Episode 11

Xiao Tan!

Take this!

Xiao Tan! What happened to you?

Why are your clothes all wet?

Jing Xin, hurry and bring me some new clothes!

Alright!

- Jing Xin! Hurry and prepare some ginger soup! - Yes!

Are you injured?

No. I'm just very cold.

Cheng Cheng.

Your Highness, the ginger soup is ready.

Let me do it.

What is this? I'm not drinking it!

It's cooking from hell!

If you don't want to be treated by a Royal Physician

and treated with acupuncture, you must drink it.

Fine, fine, my body is more important.

It was so hard to snag a handsome guy!

If I get sick and he's stolen by another woman,

then won't I lose out a lot?!

What are you thinking about?

N-Nothing.

Give it to me.

Why did you go to Qu Manor today?

Ah?

Um... it was that old woman!

She wanted to torture me, so she called me over there!

I'm okay, it's alright.

I've gotten used to it. My parents don't care about me.

I can only care for myself.

You are my woman.

From now on, only I can care about you

and love you.

For life and into eternity, I'll protect you.

Jing Xin, when did the Prince leave?

He left early in the morning.

Xiao Tan... you're not in love with the 8th Prince, are you?

Jing Xin! What nonsense are you saying?

I'm the 8th Princess Consort!

Are you supposed to be nosy about the 8th Princess Consort?

That's right, your Miss clearly went to see Mo Yi Huai yesterday.

How did she end up at Qu Manor?

I'm not sure about that either.

But I know that the First Prince has already become the Crown Prince.

What?!

It's true. The entire city knows by now.

This is what everyone is talking about now.

Could it be because of what happened yesterday?

Jing Xin! Go and call Yu Hao here!

Yes.

So... Mo Yi Huai didn't want to see Qu Tan'er yesterday at all!

He had a different plan!

But what does that have to do with the Crown Prince position?

Miss, Yu Hao is here.

Greetings, Princess Consort.

Yu Hao! Tell me what happened yesterday!

You must tell me everything!

Yes.

Yesterday, just to decide the Crown Prince, His Majesty used the love yearning and heartbreaking tea to test the princes.

8th Prince showed that he is meticulous, intelligent, and skilled which garnered the King's praises.

Later on when the princes were waiting outside the library,

the First Prince hinted that you might be in danger.

The Prince was worried so he had me come back to investigate.

Indeed, you really weren't here.

Even Jing Xin didn't know where you had gone.

The Prince was worried about your safety and immediately left the palace.

But just then, the King summoned him inside.

Could it... have been for me?

I caused him to lose the Crown Prince position.

Am I more important than the Crown Prince position?

Leave! All of you leave!!

Get lost! All of you get lost!

You are usually very witty. Why aren't you talking today?

Mo Lian Cheng! I have something to ask you!

Go ahead.

You... Do you like me?!

I'm not sure about that either.

Do I like you, or do I not?

Forget it, let's stop talking. Leave!

What if I admitted I like you?

Then... Then do you love me?!

Yes.

Since it's like that, I don't love you anymore!

You mean... you've always loved me?

Your Highness... I feel a little bored.

I want to take a walk.

♫ How come you are not moved at all? ♫

♫ Could loving me have become too much of a burden? ♫

I will take my leave.

♫ Rain will be falling soon, the sky has turned gloomy ♫

♫ Shrouding the unavoidable pain ♫

♫ My heart finally got emptied ♫

♫ Falling into a prejudiced black hole, forcing to make up different kinds of excuses ♫

Miss.

Miss, what's wrong?

You clearly went to see the First Prince that day.

But why did you...?

Don't mention that person ever again.

Miss.

What's wrong?

He didn't want to see me at all!

He was just using me as a pawn!

♫ How come you still don't understand? Give me a warm embrace ♫

Miss, could there be a misunderstanding?

I can see his affection for you!

Misunderstanding?

What misunderstanding could there be?

Perhaps... he never truly loved me.

Qu Pan'er was right.

I'm just a pitiful girl.

Miss! Don't say that.

Next time you see the First Prince, just ask him.

He was this cruel to me.

I will not see him again!

Miss!

Do you not love the First Prince at all anymore?

From now on,

he is he, and I am I.

I will not have one shred of affection for him anymore.

♫ Do you understand or not that my pain ♫

♫ Are all due to your extravagance ♫

♫ To love or not, I started to not understand ♫

Jing Xin?

Why am I here?

Xiao Tan?

Xiao Tan, my Miss was sitting right here.

She said she won't have a shred of affection for the First Prince anymore

and then you appeared.

Just how do we switch?

Jing Xin, I told the 8th Prince that I don't love him anymore.

And then, your Miss appeared.

When your Miss said she had no more affection for Mo Yi Huai,

I appeared!

What do these things have in common?

Look. First,

I definitely love Mo Lian Cheng.

It was so hard to meet such a handsome man.

How could I give up so easily?

Your Miss

deeply loves Mo Yi Huai.

That love can't be ended just like that.

Looking at it this way,

we both...

You both lied!

That's right! We both lied!

Jing Xin! Think carefully!

Every time we switch, did we lie?

Mister! Actually, I was abducted here!

They're going to sell me to a brothel!

Are you going to say it or not?

- Do you still want to see your First Prince? - I didn't want anything!

Nothing at all!

I have never loved Eldest Prince.

From now on, we also are people walking on different paths.

We will have nothing to do with each other ever again!

That's right! That must be it!

Now, let's experiment.

Let's do this. Jing Xin, ask me

if I love Mo Lian Cheng. If I switch,

and then your Miss appears,

find a way to make your Miss lie. Understand?

Yes, I understand!

Xiao Tan, I'll start now.

Come!

Xiao Tan! Do you love the 8th Prince or not?

I don't love him at all. With that poker face of his,

who is he trying to show it to every day?!

Miss!

Miss, it really is you?

Xiao Tan found out how you two switch places!

She says it's done through lies!

Miss?

Is that so?

Miss, listen to me!

Do you really

not love the First Prince at all anymore?

Jing Xin.

You don't need to test me anymore.

I have already made up my mind.

From now on, I will not see him ever again.

- Xiao Tan? - This is great! We guessed correctly!

So the crux to switching is telling a lie!

Xiao Tan, you're so smart!

Greetings, Princess Consort.

Housekeeper Zhu,

what is it?

The Prince says today is the Crown Prince's coronation ceremony.

He told you to prepare to enter the palace later.

Got it!

Jing Xin! Give me five!

The Crown Prince's coronation ceremony?

Then won't we see Mo Yi Huai?

Have your Miss go!

This way, she won't be sad every day anymore.

If she cries every day, won't she suffocate?

But my Miss is very sad right now. She doesn't want to see the First Prince.

Xiao Tan, you're right.

We cannot let Miss hold it in. She should go!

Let me tell you. I definitely don't love money.

Even if you give me a 5 million Yuan check, I don't want it!

Miss!

Miss, the Prince is taking you into the palace later.

It's to participate in the Crown Prince's coronation ceremony!

Miss!

Miss!

He really became the Crown Prince.

I'm not going. I said

that I will not see such a cold hearted cruel person anymore.

Huh? Why did I come back?

No? Let's do it again!

In our modern times, lots of people pursue me!

There's young handsome men,

mature uncles, and guys with six packs!

They follow me around every day!

What is going on? Why isn't it working?

One more time! Mo Lian Cheng, when we sleep together,

I don't feel anything at all. Your skills are too poor.

It's not working! Even lying doesn't work anymore!

Do I have to faint?

I'm going all out!

Xiao Tan! What are you doing?

I'm so angry!

[Martial Arts Practice Hall]

- Greetings, Crown Prince. - Greetings, Crown Prince.

There is no need for so much courtesy between brothers.

In the future, you two will be my right and left hand men.

Let us be united and work together, to help make our Dong Yue prosper.

Don't you think so, 8th Brother?

Of course. Crown Prince has outstanding intelligence and skills in strategy.

You are so good at plotting too. Of course, I must learn well,

one thing at a time.

Oh? After I am crowned,

we have much time on our hands to discuss it.

You are thinking too far ahead! In the future, who the Crown Prince will be--

Enough. It's getting late.

Let's go see King Father.

I wish you well, Queen Dowager.

Now that it has come to this, you still don't repent?

I don't know what I've done wrong.

You don't know? If not for you,

why would Cheng'er have fallen for Huai'er and Qu Zhao Ying's plan

and leave the library halfway?

If not for you, the Crown Prince position would be Cheng'er's!

It's enough that you don't help him. Now you harm him too!

Speak! Do you belong to Mo Yi Huai?

You two worked together to harm Cheng'er!

Mo Yi Huai and I have never had much to do with each other!

I love the Prince, how could I harm him?

If you don't believe me, you can go ask the Prince!

There's no need.

I want you to leave 8th Prince Manor.

Queen Dowager, this matter,

I cannot agree to it!

You dare to defy my order?

- I do not dare. - You don't?

You may have seduced Cheng'er,

but I see things very clearly! If you continue staying in 8th Prince Manor,

who knows what you will do to Cheng'er!

I won't pursue the Crown Prince matter.

But I cannot let you continue staying in 8th Prince Manor.

Do you want to leave on your own

or will you make me force you?

Queen Dowager, my marriage to the Prince

was ordered by the previous King!

I do not dare to leave just like that.

You dare to use the Royal Decree to threaten me?

- That's not what I mean. - How ridiculous!

You clearly value the Princess Consort position

and are extremely greedy!

Queen Dowager, not every woman

wishes to be this stupid Princess Consort

or some stupid Queen!

You! You!

Slap her mouth!

Queen Dowager,

the Crown Prince requests an audience to greet you.

Let him come in!

Yes.

Greetings, Queen Dowager. I wish you well.

I need to congratulate you.

Your plot was quite intelligent.

I am terrified. In the future,

I must listen to more of your teachings.

The 8th Princess Consort doesn't know about the palace rules. I ask that you--

Between you and the 8th Princess Consort,

you should avoid suspicion.

You dare beg for mercy on her behalf in front of me?

Are you not afraid the King and the court officials will hear about it

and threaten your Crown Prince position?

The 8th Prince has arrived!

Greetings, Royal Grandmother. Stop making things hard on Tan'er.

Compared to Tan'er, the throne means nothing to me.

Tan'er is my woman. If anyone dares to hurt her,

even if it's a family member, I will not let it go.

Let's go.

I will take my leave.

All of you leave!

- Yes. - Yes.

Queen Dowager.

Someone found evidence.

Let her come in.

Yes.

Queen Dowager, I found this in the manor.

Your Highness, Eunuch Li requests an audience.

- Have him come in. - Yes.

Eunuch Li!

Your Highness.

The Queen Dowager asks you to come over. She says she has something to discuss with you.

Eunuch Li, I still have official matters to take care of.

If it's just a casual conversation, then there's no need.

Your Highness, the Queen Dowager says it's important. You must come.

What is it?

Your Highness, you should come back to the palace with me.

Cheng'er.

Tell me the truth. The day the king chose the Crown Prince,

did you go to Qu Manor?

Royal Grandmother, don't listen to those rumors.

I had official matters to take care of.

I am old, but I am not blind.

That day the Crown Prince, Mo Yi Huai, clearly

set a trap with Qu Zhao Ying for you.

That Qu Tan'er might have been part of it too!

She is clearly Mo Yi Huai's spy!

Royal Grandmother, please do not make nonsensical guesses!

Tan'er is innocent and naive, she has no intentions to harm me.

Is that so?

I think you don't know how she really is.

She has completely led your heart astray.

Take a look for yourself.

Look carefully.

Based on your talents,

you don't need me to explain this for you to see

that this painting is what Mo Yi Huai uses to plot with Qu Tan'er.

That Qu Tan'er never truly loved you.

Chen'ger, listen to me.

Now, you have already lost the first round in the fight for the throne.

Now, the best method

is to divorce Qu Tan'er and marry Yun'er.

The Duke of Anle's power cannot be underestimated, he can help you!

Royal Grandmother, I said so before.

I will only have the Princess Consort in my manor.

If there's nothing else, I will leave first.

Stop.

Cheng'er, do you want to make a bet with me?

Let's see if that Qu Tan'er

is in cahoots with Mo Yi Huai.

Xiao Tan, it's getting late. It's time to get up!

Xiao Tan!

Xiao Tan! Get up!

Hurry and get up!

Don't sleep anymore, okay?

Xiao Tan!

Xiao Tan! Stop sleeping!

The First Prince sent a letter to my Miss!

This is the way he sends letters to my Miss!

Hurry and bring it over here!

Look! This male bird is the First Prince.

This female bird is my Miss.

Look now on the inscription. The one written here is the time and place.

That means, the First Prince wants to see my Miss

this afternoon at Mao'er Hutong.

What?! That bastard! He still has the face to come?

Does he think it's easy to bully our Qu Tan'er?

What do we do now? Should we tell my Miss?

Jing Xin, I'll go meet him this afternoon!

I'm going to rip him to shreds!

That wouldn't be very good, Xiao Tan.

What's so bad about it? Let's go!

Your shoes!

Where are you going, Princess Consort?

I... I'm too bored inside the manor! I want to take a walk outside.

I'm going to buy some... makeup!

You want to leave the manor so badly? Why don't I go with you?

There's no need!

I'm buying female products! How can you come with me?

If I asked you to stay with me, would you still insist on going?

I'm just going out for a little while!

I'll be back right away and I'll stay with you then, okay?

That bastard! He dares to be late?

Does he have even an ounce of sincerity?

Qu Tan'er must have gone blind to like such a heartless man!

Mo Yi Huai?

Cheng Cheng? Why are you here?

Good question. You are meeting privately with the First Prince.

I really shouldn't have come.

It's not like that! I came to see Mo Yi Huai in someone else's place!

Princess Consort is indeed exceptionally intelligent and has great acting skills.

You hid this very well. I really didn't notice.

I didn't! I never lied to you!

So... you plotted with Mo Yi Huai

to appear at Qu Manor on the day the Crown Prince was to be chosen

and put on an act in front of me?

Qu Tan'er... too clever.

You knew I liked you, so you used my affections

to snatch the Crown Prince position.

I must clap and say you did a great job.

A misunderstanding! It's all a misunderstanding!

Then what is this?

This... this isn't mine! This wasn't written to me!

Stop spouting your lies.

I... will not believe them anymore.

The 8th Prince Manor... you don't need to return to it.

Don't you want the divorce paper? I'll give it to you.

Mo Lian Cheng!

If I wasn't Qu Tan'er, would you still love me?

I don't have a lot of time. Hurry and talk.

I really didn't lie to you. If I was a spy,

- I'll get hit by a palanquin! When it rains, I--! - Enough!

Actually... I always wanted to tell you.

I'm not the real Qu Tan'er.

I just took over her body. We use the same body.

I know you probably won't believe me. But it's all true!

Today, I came in her place!

Two people using the same body?

Qu Tan'er, do you think I'm a three-year-old child?

I know you won't believe me. I can prove it to you.
