[Adapted from the novel "Gone with the Rain" by Ni Luo]

[Episode 35]

General!

General!

How did it go?

We found her.

Tell me where Moxi is.

In...

In the woods nearby the relay station,

there's a female corpse

with her face disfigured with burns.

This was found among her belongings.

I've interrogated Chen Wende's guard

in captive.

He said the general's wife...

I mean Miss Moxi had been embroidering this sock lately.

She decided to embroider a lotus

because she was not skilled in embroidery,

considering it as her needlework.

So whoever carried this sock

must be...

Moxi!

You've been forging so many weapons in a month.

Are you really planning a rebellion?

I've told you countless times

that I'm not a rebel. How can you say it's a revolt?

What are these?

Evidence of Marquis Mingde, Zhong Yuqi and Wu Lang conspiring

with the governor to cause chaos.

Unfortunately, the emperor was blinded by their deception

and believed that I'm a rebel.

I'm completely defeated.

Qingzhou City is lost.

[Chen] The army is almost completely destroyed.

It seems that I have no chance of toppling

Zhong Yuqi, Wu Lang, and the rebellious ministers around His Majesty.

Madam! Madam!

Madam!

Madam.

Madam, where's the general?

General!

General!

General!

General!

General, open your eyes!

Wake up!

General,

I'm sorry I came late.

I'm sorry.

General,

I'm sorry.

Please punish me.

General.

General!

It's my fault for being incompetent!

I'm so useless.

Stop crying.

I'm so useless.

He's already dead.

General...

I'm sorry.

General, it was my fault.

[I'll get you out of there]

This is Wan Jiagui's handwriting.

Madam, run!

Run now!

Mudslide!

Quickly, go!

- Official documents. - Here it is, sir.

You may pass.

[One year later] [Jingzhou City]

[Wan's Mansion]

The weather is very cold today.

The general will arrive in a while.

Madam, hold this hand warmer and don't get cold.

Go and get a robe.

Why aren't you wearing more clothes?

The elders were rushing me.

So I forgot for a moment.

I feel much better now.

You do look like it.

It's all thanks to the traveling doctor who saved Jiagui.

Thank you, dear.

Look at this couple.

Always thanking each other.

It's so awkward.

Father, Mother.

Father, Mother.

No need to be so formal between family.

This is our first reunion

after your mother recovered from her illness.

We can't be late for this year's Lantern Festival.

Let's go quickly.

He's right.

Prepare the carriage.

Please hold on to me tight.

Get in.

All right.

Try this. This is really tasty.

Yes.

If you add more of this seasoning, it'll be so fragrant.

Then add some more.

Here you go.

Ladies, hold this properly.

- Thank you. - Thank you.

That lantern...

That lantern looks like the one you gave to Moxi.

Everyone,

today our shop is closed.

Please come another day.

So please leave.

We're not opening for business today.

Please come another day.

We're also here to participate in the selection of jewelry for the palace.

The Directress of Clothing from the Wardrobe Services is here.

Let's go inside.

Yes, Madam.

Perhaps you were mistaken.

But...

But the figure was similar to Moxi.

Perhaps I was mistaken.

Now that I've already seen the finished products of the eight shops,

the one selected for the Inner Court is... Wait a moment.

The streets in Jingzhou are blocked by people who are viewing the lanterns.

That's why I arrived late.

Who are you?

How dare you trespass.

I'm also here to participate in the selection.

Which shop are you from?

I've never met you before.

Baoqing Jewelry?

It's indeed a renowned shop for imperial jewelry passed down through generations.

Since the time of the founding emperor,

Baoqing Jewelry supplied jewels and accessories to the Wardrobe Services.

But it disappeared after several wars.

It turns out your business has been ongoing all this time.

Maintaining it has been difficult in troubled times.

But we didn't want to ruin our ancestors' reputation.

The jewelry appraisal is held specifically

for the selection of jewelry

for the palace's concubines and princesses.

The owner of each store is busy with their tasks.

But you arrived late.

May I ask why you showed such negligence and disrespect?

I came from Anhuazhou, and the journey was difficult,

which caused our delay.

As soon as I entered Jingzhou City, I heard the news and rushed here.

It's not considered negligent or disrespectful, right?

You're just a woman.

How dare a remote countryside old shop

dares to boast in front of us?

Ridiculous.

I heard that this jewelry appraisal

is about the craftsmanship and style of the jewelry,

not about eloquence.

What do you think?

You...

Hold on.

Baoqing Jewelry may have collaborated with Wardrobe Services in the past.

But you haven't presented any precious items for many years.

The other stores present here are renowned in Jingzhou City.

If your craftsmanship is lacking,

you'll end up being a laughingstock.

Xiaowu.

Bring them in.

This craftsmanship has been lost for a long time.

I can't believe I'm fortunate enough to see it again.

If I may be bold to ask,

are these jewelry pieces made by your craftsmen?

Under some coincidence,

I've taken in some talented craftsmen who are disabled.

This is wonderful.

The concubines and princesses must be happy with these.

May I ask for your name?

My last name is Tang.

My husband passed away early.

Madam, you can address me as Miss Tang.

Miss Tang?

This is quite a grand scene.

There's a new store opening.

Look how impressive it is.

You're right.

Ladies and gentlemen,

today is the day

Baoqing Jewelry returns to do business in Jingzhou City.

Please make way.

Miss Tang.

I have something to report.

Our plaque cannot be delivered.

Why is that?

The Jewelry Traders Association doesn't allow it.

They also announced

that no one is allowed to make plaques for us.

How can they open without a plaque?

Isn't this a joke?

Isn't this just messing around?

It doesn't matter.

I already checked the auspicious date.

Today is a lucky day for the opening.

Since the plaque cannot be delivered for the time being,

it's just a minor setback.

Lucky people don't need to rush.

Open the door and welcome the guests.

Please come in.

Everyone, please enter.

Please come this way.

Please come inside.

Welcome to our store.

Please come this way.

This way, please.

Please come with me.

I think this style is quite exquisite.

Do you have any double-stranded ones?

Take a look at this.

Do you see this?

These bracelets were meticulously crafted

by our best craftsman.

Can you see the gemstones on top?

These were collected by Miss Tang from various places.

If both of you like it... They do look beautiful.

If you don't find them appealing, They are indeed beautiful.

It's all right too.

I can help you select some more.

What do you think?

Look.

You can try it on.

Miss Tang, what's the meaning of this?

Why are you suddenly putting away all the jewelry?

Are you not planning to do business anymore?

I have other uses for the items on these shelves.

So they are temporarily not for sale.

But don't worry.

New stock will be replenished from the warehouse shortly.

Although the styles may be slightly different,

they are all crafted by the same craftsman.

So you won't be disappointed.

I'm glad to hear that.

That's right.

Ladies, let's go inside and have a look.

All right.

Please come this way.

Here, watch your steps.

I like this one.

The polishing on this surface is excellent.

Then we'll take this one.

All right.

You're back.

What's wrong with your finger?

It's nothing.

You pricked your fingers.

You should apply some ointment.

- It's nothing... - Yu.

Yes, General.

Get the medical ointment here.

Yes, General.

It's just a minor injury.

There's no need to make a fuss.

Put it here.

Give me your hand.

Thank you, General.

It's not even noon.

Why did you come back early?

There was nothing to do in the camp today. So I returned early.

When I passed by the front yard just now,

Mother scolded me and lectured me.

They have already noticed

that something is amiss between us.

Then...

You can rest assured.

No one dares to reveal that we sleep in separate beds.

Mother thought I was mistreating you.

So she scolded me fiercely.

She also told me to take you out and have some fun.

And not to let you stay at home all day.

Tomorrow is your birthday.

I heard that Feiyue Pavilion serves excellent Jiangnan cuisine.

Shall we go and try it?

Sure.

Then be prepared for tomorrow night.

We'll go when the lanterns are lit.

I still have some matters to attend to.

It's cold in the winter so don't catch a cold.

I'm not being cold to you on purpose.

If we become a real couple,

how can I face the late Moxi?

Besides, Moxi will always be the first

in your heart, right?

Hurry up.

Wait for me.

Slow down, don't run.

This is out of this world.

A new shop that doesn't have a plaque.

It's completely bare without a name.

I heard the outsider provoked the head of the Jewelry Traders Association

when she just arrived in Jingzhou City.

Be safe.

That's why they're trying to show who's in power here.

They offended the head?

Please come inside.

Did you get it?

I'm glad I didn't disappoint you.

Did you see anything you like?

I saw several pieces of jewelry.

The craftsmanship is indeed good.

I'll buy two next time.

[Baoqing Jewelry] [Anping Year Three, Winter]

Look at that.

Ladies and gentlemen, please take a close look.

This is the calligraphy granted by Earl Changping, Luo Yan.

Luo Yan's calligraphy?

She actually convinced Earl Changping

to write a plague for her.

Excuse me. Please make way.

Come.

Keep this.

Please make way. Make way.

Please make way.

That's very generous.

Miss Tang,

these are some gifts from my master.

Thank you.

These are return gifts from Earl Jingshou, Jiang Huan,

to our Baoqing Jewelry.

Whoa.

Xiaowu, get someone to move them inside.

Anyone?

Please unload the gifts and move them inside.

Although these Earls don't hold any official positions,

their nobility is passed down through generations.

It's understandable for Earl Changping.

But it's rare for Earl Jingshou

to show such favor to someone.

So the several boxes of jewelry that Miss Tang put away earlier

were actually gifts for the two Earls.

That's right.

Earl Changping's family has fallen on hard times.

So those pieces of jewelry could impress him.

But Earl Jingshou comes from a wealthy family.

It's strange that a few boxes of jewelry could win him over.

That's very strange.

Lord Luo did smile widely when he saw the jewelry.

But Lord Jiang refused at first.

But why did he suddenly change his mind

after seeing the scroll painting you gave him?

Because it's my portrait.

You should be happy that my beauty can captivate Lord Jiang.

After seeing Miss Tang's charisma and her exquisite jewelry,

I also want to buy a few things for my wife.

Hearing you say that makes me want to buy more items.

- Let's go inside. - All right.

Let's get a thing or two.

Please come inside.

I've finally returned.

You're just like me back then.

You would risk climbing the walls to find something to eat.

I was hungry and a gluton.

Although I was cautious,

once there was food, I didn't care about anything else.

But now when I think about it,

those days may have been hard.

But it was carefree and worry-free.

It's nothing.

I was talking to myself.

Keep eating.

After surviving many dangers

and hardships,

Xiaowu and I met the heir of Baoqing Jewelry

who was selling his waist token to pay for his mother's treatment.

I spent three gold bars

to buy his waist token.

Coincidentally, we ran into

the skilled craftsman who escaped from Qingzhou's foundry.

After changing appearances and identities,

we returned to Jingzhou City with Baoqing Jewelry's name.

But I'm no longer Bai Moxi.

Instead, I'm Miss Tang now.

Madam, be careful not to catch a cold.

We've returned to Jingzhou City.

But now I'm a widow.

Every time you address me as "Madam,"

I will think of Chen Wende.

You're the wife of my general.

Following you is like following the general.

How can I forget him?

Chen Wende was a man of deep emotions and loyalty.

Once you're acquainted with him,

who could easily forget him?

Times have changed, and it's the natural law of the world.

Without the threat of the general,

I can see that the corrupt officials

and influential people of Jingzhou City

have quickly returned to their days of prosperity.

They've long forgotten him.

This time, we return to Jingzhou City

to seek revenge on Zhong Yuqi and Wu Lang,

and seek justice for him and those deceased soldiers.

If we succeed,

I'll let everyone in the Jing State know

that Chen Wende was not a traitor,

but a loyal minister.

Madam,

are you really inviting the eight directors of the Jewelry Traders Association

to Feiyue Pavilion tomorrow night?

Of course.

They've been making things difficult for us at every turn.

How could I easily forget?

Tomorrow afternoon,

I'll meet the two Earls

to thank them for their generous gifts first.

You want to use the influence of the two Earls

to suppress them, right?

Not only that,

but the most important thing is

I want to be famous in Jingzhou City.

Why?

I want the entire Jingzhou City to know

that I, Tang Moxi,

am a beautiful and wealthy widow.

The only thing missing is a good husband.

What do you intend to achieve by doing this?

To approach Wu Lang.

Don't worry.

If there are any developments,

I'll inform you in detail.

Come.

Have some dishes.

Miss Tang, I'll be honest with you.

Your jewelry craftsmanship is indeed excellent.

But if you want to establish yourself in Jingzhou City,

I'm afraid it might not be that easy.

Is it just because I am an outsider?

But Baoqing Jewelry

used to be one of the top jewelers in Jingzhou City.

Miss Tang, you're really good at joking.

Time has already changed.

Currently, in Jingzhou City,

there are only eight jewelry businesses

that can do business with the palace at most.

Let me give you an example.

If these eight shopkeepers were to share this table of food,

they could only be half full at most.

But now, with you coming here, taking up half of the food,

everyone else is left hungry.

In such desperate situations,

anyone would resort to any means.

Let's eat.

You're really scaring me.

I was just kidding.

How can a weak woman like me withstand such things?

Excuse me, miss. Your guests are here.

Please excuse me for a moment.

I need to welcome my guests.

Let's drink.

Cheers.

Drink up.

- Drink. - Cheers.

Come.

Mister, this way, please.

Here, dig in.

Here, slowly.

All right.

My Lords.

Take a look.

Take care.

You two can leave now.

Yes, Master.

This way, please.

All right.

Good.

My Lords, this way, please.

Liu, thank you for your help.

It's not a big deal.

Moxi?

Moxi!

I'm sorry, ma'am.

The private rooms upstairs have already been reserved.

You can't go up if you're not invited.

Moxi!

Fengyao.

What was that?

I heard you calling Moxi's name.

So are you satisfied with the food here?

They're delicious.

Let's come again next time.

Please come this way.

Mister, ma'am,

the dishes you ordered have already been served.

Please enjoy your meal.

I thought I saw Moxi again.

How is that possible?

Moxi is already dead.

We were the ones who took care of her funeral.

I guess I made a mistake again.

I know

you're blaming me for what happened to Moxi.

You don't need to comfort me.

Moxi died because of a burden like me.

Or else she would have escaped a long time ago

with her intelligence and talent.

And she wouldn't have been held captive by Chen.

In the end...

I failed to stop Wu Yin

and watched Moxi perish in the flames.
