The Sword and the Brocade

Episode 36

Duke Mao's Mansion

What on earth

were you doing?

Did you really have to make

her furious when she was already like that?

Wuniang,

a potent drug is needed

while one's seriously sick.

Alright. Let me take you back.

Let's go.

Duke Mao's Mansion

Very well.

No one would care about her again.

When she's dead,

the entire Wang family

will belong to me and my son.

Unrivaled Beauty with Heavenly Aroma

Amber.

Get someone to keep an eye on the Wang family.

Let me know if there's anything.

Yes, Your Ladyship.

Given what you just said,

I think you've known

what I'm going to do.

I don't dare

to take a guess of your thoughts.

I just thought

that when someone plays nice,

the other should use threats.

I think Your Ladyship

just wanted to provoke Lady Erniang.

With Your Ladyship's personality,

of course you won't leave her alone.

You know me so well.

Your Ladyship.

Mr. Lin is here.

Mr. Ou.

Qifu Tea House

Please enjoy.

I've always wanted

to apologize to you.

Because of me, you had to withdraw from Xianling Pavilion.

Sorry I caused you the trouble.

Our business is getting busier.

I was going to quit anyway.

Madam Xu, you don't have to feel

sorry for that.

By the way,

when I was at Xianling Pavilion

and checking the account with Master Jian,

she told me

that you seldom went there lately.

Is there anything happened at home?

Nothing happened at home.

It's just that Erniang...

Young Madam Wang?

I've also heard of it.

Speaking of that,

our Ou family has something to do with it.

I'm really sorry.

It's not your fault.

You don't need to apologize.

Actually, ever since Wang Yu died,

Erniang has been having

a difficult life in the Wang family.

She's a strong woman

and she wouldn't accept our help.

She's also seriously ill.

Is she seriously ill?

Has she seen a physician?

Don't know what kind of

physician the Wang family found for her.

She's been taking medicine,

but her condition

hasn't got any better.

I found a physician for her,

but she refused to see him.

The other problems can be fixed.

But when it comes to treatment,

it needs her cooperation.

Don't worry about that.

As long as she takes medicine,

it can be solved.

You have an idea?

Virtue of Modesty and Patience

Ou Yanxing's idea is good.

If Erniang is willing to take medicine,

she will get better.

I was going to discuss it with you first.

But I bumped into

Mr. Ou on my way home,

so I had a chat with him.

My Lord, if you think it's okay,

I'll do it.

Erniang treats you so badly,

yet you still care about her this much.

You've never blamed her?

I have.

But we are sisters after all.

And she's a poor woman.

I don't want her

to be bullied by others.

It's the luckiest thing

for Erniang

that she has

a good sister like you.

My Lord, am I good

at everything in your eyes?

I guess.

It's not bad at least.

Your Ladyship.

Lady Shiyi.

Jinlian.

I call you over today

to ask you one question.

Do you want to save your Young Madam?

I'm willing to do anything

to save her.

Luckily, Erniang has you by her side.

Jinlian.

I'm about to die.

But I'm worried about you

the most.

Just leave this troubled place.

No one can protect you anymore

after I'm dead.

I won't leave.

Young Madam,

I have medicine here.

You will get better

after taking this.

Medicine?

What medicine?

I... I met a roving physician

on the street.

He gave me a secret prescription

specially for your illness.

There's no such secret prescription.

Jinlian,

no need to bother.

At this point,

just let it be.

Young Madam,

don't you remember

how Lady Shiyi

laughed at you?

She said you were a coward

who complained all the time.

If you give up like this,

she will get her way.

Are you really

going to let her look down

upon you?

What did you say?

Young Madam.

If you gave up

like this,

you would

completely lose

to Lady Shiyi.

Do you want that to happen?

As long as you get better,

you'll still have a long way to go.

And one day,

you will make those people who despise you

pay for what they did.

Young Madam,

please don't give up.

Young Madam.

You are right.

I can't let them look down upon me.

No matter what,

I have to give it a try.

I can't let Shiyi

laugh at me.

The medicine.

Give me the medicine.

Here, Young Madam.

Duke Mao's Mansion

Here.

This roving physician

is really good.

You've only taken the medicine for a few days

and you've already

got much better.

They all want me to be dead.

But I must get better.

When I'm well again,

I'll kick

that woman out for sure.

How come

there's no one is this yard?

Young Madam,

you just got a little better.

If that Lady Wang-Liu finds it out,

she'll harm you again.

Now, hurry to lie down.

Greetings, Young Madam.

I'm just here to see

if you are getting any better.

Young Madam's condition

is worsening day by day.

And now,

she can't even speak.

Madam, please be kind

and find another

physician for Young Madam.

Young Madam's condition

keeps worsening.

Even the best physician

won't be able to save her.

Just

take good care

of her.

Here.

Precious Breezes and Dew of the Moon

Looks like she doesn't have much time left.

Keep a close eye on her.

Don't make any mistakes.

Yes.

When the Superior Man eats, he does not try to stuff himself;

at rest he does not seek perfect comfort;

he is diligent in his work and careful in speech.

Tell me.

Have you forgotten

the things you've learned?

But Confucius also said,

food and beautiful things are basic human desires.

Eating is a basic need for human beings.

It's just your excuse.

That's not what Confucius meant at all.

Who taught you that?

Mother.

Nonsense.

Your mother wouldn't misinterpret

Confucius' words.

Mother.

My Lord.

Why are you angry again?

I'm not angry.

Master Zhao has been waiting

for him to go to the class,

but he's messing around here.

My Lord,

Zhun is still a kid.

It's normal that he likes playing.

A kid who likes playing is usually smart.

He skipped classes for two and a half days

when he's supposed to study for three days.

Does that sound smart to you?

Master Zhao is going to leave out of anger.

What do you think we should do?

My Lord,

why don't we let Yu and Zhun

study together?

For one,

Yu is older than Zhun.

He can be a good example for him.

For two,

Yu's teacher Master Kong

hasn't been available for long

because his mother is ill.

We can't let Yu fall behind

in his study.

If they go to school together,

they can keep each other's company.

Yu,

would you like

to study together with your brother?

Yes, I would.

I will study hard

and I will encourage my brother to do so.

Now, rise.

In the future, you two will study together.

I will let Concubine Wen know.

Yes, Father.

I don't agree

with you two.

Although we can't let Yu

fall behind in his study,

Yu and Zhun have different status.

They should be taught separately

so that they can both learn what they need.

Otherwise, if we put them together,

it'll cause a lot of trouble in the future.

Think about it.

So many brothers of prominent families

fought each other

to the point that their families got destroyed.

You should learn from those lessons.

Mother.

Cao Cao attached more importance to Cao Zhi than Cao Pi,

that's why Cao Zhi came up with the Seven-step Poem.

If Cao Cao had treated them equally,

Zhi and Pi would've had

a firm tie of brotherhood

and built a strong bond.

If they had worked together as a team,

the Wei Dynasty would've had a promising future.

I understand

that because you are an illegitimate daughter,

you think the kids should be treated equally.

But these are the rules

set by our ancestors.

There must be a reason for that.

It's not that simple.

Mother, you are right.

But just because

I had similar experience,

I understand more

that the conflict between siblings

is not because they have

different status,

but because of the lack of communication.

So you mean

I'm wrong,

or the rules are wrong?

Mother.

It's actually my idea.

Zhun likes to play.

Yu, on the other hand,

is diligent in study.

If they can

study together,

Yu can be a good example

for Zhun,

which will only do good to Zhun.

Since you've made

a decision,

I won't interfere anymore.

Mother,

you are the pillar

of our Xu family.

That's right, Mother.

You watched

all the children growing up.

There are so many things I don't know

and I still need to learn from you.

Shiyi,

you've done an excellent job.

You don't need

an old woman like me

to teach you anymore.

I'm still inexperienced.

The bridges you've crossed are even more

than the paths we've walked.

How can I compare to you, Mother?

Alright.

Let's start eating.

You two are echoing

each other's words,

which is even more interesting

than the play I watched.

Here.

Virtue of Modesty and Patience

Yu is gentle and kind.

He looks more like a scholar.

I think taking the imperial exams will be suitable for him.

My Lord, you spent most of the time on the battlefields.

You don't know your kids well enough yet.

Now that you've been transferred back,

you can talk to them more

when you have time.

I think they'll surprise you.

Yu is not a little kid anymore.

I can't let him study

with Zhun all the time.

I'm going

to send him to the Jinxi Academy

in Leshan next year.

Next year?

Yu is only ten years old,

and you'll send him to such a far place

to study?

An uncut gem goes not sparkle.

Besides, Master Jiang in the Jinxi Academy

is well-known for his wisdom

and characters

among the scholars.

Ambitious men should aim far.

Studying there will help him

open his eyes

and broaden his mind.

It'll do nothing bad but only good

to his future.

That makes sense, My Lord.

Actually,

I also have other concerns.

What concerns?

The Wen family do business on the coast all the year round.

They must have some

sort of business connection with the Ou family.

Concubine Wen has been restless since she

married into our Xu family,

which makes me

a little confused.

My Lord, you still suspect that Concubine Wen

is the informer of the Ou family?

I'm not sure.

But I can't rule that possibility out either.

So you want to send

Yu away

in case he's used.

Madam,

Yu is such a great kid.

Although he's asked to study together with Zhun,

everybody can see

that our Yu

is much more diligent than Zhun.

Of course.

If my Yu weren't this

outstanding,

His Lordship wouldn't value him this much.

Our Yu

is just as good as the others.

He deserves it.

Since His Lordship

thinks so highly of Yu,

I need to seize the opportunity

and find him a wife from a noble family

so as to secure his position.

Madam,

then you should talk to Second Madam.

She's from a prominent family

and has many connections.

Most importantly,

she likes our Yu.

I'm sure she'll be willing to help.

That makes sense.

It's better to do it sooner than later.

Come on, we'll go right now.

Yu,

do you have a plan for your future?

My teacher taught me

that ambitious men should travel more,

see more and learn more.

I'm a slow learner.

I can't fight battles

and make military exploits

like father did.

But I want to create

a future of my own.

I want to study hard and strive

for scholarly honor

to win glory for our Xu family.

Good.

That's quite an aspiration.

Then

is it okay for you if I send you

to Jinxi Academy in Leshan

Sichuan province to study?

What's wrong?

You don't want to go?

I don't mean that.

Master Jiang of Jinxi Academy

was once a top scholar.

He left the court to engage himself in teaching.

No one can compare to him

in terms of characters and knowledge.

I've admired him for a long time.

Good.

I'm very glad

that you have such ambition.

When you arrive at the Academy,

you've got

to study hard

and must not be slack.

I won't let you down.

Please rise.

Master Zhao is still waiting for you.

Go ahead.

I'll take my leave.

My Lord, Second Madam is here.

Let her in.

My Lord, sorry to bother you.

Never mind.

You seldom come to Banyuepan.

What brought you here today?

I heard that you are going to send Yu

to Jinxi Academy.

There's something

I don't know if I should tell you.

Please go ahead.

Concubine Wen came to me yesterday

and asked me to be Yu's matchmaker.

Concubine Wen

saw that I've been paying

attention to Yu recently,

so she has some other thoughts.

No matter what, Yu's marriage

should be arranged by Shiyi.

Since she came to me,

I think she knows

that you wouldn't agree.

You are indeed insightful.

Concubine Wen

is after all a businessman's daughter.

My Lord, since you've made a decision,

you'd better have Yu

get ready for his trip soon,

in case Concubine Wen

gets in the way of his study.

Okay.

Your Ladyship, Concubine Wen is here.

Your Ladyship. I'm begging you.

Please don't sent Yu to Leshan.

Please.

Get up first.

Your Ladyship.

I assure you

that Yu is a good boy

and he'll be

as filial as Zhun to you

in the future.

He's been

seeing you as his own mother.

Your Ladyship, please.

Don't send him away.

It's so inappropriate.

Amber, Dongqing.

Help Concubine Wen to get up.

Sit down and let's talk.

Why do you not want Yu to go to Leshan?

Yu is too young.

Gan Luo became a Prime Minister when he was 12.

Grand Secretary Chen

passed the imperial exams when he was 11.

Yu is not young anymore.

But

Leshan is too far.

I don't want him to leave me.

Ambitious men should aim far.

They can't be kept in the room

like girls.

Otherwise,

how can he

protect you in the future?

But...

Does Yu know

that you came here?

He doesn't.

The teacher Jiang Bai in Jinxi Academy

was once a top scholar.

It's a rare opportunity for Yu

to have such a famous teacher.

You should've

talked to Yu first before you came here.

My Lord.

It's my decision

to send Yu to Jinxi Academy.

My Lord.

As parents,

we should put

our children's future first.

Are you really going

to take care of him for a lifetime?

The decision has been made.

You need not to worry.

And don't bother Yizhen anymore.

Yes.

It's must be Shiyi.

She saw that His Lordship

attached importance to my Yu,

so she wants to send him away.

She thinks she won.

I won't give up easily.

Concubine Wen acted like that because she's worried.

After all, her son will travel to such a far place.

Parents all hope their children

can stay with them.

But Yu

is also my son.

She claimed that she cares about him.

I'm just afraid that she'd

actually ruin his future

in the name of doing right by him.

The Longjing tea harvested before Qingming smells so good.

And it's the right temperature

to drink it

My Lord, would you like to taste it?

General Fu,

why did you ignore me?

I didn't.

What's wrong with your neck?

What are you doing?

I strained it when I trained.

Let me give you a massage.

You don't have to.

Are you mimicking me?

Does this medicine work?

His Lordship gave it to me.

Of course it works.

But I think

my method will work better.

What method?

What's the matter with you?

Did... Did it hurt that badly?

That badly?

Why don't you sit down and try it?

I'll pass.

No way.

Let... Let go of me.

You are such a bully.

My neck is not hurt anymore.

Her Ladyship was looking for you.

Where have you been?

I...

I went to collect the clothes.

Where are the clothes?

Gosh. The clothes.

Isn't it His Lordship's medicine?

Why does Dongqing have it?

Honor the Ancestors and Benefit the Offspring

Congrats, Young Madam.

You are recovered.

Thanks

to your attentive care,

I'm finally recovered.

Lady Shiyi,

you've done so much

to help Young Madam.

Why don't you tell her what you did?

Do you think

she'll still accept it

if she knows that I'm the one

who's helping her?

Don't worry.

Just do as I said.

Erniang will be saved.

Young Madam, you've been

very nice to me.

Even when you were seriously ill,

you still cared so much about me.

It's my duty to take good care of you.

Now that I've got back on my feet,

I'll take everything that belongs to me back.

That Lady Wang-Liu

has been waiting for the news of my death.

Go out now and tell them

that I've got better

under your care,

and that I'll be well soon.

Yes.

I'll let everybody know

that I'm the matron of Wang family.

Madam, what do you need me for?

I still need

to take care of Young Madam.

Honor the Ancestors and Benefit the Offspring

Jinlian,

you are old enough

to get married now.

We no longer need you

to take care of Young Madam.

What do you mean?

In the future,

you will belong to this man.

I'm the only one who

cares about you now.

Young Madam has just got a little better,

and you are going to kick me out.

You can't wait

for her to die, can you?

You are just a maid.

How dare you show disrespect

to your master?

Slap her.

Precious Breezes and Dew of the Moon

Who said you were a master?

Mr. Huang,

this maid

will belong to you in the future.

Take her away.

Thank you, Madam.

Young Lady.

Young Lady, go home with me.

I am...

I will take good care of you.

-I... -Stop it.

Let's go.

Precious Breezes and Dew of the Moon

Honor the Ancestors and Benefit the Offspring

Young... Young Madam.

You've recovered?

What?

Does my recovery

disappoint you?

No.

That's not what I meant.

Lady Wang-Liu,

you are only an outsider who temporarily

helps me manage

the household when I was ill.

Yet you are blinded by your greed.

Not only have you replaced

the servants,

you've also violated the rules

and were going to sell my dowry maid

to a stranger.

Just on that alone,

I can have you punished by law.

Guards.

Send Lady Wang-Liu and this guy

to Shuntian Prefecture Office.

Yes.

Don't. Don't. Don't.

No.

Don't. Please don't.

Are you crazy?

Don't. Don't.

Have... have you forgot

who recruited you

into the Wang family,

and who paid you monthly allowance?

Lady Wang-Liu,

just save it.

They've become my people long time ago.

You...

Young Madam.

I have nothing to do with it.

I... I was deceived by her.

Mr. Huang,

what nonsense are you talking about?

Fine.

Then I'll let you go

after you write a statement.

Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.

I'll... I'll write it.

I promise.

My son.

Hurry and help me.

She will send me

to the government.

You are now the heir of Duke Mao.

You don't need to be afraid of her.

The entire Wang family will be yours in the future.

Here,

except for Duke Mao and Madam Wang,

you are the most powerful one.

Come on.

Precious Breezes and Dew of the Moon

Greetings, Mother.

Mother,

please forgive my birth mother

for my sake.

Since you've been

adopted by me,

she's no longer your mother.

I can let her go,

but you have to give an order

that she

and her people

must leave here

in three days,

and they aren't allowed to enter

the Wang family without my permission.

My son,

just let her sue me.

So what

if they'll flog me?

I'm not afraid of it.

Otherwise,

I'll go to Shuntian Prefecture Office

and sue you for being unfilial.

You've become my adopted son,

yet you still cover for your birth mother's wrongdoings

and neglect the order of your adopted mother.

Young Madam, you don't even care

about the Wang family's name anymore?

Even if you don't care about the name

of the Wang family,

the Luo family is a prominent clan in Jiangnan

that has served the court for generations,

and the Xu family are also high-ranking officials.

If you don't care

about their reputation either,

just go ahead and sue me.

Send Lady Wang-Liu

to Shuntian Prefecture Office right now.

Jinlian, get the carriage ready.

We'll go, too.

Yes.

Don't. Please don't.

Honor the Ancestors and Benefit the Offspring

Young Madam.

Young Madam.

Young Madam. I made a mistake.

I know I'm wrong.

I dare not to do that again.

I'll leave here right away.

I'm begging you.

Please forgive us.

Jinlian,

watch her

and make sure she leaves.

Also, kick those

people she brought in

out of our family.

Search everybody

who leaves our house.

If any object of our family is found on them,

send them all to Shuntian Prefecture Office

for the crime of theft.

Yes, Young Madam.

Young Madam.

That Lady Wang-Liu left?

Yes.

She packed her stuff the next morning

and left with her people.

Lady Erniang

even had people

search them at the gate.

That does sound like something Erniang would do.

Everything you did for her

finally paid off.

But,

Duke Mao doesn't care about the household affairs.

Erniang has only her adopted son,

and she has to take care

of her ill mother-in-law.

I'm worried

that some street gangsters

will make trouble for them.

Amber,

ask Steward Bai to send a letter

to the Magistrate of Shuntian Prefecture Office.

Let them keep an eye on the Wang family

every now and then.

Amber,

give Steward Bai

20 tael of silver

and ask him to treat those bailiffs some wine.

Yes.

Don't worry.

No one dares to make trouble for them.

My Lord, let me thank you on Erniang's behalf.

Account Books

Young Madam,

these are the account books.

Please review.

Account Books

Finally they are back

in my hands again.

Looking back,

it was like a dream.

Congrats, Young Madam.

From now on,

you'll be the matron

of this mansion.

No one dares to look down upon you anymore.

Although I hate Shiyi,

she is right about something.

Complaining wouldn't help with anything.

Only by making myself strong

can I hold my head up high.

Xianling Pavilion

Shiyi.

Teacher.

Shiyi.

I have fantastic news.

Seeing how happy you are,

I guess

we've just received

a big order, right?

Even better than that.

You know what?

The Palace will hold a birthday celebration for His Majesty.

The inner palace is shorthanded,

so they'll use some embroidery from folk workshops.

Because of the excellent

embroidery skills of our Xianling Pavilion,

we are qualified for the pre-screening.

We need to make

an embroidery work as soon as possible

and deliver it to the Palace.

If it's chosen,

our Xianling Pavilion

will become world-famous.

By then,

our embroidery skills

will be widely circulated.

That's right.

Since it's His Majesty's birthday,

we need to think of

a propitious embroidery pattern.

Oh, right.

Bring me the pattern book.

Let's figure out

what to embroider.

Let me see.

Take a look.

What should we embroider?

How about this?

How about "Magu Celebrates The Queen Mother's Birthday"?

"Bodhisattva Lotus Sutra" is not bad either.

Both are good,

but if we want to make our work stand out,

we need to think of a unique idea.

Why don't we make a "One Hundred Longevity Picture"?

"One Hundred Longevity Picture"?

I'm thinking

we can use "One Hundred Longevity Picture" as the main pattern

and make it a centerpiece of the room.

But unlike the previous ones,

the 100 "Longevity" characters

in our picture

will be all written

in different styles

and different scripts,

including

seal, semi-cursive, regular, cursive

and such.

We can also mix them with the different

handwritings of the famous calligraphers of all ages,

representing a long and eternal life.

Good.

It's such

a good idea.

Calligraphy embroidery requires excellent skills.

It's a good opportunity for our girls

to show their talent.

But

we need to find someone

to talk about the writing.

Master Jian.

Mr. Ou.

-Mr. Ou. -Master Jian.

Madam Xu, you are also here.

That's even better.

The one who's in charge of the birthday

celebration is Ou Lixing?

Yes, it is my brother.

I think

you should be aware of that.

If he knows that you are involved,

I'm afraid he'll do something

to make trouble for you.

Thank you for your reminder, Mr. Ou.

I still have

a meeting with a business partner.

I can't stay for long.

I'll take my leave now.

Let me see you out.

Okay.

Mr. Ou, take care.

This time,

we'll embroider a "One Hundred Longevity Picture"

for His Majesty's birthday.

I heard that you are good at calligraphy,

so I'm wondering

if I can bother you

to write the main pattern for us.

It's my pleasure to help.

Master Jian,

we are friends.

Just feel free to ask.

In that case, thank you very much.

Master Jian, I'll leave now.

Alright.

Longevity

This calligraphy is very good.

Though it consists of different scripts,

it doesn't look awkward at all.

Instead, it's an

impeccable and

integrated work.

My Lord.

Shiyi,

I didn't expect that you are also

well-versed in calligraphy.

Calligraphy isn't my expertise.

This work isn't mine.

It's written by Ou Yanxing.

Why did you bring

his work home?

It's an embroidery pattern.

The Palace is collecting

embroidery from folk workshops right now.

The ones that can produce high-quality works

will be chosen to assist

the Palace with embroidery making

for His Majesty's birthday celebration.

Xianling Pavilion will use this to participate in the selection.

You must use his calligraphy?

Master Jian thought

that Mr. Ou is good at calligraphy,

so she asked him for help.

Otherwise, she doesn't have

enough time to find

another suitable person.

Longevity

This character

is dull

and was done in a rush.

It doesn't look like a masterpiece at all.

Wouldn't it be boring

just presenting a calligraphy

to His Majesty?

My Lord, but you just said...

My Lord, do you have

a better idea?

Xianling Pavilion's matter

is up to you.

Longevity

My Lord.

Longevity

Be careful.

Don't wet the paper.

My Lord, are you practicing calligraphy?

Longevity

So?

How's my writing?

My Lord, your writing

flows nicely

and looks vigorous.

Do you think Shiyi

would use mine

as the pattern?

My Lord,

you are running out of paper.

I'll go get some for you.

My Lord.

Longevity

Why did you get in here

without even

notifying me?

Since when am I not allowed

to enter your study anymore?

My Lord, what are you writing?

Nothing.

I was working.

What are you doing here?

The weather has been nice these days.

I want to learn archery.

General Fu told me

that you've mastered excellent

riding and shooting skills since you were little.

My Lord,

could you please teach me?

Why do you want to learn archery?

I want to experience

what Su Dongpo wrote,

"My bow is like a full moon, and aiming northwest,

I will shoot down the fierce Wolf from the sky."

My Lord,

would you please be kind and teach me?

Alright.

Let's go.

My Lord, you are awesome.

I guess, on the battlefield,

it's all thanks to your excellent shooting skills,

you defeated those barbarian pirates,

protected our people,

and made our Ming military proud.

Shiyi,

have you heard a sentence,

"When someone praises you for no reason..."

I meant what I said.

Without heroes like you

fighting the battles

and protecting our country,

no matter how talented

those scholars

and calligraphers are,

they won't be able to enjoy the peace

and show their talent.

Just like

without a thoughtful

and understanding wife like you

helping me with the household management,

I can't feel at ease to fight the enemies

and protect our country

on the battlefield.

Let me teach you.

Ready.

Loose.

Bull's eye.

Nothing can

beat you, My Lord.

That's true.

Again.

Actually, about the "One Hundred Longevity Picture,"

there's something else

I want to discuss with you.
