"The Moon Will Remember" Singer: Guo Jing - Lyrics: Tang Tian - Melody: Wei Guobin

♫ I want to ask the distant moon if that is you ♫

♫ Wearing rainbow colored clothes, dancing under the falling flowers, and accompanying me through the years ♫

♫ Is that you? But the moon won't speak ♫

♫ The shadows in pairs makes a line of a love poem ♫

♫ Protect my little light so it doesn't drift during the whirlwind ♫

♫ There is light in the dark and a wide umbrella in the rain ♫

♫ When the rims of my eyes become red, you hold out your hands to me ♫

♫ My tears then blossom in your palms ♫

♫ Protecting my slight stubbornness and accompanying me to watch the moon ♫

♫ It will remember how we looked shoulder to shoulder ♫

♫ Even with the onslaught of time and hardships caught on the corners of our eyes ♫

♫ It would still be the sweetness you'd given me ♫

[Ni Chang]

[Episode 38]

What kind of person was that?

Yuan Xiang, what took you so long?

- Where did you go? Ni Chang was here looking for you and she just left.

Auntie, look at my outfit! Don't even mention it. I'm so furious!

When I just came out from Wang Yuan's home, I ran into a hawker selling sauces.

He clearly slipped and knocked over his sauces.

He insisted that I tripped him and even demanded that I compensate him.

I didn't ask him to pay for my dress.

He insisted on waiting for the feudal officials who were patrolling the street.

But then, he turned and ran away.

Such a waste of time!

Did Ni Chang say something?

- Why don't I try to catch up with her now? - No need, no need, no need.

She's already gone off as she still has other plans.

Hurry and go wash it!

All right. I'll go to wash it.

Yuan Xiang?

Yuan Xiang!

Yuan Xiang. Yuan—

Yan Wenxiu?

You won't be able to escape.

Your Prince is still in his manor.

This time, it's impossible for anyone to rescue you.

Let go of me! Let go—

Let me give you a piece of advice.

Be good and come with me!

Otherwise, you won't be able to avoid some suffering to your flesh and skin.

- Catch her! - Yes.

Quick!

Follow me!

Let's go!

- After them! - Stop right there!

Stop running!

- There! - Don't move!

Stand still

Stop running!

Stop!

Stop!

Let's stop running! You should leave quickly.

I won't leave you.

Older Sister!

Chase them! Quickly!

Stop!

Ni'er, I can't run any more! You should keep on going.

- I'll stop them. - No! I won't leave you.

Let's go!

Over there!

Stop running!

You have no place to go!

Ni Chang, you also can't go anywhere now.

Come back with me right now!

I'll appeal to Lord Yuan to show you mercy.

He won't make things difficult for you.

It's not something you would do.

If I go with you now, I'll become a tool which Yuan Daocheng can use to pin down Prince Luo.

- I won't let you have that luck! - Stop the crap!

- Don't come any closer! - Ni Chang, don't be impulsive!

♫ Departures never end in life ♫

♫ I hope to end your tears, make you smile, and be daring without guilt ♫

Older Brother,

I won't leave you alone this time.

Even if we end up dead,

we'll die together!

♫ So that my whole life will be passionate ♫

♫ To handle the impermanence, how far must I look into the distance ♫

♫ To be able to stay by your side ♫

♫ My only wish is to live my life with my love ♫

♫ Even if the fireworks scatter in the end ♫

♫ I'll never regret the long suffering ♫

♫ How much more courage must I have, to walk toward you? ♫

♫ My only wish is to live up to your fate ♫

♫ And never let down the little light you left me ♫

Boss Yan, Lord Yuan wanted Ni Chang as a hostage.

However, she's jumped off the cliff now.

What should we do if Lord Yuan blames us?

What are you afraid of?

What's done is done!

I'll explain this to Lord Yuan myself.

She wasn't anything but just a pawn.

who died cleanly without any traces.

This carriage...

[Open Reflection Tea House]

Old fogey, you're still living a fast life.

I ran errands for you, but I suffered for no reason.

I'll be a thief again.

I'm going back to empty your house for you now.

Before I leave, I also must make enough money.

Even if you find out, it'll still scare you good!

Where should I start?

[Open Reflection Tea House]

My Lord, it looks like today's a surprise, but not dangerous.

I'll be going home now.

You've worked hard, Lord Gao.

Lord Yuan,

Ni Chang fell off the cliff and can't be found.

Prince Luo has withdrawn his men who were dispatched to surround the manors,

but I don't know why there's still someone monitoring Lord Gao's manor.

Ni Chang fell off the cliff.

Ouyang Ziyu probably doesn't know about this.

A hidden guard's lurking outside Lord Gao's manor.

- A'Mo. - Here.

Stop Lord Gao and bring him back to my manor.

- Don't let him suspect anything. - Yes.

- Back to the manor! - Yes.

Lord Gao, Lord Yuan is waiting in the Grand Hall for you.

Damn pillar!

- Lord Yuan— - It's fine!

The spy just came back to report that there's a hidden guard at your manor.

You should hide here from the limelight for a bit.

Go back later in the evening.

Thanks to your meticulous thoughtfulness and for being one step ahead.

Otherwise, we'll have been caught in Ouyang Ziyu's trap.

Ni Chang is definitely Ouyang Ziyu's weakness.

This is worth celebrating.

Lord Yuan, you're right.

Now that the woman from the Fragrant Herb Hall is dead,

there's no one who can help Ouyang Ziyu from behind the scenes.

When the time comes, we'll have to properly take care of...

His Highness, Prince Luo.

My Lord, don't worry! The private ledger for the Bureau of Affairs

has already been destroyed by me.

Even if there were immortals here now,

they still couldn't do anything to us.

You must handle your secret passage well.

Don't leave any discriminating evidence!

Do I need you to remind me?

I've already taken care of it earlier.

There's not a single trace of it.

This is over! Lord Gao, you've contributed a great achievement.

Thank you for your compliment.

This time, after we get rid of Ouyang Ziyu, then the Bureau of Affairs

will be Lord Yuan's again.

Well said!

Lord Gao, it's time for you to be on your way, too.

On my way?

Where?

Only the mouths of dead people stay closed.

A'Mo.

My Lord.

How's the progress?

I've taken care of Gao Xuan's carriage and driver altogether.

You may retreat.

Young Master, you haven't slept for the whole night already.

Why don't... you rest a little?

No need for you to care for me.

Don't talk more than you need to!

You may withdraw.

Young Master! Young Master!

Bad news!

That Gao Xuan... Gao Xuan's dead!

What did you say?

I clearly saw him the day before yesterday.

It's true, Young Master! It was just this morning.

Gao Xuan was found in the city moat.

The coroner has already examined the body and said he drowned.

- It was suicide! - That's impossible.

That insatiable old b**tard would want to live until a hundred.

He must've been harmed by someone.

Harmed by someone?

Young Master, what you say is logical.

That old ignorant man has been tyrannical and committed many evil deeds all these years.

He's offended so many people, so perhaps someone was angered enough to do this.

No.

No.

This matter definitely isn't that simple.

My Second Uncle died suspiciously.

And then Gao Xuan died from drowning.

There must be a reason.

[Gao Manor]

Search! Don't move!

What are you doing?

[Good Deed Will Last Forever]

Search the whole place for me!

Don't miss anything suspicious!

- Lock up and interrogate everyone in the manor, one by one! - Yes.

The few of you, come with me!

You two, go over there.

Hurry!

[Gao's Supreme and Upright Conduct]

Your Highness, we've already searched the entire manor's front yard.

In Gao Xuan's study's secret cabinet, we only found some tribute items and porcelain.

Were there any accounting or record books?

Your Highness, we didn't discover any.

[Gao's Supreme and Upright Conduct]

Your Highness, the secret passage was buried, so we're currently digging it out.

Even if it was buried, as long as there was a secret passage,

- we can definitely find evidence. - Yes.

Your Highness, the secret passage has been cleared.

Your Highness, I'm afraid we came too late.

I heard Lord Yuan is resigning from your post.

Is this true?

It is true.

I've already submitted a request to His Majesty for a resignation.

After next month's test, there'll be someone to take over.

I should've come bid farewell to Your Highness, Princess, earlier;

however, there have been many trivial matters recently.

I hope for Your Highness, Princess' understanding.

I only think this is Lord Yuan's time to provide service.

Isn't resigning now a pity?

That's a high praise, Your Highness, Princess.

It's just that there have been many troubles recently.

I'm filled with recollection.

I feel even more clearly that my ability is too shallow for the scope of this job.

I can only hope that after resigning and traveling, I can improve upon myself,

and then provide service for the court once again.

Lord Yuan, you're too humble.

You've supervised the Bureau of Affairs for many years.

You're involved in many matters.

Speaking of this joint-trade this time,

there is one unfinished matter that still requires Lord Yuan's attention.

Prince Luo has made it so serious.

The Fragrant Herb Hall's Ni Chang has been missing for many days.

So many days have passed, I'm afraid...

she might have passed away unfortunately.

The trader-bidding has also been put on hold.

I've handed all the other matters over to you, Prince Luo

and the Young Marquis.

I wonder what else Your Highness, Prince Luo, still have in mind.

The Fragrant Herb Hall's Boss Ni Chang, is only missing,

yet Lord Yuan says she's already passed away.

Isn't that a bit too premature?

The products that Lanzhao has bought from Great Ning have not been gathered yet.

Yesterday, I checked the product list with the Princess.

Half of the weaving and aromatics products are still missing.

These products were originally under your jurisdiction.

I'm not clear about what's going on, either.

That's right! There is still more than a month before Lord Yuan leaves the post.

Is Lord Yuan trying to avoid the responsibility?

Please don't be angry, Your Highness, Prince Luo, and Young Marquis.

This matter is my mistake.

Before leaving the Imperial City, I'll certainly make sure to finish the task well.

Please be reassured as well, Your Highness, Princess!

I'll definitely hand over the products on time.

[Purchasing Order]

Please gather them quickly, Lord Yuan.

The products on these order are for Lanzhao's royalty, so nothing can be missing.

They will be transported back to Lanzhao at the end of the month.

Please send all the products to the Quiet Willow Pavilion.

I'll send someone to confirm.

I'll comply with your order.

However, there are still some details on these orders that require confirmation.

I'm not sure if I should still confirm with

Lord Wu Yi from the Lanzhao envoy.

- Isn't it all because of— - Wu Yi, he...

has already returned to his family's side.

From now on, only I and the Young Marquis

will handle it.

Since that's the case, I still have some matters to take care of.

I will take my leave first.

Your Highness, Princess.

[Propitious Courtyard]

The result over the joint-trade is put on hold because the Fragrant Herb Hall's Boss Ni Chang

has died from a fall from a cliff, and so is the competition.

More matters will be confirmed after your court discusses with my Lanzhao envoy.

- What's wrong with the Fang family? - It's probably nothing.

Miss, take a look!

These are all the newest looks. [Bright Pond Tarvern]

Young Mistress.

What have you come here for?

Young Miss, the Su family is ruined and the house is a mess.

Consider our past feelings, I beg Young Miss to take me in.

I'm willing to do anything for you, Young Miss.

Consider yourself lucky!

Right now, I'm missing a useful person beside me.

However, if you ever play tricks again,

I'll make you wish you were dead.

Thank you, Young Miss!

From now on, I'll only serve you, Young Miss.

I won't ever betray you.

[Su Family]

Eldest Young Master!

Young Master! Young Master...

Eldest Young Master, w-what happened to you?

It's nothing.

I just met two thieves... when I was leaving the tarvern.

What? How dare they?

It's in the broad daylight, is there any law still?

Young Master, I'll go to report it to the officials right now!

It's not serious, why should we disturb the ministry?

A'Cai, you should leave first. I have some matters to discuss with Steward Xiao.

Yes, Young Master.

Young Master, what orders do you have?

Steward Xiao, you've been with the Su family for about a decade.

These years, thank you for your hard work.

Especially lately,

all the matters within the manor

still require your care and service.

Young Master is too serious.

These are all the things that I should do.

I still have two important matters

that I'd like to ask your help with.

Please, tell me, Young Master.

Right now, the Su family is no longer as before.

The shops in the city have difficulties maintaining business.

Other shops continuously come and try to squeeze us out.

The workers are dispirited as well.

Steward Xiao,

please close down

those shops with overstocked goods that cannot maintain business.

Find a chance to sell them for money,

and then return the workers indentures to them.

Have them decide whether to leave or stay.

Young Master... wh-what is this for?

It's true! The Su family is no longer as well off as before,

but I believe as long as you have confidence, the Su family can become great again.

Don't worry, Steward Xiao!

I actually have some plans.

The Su family... will not end in my hands.

[Lifetime Morality Will Spread Its Fragrance]

My Lord, you're back.

I've done my best with the tasks My Lord has given me.

Once the remaining three shops are successfully exchanged, there'll be enough silver.

Not bad!

Go and buy the products on this list.

You must gather them before the end of the month.

[List of Fabrics]

[List of Spices]

While these high quality fabrics are not easy to find, they are still attainable.

However, these three types of herbal...

are specially made with a price, but not available in the market.

One type can be found in the Condensed Fragrant Pavilion, so I can have someone go to buy it.

However, the other two... they are all from the Fragrant Herb Hall.

The Fragrant Herb Hall doesn't have an owner at this time, I'm afraid...

When a person dies, he leaves behind his belongings.

I heard the Fragrant Herb Hall's special aromatics cannot be made by any other person in the Imperial City.

Go to get it to examine.

I want to know the trick to it as well.

I understand My Lord's meaning;

however, the Fragrant Herb Hall's remaining people have grudges with me.

If I go, they won't give it to us.

I'm afraid... it would cause other problems as well.

Then that's your problem.

Here, here, here! Be careful, be careful! Put it down gently.

[Su's Branch Shop]

- Easy, easy, easy! - Young Master,

the workers in the shop have mostly gone and been given their working fees.

The manager is old and isn't willing to care about business anymore,

so he went back to his hometown.

Steward Xiao, good work!

Don't worry! As long as the Su family has me, Su Wenyu,

we'll become great again one day.

I believe in the Young Master.

However, right now, the Su family has lost too much.

It also doesn't have much silver.

The craftsmiths have left one after another as well.

The shops can't provide new products, so our customers aren't willing to come anymore.

Young Master, allow me to say something.

You were on good terms with Lady Ni Chang before her death.

Since the Fragrant Herb Hall has no leader right now, but the goods and the trade are still there.

Why don't you buy it over at a low price...

Steward Xiao, how could I do that?

Young Master, I understand your feelings.

However, right now, our Su family has already fallen to this point.

Why don't you reconsider about this?

Don't speak of this matter again!

While I, Su Wenyu, am not some great person, I'm definitely not someone who would take advantage of others.

How great!

I didn't know that Su Wenyu was such a caring and kind person.

I won't let it work out for you.

You say this matter should be given to Su Wenyu.

This person is quite interesting.

I heard after Su Gongming died,

he did some things.

He was only putting up the last struggle.

The Su family's dominance is over.

What can a spoiled Young Master like him do?

However, Su Wenyu is close with Ni Chang.

The Su family also has some entanglements with the Fragrant Herb Hall.

If he were to take care of this matter, I'm sure My Lord will be pleased.

My Lord, Young Master Su is here.

Lord Yuan, I haven't come visit for many days.

I hope My Lord will forgive me.

I wonder why My Lord summoned me to come today?

Your Su family has contributed a lot to the Bureau of Affairs.

Your Second Uncle and I were also old acquaintances.

Today, I called you here because the Su family's situation is worrisome.

In consideration of our friendship of many years, I would like to ask you.

Do you need me to help you?

Lord Yuan,

right now, the Su family has lost power and my Second Uncle has also passed away.

I'm the only one left to support the Su family.

Other shops bully and take advantage of our situation

by cutting off our supply chains and forcing us to close shops.

My Lord,

I've also reached my end already.

Please help save the Su family.

A terrible situation isn't only due to one day's mistakes.

While Young Master Su was drinking and having fun before,

have you ever considered that you would end up like this some day?

Don't be rude!

Young Master Su,

what Boss Yan said, does make some sense still.

With the current situation of Su family,

even if I want to help,

I also don't know where to start.

Lord Yuan, I'm not asking for the Su family to be the top merchant again.

I'm only asking for your support,

to make those pay the price for insulting us

and let the Su family have a place in the Imperial City.

Young Master Su, please get up.

Since you have this will; of course, I need to help.

I just happened to have something which is an eyesore for me.

I need someone to help me with this.

I wonder if you'd be willing.

It's my honor to share your worries.

I wonder what you want me to do.

This is very easy for you.

I only need you to go to the Fragrant Herb Hall to get their unique spices.

It seems like this is a difficult task for Young Master Su to complete.

Your will just now seems to have been fake.

Of course, not.

Lord Yuan, I'll go take care of this right now.

Lord Yuan, Young Master Su came here so hastily.

Do you really trust him?

Whether I trust him or not, let's try and then we'll know.

Yuan Xiang.

How could this happen?

We finally had a stable and peaceful life.

We've gone through so many difficulties already.

How could this happen?

Don't be too sad!

If Ni Chang were here,

she wouldn't want to see you like this.

Su Wenyu, what are you planning on doing?

Under the order of Lord Yuan from the Bureau of Affairs,

I'm here to obtain the secret unique spices of the Fragrant Herb Hall as national gifts.

Please hand them over now,

lest everyone damages a good relationship.

Lord Yuan?

You became his dog, too, didn't you?

Seize the spices? Are you worthy of doing this?

Let him go!

- Let go! Don't touch her! - Don't move!

I advise you to think carefully.

I'm acting on behalf of the Bureau of Affairs.

The Fragrant Herb Hall is different from the past.

If you disobey, don't blame me for turning against you and becoming ruthless.

Head of the family, it's broad daylight.

Behave yourself! You are being lawless.

Search now!

- Young Master, we found them. - No...

Don't touch our stuff.

Don't move!

That's right!

This is it.

I'll let you off today then.

- Let's go! - Su Wenyu!

You're a coward!

Instead of managing your family's business well, you only want to curry favors for personal gain.

It's really a tragedy for the Su family to have someone like you.

The Su family will be ruined by you, sooner or later.

- Scoundrel! Beat him up! - Cheng Tian!

Prince Luo is here. Who dares to create trouble?

- You're bullying people excessively. - Cheng Tian.

Cheng Tian, are you alright?

Cheng Tian, are you alright?

Is Fragrant Herb Hall a place for you to create chaos?

Your Highness, Prince Luo.

I forgot that

you're the backer of tFragrant Herb Hall.

May I be so bold to ask?

When a mishap befell on Ni Chang, where were you?

How presumptuous! Dare you to be rude?

[Yuan Manor]

What did you think of Su Wenyu's performance at the Fragrant Herb Hall yesterday?

I think, Su Wenyu is reckless and stupid,

but for now, he's someone useful.

If the Su family can cover up for matters in the future,

perhaps, it'll be more convenient.

Lord Yuan, I brought Young Master Su here.

Lord Yuan,

this is what you wanted me to find.

The unique spices of the Fragrant Herb Hall are all here.

Young Master Su is indeed a promising person.

I heard that Prince Luo went to the Fragrant Herb Hall, too.

Did it go smoothly?

Prince Luo naturally wanted to protect the Fragrant Herb Hall.

However, preparation for national gifts is an important event.

That Prince Luo can't stop us, either.

You did well in this matter.

Since you're so determined, by my side

you can be someone who can do things for me out there that I lack.

Wenxiu.

Yes.

The procurement division is still short of many types of silk.

Make arrangements to obtain the specific details.

Wenxiu will tell you the details of what to do.

Don't disappoint me, you two!

- Yes, My Lord. - Yes, My Lord.

- A'Mo. - I'm here.

There must be no careless mistakes in this matter.

- Keep a close watch on them. - Yes.

May I dare to ask for your name?

I'm...

Wu Yi.

Are you from Fanjing?

I...

lived there for several years when I was young.

Xin'er.

I even said that

I would take him to Lanzhao and show him the scenery.

But now, he's gone just like that...

He only just found his family member.
