[Flourished Peony]

[Episode 31]

I hear the bride is gorgeous.

Mr. Liu, please.

- Okay.
- Okay.

Mr. Jiang is such an amorous man.

He took two concubines in three days.

I hear his first concubine is low-status.

Mr. Jiang didn't give her a wedding.

Today, His Highness
gave Mr. Jiang a noble concubine.

This banquet is luxurious.

Chuanyu.

Why haven't the bride and groom come?

We can't wait to give our congratulations.

Indeed.

They will be here soon.

I'll go and check on them.

Come on.

Haven't you been ready yet?

Taking a concubine is not serious--

I guess you don't take me seriously.

No wedding carriage.

No poetry for me.

I've already compromised.

Moreover,

Mudan

hasn't come back yet.

She has business to attend to.

She may not make it in time.

If you want to see her,

you'll see her tomorrow when greeting her.

I never forget His Highness's instruction.

At tonight's wedding banquet,

I must drink with Mudan.

Mudan won't neglect Prince Ning

and refuse me,

right?

I side with His Highness.

Mudan sides with me.

She won't refuse you.

How about you stay

and choose headwear for me?

Mudan has finally returned.

I will go and warn her

not to miss your auspicious time.

- Not bad.
- Smells so good.

I've told you so much.
How can you not understand?

This tastes good.

You've married him for only three days.

Today, he took another concubine

without even telling you in advance.

Tell me.

What are you going to do with him?

He is my husband, and I'm his concubine.

He doesn't need to inform me
about taking a new concubine.

- Come on.
- Alright.

Delicious.

Let's go.

He's not important.

Our opening feast matters more.

- Come on.
- Do you want more?

- Drink less.
- This wasn't grilled by Lady He.

It's so unpalatable.

This is burnt.

No worries, I'll grill more

for you.

- Come on.
- You eat this.

There's alcohol left.

Everyone, drink up.

- Thank you.
- Come on.

Okay.

Guys.

From now on,
Fragrance Garden relies on you all.

Please work hard.

When our business thrives,

at the celebration banquet,

I'll prepare even better alcohol for you.

Let's drink.

Lady He is righteous.

We're very lucky to work for you.

We must work hard

to run the Fragrance Garden soon.

- Cheers.
- Cheers.

Drink!

- Help yourselves.
- Come on.

- Fill it for me.
- Drink.

This one is burnt.

Don't eat it. Just throw it away.

- You eat.
- Give it a try.

Give me more.

Here you are.

Anyone else want more drinks?

I don't want any more.

Help me entertain everyone.

I'll be right back.

Okay.

Come on.

- Look at you.
- Give it to me.

Jiang Changyang.

You're taking another concubine again.

What are you doing here?

You burned some meat

just now.

I thought

I couldn't always
eat your night snack for free.

So I wanted to repay you.

What happened?

You kept me waiting.

As soon as you returned, you started

to drink with those people.

I got capable workers.

So I'm holding a feast for that.

Mr. Jiang.

You're taking a new concubine.

On your wedding day,

you still have time to drink with me?

Do you think I want to take a concubine?

Prince Ning likes to use women

to buy people off and control the officials.

He even placed Consort Hui at His Majesty.

What else can I do to refuse him?

Previously, you had no wife or concubines.

So he couldn't plant anyone around you.

However,

now that I'm your first concubine,

you can't refuse another concubine.

So,

I owe you an apology.

It's good that you're considerate.

The concubine sent by Prince Ning

is not easy to deal with.

She has chosen hairpins for a long time.

She's waiting for you

to offer you a few drinks.

Since I'm partly responsible,

no matter how difficult she is,

I will help you deal with her.

Let's go.

You're already drunk.

If you show up like this,

it'll be inappropriate,

and you'll be a joke.

You drank a bit too much.

Your face is red.

The powder can't even cover it.

The bride and groom are coming.

Men love beautiful women.

Look, what a pretty concubine.

Even her makeup is so good.

Lady He surprised me.

She provided beautiful flowers

and good makeup stuff

and rouge

Yes, very beautiful.

You must be Lianzhou.

I hear that you would like to toast me.

I was delayed on the way here.

Please forgive me.

Mudan.

Nice to meet you.

From now on, we are family.

If there's anything you need,

feel free to tell me.

You really treat me as family?

Then why are you late?

I thought you didn't want to see me

to disgrace His Highness.

How could that be?

As soon as you arrived, I sent word to Mudan.

To celebrate our wedding,

she prepared fine alcohol for us.

She respects you
as His Highness's adopted daughter.

It took a while to choose alcohol for you.

That's why she's late.

Yes.

Come.

I've been renovating Fragrance Garden.

The alcohol maker

brewed this Flowers Wine.

This wine tastes smooth and rich

with a lingering fragrance.

I wanted to open it next spring.

But since it's a wedding day,

I'll take this opportunity

to share the wine

with you all.

Good.

Good wine.

It's really good.

Here you are.

Indeed, it is good wine.

This wine is mellow and fragrant.

If I can

buy some of this wine,

- that would be great.
- Yes.

This wine is good.

Lady He's makeup is even better.

What's your makeup called?

Drunken Rosy.

It was done by Huamanzhu's Rosy Rouge.

And this Flowers Wine

is only available for sale at Fragrance Garden.

I hope

- all of you will come.
- Alright.

Indeed, it's good wine.

I'll order ten jars of it.

Great.

I'm happy to be here today.

Me too.

I'm a busy businesswoman,

not a refined woman.

I hope you don't mind.

I think

you're thoughtful.

I'll leave the domestic chores

to you.

Alright, I've given the wine as a gift.

And we've seen each other.

I hope

you'll enjoy your wedding.

Madam.

The guests have left.

But I can't find Mr. Jiang.

He must have gone to Lady He's room.

His Highness sent me here

to win over Jiang Changyang

so that in the future

he will work for His Highness.

Tonight,

I can't just wait here for nothing.

It's been a long day.

You still have to act with me tonight.

Sorry about that.

Without me,

you wouldn't have to act at all.

What's wrong?

Nothing.

Lianzhou

has married you.

Yet she's watched out for.

I had similar experiences

when I

married Liu Chang.

She is quite pitiful.

Just now at the banquet,

she was aggressive and tried to embarrass you.

Yet you were always nice.

So I realized

you had pity for her.

She is sent by Prince Ning

as a pawn to gain your favor.

I guess she can't

choose what to do herself.

Since Shengyi died,

I've figured out one thing.

All women have the same fate.

Anyway,

I'll do my best to avoid her.

If she harbors no malice,

don't be too harsh on her.

Got it.

Since you pity her,

how about you spend tonight with her?

Then I don't have to pretend anymore.

Why hasn't she come yet?

Could it be that we've misunderstood her?

Perhaps she doesn't want to marry

like me.

Here she comes.

Five black pieces.

I won.

A bet is a bet.

You take a piece of clothing.

Alright.

Darling.

Lianzhou.

What brings you here?

I've been looking for you, darling.

It's our wedding day.

We should spend tonight together.

I can't trouble Mudan to attend to you.

Darling, you're drunk.

Allow me to attend to you.

Go back to my room and rest.

I am not drunk.

I want to play a game with Mudan.

Tonight, I must beat you.

It's my turn now.

It's my turn. You just did it.

It's my turn. You watch.

Since you like it,

I will join you.

It'll be more interesting.

You know what?

I'm good at this game.

Alright.

So good.

Come on. Let's drink.

Lianzhou, are you all right?

Darling, you're drunk.

- Are you all right?
- What a dampener.

- He is going to vomit.
- Get me the spittoon.

I'm going to vomit.

Darling, come to bed.

Lianzhou, he's drunk.

You can't move him.

Be careful, this way.

This way. I can do it.

Leave it to me. Slow down.

I'm not drunk.

You lie down.

I'll be right back.

Mudan.

Even if you take care of him,

he can't do anything tonight.

Go back and get some rest.

When he's drunk, he hits people.

Come on. I'll look after him.

Come on.

Play with me.

- Mudan.
- I'm coming.

I'm coming.

Chess. Let's play.

Mr. Jiang ignores you on the first day.

What should we do?

No worries.

I have seen plenty of such dudes.

They always

have new women.

It's very normal for them.

Sooner or later he will tire of He Weifang.

Mr. Jiang

never belongs to one woman.

I'll gain a foothold

in this house after having a child.

Then, I can whisper anything

to Mr. Jiang during pillow talk

and get wealth

from him.

Compared to the short love of a man,

gold, silver, and property

make me feel secure.

Am I right?

Yes, you are.

She has left.

Not so soon.

Be careful not to alert her. Wait a bit longer.

I have something to ask you.

You have stuff to be moved
to the Fragrance Garden.

When will you do it?

Tomorrow.

I know what you're thinking.

Are you afraid

I will default on my debts and flee?

Rest assured,

I am not an ingrate.

I won't default on my debts.

She's left.

You saved me.

A single jar of Peach Blossom

is far from enough to repay you.

Though I know you lack nothing,

I still need to show my sincerity.

You have 20 percent of the revenue

from the Fragrance Garden.

This is the contract.

Take a look.

[Contract]

You're being so generous for the first time.

I'm not even used to it.

After all, my life is worth a fortune.

I have your protection now.

In fact,

I am the one who gets benefits.

Fragrance Garden is lent out

for the nobles to hold a feast and have fun.

You'll surely make a fortune.

This business is highly profitable.

Very good.

I won't do business only with the wealthy.

Either the common people

or the nobility

can enjoy the flowers, listen to music,

and drink wine

as long as they pay the entrance fee.

In Fragrance Garden,

anyone can

enjoy elegant and romantic pleasures.

What's wrong?

The Map of Fragrance Garden?

[The Map of Fragrance Garden]
The gallery and pavilion are well arranged.

The rockeries and flower clusters

are also good.

Where did you

get this?

The Superintendent of Works

owes me a favor.

He knows that we are newlyweds

and you've acquired Fragrance Garden.

So he redesigned the garden map

and sent me a copy.

Do you like it?

If you don't,

just throw it away.

Of course, I like it.

I'm so lucky to be friends

with you.

Thanks.

You just realized?

Many people are looking to befriend me.

But I don't like them.

You must cherish your chance.

Yes, sure.

I'll return to my room.

Good night.

All right, good night.

Jiang Changyang.

Thanks again.

- Here.
- I want two boxes of Rosy Rouge.

Sorry about that.

- The last two boxes.
- Sold out.

Everyone, please wait for the new stock.

My apologies, sold out.

Listen, here's the thing.

We are preparing the Fragrance Garden.

It will open next spring.

The Rosy Rouge will be available.

And we'll show various makeup.

We will arrange for skilled ladies
to try makeup on you.

- Try makeup on us?
- Yeah.

I have to wait that long.

The long-waiting guests

have benefits others don't.

At first, only 100 tickets

are for sale

at half price.

First come, first served.

- That's great.
- I want one.

You can watch flowers,

enjoy banquets, listen to music,

and learn to do makeup,

new makeup looks.

I bet you'll be

as beautiful as spring flowers.

So good.

We'll prepare Flowers Wine for everyone

to drink while you tour the garden.

You can take it home
and share it with your family.

I want two tickets.

- I want two.
- Me too.

Everyone, please go to the opposite side.

- Slow down.
- Take it easy.

It's available for all of you. No rush.

Buy tickets here.

- I want one.
- I want one.

- Line up!
- I want two tickets.

Line up, please.

Line up, please.

I want five tickets.

Previously,
due to the County Princess's influence,

these noble ladies didn't dare to come.

Finally, we've gone through a crisis.

Sure.

You and Chun manage the shop well.

Consort Shu's condition has got better.

Huamanzhu has long become famous.

Plus, our shop always has new stock and makeup.

Those noble ladies are very interested.

They know

you're close to Consort Shu.

So they don't have to
flatter the County Princess.

After all, the County Princess

can't be openly against Consort Shu, right?

If the County Princess hadn't forced me
to go to the polo field,

I wouldn't have met Consort Shu.

It's a happy surprise.

Madam, I want three tickets.

Here are you.

I'm happy to be your neighbor.

You've left for your ambition.

I hope you'll take care

and think of your old home

now and again.

[Jiang Changyang]

[To Mudan]

You've been gone for a long time.

Why did you suddenly appear?

Mudan thought

about when you would come back.

She has prepared dried fish for you

in case you go hungry.

My lord.

Lady He hasn't returned.

She has sent someone

to move out her stuff.

She is renovating the garden

and needs to decorate it with rocks.

I found her a piece

of good stone as tall as a person.

It will be delivered later.

Tomorrow,

you send this letter to Fragrance Garden

together with that stone

as my gift to her.

Yes.

My lord.

Since you don't want her to leave,

why not ask her to stay?

A cat

longs for freedom.

Then what reason do I have to keep Mudan?

But you've never been

so attached to anyone else.

How come you came back?

After I decided on the flowers
to plant in the Fragrance Garden,

I came back.

Where should I go?

I thought you were moving
to the Fragrance Garden.

This house is almost emptied out.

Fu has moved there to manage the garden.

I'll stay here.

I just planted new begonias.

I promised you

to make your backyard full of flowers.

What? Am I bothering you?

No.

Mr. Jiang doesn't want you--

I don't want to lose a money spinner.

Fu advised me

to move over with her.

I thought about it.

However…

We're faking a marriage.

If I leave you alone

to deal with Lianzhou,

I'll be unrighteous.

Anyway,

what flowers

do you want to plant next spring?

I need to start cultivating them now.

Let me know once you've decided.

After doing my things

in the Fragrance Garden,

I'll come over in the evening

to help you with the planting.

All right.

Let me think.

Tomorrow,

Chuanyu will tell you.

Go burn the letter.

What letter? Someone wrote a letter?

How come I didn't know?

What letter? Someone wrote a letter?

He and I were talking about something else.

Your begonias are quite nice.

You move some of them to my courtyard.

I don't think

you match begonias.

You better drop the idea.

Why?

The begonias

mean a secret crush.

Do you have a crush on anyone?

But you've never been

so attached to anyone else.

♫ If the heart is like frost ♫

♫ Congealing so much of the past ♫

Mudan.

♫ Melting and flowing with you ♫

There's something on your nose.

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

♫ Can it ♫

Why didn't you tell me earlier?

♫ Clouds are hidden by night ♫

♫ Fleecy clouds in the sky ♫

♫ Seeking a place to rest ♫

♫ The moon falls on my shoulder,
a path of dim yellow ♫

[Liu Mansion]

Stop.

Mr. Liu.

Mr. Liu.

Mr. Liu.

I made a mistake before

and offended you.

I'm truly sorry for that.

I have elderly parents

and children to support.

Please show my mercy.

and spare me.

Prefect Ge.

I don't understand

what you're talking about.

You were punished and lost your position

for the guilt of corruption
and neglect of duty.

That's fair and just.

What does it have to do with me?

Mr. Liu.

Please.

Please spare me.

Give me a chance.

I can do anything

to repay your kindness.

If you think so,

can you drink up the dirty water

from the stable's trough?

From now on, eat and live

in a stable.

If you can do that,

I may recommend you

for a position

as a low-ranking official tending to horses.

Mr. Liu.

Mr. Liu.

Mr. Liu.

It's rare for you to come back.

You even personally cooked.

Thank you.

Well,

if it weren't for my birthday,

I'm afraid he would have forgotten this home.

Father, you're wrong.

I have married into Prince Ning's home.

So I only have Prince Ning's Mansion
as my home.

I can't often come here.

That day,

I didn't abandon you.

When facing an emergency,

I had no choice at all.

Now that you've got married,

can't you stop holding a grudge?

As long as you

please the County Princess,

high-ranking positions

and wealth will come.

Zishu.

Your father has figured out a way.

We will find you two pretty women

and keep them here.

When they bear children,

the children are raised in a remote place.

Even though Prince Ning has immense power,

he will die one day.

After that,

you can come back home

and live with us again.

Don't talk about it again.

Father, mother,

have you ever regarded me as a human

who feels happy

and sad?

We gave birth to you and raised you.

We provided you with good clothes and food.

To survive

and get wealthy,

you gave me to Prince Ning.

When my leg was broken,

where were you?

When I stopped eating in the dungeon
to resist marriage,

where were you then?

When you accepted the dowry from Prince Ning,

I was even less free

than your dog.

Zishu, how could you--

- Zishu.
- What you want is a high-ranking son.

But I don't

want unfeeling

and irresponsible parents.

Liu Shen, are you alright?

You just enjoyed the food.

Guess what you ate?

It was crushed,

just like what you did to me.

You'll never forget this taste,

will you?

Madam.

Madam, wake up.

Knock.

Madam.

You are already the owner of a garden

and two shops.

Why are you tending to the fields
and weeding personally?

Take a break.

You know what?

I am from Luoyang.

But when my mother was pregnant with me

and came to Chang'an to visit relatives,

she gave birth to me prematurely.

I was born in Fragrance Garden.

I never heard of it.

It is fate.

In my childhood, my mother often

took me to Chang'an to visit relatives.

We spent a long time

in this garden.

Back then,

all the peonies in this garden

were cultivated by my mother and me together.

And this tree as well.

Later on,

my father's business grew larger

and my parents got busy.

Moreover, my grandmother died.

So we did not often come here.

The child grows up

as the parents age.

It seems to happen in an instant.

Since my mother died,

everything has changed.

Fortunately, this tree is still here,

isn't it?

When it was planted,

it was not even half as tall as me.

But now,

it's thriving.

You are doing well now.

Your mother will be happy

about it.

Well, anyway,

tonight let me help you

hoe the soil.

Have you ever done that?

Do you know how to use a hoe?

Don't underestimate me.

What's so hard about hoeing?

Alright, show me.

You're pretty strong.

What did you hit?

What's that?

Be careful.

May my daughter Weifang

have a good husband

and be happy.

My mother did it.

She buried it for me.

My mother said

my grandmother

buried a jar of wine

in the Fragrance Garden for her at her birth.

I never expected my mother
to have buried one for me too.

I think she wanted

to drink it with me

when I got married.

Sadly…

Don't be sad.

We've just gotten married.

We found this wine at the right time.

So,

your mother is watching.

She let me, her son-in-law,

dig up the wine.

Son-in-law?

What cheek.

Anyway,

we have to

drink this wine.

It's leaking.

No, we can't waste it.

Get a bowl.

Here it is.

Easy, pour it slowly.

Don't waste it.

Let me give you some.

Is it still leaking?

Pour it carefully.

Don't…

I'm drinking like this.

My mother left this wine for me.

You can't drink it all. Give it back to me.

Isn't it a wedding wine?

Give it back to me.

The bride can't drink it alone.

Give it back to me.

Don't drink it all.

Don't drink it up.

Give it back to me. I'm serious.

My mother left it for me. Don't drink it all.

- Okay.
- Be careful not to spill it.

Put it here.
