The Story of Ming Lan

3

Episode 51

4

Marquis Gu is forcing me to go while I leave my son to him!

5

It's maternal instinct...

6

Get lost! You get lost!

7

Marquis Gu is forcing me to go while I leave my son to him!

8

What about my maternal instinct?!

9

He stole my daughter!

10

Now, he's even coveting for my son!

11

My god!

12

We are right under the feet of the emperor! This is the capital city of Bian!

13

A newly favored official is so devoid of conscience!

14

Devoid of conscience... You get lost!

15

With such a good script, you should be a storyteller in the tiled marketplace!

16

That's right! Be a storyteller!

17

In the past, the marquis drove my older brother away,

18

and then forcefully kept me in the marquis manor.

19

He waited for me to deliver him children,

20

but refused to let me enter his family!

21

It's fine if he wants to kick me out, I'm accepting my fate.

22

But, he stole my children away. Those are my life!

23

Rong'er! Rong'er!

24

- Stop saying it! Leave! Leave!

- Get lost!

25

- He's a bully He's a bully!

- Let her finish! Lte her finish!

26

- All of you, disperse!

- This is too tragic.

27

Let me tell you, it's even a woman of the marquis.

28

He could have easy settled this with spending a few money.

29

He's using his power to bully other intolerably. He's so devoid of conscience!

30

- Rong'er!

- Stop saying it! Leave!

31

While inside that marquis manor, don't know

32

how that marquis wife is tormenting you right now!

33

Salt, tea, liquor, and iron were once the highest sources of income of our government.

34

But now, the salt taxation is so vague.

35

The taxes collected are actually under reported and hard to clearly investigate.

36

If the government still doesn't put any heart to guard against it,

37

I fear that our income from it will greatly decrease and a huge problem will arise.

38

Got it.

39

I've already accepted your memorial.

40

Once I've finished verifying and inquiring about it, I'll make a decision.

41

Í want to file a complaint against Deputy Commander of the Dianqian,

42

Marquis of Ningyuan Gu Tingye

43

for having unclean private morals which is bringing shame to being a government official,

44

and tainting the reputation of the new government.

45

Those messed up internal matters of your own family

46

has now been known by everyone in the streets of Bianjing!

47

It's even more interesting than the stories beign told in tiled markets!

48

Do still want any dignity of a government official?

49

Do you still even care about my dignity?

50

Your Majesty, others don't know about my matter, but don't you?

51

The reason for our first meeting

52

was exactly because I was swindled by that evil woman.

53

She took away my son.

54

Didn't you even help me to search for them for a while?

55

Since I married my wife from the Sheng Family,

56

I stopped my womanizing ways.

57

Who knew that after seeing her beauty,

58

your past affection reignited and got swindled again?!

59

This is not anymore my pre-emperor territory.

60

There are so many things I have to handle.

61

You... And you!

62

You two are not even sharing my burden.

63

Always acting like some idle young men of the capital.

64

Always coming up with a pile of problem to present before me! So preposterous!

65

Royal Father, it's not Zhong Huai's fault.

66

That woman has even stabbed him.

67

But considering that they had children,

68

he didn't had her tied up and sent to Kaifeng Precinct Office.

69

Indeed.

70

With such a thing happening, why didn't you drag her to the local court?!

71

Your Majesty, she mustn't be dragged to the local court.

72

If I send her there, she then would be interrogated and tried.

73

This will just escalate the problem.

74

Not only is this an old debt that's so hard to clearly sort out,

75

since it's a matter about the harem,

76

Empress Dowager who is the head of the inner palace would surely send people to hear the trial.

77

If that happens, then it will just bring trouble to Your Majesty.

78

You say it as if you've made a huge contribution for my sake.

79

Thank you Your Majesty for appreciating it.

80

Isn't it just the same now?!

81

This matter got brought up in the imperial morning court and caused such huge embarrassment!

82

This messed up problem

83

is clearly a malicious intent to frame people by that evil woman.

84

Those scholarly officials initially won't listen to any explanations.

85

When I went to the marquis manor to investigate this matter,

86

Zhonghuai just exposed his chest to everyone,

87

and they stopped meddling.

88

Right now, all are just the claims of Lord Xiao Qi.

89

In my opinion, just drive that woman out of the capital, and then let Zhonghuai

90

be to be spared by that relative of his. This matter

91

will then just naturally pass.

92

I've already sent men to expel that evil woman out of the capital.

93

As for the matters that will arise after, don't be bothered by it anymore.

94

Now that Empress Dowager is plotting.

95

We mustn't let her grab hold of any of our flaws.

96

How could I not meddle?

97

I let that evil woman go so she could go look for Chang'er.

98

I then can follow the vine to the fruit and find my son.

99

Have you ever thought that this evil woman

100

is full of lies and sinister schemes. She just spouts them out when she opens her mouth.

101

Such malicious heart.

102

Always scheming against people with every step. And she's even ruthless and heartless.

103

Even if you find Chang'er, with him being with her for 3 to 5 years,

104

can you really be at ease to raise him in your house?

105

Even if his birth mother is an evil woman,

106

I'm the one who took her in as my woman and impregnated her to bore me children.

107

If there's someone at fault, it's me and not the child.

108

While we are alive,

109

we must admit our mistakes, try to mend our ways,

110

and make up for them.

111

Chang'er is still my flesh and blood.

112

He surely won't totally be like that evil woman.

113

If she has really disciplined him in a bad manner,

114

I also won't tolerate his acts in the future.

115

But as long as there is a glimmer of home,

116

I must save my son.

117

Don't forget to go to the Qi Manor and say some soft words.

118

Your two families are relatives after all.

119

No need to escalate it to such an ugly state.

120

The wordings of the complaint of Young Lord Qi were actually very intense.

121

But His Majesty didn't say anything at all.

122

I think that woman also got expelled out of the capital.

123

Grand Madam,

124

I fear that this move is now useless.

125

Us and those people from Yangzhou has just worked in vain.

126

You're old.

127

Your information isn't that accurate anymore.

128

Grand Madam, you knew something?

129

His Majesty indeed didn't say anything while in the morning court.

130

But after the court meeting, he had him stay

131

and scolded him inside his private chamber.

132

Really?

133

What's precious isn't this news,

134

but the person who spread the news.

135

Guess who it is.

136

How could I know such things?

137

It must be a trusted aide of yours.

138

You're the only trusted aide I have now.

139

Don't be jealous of such things.

140

The person who spread the news is Third.

141

Third?

142

Third went for drinks and bumped into Palace Steward Eunuch Zhu.

143

A news from Palace Steward Eunuch Zhu...

144

After hearing it, Third immediately went to the adjacent manor

145

and had some drinks with his Second Brother.

146

Palace Steward Eunuch Zhu who works by the side of Empress Dowager?

147

Do you now know why this information is valuable?

148

Her Highness especially spread the news out.

149

If you're able to get the help of Empress Dowager,

150

this matter will then succeed with less efforts.

151

Gu Tingye is His Majesty's favored official.

152

The more he's favored, the more he becomes an eyesore for the empress dowager.

153

Just like this tea.

154

The more you want its foam to merge with the surface of the cup,

155

the more you must have the patience to mix it.

156

You mustn't rush, nor be too slow.

157

Not only must the tea bread be good,

158

this tea brush must also help.

159

Then Young Lord Qi would keep

160

bringing trouble to Second Young Master from now on.

161

[ Duke of Qi State Manor ]

162

Zhonghuai's spear is forging ahead with the vigor and vitality of the tiger.

163

It's because your spear is good.

164

Duke,

165

I've already drunk a round of tea, and put off two lanterns.

166

It's daybreak soon.

167

Young Lord is still not done with his official documents?

168

You really love to joke around.

169

It's now the third part of the hai hour (~11 pm) and people are just settling down.

170

Recently, he's getting more appreciation from the palace,

171

hence, is being given a higher amount of documents to read.

172

Appreciation by the emperor?

173

Any official work given by the imperial family mustn't be neglected.

174

But His Majesty's appreciation for Yuanruo's skills isn't just a one-day affair.

175

He might get more documents to read by tomorrow.

176

- This...

- How about

177

- I'll go help out Yuanruo?

- Don't! Don't!

178

There are a lot of official documents in the study. I fear that it's not convenient for you to go in.

179

Indeed.

180

Seeing how it's already late, if I still don't go home, my family might worry.

181

How about I'll just come back tomorrow?

182

Sure! I'll go walk you out then.

183

- Okay, Duke, no need to walk me out.

- Please.

184

Hey, Yuanruo!

185

Hurry! Hurry! Stop him!

186

This... is really a bad karma from the past generation!

187

Young Lord is indeed reading official documents here.

188

I still remember you looked when you were a child.

189

In a blink of an eye,

190

you're already attending the morning court as a scholarly official.

191

Didn't we study together before

192

so as to join the government?

193

That's right. Too bad, we're now standing as rivals, having contradictory discourse.

194

I just want to expose any misdeeds in the government.

195

Of course, I must overlook some private relationship because of it.

196

Private relationship?

197

Which relationship are you talking about?

198

Which does Marquis Gu think am I referring to?

199

You're now calling me Marquis Gu?

200

You came here for official matters

201

and not a private one. Calling you Second Uncle makes me sound like trying to climb a higher social branch.

202

Your house is a ducal house while mine is a marquis house.

203

How is calling me Second Uncle climbing up a branch?

204

You are clearly of higher status than me.

205

I'm unable to understand you now.

206

Before, slanderous words against you are all over the empire.

207

I instead felt that you were an honest and straightforward person.

208

You would never try to embellish your actions or be pretentious.

209

Now, the marquis manor has a good reputation spreading in the whole empire.

210

I also can't understand anymore.

211

- Which part?

- Everything.

212

When we were studying together,

213

I never thought that we will be like this today.

214

Yuanruo,

215

no matter how much you hate me,

216

even if you complain about me until I lose my nobility title and official position,

217

Sheng's Sixth Miss has already married me.

218

She will eventually get buried to my family's tomb.

219

With you doing this,

220

aren't you just making things difficult for her?

221

Marquis Gu, why must you mention your wife?

222

I filed a complaint against you for official reasons.

223

If your actions are upright and aboveboard, what complaints can I come up with?

224

The whole Bianjing know about my character.

225

Have you seen anyone filing a complaint against me because of Manniang's matter?

226

None. Yuanruo, you're a very smart man.

227

Could it be you can't understand the reason behind that?

228

To say that you don't have a selfish reason for it, I don't believe you.

229

This is your private family matter.

230

As an outsider, I don't need to know them.

231

I just know that the streets and tiled markets of the whole capital now,

232

from the old women to the young children, are all taking about how you abandoned a woman after dallying with her.

233

His Majesty also knows very well my matter with Manniang.

234

That Manniang is an evil woman that feigns to be pitiful.

235

- If you believe me—

- His Majesty really knows about it very well

236

or he trusts you very much?

237

You are his subordinate before he became an emperor.

238

You escorted him until today.

239

Rather than trusting you, you think he would trust a wild woman instead?

240

Looks like,

241

you will never believe me anymore.

242

Second Uncle,

243

I grew up with you.

244

I've called you Second Uncle.

245

I've also told you my feelings,

246

entrusted you items to deliver.

247

But now,

248

what was my ending?

249

If the emperor trusts you,

250

what ending would he have?!

251

Yuanruo.

252

If I'm you and I like some girl,

253

I'll immediately seek marriage the next day.

254

When you were still studying in the Sheng Family, you should have sought her hand in marriage.

255

But you didn't.

256

Dragging it out until it was several years after.

257

You dragged it until that princess of the third rank developed a liking for you.

258

You then say that were left with no choice and you fear that your family will die in the hands of others.

259

I told you

260

that if you really want Sixth Miss Sheng and wants to marry her,

261

I'll help you save your father and survive that ordeal.

262

But you didn't agree!

263

In this world,

264

not everyone

265

will stand in the same place to wait for you.

266

Are you just going to blame everything unto others?!

267

They've all been blinded by you, but I won't!

268

I filed a complaint against you this time, nor for private reasons.

269

It's all for the government!

270

Marquis!

271

Our people in Shiliang Village sent a letter. They said that they've followed Manniang to a tomb.

272

Impossible.

273

Impossible.

274

She must be lying.

275

She's best in lying.

276

Husband, drink some tea.

277

Prince Huan...

278

Prince Huan expelled her out of the capital. She must have known that it was my idea.

279

She must be lying to me and just seeking vengeance.

280

This is qibaolei tea that I personally made.

281

Drink it and you'll feel warmer.

282

She's a liar.

283

What evil scheming and plotting have I not seen?

284

She actually fooled me for 7 to 8 years.

285

She must be lying to me. What burning paper money? What tomb?

286

All are just lies!

287

Then, why don't we go take a look?

288

Okay. I'll go. I'll go by tomorrow.

289

Don't wait for tomorrow. We'll go now.

290

Now?

291

If we ride our horse fast, we can arrive there by tonight. It's alright. I'll go with you.

292

You...

293

...are destined to be unable to enjoy bliss.

294

Look at your father.

295

He's now a very high official.

296

Your sister has become the precious daughter of the marquis manor. While you?

297

You developed an illness.

298

Just a matter that can be resolved by taking medicines.

299

But others didn't die, only you did.

300

So useless.

301

So useless.

302

The second half of my life just ended in your hands.

303

That older sister of yours

304

is a natural born bitch.

305

She's enjoying wealth and splendor in that mansion,

306

while you just have to call her before you die. Why must you call her?

307

If you're that capable, try calling her to come here!

308

You are also a conscienceless cheap thing.

309

Leave! Leave! Leave!

310

Chang'er isn't dead yet! You dare burn paper money to curse him?!

311

So, this is your plan.

312

Letting me go so as to let me guide you to where my son is.

313

Can you see that? That's him.

314

You still dare to lie to me?!

315

When I was lying to you, you totally believed me.

316

Now that I'm telling the truth, you just won't believe it.

317

Gu Tingye o Gu Tingye,

318

so what if you've become a marquis?

319

So what if you've inherited a nobility title? In my eyes,

320

you're just a fool.

321

Shut up!

322

It's old soil.

323

Dig.

324

Dig it out for me.

325

Young Master, this...

326

Dig!

327

Yes! Dig!

328

Even if you dig it open—

329

If you still dare say one word, I'll hit you again!

330

Shut your mouth, you hear me?!

331

You...

332

Never ever see Rong'er again.

333

If I see you in Bianjing again,

334

you won't be able to see the sun!

335

- Shitou!

- Here!

336

Personally escort her.

337

Look for a remote village

338

to settle her in. If she dares walk out of the village by a step,

339

tell the head of the communal defense system to handle it.

340

Yes.

341

Take her away.

342

You're devoid of conscience!

343

You dare to put me in house arrest?!

344

Gu Tingye! Gu Tingye!

345

Let go of me!

346

Gu Tingye! Let go of me!

347

Darling Second! I was wrong!

348

Darling Second! Darling Second!

350

Look at auntie.

351

Okay? Give me a smile.

352

Let me put this on you.

353

This...

354

Come, let me hug you, my little obedient child.

355

Hurry. Hurry. Put him on me. Let me hug that little naughty child.

356

With Sixth Little Sister giving such a huge gift. This child might be so happy.

357

This is my first nephew. I'm so happy.

358

Talking about being a main madam,

359

it's still our Sixth Miss that's most capable.

360

That matter about that lowly woman spreading slander on the streets has really caused a huge ruckus.

361

But upon turning one's head,

362

Sixth Son-in-law just entrusted his whole asset on her.

363

Although this jade ring is good,

364

it's no big deal for her.

365

No one has such an ability among us, right?

366

Fourth daughter, am I right?

367

Mother, you must have not known yet.

368

That Concubine Chun in Fourth Sister's harem

369

wasn't able to preserve her child.

370

But Fourth Sister is the most virtuous woman in this world.

371

How could she watch Fourth Brother-in-law,

372

a distinguished sixth young lord of a count family

373

have an empty room and being neglected?

374

Hence, she successively got Fourth Brother-in-law

375

4 to 5 concubines altogether.

376

Now, in this harem of Fourth Sister,

377

other than Fourth Brother-in-law and those concubines,

378

she gets to have the final stay.

379

As a new wife, Fourth Sister

380

actually is showing off a mightier impression than Sixth Sister.

381

Fifth Brother-in-law is also a man brimming with emotional expressions.

382

Too bad,

383

Fifth Little Sister usually couldn't even recite a few lines of a poem.

384

Don't know what you two would talk about behind closed doors.

385

I heard that Eldest Sister's health is still quite weak lately.

386

I've brought some gaming meat from Xiaolu Mountains,

387

mixed it with some ginseng, and made it into a soup to give to eldest sister.

388

It's very nourishing.

389

The hot springs over there is also not bad.

390

If we have time, let's all go there to bath.

391

It's good for the health.

392

Sixth Little Sister, I won't go anymore.

393

Currently, I...

394

...now have a child. I fear that it's inconvenient.

395

It's not yet stabilized, so it's not good to talk about it.

396

I know that you're a good child.

397

We also don't have much relatives here in the capital.

398

Even if you're now married, you should still socialize more, so that you'll have someone to rely on in the future.

399

You also should invite your Auntie Kang to live in your villa for a few days.

400

She and your mother-in-law Grand Madam Qin have always been good friends.

401

Although Auntie Kang is a good friend of Grand Madam,

402

I fear that she might not like Xiaolu Mountains.

403

You still should woo your elder to join you, right?

404

Fourth, you've been sitting here for a long time.

405

Don't you want to see your father?

406

Yes. Grandmother is right.

407

I'll take my leave now.

408

Fifth Little Sister and Sixth Little Sister, why don't we all go together?

409

Ming.

410

A small banquet is bieng prepared in front. We all will be going there to eat.

411

Go look on how the preparations are going.

412

Okay.

413

That girl...

414

Just because she obtained a few blessings, she had to come back here and brag about it.

415

That Gu Tingye is also so wild and arrogant.

416

He would die in the hands of the emperor sooner or later.

417

Madam, lower down your voice. Other people might hear you.

418

What? You think I'll be scared of him?

419

Master is currently in the front courtyard touring the garden with your husband.

420

If they hear your words, your husband might feel awkward.

421

He might vent his anger on you.

422

Sixth indeed have climbed a high branch now.

423

Let's see when she'll fall down.

424

Grandmother, Mother, I'll also go help out.

425

That older sister Kang of yours,

426

I never allowed her to come greet me here.

427

If you can listen to my advice,

428

stop seeing her too.

429

She's still my biological daughter.

430

How could I stop seeing her?

431

What has she been doing to you,

432

you should know it very well now.

433

What mother is saying is so unreasonable.

434

Even if my sister did anything wrong, she's still my biological sister.

435

We are a family.

436

That Gu Family is a pile of mess.

437

How old is Ming?

438

She's only a child who just got married.

439

She also doesn't have a caring elder by her side guarding her.

440

She doesn't know everyone's background.

441

She has to be on guard every day to live her days.

442

Fearing that one day, she might commit a mistake.

443

She couldn't even take care of herself anymore.

444

She hasn't stabilized her footing yet.

445

Yet this person only knows to play the card of a relative and bask on other people's glory.

446

Is a relative like that even worthy to be called one?

447

Sixth Sister's house is so peaceful.

448

Auntie Kang should come to my house instead.

449

That mother-in-law of mine would foil my day every 3 to 5 days.

450

It's good to have an elder to scare her.

451

Ru'er, you've become more sensible. I'm comforted.

452

But you're still just a new wife.

453

Even if that mother-in-law of yours is wrong,

454

one, you must always remember

455

that she grew up in a poor environment.

456

Second, your husband

457

and the scholarly elders are on your side.

458

Grandmother is right.

459

But Grandmother, you didn't see my mother-in-law's face.

460

Everyday, before it's even daylight, she has me stand for rules.

461

Now I'm with child and I still have to wait under the eaves when it's rainy.

462

I have to wait until my husband pleads for me before she lets me go.

463

If we committed any errors on propriety and rules,

464

even if we are with full reason, we have to reduce by three.

465

But with Ru'er.

466

Even if we've kept full propriety and courtesy,

467

and her in-law's still find fault,

468

then our Sheng house won't be afraid either.

469

Yes, we'll all do as you say.

470

Hualan at least married high up.

471

But she suffers at her mother-in-law's.

472

And I struggle to bear the heartache.

473

But Ru'er's marrying low and if still has to suffer,

474

then our Sheng house is a laughing stock.

475

When it comes to marrying,

476

naturally, an even match with equal ranked families is best.

477

We've not committed any fraud or deception in this marriage.

478

No one has to swallow the anger and keep quiet.

479

I will remember this. If anything should go amiss,

480

I will consider it thoroughly.

481

What I tell you today,

482

you really must remember.

483

I have remembered them. I have.

484

Old Madam. Big Madam. Sixth Miss sends words.

485

She says the banquet is set and food can be served now.

486

I won't make my old bones struggle.

487

You guys go.

488

Yes.

489

Rest well, Grandmother.

490

I toast to you, Father-in-law.

491

Drink.

492

Father-in-law.

493

I heard a few days ago, His Majesty went to pay tribute to Prince Shu again.

494

Prince Shu is His Majesty's father.

495

Now that His Majesty is the sovereign master,

496

he still remembers his origin and indeed he's filial.

497

This is just among us family members.

498

So you needn't be so mindful, Father-in-law.

499

I fear His Majesty is once again thinking of Prince Shu's status.

500

Emperor and subject, father and son.

501

These are not something one talk can finish.

502

Eat up.

503

My husband's words,

504

have reminded me of a weary of mine.

505

You should punish yourself with a drink.

506

Alright. I will drink.

507

How have I irked your weary?

508

In a few days, it's my deceased mother's birthday.

509

There's a saying that a day as parents is a hundred days of grace.

510

May father, on the account of the past affection,

511

hold a grand ritual for my mother.

512

And bring her tablet from the farmstead.

513

To hold it at Yuqing Monastery so we can burn some incense.

514

So she's not left homeless.

515

Shut up. How dare you mention that again.

516

Yes. I shouldn't.

517

Just that lately,

518

I keep seeing my mother crying to me in my dream.

519

So I feel so uneasy.

520

I don't know if in the underworld,

521

she's too cold or she's suffered.

522

May Big Madam take pity on me.

523

Let me hold a ritual.

524

Big Madam, don't worry. I definitely won't use public fund.

525

We'll pay for it ourselves and it's our offer of devotion.

526

May Father can come to the ritual,

527

and help me burn an old item to my mother.

528

Count it as contributing a merit.

529

Eat up.

530

What merit talk?

531

Just mentioning it is enough to dirty up our Sheng gate.

532

What do you mean, Mother-in-law?

533

It's just random matters of the house.

534

Eat up. You eat.

535

I think next month's eighth day is an auspicious date.

536

How about you make a trip to Yuqing Monastery that day?

537

A minor thing like putting up a tablet.

538

It won't take much of your time anyway.

539

I'm giving a day off that day actually.

540

Father. My mother's also at Yuqing Monastery.

541

Everyone's family.

542

That's perfect. She can keep sister-in-law's mother company.

543

It's better not to accompany her.

544

This. We're here for a joyful reunion so why bother talking these?

545

Let's all just eat first.

546

Sixth Sister is high ranked and powerful now.

547

But family matters are still up to Father.

548

Just a pity that my mother's all alone in the farmstead.

549

So lonesome.

550

As her daughter. I . . .

551

Alright. Alright.

552

Mo'er just wants to hold a ritual.

553

To help her transcend.

554

Father.

- To spare her.

555

Try this fish. I made it myself.

556

You've been conferred a title and things are going your way.

557

But you don't need to stuff my mouth.

558

Sixth Sister. She's married in a lofty house.

559

But you can't just ignore me, your older sister.

560

Can't be that, you're waiting for me to kneel and beg you?

561

Fine. I can kneel.

562

Get on up.

563

Sit.

564

What older sister kneels to the younger sister?

565

Sixth sister-in-law, this is my wife's private matter.

566

And it's up to Father-in-law to make the decision.

567

It's no bother to you so why do you interfere?

568

She wanted to kneel herself. I didn't tell her to kneel.

569

What was that?

570

A family is eating together and you throw things and act tyranny?

571

You're still not the boss of this house.

572

Since the old days,

573

no murderer,

574

is worthy to stand before the dead.

575

What?

576

You still don't know?

577

Lin Qinshuang is the murderer of my mother.

578

What nonsense is this?

579

Nonsense!

580

It's not nonsense.

581

Fourth Sister, unless I'm dead,

582

you can forget about ever bringing Lin Qinshuang's tablet

583

to place at Yuqing Monastery.

584

Such nonsense!

585

Qinshuang was such a tender soul.

586

How could she have caused your mother to die?

587

Everyone in the family knows your mother died from child labor.

588

How is this possible?

589

You dare to slander my mother?

590

I have witness and testimony.

591

If you don't believe me, we can go to Keifeng Precinct.

592

Are you trying to ruin our family's reputation?

593

All the servants go out.

594

And you two.

595

It's fine.

♫ One morning, a flower opened and approached a willow tree,

beautifully fragrant and mistaking him for her lord ♫

599

♫ Even if drinking in water in the morning, red clouds have half a day of sunshine

the wind and rain do not affect them completely ♫

600

♫ in the palace, you are constantly brave and growing thin

from on high, your cold tears of distress flow ♫

601

♫ Brocade letters delivered to me dismiss me, only suddenly to recall me

Not for many years can I see you other than stealthily ♫

602

♫ Last night, gusty winds and rain

during my deep slumber did not spoil the wine's lingering effect ♫

603

♫ When I asked someone, they rolled the blind up and told me that all the crab-apple trees are as before ♫

604

♫ Don't you know, don't you know, there must be flourishing leaves and fallen flowers? ♫
