00:00:00We'll be heard.
00:00:12Han Chang, were you calling me?
00:00:17I'm fine, your highness. Do you need anything, your highness?
00:00:21Ah, it's nothing urgent. I just wanted to check. Are you doing all right?
00:00:25All is well. No need to worry.
00:00:27I can't rest easy. Let me come in and check.
00:00:32Really, I'm fine.
00:00:34Very well.
00:00:41Who's there?
00:00:43We, the Bayman clan, once dwelled deep in the mountains and lived in peaceful seclusion.
00:00:47Two years ago, officers accused us of crimes and slaughtered our kin.
00:00:52That day, elders fell in bloodshed, women and children wailed.
00:00:55The mountains ran red with blood.
00:00:57I survived, only to discover, my sister still lives.
00:01:01Sister, save me.
00:01:01Imprisoned in the ghost bureau.
00:01:03Tonight, I'll bathe the bureau in blood and free her from this hell.
00:01:08You dare trespass here, you see death.
00:01:10Assassin Cold Cicada, you invade the ghost bureau.
00:01:16What brings you here?
00:01:19Enough talk, my sister Yenor. Is she your prisoner?
00:01:35What brings you here?
00:01:36Enough talk, my sister Yenor. Is she your prisoner?
00:01:45This is Yenor's jade pendant.
00:01:47It's Yenor's jade.
00:02:02Kneel.
00:02:14It's you. You are the second prince.
00:02:21Not just you. In this vast world, who could have guessed the shadow bureau his majesty fears most was actually established by your highness?
00:02:29You. Recognize me?
00:02:32All Vyman men have been slaughtered. How should we handle the remaining captives? Your orders, your highness.
00:02:41Don't be afraid, Yenor. I'll rescue you tonight.
00:02:46Yes.
00:02:47The blood debt of my annihilated clan. I'll never forget, even in death.
00:02:52Annihilated clan? Don't you have a younger sister?
00:02:55You fiend. What have you done to Yenor?
00:02:57Want to see her? Possible.
00:03:00But you must do something for me.
00:03:02You want me to join the shadow bureau?
00:03:05No.
00:03:06I need you to infiltrate Prince Ning's manor.
00:03:09Seduce Yihui-jin for me.
00:03:11Help me claim the crown prince's position.
00:03:14Never.
00:03:16A seven-year-old girl.
00:03:19Must be quite delicate.
00:03:20Why choose me?
00:03:23Because Yihui-jin's mother, like you, was from the Baimang clan.
00:03:28So you plan to use me all along?
00:03:30Exactly.
00:03:31Two years ago, your highness placed Yanga in shadow bureau, anticipating you'd come searching.
00:03:36Even if I agree.
00:03:37How could I approach Yihui-jin?
00:03:39I've heard Prince Ning's manor is recruiting maids recently.
00:03:49Applying to be a maid.
00:03:50Must pass a talent test first.
00:03:52There are a total of 17 medicinal herbs here.
00:03:55Select appropriate ingredients to prepare a summer tonic for heat relief.
00:04:00May I check your pulse, my lady?
00:04:20Two chien of lobelia.
00:04:22Three chien of poria.
00:04:23One chien each of licorice and dang.
00:04:25Eight chien of coptus.
00:04:27Five chien of rhubarb.
00:04:28One and a half chien of trachosants.
00:04:31What's your opinion, Master Pan?
00:04:33Though I'm a musician, I know lycopodium and borneal are effective cooling agents.
00:04:38Since you omitted these, how can her highness keep you?
00:04:43Escort her out.
00:04:44Prescriptions should be tailored.
00:04:46Her highness is with child.
00:04:48Adding lycopodium or borneal may harm the pregnancy.
00:04:54Your thoroughness surprises me.
00:04:56You flatter me, my lady.
00:04:58I merely happen to.
00:05:00Just a coincidence.
00:05:01Your ulterior motives are clear.
00:05:03This was premeditated.
00:05:05There's a misunderstanding.
00:05:06I mean no harm, my lady.
00:05:08During the pulse check, I noticed the calluses on your fingertips.
00:05:12These are marks of martial arts training.
00:05:15Who sent you?
00:05:16Speak.
00:05:17Who sent you here?
00:05:18Speak.
00:05:19Your highness.
00:05:20In my youth, my family suffered misfortune.
00:05:23I was forced into the brothel.
00:05:25These calluses on my hands come from years of gucci practice.
00:05:29Very well.
00:05:30Since you claim musical mastery, let Master Pan thoroughly examine your skills.
00:05:35How can this melody resemble my late mothers so closely?
00:05:48Could there still be Beemang tribesmen?
00:05:50You play beautifully.
00:05:56What is this composition called?
00:06:00You honor me, sir.
00:06:02This piece is from the ancient Beemang score.
00:06:04Longing in my heart.
00:06:05A heart's yearning.
00:06:06Woman, you've adorned yourself and come prepared to seduce Prince Ning.
00:06:14Your highness, this is a misunderstanding.
00:06:17I only wish to serve you, not harbor improper thoughts.
00:06:20Fine.
00:06:21Then disfigure your face and I'll let you stay.
00:06:31Stop.
00:06:36Your highness, why are you here?
00:06:51To convince you to keep her.
00:06:53She's already humiliated herself.
00:06:55To the point of ruining her appearance.
00:06:57Qing Mei, why must you push her so hard?
00:07:00Your highness, doesn't this seem suspicious?
00:07:02The Beemang clan was wiped out.
00:07:04The ancient score was lost.
00:07:06How could she play the lost melody?
00:07:09Forgive me, your highness, if I've offended you.
00:07:12Han Can will never play it again.
00:07:13It's fine.
00:07:14You play beautifully, just like my mother used to play.
00:07:18I think she has ulterior motives.
00:07:20She's trying to get close to you.
00:07:22Qing Mei, I don't believe she's that kind of person.
00:07:25Besides, you're with child.
00:07:27You need someone to care for you.
00:07:30Han Chan, thanks your highness.
00:07:33Rise quickly.
00:07:36Since you can play Longing Thoughts, are you connected to the Beemang clan?
00:07:42Your highness, I happened to hear this melody.
00:07:45Liked it so much, that I memorized it.
00:07:49Two years ago, I witnessed the Beemang massacre.
00:07:52I thought Ms. Han Can shared my experience, endured that night's events.
00:07:56Could it be, that she's the one who saved me?
00:07:59Sister, watch out, it's a trap.
00:08:01Who are you, sir?
00:08:19Why help me?
00:08:20Sister, help.
00:08:22Yenor.
00:08:23This place is dangerous.
00:08:25Leave now.
00:08:26Yenor.
00:08:26Since I've infiltrated Prince Ning's manor, your highness should honor our agreement.
00:08:36Let me see my sister.
00:08:38Your performance has been full of flaws.
00:08:41Why demand a reward?
00:08:42Why would you say that, your highness?
00:08:44When you disfigured yourself, you were too ruthless.
00:08:48After Yi Huijin saved you, you became overly eager.
00:08:53You, do you have feelings for him?
00:08:56You've been spying on me?
00:08:59I'm warning you, you belong to me alone.
00:09:02Don't dare to harbor.
00:09:05Any delusions about Yi Huijin?
00:09:06Aren't you afraid, Prince Ning's heir will threaten your succession?
00:09:12Therefore, your first task is to poison the fetus in her womb.
00:09:19I know I'm no saint, but I won't commit such an atrocity.
00:09:23Yenor.
00:09:36Yenor.
00:09:38Yenor, it's me, your sister.
00:09:42Yenor.
00:09:43Why won't you speak?
00:09:45Don't scare me like this.
00:09:47Yenor.
00:09:48What have you done to Yenor?
00:09:50The night our clan was massacred.
00:09:52Yenor was traumatized.
00:09:54For these two years, she's been mute and catatonic.
00:09:57Sustained only by Gai Sai's secret medicine.
00:10:00If you care about karma,
00:10:03then perhaps,
00:10:05I should end her suffering.
00:10:07Lay a finger on her, I dare you.
00:10:09What makes you think I won't?
00:10:15This glowing coal.
00:10:17If pressed against her skin.
00:10:19Would the pain wait?
00:10:21Stop.
00:10:22Stop.
00:10:30What?
00:10:31Changed your mind?
00:10:33You want her alive?
00:10:35Yi Hoi Jin's child.
00:10:37Must die.
00:10:43Big brother, was Yan Ega just now?
00:10:47Yenor, you've become naughty.
00:10:48You're acting and deceiving people.
00:10:50Aren't you ashamed?
00:10:51Why should I be ashamed?
00:10:53Even Butcher 2 said,
00:10:54That woman isn't a good person.
00:10:56Hey, I didn't say she wasn't good.
00:10:58I said she is.
00:10:59An assassin.
00:11:00A killer.
00:11:02Highly skilled in martial arts.
00:11:04Are assassins good people?
00:11:07Yenor, listen to your big brother.
00:11:09If she uses her blade on bad people,
00:11:11then she's a good person.
00:11:12But if she uses it on good people,
00:11:14that's different.
00:11:15But is she really my sister?
00:11:17Why can't Yan Ega remember anything?
00:11:20Good girl, Yan Ega.
00:11:22Big brother will cure your illness,
00:11:23and you'll remember everything.
00:11:25Okay, pinky promise.
00:11:27Pinky promise.
00:11:28Seal the deal.
00:11:37At our tea party today,
00:11:39I only wish to talk family,
00:11:41and not matters of state.
00:11:42You two brothers, relax.
00:11:43During the emperor's tea,
00:11:57put this packet into Qingmei's teacup.
00:12:00Or if something happens to Yan Ega,
00:12:02then don't blame me.
00:12:13Pan-chan.
00:12:15Pan-chan.
00:12:16You should try the pastries from the imperial kitchen.
00:12:19This ginseng tea,
00:12:21I'll deliver it to the princess consort.
00:12:26To save Yan Ega,
00:12:27must I obey Ye Guzen's orders,
00:12:29and sacrifice innocent children?
00:12:33No.
00:12:37Pa, are you unharmed?
00:12:40Were you injured?
00:12:41Your highness, forgive me.
00:12:42It was my carelessness.
00:12:43It's just ginseng tea.
00:12:44We'll simply prepare another.
00:12:58We are,
00:12:59growing old and frail.
00:13:01Aware our time grows short.
00:13:03We hope Gina,
00:13:04will soon father an heir.
00:13:05So we may hold our grandson.
00:13:07Ah.
00:13:08Your majesty is an excellent help,
00:13:09destined to enjoy eternal life.
00:13:11Ah.
00:13:11By your gracious words,
00:13:13Qingmei has recently,
00:13:14shown signs of pregnancy.
00:13:16What?
00:13:17Marvelous.
00:13:18Princess consort of Ning,
00:13:20is Jiner's claim truthful?
00:13:22Splendid.
00:13:23Ha ha ha.
00:13:24Jiner,
00:13:25now that you'll have an heir,
00:13:27you must act as royalty should.
00:13:28Therefore,
00:13:29we,
00:13:30shall entrust you with Jiangnan's canal tariffs.
00:13:33Whole management is yours,
00:13:34I think.
00:13:35Among all princes,
00:13:36only you can shoulder this duty.
00:13:38Ah.
00:13:38I implore your majesty to reconsider.
00:13:42I lack governance skills,
00:13:44unfit for such responsibility.
00:13:45When this decree is sealed,
00:13:47Yi Huaijin's influence grows,
00:13:49complicating our plans.
00:13:51Han Chan,
00:13:52you jeopardize our cause.
00:13:54I have my own methods.
00:13:55It's time he appeared.
00:13:58Master Pan,
00:13:59committing adultery with the princess consort,
00:14:01takes remarkable audacity.
00:14:02Lady Han Chan,
00:14:05spare our lives.
00:14:07Your death.
00:14:09For their survival.
00:14:11Your majesty,
00:14:12wait.
00:14:13Impudence.
00:14:14A mere musician,
00:14:15dares interrupt the emperor,
00:14:16seeking death?
00:14:17This lowly one deserves death.
00:14:19The child in Qing Mei's womb,
00:14:21isn't royal blood.
00:14:22But rather,
00:14:23my bastard child.
00:14:25What did you say?
00:14:27It is my own flesh and blood.
00:14:29How dare you say that?
00:14:31Qing Mai and I grew up together,
00:14:32and we pledged our love long ago.
00:14:34She had no choice,
00:14:35but to marry Prince Ning.
00:14:36Your highness,
00:14:37it's not what you think.
00:14:38Please let me explain.
00:14:39Your highness.
00:14:42A mere musician,
00:14:43defiling the royal bloodline.
00:14:45Your entire clan shall perish for this.
00:14:47But,
00:14:47we fail to comprehend,
00:14:49why you'd reveal your shame,
00:14:50at this critical moment.
00:14:52Your majesty promoted Prince Ning,
00:14:55to celebrate the royal pregnancy.
00:14:56But the child in her womb,
00:14:58he is my child.
00:14:59This humble servant,
00:15:00could no longer bear the guilt,
00:15:02kill them all.
00:15:03Show no mercy.
00:15:04Exterminate their clans.
00:15:05My life means nothing,
00:15:07but spare Qing Mai and her child.
00:15:08Grant them mercy.
00:15:10YG.
00:15:10You can't even manage household affairs.
00:15:12How can you bear national responsibilities?
00:15:14You've deeply disappointed me.
00:15:17My mission is complete.
00:15:18Yenor will be saved now.
00:15:20This isn't over yet.
00:15:21Yenor will be saved now.
00:15:22Yenor will be saved now.
00:15:23Yenor will be saved now.
00:15:24Yenor will be saved now.
00:15:25Damn.
00:15:26Disaster.
00:15:26He's trying to kill himself.
00:15:33Your highness.
00:15:34What do you mean by this?
00:15:36Father.
00:15:39Han Zhang Wu was having an affair with Qing Mai.
00:15:41An unforgivable crime.
00:15:43But I dare to ask.
00:15:44Father.
00:15:44Please spare his life.
00:15:46YG.
00:15:47Do you know what you're saying?
00:15:48What father said,
00:15:49how could I not know?
00:15:50For a moment,
00:15:51I wanted to tear them both apart,
00:15:53rip them to shreds,
00:15:54and scatter their ashes.
00:15:56But.
00:15:57Publicly.
00:15:58As a prince,
00:15:59how can I tarnish our nation's prestige?
00:16:02Privately.
00:16:03I don't know if I should say this.
00:16:05Speak.
00:16:06How deep is the courtyard?
00:16:07The parasol locks in the bleak autumn.
00:16:10Qing Mai.
00:16:11If I hadn't been burying myself in books,
00:16:13ignoring and neglecting you,
00:16:14how would you have gone so astray?
00:16:17Your highness.
00:16:18Father.
00:16:19I'm willing to give up my title.
00:16:21Please.
00:16:21Father.
00:16:22Show mercy.
00:16:23You.
00:16:24What are you saying?
00:16:25I deserve to die.
00:16:26But Prince Ning repays evil with good.
00:16:28Heaven and earth can attest to that.
00:16:29I hope your majesty,
00:16:30will uphold the original decree,
00:16:32and support Prince Ning.
00:16:34Han Jung Woo.
00:16:35You're clearly afraid of death.
00:16:37Yet you repeatedly act like,
00:16:39a generous and heroic figure.
00:16:40Do you take me for a fool?
00:16:43Or is it?
00:16:45Is someone forcing you?
00:16:48Or what?
00:16:50Is someone forcing you?
00:16:51This is the last time I'll ask,
00:16:58who exactly,
00:16:59is forcing you?
00:17:01No one is forcing me.
00:17:02It's this servant.
00:17:04My conscience bothered me.
00:17:05Conscience bothered me.
00:17:06Ha ha.
00:17:07Conscience bothered you.
00:17:09Wait, Gang Gang.
00:17:10Go.
00:17:10Help him think.
00:17:11Yes, sir.
00:17:13Go to hell.
00:17:14Your majesty.
00:17:16Please spare Qing Mai.
00:17:18It's all this servant's fault.
00:17:19It was all my doing.
00:17:23Pan Jung Woo.
00:17:24If you don't confess,
00:17:25I'll talk.
00:17:27The one who dares threaten me.
00:17:30Is exactly.
00:17:40This Pan Jung Woo.
00:17:41He was about to identify the killer,
00:17:43yet suddenly met his end.
00:17:45This was a silencing.
00:17:46How bold.
00:17:48To kill before my very eyes.
00:17:52They say,
00:17:52Jiang Hu assassins.
00:17:54Wield strange hidden weapons.
00:17:56To kill without trace.
00:17:58Though this old servant has never witnessed it.
00:18:00Then let.
00:18:01The Six Gates investigators.
00:18:03Eastern and Western agents.
00:18:04And Xinjing Bureau elites.
00:18:06Be summoned at once.
00:18:07Today.
00:18:08We'll tear this place apart.
00:18:09To root out the murderer.
00:18:11Why do you.
00:18:12Keep glancing there.
00:18:13Hiding something.
00:18:14Unworthy of life.
00:18:16Imperial father.
00:18:30Pan Jung Woo.
00:18:31Was slain by my hand.
00:18:32Pan Jung Woo.
00:18:33Was killed by me.
00:18:36You.
00:18:36Unique way.
00:18:45This is what you called.
00:18:47Leaving no trace.
00:18:49It's yours now.
00:18:50Yigutsun.
00:19:04How dare you.
00:19:06Don't air the family's dirty laundry.
00:19:08I merely helped third brother.
00:19:10Take out the trash.
00:19:12Yigutsun.
00:19:13Yigutsun.
00:19:14How could I have such a.
00:19:15Vicious child.
00:19:16Seven years ago.
00:19:17Your drunken recklessness.
00:19:19Killed the empress and consort Ling.
00:19:21Perished in the fire.
00:19:22Huy Jin.
00:19:23He knelt for three days.
00:19:24To spare your life.
00:19:26Yet now.
00:19:26You repay kindness with cruelty.
00:19:29Humiliating him.
00:19:30Three days of kneeling.
00:19:31And this is your gratitude?
00:19:33How does father know.
00:19:34The fire at Honglian temple.
00:19:36Wasn't set by Yihui Jin.
00:19:39Silence.
00:19:40Yihui Jin is consort Ling's son.
00:19:42He even defends you.
00:19:44Why harm his own mother.
00:19:45As for you.
00:19:46I've tolerated your behavior.
00:19:48Don't embarrass yourself further.
00:19:50No need for words.
00:19:51Father.
00:19:52Punish or execute me.
00:19:53I'll accept it.
00:19:54Ha ha ha.
00:19:55Who said I'll punish you.
00:19:57You've done well.
00:19:58Not only will I spare you.
00:19:59I'll reward you handsomely.
00:20:01In a few days.
00:20:02The envoy from Fengsang kingdom will soon arrive.
00:20:06I intend.
00:20:07To have Yihui Jin.
00:20:08Marry the princess of Fengsang.
00:20:10However.
00:20:11He's already wedded to princess Ning.
00:20:13This violates all propriety.
00:20:15Yet your outburst.
00:20:16Has cleared the path for me.
00:20:18Ha ha ha.
00:20:19Congratulations.
00:20:20Your majesty.
00:20:21Fengsang's military might grows.
00:20:23Their troops gather at our borders.
00:20:25Poised for invasion.
00:20:26This.
00:20:27Marriage alliance could.
00:20:29Secure our frontiers.
00:20:30And bring peace to the people.
00:20:31Hmm.
00:20:33Yihui Jin.
00:20:34Three days hence.
00:20:35You'll escort the princess into the capital.
00:20:38Seize this opportunity.
00:20:39Take this chance to bond with her.
00:20:41If.
00:20:41This alliance succeeds.
00:20:42I'll.
00:20:43Grant you command of the southern armies.
00:20:46All nine provinces.
00:20:48This.
00:20:50The southern military seal.
00:20:51Commands a million troops.
00:20:53Traditionally reserved for the crown prince.
00:20:55Your majesty places.
00:20:57Such.
00:20:58Faith in prince Ning.
00:20:59Yihui Jin.
00:21:00Do not disappoint me.
00:21:01I won't fail you.
00:21:02Father emperor.
00:21:03This political marriage.
00:21:04I'll fulfill my duty.
00:21:06But.
00:21:07I must speak plainly.
00:21:08If this concerns.
00:21:09Princess Ning's funeral arrangements.
00:21:11I assure you.
00:21:12She'll be treated with dignity.
00:21:14You misunderstand me.
00:21:15I'd never let personal feelings.
00:21:17Compromise state affairs.
00:21:19Then why hesitate.
00:21:21I only mean.
00:21:22This alliance serves.
00:21:23To prevent border wars.
00:21:24Protect livelihoods.
00:21:25And secure your reign.
00:21:27H.M.
00:21:27Your trust in me.
00:21:29I accept with honor.
00:21:30My actions stem.
00:21:31Not from ambition for the throne.
00:21:33Good.
00:21:34Excellent.
00:21:35For the realm's sake.
00:21:36Ha ha ha.
00:21:37Let father and son stand united.
00:21:39This is what happens when you act on your own.
00:21:42Refusing to poison the princess consort.
00:21:44I didn't expect Pan Jung Woo.
00:21:45To recant in court.
00:21:48Now you understand.
00:21:50Yihui Jin's cunning ways.
00:21:51You just.
00:21:52Your highness.
00:21:53Only schemers like us.
00:21:54Would stoop so low.
00:21:56Yihui Jin isn't that kind of man.
00:22:00Then what is he?
00:22:01A gentle soul with jade like virtues.
00:22:03A model of humility and grace.
00:22:04I ordered you to monitor him.
00:22:06Not to fall for him.
00:22:07Do you understand?
00:22:23I have something to tell you.
00:22:47Your sister is awake.
00:22:48Don't come any closer.
00:23:00Yener is scared.
00:23:02Please.
00:23:03Just let me go.
00:23:08Yener.
00:23:10If you dare to move.
00:23:12She's dead.
00:23:14Beast.
00:23:15I will tear you to pieces.
00:23:17Since you know what I'm like.
00:23:21You better not defy me.
00:23:22Understand?
00:23:24Disobedience.
00:23:25Will be punished.
00:23:27What must I do.
00:23:28To make you spare Yener?
00:23:29At third princess banquet tomorrow.
00:23:31You'll assist me.
00:23:38How is Yener?
00:23:39The poison runs too deep.
00:23:41I've searched for cures worldwide.
00:23:43Only serpent venom brings relief.
00:23:44Now even that fails to suppress it.
00:23:47The child suffers endlessly.
00:23:49Strategist.
00:23:50Have you no other cure?
00:23:51There is one.
00:23:52But it's unattainable.
00:23:54The only antidote for meow poison is the longswoden elixir.
00:23:57The sole existing longswoden is secretly hoarded by his majesty.
00:24:01Exhaust all means from ghost bureau's reserves to sustain Yener's life.
00:24:13Only in temples wrongful conviction remains unresolved.
00:24:17His majesty will never let you inherit the throne.
00:24:19Ghost bureau has investigated for years.
00:24:22With no progress to the emperor, you remain the disgraced prince from the cold palace.
00:24:28Yener.
00:24:29Big brother, I'm not afraid of pain.
00:24:33I'll be good.
00:24:34I promise.
00:24:42How is Jinmay?
00:24:44Sent to Yunjou.
00:24:45Travel funds are sufficient.
00:24:47But the journey's long.
00:24:48And she's with child.
00:24:50Your highness.
00:24:50Should we send winter clothes?
00:24:53Unnecessary.
00:24:54Just kill her.
00:24:55Oh, and destroy her face.
00:24:57Bury the body parts separately.
00:24:59Eliminate all witnesses.
00:25:01To prevent leaks.
00:25:02As you command.
00:25:03Seven years ago at Homelian temple.
00:25:05I should never have spared.
00:25:06E. Gutzon's life.
00:25:07Empress mother, do you see this?
00:25:22I swear to uncover the truth for you.
00:25:25And restore your honor.
00:25:26You traitorous son.
00:25:36You caused the death of your birth mother and consortling.
00:25:38How dare you come worship here?
00:25:40Guards.
00:25:41Drag him out.
00:25:42Confine him to the ancestral hall forever.
00:25:44Your majesty.
00:25:45I'm innocent.
00:25:46Father, I'm not guilty.
00:25:48Release me.
00:25:49Let go.
00:25:50Scram.
00:25:51I'm innocent.
00:25:52Your majesty.
00:25:53Unhand me.
00:25:53Father, the dead cannot return.
00:26:08You mustn't take anger out on second brother.
00:26:11Come, rise.
00:26:12Rise now.
00:26:14My dear Gina, your kindness and benevolence shine.
00:26:17This brings me great comfort.
00:26:18Ha ha ha.
00:26:19Ha ha ha.
00:26:19Ha ha ha.
00:26:21Ha ha ha.
00:26:23Unic, wait.
00:26:27Since you're from Quingsong, could you tell me about Third Princess's preferences?
00:26:31Your highness, what about your promise?
00:26:34Rest assured, Unic, once there's news of your daughter, I'll inform you at once.
00:26:39Third Princess appears aloof, but admires noble virtues and heroic qualities.
00:26:45She disdains flattery.
00:26:46With such women, the more you praise them, playing hard to get, is the way to win her heart.
00:26:51Thank you for the guidance.
00:26:53Once I secure Third Princess, the throne will be mine.
00:26:56Your highness should observe first.
00:26:58Recently, the emperor's health has improved.
00:27:01No matter.
00:27:02I can reverse his recovery.
00:27:03All who block my ascension, must die.
00:27:10Welcome, Third Princess.
00:27:13May the Third Princess taste our kingdom's finest tea.
00:27:19Your tea, princess.
00:27:20To the Third Princess.
00:27:32I've long heard of Prince Ning's erudition, graceful demeanor, and seeing you today.
00:27:36You're truly a dragon among men.
00:27:37To meet you here, Third Princess, is Yijin's greatest honor.
00:27:42Over there, stands my brother Yee Gutsun.
00:27:47No formalities needed, Prince Ning.
00:27:49I've come seeking, a marriage alliance.
00:27:51But first, I'd inquire about, an organization called Gaisai.
00:27:55How does she know of Gaisai?
00:27:58Though newly arrived, why her interest in Gaisai?
00:28:02From his majesty's own words, two years ago, Gaisai stole imperial silver at Jiang Xia.
00:28:07Last year, they raided Heshi's execution grounds.
00:28:10This spring, Minister Lua personnel confessed and died.
00:28:14All Gaisai's doing.
00:28:15So his majesty knows everything.
00:28:17Five years of major crimes, yet they remain, at large.
00:28:20These shadows move cunningly, defy all logic.
00:28:23Beyond mortal reasoning, even my brother's decade-long pursuit, yielded no leads.
00:28:28Is that so?
00:28:29You're such a useless piece of trash.
00:28:31If you actually met Guay Si, I'm afraid, you'd be kidnapped and ransomed.
00:28:35So, finding no leads.
00:28:37Is your best bet for survival.
00:28:39Princess.
00:28:41You don't seem to like me very much.
00:28:44I just, admire Guay Si more than you.
00:28:46This band of outlaws.
00:28:48If they're wiped out by the court, it would be a real shame.
00:28:51So, you're saying, I should be thanking you instead?
00:28:55No need for thanks.
00:28:57But this tea, I'm still going to drink it.
00:29:06What exactly is Ye Gutsun's plan?
00:29:08Ye Gutsun, do you really think you deserve to have me offer you tea?
00:29:11Third princess, why so hostile?
00:29:14Ye Gutsun is, after all, my own brother.
00:29:17Prince Ning, say no more.
00:29:18Your father told me everything.
00:29:20The only reason he squeezed his way into today's tea party is because he's shameless.
00:29:25Today, I'm teaching your brother a lesson.
00:29:27Ye Gutsun, if you can't even handle this humiliation, how can you compete with Prince Ning?
00:29:32I'm speaking to you.
00:29:34Did you not hear me?
00:29:40Was this part of your plan?
00:29:43Uh, what's wrong with her highness?
00:29:47These are signs of poisoning.
00:29:48Han Chang, fetch the imperial position at once.
00:29:51It's pointless.
00:29:52The princess was poisoned with a blood sea needle.
00:29:54If we don't find the antidote, she has mere days to live.
00:29:59General, stay calm.
00:30:01We will find a way to save her.
00:30:03Since you know it's the blood sea needle, do you know how it's administered?
00:30:07Through tainted weapons, toxic fumes, or poisoned food.
00:30:12Your highness, your tea.
00:30:16It's her.
00:30:17She put poison in the princess's tea.
00:30:19That's the culprit.
00:30:21My lord, I serve Prince Ning.
00:30:23Why would I poison her highness?
00:30:24You'd never admit it.
00:30:26Guards, seize her.
00:30:28Who dares lay a hand on her?
00:30:31Yee-Hoo-A-Gin.
00:30:32The princess was poisoned.
00:30:33In your residence.
00:30:35If anything happens to her, I'll make you pay with your blood.
00:30:39Your highness, I'm fine.
00:30:45Yee-Hoo-Sick.
00:30:46To you, my life means nothing.
00:30:48Confess now, wizard you, still playing tough?
00:31:06Wait.
00:31:10Yee-Hoo-Sick.
00:31:12You think you can stop the execution?
00:31:14No.
00:31:15I just think.
00:31:16General, you're going too easy on him.
00:31:18Let me take over the execution.
00:31:27Where's the antidote?
00:31:29Your highness, I don't know.
00:31:31What exactly is your plan?
00:31:33Haven't I made myself clear?
00:31:34What must I do, for you to spare Yenor?
00:31:39Simple.
00:31:40At the third princess's banquet tomorrow, you'll cooperate with me.
00:31:44Yee-Gutsun.
00:31:45So you're trying to frame me, and pin it on Yee-Hoo-Jin, to gain the princess's favor?
00:31:49I'm sorry.
00:31:50I'll explain everything later.
00:31:52This is the only way to save you.
00:31:54My patience has its limits.
00:31:55Heya.
00:32:03Talk.
00:32:04I don't know.
00:32:05Stop.
00:32:12She can't be the killer.
00:32:13The chastity mark on her arm proves, blood sea needle toxin must be, crafted by a woman
00:32:18who's born children, using bitter maternal resentment, otherwise it's ineffective.
00:32:23This means, Hanchin isn't the poisoner.
00:32:26Moreover, she slipped the antidote, into my tea earlier, hence, my rapid recovery.
00:32:33What nonsense.
00:32:34Your limited mind, could never grasp this.
00:32:36Your harsh treatment of her, was just pathetic posturing.
00:32:39To gain my favor, but your groveling only, deepens my contempt.
00:32:43To me you're, worthless gutter sludge, beyond redemption.
00:32:48Prince Ming outsmarted us all.
00:32:51He detected the poisoning plot.
00:32:53Good antidote in my tea, with perfect subtlety, saving me discreetly.
00:32:57If that's true, why keep it secret?
00:33:00Well, the princess is exposed.
00:33:04Assassin remains hidden.
00:33:05Reckless action would, endanger her highness.
00:33:07This strategy, was her only protection.
00:33:10Though, Hanchin suffered unjustly.
00:33:14Are you injured?
00:33:16I'm fine, your highness.
00:33:18Rise quickly.
00:33:23Ugh.
00:33:23Who dares challenge me here?
00:33:38Who dares challenge me here?
00:33:38If I'm not mistaken, you're from the Shadow Sect.
00:33:52Only half right, princess.
00:33:59I, am the master of this Shadow Sect.
00:34:02All divisions of Shadow Sect, salute your master.
00:34:07Ye dudesen.
00:34:08Exactly.
00:34:09I'm that, hopeless playboy.
00:34:11You called good for nothing.
00:34:12You.
00:34:13Why would you assassinate me?
00:34:15Assassinate?
00:34:17You misunderstand, princess.
00:34:19I came to invite you for tea.
00:34:29Do I qualify to host you now?
00:34:32Your highness didn't escort the princess back.
00:34:51But came to tend to Hanchin.
00:34:53Unique way.
00:34:54Didn't you suggest playing hard to get, with the third princess?
00:34:58Let Ye Gootson enjoy, his temporary victory.
00:35:00Your highness, what's your next move?
00:35:04Remember, our trump card Hanchin, remains unplayed.
00:35:12The third princess has yielded, even gifting you her Jade Bracelet.
00:35:16Clearly she's taken a liking to you.
00:35:18Pity our original plan failed.
00:35:21But Hanchin suffered for it.
00:35:22True.
00:35:23Intelligence shows, the princess was poisoned long ago.
00:35:27Without her knowledge, I put the antidote in your tea, meant for you.
00:35:30Hanchin accidentally drank it, complicating matters.
00:35:36Enough.
00:35:37I should have informed her earlier.
00:35:40Your highness.
00:35:41One thing puzzles me.
00:35:43Why let Ye Huaijin take credit, instead of telling Hanchin the truth?
00:35:47Hanchin.
00:35:48She calls my methods despicable.
00:35:53Let me bear the shame, of these schemes alone.
00:35:57This deception serves purpose.
00:35:59If she believes Ye Huaijin, saved her life, affection may blossom.
00:36:04Perhaps, in time, she'll even share his bed.
00:36:06I've slept long enough, your highness.
00:36:17My wounds are healing.
00:36:19Please go attend to third princess.
00:36:20Are you trying to send me away?
00:36:23Hanchin doesn't wish to delay your highness duties.
00:36:26Third princess is cold hearted and domineering.
00:36:28What kind of duty is this?
00:36:29But third princess, it's crucial for your highness, to claim the crown prince position.
00:36:35If I can't even protect you, how could I command respect, even as crown prince?
00:36:40Ye Huaijin, you treat me so kindly.
00:36:42How can I bring myself to harm you?
00:36:45Hanchin?
00:36:45What's wrong?
00:36:46Is your wound hurting?
00:36:47Ahem.
00:36:56I shouldn't be seeing this.
00:36:57I'll fetch the royal physician.
00:37:09Your highness, could you go over there and fetch the wound ointment?
00:37:13All right.
00:37:17Your highness, as a lowly servant, I can't approach the royal physician.
00:37:29Would you help apply the medicine?
00:37:31Understood.
00:37:47I shall take my leave now.
00:37:51Hmm.
00:37:58All right, Hanchin, focus on recovering.
00:38:01If you need anything, ring the bell for me.
00:38:13Your seduction techniques are truly remarkable.
00:38:16Wasn't this your scheme?
00:38:18Why the hesitation?
00:38:20Now?
00:38:25Guess.
00:38:32Ye Guotsin.
00:38:34What's your game?
00:38:35You're injured, aren't you?
00:38:36I'll prepare your medicated bath.
00:38:37Yihuijin is next door.
00:38:45Aren't you afraid he'll hear?
00:38:46I enjoy this thrill.
00:38:52We'll be heard.
00:38:53Hanchin, were you calling me?
00:39:05I'm fine, your highness.
00:39:07Do you need anything, your highness?
00:39:09Ah, it's nothing urgent.
00:39:11I just wanted to check.
00:39:12Are you doing all right?
00:39:14All is well.
00:39:15No need to worry.
00:39:16I can't rest easy.
00:39:19Let me come in and check.
00:39:20Really?
00:39:21I'm fine.
00:39:23Very well.
00:39:24I'll take my leave now.
00:39:30Ye Guotsin, have you lost your mind?
00:39:32You see, I thrive on excitement.
00:39:36You're such a beast.
00:39:38I'm not done playing yet.
00:39:41Don't.
00:39:45Not good.
00:39:51Hanchin, are you in there?
00:40:02Your highness.
00:40:03I'm taking a medicinal bath.
00:40:05I accidentally dropped a bell earlier.
00:40:08My apologies for intruding.
00:40:09I thought you were in danger.
00:40:11Hence the abrupt entrance.
00:40:12I'm fine.
00:40:13Perhaps your highness misheard earlier.
00:40:16Ah, that must be it.
00:40:18I'll take my leave then.
00:40:26Could it be that there's something unusual about this bathing tub?
00:40:35Your highness.
00:40:40I accidentally aggravated my wound.
00:40:43The pain is unbearable.
00:40:45Might your highness assist with my treatment?
00:40:47Wait, this isn't right.
00:40:49Focus on your recovery.
00:40:50I won't disturb you further.
00:40:52Have you lost your mind?
00:41:06Haven't you done well enough?
00:41:13Messing with him like this, does this amuse you?
00:41:15Exactly.
00:41:16The more Yihui Jin cares for you, the greater my chances with the third princess will grow.
00:41:22Don't be naive.
00:41:23Do you truly believe he'd abandon the third princess for someone like me?
00:41:27Certainly not.
00:41:29Yihui Jin.
00:41:29I beat him to the punch.
00:41:32Now he's desperate to retaliate.
00:41:33Tonight, he's meeting the third princess for tea.
00:41:36It's the perfect chance for an ambush.
00:41:38You want me to assassinate Yihui Jin?
00:41:39On the contrary.
00:41:42I need you to protect him.
00:41:44So that he becomes utterly infatuated with you.
00:41:49Wear this jade bracelet.
00:41:51When the assassins see you, they'll play along accordingly.
00:41:54Cross this street, and we'll arrive at the meeting place with third princess.
00:42:00Your highness is moon viewing with third princess.
00:42:03Why bring me?
00:42:04Royal marriage concerns state affairs.
00:42:07I don't understand women's thoughts.
00:42:08Might say wrong words.
00:42:11Keeping you nearby, calms my nerves.
00:42:13Does your highness think Yee Gutsun's silver tongue can charm the princess?
00:42:18Ceasing war between kingdoms would bless the people.
00:42:21Even if she chooses, second prince, I'll sincerely bless them.
00:42:27We share same blood.
00:42:29Yet one's noble and virtuous.
00:42:31The other vile and wicked.
00:42:33What's wrong?
00:42:34What's wrong?
00:42:51Your highness, danger.
00:42:52Your highness, danger.
00:43:21You, you.
00:43:23Yee Gutsun clearly agreed to stage a fight.
00:43:26Why use lethal force?
00:43:30Your highness, be careful.
00:43:31I clearly arranged to admire the moon with Prince Nee.
00:43:45Why did you come instead?
00:43:47You drank my tea.
00:43:48Why play both sides?
00:43:49Yee Huaijin is your father's favorite.
00:43:52One ghost division token isn't enough to make me abandon my expectations of him.
00:43:57Today, I've brought third princess a grand gift.
00:43:59Oh?
00:44:00The poisoner from last time.
00:44:02I've identified them.
00:44:04You mean, the one who used blood sea needle on me?
00:44:06Found them.
00:44:07General Vermillion Bird.
00:44:09Will you confess?
00:44:10Or shall I speak for you?
00:44:11Forgive me, princess.
00:44:17I had no choice.
00:44:19Vermillion Bird.
00:44:20You.
00:44:21Why?
00:44:21Why did even you betray me?
00:44:23They threatened my husband and children.
00:44:25I.
00:44:27In a moment of weakness.
00:44:28Who are these, they?
00:44:29You speak up.
00:44:30She had poison in her mouth.
00:44:37Truth be told, I can guess who's behind Shuchu's actions.
00:44:40Fingsong Kingdom is powerful, but the young ruler is inexperienced.
00:44:44That's why the dowager must eliminate all potential threats.
00:44:47You think marrying Yee Huaijin will make her spare you?
00:44:51I trust Yee Huaijin's capabilities.
00:44:53Just like you trust Shukai.
00:44:54So what's your proposal?
00:45:01Here's the thing about me.
00:45:03My terms are simple.
00:45:05Help me secure the throne.
00:45:07And I'll help you turn the tables.
00:45:13Yee Huaijin.
00:45:15What if I actually fall for you?
00:45:17What then?
00:45:20Your Highness, watch out.
00:45:24Your Highness, I'm sorry.
00:45:52Princess, your thoughts are quite amusing.
00:45:54Ha ha.
00:45:56Isn't that Prince Ming over there?
00:45:59Ignore them.
00:46:06Second brother.
00:46:07Why are you with the princess?
00:46:11What's going on here?
00:46:13I don't know.
00:46:13Don't know isn't an answer.
00:46:15It means exactly that.
00:46:20Your bracelet.
00:46:21Why is it identical to mine?
00:46:23Third princess.
00:46:23Third princess.
00:46:24It might be a similar design.
00:46:25Perhaps you're mistaken.
00:46:28This is clearly my bracelet.
00:46:30What are you doing?
00:46:31What are you doing?
00:46:32Prince Ning should question.
00:46:33His own maid.
00:46:34The bracelet I gave to Yee Huaijin.
00:46:36How did she get it?
00:46:37Han Chan.
00:46:39Explain this immediately.
00:46:42Yee Huaijin.
00:46:44Don't you owe me an explanation?
00:46:46Coincidence.
00:46:46Very well.
00:46:48Then where's the one I gave you?
00:46:50Produce it now.
00:46:51Let's see it.
00:46:52If I show mine, what will you think of me?
00:46:54You show yours first.
00:46:59This is the jade bracelet the princess gifted me.
00:47:01I've treasured it close to me all this time.
00:47:04How could this happen?
00:47:06Third princess.
00:47:07Disregarding the truth and framing Han Chan, you must apologize to her.
00:47:11Yee Huaijin.
00:47:12Are you serious?
00:47:14You jumped to conclusions first, then acted recklessly.
00:47:17You owe Han Chan an apology.
00:47:19Yee Huaijin.
00:47:20You.
00:47:20You expect a royal princess to apologize to your maid?
00:47:25Your highness.
00:47:26Let it go.
00:47:27Why should we?
00:47:28Does being a princess give you the right to bully others?
00:47:31You.
00:47:31Today I'll apologize.
00:47:33On her highness behalf, my third brother is still injured.
00:47:36We won't keep you.
00:47:38Any longer.
00:47:39Fine.
00:47:40May I suggest your highness learn proper etiquette to avoid future offenses.
00:47:51After this incident, this alliance with the third princess is officially sealed.
00:47:56You dispatched two assassins who nearly harmed Han Chan.
00:48:00Were you aware?
00:48:00There are two assassins?
00:48:02I only sent one man.
00:48:04What?
00:48:07Your highness's scheme is truly brilliant.
00:48:10This incident has deepened Yee Huaijin's concern for Han Chan.
00:48:17Did my arrow harm your highness?
00:48:19No harm done.
00:48:20I took the arrow meant for Han Chan.
00:48:22For guilt towards me will only grow.
00:48:24However, aren't you concerned about third princess and Yee Gutsu growing closer?
00:48:29Marrying into Feint Song Kingdom would rely on others' mercy.
00:48:33But if we extract Northern Mang Clan's secret from Han Chan, the nine provinces, and all nations,
00:48:40shall be mine, Yee Huaijins.
00:48:41I trust your highness will honor and find my daughter swiftly.
00:48:45Rest assured, eunuch, serve me faithfully, and you'll reunite with your child.
00:48:49There was an incident last night.
00:49:06An accident?
00:49:09With just a single bracelet, you made third princess and Yee Huaijin enemies.
00:49:13Quite clever, don't you think?
00:49:15Moreover, Yee Huaijin took an arrow for me.
00:49:17That was also part of your scheme, right?
00:49:19Those assassins were Yee Huaijin's men.
00:49:20Are you suggesting Yee Huaijin ordered his own men to injure himself?
00:49:25A self-inflicted injury scheme.
00:49:28Yee Huaijin isn't that kind of person.
00:49:30Not everyone is as despicable as you.
00:49:35I'm not just despicable.
00:49:37I'm downright shameless.
00:49:39How's my sister?
00:49:41If you cooperate, she'll be just fine.
00:49:43I've promised to take her kite flying south tomorrow.
00:49:46As for you, keep seducing Yee Huaijin.
00:49:49You don't need to be so cautious.
00:50:16I'm not afraid of pain.
00:50:18Your highness got injured while saving my life.
00:50:21The situation was too urgent.
00:50:23I just wanted to cover your escape.
00:50:34Who are you, sir?
00:50:35Why help me?
00:50:36This place is dangerous.
00:50:38Leave immediately.
00:50:48Your highness, this isn't your first time taking an arrow for me.
00:50:51Nor the first time you've said these words to me.
00:50:55This jade pendant you left behind years ago now returns to its owner.
00:50:59I never imagined you'd fall into Yee Huaijin's clutches and help him harm me.
00:51:13Han Kan repays kindness with betrayal.
00:51:15I cannot face your highness again.
00:51:17I beg your highness to grant me death.
00:51:19If I resented you, would I have spared you till now?
00:51:22What I don't understand is, Yee Huaijin is your sworn enemy.
00:51:26Why aid his tyranny?
00:51:27Why obey him?
00:51:29He holds my sister captive.
00:51:31He threatens her life.
00:51:32Your sister?
00:51:33Hmm.
00:51:34Her name is Yenor.
00:51:36Our clan leader recognized her as the shamanus.
00:51:39That night when
00:51:40I risked my life to save her.
00:51:43So the keeper of Beinang's secret isn't Han Kan.
00:51:46But her sister.
00:51:48Rest assured, I'll find a way to rescue Yenor
00:51:50and free you from Yee Huaijin's grass.
00:51:53But
00:51:53Gai Sai Fortress is heavily guarded.
00:51:55To save Yenor, we need perfect timing and position.
00:52:00Tomorrow
00:52:01South of the city
00:52:03Yenor, slow down.
00:52:05Big brother, why didn't you bring your sword?
00:52:07They're coming.
00:52:08But Yenor said
00:52:09she dislikes those
00:52:10who brandish weapons.
00:52:15Be good, Yenor.
00:52:16I'll be back soon.
00:52:18Wait here for me, okay?
00:52:19I won't leave.
00:52:30Let's rescue her now
00:52:31while we have the chance.
00:52:33Big brother, help me.
00:52:45The ghost master
00:52:49isn't so fearsome.
00:52:53Brother, save me.
00:52:54Yenor, you're bleeding so much.
00:53:08Big brother, you're bleeding so much.
00:53:09Does it hurt?
00:53:10I'm fine.
00:53:11Your safety matters most.
00:53:14Who sent you?
00:53:15Tell your master, if he wants Yenor, keep her in ghost division.
00:53:22She's poisoned with Miao Goo and can't survive without me.
00:53:27Yenor has Miao Goo poison.
00:53:28I'll find a cure.
00:53:31Yenor, repeat that.
00:53:34You dare ask me for the dragon marrow elixir?
00:53:37Yeah.
00:53:38I beg you, father, grant the dragon marrow elixir to me.
00:53:41Whose life do you seek to save with it?
00:53:44A loved one.
00:53:48What loved one do you have that I'm unaware of?
00:53:51Not my kin.
00:53:52I plead today for Han Chan's sake.
00:53:54Han Chan?
00:53:56You mean this maid?
00:53:57You defy me for a mere servant to covet my national treasure.
00:54:01Han Chan is no servant.
00:54:02She means everything to me.
00:54:04You.
00:54:04I arranged your match with third princess.
00:54:06Yet you're fraternizing with a maid.
00:54:08Do you mean to drive me to my grave?
00:54:10There's been no impropriety.
00:54:12I seek to honorably make Han Chan my consort.
00:54:16Absurd.
00:54:17Our bond is genuine.
00:54:20I beg your blessing, father.
00:54:22Think carefully.
00:54:23Marry her.
00:54:25And you surrender all to Yenor.
00:54:31These past days.
00:54:32I've fought deeply these days.
00:54:35Grand ambitions.
00:54:36The people's welfare.
00:54:38Do they truly matter to me?
00:54:40Besides.
00:54:42Second brother's talents far surpass mine.
00:54:44With your guidance, father, he'll achieve greatness.
00:54:49Wei Qin, bring Wei Qin here.
00:54:51Yes.
00:54:56Oomph.
00:54:58After you, Prince Ning.
00:55:02Wait for me.
00:55:08Yi Huai Jin's move.
00:55:11Did you teach him this?
00:55:12Isn't this what you wanted?
00:55:14I told you to seduce him, not marry him.
00:55:16Sorry, I overdid it.
00:55:22Your mission ends here.
00:55:25I'll reunite you with Yenor.
00:55:26I no longer need you.
00:55:31You can't save Yenor.
00:55:32But the long Sweden can.
00:55:35I forbid you to marry him.
00:55:37Do you understand?
00:55:38Hmm?
00:55:39What?
00:55:40Reluctant to part?
00:55:43Have you slept together?
00:55:45Yi Huai Jin saved my life.
00:55:47He's deceiving you.
00:55:48Don't you see?
00:55:50Yi Guzen.
00:55:51What are you doing?
00:55:52My apologies.
00:55:57That was improper.
00:55:59It won't happen again.
00:56:01There won't be a next time.
00:56:03Your majesty has arrived.
00:56:09We have decreed to arrange a marriage between Yi Huai Jin and Han San.
00:56:14Father Emperor, I beg you to revoke this order.
00:56:17Why?
00:56:18Because you don't know Han San's true identity.
00:56:22Father doesn't know Han San's true identity, right?
00:56:28Father believes that Yi Huai Jin can marry a female assassin colluding with ghost division.
00:56:34Is what Yi Huai Jin said true?
00:56:36Father, please see clearly.
00:56:38Han San is gentle and kind.
00:56:39She could never be an assassin.
00:56:41The young prince is right.
00:56:43Han San is indeed an assassin.
00:56:44And deeply involved with ghost division.
00:56:47Ah.
00:56:48Autumn of Gui Cho year.
00:56:51Robbing the Jiangxia treasury.
00:56:52Was that female banned you?
00:56:54Correct.
00:56:55And last year.
00:56:56The one who raided the Jingbei execution ground.
00:56:59That was also me.
00:57:00And Minister Liu.
00:57:02Who committed suicide.
00:57:03I forced him to death too.
00:57:05Ha ha ha.
00:57:07So.
00:57:07Why would you reveal your crimes?
00:57:09Before me.
00:57:10Why is that?
00:57:10Your majesty.
00:57:13Please allow me to say a few words to the prince.
00:57:16Um.
00:57:22Yi Guzen.
00:57:23Since you want to fight to the death.
00:57:26I'll give you two choices.
00:57:28First.
00:57:30Give up the throne.
00:57:31Get out of the capital now.
00:57:33I'll take all the blame.
00:57:35And the second?
00:57:35I'll tell the emperor.
00:57:39That you're the master of ghost division.
00:57:42Tell him everything.
00:57:44Even our bedroom affairs.
00:57:47I don't mind.
00:57:51Shameless.
00:57:52You taught me.
00:57:55Your majesty.
00:57:57The treasury robbery.
00:57:58The execution ground raid.
00:57:59And Minister Liu's case.
00:58:02Yi Guzen made me do it all.
00:58:03Also.
00:58:06Yi Guzen made me infiltrate Ning's manor.
00:58:08Seduce Yi Huaijin.
00:58:09A plot to help him seize the throne.
00:58:13Yi Guzen.
00:58:14Is what Han Chan's saying true?
00:58:16So what if I am?
00:58:17Yi Guzen.
00:58:18Years ago at Honglian Temple.
00:58:20I showed you mercy.
00:58:21Never expected to raise.
00:58:22This ungrateful wolf.
00:58:23I've said this countless times.
00:58:25The Honglian case has hidden truths.
00:58:27Yet for seven years.
00:58:29You've never trusted me.
00:58:30Instead you accuse me.
00:58:31Of harming the Empress Dowager.
00:58:33Your son vies for the throne.
00:58:35Only to clear my name.
00:58:37And find the real culprit.
00:58:39For this alone.
00:58:40You collude with Ghost Division.
00:58:41Yeah.
00:58:42His majesty.
00:58:43He didn't collude.
00:58:44Yi Guzen leads Ghost Division.
00:58:46Yi Guzen.
00:58:48Can this also be true?
00:58:50And if it is.
00:58:51Seize him.
00:58:52Now.
00:58:53Arrest him immediately.
00:58:57Halt.
00:58:57Your majesty is mistaken.
00:59:05I command Ghost Division.
00:59:08Yi Guzen.
00:59:09Nearly serves my will.
00:59:12Princess.
00:59:13Cease your jesting.
00:59:14Do you think I'm joking?
00:59:15I traveled thousands of miles to Nanchu.
00:59:17Does it look like I came to jest?
00:59:19That official silver.
00:59:20Was always meant as tribute.
00:59:22To our nation.
00:59:23I merely collected it early.
00:59:25Storming the execution ground.
00:59:27Was to rescue our merchants.
00:59:29Lest my emperor.
00:59:30Grows displeased.
00:59:31Enleash your land's blood soaked.
00:59:33Princess.
00:59:34I tolerate your presence as guest.
00:59:36And have shown.
00:59:37Repeated restraint.
00:59:38Address me like this again.
00:59:40I'll show no mercy.
00:59:42Oof.
00:59:42Old emperor.
00:59:44Oh old emperor.
00:59:45You've truly lost your wits.
00:59:47You don't even read.
00:59:49The front line reports.
00:59:50What?
00:59:52Majesty.
00:59:52Your majesty.
00:59:54Disaster strikes.
00:59:55Your majesty.
00:59:56Sire.
00:59:58Feng Kang's army yesterday.
00:59:59Reached our borders.
01:00:00Our troops fled without fighting.
01:00:02Tens of thousands surrendered overnight.
01:00:08Princess.
01:00:08Do you see our situation?
01:00:11Is there room for negotiation?
01:00:15Third princess.
01:00:17Look at the current situation.
01:00:18Is there still room for negotiation?
01:00:20Nonsense.
01:00:20Did I come all this way.
01:00:23Not to negotiate peace?
01:00:25That minister Liu.
01:00:26Was a spy from our kingdom all along.
01:00:29He embezzled a huge sum.
01:00:30And was too self-serving.
01:00:32That's why I executed him.
01:00:34If that's the case.
01:00:35Your Gai Sai invaded our kingdom.
01:00:37To improve our relations.
01:00:39What else?
01:00:40Think carefully.
01:00:41Why hasn't your kingdom.
01:00:42Defeated Gai Sai in all these years?
01:00:45If that's how it is.
01:00:46Why didn't you inform me sooner?
01:00:48What I do.
01:00:49Isn't for you to dictate.
01:00:50If I were you.
01:00:52I'd reward ye goods and handsomely.
01:00:54After all.
01:00:55He's.
01:00:55The husband I carefully chose.
01:00:57Don't wait until the kingdom falls.
01:00:59I'll strip you of that dragon robe.
01:01:01What are you staring at?
01:01:08Watch your back.
01:01:09Woman.
01:01:17I never expected.
01:01:18It was the third princess.
01:01:19Who came to my aid before the emperor.
01:01:21I'm a simple man.
01:01:23Help me turn the tables.
01:01:24And I'll help you ascend the throne.
01:01:25No one will interfere with our grand plan.
01:01:30In the throne hall today.
01:01:31You overstepped your authority.
01:01:33Hmph.
01:01:34This princess will wield her power as she pleases.
01:01:37In three days.
01:01:38I'll have the old emperor.
01:01:39Arrange a grand engagement banquet for us.
01:01:42If he wants peace.
01:01:43He'll obey without question.
01:01:45Ha ha ha.
01:01:46Aren't you afraid ye YG.
01:01:48We'll sabotage our plans.
01:01:50Your highness.
01:01:51Your highness.
01:01:52Yang has been kidnapped.
01:01:54A master assassin in black.
01:01:56Took her.
01:01:56And fled toward the city gates.
01:01:58Quick.
01:02:08Neil.
01:02:09The witch from Beemang.
01:02:10I've brought her to you.
01:02:14Don't be afraid.
01:02:16Yenner.
01:02:16Your brother is here to avenge you.
01:02:18I can't understand.
01:02:19Why a child so young.
01:02:21Hold such crucial secrets.
01:02:23Yunnick Wei.
01:02:24Do you know why two years ago.
01:02:25The emperor exterminated Beemang's clan.
01:02:28Rumors say it's treza.
01:02:29But how could a clan of under a hundred households.
01:02:31Pose a real threat.
01:02:33Do you know the Beemang people.
01:02:34Are master craftsmen.
01:02:35They excel in gunpowder arts.
01:02:37Mom has told me.
01:02:39A general from the previous dynasty.
01:02:41Hit extremely powerful firearms.
01:02:43In mountain caves.
01:02:44Whoever controls them.
01:02:46Could dominate the world.
01:02:47Unite all under heaven.
01:02:48That's why.
01:02:49The cave's location.
01:02:51Is the Beemang clan's.
01:02:52Greatest secret.
01:02:53So you mean.
01:02:55The consort Ling.
01:02:56Knew this secret.
01:02:57But she refused to tell me.
01:02:59Swore she'd take it.
01:03:01To her grave.
01:03:02That's why.
01:03:03You burned Red Lotus Temple.
01:03:05Killing your own mother.
01:03:06Frame G.
01:03:07Gutsun for it.
01:03:09Father always favored him before that.
01:03:11To find those weapons.
01:03:13You used Han Chan as bait.
01:03:15Led her into your trap.
01:03:16Until you realized.
01:03:18The secret wasn't with her.
01:03:19But this girl before us.
01:03:21She.
01:03:22Is the true shamaness of Beemang.
01:03:24When Beemang was massacred.
01:03:27The chief feared leaks.
01:03:28Made her drink meow poison.
01:03:30To erase her memories.
01:03:31Han Chan trusted you.
01:03:33Else how'd you discover.
01:03:35The shamaness was at Ghost Bureau.
01:03:40Yenor.
01:03:41Tell me where the cave is.
01:03:42I'll avenge you.
01:03:50Talk.
01:03:51You're evil.
01:03:52I'd rather die.
01:03:54Than tell you.
01:03:55Last chance.
01:03:56Talk or die.
01:03:57Take her out.
01:03:59Execute her.
01:04:00Go.
01:04:03Even without those weapons.
01:04:08I'll still conquer the world.
01:04:12To bring Yiguchi to justice.
01:04:14You've sacrificed your own standing.
01:04:16But father.
01:04:17Can't control.
01:04:18The arrogant third princess.
01:04:19Our only path is to eliminate the threat.
01:04:22Too risky.
01:04:23If the third princess dies in Nenshu.
01:04:25It will spark war between kingdoms.
01:04:27Countless lives will be lost.
01:04:29Not the princess.
01:04:30But Yiguchi.
01:04:31With Yiguchi eliminated.
01:04:34All obstacles vanish.
01:04:37But Han Chan.
01:04:37I can't let you take this risk again.
01:04:40Your Highness.
01:04:41My life was saved by you.
01:04:43You've always treated me with respect.
01:04:45This needs no explanation.
01:04:47When will you strike?
01:04:49My only hesitation is.
01:04:51My sister remains.
01:04:53In Yiguchi's clutches.
01:04:54What's wrong?
01:04:57Your Highness.
01:04:59Yenor.
01:04:59She.
01:05:01Is gone.
01:05:05What did you say?
01:05:06I sent men to the ghost bureau.
01:05:09To retrieve dragon marrow elixir.
01:05:11And rescue Yenor.
01:05:12But instead I.
01:05:13Witnessed Yiguchi.
01:05:15Murder her with his own hands.
01:05:16Today I sent someone to the ghost division.
01:05:22Intended to obtain the dragon marrow elixir.
01:05:25To rescue Yenor and escape.
01:05:26But unexpectedly.
01:05:28I.
01:05:28Witnessed Yiguchi.
01:05:29Personally kill her with his own hands.
01:05:31How is this possible?
01:05:33Just days ago in the southern suburbs.
01:05:36I clearly saw him desperately.
01:05:38Protecting Yenor.
01:05:39Why would he kill Yenor now?
01:05:41I suspect he has feelings for you.
01:05:44Using Yenor as leverage.
01:05:46Today the emperor arranged our marriage.
01:05:47Yet you remain so resolute.
01:05:50Filled with humiliated rage.
01:05:51He took his anger out on Yenor.
01:05:53Impossible.
01:05:56Impossible.
01:05:58This can't be real.
01:06:00Yenor.
01:06:00Yenor.
01:06:08Why didn't you tell me sooner?
01:06:12I'm sorry.
01:06:13I feared the grief would overwhelm you.
01:06:20Yenor.
01:06:242-2.
01:06:262-2.
01:06:272-2.
01:06:35Our grudges are between us.
01:06:38Why target the strategist?
01:06:40Are you insane?
01:06:42This sword strike.
01:06:43Is for my people of Beimei.
01:06:45Han Chan.
01:06:46Let me explain.
01:06:48This blade.
01:06:49You forced me to seduce Yihui Jin.
01:06:52If I told you.
01:06:53That I deeply regret.
01:06:55Sending you to infiltrate Ning Manor.
01:06:57Would you believe me?
01:07:00This strike.
01:07:02You took control of my body.
01:07:04Not control.
01:07:05I fell in love with you.
01:07:09You dare speak of love?
01:07:11Before.
01:07:12I believed people like us.
01:07:14Aren't meant for emotions.
01:07:15No room for feelings.
01:07:17I cleared my mother's name.
01:07:19You begged for your sister's life.
01:07:22We're all birds of a feather.
01:07:24Just using each other.
01:07:26You're not mistaken.
01:07:28But then.
01:07:29When you were with Yihui Jin.
01:07:31I saw another side.
01:07:33Of a girl.
01:07:34And of myself.
01:07:35A stranger within.
01:07:36I regretted.
01:07:38Making you seduce him.
01:07:39Making you despise me.
01:07:44Han Chan.
01:07:46Can you give me a chance.
01:07:47To make this right?
01:07:51He's using you.
01:07:52I owe him my life.
01:07:55Han Chan.
01:07:56Han Chan.
01:07:57Don't.
01:07:58You'll regret this.
01:07:59Han Chan.
01:08:01Can't you see.
01:08:02The one who saved you.
01:08:04Was his highness.
01:08:06Yihui Jin just.
01:08:08Stole the cred.
01:08:08Yihui Jin is nothing but.
01:08:10A fraud who stole someone's identity.
01:08:11Two years ago.
01:08:18Yihui Jin.
01:08:19Accused the Beimang clan of treason.
01:08:21His majesty ordered me to lead the purge.
01:08:24Yihui Jin was appointed military overseer.
01:08:27Your highness opposed needless bloodshed.
01:08:29Plan to send ghost bureau elites.
01:08:31To conduct a rescue mission.
01:08:33But.
01:08:35Yihui Jin's surveillance was airtight.
01:08:38Your highness had no choice.
01:08:39But to carry out the imperial equipment.
01:08:42That day.
01:08:44I noticed you and Yenner.
01:08:45At the old residence.
01:08:58I suspected.
01:09:00You'd attempt a night time rest.
01:09:02But Yihui Jin.
01:09:03Had already laid traps here.
01:09:05He aimed to wipe out every last Beimang.
01:09:08Without exception.
01:09:10Disguised and masked.
01:09:12I evaded Yihui Jin's surveillance.
01:09:14To stop you from walking into the trap.
01:09:17Yet I arrived too late.
01:09:20When I arrived.
01:09:21You were already surrounded.
01:09:23Yet you kept fighting desperately.
01:09:25Trying to rescue Yenner.
01:09:27But the situation was critical.
01:09:30I could only escort you to safety.
01:09:32Then ordered Tu Cha.
01:09:33To find a way to save Yenner.
01:09:36His highness waited two years for you.
01:09:38Only now do you learn.
01:09:39Yenner is in the ghost bureau.
01:09:41You expect me to believe.
01:09:42This nonsense?
01:09:44When you asked me.
01:09:45Who are you?
01:09:46Why help me?
01:09:48I replied.
01:09:49This place is dangerous.
01:09:51Leave now.
01:09:51Then Yenner cried out.
01:09:54You could only flee.
01:09:56In this scenario.
01:09:58True or false?
01:09:59This scene.
01:10:00Was witnessed by all present.
01:10:02Why should I believe?
01:10:04You saved me?
01:10:05No.
01:10:06You left in haste that day.
01:10:21Leaving a half moon jade pendant.
01:10:23On the battlefield.
01:10:25Unfortunately found by Yihui Jin.
01:10:28So my rescuer.
01:10:30Was really you.
01:10:31Stop trusting him.
01:10:33Understand?
01:10:38If you hadn't killed Yenner.
01:10:39I might have believed your lies.
01:10:42Die.
01:10:46Impossible.
01:10:50Yikutsun is dead.
01:10:51How did he die so suddenly?
01:10:53Father.
01:10:54Please accept my condolences.
01:10:55My brother was brutally assassinated.
01:10:58YG lost his blood brother.
01:11:00But now we must.
01:11:02Handle funeral arrangements.
01:11:03And the third princess marriage pact.
01:11:05Which is most urgent.
01:11:10Father.
01:11:11Gina.
01:11:12Then tell me.
01:11:13What should we do now?
01:11:15The tragic news of Lord Yi.
01:11:17You must have heard.
01:11:18Princess.
01:11:19Prince Ning summoned me here.
01:11:21Surely you didn't call me here.
01:11:23To discuss funeral notices?
01:11:25Talking to smart people is so easy.
01:11:27What I mean is.
01:11:29Since third princess is betrothed.
01:11:31And my brother died suddenly.
01:11:33Why not.
01:11:34Marry me directly instead?
01:11:35Why should I agree to this?
01:11:37Third princess.
01:11:38To achieve greatness.
01:11:40You need capable allies.
01:11:41My strategies and methods.
01:11:43Rival even Lord Yez.
01:11:44Moreover.
01:11:45I'll soon ascend the throne.
01:11:47Then both kingdoms power.
01:11:49Will be in our hands.
01:11:51I can marry you.
01:11:53But first.
01:11:54You must meet one condition.
01:11:56Name your terms.
01:11:57Hand over Lord Yez.
01:11:58Killer.
01:11:59Do you mean this?
01:12:01I swear on my honor.
01:12:03The day you produce the killer.
01:12:05Is the day I'll marry you.
01:12:07Third princess.
01:12:12You ask the impossible.
01:12:14The person who killed Lord Ye.
01:12:17Is standing right here.
01:12:18Why did you kill him?
01:12:25You sold me out so easily.
01:12:27Aren't you afraid I'll reveal the truth?
01:12:29What else are you hiding?
01:12:31I did kill Yee Guchen.
01:12:33But the real mastermind.
01:12:34Is Yee Hwy G.
01:12:36Why would I kill Yee Guchen?
01:12:38If I killed him.
01:12:38Seven years ago.
01:12:40At the Red Lotus Temple.
01:12:41Why would I protect him?
01:12:43I'd even give him the throne.
01:12:44There's no reason.
01:12:46Then why did he die?
01:12:48Last night.
01:12:48Yenor was poisoned.
01:12:49Han Chan.
01:12:50In a fit of rage and hatred.
01:12:52Accidentally killed her.
01:12:54Yee Hwy Jin.
01:12:55Don't you love Han Chan?
01:12:56You're not protecting her?
01:12:58Instead.
01:12:59You betrayed her.
01:13:00Third princess.
01:13:01Before the grand plan.
01:13:02What does my personal feelings matter?
01:13:04Besides.
01:13:05Aren't you the same kind of person?
01:13:07Yee Hwy Jin.
01:13:09You really are a good actor.
01:13:13Now you know.
01:13:14Isn't it a little late?
01:13:15Yee Guchen was completely loyal to you.
01:13:17Yet.
01:13:18You killed him.
01:13:19Do you regret it?
01:13:20Oh.
01:13:21Right.
01:13:22Yee Hwy Jin wasn't killed by Yee Guchen either.
01:13:25It was me.
01:13:26This prince.
01:13:30Yee Hwy Jin.
01:13:31I will tear you to pieces.
01:13:34Third princess.
01:13:35I've said everything I wanted to say.
01:13:37Do it.
01:13:38Stop.
01:13:40Stop.
01:13:57Yee Guchen.
01:13:58I knew you weren't dead.
01:13:59Exactly.
01:14:01It was a plan Han Chan and I devised.
01:14:03Otherwise.
01:14:05Who'd deal with him?
01:14:06If you hadn't killed Yenor.
01:14:08I almost believed your lies.
01:14:11Don't kill big brother.
01:14:14Sis.
01:14:15I remember everything now.
01:14:21Yenor.
01:14:22Thanks to big brother.
01:14:23You gave me soft armor.
01:14:25He saved my life.
01:14:26He even gave me dragon marrow pills.
01:14:29All this time.
01:14:33I've wronged you.
01:14:36Let's focus on the present.
01:14:38We need to counter Yee Hwy Jin first.
01:14:40Other matters can wait.
01:14:42How about we.
01:14:43Play along with their scheme.
01:14:45Perhaps.
01:14:47We have another ally.
01:14:51Yee Hwy Jin.
01:14:52It's time to settle our score.
01:14:53Let's calculate it properly.
01:14:55Then it depends on you.
01:14:56Whether you have the ability.
01:14:59Protect Yee Guchen.
01:15:05This old eunuch.
01:15:06Is so powerful.
01:15:07Is his hidden identity in the palace.
01:15:13His true identity.
01:15:14Was once the best in the land.
01:15:16The evil sword.
01:15:17Lu Han.
01:15:18Yee Guchen.
01:15:19This sword play.
01:15:20Does it look familiar?
01:15:21The Red Lotus Temple case 7 years ago.
01:15:23Was also done for me by Yee Hwy Jin.
01:15:26I'm going to kill you.
01:15:287 years.
01:15:29Yee Guchen.
01:15:30Why don't you just honestly.
01:15:32Be a prince?
01:15:32Why do you have to keep bothering me?
01:15:34Originally.
01:15:35If Ching May had a child.
01:15:36The throne would be mine.
01:15:38But you.
01:15:38Insisted on sending her to scheme against me.
01:15:40What right do you have?
01:15:42To mention Ching May.
01:15:43You knew she was having an affair.
01:15:44But you planned to steal an heir.
01:15:46When that failed.
01:15:47You killed her.
01:15:48But none of what you did.
01:15:49Escaped the Ghost Division's eyes.
01:15:51So what?
01:15:52It helped me ascend the throne.
01:15:53That was Ching May's blessing.
01:15:55Fine.
01:15:56Then I'll ask you one thing.
01:15:57On Ching May's right ankle.
01:15:58Is there a blue birthmark?
01:16:00You traitorous spy.
01:16:02You've done your homework.
01:16:03But.
01:16:04It's all meaningless now.
01:16:06You next way.
01:16:13Why do you kill me?
01:16:17Xia Wang.
01:16:18This is the beast.
01:16:20Let dad.
01:16:21Personally.
01:16:22Kill you.
01:16:25Let's leave that for now.
01:16:27What we need to do now.
01:16:28Is kill Yee Huaijin.
01:16:29We can talk about other things later.
01:16:31Why don't we turn the tables?
01:16:32Perhaps.
01:16:33We have another helper.
01:16:34We have another ally.
01:16:36Miss Han Chan.
01:16:37Why meet with me now?
01:16:38What is this about?
01:16:39I have two portraits here.
01:16:41Please take a look.
01:16:42Master.
01:16:45Xiaowan.
01:16:46Before you mastered the evil slaying sword art.
01:16:49You entrusted Xiaowan to a wealthy merchant.
01:16:51But who would have thought?
01:16:52The merchant met with Miss Fortune.
01:16:53Xiaowan.
01:16:54And she vanished without a trace.
01:16:56Xiaowan.
01:16:57Xiaowan.
01:16:57Where is she now?
01:16:58Master.
01:16:59Stay calm.
01:17:01Is it possible that the person you see is her?
01:17:10Xiaowan.
01:17:11Xiaowan.
01:17:11impossible impossible what nonsense are you spouting master don't jump to conclusions
01:17:20just think carefully did your daughter have any birthmarks that could identify her i recall
01:17:25xiawan had a bluish birthmark on her right ankle
01:17:28this cold case has haunted you for years how could you forgive
01:17:41eunuch way so easily the bishia sword brought a life of solitude serving evil forces no different
01:17:48from a walking corpse he and yi hui jin were destined to be exceptional talents of our time
01:17:53yet one clung to stubborn ignorance the other schemed endlessly both met tragic ends truly
01:17:59it's heartbreaking to witness don't you see how similar they are to us in that crucial moment
01:18:06conscience overcame hatred exposing the devil's disguise now that justice prevails and wrongs
01:18:13are righted your seven years of perseverance have finally paid off not me we did this together
01:18:19hey how come you're moon watching without me come here my bad yener i shouldn't have left you behind
01:18:31next time i promise we'll play together every day deal that's more like it by the way yener have
01:18:37you truly remembered where our families secret firearms are hidden mm-hmm but big brother told me to forget
01:18:44it never recall it again this way the world loses a source of ambition and gains peace let's pinky swear
01:18:53on it pinky swear
