The Love Lasts Two Minds

Episode 16

[Qinhe County Government]

That day,

Zuo Yanxi showed up in the Eatery

with a woman wearing a veil.

I chased that woman

all the way to Shuxin Clinic.

She then disappeared.

That Ms. Jiang involved in Xiaoyu

and Fu Manqing’s case

also disappeared.

Plus, I was attacked by a woman that night

at Hanqiu Slope.

I’m wondering

if it’s the same woman

that’s behind this.

You suspect that this woman

killed Lord He?

Right.

Since she knows Zuo Yanxi,

it’s possible that she can enter Shuxin Clinic

and steal the poisonous grass.

Zuo Yanxi is possibly trying to cover up for her,

so he didn’t say anything.

I’m quite sure it’s her.

It’s not her.

And she’s not the one

who attacked you

at Hanqiu Slope.

How can you be so sure of it?

You also said that

the Mo Knife is heavy.

If the murderer were a woman,

she wouldn’t be strong enough to wield it.

Why would she

use such a heavy knife

instead of a lighter one that’s handy?

That makes sense.

But,

I still think that woman wearing a veil

is very suspicious.

How about I go ask Zuo Yanxi?

The medicine!

Can you be a little more careful?

[Can you be a little more careful?]

[This sounds so familiar.]

[Seems he said this to me before.]

[This scene is so familiar.]

What?

You burned your hand,

but you’re having a headache?

Yes, I am.

You’re not having a fever.

Maybe it’s because you were too tired recently.

Maybe.

It hurts a lot.

Zuo Yanxi is still in the cell.

I’ll bring him here.

That’s okay.

I’m just a little tired.

You can’t just

let the suspect leave the cell.

Others may find this inappropriate.

What’s more important?

Your health or the rumors?

You!

I mean

it’ll affect your reputation if you’re doing this

for personal reasons.

Maybe

you can give me a massage.

Alright.

Do you feel better now?

It’s comfortable.

So comfortable.

What’s with the smell?

The pot must’ve been boiled dry!

Let it be.

But Mr. Li’s been very anxious recently.

He’ll feel at ease when the case is cracked.

The medicine won’t help.

Just don’t waste your time and energy.

Zhiwan,

you’re so sharp-tongued.

But I like it.

Seems your head doesn’t ache anymore.

The representative will arrive tomorrow.

You should go back and rest.

Yunduo.

Mr. Zhao,

the princess wants to take a break.

How can I be of service to you?

What?

I can’t see you for other reasons?

You’ve been

hurrying on with the journey

and seldom came check on me.

The case of Lord He is of great importance.

I want to arrive earlier

to investigate the case.

Sorry for my inconsiderateness.

Now since you’ve realized this,

you should go have a walk with me in the forest.

It’s inappropriate, Princess.

I’m afraid people

may spread rumors about this.

Princess,

this is a painting by my friend.

Please give it back to me.

This place

looks a bit familiar.

Especially the view of this girl’s back.

Princess,

isn’t she…

She...

She’s Yuan Qingli.

Princess,

the case is very important.

Let’s hurry up.

Zhao Yan,

how can you do this to me?

Zhao Yan,

you are a fool!

And Yuan Qingli is a trouble-maker.

You’re really a perfect match.

Princess,

you just said,

Mr. Zhao and Miss Yuan is a perfect match?

Nonsense!

Mr. Zhao and I are a perfect match.

Mr. Li,

they’re here.

They’ve arrived.

Who is the representative?

It was Mr. Zhao. He was here a few days ago.

Zhao Yan?

Right.

Princess Changle also

came with Mr. Zhao.

A princess?

What’s going on?

Mr. Zhao

is an upright person

and has a good reputation.

He’s a good guy.

How absurd!

How can he take a princess with him?

And she’s the emperor’s most beloved princess.

My place is too shabby for her.

They’re here.

[Qinhe County Government]

Princess,

we’ve arrived.

Greetings to you, Princess.

It’s our honor

to have you here.

Please get up.

Thank you.

It’s you?

You know me?

It can’t be.

I came from a small place,

and I’ve never been to the capital before.

You can’t have possibly seen me before.

Princess,

she’s Yuan Qinhe.

She has been an officer here for a long time.

Zhao Yan,

do you think I’m stupid?

Now wonder you were

so eager to come here.

Princess,

I came for the case on the emperor’s order.

Please go inside and get some rest.

I need to go through the files now.

Constable Yuan.

Princess.

Yuan Qingli,

you’re really something.

Then let’s have some fun here.

What’s wrong with the princess?

Seems she hates my guts.

Yuan.

Mr. Li.

Yuan,

seems Princess Changle

is having some issues with you.

Have you offended her before?

If that’s the case,

hurry and apologize to her.

Don’t get our county government into trouble.

Mr. Li,

I’ve been dealing with thieves here every day.

How could I possibly have the chance

to offend a princess from the capital?

Then what’s...

Master.

Master.

Master.

Master.

I heard that Princess Changle had come here.

Princess Changle?

You know her?

My lady,

don’t you remember

anything in the past?

Princess Changle had been

constantly badgering Mr. Zhao.

Once,

in order to run away from Princess Changle,

Mr. Zhao asked for a leave and went to meet you.

Princess Changle even went to your house,

but Mrs. Yuan drove her away.

Now that explains.

I was just wondering why she’d want to

leave the comfort of home and come here.

So she actually came to make trouble.

Right.

She thought Mr. Zhao was coming here to date you,

that’s why.

Hey!

What are you talking about?

You should at least tell me.

How could...

Mr. Li.

Mr. Li.

Is the princess’s room ready?

The county government is very small.

And the roofs leak in the rain.

The rooms here are too shabby for you.

Mr. Zhao can actually use my room.

But we don’t even

have a maid

around here.

I’m afraid it might be inconvenient.

It doesn’t matter.

The princess is aware of this.

She said that

she can live in Constable Yuan’s room.

No problem.

Thank you a lot.

I’ll

get everything prepared.

This is too bad.

She must’ve found out your identity.

Now she won’t let it go at that.

Let’s just

roll with punches.

Don’t worry.

Greetings to you, Princess.

May I ask

how I can be

of help to you?

Yuan Qingli,

now it’s just us.

You don’t have to pretend.

I wonder if it’s because

there’s a special man here

that has captured your heart?

But I haven’t seen

any good-looking guys here.

You’ve developed

such weird taste in men.

As for Zhao Yan,

he’s been busy with work in the capital,

so he couldn’t come here very often.

Princess,

I ran across some bandits a few months ago,

and my head was injured.

Now I can’t remember anything in the past.

Maybe,

just like you said,

my taste in men has changed.

I won’t doubt that.

I couldn’t even imagine

that you can actually

live comfortably in such a shabby place.

I actually start to feel itchy now.

Right.

I’m indeed

leading a very comfortable life here.

It means I’m quite different

from what I used to be.

My taste in men has also changed.

Please do not

see me as Yuan Qingli anymore.

And I hope you can

bury the hatchet with me.

I know whether you’ve

lost your memory or not.

Just don’t play me for a fool again.

I’ll use this room.

You can move somewhere else.

It’d be my utmost honor

if you like my room.

I want to take a bath.

Please prepare some hot water.

Am I asking too much?

I came in a hurry,

so I just took one maid.

Also, you just said that

I shouldn’t see you as Yuan Qingli.

In this case,

is it inappropriate for me to ask an officer

to do some work for me?

Right,

Constable Yuan?

I’ll do

whatever you wish.

Then move your things away first.

Keep a close watch on her.

Don’t let her play any tricks.

Yes.

My lady, are you alright?

Did she make things difficult for you?

Give them to me.

She just wanted me to boil some water for her.

Boil water?

How cheeky!

How could she let you do this?

I have to obey her orders anyway.

No.

Let me do it for you.

Carry them to the guest room.

Get everything ready,

so that we can sleep well tonight.

I’ll have to work on the case tomorrow.

So heavy!

They’re so heavy!

There are not enough beds here, either.

But it’s much better

than in the small and cold guest room.

Considering his relationship with her ladyship,

I don’t think Sheriff Jing will drive us away.

You scare me a lot.

Sheriff Jing,

I didn’t know you’re here.

What’re you doing?

Sheriff Jing,

please don’t blame me.

Princess Changle

occupied our room

and ordered Miss Yuan to boil water for her.

Miss Yuan wanted to

come personally and ask you

if we can put up for the night here.

But she was too busy to go away.

So

she let me move the bedding here first.

She’ll come to you after she finishes her work.

She ordered Yuan to work for her?

Yes.

She even sent her maid to supervise her.

But I can’t do anything about it.

I see.

You may leave.

Yes.

Do you need me to help you bathe?

I’ve been waiting for too long.

I suddenly feel hungry.

I’ll take the bath later.

You want to have a meal?

I have to make this clear first.

I can indeed cook,

but I can’t guarantee that

you’ll like the food I cook.

So far,

Baddy is the only one

that hasn’t complained about my food.

Baddy?

An eagle I raise.

Are you comparing me to an animal?

Why do you say this?

I never dared to compare it to people.

But why do you think that way?

Yunduo,

let her serve my food.

By the way, let her wash her hands and face.

Yes.

Princess, please.

It’s time to take the bath.

Please help me check

if the water is still warm.

It must be cold now.

But it doesn’t matter.

I’ll go

prepare hot water again.

Then do it.

[Kitchen]

It’s dirty here.

What are you doing here?

It’s a little cold.

So I came to warm myself.

You can just ask Aunt Zhixia

to prepare a stove for you.

But,

it might be weird

to use a stove around this time of the year.

I actually feel the same way.

So I came to sit by the fire.

Princess Changle is giving you a hard time?

It’s nothing.

Actually I feel bad for her.

She’s not really fat,

but she eats very little,

and she barely eats any meat.

She’s like a nun.

For what?

There are some rules in the palace.

Eat less,

so that others won’t be able to

figure out your food preferences.

Well, I actually

eat a lot of meat every day.

I also

have chicken soup during meals.

This makes me think

the seemingly luxurious life of a princess

is actually very miserable.

Don’t you hate her?

Not at all.

She did that much

to win a man’s heart but still failed.

And I came between them back then.

It’s fine if she hates me.

What’s more,

she racked her brains to make me unhappy,

but I’m still very happy.

I guess this will make her even more unhappy.

You’re really open-minded.

Is there something on my face?

No.

Zhiwan,

have you thought about

my proposal?

Our parents are not here.

And you don’t need to pay the bride price now.

However,

shouldn’t we

exchange the betrothal letters first?

I don’t understand.

Becoming shy again?

Princess,

should I call Zhao Yan here

to serve you?

Do you want to ruin my reputation?

Do you think I’m like you?

Princess,

now I’m dressed as a man,

and I’m helping you bathe,

aren’t you afraid that

this will ruin your reputation too?

What am I afraid of?

If you go around talking about it,

I’ll strip off your clothes in public

and show them you’re a woman.

Then,

let’s see whose reputation will be ruined.

Good idea.

However,

I used to be unruly.

My reputation was never good.

So how bad can it be?

But from now on,

the emperor and Zhao Yan will know

how you bully me,

who has lost her memory.

I’m wondering

if your deeds today

will bring shame to

the dignity of your royal family?

Now you’re using jasmine flowers,

you should know that

when being heated,

they will give off an aroma

that can stimulate one’s sexual desire.

Besides,

this aromatherapy contains a large amount of

sandalwood.

Sandalwood can not only moisturize the skin,

but also lift one’s mood.

You came to Qinhe with Zhao Yan

while using this kind of aromatherapy.

I don’t know how I should interpret this.

Who prepared these?

All of them

are fragrance that you like.

We just brought some,

but...

but we didn’t know what they’re made from.

I don’t want to bathe anymore.

Help me get dressed.

Put it there.

You may leave now.

Yes.

My lady.

It’s a long day.

I don’t know

if we can find anything tomorrow.

My lady,

so you just

buried the hatchet

with Princess Changle like this?

You really have changed a lot.

Enough.

Don’t mention it again.

I have to!

You’re being treated unfairly.

Tell you what,

Princess Changle

has traveled a long distance to come here.

Her skin is delicate,

and I’m not sure what she touched,

when she was taking a bath just now,

I noticed that

she had already had a rash.

She wanted to take a bath,

so that she could make me boil water for her.

But she didn’t know

hot water will make her skin itchier.

She was just inviting trouble.

But I was clever

and gave some bad comments about her aromatherapy,

so that she could stop bathing.

Otherwise,

she’d accuse me of

using dirty water tomorrow.

So just forget it.

Seeing how persistent she is

in pursuing the man she loves,

I actually don’t mind what she did.

You see?

She’s so much like me.

Like you?

Don’t you see how persistent I am

in pursuing Sheriff Jing?

Right.

Lu,

where are you going?

We should go this direction.

My lady,

I checked the guest rooms earlier.

They’re all occupied.

There’s no space for us at all.

So I carried your bedding

to Sheriff Jing’s

room.

I’m afraid we’ll have to

put up for the night

in his room.

Is it appropriate?

Of course.

Since there’s no space

in the guest room,

let’s go sleep in the woodshed.

My lady,

you just said

you were chasing Sheriff Jing crazily.

But now you’re holding back.

What’s more,

you two have already...

What did you say?

What did you do with the master?

It’s nothing.

It’s just

they spent one night together.

Shut up!

I don’t believe it.

Don’t spread rumors

and stain the the his reputation.

My lady was drugged.

And he took advantage of her, alright?

We didn’t even bring it up,

but now you’re blaming us?

You don’t believe it?

Alright.

We’ll sleep in Sheriff Jing’s room tonight.

See if he will refuse.

How dare you!

Lu.

Let’s go.

Aunt,

let them stay.

Master.

This is...

It’s just a few nights.

It doesn’t matter.

Alright then.

I’ll keep a close watch on them,

so that they won’t disturb your sleep.

Vixen,

don’t cross the line!

Stop looking.

Yuan,

the princess ordered you to fetch some water.

You...

Hurry up already.

The princess said that

the water in the county government is not clean,

and caused her to get rashes.

I heard there is a spring in the back mountain.

Fetch some clean water

for the princess to wash her face.

Okay.

I happen to have practiced martial arts.

Otherwise,

going up this steep road to fetch water

would be suicidal.

Is your foot hurt?

Let’s go sit there.

Did you sprain your ankle?

Where does it hurt?

Here.

Where?

Here.

I even feel it’s painful for

I sprain the ankle.

I can’t imagine

how painful it was when your hamstring

was broken?

My heart aches

for it.

Who’s the one that hurt you?

Where is he?

Why ask about this?

That person hurt you so badly,

I won’t let him get away with this.

If I know who he is

and where he is,

I’ll take revenge against him.

Take revenge?

I remember you said

it was merely because

I was hoodwinked

and made friends with the wrong people.

Nonsense!

When did I ever say that?

Hurting you is hurting me.

A debt to you is a debt to me.

I’ll let him pay for this.

Don’t worry.

This will never happen again.

I want to stay by your side forever,

and be your guardian for this lifetime.

This lifetime?

Right.

I also want to protect someone

for this lifetime.

Jing Zhiwan,

I won’t marry Mu Beiyan.

I’ll think of a way

to break off the engagement.
