00:00:00Lady Shen of the Murong residence, virtuous and prudent by nature, diligent and gentle,
00:00:05is hereby bestowed the title of First Rank Imperial Noble Lady.
00:00:09I humbly thank your majesty for this grace.
00:00:11Shen Yun King, receive the decree.
00:00:21Murder! Help! Help!
00:00:32Sister.
00:00:34Why?
00:00:34Don't call me sister. You don't deserve to.
00:00:39We're both Shen daughters. Why should you have it better than me?
00:00:43If only three years ago, the one who caught my ball had been Murong On.
00:00:47The bliss you cling to is nothing but an illusion.
00:00:51Shen Yun King, die!
00:01:01If I could have one more chance, I would give up all this glory.
00:01:07What time do you think it is? Still sleeping?
00:01:10You, master, young lords from noble families heard the Shen girls are choosing husbands and have all come to catch
00:01:16the ball.
00:01:17Look at young king, still sleeping. Not an ounce of propriety befitting a young lady.
00:01:22Listen to me. When you and Chao are through, you'd better aim well.
00:01:25Whoever marries best will be the Shen family's pride. Don't you dare disappoint me!
00:01:32Shen Yun King, die!
00:01:32Wasn't I just stabbed by a sword?
00:01:41This is rebirth. I've returned to three years ago, the day of the ball toss ceremony.
00:01:48Miss, it's your turn to throw the ball.
00:01:52Shen Yun King.
00:01:54Sister, why don't I go first?
00:01:56In my past life, Shen Yun King insisted I throw first, deferring again and again.
00:02:01But now, it seems Shen Yun King has also been reborn. Fine, go ahead.
00:02:07To me! To me! To me! To me! To me! Over here! Over here! Miss Shen! Over here! Over here!
00:02:11To me!
00:02:12Get lost! All of you get lost!
00:02:19In this life, the one who marries Murong An will be me.
00:02:29Master, look! The one who caught it is the Murong's second young master.
00:02:33It's him! It's Murong An, second son of Murong.
00:02:36The Murongs are distant kin to royalty. The eldest son, Murong He, just days ago, was
00:02:41appointed deputy minister of justice. If the Shen family could marry into the Murongs,
00:02:45we'd practically be royalty ourselves. Murong An. In this life, I finally changed my fate.
00:02:52In three years, Murong An will rise in rank and title, and I will become a noble imperial lady.
00:02:57Shen Yun Kiao, oh Shen Yun Kiao, you scheme so hard that you don't know you've walked straight into a
00:03:02wolf's den. Wonderful, wonderful! Chowar is truly a daughter I raised myself. She brings honor to the Shen family.
00:03:12You flatter me, father. I only wish to do right by our family. Once I become Lady Murong,
00:03:17I shall watch my every word and deed and bring prosperity to our family. Sister, don't you agree?
00:03:23How fortunate for you, sister. I'm truly happy for you. Shen Yun King, your good fortune has been stolen
00:03:29by me. In this lifetime, I will never let you overshadow me again. Chowar, look! Young Master Murong
00:03:37can hardly take his eyes off you. Isn't that... the Emperor? Your Majesty, dress like this outside.
00:03:53If the Dowager Empress finds out. She nags me daily to pick a concert. I had no choice but to
00:03:58slip out for
00:03:59some peace. It's a good chance to see the life of common folk. Your Majesty has always been a devoted
00:04:03ruler, but dress like this. Shabby as these clothes are. They help me blend in unnoticed. Would you rather
00:04:10I stroll through the streets in my dragon robe? Your Majesty, are you alright? Watch it, you filthy beggar! Hurry!
00:04:22Master Shen's two daughters are tossing the ball today. We'll miss it if we're late. Choosing a husband?
00:04:27Come on, let's go have a look. In my past life, that beggar snatched my ball. After I fled that
00:04:32marriage,
00:04:33I suffered endlessly. How fitting. This time, I'll make you taste the bitterness of being cast aside by
00:04:39your own kin. Go now. Do as I told you. Understood secondness. What are they up to? Now that our
00:04:46Shen family
00:04:46has secured ties with the Murong residence, when Shen Yunqing chooses her husband shortly,
00:04:51she'd better not disappoint. Mother, what kind of thing is that to say? Sister has always been lucky.
00:04:57How could you possibly embarrass father? If you ask me, sister will surely find the finest husband of all.
00:05:02Shen Yunqing, your sister's marriage is as good as settled now. We already have one with power,
00:05:07so you'd better find one with wealth. Only then will you be worthy of being a daughter of Shen Zhao.
00:05:14Miss, it's your turn. Schemes and plots, gold and silver treasures, are all but passing clouds and
00:05:19drifting smoke. In this life, I only wish to find a good and true companion and live out my days
00:05:25in peace.
00:05:26Your Majesty! Miss Shen threw it to me! Get lost!
00:05:43It's him. In my past life, he was the one who caught Shen Yunqing's embroidered ball.
00:05:48Oh my! A perfectly good embroidered ball! Snatched away by a beggar! Sister, what rotten luck you have!
00:05:54Of all people, you picked a beggar! Who knows which deity you've offended? Where does that leave father's
00:05:59reputation? Useless girl! With all those men below, you had to throw it to a beggar!
00:06:04Now everyone in Shangjing is laughing at us! Are you trying to humiliate me? My lord!
00:06:09At least our chow has done well and matched with the Murongs. Otherwise, the Shen family would truly be
00:06:15disgraced today. How would we ever show our faces again? What's done is done. Sister, don't be too upset.
00:06:21Though this beggar is low-born, at least his face is passable. I just feel sorry for you,
00:06:26sister. Spoiled since childhood, now marrying a beggar. Marriage is a woman's greatest path in life!
00:06:32You chose a beggar! From now on, you'll sleep under the sky! The Shens can't help you!
00:06:37Oh my! This is going to be quite a show! The Shen family's eldest actually marrying a beggar?
00:06:42Everyone's watching! If she refuses, the Shens broke their word! Who would ever deal with the
00:06:46Shen family again? Exactly! Let's see what the Shens do! Hey, where are you going? Stop her! Don't let
00:06:52her run off! My lord, I finally found you! My heavens! Why is the embroidered ball in your hands?
00:07:00Perhaps you should just toss it away! Outside the palace, we are ordinary commoners.
00:07:05We mustn't break the customs of the people. Besides, dressed as shabbily as I am,
00:07:10she certainly won't want to marry me. I... Sister, in such a rush to meet your perfect match?
00:07:28You threw the embroidered ball yourself! You chose the man yourself! Don't tell me you're having regrets!
00:07:33You wretched girl! Look at the beggar you drew in! If he becomes our son-in-law,
00:07:37you'd be trampling our entire family's honor beneath your feet! In my past life,
00:07:41I suffered at the Murong residence, reduced to a pawn for the Shens to court the powerful.
00:07:47Looking back now, I'd rather marry a beggar and live in peace. The rule of the ball toss is that
00:07:52whoever catches it is chosen, even if you refuse now! I am willing to marry him! I am willing to
00:07:58marry him!
00:08:06My name is Shen Yun-King. What's yours? I... My name is Qi Yu.
00:08:14Today, with all of you as witnesses, I, Shen Yun-King, am willing to marry Qi Yu as his wife!
00:08:24You truly want to marry me? Of course! You already caught my embroidered ball! Would
00:08:30you go back on the word? No, it's not that! It's just that I have nothing! If you marry me,
00:08:36you'll have no proper home, barely enough to eat! Would you still agree? We both have two hands and two
00:08:42feet! What we want, we can build for ourselves! If we work hard in the future and find honest work,
00:08:47making a living won't be hard. Palace people would resort to anything for the smallest gain.
00:08:51She's unlike anyone I've met, someone so easily content. A filthy beggar, and she actually treats
00:08:56him like a treasure! Shen Yun-King, you'd better think this through. Marrying a beggar means ruining
00:09:02your own future. A future isn't built on status alone, but on character and virtue. Qi Yu may be
00:09:08dressed plainly, but he seems approachable, well-mannered, and may well make a fine match. You...
00:09:14The rules of the embroidered ball toss have already been set. Even if Master Shen wishes to go back on
00:09:19his word now, it's too late. That's right. If he refuses, not only would it break our customs,
00:09:25it would tarnish the Shen name. Since you've chosen to marry down, don't ever blame the Shen family for it.
00:09:33The Shen family's future glory will have nothing to do with you. I understand, Father. All right,
00:09:38everyone, move along. Always crowding around for a spectacle, honestly. The show's over. Time to go
00:09:44home. Young Master Murong! Young Master Murong, please wait! Young Master Murong, would you kindly
00:09:51come to the Shen residence to discuss the wedding? Let's go. Right this way, please. Sister, don't say I
00:10:00didn't warn you. Marrying a beggar for the rest of your life, you'll forever be beneath me. Perhaps you
00:10:06should worry about yourself first. Life at the Murong residence won't be as easy as you imagine.
00:10:19You... Make way, make way!
00:10:37Oh heavens, are you all right? Are you hurt anywhere? I'm fine. See? I'm perfectly all right. I'm so
00:10:44sorry. I'm truly sorry. It wasn't on purpose. Be careful next time. Will do! To marry someone so
00:10:49gentle and kind-hearted, that is my good fortune in this life. In three days, come to the Shen residence
00:10:55for me. Back at the palace, Mother would force me to choose a consort. So why not? Very well. I'll
00:11:02be there for sure.
00:11:06The second Miss Shen is wed today. Her dowry includes gold inlaid gemstones, phoenix hairpins,
00:11:14a pair, one EC pearl flower crown, a pair of jade bracelets, 20 bolts of shoe brocade,
00:11:21and three land deeds for silk shops in the east of the city.
00:11:26The second Miss Shen's dowry is worth a fortune, yet the eldest Miss Shen got nothing at all. Both
00:11:32daughters of the Shen family, what a stark difference. Haven't you heard? The second Miss
00:11:36Shen is marrying the Murong residence's second young master, while the eldest Miss Shen is
00:11:40marrying a beggar. How could they be treated the same? If my sister truly marries a beggar,
00:11:45she'll toil for the rest of her life. I wonder if she'll adapt. The groom is here!
00:11:53Worthy of the Murong's second young master, what a grand procession. The Murong residence holds
00:11:58immense power. Once the second Miss Shen marries in, she'll live in endless luxury. But Shen
00:12:03Yun-Yung King, marrying the beggar. That'll be quite the spectacle. Here we come!
00:12:14Greetings, father and mother. Rise, rise, son-in-law. This bridal procession of yours
00:12:20is a rare spectacle in all of Shang-Jing. That shower is so valued by you as an honor for
00:12:26our Shen family.
00:12:27Young master Murong has arrived, yet there's no sign of the other groom. If I were him,
00:12:31I'd bury myself underground and never show my face. Sister, the auspicious hour is nearly past.
00:12:37Your husband still hasn't come for you. Perhaps he doesn't intend to come at all.
00:12:42He's here! He's here! The groom is here!
00:12:48The groom finally came. What I promised you, I will fulfill.
00:13:00I'm terribly sorry for arriving late. What on earth are you wearing? Before all these guests,
00:13:05you're making me lose face! Today is her wedding day after all, and this beggar shows up dressed like
00:13:11this to claim his bride. How can my sister not find this humiliating? Marriage is a lifelong matter. What
00:13:17matters is sincerity, not appearances. The one eye Shen Yun-King have chosen will never be swayed by
00:13:23others' words. Haven't you embarrassed yourself enough? Don't be angry, master. Once Yun-King leaves,
00:13:28she'll have nothing to do with the Shen family. The auspicious hour has come. The bride may board the
00:13:34sedans. Minister Zhang has arrived. You're merged! Shut your mouth if you want to live.
00:13:47What an honor to have Minister Zhang grace us with his presence. Pardon us. Heaven rewards the devoted.
00:13:53It truly does. Congratulations, Master Shen. Thank you, thank you. Minister Zhang, please come inside.
00:14:00After you, bridegroom. The groom goes first. After you, please.
00:14:07Don't tell me you walked here on foot. On a wedding day, no bride has ever walked to her
00:14:12husband's home. Well, today is certainly an eye-opener. Indeed, unlike my husband.
00:14:26My lady, let's go home.
00:14:31My lady, let's go home.
00:14:48Shen Yun-King, once I'm an imperial noble lady, you'll regret this.
00:15:04So, this is where you live.
00:15:19This is the place you found for me.
00:15:21Your Majesty, didn't you say it had to match your current status?
00:15:25This is far too run down. Is this even livable? I was afraid you'd blow your cover.
00:15:34I'm sorry you have to put up with this, staying in such a dump. How about we?
00:15:38Give it a good cleaning. It's actually quite spacious. It'll be cozy once we settle in. From now on, this
00:15:44is our home.
00:15:44Home. Home. Our home. The eldest Shen daughter is so remarkably virtuous, far better than all those noble ladies the
00:15:52Dowager Empress chose for me.
00:15:56Shen Yun-King, I don't have much to offer right now. This jade pendant was given to me by my
00:16:03father before he passed. Now I'm giving it to you.
00:16:08Shen Yun-King, you're giving me something so precious?
00:16:15Yes, rest assured. I'll keep it safe.
00:16:19His Majesty gave away his personal jade pendant. Does he truly love Shen Yun-King?
00:16:24Shen Yun-King?

00:42:44How touching. Even at a time like this, such devoted lovers you are. Since your bond runs so deep, I
00:42:52might as well send you off together. Die.
00:43:02The Dowager Empress arrives!
00:43:13Who dares harm my son?
00:43:16Greetings, Dowager Empress.
00:43:20He's truly the Emperor?
00:43:27The physician! Fetch the physician! Quickly!
00:43:30Your Majesty, this servant deserves death!
00:43:33Silence!
00:43:37Shen Yun-King.
00:43:38Ren Lu.
00:43:39Escort Yun-King back to the palace for treatment. If anything happens to Shen Yun-King, I will hold you
00:43:44responsible.
00:43:45Yes, Your Majesty.
00:43:54My son, your wound.
00:44:00Your Majesty!
00:44:02Impossible!
00:44:03How can he be the Emperor? I had it all figured out. Given a second life, and I chose wrong
00:44:09again.
00:44:12Spare me, Your Majesty! Please! Your Majesty!
00:44:15Please forgive me. I was blind and foolish and hurt you by mistake.
00:44:20Your Majesty, everyone in the Shen residence has been arrested.
00:44:24What? You called him?
00:44:27What? You called him?
00:44:27He was just a beggar. How can he be the Emperor?
00:44:29Mercy, Your Majesty! I know my wrongs. When you were tormenting Shen Yun-King, did you ever imagine this day
00:44:35would come?
00:44:37Hear my decree.
00:44:39Shen Zhao and his entire household are to be executed on the spot.
00:44:44My lady!
00:44:47Morong-Hee, as a court official, abused his authority and aided in tyranny.
00:44:54Immediately, he was stripped of his post as Deputy Minister of Justice, and imprisoned
00:44:59alongside Morong An.
00:45:01Hold Dowager Empress!
00:45:03I have committed a grave offense, but it was all the Shen family's doing.
00:45:08For my father's sake, I beg you, grant this guilty servant a chance to atone.
00:45:13Yes, yes, exactly!
00:45:14We beg the Dowager Empress for mercy!
00:45:16My son, though the two Morong family sons are foolish, they were not the masterminds.
00:45:21Spare them this once and show leniency.
00:45:25But those two, as you wish, Mother.
00:45:35Shen Yun King.
00:45:37Shi Yu, are you alright?
00:45:38Are you hurt?
00:45:39I'm fine.
00:45:40Lie back down.
00:45:41The physician said you shouldn't move with your wound.
00:45:43Physician?
00:45:45Why are we in the palace?
00:45:47The Dowager Empress saved us.
00:45:49The Dowager Empress?
00:45:54The Dowager Empress.
00:45:55You wish to make Shen Yun King your Empress?
00:45:57I will never allow it.
00:45:58I have already pledged myself to Shen Yun King.
00:46:01Whether you consent or not, I will overcome any obstacle to make her my Empress.
00:46:06You...
00:46:08Very well.
00:46:09I will find an opportunity to test Shen Yun King.
00:46:13If she passes my test, I will no longer stand in the way of your marriage.
00:46:18Thank you, Mother.
00:46:19Until then, you must not reveal your identity to Shen Yun King.
00:46:24Otherwise, I have plenty of ways to punish her.
00:46:28I shall remember.
00:46:30She left the palace to pray and passed by the Shen Estate.
00:46:33That's how she saved us.
00:46:34What about my father?
00:46:37The Dowager Empress ordered your sister and Murongan to receive 50 lashes.
00:46:41Murongan had long frequented pleasure houses so his body couldn't endure it and he fainted.
00:46:45She had no choice but to confine him.
00:46:47Your sister was sent to hard labor to perform hard labor.
00:46:50As for your parents...
00:46:51What happened to them?
00:46:54They were exiled.
00:46:58Exiled.
00:47:02From now on, I'll protect you.
00:47:06I got a guard post from her.
00:47:07She placed you at the Bureau of Servants.
00:47:10From now on, we'll both serve in the palace.
00:47:13Good.
00:47:13Now that we both have positions, after three to five years of service,
00:47:17we'll leave the palace together and live an ordinary life.
00:47:19All right.
00:47:23Shen Yunjin.
00:47:24I hope you can forgive me.
00:47:30This is the Bureau of Palace Servants.
00:47:34So where do you guards stay?
00:47:36We patrol all over the place.
00:47:39No fixed quarters.
00:47:42Don't worry.
00:47:43Whenever I'm free, I'll come visit you.
00:47:46All right.
00:47:55All right.
00:47:57Visiting the Bureau without any advance notice?
00:48:01This is the new maid, Shen Yunqing.
00:48:04In the days ahead, I must trouble Steward Lin to look after her.
00:48:09This is the Bureau's steward, Steward Lin.
00:48:12Go to her if you need anything.
00:48:14Greetings, Steward Lin.
00:48:15I see.
00:48:16Rest assured, I'll take good care of Shen Yunqing.
00:48:20She's being far too gracious.
00:48:21I'm here to work.
00:48:22Why does it feel like I'm here to be a mistress?
00:48:25Perhaps she's just a kind person.
00:48:27That's good, then.
00:48:28You won't be bullied at the Bureau.
00:48:30Shen Yunqing, please follow me.
00:48:43Wash all of these clean.
00:48:45We both serve in the Bureau.
00:48:47I have no reason to do your laundry.
00:48:49How dare you even ask?
00:48:50You took my duties, so now I scrub chamber pots.
00:48:53Some people, who knows what tricks they use to get into the Bureau.
00:48:56Since Steward Lin favors you so much, giving you all the easy work.
00:49:08Give it back!
00:49:11A Dragon Jade pendant.
00:49:13Only His Majesty made to wear such a thing.
00:49:15Speak!
00:49:16Where did you steal this?
00:49:17What, His Majesty?
00:49:18Give me back my pendant now!
00:49:21Go notify Steward Lin at once.
00:49:23Yes.
00:49:42I didn't mean to!
00:49:44Seize her now!
00:49:48All of you, stop!
00:49:53Your Majesty.
00:49:55This Bureau is such a humble place.
00:49:58You have never set foot here before.
00:50:00I fear it may offend your sacred person.
00:50:02Allow this old servant to announce your arrival first.
00:50:05No need.
00:50:07I disguise myself as a senior attendant.
00:50:10Precisely to observe Shen Yunqing as she truly is.
00:50:14If she were to learn my identity, it would only complicate matters.
00:50:19Palace rules are strict.
00:50:20I was only gone for a brief moment, and you've already grown so brazen.
00:50:24What do you take this place for?
00:50:26Madam, she did it all.
00:50:30Shen Yunqing stole His Majesty's pendant.
00:50:32I caught her, and fearing exposure, she actually tried to harm me.
00:50:36Theft is the gravest sin here than sticky fingers.
00:50:39Madam Lin, you must punish her severely.
00:50:41Madam, it's not what they say.
00:50:43Enough!
00:50:48Hand over the Jade Pendant.
00:50:51The Jade Pendant is my own.
00:50:53I said hand it over.
00:51:02A dragon emblazoned Jade Pendant.
00:51:04It really is His Majesty's.
00:51:11Please judge fairly, Madam.
00:51:13I truly did not know it belonged to His Majesty.
00:51:16Madam, please don't be deceived by her honeyed words.
00:51:18She dared to steal His Majesty's Jade Pendant.
00:51:21Who knows what other audacious things she might do in the future.
00:51:25Palace rules clearly state that for theft of goods worth more than one chian,
00:51:29the left foot shall be severed and branding administered.
00:51:32I will thoroughly investigate this matter.
00:51:35Until the truth is established, the Jade Pendant shall remain in my custody.
00:51:39If you are truly innocent, I will see that justice is done.
00:51:44Rise.
00:51:45Thank you, Madam.
00:51:48This is Madam Wang, the new steward.
00:51:50She will be working alongside me to manage the bureau.
00:51:53Madam Wang.
00:51:54All of you behave yourselves.
00:51:56Anyone caught shirking or scheming will be punished according to palace rules.
00:52:01Yes, Madam.
00:52:02The matter of you bullying your fellow servants is unresolved.
00:52:05Scrubbing the chamber pots is now your duty.
00:52:09You don't eat until you're done.
00:52:13Yes, Madam.
00:52:17And here I thought you had some real talent.
00:52:20So cunning and seductive.
00:52:22So good at seducing people.
00:52:23Yet you still got punished.
00:52:27Let's see if you dare act so arrogant around us again.
00:52:46There isn't that better.
00:52:51Your Majesty, Miss Zhao has come to the palace again today.
00:52:54Would you like to?
00:52:56No.
00:52:57Send her back where she came from.
00:52:59But…
00:52:59And you, I'm going to see Shen Yun-King.
00:53:01If you keep following, won't that give me away?
00:53:04I'll take my leave at once.
00:53:07All done.
00:53:08Well done, Shen Yun-King.
00:53:10Shen Yun-King.
00:53:12Ji Yu, what are you doing here?
00:53:15Stuart Lin, how could she make you do this?
00:53:17I'll talk to her.
00:53:18It's just chamber pots.
00:53:19It's not a big deal.
00:53:20Don't bother the matrons.
00:53:22All right.
00:53:24By the way, the jade pendant you gave me,
00:53:26what's the story behind it?
00:53:28Why does everyone say it belongs to His Majesty?
00:53:32Well…
00:53:34My father once earned the title of top scholar.
00:53:37To inspire future scholars,
00:53:40His Majesty bestowed the pendant upon him.
00:53:42That's how it came to our family.
00:53:43I see.
00:53:44No wonder they keep mentioning His Majesty.
00:53:46I thought you were lying to me.
00:53:49Who's there?
00:53:50It's Matron Wang.
00:53:51Go quickly.
00:53:52Tomorrow I'll be on duty under His Majesty.
00:53:54I'll find time to come see you then.
00:53:56All right.
00:54:00Matrons, I finished washing all the chamber pots.
00:54:03Finished?
00:54:03Then sweep the entire back courtyard from end to end.
00:54:10Yes ma'am.
00:54:15Finally done sweeping.
00:54:23How dare you throw away my things.
00:54:27Granny Wang gave the order herself.
00:54:30Deliver her medicine at dawn tomorrow.
00:54:32She also said the medicine must be brewed with morning dew.
00:54:35Stay outside tonight to collect it.
00:54:37Morning dew?
00:54:38That's right.
00:54:39Morning dew.
00:54:40You all heard it.
00:54:41I'm not making this up.
00:54:43Why does Granny Wang single me out?
00:54:47After that jade pendant theft, Granny Wang didn't punish you.
00:54:50That was merciful enough.
00:54:52All she's asking is for you to collect morning dew.
00:54:54Be grateful.
00:54:56I never stole that jade pendant.
00:54:57Stop making false accusations.
00:55:00Not stolen?
00:55:01Then what?
00:55:01His Majesty personally gave it to you?
00:55:04I...
00:55:05Forget it.
00:55:06Why do I even bother explaining to you people?
00:55:08Who said you could go in?
00:55:10The night dew is heavy and cold.
00:55:11I'm getting my own blanket.
00:55:13You can't stop me.
00:55:14Such nerve.
00:55:15This is the palace.
00:55:16No yours or mine.
00:55:17Don't think steward Lynn has your back.
00:55:19You can do as you please.
00:55:20Move.
00:55:25Shen Yun King.
00:55:28Shen Yun King.
00:55:30Are you alright?
00:55:31This?
00:55:32Who did this?
00:55:34Why is Eunuch Yuan Lu here?
00:55:35Could he be?
00:55:37You're all dead.
00:55:39Your Majesty.
00:55:41You're the Emperor?
00:55:47Insolent fool.
00:55:48This is the inner palace.
00:55:50Who permitted you to enter?
00:55:51You must not reveal your identity to Shen Yun King.
00:55:56I meant no offense.
00:55:57I only saw someone was hurt and rushed forward to help.
00:56:00He's not the Emperor.
00:56:01Then why does Eunuch Yuan Lu show him such deference?
00:56:04Eunuch Yuan Lu, what on earth is going on?
00:56:09You've all misunderstood.
00:56:11This young god bears some resemblance to his majesty.
00:56:13So he was summoned to the palace for questioning.
00:56:16He's new and doesn't know the rules.
00:56:17Don't you know this bureau is not to be entered freely?
00:56:20Forgive me, madam.
00:56:21It was all my fault.
00:56:22I shouldn't have quarreled with Yauchi and caused this young officer concern.
00:56:27Since you know you were wrong, off with you now.
00:56:30Thank you, madam.
00:56:35Your Majesty.
00:56:36Your Majesty, just now I truly had no other choice.
00:56:41Go keep watch.
00:56:43Don't let the Dowager blame Yun King.
00:56:46Yes, sire.
00:56:48Eunuch Yuan Lu.
00:56:54Edward Lin.
00:56:56Is there anything else, Eunuch Yuan Lu?
00:56:59No, no, nothing.
00:57:04As for you...
00:57:08I wonder who's backing her and what their status really is.
00:57:12Consorting with a guard is a grave offense, yet Madam Wang only made her kneel.
00:57:18Now that you mention it, you're right.
00:57:20Even the matter of the stolen jade pendant was hushed up.
00:57:26Tell me, if the Emperor found out someone stole his jade pendant, what would he do to her?
00:57:40I still worry the Dowager will blame Shen Yun King.
00:57:45Then perhaps I should.
00:57:48Your Majesty, a maid seeks audience outside the study.
00:58:25You stupid fool, what did you put in that bowl?
00:58:28I... I got this recipe from a Taoist.
00:58:30He said that after consuming it, it would be beautiful.
00:58:32I would have to be able to put the skin on the table.
00:58:35I only meant well for you, Auntie Wang.
00:58:38I was simply foolish for a moment.
00:58:40An item of unknown origin?
00:58:41And you dared serve it to someone?
00:58:43What's going on inside that head of yours?
00:58:46Please forgive me, I won't do it again!
00:58:52Luckily, it was just an allergy and not life-threatening.
00:58:55But the rash on her face won't fade quickly.
00:58:57Guards! Drag her away and sell her off to a slave trader!
00:59:02Please spare me, Auntie!
00:59:11Auntie Wang, perhaps you could let me try.
00:59:14You?
00:59:14I've studied medical texts and can prepare remedies.
00:59:17Perhaps I can ease the rash on your face.
00:59:20If my method works, please spare Jing Shang's life.
00:59:29His Majesty hasn't paid any attention to me in ages.
00:59:32Yet I hear he has time to visit the Bureau of Palace Servants.
00:59:36Who in the Bureau of Palace Servants could have His Majesty so preoccupied?
00:59:42It's not me!
00:59:44Even if I had the nerve of a lion, I wouldn't dare seduce His Majesty!
00:59:50Now I remember!
00:59:51Yes! Someone at the Bureau has that kind of nerve!
00:59:56Shen Yun King, if the noble consort thinks you're the one seducing His Majesty,
01:00:01let's see how arrogant you'll be then.
01:00:06You need only wait six hours, and the rash on your face will disappear.
01:00:12It does look a bit unsightly, but the rash does seem to be fading away.
01:00:18You do have some skill.
01:00:20Thank you for the kind words.
01:00:32If it weren't for you today, you can hit me or scold me, I'll take it all.
01:00:38Why would I scold you?
01:00:41You're willing to forgive me?
01:00:43You're not so bad, really.
01:00:45Just a bit sharp-tongued, that's all.
01:00:50Your Majesty, I believe that.
01:00:53His Majesty's resolve to make her Empress is no mere impulse.
01:00:58Genuine King truly possesses remarkable qualities.
01:01:09It's her!
01:01:19You're the one who seduced His Majesty.
01:01:25With that seductive fox face of hers, no wonder she can't behave herself.
01:01:29It's one thing for His Majesty to find a bride outside, but since when?
01:01:34Through the likes of you, you lowly wretches dare to harbor such impudent thoughts?
01:01:44When did Shen Yun King ever seduce His Majesty?
01:01:50Jingxian, have you forgotten how treated you before?
01:01:55Shen Yun King never once provoked me of her own accord.
01:01:58It was you who picked fights on purpose.
01:02:04Jingxian!
01:02:07Do you have any idea who I am, that you dare act so insolent before me?
01:02:11The one standing before you is the daughter of Chancellor Zhao.
01:02:15Miss Zhao is the Dowager Empress's pick for Empath.
01:02:18You brainless fool! How dare you provoke Miss Zhao!
01:02:23As the Chancellor's daughter, Miss Zhao must be reasonable.
01:02:27I never seduced His Majesty, I truly haven't.
01:02:29Please my lady, have mercy on us.
01:02:32Let you go?
01:02:34According to Yaochi, not only did you try to seduce His Majesty,
01:02:37you didn't even spare the guards.
01:02:39I did no such thing!
01:02:42Flash her face for me!
01:02:49Stop!
01:02:51The Bureau of Palace Servants is part of the Inner Palace, since when is it your place to interfere?
01:02:58A mere old servant woman, dares to raise her voice before me?
01:03:03You, how dare you!
01:03:05Miss Zhao, the palace!
01:03:07Answers to His Majesty and the Dowager Empress.
01:03:09Punishing servants yourself is against the rules.
01:03:12I beg Miss Zhao to show mercy.
01:03:16His Majesty and I grew up together.
01:03:18I am the only candidate for Empress.
01:03:20This inner palace will be mine sooner or later.
01:03:23Dealing with a lowly maid is nothing worth mentioning.
01:03:26Preposterous!
01:03:28You're nothing but a servant of lowly birth.
01:03:30If I don't teach you a lesson, you'll never know your place.
01:03:33Hold this wretch down for me as well.
01:03:35Yochi, how dare you!
01:03:39I never imagined you could be so vicious!
01:03:42I was truly blind!
01:03:53A disfigured old servant.
01:03:56Daring to use the title of Dowager Empress.
01:03:59You must have a death gift.
01:04:01You still refuse to admit your wrongdoing!
01:04:03What wrong have I committed?
01:04:06Blame your own lowly birth.
01:04:09You could only enter the palace as slaves.
01:04:12Defying your masters is asking for death.
01:04:15You, bring me my whip!
01:04:19As the steward of the Bureau of Palace Servants,
01:04:21you allowed a servant to seduce His Majesty.
01:04:24Leading others astray, your crime is unforgivable.
01:04:35Early next month marks the annual Spring Festival Banquet.
01:04:38This year, all nobles will be attending.
01:04:40Prepare well for it.
01:04:42Rest assured, sire!
01:04:43I shall spare no effort!
01:04:46Insolent wretch!
01:04:47Disturbing His Majesty!
01:04:48Do you know your crime?
01:04:50Your Majesty!
01:04:51Your Majesty!
01:04:53Greetings, Your Majesty!
01:04:55Please come to the Bureau of Palace Servants and save Shen Yun-King!
01:04:59What did you say?
01:05:00Shen Yun-King is in danger!
01:05:09What are you doing?
01:05:11Ms. Zhao came here for me.
01:05:14I can't let you be punished for no reason at all.
01:05:20How touching!
01:05:21Since you so enjoy playing the martyr, I shall grant your wish.
01:05:25Enough, Zhao Warner!
01:05:26I warn you not to push this too far or else.
01:05:29You dare call yourself that?
01:05:30A slave who doesn't know her place.
01:05:32Today I shall teach you some manners on behalf of the Dowager Empress.
01:05:36Stop!
01:05:43The Dowager Empress was merely testing you all, yet you are going to be the Dowager Empress.
01:05:44Do you know who it is you were about to strike?
01:05:47Greetings, Dowager Empress.
01:05:48Greetings, Dowager Empress.
01:05:50How could you possibly be the Dowager Empress?
01:05:57Greetings, Dowager Empress.
01:06:02How is this possible?
01:06:04The Dowager Empress was merely testing you all, yet you, so arrogant and presumptuous, dare to offend
01:06:10the Dowager Empress herself!
01:06:12Your Majesty, I didn't mean to do it!
01:06:14Please intercede with the Dowager Empress on my behalf!
01:06:17Your Majesty!
01:06:22I believe this matter is of great importance.
01:06:24It concerns the Dowager's dignity.
01:06:26Please judge this carefully.
01:06:29I...
01:06:37Exactly!
01:06:39You...
01:06:39Your Majesty!
01:06:41You still won't admit fault?
01:06:43I know my error.
01:06:44Dowager Empress, I should not have spoken so in your presence.
01:06:47Those words were never my true intent.
01:06:49It was all this servant's fault.
01:06:51She told me a palace maid was seducing His Majesty, and I lost my composure.
01:06:56Miss Zhao, it was clearly you who told me to...
01:06:58Silence!
01:06:59If you wretched slave hadn't misled me, how would I have made such a grave offense?
01:07:05Dowager Empress, I am innocent!
01:07:07Innocent of what?
01:07:08You were the one who incited us to bully Shen Yun King!
01:07:11You spread that rumor about her, that was you too!
01:07:14You, Jing Xiang, how dare you betray me!
01:07:16Enough!
01:07:20The palace maid Yauchi has spread malicious rumors and violated palace rules.
01:07:25She is to be taken away and sold at once.
01:07:28Have mercy now at your Empress!
01:07:30I am truly innocent!
01:07:31Shen Yun King, I saw you with that guard flirting with each other!
01:07:34I never made anything up!
01:07:40So, you are the Shen family's eldest.
01:07:55Shen Yun King, the dowager didn't punish you?
01:08:01Of course not.
01:08:02She discussed the Spring Banquet with me, asking if I had any thoughts on it.
01:08:08That's a relief.
01:08:13What is it?
01:08:16Shen Yun King has passed the test.
01:08:21So then, may I tell her the truth?
01:08:23And about making her Empress?
01:08:25There's no rush for that.
01:08:27The Spring Festival Banquet is next month.
01:08:29The Ministry can't handle both at once.
01:08:31They simply don't have the manpower.
01:08:33Besides, this is all too sudden.
01:08:35I worry that the other ministers will object.
01:08:42I suggest we let Shen Yun King organize the Spring Banquet.
01:08:48If she can manage the banquet well, it will not only prove her capability,
01:08:53but also justify crowning her Empress.
01:08:56The dowager wants you to run the Spring Festival Banquet.
01:08:59What?
01:09:00Me?
01:09:02But I don't know how to do any of this.
01:09:04Don't worry.
01:09:05With your talent, you'll manage just fine.
01:09:08I'll help you behind the scenes.
01:09:17Move it all of you!
01:09:18Anyone caught slacking off, my whip doesn't have eyes!
01:09:26Useless!
01:09:27Still think you're some young lady?
01:09:29In the discipline office, nobody gets to slack off on my watch!
01:09:40Shen Yun King, this is all your fault!
01:09:43Get in!
01:09:44Don't touch me!
01:09:45I'm the Prime Minister's daughter!
01:09:46You'd better show me some respect!
01:09:48The Prime Minister's daughter!
01:09:51In my past life, Murong An rose at the Spring Banquet by the Dowager Empress.
01:09:55If I can escape this wretched place and find a way to get Murong An to the Spring Banquet,
01:10:00I can turn it all around.
01:10:05What a dump!
01:10:06They actually expect me to wash clothes myself!
01:10:08Miss Zhao, I have a favor to ask!
01:10:11A favor for me?
01:10:12Why should I help you?
01:10:13If I weren't down on my luck, you wouldn't even be worthy of speaking to me!
01:10:21My sister Shen Yun King is the reason I'm locked up here!
01:10:25If you're willing to help me escape, I'll repay you with everything I have!
01:10:30Shen Yun King.
01:10:33Not bad.
01:10:35The banquet arrangements are clear and well organized.
01:10:38One can tell real thought when into this.
01:10:43Entrusting the banquet to you is quite a fine choice indeed.
01:10:47Your Majesty, something terrible!
01:10:50The Discipline Office is on fire!
01:10:51What?
01:10:54Shen Yun King, come with me to the Discipline Office!
01:10:59Shen Yun King, come with me!
01:11:08Sir, what's the situation inside?
01:11:10The fire burned the whole rear yard.
01:11:12Nearly half the people didn't make it out.
01:11:14Could it be that Jao Wanner has already...
01:11:19Thalajur Empress?
01:11:21Greetings, Your Majesty!
01:11:22Greetings, Your Majesty!
01:11:24Good!
01:11:25You're alive!
01:11:26At least I can answer to your father!
01:11:29I've learned my lesson!
01:11:30Please lift my punishment!
01:11:32This place, I truly cannot bear another day!
01:11:35Very well.
01:11:35With your temperament, the Discipline Office serves no purpose anyway.
01:11:41I also wish to ask Your Majesty to grant Shen Yun Kiao a reward.
01:11:45I survived this ordeal only because Shen Yun Kiao risked her life to save Yun.
01:11:49I recall that Shen Yun Kiao and Shen Yun King are sisters.
01:11:53How do you think I should reward her?
01:11:55Yun Tao is indeed my sister, but the two of us have seldom been close.
01:11:58We share no deep bond.
01:12:00As for Yun Kiao's affairs, it is not my place to interfere.
01:12:02I leave it entirely to Your Majesty.
01:12:04Your Majesty, I believe that Shen Yun Kiao is kind-hearted.
01:12:08Perhaps there has been some misunderstanding.
01:12:11Very well.
01:12:13She has been in the Discipline Office long enough and seems to have changed somewhat.
01:12:17Then let her leave the Discipline Office for now.
01:12:20Thank you for your grace, Your Majesty.
01:12:23Jao Wanner, though I have lifted your punishment, I never said you were free to go.
01:12:28Next month, the marriage alliance with Liao shall fall to you.
01:12:33What? A diplomatic marriage?
01:12:35You refuse.
01:12:36Or would you remain in the Discipline Office?
01:12:39No.
01:12:40I obey, Your Majesty.
01:12:44Return to the palace.
01:12:45Your Majesty, may I have a word with my sister?
01:12:52Shen Yun King, you ruined our parents and the Murongs.
01:12:56You made me suffer endlessly through every torment.
01:12:58I will settle this score with you in time.
01:13:01It's only been a moment and you've already forgotten your pain.
01:13:04If you hadn't insisted on crossing me, how would you have ended up like this?
01:13:09I thought you'd truly become a Phoenix, but you're still a pheasant.
01:13:13It seems the Emperor never gave you a proper title.
01:13:16What do you mean by that?
01:13:21Drop the axe, weren't you with His Majesty?
01:13:23Shen Yun King, Shen Yun King, the Dowager Empress wants you gone.
01:13:28She has more orders for you.
01:13:34Shen Yun King, let's see how long you can stay so smug.
01:13:37Brother, please just let me go out.
01:13:40I'm cooped up here every day, one of these days.
01:13:43I'll lose my mind from it.
01:13:44You dare complain?
01:13:45If you and Shen Yun Kiao hadn't been so foolish,
01:13:48we wouldn't have provoked His Majesty and I wouldn't have lost my position.
01:13:52If you ask me, it's all that wretch Yun Kiao's fault.
01:13:55Husband.
01:13:57How are you back?
01:13:58The Dowager Empress pardoned my punishment.
01:14:00I don't have to stay there anymore.
01:14:02You've brought this ruin upon us and you dare come back?
01:14:05Brother, the one who wronged you is Shen Yun King.
01:14:07Instead of blaming each other, why not think of a way to deal with her?
01:14:11Shen Yun King?
01:14:12She's probably already a consort by now.
01:14:14How can we fight her?
01:14:15I saw her at that office.
01:14:17We spoke face to face.
01:14:18Shen Yun King is just a lowly palace maid now.
01:14:21She's no threat at all.
01:14:23A palace maid?
01:14:24Did His Majesty marry her on a whim?
01:14:27If His Majesty truly cared for her, how could he bear to make her a servant?
01:14:31I've already thought it through.
01:14:32The Spring Banquet is early next month.
01:14:34All the nobles and aristocrats will be invited to the palace to attend.
01:14:38This is our only chance.
01:14:40The Spring Banquet?
01:14:40Our Moorong family is on the guest list too.
01:14:43Then can I attend too?
01:14:46All the banquet guests are high-ranking nobles.
01:14:49We can't afford any mistakes.
01:14:51Oh, stop worrying.
01:14:52You've checked every detail several times already.
01:14:55Nothing will go wrong.
01:14:56I hope so.
01:15:07Delicious.
01:15:08Have more if you like it.
01:15:10Plenty more in the palace.
01:15:11Only because our seats are so remote this time that no one patrols here.
01:15:14Otherwise we could never meet so openly like this.
01:15:18Shen Yun King.
01:15:22Once the banquet is over, I have something to tell you.
01:15:27All right.
01:15:27I'll be right here waiting.
01:15:35Husband, look!
01:15:40Shen Yun King!
01:15:42She's actually with a guard!
01:15:47You're on duty today.
01:15:48Hurry back now.
01:15:52Remember to wait for me.
01:16:00Dear sister, simply can't go anywhere without a man by her side.
01:16:06Shen Yun King, forgotten your brother-in-law?
01:16:09What, barely cast aside by his majesty and already tangled up with a guard?
01:16:15This is the Imperial Palace, not your Shen residence that indulges you.
01:16:19Your every move will reach his majesty and the Dowager Empress.
01:16:23You've only just been released.
01:16:25Have you learned nothing?
01:16:27My husband and I are invited to the palace banquet, honored guests.
01:16:31You are nothing but a servant.
01:16:33If pleased, they may reward you.
01:16:35If they are displeased, even if you die, no one would care.
01:16:39What are you doing?
01:16:46Shen Yun Kiao, haven't you done enough to ruin me?
01:16:51As long as you suffer, I'm happy.
01:16:55You escaped that incident at the Shen residence only because you were lucky.
01:16:59But now, no one is here to protect you.
01:17:03Greetings, your majesty, the Dowager Empress.
01:17:14Greetings, Dowager Empress.
01:17:19Shen Yun King, you've worked hard organizing the palace banquet.
01:17:27It is my duty. I don't find it hard at all.
01:17:30Dowager Empress, I have something to say.
01:17:34Speak.
01:17:34I wish to report Shen Yun King for an affair with a guard.
01:17:37I saw it with my own eyes.
01:17:39Shen Yun King and the guard were all over each other.
01:17:41When caught, she tried to conceal it.
01:17:43If she dares to be so bold in broad daylight, imagine what she does behind closed doors.
01:17:50I did have contact with the guard, but it was not the sordid affair they claim.
01:17:54Before we entered the palace, we had already shared our feelings.
01:17:58In the palace, we rarely met.
01:18:00If you had a clear conscience, why rush to leave the moment you saw us?
01:18:04Such an affair means death.
01:18:06You may execute me, but I beg you to show mercy and spare the young guard's life.
01:18:10It was I who asked to meet him.
01:18:16Ultimately, neither of you is innocent.
01:18:20I implore the Dowager Empress to seize the guard and execute it alongside her.
01:18:25Please execute them both to uphold palace decorum.
01:18:32There is indeed a strict rule in the palace that maids are forbidden from associating with guards.
01:18:38But Shen Yun King organized the banquet with great devotion.
01:18:43Her merits offset her faults.
01:18:45No.
01:18:45Her punishment shall be waived.
01:18:51Shen Yun King, you may go attend to your duties.
01:18:55Yes.
01:19:04She escaped punishment yet again.
01:19:06How is Shen Yun King always so lucky?
01:19:09First, the Emperor shielded her and now the Dowager protects her.
01:19:12They even gave her the Spring Banquet to organize.
01:19:14Since Shen Yun King is in charge of the Spring Banquet, that makes things easy.
01:19:18Your Majesty, the banquet is over there.
01:19:20Where are you going?
01:19:21The banquet is about to begin.
01:19:23Please change and head over now.
01:19:24I've thought it over.
01:19:26And I feel that I should tell the truth to Yun King sooner.
01:19:29Go fetch Shen Yun King at once and tell her to meet me there.
01:19:32What is it?
01:19:37You've done a great service this time.
01:19:39The nobles all praised the Spring Banquet.
01:19:41Even the Dowager looked quite pleased.
01:19:44That's good to hear.
01:19:46Someone awaits you in the rear yard.
01:19:48Hurry.
01:19:49Who?
01:19:53Assassin!
01:19:53Protect the Dowager Empress!
01:19:56What happened in there?
01:19:58An assassin disguised as a dancer attacked the Empress.
01:20:01Young Master Morong took the blade for her.
01:20:04The assassin escaped.
01:20:05What?
01:20:08Take her away.
01:20:11What are you doing?
01:20:12The Empress was attacked.
01:20:14We have orders to arrest Shen Yun King.
01:20:16We're questioning at the court.
01:20:27I, Shen Yun King, grieve the Prime Minister.
01:20:29Prime Minister Zhao, she was in charge of the banquet.
01:20:32The palace is heavily guarded.
01:20:34No one could get in easily.
01:20:36Shen Yun King must have colluded with the assassin.
01:20:38The one who sent Warner away is also named Shen Yun King.
01:20:42How dare you!
01:20:43You planted an assassin at the banquet to kill the Empress.
01:20:47What were you scheming?
01:20:48Everyone I arranged was verified.
01:20:50As for how an assassin got in, I truly do not know.
01:20:53Please grant me time to investigate.
01:20:55Of course you don't know.
01:20:56Before the banquet, you met secretly with a guard, whispering intimately.
01:21:00You had no time to care for the Empress's safety.
01:21:03What?
01:21:03There's more to this?
01:21:04I can testify.
01:21:05That guard is at the rights office now.
01:21:07Guards!
01:21:07Bring that guard here!
01:21:08I will get to the bottom of this!
01:21:18Is it him?
01:21:20Yes, that's him.
01:21:28Lord Chancellor, they've been brought in.
01:21:33T.U.
01:21:34Shen Yun King, do you know your crime?
01:21:36The assassin.
01:21:37I truly know nothing of it.
01:21:39Lord Chancellor, please grant me some time.
01:21:41I will uncover the truth.
01:21:42The palace banquet was arranged by your own hand.
01:21:45You want to wash your hands of it now?
01:21:47Too late.
01:21:48Outside assassins used the banquet dance as cover to strike.
01:21:51This was clearly premeditated.
01:21:54Whether or not she sent the assassin?
01:21:56The dowager's safety was at risk.
01:21:58She must answer for it.
01:21:59I didn't.
01:22:00Lord Chancellor, please punish these two.
01:22:03Lord Chancellor, please judge fairly.
01:22:05The banquet assassin is all my fault.
01:22:07Please do not implicate anyone else.
01:22:09If my husband had not reacted in time and shielded the dowager,
01:22:13even ten heads of yours wouldn't suffice.
01:22:15I...
01:22:15Enough.
01:22:16Mei Shen Yun King had an illicit affair defiling palace order.
01:22:20She endangered the dowager.
01:22:22Both shall be executed immediately.
01:22:24Lord Chancellor, please withdraw this order.
01:22:28Ji Yu.
01:22:30I'm sorry for dragging you into this.
01:22:34Shen Yun King, let's see how you get out of this one.
01:22:42I'd like to see who dares lay a hand on her.
01:22:45You're...
01:22:46Your Majesty.
01:22:47Long live Your Majesty.
01:22:49Long live, long live.
01:22:55How is this possible?
01:22:57Shen Yun King, I'm sorry.
01:22:59I deceived you.
01:23:01Greetings, Your Majesty.
01:23:03Long live Your Majesty.
01:23:05Shen Yun King, I...
01:23:07Your Majesty, what is going on?
01:23:09How dare you all?
01:23:10Believing one side of the story and rushing to judgment,
01:23:12condemning an innocent person to death.
01:23:14Such conduct.
01:23:15How dare you call this governance?
01:23:18If I'm not mistaken, seizing me and bringing me here was your idea.
01:23:23Seeing the dowager in danger, I acted out of urgency.
01:23:26I didn't know the one with my sister was Your Majesty.
01:23:29Please forgive me, Your Majesty.
01:23:30I would never dare deceive Your Majesty.
01:23:32My loyalty to Your Majesty, Heaven and Earth can attest.
01:23:36You have apposed Shen Yun King at every turn.
01:23:38Had I not been here today, you would have had your way.
01:23:41No.
01:23:42I never intended to harm my sister.
01:23:44I was truly worried about the dowager's health and lost my composure.
01:23:47Chancellor Zhao, you know this.
01:23:49I truly did not.
01:23:50Enough, Yun Kiao.
01:23:51Say no more.
01:23:53Your Majesty, what matters most right now is resolving the assassination attempt.
01:23:57Please render judgment and punish Shen Yun King.
01:24:00The truth has not yet been established.
01:24:02How can you be sure she did this?
01:24:04As the person in charge of the spring festival banquet,
01:24:07she let assassins into the palace and attacked the dowager empress.
01:24:11Her crime warrants death.
01:24:13Please order immediately her imprisonment and thorough interrogation.
01:24:17The Chancellor speaks rightly.
01:24:18Had my husband not been present today, the dowager empress might not have survived.
01:24:23Your Majesty, my safety matters little.
01:24:25But if Shen Yun King goes unpunished, should such an incident occur again,
01:24:28who will safeguard the palace?
01:24:30I implore Your Majesty to deal with Shen Yun King.
01:24:33How dare you, Mu Rong'an.
01:24:35You presume to force my hand?
01:24:38If I can produce evidence proving Shen Yun King's innocence,
01:24:42what punishment shall you face?
01:24:44Impossible.
01:24:49Impossible.
01:24:50Zhao Xun, I am speaking to you.
01:24:55If I have falsely accused Shen Yun King today,
01:24:59I am willing to suffer the same punishment as she.
01:25:02Very well.
01:25:03Guards, bring them in.
01:25:10Your Majesty is wise.
01:25:11By Your Majesty's command,
01:25:13this servant planted informants in advance and apprehended the assassin in time.
01:25:17Mercy, Your Majesty.
01:25:18The attack on the empress dowager was ordered by Shen Yun Kiao, the two of them.
01:25:22I was truly forced into it.
01:25:24What?
01:25:25It's over.
01:25:30Zhao Xun, do not think I am unaware you did this for your daughter,
01:25:34Zhao Wanner.
01:25:35Since you wanted Shen Yun King dead, I will not let you live either.
01:25:38Guards, take him.
01:25:39Your Majesty, I have served Great Shield with devotion for decades.
01:25:43How can Your Majesty treat me like this?
01:25:45And all of you, believing one-sided claims and rushing to judge, harming the innocent.
01:25:50With such conduct, how dare you call yourselves officials?
01:25:53Your Majesty, we acknowledge our fault.
01:25:56Three months' salary shall be docked.
01:25:58Should this happen again, I will show no leniency.
01:26:00We thank Your Majesty for his mercy.
01:26:02As for you two...
01:26:04Mercy, Your Majesty.
01:26:05It was all Shen Yun Kiao.
01:26:06It was her wretched idea.
01:26:08You're lying.
01:26:08Your Majesty, I was merely jealous of my sister, Young King.
01:26:11I never meant to harm the Empress Dowager.
01:26:14The assassination was Murong An's idea.
01:26:16Even him taking a blade for her was staged by himself.
01:26:19Wretched woman, how dare you betray me?
01:26:21Enough!
01:26:23Murong An and Shen Yun Kiao, as masterminds, shall be executed immediately.
01:26:27The seamstress shall be held at court to await sentencing.
01:26:31Mercy, Your Majesty! Mercy, Your Majesty! Mercy!
01:26:35Wait!
01:26:44Your Majesty, I wish to ask you to spare Shen Yun Kiao from death.
01:26:48Why is that?
01:26:49She tried to harm me time and again.
01:26:52If she were simply put to death, she'd be getting off easy.
01:26:55Shen Yun King!
01:26:56How dare you do this to me!
01:26:58I hate you!
01:26:58If not for you, I should be the one enjoying all of this!
01:27:03You're wrong.
01:27:03It wasn't I who made you this way.
01:27:05It was yourself.
01:27:06The fate you face now is entirely of your own making.
01:27:10Very well!
01:27:11Shen Yun Kiao shall be made a lowly slave, banished to Southern Prefecture,
01:27:15never to set foot in the capital again.
01:27:17No!
01:27:18I won't go!
01:27:19I refuse to go to Southern Prefecture!
01:27:20I want to be an Imperial Noble Lady!
01:27:22I want to be the distinguished woman in the world!
01:27:27Young King!
01:27:29So what is Your Majesty's true name?
01:27:32Hong Yu!
01:27:34Hong Yu!
01:27:35Now that the guilty have been punished,
01:27:37His Majesty and Her Ladyship have finally found their happy union!
01:27:41My Lady!
01:27:44From this day forward, I shall make you my Empress!
01:28:06The Empress Investiture Ceremony now begins!
01:28:09The Empress Investiture Ceremony now begins!
01:28:23Long live Your Majesty!
01:28:27The Empress Investiture Ceremony now begins!
01:28:28Rise up!
01:28:31Shen Yun King!
01:28:32From this day on, you are my wife!
01:28:34I intend to abolish the Imperial Harem!
01:28:36The Inner Palace shall have but one mistress,
01:28:39and that is you, my Empress!
01:28:40Shen Yun King!
01:28:41What a due date right now!
01:28:41That is aк thing,���adasine!
01:28:43So we are now made to save to him!
01:28:43We are gonna be the very firstborn
01:28:44with 몰웅!!
01:28:44So what can we do now?
