Twisted Fate of Love

Episode 25

Dongyue.

Wen Xin.

What brings you here?

I heard you’re getting married,

so I’m here with your wedding gift.

I’m surprised

that you prepared something for me.

Here you are. I made it myself.

Oh, Prince Xinyao pitched in, too.

Thank you.

And please thank him for me.

Why does the bride have a gift

but nothing for the groom?

As an adult man,

are you seriously asking a kid for gifts?

Shame on you!

You...

I...

Why does she always give me that attitude?

I’m a minister after all.

Isn’t she always like that?

Just give up.

She’s mean to me,

but she’s more likable

than her father.

Wen Ye?

What about him?

Do you remember

there’s a shortfall in

weapons you took from the Third Prince?

I do.

Where’s the rest?

The Third Prince gave them to Wen Ye

who’s been collecting evidence against me.

There will be a confrontation between us.

I don’t want to implicate you and Wen Xin.

Wen Ye is upright. He isn’t evil.

But I am.

He’s misled

because he doesn’t know the whole truth.

Don’t mind him.

Why are you defending him?

Do you have feelings for him?

I’m not joking.

It’s not that I’m coming at him,

but the other way round.

Greetings, Your Highness.

Minister Fang, thanks for your help.

Your Highness,

I’m no longer who I used to be.

It’s so kind of you to trust me

to give me a chance

to serve you.

I’m forever grateful to you for that.

I’ve asked Wen Ye

to move the weapons to the prison in the Ministry of Penalty.

Good.

You can stick to the plan.

I’ll

take care of the rest.

If Feng Xi shows up,

he won’t get away with it.

Wen’s Mansion Master, she asked to see you.

Wen’s Mansion

We shouldn’t meet alone this late.

You’d better go back.

Mr. Wen,

I’m here for something important.

You can tell me here.

It’s going to take a while

because it concerns the Third Prince.

Follow me.

Wen’s Mansion

Minister Feng and Wen Ye are mortal enemies.

Why is Dongyue paying him a visit?

What did you say?

To let Feng Xi go? He’s corrupted!

I understand you two don’t see eye to eye,

but most people are wrong about Feng Xi.

Truth will come out eventually.

You think you can fool me?

Hadn’t it been for your relationship with Wen Xin,

I wouldn’t have let you in.

Once you bring Feng Xi down,

Minister Fang’s followers will control the court.

That’ll pose a serious threat to the Third Prince.

Throughout my life, I always live

with a clear conscience.

I’ll never collude with Feng Xi.

You should leave.

You...

You claimed that you have a clear conscience,

but have you never hurt anyone?

What are you implying?

Does the name Yin Lan ring a bell?

She and Yin Lan are almost identical.

Could they be related?

What’s your relationship with my late wife?

You valued your reputation so much

but Yin Lan ruined it

because she was from a brothel.

Your whole family mistreated her

and never accepted her as part of your family.

All that led to her tragic death.

Clearly, your reputation

overweighed an innocent life.

Enough!

Our family business has nothing to do with strangers.

But I’m not a stranger.

Feng Xi is aware that you’re on to him.

You’d better be careful.

My life isn’t perfect

and I’m not a sage,

but I’m dedicated to my ambition

to uphold justice

and serve the people

at the cost of my life!

I won’t change my mind

about those weapons.

On top of that,

they’ll be stored

in the safest place in the world.

If that’s the case,

I have nothing else to say.

Mother!

Can you hear me, Mother?

Mother! Talk to me, Mother!

Mother! Wake up, Mother!

Don’t leave me!

Mother!

Wen Xin,

your mother is gone.

But you still have me.

No!

You killed her!

You aren’t my father! I don’t have a father!

Mother!

Virtuous and Inclusive Mother, wake up!

Virtuous and Inclusive Knock it off!

You aren’t my father!

Mother!

Mother! Wake up, Mother!

Is Wen Ye so important

that you can’t get your mind off him?

What are you doing in my room?

Why did you visit him in the middle of the night?

I’m tired.

We can talk tomorrow.

If you don’t tell me,

I’ll level his place and ask him myself!

Are you insane?

Why are you so nervous?

I went to see him

to dissuade him from testifying against you.

He’s rigid and stubborn.

I don’t think he’d agree to that.

What made you think

he would in the first place?

There’s something strange

between you two

from the very beginning.

Do you still have a crush on him?

You’re so...

I’m done talking to you.

Who was it

that asked me to be completely honest?

What about yourself?

Wen Ye is my father.

What?

Is he old enough

to be your father?

He was, believe it or not,

but

that was eight years ago.

Eight years ago?

Then you and Wen Xin...

I am her.

I came back from the future.

During the Dingyuan Rebellion,

I almost got killed in battle.

It was Eryu who rebuilt my body

and sent me here

to change the past.

No wonder you could predict the future

because you already went through it.

Why didn’t you tell me earlier?

You might not believe me.

I believe

every word you said.

Still,

it sounds impossible.

The most impossible thing

in my life is to have met you.

What else couldn’t happen?

Can you stop acting against Wen Ye,

please?

Blood might be shed in robbery.

Without enough money,

why should we take such a risk?

This is a huge matter.

Kill everyone

in your way.

I understand.

Don’t worry about those weapons anymore.

I’ve had a plan.

You should go to sleep.

Alright.

Guard the weapons.

Don’t do anything stupid.

Hand them over.

Those bandits cannot take anything away.

To get your hands on those weapons,

get over my dead body first.

You just won’t back off, will you?

Fine, as you wish.

You...

I’ll explain it to you later.

He can’t die.

Secure the cargo first.

Yes.

Watch out!

Minister Feng,

nice to see you again.

Although you expelled me from the court,

I have tons of ways

to eliminate you.

So

how do you feel

being trapped here?

Sorry, I forgot

you’re only a masked robber now

without revealing your real identity.

But

if you beg me on your knees,

I might have mercy on you.

The longer we wait, the worse it gets.

We must do something.

I’m their target.

You leave with the weapons first.

Okey.

Be careful.

You know where to find me.

Go, seize Feng Xi!

Capture Feng Xi!

Where is he?

Where are the carts?

Go after him!

-Yes. -Yes.

Let me.

Where were you?

To save my father-in-law.

What happened to him?

Relax.

He’s fine.

I simply got back what he took.

You stole the weapons?

Without them,

there’d be no conflicts between us

and you wouldn’t be put in a tough spot.

Are you going out again?

I need to go to Pingkang House.

Zhaoyang Hall

Xinyao,

stealing and trafficking weapons are serious charges.

Can you prove Feng Xi did it?

Father,

I had recovered the lost weapons

but they were robbed last night.

You failed to keep them safe.

Don’t blame me for it.

Weren’t you guilty,

why would you try to

win Wen Ye over who knew where the weapons were?

As you know,

the late Mrs. Wen

and Dongyue went way back.

As her fiancé,

isn’t it natural for me to try to

get along with her old acquaintance?

It’s true that Minister Feng

did all that for me.

If you have nothing

to do with the robbery last night,

can you tell me

where were you

when it happened?

Why?

Should I report to you

before drinking with girls?

Feng Xi!

I thought you were caught up with work.

You had promised me

that you wouldn’t go to brothels again.

Why did you do that?

Who are you?

Who do you think you are?

Why should I go behind your back

to have fun?

Just because you’re my fiancée

doesn’t make you in charge.

I’m the one in charge!

Yes, everyone saw me drinking

and having fun at the Pingkang House

and I paid for all their drinks.

How could you?

You’ve never done this to me before.

But now, you’re sick of me and...

Stop!

I’ve seen enough of your charade.

I apologize, Your Majesty.

Feng Xi,

although you have witnesses,

don’t forget

when those weapons

were robbed,

someone else was also there.

Sinner Fang Yuan

pays respects to Your Majesty.

Rise.

Thank you, Your Majesty.

Last night, during the robbery,

Fang Yuan had troops go after the robbers

but failed to capture them.

I’m sure he still remembers them.

Fang Yuan, what do you know?

Your Majesty,

one of the masked robbers

was shot in the left chest.

The wound wouldn’t heal overnight.

Minister Feng can prove his innocence

by getting examined.

Do you dare, Minister Feng?

Last night, all those

at the Pingkang House were my witnesses.

Were they not enough?

Don’t change the subject!

Call the Imperial Physician.

How dare you!

Who are you to order a minister

to strip himself in public

for examination?

Even if you were reinstated,

we’d be of the same rank.

Are you above me now?

He isn’t

but I am.

Your Highness.

I’m His Majesty’s son

while you’re his servant.

You must obey my order.

You’re already wounded.

Why are you torturing yourself further?

To make everything look real.

I need everyone at the Pingkang House

to be my witness,

so I had a few drinks with them.

Can you rest now?

Let’s go.

I can’t.

Not until

the last key step is finished.

I would like you

to give me a tattoo.

I’m not a tattoo artist.

I can’t do it.

Ask someone else.

No way!

How could anyone else touch my body?

Don’t worry.

I’ll teach you.

Under the moon, in the gentle breeze,

the ilex tree blossomed.

Why that pattern

in particular?

A promise of life is empty

without proof.

With that tattoo,

wherever I am,

you’re always the closest to my heart.

It seems Your Highness

can’t take eyes off my body.

Feel free to enjoy what you see.

I apologize, Your Majesty.

Minister Feng,

no wonder you were reluctant.

I’m surprised that a manly man like you

would have a flower tattoo.

Your Majesty,

I went to the wrong person

for the job

and ended up like this.

You had it coming,

so no one else is to blame.

Yes.

Since I’ve made my choice,

that flower will stay with me forever.

The robber was shot in the left chest

while Minister Feng’s tattoo

is on the same spot.

That can’t be a coincidence, can it?

The examination has ruled

Minister Feng out as expected.

Your Highness, I suggest you

focus on capturing the real criminal.

You...

I agree.

This is a mistake.

A misunderstanding.

In this case,

let’s call it a day.

Minister Feng,

don’t take it to heart.

Of course not, Your Majesty.

The Third Prince and Minister...

and Fang Yuan were doing their job.

I wouldn’t mind.

Minister Fang it is.

Given that he’s always been diligent

and he’s reflected on himself during the confinement,

I’m giving him

another chance to redeem himself.

Thank you, Your Majesty.

Your Majesty’s kindness

is our bliss.

Minister Fang,

congratulations!

Thank you, Minister Feng.

We’re like His Majesty’s arms,

so we should move in coordination

to share his burden.

Your Majesty, that...

Thank you so much, Your Majesty.

Feng Xi used that tattoo to cover his wound.

We could’ve got him exposed.

Why did you stop me?

Please calm down, Your Highness.

We can’t prove he stole those weapons.

Right now, he’s powerful

and favored by His Majesty.

That case alone is unlikely to

bring him down once and for all.

Are you going to let him be

until he controls the entire court?

A snake, if not dead, will bite again.

We can’t make that kind of mistake.

To kill that snake Feng Xi,

either we wait,

or we destroy him completely,

leaving him no chance to bite again.

Judging from your tone,

you seem to have had a plan.

This time,

he’s doomed

if not killed.

I suppose

no one else will get hurt, will they?

Do you mean Dongyue?

You have nothing to worry about.

Care to elaborate?

Sometimes, the timing matters more

than the method.

Your Majesty,

I wouldn’t dare to disturb you this late

for myself,

but Feng Xi and Lu Yuantong’s dealing with arms

concerns our national safety.

Precautions must be taken.

Since they met at the Zhuming Post,

Feng Xi’s political fortune

has been on the rise.

Even Marquis An

and Yin Shi were his stepping stones.

He must be behind

their deaths.

Are you saying...

Whatever he’s up to,

he must be connected with the Ming family.

Do you think this matter is too sensitive

to be looked into

if not by you?

It’s my duty

to protect Your Majesty’s reputation.

Alright.

Right now, Feng Xi is too powerful.

It’s time to

restore the balance.

Thank you, Your Majesty.

Your Highness.

Your Highness?

You didn’t answer me,

so I thought you were out.

I was lost in thought.

What brings you here?

You must be too busy

to remember writing prayers.

Qingxiao,

from now on,

you don’t need to prepare for that.

Your Highness, are you that occupied?

If I continue to slack off,

I’ll always be a weak idler

in the eyes of others,

a loser

who can’t master his own fate.

In my eyes,

you aren’t weak.

You’re benevolent.

Don’t belittle yourself.

After being tricked by Feng Xi over and over,

I’ve finally realized

benevolence

is equal to weakness!

Why are you giving me that look?

You don’t recognize me?

You do seem different today.

The only thing I’ll be writing next

isn’t prayers

but imperial decrees and edicts.

I thought you were caught up with work.

You had promised me

that you wouldn’t go to brothels again.

Why did you do that?

Who are you?

How come I felt

strange to her for a moment?

Your Excellency,

Lu Chuan at the Court History Bureau is outside.

Ziyuan,

do I look old?

Your charm is well-known.

How could you look old?

Have I shown signs of aging?

Come to think of it,

you have a few grey hairs.

Are they many?

Where are they?

At the back. You can’t see them.

Remove them quickly.

Now!

Your Excellency,

how come you’re so sensitive about

your age and look all of a sudden?

Get rid of them all.

Daole’s Letter

“Ziyuan, I’ve arrived in Huainan.

It’s hot here

but the oranges are sweet.

Don’t worry about me. Take care”.

Chuzhou

Bozhou

Huainan

My Lord, here comes your cubilose.

Put it there.

Why are you having cubilose?

I’ve never had any supplements,

but

lately, someone called me old.

Ever since we met,

your look hasn’t changed a bit.

You don’t have any wrinkles

or grey hairs,

while my hairs

have started to turn grey.

That’s the circle of life. It’s normal.

It’s just that I’m abnormal.

Don’t compare yourself with me.

Before we met,

I was the youngest official above the third rank.

And never did I worry about my look.

I’m not afraid of getting old,

but I’m afraid

I’ll age faster than you.

You’re worrying too much.

You’ll always be this young.

I hope I won’t age too quickly

so that we won’t look too ill-matched.

I’m made of lotus roots.

Technically, I’m not even a human.

Are you fine with that?

Whether you’re a human, a demon

or an immortal,

I always love you

for who you are.

Wen’s Mansion

Wen Xin.

Virtuous and Inclusive

Where are you going?

To play games with my friends.

Such as?

Chief Constable Wang’s son.

We met a few days ago.

His friends will be there, too.

What’s his name?

I didn’t ask.

Liar!

Other than the Third Prince and Dongyue,

do you have friends of your age?

I’m friendless because of you!

Dongyue is staying at the Feng’s.

That Feng Xi

is a notorious villain.

Do you know how dangerous it is

to be around him?

Don’t go see them again.

I’m going!

I’ll only say this one last time.

You can’t. Go back to your room!

I won’t!

Master,

your sedan is waiting outside.

It’s about time.

Ground her.

-Yes. -Father.

No, Father!

Don’t lock me in there!

Please!

I can’t be in there again!

Father, don’t do this to me! Father!

Let me go! I’m not going in there!

No! Let me go!

No! No!

Miss Wen,

I’m sorry.

No!

No!

Please let me out!

I’m begging you!

Let go, or you’ll lose your fingers!

No!

No!

What’s wrong?

Are you stung?

Let me out!

Let me out!

Please let me out!

Let me out!

Let me out!

Let me out!

Let me out!

Don’t lock me in here!

You look unwell.

I can’t breathe.

It’s stuffy and airless in here.

Let’s go out for a walk.

I’m fine.

You’re busy.

Work is more important.

Not as important as you.

Let’s go.

Are you feeling better?

Much better.

Don’t be nervous.

You forgot

what I’m made of?

Even if you’re immortal,

I can’t stand seeing you suffer.

Besides,

you can’t heal yourself anymore.

What’s wrong?

It’s Wen Xin!

She’s in trouble!

Wen Xin?

I’m her.

If she’s unwell, then so will I.

I get it.

She needs help!

Wen Xin!

Wen Xin!

Wen Xin!

Wake up, Wen Xin!

Isn’t it common

for kids to be grounded?

Why is it so scary to her that she fainted?

I remember

the first time I was grounded

was on the day my mother passed away.

My mother wouldn’t have died!

Let go of me!

Let me go!

Don’t take me here!

I need my mother!

Let me out!

Let me out now!

Let me out now!

I don’t know

how long I was in there.

All I remember is

-I was desperate. -Let me out!

Let me see my mother!

As if the whole world had abandoned me.

You weren’t afraid of that

but being completely helpless.

Back then,

I thought if I could get out,

I’d be able to save my mother.

You were too young.

It wasn’t your fault.

Thank you.

Just like you,

I also lost my mother

when I was little.

I’d be sad

whenever I thought of her passing.

You know how I got through it?

I was born weak.

Whenever I was sick,

my mother would tell me stories in her hometown.

I still remember

it was those stories

that pacified me every time.

An old man had a donkey.

One day, he met a boy who kept an eagle.

He asked that boy,

“hey, kid,

I’ll give you my donkey

in exchange for your eagle, deal?

That boy replied,

“of course not.

My eagle is much better than your donkey”.

You never feel insecure again

because you’re no longer

a helpless boy.

You can try to recall

things your mother did for you.

Such as

a toy she made

or a song she sang.

All that can support you.

She never told me stories

but she always

flew kites with me.

When Wen Xin wakes up,

we can take her to fly kites.
