It seems that Lord Yuzhang

still can't

let go of the incident of the hunting ground

In such a situation

The emperor had ordered the vassals and the chiefs of noble class

to offer sacrifices to the dead of the army

Since ancient times, emperors only offered sacrifices to the heaven and earth, and ancestors

No one has done this before or since

What else does he want?

At this situation, everyone present

and even all the noble class of Cheng

are all controlled by the low class

with no other choices at all

Is there nothing we can do?

Maybe there is another one

can have a try

Father, you call me

About Nine-Tinware Bestowment

is there any news in the court?

They were all blocked by Wen Zongshen

It was not delivered to the emperor

But the news is already out

Rumors are rife now

The Wen Zongshen

I will see how long he can keep this secret

Go

Father called me here

Is it only for this matter?

And

the Gu's family has declined

If you want to reconsider your marriage

Gu Caiwei is not a good choice

I understand

Now it is widely said that

the Lord has asked the emperor for Nine-Tinware Bestowment

Do you think this is the Lord's intention?

How is it possible?

Don't you know what temper our Lord is?

It must be the crafty sycophants who haunted

to make the emperor and the court

suspicious of our lord

Who on earth is he?

That needs to be closely investigated

But I think

it's just those of noble class

All these year

the Lord guarded the border to counteract the rebellion

and had done so great contribution to Cheng

Why do the noble class bear grudges against the Lord?

Because what they are really afraid is

the low class come into power

Lord

Those who spread rumors

no matter how high their status is

are just vile characters

Forget it

It must be someone who have spread rumors

to frame the lord

Yaoer

if something needs explaining

whatever you say

it won't work

Just let them spread

When the things get big

the people behind will reveal themselves

Prime Minister Wen has come to see the Empress again

I heard that Princess Yuzhang is here

I have something important to see Princess Yuzhang

Go and report it

Yes. Prime Minister Wen

Princess, Prime Minister Wen is here to see you

He is waiting outside

Princess Yuzhang

Prime Minister Wen came to Yongan Palace to look for me

It must be on urgent business

Yes, I asked to see Your Highness

for Lord Yuzhang, for the emperor

and for Cheng

Did princess know that

the capital is full of rumors these days?

Didn't Prime Minister Wen say it was a rumor?

There are no waves without wind

Did princess really not know?

How was your bedfellow on his return?

The lord is like reborn

Everything is reasonable

Princess, you don't know

Recently

there were three memorial

which asked the Nine-Tinware Bestowment for Lord Yuzhang at the same time

I, on behalf of all civil and military ministers and all the people

begged the princess to persuade Lord Yuzhang

Prime Minister Wen, please don't

Princess, I know

You both have resentments in your heart

As for the incident in the hunting ground

it is the emperor and courtiers of Cheng who are guilty for Lord Yuzhang

for the soldiers died in the hunting ground

But now Cheng is in turmoil

and can no longer withstand any difficulties

Moreover, princess as one of the royal family

and Wang's family, is also Princess Yuzhang

You can't let Cheng

go down like that

Prime Minister Wen

Lord Yuzhang will never do that

Please princess

For the sake of the country and the people

please do not refuse

OK. I promise you

I will look for an opportunity to persuade Lord Yuzhang

Rise, please

As long as princess promises

there is hope for everything

I, on behalf of all the people, thank you princess

Nine-Tinware Bestowment

Xiao Qi will never do that

Who on earth is stirring up trouble?

Concubine, this is a new medicine prescribed by Doctor Shen

For miscarriage prevention

Concubine, Lord Jiangxia sent someone to ask you

to go to Jiangxia Mansion for a chat

Lord Jiangxia?

Yes

For me?

Concubine Su has arrived. Go and report

OK, OK, OK

Steward. -What are you doing?

Why are you in panic?

Su Jin

No, Concubine Su has arrived

Su Jin'er?

Over the years, all successive empresses

come and go to my Wang's House

What's the fuss about her being a concubine?

It is said that

But after all, she is pregnant with the descendant of the emperor

I'll check it out

Greetings, Concubine Su

Your highness, please

We are all old friends, don't be too polite

Yes

This is where Concubine from

This is your side of the family

It's comforting that you're still thinking about your family

Where's Lord Jiangxia?

You mean the head of the family?

He's at home

Do you want him to come out in person?

Concubine, please

I know the way

Wangan, why did you bring me here?

They're sweeping the front hall

Please wait here for a moment

Master will be here soon

Please

Jin'er

Jin'er

Jin'er

Lord Jiangxia

This is your side of the family

You, me

and Awu

the three of us grew up in this yard together

Though we used to be master and servant

you can completely take me

as your big brother

You can tell me

whatever you have in your mind

But you have to remember that

your secret is also our Wang's secret

We should keep this secret together

to hide it from anyone

Lord Jiangxia, why don't you get this straight?

Tell me

how long have you been pregnant?

I've been pregnant

for seven months

But as far as I know, it has been nine months

It's all said that lies are easy to make up

while the truth is hard to hide

Do you really think

you can cheat the imperial physician?

If I'm right about the time

nine months ago

it was exactly the incident of Lianyu Mountain

You and Awu escaped from the capital at that time

Our current emperor was on his way from the imperial mausoleum to the capital

You couldn't meet each other at all

How could you be inexplicably pregnant?

I know I shouldn't have told you this

to remind you of the unpleasant past

But I want to tell you that

when you give birth to the baby next month

the imperial physician will naturally tell the emperor that

it is premature

The emperor will not doubt it

It will be a foregone conclusion by then

and you'll be in power with the help of your kid

As for what happened nine months ago

you can let it go

How do you want me

to repay you for doing so?

I hope you can

help me get the jade seal

What do you want with the jade seal?

Well, you have your secret

I have my own sore subject

But what I can tell you clearly is that

whatever happens

I'll never hurt the emperor

Are you sure you won't hurt Zitan?

Your highness

Count Suyi, please

These are

secret letters Zitan wrote to Helan Zhen

These are irrefutable evidence that he colluded with foreign enemies

to kill the late emperor and frame Xiao Qi

Where did you get these?

It doesn't matter

We Wang's Family have our own means

The ringleader of the Lianyu Mountain Incident

is really the emperor!

Zitan, the beastman

He killed his brother

With these evidence

I'm afraid that

Zitan will lose his throne

Xiao Qi once took an oath

He swore in front of the graves

of these dead comrade-in-arms

that he would kill the real murderer

to offer sacrifices to the soldiers in Ningshuo

So you have to inform him now

Count Suyi's mission is to send this letters

to Xiao Qi in person

and tell him

you've worked so hard to find them

Prime Minister

Does it have to be me?

You are the one Xiao Qi trusts the most

He won't doubt it if it were you

But I've never visited him

since he came back

I think there's already a rift

between him and me

Therefore

you should actively

ease the relationship between you two

These are all the evidence he has been unremittingly searching for

You're doing him a big favor by giving these to him

He will certainly appreciate you

Your highness

The Majesty has been low-spirited

since he met Princess Yuzhang the other day

He ignored the government affairs and got drunk everyday

What if it endangers his health?

Shut up

Your highness

Concubine Su, the emperor ordered that

he wouldn't see anyone

I heard the emperor was drunk in Shiqian Palace

so I specially brought some sobering soup

Um

You can't afford it if you scared the emperor's kid

If the emperor blames you, I'll take it for you

Concubine, please

Your Majesty

Your Majesty, I'm here to bring you the sobering soup

Your Majesty?

Your Majesty

Please don't go

Awu

Awu

With the jade seal

I can take my rightful place as the emperor

Father

if you really do this

there will be no turning back

Do you think we two

have a way out now?

Then what should we do

after we have the jade seal?

Go and get Song Huaien here

Yes

Your Majesty

Who was here last night?

Your Majesty, only Concubine Su has been here

Your highness

Here is the emperor

Your Majesty

Was that you?

Tell me, did you do this?

Your Majesty

I was forced

You were forced?

Who forced you?

It's just you forcing yourself

That's right

It's me

Shouldn't I do it?

If she comes to the palace again

I'll pour it on her myself

You're not as good as her forever

Shoulders down

Shoulders down

and hold your breath

Shoulders down

Hold it

Take a break

I'm not tired

I want to revenge for

General Guanglie and those dead soldiers who are innocent

You're great

keep practicing

Yes

Brother, I want to practice too

You do?

Okay

Do you want to see this?

Come here

Don't encourage him to take a revenge

he's just a kid

and you can't let him live in hatred

In Lianyu Mountain

he witnessed the soldiers dying with wrongs

His hatred is already there

even without my inculcation

just like this

Must you

take the revenge?

Yes

If the enemy

is not an ordinary people

Yeah, just like this

Xiao Qi

you have to hold firmly

Xiao Qi

like me, look

For example, it's Wen Zongshen

Wen Zongshen?

He's unable to do that

What if it's my brother?

Take the bow with your left hand

I said

Yeah

No matter who is it

What's the matter with you?

I'm just worrying

what if it's someone we are close to

Like me

No

You're mind-absented

Are you tired?

What happened?

Just tell me

You don't have to take it yourself

Xiao Qi

Come on, take a look at

I tell you

Your Highness

there'll be the anniversary of the death of aunt princess days later

The room of aunt princess was locking for years

and it has been sitting gathering dust

I wanna go over there and clean it up

Thanks for your hard work

A few days ago

Zitan summoned you

The issue about the capital

can be known by our family

Prime Minister

I wanna ask

if Xiao Qi rebels

what do you plan to do?

Zitan might not the be the legitimate successor

but he's emperor now

If Xiao Qi rebels

I will announce the war proclamation

to call together all the military forces of Jiangnan

to come to capital and crusade against the rebel

Take out the imperial edict

and set Jing'er up on the throne

The imperial edict?

How don't I know about this?

I

never do anything that I'm not sure

or I will fail the

alliance between me and Count Suyi

I understand

Thank you

Please

Good

Who?

Who is it?

Good boy. Don't cry

Wang An?

Aunt Xu

Why are you here?

I

Master came back from the capital

he found this yard quiet

so he rented this attic

for treating some important guests

I serve here if I have nothing to do

Don't cry. -Who's the child you hold?

Is it JIng'er?

What Jing'er?

It is Jing'er

Jing'er, don't cry, don't cry

Didn't Lord Jiangxia say

Jing'er was entrusted by a reliable family?

Why he's here now?

I don't know either

Aunt Xu

Don't cry, don't cry

Lord Jiangxia

Good boy, don't cry

Since I come back from Jiangnan

I've been thinking Jing'er

is the only son of previous emperor

Now it's all turmoil and chaos of war in Jiangnan

It's more secure

to keep him staying by my side

So I ask people to bring him back from Jiangnan

Count Suyi

You can't let Aunt Xu see you

If Awu and her husband know you're with me

the consequences can be imagined

Why didn't you inform Lord Yuzhang Mansion about that?

If the princess knows Jing'er is back

how happy she should be

Hold on

Aunt Xu

Let's talk about this outside

Lord Jiangxia, you should leave Jing'er to me

Aunt Xu

Aunt Xu

What are you doing?

Aunt Xu

Wang An

Get the doctor, fast!

Yes

Aunt Xu

Aunt Xu

Take good care of Awu

Aunt Xu

Aunt Xu

To bury aunt Xu

in the grave next to your mother's

She had been serving aunt princess the whole life

She can stay with her after she died

Count Suyi

You can't stay here for too long

Let's clean it up

A Yue

Yes

Do you have any information about Aunt Xu?

Not yet

Pang Gui went to the Ci'an Temple to find

The doorman said he didn't see Aunt Xu coming out of the temple

But they can't find her inside of the temple either

It's weird

Go and prepare for the carriage

The carriage?

I'll find her by myself

Yes

I will go with you

Ok

Master

the old master stays in Qiufeng village tonight

where's the stronghold of undercover of Wang's family

It's broken

but safe

Where's Aunt Xu?

Qingyun

buried her

at the back of the mountain for now

Master

I feel bad about it

Back at that time

me and Aunt Xu

got into the Prime Minister Mansion

to serve old master and aunt princess

More than twenty years passed

I can't picture

the moment

She died all of a sudden

Master

if princess doesn't see Aunt Xu

she definitely willl look for her

Get out

Lord. Princess

We've found all the places in palace

but still don't find Aunt Xu

Xu came here this early morning

and she cleaned up the room of aunt princess

Since she's familiar with the environment

we didn't send people to accompany her

and we don't know when she's gone

But someone heard

baby crying inside of the room

The room of my mother

You sure you've looking out carefully?

Over there...

Over there

it's a little bit inconvenient

Lord Jiangxia temporarily lives here

Brother?

Who is it?

Princess, why are you here?

You really are here

Where's my brother?

Awu

What are you doing here?

Brother

Aunt Xu was missing

I come to find her

What happened?

Isn't the anniversary of mother's death days later?

Aunt Xu said she wants to come and cleans the room up

but she didn't come back yet

We go out in the daytime, too

but we didn't see her

Why are you staying here?

I've been dreamed of mother lately

I guess she misses me

So I come to Ci'an Temple which is closer to her

and I can keep her company

Why didn't you tell me?

I can live everywhere myself

Not like you

if you also move here

Lord Yuzhang won't be happy

The elderly nun told me

there's baby crying from the room

I haven't heard that
