[Mistaken Love]

[Episode 4]

You've finally arrived.

You know who I am?

I do now.

Who are you exactly?

If you make me late for greeting the Empress Dowager,

you can't afford to bear the consequences.

Let go of me.

What are you doing?

How dare you be disrespectful to me?

You were disrespectful to me first.

Insolent!

Do you know who I am?

I hold the highest position in the entire harem.

Kneel down immediately!

-My Qingshuo's Crown Princess -What are you doing?

has no manners.

-Let go of me! -Teach her a lesson for me!

Stop!

Jin...

Second Prince.

Empress Dowager,

what is the meaning of this?

The Crown Princess has offended me.

Of course, she needs to be properly disciplined.

Empress Dowager, please don't get upset over this woman.

I've found the rabbit lantern

you were looking for earlier.

Do you have time to take a look, Empress Dowager?

Oh, that's wonderful.

Second Prince, you're so good to me.

The Second Prince truly cares about you.

His body hasn't fully recovered,

yet he spent the whole afternoon helping you choose lanterns.

Yes, no matter how much I begged him before,

he wouldn't do it.

But today, he finally came around.

What are you doing?

Stop!

He did it for her.

Let go of me.

What are you doing?

Crown Princess, since you come from an uncivilized land,

it's understandable that you don't know the rules of Qingshuo.

But now that you're in Qingshuo,

you must abide by the palace rules here.

I, the Empress Dowager, will personally teach you today,

so you won't act rashly

and lose your composure again.

You call me "Crown Princess,"

yet why do you use private punishment on me?

Is this the rule of Qingshuo?

I'm the Empress Dowager;

my rules are the rules of Qingshuo.

Naturally, I can discipline whomever I please.

Guards!

Tie her up!

What are you doing?

Crown Princess, you must learn these important matters by heart.

I will recite a rule,

and you will repeat it.

If you miss a single word,

the bells will chime once more.

Do you understand?

I don't understand.

For all women,

first, learn how to conduct themselves.

The way to conduct oneself

lies solely in maintaining purity and chastity.

Hit them.

Hit them again!

Crown Princess, if you still refuse to recite it,

these bells will keep ringing,

and your ears will be ruined.

The timbre of this pair of ornate bells,

a tribute from the Southern Region,

is indeed more pleasant than the chime bells in His Majesty's palace.

Crown Princess, it seems you didn't hear me clearly.

I will repeat it once more.

For all women

first, learn how to conduct themselves.

The way to conduct oneself

lies solely in maintaining purity and chastity.

Hit them.

Hit them again!

Hit them again!

Hit!

For all women...

As princes,

one of you fails to maintain discipline in his inner court,

[Emperor of Qingshuo]

while the other acts without discretion,

causing all these rumors to spread.

Do you care about our dignity at all?

Father, please calm your anger.

It's all just rumors spread by petty people.

This is the woman you want to marry.

Bringing shame to our royal family.

I guarantee, Father,

that this is not Conghuan's fault.

Fine.

Then it's your fault.

Guards!

Take the Second Prince to the imperial prison.

Confine him for five days and give him lashes.

There's no need.

I'll go by myself.

You can't capture the remnants of the assassins for the court,

and you can't even control the woman in your own palace.

What use are you as Crown Prince?

Father, please calm down.

Those remnants of the assassins are really...

You couldn't catch them,

but Mo Jin captured them for you long ago.

Father...

If you dare to disobey again,

you will no longer be the Crown Prince.

I wouldn't dare, Father.

Hit.

Your Highness,

are you really going to receive the lashes?

The Crown Princess has caused quite a bit of trouble.

Fortunately, the Empress Dowager is punishing her

to avenge you.

The Empress Dowager summoned the Crown Princess to the Jingsi Chamber.

Well...

Your Highness!

Hit.

Hit!

Crown Princess, you can't go on like this.

Keep ringing.

Stop it, all of you!

Who gave you the audacity?

How come I didn't know this is how rules are taught in the palace?

Jin...

What brings you here, Second Prince?

Conghuan.

Empress Dowager,

you allow servants to bully their master.

She disrespected me first.

Conghuan.

Conghuan?

You...

You can't protect her like this.

Empress Dowager.

Empress Dowager, please don't be angry with the Second Prince;

it might disturb the royal family's harmony.

As the Empress Dowager,

it is my duty to discipline the princesses and concubines.

Help the Crown Princess up now.

Stop them for me.

Second Prince.

Second Prince.

If you don't want to die, get out of my way.

Brother Jin...

Empress Dowager, please don't be angry.

Stay still.

We need to treat your ears at Imperial Hospital.

Conghuan?

Conghuan.

Put her down.

Heng.

If you don't hand her over to me now,

every moment of delay

will cause more damage to her hearing.

Heng...

Empress Dowager.

Brother Jin has never been this harsh with me before.

Did I do something wrong?

Empress Dowager, you were just trying to maintain the royal family's dignity.

You did nothing wrong.

But from now on, you should always remember that you're the Empress Dowager.

We can't break the royal rules.

I understand.

Conghuan, you're awake.

Conghuan.

Conghuan, can you hear me speaking?

I... I can't hear anymore.

Heng, I can't hear anymore.

-I... You... -Conghuan.

Conghuan.

What did you say?

Say it again.

I can't hear anymore, Heng.

I can't hear...

Conghuan, don't be afraid.

I promise you,

this will never happen again.

All those who insult and bully us

will all pay the price.
