Story of Yanxi Palace

Episode 24

7

In this world, there are no eternal enemies.

8

As long as you're willing to invest...

9

Wrong, as long as you're willing to earnestly ask forgiveness,

10

everything can be resolved amicably.

11

Right, Lord Wei?

12

Yes... What the Prince said is right.

13

Let's go. I'll take you to the Imperial Household Department now.

14

From now on, no one will dare to bully your Wei family.

15

Thank you, Your Highness.

16

I will take my leave.

17

Yingluo.

18

- Yingluo!

- Fuheng! Stop right there.

19

Who gave you the permission to do this?

20

Sister, you also can see how His Majesty

21

is biased and trusting towards Hongzhou.

22

If Yingluo insists on seeking revenge,

23

what will be her result?

24

Now that she's willing to put down her grudge,

25

isn't that to everyone's delight and satisfaction?

26

Despicably using her

27

is not an act of a gentleman.

28

I only want her safe!

29

Even if she hates or blames me, I must ensure that she's safe.

30

Mingyu, I have something to tell you.

31

Don't think that after working together these last two times that we're now equal.

32

Let me tell you, I still don't like you.

33

Yes.

34

Today, it's my turn to watch over the plant nursery.

35

But since last night, my head has been aching.

36

I need to go to the pharmacy to get some medicines. Please keep watch of it for today.

37

I'll exchange shifts with you tomorrow. Okay?

38

You also have a day that you'll ask for help?

39

If you don't agree, I'll look for Zhenzhu then.

40

I didn't say that I wouldn't. Why are you like this?

41

Can't you say a few nice words to beg me?

42

Mingyu, Mingyu, I beg you.

43

Help me with this favor. Okay?

44

Sure. I'll be magnanimous and help you this time.

45

Thanks.

46

Mingyu.

47

Have you seen Yingluo?

48

She has do something and went out. I'm watering the plants for her.

49

What to do? Her Highness ordered me to find her.

50

If Her Highness needs something, it's the same to let me do it.

51

How could your work be compared to Yingluo?

52

Why not? I may not be inferior to her.

53

Moreover, I've served Her Highness for so many years.

54

I'm more experienced than she is.

55

Yingluo has sharp eyes, fast hands, and is very meticulous.

56

She always do things so perfectly and is able to win the approval of Her Highness.

57

Not only you, even I can't compare to her now.

58

I feel annoyed hearing such words.

59

What are you doing?

60

Didn't you say that I'm inferior to her? Why don't I just do nothing?

61

Look at your temper.

62

Her Highness will then say again how your personality can't compare to Yingluo's.

63

Yingluo, Yingluo, Yingluo! Why do you kept talking about her every day?

64

I don't want to hear it anymore!

65

Miss Yingluo.

66

Does Her Highness the Empress have any instructions?

67

No. I came to look for Doctor Ye.

68

Every Imperial physician here in the Imperial Pharmacy

69

has served in the Imperial Medical Academy for six years.

70

During this period, we even have to pass three kinds of examinations before we can enter the palace to be on duty.

71

Even if I just casually find some Imperial physician here, he surely will be better than that Ye Tianshi by a hundred times.

72

He's just a commoner traveling doctor who encountered great luck.

73

Miss YIngluo, why do you believe in him?

74

Imperial Physician, you've misunderstood me.

75

It's because I've lent him two taels of silver while I was still in Yangxin Palace.

76

I especially came today to ask for them.

77

You came to ask for debt payment?

78

That man indeed looks impoverished.

79

Where is he now?

80

Imperial Physician Wang, quickly go to Shou-an Palace.

81

Imperial Consort Dowager Guo is having difficulty breathing. She might not last long.

82

Even Medical Investigator Zhang couldn't do anything, what else can I do?

83

You must still look at her first. Let's go.

84

You...

85

Imperial Consort Dowager Guo?

86

She is a First Class Attendant that the late emperor left behind. She's already been gravely ill since winter.

87

She has been suffering since that time, and a coffin has already been prepared for her.

88

Aren't you looking for someone? Doctor Ye is in the back yard.

89

Bask to death!

90

Doctor Ye!

91

Miss Yingluo.

92

How come you look so sad?

93

How can I not be sad?

94

I'm now a hero without any place to use my skills. A distinguished doctor like me..!

95

Look! Every day, there are no patients at all!

96

It's always those Imperial physicians in front ganging up on me.

97

Always talking about my lacking experience.

98

Always asking me to dry medicines here!

99

If I'd known it would be like this,

100

I wouldn't have entered the palace as decreed.

101

Doctor Ye, why be mad?

102

His Majesty has just recovered not long ago.

103

I'm sure that he'll be asking you to go to Yangxin Palace to check his pulse very soon.

104

What you mean is...I should go complain them.

105

No... I dare not.

106

What if His Majesty gets very mad? I'd lose my head.

107

Why complain?

108

At the time, you just need to ask His Majesty to allow you to leave.

109

Also, you must cry very loudly.

110

Cry?

111

Let His Majesty know that you can't bear to leave him.

112

You're just being pressured by other people so that you can't stay here anymore.

113

As for what specific grievance, don't mention one word.

114

If His Majesty wants to know, he'll have a way to find out.

115

Right!

116

Miss Yingluo, this brain of yours can really move very quickly.

117

You probably have made a lot of anonymous complaints.

118

Back to the main topic,

119

Doctor Ye, I recently keep having headaches.

120

I'm unable to sleep at night.

121

Do you have any medication to treat insomnia?

122

- Let me check your pulse.

- No need! No need!

123

My headache is already an old ailment.

124

I came just to ask if there is a medicine

125

that can make a person immediately sleep

126

after taking it.

127

If you really can't sleep...

128

I have a way. Here!

129

This is the medicine you need.

130

What is this?

131

These are the leaves of mantuoluo. (T/N Datura stramonium, the "mandara" of northern India)

132

Usually, I use this to make anesthetics.

133

Once you use this, I guarantee you that you'll have a good sleep.

134

But you can only use a little. You mustn't overdose.

135

Also, this method won't cure the root cause.

136

Let me prescribe you a nourishing medicine.

137

Take one every day for one month

138

and you'll see the effect.

139

Thank you, Doctor Ye.

140

No need for thanks. I so want it if all of you can get sick!

141

Hongzhou is also not young anymore.

142

How come he's still like a child?

143

I heard that a few days ago,

144

he played a joke on his uncles and brothers again.

145

That's right. Since he was little, this child has always caused trouble

146

upon waking up.

147

If not because His Majesty and Empress Dowager keep taking care of everything,

148

he might just get suddenly slipped into a sack while walking on the streets.

149

Your personality is too gentle and quiet.

150

You only eat vegetarian food and pray to Buddha all day.

151

It's rare for you to step out of Shoukang Palace.

152

How come you gave birth to such a wild child?

153

Tormenting everyone all day long?

154

These past two days, His Majesty also had the intention to teach him a lesson

155

and detained him in Yangxin Palace.

156

As his mother, I really hope that His Majesty won't be lenient.

157

It's good if he can give him a beating.

158

Let him know the severity of his actions.

159

- You can bear this?

- Of course I can bear it.

160

As long as it's good for him, I can bear it.

161

If a jade isn't carved, it can't become a useful ware.

162

I'll immediately send someone to Yangxin Palace now.

163

Tell His Majesty to use a whip and give him a good beating.

164

Maybe after suffering some external torture he'll behave!

165

- Servant.

- I am here.

- Empress Dowager. I...

166

What's wrong?

167

Still can't bear it, right?

168

Empress Dowager, you're still making fun of me?

169

Royal Brother, I've already lost eight games.

170

When will you let me leave the palace?

171

Once you leave the palace, you're going to cause trouble again.

172

I won't. I really won't.

173

Moreover, either you ask me to listen to the Grand Minister of State read his report,

174

or restrain me by practicing writing or playing chess with you.

175

You're making me go crazy.

176

I'm definitely testing your patience.

177

Royal Brother, I'm not fit for this kind of work.

178

Hey! Hey! I made the wrong move!

179

In the past, Royal Father told me...

180

He said that I have no learning skills and I am too naughty.

181

You plan to live your days like this forever?

182

You're my only adult biological brother left.

183

I'm still hoping that you can help unburden me from state affairs.

184

This...the words of Royal Father are like gold.

185

My living my days carefree like this is just following his decree.

186

Royal Brother, you mustn't request everyone to be like you,

187

having skills of a natural-born emperor.

188

Leave...

189

Thank you, Royal Brother, for your special pardon. I'm taking my leave.

190

Don't forget to submit that water management strategy tomorrow.

191

I still have to come back?

192

Come back? You have to come here every day.

193

I will obey.

194

Fifth Prince.

195

Hailancha, I just got rid of Royal Brother.

196

I still haven't relaxed that long, so why are you following me now?

197

That female ghost that night...

198

Resolved.

199

You caught the female ghost?

200

Let me tell you that not only is she not a female ghost,

201

she's even quite a beauty.

202

Hey! Sister-in-law!

203

Prince He of the First Rank, stop making fun of me.

204

Why would I do that?

205

You are indeed my sister-in-law.

206

So Your Highness has indeed acknowledged this marriage?

207

I have. Why wouldn't I?

208

His Majesty has been detaining me every day to shape up. The two of us--

209

Hey! I haven't done talking? Why are you leaving?

210

Your Highness, don't you need to enter the palace every day?

211

If you want to talk, we'll have a lot of chances.

212

Fifth Prince. Fifth Prince.

213

Beautiful.

214

She's more beautiful than her older sister.

215

What are you saying?

216

I must warn you that you mustn't touch that woman.

217

She's just a palace maid. Why can't I touch her?

218

Do you know that if tomorrow I ask His Majesty about her, he'll just gift her to me?

219

Fuheng places her in the tip of his heart.

220

Let me see if she'll like Fuheng or me, Prince He of the First Rank.

221

You... Fifth Prince, if you do things like this, that's being so unkind!

222

Don't worry. Fuheng and I have been friends for a long time.

223

I won't develop some rude intentions.

224

Just want to cherish beauties.

225

Look. I'm just going to look.

226

You've been pacing for two hours.

227

What really do you want to do?

228

Fuheng, I must tell you something.

229

Tell me what?

230

Forget it. Just treat it like I haven't said anything.

231

Fine, I'll just tell you.

232

Fifth Prince wants to dig the corner of your wall.

233

Corner of my wall?

234

Woman. That woman you like the most. Understand?

235

What do you mean?

236

It's exactly as I said.

237

I think that Hongzhou is having some evil thoughts.

238

You had better keep an eye on her.

239

Yingluo, what are you doing?

240

I'm unable to sleep. I'm making a medicated pillow.

241

Imperial Guard Fuca asks that you go outside, for he has something to tell you.

242

- Tell him...that I'm busy.

- Okay.

243

Imperial Guard Fuca, Yingluo said that she's busy.

244

Didn't the Empress teach her the "The Analects"? (T/N sayings and writings of Confucius)

245

Ask her if she knows

246

"The superior man does not promote a man simply on account of his words, nor does he put aside good words because of the man."

247

Even if she firmly believes that I'm an evil person, she should still let me explain.

248

Yingluo, Imperial Guard Fuca said,

249

"The superior man does not promote a man simply on account of his words, nor does he..."

250

You heard it.

251

Tell him that I only learned,

252

"People who like to make flowery speeches and pretending to be amiable are usually less kind."

253

A person who likes to make flowery speeches and betrays others,

254

I will never believe him again!

255

Imperial Guard Fuca, did you hear it?

256

Tell her--

257

You two can hear each other's words.

258

Why still let me be a messenger?

259

I won't bother with you two anymore.

260

Yingluo.

261

Yingluo, I hope that before you do anything,

262

you must think about it carefully first.

263

Hongzhou isn't as simple as you think.

264

You must be careful.

265

Imperial Consort Dowager Guo has a strong personality.

266

She usually isn't harmonious with the other Imperial Consorts Dowager.

267

Now, she just left like that.

268

She didn't even have anyone sending her off.

269

So pitiful.

270

- Erqing.

- Here.

271

Help prepare a funeral gift and send it there

272

to express my condolences.

273

I will go now.

274

Your Highness the Empress, Erqing is so busy. Let me go instead.

275

Have you ever been to Shou-An Palace?

276

Before, I once delivered spring clothes there.

277

I won't get lost.

278

Since that's the case, you go then.

279

Yes.

280

Your Highness, where are you going?

281

We must rush to go out of the palace before the curfew.

282

None of your business.

283

- Remove your clothes.

- This...

284

Take my waist badge and exit as usual.

285

Your Highness, you mustn't.

286

If you dare leak this out, I'll have your life!

287

Hurry... Remove your clothes.

288

What are you doing?

289

Prince He of the First Rank?

290

I...

291

I came to deliver Imperial Consort Dowager Guo some money.

292

Oh...Shou-An Palace is outside the forest.

293

Why did you enter the forest instead?

294

Oh, I know already.

295

You are making an offering to your older sister?

296

Your Highness! I...

297

I know that it's forbidden to make offerings in the palace.

298

But Prince, you plan to accept Sister into your manor.

299

That is a huge matter after all.

300

I must tell her about it, right?

301

You know that it's forbidden to make offerings to the dead here in the palace.

302

You still sneakily came here.

303

Aren't you deliberately breaking a rule that you know of?

304

- I...

- Let's go! Come with me to the Empress.

305

Let me see how long she'll keep on harboring you.

306

Your Highness, Your Highness!

307

You already said that I'm your sister-in-law.

308

Since we're one family, why must you do this?

309

Since you know we're one family,

310

shouldn't you attend to me in place of your sister?

311

Your Highness, you mustn't joke around about such things.

312

I'm not joking with you.

313

If you won't agree,

314

I can only expose this matter.

315

Let me think about it carefully.

316

At least...

317

I should ask my sister first.

318

Okay. I'll wait for you here.

319

Think about it well.

320

Sister...

321

I especially came here today to visit you,

322

because I want to tell you a very important thing.

323

Prince He of the First Rank...

324

has already felt extreme remorse...

325

for what happened before.

326

He promised to accept you into his manor,

327

and even will transfer your tomb.

328

How come you don't have ingots and paper money when you make offerings to the dead?

329

Sister...

330

I miss you so much.

331

- What scent is that?

- SIster!

332

Sister...

333

I know that you will never forgive.

334

Today, I will let you personally see

335

how I will punish this perpetrator today.

336

You deliberately lured me to here. And that fire...

337

You did this intentionally!

338

Wei Yingning, this person for you

339

might just be a palace maid you raped because you were drunk.

340

But she...was the most important person for me

341

in this world!

342

My mother died giving birth to me.

343

It was my sister...

344

who took care of me like a mother.

345

She's my everything!

346

Sister...

347

she went into the palace at age fifteen.

348

I'd wait for her, look forward for her return

349

outside the Gate of Divine Might every day!

350

Nine years.

351

I waited for a whole nine years!

352

I finally was able to wait for it.

353

My sister would be coming home soon. (T/N Palace maids released at age 25 usually)

354

But because of you...

355

because of your having a moment of absurdity...

356

my sister is dead.

357

My sister is dead!

358

She's dead!

359

What's most funny is...

360

a murderer like you...

361

You...

362

should have been cut into pieces.

363

But...because you're an Imperial relative,

364

you've repeatedly escaped punishment!

365

You actually were still immensely pleased with yourself

366

for saying that you're going to accept my sister into your manor.

367

Just you?

368

Are you even qualified?

369

Hongzhou!

370

Help!

371

Help!

372

Help! Help!

373

Help! Help!

374

Help!

375

What sound is that?

376

Quickly go look.

377

Help!

378

Help! Help!

379

Help! Help!

380

Someone wants to kill me!

381

- What's going on?

- Save me!

382

- Prince.

- Someone wants to kill me!

383

Save me!

384

Help! Someone wants to kill me!

385

- Let's quickly go look.

- Help!

386

Help!

387

Your Majesty!

388

Save me! Prince He of the First Rank has gone crazy!

389

- He's crazy!

- Royal Brother! She wants to kill me!

390

He...

391

Earlier, he disguised himself and sneaked into the inner palace.

392

He even stalked me with evil intentions.

393

He got discovered by me and wanted to silence me!

394

Don't listen to her rubbish, Your Majesty!

395

It was she who lured me to go there.

396

She wants to kill me!

397

She even drugged me. She wants to kill me!

398

The palace gates are now locked.

399

As a respectable Prince of the First Rank,

400

why are you wearing eunuch clothes and still remaining here in the palace?

401

Your Majesty.... It's not like what she said.

402

It's her. She's trying to frame me.

403

You were harboring evil intentions to begin with.

404

After getting discovered by me,

405

Your Highness actually would come up with such huge lies!

406

Think about it.

407

How could a weak woman like me

408

scheme to deceive a Prince of the First Rank to come here?

409

All this is too absurd!

410

You bitch!

411

Shut up!

412

Your Majesty, you must not believe her!

413

She talks cleverly and in an ingratiating manner. She's heartless and will just suddenly turn hostile against you!

414

You mustn't believe her!

415

Your Majesty, save me!

416

Your Majesty, save me!

417

Save me!

418

Beast!

419

How can you believe her?

420

I'm your biological brother!

421

How could you believe this woman and not me!

422

Men! Detain him in Yangxin Palace!

423

How could you not believe me!

424

Why won't you believe me? Why!

425

Keep up with us.

426

Miss Yingluo, quickly cover yourself.

427

Imperial Consort Dowager Yu, Prince He of the FIrst Rank is in trouble.

428

Speak.

429

Why are you not in Changchun Palace at this time?

430

Imperial Consort Dowager Guo has died.

431

Her Highness the Empress pitied her, so she ordered me

432

to deliver her some money for the dead.

433

Midway, I bumped into Prince He of the First Rank. He attempted to rape me.

434

Is everything you're saying true?

435

The Qing Empire has a rule

436

that all Imperial relatives committing a crime must be judged by the Emperor.

437

During the time of Emperor Yongzheng, there was an Imperial relative

438

who just casually kidnapped and raped a beautiful lady.

439

When the matter got exposed, he just got fined and the case was closed.

440

Then it means if Prince He of the First Rank likes a palace maid,

441

even if he disguises himself and trespasses into the prohibited area of the palace at night

442

and will bring shame to the Imperial family, as long as Your Majesty doesn't investigate it further,

443

- he surely will stay safe and sound.

- Are you still silent!

444

Your Highness the Empress, you can't just barge in...

445

Your Majesty.

446

Yingluo doesn't know how to write and has a limited education.

447

She doesn't mean to anger Your Majesty with her words.

448

It's just that she might have used the wrong words.

449

Empress, did you especially come to defend her?

450

Your Majesty, I believe in the words she said.

451

You trust her that much?

452

I...

453

can guarantee it with my life.

454

Yingluo...didn't lie.

455

It must be Hongzhou

456

who did an unforgivable thing.

457

- Your Highness the Empress!

- You have no speaking privileges here.

458

Your Majesty, I don't have the right to interfere

459

about how you will deal with Prince He of the First Rank.

460

But Wei Yingluo is my servant.

461

She's my trusted aide.

462

If she did something wrong, I surely will severely punish her.

463

But if...

464

anyone bullies her,

465

I will also not sit by and watch.

466

She's involved in this case.

467

No, Your Majesty. She's a witness.

468

I must take her away unscathed.

469

Take her away with you.

470

Thank you, Your Majesty, for your kindness.

471

Your Majesty, Imperial Consort Dowager Yu is here.

472

Speak. What mistake did you commit again?

473

Mother, I didn't. I'm being falsely accused!

474

You...

475

Your Majesty.

476

Li Yu.

477

I'm here.

478

Inform Imperial Consort Dowager Yu.

479

Yes.

480

Imperial Consort Dowager Yu, Prince He of the First Rank drank a lot this evening

481

and rushed into the Imperial palace and committed a disrespectful crime.

482

Your Majesty. He...

483

really did something like this?

484

Mother, I didn't.

485

It was her. That slut, she framed me!

486

Shut up!

487

Bailing.

488

Mother.

489

Did I tell you to err? You are so clueless.

490

Did I tell you to disappoint His Majesty? Empress Dowager trusted you a lot.

491

You broke my heart. I'm going to beat you.

492

I'm going to beat you to death.

493

Mother. Mother!

494

I'm didn't do it. I'm being falsely accused.

495

Falsely accused? Why aren't others being falsely accused?

496

Why are you the only one?

497

Isn't it because your actions are usually so outrageous? That's why you fell into this state?

498

His Majesty misses his brother and didn't punish you.

499

As a mother, if I don't punish you, I will be spoiling you.

500

I don't even know what kind of mistakes you will commit again in the future!

501

- I'm beating you.

- Don't.

502

Stop beating me.

503

Enough.

504

Your Majesty, Hongzhuo did such a rebellious act.

505

I didn't teach him properly. I have wronged Your Majesty.

506

I have wronged the Empress Dowager.

507

Your Majesty, please punish Hongzhuo and convict me too.

508

As a mother, let me pay for his sin too.

509

Let me make up for his sin too.

510

I'm begging you, Your Majesty.

511

Imperial Consort Dowager Yu, Hongzhuo committed the sin. What has it to do with you?

512

- Li Yu.

- Here.

513

Escort Imperial Consort Dowager Yu back to Shoukang Palace first.

514

Yes.

515

Your Majesty!

516

Go back.

517

Hongzhuo!

518

Your Highness the Empress, I'm guilty.

519

Even if you don't tell me about what happened today,

520

I also know very well that

521

Prince He injured someone. As a descendant of the royal family,

522

he escaped punishment.

523

He is unrepentant, threatens and bribes, and forces others for forgiveness.

524

But a forced sale isn't a sale.

525

Based on your personality, how could you tolerate his savage behavior again?

526

But Yingluo, how could you do something like this?

527

Your Highness, you distinctly know that I'm guilty

528

and you still protected me.

529

I'm unable to pay you back for your kindness

530

but I have repeatedly committed mistakes.

531

I have already implicated you. If next time...

532

There's still a next time?

533

You are still not giving up?

534

His Majesty dotes on Hongzhou.

535

Do you know that? He beat up a Military Minister

536

and publicly made fun of the clan. His Majesty could even turn a blind eye.

537

If I didn't arrive in time just now,

538

in order to protect Hongzhuo, he could have killed you to vent his resentment!

539

- Your Highness.

- Yingluo.

540

I'm warning you.

541

You are not allowed to take actions against Hongzhuo again.

542

Did you hear me?

543

Wei Yingluo, I'm ordering you!

544

You are not allowed to act in an arbitrary and reckless manner again

545

and harm Prince He of the First Rank! Did you hear me?

546

I will follow your order.

547

What medicine is this? Are you trying to poison me to death?

548

Your Highness, please spare my life. The Imperial Physician said you were drunk, exposed to the wind

549

and suffered from whippings too. That's why you fell sick.

550

You should dissipate the evil outwards by drinking medicine internally to cool the heat.

551

I already said that I didn't drink!

552

I didn't drink. I wasn't drunk. I didn't!

553

You can leave us.

554

- Leave us.

- Yes.

555

When I recover from my illness, I will kill that slut!

556

- Are you crazy?

- Don't you even know what you have done?

557

If you didn't harm anyone, why would Yingluo want to kill you?

558

Fuheng, we have known each other for many years.

559

You are treating me this way because of a slut?

560

Who exactly is the cheap person?

561

Me...I'm the lowlife. Release me.

562

I can't breathe.

563

I know you didn't kill anyone

564

but you won't get away with this.

565

I'm warning you.

566

Stop harassing Yingluo.

567

Are you kidding?

568

She is a vicious and crazy woman.

569

You can like anyone, but you like her?

570

I don't want to repeat myself. Remember this.

571

In the future, when you see Wei Yingluo, please turn around and leave immediately.

572

Or else, every time when I see you, I will beat you.

573

I'm letting you live this time. Treasure this well.

574

Men, I'm hurting all over. Men!

575

Your Highness, Your Highness!

576

Men, call for the Imperial Physician now!

577

Empress Dowager.

578

Hongzhuo caught a cold

579

and is sick.

580

His Majesty sent two Imperial Physicians to attend to him.

581

Why are you still here chanting the scriptures?

582

Hongzhou committed a grave mistake. I fear that his life span would be reduced.

583

Thus, I'm chanting the scriptures to make up for his sin.

584

You usually don't even go to the garden

585

for fear of stepping on an ant.

586

You are such a kind person.

587

How could you have such a stubborn and disobedient child?

588

If His Majesty didn't suppress it,

589

I wonder how much this matter would have blown up.

♫ Nothing you can do about being approached, not being inconsistent in love,♫
