00:00:03Lady Elora Thor, known for her gentle virtue and diligent service, is hereby conferred the title of Countess.
00:00:11So decreed.
00:00:12Long live the King!
00:00:30Little sister? Why?
00:00:32Don't call me sister! You don't deserve it! We're both the Vox daughters! Why do you get everything?
00:00:38If only Lord Lucian had caught my wreath three years ago, this should have all been mine!
00:00:43The glory and wealth you crave are nothing but an illusion.
00:00:49Go fuck yourself!
00:01:00Given another chance, I would gladly give up all these honors.
00:01:08My lord, word has spread throughout the city. Upon hearing the Vox daughters are to choose a husband, many noble
00:01:13young lords are rushing here.
00:01:16Today the House of Vox shall choose a suitor by wreath toss. Whoever catches my daughter's weeds shall have her
00:01:21hand in marriage.
00:01:22Lady Vox tosses to me!
00:01:24House Vox's son-in-law must be of noble birth. You and Seraphina must choose wisely when casting the wreath,
00:01:29but whoever marries well will be to fan pride.
00:01:31I've been reborn back to the day of wreath super selection three years ago.
00:01:35My lady, it's time to toss your wreath.
00:01:40Aldia, let me first!
00:01:41In my past life, Seraphina hesitated and begged me to go first. Why is she acting like this now?
00:01:46It seems Seraphina has been reborn too.
00:01:51This time, only I shall wed Lucian.
00:01:58That is Lucian, the second son of House Thorne!
00:02:00The Thorne family are distant relatives of the royal house! We shall be linked to the crown!
00:02:05This time I've finally changed my fate. In three years, Lucian will be granted a title, and I shall be
00:02:09a noble countess.
00:02:11Seraphina, all your clever schemes have only landed you in the Thorne family's deadly trap.
00:02:18Ha ha ha ha! Excellent!
00:02:21Seraphina has made the family proud!
00:02:24Papa, you flatter me.
00:02:26I only act for our family.
00:02:29Once I become Lady Thorne, I shall bring great glory to our house.
00:02:33Isn't that right, Elder Sister?
00:02:35You're truly blessed, little sister. I truly rejoice for you.
00:02:40Alara, I've stolen your good fortune.
00:02:42I will never live in your shadow again in this life.
00:02:53Wait, isn't that-
00:02:54Your Majesty! Your Majesty!
00:02:57My lord, if her highness learns you've left the palace dressed like this-
00:03:01My mother keeps pressuring me to choose my queen.
00:03:03I had to sneak out for some peace and experience life as an ordinary man.
00:03:06No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No!
00:03:18No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No!
00:03:21No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No!
00:03:22No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No!
00:03:22No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No!
00:03:22No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No
00:03:34Laura cannot settle for just any suitor.
00:03:38Mama, sister has always been blessed with luck.
00:03:42She'd never bring shame to Papa.
00:03:44I'm certain she'll choose the finest husband there is.
00:03:50Power and wealth are all fleeting.
00:03:52In this life, I only want a good man by my side and a peaceful life.
00:04:07Why him?
00:04:12He's the commoner Serafina refused to marry in her previous life.
00:04:16Good heavens!
00:04:17Of all people, why did a peasant catch your weave?
00:04:21Sister, what awful luck is this?
00:04:24After all that, you choose a peasant.
00:04:27How's Papa supposed to hold his head up?
00:04:31Useless girl!
00:04:32Well, with everyone watching, you throw your wreath to a peasant.
00:04:36You wanted to shame me and our family, didn't you?
00:04:38Well, it's done.
00:04:40Don't be upset, sister.
00:04:42He's low-born, but decent-looking.
00:04:45Yet you've been spoiled all your life.
00:04:47With him, you'll have to work for everything now.
00:04:50This will be good.
00:04:51Is the eldest Miss Vos really going to marry a peasant?
00:04:55Everyone's watching!
00:04:57If she doesn't marry him, House Vos will lose all credibility.
00:05:00Who'll do business with them after this?
00:05:05Seize her!
00:05:06Don't let her get away!
00:05:07My lord, how come you have the wreath?
00:05:09Throw it away at once!
00:05:13I'm dressed so ragged, she'll never agree to marry me.
00:05:20Sister, why are you running?
00:05:21You threw the wreath yourself.
00:05:23No one forced you.
00:05:24Look at this peasant you've brought upon us!
00:05:27If he becomes Vox's son-in-law, our family's name is ruined!
00:05:31In my past life, I struggled in the Thorn House, used as a pawn by House Vos to climb the
00:05:36nobility.
00:05:37Now, I'd rather marry a commoner and live in peace.
00:05:40The wreath has chosen its match.
00:05:42Even if you don't want to.
00:05:44You must!
00:05:45I will marry him.
00:05:55I am Alara.
00:05:57What's yours?
00:06:00I'm Sion.
00:06:10With everyone here as my witness, I, Alara, will marry Sion.
00:06:22You truly want to be my wife?
00:06:25What else?
00:06:26The wreath is yours now.
00:06:29Are you backing out?
00:06:32I just...
00:06:33What?
00:06:34I'm not backing out.
00:06:36But I have nothing.
00:06:39Marry me and you'll have no home, no proper food.
00:06:42Do you still want to?
00:06:43We're able-bodied.
00:06:44We can earn what we need.
00:06:45Get a little more serious about work and you'll have no trouble getting by.
00:06:49I've never met a woman so easily contented.
00:06:52A filthy peasant and you treat him like something precious?
00:06:55Alara, think carefully.
00:06:59Marry a peasant and you ruin your life.
00:07:03Status doesn't make a future.
00:07:05Character does.
00:07:07Sion may be poorly dressed, but he's polite.
00:07:09He could well be a good match.
00:07:11And he doesn't seem to care what other people think.
00:07:14He's not afraid to speak his mind.
00:07:16And he's kind to the servants.
00:07:18You!
00:07:18The wreath chose him.
00:07:20Don't go back on your word now.
00:07:22Aye.
00:07:23Break the rules and you'll lose all respect.
00:07:25The eldest, Miss Vos, has to marry him.
00:07:26Marry him!
00:07:27Marry him!
00:07:28Marry him!
00:07:29If you're so set on this, don't you ever blame the Vos family.
00:07:33You'll have no part in our glory from now on.
00:07:36I understand, Father.
00:07:39The selection is over.
00:07:41You may all leave.
00:07:44Sister, don't say I didn't warn you.
00:07:47Marry a peasant and you'll always be beneath me.
00:07:50You'd better worry about yourself first.
00:07:53Life with the thorns won't be as easy as you think.
00:08:00You...
00:08:00Come to the Vos' sate in three days to ask for my hand.
00:08:03I'd just be pushed into choosing a consort if I return to the palace.
00:08:07Very well.
00:08:08I'll be there.
00:08:13On the day of the younger Miss Vos' wedding,
00:08:16her dowry includes a golden-jeweled crown,
00:08:19twelve sets of lace satin gowns,
00:08:22and three deeds for vineyards and wineries
00:08:25on the outskirts of the imperial capital.
00:08:29The younger Miss Vos has a priceless dowry,
00:08:32while the elder Miss Vos has nothing at all.
00:08:35What a huge difference between the two Vos daughters.
00:08:41Sister,
00:08:42if you really marry a beggar,
00:08:44you'll toil for the rest of your life.
00:08:46Wonder if you'll ever get used to it.
00:08:52The groom is here!
00:08:54It's the groom!
00:09:04Truly the younger Master Thorn.
00:09:06What a grand wedding procession.
00:09:08The Thorn family is so powerful.
00:09:10The younger Miss Vos will live in luxury,
00:09:13unlike the elder Miss Vos,
00:09:14who married a beggar and will suffer for the rest of her days.
00:09:18Mr. Vos, Mrs. Vos,
00:09:19my best regards to you both.
00:09:21That's a good lad.
00:09:23Rise, Lucian.
00:09:23My dear boy.
00:09:26Your wedding procession is the grandest sight in the entire imperial capital.
00:09:31It is the Vos family's great honour that our Serafina is so cherished by you.
00:09:36Sister,
00:09:37the Austratus hour has almost passed.
00:09:39Where is your husband?
00:09:40Could it be he's too afraid to come?
00:09:50What is he doing?
00:09:52He can't be serious.
00:09:53I humbly greet you, my lord.
00:09:59My lady.
00:10:08My lady.
00:10:10Has he come to beg or to wed?
00:10:13Showing up dressed like this is nothing but a disgrace.
00:10:16Compared to Lord Lucian, it's like heaven versus earth.
00:10:19What on earth are you wearing?
00:10:21In front of all these nobles, you're humiliating me.
00:10:24It's our sister's wedding day, yet you show up dressed like this.
00:10:26You're utterly pathetic.
00:10:29Sister, don't you feel ashamed?
00:10:32Marriage is about sincerity, not looks.
00:10:35The man I, Alara, have chosen cannot be swathed by others' idle words of others.
00:10:40Aren't you ashamed enough?
00:10:42My lord, calm your anger.
00:10:44Once Alara steps through this door today,
00:10:47she will have nothing to do with our Vos family ever again.
00:10:50The auspicious hour for the wedding has arrived.
00:10:52The bride shall board the carriage.
00:11:04Your ma...
00:11:09My lord!
00:11:11Congratulations.
00:11:12Your noble son-in-law is quite remarkable.
00:11:14Lord Chamberlain.
00:11:15Please come in.
00:11:19Did you truly walk here?
00:11:21On such a joyous day, you would make your bride walk back with you.
00:11:25I have never heard of such a thing.
00:11:27Truly.
00:11:28Unlike my husband...
00:11:34My lady.
00:11:35I've come to take you home.
00:11:49Before those who love you,
00:11:50I ask you both to speak your vows.
00:11:56Sian, do you take Alara to be your wife?
00:11:58To love and protect her for all your days?
00:12:01I do.
00:12:03Alara, do you take Sian to be your husband?
00:12:05To stand by him and trust him for all your days?
00:12:09I do.
00:12:13Is this the place you arranged for me?
00:12:17This place is far too shabby.
00:12:21Can anyone actually live here?
00:12:23Your majesty, this is simply to keep your identity hidden.
00:12:28Vows have been spoken.
00:12:30From this day forward, you are husband and wife.
00:12:35My lady.
00:12:36I apologize for forcing you to live in such humble quarters.
00:12:40I am not troubled at all.
00:12:42This place is peaceful and sheltered.
00:12:45If we keep it clean and tidy from now on,
00:12:48it will grow ever more warm and cozy.
00:12:56I have little of value to offer now.
00:12:58This pendant was left to me by my father,
00:13:00and I have carried it always.
00:13:02Now I give it to you.
00:13:04Such a precious thing.
00:13:06And you give it to me?
00:13:12You may rest assured.
00:13:14I will keep it safe.
00:13:34I want you.
00:13:45You are already becoming damp here.
00:13:50Do you want me?
00:13:52No.
00:14:17You are everything to me.
00:14:23I love you, too.
00:14:28You like that?
00:14:35Should I stop?
00:14:37No stopping.
00:14:50You're awake.
00:14:51Breakfast is ready.
00:14:52Come and eat.
00:14:59Where are you going?
00:15:02Today is the day I return home as a new bride.
00:15:04The gloves I embroidered for my parents still need a few more stitches.
00:15:07I have to go buy thread and needles to finish them before we get home.
00:15:11All right, I'll go with you.
00:15:21Your Majesty.
00:15:28Your Majesty.
00:15:29Your Majesty.
00:15:32Who are they?
00:15:34The Royal Court is far too complicated.
00:15:36I'll tell Alita about my identity once everything is settled.
00:15:40They're...
00:15:41They're here for Felix.
00:15:43He once served in the palace.
00:15:44And these are old acquaintances.
00:15:57Alara, I need to help Felix receive his guests.
00:16:00Will you be all right going to buy a loan?
00:16:05All right.
00:16:16Speak.
00:16:17What is the matter?
00:16:18The Queen Dowger is deeply troubled for you, Your Majesty.
00:16:21She has suddenly fainted.
00:16:22What?
00:16:23Felix.
00:16:24Stay here and protect Alara.
00:16:26Return to the palace with me.
00:16:30Send someone to select valuable gifts for the Vos estate, saying they are Alara's presence
00:16:35for her family visit.
00:16:38Yes, Your Majesty.
00:16:39Let us go.
00:16:42Father.
00:16:43Mother.
00:16:43Your daughter has returned.
00:16:48Sister.
00:16:50Why have you come back alone?
00:17:00Today is the family Fongwen Day.
00:17:03Could be that you're ashamed of your peasant husband and begint that Kohimtelai.
00:17:07My husband wished to come, but he was called away on urgent business.
00:17:10Miss Alara, you must have suffered greatly since marrying a peasant.
00:17:14You've gotten so thin.
00:17:15If you hadn't married that peasant, I might have taken you as my mistress.
00:17:19You wouldn't be in this state now.
00:17:20You needn't trouble yourselves.
00:17:21I am living quite well.
00:17:22As for you, sister, you haven't seen your own husband in days, have you?
00:17:26You!
00:17:27Damn Lucien.
00:17:28He went corralling on our wedding night, making it public knowledge.
00:17:32I've been thoroughly humiliated.
00:17:34Serafina.
00:17:35Papa!
00:17:36Mama!
00:17:38Father, Mother.
00:17:39How dare you come back alone?
00:17:41What is your husband doing all day?
00:17:42He won't even accompany you on your family visit.
00:17:45Mother, you give him far too much credit.
00:17:46That peasant is probably begging in the streets right now.
00:17:48He cannot be compared to my husband.
00:17:52Sir, I have brought something for you.
00:17:55Our Serafina has made such a fine match.
00:17:57It's the greatest blessing for our daughter to have wed such a worthy man.
00:18:01Not like some who chose a peasant for a husband.
00:18:04After all the Vos has done for you, you return with nothing?
00:18:06Quite so.
00:18:07This is my homecoming gift.
00:18:09Surely you're not so destitute you can't even bring a proper offering for your own family?
00:18:16Father, Mother, these are gloves I embroidered myself.
00:18:20Get out, you worthless thing!
00:18:24Sister, how dare you show your face with nothing but these tattered rags you stitch up?
00:18:29What else can you expect from someone married to a peasant?
00:18:31Her gifts match her status.
00:18:33Let it be.
00:18:34She's wed to a peasant now.
00:18:35What decent gift could we possibly expect from her?
00:18:38My lord, my lady, a gift has been sent by your son-in-law.
00:18:41He says it is a homecoming gift from the elder Ms. Vos.
00:18:46My lord, which powerful noble has the elder Ms. Vos won over?
00:18:50The steward from the palace sent me here personally.
00:18:53You must have great influence indeed.
00:18:58That was sent by the king himself.
00:19:00The king's own steward gave the order personally.
00:19:05This is for the elder Mrs. Vos.
00:19:12Mr. Morea, you must be mistaken.
00:19:15Everyone in the capital knows Elamra married a peasant.
00:19:18How could she have ties to the palace?
00:19:21This gift must surely be sent in honor of the younger Master Thorn.
00:19:24Quite right.
00:19:25Plenty of people across the realm seek to curry favor with House Thorn,
00:19:28even those in the palace.
00:19:30Please accept this, my lord.
00:19:32Serafina has truly married well.
00:19:34Just look at this grand homecoming and all these fine gifts.
00:19:37They honor the House of Vos.
00:19:39Yes, I have delivered the gifts.
00:19:41I shall take my leave, my lord.
00:19:43Farewell, Mr. Morea.
00:19:47Sister, my lord has brought such fine gifts.
00:19:50Aren't you ashamed to stand there beside them?
00:19:54It's not the value that matters, but the sincerity.
00:19:57I see nothing wrong with what I've done.
00:19:59I spared no effort raising you.
00:20:01And this is how you repay me.
00:20:05Marrying a peasant and insulting me with these trickets!
00:20:09House Vos has no place for a daughter as worthless as you!
00:20:14Is this why you humiliate me so?
00:20:16Simply because I married Kale?
00:20:17Serafina thinks of the family.
00:20:19You've only shamed House Vos by marrying a peasant.
00:20:21What honor!
00:20:23You only favor her because she married a nobleman.
00:20:26To you, your daughters are nothing but pawns to climb higher.
00:20:29How dare you speak to me like this!
00:20:39The Royal Eagle Pendant!
00:20:47I must go and inform the king at once.
00:20:52Give it back to me.
00:20:56This pendant is of fine quality.
00:20:58Did you steal it, sister?
00:21:01That pendant was given to me by Sian.
00:21:03Give it back!
00:21:04A peasant like him could never own something so fine.
00:21:08He must have stolen it.
00:21:09How dare you judge so quickly!
00:21:11Just because Kian is not of your station doesn't mean he can't possess this!
00:21:16You cling to a trinket from a peasant.
00:21:18How ignorant!
00:21:20You can have the pendant back.
00:21:21Only if you renounce House Vos.
00:21:26Father, how can you let Serafina act so wildly?
00:21:29I am your own daughter, too.
00:21:32You chose to marry a peasant and brought shame upon us.
00:21:35You are no daughter of mine.
00:21:37Seperthina is my only daughter.
00:21:42All I want is to live with someone who truly loves me.
00:21:45Simple days are better than this cold cruelty in the Vos.
00:21:49If that is how it is.
00:21:57I, Alara, sever all ties with House Vos.
00:22:00We are no longer family.
00:22:09Choosing a peasant over your own blood.
00:22:12Good ridden to you.
00:22:14That is what you truly think, Father.
00:22:16Why should I stay and be a nuisance?
00:22:21Hold.
00:22:22It's too late for you to leave now.
00:22:24Servants!
00:22:25Bring the hot coals from the kitchen and spread them on the floor.
00:22:32Gizzery.
00:22:33What are you doing?
00:22:35Your Majesty, Miss Alara is in danger at House Vos.
00:22:45You were raised by House Vos.
00:22:47If you wish to sever ties, you must first repay our kindness.
00:22:51My Lady, you speak truly.
00:22:54Looking at you now, you have nothing of value to offer.
00:22:57You shall walk across these coals barefoot instead.
00:23:00These coals burn so fiercely.
00:23:02How could anyone survive that?
00:23:04I will not.
00:23:10Oh?
00:23:12So it seems you no longer want this pendant.
00:23:15Don't throw it!
00:23:17Kale is the only one who has ever truly cared for me.
00:23:21This pendant belonged to his father.
00:23:23I cannot let his gift be disgraced.
00:23:27I'll do it.
00:23:28I'll walk.
00:23:39For a peasant, you would go this far?
00:23:43You've lost your mind!
00:23:44All this for a worthless trinket.
00:23:46Even the privileged Elder Miss Vos would walk across fire.
00:23:49No wonder she was foolish enough to marry a peasant.
00:23:52A peasant has little of worth.
00:23:54This pendant must be his most prized possession.
00:23:57No wonder you cling to it, sister.
00:23:59This pendant was left to me by my father, and I have carried it always.
00:24:03Now I give it to you.
00:24:08My lady, wait for me.
00:24:11Kale, rest assured, I will get the pendant back.
00:24:26Now, can you give me the pendant back?
00:24:29Want it?
00:24:31Then crawl for it.
00:24:33As long as you crawl,
00:24:36the pendant is yours.
00:24:49Look at you.
00:24:50This pendant was left to me by my father, and I have carried it always.
00:24:54Now I give it to you.
00:24:55You may rest assured.
00:24:57I will keep it safe.
00:25:19I will keep it safe.
00:25:26You cherish your relationship with that peasant so much.
00:25:30If your face is disfigured,
00:25:31will your beloved husband still want you?
00:25:34You!
00:25:36Why are you glaring at me?
00:25:37I've long said it.
00:25:40Marry a peasant,
00:25:41and you'll end up being trampled on!
00:25:44You go to such lengths to torment me.
00:25:47Do you really think you'll get what you want?
00:25:49I want you to live in the gutter for the rest of your life.
00:25:53Watching me become the most noble woman in the world.
00:26:07Behold the king!
00:26:14What?
00:26:16Who dares to touch my wife?
00:26:24Hey, Laura.
00:26:26I'm sorry.
00:26:27I'm late.
00:26:30Kael.
00:26:33I didn't lose your pendant.
00:26:36I was told the king was coming.
00:26:38Why is it him?
00:26:39This peasant, dressed so finely.
00:26:42Are these men royal guards?
00:26:44Why do they obey him?
00:26:46Mother, I heard his brother serves in the palace.
00:26:49Borrowing fine clothes is nothing.
00:26:51He must be putting on a show after being shamed at the wedding.
00:26:55Ridiculous!
00:26:55A peasant dares to put on a show in Vos Manor.
00:26:59Sister, your husband is already pathetic.
00:27:02Yet you dare steal royal treasures.
00:27:04If the king learns, will you two even live?
00:27:07You stubborn fools.
00:27:09You court death!
00:27:12Let's check!
00:27:17What do you want to do?
00:27:19Hey, Laura.
00:27:19Let's go.
00:27:23Laura, what's wrong?
00:27:29Who did this?
00:27:32I did.
00:27:33So what?
00:27:35I was only helping my sister.
00:27:37I never thought she'd be stupid enough to walk on hot coals for a worthless trinket.
00:27:41Shut up!
00:27:44Who are you to dare speak to me like this?
00:27:46So what if I insult her?
00:27:48She married a peasant.
00:27:50As Lady Thorne, you're nothing but insects.
00:27:52Even if I killed you today, you'd thank me on your knees.
00:27:55Let's see how much longer you can act.
00:27:57Seize this peasant and Alara!
00:28:00Get him!
00:28:01Stay away from him!
00:28:03Are you alright?
00:28:09Stand back!
00:28:10No!
00:28:13Dare to harm what's mine!
00:28:15Seize them!
00:28:23How dare you!
00:28:24I am Lady Thorne!
00:28:30My lord, help me!
00:28:32Guards!
00:28:33Whoever kills him shall have ten gold coins!
00:28:41Wretch!
00:28:42Lord Lucian is a distant relative of the royal family.
00:28:46If you dare lay a hand on him, you make an enemy of the Thorne.
00:28:50Royal kin or not.
00:28:52Harm my wife and you die!
00:28:57Cease this farce at once.
00:29:00Release me before I lose my temper and I may spare your life.
00:29:03You have tormented Alaxa horribly.
00:29:05Hold their faces in the fire!
00:29:07Guards!
00:29:08Guards!
00:29:11Get off of me!
00:29:13Stop!
00:29:13When the king's court arrives, you will pay dearly!
00:29:20See?
00:29:21My brother is the high judge of the realm.
00:29:24Offend me today and you will not live.
00:29:26We shall see who in the high court dares to shield you.
00:29:29Continue!
00:29:33Help me!
00:29:34No!
00:29:36Serafina!
00:29:37No!
00:29:38Fool!
00:29:39If you want to die, don't drag the Vos family down with you!
00:29:43Cease this at once!
00:29:46Brother, help me!
00:29:49Help me!
00:30:04You dare lay hands on my brother?
00:30:11What are the king's personal guard doing here?
00:30:13It is me!
00:30:15That voice.
00:30:16Could it be...
00:30:20The king!
00:30:24The king!
00:30:27The king?
00:30:28The king?
00:30:29The king?
00:30:29How could this peasant be the king?
00:30:31Brother!
00:30:32Don't be fooled by this peasant.
00:30:34His clothes are stolen.
00:30:36And these men are just paid thugs.
00:30:38Yes.
00:30:39You've only just taken office.
00:30:41It's easy to mistake him.
00:30:43He's truly a commoner.
00:30:45He cannot be the king!
00:30:46That's right.
00:30:47How could the king be here?
00:30:49Foolish girl!
00:30:51Look at the man you married!
00:30:52You've angered the Thorn!
00:30:54How will you end this?
00:30:56Lord Thorn, you must avenge us!
00:30:58This peasant and Alara are trying to kill us!
00:31:02Outrageous!
00:31:03How dare you run amok in the capital!
00:31:05Seize them!
00:31:05And throw them in prison for torture!
00:31:08Hold!
00:31:09What have you to say for yourself?
00:31:11I was unaware the office of High Judge had been given to you!
00:31:16You lowly cur!
00:31:17How dare you question a royal official!
00:31:20My brother was appointed High Judge by the king's mother herself.
00:31:24Now you fear for your life!
00:31:26To deceive even the Queen Dowda!
00:31:29The Thorn family has some nerve!
00:31:33Your Highness, you must avenge me!
00:31:36His Majesty has secretly pledged marriage to the Elder Miss Voss outside the palace!
00:31:41What?
00:31:42He even flew into a rage at me in public for that woman!
00:31:46His Majesty has married outside the palace?
00:31:52Prepare my carriage!
00:31:57Insolence!
00:31:58How dare you treat Hermidenus with such disrespect!
00:32:02How many heads do you have to dare act so recklessly?
00:32:06Lord Thorn, I beg you to see clearly, Elora is no longer one of us.
00:32:13The Voss family bears no responsibility for anything she says.
00:32:17That's right, Lord Thorn.
00:32:19We, Voss, have always abided by the law.
00:32:22We would never dare to speak ill of the royal family.
00:32:25You must see the truth!
00:32:26Impersonating royalty is a capital offense.
00:32:30You must not let them go, my lord!
00:32:32Elora, your husband has committed a heinous crime.
00:32:36No one can save you today!
00:32:39I cannot let Sian come to harm.
00:32:42Mercy, my lord!
00:32:43My husband did not mean to offend.
00:32:45My husband!
00:32:46Elora!
00:32:51Elora, let's go!
00:32:53Guards, stop them!
00:32:55Stand back, or you'll all be killed!
00:32:58Yes, my lord!
00:33:03Think you can leave?
00:33:05Not so easy!
00:33:07Not so easy!
00:33:22Sian!
00:33:24Serafina, how can you be so cruel?
00:33:27Sian has done nothing to you.
00:33:29This peasant tried to have my face ruined.
00:33:33I'll never let you get away with this!
00:33:35Sian!
00:33:36Sian!
00:33:38Stop staring.
00:33:40Your men are too busy to save you now.
00:33:43You're asking for death!
00:33:44Sian!
00:33:47Go now while you can!
00:33:51Elora, no.
00:33:52Leave?
00:33:53Does he think he can?
00:33:56Serafina, why won't you just leave me be?
00:34:00You're so lucky, sister.
00:34:02Even a peasant loves you truly.
00:34:04But the happier you are, the less I want you to have it!
00:34:07You!
00:34:09Serafina, our quarrel has nothing to do with others.
00:34:13Do what you want to me.
00:34:15But please, let Sian go.
00:34:17Elora, don't waste words on her.
00:34:18I can't drag you into this.
00:34:20How touching.
00:34:22Even now, you still have time to flirt with this peasant.
00:34:25Since you love each other so deeply.
00:34:29I'll send you both together!
00:34:31Hurry up and finish them.
00:34:33Go to hell!
00:34:35Elora, look out!
00:34:38The Queen Dowager!
00:34:41Who dares touch my son, the king?
00:34:48Is he truly the king?
00:34:52He is really the king.
00:34:55Elora, Elora!
00:34:56Fetch the royal medicine!
00:34:58Hurry!
00:34:59Your Majesty!
00:35:01Felix, take Elora back to the palace at once for treatment.
00:35:05If anything happens to her, there will be hell to pay.
00:35:09Yes, Your Majesty.
00:35:18Your Majesty, the entire Vos family has been arrested.
00:35:22My son.
00:35:25Your Majesty.
00:35:26What?
00:35:27You called him...
00:35:28The king?
00:35:28But he's just a peasant!
00:35:30By my order,
00:35:32Elias Vos and his family shall be executed on the spot!
00:35:37My lady!
00:35:38My lady!
00:35:40Darius, as the High Judge of the Realm,
00:35:43has abused his power and aided the wicked.
00:35:47From this day forth,
00:35:49he is stripped of his title
00:35:51and shall be imprisoned in the dungeons alongside Lucien!
00:35:54Mercy, Your Majesty!
00:35:56Mercy, Your Majesty!
00:35:57Spare me, Your Highness!
00:35:59Spare me, Your Majesty!
00:36:01I was too blind to recognize you!
00:36:06Did you ever think this day would come
00:36:08when you humiliated Elora?
00:36:11Even in this second life,
00:36:12I've chosen wrong again.
00:36:14Your Highness,
00:36:15my crimes were instigated by the Vos family!
00:36:18Your Highness,
00:36:18for the sake of my father,
00:36:20spare me one time, Earl Thorne!
00:36:22Spare us, Your Majesty and Your Highness!
00:36:24I beg mercy of Your Majesty and Your Highness!
00:36:27Spare us, Your Highness!
00:36:30Your Majesty,
00:36:32the two Thorn sons are foolish,
00:36:35but not the masterminds.
00:36:37They deserve leniency.
00:36:38As for the Vos,
00:36:39common as they are,
00:36:41executing the entire household is excessive.
00:36:44Elora is gravely injured.
00:36:46You should go and tend to her.
00:37:15You should go and tend to her.
00:37:16I'm fine, Elora.
00:37:42Lie back first.
00:37:44The Royal Physician said
00:37:45you mustn't strain your wound.
00:37:46The Royal Physician?
00:37:49What do you mean?
00:37:52Are we in the palace right now?
00:37:54Yes.
00:37:55The Queen Dowager saved us.
00:37:58The Queen Down Dowager?
00:38:01You intend to make Elora your queen?
00:38:04Yes, Mother.
00:38:06Elora and I have pledged ourselves
00:38:07to each other in secret.
00:38:09I will never allow it!
00:38:10Whether you approve or not,
00:38:12I will make Elorna my queen.
00:38:15You!
00:38:20If you truly insist on making her your queen,
00:38:23she must pass my test.
00:38:26You!
00:38:28If you truly insist on making her your queen,
00:38:31she must pass my test.
00:38:32But until then,
00:38:33she must never learn your true identity.
00:38:35Otherwise,
00:38:36I will find countless ways
00:38:37to keep you apart.
00:38:38Her Highness was out riding
00:38:39and past Vos Manor.
00:38:41She saved us.
00:38:42What about my father and the others?
00:38:44Her Highness ordered their punishment.
00:38:47Lucien received 50 lashes.
00:38:48His constitution was already weak
00:38:50from constant debauchery.
00:38:51He fainted on the spot
00:38:53and is now under house arrest.
00:38:55Your sister has been sent
00:38:56to the Royal House of Correction
00:38:57for hard labor.
00:38:59As for your father and the rest,
00:39:01they have all been exiled.
00:39:03Exiled?
00:39:03Don't worry, Elora.
00:39:05I will protect you from now on.
00:39:07I'll serve as a palace guard
00:39:08and you'll work in the Royal Maid's Quarters.
00:39:11Okay.
00:39:12We'll work here for three to five years
00:39:13and when we've saved enough,
00:39:15we'll leave the palace
00:39:16and live a simple life.
00:39:17Elora,
00:39:17I hope you can forgive me.
00:39:27See,
00:39:28what's wrong?
00:39:31Is it your wound?
00:39:35The wound on your back?
00:39:40It's all because of me.
00:39:46It's nothing.
00:39:47Just a slight pull.
00:39:50It doesn't hurt.
00:39:53Don't lie.
00:39:55I saw the blood.
00:39:57You only got hurt protecting me.
00:40:00Gail,
00:40:01I'm so sorry.
00:40:02It means you can know right now.
00:40:03Don't ever do that again.
00:40:05It breaks my heart.
00:40:06Do you understand?
00:40:08Do you understand?
00:40:11My sweet girl,
00:40:12it doesn't matter.
00:40:14As long as you're safe,
00:40:15it's all worth it.
00:40:17Elora,
00:40:17with you by my side,
00:40:18I fear no wound.
00:40:23Just heal well.
00:40:24When you're better,
00:40:25we'll face everything together, alright?
00:40:30I'll take good care of you too.
00:40:32I won't let you hurt anymore.
00:40:37This is the housekeeping department.
00:40:40Elora,
00:40:41I'll come see you whenever I can.
00:40:44Alright.
00:40:48You're matched.
00:40:57You're here at the housekeeping department.
00:40:59Why didn't you let me know beforehand?
00:41:01This is Lady Elena,
00:41:03head maid of the housekeeping department.
00:41:06If you need anything,
00:41:07just let her know.
00:41:10Greetings,
00:41:11Lady Elena.
00:41:12This is Elora,
00:41:13a new maid.
00:41:15I'd be grateful if you could look after her,
00:41:17Lady Elena.
00:41:17You have my word.
00:41:19I shall take good care of Lady Elora
00:41:21and see she is given no heavy work.
00:41:28Sian,
00:41:29I came here to be a maid.
00:41:31So why do I feel more like a lady?
00:41:37She's...
00:41:39She's...
00:41:41She's probably...
00:41:42Kind.
00:41:49Elora,
00:41:50come with me.
00:41:54Go ahead.
00:42:05You,
00:42:06wash all these clean.
00:42:09We're all maids here,
00:42:10and the work is assigned fairly.
00:42:12Why should I do your share?
00:42:14Don't you dare ask!
00:42:15It's all because of you that I'm stuck cleaning the chamber pots.
00:42:18God knows what underhanded tricks you use to get in here.
00:42:21And Lady Elena
00:42:22just handed you all the light work on a silver platter.
00:42:44Give it back to me!
00:42:48The Royal Eagle Pendant.
00:42:50Only the king wears that.
00:42:51Fetch Lady Elamon at once.
00:42:53Someone has stolen royal property.
00:42:55What king?
00:42:56Just give it back to me.
00:42:58Give it back to me!
00:42:59No!
00:43:00No!
00:43:03Let go of me!
00:43:05It hurts!
00:43:06Give it back!
00:43:07Give it back!
00:43:18You vile wretch!
00:43:23Seize her at once!
00:43:31I didn't steal it!
00:43:33The pendant really is mine!
00:43:35Stop your crying!
00:43:37You look you're crying!
00:43:39You lowly thing still dare to argue!
00:43:42Cease this instant!
00:43:50You're in the middle of the night!
00:43:52The housekeeping department are humble.
00:43:54I fear it may harm your royal person.
00:43:57Allow me to announce you first.
00:43:59There is no need.
00:44:00I have disguised myself as head maid
00:44:02to see Allura's true nature with my own eyes.
00:44:04She must not learn my identity.
00:44:06Cease this instant!
00:44:17Palace rules are strict.
00:44:21I leave but a moment.
00:44:23And you grow so bold?
00:44:25What place do you think this is?
00:44:28Lady Elena, Allura, has stolen a royal pendant!
00:44:33Theft is the worst crime in the palace.
00:44:36Fearing exposure?
00:44:39She tried to harm me!
00:44:41You must punish her severely!
00:44:45Lady Elena, hear me out.
00:44:47It is not what it seems.
00:44:49Enough!
00:44:50Bring me the pendant.
00:44:54This pendant is mine.
00:44:55I said, hand over the pendant.
00:45:11Royal Eagle Pendant!
00:45:13This truly belongs to the king!
00:45:16The Royal Eagle Pendant!
00:45:18This truly belongs to the king!
00:45:21The king has actually given her something so vital.
00:45:23If she dares steal the king's own pendant,
00:45:26who knows what she'll do next.
00:45:27By palace law,
00:45:28theft worth more than one gold coin
00:45:30calls for the left foot to be cut off
00:45:32and the mark of a thief branded on her face.
00:45:36Madam, this pendant was a gift from my dearest one.
00:45:39I never stole it.
00:45:41I truly had no idea.
00:45:44It belonged to the king.
00:45:46If this pendant is proven to be the king's,
00:45:49his identity will be exposed.
00:45:52One piece of evidence alone does not prove theft.
00:45:55I will uncover the truth.
00:45:58Until then, the pendant shall remain in my custody.
00:46:03If you are innocent, you shall have justice.
00:46:06Thank you, madam.
00:46:08This is the new head maid, Vera.
00:46:11She will oversee the housekeeping department with me from now on.
00:46:14All of you behave yourselves.
00:46:15Anyone found slacking or causing trouble
00:46:18will be punished by palace law.
00:46:21Yes.
00:46:25You've caused quite a disturbance.
00:46:27As punishment, you shall clean the chamber pops.
00:46:30Until you've finished, only then may you eat.
00:46:36Yes, madam.
00:46:45That should do it.
00:46:52Your Majesty, Lady Cordelia has arrived at the palace again.
00:46:56Will you see her?
00:46:57No.
00:46:58Send her back where she came from.
00:47:00Leave me.
00:47:02I am going to see Alara.
00:47:04If you come with me, my cover will be blown.
00:47:05I am going to see you soon.
00:47:11Alara.
00:47:15Kale?
00:47:16Why are you here?
00:47:17How could Lady Elena make you do such work?
00:47:19I'm going to have a word with her.
00:47:24I'm going to find her.
00:47:26Kale?
00:47:30It's just cleaning chamber pots.
00:47:33It's nothing.
00:47:35Alara.
00:47:36I...
00:47:37I...
00:47:37I...
00:47:41I hate to see you treated this way.
00:47:43I will get you out of here as soon as I can.
00:47:47Oh, that's right.
00:47:49What exactly is the pendant you gave me?
00:47:51Why do they all keep saying it belongs to the king?
00:47:53I...
00:47:53My father once served as a palace guard.
00:47:56He was awarded this pendant by the king as a reward for his service.
00:47:58That's why it bears the royal mark.
00:48:00I see.
00:48:01They kept going on about it being the king's.
00:48:03I thought you might have lied to me.
00:48:08Who goes there?
00:48:11You must go at once.
00:48:13It's Lady Vera.
00:48:14Don't let her see you.
00:48:15Tomorrow.
00:48:16I shall come to see you tomorrow.
00:48:17I'll...
00:48:27I'll...
00:48:33I'll...
00:48:37I'll...
00:48:46why are you throwing my things away lady vera has given her direct order you must bring her a pot
00:48:51of tea brewed with morning dew at first light and it must be a full jug morning dew a whole
00:48:56jug
00:48:59morning dew a whole jug
00:49:04everyone heard me i'm not making this up why is lady vera targeting me like this lady vera has
00:49:11been merciful enough not to punish you for stealing the pendant collecting morning dew is a light task
00:49:16you should be grateful the pendant was never stolen how dare you slander me if it wasn't
00:49:22stolen did the king gave it to you personally hola who did this steward felix why is he here

01:09:06brother alara is the one who truly wronged you
01:09:09instead of blaming each other
01:09:10we should find a way to destroy her
01:09:12alara

01:09:15how are we supposed to take her down
01:09:18i saw her in the institute
01:09:20she still wears a maid's uniform
01:09:22she is not favored at all
01:09:23could the king's affection for her be only a fleeting insacuation
01:09:26of course
01:09:27if the king truly loved her
01:09:29why would he keep her as a maid
01:09:31the royal spring garden party is next month

01:13:46and they tried to hide it when discovered
01:13:49so bold in broad daylight

01:13:55your highness
01:13:57the guard and i shared mutual affection

01:16:26attempted to murder the queen dowager
01:16:28young master lucian
01:16:29blocked

01:16:31and the assassin fled

01:16:42we arrest alara to stand trial at the court
01:16:53your grace
01:16:54your grace the prisoner has been brought forth
01:16:56your grace
01:16:59so this is the woman who caused cordelia to be sent into the marital alliance
01:17:05your grace
01:17:06she is the one in charge of this entire spring banquet
01:17:09how dare you
01:17:10you arranged assassins to strike at the queen dowager during the banquet
01:17:13what is your treacherous intent
01:17:15i am innocent by the identity of every attendant at the banquet
01:17:18i have no idea how the assassin infiltrated
01:17:20of course you know nothing
01:17:21you were meeting with the guard in secret before the banquet
01:17:23you clearly disregarded the queen dowager's safety
01:17:27what
01:17:27hang her
01:17:28such
01:17:32treachery
01:17:35my lord
01:17:36i truly did not collude with assassins
01:17:38continue the torture
01:17:39my lord i can testify
01:17:41the guard was seen within the palace gardens
01:17:43why has alara not come
01:18:00your grace the prisoner has been delivered
01:18:14with the assassins in secret
01:18:28If Lucian had not acted swiftly to shield Hermidus, you would deserve death ten times over.
01:18:35Your Grace, I know nothing of the assassins.
01:18:39Grant me time and I will uncover the truth.
01:18:44Enough!
01:18:48Enough!
01:18:49Elara colloos with the guard.
01:18:52You have discarded the Queen Doucher's safety.
01:18:55Execute both of them at once.
01:19:02My lord, I beg you to revoke this order.
01:19:06My lord, thank you.
01:19:10Cyan, I'm truly sorry.
01:19:14I'm the one who got you into this mess.
01:19:16See you, my lord.
01:19:31I would like to see who dares touch her.
01:19:38The king!
01:19:42Your majesty.
01:19:53Your majesty.
01:19:58Impossible.
01:19:58How dare you!
01:20:01You would execute the innocent without inquiring.
01:20:05Is this how you serve your post?
01:20:11You have plotted against Elara at every turn.
01:20:15Had I not been here, your scheme, Spotilith, would have prevailed.
01:20:20Your majesty, I never, never sought to harm my sister.
01:20:24Your majesty.
01:20:25Elara was in charge of the spring banquet.
01:20:27By allowing an assassin to enter the palace and attempt on the Dauturge Empress' life, her
01:20:30crime is unforgivable.
01:20:31I beg you, sire.
01:20:33Throw her into the dungeon immediately for harsh interrogation.
01:20:36The duke is right.
01:20:37If Lord Lucien hadn't stepped in take that blade today, the Dautur Empress would surely
01:20:40have been lost.
01:20:40Your majesty, my life means nothing, but Elara must be punished.
01:20:47If such incidents recur, who shall safeguard the royal palace?
01:20:53I beg your majesty.
01:20:56To punish Elara without fail.
01:21:00Lucien, how dare you!
01:21:04Presumed to make decisions in my stead.
01:21:08Her highness has suffered great fright today.
01:21:10If your majesty spares Elara, others will follow her example with disastrous consequences.
01:21:19I beg your majesty to punish her!
01:21:21We beg your majesty to punish Elara!
01:21:24I beg your majesty to punish Elara!
01:21:29Oh, if I present proof of Elara's innocence, what penalty shall you all face?
01:21:41Impossible!
01:21:49Duke of Clifton, I'm talking to you!
01:21:54If I have wrongfully accused Elara,
01:21:59I willingly accept the same punishment as her!
01:22:03Very well.
01:22:05Bring them in!
01:22:14Your majesty,
01:22:17I had spies stationed long ago, and the assassin has been apprehended.
01:22:21My majesty, have mercy.
01:22:24Serafina and Lucien ordered the attack on her highness.
01:22:29Serafina and Lucien, I was forced to obey!
01:22:33My majesty, have mercy.
01:22:36Serafina and Lucien, I have served this kingdom faithfully for decades.
01:22:48Serafina and Lucien, I have served this kingdom faithfully for decades.
01:22:49With utter devotion!
01:22:51You cannot treat me so cruelly!
01:22:56My majesty!
01:23:02As for the two of you, your majesty, this is none of my business!
01:23:06It was all her!
01:23:07You lie!
01:23:08Your majesty, I was only jealous of my sister.
01:23:10The plot to assassinate the queen dowager was entirely Lucien's idea.
01:23:14Even his act of shielding her highness was a pretendess he staged himself!
01:23:19Bitch!
01:23:21How dare you betray me!
01:23:25Enough!
01:23:27Lucien and Serafina,
01:23:29as the masterminds of this conspiracy,
01:23:31you shall be executed on the spot.
01:23:34The assassin mage shall be imprisoned in the royal dungeon pending further judgment.
01:23:38Your majesty, grant me mercy!
01:23:41Alara, I hate you!
01:23:43None of this would have happened if not for you!
01:23:45All of this should have been mine!
01:23:47You are wrong.
01:23:48You brought this ruin upon yourself, not me.
01:23:52Your fate today is entirely of your own making.
01:24:01Alara, I...
01:24:05So your majesty, what is your true name?
01:24:08My name is Kale.
01:24:10My name is Kale.
01:24:13Kale...
01:24:13The culprits have now been brought to justice.
01:24:17At last, your majesty and your queen shall be united at last.
01:24:22Queen?
01:24:26From this day forth, I crown you my queen.
01:24:37Effective immediately, there is only one sovereign in my royal household.
01:24:41And that is my queen, Alara.
01:24:45Long live the king! Long live the queen!
01:24:58My god!
01:25:00She looks beautiful!
01:25:10Do not be nervous, my love. You are as radiant as a heavenly maiden today.
01:25:15It still feels like a dream.
01:25:18Kale, will you truly marry me?
01:25:21I will make you my one and only queen, to rule this kingdom beside me.
01:25:35Today, your majesty, King Kale, unites with Alara Vos in holy matrimony.
01:25:41May heaven bear witness to their union.
01:25:48This ring represents my eternal vow to you.
01:25:51Loyalty, exclusivity and devotion until death.
01:25:55Now your majesty, you may kiss your queen.
01:26:08Today, I officially crown Alara of House Vos as queen of this realm.
01:26:13She is my one and only wife, the sovereign mister of my kingdom.
01:26:16May heaven bless you both.
01:26:19May your love endure forever, and your union be eternal.
01:26:22All live the king and queen!
01:26:25All live the king and queen!
