Short filmTranscript
00:00:00Lady Ellora Thor, known for her gentle virtue and diligent service, is hereby conferred the title of Countess.
00:00:08So decreed.
00:00:09Long live the King!
00:00:14Sister!
00:00:27Little sister? Why?
00:00:30Don't call me sister! You don't deserve it! We're both the Vox Daughters. Why do you get everything?
00:00:35If only Lord Lucian had caught my wreath three years ago, this should have all been mine!
00:00:40The glory and wealth you crave are nothing but an illusion.
00:00:46Go fuck yourself!
00:00:57Given another chance, I would gladly give up all these honors.
00:01:05My lord, word has spread throughout the city. Upon hearing the Vox Daughters are to choose a husband, many noble
00:01:10young lords are rushing here.
00:01:13Today, the House of Vox shall choose a suitor by wreath toss. Whoever catches my daughter's weeds shall have her
00:01:18hand in marriage.
00:01:19Lady Vox, toss it to me!
00:01:21House Vox's son-in-law must be of noble birth. You and Serafina must choose wisely when casting the wreath,
00:01:26but whoever marries well will be the fan bride.
00:01:28I've been reborn back to the day of wreath super-selection three years ago.
00:01:32My lady, it's time to toss your wreath.
00:01:37Aldia, let me first.
00:01:38In my past life, Serafina hesitated and begged me to go first. Why is she acting like this now? It
00:01:44seems Serafina has been reborn too.
00:01:48This time, only I shall wed Lucian.
00:01:55Where is Lucian, the second son of House Thorne?
00:01:57The Thorne family are distant relatives of the royal house. We shall be linked to the crown!
00:02:02This time, I finally changed my fate. In three years, Lucian will be granted a title, and I shall be
00:02:06a noble countess.
00:02:08Serafina, all your clever schemes have only landed you in the Thorne family's deadly trap.
00:02:14Ha ha ha ha! Excellent! Serafina has made the family proud!
00:02:21Papa, you flatter me. I only act for our family. Once I become Lady Thorne, I shall bring great glory
00:02:29to our house.
00:02:30Isn't that right, Elder Sister?
00:02:32You're truly blessed, little sister. I truly rejoice for you.
00:02:36Alara, I've stolen your good fortune. I will never live in your shadow again in this life.
00:02:49Wait, isn't that-
00:02:51Your Majesty! Your Majesty!
00:02:54My Lord, if Her Highness learns you've left the palace dressed like this-
00:02:58My mother keeps pressuring me to choose my queen. I had to sneak out for some peace and experience life
00:03:02as an ordinary man.
00:03:08Come, let us see.
00:03:14In my past life, this peasant stole my wreath. I ran away from my marriage and suffered terribly.
00:03:20Today, I'll make him feel what it's like to be cast aside by his own blood!
00:03:26My Lord, now that we're allied with House Thorne, Alara cannot settle for just any suitor.
00:03:35Mama, Sister has always been blessed with luck. She'd never bring shame to Papa. I'm certain she'll choose the finest
00:03:42husband there is.
00:03:46Power and wealth are all fleeting. In this life, I only want a good man by my side and a
00:03:52peaceful life.
00:04:04Why him?
00:04:09He's the commoner Serafina refused to marry in her previous life.
00:04:13Good heavens! Of all people, why did a peasant catch your wreath?
00:04:18Sister, what awful luck is this? After all that, you choose a peasant. How's Papa supposed to hold his head
00:04:25up?
00:04:28Useless girl! With everyone watching, you throw your wreath to a peasant!
00:04:33You wanted to shame me and our family, didn't you?
00:04:35Well, it's done! Don't be upset, Sister. He's low-born, but decent-looking.
00:04:41Yet you've been spoiled all your life. With him, you'll have to work for everything now.
00:04:47This will be good. Is the eldest Miss Vos really going to marry a peasant?
00:04:52Everyone's watching! If she doesn't marry him, House Vos will lose all credibility! Who'll do business with them after this?
00:05:02Seize her! Don't let her get away!
00:05:04My lord, how come you have the wreath? Throw it away at once!
00:05:09I'm dressed so ragged, she'll never agree to marry me.
00:05:17Sister, why are you running? You threw the wreath yourself. No one forced you.
00:05:21Look at this peasant you brought upon us!
00:05:24If he becomes Vox's son-in-law, our family's name is ruined!
00:05:27In my past life, I struggled in the Thorn House, used as a pawn by House Vos to climb the
00:05:33nobility.
00:05:34Now, I'd rather marry a commoner and live in peace.
00:05:37The wreath has chosen its match. Even if you don't want to, you must!
00:05:41I will marry him.
00:05:51I am Alara. What's yours?
00:05:56I'm...
00:05:57Sion.
00:06:07With everyone here as my witness, I, Alara, will marry Sion.
00:06:19You truly want to be my wife?
00:06:22What else?
00:06:23The wreath is yours now.
00:06:26Are you backing out?
00:06:29I just...
00:06:30What?
00:06:31I'm not backing out.
00:06:33But I have nothing.
00:06:36Marry me and you'll have no home, no proper food.
00:06:38Do you still want to?
00:06:39We're able-bodied. We can earn what we need.
00:06:42Get a little more serious about work and you'll have no trouble getting by.
00:06:46I've never met a woman so easily contented.
00:06:48A filthy peasant and you treat him like something precious?
00:06:52Alara, think carefully.
00:06:56Marry a peasant and you ruin your life.
00:07:00Status doesn't make a future.
00:07:02Character does.
00:07:04Sion may be poorly dressed, but he's polite.
00:07:06He could well be a good match.
00:07:08And he doesn't seem to care what other people think.
00:07:11He's not afraid to speak his mind and he's kind to the servants.
00:07:14You! The wreath chose him.
00:07:16Don't go back on your word now.
00:07:19Aye, break the rules and you'll lose all respect.
00:07:21The eldest Miss Vos has to marry him.
00:07:23Marry him! Marry him! Marry him!
00:07:26If you're so set on this, don't you ever blame the Vos family.
00:07:30You'll have no part in our glory from now on.
00:07:33I understand, Father.
00:07:36The selection is over. You may all leave.
00:07:41Sister, don't say I didn't warn you.
00:07:44Marry a peasant and you'll always be beneath me.
00:07:47You'd better worry about yourself first.
00:07:50Life with the Thorns won't be as easy as you think.
00:07:56You-
00:07:57Come to the Vos' sate in three days to ask for my hand.
00:08:00I'd just be pushed into choosing a consort if I return to the palace.
00:08:04Very well. I'll be there.
00:08:10On the day of the younger Miss Vos' wedding, her dowry includes a golden jeweled crown, twelve sets of lace
00:08:17satin gowns, and three deeds for vineyards and wineries on the outskirts of the imperial capital.
00:08:26The younger Miss Vos has a priceless dowry, while the elder Miss Vos has nothing at all.
00:08:32What a huge difference between the two Vos daughters.
00:08:38Sister, if you really marry a beggar, you'll toil for the rest of your life.
00:08:43I wonder if you'll ever get used to it.
00:08:48The groom is here!
00:08:51It's the groom!
00:09:01Truly the younger Master Thorn. What a grand wedding procession.
00:09:05The Thorn family is so powerful. The younger Miss Vos will live in luxury, unlike the elder Miss Vos, who
00:09:11married a beggar and will suffer for the rest of her days.
00:09:14Mr. Vos, Mrs. Vos, my best regards to you both.
00:09:18That's a good lad. Rise, Lucian.
00:09:20My dear boy, your wedding procession is the grandest sight in the entire imperial capital.
00:09:28It is the Vos family's great honour that our Seraphina is so cherished by you.
00:09:33Sister, the austratious hour has almost passed. Where is your husband? Could it be he's too afraid to come?
00:09:47What is he doing? He can't be serious.
00:09:50I humbly greet you, my lord.
00:09:56My lady.
00:10:05My lady.
00:10:07Has he come to beg or to wed?
00:10:10Showing up dressed like this is nothing but a disgrace.
00:10:12Compared to Lord Lucian, it's like heaven versus earth.
00:10:16What on earth are you wearing? In front of all these nobles, you're humiliating me.
00:10:21It's our sister's wedding day, yet you show up dressed like this. You're utterly pathetic.
00:10:26Sister, don't you feel ashamed?
00:10:29Marriage is about sincerity, not looks. The man I Allara have chosen cannot be swayed by others' idle words of
00:10:36others.
00:10:37Aren't you ashamed enough?
00:10:39My lord, calm your anger. Once Allara steps through this door today, she will have nothing to do with our
00:10:45Vos family ever again.
00:10:47The auspicious hour for the wedding has arrived. The bride shall board the carriage.
00:11:01Your majesty.
00:11:06My lord! Congratulations. Your noble son-in-law is quite remarkable. Lord Chamberlain. Please come in.
00:11:16Did you truly walk here? On such a joyous day, you would make your bride walk back with you. I
00:11:22have never heard of such a thing.
00:11:24Truly. Unlike my husband...
00:11:30My lady, I've come to take you home.
00:11:45Before those who love you, I ask you both to speak your vows.
00:11:53Sian, do you take Allara to be your wife? To love and protect her for all your days?
00:11:58I do.
00:11:59Allara, do you take Sian to be your husband? To stand by him and trust him for all your days?
00:12:06I do.
00:12:10Is this the place you arranged for me?
00:12:14This place is far too shabby.
00:12:17Can anyone actually live here?
00:12:19Your majesty, this is simply to keep your identity hidden.
00:12:25Vows have been spoken. From this day forward, you are husband and wife.
00:12:32My lady, I apologize for forcing you to live in such humble quarters.
00:12:37I am not troubled at all. This place is peaceful and sheltered.
00:12:42If we keep it clean and tidy from now on, it will grow ever more warm and cozy.
00:12:53I have little of value to offer now.
00:12:55This pendant was left to me by my father, and I have carried it always.
00:12:59Now I give it to you.
00:13:00Such a precious thing.
00:13:02And you give it to me?
00:13:09You may rest assured. I will keep it safe.
00:13:26Your majesty...
00:13:27Your majesty...
00:13:30Who are they?
00:13:32The royal court is far too complicated.
00:13:34I'll tell Alita about my identity once everything is settled.
00:13:38They're...
00:13:39They're here for Felix.
00:13:41He once served in the palace.
00:13:42And these are old acquaintances.
00:13:55Alara, I need to help Felix receive his guests.
00:13:58Will you be all right going to buy a loan?
00:14:04Alright.
00:14:14Speak. What is the matter?
00:14:16The queen dowager is deeply troubled for you, your majesty.
00:14:19She has suddenly fainted.
00:14:20What?
00:14:21Felix, stay here and protect Alara.
00:14:24Return to the palace with me.
00:14:28Send someone to select valuable gifts for the Vos estate,
00:14:32saying they are Alara's presents for her family visit.
00:14:36Yes, your majesty. Let us go.
00:14:40Father! Mother! Your daughter has returned!
00:14:46Sister!
00:14:48Why have you come back alone?
00:14:53Your majesty...
00:14:57Who are they?
00:14:59The royal court is far too complicated.
00:15:02I'll tell Alita about my identity once everything is settled.
00:15:06They're...
00:15:06They're here for Felix.
00:15:08He once served in the palace.
00:15:09And these are old acquaintances.
00:15:11That is not a mess.
00:15:17Of course.
00:15:20How do I come back home?
00:15:22Ela, I need to help Felix receive his guests.
00:15:25Will you be all right going to buy a loan?
00:15:31All right.
00:15:41Speak. What is the matter?
00:15:43The Queen Dowger is deeply troubled for you, Your Majesty.
00:15:46She has suddenly fainted.
00:15:47What?
00:15:48Felix, stay here and protect Alera.
00:15:51Return to the palace with me.
00:15:55Send someone to select valuable gifts for the Vos Estate,
00:15:59saying they are Alera's presents for her family visit.
00:16:03Yes, Your Majesty. Let us go.
00:16:07Father! Mother! Your daughter has returned.
00:16:13Sister!
00:16:15Why have you come back alone?
00:16:19My lord, which powerful noble has the elder Ms. Vos won over?
00:16:24The steward from the palace sent me here personally.
00:16:26You must have great influence indeed.
00:16:31That was sent by the king himself.
00:16:33The king's own steward gave the order personally.
00:16:39This is for the elder Mrs. Vos.
00:16:45Mr. Morea, you must be mistaken.
00:16:49Everyone in the capital knows Alamra married a peasant.
00:16:52How could she have ties to the palace?
00:16:54This gift must surely be sent in honor of the younger Master Thorn.
00:16:58Quite right.
00:16:59Plenty of people across the realm seek to curry favor with House Thorn,
00:17:02even those in the palace.
00:17:03Please accept this, my lord.
00:17:05Serafina has truly married well.
00:17:07Just look at this grand homecoming and all these fine gifts.
00:17:11They honor the House of Vos.
00:17:12Yes, I have delivered the gifts.
00:17:14I shall take my leave, my lord.
00:17:17Farewell, Mr. Morea.
00:17:20Sister, my lord has brought such fine gifts.
00:17:23Aren't you ashamed to stand there beside them?
00:17:27It's not the value that matters, but the sincerity.
00:17:30I see nothing wrong with what I've done.
00:17:33I spared no effort raising you.
00:17:35And this is how you repay me.
00:17:38Marrying a peasant and insulting me with these trickets!
00:17:43House Vos has no place for a daughter as worthless as you!
00:17:48Is this why you humiliate me so?
00:17:49Simply because I married Kale?
00:17:51Seria thinks of the family.
00:17:52You've only shamed House Vos by marrying a peasant!
00:17:55What honor!
00:17:56You only favor her because she married a nobleman.
00:17:59To you, your daughters are nothing but pawns to climb higher!
00:18:02How dare you speak to me like this!
00:18:12The Royal Eagle Pendant!
00:18:17My lord, which powerful noble has the elder Ms. Vos won over?
00:18:22The steward from the palace sent me here personally.
00:18:24You must have great influence indeed.
00:18:29That was sent by the king himself.
00:18:31The king's own steward gave the order personally.
00:18:37This is for the elder Mrs. Vos.
00:18:43Mr. Morea, you must be mistaken.
00:18:47Everyone in the capital knows Elamra married a peasant.
00:18:50How could she have ties to the palace?
00:18:52This gift must surely be sent in honor of the younger Master Thorn.
00:18:56Quite right.
00:18:56Plenty of people across the realm seek to curry favor with House Thorn.
00:19:00Even those in the palace.
00:19:01Please accept this, my lord.
00:19:03Serafina has truly married well.
00:19:06Just look at this grand homecoming and all these fine gifts.
00:19:09They honor the House of Vos.
00:19:11I have delivered the gifts.
00:19:12I shall take my leave, my lord.
00:19:15Farewell, Mr. Morea.
00:19:18Sister, my lord has brought such fine gifts.
00:19:22Aren't you ashamed to stand there beside them?
00:19:25It's not the value that matters, but the sincerity.
00:19:29I see nothing wrong with what I've done.

00:19:57To you, your daughters are nothing but pawns to climb higher.
00:20:00How dare you speak to me like this!
00:20:11The Royal Eagle Pendant!
00:20:25Now, can you give me the pendant back?
00:20:28Want it?
00:20:30Then crawl for it.
00:20:32As long as you crawl,
00:20:35the pendant is yours.
00:20:48Look at you.
00:20:49This pendant is left with me by my father,
00:20:51and I have carried it always.
00:20:53Now I give it to you.
00:20:54You may rest assured.
00:20:56I will keep it safe.
00:21:13I will keep it safe.
00:21:17I will keep it safe.
00:21:25You cherish your relationship with that peasant so much.
00:21:28If your face is disfigured,
00:21:30will your beloved husband still want you?
00:21:33You!
00:21:34Why are you glaring at me?
00:21:36I've long said it.
00:21:38Marry a peasant,
00:21:40and you'll end up being trampled on!
00:21:43You go to such lengths to torment me.
00:21:45Do you really think you'll get what you want?
00:21:48I want you to live in the gutter for the rest of your life.
00:21:52Watching me become the most noble woman in the world.
00:22:06Behold the king!
00:22:13What?
00:22:15Who dares to touch my wife?
00:22:30Now,
00:22:31can you give me the pendant back?
00:22:34Want it?
00:22:36Then crawl for it.
00:22:37As long as you crawl,
00:22:40the pendant is yours.
00:22:53Look at you.
00:22:55This pendant is left by me by my father,
00:22:57and I have carried it always.
00:22:59Now I give it to you.
00:23:00You may rest assured.
00:23:01I will keep it safe.
00:23:23I will keep it safe.
00:23:31You cherish your relationship with that peasant so much.
00:23:34If your face is disfigured,
00:23:36will your beloved husband still want you?
00:23:39You!
00:23:40Why are you glaring at me?
00:23:42I've long said it.
00:23:44Marry a peasant,
00:23:46and you'll end up being trampled on!
00:23:48You go to such lengths to torment me.
00:23:51Do you really think you'll get what you want?
00:23:54I want you to live in the gutter for the rest of your life.
00:23:58Watching me become the most noble woman in the world.
00:24:11Behold the king!
00:24:20Who dares to touch my wife?
00:24:27Your majesty, Miss Alara is in danger at House Vos.
00:24:36You were raised by House Vos.
00:24:38If you wish to sever ties,
00:24:40you must first repay our kindness.
00:24:42My lady, you speak truly.
00:24:45Looking at you now,
00:24:46you have nothing of value to offer.
00:24:48You shall walk across these coals barefoot instead.
00:24:51These coals burn so fiercely.
00:24:54How could anyone survive that?
00:24:55I will not.
00:25:01Oh?
00:25:03So it seems you no longer want this pendant.
00:25:06Don't throw it!
00:25:09Kale is the only one who has ever truly cared for me.
00:25:12This pendant belonged to his father.
00:25:14I cannot let his gift be disgraced.
00:25:18I'll do it.
00:25:19I'll walk.
00:25:30For a peasant you would go this far?
00:25:34You've lost your mind!
00:25:35All this for a worthless trinket.
00:25:37Even the privileged elder Miss Vos would walk across fire.
00:25:40No wonder she was foolish enough to marry a peasant.
00:25:43A peasant has little of worth.
00:25:45This pendant must be his most prized possession.
00:25:48No wonder you cling to it, sister.
00:25:50This pendant was left to me by my father and I have carried it always.
00:25:54Now I give it to you.
00:25:59My lady, wait for me.
00:26:02Kale, rest assured, I will get the pendant back.
00:26:10Kale, rest assured, I will get the pendant back.
00:26:11Laura, I'm sorry.
00:26:13I'm late.
00:26:16Kale...
00:26:18I didn't lose your pendant.
00:26:22I was told the king was coming.
00:26:24Why is it him?
00:26:25This peasant, dressed so finely, are these men royal guards?
00:26:29Why do they obey him?
00:26:31Mother, I heard his brother serves in the palace.
00:26:34Borrowing fine clothes is nothing.
00:26:37He must be putting on a show after being shamed at the wedding.
00:26:40Ridiculous!
00:26:41A peasant dares to put on a show in Vos manor.
00:26:44Sister, your husband is already pathetic, yet you dare steal royal treasures.
00:26:50If the king learns, will you two even live?
00:26:53You stubborn fools.
00:26:55You court death.
00:26:58They shat!
00:27:02What do you want to do?
00:27:04Hey, Laura, let's go.
00:27:08Laura, what's wrong?
00:27:14Who did this?
00:27:17I did.
00:27:19So what?
00:27:20I was only helping my sister.
00:27:22I never thought she'd be stupid enough to walk on hot coals for a worthless trinket.
00:27:26Shut up!
00:27:29Who are you to dare speak to me like this?
00:27:32So what if I insult her?
00:27:34She married a peasant.
00:27:35As Lady Thorn, you're nothing but insects.
00:27:37Even if I killed you today, you'd thank me on your knees.
00:27:40Let's see how much longer you can act.
00:27:42Seize this peasant and Alara.
00:27:45Get him!
00:27:47Stay away from him.
00:27:48Are you alright?
00:27:55Stand back!
00:27:56No!
00:27:59Dare to harm what's mine.
00:28:01Seize them!
00:28:08How dare you!
00:28:09I am Lady Thorn!
00:28:15My lord, help me!
00:28:17Guards!
00:28:18Whoever kills him shall have ten gold coins!
00:28:26Wretch!
00:28:27Lord Lucian is a distant relative of the royal family.
00:28:31If you dare lay a hand on him, you'll make an enemy of the Thorn.
00:28:35Royal kin or not.
00:28:37Harm my wife and you die!
00:28:43Cease this farce at once.
00:28:45Release me before I lose my temper and I may spare your life.
00:28:48You have tormented Alaxa horribly.
00:28:51Hold their faces in the fire!
00:28:52Guards!
00:28:54Guards!
00:28:56Get off of me!
00:28:58Stop!
00:28:59When the king's court arrives, you will pay dearly!
00:29:06See?
00:29:07My brother is the high judge of the realm.
00:29:09Offend me today and you will not live.
00:29:11We shall see who in the high court dares to shield you.
00:29:14Continue!
00:29:19Help me!
00:29:20No!
00:29:22Seraphina!
00:29:23No!
00:29:23Fool!
00:29:25If you want to die, don't drag the Vos family down with you!
00:29:29Cease this at once!
00:29:32Brother!
00:29:33Help me!
00:29:34Help me!
00:29:49You dare lay hands on my brother?
00:29:56Brother!
00:29:57What are the king's personal guard doing here?
00:29:59It is me!
00:30:00That voice...
00:30:02Could it be...
00:30:06The king!
00:30:09The king?
00:30:13The king?
00:30:14How could this peasant be the king?
00:30:16Brother!
00:30:18Don't be fooled by this peasant!
00:30:20His clothes are stolen!
00:30:22And these men are just paid thugs!
00:30:24Yes!
00:30:25You've only just taken office!
00:30:26It's easy to mistake him!
00:30:28He's truly a commoner!
00:30:30He cannot be the king!
00:30:32That's right!
00:30:33How could the king be here?
00:30:35Foolish girl!
00:30:36Look at the man you married!
00:30:38You've angered the thorn!
00:30:39How will you end this?
00:30:41Lord Thorn, you must avenge us!
00:30:44This peasant and Alara are trying to kill us!
00:30:47Outrageous!
00:30:48How dare you run amok in the capital!
00:30:50Seize them!
00:30:51And throw them in prison for torture!
00:30:53Hold!
00:30:54What have you to say for yourself?
00:30:57I was unaware the office of High Judge had been given to you!
00:31:01You lowly cur!
00:31:02How dare you question a royal official!
00:31:05My brother was appointed High Judge by the king's mother herself!
00:31:10Now you fear for your life!
00:31:11To deceive even the Queen Dowda!
00:31:14The Thorn family has some nerve!
00:31:19Your Highness!
00:31:20You must avenge me!
00:31:22His Majesty has secretly pledged marriage to the Elder Miss Vos outside the palace!
00:31:26What?
00:31:27He even flew into a rage at me in public for that woman!
00:31:31His Majesty has married outside the palace?
00:31:37Prepare my carriage!
00:31:42Insolence!
00:31:43How dare you treat Hermidenus with such disrespect!
00:31:48How many heads do you have to dare act so recklessly?
00:31:52Lord Thorn, I beg you to see clearly, Elora is no longer one of us.
00:31:58The Vos family bears no responsibility for anything she says.
00:32:02That's right, Lord Thorn.
00:32:04We, Vos, have always abided by the law.
00:32:07We would never dare to speak ill of the royal family.
00:32:10You must see the truth!
00:32:12Impersonating royalty is a capital offense.
00:32:15You must not let them go, my lord!
00:32:18Elora, your husband has committed a heinous crime.
00:32:21No one can save you today!
00:32:24I cannot let Sian come to harm.
00:32:27Mercy, my lord!
00:32:28My husband did not mean to offend.
00:32:30My husband!
00:32:31Elora!
00:32:36Elora, let's go!
00:32:39Guards, stop them!
00:32:41Stand back, or you'll all be killed!
00:32:43Yes, my lord!
00:32:48Think you can leave?
00:32:50Not so easy!
00:33:07Sian!
00:33:10Serafina, how can you be so cruel?
00:33:12Sian has done nothing to you.
00:33:15This peasant tried to have my face ruined.
00:33:18I'll never let you get away with this!
00:33:20Sian!
00:33:24Stop staring.
00:33:25Your men are too busy to save you now.
00:33:28You're asking for death!
00:33:30Sian!
00:33:33Go, now, while you can!
00:33:36Elora, no.
00:33:37Leave?
00:33:38Does he think he can?
00:33:41Serafina, why won't you just leave me be?
00:33:45You're so lucky, sister.
00:33:47Even a peasant loves you truly.
00:33:49But the happier you are, the less I want you to have it!
00:33:52You!
00:33:54Serafina, our quarrel has nothing to do with others.
00:33:58Do what you want to me.
00:34:00But please, let Sian go.
00:34:02Elora, don't waste words on her.
00:34:04I can't drag you into this.
00:34:06How touching.
00:34:07Even now, you still have time to flirt with this peasant.
00:34:11Since you love each other so deeply.
00:34:14I'll send you both together!
00:34:17Hurry up and finish them.
00:34:18Go to hell!
00:34:21Elora, look out!
00:34:23The Queen Dowager!
00:34:27Who dares touch my son, the king?
00:34:33Is he truly the king?
00:34:37He is really the king.
00:34:40Elora, Elora!
00:34:41Fetch the royal medicine!
00:34:43Hurry!
00:34:44Your Majesty!
00:34:46Felix, take Elora back to the palace at once for treatment.
00:34:50If anything happens to her, there will be hell to pay.
00:34:54Yes, Your Majesty.
00:35:03Your Majesty, the entire Vos family has been arrested.
00:35:07My son.
00:35:10Your Majesty.
00:35:11But what?
00:35:12You called him...
00:35:13The king?
00:35:14But he's just a peasant!
00:35:16By my order, Elias Vos and his family shall be executed on the spot!
00:35:23My lady!
00:35:24My lady!
00:35:26Darius, as the high judge of the realm, has abused his power and aided the wicked.
00:35:32From this day forth, he is stripped of his title and shall be imprisoned in the dungeons alongside Lucien!
00:35:39Mercy, Your Majesty!
00:35:41Mercy, Your Majesty!
00:35:43Spare me, Your Highness!
00:35:44Spare me, Your Majesty!
00:35:46I was too blind to recognize you!
00:35:51Did you ever think this day would come when you humiliated Elora?
00:35:56Even in this second life, I've chosen wrong again.
00:35:59Your Highness!
00:36:00My crimes were instigated by the Vos family!
00:36:03Your Highness!
00:36:04For the sake of my father, spare me one time, Earl Thorne!
00:36:07Spare us, Your Majesty and Your Highness!
00:36:09I beg mercy of Your Majesty and Your Highness!
00:36:12Spare us, Your Highness!
00:36:15Your Majesty.
00:36:18The two Thorn sons are foolish, but not the masterminds.
00:36:22They deserve leniency.
00:36:23As for the Vos, common as they are, executing the entire household is excessive.
00:36:30Elora is gravely injured.
00:36:32You should go and tend to her.
00:36:46This is the housekeeping department.
00:36:50Elora, I'll come see you whenever I can.
00:36:52All right.
00:36:57You're Majd...
00:37:06You're here at the housekeeping department.
00:37:09Why didn't you let me know beforehand?
00:37:11This is Lady Elena, head maid of the housekeeping department.
00:37:15If you need anything, just let her know.
00:37:19Greetings, Lady Elena.
00:37:21This is Elora, a new maid.
00:37:24I'd be grateful if you could look after her, Lady Elena.
00:37:27You have my word.
00:37:28I shall take good care of Lady Elora and see she is given no heavy work.
00:37:37Sian, I came here to be a maid.
00:37:40So why do I feel more like a lady?
00:37:49This is the housekeeping department.
00:37:52Elora, I'll come see you whenever I can.
00:37:55All right.
00:37:59You're Majd...
00:38:08You're here at the housekeeping department.
00:38:11Why didn't you let me know beforehand?
00:38:13This is Lady Elena, head maid of the housekeeping department.
00:38:17If you need anything, just let her know.
00:38:21Greetings, Lady Elena.
00:38:23This is Elora, a new maid.
00:38:26I'd be grateful if you could look after her, Lady Elena.
00:38:29You have my word.
00:38:30I shall take good care of Lady Elora and see she is given no heavy work.
00:38:40Sian, I came here to be a maid.
00:38:42So why do I feel more like a lady?
00:38:50She's...
00:38:53She's probably...
00:38:53Kind.
00:39:00Ilarra, come with me.
00:39:05Go ahead.
00:39:16You, wash all these clean.
00:39:20We're all maids here, and the work is assigned fairly.
00:39:23Why should I do your share?
00:39:25Don't you dare ask!
00:39:26It's all because of you that I'm stuck cleaning the chamber pots.
00:39:29God knows what underhanded tricks you use to get in here.
00:39:33And Lady Elena just handed you all the light work on a silver platter.
00:39:42You!
00:39:44If you truly insist on making her your queen, she must pass my test.
00:39:48But until then, she must never learn your true identity.
00:39:51Otherwise, I will find countless ways to keep you apart.
00:39:53Her Highness was out riding and passed Vos Manor.
00:39:56She saved us.
00:39:58What about my father and the others?
00:40:00Her Highness ordered their punishment.
00:40:02Lucian received 50 lashes.
00:40:04His constitution was already weak from constant debauchery.
00:40:07He fainted on the spot and is now under house arrest.
00:40:10Your sister has been sent to the Royal House of Correction for hard labor.
00:40:15As for your father and the rest, they have all been exiled.
00:40:18Exiled?
00:40:19Don't worry, Elora.
00:40:21I will protect you from now on.
00:40:23I'll serve as a palace guard, and you'll work in the Royal Maid's Quarters.
00:40:27Okay.
00:40:27We'll work here for three to five years, and when we've saved enough, we'll leave the palace and live a
00:40:32simple life.
00:40:33Elora, I hope you can forgive me.
00:40:43See, what's wrong?
00:40:47Is it your wound?
00:40:51The wound on your back?
00:40:55It's all because of me.
00:41:02It's nothing.
00:41:03Just a slight pull.
00:41:05It doesn't hurt.
00:41:09Don't lie.
00:41:10I saw the blood.
00:41:12You only got hurt protecting me.
00:41:16Gail, I'm so sorry.
00:41:18It means you can know right now.
00:41:19Don't ever do that again.
00:41:21It breaks my heart.
00:41:22Do you understand?
00:41:27My sweet girl, it doesn't matter.
00:41:29As long as you're safe, it's all worth it.
00:41:32Elora, with you by my side, I fear no wound.
00:41:38Just heal well.
00:41:40When you're better, we'll face everything together, all right?
00:41:46I'll take good care of you, too.
00:41:48I won't let you hurt anymore.
00:41:54Your Highness.
00:41:56The Housekeeping Department are humble.
00:41:58I fear it may harm your royal person.
00:42:01Allow me to announce you first.
00:42:03There is no need.
00:42:04I have disguised myself as head maid to see Elora's true nature with my own eyes.
00:42:08She must not learn my identity.
00:42:10Cease this instant!
00:42:22Palace rules are strict.
00:42:25I leave but a moment.
00:42:27And you grow so bold?
00:42:29What place do you think this is?
00:42:31Lady Elena, Elora, has stolen a royal pendant.
00:42:37Theft is the worst crime in the palace.
00:42:40Fearing exposure?
00:42:43She tried to harm me!
00:42:45You must punish her severely!
00:42:49Lady Elena, hear me out.
00:42:51It is not what it seems.
00:42:52Enough!
00:42:53Bring me the pendant.
00:42:58This pendant is mine.
00:43:00I said, hand over the pendant.
00:43:08I said, hand over the pendant.
00:43:15Royal Eagle Pendant!
00:43:17This truly belongs to the King!
00:43:24Your Highness.
00:43:26The Housekeeping Department are humble.
00:43:28I fear it may harm your royal person.
00:43:31Allow me to announce you first.
00:43:33There is no need.
00:43:34I have disguised myself as head maid to see Elora's true nature with my own eyes.
00:43:38She must not learn my identity.
00:43:40Cease this instant!
00:43:51Palace rules are strict.
00:43:54I leave but a moment.
00:43:57And you grow so bold?
00:43:59What place do you think this is?
00:44:01Lady Elena, Elora, has stolen a royal pendant.
00:44:07Theft is the worst crime in the palace.
00:44:10Fearing exposure?
00:44:12She tried to harm me!
00:44:15You must punish her severely.
00:44:18Lady Elena, hear me out.
00:44:20It is not what it seems.
00:44:22Enough!
00:44:23Bring me the pendant.
00:44:27This pendant is mine.
00:44:29I said, hand over the pendant.
00:44:45Royal Eagle Pendant!
00:44:47This truly belongs to the King!
00:44:50The Royal Eagle Pendant!
00:44:52This truly belongs to the King!
00:44:54The King has actually given her something so vital.
00:44:57If she dares steal the King's own pendant,
00:44:59who knows what she'll do next.
00:45:00By palace law,
00:45:02theft worth more than one gold coin
00:45:04calls for the left foot to be cut off
00:45:06and the mark of a thief branded on her face.
00:45:09Madam, this pendant was a gift from my dearest one.
00:45:13I never stole it.
00:45:15I truly had no idea.
00:45:18It belonged to the King.
00:45:20If this pendant is proven to be the King's,
00:45:23his identity will be exposed.
00:45:25One piece of evidence alone does not prove theft.
00:45:28I will uncover the truth.
00:45:32Until then, the pendant shall remain in my custody.
00:45:37If you are innocent, you shall have justice.
00:45:40Thank you, Madam.
00:45:42This is the new head maid, Vera.
00:45:44She will oversee the housekeeping department with me from now on.
00:45:48All of you behave yourselves.
00:45:49Anyone found slacking or causing trouble
00:45:51will be punished by palace law.
00:45:54Yes.
00:45:59You've caused quite a disturbance.
00:46:01As punishment, you shall clean the chamber pops.
00:46:04Until you've finished,
00:46:04only then may you eat.
00:46:09Yes, Madam.
00:46:18That should do it.
00:46:25Your Majesty,
00:46:27Lady Cordelia has arrived at the palace again.
00:46:29Will you see her?
00:46:31No.
00:46:32Send her back where she came from.
00:46:34Leave me.
00:46:35I am going to see Alara.
00:46:37If you come with me,
00:46:38my cover will be blown.
00:46:45Alara.
00:46:48Kale?
00:46:49Why are you here?
00:46:50How could Lady Elena make you do such work?
00:46:53I'm going to have a word with her.
00:46:58I'm going to find her.
00:47:00Kale?
00:47:03It's just cleaning chamber pots.
00:47:06It's nothing.
00:47:08Alara.
00:47:10I-I...
00:47:15I hate to see you treated this way.
00:47:17I will get you out of here as soon as I can.
00:47:21Oh, that's right.
00:47:22What exactly is the pendant you gave me?
00:47:24Why do they all keep saying it belongs to the King?
00:47:27I...
00:47:27My father once served as a palace guard.
00:47:29He was awarded this pendant by the King as a reward for his service.
00:47:32That's why it bears the royal mark.
00:47:33I see.
00:47:35They kept going on about it being the King's.
00:47:36I thought you might have lied to me.
00:47:42Who goes there?
00:47:45You must go at once.
00:47:46It's Lady Vera.
00:47:47Don't let her see you.
00:47:48Tomorrow.
00:47:50I shall come to see you tomorrow.
00:47:59Madam's.
00:48:00All the chamber pots have been cleaned.
00:48:02Finished?
00:48:03Then you shall sweep the entire backyard.
00:48:07Yes.
00:48:11I'm finally done.
00:48:19Why are you throwing my things away?
00:48:21Lady Vera has given her direct order.
00:48:23You must bring her a pot of tea brewed with morning dew at first light, and it must be a
00:48:26full jug.
00:48:28Morning dew? A whole jug?
00:48:32Morning dew? A whole jug?
00:48:37Everyone heard me. I'm not making this up.
00:48:40Why is Lady Vera targeting me like this?
00:48:43Lady Vera has been merciful enough not to punish you for stealing the pendant.
00:48:47Collecting morning dew is a light task. You should be grateful.
00:48:51The pendant was never stolen! How dare you slander me!
00:48:54If it wasn't stolen, did the king give it to you personally?
00:48:59Hey, Lara!
00:49:02Who did this?
00:49:06Steward Felix!
00:49:08Why is he here?
00:49:10Could it be that he's...
00:49:11You dare!
00:49:14Your majesty!
00:49:15Your ma-ma-
00:49:16Your majesty!
00:49:20You're the king!
00:49:24You're the king!
00:49:28How dare you, God!
00:49:30But until then, she must never learn your true identity.
00:49:33Otherwise, I will find countless ways to keep you apart.
00:49:40I meant no offense. I only rushed forward because I saw someone was hurt.
00:49:45Thank goodness he's not the king!
00:49:48But doesn't Stuart Felix stay by the king's side at all times?
00:49:51Stuart Felix, what on earth is going on here?
00:49:53This young guard bears quite a resemblance to the king.
00:49:56I've specially brought him to the palace for questioning.
00:49:58How dare you, ignuck-hummer, ignore the rules!
00:50:01The maid quarters are no place for random trespassers.
00:50:04I plead guilty, Your Grace.
00:50:09Guard, now that you know you're in the wrong, leave at once.
00:50:19As for you...
00:50:21Having an affair with a guard is such a serious matter,
00:50:24yet headmaid Vera only made her kneel as punishment.
00:50:27She even covered up the pendant thrift last time.
00:50:29One can't help but wonder who is backing her behind the seals.
00:50:32If his majesty the king found out someone stole his pendant,
00:50:35what do you think he would do to you?
00:50:38I shall go inform his majesty at once
00:50:41that it was Ilara who stole his pendant.
00:50:43He will show her no mercy.
00:50:53What has happened to my face?
00:51:01You fool!
00:51:03What have you put in the tea?
00:51:04It's a remedy I begged from the court herbalist,
00:51:07said to beautify the skin.
00:51:08I only wish to do Lady Vera kindness, that's all.
00:51:10I wasn't thinking straight.
00:51:12How dare you feed someone something you know nothing about?
00:51:15If these rashes don't go away,
00:51:17your life won't be enough to pay for it.
00:51:21Servants!
00:51:22Seize her and sell her off!
00:51:24Have mercy, madam!
00:51:25Spare me, please!
00:51:35Madam, please allow me to try.
00:51:39I shall go inform his majesty at once
00:51:41that it was Ilara who stole his pendant.
00:51:43He will show her no mercy.
00:51:53What has happened to my face?
00:52:02You fool!
00:52:03What have you put in the tea?
00:52:04It's a remedy I begged from the court herbalist,
00:52:07said to beautify the skin.
00:52:08I only wish to do Lady Vera kindness, that's all.
00:52:11I wasn't thinking straight.
00:52:12How dare you feed someone something you know nothing about?
00:52:15If these rashes don't go away,
00:52:17your life won't be enough to pay for it.
00:52:22Servants!
00:52:22Seize her and sell her off!
00:52:24Have mercy, madam!
00:52:26Spare me, please!
00:52:35Madam, please allow me to try.
00:52:39You?
00:52:40I've studied medical texts
00:52:42and can mix a herbal remedy.
00:52:43It might ease the rash.
00:52:44If my treatment works,
00:52:46I beg you to spare Maeve's life, madam.
00:52:56His majesty has barely paid me any mind for so long.
00:52:59I hear he's been frequenting
00:53:01the housekeeping department lately.
00:53:03Tell me, who could possibly be there
00:53:05to hold his attention so completely?
00:53:07I... I don't know.
00:53:09Speak!
00:53:16I remember now.
00:53:17There is indeed a maid there.
00:53:20So?
00:53:25It still looks unsightly,
00:53:27but the rashes have faded somewhat.
00:53:29You do possess some skill.
00:53:32Thank you for your praise, madam.
00:53:34In six more hours,
00:53:35the rashes will vanish completely.
00:53:40Allura!
00:53:41What do you want now?
00:53:43If not you,
00:53:44I would have been sold away.
00:53:45I wronged you before.
00:53:46I will accept any scolding
00:53:47or punishment you give me.
00:53:52Why would I scold you?
00:53:55So you forgive me?
00:53:58You are not truly wicked.
00:53:59Only far too sharp-tongued.
00:54:04Come.
00:54:06Your Highness.
00:54:07His Majesty insists on making Allura his queen.
00:54:11This is clearly no fleeting infatuation.
00:54:13She is truly extraordinary.
00:54:19Let's go have some pastries together.
00:54:21It's her!
00:54:26So you are the one
00:54:27who has ensangled the king.
00:54:30You have such a bewitching face.
00:54:33No wonder you are restless.
00:54:35It is one thing for the king
00:54:37to marry someone outside the palace,
00:54:39but how dare a lowly maid like you
00:54:41harbor improper thoughts?
00:54:43When did Allura ever seduce His Majesty?
00:54:46Mayev,
00:54:47have you forgotten what we suffered
00:54:48because of her?
00:54:49Allura never sought trouble with me.
00:54:52It is you who have been picking on her
00:54:53on purpose all along.
00:54:55Do you know who I am
00:54:57or how big of a mistake you just made?
00:54:59Seize them!
00:55:02The woman before you is Lady Cordelia,
00:55:05daughter of the Duke of Clifton,
00:55:06the Queen Dowager's chosen wide for the king.
00:55:09You fools!
00:55:11Lady Cordelia,
00:55:12as a Duke's daughter,
00:55:13you must be reasonable.
00:55:14We have never even laid eyes of the king.
00:55:16How could there be any seduction?
00:55:19Leela tells me you have not only seduced the king,
00:55:22but also consorted with gods.
00:55:23I cannot let you keep that face.
00:55:25Press this bitch onto the thorns.
00:55:28Let her feel the agony of flesh torn open.
00:55:30See if she dares to lure anyone ever again.
00:55:36It hurts!
00:55:37Let me go!
00:55:40Why are you crying?
00:55:42Wretched thing,
00:55:43that alluring face of yours
00:55:44deserves to be ruined.
00:55:46Lila,
00:55:47bring me the knife.
00:55:50Stop!
00:55:56Stop!
00:55:59Madam!
00:56:01Madam!
00:56:02The maid quarters belongs to the inner palace.
00:56:05Since when is it your place to meddle here?
00:56:08How dare an old maid like you
00:56:11speak insolently to me?
00:56:12Cordelia,
00:56:13how dare you?
00:56:14The king and I have been childhood sweethearts.
00:56:17I am his only destined queen.
00:56:18This palace will be mine sooner or later.
00:56:21Punishing one lowly maid is nothing.
00:56:23Absurd!
00:56:23Do you know who stands before you?
00:56:26You are nothing but a lowborn maid.
00:56:28I will teach you your place.
00:56:30Seize her too!
00:56:33Lila,
00:56:34dare you?
00:56:35I never imagined you had such a venomous heart.
00:56:38I,
00:56:38the king's mother,
00:56:40have truly misjudged you.
00:56:43You still dare to call yourself the king's mother.
00:56:54Disfigured old woman,
00:56:56you still dare claim the title of the king's mother.
00:56:58You are begging for death!
00:56:59It seems you refuse to repent.
00:57:02What sin have I committed?
00:57:03You were born humble,
00:57:04servants in the palace.
00:57:06To defy your superiors is to court death.
00:57:08Lady Cordelia,
00:57:09the inner palace is governed by the king and the king's mother.
00:57:12Punishing maids without authorations violates palace rules.
00:57:15I beg you to show mercy.
00:57:16As head maid,
00:57:17you indulge lowly maids in seducing the king.
00:57:21You set a corrupt example and flout all rules.
00:57:24Bring the whip!
00:57:39Next month marks the royal spring garden party,
00:57:42where all peers and dignitaries shall attend.
00:57:44See that every detail is executed flawlessly.
00:57:47Rest assured,
00:57:48your majesty,
00:57:50I shall devote myself entirely to this task.
00:57:56How dare you?
00:57:58Disturbing the king,
00:57:59do you know you're crying?
00:58:01Your majesty.
00:58:03Your majesty.
00:58:05I beg you.
00:58:07Save Alara.
00:58:09To the servants' hall.
00:58:11They'll beat her to death.
00:58:13What did you say?
00:58:15Alara is in danger.
00:58:29What are you doing?
00:58:31I am the one who angered Lady Cordelia.
00:58:35I do not wish for you to be punished unjustly.
00:58:40You love playing the hero.
00:58:42Then I shall grant your wish today.
00:58:48Enough, Cordelia.
00:58:50I warn you not to go too far,
00:58:52or else you still dare speak in such a tone,
00:58:55wretched servant.
00:58:57Today I will teach you proper manners
00:59:00in her highness's stead.
00:59:01Cordelia!
00:59:06Do you know who it is you are about to strike?
00:59:10Your majesty.
00:59:12Your majesty.
00:59:14Your highness.
00:59:15Your highness.
00:59:16Your highness.
00:59:18Your highness.
00:59:19How could she be the king's mother?
00:59:24This cannot be.
00:59:26Her highness was testing you all.
00:59:28Never did I imagine you would be so arrogant
00:59:30as to dare mistreat the king's mother herself.
00:59:34Your highness, I beg forgiveness.
00:59:36I fail to recognize your highness as the queen doer.
00:59:39Sir, I beg your pardon.
00:59:41And I beg your majesty for mercy.
00:59:44Your majesty?
00:59:45The king?
00:59:52This matter is of great gravity
00:59:54and concerns the queen dowager's dignity.
00:59:56I beg your majesty to pass fair judgment.
01:00:00Indeed.
01:00:01Indeed.
01:00:02How dare you offend the queen dowager?
01:00:07Repent at once!
01:00:09I acknowledge my sins, your highness.
01:00:14It was this maid.
01:00:16She misled me, telling me Allura had seduced his majesty.
01:00:20That is why I lost my senses.
01:00:22Lady Cordelia, it was all you!
01:00:24Silence!
01:00:25If you had not incited me,
01:00:27I would never have dared act insolently
01:00:29before the queen dowager.
01:00:30Maid Lila spreads false rumors
01:00:32and violates palace laws.
01:00:34Drag her away and sell her into servitude at once.
01:00:39I beg your highness for forgiveness.
01:00:41I did not spread lies.
01:00:43I truly saw Allura
01:00:45exchanging improper glances with the guard.
01:00:48I humbly beg your highness for forgiveness!
01:00:51You are the elder daughter of House Vos!
01:00:55Presumptuous Cordelia.
01:00:56I thought you kind,
01:00:57but you are cruel,
01:00:58disrespectful to your superiors,
01:01:00and deluded enough to covet the queen's throne.
01:01:02I sentence you to one year
01:01:04in the royal penitentiary to repent.
01:01:06The royal penitentiary?
01:01:08I repent!
01:01:10I repent!
01:01:12I beg your grace to spare me!
01:01:15I do not wish to go there!
01:01:17I have something to ask you.
01:01:22You remain here.
01:01:24Summon the royal physician at once
01:01:26to heal Allura's wounds
01:01:28and tend to her carefully.
01:01:30Yes, your highness.
01:01:37Kael, come with me.
01:01:57Sien,
01:01:58has her highness punished you?
01:02:05Your wounds.
01:02:07Do they still hurt?
01:02:09What did the physician say?
01:02:12Ointment has been applied.
01:02:13The pain has faded.
01:02:15Do not worry.
01:02:17How could I not worry seeing you like this?
01:02:19Allura,
01:02:20I am sorry I failed to protect you in time.
01:02:24It is all in the past.
01:02:26As long as you are unharmed.
01:02:28Well,
01:02:29I will never let you suffer such agony again,
01:02:32Allura.
01:02:34Allura has passed the trial.
01:02:36I shall confess my identity to her at once
01:02:39and name her my queen.
01:02:40The coronation can wait.
01:02:42Next month is the royal spring garden party.
01:02:46And the ceremony court
01:02:47is already preparing
01:02:48the coronation ceremony
01:02:49with limited manpower.
01:02:51Besides,
01:02:51this is far too sudden.
01:02:53I fear the ministers will object.
01:02:55Mother,
01:02:56why not entrust Allura
01:02:58with organizing this banquet?
01:02:59If she succeeds,
01:03:00she will prove her capability
01:03:02and persuade everyone
01:03:03to accept her as queen.
01:03:05Her highness has tasked you
01:03:06with organizing next month's
01:03:07royal spring garden party.
01:03:10I...
01:03:10but I know nothing of such matters.
01:03:12Do not fear.
01:03:13With your ability,
01:03:14you will succeed.
01:03:15I will also assist you in secret.
01:03:19Very well.
01:03:26All of you move quickly!
01:03:29Anyone who slacks off
01:03:31will taste my whip!
01:03:36Worthless wretch!
01:03:39Do you still fancy yourself
01:03:40a noble lady
01:03:41once inside the royal penitentiary?
01:03:44No one is allowed
01:03:45to be lazy.
01:03:53Laura!
01:03:54Did it!
01:03:56This is all your fault!
01:04:02Don't touch me!
01:04:06I am the daughter
01:04:07of the Duke of Clifton.
01:04:09Show me proper respect!
01:04:12Daughter of the Duke of Clifton?
01:04:14In my past life,
01:04:15Lucien was promoted
01:04:16by the Queen Dowager
01:04:17at the Spring Banquet.
01:04:19If I can escape this place
01:04:21and get Lucien
01:04:22to appear at the banquet,
01:04:23I will surely turn
01:04:24my fortunes around.
01:04:35What a wretched place!
01:04:38I am expected
01:04:39to wash clothes here!
01:04:44Where did this lowly maid
01:04:46come from?
01:04:46Sister,
01:04:47I have an urgent favor
01:04:48to ask of you.
01:04:49Why would I help you?
01:04:52Were I not fallen
01:04:54from grace,
01:04:54you would not even
01:04:56be worthy
01:04:57of speaking to me.
01:04:58My sister Alara
01:05:00trapped me here.
01:05:01If you help me escape,
01:05:03I will serve you faithfully
01:05:04for the rest of my life
01:05:05in repayment.
01:05:11Alara?
01:05:14Excellent.
01:05:15The banquet procedures
01:05:17are well organized.
01:05:18It is clear
01:05:19you put great effort
01:05:21into this.
01:05:22I am confident
01:05:23in trusting this to you.
01:05:25Thank you,
01:05:26Your Highness.
01:05:27Your Highness!
01:05:31Disaster!
01:05:32A fire has broken out
01:05:33at the Royal Penitentiary!
01:05:35What?
01:05:40Sir,
01:05:41what is the situation inside?
01:05:44The fire
01:05:44has engulfed
01:05:45the entire backyard.
01:05:47Nearly half the occupants
01:05:48not escaped.
01:05:51Could Cordelia
01:05:52have perished?
01:05:59Your Highness!
01:06:02Your Highness!
01:06:06I know my sins.
01:06:08I beg you
01:06:08to revoke my punishment.
01:06:10I cannot endure
01:06:11even one more day
01:06:12in the Royal Penitentiary.
01:06:13It is a relief
01:06:14you survived.
01:06:15I must also
01:06:16give an account
01:06:16to your father.
01:06:18Never mind.
01:06:20With your temperament,
01:06:21staying in the institution
01:06:22will do you no good.
01:06:23You shall be sent north
01:06:25for a marital alliance
01:06:26with the Northern Diagis
01:06:27next month.
01:06:28A marriage alliance?
01:06:30Refuse,
01:06:30and you return
01:06:31to the Royal Penitentiary.
01:06:33No!
01:06:38I shall obey
01:06:39Your Highness' decree.
01:06:42I will depart
01:06:43for the alliance
01:06:44next month.
01:06:47Yet I have one request.
01:06:49I survived this disaster
01:06:50solely because
01:06:51Miss Seraphina
01:06:52of House Vos
01:06:53risked her life
01:06:53to save me.
01:06:54I beg Your Highness
01:06:56to release her
01:06:56from the Royal Penitentiary.
01:06:58Your Highness.
01:07:02I recall
01:07:02Seraphina
01:07:03as your sister.
01:07:04In your opinion,
01:07:05how shall I reward her?
01:07:09Your Highness,
01:07:11Seraphina and I
01:07:11have been distant
01:07:12since childhood
01:07:13and share little affection.
01:07:14It is entirely up
01:07:15to Your Highness
01:07:16to decide.
01:07:18Since you have agreed
01:07:19to the marital alliance,
01:07:21I shall grant your wish.
01:07:24return to the palace.
01:07:27I humbly
01:07:28thank Your Highness.
01:07:31Allora,
01:07:32I thought you
01:07:33had climbed high
01:07:34to become a noble,
01:07:35yet you remain
01:07:36nothing but a lowly bird.
01:07:38You ruined
01:07:39our parents'
01:07:40house, Thorn,
01:07:40and made me
01:07:41suffer endlessly
01:07:42in the Royal Penitentiary.
01:07:44I will settle
01:07:45this debt with you.
01:07:55Brother,
01:07:55let me out.
01:07:56If I stay locked up
01:07:57any longer,
01:07:57I will go mad.
01:07:59How dare you speak?
01:08:00If you and Seraphina
01:08:01had not acted foolishly,
01:08:03I would not have offended
01:08:04the king
01:08:04and lost my position.
01:08:05It is all that bitch
01:08:06Aliva's fault!
01:08:08My lord!
01:08:09Why have you returned?
01:08:10The Queen Dowger
01:08:11has hardened my crimes.
01:08:12I no longer have to stay
01:08:13in the Royal Penitentiary.
01:08:15You ruined all of us,
01:08:17yet you still have
01:08:17the nerve to come back?
01:08:19Brother,
01:08:19Allora is the one
01:08:20who truly wronged you.
01:08:21Instead of blaming
01:08:22each other,
01:08:23we should find a way
01:08:24to destroy her.
01:08:25Allora?
01:08:26She is the king's woman now.
01:08:28How are we supposed
01:08:29to take her down?
01:08:31I saw her
01:08:32in the Institute.
01:08:33She still wears
01:08:34a maid's uniform.
01:08:35She is not favored at all.
01:08:36Could the king's affection
01:08:37for her be only
01:08:38a fleeting insacuation?
01:08:39Of course.
01:08:40If the king
01:08:41truly loved her,
01:08:42why would he keep her
01:08:43as a maid?
01:08:44The Royal Spring Garden
01:08:46Party is next month
01:08:47and all nobles
01:08:47will attend the palace.
01:08:49It is our perfect opportunity.
01:08:51House Thorn
01:08:51is invited
01:08:52to the Spring Banquet.
01:08:53I will be able
01:08:54to go too!
01:08:56What scheme
01:08:57are you planning now?
01:08:59Rest assured, brother,
01:09:01I will shine
01:09:02at the banquet,
01:09:03win Her Highness' favor,
01:09:05and restore

01:09:15banquet.
01:09:17Check everything

01:09:20Not a single mistake
01:09:21is allowed.
01:09:22Do not worry.
01:09:24You have double-checked
01:09:25every procedure.
01:09:27Nothing will go wrong.
01:09:29I hope so.
01:09:33Allura,
01:09:34you love
01:09:34these pastries.
01:09:35I had extra
01:09:36prepared for you.
01:09:48Kale!
01:09:51So many people
01:09:53at the palace feast,
01:09:54yet I can only
01:09:54watch you from afar.
01:09:55I can no longer
01:09:56restrain myself.
01:09:59Wait me here
01:10:00after the banquet.
01:10:01I have something
01:10:02vital to tell you.
01:10:04I...
01:10:05I will wait you here.
01:10:12Mmm, Kale,
01:10:13this is the garden.
01:10:14Someone might come.
01:10:16No one dares come here.
01:10:18The only one I want.
01:10:19is you.
01:10:21Right now.
01:10:22Allura,
01:10:23do you know
01:10:24how much I crave you?
01:10:25Every night,
01:10:26I dream of holding
01:10:27you beneath me,
01:10:28of hearing you gasp
01:10:29and beg for me.
01:10:29No!
01:10:30Not here!
01:10:32No one is around.
01:10:33You can scream
01:10:34as loud as you like.
01:10:35I want to hear you
01:10:36cry for me.
01:10:37Your body is so warm.
01:10:40Allura,
01:10:41tell me you crave me too.
01:10:43Kale,
01:10:44I am scared,
01:10:45but I miss you so much.
01:10:53My lord,
01:10:54look.
01:10:59Allura is with a guard.
01:11:14Right,
01:11:15you are on duty today.
01:11:17We must go back
01:11:18at once.
01:11:20Remember to wait
01:11:21for me here.
01:11:22Okay!
01:11:27Sister cannot stay away
01:11:28from men
01:11:29for even a moment.
01:11:32Abandoned by the king
01:11:33one moment,
01:11:34consorting with a guard
01:11:35the next.
01:11:42This is the royal palace,
01:11:44not your favorite
01:11:44House Vos Manor.
01:11:48Every action is watched
01:11:50by the king
01:11:51and the queen
01:11:51Dowmadger.
01:11:52You were only just freed,
01:11:54yet you have learned nothing.
01:11:56My husband and I
01:11:58are honored guests,
01:11:59invited to the banquet.
01:12:00You are nothing
01:12:01but a maid.
01:12:02If we are pleased,
01:12:03we indulge you.
01:12:04If not,
01:12:05no one will even care
01:12:07if you die.
01:12:08Your escape
01:12:09from House Vos last time
01:12:10was pure luck.
01:12:11No one protects you anymore!
01:12:14What do you mean?
01:12:15As long as you suffer,
01:12:17I am content.
01:12:19The queen Dowager.
01:12:24You stay out of this,
01:12:26Allura!
01:12:27The queen Dowager.
01:12:30Allura,
01:12:31you have labored hard,
01:12:33organizing the spring banquet.
01:12:36Once it ends,
01:12:38I shall reward you generously.
01:12:40It is merely my duty.
01:12:41I feel no hardship.
01:12:44Your highness!
01:12:45I have an accusation to make.
01:12:49Say.
01:12:50I accuse Allura
01:12:52of confiding with a guard
01:12:53in secret.
01:12:54I witnessed it
01:12:56with my own eyes.
01:12:57their actions were indecent
01:12:59and they tried to hide it
01:13:01when discovered.
01:13:02So bold in broad daylight.
01:13:04Their private sins
01:13:06must be far worse.
01:13:08Your highness,
01:13:10the guard and I
01:13:11shared mutual affection
01:13:12before I entered the palace.
01:13:14We only meet occasionally
01:13:15within the palace
01:13:16and have committed
01:13:17no immoral affairs.
01:13:19If you were innocent,
01:13:20why did you hurry away
01:13:22upon seeing us?
01:13:23Secret consorting
01:13:24is a capital crime!
01:13:26Your highness,
01:13:27it was I
01:13:28who insisted
01:13:29on meeting him.
01:13:30If you sentence me
01:13:31to death for this,
01:13:33I beg you spare the guard.
01:13:35They are both guilty!
01:13:37I beg your highness
01:13:38to execute the guard as well!
01:13:40I beg your highness
01:13:41to put them both to death
01:13:42to uphold palace law.
01:13:44Who exactly
01:13:45do you wish
01:13:45for me to execute?
01:13:49Who exactly
01:13:50do you wish
01:13:51for me to execute?
01:13:53While palace rules
01:13:54forbid maids
01:13:55from concerting
01:13:56with guards,
01:13:57Ellara has dedicated
01:13:57herself fully
01:13:58to the spring banquet.
01:13:59She may atone
01:14:00through her service.
01:14:03I pardon her.
01:14:04Ellara,
01:14:05accompany me
01:14:06to the banquet.
01:14:11She escaped punishment
01:14:13once again.
01:14:14How is Ellara
01:14:14so fortunate?
01:14:15First protected
01:14:16by the king,
01:14:17now by her highness
01:14:18even entrusted
01:14:19with the entire banquet.
01:14:25Since Ellara
01:14:26is in charge
01:14:26of the banquet,
01:14:27this works perfectly
01:14:31for us.
01:14:36Your majesty,
01:14:37the banquet
01:14:37lies ahead.
01:14:38Where are you going?
01:14:39It will begin soon.
01:14:40You will not have time
01:14:41to change otherwise.
01:14:43I still believe
01:14:44I must tell Ellara
01:14:44the truth at once.
01:14:47Hurry and tell her
01:14:48to meet me
01:14:48at our former spot.
01:14:52Steward Felix.
01:14:54Steward Felix.
01:15:01What's wrong?
01:15:02You have achieved
01:15:03great merit.
01:15:05All the nobles
01:15:06praise the banquet
01:15:07and Herminus
01:15:08and Herminus
01:15:08is very satisfied.
01:15:12Very well.
01:15:14Someone waits for you
01:15:15behind the ceremony court.
01:15:17Who is it?
01:15:22assassins, protect the queen
01:15:24downer.
01:15:29Assassins, protect the queen
01:15:31downer.
01:15:34What has happened
01:15:35inside?
01:15:36An assassin
01:15:37disguised as a dancer
01:15:38attempted to murder
01:15:40the queen dowager.
01:15:41Young master Lucien
01:15:42blocked,
01:15:43blocked the blade
01:15:43for her highness
01:15:44and the assassin
01:15:45fled.
01:15:48What?
01:15:51Take her away.
01:15:52What are you doing?
01:15:53The queen dowager
01:15:54was targeted
01:15:54by an assassin.
01:15:55We arrest Ellora
01:15:56to stand trial
01:15:57at the court.
01:16:06Your grace,
01:16:07the prisoner
01:16:08has been brought forth.
01:16:09Your grace.
01:16:12So this is the woman
01:16:13who caused Cordelia
01:16:14to be sent
01:16:15into the marital alliance.
01:16:17Your grace,
01:16:19she is the one
01:16:20in charge
01:16:20of this entire
01:16:21spring banquet.
01:16:22How dare you!
01:16:23You arranged assassins
01:16:24to strike at the queen dowager
01:16:25during the banquet.
01:16:26What is your treacherous intent?
01:16:28I am innocent
01:16:28by the identity
01:16:29of every attendant
01:16:30at the banquet.
01:16:30I have no idea
01:16:31how the assassin infiltrates.
01:16:33Of course you know nothing.
01:16:34You were meeting
01:16:34with the guard
01:16:35in secret before the banquet.
01:16:36You clearly disregarded
01:16:37the queen dowager's safety.
01:16:39What?
01:16:40Hang her!
01:16:41Such treachery!
01:16:47My lord,
01:16:48I truly did not
01:16:49collude with assassins.
01:16:50Continue the torture.
01:16:52My lord,
01:16:53I can testify.
01:16:53The guard was seen
01:16:54within the palace gardens.
01:16:56Why has Alara not come?
01:17:12Your grace,
01:17:14the prisoner has been delivered.
01:17:20Sian.
01:17:22Alara,
01:17:23do you confess
01:17:23your crimes?
01:17:27I beg your lordship
01:17:29to investigate fairly.
01:17:30The assassin incident
01:17:31is my fault.
01:17:33I beg you not
01:17:34to punish anyone else
01:17:35for it.
01:17:35The palace is heavily guarded.
01:17:37Strangers cannot enter easily.
01:17:39Alara must have conspired
01:17:40with the assassins
01:17:40in secret.
01:17:41If Lucien had not
01:17:42acted swiftly
01:17:43to shield her madness,
01:17:44you would deserve death
01:17:44ten times over.
01:17:48your grace,
01:17:49I know nothing
01:17:50of the assassins.
01:17:51Grant me time
01:17:52and I will uncover
01:17:53the truth.
01:17:57Enough!
01:18:00Enough!
01:18:02Ellara colloves
01:18:03with the guard.
01:18:04You have discarded
01:18:06the Queen Dowager's safety.
01:18:08Execute both of them
01:18:09at once!
01:18:15My lord,
01:18:16I beg you
01:18:17to revoke this order.
01:18:18My lord,
01:18:19thank you.
01:18:44I would like to see
01:18:45who dares touch her!
01:18:50The King!
01:18:55Your Majesty.
01:19:06Your Majesty.
01:19:10Impossible.
01:19:11How dare you!
01:19:13You would execute
01:19:15the innocent
01:19:15without inquiring.
01:19:18Is this how you
01:19:20serve your post?
01:19:24You have plotted
01:19:25against Alara
01:19:26at every turn.
01:19:28Had I not been here,
01:19:29your scheme,
01:19:30Spotilith,
01:19:31would have prevailed.
01:19:32Your Majesty,
01:19:33I never,
01:19:34never sought
01:19:35to harm my sister.
01:19:36Your Majesty,
01:19:37Ellara was in charge
01:19:38of the Spring Banquet.
01:19:39By allowing an assassin
01:19:40to enter the palace
01:19:41and attempt on the
01:19:41Dauturge Empress' life,
01:19:43her crime is unforgivable.
01:19:44I beg you, sire,
01:19:45throw her into the dungeon
01:19:46immediately
01:19:47for harsh interrogation.
01:19:48The Duke is right.
01:19:49If Lord Lucian
01:19:50hadn't stepped
01:19:50and taken that blade today,
01:19:51the Dautur Empress
01:19:52would surely have been lost.
01:19:53Your Majesty,
01:19:54my life means nothing,
01:19:55but Ellara
01:19:56must be punished!
01:20:00If such incidents
01:20:01recur,
01:20:02who shall safeguard
01:20:04the royal palace?
01:20:05I beg your majesty
01:20:09to punish
01:20:10Ellara
01:20:11without fail!
01:20:13Lucian,
01:20:13how dare you!
01:20:16presume to make decisions
01:20:18in my stead?
01:20:20Her Highness
01:20:21has suffered
01:20:21great fright today.
01:20:23If your majesty
01:20:24spares Ellara,
01:20:25others will follow
01:20:27her example
01:20:28with disastrous consequences.
01:20:31I beg your majesty
01:20:32to punish her!
01:20:34We beg your majesty
01:20:35to punish Ellara!
01:20:36I beg your majesty
01:20:38to punish Ellara!
01:20:41Oh,
01:20:42if I
01:20:43present proof
01:20:45of Ellara's innocence,
01:20:47what penalty
01:20:48shall you all face?
01:20:53Impossible!
01:21:01Duke of Clifton,
01:21:02I'm talking
01:21:04to you!
01:21:07If I have
01:21:08wrongfully
01:21:09accused Ellara,
01:21:11I willingly
01:21:12accept
01:21:13the same punishment
01:21:14as her!
01:21:15Very well.
01:21:17Bring them in!
01:21:26Your majesty,
01:21:29I had spies
01:21:30stationed long ago
01:21:31and the assassin
01:21:32has been apprehended.
01:21:34My majesty,
01:21:35have mercy.
01:21:36Seraphina
01:21:37and Lucian
01:21:38ordered
01:21:38the attack
01:21:39on her highness.
01:21:42I was forced
01:21:44to obey!
01:21:45My majesty,
01:21:46have mercy.
01:21:48It's over.
01:21:50Everything
01:21:50is over.
01:21:52Cease!
01:21:52The Duke of Clifton!
01:21:56Your majesty,
01:21:57I have served
01:21:58this kingdom
01:21:59faithfully
01:22:00for decades!
01:22:01with utter
01:22:02devotion!
01:22:04You cannot
01:22:05treat me
01:22:05free and so
01:22:07cruelly!
01:22:08My majesty!
01:22:14As for the
01:22:15two of you,
01:22:16your majesty,
01:22:17this is none of my business.
01:22:18It was all her!
01:22:19You lie!
01:22:20Your majesty,
01:22:21I was only jealous
01:22:22of my sister.
01:22:23The plot to assassinate
01:22:24the Queen Dowder
01:22:24was entirely Lucian's idea.
01:22:26even his act
01:22:27of shielding
01:22:27her highness
01:22:28was a pretendess
01:22:29he staged himself!
01:22:32Bitch!
01:22:33How dare
01:22:34you betray me!
01:22:37Enough!
01:22:39Lucian
01:22:40and Seraphina,
01:22:41as the masterminds
01:22:43of this conspiracy,
01:22:44you shall be executed
01:22:45on the spot.
01:22:46The assassin
01:22:47mage shall be
01:22:48imprisoned in the
01:22:48royal dungeon
01:22:49pending further judgment.
01:22:50Your majesty,
01:22:51grant me mercy!
01:22:54Alara,
01:22:54I hate you!
01:22:55None of this
01:22:56would have happened
01:22:56if not for you!
01:22:57All of this
01:22:58should have been mine!
01:22:59You are wrong.
01:23:01You brought this
01:23:02ruin upon yourself,
01:23:03not me.
01:23:04Your fate today
01:23:05is entirely
01:23:05of your own making.
01:23:12Alara,
01:23:14I...
01:23:17So,
01:23:17your majesty,
01:23:19what is your
