I didn't break my legs because of
an accident. I broke them myself.

I did that to make you stay with me
forever. Now you know what happened.

You broke your legs yourself?
Why were you so silly?

Even though I did that, nothing's changed.

As soon as you heard
Fuk Ling was in trouble,

you immediately left me to see her.

Don't be like this

I don't need your sympathy.

For my dad's sake,

even if I never stand up again, I
won't be a burden to you anymore.

Leave. I don't want to see you ever again.

Summer Palace.

Deling handpicked these prime
steaks for Your Royal Highness

to ensure that they would
immediately melt in your mouth.

She also said that it
would be really tasty

if you put some cherry
sauce on the steaks.

The steak really melts
in the mouth immediately.

Deling is really knowledgeable and lovely.
Whoever marries her will be a lucky man.

It's rare to have such nice western food.

Prince Chun, why didn't
you ask Youlan to join us?

So Zaifeng, how are preparations for
your wedding with Youlan coming along?

Right. It's been a long time since
there was a wedding in the palace.

Her Royal Highness treats
Youlan like her own daughter.

You should pick the wedding date soon
to fulfill Her Royal Highness's wish.

Don't disappoint her.

Your Highness, Premier
Yuan has come to visit you.

He's been waiting in the
study for some time already.

Your Highness.

Officer Yuan, why are you
giving me such a generous gift?

I heard that Your Highness is
marrying Officer Rong Lu's daughter.

This is just a petty gift.

You're so kind.

This is still premature. You'd
better take the gift back.

You're going to marry
Officer Rong Lu's daughter.

This is a happy event. You
should have the wedding sooner.

What's making you so hesitant?

Officer Yuan, why is marrying' Officer
Rong Lu's daughter such a happy thing?

His Majesty trusts you now.

Empress Dowager has assigned
important tasks to you.

You're already at the
top of the hierarchy.

If you become Officer
Rong Lu's son-in-law too,

it'll be even better for your career.

I can't believe you care
so much about my marriage.

I just hope that when you're
in power in the future,

you will remember my blessing
to you on your wedding.

I hope you will say a few kind words
about me in front of Empress Dowager.

Just that?

You're really smart.

As far as I know,

ever since Officer Li Hongzhang
died, his position has been vacant.

If you could recommend for me to be
stationed in the capital permanently

so that I don't need to be
away from my beloved concubine,

I would be so grateful.

Young people are of course romantic.

You're a young man.

It's natural that you'd
have many girlfriends.

But don't let romance
sabotage your future.

What's the matter? Why are you so
quiet? Keeping me company bores you?

Of course not.

I was just captivated by the stalactites.

I almost forgot that
Prince Chun is a ladies man.

I didn't expect you to come see me today.

Even if you don't keep your
fiancee company, I thought

you'd spend time with your dream lover.

I'm already with you now.
How could you still say that?

Fine. At least you're not totally
mesmerized by that fake-foreigner.

You still know your priorities.

Thanks to your care and advice.

Youlan, I thought Prince Chun

would come with you
to see Empress Dowager.

He's busy running the new administration.

He has countless meetings with the
consuls of various countries too.

How can he spare the time to come?

Deling, you don't need to
translate for Prince Chun today?

What? I...

That's Kot Kan over there. He's here.
That means Prince Chun's here too.

Let's go ask him.

Kot Kan.

Princess Wojia.

Why are you here? Where's Prince Chun?

Since he's in the Summer Palace,
Why didn't he go see Empress Dowager?

At least he should see
his fiancee. Right, Youlan?

I don't know. I just came here
to deliver a message for him.

It's late. I have to go.

He's running so fast. Am I that scary?

Can you really let go of your Miss Deling?

What do you want me to
say to make you happy?

I'm out to accomplish big things.
Romance is just an embellishment in life.

Don't worry.

I won't give up my bright future
for some minor embellishments.

Besides, I've got you.
I'm already very content.

I want to give you this house.

Kot Kan, I want to talk to
Miss Deling. Wait outside.

Yes, Your Highness.

Sit down over here. Well?
Do you like the house?

It's big and beautiful. I'm
sure nobody would dislike it.

If you like it, it's yours.

You mean you want to keep me
there as your mistress? I'm sorry.

I think you have the wrong idea about me.

Deling... Deling... Please listen to me.

Let go of me. I've heard enough of your
lies I don't want to hear them again.

I really didn't mean to lie to you.

I've already told Empress Dowager that I
would never marry anyone except for you.

But she wouldn't give me her
approval. I have no choice. So...

No choice?

If you're not willing, who
can make you get married?

You think I don't know?

You just can't give up
your fame and fortune

You can't give up your bright future.

Deling, please believe me. You'll
always be the one I love the most.

People say wives are trumped by
concubines and the latter by mistresses.

I can't believe this applies to me now. So
you want to carry on seeing me in secret?

I shouldn't be surprised about this.
You're used to such a secretive life.

Deling... what do you mean?

How long do you want to lie to me

about your dubious relationship
with Noble Consort Yu?

What gossip have you heard?

I didn't just hear it. I saw it too.

Can you really let go of your Miss Deling?

Romance is just an embellishment in life.

Don't worry.

I won't give up my bright future
for some minor embellishments.

Besides, I've got you.
I'm already very content.

You've got nothing to say now?

Deling, I really don't know
how to explain this to you.

But you must believe me. I
don't love Noble Consort Yu.

You're the only one I love.

Let go of me. I don't want
to listen to you anymore.

If you don't believe me, I have
no choice but to prove it to you.

Help... Help...

Your Highness, is everything OK?

Why did you come in?

I heard Miss Ling cry for help.
I thought there was an assassin.

Get out.

Miss Ling, that jerk Zaifeng
doesn't deserve your tears.

You're so kind. I'm sure you'll
meet your true love very soon.

I really don't understand. Is power
and position really that important?

Is it so important that he'd rather
give up the one he truly loves?

Miss Ling, there's actually someone
who would sacrifice everything for you.

He also likes you very much.

Kot Kan, I've been aware of
your feelings for me all along.

Too bad our feelings aren't up to us.

I've always treated you like an
older brother and a good friend.

I hope someday you will find a
girl who deserves your love more.

No. Actually I want to...

Kot Kan, please promise
me, let me leave by myself.

Hey, she's already
gone. Why are you crying?

I'm not crying.

Look at you. OK. Don't worry.
I won't tell anyone about this.

No, I'm trying to peel this thing.
I cry every time when I do it.

You look so funny. What is this?

Miss Ling's Japanese friend gave
it to her when she was in France.

Then she gave it to me.
It's a so-called onion.

I want to peel and eat it.

Look. It's just skin. There's no pulp.

It's good if you're really fine.

Not really. Actually I'm so mad at
Zaifeng. I thought he was a good guy.

I can't believe he treated
Miss Ling like that.

I know you really hate him. But he's
a prince. You mustn't offend him.

Don't worry. I will keep my
cool and continue working for him

to gather intelligence for you.

I told you I don't want
to get you involved.

I've thought it over clearly.

I want to do something for
the nation and the people.

I don't want what happened to Miss Ling

To happen again.

Do you understand? You peel this for me.

No. I don't want to cry. You look awful.

Leshou Hall.

Dr To, I don't know why

Her Royal Highness suddenly
threw up and got the runs.

Eunuch Li, apart from her usual diet,

did Empress Dowager eat anything
special or take any special medicine?

No.

Really?

No.

Dr To, I did take medicine prescribed by

Deputy Zhou from the Imperial Hospital

to control my diabetes.

All the medicine I prescribed for
Empress Dowager is written clearly there.

To Chung, take a closer look. See if
any of it might poison Empress Dowager.

All the herbs recorded
here are kidney supplements.

They don't conflict with
Empress Dowager's diet either.

This is a famous prescription

used to treat Emperor
Wu of Han's diabetes.

Empress Dowager's condition
improved a lot after she took it.

Then the medicine Deputy Zhou prescribed

has nothing to do with Empress Dowager
throwing up and getting the runs.

Empress Dowager's
condition could be serious.

If we don't find the cause, I'm afraid
the Imperial Hospital will be in trouble.

To Chung, you must find the
cause as soon as possible.

Brother To, I've examined these.
There's nothing wrong with all these.

These two are fine too.

There's only one way to find out.

Do I really have to drink this?

What if I throw up and get the runs
like Empress Dowager? What do I do then?

Shennong tasted thousands of herbs.

Later Li Shizhen tested
medicine by taking it himself

before he wrote the
Compendium of Materia Medica.

You should do that too,
unless you don't want to learn.

Who says I don't want to learn?

Brother Yam, please.

Please.

Youlan's lucky. She has
to arrange her wedding.

She doesn't need to practice
with this. She's spared.

Princess Wojia, why did you
finish the whole bowl of medicine?

What? Wasn't I supposed to finish it all?

If the medicine is bad,

you'll see the effect even
if you just take a few gulps.

What if I really get sick?

Then we'll see the effect sooner.

What?

I began throwing up and
getting the runs yesterday.

Oh, no. Am I sick like Her Royal Highness?

The princess's pulse is
really like Empress Dowager's.

But you and I took the
medicine too. Why are we fine?

So it's not the medicine?

Princess Wojia, apart
from taking the medicine,

did you eat anything special yesterday?

My period has been irregular lately.
So I took several baifeng pills.

Baifeng pills? Who gave them to you?

How do I know? I asked
Choi-yee to get them for me.

Empress Dowager gave you the pills
after you went to see her some time ago.

Empress Dowager gave you the
pills? Are there any left?

It seems this batch of baifeng
pills in the Longevity Pharmacy

is the same as the ones
in Prince Qing's Mansion.

There's a problem with a
portion of them. The rest are OK.

Then it's highly likely that

Empress Dowager and Princess
Wojia took the ones with a problem.

That's why caused them to
throw up and get the runs.

Brother Yam, please check to see

which drugstore supplied
this batch of baifeng pills.

OK.

According to the record here,

this batch of baifeng pills was purchased

after Empress Dowager
returned to the palace

The supplier is...

Which one?

Leung Tsai Tsan Clinic.

Leung Tsai Tsan Clinic.

Leung Tsai Tsan Clinic.

Look. These baifeng pills

are from the same batch that was
sold to the Imperial Hospital earlier.

The color is dark. The smell
is mellow. It's of top quality.

Of course. I inspected them myself.

Otherwise I wouldn't sell
them to the Imperial Hospital.

I wouldn't risk Leung Tsai
Tsan Clinic's reputation.

You're honest in the way you do business.

I don't believe you would sell inferior
products to the Imperial Hospital.

Why is there such a big discrepancy
among the same batch of baifeng pills?

Leung Tsai Tsan Clinic would
never produce inferior products.

Boss, there's trouble.
Some officers have come.

They threatened to close the
clinic and arrest the people here.

What's going on?

It's here.

Sir, I'm the owner here. What's going on?

You're the owner? So
you're Hung Kam-tsan, right?

Good. We have been ordered to
arrest the offender Hung Kam-tsan

for selling inferior medicine to
the Imperial Hospital. Arrest him.

Yes, sir.

Hey.

Why are you guys arresting my dad?

I never sold any inferior medicine.

Dad.

Boss.

Sir, is this a misunderstanding?

We're just acting on orders.

You can talk to the magistrate
if you have a problem with this.

Look. I'm Imperial Doctor To
Chung from the Imperial Hospital.

The commissioner ordered
me to investigate this case.

So far I haven't found any
evidence in Leung Tsai Tsan Clinic.

You don't have any evidence.
You can't just arrest him.

This is the official document
issued by our court. Read it.

Order of Shuntian Prefecture Yamen.

Request to arrest Leung Tsai Tsan
Clinic's owner Hung Kam-tsan is approved.

The Imperial Hospital filed a report.

We are arresting him and closing down
the clinic according to the court order.

The Shuntian Prefecture Yamen
is in charge of this case now.

I'm afraid it's beyond your
jurisdiction, Mr imperial doctor.

Sir.

Get out of my way.

Wai-Shan... Sir, my dad's innocent.

Take your hands off.

Pak-hop...

How dare you resist arrest!

Dad. Pak-hop.

Dad.

Don't hit me...

Don't obstruct us from
executing our duties. Take him.

Yes, sir.

No...

Don't arrest my dad.

Pak-hop.

Don't arrest my dad.

Let our boss go.

Look after my wife.

OK.

Dad.

Mrs. To.

Brother Yam, why did you do that?

I told you I would investigate
this at Leung Tsai Tsan Clinic.

Why did you file a report so soon?

You've got it all wrong.
I didn't file the report.

If you didn't, why would the officers
from the Shuntian Prefecture Yamen

go to Leung Tsai Tsan Clinic so soon to
arrest people and close down the Clinic?

Deputy Zhou came to ask
me about the investigation.

I had no choice but tell him.

Then he said this was serious. He
would report it to the Commissioner.

This is outrageous.

He's gotten my father-in-law
into deep trouble this time.

He's tainted the Imperial
Hospital's reputation.

To Chung, you found out that

Empress Dowager threw up and got the runs
because she had taken bad baifeng pills.

Those pills were sold by

your father-in-law's Leung Tsai
Tsan Clinic to the Imperial Hospital.

You should have immediately
reported that to the Commissioner.

But you tried to cover this up. What
was your intention in doing that?

I didn't mean to cover up anything.

I just don't want to jump to any
conclusions without concrete evidence.

The Shuntian Prefecture
Yamen will determine

whether there's concrete evidence.

You don't need to worry about that.

When Kwan Pak-chuen killed Granny Chan,

I handed him over to the
Ministry of Justice Yamen.

You said I told outsiders about the
scandal in the Imperial Hospital.

But now you've immediately reported
this case to Shuntian Prefecture Yamen.

That's a double standard.

It's different this time.
Empress Dowager is involved.

If we don't find the culprit quickly,
Empress Dowager will reprimand us.

Do you want the whole Imperial
Hospital to bear all responsibility?

I only did this to salvage the
Imperial Hospital's reputation.

I went to Leung Tsai Tsan Clinic to
check the same batch of baifeng pills.

I didn't find any problems.

I believe there's something
we don't know about this case.

We're just imperial doctors.
Investigating cases is not our duty.

To Chung, you went to Leung
Tsai Tsan Clinic on your own.

People might think you wanted
to tip off your father-in-law.

You had better draw a clear line with him.

Otherwise even His Majesty won't be able
to protect you. You better watch out.

Shuntian Prefecture Yamen.

Don't stay too long and
make my life difficult.

OK. Thank you.

Dad.

Don't hit me... I'm innocent.

Why was my father-in-law
beaten like this?

He wouldn't confess.
The magistrate was mad.

So he ordered him to be tortured.

He's so old. He can't
hang in there for long.

They want to torture him
into making a confession. Dad.

Don't hit me... I'm innocent.

Don't worry. It's Wai-Shan.

Wai-Shan, you must believe me.
The baifeng pills I sold were good.

Of course I believe you.

They accused me of selling bad
medicine like new ones. I didn't do it.

I won't admit to that even
if they beat me to death.

Think again.

Did you make any mistakes
during the production process?

Have you forgotten anything?

That's impossible.

The medicine was being sold
to the Imperial Hospital.

So I followed closely

the selection of ingredients and
the entire production process.

I even used prime
beeswax for the packaging.

So the baifeng pills shouldn't
have turned bad so soon.

Where does the problem lie then?

Wai-Shan, I'm most
worried about Pak-hop.

You must promise me to
take good care of her.

Don't worry.

I promise I will take good care
of her. I will never leave her.

I have your word now. I can die in peace.

Please don't say that. Get some rest.

It's not that I don't want to help you.
But the government has its own rules.

Now that the Shuntian Prefecture
Yamen is in charge of this case.

I shouldn't interfere with it.

They wanted to close the case.

So they tortured the
suspect for a confession.

This is in violation of the Qing Code.

Please stand up for the suspect
so that he can get a fair trial.

They are really over-zealous.

Kot Kan, deliver my written instructions
to Shuntian Prefecture Yamen later.

Remind them to remain
impartial in handling this case.

Yes, Your Highness.

Thank you for your help, Your Highness.

But this case involves
Empress Dowager. It's serious.

I'm afraid the Shuntian Prefecture
Yamen will presume the suspect guilty

in order to account for
this to Empress Dowager.

To Chung, if you want to
save your father-in-law,

you must find concrete evidence as
soon as possible to prove his innocence.

Thank you for the advice.
Goodbye, Your Highness.

Chuen Yan Clinic.

All the evidence is
against Hung Kam-tsan now.

I heard that you need to pay the officials

if you want to prove your innocence.

I'm afraid Dr To's father-in-law
will have to exhaust all his wealth

in order to get an acquittal.

The money doesn't matter if
he can really get an acquittal.

The problem is he may not be acquitted.

Ling's lucky she didn't
marry Dr To back then.

Otherwise she'd be in trouble too.

Please don't say such a mean thing.

There may be some truth in the rumor.

How do we know if Leung Tsai Tsan
Clinic sold fake medicine or not?

Aunt Chu, don't listen to the
rumor, OK? It's just hearsay.

Pak-hop's dad is in trouble
now. She must be so worried.

Dr To has to look after a wife

who can't walk. It's
already so burdensome.

Now he even has to run around to
try and save his father-in-law.

This is really tough for him.

Commissioner, please
ask Shuntian Prefecture

to return the baifeng pills
involved in this case to us

so that I can examine them.

I'm confident that I will
find out what happened.

The case isn't closed yet. My
father-in-law is still innocent.

I don't see any conflict between the two.

Shuntian Prefecture Yamen
has taken over the case.

I don't mean to interfere. I
just want to get to the truth.

I don't want an innocent person
to be wrongfully convicted.

To Chung, we understand that you
care about your father-in-law.

But you're an imperial doctor
in the Imperial Hospital.

You must act according to the rules here.
You shouldn't make unnecessary trouble.

Besides, Shuntian Prefecture Yamen

will decide if your
father-in-law is really innocent.

You had better stop making trouble.

You can't afford to get the
Imperial Hospital into trouble too.

Commissioner.

Deputy Zhou is right.

We can't risk the Imperial
Hospital's reputation.

Brother To...

Don't challenge the
Commissioner's decision again

or he will really expel you
from the Imperial Hospital.

Like I really care. My
father-in-law's being framed now.

I have to find evidence to prove
his innocence as soon as possible.

I know. But the Shuntian Prefecture Yamen

has taken all the baifeng pills
from the Imperial Hospital already.

Where can we find any evidence then?

Princess Wojia should have some.

I'll ask her to give them to me.

Brother To, I understand you're
desperate. But the sun's setting now.

It will be dark by the time you
get to Prince Qing's Mansion.

Let's go tomorrow morning, OK?

I know you're desperate
to save your father-in-law.

But someone needs looking after
even more. That's your wife.

Pak-hop, what happened?

Where have you been all day?
Dad's dead. Do you know that?

I saw him in the cell today. He was fine.

I didn't believe it either

when the Yamen sent
someone here to inform us.

Manager Lo went to the cell for me
and saw Dad's body. Can that be a lie?

The boss is dead. He even
signed a confession too.

Dad signed a confession?

Yes.

He told me he wouldn't do that.

He wouldn't admit it even
if they beat him to death.

I bet the people in the Yamen
want to hurry and close the case.

They tortured him into making
a confession. As a result...

You said you would save my dad.
Why has he died in the cell? Huh?

I'm sorry, Pak-hop. I failed to help Dad.

What's the use of
apologizing now? Dad's dead.

I've lost my only family member in the
world. Who else can I depend on now?

Dad, you died in grief...

Late father Hung Kam-tsan.
Late mother Mok Wan-choi.

I couldn't prove your innocence.

Leung Tsai Tsan Clinic has been
closed down by the government now.

Your life's work has
been ruined. I'm sorry.

Don't be so upset. Mind your health.

This is your fault.

If you hadn't investigated
the baifeng pills case,

Dad wouldn't have died.

This happened because of you. You got
my dad killed. Give me back my dad.

Don't worry, Pak-hop.

I've promised Dad I would
take care of you forever.

No matter how tough it may
be, I will be there for you.

Dad.

Princess Wojia, please think again.
Have you really asked everybody?

I have. I've even asked the Queen.
There's only one person I haven't asked.

Who?

Empress Dowager.

Right. But would Her Royal Highness
still have the questionable baifeng pills?

The problem isn't whether
she's still keeping the pills.

It's whether you guys
have the guts to ask her.

Actually I know where we can find

a huge quantity of the baifeng pills.

The Shuntian Prefecture Yamen.

You want to sneak in there to steal them?

You don't need to take
the risk to steal them.

We can talk to Prince
Chun. See if he can request

the Shuntian Prefecture Yamen

to re-try this case.

Then we can officially get
hold of the baifeng pills.

I've talked to Shuntian Prefecture Yamen.

Hung Kam-tsan already signed a
confession. He also died in custody.

So the case is already closed.

All the evidence in the case,
that is to say the baifeng pills,

has already been destroyed.

Sir, we can't find To Chung in the house.

Sir, my husband is a law-abiding person.

He's even an imperial doctor
in the Imperial Hospital.

You're so anxious to
find him. What's going on?

Someone reported to the Yamen that

To Chung withheld information in
the case of Leung Tsai Tsan Clinic

selling inferior medicine
to the Imperial Hospital.

He even assisted the offender
Hung Kam-tsan in escaping.

We suspect that To Chung
is an accessory in the case.

We want to arrest him for interrogation.

Sir.

That must be To Chung. Get him.

Come on.

It's not To Chung.

Aunt Ping.

What's going on?

They want to arrest Wai-Shan
and take him to the Yamen.

What?

What? Shuntian Prefecture Yamen sent
officers to my home to arrest me?

Why do you think I was
waiting outside your home?

Kot Kan's friend in Shuntian
Prefecture Yamen told him that

someone reported to the Yemen

and accused you of conspiring with
your father-in-law Hung Kam-tsan

in the sale of inferior medical
products to the Imperial Hospital.

That's why the Yeman officers
went to your home to arrest you.

Thank God I managed to
intercept you in time.

Otherwise you'd be locked
up in prison already.

This is ridiculous. My
father-in-law was already framed.

Now they want to do the
same thing to me too?

They're all corrupt.
Why wouldn't this happen?

I'll confront them in
Shuntian Prefecture Yamen now.

What do you mean confront them?

If you go there, you'll
just be put in prison.

They'll just torture you for a confession.

You might even die in the
cell like your father-in-law.

Oh, no. I'm in trouble myself.

How can I overturn the
case for my father-in-law?

A report was suddenly filed
against you with the Yamen.

I'm sure someone doesn't want you
to carry on with the investigation.

If I could find out who that guy is,

then there's a chance of reversing
the verdict against my father-in-law?

Find out? How? You're a fugitive
now. You can't go anywhere.

Let me investigate this for you.

I don't want to get you into trouble.

Get me into trouble?

I'm harboring a fugitive
now. I'm a fugitive too.

Besides, you're not as good as I
am when it comes to investigations.

But you just recovered from
your injury. I'm worried that...

What are you worried about? You
had better worry about Pak-hop.

She just lost her dad.

If she loses her husband too,
will she be able to take the blow?

Right. I didn't go home.
She'll be so worried about me.

Can you take her a message
and tell her that I'm safe?

No. The Yamen officers will
be watching your house now.

If I go there, I will just alert them.

Let's work out how to clear your name
first so you can see Pak-hop again sooner.

Leshou Hall.

Your Royal Highness, where would
you like to go for a walk today?

Do you two have any suggestions?

Let's go to Tower of Buddhist Incense.

You haven't been there in a long time.

Good idea. Let me pray for you
before your wedding, Youlan.

So you will have children
with Prince Chun sooner.

Thank you.

Your Royal Highness, we'll pray
in the Tower of Buddhist Incense

for your good health and longevity, OK?

Good girl.

Her Royal Highness goes out for
a stroll at this hour every day.

I will try to stall her. The
you can sneak into Leshou Hall.

Whether you find the baifeng pills

depends on how lucky you and To Chung are.

Her Royal Highness's health
has not been good lately.

So Li Lianying keeps her usual medicine

in the medicine cabinet behind her
bed in her bedroom just in case.

Bone supplement.

Blood supplement.

Pearl powder.

There are no baifeng pills?

This is that Cui Yugui's fault.

Now that he's gone, no one gets
Her Royal Highness's cape for her

I have to come get it myself.
He's caused me so much trouble.

I don't remember where it is... What?

How dare you, Fuk Ling! You
snuck into my bedroom to steal?

I know I'm guilty. Please don't be mad.

You show no fear at all.
You're not afraid of dying?

I am. But I had no
choice. I had to do this.

Fine. I'm listening.

I didn't sneak into your
bedroom to steal valuables.

I just wanted to see if there
were any baifeng pills left.

Baifeng pills?

You risked your life to help
To Chung overturn the case.

It appears your relationship
with him is not that simple.

Please don't get the wrong idea.

There's nothing between us.

Fuk Ling, your family ran a
bone-setting clinic for generations.

Too bad business got worse over time.

To help your father repay his debts,

you were forced to marry
To Chung as his concubine.

But on the wedding night,
you eloped with your lover.

A few years later, you
returned to the capital.

You even ran into To Chung again.
Is that correct? Let me tell you,

I send people to check on all
who have access to the palace.

I know everything they do or say.

Since Your Royal Highness knows
everything, I'll be candid with you.

It's true that I do love To
Chung. But he's already got a wife.

I can only say that we're not meant to be.

That's easy. It's common for a man
to have several wives and concubines.

You can marry him as his concubine
like you would have back then.

Then all problems will be solved.

If To Chung's wife were as
sensible as Your Royal Highness,

of course it would be
easy to solve the problem.

I see. So he's got a tiger wife.

That's why you want to help To Chung
overturn his father-in-law's case.

By doing this, you hope
you can move his wife

so she'll allow you marry To Chung?

I can't believe you can read my mind.

I'm much more experienced
than you. How can you fool me?

Too bad I've been caught now.

Actually I don't care about
whether I can marry To Chung or not.

I just don't want him to be framed
and die like his father-in-law.

I don't want Mrs. To to become a widow.

Treasure is easy to come by. A
devoted lover is hard to find.

You're willing to sacrifice
yourself to save your lover.

I'll pardon you for breaking into
my bedroom to commit theft then.

Much obliged, Your Royal Highness.
Please forgive me for asking.

Are you still in possession
of the baifeng pills?

You just cheated death. You're
still asking about the baifeng pills?

It seems you only have
To Chung in your heart.

Too bad I ordered people
to throw them all away

as soon as I found out there
was a problem with them.

That means...

I'm not finished.

As far as I know, someone is
secretly hoarding a lot of them.

The baifeng pills in this chest came
from the same batch that had a problem.

Take your time to examine them.

Wow, Li Lianying is keeping so many.

It looks like he's taken a lot of
things while working for Empress Dowager.

We have him to that for being so
greedy and keeping the baifeng pills

so that you now have a
chance to overturn the case.

Even God is helping you.

Thank you for taking the risk to help me.

If something bad happened to
you, I would really blame myself.

I'll say this one more time.

I didn't do it to help you.
I just wanted to help Pak-hop.

She's already lost her dad. I don't
want her to lose her husband too.

So why did Empress Dowager agree
to give you the baifeng pills?

I told him you were really pathetic.
I made you sound really pitiful.

Perhaps she felt bad for you.

Forget it if you don't want to tell me.
Please help me open the pills one by one.

This is strange.

The smell of the baifeng
pills hasn't changed at all.

Are you sure?

The smell is exactly the same.
There's no trace that it's turned bad.

Why do I somehow feel something's off?
Beeswax. The problem lies in the beeswax.
