[A Lifetime Love]

[Episode 20]

Xuan Yang and Ling Yun are completely different.

I noticed that in Ling Yun,

when a female talks about a man,

it's never about good qualities or talents.

but about the value of his bloodline.

It's as if he's only trustworthy

if he's from a good family with a noble bloodline.

Even though on the surface, it seems to be idle chatter,

in fact, one can see a lot of real problems from it.

Of course, Xuan Yang is inevitably influenced

by the big royal families here.

However, my Royal Father has said that no matter if common people or royal nobility,

all are blessings from the gods and all are equal.

There is no such distinction between those in higher or lower places.

An individual's status, whether he's from the nobles or commoners,

can only be determined by their actions.

So in our Xuan Yang,

whether you are born in a distinguished family or from a low place,

as long as you're talented, people will respect you.

Up till now, Ling Yun is still unaware of their own weakness

and still keeps immersing in the satisfaction of being an ancient royal family.

Even Royal Father hasn't realized

that great changes are taking place in Xuan Mu.

They think the conflict between Chi Yun and Tong Zheng

is merely a fight for power.

Today, in court, I said that the conflict between Chi Yun and Tong Zheng

is actually the conflict between the two classes.

I made a suggestion trying to reform.

Royal Father was quite upset.

He said that the foundation of a faction lies in etiquette,

and that I've been too bold in talking about changes.

So the rumors about Ling Yun not wanting to be just a tribe,

and instead, wanting to have its own territories like Xuan Yang and Xuan Mu,

and even conquering the Land of Wilderness, are all true?

Perhaps.

I'm also unclear about what my Royal Father is thinking.

- You're rather honest.
- If I'm not, what's the alternative?

Besides, under current conditions,

for Ling Yun to have its own territories wouldn't be easy.

Even if Xuan Yang might not care,

Xuan Mu will never allow

a powerful third force to get involved.

Take your time! Sometimes, things can't be rushed.

I hope Royal Father can understand this one day.

If Ling Yun keeps sticking to the old rules,

forget about having our own territories,

we might be struggling to even keep our faction's existence.

Sometimes, I really do envy Chi Yun.

He has no fears and can just do whatever he wants.

Look at Ruo Jiang's army, it started with just hundreds of people,

but now, under Chi Yun's leadership,

there are already tens of thousands.

Mother, I've returned.

Ji Yi,

you're finally back.

Mother, I've arrived late.

As long as you are back, that's good.

As long as you are back, that's good.

Unlike your brother...

who can never return again.

Mother, I just got back and paid a visit to Royal Father.

Royal Father gave me a lot of things and even added a title for Third Brother.

I've also seen my elder brothers.

Nonsense!

You have only one brother, and that is Xuan Yang's Hui!

The others are all your enemies!

If you're going to call your enemy Brother, then get out!

I won't have you for a son!

Your brother died because of Yu Chen.

Your Royal Father clearly knew that, and protects them nonetheless.

Clearly, Yu Chen was clearly avenging Chang Zhou.

It must be them!

Mother, how could Royal Father be covering anything up?

Hui was also his son!

My poor Hui'er,

his bones aren't even cold yet,

and that Xuan Yang's Zhi Ruo is already planning his wedding.

If this isn't revenge, then what is it?

Mother, Eldest Brother and Fourth Brother aren't like that.

I won't allow you to say that!

I'm telling you,

I'll surely avenge my Hui'er.

I'll definitely let that woman in Sunrise Hall

know the pain of losing a child!

Mother!

Fourth Brother's wedding is coming up.

I wonder what my future sister-in-law likes?

Then you'll have to ask Fourth Brother about that.

With my Fourth Brother's character,

it's hard to get a full answer to every question.

I nagged him all day, and all I've gotten is that

she's from Zhuo Shan, a locally prominent family.

Ruo Jiang and She He are where folk customs are strong and prevalent.

They only respect heroes.

This sister-in-law of yours

is likely not only a member of the Zhuo Shan family,

- but also the future female leader of She He tribe.
- What?

My Fourth Brother is marrying the female leader of She He?

I had thought he would fall for a gentle, elegant lady.

What a surprise that he ended up falling for a female heroine.

So what are you planning to give to this heroine?

All heroes love famous weapons.

Chi Yun is famous for his weapons forging,

but no one knows that the swords made by Ling Yun's Sheng Lun

are also unparalleled in the world.

It's just that I don't know if he'd want to do this favor.

I heard he rarely helps people make weapons.

It isn't that he isn't willing.

It's just that…

Just what?

Nothing much.

That day, I took your recipe for the Yin wine.

Consider this as a gift in return.

However, under such short notice,

all I can make is a dagger.

Really?

Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!

You and your brother really are alike.

- You all want to give each other the best things you have.
- That goes without saying.

Fourth Brother is the best brother in the whole world.

What about Yu Chen?

Eldest Brother... is just like Royal Father.

The bigger picture always comes first.

You just got back and are already drinking like this?

What has brought you here?

Are you thinking about A'Mo again?

What does my thinking about her or not have to do with you?

What happens between you two doesn't concern me.

I just want to know...

while you're trying so hard to help Hao Xu,

is it possible that you have a personal angle which is related to A'Mo?

I really can't hide anything from you.

I'll admit that there is.

Do you still want to take A' Mo back using a troop?

No.

I just want to prove to her

that I'm way better than Sheng Lun.

I want her to regret...

regret for not choosing me.

Then have you thought about Hao Xu?

He trusts you so much.

Are you really just because of A'Mo,

going to start a war between the two factions?

Is that how you see me?

If I want to start a war between two factions,

I can grab a weapon right now

and lead a troop to Ling Yun.

However, I'm not doing that,

just because of Hao Xu and the old man.

You can rest assured.

I'll pick a time that's convenient for Xuan Mu,

or let Ling Yun make the first move.

I won't make it hard for you and Hao Xu.

I'll admit that I was skeptical.

How's it going with that general of Ling Yun?

What made you think to ask about that?

You aren't the kind of person who would care about such things.

You asked me first.

We don't have as many obstacles in our way as you and A'Mo do.

But for us to be together,

it isn't that easy, either.

Have a drink!

No.

It's still too early for me to enjoy that kind of leisure.

There are many things to deal with in court.

Enjoy it yourself.

I won't show you out then.

Every April, when the blossoms cover the mountain,

Ruo Jiang will have a Blossom Dancing Festival.

Everyone will sing love songs under the peach tree and find their lovers.

Starting from next year, I'll be waiting for you

under the peach trees in the Valley of No Return every April.

It's a deal; we must meet there.

If you wear the clothes I made for you,

I'll agree to see you every year.

If I can do that my whole life, you'll come see me for my whole life?

If you wear it,

then I'll come.

That day, when I gave Chi Yun this robe,

I was promising him my life-long commitment.

But he

never truly understood my heart.

A'Mo.

A'Mo.

A'Mo.

Jing Shi, I miss you so much.

Are you doing all right in Ling Yun?

I really want to come visit you,

but I've been so busy here in Xuan Mu.

I just can't find the time.

How have you been?

Have Di Yin and his underlings been giving you trouble?

I'm so worried.

I'm worried if a war breaks out between the two factions,

how am I supposed to face you?

Can you understand me?

What's on your mind?

Nothing much.

Over the past few days I've been teaching the women how to raise silkworms.

They catch on very quickly.

Therefore, I would like to ask Royal Father and Royal Mother

if I may go to the north to teach the women there.

That way, all of Ling Yun will have this skill soon.

That's a good thing; thus, Royal Father and Royal Mother will definitely agree.

It's just that it's a long journey.

If I'm going out to teach the skill,

- I may not make it back to Five-Gods Mountain on the same day.
- This isn't a problem.

We can go to explain this to Royal Father together.

He'll definitely agree.

Thank you.

Greetings Royal Father, Royal Mother.

Please forgo the formalities.

Ruo'er, what have you got for me today?

Just a little something, I hope you'll like it.

It smells so refreshing.

- What is this?
- It's the dew from flowers in Ruo's garden.

She collected every drop herself.

It really is something rare.

If Your Majesty likes it, it would be the dew's honor.

I've got a present for Royal Mother, too.

This silk comes from the first batch of silkworms that I cultivated in Ling Yun.

I hope you'll like it.

I've long heard that Liao Ruo's craftsmanship is unparalleled.

You must have inherited your Mother's talent.

This cloak is light and elegant.

What makes it rare is its meaning.

I really love this gift.

I'm glad to hear that, Royal Mother.

There's one more thing I'd like to ask Royal Father and Royal Mother.

Today, I'd like to go to Ling Yun's furthest northern village

to teach the women there how to raise silkworms.

It's a long journey, so I may need to stay there tonight.

Ling Yun values etiquette the most,

so I'd like to ask your permission first.

Sheng Lun,

you really are so blessed to have married someone like her.

The people have been praising

how patient and generous Ruo'er is.

She never holds back when teaching.

Even I've heard the news.

It shows that the two of you have worked hard.

I have no reason to say no to such a good thing.

I shall thank Royal Father on behalf of the people.

A'Mo...

A'Mo!

- What are you doing here?
- Yesterday, I saw you were drunk.

I couldn't wake you up no matter what.

It was windy outside, so I carried you inside.

Thanks.

I'm going to go wash my face; you should go back to rest.

Why have you come?

I received your message yesterday, so I just couldn't stop worrying.

That's why I came to see you.

It never occurred to me that you would show up.

Don't worry!

His Highness, Sheng Lun told me that he has already figured out a way to reject Yuan Han.

When that time comes, I'll be able to marry you then.

Really?

That's great!

As such, no one would blame you.

Jing Shi, I really want to marry you.

But... about the affairs in Xuan Mu,

I just can't let go of them.

Can you give me some time?

I'll wait for you.

When you settle everything,

and Xuan Mu is stable, then

we can hide away in seclusion or run off and see the world.

Either way, as long as I can be with you,

I'll accept anything.

I promise you that

when Xuan Mu is stable,

as long as you still want me,

Even to the edges of the world with you, I'll still be willing.

I didn't expect Royal Father and Royal Mother would agree just like that.
[The Sun and the Moon Rising Together]

I had thought that they felt
[The Sun and the Moon Rising Together]

it went against etiquette to go outside.
[The Sun and the Moon Rising Together]

How would they be inhuman?

Not to mention that you're working hard for Ling Yun.

In addition, people have been praising Royal Father,

which he must have already known.

All right. The impression I had of them before was too rigid.

Your Highness, we have a secret report.

Go ahead! I'll go to start packing.

- What is it?
- It's about Yuan Han.

Royal Father, I think

it's really against Ling Yun's etiquette for Yuan Han

to be having an affair with another man.

Yuan Han initially had been engaged to Jing Shi for a long time.

This engagement is unfair to Jing Shi.

That's why I think that their marriage should be nullified.

How can you cancel something as big as a wedding just like that?

There is still something unclear about this, to cancel the marriage like that is unreasonable.

That's right, Royal Father! How could we just cancel the marriage just like that?

Then what would make it true?

There are rumors and gossip everywhere.

Yuan Han cheated on Jing Shi, but still wants to marry him.

Jing Shi is a Grand General of Ling Yun.

How is he supposed to face the others in the future?

What does that say about the etiquette of Ling Yun?

- You—
- Enough!

How could a woman like this be worthy of

General Jing Shi, who controls the Solar Deity Tribe?

Just cancel the marriage.

Di Yin, when it comes to the bigger picture,

you need to consider the big picture.

I understand I was wrong.

Really?

My marriage with Yuan Han really has been canceled?

That's right!

Is Yuan Han all right?

It feel unjust to her by canceling the marriage on my own.

If this is being unjust, I should be the one to make amends.

Just know that you are no longer bound by the marriage.

- Thank you, Your Highness.
- Get up quickly.

The engagement is finally canceled.

I haven't failed Yun Sang.

Then I'll be waiting for your wedding.

- Don't be angry, Brother.
- How couldn't I be?

It wasn't easy to break Sheng Lun's relationship with the White Tiger Tribe.

And now, he's solved it just like that!

Look at that calm face of his in court,

it's so disgusting.

Brother, what is making you panic like this?

There is still a long way to go.

The future is still unknown.

It sounds like you already have a plan?

The plan has been in place for a long time already.

It's just that you were too anxious to remember it.

This is the mulberry silkworm.

As the name implies, it feeds on mulberry leaves while growing up.

Remember that the leaves cannot have water on them when feeding the worms.

Why is that?

Leaves soaked in water aren't clean as they become rotten.

If the baby silkworms eat that, they'll die from diarrhea.

So be sure to drain the water.

Turns out there is so much to pay attention to when raising silkworms.

That's about it.

You can practice how to identify them.

Huan Xu, I'm feeling a bit tired, so I'm going back to my room to rest.

Don't let anyone disturb me.

You can go help them.

Yes, Your Highness Consort Princess.

Sun-flare, hurry, send this robe to Xuan Mu Mountain.

I believe when Chi Yun sees it,

he'll know that I'm waiting for him in the Valley of No Return.

Chi Yun, this is our last chance.

- Your Highness, are you feeling better?
- I'm all right.

I think I might've been hungry.

Oh, right! Didn't I tell you not to disturb me?

You didn't look so good just now.

I was worried.

Why don't I go make you something to eat.

All right. Then go make something.

A'Mo, what exactly are you trying to tell me?

Why torture me with this?

This is the day of my wedding to Sheng Lun.

Don't you find your offensive actions inappropriate?

Let me just ask you one thing.

Are you Xuan Yang's Ruo or Mu Qing Mo?

You really know how to joke, Lord Chi Yun.

Everyone knows I'm Xuan Yang's Ruo, the Eldest Princess of Xuan Yang.

Now, I'm also Ling Yun's Sheng Lun's wife.

Why would I choose you?

I advise you to just give up.

Don't lose your life over this!

Are you really Mu Qing Mo?

I can't believe these words would come from the Mu Qing Mo whom I know.

You're the one who insisted on calling me Mu Qing Mo.

Let me tell you! I've always been Xuan Yang's Ruo from the beginning.

There is no Mu Qing Mo.

What about our peach blossom promise?

I don't remember any peach blossom promise.

It was nothing but your own wishful thinking.

Your Highness, you ate so little.

I still don't feel good.

I want to rest now, you may leave.

There's no need to clean up; do it tomorrow.

Yes.

♫ I've come to this world alone for better or for worse ♫

♫ I long for a touch and wish for a beautiful story ♫

♫ Looking forward to tomorrow,
I want to take what's in front of me ♫

♫ What should I write about my love for you? ♫

♫ In my world, there's only affection with no regret ♫

♫ I want to fall recklessly in love with you ♫

♫ Although the world is a dangerous place ♫

♫ It'll only make me more passionate ♫

♫ For our love story, I'm willing to risk it all ♫

♫ Even as billows rise, I seclude from the world ♫

♫ To keep you company as we turn back time ♫

♫ The sunrise that fills my eyes and moves me ♫

♫ Is the scribbled drawing I gift you ♫

♫ Who understands this world in my heart? ♫

♫ A small white pear flower blooms ♫

♫ Where does it fall? ♫

Chi Yun, I'm waiting for you just like the last time.

This is our last chance.

If you don't come,

we can only smile and forget each other.

Foxie, do you think Sun-flare made the delivery?

Then will he definitely come?

But…

Why do I feel like he won't come?

He has no idea how strict Ling Yun's rules are.

In order to meet him once,

I've been preparing since six months ago.

I earned the King of Ling Yun's trust and made an excuse

about teaching the women in the village how to raise silkworms,

to be able to get permission to be out here.

I prepared half a year

just for this one night of freedom.

There's so much I want to tell him.

I want him to know my helplessness

and my anger.

Why isn't he willing to believe me?

He's already stood me up once.

Is he going to do it again?

Sun-flare!

Sun-flare, did you make the delivery?

Then he'll definitely come.

Foxie, he'll be here soon!

Look! Do I look pretty?

♫ At first sight, the feeling is so familiar ♫

♫ Yet an oath is like the wind blowing away the clouds ♫

♫ In the river of time, I wonder what year this is ♫

♫ Like minded, I hope we'll persistently reincarnate time after time ♫

What is this?

He sent it back.

♫ In a heartbeat ♫

He's saying that he isn't willing to wear it, is he?

♫ The intertwining of this life has touched my heartstrings ♫

If you don't care, then I don't, either!

Since you have so little faith in me,

from now on, you and I shall never meet again!

♫ Leave a peach blossom as commemoration to resolve the fate of this life ♫

♫ My whole face gives telltale signs that I miss you ♫

Is she really waiting for me?

Since she loves Sheng Lun so much,

how could she come to fulfill some peach blossom promise?

You blossom every year during the same season.

Have you ever laughed at the fickle hearts in this world?

What vows of eternal love?

In the blink of an eye,

it's all just forgotten.

I just never thought that

you wouldn't even be willing to come.

Since you don't intend to keep the promise,

why make it?

♫ The intertwining of this life has touched my heartstrings ♫

♫ I wonder if we'll meet again in the next life ♫

♫ Leave a peach blossom as commemoration to resolve the fate of this life ♫

Freedom!

♫ My whole face gives telltale signs that I miss you ♫

♫ Every inch of land, every year the tree lives ♫

♫ Every flower, and every tree represents my desire for you ♫

♫ Passion is a kind of adoration that goes astray from the original intention ♫

♫ Forget the future, forget the past ♫

♫ Forget my heart, forget you, and forget how we began ♫

♫ The blossoms stain the path of loving you ♫

♫ I pray piously for my long-cherished wish that in our next life ♫

♫ In the human world, only very few emotions are difficult to tell ♫

♫ Memories scatter on the path of loving you ♫

Look at the fallen flowers on the robe!

She was never even here.

Freedom,

I still can't let go of her, and keep having delusions about her.

Maybe, at this moment,

she's living a life of love

with Ling Yun's Sheng Lun in their Splendor Hall,

and being the Princess Consort admired by all.

How pathetic and ridiculous I am

to still have hopes about you.

Freedom.

Let's go!
