Episode 14

So everything

was deliberately set up by you.

As I said,

how did I come to meet such a strange person?

Very good.

Fu Ya, our plans should end now.

You are now free.

I only want you to live.

No matter if you are

a cruel and cold-blooded devil,

I only want you to live.

I am tired, all these must end.

Qi You, Qi You, Qi You!

Qi You, Qi You, Qi You!

Wake up!

Older brother, please help, older brother!

Yun Zhu,

Pan Yu originally

followed the Eldest Prince and headed out of the city.

They were always on the same side.

Maybe they deliberately didn't want to return,

you don't need to be so impatient.

So you're saying it's deliberate?

Will they elope . . .

Don't say it this loud!

I really don't understand

how you managed to grow up in the Palace.

Why?

The First Prince always protected me

the first prnce was so good to me

he shared all his delicious food with me.

You only care about food.

Do you know how to do anything but eat?

What?

I always get hungry.

From the day when our family went into ruins

I was the only one lucky to escape all this,

but I ended up homeless.

If it wasn't for the Prince

who brought me back to the palace

and gave me food to eat,

perhaps earlier I would have died.

The Prince and Mei mei (little sister)

are like my biological family.

I had been wondering why my eyelids

were blinking non-stop.

Something bad must be happening.

Brother, promise me

you will look for them.

Look for them brother.

If you don't want to go

the Prince will die

and I can't continue living either.

Okay, okay.

Okay Okay, I will send a search party

that's all you want, right?

Oh my dear precious sweetheart . . .

You must find them.

Yun Zhu, who was that?

What's with you, you are crying?

That person is the head of the palace guards, Han Mi.

I want him to go look . . .

Look for what?

How come you can influence the head of the palace guards?

I'll tell you

I reckon he looks very handsome

and gives off an air of power . . .

Are you two not a pair?

You are a pair! You . . .

no we are not!!!

Me and him a pair?

No, we're not!

Ok ok ok, I understand

What you are meaning to say is

you like him.

Right?

Who said that?

I just like only the first Prince!

First Prince . . .

Hua Ye Ye.

The first Prince and my little sister

they haven't eloped, have they?

Don't speak nonsense.

I"m just asking!

Even asking is not okay.

I am telling you now, you can't say anything

that involves the two of them

you can't say a word

even to people you know well,

this includes

that head of the palace guard.

If you say a single word

you will send the both of them to death.

Do you know?

Why are you looking like this?

Don't tell me, you already blabbed about it.

You did, didn't you?

No I didn't, I didn't!

No you can't, you can't!

I didn't.

I'm just scared

that something happened to the Prince and mei'mei.

Okay okay-ah. Don't worry.

You have the skill, come here.

I'm not scared, come on, kill!

Qi You, wake up.

Qi You wake up.

Mother, Mother, I am You 'er, Mother

Why don't you want You 'er?

Why? Mother. . .

Qi You Qi You Wake up

Qi You Wake up.

You are finally up. Don't worry.

Tell me how much time do I have left?

Say it.

An hour.

It's enough.

I Meng Qi You, this is the end of this life.

To be together with the person I love the most

to exist together and to guard our sincerity together.

All that I ask is that

you must continue living.

Must continue living for me.

Don't leave me.

You said that together we would

face our problems.

Don't leave me to be alone.

This is an anti-poison pill.

Don't be afraid, you will not die.

I will save you.

What did you give me to take?

I can't move at all.

I can't move.

What are you doing?

What do you want to do? Fu Ya . . .

Master and the medical books said

this poison has no cure.

Because they don't know

the world has a doctor

who is willing to sacrifice her own life

to save the patient.

No, don't Fu Ya . . .

Don't do this, don't don't.

Don't be mad, Qi You.

This is the very last time

that I don't listen to you.

I greatly regret . . .

I regret

that before I didn't treat you well at all

and always fought with you.

But I'm also very happy

because in the end

I can still save you.

No No No No No

Qi You,

promise me

you'll continue living well.

Live life a little happier

I don't want you to be sad again.

Help me find back my little brother and

avenge my father emperor . . .

Fu Ya, Fu Ya NO!!!

Fu Ya . . .

Fu Ya . . .

Fu Ya . . .

Emperor please issue an Imperial decree immediately.

Send more men

to search and come back with maiden Pan Yu.

Yes, your majesty

It's this late Pan Yu has not returned to the Gong Palace.

Definitely met with a mishap.

I ask that your majesty dispatch more troops to look for her okay?

The matter should not be delayed.

Strange.

You two are always

agreeing with the appearance of unity, but are divided at heart,

opposing each other with equal harshness.

What is this about?

Just for one little maiden

to actually become as close as sisters

having similar energy to connect with each other.

As I am in charge of the various sectors of the palace,

the palace family was plundered by a scoundrel.

How can I ignore this?

Furthermore, human life is beyond value.

We should not easily give up.

Empress indeed comes from a great family.

Your spoken words are full of exquisite wording like gems.

To permit people to refute not.

Trust not.

As the saying goes to adhere to the principles of truth and right is to be sincere from within and the outside.

Heart's honesty

is most important.

Not like some people

only can use mouth to scold.

How about oneself ...what way is kindhearted

If to permit, Buddha understands.

Also can place blame.

Nevertheless my Yu He can speak.

Yu He

You and Pan Yu are neither relative or kin

you saved her.

Are you sincere from inside and outside?

Your Majesty, there is no need to joke with Yu He.

Pan Yu is a miracle worker.

If not for her miraculous hands and kind heart

I'm afraid I . . .

would have been harmed by others

and died of poisoning.

Now that my benefector is in trouble

how can I not be.

I am worried as if burned.

My beloved Imperial concubine is so conscientous.

And Imperial Empress, what about you?

You want to save Pan Yu

as a display of conscience also?

I answer your Majesty,

I want to save Pan Yu

not because of my conscientiousness

but because of selfish reasons.

When I speak before Your Majesty

my speech have always been direct.

Not like some people

who hide evil agendas through honeyed words

and make oblique accusations.

I want to save Pan Yu

is because Pan Yu

is Xing-er's chosen Royal consort-to-be.

Didn't Xing-er choose

your niece, Du Wan,

to be the Royal consort-to-be?

For a matter as important as marriage,

I have followed Xing-er's wish

for his own choice.

Xing-er's feelings for this lady

is very deep.

If something bad happens to Pan Yu

If something bad happens to Pan Yu,

how can I, as his mother

have peace of mind.

The Empress is indeed a loving mother.

However, Qi You is also missing

is the Empress not concern about that?

Emperor, you don't need to ask any more

or is that you haven't heard what

Empress sister just said?

She only has selfish reasons

and no conscience.

How pitiable are those on earth who are parents.

Yes, I really have a hard life

producing two heirs for the Emperor

and still blamed for not having a conscience.

Unlike little sister here who lead a good life

without sons to enter the line of succession.

Not giving the Emperor an heir to perform the birth ritual for.

So of course, compared to me, you've less to worry about.

Elder sister indeed has dearly loved the Crown Prince

but don't forget

First prince is also your son.

When has it become your business

to meddle into my family affairs.

Go birth a son and mind him.

You!

Qi You has always been well versed martial arts

how can there be any mishaps.

The most important thing now

is to quickly find Pan Yu.

Please, your majesty

dispatch Imperial troops to aid in the search.

Empress,

the Imperial guards and protectors are the

military force specifically based to protect the palace.

How can I mobilise them on a search just on your wishes?

But...

Emperor.

Reporting to the Emperor,

without your Imperial order, commander Han has

secretly mobilised the Imperial guards out of the

palace grounds to search for the missing persons.

Emperor,

Han Ming definitely must have...

An insignificant maiden,

with so many people who are concerned about her well-being.

I must meet this person later.

Otherwise, I'll remain unknowing

of where exactly she's so sacred.

Emp...

Qi You, did we both die?

Yes, we are both dead.

We are souls without masters.

You lied to me, we are both alive.

This is really great.

I did not lie to you.

We both had died once

but now, we are both alive again.

This place is...?

This is a pity bequeathed from the Heavens.

The blood and sweat I had expended a few years ago

never went to waste in the end.

You hid the Dragon Saliva pill here?

Can't imagine

this life saving medicine

eventually save

the person I loved most.

What are you smiling at?

Someone,

has finally admitted

I am the person he loves the most.

Before

in order to be the crown prince, I've cause you harm.

Sorry.

There's no need to say things which put a divide between us.

To be able to be together

with everyone still alive

is already enough.

That's not right.

You were severely poisoned

how did you get the strength to bring me here.

Also, I was also severely poisoned.

There is no way

I can last till now.

Therefore, one can say

it's because you're a good person, you get rewarded

did you forget?

You'd ever rescued

Zhou dynasty's Emperor, Chai Rong's adopted brother?

Chai Rong's adopted brother?

At the time you were in a state of unconsciouness.

I remembered

this Dragon Saliva pill that could perhaps save you.

I was focused on carrying you throughout the journey.

It was him who ordered the military doctor

to first administer drugs to buy you more time.

He especially spent the night hurrynig and protecting us

so that we can get to Xiang Shi Lake.

What's his name?

Zhao Kuang Yin.

Zhao Kuang Yin?

I'm not familiar with anyone named Zhao Kuang Yin.

He said to me

if I bring up his name as Little Kuon, Xiao Kuon Zhi

then you will recall.

Xiao Kuon Zhi

Kuon Zhi Younger Brother, oh where is he now?

He has unfinished business in army

he couldn't stay till you woke up

and he had to leave.

When he left

he was a young boy still.

And now the young boy has transformed into this amazing general.

And he also recommended to me

if

you ever get into trouble

you can go to the Zhou Guo (Country of Zhou) to ask for his help.

He will always lend a hand.

What a young general

he must be admired.

No matter how admirbale he has become

you remain as his older sister.

He still need to call me as his jie fu (older sister's husband).

What jie fu?

I am his jie fu.

You are taking advantage of me.

Heaven above,

worshipper Su Yao's adopted sister, Pan Yu,

went missing a day ago from the hunting ground in the West

and is yet to return.

If sister Yu could be blessed with

Heavenly father's pity and return safely.

Su Yao will be willing to devote myself to vegetarianism,

as thanks to the Heavens.

Little sister Yu must

come back safely.

Pan Yu

how do you know will come back.

Little sister Yu returned?

Where is she?

Why haven't I seen her?

You asking me?

I haven't seen her either.

It's not like I have a third eye.

The ghost of Pan Yu,

how would I have the means to see?

You can ask me, I have the gift of a third eye.

I can

see sister Pan's ghost

eating the sacrificial offerings you've laid out for her.

Nonsense!

Who's speaking nonsense?

Look look

Shouldn't we

allow her to eat some more?

Lest on her journey to the netherworld

after this meal,

there won't be another to follow.

Sister, could you tell us if Pan Yu

has any words to Su Yao

she'd like to impart?

She's saying, sister Yao

how about burning plenty of paper money to me?

So that I may find an appropriate suitor in the underworld

and not let our

deep sisterhood be in vain.

You're all crossing the line!

Little sister Yu will definitely return

She will definitely return safely!

If she returns safely then

we won't be safe.

That damned-vixen

seduces men everywhere.

The Crown Prince is young and naive.

Now even second prince too.

I also what?

Greetings second prince.

Second Prince Little sister Yu, she . . .

She will be fine.

Come, together we will

pray to God to bless her with good fortune.

It's so beautiful here.

With you accompanying me no matter where,

even on the road to the netherworld,

the scenery would be just as beautiful.

You musn't speak of whatever road to the netherworld.

The rest of our life together

still has a long way to go.

Yes, there's still a long way to go.In this world,

there is finally someone

who treats me with a sincere heart.

So how could I not appreciate this?

I truly wish we could stay and spend life here,

no longer having to compete with the rest of the world.

As long as you are willing

I'm ready to

to remain with you right in this place.

I'll no longer be any Prince

and you'll longer be any Princess.

We'll spend the rest of our days as common people.

We'll never again have to encounter those people who plot and scheme.

Alright?

Us two will raise a whole group of babies.

Let's also farm chickens and ducks,

how good would that be?

Having a few children,

farming some chickens and ducks.

This kind of life sounds wonderful.

But too bad we cannot, just like that,

dubiously turn our backs on our homelands.

At the very least we need to explain ourselves to Qi Xing.

Otherwise, we'll never be able to apologise enough to him.

The one who owes him an apology should be me.

It's only because of me that

we're caught in this predicament.

Right, we should return

but you have to promise me two things

the first thing is

regarding your Imperial Father's revenge

this situation

is your problem and is also my problem.

I'll shoulder this burden for you.

But . . .

There is no "but"

The second thing is

after we return to the Palace

we will explain to Qi Xing together.

Afterwards, you can leave the palace

and I will stay behind and do the rest.

Can you do it by yourself?

What's the matter? Don't you believe in me?

Believe

It's just having to leave this Xiang Si lake.

I really can't bear to go.

Indeed,

it's too beautiful here

but also too uncommon.

Oh right, once we have reinstated your Kingdom

we'll definitely be ordinary people

living peaceful

and moreover happy lives.

Alright?

I believe we can definitely

do it.

Crown Prince,

we have waited three days three nights . . .

You want... Don't you meddle

I want to wait here

for sister Yu to come back

Quick! Look!

Is that not our lady?

And also the first Prince.

Look!! Where... Where...

Sister Yu... Sister Yu...

Ya-Ya!

1st Prince!!

Quick, quick, lets go down.

Ya Ya Ye Ye

You'd caused us much anxiety.

Little Sister, what you don't know,

during the days that you were missing

I forgot to drink and to eat meals!

I only ate a mere three meals a day.

Sister Yu

What actually happened?

I accidentally fell into a valley

fortunately, 1st Prince saved me.

Otherwise, forget saying that I'd be able to return.

Perhaps that valley would've long since been my final resting place.

It looks like we must express our gratitude to big brother.

Eh, this cat with nine lives

has come back alive.

That's right.

The Empress and Han Zhao Yi

even hold her at such high esteem.

Gift her with so many things.

Feeding a pig wouldn't even need that many things.

Hey, why don't we go take a look

Maybe we'll get some of it.

You all go and get your share.

But be careful you're not getting a share of poison.

Good point.

These two concubines,

who knows what's peace of mind to them.

I say it's probably best if we don't go.

So much food

how can I finish it by myself.

You are not by yourself

there's still me and I can finish them all by myself.

Yo! You still want to eat?

Aren't you afraid of being poisoned to death.

I was afaid before

but I'm not afraid now

Afterall, there's Hua Ye Ye's internal energy

and little sister's medical skill.

Even with extra arsenic,

I won't be afraid.

Complete nonsense, what arsenic?

This is Niang Niang's

special awardment of the highest quality tonic.

Miss, perhaps you could eat it quickly

so that I may

hurry back and report to the Empress.

Agree, Han Niang Niang

is also waiting your servant's return and report.

These...

OK, OK

You both just say Lady Pan

has finish all the food.

Both of you are dismissed... dismissed

Leave...

Yes.

Quickly!

Sister Yun

We can discuss our matters now, right?

What matter?

Our marriage...

This... this is a bit rush.

You . . .

Don't you have to discuss with your older brother?

Don't you have to discuss with your older brother?

What has this matter to do with older brother?

It's fine for us to make the decisions ourselves.

Sister Yun

Why is it whenever the subject of the wedding comes up

you seem to be delaying.

What are you afraid of?

Please clarify with me.

I'm afraid you will regret.

I'm not suited to you.

I'm afraid you love the wrong person.

Oh, it's because of this...

Sister Yu, Sister Yu, don't worry

In this life, other than you

I will not love another person.

So how can I love the wrong person?

This is not what I meant.

Then, what's your meaning?

Ok, Ok

Crown Prince

prior to our family mistress' marriage,

her feelings are bound to be not free of anxiety.

It's as if she was a little rabbit

unavoidably worried and scared.

These kinds of feelings

you guys won't understand.

Then how come you can understand?

Have you marry (as a female) before?

I marry..

Die, die... you see you...

Crown Prince

You really know how to blurt out someone's weaknesses.

Actually you're right

marriage affairs should be arranged by someone

big brother always treats me the best,

I'll go discuss it with him now.

Don't go!

You're the one who wanted me to go.

You're also the one who doesn't want me to go.

You tell me if I should go or not.

Your big brother just returned

he must be exhausted.

Let him rest.

Yeah.

Big brother has just come home

but also no one asked him whether he is alright.

I should go check on him for a bit.

Crown Prince

Is Yu mei mei alright?

She's fine.

I think there is something but you don't want to say.

What did you say?

Brother Xing,

luckily I am also your cousin.

Even if I never get the chance to be Royal consort

I still do not hope to see

brother Xing be played by others.

Put on the green hat and be the frog (watch your wife cheat on you)

What falsities are you spouting?!

Where is it false?

What is it? She can do it but I can't speak of it?

A man and woman alone in the wilderness for three days and three nights,

could nothing really have happened?

Fine, even if there is nothing

can you stop everyone's opinion?

If you marry this kind of

woman with a bad reputation,

your prestige as Crown Prince will be...

Enough! Let me tell you

and the rest of you all listen up.

From now on, whoever dares again to speak ill of sister Yu...

I will have your head chopped off!

Crown Prince is really upset

It's good that he is angry.

If he really is angry, then what I just said

has set into his mind.

Wow Wan Jie Jie you are so insidious.

What are you saying?

No no I'm saying you're so resourceful

Resourceful

Big Brother

Brother, why have you come?

I came to thank you, Big Brother

for helping take care of Yu Jie Jie.

Fine, actually, it's good that you came

Big Brother has something to talk to you about.

It has to do with Yu Jie Jie

Big brother is thinking the same thing as me

I, also, have something to discuss with Big Brother.

It, also, has to do with Yu Jie Jie.

Those women are saying that

when Big Brother was with Yu Jie Jie

for three days and three nights

you are both single man and woman.

They also said . . .

Do you believe it?

I don't believe. I just believe Big Brother

Regardless of what others say

your Yu Jie Jie and I

treated each other with due respect all along.

We absolutely did not act in any improper way.

However...

Enough!

Hearing big brother say this is enough.

I believe big brother

Although I believe big brother,

people still talk.

For Big brother and Yu Jie Jie's dignity

in the future, you two should meet less.

Both you and I can't find a good time to talk to him.

But if we don't explain this properly

it will complicate further.

I understand

But this time we left together

and return together.

He's easily influenced by others.

And there's a growing seed of doubt in his heart.

If we honestly tell him

we can't get through to him

it would only hurt him more.

Then...what do we do?

Leave, you leave.

Leave.

Correct.

We don't know how long we can continue delaying this.

Right now all you can do is burn the bridges and keep moving forward.

Cut yourself free from this mess,

so as to avoid losing sleep over it.

Then what about you?

I will continue to stay in the palace

and deal with this.

Fu Ya, either way

I cannot let you suffer anymore.

Wait until all this is over

I will eventually return to your side.

This is a good solution.

Meng Qi You has not been killed

how can you still have the dignity to face me?

Impossible

.The poison I used cannot be cured by anyone

First Prince returned to the Palace safely.

What more can you say?

What's that suppose to mean?

A job not done doesn't need payment.

We are only partners.

In this world, no one is worthy of being my master.

Who is the one who cured this poison?

I will go investigate this myself.

Niang Niang we found the person you were looking for.

Where are they?

Come in

Your highness

This is...

My senior classmate,

The previous Chu Kingdom's general Yi Bing.

Don't worry.

Since you are my brother's senior

you won't be turned awayif you're seeking asylum.

I will do my best to help youfind employment at this palace.

You absolutely won't be mistreated.

Thank you your highness

However, this servant of an exiled Kingdom

isn't here to seek food and clothing

but rather I have a different matter to request.

If your Highness were able to ensure this person's safety,

Yi Bing would forever be at your service

however you see fit to order around.

Who is this person who is so important?

Yun Zhu, after we're gone,

you have to be more careful, don't eat too much

if you are poisoned no one can save you.

I'm not afraid

but I would rather be poisoned everyday

then never see Mei Mei again.

Don't be like this, if you are like this than how can we

leave peacefully?

That's right

Alright

if don't leave now, we'll be discovered.

Don't cry anymore.

Young lady, leaving without saying goodbye?How heartless.

So early in the morning

where are you rushing off too?

Today is Pan Yu's mother's death anniversary

she wanted to leave early to pray at the temple.

First Prince is unafraid of rumors and slanders.

With your future sister-in-law, so early in the morning,

to help attend to her.

The brotherly love

you show Qi Xing

makes me feel truly touched.

Niang niang

it was me who suddenly wanted to leave the palace

so I asked the first prince to accompany me.

So please excuse Pan Yu

Please get up quickly miss.

The last generation of the exiled Chu Kingdomare completely lacking in principles.

But I don't blame young ladyfor not forgetting your dead relatives.

Pan Yu does not understand

what Niang Niang is saying

It doesn't matter what disguise a phoenix is wearing,

it won't become a convincing chicken.

Isn't that right Princess Fu Ya.

Very surprising, isn't it?

Don't think that just because I stay in the inner palace

that I don't know what's going on.

Even the deepest secrets

I can dig up.

Did you arrange for people by my side

First Prince, you were dismissed a long time ago.

Why would I use so much effort to deal with you?

What exactly do you want to do?

Let the guest stay.

I wasn't a guest in the first place

I am free to come and go as I please.

Niang Niang needn't waste her effort on me

Princess has all along suffered the pain of missing your relatives.

I've helped you find an old friendbut now you want to leave?

Old friend? Who are you referring to?

Fu Ya . . .

Mother, mother!

Mother, mother

Mother, you didn't die.

I finally found you.

Mother, I missed you so much

I thought I would never see you again.

If it wasn't for restoring the kingdom

I would've long went to look for you and father.

Daughter

If mother really died

you still musn't commit suicide.

If you really came to the nether world to find me,

I would consider you unfilial.

Thank goodness, mother is fine.

I didn't do anything stupid.

Mother

That day

I clearly saw you lying in the fire

how did you escape?

Originally, I too believed I'd lose my life in the fire.

But who would have thought, the world works in strange ways.

Niang'niang Niang'niang Niang'niang

Niang'niang

Come, let's go!

So it was General Yi who saved mother.

General Yi saved me in time

so I can live to this day.

Afterwards, Ma Yi Fang issued a load of warrants

everywhere, demanding your arrest.

Which is how I knew

that you had managed to flee from our palace.

At that time, I wanted to go search for you

and my real identity was nearly exposed.

if it wasn't for General Yi

who always protected me

us mother and daughter

would never be able to meet.

Commander Yi is whole-hearted loyal.

Please accept Fu Ya's bow.

Princess, that's impermissible.

Yi Bing can't accept such an honor.

Commander Yi,

let Fu Ya kowtow to youChu Kingdom owes you this.

Your Highness, please save such words.

They terrify me.

Get up quickly.

Then general Yi,

where did you keep my mother all this time?
