[The Double]

[Episode 13]

Mr. Shen.

I didn't know Princess Wanning
was having

such an exciting time here.

I should have come earlier.

Duke Su, His Majesty ordered me
to entertain the scholars.

What's it got to do with you?

If Your Highness
only take arrows without arrowheads,

then it's none of my business.

Unfortunately, Your Highness
wanted to get the arrowheads,

but your eunuchs
had no say in the matter.

Of course someone
would have informed me.

It seems you're trying to get in my way.

How dare I?

I've been ordered
to keep the banquet in safe hands.

It's fine if you're having some fun
after drinking.

Mr. Shen is so courageous

to say, "Don't worry
about my life or death".

But how am I going to explain

to His Majesty if someone dies?

That means you must spoil my fun.

It's my duty.

If Your Highness want to enjoy yourself,
please get His Majesty's permission.

If His Majesty approves,

I'll open the armory

and bring Your Highness
all the arrowheads

you need to kill.

Duke Su, you're so devoted to your duty.

I'll tell His Majesty about it

and ask His Majesty

to promote you.

I'm willing
to share His Majesty worries.

[Prosperous Era]

Thank you, Duke Su.

You thought you mastered it?

I...

I'm sorry.

His Majesty wants you all

to have a good time.

I'm sorry,

Mr. Shen.

It's okay.

Li, I had no choice.

Kill her.

Xue Fangfei,

I could crush you as if you were an ant.

Jiang Li.

I'm sorry.

I just felt like you were about to fall.

I'm fine.

I just wanted to get some air.

Don't take it personally.

Princess Wanning has gone too far.

You're Grand Chancellor Jiang's daughter.

She won't dare do anything to you.

Let me walk with you.

We'd better go back first.

It's not good for people to see us

alone together.

Sorry for being thoughtless.

Ye, where have you been?

- Come on, have some drink.
- Come on, have some drink.

Quick.

Come on.

[See you at Yuxiu Pavilion at the East Gate
behind the garden, Zhou Yanbang.]

Li,

you were so brave
in front of Princess Wanning,

I'd like to make a toast to you.

Yu'e, I can't hold my liquor.

I've had enough. I can't drink any more.

We're sisters

and we have a close bond.

Why don't I have tea instead of liquor?

Li, if you replace it with tea,

you'll be letting me down

for wanting to get along with you.

If that's the case,

I'll drink the liquor.

Li.

Yu'e.

I'm feeling

dizzy.

Sit down quickly.

Okay.

[Qiongyu Pavilion]

[See you at Yuxiu Pavilion at the East Gate
behind the garden, Zhou Yanbang.]

How dare you have a secret meeting?

I'll expose you.

What can a note prove?

There are a few tea rooms here

specially arranged by Concubine Li

for you to rest.

Mr. Ye, you can rest here for a while.

I'll go and get some refreshments.

Ye Shijie, sober up.

You're not drunk?

The Ye family is in business.

We often drink a lot.

Some of those who came here today

were just toasting,

others were just pretending to drink.

I'm not a bad drinker

and I didn't drink too much today.

So I just pretended to be drunk

to see what their intentions were

and then I was brought here.

Just now, you...

I was just trying to wake you up

because you were asleep.

Why did they

bring us here?

Should I say you're smart

or stupid?

What else happens when a man
and a woman are alone in a room?

Of course they want us
to get drunk and sleep together.

Don't talk nonsense.

I'm just trying to tell you
about their intentions.

So they're doing this

to match us up?

Don't you get it?

They drugged you in order

for us to commit adultery,

thereby ruining my reputation

and the Ye family's future.

After all, you've just
been appointed by His Majesty

as the Serving Officer
of the Ministry of Revenue.

So they're trying
to kill two birds with one stone.

Yes.

You didn't fall for it. Neither did I.

What will you do

if I get really drunk tonight?

It will be fine.

When that happens, I'll stab you

and get out of here.

People will just think
there's an assassin in the palace.

Can you really bring yourself to do that?

It may be selfish of me to say this,

but you can't understand
until you've been through it.

When you've lost your virginity,
you'll be denounced by all.

Anyone,

even the vile,

can humiliate you and spit on you.

Even if you have a great grievance,
you can't express it.

You are my cousin, and I
would be guilty of hurting you.

But I'll never

go to that hell in my life.

Where are you going?

The people outside are gone.

If we don't leave, shall we wait
to be caught in the act of adultery?

But if you appear before them now,

they'll know right away
that their plan has gone awry.

I'll find a place to hide.

You need to find a hiding place, too.

I thought you weren't coming.

I didn't expect you

to really have me in your heart.

Li, I really want to marry you.

You really are a rose with thorns.

Duke Su,

why are you here?

If I'm not here,

shall I follow you

to see you and Mr. Ye
sleeping together after drinking?

You're spying on me again.

I've been ordered to guard the palace.

I know which brick

you're stepping on.

Why did you want to kill Shen Yurong?

I didn't.

Have you forgotten
that I taught you archery?

There are so many people tonight.

There's more than one person
who's suspicious of your identity.

There's been a lot of fallout from this.

How did you get out?

Can you let go of me?

No.

You...

There's another man in custody
at the Ministry of Justice.

You've got each other's lives
in your hands.

Have you ever thought

that if another person's hand
were to reach out?

What do you know?

You think

you're the only one who can fool me?

What exactly do you know?

I know nothing.

I've been a judicial officer
for many years,

I've been in a lot of cells,
and I've seen a lot of punishment.

No one

can withstand the severe punishment.

Li, you're too impulsive tonight.

How dare you say you admire Shen Yurong?

An arrow has no way of turning back.

Weren't you scared when the bow was off?

Aren't you the way of turning back?

Is that easy to use me?

What will it cost me?

I haven't thought about it.

But this is the third favour you owe me.

I need a lot.

We'll talk about it when you can

afford it.

Duke Su.

Do you really know which bricks
the people in the palace

step on?

What do you want to know?

I want to know

which bricks Shen Yurong
and Princess Wanning are stepping on.

You've already guessed it.

Why are you asking me?

Didn't you ask me

why I was so impulsive tonight?

I'm not you. I don't have many spies.

I can only risk my life

for the truth.

Is the truth

so important

to you?

It's more important than my life.

Girls, we've been eating
for a long time,

why don't we go for a walk
and admire the moon?

- Okay.
- Okay.

Good idea.

Let's go now.

Let's go.

Let's go.

I'm a bit thirsty.
Let's have a cup of tea.

Sure.

I'm thirsty, too.

I'll come with you.

Let's go.

[Qiongyu Pavilion]

Where are they?

Yeah, they've had their drugs.
They can't have gone far.

They must have gone somewhere else.

Let's go over there and sit down.

This table is too small.

It's a bit crowded for us.

Why don't we walk around

and check out the other tea rooms?

Sure.

[Yuxiu Pavilion]

Look, the flowers are blooming here.

It's so beautiful.

We'll have a look round there later

when we get out.

Okay.

[Yuxiu Pavilion]

Let's go in and take a look.

Li.

Li.

Oh my God.

Isn't this...

Isn't this Jiang Ruoyao's fiance?

He doesn't want the first daughter,

but the daughter of the concubine's son
of the Jiang family?

How come it's you?

Ruoyao, I was drunk.

Ruoyao, I was drunk, too.

Go away.

Slut, how dare you seduce my fiance!

Mr. Zhou, help me!

Get down from there!

Get down!

Get down!

You slut!

Shameless!

Slut!

[Jiang's Residence]

It hurts.

All right, all right.
It'll be done in a minute.

You apply the medicine on her face
at night, in the morning, at noon.

You keep applying it all day.

What else do you do

besides applying medicine?

You can't handle anything that matters,

and we're ostracized
for everything trivial.

We've suffered so much

in this residence.

Look at how your daughter's face
is ruined.

You're the head of the family,

and all you do is apply medicine?

We just deserve to be bullied.

Her virginity is gone,
her face is ruined.

We should just swallow our grievances.

If a dog was bitten,

it would have to bark.

Enough!

Get out.

My girl, you've had a hard life.

Mother, it's not hard.

I want to marry Mr. Zhou.

What nonsense are you talking about?

Mr. Zhou is Ruoyao's fiance.

With your father's position,

how could you get a chance
to compete with Ruoyao?

If you want to marry
into the Zhou family now,

you'll be pushing Ruoyao
and her parents to the very limits.

By then, all of us

will be in deep trouble.

My face was ruined by Jiang Ruoyao,

my innocence
was ruined by Zhou Yanbang,

no decent man will want me.

Can I stay at home
for the rest of my life?

Or will you send me
to Zhennyu Hall, Father?

You...

What nonsense are you talking about?

Things have come to this,

all you do

is blame me.

Jiang Ruoyao

is the daughter of Uncle

and you taught me to be inferior to her

and let her humiliate me.

I've been cowering until now,

and I've seen Jiang Li getting matched
with an official of the third rank.

Have you ever planned anything for me?

Now that I'm one step ahead
of Jiang Ruoyao,

I've overtaken her,

and before Ruoyao's parents rage,

my father is trampling on me first.

Why can't I marry Mr. Zhou?

My girl,

[Loyalty and Generosity]
you... You're embarrassing yourself.

You've not only ruined your own life,

you've also ruined
the honor of our family.

How can you blame us parents
for not planning for you?

What else can I do?

I'm just the daughter
of a concubine's son.

I wish my father
were Secretariat Director.

You...

[Loyalty and Generosity]

You usually don't care
about your daughter,

but today you're trying to slap her.

I think our daughter's right.

Because you're a concubine's son

we're always inferior.

Your brother...

What's great about your brother?

A concubine's son, a concubine's son.

I'm a concubine's son, okay?

[Loyalty and Generosity]
It's all my fault.

Pull yourself together.

Now is not the time to cry.

We need to find a way

to get through this.

There's no escaping it.

Jiang Ruoyao's marriage is ruined.

Do you know how much efforts
my brother and sister-in-law

have put into this marriage?

We're safe and sound here

because they haven't come
to us to settle the score yet.

I don't think so.

Why are you staring at me?

No one can be certain
about relationships.

It's the young master of the Marquis

who raped our daughter.

Our daughter is the victim.

How could Ji Shuran not stand up for us

and let Jiang Ruoyao

disfigure our daughter's face?

I'm going to fight back.

[Loyalty and Generosity]
My dear, stop causing any trouble.

Even if we get away with it this time,

Yuanbai won't let Ruoyao

and Yu'e share a husband.

Shuran won't let it happen either.

That's for the future.

It's imperative

that we don't put Yu'e

and Jiang Ruoyao at odds.

As long as they have a common enemy,

it'll be easier.

You mean...

Jiang Li.

Madam Sun.

Go

and get someone to clean this place up.

And get her everything new.

Yes.

Have you had enough?

I took her with me as a loyal dog

who wouldn't take food from anyone

no matter what.

I didn't expect her to steal my man.

Mother,

how could I swallow this anger?

You don't think you're wrong enough?

What did I do wrong?

Even if you were mad at Jiang Yu'e
for seducing your man,

you shouldn't have slashed her face

in front of everyone.

Take her home and close the door.

You'll have a thousand ways
to torture her.

Now that Jiang Yu'e's disfigured,

your father is the head
of the family at home,

and a generous and
loving grand chancellor at work,

she has totally lost her face,

so if she cries herself to death
in front of your father,

we'll still have to save her.

You've vented your anger,

but you don't realise you've given her
a chance to get away.

She's a dead fish,

but a single inch of force

is enough to turn her over.

She seduced my fiance first.

Where's the evidence?

If she claimed
that Zhou Yanbang raped her,

what could you do?

So it's my fault

that things turned out this way?

Am I going to stand by

and watch her ruin my marriage?

There's no turning back

on your engagement to the Zhou family.

Your father will never allow you

to marry into the Zhou family.

If you insist on marrying,

the Zhou family won't dare
to take you in.

Whether you accept it or not,

this is the reality.

Retribution. It must be retribution.

If I hadn't listened to you

and set up Jiang Li and Ye Shijie,

I wouldn't have got this.

You think you're justified in
not doing your job properly?

Do you think Jiang Yu'e
could have seduced

Zhou Yanbang on her own?

You've been engaged
to Mr. Zhou for quite some time.

If she wanted to seduce him,

why didn't she do it earlier?

Are you saying

she's being used?

Who do you think is the happiest person

in this family now
that you and Jiang Yu'e

are in such a mess?

Jiang Li.

If the engagement is gone, so be it.

I'll find you a better match myself.

But this score

must be settled with the person

who really did this to you.

Yuanbai, you're here, too.

If you have anything to say,

say it now.

Yuanbai,

just... Just punish me.

Get up and speak. This is inappropriate.

It's my fault for ruining Ruoyao's marriage
to the Zhou family.

I failed to teach my daughter well.

I'm sorry,

I deserve to be punished.

You made too much of a mess yesterday.

That's the palace,

not your own backyard.

I understand why you're angry.

If this were to be pursued,

it would be a disaster
for both of our families.

They're really ridiculous.

But His Majesty has not said anything.

That's because they're lucky.

I have reached a private agreement with

Marquis of Ningyuan's wife.

After all, it's a disgrace
for either of us.

They're trying to cover it up, too.

The rumor can't be stopped,

but nothing more will happen.

All the officials

looked at me with scorn today.

Yuanxing, if Yu'e
was really interested in Mr. Zhou,

she should've said so earlier.

Why did she have to do

such a shameful thing?

It's my fault as a father
that I didn't teach my child well.

Please punish me, Mother.

And your good daughter

slashed her own cousin's face.

If this infamy gets out,

who'd dare to come to the door
to propose marriage?

Mother, it's really Ruoyao's fault.

But she's been in love
with Mr. Zhou since they were kids,

so it's understandable
that she lost her head on impulse.

If Yu'e hadn't made the mistake first,

Ruoyao wouldn't have acted like that.

Anyway, it's all Yu'e's fault.

I've brought Yu'e here today.

You can punish her

as you wish, Yuanbai.

Ruoyao and Yu'e usually get along well.

It's not like we've been close

to the Zhou family for a day or two.

Since Ruoyao hasn't married yet,

I can see that the children

get along well.

Why did Yu'e

suddenly make such a mistake?

If Ruoyao hadn't seen it
with her own eyes,

I wouldn't have believed it.

If she hadn't been set up,

she

wouldn't have dared to do it.

Set up?

Who set her up?

Yu'e, it's better
if you speak for yourself.

Uncle, Aunt Shuran,

I'm not good at drinking.

But on the day of the palace banquet,

Li kept pushing me to drink.

When I got dizzy and wanted to rest,

she helped me

and said she'd take me
to the tea room to rest.

As far as I can remember,
we walked for a long time.

Now that I think about it,

I'm afraid we were in that remote place.

When we got to the door of the tea room,

she left.

I was so dizzy and feeling sick,

I didn't think much of it.
I just wanted to rest,

so I went inside.

But Mr. Zhou was there,

drunk

and mistook me for Ruoyao.

Then...

Yu'e.

I was in a panic

and tried my best to struggle,

but I was too weak
under the influence of alcohol

to resist the man's strength.

Then, Ruoyao appeared.

If that's a remote place,

why would Ruoyao go there?

I...

I dare not speculate.

Yu'e.

Say it, Yu'e.

Just say it.

I heard someone say that

after Li helped me to the tea room,

she told Ruoyao

that she couldn't find me.

Ruoyao was worried about me,

so she came to the tea room in a hurry.

Then... Then...

How could this happen?

It's my fault.

It's all my fault.

If I'd known the limits of propriety,

I wouldn't have received

the drink from Li at the banquet,

and I wouldn't have made
such a terrible mistake.

Get Jiang Ruoyao and Jiang Li
here to explain the matter.

Let's get this straight
between the two families.

We'll find out whose fault it is.

That day's banquet was too dangerous.

Fortunately, you took precautions,

and the investigation went smoothly.

Unexpectedly smooth.

Miss, but that person is

Princess Wanning.

I'm afraid it's going to be
even harder from now on.

I thought

that the audience with His Majesty
would be a chance for me

to break through the veil

and make her come to me.

But I never expected it

to be Her Highness

who gave the order
and no one dared to disobey.

Miss, you don't sympathize
with Shen Yurong, do you?

Killing a wife is a mortal sin.

Sympathy?

He doesn't deserve it.

Miss, what are we
going to do from now on?

Second Lady,

Master Jiang has asked you
to go to Wanfeng Hall,

saying he has something to ask you.

Miss, them asking you
to go there at this time

is not a good sign.

The backbiter

has made a move.

Li,

what happened in the palace yesterday?

Father,

I was drunk yesterday.

May I know what you want to ask?

Stop pretending.

Explain what happened
between Jiang Yu'e and Zhao Yanbang.

You want to ask about it, Ruoyao?

Yesterday, I was a little drunk
from all the liquor

Yu'e made me drink.

So she helped me
to rest in a nearby room.

I only heard

about Mr. Zhou and Yu'e
when I woke up today.

Nonsense.

How could you not know?

If it wasn't for you,

how could Yu'e

get into Zhou Yanbang's room?

It was you who deliberately

lured Yu'e there.

That's right. I didn't know
Mr. Zhou was in there

until after I went in.

What a coincidence.

A few moments after Yu'e
helped me into my room to rest,

another man entered my room,

led by an eunuch.

Do you know who he is, Ruoyao?

How could I know?

It's Ye Shijie.

He was also drunk
and wanted to find a place to rest,

but somehow he was brought to my room.

Luckily, although we were drunk,

we both knew that it wasn't proper

for a man and a woman
to be in the same room.

So we went out separately.

By the way, I've heard
something interesting.

Ruoyao,

when you opened the door
to Mr. Zhou's room,

before seeing anyone,

you shouted,

"Li."

Why?

You're talking nonsense. I didn't.

The other scholars who
were with you that day

heard that.

Why are you suddenly denying it?

It's not uncommon to call the wrong name
in the heat of the moment.

Don't be so nervous.

Father,

after I entered the room,

Ye Shijie came in short after,

and we immediately went back
to our respective seats.

Ye Shijie can prove

that I didn't have time to send Yu'e

to Mr. Zhou's room.

Ye Shijie is your cousin.

Of course he sides with you.

Maybe you're all in cahoots.

I forgot about you.

You said I sent you

to Mr. Zhou's room.

But why didn't you call
for help when he was about

to do something to you?

There are so many people
walking around in the palace.

If you had called for help,

things might not have come to this.

That's because

if I made a noise

and someone found out,

it'll ruin Ruoyao's

and Mr. Zhou's reputation.

Ruoyao,

are you touched?

Yu'e'd rather ruin her own reputation

to protect yours and Mr. Zhou's.

You two are really loving sisters.

Li,

stop irritating your sister.

She's more upset

than anyone else after what happened.

I felt bad for her too,

but I never thought
I'd be the one to blame

for all this.

Can't I say something in my defense?

Stop quibbling.

You're the one who slandered us.

Maybe Ye Shijie
was already involved with you

during the Entry Exam,

so you used him as a shield.

If you don't trust Ye Shijie,

you can't disbelieve Duke Su, right?

What's he got to do with it?

Father.

Since Yu'e sent me to my room,

I didn't know where
I was going when I left,

and I ran into Duke Su on the way.

Duke Su sent me back to the front hall.

Father, I know you want to do justice

to Ruoyao.

But it's not a big deal to push me out,

but if people know
that we sisters do not get along

and can slander each other
without proof,

I wonder what kind
of evil intentions they will have.

Father, please consider.

Jiang Li, stop pretending!

Ruoyao.

Uncle, please be wise.
You can't just let it slide.

My life is so miserable.

Uncle, how am I going to live my life?

What will happen to my daughter?

Enough!

How can you fight over
such a family scandal?

If word gets out

that you sisters
are slandering each other,

it'll be a big joke.

Since it's come to this,

what's so important
about right and wrong?

Don't you think about

what will happen to Yu'e

now that she's been disfigured?

What should we do next
when Ruoyao's fiance

did something like this?

Mother, you're right. I did
not handle the situation well.

I'll discuss with Yuanxing and her wife

about how to resolve this.

You guys go out and talk,
don't bother me here.

Yes.

Li,

stay back.

What's going on between

Yu'e and Mr. Zhou?

Grandmother, you adore me the most

and I won't hide anything from you.

Last night, Zhou Yanbang
gave me a small note.

I ignored it, but fearing
that others would find out,

I kept it with me,

thinking I'd dispose of it
after the banquet.

It was only when I heard
about Yu'e and Mr. Zhou

that I realised the note on me

had disappeared.

What a shameless girl.

Get up.

Do you realise your mistake?

I should have hidden the note.

This has nothing to do with you.

I'm talking about your faults.

Grandmother.

Remember what I told you?

You told me to

take care of myself

and my sisters in the palace.

Don't keep it to myself
if anything happens.

Come back and tell you.

What did you do?

Why didn't you tell me about it?

You can only clarify things

after you've been

slandered badly.

Then you have to fight with the one

who slandered you.

We're family.

We share the same honor,
we share the same loss.

At the end of the day,
you'll have to swallow this grievance.

Grandmother.

Do you still not trust me?

I dare not.

No matter what happens in the future,

you can tell me.

I'm not the kind of person
who can't tell right from wrong.

But it can't go unpunished.

I'll punish you to copy
the sutra ten times.

As for Ruoyao and Yu'e,

they'll be punished
for copying Lessons Women 20 times.

I accept the punishment.

Father, why do you want me
to marry Jiang Yu'e?

Who is she? How is she worthy of me?

What?

You still want to

marry Jiang Ruoyao?

Father, I beg you.

I know I was wrong.

I'll apologize to Ruoyao.

She'll definitely forgive me.

Forgive you?

Father.

I can't believe you
made such a big mistake.

You're in deep trouble, and you
still haven't come to your senses!

Do you think you can
really marry Jiang Ruoyao?

Look carefully.

The Jiang family's letter of withdrawal
has been sent to our residence!

Although Jiang Ruoyao
is the daughter of the concubine's son,

things have come to this,

if no one wants to marry her

and she becomes confused
and kills herself,

His Majesty will be furious,

not to mention that Grand Chancellor Jiang
will not let us go,

and we won't be able
to keep all of our ancestors'

honor and titles.

Do you understand?

Father, but I...

Listen here.

How you treat Jiang Yu'e
is your business,

but she lost her virginity
because of you.

The Zhou family must give her a title.

[Qingning Palace]

The road was paved for you,

but you took a wrong turn

and let others take advantage of you.

You're right.

I'll teach Ruoyao better in the future.

As long as Jiang Li
is still in the Jiang family,

there will be ways to deal with her.

If I hadn't defended you
in front of His Majesty,

I'm afraid this wouldn't
have ended so easily.

Thank you for your hard work.

Any news lately?

I heard the imperial physician say
it'll be bad if it's a few years later.

Did Father tell you to ask me that?

No, it's just my own silly thought.

It wasn't a silly thought at all.

It's not like it's urgent.

I'm older now.

Not like I was when I was young.

I've heard about the compassion
of the Buddha at Tianxiang Temple,

so I'm going to go
there for a period of time

to recuperate

and for my blessings of offspring.

If you're going to meditate,

I'd like to ask you for something.

It depends on what you think.

Just tell me.

If so,

just let me teach her some manners.

♪If there are no happy memories♪

♪How can we traverse
the forbidden land of sorrow?♪

♪Two cold and unfeeling bodies♪

♪Holding hands, can we
get through the snow season?♪

♪In the cold wind, in the long night♪

♪Embracing the remaining warmth♪

♪The depth of the sea, unfathomable♪

♪Can it bury yesterday's sighs?♪

♪Continue to love,
cherishing it with my life♪

♪Continue to live,
even with only a glimmer of hope♪

♪Whether in sorrow or joy,
I believe in you♪

♪I'd rather be trapped
in the world's extremes♪

♪Continue to live,
exhausting all courage♪

♪Continue to love,
until the breath runs out♪

♪Traversing half a lifetime of
loneliness, just to meet you♪

♪After the hardships,
never to part again♪

♪After the hardships,
never to part again♪
