I saw it myself that day.
Prince Yongqi, Erkang, and Ertai were all at the Shu Fang Zhai Palace.
A room full of men and ladies with no sense of discretion.
I heard they also party late into the night in the palace
with the mistress and the servants all ending up drunk.
- Xiao Luzi! - Yes, Your Majesty.
Light up the lantern but don't alert anyone.
- I'm going to the Shu Fang Zhai Palace. - Yes, Your Majesty.
Would Your Majesty like a few more guards to come along?
- Shall I call for Consort Ling? - No, I'll go alone.
Don't even announce our arrival when we get there, understand?
Yes, Your Majesty.
[Shu Fang Zhai Palace]
Your Highness, everybody has gone to bed.
You should, too. I'll stay here with her.
I'm not sleepy as I enjoy her singing.
♫ The mountains are in the distance, the lakes are faraway ♫
♫ Unreachable they are, as is this winding road ♫
♫ I stayed hopeful throughout the night and I felt hope in the morning, too ♫
♫ I keep waiting but my soul is falling into despair ♫
♫ My dreams are uncertain, as is my future ♫
♫ The heavens would tire if they could sympathize ♫
♫ Songs and melodies resonate to me no more ♫
♫ The wind and rain howl to the depths of my despair ♫
♫ Depths of my despair ♫
Who the heck is that? Come out now!
Why did you sigh outside my room at midnight?
I didn't catch you last time but I certainly won't let you go this time!
Show yourself!
Which clan are you from? Tell me your name!
How dare you provoke me? You're so dead!
Does the emperor have to tell you his name, too?
Royal Father, why have you come?
So, do you know clearly who the heck I am now?
Royal Father, why did you arrive quietly without notifying us?
Why didn't you tell Xiao Luzi to inform us?
You gave me a real scare standing at the window.
When will you learn to control your temper?
How dare you ask who the heck I am?
Luckily, you're neither a man nor a ghost.
What do you mean, "not a man nor a ghost?" What am I then?
You must be a God!
Stop sweet-talking!
Greetings from Ziwei to Your Majesty.
Greetings from Jinsuo to Your Majesty.
- Heavenly blessings to Your Majesty. - Long live Your Majesty for tens of thousands years.
All rise then.
Thank you, Your Majesty.
Where are Xiao Dengzi and the others?
I told them to go to sleep since it's already late.
- Do you want them here, Your Majesty? - Never mind!
Was it you who was singing while playing the zither?
Yes, Your Majesty.
You have good playing skills and a great voice.
Will you sing again for me?
At your command, Your Majesty.
However, please have some tea first, Your Majesty.
Sure!
Your Majesty, this is Biluochun from West Lake. (TN: Famous green tea)
I heard Biluochun was your favorite tea during your inspection tour in the south.
Since we have this in the Shu Fang Zhai Palace,
I kept it for you.
The mature leaves have already been removed.
Only the youngest part was kept.
Please try it, Your Majesty.
Good tea!
♫ The mountains are in the distance, the lakes are faraway ♫

♫ I stayed hopeful throughout the night and I felt hope in the morning too ♫
♫ I keep waiting but my soul is falling into despair ♫

This voice...
This person...
I feel like I've experienced this before.
This scene feels so familiar and heartwarming.
Please forgive my bad performance.
Who taught you to sing and play the zither?
It's my mother who taught me.
I mean, your humble servant's mother.
No wonder Xiao Yanz always insists on being casual.
Hearing "humble servant this and that" is indeed awkward.
There's no one else here, so just answer me casually.
Skip the formalities!
Yes, Your Majesty.
Where's your mother now?
Why did she send you to work here?
Your Majesty, my mother has passed away.
Who wrote the lyrics?
It was also my mother.
Your mother was a talented lady
but the lyrics are too sad.
She wrote it out of her yearning for my father.
What happened to your father?
My father...
My father left my mother
to pursue his future many years ago.
We didn't hear from him since.
I see!
I didn't hear some parts of the lyrics clearly.
What did it say?
Why don't I write it down for you?
Oh right! You even have good handwriting, too.
- Write it down for me to see. - I'll get the paper.
What a pitiful girl you are!
Your father is a lucky man to have your mother missing him like this.
What happened then? Did he return?
No.
My mother didn't live to see him return.
What a pity!
That's why there's a poem that goes, "When she sees the green willows in the spring,
she regrets sending him to pursue a duke's rank."
Young couples could never survive the long distance relationship.
If they hadn't parted so easily,
she wouldn't have had to wait for him her whole life.
You're right, Your Majesty.
It was just that they had no choice but to separate from each other.
As they didn't know that
it would end up being a lifetime of separation.
Before she died, my mother said something that
I will never forget.
However, Your Majesty probably won't be interested in hearing about this.
No, I'm very interested. Do tell!
My mother said that
even after a whole life of waiting, hating,
yearning, and blaming,
she still thanks God
for giving her someone to wait, hate, yearn for and blame.
Otherwise, her life would've been
as dull as a dry well.
Her love must be deep for her to say such words.
Even me, I'm truly moved by your mother's unregretful love.
Your father still let a good woman down.
Royal Father, don't you think that woman was too silly?
Does she deserve sympathy? Her story makes me angry.
She even thanked God after a lifetime of waiting!
Then, the pain she felt served her right.
A woman's life is really too pitiful and unpromising.
All she did was wait and wait, instead of fighting for her own happiness.
- I understand. - That reminds you of your mother, doesn't it?
Although you and Ziwei are in different situations now,
you have a similar past.
However, a man has his own difficulties.
You can't constrain an ambitious man.
Hence, a man may fall in love easily but it's difficult for him to maintain.
He may not stay in love forever.
This is what you won't understand.
Well, I've gotten carried away.
It has been ages since I had a nice chat.
I'm glad I could have a heart-to-heart talk with both of you.
Ziwei, you're too talented to be a maidservant.
Royal Father, why not take her as your adopted daughter, too?
Do you think it's that simple?
Why do you always speak recklessly?
Your Majesty, Her Highness didn't mean it.
Don't get it wrong!
I'm happy to serve by Her Highness' side as her maid.
Royal Father, according to Confucius,
we should treat others like we would our own family and children.
Why don't you make all the girls who also had the same experience as me, princesses?
You even know the saying, "We should treat others like we would our own family and children?"
Royal Father, I've written it 100 times already!
It looks like it works. Do it with other phrases, too!
Royal Father, please spare me!
Your Majesty, you must be hungry.
I'll ask Jinsuo to prepare some porridge for you.
Let us know what you like to eat.
- She knows how to make some side dishes, too. - Is it so?
I do feel hungry now that you mention it.
I didn't feel hungry before Royal Father said it,
but now that Royal Father did, I'm hungry, too.
Okay, I'll get the food ready now.
Let's go!
I haven't eaten like this in a long time.
The dishes do smell good.
How did you make such a tasty tofu salad?
Thank you, Your Majesty.
I should be the one thanking you for preparing these dishes for me.
Please don't, Your Majesty.
Ziwei, Xiao Yanzi tells me you can do anything from the zither, playing chess, reading, to painting.
Your Majesty, you do know that she's always exaggerating.
Am I exaggerating?
Royal Father, you've also heard her playing the zither and seen her writing.
However, I haven't tested her skills in chess.
Your Majesty, it's already past midnight.
So what if it's past midnight? Don't spoil my mood. Wait outside!
Yes, Your Majesty.
[The virtues of Heaven are the motivational roots for everything]
Your Majesty won by half a point.
I don't believe it.
Only half a point?
One more game! Again, again!
Your Majesty, you've won by 1.5 points this time.
Ziwei, you've finally met your match, haven't you?
You've lost four out of four times in a row.
In the future, I'm not going to boast that you're good at chess anymore.
If I remove "chess" from all your artistic skills,
you'll only be good at music, singing, calligraphy, and painting.
You're right! I'm not very skilled at this.
My mother always told me, "You can practice how to write, but chess requires talent."
You can't master it if you don't have the talent, no matter how much you practice.
Don't you feel tired after all these rounds of the game?
Playing with Your Majesty isn't tiring at all.
How could that be?
You have to play the game while thinking of ways to let me win.
Isn't multitasking like this exhausting?
I can't help but wonder.
I don't wonder about why you lost intentionally,
but about the way
you faked your losses so perfectly,
and without losing too much.
Your Majesty, I did no such thing.
You're just too great at this game.
You were testing how good I am and intentionally making bad moves sometimes.
I was so muddled and confused.
How could I have time to strategize how much to lose by?
I was trying so hard not to lose too brutally.
It looks like neither of us was paying full attention to the game.
I order you to try your best this time.
Don't lose intentionally! Do you hear me?
Yes, Your Majesty.
What?
What do you mean you can't find His Majesty?
Who was serving His Majesty last night?
Your Highness, no one served His Majesty last night.
His Majesty went out with Xiao Luzi and forbade anyone to follow.
They were away for the whole night.
Did His Majesty leave the palace as a commoner?
I've already asked the guards at the gate and the night guards.
They all said he didn't.
What about the other concubines?
And Her Majesty?
His Majesty wasn't with the other concubines.
I didn't dare to alert Her Majesty yet.
Isn't that so strange?
Did he not eat breakfast yet?
Respect to Your Highness, he even didn't have any breakfast.
Right now, it's already time for His Majesty to hold the morning court.
Lamei, Dongxue, take along the court outfit.
Let's go to take a look at the Shu Fang Zhai Palace.
Yes, Your Highness.
You won!
Good, good! Good job!
I've finally met someone who dares to defeat me.
Did your mother teach you how to play this, too?
My mother knew only a little but I had a teacher, Master Gu, who taught me for a few years.
My mother trained me like a son.
It is part of life's joy to meet a match.
Ziwei, I'll play with you again.
I'm so tired!
Respects to Your Majesty!
What time is it now?
Your Majesty, it's already dawn.
Your Majesty, you mustn't delay the morning court.
Jinsuo, get some water here!
Xiao Dengzi, Xiao Zhuozi, bring His Majesty's court outfit from his chamber now.
Mingyue, Caixia, bring the mouthwash.
At your command!
Respects to Consort Ling!
Why are you in such a panic?
Greetings to Your Majesty.
Greetings to Consort Ling.
Your Majesty, you've frightened me.
Why didn't you tell us that you came to the Shu Fang Zhai Palace?
The servants have searched almost every corner of the palace.
My bad!
I was too indulged in playing chess with Ziwei.
Before I knew it, it was already dawn.
- Where's my court outfit? - Lamei!
[Shu Fang Zhai Palace]
Farewell to Your Majesty!
Goodbye, Royal Father.
Farewell, Your Majesty.
His Majesty stayed at the Shu Fang Zhai Palace all night?
- Is that true? - It's absolutely true.
Absolutely true.
Your humble maidservant has stationed people to watch the Shu Fang Zhai Palace, day and night.
His Majesty went alone with Xiao Luzi and stayed there all night.
They were cheerfully singing and laughing.
Consort Ling even went there this morning with His Majesty's morning court.
His Majesty went to the morning court right away after he changed.
What made him stay there all night?
Now, I get it.
I thought at the time that Consort Ling granting two maidservants to serve Xiao Yanzi
was so strange.
How does she need so many servants?
However, they aren't there for her sake.
They're there to serve His Majesty.
However, this doesn't really make sense.
Why would Consort Ling
give the young girls a chance to get in her way?
And if she wanted to do that, why would she let the girls stay with Xiao Yanzi
instead of staying with her?
You're right!
Going around in circles like this makes no sense.
I'm so confused.
But what I can be sure of is that, something fishy is really going on.
Ziwei has beautiful facial features and mesmerizing eyes.
She has an evil aura.
She doesn't act like a maid at all.
No matter where she stays,
I'm sure that she must be a scourge.
Ziwei, let's go to Prince Yongqi's palace.
I'm the closest with him out of all the siblings.
But do you know what's weird?
Every time I visit Prince Yongqi, I'm always followed by random people.
Look! There's one guy now.
Who told you to spy on me? Say it!
Spare me, Your Highness! No one ordered your humble servant to follow you.
I was merely passing the garden to get to the Palace of Great Benevolence.
Are you going to tell me or not?
Calm down, Your Highness.
Have you already forgotten that you made a guard spit out blood last time?
You have strong feet so be careful not to kill him.
I still don't care.
I'll step on him until he dies if he won't tell me.
I'm innocent! Please spare me, You Highness.
- I'm innocent! - I'm not lifting this foot.
Tell me or else I'll trample you to death.
It was Nanny Rong. Nanny Rong!
Help me, Nanny Rong!
Stand still, Nanny Rong!
Don't you know the rules in the palace?
Your maidservant doesn't understand what you're saying, Prince Yongqi.
What do I mean?
Who has more power? You or the princess?
It's Her Highness, of course.
Insolent! How dare you not address yourself as a maidservant. Are you rebellious?
Jinsuo, teach her a lesson!
Your Highness...
Jinsuo, you don't know how to do it, do you?
Just slap her the way she did to you last time.
You Highness, your humble servant dare not.
Mingyue, go and teach her a lesson!
I...
You Highness, your humble servant dare not.
How useless! None of you dares to punish her?
I'll do it myself, then!
You...
This slap is to repay for the slap you gave me last time.
I've returned it to you without giving you extra pain.
Now, let's settle
what you owe Ziwei and Jinsuo.
Calm down, Your Highness!
Nanny Rong serves Her Majesty and she has been serving here for a long time.
Please show mercy, Your Highness.
Saiwei, you're a skilled fighter.
I've always regarded you as a true warrior.
But why do you always do bad things and oppose me?
Your humble servant dare not.
Your humble servant is but a servant who has a master.
I have to follow my master's orders.
If I am disloyal to my master so I am not a true warrior.
What is a servant?
You're totally confusing me.
However, you seem to have your principles.
So, you're not stepping away, are you?
Please calm down, Your Highness!
I'm slapping Nanny Rong today, no matter what.
If you're not going to step aside, then just come at me.
Trying to be loyal, you say? Fight me then!
Saiwei!
If you lay a finger on her, it'll be insubordination.
That's an unforgivable crime! You better think wisely.
How many lives do you think you have?
How dare a servant stop the princess!
- Are you rebelling, too? - Don't be upset, Your Highness!
Your humble maidservant repents for her mistakes.
Your Highness.
Please be gracious!
Let Nanny Rong off this time.
As this warrior just said, Nanny Rong works for her master.
She's just following her master's orders.
As a maidservant, she doesn't have much choice.
Nanny Rong may be a servant but she's also considered a senior after working so many years here.
Didn't you say we should love others like our own family?
Please have mercy on her.
Ziwei, how could you defend her?
Have you already forgotten how she slapped you until your face so swelled up?
This is a chance to get revenge! Don't you want it?
Your Highness, I'd rather not have my revenge.
Then, what about Jinsuo?
Your Highness, I agree with Ziwei.
If she doesn't want revenge, I don't need it, either.
My servants are all so useless
You only know how to be compassionate but not to be protective of yourselves.
Prince Yongqi, what do you think?
Nanny Rong, Princess Pearl and I will let you off today.
But that's not because of Saiwei getting in the way.
Saiwei is a good fighter but he can't lay his hand on us.
I'm sure you know that.
We let you off because you'd be embarrassed
if you get beaten at this age and seniority.
Seeing that you've worked here for 40 years, we'll let you off.
But think about it yourself.
Who do you think you are
to go against me and the princess?
We've respected you and your dignity, but what about you?
Thank you for your grace, Prince Yongqi.
Thank you for your grace, Princess Pearl.
Your humble maidservant shall always carry your advice.
Your humble maidservant was wrong.
Kneel down!
Nanny Rong,
don't think you'll always have protection so you'll always be able to get away.
You've also seen it. Don't push your luck!
Since Prince Yongqi, Ziwei, and Jinsuo said to let you go,
I'll just let you off as they say.
I'm telling you clearly now.
I'll be going to Prince Yongqi's place.
So, stop tailing me anymore!
Tell your master that
all of us from the Shu Fang Zhai Palace are visiting Prince Yongqi.
Her Majesty is welcome to join us when she's free.
But stop being so sneaky!
Ziwei, let's go!
Erkang, Ertai!
Where have you been? You kept us waiting.
We ran into Nanny Rong just now.
Prince Yongqi and I just taught her a lesson.
I've finally gotten half of my revenge done.
What do you mean by "gotten half of your revenge done?"
Originally, I could've given her a full dressing-down
and slapped her all I wanted in front of the eunuchs and maids.
Then I'd be able to vent my anger and have my revenge.
However, Ziwei stopped me,
and Prince Yongqi also said to save her from shame since she's a senior.
That's why I showed her mercy and only had half of my revenge.
You had a conflict with Nanny Rong again?
- Why didn't you just bear with it? - I can't put up with her anymore.
I also agree with Xiao Yanzi.
We should show her once and for all what we're capable of.
If both a prince and a princess can't even teach an old servant a lesson.
- How ridiculous! - Now that you've caused such a scene,
Her Majesty will come to cause trouble again.
Would we still have an opportunity to talk then?
That's why, the two of you should hurry up to say what you want.
We'll guard at the door.
If you hear us cough, that means someone's coming.
Prince Yongqi and Ertai, let's leave them alone.
Why don't we do this? Let's chat amiably together.
Then how will you share your secrets with him then?
I don't have any secrets to tell him.
Then, how will Erkang tell you his secrets?
Who says...
he has any secrets?
Neither of you want to talk?
How strange!
I'll stay here then.
Don't regret it later on!
Enough, enough! Xiao Yanzi, stop wasting their time.
Let's go!
- Fine! - Come on.
Remember that I let you off this time.
Sure!
I already heard all about it.
His Majesty played Go with you all through the night.
You never told me that you knew how to play Go.
What else do I not know about you?
There's really so much more to you than meets the eye.
I finally understand why my mother spent her whole life waiting for him,
and why she had wanted me to meet him before she passed away.
He's so profound, tolerant, and poised.
I admire him so.
Knowing that he's my father makes me so happy.
When he asked about my mother several times,
I was so excited that even my voice trembled.
If it weren't for Xiao Yanzi's sake,
I really want to tell him everything!
I did know that you're meant to shine brightly,
but I never expected you to blend into the role this fast.
I'm happy as well as worried.
I'm very happy that you're doing so well,
but I'm also worried as the palace is filled with dangers.
I'm afraid that His Majesty's liking for you will end up being another danger for you.
- Ziwei, you really must be careful. - I got it.
Don't worry! I'll do my best to protect myself and Xiao Yanzi.
You must be careful when you're facing His Majesty, too.
You should not be hasty in any circumstance.
Only when he likes you as much as he likes Xiao Yanzi,
can you tell him the truth.
I understand. Of course, I do!
Unless I'm certain about it, only then I'll let him know.
Or maybe I should just keep it from him,
and let him guess and make his own judgment.
Did you miss me?
Not at all!
Then are there any secrets
that you wish to tell me?
There's one!
What is it?
I was lying
when I said "not at all."
I've been wanting to do something.
I hope that you can help.
What's that?
I probably won't be able to return to Liu Qing and Liu Hong's place for now.
After they hid me at the hut, you all found me
and brought me straight to the palace.
I've been feeling bad about the two siblings.
I should at least let them know what happened.
Could you pay them a visit?
And please occasionally take care of the people at the compound house.
Okay, I know what to do.
This is what Xiao Yanzi and Ziwei asked me to hand you.
There are 50 ingots inside.
They can't look out for everyone for the moment.
They hope that you and Liu Hong can move to a new place with everybody.
Are you telling me to disperse the 20 people at the compound house?
That's right!
Find a place for the elders to live peacefully.
Find a comfortable home for the children.
If you can't find one, just build one with this money.
However, you have to leave the compound house.
In fact, do it as soon as possible,
and as far as possible.
Let's talk elsewhere!
Are you planning to tell me what's going on with Xiao Yanzi and Ziwei?
No, I'm not going to tell you.
It's also better for you to know less.
There's only one thing I can tell.
Xiao Yanzi has already brought Ziwei into the palace as well.
The two girls from the compound house entered the palace.
It'll catch the attention of others one day.
I am requesting you to leave for everybody's safety.
Well, let me tell you what's going on.
The fake princess is in the palace, while the real one was in your manor.
But now, you're sending Ziwei to the palace
to make her into another princess.
Who told you this?
Xiao Yanzi lived at the compound house for five years.
I know everything about her.
As for Ziwei, all she wanted to do
was to find her father since she came here.
She was always whispering with Xiao Yanzi.
So of course, I learned something from it.
Xiao Yanzi and Ziwei went to break into the hunting grounds,
Xiao Yanzi became a princess,
and Ziwei ran after the parade madly.
Then, she remained at your residence and didn't come back.
After all that has happened,
I'd be too stupid if I still couldn't figure this out.
Ziwei told me that you're a hero who she could turn to if she runs into any troubles.
Xiao Yanzi even wanted to bring you and your sister into the palace as imperial guards.
I think they're right
for thinking so highly of you.
Really? Did Ziwei say that?
Yes. Since you've figured it out, I'll be frank.
What happened to Xiao Yanzi and Ziwei was a mistake.
Ziwei is the real Princess Pearl.
We sent her into the palace with a sliver of hope
for the truth to come to light without hurting Xiao Yanzi,
and at the same time, allowing Ziwei to reunite with her father and take back her identity.
I always knew that she was no simple girl.
No wonder! So it turns out she's actually a princess.
I hope that you'll keep this secret sealed.
- Who do you think I am? A gossiper? - Certainly not!
I owe you my deepest gratitude.
Thank you for helping Ziwei last time.
I did that for Ziwei, not for you.
If you lose her again, I'd still do the same.
If that time comes, I'll hide her somewhere where you'll never find her again.
I understand.
Are you interested in becoming a guard or an official?
- I can arrange it. - No, thanks.
I love living as a free man and can't stand being restrained.
Moreover, I'm in charge of more than 20 people's lives right now.
I won't lock myself in that big prison
like that silly Xiao Yanzi.
You'll keep Ziwei safe, won't you?
I'll protect her with my life.
Good!
Then I'll keep everybody at the compound house safe.
Don't worry! You won't see them again in ten days' time.
No one will spill out any more secrets.
Ziwei said you're a warrior
but I think you're a true hero.
I think this is so unnecessary.
- Will it really come in handy? - Yes, it will.
Let me tell you! When we're done with it,
we'll fix one on each of our knees.
It took me a very long time to come up with this idea.
Since we have to kneel all the time, we must protect our knees.
I just don't get it.
Why does someone as wise as Royal Father, always want others to kneel before him?
However, wouldn't tying something so thick on our knees
make it very difficult to walk?
Your Highness, do you want to try it first?
Sure!
How does it feel? Try to move your knees!
If it's too thick, I'll make it thinner.
It's feel so great!
It doesn't affect my movement at all.
It's like kneeling on two pieces of cotton. It's so comfortable!
What a brilliant idea!
I'll name it.
I'll call it "Easy-kneeling!"
Make one for everyone in the Shu Fang Zhai Palace!
Hurry up to finish them. I'm going to give them as gifts.
Yongqi, Erkang, Ertai, Xiao Guizi, Xiao Shunzi, Lamei, Dongxue.
Everyone needs one.
Think about it! We have to kneel anytime on a stone-paved road.
My knees got bruised so many times because of that.
You better not give it to them! Prince Yongqi and the rest will break into fits of laughter if they receive this.
You want them to use these?
I don't think any of them are willing to wear this.
Why? It's so useful so why not?
Moreover, I'm going to make an "Easy-beating" later on.
Then, we'll never have to worry about getting beaten again.
The "Easy-kneeling" can be fixed on the knees,
but how would you use the "Easy-beating"?
You're right!
This might be a problem.
Why don't you just wear cotton trousers from now on, Your Highness?
Then it's still not good. If you wear cotton trousers in hot weather,
it wouldn't be "Easy-beating" but more like an "Easy-heat-stroke".
Respects to Your Highness.
Your Highness, His Majesty wants you at the study now.
Oh, no! I'm doomed. Royal Father probably wants to lecture me
with all that "Great Harmony" or whatnot again.
It looks like the thing I really need to invent is an "Easy-writing".
