Ruyi's Royal Love in the Palace

3

Episode 71

4

Royal Father, ever since Xiangjian Princess entered the palace,

5

several border tribe leaders have attempted crossing over to our realm.

6

And all the tribesmen are enjoying peace of mind. With the installation of the state agriculture system,

7

the commoners are working the fields diligently and living happily.

8

Royal Father?

9

Royal Father?

10

Continue.

11

I've said everything.

12

That's it then.

13

The border area is Han's (Consort Rong's tribe) homeland.

14

You must put in extra effort with Han's tribe, nothing must happen.

15

I understand.

16

Royal Father, I heard about the incident at Chengqian Palace.

17

I think...

18

Say it.

19

Xiangjian Princess originally entered the palace at her father's request.

20

She's broken hearted and resentful over Hanqi's death but she can't ignore filial piety either.

21

If Hanti could send a letter to her, to tell her to stay at the place with a peaceful heart.

22

I believe she wouldn't dare to disobey.

23

Alright. Good. Send someone to get it done immediately.

24

Yes.

25

His Majesty is going in and out of Chengqian Palace.

26

He doesn't even care that he's just getting turned down all the time.

27

The women of the harem,

28

are secretly resenting and cursing the one in Chengqian Palace.

29

But before His Majesty, they all make no noise of it.

30

Acting docile and appeased.

31

Empress Dowager can't even stop him so who else can?

32

I thought at first it was a momentary infatuation.

33

But after all this time,

34

His Majesty is still so interested in the Han clanswoman.

35

I really don't get it.

36

His Majesty has the world in his grasp.

37

What woman doesn't send herself to his door voluntarily?

38

Now he's met one whose wild nature can't be easily tamed.

39

She's riled his desire to conquer her.

40

He won't quit until she's in his grasp.

41

This is what's called, "when you can't have it, you keep trying."

42

I see how His Majesty is willing to do anything for Han.

43

I fear he's willing to do whatever it takes.

44

Yes. His Majesty is the emperor of a prosper land.

45

He can do anything without a care.

[ Hall of Mental Cultivation ]

48

Your Majesty is heading to Chengqian Palace again?

49

What's wrong?

50

Nothing. I just find that Mistress Han is always giving you the cold shoulder.

51

You needn't be so diligent with it.

52

There are lots of mistresses in the palace waiting for your visit.

53

What do you know? I've never not had what I wanted.

54

I am very happy to guess what she likes.

55

Greetings, Your Majesty.

56

Why are you here?

57

Your Majesty, are you heading to Chengqian Palace?

58

You're here to nag too?

59

Your Majesty, I am just worried about the Han clanswoman so I came especially.

60

Han clanswoman just came into the palace so it's not easy to adjust.

61

So that's why she might be frustrated and anxious.

62

I thought if there is some recipes from Han clan in her meals,

63

and get some hometown cooking for her,

64

or let her clansman be summoned to serve her and it will appease her boredom.

65

Your suggestion is really not bad.

66

It's definitely not bad. I didn't think of this.

67

Other than that, anything else?

68

Or else we can have Han clanswoman dedicate more performances for you.

69

It's better than staying around idle all day.

70

Fine. Okay then.

71

- Li Yu, did you remember this?

- Yes.

72

- Do it now.

- Yes.

73

Your Majesty still have work to do. I'm leaving first.

74

Consort Ling, you're the sensible one.

75

Raise the sedan.

76

His Majesty didn't flip any tags again?

77

Since someone moved into Chengqian Palace, His Majesty isn't even flipping the tags anymore.

78

It's been so many days already.

79

The log house won't need to work anymore.

80

You're airing your frustration and imagine the mistresses of the harem and their frustration.

81

What is this?

82

Go now.

83

Having you go to the palace has reaped a peaceful border.

84

The people are living with their minds appeased.

85

Our Han tribe is in far better predicament.

86

You take care of your health and reside in the palace well.

87

Do not let us be worried about you.

88

You must remember this always.

89

Mistress.

90

Go out.

91

Mistress, His Majesty dispatched men to deliver items again.

92

Go and take a look.

93

I don't want anything. Take them away.

94

Princess.

95

[ Gu Li ]

96

[ He Li ]

97

He Li, Gu Li, what are you doing here?

98

The Great Qing Emperor sent someone to escort us to come and serve you.

99

Saying you're alone in this palace and unadjusted to the life.

100

Princess, we finally met you.

101

I'm already being confined here.

102

Why do you still come?

103

We want to be with you.

104

Mistress, His Majesty has brought the Han tribe's cooks too.

105

They will cook your food in this Chengqian Palace daily.

106

To ease your yearning for your hometown. Look how great His Majesty treats you.

107

Princess, I heard that you are not used to the food here.

108

How can this be?

109

These are food from our home town.

110

Please try them.

111

Your Majesty.

112

The Han apparel you instructed to be made have finished.

113

May Your Majesty look over.

114

It's too simple.

115

Tell them to use gold threads for embroidery and sew in pearls and beads to a more extravagant effect.

116

Yes.

117

How is Chengqian Palace?

118

Your Majesty,

119

I hear the Han food that was sent in were all consumed by Princess Xiangjian.

120

The two Han servants were retained by the princess too.

121

In truth?

- yes.

122

It seems Consort Ling was right.

123

I imagine once this apparel gets done, Xiangjian will be pleased.

124

Naturally.

125

Yongqi. You've seen how things are in the palace recently.

126

Don't open your mouth if it's not your business or you will court trouble.

127

I know.

128

You know?

129

Do you really know or are you pretending?

130

How is it that I hear you were the one who suggested to your royal father.

131

To have Hanti write a letter to Han clanswoman?

132

To tell her to stay in the palace without worrying.

133

I only wish for a peaceful harem.

134

So Royal Father can focus on the royal court.

135

You are doing something that offends the crowd.

136

I won't dare to do it again.

137

Just that I really don't understand what happened to Royal Father.

138

Your royal father, when it comes to the Han clanswoman,

139

he seems to have fallen into magic barrier.

140

We know it's a magic barrier but no one can persuade him.

141

By the way,

142

how are things living in the Beile Manor? Are you used to it?

143

According to the palace rules, I cannot visit you there.

144

I'm doing well.

145

It's good then.

146

Your wife came by a few times.

147

She mentioned you took in a lady, with a Hu last name.

148

She's gentle and prudent and quite nice.

149

The wives like her. She's really quite good.

150

Great. To have someone you're fond of by you.

151

I am at ease to hear it.

152

When you have the time, bring her to me to see.

153

Yes.

154

Yun is the name of the herb rue.

155

Jiao as in jade horn.

156

That is your name. Yunjiao.

157

How is it that your father was a scribe but he didn't teach you to write?

158

My father was always busy so he didn't have time for me.

159

And they are somewhat chauvinist.

160

Saying a woman with no talent is her virtue.

161

By the way, Beile, did the princess consort tell about me,

162

to Consort Yu?

163

Princess Consort is only going by the palace rules. She praised you.

164

Today my mother said you should go to the palace in spare time so she can meet you.

165

Consort Yu wants to meet me?

166

What's wrong? You're shy?

167

My mother is a very nice person. You needn't be afraid.

168

Everything I have today was granted to me by you.

169

I am too busy to pay my gratitude as is.

170

Yunjiao, do you know this?

171

Though I have a legitimate wife and we are respectful to each other.

172

But it was from you that I discovered love between man and woman.

173

So I should thank you more.

174

I should thank you more.

175

These days with the Han clanswoman in the palace, the palace is in chaos.

176

My mother also said Han clanswoman is a spell to His Majesty.

177

But when I see you.

178

I understand my royal father some.

179

Gods above, may you protect.

180

Protect Hanqi to achieve peace after death.

181

Protect my Han tribesmen.

182

To be healthy and peaceful.

183

Protect me to leave here sooner.

184

Xiangjian, you've been wearing pure white for so long.

185

You should change into the Han apparel I prepared for you.

186

I know you are worried about the Han tribe.

187

You already saw it in your father's letter.

188

That since you came into the palace, the borders have flourished and Han tribe is achieving greater circumstance.

189

I will treat your tribesmen even better.

190

I already sent someone to retrieve Hanqi's body.

191

And he's already been taken back to Han tribe for formal burial.

192

This is the truth.

193

As for me, after Hanqi is buried respectfully, he can rest in peace.

194

And you can be at ease in the palace.

195

You can leave now.

196

Xiangjian, I already tried to find what pleases you.

197

I only want you to be happy.

198

A day I am here,

199

is a day I cannot be happy.

200

I know.

201

I know the palace has many rules and you feel unfamiliar.

202

It's alright. I will construct another palace for you.

203

So you can live there. Is that well?

204

Alright. I will come see you another day.

205

Congratulations, Your Majesty.

206

For what?

207

Your Majesty, Yongshuo Palace has sent words.

208

Consort Ling is three months pregnant.

209

Alright.

210

Raise.

211

Your Majesty, you're not going over to Yongshuo Palace to see?

212

Head to Cining Palace.

213

It's not the first time Consort Ling's had a baby.

214

Tell her to take care of it and that will do.

215

By the way, Li Yu, have the arrangements for Han tribe performance finished?

216

If they are arranged, have them come into the palace as soon as possible to accompany Han clanswoman.

217

It will be arranged within matter of days. May you be at ease.

218

Great.

219

Now His Majesty isn't even caring of any royal heirs.

220

That's true though. My children.

221

They were all sent to the dowagers in Shuokang Palace.

222

His Majesty doesn't care.

223

Don't get so flustered.

224

If you can birth a child, you can win favor.

225

When Empress loses favor one day, and your position is already secured,

226

it will be easy to bring the children back to you.

227

These years, if it weren't for your persuasion,

228

that day at the punishment bureau, I wouldn't have lasted.

229

This is all in the past.

230

You need to be generous minded.

231

Look at how His Majesty is. Not flipping any tags day after day.

232

Other can't even wish to get pregnant.

233

That's useless.

234

His Majesty is already favoring Han clanswoman.

235

His Majesty does his things and you do your things.

236

I don't believe that Han clanswoman can be favored forever.

237

No matter how she drags it on,

238

sooner or later the day that the empress dowager and the royal relatives won't stand it anymore shall come.

239

They will handle her and you can just be at peace.

240

Let that royal heir in your belly see the light.

241

Mother's coughing is getting only worse.

242

Royal Father hasn't come to visit at all.

243

His Majesty is busy with state affairs.

244

You think I don't know, Mother Wan?

245

Who in the entire capital doesn't know? Royal Father is infatuated with the Han clanswoman.

246

And he's not caring of the entire royal harem.

247

Don't speak ill of His Majesty. He has no fault.

248

Come.

- Mother.

- Yongzhang.

249

Your temper.

250

You ought to change it. This matter.

251

It's not for us to speak of.

252

Why can't we? The rumors in the palace are usually true.

253

His Majesty is entranced by the Han woman and ignores the harem.

254

The nobles in the capital are speaking so much of it.

255

Can His Majesty's legacy withstand such gossiping?

256

There's no place for you to talk.

257

I am the eldest among the royal heirs.

258

I must put in my filial piety and persuade Royal Father.

259

You shut up.

260

I am only aching for you.

261

Stop talking.

262

Sister is coughing like this already. You go out.

263

Sheesh.

264

Yongzhang is not mature. Don't get angry.

265

Greetings to Royal Father.

266

Are you here to bid wellness to your royal grandmother?

267

I went to Zhongcui Palace to see my mother and came to visit Cining Palace next.

268

Is your mother well?

269

Not so well.

270

What's wrong with her?

271

Mother has been coughing for months with no recovery.

272

Royal Father, you don't know?

273

Lately, I'm busy with court matters.

274

Later I will have the royal physician take a detailed look of her.

275

Thank you, Royal Father. I will come tomorrow again to greet you.

277

Your Majesty, 3rd prince begs your attendance.

278

Let him in.

- Yes.

279

Greetings to Royal Father.

280

Get on up.

281

Yongzhang, your second wife birthed a daughter for you.

282

Bring her in some time into the palace.

283

Let your mother see her so she can be happy.

- yes.

284

You reside outside the palace.

285

So you know more about the commoners than the other princes.

286

Yongqi discusses about the outside world often with me after he's moved out as well.

287

What do you know?

288

The capital is under your feet.

289

Everyone's well in time of prosperity.

290

Just that lately, there are some rumors about the palace out in the streets.

291

What rumors?

292

Royal Father, since the Han woman came into the palace, there are gossips rampant in the capital.

293

Saying Han woman is an enchantress.

294

She not only killed her husband, she also seduced you.

295

To make our Great Qing falter.

296

You listen to such delusional words?

297

Royal Father, but the people speak with chiseled weight.

298

And the nobles also speak the same.

299

They say since Han woman entered the palace, you've been ignoring the harem and the court.

300

That the era of prosperity will be ruined by her.

- Bastard.

301

Who taught you such words to defame me?

302

Your Majesty, please dissipate your anger.

- Your son doesn't dare.

303

Royal Father, I speak from filial devotion.

304

You dare to talk more?

- Royal Father.

305

- 3rd prince.

- You coveted the crown prince seat in youth.

306

Now you're acting like you're docile but you're really not.

307

Royal Father.

- Get lost.

308

It's for your sake.

- Please dissipate your anger.

309

3rd prince.

- She's ruining you.

310

I am devoted.

- 3rd prince.

311

Stop talking.

- Royal Father.

312

I am your royal son. I cannot be unfilial.

313

3rd prince.

314

You must be this cold?

315

Royal Father.

316

3rd prince, why do you bother?

317

All I said was the truth. I did not have any disloyal intention.

318

Why does he treat me like this?

319

3rd prince, I recommend to you.

320

Now His Majesty only sees the one in Chengqian Palace. Why do you hurt yourself by touching the nail?

321

I will escort you back first. Once his anger is dissipated, it might be better.

322

Royal Father is so cold-hearted.

323

3rd prince, why are you spitting out blood?

324

Get the royal physician.

325

Mistress, it's bad.

326

What happened?

327

Yangxin Palace went words. 3rd prince was reprimanded by His Majesty and became frustrated and angry.

328

And he vomited large amount of blood and passed out.

329

Where is he now?

- Physician rushed over to see him.

330

3rd prince can't be moved easily so he's in Xiefang Hall. Please go see him.

331

Get my sedan ready.

332

Yongzhang.

333

Greetings to Empress Dowager.

334

Don't be so noisy. You're getting in the physician's diagnose.

335

Yes.

336

Replying to Empress Dowager.

337

3rd prince was overly angry and suffered in his heart.

338

Now the blood and energy of all his organs are in a mess.

339

He shouldn't be moved at all and should stay in Xiefang Hall for quiet recovery.

340

I understand.

341

Hurry and get medicine for him and watch over him.

342

I understand. I shall go now.

343

Thank you for your care, Empress Dowager.

344

I thank you on Yongzhang's behalf.

345

Yongzhang is my royal grandson.

346

I can't ignore it.

347

And this matter, only I dare to ask of.

348

Noble Consort Chun, I heard your dysentery has gone to your lungs.

349

You needn't stay here to drag on.

350

I already made the arrangements.

351

I have Yongzhang's wives coming into the palace to be here.

352

Empress Dowager. Yongzhang is my son.

353

I beg you.

354

To let me stay on guard here by Yongzhang.

355

Mother. Mother. His Majesty casts me away.

356

Yongzhang.

357

Don't be scared. Your mother is here.

358

Don't be scared. His Majesty wouldn't.

359

His Majesty wouldn't cast you away.

360

Yongzhang.

361

Retribution. Retribution.

362

Noble Consort Chun, you stay here by his side then.

363

Thank you, Empress Dowager.

364

Yongzhang. Yongzhang.

365

Go now.

366

Your Majesty, have some tea.

367

Your Majesty, you haven't talked all night.

368

You must be worried about 3rd prince.

369

I went to find out earlier.

370

Noble Consort Chun and the royal physician are both by his side.

371

That ingrate son. Who cares about him?

372

Your Majesty. 3rd prince, though he's confused,

373

since he lost grace before Empress Xiaoxian's memorial,

374

and after he was reprimanded, he hasn't committed any wrongs.

375

This time, I just don't know what's gotten into him.

376

To speak so rebelliously.

377

I thought so too. Who is putting words into his mind?

378

It can't be.

379

3rd prince is an adult.

380

Who would he listen to?

381

Noble Consort Chun?

382

Yongzhang's temperament is direct and he lacks calmness.

383

He spoke to His Majesty about Xiangjian and how would His Majesty even listen?

384

His Majesty is on the summit of his bliss.

385

He won't allow his own son speak of his favorite woman.

386

Noble Consort Chun hasn't slept in days, anxious by his side.

387

Royal Physician said 3rd prince was overly agitated and went straight to his heart. I fear --

388

Hailan. Don't speak senselessly. Yongzhang is still so young.

389

But Noble Consort Chun. The royal physician said her coughing has already damaged her lungs.

390

She can't endure this torment. We should talk to her.

391

Yes.

392

May Your Majesty forgive Yongzhang.

393

Your Majesty. Your Majesty, forgive Yongzhang.

394

You dare to come here?

395

I know. It's all my fault.

396

I am happy to be punished.

397

You said this yourself then.

398

These days, what have you done?

399

You are well aware.

400

Your Majesty. I am well aware.

401

That you're not fond of me.

402

And I annoy you.

403

But Yongzhang.

404

Yongzhang offended you without intention.

405

Yongzhang is unintentional but you're intentional.

406

Empress. Empress.

407

What's the rush?

408

Empres. Mistress Chun has courted His Majesty's fury.

409

She is ignoring her illness and kneeling in the rain bleeding.

410

His Majesty told her to go back to her palace but she's not obedient.

411

Why is His Majesty so angry?

412

Mistress Chun is too worried about 3d prince.

413

So she went and begged by His Majesty and I found it to be not right.

414

May you go take a look.

415

I understand. You go back first.

- Yes.

416

You go and Zhongcui Palace to watch the arrangements.

417

I understand.

418

Sister. This matter involves the Han woman.

419

You must be cautious before His Majesty.

420

I know it.

- I will go with you.

421

Mistress.

422

Luyun.

423

Luyun. Whatever it is that you have to say, go back to your palace first.

424

Get up.

425

Mistress.

426

May Your Empress Highenss be generous.

427

To allow me to kneel here until His Majesty's anger dissipates.

428

Your Majesty, I am at fault.

429

Let me take all the punishments alone.

430

Your Majesty. It's my fault not raising my son well.

431

Your suspicion of Noble Consort Chun never waned.

432

Your Majesty.

433

Your Majesty.

434

Empress, this matter doesn't involve you. Go back.

435

Noble Consort Chun is ill. Please forgive her offense.

436

I never told her to come to Yangxin Hall.

437

She insisted it. What can I do?

438

Your Majesty, Yongzhang --

439

Yongzhang is caring of me and that's why he upset you.

440

He offended you.

441

It's my fault.

442

Of course it's your fault. You failed to teach your son.

443

You can't see how Empress Xiaoxian raised her children, then at least learn from Consort Yu.

444

Consort Yu is docile and dutiful as a mother.

445

Not like you with ulterior motive and causing trouble.

446

Your Majesty.

447

I never had that intention.

448

You did not? What is this?

449

That year Sulian died.

450

You and Imperial Noble Concubine Shujia did so much.

451

Your Majesty, the bead flower was framing of Imperial Noble Concubine Shujia on her.

452

She could plant the bead flower but she is the one who coveted the empress seat.

453

All the evil deeds you committed.

454

Mistress.

455

Mistress.

- Sister.

456

May you allow Consort Yu to bring Noble Consort Chun to be treated.

457

I have something to report to you.

458

Forget it. You all go back.

459

Mistress.

460

Hurry and bring Luyun back.

461

Noble Consort Chun is quite ill. Her doing today was out of her desperate love for her son.

462

Your Majesty, why this seriousness?

463

The wench stayed in the palace so long but is still so unruly.

464

To cause so much drama. If it weren't for her instigation,

465

how would Yongzhang easily spew offensive words towards Xiangjian?

466

Yongzhang did indeed offend you on words.

467

But he is devoted to you.

468

Over this Han woman,

469

Your Majesty has harmed your relationship with your son and harmed the feelings of Noble Consort Chun.

471

What is this tea? I can't get used to it.

472

This is the dragon green tea you always drink.

473

Li Yu. Get my jujube flower tea.

474

Yes.

475

[ Zhongcui Palace ]

476

Your Highness is still staring at the 'The Picture of the Ode of the River Goddess'

477

The Goddess moves ever so lightly and gracefully.

478

Cao Zhi was infatuated by her.

479

Infatuation doesn't mean that the love was reciprocated.

480

Longing but out of reach, what's the point?

481

Only the one's in the middle of it, will understand the different layers of feelings.

482

Ruyi, have a taste of this Russian olive flower tea.

483

It tastes sweet and soothes the throat, I like it very much.

484

And?

485

Russian olive flower grows near the Han Tribe, it's Consort Rong's favourite.

486

You are loving it on account of another.

487

Your Highness, I really don't understand.

488

What's gotten between you and Consort Rong?

489

Ruyi, I adore her you must think that,

490

I have lost my mind.

491

But I can't do anything about it, can you tell me what's wrong with me?

492

I asked you the question and now you're asking me?

493

I can conquer a fierce and savage tribe,

494

but I can't conquer a woman's heart.

495

Empress, Consort Ying is outside seeking attendance.

496

Your Highness, I will go see Consort Ying.

497

Greetings, Empress.

498

What's going on?

499

Empress, the concubines have gathered in front of the Yikun Palace, all of them kneeling.

500

First of all, they feel that Royal Consort Chun and her son have been wronged.

501

Secondly, they hope that His Highness can send Consort Rong away.

502

Empress, I don't want to hold His Highness hostage.

503

But seeing Royal Consort Chun like this...

504

I can't help but feeling intimately interdependent.

505

Maybe Empress, you can think of a solution.

506

One that can both soothe Royal Consort Chun and calm this matter down.

507

Don't let this blow out of proportion.

508

You can go back now, I will try to think of something.

509

What solution?

510

They dare to be impertinent while being my concubines?

511

If they like to kneel, let them be. I'd like to see how long they can hold out.

512

Your Highness, now that you are here,

513

I will speak up boldly.

514

It's indeed not proper for the concubines to be kneeling outside the palace.

515

But it's only because they feel Royal Consort Chun and her son have been wronged.

516

On top of that, it's because of Your Highness' blind infatuation for Consort Rong.

517

How dare you!

518

I only sproke what was in my heart. Keeping it a secret from Your Highness is at fault anyhow,

519

and so is being blunt. Your Highness, just punish me as you see fit.

520

Your Highness, you let your emotions cloud your judgement.

521

You will hurt the feelings of the 49 Mongolian tribes.

522

And make us doubt that the Emperor we look up to and admire,

523

is a wise ruler?

524

Impertinent!

525

I'm not being impertinent,

526

I'm sad. I'm feeling sad for Royal Consort Chun and the Third Prince.

527

I'm also feeling sad for myself and all the concubines.

528

I'm feeling sad for the Empress and you, Your Highness.

529

Stop this nonsense, go back to your palace!

530

531

Master, the concubines are kneeling at Yikun Palace again.

532

They want to have the Emperor remove you from the palace.

533

Isn't it nice, then?

534

I don't want to stay anyway.

535

I'd glad if they can kneel me out of the palace.

536

Your Highness, the concubines are kneeling outside my palace. I must go look.

537

Don't mind them!

538

All those jealous women, you think I'll let them have their way?

539

Do I need their permission to like someone?

540

They can kneel all they like, even if they kneel,

541

I will not sent Consort Rong away!

542

If Your Highness is keeping Consort Rong, please think of her as well.

543

Even if she had your favour, you have to keep everyone content.

544

How will she spend her days here, surrounded by all of them.

545

Consort Ying her words have been rash.

546

But they are accurate and true.

547

Your Highness must not let your anger,

548

cause a rift between you, the Mongilian tribes and families.

549

I've been rash today, indeed.

550

Let's promote Consort Chun to Imperial Noble Consort Chunhui.

551

Consort Ying has been too blunt but I won't make a fuss about it.

552

Have her take care of herself, I will have a royal physician take a look.

553

Noble Lady Qing can been thoughtful and discreet this time,

554

she will be restored to her Imperial concubine position.

555

I thank you in their place.

556

Concerning Consort Rong, I dare not defy Your Highness' will.

557

But please think of her.

558

Don't be rash and thus causing discontent in the harem.

559

Greeting to Empress.

560

You can all get up.

561

Empress, we are all kneeling here,

562

because we would like His Emperor to understand us.

563

To sent Consort Rong away and thus consoling Noble Consort Chun and her son.

564

His Emperor and I understand your thoughts.

565

His Emperor granted Noble Consort Chun to be Imperial Noble Consort.

566

Empress, Imperial Noble Consort and her son have been awfully wronged this time.

567

Even she has been promoted, the root of all evil hasn't been eliminated.

568

Her promotion will be nothing but a hollow title.

569

The harem will still not know peace.

570

Us sisters still won't be at easy.

571

Are you kneeling here for Imperial Noble Consort and her son,

572

or are you using this to have peace of mind?

573

Empress, do you doubt our sincerity?

574

If you were sincere, you'd be kneeling at Yangxin Dian.

575

You are afraid to anger His Highness. You won't be able to face the consequences,

576

and thus implicating your families.

577

♫ Being your favorite and being forgotten both are argued in my heart, at a loss to arrive at an explanation. ♫

578

♫ You bear witness to constant changes in my well-being, my sorrows and my joys, the path of my dreams forever cut off

579

♫ You draw my hand to embroider all alone in my loneliness, silken clothes pile up under the moonlight. ♫

580

♫ Telling myself they might be used for warmth, but who would dare? ♫

581

♫ Whose life after life is filled with paired images of love and resentment? ♫r

582

♫ One side is beautiful, the other expressionless and silent. ♫

583

♫ From a distance, visits come around without word of your approach, ♫

584

♫ filling time between acts perhaps? ♫

585

♫ Feelings fracture, forgive and wistfully anticipate, forgetting they’re part of the paired image, ♫

586

♫ One day in cold indifference, the next in warm recollection. ♫r

587

♫ If only we might perpetually walk in the brilliant sunlight ♫

588

♫ This lifetime has been so dismally overcast. ♫

589

♫ From now on, this lifetime will be... ♫

♫ without clouds. ♫
