I Married a Beggar, He's the Emperor! HD 🌼 Drama DramaRush
Transcript
00:00:00Lady Shen of the Murong residence, virtuous and prudent by nature, diligent and gentle, is hereby bestowed the title of
00:00:07first rank imperial noble lady.
00:00:09I humbly thank your majesty for this grace.
00:00:12Shen 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.
00:01:32Wasn'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.
00:02:38The eldest son, Murong He just days ago was appointed Deputy Minister of Justice.
00:02:43If the Shen family could marry into the Murongs, we'd practically be royalty ourselves.
00:02:48Murong An.
00:02:49In 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
00:03:03wolf's den.
00:03:06Wonderful! Wonderful!
00:03:08Chowar 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.
00:03:15Once I become Lady Murong, I shall watch my every word and deed and bring prosperity to our family.
00:03:21Sister, don't you agree?
00:03:23How fortunate for you, sister. I'm truly happy for you.
00:03:26Shen Yun King, your good fortune has been stolen by me.
00:03:30In this lifetime, I will never let you overshadow me again.
00:03:35Chowar, look! Young Master Murong can hardly take his eyes off you.
00:03:48Isn't that...
00:03:49The Emperor?
00:03:51Your Majesty, dress like this outside. If the Dowager Empress finds out...
00:03:56She nags me daily to pick a console. I had no choice but to slip out for some peace. It's
00:04:00a good chance to see the life of common folk.
00:04:02Your Majesty has always been a devoted ruler, but dress like this. Shabby as these clothes are. They help me
00:04:08blend in unnoticed. Would you rather I stroll through the streets in my dragon robe?
00:04:19Your Majesty, are you alright?
00:04:21Watch it, you filthy beggar!
00:04:22Hurry! Master Shen's two daughters are tossing the ball today.
00:04:25We'll miss it if we're late. Choosing a husband? Come on, let's go have a look.
00:04:29In my past life, that beggar snatched my ball. After I fled that marriage, I suffered endlessly.
00:04:35How fitting! This time, I'll make you taste the bitterness of being cast aside by your own kin.
00:04:41Go now. Do as I told you. Understood secondness.
00:04:44What are they up to?
00:04:45Now that our Shen family has secured ties with the Murong residence, when Shen Yunqing chooses her husband shortly, she'd
00:04:52better not disappoint.
00:04:53Mother, what kind of thing is that to say? Sister has always been lucky. How could she possibly embarrass father?
00:04:59If you ask me, sister will surely find the finest husband of all.
00:05:03Shen Yunqing, your sister's marriage is as good as settled now. We already have one with power, so you'd better
00:05:08find one with wealth. Only then will you be worthy of being a daughter of Shen Zhao.
00:05:14Miss, it's your turn.
00:05:15Schemes and plots, gold and silver treasures, are all but passing clouds and drifting smoke. In this life, I only
00:05:22wish to find a good and true companion and live out my days in peace.
00:05:26Your majesty!
00:05:27Miss Shen threw it to me!
00:05:30Get lost!
00:05:43It's him. In my past life, he was the one who caught Shen Yunqiao's embroidered ball.
00:05:48Oh my! A perfectly good embroidered ball! Snatched away by a beggar!
00:05:53Sister, what rotten luck you have! Of all people, you picked a beggar! Who knows which deity you've offended? Where
00:05:58does that leave father's reputation?
00:06:01Useless girl! With all those men below, you had to throw it to a beggar! Now everyone in Shangjing is
00:06:06laughing at us! Are you trying to humiliate me?
00:06:08My lord! At least our chow has done well and matched with the Murongs. Otherwise, the Shen family would truly
00:06:15be disgraced today. How would we ever show our faces again?
00:06:18What's done is done. Sister, don't be too upset. Though this beggar is lowborn, at least his face is passable.
00:06:24I just feel sorry for you, sister. Spoiled since childhood. Now marrying a beggar.
00:06:30Marriage is a woman's greatest path in life. You chose a beggar. From now on, you'll sleep under the sky.
00:06:36The 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? Everyone's watching!
00:06:43If she refuses, the Shens broke their word! Who would ever deal with the Shen family again?
00:06:47Exactly! Let's see what the Shens do!
00:06:50Hey, where are you going? Stop her! Don't let her run off!
00:06:53My lord, I finally found you!
00:06:57My heavens! Why is the embroidered ball in your hands? Perhaps you should just toss it away!
00:07:02Outside the palace, we are ordinary commoners. We mustn't break the customs of the people. Besides, dressed as shabbily as
00:07:09I am, she certainly won't want to marry me.
00:07:24I...
00:07:25Sister, in such a rush to meet your perfect match? You threw the embroidered ball yourself! You chose the man
00:07:31yourself! 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, you'd be trampling
00:07:38our entire family's honor beneath your feet!
00:07:41In my past life, I suffered at the Murong residence, reduced to a pawn for the Shens to court the
00:07:45powerful. Looking back now, I'd rather marry a beggar and live in peace.
00:07:50The rule of the ball toss is that whoever catches it is chosen, even if you refuse now.
00:07:55I am willing to marry him! I am willing to marry him!
00:08:06My name is Shen Yun-King. What's yours?
00:08:09I... 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?
00:08:26Of course. You already caught my embroidered ball. Would you go back on your word?
00:08:32No, it's not that. It's just that I have nothing. If you marry me, you'll have no proper home, barely
00:08:38enough to eat. Would you still agree?
00:08:40We both have two hands and two feet. What we want, we can build for ourselves. If we work hard
00:08:45in the future and find honest work, making a living won't be hard.
00:08:48Palace people would resort to anything for the smallest gain. She's unlike anyone I've met. Someone so easily content.
00:08:55A filthy beggar! And she actually treats him like a treasure!
00:08:58Shen Yun-King, you'd better think this through. Marrying a beggar means ruining your own future.
00:09:03A future isn't built on status alone, but on character and virtue. Qi Yu may be dressed plainly, but he
00:09:09seems approachable, well-mannered, and may well make a fine match.
00:09:13You, the rules of the embroidered ball toss have already been set. Even if Master Shen wishes to go back
00:09:19on his word now, it's too late.
00:09:21That's right. If he refuses, not only would it break our customs, it would tarnish the Shen name.
00:09:28Since you've chosen to marry down, don't ever blame the Shen family for it. The Shen family's future glory will
00:09:34have nothing to do with you.
00:09:36I understand, Father. All right, everyone, move along. Always crowding around for a spectacle. Honestly.
00:09:43The show's over. Time to go home.
00:09:46Young Master Murong! Young Master Murong, please wait!
00:09:48Young Master Murong, would you kindly come to the Shen residence to discuss the wedding?
00:09:56Let's go. Right this way, please.
00:09:59Sister, don't say I didn't warn you. Marrying a beggar for the rest of your life, you'll forever be beneath
00:10:05me.
00:10:05Perhaps you should worry about yourself first. Life at the Murong residence won't be as easy as you imagine.
00:10:19You-
00:10:20Make way! Make way!
00:10:21Make way!
00:10:37Oh heavens, are you all right? Are you hurt anywhere?
00:10:41I'm fine. See? I'm perfectly all right.
00:10:43I'm so sorry. I'm truly sorry.
00:10:45It wasn't on purpose. Be careful next time.
00:10:47Will do!
00:10:48To marry someone so gentle and kind-hearted, that is my good fortune in this life.
00:10:52In three days, come to the Shen residence for me.
00:10:55Back at the palace, Mother would force me to choose a consort. So why not?
00:11:00Very well. I'll be there for sure.
00:11:06The second Miss Shen is wed today. Her dowry includes gold inlaid gemstones, phoenix hairpins, a pair, one EC pearl
00:11:16flower crown, a pair of jade bracelets, twenty bolts of shoe brocade, and three land deeds for silk shops in
00:11:24the east of the city.
00:11:27The second Miss Shen's dowry is worth a fortune, yet the eldest Miss Shen got nothing at all. Both daughters
00:11:32of the Shen family want a stark difference. Haven't you heard? The second Miss Shen is marrying the Murong residence's
00:11:38second young master, while the eldest Miss Shen is marrying a beggar. How could they be treated the same?
00:11:43If my sister truly marries a beggar, she'll toil for the rest of her life. I wonder if she'll adapt.
00:11:49The groom is here!
00:11:53Worthy of the Murong's second young master, what a grand procession. The Murong residence holds immense power. Once the second
00:12:00Miss Shen marries in, she'll live in endless luxury.
00:12:03But Shen Yun-King, marrying the beggar, that'll be quite the spectacle.
00:12:07Here he comes!
00:12:14Greetings, father and mother.
00:12:16Rise, rise, son-in-law.
00:12:19This bridal procession of yours is a rare spectacle in all of Shang-Ching. That shower is so valued by
00:12:25you as an honor for our Shen family.
00:12:27Young master Murong has arrived, yet there's no sign of the other groom. If I were him, I'd bury myself
00:12:33underground and never show my face.
00:12:34Sister, the auspicious hour is nearly past. Your husband still hasn't come for you. Perhaps he doesn't intend to come
00:12:41at all.
00:12:41He's here! He's here! The groom is here!
00:12:48The groom finally came.
00:12:49What I promised you, I will fulfill.
00:12:57We...
00:13:00I'm terribly sorry for arriving late.
00:13:02What on earth are you wearing? Before all these guests, you're making me lose face!
00:13:07Today is her wedding day after all. And this beggar shows up dressed like this to claim his bride. How
00:13:12can my sister not find this humiliating?
00:13:16Marriage is a lifelong matter. What matters is sincerity, not appearances. The one I, Shen Yun-King have chosen, will
00:13:22never be swayed by others' words.
00:13:24Haven't you embarrassed yourself enough?
00:13:26Don't be angry, master. Once Yun-King leaves, she'll have nothing to do with the Shen family.
00:13:31The auspicious hour has come. The bride may board the Sudan.
00:13:38Minister Zhang has arrived!
00:13:43You're much! Shut your mouth if you want to live.
00:13:47What an honor to have Minister Zhang grace us with his presence. Pardon us.
00:13:51Heaven rewards the devoted. It truly does. Congratulations, Master Shen.
00:13:56Thank 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 husband's
00:14:13home.
00:14:13Well, today is certainly an eye-opener.
00:14:16Indeed, unlike my husband.
00:14:26my lady. Let's go home.
00:14:48Shen Yun-King, once I'm an imperial noble lady, you'll regret this.
00:15:04Shen Yun-King, once I'm an imperial noble lady, you'll regret this.
00:15:09Shen Yun-King, this is the place you found for me.
00:15:21Shen Yun-King, didn't you say it had to match your current status?
00:15:25Shen Yun-King, this is far too run down.
00:15:30Shen Yun-King, I'm sorry you have to put up with this, staying in such a dump.
00:15:37How about we?
00:15:38Shen Yun-King, give it a good cleaning.
00:15:39Shen Yun-King, it's actually quite spacious.
00:15:41Shen Yun-King, it'll be cozy once we settle in.
00:15:43Shen Yun-King, from now on, this is our home.
00:15:45Shen Yun-King, our home.
00:15:47Shen Yun-King, the eldest Shen daughter is so remarkably virtuous, far better than all those
00:15:52noble ladies the Daoja Empress chose for me.
00:15:56Shen Yun-King, I don't have much to offer right now.
00:16:01This jade pendant was given to me by my father before he passed.
00:16:05Shen Yun-King, now I'm giving it to you.
00:16:08Shen Yun-King, you're giving me something so precious?
00:16:15Shen Yun-King, yes, rest assured.
00:16:17I'll keep it safe.
00:16:19Shen Yun-King, his majesty gave away his personal jade pendant.
00:16:22Shen Yun-King, does he truly love Shen Yun-King?
00:16:29Shen Yun-King, yes.
00:16:40Shen Yun-King, there are a lot ofoleil strings.
00:17:22This bed is far too hard.
00:17:39Now it's hot tea.
00:17:41Shen Yun King, are you alright?
00:17:43Did you burn yourself?
00:17:44I'm fine, don't worry.
00:17:45Breakfast is ready.
00:17:46Eat while it's still warm.
00:17:48I need to step out for a bit.
00:17:49Where are you going?
00:17:51Today is the day a new bride visits her family.
00:17:53The charms I'm making for my parents need a few more stitches.
00:17:56I need to buy some thread before we head back.
00:17:58Then I'll go with you.
00:18:00All right.
00:18:07Greetings, Your Majesty.
00:18:09Your Majesty.
00:18:14Greetings, Your Majesty.
00:18:17What's wrong?
00:18:18Are you unwell?
00:18:21What happened to His Majesty?
00:18:22Is he ill?
00:18:24You're much?
00:18:24Oh, there's plenty of dirt around here.
00:18:26There's no need for such a beau, friend.
00:18:28Yuan Lu.
00:18:28What are you doing?
00:18:30Are you alright?
00:18:32I'm fine.
00:18:32Don't worry.
00:18:34They are.
00:18:34The palace is complicated.
00:18:36Once it's settled, I'll tell Yun King who I am.
00:18:38Oh, they.
00:18:39They're here looking for Yuan Lu.
00:18:41Oh, right.
00:18:41My friends.
00:18:42They're here for me.
00:18:43I used to serve at the palace.
00:18:45We're all old friends.
00:18:47Oh.
00:18:48Shen Yun King.
00:18:48Let me help Yuan Lu with the guests.
00:18:51Can you buy the thread yourself?
00:18:52All right.
00:18:58Greetings, Your Majesty.
00:19:00Tell me.
00:19:01What happened?
00:19:02Word came from the palace.
00:19:03The Dowager Empress worried over you, overtaxed herself, and suddenly fainted.
00:19:07What?
00:19:08Yuan Lu, stay and protect young king.
00:19:10Yes, sire.
00:19:10The rest of you, return to the palace with me.
00:19:17Also, have someone select fine gifts and send them to the Shen residence as Yun King's
00:19:22homecoming gifts.
00:19:23Yes, sire.
00:19:24Let's go.
00:19:25Oh.
00:19:25Come and get them.
00:19:27Come have a look.
00:19:28Good deals on fine goods.
00:19:30Come have a look.
00:19:31Cheyu is home entertaining guests.
00:19:33I'd better not go back and disturb him.
00:19:36Father never approved of Cheyu's status.
00:19:38I'd only be humiliated if I went back.
00:19:40I'll just go on my own.
00:19:49They're family, after all.
00:19:51No matter how painful, I still have to face them.
00:19:54Let's go in.
00:19:56Father, your daughter is home.
00:19:58Father, your daughter is home.
00:20:02Father.
00:20:06Why did you come back alone, sister?
00:20:11Today is the bridal homecoming.
00:20:13Why did you come back alone, sister?
00:20:15Could it be?
00:20:16You're afraid your beggar husband would embarrass you, so you wouldn't even let him come back
00:20:20with you.
00:20:22My husband had matters to tend to.
00:20:24Shen Yun-ki, married to a beggar.
00:20:26You must have suffered quite a bit.
00:20:28You've grown so thin.
00:20:29If you hadn't married that filthy beggar, I might have taken you as a concubine.
00:20:33At least you wouldn't have fallen this low.
00:20:36Wretch!
00:20:37My husband doesn't know, but my sister has always enjoyed keeping you company of low-lifes.
00:20:42If you brought her to our Mulong residence, she might not even feel at home.
00:20:46You needn't trouble yourself.
00:20:48I'm doing just fine.
00:20:49But you, dear sister, these days, I doubt you've even seen your own husband.
00:20:54You!
00:20:55Damn you, Mulong-an.
00:20:57On our wedding night, he went to the pleasure houses and everyone found out about it.
00:21:02He humiliated me completely.
00:21:04Chowr!
00:21:10Mother, greetings, father.
00:21:14Greetings, mother.
00:21:15You came back alone and you have the nerve to show your face?
00:21:18It hasn't been long and you've forgotten all the manners we taught you?
00:21:21A man as distinguished as young Master Mulong escorted Chowr home for the visit.
00:21:26Your husband, who knows what he's busy with, couldn't even accompany you.
00:21:29Mother, don't flatter her.
00:21:30That filthy beggar is probably out on the streets begging right now.
00:21:34Father-in-law, your son-in-law has prepared some gifts.
00:21:37Bring them in.
00:21:40For our son-in-law to visit in person, that alone is an honor for me.
00:21:44And to bring all these gifts too.
00:21:46Carry them inside at once.
00:21:48My daughter marrying our son-in-law is a blessing of eight lifetimes.
00:21:51Unlike certain people who chose a beggar for a husband.
00:21:54But let's not speak of it.
00:21:55The Shen family raised you all these years and you plan to come back empty-handed?
00:21:58Indeed, sister.
00:21:59Don't tell me you're truly this destitute that you can't even prepare a homecoming gift?
00:22:05Of course not.
00:22:08These are charms I embroidered for father and mother.
00:22:12I pray that father and mother will have peace and safety.
00:22:21Get out!
00:22:22What a disgraceful thing!
00:22:24Sister, what on earth did you embroider?
00:22:26A trinket sewn from scrap cloth and you dare show it off to embarrass yourself?
00:22:31Truly worthy of a beggar's wife.
00:22:33Even the gifts you present are a perfect match.
00:22:37Never mind, never mind.
00:22:39She married a beggar after all.
00:22:40What could you expect her to bring?
00:22:42Master, master.
00:22:43The palace has sent gifts.
00:22:44They say they're homecoming gifts from the eldest miss.
00:22:57Master Shen, congratulations.
00:22:59Your eldest daughter has caught the eye of some powerful patron.
00:23:02They had someone from the palace arrange for me personally to deliver these gifts to you.
00:23:06Shopkeeper Liu, the palace truly sent you to deliver these?
00:23:10The chief eunuch himself came to arrange it all.
00:23:13How could it be false?
00:23:14They said it was for the Shen family's eldest daughter.
00:23:18You must be mistaken.
00:23:20All of Shang Jing knows that Shen Yunqing married a beggar.
00:23:23Unlike our Murong son-in-law, whose brother is Deputy Justice.
00:23:25The palace sent these out of regard for our Murong son-in-law.
00:23:28That's why.
00:23:29Those currying favor with us are countless.
00:23:31To think even the palace took notice.
00:23:35Those currying favor with us are countless.
00:23:37Father-in-law, please accept these.
00:23:40Our Chao are truly married a fine husband.
00:23:42Such a grand homecoming and all these precious gifts.
00:23:45They truly bring honor to our Shen family.
00:23:47But I recall being told these gifts were for Shen Yunqing.
00:23:50Thank you, Shopkeeper.
00:23:51Sorry for the trouble.
00:23:53They're for the Shen family.
00:23:55No mistake there.
00:23:56I must have been mistaken.
00:23:57They're for second miss.
00:23:58Then I shall take my leave.
00:24:01Carry everything inside for me.
00:24:05Sister, my husband sent homecoming gifts twice over.
00:24:08Looking at all this, don't you feel the least bit ashamed?
00:24:13Gifts need not be many.
00:24:14Sincerity is what matters.
00:24:16I see nothing wrong with it.
00:24:17Have you no thought for our family reputation?
00:24:19Or father's dignity?
00:24:21I poured everything into raising you.
00:24:24And what do you do?
00:24:25The eldest daughter of the Shen family not only married a beggar, but now you bring back this worthless rubbish
00:24:31to disgust me.
00:24:32Don't bother coming back from now on.
00:24:33The Shen family has no room for such a disgraceful daughter.
00:24:42Fine.
00:24:43I'll leave then.
00:24:44Take care of yourself.
00:24:46I'll come visit another day.
00:24:50In my past life, because of that wretched beggar, I suffered endlessly.
00:24:54Why should Shen Yunqing get to leave so easily?
00:24:57Father, look.
00:24:58She actually intends to leave without a word.
00:25:00How utterly improper.
00:25:02Indeed, master.
00:25:03You mustn't let her go so easily, lest people start gossiping behind our backs, saying the Shen family has no
00:25:08discipline.
00:25:09Stop!
00:25:11You think you can come and go as you please?
00:25:14What do you take the Shen residence for?
00:25:17In your eyes, everything I do is wrong anyway.
00:25:20I might as well leave so I'm no longer an eyesore to certain people.
00:25:23You want to leave?
00:25:25Fine.
00:25:25Unless you no-tow your way around all of Vermilion Bird Street on your knees, telling everyone that you married
00:25:31a beggar and brought shame upon the Shen family.
00:25:36And that you willingly choose to sever all ties with the Shen family.
00:25:45Greetings, your majesty.
00:25:46Greetings, your majesty.
00:25:49Mother, didn't she faint?
00:25:52Could it be that she...
00:25:55So you still remember I'm your mother?
00:25:57All I asked was for you to choose a consort.
00:26:00Was that so hard for you?
00:26:01As the emperor, you dared sneak out and cause trouble.
00:26:05The consort selection?
00:26:06You may decide, mother.
00:26:07Since you are well, I'll take my lead.
00:26:09You...
00:26:12Your majesty, the memorials have been piling up for days.
00:26:15If you delay any further, urgent matters may suffer.
00:26:18Please put state affairs first, your majesty.
00:26:20After reviewing them, you can still reach Shen residence in time.
00:26:24To the imperial study, Chao always thinks things through.
00:26:28Do as your sister says.
00:26:31Just because I married Chi Yu, you all have to humiliate me like this?
00:26:35You came home with no one to accompany you.
00:26:38No gifts to present.
00:26:39But asking you to pay respects is hardly unreasonable.
00:26:42Your sister thought of the Shen family.
00:26:44Unlike you, who married a beggar and disgraced our family.
00:26:47What dignity?
00:26:49Only because Yun-Kiao married into a wealthy family that you indulge her so.
00:26:53Insolent wretch!
00:26:54Have I been too lenient with you?
00:26:56These outrageous words, who taught you to say them?
00:26:59Am I wrong?
00:27:01In your heart, daughters are merely pawns to curry favor with the powerful.
00:27:06How dare you, speaking to your father like that?
00:27:13The Dragon Jade Pendant!
00:27:18No, I must inform his majesty at once.
00:27:23Give back my Jade Pendant!
00:27:26This Jade Pendant is a fine quality.
00:27:29Did you steal it from somewhere, sister?
00:27:31Chi Yu gave me this pendant!
00:27:33Give it back now!
00:27:33That filthy beggar?
00:27:35Then it's even less likely to be his.
00:27:38He must have stolen it from somewhere.
00:27:40A Dragon Emblazoned Pendant.
00:27:41How could it possibly appear here?
00:27:43Turns out I was mistaken.
00:27:45Chi Yu may not match your noble birth.
00:27:47Just because you own pendants as a matter of course,
00:27:50does that mean Chi Yu is unworthy?
00:27:52Hmph.
00:27:53Guarding a beggar's trinket as though it were precious.
00:27:56Come to think of it, how strange.
00:27:58You've been out here for so long,
00:28:00yet your husband hasn't come looking for you.
00:28:02He doesn't seem to care, does he?
00:28:06Give me back the pendant.
00:28:08You can have it back.
00:28:10But first you must sever all ties with the Shen family.
00:28:13You father, will you let Shen Yun-Kel behave so brazenly?
00:28:16I am your daughter too.
00:28:18You insisted on marrying a beggar and brought shame upon the Shen family.
00:28:22From now on, I, Shen Zhao, have only one daughter,
00:28:26and that is Xiao Er.
00:28:32All I ask in this life is to be with someone sincere.
00:28:36Even plain meals and simple living
00:28:38are better than enduring scorn in the Shen family.
00:28:43Very well then.
00:28:45From this day forward,
00:28:49I, Shen Yun-King, sever all ties with the Shen family.
00:28:52We are strangers henceforth.
00:28:59For the sake of a filthy beggar,
00:29:01you choose to cut ties.
00:29:03Good thing the Shen family never counted on you.
00:29:07Isn't that what you think, father?
00:29:08Why should I stay and suffer in the Shen family?
00:29:11You...
00:29:14Give me the pendant.
00:29:16Not so easy.
00:29:18Someone, bring the burning coals from the kitchen
00:29:20and lay them on the ground.
00:29:21What are you doing?
00:29:30Greetings, your majesty.
00:29:32Who sent you here?
00:29:33I am the daughter of the Grand Chancellor Zhao Shun, Shao Waner.
00:29:37The Dowager Empress sent me to attend to your majesty.
00:29:40I have state affairs to attend to.
00:29:42Leave.
00:29:43Your majesty, something terrible has happened.
00:29:46Her ladyship is at the Shens.
00:29:48At the Shens.
00:29:49What happened there?
00:29:51What is it?
00:29:52Speak!
00:29:53During her homecoming visit,
00:29:55the Shens mistreated her.
00:29:56They forced her ladyship to kneel.
00:29:58What?
00:30:00Please calm down, sire.
00:30:01Summon my men.
00:30:02Call the Shadow Guards
00:30:03and come with me to Shen residence.
00:30:06Sire, where are you going?
00:30:07The Dowager Empress said.
00:30:22Our body, hair, and skin are gifts from our parents.
00:30:25If you wish to sever ties,
00:30:26you must first repay the debt you owe them.
00:30:29Walk across and your wish shall be granted.
00:30:32No, the coals are burning so fiercely.
00:30:34Anyone who steps on them would never survive.
00:30:37I won't do it.
00:30:38Oh?
00:30:38It seems Elder Sister no longer wants the Jade Pendant.
00:30:42Don't throw it!
00:30:46Kiyu is the only person who ever truly cared for me.
00:30:49That pendant was left to him by his parents.
00:30:52I won't let his gift be desecrated.
00:30:56Fine.
00:30:57I'll walk.
00:31:21For the sake of a beggar,
00:31:22you'd actually go this far.
00:31:23You've truly lost your mind.
00:31:25Be on.
00:31:28A worthless Jade Pendant is enough for a pampered young lady to walk through hot coals.
00:31:33No wonder she'd marry a beggar.
00:31:36After all,
00:31:37a beggar has nothing of value to offer.
00:31:39No wonder Elder Sister treasures it so.
00:31:42I don't have much to offer you now.
00:31:44This Jade Pendant was my father's last gift to me.
00:31:47Now I give it to you.
00:31:56To you,
00:31:57I will get that Jade Pendant back.
00:32:11She actually made it through.
00:32:18Now,
00:32:20can you return the Jade Pendant to me?
00:32:22You want it?
00:32:23Then you'll have to get it yourself.
00:32:25If you dare take it.
00:32:28This Jade Pendant is yours.
00:32:46He really does treasure it.
00:33:12You cherish so dearly your bond with that filthy beggar.
00:33:17If your face were ruined,
00:33:19would your beloved husband still want you?
00:33:22You!
00:33:23What are you doing glaring at me like that?
00:33:25I warned you long ago.
00:33:27Marrying a beggar leads to one fate being trampled underfoot.
00:33:30All you're scheming to torment me.
00:33:33Will it truly get you what you want?
00:33:40What I want is for you to spend the rest of your life hiding in the gutter.
00:33:45Like a rex,
00:33:46watching me become the most exalted woman in this world.
00:33:55Master!
00:33:56Master!
00:33:56His Majesty is here!
00:33:58What did you say?
00:33:59His Majesty!
00:34:17Shanyun King!
00:34:28Shanyun King!
00:34:29Your Majesty!
00:34:35Shen Yun King. Shen Yun King, I'm sorry I'm late.
00:34:39Chi Yu, I didn't lose the Jade Pendant you gave me.
00:34:47Wasn't it supposed to be the Emperor? How can it be him?
00:34:51That filthy beggar can actually afford such lavish clothes!
00:34:55And these men, aren't they palace guards? Why would they follow a beggar?
00:35:00Mother, I heard that beggar's brother once held a post in the palace.
00:35:03How hard could it be to steal a few outfits?
00:35:06This beggar must be here because he lost face at the wedding last time and wants to save face.
00:35:10I heard there have been thefts in the palace. Could they be the ones behind it?
00:35:15What a joke! A filthy beggar dares put on a show at our Shen residence!
00:35:19Sister, look at the fine husband you chose. Being useless is one thing, but now to save face, he has
00:35:25the audacity to steal from the Imperial Palace.
00:35:28If the Emperor finds out, will you even survive?
00:35:31Incorrigible fool, you're courting death.
00:35:37What? What are you gonna do?
00:35:40Shen Yun King, what's wrong?
00:35:41It hurts.
00:35:53Who did this?
00:35:55It was me. So what? I was only trying to help my dear sister.
00:35:58Who would have thought she'd walk barefoot over hot coals just for some worthless jade pendant?
00:36:04I can't fathom what goes on in that head of hers. Utterly stupid.
00:36:08Shut your mouth! Who do you think you are to shriek and holler before me?
00:36:12So what if I berate her? She's the one who married a useless wretch like you.
00:36:16Compared to me, Shen Yun King, you're nothing but ants.
00:36:19Even if I wanted her dead today, she should kneel and thank me for it.
00:36:23Let's see how long you keep up this charade. Seize him!
00:36:29No one lays a hand on what's mine. Seize them!
00:36:33Yes, sir!
00:36:39How dare you! I am the lady of the Murong residence!
00:36:44Husband, save me!
00:36:46You filthy beggar! You dare lay hands on my wife? You must have a death wish!
00:36:52Wretched fool! Young Master Murong is of royal blood.
00:36:55If you dare touch him, you make an enemy of all the Murongs.
00:37:00Royal blood? So what?
00:37:01Anyone who touches my people will meet nothing but death.
00:37:06You filthy beggar! You're overplaying your hand!
00:37:09Before I lose my temper, let go now and I might spare your life!
00:37:13You've tormented Shen Yun King to such a wretched state.
00:37:17Shove their faces into the burning coals!
00:37:19No! Father, let me go!
00:37:21Shower! Father, do something!
00:37:23You dare touch me?
00:37:25When the Ministry of Justice arrives, they won't let you off!
00:37:28Wait!
00:37:29You said the Ministry of Justice?
00:37:33Scared now, aren't you?
00:37:34My brother is a court official.
00:37:36If you harm me, you're as good as dead!
00:37:41I'd like to see exactly who in the Ministry of Justice would indulge scum like you to be so brazen.
00:37:48Press him down!
00:37:51Shower! Let me go! Let me go!
00:37:53You worthless wretch! Want to die? Don't drag the Shen family down!
00:37:58Stop!
00:38:05Brother, brother, save me!
00:38:08Get him!
00:38:23You cur!
00:38:24You tried to hurt my brother?
00:38:26Insolent!
00:38:27What if I am?
00:38:29That voice!
00:38:32You're...
00:38:36Quite the authority you wield, Minister of Justice!
00:38:41Your Majesty!
00:38:43Your Majesty!
00:38:47Your Majesty!
00:38:48This beggar? Impossible!
00:38:51Brother, don't let this filthy beggar fool you!
00:38:54He stole from the Imperial Palace!
00:38:56These people were all bribed by him!
00:38:58You're new here!
00:38:59Mistakes are natural!
00:39:00But he really is just a filthy beggar, not the Emperor!
00:39:04Could I truly have been mistaken?
00:39:06I once got a glimpse from afar of His Majesty's profile.
00:39:10Perhaps they just look alike.
00:39:12His Majesty would never appear in a place like this.
00:39:14You wretched girl! Look at the fine husband you chose!
00:39:17Now you've provoked young Master Murak!
00:39:19Let's see how you get out of this!
00:39:21My lord! You must seek justice for us!
00:39:23That filthy beggar and Shen Yun King have no regard for decency!
00:39:26They tried to murder their own kin!
00:39:29Outrageous!
00:39:29In the Imperial Capital such insolence won't be tolerated!
00:39:33Guards! Take them all and throw them into the justice dungeon!
00:39:36Interrogate them under torture!
00:39:38Hold on!
00:39:40What else do you have to say?
00:39:42I had no idea when you became the Deputy Minister of Justice.
00:39:45You're just a filthy beggar.
00:39:47How could you possibly know about court officials?
00:39:49My brother was appointed by the Dowager Empress.
00:39:51Regretting it now, are you?
00:39:53You even dare to deceive the Dowager Empress.
00:39:56The Morong family certainly has some nerve.
00:39:58Dowager Empress, you must seek justice for me!
00:40:01His Majesty married outside wed to the eldest daughter of the Shen family.
00:40:05For that woman's sake, His Majesty even laughed out at me!
00:40:08What?
00:40:09You're saying the Emperor actually married some woman outside the palace?
00:40:16Attendant!
00:40:18Prepare my palanquins!
00:40:21How dare you!
00:40:22You dare offend the Empress?
00:40:23How many heads do you have to spare?
00:40:25Lord Morong, please see reason.
00:40:27The Shen family has severed all ties with Shen Yun King.
00:40:30Whatever he said has nothing to do with us.
00:40:32My lord, the Shen family has always abided by the rules.
00:40:35We'd never dare malign the royals.
00:40:37We beg Lord Morong's fair judgment.
00:40:39Yes, my lord, please look into this.
00:40:41You filthy beggar! Offending royalty is a capital crime!
00:40:43My lord, you must not let him go!
00:40:45Shen Yun King, your husband committed a grave crime.
00:40:48No one can save you today.
00:40:50I cannot let Qiyu come to harm.
00:40:53Have mercy, my lord.
00:40:54My husband was merely confused for a moment.
00:40:59Shen Yun King.
00:41:03I'll take you to a physician now.
00:41:06Such audacity!
00:41:07You dare try to flee?
00:41:08Guards, stop them!
00:41:13Anyone who dares stand in the way will be killed on sight.
00:41:15Yes, my lord!
00:41:28You think leaving will be that easy?
00:41:41Shen Yun!
00:41:49Shen Yun Kiao!
00:41:50How can you be so vicious?
00:41:52Chi Yu has never wronged you.
00:41:53How could you do this to him?
00:41:55That filthy beggar dared have someone disfigure me.
00:41:58Did you really think I'd let you walk away so easily?
00:42:04Don't bother looking.
00:42:06Your men are too busy to save you now.
00:42:09You're asking for death!
00:42:12Chi Yu, I'm fine.
00:42:15Go now.
00:42:16Go!
00:42:17Can you really escape?
00:42:19Why won't you just leave me alone?
00:42:21I must say, you are truly blessed, dear sister.
00:42:24Even married off to a beggar, you still win tree loans.
00:42:27But the more that's so, the less I'll let you have your way.
00:42:30What lies between us should not involve the innocent.
00:42:34Do whatever you want to me.
00:42:37I beg you, let Chi Yu go.
00:42:42Shen Yun King!
00:42:45How touching!
00:42:46Even at a time like this, such devoted lovers you are.
00:42:50Since your bond runs so deep, I might as well send you off together.
00:42:54Die!
00:43:02The Dowager Empress arrived!
00:43:13Who dares harm my son?
00:43:16Greetings Dowager Empress!
00:43:20He's truly, the Emperor?
00:43:27The physician!
00:43:29Catch 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.
00:43:42If anything happens to Shen Yun King, I will hold you responsible.
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?
00:44:05I had it all figured out.
00:44:06Given a second life, and I chose wrong again.
00:44:12Spare me, Your Majesty, please!
00:44:14Your Majesty!
00:44:15Please forgive me!
00:44:16I was blind and foolish and hurt you by mistake!
00:44:20Your Majesty, everyone in the Shen residence has been arrested.
00:44:24What?
00:44:26You called him?
00:44:27He was just a beggar!
00:44:28How can he be the Emperor?
00:44:30How can he be the Emperor?
00:44:30Mercy, Your Majesty!
00:44:31I know my wrongs.
00:44:32When you were tormenting Shen Yun King, did you ever imagine this day would 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!
00:44:47Moronghi, 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 alongside Moorong 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!
00:45:13Yes!
00:45:14Exactly!
00:45:14We beg the Dowager Empress for mercy!
00:45:16My son, though the two Moorong family sons are foolish, they were not the masterminds.
00:45:21Spare them this once and show leniency.
00:45:25But those two...
00:45:27As you wish, Mother.
00:45:36Shen Yun King.
00:45:37Shi Yu!
00:45:37Are 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?
00:45:54Mother!
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...
00:46:21You must not reveal your identity to Shen Yun King.
00:46:25Otherwise, 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.
00:46:35What 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.
00:47:08She 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, we'll leave the palace together and live
00:47:19an ordinary life.
00:47:19All right.
00:47:23Genuinely.
00:47:25I 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. No fixed quarters.
00:47:42Don't worry. Whenever I'm free, I'll come visit you.
00:47:46All right.
00:47:57Visiting the Bureau without any advance notice?
00:48:02This is the new maid, Shen Yun King.
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. Go to her if you need anything.
00:48:14Greetings, Steward Lin.
00:48:15I see. Rest assured I'll take good care of Shen Yun King.
00:48:20She's being far too gracious. I'm here to work. Why does it feel like I'm here to be a mistress?
00:48:25Perhaps she's just a kind person. That's good then. You won't be bullied at the Bureau.
00:48:30Shen Yun King, please follow me.
00:48:43Wash all of these clean.
00:48:45We both serve in the Bureau. I have no reason to do your laundry.
00:48:49How dare you even ask? You took my duties, so now I scrub chamber pots.
00:48:53Some people who knows what tricks they use to get into the Bureau, since Steward Lin favors you so much,
00:48:58giving you all the easy work.
00:49:08Give it back!
00:49:11A Dragon Jade pendant. Only His Majesty may to wear such a thing.
00:49:15Speak! Where did you steal this?
00:49:17What, His Majesty? Give me back my pendant now!
00:49:21Go notify Steward Lin at once.
00:49:23Yes.
00:49:40King Shen! You!
00:49:42I-I didn't mean to! Seize her now!
00:49:48All of you, stop!
00:49:53Your Majesty.
00:49:56This Bureau is such a humble place. You have never set foot here before.
00:50:00I fear it may offend your sacred person. Allow this old servant to announce your arrival first. No need.
00:50:07I disguise myself as a senior attendant, precisely to observe Shen Yun-King as she truly is.
00:50:14If she were to learn my identity, it would only complicate matters.
00:50:19Palace rules are strict. I 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 Yun-King stole His Majesty's pendant. I caught her. And fearing exposure, she actually tried to harm me.
00:50:36Theft is the gravest sin here than sticky fingers. Madam Lin, you must punish her severely. Madam, it's not what
00:50:42they 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. It really is His Majesty's.
00:51:11Please judge fairly, Madam. I truly did not know it belonged to His Majesty. Madam, please don't be deceived by
00:51:17her honeyed words.
00:51:18She dared to steal His Majesty's Jade Pendant. Who 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, the left foot shall be severed
00:51:31and 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.
00:51:44Thrive.
00:51:45Thank you, Madam.
00:51:48This is Madam Wang, the new steward. She 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.
00:52:52Miss Zhao has come to the palace again today.
00:52:55Would you like to?
00:52:55No.
00:52:57Send her back where she came from.
00:52:59But...
00:52:59And you.
00:53:00I'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!
00:53:15How 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.
00:53:22Alright.
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.
00:53:44I 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.
00:53:56Alright.
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.
00:54:41You all heard it.
00:54:42I'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.
00:54:51All she's asking is for you to collect morning dew.
00:54:55Be grateful.
00:54:56I never stole that jade pendant.
00:54:58Stop making false accusations.
00:55:00Not stolen?
00:55:01Then what, His Majesty personally gave it to you?
00:55:04I...
00:55:05Forget it.
00:55:06Why do I even bother explaining to you people?
00:55:09Who 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 Lin has your back.
00:55:19You can do as you please.
00:55:20Move.
00:55:25Shen Yun King.
00:55:29Shen Yun King.
00:55:30Are you alright?
00:55:31This?
00:55:32Who did this?
00:55:34Why is Eunuch Yuan Lu here?
00:55:36Could he be?
00:55:37You're all dead.
00:55:39Your... Your Majesty.
00:55:41You're the Emperor?
00:55:47Insolent fool.
00:55:49This 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.
00:56:14So he was summoned to the palace for questioning.
00:56:16He's new and doesn't know the rules.
00:56:18Don't you know this bureau is not to be entered freely?
00:56:20Forgive me madam.
00:56:21It was all my fault.
00:56:23I shouldn't have quarreled with Yaochi 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.
00:56:36Just 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!
00:58:26What 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 beautify the skin.
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!
00:58:47I 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!
00:58:59Drag her away and sell her off to a slave trader!
00:59:02Please spare me, Auntie!
00:59:11Auntie Wang.
00:59:12Perhaps 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.
00:59:22My Department works.
00:59:23Give me your money.
00:59:26More money.
00:59:27It's impossible.
00:59:27To allow you to go to a higher risk.
00:59:27My Master.
00:59:28My Master.
00:59:29His Majesty hasn't paid any attention to me in ages.
00:59:32Yet I hear that 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! Even if I had the nerve of a lion, I wouldn't dare seduce his majesty!
00:59:50Now I remember! Yes, 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, let's see how arrogant you'll be
01:00:03then.
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. You do have some skill.
01:00:20Thank you for the kind words.
01:00:30Thank you. If 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. Just a bit sharp-tongued, that's all.
01:00:50Your majesty, I believe that. His majesty's resolve to make her empress is no mere impulse.
01:00:58Shen Yun 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?
01:01:34Who the likes of you?
01:01:35You lowly wretches dare to harbor such impudent thoughts?
01:01:45When 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. It was you who picked fights on purpose.
01:02:07Do you have any idea who I am, that you dare act so insolent before me?
01:02:12The one standing before you is the daughter of Chancellor Zhao.
01:02:15Miss Zhao is the dowager empress's pick for empress.
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, you 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.
01:02:55Since 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!
01:03:54A disfigured old servant.
01:03:56Daring to use the title of dowager empress.
01:03:59You must have a death wish.
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 as asking for death.
01:04:15You...
01:04:15Bring me my whip!
01:04:19As the steward of the bureau of palace servants,
01:04:21you allowed a servant to seduce his majesty.
01:04:25Leading 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.
01:04:41Rest assured, sire.
01:04:43I shall spare no effort.
01:04:46Insolent wretch.
01:04:47Disturbing his majesty.
01:04:49Do 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,
01:05:24I shall grant your wish.
01:05:25Enough, Zhao Wanner!
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. Today I shall teach you some manners on behalf of the Dowager Empress.
01:05:36Stop!
01:05:41Your Majesty?
01:05:43Jalwanner, do you know who it is you were about to strike?
01:05:47Greetings Dowager Empress. Greetings Dowager Empress.
01:05:51How 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 the Dowager Empress
01:06:11herself.
01:06:12Your Majesty, I didn't mean to do it. Please intercede with the Dowager Empress on my behalf. Your Majesty.
01:06:22I believe this matter is of great importance. It concerns the Dowager's dignity. Please judge this carefully.
01:06:29I...
01:06:38Exactly. You...
01:06:40Your Majesty!
01:06:41You still won't admit fault?
01:06:43I know my error. Dowager 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. You spread that rumor about her. That was
01:07:13you too.
01:07:14You Jing-xiang, how dare you betray me?
01:07:16Enough!
01:07:20The palace maid Yao-chi has spread malicious rumors and violated palace rules.
01:07:25She is to be taken away and sold at once.
01:07:28Have mercy, Dowager Empress. I am truly innocent.
01:07:31Shen Yun-king, I saw you with that guard flirting with each other. I never made anything up!
01:07:39So, you are the Shen family's eldest.
01:07:55Shen Yun-king.
01:07:58Xinyu, 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? And about making her empress?
01:08:25There's no rush for that. The Spring Festival Banquet is next month. The Ministry can't handle both at once. They
01:08:31simply don't have the manpower.
01:08:33Besides, this is all too sudden. I 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, but also justify crowning her empress.
01:08:56The Dowager wants you to run the Spring Festival Banquet.
01:09:00Me?
01:09:02But I don't know how to do any of this.
01:09:04Don't worry. With your talent, you'll manage just fine. I'll help you behind the scenes.
01:09:17Move it, all of you! Anyone caught slacking off, my whip doesn't have eyes!
01:09:26Useless! Still think you're some young lady? In 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! I'm the Prime Minister's daughter. You'd better show me some respect. The 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, I
01:10:00can turn it all around.
01:10:05What a dump! They actually expect me to wash clothes myself!
01:10:08Miss Zhao, I have a favor to ask!
01:10:11A favor for me? Why should I help you?
01:10:14If 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. The banquet arrangements are clear and well-organized. One 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! The discipline office is on fire!
01:10:51What?
01:10:54Shen Yun-king, come with me to the discipline office!
01:11:08Sir, what's the situation inside?
01:11:10The fire burned the whole rear yard. Nearly half the people didn't make it out.
01:11:14Could it be that Zhao Wanner has already...
01:11:19Thalajur Empress?
01:11:21Greetings, Your Majesty! Greetings, Your Majesty!
01:11:25Good! You're alive! At least I can answer to your father!
01:11:29I've learned my lesson! Please lift my punishment!
01:11:32This place, I truly cannot bear another day!
01:11:34Very well! With 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 him!
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-kiao is indeed my sister.
01:11:57But the two of us have seldom been close. We share no deep bond.
01:11:59As for Yun-kiao's affairs, it is not my place to interfere. I leave it entirely to Your Majesty.
01:12:05Your 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.
01:12:23Zhao Wanner, though I have lifted your punishment, I never said you were free to go.
01:12:27Next month, the marriage alliance with Liao shall fall to you.
01:12:33What? A diplomatic marriage?
01:12:35You refuse. Or 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've ruined our parents and the Mu-Rongs.
01:12:55You 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.
01:13:11But 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 act, 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.
01:13:38Brother, 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?
01:14:41Our 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.
01:15:07Hmm, delicious.
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.
01:15:26All right.
01:15:28I'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.
01:16:07Shen 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 died, 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.
01:17:00But now, no one is here to protect you.
01:17:04Greetings, 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.
01:17:33Speak.
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. If you had a clear conscience, why rush to leave the moment you saw
01:18:04us?
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.
01:18:11It was I who asked to meet him.
01:18:17Ultimately, 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.
01:18:39But Shen Yun-king organized the banquet with great devotion.
01:18:43Her merits offset her faults.
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. Where are you going?
01:19:21The banquet is about to begin. Please change and head over now.
01:19:25I've thought it over. And 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.
01:19:33But...
01:19:36What is it?
01:19:37You've done a great service this time. The nobles all praised the Spring Banquet. Even the Dowager looked quite pleased.
01:19:44That's good to hear. Someone awaits you in the rear yard. Hurry!
01:19:49Who?
01:19:53Assassin! Protect the Dowager Empress!
01:19:56What happened in there?
01:19:58An assassin disguised as a dancer attacked the Empress.
01:20:01Young Master Mulong took the blade for her. The assassin escaped.
01:20:05What?
01:20:08Take her away!
01:20:11What are you doing?
01:20:12The Empress was attacked. We have orders to arrest Shen Yun-king. We're questioning at the court.
01:20:27Aye, Shen Yun-king, greet the Prime Minister.
01:20:29Prime Minister Zhao, she was in charge of the banquet. Is her...
01:20:32The palace is heavily guarded. No one could get in easily. Shen Yun-king must have colluded with the assassin.
01:20:38The one who sent Warner away is also named Shen Yun-king.
01:20:42Hm. How dare you!
01:20:44You planted an assassin at the banquet to kill the Empress. What were you scheming?
01:20:48Everyone I arranged was verified. As 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. Before 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? There's more to this?
01:21:04I can testify. That guard is at the rights office now.
01:21:07Guards! Bring that guard here! I will get to the bottom of this!
01:21:18Is it him?
01:21:20Yes, that's him.
01:21:29Lord Chancellor, they've been brought in.
01:21:31Hmm.
01:21:33Chi Yu.
01:21:34Shen Yun-king, do you know your crime?
01:21:36The assassin. I truly know nothing of it.
01:21:39Lord Chancellor, please grant me some time. I will uncover the truth.
01:21:42The palace banquet was arranged by your own hands. You want to wash your hands of it now? Too late.
01:21:48Outside assassins used the banquet dance as cover to strike. This was clearly premeditated.
01:21:54Whether or not she sent the assassin? The dowager's safety was at risk. She must answer for it.
01:21:59I didn't.
01:22:00Lord Chancellor, please punish these two.
01:22:03Lord Chancellor, please judge fairly. The banquet assassin is all my fault. Please do not implicate anyone else.
01:22:09If my husband had not reacted in time and shielded the dowager, even ten heads of yours wouldn't suffice. I
01:22:15-
01:22:15Enough. Maid Shen Yun-king had an illicit affair defiling palace order. She endangered the dowager. Both shall be executed
01:22:23immediately.
01:22:24Lord Chancellor, please withdraw this order.
01:22:29Chi Yu.
01:22:31I'm sorry for dragging you into this.
01:22:33Shen 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.
01:22:45Your- your majesty. Long live your majesty. Long live long live.
01:22:55Shen Yun-king. I-
01:22:56How is this possible?
01:22:57Shen Yun-king, I'm sorry. I deceived you.
01:23:01Greetings, your majesty. Long live your majesty.
01:23:05Shen Yun-king, I-
01:23:07Your majesty, what is going on?
01:23:09How dare you all? Believing one side of the story and rushing to judgment, condemning an innocent person to death.
01:23:15Such conduct. How 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. I didn't know the one with my sister was your
01:23:28majesty. Please forgive me your majesty. I would never dare deceive your majesty. My loyalty to your majesty heaven and
01:23:35earth can attest.
01:23:36You have apposed Shen Yun-king at every turn. Had I not been here today, you would have had your
01:23:40way.
01:23:41No. I never intended to harm my sister. I was truly worried about the dowager's health and lost my composure.
01:23:47Chancellor Zhao, you know this. I truly did not.
01:23:50Enough, Yun-kiao. Say no more.
01:23:53Your majesty, what matters most right now is resolving the assassination attempt. Please render judgment and punish Shen Yun-king.
01:24:00The truth has not yet been established. How can you be sure she did this?
01:24:04As the person in charge of the spring festival banquet, she let assassins into the palace and attacked the dowager
01:24:10empress. Her crime warrants death. Please order immediately her imprisonment and thorough interrogation.
01:24:17The chancellor speaks rightly. Had my husband not been present today, the dowager empress might not have survived.
01:24:23Your majesty, my safety matters little. But if Shen Yun-king goes unpunished, should such an incident occur again, who
01:24:29will safeguard the palace? I implore your majesty to deal with Shen Yun-king.
01:24:32How dare you, Mu Rong'an? You presume to force my hand?
01:24:38If I can produce evidence proving Shen Yun-king's innocence, what punishment shall you face?
01:24:44Impossible.
01:24:49Impossible.
01:24:51Zhao Xun, I am speaking to you.
01:24:55If I have falsely accused Shen Yun-king today, I 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. By your majesty's command, this servant planted informants in advance and apprehended the assassin in time.
01:25:17Mercy, your majesty. The attack on the empress dowager was ordered by Shen Yun-kiao, the two of them. I
01:25:23was truly forced into it.
01:25:24What?
01:25:26This...
01:25:27It's over.
01:25:30Zhao Xun, do not think I am unaware you did this for your daughter, Zhao Wan-er.
01:25:35Since you wanted Shen Yun-king dead, I will not let you live either. Guards, take him!
01:25:39Your majesty, I have served Great Shia with devotion for decades. How can your majesty treat me like this?
01:25:45And all of you, believing one-sided claims and rushing to judge, harming the innocent. With such conduct, how dare
01:25:52you call yourselves officials?
01:25:53Your majesty, we acknowledge our fault.
01:25:56Three months' salary shall be docked. Should this happen again, I will show no leniency.
01:26:01We thank your majesty for his mercy.
01:26:03As for you two...
01:26:04Mercy, your majesty. It was all Shen Yun-kiao. It was her wretched idea.
01:26:08You're lying! Your majesty, I was merely jealous of my sister Yun-king. I never meant to harm the empress
01:26:13dowager. The assassination was Mu Rong-an's idea. Even him taking a blade for her was staged by himself.
01:26:19Wretched woman, how dare you betray me!
01:26:21Enough!
01:26:23Mu Rong-an and Shen Yun-kiao, as masterminds, shall be executed immediately. The seamstress shall be held at court
01:26:29to 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. If she were simply put to death, she'd be getting off easy.
01:26:55Shen Yun-king! How dare you do this to me! I hate you! If not for you, I should be
01:27:00the one enjoying all of this!
01:27:03You're wrong. It wasn't I who made you this way. It was yourself. The fate you face now is entirely
01:27:08of your own making.
01:27:10Very well!
01:27:11Shen Yun-kiao shall be made a lowly slave, vanished to southern prefecture, never to set foot in the capital
01:27:16again.
01:27:17No! I won't go! I refuse to go to southern prefecture! I want to be an imperial noble lady! I
01:27:23want to be the distinguished woman in the world!
01:27:27Young-king!
01:27:31Young-king!
01:27:32Young-king!
01:27:34Young-king!
01:27:35Young-king!
01:27:35Young-king!
01:27:35John-king!
01:27:36Young-king!
01:27:37Young-king!
01:27:37His majesty and her ladyship have finally found their happy union!
01:27:41My lady!
01:27:44Young-king!
01:27:44From this day forward I shall make you my Empress
01:28:06The Empress investiture ceremony now begins
01:28:24Long live your majesty
01:28:27Rise
01:28:32Shen Yun King, from 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
