Would you like to inspect the original subtitles? These are the user uploaded subtitles that are being translated:
1
00:00:08,060 --> 00:00:13,460
Dongfang Shuo, you are no longer an
official at the imperial court
2
00:00:13,500 --> 00:00:16,900
You can go wherever you want
3
00:00:16,900 --> 00:00:18,620
But the problem is that His Majesty
has ordered me
4
00:00:19,060 --> 00:00:22,260
not to leave Chang'an, not even an inch
5
00:00:22,620 --> 00:00:23,980
That doesn't make sense!
6
00:00:25,980 --> 00:00:28,900
Then I'll go to the imperial palace right away to ask His Majesty for you
7
00:00:29,460 --> 00:00:32,020
Please no, Your Highness. Please don't do that
8
00:00:32,340 --> 00:00:32,980
Why?
9
00:00:33,740 --> 00:00:37,140
His Majesty is already suspicious of me
10
00:00:37,460 --> 00:00:40,020
If you go to ask him for me at this point
11
00:00:40,500 --> 00:00:42,540
it'll only exacerbate the situation
12
00:00:42,780 --> 00:00:43,780
This is not good
13
00:00:44,100 --> 00:00:46,940
for both Prince Jingchu and me
14
00:00:53,780 --> 00:00:54,500
Well…
15
00:00:56,700 --> 00:01:00,820
Then how about we leave in secret?
16
00:01:01,420 --> 00:01:03,140
Your Highness, this is even worse
17
00:01:03,380 --> 00:01:05,740
I will be a treacherous rebel in this case!
18
00:01:05,940 --> 00:01:09,340
Even Prince Jingchu will become a culprit for harboring a rebel
19
00:01:09,620 --> 00:01:11,340
He will be as sinful as I am
20
00:01:14,180 --> 00:01:16,620
Then, does a nice man like you
21
00:01:19,540 --> 00:01:20,580
have to die
22
00:01:21,460 --> 00:01:23,940
for nothing in seclusion?
23
00:01:26,180 --> 00:01:27,060
Your Highness
24
00:01:27,500 --> 00:01:30,100
since ancient times, numerous heroes
25
00:01:30,420 --> 00:01:33,300
have died unknown in seclusion
26
00:01:33,780 --> 00:01:35,300
The death of a nobody like me
27
00:01:36,500 --> 00:01:37,660
means nothing
28
00:01:37,900 --> 00:01:38,580
No way
29
00:01:41,460 --> 00:01:43,100
I will never let
30
00:01:44,420 --> 00:01:46,180
a good man like you
31
00:01:46,660 --> 00:01:49,020
die in vain here
32
00:01:54,420 --> 00:01:56,380
Sis…
33
00:01:58,340 --> 00:01:59,460
What's happening again?
34
00:01:59,940 --> 00:02:01,860
- Big… - Speak slowly
35
00:02:02,100 --> 00:02:03,220
Big news!
36
00:02:03,340 --> 00:02:06,380
Dongfang Shuo's having an affair in the woods in the suburbs again!
37
00:02:06,940 --> 00:02:09,460
Qiu Hu! Stop talking nonsense!
38
00:02:09,820 --> 00:02:11,660
Well, I'm not talking nonsense!
39
00:02:11,860 --> 00:02:12,820
I saw it with my own eyes
40
00:02:13,180 --> 00:02:15,260
If you don't believe me, you can go
and check it out
41
00:02:15,540 --> 00:02:17,700
Hey! Are you addicted to it?
42
00:02:17,700 --> 00:02:20,700
You've got yourself in trouble time
after time!
43
00:02:20,740 --> 00:02:21,940
Why haven't you learned from it?
44
00:02:23,340 --> 00:02:25,820
Dongfang Shuo is like a hairless phoenix, not even comparable to a rooster
45
00:02:26,540 --> 00:02:28,420
What kind of woman would
hit on him now?
46
00:02:29,180 --> 00:02:31,180
I know your ambition
47
00:02:32,060 --> 00:02:34,100
to achieve something great
48
00:02:34,580 --> 00:02:36,860
But please don't think of anything
you shouldn't
49
00:02:37,940 --> 00:02:39,420
Like me, for instance
50
00:02:39,460 --> 00:02:41,500
My complacency begot losses,
which I suffered a lot
51
00:02:41,540 --> 00:02:43,460
I can't regret it more
52
00:02:44,300 --> 00:02:45,620
Things
53
00:02:45,660 --> 00:02:48,460
are often screwed up because of greed
54
00:02:48,980 --> 00:02:49,780
True
55
00:02:50,660 --> 00:02:53,700
All because of the encouragement of ambitious schemers like Qiankunzi
56
00:02:53,980 --> 00:02:56,340
My father has warned my brother
several times
57
00:02:56,380 --> 00:02:58,340
Although he appeared to be compliant
58
00:02:58,380 --> 00:02:59,900
I could tell that
59
00:02:59,940 --> 00:03:02,460
he didn't take our father's words seriously
60
00:03:02,460 --> 00:03:04,820
This could be a capital offense
61
00:03:04,820 --> 00:03:05,940
Please keep him from doing
62
00:03:05,940 --> 00:03:07,900
something unbelievably terrible
63
00:03:07,940 --> 00:03:11,580
So that's also why I want to invite you
to Jingchu
64
00:03:11,580 --> 00:03:16,060
- Only you can convince
my brother. - Me?
65
00:03:18,260 --> 00:03:20,460
You overestimate me, Your Highness
66
00:03:20,700 --> 00:03:22,100
So you agree?
67
00:03:24,460 --> 00:03:25,020
No
68
00:03:27,980 --> 00:03:29,300
Then what if I'm the one
69
00:03:30,420 --> 00:03:31,780
who invites you to Jingchu instead of my brother?
70
00:03:32,260 --> 00:03:33,460
If you invite me there…
71
00:03:33,500 --> 00:03:35,260
If…
72
00:03:37,220 --> 00:03:38,820
Well…
73
00:03:41,100 --> 00:03:43,420
What do you mean? Do you
even not like me?
74
00:03:44,260 --> 00:03:46,740
No, I dare not. I'm just too humble
to enjoy this treatment
75
00:03:48,660 --> 00:03:52,220
I'm traumatized by the flirting
of beautiful women
76
00:03:53,380 --> 00:03:54,420
I used to spend a lot of time with them
77
00:03:54,980 --> 00:03:57,500
But none of them really liked me. They were just taking advantage of me
78
00:03:59,580 --> 00:04:00,380
So
79
00:04:00,820 --> 00:04:02,260
I'm a Princess. I never go back
on my word
80
00:04:04,780 --> 00:04:06,820
How dare you adulterers
have an affair here?
81
00:04:07,300 --> 00:04:07,860
Take this!
82
00:04:23,980 --> 00:04:25,540
Stop fighting! Or we'll be in trouble!
83
00:04:26,380 --> 00:04:26,940
Stop!
84
00:04:39,820 --> 00:04:41,580
What's that noise in the woods?
Go and take a look
85
00:04:42,100 --> 00:04:42,620
Yes, sir
86
00:04:46,060 --> 00:04:47,260
Do not get injured!
87
00:04:48,420 --> 00:04:49,180
Enough…
88
00:04:51,580 --> 00:04:52,860
Sir, it's a person in black with a mask
89
00:04:52,860 --> 00:04:54,740
fighting a girl in men's clothes
90
00:04:55,180 --> 00:04:56,020
- A person in black with a mask? - Yes
91
00:05:02,460 --> 00:05:04,980
It must be a bandit in the middle
of a holdup
92
00:05:06,860 --> 00:05:09,300
Exactly! Stretch your sword out! Do it!
93
00:05:09,820 --> 00:05:10,980
Watch your steps!
94
00:05:11,180 --> 00:05:13,700
Yes! Retreat for a better attack!
95
00:05:14,140 --> 00:05:15,940
Freeze! Catch them!
96
00:05:16,540 --> 00:05:18,380
You guys go over there! The rest of you
follow me. Get them!
97
00:05:22,700 --> 00:05:24,780
- Dongfang Shuo? - Mr. Zhang?
98
00:05:27,580 --> 00:05:28,340
What are you doing here?
99
00:05:30,020 --> 00:05:30,740
Nothing!
100
00:05:31,620 --> 00:05:32,860
I've been standing still here
101
00:05:33,260 --> 00:05:34,500
I didn't talk or move
102
00:05:35,580 --> 00:05:36,540
You didn't move?
103
00:05:37,780 --> 00:05:39,740
You jumped like you were gonna fly!
104
00:05:40,100 --> 00:05:41,900
Fly? Can I fly?
105
00:05:43,980 --> 00:05:45,460
- Who are those two guys? - I dunno!
106
00:05:46,300 --> 00:05:48,820
I was passing by there when I heard
someone yelling
107
00:05:48,860 --> 00:05:50,460
So I came to take a look
108
00:05:51,340 --> 00:05:52,140
Didn't you do the same thing?
109
00:05:52,500 --> 00:05:53,860
You rushed here to see what happened
110
00:05:53,900 --> 00:05:55,500
I'm asking you why
the two of them fought
111
00:05:57,260 --> 00:05:57,860
I'm not sure
112
00:05:58,780 --> 00:06:00,380
Maybe… Perhaps…
113
00:06:01,100 --> 00:06:02,900
I guess it was a jealous person
114
00:06:02,940 --> 00:06:04,460
running into another jealous guy
115
00:06:05,180 --> 00:06:05,820
Ridiculous!
116
00:06:06,700 --> 00:06:09,060
They're extraordinarily good at kung fu
117
00:06:09,100 --> 00:06:10,820
How could they fight because of jealousy?
118
00:06:11,260 --> 00:06:12,900
I have no idea, either
119
00:06:12,940 --> 00:06:14,460
But nowadays
120
00:06:14,500 --> 00:06:17,220
the more capable you are, the more jealous you get
121
00:06:18,020 --> 00:06:18,580
Sir!
122
00:06:20,740 --> 00:06:22,900
Sir, those two escaped.
We didn't get them
123
00:06:25,580 --> 00:06:27,340
- Let's go! - See you, Mr. Zhang
124
00:06:29,500 --> 00:06:30,020
Pardon?
125
00:06:31,180 --> 00:06:32,900
I said goodbye, Mr. Zhang
126
00:06:36,380 --> 00:06:37,220
Let's go!
127
00:06:44,860 --> 00:06:47,580
Your Highness, please at least
take some food
128
00:06:47,980 --> 00:06:50,420
You don't want to eat all the time.
That's not good
129
00:06:52,020 --> 00:06:53,700
I just can't eat anything
130
00:06:54,460 --> 00:06:55,100
Your Highness
131
00:06:56,020 --> 00:06:57,100
Take it away!
132
00:06:59,100 --> 00:07:01,660
His Majesty is here!
133
00:07:03,420 --> 00:07:05,260
Your Highness, His Majesty is here
134
00:07:11,740 --> 00:07:13,420
Zifu, see who's here
135
00:07:15,180 --> 00:07:16,700
Greetings, Your Highness
136
00:07:18,220 --> 00:07:20,580
Nan, when did you come here?
137
00:07:20,580 --> 00:07:22,180
I arrived yesterday
138
00:07:22,220 --> 00:07:24,700
I was greeting the Empress Dowager in the Spring Palace just now
139
00:07:24,740 --> 00:07:26,260
And then I came to meet you, Noble Lady
140
00:07:27,660 --> 00:07:30,100
You're still dressed as a man like you always do, Nan
141
00:07:30,140 --> 00:07:32,420
You look even more handsome than those young men
142
00:07:33,380 --> 00:07:34,940
You're flattering me, Your Highness
143
00:07:36,460 --> 00:07:37,540
Your Highness
144
00:07:37,580 --> 00:07:39,300
you look pale
145
00:07:39,340 --> 00:07:40,580
Do you feel under the weather?
146
00:07:42,660 --> 00:07:44,460
N-no
147
00:07:44,860 --> 00:07:46,420
Her Highness feels
nauseous and anorexic
148
00:07:46,460 --> 00:07:47,460
and keep throwing up
149
00:07:47,940 --> 00:07:50,140
- She hasn't eaten anything for two days. - Chunyan
150
00:07:54,340 --> 00:07:54,980
Zifu
151
00:07:56,340 --> 00:07:57,140
You…
152
00:07:57,740 --> 00:07:59,580
Are you pregnant again?
153
00:07:59,580 --> 00:08:00,820
Your Majesty!
154
00:08:00,820 --> 00:08:02,260
Hands off
155
00:08:02,300 --> 00:08:03,900
If you accidentally hurt the pregnant
Noble Lady
156
00:08:03,940 --> 00:08:06,060
how can you explain to the Empress Dowager?
157
00:08:07,620 --> 00:08:08,140
You are right
158
00:08:08,980 --> 00:08:10,780
Your Highness, come on. Let's sit down
159
00:08:14,100 --> 00:08:15,300
Take it slow
160
00:08:22,220 --> 00:08:24,220
When I was pregnant with my child
last time
161
00:08:24,260 --> 00:08:25,940
I felt nothing different
162
00:08:25,980 --> 00:08:28,100
But I didn't expect this time…
163
00:08:29,900 --> 00:08:31,580
But you can't refuse to eat all the time
164
00:08:32,140 --> 00:08:32,820
That's not right
165
00:08:33,860 --> 00:08:35,140
I feel bad, too
166
00:08:35,700 --> 00:08:37,380
But it turns my stomach
167
00:08:37,420 --> 00:08:38,580
when I see food
168
00:08:38,580 --> 00:08:40,820
No, you have to eat something
169
00:08:41,620 --> 00:08:43,020
But I can't
170
00:08:43,580 --> 00:08:44,260
It's okay
171
00:08:45,180 --> 00:08:46,780
Go and get my maidservant in
172
00:08:46,780 --> 00:08:47,300
Understood
173
00:08:55,380 --> 00:08:55,860
You may leave
174
00:08:58,740 --> 00:09:02,220
Your Highness, I made this
especially for you
175
00:09:02,500 --> 00:09:03,260
What is it?
176
00:09:05,020 --> 00:09:06,220
It's as gorgeous as white jade
177
00:09:06,860 --> 00:09:08,340
This is the tofu invented by my father
178
00:09:09,220 --> 00:09:11,220
I've heard that Uncle can make
179
00:09:11,260 --> 00:09:12,580
something really palatable
180
00:09:13,540 --> 00:09:15,100
So this is it
181
00:09:20,700 --> 00:09:21,460
How does it taste?
182
00:09:25,740 --> 00:09:26,300
It's so good
183
00:09:27,260 --> 00:09:27,980
So good
184
00:09:28,340 --> 00:09:30,740
What a pity that you can't stay
in Chang'an for too long
185
00:09:30,780 --> 00:09:33,580
I guess I can't enjoy this all the time
186
00:09:34,140 --> 00:09:35,980
It's easy if you want to eat tofu
187
00:09:36,020 --> 00:09:38,620
- You can turn to Dongfang Shuo.
- Dongfang Shuo?
188
00:09:38,940 --> 00:09:42,020
Yes! On his last trip to Jingchu
189
00:09:42,060 --> 00:09:43,580
he learned how to make this
190
00:09:43,940 --> 00:09:44,660
This time
191
00:09:44,700 --> 00:09:47,180
I've brought him the millstone and bittern
192
00:09:47,540 --> 00:09:50,500
Looks like Dongfang Shuo can never rest
193
00:09:51,580 --> 00:09:55,180
Even my Sister Liu Nan
is thinking about him
194
00:09:58,380 --> 00:10:01,740
So do you mean you have taught Dongfang Shuo how to make tofu?
195
00:10:03,100 --> 00:10:04,420
Yes, Your Majesty
196
00:10:07,220 --> 00:10:07,820
Well, then
197
00:10:08,580 --> 00:10:11,580
Did he make this bowl of tofu?
198
00:10:12,540 --> 00:10:16,140
Not this one. I made it today
199
00:10:16,140 --> 00:10:17,020
No
200
00:10:18,100 --> 00:10:19,540
it was made by Dongfang Shuo
201
00:10:20,060 --> 00:10:21,220
- Your Majesty. - Yi
202
00:10:22,420 --> 00:10:23,020
Yes, Your Majesty
203
00:10:23,380 --> 00:10:24,540
Pass on my decree
204
00:10:24,580 --> 00:10:28,740
Whoever improves Noble Lady's
appetite and health
205
00:10:28,780 --> 00:10:30,260
will be promoted by three ranks
if he's an official
206
00:10:30,460 --> 00:10:35,180
or be appointed as a 500-Bushel official
or above if he's a civilian
207
00:10:50,900 --> 00:10:52,860
Are you the Princess from Jingchu?
208
00:10:53,260 --> 00:10:55,660
How dare you be so rude
to our Princess?
209
00:10:56,140 --> 00:10:59,020
Wait, I'm just asking a question!
210
00:10:59,500 --> 00:11:02,660
What's wrong with that? Why are you so offensive?
211
00:11:03,180 --> 00:11:05,620
- And you're nowhere near as aggressive
as my wife! - You!
212
00:11:06,180 --> 00:11:06,900
Jian'er
213
00:11:09,180 --> 00:11:10,620
Who are you
214
00:11:11,020 --> 00:11:12,220
I am Dongfang Shuo's
215
00:11:12,820 --> 00:11:14,220
brother-in-law!
216
00:11:17,540 --> 00:11:19,660
So you are Mrs. Dongfang's brother
217
00:11:19,660 --> 00:11:21,980
What do you want with me?
218
00:11:22,020 --> 00:11:22,740
You?
219
00:11:23,660 --> 00:11:26,260
I have nothing to do with you.
I'm looking for the Princess
220
00:11:27,860 --> 00:11:30,020
I am the Princess of Jingchu
221
00:11:30,780 --> 00:11:32,380
What do you want? Just say it
222
00:11:33,340 --> 00:11:34,140
Well, this is the case
223
00:11:34,380 --> 00:11:37,620
My sister let me invite you to our house
to have a talk
224
00:11:40,020 --> 00:11:40,740
OK
225
00:11:41,780 --> 00:11:44,140
I was planning to visit Mrs. Dongfang
226
00:11:44,780 --> 00:11:46,380
You're just in time. Let's go
227
00:11:46,820 --> 00:11:48,500
Come on
228
00:11:48,500 --> 00:11:49,340
Please
229
00:12:20,340 --> 00:12:24,340
Master, the Prince of Jingchu's
trusted official, Qiankunzi
230
00:12:24,380 --> 00:12:25,100
requested to meet you
231
00:12:25,620 --> 00:12:26,340
Qiankunzi?
232
00:12:28,900 --> 00:12:31,020
Who is he to the Prince of Jingchu?
233
00:12:31,060 --> 00:12:33,020
He claimed to be one of
the Eight Steeds of Jingchu
234
00:12:33,540 --> 00:12:34,660
Eight Steeds of Jingchu…
235
00:12:36,980 --> 00:12:37,980
They are world-famous
236
00:12:38,940 --> 00:12:41,180
What does he want with me?
237
00:12:41,660 --> 00:12:42,380
I have no idea, Master
238
00:12:43,180 --> 00:12:45,260
I did ask him, but he insisted on
telling you in person
239
00:12:46,860 --> 00:12:47,700
Let him in and meet me
240
00:12:48,540 --> 00:12:49,220
Yes, Master
241
00:12:55,700 --> 00:12:56,660
Welcome, sir
242
00:12:57,580 --> 00:12:58,140
This way, please
243
00:13:04,060 --> 00:13:06,700
A pot of spring wine and a dish
of peanuts
244
00:13:07,060 --> 00:13:09,300
Got it, sir. Just a moment. I'll be right back
with your wine and dish
245
00:13:10,820 --> 00:13:11,700
What Feather Army?
246
00:13:12,540 --> 00:13:14,260
They're literally bandits and hooligans
247
00:13:16,460 --> 00:13:17,780
Have you heard of it?
248
00:13:18,380 --> 00:13:20,460
There's a Yuefu poem
249
00:13:20,500 --> 00:13:23,900
spreading through the streets of Chang'an
250
00:13:24,580 --> 00:13:26,420
I have already heard someone sing it
251
00:13:26,460 --> 00:13:29,980
"Feng Zidu, a lackey of the Huo
252
00:13:30,580 --> 00:13:34,860
used the General's influence to harass a foreign girl who sold alcohol."
253
00:13:35,380 --> 00:13:36,940
This Feng Zidu
254
00:13:36,980 --> 00:13:39,740
is no more than Huo Qubing's
subordinates
255
00:13:40,540 --> 00:13:42,980
That's why he's called the lackey
of the Huo
256
00:13:43,580 --> 00:13:47,340
Is it the head who flirted with a man's daughter?
257
00:13:47,780 --> 00:13:49,500
Who else could it be other than him?
258
00:13:54,420 --> 00:13:55,780
Sir, here are the wine
and dish you ordered
259
00:14:11,260 --> 00:14:11,860
Mr. Qiankun
260
00:14:12,780 --> 00:14:15,100
There is a saying that never accept
rewards we don't deserve
261
00:14:15,660 --> 00:14:17,220
So what do you want me to do,
Mr. Qiankun?
262
00:14:17,260 --> 00:14:19,020
I will help you
263
00:14:19,060 --> 00:14:21,660
so long as it's within my capacities
264
00:14:22,340 --> 00:14:23,340
Thank you, Defender-in-chief
265
00:14:24,420 --> 00:14:27,980
I have an important secret to report
to His Majesty
266
00:14:28,660 --> 00:14:31,060
I hope you can introduce me
to His Majesty
267
00:14:32,300 --> 00:14:35,300
Mr. Qiankun, you are an official
of another state
268
00:14:35,660 --> 00:14:39,460
You can only report it to the imperial court through your Prince
269
00:14:39,940 --> 00:14:43,940
According to the rules, you can't meet
His Majesty directly
270
00:14:44,060 --> 00:14:47,820
That's why I'd like to ask you for help,
Your Excellency
271
00:14:48,180 --> 00:14:48,940
What's the big deal?
272
00:14:49,860 --> 00:14:52,220
Can I hear it first?
273
00:14:55,620 --> 00:15:00,420
It's a matter of vital importance. I must
meet His Majesty in person
274
00:15:01,460 --> 00:15:02,100
Mr. Qiankun
275
00:15:03,340 --> 00:15:06,940
His Majesty has already offered me
a satisfying salary
276
00:15:08,740 --> 00:15:12,180
I don't need your money, Mr. Qiankun
277
00:15:12,580 --> 00:15:13,300
Your Excellency
278
00:15:13,940 --> 00:15:16,220
You are humiliating me
279
00:15:19,020 --> 00:15:21,780
I'm on a weighty mission
280
00:15:21,780 --> 00:15:24,100
in the capital this time
281
00:15:24,860 --> 00:15:26,420
Princess Liu Nan and I
282
00:15:26,420 --> 00:15:30,100
were ordered by Prince Liu Hao
of Jingchu
283
00:15:30,260 --> 00:15:32,980
to take Dongfang Shuo to Jingchu
as an official
284
00:15:34,980 --> 00:15:37,500
the Prince of Jingchu wants Dongfang Shuo to be his official?
285
00:15:37,900 --> 00:15:42,620
Dongfang Shuo has long been flirting with Princess Liu Nan secretly
286
00:15:43,300 --> 00:15:44,220
Let's go!
287
00:15:45,780 --> 00:15:48,540
- Let's go to the imperial palace
right away. - OK
288
00:15:49,860 --> 00:15:51,740
So, Mrs. Dongfang
you and Dongfang Shuo
289
00:15:51,780 --> 00:15:53,580
are childhood sweethearts to each other
290
00:15:54,220 --> 00:15:55,900
To be honest with you, Your Highness
291
00:15:55,940 --> 00:15:59,380
Dongfang Shuo had been sleeping in the same bed with me before he was 10
292
00:16:00,540 --> 00:16:02,420
He was so timid when he was a child
293
00:16:02,420 --> 00:16:05,580
If a cat meowed or a dog barked
in the middle of the night
294
00:16:05,620 --> 00:16:07,620
or if there was thunder or lightning
295
00:16:08,540 --> 00:16:10,540
he would squeeze into my arms
296
00:16:12,260 --> 00:16:14,820
So Dongfang Shuo made it this far
297
00:16:14,860 --> 00:16:17,700
- all thanks to you, Mrs. Dongfang.
- I'm flattered
298
00:16:18,980 --> 00:16:20,220
But in a nutshell
299
00:16:20,860 --> 00:16:24,620
be it a big deal or minor issue, without my permission
300
00:16:24,660 --> 00:16:27,180
Dongfang Shuo would never dare to
make decisions arbitrarily
301
00:16:28,060 --> 00:16:29,740
I heard that
302
00:16:29,780 --> 00:16:33,540
when His Majesty planned to let Princess Pingyang marry Dongfang Shuo
303
00:16:34,460 --> 00:16:36,340
he refused even if he was going
to be executed
304
00:16:37,380 --> 00:16:38,060
So
305
00:16:38,700 --> 00:16:42,780
those years, when Dongfang Shuo
was a successful celebrity
306
00:16:42,820 --> 00:16:44,740
quite a few people were coveting him
307
00:16:45,660 --> 00:16:47,900
But after they heard about what His Majesty did
308
00:16:47,940 --> 00:16:49,100
they all backed out
309
00:16:51,140 --> 00:16:52,300
Mrs. Dongfang
310
00:16:53,220 --> 00:16:55,180
since Dongfang Shuo is so obedient to you
311
00:16:55,220 --> 00:16:57,540
could you just do me a favor?
312
00:16:57,980 --> 00:16:59,380
What can I help you?
313
00:17:02,300 --> 00:17:04,940
Persuade Dongfang Shuo to be the
Prime Minister in Jingchu
314
00:17:06,220 --> 00:17:10,300
What? Dongfang Shuo is going to be
the Prime Minister in Jingchu?
315
00:17:10,420 --> 00:17:13,500
Dongfang Shuo has a special relationship
316
00:17:13,500 --> 00:17:15,300
with your cousin, Liu Nan
317
00:17:20,140 --> 00:17:23,500
Then what's Dongfang Shuo's answer?
Yes or no?
318
00:17:25,460 --> 00:17:26,420
He didn't agree in the end
319
00:17:27,220 --> 00:17:28,700
As far as I know
320
00:17:28,740 --> 00:17:33,860
Dongfang Shuo was afraid that his wife,
Qiu Gu, would misunderstand
321
00:17:35,300 --> 00:17:36,140
Misunderstand what?
322
00:17:36,780 --> 00:17:40,740
She might think he was having an affair
with Princess Liu Nan
323
00:17:46,300 --> 00:17:47,620
Dongfang Shuo won't go to Jingchu
324
00:17:49,580 --> 00:17:52,100
Otherwise, he would have gone there
long ago
325
00:17:53,540 --> 00:17:56,820
Your Majesty, Dongfang Shuo refused
to stay in Jingchu back then
326
00:17:57,580 --> 00:18:00,580
because he thought he'd have more chances at the imperial court
327
00:18:01,460 --> 00:18:03,140
But he is a humble civilian now
328
00:18:03,700 --> 00:18:07,460
living on fortune-telling on the street
329
00:18:08,020 --> 00:18:10,500
As proud as Dongfang Shuo is
330
00:18:10,540 --> 00:18:12,660
I'm sure he doesn't want to
be stuck here for long
331
00:18:13,100 --> 00:18:16,220
Just now, when I went to visit Defender-in-chief
332
00:18:16,260 --> 00:18:20,580
Princess Liu Nan had already gone to meet Qiu Gu at Dongfang Shuo's house
333
00:18:20,940 --> 00:18:25,300
Your Majesty, so long as Princess Liu Nan succeeds in convincing Qiu Gu
334
00:18:25,340 --> 00:18:27,340
Dongfang Shuo won't hesitate
335
00:18:27,380 --> 00:18:29,500
to turn to Prince Jingchu!
336
00:18:31,780 --> 00:18:33,380
Even if I say yes
337
00:18:33,420 --> 00:18:35,660
Dongfang Shuo wouldn't dare to make any reckless moves
338
00:18:36,940 --> 00:18:37,540
Why?
339
00:18:39,020 --> 00:18:40,540
The emperor has already ordered
Dongfang Shuo
340
00:18:40,580 --> 00:18:42,780
not to leave Chang'an
341
00:18:43,580 --> 00:18:45,860
Your Majesty, you are restricting
Dongfang Shuo's movement
342
00:18:45,900 --> 00:18:49,420
Do you plan to appoint him one day
in the future?
343
00:18:52,260 --> 00:18:53,900
I haven't had time to think about this yet
344
00:18:54,300 --> 00:18:57,460
Your Majesty, in my past two years
in Jingchu
345
00:18:57,500 --> 00:19:00,860
I've been well aware of Liu Hao's ambition
and hidden rebellion
346
00:19:01,380 --> 00:19:03,140
If he gets Dongfang Shuo's support
347
00:19:03,180 --> 00:19:05,180
that's simply boosting his strength
348
00:19:05,220 --> 00:19:08,340
- It's literally bad news to the
imperial court. - Shut up
349
00:19:09,780 --> 00:19:11,420
An official betrayed his commandery lord
350
00:19:11,420 --> 00:19:13,620
A minion accused his master
351
00:19:13,620 --> 00:19:15,060
Based on this alone
352
00:19:15,100 --> 00:19:17,100
I can just punish you for the crime
353
00:19:17,460 --> 00:19:18,620
of treason and betrayal!
354
00:19:19,460 --> 00:19:20,860
Please let me explain, Your Majesty
355
00:19:20,900 --> 00:19:24,300
Although I am serving the
Prince of Jingchu
356
00:19:24,340 --> 00:19:26,940
I'm still an official of the
Great Han Dynasty
357
00:19:26,940 --> 00:19:28,500
I hold the view that the way
of being an official
358
00:19:28,500 --> 00:19:31,620
is to put Your Majesty before the Prince
359
00:19:31,660 --> 00:19:34,700
I can't only think of the Prince with no regard for you, Your Majesty
360
00:19:38,980 --> 00:19:42,540
Your Majesty, feudal lords
are too powerful
361
00:19:42,580 --> 00:19:44,940
This is bad for the imperial court
362
00:19:47,860 --> 00:19:48,580
I have an idea
363
00:19:49,980 --> 00:19:53,100
I came to the capital this time
just to pitch it to you
364
00:19:55,580 --> 00:19:56,700
Then tell me about it
365
00:19:57,220 --> 00:19:58,260
My suggestion is
366
00:19:59,300 --> 00:20:01,340
fair distribution of resources
367
00:20:02,740 --> 00:20:04,500
Fair distribution of resources?
368
00:20:04,820 --> 00:20:07,740
Your Majesty, the main reason why the feudal lords can pose threats
369
00:20:07,780 --> 00:20:09,140
to the imperial court is that
370
00:20:09,180 --> 00:20:12,900
every emperor has to appoint a large number of his brothers as feudal lords
371
00:20:13,220 --> 00:20:15,340
In this case, a large area of land
has to be given away
372
00:20:15,380 --> 00:20:19,060
Therefore, the imperial court's territory is getting smaller and smaller
373
00:20:19,500 --> 00:20:22,260
while the feudal lords' land is increasing
374
00:20:22,740 --> 00:20:25,340
Your Majesty, if you can adopt my method
375
00:20:25,380 --> 00:20:28,940
and reduce the feudal lords' turf
376
00:20:28,980 --> 00:20:32,580
then they won't be a threat to the
imperial court anymore
377
00:20:33,820 --> 00:20:36,980
But how can you make it
378
00:20:37,020 --> 00:20:40,300
with the hereditary system of feudal lords
still existing?
379
00:20:40,300 --> 00:20:42,740
I think you can make an imperial edict
380
00:20:42,780 --> 00:20:44,220
If one feudal lord passes away
381
00:20:44,260 --> 00:20:45,460
his successor
382
00:20:45,500 --> 00:20:48,620
can only inherit half of his land
383
00:20:48,980 --> 00:20:50,500
The land is their resources
384
00:20:50,740 --> 00:20:52,340
What about the other half of the land?
385
00:20:52,380 --> 00:20:53,660
A feudal lord has other sons
386
00:20:53,700 --> 00:20:55,020
besides the Crown Prince
387
00:20:55,060 --> 00:20:57,660
The Emperor can evenly distribute
the other half of the land
388
00:20:57,700 --> 00:21:00,340
to his other sons
389
00:21:00,380 --> 00:21:01,780
This is called "fair distribution"
390
00:21:02,100 --> 00:21:04,700
Together, it's the fair distribution
of resources
391
00:21:05,180 --> 00:21:06,140
I see
392
00:21:08,140 --> 00:21:09,340
Then the third prince
393
00:21:09,380 --> 00:21:11,540
can only inherit half of the second prince's land
394
00:21:11,820 --> 00:21:15,180
The other half shall be divided equally
among his brothers
395
00:21:15,220 --> 00:21:16,940
If this continues from one generation to another
396
00:21:16,940 --> 00:21:21,940
- the feudal lords will become almost civilians. - Exactly
397
00:21:22,420 --> 00:21:25,180
This is a good idea
398
00:21:25,220 --> 00:21:29,940
- but will it be accepted by those
feudal lords? - Well
399
00:21:30,340 --> 00:21:32,740
If the prince with the right of succession
400
00:21:32,780 --> 00:21:34,220
doesn't accept it
401
00:21:34,260 --> 00:21:36,740
before you do anything
402
00:21:36,780 --> 00:21:40,060
his brothers will be the first to fight him
403
00:21:46,060 --> 00:21:47,460
- Qiankunzi. - Yes, Your Majesty
404
00:21:48,020 --> 00:21:49,780
Your idea of fair distribution of resources
405
00:21:49,780 --> 00:21:53,980
just coincides with what I had in my mind
the other day
406
00:21:54,020 --> 00:21:59,140
I'm flattered. I'm nowhere near as capable as you are, Your Majesty
407
00:22:00,940 --> 00:22:05,100
But it is not an easy thing for you
to think in line with me
408
00:22:06,700 --> 00:22:10,180
Would you like to work for
the imperial court?
409
00:22:11,220 --> 00:22:13,460
I can ask the Prince of Jingchu for you
410
00:22:13,980 --> 00:22:14,660
Your Majesty
411
00:22:15,180 --> 00:22:18,380
I'm pretty sure that Liu Hao will cause big trouble one day
412
00:22:19,020 --> 00:22:21,900
So I would like to stay in Jingchu
for the time being
413
00:22:21,940 --> 00:22:24,220
and secretly spy on their movements
for you, Your Majesty
414
00:22:24,620 --> 00:22:27,460
Once anything happens, I can be your spy
hiding among them
415
00:22:27,820 --> 00:22:29,660
and make a great contribution to you,
Your Majesty!
416
00:22:30,420 --> 00:22:31,260
Brilliant
417
00:22:32,220 --> 00:22:33,340
- Qiankunzi. - Yes, Your Majesty
418
00:22:33,780 --> 00:22:35,740
If you can make a great contribution to me
419
00:22:36,300 --> 00:22:38,580
I promise I will reward you properly
420
00:22:40,540 --> 00:22:41,260
Thank you, Your Majesty
421
00:22:42,140 --> 00:22:44,620
I guess Dongfang Shuo listens to you
on anything at home
422
00:22:46,060 --> 00:22:47,900
We've made an agreement
423
00:22:48,340 --> 00:22:50,580
He listens to me at home
424
00:22:51,300 --> 00:22:53,300
and I listen to him in public
425
00:22:54,100 --> 00:22:54,980
Go in!
426
00:22:56,660 --> 00:22:57,100
He's here
427
00:22:59,780 --> 00:23:00,940
Princess
428
00:23:02,180 --> 00:23:03,860
Greetings, Your Highness
429
00:23:04,180 --> 00:23:05,460
- Rise. - Thank you, Your Highness
430
00:23:08,020 --> 00:23:11,620
Qiu Gu, how could you do this?
431
00:23:11,820 --> 00:23:14,820
Her Highness is here. Why did you keep her in this smokey dirty kitchen
432
00:23:14,820 --> 00:23:18,100
instead of inviting her to the hall
and receiving her?
433
00:23:18,140 --> 00:23:20,300
Her Highness might choke here.
How could you do that?
434
00:23:20,860 --> 00:23:23,140
Dear, I didn't mean to be rude
435
00:23:23,180 --> 00:23:25,260
But Her Highness insisted on
following me here
436
00:23:26,100 --> 00:23:27,300
Yeah, I like it here
437
00:23:28,180 --> 00:23:30,700
Since it's Her Highness's idea
438
00:23:30,740 --> 00:23:33,660
I will spare you this time
439
00:23:34,580 --> 00:23:36,100
Dear, why did you come back
so early today?
440
00:23:36,940 --> 00:23:38,860
I closed the stall early as there
was no business
441
00:23:40,380 --> 00:23:41,500
In this case
442
00:23:41,780 --> 00:23:45,340
how about we stop doing that deceptive business?
443
00:23:47,140 --> 00:23:47,860
Watch your mouth
444
00:23:48,700 --> 00:23:49,820
You can't talk nonsense
445
00:23:49,860 --> 00:23:50,820
in front of the Princess
446
00:23:51,380 --> 00:23:52,540
Deceptive business?
447
00:23:53,180 --> 00:23:55,140
As a mighty grown man, how can I possibly do deceptive business?
448
00:23:55,900 --> 00:23:56,620
Sorry, I was wrong
449
00:23:56,620 --> 00:23:58,780
That's not a deceptive business,
but a job of guesses
450
00:23:59,780 --> 00:24:02,900
Qiu Gu, why are you talking
so much today?
451
00:24:03,300 --> 00:24:04,100
Speed up your work
452
00:24:04,140 --> 00:24:06,660
- I'm going to keep the Princess here
for dinner. - Indeed
453
00:24:06,660 --> 00:24:09,160
I've been waiting for you to come back
and give me money to buy rice
454
00:24:09,160 --> 00:24:10,060
Why didn't you say that earlier?
455
00:24:11,260 --> 00:24:12,020
Come on…
456
00:24:21,060 --> 00:24:22,700
Why are you laughing?
457
00:24:22,900 --> 00:24:24,660
I'm not laughing, really
458
00:24:26,740 --> 00:24:29,260
Dear, the Princess said
459
00:24:29,300 --> 00:24:31,780
you could quit
460
00:24:31,820 --> 00:24:33,500
doing the deceptive business
461
00:24:33,980 --> 00:24:35,420
According to what His Majesty implied
462
00:24:35,460 --> 00:24:38,740
Her Highness wants to teach you
a skill to earn your living
463
00:24:41,060 --> 00:24:41,540
What kind of skill
464
00:24:42,860 --> 00:24:43,620
Tofu-making
465
00:24:45,300 --> 00:24:46,420
Tofu?
466
00:24:50,740 --> 00:24:51,860
Jingchu tofu!
467
00:24:59,380 --> 00:25:00,380
Excuse me
468
00:25:00,620 --> 00:25:04,460
- Waiter! Speed up! Come on! - Yes!
469
00:25:05,380 --> 00:25:08,220
- Check out. - Thank you. Looking forward
to your next visit!
470
00:25:09,680 --> 00:25:10,320
LĂĽyu
471
00:25:11,380 --> 00:25:14,100
- Got it. - Waiter, hurry
472
00:25:17,460 --> 00:25:20,460
Well, we eat either tofu
473
00:25:20,500 --> 00:25:23,580
or cabbage
474
00:25:23,580 --> 00:25:25,700
every day
475
00:25:25,980 --> 00:25:28,060
How long has it been since we ate meat
last time?
476
00:25:28,940 --> 00:25:29,780
I've even lost weight!
477
00:25:30,420 --> 00:25:32,060
Brother, are you finished?
478
00:25:32,060 --> 00:25:35,620
Collet the firewood and take it in. Hurry
479
00:25:36,900 --> 00:25:39,540
Tell my sister to stew fatty meat tonight
480
00:25:46,260 --> 00:25:49,820
You two have finished eating, haven't you? Go… Quickly
481
00:25:50,860 --> 00:25:52,700
Waiter, clean this up for me
482
00:25:58,060 --> 00:25:58,820
Gorgeous tofu seller
483
00:25:59,220 --> 00:26:00,980
Come and serve our General Huo
484
00:26:05,860 --> 00:26:06,540
Not bad
485
00:26:06,700 --> 00:26:09,980
You must be one of those gorgeous tofu sellers
486
00:26:11,540 --> 00:26:13,300
What would you like to order, sir?
487
00:26:13,860 --> 00:26:17,380
General Huo wants to order you
to have a few drinks with him
488
00:26:17,900 --> 00:26:20,140
General will reward you with something
if he's happy
489
00:26:20,460 --> 00:26:22,620
and it'll be enough to last you many days
490
00:26:25,140 --> 00:26:26,580
Bitch, how dare you slap me?
491
00:26:27,420 --> 00:26:28,980
Do you want to die? How dare you
offend us?
492
00:26:32,100 --> 00:26:33,260
Who has got this audacity
493
00:26:34,860 --> 00:26:36,020
to hit my man?
494
00:26:40,380 --> 00:26:41,220
Stepmother?
495
00:26:43,180 --> 00:26:46,660
Well, it's you, Huo Qubing!
496
00:26:48,980 --> 00:26:50,780
If it were not my shop
497
00:26:51,820 --> 00:26:53,300
but someone else's
498
00:26:53,740 --> 00:26:55,900
you would have made a big mess, right?
499
00:26:57,780 --> 00:26:58,460
I know my fault
500
00:26:59,380 --> 00:27:01,460
I have had bad luck these years
501
00:27:02,100 --> 00:27:03,540
I'm too busy with my own affairs
502
00:27:04,500 --> 00:27:07,620
And your uncle, Wei Qing, is busy training soldiers all day long
503
00:27:08,340 --> 00:27:10,340
We don't have much time
to care about you
504
00:27:10,780 --> 00:27:13,100
We thought you had grown up
505
00:27:13,140 --> 00:27:14,340
as the Commander of the Feather Army
506
00:27:14,540 --> 00:27:16,260
so you would behave yourself
507
00:27:16,740 --> 00:27:17,620
But never did we expect you
508
00:27:18,300 --> 00:27:21,060
to do such a terrible thing!
509
00:27:21,780 --> 00:27:23,460
Look how you've led the Feather Army!
510
00:27:24,020 --> 00:27:25,180
Look at them!
511
00:27:28,060 --> 00:27:28,620
Let me ask you
512
00:27:29,780 --> 00:27:31,660
Do you have a subordinate named Feng Zidu?
513
00:27:32,260 --> 00:27:33,700
He's a military officer under my command
514
00:27:33,700 --> 00:27:35,100
Then have you ever heard of
515
00:27:35,140 --> 00:27:37,820
a Yuefu poem called Feather Man
516
00:27:37,860 --> 00:27:39,780
sung by everyone everywhere in Chang'an now?
517
00:27:40,020 --> 00:27:41,500
- No. - No?
518
00:27:42,140 --> 00:27:44,660
Then listen carefully with your ears!
519
00:27:45,260 --> 00:27:48,780
"Feng Zidu, a lackey of the Huo
520
00:27:48,820 --> 00:27:52,020
used the General's influence to harass a foreign girl who sold alcohol."
521
00:27:52,820 --> 00:27:54,620
Do you hear me?
522
00:27:55,020 --> 00:27:57,140
The people are denouncing
523
00:27:57,140 --> 00:28:00,100
Feng Zidu, the lackey working for you,
Huo Qubing!
524
00:28:00,740 --> 00:28:02,780
Backed by you, the Commander of the Feather Army
525
00:28:02,820 --> 00:28:06,380
he molested a foreign woman
selling alcohol on the street
526
00:28:06,820 --> 00:28:09,100
He even tore her clothes on the street!
527
00:28:10,020 --> 00:28:11,900
Please calm down, godfather. I really didn't know this
528
00:28:12,260 --> 00:28:14,500
I thought you didn't know it
529
00:28:15,780 --> 00:28:16,940
But given what happened today
530
00:28:17,580 --> 00:28:19,100
you not only knew it
531
00:28:19,540 --> 00:28:22,980
- but also led them to make trouble!
- Godfather
532
00:28:25,580 --> 00:28:27,100
Huo Qubing, Huo Qubing
533
00:28:27,300 --> 00:28:30,460
Do you know how that Jin Wuzi died?
534
00:28:31,340 --> 00:28:34,700
He sexually harassed a female singer in the restaurant and killed someone
535
00:28:35,020 --> 00:28:36,540
No! Not only that!
536
00:28:37,300 --> 00:28:37,780
Not only that?
537
00:28:38,220 --> 00:28:40,460
He thought he was an
imperial family member
538
00:28:40,500 --> 00:28:43,860
so he could be free to flirt with women
and kill people arrogantly!
539
00:28:44,780 --> 00:28:46,100
If you go on like this
540
00:28:46,140 --> 00:28:47,380
you will be no different from him!
541
00:28:48,660 --> 00:28:50,220
Do you think you can ignore the law
and act rampantly
542
00:28:50,260 --> 00:28:52,900
just because you're the Commander
of the Feather Army?
543
00:28:52,940 --> 00:28:54,860
What an ignorant brat you are!
544
00:28:56,660 --> 00:28:58,020
- Godfather. - Don't call me that again!
545
00:29:02,540 --> 00:29:03,420
Qubing!
546
00:29:05,300 --> 00:29:07,060
If you go on like this, one day
547
00:29:07,420 --> 00:29:10,540
you will end up like that Jin Wuzi!
548
00:29:14,460 --> 00:29:18,020
All right, you go to the imperial palace to meet Consort Wei right away
549
00:29:18,940 --> 00:29:19,780
Ask her to let His Majesty
550
00:29:20,100 --> 00:29:22,500
remove you from the post of Commander
of the Feather Army for now
551
00:29:24,780 --> 00:29:26,940
You shall go to the Grand Academy
552
00:29:27,220 --> 00:29:30,260
to study for two years!
553
00:29:35,140 --> 00:29:35,860
Make way!
554
00:29:39,260 --> 00:29:39,860
Godfather
555
00:29:41,820 --> 00:29:42,620
Let me do it
556
00:29:49,460 --> 00:29:50,180
Be careful
557
00:29:59,980 --> 00:30:02,220
Come on. Caught it on the first try!
558
00:30:05,860 --> 00:30:06,460
Zifu
559
00:30:07,180 --> 00:30:09,220
you should have a good rest
560
00:30:09,260 --> 00:30:11,740
and give birth to more sons
561
00:30:11,780 --> 00:30:14,780
for His Majesty and me
562
00:30:14,820 --> 00:30:17,620
And you will be a great contributor
to the imperial court
563
00:30:17,660 --> 00:30:20,660
Yeah. Mother
564
00:30:20,700 --> 00:30:25,300
Zifu recovered by eating tofu made by Dongfang Shuo
565
00:30:25,300 --> 00:30:26,700
this time
566
00:30:28,740 --> 00:30:31,820
But tofu and Dongfang Shuo
are different!
567
00:30:31,820 --> 00:30:35,980
Your Majesty, don't always mention him
in front of me
568
00:30:35,980 --> 00:30:40,260
Mother, it's really thanks to
Dongfang Shuo's tofu
569
00:30:40,260 --> 00:30:41,540
One more word about him
570
00:30:42,300 --> 00:30:44,740
and I will have his tofu shop closed
571
00:30:49,060 --> 00:30:49,660
Mother
572
00:30:50,540 --> 00:30:53,940
Dongfang Shuo is the only one
who can make tofu in Chang'an
573
00:30:54,460 --> 00:30:57,380
Without tofu, Zifu will throw up
whatever she eats
574
00:30:57,420 --> 00:30:59,380
and the child in her womb will…
575
00:31:00,980 --> 00:31:02,340
I know what you're thinking
576
00:31:03,740 --> 00:31:06,700
I just can't let it go
577
00:31:10,220 --> 00:31:11,620
Your Majesty, Your Highness
578
00:31:12,260 --> 00:31:15,380
the Commander of the Feather Army, Huo Qubing, requested to meet Noble Lady
579
00:31:16,700 --> 00:31:18,620
- Let him in. - Understood
580
00:31:25,580 --> 00:31:28,260
Greetings, Your Majesty, Your Highness
581
00:31:29,740 --> 00:31:31,780
Rise, little general
582
00:31:34,220 --> 00:31:35,060
What's wrong with my aunt?
583
00:31:35,620 --> 00:31:37,900
Your aunt is not feeling well
584
00:31:38,140 --> 00:31:40,580
No wonder my godfather asked me
to bring two boxes of tofu
585
00:31:40,620 --> 00:31:42,020
saying that my aunt would throw everything up
586
00:31:42,060 --> 00:31:45,260
except for his tofu. It's the only thing
that can give her a good rest
587
00:31:45,700 --> 00:31:47,140
Liu Nan can also make tofu
588
00:31:47,780 --> 00:31:50,820
I can ask Liu Nan to make it every day
589
00:31:51,620 --> 00:31:53,660
Your godfather doesn't have to
worry about it
590
00:31:54,740 --> 00:31:55,420
Mother
591
00:31:56,300 --> 00:31:58,180
Liu Nan has bid farewell to me
592
00:31:58,220 --> 00:32:00,180
She will return to Jingchu soon
593
00:32:07,980 --> 00:32:10,260
Mr. Dongfang, Mrs. Dongfang
594
00:32:10,260 --> 00:32:12,540
goodbye
595
00:32:12,580 --> 00:32:15,980
Your Highness, have a safe trip.
I won't see you off then
596
00:32:16,020 --> 00:32:18,140
Dongfang Shuo will send you off for me
597
00:32:20,940 --> 00:32:22,540
Man!
598
00:32:22,580 --> 00:32:25,380
Her Highness taught you a skill
to make a living
599
00:32:25,420 --> 00:32:27,340
She is your teacher
600
00:32:28,860 --> 00:32:31,380
It's natural for a student to send his teacher off. Right, Your Highness?
601
00:32:32,980 --> 00:32:33,900
Of course
602
00:32:34,620 --> 00:32:36,860
Send me out of town, Mr. Dongfang
603
00:32:38,300 --> 00:32:39,700
- Then I'll send her off. - Go ahead
604
00:32:46,740 --> 00:32:50,300
Your Majesty, I will never dare to
do that again
605
00:32:50,340 --> 00:32:51,740
Please persuade my godfather
606
00:32:51,780 --> 00:32:53,180
He can give me any punishment
607
00:32:53,180 --> 00:32:55,460
- But don't let me leave the Feather Army. - No
608
00:32:56,380 --> 00:32:57,780
Dongfang Shuo has got a good point
609
00:32:58,460 --> 00:33:00,860
You must leave the Feather Army to study at the Grand Academy
610
00:33:01,500 --> 00:33:02,340
Why, Your Majesty?
611
00:33:03,980 --> 00:33:06,140
Because just like your godfather
612
00:33:06,180 --> 00:33:08,780
I don't want you to be the second Jin Wuzi
613
00:33:18,020 --> 00:33:18,660
Your Highness
614
00:33:19,660 --> 00:33:21,820
Jingchu is the largest feudatory
in the world
615
00:33:21,860 --> 00:33:24,220
A conspicuous target is easily at stake
616
00:33:27,140 --> 00:33:29,500
And your Crown Prince is ambitious
and high-spirited
617
00:33:30,260 --> 00:33:33,980
He can easily be provoked and exploited
by evil men
618
00:33:35,180 --> 00:33:36,660
So
619
00:33:36,700 --> 00:33:38,820
I want you to be the Prime Minister
of Jingchu
620
00:33:38,860 --> 00:33:41,100
to remind my brother from time to time
621
00:33:41,140 --> 00:33:43,620
But considering your status quo
622
00:33:44,220 --> 00:33:46,100
I can't force you any further
623
00:33:48,060 --> 00:33:49,460
You got nothing on this trip
624
00:33:51,420 --> 00:33:52,900
I'm so sorry, Your Highness
625
00:33:55,580 --> 00:33:56,340
Dongfang Shuo
626
00:33:56,860 --> 00:33:57,940
You have to promise me
627
00:33:58,780 --> 00:34:01,780
If one day, you can't stay in Chang'an anymore
628
00:34:01,820 --> 00:34:04,180
you should come to Jingchu
629
00:34:06,300 --> 00:34:07,620
If that day really comes
630
00:34:08,340 --> 00:34:10,860
I promise I will go and turn to you
for a living, Your Highness
631
00:34:12,460 --> 00:34:13,060
That's a deal
632
00:34:17,060 --> 00:34:17,580
Your Highness
633
00:34:18,540 --> 00:34:19,500
let's say goodbye here
634
00:34:20,700 --> 00:34:21,540
Farewell
635
00:34:28,220 --> 00:34:29,020
Your Highness!
636
00:34:32,860 --> 00:34:35,020
You can wipe off the lipstick
I left on your face
637
00:34:35,020 --> 00:34:37,500
but you can't erase the memories
I left in your heart
638
00:34:38,060 --> 00:34:40,300
You may go back and wait for
Mrs. Dongfang's whip
639
00:34:45,060 --> 00:34:47,260
I've been asked to beg the
Empress Dowager to give me a job
640
00:34:48,300 --> 00:34:50,660
Who put forward this terrible idea?
641
00:34:52,700 --> 00:34:54,660
There came a message from
Princess Pingyang
642
00:34:54,660 --> 00:34:56,300
after you sent Liu Nan away
643
00:34:58,420 --> 00:34:59,340
It's for your own good
644
00:35:00,100 --> 00:35:01,020
You may not know
645
00:35:02,020 --> 00:35:05,180
There are two people fighting
for my life now
646
00:35:06,660 --> 00:35:09,580
One wants me to die, and the other
wants me to live
647
00:35:10,460 --> 00:35:13,540
If I go plead with the one
who wants me to die
648
00:35:14,100 --> 00:35:17,020
the other one who will change his mind
and want to kill me, too
649
00:35:18,780 --> 00:35:20,940
Then I will be doomed to die
650
00:35:32,420 --> 00:35:36,340
Go and call Sima Qian here now
651
00:35:37,020 --> 00:35:37,820
Call him here?
652
00:35:38,420 --> 00:35:40,140
- Yes, here. Just go. - Yes, Your Majesty
653
00:35:50,300 --> 00:35:52,820
Greetings, Your Majesty, Your Highness
654
00:35:53,380 --> 00:35:55,740
Sima Qian? What are you doing here?
655
00:35:56,220 --> 00:35:57,420
I am here to consult His Majesty
656
00:35:58,340 --> 00:36:00,900
Your Majesty, there is one thing
I'm not sure
657
00:36:00,940 --> 00:36:02,100
You're a historian
658
00:36:02,540 --> 00:36:05,500
Just honestly record my words
and deeds every day
659
00:36:05,500 --> 00:36:08,420
with no need to judge between right and wrong. What are you not sure about?
660
00:36:08,860 --> 00:36:10,300
But I need a result
661
00:36:10,820 --> 00:36:11,340
Result?
662
00:36:15,260 --> 00:36:16,100
What result?
663
00:36:16,500 --> 00:36:18,940
- The result of Dongfang Shuo.
- Dongfang Shuo?
664
00:36:19,380 --> 00:36:20,900
Oh, right
665
00:36:21,980 --> 00:36:25,340
How did you record about Dongfang Shuo recently?
666
00:36:25,820 --> 00:36:26,860
Your Majesty
667
00:36:26,900 --> 00:36:28,620
I recorded everything
according to the facts
668
00:36:28,620 --> 00:36:30,980
without the slightest omission or fallacy
669
00:36:31,660 --> 00:36:32,740
Read it to me
670
00:36:35,060 --> 00:36:38,260
The Shang County Magistrate, Yi Zong, used the disaster to harm the people
671
00:36:38,260 --> 00:36:40,740
Countless people starved to death
in his jurisdiction
672
00:36:40,780 --> 00:36:42,660
The demoted official, Dongfang Shuo
673
00:36:42,660 --> 00:36:45,380
executed Yi Zong by pretending to be
an imperial envoy
674
00:36:45,420 --> 00:36:46,760
He provided relief and repaired the dam
675
00:36:46,760 --> 00:36:48,940
The Emperor was mad
and wanted to kill him
676
00:36:48,980 --> 00:36:52,100
The Empress Dowager spared and demoted him with mercy
677
00:36:52,140 --> 00:36:54,060
Then he sold tofu for a living
678
00:36:55,980 --> 00:36:56,660
Nice recording
679
00:36:57,340 --> 00:36:58,140
Historians
680
00:36:58,660 --> 00:37:01,020
should be like your grandfather and father
681
00:37:01,060 --> 00:37:02,420
using the brushes like swords
682
00:37:02,460 --> 00:37:05,780
to nail people to the history books
without any change
683
00:37:06,660 --> 00:37:08,220
But I am still not sure about one thing
684
00:37:08,980 --> 00:37:09,740
Go ahead
685
00:37:10,780 --> 00:37:14,380
Noble Lady Wei fell ill.
No medicine helped
686
00:37:14,660 --> 00:37:19,420
She ate the tofu offered by Dongfang Shuo for three days and was healed
687
00:37:19,460 --> 00:37:21,260
Your Majesty, Your Highness
688
00:37:21,700 --> 00:37:24,820
I don't know what to record next
689
00:37:25,260 --> 00:37:27,580
She was cured, and that's the end,
isn't it?
690
00:37:27,620 --> 00:37:31,100
But His Majesty once said that whoever could cure the Noble Lady
691
00:37:31,140 --> 00:37:33,140
would be promoted by three ranks
if he was an official
692
00:37:33,140 --> 00:37:35,300
or be appointed as a 500-Bushel official
or above if he was a civilian
693
00:37:35,300 --> 00:37:38,420
I wonder if you will keep your promise to Dongfang Shuo, Your Majesty
694
00:37:38,620 --> 00:37:39,620
and how
695
00:37:39,700 --> 00:37:42,220
So I can record it to end this story
696
00:37:43,180 --> 00:37:45,220
Dongfang Shuo is not a physician
697
00:37:45,260 --> 00:37:47,540
A few bowls of tofu are not medicine
698
00:37:47,580 --> 00:37:50,460
He just lucked out!
699
00:37:50,900 --> 00:37:52,620
Then I will record the fact
700
00:37:52,660 --> 00:37:55,380
- The Emperor didn't keep his promise.
- Hold on!
701
00:37:55,700 --> 00:37:56,540
yes, Your Highness
702
00:37:57,140 --> 00:37:59,940
The Emperor is the ruler of a state. How can you record it like this?
703
00:38:01,260 --> 00:38:04,820
Yes, an emperor never goes back
on his word
704
00:38:05,940 --> 00:38:07,380
Since I said something like that
705
00:38:08,300 --> 00:38:09,020
then I guess
706
00:38:10,660 --> 00:38:12,100
I have to keep my promise
707
00:38:12,580 --> 00:38:14,340
Then how should I record it?
708
00:38:14,620 --> 00:38:18,100
Don't let Dongfang Shuo get more than he deserves. Just a few bowls of tofu
709
00:38:18,500 --> 00:38:20,420
I would like to know how to record it
710
00:38:20,860 --> 00:38:22,620
You can record anything you want
711
00:38:23,420 --> 00:38:24,700
but do not degrade His Majesty
712
00:38:30,020 --> 00:38:30,820
Yi
713
00:38:32,180 --> 00:38:33,340
Yes, Your Majesty
714
00:38:34,660 --> 00:38:36,180
The Empress Dowager just gave an order
715
00:38:36,620 --> 00:38:38,980
Sima Qian can't degrade the Emperor
during his recording
716
00:38:39,620 --> 00:38:40,820
But Sima Qian said
717
00:38:40,860 --> 00:38:44,140
I didn't fulfill my promise
to Dongfang Shuo
718
00:38:44,180 --> 00:38:45,740
So he had to record it honestly
719
00:38:46,660 --> 00:38:49,300
But the truthful record will disgrace me
720
00:38:49,340 --> 00:38:54,460
What do you think I should do?
721
00:38:55,380 --> 00:38:58,300
Your Majesty, you can only do
what the Empress Dowager meant
722
00:38:59,460 --> 00:39:01,300
What did the Empress Dowager mean?
723
00:39:02,060 --> 00:39:05,020
Fulfill your promise to Dongfang Shuo,
Your Majesty
724
00:39:06,580 --> 00:39:09,300
Is that what the Empress
Dowager meant?
725
00:39:10,020 --> 00:39:11,020
Exactly
726
00:39:15,580 --> 00:39:16,220
Sima Qian
727
00:39:17,020 --> 00:39:21,100
- you have to record according to the Empress Dowager's order. - Understood
728
00:39:21,860 --> 00:39:23,340
I will continue the record as following
729
00:39:23,380 --> 00:39:24,940
Dongfang Shuo offered tofu
730
00:39:24,980 --> 00:39:28,300
Noble Lady ate it for three days and got cured. The Emperor was delighted
731
00:39:28,540 --> 00:39:31,220
and agreed to reinstate Dongfang Shuo
732
00:39:41,300 --> 00:39:45,540
Sister, look what I have brought you
733
00:39:47,460 --> 00:39:49,060
Dongfang Shuo has been reinstated
734
00:39:53,100 --> 00:39:55,660
Why… Why is he in office again?
735
00:39:57,940 --> 00:39:59,500
It is His Majesty's order
736
00:40:01,180 --> 00:40:02,540
His Majesty made a mistake
737
00:40:04,180 --> 00:40:05,220
Forgive me
738
00:40:05,420 --> 00:40:06,820
His Majesty didn't make a mistake
739
00:40:06,860 --> 00:40:08,620
It's just because Dongfang Shuo
is so wicked
740
00:40:15,820 --> 00:40:18,020
His Majesty had to keep his promise
741
00:40:19,180 --> 00:40:20,820
He can't be recorded
742
00:40:20,860 --> 00:40:24,540
as an Emperor who has gone back on his word in the history books
743
00:40:25,780 --> 00:40:28,420
Well, that's too good for Dongfang Shuo!
744
00:40:31,140 --> 00:40:31,980
That's it
745
00:40:33,220 --> 00:40:37,020
His Majesty is full-fledged, and I'm old
746
00:40:38,020 --> 00:40:40,340
I can no longer deal with all those things
747
00:40:43,340 --> 00:40:46,140
Sister, I came to report to you
748
00:40:46,180 --> 00:40:49,340
a solid message today
749
00:40:51,780 --> 00:40:55,080
Dongfang Shuo is colluding with Liu Hao,
the Crown Prince of Jingchu
750
00:40:55,080 --> 00:40:56,860
to plot a rebellion52121
