[Catch Up my Prince]

[Episode 23]

He gave me everything that I'd need to get power in the court.

He's also the one

who told me about Wa Zi's plan.

Wa Zi's marriage is definitely not that simple.

Be wary.

Who would I trust the you now?

- I have evidence - What evidence?

In Princess Jia Ren's dresser box

is a pouch. In the pouch is a map.

The map illustrates the various stops from New Ming to Wa Zi.

If you don't believe me, you can send someone to check it out.

It's just a map with stops.

What's so suspicious about that?

The Wa Zi Diplomatic Corps would have an official document

if they want to enter the Imperial City.

Why would they have to avoid the stops?

For a map like this to be on the hands of a Diplomatic Corps is highly suspicious.

What's there to be afraid of Wa Zi, a mere small country?

You've been going around the court to get the support of various powers

just to get Father's liking.

Now, you've already got everything you want.

Why are you telling me all these?

I'm asking you to let the two of us go on the account of your brotherly ties all these years.

I will bring her faraway from here, and live a quiet life.

Just so simple?

Oh right.

I also need your help to look for this drawing collection.

This is the final thing he asked from me.

I shall pass it to you.

What is this?

When Han Zhang Palace was investigated, nothing was left for him.

This drawing collection was categorized as part of his letters,

and was seen as evidence for his execution.

He helped me to where I am today,

yet this old drawing collection was all he wanted.

[Drawing Collection]

Xiao Jia?

You just...

He told me a story.

The main character of this story is a girl called Xiao Jia.

Although she's just a mere clothing servant, she had no qualms.

She had so many interesting thoughts going on in her mind.

I've never met her,

but she felt so familiar.

I've always wanted to meet her.

But I don't know why,

she left.

And I don't know what kind of heavenly ability she had,

but she could make everyone forget about her.

That included me too.

[Drawing Collection]

Why did she make everyone forget her?

Now that Wa Zi and New Ming have commenced a war,

as a Eleventh Consort,

you plotted an assassination against the Emperor, it'd be hard for you to go anywhere.

I know.

Tomorrow, I will be heading to Wa Zi.

At that time,

the news that the Eleventh Consort has died in the prison

will be spread.

This time, I finally have the ability to bring you out.

Eleventh Prince...

In the future, when there's no one around,

you don't have to call me Your Highness. Just call me Eleven.

Sure.

Didn't I say, when there's no one around,

call me Eleven.

Go. Fourth Brother is waiting for you.

Thank you,

Eleven.

Princess, we're here.

I'll take my leave.

[Drawing Collection]

I heard Your Highness is not satisfied with my ending.

Young Prince Duan's ending was indeed tragic. ♫ In the sunset, the rain fall on the ridge ♫

Though it seems like he had some affinity with every lady, ♫ In the bronze mirror ♫

none of them succeeded in the end. ♫ The old man's clothes ♫

[Drawing Collection] ♫ Twisted bamboo shadows, candlelight talks, worrying about the passing time ♫

There's no fixed way of writing, you have to make what doesn't exist broad. ♫ This piece of flute music goes around the fence and pavilion ♫

If you want to write well, ♫ Fold a piece of autumn leaf ♫

you have to relax your wrist. ♫ To say goodbye ♫

♫ There are bosom friends ♫

♫ in every corner of the country ♫

Young Prince Duan enjoyed the love of many people, isn't that what every man would be envious of? ♫ I'll pick the stars in the dream for you ♫

That's not true. Men would rather have one out of three thousand weak affinities. ♫ Sigh as we walk under the autumn moon ♫

♫ We meet in this endless time ♫

Yesterday's star-studded sky, ♫ At the end of prosperity is you ♫

yesterday's wind. ♫ Step through the depression ♫

On the west bank of the building, the hall that faces east.

Without a colorful phoenix and a pair of wings.

Our hearts are connected, and our telepathy goes through.

♫ Step through the depression, it's you ♫

You're awake.

The closest town to this area is Ji Mo.

I'm going to rest there.

What do you plan to do after that?

Find an isolated place that is

far away from the Imperial City, away from Wa Ci,

and away from all the troublesome issues.

I'll work at sunrise and rest at sunset.

When I have nothing to do, I will read and drink tea.

Live this life in peace and quiet.

Your Highness, Princess,

I like to be with the two of you.

Have we arrived?

No.

I have two old friends here, come with me to see them.

[In loving memory, Yu Zi Xin, Yu Zi Kang]

I found this purse at the Cherished Orders Palace that time.

Now it can be regarded as returning it to its original owner.

The two siblings are finally reunited.

When Teacher passed away,

I could not give him a grand burial.

Now I can only do my best.

At least let them be buried together.

Although this is in the wilderness, but it's quiet and the view is great.

They did not get what they wanted before they died.

I will pursue the injustice

suffered by the Yu family.

[In loving memory, Yu Zi Xin, Yu Zi Kang]

I don't know when I can return after this visit.

I came to say goodbye to the two of you.

I was too naive at that time.

I only want to send you to my big brother

so as to protect you.

In addition, I also want to have an early closure with Xu You Zheng.

After that, I can take you to the domain to enjoy a peaceful and smooth life.

It's my fault that I didn't think it through, and I've caused harm to Xin'er and Kang'er.

I remember back then

when I was in jail,

I was still upset because you came to see Wu Zi Xin

and thought you didn't care about my death.

Thinking about it now is really like a dream.

I had my doubts about you too.

I hope I can get your forgiveness.

I have forgiven you long ago.

[Ancient Style Inn] Boss, do you have any more rooms?

There are plenty of rooms here.

How many do you want? Three?

I want one.

One? How can we all fit in one room?

Of course, my wife stays with me.

Then, what about me?

You can sleep in the carriage.

Alright. Attendant.

- Coming! - Bring the guests to their room.

Alright. This way please.

- Thank you. - This way please.

Young master.

- This way. - I'm not an animal.

Animals also have a temper, okay?

Woof, woof!

Zhao Chen Yi, is this how I've been all the way here?

I think it's fine.

No, I dislike myself.

I don't mind.

I'm going to take a bath. Don't you dare peek.

I also had a long journey,

let's bathe together.

I'll bathe by myself.

It's really been a long time since I've had such a perfectly hot bath.

Is this the right water temperature?

Of course.

Qi-qi-qin Shou!

You!

What's the matter, my lady?

A bug this big just flew into the room.

I was shocked.

I don't see it.

It just flew out.

I have to take a bath, can you go wait for me outside?

Okay.

Your handkerchief.

If anything happens, my lady, call me again.

I...!

Why did you appear all of a sudden?

I'm here to remind you that you have a letter from a good friend.

I'll get the message for you.

A good friend?

Courier Pigeon.

Check your message.

Lu Ran Ran, do you know what you've been doing lately? Let me remind you.

Now we just need to solve the true love leads to complete the task.

There are only four hours left in real time.

If this continues, Wang Chen Yi and Xiao Yun

will be in real danger. Sober up!

There is no other message.

I brought you just this one. I'll make a move first.

Bye-bye.

Time is running out,

what should I do about the next keyword?

I have to buy some rouge, some clothes,

- and a new bag later. What's the matter? - Nothing.

Did we run out of money and you are too embarrassed to tell me?

What made you think so?

Because you are not even willing to pay for an extra room for Xiao Bao.

You're thinking too much. I have enough to provide for you.

Then I'll feel free to go shopping.

Sir, do you want to get a hair clasp? Who are you getting it for?

I want to give it to my wife.

How about this?

I think this is good.

Do you want to hold my hand that badly?

No. I just want to buy river lanterns.

- What's the matter? - I'm afraid you'll fall into the water.

The water here is so shallow, I'm not going to drown in it.

Don't worry.

Previously, the lake was also very shallow. But after you fell in,

I never found you again.

I promise you that I won't leave you here alone again.

Young Master, you're back.

Come in with me.

Boss,

get me another room.

Alright, Sir.

That's great.

[Ancient Style Inn]

- What are you doing? - Didn't you say to do what couples should do?

I didn't mean that.

I meant it.

You're teasing me again.

Don't worry. Before I marry you,

I won't cross the boundary.

I didn't think that way.

No,

I still haven't gotten the True Love path unlocked yet.

Is it because Zhao Chen Yi and I haven't...

What are you thinking?

I was thinking...

I think we can... Cross the boundary...

A little.

Why have you been looking at me like this lately?

We've been apart for so long, I want to look at you a little more.

In the time I was away...

You must've missed me.

I hated you.

Because when you left me, I thought you lied to me.

But when I picked up a pen, the pen and paper all reminded me of you.

When I looked at the sky, the sun, moon, and stars all reminded me of you.

Lass, I can't forget you.

I promise you, I won't let you be upset or sad in the future.

Can you tell me now why you left me back then?

Never mind. Tell me when you want to.

Now you only have to do

one thing. And that is to make it up to me.

♫ That night the gentle wind never dispersed ♫

♫ My tender confession can't conceal my heart ♫

♫ We finally made our way back to each other ♫

♫ As fireworks wane, the butterflies in our stomachs spread ♫

♫ The soft night breeze hugs you to sleep ♫

♫ I kiss you lightly on the forehead ♫

♫ I would willingly fall deeply in love ♫

♫ And hand in hand, travel the world with you ♫

Zhao Chen Yi.

This Sugar Cane the Fourth. Last night did he...

No, I have to go take a look.

You're back.

I saw someone selling lanterns.

Sadly, there wasn't the lantern you liked.

I drew a rabbit lantern from my memory

and gave it to the store owner and asked him to do one.

I thought you...

What did you think?

I want to fulfil every wish my wife has.

This is what every couple should do right?

It's just a pity

that I don't know the answer to that lantern quiz.

A silk handkerchief. Guess a poem.

What poem is it?

It's "Lovesickness."

A plain handkerchief embodies his missing.

The sir looked at it over and over.

On both sides is silk.

Wife.

Please don't leave me again.

Sir.

Did you have a good night?

Sir, everything's good

but the walls are a little thin.

Thank you.

[Gu Feng Inn]

Bao, did we buy so many things yesterday?

You didn't buy this many things, but sir asked me to buy many things.

W-What are these?

We swapped our mattress for a satin one.

This is the carpet for wooden floors.

I will set up a table in front and put on the incense and desserts.

Sir said though we are poor,

we can't have Missus suffer on this journey.

We have to eat the best and use the best things.

Sir.

Go ahead.

You're so petty.

I only mentioned it yesterday and you bought so many things?

I'm not being petty.

I'm just taking every word you say seriously.

Let's go.

Are you okay?

What's going on?

Who are you?

We are here to protect Princess Jia Ren under the King's order.

Don't worry. As long as you hand over Princess Jia Ren, we won't do anything.

They're people from Wa Zi.

If you don't cooperate with us,

we won't go lightly on you.

Hold it!

Princess Jia Ren.

I could leave New Ming all thanks to the help of these two sirs.

I can leave with you, but I have to bring them with me.

You have to ensure our safety on the way.

Since they are your saviors,

they are also honored guests of us Wa Zi.

A troop has appeared suddenly here,

making our troops go further back.

I have no idea what's going on now either.

King, Xin Ming sent Eleventh Prince to lead a troop

to attack us from the back going around Liang Zhou City,

leaving us stumped.

We have lost half our troop and can only retreat from Yang He for the time being.

This Eleventh Prince from New Ming is young.

How would he have such foresight?

The Sai Wai Castle is crumbling.

What should we do, King?

Report! King,

the people sent to look for Princess Jia Ren are back.

Jia Ren? Quick! Bring her to see me!

Yes.

The person accompanying Princess is New Ming's Fourth Prince.

- Jia Ren. - Brother.

Jia Ren.

Thankfully you're fine.

Rumor has it that you died in New Ming's Prison, but I didn't believe it.

Thankfully you're back safe.

Brother, these two are my brothers from New Ming.

It's all thanks to them that I can return safely.

However, also because of this, they have both offended New Ming and won't be able to return.

So I'd like to ask Brother if we can keep them here.

They're from New Ming?

This...

King.

Since they are Jia Ren's saviors,

they are also Wa Zi's honored guests. Of course they can stay here.

It's been a rough road here. It must've been tough on you.

Go have a good rest. I will properly welcome you tomorrow night.

Thank you Brother!

Thank you, King.

I still find it a little inappropriate.

We are in war with New Ming.

To have someone from New Ming by our side is dangerous.

On top of that, he's also so close to Jia Ren.

What if our information...

King, don't be so nervous.

I persuaded you to keep them only because I've thought this through.

Do you know who that person who returned with Princess Jia Ren is?

- Who is he? - Princess Jia Ren attempted to assassinate New Ming's Emperor and was sent to the prison.

However, she came out unscathed. Don't you find it weird?

What kind of identity would be able to help Princess Jia Ren escape so easily?

It's Eleventh Prince who let Jia Ren off personally?

The moment Princess Jia Ren left,

the news of Eleventh Consort dying came from New Ming immediately.

This person must be working with Eleventh Prince both on the inside and on the outside.

The two of them have deep trust too.

According to what you said,

he has to be someone from the New Ming's royal family too?

Someone under me who have been to New Ming years ago

has once seen Fourth Prince.

He confirmed that the person who returned with Princess this time

is Fourth Prince, Zhao Chen Yi.

Fourth Prince has been missing for years.

- Why is he suddenly with Jia Ren– - King, be it if he's Fourth Prince or not,

since he's willing to join hands with Eleventh Prince to save Princess Jia Ren

that shows that Princess Jia Ren is very important to them.

Isn't this good news to us?

Mr. Shi, what you mean is...

Since this Fourth Prince came personally,

why not just go with it,

and use this Fourth Prince to affect the morale of New Ming's troops.

At the banquet tomorrow night, how about King you

let Princess Jia Ren get married with him,

and see their reaction.

We can set up a buffer for now.

What do you think?

- Good. - Good!

Everyone, the banquet tonight

is firstly to treat all the generals here

for your hard work in the battle.

Secondly, it's for Jia Ren's safe return.

This is a relief!

- Indeed. - Indeed.

Congratulations King!

Congratulations King.

Previously, in order to take revenge on our father's death,

Jia Ren didn't care about her own safety

to get married for Wa Zi's bigger plan.

I am very touched.

I am deeply indebt with you.

Now that the marriage has failed

and it has also caused troubles to your marriage,

this sir, though you're someone from New Ming,

but you're willing to send Jia Ren all the way back.

You're intelligent and bold. You're a benefactor of us Wa Zi.

- That's right. - He's a benefactor.

Benefactor!

We Wa Zi, unlike New Ming,

don't have that many traditions when it comes to marriage.

What we care about what two people think of each other.

Since we are so happy today, I will help you make this decision.

I will marry you to this Sir, how's that?

- Good! - Very good!

That's a great thing!

Brother...

Why? You're unwilling?

I watched you grow up.

I know very well what you like.

You have been looking at him all night today.

You like him. Think I wouldn't know?

If I still don't unlock the "True Love" clue,

Wang Chen Yi and Xiao Yun would really be in danger.

Could it be because we haven't been wedded yet?

How's that?

I'm willing.

Good!

Good!

This is a great thing.

I will hand Princess over to you.

Good!

Everyone, I will drink a toast to you.

Here, congratulations!

This is a great thing!

What is Princess thinking?

If we have a wedding here at Luo Yan,

will we still be able to leave?

Why?

This is not so simple.

That Mr. Shi,

the person beside him, was one of the person with

Ji Huan on the Battle Competition.

Oh no. He must've seen you before.

I'm afraid they've long known my identity.

What are they trying to do?

When I marry Lass,

they will hold me hostage,

to challenge New Ming.

They will take the chance to to release news that I've betrayed and joined Wa Zi.

When this news is out, it will definitely mess with

the loyalty of the New Ming troops.

The people of Wa Zi look so honest,

but they're so scheming.

Go get the package on top of the table.

Yes.

Your Highness, you're prepared?

Let's go and see

what they're up to tonight.

King, our spy has sent us some information.

The New Ming troops have been winning as they go up north.

Now that they're running out of grain supplies, they are planning

to send a portion of the troops back to the Imperial City via Ju Yong Pass.

This is a great chance.

King, we just have to send our troops to Ju Yong Pass

we will be able to dissolve their troops easily.

Go inform the troops to be ready

- to leave the camp. - Yes.

I'm only afraid that the troops we are able to activate

are too little.

King, did you forget?

We have a secret weapon.

[New Ming Troops Required] [Hand cannon]

When did you retrieve this?

After Princess arrived at New Ming, this batch of hand cannons came back with some of the diplomatic corps.

There are 800 of them in total. That Prison Lord in New Ming

gave us a good price.

What about Jia Ren's wedding then?

There's a good chance that Princess does not know his real identity.

After all, New Ming's Fourth Prince has been missing for many years.

We can control him first,

and use him to negotiate with Eleventh Prince.

If Eleventh Prince agrees,

we can take down Ju Yong Pass without sacrificing any of our guards.

If he doesn't, we can take the chance to test out these hand cannons.

Pass this information on to Eleven. Xu You Zheng sold hand cannons to Wa Zi.

The fight at Ju Yong Pass won't be easy.

- Go quickly! - But–

Go!

Who's there?

Who's there? Stand right there!

Bring him in.

It's Fourth Prince.

My dear brother-in-law.

You're not in your own tent,

but here. Why?

I thought the sky looked nice tonight,

so I came out to take a look at the view.

Your excuse is not convincing.

New Ming's Fourth Prince, you must've seen all sorts of views before.

Who is Fourth Prince?

I don't know him.

It's fine. It doesn't matter if you know him.

You have to be Fourth Prince.

Go!

I'm suddenly feeling unsettled. Why's that so? I feel like something's going on.

Catch that bandit! We can't let him live!

He must be a spy!

What's going on outside?

Nothing, Princess. The war has been tight,

sometimes the soldiers hold drills at night.

- Princess. - Tell me the truth. What's going on outside?

That Sir who came from New Ming listened to King secretly

and has been locked up by the King.

What?

- Princess, Princess. - Move aside, I'm going out.

- Princess, where are you going? - Trying to hold me back?

You're not letting me go out?

The King ordered us,

before the truth comes to light, we can't let you out.

It's best you stay here quietly.

- Move aside! - Princess.

Move aside!

Princess, don't–

Ah Wu?

You know me?

Are you the one who set Wen Yan Court on fire?

Fourth Prince told you?

Y-yes.

Are you Princess Jia Ren then?

Isn't he under Xu You Zheng? Why is he here?

I am. Why are you here?

I came all the way to Wa Zi internal department

according to the information given by Fourth Prince.

I've been undercover here till you returned.

I just heard that Fourth Prince got locked up.

Zhao Chen Yi really got caught?

Yes. I heard it's because he found evidence of the King and Xu You Zheng's transaction.

Xu You Zheng this bastard.

It is him who betrayed the country after all.

Zhao Chen Yi has been framed.

Where is he?

He is...

Stop hesitating, bring me there!

I'm a Princess after all, I will be of help!

Let's go!
