The Love Lasts Two Minds

Episode 30

[Supreme Court]

Miss Yuan,

you’re a clever person.

You should know

why I took you here.

Now without Madam Yuan

and Princess Changle backing you up,

you should play smart,

and tell me the truth.

Mr. Qiao,

I already

said everything in the court.

What else do you want to hear?

Yuan Qingli,

don’t make me do it the hard way.

With iron-clad evidence and testimony,

there’s no room for you to argue.

If you keep being so stubborn,

you might get yourself hurt,

and bring shame to Palace of Yuan.

Don’t blame me for that then.

What evidence?

What testimony?

I’ve already told the truth.

You just wouldn’t believe it.

As for that handkerchief,

why are you so sure

it was I

that left it there?

The true murderer

could leave it there intentionally.

If you have common sense,

you should investigate

who else knew my appointment with Wang Zesheng.

That person is the most suspicious one.

Besides,

you didn’t interrogate me in the day,

but you’re doing this

when it’s dark

and Princess Changle and the other officials

have all left,

I can’t help thinking

if you have other intentions.

How dare you!

Stop making excuses!

I don’t need you to teach me how to handle a case.

You’re so stubborn!

Someone!

Squeeze her fingers!

Let me see how tough you are.

Have you seen Miss Yuan?

Do you know where she is?

Stop yelling!

We need to ask you something.

Follow us.

I...

I...

What do you want to know?

- Hurry! - Where are you taking me?

Cut it out!

Hurry!

Where are you taking me?

Kneel down!

You’re Miss Yuan’s

first maid?

You were also in the boat

when Princess Zesheng

was killed?

Yes.

But I already said everything

in the day.

My lord,

Miss Yuan is innocent.

Mr. Qiao will find out if she’s innocent.

You can go back

after you sign this.

My lord,

I can’t read.

I don’t know what it says.

This is your testimony.

You want to defend

Miss Yuan, right?

Then...

Does it mean

after I sign it,

Miss Yuan will be proved innocent,

and then we can go home?

Of course.

You’re lying.

It says “guilty” here.

I remember this word.

This word will be burned into the faces

of those who will be exiled.

This is an allegation.

Don’t try to frame Miss Yuan.

You insolent fool!

Don’t make me do it the hard way.

Miss Yuan is not guilty.

You’re trying to

upending justice.

You’ll be punished for what you’ve done.

Someone!

Punish her!

Continue.

Harder!

Didn’t you eat?

Just that?

I thought you’re more than this.

Embarrassment.

Pour water on her.

Tian,

you know medical skills.

Take her pulse.

See if she’s playing dead.

Yes.

Mr. Qiao,

her breaths are weak,

her pulse is slow.

This is due to limited blood flow.

Is she...

Is she having an acute illness?

Impossible.

That would be too much of a coincidence.

We just squeezed her fingers.

Maybe it’s not a coincidence.

I heard that

after the accident,

she never truly recovered.

She appears to be stronger than before,

she even practices swordsmanship.

But she’s been constantly seeing doctors,

and never stopped taking medicine.

If it’s true that she coughed up blood before,

that would mean she already

had some symptoms a few days ago.

Now after being punished,

and frightened,

it’s not surprising that

she’d have a flare-up.

Mr. Qiao,

even if

she really is the murderer,

it’d be hard to tell

if she died of an acute illness,

or from punishment

if she died during the interrogation.

After all,

she’s not a common suspect.

Madam Yuan and Lord Junior

are not pushovers.

They’ll definitely call for justice for her.

Even if the emperor knows you’re dutiful,

he’ll have to give them an answer.

According to the law,

causing a suspect to die during an interrogation

will be deemed as involuntary manslaughter.

Fine.

I don’t want to be blamed for that.

Someone!

Take her away!

Get a doctor to see her.

Yes.

Move!

[Take the pills if they punish you]

Take the pills if they punish you.

Mother.

Thanks to

the pills that mother prepared for me,

I was able to feign serious illness.

Otherwise,

I’m not sure

if I can endure the punishment.

Lu!

Lu!

Lu!

Lu!

Qiao Li is keeping a close watch,

and Lord Ye is backing him up,

so Madam Yuan and Lord Junior

couldn’t come visit Miss Yuan.

However,

Qiao Li asked me to find a doctor.

By taking you here,

I’m still following his order.

Lu!

Yuan.

Zuo Yanxi, did you bring medicine?

Did you bring medicine?

I did.

But she’s seriously hurt.

This bottle of medicine won’t help much.

Even if she survives,

she’ll become disabled.

My lady?

My lady?

My lady?

I’m here.

Lu,

I’m here.

My lady?

There is a lamp in this cell, right?

Why can’t I see you?

Right.

There is one.

But it was blown out by the wind.

I will

find someone to light it later.

It’s fine.

It’s fine.

As long as I can stay by your side.

I’m not afraid of darkness.

I...

I can protect you.

You’re the bravest girl.

Be good.

I will apply some medicine for you.

Stop crying, My lady.

It doesn’t hurt.

It doesn’t hurt at all.

Really.

When they

beat me earlier,

it really

hurt like hell.

I was wondering

if I’m already dead.

Maybe I’m dead already.

My lady?

I’m here.

Is it because I’m dead already

so that I can’t see you,

and I can’t feel pain?

So silly!

If you’re dead,

how come you’re with me now?

Right.

There’s no way you’ll die.

So I’m alive too.

But,

I’m really scared.

It really hurt!

Those people

wanted me to say you killed Wang Zesheng.

But you didn’t do it.

I can’t let them frame you.

Those villains...

Those villains want to frame you.

After I’m released...

After I’m released,

I’ll kill all those villains.

Lu.

My lady,

will they interrogate me again

when dawn comes?

I won’t say anything to them.

I won’t let them frame you.

But when they beat me,

it really hurt!

My hands hurt.

My feet hurt, too.

Lu, don’t be afraid.

My lady,

I wish I could lean on your shoulder

forever.

Lu, don’t be afraid.

Mother will come to pick us up soon.

I’ll find you the best doctor

to cure you.

After that,

we’ll go to Qinhe together,

alright?

Okay.

Right,

My lady,

Xiaohuai is also here.

It seems I see Xiaohuai.

Xiaohuai.

Xiaohuai.

Come here. Come here.

My lady says

she’ll take us to Qinhe.

We’ll accompany her

to Qinhe.

Is my lady mentally stunned?

It’s such a romantic thing

to wander the world,

how can you not

take me with you?

Right.

We’ll...

We’ll go to Qinhe together.

There are mountains and rivers,

tea houses,

and theaters,

as well as simple people.

There...

There might be a few thieves,

but it doesn’t matter.

What else could it mean

if a man asks a girl for a pouch?

It’s a token of love.

These are mandarin ducks.

I think they look like ducks.

Colorful ducks.

You’re one in a million,

right?

I’m sorry.

I can’t save her.

Yuan,

don’t hate Ci.

He’s been trying to find a way

to prove your innocence.

He asked me to prepare

the pills you took earlier today,

and let me give them to Beiyan and your mother.

Thank him for me.

Yuan hasn’t got her memory back.

So she didn’t have a motive for murder.

But the fisherman

can still testify against her.

I heard that this fisherman

often fished here.

He’s a local.

His several sons have served in the army.

He has a good reputation.

So his testimony

is very convincing.

Xi River is not close from here.

Since he used to fish here a lot,

why would he go to Xi River in those several days?

There must be something behind this.

Hello.

Hello.

Can I ask you something?

My respect to you.

It’s for that case again?

I’ve already said everything I know.

And I didn’t lie.

Yuan would never kill her.

You said you didn’t lie,

but everything you said

is pushing Yuan to a dead end.

But what I said is true.

Sir,

you live far away from Xi River.

I heard you didn’t fish there before.

Yes.

A few days ago,

someone carrying some fish

stopped by my place.

He said the fish in Xi River this year

is very fat and fresh.

After hearing that,

I went to go fishing in Xi River the next day.

He also told you

in which spot you can possibly

get the most fish, right?

Right.

I fished there for several days,

but it was not like what he said.

I also became a witness to that crime,

and was taken to

the court at this age.

I was really unlucky.

It seems that

the fisherman was just

telling what he saw.

Is it really a coincidence

like he said?

It seems convincing.

Because the fisherman told the truth.

But someone actually

made him see what he saw.

You mean someone deliberately

made this fisherman

become a witness passively?

From that fisherman’s fishing spot,

he could see Yuan come and leave.

He could even see

the bow of the boat.

But if there is a fight

in the cabin,

or if someone appears

at the stern secretly,

he won’t be able to see it at all.

This is all well planned

to make Yuan unable to explain herself.

Someone wanted to frame her,

and he made a lot of preparations.

Palace of Yuan was preparing for the wedding,

they didn’t expect

someone would set Yuan up

at a time like this.

So vicious!

It’s easy to guess who did it.

After all, Yuan didn’t offend many people.

And there aren’t many people

who can stir so much chaos.

Yuan and Mu Beiyan once saw

Qiao Li go to meet Lord Ye.

It seems she offended both of them.

The worst part is

Yuan is now being kept in the prison

that Qiao Li is in charge of.

Princess,

can I borrow the erring

you picked up last time

in the cabin of the boat?

Earring?

Right.

Also,

can you also give me

that key that you found

when you were investigating

Yin and Sese’s case?

Ci,

how come you're here?

I thought you must be busy

with Yuan’s case recently,

so I didn’t go to see you.

I’ve been indeed very tired recently.

I don’t feel very well.

My chest feels stuffy.

So I came to ask you to take my pulse.

You’ve been taking medicine.

So your pulse is normal.

Maybe you’re just too tired.

Don’t worry about it.

I’ve studied the medical book my master left

and have worked out a new prescription.

It’s just two kinds of herbs are very rare.

I’ve asked people to look for them.

I’ll get news from them in these two days.

Thank you.

I heard you went to the prison

to visit Yuan.

How is she doing?

She took the pills

I let Beiyan gave her in time,

and feigned illness.

She was not punished severely.

But Lu...

Lu was tortured,

and was beaten to death alive.

Lu is dead?

These are?

This bottle,

you gave it to Aunt Zhixia, right?

Let me see.

Yes.

The medicine

can help Yuan get her memory back.

How did you get it?

Yuan threw it in the river.

She didn’t take it.

Then...

This is?

I found it at the crime scene.

Maybe the murderer dropped it during the fight.

Tan.

Jiang Tan!

Jiang Tan!

Brother.

You killed Wang Zesheng,

right?

I just wanted to

get rid of Lord Ye

and live a peaceful life.

Have you ever thought about

how many people were killed by you?

How many people couldn’t live peacefully

or even keep their lives?

I don’t know what you’re talking about.

Don’t make excuses.

I know it was you.

If Wang Zesheng married Lord Bo,

Lord Ye will be at a disadvantage.

He didn’t want to admit defeat,

so he wanted to kill Wang Zesheng.

Yuan and Beiyan offended Lord Ye before.

By killing Wang Zesheng,

he can make Yuan the scapegoat,

and also cause trouble to

Palace of He and Palace of Yuan.

So he can shoot

three birds with one stone.

And you’re the one

who killed Wang Zesheng for him.

Feng Mianwan went too far!

Princess,

don’t be sad.

Let’s sit over there for a while.

I guessed right, right?

I wish I were wrong.

If I deny it,

will you believe me?

I’d been trying to believe you,

until I saw the earring that Jing Ci

brought back from the crime scene.

I saw you wearing it before.

I didn’t have a choice.

Lord Ye promised me

after I finish this task,

he’ll set me free.

So I’ll no longer

need to work for him again.

Just for your freedom,

you’re willing to do his evil bidding,

and kill innocent people?

Although Lord Ye detained my father,

he helped us once

when we most needed help.

So I wanted to pay him back

by doing this for him one last time.

As for what I owe you,

I’ll spend my whole life paying you back.

You didn’t owe me anything.

But you owe a lot

to those you killed

and put in trouble by you.

I didn’t want to kill them.

I just wanted to seize

the happiness that belongs to us.

Seize the happiness that belongs to us?

You killed Jing Ci’s cousin,

and sent Yuan to prison.

Yuan is Beiyan’s fiancée,

and also the girl Jing Ci loves.

Yuan’s maid who was with her in her hardest days

was tortured

and died in Yuan’s arms.

Now you’re saying

you want to seize our happiness?

Can you really build your happiness

on the pain and blood of those

you’re familiar with?

I’m sorry.

I’m sorry.

I didn’t think that much.

I thought I was just going to kill

that Wang Zesheng that everyone hated.

As for Yuan,

you didn’t like her, right?

I didn’t like her,

that’s because I don’t like women

that disrespect other people’s lives.

But maybe I was wrong.

That woman I accidentally

fell in love with and was willing to

take care of with my life

is actually the one

that murdered people in cold blood.

I didn’t murder people in cold blood.

I just want to live

a worry-free life with you.

Enough!

Don’t say this to me anymore.

I’ve rescued

your father,

and sent him to the courtyard you live.

If you still have a conscience,

you should leave Yong State with him.

Lord Ye will be taken down soon.

You won’t end up well

if you follow him.

Just go.

Okay.

Please

leave with me,

alright?

Impossible.

I’ll never be with you.

I’m afraid I’ll dream of

those innocent people

that were killed by you

in the future.

Don’t look back.

She’s just a blade of Lord Ye’s.

Even if we break this blade now,

Lord Ye will

find another blade that’s as sharp,

and wield it towards us.

I want to save Yuan,

and do Zesheng justice.

But it won’t help the situation at all

if we break this blade now.

You let me see the earring on purpose?

Both you and I

know the truth.

But the most difficult part is

how to bring

the truth to light

and let others

know what happened.

Ci,

I’m sorry.

I’m selfish.

I didn’t want to see Jiang Tan

keep making mistakes.

I want to help her.

Can you stop her if she

wants to jump into the abyss?

Didn’t you help her again?

Will she listen to you?

It’s all my fault.

Jiang Tan just wants to be with me.

I’m incapable.

I can’t stop her

from repeating her mistakes

again and again.

I’ve been busy lately.

My illness is getting worse.

I have to ask you to take care of me.

From now on,

you’re not allowed to leave me.

Ci,

what do you mean?

History tells us that

it’s easier to pull down

than to build.

It’s more the case

if it’s from within.

Zesheng insisted on

going to the Yong State.

She thought she could

find her lifelong happiness there.

But she lost her life

in just a few months.

I must do her justice.

Zesheng,

I was thoughtless,

and caused you to lose your life.

I’m responsible for it.

Father,

I’m willing to

marry into the Yong State.

Ci has left me,

what will I do

if you also leave me?

Zesheng,

I won’t let you die for nothing.

To restrain it,

let it expand it first.

To weaken it,

let it become strong first.

To overthrow it,

let it prosper first.

To replace it,

let it have what it wants first.

[Palace of Duke Duan]

Princess,

I know

you won’t rest in peace.

Don’t worry.

[Tablet of Princess Wang Zesheng of Zhaozhou]

I’ll not let you die for nothing.

I’ll let her

pay the price.

The case hasn’t been solved,

it’s too early

to say that.

You still won’t believe she’s the murderer?

Yuan is not the murderer.

Don’t get used by others,

and hurt the ones you love.

Princess Zesheng’s memorial tablet

is right in front of you.

How can you say something like that?

Think about how Lord Zhao treated you.

How can you talk like that?

Where’s your conscience?

Aunt,

mind your words.

Those alive should do the dead justice,

but not using conscience as an excuse

to vent their anger.

Alright.

You can keep ignoring justice,

let’s wait and see

who is the speculative murderer

that killed the princess.

Very soon,

the Supreme Court will give you an answer.

Mr. Jing, the emperor is here.

My respect to you, your majesty.

Save the manners.

I haven’t been here for a long time.

It indeed looks

less adorned.

How is

your life here?

Your majesty,

I prefer a quiet life.

It’s good to live here.

In my opinion,

it’s true that Princess Zesheng’s coffin

shouldn’t be kept here.

Now she’s dead.

You shouldn’t be too sad.

You’ve been ill all the time.

You must take care of yourself.

Don’t worry.

Zuo Yanxi is very dutiful.

He’s taking care of my food and medicine.

I’ve gotten

much better these days.

If he still can’t cure you,

I’ll punish him severely.

Ci,

remember,

you’re not doing this for yourself,

your friends and relatives also care about you.

Even it’s for your loved ones,

you should

take better care

of yourself.

Yes.

The murderer is still on the loose!

The princess won’t rest in peace!

Your majesty,

please hold the justice for the princess!

Who is yelling?
