Episode 40

These must be fake.

The third year of the Taiyuan period.

Imperial treasury.

This is not counterfeit.

This is the only batch of silver made

by the court in the third year of the Taiyuan period.

It was supposed to be shipped to Zezhou

to redeem the emperor's father.

It seems that Beiqi

didn't break its words

to kill the emperor's father

after receiving the ransom.

They killed him because this batch of silver

wasn't shipped to Zezhou at all.

This is not true.

I'm framed up.

You frame me up.

We have both witness

and physical evidence.

We don't frame you up.

For this batch of silver,

you almost killed the three generations

of our Fang family.

I see.

You're colluding with each other

to frame me up.

You want to rebel?

Someone!

Who dares?

We're all listening

and watching.

Do you want to kill everyone here?

My ministers,

you all saw it.

And I also said that

these people

want to rebel.

You can

choose to

believe me or not.

I believe Your Majesty.

I also believe Your Majesty.

I also believe Your Majesty.

I also believe Your Majesty.

I believe Your Majesty.

Jiuli, Jiurong, come here.

Be careful,

not to be hurt.

But human viciousness is more horrible.

Why did grandpa die in Beiqi?

And the ransom sent to your fief had an accident.

You should make an explanation.

Why don't even you believe me?

You shouldn't believe their fallacies.

Catch all

these rebels.

Who dares?

Catch them.

Catch them!

Stop.

Lu Yunqi,

well,

are you also going to rebel?

I failed

to protect her well.

I won't

repeat the same mistake today.

Good means.

Next, are you going

to convict me?

Who dares to convict me?

I,

am the orthodox emperor

who inherited the throne from my father and brother.

Who dares?

I,

am the emperor!

Do you forget

how you ascended the throne?

Do you remember this seal pattern?

The late emperor secretly investigated this matter,

but you worried that your crime

of secretly hiding the silver was exposed,

so you killed your brother

and usurped the throne.

Nonsense!

For the throne,

you abandoned your father's life

and killed your brother.

During your reign, you listened to only one side,

ceded three counties

and increased taxes,

causing the people

to live on the edge of starvation.

You're unqualified for the emperor!

You think

what you say is the fact?

Show me your evidence.

Bing'er.

Why is it

suddenly going to rain?

Sir said,

if there is an anomaly,

someone must do something wrong,

and God will punish him.

There are so many people in the world.

God is too busy

to judge who is wrong or not.

It can.

God is fair.

Go home.

-I'm packing up my stall. -We're leaving.

I'm Bing'er, the imperial maid

of the late emperor.

I served the late emperor to take medicine.

The late emperor was healthy,

so he didn't suddenly die of illness as the Imperial Academy of Medicine said.

On the night when the late emperor died,

Your Majesty entered the imperial palace secretly,

and I saw the scratch

on the neck of the late emperor's corpse

after Your Majesty left.

It's ridiculous.

How ridiculous.

Back then,

His Excellency Lu Yunqi

was on duty in the imperial palace.

He also saw the corpse of the late emperor.

I lied

to you.

Today,

I'll tell you the truth.

That night

I was indeed on duty.

When I passed the Imperial Study,

I heard the late emperor asking for help.

When I rushed in,

I saw

Chu Rang

strangling the late emperor.

Your Majesty.

Lu Yunqi.

Get out.

Don't let anyone in.

You,

you beast who killed your brother and your father!

Do you still want to protect him?

Well…

Well…

Brother,

did you really do these?

That's our father

and brother!

No.

No.

I didn't do it.

I didn't do it!

You're mad.

You're madmen.

You're all madmen!

Lu Yunqi.

Lu Yunqi,

how did I treat you?

What did she do to you?

Why do you help her hurt me?

Because

she is Jiuling.

Chu

Jiu

ling.

Princess Jiuling?

Princess Jiuling is not dead.

Chu Jiuling?

Chu Rang.

Impossible.

Impossible.

She died long ago.

Uncle,

I'm still alive.

I let you down.

Back then,

I knew the truth about the death of my father,

so I wanted to kill you

on my wedding day.

You killed my father?

Yes.

So what?

Unexpectedly,

you wanted to kill me to keep your secret.

But luckily, I was saved by Jun Yingwen and his daughter.

So I didn't die.

You're my uncle.

Chu Rang,

to revenge my father,

I came towards you

step by step.

You killed my father and usurped the throne.

For the imperial power

and your selfish desires,

you believed crafty sycophants

and kept away from good ministers.

Confronted with the formidable enemies,

Minister Han died for the state.

Without the loyal ministers

and good generals like Lord Cheng,

Tianyou would have collapsed long ago.

Have you thought about

how to face the forefathers

after you're buried in the imperial mausoleum

in the future?

Have you ever

felt guilty?

Brother.

What's up?

This is…

Brother, brother.

Brother,

I was wrong.

It's late!

Congratulate

Your Highness Princess Jiuling on returning.

Congratulate Your Highness Princess Jiuling on returning.

Congratulate Your Highness Princess Jiuling on returning.

Congratulate Your Highness Princess Jiuling on returning.

Father,

do you see it?

The immoral emperor

shouldn't dominate the world.

Now the secret concealed in Zezhou

has been exposed.

How will you

deal with the traitor Chu Rang?

I won't kill him.

Tianyou people has known

what he did.

They'll judge his behavior in the future.

Just keep him alive

to be scolded by the people,

which will be the greatest punishment for him.

Jiuling.

Childe Ning.

Jiuling,

a state must have an emperor.

Please enthrone His Highness Prince Huai.

Why do you have the imperial jade seal?

It turns out that

you worked as a traitor minister

for Jiuling.

I hid the imperial jade seal secretly.

I did so

not just for Jiuling

but for the peace and prosperity of a state

ruled by a wise emperor supported by good ministers.

Chu Rang was suspicious

and cowardly.

The imperial court had long been in chaos.

If I hadn't worked as a traitor minister

and always noticed Chu Rang's behavior,

many loyal ministers

and good generals

like Lord Cheng

would have been persecuted by him.

If things went on like this,

our state would decay day by day

and couldn't last long.

His Highness Prince Huai is young,

but he surpasses others in intelligence and determination.

So he must be

a wise emperor in the future.

No matter how dangerous it was,

your Ning family

still stuck to your principles

and did the right thing.

Childe Ning,

I admire you.

Childe Ning,

if you didn't spy on Chu Rang,

I wouldn't be able to

revenge my father today.

Thanks for

your help.

Jiurong

is still young.

I'm afraid he can't do it.

So what

shall we do?

Everyone in the world

thinks that emperor

can control the world,

but imperial power

doesn't mean supremacy.

Only those who win the people's support

can be

the emperor.

What about Prince Xian?

In the battle,

he advanced and retreated with the people.

He has support from the people.

In addition,

he is also a son of the emperor's father,

with orthodoxy identity.

He is brave and astute.

So he is the right person for the throne.

Minister Lu?

Brother.

If I don't

tell you something today,

I'm afraid I won't have a chance to say it again.

When I first entered the imperial palace,

I was on duty here.

But I didn't expect that

I'd meet you.

Later, when you passed here

became the happiest moment for me.

It's like a dream.

Thanks for

helping Jiuling.

Jiuling,

do you hate me?

In the murder of my father,

you acted as an accomplice.

I didn't expect that

Chu Rang dispatched me to protect the late emperor

for this purpose.

I had a chance

to save the late emperor,

but I didn't

due to my wrong thought.

So you made the best of the mistake

in recent years.

I have nothing else to give you,

so I compensate you

with my life.

Lu Yunqi,

we're even.

Come on, Liu'er, eat more.

-Take good care of your lady. -This fish has many bones.

Thank you.

Let me try one.

-Sit down. Sit down. -Come on, Chengyu.

I want to eat the lotus root.

Come on. Come on. Come on.

Come on.

How about we toast to

Her Ladyship and His Lordship together?

OK.

OK.

Come on. Come on. Come on.

Come on. Come on. Come on.

For Your Lordship and Your Highness.

Bottom up. Bottom up.

Bottom up.

Bottom up.

Bottom up. Bottom up.

Meixin Wine is really good.

Miss Jun,

you must drink it up.

Drink it up. Drink it up.

Sit down. Sit down. Sit down.

Ignore him.

You shouldn't call her Miss Jun.

She is Her Highness now.

Your Highness.

Jiuling, no wonder

you asked about the capital city

and His Highness Prince Huai.

It turns out that

I have a sister who is a princess.

His Highness Prince Huai

really has a sister who is a princess.

You're not the biological cousin of my lady,

so you don't have one.

You're true.

Chengyu,

in my heart,

we're a family.

No matter whether we have a blood relationship or not,

you're my brother.

OK,

my good sister.

Brother.

Brother. Brother.

Come on. Come on. Come on.

Come on. Come on. Come on.

Jiuling.

Jiuling,

that No. 1 Scholar

comes to you again.

No. 1 Scholar?

Childe Ning comes?

Who?

Who can

come aboveboard

late at night?

Ask him in.

He said he won't come in

but wait for you at the gate.

He has something private to tell you.

Something private. Something private.

He must have an ulterior purpose.

Yeah.

Can I go?

Yes.

OK.

Zan is so generous.

Generous.

Man.

Childe Ning

always

comes too early

or too late.

Not the right moment.

Zan,

don't you go to have a look?

Well,

I trust

Jiuling.

You just said that he came not at the right moment.

In life,

some come early,

while some late.

It's fated,

but I'm different.

I came

just at the right moment.

At the right moment.

At the right moment.

Good.

If so,

you knew her much earlier than Childe Ning.

How can you say that you came just at the right moment?

Drink three cups of wine for punishment.

OK. OK. OK.

Drink three cups of wine for punishment.

At the right moment. At the right moment

drink three cups of wine for punishment.

Honey.

Come on. Come on. Come on.

-Drink it. Drink it. -They're so cute.

I,

I haven't promised you yet.

Back then, you said

you would marry me

if I came back alive.

Shut up.

May you

have a baby soon.

OK. OK. OK.

Have a baby soon.

Come on. Come on. Come on.

Have a baby soon.

May you grow old together.

Thank you.

Have many children and grandchildren.

My respect, Your Highness.

Minister Ning,

if so,

we'll become strange.

Then,

let's call each other as before.

Jiuling.

Childe Ning.

Are you busy making preparations for the enthronement recently?

Yes.

So I can't come to see you until now.

Will

you leave again?

I'll follow Lord Cheng and his families to the North.

You have four engagements before.

This marriage

is finally true.

Yes.

It seems that I should bless you.

I should thank you.

I helped you a lot.

Can I ask you for something in return?

As long as I can give you,

you can ask me for anything.

Let's

play Go again.

Zan,

don't you go to have a look?

Zan,

Miss Jun is your fiancée.

You should go to have a look.

It's reasonable.

Don't be face-saving.

Go now.

If you're really worried,

just go to have a look.

Everybody,

Ning Yunzhao

is good.

However,

compared with me,

he's a little worse.

I agree. I agree.

You're wrong.

In both the capital city and Zezhou,

Childe Ning

is always

the prince charming

for girls.

Yes. Yes. Yes.

He's right.

-Yeah. -Yes.

Back then,

he was jealous.

I saw in the Jinyun Restaurant that

many girls liked Childe Ning,

and he was very popular.

It's very disadvantageous to you.

Yes.

Stop. Stop.

I'm a little dizzy.

I'm going to take some pills to sober myself up.

Your Lordship,

let me fetch them for you.

No need. No need. No need.

I can do it myself.

After thinking about it for long,

you make such a poor excuse.

Here is a drugstore.

We all know where the pills are.

I know it.

The pills

are in the locker in the lobby,

which is not far

from Childe Ning.

So coincident?

Yes, it's a coincidence.

What a coincidence.

-What a coincidence. -Let's first…

Then I'm going to look for the pills.

Go to sober yourself up.

-Let's go on drinking. -Go. Go.

Come on. Come on. Come on.

Come on. Come on. Come on.

Why haven't they come back yet?

Come on. Come on. Come on.

Eat this. Eat this.

-Zan. -Drink wine.

Zan is back.

Pretend to ignore him.

Come on. Come on. Come on.

-Let's drink. Let's drink. -Drink it.

Drink it. Come on. Come on. Come on.

You come back so soon.

Do you find the pills to sober yourself up?

After taking a fresh breath,

I've sobered myself up.

Sit down. Sit down.

Go on eating. Go on eating.

Brother-in-law,

I'll leave tomorrow.

After tomorrow,

I don't know when we'll meet again.

Take good care of my sister.

I will.

Come on, cheers.

Drink it. Drink it.

Let's wish

His Lordship and Her Highness

all the best.

Cheers.

I'm Ning Yunzhao.

May I

have your name?

You're Childe Ning?

It turns out that

you're Miss Jun.

Nice to meet you.

Nice to meet you, Childe Ning.

♫The wind and rain chill the night♫ When placing the Go pieces,

you were decisive and thoughtful

and thought twice.

You were really superior in stratagem, ♫In lonely and cold autumn, the dream lasts long♫

so you didn't beat me by chance.

No need to be modest.

In a few days,

♫Beams of moonlight♫ you defeat me again.

♫shine beside me♫ We always meet some people

and then part from them ♫I'm not afraid of the long and arduous journey♫

when we move forward

in life.

I'm always alone

♫Tormented by lovesickness, we still need to move on♫ in my life.

But, unexpectedly,

I met you

on the night of the Lantern Festival.

♫Beside the window who is dressing up?♫ Everyone,

as the new No. 1 Scholar,

I swear in public.

My engagement with Miss Jun ♫I will always remember♫

is still valid.

♫those old days and beautiful memories♫

♫Don't be afraid to spend years in love and hate♫ I know that

our engagement

makes many people unhappy,

but

I've let it go. ♫The human world is cold♫

So just let it come to an end. ♫where partings and reunions are common♫

I didn't know you would come today, ♫The past story♫

so I didn't make tea,

♫is like a dream in the old times♫ so this pear

is for you to replace the tea.

♫Turning back and looking at each other♫

♫we find that life is pretty long♫

♫Don't forget what I used to be♫

♫Fate is absurd, no one can escape this net♫ The end is the same as before.

♫Lovesickness is like a dress, but it can't bear the coldness of the dust♫ It's enough to have fun.

Do you agree?

Yes.

♫I hope this situation will reverberate, so that people will be eccentric♫

♫In reincarnation, the years can still be reached♫

♫The human world is cold♫ I'm leaving.

♫where partings and reunions are common♫ Take care.

Take care.

♫The past story♫

♫is like a dream in the old times♫

♫Turning back and looking at each other♫

♫we find that life is pretty long♫

♫Don't forget what I used to be♫

Look.

I think today's accounts…

Don't,

don't look at me.

I'm embarrassed.

You're my wife.

No need to feel embarrassed.

When did I become your wife?

You had promised me that day.

I…

Let's talk about it another day.

Don't hold my hand.

Call me honey.

Honey.

You…

You… You…

Others may see it.

Don't worry.

I'm your husband,

and you're my wife.

I have the right to kiss you.

Ministers, get up.

Jiuling,

is the northern manjusaka I promised to show you beautiful?

Yes.

Jiuling,

our future life

won't be always happy.

It'll have some hardships

and setbacks,

but with your company,

I'll face them with pleasure.

♫Swords tell all the scars, and I sigh for fleeting life♫ Ling Jiu!

♫Once we meet, how can I like to be apart?♫ Are you willing to marry me

and travel around the world ♫Walking alone with cold in heart, I deep hide the past♫

with me? ♫I keep love and hatred deep in heart, naive no more♫

Of course I'm willing.

♫My memories roll when I see you again♫ I want to enjoy the mountains,

rivers,

♫I only dare to be gentle in my dream♫ and everything in the world,

spend my remaining years

and have various life

♫This kiss is boiling with your complex♫ with you!

I want to be with you day and night

♫Intimacy has disturbed the stars♫ and cherish you.

Wherever we are,

we won't separate forever!

♫Take art of healing as a weapon to guard the homeland♫

♫I'm not swallowed by sorrow and hatred♫

♫I don't want to regret in troubled times Let me change sincerity for eternity♫

♫Early morning♫

I finally take you to the North.

Do you know

how great the crime

of abducting a princess is?

Then just

punish me

Be serious.

♫Despite the rumors, I firmly believe you♫ Wait a minute.

♫When I meet you again, I fall in love for you♫

♫This kiss is our promise to be together forever, in life or death♫

♫Let's embark this journey for a slim portion of prosperity♫ Compared with you,

high mountains, broad rivers, ♫I'd like to rewrite life, but your looking back breaks my heart♫

I'll give it to you.
