(Trying to establish authority, huh?)

(As you wish.)

(It's time to lose it, Princess. You can't tolerate this.)

How dare you throw away the wine in front of me?

You'd better have a good explanation.

Otherwise...

How can such rubbish wine be worthy of Your Highness's attention?

Please give me a second.

(Bloody Mary. Here we go.)

(This is my strategy of delayed gratification.)

What do you think, Your Highness?

Doesn't it remind you

of two trusting lovers cuddling up?

I am very pleased.

Say it. What reward would you like?

I want you.

I want you.

(I confessed on your behalf. Hurry up.)

(Hurry up.)

I-I want you

to drink the cocktails I mix every day.

(So useless. This is infuriating.)

Let's see if you can

provide me with new experiences forever.

Of course, I can.

Your Highness may experience it for yourself.

Your Highness, Minister Zhang has arrived.

Come with me.

I pay my respect

to Your Highness.

(He has such an imposing aura.)

Stop shaking. Straighten up.

Imagine yourself as a stud.

I mean, imagine yourself as sturdy.

Minister Zhang, if I'm not mistaken,

you've been a Chief Captain for six months now, right?

Your Highness, it's been six months and five days.

I managed to take this position

all thanks to your support.

So you haven't forgotten that.

The four former captains of yours

were assigned by me.

But you replaced them out of nowhere.

Shouldn't you explain this to me?

Please don't get me wrong.

It's normal personnel transfer.

They have done great jobs,

so I've promoted them by half a rank,

which makes them Senior Captains.

A nominal position without real power.

Well played.

I swear I serve Your Highness

without ulterior motives.

(To the Sixth Lord) Do these look familiar to you?

These are your letters with my Sixth Uncle.

Your Highness, the Sixth Lord and I

are merely in touch regarding court affairs.

Minister Zhang, do you really think I'm easy to fool?

I could grant you power.

That means I can also bring you down.

You blatantly accepted bribes.

Do you confess?

There are always ways

to make false accusations.

Guards, seize him.

Who dares?

I am the Chief Captain.

Without His Majesty's decree,

who dares to lay a hand on me?

Minister Zhang

attempted to defile me

out of disrespect and failed.

Embarrassed and infuriated,

he intended harm upon me

and was killed on the spot.

Seize him.

You're worried about my safety?

Aren't you afraid of death?

I am.

But I instinctively wanted to save you.

Why?

Because

I... I...

Xiaoxiao, what should I do now?

I can't be there to help you all the time.

Try to improvise.

Aren't you a smooth-talker?

Why are you mute now?

Your Highness, I am not good with words.

But I do know

that if something like this happens again,

I will still choose to save you without any hesitation.
