♫ Pushing open the windows and looking out, the scenery is breathtaking ♫

♫ The beauty of the spring flower is unforgettable ♫

♫ Lush and ruthless, but always fascinating ♫

♫ Getting drunk alone, I temporarily forget your scent ♫

♫ Beside the broken bridge, loneliness hid under the rocks ♫

♫ The liveliness belongs to the passerbys ♫

♫ Drowning my sorrows with wine, the prosperity can't hide the sorrow ♫

♫ I'm left with the deep feelings alone, missing you with nothing to rely on ♫

♫ I don't wish to admit that this was just a dream ♫

[Episode 3]

We don't have a sodium bicarbonate tablet here, I'll have to replace it with baking soda.

Why are there bubbles? Is it poisonous?

It's a chemical effect. Looks like you didn't learn your chemistry lessons well.

Who would have thought that I would act as a top student here.

Try it.

Oh, okay, I'll drink it first.

At first I was puzzled. You're the daughter of an official,

how can you be so happy to be married into Black Wind Fortress?

Turns out you want to commit suicide!

What are you thinking every day?

If you don't want to commit suicide then what do you want to do?

Let me ask you. Are Eldest Brother and Second Brother single dogs? ( T/N: Slang for single male )

You're not allowed to say that our masters are dogs!

"Dog" means he's without a wife.

Oh. Yes, they don't have wives.

Since there is no First Madame or Second Madame,

as the Third Madame, aren't I

the most formidable woman in this Black Wind Fortress?

- You can say that. - Yes.

By marrying Xia Chunyu, I can get back my ring. With my ring, I can...

Anyway, it was a free trip traveling through time and I've just gotten a hunk.

Plus, I get to eat, drink, and make trouble.

So, why would I commit suicide?

Are you unwell? Why can't I understand a single thing you're saying?

Drink it.

I have fleas in my throat! Am I going to die?

What dying? Doesn't it feel so good?

- Why are they not jumping around anymore? - Isn't it fun?

This flea water wasn't normal in the beginning,

but it feels so good now.

What flea water?

Since this is the Black Wind Fortress, let's call it the Black Wind Divine Water.

Drinking it will allow your future to go smoothly.

Black Wind Divine Water?

Looks like... he doesn't really trust you, Prince--

Don't call me "Prince," I'm no longer a prince.

Since you're not a prince, why get involved in this mess at Black Wind Fortress?

I am greatly in debt to Prince Yu.

Since he has the people's welfare at heart,

I can't disappoint him.

Luckily, you finally became Third Master of Black Wind Fortress.

It's not that simple.

Swordsman, you let me become the Third Master so soon after accepting me.

Are you afraid that you won't be able to please the clan?

A little.

You've become the son-in-law of Ye Binghuai, that makes you someone with a noble background.

You're now more powerful than anyone in this fortress village.

Does Bai Chongye suspect that you're in league with Ye Binghuai?

By marrying this Ye Jingxuan,

you'll be making enemies along with Ye Binghuai.

Can I not marry her?

If you had married me earlier, you wouldn't be having so much trouble now.

Yiyi.

I know, I'm just teasing you.

Don't be so worried then, it's her honor to be your wife.

Take this back and let's stick to the plan.

What is this?

"The snow will come at the end of the day, thus can you accompany me for a drink?"

I hope that once you get married in the future,

when you see this cup, it will remind you of me.

I will be leaving now.

Be nice to her. It's a show to you.

But to her, it's not.

Am I really going to get married? Why am I so scared?

Don't overthink it. Just go with the flow.

Ye Jiayao, cheer up and don't let them see that you are scared.

Like the "Chicken Soup for the Soul" says, the most important thing is to be happy. (T/N: Book of comfort and well-being)

Xia Chunyu is a good looking guy, after all.

Just take this as... a holiday in ancient times.

Miss Ye.

My dear husband,

you are back.

So sorry, Miss Ye.

It's okay, I know you didn't mean it. One more time.

Husband...

Miss Ye, we come from very different backgrounds.

I never expected we would be married.

You are such an old man. (T/N: Old-fashioned, a drag)

Since this marriage is not by mutual consent,

I will be sleeping in the study from tonight on.

Everything else is routine.

Come here.

Come over here. Closer.

What are you doing?

You have some dirt on your robe.

Where?

Here. Why is it gone?

Can you let go of me?

Husband... you are so handsome.

Maybe we should do some activities...

that couples like to do.

Master Bai.

Why are you here?

Miss Liu, were you crying?

No, it was just some sand in my eyes.

Song Qi didn't do his job well.

Today is Third Brother's marriage day,

but he didn't send you an invitation.

I did receive the invitation, it's just--

"The snow will come at the end of the day, thus can you accompany me for a drink?"

If seeing him will make you sad, maybe you shouldn't visit him.

Actually, my and Young Sir Xia's past,

is already in the past. So I don't wish to talk about it.

To be honest,

Miss Liu, whether you want to talk about it or not,

I still have to know.

Please behave!

Such a prude.

You ancient people are so oppressed.

So stubborn and way too boring.

But luckily, you are very handsome.

I will give you the chance to refuse me.

I want to give you this.

You have the ring, now you don't have to

be so obliging toward me.

The current Madame Ye isn't your biological mother.

I can tell you value this ring very much. It must have belonged to your biological mom.

You can think of it like that.

It's getting late. You should rest and I will sleep in the study.

Wait a minute! Stupid Donkey,

you don't have to sleep in the study.

Do you think I'm super gorgeous and you might lose control?

Do you like me a little?

Hey, if you walk out, I will take that as a "yes."

Do you like to sleep on the inside or the outside?

I first met him on a snowy day.

That day, I had turned down a noble prince's invite.

That prince became furious

and sent someone to trick me into going to a wasteland.

After taking my money and my cloak,

they left me there to freeze to death.

It was Sir Xia who saved me.

And since then we always drink together on snowy days.

He loves to drink the warm plum wine I make.

You two certainly have had your fun times.

He is a gentleman,

but he is not mine.

Now you have to watch him marry someone else.

It's actually all my fault.

Girls like me

are like the soil on the ground.

And Sir Xia

is a star high in the heavens.

I thought he was like us, just a peasant,

but it turns out he is a star in the sky.

Tell me more about him.

Stupid Mule.

Don't call me that. Can you just go to sleep?

When were you born?

August 2nd.

On the lunar calendar, August 2nd is...

You are a Virgo!

You are so finicky, of course, you are a Virgo.

Hey, do you know? I am a Taurus!

We are a match, Stupid Mule!

Can you stop calling me "Stupid Mule!"

It's late in the night, can you lower your voice?

No wonder Song Qi said you've damaged your brain.

- What did he say? - He said your brain was damaged.

How can he say something like that?

But it's still exciting.

What else did he say?

He said you should go to sleep.

Can you please stop talking with me? Is there an end to this?

What are you talking about, it's our wedding night.

How can we just end it like this? Let's chat some more.

It's sad to see you go crazy,

so I will endure.

Other people time travel and end up as concubines,

but I traveled through time to became a female boss in the Mafia.

When the moon is full, it will cause a hyper-energy effect with the worm hole.

I must have traveled through time because of the full moon.

Then next time when there is a full moon, I can travel back.

Little Manager Shen, what day is it today?

The 18th. It will be Eldest Master's birthday in a few days。

Then I will wait for one more month.

One more month of a free ancient time tour

and I have a hot husband, too.

Wow, I hit the lottery!

My fate is changing!

"The mountain has no edges. The ground meets the sky. (T/N: Quotes from drama "My Fair Princess")

That's when I'll say goodbye to you.

Your Majesty, do you remember the girl from

Daming Lake?

The seas may dry up and the rocks might crack.

We are still standing together and holding hands.

The seas may dry up and the rocks might crack.

We are still holding hands, holding hands, holding hands, holding hands, holding hands, hold--"

Again!

Let's do it!

Brothers, come have some tea.

- Come, come. - Tea time!

Here. Here.

Thank you, Sheng Sheng.

Hey, wait! One cup of tea cost 10 wen, give me the money first.

- 10 wen for one cup of tea? - Don't push.

Who are those two girls? It's my first time seeing any other girls in Black Wind Fortress.

Those two?

The showy one is Sang Sang. She is Fourth Master Ma Chenglong's older sister. She loves to dress up.

The one counting the money is Sheng Sheng.

She is Fifth Master He Zhongbao's younger sister. She's a miser.

How can you say a person is a miser? She just knows how to handle money.

I will go talk with them, maybe later we can all hang out.

- Wait, Nainai. - What's wrong?

They are very easily provoked. Don't mind them.

You're saying bad things behind the girls' back, you scoundrel.

- Or is it because you secretly like one of them? - Nonsense!

It's for your own good. They are dying to be wed, but can't find a husband.

You see, you only just got here, and you married well.

- What are you doing? - That tea doesn't cost money.

You are so mean with money! How are you going to marry anyone like this?

Then what about you?

So what? I think you're crazy from wanting a man.

Look at yourself in the mirror. Which man would be interested in you?

- Right? - Stupid Sang Sang!

At least I've saved 300 taels of silver for my wedding.

- I'm better off than you. - So what if you have money?

I'm not like you. You think you can trick men with that thick powder all over your face?

You hit me!

- I'm hitting you, that's right! - I'll hit you!

Stop! Stop the fight.

It's not worth fighting for men in public.

Why do you care?!

Hey, isn't this that Miss Ye who just arrived?

Yes, that's me. The fortress only has you two girls.

You have such a big market, don't fight with each other like this.

I was walking by this group of soldiers exercising... Oh, so hot!

Miss Ye, you are right.

We need to learn from you.

Your hair is so beautiful, what hair ointment do you use?

Nainai, are you all right? (Nai Nai - Paternal Grandmother)

Oh, no! I didn't mean to.

Miss Ye, is this all that you have?

Let me tell you. While you are at Black Wind Fortress,

don't act like you're in charge.

Yeah. All you did is marry a newcomer.

This is too much. Be careful, I might tell Eldest Master!

You go ahead then! Hey, did you see what I did?

No.

Did any of you see anything?

- No. - No.

You guys have no loyalty!

Enough, Little Manager Shen. You think I'm some character from a romantic comedy?

You think I can't deal with you two?

I think, Third Sister-in-Law, you need to go back and change first.

See! That dress is dirty. So ugly.

Little Manager Shen, give me my scissors.

Nianai, this was such a small accident. Don't go that far.

Just do as I say.

Okay.

What is she up to?

Is she crazy?

- Wow. - Wow, this is so amazing!

You are so good.

Beautiful.

So strange. Let's go!

So ugly!

"So ugly!"

Husband, you are back.

What's wrong with your hair?

I cut it. My hair was so long and I don't have any hair products. I was about to get lice.

- Smell this. - Wait. What's wrong with your dress?

I cut it.

I took a tour of the fortress, do you know how many fanboys I got?

Ye Jinxuan, why are you dressing so oddly? Are you still a lady from the Ye family?

I'm not. I'm Madame Xia now.

You go change right now.

You're always wanting me to change clothes.

Do you want to see me undress in front of you?

Ye Jinxuan, it's not polite to see or look or talk to guys.

Everything you say sounds like you're the one who wants to be impolite.

Fine, I'm done talking. I want to sleep.

Hey! Wait, that's my bed!

Why is there a rabbit?

Little Eighth gave me this. He said I'm cute as a rabbit.

Ah, such a cute little thing.

It's best to eat it with a drink for the brothers.

No, this is my gift.

I know now, you are jealous.

I don't get jealous.

Okay, it's all right. I will cook you fried cucumber with vinegar tomorrow. (T/N: "jealous" and "vinegar" are homonyms)

You go change or I will eat this rabbit tomorrow.

Okay, okay, I will go change.

Chunyu, I don't want to share the bed with you tonight.

You go.

Ye Jinxuan, this is my room.

As long as you don't mind the smell, you Virgo.

Eldest Brother.

One thing has me really worried. I heard that Xia Chunyu has been sleeping in his study since he got married.

Do you think he's afraid of Ye Binghuai or is he up to something

that he doesn't want his wife to know about?

♫ Llittle rabbit, so white, loves to eat carrot and greens.

♫ Jumping around so lovely--

What... Has this place been bombed?

Little white rabbit...

How did you get out? Get out here!

- Is this what you were looking for? - Why do you have him?

You're the man all right.

Are you trying to please me?

I will not choose between the freedom of the rabbit or my dressing style.

Let me tell you something.

I have two deals to make with you.

First, if you want the rabbit,

it has to stay in the cage except at mealtime.

What else?

The other thing is if you really want to wear your own dresses,

you can, but only here at home.

- Why? - No reason.

- Aren't you just afraid that people might see my long, beautiful legs? - Don't be like this.

Yes, I'm not comfortable with other people seeing them!

So you are jealous?

Sleeping in the study sure made you behave.

Then can I come back now?

What are you up to?

You tell me?

My lovely wife, one beautiful night is worth thousands of gold.

My lovely husband, don't rush it.

You are usually the one who initiates, why are you so shy all of a sudden?

Are you not fond of me now?

No, no. My nightgown is not sexy.

As long as you are sexy...

I'm not ready actually.

You will be ready after we do it.

Actually, I'm not very comfortable tonight.

But I feel very comfortable.

You rogue, I don't even know you that well!

Rogue! Rogue! Rogue!

Yao Yao.

Yao Yao, what are you doing?

I think you moving back

is something we should discuss more. Can't rush it.

I can't waste that much time.

Then two words: No way!

"No way?" What's this "No way?"

It means no, you can't move back!

Go out, go out, go!

- Go! - Ye Jinxuan!

Hey, this is my room!

Now it's mine!

You open this door!

You are right, I actually don't like you.

Open the door.

- Madame Jiang! - Don't chase me!

Stop running, Madame Jiang!

- Don't come near me! - Madame Jiang.

You let me go! Let me go!

- Madame Jiang. - You are all terrible people, let me go!

- Madame Jiang. - Hold her down.

I will take her pulse.

- You go away! - Madame Jiang.

- Madame Jiang, please calm down. - Don't touch my child...

Don't touch my child.

I'm the wife of the Third Master in Black Wind Fortress.

Don't touch my kid, don't touch me.

Madame Jiang.

Sister-in-Law, what are you doing?

You let me go.

- Madame Jiang. - Don't touch me!

- Don't touch my child. - Madame...

Sister-in-law,

do you still know who I am?

I am Eldest Brother.

Eldest Brother?

I will kill you! I will kill you!

Let me go, I will kill you!

You are evil and I will kill you!

- Take her to rest. - Yes, sir.

- I will kill you! - Madame Jiang.

- Let me go! - Eldest Master.

What is wrong with Jiang Yue?

She's quite pitiful.

Those bastards sent her out of the mountain, regardless of her pregnancy.

She lost her reputation, husband, and child.

When I met her below the mountain, she was already acting like this.

Can you cure her?

I will try my best.

- Thank you. - Farewell.

Eldest Brother.

You know what to do now?

Those animals.

I will cut them into pieces.

Take care of Sister-in-Law. If anything happens to her, it's your responsibility.

Eldest Brother, I know this is my fault.

Maybe I should give my life to Third Brother.

Okay.

Eldest Brother, you would let me do that?

Second Brother, don't use your knife so much.

Use your brain more.

Eldest Brother, I know I'm stupid.

This time it's not you who is stupid.

I caused the death of our former third brother.

Former third brother?

Eldest Brother, are you serious about taking Xia Chunyu as the third brother?

Tell Xia Chunyu that tomorrow we will meet at the temple.

No, Eldest Brother. I thought you were just fooling with him

to test his relationship with Ye Binghuai.

If he had connections with Ye Binghuai, he wouldn't dare to marry Ye Jinxuan.

Even so, you can't just make him the third brother.

Okay. He likes to stay at Yongcui Pavilion, right?

He can replace Ninth Brother and be the assistant around here.

Eldest Brother, you can't do this.

He's just been here for a couple days and he's already in such a high position, what will the other brothers think?

Are you worried about the other brothers or is it just you?

I have nothing but loyalty toward you.

But that guy... What has he got that makes you believe in him so much?

Because Black Wind Fortress needs an...

intellectual.

Bow to Second Master...

Draw blood as a sign of your oath. Once you drink the oath wine,

you will officially become brothers.

You must never forget today's oath.

After drinking the blood wine, we will become brothers.

I just knew you'd want me here.

Yes, and I won't take no for an answer.

Bai Chongye, Xia Chunyu.

Heart to heart.

You are willing to be brothers with different names.

Now the sky and the earth will be your witness. Bow to the sky,

to the earth,

and for a life that will go great

because you met a dear friend. This bow is for each other.

This bow is for sticking with each other through hardship.

- The sky and earth are here to witness, - The sky and earth are here to witness,

- I, Bai Chongye, - I, Xia Chunyu,

today we are sworn brothers.

We will treat each other with honesty, there is no you without me.

We weren't born on the same day but we hope we will die on the same day.

- Good brother. - Eldest Brother.

Xia Chunyu will be Black Wind Fortress's new third master.

If anyone betrays the other brothers, the world will curse you

and you will die under a million knives.

If anyone betrays the other brothers,

the world will curse you, and you will die under a million knives.

Little cutie...

Where are you? Precious?

Bunny? Little rabbit?

Rabbit?

Rabbit?

Where is that rabbit?

Baby?

- Nainai. - Little cutie.

Nainai, he is here.

Oh, Baby, do you have MBD? (T/N: minimal brain dysfunction/ ADD)

Running all around.

I think there might be a female rabbit nearby. You see since the weather is so good,

- so he was probably happy. - Even the rabbit knows to find a wife,

but a certain person won't come coax me.

Nainai, girls are born smarter than boys.

If you are angry, just give him a slap.

But after the slap, also give him something sweet.

You are right. I can't be mad at a donkey.

I will send him some softshell turtle soup.

Husband, it's so late, you are still reading?

Why are you here in the study?

I said you couldn't move back and you really didn't move back.

You have no judgment, that's not how a bossy CEO would act.

Girls don't like that.

So what do you want?

I have changed into new pajamas tonight.

After you finish eating the soup, move back in with me.

Wife, you are so understanding.
