[Moon Love]

[Episode 5]

[Imperial Censor's Mansion]

Please let me in.

I've already made an appointment with His Lordship.

How about

ask His Lordship out

and let him tell you?

[Impartial and Incorruptible]

Miss Zhaoyan.

There are dozens of people in the Imperial Censor's Mansion.

His Lordship won't be able to

attend to every post.

So, you can stay by utilizing your strengths of

finding loopholes and being impudent.

This is what His Lordship asked me to convey.

His Lordship needs me.

Why am I the impudent one?

Forget it.

As long as I can stay,

it doesn't matter.

When can I meet His Lordship?

I want to thank him in person.

"I don't want to see her face."

"Ask her to stay away from me in the future."

This is also what His Lordship said.

His Lordship has poor eyesight.

It's hard for him to notice you.

I've also noticed that, too.

The Imperial Censor's Mansion is short of servants.

Now, it is the time for flowers to wither.

[Impartial and Incorruptible]

His Lordship doesn't like these petals.

It's a trivial matter. No problem.

[Governor's Mansion]

What?

Isn't today the last day of the harem selection?

How can it end so abruptly?

What about me? I haven't participated yet.

The matter of the Wen family has caused panic.

People from Shengjing were afraid of more trouble,

so they stopped the selection and went back to the palace early in the morning.

I just changed into such beautiful clothes

and put on such beautiful makeup.

What should I do now?

Why am I so unlucky?

Qing,

I have something to tell you.

Yun Zhaoyan.

You still remember her, right?

Yun Zhaoyan?

She works in the Imperial Censor's Mansion.

I know you two

have had grudges since you were little.

Look.

She ruined your business as soon as she came back to Qingzhou.

Don't you think you two are...

[Young Gu Qing]

Monster! Monster!

You're just a little monster.

Monster! Monster!

Don't come over!

This jinx!

How dare she come back?

I'm going to meet her.

My goodness.

Yun Zhaoyan has entered the Imperial Censor's Mansion.

She works for Ren Shique.

You know about Ren Shique.

He's hard and cold,

just like stones.

You'd better

have some snacks,

have some tea, and calm down.

I'll go back now, okay?

Don't hurt her!

Leave me alone.

I have my own way.

[Imperial Censor's Mansion]

Who are you?

Why did you break into the Imperial Censor's Mansion at night?

Mind your own business.

You look suspicious.

I'm afraid you can't leave today.

I...

I'll play with you, then.

Not bad.

You're a woman.

So what if I'm a woman?

Are you proud of bullying a woman?

Let go of me. I admit defeat.

Daohuang, this is the Imperial Censor's Mansion.

You can't give up on your life, right?

Aren't you afraid of His Lordship?

Everybody is afraid of him.

Suit yourself!

Zhaoyan.

Brother Xie.

When will your work here end?

Soon.

I have something to ask you.

Let's go back together later.

Ask me?

Sure.

I'll go to the front hall first.

I'll come to you later.

Kanxu.

Are they so close now?

It's Guigui.

Didn't I tell you

not to appear in my sight?

But, My Lord, you walked down to this place yourself.

Is there anything unusual around here?

How can there be anything unusual

while My Lord is here?

Anyway,

you have to stay further away from me.

Do you hear me?

My Lord, I have conveyed that.

Please wait, My Lord.

I'm sorry, My Lord.

Why are you apologizing suddenly?

You have the red-clothed renegade immortal after you,

so you must have experienced something terrible in the past.

In the past?

I shouldn't have exposed these scars

just so that I can stay.

But I think

that as red-clothed renegade immortal has been following you all the time,

she must hope

you can let go of the past pain

and live a carefree life.

If you can see her,

let her stand in front of me honorably

and tell me

what her reason is.

I know

you hate her.

No.

I have no feelings for her.

How can there be no feelings between people?

All I care about is the truth

instead of the so-called feelings.

You are like this

just because you miss her too much.

Mother!

Since the pair of eyes

is the bane,

I'll take them back.

♫It's hard to distinguish what's good and what's evil, and it's hard to love or hate someone♫

♫We meet and part, coming to nothing♫

♫Regardless of the chaos and fate♫

♫I only love you with deep affection♫

♫I'm a lonely person and tears trickle down my face♫

♫I dare not face so much sorrow♫

♫Puzzled, I'm too sad to play the guqin under the moon♫

My Lord.

You...

♫I want to hear you talk about romantic things♫

From now on, just do your job.

Don't say anything else.

Yes.

My Lord, I have something else to say.

Please forgive me.

My Lord,

thank you for listening to me for so long.

No one has liked to listen to me

since I was seven.

They all think I'm crazy.

Don't get me wrong.

I didn't let you stay in the Imperial Censor's Mansion.

But that doesn't mean

I will protect you.

My Lord.

You are the Imperial Censor of Qingzhou City.

You won't mind protecting a small potato like me

from time to time, right?

I'm a night guard in Qingzhou City.

Everyone avoids me.

Why do you still approach me?

Because

you are very important to me.

Fine.

I'll give you a chance

that may lead to my protecting you.

What is it?

As long as

you can make all the flowers

bloom at the same time,

I allow you

to seek shelter beside me occasionally.

But these flowers are withered.

How could they bloom suddenly?

That's your business.

My Lord, the flowers are blooming.

I didn't expect that some renegade immortal

would dare to be so reckless before me.

I haven't seen such a beautiful scene in ten years.

What's so special about it?

My Lord, you've seen the world.

Of course I can't compare to you.

My Lord,

so, does your promise count

or not?

When did I promise you?

You just promised me

if all the flowers in the garden bloomed,

you would let me hide by your side.

Why can't I remember?

My Lord, you can't go back on your word.

You promised me!

I'll follow you, then.

The top-quality tassel. Come and have a look.

Princess, take your time.

You have such good taste.

This tassel is made of silk.

It's very smooth, soft, and light.

It's a perfect gift

for your husband.

Who said I'm giving it away?

Princess, no!

Have you heard that the Princess has no chance to be an imperial concubine again?

She is so beautiful.

But who would know she's a female demon?

Exactly! The Double Demons of Qingzhou

One is fierce and domineering, and the other can't get married.

I think they can marry each other.

It'll be counted as getting rid of the evils for the people.

That's right.

My Lady, you can't cause any more trouble.

Do you also think I can't get married?

No, of course you can.

Xiaocha.

Yes.

I want a matchmaker.

[Governor's Mansion]

Why are there so many ugly men?

Is there no decent-looking man

in Qingzhou City?

Qingqing, since the news of

you looking for a husband got out,

the threshold of our Governor's Mansion

has almost been worn out from all the visitors.

These...

are already the ones

who have been carefully selected.

Look.

Which one looks like it's been carefully selected?

I've tried my best.

When those men knew you were the one looking for a husband,

they either closed the door or pretended to be sick.

Some gave money to the painter

to have their portrait painted with a pockmarked face.

How about

taking a closer look?

No.

These men are really no good.

I don't like any of them.

You're making it so difficult for me.

What do you mean?

Is it hard for you to find a husband for me?

Brother,

do you also think I can't get married?

No, no.

How could I

say that about my fairy-like sister?

Since the news that you want to seek a husband

spreads throughout Qingzhou,

men in Qingzhou

flock to our mansion.

The gate of the Governor's Mansion

is going to be worn out.

Look.

Look at those people.

They all come to our mansion

to apply for the Princess's Consort.

Look, look. They're not bad, right?

There are really many people

who want to marry Princess.

Let them wait.

I have my own plan.

My Lord.

His Lordship, the imperial censor, said he had something important to do,

so he asked me to report

the case of the lost woman in the Wen family.

He has something to do.

He asked you to come

because he didn't want to come, right?

My Lord,

the case of the Wen family is closed.

The daughter of the Wen family

has been safely sent to Shengjing.

Also…

Deputy Censor Xie, wait a minute.

Ding.

Come here.

Governor.

How is it?

That person has been sent to the Princess.

Okay.

But it is said that they were...

Okay.

Pay them more.

More money.

Okay.

The case of the Wen family is solved.

The harem selection has ended successfully.

These are all pieces of great news.

It happens that the bright moon reappears in the city.

The people take it as a good omen.

Holding the Moon Worship Ceremony again

is what the people want.

Let's see who dares to stop it.

The fifteenth day is just in a few days.

Why don't we hold a make-up Moon Worship Ceremony?

Yes.

I will go and convey your message.

Go back then.

Wait.

In these days,

I'm going hunting in the outer suburbs

to relax.

I might stay there for a while.

There's been a lot of trouble in the city lately.

You need to strengthen patrols.

Avoid any more trouble.

Yes.

Go.

No.

I have to hide far away.

I can't let Qingqing find me.

My ears.

This...

This is so scary.

My Lord,

you asked us to act,

not to die.

-That's right. -Yeah.

Well...

What a bunch of losers.

Who else wants to try?

The winner

can enter the next round

of my husband selection.

I'm willing to be a vegetarian.

Just don't pick me. Don't pick me.

Don't pick me.

You...

Me?

No, no.

It's him.

How dare you attack Princess?

[Seeking Plum Blossoms in the Snow]

If you hurt Princess, Governor will definitely punish you.

I didn't know Princess was selecting a husband.

If I offended you,

please forgive me.

Why would she listen to you and forgive you?

No one dared

to treat our Princess like that.

Princess, how do you want to punish him?

We don't have to punish him.

I'm gentle, kind, and friendly.

Since he didn't mean it,

we don't have to blame him.

My Lord,

am I right?

Thank you, Princess.

What's your name?

I am

Xie Guichen.

Xie.

Gui.

Chen.

Why does this name also win my heart?

Xie Guichen.

I remember you.

You have to remember my face,

the most beautiful face in Qingzhou.

Next time you see me,

you must recognize me.

Xiaocha!

Let's go.

[Imperial Censor's Mansion]

Who is it?

Who is it?

Daohuang, why do you scare me?

My Lord! My Lord! Where are you?

My Lord. My Lord.

I was reckless.

I didn't see anything.

I didn't see anything.

Stop!

Shame on you!

Come here. I have something to ask you.

Who allowed you to enter the inner hall?

I didn't mean it.

That renegade immortal, Daohuang,

suddenly scared me.

He kept chasing me. That's why I...

Didn't you say that as long as I'm here,

there will be no renegade immortal around here?

But there really was one.

Yun Zhaoyan.

I agreed to allow you to stay in the Imperial Censor's Mansion,

but I also warned you

to stay away from me.

It seems that you really don't care

what I said.

I won't offend you again.

My Lord,

don't kick me out.

If you act recklessly again,

I will never let you stay here.

Alright.

Go out and sweep the yard.

And get off work.

Don't wander around in the Imperial Censor's Mansion.

Okay, I'll go now.

Thank you, My Lord.

I didn't expect

she saw these hundreds of years.

My Lord.

Yun Zhaoyan, what are you thinking?

Don't go.

Don't leave Zhaoyan.

I miss you so much.

The moon will be full soon. I won't run around.

What gibberish is she talking about again?

This kid…

She didn't even take an umbrella when it was raining.

She just came back in the rain.

Mother.

Is it you?

Miss Yun is so unlucky.

Whatever.

I'll give you a try of my strong medicine

to bring down the fever quickly.

Mother.

Don't go!

Don't go!

Chang Xi.

Mother.

Is it you?

Tonight, there is a full moon.

The mortals always draw an analogy between the full moon and the reunion.

Although we are separated by the Soul Collecting Lamp,

we can look at each other through lights.

I don't ask for much.

I just hope to be with you

on every full moon.

It turns out

everything was a lie.

Are you

by my side now?

Zhaoyan.

It's Master.

Yun Zhaoyan.

Did I overindulge you recently?

How dare you come uninvited?

You...

Xi.

What did you call me?

Where is Yun Zhaoyan?

Call her out to see me.

Princess has been on patrol for a month.

You still look radiant and beautiful.

You're as vulgar as before.

You just can't appreciate my fairy-like beauty.

If all fairies were like you,

no one would want to be immortal.

You talk as if

you've seen the fairy in the heaven.

Ask Yun Zhaoyan to come out now.

I have a lot to tell her.

Princess, why don't you try the tea

and snacks in our mansion?

No need.

I really don't know what you're thinking about,

letting such a person in the Imperial Censor's Mansion.

Don't blame me for not reminding you.

Yun Zhaoyan

is mental.

You're not much less mental than her.

You...

I really don't get along with you.

I get unhappy whenever I meet you.

See the guest out. I have a lot to do in my Imperial Censor's Mansion.

My men

have no time to see the Princess.

If I can't find her here,

I'll have other ways.

Even the most arrogant fairy in the heaven

is not so overpowering.

Let go of me! I admit defeat!

My Lord.

We heard a noise.

Are you okay?

I'm fine. It shouldn't be a thief.

My Lord, you just came to Qingzhou City. There are no thieves here.

Yes.

I might believe you if you say there are demons or ghosts.

But thieves or robbers

dare not come to Qingzhou.

Why?

There are Double Demons of Qingzhou here.

One is the Imperial Censor,

and the other is the Princess.

When the bandits from the surrounding villages in a ten-mile area

hear the news about them,

they'll take a detour.

Yes.

The Princess is scarier than a tiger.

Yes.

She's scarier than a bear.

He doesn't believe us?

He's not afraid.
