=Episode 34=

Consort Dowager.

I've always loved dressing up.

Before Fu was married,

she was renowned

for her grace and noble bearing.

All these fine clothes

were crafted by my hands.

Later,

after she married far away in the capital,

Binglan came along.

I often prepared outfits for her as well.

It's a shame

she doesn't resemble me.

Though her features are delicate,

she's still somewhat a small-town beauty.

None of these hairpins

suit her.

I never expected

to end up

with a daughter-in-law like you.

Whether in light or heavy makeup,

you carry it all.

Dress well,

and you'll truly look like a noble lady.

No wonder Xingzhou, with all his pickiness,

is so deeply taken with you.

Xingzhou has been gone
for over ten days now.

You must miss him dearly,
Consort Dowager.

As women

married into military families,

we've spent

half our lives waiting.

There's no room left

for the word "longing."

I've lived like this,

and I believe

so will you.

For Xingzhou to be so enlightened,

he must take after you.

Is he?

I suppose.

He certainly takes after me.

A gentleman is slow to speak but swift to act.

Xingzhou's deep affection for you

must have been ingrained in him
from a young age.

No matter where he is,

his heart is always tethered to you,

to this home.

Nothing is more comforting

than hearing

that he is safe and sound.

You wouldn't believe it,

but Xingzhou has never

written home to say

he's safe since he joined the army.

Never?

Has he written to you?

No.

Then don't expect it.

I'm sure you will

get used to it eventually.

None of these

match the hairpin.

Do you have any other hair accessories?

There may not be any that are quite suitable.

It doesn't matter.

Bring them out, and I'll take a look.

There truly aren't any more.

Isn't your trousseau right here?

(To my beloved wife)

This is Xingzhou's handwriting.

To my beloved wife.

One day seems longer than months three.

This is the calligraphy sample he left me.

A calligraphy sample?

He left it before he went to battle.

He never wrote home.

It rains heavily in Dongzhou today.

I was reminded of your wrist pain,

and my heart longed to return.

Consort Dowager,

Xingzhou must miss you deeply too.

All right.

Knowing that you've been in touch

puts my mind at ease.

I just

didn't know about the pain in your wrist.

Make sure to have someone
take good care of you.

After all,

replying to so many letters

can be quite exhausting.

It's nothing serious.

The day grows late.

I shall leave you be.

Consort Dowager,

please stay for dinner.

The chef prepared your favorite delicacies.

Moyao, we shall proceed.

Consort Dowager.

Ten days later,

the official selection ceremony

will be held at the Zhenzhou Prefecture.

As usual,

each family must send a representative

to present their porcelain.

Mr. He,

none of us have been able

to produce black-bodied celadon.

If we go,

it might be in vain.

Indeed.

To go empty-handed...

The porcelain merchants of Lingquan

are in this together.

If one of us is selected,

it means we all are.

It was so in the past,

and it will be the same in the future.

The He family will share

our techniques and raw materials

with you all.

Wonderful.

This time,

I won't show up myself.

You will represent the He family

at the prefecture.

Starting next year,

you will take charge.

Thank you, Father.

Jia,

you're getting on in years as well.

It's time for your son

to gain some experience.

Otherwise, Lord Jiang might

not even recognize him.

Mr. He is right.

I'll have my son go out

and meet the challenges as well.

Everyone,

when did I ever say

this was the He family's work?

- What?
- What does that mean?

Zhen,

what do you mean?

The black-bodied celadon
was my creation in Beizhou.

It belongs to my Zhen's.

If it's to be presented,

it should be under the name
of Zhen's of Beizhou.

Ridiculous.

Zhen's?

That was a name

Father gave you.

Zhen's is merely

a branch of our He family.

Zhen,

we are all one family.

How could you

say something so disheartening?

Not only do I say it,

but I also refuse to share

the firing techniques

and raw materials.

You dare defy us?

Ingrate!

How dare you?

And why wouldn't she dare?

Princess.

- Princess.
- Princess.

Please sit.

Today, I am just the shopkeeper
of Yushao Porcelain Shop.

There's no need to be troubled.

Princess,

you must have heard

that the selection of Lingquan porcelain
as imperial tribute

is crucial

to the tax revenue
of the entire Zhenzhou County.

But my daughter insists on her own way,

and it could ruin

the hundred-year legacy

of Lingquan porcelain

and the financial stability of Zhenzhou.

Indeed.

That's right, Princess.

Zhen keeps speaking

of her Zhen's in Beizhou,

implying that her work

has no connection

to Lingquan of Zhenzhou.

You will

be the future Princess of Zhenzhou,

right?

Could you persuade her?

Yes. Please persuade her.

Persuasion usually requires

an exchange of conditions, does it not?

The imperial tribute is so important,

and He Zhen's black-bodied celadon

is the only choice.

Perhaps she should

be the one in charge from now on.

What? A woman in charge?

Why should she?

Mr. He,

do you know what He Zhen truly desires

upon her return?

Didn't you already say it?

She wants to take charge,

using the selection to bargain.

Princess,

this must

be an idea

you gave my sister.

What she wants

is not merely to take charge.

She wants the respect

of the He family,

the trade guild,

and all of Lingquan.

Taking charge isn't what matters.

The imperial tribute

isn't what matters either.

How can that not matter?

The Lingquan porcelain industry is complacent

and short-sighted,

selling only

to the imperial family

and the nobility.

Though this has been our century-old tradition,

it is not sustainable.

Losing half of the imperial tribute would mean

a loss of seventy to eighty percent
of our income.

But Lingquan's fine porcelain and celadon

are not the only porcelain in the world,

nor are Beizhou's black-bodied celadon.

What we need to do

is to open up trade routes,

making Lingquan

the capital of porcelain trade of the world.

As the saying goes,

porcelain flows throughout the world.

(He Mansion)

Haven't you

(He)
always wanted the He family?

You...

What is this about?

Father, only when you hold me in your heart

can I truly have the He family.

Inheriting the family business

is not important

for me.

(Black-Bodied Celadon)
This is the firing technique

and raw material formula
for black-bodied celadon.

I'm handing them over to you, Father.

I've also asked Ms. Liu

for Beizhou's deep brown clay.

She promised me

that in ten days,

she would have her escort agency

(Black-Bodied Celadon)
deliver a thousand dan.

Actually,

I've heard from the elders

that you praised my porcelain work

in front of them.

I may not have heard it myself,

but it made me

very happy.

Hard to say goodbye?

(He Mansion)

No need to be.

When your brothers get married,

we'll have to come back.

Isn't that right?

Don't be upset.

Let me take you somewhere.

Where?

Do you remember

when your brother

tricked us

into that restaurant

and drugged us?

When I held you

and put you on the bed,

I really wanted

to kiss you.

Why don't we

make up

for it now?

What are you talking about?

Look.

Being with me,

you'll be laughing so hard every day
that your stomach will hurt.

Physician Zhao,

I might need you to treat my stomach!

Why are you upset again?

Zhao Quan.

Are you sure you won't regret

going to the mountains
to make porcelain with me?

I've thought it over.

I can give up everything,

but I just want to be with you forever.

If you succeed in making porcelain,

I'll smile with you.

If you fail,

I'll cheer you up.

As long as you're willing,

I'll always assist you.

No matter where we go,

I'll stay with you forever.

Your Highness, practicing calligraphy?

Did you write this?

Do you like this piece?

I've seen many calligraphy works,

but I like yours the best.

(Kun)
This piece shows strength in the strokes.

It just so happens
that I don't have any decor at my place

that would be ideal for displaying calligraphy.

Miss Shi,

the character "Kun" is used by the Empress.

I may like it,

but in terms of status,

in front of others,

I absolutely wouldn't dare
to disrespect the Empress.

However,

as your elder sister,

it would be improper
for me to defer to you.

Do you remember

the jade pendant I always wear?

Why not add a stroke

to the character "Kun"

and make it "Shen"?

It signifies a beautiful jade,

and jade is a stone.

It suits us sisters perfectly.

But it would outshine

the Empress's "Kun" character.

Sister, if you want my calligraphy,

I shall not refuse.

But,

"Shen" is the ninth in the earthly branches,

and nine

is the number of the Emperor.

So in the calligraphy I give you,

I can't include the character "Shen,"

nor can I leave just the character "Wang."
[*Wang: Emperor]

Therefore...

(Tu)
[*Tu: Earth]

I'll give you

the character "Tu,"

signifying

that one should be down to earth.

What do you think?

I don't want it.

Sister,

the Empress wants you to have it.

So you must accept it.

Xueji,

don't forget Father's instructions.

Greetings, Your Highness.

Enter.

Your Highness,

I'm here to deliver the Emperor's decree.

His Majesty said

that as the weather turns colder,

the atmosphere in the palace
should change accordingly.

Warm clothing must be of the finest quality

but not wasteful.

We must practice thrift

and reduce the number of idle people

in the palace.

What does that mean?

I am not an idle person.

Of course not.

His Majesty cares for you, Miss Shi.

He said

that once you've visited

all the gardens in the palace,

you should be safely escorted out.

(Securing the Nation)
Your fourth daughter is talented and beautiful,

truly winning hearts.

She merely read some books

and learned a few minor skills,

nothing profound.

It's one thing for you

to be humble in front of me,

but you mustn't say that

at the betrothal discussion.

Betrothal discussion?

Yes.

With such a fine daughter

of marriageable age,

how can you not be anxious

to find her a good match?

Why do you look worried?

Is it because you haven't
found her a suitable match?

How about I take charge

and find a nobleman

for your fourth daughter to marry?

But she must also take this seriously.

If she always hangs out
with her sister in the palace,

she might miss out.

I am grateful for Your Majesty's concern.

No need.

This is also a matter of the royal family.

Yes.

However,

is this

Your Majesty's idea,

or did the Empress suggest it?

Pardon my directness,

(Virtuous and Disciplined)
but the Empress

lost her mother early

and was not properly guided,

so she retains some small-mindedness
from her lowly birth.

- I…
- The Empress

is the most virtuous and kind-hearted woman
I have ever known.

This is my own decision.

(Mansion of Lord Zhennan)

This year's flowers
are blooming better than ever.

Every year,

the flowers in your mansion

bloom the brightest.

Not at all.

It's the Mansion of Lord Huaiyang

that looks stunning.

Look over there.

There are even some new varieties.

Let's go over and take a look.

What kind is this?

It's called "Spring Day Mountain Bloom."

I apologize for being late.

Princess.

I wish you a joyous
and prosperous birthday, Madam.

I'm late today.

Please don't be upset.

You stand upon ceremony too much.

I am so delighted

that you could come today, Princess.

Greetings, Consort Dowager.

Greetings, Mrs. Lian,

Miss Lian.

The hairpin on your head

doesn't seem to be jade

or emerald.

Is it...

It's a night-glowing pearl.

A night-glowing pearl?

It's as big as a golden pill.

I've heard

that the Cui family has a legendary hairpin
with a night-glowing pearl.

Is this the one?

It's no longer in style

and isn't really a treasure.

It's been sitting at home

for so long.

Miantang looks good wearing it,

so I let her wear it.

But we'll have to wait until it gets dark

to see its glow.

There's still some time

before it gets dark.

I can't wait

to see the pearl's light.

Yes, Madam.

Before the banquet, let us have a look.

That's right.

In that case,

ladies,

since the other female guests

have not yet arrived,

please follow me to the tearoom.

How can this be?

The night-glowing pearl on this hairpin

isn't glowing.

What's going on?

This doesn't look like a night-glowing pearl,

more like an ordinary stone.

Sister,

could it be that you don't want
to give it to her?

What nonsense!

I am a Consort Dowager.

If I didn't want to give it,

even the Great Deities

couldn't take it

from me.

If I wanted to give it,

why would I use a fake

to fool others?

Aunt, please don't be angry.

We all trust you.

But the gem on this hairpin

isn't the real night-glowing pearl.

Something must be wrong.

Let me ask you,

the other day I gave you the real hairpin,

did I not?

Yes, you did.

Good.

If that's the case,

then explain

why this hairpin has become a fake.

Did you switch it?

Yes.

Why?

I switched it

for the Consort Dowager's sake.

What do you mean?

The Consort Dowager has always

honored our ancestors and respected traditions.

According to ancestral rules,

this hairpin

should only be given to the new bride

after completing the six rites.

But the Consort Dowager,

out of kindness and deep affection for me,

feared that my humble origins

might invite criticism,

so she gave me

this hairpin early

to wear in public.

I wanted to honor her intention

but could not bear to let the Dowager

break the rules for my sake.

If I were to defy her,

I would be unfilial.

If I were to comply,

the Consort Dowager would
be going against family tradition.

I was truly in a difficult position,

so I came up with a foolish idea:

to wear an ordinary hairpin

before completing the six rites,

hoping to please both sides.

But today,

I have made a fool of myself

in front of all the ladies.

I am indeed guilty

and ask for the Consort Dowager's punishment.

So you're saying

the real hairpin hasn't been lost?

It hasn't.

Princess, please rise.

Your loyalty should be praised,

not punished.

Thank you for your kindness and mercy.

Since the real hairpin isn't lost,

why not bring it out?

It could clear up the misunderstanding

and prove the Princess's innocence.

Also,

we've all been curious

about the night-glowing pearl all day

and would love to see it.

Yes.

Well…

Binglan,

your manners.

How can the hairpin be shown here?

To see it,

you'd have to visit the mansion,

wouldn't you all agree?

Yes.

Consort Dowager.

Princess, what do you think?

You're all welcome to visit.

This is the best time of year

to see the flowers.

Lord Lian has an urgent case,

concerning the royal family.

What happened?

Sister,

Hanshan is dealing with an urgent case

involving the royal family.

How is the situation at the front?

My Lord.

When will reinforcements arrive?

We received word

that the Ji and Lu armies
haven't sent reinforcements.

They are holding their positions,
and it's unclear why.

What's worse,

the Left Wing of the Prince Lu's army,
originally heading for Dongling Pass,

was not intercepted

and is now turning back towards Tongyu.

If they form a pincer movement
with the Right Wing army

outside the valley,

we stand no chance of victory.

My Lord,

what should we do now?

We're outnumbered

and cannot afford a direct confrontation.

Today, they will surely launch an attack.

Mount Li's bare rocky walls

and narrow path

make it easy to defend and difficult to attack.

For now, we can only retreat to Mount Li,

use the terrain to hold them off,

and then find a way to break through.

Pass the order:

the entire army is to retreat to Mount Li.

As you command.

Bring him in.

Greetings, Consort Dowager.

I'm Gu,

the owner of Yongli Pawnshop.

I've been running the business
in Zhenzhou for ten years.

Repeat what you just said,

word for word.

Yesterday, a customer came to my shop.

It was a maid servant.

She wanted to pawn a hairpin.

The moment I saw it,

I knew it was no ordinary item.

After asking further,

she revealed that it belonged
to the Mansion of Lord Huaiyang.

Ladies, please take a look.

Could this be the real
night-glowing pearl hairpin?

What did the maid say?

After I questioned her repeatedly,

she only said

it belonged to her mistress,

who was in a hurry to pawn it.

I did not dare

to ask further.

Her mistress?

Does that not mean the Princess?

Bring Princess Huaisang here.

The item is in the room.

Wait here for a moment.

I just couldn't understand.

She's destined to become a princess consort.

The hairpin would be hers eventually.

Why pawn it?

I heard she has businesses

in Beizhou.

That explains it.

The rewards she gets stay in the royal family.

It's always better

to send money back home.

This is the way of small households.

If you wish to marry into the royal family,

you must be of equal status.

Enough, say no more.

I've changed my attire.

Sorry to keep you all waiting.

I find the pearl the Princess is wearing

seems even brighter.

Indeed.

How could there be two hairpins?

How did the fake

end up in the hands
of the Consort Dowager?

The fake?

It's fake?

How do you know it's fake?

Because I made it.

I mixed jade powder and fluorite powder,

melted them into a paste,

and coated a porcelain bead with it.

As long as it's exposed
to enough sunlight during the day,

it will glow for several nights.

The method is known to the craftsmen

at the Lingquan's porcelain kilns.

For a roll of silk, they can make one for you.

The fake one will shatter if dropped.

If you don't believe me,

you can try.

It's porcelain.

Bring the person in.

Madam Wang?

This Madam Wang has

been spying on my trousseau several times.

I became wary

and prepared a fake in advance

to prevent any mishaps.

Sure enough,

she took the hairpin

while I pretended to sleep.

I had the Lord's shadow guards

keep an eye on her.

It's strange

that this Madam Wang,

who came from the palace,

has visited not only the mansion
and her own house

but also several other places.

Be careful.

For instance,

the Lian Mansion.

Don't you dare slander me.

I merely had her come once

to teach the young ladies proper etiquette.

Once?

Once,

or twice at most.

What's the problem?

If you can invite her,

why can't the Lians?

Mrs. Lian, please calm down.

I didn't say anything.

Aunt, didn't you just think

this fake hairpin was real?

The Consort Dowager cherishes the hairpin.

She keeps it stored away

and rarely takes it out.

It's understandable

that she couldn't tell at first glance.

Indeed.

I've only worn it a few times.

It's always kept in my trousseau,

too precious to use.

The owner might not recognize it,

but there's someone

who surely can.

Mr. Gu,

you've been in the pawn business for decades.

How could you not tell the difference

between porcelain and a genuine pearl?

I...

I made a mistake.

It happens.

A mistake?

Madam Wang stealing the hairpin
would've been bad enough,

but it had to happen tonight,

when all the noble ladies of Zhenzhou are here.

Someone came forward

to accuse the mansion of harboring a thief,

tarnishing my reputation.

Isn't this intentional framing?

- General Fan.
- At your service.

Interrogate Gu thoroughly for me.

Right away.

I'm innocent.

- I'm innocent.
- I did it.

That day,

I took the hairpin

to pawn it.

That's her. I remember now.

She was the one yesterday.

No doubt about it.

Madam Wang,

you taught me the rules yourself.

Over the years,

I've paid you well.

Why did you steal?

Consort Dowager,

it's all about the money.

See?

Now all the testimonies match up,

and the truth is out.

I apologize, everyone.

Today is the Madam Zhao's birthday.

It shouldn't have happened.

Mrs. Lian.

What is it now?

Shall we leave this thief

and this unobservant shopkeeper

to Lord Lian for judgment?

Good.

That would be best.

Princess,

you've been wronged.

Do you realize your mistake?

Princess,

what do you mean?

Today, you were the first

to doubt about the hairpin.

Instead of questioning the servants,

you pointed fingers at me,

insisting

there was something suspicious.

Were you trying to make our family
a laughingstock

in front of all these noble guests?

No.

I was just anxious.

The Consort Dowager has always

been careful with her words and actions,

prioritizing the honor of the family.

Even I, who only recently came here,

have taken this to heart.

You've been raised here,

yet you don't remember?

My apologies.

I was just

eager to find the real hairpin

and got carried away.

If you cannot speak properly, just be silent.

We don't need your opinions here.

Mrs. Lian.

I have a few private words

to say to Mrs. Lian.

Please wait a moment.

Just say it quickly.

Madam.

Since I've already confessed,

I won't implicate anyone else.

Thank you.

I'll ensure that Hanshan shows leniency
in your punishment.

Twenty years ago, when you asked me

whether to marry Lord Cui,

if I hadn't

critiqued his flirtatious nature

and hastily given you advice,

you might not

have exchanged the marriage certificate
with your sister's.

Your life now might

be of wealth and luxury,

rather than struggling

to maintain what you have.

You're helping me

out of guilt.

What I owed you,

I've already

repaid in full.

Farewell.

This mansion

was meant to be mine.

And if not mine,

then Binglan's.

I won't accept this fate.

(One day seems longer than months three.
One day seems long as seasons three.)

Madam,

the Consort Dowager has been ill for days

due to concerns
over Xingzhou's military matters.

Yet, you seem so calm.

Xingzhou is good at using surprise tactics

and always finds a way
out of desperate situations.

There's no need for me to worry.

I mean

you rarely attend to the Consort Dowager
at her sickbed.

I'm afraid

people will talk.

Many visitors have come

to see the ailing Consort Dowager.

Mrs. Lian

attends to her

even more diligently than I do,

fearing I might show my filial piety

and steal their good reputation.

So, I might as well

give the Consort Dowager some peace.

After practicing for so long,

it finally has some grace as Xingzhou's.

Princess,

the Consort Dowager requests your presence.

Mrs. Lian.

The children's marriages

are of utmost importance to me as well.

You may all return now.

I will ensure that everyone is satisfied.

Thank you, Consort Dowager.

Miantang, you're here.

Consort Dowager, how are you feeling?

Much better.

I was just feeling bored

and wanted someone to talk to.

Please sit.

I've been resting these past few days.

From a quick glimpse of you

in the crowd,

I could tell

you were the one

most worried about Xingzhou

besides me.

It seems

like we're the only ones in this house

who truly trust him.

Consort Dowager, please don't worry too much.

Xingzhou is very capable.

He'll surely land on my feet.

Yes.

I'm no longer worried.

I just hope he returns soon.

When the men are away,

all that's left for the women

is waiting.

When Xingzhou's father took concubines,

I wasn't exactly happy about it.

After all,

no woman wants to share her husband.

But now that he is gone,

I've come to appreciate the benefits of that.

It left me

with sisters to talk to,

so I wouldn't be that lonely.

It's easier when your husband is around,

but once his affection fades

and you're left as a widow,

you must learn to stay low-key.

The future of the children

depends entirely

on the head lady in the family.

When you become the Princess one day,

you'll understand

the power that comes with it.

A woman's beauty

doesn't last long.

Only virtue endures,

commanding respect

through the years.

You're right, Consort Dowager.

Thus,

I've never

pursued power.

My heart isn't as broad as yours,

Consort Dowager.

I only wish

for a lasting marriage with a man.
