Are You the One

[Episode 36]

In this world, many parents

seem to
always consider and plan for their children.

But in fact, they do not really
care about their children's feelings.

They can for their own interests,

even sacrifice their children's
reputation and dignity.

Most of the time,
the children are also helpless.

As a woman, I understand well
how much discipline

Cousin Lian has endured since childhood.

If I had such a mother,
I wouldn't do better than her.

I understand what you mean.

I will go talk to her and make it clear.

Sister, I have treated you well over the years,

yet today you still came to the mansion
to force me.

Do you really think I'm that foolish?

Sister, you hold a high position
in the Lord's Mansion.

I deserve to be treated well by you.

Have you forgotten that

the Consort Dowager
should not have been you?

If I didn't give the marriage opportunity
to you, and married into the Lian family,

for so many years, it would have been you,

living under
others' thumb.

The title of Consort Dowager.
The glory and wealth.

Those are what you owe me.

You must compensate me for a lifetime!

Xingzhou says I shows partiality to you.

He doesn't know that my greatest partiality
is always treating you sincerely,

even when I know that you are insincere,

every time you call me sister.

Listen to me carefully.

My title was not given by you.

It was you who made the wrong choice
and regretted it.

My family never owed you anything.

Sister. Sister, sister, sister. I'm begging you.

Help me one last time.

Her... Her reputation is all ruined.

No one wants her now.

Right. Right.

I will beg Princess Huaisang.
I will apologize to her.

If she is really willing...

- I will...
- I won't agree either.

My daughter-in-law is
a one-in-a-million good girl.

Let me make it clear.

From now on, if anyone dares
to force my son to have any concubines

and upset my daughter-in-law,

I will be the first to make them pay.

Sister!

Sister! Sister, sister!

Please help me one last time!

Please help Binglan one last time!

I'm begging you.

Binglan.

Look.

The lights of the mansion are so beautiful.

Since I was a kid, in my heart,

nothing outside
can compare to what this mansion has.

And no one...

And no one can compare to you.

I have always owed you an apology.

At the beginning, when I didn't even
understand what marriage meant,

I let Mother arrange this marriage.

For you, it was indeed a great injustice.

I was also at fault.

I have long known that

I had already given up on winning your love.

But all these years,

I kept telling myself that love is useless,

and as long I became Princess Huaiyang,

I could get everything I ever dreamed of.

But today, when you stood up in front of Princess Huaisang,

I finally realized that

all these years, what I fought so hard for,

I didn't get it
Instead, I lost it all.

I lost you.

I lost my dignity,

and my grace.

I even lost myself.

It's okay.

I'm fine now.

It's cold late at night.

Cousin, please go back.

Binglan.

There's still time.

I believe in you.

Binglan, Binglan. Wait!

Binglan!

If it weren't for your incompetence,
I would have helped you to be the concubine.

I don't want to be a concubine anymore.

Mother, have you ever thought about it?

The Lord Huaiyang doesn't love me.

Even if I marry into the family,
what kind of life will I live?

Are you foolish?

Once you marry him, none of this will matter.

Have you forgotten what I planned,

and everything I did for you all these years?

Is it for me, or for yourself?

From now on,

I will no longer live
for your illusory dreams.

My marriage and my life

will be decided by myself.

Binglan.

Binglan!

Binglan.

Now, we have no more worries.

Are you happy?

You have prepared everything,
so I don't have to worry at all.

There were some surprises,
but there was also joy.

Sounds like you have some complaints?

Yes.

We have gone through so many twists and turns
before today.

Perhaps, if we had a deeper connection of fate
and met earlier,

our path would have been easier.

In the past, I did have such complaints.

-And now?
-Now, I am very grateful for all of this.

It is hard-earned,

so I will cherish it even more.

I have proposed to you many times,

but I felt it wasn't enough.

Today,

I sincerely ask again
to take you as my wife.

From now on, we'll care for each other,
and live in harmony.

Will you marry me?

Yes, with all my heart.

Since you said yes,

let me tell you another secret.

On the 9th, we will have our wedding.

The 9th?

It's just a few days away.
Will we make it?

All the friends and family
have already been notified.

Even if we hold it tomorrow, we'll make it.

-You are in such a hurry.You fear I'll run away?
- Yes.

During this journey,
we've wandered around and come this far.

It hasn't been easy.

We've weathered many storms.

I can't wait any longer.

In the future, no matter how hard it gets,

I will protect you from any harm.

I only wish to hold your hand,

and grow old together.

[Fanglan Pavilion]

- Okay.
- It's good?

It's fine. It's fine.

Take it slow.

Dear, pass it to me again.

Take it slow.

Look.

So majestic!

Princess Huaisang has this much dowry?

It's really a lot.

Miantang. Miantang.

- Darling.
- Grandfather.

Grandfather.

- Uncle.
- Miantang.

Miantang.

Let me see.

Lord Cui has made you so thin!

-Really?
-Yes.

I heard this place has been chaotic lately.

Are you alright?

Right, is there anyone
bullying you in the mansion?

You keep asking questions.
I don't know how to answer.

My tongue is feeling numb.

Grandfather, please go inside
and have some tea.

I'll take you to the mansion to meet the Lord
and his mother later.

No, that's not allowed. It's not allowed.

An unmarried girl cannot
meet her future husband.

It's against the rules.

Let's go. Let's go.

- You're getting more lovely.
- Please.

Father.

Brother.

Father.

Here.

Father, take a look.
Any other suggestions?

[Joy]

Be careful not to tilt it.

- Align both sides.
- Don't scratch it.

It was just pasted on.

Let me see.

Isn't it pretty?

Not luxurious enough.

Try this one.

The pearl hairpin.

Let me see.

- It's nice.
- Looks pretty.

No, I'm not satisfied.

Take it down. Let's try the next set.

[Joy]

If the work is done, you can leave for a rest.

It's strange.
You are the one having the wedding.

Why am I so nervous?

Aren't you nervous at all?

Not at all.

Why should I be?

I admire you now more than
when you fought in the army.

Since ancient times, how many grooms
have been too nervous to sleep?

How come you're so calm?

We are together all the time,
and already familiar with each other.

- So the excitement fades?
- It's not that.

Our experiences together have already
taught us what it means to be a couple.

In my heart,

Miantang is already
my lawful wife.

For this wedding, we have already experienced

it thousands of times in our hearts.

So, why would I be nervous about
getting married like ordinary grooms?

So, why would I be nervous about
getting married like ordinary grooms?

-What?
-Is that a wedge dowel?

Yes, what's wrong?

What if it pricks Miantang?

Exactly.

A bit higher.

Come back. Come back.

Quick. Get up on me.

- Is it okay?
- Yes, come on.

- I'm standing up.
- Go ahead.

Here.

Cui Xingzhou. Neck, neck, neck.

Can you reach it?

I can reach it.

Cui Xingzhou.

It's so high. Will it prick Miantang?

Yes, if she is on the threshold.

No, no, no. Even so, she can't reach it.

Won't she have a crown?

Even if her height doubles, she can't reach it.

Are we too nervous?

-You're making me nervous.
-I'm not.

It's okay.

Miantang must be even more nervous.

Big! I'm the biggest.

- I won, I won.
- Another win?

Another round.

Still small. I bet on small.

Tomorrow is your wedding.
You still have the energy to play dice?

- Is everything ready?
- Yes, it's ready.

- But I still feel...
- Sit down and play a few rounds with us.

- Hurry, Nanny Li.
- No, no, I can't.

Come on, Nanny Li.

- No, no, I can't.
- Hurry, Nanny Li.

Nanny Li, join us.

Alright, I bet on big.

Come on, another round. Another round.

[Joy]

As the old saying goes,

A man can fall in love and leave without
consequences,

but a woman can never just leave.

The years are long.

There is bound to be a time when passion fades.

Have you ever thought how you will treat her then?

So, in your heart,

am I just
a heartless and fickle person?

That's not what I mean.

I'm just curious.

Being a couple and being married

must be different, right?

If we become husband and wife,

then her joy will be my joy,

and her burdens will also be my burdens.

Miantang is like that.

She always stands by my side firmly,

sharing the responsibility with me.

That's who she is.

She can be tough.
She can be vulnerable.

And she has a pure heart.

I'll make sure she stays that way.

If there is any change,

it is that we
no longer want the other to change.

I only wish that in our years together,

she can always be herself.

[Cui Mansion]

Before, the clouds always covered the moon.

I haven't seen such bright moonlight
in a long time.

The Princess still cares about the moonlight?

From now on, the Lord will pick
anything for you, even the moon.

He won't.

Why?

Because he knows that, if I want it,

I will
climb the ladder myself to pick the moon.

So, he will always be the reliable man

who stands on the ground
and holds the ladder steady.

And I will completely trust him.

Tonight, the moon is so bright.

It will surely be a lovely day tomorrow.

Congratulations, My Lord.

[Blessings and Prosperity]

Message from Zhenzhou.
The Lord has already set off.

The Lord has set off.
- The Lord has set off.

The stringing beads.

- Where are they?
- The stringing beads?

- Everyone, relax.
- Be careful, girls.

The wedding procession won't arrive so soon.

Princess Huaiyang, aren't you anxious at all?

The one who's anxious today is not me.

Congratulations, congratulations.

What a grand gesture!

Congratulations, My Lord.

- Congratulations.
- Congratulations.

Congratulations, My Lord.

Congratulations, My Lord.

- Congratulations.
- Congratulations.

-Come, come, come.
-Come, come, come.

The beauty dresses at the mirror stand.

Please quickly lift the curtain and come out...

-My Lord, please.
-So easy?

I haven't even finished the poem.

Please.

Everyone. This way, please.

- Follow me.
- This way, please.

Father. We should go.

We'll greet the guests.

If the Lord wants his bride, just use a
red silk rope to pull her out.

However, there are five red silk ropes,
each linked to a different lady.

Only one of them is held by the bride.

You must choose carefully.

What if he chooses wrongly?

Naturally, you will marry the lady
you pull out.

The wrong one will be sent
into the bridal sedan.

Xingzhou, don't panic.

I don't believe the bride would watch you
marry another lady.

Are all the five ropes held by one person?

My Lord, don't be so narrow-minded.

Bride.

Are all the five ropes in your hands?

Oh no.

Amitabha, Amitabha. My Lord,
you have to choose the right person.

- Not the first one.
- Which one it is?

- I agree with you.
- Pull the second one.

Which one is it exactly?

His Lordship will succeed.

-Which one is it?
-This one looks like it.

None of the first few is right.

- Definitely not this one.
- Not this one.

Any idea?

My Lord, if you don't dare,

how about I cut
one rope that is not the bride's one, okay?

Okay, okay, okay.Okay.

What's the condition?

I heard you value your reputation the most.

Today, in front of so many people, can you say to the bride inside?

some sweet words?

This sounds good.

Miss He is really naughty.

He gets shy so easily.

Making him say such words
is worse than killing him.

Nanny Li. Stop laughing.

Be careful. His Lordship
might actually pull you out.

Which one will he pull?

Remember.

I'll say the sweet words to you only.

Also, you played the tricks on me today.

Tonight, you will repay me.

The groom pulls the red silk rope.

- Open the door and welcome the bride.
- He's right.

Nice, nice.

- Great.
- Nice.

How did you know it was me?

The ropes of the other four people
were pulled so tightly.

They didn't want to be the Princess Huaiyang.

But your rope moved with just one pull.

If not you, who else is it?

Good, good, good.

- Good.
- Good.

Grandfather.

Please have the tea from your grandson-in-law.

Xingzhou.

I entrust Miantang to you.

His Lordship is not drunk, is he?

-Go check on him. Go quickly.
- I'm not going.

If I go, they will ask me to drink.

If everyone gets drunk, who will guard here?

- You...
-Don't worry.

He can drink a lot.
I've never seen him get drunk.

Oh, you.

He's really drunk?

Look at him. What did I say?

He's really drunk.

That means he is truly happy.

Moru.

My Lord...

Tell them.

They can earn a tael of gold
for each cup of wine.

Yes, my Lord.

When did you come in?

You were so lovely when sleeping.

I surely want to watch you a bit longer.

This is too improper of me. Get up.

No need to wear these.

You are so beautiful right now.

Why didn't you drink more with the guests? Why getting back so early?

Why getting back so early?

Why should I drink with them?

If they want to drink, they can drink by themselves.

A moment of spring night is worth its length of gold.

I must come back here to accompany my wife.

This is too improper.

Others will think that I called you back.

They will accuse me of being arrogant due to favoritism.

Then all my effort I made to learn the rules these days would be in vain.

Stand here.

You should discard all these formalities.

Besides, since when did you care about the rules?

Here. Here.

Sit down, sit down. Sit down.

My Lord, you always obey the rules.

Where are your manners now?

Miantang, I'm warning you.

Now you keep calling me Lord.

You only call me Lord.

You don't even call me honey anymore.

No, I won't.

Will you say it?

No.

I'll give you one more chance. Will you say it?

No, I won't.

Okay, okay, okay. I'll say it. I'll say it!

Honey.

Dear.

[Joy]

Lord Huaiyang has quelled the rebellion and achieved great merit.

He brought back the captives, further demonstrating his loyalty.

He is hereby promoted to be the Minister of Works, and Deputy Minister of War.

He shall assist Minister Shi to oversee all military affairs of the nation.

This decree is to be implemented.

Thank you, Your Majesty.

Your Lordship. His Majesty has asked me to convey a message.

Military affairs are the foundation of the nation.

Your Majesty requests you to set off immediately

and go to the capital to meet the Emperor.

I, Cui Xingzhou, accept the decree.

Since Prince Lu was executed, his illegal properties should have been confiscated by the nation.

How did they end up in your hands?

It... It was a moment of weakness.

A moment of weakness?

Lift your head up. Look at me.

Lord Wen, you work in the Ministry of Revenue.

You're well aware of the Kingdom's laws.

Knowing breaking the law is an unforgivable crime.

I... I know I was wrong.

Duke Qing, spare my life. Duke Qing, spare my life, please.

It, it, it...It was Prince Sui.

You know implicating an imperial official and royal relative is a very serious crime, right?

I swear I am not lying.

Otherwise, let my entire clan suffer.

Please hear me out.

After Prince Lu was executed, Prince Sui embezzled many properties,

so he needed the Ministry of Revenue

to help change the names on property deeds to deceive people.

Yes,

that estate was used to bribe me.

Private exchange?

It was personally handled by Prince Sui?

Prince Sui never showed himself.

It was all handled by someone known as the Great Master.

He sold them off, turning them into untraceable clean money.

It was also the Great Master who bribed me.

Who is the Great Master?

I do not know. He never shows his face.

No one knows his real name.

Last night, I searched the residence of Wen Tinghe and the records of the Ministry of Revenue.

Among the recorded illegal properties of Prince Lu with no property deeds,

there are dozens of shops and residences in the capital alone.

Prince Sui has ignored the laws,

allowing his subordinates to bribe people, and embezzle illegal properties.

This is an unforgivable major crime.

I earnestly request Your Majesty to order a joint trial by three judicial offices

to thoroughly investigate the case of Prince Sui's embezzlement.

I second this motion.

We already have a witness.

As long as we follow the clues, and find more evidence,

we can confirm the charges and bring down Prince Sui.

Your Majesty, do you have a good plan?

The most urgent thing now

is to find more evidence of Prince Sui's corruption.

The Great Master mentioned by Wen Tinghe,

is very likely a close confidant of Prince Sui.

At present, we can only start with Wen Tinghe.

My Lord.

Why have you come in person?

What happened?

Wen Tinghe has been exposed.

How come?

He was at the Ministry of Revenue today.

Our people haven't received any news.

I'm afraid His Majesty used him as bait
by letting him return there

to lure out the mastermind behind all of it.

They are quite capable now.

They even traced it back to Wen Tinghe.

We must act cautiously in the coming days.

Without my orders, do not act rashly.

Never reveal your identity.

Understood.

Go.

My Lord. I'm afraid we have to come up with a way to shut Wen Tinghe up forever.
