Your Sensibility My Destiny

Episode 23

Don't be afraid, I'm here.

Don't be afraid, I'm here.

Don't be afraid, I'm here.

No matter where you are,

I'll always run to you

if you're in danger.

It's not for you

but for myself.

It's for

my love for you.

What's wrong? Madam hasn't come back yet?

I'm really worried about her.

Ling Shu, let's split up and find her.

Ling Hua, you stay here.

Do not let her go out again if she comes back.

I understand.

Young Master, look.

Let's go.

It's not only one person.

Hurry up.

Old Man Zhuang?

Brother!

Brother!

Brother.

Ding Luan?

Where is Chi?

We're going to split up and find her.

Why do you come here?

Ming Capital is in trouble.

If it wasn't that case,

we wouldn't take the risk to come to you.

Father has been monitored by Ji Ding Yue.

And Du Ruo has been arrested.

Her Majesty is going to be criminalised, too.

There's no way we can fix it.

So we think

we can't hide this from you.

Brother Du.

Ji Ding Yue is crazy.

I can't leave Father and Mother behind.

Hold on.

How do you guys know all this?

Ji Ding Yue said that Father missed me

so he asked me to enter the palace.

Father made every effort to disclose

his recent situation to me

in front of Ji Ding Yue,

he pretended to banish me to the fief.

That's how I got the chance

to escape with Old Man Zhuang and Wan'er to tip you off.

You've fallen into his trap.

Ji Ding Yue wanted to lure you here.

He can find us here as long as they keep following you.

Don't worry.

The troops

can't come in here.

I've set Esoteric Runes

all around the yard.

They can't find us here in a short time

without a map as they don't know the way.

What matters now is

to avoid them

and rush back to Ming Capital.

Yes.

They've followed us all the way here.

But we've easily ditched them

when we reached this forest.

You mean

they've already followed you to the forest?

Darn it, Lin Chi is in danger.

-Chi! -Madam!

It's Lin Chi's one.

Darn it, it's over.

We didn't expect

Chi would come out alone.

Ji Ding Yue, as you've gone such lengths,

then I'll perish with you.

-Brother! -Stop right there!

Where are you going?

What's wrong with you?

You're usually calm and discreet.

Why are you being a fool now?

Brother, please reconsider.

If Sister-in-law were caught by Ji Ding Yue,

he would love for you to walk into his trap.

Now that Father, Mother

and Du Ruo are in his hand.

If you go to him rashly,

are you sure you can perish

with Ji Ding Yue without caring about them?

Everything Ji Ding Yue does is not for the throne.

He just wants me to die.

As such, I'll just die.

What are you talking about?

Memorial Tablet of Noble Consort Min

Brother,

you came back from the fief so soon.

Is it because you miss me?

To Ji Ding Yue

What is it?

Ji Ding Yue, the coward.

He still doesn't dare to confront me.

And asks you to deliver the letter for him.

Brother is willing to give you what you want.

If you agree with it,

I'll deliver your message to him.

You don't have to tell me other things.

I'll trade my life for the lives of Father, Mother,

I'll trade my life

for the lives of Father, Mother,

Du Ruo and Lin Chi's.

Du Ruo and Lin Chi's.

I swear to God, the violators will suffer eternal damnation.

I swear to God, the violators will suffer eternal damnation.

Very well.

I promise him.

I'll be waiting for his body.

If he doesn't dare to die,

tell him that

someone will die in his stead every day.

Just protect the people you want to protect.

Or else, beware of being condemned by God.

It's all my fault.

I shouldn't have insisted on going out alone.

If Mo Qing Chen comes to save me,

he'll fall into Ji Ding Yue's trap.

Now what?

I never thought you'd be so despicable.

Using such dirty tricks

because you couldn't beat Mo Qing Chen.

You're calling me despicable?

At least unlike somebody, I didn't sacrifices others

to achieve my own goal.

Let's get this straight.

When did I make others sacrifice for me?

Have you ever thought of how you were able to escape?

Du Ruo is currently half-dead

just to help you escape.

What are you talking about?

Isn't he protected by His Majesty?

What is his crime?

Father protects him? That's funny.

Father told me that Du Ruo forged

the gold tablet without authorization

and faked an imperial decree.

He even let go of the criminals.

He lied to the emperor.

How can it be?

Don't get too excited.

Mo Qing Chen will find a way to bring you down.

Just you wait.

As you can say such things,

why don't you try and guess this with me?

See if your husband is willing to die for you.

To Ji Ding Yue

Your Highness,

Prince Jing is back.

Did he bring anything back with him?

He did.

A coffin.

You actually married

a husband who's willing to die for you.

I should go and see him one last time.

I'll excuse myself.

As you wish,

he's dead.

How did he die?

He died from the poison hemlock.

Open the coffin.

He's willing to die for a woman.

I don't believe that.

He's not you.

He is a righteous man.

Right, he's dead.

He's never brought calamity to the country and people.

You win

but you're wrong.

I kill him just to eradicate the demon.

You're still my little brother.

I won't do anything to you

as long as you're well-behaved.

There are two more requests which

my brother wanted me to tell you.

Go on.

First, he has already traded his life.

Do not hurt Father, Her Majesty

and Lin Chi anymore.

I've said that I did this to eradicate the demon.

This is for Father.

I let go of Lin Chi last time.

I'll also keep my promise this time.

But Her Majesty killed my mother.

Why don't you listen to my second request

before making a decision?

Go on.

He wanted his body to stay in the palace morgue

for three days and to have a glorified funeral

in the capacity of a prince.

After his death,

I'm no longer interested in state affairs.

Naturally, Nanlu will be under your control by then.

I believe you wouldn't wish the Ji clan

to be condemned by future generations for having a fratricidal war

because of a demon brother.

So

Brother should have an official funeral and a tomb

befitting of a prince!

And you shouldn't have

any reason to kill Her Majesty.

He still has a hold on me even after he's dead.

If he had spent that effort on himself,

he wouldn't have been defeated by me.

All right, I promise you.

Father could keep his position.

I won't kill Lin Chi and Her Majesty.

But I can't let a dangerous person roam free.

You...

I have no choice.

So do you.

All right.

If you still see me as your little brother,

just let me see Lin Chi.

I want to tell her about what happened to Brother in person.

You can send someone to spy on me.

I don't care if you want to tie me up with a rope.

I'll still want to go and see her.

Lin Chi already heard about his death.

I'm afraid

she'd die with him if you're late.

It can't be.

Mo Qing Chen wouldn't die like this.

He'll come and save me.

I'll be waiting for him right here.

Brother is...

He won't die.

He'll come and save me.

Brother has already done it.

Just that

he couldn't come in person.

♫ The memory flows like river, vivid and persistent ♫

Take me to him.

♫ We promised to meet under the sky ♫

I want to see him.

♫ To hold our hands in love ♫

I want to see him.

I beg you, take me to him.

♫ No regrets, there's a gap in our fate ♫

Lin Chi, remember this.

♫ We'll call this a success worthwhile ♫

Brother is dead.

♫ Freeze the moments, break through the obstacles ♫

You must let him rest in peace.

I'm here

♫ Cross the barrier of time ♫

to convey his message to you.

He wants you to stay alive.

♫ Are you afraid too? Please be brave ♫

You must stay alive.

♫ I'll exchange the lingering warmth with you ♫

♫ In all its complexity, this gentle gaze ♫

♫ Shall keep our tangled longing in memory ♫

♫ Let time carve out who we used to be ♫

If any of you dares to abuse her,

it's still pretty easy for me

♫ I'm broken because of you ♫

to deal with you guys.

♫ Tears stain my face ♫

♫ Trying to find the eternal answer to this mortal world ♫

Long Yang Palace

My Ding Lan.

You killed Ding Lan.

You killed Ding Lan!

You killed him!

Father, why do you feel sad?

Ji Ding is a demon who brings

calamity to the nation and you.

I just eradicate him for you.

This is what he deserves.

You should thank me.

Demon?

You always say Ding Lan is a demon.

But you're the one who kills

your own brother!

I know exactly

who the demon is.

Listen to me carefully.

I won't let you ascend the throne

even if Ding Lan is dead.

Don't ever think about it!

Everything I've done

is not for the throne.

I'm just seeking justice for myself,

whom Father hates for no reason,

and my mother,

who died in grievances.

Justice?

Your mother framed the prince and the Queen.

She deserved to die.

You thought all are besotted except you.

But you didn't know

you're just a silly kid who is easy to understand.

I am silly.

That's why I did so much

for the sake of righteousness.

Father, you're tired.

You should stay here and think for yourself.

Stop being in sorrow because of losing your son.

Take care of your health.

You brute.

You brute!

Don't worry, I'll protect myself.

For you.

Where did she get the mushroom?

Did Prince Jing give it to her?

Did he want her to use it to do something?

Or is he trying to tell her something?

Ultimately, we still have to come to this.

You're the eldest son, so what?

You're Father's favourite, so what?

You're good at martial arts, so what?

Eventually, you're still lying here like this.

You've failed.

You can't blame this on me at this point.

You should blame it

on yourself for being a demon who brings calamity to the nation.

If it wasn't that case,

my mother

wouldn't have died because of accusing you.

Maybe we brothers

could've married the sisters together,

supported each other and had a good relationship.

I've forgotten

why I hated you,

and when I started to hate you.

Was it because of Mother

or Father

or it was just because you're a demon?

Are you really the one I hate?

It's ridiculous, right?

I thought

I'd be very happy once you're dead.

Only now do I realise

that even though you're already dead,

Father still blames me.

He doesn't have a shred of guilt for my mother.

However,

there's still a lot of people loving you.

And

there's still nothing for me.

Just sleep peacefully here.

As long as Father is willing to clear my mother's name,

I won't do anything to Lin Chi and Her Majesty.

If your spirit is in heaven, please bless me

and let Father fulfil my wish.

You stay here and watch over Second Prince.

Do not let anyone interrupt him.

Yes.

Prince Rui's Residence

Mother,

Ji Ding Lan is dead.

He died at my hand.

But Father is still not willing to believe in me.

And he's still not willing to clear your name.

Why is that?

He's dead

but the hatred in my heart

hasn't been lessened.

Did I

have my revenge?

Memorial Tablet of Noble Consort Min

Your Highness.

♫ The light of faith illuminates the future ♫

Your Highness, drink some tea.

It's getting late, I'll stay here with you

♫ An obsession without question ♫

and grind the ink for you, okay?

♫ I love you so much that even pains come late ♫

Your Highness, it's getting chilly.

♫ I'm afraid to see the look in your eyes ♫

This is the newly stitched cloak I made.

It's no match to the needlework of the palace workers.

But it's a small token of my regard.

♫ Falling in an instant for someone ♫

All of you have left me.

♫ Time passed in the blink of an eye ♫

I'm the only one left.

♫ I was too stupid to lock a door ♫

I've sacrificed a lot

♫ And wasn't brave enough to keep you around ♫

so I must get the job done.

♫ I caress your face and my tears drop in silence ♫

♫ Needle and thread mend the scars that appear over time ♫

♫ Sewing a floating dream ♫

Mother,

♫ Wandering in the humanly world with foolishness that may get me killed ♫

give me some more time.

I'm sure I can

and I'll make you

♫ If we survive the night, we will likely be together forever ♫

an honourable memorial service

and justify Ling Yan's death.

Your Highness,

the jailer sent word that something's wrong with Lin Chi.

So he came to report to Your Highness.

The meal is stale.

How dare you send this to Her Majesty?

It's stale, right?

It's beyond my control.

I just send what the chef made.

Moreover,

Her Majesty is

currently a sinner.

It's good enough for her to be able

to stay here and eat this.

Her Majesty is the Queen.

A servant like you is not allowed to pick on her and scorn her.

I want to see His Majesty.

Madam Fang! Madam Fang!

Get up!

You don't want to eat it? Then, I'll...

Your Majesty.

You're being so brazen.

Eunuch Dai.

I forgot.

I'm all alone now.

Ding Lan died because of my evil deeds.

If I'd known,

I should've just...

As expected, you're not dead.

That's all I wanted.

How did you know it?

I can't believe you have such good things.

Look closely.

He doesn't dare to die for you.

He's such a coward.

I'll make him die with you today.

Even if you abduct her,

I can still get away from you with her.

You should know that.

Of course.

But you forgot that

I never dared to underestimate you.

Ultimately, your imperceptibility will lead you to death.

The poison on these needles

will paralyse and weaken your whole body.

If you were a regular person,

you wouldn't have been tricked by such a crude trap.

Unfortunately,

you're a senseless demon.

Lin Chi, I'm sorry.

I can't save you this time.

At least

you two will die together.

Mo Qing Chen.

Sorry for putting you through this.

This will be the last time.

I understand. This will be the last time.

I've never been this grateful

to be able to weep for you.

It can't be.

If you really have such martial skills,

why would you go down without a fight just now?

Try and guess.

Don't you like guessing?

Maybe I'm a demon, too.

Brother, just stop.

You've lost.

It can't be. It's impossible.

I won't lose.

Why did my mother do this?

I've worked so hard,

why does everyone only care

about a demon like you?

I can lose to God,

but I can't lose to you.

I'm the only one who got it right.

Why can't I?

It's obvious that I'm right.

You killed my parents.

Do you still think that you're right?

They helped this demon.

They deserved to die.

What about Ling Yan?

Ling Yan.

Ling Yan. Ling Yan.

Ling Yan didn't want me to die.

Hang on.

Greetings, Father.

Father,

many affairs in the palace has been settled.

Please rest assured.

I've brought Brother over.

I hope you could personally give him punishment, Father.

Where is Ding Lan?

Father, don't worry.

Brother only has a minor injury.

I guess he went back

to get some rest as he's tired.

I hope you won't hold it against him, Father.

I understand.

I'd like to speak to him in private.

Yes, I'll excuse myself.

All right.

All of you, stand down.

As you make all this fuss until today,

is it enough for you?

What's my fault for eradicating a demon?

You're the one who is at fault, Father.

All you care about is only Ji Ding Lan.

When did you care about me?

If you had seen Ji Ding Lan

for the demon that he was,

my mother wouldn't have died.

And I wouldn't have gone this far.

When did I care about you?

Yue'er,

you keep thinking that I'm siding with Lan'er

but you didn't know

the one whom I've been protecting is you.

It's you, Yue'er.

Protect me?

Father, you killed Mother

to protect me?

You killed my grandparents

to protect me?

I suffer a lot under your protection.

Just spare me if you really can

protect me.

Then, I'll continue to play

along with you as a filial son and you can act like a caring father.

What a treacherous son.

If you can't protect me,

just give the order to kill me and watch me die.

Don't ever think

of sleeping peacefully for the rest of your life.

Me and Mother's spirits

will drag you down to hell with us!

What a treacherous son!

Drag him out!

Drag him out!

Just you wait, Father.

Just you wait!

What a treacherous son.

Put me down.

Does it hurt? Do you want to switch back?

Switch back?

How could you protect me if you switch back?

Do you want me to fight

with an injury if we're in danger?

Put me down.

Why didn't you dress the wound in the palace?

Yet, you came all the way back here to Wu Mo Manor?

Ling Shu and Ling Hua are not here.

You don't even have a helper.

I insisted on coming back to the manor

because there's no one here.

Why is that?

It's been a long time since I was alone with you.

Isn't it great that there's only me and you?

What's wrong?

Is it because you're still mad that I didn't

let you kill Ji Ding Yue?

I didn't let you kill him

because I knew there's something

between him and Father that they need to straighten out.

At this point,

I'm afraid Father can't protect him

even if he wants to.

So what difference does it make

if you kill him yourself?

Why don't you let him figure it all out

and die fully informed?

I agree.

We should let him know what he's going to die for.

Otherwise, he'll still think

that he's right even after his death.

Why did you sigh

if you understood this?

Because you came back to me alive.

♫ You let our love swirl with the wind and snow ♫

It feels like I'm having a dream.

I'm afraid this dream will be over.

♫ I can't let you wilt alone ♫

So I can't get too excited.

♫ Nor this beautiful poem I wrote be crushed ♫

I'd bleed to death

if you still didn't dress my wound.

I'm afraid the dream would really be over by then.
