00:08:35Since you wanna marry him
00:08:37Don't blame us in the future
00:08:39You won't get a share of the coming glory of us
00:08:43I understand
00:08:45The matchmaking is concluded
00:08:47Everyone disperse
00:08:51Sister
00:08:52No hard feelings
00:08:55But marrying a beggar
00:08:58Means you will spend your life beneath me
00:09:01You should worry about yourself
00:09:04Life with the Monticeous is not as easy as you imagine
00:09:09It's not as easy as you imagine
00:09:16You
00:09:20In three days
00:09:21Remember to come to propose
00:09:23It's her or mother's pressing
00:09:26So I might as well
00:09:27All right
00:09:28I'll be there
00:09:34Today
00:09:35The second daughter of the Salou family is to be wed
00:09:37Her dowry includes
00:09:39A pair of gold phoenix hairpins
00:09:40And laid with precious gems
00:09:42Plenty of bolts of fine brocade
00:09:44Three land deeds for silk shops in the eastern district
00:09:47Lady Josephine Sterling's salary is worth a fortune
00:09:50Yet Lady Evelyn Sterling has nothing at all
00:09:52They're both daughters of the Starling family
00:09:54But the difference between them is astonishing
00:09:56Sister
00:09:57After marrying a beggar
00:09:58You will likely toil for the rest of your life
00:10:00I wonder if you can even endure such life
00:10:02It's the bridegroom
00:10:12The bridegroom has arrived
00:10:15Oh
00:10:16As expected of the second son
00:10:18Of the Montague family
00:10:19The spectacle is grand indeed
00:10:21Of course the Montagues hold immense power
00:10:23Marrying into their family
00:10:24Lady Josephine Sterling will live a life of endless luxury
00:10:27Unlike Evelyn marrying a beggar
00:10:29This will certainly be an interesting sight to behold
00:10:32My respects to my honor father and mother-in-law
00:10:34Please rise my son-in-law
00:10:35My son-in-law
00:10:36Such an elaborate wedding procession
00:10:39Is a spectacle worthy of Highgate
00:10:41For our dear Josephine to be regarded so highly by you
00:10:44Is an honor to the Sterling family
00:10:49Sister
00:10:51The auspicious hour is nearly over
00:10:52Why has your husband not come for you?
00:10:54Could it be that he's not coming at all?
00:10:59I, your humble son-in-law
00:11:05Greet my honored father-in-law
00:11:12My lady
00:11:17My lady
00:11:18Are you here to beg for the alms or take a bride?
00:11:20Dressed in such rags, do you not feel ashamed?
00:11:23Compared to Lord Montague
00:11:24You're as far apart as heaven and earth
00:11:28Just what are you wearing?
00:11:29In front of so many esteemed officials
00:11:32Are you not bringing shame upon me?
00:11:34Today is your wedding day
00:11:36And yet you came dressed like this?
00:11:38Do you not find this is a disgrace?
00:11:40Do you not finding this humiliating?
00:11:42Marriage is a lifelong commitment
00:11:44Building upon sincerity, not mere appearances
00:11:46The man I, Evelyn Sterling, have chosen
00:11:48Is not one whose worth can be swayed by idle words
00:11:51Have you not embarrassed us enough?
00:11:54Master
00:11:55Do not be anchored
00:11:56From the moment Evelyn steps beyond this threshold
00:12:00She'll no longer be a Sterling
00:12:02The auspicious hour has arrived
00:12:04Bring the bride to the carriage
00:12:06This is dead
00:12:17Congratulations Master Sterling
00:12:19Your son-in-law is truly an exceptional man
00:12:24Many thanks deputy minister
00:12:26Please come inside
00:12:27Off to you
00:12:31Surely you didn't arrive on foot today
00:12:32On such a big day
00:12:35Will you have the bride walk all the way to your home?
00:12:39Unheard of
00:12:40Indeed
00:12:41Not like my husband
00:12:47Milady, please
00:12:48Allow me to take you home
00:13:02Unheard of
00:13:08Bow to the heavens and the earth
00:13:11Is this the place you have found us to live in?
00:13:14Bow to the elders
00:13:20A shabby place like this
00:13:21Is it even fit for living?
00:13:22I just didn't want you to blow your cover
00:13:25And bow to each other as husband and wife
00:13:32The ceremony is complete
00:13:38Milady, I have put you through hardship
00:13:41Having a life with me in such a shabby place
00:13:43Not at all
00:13:44I actually think it's rather spacious
00:13:48At least it shields us from the wind and rain
00:13:52If we work hard from now on
00:13:53Keep this place tidy
00:13:55It'll soon feel much more comfortable
00:13:57At this moment I have nothing of value to give you
00:13:59The shade pendant was left to me by my father
00:14:04I've carried it with me all these years
00:14:07And now
00:14:08I'm giving it to you
00:14:14It's so precious
00:14:16Are you certain of it?
00:14:20All right
00:14:21I will cherish it well
00:14:29You're up
00:14:49Breakfast is ready
00:14:50For you
00:14:54Hi
00:14:55Where are you going?
00:14:56Today is the wife's homecoming day
00:14:59I may tell them as for my parents
00:15:00But they're not quite finished
00:15:02I need to buy some more threads
00:15:03And complete them before 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 your ma-
00:15:15Greetings your majesty
00:15:20Greetings your majesty
00:15:21Greetings your ma-
00:15:22Uh, just
00:15:23Uh, eh
00:15:24Who are they?
00:15:27The palace is too complicated
00:15:29Once everything's settled
00:15:30I'll reveal my identity to Evelyn
00:15:31They are
00:15:35They're here for Victor
00:15:41Yes, yes
00:15:42I used to serve in the palace
00:15:44These are all old acquaintances
00:15:48Evelyn
00:15:49I'll help Victor to entertain the guests
00:15:51Will you be all right buying threat on your own?
00:15:54Heh heh heh
00:15:55Yes
00:16:08Speak
00:16:09What happened?
00:16:09The Empress Dowager
00:16:10Distressed over your majesty's fence
00:16:12And suddenly collapsed
00:16:13What?
00:16:14Vector
00:16:14Stay here and protect your Evelyn
00:16:16Let's head back
00:16:17Yes your majesty
00:16:18Get someone to deliver some valuable gifts
00:16:21To Stirling Estate
00:16:22Say that they're Evelyn's homecoming gift
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
00:16:33Why has sister returned alone?
00:16:39Today is your homecoming day
00:16:42Sister why have you returned alone?
00:16:44Are you ashamed of your beggar husband?
00:16:47So you didn't even bring him to meet the family
00:16:49My husband wanted to come
00:16:51But something urgent came up
00:16:53Since being married to the beggar
00:16:54Lady Evelyn Sterling
00:16:56Must have suffered a great deal
00:16:58You look much frailer than before
00:17:01Had you not married that filthy beggar
00:17:03Perhaps I would have taken you as a concubine
00:17:06At least you wouldn't have fallen to such a state
00:17:08That will not be necessary
00:17:10I am living well
00:17:11As of for you sister
00:17:12It has been quite a few days
00:17:14Since you had seen your husband before
00:17:16You
00:17:18Screw you Adrian
00:17:19Went drinking with corsets on our wedding night
00:17:22And now everyone knows
00:17:23We are utterly humiliating me
00:17:25Josephine
00:17:30Father mother
00:17:32Greetings to you both
00:17:34Greetings to you both
00:17:36You've returned alone
00:17:37How can you still have the face to come back?
00:17:39What does your husband do all day?
00:17:41Not even accompanying you for your homecoming
00:17:44Mother you're thinking too highly of her
00:17:47That filthy beggar is probably begging in the streets right now
00:17:51How could he possibly compare to my husband?
00:17:55Father-in-law your humble son-in-law has brought a small gift
00:18:03Our dear Josephine has truly found herself a fine husband
00:18:06For our daughter to marry such a fine gentleman
00:18:09It must be the blessing she has earned over eight lives
00:18:12Unlike someone who chose a beggar as her husband
00:18:16Our sterling family has raised you for so many years
00:18:19And yet you come back empty-handed on your homecoming day
00:18:23Indeed sister
00:18:25This is my homecoming gift
00:18:27Have you fallen into such poverty that you cannot even afford a proper homecoming gift?
00:18:31I have a gift
00:18:38Father
00:18:39Mother
00:18:40These are the two protective talamans I made for you by hand
00:18:43A blessing to you both
00:18:44Wishing you peace and prosperity
00:18:49Get out
00:18:51What a disgrace
00:18:53Sister
00:18:54Is this truly what you've brought?
00:18:56A few scraps of cloth with embroidery
00:18:59How dare you present these?
00:19:00Well she did marry a beggar
00:19:03So her gift befits her status perfectly
00:19:07Oh right
00:19:08She has married a beggar
00:19:10What else could we expect from her?
00:19:17Master, Madame, someone from the palace has arrived with gifts
00:19:21They say they are the homecoming gifts from Lady Evelyn
00:19:23Who exactly has your eldest daughter married a mountain nobility?
00:19:29Even the palace saw fit to have me personally deliver these gifts to you
00:19:33You must hold great influence indeed
00:19:35Gifts from the palace?
00:19:36But it must be from his majesty himself
00:19:37It was personally arranged by the chief eunuch at his majesty's side
00:19:39He said for the starling family's
00:19:47Outest daughter
00:19:50Mr. Ashford you must be mistaken
00:19:53All of Highgate knows
00:19:56That Evelyn married a beggar
00:19:58How could she possibly have ties to anyone in the palace?
00:20:02Oh
00:20:03This must surely be a courtesy to young master Montague
00:20:10Indeed
00:20:11In this world
00:20:12Those seeking favor with the Montague family are countless
00:20:15Even those in the palace are paying their respects
00:20:17Father-in-law
00:20:19Please accept with joy
00:20:21Josephine has married a remarkable husband
00:20:25Just look at the grandeur of her homecoming
00:20:27Such lavish gifts
00:20:28Our sterling family is truly honored beyond measure
00:20:34The gifts have been delivered
00:20:35I shall take my leave
00:20:36Oh take care
00:20:38Take care
00:20:41Sister
00:20:42My husband has prepared two sets of homecoming gifts
00:20:45Seeing all these
00:20:46Do you not feel ashamed?
00:20:48It's not about the quality of gifts
00:20:50But the sincerity behind them
00:20:51I see nothing inappropriate in this
00:20:53I've poured my heart and effort into raising you
00:20:56And yet not only did you marry a beggar
00:20:58But you even bring back these worthless rags to disgrace me
00:21:00The sterling family has no place for such a disgraceful daughter
00:21:05Simply because I married Lucas
00:21:07You feel justified to humiliate me like this
00:21:09Josephine acts in the best interest of the sterling family
00:21:12Unlike you who married a beggar
00:21:14Bringing disgrace upon us all
00:21:17Disgrace
00:21:19It's only because Josephine married into wealth
00:21:22That you so readily indulge her
00:21:24Insolent child
00:21:25Such outrageous defiance
00:21:26Who has put these ideas in your head?
00:21:28Is it not the truth?
00:21:29In your eyes
00:21:33A daughter is nothing more than a pawn to secure power and favor
00:21:36Outrageous!
00:21:38How dare you speak to your father in such a manner?
00:21:41A dragon jade pendant?
00:21:49Outrageous!
00:21:51And now, I must inform his majesty
00:21:55Give it back to me
00:21:56This jade pendant looks of fine quality from where did you steal it sister?
00:22:04It is from Lucas
00:22:07That wretched beggar he will never possess such a fine pendant
00:22:12He must have stolen it from somewhere would right have you to make such rash accusations
00:22:17Lucas may not be of noble birth like you
00:22:19But you believe that possessing a jade pendant is a rightful do it Lucas is not worthy of the same a worthless beggars gift
00:22:25And you treat it like a treasure how ignorant
00:22:27You won the pendant very well, but you must sever all ties with the sterling
00:22:38Father
00:22:39Will you truly indulge Josephine's audacity am I not also your daughter?
00:22:45You insisted on marrying a beggar
00:22:48Bringing shame upon the sterling family you are unworthy to be my daughter on this day forth
00:22:53I have only one daughter Josephine
00:23:02For the rest of my life. I seek only to be with the one who is true of heart
00:23:07Even if I must live on plain faith it is better than enduring cold to stay in the sterling since that is the case
00:23:23Hi, Evelyn sterling severe all ties with the sterling family
00:23:29We're here and forth strangers
00:23:40Hmm all for the sake of a worthless beggar you would sever ties with us
00:23:44It is fortunate. We never placed our hopes in you
00:23:47Is that not what father has always thought of why should I remain here only to be an eyesore to him?
00:23:58Hold it now that you wish to leave I fear it is too late
00:24:03Guards bring the burning charcoal from the kitchen scattered across the board
00:24:08What are you trying to do?
00:24:10What are you trying to do?
00:24:12Your majesty something terrible has happened lady Evelyn was humiliated at the sterling estate
00:24:22Once body and soul are bestowed by one's parents if you wish to sever ties
00:24:27You must first repay your parents kindness
00:24:30My lady speaks most reasonably
00:24:32Given your current state it would be far too much to expect that you present anything of great value
00:24:37Then you have no choice but to walk barefoot across this bed of burning charcoal
00:24:43It is pleasing so fiercely how could anyone survive walking across them? I will not walk
00:24:50Oh it seems dear sister that you no longer want this jade pendant
00:24:56Stop
00:25:00Lucas is the only one who has ever treated me well
00:25:03This jade pendant was left to him by his parents
00:25:06Farewell
00:25:07I will never allow his heartfelt gift to be trampled a couple
00:25:10I will walk
00:25:26For the sake of a filthy beggar you would go to such lengths you must have lost your mind
00:25:38For a mere jade pendant a lady born into privilege would willingly walk across burning charcoal
00:25:43No wonder she was foolish enough to marry a mere beggar
00:25:46After all what does a beggar have to his name but worthless trinkets
00:25:50This jade pendant is likely his most treasured possession
00:25:54No wonder dear sister cherishes it so
00:25:58The jade pendant was left to me by my father
00:26:01I've carried it with me all these years
00:26:04Now I'm giving it to you
00:26:06For me my lady
00:26:17Lucas do not worry
00:26:20I will reclaim the jade pendant
00:26:21Can you return the jade pendant to me now?
00:26:38You want it?
00:26:41Then crawl over and take it
00:26:43As long as you crawl over this jade pendant will be yours
00:26:46The jade pendant was left to me by my father
00:27:04I've carried it with me all these years
00:27:08Now I'm giving it to you
00:27:12All right
00:27:13I will cherish it well
00:27:27You claim to cherish your love for that filthy beggar
00:27:44But if you were disfigured would your dearest husband still want you?
00:27:50Why are you looking at me like that?
00:27:52I have long told you the fate of a woman who wets a beggar can only be one to be trampled upon our will
00:28:00You exhaust yourself trying to torment me
00:28:03But do you truly believe you'll get your way?
00:28:07I want you to spend the rest of your days wallowing in the gutter watching as I rise to become the most esteemed woman in the world
00:28:22Who dares to lay a hand on my woman?
00:28:37Evelyn, I'm sorry, I'm late
00:28:42Just leave
00:28:43Lucas
00:28:45I didn't lose your jade pendant
00:28:52Did they say it was his majesty? How could it be him?
00:28:55That beggar is dressed in such luxurious robes
00:28:58And those men, are they the imperial guards?
00:29:01Why would they take orders from a beggar?
00:29:02I heard that filthy beggar's brother once served in the palace
00:29:05Is it natural for him to procure some robes?
00:29:07That wretch beggar has suffered humiliation last time and now he has come to regain his dignity?
00:29:13What a joke! A mere beggar daring to put on an act in the sterling estate?
00:29:17Look at the fine husband you've chosen
00:29:19Useless is one thing, but to be so audacious?
00:29:22As to steal from the imperial palace?
00:29:24If his majesty were to find out, do you really believe you will be spared?
00:29:27Deviant fools, you're doomed
00:29:32You, what do you think you're doing?
00:29:33Evelyn, come with me
00:29:36Evelyn, what's wrong?
00:29:37Who did this?
00:29:48Lucas
00:29:57Yes, it was me, so what?
00:29:58I was only trying to help my dear sister
00:30:00Who would have thought she would walk barefoot across the burning charcoal?
00:30:04I wonder what she was thinking, such a fool
00:30:06Silence!
00:30:07And who do you think you are to dare raise your voice before me?
00:30:11Yes, I'm insulting her because she married a worthless man
00:30:15I am a noble lady with the Montag family
00:30:17You are nothing but insects beneath my feet
00:30:20Even if I were to kill you here and now, you ought to kneel and sack me for it
00:30:23Let's see how much longer you can keep up this charade
00:30:26Guards, seize this filthy beggar, Neville and Sterling
00:30:28Wait
00:30:29How dare you humiliate my lady?
00:30:37Seize them!
00:30:38Seize them!
00:30:39How dare you, I'm Lady Joseph of the Montag!
00:30:47The husband, save me!
00:30:48You filthy beggar, guards!
00:30:49Whoever kills him for me, I shall reward him with ten tails of gold
00:30:56Insolent, wretch!
00:30:57Lord Montague is of royal lineage!
00:30:59Who dare lay a hand on him, you shall make an enemy of the entire Montague family!
00:31:03And what of it?
00:31:04Anyone who dares to harm my lady shall only have one face, death!
00:31:12You filthy beggar, you're taking this act too far!
00:31:14Before I lose my temper, release me at once!
00:31:16I might disappear your life!
00:31:18You've tortured Evelyn to such wretched state!
00:31:21Press their faces!
00:31:23Straight into the burning charcoal!
00:31:27No!
00:31:28Oh, no!
00:31:30No!
00:31:30What are you doing?
00:31:31No!
00:31:32Stop!
00:31:32Once the judicial court arrives, you are doomed!
00:31:37All right!
00:31:37My brother is an official of the imperial court!
00:31:39Do you really think you'll walk away alive?
00:31:41I'd like to see if the judicial court would tolerate this!
00:31:47Carry on!
00:31:49Help!
00:31:49No!
00:31:50Help!
00:31:50No!
00:31:51Excuse me!
00:31:52You wretched fool!
00:31:53If you wish to die, don't drag the Stony family down with you!
00:31:57No!
00:31:58Stop!
00:31:59Brother!
00:32:00Brother, save me!
00:32:02Who is harming my brother?
00:32:17The imperial secret guards, why are they here?
00:32:20Yes!
00:32:21I summoned them!
00:32:23That voice, could it be your majesty?
00:32:29Your majesty?
00:32:30The emperor?
00:32:34How could this filthy beggar?
00:32:36Brother, don't let this filthy beggar fool you!
00:32:39These clothes he's wearing are all stolen from the imperial palace!
00:32:41All these people were bribed by him with a huge sum of money!
00:32:44That's right!
00:32:45You're new to this office!
00:32:46It's normal to get the wrong person, but he really is a filthy beggar!
00:32:49He can't possibly be the emperor!
00:32:51That's true!
00:32:51The emperor couldn't possibly be here!
00:32:54Wretched girl!
00:32:55Look at the fine husband you've chosen!
00:32:57You've offended Lord Montague!
00:32:59I'll see how you plan to end this!
00:33:02My lord, you must uphold justice for us!
00:33:05This filthy beggar and Evelyn Sterling, they defied human ethics, even intended to murder us!
00:33:11Outrageous!
00:33:12At the foot of the imperial city!
00:33:14How can you act so brazenly?
00:33:15Guards!
00:33:16Take them to the dungeon of the judicial court!
00:33:18Interrogate them with torture!
00:33:19Wait!
00:33:19What else do you have to say?
00:33:23Since when was this position of Lord Justice Deputy?
00:33:26Yours to assume!
00:33:27You filthy beggar!
00:33:28How could you possibly know about court appointments?
00:33:31My brother was appointed by the Empress Dowager herself!
00:33:33What now?
00:33:34Regret finally sinking in?
00:33:36Even the Empress Dowager was deceived!
00:33:39Your Montague family truly is impressive!
00:33:45Empress Dowager, please speak up for his subject!
00:33:48His Majesty, outside the palace, married the eldest daughter of the Sterling family!
00:33:51What?
00:33:51Because that woman, His Majesty, even lashed out!
00:33:53I said His Majesty married another woman outside the palace?
00:33:56Guards!
00:33:57Your brothers are done!
00:34:01Insolent!
00:34:02How dare you offend the Emperor Dowager?
00:34:04Are you trying to get yourself killed?
00:34:05Lord Montague!
00:34:06Please see clearly!
00:34:07Our Sterling family has long severed ties with Evelyn Sterling!
00:34:11Every word she says has nothing to do with us!
00:34:13That's right, my lord!
00:34:14Our Sterling family has always followed the rules!
00:34:17We would never dare speak against the royal family!
00:34:19Please, see the truth, my lord!
00:34:21The President and the Royalty is the capital of crime!
00:34:23You must not let them go, my lord!
00:34:24Evelyn Sterling, your dear husband has now committed a heinous crime!
00:34:28No matter who comes today, they cannot save you!
00:34:32I can't!
00:34:32I can't!
00:34:33When Lucas break up your arms, spare us, my lord!
00:34:35He didn't mean to offend you!
00:34:39Evelyn!
00:34:44Evelyn!
00:34:45Let's go!
00:34:46How dare you!
00:34:47Trying to run?
00:34:48Guards!
00:34:48Stop them!
00:34:49Whoever dares to block us again!
00:34:50Kill without mercy!
00:34:51Yes, sir!
00:34:57Trying to escape?
00:34:58It's not that easy!
00:34:59Lucas!
00:35:04Lucas!
00:35:09Lucas!
00:35:10Lucas!
00:35:10Lucas!
00:35:11Josephine Sterling, why is your heart so vicious?
00:35:14Lucas has no grievance with you, yet you harms him so cruelly!
00:35:17This filthy beggar actually tried to have some disfigure me?
00:35:20Of course I couldn't let you leave!
00:35:23Lucas!
00:35:23Lucas!
00:35:27Stop looking!
00:35:28Your man won't be here to save you this time!
00:35:30You've got a death wish!
00:35:31Lucas!
00:35:34Well, you still can't hurry and go!
00:35:35I can't!
00:35:36Go?
00:35:37You still think he can go?
00:35:40Josephine Sterling, why won't you just let me go?
00:35:46I have to admit, sister, you're truly fortunate!
00:35:50Even marrying a beggar, you still found true love!
00:35:53What a pity!
00:35:54The more you're like this, the more impossible it is for me to let you have your way!
00:35:57You-
00:35:59Josephine!
00:36:00The grudge between us should not involve others!
00:36:03You can do whatever you want to me!
00:36:05I beg you, let Lucas go, please!
00:36:08Avalyn, you don't need to waste your breath on her!
00:36:10I can't drag you into this!
00:36:12How touching!
00:36:14Even at a time like this!
00:36:16You still have time to flirt with this filthy beggar?
00:36:19Since you're feeling wrong so deep,
00:36:21I might as well send you both to death together!
00:36:25What are you waiting for?
00:36:28Die!
00:36:28Avalyn, watch out!
00:36:32The Emperor Stowager has arrived!
00:36:34I'd like to see who dares harm my royal son!
00:36:37He really is the Emperor?
00:36:44He-
00:36:45He really is the Emperor?
00:36:47Avalyn!
00:36:47Avalyn!
00:36:48Avalyn!
00:36:48Imperial physician!
00:36:49Call the Imperial physician quickly!
00:36:51Your Majesty!
00:36:52Victor Langley, I ordered her immediately to send her back for treatment!
00:36:55If anything happens to her, I'll make sure you pay!
00:36:57You're severed her base!
00:36:58Come, come, come!
00:37:00Hurry!
00:37:01Your Majesty, all members of the Starling family have been arrested!
00:37:06Your Majesty?
00:37:07Your Majesty?
00:37:08Your Majesty?
00:37:09Your Majesty?
00:37:11What do you call him?
00:37:12Your Majesty?
00:37:14Wasn't he a beggar?
00:37:15Pass down my decree!
00:37:16Sebastian Serding and his family are executed on the spot!
00:37:19Master!
00:37:23Madam!
00:37:23Madam!
00:37:25Admin Montague, as an official of the court, you abused your power and aided evil from this day forth!
00:37:30You are stripped of your duty, imprisoned along the Montague in the judicial court!
00:37:34Spare me, Your Majesty! Spare me!
00:37:36Please spare me, Your Majesty!
00:37:38I beg Your Majesty to revoke the order!
00:37:41It was my fault!
00:37:44I failed to see the truth!
00:37:46Your Majesty!
00:37:47When you humiliated Evelyn back then,
00:37:49Did you ever think this day would come?
00:37:53Impossible!
00:37:54Given a second chance to life, how can I still make the wrong choice?
00:37:58Empress Dowager, I did commit a grave offense,
00:38:00but it was all under the orders of the Starling family!
00:38:02Empress Dowager, please, for the sake of my father's honor, spare me once!
00:38:06I beg Your Majesty and Empress Dowager for mercy!
00:38:09Please have mercy, Empress Dowager!
00:38:11Have mercy, Empress Dowager!
00:38:13My son, although the two unfilial sons of the Montague family are foolish,
00:38:17They were not the masterminds!
00:38:19They should be punished later!
00:38:20The Sterling family is a household of commoners!
00:38:23To execute them all is indeed lacking consideration for the women!
00:38:27I saw that woman was badly injured, my son!
00:38:30You should go tend to her quickly!
00:38:49Lucas, are you alright?
00:38:51Are you alright? Did you get hurt?
00:38:52I'm fine, lie down quickly!
00:38:54The Imperius Physician said, you have to lie down!
00:38:56Come on!
00:38:58Imperio Physician?
00:39:01What is going on?
00:39:03Why are we in the palace? What exactly happened?
00:39:08It was the Empress Dowager who saved us!
00:39:09The Empress Dowager?
00:39:13You want to make Evelyn Sterling your Empress?
00:39:16I absolutely do not approve!
00:39:17I pledge myself to Evelyn for life in private!
00:39:21Whether you approve or not, I will overcome all obstacles to make Evelyn my Empress!
00:39:26You!
00:39:29If you truly wish to make her Empress, she must pass my test!
00:39:34But...
00:39:36But, before that, you must not let her know your identity!
00:39:42Otherwise, I have plenty of ways to stop you!
00:39:48She left the palace to pray!
00:39:50Just happened to walk by the Sterling State!
00:39:52That's how she saved us!
00:39:55Then...
00:39:58What about my father and the others?
00:39:59The Empress Dowager gave the order to have them all beaten 50 strikes each!
00:40:03Adrian Montague frequented pleasure districts!
00:40:05His body couldn't take it and he fainted!
00:40:07The Empress Dowager ordered him to be put in confinement,
00:40:09and your sister was also sent to the Office of Discipline to do hard labor!
00:40:13And for your father and the others, they were exiled!
00:40:16Exiled?
00:40:19Evelyn!
00:40:21From now on, I will protect you!
00:40:25I asked the Empress Dowager for a position, and assigned you to the Imperial Household Bureau!
00:40:29From now on, the two of us will be working in the palace!
00:40:34That's wonderful!
00:40:36When the time comes, we may work in the palace for three to five years,
00:40:40then we can leave together and live a simple life!
00:40:43Okay!
00:40:50Evelyn, I hope you can forgive me!
00:40:53Evelyn, when I have some free time, I'll come to see you!
00:41:02All right!
00:41:05Greets!
00:41:14Guests should notify us before touring the Imperial Household Bureau!
00:41:17This one here is the steward of the Bureau, Ma'am Langston!
00:41:23If you need anything, just go to her!
00:41:27Greetings, Ma'am Langston!
00:41:30This one here is a newly arrived maid, Evelyn Sterling!
00:41:33In the days to come, please take good care of her, Ma'am Langston!
00:41:37Rest assured, I will take good care of Miss Evelyn!
00:41:40I definitely won't let her do heavy work!
00:41:47Lucas...
00:41:49I came here to work, right?
00:41:51Why does it feel like I'm being treated like a mistress?
00:41:58She...
00:42:01Maybe she's a nice person...
00:42:06Miss Evelyn...
00:42:10Please come with me!
00:42:12Go ahead!
00:42:27You! Clean all of these thoroughly!
00:42:30You and I both work at the Imperial Household Bureau.
00:42:32The tasks are assigned in advance.
00:42:34Why should I be the one to do your work?
00:42:36You've got the nerves to ask?
00:42:37It's because of you that I ended up cleaning the toilet bowl!
00:42:40Some people must have used certain means to learn a post here,
00:42:43and somehow even earned Ma'am Langston's favor.
00:42:45She got all the Yeez's work assigned to you.
00:42:53Hey!
00:43:03Give it back to me!
00:43:06What are you waiting for?
00:43:07The dragon jade pendant?
00:43:09There's something only his majesty can wear!
00:43:10Hurry in and inform Madam Langston!
00:43:12Someone is stealing!
00:43:13Oh, majesty!
00:43:15Give it back to me!
00:43:16Right now!
00:43:16No!
00:43:30What are you waiting for?
00:43:31Grab her!
00:43:33Everyone, stop right there!
00:43:35Your Grace!
00:43:42The Imperial Household Bureau is such a crude place!
00:43:45You have never come here before!
00:43:47It might harm your noble health!
00:43:49Allow me to announce your arrival!
00:43:51No need!
00:43:52This time, I am disguised as a Bureau Matron,
00:43:54because I want to truly know Evelyn Sterling.
00:43:58She must never learn of my identity!
00:44:00I will be!
00:44:08Palace rules are strict!
00:44:09I was only gone for a little while!
00:44:12And you dare behave so wildly!
00:44:14What do you take the Imperial Household Bureau for?
00:44:16Ma'am!
00:44:16She stole his majesty's jade pendant!
00:44:18The one thing most forbidden in the harm is thee!
00:44:23She feared being exposed and even tried to harm me!
00:44:26Ma'am!
00:44:27You must punish her properly!
00:44:29Ma'am Langston!
00:44:30Please let me explain!
00:44:31This isn't what happened!
00:44:33Enough!
00:44:34Hand over the jade pendant!
00:44:39The pendant belongs to me!
00:44:44I said, hand over the jade pendant!
00:44:48The dragon jade pendant!
00:45:02It truly belongs to his majesty!
00:45:04The dragon jade pendant!
00:45:06It truly belongs to his majesty!
00:45:08The Emperor even gave her something this important?
00:45:11She even dares to steal his majesty's pendant!
00:45:14In the future, who knows what outrageous things she might do!
00:45:17Palace rules are very clear!
00:45:19Anyone caught stealing goods worth more than one dollar will have their left foot cut off and be branded!
00:45:24Ma'am!
00:45:25Please listen to my explanation!
00:45:26This pendant was given to me by someone very dear to me!
00:45:30It was definitely not stolen!
00:45:31I truly don't know how it could belong to his majesty!
00:45:34We confirm the pendant belongs to my son!
00:45:36Wouldn't that expose us to your identity?
00:45:39No!
00:45:40We can't rely on the object to prove there was theft involved!
00:45:43I'll thoroughly investigate this matter until the truth is found!
00:45:47The pendant will remain with me!
00:45:48If you are truly innocent, I will make things right for you!
00:45:52Thank you, ma'am!
00:45:54This is the new steward, Madam Williams!
00:45:56From now on, she will work with me to manage the bureau!
00:45:59All of you behave yourselves!
00:46:01Anyone who tries to be sneaky or lazy will be punished according to palace rules!
00:46:05Yes, ma'am!
00:46:12Your bullying of your colleague has not been settled yet!
00:46:14You are to clean toilet bowl as punishment!
00:46:16You may eat only when you finish!
00:46:18Yes, ma'am!
00:46:40Oh, isn't this much better?
00:46:45Yes, ma'am!
00:46:51Your majesty!
00:46:52Miss Caldwell has come to the palace again today!
00:46:54Do you wish to see her?
00:46:55No!
00:46:55Tell her to go back where she came from!
00:46:58This...
00:46:58You!
00:47:00Go back!
00:47:01I'm going to see Avalyn!
00:47:02If you follow me, you'll expose my identity!
00:47:05Out of the way!
00:47:09Avalyn!
00:47:10Avalyn!
00:47:10Lucas!
00:47:16Why are you here?
00:47:19How can Madam Langston let you do this kind of work?
00:47:22I'll go speak with her!
00:47:24I'll go speak with her!
00:47:26Lucas!
00:47:28It's just cleaning a toilet bowl is not a big deal!
00:47:32Avalyn!
00:47:32I'm sorry you had to endure this!
00:47:46I promise I'll find a way to get you out of here as soon as possible!
00:47:50By the way, the jade pendant of yours...
00:47:53What's the story behind it?
00:47:54Why is it that they keep saying that the pendant belongs to his majesty?
00:47:58Uh...
00:48:00My father...
00:48:00My father once won first place in the Imperial exam!
00:48:03To encourage outstanding scholars, his majesty rewarded him with the jade pendant!
00:48:07This is how it came into our hands!
00:48:09Oh...
00:48:09I see...
00:48:10All they say is his majesty, his majesty...
00:48:12I thought maybe you were lying to me...
00:48:18Who's there?
00:48:22It's Madam Willems!
00:48:24Hurry up and go!
00:48:24Come let her see you!
00:48:25Tomorrow!
00:48:26I'll come to see you tomorrow again!
00:48:28I'll come to see you tomorrow!
00:48:35Madams!
00:48:36All the toilet bowls have been cleaned!
00:48:38Cleaned already?
00:48:40Then go sweep the entire back courtyard!
00:48:46Yes ma'am!
00:48:48Finally done with everything!
00:48:58Why are you throwing my things?
00:49:03Madam Williams gave orders herself!
00:49:05She said at first light tomorrow, you are to deliver her medicine!
00:49:08Ma'am said, the medicine must be boiled with morning drew!
00:49:11Tonight, you should wait outside!
00:49:13Morning too!
00:49:16Morning too!
00:49:16Everyone heard it!
00:49:19I'm not making it up!
00:49:20Why is Madam Williams always picking on me?
00:49:23Madam Williams already showed me mercy by!
00:49:25Not punishing for the theft last time!
00:49:26All she asked was for you to collect the morning dew!
00:49:28You should be grateful!
00:49:29The pendant wasn't stolen at all!
00:49:31Stop falsely accusing me!
00:49:32Not stolen?
00:49:33Are you saying his majesty gave it to you himself?
00:49:45The night air is damned with dew!
00:49:46I'm going inside to get my own blanket!
00:49:48Is that not allowed?
00:49:49Huh!
00:49:50What arrogance!
00:49:51This is the Imperial Palace!
00:49:52There's no such thing as yours or mine!
00:49:53Don't think that's just because Ma'am lost so you can do whatever you want!
00:49:58Who said you could come in?
00:50:00Move aside!
00:50:08Avalyn!
00:50:11Avalyn, are you alright?
00:50:14Who did this?
00:50:16Victor Langley, why is he here?
00:50:18Could it be that he is?
00:50:20You want to die!
00:50:23Your majesty!
00:50:29You're the Emperor!
00:50:32You're his majesty!
00:50:35Insolent servant!
00:50:40You must never let her discover your true identity!
00:50:47My deepest apologies, your majesty!
00:50:53I merely saw someone injured and acted out of concern!
00:50:59Fortunately, it wasn't his majesty!
00:51:01But, hasn't Master Langley been by his majesty's side?
00:51:05Master Langley, what is going on here?
00:51:09Oh, this young guy here, he makes a strike in resemblance to his majesty!
00:51:14I specifically brought him to the palace to interrogate him!
00:51:16I, you, the new one, I'm going to be so ignorant of the rules!
00:51:21Don't you notice you behave yourself here?
00:51:23I humbly apologize!
00:51:25I acknowledge my error!
00:51:27Madam Langston, I beg your pardon!
00:51:29It's entirely my fault for causing this young officer concern!
00:51:32If you understand your error, then leave at once!
00:51:34As for you...
00:51:48Fraternizing with the guards is a grave matter!
00:51:50Yet, Madam Williams merely punished her with kneeling!
00:51:52The last time she stole a jade pendant, that incident was also swept under the rug!
00:51:58Tell me, if his majesty knew she had stolen his jade pendant, how do you think he would handle her?
00:52:04I shall inform his majesty at once, it was you who stole his jade pendant!
00:52:18Let us see if he will still let you off so easily!
00:52:22Ah, my face!
00:52:24My face!
00:52:25Ah, my face!
00:52:29You foolish serpent!
00:52:30What have you put in this ball?
00:52:32I...
00:52:33I obtained the recipe from a tallist who claimed they could enhance one's beauty when consumed!
00:52:40I only wished to do what was best for Madam Williams, which is why I acted so foolishly!
00:52:44How dare you serve something of unknown origin to ma'am if this rash on her face does not fade!
00:52:51How will you atone for this?
00:52:52Madam!
00:52:53Guards!
00:52:54Drag her away and sell her to a slave trader!
00:52:57Oh, Madam Williams, have mercy!
00:52:59Madam, have mercy, please!
00:53:00Madam!
00:53:01Madam!
00:53:02Madam, have mercy!
00:53:04Madam!
00:53:06Madam!
00:53:09May I be permitted to try?
00:53:11You?
00:53:14You?
00:53:14I've studied medical texts, and I can prepare herbal remedy that might alleviate the rash on your face.
00:53:20If...
00:53:27If my methods prove effective, I beg you, Madam, to spare Isabella's life.
00:53:32I can't believe it.
00:53:42His Majesty has not paid me attention for a long time, yet I hear he has recently been visiting Imperial Household Bureau.
00:53:49Tell me who could be in the Imperial Household Bureau to capture his Majesty's interest so deeply?
00:53:55I don't know!
00:53:56I know nothing!
00:53:57Speak!
00:53:58I remember now!
00:54:03There is indeed someone who dares to do such a thing!
00:54:17It may not look appealing, but it is true that the rash has faded somewhat.
00:54:24It seems you do have some skill.
00:54:26Thank you for your praise, Madam.
00:54:29Madam, you need to only wait six more hours, and the rash will completely disappear.
00:54:46Eh?
00:54:52What are you trying to do now?
00:55:01If it weren't for you today, I might have already been taken away.
00:55:06As for what happened before, I owe you an apology.
00:55:08I will 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 entirely a bad person.
00:55:29It's just that your words can be utterly vicious.
00:55:42Let's go.
00:55:42Let's eat a chestnut cake.
00:56:01It was her!
00:56:03It was you who seduced his majesty.
00:56:17With us stuck the face of yours.
00:56:19No wonder you can't stay out of trouble.
00:56:21His majesty finding a bride outside the palace is wondering.
00:56:24But when did your lowly servant dare to entertain such wicked thoughts?
00:56:28When did Evelyn ever seduce his majesty?
00:56:30Isabella, have you forgotten how much we suffered because of her?
00:56:33Evelyn never once provoked me intentionally.
00:56:35It was you who kept picking fights deliberately.
00:56:39Isabella!
00:56:39Do you even know who I am?
00:56:43How dare you act so insolently in my presence?
00:56:46Susan.
00:56:50Wait!
00:56:51The person standing before you is Lady Caldwell, daughter of Chancellor Caldwell.
00:56:55She's 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, surely 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 Cat, will 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 him.
00:57:23Stop!
00:57:34Stop!
00:57:37The Imperial Household Bureau is part of the harem.
00:57:45Since when is it your place to interfere?
00:57:48A mere old servant dares to raise your voice in front of me?
00:57:52You!
00:57:52How dare you!
00:57:54His 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.
00:58:00Dealing the lowly maid is nothing to me.
00:58:02Preposterous!
00:58:03Do you even know who stands before you?
00:58:07Aren't you just a lowborn servant?
00:58:11If I don't teach you a lesson, you'll never learn your place.
00:58:14We're strainer as well.
00:58:15Eleanor, you wouldn't dare.
00:58:18I never expected you to be so venomous at heart.
00:58:26Her majesty truly misjudged you.
00:58:29You didn't call yourself her majesty?
00:58:30Who are you taking yourself for?
00:58:32The Empress Dowager?
00:58:32A disfigured old wretch like you dare to use the title of the Empress Dowager.
00:58:42It seems you've grown tired of living.
00:58:43It seems you still refuse to admit your wrongdoing.
00:58:46What wrong have I done?
00:58:48You born into lowly status can only be servants of the palace.
00:58:51To defy your superiors is to seek death.
00:58:54You, Lady Catwell, the inner court is under the jurisdiction of his majesty and the Empress Dowager.
00:58:58To deal with the palace servants privately is likely against the rules.
00:59:02I beg you to show mercy.
00:59:03As the head of the Imperial Household Bureau, you have allowed your mage to seduce his majesty.
00:59:07Such behavior is a dangerous example.
00:59:09This is unforgivable.
00:59:11Fetch my way!
00:59:17The Spring Blossom banquet will be held at the beginning of next month.
00:59:20This year, all the nobles and dignitaries will be in attendance.
00:59:23Everything must be prepared perfectly.
00:59:25Your Majesty, rest assured.
00:59:27I will spare no effort in ensuring its success.
00:59:31You insolent servant!
00:59:33How dare you disturb his majesty!
00:59:35His Majesty?
00:59:37This humble maid greets your majesty and beg your majesty to visit and save Evelyn Sterling!
00:59:41What did you say?
00:59:42Evelyn's in danger!
00:59:48His Majesty?
00:59:50This humble maid greets your majesty and beg your majesty to visit and save Evelyn Sterling!
00:59:54What did you say?
00:59:56Evelyn's in danger!
01:00:08What are you doing?
01:00:10It was me who offended Lady Cowell.
01:00:12I did not wish for you who suffered punishment on my account.
01:00:17Since you are 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?
01:00:38I greet the Empress Dowager!
01:00:41I greet the Empress Dowager!
01:00:44I greet the Empress Dowager!
01:00:45The Empress Dowager?
01:00:48How could she possibly be the Empress Dowager?
01:00:55How 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!
01:01:10This humble subject admits her fault!
01:01:12I 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 matters are of great importance.
01:01:26It concerns the dignity of the Empress Dowager.
01:01:28I implore your majesty to carefully consider the matter.
01:01:35How could you dare to offend the Empress Dowager?
01:01:42Admit your fault at once!
01:01:43The temple subject admits my fault!
01:01:46Your majesty!
01:01:47It was this wretched maid!
01:01:48She told me to seduce his majesty!
01:01:52This is why I lost my composure!
01:01:53Lady Caldwell!
01:01:54It was clear to you!
01:01:56But if 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!
01:02:18I 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!
01:02:27You've overstepped your place and still dare to dream of becoming empress!
01:02:31You are sentenced to one year in the Office of Discipline to reflect on your actions!
01:02:34The Office of Discipline?
01:02:35No!
01:02:35Your majesty!
01:02:36This almost object admits her fault!
01:02:38Your majesty, please spare me!
01:02:39I do not want to go to the Office of Discipline!
01:02:43I have questions for you!
01:02:53Where is her majesty taking them?
01:02:57The Office of Discipline!
01:03:03Evelyn!
01:03:05Lucas!
01:03:06Did the Empress daughter punish you?
01:03:07Of course not!
01:03:08Her majesty wishes to discuss the Spring Blossom Banquet with me!
01:03:12That's a relief!
01:03:13Evelyn!
01:03:17Evelyn has passed the test!
01:03:18Wonderful!
01:03:19I will reveal my identity to her and make her my Empress!
01:03:22There is no need to rush the coronation!
01:03:25The Ministry of Rights is preparing for 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, it 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!
01:03:58Don't worry!
01:03:58Trust your abilities!
01:04:00You shall triumph!
01:04:01I'll also assist you behind the scenes!
01:04:02All right!
01:04:14Get moving all of you!
01:04:16If anyone dares to slack off, my whip shows no mercy!
01:04:25Useless fool!
01:04:26Do you still think you're a pampered young lady?
01:04:29Huh?
01:04:30Once you're in the office of discipline, no one gets to laze around!
01:04:37Evelyn Sterling, this is all your fault!
01:04:43Don't touch me!
01:04:45I'm the daughter of Chancellor Gladwell!
01:04:47You better show some respect!
01:04:54The daughter of Chancellor Caldwell!
01:04:56In my past life, Adrian Montauk was promoted by the Empress Elwiger during the Spring Blossom Banquet!
01:05:01If I can escape this wretched place, and find a way to bring Adrian to the Spring Blossom Banquet,
01:05:07I can surely turn things around!
01:05:14What a wretched place!
01:05:16They expect me, a lady, to wash my clothes myself?
01:05:21Where did this lonely maid come from?
01:05:26Lady, I have an urgent request!
01:05:29When? Why 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!
01:05:40My elder sister, Evelyn Sterling, is the reason I was in prison here!
01:05:44If you help escape, I 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.
01:06:02And trusting you at the banquet's organization was indeed a wide choice.
01:06:05Many thanks for your majesty's praise.
01:06:08Your majesty! Terrible news!
01:06:10The Office of Discipline is on fire!
01:06:11What?
01:06:19Sir, what is the situation inside?
01:06:21The fire has engulfed the entire rear courtyard.
01:06:23Nearly half the people couldn't make it out!
01:06:25Anna Caldwell.
01:06:33Your majesty!
01:06:39Your majesty!
01:06:40This humble subject has come to realize my mistakes!
01:06:43I beg you to spare me from this punishment!
01:06:46The Office of Discipline is a place I cannot enjoy even for a single day longer!
01:06:49As long as you're alive, at least this allows me to account for your well-being to your father.
01:06:54Enough!
01:06:54With your temperament, staying in the Office of Discipline would serve no purpose.
01:06:58Next month, you shall be the one to marry into Lior Empire.
01:07:02What?
01:07:03A marriage ally?
01:07:05What?
01:07:06Are you unwilling?
01:07:07Or would you prefer to continue staying in the Office of Discipline?
01:07:12No!
01:07:14This humble subject humbly obeys your majesty's decree.
01:07:18I 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,
01:07:30I dare to ask that your majesty release Josephine Sterling from the Office of Discipline.
01:07:35I pay your respects to your majesty.
01:07:41I remember. Josephine is your sister.
01:07:45Tell me, how should I reward her?
01:07:52Empress Dowager, we were never close since childhood.
01:07:56Our bond is not strong. I don't get a say in this.
01:08:01Since you have agreed to the marriage alliance, then so be it.
01:08:04Let's go back.
01:08:07Thank you for your grace.
01:08:08Thank you for your grace.
01:08:18Evelyn Sterling.
01:08:20I thought you had sword height already.
01:08:24Turns out, you're still that low.
01:08:26You'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!
01:08:46Edmund!
01:08:47Let me out, please!
01:08:49This is driving me crazy!
01:08:51You 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!
01:09:03It's all Josephine's fault!
01:09:08Husband!
01:09:10Why are you back?
01:09:13The Empress Dowager pardoned me.
01:09:15I'm released from Office of Discipline.
01:09:17After everything you put us through, you still have the guts to come back?
01:09:22Edmund!
01:09:23It's all because Evelyn!
01:09:25Instead of blaming each other here, you should think how to get back at her!
01:09:29Huh?
01:09:30Get back at her?
01:09:32She's like royalty now!
01:09:34How to get back at her, huh?
01:09:36I saw her once at the Office of Discipline.
01:09:40She was wearing a lonely palace mace uniform.
01:09:43I don't think she's royal.
01:09:44A palace mace?
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!
01:10:17At the banquet, I'll impress everyone!
01:10:20As long as I win the Empress Dowager's favor, our family will rise again!
01:10:27It's gonna be all nobles and high officials. Check everything thoroughly.
01:10:49We cannot afford to any mistakes.
01:10:51Oh, 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.
01:11:21Glad this is a remote area with no patrols.
01:11:25Otherwise, I can't meet like this.
01:11:27Avalyn, once the banquet ends, wait for me here.
01:11:41I got something to tell you.
01:11:42All right, I'll wait for you here.
01:11:53Husband! Look over there!
01:11:59Avalyn! And a palace guard!
01:12:05All right, you're on duty today. Let's hurry back.
01:12:09Look!
01:12:11Remember, wait for me here.
01:12:13Okay, take these.
01:12:19Hey, 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 and the Empress Gouger.
01:12:45They 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.
01:13:03You were lucky to have gone away last time.
01:13:06No one can protect you this time.
01:13:09What do you mean?
01:13:10I want to destroy you from head to toe.
01:13:17Greetings, Empress Gouger.
01:13:28Greetings, Empress Gouger.
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.
01:13:50Oh?
01:13:53I 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 the 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 him.
01:14:28If this matter deserves punishment, please spare the guard's life.
01:14:34Since neither of you are innocent,
01:14:36Your Highness, please summon the guard and execute them.
01:14:40Yes, Your Highness, punish them both to uphold palace discipline.
01:14:43You two want me to execute the guard?
01:14:51You two want me to execute the guard?
01:14:56In the palace, it is indeed forbidden for palace maids and guards to mingle.
01:15:01But Evelyn, for organizing the banquet, put in great effort.
01:15:05She's redeemed herself.
01:15:06I have decided to spare her from punishment.
01:15:08Bye!
01:15:09Evelyn, lead me to the banquet site.
01:15:12Yes.
01:15:25Farewell, Your Highness.
01:15:28She escaped again.
01:15:30Why is she always so lucky?
01:15:32First the Emperor protected her, and now the Empress dowager.
01:15:35Even she was entrusted with the whole banquet?
01:15:38Since she's in charge of the banquet.
01:15:42We can just...
01:15:49Your Majesty, the banquet is that way. Where are you going?
01:15:51It's about to begin. You'll be late.
01:15:54I've thought it over. I should let her know the truth before the banquet.
01:15:58Go tell Evelyn to meet me where we were before.
01:16:00What?
01:16:04Eunuch Langley.
01:16:06Come here.
01:16:15What's going on?
01:16:16You've done a great job this time. They're talking about how good the banquet is.
01:16:20Even an Empress dowager looks pleased.
01:16:22That's great.
01:16:25Someone is waiting for you in that courtyard. Go.
01:16:27How is it?
01:16:30Assassins! Protect the Empress dowager!
01:16:33What's going on inside?
01:16:36An assassin disguised in sedan, sir. Lord Montague took the blow for Her Majesty and the assassin escaped.
01:16:41What?
01:16:44Take her away.
01:16:46What are you doing?
01:16:46What are you doing?
01:16:47There is an assassin. We are arresting Evelyn to the judicial court.
01:16:50What?
01:16:51Me?
01:16:59My lord, he's the suspect.
01:17:01Maid Evelyn Sterling, he's the Prime Minister.
01:17:04So, she's the one who harmed Dana.
01:17:07Chancellor Caldwell, she was in charge of the palace banquet.
01:17:11How dare you? How dare you plan assassination against the Empress dowager?
01:17:16Are you rebelling?
01:17:18I'm not. I personally verify the identity of everyone. I have no idea where the assassin came from.
01:17:24Of course you don't.
01:17:25Right before the banquet, you were secretly meeting with the guard.
01:17:28You were so affectionate that you just ignore everything around you.
01:17:32What? Is this true?
01:17:34Chancellor, I can testify. That very guard is still at the Ministry of Rights.
01:17:38Someone, bring that guard here.
01:17:40I will get to the bottom of this.
01:17:45Why hasn't Evelyn come yet?
01:18:01Lucas...
01:18:02Sir, here's the guard.
01:18:04Are you alright, Lucas?
01:18:05Evelyn Sterling, how do you plead?
01:18:10Please investigate thoroughly. Since you're an assassin, it's my fault indeed. I only beg you not to implicate anyone else.
01:18:16The palace is heavily guarded. An outsider could never get in.
01:18:20Evelyn must have secretly colluded with the assassin, if not for my husband's great reaction.
01:18:24You should have been executed by now.
01:18:27Chancellor, careful. I really don't know about the assassin. I beg you to grant me some time. I will cover the truth behind this matter.
01:18:34Enough.
01:18:35Enough.
01:18:36Made Evelyn Sterling colluded with the guard, disrupted palace order, and put the Empress Starwager in danger.
01:18:42Both of them are to be executed immediately.
01:18:52No.
01:18:53Chesler, we broke over water.
01:18:55Chesler, I'm begging you.
01:18:57Chesler.
01:18:58Chesler, don't.
01:18:59Chesler, please.
01:19:01Chesler.
01:19:02Chesler, I'm sorry. It's not my fault. I'm so sorry.
01:19:25Stop now. Don't you dare touch her.
01:19:30Your Majesty.
01:19:32Long live your majesty.
01:19:38Long live your majesty.
01:19:41How dare you condemning the innocent without discerning right from wrong.
01:19:47This is totally outrageous.
01:19:56You keep going against Evelyn every turn. Today, if I weren't here, you would have gotten your way.
01:20:02Your Majesty, I didn't meant to hurt my sister.
01:20:05Your Majesty, Evelyn was in charge of the banquet, but she allowed assassins in to hurt the Empress Starwager.
01:20:10I beg you. Your Majesty issued an order at once to imprison her for further interrogation.
01:20:14Chesler was right. If it weren't for my husband's presence today, the Empress Starwager might not have survived.
01:20:18Your Majesty, my life is of no consequence, but Evelyn must be punished.
01:20:26Your Majesty, my life is of no consequence, but Evelyn must be punished.
01:20:30If this happens again, who will protect the palace?
01:20:35The Empress Starwager has been traumatized today. If your Majesty is known to punish Evelyn, what if others follow her example?
01:20:48The consequences will be unimaginable. I request your Majesty to punish Evelyn.
01:20:53I beg your Majesty to punish Evelyn.
01:20:56Is that so? If I have evidence that Evelyn's innocent, what should you be punished for?
01:21:07If possible. Nicholas, I'm asking you!
01:21:19They're fine. What's wrong about her? I'm willing to receive the same punishment.
01:21:24Okay. Come on. Bring them to me.
01:21:31Your Majesty is wise. Following your orders, I've already arranged for guards to capture the assassin.
01:21:38Your Majesty, spare me! The assassination was all Josephine and Andrew's idea. I was surely forced into it.
01:21:44Your Majesty, spare me! Your Majesty, please!
01:21:46It's over! It's all over!
01:21:48Guards, take Nicholas away!
01:21:51Your Majesty, I've been serving the royals for decades!
01:21:56I'm absolutely loyal! Your Majesty, please! Don't do this to me! Your Majesty!
01:22:01Her Majesty!
01:22:06Her Majesty!
01:22:08Your Majesty! This has nothing to do with me! It was all her! She ordered me to do it!
01:22:13You're lying! Your Majesty, I was only jealous of my sister! The assassination was all Adrian's idea!
01:22:18And taking the flu was all part of this act! Your Majesty!
01:22:22Dammit! How dare you betray me!
01:22:25Enough! Adrian Montague, Josephine Sterling as masterminds will be executed right now!
01:22:35Lock Catherine in the judicial court. Wait for further orders!
01:22:38Your Majesty! Your Majesty! Your Majesty!
01:22:41Please give me a chance, Your Majesty! Your Majesty! Your Majesty!
01:22:44But instead, I hate you! If not for you, all of this would have been mine!
01:22:50It's all because of yourself, not me.
01:22:54You brought all of this upon yourself.
01:22:56You brought all of this upon yourself!
01:23:04Evelyn.
01:23:07Hi.
01:23:11So, Your Majesty, what is your real name?
01:23:17Lucian Prescott.
01:23:19Lucian Prescott.
01:23:22Now the criminals have been taken away,
01:23:24Your Majesty and Your Highness.
01:23:26You can finally be together.
01:23:31My Highness.
01:23:34From today onward, I will make you Empress.
01:23:42Starting today, the concubines will be dismissed.
01:23:45The harem only has one leader.
01:23:50And that will be my Empress.
01:23:52Greetings!
01:23:54Long live your Highness!
01:23:56Long live your Highness!
01:23:58You
