Transcript
00:00:00Lady Evelyn 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!
00:00:24Someone's been killed!
00:00:26Murder!
00:00:27Murder!
00:00:28Nederlander-
00:00:36Sister...
00:00:41Why-
00:00:43Background- Don't call me Sister, you are unworthy!
00:00:46We are both daughters of the Sterling Family why, should you live better than me!?
00:00:50If only Agent Montag caught my bridle bow 3 years ago…
00:00:54This thing being over is nothing but an illusion.
00:01:02If I were given another chance, I would rather forsake all of these honors.
00:01:24Master, I have already spread the word.
00:01:32The 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.
00:01:44You two better aim at the right man. Whichever of you marries well shall bring glory to our family.
00:01:49Why have I been reborn two three years ago? The 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.
00:02:05In my past life, Josephine insists that I go first.
00:02:09Feigning modesty and humility. Yet now, it seems, Josephine has also been reborn.
00:02:19Lady Josephine, this way! Give it to me! Lady Josephine, come on!
00:02:26In this life, I have to marry Adrian!
00:02:38It's him, Adrian, second son of the Montagues.
00:02:40The Montague family are relatives of the royal family, which means we shall become royal kin as well!
00:02:47I actually altered my fate!
00:02:50Three years later, Adrian shall rise in rank, and I shall become a noble lady of honor!
00:02:56Josephine, you have screamed relentlessly.
00:03:00But little do you know, that you're gonna suffer a lot in the evil Montague family.
00:03:05Great, great, great! The whole family is counting on you!
00:03:10Oh, stop flattering me! I'm doing this just for our family.
00:03:13Once I become Lady Montague, I shall be mindful of my words and actions bringing prosperity to our family.
00:03:20Sister, what do you say?
00:03:23You are truly fortunate. As your sister, I am happy for you.
00:03:29Evelyn, Lady Luck is with me this time. In this life, I will never let you overshadow me again!
00:03:36That is...
00:03:42Your Majesty! Your Majesty!
00:03:46Master, if the Empress tower did you find, you're dressed like this.
00:03:51Mother's been always pressing me. I can only leave the palace for some peace.
00:03:55This is a perfect chance to experience the life of ordinary folk.
00:03:59Let's have a look.
00:04:02In my past life, that beggar caught my bridal bull. I had to run away and then 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.
00:04:20Evelyn, now it's your turn. And you better aim as close as Josephine.
00:04:25Mother, how could you say such a thing?
00:04:27Sister 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.
00:04:40Powerful or not, rich or not, it's only written on water.
00:04:45In this life, I seek only a true companion to live a peaceful life till the end.
00:04:50It's him. It's him. The beggar that Josephine ran away from.
00:05:08Josephine ran away from.
00:05:11Oh, oh no. It actually went to a beggar.
00:05:15Sister, what terrible luck you have. A beggar out of so many people down there. How do you expect father to hold his head high?
00:05:22Damn it! With so many people down there, how could you cast it to a beggar? Are you deliberately trying to shame me?
00:05:31What's done is done, sister. Do not be too upset.
00:05:34Though he is of lowly birth, but look, at least he got a pretty face.
00:05:38It is only a pity for you, sister, raising comfort and luxury. But now bound to a beggar, you shall have to labor yourself to earn your bread.
00:05:48Now this will be quite the spectacle. The esteemed Lady Evelyn will marry a beggar? Everyone is watching. If she refuses, it's going to ruin their credit. Who would associate with them more?
00:05:57Hey! Hey! Seize her! Don't let her escape!
00:06:04Master, how did this bridal bull end up in your hands? What should we do now? It's the Scottish.
00:06:10I'm dressed in such rags. She won't agree.
00:06:14Sister, why are you running? You cast the bridal bull yourself.
00:06:21You damn girl! Look at the filthy beggar you've got!
00:06:25If he becomes my son-in-law, it's gonna be a huge disgrace to us!
00:06:32In my past life, I was mistreated by the Montagues and used for Sterling's ambitions.
00:06:38Thinking back now, perhaps marrying a beggar would be better fate.
00:06:42The rule of the bridal ball is binding. Since he caught the ball, you should...
00:06:48I am willing to marry him.
00:06:49What?!
00:06:50My name is Evelyn Sterling. What's yours?
00:07:02I am Lu... Lucas Prescott.
00:07:06With all present as my witnesses today. I, Evelyn Sterling. Willing take Lucas Prescott as my husband.
00:07:19Are you serious?
00:07:25Yeah. The ball is in your hands. You wanna... reject me.
00:07:33I didn't. It's just that I'm poor as hell. Marrying me would mean a life of uncertainty. Are you sure?
00:07:40We're not disabled or something. We may be poor now, but we can always earn our money. We can work hard to make a living ourselves.
00:07:53I've never seen someone so easily content.
00:07:56He's just a filthy beggar! You're really gonna marry him?!
00:07:59Evelyn, you're sure about this? Marry this beggar. And your future is ruined!
00:08:08I do not believe that is true. Future won't be decided like that.
00:08:12Lucas, he may be in rags now, but I can see his humility and good manner. He's gonna make a difference, maybe.
00:08:20You are... Rule is rule. You're not eating your words, are you, sir?
00:08:25Indeed. If he refuses, that's breaking the rules, and gonna ruin their reputation. Seems well, she has to marry him.
00:08:32Indeed, marry him! Indeed, marry him!
00:08:35Since you wanna marry him, don't blame us in the future. You won't get a share of the coming glory of us.
00:08:43I understand.
00:08:45The matchmaking is concluded. Everyone disperse.
00:08:51Sister, no hard feelings.
00:08:55But marrying a beggar...
00:08:58...means you will spend your life beneath me.
00:09:01You should worry about yourself.
00:09:03Life with the Montague's...
00:09:05...is not as easy as you imagine.
00:09:08Hmph!
00:09:15You...
00:09:16In three days, remember to come to propose.
00:09:23It's her or Mother's pressing.
00:09:25So I might as well...
00:09:27Alright! I'll be there.
00:09:28I'll be there.
00:09:34Today, the second daughter of the Sarlene family is to be wed.
00:09:37Her dowry includes a pair of gold Phoenix hairpins laid with precious gems,
00:09:42plenty of boats 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 are both daughters of the Sarlene family.
00:09:54But the difference between them is astonishing.
00:09:56Sister, after marrying a beggar, you will likely toil for the rest of your life.
00:10:00I wonder if you can even endure such life.
00:10:01It's the bridegroom. The bridegroom has arrived.
00:10:13Oh, as expected of the second son of the Montague family, the spectacle is grand indeed.
00:10:20Of course, the Montagues hold immense power.
00:10:23Marrying into their family, Lady Josephine Sterling will live a life of endless luxury.
00:10:27Unlike Evelyn, marrying a beggar, this will certainly be an interesting sight to behold.
00:10:31My respects to my honor, father and mother-in-law.
00:10:34Please rise, my son-in-law.
00:10:36Such an elaborate wedding procession is a spectacle worthy of Highgate.
00:10:41For our dear Josephine to be regarded so highly by you is an honor to the Sterling family.
00:10:50Sister, the auspicious hour is nearly over. Why has your husband not come for you?
00:10:55Could it be that he's not coming at all?
00:11:01I, your humble son-in-law, greet my honored father-in-law.
00:11:11My lady.
00:11:17My lady.
00:11:18Are you here to beg for the alms or take a bride? Dressed in such rags, do you not feel ashamed? Compared to Lord Montague, you are as far apart as heaven and earth.
00:11:27Just what are you wearing? In front of so many esteemed officials, are you not bringing shame upon me?
00:11:34Today is your wedding day. And yet you came dressed like this? Do you not find this is a disgrace? Do you not finding this humiliating?
00:11:42Marriage is a lifelong commitment, building upon sincerity, not mere appearances. The men I, Evelyn Sterling, have chosen. It's not one whose worth can be swayed by idle words.
00:11:50Have you not embarrassed us enough?
00:11:54Master, do not be angered. From the moment Evelyn steps beyond this threshold, she'll no longer be a Sterling.
00:12:02The auspicious hour has arrived! Bring the bride to the carriage!
00:12:05This is the...
00:12:14Congratulations, Master Sterling. Your son-in-law is truly an exceptional man.
00:12:21Many thanks, Deputy Minister. Please come inside.
00:12:26Off to you.
00:12:28Surely you didn't arrive on foot today.
00:12:31On such a big day, will you have the bride walk all the way to your home?
00:12:38Unheard of.
00:12:40Indeed. Not like my husband.
00:12:46My lady, please, allow me to take you home.
00:13:01To the heavens and the earth.
00:13:10Is this the place you have found us to live in?
00:13:14Bow to the elders.
00:13:19A shabby place like this, is 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.
00:13:27The ceremony is complete!
00:13:37My lady, I have put you through hardship, having a life with me in such a shabby place.
00:13:43Not at all. I actually think it's rather spacious.
00:13:47At least it shields us from the wind and rain.
00:13:49If we work hard from now on, keep this place tidy, he'll soon feel much more comfortable.
00:13:57At this moment, I have nothing of value to give you.
00:14:00This shade pendant was left to me by my father.
00:14:04I've carried it with me all these years.
00:14:06And now, I'm giving it to you.
00:14:14It's so precious.
00:14:16Are you certain of it?
00:14:20Alright.
00:14:21I will cherish it well.
00:14:39You're up. Breakfast is ready. For you.
00:14:54Hi. Where are you going?
00:14:57Today is the wife's homecoming day.
00:14:59I made telemeds for my parents, but they're not quite finished.
00:15:01I need to buy some more threats and complete them before I return home.
00:15:05Alright. I'll go with you.
00:15:07Alright.
00:15:08Let's go.
00:15:13Greetings, your ma-
00:15:14Greetings, your majesty!
00:15:20Greetings, your majesty!
00:15:22Greetings, your ma-
00:15:26Who are they?
00:15:27The palace is too complicated. Once everything's settled, I'll reveal my identity to Evelyn.
00:15:31They are...
00:15:35They're here for Victor.
00:15:40Yes, yes. I used to serve in the palace. These are all old acquaintances.
00:15:48Evelyn, I'll help Victor to entertain the guests. Will you be alright buying threat on your own?
00:15:54Yes.
00:15:57Speak! What happened?
00:15:58The Empress Dowager distressed over your majesty's presence and suddenly collapsed.
00:16:00What? Victor, stay here and protect your Evelyn. Let's head back.
00:16:03Yes, your majesty.
00:16:05Get someone to deliver some valuable gifts to Stirling Estate. Say that they're Evelyn's homecoming gifts.
00:16:10Yes, your majesty.
00:16:11Let's go.
00:16:13Father.
00:16:14Father.
00:16:15Father.
00:16:16Mother.
00:16:17Your daughter has returned.
00:16:18Father.
00:16:19Why has sister returned alone?
00:16:20Father.
00:16:21Why has sister returned alone?
00:16:22Today is your homecoming day.
00:16:23Sister, why have you returned alone?
00:16:24Are you ashamed of your beggar husband?
00:16:25So you didn't even bring him to meet the family?
00:16:26My husband wanted to come, but something urgent came up.
00:16:28Since being married to the beggar, Lady Evelyn Stirling must have suffered a great deal.
00:16:29You look much better than you are.
00:16:30My husband wanted to come, but something urgent came up.
00:16:31Since being married to the beggar, Lady Evelyn Stirling must have suffered a great deal.
00:16:34You look much frailer than before.
00:16:59Had you not married that filthy beggar, perhaps 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, it has been quite a few days since you had seen your husband before.
00:17:18Screw you, Adrian.
00:17:19Went drinking with corsets on our wedding night, and now everyone knows we are utterly humiliating me.
00:17:25Josephine.
00:17:29Father, mother, greetings to you both.
00:17:34Greetings to you both.
00:17:36You've returned alone. How can you still have the face to come back?
00:17:39What does your husband do all day, not 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.
00:17:59Our dear Josephine has truly found herself a fine husband.
00:18:07For our daughter to marry such a fine gentleman, it must be the blessing she has earned over eight lifetimes.
00:18:12Unlike someone who chose a beggar as her husband, our sterling family has raised you for so many years,
00:18:19and yet you come back empty-handed on your homecoming day.
00:18:22Indeed, sister. This is my homecoming gift.
00:18:27Have you fallen into such poverty that you cannot even afford a proper homecoming gift?
00:18:38Father, mother, these are the two protective telements I made for you by hand.
00:18:43Father, a blessing to you both. Wishing you peace and prosperity.
00:18:46Oh!
00:18:49Get out!
00:18:51What a disgrace!
00:18:53Sister, is this truly what you've brought?
00:18:56A few scraps of cloth with embroidery?
00:18:59How dare you present these?
00:19:01Well, she did marry a beggar.
00:19:03So her gift befits her status perfectly.
00:19:05All right.
00:19:08She has married a beggar.
00:19:10What else could we expect from her?
00:19:17Master, madam.
00:19:19Someone from the palace has arrived with gifts.
00:19:21They say they are the homecoming gifts from Lady Evelyn.
00:19:27Master Sterling, who exactly has your eldest daughter married a mountain nobility?
00:19:31Even the palace saw fit to have me personally deliver these gifts to you.
00:19:34You must hold great influence, indeed.
00:19:36Gifts from the palace?
00:19:37Then it must be from his majesty himself.
00:19:39It was personally arranged by the chief eunuch at his majesty's side.
00:19:42He said, for the Sterling family's...
00:19:46eldest daughter.
00:19:50Mr. Ashford, you must be mistaken.
00:19:54All of Highgate knows that Evelyn married a beggar.
00:19:58How could she possibly have ties to anyone in the palace?
00:20:01Oh, this must surely be a courtesy to young Master Montague.
00:20:10Indeed.
00:20:11In this world, those seeking favor with the Montague family are countless.
00:20:15Even those in the palace are paying their respects.
00:20:18Father-in-law, please accept with joy.
00:20:22Josephine has married a remarkable husband.
00:20:25Just look at the grandeur of her homecoming.
00:20:27Such lavish gifts.
00:20:29Our Sterling family is truly honored beyond measure.
00:20:33The gifts have been delivered.
00:20:35I shall take my leave.
00:20:37Oh, take care.
00:20:38Take care.
00:20:41Sister, my husband has prepared two sets of homecoming gifts.
00:20:45Seeing all these, do you not feel ashamed?
00:20:48It's not about the quality of gifts, but the sincerity behind them.
00:20:51I see nothing inappropriate in this.
00:20:54I've poured my heart and effort into raising you, and yet, not only did you marry a beggar,
00:20:58but you even bring back these worthless rags to disgrace me.
00:21:01The Sterling family has no place for such a disgraceful daughter.
00:21:05Simply because I married Lucas, you 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, bringing disgrace upon us all.
00:21:16Disgrace.
00:21:19It's only because Josephine married into wealth that 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?
00:21:31In your eyes, a daughter is nothing more than a pawn to suck your power in favor.
00:21:37Outrageous!
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!
00:21:57This jade pendant looks of fine quality.
00:22:01From where did you steal it, sister?
00:22:04That is from Lucas.
00:22:05Give it back!
00:22:06That wretched beggar?
00:22:09He will never possess such a fine pendant.
00:22:12He must have stolen it from somewhere.
00:22:15Would 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 due.
00:22:22Yet Lucas is not worthy of the same.
00:22:23A worthless beggar's gift, and you treat it like a treasure.
00:22:26How ignorant.
00:22:28You want the pendant?
00:22:29Very well.
00:22:30But you must sever all ties with the Sterlings.
00:22:33Yes.
00:22:34You.
00:22:38Father.
00:22:40Will you truly indulge Josephine's audacity?
00:22:43Am I not also your daughter?
00:22:45You insisted on marrying a beggar.
00:22:48Bringing shame upon the Sterling family,
00:22:50you are unworthy to be my daughter.
00:22:52On this day forth, I have only one daughter.
00:22:55Josephine!
00:22:55For the rest of my life,
00:23:04I seek only to be with the one who is true of heart.
00:23:07Even if I must live on plain fare,
00:23:09it is better than enduring cold disdain in the Sterlings.
00:23:13Since that is the case...
00:23:14Hi, Evelyn Sterling.
00:23:25Severe all ties with the Sterling family.
00:23:29We are here and forth, strangers.
00:23:31All for the sake of a worthless beggar.
00:23:43You would sever ties with us?
00:23:45It is fortunate we never placed our hopes in you.
00:23:51Is that not what Father has always thought of?
00:23:53Why should I remain here only to be an eyesore to him?
00:23:58Hold it.
00:23:59Now that you wish to leave,
00:24:01I fear it is too late.
00:24:03Guards!
00:24:04Bring the burning charcoal from the kitchen.
00:24:07Scatter them across the board.
00:24:09What are you trying to do?
00:24:12Your Majesty, something here for us happened.
00:24:14Lady Evelyn was humiliated at the Sterling estate.
00:24:22One's body and soul are bestowed by one's parents.
00:24:25If you wish to sever ties,
00:24:26you must first repay your parents' kindness.
00:24:30My Lady speaks most reasonably.
00:24:32Given your current state,
00:24:33it would be far too much to expect
00:24:35that you present anything of great value.
00:24:37Then you have no choice but to walk barefoot
00:24:39across this bed of burning charcoal.
00:24:43It is pleasing so fiercely.
00:24:45How could anyone survive walking across them?
00:24:47I will not walk.
00:24:48Oh, it seems, dear sister,
00:24:53that you no longer want this jade pendant.
00:24:57Stop!
00:25:00Lucas is the only one who has ever treated me well.
00:25:04This jade pendant was left to him by his parents.
00:25:06Farewell.
00:25:07I will never allow his heartfelt gift to be trampled.
00:25:09For the sake of a filthy beggar,
00:25:33you would go to such lengths?
00:25:35You must have lost your mind!
00:25:36For a mere jade pendant,
00:25:39a lady born into privilege
00:25:41would willingly walk across burning charcoal.
00:25:43No wonder she was foolish enough
00:25:45to marry a mere beggar.
00:25:46After all,
00:25:47what does a beggar have to his name
00:25:49but worthless trinkets?
00:25:50This jade pendant is likely
00:25:52his most treasured possession.
00:25:54No wonder, dear sister,
00:25:56cherishes 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.
00:26:04And now,
00:26:05I'm giving it to you.
00:26:14For me, my lady.
00:26:17Lucas,
00:26:18do not worry.
00:26:20I will reclaim the jade pendant.
00:26:21Can you
00:26:33return 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,
00:26:45this jade pendant will be yours.
00:26:47The jade pendant was left to me by my father.
00:27:05I've carried it with me all these years.
00:27:08And now,
00:27:08I'm giving it to you.
00:27:12All right.
00:27:14I will cherish it, Will.
00:27:15You claim
00:27:40to cherish your love
00:27:42for that filthy beggar.
00:27:43But if you were disfigured,
00:27:46would your dearest husband still want you?
00:27:49Yeah.
00:27:50Why are you looking at me like that?
00:27:53I have long told you
00:27:54the fate of a woman
00:27:55who wets a beggar
00:27:56can only be one
00:27:58to be trampled upon at will.
00:28:00You exhaust yourself
00:28:01trying to torment me.
00:28:03But do you truly believe
00:28:05you'll get your way?
00:28:07I want you
00:28:08to spend the rest of your days
00:28:10wallowing in the gutter,
00:28:11watching as I rise
00:28:13to become
00:28:13the most esteemed woman
00:28:14in the world.
00:28:24His majesty has arrived!
00:28:32Who dares to lay a hand
00:28:33on my woman?
00:28:34Evelyn, I'm sorry.
00:28:39I'm late.
00:28:42Just leave.
00:28:43Lucas,
00:28:45I didn't lose
00:28:46your Jake pendant.
00:28:52Did they say
00:28:53it was his majesty?
00:28:54How could it be him?
00:28:55That beggar
00:28:56is dressed in
00:28:57such luxurious robes.
00:28:58And those men,
00:28:59are they the Imperial Guards?
00:29:01Why would they take orders
00:29:02from a beggar?
00:29:02I heard that filthy beggar's
00:29:04brother once served
00:29:04in the palace.
00:29:05Is it natural for him
00:29:06to procure some robes?
00:29:07That wretched beggar
00:29:08has suffered humiliation
00:29:10last time,
00:29:10and now he has come
00:29:11to regain his dignity?
00:29:12Ha!
00:29:13What a joke!
00:29:14A mere beggar
00:29:15daring to put on an act
00:29:16in the Sterling Estate?
00:29:17Look at the fine husband
00:29:18you've chosen.
00:29:19Useless is one thing,
00:29:21but to be so audacious
00:29:22as to steal from
00:29:23the Imperial Palace?
00:29:24If his majesty
00:29:25were to fan out,
00:29:26do you really believe
00:29:27you will be spared?
00:29:27Deviant fools,
00:29:28you're doomed!
00:29:31You!
00:29:32What do you think
00:29:33you're doing?
00:29:34Evelyn,
00:29:34come with me.
00:29:36Evelyn,
00:29:37what's wrong?
00:29:47Who did this?
00:29:49Lucas!
00:29:49Yes, it was me!
00:29:58So what?
00:29:58I was only trying
00:29:59to help my dear sister.
00:30:00Who would have thought
00:30:01she would walk
00:30:02barefoot across
00:30:02a burning charcoal?
00:30:04I wonder what
00:30:05she was thinking.
00:30:06Such a fool!
00:30:06Silence!
00:30:07And who do you think
00:30:08you are to dare
00:30:09raise your voice
00:30:10before me?
00:30:11Yes, I'm insulting her
00:30:13because she married
00:30:14a worthless man.
00:30:15I am a noble lady
00:30:16with the Montag family.
00:30:17You are nothing
00:30:18but insects beneath
00:30:19my feet.
00:30:20Even if I were
00:30:21to kill you here
00:30:21and now,
00:30:22you ought to kneel
00:30:23and sack me for it.
00:30:24Let's see how much
00:30:24longer you can keep
00:30:25up this charade.
00:30:26Guard!
00:30:27Seize this filthy beggar
00:30:28and Evelyn Sterling!
00:30:29Wait.
00:30:33How dare you
00:30:34humiliate my lady?
00:30:37Seize them!
00:30:38Seize them!
00:30:39Oh!
00:30:42How dare you!
00:30:43I'm Lady Josephine Montag!
00:30:45The husband save me!
00:30:48You filthy beggar!
00:30:49Guards!
00:30:49Whoever kills him for me,
00:30:50I shall reward him
00:30:51with ten tails of gold.
00:30:56Insulin, wretch!
00:30:57Lord Montague is
00:30:58of royal lineage!
00:30:59If you dare lay a hand
00:31:00on him,
00:31:00you shall make an enemy
00:31:01of the entire Montague
00:31:02family!
00:31:03And what of it?
00:31:04Anyone who dares
00:31:05to harm my lady
00:31:06shall only have
00:31:07one face,
00:31:08death!
00:31:12You filthy beggar!
00:31:13you're taking this act
00:31:13too far!
00:31:14Before I lose my temper,
00:31:16release me at once!
00:31:17I might disappear
00:31:17your life!
00:31:18You've tortured Evelyn
00:31:19to such wretched state!
00:31:21Press their faces!
00:31:23Straight into the
00:31:24burning charcoal!
00:31:27No!
00:31:29Oh!
00:31:29No!
00:31:30No!
00:31:30What are you doing?
00:31:31No!
00:31:32Stop!
00:31:32Once the traditional
00:31:33court arrives,
00:31:34you are doomed!
00:31:37Alright.
00:31:37My brother is an
00:31:38official of the
00:31:39Imperial Court.
00:31:39Do you really think
00:31:40you'll walk away alive?
00:31:41I'd like to see
00:31:42if the judicial
00:31:44court would
00:31:45tolerate 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,
00:31:54don't drag your
00:31:55Stoney family down
00:31:56with you!
00:31:57No!
00:31:58Stop!
00:31:59Brother!
00:32:00Brother, save me!
00:32:01Who is harming my
00:32:13brother?
00:32:17The Imperial Secret
00:32:18Guards, why are they
00:32:19here?
00:32:20Yes, I summoned them.
00:32:23That voice, could it be
00:32:25your majesty?
00:32:27Your majesty?
00:32:33The emperor?
00:32:34How could this
00:32:35filthy beggar...
00:32:36Brother, don't let
00:32:37this filthy beggar fool
00:32:38you.
00:32:39These clothes he's
00:32:39wearing are all stolen
00:32:40from the Imperial Palace.
00:32:41All these people were
00:32:42bribed by him with a
00:32:43huge sum of money.
00:32:44That's right.
00:32:45You're new to this
00:32:46office.
00:32:46It's normal to get
00:32:47the wrong person,
00:32:48but he really is a
00:32:48filthy beggar.
00:32:49He can't possibly be
00:32:50the emperor.
00:32:51That's true.
00:32:52The emperor couldn't
00:32:53possibly be here.
00:32:54Wretched girl, look at
00:32:56the fine husband
00:32:56you've chosen.
00:32:58You've offended
00:32:58Lord Mottakue.
00:32:59I'll see how you
00:33:00plan to end this.
00:33:02My lord, you must
00:33:03uphold justice for us.
00:33:05This filthy beggar
00:33:06and Evelyn Sterling,
00:33:07they defied human
00:33:08ethics, even intended
00:33:09to murder us.
00:33:11Outrageous.
00:33:12At the foot of
00:33:13the Imperial City.
00:33:14How can you act
00:33:14so brazenly?
00:33:15Guards, take them
00:33:16to the dungeon
00:33:17of the Judicial Court.
00:33:18Interrogate them
00:33:18with torture.
00:33:19Wait!
00:33:21What else do you
00:33:22have to say?
00:33:23Since when was
00:33:24this position of
00:33:25Lord Justice Deputy?
00:33:26Yours to assume?
00:33:28You filthy beggar.
00:33:29How could you
00:33:29possibly know
00:33:30about court appointments?
00:33:31My brother
00:33:31was appointed
00:33:32by the Empress Dowager
00:33:33herself.
00:33:34What now?
00:33:34Regret finally
00:33:35sinking in?
00:33:36Even the Empress Dowager
00:33:37was deceived.
00:33:39Your Montague family
00:33:40truly is impressive.
00:33:45Empress Dowager,
00:33:46please speak up
00:33:47for your subject.
00:33:48His Majesty
00:33:49outside the palace
00:33:50married the eldest
00:33:50daughter of the Sterling
00:33:51family.
00:33:51Because that woman
00:33:52and His Majesty
00:33:53even lashed out?
00:33:53His Majesty married
00:33:54another woman
00:33:55outside the palace?
00:33:57Guards!
00:33:57Prepare the Sedan!
00:34:01Insolent!
00:34:02How dare you
00:34:03offend the Emperor
00:34:03Dowager?
00:34:04Are you trying
00:34:04to get yourself killed?
00:34:05Lord Montague,
00:34:06please see clearly
00:34:07our Sterling family
00:34:09has long severed ties
00:34:10with Evelyn Sterling.
00:34:11Every word she says
00:34:12has nothing to do
00:34:13with us.
00:34:14That's right,
00:34:14my lord.
00:34:14Our Sterling family
00:34:15has always followed
00:34:16the rules.
00:34:17We would never dare
00:34:18speak against
00:34:18the royal family.
00:34:19Please see the truth,
00:34:20my lord.
00:34:21The President and the
00:34:21Royalty is the
00:34:22capital of crime.
00:34:23You must not
00:34:23let them go,
00:34:24my lord.
00:34:24Evelyn Sterling,
00:34:25your dear husband
00:34:25has now committed
00:34:26a heinous crime.
00:34:28No matter who
00:34:29comes today,
00:34:30they cannot save you.
00:34:32I can't.
00:34:33I can't.
00:34:33I can't.
00:34:33Lucas break up
00:34:34behind Sparrus,
00:34:35my lord.
00:34:36He didn't mean
00:34:36to offend...
00:34:38Evelyn!
00:34:44Evelyn,
00:34:45let's go.
00:34:46How dare you!
00:34:47Trying to run?
00:34:48Guards,
00:34:48stop that.
00:34:49Whoever dares
00:34:49to block us again,
00:34:51kill without mercy.
00:34:52Yes, sir!
00:34:56Trying to escape?
00:34:58It's not that easy!
00:35:04Lucas!
00:35:09Lucas!
00:35:10Lucas!
00:35:11Josephine Sterling,
00:35:13why is your heart
00:35:13so vicious?
00:35:15Lucas has no
00:35:15grievance with you,
00:35:16yet you harms him
00:35:17so cruelly.
00:35:17this filthy beggar
00:35:19actually tried to have
00:35:19some disfigure me?
00:35:21Of course I couldn't
00:35:22let you leave.
00:35:23Lucas!
00:35:27Stop looking.
00:35:28Your man won't be here
00:35:29to save you this time.
00:35:30You've got a death wish!
00:35:32Lucas!
00:35:34Well, you still can't...
00:35:35Hurry and go!
00:35:35I can't!
00:35:36Go?
00:35:37You still think
00:35:38he can go?
00:35:38Josephine Sterling!
00:35:40Josephine Sterling!
00:35:42Why won't you just
00:35:43let me go?
00:35:46I have to admit,
00:35:48sister,
00:35:49you're truly fortunate
00:35:50of marrying a beggar
00:35:51you still found true love.
00:35:53What a pity!
00:35:54The more you're like this,
00:35:55the more impossible
00:35:56it is for me
00:35:56to let you have your way!
00:35:58You...
00:35:58Josephine,
00:36:00the grudge between us
00:36:01should not involve others.
00:36:03You can do
00:36:04whatever you want
00:36:04to me.
00:36:05I beg you.
00:36:06Let Lucas go, please.
00:36:08Avalyn,
00:36:09you don't need
00:36:10to waste your breath on her.
00:36:11I can't drag you into this.
00:36:12How touching.
00:36:14Even at a time like this.
00:36:16You still have time
00:36:17to flirt with this
00:36:18filthy beggar?
00:36:19Since you're feeling
00:36:20wrong so deep,
00:36:22I might as well
00:36:22send you both
00:36:23to death together.
00:36:26What are you waiting for?
00:36:28Die!
00:36:29I will watch out!
00:36:32The Emperor Stowager
00:36:33has arrived!
00:36:34I'd like to see
00:36:35who dares harm
00:36:36my royal son.
00:36:40He really is
00:36:41the Emperor?
00:36:44He...
00:36:45He really is the Emperor?
00:36:47Evelyn!
00:36:47Evelyn!
00:36:48Imperial physician!
00:36:50Call the Imperial physician
00:36:51quickly!
00:36:51Your Majesty!
00:36:52Victor Lanley,
00:36:53I ordered her
00:36:54immediately send her
00:36:55back for treatment.
00:36:56If anything happens
00:36:56to her,
00:36:57I'll make sure you pay.
00:36:58Your servitor base!
00:36:59Come, come, come!
00:37:00Hurry!
00:37:01Wait!
00:37:03Your Majesty,
00:37:04all members of the
00:37:05Starling family
00:37:05have been arrested.
00:37:07Your Majesty?
00:37:08Your...
00:37:09Your Majesty?
00:37:11What?
00:37:12You called him?
00:37:13Your Majesty!
00:37:14Wasn't he a beggar?
00:37:15Pass down my decree.
00:37:17Sebastian Serding
00:37:17and his family
00:37:18are executed
00:37:19on the spot!
00:37:20Master!
00:37:23Madam!
00:37:23Madam!
00:37:24Adam and Montague,
00:37:26as an official
00:37:27of the court,
00:37:27you abused your power
00:37:28and aided evil
00:37:29from this day forth.
00:37:30You are stripped
00:37:31of your duty,
00:37:32imprisoned
00:37:32along the Montague
00:37:33in the Judicial Court.
00:37:34Spare me,
00:37:35Your Majesty.
00:37:35Spare me.
00:37:36Please spare me,
00:37:37Your Majesty!
00:37:38Thank Your Majesty
00:37:39to revoke the order!
00:37:41It was my fault!
00:37:44I failed to see
00:37:45the truth,
00:37:46Your Majesty!
00:37:47When you humiliated
00:37:48Evelyn back then,
00:37:49did you ever think
00:37:50this day would come?
00:37:51Impossible!
00:37:54Given a second chance
00:37:55to life,
00:37:56how can I still
00:37:56make the wrong choice?
00:37:58Empress Dowager,
00:37:59I did commit
00:37:59a grave offense,
00:38:00but it was all
00:38:01under the orders
00:38:01of the Sterling family.
00:38:02Empress Dowager,
00:38:03please,
00:38:03for the sake
00:38:04of my father's honor,
00:38:05spare me once!
00:38:07I beg Your Majesty
00:38:07and Empress Dowager
00:38:08for mercy!
00:38:09Please have mercy,
00:38:10Empress Dowager!
00:38:11Have mercy,
00:38:12Empress Dowager!
00:38:13My son,
00:38:14although the two
00:38:15unfilial sons
00:38:16of the Montague family
00:38:17are foolish,
00:38:18they were not
00:38:18the masterminds.
00:38:19They should be punished
00:38:20later.
00:38:20The Sterling family
00:38:21is a household
00:38:22of commoners.
00:38:23To execute them all
00:38:24is indeed lacking
00:38:25consideration for the women.
00:38:27I saw that woman
00:38:28was badly injured,
00:38:29my son.
00:38:30You should go
00:38:30tend to her quickly.
00:38:31Lucas,
00:38:50are you alright?
00:38:50Are you alright?
00:38:52Did you get hurt?
00:38:53I'm fine.
00:38:54Lie down quickly.
00:38:54The Imperius Physician
00:38:55said you have to lie down.
00:38:57Come on.
00:38:58Imperial Physician?
00:38:59What is going on?
00:39:03Why are we in the palace?
00:39:05What exactly happened?
00:39:08It was the Empress Dowager
00:39:09who saved us.
00:39:10The Empress Dowager?
00:39:13You want to make
00:39:14Evelyn Sterling
00:39:15your Empress?
00:39:16I absolutely
00:39:16do not approve.
00:39:18I pledge myself
00:39:19to Evelyn
00:39:20for life in private.
00:39:22Whether you approve
00:39:22or not,
00:39:23I will overcome
00:39:23all obstacles
00:39:24to make Evelyn
00:39:25my Empress.
00:39:26If you truly
00:39:30wish to make
00:39:30her Empress,
00:39:31she must pass
00:39:32my test.
00:39:34But,
00:39:36but,
00:39:37before that,
00:39:39you must not
00:39:39let her know
00:39:40your identity.
00:39:42Otherwise,
00:39:43I have plenty
00:39:44of ways
00:39:45to stop you.
00:39:48She left the palace
00:39:49to pray.
00:39:50Just happened to walk
00:39:51by the Sterling State.
00:39:52That's how she saved us.
00:39:53Then,
00:39:57what about
00:39:58my father
00:39:59and the others?
00:40:00The Empress Dowager
00:40:00gave the order
00:40:01to have them all
00:40:02beaten 50 strikes each.
00:40:03Adrian Montague
00:40:04frequented
00:40:04the pleasure districts.
00:40:05His body
00:40:06couldn't take it
00:40:06and he fainted.
00:40:07The Empress Dowager
00:40:08ordered him
00:40:08to be put in confinement
00:40:09and your sister
00:40:10was also sent
00:40:11to the Office of Discipline
00:40:12to do hard labor.
00:40:13And for your father
00:40:14and the others,
00:40:15they were exiled.
00:40:17Exiled?
00:40:19Evelyn,
00:40:20from now on,
00:40:22I will protect you.
00:40:25I asked the Empress Dowager
00:40:26for a position
00:40:27and assigned you
00:40:28to the Imperial
00:40:28Household Bureau.
00:40:30From now on,
00:40:30the two of us
00:40:31will be working
00:40:31in the palace.
00:40:35That's wonderful.
00:40:36When the time comes,
00:40:38we may work
00:40:38in the palace
00:40:39for three to five years.
00:40:40Then we can leave together
00:40:41and live a simple life.
00:40:43Okay.
00:40:44Okay.
00:40:44Okay.
00:40:50Evelyn,
00:40:51I hope
00:40:52you can forgive me.
00:40:58Evelyn,
00:40:59when I have some free time,
00:41:00I'll come to see you.
00:41:02Alright.
00:41:05Greets!
00:41:14Guests should notify us
00:41:15before touring
00:41:16the Imperial Household Bureau.
00:41:20This one here
00:41:21is the steward
00:41:21of the Bureau,
00:41:22Ma'am Langston.
00:41:23If you need anything,
00:41:24just go to her.
00:41:27Greetings,
00:41:27Ma'am Langston.
00:41:30This one here
00:41:30is a newly arrived maid,
00:41:32Evelyn Sterling.
00:41:33In the days to come,
00:41:34please take good care
00:41:35of her,
00:41:35Ma'am Langston.
00:41:37Rest assured,
00:41:38I will take good care
00:41:39of Miss Evelyn.
00:41:40I definitely won't
00:41:41let her do heavy work.
00:41:47Lucas,
00:41:48I came here
00:41:50to work,
00:41:51right?
00:41:51Why does it feel like
00:41:52I'm being treated
00:41:53like a mistress?
00:41:57She...
00:41:58Maybe she's
00:42:02a nice person.
00:42:08Miss Evelyn,
00:42:09please come with me.
00:42:12Go ahead.
00:42:13You,
00:42:27clean all of these
00:42:28thoroughly.
00:42:30You and I both work
00:42:31at the Imperial Household Bureau.
00:42:33The tasks are assigned
00:42:34in advance.
00:42:34Why should I be the one
00:42:35to do your work?
00:42:36You've got the nerves
00:42:37to ask?
00:42:37It's because of you
00:42:38that I ended up
00:42:39cleaning the toilet bowl.
00:42:40Some people must have
00:42:41used certain means
00:42:42to learn a post here
00:42:43and somehow even
00:42:44earn Ma'am Langston's favor.
00:42:45She got all the
00:42:46Yeez's work
00:42:46assigned to you.
00:42:53Hey!
00:43:03Give it back to me!
00:43:04The dragon jade pendant?
00:43:09There's something
00:43:09only his majesty can wear.
00:43:11Hurry in and
00:43:11inform Madam Langston.
00:43:12Someone is stealing.
00:43:14Oh, majesty.
00:43:15Give it back to me
00:43:16right now.
00:43:16Ah!
00:43:24Ah!
00:43:25Ah!
00:43:26Ah!
00:43:26Ah!
00:43:26Ah!
00:43:26Ah!
00:43:26Ah!
00:43:26Ah!
00:43:26Ah!
00:43:26Ah!
00:43:27Ah!
00:43:27Ah!
00:43:27Ah!

00:43:28Ah!
00:43:28Ah!
00:43:28Ah!
00:43:28Ah!
00:43:29Ah!
00:43:29Ah!
00:43:30Ah!
00:43:30Ah!
00:43:30Ah!
00:43:31Ah!
00:43:31Ah!
00:43:31Ah!
00:43:32Ah!
00:43:32Ah!
00:43:33Ah!
00:43:34Ah!
00:43:34Everyone, stop right there.
00:43:41Your Grace, the 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, because I want to truly know Evelyn Sterling.
00:43:58She must never learn of my identity.
00:44:02Palace rules are strict.
00:44:10I was only gone for a little while.
00:44:12And you dare behave so wildly.
00:44:14What do you take the Imperial Healthful Bureau for?
00:44:16Ma'am, she stole his majesty's jade pendant.
00:44:21The 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, you must punish her properly.
00:44:29Ma'am, Lingsden, please let me explain.
00:44:31This isn't what happened.
00:44:33Enough.
00:44:34Hand over the jade pendant.
00:44:38The pendant belongs to me.
00:44:43I said hand over the jade pendant.
00:44:46The dragon jade pendant.
00:45:01It 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, please 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.
00:45:32I truly don't know how it could belong to his majesty.
00:45:34We confirm the pendant belongs to my son.
00:45:37Wouldn'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.
00:45:51Thank 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.
00:46:06Yes, ma'am.
00:46:11Your 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?
00:46:41Okay.
00:46:48Your majesty, Miss Caldwell has come to the palace again today.
00:46:54Do you wish to see her?
00:46:55No.
00:46:56Tell her to go back where she came from.
00:46:58This...
00:46:59You.
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.
00:47:14Lucas.
00:47:16Why are you here?
00:47:17How 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.
00:47:29It's just cleaning a toilet bowl is not a big deal.
00:47:32Avalyn.
00:47:36I...
00:47:36I'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, what's the story behind it?
00:47:54Why is it that they keep saying that the pendant belongs to his majesty?
00:47:58Oh, my father.
00:48:01My 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, I see.
00:48:10All they say is his majesty, his majesty.
00:48:12I thought maybe you were lying to me.
00:48:14Who's there?
00:48:22It's Madam Willems.
00:48:24Hurry up, go.
00:48:25Go let her see you.
00:48:25Tomorrow.
00:48:26I'll come to see you tomorrow again.
00:48:27Madam Willems, all 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.
00:48:57Why are you throwing my things?
00:49:04Madam Willems gave orders herself.
00:49:06She said at first light tomorrow, you're to deliver her medicine.
00:49:08Ma'am said, the medicine must be boiled with morning dew.
00:49:12Tonight, you should wait outside.
00:49:13Morning dew.
00:49:16Morning dew.
00:49:18Everyone heard it.
00:49:19I'm not making it up.
00:49:20Why is Madam Willems always picking on me?
00:49:23Madam Willems already showed me mercy by not punishing for the theft last time.
00:49:27All she asked was for you to collect the morning dew.
00:49:29You should be grateful.
00:49:30The pendant wasn't stolen at all.
00:49:31Stop falsely accusing me.
00:49:33Not stolen?
00:49:33Are you saying his majesty gave it to you himself?
00:49:45The night air is damped with dew.
00:49:47I'm going inside to get my own blanket.
00:49:48Is that not allowed?
00:49:50What arrogance.
00:49:51This is the Imperial Palace.
00:49:52There's no such thing as yours or mine.
00:49:54Don't think that just because Madam Willems
00:49:55so you can do whatever you want.
00:49:57Who said you could come in?
00:50:00Move aside.
00:50:08Avalyn.
00:50:11Avalyn.
00:50:12Are 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?
00:50:21Your majesty!
00:50:24You're the emperor.
00:50:32You're his majesty.
00:50:35Insolent servant!
00:50:39You must never let her discover your true identity.
00:50:42My deepest apologies, your majesty.
00:50:54I merely saw someone injured and acted out of concern.
00:50:59Fortunately, it wasn't his majesty.
00:51:01But has Master Langley been by his majesty's side?
00:51:05Master Langley, what is going on here?
00:51:09Oh, this young guy in here, he makes a strike in resemblance to his majesty.
00:51:14I specifically brought him to the palace to interrogate him.
00:51:17Uh-uh.
00:51:18Hey, you, the new one.
00:51:20How can you 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.
00:51:44As for you...
00:51:48Fragenizing with the guards is a grave matter.
00:51:50Yet, Madam Williams merely punished her with kneeling.
00:51:53The 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?
00:52:13I shall inform his majesty at once.
00:52:16It was you who stole his jade pendant.
00:52:17Let us see if he will still let you off so easily.
00:52:20Ah!
00:52:22Ah, my face!
00:52:24My face!
00:52:25Ah, my face!
00:52:27Ah, my face!
00:52:28Ah!
00:52:29You foolish serpent!
00:52:30What have you put in this bowl?
00:52:32I-I obtained a recipe from a tallist who claimed it could enhance one's beauty when consumed.
00:52:37I only wished to do what was best for Madam Williams, which is why I acted so foolishly.
00:52:45How 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?
00:52:53Madam!
00:52:54Guards!
00:52:54Drag her away and sell her to a slave trader!
00:52:57Madam Williams, have mercy!
00:52:59Madam, have mercy, please!
00:53:01Madam!
00:53:01Madam!
00:53:02Madam, have mercy!
00:53:04Madam!
00:53:04May I be permitted to try?
00:53:11You?
00:53:14You?
00:53:15I've studied medical texts, and I can prepare herbal remedy that might alleviate the rash on your face.
00:53:23If-
00:53:24If my myths prove effective, I beg you, Madam, to spare Isabella's life.
00:53:32His majesty has not paid me attention for a long time, yet I hear he has recently been visiting Imperial Household Bureau.
00:53:50Tell 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-I remember now!
00:54:03There is indeed someone who dares to do such a thing!
00:54:06Oh?
00:54:17It may not look appealing, but it is true that the rash has faded somewhat.
00:54:21It seems you do have some skill.
00:54:27Thank you for your praise, Madam.
00:54:29Adam, you need to only wait six more hours, and the rash will completely disappear.
00:54:34What are you trying to do now?
00:54:55If 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.
00:55:09I will accept any punishment or scolding you see fit.
00:55:19Why would I still-
00:55:20So you're willing to forgive me?
00:55:27You're not entirely a bad person.
00:55:30It's just that your words can be utterly vicious.
00:55:34Let's go.
00:55:42Let's go.
00:55:46Her majesty.
00:55:48I believe that his majesty's insistence on making Lady Evelyn the Empress does not seem like a mere impulse.
00:55:55Lady Evelyn truly possesses remarkable qualities.
00:56:00I'll see you to chestnut cake.
00:56:02It 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's finding a bride outside the palace is not me.
00:56:24But when did your lowly servants dare to entertain such wicked thoughts?
00:56:29When did Evelyn ever seduce his majesty?
00:56:30Isabella, have you forgotten how much we suffered because of her?
00:56:34Evelyn never once provoked me intentionally.
00:56:35It was you who kept taking fights deliberately.
00:56:39Isabella!
00:56:41Do you even know who I am?
00:56:43How dare you act so insolently in my presence?
00:56:45Caesar.
00:56:47Caesar.
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.
00:56:59What a fool!
00:56:59Since Lady Caldwell is the esteemed daughter of the Chancellor, surely you are a reasonable person.
00:57:04We 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.
00:57:10I heard from Eleanor that you not only seduced his majesty, but also entangled yourself with the guards.
00:57:15That face of yours is too dangerous to keep.
00:57:24Stop!
00:57:34Stop!
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.
00:57:50There is 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.
00:58:03Preposterous!
00:58:03Do you even know who stands before you?
00:58:06Aren't you just a lowborn servant?
00:58:11If I don't teach you a lesson, you'll never learn your place.
00:58:14Restrainer as well.
00:58:16Eleanor, you wouldn't dare.
00:58:18I never expected you to be so venomous at heart.
00:58:26Her majesty truly misjudged you.
00:58:28Huh.
00:58:29You dare call yourself her majesty?
00:58:31Who 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.
00:58:44It 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.
00:58:59To 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 House of Hero, you have allowed your mage to use his majesty.
00:59:08Such behaviors as a dangerous example.
00:59:10This is unforgivable.
00:59:11Fetch my way.
00:59:11The 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?
00:59:37His humble maid greets your majesty.
00:59:39I 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?
00:59:50His humble maid greets your majesty.
00:59:52I 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?
01:00:11It was me who offended Lady Caldwell.
01:00:12And I got wish for him to suffer 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.
01:00:26Otherwise...
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 the Empress Dowager.
01:00:45I greet the Empress Dowager.
01:00:46The 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...
01:01:11This humble subject admits her fault.
01:01:13I fail to recognize that you are 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.
01:01:29I implore your majesty to carefully consider the matter.
01:01:31How could you dare to offend the Empress Dowager?
01:01:42Admit your fault at once!
01:01:43This humble 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, Simon!
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!
01:02:07The 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 family!
01:02:22How dare you!
01:02:22Anna Caldwell!
01:02:23I always believed you to be a kind-hearted,
01:02:26yet I never expected you to be ruthless.
01:02:27You've overstepped your place and still dared to dream of becoming empress.
01:02:31You are sentenced to one year in the Office of Discipline to reflect on your actions.
01:02:34Office of Discipline...
01:02:35No!
01:02:36Your majesty!
01:02:37This office object gets miserable!
01:02:38Your majesty, please spare me!
01:02:40I do not want to get to the Office of Discipline!
01:02:43I have questions for you.
01:02:45Where is your majesty taking them?
01:03:03Evelyn!
01:03:05Lucas!
01:03:06Did the empress down to punish you?
01:03:08Of course not!
01:03:09Her 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!
01:03:23There 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!
01:03:39Why not let Evelyn organize the Spring Blossom Banquet?
01:03:41If she can manage this banquet, it will not only prove her capability, but 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.
01:03:59Trust 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 there is a slack-off, my whip shows no mercy!
01:04:20You useless 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, no one gets to laze around!
01:04:37Evelyn Sterling, this is all your fault!
01:04:43Get it!
01:04:44Don't touch me!
01:04:45I'm the daughter of Chancellor Caldwell!
01:04:47Yeah.
01:04:48But I better show some respect!
01:04:54The daughter of Chancellor Caldwell?
01:04:57In 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.
01:05:09What a wretched place!
01:05:16They expect me, a lady, to wash my clothes myself?
01:05:21Where did this lowly maid come from?
01:05:23I...
01:05:24Lady, 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.
01:05:39My 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.
01:06:02Entrusting you at the banquet's organization was indeed a wide choice.
01:06:06Many thanks for your majesty's praise.
01:06:07Your majesty, terrible news.
01:06:10The office of discipline is on fire.
01:06:11What?
01:06:19Sir, what is the situation inside?
01:06:22The fire has engulfed the entire rear courtyard.
01:06:23Nearly half the people couldn't make it out.
01:06:26Anna Caldwell.
01:06:27Your 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!
01:06:55With 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?
01:07:03I'm married to life?
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.
01:07:12This 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,
01:07:31I 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 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.
01:07:57I 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.
01:08:18Evelyn Sterling, I thought you had sword 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, I will make sure you pay it.
01:08:37Edmund, let me out, please.
01:08:49This is driving me crazy.
01:08:55You don't get to complain.
01:08:57If it weren't for you and Josephine, two fools,
01:09:00I wouldn't have offended his majesty and lost my position.
01:09:04It'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,
01:09:20you still have the guts to come back?
01:09:22Edmund, it's all because Evelyn.
01:09:24Instead of blaming each other here,
01:09:27you should think how to get back at her.
01:09:30Get back at her?
01:09:32She's like royalty now.
01:09:34How to get back at her, huh?
01:09:35I saw her once at the office of discipline.
01:09:40She was wearing a lonely palace-maid 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,
01:09:53why 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.
01:10:04Spring 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,
01:10:18I'll impress everyone.
01:10:20As long as I win the Empress Dowager's favor,
01:10:22our family will rise again.
01:10:31It's going to be all nobles and high officials.
01:10:48Check everything fairly.
01:10:50We cannot afford to 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!
01:11:13Avalyn,
01:11:14if you like these pastries,
01:11:16I can get you more.
01:11:21Glad this is a remote area
01:11:23with no patrols.
01:11:25Otherwise,
01:11:26I can't meet like this.
01:11:30Avalyn,
01:11:36once the banquet ends,
01:11:40wait 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,
01:11:50look over there.
01:11:54Look over there.
01:11:59Avalyn,
01:12:00and a palace guard.
01:12:01Oh, right. You're on duty today. Let's hurry back.
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.
01:12:31This is the Imperial Palace, not your place, all right?
01:12:42Everything you do here is washed by his majesty and the Empress Gouger.
01:12:45You were just released. Have 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.
01:12:55If you serve us well, I may reward you.
01:12:58If not, you'll get kicked out.
01:13:02You were lucky to have got 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 from head to toe.
01:13:17Greetings, Empress Gouger.
01:13:18Greetings, Empress Gouger.
01:13:30Evelyn.
01:13:32Preparing the banquet must be exhausting.
01:13:35Once it is over, I will reward you properly.
01:13:38It's just my duty.
01:13:39Thanks for your grace.
01:13:41Your Highness, I have something to say.
01:13:44Speak.
01:13:45I wish to report Evelyn's improper relationship with the guard.
01:13:52Oh?
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 a guard.
01:14:09But before entering the palace, we already had developed feelings.
01:14:13In the palace, we only met occasionally.
01:14:15There was nothing improper.
01:14:17If you weren't guilty, why did you hurry away in that moment you saw us?
01:14:21This should be punishable by death.
01:14:23Your Highness, I assist them as 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.
01:15:00But 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.
01:15:09Bye!
01:15:09Evelyn, lead me to the banquet site.
01:15:12Yes.
01:15:13Farewell, 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,
01:15:41we can just...
01:15:42Your Majesty, the banquet is that way.
01:15:51Where are you going?
01:15:52It's about to begin.
01:15:53You'll be late.
01:15:54I've thought it over.
01:15:55I should let her know the truth before the banquet.
01:15:58Go tell Evelyn.
01:15:59To meet me will reward before.
01:16:04Eunuch Langley.
01:16:05Come here.
01:16:06What's going on?
01:16:16We've done a great job this time.
01:16:18They'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.
01:16:26Go.
01:16:27Who is it?
01:16:28Assassins!
01:16:31Protect the Empress Dowager!
01:16:36What's going on inside?
01:16:37An assassin disguised as a dancer.
01:16:39Lord Montague took the blow for her majesty,
01:16:41and the assassin escaped.
01:16:42What?
01:16:44Take her away.
01:16:46What are you doing?
01:16:48There is an assassin.
01:16:48We are arresting Evelyn to the judicial court.
01:16:51What?
01:16:51Me?
01:16:52My lord, he's the suspect.
01:17:01Maid Evelyn Sterling.
01:17:03He's the Prime Minister.
01:17:04So, she's the one who harmed Dana.
01:17:07Chancellor Caldwell.
01:17:09She was in charge of the palace banquet.
01:17:11How dare you?
01:17:13How dare you plan assassination against the Empress Dowager?
01:17:16Are you rebelling?
01:17:18I'm not.
01:17:18I personally verified the identity of everyone.
01:17:22I have no idea where the assassin came from.
01:17:24Of course you don't.
01:17:25Right before the banquet,
01:17:26you were secretly meeting with the guard.
01:17:28You were so affectionate
01:17:29that you just ignore everything around you.
01:17:32What?
01:17:33Is this true?
01:17:34Chancellor,
01:17:35I can testify.
01:17:36That very guard is still at the Ministry of Rights.
01:17:38Someone.
01:17:39Bring that guard here.
01:17:40I will get to the bottom of this.
01:17:45Why hasn't Evelyn come yet?
01:17:52Sir, here's the guard.
01:18:04Are you alright, Lucas?
01:18:08Evelyn Sterling,
01:18:09how do you plead?
01:18:10Please investigate thoroughly.
01:18:12Since you're as an assassin,
01:18:13it's my fault indeed.
01:18:14I only beg you not to implicate anyone else.
01:18:16The palace is heavily guarded.
01:18:18An outsider could never get in.
01:18:20Evelyn must have secretly colluded with the assassin,
01:18:23if not for my husband's great reaction.
01:18:25You should have been executed by now.
01:18:28Chancellor Campbell,
01:18:29I really don't know about the assassin.
01:18:31I beg you,
01:18:32they'll grant me some time.
01:18:33I will cover the truth behind this matter.
01:18:35Enough.
01:18:36Made Evelyn Sterling colluded with the guard,
01:18:39disrupted palace order,
01:18:40and put the Empress Dowager in danger.
01:18:42Both of them
01:18:43are to be executed immediately.
01:18:52No.
01:18:53Chesler,
01:18:54we broke over water.
01:18:55Chesler,
01:18:55I'm begging.
01:18:57Chesler.
01:18:58Chesler,
01:18:58don't.
01:18:59Chesler,
01:19:00please.
01:19:02Chesler.
01:19:03Lucas,
01:19:04I'm sorry.
01:19:05It's not my fault.
01:19:06I'm so sorry.
01:19:12Stop now.
01:19:26Don't you dare touch her.
01:19:30Your Majesty.
01:19:32Long live your Majesty.
01:19:37Long live your Majesty.
01:19:39How dare you
01:19:43condemning the innocent
01:19:44without discerning right from wrong.
01:19:47This is totally outrageous.
01:19:56You keep going against Evelyn
01:19:57every turn.
01:19:58Today,
01:19:58if I weren't here,
01:20:00you would have gotten your way.
01:20:02Your Majesty,
01:20:03I didn't mean to hurt my sister.
01:20:05Your Majesty,
01:20:06Evelyn was in charge of the banquet
01:20:07that she allowed assassins in
01:20:09to hurt the Empress Dowager.
01:20:11I thank you.
01:20:11Your Majesty issued
01:20:12an order at once
01:20:13to imprison her
01:20:14for further interrogation.
01:20:15Chesler,
01:20:15go was right.
01:20:16If it weren't for my husband's presence today,
01:20:18the Empress Dowager
01:20:19might not have survived.
01:20:20Your Majesty,
01:20:20my life is of no consequence,
01:20:22but Evelyn must be punished.
01:20:26Your Majesty,
01:20:27my life is of no consequence,
01:20:29but Evelyn must be punished.
01:20:31If this happens again,
01:20:33who will protect the palace?
01:20:35Please,
01:20:38you must punish Evelyn.
01:20:40Adrian Montague,
01:20:41are you making decisions for me?
01:20:43The Empress Dowager
01:20:44has been traumatized today.
01:20:46If your Majesty
01:20:46doesn't punish Evelyn,
01:20:47what if others follow her example?
01:20:49The consequences
01:20:50will be unimaginable.
01:20:51I request your Majesty
01:20:52to punish Evelyn.
01:20:53I beg your Majesty
01:20:55to punish Evelyn.
01:20:56Is that so?
01:21:03If I have evidence
01:21:04that Evelyn's innocent,
01:21:05what should you be punished for?
01:21:13Possible.
01:21:15Nicholas,
01:21:16I'm asking you!
01:21:19They're fine.
01:21:20What's wrong about her?
01:21:22I'm willing to receive
01:21:23the same punishment.
01:21:24Okay.
01:21:26Come on.
01:21:27Bring them to me.
01:21:31Your Majesty is wise.
01:21:33Following your orders,
01:21:34I've ready arranged for guards
01:21:36to capture the assassin.
01:21:38Your Majesty,
01:21:39spare me.
01:21:40The assassination
01:21:41was all Josephine and Andrew's idea.
01:21:43I was truly forced into it.
01:21:44Your Majesty,
01:21:45spare me.
01:21:45Your Majesty,
01:21:46please spare me.
01:21:46It's over.
01:21:47It's all over.
01:21:49Guards,
01:21:49take Nicholas away.
01:21:51Your Majesty,
01:21:52I've been serving the royals
01:21:54for decades.
01:21:56I'm absolutely loyal.
01:21:58Your Majesty,
01:21:59please don't do this to me.
01:22:01Your Majesty.
01:22:06Your Majesty.
01:22:07That's for you two.
01:22:09Your Majesty,
01:22:09Your Majesty,
01:22:10this has nothing to do with me.
01:22:11It was all her.
01:22:12She ordered me to do it.
01:22:14Your life.
01:22:14Your Majesty,
01:22:15I was only jealous of my sister.
01:22:17The assassination
01:22:17was all Adrian's idea.
01:22:19And taking the flu
01:22:20was all part of this act.
01:22:21Your Majesty.
01:22:22Damn it.
01:22:23How dare you betray me.
01:22:25Enough.
01:22:26Adrian Montague,
01:22:28Josephine Sterling,
01:22:29as masterminds,
01:22:31will be executed right now.
01:22:35Lock Catherine
01:22:36in the judicial court.
01:22:37Wait for further orders.
01:22:39Your Majesty.
01:22:40Your Majesty.
01:22:41Please give me a chance,
01:22:42Your Majesty.
01:22:43Your Majesty.
01:22:43I hate you.
01:22:45If that were you,
01:22:47all of this would have been mine.
01:22:48Your love.
01:22:50It's all because of yourself,
01:22:51not me.
01:22:54You brought all of this
01:22:55upon yourself.
01:23:04Evelyn.
01:23:07Hi.
01:23:11So, Your Majesty,
01:23:12what is your real name?

01:23:23have been taken away.
