Story of Yanxi Palace

Episode 29

7

Let me tell you that a gentleman is also a man.

8

You're wrong.

9

You!

10

You really know how to hurt and insult me.

11

But let me tell you that since it was you who provoked me first,

12

I will never let you repay your debt to me in this manner.

13

I'll let you owe me forever until you feel guilty.

14

Once you marry me,

15

I will then slowly make you pay.

16

Young Master,

17

you really think that there will be such a day?

18

If you're not willing to have an audience with the Emperor, I won't force you.

19

If you want to stay here in the Workhouse, I will wait for you.

20

I will wait until you abandon your grudges and let go of your burdens.

21

No matter how long, even if I have to use a whole lifetime,

22

I will wait for you.

23

So you're a paper tiger! (T/N appears fierce but isn't really)

24

- You...

- Go back. I'll get going now.

25

Quickly fasten your dress.

26

- Li Yu.

- I am here.

27

How long has that servant been scrubbing commodes in the Workhouse?

28

Replying to Your Majesty, it's more than a half month.

29

She hasn't cried?

30

She hasn't begged for mercy?

31

I think she won't cry until she sees a coffin.

32

Even when she sees a coffin, she will get in first and lie down for a while.

33

I understand what Your Majesty means.

34

I will instruct people now to increase her workload.

35

Add more until she cries.

36

Yes.

37

She's Wei Yingluo?

38

Yingluo, quickly make a bow.

39

What did you put inside the commode?

40

Replying to Supervisor Zhang, I placed charcoal ashes in the ordinary commodes,

41

and placed fine sand in those of the Imperial consorts. I couldn't find any better materials.

42

How could it be better?

43

The wood shavings of agarwood work the best. I guarantee that you won't smell any stink.

44

Look at how clear that water is. It can even reflect a person's image already.

45

You're great, Wei Yingluo.

46

I finally know why the Empress praised you a lot.

47

Supervisor Zhang, you have said it too seriously. I'm just doing my job well.

48

You hear that? Do as she said.

49

Yes.

50

Placing a person like that here is a waste of her talent.

51

Find her something less laborious.

52

Wei Yingluo, you're able to clean commodes in a manner apart from everyone else.

53

That's called being pretentious.

54

Quickly wash them. After washing, dispose of the water.

55

A person who doesn't know to appreciate favors.

56

You have a naturally good-looking face.

57

How come you have a wood-like brain?

58

For Supervisor Zhang to like you is a fortune you've earned from your past life.

59

If you follow him, you won't need to be this lowest of eunuch positions.

60

I'm a man,

61

not a rabbit.

62

Just you wait. You'll suffer.

63

So you can speak!

64

You're sure that she brings that man food every day?

65

That man is usually very vigilant and he fights fiercely.

66

But he never touches our food here.

67

Now, we finally find a chance.

68

Eat.

69

You haven't eaten for a day.

70

So you're here sneaking to drink cold water.

71

This is a mantou I left for you. Eat it.

72

You think I want to socialize with you?

73

If you get sick, I'll be the one to deliver the dung out of the palace.

74

Eat it.

75

Yuan Chunwang, let's see where you can run to now.

76

Why are you still lying down? Quickly get up!

77

Get up. Let's quickly go.

78

Hurry! Let's go!

79

Quickly go!

80

If we leave him here and he talks,

81

neither of us will live.

82

Okay. I'll help you one more time.

83

Tomorrow morning

84

the dung cart will be transported out of the Forbidden City.

85

A manure cart is very dirty. The guards are already used to seeing it.

86

They surely will not check it.

87

Without a waist badge, he then has left the palace without permission.

88

If he returns, he will be executed. He naturally won't dare to come back.

89

Why are you looking at me?

90

Look at me.

91

Even thought I'm not extremely beautiful,

92

my looks are still acceptable, right?

93

How come this Supervisor Zhang didn't like me,

94

and instead liked you?

95

What a pity...what a great pity.

96

He has eyes, but couldn't appreciate an item with gold and jade inlays.

97

That's more like it.

98

A person like that is a villain. No need to punish yourself because of him.

99

Without him, you can be at ease and eat now.

100

No need to avoid people and eat the food disposed of in the canal,

101

or drink cold water.

102

How did you know?

103

I...

104

I'm smart.

105

That incident earlier really scared me.

106

I'm so scared that my hands are still trembling now.

107

But this man inside this dung cart is a huge problem.

108

Be careful tomorrow.

109

You go back first. I know what to do.

110

Okay.

111

What are you doing?

112

You're talking.

113

Hey, you didn't talk with me the whole day today.

114

I thought that you'd become a mute too.

115

Wei Yingluo, when you just arrived here in Yongxiang (Never-Ending Alley),

116

just to find out the truth about me, you chatted with me with half-sincerity.

117

After getting found out by me, why are you not talking anymore?

118

Yuan Chunwang. You're the one who knocked Supervisor Zhang unconscious.

119

How come you still act as if nothing happened?

120

- Aren't you afraid that I—

- Don't say such rubbish.

121

It's you who knocked him out.

122

Have you forgotten? That night...you were so resolute.

123

Lodging a complaint against yourself is accusing me. Accusing me is accusing yourself.

124

We are ants walking on the same rope.

125

- You won't be that stupid.

- You...!

126

What are you doing?

127

Flying into a rage out of humiliation...

128

Wei Yingluo, it has always been you threatening others

129

and never the other way around, right?

130

Do you feel so mad right now? So want to chop me into pieces?

131

Come on, come on!

132

Yes! It's my first time meeting someone more evil and more shameless than myself!

133

Forbidden City is indeed a place that hides tigers and dragons.

134

Each one better than the other.

135

That's more like it. Let me tell you, Wei Yingluo,

136

that the Forbidden City hides tigers and dragons.

137

Each one better than the other.

138

Treating women like that is very disrespectful. Do you know that?

139

What should I be afraid of? There are no good manners between men and women between us.

140

Moreover, I'm not some young master from a respectable and noble family.

141

I've never been educated and don't understand any logic.

142

- Get up.

- I won't.

143

Get up first!

144

So many women here in the Workhouse like you. I don't want to be the enemy of everyone.

145

Don't worry. This is Yongxiang.

146

What does that mean?

147

It means that the most lowly palace maid of the Workhouse

148

will also look down on the lowly eunuchs here.

149

Their so-called "liking" is just going after my superficial look.

150

That Jinxiu you speak of has never stepped into here.

151

I'm unable to bear a liking like that.

152

Is it because of that the reason you don't like her?

153

I don't like women.

154

Then you like...men?

155

- What are you laughing about?

- I don't like men, I don't like men...

156

You don't like men nor women.

157

I just like myself, okay?

158

Wei Yingluo, let me say something serious with you.

159

Fuca Fuheng will forever stand under the sunlight.

160

You can only stand in the dark corner.

161

You two can never be together.

162

It's the truth.

163

Hey! What is it now?

164

Yuan Chunwang! Did you peek that day!

165

No! No! I really didn't!

166

- I just...

- You...

167

- I just saw a little.

- Tell me what you saw!

168

Pink... I didn't see anything!

169

- No color at all. Nothing!

- You!

170

- I didn't see it. I really didn't see it.

- Yuan Chunwang!

171

- I didn't see it.

- You asshole!

172

Don't.

173

- Shut up!

- It was pink.

174

- It was pink!

- Stop right there! Don't talk! Stop right there!

175

Did you hear it? Supervisor Zhang went missing.

176

Chief Steward Wu got so mad saying that he did things so carelessly.

177

He wants him captured and be punished.

178

A beast like that should disappear forever.

179

What are you all saying? Work faster!

180

Her Highness the Empress is coming. Quickly kneel!

181

Kneel!

182

Kneel!

183

Quickly go back to work.

184

What are you looking at?

185

You are now a lowly slave of the Workhouse.

186

You think your mistress the Empress will still remember you?

187

Stop thinking of leaving this hard sea.

188

Quickly go back to work.

189

Work!

190

You! I told you to remove the grass and you're just dilly-dallying.

191

- Work! Stop being lazy!

- I dare not do it again, Momo!

192

Quickly!

193

A heart higher than the sky, a life thinner than paper.

194

This is an innate servile fate.

195

If you don't work for a day, you won't be able to eat anything.

196

Quickly go back to work!

197

Stop waving your hand. I can see.

198

Wei Yingluo got sent to the Workhouse.

199

You're not worried at all?

200

Imperial Consort Dowager Yu suddenly died and caused a huge ruckus in the palace.

201

Getting punished to go to the Workhouse is actually a form of protection towards Wei Yingluo.

202

That may be right, but Yingluo has a unique personality.

203

A delicate lady getting sent to do such laborious work,

204

will she really not develop any grudge?

205

Still scrubbing?

206

Yuan Chunwang?

207

Call me Brother Yuan. So disrespectful.

208

So silly. I'm not calling you that.

209

After I exposed your real character, you've become more unbridled.

210

Give me your hand.

211

- What are you doing?

- Know to appreciate a good intention.

212

This is called Cephalanoplos thistle. It mainly relieves inflammation and pain.

213

Is it painful?

214

People like us are just rotten lives in front of those high-status people.

215

When we're still useful, we're their guard dogs.

216

When we're useless, no one will even look at you even if you die on the streets.

217

Hence, we must cherish our own lives.

218

You hear me?

219

Come... You do it yourself.

220

Look at how good I am to you.

221

Can that Fuca Fuheng of yours love you like I do?

222

Let me tell you that it's useless no matter how he loves you.

223

He likes you because you're young, beautiful, novel, and interesting.

224

After a few years, when that novelty of yours pass,

225

will he still love you like he used to?

226

In my opinion, he won't.

227

I know that you are capable and scheming.

228

So what?

229

Don't forget. Fuheng lost the trust of the Emperor because of you.

230

You think he won't hate you?

231

I just like him. You can't do anything about that.

232

Tell Fuheng to scrub this for you then!

233

I didn't ask you to scrub it for me!

234

Take this back.

235

Hey Wei Yingluo...

236

I'm doing this for your sake, do you know that?

237

You're jealous of me.

238

You're jealous that someone loves me. Jealous that I have a way out. Jealous that I'm full of hope.

239

Why are you looking at me?

240

I know everything just by looking in your eyes.

241

Wei Yingluo... Did you notice it?

242

The two of us are completely identical.

243

Just based on your gaze, I already know that you're thinking of something evil.

244

When I say the first part of a statement, you already know what I will say next.

245

We're like looking at each other in a mirror.

246

Wei Yingluo, stop liking Fuheng, okay?

247

Like me instead.

248

Two snakes are both cold-blooded animals.

249

How can they then provide heat for each other?

250

If we can't provide heat for each other,

251

if we can't mutually provide heat, we could at least take care of each other, right?

252

Yingluo, let's make a pact of alliance, how about it?

253

Making an alliance should be fine, right?

254

Make an alliance?

255

What alliance.

256

What are you doing?

257

Wei Yingluo, come up here.

258

Are you coming up or not?

259

Wei Yingluo killed Supervisor Zhang!

260

Are you crazy, Yuan Chunwang!

261

Yingluo, look at the galaxy above.

262

Actually, no matter how noble the status of a person is,

263

even if he is the descendant of the heavens,

264

he's still just a very small star within the bright galaxy.

265

So who can really be more noble than anyone else?

266

Yingluo, look.

267

One day, I will make everyone know

268

that I, Yuan Chunwang, a wild man who came from a lowly family,

269

will be able to walk far and fly high in this Forbidden City.

270

YIngluo, why don't we do this?

271

Starting today, I'll be your older brother and bosom friend.

272

Let me protect you.

273

The two of us warming each other and supporting each other.

274

Live in this dark palace together!

275

Okay!

276

Is it okay for me to be your lover?

277

Dream on!

278

Yuan Chunwang!

279

I told you that I can guess your every move.

280

Quickly call me your older brother!

281

Quickly clean up all these things and go back!

282

You all look carefully. Her Highness the Noble Consort wants to make rouge.

283

She just wants the petals with the purest color. All others are rejected.

284

Your Highness, look. This color is very nice.

285

Don't be so rough. You'll hurt the flower.

286

Okay. Yes.

287

Greetings Your Highness the Noble Consort.

288

Consort Xian, you're such a kind person.

289

You show so much care for even just one flower.

290

Recently, I've been personally leading my palace maids to make rouge.

291

I come here to pick fresh flowers every day early in the morning.

292

Consort Xian is here to...

293

Replying to Your Highness the Noble Consort, I'm here to harvest dew for tea.

294

Make tea?

295

I think that's not true.

296

Since the Empress got pregnant,

297

you will gather dew here every morning and send it to Changchun Palace.

298

Aren't you fawning too much?

299

I can't understand.

300

Why must you imitate Consort Chun?

301

Acting like some lackey every day, closely following the Empress?

302

What are you after?

303

May Noble Consort be careful with your words. No matter how useless I am, I'm still a consort.

304

If I've become a lackey, what then will become of His Majesty?

305

Zhilan, did I hear it correctly?

306

Were you able to clearly understand what Consort Xian said earlier?

307

Your Highness, Consort Xian said that you should be careful with your words.

308

The sun has risen from the west!

309

The Consort Xian who is usually very cautious in speech and actions, and always bears things patiently,

310

how come you've become so clever, eloquent, and overbearing?

311

Who gave you the boldness to question me!

312

Your Highness the Noble Consort has natural grace and divine fragrance. (T/N exceptionally pretty)

313

You also have the Gao clan as your backer.

314

Naturally, you can terrify the inner palace and walk without fear.

315

But don't forget that

316

a flower will not stay red for a hundred days, a person will not have good fate for a thousand days.

317

Once the Empress gives birth to a legitimate son and becomes the mother of the Crown Prince,

318

by then...

319

Her Highness the Empress loves to drink sour plum soup the most.

320

I'm picking some now and won't accompany you further.

321

I will take my leave now.

322

You...

323

Your Highness, that Consort Xian is being extremely daring.

324

She dares to openly contradict you.

325

Of course, I won't put any importance to a measly Consort Xian.

326

For her to dare to be so arrogant now,

327

isn't all because she has the Empress backing her up?

328

No matter how you look at it, it's the mistress of Changchun Palace that's having a child.

329

His Majesty has always been hoping for a legitimate child to succeed the throne.

330

If this prince safely gets born,

331

I fear that it would be like what Consort Xian said, that Your Highness will not have any more shelter.

332

That will still depend if she's able to bear one or not.

333

Your Highness, you have a new plan?

334

I can't continue waiting anymore.

335

Or else, I will be like the flower soil here in the Imperial Garden,

336

getting trampled on by everyone.

337

Zhilan, quickly call Noble Lady Shu to come to Chuxiu Palace.

338

Say that I have an important matter to discuss with her.

339

You clearly knew that Her Highness the Noble Consort comes here every day to pick some fresh flowers.

340

Why did you not change to another area?

341

Of course, it's because I want her to see me.

342

I don't understand.

343

Haven't you always been forbearing?

344

Why did you especially bump into her today?

345

You will understand in the future.

346

Let's go to Changchun Palace to deliver the dew.

347

I order Zhong Yongtan to meet Governor Zhou Xuejian to provide disaster relief.

348

This matter hasn't been initiated yet, but everyone already knows about it.

349

How could my secret letter get leaked?

350

Your Majesty, based on my investigation, it's exactly because Zhong Yongtan and Orongan, the eldest son of Ortai, are very close.

351

The news was initially leaked by Zhong Yongtan.

352

He has a lot of nerve.

353

He dared to leak the content of a secret Imperial letter.

354

In your opinion, how should I deal with him?

355

Replying to Your Majesty, Zhong Yongtan is an important ally of Ortai.

356

If we don't handle him properly, it might incite unrest.

357

May Your Majesty think about it carefully.

358

Spread my decree! Zhong Yongtan leaked a secret Imperial letter

359

and is immediately being removed from his post. He is to be taken into the Office of Careful Punishment.

360

Order Prince Zhuang of the First Rank, Prince Lu of the First Rank, Prince He of the First Rank, and Prince Ping of the Second Rank,

361

Grand Secretaries Zhang Tingyu and Xu Ben,

362

and Minister Neqin to do the public trial.

363

Not only Zhong Yongtan, Orongan will also be imprisoned.

364

Your Majesty, you're going to touch Ortai?

365

Indecision invariably leads to trouble.

366

They have repeatedly challenged my limit.

367

I want to tell them that regardless if it's Ortai or Zhang Tingyu,

368

I would not allow anyone to offend the Imperial power.

369

One more thing.

370

Governor-General Yin Jishan of the two rivers, and Governor-General Bai Zhongshan of the Southern Yangtze River

371

are against Gao Bin's flood prevention and water conservation construction project

372

on the Yellow River and Hongze Lake.

373

What is your opinion about this?

374

Your Majesty, dividing the downstream water flow

375

and preventing the upstream from overflowing is what should be urgently done to mitigate this disaster.

376

Gao Bin once said that the river water conservation project would affect the seven provinces of Su, Huai, Xu, Hai, Feng, Ying, and Si.

377

There will be an estimated one hundred and forty-eight ditches and canals made.

378

If it can be successfully dredged, it would surely be a good thing that will benefit the empire and its citizens.

379

Hence, I must heavily reward Gao Bin

380

and release one million nine hundred thousand taels of funds

381

mainly for the management of the riverways of the lakes.

382

Your Majesty is wise.

383

How am I wise?

384

This way, not only will the citizens benefit from this achievement that will last for thousands of years,

385

Gao Bin will also loyally serve you more.

386

He and Ortai will now be on separate paths.

387

The Ortai alliance falling apart, while the Zhang alliance will surely introspect and increase their vigilance.

388

Isn't this a good thing?

389

Fuheng,

390

if you could be more precise in choosing a woman like the way you handle state affairs,

391

I would feel more comforted.

392

Your Majesty, I still believe that my choice is right.

393

Your Majesty, the banquet in Yujing Pavilion is now ready.

394

I'm handling state affairs.

395

Instruct the Empress to make sure that the matter is handled properly.

396

Yes.

397

One day, I will personally remove the mask of Wei Yingluo.

398

Slowly.

399

Your Highness, the imperial physician said that you should recuperate in peace.

400

Today, Empress Dowager is holding a banquet in Yujing Pavilion.

401

It's inconvenient for you since you're pregnant.

402

Why not just ask to be excused from it?

403

Empress Dowager has always been forgiving. She won't blame you.

404

Mingyu, because of the matter of Imperial Consort Dowager Yu, the Empress Dowager has been depressed.

405

It's not easy that she was finally able to prop her spirit up and organize a "Double Yang Festival" banquet. (T/N Chongyang, ninth day of the ninth lunar month)

406

If Her Highness doesn't go, won't that kill everyone's joy?

407

Although Empress Dowager won't say anything,

408

that mistress of Chuxiu Palace will surely incite trouble.

409

By then, she'll surely say that Her Highness is using the child in her womb

410

and is acting delicate just because she's being favored.

411

But Her Highness is clearly not feeling well.

412

Your Highness, should we have an Imperial physician go with us?

413

Look at how nervous you two are.

414

I'm feeling very well.

415

It's just that lately, I feel so tired. Too lazy to move around.

416

Quickly dress me up so we won't be late.

417

I'll accompany you later.

418

Me too!

419

If you two both go, who will take care of Changchun Palace?

420

Erqing will stay behind today, while MIngyu will go with me to the banquet.

421

Yes.

422

Yes.

423

My recent complexion is too ugly.

424

Place some makeup on it and don't let the Empress Dowager see it, or else she'll worry again.

425

Stop crying and don't let others hear it.

426

Enough. Come.

427

Quickly wipe it dry. Stop crying.

428

Stop crying...

429

- Stop crying.

- Stop crying.

430

Be careful of inviting the attention of the guards or you two will surely lose your lives.

431

Stop scaring people!

432

Stop crying. Be good.

433

Why are you crying?

434

Miss, just to prepare for the Empress Dowager's birthday, Her Highness the Noble Consort

435

especially had us stay here in the palace

436

to perform our special act, "Thousands of Purples and Reds".

437

Then he...

438

How come he's like this?

439

This "Thousands of Purples and Reds" is

440

splashing molten iron on the brick wall.

441

It's like thousands of fresh flowers blossoming. So indescribably wonderful.

442

Commanding Officer Gao Heng knew about this act of ours.

443

He used the excuse of sending a birthday greeting

444

to abduct us into the palace.

445

He even forced some of our fellow villagers and my grandson to learn it.

446

In this performance, a certain amount of strength is required.

447

- Yingluo...

- He's still a child.

448

- How could he not get hurt?

- Yingluo!

449

Stop meddling... Let's go... We can't help you with this. YIngluo, quickly go...

450

Stop pulling me! I can walk by myself.

451

Miss, just leave.

452

Let's go.

453

If I don't pull you away, you surely will meddle. Don't I know you?

454

Let me tell you that not only the 'Thousands of Purples and Reds',

455

even those embroidery maids from your Embroidery House,

456

they surely would be working happily if they were outside among the commoners.

457

Once you enter the Forbidden City, you have to rush to work every day and night.

458

Before they even reach the age of thirty,

459

they will go blind and their hands will tremble, becoming a useless person.

460

This is the Forbidden City. This is power.

461

As long as you don't climb up to a high position and become a noble yourself,

462

you can only wait for others to dictate your fate.

463

Hence, while you still are unable to fend for yourself,

464

don't say anything, pretend to not see anything.

465

Enough already. It's already so late. Let's quickly go.

466

It's not convenient to go up this Yujing Pavilion.

467

Didn't I tell you to rest in Changchun Palace and not come anymore?

468

It's rare for Your Highness the Empress Dowager to have this kind of interest. I should be attending by your side.

469

Moreover, I'm healthy.

470

Just because I'm pregnant, His Majesty ordered that

471

I just lie down in Changchun Palace everyday. I really can't take it anymore.

472

Today, I just want to use this Double Yang banquet to come out and take in some fresh air.

473

I'll treat this as Empress Dowager's grace then.

474

You...

475

You should still prioritize taking care of your health.

476

Stop pushing yourself too hard.

477

There are a lot of affairs to manage here in the palace.

478

I indeed am sensing that my energy can't catch up with it.

479

Hope Empress Dowager can be merciful and remove the heavy burdens on me,

480

so that I can peacefully focus on my pregnancy.

481

Who is your choice then to manage the inner palace?

482

I feel that Consort Chun does things in an appropriate manner and is very thorough.

483

Consort Xian has noble character and is admired by the six palaces.

484

If the two will work together, they surely can manage the inner palace in good order.

485

Let His Majesty have no unnecessary worries.

486

I also admire the people that you recommended.

487

Starting today, you two must work together to manage the affairs.

488

Don't disappoint the trust of the Empress.

489

I surely will do my best to unburden the Empress.

490

- Rise.

- Yes.

491

Today is a family banquet, so no need for formalities.

492

Everyone, please take your seat.

493

Yes.

494

This chrysanthemum wine is refreshing and sweet, beneficial for the liver and eyes.

495

His Majesty even especially ordered the Imperial Kitchen

496

to use the remaining black chrysanthemums last year to make wine.

497

Empress, quickly taste it. See if there's any difference between this wine and that one before.

498

It seems to be more bitter.

499

Empress Dowager, in this chrysanthemum wine,

500

there is angelica, foxglove, and wolfberry.

501

It can help lengthen one's lifespan.

502

Consort Chun is indeed well-versed in medicines.

503

Just lightly smelling it and I'm unable to hide anything from you.

504

Wine can cure hundreds of illnesses, chrysanthemum can hinder aging.

505

Your Highness the Empress, why are you not drinking?

506

Your Highness the Noble Consort, Her Highness the Empress is currently pregnant.

507

Chrysanthemum wine is a bit cold and isn't appropriate for her to take in.

508

I've already prepared a warm milk tea for Her Highness.

509

So that's the case. I didn't make thorough considerations.

510

May Your Highness the Empress forgive me.

511

It's exactly because I considered your health,

512

so I ordered the Imperial Kitchen to prepare a hot pot,

513

remove the crabs, and serve some deer meat.

514

Don't drink the wine anymore.

515

Drink some hot soup to warm your body.

516

I thank the Empress Dowager for understanding.

517

Is everything prepared?

518

Noble Lady, don't worry. Everything has been adequately prepared.

519

Your Highness.

520

Although deer blood is very nutritious,

521

it increases circulation. Her Highness mustn't eat it in her current condition.

522

Quickly remove it!

523

Can't you see? Quickly take it away!

524

Yes... I will remove it right away.

525

I was wrong! I was wrong! May Your Highness the Empress Dowager forgive me!

526

Is that how you do things? Quickly clean that up!

527

Yes! Yes!

528

The raw meat scent is too strong.
