(Bingzhou Government Office)

Commandant Li! Commandant Li!

Hold on!

Greetings, Commandant Li.

Greetings, Mr. Hu.

Do you have a minute?

A word, please.

What can I help you with?

God of Local Land’s Birthday

is arriving soon.

I was hoping to hold a game

to celebrate it with the civilians,

but

there’s not enough money.

My hands are tied.

Commandant Li,

you don’t know

how much I envy you.

I mean,

when you were in the mountain,

you had quite a reputation

and amassed a fortune.

Later,

you accepted the court’s amnesty

and started to

climb up the ladder steadily.

You’re covered in glory!

Mr. Hu,

that’s not entirely accurate.

I robbed the rich to help the poor.

Civilians were never my targets.

True.

And I’ve always donated grains to them

ever since I became an official.

Yes.

Everyone in Bingzhou

knows about our family’s generosity.

Commandant Li,

I admire you for always putting the people first.

I don’t think

anyone else in the city

has the kind of money

and prestige

to hold such a game.

Thanks, Commandant Li.

I’ll entrust the rest to you.

Mr. Hu...

- Good day. - Hey, Mr. Hu...

Wait, Mr. Hu!

Mr. Hu!

I’m sorry. My bad.

Mr. Hu!

(Bingzhou Government Office)

Mr. Hu!

Sachets and pendants!

Mr. Hu!

Father,

did Hu Yiliang force this thing on you?

No one could force me to do anything.

Am I that spineless to you?

I’m only taking this job

for the sake of our family.

With Princess’s coming,

we’ve been on the rise.

Many have had their eyes on us

to catch us in the act

if we make any mistakes.

So I’m thinking

we can take this chance

to do something good for the public

to stop those criticisms.

Why is it us again

to pay for this kind of thing?

I said

it’s for the best of our family!

But Uncle Li...

Yes?

Little money is left

in reserve

after the grand wedding.

If we’re to sponsor

this game on our own,

we’ll have to pawn some properties

as an expedient.

No way!

Master,

everything costs money in case you don’t know.

Look,

to prepare for this game,

we’ll have to pay for clothes and meals,

utensils and whatnot.

All the expenses

will come from our pocket.

A game or two like this

wouldn’t be too big

a financial burden to us before,

but now is different.

With a new member in our family

and so much money pouring out,

we’ll have to

tighten our belt.

Mother...

I don’t think a festive game

would be too costly.

Uh...

Father.

Yes?

Were all the celebrations in town

sponsored by us before?

There were a few.

Did the public say nice things about you afterwards?

Well...

All they knew was the Li Family had money to burn.

Prefect took all the credits

of being fair and clean-handed

and putting people first.

Hadn’t you tricked me into accepting the amnesty,

I wouldn’t have been held back

by that old fox all the time!

You’re to blame!

Amnesty?

Speaking of that,

it is

quite a long story.

Mr. Hu,

bandits in the mountain are too fierce

to be captured at the moment.

And there are hundreds of casualties

on our side

due to their traps and ambush.

The rest had no other choice

but to retreat to the foot.

Go on and call for reinforcements!

Yes, sir!

(To Hu Yiliang)

What are you doing here?

To talk to you secretly, Mr. Hu.

Talk to me?

About what exactly?

After sending up additional troops four times,

your people still haven’t got halfway.

You’re stuck, aren’t you?

Your resources up there

are limited, aren’t they?

If the battle drags on,

it’s only a matter of time before you surrender.

Yes, and so what?

Even if you take over this mountain,

my father and I are capable enough

to occupy a new one and start over.

What game are you playing

in the middle of the night?

I’m here to offer you a deal,

Mr. Hu.

At that time,

he and Hu Yiliang

put on a show together.

That he pretended

to be held hostage.

In order to save him,

I had to accept the court’s amnesty.

Father,

time has proved

that I made the right decision.

You could be a lion in the mountain,

but serving the court

is to build a better future for our family.

- You... - Qian is right.

He’s long-sighted

and ambitious.

It would’ve been a waste of his talent

being holed up in the mountain.

It is what it is now.

The past doesn’t matter.

What matters is

that we must pay

for this game.

Master.

Yes?

Master!

What?

Calm down. Don’t be mad.

I believe

there is one way.

I mean,

we’re out of money,

but Princess came

with a handsome amount of dowries.

You...

Besides,

we’re all family now

and we’re in this together.

She can’t sit this one out.

Right?

Mother!

Enough!

How could you

have your eyes on her dowries?

Father,

I’m willing to help with what I have.

You...

- Baoning... - That’d be great!

If words get out about this,

I, Li Changqing, would be a laughing stock!

Indeed!

She’s marrying down to me already.

We can’t afford to give others

more leverage against us.

Fine. Alright.

I’ve heard enough

about your “can’t” and “no”.

Alright.

Just go ahead

and sell our stuff to look good.

Before we go there,

I think we have another option.

What is it, Your Grace?

I’m all ears.

Father, you’ve been here for decades

and you must be familiar with the local merchants.

Rich families and businessmen

into charity can be found

all over the state.

Father,

all I need is a list of merchants

that you think are dependable in town.

And I’ll go from there.

We can give it a try.

It’s cold at night.

Don’t get sick.

So,

is the list detailed enough?

If not,

I can have men redo it.

It has everything

I need.

You can finally take a few days off from work.

Go get some rest.

I’ll take care of this business.

You’re cleaning up the mess

for my family.

As your husband and a son,

I can’t sit on my hands.

Your deficit

is partly because of me.

Had I known our wedding would cost so much,

we shouldn’t have...

I don’t know how I can ever repay you

since the day you married me.

The wedding expense

is really nothing.

It’s late. Go to bed.

Don’t distract me.

No.

I want to be here with you.

I can’t read like this.

Then don’t.

I’ll tell you everything in it.

I’m familiar

with all those names.

What do you need to know?

I can tell you.

As crafty as Hu Yiliang is,

he’s trying to help the people.

Father takes this job from him

only to improve our family’s image

at the cost of money

after our high-profile

and extravagant wedding ceremony.

Both of their intentions are justified.

The problem is who will foot the bill.

Those in the local business circle

with similar intentions are many.

All they need is a chance.

And we may have the right one for them.

So you’re going through the list

to select the right one.

You’re a genius.

I can’t let you do all the work alone.

I’ll

make it easy for you.

(Dong Shanhu)

This garden has been long abandoned.

It’s unprofitable.

I have other properties.

We can skip this wasteland.

(Dong Shanhu) I will

take this garden.

Thank you, Miss Dong!

Good day, Miss Dong.

You have a sharp eye, Miss,

that you got this garden

at less than half of the usual price.

Have eyes on the future

and wait for opportunities to come.

Speaking of which,

one is coming our way.

(Li’s Mansion)

Greetings, Your Grace.

Please rise.

We aren’t in the capital.

Courtesies are unnecessary.

I’ve long heard

that Miss Dong in Bingzhou

is quite a businesswoman.

I’m glad to finally meet you.

Don’t take

their jokes seriously.

Send in everything.

They’re...?

Just some fruits and vegetables.

Nothing valuable,

but fresh.

I hope you don’t mind.

They aren’t

in season yet, are they?

Greenhouses are warm enough

for them to grow.

We’ve had a good year,

so I’m sharing the fresh fruits and vegetables with everyone.

Is it easy to preserve them?

I’d like to have some delivered to the palace.

The longer they travel,

the less fresh they taste.

You can sell them here

and even in the capital.

Maybe your fruits and vegetables will be good enough

to enter the palace.

You’re wise, Your Grace.

I had the same idea,

but I barely had

any contacts inside.

If it weren’t for Commander Li,

I wouldn’t

even get to

see you here.

If you’re into this business,

I can pull some strings.

That’d be much appreciated.

Darling,

how much do you know about Dong Shanhu?

I seldom cross paths with merchants,

but I’ve heard about her.

It’s said that she could use an abacus at three,

worked the counter and made inventories at seven

and took over the shop before thirteen.

Now, she even has branches in the capital.

Her business covers almost everything

in Jinxi.

Remember that face-washing cream

you asked me to buy for Mother?

Her shop made it.

Girls here are really something.

Jinxi is relatively free.

It’s common for women to do business here.

A woman with her wealth and impact

must’ve seen tons of big shots.

I don’t even make the cut.

You’re a well-known princess.

Who wouldn’t want to meet you?

Cut it out. Stop joking.

It was too soon to bring up

the game to her.

I’ll sound her out on it

when I go to her shop later.

Good call.

(Unifon)

Pendants!

Take a look!

(Unifon)

Go and

- recalculate last month’s gross margin. - Welcome. Feel free to look around.

Welcome, Your Grace!

Thanks.

Welcome, Your Grace!

Rise, all of you.

I dropped by and recognized your shop,

so I came in to have a look.

Serve tea to Her Grace.

Yes.

This way, please, Your Grace.

Feel free to look around.

Why are

all your staff members female?

Your Grace,

those girls

are either homeless

or war orphans.

I gave them jobs

to help them support themselves

instead of depending on their future husbands.

Merchants have always been seen as arrogant,

but, Miss Dong,

you’re noble and talented.

And you set a good example for the rest.

Thanks for your compliment, Your Grace.

There’s nothing much I can do,

but from now on, whatever the Li Family needs

that your shop can provide,

we’ll all purchase it from you.

That’s the least I can do

for those girls.

Thank you, Your Grace.

If you need my help in the future,

all you need is to ask.

Actually, there’s something now.

Do you know we have God of Local Land’s Birthday coming at the end of this month?

Yes.

I know.

(Still Water Runs Deep)

Excellent!

Well done!

Your Grace,

you lifted us out of the crisis.

Our family owes you a great deal.

Happy to help, Father.

Your problem is also mine.

Uncle Li.

Yes?

Miss Dong is from a rich business family.

She’s more calculated

and sharper

than most men in this circle.

Taking advantage of her

is almost impossible.

Your Grace,

I suggest

you tread carefully.

Don’t ruin the Li Family’s reputation

for some short-term gains.

You’re worrying too much, Miss Gao.

She wants something in return of course

and so do we.

She can increase public awareness of her brand

and our family can actually

do something for the people.

It’s win-win. Isn’t that great?

I can’t agree more, Your Grace.

Even I can’t do better than that.

Miss Dong is impressive.

Everything, big and small,

is well-prepared

and all under her control.

I thought Cuju was only popular in the capital,

but it’s also well-received in Bingzhou.

Look, Your Grace.

Everyone on the red team

is Commandery Prince’s comrade in the army.

While the black one is a team of skilled civilians.

Go, go, go!

Come on!

There wouldn’t be such a big crowd

without his comrades,

and Miss Dong

wouldn’t have sponsored the game.

Yes, of course.

He always does things for you silently.

You should be nicer to him in return.

Are you on his side now?

Did he buy you over?

Good!

Let’s go!

Your Grace,

how do you like today’s game?

You must’ve done a lot of work.

Soldiers and civilians are having fun together

in this big game.

Every one, high and low, in Bingzhou

must be praising you for it.

I’d rather they don’t.

What they think doesn’t matter.

What matters is your satisfaction.

What an irony!

I thought

you’d become the new Mrs. Li,

but heaven played a cruel joke

that someone else took your spot.

Thanks for your concern, Madam Zhuang.

You’d better watch

what you say.

Where’s that show-off?

Madam He isn’t into such games.

She claimed to be sick days ago.

Uncle Li knew her too well

and let her be.

I bet she didn’t want to be embarrassed.

She failed to raise her daughter well.

Of course others would talk behind her back.

Li Dongzhi is about my daughter’s age.

Her marriage

is going to be a big problem.

Good!

Young Master says

this is for you, Your Grace.

Over here! Over here!

Wait!

My ball!

Baoning, am I your hero?

Here!

Here!

Come on, Li Qian!

Let’s go!

Qingke, get me the stationery.

I’m writing back to him.

Yes.

You and Commander Li

are so sweet.

Nice!

Pass the ball!

Shoot!

Goal!

Nice shot!

Good job, Young Master!

Well done!

(Red Team Three Goals)

What’s the sentence

for hitting on a princess?

That’s to amuse you in case you get bored.

Xiaoman.

Sub by WeTV & Ripped by skysoultan ♔ Follow @skysoultan on Instagram ♔

How could I get bored with such a good game?

I’m curious about the result.

Are you able to win, darling?

Jin Xiao!

We need more practice.

Boys,

show everything you’ve got!

We can’t afford to lose in public!

Her Grace has promised

handsome rewards

if we win!

Great!

Since this is a game for everyone,

I’d like to play with the others, too.

Go get them!

Goal!

(Black Team Four Goals) Good!

(Black Team Five Goals)

Yes!

Good job!

I hate

that you fight against me over everything.

I’ve never done so.

I only get

what I deserve.

Catch this!

You deserve it?

What’s taken from the others

will have to be returned.

If it’s not yours in the first place,

it’ll never be.

Boys,

give it your all!

Don’t make

Xuanjia Battalion look weak in front of everyone!

Catch it!

Come on!

Go!

Go, go, go!

(Red Team Six Goals)

Yes!

Bravo!

Are Young Master Zhao and Her Grace...?

Grand Empress Dowager

had betrothed Her Grace

to him.

Just when they were about to get married,

something happened

and ended their engagement.

Commander Li is a rare catch,

but he’s still no match

for the one with noble birth.

Was Her Grace married down

to the Li Family

because His Majesty no longer favored her?

Was that why

her previous engagement got canceled?

Madam Zhuang’s eldest brother-in-law is

Chief Councilor Wang’s favorite student.

Ladies and their daughters here

wouldn’t dare to offend her.

Who’d know

Her Grace is of loose morals

that she sits and does nothing

while Young Master Zhao crosses the line?

- Qian... - Madam Zhuang,

it’s well-known

in Mu’an

that Her Grace means everything to Grand Empress Dowager.

If she even hears one word

that you said,

the Zhuang Family will be doomed!

Madam Zhuang,

from now on,

be cautious with your words and actions.

And stop spreading rumors.

How could this happen?

I only took a sick leave for one day

yet she stirred up much trouble!

She being married down to us

doesn’t mean she can walk all over us!

What’s worse,

word on the street is

she and Young Master Zhao

have something going on behind our back.

She might not care about her name,

but we care about ours!

Calm down, Madam.

They’re just rumors.

Don’t take them seriously.

Outsiders

are saying such vicious words

simply out of jealousy.

Her Grace

is pure and noble.

I don’t think

she’d ever put the Li Family in harm’s way.

There is no fire without smoke.

Was she as upright as she said,

would others still talk behind her back?

May I ask,

what’s setting you off, Mother?

Your Grace,

please don’t blame her.

She’s simply misled

by those rumors.

You know how outsiders

like to gossip.

It’s their biggest joy,

am I right?

Just so you know,

Madam and I

are inclined to trust you.

I wonder

what kind of rumor

would shoot up Mother’s disbelief in me.

Your Grace,

a woman should follow the man she marries.

In that spirit, however noble you were,

as Li Qian’s wife,

you should abide by our family rules.

Scandals involving you and another man

are intolerable!

Madam,

Her Grace’s image can’t be tarnished!

I’m tarnishing it?

Your princess

took that man’s love token in broad daylight.

Stop defending her!

What love token?

Everyone in the mansion is talking about it.

Stop denying it!

I didn’t take that so-called love token.

Search my place if you don’t believe me.

Sure. You think I wouldn’t dare?

Come with me to the West Courtyard!

Madam,

think twice.

Uncle Li and Qian will be mad

if they find out about this.

Why should I care how they’ll feel?

What about my feelings?

Everyone is laughing at me right now,

saying we let our son

marry a slut on a pedestal!

Madam...

It’s fine.

Look, Madam.

Why is Young Master Zhao’s pendant

in this room?

Shut up!

It’s not your place

to ask Her Grace!

What else do you have to say

in front of the evidence?

This jade pendant

has been with me since I was little.

I’m giving it to you

as your wedding gift.

I... I can’t take it.

It’s too valuable.

Your Grace!

Qingke...

Your Grace!

Hey...

Zhao... Zhao Xiao...

There are a lot of people

in our chamber.

How dare you rifle through

Her Grace’s jewelry case!

Qian, you don’t know what happened!

Nanny Tian

just found a love token in the room

that someone else gave your wife.

You didn’t know that, did you?

This jade pendant

is Young Master Zhao’s wedding gift

to us.

Baoning didn’t mean to take it,

but I asked her to

for an auspicious start.

Is that a problem?

Yes!

- Uh... - Look at you

and your slanderous remarks!

She didn’t take them to heart

out of leniency.

But, Mother,

if she decided to

punish you for slander,

even Father couldn’t help you out.

I didn’t mean to do that.

I... I had such speculation

because those servants kept...

We’re on the rise and in others’ way.

To get rid of us,

they keep making up stories

and churning the waters.

Mother,

do you really want some hearsay

to split us up?

Qian,

I tried to talk Madam out of it.

Now, you know the truth.

Do not

pull a stunt like this again.

My wife is tired.

Qingke,

show Madam out for us.

Yes.

And,

from now on,

no one

shall set foot in the West Courtyard again

without Baoning’s permission.

Try this.

Take a bite.

Have some tea.

Behold!

Look at this brush.

See?

Here’s another one.

Talk to me or I’m leaving.

I said I’m going!

I’m sorry, darling.

I didn’t know a pendant

would lead to such a mess.

I never intended to take it,

but Zhao Xiao

didn’t give me any time.

He tossed it to me and left.

Then I thought

I’d return it to him later,

but I guess I forgot about it.

Nothing happened between us, I swear.

I know.

Then why are you still mad?

Because I have a right to.

I’m mad because you didn’t tell me about it.

That pendant was unimportant

and easy to forget.

You forgot about it?

I’m glad you did.

Are we good now?

I’m still mad.

Why?

I’m mad at myself

for all that you’ve suffered

because of my negligence.

All I need is your trust anyway.

(Yongqing State)

(Respect Etiquette and Loyalty)

Your Highness.

All the troops and everything else are ready.

Pass my order.

We’ll march in two days!

Your Highness,

with His Majesty’s belief in peace

and the upcoming signing of the treaty,

sending troops now

would make His Majesty...

He’s too sick in bed

to control me.

From now on, I’m the one in charge.

Yongqing is under my reign.

Besides,

my father intended to sign the treaty, not me.

This time,

I’ll have Li Qian pay double

for humiliating me!

(Li’s Mansion) Bad news, Master!

(Li’s Mansion) It’s the border!

Everyone is saying

that we stole Master’s military report.

Just as I expected.

Tell me where the report is,

or I’ll throw you all

into prison!

Uncle Li,

they’ve been your servants for years

without any lapse.

Someone else

might be responsible for the theft.

If not them,

who else could it be?

Even if they were thieves,

they’d steal

money and valuable objects.

None of them could read.

What would they

need a military report for?

Miss Gao is right.

We’re innocent!

Master, we’ve been with you for years.

We’ve been serving your family since our parents’ generation.

We’d never betray you!

Please trust us!

Have you seen

anyone suspicious

in the mansion lately?

Her Grace was often seen

in the study earlier to prepare for God of Local Land’s Birthday.

It has never happened before.

What are the odds that as soon as she came,

the military report went missing?

Uncle Li,

Bingzhou is at the forefront against Yongqing.

With Her Grace’s bond

with the imperial family

and His Majesty’s suspicious nature,

it is possible

that he has someone he knows

to oversee local officials’ work,

especially military affairs.

Miss Gao,

I advise you to think

before you speak.

Your Grace.

What brings you here?

If I showed up any later,

I’d be called a thief.

Your Grace,

I didn’t mean to suspect you,

but,

files on Uncle Li’s table

are all classified.

If they went missing

and fell into the wrong hands,

there’d be dire consequences.

I figured

you were in his study

a lot earlier

for God of Local Land’s Birthday,

which made me

start to think.

Please don’t mistake me.

I don’t mean you did it.

Father,

what’s your take on this incident?

There are moles in our house.

They must be dug out.

Speaking of moles,

it’s time to

get down to some serious business.

Father, may I draw your attention

to the situation at home?

What are you talking about?

Father, had it occurred to you

that how words

you just said in the study

got into my ears even before you left?

Is Liu Da at the stable here?

Yes.

I’m here.

Liu Da, 22 years old,

five years of service here

as the chief of the stable,

responsible for feeding and cleaning horses.

You’re limited to the gatehouse

and the stable unless otherwise requested.

Is that correct?

Yes... that is correct.

On April 18, when Master and Madam

went to Falan Temple to pray during the fair,

you sneaked into the inner court at a quarter past seven

and hit on the cleaner, Jiaoxing,

in the yard

for a few minutes without permission.

At a quarter past one in the afternoon

on April 25, Chunni at the garden house...

(Li’s Mansion)

Your Grace, that’d be all.

What... what’s the point?

Father, Mother

and everyone else

heard what Qingke just read.

As the saying goes,

state and family are run by rules.

Nothing can be accomplished without norms or standards.

Think of home as a mini court.

Everyone shall abide by the law.

Whether you’re a groom,

a cleaner

or a chef,

fulfill your duties accordingly

and adhere strictly to the family rules.

The theft in Father’s study is an alert.

All the servants

had access to that place.

Who should be responsible for the theft?

That’s why rules must be made clear

in the beginning.

If anything goes wrong, we go straight to those in charge.

When they understand

how much is at stake,

they’ll keep their people in line

spontaneously.

Mother trusted Miss Gao

and had her

take care of everything at home

before I came.

All the servants

were also assigned by her.

But without necessary rules

and order,

anyone can come and go

inside the mansion freely.

What do you have to say about that,

Miss Gao?

Nothing went wrong

before Your Grace

joined this family.

Master and Madam trusted me

and gave me the power.

What are you implying, Your Grace?

Are you blaming me

or Master and Madam

who appointed me?

Don’t try to shift the blame on me,

Miss Gao.

Their trust

doesn’t exonerate you

from negligence.

But, at this point,

a solution

is better than pointing fingers.

As you know,

we can’t tell any outsiders

or the local authority that we lost classified files.

Or if the government looks into it,

they’ll

have Father take full responsibility.

That cannot happen!

All of you

keep your mouths shut, you hear?

If you breathe a word to others,

I’ll sell

your whole family!

He Cuihua, stop blaming others!

My files were stolen at home.

How did you do your job?

Why did you blame me again, Li Changqing?

Didn’t you tell me

that Miaorong is educated and smart

and I should let her take charge?

I...

Now what? Something happened

that would cost you your job

and you started to yell at me?

Why didn’t you watch your things closely?

- That’s enough. - Weren’t you in charge of...?

Miaorong was the one...

Father, Mother,

don’t worry too much.

If you trust me,

give me three days

and I will

give you an answer.

Sure.

(Anyuan Gate)

(Li Dongzhi)

Have a look!

Take a look!

Have a look!

What about this one?

Look at that young man.

He’s handsome!

- Excuse me. - He is, indeed!

I’d like this one, too.

Make it cheaper.

And this one.

Cheaper, please.

- What did you do? - Look at you!

You’re clumsy.

Apologize to that young man now.

No need.

I’m not a man,

but a girl just like you two.

She...

She’s wearing men’s robe.

I wish she was a man.

I know.

She’s good-looking!

I’ve been away for too long.

I agree.

Mother will talk my ear off for sure.

When will we meet a real man?

(Li’s Mansion)

You bastards!

Are you trying to kill me?

(Feelings Grow) Take her away!

Shut up!

Stop!

What are you doing?

There you are!

Nanny!

Save me, please!

All these years,

I’ve been

(Feelings Grow) diligent and loyal to your family,

but Princess is getting rid of me

as soon as she came.

How dare you talk nonsense

and twist facts!

You know better than anyone

why Her Grace is punishing you.

Nanny, stand up.

Dongzhi!

Welcome home, Dongzhi!

Miaorong,

what’s going on?

Dongzhi,

meet your sister-in-law,

Commandery Princess Jia’nan.

Nice to meet you.

Your brother told me a lot about you.

May I call you Dongdong?

That’s my nanny.

May I ask what she did

that you’re being so cruel to her?

- She... - Dongzhi,

don’t be so rude

to Her Grace.

She’s a princess.

Your parents

must obey her,

not to mention your brother.

She can say

and do whatever she wants.

You cannot stand in her way, understand?

Don’t offend her

for a nanny.

If your brother knows,

he’ll call you disrespectful.

Being a princess

doesn’t mean you can abuse your power

and kill innocent people.

Innocent or not,

let’s find out together.

Don’t jump to the conclusion yet.

Father,

my investigation into the theft

in your study earlier

has shown a preliminary result.

All the evidence

leads to Nanny Tian.

I didn’t do it! I’m innocent!

She’s been with us for decades.

Why would she go into my study

to steal the report?

Qingke.

Gambling house?

Nanny Tian is a heavy gambler

and a regular there.

As a maid,

her monthly salary is no more than five taels of silver.

But those records in your hands

are covered with 50 and 100 taels.

Nanny Tian,

where is all that money from?

I went there to gamble

on my day off occasionally.

You can’t pin the theft on me

just because I got lucky

and won money.

Nanny Tian,

you can’t read or calculate.

Don’t make things up.

Gambling houses are to rip gamblers off.

An experienced and skilled one

might not come out with money to go home.

How could you, a housemaid,

rake in a fortune worth more than

your entire life’s earnings

in a few hours on your day off?

You’d better confess now.

It’s possible

that she was in luck

and on a winning streak.

Right.

It might be unfair

to convict her of theft

based on a few slips.

After all,

she’s Dongdong’s nanny

and she’s old.

If others learn about this,

they’ll call us inhumane.

Let me

take it from here

for the sake of Princess’s name.

Mother,

Father and our family’s future are on the line.

Would you rather lose more for less?

Your Grace, is there any hard evidence

to prove that Nanny Tian is guilty?

Xiaoman, send the witness in.

Yes.
