33
00:03:00,055 --> 00:03:02,395
Royal Father wants me to marry Saiya?

34
00:03:02,395 --> 00:03:04,145
Is this really true?

35
00:03:04,145 --> 00:03:05,414
Even the date is set.

36
00:03:05,414 --> 00:03:07,054
The wedding's happening soon!

37
00:03:07,054 --> 00:03:09,505
Yet, you're still here acting dumb?

38
00:03:09,505 --> 00:03:11,362
Look at this!

39
00:03:13,215 --> 00:03:16,074
Consort Ling even sent us formal dresses!

40
00:03:16,075 --> 00:03:18,294
She said we are to wear this at your wedding!

41
00:03:18,295 --> 00:03:21,094
Your Highness, that's not what Consort Ling said.

42
00:03:21,095 --> 00:03:22,234
It is!

43
00:03:22,235 --> 00:03:24,184
She said "celebrations." What's there to celebrate?

44
00:03:24,185 --> 00:03:26,215
A wedding, of course!

45
00:03:26,215 --> 00:03:28,084
You're about to get married.

46
00:03:28,085 --> 00:03:31,535
You're so happy being with the princess all day!

47
00:03:31,535 --> 00:03:33,425
Why are you even here?

48
00:03:33,425 --> 00:03:36,075
It turns out everything you said on the trip was a lie!

49
00:03:36,075 --> 00:03:38,985
I don't want to see you or hear from you again!

50
00:03:41,855 --> 00:03:43,425
Could it really be true?

51
00:03:43,425 --> 00:03:45,815
It may be true.

52
00:03:45,815 --> 00:03:47,274
Now, I understand.

53
00:03:47,275 --> 00:03:49,215
So that's what's going on.

54
00:03:49,215 --> 00:03:50,634
No wonder.

55
00:03:50,635 --> 00:03:55,675
Sending the three of us just to protect Saiya is a little too much.

56
00:03:55,675 --> 00:03:58,465
So they were choosing Saiya's prince consort.

57
00:03:59,095 --> 00:04:00,805
Prince Yongqi, there's no time to lose.

58
00:04:00,805 --> 00:04:03,535
Hurry and clarify this with His Majesty.

59
00:04:06,835 --> 00:04:10,005
Let's go together. Since Royal Father gave you an amnesty,

60
00:04:10,005 --> 00:04:12,135
let's explain everything to him!

61
00:04:12,135 --> 00:04:14,005
Wait!

62
00:04:15,105 --> 00:04:18,105
By that, do you mean you're going to confess everything?

63
00:04:18,845 --> 00:04:20,475
If I don't, what can I do?

64
00:04:20,475 --> 00:04:23,114
Ziwei said so herself. There's no time to lose.

65
00:04:23,115 --> 00:04:27,495
If we delay any longer, Royal Father will definitely betroth me to Saiya!

66
00:04:27,495 --> 00:04:28,924
Think about it.

67
00:04:28,925 --> 00:04:31,885
Aside from me, only Prince Yongrong can be matched with Saiya.

68
00:04:31,885 --> 00:04:34,455
But Royal Father only got me to accompany Saiya.

69
00:04:34,455 --> 00:04:37,025
He didn't even mention Prince Yongrong!

70
00:04:37,025 --> 00:04:39,474
Saiya is a princess.

71
00:04:39,475 --> 00:04:43,175
Since Baleben wants a political marriage, of course they'll choose a prince!

72
00:04:43,175 --> 00:04:44,775
I can't dodge this!

73
00:04:44,775 --> 00:04:47,454
If I don't go now, then it's really going to be me!

74
00:04:47,454 --> 00:04:51,664
But confessing everything is not something minor.

75
00:04:51,665 --> 00:04:53,895
It's a major issue.

76
00:04:53,895 --> 00:04:57,615
There's a lot that has to be explained in detail.

77
00:04:57,615 --> 00:05:01,054
His Majesty does not have the time to listen to all that right now.

78
00:05:01,054 --> 00:05:03,465
He won't be in the mood to accept it,

79
00:05:03,465 --> 00:05:06,155
nor have the emotions to digest it all.

80
00:05:06,155 --> 00:05:09,324
That Tibetan King prepared a lot of events.

81
00:05:09,325 --> 00:05:11,925
There's a schedule every day.

82
00:05:11,925 --> 00:05:15,895
Telling the truth during such chaotic times

83
00:05:15,895 --> 00:05:19,675
is really not the best idea.

84
00:05:22,525 --> 00:05:27,054
He's right. To His Majesty, this will come as a big surprise.

85
00:05:27,055 --> 00:05:29,984
We can't predict how he will react.

86
00:05:29,985 --> 00:05:32,274
With the Tibetan King here,

87
00:05:32,275 --> 00:05:35,375
His Majesty won't be in the mood for family affairs.

88
00:05:35,375 --> 00:05:39,895
No matter what, we must wait for the Tibetan King to leave.

89
00:05:39,895 --> 00:05:41,124
There is no time!

90
00:05:41,125 --> 00:05:44,405
By the time he leaves, I'll have been traded off!

91
00:05:46,305 --> 00:05:47,764
Erkang is right.

92
00:05:47,765 --> 00:05:50,624
Now is really not the time to tell the truth.

93
00:05:50,625 --> 00:05:54,555
His Majesty may have given Xiao Yanzi an amnesty,

94
00:05:54,555 --> 00:05:56,804
but Xiao Yanzi has indeed committed the crime of deceiving His Majesty.

95
00:05:56,805 --> 00:06:00,265
Could His Majesty's words really ease everything?

96
00:06:00,265 --> 00:06:03,703
If His Majesty is outraged that Xiao Yanzi isn't the real princess

97
00:06:03,703 --> 00:06:06,354
and then, he hears Prince Yongqi refuses to wed for Xiao Yanzi,

98
00:06:06,355 --> 00:06:08,925
wouldn't it be another shock for him?

99
00:06:08,925 --> 00:06:11,975
His Majesty has always thought of them as siblings.

100
00:06:11,975 --> 00:06:13,724
Now, if you suddenly tell him this,

101
00:06:13,725 --> 00:06:16,325
would he be able to accept this fact?

102
00:06:17,775 --> 00:06:21,735
Will he assume this is due to Xiao Yanzi's indecency and get even more infuriated?

103
00:06:26,155 --> 00:06:27,765
Never mind.

104
00:06:27,765 --> 00:06:29,615
I already knew my fate is bitter.

105
00:06:29,615 --> 00:06:32,225
Just go and marry Princess Saiya!

106
00:06:33,115 --> 00:06:35,115
I can't face Royal Father now.

107
00:06:35,115 --> 00:06:38,435
I may get behead or even lose my hands and feet.

108
00:06:38,435 --> 00:06:40,775
I can't bear to lose any of those things.

109
00:06:42,005 --> 00:06:44,165
But you can bear to let me go?

110
00:06:46,385 --> 00:06:50,034
Prince Yongqi, we only heard about this from Consort Ling.

111
00:06:50,034 --> 00:06:52,465
We're still unsure if it's true.

112
00:06:52,465 --> 00:06:56,965
Why not verify it before deciding if you want to tell the truth?

113
00:06:56,965 --> 00:06:59,935
Agreed. She's right.

114
00:06:59,935 --> 00:07:01,844
We are never calm enough.

115
00:07:01,845 --> 00:07:04,325
When something happens, we panic.

116
00:07:05,465 --> 00:07:08,894
Prince Yongqi, you better find out if this is true or not first.

117
00:07:17,725 --> 00:07:20,274
What? The one Saiya has eyes for isn't Yongqi?

118
00:07:20,274 --> 00:07:22,105
Who is it?

119
00:07:23,055 --> 00:07:25,134
Our Saiya is the best.

120
00:07:25,135 --> 00:07:26,634
She's nice and great at kung fu.

121
00:07:26,635 --> 00:07:29,954
In Tibet, there's an army of warriors who want to marry her,

122
00:07:29,955 --> 00:07:31,915
but she doesn't like any of them.

123
00:07:31,915 --> 00:07:35,435
After we came to Beijing, she actually fell in love!

124
00:07:36,395 --> 00:07:38,254
I also hoped that she would like Yongqi,

125
00:07:38,255 --> 00:07:39,814
but she has her own preferences.

126
00:07:39,815 --> 00:07:43,345
This is her own marriage, so she will decide for herself.

127
00:07:43,835 --> 00:07:45,665
Who is it then?

128
00:07:45,665 --> 00:07:50,155
The warrior who fought her on stage that day, Fu Erkang!

129
00:07:50,155 --> 00:07:51,414
Erkang?

130
00:07:51,414 --> 00:07:52,865
Not Erkang.

131
00:07:52,865 --> 00:07:54,425
Why not?

132
00:07:54,425 --> 00:07:58,344
To be honest, Erkang is my chosen son-in-law.

133
00:07:58,344 --> 00:08:01,624
My Princess Pearl is at the age to be engaged.

134
00:08:01,625 --> 00:08:04,514
I want to keep Erkang for Xiao Yanzi.

135
00:08:04,514 --> 00:08:06,915
You have so many warriors. Why must you fight for him with me?

136
00:08:06,915 --> 00:08:08,274
How am I fighting with you?

137
00:08:08,275 --> 00:08:09,734
Erkang is one of my people!

138
00:08:09,735 --> 00:08:12,205
Are they married then?

139
00:08:12,205 --> 00:08:14,315
They are not married,

140
00:08:14,315 --> 00:08:16,434
but I have hinted this at them long before.

141
00:08:16,435 --> 00:08:19,484
The two children are also well aware.

142
00:08:19,485 --> 00:08:21,834
An emperor stands by his word. How can I take back my words now?

143
00:08:21,834 --> 00:08:23,905
If they're not married, it doesn't count.

144
00:08:23,905 --> 00:08:26,624
Think about it. Saiya is a good lady.

145
00:08:26,625 --> 00:08:28,574
She will not mistreat Erkang.

146
00:08:28,575 --> 00:08:34,475
I may be a king, but I respect Your Majesty.

147
00:08:34,475 --> 00:08:36,984
I sincerely wish for this marriage to happen.

148
00:08:36,985 --> 00:08:38,874
Why be so hung up over Erkang?

149
00:08:38,875 --> 00:08:40,875
Can't you find another prince consort?

150
00:08:41,425 --> 00:08:45,774
Your Majesty. Do you think I want to marry Saiya off to Beijing?

151
00:08:45,775 --> 00:08:47,394
I'm rather reluctant too.

152
00:08:47,395 --> 00:08:51,154
But she is in love now and she is my most precious daughter.

153
00:08:51,155 --> 00:08:53,545
I cannot disappoint her.

154
00:08:53,545 --> 00:08:56,324
If your princess is engaged to Erkang,

155
00:08:56,325 --> 00:08:59,304
then Saiya can share the same husband as her,

156
00:08:59,305 --> 00:09:00,994
and they will be equals.

157
00:09:00,995 --> 00:09:03,375
How about that?

158
00:09:05,435 --> 00:09:06,944
God's plans supersede our own.

159
00:09:06,945 --> 00:09:09,875
You came before I could have them engaged.

160
00:09:09,875 --> 00:09:13,635
Maybe this is fate.

161
00:09:13,635 --> 00:09:16,404
Very well, Baleben. Consider us friends.

162
00:09:16,404 --> 00:09:18,465
Erkang will be yours!

163
00:09:19,515 --> 00:09:21,304
We are now relatives. We are family!

164
00:09:21,305 --> 00:09:24,405
Your Majesty, thank you for your generosity.

165
00:09:24,405 --> 00:09:27,615
I will stay in Beijing and witness their wedding!

166
00:09:31,895 --> 00:09:32,955
<i>[Palace of Heavenly Purity]</i>

167
00:09:35,915 --> 00:09:38,724
A political marriage is key for the harmony of two nations.

168
00:09:38,725 --> 00:09:42,545
After this, the borderlands war will also be resolved.

169
00:09:42,545 --> 00:09:44,144
I've decided to go through with it.

170
00:09:44,145 --> 00:09:47,305
Baleben also hopes the wedding can be held soon.

171
00:09:47,305 --> 00:09:49,444
This will be the greatest wedding for the country!

172
00:09:49,445 --> 00:09:51,164
I hope everyone can get this arranged soon.

173
00:09:51,165 --> 00:09:52,965
Let's pick a date too.

174
00:09:52,965 --> 00:09:56,794
Your Majesty, may I know which prince was chosen?

175
00:09:56,794 --> 00:10:00,905
It's the eldest son of the Fu family who beat all of my sons,

176
00:10:00,905 --> 00:10:03,125
Fu Erkang!

177
00:10:04,055 --> 00:10:06,065
Congratulations!

178
00:10:06,065 --> 00:10:09,394
To show my gratitude, I will crown Erkang as a beizi. <br> <i>(T/N: Beizi is noble rank, known as the prince of the fourth rank)</i>

179
00:10:09,395 --> 00:10:12,695
The wedding shall follow the standards of a prince.

180
00:10:15,035 --> 00:10:16,665
Your Majesty.

181
00:10:16,665 --> 00:10:17,774
Any complaints?

182
00:10:17,775 --> 00:10:19,604
Absolutely not!

183
00:10:19,605 --> 00:10:24,435
However, Erkang is rather stubborn.

184
00:10:24,435 --> 00:10:26,274
His temper is not great either.

185
00:10:26,275 --> 00:10:29,005
I'm afraid he would mistreat Princess Saiya.

186
00:10:29,005 --> 00:10:32,754
I wonder if this can still be negotiated?

187
00:10:32,754 --> 00:10:35,174
I've already promised Baleben! What is there to negotiate?

188
00:10:35,174 --> 00:10:36,484
Yes, Your Majesty.

189
00:10:36,485 --> 00:10:41,234
Saiya may be a little spoiled, but she is very beautiful,

190
00:10:41,235 --> 00:10:43,384
skilled in kung fu, and is also a princess.

191
00:10:43,385 --> 00:10:46,015
There's no way she's not good enough for Erkang.

192
00:10:46,015 --> 00:10:50,104
Furthermore, this marriage is not just any marriage.

193
00:10:50,105 --> 00:10:51,974
Its purpose is to solve problems for me.

194
00:10:51,975 --> 00:10:55,045
This is considered showing your loyalty to the country.

195
00:10:55,045 --> 00:10:58,385
Even if you're unwilling, you will have to accept it anyway.

196
00:10:58,385 --> 00:11:00,484
This is my edict and it's not negotiable.

197
00:11:00,485 --> 00:11:03,004
You are to fulfill the marriage as per the edict!

198
00:11:03,004 --> 00:11:04,735
I mean not to upset Your Majesty.

199
00:11:04,735 --> 00:11:08,345
Your wish is my command, Your Majesty.

200
00:11:09,815 --> 00:11:12,734
Erkang has always been a talent that I've thought most highly of.

201
00:11:12,735 --> 00:11:15,434
After the wedding, he will be promoted and be granted nobility.

202
00:11:15,435 --> 00:11:18,565
This is an honor for the Fu family!

203
00:11:18,565 --> 00:11:21,994
Good news like this is something that many can only dream of.

204
00:11:21,995 --> 00:11:25,745
So stop making excuses and making me feel bad.

205
00:11:25,745 --> 00:11:27,384
Thank you for your grace, Your Majesty.

206
00:11:27,385 --> 00:11:30,025
Your Majesty's edict is my command.

207
00:11:30,025 --> 00:11:31,724
All right, you may all leave.

208
00:11:31,725 --> 00:11:34,034
You can all discuss on what to do.

209
00:11:34,035 --> 00:11:35,905
Yes, Your Majesty.

210
00:11:44,905 --> 00:11:48,705
- Respects to Prince Yongqi. <br> - Respects to Prince Yongqi.

211
00:11:49,275 --> 00:11:50,234
Is Royal Father in the study?

212
00:11:50,234 --> 00:11:52,235
Have you seen Erkang?

213
00:11:52,235 --> 00:11:54,375
I was just with Erkang earlier.

214
00:11:54,375 --> 00:11:56,755
I ask of Prince Yongqi to inform him

215
00:11:56,755 --> 00:11:59,354
that he has been chosen to marry Princess Saiya.

216
00:11:59,355 --> 00:12:02,425
He is to return home now to discuss the marriage.

217
00:12:03,395 --> 00:12:05,314
<i>[Shu Fang Zhai Palace]</i>

218
00:12:05,315 --> 00:12:07,484
Not you but me?

219
00:12:07,485 --> 00:12:09,094
Yes, it's you!

220
00:12:09,095 --> 00:12:11,104
I heard that your father wanted to help you out,

221
00:12:11,105 --> 00:12:14,254
but Royal Father got angry and said it has already been decided.

222
00:12:14,255 --> 00:12:16,615
You must marry as per the edict.

223
00:12:21,595 --> 00:12:25,954
This isn't the time to be cautious anymore. Right?

224
00:12:25,954 --> 00:12:30,135
Whether the timing is good or bad, you cannot delay it anymore, Young Miss.

225
00:12:30,135 --> 00:12:31,894
Hurry and tell His Majesty!

226
00:12:31,895 --> 00:12:34,395
Since we have to say it eventually,

227
00:12:34,395 --> 00:12:37,904
instead of planning for it, let's just do it today!

228
00:12:37,904 --> 00:12:39,484
Let's confess everything.

229
00:12:39,485 --> 00:12:43,665
Otherwise, as more misunderstandings occur, all sorts of problems may happen!

230
00:12:43,665 --> 00:12:45,874
We were always worried about this and that,

231
00:12:45,875 --> 00:12:48,024
swallowing back words when we were about to confess.

232
00:12:48,025 --> 00:12:51,385
Now, the situation has become critical!

233
00:12:51,385 --> 00:12:55,314
The problems we face are like waves, with one wave coming at us after another.

234
00:12:55,315 --> 00:12:58,575
Even if we avoid this crisis, we won't be able to avoid the next!

235
00:12:58,575 --> 00:13:02,695
If we keep hesitating, then nothing can be solved!

236
00:13:02,695 --> 00:13:05,064
We should do as Jinsuo says.

237
00:13:05,065 --> 00:13:07,534
Let's not wait any longer. Call it fate if you must.

238
00:13:07,534 --> 00:13:09,865
Let's unveil the truth!

239
00:13:11,765 --> 00:13:13,034
I need more time to think.

240
00:13:13,035 --> 00:13:14,144
What's there to think about?

241
00:13:14,145 --> 00:13:16,384
If you keep thinking, Erkang will be a Tibetan prince consort

242
00:13:16,385 --> 00:13:17,824
and you'll become an imperial concubine!

243
00:13:17,825 --> 00:13:19,824
She's hesitating just to protect me!

244
00:13:19,825 --> 00:13:22,845
I can't take this. I will confess everything!

245
00:13:22,845 --> 00:13:25,034
I don't care about the timing or the consequences.

246
00:13:25,035 --> 00:13:26,154
I've thought things through.

247
00:13:26,155 --> 00:13:29,095
He can take my head or my life!

248
00:13:29,095 --> 00:13:31,125
Xiao Yanzi, where are you going?

249
00:13:31,125 --> 00:13:33,494
I'm going to the Imperial Study to see Royal Father!

250
00:13:33,495 --> 00:13:36,235
Let's go together! Slow down!

251
00:13:36,835 --> 00:13:38,374
Erkang, stay strong!

252
00:13:38,375 --> 00:13:39,505
We can't hide anymore!

253
00:13:39,505 --> 00:13:41,374
Why don't we see His Majesty together?

254
00:13:41,375 --> 00:13:43,634
Xiao Yanzi is so fired up. How can she explain it clearly?

255
00:13:43,635 --> 00:13:46,075
Let's go! Come on!

256
00:13:48,315 --> 00:13:49,915
Let's go!

257
00:13:55,305 --> 00:13:58,775
Baleben, from now on, we will be considered in-laws.

258
00:13:58,775 --> 00:14:02,094
I requested for a few plays at the theater tonight.

259
00:14:02,095 --> 00:14:05,655
You can feast your eyes on Chinese theater.

260
00:14:05,655 --> 00:14:08,455
Saiya, you are still not very good at Mandarin.

261
00:14:08,455 --> 00:14:10,534
To learn the Chinese culture,

262
00:14:10,534 --> 00:14:12,144
the first step should be to watch plays.

263
00:14:12,145 --> 00:14:13,725
Do you understand?

264
00:14:13,725 --> 00:14:14,694
Understood.

265
00:14:14,695 --> 00:14:15,874
I've to learn to kneel too.

266
00:14:15,875 --> 00:14:18,344
Women in this palace must kneel whenever they meet people.

267
00:14:18,345 --> 00:14:20,115
How odd.

268
00:14:20,115 --> 00:14:24,714
Princess Saiya and Princess Pearl are somewhat similar.

269
00:14:24,715 --> 00:14:27,855
They will definitely become the best of friends.

270
00:14:29,685 --> 00:14:32,184
Your Majesty. Is this Princess Pearl

271
00:14:32,184 --> 00:14:35,624
the princess that you initially intended to engage to Erkang?

272
00:14:35,625 --> 00:14:37,565
That's right.

273
00:14:38,165 --> 00:14:40,294
Saiya, you have good taste.

274
00:14:40,295 --> 00:14:44,464
The warrior that you chose was snatched from their princess!

275
00:14:44,465 --> 00:14:47,714
You must treasure him. Don't be too fierce.

276
00:14:47,714 --> 00:14:48,974
I'm not fierce at all!

277
00:14:48,975 --> 00:14:51,674
(Tibetan)

278
00:14:51,675 --> 00:14:53,585
(Tibetan)

279
00:14:54,645 --> 00:14:56,385
Royal Father!

280
00:14:56,385 --> 00:14:57,914
Royal Father, I have something to tell you!

281
00:14:57,915 --> 00:15:00,915
You cannot betroth Erkang to Saiya!

282
00:15:04,725 --> 00:15:07,025
Is this the princess?

283
00:15:07,525 --> 00:15:09,814
Have you lost it? Can't you see we have guests?

284
00:15:09,815 --> 00:15:11,794
What is this nonsense with all the shouting?

285
00:15:11,795 --> 00:15:13,405
We'll talk tomorrow!

286
00:15:13,405 --> 00:15:15,635
We can't wait until tomorrow, Royal Father!

287
00:15:15,635 --> 00:15:18,554
If Erkang is engaged to Saiya, you will regret it!

288
00:15:18,555 --> 00:15:20,435
Hurry and tell him that this won't work!

289
00:15:20,435 --> 00:15:22,174
The Tibetan King's daughter can't b.

290
00:15:22,175 --> 00:15:24,444
more important than your own daughter, right?

291
00:15:24,445 --> 00:15:27,274
How rude and shameless!

292
00:15:27,275 --> 00:15:29,945
Publicly fighting over a man with the Tibetan princess?

293
00:15:29,945 --> 00:15:33,715
Your Majesty, you cannot let Xiao Yanzi ruin the family reputation!

294
00:15:33,715 --> 00:15:36,054
Guards! Seize the Princess Pearl!

295
00:15:36,055 --> 00:15:37,565
Royal Father!

296
00:15:38,475 --> 00:15:40,524
Royal Father, we have something to tell you.

297
00:15:40,525 --> 00:15:41,564
Please give us privacy.

298
00:15:41,565 --> 00:15:42,974
Yongqi!

299
00:15:42,975 --> 00:15:44,524
Are you acting crazy with Xiao Yanzi too?

300
00:15:44,525 --> 00:15:45,724
We have guests!

301
00:15:45,725 --> 00:15:47,204
What is there to tell?

302
00:15:47,205 --> 00:15:49,354
They are all your elders. How do I tell them to leave?

303
00:15:49,355 --> 00:15:51,595
Ridiculous!

304
00:15:51,595 --> 00:15:53,394
Your Highness, now is not the time to talk.

305
00:15:53,395 --> 00:15:55,404
His Majesty is hosting guests. Don't say anything!

306
00:15:55,405 --> 00:15:57,154
- Let's go!<br> - No way!

307
00:15:57,155 --> 00:15:58,554
I beg you. Please leave with me!

308
00:15:58,555 --> 00:16:00,004
Jinsuo, hold her down!

309
00:16:00,005 --> 00:16:01,664
Your Highness, just listen to Ziwei.

310
00:16:01,665 --> 00:16:03,594
We cannot say it now. Let's go back first!

311
00:16:03,595 --> 00:16:06,694
No way! If I don't say it, Saiya will snatch Erkang away!

312
00:16:06,695 --> 00:16:09,104
So it's you! You are Princess Pearl.

313
00:16:09,104 --> 00:16:11,385
That day, you tried to beat me with your voice. Now, you want my prince consort?

314
00:16:11,385 --> 00:16:15,074
That's fine. If you can win my whip, Erkang is yours!

315
00:16:15,074 --> 00:16:16,594
You ridiculous princess.

316
00:16:16,595 --> 00:16:18,135
Are there no men in Tibet?

317
00:16:18,135 --> 00:16:19,894
Why come here and snatch someone else's husband?

318
00:16:19,895 --> 00:16:22,465
I'll fight you. Bring it on!

319
00:16:28,005 --> 00:16:29,845
Xiao Yanzi!

320
00:16:32,965 --> 00:16:33,954
What nonsense is this?

321
00:16:33,955 --> 00:16:35,515
Guards, separate them!

322
00:16:35,515 --> 00:16:37,085
Your Majesty.

323
00:16:37,085 --> 00:16:38,954
Your Princess Pearl is very brave.

324
00:16:38,955 --> 00:16:40,054
She is a great princess.

325
00:16:40,055 --> 00:16:42,685
Daughters should be like this. They should not back down.

326
00:16:43,475 --> 00:16:45,354
It's great! Let them fight!

327
00:16:45,355 --> 00:16:47,484
Let them fight for the prince consort with their kung fu.

328
00:16:47,485 --> 00:16:50,315
Nobody should help. Watch them fight!

329
00:17:33,075 --> 00:17:35,304
Stop, stop! Let's stop!

330
00:17:35,305 --> 00:17:37,675
Stop, stop!

331
00:17:37,675 --> 00:17:39,377
You lost.

332
00:17:48,725 --> 00:17:51,385
Who is the loser now?

333
00:17:51,895 --> 00:17:52,904
Who said I lost?

334
00:17:52,904 --> 00:17:54,705
As they say, "In war... something deceitful!"

335
00:17:54,705 --> 00:17:57,914
(Tibetan)

336
00:17:57,915 --> 00:18:02,584
Do you surrender?

337
00:18:44,005 --> 00:18:46,275
Enough. Stop fighting.

338
00:18:47,615 --> 00:18:50,684
It's you. Fine, I'll let this go.

339
00:18:53,155 --> 00:18:54,634
That's enough. Stop messing around.

340
00:18:54,635 --> 00:18:56,884
Xiao Yanzi, return to the Shu Fang Zhai Palace

341
00:18:56,885 --> 00:18:59,055
and ponder over your mistakes!

342
00:19:01,982 --> 00:19:03,716
Your Highness.

343
00:19:05,095 --> 00:19:06,904
Come on, let's go back.

344
00:19:06,905 --> 00:19:09,112
Don't say anything now.

345
00:19:09,635 --> 00:19:11,136
Royal Father!

346
00:19:11,136 --> 00:19:13,334
I am not fighting over Erkang for myself.

347
00:19:13,335 --> 00:19:14,934
I'm doing this for Ziwei!

348
00:19:14,935 --> 00:19:16,944
For the sake of her taking a stab for you,

349
00:19:16,945 --> 00:19:19,505
can't you grant her a husband?

350
00:19:21,785 --> 00:19:22,854
What are you saying?

351
00:19:22,855 --> 00:19:24,525
- Royal Fath...<br> - Shut up!

352
00:19:24,525 --> 00:19:25,884
Stop talking.

353
00:19:25,885 --> 00:19:28,605
Come back! Clear things up!

354
00:19:28,605 --> 00:19:31,065
What is going on?

355
00:19:31,825 --> 00:19:33,655
Xiao Yanzi!

356
00:19:34,215 --> 00:19:35,554
Royal Father, I lied to you.

357
00:19:35,555 --> 00:19:37,415
I'm not your daughter!

358
00:19:37,415 --> 00:19:38,764
I'm not a princess.

359
00:19:38,765 --> 00:19:40,714
The real princess is Ziwei!

360
00:19:40,714 --> 00:19:42,985
She is the one who is Xia Yuhe's daughter!

361
00:19:42,985 --> 00:19:45,035
What?

362
00:20:16,305 --> 00:20:18,705
My mother once told me

363
00:20:19,274 --> 00:20:24,044
if I meet my father one day,

364
00:20:24,705 --> 00:20:26,875
I must ask him this.

365
00:20:28,152 --> 00:20:32,082
Do you remember Xia Yuhe from Daming Lake?

366
00:20:35,085 --> 00:20:38,845
And there's one more thing that even Xiao Yanzi doesn't know of.

367
00:20:40,525 --> 00:20:43,325
The bulrush is as strong as silk,

368
00:20:43,875 --> 00:20:47,225
but is your love for me as solid as stone?

369
00:20:49,005 --> 00:20:52,165
Your Majesty, deception of the royal bloodline

370
00:20:52,165 --> 00:20:54,084
is not a matter to be settled hastily.

371
00:20:54,085 --> 00:20:56,215
We can't just let them keep spouting nonsense.

372
00:20:56,215 --> 00:20:58,704
How many daughters does Xia Yuhe have?

373
00:20:58,704 --> 00:21:00,934
Why is everyone from Daming Lake?

374
00:21:00,935 --> 00:21:03,844
If they are not sent to the Imperial Clan Court for proper investigation,

375
00:21:03,845 --> 00:21:07,045
how can we answer to the people?

376
00:21:09,325 --> 00:21:11,605
<i>[Palace of Heavenly Purity]</i>

377
00:21:35,585 --> 00:21:39,385
That is the whole story.

378
00:21:39,385 --> 00:21:41,684
I was only Ziwei's messenger.

379
00:21:41,685 --> 00:21:43,925
I'm not a princess.

380
00:21:43,925 --> 00:21:46,660
At the time, I was in a daze

381
00:21:46,660 --> 00:21:48,750
and failed to explain immediately.

382
00:21:48,755 --> 00:21:51,090
When I wanted to explain it,

383
00:21:51,090 --> 00:21:53,290
I could not explain myself anymore.

384
00:21:53,295 --> 00:21:56,524
Actually, I told everyone about it.

385
00:21:56,525 --> 00:21:58,485
I told Royal Father too.

386
00:21:58,485 --> 00:22:02,795
I said I wasn't a princess! But nobody believed me!

387
00:22:02,800 --> 00:22:04,870
Everyone warned me

388
00:22:04,870 --> 00:22:07,760
that if I say that I'm not a princess,

389
00:22:07,765 --> 00:22:09,684
I will be beheaded!

390
00:22:09,685 --> 00:22:12,554
Thus, I was too scared to speak.

391
00:22:12,554 --> 00:22:17,285
I kept delaying it and it eventually led to this situation today.

392
00:22:18,105 --> 00:22:21,605
Is everything that you're saying now true?

393
00:22:21,605 --> 00:22:23,754
You lied and made up so many stories.

394
00:22:23,755 --> 00:22:25,955
It has already become a habit.

395
00:22:25,955 --> 00:22:29,834
Is this a story that the few of you made up together?

396
00:22:29,835 --> 00:22:31,335
Speak.

397
00:22:32,175 --> 00:22:36,175
Death is just around the corner, so you can stop with the nonsense!

398
00:22:36,845 --> 00:22:38,495
Ziwei is a princess?

399
00:22:38,495 --> 00:22:42,095
Will Jinsuo become the princess next time?

400
00:22:42,095 --> 00:22:45,565
How many fake princesses did you arrange to deceive His Majesty?

401
00:22:45,565 --> 00:22:48,185
Ridiculous!

402
00:22:48,875 --> 00:22:51,645
So, what is the truth?

403
00:22:51,645 --> 00:22:54,045
What are you conspiring?

404
00:22:54,045 --> 00:22:55,424
Speak!

405
00:22:55,425 --> 00:22:58,414
We aren't conspiring anything! I'm telling the truth!

406
00:22:58,414 --> 00:23:00,664
Royal Father, why aren't you saying anything?

407
00:23:00,665 --> 00:23:03,364
Xiao Yanzi! Ziwei!

408
00:23:03,365 --> 00:23:07,085
How can you two fool me like this?

409
00:23:07,085 --> 00:23:08,905
I trusted you so much,

410
00:23:08,905 --> 00:23:11,545
yet you deceived me like this?

411
00:23:12,345 --> 00:23:16,834
If your story is true, why didn't you tell me when Ziwei entered the palace?

412
00:23:21,705 --> 00:23:23,405
Your Majesty.

413
00:23:23,405 --> 00:23:26,555
How could I tell you until I was sure

414
00:23:26,555 --> 00:23:29,175
that Xiao Yanzi's life wasn't at risk?

415
00:23:29,175 --> 00:23:32,395
Even though I really wanted to reunite with my father,

416
00:23:32,395 --> 00:23:36,365
I cannot let Xiao Yanzi die.

417
00:23:36,365 --> 00:23:38,595
Xiao Yanzi may live in a daze

418
00:23:38,595 --> 00:23:40,905
but not me!

419
00:23:40,905 --> 00:23:44,495
I know how serious the crime of deceiving the emperor is.

420
00:23:44,495 --> 00:23:48,465
I had no choice. I couldn't say it.

421
00:23:49,075 --> 00:23:52,805
But every time you asked about my mother,

422
00:23:52,805 --> 00:23:55,745
I gave you hints!

423
00:24:03,325 --> 00:24:07,134
Your Majesty, don't tell me you're believing these lies?

424
00:24:07,134 --> 00:24:10,595
You believe Xiao Yanzi isn't a princess but Ziwei is?

425
00:24:10,595 --> 00:24:15,054
Your Majesty, you've already made one mistake. Don't repeat it again.

426
00:24:15,055 --> 00:24:17,575
Now, even the Tibetan King knows about it.

427
00:24:17,575 --> 00:24:21,285
Do you want everyone in the world to laugh at us?

428
00:24:21,285 --> 00:24:24,304
Your Majesty, let His Majesty decide for himself.

429
00:24:24,304 --> 00:24:28,495
After all, only His Majesty knows about his matters best.

430
00:24:29,585 --> 00:24:32,245
What are you saying?

431
00:24:32,245 --> 00:24:37,174
Back then, I said it was impossible that Xiao Yanzi was a princess.

432
00:24:37,174 --> 00:24:39,545
I said that she must be fake!

433
00:24:39,545 --> 00:24:42,384
Yet, I wonder who told His Majesty

434
00:24:42,385 --> 00:24:45,505
that her eyebrows and eyes resembled His Majesty's?

435
00:24:45,505 --> 00:24:47,805
Who insisted she was the emperor's child?

436
00:24:47,805 --> 00:24:52,155
With such a capital offense, Xiao Yanzi deserves to be executed!

437
00:24:52,155 --> 00:24:54,575
And the person who spread rumors and misled His Majesty

438
00:24:54,575 --> 00:24:57,375
is even more despicable than the deceiver herself!

439
00:24:57,375 --> 00:25:01,004
Now, do you still intend to use your wicked tongue

440
00:25:01,004 --> 00:25:03,735
to bewitch His Majesty?

441
00:25:05,865 --> 00:25:07,495
Royal Father!

442
00:25:10,535 --> 00:25:12,345
Please listen to me.

443
00:25:12,345 --> 00:25:16,595
In this story, none of us had evil intentions.

444
00:25:16,595 --> 00:25:18,705
Even though we lied to you,

445
00:25:18,705 --> 00:25:22,045
we all tried our best to make you happy!

446
00:25:22,875 --> 00:25:27,715
Xiao Yanzi and Ziwei have never harmed you.

447
00:25:27,715 --> 00:25:32,925
The both of them tried their best to make you happy!

448
00:25:32,925 --> 00:25:36,154
Fu Lun! All of you knew of the secret long ago!

449
00:25:36,155 --> 00:25:37,384
Why didn't you tell me?

450
00:25:37,385 --> 00:25:41,984
Your Majesty. I really had my hands tied.

451
00:25:41,984 --> 00:25:44,825
There were too many things holding us back.

452
00:25:44,825 --> 00:25:48,801
Your Majesty, please allow me to say a few words.

453
00:25:48,801 --> 00:25:54,035
At that time, we did not fully trust Ziwei's birth story.

454
00:25:54,035 --> 00:25:56,904
Aside from letting her stay with us and slowly investigating her,

455
00:25:56,905 --> 00:25:59,305
we didn't know what else to do.

456
00:25:59,845 --> 00:26:02,025
After Xiao Yanzi sneaked out

457
00:26:02,025 --> 00:26:06,775
and met with her, only then were we certain about this.

458
00:26:06,775 --> 00:26:10,164
Then, we tried so hard to send Ziwei into the palace,

459
00:26:10,165 --> 00:26:14,065
so that both princesses could be with Your Majesty.

460
00:26:14,555 --> 00:26:17,215
Your Majesty didn't incur any losses!

461
00:26:17,215 --> 00:26:21,735
All of us did indeed mean well.

462
00:26:22,335 --> 00:26:24,835
We may have deceived you,

463
00:26:24,835 --> 00:26:27,535
but it's also because we love you!

464
00:26:30,465 --> 00:26:34,965
Your Majesty, please think about it.

465
00:26:34,965 --> 00:26:36,989
When we first discovered Ziwei

466
00:26:36,989 --> 00:26:39,905
and found out there was a mistake,

467
00:26:39,905 --> 00:26:42,325
we could have killed Ziwei

468
00:26:42,325 --> 00:26:44,913
and kept this secret forever.

469
00:26:45,455 --> 00:26:47,889
But we did not do that.

470
00:26:47,889 --> 00:26:50,315
We could've also sent Ziwei away,

471
00:26:50,315 --> 00:26:52,922
so that she could never meet Your Majesty,

472
00:26:52,922 --> 00:26:55,595
but we did not do that either.

473
00:26:55,595 --> 00:26:59,465
We let Ziwei stay, then sent her into the palace.

474
00:26:59,465 --> 00:27:02,853
Part of it was because we had no choice,

475
00:27:02,853 --> 00:27:06,889
but most importantly, it was because Ziwei's love for Your Majesty

476
00:27:06,889 --> 00:27:09,875
wasn't something we could ignore.

477
00:27:09,875 --> 00:27:11,545
How dare you!

478
00:27:11,555 --> 00:27:16,255
The Fu family committed such sinister fraud along with Consort Ling.

479
00:27:16,255 --> 00:27:18,914
Now, you have been discovered, yet you're still not repenting.

480
00:27:18,915 --> 00:27:23,124
You're making even more excuses, influencing His Majesty's judgment.

481
00:27:23,125 --> 00:27:25,185
Such is a crime that deserves death!

482
00:27:25,915 --> 00:27:29,234
Your Majesty. In the past, my advice has always been unpleasant,

483
00:27:29,234 --> 00:27:30,804
displeasing Your Majesty repeatedly.

484
00:27:30,805 --> 00:27:34,365
I said to not trust Princess Pearl, but Your Majesty did not listen!

485
00:27:34,365 --> 00:27:37,574
Now, I have no choice but to stand my ground again.

486
00:27:37,575 --> 00:27:39,744
This entire story is ridiculous.

487
00:27:39,745 --> 00:27:43,694
Your Majesty, you must not be deceived again!

488
00:27:44,341 --> 00:27:46,141
My empress is right.

489
00:27:46,141 --> 00:27:47,785
I cannot repeat my mistakes

490
00:27:47,785 --> 00:27:50,945
and let all of you deceive me repeatedly.

491
00:27:50,945 --> 00:27:52,954
Your story is full of plot holes!

492
00:27:52,955 --> 00:27:55,155
I will not trust any of it!

493
00:27:55,155 --> 00:27:58,064
Royal Father! Why don't you trust us?

494
00:27:58,064 --> 00:27:59,725
Ziwei is really your daughter!

495
00:27:59,725 --> 00:28:01,945
She is your birth daughter!

496
00:28:01,945 --> 00:28:05,744
You don't have to acknowledge me, but how can you not acknowledge Ziwei?

497
00:28:07,955 --> 00:28:10,904
Your Majesty, please think about how Ziwei took a stab for you.

498
00:28:10,904 --> 00:28:14,944
What power could've pushed her to block off that dagger with her body?

499
00:28:14,944 --> 00:28:17,604
Think about what she said and what she has done before.

500
00:28:17,605 --> 00:28:20,694
We witnessed everything as onlookers.

501
00:28:20,695 --> 00:28:23,965
Do you really not see it?

502
00:28:23,965 --> 00:28:26,654
Your Majesty, this is just an internal interrogation.

503
00:28:26,654 --> 00:28:28,794
I think we should end it here.

504
00:28:28,795 --> 00:28:32,394
They conspired together and that is an undeniable fact!

505
00:28:32,395 --> 00:28:34,444
How they are to be convicted and sentenced

506
00:28:34,445 --> 00:28:36,364
should be decided by the Imperial Clan Court.

507
00:28:36,365 --> 00:28:39,024
Why don't we lock them up in the Imperial Clan Court?

508
00:28:39,025 --> 00:28:41,064
Your Majesty, you must think this through.

509
00:28:41,065 --> 00:28:43,324
Fu Lun and his family won many wars for the nation.

510
00:28:43,325 --> 00:28:45,154
They are your favorite courtiers.

511
00:28:45,155 --> 00:28:47,914
Erkang is also the prince consort chosen by the Tibetan King.

512
00:28:47,915 --> 00:28:51,764
Don't hurt your loved ones on the spur of the moment just like the enemy wants!

513
00:28:51,765 --> 00:28:53,195
Consort Ling!

514
00:28:53,815 --> 00:28:56,684
You've misled him with lies. Shut your mouth!

515
00:28:56,684 --> 00:28:57,914
You should be investigated as well!

516
00:28:57,915 --> 00:28:59,535
Enough!

517
00:28:59,535 --> 00:29:04,527
Guards! Lock Ziwei and Xiao Yanzi in the Imperial Clan Court!

518
00:29:05,846 --> 00:29:09,849
The Fu family shall return to their manor and be judged later.

519
00:29:17,545 --> 00:29:19,574
Royal Father, just behead me!

520
00:29:19,575 --> 00:29:21,245
I don't want my head anymore!

521
00:29:21,245 --> 00:29:24,694
Everything is my fault. I was vain and could not resist temptation.

522
00:29:24,695 --> 00:29:26,844
I deceived you and Ziwei!

523
00:29:26,845 --> 00:29:29,654
But... But what did Ziwei do wrong?

524
00:29:29,655 --> 00:29:32,896
Royal Father!

525
00:29:33,535 --> 00:29:36,375
Royal Father, how can you do this?

526
00:29:36,375 --> 00:29:41,544
Royal Father... Are you sending us to the Imperial Clan Court to behead us?

527
00:29:41,545 --> 00:29:43,684
Royal Father, please wake up!

528
00:29:43,685 --> 00:29:45,964
Wake up! What did Ziwei do wrong?

529
00:29:45,964 --> 00:29:48,454
Is my head not enough?

530
00:29:48,455 --> 00:29:49,234
Guards!

531
00:29:49,235 --> 00:29:50,304
Seize the both of them!

532
00:29:50,305 --> 00:29:51,915
Yes, Your Majesty.

533
00:29:51,915 --> 00:29:56,135
- Royal Father!<br> - Your Majesty!

534
00:29:56,135 --> 00:29:58,135
Royal Father!

535
00:29:58,135 --> 00:29:59,307
Please reconsider this, Your Majesty!

536
00:29:59,308 --> 00:30:01,198
How dare you go against me?

537
00:30:01,755 --> 00:30:05,075
I don't care if you're the Tibetan King's chosen prince consort.

538
00:30:05,075 --> 00:30:09,329
All of you have deceived me. You will all be executed!

539
00:30:09,329 --> 00:30:10,594
Your Majesty.

540
00:30:10,595 --> 00:30:12,851
Lord Fu, Lady Fu,

541
00:30:12,851 --> 00:30:15,541
Erkang, Ertai.

542
00:30:16,215 --> 00:30:19,882
Thank you for taking care of me.

543
00:30:19,882 --> 00:30:24,561
Please take care.

544
00:30:25,662 --> 00:30:29,015
Your Majesty, may I say one more thing?

545
00:30:29,015 --> 00:30:30,751
Speak.

546
00:30:31,445 --> 00:30:36,115
Two days ago, you came to the Shu Fang Zhai Palace.

547
00:30:36,115 --> 00:30:39,985
You said you would reward me for my deeds.

548
00:30:40,705 --> 00:30:46,165
At that time, my request was for you to listen to my story.

549
00:30:48,005 --> 00:30:49,805
I didn't think that

550
00:30:49,805 --> 00:30:54,235
you wouldn't believe in my story.

551
00:30:55,705 --> 00:31:00,805
But the Heaven and Earth

552
00:31:00,805 --> 00:31:03,524
are witnesses to my sincerity for Your Majesty.

553
00:31:03,525 --> 00:31:05,985
My death is no big deal.

554
00:31:07,385 --> 00:31:10,205
My mother will welcome me in Heaven.

555
00:31:10,205 --> 00:31:12,255
I will not be lonely.

556
00:31:13,565 --> 00:31:18,505
But before the dagger was pulled out from me, you promised me.

557
00:31:18,505 --> 00:31:21,865
No matter what Xiao Yanzi has done, you would pardon her from death.

558
00:31:21,865 --> 00:31:23,305
An emperor stands by his words.

559
00:31:23,305 --> 00:31:26,205
There were many witnesses!

560
00:31:26,205 --> 00:31:28,075
Your Majesty.

561
00:31:29,125 --> 00:31:32,425
Kill me,

562
00:31:32,425 --> 00:31:34,945
but please spare Xiao Yanzi.

563
00:31:37,915 --> 00:31:39,784
Young Miss!

564
00:31:39,785 --> 00:31:41,485
What are you saying?

565
00:31:41,485 --> 00:31:45,665
How can you exchange your own life for Xiao Yanzi's?

566
00:31:46,355 --> 00:31:51,455
If Your Majesty must behead someone to vent out his anger,

567
00:31:51,455 --> 00:31:54,515
then behead me!

568
00:31:54,515 --> 00:31:55,749
I'm a maidservant.

569
00:31:55,749 --> 00:31:57,465
I owe the Xia family so much.

570
00:31:57,465 --> 00:31:58,635
Let me die for them!

571
00:31:58,635 --> 00:32:00,945
Behead me!

572
00:32:02,145 --> 00:32:04,712
Please pardon the both of them.

573
00:32:04,712 --> 00:32:06,965
They did not harm anyone.

574
00:32:06,965 --> 00:32:10,015
They just wanted to be Your Majesty's daughter.

575
00:32:10,015 --> 00:32:11,854
Seize Jinsuo as well!

576
00:32:11,855 --> 00:32:13,695
Yes, Your Majesty.

577
00:32:16,395 --> 00:32:17,315
Your Majesty!

578
00:32:17,315 --> 00:32:18,825
Your...

579
00:32:22,525 --> 00:32:24,484
No one is going to behead you.

580
00:32:24,485 --> 00:32:27,125
Don't get ahead of yourselves!

581
00:32:27,125 --> 00:32:29,335
You caused such a big mess.

582
00:32:29,335 --> 00:32:32,045
You may not die, but you will surely receive punishment!

583
00:32:32,045 --> 00:32:35,234
I don't care if your story is fake or true.

584
00:32:35,234 --> 00:32:38,355
It must be investigated and judged by the Imperial Clan Court.

585
00:32:40,615 --> 00:32:44,105
I am no longer willing to judge this by my own intuition.

586
00:32:44,105 --> 00:32:47,085
I'm afraid that my intuition may fail me too.

587
00:32:48,275 --> 00:32:50,763
Speak no more, all of you.

588
00:32:50,763 --> 00:32:53,575
Repent in jail.

589
00:32:54,085 --> 00:32:57,534
- Take them away. <br> - Royal Father!

590
00:32:57,534 --> 00:32:58,894
You will regret this!

591
00:32:58,895 --> 00:33:00,834
Just release Ziwei and Jinsuo!

592
00:33:00,835 --> 00:33:02,694
I dragged them into this!

593
00:33:02,695 --> 00:33:04,284
Royal Father, didn't you say this before?

594
00:33:04,285 --> 00:33:07,034
"We should love all children as if they were our own."

595
00:33:07,035 --> 00:33:09,074
If you can acknowledge other children,

596
00:33:09,075 --> 00:33:10,874
why won't you acknowledge Ziwei?

597
00:33:10,875 --> 00:33:13,575
- Royal Father. <br> - Your Majesty!

598
00:33:13,575 --> 00:33:16,114
Ziwei has your poem and painting.

599
00:33:16,115 --> 00:33:18,699
She shares the same blood as you!

600
00:33:18,699 --> 00:33:22,524
Are you going to let Xia Yuhe cry when she was alive

601
00:33:22,525 --> 00:33:24,625
and still cry even after she has passed away?

602
00:33:24,625 --> 00:33:27,877
Jinsuo! Xiao Yanzi.

603
00:33:29,004 --> 00:33:31,405
Save some energy.

604
00:33:33,122 --> 00:33:36,912
You have me to keep you company. Isn't that good?

605
00:33:39,035 --> 00:33:44,235
We will share our joy and troubles, right?

606
00:33:49,351 --> 00:33:50,999
Your Majesty.

607
00:33:53,264 --> 00:33:58,094
You've always been so prideful.

608
00:34:00,478 --> 00:34:02,348
Have you grown immune

609
00:34:02,895 --> 00:34:06,035
to the most common of familial ties?

610
00:34:11,175 --> 00:34:13,697
- Take them away. Take them all away! <br> - Yes, Your Majesty.

611
00:34:13,697 --> 00:34:20,031
Royal Father!

612
00:34:38,494 --> 00:34:39,674
Let us out!

613
00:34:39,674 --> 00:34:41,073
I don't want to be locked up!

614
00:34:41,074 --> 00:34:42,544
No!

615
00:34:42,544 --> 00:34:45,383
Go tell Royal Father that I have more to say to him!

616
00:34:45,384 --> 00:34:47,474
His Majesty? Forget it!

617
00:34:47,474 --> 00:34:49,833
Since you're in this place, just wait for your death.

618
00:34:49,834 --> 00:34:52,064
You won't ever see His Majesty!

619
00:34:52,064 --> 00:34:53,884
I'm not done yet!

620
00:34:53,884 --> 00:34:56,193
Come back!

621
00:34:56,194 --> 00:35:00,124
How could this be?

622
00:35:00,124 --> 00:35:02,433
I don't believe this. I don't believe this!

623
00:35:02,434 --> 00:35:04,973
- Don't do this, Xiao Yanzi.<br> -Let me out!

624
00:35:04,974 --> 00:35:06,474
I don't believe this!

625
00:35:06,474 --> 00:35:08,054
Don't cry anymore.

626
00:35:08,054 --> 00:35:09,503
Don't be sad.

627
00:35:09,504 --> 00:35:12,043
This is our fate. Just accept it.

628
00:35:12,043 --> 00:35:14,353
I can't accept fate. I won't accept fate!

629
00:35:14,354 --> 00:35:18,113
I don't understand. Why is Royal Father so cruel?

630
00:35:18,114 --> 00:35:22,964
Just because we lied to him, so all our worth is now gone?

631
00:35:28,294 --> 00:35:30,624
It's all my fault.

632
00:35:31,564 --> 00:35:33,924
You all said that today was not the right time

633
00:35:33,924 --> 00:35:36,034
and that I must not say anything.

634
00:35:36,034 --> 00:35:38,014
But I didn't listen.

635
00:35:38,014 --> 00:35:41,824
I rushed and panicked.

636
00:35:42,554 --> 00:35:44,614
I brought harm to you!

637
00:35:45,721 --> 00:35:47,463
I brought harm to Jinsuo too!

638
00:35:47,464 --> 00:35:49,064
It's me!

639
00:35:49,064 --> 00:35:51,694
I was the one who could not stay calm.

640
00:35:51,694 --> 00:35:53,384
I suggested to do it today.

641
00:35:53,384 --> 00:35:56,724
Now, everyone is at the gates of hell!

642
00:35:56,724 --> 00:35:58,654
I should've stopped everyone.

643
00:35:58,654 --> 00:36:01,954
I didn't stop you and even encouraged you!

644
00:36:04,574 --> 00:36:06,874
Let's not cry anymore.

645
00:36:06,874 --> 00:36:09,724
Don't put the blame on yourselves too.

646
00:36:09,754 --> 00:36:12,854
What's meant to be would've happened eventually.

647
00:36:13,634 --> 00:36:15,794
We cannot run from it.

648
00:36:16,254 --> 00:36:17,714
Think about it.

649
00:36:17,714 --> 00:36:23,134
Whether to confess now or later, we had to eventually confess anyway, right?

650
00:36:24,554 --> 00:36:28,784
At least we're locked up together.

651
00:36:28,784 --> 00:36:32,654
We can still talk and be with each other.

652
00:36:34,124 --> 00:36:36,424
If we're to be so unlucky

653
00:36:36,424 --> 00:36:39,154
and have to be beheaded together,

654
00:36:39,154 --> 00:36:43,064
at least we can keep each other company in the afterlife.

655
00:36:44,574 --> 00:36:46,774
Don't be sad anymore.

656
00:36:47,824 --> 00:36:49,634
Come, sit.

657
00:36:59,686 --> 00:37:02,235
There's a cockroach!

658
00:37:03,754 --> 00:37:07,324
When you're unlucky, even cockroaches bully you.

659
00:37:07,324 --> 00:37:09,594
Cockroach!

660
00:37:11,104 --> 00:37:13,274
Rats!

661
00:37:15,424 --> 00:37:19,584
Walking into a room, surrounded by four walls.

662
00:37:19,584 --> 00:37:21,233
Looking up, I see rats.

663
00:37:21,234 --> 00:37:23,734
Looking down, I see cockroaches.

664
00:37:23,734 --> 00:37:26,893
Xiao Yanzi. Who would've known that you were prophesying

665
00:37:26,893 --> 00:37:29,234
when you made this poem.

666
00:37:30,864 --> 00:37:36,334
Only you can make me laugh in a situation like this.

667
00:37:42,034 --> 00:37:47,614
<i>Royal Father, you are so mighty and loving.</i>

668
00:37:47,614 --> 00:37:52,114
<i>Why did you become like this today?</i>

669
00:37:52,114 --> 00:37:54,764
<i>When I first saw you in the hunting grounds,</i>

670
00:37:54,764 --> 00:37:58,684
<i>you seemed like a god to me.</i>

671
00:38:08,654 --> 00:38:10,984
<i>You were so nice to me.</i>

672
00:38:14,684 --> 00:38:16,914
<i>You took me to pray to the Gods.</i>

673
00:38:16,914 --> 00:38:20,024
<i>You fought with Her Majesty because of me.</i>

674
00:38:22,464 --> 00:38:25,034
<i>You even brought me along on your secret patrol.</i>

675
00:38:25,034 --> 00:38:30,414
<i>In my heart, I've always thought of you as my real father.</i>

676
00:38:35,124 --> 00:38:38,324
<i>I still remember when you punished me.</i>

677
00:38:38,324 --> 00:38:40,814
<i>Then, you came to console me.</i>

678
00:38:40,814 --> 00:38:44,384
<i>At the time, I was so touched.</i>

679
00:38:44,384 --> 00:38:46,324
<i>I was so happy that I could die.</i>

680
00:38:46,324 --> 00:38:49,994
<i>No, I don't want to actually die.</i>

681
00:38:55,204 --> 00:38:58,963
<i>Royal Father, after all the time we spent with you,</i>

682
00:38:58,963 --> 00:39:02,124
<i>do you still have the heart to kill Ziwei and me?</i>

683
00:39:07,564 --> 00:39:10,264
<i>[Grand Secretary Manor]</i>

684
00:39:10,944 --> 00:39:12,914
Listen to me, all of you.

685
00:39:12,914 --> 00:39:18,784
In times like these, we must not panic and act recklessly.

686
00:39:18,784 --> 00:39:21,364
Don't rush and don't panic.

687
00:39:21,364 --> 00:39:23,614
Calm down first.

688
00:39:23,614 --> 00:39:26,354
Let's analyze the current situation.

689
00:39:27,954 --> 00:39:33,132
Do you still remember what His Majesty said to Ziwei and Xiao Yanzi?

690
00:39:33,132 --> 00:39:36,404
He said no one is going to behead them.

691
00:39:36,404 --> 00:39:39,990
Now, they may not die,

692
00:39:39,990 --> 00:39:42,180
but they will receive punishment.

693
00:39:42,184 --> 00:39:44,274
In other words,

694
00:39:44,274 --> 00:39:47,484
Ziwei and Xiao Yanzi will not die.

695
00:39:47,484 --> 00:39:48,774
But to be jailed in that place,

696
00:39:48,774 --> 00:39:50,583
even if they don't die, they will be gravely hurt.

697
00:39:50,584 --> 00:39:51,783
That's right!

698
00:39:51,783 --> 00:39:54,353
There is a great deal of souls in the Imperial Clan Court.

699
00:39:54,354 --> 00:39:55,623
You can't even count them!

700
00:39:55,623 --> 00:39:57,104
I just don't understand.

701
00:39:57,104 --> 00:40:01,134
Why did His Majesty lock them all up without getting things straight?

702
00:40:01,134 --> 00:40:03,044
After so much time together

703
00:40:03,044 --> 00:40:05,384
and such sacrifice in a life and death situation,

704
00:40:05,384 --> 00:40:08,174
is it still not enough to make up for a small mistake?

705
00:40:08,174 --> 00:40:11,364
That is not a small mistake.

706
00:40:11,364 --> 00:40:16,014
Pretending to be a princess is a capital offense.

707
00:40:16,014 --> 00:40:18,876
We all know that very well.

708
00:40:18,876 --> 00:40:23,324
That is why we hesitated between confessing and not confessing.

709
00:40:24,014 --> 00:40:27,624
Furthermore, you all caused a ruckus today.

710
00:40:27,624 --> 00:40:31,213
The Tibetan King and the princess were present,

711
00:40:31,214 --> 00:40:33,614
Her Majesty was present.

712
00:40:33,614 --> 00:40:36,264
You really chose

713
00:40:36,264 --> 00:40:39,964
the absolute worst timing.

714
00:40:39,964 --> 00:40:42,199
Even if His Majesty wanted to protect you,

715
00:40:42,199 --> 00:40:46,199
Her Majesty was stating arguments and everything she said was valid.

716
00:40:46,199 --> 00:40:48,488
In front of his many concubines,

717
00:40:48,489 --> 00:40:51,009
it's difficult for His Majesty to bend the rules.

718
00:40:51,009 --> 00:40:53,958
The truth is His Majesty still stood on our side.

719
00:40:53,958 --> 00:40:55,728
He did not lock all of us up.

720
00:40:55,728 --> 00:40:57,618
That itself is already showing mercy.

721
00:40:57,619 --> 00:41:02,258
That's right. So, we should not panic.

722
00:41:03,169 --> 00:41:06,438
I think His Majesty just wanted to silence the empress

723
00:41:06,439 --> 00:41:08,949
and reassure the concubines' doubts.

724
00:41:08,949 --> 00:41:11,819
He must show that he is punishing them.

725
00:41:11,819 --> 00:41:16,048
Lock them up for a day or two and then pretend to judge them.

726
00:41:16,049 --> 00:41:18,949
Then, they can be released.

727
00:41:18,949 --> 00:41:20,421
Think about it.

728
00:41:20,421 --> 00:41:23,078
His Majesty likes Ziwei and Xiao Yanzi so much,

729
00:41:23,079 --> 00:41:25,779
how could he bear to let them die?

730
00:41:25,779 --> 00:41:28,763
His Majesty has a soft heart too.

731
00:41:28,763 --> 00:41:31,498
Even if His Majesty is just pretending, what about Her Majesty?

732
00:41:31,499 --> 00:41:34,138
This is a very rare opportunity. Will she let it go?

733
00:41:34,139 --> 00:41:36,428
Will she easily let His Majesty put on an act

734
00:41:36,429 --> 00:41:39,729
and allow Ziwei and Xiao Yanzi overpower her again?

735
00:41:41,152 --> 00:41:42,722
You must help me.

736
00:41:42,722 --> 00:41:44,899
I must rescue Xiao Yanzi.

737
00:41:44,899 --> 00:41:47,829
In this case, Ziwei still has hope.

738
00:41:47,829 --> 00:41:51,369
But Xiao Yanzi has no hope anymore!

739
00:41:51,369 --> 00:41:55,389
Prince Yongqi, with your identity, it's best if you stay out of this.

740
00:41:55,389 --> 00:41:58,049
How can I stay out of this?

741
00:41:58,049 --> 00:42:00,079
Erkang once said something

742
00:42:00,079 --> 00:42:02,539
that I remember very clearly.

743
00:42:02,539 --> 00:42:05,609
He said, "For Ziwei's sake,

744
00:42:05,609 --> 00:42:09,863
he can abandon his fame, fortune, future, and status."

745
00:42:09,863 --> 00:42:13,364
For me, it's the same.

746
00:42:30,579 --> 00:42:34,948
Your Majesty, if you feel angry, just say it.

747
00:42:34,948 --> 00:42:37,182
Don't keep it inside.

748
00:42:37,688 --> 00:42:39,548
Consort Ling!

749
00:42:40,059 --> 00:42:42,098
I trusted you so much.

750
00:42:42,099 --> 00:42:46,930
Among all the concubines, I treated you like my true friend.

751
00:42:47,390 --> 00:42:49,568
Even when the empress was doubtful about you,

752
00:42:49,569 --> 00:42:53,098
I always protected you all I could!

753
00:42:53,099 --> 00:42:56,959
Yet, you conspired with the Fu family to deceive me like this?

754
00:42:56,959 --> 00:42:59,734
You made such a joke out of me!

755
00:42:59,734 --> 00:43:02,808
In the future, how will you present yourself among the concubines?

756
00:43:02,809 --> 00:43:04,448
How will you explain yourself?

757
00:43:04,449 --> 00:43:07,389
Your Majesty, you have wronged me.

758
00:43:07,389 --> 00:43:10,619
I swear it was only today

759
00:43:10,619 --> 00:43:13,028
that I found out that Princess Pearl is a fake.

760
00:43:13,029 --> 00:43:14,968
If I knew about this before,

761
00:43:14,969 --> 00:43:18,949
I wouldn't ever have dared lie to Your Majesty.

762
00:43:18,949 --> 00:43:20,469
How dare you deny it?

763
00:43:20,469 --> 00:43:23,699
Didn't you bring Ziwei and Jinsuo into the palace?

764
00:43:23,699 --> 00:43:24,608
Your Majesty.

765
00:43:24,609 --> 00:43:27,609
I did bring Ziwei and Jinsuo into the palace,

766
00:43:27,609 --> 00:43:30,938
but I am the same as you. I knew nothing about it.

767
00:43:30,938 --> 00:43:33,258
I just thought that I was doing Xiao Yanzi a favor,

768
00:43:33,259 --> 00:43:37,189
allowing her sworn sister to keep her company in the palace.

769
00:43:37,189 --> 00:43:42,009
My motives were purely innocent.

770
00:43:42,009 --> 00:43:43,189
Your Majesty.

771
00:43:43,189 --> 00:43:44,338
Motive?

772
00:43:44,339 --> 00:43:46,398
Now, all of you are talking about your motives!

773
00:43:46,398 --> 00:43:48,428
You say it as if all of your motives were kind,

774
00:43:48,429 --> 00:43:51,668
not wrong, and understandable!

775
00:43:51,668 --> 00:43:55,791
Yet, you have all put me in a difficult position.

776
00:44:00,209 --> 00:44:03,945
The two girls are only 18 or 19 years old.

777
00:44:03,945 --> 00:44:08,198
No matter who is true or fake, or if they're both fake,

778
00:44:08,198 --> 00:44:10,888
they have deceived my feelings and my trust.

779
00:44:10,889 --> 00:44:13,515
They made a fool out of me.

780
00:44:13,515 --> 00:44:16,259
They deceived me so badly.

781
00:44:18,359 --> 00:44:20,981
How dare they deceive me like that?

782
00:44:20,982 --> 00:44:23,182
They deceived me again and again!

783
00:44:23,182 --> 00:44:25,069
What's most despicable is that

784
00:44:25,069 --> 00:44:27,369
one of them seemed so naive and innocent,

785
00:44:27,369 --> 00:44:30,519
while the other seemed as pure as the driven snow.

786
00:44:31,309 --> 00:44:35,039
But they actually live a messy life and lead men on as they go!

787
00:44:37,149 --> 00:44:39,749
The empress is right.

788
00:44:39,749 --> 00:44:43,149
I cannot do things based on my emotions anymore.

789
00:44:43,149 --> 00:44:45,387
If I don't punish them,

790
00:44:45,387 --> 00:44:48,792
I just can't relieve the hatred in my heart.

791
00:44:49,989 --> 00:44:54,038
Let them have a taste of being princesses in the Imperial Clan Court!

792
