[The Wolf]

[Episode 10]

Unexpectedly,

the cold-faced Lord Bo

is so popular.

The little princess was just being mischievous,

don't take it seriously.

Who said Princess Bao Na

was being mischievous?

It's more like

being unreasonable.

What did Princess Bao Na do

that shocked

both Your Second Highness

and Lord Bo?

If you want

to keep talking about the Princess,

then I'm going first.

Your Highness.

Is Princess Bao Na

really that annoying?

It's my first time

seeing His Highness so anxious.

My third brother

is once bitten,

now twice shy.

Princess.

Princess Bao Na will be here in 5 days.

I have a suggestion

for how Lord Bo can successfully borrow her troops,

but I need your help.

Your Highness, wait for me!

Your Highness, slow down!

My leg!

What are these boxes?

My Lord.

These are gifts

from the Princess.

There's also a letter for you.

Princess Bao Na

is such a sincere person.

Wen Yan.

Read the letter.

Yes sir.

Princess Bao Na

wrote this many pages?

It seems like her feelings for Lord Bo

are very deep.

You're very talkative today.

Princess, don't worry about him.

My Lord, I'm done reading.

You just need

to answer my questions.

Don't say anything if I don't ask.

Yes sir.

What are those four scrolls?

Princess Bao Na

wanted you to see

what she looks like now

after three years,

so she asked the painter

to paint her in the four seasons.

Princess Bao Na

is very pretty and graceful.

Did she also write the Chinese

on these paintings?

You're right, Princess.

Her Highness

wrote the Chinese herself.

She spent the past 3 years

learning

how to say and write Chinese for my master.

Her letter also said

that she hopes my master can hang the four paintings

in the living room,

study,

bedroom, and practice room,

so that you can see her everywhere.

Princess Bao Na really loves

our master.

What are those four boxes?

Those are filled with

your favorite meat jerky from Qitan.

The princess remembered.

They are deer jerky,

beef jerky, fish jerky,

lamb jerky, and wild boar jerky.

She specially sent them.

What is this?

Why is it half-eaten?

This is the jerky

eaten by my master back then.

The princess couldn't bear to throw it away,

and kept it for the past three years.

She also

didn't let anyone touch

the room you stayed in,

and kept it

like how it was when you left.

This little princess's way of love

is pretty crazy.

Princess Bao Na

really did some crazy things.

If she knew about

the marriage agreement between the princess and our master,

who knows what else

she would do?

It seems as if His Second Highness' suggestion is right.

In order to successfully borrow troops,

we should hide the agreement

from her

for the three days she's here.

I don't agree.

I want her to truly give up

after her visit this time.

You can't do that!

Your Highness, just as you've seen,

Princess Bao Na's love for you

hasn't decreased,

and has only increased.

That also means

she is a rash

and stubborn girl.

You can't provoke her.

My Lord.

I agree with the Princess's opinion.

The Emperor hasn't announced

the agreement to the people.

Hiding it won't be hard.

Besides, it's just three days.

It is a win-win solution

to keep the princess happy

when she comes

and when she leaves.

Do you want me

to let her do whatever she wants?

Do you all know

what she did to me back then

so that

I wouldn't leave?

She put laxatives

in my tea,

and for a while all I could do

was lay in bed.

In the end, I had to flee

with my second brother.

In that case,

if we don't hide it,

then there will be an even bigger mess.

Princess Bao Na

stubborn and spoiled

like the Second Princess said.

Your Highness.

I want to ask you

to work with us for the bigger picture,

so that we can borrow troops.

Work with you?

Is my marriage agreement

something to hide?

Wen Yan.

What else did the letter say?

Your Highness,

the princess has a few more requests.

First,

her room

must face the east.

Second,

all the decorations in her room

must be bright red.

That's her favorite color.

Is she treating herself

as the bride?

Third,

the princess likes fresh flowers,

so her room

must be filled with peonies.

She wants to like a peony,

loved by everyone

like how they love the flower.

What month is it now?

Where are we going to get peonies?

Fourth,

the rouge she wants

is the Flower Moon rouge.

If she doesn't have it,

she won't go out all day.

Fifth...

Stop.

Wen Yan, make a copy of the requests,

and send it to the Yun Mansion.

Ask the Second Prince

to send someone to decorate

based on her asks.

Hai Die, Mo Xiao.

Yes.

Put the presents away,

and go do as I asked.

Yes, Princess.

Princess, where are you going?

I'm going to convince Lord Bo.

Convince?

You're still trying to convince me?

I'm here to negotiate with you.

Negotiate?

If Your Highness agrees to hide the agreement,

and also

put up the paintings of Princess Bao Na,

then I will drink the medicine.

Are you threatening me?

In any case,

I won't stop

until I reach my goal.

I also won't leave.

You've been like this since little,

always wanting your way.

How do you know?

I've had

this bad habit since I was young,

and I can't change.

I know you feel wronged.

I also know

this is a tough ask.

But

there's still five days

until the princess is here.

If we can think of

a better way

in the next five days,

then we won't need to hide the marriage.

How about that?

Fine.

I promise.

Drink the medicine.

Wait!

You have to do something first.

Hang the paintings up.

Didn't you say there were still five days?

Do I need to hang it up now?

Then I won't drink the medicine.

This is

the handwritten script from Suo Jing

that I've looked for years.

How did you find it?

I spent all afternoon

and walked every single street

in the Imperial City.

You first used logic

to try and convince me,

and now you're making an emotional appeal

to win me over.

The Emperor should send you to borrow troops.

Thanks for the compliment.

But

unfortunately,

you are the only one

that can win Princess Bao Na's heart

in this world.

No one can replace you.

Hurry and drink medicine.

Before I promise you,

you need to agree to do something

for me.

Harder.

Use more strength, did you not eat?

The dough will never be ready

if you knead like that.

Ma Jing.

The more I think about it, the odder it seems.

I think Lord Bo

is playing a prank on me.

He wanted me to make

fried sugar pastries all of a sudden.

Do you think

he's distracting me on purpose

so that I can't take care of

the princess's matters?

If you think that,

then you're misunderstanding Lord Bo.

Princess.

Do you know

what holiday it is?

What?

It's the Double Seventh Festival!

Fried sugar pastries are made for the Festival,

and used when worshiping

the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl.

You tie the pastries with red string

or stuff it

inside the pastry,

and give it to the one you love.

Then you use red string

to tied your fingers

together.

That way,

you won't ever be separated

from the one you love.

Using the pastries to celebrate the Festival

is a tradition you should follow

as the Princess Consort to be.

Hurry and do it.

Auntie.

Am I doing this right?

Pinch it like this.

Teach me more.

How do I make the pastries?

Here here.

Sprinkle some flour.

Some flour.

Like this?

Like that.

What,

no more complaining?

You're suddenly this excited

to make it?

Squeeze it like this.

Just like this.

Princess, something's wrong!

Princess Bao Na is here.

She's in the front yard.

What?

Wasn't she coming in five days?

I already sent someone

to the palace to Lord Bo.

What's wrong with this princess?

Is she here as a surprise attack?

Hurry.

Hurry hurry!

Let's go welcome her.

Hurry.

Princess Bao Na is so pretty.

A small, quiet,

charismatic girl like her

isn't at all

like the unreasonable girl

in the letter.

Brother Bo!

The Bao Na

you've been thinking about,

dreaming about,

and worrying about is here!

Forget I said anything.

Brother Bo!

I'm here to give you a surprise!

Don't step on that!

This is the silk

that resembles the bridge of magpies between us.

Besides Lord Bo,

no one else can step on it.

Get off!

I, Ma Zhai Xing,

greet Your Highness.

Brother Bo definitely

cares about me.

Or else

he wouldn't ask the servants

to do our hand bow.

Keep throwing the petals!

Who told you to stop?

Keep going!

Princess, we don't have enough petals.

Then go get more!

That cook over there,

go get me all the flowers

in the mansion.

Princess.

There's no flower in the mansion

because Lord Bo doesn't like them.

You mean

Brother Bo doesn't like flowers?

It that true?

If you don't believe me,

you can look around the mansion.

Was my information inaccurate?

Oh, no.

He really

doesn't like flowers.

Didn't you guys hear? Pick them up now!

If Brother Bo gets mad,

I'll punish you all!

You, Tall Guy,

and you, Shortie,

help them!

Do it, what are you looking at?

Hurry, all of you!

That's strange.

Where is my Brother Bo?

Princess,

we didn't know you would arrive early.

Lord Bo is still in the palace,

and we sent someone to get him.

Why don't you

wait in the parlor instead?

Brother Bo and I

are just like the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl.

We have to go through

so many obstacles to see each other.

You and you,

keep laying down the silk!

We'll wait for Brother Bo inside.

Why can't I step on it?

Why can't I?

Princess Bao Na's stubbornness

is really extraordinary.

She's so hard to deal with.

She's dressed

like a lion dancer.

Oh no.

We forgot to hang up the paintings.

We've decorated the guest palace

according to Princess Bao Na's

requests.

The Court has notified the officials

to not speak of your marriage arrangement

to the princess.

Thank you, Second Brother.

When Princess Bao Na arrives,

I will go welcome her.

Brother, you and the Prime Minister

will wait at the mansion,

along with the Emper...

My Lord.

My Lord, something's wrong.

Go ahead.

Princess Bao Na arrived early.

She's at the mansion already.

Lord Bo.

Hurry and go back.

Third Brother.

I'll go with you.

Princess, please tell me

why you're upset.

What's your name?

Ma Zhai Xing.

Give me your hand.

This is how you write your name, right?

Exactly.

Then it's your fault!

I learned to speak and write

Chinese so well,

but where are the paintings of me?

Why aren't they displayed?

You guys are backstabbing,

and being two-faced,

doing whatever

you want.

Is that right?

Your Highness.

Those four paintings

were hung up in Lord Bo's suite already.

If you'd like to hang it in the parlor,

I'll send someone to get it now.

Why didn't you say so?

It turns out Brother Bo

really cares about me.

I thought

he didn't even look at it.

Bring it here.

I want to give this painting

to Brother Bo myself.

Even though the beautiful paintings

I sent earlier were one-of-a-kind,

they can't compare to this

priceless painting.

This painting

has the white horse and black ox

we worship.

Legend says that a heavenly being rode the white horse

to the east of the Futu River,

and a heavenly woman rode the black ox carriage

down along the Yangtze River

to Mu Ye Mountain.

The two rivers met,

and the two of them met and married.

They gave birth to eight sons,

and those eight sons

were your ancestors.

From then on,

you believed

that you were the descendants of the heavenly gods,

and sincerely

worshiped

the black ox and white horse.

Ma Zhai Xing.

Who are you,

really?

Based on your aura and knowledge,

you're definitely not just a servant

in the Bo Mansion.

Your Highness.

I am Bo Mansion's...

Princ...

...Guest!

My family fell on hard times,

and Lord Bo kindly took me in.

Brother Bo's friend

is my friend.

Ma Zhai Xing.

Let me ask you.

Has Brother Bo

liked another girl

these past few years?

Lord Bo

has never liked another woman.

That's great!

Wait, Princess.

I'm

quite dirty all over.

Indeed you are.

But I'm not worried

if you live together with him

looking like this.

Oh right.

What did you do

to get so dirty?

Your Highness,

I was making pastries.

Fried sugar pastries for the Festival?

Teach me!

I want to make it for Brother Bo!

Princess.

Look,

your silk isn't long enough to reach the kitchen.

Besides, the kitchen is very messy.

I'm worried that

your beautiful clothes will get dirty.

That is a problem.

Got it!

You!

Come here.

Come here.

I'm allowing you,

Ma Zhai Xing, to temporarily

become me,

and make pastries for me in the kitchen.

Then it's as if I made it.

It's the perfect solution.

Princess.

I finally understand

why my master

ran away at night back then.

This Princess Bao Na

is so unreasonable

and arrogant.

I know everyone feels bad,

but let's just bear it for a few days.

You're the one being wronged!

It's His Highness.

Why is our special princess

upset again?

The tea is too hot?

Too cold?

Or is the teapot the wrong color?

Are you sure

this is

your best tea?

If not, then I don't

want to drink it.

Then let her die of thirst!

After all these tries,

she finally decided

to drink the tea she brought.

You're still smiling?

You're her stand-in right now,

making pastries for her.

I found...

You found a way

to rule Bao Na?

I discovered

that I'm

actually pretty good

at cooking.

Look.

It looks good, right?

You didn't make that.

Bao Na did.

You made it.

You made it,

you did.

Princess Bao Na.

It's been a long time.

Brother Bo,

you're finally back!

I waited for you for so long.

Where's Zhai Xing?

I don't like you anymore.

We haven't seen each other for three years,

and you're asking about another woman.

Come!

Let's go home.

Princess, please wait.

Lord Bo is asking about Zhai Xing

because he wants to know

if she served you

well.

Third Brother, is that so?

Brother Bo is still the same,

quiet and not talkative.

I was sad for a long time

after you quietly left during the night

three years ago.

But then I realized

that you must've been scared

to say goodbye in person

because you would be too sad, right?

I can't remember what happened

three years ago.

That's okay!

You shouldn't keep

unhappy memories in mind.

I like to see

Brother Bo smile happily.

I prepared this

just for you.

It's a priceless treasure.

Open it and look,

you'll definitely love it!

Thank you, Your Highness.

Third Brother.

Open it and see.

Don't disappoint

Her Highness.

It's ok,

it's not urgent.

It's more of a surprise

if Lord Bo waits

until he's alone

to open it.

Then you'll know

my intentions.

Brother Bo.

We haven't seen each other for a long time.

Don't you have anything

to tell me?

I do.

Is You Zhen

doing well?

Your fourth brother is living really well.

If you're worried,

then go visit him with me.

Greetings, Second Prince,

Third Prince.

Princess Bao Na

has waited for a long time.

These are

the fried sugar pastries

the princess made herself.

Lord Bo, please try it.

I made these myself.

Brother Bo,

eat it while it's hot.

Is it good?

Really good.

These are the best pastries

I've ever had.

That's great!

Then it wasn't a waste

for me to come early all this way.

Why don't I...

I came

for something personal.

If you want to discuss other things,

then I will go to the palace

and see the Emperor in person

after the Festival.

Your personal matters?

Lord Bo.

The silk you're stepping on

is our bridge of magpies.

Bridge...of magpies?

You also

ate the pastries I made just now.

Do you still not get it?

I traveled

overnight to come

just so I could spend

the Double Seventh Festival with you.

Also,

I don't want to stay in the guest palace.

I want to stay at the Bo Mansion.

We can finally breathe now.

Princess, you're so smart.

You kept the engagement secret.

Or else

Princess Bao Nao

would've blown up

the entire Bo Mansion.

Hopefully, His Highness

can handle her.

I want to stay here!

This is Princess Zhai Xing's room.

Princess, your room is on the other side.

I don't care.

I only want

to stay in this room.

But...

Princess.

The guest room they've prepared

faces the east,

where you can bow to the sun.

Your room

is closer to Lord Bo's suite.

Lord Bo is my sun.

Who cares if I'm facing east or not?

Do you not want us

to have a happy ending?

Since it's what the Princess wants,

then I'm willing to switch rooms.

Ma Jing.

Pack up our things.

Go.

Princess, please wait here.

Someone went to the guest palace

to pick up what you asked for.

Your beloved horse and troops

are also resting at the guest palace.

As a guest of the mansion,

why do I somehow feel like

you are

the hostess of this place?

I...

Just kidding!

I know it's because

you don't want to stay here for free,

so you're helping with.

the servant work,

right?

I'm done packing.

Princess, please.

I'll be going now.

Sis, wait!

I have a gift for you.

I saw that you were always frowning,

and looked a bit tired.

This Flower Moon rouge

will help your complexion look better

and glow.

Thank you, Princess.

Why does she annoy me so much?

Can't she think about

who is causing you

to age so fast?

Age so fast?

I...

Do I really

look that bad?

Compared to Bao Na,

I do look tired.

That's right.

Say it again.

You're the prettiest.

That's right.

Who is it? I'll go look.

Your Highness.

I'm...

really busy all of a sudden.

Really busy.

I'm going to go first.

Are you alright?

Sorry to make you

stay in the guest room.

Don't be sorry.

Isn't it the same

regardless of where I stay?

Besides,

it's nice here too.

You're not upset that we can't

spend the Festival together?

It's just a holiday.

The most important thing

is to fulfill Princess Bao Na's wish,

and have a happy

Double Seventh Festival.

If she's in a good mood,

then she'll go see the Emperor,

and we'll clearly know

if the King of Qitan will lend his troops.

You really see the bigger picture.

These next few days,

I will do as you said

and take care

of Princess Bao Na well

so that she has a happy holiday.

You have to!

If the Princess is happy,

then you can successfully finish

the mission the Emperor gave you.

You go rest,

I'm leaving now.

Your Highness!

I'm not done yet.

Your Highness,

when you get back to your room,

remember to hang up the painting

Princess Bao Na gave you.

Just in case she checks suddenly.

Your Highness!

Don't forget!

I wonder if Princess Bao Na

likes to eat this.

Who cares if she likes to or not?

Where's Lord Bo?

Did you sleep well last night, Princess?

I did.

That's good.

I'm really happy that you

care about me this much.

Why are

you two together?

Our rooms are close.

Brother Bo is embarrassed.

He was waiting for me

at my door this morning.

Your Highness, Princess, please eat.

It hurts.

What happened?

I must have hurt my right hand

on my way rushing here

to see Brother Bo.

I really

can't eat now.

Brother Bo.

Feed me.

Why don't I do it instead?

It's fine.

I'll do it.

The Emperor heard

that you came early

to experience

the Double Seventh Festival,

so decided to wait

until the holiday is over

before calling you to the Palace.

I didn't expect

His Majesty to be so reasonable.

Then after breakfast,

Brother Bo,

will you take me to walk around the Imperial City?

I will go with you

wherever you want to go.

Sis Zhai Xing.

You come with us too.

She's busy,

and can't come with us.

Here.

That's right.

Lord Bo, spend time with the Princess.

I hope you have a good time.

Mo Xiao.

My Lord.

Prepare the carriage.

Yes sir.

Sis Zhai Xing.

We're going to leave now.

I really admire Lord Bo

for his "I'll take one

for the team"

spirit.

Princess.

Princess.

What's wrong?

I don't know why,

but I feel stuffy inside,

and a little dizzy.

Want a steamed bun?

No.

I'm going to rest in my room

and lay down for a bit.

But what a waste if all this food

is left over?

Brother Bo.

Walking through town

with you

is one of my dreams!

Perfume sachets for sale!

Sachets for sale!

Come look at our beautiful sachets!

The Double Seventh Festival is almost here.

Childe, buy a sachet

for the girl you like.

How do you like the sachets?

They're really pretty.

Why do you think

our master didn't bring

the Princess?

Does he really

want to be alone

with Princess Bao Na?

Are you dumb?

Our master is worried that the Princess can't bear it

with her leg wound,

so left her at home.

Miss,

would you like a sachet?

It smells so good!

Brother Bo, come closer.

Smell it.

Brother Bo.

Do you

not like these things?

I can take a look.

Mister,

take a look.

The Double Seventh Festival is almost here.

Why don't you buy a sachet?

You have good taste!

This style

is our most popular.

The embroidery is detailed

and the scent unique.

If you have a girl you like

you can give her this

to show your feelings

towards her.

If she's the daughter of a noble

and also a little boyish,

will she like it too?

What do you mean?

I've sold this for over 10 years,

and haven't yet heard of a girl

that doesn't like perfume sachets.

Pack it for me.

Ok!

Look over there.

There's someone creepy.

It's the Princess!

Why is she there?

Don't go over there

and ruin her cover.

The Princess must be worried

that His Highness will be defeated by Princess Bao Na,

and came over to see.

Should we tell him?

Maybe he already knows.

Thank you, mister.

Princess.

You look around.

Use this money if you want to buy something.

I'll come to you in a bit.

Why are you giving me money

and not the perfume sachet?

Princess.

Lord Bo must have

a surprise for you.

I like surprises.

Where did His Highness go?

Are you following me?

Why would I

follow you for no reason?

Caramels!

I came out...

Sweet caramels!

...to buy caramels!

Money back if it's not sweet!

Mister!

I want a bag of caramels.

Coming.

Two bags.

Ok.

Your caramels.

Thank you.

And yours.

Thank you both.

I didn't expect

a man like you

to like caramels.

This is for Bao Na.

It's so sour.

Tastes like vinegar.

Who told you to eat mine?!

I'm leaving.

Don't run!

Your wound hasn't healed yet,

where are you going?

I have something for you!
