Are You the One

[Episode 9]

[Qingzhou Inn]

Honey. After talking things out,

I feel much more at ease.

From now on, let's not hide anything
from each other.

Let's be open and honest. Alright?

I noticed you have a scar here.

How did you get it?

It's caused by...an archenemy.

An archenemy? A Go opponent?

He was a strong opponent.

But things are different now.

Honey, we've left the capital.

Let's stop dwelling on the past.

Think about the future.

Once I recover, and the porcelain business stabilizes,

let's hire a good shopkeeper.

And then we can travel by boat.

There's a broad world outside.

East, west, north, and south,

we'll go wherever we please.

By then, maybe we'll have a son and a daughter.

We can take them along

to see all the seasons' blooms.

As you ordered, all shadow guards
have entered the city in disguise,

without alarming any civilians.

My Lord.

Their lair is here. All exits are under surveillance.

There are over ten bandits inside. All of them are under our watch.

The shadow guards are ready to move
at any moment.

Tomorrow, we'll capture the
Mount Yang bandit leader.

[Cold Rain Courtyard]

Move.

Oh, no. Trespassers.

- Young Master, should we...
- No need.

Lu Wen.

It's been a while since the last battle.

Your strategy and authority
have grown even stronger, Lord Huaiyang.

You've followed me to Qingzhou

and broke into my house.
[Insights from Observing]

Once you're arrested,
everything will be handed over to the state.

You won't have a house anymore.

Let me tell you.

All three gates and your secret passage
are under my control.

You have no escape.

I advise you to surrender
to avoid unnecessary suffering.

Are you telling me that
I've reached a dead end?

After years of struggle,

can't believe I lost in the end.

What if I refuse to surrender?

Then don't blame me for being ruthless.

Charge!

Stop!

My Lord, why didn't you tell me you're coming?

I haven't had the chance
to host you in the past two days.

I feel truly ashamed.

General Shi, are you interfering
with my arrest of a wanted criminal?

How could I?

But the imperial decree must be followed.

Mount Yang's Lu Wen and his men, out of righteousness

have announced the cessation of their rampant and disturbing activities in the past.

With the Emperor's deep benevolence,

this decree is issued to pardon past offenses,

accept their surrender,
and grant them peace and order.

My Lord, Lu Wen is no longer the
leader of the Mount Yang bandits,

but a law-abiding citizen.

If you continue to cause trouble
in his courtyard for no reason,

you'll be breaking the law,
and defying the imperial court.

So, General Shi, you've made secret plans
with Lu Wen,

and are determined to protect him.

There's no need to put it so harshly.

We're just trying to relieve
the court's worries.

Let me offer you some advice. Peace is precious.

Take your men and return to Zhenzhou
to dig your canals.

Shi Yikuan!

I'm simply doing my duty.

If there's anything unclear, My Lord,

you can submit a petition to the Emperor.

Why trouble me?

I have one more thing to ask him.

Please go ahead, My Lord.

Lu Wen,

I know you became a bandit

but were unwilling to associate with traitors and rebels.

At least you're an honest man.

On the Shangsi Festival,
I sent a signal with sky lanterns.

Why did you break your promise
to cease the battle

and make a dishonorable attack on me?

You've been a military commander
for many years.

Don't you know all's fair in war?

I intended to accept you,

and you were willing to surrender.

Why didn't you do that before?

Why now are you surrendering to Qingzhou?

No matter whom I surrender to,
it's still to the court.

Why cling to past grievances?

I only hope the feud between you and Mount Yang

ends here.

Farewell, Lord Huaiyang.

One more thing.

Someone I love has settled in Zhenzhou.

She's now an ordinary woman,

no longer connected to Mount Yang.

If you ever find her, please show mercy,

and spare the innocent.

- Tea, please.
- Okay.

Madam.

I was thinking this rain
came at just the right time.

Shopkeeper, our master
bought an expensive painting.

We're worried about it getting damp.

Can we hang it here?

Sure, no problem. No problem.

Whose work is it?

Mr. Hate Brush.
- Mr. Hate Brush?

Look closely. The dragonfly's eyes
seem to have something.

Indeed.

Who would've thought a masterpiece
would be in such a small place?

- Indeed.
- Truly.

May I ask if your master
would sell this painting to me?

The painting by Mr. Hate Brush
is a treasure to my master.

It's not for sale.

Isn't that a pity?

If it's not for sale, why hang it here?

The painting isn't for sale,
but the porcelain is.

Come take a look.

Yes, yes. Exactly the same.

Madam, I've collected the 18 taels of gold
from the sale.

A distinguished guest paid a deposit.

He plans to pick up the goods later
in Zhenzhou.

It seems our Yushao Porcelain Shop
has made quite a name in Qingzhou.

- Moru.
- Madam.

Why are you alone?
Where is my husband?

Madam, you must be tired.
I'll ask someone to prepare a meal.

Wait. Where's my husband?

He's in the backyard.

The master lost a game today.

He said he wanted to be alone.

What's this about?

Well, rain is not a good thing.

It makes us feel melancholic.

So, I have to accompany you.

When you're troubled,
seeing me makes you happy again.

You rarely smile at me.

How could that be?

Even when you do smile,
it always feels elusive.

The lost game reveals your true self.

Lost game?

Moru told me.

You don't need to feel embarrassed.

To others, Go is trivial.

But it matters a lot to you.

Its significance is different.

So, from now on, whether it's raining
or losing a game of Go,

I will always be with you.

Dear. This time, I'm afraid it's not just about
losing a game.

Do you remember the archenemy I mentioned?

You met him?

Today's game was against him.

Three years ago, I played against him.

I lost that time.

It was my first defeat in life.

Strangely, I didn't feel sorrowful.

Instead, I felt a kind of joy in
meeting a worthy opponent.

Since then, I've played against him
several times.

We're almost even.

Each game is a battle of wits and courage,
thrilling and intense.

Rather than seeing him as an arch enemy,

I consider him a close friend.

I enjoy each game against him.

As long as he's my rival,
the result doesn't matter.

Until that time.

In short, I wanted to settle the score
with him.

To win,

I stayed up all night and used all means,

even at the cost of harming some people.

And then?

Then, we had a showdown today.

Today, I set a trap in the game,

encircling him layer by layer.

His pieces have no room to move.

The final move is in my hands.

But unexpectedly, at this moment,

he suddenly stood up,

threw his pieces away, and left,

leaving me with an unfinished game.

What a jerk.

How is this different from retraction?

Such a lousy player deserves to lose forever.

Honey, don't be angry with him.

Honey, you don't actually care
about this game at all, do you?

You see him as an opponent and a close friend,

thinking about him day and night.

In your heart, you've developed
different feelings for him

and projected your imagination onto him.

But now, this person is not the same as before.

This arch enemy is not what you thought he was.

So, all your feelings and illusions
have shattered.

Meeting a worthy opponent
was merely your wishful thinking.

Honey,

I understand why you're upset.

You're wise.

But I don't know how to comfort you.

You've already cheered me up.

I have another question for you.

Go ahead.

Though the game is over,

the last piece is still in my hand.

I don't know what to do with it.

Honey, that question is strange.

The opponent has run away.
Why keep the piece?

It's late and the dew is heavy.

Go and change your clothes.

Throw away the useless piece,
and be done with it.

Are your men all settled?

Thanks for asking, General.

They're settled.

Lord Huaiyang disregarded the
court's orders, and attacked you privately.

I will report this to the Empress Dowager,
and give you an explanation.

We believe in the integrity of General Shi

and will not change our allegiance
due to Lord Huaiyang's actions.

You are a sensible person.

From now on, we are all in the same boat,

without distinction
between the court and Mount Yang.

I will restrain my subordinates, eliminate
mountain bandit habits, and reform,

to alleviate the court's worries.

To alleviate the court's worries?

Yes.

Since it has come to this,
there is something you need to handle.

The money has been collected.

The madam says the reputation is made.

Today, we need to continue the business.

Understood.

Please forgive me for speaking out of turn.

Since Lu Wen has been pacified,

what about the madam?

Today, I will tell her the truth
and send her away.

Do you mean to return her to Lu Wen?

My Lord. The madam was a pure lady.

She was abducted, lost her chastity, had her
tendons severed, and discarded in the water.

You can't let her return to
such a den of wolves.

If you let her choose,
she would not want to go back.

She is devoted to you wholeheartedly.

If she learns the truth,
how heartbroken she will be.

Nanny Li.

Sorry, I overstepped.

Honey.

You're awake.

I want a cup of tea.

Why are you up so early today?

Are you having a Go game?

I heard from Nanny Li that your porcelain
sold well yesterday.

I don't feel like playing now.

I'll join you today.

All along the way, you've been with me.

Now that the shop's business is open,
its reputation spread,

let me properly accompany you today.

Dear, what do you mean?

I see that you are troubled.

It must be related to the game.

Since the piece makes you unhappy,
let's just throw it away.

♫ Flowers falling by the river again ♫

In this world, what lasting match
between equals is there?

It's rare to have a fierce battle,
and then leave gracefully.

And wait for the next match.

Cui Jiu. Today, your opponent is me.

Can you beat me?

♫ Dreams ended in the courtyard with dew;
Hairpin facing the moon ♫

♫ Holding your hand to pick flowers ♫

♫ Witnessed by shy birds, the boat
kisses the willow, planning for the future ♫

♫ A smile brings another perfect year ♫

♫ If one day the river breeze blows again ♫

♫ I won't be a mere reflection in the mirror ♫

♫ Dreams can shatter; Memories remain ♫

♫ Rich fragrance aids; Light ink writes ♫

♫ In the deep red windows lies mundane dust ♫

Honey, your smile is beautiful.

Have you finished it?

The Go skills align with the heavens and earth.

You and I truly had a game here in this world.

But indeed, the game was a bit chaotic.

After all, I can't beat you.

Since we're placing pieces in this world,
you needn't be so fixated on winning.

It's not in a closed room where you
can only see the rival

and think only about who can leave
with a smile.

Let's just watch this vast world together,
see the changes in the clouds,

observe the changes in weather,
and enjoy the life circle.

That's a fortune too.

Why care about anything else?

You seem to have found a way to comfort me.

Indeed, being with you is a fortune.

Why care about other things?

It's because you are wise.

You don't need my comfort.

Miantang.

Why are you so good to me?

Because you are my husband.

But you've lost your memory.

You have to believe whatever I say.

Aren't you afraid that I may have deceived you,

hurt you, or made you
waste your true feelings before?

I believe every choice I make.

If I had chosen someone, believed in him,

and entrusted my whole life to him,

he would surely give me the best response.

Are you feeling better now?

Much better.

Let's go home tomorrow.

Tomorrow?

I miss home.

Alright then.

Let's put everything down today.

Rest well.

We'll go home early tomorrow.

Our home.

Going back to our home.

Our little home.

There's something you need to do.

The biggest concern for the court now
is Lord Huaiyang,

Cui Xingzhou.

This time, he came in disguise.

When he returns, I want you to bring people
to ambush him and kill him.

Don't leave any trace.

Young Master, at dawn, they left the city.

Pursue them.

Young Master, what is this?

A deadlock between the black and white sides.

In the end, it became a meaningless draw.

Did Lord Huaiyang leave this behind?

Change the route.

Return to Qingzhou.

I let Lord Huaiyang escape,
which has disappointed you.

Please punish me.

Cui Xingzhou's actions were strange.

He didn't use the main road but fled.

It is quite reasonable.

It is my fault for not warning in time.

If you want, I'm willing to bring people
to Zhenzhou to make up for the mistake.

Zhenzhou is the Cui family's territory.

If we go there, it would be like
seeking trouble.

Look, don't be anxious.

Return, and prepare well...

for your future wedding.

Yes.

Ladies, the time has come.

Classes are over.

Miss Shi.

The teacher praised your copy of
"Lessons for Women".

You are engaged.
The wedding is coming soon.

So you should focus on needlework.

There's no need to study here anymore.

I understand.

- Ladies.
- Alright.

The Gold Jewelry has sent
the latest accessories.

The madam asks you to choose for yourselves.

- Girls, come here.
- Let's go choose too.

Let's go.

This one looks good.

This one is prettier.
- Mine is prettier.

- Mine.
- Mine.

Give it to me.

Xueji is about to marry.

Let her choose first.

Give it to me.

Why not choose?

Don't you like them?

Sister...
- Sister, don't forget.

Xueji is marrying the leader
of Mount Yang whom Father pacified.

It's a good match.

Xueji has suffered enough.

It is rumored that the leader isn't very cruel.

Though he was once a bandit leader,
such people are usually affectionate.

Don't talk nonsense.

This one is exquisite. I like it.

Such a small ring. Can you wear it?

Sister, look. It fits perfectly.

This ring is very similar
to the one my mother used to wear.

Will you let me have it?

I hope you don't mind.

Sister.

This one.

This one suits you.

Daughters.

- Let's go.
- Go.

- Father.
- Father.

- You're finally back, Father.
- My dear daughters.

My dear babies.

The western tribes are rioting.

They attack surprisingly.
[Easily Well-Governed]

General Pei led the troops to resist.

He exhausted himself and died.

Also, scouts sent secret reports. They're having civil unrest
with the clan leader.

That's enough.

So much nonsense.

Empress Dowager.

Qingzhou reports that the bandits
have been pacified.

How to handle Lord Huaiyang
awaits your instructions.

No rush.

I already have a plan
for Cui Xingzhou's matter.

[Mansion of Lord Huaiyang]

They say the garden here
can rival that of the capital.

Today's visit confirms the reputation.

Since we're all family,
there's no need for formalities.

I envy you.

Your son is successful and causes less worry.

Unlike my Quan, always joking around.

A dignified lord today studies medicine, tomorrow studies opera,

and now, he is obsessed with painting.

By the way, Binglan and Xingzhou are about to marry.

Why hasn't Lord Zhennan made a move?

Mother.

Don't mention it.

Princess Lin'an canceled the engagement.

It changed his temperament.

He spends all day wandering around.

I don't want to intervene. Not to mention remarrying.

Aunt, don't worry too much.

Cousin Quan and Cousin Xingzhou are so close.

They influence each other on many things.

Once my mourning period is over, and I marry Cousin Xingzhou,

Cousin Quan will naturally settle down.

Our Xingzhou will not act recklessly.

We can rest assured.

I heard Mount Yang has been pacified.

Then Xingzhou is bound to be promoted again, right?

Who knows?

The epiphyllum blooms late.

Mrs. Zhao, Aunt, you have come too early.

Cousin Xingzhou.

You arrived just in time. We were just talking about you.

Sister. We'll watch the epiphyllum with you.

Yes. We older ones talk.

The young ones don't like to listen.

I see the laurel is blooming nicely.

You should walk in the garden with your cousin.

Here.

Cousin Xingzhou, I wrote a poem these past few days,

but I haven't found a rhyme.

I wonder if you have time to help me polish it.

You're talented.

You're much better.

Everyone knows that if it weren't for the late Emperor canceling the exams,

you would've been the top scholar.

Cousin Binglan, I have something to say.

Please go ahead.

You know what happened in Lingquan Town.

I have my own plans for that woman.

You don't need to tell me.

I know you're a thoughtful person.

Since you already have a plan, just make your own decision.

I just...

want to be a good wife and relieve your worries.

It's my duty not to interfere with your decisions.

Say it again.

Are you hard of hearing? You keep saying this.

You keep scaring me.

Lu Wen has been pacified, so I must arrange her future well.

So you're arranging for Liu to marry another man?

That's not what I meant.

I have a matchmaker find a suitable family for her.

Her background is complicated and she has no support.

She thinks I can arrange her future well,

then I will help her with that.

I can do that.

You can't.

Why can't I?

Is it my appearance, my character, my family background, or my virtues?

Don't use official matters to brush me off.

You've said Lu Wen's matter is settled.

You're not good enough.

You...You're nobly born.

If she marries you, how will she face those acquaintances here?

How about her shop?

I need to ensure she lives a stable and carefree life.

Why did you hum?

It's nothing.

I just feel that the once cold-hearted Lord Huaiyang

now has a bit of humanity.

My Lord, according to your instructions,

I have used my niece's name to find some candidates through a matchmaker.

This is a widower.

He couldn't cure his wife's illness. No.

[20 years old, widower]

This...

A 30-year-old scholar?

[Scholar, 30 years old]

- My Lord, she's trying to remarry...

She hasn't been married before.

She is not inferior to other noble ladies.

Let her review the others herself.

I also want to see.

Yes.

I want to see what kind of man she can find.

More suitable than you.

I'm the most suitable in the world.

I didn't expect Lord Huaiyang to have this day.

Honey, what are you doing here?

We finished the Go lesson early. So, I came here.

You came just in time.

We've got some fine porcelain. Look.

This porcelain plate looks ordinary, but its body is excellent.

Its glaze is very delicate, and it sounds clear.

Such fine porcelain.

I wonder who will buy it.

Many customers are vying for it.

I can pick the customer.

Honey, you rest first.

Please come in.

I'll take a look at the porcelain.

You've come at the right time. These are our new arrivals today.

See which one you like. It's white jade porcelain.

Good.

It's not for sale.

Honey, what are you doing?

This man is big and burly.

He doesn't deserve our porcelain.

The customer's preference matters. It's not our choice.

Didn't you say we can choose our customers?

We can't do business like this.

Stop talking. Or I'll really get angry.

Sir, do you want some porcelain?

Hello, ma'am.

I just came to take a look.

These are our new arrivals today. Look at this.

This...

Is this white jade porcelain?

You have a good eye.

You must be an expert.

When I was young and poor,

I used to make porcelain with my mother to trade for books.

The crafts here are much better.

You worked hard on your own and had a good mother.

Lessons for Women recorded various virtues,

but only women like my mother and you are truly praiseworthy.

Dear.
- You..

Don't hold the plate too long.

It might tire your arm.

- Who is this?
- I'm her husband.

- Sir, this porcelain...

Ma'am, if you're uninterested, why bother teasing me?

What's he talking about?

Who's teasing him?

Don't move.
