Episode 24

Jiuling Drugstore

Fang Mansion

What are you doing here?

Invite Dr. Jun.

What for?

His Highness Prince Huai has had a high fever

since last night.

I'll wait for you outside.

Well.

Liu'er,

medicine box.

Your Ladyship, are you still going in this case?

He is my patient.

I should go in any case.

But it's improper in this case.

Let Dr. Feng go.

Yes.

Lu Yunqi must be waiting

in the mansion to catch you.

Don't go.

Since His Majesty made me County Princess Shanyang,

Lu Yunqi can do nothing to me.

You can't make it clear

with a lunatic.

Fine. Don't worry.

Wait for me.

Chen Qi,

prepare the carriage.

OK.

Your Excellency.

Hello.

Where is His Highness Prince Huai?

You're so clever that

you should have guessed that

I lied to you

with this excuse.

Your Excellency Lu,

it's my duty as a doctor to come here.

Is it your duty to humiliate me?

Duty as a doctor?

You changed your name,

tried your best

to treat the nobility

and fought against the Imperial Academy of Medicine

to

come here, right?

After working in Arm Moral Department for a long time,

you've become so sensitive.

I'm simple.

Now that you want to come here,

I'll let you come

and

let you stay here forever.

What do you mean?

You'll

know it soon.

His Highness Prince Huai is fishing in the back garden.

Your Highness,

Miss Jun is here.

Your Highness Prince Huai.

Your Highness likes fishing very much.

Let me see

how many fish you have caught.

Get away.

You scared my fish away.

You seem to

hate me a lot.

So what?

I hate you very much.

Get away.

You seduced my brother-in-law

and bullied my sister.

Get away.

Get away.

Get away.

Get away.

Get away.

Get away. Get away. Get away.

Get away. Get away.

Get away. Get away. Get away.

Get away.

Get away.

Who are you?

Jiurong.

Jiurong.

Jiuling,

I miss you so much.

Me, too.

In my dream a few days ago,

you bought me much food

and told me many stories.

Really?

Yes.

I just

brought your food.

Come on.

Really?

You're the best to me.

Eat it.

Thank you.

You first.

I specially brought it for you.

You grow taller.

Let's see if you've finished you homework.

Well.

Jiuling.

Well done.

Are you Jiuling?

I'm not Jiuling,

but we were good friends.

She told me

to take care of you.

No.

Jiuli got married

and Jiuling was dead.

You bully my sister.

You have been bullying her.

Your Highness Prince Huai,

I'll never bully

you and your sister this life.

Never.

I don't know who is spreading the rumor that

because His Excellency Lu

didn't embarrass Miss Jun,

she left the Mansion of Prince Huai safely.

Some said His Excellency Lu

really loves her.

It's a no brainer.

It must be those of Arm Moral Department

and the Imperial Academy of Medicine.

Yuck!

How dirty!

After being defeated face to face,

they turn to

dirty means.

If it goes on,

I'm afraid it'll harm Her Ladyship's reputation.

Never mind.

Her Ladyship doesn't cure the sickness

with her reputation.

You're right.

She didn't have a good reputation

in Zezhou back then.

Your Ladyship. Your Ladyship.

The son of Lord Cheng

is fighting with those of Arm Moral Department.

What?

What's going on?

His Excellency Lu has betrothal presents sent again.

But His Lordship stopped them

and took the presents to Arm Moral Department.

Your Ladyship.

-You two stay here. You two stay here. -Your Ladyship.

Your Ladyship.

Hurry up.

Wait for me.

Your Ladyship.

Your Ladyship, over there.

A pile of rubbish.

Step back.

Get away. Get away.

Stop.

What are you doing?

It's so close to the imperial city.

Do you think

His Majesty knows nothing?

Your Lordship,

since you got to the capital city,

you have always caused troubles.

What's wrong today?

Why did you fight

at the gate of Arm Moral Department?

Because he is shameless.

What did he do?

Everything he has done is shameless.

OK.

Today

you need to make it clear.

Now that

you fought in public,

certainly

you can talk in public.

Young Master,

it'll be the parade for No. 1 Scholar days later.

You'll ride a tall and strong horse.

Many people will come to see you by then.

Young man,

what happened ahead?

The son of Lord Cheng and Commander Lu

are fighting at the gate of Arm Moral Department.

Wait.

Why?

It's said that it is because of Miss Jun of Jiuling Drugstore.

I'm leaving.

Miss...

Have a look.

I'll have a look over there.

Lu Yunqi,

don't you know

what you have done?

I don't understand why

you smashed the gate of Arm Moral Department

with

my betrothal presents.

I like Miss Jun

and want to marry her.

Does it have anything to do with you?

You like her so you can marry her?

You like a princess of Beiqi

and give her betrothal presents,

so she should

marry you happily?

He is right.

Everyone,

don't laugh.

You have wives and daughters too.

If some day

His Excellency Lu likes them

and sends presents

to your home

without asking,

will you agree?

No.

No.

No.

No.

No.

Do you hear it?

Miss Jun disagrees,

so the betrothal presents were thrown back.

Don't you understand what that means?

You sent them

over and over again shamelessly.

What do you want to do?

To marry her by force?

Even if she disagrees,

that's between her and me.

Why

should you step in?

Commander Lu

can say that,

but the son of Lord Cheng can't.

His Lordship will inherit

the title of Lord Cheng,

so he can't decide his own marriage.

If he says that

and his parents disagree,

Miss Jun

will become a joke.

If he doesn't say that,

how should he explain what he is doing?

It's like fighting for a courtesan in the brothel.

Because I am...

Because Miss Jun

is my fiancée.

Is he crazy?

Miss Jun and I

have been engaged since we were young.

We agreed to negotiate on our own

after I took the imperial exam.

Unexpectedly,

you misunderstood.

His Lordship knew it

and did me a favor.

Your Excellency Lu, please don't blame His Lordship.

Thank you very much,

Your Lordship.

Everyone,

as the new No. 1 Scholar,

I swear in public.

My engagement with Miss Jun

is still valid

and will be completed on another day.

I didn't expect that

the new No. 1 Scholar

is so emotional.

Yes.

But it does

benefit you, Your Majesty.

Think about it.

Jun Jiuling

is a young woman,

but three men

fought for her in public.

Her reputation was ruined.

Regardless of her great achievements,

the people tend to

gossip about

these indecent

love affairs.

What a mess!

Besides the Fang and Zhu families,

the Ning family is also involved.

Tell

Lu Yunqi

not to let me down again.

Yes.

Is there anything bothering you?

You've drunk a lot.

Last time when you got drunk,

it was because of Princess Jiuling...

I...

It is because of Miss Jun.

No.

It has nothing to do with her.

He is crying.

OK. OK. OK.

No. No.

If not, why did you

smash the gate of Arm Moral Department today?

I couldn't

bear to see Lu Yunqi.

And I stood up for her

incidentally.

I see.

Just cry.

Go on.

Zan,

it's not because of Miss Jun.

Without anything annoying,

don't cry like that.

OK, Zan?

To tell the truth,

I want to return to the North

to ride horses,

train soldiers

and fight with Beiqi men.

It's so boring in the capital city.

You know

why His Majesty locks you

in the capital city.

Think positively.

He is depressed these days.

Let him vent it out.

He is clearly trapped in love.

Sanbing,

because

Mr. Ning said

he is Miss Jun's fiancé,

Zan is depressed, right?

I really wonder

if Mr. Ning hadn't shown up,

what Zan would say.

I guess.

Zan.

Fine. Fine. Fine.

Fine.

Let him drink.

Again?

If you stop me, I'll beat you.

OK. Come on.

If you're so sad,

beat me.

Come on.

I'm afraid what happened today

has become a hot topic

and known to all.

What are you going to do?

The new No. 1 Scholar,

the governor of Arm Moral Department

and the son of Lord Cheng

fought fiercely

on the street

for Her Ladyship.

It'll make girls in the capital city envious.

How stupid!

Do you think it's a blessing?

It shows that many people love Her Ladyship.

Isn't that

a blessing?

Being liked is a blessing,

but

it shouldn't go too far.

What do you mean?

You can't understand even if I tell you.

Mr. Ning.

Miss Jun.

Are you here for what happened today?

Yes.

I'm going to discuss with you.

Thank you for helping me out today.

I said that

without discussing with you.

Please don't blame me.

Certainly not.

Go.

What?

Go.

Childe Ning, take a seat.

In that case,

I had no choice

but used the previous engagement as an excuse.

I didn't mean to ask you to fulfill it.

I knew, of course.

After you came here,

you haven't returned to Zezhou, right?

You

want me to avoid it in Zezhou?

You're so clever.

The rumors...

From Zezhou to the capital city,

there have always been

rumors about me.

I'm used to it,

but it bothers you.

As the new No.1 Scholar

appointed by His Majesty,

you're on a roll.

However, you were got involved for me.

The fame is a mundane thing.

You don't care about it.

Why should I fear?

Now only you and I know

the engagement is false.

If it causes you inconvenience,

I can clarify at any time.

No.

I fear it will cause you inconvenience.

No.

This is what the Ning family owed you.

I should do that.

You owe me nothing.

Zhu Zan.

How much wine did you drink?

It's late. What are you doing here?

OK. OK. OK.

Sit down.

Hurry up.

Sit down.

How many

husbands do you have?

What?

How many husbands do you have?

Chengyu is the first.

You saw him.

Ning Yunzhao

is the second.

I know that.

You've seen the third one.

Me?

Yes.

Don't flatter yourself.

Don't joke.

I have a sweetheart.

I'm serious.

If Childe Ning had hesitated,

you would say that, right?

You're still

flattering yourself.

Let me count for you.

With

a rich husband

and a talented husband,

how dare you

imagine me,

a talented hero, being your husband!

Hero, drink the tea

to sober up.

What,

what are you looking at?

I'm thinking

what makes lunatic Lu Yunqi

so crazy.

Just a name?

It's not enough

to drive him crazy.

Why does he persist

in marrying you?

Drink,

drink another cup of tea.

Then

sober up

and go back.

It's late.

You took the wrong one.

Zhu Zan,

don't drink.

It's late. Go back.

You won't tell me, right?

I...

Don't lie down.

If you don't tell me,

I won't go.

You,

you can't stay here.

Come on. Come on.

Zhu Zan, put your clothes on.

Put your clothes on, OK?

Zhu Zan, you...

Zhu Zan?

You know Lu Yunqi is my third husband.

Good morning.

Why are you in my room?

Look around.

You broke in

late at night

and asked me

how many husbands I have.

So

did you answer me?

Yes.

I said I have two husbands.

That's impossible.

I drank with Zhang Baotang yesterday.

He said it.

You said

you have a sweetheart

and told me not to flatter myself

and not to like you.

Jun,

you're indecent.

How can you say that?

You had the cheek to ask me,

so I had the cheek to answer you.

What a big bed!

With just a bed,

last night did you,

did you...

Do you want me

to take the responsibility?

Thank you

for helping me out yesterday.

Don't bother.

Say

thank you to your second husband.

He helped you out.

I did.

After what happened yesterday,

you met each other.

We also met each other, right?

Zan's drinking capability

is so amazing.

He even slept in someone else's bedroom.

How about drinking more,

Zan?

Zan,

don't be so angry.

Did you come here

in the early morning to laugh at me?

Come on.

Go to the point.

Has my father

replied?

Not yet.

But in terms of time,

the letter will arrive in a few days.

And news from the Sky Pavilion.

Wan Qing, an orphan of the Wan family,

once appeared in Nanyuan Town

and disappeared after that.

Nanyuan Town

is over 20 miles away from the capital city.

There are two possibilities.

One

is that she was caught by Arm Moral Department.

The other

is that she entered the capital city

to avenge the Wan clan.

In this case,

I'll inquire about it in the imperial prison.

However, if they caught her,

Lu Yunqi would lock her

in a hidden prison somewhere else

or

kill her right away.

Baotang,

go and find out about it.

Keep a low profile.

Ask those from the Sky Pavilion

to explore in the capital city.

If she came to the capital city for revenge,

she will appear

around Huang Cheng and his son.

Stop her before she takes action.

Otherwise, she will only pay

her life in vain.

Baotang,

explore in the imperial prison.

OK.

Sanbing,

search for her around the capital city.

OK.

Young Master,

I don't think it's proper

for you to do that.

You don't understand.

Whether it is good

or not doesn't depend on

what others say.

Then

what does it depend on?

Whether it goes with my heart.

As long as I want to do it,

I'll do it even if it's against the prevailing trend.

Though others don't think

it is good,

it's the best as long as

I want to do it.

Young Master,

even if it's good to you,

it'll hurt Miss Jun.

Why?

What you did

sows discord between Miss Jun and madam.

They won't get on

well with each other in the future.

Look.

It's troublesome

between women.

Madam

doesn't like Miss Jun, right?

But you said the engagement

with Miss Jun is still valid.

If

madam knows it

in Zezhou,

she'll be driven crazy.

She will be mad at me,

because I did it.

Why don't you understand?

She

won't be mad at you.

She will hate Miss Jun.

Even if Miss Jun does nothing,

that won't help.

Madam thinks

everything is

Miss Jun's fault.

That,

that's unreasonable.

Yes.

It's always unreasonable

between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.

If you make

madam happy,

she'll agree

and ask Miss Jun about the marriage.

In this case,

it'll be easier.

Yunzhao

won't bring troubles

to the family.

Why did he do that?

Because he didn't know

it'll bring troubles.

If he hadn't stood up,

would it have become as serious as he said?

It's not important now.

What matters now is that we can't deny it,

or the consequences

are much worse.

Then we have to admit it?

Yes.

And admit it seriously.

Keep it secret

even at home.

Sister-in-law

wanted Yunzhao to get married

after he passes the exam,

so she may get a grandson next year.

In this case,

we have to keep it secret even if it's false.

You can make it true.

Dear.

Dear,

Miss Jun is nice.

Back then you said

she acted absurdly.

Perhaps it was because she was young.

Now...

It doesn't work now.

You men

just weigh the pros and cons?

You don't think about feelings at all.

No matter

how nice Miss Jun is,

sister-in-law won't agree.

First tell them

he has become No. 1 Scholar.

It can't be delayed anymore.

You mean

we have to

keep it from sister-in-law.

We can't hide

this important matter.

We can't tell them in the letter.

You know how dirty

Arm Moral Department is.

Be careful.

Hide it

as long as possible.

Grandma,

Jiuling's problem

was solved.

That's good news.

Thus,

you don't need to go to the capital city.

What do you mean?

If Childe Ning hadn't stood up,

you would go there?

I planned to

go there if she couldn't

solve it.

I would talk about my poor life

and complain tearfully to

His Excellency Lu about taking away my wife.

You're

out of your mind.

What does the Ning family

want to do?

Grandma,

what you said

will hurt Childe Ning.

He meant nothing else.

He just wanted to

help Jiuling.

As a member of the Ning family

and an old friend of Jiuling,

it's proper for him to do that.

Thus,

it will not cause suspicion

and give an end to the matter.

It's entirely reasonable.

I know that,

but I can't figure out

why he did that.

Yeah.

Why?

Of course it was to help Jiuling.

Grandma,

mother,

now that Childe Ning helped,

he helped sincerely.

That's impossible.

The withdrawal of the engagement

drove Mrs. Ning mad.

He was teased to value 5,000 taels in public,

the same price of a courtesan.

And the matter that happened in Jinyun Restaurant.

He won't let

all these go easily.

As the new

No. 1 Scholar,

Childe Ning had no reason to help.

Grandma,

mother,

if you don't trust Childe Ning,

don't you trust Jiuling?

She said he helped him.

I trust her.

Jiuling is so clever.

She won't let herself suffer.

So

I think

Jiuling and Childe Ning

discussed that long ago.

Perhaps

Jiuling came up with that idea.

So many things

have happened to her.

I can't help it.

By the way,

grandma,

I'll go to Deshengchang with Yuxiu.

We're leaving.

OK.

Learn more from Yuxiu.

Yes,

grandma.

Mother.
