(Apart from you like stars in the sky)

(Jingnv Pavilion)

We're playing polo against Luming Pavilion?

We're all ladies.

I've never even ridden a horse before.

How are we going to play polo?

That's true.

It's the family affair between< the Commandery Prince of Julu,

and Xiaoman anyway.

If we take part hastily, it's not appropriate.

That's right.

We're all ladies.

Could Xiaoman be sold and someone's happy about it?

In this world, there are too many injustice towards us ladies.

Are we not going to help other ladies?

Help her if you want.

I can't do it.

I was angry with him.

Who knew it's as if he was born to play polo.

My bad.

I'm not as bright as the city people.

I'm such an idiot.

Xiaoman.

Oh, right.

About what happened before this, how did it go?

It's solved.

Don't worry about me.

Since Yanniang has decided to do so,

I should be responsible for your matters anyway.

You're my junior,

and also the most hardworking student in Jingnv Pavilion.

I'm like your teacher.

There's no way I'll ignore you.

Don't worry.

Zhao Xiaoqian can't do anything to me for now.

I'm not just a powerless scholar.

Xiaoman.

Teacher.

I've heard about what happened.

I've disgraced you.

How is that disgrace?

As a concubine, your fate isn't up to you.

I heard you're going to have a polo match

with the Commandery Prince at the old academy.

Actually,

I couldn't even ride a horse properly.

I made that decision in a rush.

Please forgive me.

How do I forgive you?

Since such misfortune is set, compromising

will be unfair for ourselves.

Confucius compared ladies to villains.

So, as ladies, all the more we should

always remind ourselves of the way of gentlemen.

We must keep our word.

For our own destiny, we must also achieve something for our future.

Hopefully we'll have a clear conscience towards heavens,

towards the world, and ourselves, understand?

Teacher, may I ask,

what's the meaning of have a clear conscience towards ourselves?

In the past, Lady Hao went to the battlefield in her husband's place,

and Princess Zhao of Pingyang guarded Niangzi Pass.

The two of them never relied on their father or brothers.

People always say

ladies depend on others throughout their lives, akin to climbers on trees,

and the tree here means the male members of her family.

But ladies in this world are no different from men.

The only difference is ladies neither compete, nor dare,

thinking submitting will mean an easy life in future.

However, easy life or not, it depends on others.

Food handed out in contempt is tasteless.

Heavens help those who help themselves.

Today, if you stand forth for yourself, even if you failed in future,

you won't regret it.

But if you admit defeat or give in, then your destiny

is no longer up to yourself.

Teacher, do you mean

I should fight for my own destiny?

A just cause attracts much support, an unjust one finds little.

If you're firm-minded, yours will be a just cause.

I understand now.

Teacher, you're broad-minded and bold.

I'll go and take a look at her first.

Xiaoman.

Ladies.

I know.

Perhaps all of you are thinking.

What did Xie Xiaoman do to be loathed by the Commandery Prince

and even offered to sell her to others?

In fact...

In fact, I also want to know why.

What exactly happened that

Xie Xiaoman has to end up in this state?

Today, I'm not afraid of being embarrassed anymore.

I'll tell you the entire story.

I thought about living in Yuyangli my entire life.

Plant mulberry trees during peak farming season,

and study during off-peak season.

Find a good husband, and lead a stable life

as long as we're safe and secure for the rest of our lives.

But the current era is so harsh towards ladies.

I won't hide it from everyone else.

That day, I indeed spent the night with the Commandery Prince.

It was an accident.

But my entire life was changed since that night.

The times we're in now,

ladies have to obey their father's orders at home,

and after they get married, they'll obey their husband's orders.

When their husband pass away, it's the sons.

I've always enjoyed studying

because it'll bring us knowledge.

But if I can't even determine my own fate,

what good will knowledge do?

If we keep living in the lessons of "Admonitions for Ladies",

we'll only suffer more and more.

For us ladies,

a concubine like me,

or a female servant,

or even courtesans, none of us is an object.

We shouldn't be trampled by others or thrown around.

What's the purpose of studying anyway?

I've been thinking about this question

ever since I joined the academy.

Now, I seem to have understood a little.

Perhaps it takes this kind of suffering and tribulations

for us to understand that like men, we're also humans.

I'm not afraid to fight with anyone.

I just want Xie Xiaoman

to live on with a sense of pride.

Today, the person who is asking for your help

isn't your classmate, Xie Xiaoman, but a lady

Xie Xiaoman.

I'll help you.

It's not easy for ladies anywhere.

We're not those kind of ordinary short-sighted ladies.

Let's show those guys from Luming Pavilion that

we can also play polo with them, fair and square.

Count me in!

Count me in!

Count me in!

We'll also help you.

Of course.

I'll help you, too.

Zhao Xiaoqian, what are you doing?

All of us are friends.

In future, when we meet,

it'll only make things difficult for all of us.

Jingnv Pavilion has promised Xiaoman.

But even if that's the case, it's also very unlikely they'll win.

You shouldn't be doing this.

I agree.

Hanchen.

Don't let yourself regret this.

I'm already regretting

marrying her.

Master.

This rascal.

What happened to you this time?

Did you come and have a drink with me?

Or you're here for archery?

That shot was full of determination.

But you've been visiting the army camp often lately.

What are you up to?

Are you planning to join Xiongjie Camp

or remain at Wujiang Prefecture?

Master, you've heard of it?

Of course.

Commandery Prince of Julu's selling his concubine.

Everyone in Wujiang Prefecture knows.

So, Master,

what do you think I should do?

When I first taught you horseback archery, I told you, for us men,

if you have high ambitions, you need to be broad-minded.

Attachment to the self brings about trouble.

Self-centeredness is a no-no for soldiers.

If you have high ambitions, you'll have to let go of certain things.

Master, do you mean

you want me to let go?

Men should be adaptable to circumstances.

If you want to leave Wujiang Prefecture itself,

then nothing at this place should hold you back.

Squire Wang, will you really redeem me?

Certainly.

Then I'm willing to marry you.

I hope you're not lying to me and are indeed planning to

make me your wife.

You're really agreeing to it?

Yanniang, don't worry.

I'll definitely treat you well.

I guarantee I won't get any concubines.

When we get your contract, I'll make you my wife openly.

Magistrate Yan,

about redeeming Courtesan Zhu,

I need your help.

(Capital)

(Kunning Palace)

(Crown Prince, Zhao Xiaoze)

Lady Shen again submitted a memorial to the palace today,

[Eunuch Wang Xian]
saying she wants to meet Your Highness.

How many times has she done that in this month alone?

It must be about

(Empress) Commandery Prince of Julu.

I don't understand what Shen Zunfu is thinking.

Zhao Xiaoqian got a concubine in Wujiang, embarrassing Shen Family.

Yet, he's still thinking of letting Lingniang marry him.

Maybe Lingniang is the one who couldn't forget him.

Did you forget?

Lingniang and the Commandery Prince grew up in the palace together.

His Majesty verbally granted their marriage before.

What Commandery Prince has done

is known all across the capital.

Lingniang would rather compromise her dignity than change her mind.

Perhaps...

Perhaps she's unwilling to enter the imperial palace as a concubine.

Lingniang is entering the palace?

His Majesty is here!

You may rise.

Yesterday, Xiaoze said he's almost memorized "Mencius"

by heart, and yet you still haven't tested him on it.

What were you writing?

(Emperor)

"To be able to celebrate with the people as one's happiness."

What does it mean?

It's talking about

King Wen of Zhou was building the astronomy tower.

He said to the people, "take your time to build the tower."

The people thought King Wen was concerned about them,

so they put even more effort into it.

However, when it's completed,

King Wen of Zhou was found relaxing in the astronomy tower.

It was then the people realized King Wen of Zhou's aim

was to enjoy himself in the tower.

So, this sentence implies that

King Wen... King Wen wants to

celebrate with the people.

It means the king should apply the policy of benevolence,

share weal and woe with the people, and celebrate together.

It's better to have a solid foundation when it comes to studying.

Don't be restricted in vision and shallow in understanding.

In the past, when Hanchen studied "Mencius",

it took him great painstaking effort.

Not only must you memorise it by heart,

you have to understand what it means.

Learn from your brother.

I understand.

I received many memorials again.

I need to leave.

The osmanthus tree at the backyard is going to bloom soon.

You and your son should go have a look when you have time.

No need to see me off.

Revise with the Crown Prince.

Take care, Your Majesty.

Take care, father.

Your Highness, regarding Lady Shen...

I won't meet her.

Entering the palace or not isn't up to her.

(Residence of the Shen Family, Capital)

Her Highness wants us to send Lingniang to the palace.

How can I let them ruin our Lingniang?

His Majesty is much older than Lingniang.

No, this won't do.

I married you not to let our daughter suffer.

I don't care.

Go to the palace and tell His Majesty

that Lingniang's already engaged.

What are you talking about?

Zhao Xiaoqian has got himself a concubine in Wujiang Prefecture.

It's an act of humiliation towards us as well as Lingniang.

You've been my wife for years.

Why don't you understand such a simple theory?

(Madam Shen)

Why won't Her Highness meet Lingniang?

Do you know why?

(Minister of Bureau of Military Affairs, Shen Zunfu)

Her Highness has decided to bring Lingniang to the palace,

but the current situation within the palace is very complicated.

Noble Consort Zhang and Her Highness are fighting over His Majesty's favour,

but she has no child.

Her Highness has Crown Prince,

yet Chancellor Xu's clinging to Crown Prince for his power.

The forces in the capital are intertwined and complicated.

Our Junfu is coming back next year.

Her Highness' idea is to let Shen Family settle down first.

You won't let Lingniang enter the palace.

Do you want to let her enter the East Palace?

(Lingniang, Shen Zhaowen) Do you mean

you want my Lingniang,

to set the path for Shen Family?

We're a family of high officials,

not some unknown people who climbed up to this status today.

We Can't afford to fall.

It's the last 15 minutes.

Don't give up.

Hang in there.

Although those from Luming Pavilion are natural horse riders,

we mustn't lose to them.

I'll remember the kindness you all show today.

In the future, if any of you are treated unfairly by society,

I'll be the first to stand up for you.

Why don't we recite "The Ballad of Mulan"

to boost our morale?

Sure!

Sigh.

Mulan sat at home weaving,

but the loom's resonant sound could not be heard

over the girl's sighs, but my father has no son,

and I have no big brother.

I want to go to buy a saddle and a horse

to serve in my father's place.

The night air moved the watchman's rattle,

the cold light glinted on her armour.

A hundred generals died in battle,

in ten years she returned as a great warrior.

Mulan said, "The male rabbit normally hops and runs

while the female sits and stares.

But both flee fast when danger threatens.

How can one tell whether they are male or female then?"

Sister, did something happen within the mansion?

Lady Xie,

well...

I still have something on.

I don't know anything.

I don't know anything.

(Lotus Garden)

Wick, come closer.

Try again once more.

What's wrong?

What's she doing?

This afternoon, she bought a few books on polo.

I guess she's practising now.

Your Highness, a married couple's fights don't last.

Why don't you just go in?

Maybe if she's happy,

the misunderstanding between you two will be solved.

What's there to solve?

She's already made her decision.

It's already been said.

If all the misunderstandings in this world can be solved so easily,

then I...

Wick, don't sleep.

Help me see if my action just now was correct or not.

Yes.

This is the page.

Why does it feel strange though?

Is that so?

What are you doing?

Leave us first.

What are you doing?

Let me tell you.

Many of the students at Jingnv Pavilion are skilled in polo.

We won't lose to you all from Luming Pavilion.

You've been practicing polo the entire evening?

That's right.

It's going well.

Do you want to leave me so badly?

Speak.

What are you doing?

You're the one who was planning to sell me.

You abandoned me first.

I sold you?

Don't you know why I did that?

Let go of me!

Let go!

You're my concubine yet you secretly helped Li Su.

What do you take me for?

I'm the Commandery Prince, you know.

Speak!

Let go!

Yes, that's right.

It's because I was worried something might happen to Congwen.

That's why I copied the intelligence.

It's because Congwen helped me before.

Be it Congwen or Teacher Liu,

they're the ones who told me that

ladies can also study and know the rules of propriety.

Ladies can also have their own path.

And you?

Zhao Xiaoqian, I'm thankful for what you did for me,

and I'm also trying to repay that.

However, am I mere nothing to you?

What unforgivable mistake did I make?

When you're unhappy,

you just sold me to others?

Zhao Xiaoqian, you were going to sell me.

So tell me. Why should I be in love with you?

Why should I be in love with

a person who decides my destiny as he pleases?

Let go!

Let go!

Please let me go!

Let go!

Do you hate me so much?

In future, when you've left my side,

take good care of yourself.

Don't try to step up for others anymore.

If you come across someone other than me,

who knows you might even get killed.

Did you know?

I also hate myself.

There're so many ladies in this world.

Why does it have to be you of all people?

You heartless Xie Xiaoman.

Your Highness.

Your Highness.

Your Highness.

Your Highness.

Su Family sent someone here to bring Lady Xie back.

Chase them away.

That'd be inappropriate.

After all, it's Lady Xie's family.

Do I need to teach you all these?

If they cause a ruckus again,

just seal Su Chang Ji.

I want to grow old.

Please have a look.

There's a 200-tael note inside as well as a deed.

Xiaoman will go with you after the polo match.

Let her leave and return the deed to her.

Tell her not to return to Wujiang Prefecture anymore.

[Bailu Academy]

Principal.

It's you, Xingzhou.

It's late. You haven't gone home yet?

I purposely came to look for you.

Principal, I guess the polo match will go on as usual tomorrow.

But if we don't want things to get more serious than it already is,

the polo match mustn't have a final result.

Therefore, I'd like to ask you

to think of a way to terminate the match tomorrow.

I know what to do to solve the issue.

Since you're solving the issue,

problems shouldn't arise from it further.

You must consider carefully.

I understand.

Sister! Sister!

Careful.

[Bailu Academy Polo Tournament]

Fellow students, this time's polo match as a test

is a first for male and female students to fight in opposing teams

ever since the establishment of Bailu Academy.

It'll set a precedent.

I hope everyone will strictly follow the rules

by competing in fairness and win with your techniques.

Don't overdo it.

The match begins!

Whoever scores a goal gets a point.

The team who gets three points first wins.

Let's begin.

Hanchen, catch this!

Minggu!

Careful! Don't fall!

Don't talk nonsense! It's none of your business!

Luming Pavilion gets a point!

It's all right. Don't give up.

Let's carry on.

Okay.

Careful.

Careful, sister!

Xiaoman!

The rein!

Are you all right?

Stay out of this.

I'm going to pass this examination.

I...

Great!

Great!

They scored again.

Minggu, I didn't do it on purpose.

Minggu!

Luming Pavilion, second point!

You're the one who wanted to sell me.

You abandoned me first.

Did you know?

I also hate myself.

There're so many ladies in this world.

Why does it have to be you of all people?

You heartless Xie Xiaoman.

Xiaoman, stop spacing out.

It's going to begin soon.

One more goal.

One more goal

and we'll separate.

Hanchen.

Hanchen.

What are you doing? It's starting soon.

[Mulan]

Should we continue with the match tomorrow?

Wait.

It seems like it's raining heavily.

Take a rest, all of you.

Keep the scores in mind.

We'll break the part of incense to where it's burned to now,

and continue the match tomorrow.

Come on.

Let's go.

Sister, our parents told me to bring you home.

Where's Wick?

She's been sent back early this morning.

I have a way. Let's go.

All right.

Let's go.

You cried just now?

Minggu!

Why is she so grumpy today?

I just scored a goal, that's all.

Seriously.

Hanchen, it's raining so heavily.

Let's go.
