♫The sounds from the sheng and xiao die away in the distance, in the sparse, declining light ♫

♫ Memories of my past, my companions in youth. ♫

♫ Over boundless years, old affairs have become difficult to recall. ♫

♫ I’ve used a lifetime of truth to put up a pretense. ♫

♫ Parting without opening these cupped hands full of tears. ♫

♫ Clears my vision and permits me to resist ♫

♫ Perhaps when targeted by love it is not wise to separate ♫

Ruyi's Royal Love in the Palace

20

Episode 13

21

Speaking with impertinence. Mocking palace personnel and belittlement of central palace. Contempt of ancestors.

22

I must punish you as my duty to my ancestors.

23

- Come.

- Yes.

24

Slap her mouth.

25

Noble Consort, forgive me.

26

Ack.

27

Noble Consort, even if A'Rou is unruly,

28

she shouldn't be slapped like this.

29

Consort Xian, I have yet to find your fault in failure of management.

30

And you dare to help her?

31

May you allow me to take A'Rou back to my place to manage her.

32

You failed in it and I shall do it for you.

33

We don't dare to lament on your punishment.

34

It's just that A'Rou still has to do her job.

35

If she's sporting an injury, it looks unwell for all.

36

May you be merciful.

37

It's about to rain. I'm tired too.

38

Moxin, escort me back to rest.

39

Yes.

40

Shuangxi.

41

You stay. I punish A'Rou to kneel under the Cricket Gate for six hours.

42

Yes. I will watch her.

43

And Consort Xian, I punish you to transcribe the Buddhist scripture hundred times.

44

Take it to Anhua Hall before midnight and burn it for atonement.

45

Yes.

46

Mistress, save me.

47

You must carry your own misgiving.

48

Mistress!

49

Eunuch Shuangxi, it's about to rain. There are two umbrellas.

50

I'll leave it for you and A'Rou to shield the rain.

51

Noble Consort didn't leave that instruction.

52

I don't dare to take it.

53

Mistress. Mistress!

54

Stay. Kneel.

55

Mistress!

56

Shuizhi.

57

Close the window, Shuizhi.

58

Coming. Coming.

59

It's raining past afternoon.

60

No sign of thinning out.

61

Good thing Xiao Lezi and Shuizhi escorted Yonghuang back.

62

I went to see A'Rou earlier.

63

I wanted to sneak her two buns.

64

But that Shuangxi is staring at her from the corridor.

65

Without budging at all.

66

I told her so many times she needs to watch what she says and she just won't listen.

67

Words are not forgiving. She needs to remember that.

68

That rain is just getting bigger.

69

You're supposed to kneel for six hours.

70

Kneel nicely for me now.

71

Don't try to be lazy. I am watching you tight.

72

Did you hear that?

73

Kneel well.

74

[ bitter ... ]

75

Mistress, don't rush.

76

Noble Consort is picky. If she finds fault in it, you've wasted your time writing.

77

They say thunderstorms quit quickly. But how is this rain just getting bigger?

78

It's cold with the rain. I don't know after kneeling in the rain,

79

just how frozen A'Rou will be when she returns.

80

I'm almost done transcribing.

81

Later, take it to Xianfu Palace to let them know.

82

And go to Anhua Hall to burn it.

83

Yes.

84

How many hours has it been since A'Rou knelt?

85

It's been over 4 hours.

86

Sanbao.

87

I'm here.

88

Go and summon Royal Physician Xu.

89

Tell him I'm not feeling well.

90

And have him bring me some medicine to get rid of chill.

91

I will go now.

92

- Shuizhi.

- I'm here.

93

Go and boil some hot water and have A'Rou bath in it when she's back to get rid of the chill.

94

And bring some thick blanket to have her be covered in it.

95

And prepare some ginger soup.

96

Yes.

97

Mistress, you ache for her.

98

She's been serving me for so many years.

99

Her fault she's not faring for herself.

100

Go now and take it to Noble Consort and come back for your chores.

101

Yes.

102

Mistress.

103

Sister A'Rou.

104

Sister A'Rou.

105

All soaking wet.

106

- A'Rou.

- Mistress.

107

Mistress.

108

Mistress.

109

Mistress, Sister A'Rou is all soaking wet.

110

Mistress.

111

Careful.

112

Hurry and open the door.

113

Mistress, the ginger soup is ready.

114

Add some ginger slices in it.

115

Drink some ginger soup.

116

Didn't she say 6 hours?

117

I think Noble Consort isn't mad anymore.

118

She sent word to allow me to come back.

119

Spared me from kneeling more.

120

Don't cry anymore. The royal physician will be here shortly.

121

Another drink.

122

Add more wormwood leaves.

123

Yes.

124

Lianxin is still not back?

125

It's rainy heavily outside. Perhaps she's evading the rain somewhere.

126

Lianxin.

127

Empress.

128

Empress, Consort Xian's handkerchief, I delivered it this morning.

129

But on my way back, it started to rain,

130

so I went to the study hall to look at Second Prince.

131

This is Second Prince's post he made today.

132

He told me to deliver it to you to see.

133

You're thoughtful.

134

It's getting late. You should go back and rest.

135

I thank you for your heart,

136

but I don't need to go back.

137

I will serve you.

138

You only got married yesterday.

139

You should go back early to talk with Wang Qin.

140

What's wrong? Is Wang Qin treating you badly?

141

Empress.

142

Lianxin.

143

If you marry a chicken, you follow the chicken. If you marry a dog, you follow the dog.

144

If you don't live well with Wang Qin,

145

you are wasting Empress and Emperor's thoughtfulness.

146

Lianxin, I know Wang Qin is not really a man.

147

He can't have children with you and enjoy parenthood.

148

But besides that, Wang Qin is still a proper guy.

149

Since you're already married to him, as long as he treats you well,

150

you ought to live well with him.

151

Your Highness.

152

Lianxin.

153

Think about it.

154

Your siblings all depend on Empress's family.

155

They rely on Fuca's care-taking.

156

You must be grateful.

157

Even though it's compromising now.

158

If you can endure it, it is temporary.

159

Doing the chores properly is more urgent.

160

The rest is all for Empress and Second Prince's sake.

161

Your Highness, the miss contracted chill from the cold.

162

She needs to manage it well.

163

I will prescribe medicine and deliver it here.

164

What about her knee?

165

From my experience, the knee is an external wound that can be treated by some ointment.

166

I fear I will disturb the miss so I will pass on looking.

167

Internally and externally and it will heal faster.

168

Thank you, Physician Xu.

169

Sanbao, escort Physician Xu out.

170

- Yes.

- I take my leave.

171

Roll up the pant sleeve.

172

Mistress. It's so unfair to me.

173

Unfair how?

174

Noble Consort tormenting me is to shame you.

175

It's fine if I am compromised, but Mistress --

176

It's only natural that it's fine you're compromised since you courted it upon yourself.

177

Empress never takes your side.

178

I wanted to tout your pride so I shamed Lianxin.

179

For my pride? Or is it to dig a hole for me to jump in?

180

I warned you many times we are living in the harem.

181

One sentence spoken wrongly and you will be beaten to death.

182

How many tongues do you have to make up for your life?

183

Even if I did wrong,

184

I did it out of my devotion to you.

185

Sister A'Rou, Mistress only got agonized by Noble Consort due to trying to spare you.

186

She had to transcribe the Buddhist scripture a hundred times.

187

Mistress. I feel it's unfair for you.

188

What does Noble Consort always press on your head?

189

It's not like you can't outwin her.

190

You only want to win and to be the top.

191

Do you know that all things require knowledge of retreat too?

192

You want to win but you can't.

193

But you still push yourself into it?

194

Sister, it's ginger soup to dissipate some chill in you.

195

Drink it yourself.

196

Yes.

197

After drinking the ginger soup, go and sleep soundly. This it the last time.

198

If you act up nonsensically again, I can't save you either.

199

Mistress.

200

Why are you back so soon?

201

Noble Consort said the transcribing is shabby.

202

It doesn't seem sincere in atonement.

203

What does she want then?

204

She said to transcribe another hundred.

205

And bring it to Xianfu Palace tomorrow before you go to Changchun Palace for greetings.

206

No matter. I'll just transcribe it another hundred times.

207

Noble Consort didn't even look at your transcribed scripture.

208

She just wanted to be picky.

209

We expected that though.

210

She never wanted to see my transcribed scripture. She clearly just wanted to see me toil.

211

A'Rou is out of bound and Noble Consort wants to punish her.

212

But she herself lost her bound as well.

213

I will let her know what keeping within bounds means.

214

Noble Consort is really too much.

215

[ Eight --

216

Eighth Month, sound of waves howling in.

217

Weren't you transcribing the Buddhist scripture?

218

How are you writing a poem of another?

219

Transcribing the Buddhist scripture is petty trick.

220

This is what's most important.

221

Done.

222

You've been busy all night. Hurry and rest up.

223

Where did His Majesty rest last night?

224

He was at Yonghe Palace.

225

- Go now.

- Yes.

226

I'll be going now.

227

Who is there? Didn't you see the royal carriage?

228

I am Yanxi Palace's Suoxin.

229

I disturbed Your Majesty unintentionally. I beg your forgiveness.

230

It's Suoxin? Get up.

231

Yes.

232

I was going to head over to Yonghe Palace to greet Your Majesty.

233

For what?

234

Today is 18th of August, the wave-watching day. You once mentioned to my mistress,

235

that it was a regret you could not go watch the waves together at Haining.

236

My mistress had me specially send an item to you.

237

Month of August the sounds of waves come howling in.

238

Over the head and atop the mountain.

239

But he must go to the ocean gate.

240

Roll up the sand like piles of snow.

241

It's Liu Yuxi's "Waves Scoring Sand".

242

It's about the scenery of river and tide.

243

I have indeed said to her,

244

that I longed for the scenery of river tide. She still remembers.

245

Yes.

246

Why is there Buddhist scripture on the bottom?

247

My mistress said though the power of the tides is incomparable,

248

but we often hear of people getting caught up in tides and suffering injuries.

249

So she transcribed a copy of the Buddhist scripture,

250

so she can borrow the mercy of the Buddhist to calm the people.

251

Then the ones in your hands?

252

My mistress transcribed another hundred copies of the scripture to spread the merit.

253

Alright. Then this copy, I shall keep.

254

- Wang Qin.

- I'm here.

255

Take Consort Xian's transcribed scripture

256

to serve at the shrine and do not take it off for a month.

257

I follow your order.

258

Depart.

259

Sending off Your Majesty with honor.

260

After coming back from bidding wellwish at Changchun Palace,

261

Noble Consort said nothing and I knew you did it well.

262

Yes. His Majesty honored your transcribed scripture at the shrine.

263

I mentioned it before Noble Consort and she kept quiet.

264

Though she's mad, she still had me send the scripture to Anhua Hall to burn it.

265

What's there for her to be picky about when His Majesty likes it?

266

You never told His Majesty how Noble Consort picked on you.

267

You were already being kind.

268

I just want to remind her that enough is enough.

269

How's A'Rou?

270

She took the medicine prescribed by Physician Xu and she's must better already.

271

Shuoxin, have I spoiled A'Rou bad?

272

A'Rou is your marriage accompaniment so it's only natural that you are fond of her.

273

A'Rou is of marriage age now.

274

I plan to match her to a good man.

275

A'Rou is blessed.

276

It's not that I don't want her to stay.

277

It's just that A'Rou's temper will harm herself if she stayed.

278

It's better to marry her out of the palace in her prime youth.

279

Weren't you going to appoint a royal palace guard to her?

280

I was going to, thinking one day she will have good prospect.

281

But her temper --

282

If she continues her fate with the palace, it will surely bring touble.

283

A'Rou has been with me for so many years.

284

I must be thoughtful about her marriage.

285

When my mother comes to visit in the palace, I will ask her to match her to a good family.

286

Mistress.

287

I beg you. Don't send me away.

288

I don't want to marry off. I don't want to leave you.

289

You're even more unruly now. You're sick and why are you here?

290

Forgive me. I don't mean to eavesdrop.

291

I was just thinking I am better.

292

So I came wanting to serve you.

293

Get up now.

294

I only said it and I didn't say you are to leave right away.

295

I need to find a good family first.

296

I am nothing if I leave Forbidden City.

297

If you really want to release me,

298

please keep me a few years more and allow me to serve you.

299

I guarantee.

300

I won't be causing you trouble anymore.

301

Get on up. It's chilly on the ground.

302

If you won't agree to me staying,

303

I won't get up again.

304

Palace maids leave the palace at age 25.

305

Then you stay until age 25 and leave.

306

Really?

307

I thank you.

308

Go now. Go and nourish your body first.

309

I take my leave. I will let my body heal.

310

And serve you well.

311

Those old subjects. How they are not respecting your reputation.

312

Your Majesty allowed my father to go to the military bounds, to give assistance to government work.

313

Why are they opposing?

314

Naquin is opposing, Zhang Tingyu is opposing as well.

315

As for Gao Bin, he keeps going to survey the river repairs.

316

The high officers of the military always work by summon,

317

and Gao Bin, they can't worry about him.

318

Plus, I am also worried that by favouring you,

319

the dukes will not be happy.

320

Your Majesty could use Her Highness Empress's brother, Fuheng

321

you look after Maci, and depend on Fuca clan heavily.

322

I only have one father who works for you and they are still blabbering?

323

Why do you compare yourself with the empress? She's the central palace.

324

Your Majesty. I don't dare to compare with Empress.

325

It's just that I feel bad for my father.

326

And I am to blame for not being more successful.

327

I don't have a child by me so I can only let others bully me.

328

Then what do you want?

329

Since my father isn't allowed to be at the military compound,

330

why don't you bring First Prince from Consort Xian's place and give him to me?

331

Xiyue, I have spoiled you too much.

332

Allowing you to be so flighty and silly.

333

Hebei had no rain all winter and there's drought now.

334

I dispatched your father to Hebei to check on affairs.

335

When he's back with merit, I will send him to the military and no one shall say a word then.

336

Really?

337

Thank you, Your Majesty.

338

I have no measure with you.

339

Naquin and Zhang Tingyu used foreign banner and the river work as excuse.

340

Gao Bin isn't allowed in the military compound anymore.

341

Those old foxes.

342

They are all old subjects. His Majesty won't ignore their pride.

343

A new court comes with a new emperor. His Majesty is young.

344

In another five or ten years and they still try to pull this on His Majesty, and it will be difficult.

345

Empress Dowager, don't dwell always on the court affairs.

346

Today Yonghe Palace sent word that Noble Lady Mei's fetus

347

isn't getting carried smoothly with continuous ailment.

348

It's natural for the first pregnancy to have strong reaction.

349

Fujia, go to Cining Palace and pick out some nice things to reward her.

350

I will go now.

351

Mistress, His Majesty finally agreed to you.

352

His Majesty still favors you.

353

I hope he will favor me forever.

354

Who's there?

355

Noble Consort.

356

Xiao Luzi, why are you crying when everything's fine?

357

Noble Consort, my hometown of Hebei has drought disaster.

358

I can't find the entire family.

359

So I am sad.

360

Isn't your brother Xiao Fuzi

361

working at Consort Xian's palace?

362

Why don't you beg him?

363

There's no one at Consort Xian's family that can help me even if I beg.

364

My father is actually in Hebei checking on affairs now.

365

I could help you search for family.

366

Thank you, Noble Consort.

367

Don't rush to thank me. There will be lots of opportunities later on.

368

Yes. Yes.

369

Mistress, you are wise.

370

Sister Zhenshu.

371

Greetings to Noble Consort.

372

Why the look, Noble Lady Jia?

373

I am not blessed. It's been hard for me to conceive.

374

Everyone says this Cricket Gate is a sacred place to pray for children.

375

So I came and prayed at the Cricket Gate.

376

Hoping I can be watched over by the ancestors to have a child or two.

377

Praying for children is fine.

378

But your look of downer,

379

will the ancestors grant you a kid seeing you like this?

380

Yes. I am not as blessed as Noble Lady Mei to be protected by the ancestors.

381

Now, look who's here?

382

Greetings to Noble Consort and Noble Lady Jia.

383

Noble Lady Mei.

384

Noble Consort. Noble Lady Jia.

385

I am not at easy mobility with my pregnancy.

386

Empress said I can be pardoned from formalities. You two, may you not blame me.

387

It's alright. The royal heir is the priority.

388

I make allowance today.

389

But after you give birth, I'll see how proud you will be.

390

The mother of a precious son doesn't dare to be so proud.

391

How do you know you've got a son?

392

Princess Hejing is lacking a sister to be her mate actually.

393

Since I have the child in me, then I have half the hope of gathering a son.

394

If I were empty in my womb, of course that's no hope at all.

395

There's still time before your royal heir comes out.

396

You better keep that in there carefully, and watch out for empty birth.

397

Thank you for your concern.

398

A little music entertainer from the south manor.

399

Even if she's promoted to noble lady now, you are above her.

400

Don't need to be so respectful to her.

401

I am not respectful to her.

402

It's just because she's got the royal heir.

403

But actually if she really does gives birth to a son,

404

I will really need to oblige her then.

405

Cheap whore. Always the cheap whore.

406

Mistress, why did you talk back at Noble Consort?

407

Listen to the way she talks? Why should I concede to her?

408

Your body is more important. Don't anger it ill.

409

This is donkey hide birds nest porridge granted by Empress Dowager.

410

I can't eat it. Take it away.

411

Each time I see that noble consort, I get angry once and my head gets dizzy.

412

You never have an appetite and you don't sleep well at night.

413

And you're angry. That's not good for the fetus.

414

Is there any fish left from this morning? I will take some.

415

You're not feeling well but you will eat such fishy things?

416

Imperial Concubine Chun said eating fish and shrimp is good for the fetus.

417

They all belittle me.

418

But I must birth a fat and fair boy for them to see.

419

Mistress, you are beautiful, even with the full stomach.

420

Moxin, do I seem like it?

421

You do.

422

Then, do I have a boy or girl in me?

423

Of course a royal prince.

424

They say when a woman is with child, her face will enlarge and body bloated.

425

Look at that music entertainer from southern manor today.

426

Why is she still looking so sharp?

427

They say if you pregnant with a boy, except for the stomach,

428

all other parts of the body and face won't change.

429

Only when you're pregnant with a girl, you will be bloated.

430

So you're so sure she's giving birth to a prince?

431

Mistress. Indeed she may possibility give birth to a son.

432

But with her luck, how is she suitable to birth son?

433

Mistress, forgive me for being blunt.

434

Since Noble Lady Mei became pregnant, I have been uneasy.

435

She's fond of attention and she is often disrespectful to you.

436

If she gives birth to the first son upon His Majesty's enthronement, she will surely be a detriment to you.

437

What will you do?

438

Xiao Luzi from the royal kitchen,

439

came to give me a tip in secret.

440

Hurry and get up and tell me.

441

You all be careful now.

442

These shrimp and fish are fresh products for Noble Lady Mei.

443

Once delivered to the royal kitchen, they need to be cooked right away.

444

Yes.

445

Greetings to Noble Lady Jia.

446

Get on up.

447

I greet Empress.

448

Get on up.

449

Empress, are you worried about something?

450

Noble Lady Mei has had severe morning sickness.

451

I am very worried.

452

It's been over the first trimester already.

453

Why is she just getting worse?

454

I think Noble Lady Mei is just flighty.

455

Always causing work to get His Majesty's attention.

456

Earlier the royal physician did come and report her fetus is indeed not looking stable.

457

Her child would be His Majesty's first heir upon succession.

458

So His Majesty cares about it heavily.

459

We can't allow anything to happen.

460

Yes. We all know this child is so precious.

461

I hear you go and visit Noble Lady Mei often.

462

Yes. I go and visit her on your behalf often.

463

She should know how devoted you are no matter how careless she is.

464

This is why you are more sensible than Noble Consort.

465

I also hear she and Noble Lady Mei had a conflict?

466

Noble Lady Mei is hot-tempered.

467

Noble Consort Yu did indeed talk back.

468

She's got a father who's favored by His Majesty.

469

She's just not as proper as you.

470

I came from afar with nothing to depend on.

471

I can only lean on you, Empress.

472

Everything I say and do is for your sake.

473

You have been with His Majesty for quite some time too.

474

Now Noble Lady Mei is already pregnant.

475

If you were to have a child, that will be great too.

476

I will thank you, Empress.

477

I drank so much of this pregnancy promoting medicine but I see no effect.

478

Since you were favored, you took medicine to avoid pregnancy.

479

You've only just stopped not long. Don't rush.

480

Actually, no one asked me to drink pregnancy avoidance medicine.

481

It's just that I was too careful.

482

When I entered the palace, Concubine Zhe was pregnant with First Prince.

483

But who knew she would suffer such difficult labor giving birth to the second princess and both would die.

484

I don't now for sure if Empress had anything to do with it.

485

And I didn't dare to give birth to a child close in age to the main wife's child.

486

In order to avoid courting the empress's fury.

487

Now I have neither the first prince nor the legitimate prince.

488

I can only give birth to an heir in opportune time that is most cherished by His Majesty.

489

You will for sure.

490

Mistress, this is squirrel squid. Try it.

491

This is hot. Be careful eating it.

492

I fear you will get tired of eating these daily. How about a break of a couple of days --

493

You can't stop it.

494

What's wrong, Mistress?

495

This -- something's growing inside and it hurts when I bite.

496

Royal Physician said it's because you're temperament is hot due to the pregnancy.

497

I bet it's a prince.

498

I wish it were a prince. I'll see who belittles me then.

499

Let me eat more.

500

So the child can be strong and smart, and His Majesty will be fond of it.

501

Eat more fish.

502

Sky, earth --

503

The person is upright and so is his writing.

504

Yes, Mother.

505

What's wrong?

506

These days, when I return from school,

507

I keep smelling fishy smell from Yanxi Palace.

508

I'll have someone burn incense for you.

509

It's entering winter now. Putting some daffodils in your room would be nice too.

510

I hear Noble Lady Mei's fetus isn't stable.

511

She complains of discomfort a lot.

512

And she heard eating more fish and shrimp and shellfish,

513

will give birth to a smart and healthy child.

514

So they are sending those fishy items through Yanxi Palace daily.

515

It's understandable for her child.

516

By the way, Sister.

517

Noble Lady Mei is unwell and should we go see her too?

518

I hear Noble Lady Jia is frequenting her visit there.

519

Of course we must not be unkept in our decorum.

520

I have two giant bubbles by my mouth.

521

They said it can be rid of with mint powder.

522

But I see no result.

523

They get in the when I eat.

524

That's not good. If you can't manage to eat,

525

you and the child will suffer.

526

Imperial Consort Chun, it's been over a month.

527

I can't sleep at night.

528

And when I wake up, I feel dizzy and nauseous.

529

Now even my hands started to shake.

530

Don't be too nervous.

531

It is a discomfort to be pregnant.

532

With so many royal physicians, it will be alright.

533

Don't talk about that! It's the royal physicians who are incompetent.

534

Or else how come my ailment isn't cured?

535

Please dissipate your anger.

536

Your symptoms are all due to the pregnancy.

537

When you give birth, it will all be healed.

538

Yes, plus this is your first pregnancy so it's that much more of discomfort.

539

Seeing all these ill symptoms, usually they are all due to body fever.

540

I think it looks like a boy.

541

You all rise.

542

Everyone says that but I don't know if it's really true.

543

Imperial Concubine Chun has had a prince so she wouldn't be wrong.

544

I remember with the pregnancy of the third prince,

545

there was a lot of discomfort.

546

But after birth it was only stronger than ever.

547

That's great.

548

Why don't I see Noble Lady Jia today?

549

She heard you were unwell,

550

so she went to go find some red ginseng to rejuvenate you.

551

Noble Lady Jia is a fast talker but a sincere person.

552

If she hadn't forced you to think what's good for a fetus,

553

you wouldn't be able to remember about fish and shrimp.

554

Yes, it's true. She's really great.

555

The day is nearly dark after you spending so much time chatting with Noble Lady Mei.

556

Yes. It's early winter and it gets dark early.

557

Good thing we are going through the garden and it's faster to pick up first prince this way.

558

What was that sound?

559

Mistress, someone fell in water.

560

- What do I do?

- Hurry and save him.

561

Yes.

562

Put the light out closer.

563

Ack.

564

Mistress, it's Lianxin.

565

- Careful.

- Lianxin?

566

Hurry and get the water out.

567

It's out.

568

Lianxin?

569

Consort Xian.

570

Good you can talk.

571

Mistress, I will go and fetch the royal physician.

572

Are you foolish?

573

We are closest to Yangxin House right now and no one will pass this route.

574

You go and burn a fire.

575

Shuizhi, you go and pick up Yonghuang at the study hall and mention to no one about this.

576

Yes.

577

Careful. Come.

578

Sanbao, you go and be on watch out.

579

Yes.

580

You go and get some clothes for Lianxin to change into.

581

Yes.

582

Why did you seek death?

583

I wasn't seeking death.

584

I was --

585

I just slipped.
