that you already chose the song
when I returned.

I suppose we wouldn't get to enjoy
a performance like Phoenix Hairpin.

172

It's all thanks to
Mother's excellent arrangement.

196
00:08:45,583 --> 00:08:46,893
Caiyun Troupe does live up to its name.

197
00:08:46,943 --> 00:08:47,853
That was superb!

198
00:08:48,223 --> 00:08:49,853
Madam Yi, Yan is missing!

199
00:08:49,943 --> 00:08:50,343
It was great.

200
00:08:50,423 --> 00:08:51,423
That was an excellent performance.

201
00:08:54,943 --> 00:08:55,983
How could she be missing?

202
00:08:56,343 --> 00:08:56,853
Wasn't she with you

203
00:08:56,853 --> 00:08:57,583
all the time?

204
00:08:57,733 --> 00:08:59,063
I was buying some osmanthus cake.

205
00:08:59,133 --> 00:09:00,343
She went missing when I turned around.

206
00:09:01,063 --> 00:09:02,103
The streets are crowded tonight.

207
00:09:02,253 --> 00:09:03,613
Nothing must happen to her.

208
00:09:04,253 --> 00:09:04,823
Madam Yi.

209
00:09:04,943 --> 00:09:05,853
Commandant Xie.

210
00:09:06,253 --> 00:09:07,423
What happened? Why the rush?

211
00:09:07,583 --> 00:09:08,493
Yan is missing.

212
00:09:08,733 --> 00:09:09,943
Can you help us to look for her?

213
00:09:10,103 --> 00:09:10,703
Calm down.

214
00:09:10,983 --> 00:09:12,583
How about this?
Let's split up and look for her.

215
00:09:13,013 --> 00:09:14,103
All right. Thank you.

216
00:09:14,533 --> 00:09:15,773
Zhu, search that area.

217
00:09:15,853 --> 00:09:16,533
I'll search there.

218
00:09:45,983 --> 00:09:46,773
Mr. Yu.

219
00:09:48,343 --> 00:09:49,733
Why are you observing
the performance from here?

220
00:09:51,183 --> 00:09:52,773
The view here is amazing.

221
00:09:54,733 --> 00:09:56,773
The groom on the boat

222
00:09:57,893 --> 00:09:59,133
resembled you.

223
00:10:02,423 --> 00:10:02,893
Is that so?

224
00:10:06,703 --> 00:10:08,223
Both of us have two eyes, a nose,

225
00:10:08,223 --> 00:10:09,253
and a mask.

226
00:10:10,343 --> 00:10:11,063
That's why we look alike.

227
00:10:17,893 --> 00:10:18,613
What is this?

228
00:10:26,703 --> 00:10:27,703
When I just came back,

229
00:10:27,703 --> 00:10:29,373
Mr. Meng said he was sick.

230
00:10:29,373 --> 00:10:31,253
He requested me

231
00:10:31,343 --> 00:10:33,063
to perform on his behalf.

232
00:10:33,343 --> 00:10:33,893
You didn't need

233
00:10:33,893 --> 00:10:35,493
to expose me like that.

234
00:10:38,133 --> 00:10:38,983
Is that so?

235
00:10:46,263 --> 00:10:47,853
I insisted on doing it.

236
00:10:50,373 --> 00:10:51,423
But why?

237
00:10:51,863 --> 00:10:52,493
It's because I don't want you

238
00:10:52,493 --> 00:10:53,373
to be married to someone else.

239
00:10:54,823 --> 00:10:56,373
What? I couldn't hear you.

240
00:11:02,033 --> 00:11:03,013
It's because I don't want you

241
00:11:03,013 --> 00:11:03,983
to be married to someone else,

242
00:11:03,983 --> 00:11:05,063
even if it's an act.

243
00:11:31,583 --> 00:11:32,653
Madam, we're in trouble.

244
00:11:33,203 --> 00:11:34,183
Feiniang had sprained her ankle.

245
00:11:35,223 --> 00:11:35,773
What?

246
00:11:36,233 --> 00:11:37,493
Miss Fei, are you okay?

247
00:11:37,773 --> 00:11:38,823
What should we do?

248
00:11:38,863 --> 00:11:39,983
The performance will begin soon.

249
00:11:40,633 --> 00:11:41,423
Here, sit down.

250
00:11:41,733 --> 00:11:43,303
Our priority tonight

251
00:11:43,403 --> 00:11:44,223
is the Water Festival.

252
00:11:44,613 --> 00:11:46,063
But the ceremonial dance,
the most important part,

253
00:11:46,133 --> 00:11:47,103
is now impossible.

254
00:11:47,343 --> 00:11:48,533
The Zhu family

255
00:11:48,733 --> 00:11:49,853
is utterly embarrassed!

256
00:11:51,103 --> 00:11:53,133
You're something else!

257
00:11:53,253 --> 00:11:54,463
You knew that you had to perform,

258
00:11:54,463 --> 00:11:55,703
yet you were still careless.

259
00:11:56,103 --> 00:11:56,583
Where's Yi?

260
00:11:57,533 --> 00:11:58,463
Where did she go?

261
00:11:59,133 --> 00:11:59,983
Madam,

262
00:12:00,223 --> 00:12:00,983
we've searched

263
00:12:00,983 --> 00:12:02,343
the entire Yunshui House.

264
00:12:02,493 --> 00:12:04,103
We never saw Madam Yi.

265
00:12:04,533 --> 00:12:06,133
She must be trying to avoid me.

266
00:12:06,423 --> 00:12:07,533
She wants me

267
00:12:07,823 --> 00:12:09,063
to clean up her mess.

268
00:12:09,343 --> 00:12:10,373
Where did Yi go?

269
00:12:10,983 --> 00:12:12,183
She cares about
the Water Festival the most.

270
00:12:12,463 --> 00:12:13,773
She wouldn't leave
without any valid reasons.

271
00:12:14,373 --> 00:12:15,533
What exactly happened?

272
00:12:15,773 --> 00:12:17,303
Yan?

273
00:12:18,103 --> 00:12:18,583
Madam.

274
00:12:18,733 --> 00:12:19,703
Have you seen a girl around?

275
00:12:19,733 --> 00:12:20,613
Have you?

276
00:12:21,063 --> 00:12:21,703
No.

277
00:12:22,183 --> 00:12:22,853
Yan!

278
00:12:23,343 --> 00:12:24,773
Have you seen a girl around?

279
00:12:24,943 --> 00:12:25,493
No, I haven't.

280
00:12:25,533 --> 00:12:26,183
Miss Fei,

281
00:12:26,773 --> 00:12:27,823
is there anyone in the troupe

282
00:12:28,303 --> 00:12:29,493
who can replace you?

283
00:12:29,943 --> 00:12:31,133
The ceremonial dance is very difficult.

284
00:12:31,653 --> 00:12:33,253
No one in the troupe can replace me.

285
00:12:35,823 --> 00:12:37,423
By chance, I learned some dances

286
00:12:37,493 --> 00:12:38,493
in my childhood.

287
00:12:38,823 --> 00:12:39,653
All this while, I've been serving

288
00:12:39,733 --> 00:12:41,183
the troupe in Yunshui House.

289
00:12:41,303 --> 00:12:42,373
I saw Miss Fei's dance before.

290
00:12:42,533 --> 00:12:43,343
I may give it a try.

291
00:12:52,183 --> 00:12:53,423
Excellent.

292
00:12:53,423 --> 00:12:54,773
What do you think? Isn't it nice?

293
00:12:55,823 --> 00:12:56,343
It's pretty good.

294
00:13:02,613 --> 00:13:04,133
First, Yanniang got an allergy.

295
00:13:04,303 --> 00:13:05,853
After that, Miss Fei sprained her ankle.

296
00:13:05,983 --> 00:13:07,653
Coincidentally, she can perform
the ceremonial dance.

297
00:13:08,373 --> 00:13:10,133
I don't believe
that all of these are mere coincidences.

298
00:13:10,653 --> 00:13:11,653
Miss Fei said

299
00:13:12,463 --> 00:13:14,583
Chinese yam extract triggers her asthma.

300
00:13:14,983 --> 00:13:17,103
Once she suffers a relapse,
she'll lose all strength.

301
00:13:17,983 --> 00:13:19,013
Therefore, Qing'er's

302
00:13:19,013 --> 00:13:19,773
initial target

303
00:13:19,773 --> 00:13:20,653
was Miss Fei.

304
00:13:21,103 --> 00:13:23,013
Yanniang just applied the lip balm

305
00:13:23,223 --> 00:13:24,493
with Chinese yam extract by accident.

306
00:13:24,893 --> 00:13:25,943
I never expected her

307
00:13:26,423 --> 00:13:28,103
to catch hold of this opportunity.

308
00:13:28,733 --> 00:13:30,303
First, she made your sister
commit a mistake.

309
00:13:30,463 --> 00:13:31,733
After that, she came to the rescue.

310
00:13:32,703 --> 00:13:34,653
With this opportunity, she could
show herself to the Zhu family.

311
00:13:35,983 --> 00:13:38,423
That Qing'er is no simpleton.

312
00:13:38,983 --> 00:13:39,823
We have no time to waste.

313
00:13:40,893 --> 00:13:41,893
I'll go find Yi.

314
00:13:42,133 --> 00:13:43,223
Keep an eye on Qing'er.

315
00:13:43,373 --> 00:13:44,303
Let's split up and act.

316
00:13:44,773 --> 00:13:45,533
Be careful.

317
00:13:49,343 --> 00:13:49,983
Yan!

318
00:13:50,733 --> 00:13:51,583
Yinlou!

319
00:13:52,103 --> 00:13:52,583
Miss Jiang.

320
00:13:53,303 --> 00:13:54,373
Have you seen Yi around?

321
00:13:55,703 --> 00:13:56,893
She thought Yan had gone missing.

322
00:13:57,013 --> 00:13:58,133
She should be searching for her.

323
00:13:58,983 --> 00:14:00,983
Yan, who were you with?

324
00:14:01,103 --> 00:14:02,133
How did you get lost?

325
00:14:02,583 --> 00:14:03,433
That's not it.

326
00:14:03,463 --> 00:14:05,013
[Yan, Jiang Yi's daughter]
I fell asleep.

327
00:14:05,533 --> 00:14:07,983
I only saw Uncle Xie when I woke up.

328
00:14:09,063 --> 00:14:09,533
Seems like Yan

329
00:14:09,533 --> 00:14:10,423
didn't get lost on her own.

330
00:14:10,653 --> 00:14:12,013
Someone must've
taken her away on purpose.

331
00:14:12,773 --> 00:14:13,613
But why?

332
00:14:17,253 --> 00:14:17,983
I know now.

333
00:14:18,823 --> 00:14:20,253
They did so to lure my sister away.

334
00:14:21,373 --> 00:14:22,423
Let's split up

335
00:14:22,533 --> 00:14:23,303
and find them as soon as possible.

336
00:14:23,463 --> 00:14:23,773
Okay.

337
00:14:24,253 --> 00:14:25,183
Take her with you.

338
00:14:25,303 --> 00:14:26,013
Okay.

339
00:14:26,373 --> 00:14:27,373
Yan, be a good girl.

340
00:14:29,893 --> 00:14:30,303
Let's go.

341
00:14:43,773 --> 00:14:44,373
Yi?

342
00:14:45,303 --> 00:14:46,013
Yi!

343
00:14:47,853 --> 00:14:49,013
Feiniang can't perform now.

344
00:14:49,223 --> 00:14:50,343
Since Qing'er has already
achieved her goal,

345
00:14:50,703 --> 00:14:51,703
what's the point

346
00:14:52,013 --> 00:14:53,103
of luring Yi away?

347
00:14:55,823 --> 00:15:00,013
Great!

348
00:15:06,773 --> 00:15:07,373
You wretch!

349
00:15:10,133 --> 00:15:11,183
How could you be this careless?

350
00:15:12,893 --> 00:15:13,493
Mother.

351
00:15:14,133 --> 00:15:14,893
Let me take you to the room.

352
00:15:18,013 --> 00:15:18,613
Yan?

353
00:15:28,493 --> 00:15:29,303
Yan?

354
00:15:37,983 --> 00:15:38,653
Yi?

355
00:16:17,613 --> 00:16:19,343
Yi?

356
00:16:20,183 --> 00:16:20,893
Wake up.

357
00:16:22,833 --> 00:16:23,613
Where's Yan?

358
00:16:24,183 --> 00:16:24,943
Where's Yan?

359
00:16:24,983 --> 00:16:25,703
Yan is fine.

360
00:16:26,133 --> 00:16:26,733
Don't worry.

361
00:16:34,983 --> 00:16:36,773
Yi, what happened?

362
00:16:37,063 --> 00:16:38,253
Yi's asthma was acting up.

363
00:16:38,343 --> 00:16:39,943
I brought her here to rest.

364
00:16:40,133 --> 00:16:41,063
Asthma?

365
00:16:41,423 --> 00:16:42,223
Useless.

366
00:16:42,733 --> 00:16:44,013
Of all the times

367
00:16:44,133 --> 00:16:45,303
to suffer a relapse.

368
00:16:48,223 --> 00:16:49,013
I'll hire a physician

369
00:16:49,013 --> 00:16:49,893
to check on her.

370
00:16:50,253 --> 00:16:51,653
Mother, there's no rush
for you to get changed.

371
00:16:52,253 --> 00:16:52,943
Let's take Yi back

372
00:16:52,943 --> 00:16:53,703
to the mansion for now.

373
00:16:53,983 --> 00:16:54,533
Why?

374
00:16:55,133 --> 00:16:56,823
Are you heartbroken
just because she's coughing?

375
00:16:57,773 --> 00:16:59,053
Do you know how old I am?

376
00:16:59,493 --> 00:17:01,253
Don't you think I'll catch a cold

377
00:17:01,383 --> 00:17:02,663
if I don't change
out of these wet clothes?

378
00:17:02,983 --> 00:17:03,423
Go.

379
00:17:03,533 --> 00:17:03,983
Bring me

380
00:17:03,983 --> 00:17:05,013
my outfit.

381
00:17:05,142 --> 00:17:05,533
Yes, Madam.

382
00:17:23,733 --> 00:17:24,142
Why...

383
00:17:24,223 --> 00:17:25,333
Why is there a man over here?

384
00:17:29,333 --> 00:17:30,183
Mr. Meng?

385
00:17:34,773 --> 00:17:35,943
Close the door.

386
00:17:36,773 --> 00:17:38,423
Do not let anyone in.

387
00:17:38,903 --> 00:17:39,333
Go!

388
00:17:39,463 --> 00:17:39,863
Yes, Madam Zhu.

389
00:17:44,223 --> 00:17:44,983
Close the door.

390
00:17:45,253 --> 00:17:46,423
Do not let anyone in.

391
00:17:48,493 --> 00:17:49,053
Yi.

392
00:17:49,903 --> 00:17:51,143
What exactly is going on?

393
00:17:53,773 --> 00:17:54,663
What is he doing here?

394
00:17:55,183 --> 00:17:56,053
You wretch.

395
00:17:57,333 --> 00:17:57,983
How dare you

396
00:17:58,013 --> 00:17:59,663
have an affair with a troupe member?

397
00:17:59,943 --> 00:18:00,943
You even told your sister

398
00:18:00,943 --> 00:18:01,903
to cover up for you.

399
00:18:02,573 --> 00:18:03,813
Mother, that's not true.

400
00:18:04,223 --> 00:18:05,423
I came here to find Yan.

401
00:18:05,983 --> 00:18:06,533
I have no idea

402
00:18:06,533 --> 00:18:07,813
why he's here either.

403
00:18:08,733 --> 00:18:10,573
Dear, trust me.

404
00:18:11,053 --> 00:18:12,223
Trust you?

405
00:18:13,293 --> 00:18:14,293
Your lover is already here.

406
00:18:14,983 --> 00:18:16,293
We already caught you red-handed.

407
00:18:17,053 --> 00:18:18,253
How dare you still deny it?

408
00:18:18,573 --> 00:18:19,463
I'll kill you!

409
00:18:19,623 --> 00:18:20,183
Madam Zhu!

410
00:18:20,223 --> 00:18:20,623
You...

411
00:18:20,813 --> 00:18:21,903
What do you mean by this?

412
00:18:21,983 --> 00:18:22,983
What do I mean?

413
00:18:23,773 --> 00:18:24,333
Ziyu,

414
00:18:24,813 --> 00:18:26,093
you have

415
00:18:26,093 --> 00:18:27,293
to get to the bottom of this.

416
00:18:27,663 --> 00:18:28,253
If you

417
00:18:28,253 --> 00:18:28,983
malign my sister

418
00:18:28,983 --> 00:18:29,983
without finding out the truth,

419
00:18:30,183 --> 00:18:31,293
you'll be embarrassed as well.

420
00:18:31,463 --> 00:18:33,423
There are only three people in the room.

421
00:18:36,493 --> 00:18:37,383
You're saying it's not Yi, huh?

422
00:18:38,183 --> 00:18:39,223
Could it be you, then?

423
00:18:39,423 --> 00:18:40,813
This has nothing to do with Si.

424
00:18:41,223 --> 00:18:42,573
It has nothing to do with her?

425
00:18:43,053 --> 00:18:44,383
Did you say you were maligned?

426
00:18:45,423 --> 00:18:46,903
Are you saying that a grown man like him

427
00:18:47,143 --> 00:18:48,333
entered the room by himself?

428
00:18:48,943 --> 00:18:49,573
It was me.

429
00:18:53,663 --> 00:18:54,663
I was the one meeting him in private.

430
00:18:55,013 --> 00:18:55,983
It has nothing to do with them.

431
00:18:59,143 --> 00:19:00,383
Meng and I were supposed
to meet in private.

432
00:19:00,623 --> 00:19:01,663
We didn't want Madam Yi

433
00:19:01,663 --> 00:19:02,903
and Miss Si to bump into us.

434
00:19:03,223 --> 00:19:04,223
Meng panicked.

435
00:19:04,663 --> 00:19:05,983
He fell unconscious
after falling off the bed by accident.

436
00:19:06,863 --> 00:19:07,903
I begged them

437
00:19:07,943 --> 00:19:08,733
to hide the truth for me.

438
00:19:09,333 --> 00:19:10,943
That's why
the misunderstanding occurred.

439
00:19:11,463 --> 00:19:12,493
I'm truly sorry.

440
00:19:22,943 --> 00:19:23,493
Yi.

441
00:19:25,053 --> 00:19:26,423
I panicked just now.

442
00:19:27,623 --> 00:19:28,813
I blamed you

443
00:19:28,863 --> 00:19:29,863
before I figured out the whole story.

444
00:19:35,053 --> 00:19:36,383
When Mr. Meng wakes up,

445
00:19:37,463 --> 00:19:38,623
I'm going to get the truth out of him.

446
00:19:41,013 --> 00:19:41,943
And then, I'll clear your name.

447
00:19:43,733 --> 00:19:45,013
So, you still don't trust me, huh?

448
00:20:13,813 --> 00:20:14,493
Miss Qing'er.

449
00:20:15,573 --> 00:20:16,623
Where are you going?

450
00:20:36,423 --> 00:20:37,093
Madam Zhu?

451
00:20:38,703 --> 00:20:39,183
Mr. Zhu.

452
00:20:39,863 --> 00:20:40,773
Mr. Meng.

453
00:20:42,253 --> 00:20:43,733
Be honest with us

454
00:20:44,293 --> 00:20:45,663
and tell us who you were supposed

455
00:20:45,663 --> 00:20:46,623
to meet in private.

456
00:20:47,253 --> 00:20:48,293
If you dare to lie,

457
00:20:49,013 --> 00:20:50,013
the Zhu family

458
00:20:50,573 --> 00:20:52,293
will make you
bite off more than you can chew.

459
00:20:57,493 --> 00:20:58,493
It was Madam Yi.

460
00:21:04,623 --> 00:21:05,703
How could it be me?

461
00:21:07,013 --> 00:21:08,533
I haven't even spoken to you before.

462
00:21:08,863 --> 00:21:09,903
Madam Yi sent her maid

463
00:21:09,943 --> 00:21:10,623
to notify me.

464
00:21:10,773 --> 00:21:11,943
She said that she had admired me
for a long time.

465
00:21:12,423 --> 00:21:13,733
She said she would kick Caiyun Troupe

466
00:21:14,093 --> 00:21:14,903
out of Lingshui

467
00:21:15,093 --> 00:21:16,183
if I didn't meet her here.

468
00:21:16,253 --> 00:21:17,463
That's nonsense.

469
00:21:17,773 --> 00:21:19,223
Since when did I admire you?

470
00:21:19,733 --> 00:21:21,623
Why are you trying to frame me?

471
00:21:22,333 --> 00:21:22,863
Yi.

472
00:21:23,333 --> 00:21:24,053
Let me ask you this.

473
00:21:24,623 --> 00:21:25,733
You said Yi sent her maid

474
00:21:26,293 --> 00:21:27,733
to notify you, right?

475
00:21:28,733 --> 00:21:31,183
Was it Qing'er?

476
00:21:31,493 --> 00:21:32,253
Miss, why are you asking me

477
00:21:32,703 --> 00:21:33,383
when you know the answer?

478
00:21:33,383 --> 00:21:34,143
Nonsense!

479
00:21:34,983 --> 00:21:36,383
Qing'er just joined
the family not long ago.

480
00:21:36,733 --> 00:21:37,573
If Yi truly wanted

481
00:21:37,573 --> 00:21:38,703
to do something discreet as such,

482
00:21:38,863 --> 00:21:40,383
she'd send someone she could trust.

483
00:21:40,733 --> 00:21:41,903
Why would she send Qing'er?

484
00:21:42,383 --> 00:21:43,143
It was Qing'er.

485
00:21:44,773 --> 00:21:45,733
She framed me.

486
00:21:49,053 --> 00:21:49,983
She lured me here

487
00:21:50,253 --> 00:21:51,383
using Yan.

488
00:21:52,093 --> 00:21:53,053
Yan is over there.

489
00:21:53,093 --> 00:21:53,573
Where?

490
00:21:53,733 --> 00:21:54,333
Follow me.

491
00:21:59,983 --> 00:22:01,533
Madam Yi, Yan is inside.

492
00:22:07,773 --> 00:22:08,423
Feiniang.

493
00:22:09,903 --> 00:22:10,623
You said

494
00:22:11,053 --> 00:22:12,813
you came here to meet him in private.

495
00:22:14,143 --> 00:22:15,143
But he said

496
00:22:15,463 --> 00:22:17,463
he came here to meet Jiang Yi.

497
00:22:18,773 --> 00:22:19,943
Who exactly is it?

498
00:22:20,663 --> 00:22:22,813
Someone. Bring Qing'er here.

499
00:22:24,703 --> 00:22:25,383
Yi.

500
00:22:26,983 --> 00:22:28,463
How can I trust you now?

501
00:22:31,013 --> 00:22:32,493
We've been married for many years.

502
00:22:33,423 --> 00:22:34,093
Everyone in Lingshui

503
00:22:34,093 --> 00:22:35,813
knows how well I treat you.

504
00:22:37,293 --> 00:22:38,863
Each of you is sticking
to your own version of the story.

505
00:22:40,623 --> 00:22:41,903
We can only wait for Qing'er's arrival

506
00:22:42,463 --> 00:22:43,533
to prove your innocence

507
00:22:45,093 --> 00:22:48,143
and locate the culprit
who tried to harm you.

508
00:22:48,773 --> 00:22:49,293
Open the door.

509
00:22:51,183 --> 00:22:51,773
Go inside.

510
00:22:57,143 --> 00:22:58,293
Madam Yi instructed me

511
00:22:58,333 --> 00:22:59,663
to send a letter to Mr. Meng.

512
00:23:00,053 --> 00:23:01,013
She said
I wouldn't arouse any suspicions

513
00:23:01,013 --> 00:23:02,253
since I was new to the family.

514
00:23:02,533 --> 00:23:03,463
She said she would send me

515
00:23:03,493 --> 00:23:04,903
to Ling'an after tonight.

516
00:23:05,053 --> 00:23:07,053
Ling'an is way better than Lingshui.

517
00:23:07,703 --> 00:23:09,943
Qing'er, what are you saying?

518
00:23:10,493 --> 00:23:12,293
I should've heeded
Si's advice back then.

519
00:23:12,623 --> 00:23:14,013
I shouldn't have taken you in.

520
00:23:14,463 --> 00:23:16,013
I never expected you to be this devious

521
00:23:16,383 --> 00:23:18,053
when you're this young.

522
00:23:18,333 --> 00:23:19,333
Madam Yi.

523
00:23:19,493 --> 00:23:21,333
I know that I'm indebted to you.

524
00:23:21,623 --> 00:23:22,383
But this is a huge deal.

525
00:23:22,383 --> 00:23:24,333
I cannot hide the truth.

526
00:23:24,573 --> 00:23:26,223
Mr. Zhu, Madam Zhu,

527
00:23:26,333 --> 00:23:27,383
just now, I was performing

528
00:23:27,423 --> 00:23:28,183
on Miss Fei's behalf.

529
00:23:28,223 --> 00:23:29,253
Everyone witnessed it.

530
00:23:29,293 --> 00:23:30,013
How could I possibly

531
00:23:30,013 --> 00:23:31,223
bring Madam Yi here?

532
00:23:31,533 --> 00:23:32,293
That's right.

533
00:23:33,093 --> 00:23:34,293
She was dancing

534
00:23:34,493 --> 00:23:35,423
when I left my seat.

535
00:23:35,813 --> 00:23:36,773
How could it be her?

536
00:23:38,293 --> 00:23:38,903
Jiang Yi,

537
00:23:39,703 --> 00:23:41,293
you shameless wretch.

538
00:23:41,773 --> 00:23:42,493
To think that I believed you

539
00:23:42,493 --> 00:23:43,533
to be a rule-abiding person

540
00:23:43,663 --> 00:23:45,333
and that you would never
do such a despicable deed.

541
00:23:46,253 --> 00:23:47,903
I was truly blind.

542
00:23:48,533 --> 00:23:49,423
Since it has come to this,

543
00:23:49,903 --> 00:23:51,053
what else do you
have to say for yourself?

544
00:23:51,943 --> 00:23:53,383
You've ruined the reputation

545
00:23:53,623 --> 00:23:54,983
of the Zhu family!

546
00:23:55,053 --> 00:23:55,663
Mother!

547
00:23:56,463 --> 00:23:57,463
That's not true!

548
00:23:57,463 --> 00:23:58,333
You must trust me!

549
00:23:58,333 --> 00:23:59,253
I didn't do it!

550
00:24:03,143 --> 00:24:03,573
Be careful.

551
00:24:06,093 --> 00:24:06,773
Qing'er,

552
00:24:07,253 --> 00:24:08,143
although I don't know

553
00:24:08,143 --> 00:24:09,573
how you misdirected us,

554
00:24:10,143 --> 00:24:10,983
you have to remember this.

555
00:24:11,573 --> 00:24:12,983
If you ruin my sister's reputation,

556
00:24:13,333 --> 00:24:14,623
it'll ruin her life.

557
00:24:15,253 --> 00:24:16,223
You should know fully well

558
00:24:16,223 --> 00:24:17,333
how nice my sister treated you.

559
00:24:17,943 --> 00:24:19,533
If you still have a conscience,

560
00:24:19,663 --> 00:24:20,463
you should tell us

561
00:24:20,463 --> 00:24:21,493
the truth.

562
00:24:22,143 --> 00:24:23,813
If you still dare to tell blatant lies

563
00:24:23,863 --> 00:24:24,623
and slander her,

564
00:24:25,053 --> 00:24:26,223
I'll report you to the authorities.

565
00:24:26,943 --> 00:24:28,223
If the authorities in Lingshui
cannot handle it,

566
00:24:28,493 --> 00:24:29,863
I'll report you to Ling'an City.

567
00:24:29,943 --> 00:24:30,533
What?

568
00:24:31,383 --> 00:24:32,383
Your sister has already committed

569
00:24:32,383 --> 00:24:33,463
such a shameful deed.

570
00:24:33,573 --> 00:24:34,773
You intend to report her
to the authorities?

571
00:24:35,053 --> 00:24:36,093
Have you lost your mind?

572
00:24:37,183 --> 00:24:37,773
Madam Zhu,

573
00:24:38,383 --> 00:24:39,573
Yi already said

574
00:24:40,093 --> 00:24:41,223
that she didn't do it.

575
00:24:41,423 --> 00:24:43,223
That means she didn't.
Don't you understand?

576
00:24:43,333 --> 00:24:43,733
You...

577
00:24:44,813 --> 00:24:45,573
Miss Si.

578
00:24:46,703 --> 00:24:47,773
Do you need to resort to this?

579
00:24:49,093 --> 00:24:49,773
Well...

580
00:24:51,183 --> 00:24:52,623
No matter what Yi has done,

581
00:24:53,703 --> 00:24:55,143
she'll always be Yan's mother.

582
00:24:55,863 --> 00:24:56,773
She's my wife.

583
00:24:58,053 --> 00:24:58,493
Let's settle this

584
00:24:58,493 --> 00:24:59,703
behind closed doors.

585
00:25:00,943 --> 00:25:01,663
Don't spread the word.

586
00:25:01,733 --> 00:25:02,623
Seriously?

587
00:25:03,223 --> 00:25:04,903
Ziyu, listen.

588
00:25:05,383 --> 00:25:06,143
My sister has said

589
00:25:06,223 --> 00:25:07,493
that she didn't do it.

590
00:25:07,663 --> 00:25:08,813
That means she didn't.

591
00:25:08,813 --> 00:25:09,423
Do you understand?

592
00:25:09,663 --> 00:25:10,293
Fine.

593
00:25:11,053 --> 00:25:12,293
She said she didn't do it

594
00:25:12,423 --> 00:25:13,703
and that Qing'er lured her here.

595
00:25:14,253 --> 00:25:14,863
But Qing'er

596
00:25:14,863 --> 00:25:16,333
was performing during that moment.

597
00:25:17,013 --> 00:25:18,463
Does she have the ability
to split herself?

598
00:25:24,293 --> 00:25:26,813
Naturally, that's not the case.

599
00:25:31,033 --> 00:25:33,503
[Yu'er]

600
00:25:34,903 --> 00:25:35,293
Wait...

601
00:25:36,983 --> 00:25:38,223
Why are there two Qing'ers?

602
00:25:38,983 --> 00:25:41,333
It's because she's the one on the stage.

603
00:25:43,143 --> 00:25:44,423
Now, I understand.

604
00:25:44,813 --> 00:25:46,623
These two are twin sisters.

605
00:25:47,493 --> 00:25:48,093
Madam Zhu,

606
00:25:48,423 --> 00:25:49,703
I'm sure you understand now.

607
00:25:49,863 --> 00:25:51,703
One of them was performing
the dance on Feiniang's behalf.

608
00:25:51,943 --> 00:25:52,493
The other

609
00:25:52,533 --> 00:25:53,663
lured my sister here.

610
00:25:54,183 --> 00:25:55,183
Their goal was to leave my sister

611
00:25:55,183 --> 00:25:55,863
with no way to defend herself.

612
00:25:56,223 --> 00:25:58,093
What a vicious plot.

613
00:25:59,093 --> 00:25:59,703
Mr. Yu,

614
00:26:00,053 --> 00:26:01,093
please send these two individuals

615
00:26:01,253 --> 00:26:02,143
to the authorities.

616
00:26:02,623 --> 00:26:03,293
And this person.

617
00:26:03,333 --> 00:26:04,183
No!

618
00:26:04,733 --> 00:26:05,253
Long Dan.

619
00:26:05,623 --> 00:26:06,903
Not me!

620
00:26:07,253 --> 00:26:08,813
It was her! She gave me the letter!

621
00:26:09,053 --> 00:26:09,703
I didn't see

622
00:26:09,703 --> 00:26:10,383
Madam Yi's face clearly.

623
00:26:10,983 --> 00:26:12,143
She impersonated Madam Yi.

624
00:26:12,773 --> 00:26:14,053
It was their fault!

625
00:26:14,573 --> 00:26:15,573
It has nothing to do with me!

626
00:26:15,773 --> 00:26:16,813
I can see why you're an actor.

627
00:26:16,863 --> 00:26:17,773
You can act on the spot.

628
00:26:18,183 --> 00:26:19,383
Qing'er,

629
00:26:19,573 --> 00:26:20,663
now, all the blame

630
00:26:20,703 --> 00:26:22,053
has been shifted to you and your sister.

631
00:26:22,383 --> 00:26:23,943
Do you not wish to defend yourself?

632
00:26:25,813 --> 00:26:27,333
Seems like my wife and I

633
00:26:27,773 --> 00:26:29,493
were tricked by them.

634
00:26:30,663 --> 00:26:31,623
You tried

635
00:26:32,333 --> 00:26:34,053
to get close to me
for the past few days.

636
00:26:34,533 --> 00:26:35,463
I already told you

637
00:26:35,463 --> 00:26:36,733
to drop the thought.

638
00:26:38,573 --> 00:26:39,733
Yi was the only one I loved.

639
00:26:43,333 --> 00:26:44,223
But you tried to harm her

640
00:26:44,223 --> 00:26:45,623
with such a vicious plot.

641
00:26:46,863 --> 00:26:47,813
At this point,

642
00:26:50,423 --> 00:26:51,733
what else do you
have to say for yourself?

643
00:26:57,463 --> 00:26:58,533
It was my wishful thinking!

644
00:26:58,773 --> 00:27:00,183
I came up with the plot myself!

645
00:27:00,293 --> 00:27:01,623
It has nothing to do with other people!

646
00:27:01,983 --> 00:27:02,623
It's the same for my sister!

647
00:27:02,623 --> 00:27:03,573
She was kept in the dark!

648
00:27:03,773 --> 00:27:04,623
She merely performed a dance

649
00:27:04,623 --> 00:27:05,863
under my instruction!

650
00:27:06,143 --> 00:27:07,223
It's all my fault!

651
00:27:15,733 --> 00:27:16,183
Feiniang!

652
00:27:18,813 --> 00:27:19,383
I'm begging you! Please!

653
00:27:19,423 --> 00:27:21,333
I'll break your legs if you dare to step

654
00:27:21,423 --> 00:27:22,253
into the Caiyun Troupe again!

655
00:27:22,773 --> 00:27:24,143
Miss Fei! Yanniang!

656
00:27:28,573 --> 00:27:29,773
It's just a stupid troupe.

657
00:27:30,463 --> 00:27:31,293
You think I want to stay here?

658
00:27:34,223 --> 00:27:35,253
If they don't welcome me,

659
00:27:36,493 --> 00:27:37,333
I'll find my own place.

660
00:27:37,733 --> 00:27:38,863
[Dressing Room, the hour of Hai]
First, the lip balm was mixed

661
00:27:38,863 --> 00:27:39,533
[Jiang Yi]
with Chinese yam extract.

662
00:27:39,833 --> 00:27:40,533
After that,

663
00:27:40,573 --> 00:27:42,183
my dance shoes
were slathered with pork lard.

664
00:27:42,703 --> 00:27:43,573
When I gave it some thought,

665
00:27:43,983 --> 00:27:45,223
I knew that I was their target.

666
00:27:46,013 --> 00:27:47,773
That would make Meng Nan
the prime suspect.

667
00:27:48,183 --> 00:27:48,703
Indeed.

668
00:27:48,943 --> 00:27:49,663
I found this note

669
00:27:49,663 --> 00:27:50,623
in the multi-compartment box

670
00:27:50,863 --> 00:27:51,983
he brought.

671
00:27:53,093 --> 00:27:54,293
But the content of the note

672
00:27:54,333 --> 00:27:55,253
doesn't prove anything.

673
00:27:55,573 --> 00:27:56,183
That's why

674
00:27:56,223 --> 00:27:56,983
I didn't take it out just now.

675
00:27:59,703 --> 00:28:01,383
Someone else
was pulling the strings indeed.

676
00:28:03,293 --> 00:28:03,943
Miss Fei,

677
00:28:04,903 --> 00:28:05,943
there's one thing I don't understand.

678
00:28:06,573 --> 00:28:07,463
I heard

679
00:28:07,773 --> 00:28:09,093
that you always cared
about your reputation.

680
00:28:09,663 --> 00:28:11,703
But you made a fake confession
saying that you were

681
00:28:12,293 --> 00:28:13,493
supposed to meet Meng Nan in private

682
00:28:13,663 --> 00:28:14,703
in order to help my sister out.

683
00:28:15,663 --> 00:28:16,423
Why did you do so?

684
00:28:16,703 --> 00:28:17,813
I do care about reputation.

685
00:28:18,053 --> 00:28:18,943
But my concerns extend beyond myself.

686
00:28:19,423 --> 00:28:20,423
I also care
about the Caiyun Troupe's reputation.

687
00:28:21,183 --> 00:28:22,533
Meng Nan was a member
of the Caiyun Troupe.

688
00:28:23,093 --> 00:28:24,703
If I allowed him to get his way

689
00:28:24,943 --> 00:28:26,293
and ruin your sister's future,

690
00:28:26,733 --> 00:28:27,733
Caiyun Troupe

691
00:28:27,863 --> 00:28:28,943
would end up as a laughing stock.

692
00:28:29,093 --> 00:28:30,223
It'll be hard for us to perform again.

693
00:28:31,903 --> 00:28:32,773
Miss Fei, thank you
for your righteousness.

694
00:29:01,623 --> 00:29:02,333
Yi.

695
00:29:03,943 --> 00:29:04,663
Are you okay?

696
00:29:08,093 --> 00:29:08,773
I'm fine.

697
00:29:09,773 --> 00:29:10,533
Let's return.

698
00:29:11,143 --> 00:29:12,143
Yan is at home.

699
00:29:12,863 --> 00:29:13,903
I'm afraid

700
00:29:13,903 --> 00:29:15,253
she won't sleep until she sees me.

701
00:29:15,463 --> 00:29:16,053
Yi.

702
00:29:17,703 --> 00:29:19,093
Yi, you're smoothing things over

703
00:29:20,223 --> 00:29:21,983
for Yan's sake, am I right?

704
00:29:25,733 --> 00:29:27,053
It's nothing major anyway.

705
00:29:28,383 --> 00:29:29,383
It's good enough

706
00:29:29,383 --> 00:29:30,423
as long as we send
that troublemaker Qing'er

707
00:29:30,733 --> 00:29:31,423
to the authorities.

708
00:29:32,493 --> 00:29:33,093
Yi,

709
00:29:33,703 --> 00:29:34,773
do you truly think

710
00:29:35,223 --> 00:29:36,333
that the plot tonight

711
00:29:36,423 --> 00:29:37,423
was hatched

712
00:29:37,463 --> 00:29:38,533
by a lass we found in the mountains?

713
00:29:39,143 --> 00:29:39,903
Although Madam Zhu

714
00:29:40,183 --> 00:29:41,423
has a grudge against you,

715
00:29:41,703 --> 00:29:42,703
she believed

716
00:29:42,863 --> 00:29:43,663
that you would never

717
00:29:43,663 --> 00:29:44,573
commit such a deed.

718
00:29:45,623 --> 00:29:46,623
But Zhu Ziyu?

719
00:29:47,013 --> 00:29:47,533
It appeared

720
00:29:47,533 --> 00:29:49,223
he was on your side, defending you.

721
00:29:49,773 --> 00:29:50,573
But really,

722
00:29:50,573 --> 00:29:52,253
he was just making things worse
with everything he said.

723
00:29:53,013 --> 00:29:54,223
First, he angered Madam Zhu

724
00:29:54,223 --> 00:29:54,983
and requested her to get changed.

725
00:29:55,293 --> 00:29:56,053
His true goal

726
00:29:56,053 --> 00:29:56,943
was to head to the wardrobe

727
00:29:56,983 --> 00:29:58,183
and see if anyone was hiding inside.

728
00:29:58,663 --> 00:29:59,183
Next,

729
00:29:59,573 --> 00:30:00,703
although Feiniang already confessed

730
00:30:00,703 --> 00:30:01,663
that she was
meeting Meng Nan in private,

731
00:30:02,463 --> 00:30:04,053
he insisted on waiting
for Meng Nan to wake up

732
00:30:04,093 --> 00:30:04,903
so that he could question him.

733
00:30:04,943 --> 00:30:06,143
Lastly, when we tried to send

734
00:30:06,183 --> 00:30:07,463
Qing'er and her sister
to the authorities,

735
00:30:07,773 --> 00:30:08,773
he tried his best to stop us...

736
00:30:08,813 --> 00:30:09,293
Si.

737
00:30:11,623 --> 00:30:12,423
That's enough.

738
00:30:12,773 --> 00:30:14,983
Yi, I have to tell you the truth.

739
00:30:16,293 --> 00:30:17,053
I know

740
00:30:17,333 --> 00:30:19,093
that you understand everything.

741
00:30:19,533 --> 00:30:21,093
But you're just not willing to admit it.

742
00:30:22,013 --> 00:30:23,623
First, our carriage
almost fell off the cliff.

743
00:30:24,253 --> 00:30:26,013
Today, you were maligned
for meeting a performer in private.

744
00:30:26,533 --> 00:30:27,663
Who knows

745
00:30:27,663 --> 00:30:28,423
what kind of despicable means

746
00:30:28,423 --> 00:30:29,493
he'll resort to next?

747
00:30:30,573 --> 00:30:31,293
I was wondering

748
00:30:32,013 --> 00:30:32,663
if he would blackmail you

749
00:30:33,143 --> 00:30:34,903
using Yan after this.

750
00:30:40,573 --> 00:30:42,623
We've been married for seven years.

751
00:30:46,733 --> 00:30:47,493
How could he disregard

752
00:30:47,493 --> 00:30:49,333
our marital bond just like that?

753
00:30:54,983 --> 00:30:56,423
Why is he doing this to me?

754
00:30:58,773 --> 00:31:00,423
What exactly have I done wrong?

755
00:31:02,943 --> 00:31:03,533
Yi,

756
00:31:04,943 --> 00:31:06,493
how could this be your fault?

757
00:31:08,183 --> 00:31:09,223
The villains are the ones at fault

758
00:31:09,703 --> 00:31:10,813
for committing evil deeds.

759
00:31:12,183 --> 00:31:12,863
Do not find faults

760
00:31:12,863 --> 00:31:14,013
with yourself.

761
00:31:17,333 --> 00:31:18,463
Zhu Ziyu

762
00:31:19,463 --> 00:31:20,733
is too good at pretending.

763
00:31:23,053 --> 00:31:23,983
I'm sure

764
00:31:24,383 --> 00:31:25,493
you were just getting by

765
00:31:25,533 --> 00:31:26,733
without pursuing responsibilities.

766
00:31:26,863 --> 00:31:28,183
That's why you don't even know

767
00:31:28,223 --> 00:31:29,773
why he tried to harm you.

768
00:31:30,533 --> 00:31:32,013
Therefore, there's one thing

769
00:31:32,703 --> 00:31:34,333
we need
to get to the bottom of by tonight.

770
00:31:35,623 --> 00:31:36,623
We need to make you see

771
00:31:38,053 --> 00:31:38,773
the kind of person

772
00:31:38,773 --> 00:31:40,013
you've gotten married to.

773
00:31:53,463 --> 00:31:54,733
Zhu Ziyu met up with a woman.

774
00:31:55,813 --> 00:31:57,053
Did you see what she looked like?

775
00:31:57,623 --> 00:31:58,253
No.

776
00:31:59,253 --> 00:32:00,333
She had bodyguards.

777
00:32:00,573 --> 00:32:01,573
I didn't want to alert them
to our presence.

778
00:32:01,663 --> 00:32:02,983
That's why I came back
to notify you all.

779
00:32:03,703 --> 00:32:04,533
But

780
00:32:04,573 --> 00:32:05,663
the getup of her maids

781
00:32:05,863 --> 00:32:06,663
looked more posh

782
00:32:06,663 --> 00:32:07,423
than noble ladies.

783
00:32:07,863 --> 00:32:08,813
Therefore, that woman

784
00:32:08,863 --> 00:32:09,943
is either rich or noble.

785
00:32:10,573 --> 00:32:11,903
Could it be that Zhu Ziyu

786
00:32:12,813 --> 00:32:14,383
has associated himself
with a noble lady?

787
00:32:15,253 --> 00:32:16,383
Perhaps he risked everything

788
00:32:16,383 --> 00:32:17,383
to harm my sister

789
00:32:17,703 --> 00:32:18,863
so that he could make the noble lady

790
00:32:19,293 --> 00:32:20,463
his official wife.

791
00:32:20,983 --> 00:32:21,903
Zhu Ziyu

792
00:32:21,903 --> 00:32:22,903
is an educated individual,

793
00:32:23,533 --> 00:32:25,383
yet he committed such despicable deeds.

794
00:32:25,573 --> 00:32:27,053
They've been married for seven years.

795
00:32:27,253 --> 00:32:28,493
How could he do this to her?

796
00:32:31,493 --> 00:32:33,013
Commandant Xie, calm down.

797
00:32:33,703 --> 00:32:34,773
It's just an assumption.

798
00:32:38,463 --> 00:32:38,983
Sir.

799
00:32:39,383 --> 00:32:40,773
Meng Nan is spreading rumors

800
00:32:41,013 --> 00:32:41,943
that the young madam of the Zhu family

801
00:32:41,943 --> 00:32:42,733
had an affair with him.

802
00:32:44,663 --> 00:32:45,573
That animal!

803
00:32:46,903 --> 00:32:47,383
Don't worry.

804
00:32:47,623 --> 00:32:48,663
I'll capture him right away!

805
00:32:49,093 --> 00:32:49,463
Let's go!

806
00:32:51,463 --> 00:32:53,053
Yinlou

807
00:32:53,093 --> 00:32:54,533
has a short temper, huh?

808
00:32:56,053 --> 00:32:57,053
This is simple.

809
00:32:57,703 --> 00:32:58,293
Just capture him.

810
00:32:58,573 --> 00:33:00,223
He'll confess
if you press a sword against his neck.

811
00:33:01,813 --> 00:33:02,943
Did you forget
that you're the Commandant

812
00:33:03,253 --> 00:33:04,663
of the Capital Administration Office?

813
00:33:05,013 --> 00:33:05,943
How could an official like you

814
00:33:06,223 --> 00:33:07,143
act so recklessly?

815
00:33:07,863 --> 00:33:08,663
Right now,

816
00:33:09,053 --> 00:33:10,573
I'm just your bodyguard.

817
00:33:10,903 --> 00:33:12,093
Give me the order,

818
00:33:12,183 --> 00:33:13,183
and I'll execute it.

819
00:33:16,623 --> 00:33:17,253
Is there a way

820
00:33:17,253 --> 00:33:18,623
to bait both of these lurking dangers

821
00:33:18,623 --> 00:33:19,533
into revealing themselves

822
00:33:19,943 --> 00:33:21,053
at the same time?

823
00:33:22,533 --> 00:33:23,293
Meng Nan

824
00:33:23,333 --> 00:33:24,863
doesn't know the woman's identity.

825
00:33:24,943 --> 00:33:26,053
He's an abandoned pawn too.

826
00:33:26,093 --> 00:33:28,813
You want to lure her out by using him?

827
00:33:29,773 --> 00:33:30,253
It's difficult.

828
00:33:32,903 --> 00:33:33,573
But Zhu Ziyu

829
00:33:33,623 --> 00:33:34,733
is hiding himself so well.

830
00:33:35,463 --> 00:33:36,733
They have

831
00:33:37,623 --> 00:33:38,333
an informant,

832
00:33:38,333 --> 00:33:39,493
without a doubt.

833
00:33:44,603 --> 00:33:46,603
[Zhu Mansion]

834
00:33:57,053 --> 00:33:57,423
Here.

835
00:34:01,733 --> 00:34:03,053
Qing'er, sit down.

836
00:34:11,303 --> 00:34:12,012
What are you up to?

837
00:34:12,343 --> 00:34:13,093
Don't worry.

838
00:34:14,173 --> 00:34:15,343
I came here

839
00:34:15,533 --> 00:34:16,423
because I have a question.

840
00:34:17,093 --> 00:34:18,262
Did you do everything

841
00:34:18,742 --> 00:34:19,983
under

842
00:34:20,012 --> 00:34:20,863
Zhu Ziyu's instructions?

843
00:34:22,383 --> 00:34:22,983
I told you already.

844
00:34:23,693 --> 00:34:24,783
I did everything myself.

845
00:34:27,463 --> 00:34:29,213
I don't expect you
to rat him out anyway.

846
00:34:30,423 --> 00:34:31,492
I just want to know

847
00:34:32,463 --> 00:34:33,383
why he did so.

848
00:34:37,903 --> 00:34:39,303
I have your indenture with me.

849
00:34:39,823 --> 00:34:41,343
If you're willing to tell us

850
00:34:41,742 --> 00:34:43,383
why Zhu Ziyu did all those things,

851
00:34:44,012 --> 00:34:45,173
I'll return it to you.

852
00:34:48,262 --> 00:34:49,783
You don't want your indenture, huh?

853
00:34:52,823 --> 00:34:53,823
I'll tell you this, then.

854
00:34:54,492 --> 00:34:55,693
I have another indenture with me.

855
00:34:56,823 --> 00:34:57,983
It's your sister's.

856
00:34:59,343 --> 00:34:59,903
What?

857
00:35:00,463 --> 00:35:01,173
Why would you have

858
00:35:01,173 --> 00:35:02,173
my sister's indenture?

859
00:35:02,613 --> 00:35:03,823
My prediction was right.

860
00:35:04,463 --> 00:35:05,263
Zhu Ziyu was using your sister

861
00:35:05,263 --> 00:35:06,823
to blackmail you, right?

862
00:35:07,133 --> 00:35:07,823
I know.

863
00:35:08,383 --> 00:35:10,013
Your sister was a dancer

864
00:35:10,093 --> 00:35:11,533
bought by Zhu Ziyu from elsewhere.

865
00:35:12,263 --> 00:35:13,173
You two have been separated

866
00:35:13,173 --> 00:35:14,093
for many years.

867
00:35:14,423 --> 00:35:16,053
Both of you only acknowledged
each other last month.

868
00:35:16,463 --> 00:35:17,653
To my knowledge,

869
00:35:17,943 --> 00:35:18,613
she's

870
00:35:18,613 --> 00:35:19,653
your only kin.

871
00:35:20,263 --> 00:35:21,173
You intend

872
00:35:21,173 --> 00:35:22,013
to shoulder all of the blame.

873
00:35:22,173 --> 00:35:23,263
But have you considered this?

874
00:35:23,573 --> 00:35:25,343
Do you truly think
Zhu Ziyu will let you off?

875
00:35:25,783 --> 00:35:27,463
Do you think
you can see your sister after this?

876
00:35:29,653 --> 00:35:30,743
You're doing this
for your sister's sake.

877
00:35:31,303 --> 00:35:32,093
Me too.

878
00:35:32,743 --> 00:35:34,133
Your sister was abused by Zhu Ziyu.

879
00:35:34,463 --> 00:35:35,493
My sister suffered the same thing.

880
00:35:36,173 --> 00:35:37,213
We're the same.

881
00:35:37,303 --> 00:35:38,743
We're trying to rescue our kin here.

882
00:35:39,383 --> 00:35:40,743
Isn't your sister doing well?

883
00:35:41,573 --> 00:35:43,173
She's well-fed and well-dressed.

884
00:35:43,263 --> 00:35:44,053
Is she?

885
00:35:44,573 --> 00:35:45,463
You two framed her

886
00:35:45,493 --> 00:35:46,863
when we were at Yunshui House.

887
00:35:47,053 --> 00:35:48,533
Her life was almost ruined.

888
00:35:49,533 --> 00:35:51,533
Only you and your sister know

889
00:35:51,983 --> 00:35:53,343
about Zhu Ziyu's secrets.

890
00:35:53,943 --> 00:35:56,743
You might know him better than me.

891
00:35:57,493 --> 00:35:58,423
Think about this.

892
00:35:58,693 --> 00:35:59,863
Do you think he'll keep you

893
00:36:00,263 --> 00:36:01,463
or your sister alive

894
00:36:01,653 --> 00:36:03,133
if he wants to ensure his safety?

895
00:36:03,573 --> 00:36:04,983
My sister is his official wife.

896
00:36:05,213 --> 00:36:05,983
Even so,

897
00:36:05,983 --> 00:36:07,303
she's worthless to him.

898
00:36:08,173 --> 00:36:08,743
What about you?

899
00:36:09,343 --> 00:36:10,133
Do you think

900
00:36:10,133 --> 00:36:11,093
he'll pay any regard to you?

901
00:36:12,013 --> 00:36:12,863
You and your sister

902
00:36:12,863 --> 00:36:14,093
have finally reunited after so long.

903
00:36:14,653 --> 00:36:15,863
You two have suffered a lot.

904
00:36:15,863 --> 00:36:17,133
Now, you two are reunited.

905
00:36:18,093 --> 00:36:19,383
Is it worth it for you two to die here

906
00:36:19,943 --> 00:36:21,493
after putting in so much effort?

907
00:36:23,303 --> 00:36:25,493
Qing'er, I don't expect anything else.

908
00:36:25,983 --> 00:36:26,903
I just hope

909
00:36:27,903 --> 00:36:28,863
that you can think about

910
00:36:28,943 --> 00:36:29,983
what I've said today.

911
00:36:35,383 --> 00:36:36,693
Did she truly say that?

912
00:36:37,693 --> 00:36:38,093
Yes.

913
00:36:38,493 --> 00:36:39,463
Qing'er said it was her fault

914
00:36:39,653 --> 00:36:40,863
from the start until the end.

915
00:36:41,383 --> 00:36:42,573
She may not have confessed today.

916
00:36:43,053 --> 00:36:44,743
But what if Jiang Si questions her
every day?

917
00:36:45,983 --> 00:36:46,613
We

918
00:36:47,823 --> 00:36:48,463
cannot keep Qing'er alive.

919
00:37:11,613 --> 00:37:13,693
Is this how you run the household?

920
00:37:14,533 --> 00:37:15,133
How could you

921
00:37:15,133 --> 00:37:16,653
let Qing'er escape?

922
00:37:16,903 --> 00:37:17,943
You're useless.

923
00:37:18,533 --> 00:37:19,093
And,

924
00:37:19,423 --> 00:37:20,783
do you know that Meng fellow

925
00:37:21,133 --> 00:37:22,263
has been spouting nonsense about you?

926
00:37:23,093 --> 00:37:23,863
Now,

927
00:37:24,303 --> 00:37:26,383
the whole city is saying
that you're unfaithful

928
00:37:26,533 --> 00:37:27,693
as you've had an affair with him.

929
00:37:28,133 --> 00:37:29,783
You've utterly embarrassed

930
00:37:30,263 --> 00:37:31,653
our family!

931
00:37:32,133 --> 00:37:33,173
It's my fault.

932
00:37:33,343 --> 00:37:35,173
Yi, what has this got to do with you?

933
00:37:35,983 --> 00:37:37,613
Madam Zhu, you know this too.

934
00:37:37,783 --> 00:37:39,133
Yi was framed.

935
00:37:39,383 --> 00:37:39,943
Meng Nan is the one

936
00:37:39,943 --> 00:37:41,173
spreading rumors out there.

937
00:37:41,613 --> 00:37:42,533
How could you blame my sister

938
00:37:42,533 --> 00:37:44,013
for the rumors?

939
00:37:45,213 --> 00:37:46,823
Indeed. I shouldn't blame her for them.

940
00:37:47,613 --> 00:37:49,343
I should blame you instead.

941
00:37:50,173 --> 00:37:52,263
I didn't chase you out

942
00:37:52,863 --> 00:37:53,863
on account of my in-laws.

943
00:37:55,533 --> 00:37:56,173
Yi,

944
00:37:57,053 --> 00:37:58,303
look at the amount of trouble
your sister had caused

945
00:37:58,943 --> 00:38:00,423
after she started to live with us.

946
00:38:01,173 --> 00:38:02,943
I heard that she had done

947
00:38:03,343 --> 00:38:04,573
a lot of brazen deeds

948
00:38:05,053 --> 00:38:06,613
when she was in Ling'an.

949
00:38:07,903 --> 00:38:09,213
As long as she's here,

950
00:38:09,613 --> 00:38:11,053
our family can never obtain peace.

951
00:38:11,693 --> 00:38:13,383
You have to go by today.

952
00:38:13,863 --> 00:38:15,383
You're not welcome here!

953
00:38:15,783 --> 00:38:16,343
Mother.

954
00:38:16,943 --> 00:38:18,013
You can insult or scold me

955
00:38:18,053 --> 00:38:19,133
how you like.

956
00:38:19,743 --> 00:38:21,303
As your daughter-in-law,
I accept my fate.

957
00:38:21,983 --> 00:38:23,533
But my sister has come from afar.

958
00:38:23,613 --> 00:38:24,343
No matter what,

959
00:38:24,383 --> 00:38:25,693
you shouldn't speak of her this way,

960
00:38:25,693 --> 00:38:26,653
let alone reprimand her.

961
00:38:27,053 --> 00:38:27,943
I would've fallen off

962
00:38:28,463 --> 00:38:29,863
a cliff and died

963
00:38:30,173 --> 00:38:31,053
or been maligned to death
at Yunshui House

964
00:38:31,053 --> 00:38:32,383
had she not come to my rescue.

965
00:38:34,013 --> 00:38:35,493
Do you detest my sister

966
00:38:36,263 --> 00:38:37,533
because she rescued me?

967
00:38:38,053 --> 00:38:39,133
Thus, you're unable to get your way

968
00:38:39,133 --> 00:38:40,653
and make my husband marry another woman.

969
00:38:41,173 --> 00:38:41,903
If so, you cannot pick

970
00:38:41,903 --> 00:38:43,263
a girl who suits your every preference

971
00:38:43,693 --> 00:38:45,133
and can deliver a male offspring
for the Zhu family, right?

972
00:38:45,343 --> 00:38:45,743
You!

973
00:38:47,173 --> 00:38:48,423
So, you were just pretending

974
00:38:48,493 --> 00:38:49,903
to be subservient and virtuous.

975
00:38:51,133 --> 00:38:52,343
You're the same as your sister.

976
00:38:53,173 --> 00:38:54,383
You two are equally defiant!

977
00:38:55,263 --> 00:38:55,823
Fine.

978
00:38:56,383 --> 00:38:58,013
Today, both of you

979
00:38:58,093 --> 00:38:58,943
will get out of my house!

980
00:38:59,533 --> 00:39:00,173
I'm the official wife

981
00:39:00,213 --> 00:39:01,743
who's properly married into your family.

982
00:39:02,943 --> 00:39:03,943
If you wish to chase me out,

983
00:39:04,423 --> 00:39:05,783
you have to make my husband divorce me.

984
00:39:06,943 --> 00:39:08,263
I've been married into the family
for many years.

985
00:39:08,693 --> 00:39:10,613
I prioritized my husband's
and his parents' interests.

986
00:39:10,983 --> 00:39:12,653
I have never fallen short in virtue,
speech, demeanor, or duty.

987
00:39:13,213 --> 00:39:14,383
Although I haven't given birth to a son,

988
00:39:14,383 --> 00:39:15,303
I've given birth to a daughter.

989
00:39:15,653 --> 00:39:16,653
I'm not without any descendants.

990
00:39:17,743 --> 00:39:18,863
Under the Seven Grounds for Divorce,

991
00:39:19,613 --> 00:39:21,173
which rule have I broken?

992
00:39:22,423 --> 00:39:22,863
You...

993
00:39:23,493 --> 00:39:24,533
The law of Zhou

994
00:39:24,613 --> 00:39:26,983
punishes divorce
without violating the Seven Grounds

995
00:39:27,343 --> 00:39:28,263
with eighteen months in prison.

996
00:39:28,533 --> 00:39:29,093
Madam Zhu,

997
00:39:29,383 --> 00:39:30,423
if the Zhu family

998
00:39:30,533 --> 00:39:32,013
dares to divorce my sister
without any valid reasons,

999
00:39:32,013 --> 00:39:33,013
our family will surely

1000
00:39:33,343 --> 00:39:34,653
report you to the authorities.

1001
00:39:35,013 --> 00:39:36,263
This isn't our first time
doing it anyway.

1002
00:39:36,493 --> 00:39:37,823
By then, I assume your son

1003
00:39:37,903 --> 00:39:39,263
will be sent to prison

1004
00:39:39,263 --> 00:39:40,013
with his future ruined.

1005
00:39:40,903 --> 00:39:42,493
I suggest you weigh the pros and cons.

1006
00:39:42,573 --> 00:39:43,303
You don't get to divorce

1007
00:39:43,533 --> 00:39:45,213
your daughter-in-law as per your will.

1008
00:39:51,173 --> 00:39:51,783
You!

1009
00:39:52,783 --> 00:39:54,053
You two, get out.

1010
00:39:55,213 --> 00:39:55,983
Scram!

1011
00:39:56,613 --> 00:39:58,263
Yi, let's go.

1012
00:40:18,133 --> 00:40:18,743
Mr. Xie.

1013
00:40:22,383 --> 00:40:23,213
If you wish to live,

1014
00:40:24,383 --> 00:40:25,743
you better follow my instructions.

1015
00:40:26,213 --> 00:40:26,573
I got it.

1016
00:40:31,983 --> 00:40:33,343
Yan, come on!

1017
00:40:35,863 --> 00:40:37,133
Yan, do you like this?

1018
00:40:39,653 --> 00:40:41,013
I used to tell myself

1019
00:40:41,533 --> 00:40:42,983
to endure everything
for the sake of harmony.

1020
00:40:44,343 --> 00:40:45,613
But only now do I realize

1021
00:40:46,213 --> 00:40:48,493
that lifting my restraint
is actually liberating.

1022
00:40:49,493 --> 00:40:50,133
Yi.

1023
00:40:52,493 --> 00:40:53,303
Thank you.

1024
00:40:55,133 --> 00:40:55,943
Silly girl,

1025
00:40:56,303 --> 00:40:57,533
everyone has limits,

1026
00:40:57,983 --> 00:40:59,133
regardless of what they can bear.

1027
00:41:00,133 --> 00:41:01,743
You are mine.

1028
00:41:04,423 --> 00:41:05,263
Yan as well.

1029
00:41:06,093 --> 00:41:07,173
Mother!

1030
00:41:07,343 --> 00:41:08,383
Mother!

1031
00:41:09,693 --> 00:41:10,863
I'm here!

1032
00:41:10,863 --> 00:41:12,173
Come and play with us!

1033
00:41:12,263 --> 00:41:13,053
Let's continue.

1034
00:41:13,133 --> 00:41:13,743
Come on, Yan.

1035
00:41:13,823 --> 00:41:14,383
Here.

1036
00:41:26,943 --> 00:41:27,533
Mother,

1037
00:41:28,093 --> 00:41:28,903
please don't be angry.

1038
00:41:29,863 --> 00:41:31,013
It was wrong of me to ask you

1039
00:41:31,053 --> 00:41:31,943
to bring up this matter.

1040
00:41:34,613 --> 00:41:35,173
Ziyu.

1041
00:41:36,423 --> 00:41:38,053
They're sisters.

1042
00:41:38,493 --> 00:41:39,823
Naturally, they share the same bond.

1043
00:41:40,613 --> 00:41:42,783
You and I are the closest.

1044
00:41:43,423 --> 00:41:45,263
We have to stay united

1045
00:41:45,763 --> 00:41:46,833
so that we can keep them

1046
00:41:46,933 --> 00:41:47,633
in check.

1047
00:41:48,013 --> 00:41:49,533
Yi promised

1048
00:41:49,863 --> 00:41:50,943
that she would send her sister back

1049
00:41:50,983 --> 00:41:52,093
after the Water Festival.

1050
00:41:53,133 --> 00:41:54,493
But now, she's acting out of character.

1051
00:41:55,013 --> 00:41:55,903
She even talked back to you

1052
00:41:55,903 --> 00:41:56,903
for her sister's sake.

1053
00:41:57,303 --> 00:41:58,213
Do I

1054
00:42:00,903 --> 00:42:02,133
have to divorce her for real?

1055
00:42:04,423 --> 00:42:05,903
Who told you to divorce her?

1056
00:42:07,463 --> 00:42:08,463
Weren't you the one

1057
00:42:08,463 --> 00:42:09,693
who kept telling me to divorce her?

1058
00:42:10,133 --> 00:42:10,493
Silly man.

1059
00:42:10,653 --> 00:42:12,533
I was just saying.
How could you take it to heart?

1060
00:42:13,173 --> 00:42:14,903
I was once a daughter-in-law myself.

1061
00:42:15,613 --> 00:42:16,743
I'll be honest with you.

1062
00:42:17,423 --> 00:42:18,493
Apart from being sonless,

1063
00:42:18,863 --> 00:42:19,693
there really isn't any fault

1064
00:42:19,693 --> 00:42:20,573
to be found with Yi.

1065
00:42:21,303 --> 00:42:21,903
You can't find

1066
00:42:21,943 --> 00:42:23,743
another daughter-in-law

1067
00:42:24,093 --> 00:42:24,903
in Lingshui

1068
00:42:25,053 --> 00:42:26,173
who's as capable as her.

1069
00:42:26,823 --> 00:42:28,613
If so, Mother, why did you

1070
00:42:28,613 --> 00:42:29,653
still pick on her?

1071
00:42:30,343 --> 00:42:30,983
What's wrong with that?

1072
00:42:31,343 --> 00:42:32,983
Your grandmother passed away
not long ago.

1073
00:42:33,983 --> 00:42:35,053
I've finally become

1074
00:42:35,053 --> 00:42:35,943
a mother-in-law myself.

1075
00:42:36,573 --> 00:42:37,573
Can't I show off

1076
00:42:37,613 --> 00:42:38,783
my authority for once?

1077
00:42:40,533 --> 00:42:41,383
Sometimes,

1078
00:42:41,463 --> 00:42:42,823
I'm just angry at you.

1079
00:42:43,263 --> 00:42:45,383
Who told you to always take her side?
