[English subtitles are available]

Where's Miss Tong?

Where is she?

What did you do to her?

Walk!

Behave!

Where are you taking me?

She's fine.

And...

she's been very "cooperative."

I'll have you in exchange for your brother.

Qi Yi?

Why is he here?

This is all on me.

Let him go.

Let him go?

Miss Tong will be dead then.

You!

Qi Da,

to be a king

means that you can't have all you want.

Choice and sacrifice are necessary.

Victory belongs to those who are prepared.

But you are just pathetic.

You!

Don't be so naive next time,

Qi Da.

Let him go.

Prince Yi,

I haven't seen you in a while.

It seems that there are many misunderstandings

between you and me.

What happened three years ago
has nothing to do with me.

What do you mean?

You will see it later.

Since Prince Yi has kept his promise,

I shall let him go.

Why are you doing this?

The army cannot be led without you.

If I was captured,

I believe you would've done the same for me.

Don't feel sorry about this.

I took what you cherished when we were young.

Let me give it back to you.

You've said that

this jade is transparent

and can bring good luck.

Does that black lotus

belong to Qi Yi?

Now I want to return it to you.

Yi,

take care.

Save it.

Off you go.

No time for small talk.

If you didn't fight with me

for the mung bean cakes,

Mother wouldn't have locked me up here.

Brother Da, I didn't mean to fight with you.

You are the child of the First Lady.

Everything is yours.

Get lost!

Brother Da, don't be mad at me.

I can give you this.

You can trade a lot of cakes for that.

It can also bring you good luck.

You filthy rat!

How dare you call me that!

As a man,

you don't even know how to fight.

All you can do is stab people from behind.

You don't deserve the throne.

Go back home and graze the sheep!

Your brother died because of me.

I suggest you stay low-key here.

Bring him down to the water dungeon.

Make him suffer!

Yes.

Walk.

Qi Yi,

why did you provoke the King of the Northland?

Yi,

I've marked the location of the secret passage

in the Zijin water dungeon for you.

Follow the mark and you shall find it.

Go!

Go.

Disrespectful as the Northland is,

they dare to threaten us with Yi's life

and ask for union through marriage.

When has the East City been humiliated like this?

The king of the Northland is so despicable

that he first took Prince Da as a hostage.

Then he took advantage of their brotherhood

and traded Prince Yi for Prince Da.

And now he's asking for lands and money.

He is absolutely

shameless!

What about we lead an army now

and take the Northland down?

Your Highness,

we must show the Northland

what we are capable of.

From my perspective,

we shouldn't rush at the moment.

The grain ships were overturned.

Brother Yi is captured.

There must be someone
who's been pulling the strings behind.

We shall not fall for their tricks

and let someone reap over the fight.

I agree with Brother Xiu.

Besides, they have Brother Yi as a hostage.

Xiu is right.

We need to calm down,

especially at this moment.

I'd love to see

what other tricks

they have!

Father.

Your Majesty.

Are you alright?

Let's go on.

Ten years ago,

the Northland was nothing but a small village,

which was of little significance.

But somehow, over these years,

they've started to stir up trouble.

And now,

they even took Prince Yi hostage

to threaten His Majesty

and ask for Princess Hua Yan, his only daughter,

to marry to the Northland.

He must be aiming at

the five cities alongside as dowry.

But speaking of this Princess,

she's indeed mysterious.

Few people know what she looks like.

It is said that

the princess has been dead for years.

Dead?

It is also rumored that

her face is

breathtakingly beautiful.

Any man who sees her

would be

ravished by her beauty.

So, His Majesty

is reluctant to introduce her to the public.

But these are just rumors.

They could be lies.

Or they might be true.

Lady Qian has made the order.

All the mansions and pavilions

are selecting their candidates.

As for us,

I'll leave it for you to decide.

Why are you crying here?

To be adopted by Lady Qian

as her daughter

should be an honor for you.

She does not want a daughter!

She wants a scapegoat!

Weren't you very close to Prince Yi before?

Why are you so quiet now?

Si Yan!

Si Yan?

Will you?

I will.

Are you serious?

Lady Cui,

I won't regret it.

In our mansion,

you are the only one
who's seen the Princess before.

Whether I could be selected by Lady Qian

is all on you.

What if you are selected?

After this,

can you make it to the Northland?

It must be very dangerous there.

I will do this

no matter what happens.

What's the point of

sticking around Prince Yi?

To get yourself into a mess again?

Now you don't even care about your own life.

I think you are brainwashed

by those love stories.

A Prince fall in love with a maid?

Nonsense!

Bravo.

I can tell that

you are not missing any of those love stories.

Are you jealous of me?

Why would I be jealous of

those unrealistic tales?

A couple that doesn't match

is destined to be doomed.

Even my makeup brush is more reliable than that.

You are right.

But just let me be.

You win.

Isn't it nice to stay at Makeup Service

and polish your skills?

Why do you have to suffer for this?

I enjoy it.

Love is love.

There are no limits.

If I love someone,

I don't care about status.

I shall go for it

even if we are in different dimensions.

You're so weird.

You're saying things that don't make sense again.

You're so annoying.

But

if there are more people

who think in the same way as you,

will that make a difference

to our situation?

Trust me.

That day will come.

I promise.

You're full of big talk.

You should take care of your life first.

Did the sun rise up from the west?

I didn't expect that even you

care about me.

Who cares?

I was hoping that
you could leave soon as you can.

Prince Yi will be saved.

I will be at the top of Makeup Service.

Isn't that a win-win?

Okay, okay.

Then, please show me what you are capable of

and do me a favor.

No.

Why is that?

This cannot be done by makeup.

We need to find another way.

Am I not pretty enough?

Lady Qian,

these are the portraits of the selected maids.

These are all we have here.

Her eyes are not good.

This one looks unhappy.

This...

This one won't do, either.

My lady, what about this one?

Si Yi An?

She is the one!

Yes.

Prince Xiu,

these are what we salvaged from the sunken ships.

They are all rocks and cotton.

No grain is in there at all.

It seems that the accidents of

the granary and ships

could have been planned in advance.

Have you found the damn Manager Ruan?

The servants have been salvaging for days

and found nothing.

Probably he didn't get on the ship.

Being in the position of Cashier Service

can give him the courage to do such a thing.

Yun Li,

bring him to me,

no matter he's dead or alive.

Yes, Your Highness.

A despicable man like him

may lead an indulging life.

Go check Cloud Brothel.

You told me that

Yi made this incense

particularly for me.

You know what?

The smell of it

really makes me feel better

from head to toe.

The chest pain seems to be relieved.

Your Majesty,

set your mind at ease.

Prince Yi will be fine.

He will come back safely.

I hope so.

If I lose Yi,

to whom should I

pass on the throne?

Your Majesty,

I'll go check the medicine.

Mother.

You're back, Bao.

Does Father feel better now?

I've brought the medicine soon as it's done.

He's gone to bed.

You've been busy arranging all the stuff.

You must be tired.

I'm fine.

This is the least that I can do.

Director Hua.

Director Hua,

are these for my father?

These are the memorials to the King over the days.

Leave them to me.

I'll learn how to deal with these

and share Father's burdens.

Bao,

you can't make reckless decisions

when it comes to state affairs.

You need to strike a balance.

If there's anything you don't understand,

ask me any time.

I'll remember that by heart.

I'll go back then.

Leave.

It doesn't make sense.

The system is never wrong.

I took what you cherished when we were young.

I'll give it back to you.

It belongs to Qi Yi.

Greetings, Prince Da.

Come on, present the gifts.

Please.

The person with the white jade box

is the one I should be with.

I did everything right!

It was Prince Da who took the white jade box

to pick up Miss Min.

How are you, Brother Yi?

I am fine.

Please, Da, take care of Miss Min.

Since you can't go there,

I, as your big brother,

will go there for you.

So, the one I should be with

is not Qi Da,

but Qi Yi.

Cheers, guys!

Here's to our King!

Come on!

Down in one!

Your Majesty,

we're all dying to know

who is the person you're partnered with.

Is Qi Yi

really worth that much?

If my partner's identity is exposed,

not only you,

but each one of you here

will be astounded.

Just get ready to become rich!

Great!

Thank you, Your Majesty!

Congratulations, Your Majesty!

Let's drink!

Let me in!

Qi Yi is a hostage from the East City, after all.

Your Majesty, it's okay if you don't treat him
with respect.

But do you have to torture him in the water dungeon?

You almost beat him to death.

If anything happens to him,

you'll never be able to

get those five cities you want.

I planned all this.

I will win this for sure.

He's just a prince.

Keeping him in the water dungeon

is already a nice treatment.

Don't worry!

I won't kill him.

I still need to use him to exchange for more things.

If you want to benefit from this,

stay by my side and behave.

Otherwise,

get lost.

Don't spoil my mood.

I am starting to miss my wolf again.

Why are you here?

Prince Yi,

there's no time to explain.

The wardens at the entrance have been bought.

I've got a horse ready outside the city.

Right now,

the King and his men are all drunk.

We need to run now!

Why would you, a lowly maid,

be here?

Your Highness...

The person standing right before me

should be General Min's only daughter.

Miss Min, you managed to persuade
the King of the Northland

to take me as a hostage, instead of Brother Da,

and played us like fools.

When did you know?

The flowers are blooming.

The sun has risen

above the green branch.

Whose poem is this?

It's so poetic.

Brother Teng wrote it.

Miss Min, have you forgotten?

Why isn't your maid

with you today?

She was late

on the Flower Feast.

My lady,

where have you been?

I was scared to death!

Scared of what?

I am here, aren't I?

Miss Min, have you ever suspected that

it was she that tampered with the First Lady's rein?

Never mind.

I was just asking.

Because of the balsam flowers?

Indeed.

On the Flower Feast,

I gave Miss Min a potted balsam flower.

But she was allergic to balsam.

Brother Teng told me once

that balsam flowers were Miss Min's favorite.

So, you've known who I am since then.

Turns out I am such a lousy actor.

I just find it strange.

Why would you, the honorable Miss Min,

get involved with the Northland?

Why did you capture Brother Da for their King?

Back then,

I offended the King of Northland

because I killed his wolf.

So, he tied me up and took me here.

To save myself,

I had to take advantage of Prince Da.

Why did you hide your identity?

There are four princes in the East City.

If I didn't observe in secret,

how could I know

which one of you is capable of ruling the city

and becoming my husband?

Anyway,

let's leave here first.

The King of Northland is greedy and dishonest.

We need to figure out

if he's a friend or a foe.

Why should I trust you?

So, you displeased the King on purpose

so that he could throw you in here.

Turns out I underestimated you.

Qi Yi,

if it wasn't me who's standing here...

Your Highness,

you'd be in grave danger.

You must have your reasons

for saving me.

We'll get out of here for sure.

But as for how,

you need to do as I say.

Fine.

The Redbud Pass

is not simply easy to defend and hard to attack.

Back then, Brother Teng laid siege to it
for seven days

and still couldn't break in.

However,

there is a secret passage

to the military camp of the Northland

for the delivery of provisions and soldiers.

So, you came to the water dungeon

to find the passage.

Brother Teng almost found it back then.

He should've won the battle at Redbud Pass.

But he died in an accident.

I will take advantage of this opportunity

to find the secret passage.

We need to send troops to the passage

on the wedding night

and take Redbud Pass.

I finally understood

why Si Yan took a fancy to you.

Your Highness,

you should put on the veil,

in case someone finds out the substitution

and report it to Lady Qian.

Who is it?

It's me.

Princess Hua Yan?

I want to marry to the Northland myself.

Yourself?

It's not necessary.

The Northland is in the middle of nowhere.

The sun is scorching there.

You're too delicate

to handle that.

I'll go there for you.

What?

Do you really think of yourself as the princess?

Will you help me or not?

Will you?

I will!

I will, okay?

Will this work?

It sure will.

Really?

Sorry.

I went too hard.

So what if they report it?

Even if Mother sent someone,

it would be too late already.

It was all thanks to you last night.

Otherwise,

I'd still be locked up in my room now.

Your Highness,

thank you for not blaming me.

You're helping me earn my freedom.

Why would I blame you?

However,

you're going to the Northland

for Brother Yi, right?

Although I don't show myself frequently,

I do know well about

the gossip in the Mansion.

I've learned roughly what happened

between you and Brother Yi.

Where are you right now?

Have you held hands yet?

Have you kissed?

Stop it!

Why are you so shy?

You've done everything

other than...the final step, right?

Come on, Your Highness, stop teasing me!

Don't be shy!

He's so handsome!

Look!

Who?

Where?

He looks familiar.

A tea merchant?

But he's carrying a bag of grain.

Clean this up now!

Clean this up!

Hurry!

Are the lost provisions of the East City

hidden in here?

Your Highness!

Come here.

Come here.

Are you also here

to check on the handsome...

Yes.

These foreign merchants seem fishy.

They're tea merchants

but they were loading grain to the containers.

A batch of grain was lost in the East City

and there's a batch of grain showing up here.

This whole thing is strange.

So, I came here to investigate it.

I didn't expect you to notice this, too.

Yeah.

You're right.

We're like-minded.

I am flattered.

What shall we do?

You...

Who are you?

Jack!

Jack!

You're Jack, right?

It's me, Si Yan!

Don't you recognize me?

It really is you!

You're finally back!

Who on earth are you?

Do you even know me?

Tell her to let go of me!

Let go of him!

Apparently, you're the person

that cares about me the most in the world.

Miss Si Yan,

it's my job to care about you.

I am moved.

Thank you.

It's true that I can't touch you!

I forgot that you can't eat it.

Miss Si Yan,

call a time-out.

Please!

Call a time-out!

I can touch you now!

I can finally touch you, Jack!

You've turned into a real person!

You know this handsome man?

That's great!

I've never seen a chef

this handsome before!

Let's talk!

Don't get handsy!

Your Highness,

can you really see him?

Not only can I see him,

but I can also touch him and feel him!

You...

Sorry,

I went too hard.

Why did you hit him so hard?

Well...

He seemed tough.

Who'd have known that he's so weak?

However...

Do you really know him?

I am not sure.

But there's no time for us to think about this.

There must be something wrong with the caravan.

We can't let them leave like that.

I'll send a homing pigeon to Brother Da

and ask him to send people

to take the grain back.

You also feel hopeless, right?

I wish I could

go to the frontline now

and bring Brother Yi back.

Mother.

How's it going?

I am not smart enough.

There are a lot of things I haven't figured out.

Sit.

Take your time.

Nobody is born to

know everything.

The key is to master these thoroughly

and take advantage of them.

What are your thoughts about

the overturned grain boats?

Brother Xiu found stones and cotton

in the bags they managed to salvage.

It means that

it was a man-made incident.

Manager Ruan alone

wasn't able to swap the provisions

without raising attention.

So, there must be someone else

behind this.

Someone else?

Who benefits the most from all this?

On the surface, it's the Northland.

But we haven't gotten to the bottom of this.

So, everything remains unclear.

Bao, you've gotten better at this.

You learned to analyze the pros and cons.

Wars

are bound to be cruel.

Over the years,

His Majesty has been giving us what we want.

He's been good to us.

It's all because the Min family
has been guarding the border,

which is the key to defending ourselves
against the Northland.

Think about it.

If the Northland

is no longer a threat to the East City,

then the Min family,

and us two...

How can we protect ourselves anymore?

Mother,

Brother Da and Brother Yi...

Bao,

have some soup while it's hot.

To make sure you can concentrate on the memorials,

I've demolished the hamster house.

Bao,

you won't hate me for it, will you?

I...

I understand why you did it, Mother.

They've got the same eyes

and nose.

Clearly, you are Jack!

Why do you pretend that you don't know me?

Jack!

Stop calling me Jack!

I am just a chef.

Stop acting!

There's no one else here.

Tell me!

Why did you disappear out of the blue?

Why did you come back as a chef?

Why can I touch you now?

Couldn't I be touched before?

What was I, then?

A ghost?

Or an imaginary person?

You used to be my AI Butler.

Although, it may sound

funny right now.

Jack is your butler.

I am just a chef.

How could you be a chef?

I used to teach you how to eat food.

You're my AI butler who's got

no pulse, no conscience,

no organs,

and nags a lot.

Maybe it's you that has no pulse!

Well...

Have some congee first.

Did you make this for me?

Tastes good.
