EPISODE 24

Who are you?

Why did you use your power to save me?

Stop!

Spirit-Vanishing Arrow!

Muci.

Your Highness, you got the wrong person.

Can you show me your face then?

We are just strangers, we don't have to meet.

Well, why are you carrying the Spirit-Vanishing Arrow?

And why did you sneak into the Beiyuan Villa?

Your target is Xufeng, isn't it?

Do you know the consequences of destroying his primordial spirit?

Muci, I know it's you.

You just made the same moves as before.

Your Highness, you should just take care of yourself.

Muci...

Muci, come out!

Muci, come out and see me!

Why do you pretend not to know me?

How could it be? How?

You gave my memory back to me!

Muci!

You gave it back to me!

LIUYING

Why did you ask me to come here?

You gave me a gift that I liked so much,

I should certainly reciprocate.

Look!

A heart!

Now, I give my heart to you,

you should keep it well.

Sure.

I promise you I'll wear it close to my heart

until the last moment of my life, okay?

I'm sorry.

I broke my promise.

BEIYUAN VILLA

Your Majesty, what is your discomfort today?

I feel chest pain and shortness of breath.

His pulse shows that he has smooth breathing.

What's there to diagnose?

If Your Majesty feels chest pain and shortness of breath,

I'll go prepare a piece of tonic medicine

to replenish your heart and lungs.

I'm sure you will breathe smoothly after taking it.

Apart from the chest pain and shortness of breath,

I also have a splitting headache today.

Why do you bother me again?

There's no problem with the pulse.

What's there to diagnose?

Your Majesty has been worrying too much over the state affairs for days,

so I'll prepare a tranquilizer.

I'm sure it'll relieve your headache.

Apart from the chest pain and shortness of breath,

and a splitting headache, I also have a poor appetite,

and I lost sleep.

Why do you give me a difficult task every day?

The pulse is quite strong.

What's there to diagnose?

Your Majesty, when did these symptoms start

and how long have they lasted?

It's always like this when you're gone,

and seeing you would ease it a little bit.

I heard the Saint Doctors' Family has the medical skill

that is second to none.

As the Saint Girl of Saint Doctors' Family,

you've already been here for a couple of days,

but you haven't diagnosed what disease I have yet,

fooling me with some useless medicine.

Don't you feel ashamed?

Please forgive me for my disability.

Your Majesty, please give me some more time.

I will surely cure your illness.

Couldn't King Yi be lovesick?

How could it be?

King Yi has never seen my face!

If he is lovesick, he loves someone else.

That's right. Guess what?

Could it be that His Majesty is sick

from missing somebody?

As I said, you don't get the essence when learning.

Well, tell me

which medical book mentioned lovesickness?

Go, go, go and get me the book.

If we fail to cure His Majesty,

we will both be implicated.

-I see. -Go quickly!

Lovesick?

BEIYUAN VILLA

I heard that these days

His Majesty always calls in that Saint Girl of Saint Doctors' Family,

and she stays in there for quite a while.

In the past, if Princess Suihe came,

His Majesty used to send her away with just a few words.

Looks like His Majesty treats the Saint Girl quite differently.

That's it.

His Majesty has an eye for the Saint Girl.

You see, the tributary fresh fruits

were recently sent to the Saint Girl every day.

Could it be that His Majesty loves the Saint Girl?

It's the Beiyuan Villa here.

There are some words we can't speak.

Let's go.

Saint Girl,

this is from Duke Nanping.

He hopes the Saint Girl will answer the questions well.

At this time in five days, I'll come and pick up the reply letter.

What are you thinking of?

It's you, Qianghuo!

I wasn't thinking of anything.

Jinmi, according to your observation,

is the life of His Majesty in danger?

If so, why don't we go back early?

Although the life of His Majesty isn't in danger,

he does have different physical discomforts.

Now that we're here, how can we return without curing him?

If we fail to diagnose his symptoms,

we'll disgrace our Saint Doctors' Family, won't we?

Besides, if he doesn't get well,

I'm going to be buried with him, sooner or later.

Am I right?

You mean cousin often calls in the Saint Girl to his bedroom

and she stays there for quite a while?

All the people in the mansion say that

His Majesty cares a lot for the Saint Girl

and treats her differently.

Cousin has a physical malaise these days

and the Saint Girl of Saint Doctors' Family

has top-notch medical skill.

There's no harm in her staying in there,

as she is devoted to curing him.

Don't guess blindly like others.

Yes.

Well, do you know the name of the Saint Girl?

She's called Jinmi.

Jinmi.

As I see, Your Majesty has a good appetite these two days.

That's true, but I don't let Jin--

don't let the Saint Girl know it.

Otherwise, our efforts will be in vain.

Speaking of the Saint Girl,

she didn't have a bite of the food

we sent there these two days.

Were the dishes not delicious?

According to the maid, the Saint Girl is sick.

So the summons from Your Majesty today,

I'm afraid she can't make it.

Why didn't you tell me earlier?

The wind was so strong that day,

I told you not to sit in the yard that long.

But you didn't listen to me, did you?

Come on, take the medicine and you'll get better.

PICTURESQUE RIVERS AND MOUNTAINS

-My respects... -How did you get sick?

Your Majesty, the Saint Girl is just infected with the wind chill.

She will be fine after taking medicine and resting for two days.

-There'll be no big deal. -It's been two days.

Why hasn't she gotten well yet?

You're also from Saint Doctors' Family, aren't you?

Why can't you cure a minor illness like this?

Why does His Majesty get so angry?

Is he angry that I can't go see him?

But his energy is really great today.

-Take your leave. -Yes.

Your Majesty, my... my...

There's no need. I allow you to not greet me from now on.

So handsome and so gentle!

The future queen is so blessed.

I can do it myself.

My grapes are all sweet.

Xufeng, I have given way to you since childhood,

but for Jinmi,

I won't give in.

Jinmi...

I don't know what background the Saint Girl has.

Who are you?

My respects, Princess Suihe.

Princess?

The Heavenly Empress asked me

to unseal the immortal memories of Your Highness.

What immortal memories?

What the hell are you talking about?

-Sorry to offend. -You--

Don't come over here. Don't come over.

Do you know who my cousin is?

How dare you! I'll kill you.

This should be the Spirit-Vanishing Arrow my foster mother mentioned.

Who the hell is he?

He's so hard to deal with.

BEIYUAN VILLA

Qianghuo, why do you get up so early?

Your Majesty!

Has your wind cold healed?

I am still waiting for your diagnosis and treatment.

I have recovered.

Sorry to make you worry.

Your Majesty, do you still have the feeling of chest pain

and shortness of breath,

a splitting headache, or other discomforts these days?

Why don't you make another diagnosis on me?

Smile so warm like the spring breeze.

He should be in a good mood today.

Yesterday, he came here with jubilant strides and a rosy complexion.

And now his breath is even and his face radiant.

It's completely unlike what he said. He is not that weak.

Please forgive me for my disability.

The pulse of Your Majesty is strong and steady.

I said earlier that I felt chest pain and shortness of breath, a splitting headache,

a poor appetite and lack of sleep.

Although it was a little bit exaggerated,

these symptoms were truly what I felt.

As the Saint Girl of Saint Doctors' Family,

you don't know what the symptoms mean.

Your Majesty, I...

You're not experienced. I can't blame it on you.

My disease couldn't have been recorded

in the ordinary medical books.

Your Majesty, as far as I know,

your pulse

indicates

lovesickness?

You... You already figured it out?

Yes.

It seems

that a girl is the right medicine for Your Majesty.

Let me ask you,

do you want me to be sick

or healthy?

What do you mean by that, Your Majesty?

I certainly hope Your Majesty is healthy

and enjoys longevity.

CALM GREENERY AND QUIET SPRING

Here comes the freshly ground sesame paste.

So sweet-smelling--

I didn't know Your Majesty was here. Please forgive my rudeness.

Qianghuo?

Why is it so familiar to me?

So I suggest

Your Majesty can try an herb, Qianghuo.

-Qianghuo? -Exactly.

Apart from dispelling coldness, eliminating wind and cold,

this medicine can also cure Yang...

This medicine can also cure

your kidney deficiency.

Well, the Lantern Festival is coming in a few days.

I'd like to ask you what kind of lantern you like.

The phoenix lantern.

Muci.

Muci.

-What's wrong? -What's wrong?

What's going on?

What's going on?

Your Highness!

Jump over here.

Damn, this is the Nether Fury.

Your Highness!

Muci.

Muci.

Wangchuan River gathers grievances and resentments,

even the immortals and demons fear it. Your Highness, you go first!

Muci, don't force yourself to confront it.

You'll receive a countercharge.

Muci.

Muci.

Muci.

Your Highness, go quickly!

Muci.

Muci.

What the hell happened back then?

Why don't you want to recognize me?

Since we came here,

you've been gloomy with worry and sadness.

What happened?

Nothing.

Perhaps it's because I'm a bit acclimatized.

I see that His Majesty is energetic,

he doesn't look like a sick person.

Why don't we go back to Saint Doctors' Family?

The mission of our Saint Doctors' Family

is to ensure the health of His Majesty.

His Majesty himself has not said he's recovered.

How can we leave without permission?

You can't, or you don't want to?

I'm the Saint Girl, and I'll undertake it.

Saint Girl...

I hope you can remember that.

What's wrong with you today?

I'm fine.

What am I going to do?

Crow, Duke Nanping...

Who should I choose?

Have you heard anything from the Saint Girl?

Duke, there's no news.

Looks like she doesn't know what I am capable of.

It's time to exert some pressure on her.

BEIYUAN VILLA

I ADVISE YOU TO GET RID OF LORD YI,

OTHERWISE THE CLAN OF HOLY MEDICINE WOULD BE WIPED OUT

Who are you?

Are you all right? Did you get hurt?

I'm fine. Thank you, Immortal Runyu.

That was close.

If it wasn't for your appearance,

my little life would've been over.

Have you offended anybody?

I've been in contact with very few people

growing up,

let alone offend someone.

Could it be Duke Nanping?

But he just sent a letter hours ago,

and to want to kill me so soon.

It's irrational.

That arrow was strange.

It's absolutely not a weapon a mortal should have.

It seems...

Don't worry, I'll handle it.

What a nice piece of fish scale!

It's a dragon scale.

-Dragon scale? -It's for you.

If you want to see me, just say the dragon-summon spell.

Dragon-summon spell?

Thank you, Immortal Runyu.

So fragrant. It smells a bit like ambergris.

But better than that.

It's cool and sweet,

exactly like your body scent.

I wonder if I could use it as a guiding herb.

It's the only piece.

It's a pity if it's used as medicine.

I'm kidding.

You gave me such a precious thing,

I'll be sure to keep it safe.

There was once a fairy,

who promised to appreciate the epiphyllum with me,

but then for a variety of reasons, she failed to make it.

In ten days, the flower will bloom again.

I wonder if I could invite you

to appreciate it with me.

You saved my life, gave me the dragon scale,

and invited me to appreciate the flower.

That's very kind of you, Immortal Runyu,

but this makes me embarrassed.

If you are happy to take it,

I will be contented.

You are neither relative nor friend to me, how can I have the cheek to receive it?

Though I have no valuables,

if you have any wishes,

just tell me and I'm sure I'll do whatever I can to grant it.

Well...

can you make wine?

Make... Make wine?

I have a friend who always says

"Appreciate the flowers and drink the wine.

It's so pleasant that you'll be reluctant to return home."

Fine, fine. I'm on that.

Looks like your old friend is pretty interesting.

Tonight the sky has lost its brilliance

since your Highness failed to arrange the stars in the sky.

It's so boring.

-Your Highness. -Please take a seat.

In the huge Heavenly Realm, the only one who knows

I'm absent would be you.

You descended to the mortal world in the depth of night,

I'm afraid it's not just for Zen meditation.

It's not that simple, is it?

I dare not say an insinuating word before your Highness.

This time, Fairy Jinmi will experience her inexorable doom.

His Majesty ordered that no fairies or immortals

shall intervene.

Your Highness, you went a little overboard this time.

My father sent you to take care of Jinmi,

but just now, Jinmi was close to losing her life.

I think you must have also seen through the mortal world-viewing mirror

that the murderer was not a mortal.

I wonder how you can afford

to be so careless.

Essentially,

how dare I violate the order of my father!

You also have your difficulty,

I don't want to delve into it.

The tree desires stillness but the wind will not cease.

I wanted to make concessions to avoid trouble,

but some people are trying to be malicious.

Ultimately,

Jinmi is my fiancée.

If something happens to her,

then even my word does not carry much weight.

I will never sit idly by.

Even if it stirs up trouble in the Empyrean Cloud Palace,

I won't fear it at all.

Your Highness, you take it too seriously.

No one dares to harm the heavenly consort of your Highness.

What's more, it is the Heavenly Emperor's order.

I'll surely act with all my heart.

Well, that's the best way to say it.

And my final reminder,

Jinmi is not only my fiancée,

she is also the daughter of the former Floral Immortal and the Water Immortal.

Even His Majesty regards her with special concern.

Frankly speaking, the experience of inexorable doom

is only to make an exception to grant Jinmi the Floral Immortal.

Just a motion to go through.

In case anything happens to the next Floral Immortal,

His Majesty will be sure to strictly investigate it.

Who do you think will be the scapegoat?

By that time,

who will stand out

and keep you safe?

You're wise.

You should have the right answer

for which eye to open and which to close.

It's so late, you can leave now.

It's not far from the front.

PALACE OF DUKE NANPING

Father.

Our respects, your Highness.

Sui, you're here.

Good.

-You can leave now. -Yes.

Father.

Your father and Minister Fu,

who is more magnanimous?

Naturally, my father is.

How can Minister Fu compare with my father?

How about His Majesty?

My father's absolutely perfect when he was young.

My cousin was not born yet.

In my heart,

my father is always the best father in the world,

with imposing appearance and graceful bearing.

What a sweetheart you are!

You're so smart.

I don't know which guy will be so blessed

to marry you in the future.

I'm afraid I'll envy him to death.

Father, you said that again.

In big Huaiwu,

the one who will make me willing to cook for him

will be nobody else.

Father, are you going to envy my cousin?

You're talking about your cousin all the time.

Girls truly have outward hearts.

My daughter,

I raised you for His Majesty.

What are you talking about, father? Isn't it okay if I don't get married?

Marquis.

This is the golden snow bird's nest that her Highness cooked for you.

Since father thought I have an outward heart,

then father would be better not to eat the golden snow bird's nest

that I cooked for you specially.

No one is allowed to rob what my daughter gives me.

Just take your time. You forgot the way of keeping good health again.

How does it taste?

Great!

It's carefully prepared by my beloved daughter,

how could it not be good?

The best taste in the world is nothing more than this.

A TIME OF NATIONAL PEACE AND ORDER

It was decided yesterday that we would discuss affairs from 7 to 9 a.m. today.

But it's noon now. His Majesty is always punctual.

Is it possible that

the rumor is true?

That His Majesty has got some unmentionable disease.

That's a groundless statement.

You don't need to worry.

Lord, when hunting in Luoye Mountain,

did anything happen to His Majesty?

I heard there was a Liangguo troop

in ambush...

Minister Fu, you and I are servants to His Majesty.

We shall only exert all our strengths and be loyal to His Majesty.

It could be a mess outside the court and among the lower officials,

but that doesn't matter.

However, we can't mess up.

Send the Saint Girl of Saint Doctors' Family quickly!

Yes.

General Qin,

what's wrong with His Majesty?

His Majesty doesn't feel well, please go back.

-Minister, please wait. -Get out of the way!

-Your Majesty. -Your Majesty.
