Transcript

00:00:00Lady Shen of the Murong Residence, virtuous and prudent by nature, diligent and gentle, is hereby bestowed the title of

00:00:06First-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.

00:00:33Why?

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.

00:00:46The 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.

00:01:21Listen 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.

00:01:47Miss, it's your turn to throw the ball.

00:01:52Shen Yun-Kiao.

00:01:54Sister, why don't I go first?

00:01:56In my past life, Shen Yun-Kiao insisted I throw first, deferring again and again.

00:02:01But now, it seems Shen Yun-Kiao has also been reborn.

00:02:05Fine, 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 Mu-Rong An will be me.

00:02:29Master, look! The one who caught it is the Mu-Rong's second young master!

00:02:33It's him! It's Mu-Rong An, second son of Mu-Rong!

00:02:35The Mu-Rong's are distant kin to royalty. The eldest son, Mu-Rong He, just days ago, was appointed deputy

00:02:41minister of justice.

00:02:43If the Shen family could marry into the Mu-Rong's, we'd practically be royalty ourselves.

00:02:47Mu-Rong An.

00:02:49In this life, I finally changed my fate.

00:02:52In three years, Mu-Rong 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.

00:03:06Wonderful, wonderful!

00:03:08Chow-R is truly a daughter I raised myself.

00:03:10She brings honor to the Shen family.

00:03:12You flatter me, father.

00:03:13I only wish to do right by our family.

00:03:15Once I become Lady Mu-Rong, I shall watch my every word indeed and bring prosperity to our family.

00:03:20Sister, don't you agree?

00:03:23How fortunate for you, sister.

00:03:25I'm truly happy for you.

00:03:26Shen Yun-King, your good fortune has been stolen by me.

00:03:29In this lifetime, I will never let you overshadow me again.

00:03:35Chow-R, look! Young Master Mu-Rong can hardly take his eyes off you.

00:03:47Isn't that...

00:03:49The Emperor?

00:03:51Your Majesty, dress like this outside.

00:03:54If the Dowager Empress finds out...

00:03:56She nags me daily to pick a concert.

00:03:57I had no choice but to slip out for some peace.

00:03:59It's a good chance to see the life of common folk.

00:04:02Your Majesty has always been a devoted ruler, but dress like this.

00:04:06Shabby as these clothes are.

00:04:07They help me blend in unnoticed.

00:04:09Would 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.

00:04:24We'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.

00:04:34How 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 Mu-Rong residence,

00:04:48When Shen Yun-King chooses her husband shortly, she'd better not disappoint.

00:04:53Mother, what kind of thing is that to say? Sister has always been lucky.

00:04:57How could she possibly embarrass father? If you ask me, sister will surely find the finest husband of all.

00:05:02Shen Yun-King, your sister's marriage is as good as settled now.

00:05:05We already have one with power, so you'd better find one with wealth.

00:05:09Only 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.

00:05:21In this life, I only wish to find a good and true companion and live out my days in peace.

00:05:26Your Majesty! Miss 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 Yun-Kiao's embroidered ball.

00:05:48Oh my! A perfectly good embroidered ball! Snatched away by a beggar!

00:05:52Sister, what rotten luck you have! Of all people, you picked a beggar!

00:05:56Who knows which deity you've offended? Where does that leave father's reputation?

00:06:01Useless girl! With all those men below, you had to throw it to a beggar!

00:06:04Now everyone in Shang-Jing is laughing at us! Are you trying to humiliate me?

00:06:08My lord!

00:06:09At least our chow has done well and matched with the Murong's.

00:06:13Otherwise, the Shen family would truly be disgraced today.

00:06:16How would we ever show our faces again?

00:06:18What's done is done. Sister, don't be too upset.

00:06:21Though 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?

00:06:42Everyone's watching. If 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!

00:06:56My heavens! Why is the embroidered ball in your hands? Perhaps you should just toss it away.

00:07:01Outside 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...

00:07:24Sister, 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!

00:07:40In 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!

00:08:05My name is Shen Yun-King. What's yours?

00:08:09I...

00:08:10My 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 the word?

00:08:31No, 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.

00:09:13The 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.

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.

00:09:38All right, everyone, move along. Always crowding around for a spectacle. Honestly.

00:09:43The show's over. Time to go home.

00:09:45Young Master Murong! Young Master Murong, please wait!

00:09:49Young 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!

00:10:37Oh 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.

00:10:47We'll 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,

00:11:13phoenix hairpins, a pair, one EC pearl flower crown, a pair of jade bracelets,

00:11:1920 bolts of shoe brocade, and three land deeds for silk shops in the 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.

00:11:31Both daughters of the Shen family want a stark difference. Haven't you heard?

00:11:35The second Miss Shen is marrying the Muurong residence's second young master,

00:11:39while 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.

00:11:47I wonder if she'll adapt.

00:11:49The groom is here!

00:11:53Worthy of the Muurong's second young master, what a grand procession.

00:11:57The Muurong residence holds immense power. Once the second Miss Shen marries in,

00:12:01she'll live in endless luxury. The 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.

00:12:18This bridal procession of yours is a rare spectacle in all of Shang Jing.

00:12:23That shower is so valued by you as an honor for our Shen family.

00:12:27Young Master Muurong has arrived, yet there's no sign of the other groom.

00:12:31If I were him, I'd bury myself underground and never show my face.

00:12:34Sister, the auspicious hour is nearly past. Your husband still hasn't come for you.

00:12:39Perhaps he doesn't intend to come at all.

00:12:42He's here! He's here! The groom is here!

00:12:48You finally came.

00:12:49What I promised you, I will fulfill.

00:12:56Sweet!

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.

00:13:12How can my sister not find this humiliating?

00:13:15Marriage is a lifelong matter. What matters is sincerity, not appearances. The one I, Shen Yun King, have chosen,

00:13:22will never be swayed by others' words. Haven'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 sedan.

00:13:38Minister Zhang has arrived!

00:13:43You're much!

00:13:44Shut 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.

00:14:29My lady, let's go home.

00:14:30My lady, let's go home.

00:14:48Shen Yun King, once I'm an imperial noble lady, you'll regret this.

00:14:53Shen 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. Home. The eldest Shen daughter is so remarkably virtuous, far better than all those noble ladies the Dowager

00:15:53Empress 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. 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?

00:16:30Shen Yun King, whoosp cartoons that first�至 tonight.

00:16:32Shen Yun King...

00:16:33Shen Yun King...

00:16:36Shen Yun King...

00:16:46Shen Yun King...

00:17:15Sous-titrage MFP.

00:17:21Sous-titrage MFP.

00:17:48I need to step out for a bit.

00:17:49Where are you going?

00:17:50Today 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.

00:18:00Alright.

00:18:06Greetings, 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?

00:18:23Your match?

00:18:24Oh, there's plenty of dirt around here.

00:18:26No need for such a beau, friend.

00:18:28Yuan Lu.

00:18:29What are you doing?

00:18:30Are you alright?

00:18:31I'm fine.

00:18:32Don't worry.

00:18:33They are.

00:18:34The palace is complicated.

00:18:36Once it's settled, I'll tell Yunqing 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 Yunqing.

00:18:49Let me help Yuan Lu with the guests.

00:18:51Can you buy the thread yourself?

00:18:52Alright.

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,

00:19:05overtaxed herself, and suddenly fainted.

00:19:07What?

00:19:08Yuan Lu, stay and protect Yuanqing.

00:19:10Yes, sire.

00:19:10The rest of you, return to the palace with me.

00:19:17Also, have someone select fine gifts

00:19:19and send them to the Shen residence

00:19:20as Yuanqing's homecoming gifts.

00:19:23Yes, sire.

00:19:24Let's go.

00:19:25Hot buns!

00:19:26Come and get them!

00:19:27Come have a look!

00:19:28Good deals on fine goods!

00:19:30Come have a look!

00:19:31Cheeyu is home entertaining guests.

00:19:33I'd better not go back and disturb him.

00:19:35Father never approved of Cheeyu'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!

00:20:05Why 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,

00:20:18so you wouldn't even let him come back with you.

00:20:21My husband had matters to tend to.

00:20:24Shen Yun-king, 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,

00:20:31I 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,

00:20:38but my sister has always enjoyed keeping you company of lowlifes.

00:20:42If you brought her to our Mulong residence,

00:20:44she 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,

00:20:51I doubt you've even seen your own husband.

00:20:53You!

00:20:55Damn you, Mulong-an.

00:20:57On our wedding night,

00:20:58he went to the pleasure houses,

00:20:59and everyone found out about it.

00:21:02He humiliated me completely.

00:21:04Chow-er!

00:21:10Mother.

00:21:12Greetings, father.

00:21:14Greetings, mother.

00:21:15You came back alone,

00:21:16and you have the nerve to show your face?

00:21:18It hasn't been long,

00:21:19and you've forgotten all the manners we taught you.

00:21:21A man as distinguished as young master Mulong

00:21:23escorted Chow-er home for the visit.

00:21:25Your husband, who knows what he's busy with,

00:21:27couldn'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,

00:21:35your son-in-law has prepared some gifts.

00:21:37Bring them in.

00:21:40For our son-in-law to visit in person,

00:21:42that 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

00:21:49is a blessing of eight lifetimes.

00:21:51Unlike certain people who chose a beggar for a husband,

00:21:53but let's not speak of it.

00:21:55The Shen family raised you all these years,

00:21:56and you plan to come back empty-handed?

00:21:58Indeed, sister.

00:21:59Don't tell me you're truly this destitute

00:22:01that 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

00:22:13will 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,

00:22:28and 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.

00:22:38She 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

00:22:46from the eldest miss.

00:22:47What?

00:22:57Master Shen, congratulations!

00:22:59Your eldest daughter has caught the eye

00:23:01of some powerful patron.

00:23:02They had someone from the palace

00:23:03arrange for me personally

00:23:05to deliver these gifts to you.

00:23:06Shopkeeper Liu,

00:23:07the palace truly sent you

00:23:09to deliver these?

00:23:10The chief eunuch himself

00:23:11came to arrange it all.

00:23:12How could it be false?

00:23:14They said it was for

00:23:15the Shen family's eldest daughter.

00:23:18You must be mistaken.

00:23:20All of Shang Jing knows

00:23:21that Shen Yun-King married a beggar.

00:23:22Unlike our Murong son-in-law,

00:23:24whose brother is Deputy Justice,

00:23:25the palace sent these out of regard

00:23:27for our Murong son-in-law.

00:23:28That's why those currying favor

00:23:30with us are countless.

00:23:31To think even the palace took notice.

00:23:35Those currying favor with us

00:23:36are countless.

00:23:37Father-in-law,

00:23:38please accept these.

00:23:40Our Chao are truly married

00:23:41a fine husband.

00:23:42Such a grand homecoming

00:23:44and all these precious gifts.

00:23:45They truly bring honor

00:23:46to our Shen family.

00:23:47But I recall being told

00:23:48these gifts were for

00:23:49Shen Yun-King.

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,

00:24:06my husband sent

00:24:06homecoming gifts twice over.

00:24:08Looking at all this,

00:24:09don't you feel

00:24:10the least bit ashamed?

00:24:13Gifts need not be many.

00:24:14Sincerity is what matters.

00:24:15I see nothing wrong with it.

00:24:17Have you no thought

00:24:18for our family reputation

00:24:19or father's dignity?

00:24:21I poured everything

00:24:21into raising you.

00:24:24And what do you do?

00:24:25The eldest daughter

00:24:26of the Shen family

00:24:27not only married a beggar,

00:24:28but now you bring back

00:24:29this worthless rubbish

00:24:30to disgust me.

00:24:32Don't bother coming back

00:24:32from now on.

00:24:33The Shen family

00:24:34has no room

00:24:35for such a disgraceful daughter.

00:24:42Fine.

00:24:42I'll leave then.

00:24:44Take care of yourself.

00:24:46I'll come visit another day.

00:24:50In my past life,

00:24:51because of that wretched beggar,

00:24:52I suffered endlessly.

00:24:54Why should Shen Yun-King

00:24:55get to leave so easily?

00:24:57Father, look.

00:24:57She actually intends

00:24:59to leave without a word.

00:25:00How utterly improper.

00:25:02Indeed, Master.

00:25:03You mustn't let her go

00:25:04so easily,

00:25:04lest people start gossiping

00:25:06behind our backs,

00:25:07saying the Shen family

00:25:08has no discipline.

00:25:09Stop!

00:25:11You think you can come

00:25:13and go as you please?

00:25:14What do you take

00:25:15the Shen residence for?

00:25:17In your eyes,

00:25:18everything I do

00:25:19is wrong anyway.

00:25:20I might as well leave

00:25:21so I'm no longer

00:25:22an eyesore to certain people.

00:25:24You want to leave?

00:25:24Fine.

00:25:25Unless you no-tow

00:25:26your way around

00:25:27all of Vermillion Bird Street

00:25:28on your knees,

00:25:29telling everyone

00:25:30that you married a beggar

00:25:31and brought shame

00:25:32upon the Shen family,

00:25:36and that you willingly

00:25:37choose to sever

00:25:38all ties

00:25:39with the Shen family.

00:25:40The Shen family.

00:25:41The Shen family.

00:25:44Greetings, your majesty.

00:25:46Greetings, your majesty.

00:25:48Mother.

00:25:50Didn't she faint?

00:25:52Could it be that she...

00:25:55So you still remember

00:25:56I'm your mother?

00:25:57All I asked

00:25:58was for you

00:25:59to choose a consort.

00:26:00Was that so hard for you?

00:26:01As the Emperor,

00:26:02you dared sneak out

00:26:03and cause trouble.

00:26:04The consort selection?

00:26:05You may decide, mother.

00:26:07Since you are well,

00:26:08I'll take my lead.

00:26:10You...

00:26:12Your majesty,

00:26:13the memorials

00:26:14have been piling up

00:26:14for days.

00:26:15If you delay any further,

00:26:16urgent matters may suffer.

00:26:17Please put state affairs

00:26:18first, your majesty.

00:26:20After reviewing them,

00:26:21you can still reach

00:26:22Shen residents in time.

00:26:24To the Imperial Study,

00:26:26Chao always thinks

00:26:27things through.

00:26:28Do as your sister says.

00:26:31Just because I married

00:26:32Chi Yu,

00:26:33you all have to

00:26:34humiliate me like this?

00:26:35You came home

00:26:36with no one

00:26:36to accompany you,

00:26:37no gifts to present.

00:26:39Asking you to pay respects

00:26:40is hardly unreasonable.

00:26:42Your sister thought

00:26:43of the Shen family,

00:26:44unlike you,

00:26:45who married a beggar

00:26:46and disgraced our family.

00:26:47What dignity?

00:26:48Only because

00:26:49Yun Kiao married

00:26:50into a wealthy family

00:26:51that you indulge her so.

00:26:53Insolent wretch,

00:26:54have I been too lenient

00:26:55with you

00:26:56these outrageous words

00:26:57who taught you

00:26:58to say them?

00:26:59Am I wrong?

00:27:01In your heart,

00:27:03daughters are merely pawns

00:27:04to curry favor

00:27:05with the powerful.

00:27:06How dare you

00:27:07speaking to your father

00:27:08like that?

00:27:12The Dragon Jade Pendant.

00:27:18No, I must inform

00:27:19his majesty at once.

00:27:23Give back my Jade Pendant.

00:27:26This Jade Pendant

00:27:27is of fine quality.

00:27:29Did you steal it

00:27:30from somewhere, sister?

00:27:31Chi Yu gave me this pendant.

00:27:32Give it back now.

00:27:33That filthy beggar?

00:27:35Then it's even less likely

00:27:37to be his.

00:27:37He must have stolen it

00:27:39from somewhere.

00:27:40A Dragon Emblazoned Pendant.

00:27:41How could it possibly

00:27:42appear here?

00:27:43Turns out I was mistaken.

00:27:45Chi Yu may not match

00:27:46your noble birth.

00:27:47Just because you own pendants

00:27:49as a matter of course,

00:27:50does that mean

00:27:50Chi Yu is unworthy?

00:27:53Guarding a beggar's trinket

00:27:54as though it were precious.

00:27:56Come to think of it,

00:27:57how strange.

00:27:58You've been out here

00:27:59for so long,

00:28:00yet your husband

00:28:00hasn't come looking for you.

00:28:02He doesn't seem to care,

00:28:04does he?

00:28:06Give me back the pendant.

00:28:08You can have it back,

00:28:09but first you must sever

00:28:11all ties with the Shen family.

00:28:13You father,

00:28:14will you let Shen Yun-Kel

00:28:15behave so brazenly?

00:28:16I am your daughter, too.

00:28:18You insisted on marrying a beggar

00:28:20and brought shame

00:28:21upon the Shen family.

00:28:22From now on,

00:28:23I, Shen Zhao,

00:28:25have only one daughter,

00:28:26and that is Xiao Er.

00:28:32All I ask in this life

00:28:33is to be with someone sincere.

00:28:36Even plain meals

00:28:37and simple living

00:28:38are better than enduring

00:28:40scorn in the Shen family.

00:28:43Very well, then.

00:28:45from this day forward.

00:28:49I, Shen Yun-King,

00:28:50sever all ties

00:28:51with 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

00:29:04never counted on you.

00:29:07Isn't that what you think, father?

00:29:08Why should I stay

00:29:09and suffer in the Shen family?

00:29:14Give me the pendant.

00:29:16Not so easy.

00:29:17Someone,

00:29:18bring the burning coals

00:29:19from the kitchen

00:29:20and lay them on the ground.

00:29:21What are you doing?

00:29:29Greetings, your majesty.

00:29:32Who sent you here?

00:29:33I am the daughter

00:29:34of the Grand Chancellor

00:29:35Zhao Shun,

00:29:36Xiao Wanner.

00:29:37The Dowager Empress

00:29:38sent me to attend

00:29:39to your majesty.

00:29:40I have state affairs

00:29:41to attend to.

00:29:42Leave.

00:29:43Your majesty,

00:29:44something terrible

00:29:45has happened.

00:29:46Her ladyship

00:29:46is 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,

00:29:54the Shens mistreated her.

00:29:56They forced her ladyship

00:29:57to 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

00:30:04to Shen residence.

00:30:05Sire, where are you going?

00:30:07The Dowager Empress said.

00:30:21Our body, hair, and skin

00:30:23are gifts from our parents.

00:30:24If you wish to sever ties,

00:30:26you must first repay

00:30:27the debt you owe them.

00:30:29Walk across

00:30:30and your wish shall be granted.

00:30:32No!

00:30:33The coals are burning

00:30:33so fiercely.

00:30:34Anyone who steps on them

00:30:36would never survive.

00:30:36I won't do it.

00:30:38Oh?

00:30:39It seems Elder Sister

00:30:40no longer wants

00:30:41the Jade Pendant.

00:30:42Don't throw it!

00:30:46Kiyu is the only person

00:30:47who ever truly cared for me.

00:30:49That pendant was left

00:30:50to him by his parents.

00:30:52I won't let his gift

00:30:53be desecrated.

00:30:55Fine.

00:30:56I'll walk.

00:31:20For the sake of a beggar,

00:31:22you'd actually go this far.

00:31:24You've truly lost your mind.

00:31:28A worthless Jade Pendant

00:31:30is enough for a pampered

00:31:31young lady to walk

00:31:32through hot coals.

00:31:33No wonder she'd marry a beggar.

00:31:36After all,

00:31:37a beggar has nothing

00:31:37of value to offer.

00:31:39No wonder Elder Sister

00:31:40treasures it so.

00:31:42I don't have much

00:31:43to offer you now.

00:31:44This Jade Pendant

00:31:45was 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

00:31:58Jade Pendant back.

00:32:07To you,

00:32:12I will get that Jade Pendant back.

00:32:17Now,

00:32:19can you return

00:32:21the Jade Pendant to me?

00:32:22You want it?

00:32:23Then you'll have to

00:32:24get it yourself.

00:32:25If you dare take it.

00:32:28This Jade Pendant

00:32:29is yours.

00:32:45She really does treasure it.

00:32:48She really does treasure it.

00:33:08Found it!

00:33:09Finally found it!

00:33:12You cherish so dearly

00:33:14your bond with that filthy beggar.

00:33:17If your face were ruined,

00:33:19would your beloved husband

00:33:21still want you?

00:33:22You!

00:33:23What are you doing

00:33:23glaring at me like that?

00:33:25I warned you long ago.

00:33:27Marrying a beggar

00:33:27leads to one fate

00:33:28being trampled underfoot.

00:33:30All you're scheming

00:33:31to torment me.

00:33:33Will it truly get you

00:33:34what you want?

00:33:40What I want

00:33:41is for you to spend

00:33:42the rest of your life

00:33:43hiding in the gutter.

00:33:44It's like a rex

00:33:46watching me become

00:33:47the most exalted woman

00:33:49in this world.

00:33:55Master! Master!

00:33:56His Majesty is here!

00:33:58What did you say?

00:33:59His Majesty!

00:34:02His Majesty!

00:34:16Shen Yun King!

00:34:18Shen Yun King!

00:34:27To you!

00:34:29Your Majesty!

00:34:35Shen Yun King!

00:34:37Shen Yun King!

00:34:38I'm sorry I'm late.

00:34:39Chi Yu!

00:34:41I didn't lose

00:34:42the Jade Pendant

00:34:43you gave me.

00:34:47Wasn't it supposed

00:34:48to be the Emperor?

00:34:49How can it be him?

00:34:51That filthy beggar

00:34:52can actually afford

00:34:53such lavish clothes!

00:34:55And these men,

00:34:56aren't they palace guards?

00:34:58Why would they follow

00:34:59a beggar?

00:35:00Mother,

00:35:00I heard that beggar's brother

00:35:02once held a post

00:35:02in the palace.

00:35:03How hard could it be

00:35:04to steal a few outfits?

00:35:05This beggar must be here

00:35:07because he lost face

00:35:07at the wedding last time

00:35:09and wants to save face.

00:35:10I heard there have been

00:35:11thefts in the palace.

00:35:12Could they be

00:35:13the ones behind it?

00:35:15What a joke!

00:35:16A filthy beggar

00:35:17dares put on a show

00:35:18at our Shen residence!

00:35:19Sister!

00:35:20Look at the fine

00:35:21husband you chose!

00:35:22Being useless

00:35:23is one thing,

00:35:23but now to save face?

00:35:25He has the audacity

00:35:26to steal from

00:35:26the Imperial Palace.

00:35:28If the Emperor

00:35:28finds out,

00:35:29will you even survive?

00:35:31Incorrigible fool!

00:35:32You're courting death!

00:35:37What?

00:35:38What are you gonna do?

00:35:39Shen Yun King

00:35:40was wrong.

00:35:41It hurts.

00:35:53Who did this?

00:35:55It was me.

00:35:55So what?

00:35:56I was only trying

00:35:56to help my dear sister.

00:35:58Who would have thought

00:35:59she'd walk barefoot

00:36:00over hot coals

00:36:01just for some

00:36:02worthless jade pendant?

00:36:03I can't fathom

00:36:05what goes on

00:36:05in that head of hers.

00:36:06Utterly stupid.

00:36:08Shut your mouth!

00:36:08Who do you think

00:36:09you are to shriek

00:36:10and holler before me?

00:36:11So what if I berate her?

00:36:13She's the one

00:36:13who married

00:36:14a useless wretch like you.

00:36:15Compared to me,

00:36:16Shen Yun King,

00:36:17you're nothing but ants.

00:36:19Even if I wanted

00:36:20her dead today,

00:36:21she should kneel

00:36:22and thank me for it.

00:36:23Let's see how long

00:36:24you keep up this charade.

00:36:25Seize him!

00:36:29No one lays a hand

00:36:31on what's mine.

00:36:32Seize them!

00:36:33Yes, sir!

00:36:39How dare you!

00:36:40I am the lady

00:36:41of the Morong residence!

00:36:44Husband, save me!

00:36:46You filthy beggar!

00:36:48You dare lay hands

00:36:48on my wife?

00:36:49You must have

00:36:50a death wish!

00:36:52Wretched fool!

00:36:53Young Master Morong

00:36:54is of royal blood.

00:36:55If you dare touch him,

00:36:57you make an enemy

00:36:58of all the Morongs.

00:37:00Royal blood?

00:37:01So what?

00:37:01Anyone who touches

00:37:02my people

00:37:03will meet nothing

00:37:04but death.

00:37:06You filthy beggar!

00:37:07You're overplaying

00:37:08your hand!

00:37:09Before I lose my temper,

00:37:11let go now

00:37:11and I might spare

00:37:12your life!

00:37:13You've tormented

00:37:14Shen Yun King

00:37:14to such a wretched state.

00:37:17Shove their faces

00:37:18into the burning coals!

00:37:19No, father!

00:37:20Let me go!

00:37:21Scower!

00:37:22Father, do something!

00:37:23You dare touch me?

00:37:25When the Ministry

00:37:26of Justice arrives,

00:37:27they won't let you off!

00:37:28Wait!

00:37:29You said the Ministry

00:37:31of Justice?

00:37:33Scared now, aren't you?

00:37:34My brother is a court official.

00:37:36If you harm me,

00:37:38you're as good as dead.

00:37:41I'd like to see

00:37:43exactly who

00:37:44in the Ministry

00:37:45of Justice

00:37:45would indulge

00:37:46scum like you

00:37:47to be so brazen.

00:37:48Press him down!

00:37:51Shower!

00:37:51Let me go!

00:37:52Let me go!

00:37:53You worthless wretch!

00:37:55Want to die?

00:37:55Don't drag the

00:37:56Shen family down!

00:37:58Stop!

00:38:05Brother!

00:38:06Save me!

00:38:08Get him!

00:38:23You curf!

00:38:24You tried to hurt

00:38:25my brother?

00:38:26Insolent!

00:38:27What if I am?

00:38:29That voice...

00:38:31You're...

00:38:36Quite the authority

00:38:37you wield,

00:38:38Minister of Justice.

00:38:41Your Majesty...

00:38:43Your Majesty!

00:38:47Your Majesty!

00:38:48This beggar?

00:38:49Impossible!

00:38:51Brother!

00:38:52Don't let this

00:38:53filthy beggar fool you!

00:38:54He stole from

00:38:55the Imperial Palace!

00:38:56These people

00:38:57were all bribed by him!

00:38:58You're new here!

00:38:59Mistakes are natural!

00:39:00But he really is

00:39:01just a filthy beggar,

00:39:02not the Emperor!

00:39:04Could I truly

00:39:05have been mistaken?

00:39:06I once got a glimpse

00:39:07from afar

00:39:08of His Majesty's profile.

00:39:10Perhaps they just

00:39:11look alike.

00:39:12His Majesty would

00:39:12never appear

00:39:13in a place like this.

00:39:14You wretched girl!

00:39:15Look at the fine

00:39:16husband you chose!

00:39:17Now you've provoked

00:39:18young Master Murak!

00:39:19Let's see how

00:39:20you get out of this!

00:39:21My lord!

00:39:21You must seek

00:39:22justice for us!

00:39:23That filthy beggar

00:39:24and Shen Yun-King

00:39:25have no regard

00:39:25for decency!

00:39:26They tried to

00:39:27murder their own kin!

00:39:29Outrageous!

00:39:29In the Imperial Capital

00:39:31such insolence

00:39:32won't be tolerated!

00:39:33Guards!

00:39:33Take them all

00:39:34and throw them

00:39:34into the Justice Dungeon!

00:39:36Interrogate them

00:39:36under torture!

00:39:38Hold on!

00:39:40What else

00:39:41do you have to say?

00:39:42I had no idea

00:39:42when you became

00:39:43the Deputy Minister

00:39:44of Justice.

00:39:45You're just

00:39:45a filthy beggar.

00:39:46How could you

00:39:47possibly know

00:39:48about court officials?

00:39:49My brother

00:39:50was appointed

00:39:50by the Dowager Empress.

00:39:52Regretting it now,

00:39:53are you?

00:39:53You even dare

00:39:54to deceive

00:39:55the Dowager Empress?

00:39:56The Murong family

00:39:57certainly has

00:39:57some nerve.

00:39:58Dowager Empress,

00:39:59you must

00:40:00seek justice

00:40:00for me!

00:40:01His Majesty

00:40:02married outside

00:40:03wed to the

00:40:03eldest daughter

00:40:04of the Shen family.

00:40:05For that woman's sake,

00:40:07His Majesty

00:40:07even laughed out

00:40:08at me!

00:40:09What?

00:40:09You're saying

00:40:10the Emperor

00:40:10actually married

00:40:11some woman

00:40:12outside the palace?

00:40:16Attendance!

00:40:18Prepare my

00:40:18palanquins!

00:40:21How dare you?

00:40:22You dare offend

00:40:23the Empress?

00:40:23How many heads

00:40:24do you have to spare?

00:40:25Lord Murong,

00:40:26please see reason.

00:40:27The Shen family

00:40:27has severed

00:40:28all ties

00:40:29with Shen Yun King.

00:40:30Whatever he said

00:40:30has nothing

00:40:31to do with us.

00:40:32My lord,

00:40:32the Shen family

00:40:33has always

00:40:34abided by the rules.

00:40:35We'd never dare

00:40:36malign the royals.

00:40:37We beg Lord Murong's

00:40:38fair judgment.

00:40:39Yes, my lord,

00:40:40please look into this.

00:40:41You filthy beggar!

00:40:42Offending royalty

00:40:42is a capital crime!

00:40:43My lord,

00:40:44you must not

00:40:45let him go!

00:40:45Shen Yun King,

00:40:46your husband

00:40:47committed a grave crime.

00:40:48No one can

00:40:49save you today.

00:40:50I cannot let

00:40:50Chi Yu come to harm.

00:40:53Have mercy,

00:40:54my lord.

00:40:54My husband

00:40:55was nearly

00:40:55confused for a moment.

00:40:59Shen Yun King,

00:41:02I'll take you

00:41:03to a physician now.

00:41:06Such audacity!

00:41:07You dare

00:41:07try to flee?

00:41:08Guards,

00:41:09stop them!

00:41:12Anyone who dares

00:41:13stand in the way

00:41:14will be killed

00:41:15on sight.

00:41:15Yes, my lord!

00:41:28you think leaving

00:41:29will be that easy?

00:41:30will be that easy?

00:41:41Shen Yun!

00:41:49Shen 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

00:41:56dared have someone

00:41:56disfigure me.

00:41:57did you really think

00:41:59I'd let you walk away

00:42:00so easily?

00:42:03Don't bother looking.

00:42:05Your men are too busy

00:42:07to save you now.

00:42:08You're asking for death!

00:42:12Chi Yu,

00:42:13I'm fine.

00:42:15Go now.

00:42:16Go.

00:42:17Can you really escape?

00:42:19Why won't you

00:42:20just leave me alone?

00:42:21I must say,

00:42:22you are truly blessed

00:42:23for your sister.

00:42:24Even married off

00:42:25to a beggar,

00:42:26you still win

00:42:27tree love.

00:42:27But the more that's so,

00:42:29the less I'll let you

00:42:30have your way.

00:42:31What lies between us

00:42:32should not involve

00:42:33the innocent.

00:42:34Do whatever you want

00:42:36to me.

00:42:37I beg you,

00:42:38let Chi Yu go.

00:42:42Shen Yun King!

00:42:45How touching!

00:42:46Even at a time like this,

00:42:48such devoted lovers

00:42:49you are.

00:42:50Since your bond

00:42:51runs so deep,

00:42:52I might as well

00:42:53send 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

00:43:21the Emperor?

00:43:27The physician!

00:43:29Fetch the physician!

00:43:29Quickly!

00:43:30Your Majesty,

00:43:31this servant

00:43:32deserves death!

00:43:33Silence!

00:43:37Shen Yun King!

00:43:38Ren Lu!

00:43:39Escort Yun King

00:43:40back to the palace

00:43:41for treatment.

00:43:42If anything happens

00:43:42to Shen Yun King,

00:43:43I will hold you

00:43:44responsible.

00:43:45Yes, Your Majesty.

00:43:54My son,

00:43:55your wound.

00:43:59Your Majesty!

00:44:02Impossible!

00:44:03How can he be

00:44:04the Emperor?

00:44:04I had it all figured out.

00:44:06Given a second life

00:44:07and I chose wrong again.

00:44:12Spare me,

00:44:13Your Majesty!

00:44:13Please!

00:44:14Your Majesty!

00:44:15Please forgive me!

00:44:16I was blind and foolish

00:44:17and hurt you by mistake!

00:44:20Your Majesty,

00:44:21everyone in the

00:44:21Shen residence

00:44:22has 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?

00:44:29Mercy,

00:44:30Your Majesty!

00:44:30I know my wrongs.

00:44:32When you were tormenting

00:44:33Shen Yun King,

00:44:34did you ever imagine

00:44:35this day would come?

00:44:37Hear my decree.

00:44:39Shen Zhao and his entire

00:44:40household are to be

00:44:41executed on the spot.

00:44:44My lady!

00:44:47Moronghi as a court official

00:44:49abused his authority

00:44:50and aided in tyranny.

00:44:53Immediately,

00:44:54he was stripped of his post

00:44:55as Deputy Minister of Justice

00:44:58and imprisoned

00:44:59alongside Morong An.

00:45:01Look down,

00:45:02Your Empress!

00:45:03I have committed

00:45:04a grave offense,

00:45:05but it was all

00:45:06the Shen family's doing.

00:45:08For my father's sake,

00:45:09I beg you,

00:45:10grant this guilty servant

00:45:11a chance to atone.

00:45:12Yes,

00:45:13yes,

00:45:14exactly!

00:45:14We beg the Dowager

00:45:15Empress for mercy!

00:45:16My son,

00:45:17though the two

00:45:17Morong family's sons

00:45:18are foolish,

00:45:19they were not

00:45:20the masterminds.

00:45:21Spare them this once

00:45:22and show leniency.

00:45:25But those two,

00:45:27as you wish,

00:45:28Mother.

00:45:36Shen Yun King,

00:45:36are you all right?

00:45:38Are you hurt?

00:45:39I'm fine.

00:45:40Lie back down.

00:45:41The physician said

00:45:42you shouldn't move

00:45:42with your wound.

00:45:43Physician?

00:45:45Why are we in the palace?

00:45:47The Dowager Empress

00:45:48saved us.

00:45:49The Dowager Empress?

00:45:54Mother!

00:45:55You wish to make

00:45:55Shen Yun King

00:45:56your Empress?

00:45:57I will never allow it.

00:45:58I have already

00:45:59pledged myself

00:46:00to Shen Yun King.

00:46:01Whether you consent

00:46:02or not,

00:46:02I will overcome

00:46:03any obstacle

00:46:04to make her my Empress.

00:46:05to you.

00:46:08Very well.

00:46:09I will find

00:46:10an opportunity

00:46:11to test Shen Yun King.

00:46:13If she passes my test,

00:46:14I will no longer

00:46:15stand in the way

00:46:16of your marriage.

00:46:18Thank you, Mother.

00:46:19Until then,

00:46:21you must not reveal

00:46:22your identity

00:46:23to Shen Yun King.

00:46:24Otherwise,

00:46:25I have plenty of ways

00:46:26to punish her.

00:46:28I shall remember.

00:46:30She left the palace

00:46:31to pray

00:46:31and passed

00:46:32by the Shen Estate.

00:46:33That's how she saved us.

00:46:35What about

00:46:35my father?

00:46:37The Dowager Empress

00:46:38ordered your sister

00:46:39and Murongan

00:46:39to receive 50 lashes.

00:46:41Murongan had long

00:46:42frequented pleasure houses

00:46:43so his body

00:46:43couldn't endure it

00:46:44and he fainted.

00:46:45She had no choice

00:46:46but to confine him.

00:46:47Your sister was sent

00:46:48to hard labor

00:46:49to 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,

00:47:03I'll protect you.

00:47:06I got a guard post

00:47:07from her.

00:47:07She placed you

00:47:08at the Bureau of Servants.

00:47:10From now on,

00:47:11we'll both serve

00:47:12in the palace.

00:47:13Good.

00:47:13Now that we both

00:47:14have positions,

00:47:15after three to five years

00:47:16of service,

00:47:17we'll leave the palace

00:47:18together and live

00:47:18an ordinary life.

00:47:20All right.

00:47:23Shen Yun King,

00:47:24I hope you can forgive me.

00:47:30This is the Bureau

00:47:32of Palace Servants.

00:47:34So where do you

00:47:35guards stay?

00:47:36We patrol all over

00:47:38the place.

00:47:39No fixed quarters.

00:47:42Don't worry.

00:47:43Whenever I'm free,

00:47:44I'll come visit you.

00:47:46All right.

00:47:57Visiting the Bureau

00:47:58without any advance notice?

00:48:01This is the new maid,

00:48:03Shen Yun King.

00:48:04In the days ahead,

00:48:05I must trouble

00:48:05Steward Lin

00:48:06to look after her.

00:48:09This is the Bureau's

00:48:10steward,

00:48:11Steward Lin.

00:48:12Go to her

00:48:12if you need anything.

00:48:14Greetings,

00:48:14Steward Lin.

00:48:15I see.

00:48:16Rest assured,

00:48:17I'll take good care

00:48:18of Shen Yun King.

00:48:20She's being far

00:48:20too gracious.

00:48:21I'm here to work.

00:48:22Why does it feel

00:48:23like I'm here

00:48:24to be a mistress?

00:48:25Perhaps she's

00:48:26just a kind person.

00:48:27That's good then.

00:48:28You won't be bullied

00:48:29at the Bureau.

00:48:30Shen Yun King,

00:48:31please follow me.

00:48:43Wash all of these clean.

00:48:45We both serve

00:48:46in the Bureau.

00:48:47I have no reason

00:48:48to do your laundry.

00:48:49How dare you even ask?

00:48:50You took my duties,

00:48:51so now I scrub

00:48:52chamber pots.

00:48:53some people

00:48:53who knows

00:48:54what tricks

00:48:54they use

00:48:55to get into the Bureau,

00:48:56since Steward Lin

00:48:57favors you so much,

00:48:58giving you

00:48:58all the easy work.

00:49:08Give it back!

00:49:11A dragon jade pendant.

00:49:13Only his majesty

00:49:14may to wear

00:49:14such a thing.

00:49:15Speak!

00:49:16Where did you steal this?

00:49:17What, his majesty?

00:49:18Give me back

00:49:19my pendant now!

00:49:21God notifies

00:49:22to have known at once.

00:49:23Yes.

00:49:40King Shen!

00:49:42You!

00:49:42I, I 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

00:49:59here before.

00:50:00I fear it may offend

00:50:01your sacred person.

00:50:02Allow this old servant

00:50:03to announce

00:50:04your arrival first.

00:50:05No means.

00:50:07I disguise myself

00:50:08as a senior attendant.

00:50:10Precisely to observe

00:50:11Shen Yun King

00:50:12as she truly is.

00:50:14If she were to learn

00:50:15my identity,

00:50:16it would only

00:50:16complicate matters.

00:50:19Palace rules are strict.

00:50:20I was only gone

00:50:21for a brief moment

00:50:22and you've already

00:50:23grown so brazen.

00:50:24What do you take

00:50:25this place for?

00:50:26Madam,

00:50:27she did it all.

00:50:30Shen Yun King

00:50:31stole his majesty's pendant.

00:50:32I caught her

00:50:33and fearing exposure,

00:50:34she actually tried

00:50:35to harm me.

00:50:36Theft is the gravest

00:50:37sin here

00:50:38than sticky fingers.

00:50:39Madam Lin,

00:50:40you must punish her severely.

00:50:41Madam,

00:50:42it's not what they say.

00:50:43Enough!

00:50:47Hand over the jade pendant.

00:50:51The jade pendant

00:50:52is my own.

00:50:53I said hand it over.

00:51:01A dragon emblazoned

00:51:03jade pendant.

00:51:04It really is

00:51:05his majesty's.

00:51:11Please judge fairly,

00:51:12Madam.

00:51:13I truly did not know

00:51:14it belonged to his majesty.

00:51:16Madam,

00:51:16please don't be deceived

00:51:17by her honeyed words.

00:51:18She dared to steal

00:51:19his majesty's jade pendant.

00:51:21Who knows what other

00:51:22audacious things

00:51:23she might do in the future.

00:51:25Palace rules clearly state

00:51:26that for theft of goods

00:51:27worth more than one chian,

00:51:29the left foot shall be severed

00:51:31and branding administered.

00:51:32I will thoroughly investigate

00:51:34this matter.

00:51:35Until the truth is established,

00:51:37the jade pendant

00:51:38shall remain in my custody.

00:51:39If you are truly innocent,

00:51:41I will see that justice is done.

00:51:44rise.

00:51:45Thank you, Madam.

00:51:48This is Madam Wang,

00:51:49the new steward.

00:51:50She will be working alongside me

00:51:52to manage the bureau.

00:51:53Madam Wang.

00:51:54All of you behave yourselves.

00:51:56Anyone caught shirking

00:51:58or scheming will be punished

00:51:59according to palace rules.

00:52:01Yes, Madam.

00:52:01The matter of you bullying

00:52:03your fellow servants

00:52:04is unresolved.

00:52:05Scrubbing the chamber pots

00:52:07is now your duty.

00:52:09You don't eat

00:52:10until you're done.

00:52:13Yes, Madam.

00:52:17And here I thought

00:52:18you had some real talent.

00:52:20So cunning and seductive,

00:52:21so good at seducing people,

00:52:23yet you still got punished.

00:52:26Let's see if you dare

00:52:28act so arrogant

00:52:29around us again.

00:52:46There, isn't that better?

00:52:51Your Majesty,

00:52:52Miss Zhao has come

00:52:53to the palace again today.

00:52:54Would you like to?

00:52:56No.

00:52:56Send her back

00:52:57where she came from.

00:52:58But...

00:52:59And you,

00:53:00I'm going to see Shen Yun King.

00:53:01If you keep following,

00:53:02won't that give me away?

00:53:03I'll take my leave at once.

00:53:07All done.

00:53:08Well done, Shen Yun King.

00:53:10Shen Yun King.

00:53:11Ji Yu,

00:53:12what 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.

00:53:22All right.

00:53:24By the way,

00:53:25the jade pendant you gave me,

00:53:26what's the story behind it?

00:53:28Why does everyone say

00:53:29it belongs to His Majesty?

00:53:32Well,

00:53:34my father once earned

00:53:36the title of Top Scholar

00:53:37to inspire future scholars.

00:53:39His Majesty bestowed

00:53:41the pendant upon him.

00:53:42That's how it came

00:53:42to our family.

00:53:43I see.

00:53:44No wonder they keep

00:53:45mentioning 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,

00:53:52I'll be on duty

00:53:53under His Majesty.

00:53:54I'll find time

00:53:55to come see you then.

00:53:56All right.

00:54:00Patrons,

00:54:00I finished washing

00:54:01all the chamber pots.

00:54:03Finished?

00:54:03Then sweep the entire

00:54:04back courtyard

00:54:05from end to end.

00:54:10Yes, ma'am.

00:54:15Finally done sweeping.

00:54:23How dare you

00:54:24throw away my things.

00:54:27Granny Wang

00:54:28gave the order herself.

00:54:29Deliver her medicine

00:54:30at dawn tomorrow.

00:54:32She also said

00:54:32the medicine must be

00:54:33brewed with morning dew.

00:54:35Stay outside tonight

00:54:36to 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

00:54:44single me out?

00:54:47After that

00:54:47jade pendant theft,

00:54:49Granny Wang

00:54:49didn't punish you.

00:54:50That was merciful enough.

00:54:52All she's asking

00:54:53is for you

00:54:53to collect morning dew.

00:54:55Be grateful.

00:54:56I never stole

00:54:56that jade pendant.

00:54:57Stop making

00:54:58false accusations.

00:55:00Not stolen?

00:55:01Then what,

00:55:01His Majesty

00:55:02personally gave it to you?

00:55:04I...

00:55:04Forget it.

00:55:06Why do I even bother

00:55:07explaining to you people?

00:55:08Who said you could go in?

00:55:10The night dew

00:55:10is heavy and cold.

00:55:11I'm getting my own blanket.

00:55:13You can't stop me.

00:55:14Such nerve.

00:55:14This is the palace.

00:55:16No yours or mine.

00:55:17Don't think

00:55:17Steward Lin 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 Unic Yuan Liu here?

00:55:35Could he be?

00:55:37You're all dead!

00:55:39You're...

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

00:55:52your identity

00:55:53to Shen Yun King.

00:55:56I meant no offense.

00:55:57I only saw someone

00:55:58was hurt

00:55:59and rushed forward

00:56:00to help.

00:56:00He's not the Emperor.

00:56:01Then why is Unic Yuan Liu

00:56:03show him such deference?

00:56:04Unic Yuan Liu,

00:56:05what on earth is going on?

00:56:09You've all misunderstood.

00:56:11This young guard

00:56:11bears some resemblance

00:56:12to His Majesty.

00:56:13So he was summoned

00:56:14to the palace

00:56:15for questioning.

00:56:16He's new

00:56:16and doesn't know the rules.

00:56:17Don't you know

00:56:18this bureau

00:56:18is not to be entered freely?

00:56:20Forgive me, Madam.

00:56:21It was all my fault.

00:56:22I shouldn't have quarreled

00:56:24with Yaochi

00:56:24and caused this

00:56:25young officer concern.

00:56:27Since you know

00:56:27you were wrong,

00:56:28off with you now.

00:56:30Thank you, Madam.

00:56:33Hmm.

00:56:35Your Majesty.

00:56:36Just now,

00:56:37I truly had

00:56:37no other choice.

00:56:41Go keep watch.

00:56:43Don't let the dowager

00:56:44blame,

00:56:45young king.

00:56:45Yes, sire.

00:56:48Unic Yuan Liu.

00:56:54Edward Lin.

00:56:56Is there anything else,

00:56:57Unic Yuan Liu?

00:56:59No, no, nothing.

00:57:04As for you...

00:57:08I wonder who's backing her

00:57:10and what their status

00:57:10really is.

00:57:12Consorting with a guard

00:57:13is a grave offense,

00:57:14yet Madam Wang

00:57:15only made her kneel.

00:57:17Now that you mention it,

00:57:19you're right.

00:57:20Even the matter

00:57:21of the stolen jade pendant

00:57:23was hushed up.

00:57:26Tell me,

00:57:26if the emperor

00:57:27found out

00:57:28someone stole

00:57:29his jade pendant,

00:57:31what would he do

00:57:32to her?

00:57:40I still worry

00:57:41the dowager

00:57:42will blame

00:57:43Shen Yun King.

00:57:45Then perhaps

00:57:46I should.

00:57:48Your Majesty,

00:57:49a maid

00:57:50seeks audience

00:57:50outside the study.

00:58:21Mike!

00:58:22My face.

00:58:25You stupid fool.

00:58:26What did you put in that bowl?

00:58:28I got this recipe from a Taoist.

00:58:30He said that after consuming it,

00:58:32it would beautify the skin.

00:58:35I only meant well for you, Auntie Wong.

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!

00:58:58Drag her away and sell her off to a slave trader.

00:59:02Please spare me, Auntie.

00:59:11Auntie Wong.

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.

00:59:28His 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,

00:59:46I wouldn't dare seduce His Majesty!

00:59:50Now I remember!

00:59:51Yes!

00:59:52Someone at the Bureau has that kind of nerve!

00:59:55Shen Yun King,

00:59:57if 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,

01:00:08and the rash on your face will disappear.

01:00:12It does look a bit unsightly,

01:00:14but the rash does seem to be fading away.

01:00:17You do have some skill.

01:00:20Thank you for the kind words.

01:00:30Thank you.

01:00:32If it weren't for you today,

01:00:35you can hit me or scold me,

01:00:36I'll take it all.

01:00:38Why would I scold you?

01:00:41You're willing to forgive me?

01:00:42You'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.

01:00:57Shen 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,

01:01:27no wonder she can't behave herself.

01:01:29It's one thing for His Majesty to find a bride outside,

01:01:32but since when?

01:01:34Who the likes of you?

01:01:35You lowly wretches dare to harbor such impudent thoughts?

01:01:44When did Shen Yun King ever seduce His Majesty?

01:01:49Jingxian,

01:01:51have 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,

01:02:09that 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.

01:02:19You brainless fool!

01:02:20How dare you provoke Miss Zhao!

01:02:23As the Chancellor's daughter,

01:02:25Miss Zhao must be reasonable.

01:02:26I never seduced His Majesty.

01:02:28I truly haven't.

01:02:29Please, my lady, have mercy on us.

01:02:31Let you go?

01:02:34According to Yaochi,

01:02:35not only did you try to seduce His Majesty,

01:02:37you didn't even spare the guards.

01:02:39I did no such thing!

01:02:41Flash 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

01:02:59dares to raise her voice before me?

01:03:03You!

01:03:03How dare you!

01:03:05Miss Zhao!

01:03:05The palace!

01:03:06Answer 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.

01:03:22Dealing 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,

01:03:32you'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!

01:03:41I was truly blind!

01:03:44I was truly blind!

01:03:49I 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!

01:04:08You could only enter the palace as slaves!

01:04:12Defying your masters is asking for death!

01:04:15You...

01:04:15Bring me my whip!

01:04:18As the steward of the Bureau of Palace Servants,

01:04:21you allowed a servant to seduce his majesty.

01:04:24Leading others astray,

01:04:26your 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

01:04:57and 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.

01:05:17Ha ha ha ha!

01:05:20How touching.

01:05:21Since you so enjoy playing the martyr,

01:05:23I shall grant your wish.

01:05:25Enough, Zalwander!

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

01:05:34on behalf of the Dowager Empress.

01:05:36Stop!

01:05:41Your majesty!

01:05:43Zalwander, do you know who it is

01:05:44you 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?

01:06:03The Dowager Empress was merely testing you all,

01:06:06yet you, so arrogant and presumptuous,

01:06:09dare to offend the 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!

01:06:21I 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!

01:06:38You...

01:06:40Your majesty!

01:06:41You still won't admit fault?

01:06:42I 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,

01:06:54and 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,

01:07:01how 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 Jingxiang, how dare you betray me!

01:07:16Enough!

01:07:19The 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, Dowager 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!

01:07:39So, you are the Shen family's eldest!

01:07:53Shhh...

01:07:55Shen Yun King

01:07:57Shen Yun

01:07:59The dowager didn't punish you?

01:08:01Of course not

01:08:02She discussed the spring banquet with me

01:08:04Asking 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

01:08:18Hmm

01:08:21So then may I tell her the truth?

01:08:22And about making her empress?

01:08:25There's no rush for that

01:08:26The 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

01:08:44We let Shen Yun King organize the spring banquet

01:08:47If she can manage the banquet well

01:08:50It will not only prove her capability

01:08:52But also justify

01:08:54Crowning her empress

01:08:55The dowager wants you to run the spring festival banquet

01:09:00Me?

01:09:01But I don't know how to do any of this

01:09:04Don't worry

01:09:04With your talent

01:09:06You'll manage just fine

01:09:07I'll help you behind the scenes

01:09:17Move it all of you

01:09:18Anyone caught slacking off

01:09:20My whip doesn't have eyes

01:09:26Useless

01:09:27Still think you're some young lady?

01:09:28In the discipline office

01:09:29Nobody gets to slack off on my watch

01:09:40Jen Yun King, this is all your fault!

01:09:43Get in!

01:09:43Don't touch me!

01:09:44I'm the prime minister's daughter

01:09:46You'd better show me some respect

01:09:48The prime minister's daughter

01:09:50In my past life

01:09:52Murongan rose at the spring banquet

01:09:54By the dowager empress

01:09:55If I can escape this wretched place

01:09:57And find a way to get Murongan

01:09:58To the spring banquet

01:09:59I 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

01:10:15You wouldn't even be worthy of speaking to me!

01:10:21My sister Shen Yun King is the reason I'm locked up here!

01:10:24If you're willing to help me escape

01:10:26I'll repay you with everything I have!

01:10:29Shen Yun King

01:10:33Not bad

01:10:34The banquet arrangements are clear and well organized

01:10:37One 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!

01:10:49The 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

01:11:12Nearly half the people didn't make it out

01:11:14Could it be that Jalwana 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

01:11:28I've learned my lesson!

01:11:30Please lift my punishment!

01:11:32This place, I truly cannot bear another day!

01:11:34Very well

01:11:35With your temperament?

01:11:37The discipline office serves no purpose anyway

01:11:40I also wish to ask your majesty to grant Shen Yun Kiao a reward

01:11:44I survived this ordeal only because Shen Yun Kiao risked her life to save me

01:11:49I recall that Shen Yun Kiao and Shen Yun King are sisters

01:11:52How do you think I should reward her?

01:11:55Yun Tao is indeed my sister

01:11:56But the two of us have seldom been close

01:11:58We share no deep bond

01:11:59As 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

01:12:12She has been in the discipline office long enough

01:12:15And 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

01:12:22Jalwana, though I have lifted your punishment

01:12:25I never said you were free to go

01:12:27Next month, the marriage alliance with Liao

01:12:30Shall 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

01:12:43Return 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

01:12:55You made me suffer endlessly through every torment

01:12:58I will settle this score with you in time

01:13:00It's only been a moment and you've already forgotten your pain

01:13:04If you hadn't insisted on crossing me

01:13:06How 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 axe, weren't you with his majesty?

01:13:23Shen Yun King

01:13:24Shen Yun King, the Dowager Empress wants you gone

01:13:27She 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

01:13:39I'm cooped up here every day

01:13:41One of these days

01:13:42I'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

01:13:49And I wouldn't have lost my position

01:13:52If you ask me, it's all that wretch Yun Kiao's fault

01:13:54Husband

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

01:14:09Why 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

01:14:29How 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

01:14:39The spring banquet?

01:14:40Our Murang family is on the guest list too

01:14:42Then 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

01:15:09Plenty more in the palace

01:15:11Only because our seats are so remote this time

01:15:13That 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

01:15:24I have something to tell you

01:15:26Alright

01:15:27I'll be right here waiting

01:15:35Husband, look

01:15:39Shen 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

01:16:07Forgotten 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

01:16:16Not 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

01:16:29Honored guests

01:16:30You are nothing but a servant

01:16:32If 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 King

01:16:47Haven't you done enough to ruin me?

01:16:51As long as you suffer

01:16:52I'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

01:17:04Greetings, your majesty, the dowager empress

01:17:14Greetings, dowager empress

01:17:19Shen Yun King

01:17:20You've worked hard organizing the palace banquet

01:17:27It is my duty

01:17:28I don't find it hard at all

01:17:29Dowager empress

01:17:31I 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

01:17:38Shen 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

01:17:57In 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

01:18:42Her merits offset her fault

01:18:44No

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?

01:19:08First, 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

01:19:25And 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

01:19:32But

01:19:36What is it?

01:19:37You've done a great service this time

01:19:38The nobles all praised the spring banquets

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

01:19:48Who?

01:19:52Assassin!

01:19:54Protect 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

01:20:03The assassin escaped

01:20:05What?

01:20:08Take her away

01:20:11What are you doing?

01:20:12The empress was attacked

01:20:13We have orders to arrest Shen Yun King

01:20:16For questioning at the court

01:20:27I, Shen Yun King, greet the prime minister

01:20:29Prime minister Zhao

01:20:30She was in charge of the banquet

01:20:31Is her

01:20:32The palace is heavily guarded

01:20:34No one could get in easily

01:20:35Shen Yun King must have colluded with the assassin

01:20:38The one who sent Wanar 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

01:20:46What were you scheming?

01:20:48Everyone I arranged was verified

01:20:50As for how an assassin got in

01:20:51I 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

01:20:57You met secretly with a guard

01:20:59Whispering intimately

01:21:00You had no time to care for the empress' safety

01:21:02What?

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!

01:21:17Is it him?

01:21:20Yes, that's him

01:21:28Lord Chancellor, they've been brought in

01:21:32T.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 hands

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

01:21:53Whether or not she sent the assassin?

01:21:56The dowager's safety was at risk

01:21:57She 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

01:22:19She endangered the dowager

01:22:21Both shall be executed immediately

01:22:23Lord Chancellor, please withdraw this order

01:22:28Chi Yu

01:22:31I'm sorry for dragging you into this

01:22:33Shen Yun King

01:22:34Let's see how you get out of this one

01:22:41I'd like to see who dares lay a hand on her

01:22:45Your... your 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

01:23:20Seizing me and bringing me here was your idea

01:23:23Seeing the dowager in danger

01:23:24I acted out of urgency

01:23:26I didn't know the one with my sister was your majesty

01:23:28Please 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

01:23:35You have apposed Shen Yun King at every turn

01:23:38Had I not been here today

01:23:39You would have had your way

01:23:41No

01:23:41I never intended to harm my sister

01:23:43I was truly worried about the dowager's health

01:23:46And lost my composure

01:23:47Chancellor Zhao, you know this

01:23:49I 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

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

01:24:12Please order immediately her imprisonment and thorough interrogation

01:24:16The chancellor speaks rightly

01:24:18Had my husband not been present today, the dowager empress might not have survived

01:24:22Your 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

01:24:32How 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, what 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, I am willing to suffer the same punishment as she?

01:25:02Very well

01:25:03Guards, bring them in

01:25:09Your majesty is wise

01:25:11By your majesty's command, this 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... it's over

01:25:30Zhao Xun

01:25:31Do not think I am unaware you did this for your daughter, Zhao Waner

01:25:34Since you wanted Shen Yun King dead, I will not let you live either

01:25:38Guards

01:25:38Take it!

01:25:39Your majesty, I have served Great Xie 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

01:25:55Three months' salary shall be docked

01:25:57Should this happen again, I will show no leniency

01:26:00We thank your majesty for his mercy

01:26:02As for you two

01:26:03Mercy, your majesty

01:26:05It was all Shen Yun Kiao

01:26:06It was her wretched idea

01:26:08You're lying, your majesty

01:26:09I 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

01:26:30Mercy, your majesty

01:26:32Mercy, your majesty

01:26:33Mercy

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

01:26:51If she were simply put to death, she'd be getting off easy

01:26:55Shen Yun King, how dare you do this to me?

01:26:57I hate you

01:26:58If not for you, I should be the one enjoying all of this

01:27:02You'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

01:27:09Very well

01:27:11Shen Yun Kiao shall be made a lowly slave

01:27:13Vanish to Southern Prefecture

01:27:14Never to set foot in the capital again

01:27:17No, I won't go

01:27:18I 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

01:27:28So what is your majesty's true name?

01:27:32Hong Yu

01:27:34Hong Yu
