Transcript

00:00:01Your Majesty, the Chancellor and the Prince request you to return to Zorin and take charge.

00:00:05Take charge, huh? Isn't he already the heir?

00:00:08If he can, back him. If not, then the throne is his.

00:00:12Go back now. Don't look for me again.

00:00:22Understood.

00:00:34Sir!

00:00:39I'm in danger. Help me!

00:00:44Follow me.

00:00:58Search for her! She's been drugged! She won't get far! Move!

00:01:03Miss, you're safe now. You can get off the boat.

00:01:08Sir...

00:01:09What's wrong?

00:01:11It's so hot, sir.

00:01:14Help me. Help me.

00:01:16Miss, you...

00:01:17Hey, what are you...

00:01:18Are you okay?

00:01:21Huh?

00:01:40lost in the room.

00:01:56Last night...

00:01:57Wait here, I can't help you.

00:02:02You really don't...

00:02:02No для себя.

00:02:04Thank you for saving me.

00:02:06What do you want?

00:02:07Don't worry about it.

00:02:08You can't give what I want.

00:02:10Can I give it?

00:02:12Do you even know who I am?

00:02:14Queen of Pharrell.

00:02:16Elara Pharrell.

00:02:17How do you know that?

00:02:20You dropped this last night.

00:02:25Strange.

00:02:25He knows who I am, yet he's still so calm.

00:02:28Others would be kneeling by now.

00:02:31And there's something about his aura.

00:02:34Sir, are you really just a commoner?

00:02:36What's wrong with being a commoner?

00:02:38I'm okay and free.

00:02:41That's true.

00:02:42Even though I'm a queen, I'm still hunted by dangerous rebel troops and nearly lost my life.

00:02:47I think I'd be better off as a commoner.

00:02:48At least, I wouldn't live in constant fear.

00:02:53In Pharrell, what you like as a leader ascends the throne.

00:02:56You should watch over the officials.

00:02:58Without central power, of course, rebellions break out easily.

00:03:02You think I haven't tried?

00:03:03I set up the Royal Guard Bureau before, but results were poor.

00:03:07How could it have worked?

00:03:08Your bureau was filled with sons of noble houses.

00:03:12They weren't loyal to you and only boosted the noble's power.

00:03:16My advice?

00:03:16Rebuild the Royal Guard.

00:03:18As for who should command it, pick someone of humble birth with no strong backing but with real talent and

00:03:24skill.

00:03:24And who is only loyal to you.

00:03:30Sir.

00:03:31Hmm?

00:03:32Are you really just a fish seller?

00:03:35What else?

00:03:38Your majesty!

00:03:39We finally found you!

00:03:41The rebellion's crushed!

00:03:42You can return now and take charge again!

00:03:47Why are you looking at me?

00:03:49You should hurry back.

00:03:50Restore the Royal Guard Bureau.

00:03:52Yes.

00:03:55Sir, I want to know.

00:03:56What is your name?

00:03:59Julian Zoran.

00:04:05From now on, I, Queen of Varel, will follow the Zoran Empire and restore the Royal Guard Bureau to hunt

00:04:12the traitors down.

00:04:13And my candidate for the Royal Guard commander.

00:04:17Commander of the Royal Guard Bureau.

00:04:22Top scholar Adrian Zoran, who was born poor, is talented and very young.

00:04:27Isn't this the kind of person that's perfect for the job?

00:04:30Adrian.

00:04:34Your majesty.

00:04:36The position will be temporarily filled by the scholar Adrian Zoran.

00:04:41What did she just say?

00:04:43What did she just say?

00:04:46Me?

00:04:48Adrian.

00:04:49I am entrusting this position to you.

00:04:52And you must ensure...

00:04:54Your majesty.

00:04:55Your majesty.

00:04:56Absolutely not.

00:04:58You don't want it.

00:05:00I lack the knowledge for this.

00:05:03I can't take this position.

00:05:04Adrian stays here.

00:05:06Court is dismissed.

00:05:09Long live, your majesty.

00:05:11Long live, your majesty.

00:05:40And bear in mind that being the commander of the Royal Guard Bureau is powerful.

00:05:48It's perfect for someone to show off their skills.

00:05:51Others would kill for this position.

00:05:53So why are you turning it down?

00:05:54What do you mean it's a powerful post?

00:05:56The court is dominated by the noble houses.

00:05:58Someone like me with no background will drop dead if I oppose them.

00:06:02Adrian?

00:06:03Your majesty.

00:06:04It's just that I'm not very skilled.

00:06:06I have no strong ties.

00:06:08I truly cannot bear this burden.

00:06:10And besides, my mother died young.

00:06:11Also, my father cannot live on his own.

00:06:13He's waiting for me to take care of him in his old age.

00:06:16Your majesty.

00:06:17You should pick someone more capable.

00:06:19Why are you this frightened?

00:06:20You've no backbone as a scholar.

00:06:22Is this how you were raised?

00:06:23My dad is even more timid than me.

00:06:27Like father, like son.

00:06:28Who cares?

00:06:29I was taught by a great master.

00:06:30And you are the best candidate for this position, understand?

00:06:33If you say no, I'll kill your dad.

00:06:38I shall accept.

00:06:41What kind of master is that?

00:06:43They're going to get me killed for sure.

00:06:50So he's the new top scholar?

00:06:52He's quite handsome and very charming.

00:06:54You're way too kind.

00:06:56The top scholar just smiled at me.

00:07:02Hey, look.

00:07:03He's the new top scholar.

00:07:04He has such presence and poise.

00:07:07He's impressive.

00:07:08You can tell he's born to be a high official.

00:07:10What's great about an office, you brat?

00:07:12Old Zoo.

00:07:13Hey, you can't talk like that here.

00:07:14He's the top scholar of the realm.

00:07:16How can you call him a brat?

00:07:18That person there is my son.

00:07:19So I'll call him whatever I want.

00:07:21Huh?

00:07:22Yeah, sure.

00:07:23So the top scholar is your son, you say?

00:07:26You might as well say that the reigning queen is also your wife.

00:07:30You might as well say that our reigning queen is also your wife.

00:07:34Huh?

00:07:35Yeah, old Joe.

00:07:36Aside from your good looks, you're just like us.

00:07:39Just a stinky fishmonger.

00:07:40The bottom of the barrel.

00:07:41That's right.

00:07:42What nonsense are you two talking about, huh?

00:07:45Have some respect.

00:07:45It's important to know your value, you know?

00:07:47Oh, is that so?

00:07:48I mean, we all have one head on two shoulders.

00:07:50Why should we fear anyone?

00:07:52Yeah, yeah.

00:07:53Stop bragging.

00:07:54Hey, Silas.

00:07:55Come over here.

00:07:55Come.

00:07:56Look at this.

00:07:56I caught it this morning when I went fishing.

00:07:58Look.

00:08:00So how's your mother doing?

00:08:02Stop.

00:08:03Here, take it.

00:08:05Tell her I said hi.

00:08:10Dad.

00:08:11Dad?

00:08:12Oh, hey there, son.

00:08:14That robe looks good.

00:08:15So festive.

00:08:16Hey, Dad.

00:08:17Huh?

00:08:17Are you selling fish?

00:08:18You should just move to the capital to enjoy your life.

00:08:22Eh, go if you want.

00:08:23But I won't go.

00:08:24I'm happy selling fish here.

00:08:25Hey, hey, old Zoom.

00:08:26Huh?

00:08:27Is that man really your son?

00:08:28I told you he is.

00:08:28I guarantee it.

00:08:29Wow.

00:08:30Don't we look at him?

00:08:30Oh, yeah, you do.

00:08:32Dad, but I already have a high post.

00:08:34And you're selling fish.

00:08:35Isn't that so strange?

00:08:36I told you not to become an official.

00:08:38I told you that.

00:08:39But then you did it anyway.

00:08:41What can I do about it?

00:08:42Hey, Dadadadad.

00:08:44So right now, I'm commander of the Royal Guard Bureau.

00:08:47All those noble houses are targeting me, just waiting for me to slip up.

00:08:51If they find out that my dad still sells fish here,

00:08:53they will impeach me just because I'm different from them.

00:08:56Wait, so you're saying that her majesty made you the commander of the Bureau just like that?

00:08:59Yeah, that's right.

00:09:00I have no idea whose bright idea it was to tell the queen that I'm perfect for the job.

00:09:05I curse all his ancestors.

00:09:07You're such a brat.

00:09:08You better wash your mouth.

00:09:10But you're not the one I curse, though.

00:09:13Yeah, fair point.

00:09:14Dad, Dad, Dad, Dad, Dad.

00:09:16Recently, Grand Chancellor Vale of the Zoran Empire will be coming to Varel to discuss an alliance.

00:09:21I heard that the Zoran Empire is about ten times stronger than Varel.

00:09:25They rule by honoring filial piety.

00:09:27If those rumors spread right now that I'm unfilial,

00:09:29then how am I supposed to keep my post?

00:09:32Silly boy.

00:09:33Don't you worry.

00:09:34I'll tell Lord Cedric Vale you're very filial.

00:09:36Problem solved.

00:09:37Make way, make way.

00:09:39Ooh, look at all the big fish I have.

00:09:41Yes, just leave it to me.

00:09:44Dad!

00:09:46How will you talk to him?

00:09:47Who do you think you are to talk to him?

00:09:49Do you even know him like that?

00:09:50Well, I do know him.

00:09:51I'm telling you.

00:09:53I've got work to do.

00:09:54I'll come see you tonight.

00:09:55I'm telling you.

00:09:56I'll think it through.

00:09:58All right, all right, bye.

00:09:59See you, yes, goodbye.

00:10:02That little brat never believes me, honestly.

00:10:04Master Zhu, so your son is a top scholar.

00:10:07Well, I've got several sons.

00:10:09Several of them, so, hey!

00:10:11Hey, slow down!

00:10:12Be careful on your way!

00:10:16Was that her majesty?

00:10:19No way.

00:10:20How could she come here?

00:10:26Fair presence here!

00:10:28Freshly caught fish!

00:10:30Your highness, that man is just a fish seller.

00:10:33While you're as a ruler of the realm.

00:10:34So, how could he be worthy of you?

00:10:37Do I not get a say in my own marriage?

00:10:39Are you like those ministers?

00:10:41You want me to marry someone noble?

00:10:43I don't!

00:10:44I don't!

00:10:44Your majesty!

00:10:46I know you don't like those noble heirs.

00:10:48But you don't have to pick a fish seller either, right?

00:10:51There are plenty of bright young men from poor families.

00:10:54Oh, like the new top scholar Adrian.

00:10:56He's pretty good, right?

00:10:56If you keep talking, I'll marry you off to the pig seller.

00:11:00Hey, over here!

00:11:01Buy some pork!

00:11:04Huh?

00:11:05I don't want to!

00:11:06Hey, you!

00:11:07Let's get married!

00:11:08Huh?

00:11:09B-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-married?

00:11:13Hey, you!

00:11:14Huh?

00:11:14Let's get married!

00:11:16Huh?

00:11:16M-m-m-m-married?

00:11:20You already slept with me.

00:11:22Take responsibility.

00:11:23Hey, hey, hey, hey, old Zoo!

00:11:25When did you snag yourself?

00:11:26Such a pretty girl!

00:11:27I want one too!

00:11:28You'll beat it!

00:11:28Stop it!

00:11:29When did I snag her?

00:11:31He totally did. I want to marry you.

00:11:33You're still the ruler of a kingdom. At least think of your image.

00:11:37Is this really the cold, ruthless Queen Alara?

00:11:40No, me and your son. No, you're my son's age. How could we get married?

00:11:45What? You have a son?

00:11:47Yes.

00:11:48He has a son?

00:11:49Yes.

00:11:49Uh-huh, yes.

00:11:50You have all met him, right?

00:11:51Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

00:11:53Then, during that night, how come I didn't see your wife?

00:11:58The kid's had it rough. His mom passed early.

00:12:01That's perfect. I won't be the sidewife. Let's get married.

00:12:05Mary! Mary! Mary! Mary! Mary!

00:12:09Oh, no. She wanted to be a concubine. What kind of lovesick brain is that?

00:12:14Stop shouting!

00:12:15You troublemaker. There's too many people. Let's talk elsewhere, okay?

00:12:19Come on. Butcher King, watch the stall.

00:12:21Yeah, sure, sure. Man, old Zhu is lucky.

00:12:28A queen? A fisherman? In her 20s? In his 40s? Th-this-this-this-this doesn't seem right.

00:12:35I think that it's perfect.

00:12:37You get to be an empress, isn't that awesome? Don't you joke with me!

00:12:42Hmm.

00:12:43Everyone thinks being emperor is great, but emperors never control their own lives.

00:12:50That is true. Misery no one tells.

00:12:53Hey, sir. What's with that face? What is it? Were you an emperor? How's that possible?

00:12:59Hmm?

00:13:00Managing fish is hard. Managing people must be worse. That is plausible, right?

00:13:05Yeah.

00:13:06Hmm.

00:13:07In the whole court, besides Lena, my one-trusted aide, I don't trust anyone. No wonder old emperors called themselves

00:13:14lonely.

00:13:15In an emperor's world, you can't trust anyone.

00:13:19Hmm.

00:13:20In my court, those ministers control state affairs and meddle in my life, saying that if I don't marry, there's

00:13:27no heir, and the court won't be stable.

00:13:29Especially lately, Lord Cedric Vale came to be an ally.

00:13:32To stop him from thinking Varel is unstable, just help me out.

00:13:37Okay?

00:13:38Okay. Even if... it's just a fake marriage with me.

00:13:44That's Cedric Vale. Makes my life hard.

00:13:48Listen to yourself. Cedric Vale. You know him, too?

00:13:52Of course I do.

00:13:53Cedric Vale is Zoran's Grand Chancellor. That empire is the Supreme Empire. We are all just their vassals.

00:14:00Since the Holy Emperor vanished, Cedric Vale has been the most powerful man. You know him?

00:14:06Yeah, right.

00:14:07I really do know him. Me and...

00:14:09Sir, just help me out, okay?

00:14:12I really can't help you. Go ask someone else.

00:14:15Hey, sir, please help me!

00:14:17Stop shaking! You're hurting me!

00:14:19Sir!

00:14:20I can't take it! Stop shaking me!

00:14:23Sir!

00:14:24This is insane!

00:14:27Help me!

00:14:29Help me!

00:14:29Stop! Stop! I can't keep going! I surrender!

00:14:34He's done already?

00:15:03Men in their 40s really are past their prime.

00:15:06No need. I know all of that.

00:15:09You're just a fishmonger. How would you know?

00:15:11Each badge means a different rank.

00:15:13If you get it wrong, you'll give yourself away.

00:15:15Civil robes have birds. Military robes have beasts.

00:15:17Red robes are for fourth-ranked military officers.

00:15:19Purple robes for first-ranked ministers.

00:15:21We copied all this from Zoran Empire.

00:15:23Not much difference.

00:15:24Hey, are you just a fishmonger?

00:15:27How do you know so much?

00:15:28What now? You look down on fishmongers?

00:15:30Even a fishmonger really cares about the state.

00:15:33Understand?

00:15:34Well said.

00:15:36Mister, these were words that my father left me.

00:15:40No lies, no stubborn pride, no obsession, no ego.

00:15:44This is from the Analects, Zihan.

00:15:46Looks like your father had high hopes for you.

00:15:50You've read the classics?

00:15:52You can read?

00:15:53Uh, well, honestly, I just know a few characters.

00:15:58Oh, right.

00:15:59Looks like I found a gem.

00:16:03Mister.

00:16:14Mister.

00:16:15Yeah?

00:16:16I am starting to like you.

00:16:21Your Majesty!

00:16:23Oh, dear.

00:16:27Your Majesty!

00:16:28In broad daylight, please do have some restraint.

00:16:31If others see this, it won't look good for you.

00:16:34My apologies.

00:16:37Did you bring the stuff?

00:16:39I did.

00:16:41Mister, I have a gift for you.

00:16:43As the Queen's Royal Consort.

00:16:45You can't keep wearing rough linen.

00:16:47Why?

00:16:50Yes, yes, yes.

00:16:53Sir.

00:16:54And this one, sir.

00:16:56Take one pill morning and night.

00:16:58For Her Majesty's well-being.

00:17:00That is all that I can do.

00:17:02Hmm?

00:17:04Oh?

00:17:25Whoa!

00:17:27Whoa!

00:17:28This...

00:17:29This is insane!

00:17:32You like it, too?

00:17:34Of course I do!

00:17:37Oh!

00:17:38Your Majesty!

00:17:39That's not what I meant!

00:17:40I just...

00:17:41Huh?

00:17:42What do you think?

00:17:43About it?

00:17:43Sir!

00:17:44With your presence,

00:17:45when we stand together,

00:17:47you look like the Emperor,

00:17:48and we are all your men!

00:17:50Ha ha ha ha!

00:17:51Is it really that obvious?

00:17:53Sir?

00:17:54Huh?

00:17:54What was that?

00:17:55I just said it's about time.

00:17:57So let's go!

00:17:58Uh, let's go!

00:17:59Ha ha ha ha!

00:18:00Young Master Edgar,

00:18:01of all of the noble house heirs,

00:18:03you are the youngest

00:18:04and a Royal Academy scholar.

00:18:07I heard lately

00:18:08Her Majesty's choosing a husband.

00:18:09I'd say,

00:18:10it has to be you.

00:18:14You?

00:18:15If I became

00:18:16Her Majesty's husband,

00:18:17wouldn't that make me

00:18:19King of Vero?

00:18:20Oh, well, of course.

00:18:23Not necessarily.

00:18:25That new top scholar,

00:18:26Adrian Zorin,

00:18:27is a real rival.

00:18:28Ah, Adrian Zorin's nothing.

00:18:30He's just a country nobody.

00:18:32How could he compare to

00:18:33young Master Edgar?

00:18:35Ah,

00:18:35Her Majesty has arrived!

00:18:47Greetings,

00:18:48Your Majesty!

00:18:49You may all rise.

00:18:51Today we welcome

00:18:52Grand Chancellor Vale.

00:18:53Everyone,

00:18:54enjoy yourselves.

00:18:55No need to be stiff.

00:18:56Huh?

00:18:57Who is that man?

00:18:58Why is he with

00:18:59Her Majesty?

00:19:00Why does he look

00:19:01so familiar?

00:19:02Allow me to introduce.

00:19:04This

00:19:05is my fiancé.

00:19:06He is Julian Zorin.

00:19:08Huh?

00:19:12Your Majesty,

00:19:13since when did you

00:19:14have a fiancé?

00:19:16For quite some time.

00:19:18But

00:19:18he's been working

00:19:19away from home,

00:19:20he just returned.

00:19:21So,

00:19:22I brought him

00:19:22to meet you all.

00:19:24I've been busy.

00:19:25Her Majesty

00:19:26has really high standards.

00:19:28Sir,

00:19:28what background

00:19:29do you have?

00:19:29To catch

00:19:30Her Majesty's eye!

00:19:31Your surname

00:19:31is Zorin?

00:19:32Are you from

00:19:33the Zorin Royal family?

00:19:35Wow!

00:19:36He's quite handsome.

00:19:41Mr. Zorin?

00:19:43Yes?

00:19:44I'm Edgar Asherent,

00:19:45of the House of Vanyang.

00:19:46Mr. Zorin,

00:19:47are you from

00:19:48the Zorin Royal line?

00:19:49No,

00:19:50the House of Vanyang Ashford.

00:19:51It's also one

00:19:52of the top noble houses.

00:19:54Yes,

00:19:55I'm from the Zorin Empire.

00:20:00Lord Zhu,

00:20:01what position

00:20:02did you hold

00:20:02back in the Zorin?

00:20:04I'm nobody important.

00:20:05I just happen to know

00:20:06most of the officials

00:20:07of third rank and above.

00:20:11That's about it.

00:20:14He knows just about

00:20:15every high-ranking official

00:20:16and his surname's show.

00:20:18Don't tell me

00:20:19you're a prince of Zorin?

00:20:23Don't tell me

00:20:24you're a prince of Zorin?

00:20:28Close enough.

00:20:29Right.

00:20:30I knew it

00:20:31when I saw

00:20:32His Highness just now

00:20:32you carry yourself

00:20:33with such presence.

00:20:34It's just that

00:20:35I got it wrong

00:20:36for a moment

00:20:37and mistook you

00:20:37for a fishmonger

00:20:38from Greenford Country.

00:20:39My mistake,

00:20:40truly.

00:20:40My mistake.

00:20:41What's wrong

00:20:41with selling fish?

00:20:42Don't look down

00:20:43on fish sellers.

00:20:44Listen,

00:20:44running a fish stall

00:20:46and commanding people

00:20:47are two very different things.

00:20:49Aren't they?

00:20:52Ah, yes, yes.

00:20:53You're absolutely right.

00:20:55I misspoke.

00:20:55My mistake.

00:20:57No, no.

00:20:57No need.

00:20:58My husband just returned

00:20:59so he's not very familiar

00:21:00with the Zorin Empire yet.

00:21:02Everyone,

00:21:03please ask him something else.

00:21:04Your Majesty,

00:21:05the Zorin Empire

00:21:06is the supreme realm

00:21:07under heaven.

00:21:07It's rare for us

00:21:08to meet His Highness.

00:21:09Let His Highness

00:21:09tell us about Zorin.

00:21:10What do you all think?

00:21:11Yes, that's right.

00:21:13That's right.

00:21:14There is not much

00:21:15to tell actually.

00:21:16It's just that

00:21:16around this time

00:21:18it's the lambing season

00:21:19for the northern step raiders

00:21:20so the Zorin Empire

00:21:21is going to push north first

00:21:22and strike the raiders.

00:21:24This time,

00:21:24Lord Cedric Vale

00:21:25came to see you

00:21:26with Varel

00:21:26all because we need

00:21:27to secure grain and fodder.

00:21:30I didn't think

00:21:31he even knew that.

00:21:33And therefore,

00:21:34families like

00:21:35the Ashfords of Fanyang,

00:21:36the Wangs of Langya,

00:21:38the Moorlands of Greenford

00:21:39and so on.

00:21:40You noble houses

00:21:41more grain for years now

00:21:42and this time around

00:21:43bring out all that grain

00:21:44every last sec.

00:21:46Don't worry.

00:21:47However much you have,

00:21:48the Zorin Empire

00:21:49will buy all of it.

00:21:50Money won't be a problem.

00:21:52Secretly hoarding grain?

00:21:56Your Majesty,

00:21:57we Ashfords of Fanyang

00:21:58have many mouths to feed.

00:21:59Naturally,

00:21:59we do a bit more than others

00:22:00so we have no choice.

00:22:02We can only store a little more.

00:22:06Yeah,

00:22:06things like this.

00:22:07All the noble houses

00:22:08do this in secret

00:22:09behind closed doors.

00:22:10Keep your face under control.

00:22:11Remember,

00:22:12as an emperor,

00:22:13you never show your emotions.

00:22:14Even if your heart thunders,

00:22:15keep a calm face.

00:22:17Ha ha ha ha.

00:22:19Actually,

00:22:19let me tell you this.

00:22:20If you want to do business

00:22:21with Zorin,

00:22:22grain doesn't make much money.

00:22:24Where's the real money?

00:22:25Silk,

00:22:26uh,

00:22:27tea,

00:22:27salt,

00:22:28and spices.

00:22:29Those generate big money.

00:22:31Ha ha ha ha.

00:22:32Impressive.

00:22:34The silk,

00:22:35salt,

00:22:37those are all

00:22:37really big trades.

00:22:46Lord Benedict.

00:22:47Uh,

00:22:48ha ha ha.

00:22:49High Prince Julian.

00:22:50The honor is all mine.

00:22:54High Prince Julian.

00:22:56An honor,

00:22:56an honor.

00:22:57Ah.

00:22:59Lord Benedict.

00:23:02You know who I am?

00:23:03Of course.

00:23:05You were from Varel.

00:23:06You were the most senior elder,

00:23:07respected and powerful.

00:23:10I've heard much about you.

00:23:11Ha ha ha.

00:23:11Oh my,

00:23:12you are too kind.

00:23:13How could I compare to you?

00:23:14Ha ha ha ha.

00:23:15Your majesty,

00:23:16may I speak with Prince Julian

00:23:17for a moment?

00:23:18I'd like to have a proper chat with him.

00:23:21Ha ha ha.

00:23:24Sure.

00:23:24Go ahead.

00:23:25Uh,

00:23:26after you,

00:23:27Prince.

00:23:27Please.

00:23:28Ha ha ha ha.

00:23:30Prince Julian,

00:23:31the noble houses of Varel

00:23:32would like to trade

00:23:33with the Zoran Empire.

00:23:34But please,

00:23:35keep this between us.

00:23:36After all,

00:23:37quiet deals

00:23:37are the best,

00:23:38am I right?

00:23:40Ha ha ha.

00:23:42Profiting from

00:23:42a kingdom's troubles,

00:23:44is that it?

00:23:44Ha ha ha.

00:23:45You flatter me.

00:23:47Ha ha ha.

00:23:49Prince Julian,

00:23:50let me give a toast to you.

00:23:51First time I've seen one.

00:23:53This is what an actual

00:23:53Zoran prince looks up close.

00:23:55Ha ha ha.

00:23:55You flatter me.

00:24:00Guangling, bro?

00:24:01Hmm.

00:24:01Good wine.

00:24:02Tribute wine from Guangling

00:24:03sent to the Zoran court.

00:24:04Oh my.

00:24:06Prince Julian is truly

00:24:07well-informed and worldly.

00:24:08I trade with Guangling often.

00:24:09We go way back in business.

00:24:10They just sent us a few jars.

00:24:12And we only use them

00:24:13on major occasions.

00:24:14It is truly quite rare.

00:24:16Ha ha ha.

00:24:16No worries.

00:24:17Zoran has a lot

00:24:18and plenty of this stuff

00:24:19to provide.

00:24:20Next time,

00:24:20take as much as you want.

00:24:21I'll send it over.

00:24:22Okay?

00:24:22Then we'll be counting

00:24:23on you, prince.

00:24:24We do hope you look

00:24:25after us in the future.

00:24:27We'd rather stop

00:24:28dealing in grain.

00:24:29Things like Zoran Empire's

00:24:30silk,

00:24:31tea,

00:24:33salt,

00:24:33those kinds of trades.

00:24:35Ha ha ha.

00:24:35No problem at all.

00:24:37How about you all?

00:24:38These past years,

00:24:39the noble houses

00:24:40have made a fortune.

00:24:41So maybe,

00:24:42think about it,

00:24:43lend her majesty

00:24:43a little support.

00:24:45After all,

00:24:45she will be my

00:24:46future wife, right?

00:24:52Support her.

00:24:53For your sake,

00:24:53we will.

00:24:54We have to support her.

00:24:55Support, yeah, support.

00:24:56Well, support her.

00:24:57We will.

00:24:58Lord Benedict.

00:25:00What are you saying?

00:25:06Strike while it's hot.

00:25:07Or lose your chance.

00:25:10Your majesty,

00:25:11your majesty.

00:25:12About what you said

00:25:13last time,

00:25:13the Grand Canal project.

00:25:15You said funds were tight.

00:25:16I still have money.

00:25:18I'm willing to put up

00:25:19three million.

00:25:21Later,

00:25:21I'll have it sent

00:25:22to the palace.

00:25:24Ah,

00:25:25didn't you say

00:25:26that your house was broke?

00:25:27Ha ha ha ha.

00:25:28It's because this canal

00:25:29will benefit generations.

00:25:31No matter how poor I am,

00:25:32I must back your majesty

00:25:33on this, right?

00:25:35Besides,

00:25:35Prince Julian

00:25:36is leading us in business.

00:25:38If we can seal a deal

00:25:39with the Zorian Empire,

00:25:40the canal money is nothing

00:25:42but spare change.

00:25:44Ah, yes, yes, yes, yes.

00:25:45Your majesty,

00:25:46that amount is peanuts.

00:25:47Aren't you sure

00:25:48ten million

00:25:48for the border army's pay?

00:25:50Our Ashford house

00:25:51will cover it for you.

00:25:52My Linkland as well.

00:25:54We'll ship it too.

00:25:55Don't worry about it.

00:26:03Stop staring.

00:26:04You missed it.

00:26:06Still,

00:26:06I can't shake the feeling.

00:26:08The more I look at him,

00:26:09the more he looks like

00:26:10the Greenford Fishmonger.

00:26:12More and more like him.

00:26:14Zorin Envoys,

00:26:15present yourselves!

00:26:22Husband,

00:26:23they'll catch us.

00:26:24Run.

00:26:24Okay.

00:26:26Okay.

00:26:30Oh, chubby.

00:26:33Move, move.

00:26:36Excellent.

00:26:37Everyone else here.

00:26:38Ah, my foster father,

00:26:40Grand Chancellor Vale

00:26:41will be arriving soon.

00:26:42Line up.

00:26:43Welcome him.

00:26:44Ha, ha, ha, ha.

00:26:45Lord Zoo,

00:26:46you've come at the right time.

00:26:48This day is filled with joy upon joy.

00:26:50First, our two nations,

00:26:51Seal and Alliance.

00:26:52Second,

00:26:53Prince Julian is to unite

00:26:54with her majesty

00:26:54in marriage after all.

00:26:56Prince Julian.

00:26:57Huh?

00:26:57which Prince Julian?

00:27:00Prince Julian?

00:27:02In the Zoran Empire,

00:27:03there's no such Prince Julian.

00:27:05Isn't this man

00:27:06the Zoran Empire's

00:27:07Prince Julian?

00:27:11Ah, yeah.

00:27:12He just laid a hand on me.

00:27:14You don't know me?

00:27:17Why would I need to know you, huh?

00:27:20Who are you?

00:27:22Hey,

00:27:23Lucian Zoran

00:27:24comes from the royal blood

00:27:25as well.

00:27:26If Julian Zoran

00:27:27really were a prince,

00:27:28then how come

00:27:29they don't know each other?

00:27:31Hmm,

00:27:32now that is quite sharp.

00:27:33I'm Lucian Zoran,

00:27:35the Emperor's cousin's

00:27:36uncle's aunt.

00:27:38Livin' son-in-law's

00:27:39cousin's son.

00:27:40Yeah,

00:27:40cousin's son.

00:27:42What aunt?

00:27:43What the hell?

00:27:44What cousin?

00:27:45What?

00:27:46Be quiet.

00:27:47Forget it.

00:27:47Your IQ can't handle it.

00:27:49Anyway, bottom line,

00:27:50I'm practically our Emperor's...

00:27:51Oh, Neviu,

00:27:52a fourth-ranked Marquis.

00:27:54In our Imperial clan,

00:27:56we've never seen this guy.

00:27:58Ha ha ha ha.

00:27:59Fine.

00:28:00I won't blame you.

00:28:01Your rank's too low

00:28:02when you're young.

00:28:03You must have knelt

00:28:03too far back

00:28:04so you couldn't see me.

00:28:05You really talk so much crap.

00:28:07If I knelt that far,

00:28:08you wouldn't even

00:28:09deserve to kneel.

00:28:12We've all been fooled by him.

00:28:13He's a fake.

00:28:15That is right.

00:28:16I was wondering before

00:28:17and now it all makes sense.

00:28:19You're the green ford guy,

00:28:20the one who sells fish.

00:28:21Your Majesty,

00:28:21you've been tricked.

00:28:23Exactly.

00:28:23Your Majesty,

00:28:24what on earth is going on?

00:28:26What else could it be?

00:28:27Just like he said,

00:28:28I really am a fish seller.

00:28:30Oh?

00:28:30Huh?

00:28:31Wait.

00:28:32I'm a fish seller.

00:28:34Bullshit.

00:28:35You still did business with us.

00:28:36It was all a lie.

00:28:37Your Majesty,

00:28:38our family

00:28:39has no grade at home

00:28:40about the canal.

00:28:41Please ask someone else.

00:28:43Our family is sound too.

00:28:45Your Majesty,

00:28:46you brought in a fish seller

00:28:47in order to fool us.

00:28:48Hey,

00:28:48this really isn't about her.

00:28:49It was me.

00:28:50For wealth and glory,

00:28:51I pretended to be a Zoran prince

00:28:53and lied to her.

00:28:54And of course,

00:28:55I lied to you too.

00:28:57It wasn't him.

00:28:57Just listen to me.

00:28:58That's it.

00:28:59Um,

00:28:59I still need to sell fish

00:29:00so I'm leaving.

00:29:01Hey,

00:29:02hold on.

00:29:03You dare to lie to your sovereign?

00:29:05Think he can just leave?

00:29:06That's a capital offense.

00:29:09You dare to lie to the sovereign?

00:29:11That's a capital offense.

00:29:13You will surely get beheaded.

00:29:15I chose him to be my husband,

00:29:16even if he's just a fishmonger.

00:29:18Beheaded or not,

00:29:18that's none of your business.

00:29:19Huh?

00:29:20Your Majesty,

00:29:21he lied to you.

00:29:22Why are you defending him now?

00:29:24Your Majesty,

00:29:24have you gone mad?

00:29:25He lied to you

00:29:26and pretended to be a royal prince.

00:29:27If Chancellor Vale

00:29:28finds out about this,

00:29:29a hundred deaths aren't enough.

00:29:30Besides,

00:29:31our alliance with Zorin

00:29:32will fall apart.

00:29:33So let it fall apart.

00:29:36I,

00:29:37the appointed Queen of Varel,

00:29:38will have the

00:29:39final say.

00:29:41Nonsense.

00:29:42The late Emperor

00:29:42gave you the throne.

00:29:43Don't be so reckless

00:29:44with your feelings.

00:29:45The foundation of our kingdom,

00:29:46sooner or later,

00:29:47will be ruined by you, woman.

00:29:48Stop using the late Emperor

00:29:49against me.

00:29:49You,

00:29:50wait.

00:29:51Hey,

00:29:51stop yelling,

00:29:52stop yelling.

00:29:52Your Varel affairs,

00:29:53take it home and argue there.

00:29:54But this man,

00:29:55he pretended to be

00:29:56of the Zorin royal blood.

00:29:58I'm taking him

00:29:59to be executed.

00:30:01Don't you dare.

00:30:03Why wouldn't I dare?

00:30:04What's there to stop me?

00:30:05The Queen of Varel

00:30:06has no say

00:30:07over the people

00:30:08of the Zorin Empire.

00:30:09Besides,

00:30:10the Zorin Empire

00:30:11is the Supreme

00:30:12Celestial Realm.

00:30:13Gods,

00:30:14drag him out

00:30:15and behead him.

00:30:17And Chancellor

00:30:18Vail arrives.

00:30:19Just wait.

00:30:20All of you,

00:30:20wait.

00:30:21Father Chancellor.

00:30:29Father Chancellor.

00:30:32Greetings,

00:30:33Lord Cedric.

00:30:34Lord Cedric,

00:30:34who's that?

00:30:35Lord Cedric.

00:30:35Someone bullied me.

00:30:38The devil,

00:30:39what happened?

00:30:40He,

00:30:41he pretended to be

00:30:42a Zorin royal prince.

00:30:43My prince?

00:30:46I'd like to see

00:30:47who dares to be

00:30:49your majesty.

00:30:51I want to see

00:30:52who dares to do this,

00:30:54your majesty.

00:30:58This,

00:30:59this,

00:30:59what is going on?

00:31:06Get up.

00:31:07Come on up.

00:31:08This is wrong.

00:31:09All wrong.

00:31:12Run, Chancellor.

00:31:13Great Empire envoys

00:31:14don't bow to lesser kings.

00:31:16You're Zorin's envoy.

00:31:17No need to bow

00:31:18such a grand salute.

00:31:19Ah.

00:31:20Ah, Grand Chancellor.

00:31:22This honors Virel.

00:31:23Exactly.

00:31:23When Vail visits

00:31:24other nations,

00:31:25it's their emperors

00:31:26who kneel to him.

00:31:26How come in our

00:31:27kingdom of Virel,

00:31:28it's the other way around?

00:31:29Yeah.

00:31:30Right.

00:31:30Grand Chancellor,

00:31:31her majesty said,

00:31:32get up.

00:31:32A grown man kneeling nonstop.

00:31:34Have you no shame?

00:31:35Get up.

00:31:36Get up.

00:31:37What are you muttering?

00:31:39I was just looking at him.

00:31:40Are you cursing my father?

00:31:41Were you?

00:31:42I wasn't.

00:31:43He's old.

00:31:44Kneeling hurts his knees.

00:31:45You little bastard.

00:31:47A dork.

00:31:48Apologize to her majesty.

00:31:50To Julian.

00:31:52And to Mr. Zorin next to him.

00:31:54I'm apologizing to him.

00:31:56No way.

00:31:57Sorry.

00:31:59That's adorable.

00:32:01Lord Cedric,

00:32:01no need to be so polite.

00:32:02Don't apologize to him.

00:32:03He pretended to be

00:32:04a Zorin high prince.

00:32:05That crime deserves death.

00:32:07Exactly.

00:32:09Grand Chancellor,

00:32:10please let me explain.

00:32:11He didn't mean to impersonate.

00:32:13He is my fiancé.

00:32:15Fiancé?

00:32:16You two are getting married?

00:32:19Chancellor, please.

00:32:20Wonderful news.

00:32:23Getting married?

00:32:25Uh, Chancellor, please.

00:32:26That is wonderful news, huh?

00:32:28Where did you come around?

00:32:29Set a date yet?

00:32:30Location?

00:32:31The date matters.

00:32:32Let me pick a lucky date.

00:32:36You really know Grand Chancellor Bale?

00:32:38This is a little complicated.

00:32:39I will explain it some other day.

00:32:41Um, nothing left for me here.

00:32:42I will get going then.

00:32:43If I don't leave now,

00:32:44I'm afraid they will have my head.

00:32:45Who will bear take your head?

00:32:48Who?

00:32:53What?

00:32:54What?

00:32:58The boy has guts, apparently.

00:33:02Lord Cedric Bale,

00:33:03Is he really a Zoran High Prince?

00:33:05A High Prince?

00:33:10There's no way.

00:33:12Exactly.

00:33:13I said there was no way.

00:33:15Chancellor, father,

00:33:16he is impersonating a High Prince.

00:33:17By law,

00:33:18he's to be beheaded.

00:33:19Insolence!

00:33:20He's more noble than any High Prince.

00:33:22To our Zoran Empire,

00:33:23he is.

00:33:29An otter guest of the throne,

00:33:31huh?

00:33:34Haha,

00:33:35just an old friend.

00:33:37Oh, don't go back

00:33:39for 20 strokes.

00:33:40Come on,

00:33:41not in front of everyone.

00:33:42Don't beat me, please.

00:33:43We can skip the 20 strokes.

00:33:44Oh, great.

00:33:45Make it 40,

00:33:4680,

00:33:471.

00:33:4720 is perfect.

00:33:49Hit harder.

00:33:51He's so adorable.

00:33:54As for you,

00:33:58Grand Chancellor Bale,

00:33:59Mr. Zoran,

00:34:00it really was a misunderstanding.

00:34:02I...

00:34:02Mr. Zoran,

00:34:03hmm?

00:34:03How do you want to deal with him?

00:34:05Oh, deal with him?

00:34:06He's just a kid.

00:34:07He's still wet behind the ears.

00:34:09If we fuss with him,

00:34:10what kind of adults are we?

00:34:11All right.

00:34:12Don't let it happen again.

00:34:13Get up.

00:34:14Thanks, Chancellor.

00:34:14Thanks.

00:34:15Thank you, Mr. Zoran.

00:34:20Mr. Zoran,

00:34:21we have greatly offended you just now.

00:34:23Please be generous with us

00:34:24and do not take such things too hard.

00:34:26Yes, yes.

00:34:27Mr. Zoran,

00:34:27I really failed to recognize you.

00:34:30It's fine, it's fine.

00:34:31We're all on the same side.

00:34:33Look,

00:34:33Chancellor Bale's here too.

00:34:34Just sit with Zoran

00:34:35and talk business properly.

00:34:37Make lots of money

00:34:37after you earn it.

00:34:38Use it to fully support your Empress.

00:34:40That is all.

00:34:41Yes, yes, yes.

00:34:42You have my word,

00:34:43Mr. Zoran.

00:34:44If Her Majesty ever needs anything,

00:34:45we will give our full...

00:34:48Full support.

00:34:50Right, our full support.

00:34:51Definitely.

00:34:53Good.

00:34:54Then there's nothing left for me here.

00:34:56My fish.

00:34:57My fish.

00:34:58My fish is not cooked yet.

00:35:00Okay, I'm off.

00:35:03Fish?

00:35:04Oh, no, no, no, no.

00:35:08I'm late.

00:35:09The banquet's almost over.

00:35:10Damn.

00:35:11Hey.

00:35:13Huh?

00:35:16Father.

00:35:16Son?

00:35:17What are you doing here?

00:35:18Uh...

00:35:19Why can't I be here?

00:35:21That outfit.

00:35:24Where did you steal it from?

00:35:26Hey!

00:35:26What kind of talk is that, huh?

00:35:27You think your father is just a thief?

00:35:29Oh, I remember now.

00:35:31Today's banquet theme is

00:35:32Fish Leaping the Dragon Gate.

00:35:34You're here to deliver fish to the palace.

00:35:36Fine, fine, fine.

00:35:37I'm here to deliver fish, okay?

00:35:39Sure, Father.

00:35:40Your business really is everywhere.

00:35:43Father, after you deliver the fish,

00:35:45don't leave through the main gate.

00:35:46Go out the back gate of the Imperial Garden.

00:35:48Whatever you do,

00:35:49don't let anyone know you're my father.

00:35:51Go, go, go.

00:35:52You ashamed of your own father now?

00:35:53I...

00:35:54I'll smack you!

00:35:55No, no, no.

00:35:55It's not that I'm ashamed.

00:35:57Our kingdom of Virel now rules the realm

00:35:59with loyalty and filial piety.

00:36:00If people find out that I,

00:36:01the top scholar of the realm,

00:36:02have a father who sells fish,

00:36:03how am I supposed to keep my post?

00:36:05Just go, just go, just go.

00:36:06Oh, no.

00:36:08Your Majesty, Grand Chancellor Vale.

00:36:13You know each other?

00:36:17Oh, no.

00:36:19Not at all.

00:36:20Who is he?

00:36:22Brat.

00:36:24If you don't know me,

00:36:26then move.

00:36:29Mrs. Orange,

00:36:30may I walk with you?

00:36:32He'll give us two old friends

00:36:33a chance to catch up.

00:36:35Sure, come.

00:36:35Did you know each other?

00:36:38What's up to you?

00:36:40Nosey.

00:36:41Mrs. Orange, let's go.

00:36:42He is my father!

00:36:48Sijou, please leave.

00:36:49He is my father!

00:36:51Huh?

00:37:00You really are his.

00:37:02No way!

00:37:03Impossible!

00:37:04That's impossible!

00:37:05I don't even know him.

00:37:06Not at all!

00:37:07Father, father,

00:37:08you can't deny me.

00:37:09Father!

00:37:10Father, father, father, father!

00:37:11Father!

00:37:12Father!

00:37:13Father, don't disown me!

00:37:14I was going to take care of you

00:37:15when you get old!

00:37:16Oh my god!

00:37:18Damn it.

00:37:19My surname is Joe, too.

00:37:21I was really short-sighted,

00:37:22or he wouldn't have beaten me to it.

00:37:24Ah.

00:37:25Adrian.

00:37:26Your Majesty.

00:37:28I knew I wasn't wrong about you.

00:37:30With skin that thick,

00:37:31perfect for Royal Guard Bureau Command,

00:37:33best man for the job.

00:37:34Serve me well,

00:37:35and I'll see you live in glory and wealth.

00:37:38Well, I actually-

00:37:38Adrian Zorin!

00:37:39Kneeling and calling him dad impresses me a bit.

00:37:42When you make it big,

00:37:43don't you dare forget your brother here, huh?

00:37:46Heh.

00:37:47You.

00:37:48This Adrian Zorin.

00:37:49Truly a common-born.

00:37:51Just to climb the ranks,

00:37:52he'll call anyone his father.

00:37:53No line you won't cross.

00:37:54From now on,

00:37:55we stay away from him.

00:37:56Sure, sure.

00:37:56What do you mean kneeling and calling him dad?

00:37:57He is my real father.

00:38:00What do you mean,

00:38:01kneel and call him dad?

00:38:02He's my real dad.

00:38:03Yeah, yeah, yeah.

00:38:04He's your real dad.

00:38:05Your actual dad.

00:38:06Adrian Zorin,

00:38:07you lucky dog,

00:38:07you're going places.

00:38:08Bro,

00:38:09you've really mastered the art

00:38:10of finding yourself a dad.

00:38:11I've got to learn from you.

00:38:12I want to make it big soon, too.

00:38:14What are you saying?

00:38:15He really is my dad.

00:38:16Oh, shh.

00:38:17He's my real father.

00:38:20He's my...

00:38:22He really is my dad.

00:38:26You just let Grand Chancellor Vale walk out?

00:38:29What about our alliance with Zorin?

00:38:31I'm still here, aren't I?

00:38:34Report!

00:38:36Your Majesty,

00:38:37urgent border dispatch.

00:38:46Grand Chancellor Vale,

00:38:48where to?

00:38:48Wait for me.

00:38:56Looks like from now on,

00:38:57we won't need to beg the Zorin Empire.

00:38:59Instead,

00:39:00the Zorin Empire will be begging us

00:39:01to ally with them.

00:39:04The Northern Step Raiders

00:39:05killed the Zorin Envoy

00:39:06and are marching south

00:39:07with 100,000 troops.

00:39:09They've taken it.

00:39:10More than 10 cities

00:39:11of the Zorin Empire.

00:39:11What utter crap?

00:39:13You're talking nonsense.

00:39:15Hand it over.

00:39:16When the Northern Raiders

00:39:17defeat the Zorin Empire,

00:39:19you'll all come begging us anyway.

00:39:21By then,

00:39:21we noble houses

00:39:22will bleed you dry.

00:39:24Grand Chancellor!

00:39:25Grand Chancellor!

00:39:26Look how beautiful

00:39:27the moon is tonight.

00:39:28Listen, Your Majesty,

00:39:29come back when you've had your fun.

00:39:31The Zorin Empire

00:39:31can't go on without you.

00:39:33What?

00:39:33Can't beat the Raiders?

00:39:35Do you really think

00:39:36that little of me?

00:39:37You left such a solid

00:39:38foundation behind.

00:39:39One of whom is nothing.

00:39:40Even 10 of him

00:39:41wouldn't be enough.

00:39:43I just want to wipe them out

00:39:44in one go

00:39:44so we don't waste time.

00:39:47I knew you were

00:39:47a devious bastard.

00:39:49So this time,

00:39:50those 100,000 Raiders

00:39:51are never going back.

00:39:52Hmph, obviously.

00:39:55Nice.

00:39:57Nice.

00:39:57With you and the Zorin Empire,

00:39:58I can relax.

00:39:59I'm doing great

00:40:00selling fish here.

00:40:01No worries at all.

00:40:02Nice and easy.

00:40:03Hey.

00:40:03Sure, it is for you.

00:40:05You dumped this mess on me

00:40:06and made me handle it.

00:40:07I've worked till my hair

00:40:07turned white.

00:40:08I mean...

00:40:08Okay, okay, okay.

00:40:10You've had it rough.

00:40:11You've worked hard.

00:40:12So you can put some of it down,

00:40:13have the load over for a bit,

00:40:15let the young take over,

00:40:16give them a chance too,

00:40:17or come sell fish with me.

00:40:19You said I'm such a schemer.

00:40:21How should I sell fish?

00:40:22I'm better at selling people.

00:40:23Don't want to sell fish?

00:40:25Then sell your art.

00:40:26I remember you're great

00:40:27at the Zither.

00:40:28Hmph.

00:40:29My music.

00:40:30How could ordinary folk

00:40:31understand it?

00:40:34Oh, I remember now.

00:40:36Your Zither skills,

00:40:37they're one of a kind.

00:40:38Last time you played

00:40:39on the empty city wall

00:40:40and the 100,000 troops

00:40:42across from us

00:40:42all ran up scared.

00:40:45You damn it.

00:40:50Hey, what are you doing here?

00:40:54Grand Chancellor Vale,

00:40:56Zoran is in trouble.

00:40:57As its ally,

00:40:57the Kingdom of Varel

00:40:58will never just stand by.

00:40:59If you need any supplies

00:41:00or troops,

00:41:01just say the word.

00:41:07You're way too cute.

00:41:09What are you laughing at?

00:41:10Raiders,

00:41:10aren't they about to attack us?

00:41:22Rest easy,

00:41:23your highness,

00:41:24and this war,

00:41:24the northern raiders will

00:41:25lo-

00:41:40to Varel.

00:41:41That way,

00:41:42His Majesty and I

00:41:43will be family.

00:41:44And then I'll outrank

00:41:45His Majesty

00:41:46and I'll have no choice

00:41:48but to call me

00:41:49Uncle!

00:42:00Isn't that just the Queen?

00:42:01She's the only one worthy

00:42:03of Grand Chancellor Vale's

00:42:04eldest son.

00:42:06If we sent her far away

00:42:07to marry to the Zoran Empire,

00:42:09then wouldn't the kingdom of Varel

00:42:11practically be as good as mine?

00:42:14Right in my pocket?

00:42:15Ha ha ha ha!

00:42:16Stop fooling around!

00:42:18I am your elder!

00:42:19When your father passed away,

00:42:21he entrusted you to me

00:42:22so your marriage

00:42:22will naturally be arranged by me.

00:42:25And besides,

00:42:26we're already reaching

00:42:27above our station!

00:42:30What do you mean

00:42:31above my station?

00:42:32I am not becoming

00:42:33some political pawn.

00:42:34I already have a fiancé.

00:42:36What?

00:42:36A fiancé?

00:42:38Who?

00:42:38Where is he?

00:42:39Forget it!

00:42:40Whoever he is,

00:42:41you're going to have

00:42:42to call this marriage off!

00:42:43The match I arranged for you

00:42:45is with the heir

00:42:46of Grand Chancellor Vale

00:42:47in the Zoran Empire!

00:42:48This is a huge chance

00:42:49for the kingdom of Varel!

00:42:51You absolutely

00:42:52cannot miss it!

00:42:53Is Lord Cedric Vale

00:42:54throwing me back to Zoran

00:42:55and provoking me?

00:42:57Huh!

00:42:58Someone's here!

00:43:00Hi Prince!

00:43:01How are your ears

00:43:02even sharper than normal?

00:43:04What sound?

00:43:05I did not hear anything!

00:43:06Oh!

00:43:07It must be your

00:43:08so-called fiancé!

00:43:09I want to see!

00:43:10What's so special

00:43:11about this guy

00:43:12that you are so obsessed

00:43:13with him?

00:43:14Come out!

00:43:14Hi Prince Rowan!

00:43:15I can see you!

00:43:22Hi Prince!

00:43:25Hi Prince!

00:43:31Hey!

00:43:34Yes?

00:43:36Sir!

00:43:36Have you seen

00:43:38a young man around here?

00:43:39Sir?

00:43:40I am that

00:43:41young man.

00:43:46He...

00:43:46He still calls himself

00:43:48young!

00:43:49If he counts as young

00:43:50then I'm definitely

00:43:51young too!

00:43:53Hmph!

00:43:54Sir!

00:43:55Ha ha!

00:43:56Show some respect,

00:43:57will you?

00:43:57There's a difference

00:43:58between young

00:43:58and young!

00:44:01Hi Prince!

00:44:09Tomorrow we are

00:44:10getting married!

00:44:12You...

00:44:12You'd better not be

00:44:13fooling me about this!

00:44:14He looks like...

00:44:15He's pushing 50!

00:44:17And you look

00:44:18well past 80!

00:44:20Hi Prince!

00:44:21Men this age

00:44:22have death!

00:44:22You don't believe me?

00:44:23Then I'll prove it to you!

00:44:27Tomorrow we are

00:44:28getting married!

00:44:30You...

00:44:31You'd better not be

00:44:31fooling me about this!

00:44:33He looks like...

00:44:34He's pushing 50!

00:44:36And you look

00:44:37well past 80!

00:44:38Hi Prince!

00:44:40Men this age

00:44:41You don't believe me?

00:44:42Then I'll prove it to you!

00:44:44Gah!

00:44:46Hey you!

00:44:47Your elder is right there!

00:44:49Stop it!

00:44:50Cut it out!

00:44:51You're making me blush!

00:44:54Uncle Rowan,

00:44:54do you believe me now?

00:44:56He's literally...

00:44:57A cradle robber!

00:44:59Uncle Rowan,

00:45:00I forbid you to talk

00:45:01about my fiancé like that!

00:45:02I remember your wife!

00:45:03Isn't she about my age too?

00:45:05Plus,

00:45:05your hair is already white!

00:45:06You're the real cradle robber here!

00:45:08Hey!

00:45:08Little ancestor!

00:45:10That's no way

00:45:10to talk to your elders!

00:45:11For elders you should say

00:45:13a pure light blossom

00:45:14bent over a bro's bush!

00:45:16Deaf, dumb,

00:45:17and full of himself!

00:45:18He may look like a pig!

00:45:19But deep down

00:45:20he's just a big,

00:45:21dirty,

00:45:22old perv!

00:45:27He's actually just

00:45:28a huge,

00:45:29horny,

00:45:30perv!

00:45:31Right!

00:45:31Well said!

00:45:33Hey,

00:45:34Uncle Rowan,

00:45:34are you okay?

00:45:35Uncle Rowan,

00:45:36you alright?

00:45:37You have truly

00:45:38gone too far!

00:45:42We found out,

00:45:43Your Highness.

00:45:44Her Majesty's fiancé

00:45:45is Julian Zorin,

00:45:46a fishmonger

00:45:46in Greenford County.

00:45:47They say Grand Chancellor Vale

00:45:48loves his fish.

00:45:49That's how they know each other.

00:45:51Damn it!

00:45:51A fishmonger!

00:45:52A fishmonger!

00:45:53Go to the Zorin Empire!

00:45:54Tell Grand Chancellor Vale's

00:45:56eldest son that his fiancé

00:45:57is getting married tomorrow!

00:45:59Tell him to crash the wedding!

00:46:01Oh right!

00:46:02And you'd better invite

00:46:04Grand Chancellor Vale here too!

00:46:06Yes!

00:46:08I'm so pissed!

00:46:09Your Highness,

00:46:11calm down,

00:46:11calm down.

00:46:12Here,

00:46:12drink your med-

00:46:13I'm not drinking that!

00:46:15This Julian Zorin

00:46:17is just a fishmonger,

00:46:18so what if he knows

00:46:18Grand Chancellor Vale?

00:46:20Still thinking about it,

00:46:21Her Majesty

00:46:22is really out of line.

00:46:23Marriage is serious,

00:46:24not some joke.

00:46:27Knows the Chancellor,

00:46:29big deal.

00:46:30But honestly,

00:46:31Her Majesty,

00:46:32she's really gone too far.

00:46:33Marriage is serious,

00:46:34not some game.

00:46:35I know exactly

00:46:36what she is thinking about!

00:46:38She doesn't want to marry

00:46:39into the Grand Chancellor's family,

00:46:41but she also won't marry

00:46:42into the Zorin Empire.

00:46:43Once she goes there,

00:46:44she's an outsider.

00:46:45She's afraid she can't hold

00:46:46onto the throne for herself.

00:46:48Oh!

00:46:50So your Highness means

00:46:51that she chose

00:46:52a fishmonger on purpose.

00:46:53Hmm.

00:46:53So that she can stay

00:46:54on the throne herself.

00:46:55I, that's exactly it!

00:46:57So what do we do?

00:46:59Back then,

00:47:00her father snatched

00:47:00the throne

00:47:01right out of your hands.

00:47:02Now,

00:47:03we finally have a chance.

00:47:05We can't just let it go.

00:47:08Your Highness,

00:47:10you want to be Emperor.

00:47:11And that woman

00:47:12wants to stay Empress too.

00:47:14This marriage alliance

00:47:16was Lord Cedric Vale's idea.

00:47:18I don't believe

00:47:20she is capable

00:47:21of standing up

00:47:22to Tristan Vale's pressure.

00:47:29Sir,

00:47:30your little rhyme

00:47:31was absolutely brilliant.

00:47:32He deserved every word.

00:47:34My dear Regent,

00:47:34you object to our marriage.

00:47:36But it is fine.

00:47:37I've explained everything

00:47:38to Commander Adrian.

00:47:40He will handle it for me.

00:47:42Well, anyway,

00:47:43my wonderful marriage

00:47:45to you

00:47:46is happening.

00:47:47You told Adrian

00:47:48everything about us?

00:47:50Mm-hmm.

00:47:52It is time he knew.

00:47:54I just do not know

00:47:55if he can accept it.

00:47:58What is there to accept?

00:48:00I am just asking him

00:48:01to arrange one marriage

00:48:02for me.

00:48:02He would not dare refuse.

00:48:04Right, right.

00:48:05You are my little tyrant.

00:48:07We all have to obey you.

00:48:09Then go get changed.

00:48:10Okay.

00:48:15My lord.

00:48:16Hey.

00:48:17Why are you still

00:48:18in that outfit?

00:48:19I, I...

00:48:20Lena!

00:48:21Where is your brain?

00:48:22I, I...

00:48:23I was busy

00:48:24changing your clothes.

00:48:25Lena!

00:48:26Where is the private...

00:48:28Huh.

00:48:29You are not trying

00:48:30to run off, are you?

00:48:31I'm not running off.

00:48:33I'm running to the toilet.

00:48:35Don't you lie to me.

00:48:37You have to believe me.

00:48:38I can't hold it.

00:48:42Hmph.

00:48:42Congratulations to you.

00:48:43This way, please.

00:48:44Deputy Minister of Revenue,

00:48:46gift money, $50,000.

00:48:49Prefection,

00:48:50gift money, $80,000.

00:48:52Grand Secretary Zhao,

00:48:54gift money, $100,000.

00:48:56That's a lot of money.

00:48:59Huh, your majesty.

00:49:04Your majesty finally came.

00:49:06I'm telling you.

00:49:07Those noble born officials

00:49:09know you love treasure.

00:49:10And to crush us,

00:49:11the common born officials,

00:49:12every single gift

00:49:13is tensed to thousands.

00:49:14The treasury is about to burst.

00:49:17Hmph.

00:49:18I see.

00:49:19Everything is exactly

00:49:20as I just planned.

00:49:24Hmph.

00:49:24I see.

00:49:26Everything is exactly

00:49:27as I just planned.

00:49:29Brilliant.

00:49:29Absolutely brilliant,

00:49:30your majesty.

00:49:31With you ruling Varel,

00:49:32this realm is truly blessed.

00:49:34My admiration for you

00:49:35is really endless.

00:49:35Don't use those old lines.

00:49:37Your majesty,

00:49:39look,

00:49:39the state treasury

00:49:40is overflowing now.

00:49:41Could we possibly

00:49:42return the gifts

00:49:43from the commoners?

00:49:45Hmph.

00:49:49Of course.

00:49:50I never intended

00:49:51to keep any money

00:49:51from you common born officials.

00:49:53That 1,000 tail fee

00:49:54was just to provoke

00:49:55those noble houses.

00:49:58Savvy, your majesty.

00:49:59Wow,

00:49:59just this one wedding

00:50:00brought in tens

00:50:01of millions of tails.

00:50:02I kind of want you

00:50:02to hold a wedding every day.

00:50:03Adrian,

00:50:04are you stupid?

00:50:06Anyway,

00:50:07back to what I was saying.

00:50:09I,

00:50:10under a wise master's guidance,

00:50:11was told that you

00:50:12are the one I can trust most.

00:50:14Stick with me

00:50:14and do your best

00:50:15from now on.

00:50:16All major affairs of state

00:50:17will be handled by you.

00:50:19Rest assured,

00:50:20your majesty,

00:50:21I will not let you down.

00:50:23The wedding is starting.

00:50:25Please go in first.

00:50:26I got it.

00:50:31Earlier,

00:50:31I misjudged you.

00:50:33But that wise master

00:50:34is actually pretty good.

00:50:36Dad?

00:50:39Dad?

00:50:41What?

00:50:42Dad.

00:50:43Oh, son.

00:50:44Why are you here?

00:50:45Her majesty told you, right?

00:50:47She made you

00:50:47to pledge the wedding.

00:50:48Put you on the spot, huh?

00:50:49Well, no.

00:50:50Her majesty's arrangement

00:50:51makes perfect sense.

00:50:53What she was explaining to me was

00:50:54she let me

00:50:55handle the state affairs.

00:50:56And that's easy.

00:50:58Queen Alara

00:50:58is handing the court

00:50:59over to you?

00:51:00Hmm?

00:51:00Oh.

00:51:02Well,

00:51:02she has no son of her own.

00:51:04Ah,

00:51:04you being in charge

00:51:05is the right choice.

00:51:06Why, of course.

00:51:07Her majesty trusts me the most.

00:51:08Of course she does.

00:51:09We'll be family

00:51:10from now on after all.

00:51:11Of course.

00:51:12What did you just say?

00:51:14Dad,

00:51:14why are you in the palace

00:51:15and what's with the clothes

00:51:16you're wearing?

00:51:18Oh,

00:51:19see,

00:51:19I had a feeling

00:51:19you're going to struggle

00:51:21to understand all of this.

00:51:23It's fine.

00:51:24We've still got plenty of time.

00:51:25Son,

00:51:26we'll ease into it.

00:51:27Okay?

00:51:28Good boy.

00:51:29Excuse me,

00:51:29commander.

00:51:30The wedding is starting.

00:51:31Her majesty wants you.

00:51:32All right.

00:51:36for today,

00:51:37let your beloved son

00:51:52It's Grant, right?

00:51:52Yeah.

00:51:54The wedding today

00:51:54is important to the queen

00:51:56and to your son too,

00:51:57so it has to be perfect.

00:51:59So we must make sure

00:52:01that the day

00:52:01will be splendid.

00:52:02So this kid

00:52:03actually cares that much

00:52:04about his old man.

00:52:06It was all worth it.

00:52:07Oh, son.

00:52:08I didn't expect this.

00:52:10You actually care

00:52:10about me a lot.

00:52:11I just thought that...

00:52:16Bye, son.

00:52:18You've grown up.

00:52:35Oh, thank you

00:52:36for this, my boy.

00:52:40Dad,

00:52:40it is a happy day.

00:52:42No crying.

00:52:43Oh, right, right.

00:52:46I guess I'm just

00:52:48emotional today, huh?

00:52:50Huh?

00:52:51Where are you going?

00:52:52That's her majesty

00:52:53over there.

00:52:54I know that.

00:52:55She...

00:52:56She...

00:52:57Hang on.

00:52:58Don't tell me

00:52:58that you still don't know

00:52:59who her majesty

00:53:00is marrying today.

00:53:01She...

00:53:02She didn't tell you?

00:53:03She didn't tell me.

00:53:06So it...

00:53:07Dad, dad.

00:53:07Let me tell you.

00:53:09About the queen's favorite,

00:53:10his stamina

00:53:11is insanely good.

00:53:12They were going at it

00:53:14for two whole days

00:53:15and nights, you know.

00:53:17They were sparring

00:53:18for two days straight,

00:53:19can you imagine?

00:53:21Two days

00:53:22and two nights.

00:53:23Oh, no big deal.

00:53:26Dad,

00:53:27stop being salty.

00:53:29He's in that position.

00:53:30It's literally his job.

00:53:32Of course

00:53:33he's got more stamina.

00:53:35However,

00:53:36compared to me,

00:53:37he's behind.

00:53:39Quit bragging.

00:53:40In this department,

00:53:42your old man

00:53:42beats you by miles.

00:53:43No way!

00:53:45Dad,

00:53:45you're not young anymore.

00:53:46Why are you still showing off?

00:53:47Watch your mouth.

00:53:48Come on, dad.

00:53:49You know I even thought

00:53:51she liked me.

00:53:52Ha!

00:53:53Total wishful thinking.

00:53:55Wonder which jerk it is.

00:53:56So lucky.

00:53:57Married royalty.

00:53:58Why curse!

00:53:59If I'm that jerk,

00:54:00then what does that make you?

00:54:02Listen,

00:54:02this thing called love,

00:54:03it can't be forced.

00:54:05It's all about fate.

00:54:06Dad!

00:54:07What are you talking about?

00:54:09I don't get it.

00:54:10Son,

00:54:10let me tell you.

00:54:12Mr. Adrian.

00:54:13Adrian Zorin.

00:54:13This Mr. Adrian

00:54:14is actually our father.

00:54:16Why are we still on this?

00:54:18This is my dad,

00:54:19my real dad.

00:54:20Huh?

00:54:20We were just joking before.

00:54:21And this one here

00:54:22is my real eldest son.

00:54:51Congratulations,

00:54:52Your Majesty.

00:54:53You and Mr. Zorin

00:54:54are really such a perfect match.

00:54:56Ha ha ha.

00:54:57Her Majesty

00:54:58is marrying

00:54:59my father?

00:55:00Yeah,

00:55:01we were all confused too.

00:55:02How did they even meet?

00:55:04Let me calm down a bit.

00:55:06You're saying?

00:55:07You already knew?

00:55:08You really didn't know?

00:55:11No wonder.

00:55:12You've offended

00:55:13every common-born official

00:55:14in every noble house

00:55:15in court.

00:55:16But things will be

00:55:17different now.

00:55:19Your Highness.

00:55:20Your Highness.

00:55:22From now on,

00:55:22I'm your little brother.

00:55:23Please look after me.

00:55:25Oh, don't.

00:55:26Your Highness.

00:55:31My Lord.

00:55:32My Lord.

00:55:34Keep your damn voice down.

00:55:36I am not deaf.

00:55:38Has your Master arrived?

00:55:39He's already here.

00:55:41Let's go.

00:55:47Your Master Tristan.

00:55:51You have finally made it.

00:55:53Any later,

00:55:54and your fiancée

00:55:55would be marrying someone else.

00:55:58How dare they?

00:55:59Who dares try to steal

00:56:01my woman?

00:56:02Leave the way.

00:56:03Wait, wait, wait.

00:56:04Hold on.

00:56:04It's just the two of you.

00:56:05Um,

00:56:06Grand Chancellor Vale

00:56:07didn't come?

00:56:08What do you mean, huh?

00:56:10My father lately,

00:56:11his legs are all worn out.

00:56:13He had to take a carriage.

00:56:14So,

00:56:14he'll be a bit late.

00:56:16Besides that,

00:56:17it's just a small matter.

00:56:19I am more than enough.

00:56:21Leave the way.

00:56:22Hold on.

00:56:22Here's the thing.

00:56:23My niece has been quite

00:56:24a handful ever since

00:56:25she was a little girl.

00:56:26I'm afraid

00:56:27if the Grand Chancellor

00:56:28doesn't come,

00:56:29you won't be respected.

00:56:32Tell him.

00:56:33It's fine.

00:56:34Our young Master Tristan here

00:56:35is not only the Grand Chancellor's son.

00:56:37Years ago,

00:56:38he even became the foster son

00:56:39of the Sacred Emperor.

00:56:40His status in the Empire

00:56:41is unmatched.

00:56:42Second to none.

00:56:43No one has ever dared

00:56:44to slight him.

00:56:46Enough?

00:56:47Not enough.

00:56:48Enough, enough, enough.

00:56:49Alright, alright, alright.

00:56:54First, bow to heaven and earth.

00:57:00Second, bow to your parents.

00:57:04Third, bow to each other

00:57:06as husband and wife.

00:57:07Hold on.

00:57:12Who is this

00:57:14that dares to try

00:57:15and steal my girl?

00:57:19Prince Rowan,

00:57:20who are these people?

00:57:21This man is

00:57:22the eldest son

00:57:23of Grand Chancellor Vale

00:57:24of the Zoran Empire,

00:57:25Tristan Vale.

00:57:27I personally handpicked him

00:57:28for you

00:57:28as your fiancée.

00:57:33Look how grown up

00:57:34he is now.

00:57:37Well, well,

00:57:38you bumpkin.

00:57:39Your son's descent.

00:57:40Come here.

00:57:41Let Her Majesty

00:57:42take a look.

00:57:44Hmm.

00:57:46Such a handsome boy.

00:57:49Tell me,

00:57:50what is your name?

00:57:52Tristan Vale.

00:57:54Tristan.

00:57:56Everlasting

00:57:57and unending.

00:57:57Greed in all four seasons.

00:58:00What a great name.

00:58:02How about

00:58:02you recognize me

00:58:03as your godfather?

00:58:10Your son greets

00:58:11his godfather.

00:58:12Good boy.

00:58:14Come here.

00:58:15Sit on my lap.

00:58:42Father.

00:58:45Father.

00:58:47Father?

00:58:50Ha ha ha.

00:58:52Tristan.

00:58:53Blink of an eye

00:58:54and you're all grown up.

00:58:58Father.

00:58:59It's been so many years

00:59:00since I saw you.

00:59:01I really missed you.

00:59:03Ha ha ha.

00:59:04You silly kid.

00:59:05Look.

00:59:07I'm right here now.

00:59:11Husband.

00:59:12This is...

00:59:12Oh.

00:59:14This is my godson,

00:59:15Tristan.

00:59:17Tristan.

00:59:18Hey.

00:59:18This is your godmother,

00:59:20Queen Alara of Varel.

00:59:21Queen Alara of Varel?

00:59:23My father told me

00:59:24the queen was marrying my dad.

00:59:26I didn't think

00:59:27it could be this fast.

00:59:28Father.

00:59:29Mother.

00:59:31Your highness,

00:59:32Tristan.

00:59:32Are you out of your mind?

00:59:33This is the woman

00:59:34that I picked

00:59:34to be your fiancée

00:59:35and you call her godmother?

00:59:37Then this old geezer here

00:59:38is trying to steal your woman

00:59:39and yet you still kneel to him.

00:59:41Are you out of your mind?

00:59:43So this is the one

00:59:44that marriage man

00:59:45she picked for me?

00:59:46That's right.

00:59:47Queen Alara of Varel?

00:59:47I promised your father

00:59:49I'd find you the finest woman

00:59:50in Varel

00:59:51and bring her to you

00:59:52and with your status

00:59:53of course I just had to match you

00:59:54with Queen Alara

00:59:55of Varel.

00:59:56What?

00:59:57Oh.

01:00:01Another deaf ear.

01:00:04No.

01:00:05Why did you suddenly hit me?

01:00:06I meant to hit you.

01:00:08You idiot.

01:00:10My godfather and godmother

01:00:11are madly in love.

01:00:13Everyone at court

01:00:13knows that.

01:00:14Were you intentionally

01:00:15trying to get me killed?

01:00:18Godfather.

01:00:19This is all a big misunderstanding.

01:00:21I had no idea.

01:00:22That deaf, dumb, blind, old fool

01:00:24sent the sufferer me.

01:00:26Picked her

01:00:26as my bride to me.

01:00:28She's my godmother.

01:00:29Otherwise

01:00:29even if I had a hundred lives

01:00:31I wouldn't dare

01:00:32steal her from you.

01:00:33It's fine, Tristan.

01:00:35Since you're here anyway

01:00:36stay and watch the ceremony

01:00:37and then

01:00:38let us dine together.

01:00:40Okay.

01:00:41Wait.

01:00:43Grand Chancellor Vail's eldest son

01:00:45is your godson?

01:00:46Why didn't you tell me

01:00:47that before?

01:00:48Father?

01:00:49Father?

01:00:52You never told me

01:00:53that before, dad.

01:00:55Father?

01:00:57Can you please

01:00:58stop calling me that?

01:00:59Uh, husband.

01:01:01He is your son too.

01:01:03Oh?

01:01:03This one's dry.

01:01:05This one's wet.

01:01:06He's on his own.

01:01:08No way.

01:01:10Her majesty got married

01:01:11and now

01:01:11she suddenly has

01:01:12two grown sons?

01:01:14There's no way.

01:01:15So Adrian

01:01:16really is

01:01:17Lord Zoran's son.

01:01:19Young Master Tristan

01:01:21I am a huge fan

01:01:22of Grand Chancellor Vail.

01:01:24In the future

01:01:24could you maybe

01:01:25introduce me to him?

01:01:27What are you saying?

01:01:29You're our dad's

01:01:30real son?

01:01:31So that makes you

01:01:32my big brother?

01:01:33No, no, no.

01:01:34You are

01:01:34Grand Chancellor Vail's

01:01:36eldest son.

01:01:36You should be

01:01:37the older brother.

01:01:37No, no, no.

01:01:39I'll be the younger one.

01:01:40You'll be the older brother.

01:01:41No, no, no.

01:01:42I'll be the younger one.

01:01:42You're the older one.

01:01:43You're the older brother.

01:01:44You're the older one.

01:01:45You're the older brother.

01:01:46You're the elder.

01:01:47I'm the younger.

01:01:48I'm the younger.

01:01:48You're the elder.

01:01:49You're the elder.

01:01:52Get up.

01:01:53Hey, get up

01:01:53you silly boys.

01:01:54Look at you two

01:01:55making your mother laugh.

01:01:56My stomach hurts

01:01:56from laughing.

01:01:57Tristan.

01:01:58Yes?

01:01:58You're a bit older

01:01:59so be the big brother.

01:02:02Brother Tristan.

01:02:03Big brother.

01:02:03No, no, no.

01:02:04Uh, um,

01:02:05Dad.

01:02:07Grand-Chancellor Veil's eldest son turns out to be your godson. Who are you really?

01:02:13Grand-Chancellor Veil's eldest son turns out to be your godson. Who are you really?

01:02:22Uhhh...

01:02:23Our dad only makes a living by selling fish and nothing else.

01:02:27Because our Veil family really loves fish and your dad's grilled fish is amazing.

01:02:32My father never picks friends by birth, so he told me to take your dad as my godfather. Did I

01:02:37get that right to be godfather?

01:02:39Kid, you really are sharp.

01:02:42That's exactly it.

01:02:46Ha!

01:02:48Ha! So you really are just some stinking fishmonger!

01:02:51I never said it because Grand-Chancellor Veil loves fish so much, but there are still too many bones. Guards,

01:02:55take him!

01:02:58Your Grace, what are you doing? Stop this!

01:03:04Get him!

01:03:05Outrageous! Has the Duke Ruan Varel Manor stopped listening to her majesty?

01:03:09What are you waiting for? Get him now!

01:03:11Huh?

01:03:14What are you waiting for? Get him now!

01:03:29Wow!

01:03:30So pretty!

01:03:32That was awesome!

01:03:36My son, are you okay?

01:03:38Mother, I'm fine.

01:03:44That's good, then.

01:03:45Ah!

01:03:49My son is safe.

01:03:51Thank heavens! With a mother like you, he's truly blessed.

01:03:54As long as our family's at peace, that's enough for me.

01:04:00Young lady, may I have your name?

01:04:03Ah!

01:04:05Hey, uh, uh- uh- uh- uh- uh- she is called...

01:04:09Uh- uh- uh- uh- Elise рас

01:04:10That's right. She's my personal body...

01:04:13Bodyguard!

01:04:14Correct! However, I realize that you need guarding much more! From now on, she's yours!

01:04:22Of course.

01:04:25You're welcome.

01:04:27Hey!

01:04:35Old man.

01:04:37No.

01:04:38You're all on your own.

01:04:42Sir.

01:04:43Right now, it is just you.

01:04:45All by yourself.

01:04:46So what? So what if I'm alone?

01:04:48I'm her majesty's royal uncle.

01:04:50You wouldn't dare kill me, would you?

01:04:56Hurry and get on with the wedding. Just pretend I'm not here.

01:04:59I have business.

01:05:01You're growing.

01:05:02Take care.

01:05:06Bitch. Guards.

01:05:09Drag these people out of here.

01:05:11Godmother. Godmother.

01:05:13Let us go on.

01:05:15Go on.

01:05:16Husband and wife bow to each other.

01:05:30Your grace.

01:05:32Queen Allara is going too far marrying that fishmonger.

01:05:35She even lets him sit on the dragon throne.

01:05:38Even we have never sat on it.

01:05:40I haven't sat on it either.

01:05:43If this madness continues, the legacy our ancestors left us will fall into someone else's hands.

01:05:49If this madness continues, the legacy our ancestors left us will fall into someone else's hands.

01:05:55So what should we do now?

01:05:57Right now, there's only one way.

01:05:59We can rally the whole royal clan and force her majesty to abdicate.

01:06:03And later, I will take the emperor's throne.

01:06:08I've already sent word to several princesses.

01:06:10In a few days, they'll arrive in the capital.

01:06:12That's wonderful, your highness.

01:06:14You mean, I finally have a shot at becoming empress?

01:06:21But that fishmonger is very close to the Grand Chancellor.

01:06:25Will the Zoran Empire cause us trouble?

01:06:27Don't worry about that.

01:06:29The Zoran Empire and we agreed long ago not to meddle in each other's affairs.

01:06:34As for that fishmonger, I have a way to utterly ruin him.

01:06:40What way?

01:06:43Sit, sit, sit.

01:06:51Your highness, what are you saying?

01:06:54You want me to seduce that fishmonger?

01:06:57She's your princess consort.

01:06:58If you want me to be a cuckold, do it yourself.

01:07:02I won't mix with lowborn, not a chance.

01:07:04Such foolish sentiment.

01:07:07Don't you want to be empress?

01:07:10Picture that dragon throne.

01:07:12Picture the masses bowing to you.

01:07:15What's this little sacrifice compared to that?

01:07:19Besides, I don't mind.

01:07:21Hmm?

01:07:24Frontier General Zhao Jixuan slain 1,000 raiders must be rewarded.

01:07:28But raiders are already broken by the Zoran.

01:07:30No spare forces to attack Varel.

01:07:32So, this General Zhao is very likely faking his reports.

01:07:36Even kill innocents for merit.

01:07:37We should, on the surface, promote him to commander of the troops.

01:07:40But in fact, transfer him to another post.

01:07:43Then send the Royal Bureau to secretly investigate.

01:07:45Warning prefecture drought.

01:07:47Thousands of victims are waiting for relief grain.

01:07:49Yet the court's relief grain is seized by local land barons.

01:07:52And they never reach those who are in desperate need of help.

01:07:55Take the grain.

01:07:56For wheat bran, the rich won't touch it.

01:07:58But the victims will eat it.

01:07:59And one unit of grain can get three units of bran.

01:08:02That way they survive and then we send harsh officials,

01:08:04execute land barons and make the heads roll.

01:08:08And once that happens, the grain they hoarded will naturally come spilling back out.

01:08:16Wow!

01:08:17Husband, you are amazing!

01:08:18These days I've come to learn so much from you!

01:08:21Given how small Varel is, this is all nothing big.

01:08:24Remember, as an emperor, you must master the art of rulership.

01:08:27All under heaven may not belong to you, but must be at your disposal.

01:08:34My love, you really are a gift from the heavens to me and to the kingdom of Varel.

01:08:39Hey, stop it!

01:08:40My eyes are-

01:08:42People are watching you.

01:08:44This is so embarrassing.

01:08:48My love, these past few days I've been watching you review memorials,

01:08:52and I want to try it myself.

01:08:53See how much I've learned.

01:08:56Alright.

01:08:57Perfect timing.

01:08:59I'm a bit tired anyway.

01:09:00Then you, don't push too hard.

01:09:05Alright.

01:09:07Lena, take my husband to rest.

01:09:09Yes.

01:09:10Just now, Her Majesty told me to serve you, sir, by serve.

01:09:14Does she mean proper serving?

01:09:28Nice!

01:09:29Third, fourth, sixth prince uncle, what are you all doing here?

01:09:34You summoned you to the capital.

01:09:36Nice.

01:09:38You should give up the throne.

01:09:39And step down.

01:09:44Hmm.

01:09:47Lena, your hands are pretty good.

01:09:50Ha ha!

01:09:50Sir, your muscles are so stiff, my hands are starting to hurt.

01:09:54Ha ha ha!

01:09:55Then go lighter!

01:09:56Ha ha ha ha!

01:09:57Ha!

01:10:00Hey, you there!

01:10:02Hold up!

01:10:03Duchess Rowan.

01:10:05Is Her Majesty in her chambers?

01:10:07Oh, she's in the Heart Nurturing Hall reviewing memorials with Master Julian.

01:10:12Duchess Rowan, is there anything you need?

01:10:16Look, Her Majesty is here!

01:10:19Huh?

01:10:20She's not...

01:10:22Oh, I guess I was seeing things.

01:10:25Go on, get back to work.

01:10:30So good.

01:10:39Master Julian, please enjoy.

01:10:41Oh, thanks.

01:10:45Hm?

01:10:47This wine smells off.

01:10:57So hot.

01:11:00It's so hot.

01:11:02Help me!

01:11:03Lena, help me!

01:11:06Lena!

01:11:08Lena!

01:11:09Help me, Lena!

01:11:11It's so hot.

01:11:12Help me!

01:11:14Is this uncle actually into me?

01:11:16I'm Her Majesty's chief maid.

01:11:18So it is my duty, when Her Majesty is busy, to share a bed in her place.

01:11:24I've liked you for so long, too.

01:11:27Could it be that tonight I'm really going to...

01:11:29Sir!

01:11:31Don't worry!

01:11:32I'll help you!

01:11:47Sir?

01:11:49Come on!

01:11:55There was an aphrodisiac in that wine.

01:11:57Someone was trying to set me up.

01:11:58I...

01:11:59I just played along, to lure her out.

01:12:01Why are you taking your clothes off?

01:12:03I...

01:12:03I thought...

01:12:04Hurry up and get dressed.

01:12:06Then we're not crying, and the one behind this will bite.

01:12:09Sir!

01:12:11You...

01:12:11You're the worst!

01:12:13Lena!

01:12:14Lena!

01:12:18Then wine had an aphrodisiac.

01:12:20Someone was clearly setting me up.

01:12:21I just played along with her trap and lured her out.

01:12:24Why are you taking your clothes off?

01:12:26I...

01:12:26I thought...

01:12:27Hurry and get dressed.

01:12:29Then we're not crying.

01:12:30The one behind this will take the bait.

01:12:32You jerk!

01:12:34You...

01:12:34You're the worst!

01:12:36Lena!

01:12:37Lena!

01:12:44Well, well.

01:12:46That fishmonger fell for it.

01:12:47He lost control and scared all the maids away.

01:12:51Hehehehe.

01:13:00Someone help me!

01:13:11Men really are all the same.

01:13:22You need a hand.

01:13:25Who are you?

01:13:27Who I am...

01:13:29Doesn't matter.

01:13:31What matters is...

01:13:33The Queen's husband...

01:13:35Is insulting the Regent Princess if word gets out...

01:13:39Her Majesty's name will be ruined.

01:13:43Oh...

01:13:45Oh...

01:13:47Easy now.

01:13:55So she is the Regent Princess.

01:13:58That old snake rollin...

01:13:59He really is generous.

01:14:02Help somebody!

01:14:04Anyone there?

01:14:04Help!

01:21:05literally saying our last goodbyes.

01:22:02Zoran Empire's Grand Marshal Gongsun Chi.

01:22:03And over there is the former Khan's brother. After Zoran defeated the raiders, he became the new Khan, Arzabuhai.

01:22:16paying tribute.
