Why is this so violent?

What kind of story did I travel into this time?

At this time, shouldn't there be a hero to save the damsel?

Princess, don't be afraid. I, your subordinate, will protect you.

Why is it you?

Chase after her!

[Episode 5]

Hope needs to be fought for by ourselves. [Previously]

This is our first step to reclaiming our home.

Welcome to the Ai Qin Hai Food Truck.

You won't be at a loss from this agreement, after completing the mission,

you can enter into the Long Xiang Auction House of your dreams.

Yan Sui?

At the critical moment, Second Prince of the Northern Zhao Kingdom, Yan Xiu,

appeared just in time to save Princess Nian.

It was good that Yan Xiu was unrivaled in martial arts.

After locking in on the assassin, he was able to pierce his side.

The assassin swiftly moved behind Yan Xiu. Yan Xiu did not turn his head, rather

with his backhand, he blocks the attack beautifully. The assassin draws back a few steps

with his allies together pointing their weapons at Yan Xiu.

Yan Xiu, sees through all the attacks.

Princess Nian looks over at Yan Xiu's calming movements,

and let out a breath.

Her eyes hold trust and dependence.

There are only two days left.

The space travel deadline will be up.

Wait! What is this?

Crisis averted,

Yan Xiu escorts the princess onto the carriage and returns to the palace.

Within his gaze, it holds

some unexplainable affection.

Affection?

Qian Qian, does Young Master's role

have a love interest?

Did Wan Wan not come?

Your leg has been injured.

No, no, I can still walk.

- Does it hurt? - No need.

Young Master, the city ahead has an inn.

Greetings, Princess.

Xiao Mi?

Mi Yanqiao, get lost!

His name this time is Mi Yanqiao?

He is so different from Xiao Mi.

A different role in a different story.

Just the faces you see are similar.

Didn't we agree for you to wait for me to return?

No, I didn't touch that lamp.

You didn't touch that lamp?

What did he just call me?

Princess?

Tasker, please familiarize yourself with your character profile.

That Prince is so handsome counterattack mission.

Mission Player: Mu Xiaoru.

Character: Nian Ruolan

Age: 24

Identity: Princess of the Song Kingdom.

Father: General Nian

Husband: Prince of Cang.

Character Trait: traditional and straightforward

Skills: None

Mission Target: please read the following role description.

[Role Description]

I am the first daughter of the powerful Nian family.

Born to be the prince's bride.

I would often advise the prince's livelihood.

My Prince, drinking is harmful to the body.

Most of the time, the prince

wouldn't listen at all.

Presumptuous!

Because of my temper,

the prince would be cold to me.

All the other consorts

tend to stay away from me as well.

Even the Dowager Mother that used to spoil me,

is extremely disappointed.

Why?

Why is that what I do for the palace and the prince

has brought me to this state?

One day, I was returning from travels away from the palace.

I encountered an assassin and nearly died.

Why?

Why is my fate so unfortunate?

Why?

This princess, her obsession is too deep.

To her, the prince's manor is her everything.

It is understandable that she doesn't feel content.

Are you ready?

[Cang Manor]

What's the mission? Why didn't I receive a mission?

My mission has not been revealed, either.

You also have a mission?

This time, this novel has a double-line story.

It is more difficult than before.

Then your character identity is...?

Second Prince of the Northern Zhao Kingdom, Yan Xiu.

I came here to the Song Kingdom, to visit his aunt.

I got caught in the battle.

So, what should I do?

Keep a low profile.

Mistress!

Mistress! Are you all right?

Ruolan, are you hurt?

It's good you are back.

It's good that you are back.

A prince was requested to receive his own cousin,

but when in danger does not know to save his cousin and wife,

then brings me the consort.

Madam Tai, you have mistaken the prince's intention.

Don't I have to...

Actually, Prince had already ordered someone to protect the princess.

Mother, if it wasn't for Ying'er being a quick thinker,

- the one that could have been hurt would have been your son. - Who is Ying'er?

I have heard that Consort Lan is the one who helps Prince Cang with internal matters.

Today, you have saved them again.

Yan Xiu, greets aunt.

Yan Xiu, my nephew, were you hurt?

I am all right, but the princess

has a few minor injuries.

Minor injuries, where?

I don't...

When I... was chased by the assassin,

I twisted my ankle.

Here, call the physician.

Sister, are you hurt?

Call the physician. Make him hurry.

Princess, are you all right?

Yao Yao, Su Su, Xiao Ra?

Why are you guys here?

Princess, who are you talking about?

Mistress, this is Madam Yang, Madam Yun, and Madam An.

Have you forgotten?

Quickly, take the princess back inside to rest.

And make sure to have the physician check her.

Mistress! Mistress!

Mistress!

Mistress, be careful.

Is this how a princess lives?

Wow.

This material.

The life of the princess is so nice.

Try this on.

Thanks.

That... What is your name?

- I hit my head and my memory... - Mistress.

Did you even forget me, Wan Wan?

Wan Wan? Of course, I remember.

It's just that... these makeup products in my room?

Rouge and powder.

Yes. Yes. Yes. Rouge and powder.

Why is it only these two pieces?

But there are quite a few clothes.

Mistress, you specifically told us

that the princess does not rely on seduction to please men like the consorts?

You hurt your head too severely.

I will go get the physician. This cannot wait any longer.

Not to rely on seduction to please men.

A daughter of a general? Well, she's quite an independent lady.

This time, thanks to nephew Yan Xiu's assistance.

Otherwise, if Ruolan was missing an arm or leg,

how would you explain it to General Nian?

My birthday banquet is coming and the princess encountered an attack.

This birthday banquet...

Mother, a few days ago, Princess Nian's body was weak.

Thanks to Ying'er taking charge, no matter how big or small, it becomes perfection.

That is why your son has entrusted the banquet preparations to Ying'er.

I will definitely plan the banquet adequately so as not to lose face for Dowager Mother.

And request Dowager Mother, not to blame the prince.

When have I blamed the prince?

But all of you are desperately trying to play the victim.

Have we neglected you in the palace?

I don't care if you like her,

I hate those who make this household hard to breathe in.

I have to properly manage them.

Dowager Mother is right, I know my wrongs.

The princess should be in charge of the birthday banquet.

If rumors get spread

that the prince neglects his princess and only favors his consort,

I can't afford to lose face.

Mother, Nian is straightforward.

She talks without thinking of the consequences.

If she manages the birthday banquet,

she may offend the officials, guests, and performance teams.

Then, how will I continue to govern this place?

I know that Ruolan is straightforward.

But...

But she is simple.

This Ruolan...

Forget it.

Let's just cancel the birthday banquet.

Dowager Mother's birthday banquet cannot be canceled.

We must celebrate Dowager Mother's birthday.

That Prince Is So kHandsome mission,

Nian Roulan's mission has been discovered: To successfully prepare the banquet

and maintain the princess title. Please confirm.

[Successfully prepare the banquet and maintain the princess title]

Mother, Ruolan wasn't sensible in the past.

I didn't take the responsibility of the princess well enough.

When Mother manages the household, everything is orderly.

The whole family admires you.

If you're willing to teach me,

I will study hard.

My child, you've caught on!

So long as you're willing to learn, I am happy to teach you.

Your earrings are really nice.

Are they new?

- Qie Shi, bring one for me next time. - Sure.

Quickly, think of a way to get me out of here.

That Princess Nian is coming to annoy me again.

Second Prince, Dowager Mother said that Northern Zhao has great performers.

I hope that you can assist us

and help me to prepare the banquet.

I, the nephew, am willing to render my assistance.

Then I'll head back.

Go ahead.

Yan Xiu,

what did you think of the assassination attempt this morning?

These assassins all had poison inside their mouths for a quick death.

My guard is one of the masters in Northern Zhao.

He couldn't even stop the assassins from killing themselves on the spot.

The mastermind behind the incident is quite influential.

I heard there was an assassin that was injured and escaped.

The prince's manor has also sent out guards to search the mountain.

That Prince Is So Handsome mission has been found.

The mission is:

To Find the assassin and protect Northern Zhao.

Please confirm.

[Find the assassin. Protect Northern Zhao. Please confirm.]

We'll do everything we can to find the assassin.

Brother Yan, I'll have to rely on you for the banquet preparation.

Nian is straightforward. Please bear with her.

Don't give her any chance to bother me.

I won't let you down, Prince.

We've been managing this place for some years now.

Moving away so suddenly like this,

will you feel unhappy?

With the Cloud Passing Bracelet, we'll really be going back this time.

Isn't it just a story to solve the case?

Isn't that a piece of cake for Young Master?

Wait... Isn't this a case-solving story?

Why is the art style going towards sweet and affectionate?

It is important to dress and behave well in a banquet.

These materials and fabrics

can represent our position and authority.

(I take you out for a walk.)

This one?

Is it pretty?

Miss, have a look at this.

Master, Small Dragon Pavilion is the largest rouge shop within the city and focuses on sending rouge and powder into the manors.

Right over there. Don't buy it here.

Why is there so much stuff?

Prince Yan bought it for you.

Why do I feel like... I'm relying on your money?

- How do you feel about it? - I feel...

I feel amazing.

I brought you out to get some fresh air. You can't be really treating this as a vacation, right?

I've finally become a princess. Let me play it well.

Besides, aren't I looking for inspiration for the banquet performance?

Investigate the opinions of the people.

Don't worry, the mission will be solved.

Anyway, you're not in a hurry.

Unless you are in a hurry?

Although time here doesn't pass in the same way it does in the real world,

if there is too long of a delay,

it will cause problems in the real world.

You're worried about this.

We're currently on holiday at school. I've already organized everything.

I'm in a hurry.

Why?

You won't tell me again. You're always like this, refusing to talk.

I don't care this time.

If you have no objections, I will follow my rhythm.

I'm not going to end this story that quickly.

I'm going.

She looks a little familiar.

Isn't that Consort Lan?

Is she here to buy cosmetics as well?

Well... how much do you know about the madam at the prince's manor?

You need helpers to prepare for the birthday banquet.

You want me to get along with the consorts?

Rest well, just wait and see.

Is it an easy task?

What?

Consort Lan, based on what you said,

you have prepared nothing this past half month?

Sister, the birthday banquet

is not a small task.

Pros and cons all need to be taken into consideration.

My status doesn't allow me to do anything.

Consort Yun.

Consort Yang.

Consort An?

Cheng Xing asks that the princess forgives us for our lack of ability.

Please forgive us for our lack of ability, Princess.

Why are you all kneeling here?

Don't lecture people all the time, Princess.

Manage the birthday banquet by yourself.

What do they have to do with this?

Get up.

Your Highness, it's not that we don't want to help the princess with the banquet.

- It's... - Your Highness! Your Highness, don't you think I've lost weight?

Your Highness, I've read some books recently.

Your Highness, that day you said you really liked the Huai Yang dish His Majesty gifted you.

I've learned a little these few days. Would you like to try it?

Really? Then that's perfect.

The Huai Yang dish and grape wine would be amazing.

What a coincidence. I've prepared grape wine.

Please come to my chamber later, Your Highness.

Your Highness, wine is bad for your health.

I know, can you stop--

Your Highness, the princess left a long time ago.

I get it.

We have to put on a good birthday banquet,

so as to maintain my status as the wife.

All these apparently trivial things

are actually all important, unavoidable matters.

It's not easy being the princess.

If I don't take down these women,

there won't be a way to fulfill this mission.

And so interpersonal relations

are the most important to allow for victory.

Forging relations is a good thing,

but you need to be careful.

The person who hurt you

may be hidden among them.

What did you find out?

You've made progress on your mission?

I have some direction now.

But you? It's a big change all of a sudden.

Be careful that you don't get caught.

Have I changed?

Your Highness, what are you thinking?

I think there has been something off recently.

But I don't know how to describe it.

Could it be... you are worried about governmental matters?

Not at all.

How do I say this...

Then it is because... you are worrying about the Dowager Mother's banquet.

Right. It's about Dowager Mother's banquet. I must keep an eye out.

Let's go and find the princess. We won't be going to Consort Lan's place.

I'm just going to take a look. Nian always easily offends people.

So troublesome.

So what is your task then?

That day, there were no suspicious people around the assassination path.

The prince's carriage passes through the backdoor to return to the manor.

The backdoor has had road construction these few days.

Aside from people from the manor, there will be no outsiders passing by.

I've observed the wheel grooves outside the door.

There are traces of a carriage stopping around the corner.

The black mud spots near the street exit should be dried bloodstains.

Aside from that, there's another point of suspicion.

Carriages from the prince's manor can only carry up to three people.

The wheel grooves won't be deeper than 3 cm.

However, this carriage's wheel grooves were deeper than 5 cm.

So, there is a high probability that someone from the prince's manor helped the assassin to safety.

Just remember that someone within the manor is trying to harm you.

Only masters can call on carriages,

so these consorts are the most suspicious.

You mean... it's one of them?

- Do you have proof? - I've already analyzed it.

I just think they all look like good people.

They only have the faces of your classmates.

Their personalities are different.

You don't understand them. Be cautious.

Who says I don't understand them? I've already analyzed them.

Those three have always been well-behaved.

Who would write "I'm a bad person" on their forehead?

Talk if you will, but don't use your hands!

I'm worried about your safety.

Whoever wants to be noticed by the prince has a high chance of harming you.

You're wrong.

I'm guessing that they're just trying to live peacefully.

- You can't rely on just guessing. You must confirm. - Okay.

Then I'll have us exchange heart-felt words.

How?

You want to gift what I gifted you to others, right?

You gifted it to me, so it's mine.

What? Trying to scare me?

I'm not scared of you.

I-I'm the princess!

You casually give away to others my gift to you.

- Should I buy you any gifts later? - You can buy gifts for me after I give them to others.

Plus, this is also for the mission.

Why do you care how I use it?

Prince.

How come you are spitting blood?

Prince, internal injuries.

Yan Xiu is also here.

Prince, I have also invited Second Prince over here to talk about the performances.

I am about to have tea with my sisters.

Why don't you have your conversation with Second Prince at my place?

I will leave first.

Come here, get the gifts for me.

Yes.

Yan Xiu, we have bothered you too much.

- Prince, you are too polite. - Yan Xiu, I have something to tell you.

Princess Wenying has already passed Yuli Pass. (T/N: This princess is the daughter of the crown prince)

Less than half a month, she will reach the city near the border.

Then, I will prepare a big gift.

Princess, you also prepare it for me.

The big gift.

We will attend Yan Xiu's wedding together.

Thank you, Prince.

Congratulations, Yan Xiu.

This is the mungbean cake from Nuoxiang.

I couldn't get it even standing in line.

It looks so tasty.

- Isn't it, Sister? - It smells so good.

- And this. - What is it?

Cosmetics from Xiaolong Pavilion.

Wow, look. This is the most popular

- red at the moment. - Let's look at this color.

This color matches you really well, Sister.

Does it look good on me?

I've got another one.

What do you have?

This music is good. Look.

- I cannot play the zither. - A toast to you, Prince.

Northern Zhao and Great Song have always had a good relationship.

Now, you are going to wed Princess Wenying.

It will strengthen the tie between the two nations.

We will flourish even more in the future.

Once the two nations are united, the menacing Xia Kingdom

will definitely be a little more afraid of us.

But talking of it, the Xia Kingdom has increased the price of the lamb a lot recently.

I have talked with...

What do you think? Do you like it?

If you like them, you can keep them all.

If you like them, they are all yours!

Thank you, Princess. It's just that...

we can't take them.

Is it because of Consort Lan?

Please forgive us, Your Highness. Consort Lan handles the household's affairs.

The three of us are not favored by His Highness.

So we have to be careful with our actions.

Consort Lan is acting boldly because His Highness favo—

But I'm not favored, just like you three.

You are the official wife. You're different from us.

Even if you become the main wife, you'd still be dependent on His Highness.

We have to start living our own lives properly.

Right now, I'm planning the birthday banquet. There's a lot of work involved.

So, I would like you all to help me.

Princess, helping you will put us in a difficult situation.

You've seen how His Highness favors Consort Lan.

All these years, he has never shown interest in us.

We don't have any expectations for the future.

We only see that one less trouble is better than one more trouble.

We wish to live the rest of our lives peacefully.

No more politics now, let's drink.

Here.

Yan Xiu.

Thank you for taking care of my wife recently. She has a straight personality.

I hope you will pardon any rudeness.

Being with the princess recently, even though she didn't say it,

she has already planned everything out and knows everything in her heart.

I can't bear to see you all so dejected.

If it means living a colorless and depressing life,

why not alter your way of living and start over again?

If you help me with this banquet, you'll also be helping yourselves.

Prince, you should focus on the well-being of the country.

I will oversee the preparation of Dowager Mother's banquet, as promised.

And to make sure everything is in order. You needn't worry, Your Highness.

My hope is for you all to start living for yourselves.

I still have some matters to attend to,

I'll take my leave first.

All my words, I speak from the heart.

I hope you'll consider them.

Prince, please abstain from drinking on an empty stomach. It is bad for you.

Xiaoru!

Are you... feeling better?

I didn't know about the marriage.

- I... - Consort Lan is acting strange.

Consort Lan?

I was on my way looking for you.

Then, I saw her on my way here,

with a person dressed in black.

Then, they disappeared.

We saw her outside the other day,

buying cosmetics. Although she didn't go to the usual store, Xiang Long Ge,

rather a shop called Hong Xiang Zhai.

It sounds like...

Consort Lan and Hong Xiang Zhai are both suspicious.

I will have Mei Yanqiao investigate this.

Why were you looking for me?

I...

I...

- I wanted to ask you— - Let's finish this mission quickly and leave, okay?

Okay.

I know what to do with the other consorts now.

When I have a plan ready, I will not waste your precious time.

This isn't about wasting time.

Then, what is it about?

It's—

Let's just finish this mission and leave,

before Yan Xiu gets married.

Whatever works.

Whatever you prefer.

I'll listen to you.

Princess!

Princess!

Princess, where are you?

Princess!

- Have you seen the princess? - No.

Consort Lan, I'm so glad I've found you.

His Highness needs you.

Consort Lan?

He is still young and will possibly make some mistakes.

As his vassals, it is our role to help advise him on delicate matters. Understood?

Understood.

Quick, my quick-acting heart-relief pills.

Why are you coughing blood again?
