Episode 15

Madam.

These are flowers that the Second Madam picked herself.

If everyone puts all their heart into asking for fortune,

the Young Lord will definitely return safely.

You two are very caring.

Madam.

How about we ask for fortune together?

More people means more strength.

Only then will the great god of the Nine Lands' power be even stronger.

Qiu Shi, what are you crying for?

Qing'er jie jie, what do I do?Jie Jie=big sister

I dropped the soup made for the Second Madam!

I'll definitely be beaten by Miss Rong if I go back like this!

How can you be so not careful?

It's not easy to take care of your Second Madam.

Qing'er jie jie, please help me!

If I do something wrong again, Miss Rong will definitely kick me out!

Okay okay, you look so pitiful.

You're lucky.

This is the soup I made for the Madam.

Take it to Second Madam first.

Really? Thank you Qing'er jie jie.

Enough, don't be so clumsy this time.

If you drop it again, no one can help you.

Thank you so much!

Second Madam!

It's been poisoned?

Second Madam!

Second Madam, do not be sad.

Your poison has been neutralized.

But the child is gone.

Calm down! Calm down!

If this gets out,

the one who will be the worst off is you!

If the child is gone,

the Young Lord will definitely pursue the reason behind it.

If he finds out someone poisoned you,

he'll suspect us sooner or later!

You want to tell the Young Lord

that it was my idea from the beginning to the end?

You want to put it all on me?

For you,

I am willing to take responsibility.

But do you think the Young Lord will believe that?

Correct.

Based on his gratitude to you,

he won't do anything to you.

But from now on?

Based on his personality,

I'm afraid he won't dote on you so much anymore.

Such a big palace, you don't even have someone to depend on.

How can you live on?

From today on,

you can only listen to me.

Song Ning avoided trouble once,

but she won't avoid it twice!

I won't let things finish this way.

Someone must take the blame.

Madam, the weather is so nice today.

Let's go out and take a walk.

How about taking a hike up the mountain?

Let's go.

Eldest Madam.

Where are you going Madam?

Our Madam is going hiking.

Hiking? What a coincidence!

Second Madam was just saying

that she is bored in the house and wants to go out,

and wants to go hiking.

A pregnant person should best be careful.

-Tell them to bring the horse carriage over.-Yes.

Eldest Madam, look, the weather is so nice today.

You both want to go hiking. How about going together?

Why be so respectful?

I cannot accept it.

Eldest Madam, Second Madam knows very well in her heart

that even though the Young Lord isn't here,

he hopes that you two can live in peace together.

If you and I keep from associating in any way, then that will be living in peace.

Madam, the air is so nice here!

Second Madam, the weather is so nice today.

Coming out for a walk is good for your child too.

Madam, I'll go get you an umbrella too.

Second Madam, are you thirsty?

I'll go get you some water.

Eldest Madam, please look after Second Madam for me.

Are you okay?

If you're not don't force it.

Let Miss Rong escort you back to the palace.

Miss Liu!

Miss Liu are you okay?

Hurry, doctor!

Hurry up!

Madam, Madam!

-How are things?-I heard the royal doctor say

that Second Madam lost the child!

Second Madam.

Everything has been done well.

Is it true?

I don't know either. I just heard about it.

Miss zither player.

Madam.

You've come?

I heard about Second Madam.

They tried to save the child but it was still lost.

Even though it's not my fault,

it's still the loss of a life.

It makes a person sad.

But why did I hear from the servants that someone said

that you forced her to go hiking?

That's why the child was lost.

Take it!

General, your letter from home.

Lord General,

A few days ago, the Eldest Madam went hiking to go play.

She wanted the Second Madam to accompany her.

On the way the Second Madam was suddenly in a lot of pain,

And lost the child.

Please punish me, General.

You say that the sound of your zither can ease all problems.

But there are many problems in this world.

Once you put down one thing, another grudge will replace it anew.

Using the zither to ease your problems is just like temporarily easing your thirst.

As long as someone lives in this life,

it is impossible not to have problems and hurt.

Forgetting what happened in the past,

you will still have to face problems in front of you.

Anyway, as long as someone is living,

every day is a hard journey.

Could it be that only death

can be the way to solve all pain and suffering?

No. There is a way

even better than death.

What is that?

An illusion.

What is an illusion?

Do you know that within the illusion there is a world?

This world

has no difference from the true world in which you live.

The one you love, the one you hate,

your past, your present.

None of those have changed in there.

But everything

can be changed by me.

I can let those who have once harmed you

disappear, die.

Or they could become friends with you.

I can make the worst situations become the best situations.

And what you have no way to obtain,

will become very easy to grasp.

Then do people stay there without wanting to come back?

If life in there is happier,

why must you return?

But it's still an illusion!

What is an illusion, what is reality?

You think this moment is reality,

but what if I say that it is fake?

You want to tell me

that life is just an illusion?

No.

I want to say, that real or fake,

is it really that important?

But in actuality...that is just running away.

Young Lord.

Shen An?

Why have you come back at this time?

Have things finished with the borders?

Did you get injured?

Have we won?

You all go out first.

What is wrong with you?

There is something I need to ask you.

You rushed back because of Liu Qiqi's child.

After something so big happened,

I cannot not return.

Liu Qiqi's rooms are not here.

You rushed back from the military camp in the middle of the night.

It was just to interrogate me.

Do you think that I have something to do with this?

I want to hear you speak.

I don't need to read it.

The letter must say

that it's my fault that Liu Qiqi lost her child.

Is it?

What do you think?

i'm asking you! I want to hear you say it, Song Ning!

I believe that you are not such a poisonous person!

I believe that you wouldn't do something like this!

Shen An.

What type of person am I in your heart?

You say that you don't believe that I am such a poisonous person,

but because of just one letter...

You came to interrogate me here!

I want to know the truth of the situation.

The truth?

The truth is that you don't believe me!

Shen An, how could you suspect me?

In your heart, am I such a

unscrupulous woman who will do anything?

If you are not, why won't you tell me

that you have nothing to do with this?

Song Ning.

I thought that after going through so many things,

Even if you and I have so many knots between us,

you should at least believe me!

But I was wrong.

You came back in the middle of the night and didn't go to see Liu Qiqi.

Instead you ran here first to interrogate me!

In your heart, you'd already made me guilty!

What you want, is just to

reinforce your conclusions here!

What I want is just a word of truth!

Truth?

The truth is that I indeed went hiking with Liu Qiqi.

Her child,

was indeed lost during an accident while hiking.

-You-!-After hearing all this, would you still trust me?

How can you be like this?

Song Ning, how could you do such a thing?

You still don't trust me in the end.

Shen An,

in the end you still don't trust me.

How could you be like this?

Even if you were even more jealous, hated Liu Qiqi even more,

how could you make a move against an unborn child?

She's not worthy of me making a move!

She deserved it!

Song Ning.

I have never thought

that you were this sort of person!

I've already told Qiqi to hold it in.

I also wanted to start anew with you!

But why,

Why wouldn't you let her go?

Everything is my fault.

You mixed rumor and truth and hurriedly made me guilty.

You said you wanted to start anew with me.

Is your "new beginning"

going to start with throwing me down to hell first?

I saw you wrongly before!

I've never intended

to start anew with such a poisonous woman!

You saw me wrong?

Shen An.

You didn't see me wrong.

I, Song Ning, am just such a poisonous hateful person!

Like how I forced Liu Qiqi to go hiking,

like how I purposefully killed your child!

Are you satisfied?

Why?

Why did you have to be like this?

Because I couldn't bear to see you two happy.

I couldn't watch you two reciprocating love for each other,

I couldn't watch it!

If this is what you want,

Okay.

I'll fulfill your wish.

What you want,

I'll give it all to you.

From now on, our debts are cleared!

Do you know what that means?

Shen An!

You dare to treat me like this?

You have no pity!

Shen An.

Do you know that...you are the one person I picked among the millions?

You are the one I once loved.

But that is the past.

Since it is the past, I won't talk about it.

Why did you have to come back?

Why didn't you just die on the battlefield?

This is good too.

Our debts are all cleared this way.

Reporting!

News has come that the Young Lord took soldiers out and won over all the Kingdom of Zhen soldiers!

Good! Good news!

Reporting! Your Excellency,

The young lord...the young lord was attacked, and right now no one knows if he lives or not!

What? When did that happen? Who did it?

I say, your Excellencies,

what do you think about the Generalissimo's injury?

This...

With such a serious injury, I'm afraid it'll be hard to deal with it.

Yes, hurry and think of something!

There's nothing I can do right now!

-Miss Zither player.-How is His Excellency doing? What did the doctors say?

They say that the outlook isn't good!

The outlook isn't good?

What are you doing?

I am Madam's zither player.

I can at least come take a look, right?

Go in.

I still remember that in the inn after the open country battle,

he said that for life he would not forsake me.

I still remember how happy I was then.

The person I loved, loved me too!

How fortunate!

Later on, Big Brother found me.

To keep him from discovering Shen An, I could only leave with him.

That day it was very windy.

I knew that he was just in the inn behind me.

But I couldn't turn back to look!

I knew that with every step I took,

I would be separated from him another inch!

But what could I do?

I only wanted him to live!

I only wished that he could keep fighting on.

Zhen'er, say,

if I didn't save him at first,

would things have been better?

If I never met him,

and only thought about each other,

it would be better than hating each other this way.

I think...

My love is pretty much dead.

How about I help you forget about everything?

What has happened before,

how can I forget them?

You still have me!

I can keep all of this from happening,

also, in the illusion, you can choose not to save him!

This way your life will be entirely different!

In the illusion?

There will always been a time when the illusion fades.

I'll give you an illusion that will never fade!

Sir, I got a spy's news

that no one knows if General Shen lives or not.

How is that possible?

Family matters.

Shen An is extremely loyal.

I hope that he can make it past this obstacle.

I've never been able to ask you

how you were able to go in to see the king.

Naturally, I just went in.

It's late. Go get some rest.

Are you bored?

I'm zoning out.

What is it?

Song Ning...

she finally wants me to weave an illusion.

Looking at your expression,

you are not willing?

I know.

She won't have long in the human realm that way.

It's best to have a perfect ending in the illusion.

-But...-But you can't do it.

Right?

Even though Teacher always told me

that I cannot stir up emotions for outsiders,

because an illusionist's mission,

is to bring people into the Hua Xu Illusion.

Find clues that are hidden away.

To use whatever means possible to bring people into the illusion.

And get their secrets from within the illusion.

But I cannot do it.

Silly girl.

There's nothing really wrong with being inside an illusion.

At least nothing sad will happen to them!

Is that the way it is?

I am so wise! Listen to me, you won't be wrong!

Look, this flower is so beautiful.

But even a more beautiful flower is just a flower.

But inside the illusion, that won't be the same.

Inside the illusion, you can let this flower

never wilt.

Isn't that right?

I understand!

In the end, I am an illusionist.

Go plant your flowers. I'm leaving!

Song Ning!

Loving someone is so easy,

and hating someone is also this easy.

What is love? What is hate?

I don't understand it.

Not understanding is good too.

Now that I think about it,

from the beginning to the end, what I fell in love with,

I'm afraid it was just a trick from my heart.

Zhen'er.

Can you help me keep this trick?

Inside the illusion.

I think...I can.

But...you need to pay a price.

A price?

I will make the illusion according to your wishes.

If the illusion is too beautiful and perfect,

people will keep staying in there, unwilling to come out.

So...if you want to stay in there forever,

the you in this world will suffer.

The me in this world?

Correct.

Actually...I don't want you to stay inside the illusion forever.

Because, people can't have everything they want.

But if you want to exchange for such happiness, you still won't have to pay such a big price.

Then what do you get?

One of your secrets.

I want to know a secret that you've always kept hidden.

A secret?

What secrets can I keep from you?

Zhen'er, just what happened to you?

If I sleep forever and never wake,

at least, I can take the truth and leave with it.

Actually...I also really want to know what happened.

You've lost your own memories?

That's good too.

Entering the Hua Xu Illusion,

at least you can see Ye Zhen.

Perhaps you will remember something.

Even if I sleep forever, it will still be worth it.

Don't rush. After I take you into the Hua Xu Illusion,

in there, you can see your entire life.

When that happens, you come tell me if you want to stay in there forever.

Where is Song Ning? Where is Song Ning?

I'm afraid it's too late.

They've come to capture me, hurry and leave!

Don't let them find you!

If I am sentenced to death, hurry and leave here!

-Hurry and go! Go!-I...but-!

Hurry and go! Hurry and leave!

-Take her to the prisons!-Yes!

You know I am Shen An's wife.

I can go myself.

I don't need you to tie me up.

If An'er dies, I want you to pay with your life!

That's good. I didn't plan to live on.

Take her away!

If both Song Ning and Shen An die,

isn't it not possible to find the thing Teacher wants to find?

Then what you mean is that you want to save them?

I just want to finish Teacher's orders!

Since I came here for that purpose, right?

With a magical master like you here,

I don't think their lives cannot be changed.

Can Shen An be saved?

Such a big thing depends on my mood!

Whether your mood is good or not you still have to save him!

Then I'll give it a try.

Stop.

-I've come to give His Excellency medicine.-Your pass?

I don't know about needing any pass.

The Elder General has just given his orders.

No one can go in without a pass!

You really didn't die.

If I die, who will go out to kill with you?

That's right. When I sneaked in,

I saw that the Elder General was preparing to punish Song Ning.

Take me there.

Qing'er, what's wrong?

Miss Jun, Madam has been brought to the punishment area. I'm afraid she won't be able to escape it this time.

Elder General Shen wants to kill her?

They want me to take the clothes that Madam likes to wear best.

I'll go first.

What do we do? Song Ning cannot die!

This isn't hard. If we save Shen An, Song Ning won't have to die.

But once the Elder General entered the palace,

he entirely surrounded Shen An's rooms!

I cannot get in, what do we do?

Don't worry, I'm here. Don't be afraid.

Then let's go save them. We'll go right now!

This way!

Strange, where did they all go?

I'll go in to take a look first.

Shen An isn't in there!

Let's go.

Song Ning!

You tried to kill! Your heart is so poisonous!

Not only did you plot against Liu Qiqi and make my Shen household lose a child,

Through hate, you tried to kill your husband twice!

Even if my household lets you stay, the heavens and earth won't!

What else do you have to say for yourself?

Originally it was my own choice to marry Shen An.

So whatever happens, I will take it all myself.

There's nothing I can really say.

Do whatever you'd like with me.

Song Ning!

Don't even think of leaving here alive today!

Before the execution, do you have any last words?

Please tell my big brother

that I was the one who chose this path. I don't regret it.

Please tell him to put this behind him. There is no need to get revenge for me.

As for Shen An...there is nothing I can say to him.

Good! You harmed two lives!

According to rules, you should be split apart by five horses!

Because it is through you that our two kingdoms were able to have good relations,

I'll let you go well on the path to hell!

Begin the execution!

There's no need.

I'll do it myself.

When they make their move, order the Blood Shadow Guards to save her!

Jun Fu, are you sure that it is to find that object

that you care about her?

So what if it is, and so what if it isn't?
