[Flourished Peony]

[Episode 16]

I was only 18 when my husband died.

Since then, I never remarried.

Over the years, I have maintained a fleet,

trading in all places.

I've even been to foreign lands.

I've heard all sorts of rumors and slanders.

If it weren't for my ability
to discern truth from falsehood

and not fear unconventional judgment,

how could I have survived to this day?

In this world,

life for women is truly not easy.

We should help and understand each other.

What do you say?

Would you consider

becoming my niece-in-law?

Even if you spend all his money

and make him work every day,

I would be happy to see it happen.

A woman's destiny

is marriage.

Without a family or status,

one will ultimately be taken advantage of.

If so,

why haven't you remarried?

Because I am well-off enough

to live well on my own

and I'm even able to help

many handsome young men.

If you are strong and wealthy enough,

naturally, you won't need to depend on anyone.

Otherwise, you still need to find someone

worthy of entrusting your life to.

I see.

I still have to work hard on my own.

Mudan.

My nephew is handsome and clever.

Do you not feel anything for him?

Then tell me,

what kind of man

- Do you fancy?
- I think…

Don't tell me you will never marry.

I won't believe that.

I think if one day,

I find myself unexpectedly in a dire situation

and someone descends
from the sky clothed in rosy clouds,

coming to my side

to help me dispel the gloom,

perhaps, I would be touched.

But it's not that I need him

to rescue me.

I hope this person

can understand me better than I do myself.

Even if I don't say a word,

he knows all my likes, dislikes,

decisions, and dreams.

No matter what desperate situation I fall into,

he can face it with me together.

My nephew

is indeed quite far

from your expectations.

I also know that this kind of mutual
understanding and affection

is rare in this world.

So I have never expected it.

[Jiang Mansion]

I have clearly said no to Madam Feng.

And she has accepted it.

Madam Feng is persistent.

She retreats to advance again.

She is currently coming up with a new plan,

and my lord wishes to discuss
strategies with you

to present a united front.

He is inside.

That's an odd arrangement
for a strategy discussion.

Jiang Changyang.

If we're just discussing, why close the door?

Lady He.

My lord said it must be kept confidential.

Jiang Changyang.

If we are discussing strategies,

why have you arranged the room like this?

There's no need for such a big fuss, right?

He Weifang.

Jiang Changyang.

He Weifang.

Don't scare me, Jiang Changyang.

He Weifang.

What? What are you doing?

What happened?

Let me down quickly.

I… How should I put you down?

Over there, that way.

Pull, pull it.

This one?

Jiang Changyang.

What is all this?

He Weifang.

Isn't this what you told my aunt?

Your beloved one

needs to descend from the heavens in darkness

clothed in rosy clouds.

Are you happy

about this?

But I was lying.

What about Chuanyu?

Don't mention that traitor to me.

What's going on here?

He Weifang.

Untie me first.

Madam Feng.

Madam Feng.

Even if Jiang Changyang meets

all the requirements I've set,

it's impossible for me to like him.

Just let us out.

Mudan.

I have already thoroughly reformed Suizhi

to meet the standards

of your beloved.

I will give you four hours

to listen to his confession.

If you still do not change your mind,

I will not force you.

After all, I've prepared

the betrothal gifts and apology gifts.

Lady He.

My lord.

I… I sincerely apologize to you.

How can you be so superficial?

If they really end up married

because of this,

they would be thanking you.

I have indeed been superficial, Madam.

Suizhi.

Be sure to correct your attitude

and behave well.

Otherwise, on returning,

you will kneel before the tablet
and face the whip again.

Traitor.

Chuanyu really is a traitor.

You wanted to face desperate

circumstances with another person, right?

So Aunt tried to satisfy you.

Untie me.

With your level of ability,

you can't compete with my aunt.

I really overestimated you.

Compensate me.

That's not the deal.

I worked hard to reject you.

And now,

you want to kick down the ladder?

Have you thought about the consequences?

Your aunt hasn't left yet.

Since Mr. Jiang is so fond of me,

having no way to repay,
shall we fulfill Aunt's wishes?

Fine, no compensation.

You little scoundrel.

One day a lump of gold will smash you to death.

Thank you for your kind words.

What's all this clanging and banging?

You told Aunt

that your beloved needs to understand

all your likes, dislikes, and decisions.

She tortured me severely

and forced it out of me.

What could I do?

How do you know

[Likes to drink osmanthus wine]
I like to drink osmanthus wine?

[Likes to eat dried fish]
And that I like to eat dried fish?

You've invited me to eat it several times.

My taste buds haven't gone bad.

My foot is eight and a half inches long.

You know this too?

I've never seen anyone
with feet bigger than yours.

Naturally, it's hard to forget.

Your aunt probably wants us

to share our preferences.

[Afraid of cockroaches]
I never expected Jiang Suizhi

to actually be afraid of cockroaches.

That's not true. She's making it up.

Then do you know that cockroaches are edible?

Once we're out,
I'll cook you a full insect feast.

If you have the guts, eat it all.

Let me see.

What else would Jiang Changyang be afraid of?

- Don't look.
- Didn't you say she made it up?

If so, what are you afraid of?

Why pull them down?

Let me see.

Why are you afraid?

I want to see what's written.

You can't look.

Jiang Changyang wet the bed when he was little.

♫ If the heart is like frost ♫

♫ Congealing so much of the past ♫

♫ It sinks into your gaze ♫

♫ Melting and flowing with you ♫

♫ If love is like frost ♫

♫ Can this ten thousand miles
of roaming winds and waves ♫

♫ Finally touch a sunny day ♫

I'm full.

Sit down.

Last night's atmosphere was very good,

but how come Mudan hasn't agreed to you yet?

She is different from other women.

She's not interested in those flashy ornaments.

Aunt, please don't make things worse.

Just let us be.

I think

you're just too stubborn.

The people who surround you on a daily basis

are women from pleasure quarters.

Mudan is capable and intelligent.

Of course, she's different from them.

You ought to be more tolerant and gentle.

If you don't behave well,

are you expecting her to please you?

Before you came, Auntie,

she was trying to please me

because of my lechery.

I think your previous actions

are exactly the reason

why she doesn't dare to talk to you
about private matters of men and women.

Madam.

What is the traitor doing here
this early in the morning?

Did Mudan accept the apology gift?

She is stingy.

She wouldn't say no to money given for free.

Yes, Lady He has accepted the things.

She has asked me to pass on her regards.

Did she say anything else?

When I was there,

Lady He's shop seemed to be
in some kind of trouble.

She hurried out

and said nothing else.

Trouble?

That's good.

That's the perfect opportunity
for you to show your merit.

Indeed, a woman's heart is the most venomous.

Fellow residents,

neighbors,

you must stand up for me.

Huamanzhu's

shopkeeper lady brings tough luck to husbands,

yet she still comes out
to do business in public.

You've caused my husband

to be sick and bedridden.

You must compensate for my husband.

Such nonsense could be charged
with the crime of slander.

That's punishable by caning.

It's not nonsense.

Ever since I bought this incense powder

from Huamanzhu,

every time I get close to my husband,

he gets dizzy and disoriented.

His limbs go weak. It's very strange.

Later, after consulting
a geomancer, I came to know

that the incense powder from Huamanzhu

is tainted with malevolent energy

and it has overcome my husband.

Why would you speak of others in such a way?

Your husband has fallen ill,

and instead of seeking a doctor,

you found a practitioner of arcane arts.

Do you have a guilty conscience?

Shall I have a doctor

visit your home and take a look?

I, of course, I…

I sought out a doctor first.

But he couldn't discern any issue.

That's why I turned to a geomancer.

Geomancer, can you figure out

what exactly is the problem with her?

This woman

is destined to the Seven Killings,

bringing calamity and malevolence.

And recently she's even
been possessed by evil spirits,

drawing on the fortune
and prosperity of her neighbors

to increase her own wealth.

She is actually a demon!

- And to think we trusted her so much.
- It's all trickery.

Malicious slander.

You are spreading rumors and defamation.

I'll make you pay for your wild claims!

Fu, don't fall for his trickery.

If we injure them,

it would be our fault instead.

But we can't let them make a scene.

I advise the shop owner to quickly kneel down

and let me expel the evil spirit within you.

Otherwise, you'll bring harm to all around.

That's truly a sinful act.

Fine, in my entire life,

I've indeed never encountered any evil spirits.

I'll stand right here

and see what this evil spirit

you speak of looks like.

Let me reveal my true form then!

Come on.

This demon is using your body

to absorb others' fortunes.

It harms others,

and it's normal for you to be unaware.

I will now perform a ritual

to drive out the demon within you.

You will thank me for it.

Come on.

It's smoking.

Reveal your true form immediately!

The smoke in your hand

must be caused by the flint
you smeared in advance, right?

Do you dare to show your hand to everyone?

With death knocking at your door,

you still spout bewitching nonsense.

Evil spirit, reveal your true form immediately!

Break.

Broken. It's broken!

What on earth is this?

Ren!

- Ren!
- Ren.

- What happened?
- What's wrong?

- Quickly save him!
- How come he's vomiting blood?

Everyone, come take a look quickly.

This demon is too vicious.

In order to remain in her physical body,

she uses her helper

to withstand my magic.

Shopkeeper, your murderous aura is strong.

If you come any closer,
he won't live much longer.

Drop the act.

What kind of drug did you give my assistant?

I'm telling you,

if anything happens to him,
I won't let you off.

- Slandering!
- Fu, find a doctor.

- Okay.
- Go, quickly.

You've cursed my husband with illness,

and now you've struck down your own assistant.

I'm afraid it won't be many days

before all the people in Huamanzhu

are cursed to death by you.

Quickly, carry him away.

What are you doing?

Don't touch him.

Don't touch him!

By obstructing like this,
you're going to cost his life.

- Right.
- Saving him is what's important.

- Geomancer, save me!
- Get back.

Geomancer.

Geomancer, save me, sir.

Ever since I came to Huamanzhu,

my health has declined day by day.

Just now, when the bronze mirror shattered,

as if in a trance, I saw a demon attacking me,

then I lost consciousness.

Geomancer, sir, you must save me.

Geomancer, take me with you, sir.

Rest assured, I will definitely save you.

- Come on, take him away.
- Did you hear that?

You can't come to Huamanzhu.

It's dangerous.

I didn't lie.

A life is at stake.

I'll let you go for now today.

If the shop owner still has a conscience,

please close your shop.

Do not further torment the neighbors.

Evil spirit.

My lady, you can't seem to get pregnant.

Could it be because our shop

is right next to this Huamanzhu?

Let's leave now. Don't get
contaminated by the evil aura.

- Let's go.
- Hurry up.

♫ The world builds high walls for me ♫

[Huamanzhu]

♫ With a lowly status,
I have nothing to lean on ♫

Madam, I don't believe a single word

of what the Geomancer said.

I will always follow you.

Mudan.

What are we going to do?

♫ Ah, do not sigh for fate is unpredictable ♫

Alright then.

Since the flower guild is so frowned

upon by us women doing business,

don't blame us for following suit.

Mother, this jade bracelet is so pretty.

It suits me very well.

If you like it, let's buy it.

You are the best, Mother.

Lian'er.

I actually bought a special peony plant

to show you, Auntie.

Unfortunately, you came too late,
and the blooming season is over.

So I just have to find

another way to show my respect for you.

This color is not pretty.

It's too old-fashioned.

If you really wanted to show respect to me,

after eating breakfast,

you should have gone to save the beauty.

Shop owner.

None of your jingling hairpins

can match my auntie's beauty.

Bring out the best if there's any better.

Yes.

Why are you still using this?

Haven't you heard?

The Huamanzhu shop owner
is fated with an evil presence.

She has led to the death of three husbands.

And now she's even possessed by evil spirits.

The things she sells

are all tainted with evil aura.

If used for too long, at the least,
it can lead to marital discord.

At worst, it can bring about misfortune

and serious sickness.

Is that true? You can't just talk nonsense.

It's absolutely true.

The renowned geomancer Master Zhang

has just gone there to exorcise evils.

But the demon was too powerful.

A worker from Huamanzhu

vomited blood on the spot.

That's unlucky.

Gullibly believing in ignorant words,

spreading rumors and damaging reputations,

such behavior does not
befit a noble's household.

We're just chatting privately.

It's nothing serious.

I didn't know Floral Envoy was here.

We apologize for disturbing you.

We will leave right away.

Let's go.

Using such means against a woman,

it's really despicable.

The rumors are getting worse.

This is a good opportunity.

What are you waiting for?

If she can't handle it,

she will come to me.

Why should I be so eager?

It's as if I don't believe in her abilities.

Whether she seeks you out is her decision.

But whether or not
to take the initiative to help

reveals your intentions.

I thought you wanted
to show your respect to me.

Go.

Fine.

I'll send Chuanyu to scout, alright?

You made the rule.

Knock before entering.

You encountered such slander.

Not only is your complexion usual,

but it's even ruddy.

Are you really a fairy?

This shows that Huamanzhu's business is good,

obstructing others' path to wealth.

Such things are inevitable.

If I get upset about it,

I'm giving the rumormongers an advantage.

My aunt really should see

this heartless and unfeeling manner of yours.

She forced me to help.

Otherwise,

I won't bother with this trivial matter.

Yes, yes, I know.

The Floral Envoy is busy with noble matters.

If not for being lazy and gluttonous,

how would you deign to visit me here?

I will keep

this favor

on Madam Feng's account.

Has the sly flower merchant

thought of a way to solve the issue?

I have already set up the stage.

Now,

all that's missing is someone like you,

a famous actor

capable of bewitching people's hearts.

I should have named you Jiang Bold.

You dare to have the grand Floral Envoy

be your actor.

You are acting every day anyway.

It won't matter this one time.

Besides, my money is your money, after all.

Speak up, what's your plan?

If the evil spirits can possess someone,

they can be exorcised.

Since the other side can bribe a geomancer,

why can't I?

Besides Mr. Jiang,

I will also invite another

person with upright reputation to take action.

At that time, we'll attack from both sides,

ensuring there'll be no concerns.

Who else do you plan to get?

[Cao's Flower Shop]

These are all recently acquired goods.

Mr. Jiang, why didn't you

say anything in advance

so that I could clear out the other guests?

Please, browse away.

Mr. Jiang.

If there's anything you fancy,

I will immediately send someone

to deliver it to your mansion.

- Mr. Jiang.
- Mr. Jiang.

- My lord!
- Mr. Jiang!

- My lord.
- Mr. Jiang.

- Mr. Jiang.
- Mr. Jiang.

- My lord.
- What are you waiting for? Get a doctor!

- Alright.
- My lord, my lord.

- Mr. Jiang.
- My lord.

[Huamanzhu]

What happened to the Floral Envoy?

Jiang Mansion has just bought
Herbaceous Peonies from Huamanzhu,

and my lord started coughing up
blood and getting weak today.

It must be your doing.

Geomancer, hurry and expel the evil spirits!

Alright.

Could it be karma?

I had heard that Huamanzhu

was haunted by a malevolent spirit.

How strange indeed.

The shopkeeper does not have
a trace of malevolent aura.

But instead, there is an increase

of an auspicious aura.

Auspicious?

- Yes.
- An auspicious aura.

Impossible.

Then why has my lord
fallen gravely ill for no reason?

Even the imperial physician
was at his wit's end.

Do not worry, let me calculate carefully.

Indeed, Mr. Jiang has been harmed by evil aura.

But this evil aura

originates from the sachet

at Mr. Jiang's waist.

This, this isn't from our shop.

- The sachet?
- This isn't ours.

- What?
- This isn't.

Presumably, the shopkeeper
often did good deeds in the past,

so this demon could not

harbor evil aura in her body

to grow stronger.

Moreover, during these past few days,

there has been a great shift
in the celestial patterns,

so the demon had no means
to cause trouble here and has left.

Where did it go then?

Allow me to calculate carefully.

This demon

takes delight in the vitality of living beings

and enjoys the essence of plants.

Now it is at the largest flower shop

in the eastern part of the city.

In the East Market, the guild head Cao's

flower house is the most prosperous one.

Could it be…

This sachet of mine

was actually bought there.

See? It all adds up.

Quickly! Fu, Shengyi, hurry, hurry.

Ladies and gentlemen,
due to the matter of the evil spirit before,

I feared implicating everyone

so I fasted and meditated
in silence for three days

to make a batch of brocade sachets.

I had the master
from Kaiyuan Temple bless them.

I will gift this item to Mr. Jiang.

I hope Mr. Jiang can recover soon.

Wait a moment.

Geomancer.

I have examined it, and this item truly can
ward off evil and bring fortune.

[Warding Off Evil, Prosperity Sachet]
Ladies and gentlemen, ladies and gentlemen.

Huamanzhu

has invited a master

to rearrange the Fengshui

and asked Kaiyuan Temple

to bless these Prosperity Sachets

with activating charms and blessings.

In order to compensate
for the loss of the neighbors,

I am willing to give away
these sachets for free.

And the remaining sachets
will be sold as usual.

I also hope that everyone can

support us generously.

Geomancer, is Huamanzhu free from trouble now?

Yes, indeed.

The shopkeeper has gone to great lengths.

This 'Hundred Fortunes Picture' matches
the shopkeeper's destiny perfectly.

The shop now

harbors fortune and accumulates prosperity,

bringing luck to the home
and glory to the people.

Everyone is welcome to visit in great numbers.

You will certainly be filled with good fortune.

No need to worry anymore.

Good, good!

Wait a moment.

After wearing this sachet,

I do feel better.

And my limbs no longer feel as heavy

as they did before.

How great is that, huh?

Thank you for gifting me this item.

Mr. Jiang, you are welcome.

From now on, all flowers for the Jiang Mansion
will be bought from Huamanzhu.

If anyone in my mansion wishes
to buy incense powder for their wives,

they should also come to Huamanzhu.

Yes.

Thank you, Mr. Jiang.

I will surely cultivate them with care

and will not disappoint you.

What a shoddy flower guild,
all show and no substance.

Throw this filthy thing far away from me.

Yes.

Come on.

Everybody, Prosperity Sachets

are available to all the neighbors around.

Come on, come on, just take
a prosperity sachet.

- Fu, quickly distribute to everyone.
- Come on, come on, have a try.

If you wish to buy a sachet,

you may also enter the store.

Come, this way, please.

- Please, inside.
- This way, please.

- Take your time, there's plenty.
- Come on, come on in.

This way, please.

Come on, please come inside.

Take it easy, there's enough for everyone.

It is full of good fortune.

Come, everyone, this way, please.

The teacher's lecture today
was truly interesting.

Indeed, thanks to the fragrance of the sachets,

I didn't feel sleepy today.

[Imperial Academy]
Yes, indeed.

It's full of fragrance.

Thank you, Wenqing,

for giving my sachet in advance

to those few

talented scholars.

Now they have passed the exam,

and I have also overcome the difficulty.

We are flesh and blood relatives.

There's no need for such formality.

Seeing you establish yourself in Chang'an now

brings me great comfort

I've heard that the sachets from Huamanzhu

are particularly effective.

In the Imperial Academy entrance exam,

students who wore the sachets

all got selected.

I've also heard that the Floral Envoy
who wore this sachet

got healed of all ailments.

And moreover, at the casino,

he won for three days and nights straight.

Is that so?

Let's go buy one too.

- Let's go.
- Let's go, let's go.

[Huamanzhu]

- Take care.
- Thank you.

- Hello, which one would you like?
- This one is so beautiful.

- This sachet is for changing luck.
- Okay, thank you.

Madam, how much is this one?

Cao Yuying lifted a stone

and dropped it on his own foot.

Now, not a single person goes to his shop.

This is karma. Truly satisfying.

Now the whole of Chang'an

knows about Huamanzhu.

This time, a misfortune turned into a blessing.

It's also something I never expected.

We've not only gained male customers,

but also expanded our category of business

to spices and sachets.

It seems that our Huamanzhu branch will open

very soon.

- Come on, cheers.
- Come on.

Cheers.

I've consulted medical books

to specially prepare this ointment.

The hair nourished by this
will not only be black,

but also retain a long-lasting fragrance.

You are really thoughtful.

I know

that Jiang Changyang helped me

because you spoke for me in private.

I am very grateful.

Madam, you are about to embark on a journey.

I have specially selected three plants

of rare and famous peonies.

Madam, you must keep them.

With people taking meticulous care of them,

by next spring,

they will be able to bloom.

You are considerate in every aspect,

lovable and sensible.

You are a great match

with Suizhi.

Madam,

please stop joking with me.

I'm not worthy of the Floral Envoy.

I have always been reluctant

for him to be some Floral Envoy.

If he has a family he wants to protect,

perhaps then he can settle down,

changing his way of life.

Mudan, do you want to reconsider?

If you marry him,

there will be no in-laws to serve,

and Suizhi ignores rules.

In the days to come,

he will surely let you do as you please.

He can't let go of

his parents' old affairs.

With this knot in his heart,

I'm afraid he won't get married.

Did Suizhi

actually disclose such private matters

to you?

So, you see,

you should know

that his usual grins and banter

are all just a facade.

He harbors

pain in his heart.

Why is that?

Is it because of his parents?

When the right moment comes,

he will tell you.

Mudan,

even if you don't like Suizhi,

could you, when he is lonely and in sorrow,

spend more time with him?

Over the years,

he has been truly too lonely.

Madam.

I'm afraid I can't

fulfill your request.

Actually, I have deceived you.

Jiang Changyang doesn't like me at all.

The reason we put on this act

is to make you give up

pressuring him to marry.

Besides,

I've received money for it.

I'm sorry, Madam.

You came to nourish my hair today.

Did you also get paid for that?

No, no.

You have been so kind to me, Madam.

It's my way of showing respect to you, Madam.

It has nothing to do with Jiang Changyang.

Good girl.

I have not misjudged you.

I have watched him grow up.

And I would not misread his thoughts.

Where is the Qiongtai Yulu?

Madam departs today,

and the flowers have been
moved onto the carriage.

My lord, Madam.

It's not a courtesy

to steal gifts back.

This plant is not easy to care for.

It'll be a loss if it dies.

Better to leave it with me,

and next spring, you can admire
its unmatched beauty again, Auntie.

But I heard

that Mudan cares deeply about this flower.

If you can't bear to part with it, just say so.

I can't bear to part with you, my dear aunt.

I want to use it as a hook

to make you come back and see me more.

Okay, a kind person grants
other people's wishes.

For the grand wedding

of my beloved nephew,

I will definitely come back.

[Prince Ning's Mansion]

My family and I were only
able to move back to Chang'an

thanks to your thoughtful
arrangements, Your Highness.

I am deeply grateful.

I will certainly work diligently
for you in the future.

Come on, get up and speak.

Thank you, Your Highness.

Chang'an is different from Luoyang.

The Minister of the Imperial Treasury
is in charge of finances, goods,

the two capitals and four markets.

This position was envied by everyone,

but I overcame all objections

and left it to you.

Liu.

Do not disappoint me.

Stand up and speak.

We are catching up.

Don't bother with the formalities.

Everyone knows

that this position of mine

is made of gold.

You have cultivated me with great effort.

I must bear the weight.

Please rest assured, Your Highness.

Your Highness.

Before my trip,

the officials of Luoyang entrusted
me to bring respectful gifts.

Please take a look, Your Highness.

This is presented by officials
from the Chen family clan.

The rest is presented
by officials of other surnames.

So many land deeds.

Most of Luoyang's land is here, isn't it?

Those officials

obtained so many fiefdoms.

Did they occupy the lands of the common people?

If so,

I'm afraid it may tarnish your
esteemed reputation, Your Highness.

All under heaven is the king's land.

Don't worry about the lowly people.

Everyone even feels this chest is too small

to contain the heartfelt
devotion to His Highness.

Gold and silver are trivial matters.

The unity of the gentry is the most important.

His Majesty has a soft spot for flattery,

wishing to fulfill the dying
wish of Minister Xu.

But how can children of common families

compete with the glory
of the great scholarly families?

Your Highness is absolutely right.

The hundreds of officials of Luoyang

will certainly share your heart and virtue.

Youzhen has a good eye indeed.

Zishu,

with your guidance,

will surely

become a pillar of strength soon.

That's right.

It's your first visit.

I've also prepared a modest gift.

Ci.

Here.

This one

is called a Florican dog.

It's a tribute from foreign lands.

There are only two of them
in the palace of His Majesty.

I've heard that Master Liu
is very fond of dogs.

This dog

is my gift to you.

Thank you, Your Highness.

I shall take good care of it.

Good, good.

Stop.

Madam, we've arrived.

It's the sachets from this shop here

that will make one's official career prosperous

and wealthy.

What's the matter, Madam?

Look in the mirror.

Do you see the difference?

Isn't that the young lady?

But… I thought she died.

This matter must not be known to others.

Go to the office immediately
and ask the master to come home.

Say there are important
matters to discuss at home.

Yes, hurry back to the residence.

Crimson-purple seedlings are expensive.

Unexpectedly,

I found several wild ones today.

If I take them back and graft them
together with the Lovely Pair,

they will surely produce beautiful flowers.

Help! Help!

Help me!

Help!

Help!

♫ In endless Chang'an,
the zither's melody distant ♫

♫ Plum and willow trees bask in the sunshine,
as splendor returns with the year ♫

♫ Copper palace battlements,
songs and dances, glass goblets ♫

♫ Idle clouds and duckweed,
a thousand flowers burst forth ♫

♫ Time passes gracefully,
affairs settle like fading smoke ♫

♫ Let the years go by,
carried by the wind to early desires ♫

♫ If the heart is like water,
the bloom is ever-present ♫

♫ Still cherish the moon of my hometown,
to meet for long ♫

♫ The distant night sky strewn with stars,
reflecting the lovely moon ♫

♫ The peony's magnificent beauty
fills the Fragrance Garden ♫

♫ With a heart as my lantern,
I don't mind the distant mountain paths ♫

♫ The flute's sound,
a fleeting life's wishes fulfilled ♫

♫ Time passes gracefully,
affairs settle like fading smoke ♫

♫ Let the years go by,
carried by the wind to early desires ♫

♫ If the heart is like water,
the bloom is ever-present ♫

♫ Still cherish the moon of my hometown,
to meet for long ♫
