Be patient

and listen to me.

All this begins with the origin of Miss Jun.

You only know that Miss Jun

is the granddaughter of the Fang family.

But do you know

her family

has practiced medicine for generations and inherited medical skills

for several hundred years?

Her father,

Jun Yingwen

was a famous doctor in Runan.

She is Jun Jiuling,

the highly skilled doctor

who learnt the medical skills at home

and took over her family business!

Miss Jun is a highly skilled doctor.

How can a girl

become a highly skilled doctor?

Yes.

Yes.

Your story

is far off the mark.

Miss Jun wanted to

take over her family business

and reopen Jiuling Drugstore in Runan.

After hearing the misfortunes of the Fang family,

killings of her grandpa and uncle

and her dying cousin,

she was determined

to help the Fang family through the crisis

and think out a wonderful plan.

Miss Jun

detoxified and cured

Young Master Fang

under the guise

of marriage.

To find out the plotter behind

Li Changhong,

Miss Jun even

risked her life.

With the sick and weak

and the old and disabled,

she returned to Runan

after a long and arduous journey.

She met ambushes,

broke through traps

and stumbled through

various dangers.

She revealed

the big case that Li Changhong and officers and soldiers

had been in collusion for over 10 years.

She broke off

an engagement and thought out a wonderful plan

under the guise of marriage.

The highly skilled

doctor Miss Jun didn't return overnight to help her grandma,

a royal businesswoman, turn the table by a written instruction.

I'm not good at storytelling.

This is a story fabricated by storytellers.

Good.

It must

have been fabricated by the Fangs.

You don't know.

The storytellers in the whole city

like to tell the story that

the highly skilled doctor Miss Jun

saved the Fang family from danger, fought with bad guys

and treated the sick people most,

followed by the story that Great-grandpa Fang

obtained the imperial decree

of establishing Deshengchang.

I'm not good at storytelling.

I'll take you to a teahouse tomorrow

and you can listen there.

Zan,

we've almost finished

our investigation in Zezhou.

Where will we go?

Go back to the capital city.

Don't forget

how we escaped from the capture of the men of Arm Moral Department.

If we go back to the capital city now, we'll be caught.

If we don't go and ask for punishment,

how can I dispel Chu Rang's suspicion of me?

And

I have something more important to do.

I know what you want to do.

Go on.

Uphold justice for the late emperor and princess,

right?

Have your meal.

After that, go to bed early.

We'll go back to the capital city tomorrow.

Your Excellency,

our men chased her the whole night,

but she still escaped.

She went to the capital city.

The capital city?

Yes.

If she knows who we are,

she won't escape

to the capital city

and fall into our snare.

Your Excellency,

our men have entered the city.

Do we

strike the Fangs now?

Their daughter-in-law

didn't go home the whole night.

A girl

served water and food in the inn.

She's

kicking up a cloud of dust.

Leave it alone.

Let's first go back to the capital city

and report to His Majesty.

Yes.

Jun.

Chengyu,

where is Jun?

She left a letter to you.

Ling Jiu,

thank you for helping me

find out the plotter behind who framed up the Fang family.

To keep my word,

I'll figure out the secret of Zezhou

and tell you all about it.

I learnt from my grandma

the official funds in the third year of the Taiyan period

had really been

secretly handed over

by Chu Rang to the Fang family

as their start-up funds

to support Chu Rang.

Now

only my grandma knows this past event in the whole family.

The Fang family has been taught a lesson

because of their mistakes.

The rest are innocent.

You promised me to let the Fang family go.

Please keep your promise.

Don't baffle them

at any time.

See you,

Ling Jiu.

I don't know when we'll meet next time.

Take care.

Dispel the grief of losing the dead

as soon as possible

and look forward to your future life.

Jun Jiuling.

You don't need me,

so you abandon me,

with only a letter left.

Where did she go?

She left.

She only said that

she had some private things to deal with.

I also don't know

where she went.

Do you

like her?

Do you actually like her?

Jun,

you haven't answered my question.

Why did you leave?

Leave it alone.

I'll go back to the capital city first.

It turns out that

I have so many memories in Zezhou.

I have a new family.

I found out the secret of Zezhou

and met Zhu Zan,

but

I still had to say goodbye to him.

I go back to the capital city

to find the way in my heart this time.

Even if it is extremely dangerous,

as long as I survive,

I will firmly go on.

Jiuli,

Jiurong,

I'll go back to the capital city to protect you.

Chen's sugar figurines.

Sir.

Would you like a sugar figurine?

OK.

Five coins per one.

Here you are.

Chen's sugar figurines.

The specialty of Zezhou,

Chen's sugar figurines.

Yes, yes, yes.

Chen's sugar figurines.

Unexpectedly,

Madame Su of the Fang family

is so cruel.

Yes.

She has a daughter.

Does she?

How can Miss Fang

-continue her life? -The specialty of Zezhou.

How, indeed?

She must feel terribly ashamed.

Is the woman

surnamed Su in collusion

with Shopkeeper Song…

Yes.

She is just my mom.

What a nuisance.

Miss Fang,

have a sugar figurine.

You'll feel better

after having it.

No need.

Try it.

No need.

Try it, please.

No need.

My sugar figurine…

Only several coins.

I pay you.

Sorry.

I don't have any money with me.

But I'll keep it in my mind

and pay you next time.

It doesn't matter.

I can make them.

Never mind.

Were you driven out by the Fangs?

Good.

You're free.

I wasn't driven out.

I just want to leave there.

Where will you go?

It's none of your business.

Not exactly.

Fate makes us

meet here.

I think

you were like my long-lost friend at our first meeting.

I'll treat you

to a meal today,

OK?

The fried boiled pork ahead

is very delicious.

Would you like to taste it?

Let's go,

Miss Fang.

Go.

Come on.

Miss Fang,

quickly.

Your Ladyship, look.

Here we are.

Let me support you.

Was my father killed by you?

Yes.

What do you want to do?

Chu Rang,

I'll regain everything you seized from my father

and put the matter in the right light.

The capital city,

I'm back.

Your Ladyship,

where will we first go after entering the city?

The Map of Capital City is very detailed.

Where do you want to go?

Can we first

find something to eat?

We ate solid food all the way,

and my teeth can't bear.

OK.

Well then, let's go here.

OK.

Let's go.

Here we are, Miss Fang.

This restaurant.

Please.

Let me tell you.

Like my sugar figurines,

the fried boiled pork of this restaurant

is also a specialty

of Zezhou.

You'll know after having it.

Boss,

I want

a bowl of fried boiled pork.

OK.

I just began my business

and sold several sugar figurines today.

Let's just order one bowl of pork.

Don't refuse.

We

both know

each other well.

As friends,

it's common for us

to sit and have a meal.

Don't shed tears

over the changes of seasons.

And don't mention my kindness,

repayment to me or the like.

Without doubt,

I'm not sympathizing with you.

Don't sympathize with me.

I just think

you, alone,

have a hard time.

Fortunately, you meet me today.

I have nothing to say

and I don't think as much as you said.

Just shut up, will you?

Here comes your dish.

It's hot.

OK.

Thank you, boss.

Be free.

Have a taste.

Don't bother.

I ate.

You said you're hungry.

Then I'll eat.

Where do you

stay now?

I stay in an inn.

It's good

to stay there,

but it costs a lot.

I don't think

it's a good place to stay in the long run.

To survive here,

you still need to make a living by some craft.

I have a good idea.

Why not learn to make sugar figurines from me?

Let's go over there.

Yunzhao,

we've devoted ourselves to preparing for the exam

in the capital city for a long time.

We rarely have time to go out and have tea.

Stop reading, OK?

Taste it.

It's good tea.

Young Master.

Young Master,

your letter.

From whom?

Sorry,

Wenming.

Forgive me for leaving for a while.

Go ahead.

Miss,

buy one.

Your Ladyship,

look.

It's so nice.

Your Ladyship,

look at this.

Do you think I don't even know the time of day?

No.

Do anything you like

and buy anything you want.

You have our money bag.

Well,

I'm a bit hungry.

What good food can we eat here?

Dong's dried meat.

Miss,

it's very fresh.

Dong's dried meat.

I remember it's recorded in the map

their dried meat is very tasty.

Why not have a try?

OK. OK.

Let's go.

Dong's dried meat. Boss,

I want a portion.

OK.

Liu'er,

I'll go out

to handle something later.

Wait for me in the inn.

OK.

Please hurry right back.

How much?

Three coins per portion.

OK. Thank you.

See you.

The marriage of Miss Jun and Young Master Fang

is just a strategy.

Where is

she now?

Can we meet again?

Your Majesty, calm down please.

Due to your incompetence,

the Fang family gets rid of their unpresentable identity

and becomes imperial businessmen in just ways.

It's hard for us to deal with them later.

How can I calm down?

Though they showed their identity,

they didn't mention anything about the official funds,

nor do they

suspect it was done by Your Majesty.

They firmly believe

Li Changhong and the evil Madame Su were in collusion.

This plan must have been designed

by someone clever.

The reason why they didn't mention the past

is to protect themselves.

Having always been

in the palace,

I'm known by no one outside,

so

no one suspects

Your Majesty is involved in it.

Now the Fang family only knows

there must be someone

behind this matter,

but they don't care

who he is.

If

we do anything to them rashly,

it'll cause

all the people's speculations

of us.

If they know how to behave in this delicate situation

and don't cause any trouble,

I'll spare their lives

for some days

and decide whether to keep them or not

after it blows over.

Your Majesty, you're wise.

Jiuli,

Jiurong,

I'm back.

Are you sure he is His Lordship?

Yes.

As soon as he entered the capital city,

our men have targeted him.

His Lordship?

Boss,

another plateful of meat

and another beaker of wine.

OK.

Zhu Zan.

Enjoy yourselves.

OK.

Although you've been here for a long time,

I'm sure you don't know

the marinated meat in this restaurant tastes best.

Why do you still have the mood to eat?

Don't

you know

who the most wanted person

of Arm Moral Department is?

Yes, I know.

So eat

before they come.

If they come,

they'll spoil our mood.

I have no mood.

Eat quickly.

Enjoy your food.

If you eat worriedly,

you don't think anything tasty.

Have this.

You still have the mood to joke with other

at this critical moment.

Go back.

Don't you go with me?

I have something important to do.

After that, I'll go to the palace.

Go to the palace?

Why does he go to the palace?

Does

he want to confront Chu Rang

about the secret in Zezhou?

What's the last thing

he wants to do?

Let me go with you, OK?

Go back.

I know when to stop.

Don't flaunt your superiority.

OK.

Then I'll go back.

Don't you need my help?

Wait.

Pay.

Boss,

here you are.

OK.

See you.

Take care.

It's

my tomb.

It turns out I was buried

in the ancestral cemetery of the Lu family after death.

I was bound by this marriage

when I was alive and after I died.

I'm coming.

I'm back.

I bring the flower,

northern manjusaka,

you want.

What is

he doing?

Outline in my dream

can be carved on your face

Time interlaces in the eye waves

For unspeakable cause and effect

Let me weigh every word

Life is full of twists and turns

So hard to be free and easy

Tomorrow always comes

I'd like to entrust myself to you

to enjoy stars and the land together

In long silence

We are far separated by a sea of faces

What else can I do except for a sigh?

The rest of my life is bumpy

You are like vast nature, while I'm a gust of wind

I'm be eventually be passed by

The wind is in hot pursuit

to stay with nature

If memories can tell

It will make me shed tears

Rare to meet you again, tears well up in my eyes

Tomorrow always comes

I'd like to entrust myself to you

to enjoy stars and the land together

In long silence

We are far separated by a sea of faces

What else can I do except for a sigh?

The rest of my life is bumpy

You are like vast nature, while I'm a gust of wind

I'm be eventually be passed by

The wind is in hot pursuit

to stay with nature

If memories can tell

Every of its words will make me shed tears

Rare to meet you again, tears well up in my eyes

You are like vast nature, while I'm a gust of wind

You shuttle through the bottom of my heart

Has nature ever asked for any clues about the wind?

If my longing for you can be written down

Every word would be as strong as pouring rain falling down

You take me as a stranger when we finally meet again

Tears well up in my eyes

Let me perform magic for you.

Wait a moment.

I have a wish.

Can you help me realize it?

What wish?

Go ahead.

I can help you realize it.

It's heard there's a kind of flower called manjusaka in the north.

It looks very pretty in its flowering.

Bring one flower back with me

when you come back.

OK.

I promise you.

Is it pretty?

I think you look good with it.

Jiuling,

let me tell you a secret

which has been hidden in my heart.

I thought to tell you about it

when you called me Ling Jiu again.

But I had no chance anymore.

I like you.

I came immediately

when I got the news of your marriage.

But it was late.

Late.

Chu Jiuling already died,

but now Jun Jiuling knows

you covered 1,000 li

to pick this flower from the north,

during which you escaped from escort,

changed your name,

risked your life entering the capital city

and acted in black at night.

You just want to put this flower

before my tomb.

You cheat me.

You aren't buried inside.

Do you know?

I met a girl

who is exactly like you.

But I know she isn't you.

What should I do?

Lu Yunqi.

Your Lordship,

this is the ancestral cemetery of my family.

It's improper for you

to come here.

Because Jiuling's tomb is here.

She's my dead wife.

Lu Xiaozao,

listen.

How did Jiuling die?

She died of an acute illness.

The imperial doctor felt her pulse

before marriage.

Why did a healthy girl

die suddenly

at her wedding ceremony?

Human affairs are hard to predict.

But

it has nothing to do with you.

Your harassment is useless.

Stop cheating me.

Since it's useless to say more,

let's do something useful.

I'll teach you

a lesson

with my sword

for Jiuling.

Save it.

You dirty brat,

I'm afraid you've forgotten

why you're called Lu Xiaozao.

Let me remind you.

You were

black, small

and as thin as a rake.

If my dad hadn't taken you in,

you would have starved to death at the roadside.

Now

you begin to steal.

Dare you steal again?

Tell me.

Dare you steal?

Dare you?

Dare you?

I dare you.

You…

Zhu Zan.

Catch him.

Make way. Make way.

Get out of the way.

Eunuch Yuan.

I'm going to present myself to His Majesty.

Why do you stop me?

Eunuch Yuan,

he wanted to kill me here.

Your Lordship,

you're an adult.

Don't run wild again.

OK.

Look.

Your Excellency Lu,

His Majesty asked me

to take His Lordship to the palace.

Why do they take him to the palace?

Your Lordship,

please.

Please.

Your Excellency,

will we just let him go?

Go back to Arm Moral Department.

Let's go.

Zhu Zan,

you're so clever

that you can expect that your public appearance in the capital city

will cause an uproar.

So

entering the palace

is also your plan to get out,

isn't it?

I hope everything goes as you expected

and you can return safely.

Miss Jun.

Mr. Ning.

Miss Jun,

long time no see.

Long time no see.

You helped the Fang family

get rid of danger,

which is admirable.

You know all?

Yes, my family mentioned it in a letter.

Why do you come here?

I'm,

I'm here for something.

But no one knows I'm here

except my family.

So…

OK.

I'll keep it a secret for you.

If you need any help here,

please find me

in my uncle's mansion.

OK.

Do you have anything on your mind?

The metropolitan exam is drawing near.

You'll have good grades for sure.

Let it be.

You're determined to be an official.

It's my inescapable duty

to continue and develop my family.

You're good at reading,

but the official circles are full of danger.

I know

you're honest.

My uncle also reminded me of that.

Do you also know the law of the official circles?

Anyhow,

I hope you can pass the exam

and get what you want.

See you.

Miss Jun, let me

send you home.

No, thanks.

It's just ahead.
