00:00:00Lady Aveline Sterling from the Montagues, a woman of virtue, diligent and gentle, hereby
00:00:05bestow the title of first-ranked Lady of Honor, by Imperial Decree.
00:00:10We humbly thank His Majesty for his grace.
00:00:21Murder!
00:00:22Murder!
00:00:23Duh!
00:00:24Hey!
00:00:25Someone's been killed!
00:00:27Murder!
00:00:28Murder!
00:00:30OK!
00:00:41Sister?
00:00:43Why-
00:00:44DON'T CALL ME SISTER!
00:00:45YOU ARE UNWORTHY!
00:00:46We are both daughters of the Sterling Family, why should you live better than me?
00:00:50If only Adrian Montag caught my Bridal Pope three years ago.
00:00:55A sword being over is nothing but an illusion.
00:01:03If I were given another chance, I would rather forsake all of these honors.
00:01:25Master, I have already spread the word.
00:01:33The noblemen from all around have heard that our daughters of the Sterling family are seeking husbands and are eager to compete for them.
00:01:40For a son-in-law of our family, at the very least, he must be a man of great status.
00:01:45You two better aim at the right man.
00:01:47Whichever of you marries well shall bring glory to our family.
00:01:49Have I been reborn two three years ago?
00:01:53The very day of the husband seeking bridal bond.
00:01:55My lady, it's time to cast your bond.
00:02:01Sister, please let me go first.
00:02:04In my past life, Josephine insists that I go first.
00:02:10Feigning modesty and humility.
00:02:12Yet now, it seems, Josephine has also been reborn.
00:02:19Lady Josephine, this way!
00:02:22Give it to me!
00:02:23Lady Josephine, come on!
00:02:27In this life, I have to marry Adrian!
00:02:38Tim, Adrian, second son of the Montagues.
00:02:41The Montague family are relatives of the royal family, which means we shall become royal king as well!
00:02:47I actually altered my fate.
00:02:51Three years later, Adrian shall rise in rank, and I shall become a noble lady of honor!
00:02:58Josephine, you have schemed relentlessly.
00:03:01But little do you know, that you're gonna suffer a lot in the evil Montague family.
00:03:07Great, great, great!
00:03:09The whole family is counting on you!
00:03:10Oh, stop flattering me!
00:03:12I'm doing this just for our family.
00:03:14Once I become Lady Montague, I shall be mindful of my words and actions, bringing prosperity to our family.
00:03:21Sister, what do you say?
00:03:24You are truly fortunate.
00:03:26As your sister, I am happy for you.
00:03:29Evelyn, Lady Luck is with me this time.
00:03:32In this life, I will never let you overshadow me again.
00:03:41That is...
00:03:42Your Majesty!
00:03:45Your Majesty!
00:03:47Master, if the Empress tower would you find, you're dressed like this.
00:03:51Mother's been always pressing me.
00:03:53I can only leave the palace for some peace.
00:03:56This is a perfect chance to experience the life of ordinary folk.
00:03:59Hurry, Mr. Darling, let's go!
00:04:02The bridal ball for marriage!
00:04:03Let's have a look.
00:04:05In my past life, that beggar caught my bridal ball.
00:04:08I had to run away and that suffer a lot.
00:04:10This time, I shall let you taste the pain of being abandoned by your own kin.
00:04:16Master, our family has now secured ties with the Montagues.
00:04:21Evelyn, now it's your turn.
00:04:23And you better aim as well as Josephine.
00:04:25Mother, how could you say such a thing?
00:04:28Sister has always been lucky and she would never bring shame upon us.
00:04:32In my opinion, in the moment, she will surely get the finest husband.
00:04:41Powerful or not, rich or not, it's only written on water.
00:04:46In this life, I seek only a true companion to live a peaceful life till the end.
00:04:51It's him.
00:05:06It's him.
00:05:07The beggar that Josephine ran away from.
00:05:09Oh no, it actually went to a beggar.
00:05:16Sister, what terrible luck you have.
00:05:19A beggar out of so many people down there.
00:05:21How do you expect father to hold his head high?
00:05:24Damn it!
00:05:25With so many people down there, how could you cast it to a beggar?
00:05:29Are you deliberately trying to shame me?
00:05:31What's done is done, sister.
00:05:33Do not be too upset.
00:05:34Though he is of lowly birth, but look, at least he got a pretty face.
00:05:40It is only a pity for you, sister, raising comfort and luxury.
00:05:43But now bound to a beggar, you shall have to labor yourself to earn your bread.
00:05:49Now this will be quite the spectacle.
00:05:51The esteemed Lady Evelyn will marry a beggar?
00:05:53Everyone is watching.
00:05:54If she refuses, it's going to ruin their credit.
00:05:57Who would associate with them more?
00:05:58Hey, hey, hey, seize her!
00:06:04Don't let her escape!
00:06:05Master, how did this bridal bull end up in your hands?
00:06:08What should we do now?
00:06:09It's the Scottish!
00:06:11I'm dressed in such rags.
00:06:13She won't agree.
00:06:17Sister, why are you running?
00:06:19You cast the bridal bull yourself!
00:06:22You damn girl!
00:06:24Look at the filthy beggar you've got!
00:06:26If he becomes my son-in-law, it's going to be a huge disgrace to us!
00:06:33In my past life, I was mistreated by the Montagues and used for Sterling's ambitions.
00:06:39Thinking back now, perhaps marrying a beggar would be a better fate.
00:06:43The rule of the bridal bull is binding.
00:06:46Since he caught the bull, you should...
00:06:48I am willing to marry him.
00:06:50My name is Evelyn Sterling.
00:07:01What's yours?
00:07:03I am Lu...
00:07:04Lucas Prescott.
00:07:10With all present as my witnesses today,
00:07:14I, Evelyn Sterling,
00:07:15Willing take Lucas Prescott as my husband?
00:07:24Are you serious?
00:07:27Yeah.
00:07:29The ball is in your hands.
00:07:31You wanna...
00:07:32reject me?
00:07:34I didn't.
00:07:35It's just that I'm poor as hell.
00:07:38Marrying me would mean a life of a certainty.
00:07:41Are you sure?
00:07:41We're not disabled or something.
00:07:46We may be poor now, but we can always earn our money.
00:07:50We can work hard to make a living ourselves.
00:07:54I've never seen someone so easily content.
00:07:57He's just a filthy beggar!
00:07:59You're really gonna marry him?
00:08:01Evelyn, you're sure about this?
00:08:04Marry this beggar,
00:08:06and your future is ruined!
00:08:08I do not believe that is true.
00:08:09No, future won't be decided like that.
00:08:12Lucas,
00:08:13he may be in rags now,
00:08:15but I can see his humility and good manner.
00:08:18He's gonna make a difference, maybe.
00:08:20You are...
00:08:21Rule is rule.
00:08:23You're not eating your words,
00:08:25are you, sir?
00:08:25Indeed.
00:08:26If he refuses,
00:08:28that's breaking the rules
00:08:29and gonna ruin their reputation.
00:08:31Seems well,
00:08:31she has to marry him.
00:08:32Indeed, marry him!
00:08:33Indeed, marry him!
00:08:34Indeed, marry him!
00:08:35Since you wanna marry him,
00:08:37don't blame us in the future.
00:08:39You won't get a share
00:08:41of the coming glory of us!
00:08:43I understand.
00:08:44The matchmaking is concluded.
00:08:47Everyone disperse!
00:08:51Sister,
00:08:52no hard feelings.
00:08:55But marrying a beggar
00:08:57means you will spend your life beneath me.
00:09:01You should worry about yourself.
00:09:04Life with the Montague's
00:09:04constitutes
00:09:05is not as easy
00:09:07as you imagine.
00:09:08Hmph!
00:09:16You...
00:09:16In three days,
00:09:22remember to come
00:09:22to propose.
00:09:23It's her
00:09:24or Mother's
00:09:25pressing.
00:09:26So I might as well...
00:09:27All right!
00:09:28I'll be there.
00:09:29Today,
00:09:35the second daughter
00:09:35of the Sarlene family
00:09:36is to be wed.
00:09:38Her dowry includes
00:09:39a pair of
00:09:39gold phoenix hairpins
00:09:40laid with precious gems,
00:09:42plenty of boats
00:09:43of fine brocade,
00:09:44three land deeds
00:09:45for silk shops
00:09:46in the Eastern District.
00:09:47Lady Josephine Sterling's
00:09:48salary is worth a fortune,
00:09:50yet Lady Evelyn Sterling
00:09:51has nothing at all.
00:09:52They're both daughters
00:09:53of the Sarlene family,
00:09:54but the difference
00:09:54between them
00:09:55is astonishing.
00:09:56Sister,
00:09:57after marrying a beggar,
00:09:58you will likely toil
00:09:59for the rest of your life.
00:10:00I wonder if you can
00:10:01even endure such life.
00:10:11It's the bridegroom.
00:10:12The bridegroom has arrived.
00:10:15Oh,
00:10:16as expected
00:10:17of the second son
00:10:18of the Montague family,
00:10:19the spectacle
00:10:20is grand indeed.
00:10:21Of course,
00:10:21the Montagues
00:10:22hold immense power.
00:10:23Marrying into their family,
00:10:24Lady Josephine Sterling
00:10:25will live a life
00:10:26of endless luxury.
00:10:27Unlike Evelyn,
00:10:28marrying a beggar,
00:10:29this will certainly
00:10:30be an interesting sign
00:10:30to behold.
00:10:32My respects
00:10:32to my honor,
00:10:33father,
00:10:33and mother-in-law.
00:10:34Please rise,
00:10:35my son-in-law.
00:10:35My son-in-law.
00:10:36Such an elaborate
00:10:37wedding procession
00:10:39is a spectacle
00:10:39worthy of Highgate.
00:10:41For our dear Josephine
00:10:42to be regarded
00:10:43so highly by you
00:10:44is an honor
00:10:45to the Sterling family.
00:10:49Sister,
00:10:51the auspicious hour
00:10:52is nearly over.
00:10:53Why has your husband
00:10:53not come for you?
00:10:54Could it be that
00:10:55he's not coming at all?
00:10:58I,
00:11:04your humble son-in-law,
00:11:05greet my honored
00:11:06father-in-law.
00:11:12My lady.
00:11:17My lady.
00:11:18Are you here to beg
00:11:19for the alms
00:11:19or take a bride?
00:11:21Dressed in such rags,
00:11:22do you not feel ashamed?
00:11:23Compared to Lord Montague,
00:11:25you're as far apart
00:11:25as heaven and earth.
00:11:28Just what are you wearing?
00:11:29In front of so many
00:11:31esteemed officials,
00:11:32are you not bringing
00:11:33shame upon me?
00:11:34Today is your wedding day.
00:11:36And yet,
00:11:37you came dressed like this?
00:11:38Do you not find
00:11:39this is a disgrace?
00:11:40Do you not find
00:11:41this humiliating?
00:11:42Marriage is a lifelong commitment,
00:11:44building upon sincerity,
00:11:45not mere appearances.
00:11:46The men I,
00:11:47Evelyn Sterling,
00:11:48have chosen
00:11:48is not one whose worth
00:11:50can be swayed
00:11:50by idle words.
00:11:51Have you not
00:11:52embarrassed us enough?
00:11:54Master,
00:11:55do not be angered.
00:11:57From the moment
00:11:57Evelyn steps beyond
00:11:58this threshold,
00:12:00she'll no longer
00:12:01be a Sterling.
00:12:02The auspicious hour
00:12:03has arrived.
00:12:04Bring the bride
00:12:05to the carriage.
00:12:05This is dead.
00:12:17Congratulations,
00:12:18Master Sterling.
00:12:19Your son-in-law
00:12:20is truly an exceptional man.
00:12:24Many thanks,
00:12:25Deputy Minister.
00:12:26Please come inside.
00:12:27Off to you.
00:12:30Surely you didn't arrive
00:12:32on foot today.
00:12:34On such a big day,
00:12:35will you have
00:12:35the bride walk
00:12:36all the way
00:12:37to your home?
00:12:39Unheard of.
00:12:40Indeed.
00:12:41Not like my husband.
00:12:46My lady,
00:12:47please,
00:12:48allow me to take you home.
00:12:49Bow to the heavens
00:13:09and the earth.
00:13:11Is this the place
00:13:12they've found us
00:13:13to live in?
00:13:14Bow to the elders.
00:13:16Yes.
00:13:16A shabby place
00:13:21like this,
00:13:21is it even fit
00:13:22for living?
00:13:22I just didn't want
00:13:23you to blow your cover.
00:13:25And bow to each other
00:13:26as husband and wife.
00:13:34The ceremony
00:13:35is complete!
00:13:38My lady,
00:13:39I have put you
00:13:40through hardship
00:13:40having a life with me
00:13:42in such a shabby place.
00:13:43Not at all.
00:13:44I actually think
00:13:46it's rather spacious.
00:13:48At least,
00:13:49it shields us
00:13:49from the wind and rain.
00:13:52If we work hard
00:13:53from now on,
00:13:53keep this place tidy,
00:13:55it'll soon feel
00:13:56much more comfortable.
00:13:57At this moment,
00:13:58I have nothing
00:13:59of value to give you.
00:14:01This shade pendant
00:14:02was left to me
00:14:03by my father.
00:14:04I've carried it
00:14:05with me all these years.
00:14:07And now,
00:14:08I'm giving it
00:14:09to you.
00:14:14It's so precious.
00:14:16Are you certain
00:14:17of it?
00:14:20All right.
00:14:21I will cherish it well.
00:14:23you're up.
00:14:49Breakfast is ready
00:14:50for you.
00:14:51Hi.
00:14:55Where are you going?
00:14:57Today is the
00:14:58wife's homecoming day.
00:14:59I may tell them
00:15:00as for my parents,
00:15:01but they're not
00:15:01quite finished.
00:15:02I need to buy
00:15:02some more threats
00:15:03and complete them
00:15:04before I return home.
00:15:05All right.
00:15:06I'll go with you.
00:15:07All right.
00:15:09Let's go.
00:15:14Greetings,
00:15:15your majesty!
00:15:16Greetings,
00:15:21your majesty!
00:15:21Greetings, your majesty!
00:15:26Who are they?
00:15:27The palace is too complicated.
00:15:29Once everything's settled,
00:15:30I'll reveal my identity
00:15:31to Evelyn.
00:15:32They are...
00:15:33They're here for Victor.
00:15:37Yes, yes.
00:15:42I used to serve
00:15:43in the palace.
00:15:44These are all
00:15:44old acquaintances.
00:15:48Evelyn,
00:15:49I'll help Victor
00:15:50to entertain the guests.
00:15:51Will you be all right
00:15:52buying threat
00:15:52on your own?
00:15:55Yes.
00:15:55Speak!
00:16:09What happened?
00:16:10The Empress Dowager
00:16:10distressed over
00:16:11your majesty's presence
00:16:12and suddenly collapsed.
00:16:13What?
00:16:14Victor,
00:16:14stay here
00:16:15and protect your Evelyn.
00:16:16Let's head back.
00:16:17Yes, your majesty.
00:16:18Get someone
00:16:19to deliver
00:16:20some valuable gifts
00:16:20to Sterling Estate.
00:16:22Say that they're
00:16:22Evelyn's homecoming gifts.
00:16:24Yes, your majesty.
00:16:25Let's go.
00:16:26Father.
00:16:27Mother.
00:16:28Your daughter has returned.
00:16:31Father.
00:16:32Why has sister
00:16:34returned alone?
00:16:39Today is your
00:16:40homecoming day.
00:16:42Sister,
00:16:42why have you
00:16:43returned alone?
00:16:44Are you ashamed
00:16:45of your beggar husband?
00:16:47So you didn't even
00:16:48bring him to meet
00:16:49the family.
00:16:49My husband wanted
00:16:50to come,
00:16:51but something
00:16:52urgent came up.
00:16:53Since being married
00:16:54to the beggar,
00:16:54Lady Evelyn
00:16:55and Sterling
00:16:56must have suffered
00:16:57a great deal.
00:16:58You look much
00:16:58frailer than before.
00:17:01Had you not
00:17:02married that filthy beggar,
00:17:03perhaps I would have
00:17:04taken you
00:17:05as a concubine.
00:17:06At least you wouldn't
00:17:06have fallen to such
00:17:07a state.
00:17:08That will not be
00:17:09necessary.
00:17:10I am living well.
00:17:11As of for you,
00:17:12sister,
00:17:13it has been
00:17:13quite a few days
00:17:14since you had
00:17:15seen your husband
00:17:16before.
00:17:16you...
00:17:17Screw you,
00:17:19Adrian.
00:17:19Went drinking
00:17:20with corsets
00:17:21on our wedding
00:17:21night and now
00:17:22everyone knows
00:17:23we are utterly
00:17:24humiliating me.
00:17:25Josephine.
00:17:26father,
00:17:31mother.
00:17:32Greetings to you
00:17:33both.
00:17:34Greetings to you
00:17:35both.
00:17:36You've returned
00:17:36alone.
00:17:37How can you
00:17:38still have the
00:17:38face to come back?
00:17:39What does your
00:17:40husband do all day,
00:17:41not even
00:17:42accompanying you
00:17:43for your
00:17:43homecoming?
00:17:44Mother,
00:17:45you're thinking
00:17:46too highly of her.
00:17:47That filthy beggar
00:17:48is probably begging
00:17:49in the streets
00:17:50right now.
00:17:51How could he
00:17:51possibly compare
00:17:52to my husband?
00:17:54Father-in-law,
00:17:56your humble son-in-law
00:17:56has brought a
00:17:57small gift.
00:18:03Our dear
00:18:04Josephine has
00:18:05truly found
00:18:05herself a fine
00:18:06husband.
00:18:07For our
00:18:07daughter to marry
00:18:08such a fine
00:18:08gentleman,
00:18:09it must be the
00:18:10blessing she has
00:18:10earned over
00:18:11eight lifetimes.
00:18:12Unlike someone
00:18:14who chose a beggar
00:18:15as her husband,
00:18:16our sterling family
00:18:17has raised you
00:18:18for so many years.
00:18:19And yet you
00:18:20come back
00:18:20empty-handed
00:18:21on your
00:18:21homecoming day.
00:18:23Indeed,
00:18:24sister.
00:18:25This is my
00:18:26homecoming gift.
00:18:27Have you
00:18:27fallen into
00:18:28such poverty
00:18:29that you cannot
00:18:29even afford
00:18:30a proper
00:18:30homecoming gift?
00:18:38Father,
00:18:39mother,
00:18:40these are
00:18:41the two
00:18:41protective
00:18:41talamans
00:18:42I made
00:18:42for you by
00:18:42hand.
00:18:43A blessing
00:18:43to you both.
00:18:44Wishing you
00:18:44peace and
00:18:45prosperity.
00:18:46Oh!
00:18:47Oh!
00:18:48Oh!
00:18:49Get out!
00:18:51What a
00:18:52disgrace!
00:18:53Sister,
00:18:54is this
00:18:55truly what
00:18:55you've
00:18:55brought?
00:18:56A few
00:18:56scraps of
00:18:57cloth
00:18:57with
00:18:58embroidery.
00:18:59How dare
00:18:59you present
00:19:00these?
00:19:00Well,
00:19:01she did
00:19:01marry a
00:19:02beggar.
00:19:03So her
00:19:03gift
00:19:03befits
00:19:04her status
00:19:05perfectly.
00:19:06Ha ha ha ha!
00:19:07Oh,
00:19:07right.
00:19:08She has
00:19:09married a
00:19:09beggar.
00:19:10What else
00:19:10could we
00:19:11expect from
00:19:11her?
00:19:11Ha ha ha!
00:19:13Ha ha ha!
00:19:13Ha ha ha!
00:19:15Ha ha ha!
00:19:15Ha ha ha!
00:19:16Ha ha ha!
00:19:16Master,
00:19:18Madame,
00:19:19someone from
00:19:19the palace

00:19:21they are
00:19:21the homecoming
00:19:22gifts from
00:19:22Lady Evelyn.
00:19:27Master
00:19:27Sterling,
00:19:28who exactly
00:19:28has your
00:19:29eldest daughter
00:19:29married
00:19:30mountain
00:19:30nobility?
00:19:31Even the
00:19:31palace saw fit
00:19:32to have me
00:19:32personally
00:19:33deliver these
00:19:33gifts to
00:19:34you.
00:19:34You must
00:19:34hold great
00:19:35influence
00:19:35indeed.
00:19:36Gifts
00:19:36from the
00:19:36palace?
00:19:37Then it
00:19:37must be
00:19:38from
00:19:38his
00:19:38majesty's
00:19:38name
00:19:38itself.
00:19:39It
00:19:39was
00:19:39personally
00:19:40arranged
00:19:40by the
00:19:40chief
00:19:41eunuch
00:19:41at
00:19:41his
00:19:41majesty's
00:19:42side.
00:19:42He
00:19:42said
00:19:43for
00:19:43the
00:19:44Starling
00:19:44family's
00:19:45eldest
00:19:47daughter.
00:19:50Mr.
00:19:51Ashford,
00:19:52you must
00:19:52be
00:19:52mistaken.
00:19:54All of
00:19:54Highgate
00:19:55knows
00:19:55that
00:19:56Evelyn
00:19:56married a
00:19:57beggar.
00:19:58How could
00:19:59she possibly
00:19:59have ties to
00:20:00anyone in
00:20:01the palace?
00:20:02Oh,
00:20:03this must
00:20:04surely be
00:20:05a courtesy
00:20:05to
00:20:06young
00:20:07Master
00:20:07Montague.
00:20:08Indeed.
00:20:11In this
00:20:11world,
00:20:12those seeking
00:20:13favor with
00:20:13the Montague
00:20:14family are
00:20:14countless.
00:20:15Even those
00:20:16in the palace
00:20:16are paying
00:20:17their respects.
00:20:18Father-in-law,
00:20:19please accept
00:20:19with joy.
00:20:22Josephine
00:20:22has married
00:20:23a remarkable
00:20:24husband.
00:20:25Just look
00:20:25at the
00:20:25grandeur of
00:20:26her homecoming.
00:20:27Such lavish
00:20:28gifts.
00:20:29Our
00:20:29Sterling
00:20:29family is
00:20:30truly honored
00:20:30beyond measure.
00:20:33The gifts
00:20:34have been
00:20:34delivered.
00:20:35I shall
00:20:35take my
00:20:36leave.
00:20:37Oh,
00:20:37take care.
00:20:38Take care.
00:20:41Sister,
00:20:42my husband
00:20:43has prepared
00:20:43two sets
00:20:44of homecoming
00:20:44gifts.
00:20:45Seeing all
00:20:46these,
00:20:46do you not
00:20:47feel ashamed?
00:20:48It's not
00:20:49about the
00:20:49quality of
00:20:49gifts,
00:20:50but the
00:20:50sincerity
00:20:50behind them.
00:20:51I see
00:20:52nothing
00:20:52inappropriate
00:20:52in this.
00:20:53I've poured
00:20:54my heart
00:20:55and effort
00:20:55into raising
00:20:55you,

00:20:59back these
00:20:59worthless
00:20:59rags to
00:21:00disgrace

00:21:01The
00:21:01Sterling
00:21:01family has
00:21:02no place
00:21:02for such
00:21:03a
00:21:03disgraceful
00:21:03daughter.
00:21:04Simply
00:21:05because I
00:21:05married
00:21:06Lucas,
00:21:06you feel
00:21:07justified

00:21:17Disgrace?

00:21:29truth?
00:21:31In
00:21:31your eyes,
00:21:33a daughter
00:21:34is nothing
00:21:34more than
00:21:34a pawn
00:21:35to secure
00:21:35power and
00:21:36favor?
00:21:37Outrageous!

00:55:08i'll accept any punishment or scolding you see fit
00:55:11why would i scold you
00:55:23so you're willing to forgive me
00:55:27you're not
00:55:28entirely a bad person
00:55:31it's just that your words can be utterly vicious
00:55:42let's go
00:55:47your majesty
00:55:48i believe
00:55:49his majesty's insistence on making lady evelyn the empress
00:55:52does not seem like a mere impulse
00:55:55lady evelyn truly possesses remarkable qualities
00:56:00let's eat a chestnut cake
00:56:02it was her
00:56:12it was you who seduced his majesty
00:56:17that stuck the face of yours
00:56:19no wonder you can't stay out of trouble
00:56:21his majesty's finding a bride outside the palace's room
00:56:24but when did
00:56:25your lowly servant
00:56:26dare to entertain such wicked thoughts
00:56:28when did evelyn ever seduce his majesty
00:56:30isabella
00:56:31have you forgotten how much we suffered because of her
00:56:33evelyn never once provoked me intentionally
00:56:35it was you
00:56:36who kept picking fights deliberately
00:56:38isabella
00:56:40do you even know who i am
00:56:43how dare you act so insolently in my presence
00:56:45what a fool
00:56:47i heard from eleanor that you not only seduced his majesty
00:56:49but also entangled yourself with the guards
00:56:51the person standing before you is lady caldwell
00:56:53the daughter of chancellor caldwell
00:56:55she is the one the empress dodge rager has chosen to be empress
00:56:58what a fool
00:56:59since lady caldwell is the esteemed daughter of the chancellor
00:57:02surely you are a reasonable person
00:57:03we have never even met his majesty
00:57:05so how could there be any talk of seduction
00:57:07i beg you lady caldwell spare me
00:57:09i heard from eleanor that you not only seduced his majesty
00:57:13but also entangled yourself with the guards
00:57:15that face of yours is too dangerous to keep in front of you
00:57:18stop
00:57:24stop
00:57:34the imperial household bureau is part of the harem
00:57:45since when is it your place to interfere
00:57:47a mere old servant
00:57:49there is to raise your voice in front of me
00:57:51you
00:57:52how dare you
00:57:53his majesty and i grew up together
00:57:56i am the only candidate for emphasis
00:57:58the harm will be mine sooner or later
00:57:59dealing the lowly maid is nothing to me
00:58:02preposterous
00:58:03do you even know who stands before you

00:59:54what did you say

00:59:57What are you doing?
01:00:10It was me who offended Lady Cabin, and I did not wish for him, who suffered punishment on my account.
01:00:17Since you're so eager to play the hero, I shall grant your wish today.
01:00:21Enough!
01:00:22Anna Caldwell, Her Majesty, advises you not to go too far, otherwise...
01:00:26You called yourself Her Majesty again, you reckless wretch?
01:00:29Today, I shall teach you the rules on behalf of the Empress Dowager!
01:00:32Anna Caldwell!
01:00:35Do you know who you are about to whip?
01:00:38Your Majesty...
01:00:39I greet the Empress Dowager.
01:00:44I greet Her Majesty, the Empress Dowager?
01:00:48How could she possibly be the Empress Dowager?
01:00:50How could she possibly be the Empress Dowager?
01:00:58How is this possible?
01:01:00Her Majesty was merely testing you, but she never expected you to be so insolent.
01:01:05How dare you overstep and offend Her Majesty herself!
01:01:09Your Majesty, this humble subject admits her fault!
01:01:13I failed to recognize that you were the Empress Dowager.
01:01:15I beg your Majesty for forgiveness!
01:01:17I beg the Emperor for mercy!
01:01:19The Emperor...
01:01:24This humble official believes this matter is of great importance.
01:01:27It concerns the dignity of the Empress Dowager.
01:01:28I implore your Majesty to carefully consider the matter.
01:01:37Exactly.
01:01:38How could you dare to offend the Empress Dowager?
01:01:42Admit your fault at once!
01:01:43That the temple subject admits my fault!
01:01:46Your Majesty!
01:01:47It was this wretched maid!
01:01:48She told me...
01:01:49To seduce His Majesty!
01:01:52This is why I lost my composure!
01:01:54Lady Caldwell!
01:01:55It was clear to you!
01:01:56Simon!
01:01:56If it weren't for your manipulation,
01:01:57how could I have spoken so recklessly before the Empress Dowager?
01:02:00The palace maid Eleanor Fairfox has spread rumors and caused trouble.
01:02:04Take her away and sell her at once!
01:02:06The palace maid Eleanor Fairfox has spread rumors and caused trouble.
01:02:10Take her away and sell her at once!
01:02:11Your Majesty, have mercy!
01:02:13I did not spread rumors!
01:02:14I saw Evelyn flirting with the guards!
01:02:16I truly did not spread rumors!
01:02:18Your Majesty!
01:02:19I beg your Majesty!
01:02:20You are the eldest daughter of the Sturdy Camper!
01:02:22How dare you!
01:02:22Anna Caldwell!
01:02:23I always believed you to be a kind-hearted,
01:02:25yet I never expected you to be ruthless!
01:02:28You've overstepped your place
01:02:29and still dared to dream of becoming Empress!
01:02:31You're sentenced to one year in the Office of Discipline
01:02:33to reflect on your actions!
01:02:34Office of Discipline?
01:02:35No!
01:02:36Your Majesty!
01:02:36This almost has to convince her faults!
01:02:38Your Majesty!
01:02:39Please spare me!
01:02:40I do not want to go to the Office of Discipline!
01:02:43I have questions for you.
01:02:44Where is Her Majesty taking them?
01:03:03Evelyn!
01:03:05Lucas!
01:03:06Did the Empress tell you to punish you?
01:03:07Of course not!
01:03:08Her Majesty wished to discuss the Spring Blossom Banquet with me!
01:03:12That's a relief!
01:03:14Evelyn!
01:03:17Evelyn has passed the test!
01:03:18Wonderful!
01:03:19I will reveal my identity to her
01:03:21and make her my Empress!
01:03:22There is no need to rush the coronation!
01:03:25The Ministry of Rights is preparing
01:03:26for the Spring Blossom Banquet next month!
01:03:29They may not have enough resources to manage both!
01:03:32Moreover, this matter is too sudden!
01:03:35I'm concerned the other Ministers may object!
01:03:38Mother!
01:03:38Why not let Evelyn organize the Spring Blossom Banquet?
01:03:41If she can manage this banquet,
01:03:43it will not only prove her capability,
01:03:44but also make her coronation more acceptable to everyone!
01:03:48Her Majesty wants you to take charge of the Spring Blossom Banquet!
01:03:51Me?
01:03:53I don't know how to organize it!
01:03:57Don't worry!
01:03:59Trust your abilities!
01:04:00You shall triumph!
01:04:01I'll also assist you behind the scenes!
01:04:07Alright!
01:04:07Get moving, all of you!
01:04:16If anyone there is a slack-off,
01:04:18my whip shows no mercy!
01:04:25Useless fool!
01:04:27Do you still think you're a pampered young lady?
01:04:29Huh?
01:04:30Once you're in the office of discipline,
01:04:31no one gets to laze around!
01:04:33Everyone, Sterling!
01:04:39This is all your fault!
01:04:43Get him!
01:04:43Don't touch me!
01:04:45I'm the daughter of Chancellor Cladwell!
01:04:47But I better show some respect!
01:04:49The daughter of Chancellor Cladwell!
01:04:57In my past life,
01:04:57Adrian Montauk was promoted by the Empress Elwiger
01:04:59during the Spring Blossom Banquet!
01:05:01If I can escape this wretched place,
01:05:04and find a way to bring Adrian to the Spring Blossom Banquet,
01:05:07I can surely turn things around!
01:05:09What a wretched place!
01:05:16They expect me, a lady,
01:05:17to wash my clothes myself?
01:05:21Where did this lowly maid come from?
01:05:23I...
01:05:23Lady, I have an urgent request.
01:05:29When?
01:05:29Why should I help you?
01:05:31I am a noble bird.
01:05:33Were it not for this temporary misfortune,
01:05:35you wouldn't even be worthy to speak to me.
01:05:38My elder sister, Evelyn Sterling,
01:05:42is the reason I was in prison here!
01:05:44If you help escape,
01:05:45I shall be forever indebted to you.
01:05:50Evelyn Sterling?
01:05:56Not bad.
01:05:57The banquet itinerary is clear and well-structured.
01:06:00It is evident that much effort was put into it.
01:06:02Entrusting you at the banquet's organization
01:06:04was indeed a wide choice.
01:06:06Many thanks for Your Majesty's praise.
01:06:07Your Majesty!
01:06:08Terrible news!
01:06:10The Office of Discipline is on fire!
01:06:11What?
01:06:19Sir!
01:06:20What is the situation inside?
01:06:21The fire has invoked the entire rear courtyard.
01:06:23Nearly half the people couldn't make it out!
01:06:26Anna Caldwell.
01:06:27The Office of Discipline is a place I cannot enjoy even for a single day longer!
01:06:45As long as you're alive,
01:06:46At least this allows me to account for your well-being to your father.
01:06:49Enough!
01:06:49With your temperament, staying in the Office of Discipline would serve no purpose.
01:06:53Next month, you shall be the one to marry into Lior Empire.
01:06:55What?
01:06:56What?
01:06:57I married a lie?
01:06:58What?
01:06:59Are you unwilling?
01:07:00Or would you prefer to continue staying in the Office of Discipline?
01:07:02No.
01:07:03This humble subject humbly obeys Your Majesty's decree.
01:07:17I shall depart for the marriage alliance next month.
01:07:23However, I have an impertinent request.
01:07:26I was able to escape this calamity.
01:07:28Thanks to Josephine Sterling risking her life to save,
01:07:31I dare to ask that Your Majesty release Josephine Sterling from the Office of Discipline.
01:07:35I pay your respects to Your Majesty.
01:07:37I remember.
01:07:42Josephine is your sister.
01:07:45Tell me.
01:07:47How should I reward her?
01:07:52Empress Dowager.
01:07:53We were never close since childhood.
01:07:56Our bond is not strong.
01:07:57I don't get a say in this.
01:08:00Since you have agreed to the marriage alliance, then so be it.
01:08:04Let's go back.
01:08:07Thank you for your grace.
01:08:18Evelyn Sterling.
01:08:20I thought you had sworn high already.
01:08:24Turns out you're still that low.
01:08:27You've ruined our parents and montags.
01:08:29And also got me thrown into the Office of Discipline.
01:08:32About that,
01:08:33I will make sure you pay it.
01:08:37Let me out, please.
01:08:48This is driving me crazy.
01:08:55You don't get to complain.
01:08:57If it weren't for you and Josephine, two fools, I wouldn't have offended His Majesty and lost my position.
01:09:04It's all Josephine's fault.
01:09:06The Empress Dowager pardoned me.
01:09:15I'm released from Office of Discipline.
01:09:17After everything you put us through,
01:09:19you still have the guts to come back?
01:09:21Edmund.
01:09:22It's all because Evelyn.
01:09:24Instead of blaming each other here,
01:09:26we should think how to get back at her.
01:09:29Get back at her?
01:09:32She's like royalty now.
01:09:34How'd you get back at her, huh?
01:09:36I saw her once at the Office of Discipline.
01:09:39She was wearing a lonely palace-based uniform.
01:09:43I don't think she's royal.
01:09:45A palace maid?
01:09:47Could it be that His Majesty married her on a whim?
01:09:50Totally.
01:09:51If His Majesty really liked her, why would she be wearing that uniform?
01:09:55Spring Blossom Banquet is coming.
01:09:58All the nobles will be present then.
01:10:01It's the perfect opportunity.
01:10:03Spring Blossom Banquet.
01:10:05We're invited too.
01:10:07So I can go then?
01:10:11What are you scheming this time?
01:10:15Don't worry.
01:10:16At the banquet, I'll impress everyone.
01:10:19As long as I win the Empress Dowager's favor,
01:10:22our family will rise again.
01:10:46It's going to be all nobles and high officials.
01:10:48Check everything thoroughly.
01:10:50We cannot afford any mistakes.
01:10:54Oh, stop worrying.
01:10:56We've confirmed every detail multiple times already.
01:10:58There won't be any problems.
01:11:00Let's hope so.
01:11:03Avalyn.
01:11:04Avalyn, if you like these pastries, I can get you more.
01:11:16I'm glad this is a remote area with no patrols.
01:11:25Otherwise, I can't meet like this.
01:11:27Avalyn.
01:11:36Avalyn.
01:11:38Once the banquet ends, wait for me here.
01:11:41I got something to tell you.
01:11:43All right.
01:11:44I'll wait for you here.
01:11:45Husband, look over there.
01:11:54Look over there.
01:11:59Avalyn.
01:12:00And a palace guard.
01:12:01Oh, right.
01:12:06You're on duty today.
01:12:08Let's hurry back.
01:12:11Remember, wait for me here.
01:12:13Okay.
01:12:14Take these.
01:12:15Hey, you really can't go a moment without a man.
01:12:23Just got tossed aside by his majesty, and now you're ready with the guard.
01:12:28This is the Imperial Palace, not your place, all right?
01:12:41Everything you do here is washed by his majesty in the Empress Dowager.
01:12:45You were just released.
01:12:46Have you learned your lesson?
01:12:48My husband and I were invited here as honored guests for the banquet.
01:12:53You're nothing but a maid.
01:12:54If you serve us well, I may reward you.
01:12:59If not, you'll get kicked out.
01:13:02You were lucky to have gone away last time.
01:13:06No one can protect you this time.
01:13:10What do you mean?
01:13:12I want to destroy you.
01:13:14From head to toe.
01:13:17Greetings, Empress Dowager.
01:13:24Greetings, Empress Dowager.
01:13:30Evelyn.
01:13:32Preparing the banquet must be exhausting.
01:13:34Once it is over, I will reward you properly.
01:13:38It's just my duty.
01:13:39Thanks for your grace.
01:13:42Your Highness, I have something to say.
01:13:44Speak.
01:13:46I wish to report Evelyn's improper relationship with the guard.
01:13:52Oh?
01:13:52I saw it with my own eyes.
01:13:55Evelyn and a guard were extremely intimate.
01:13:58When caught, they tried to cover it up.
01:14:00If they're this bold in broad daylight, who knows what they do in secret?
01:14:05Your Highness, I did have a contact with a guard.
01:14:09But before entering the palace, we already had developed feelings.
01:14:12In the palace, we only met occasionally.
01:14:15There was nothing improper.
01:14:16If you weren't guilty, why did you hurry away in that moment you saw us?
01:14:21This should be punishable by death.
01:14:25Your Highness, I insist on seeing if this matter deserves punishment.
01:14:51Please make sure you commit yourself.
01:14:52Your NHS masks are so guilty, but I haven't read it.
01:14:54If so, yes.
01:14:54We'll see you then.
01:14:56They're not under the portal.
01:14:57We're about to get no doubt about your mouth.
01:14:58This should be.
01:14:59wortel
01:15:03His Congratulations.
01:15:05This is for the 94,000 Landscape Campo.
01:15:08Whose fender is roarsen樣?
01:15:10If we hold it, be sure.
01:15:14For 545 years, this will be dangerous.
01:15:16And then to second me,
