What a useless fool she is.

After all my years of careful nurture,

she was actually
pushed to the edge by a young girl.

She even wanted to cut off my arm
and kowtow to apologize to Liu Wencai.

They must have gone mad.

You dare to speak of nurturing us.

Since we were young,

you just treated my sister and me
as tools to gain power.

If not for your careful nurture,

would Shuran

have gone mad?

Do you even see me as your father?

Do you even remember that you're a father?

Then you should do
what a father should do.

What do you mean?

Write a letter to His Majesty
and resign from your position

saying it's your fault
for not teaching your child well

and you're willing to become a monk

to pray for the dead daily
to atone for your sins.

Are you crazy?

Why would I do that?

To save Shuran.

For your sister's sake,

you're willing to abandon your father?

You'll only stay
in the temple temporarily.

After the dust settles,

I'll find a reason to bring you back

and you can continue your luxurious life.

That's easy for you to say.

This incident caused such a commotion.

Who knows how many years
I have to stay at the temple

before things settle down?

If you don't help her,

you'll lose more than just one daughter.

You...

Old Madam, the medicine is ready.

It will be delivered tonight at 7 p.m.

Everything

is my fault.

I thought

I managed the Jiang household well.

But I still let the Ye family fall
into the Ji family's trap.

That poor child died too early.

Leaving Li'er behind
is already pitiful enough.

Yet I didn't believe her.

Claims of matricide and fratricide

were thrown at her,

which filled her with despair
and disappointment.

Now that I think of it,

it was absolutely absurd.

Old Madam, don't blame yourself too much.

Back when Madam Ye was alive,

Madam Ji was still an outsider.

No matter how careful you were,

you couldn't guard against outsiders.

There's no need to comfort me.

A mistake is a mistake.

Old Madam, Ms. Jiang Li
requests to see you.

Li'er, you should get more rest.

Grandmother,

may I know

what will happen to Madam Ji?

Your father and I have discussed it.

We've asked them to prepare the medicine.

It will be given to her later.

All right.

I can go and see her off.

I have a few final words to say to her.

You can go to her

at 7 p.m. tonight.

Thank you, Grandmother.

Li'er.

Li'er.

I've done you wrong.

I know you've been wronged
all these years.

Even though we found the real culprit,

we still can't clear your name.

But don't worry.

If you ever need anything,

the family will do its best to help you

as long as it's within our ability.

It doesn't matter anymore.

Old Madam, Consort Li sent a message.

Today, Duke Ji resigned from his position,

saying that everything Ji Shuran did

was not her intention

and that she was manipulated by others.

But he is aware of the severity
of her sins,

so he decides to become a monk
to pray for forgiveness.

Her Highness pities Madam Ji for being
manipulated and controlled by others.

Though her crimes are severe,
they're understandable,

so she asks Chancellor Jiang
to spare Mrs. Jiang's life.

Chancellor Jiang,

did you not hear my words clearly?

I heard them clearly.

Li'er.

Where are you going?

It's such good news.

I must quickly tell Mother.

Let her go.

We've wronged her.

We did her wrong.

Consort Li,

the message has been delivered.

Chancellor Jiang has agreed.

-You may go.
-Yes.

Jiang Li.

Ji Shuran.

It's time for you to pay for your sins.

Ji Shuran, you got what you deserve.

It's time to pay for Yue'er's life.

Shuran, stop resisting.

Come and join me.

Come and join me.

-Stop resisting.
-No.

Ji Shuran,

it's time for you to pay for your sins.

Pay for my Yue'er's life.

Come and join me.

-No.
-I've waited for you for so long.

Ji Shuran,
it's time for you to pay for your sins.

-Pay for my Yue'er's life.
-Come and join me.

You got what you deserve.

-Come and join me.
-Pay for my Yue'er's life.

What are you doing here?

I'm here to see you off.

Don't try to scare me.

I am the matron of the Jiang family.

My son, Jiang Bingji,
is Chancellor Jiang's eldest son.

My sister is His Majesty's
favorite consort.

I still have the Ji family.

You can't do anything to me.

Matron of the Jiang family?

Have you forgotten

how you got your position

in the first place?

What are you trying to say?

Concubine Hu told me everything.

I heard Ji Shuran telling Ms. Sun

that the physician who treated Madam Ye

had returned to the capital

and needed to be silenced.

Silenced?

Are you saying my mother didn't die
from being weak

after giving birth to me?

Even if she was weak,
she could still recuperate slowly.

By the end of her postpartum care,

her health was improving.

Then suddenly, her condition worsened

and she didn't last six months.

Thinking back,

it's possible that Ji Shuran bribed
the physician who treated Madam Ye

to tamper with her medicine.

That wretched woman.

Despite being mad, she even slandered me.

My husband would never believe her words.

Once I get out of here,
I'll teach her a lesson.

If you want,

I can send you to meet her.

What?

Concubine Hu went to reunite
with her daughter.

Before leaving, she left me a letter

accusing you of poisoning my mother.

Do you want

to go to hell to settle this with her?

Guards! I want to see Chancellor Jiang!

Open this door!

No use shouting for help.

Ji Shuran,

Grandmother and Father used
to care for you

because you lost a child.

But now, it's clear

that your misery

was all part of a plot you orchestrated.

You're also aware

that sacrificing lives
lets you earn trust.

Now, your retribution has arrived.

Those who died unjustly

can't accept it.

They want to seek justice.

Even in death, they won't let you off.

You can't beat them, Ji Shuran.

Remember this.

Starting today,

no one in the Jiang family
will believe you again.

Jiang Li,

even if I die, I won't let you off.

I won't let you off even after I die.

Fine, go and find her then.

When you meet Jiang Li in the underworld,

she'll be the first to come after you.

What did you say?

You...

You're not Jiang Li.

Do you know

how much Jiang Li suffered

in Zhennv Hall in the past ten years?

She was supposed to be a carefree daughter

of a noble family
who was doted on by her father.

But what happened?

It wasn't enough
for you to kill her mother.

You also tarnished her reputation

and sent her away.

You handed her over to those people,

letting them torture her to death.

They tortured her to death, Ji Shuran!

Can you even imagine
how much she suffered?

Can you?

Do you deserve forgiveness?

I was also forced.

I had no choice either.

I didn't have a choice.

It has been ten years, Ji Shuran.

You had countless chances

to save her and yourself.

But you did nothing.

You only have yourself to blame

for ending up like this.

From now on,

you must reflect on your evil deeds

every day of your life.

I was forced too.

I was forced to do it.

Li'er.

Li'er, I was forced.

Li'er.

Li'er.

I was forced to do it.

Ms. Ruoyao, be careful.

Ms. Ruoyao.

-Ms. Ruoyao, you're not well.
-I want to see my mother.

Ms. Ruoyao, you must get proper rest now.

-I want to see my mother.
-Ms. Ruoyao.

Madam Ji will be fine.

Consort Li already gave instructions,

so no one will harm her.

I only want to know

if she felt even a bit

of reluctance and pity
when she fed me poison.

How is she now?

She has gone mad.

Do you feel for her, Father?

What do you plan to do with her?

Since she has gone mad,

let her guard the tomb.

So she will know

what Concubine Hu had gone through.

Li'er,

do you hate me?

I didn't know

she was this vicious.

Back then,

when your mother's condition
worsened day by day,

I thought she was just in poor health.

I never thought someone harmed her.

If I had known,

I would never have let Ji Shuran

set foot in Jiang Residence.

And I shouldn't have accused you
of matricide and fratricide,

neglected you for ten years,

and

almost caused you to lose your life.

Li'er, do you still resent me

for the exorcism?

I don't hate you.

I've forgiven you.

Li'er.

Father.

If you want to hear

such words,

I can say them to you.

But do you think

I can forgive you?

You can never imagine

what I went through in Zhennv Hall.

Over those ten years,
I had to fetch water, cook,

do laundry, and mend clothes.

I endured hunger and cold weather,

fell on the ground,

and was looked down on.

Every day, I hoped
for my family to come and fetch me

or just send a letter.

But there was nothing.

Absolutely nothing.

So I gradually lost hope.

KIND AND MORAL REPUTATION

I felt completely abandoned.

I wanted to return to the Jiang family

and tried hard to make it happen.

But even that wish

couldn't be fulfilled.

Miss.

Father,

why don't you tell me?

Tell me

how to recover from the scars

these ten years have left on me.

Only the wounds heal.

But scars will always be there.

One's actions lead to consequences,
resulting in family discord.

Your Li'er

can't come back anymore.

You...

You're not attending
the imperial court session anymore?

Ruoyao has been making a ruckus
about seeing her mother.

I want to take her away
from the capital for a few days

to ease her mind.

What about Li'er?

As she wishes,

Ji Shuran will guard the tomb.

Won't you stay in the capital?

Now is the best time for you and Li'er
to mend your relationship...

Mother, maybe distancing myself a bit

and not interfering with Li'er's affairs

is what she truly wants.

Fine.

Congratulations on your great victory,
Your Highness!

You have achieved a lot
in this expedition.

We'll have a hearty celebration tonight!

-Prince Cheng!
-Prince Cheng!

Come on!

-All right. You may go.
-Yes.

My sister

is useless.

Although we lost
the Imperial Diviner Office,

there were unexpected gains.

The Ji family has fallen

and the Jiang family
has paid a heavy price.

Jiang Yuanbai was devastated

and took a leave from the imperial court.

That means our people are dominating

my brother's imperial court now.

Since there's nothing else,

let's adjourn.

Your Majesty,

Prince Cheng

reclaimed another territory in the north.

The Emperor of Dai has retreated over 5 km

beyond the northern border.

The people on the northern border
are also settled.

Such great news is worthy of celebration.

We should reward Prince Cheng

to boost the soldiers' morale
who serve the nation and the people.

How should I reward him, Minister Li?

Even if Dai retreated,

they still harbor
ill intentions toward us.

We should increase Prince Cheng's troops

to fortify our northern borders

and deter Dai.

What do all of you think?

I second the motion.

-I second the motion.
-I second the motion.

-I second the motion.
-I second the motion.

Such a hateful play!

Those ministers have become
Prince Cheng's supporters.

With Jiang Yuanbai absent,

only Li Zhongnan's supporters remain.

Your Majesty, don't be anxious.

Prince Cheng's impressive
military achievements

inevitably make the imperial court wary.

Your Majesty, you must not lose
your composure now

and cause unrest among the people.

I am well aware of this.

But it's hard not to be angry.

Prince Cheng has his own plans.

But we have our own plans as well.

I just received intelligence

that the internal strife in Great Zhao
is about to end.

Has the prince
of Great Zhao taken control?

Yes.

The situation in Great Zhao
just stabilized.

The prince of Great Zhao

has successfully ascended to the throne.

What he needs the most now
is a reliable ally

to prevent the remnants
of the rebel forces

from rising again.

If we have such an ally in the south,

the additional troops Prince Cheng has

are thus insignificant.

How do you know he will ally with us?

The emperor of Great Zhao
is young and has no heirs.

He only has a younger sister.

She fled to our nation
during their internal strife

and I saved her in the south.

She has been here since then.

Did you plan ahead?

Good.

We'll congratulate
the new emperor of Great Zhao

and invite their delegation here

to discuss forming an alliance.

This must be done grandly

to show everyone our bond with Great Zhao.

All right, I'm on it now.

By the way,

such an important event

was usually done
by the Chief Secretariat Jiang Yuanbai

with the Ministry of Rites
and Court of State Ceremonial.

With him on leave

and the Minister of Rites
promoted by Li Zhongnan,

the alliance meeting
might have issues if we fully trust them.

Do you have a suitable candidate in mind?

Since you asked,

you must have someone in mind already.

What do you think of Shen Yurong?

He is quite talented.

But you must be aware of his background.

Do you think

your pawn will give up

the chance
to approach Shen Yurong this time?

Are you going to put that pawn

in danger?

Are you worried she will be in danger?

If a pawn enters a perilous situation,

it will become useless to us.

In the past,

you were the most ruthless at Go.

You taught me to sacrifice one piece

to save the game.

Why do you hesitate now?

I just want to fully utilize her.

Xiao Heng,

are you getting emotionally involved?

I am not.

You'd better not be.

Have you found Situ Jiuyue yet?

My lord, why do you insist on finding her?

Last time, she got angry with you
for no reason

and took all our liquor
in the Duke Mansion.

My lord, I mean
Situ Jiuyue likes to disappear

into the deep mountains and forests.

She won't come out
for ten days or even half a month

unless she finds
the medicinal herbs she wants.

Send more people.

We must find her
before the Great Zhao delegation arrives.

Yes.

Your Highness,

our agents recieved information

that Great Zhao is sending
their delegation here.

Great Zhao accepted the invitation.

In the two nations' alliance meeting,

Great Zhao's emperor
will personally lead the delegation.

Great Zhao becoming close to Great Yan

is a variable for us.

Any countermeasures?

The alliance is not unexpected.

But they're coming here too soon.

What do you mean?

During the internal strife in Great Zhao,
their princess fled here.

The main purpose of the emperor

coming personally is

to bring the princess back.

Zhao Ye has probably
already found this princess.

That's why their emperor is coming quickly
with the delegation in person.

Its success and failure
depend on the same person.

If the princess of Great Zhao dies

in Great Yan,

that brother of mine
will be attacked on all sides.

Go and keep a close watch on Xiao Heng.

Investigate everyone
he comes into contact with.

Yes.

Mr. Shen, you've completed
the book compilation.

This time, you are also
in charge of welcoming the delegation,

which shows
His Majesty's deep trust in you.

Your future is indeed bright.

This is indeed worth celebrating.

My son isn't very talented
but has some musical knowledge.

Can he perform the flute at the banquet

for the alliance meeting
between the two nations?

I am merely doing my duty
for the imperial court.

I cannot be compared to you all.

As for the talents needed
to receive the delegation,

I'll compile them
based on the specifications

of the Ministry of Rites

and arrange them accordingly.

Those who wish to contribute

are welcome to submit their names.

Thank you in advance then, Mr. Shen.

-We'll take our leave.
-We'll get going.

I'll take my leave now.

Mr. Shen,

the arrangements for
the grand alliance meeting are extensive.

Do take care of yourself.

If you need anything,

I will do my best to help.

Thank you.

YE RESIDENCE

Eat more.

Eat more.

Eating.

All you do is eat.

Jiang Li is already so thin.

As her cousin,
can't you talk some sense into her?

You know what Li'er's temper is like.

Besides, I'm not her only cousin.

Why aren't you scolding Ye Shijie?

The imperial court is selecting reception
envoys for the Great Zhao delegation

who will perform at the alliance banquet.

With Li'er's qualifications,
she will surely be chosen.

Maybe finding something for her to do

will make her feel better.

I wonder if she's willing to participate.

I'll be counting on both of you

to persuade her then.

Let's eat together.

What did you say?

He said he wants you to join him.

Here, eat up.

All right.

Everything will be fine.

Li'er.

The Great Zhao delegation
will arrive in a few days.

The imperial court
is selecting reception envoys.

Are you interested in joining?

I just heard Jingrui and Liu Xu say

they will participate.

If we are chosen,

our team can be together again.

No, I just want to rest for now.

After this, you...

Liu Xu, and Jiang Jingrui

shouldn't come and see me again.

I want some peace.

Xue Zhao.

Father can eat and drink normally now.

Although he still doesn't remember us now,

as long as he's alive,

there's hope.

TOMB OF XUE ZHAO

When I first came to the capital,
I was alone.

But now, I have Father

and friends
who went through thick and thin with me.

Xue Zhao,

I am very fortunate, right?

But I

would rather be alone.

That way,

no one would be dragged down
because of me.

Tong'er...

Zhao Ke brought back the person

you asked him to find.

She doesn't trust people at all.

Be careful when you see her later.

Haitang.

Haitang.

Haitang,

it's me.

Haitang, it's me.

Don't be afraid.

Don't touch me!

Don't touch me.

Don't touch me.

It's me, Haitang.

It's me.

I'm Xue Fangfei.

Haitang.

My lady.

It's me.

You're still alive.

I'm still alive.

Let me take a look at you.

What happened to your face?

It's nothing.

I thought

I would never see you again.

I'm sorry.

It's my fault.

I should have...

I should have taken you with me back then.

I'm sorry.

What happened after you left?

After I delivered the message
to Mr. Xue Zhao,

someone put a sack over my head
and knocked me unconscious.

Come on. Throw her here.

Let's go.

When I finally regained consciousness,

I was already in a mass grave.

They left probably because they thought

I was dead.

After escaping death,
I didn't dare to be seen

or go back to my hometown.

I was afraid they would catch me.

So I wandered in the neighboring county

for a few months,

eating leftover food daily.

After a few months,

I returned to my hometown
and saw my younger brother.

After asking around, I learned
about what happened to the Xue family.

Haitang,

you've suffered.

I'm sorry.

My lady, don't be sorry.

Those who harmed us
are the ones who should be sorry.

I should have fought
the Shen family back then.

I only want you to live well.

I just want you to live on.

Get proper rest here.

I'll have someone take good care of you.

Duke Su,

I have a favor to ask.

Is it about the scar on her face?

Yes.

If Jiuyue comes to you,

please inform me.

I want to ask Jiuyue
to treat Magistrate Xue and Haitang.

You know she uses poison.

You're risking their lives for survival.

I trust her.

I'll send someone to notify you
when I find her.

Duke Su.

After you.

Do you know

how to truly protect someone?

Don't push the person
you want to protect away

from you.

Keep her close

within your sight.

Is that how you do it?

I don't need to do that.

Duke Su, you just can't
get rid of the habit

of eavesdropping on people.

It's because you were speaking so loudly.

So it's my fault.

At least you know your mistake.

Are you going to the reception envoy
selection for the Great Zhao delegation?

Why do you want me to participate too?

Shen Yurong is in charge of this.

Duke Su,

you once told me

the story of Duke Huang of the East Sea.

Today, let me tell you

the story of A Beauty's Return.

A gentleman became infatuated

with a beautiful lady during his travels

and promised to marry her.

However,

he abandoned her
and returned to the capital.

By order of his parents, he married
a noble family's legitimate daughter.

Little did he know,

this woman bore a striking resemblance
to the abandoned lady,

not just in looks but also in mannerisms.

The gentleman was convinced

that the noble family refused to marry
their real legitimate daughter to him,

so they found a substitute bride.

And ironically, the substitute bride
was the abandoned lady.

Throughout their marriage,

the gentleman was consumed
with proving his suspicions.

Guess what happened in the end.

He killed the noblewoman.

Duke Su, why do you enjoy
stories full of bloodshed so much?

Could it be

that they became lovebirds?

Let's wait and see.

I'll put on a good act for you.

Why do you think
Jiang Li isn't participating?

Didn't she want to seek guidance

from Shen Yurong before?

Why did you hit me?

You fool. What else could it be?

She must be feeling down.

With so much going on
in your family lately

and Tong'er gone,

who would be in the mood to study
or seek guidance?

People like them who love learning

find it therapeutic.

If you don't believe me, ask Ye Shijie.

Since Jiang Li doesn't want to join,
let's not bring it up anymore.

Let her have some peace and quiet.

We shouldn't disturb her either.

We can't do that.

We can't leave her alone.

Are you discussing the reception envoy?

What is wrong with you?

-You should've made some noise.
-Jiang Li.

Where did...

Shijie,

did His Majesty ask Shen Yurong
to handle the reception envoys?

Yes.

I want to join.

TO MR. SHEN

SHEN RESIDENCE

JIANG LI FROM THE SCHOOL OF INTEGRITY
REQUESTS TO JOIN THE RECEPTION ENVOY

JIANG LI

Yurong.

Can I help
with welcoming the Great Zhao delegation?

-Just leave it there.
-All right.

TO MR. SHEN

JIANG LI

JIANG LI

Yurong,

how's the reception envoy
for Great Zhao going lately?

It's all right.

Your sister told me that

many from the School of Integrity
submitted self-recommendation letters.

Did Ms. Jiang Li also submit one?

Listen to me.

We're able

to enjoy fine food

and live a comfortable life

all because of Her Highness.

Before you do anything,

remember not to upset Her Highness.

Do you hear me?

Her Highness.

You always talk about Her Highness.

Is the Shen family Her Highness's dog?

What are you saying?

Do you think everything we have now

is given by Her Highness?

What about my years

of dedication
to the imperial court and His Majesty?

The money we have

for our family's daily expenses
is my hard-earned salary,

not Her Highness' rewards!

Mother is just concerned about you.

She's afraid you'll make wrong decisions
and fall from grace again.

You remind me day and night like this.

How would I dare to make any mistakes?

Yurong will surely
understand your intentions.

The reception envoy
selection results are out.

It's already out.

Ye Shijie,

Liu Xu's letter and mine were approved.

The four of us can be together again.

-What's wrong?
-Jiang Li didn't receive her letter.

She didn't receive one?

She's the most outstanding among us.
It's impossible not to be approved.

You're so silly.

He said she didn't receive it.

Even if it's not approved,

the letter would be returned.

Could it be
that Jiang Li's letter is lost?

It won't be lost.

Mr. Shen probably has yet
to make up his mind.

What do you mean?

I need a favor from you.

What do you need me to do?

I want him to come to the residence

and personally invite me.

Your Majesty,

the schedule for the delegation's
reception has been completed.

For the details,

I've requested the Ministry of Revenue's
Vice Director Ye Shijie to draft it

into a document.

Please review it, Your Majesty.

-I'll take my leave now.
-All right.

Your Majesty,

I'd like to suggest that

Ms. Jiang Li perform
"Spring Fading into White Pear Blossoms."

This song is well-known.

If she is selected
to join the reception envoy

and perform at the alliance banquet
for the Great Zhao delegation,

it will surely impress them

and make their visit enjoyable.

I've heard Mian Ju
mention this several times.

He has always praised Jiang Li's
"Spring Fading into White Pear Blossoms."

I wanted her to perform it

at the palace banquet before.

But I had state affairs to attend to

and left early.

During the Annual Exam,
you were also present, Minister Shen.

What do you think?

Your Majesty,

it's indeed an excellent piece.

Ms. Jiang Li is not included

in the reception envoy.

Did she not submit
a recommendation letter?

She did submit one.

But considering

the recent events in the Jiang family,

I haven't approved it yet.

Do you also think an evil spirit
possessed Ms. Jiang Li?

I am aware
of the Jiang family's situation.

However, supernatural matters
aren't appropriate for open discussion.

Minister Shen, you're being narrow-minded.

I apologize.

Vice Director Ye, I will approve
Ms. Jiang Li's letter right away.

You are her cousin.

You can pass it on to her.

Mr. Shen.

This is an official matter.
It'd be improper for me to pass it on.

Besides, since you didn't approve
her letter before,

Ms. Jiang Li might have misunderstood.

If you don't go,

how can I explain it clearly?

My lady, you're truly insightful.

Mr. Shen has indeed come to see you.

He's outside right now.

With the alliance meeting approaching,

how do you have the time to visit me?

I have a request today.

In today's meeting
about the alliance banquet,

His Majesty mentioned
he wanted to hear you play

"Spring Fading into White Pear Blossoms."

I played it once

at the Annual Exam
at the School of Integrity.

I didn't expect His Majesty
to hold it in such high regard.

Your great guqin skills are renowned

throughout the capital.

With such fame,

people are bound to talk about it.

It might be best for you to stay low-key.

"Spring Fading into White Pear Blossoms"
has a sorrowful melody.

With the Great Zhao delegation
coming for the alliance meeting,

playing this might be inappropriate.

So I wish to ask you
to appeal to His Majesty

to decline this performance.

Stir with emotions and convince
with sound reasoning.

Those who don't know better

would think you're very considerate of me,
making profound plans for me.

I just think you can see
the bigger picture,

which is why I came to seek your help.

If you're unwilling,

I will inform His Majesty

of your resignation from this task.

Sorry for the trouble today.

I'll take my leave.

BLISSFUL FAMILY AND PROSPEROUS CAREER

Mr. Shen,

what are you afraid of?

Ms. Jiang Li, what do you mean by that?

If you don't want me
to join the reception envoy,

you could have just rejected my letter.

But you didn't reject it or approve it.

You hesitated.

You should know

what I am hesitating about.

After all,
your intentions are too obvious.

My intentions?

Have you misunderstood something?

You can fool others,

but not me.

Mr. Shen.

Should I call you foolish

or do you flatter yourself?

It seems like

you still see me as your late wife.

Since you're so certain,

why did you oppose Her Highness

before His Majesty?

You should know best

that I

am the daughter of the Chief Secretariat
and Grand Preceptor,

not your infamous late wife.

Even if I do look like her,

so what?

In that case,

why do you insist on joining
the reception envoy I manage?

My maid died protecting me.

She was like a sister to me.

I am sad and heartbroken.

I have been in despair for days.

I just want to enjoy the lively atmosphere
of the alliance meeting.

Is that wrong?

If you insist on rejecting my letter,

please do not impose your feelings

for your late wife on me.

Instead, find a more convincing reason.

Otherwise, people might think

you have a guilty conscience.

You should leave now, Mr. Shen.

Son.

Listen to me.

We're able

to enjoy fine food

and live a comfortable life

all because of Her Highness.

The way you talk is heartbreaking.

It's a pity I can't adore you
during this time.

My maid died protecting me.

She was like a sister to me.

I just want to enjoy the lively atmosphere
of the alliance meeting.
