Doesn't Your Majesty know?

35
00:03:23,906 --> 00:03:25,302
that I, for example,

36
00:03:25,441 --> 00:03:27,358
always reply just a little?

37
00:03:27,441 --> 00:03:28,815
I came here today

38
00:03:28,962 --> 00:03:30,896
just to return the favor.

39
00:03:39,809 --> 00:03:41,240
May I report to His Majesty.

40
00:03:41,562 --> 00:03:42,856
I, Shen Xiao,

41
00:03:43,233 --> 00:03:46,168
wanted to impeach Princess Zhao Yang, Li Shu,

42
00:03:47,161 --> 00:03:49,760
as Supervisory Sensor.

43
00:03:56,929 --> 00:03:59,217
There has been a severe drought in Guanzhong for more than three months.

44
00:03:59,241 --> 00:04:00,418
The land was scorched for miles.

45
00:04:00,442 --> 00:04:01,962
Not a single grain was harvested.

46
00:04:06,082 --> 00:04:07,455
Refugees flooded the region.

47
00:04:07,882 --> 00:04:09,776
People are forced to trade their children for food.

48
00:04:12,499 --> 00:04:14,539
Now, disaster victims are coming to the capital.

49
00:04:14,801 --> 00:04:16,656
Grain traders raise prices.

50
00:04:17,241 --> 00:04:19,161
They became rich from the suffering of the nation.

51
00:04:23,762 --> 00:04:27,096
Meanwhile, Princess Zhao Yang parties every night.

52
00:04:27,209 --> 00:04:28,529
Its luxury knows no bounds.

53
00:04:28,681 --> 00:04:30,081
He ignores the suffering of the people.

54
00:04:30,161 --> 00:04:31,758
He has failed his people.

55
00:04:31,840 --> 00:04:33,494
He opposed royal benevolence.

56
00:04:40,082 --> 00:04:41,296
How dare you!

57
00:04:41,961 --> 00:04:44,534
Slandering the Princess. You must have a death wish.

58
00:04:49,537 --> 00:04:50,912
Is this true?

59
00:04:53,322 --> 00:04:54,536
That's right.

60
00:04:54,801 --> 00:04:56,078
I can guarantee it.

61
00:04:56,288 --> 00:04:57,928
- Zhao Yang is indeed... - Enough!

62
00:04:58,041 --> 00:05:00,455
The drought in Guanzhong has been discussed in court.

63
00:05:00,730 --> 00:05:01,926
But it's still not resolved.

64
00:05:02,073 --> 00:05:04,559
What exactly does your Ministry of Revenue do?

65
00:05:04,642 --> 00:05:07,202
Food aid has been distributed, but prices continue to skyrocket.

66
00:05:07,241 --> 00:05:09,481
I'm worried that someone is hoarding grain and raising prices.

67
00:05:09,562 --> 00:05:10,776
That doesn't make sense.

68
00:05:10,882 --> 00:05:14,096
I'm sure if we transport wheat from Jiangnan to the capital,

69
00:05:14,361 --> 00:05:16,616
there will be enough wheat and prices will be stable.

70
00:05:17,305 --> 00:05:19,022
Censor Shen was absolutely right.

71
00:05:19,161 --> 00:05:23,021
However, the channel connecting north and south is badly blocked.

72
00:05:23,102 --> 00:05:24,618
Needs immediate improvement from the Ministry.

73
00:05:24,642 --> 00:05:25,842
But the treasury is tight right now.

74
00:05:25,875 --> 00:05:27,161
Canal repairs require large costs and burden the community.

75
00:05:27,185 --> 00:05:29,946
How my Ministry spends funds is none of your business, Second Brother.

76
00:05:30,442 --> 00:05:32,255
The Yongtong Canal is very important for transportation.

77
00:05:32,801 --> 00:05:34,055
Its foundation lies in Peiyuan.

78
00:05:34,241 --> 00:05:35,457
This is a benefit for future generations.

79
00:05:35,481 --> 00:05:37,015
Only an eighth level official

80
00:05:37,392 --> 00:05:39,086
dare to comment on state affairs?

81
00:05:39,402 --> 00:05:40,616
That's arrogant.

82
00:05:41,681 --> 00:05:44,176
If he's an official, why doesn't he speak up?

83
00:05:45,649 --> 00:05:46,822
Second Brother, you defend him so much.

84
00:05:46,846 --> 00:05:49,420
Could it be that Shen Xiao spoke at your command?

85
00:05:50,681 --> 00:05:52,815
Big Brother, you refuse to talk about the real problem.

86
00:05:53,208 --> 00:05:54,783
All you do is drag other people in?

87
00:05:55,281 --> 00:05:56,895
Let us ask His Majesty to decide.

88
00:06:03,402 --> 00:06:04,616
Your Honour.

89
00:06:05,082 --> 00:06:07,577
Massive development might shake the nation's foundations.

90
00:06:07,601 --> 00:06:09,799
I think there are those who don't want their channels repaired,

91
00:06:09,962 --> 00:06:12,799
so they could hoard, speculate, and profit from the country's difficulties.

92
00:06:12,952 --> 00:06:14,166
Li Yan!

93
00:06:14,281 --> 00:06:15,560
What did you just say?

94
00:06:42,490 --> 00:06:44,224
That's so ridiculous.

95
00:06:44,393 --> 00:06:45,720
Enough!

96
00:06:51,361 --> 00:06:52,575
Crown Prince,

97
00:06:52,841 --> 00:06:55,976
I order you to make the Yongtong Canal navigable within three months.

98
00:06:56,442 --> 00:06:58,518
Main Commander Cui Jin Zhi of the Yulin Guards

99
00:06:58,617 --> 00:06:59,992
will send troops to help.

100
00:07:00,281 --> 00:07:01,479
If there is a delay,

101
00:07:01,562 --> 00:07:02,758
you will be punished severely.

102
00:07:02,841 --> 00:07:03,999
Three months?

103
00:07:04,082 --> 00:07:05,360
How could it be?

104
00:07:05,441 --> 00:07:07,680
Correct. What should we do?

105
00:07:07,841 --> 00:07:10,055
- I received the order. - I received the order.

106
00:07:24,962 --> 00:07:26,656
Zhao Yang's daughter, Li Shu.

107
00:07:28,002 --> 00:07:29,216
From today onwards,

108
00:07:29,402 --> 00:07:31,418
You will submit your territory's income to the treasurer.

109
00:07:31,442 --> 00:07:33,055
When the disaster subsides,

110
00:07:33,304 --> 00:07:34,600
we will discuss restoring it.

111
00:07:36,041 --> 00:07:37,641
Thank you, Your Majesty, for your grace.

112
00:07:37,841 --> 00:07:40,319
(Shen Xiao, impeachment is just a cover.)

113
00:07:40,425 --> 00:07:42,025
(Helping people is your real goal.)

114
00:07:42,072 --> 00:07:44,327
(You really didn't disappoint me.)

115
00:07:49,681 --> 00:07:52,120
That Shen fellow actually impeached His Majesty in court.

116
00:07:52,681 --> 00:07:54,078
He has courage.

117
00:07:54,200 --> 00:07:55,854
He didn't say anything wrong.

118
00:07:56,161 --> 00:07:57,537
But he doesn't know the real story.

119
00:07:57,561 --> 00:07:59,198
Thanks to his actions,

120
00:07:59,376 --> 00:08:01,191
I can explain many things to the Crown Prince.

121
00:08:01,561 --> 00:08:03,775
That's amazing.

122
00:08:05,176 --> 00:08:08,151
Brave Top Scholar.

123
00:08:08,441 --> 00:08:10,078
Since the exam started,

124
00:08:10,161 --> 00:08:13,319
he was the bravest of all the officials.

125
00:08:13,402 --> 00:08:14,958
He's totally my type.

126
00:08:15,041 --> 00:08:16,718
If you like him, just look for him.

127
00:08:16,834 --> 00:08:18,391
Why are you blocking my way?

128
00:08:18,472 --> 00:08:20,753
Obviously, I'm here to see you embarrass yourself.

129
00:08:24,041 --> 00:08:25,559
You want to see me embarrassed?

130
00:08:25,642 --> 00:08:27,375
Why stand here in the wind?

131
00:08:27,602 --> 00:08:30,096
Why not come and stay at my place for a few days?

132
00:08:31,201 --> 00:08:32,878
I will ask Cui Jin Zhi to accompany you.

133
00:08:32,992 --> 00:08:35,326
- You... - You can see it as much as you like.

134
00:08:36,362 --> 00:08:38,216
Stop using him to disgust me.

135
00:08:38,441 --> 00:08:39,480
If it weren't for you,

136
00:08:39,561 --> 00:08:41,818
the daughter of a lowly maid, who used dirty tricks back then,

137
00:08:41,842 --> 00:08:43,816
how can he be your husband?

138
00:08:44,154 --> 00:08:46,128
Cui Jin Zhi must be blind.

139
00:08:48,681 --> 00:08:49,718
After many years,

140
00:08:49,801 --> 00:08:51,360
you still don't understand.

141
00:08:51,498 --> 00:08:53,311
Look at your unlucky husband.

142
00:08:53,561 --> 00:08:55,880
You wore him out in just three years.

143
00:08:56,097 --> 00:08:58,173
Someone who was proud of Cui Jin Zhi

144
00:08:58,328 --> 00:09:01,472
will never marry a rude and brainless daughter like you.

145
00:09:01,602 --> 00:09:03,295
How dare you insult me?

146
00:09:04,081 --> 00:09:05,295
You...

147
00:09:08,512 --> 00:09:10,246
I did steal Cui Jin Zhi from you.

148
00:09:10,482 --> 00:09:12,456
But didn't you take revenge?

149
00:09:14,602 --> 00:09:16,295
On my wedding day,

150
00:09:16,907 --> 00:09:18,680
you told Cui Jin Zhi

151
00:09:19,842 --> 00:09:21,576
that's what I advised Dad

152
00:09:22,081 --> 00:09:24,775
to execute his disgraced father and brother.

153
00:09:25,482 --> 00:09:26,696
Right?

154
00:09:44,697 --> 00:09:46,112
You are the one who advised him.

155
00:09:46,642 --> 00:09:48,816
You told His Majesty to kill my father and brother.

156
00:09:52,642 --> 00:09:54,919
His Majesty wishes to investigate the defeat.

157
00:09:55,024 --> 00:09:56,799
Your father and brother are the commanders.

158
00:09:56,937 --> 00:09:58,350
Their crimes are unforgivable.

159
00:09:58,431 --> 00:09:59,964
If I don't agree with Your Majesty,

160
00:10:00,561 --> 00:10:02,375
even you will face his wrath.

161
00:10:02,929 --> 00:10:04,543
I did it to protect you.

162
00:10:05,264 --> 00:10:06,799
To protect me?

163
00:10:08,842 --> 00:10:10,056
Li Shu.

164
00:10:12,161 --> 00:10:13,856
Who do you think you are?

165
00:10:14,163 --> 00:10:17,480
You are just a lowly orphan who crawled out of the Cold Palace.

166
00:10:17,752 --> 00:10:19,680
I pity you and protect you.

167
00:10:19,842 --> 00:10:21,919
I even went against my family and chose you.

168
00:10:22,017 --> 00:10:23,871
And this is how you repay me?

169
00:10:28,482 --> 00:10:30,078
I really regret it.

170
00:10:30,161 --> 00:10:32,616
I regret saving you from the Cold Palace.

171
00:10:40,482 --> 00:10:41,816
From now on,

172
00:10:42,168 --> 00:10:44,462
you are just a wasted wife of the Cui family.

173
00:10:44,762 --> 00:10:46,576
We're done.

174
00:10:48,201 --> 00:10:49,399
Cui Jin Zhi actually thought

175
00:10:49,482 --> 00:10:52,295
that just a word from me can influence His Majesty's wishes?

176
00:10:53,105 --> 00:10:54,302
Very stupid.

177
00:10:54,402 --> 00:10:55,796
If you want me to get rid of it

178
00:10:55,876 --> 00:10:57,756
someone as clueless as he is to you, just say so.

179
00:10:57,842 --> 00:10:59,576
If you don't want it, neither do I.

180
00:10:59,873 --> 00:11:03,727
Don't forget, you are just the Crown Prince's lapdog.

181
00:11:08,081 --> 00:11:09,198
If you dare mess with me,

182
00:11:09,281 --> 00:11:11,015
let's see how he treats you.

183
00:11:17,842 --> 00:11:20,559
If he knew the princess and Cui Jin Zhi had divorced long ago,

184
00:11:20,652 --> 00:11:22,288
but His Majesty remained silent...

185
00:11:22,369 --> 00:11:24,183
Whether he knows it or not doesn't matter.

186
00:11:24,882 --> 00:11:26,856
He never liked Cui Jin Zhi anyway.

187
00:11:27,362 --> 00:11:28,895
He couldn't bear to lose to me.

188
00:11:30,201 --> 00:11:31,456
Let's prepare the horse.

189
00:11:32,161 --> 00:11:33,375
Yes.

190
00:11:36,642 --> 00:11:40,255
(So, the Princess and her husband never actually married.)

191
00:11:49,404 --> 00:11:50,840
Divorce papers?

192
00:11:54,001 --> 00:11:55,215
Cui Jin Zhi,

193
00:11:56,201 --> 00:11:59,375
do you still think I'm a lowly orphan from the Cold Palace?

194
00:12:02,842 --> 00:12:06,056
I, Princess Zhao Yang, was personally appointed by His Majesty.

195
00:12:06,818 --> 00:12:08,351
You want to divorce me?

196
00:12:09,482 --> 00:12:10,696
You are not worthy.

197
00:12:10,930 --> 00:12:12,730
If anyone gets divorced, I'm the one who divorces you.

198
00:12:14,083 --> 00:12:16,537
Now that you have lost your father and brother, you have no one to rely on.

199
00:12:16,561 --> 00:12:18,854
If you lose your title as empress too,

200
00:12:19,033 --> 00:12:20,711
how can you survive in the Cui family?

201
00:12:20,792 --> 00:12:24,301
Now you are the one who needs my status as a princess.

202
00:12:24,642 --> 00:12:26,096
From now on,

203
00:12:26,242 --> 00:12:28,415
it's all about the interests between you and me.

204
00:12:28,642 --> 00:12:30,057
Otherwise, we have nothing to do with each other.

205
00:12:30,081 --> 00:12:31,358
I will report this to Father.

206
00:12:31,441 --> 00:12:33,078
After that, we're done!

207
00:12:33,200 --> 00:12:34,414
Go out.

208
00:12:53,479 --> 00:12:56,079
It seems like your majesty and your empress have been separated for a long time.

209
00:12:58,528 --> 00:13:01,520
All that public affection is just for show.

210
00:13:02,362 --> 00:13:04,322
A man does not eavesdrop on personal matters.

211
00:13:04,561 --> 00:13:06,458
All the classics you studied are useless.

212
00:13:06,482 --> 00:13:09,856
I'd rather be a real villain than a fake guy.

213
00:13:10,441 --> 00:13:13,696
So, Your Majesty and Empress Cui

214
00:13:14,762 --> 00:13:16,696
Is it true that marriage is just a name?

215
00:13:19,921 --> 00:13:21,175
Censor Shen,

216
00:13:21,642 --> 00:13:24,560
why are you so interested in my relationship with the Empress?

217
00:13:31,362 --> 00:13:32,576
In my opinion,

218
00:13:32,842 --> 00:13:34,738
Cui family father and son relied too much on their own strength,

219
00:13:34,762 --> 00:13:35,912
they underestimate the enemy on the battlefield,

220
00:13:35,936 --> 00:13:37,776
and caused unnecessary deaths among the soldiers.

221
00:13:38,801 --> 00:13:40,015
Then,

222
00:13:42,762 --> 00:13:44,255
they were still as arrogant as ever.

223
00:13:44,375 --> 00:13:46,215
His Majesty should have sent a warning long ago.

224
00:13:46,441 --> 00:13:48,056
That's why he made this decision now.

225
00:13:48,441 --> 00:13:49,655
So, Your Majesty,

226
00:13:49,842 --> 00:13:51,056
what did you do wrong?

227
00:13:52,201 --> 00:13:54,696
If Empress Cui blames you for this,

228
00:13:55,441 --> 00:13:57,816
then you really should find someone better.

229
00:14:09,281 --> 00:14:11,456
Then, who should I choose?

230
00:14:12,281 --> 00:14:16,495
The arrogant top scholar who just denounced me in court,

231
00:14:18,081 --> 00:14:21,576
or the one who sold himself three months ago for status, Tan?

232
00:14:28,721 --> 00:14:31,078
Censor Shen, you've been eavesdropping long enough.

233
00:14:31,201 --> 00:14:33,216
I don't think you just happened to pass by by chance.

234
00:14:33,306 --> 00:14:34,520
Could it be that

235
00:14:36,041 --> 00:14:38,015
that you still can't forget me?

236
00:14:51,482 --> 00:14:52,696
Yes.

237
00:14:53,386 --> 00:14:54,600
So what?

238
00:15:20,233 --> 00:15:22,047
Looks like I'm not the only one

239
00:15:23,281 --> 00:15:24,895
who can't let go.

240
00:16:10,602 --> 00:16:12,520
Your Majesty, I...

241
00:17:10,528 --> 00:17:12,433
Mother...

242
00:17:13,819 --> 00:17:16,736
Mother...

243
00:17:25,074 --> 00:17:28,400
Mother, please don't leave me.

244
00:18:54,842 --> 00:18:56,442
Your Majesty, you really slept well.

245
00:18:57,842 --> 00:18:59,375
I just fell asleep

246
00:18:59,583 --> 00:19:01,436
because of you, Censor Shen.

247
00:19:08,681 --> 00:19:11,000
Zhao Yang swears to me,

248
00:19:11,201 --> 00:19:13,761
no one from a humble family will be honored this year.

249
00:19:13,802 --> 00:19:16,415
But now, there is a leading scholar, Shen Xiao.

250
00:19:17,441 --> 00:19:19,175
Where is Zhao Yang?

251
00:19:21,129 --> 00:19:22,903
Zhao Yang is not feeling well today.

252
00:19:23,241 --> 00:19:24,695
He goes to rest.

253
00:19:25,241 --> 00:19:27,816
Censor Shen, you openly accused me today.

254
00:19:28,282 --> 00:19:30,296
What a show.

255
00:19:30,681 --> 00:19:32,776
Shen Xiao had just entered the court.

256
00:19:32,905 --> 00:19:34,423
First, he toasted Zhao Yang,

257
00:19:34,538 --> 00:19:36,134
then suddenly accused him in court.

258
00:19:36,241 --> 00:19:38,001
You had me punished and stripped of my domain.

259
00:19:38,082 --> 00:19:39,759
You caught the emperor's attention,

260
00:19:39,842 --> 00:19:42,559
and earned a reputation as an honest and outspoken person,

261
00:19:42,642 --> 00:19:44,655
never be afraid to challenge those in power.

262
00:19:45,642 --> 00:19:48,695
I do want to repay His Majesty for looking down on me that day.

263
00:19:49,538 --> 00:19:51,752
So, I have to make this matter worthwhile.

264
00:19:52,441 --> 00:19:54,455
I have to make sure His Majesty pays attention to me,

265
00:19:56,018 --> 00:19:57,818
so the noble families wouldn't dare touch me.

266
00:19:58,201 --> 00:20:00,455
It also helped encourage His Majesty

267
00:20:00,642 --> 00:20:02,482
to order the reconstruction of the Yongtong Canal.

268
00:20:02,905 --> 00:20:04,785
Only in this way can the people of Guanzhong be saved.

269
00:20:04,833 --> 00:20:06,578
Just a lowly rank eight from a humble family

270
00:20:06,602 --> 00:20:08,118
dare to act so boldly.

271
00:20:08,201 --> 00:20:11,695
Maybe they knew each other before?

272
00:20:13,805 --> 00:20:17,199
Your Majesty, the urgent matter is repairing the Yongtong Canal.

273
00:20:17,284 --> 00:20:18,321
I know very well

274
00:20:18,402 --> 00:20:21,375
that Zhao Yang would never get involved with someone from a humble family.

275
00:20:31,201 --> 00:20:32,799
The Crown Prince looks down on the poor,

276
00:20:32,882 --> 00:20:35,519
if the line is not repaired within three months,

277
00:20:35,602 --> 00:20:37,078
he would lose His Majesty's favor.

278
00:20:37,159 --> 00:20:38,997
Yet you claim it's all for the people.

279
00:20:39,082 --> 00:20:43,640
Helping the people is right, but I also hope that the Crown Prince loses power.

280
00:20:44,201 --> 00:20:46,256
The Crown Prince ignores the lives of the people.

281
00:20:46,433 --> 00:20:47,550
He is not fit to rule.

282
00:20:47,681 --> 00:20:50,415
His Majesty was appointed to the throne by a noble family,

283
00:20:50,530 --> 00:20:53,846
but lately he had become wary of their power and had begun to suppress them.

284
00:20:53,977 --> 00:20:55,937
So the nobles again supported the Crown Prince.

285
00:20:56,042 --> 00:20:57,655
Of course, His Majesty is alert.

286
00:20:59,042 --> 00:21:00,559
I want Your Majesty to see it

287
00:21:00,642 --> 00:21:02,296
so that I can be useful to him.

288
00:21:03,842 --> 00:21:05,056
You are careless.

289
00:21:05,642 --> 00:21:07,842
Guessing the emperor's intentions was a capital offense.

290
00:21:08,161 --> 00:21:11,175
You will even use the relationship between the Crown Prince and the emperor.

291
00:21:11,570 --> 00:21:12,648
Aren't you afraid

292
00:21:12,729 --> 00:21:14,782
I'll spread the word about what you just said?

293
00:21:15,324 --> 00:21:17,204
You wouldn't do that, would you, Your Majesty?

294
00:21:17,426 --> 00:21:19,880
You protected my position as the eighth ranked sensor today.

295
00:21:20,153 --> 00:21:21,808
That means I'm still useful to you.

296
00:21:22,961 --> 00:21:24,761
Why not tell me directly, Your Majesty?

297
00:21:25,362 --> 00:21:27,296
What do you want me to do for you?

298
00:21:29,697 --> 00:21:33,230
I just want you to be my best man.

299
00:21:35,001 --> 00:21:36,496
Only male friends?

300
00:21:39,082 --> 00:21:41,415
So, how many friends like me do you have?

301
00:21:44,177 --> 00:21:47,495
You're his only undergraduate friend.

302
00:21:47,642 --> 00:21:49,959
Because you are the only one, I cherish you.

303
00:21:50,061 --> 00:21:51,578
You are not like the others.

304
00:21:51,659 --> 00:21:53,400
Now you are with Sensorat

305
00:21:53,481 --> 00:21:55,296
and worked under the Crown Prince.

306
00:21:55,562 --> 00:21:57,279
He won't kill you,

307
00:21:57,393 --> 00:21:59,206
but he will definitely teach you a lesson.

308
00:21:59,562 --> 00:22:00,776
If necessary,

309
00:22:01,345 --> 00:22:03,160
you can ask me for help.

310
00:22:03,335 --> 00:22:04,680
No need for that.

311
00:22:05,282 --> 00:22:07,096
You have many friends around you,

312
00:22:07,377 --> 00:22:08,949
so why care about me?

313
00:22:09,106 --> 00:22:10,600
Now I'm in court,

314
00:22:10,961 --> 00:22:12,776
I'm ready for anything.

315
00:22:13,241 --> 00:22:14,680
Since His Majesty

316
00:22:14,961 --> 00:22:16,576
won't be honest with me,

317
00:22:17,642 --> 00:22:20,695
Well then, I'll be on my way.

318
00:22:39,644 --> 00:22:41,498
What kind of incense do you use?

319
00:22:41,720 --> 00:22:43,160
The smell is really calming.

320
00:22:44,337 --> 00:22:45,870
My family is poor,

321
00:22:46,433 --> 00:22:47,728
so I never use incense.

322
00:22:47,920 --> 00:22:49,215
(That's weird.)

323
00:22:49,697 --> 00:22:53,032
(Could it be that there are men who naturally smell good?)

324
00:22:54,961 --> 00:22:56,296
So, Mr. Shen,

325
00:22:59,362 --> 00:23:01,375
will you share my bed every night from now on?
