EPISODE 18

Who would have thought
Mr. Du was such a person?

Completely ruined Shouhua.

Such a good lady.

Deqing.

Kangning left something behind
when she left.

Go fetch it.

Yes.

What's this?

The Minister's son-in-law has come
to deliver a wedding invitation?

Wedding invitation?

Got rid of the wife of humble origin.

You will soon marry
the Minister's precious daughter.

Being victorious in the officialdom.

In the bridal chamber,
you are a groom once more.

There is a smooth and broad path
ahead of you.

It can be said
to have fulfilled a lifelong ambition.

BLESSING FROM HEAVEN

Congratulations.

Chai,

my mother has lived in the Li family
for a long time. The clothes, food,

and money sent over
were all returned exactly as they were.

Would you trouble yourself

to pass the silver to Shouhua?

She won't accept your things.

That's her integrity.

I cannot ruin her principles.

No matter how poor the Li family may be,

they could still support one person.
Even if the Li family can't,

I am still here.

I definitely won't let her be angered
to death by that un-filial son.

So, there's no need for you
to trouble yourself.

Shouhua.

-How is she?
-Du Yangxi.

Even now, I still can't understand.

With your talent and ability, you would
have had your day of great success.

Why in such a hurry

to give up your wife
and go to the Yu family?

Could wealth and riches
move your heart so easily?

It's just that you've misjudged me.

I have always been someone
who chases fame and fortune,

an ungrateful villain.

Shouhua is beautiful, smart,
talented, and virtuous.

Although we were only together
for a short three months,

it was the greatest blessing of my life.

Ultimately, I am without conduct
and virtue, unworthy of her.

Today, I have come to you

with only one thing to ask.

You are the third-ranked scholar.

A future distinguished guest
of Minister Yu's.

An esteemed standing
before the officialdom.

Too many people want to flatter you.

There's no need to seek help
from a businessman like me.

You are overestimating me.

Chai,

those who flatter and fawn,

I disdain to associate with them.

But now that it's come to this point,
my mother refuses to acknowledge me.

Even my sworn brothers
want to cut ties with me.

In this vast world,
I find no kin upon looking up

and no longer
have anyone reliable to trust.

Chai,

please help me.

-Say it.
-The words I speak tonight

leave my mouth and enter your ears

with no third person hearing.

Even if it's your beloved wife,

you must not reveal
even a single word to her.

Chai, can you do it?

After it's done,

I'll still trouble you

to collect my remains, arrange my burial,

and settle my spirit.

Look at this. It's really beautiful.

This is also beautiful.

Shouhua, look at these mandarin ducks.

They're just like the real ones.

Fuhui,

look at these twin babies on this sieve.

What a good omen.

Indeed, well-made.

How much for this sieve?

Thirty-five coins.

Take another look at the floater.

The Cowherd and the Weaving Maiden,
only 15 coins.

-It's the First Lady from the Li Family.
-Everyone says a virtuous wife is good.

It can't compare to a rich
and honored future.

Even great benevolence is discarded.

How pitiful.

I'm feeling dizzy from the heat.
I'll wait for you in the carriage.

Shouhua.

Shouhua has such a strong-willed nature.

How can she tolerate idle gossip?

Even it doesn't reach her ears,

a bit of wind would make her nauseate.

The faithless one remarries in splendor.

Yet Shouhua hides and skulks around.

Truly infuriating.

Shouhua's skin is not as thick as yours.

People's words are truly fearsome.

My lady.

What are you doing here?

I'll call for help.

I followed the Li family's carriage from
a distance just to return an old item.

Now that you've returned it, leave.

I know that matchmakers
have visited the Li family again.

Those who have approached the Li family
are all not from good families.

That Mr. Zhao from Lushi Street
has a favored maid at home.

His wife hung herself out of anger.

He is now hastily seeking a new wife
to cover the scandal.

And there's the son from the Liu family

who failed the exams multiple times.

Seeing me pass the exam after marriage,

he hopes you could help him
pass the imperial examination as well.

My lady.

None of these people are worth entrusting.

I hope you won't make a mistake.

Du Yangxi,

my thoughts were misguided.

A lifetime vow, to be
forever intertwined like water plants.

I will follow you through water
and stay with you through fire.

I know you have
a dangerous task to undertake.

Can I accompany you?

If you had spoken
these words to me sooner,

I would have been so happy.

It's just this time,

I can't take you with me.

The words I just spoke,
I hope you will remember them.

If you don't allow me to follow you,

then let me help you.

A climber of the powerful,

disrespectful, un-filial,
unfaithful, and fickle.

A man who divorces and remarries.

How dare you
rashly critique my marriage affairs?

Even if I choose any one of the illiterate
peddlers or servants to marry

once I leave this street, I'd still be 100
times better than you, a faithless man.

Since we are already divorced,

we have no further entanglements.

Please step aside quickly.

Don't block my way.

Go on then. Don't bring bad luck.

Let's go.

My lord.

We are soon to be one family.

There's no need for such formalities.

Yuanming.

Please sit.

Serve the tea.

Have all the matters at home
been properly dealt with?

I heard that Lady Li
is both beautiful, talented,

virtuous, and good-mannered.

You were a harmonious and happy couple.

Sadly, my daughter is willful
and my spouse indulges her,

leading to complications
at a critical moment and leaving regrets.

Now that things have come to this,
do you harbor any resentment, Yuanming?

I am but a humble scholar who has received
your grace without being forsaken.

To marry your beloved daughter, it must be
predestined affinity from a previous life,

only to rectify errors in this life.

Since it is the will of heaven
and cannot be defied,

how dare I hold any grudges?

You have really been wronged.

Please sit down.

This matter has caused you and your mother
to turn against each other.

It also causes me much unease.

After all, in this world,
it's common to change wives,

but who has ever heard of someone
changing their own mother?

Moreover, she is your stepmother
who has shown you great kindness.

My wife is short-sighted.
You cannot comply with her in everything.

If your stepmother
refuses to attend the ceremony,

you must still kneel and entreat again.
Only then would it be proper filial piety.

Yes.

I will prudently follow your instruction.

Your stepmother saved my life.

She nurtured a person to be capable.

She is generous and righteous.

She is truly an exemplary model for women.

After you get married,
you should also bring her here.

Honor her even more
than your birth mother.

I shall also request her as a Noble Lady

as recompense for her kindness

and illuminating your virtue.

In the future, it will certainly
be a beautiful story among people.

Sir, you deeply understand righteousness.

I am moved to tears with gratitude.

I thank you profoundly
on behalf of my stepmother.

Still so aloof.

I pay my respects to Mr. Taishan.

You may stand up.

That's more like it.

Get out.

All sorts of disreputable people
come to propose marriage.

It dirties my mouth even to speak of it.

Go. Don't come knocking at my door again.

You don't know what's good for you.

What do you think
all my hardships have been for?

Is it not because I pity your daughter
who was abandoned?

Take the chance while you're young
and people still propose.

Wait until you're old and not attractive.

Even you pay a huge dowry
to be a stepmother,

no one will want you.

You stink like dog fart.

You're helping those scoundrels
to cheat my daughter.

You're still spouting nonsense?

If I don't tear your mouth apart,

you think I am soft, don't you?

-Stop. I'm going to tear your mouth.
-Mother.

These people talk in a misleading way.
Concealing the bad without mentioning it.

-Don't get angry.
-We don't need you to propose.

She's shaming you to your face.

Do you think you're an immortal?

Picked up a third-ranked scholar, your
ancestral grave emitting green smoke!

There's not another Jinshi
in the world for you to choose.

You gossip monger, dare to say
another word and see what happens.

I'll hit you.

Throw her out.

-Get out!
-Leshan.

I'd like to see

what kind of good son-in-law you can find.

Don't come back later begging me.

Tofu that's stewed until mushy
can't hold its shape.

Who's there?

Mr. Sang,
your timing is quite coincidental.

About Officer Liu's
granddaughter last time…

Madam Li, I've come in person

to propose marriage to Shouhua.

By doing this, you're deliberately making
it difficult for me, like the outsiders.

Before coming here,
I visited my foster mother.

Come.

Let me do it.

Listen to what they're saying inside.

Go.

-What did they say?
-They didn't speak.

-What do you mean?
-When I went inside,

I just gave them the two bowls of water.
I nodded and came out.

I want to listen too.

I asked my foster mother
about proposing to the Li family,

whether it would violate morality.

But my foster mother said…

He and you have long been
separated by the end of an obligation.

He and she are also separated
as a broken mirror and a halved hairpin.

If your two families are to be united,
whose principles would be violated?

And what morality
would it be going against?

I can get medical treatments

and food, all thanks to Shouhua.

If she doesn't get married,

in my heart,

shame and resentment
are hard to dissipate.

The illness gets worse day by day.

For the sake of me, this blind old woman,
and for her own sake,

I hope Shouhua doesn't waste the prime of
her life because of that un-filial child.

My mother-in-law has her insight.

But I have my own opinion.

If Mr. Sang wants to show pity,

there is no need to go this far.

No, it's not that.

I've said this to Yuanming,
but not everything.

I had planned to bury it
deep in my heart for life.

Never expected heaven to show mercy.

There's still a day
to confess my feelings to you.

Can't hear clearly.
What are they actually talking about?

I don't know.

-Mom, did you hear anything?
-No.

He's the new Jinshi
who just received the title of Archivist.

Absolutely must not miss him.

It's driving me mad.

Just accept him.

I accept you on behalf of Shouhua.

The marriage is settled.

Mother.

-Thank you, madam.
-No need to thank.

Shouhua.

This, this.

And this, and that.

-Put them all away.
-Okay.

What are you doing?

Our new brother-in-law
is not an ordinary person.

Shouhua, you can't wear makeup anymore.

Be careful
that he can't stand the fragrance.

Even you are teasing me.

I can no longer stay in this house.

Mom is preparing a banquet for
the future brother-in-law. I'll go help.

Shouhua.

Although it's said that when remarrying
one can decide for oneself.

But with Mom's hard attitude,
who can dissuade her?

Moreover, Mr. Sang is an upright person
with a distinguished appearance.

And he's just been granted
an honorable position.

Everyone outside praises him.
The Li family's fortune is turning around.

This is a great blessing.

It's a pity that…

-What?
-You are unwilling to marry him.

Kangning. Do you still remember
that small portrait before?

Was it the one that ended up
in the hands of Master Yang

and brought a calamity to the Li family?

It was a fortuitously acquired
portrait from beyond this world.

I never leave it by my side, ever.

It was later taken away by a profligate.
I was still full of regrets.

Who would have known, that winter,

the paper beauty transformed into
a virtuous lady, appearing before my eyes.

How numerous are the strange
happenings in this world?

Having lost the paper beauty,

yet gained a real wife.

After all the twists and turns,
it still belongs to him.

It shows that the will of heaven
cannot be defied.

Shouhua, I see this time,

even if you don't want to marry,
it won't work out.

I will not marry.

Something happened, Shouhua!

Madam Du had a phlegm seizure and fainted.

Madam.

She can't swallow a single sip.

Wasn't it said that
she was getting better yesterday,

that she was able
to get out of bed and walk around?

Why has she fainted again?

Have you been careless
in looking after her?

How would I dare to be?

It was just a slip of the tongue.

That's good news.

Was it about Shouhua's betrothal?

No, it's not.

It's the good news of Mr. Du's
impending marriage.

Upon hearing it,
Madam Du's face turned red.

She fainted in a fit of rage.

Madam Du still means well.

She is still indignant
on our family's behalf.

Such a pitiable sight.

Mother, are you alright?

Mother.

Are you okay, madam?

This…

This doesn't seem to be a phlegm seizure.

It looks like a stroke.

Sangma, you hurry

and call the physician.

Yes.

It's as if she has something

important to say.

Mother, what do you want to say?

Cannot…

Cousin, let's go.

YU RESIDENCE

Why did you drag me here?

Today's Mr. Du's wedding.
The Yu family has laid out a grand feast.

Scholars and nobles fill the hall.
A grand event in the capital.

-Don't you want to see the excitement?
-What's so exciting about it?

-I'll leave.
-Cousin.

He even dared to send us an invitation.

If we don't show,
won't it seem we're afraid?

We must go.

-Come on.
-Let go.

Cousin.

This time, our daughter
finally gets what she wishes.

It's all thanks to you.

My lord, madam.

The auspicious time has arrived.

Please, the newlyweds come forward
to perform the ceremony.

It has begun.

Here they come.

A match of mythical birds,
a union made by heaven.

The newlyweds
first bow to heaven and earth.

This groom is so overjoyed
that he's all flustered.

Mr. Du, they're calling you
to bow to heaven and earth.

Exactly.

-Bow now.
-The groom is stunned.

Yes.

He's shy.

First bow to heaven and earth.

-What is this?
-Huh?

What on earth is this decorum?

Cousin, what's wrong with him?

Let's wait and see.

Mr. Du, what's happened?

I should indeed
pay my respects to the Minister.

Please accept Du Yangxi's three bows.

A lone humble scholar,
granted an official post.

All thanks to the Minister's promotion.

This first bow

is to Minister Yu's
generous recommendation.

Deeply grateful for this acquaintance.
I'm endlessly thankful.

My worthy son-in-law.

If you pay respects for your
father-in-law's favor,

a bow in the rear hall will suffice.

Where is it heard of leaving behind
the bride and guests

to bow alone here?

What are you trying to do?

The Minister has not only
lifted up this humble scholar,

but he bestowed his daughter in marriage.

Regrettably, I already have a wife.
I truly dare not accept the order.

Despite repeated polite refusals,
the Yu family stubbornly disallows.

Today, I have no choice but to
address it and offer my bows in farewell.

I have but limited abilities

and certainly cannot take lady Yu as wife.
I ask for your understanding, sir.

Du Yangxi, this is too much.

How can coercing into marriage
be acceptable?

Now this is just great.
How will the Yu family deal with this?

The daughter of Minister in marriage,
how is it coercion? It's clearly an honor.

Watch. Minister won't let him off easily.

This matter is not so simple.
Hold your tongue.

Mother.

-Mother.
-Don't be anxious.

Look.

Father.

Du Yangxi's refusal in the main hall
is immoral and disgraceful behavior.

Your daughter has been humiliated.

Father, you must
stand up for your daughter.

Du Yangxi.

Calm down.

I have my own plan.

Just now, Mr. Du said
there are three bows, right?

Then, what is the third bow for?

Our body and hair,
received from our parents.

The kindness of giving life,
as an ocean, is impossible to repay.

With this bow, I express my gratitude

for the benevolence
of being raised by my birth father.

What?

Birth father?

Birth father?

What did he say?

Who is his birth father?

Since when did Minister Yu
become his birth father?

Is this true or false?

Am I dreaming right now?

What nonsense are you talking about?

Who is your birth father?

Who are you?

Wasn't it said to be
the best physician in Bianjing?

Wasn't it guaranteed
to show improvement within three days?

It's been several times already.

But there's still no sign of improvement.

Mother.

This illness did not come about suddenly.

Coming three times costs a string.

A string of coins

is like a bottomless pit.
I can't hear any sound at all.

Madam.

She's awake now.

I heard the sound now.

May the Bodhisattva bless us.

-Mother.
-Thank you for the Bodhisattva's blessing.

Thank you, Bodhisattva.

I heard the sound. Thank you, Bodhisattva.

Thank you, Bodhisattva.

Thank you.

This is the medicine.
Take it with boiled water.

How much does it cost again?

-I don't want money.
-You don't?

Then give me a few more.

Thank you. Thank you so much.

See the physician out.

Thank you.

-Mother.
-This way.

I'm right here.

What do you want to say?

He is a biological child…

He can't…

What did you say?

Yu Weiyi.

Are you saying

Mr. Du is the biological son
of Minister Yu?

What?

Maid.

Quick. Help the young lady back first.

Hurry.

Mother.

Father.

Go quickly.

Knowing the Minister's
kindness and righteousness,

you shouldn't slander without evidence.

What about a third-ranked scholar?

Full of nonsense, completely ignorant
of propriety and righteousness.

Every word is wildly absurd.

It's simply unheard of.

Throw this madman out for me.

You…

Whether it's slander or not,
let's hear him out.

Why so terrified?

Could it be that the Yu family
really has something indecent

and dare not let the guests present know?

Exactly. Not letting one finish speaking,

isn't that a sign of guilt?
You can silence just one person's mouth,

but can you silence
the murmuring mouths here?

Where did these madmen come from?

Someone, throw them out.

Hurry. Tie them up.

Who dares?

Stop, all of you.

I have lived a life
of integrity and honesty

without guilt before heaven and earth.

Nothing shameful to hide from others.

Before I achieved success,

I had a first wife.

Unfortunately, she passed away early

and left no children.

Mr. Du repeatedly calls me father.

There must be some misunderstanding.

Thank you for your help.

However, this is something only I can do.

Please, Mr. Chai and Mr. Fan,

be witnesses for me.

Alright.

Twenty-eight years ago, a father and
daughter lived in Jiangling Prefecture,

making a living by running a pharmacy.

They also had
a few dozen acres of farmland.

They led a fairly decent life.

That winter,

Mr. Xie carried back a destitute scholar
in the snowstorm.

Young man, are you alright?

Sir?

They fed him food, provided
medical treatment, and saved his life.

XIE QIUFANG

This young man, having lost
both parents, had nowhere to turn to.

Mr. Xie didn't mind his poverty,

treated him as his own son.

Even married
his only daughter Qiufang to him.

The couple were affectionate
and in harmony.

A beautiful pair, a perfect match.

And they were extremely filial
to their father.

Unfortunately, heaven was not kind.

The following year
brought a devastating flood.

The villages and farmlands,
all waterlogged.

Mr. Xie, stricken with
sudden rage and angst, passed away.

Fortunately, Xie's daughter
was virtuous, smart, and skillful.

She wove day and night without rest

and urged her husband to study hard.

To raise funds
for the examination expenses,

she did not hesitate
to sell herself as a maid for three years

for the price of 120 strings.

-Everyone, please disperse.
-Please, go back.

-This way, please.
-Shall we leave?

-Please return.
-Take care.

-Let's go.
-Let's leave first.

Sorry for the inadequate hospitality.

Master Liu.

Master Li.

Master Wang.

Go out and wait for me.

You go out too.

I wonder

where did you learn all this?

Okay.

Mr. Du.

I have never wronged her.

After winning the imperial examination,

I rushed back
to my hometown without stopping.

Finally, the couple was reunited.

After hardship comes happiness.

You have never failed Xie Qiufang.

Then how did she die?

That year, my lord
completed his term in Luzhou.

Xie accompanied him
to take up his post in Chizhou.

They encountered a storm on the way,

and Xie accidentally
fell into the water and died.

She had a short-lived fate.

Unfortunately, she met with this disaster.

Wasn't Xie Qiufang
pushed into the water by you?

What are you saying?

Isn't it so?

Back then,
when you were in office in Luzhou,

you cleared longstanding corruption
and released the innocent.

You aided the needy
with great political achievements.

You were to be called back to the capital.

Later, you were demoted
from Wangzhou to Shangzhou

because you refused a proposal
after your success in the exams.

You offended Liang Zhen.

Less than half a year
after the death of Xie,

you married a lady from the Liang family
and moved back to the capital soon after.

Since then, you have had
a smooth and rapidly rising career.

You have no proof
and are recklessly speculating.

If it spreads, how will outsiders
view the Yu and Liang families?

My Lord, you cannot allow him
to be presumptuous any longer.

It's nothing.

Why should I fear things
I have never done?

My father-in-law
has shown me deep kindness.

Qiufang was also deeply affectionate.

I reminisce
about my late wife with affection.

My resolve has not changed.

Heaven and earth
are witnesses to the truth.

I disdain to confess to a simpleton.

Rather, it is you, Du Yangxi.

You spout nonsense
and slander to the utmost.

What exactly is your purpose?

That's because you thought Xie was dead.

You think there is no witness
under heaven.

However, the way of heaven is clear,
retribution is certain.

Xie Qiufang sold herself as a maid.

At the Liu family,
she met a maid named Qian'er.

She saw that Qian'er was often humiliated.

When she left the Liu family,
she took Qian'er with her.

That night, Qian'er was also on the boat.

She heard a noise outside,

so she jumped down to save Xie.

Poor her, being small and weak,
how could she manage to save anyone?

The two were washed ashore by the waves.

From then on,
they became drifters in a foreign land.

Are you saying

Qiufang is still alive?

Then where is she now?

Is she doing well?

Xie Qiufang is already
three months pregnant.

The two temporarily
live in a small temple,

living by begging for food.

Months later, she gave birth to a son.

Xie passed away due to a serious illness.

It was the righteous maid Qian'er
who painstakingly raised the baby.

Could it be that you

are my son?

That's impossible.

Qiufang never mentioned it to me.

Seeing you repeatedly suppressed

in your official career,

fretting all day long,

she didn't tell you these things.

If we are indeed father and son by blood,

why didn't you tell me earlier?

You kept me in such painful ignorance.

Do you still remember

the scene of my mother
falling into the water?

I braved the wind and waves to rush over.

My lord.

I wanted to save Qiufang.

Save me.

But I couldn't do it.

My lord.

I watched helplessly
as she was swept away by the water.

Even a maid knew
to sacrifice herself to save her master.

Why couldn't a husband save his wife?

After the wind died down
and the waves subsided,

did you ever send out fishing boats
to retrieve the body?

After you were out of danger,

did you ever return along the route
to look for her,

or did you have someone
ask about her whereabouts?

That night, the storm was raging.

How could she, a frail woman, survive it?

No, you did not.

You watched her
as she was engulfed by the storm.

At that time,
you only felt relieved of a burden.

Because you were busy
trying to please the Liang family

and marry a new wife.

My foster mother, Qianniang, had someone
deliver a message to Chizhou.

But what came instead was an assassin.

In order to avoid disaster,
she chose to disfigure herself,

hiding her identity
and living in obscurity.

Didn't you see her that day as well?

Son, listen to me.

The hardships
you and your mother have suffered

are all because of the Liang family.

I did not kill your mother.

I also did not know of your existence.

Things have come to this and you still
think it's all the Liang family's fault?

Do you think
you have nothing to be blamed?

What wrong have I done?

Do you know

years of hard study

and achieving an official position
through hardships

is all for your mother's sake?

I was willing to offend the Liang family.

No matter how good I had been,

I was still demoted again and again.

Villages and towns under my rule
suffered locust plagues.

I requested six times
to open the granary for relief,

all obstructed by the Liang family.

Involving so many innocents,

how could I bear it in my heart?

Furthermore,

you blame me
for remarrying into the Liang family.

But whom else could I blame?

I can only blame the heavens
for being unjust to me.

My lord.

Is it you?

Who has been inciting you?

For so many years,

my foster mother
has sealed her lips tightly,

unwilling to reveal
my biological father's name.

Before I went to take the exams,

she even forced me to take an oath.

Even if we, father and son, meet again,

we shall act as strangers.

But there are a few words

I have no choice but to say on behalf of
my deceased maternal grandfather.

Twenty years ago,

the Liang family
relied on their power to oppress others

and forced you into marriage.

Twenty years later,

you willfully abused your power

and enticed me with benefits.

As the leader among the literati
and a mainstay of the imperial court,

yet you rely on your power
and betray the Emperor's grace.

This is disloyalty.

Mr. Xie

saved your life from the snowstorm

and even regarded you as his own child,

entrusting his only daughter
and estate to you.

But you were ungrateful
and forgetful of kindness.

You have betrayed a heavy trust.
This is un-filiality.

Xie Qiufang toils day and night,
supporting her husband for the exams.

Yet you abandoned her without a thought.

Setting aside your wife to remarry.
This is inhumanity.

As a father,

you failed to raise your son

and let him suffer hardships.
This is injustice.

Shut up.

You acknowledge me in the hall today

just to challenge your own father?

I do not wish to embarrass you.

It's just that as a son,

I have to ask you something on behalf

of my deceased mother once again.

What is it?

Oh, Yu.

On a snowy night,

the Xie family used a bowl of hot soup

to save a stranger.

But in the torrential river,

why were you unwilling

to save your wife

who has been
through thick and thin with you?

My lord.

I was just about to call someone
to rush to the Yu house.

Where is Mr. Du?

It's too late.

Too late? What do you mean "too late"?

Everything is too late.

My lady, Du Yuanming
has gone to the Kaifeng Court

to submit a complaint
and also to turn himself in.

Before my mother died,

she only left one sentence.

Oh, Yu.

On a snowy night,

the Xie family used a bowl of hot soup

to save a stranger.

But in the torrential river,

why were you unwilling

to save your wife

who has been
through thick and thin with you?

My lord.

Just a step away.

I could have grasped her hand.

I could have saved her.

Why did I hesitate at the last moment?

Why?

My lord, such big storm,

even the boatman met his end
in the belly of the fish,

let alone Xie Qiufang.

You have personally experienced dangers

and barely survived.

Being able to preserve your life

is already the blessing of heaven.

Why torment yourself?

I ask you.

The storm was an accident.

Were the assassins
sent by the Liang family also an accident?

My lord.

That Mr. Du is brainwashed by someone

and even dares to question
his own father publicly.

You don't teach your son properly

but blame your wife.

I am just a woman
who does not step out of the house.

Where can I go to hire a killer?

And I still suffer this injustice.

Whether it is or is not,

you know in your heart.

I have already submitted my resignation.

From now on, I will resign
and return to my hometown,

far from the court.

It cannot be.

My lord, you are
an important official in court.

How can you simply abandon your position?

You can't do this.

Then you tell me.
Why did he choose the wedding day

to reveal everything under heaven?

I understand now.

He had premeditated.

He wanted to make a public spectacle

and completely destroy the Yu family.

My lord, there must be a way.

Yes, he claims to be
the son of the Xie family.

But 20 years have passed,

and who can testify now?

As for that blind old beggar woman,
silencing her won't be difficult.

My lord,
we can't just sit and wait for doom.

I am just a woman.

Returning home is not impossible.

But my heartfelt speech is all for you.

In your purple robe and golden belt,
you are favored by the emperor.

How can you let a little brute
destroy everything, my lord?

To plead his mother's grievances,

he would rather sacrifice his own career.

Do you think he will give you

a way out?

I'm afraid
he has already gone to the court.

The paper from the Kaifeng Court

will soon be presented to the emperor.

Even if I don't take
the initiative to resign,

I'd be too ashamed
to remain at the heart of the court.

I advise you

not to bring shame upon yourself.

Furthermore,

it is I who will resign and return home.

As for you and your daughter,

you should take care of yourselves.

My lord, my lord.

My lord.

My lord.

My lord.

Yu Weiyi.

Who do you think you are?

Ungrateful
and abandoning your lawful wife.

It's all because of me

that you have high rank.

Now you regret and feel guilty.

Who are you putting on this act for?

Disgusting.

I dare to admit my own shamelessness.

Do you dare?

You're just a good-for-nothing.

Mom.

Mom.

Mom, what's wrong?

That Du has insulted me too much.

Father is now
the most esteemed among officials.

How can Du to be so presumptuous?

We must report to Ministry of Personnel
to dismiss him from his position.

Never let him serve
in office again till death.

And that Li family.

If I'd known today would've happened,

I would've let you do as you pleased,
to go hang yourself.

It's all over now.

It's all done.
