00:00:00I disguised myself and took my sister's place in the palace as a consort.
00:00:03Just so she could be with her true love and live happily ever after.
00:00:07The emperor had been obsessed with her for ages.
00:00:09And made me a noble consort showering me with affection.
00:00:12But her so-called true love changed after they married.
00:00:15And started abusing her.
00:00:16I am the one who brought glory and honor to the family.
00:00:19While she is just a nobody in the dirt.
00:00:22Now she has had a wake up call.
00:00:23And blames me for stealing everything that was hers.
00:00:26She sneaked into the palace as a maid.
00:00:28Your Majesty!
00:00:31I am the real Ashley Judd!
00:00:33That woman by your side is a total imposter!
00:00:36My dear sister, life with that broke lover boy must have been rough, wasn't it?
00:00:40You finally couldn't take it anymore and came crawling back to me.
00:00:43Your Majesty, I have always had feelings for you.
00:00:46I was framed back then.
00:00:48And someone stole my identity.
00:00:50It took me so long to escape and see you.
00:00:52Oh my god, this maid looks exactly like her highness.
00:00:56Who is the real noble consort?
00:01:01If you don't believe me, I'll have to prove my innocence with my life today!
00:01:05Stop!
00:01:11You claim you are Ashley Judd.
00:01:13Got any proof?
00:01:14At the Golden Mirror Polo Gala.
00:01:16Your Majesty, you promised me a lifetime together.
00:01:19That matter was between just you and me.
00:01:21No one else ever knew it.
00:01:26The Golden Mirror Polo Gala
00:01:30She never mentioned anything about that to me.
00:01:33Looking at Silas now, he clearly doesn't believe me anymore.
00:01:43I've had enough of being a noble consort.
00:01:46Now that the real Ashley is here.
00:01:48If your Majesty wishes to have me executed, or demoted to the Cold Palace, I have no objection.
00:01:57Silas Chase has always hated being lied to the most.
00:02:00Ashley Judd knew exactly where his weakness lay.
00:02:02That is why she dared expose me in public.
00:02:07Who are you?
00:02:13Your Majesty, she is my half-sister.
00:02:16Her name is Sophia Judd.
00:02:17She is the one who framed me.
00:02:23The noble consort has breached court etiquette.
00:02:26She shall kneel in the Imperial Garden as punishment do not rise without a decree.
00:02:32Thank you for your great mercy.
00:02:36Your Highness, what is going on between you and His Majesty?
00:02:40In the past, even if you smashed the tribute of Porcelain Vos from the neighboring kingdom,
00:02:44His Majesty would only scold you lightly.
00:02:46How could he bear to do this today?
00:02:47Ian.
00:02:48You've never actually seen my real face, have you?
00:02:51Ah, I wouldn't dare.
00:02:54I beg your Highness to spare my life.
00:03:01What is the time?
00:03:06Your Highness, it is around 8.40 in the evening.
00:03:09You fainted in the Imperial Garden and have been unconscious for two days.
00:03:18Your Highness, His Majesty has just conferred the title of Noble Lady Ashley upon her.
00:03:26Noble Lady Ashley.
00:03:27Just two days and she has already broken ancestral rules.
00:03:30She was promoted to Noble Lady and granted the courtesy character, His Majesty must truly hold deep affection for her.
00:03:35Your Highness, you, you are not angry.
00:03:38Angry?
00:03:38Why would I get angry?
00:03:39I am going to congratulate His Majesty on winning such a beauty, Ian.
00:03:43Attend to me for a change of attire.
00:03:44I have known His Majesty long before.
00:03:47That bond we share is entirely unlike the ties you ladies hold with him.
00:03:50Huh.
00:03:55Ashley is new to the palace.
00:03:56Her manners might be a bit lacking.
00:03:57I hope you'll forgive her.
00:04:09Sophia, you are injured.
00:04:11You could have sent a servant to deliver your message.
00:04:13You don't need to come in person quick.
00:04:14Bring her a seat.
00:04:17I actually hadn't planned on coming.
00:04:19But I had to congratulate His Majesty on his new lovely acquisition.
00:04:26Your Highness, you really have no shame.
00:04:28You stole someone's identity to enter the palace.
00:04:31Now the real one is sitting right here and you still have the nerve to offer congratulations.
00:04:34If I had committed such shameless acts, I'd just die on the spot.
00:04:39So she was a stand.
00:04:41And no wonder.
00:04:42Noble Lady Ashley, don't speak nonsense.
00:04:45I am not speaking nonsense.
00:04:47Your Highness, if you are so eager to be a thief, don't be afraid of being exposed.
00:04:51Noble Lady Ashley, you are right.
00:04:54What isn't yours will never be yours.
00:04:57I sincerely wish you and His Majesty a long and happy union and a swift air.
00:05:04The noble consort behaved arrogantly.
00:05:06And spoken recklessly, she shall be confined to the Hall of Joy's Blessings for half a month.
00:05:09His Majesty dotes exclusively on Noble Lady Ashley.
00:05:13Now, Your Highness, why must you provoke Noble Lady Ashley at this time?
00:05:17You misunderstand.
00:05:19I truly mean it.
00:05:21Sorry.
00:05:28These fair-weather scoundrels.
00:05:30His Majesty takes Noble Lady Ashley out every day.
00:05:34And they really think Your Highness has fallen from favor.
00:05:36Now they won't even provide the silver-thread charcoal to Hall of Joy's Blessing.
00:05:40This is simply outrageous.
00:05:42No need for night watch tonight, all of you.
00:05:44Go and rest.
00:05:58Silas, doesn't he stay overnight with Ashley every day?
00:06:02How could he appear here in the dead of night?
00:06:06You are truly so heartless.
00:06:08Not a shred of affection.
00:06:10Will you spare for me?
00:06:12Ashley.
00:06:15Don't call me Ashley!
00:06:18I am Sophia.
00:06:29Don't dodge.
00:06:30Let me hold you for a bit.
00:06:33Your Majesty, you have already found your beloved.
00:06:35Instead of sharing the bed with my sister, you come to me.
00:06:39Amir's standing in the dead of night.
00:06:44If you wish, you can be Ashley Judd.
00:06:49As long as you are willing, in this world, you shall be the one and only Ashley Judd.
00:06:55What he means is, for me, he can get rid of the real Ashley Judd.
00:06:59Your Majesty, have you heard the rumors on the street?
00:07:03The Judd family has two daughters.
00:07:04The legitimate one is a stunning beauty, pursued by countless admirers.
00:07:08But that illegitimate one is hideously ugly.
00:07:10Not only is her face dark, but her features are all crooked.
00:07:13Your Majesty, you haven't seen my real face, have you?
00:07:16Would you like to take a look?
00:07:20Your Majesty, you haven't seen my real face, have you?
00:07:23You are just putting on an air of mystery.
00:07:24Think you can just make up some hideous lie, and I'll let you off the hook.
00:07:28Whether I am putting on an air of mystery or not, you can see for yourself.
00:07:35How is this possible?
00:07:37She turned out so stunning.
00:07:39Even more beautiful than Ashley.
00:07:40Your Majesty, this is my real face.
00:07:43I am Sophia Judd, the illegitimate daughter of the Judd family.
00:07:46Now you've seen my face clearly, and it is unworthy to be Ashley's subside.
00:07:51I beg your Majesty to issue the decree soon and banish me to the Cold Palace to fulfill your and
00:07:55my sister's legendary romance.
00:07:58Banish you to the Cold Palace in your dreams?
00:08:00Let go of me, isn't it?
00:08:01Ashley Judd, whom you love, why don't you go to her?
00:08:03I am the Son of Heaven.
00:08:05Whoever I want, must stay by my side.
00:08:07Since you took her place to enter the palace for the rest of your life, you can only be my
00:08:12woman.
00:08:13Insane, he doesn't love anyone at all.
00:08:15He only loves himself, and that ridiculous need for control.
00:08:19So you have taken a fancy to my real face, huh?
00:08:21How dare you!
00:08:34Your Majesty, it is late.
00:08:36Shall we prepare the carriage to return to noble lady Ashley's place?
00:08:40Her Highness has sent someone to urge us twice already.
00:08:43Sophia Judd, why is it that every time I close my eyes now, all I can see is her face?
00:08:49I actually find Ashley's face somewhat dull and uninteresting now.
00:08:56We're not going to return to the Hall of Mental Cultivation.
00:09:02Sophia Judd, she has been deceiving me all this time.
00:09:05That face, those eyes.
00:09:07So you have taken a fancy to my real face, huh?
00:09:11Your Majesty, up ahead is the Palace of Pure Belle where noble lady Ashley resides.
00:09:17The maid from her quarters came to urge us again.
00:09:19Her Highness has prepared your favorite tea, Frost Vale, Jade.
00:09:23To the Palace of Pure Belle.
00:09:28Your Majesty, you are finally here.
00:09:31I've been waiting anxiously.
00:09:33I was starting to think some fox spirit had caught your fancy.
00:09:36I once thought this face looked utterly pitiable and charming.
00:09:38But now, looking at it, it just seems so plain.
00:09:41Even a bit contrived.
00:09:44Your Majesty, it is late.
00:09:48Let me attend to your rest.
00:09:50Let go of me, isn't it Ashley Judd, whom you love?
00:09:53Why don't you go to her?
00:09:58Your Majesty, what is wrong?
00:10:01Have I done something wrong?
00:10:05I've been handling court affairs all day.
00:10:07I am utterly exhausted.
00:10:08I am not in mood for anything else.
00:10:10Your Majesty, let me massage your shoulders.
00:10:13I said I am tired.
00:10:14If you can't behave, I'll return to the Hall of Mental Cultivation now.
00:10:19Got it.
00:10:20I'll do as you say.
00:10:25What did you say?
00:10:26His Majesty went to the Hall of Joyous Blessing last night.
00:10:29Yes, I spent some silver to ask Eunuch Leon's underling Eunuch for the information.
00:10:33His Majesty stayed at the Hall of Joyous Blessing for a long time and looked awful when he left.
00:10:38That wretch Sophia Judd is under house arrest.
00:10:40Yet she dares to seduce His Majesty.
00:10:43I can't let her ruin my plans.
00:10:45Pass my order to the Imperial Household Department.
00:10:48Cut off all charcoal, winter clothes, and daily supplies for the Hall of Joyous Blessing.
00:10:53Let's see how long she can last.
00:10:56Your Highness, those servants at the Imperial Household Department said Noble Lady Ashley gave the order.
00:11:01Now, they won't even give us the lowest grade charcoal they mean to freeze us to death.
00:11:07Your Highness, what are you doing?
00:11:09You'll catch a chill.
00:11:10If I am not seriously ill, how can I make Her Majesty take pity on me?
00:11:13Ian, go to the Imperial Medical Academy and fetch a physician.
00:11:16Remember, make sure to cry pitifully on the way.
00:11:18You must let the people at the Hall of Phoenix Grace hear you.
00:11:21I understand.
00:11:22I understand.
00:11:30Why is it so freezing here?
00:11:32There is not even a brazier in this hall.
00:11:37Pay... pay my respects to Your Majesty.
00:11:41Lie down quickly.
00:11:42You are terribly ill.
00:11:44Why didn't you send someone to the Palace of Phoenix Dignity to inform me?
00:11:47I am a condemned person.
00:11:48I dare not trouble Your Majesty.
00:11:50Noble Lady Ashley enjoys His Majesty's favor now.
00:11:53I only beg to barely survive in the Hall of Joyous Blessing.
00:11:55I have no intention of competing for favor.
00:11:58Ashley Judd has only been favored for a few days.
00:12:01Yet she dares to overstep and mistreat a noble consort.
00:12:03She simply doesn't regard me with any respect.
00:12:06Don't worry.
00:12:08I am the true mistress of the Herald.
00:12:10I won't allow anyone to trample on you like this.
00:12:12I shall redress all wrongs done to you.
00:12:18I've already dealt with those useless servants at the Imperial Household Department.
00:12:22If you need anything in the future, just send someone to the Palace of Phoenix Dignity to get it.
00:12:26I am deeply grateful for Your Majesty's life.
00:12:29Saving Grace.
00:12:30Had it not been for Your Majesty, I am afraid I would not have survived this winter.
00:12:33We're both in the harem, we should look out for each other.
00:12:36It is just you are far too stubborn.
00:12:39His Majesty was in a fit of rage.
00:12:41You should have just softened up a bit.
00:12:43Why suffer such torment?
00:12:44Your Majesty, it is not that I am stubborn, but I've seen through it.
00:12:48His Majesty's heart and eyes are now filled with only noble Lady Ashley.
00:12:51My face would only be an eyesore to him.
00:12:55I've already given up hope.
00:12:57I only wish to live out my days safely within these deep palace walls.
00:13:00You truly can let it go.
00:13:02What if I can't, Your Majesty?
00:13:04You are the mistress of the harem naturally.
00:13:07You see things more clearly than I do.
00:13:09I fear what noble Lady Ashley craves is, far more than merely His Majesty's affection.
00:13:14These past few days relying on His Majesty's favor,
00:13:17Ashley has not only meddled in the affairs of the Imperial Household Department,
00:13:20but even daring to be late for morning greetings, she is indeed growing more and more arrogant.
00:13:25Your Majesty, I come from a humble background.
00:13:27To have what I have today is already a great fortune.
00:13:29I have no desire to fight for favor, let alone covet the Empress's throne.
00:13:32If Your Majesty does not find me unworthy,
00:13:34I am willing to become a blade in Your Majesty's hand to share your burdens.
00:13:37You are so smart.
00:13:38I like smart people.
00:13:41Focus on recovering your health.
00:13:43The harem is full of hidden dangers.
00:13:44To live safely, relying solely on forbearance is not enough.
00:13:48I understand.
00:13:49I am willing to follow Your Majesty's lead in all things.
00:13:55Actually, Judd, you think having Silas chase his favor means you can strudder around harem, huh?
00:14:01You'll soon find out what happens to those who cross Her Majesty.
00:14:07Your Majesty, look how lovely these red plum blossoms are.
00:14:11I still recall that, on the snow mountain years ago, there grew a proud, unyielding red plum blossom.
00:14:17Just like this one.
00:14:19Indeed, that year, I was pursued by assassins and fell into a snowy ravine.
00:14:24If not for your desperate rest, I likely wouldn't have survived.
00:14:27At that moment, I wasn't thinking of anything.
00:14:29I just thought I must save Your Majesty.
00:14:31Even if it meant death, I would have perished together with Your Majesty.
00:14:36I remember, I had a high fever that wouldn't break, to keep me warm.
00:14:41You gave me the very clothes you were wearing next to your skin, back then.
00:14:45Did you get frostbite near your collarbone?
00:14:48Frostbite near the collarbone?
00:14:49How come I don't know about that?
00:14:50It was Sophia!
00:14:51That wretched woman who saved him, I merely stole the credit from her!
00:14:54No, I can't let him find out.
00:14:58Yeah, yes.
00:14:59It was so cold, then I can't quite remember clearly.
00:15:02You can't remember, but that was a frostbite deep enough to see bone.
00:15:06How could you not remember?
00:15:08Your Majesty, it was so long ago I...
00:15:12I used premium scar removal cream afterward.
00:15:15There is not a mark left at all.
00:15:17Return to your palace now.
00:15:19Your Majesty!
00:15:22It is over.
00:15:24Has he sensed something?
00:15:27Number, I absolutely cannot let him discover the truth of what happened that year.
00:15:39How?
00:15:40How could this happen?
00:15:41The spots are showing through again!
00:15:50Your Highness, please calm down.
00:15:52Please, Your Highness, calm down.
00:15:57You witch!
00:15:58You think you are still the high and mighty Miss Judd of the Judd family?
00:16:01Since you ran off with me, you better behave!
00:16:08My face!
00:16:10My face!
00:16:13My face!
00:16:16Number, I barely escaped at hell.
00:16:18I barely clawed back the glory and riches that should have been mine.
00:16:22I can't let His Majesty see this hideous face of mine.
00:16:26Where is the medicine?
00:16:28Quick!
00:16:28That secret elixir from the western region!
00:16:30Now!
00:16:35Your Highness, the medicine is here.
00:16:52Your Highness, you mustn't that merchant from the western region said.
00:16:56This secret potion make one's skin glow and looks radiant, but it contains toxins.
00:17:00You can only take it once a month.
00:17:01You've already taken a dose today.
00:17:03If you take more, it might backfire.
00:17:04You know nothing day in the Imperial Garden!
00:17:06His Majesty was already suspicious of me!
00:17:08If I can't use this face to keep him home, I'll lose everything!
00:17:11As long as I can hold Silas Chase in check,
00:17:13and trample that witch Sophia Judd beneath my heels,
00:17:16a little poison means nothing at all.
00:17:26I am the most beautiful!
00:17:27I am the only noble consort of Great Kale!
00:17:30Sophia Judd, what have you got to fight me with?
00:17:39I pay my respects to Your Majesty, the Empress, and all the ladies.
00:17:43His Majesty, has obtained a fine piece of silk brocade today,
00:17:46and specifically ordered me to deliver it for all the ladies to tailor winter garments.
00:18:05This moon white silk brocade has such a delicate color, it perfectly complements my complexion.
00:18:11Unically on, have it delivered for me to the Palace of Pure Bell.
00:18:14Well, Your Highness Noble Lady Ashley, this moon white silk brocade was specially commissioned by His Majesty
00:18:20as a gift for Her Highness Noble Consort.
00:18:23Sophia Judd, a convict such as yourself, does not deserve to wear such exquisite fabric.
00:18:30If Noble Lady Ashley likes it, take it then.
00:18:34It is just a bolt of fabric.
00:18:36Hall of Joyous Blessing is terribly quiet and desolate.
00:18:39It is all the same what I wear.
00:18:43Noble Lady Ashley, since it was a gift from His Majesty bestowed upon Noble Consort,
00:18:48how dare you snatch it away? Step back now.
00:18:50Your Majesty, you are being biased.
00:18:52It is clear that His Majesty favors me the most.
00:18:54You are becoming more and more out of line.
00:19:01Your Majesty, look at Her Highness.
00:19:04She deliberately used that fabric to humiliate me.
00:19:08Ashley's whole greedy, overbearing act is utterly despicable,
00:19:11while Sophia, on the other hand, is cool and elegant, never fighting for things.
00:19:16How did I ever think that Ashley was the one who understood me?
00:19:19It is just a piece of silk brocade as a dignified noble lady.
00:19:22How dare you raise your voice in the Empress's Palace?
00:19:24What kind of behavior is that?
00:19:25Your Majesty, you are scolding me for her sake.
00:19:29Unic Leon, take that moon-white silk brocade to the Hall of Joyous Blessing.
00:19:32As for Noble Lady Ashley, for misconduct before the Hall,
00:19:36she shall copy the admonitions for women ten times
00:19:38and be confined to the Palace of Pure Belle for three days.
00:19:53Search the place, search everywhere.
00:19:55Leave no stone unturned.
00:19:59Noble Lady Ashley, you are quite bold.
00:20:02Hall of Joyous Blessings is mine.
00:20:03You cannot rummage through it as you please.
00:20:05Your Highness Noble Consort,
00:20:07That pearl bracelet bestowed by His Majesty has gone missing someone.
00:20:11Saw your palace maid Judy sneaking off to the palace of Pure Belle yesterday, Unic Leon.
00:20:17This is an imperial gift.
00:20:18If it is lost, no one can bear the blame.
00:20:21Your Highness,
00:20:22I am just following orders.
00:20:25My apologies.
00:20:28Ah!
00:20:31Your Highness,
00:20:33I am innocent.
00:20:34I didn't steal anything.
00:20:36We will know.
00:20:37Whether she did or not,
00:20:38after searching the inner chamber,
00:20:40search it at once.
00:20:48Impossible.
00:20:49I clearly told Judy to hide the bracelet inside the vanity table.
00:20:52Could this wretch have taken the money and not done the job?
00:20:55Noble Lady Ashley,
00:20:56you searched so thoroughly.
00:20:57Was it this you were looking for?
00:21:05Unic Leon,
00:21:06you see it was her who stole it after all.
00:21:07Caught red-handed.
00:21:08What do you have to say for yourself?
00:21:09Ian,
00:21:10tell Noble Lady Ashley
00:21:12where this bracelet's found.
00:21:13Your Highness,
00:21:14this bracelet was found under Judy's pillow last night.
00:21:16By me,
00:21:16I also found an inexplicable edition
00:21:18of 50 Tales of Gold in Judy's bundle.
00:21:20Please have mercy.
00:21:21Your Highness,
00:21:22it was,
00:21:23it was Noble Lady Ashley
00:21:25who gave me 50 Tales of Gold
00:21:27to have me hide the bracelet in your vanity.
00:21:28To set you up.
00:21:29I was momentarily greedy.
00:21:31I beg for your leniency.
00:21:32You wretch!
00:21:34How dare you slander me?
00:21:35I'll tear your mouth!
00:21:37Slander.
00:21:38On the bottom of those 50 Tales of Gold
00:21:41is still clearly stamped the seal of the Palace of Pure Bell.
00:21:50You bribed a palace maid
00:21:52to frame a reigning noble consul.
00:21:55Ashley Judd,
00:21:56guess what crime?
00:21:59His Majesty would charge you with it.
00:22:01If he learned the truth.
00:22:06Your Majesty,
00:22:08you must stand up for me!
00:22:09Her Highness has not only stolen the pearl bracelet you bestowed upon me,
00:22:12but also extorted a false confession,
00:22:14forcing a maid to frame me up.
00:22:22Sofia,
00:22:23what do you have to say for yourself?
00:22:25I have nothing to say.
00:22:26The evidence and witnesses are all here.
00:22:28If Your Majesty doesn't believe,
00:22:29you can investigate the mark
00:22:30on the bottom of those 50 Tales of Gold.
00:22:34Ashley Judd,
00:22:35how dare you play such a clumsy trick
00:22:37right under my nose?
00:22:38Do you really think I am blind,
00:22:39you vicious woman?
00:22:40Your Majesty!
00:22:41What else do you have to say in your defense?
00:22:43I am your Ashley!
00:22:45Back then on the snow mountain,
00:22:46it was I who risked my life to save you!
00:22:48All you ever do is hold that mountain rescue over my head.
00:22:51What else can you do?
00:22:51Look at your hideous,
00:22:53frantic self.
00:22:53Who will stop at nothing?
00:22:55Not a trace of the innocent kind girl
00:22:56you once were remains.
00:22:58No,
00:22:59that is not true,
00:23:00Your Majesty!
00:23:00It is her!
00:23:01It is that when Sofia Judd
00:23:03seduced you,
00:23:03that is why you were wished by her!
00:23:05Guards drag this disloyal wretch Judy out!
00:23:08and beat her to death!
00:23:09No,
00:23:09Your Majesty!
00:23:10Spare me,
00:23:11please!
00:23:12As for noble Lady Ash,
00:23:13malicious in heart,
00:23:13and framing a noble consul,
00:23:14she is demoted to second attendant effective immediate
00:23:16and confined to the palace of pure Belle
00:23:18without my decree.
00:23:19No one is permitted to visit her.
00:23:22Your Majesty,
00:23:23you can't do this to me!
00:23:25I am your Ashley!
00:23:27You promised to protect me
00:23:28and keep me safe for life!
00:23:30Get out!
00:23:34Silas Chase,
00:23:36your so-called deep affection
00:23:37amounts to nothing.
00:23:48Leave me alone.
00:23:49No one is to disturb us.
00:23:50Understood.
00:23:59Your Majesty,
00:24:00I pay my respects.
00:24:02Sofia,
00:24:03you are still angry with me.
00:24:04Ashley has been demoted to second attendant
00:24:05and confined to the palace of pure Belle.
00:24:07If that is still not enough,
00:24:08I can punish her further.
00:24:09Your Majesty,
00:24:10you flatter me too much.
00:24:11Oath favor and rebuke our grace.
00:24:12How dare I be angry with Your Majesty?
00:24:14Sofia,
00:24:14I admit it,
00:24:15you are all I can think about.
00:24:16If only you would smile at me
00:24:17and if only you are willing to return to my side,
00:24:18I can immediately depose Ashley.
00:24:20Judd,
00:24:20even have her killed.
00:24:21What a cold-blooded lunatic yesterday.
00:24:23You doted on her,
00:24:24showering her with endless affection today.
00:24:26For the sake of a bit of novelty,
00:24:28you wouldn't hesitate to turn on your old flame
00:24:30and strike her down.
00:24:31Your Majesty,
00:24:32you are so cruel.
00:24:33She is your beloved white moonlight
00:24:34who risked her life saving you on the snowmound
00:24:36if you just kill her.
00:24:36Aren't you afraid of breaking the hearts of all people?
00:24:38I don't care about them all.
00:24:40I want right now as you.
00:24:41What you love is neither the debt of gratitude
00:24:43for saving your life
00:24:44nor this face of mine.
00:24:45What you love is always only yourself.
00:24:46When Ashley obeyed you,
00:24:48you thought she was perfection itself
00:24:49now that her beauty is marred.
00:24:50And she irritates you.
00:24:52You cast her aside like a wisp of smoke day.
00:24:54You can kill her for my sake one day.
00:24:55I displease you.
00:24:57My fate will only be worse than hers.
00:24:59So, Fiatra,
00:25:00don't you dare be ungrateful.
00:25:01I am the Son of Heaven.
00:25:04So what if you are the Son of Heaven?
00:25:06You may control the life and death
00:25:07of everyone under heaven.
00:25:08But you will never obtain my true heart.
00:25:12Fine, very well.
00:25:14Let's see how long that defiance of yours
00:25:32Your Highness,
00:25:33we've got some leads on that matter.
00:25:34You told me to look into outside the palace.
00:25:36Oh.
00:25:37Has he come to the capital?
00:25:39Yes.
00:25:39That country bumpkin named Noah Lee
00:25:41somehow managed to get his hands
00:25:43on a scholar's title.
00:25:44He has also followed the crowd
00:25:45to the capital for the imperial exams
00:25:47he is currently staying
00:25:48at a dilapidated temple
00:25:49in the South City.
00:25:49He has been drinking too much
00:25:51and bragging all over the place,
00:25:52saying he once slept with a young lady
00:25:54from a noble family.
00:25:55Excellent.
00:25:56Ashley Judd,
00:25:57the nightmare you dread more than any
00:25:59the one you long to erase forever
00:26:00has finally come knocking at your door.
00:26:03Ian Go spread this news
00:26:04as idle gossip
00:26:06casually to the palace
00:26:07made in charge of Night Soil
00:26:08in the palace of Pure Bell.
00:26:09Make absolutely sure
00:26:10noble lady Ashley
00:26:11hears it crystal clear.
00:26:13Understood.
00:26:20Any news from outside?
00:26:21It's his majesty
00:26:22about to lift my house arrest.
00:26:24Is he?
00:26:24Your highness,
00:26:25I just went to empty the night soil
00:26:27and overheard some eunuch gossiping outside.
00:26:30Oh, stop scammering and spit it out.
00:26:32Hurry up and tell me.
00:26:33They said for this year's
00:26:35special imperial exam,
00:26:36a country bumpkin named Noah Lee
00:26:38has come to the capital
00:26:39for the exams.
00:26:39he's been bragging all over the place
00:26:41that he once once slept with a young lady
00:26:43from a noble family.
00:26:44You belong to the Ly family in life
00:26:47and you will be a spirit of the Ly family in death.
00:26:49Even if you run back to the capital,
00:26:51I can still track you down.
00:26:54Noelle,
00:26:54how could he come to the capital
00:26:56if he spells the beans about
00:26:57what happened back then
00:26:58and if his majesty finds out
00:27:00that I was no longer pure and untouched
00:27:01and that I even had an abortion
00:27:03for that country bumpkin?
00:27:05Tracy,
00:27:06listen to me.
00:27:06Find a way to get a message to my father.
00:27:08Have him send someone
00:27:09to the dilapidated temple in South City
00:27:10and kill Noah Lee.
00:27:11We absolutely cannot let him
00:27:12enter the examination hall alive.
00:27:14Your highness,
00:27:15we're under house arrest right now.
00:27:16We can't even step out
00:27:17of the palace of Purebell's gate.
00:27:23Noah Lee's in the capital.
00:27:25That wretch Sophia Chut must know by now.
00:27:27She'll definitely seize the chance
00:27:29to expose me before his majesty.
00:27:32No way,
00:27:32I can't just sit here waiting for doom.
00:27:34I've got to strike first.
00:27:40I am your servant, Kevin.
00:27:42I pay my respects to your highness,
00:27:44second attendant Ashley.
00:27:45So you are Kevin
00:27:46from the Imperial Kitchen
00:27:47in charge of the drinks
00:27:48for the Mid-Autumn Imperial Banquet.
00:27:50That is right.
00:27:51May I ask why you've summoned me
00:27:53so late at night?
00:27:59Here is 300 Tales of Gold.
00:28:02I want you to do something for me
00:28:03at the Mid-Autumn Imperial Banquet.
00:28:05Just give your orders.
00:28:06I would not hesitate to do anything.
00:28:09This is a rare poison
00:28:10from the western region.
00:28:12Wizard Bell Venom.
00:28:12Colorless and odorless.
00:28:14The nearest touch ruins one's beauty.
00:28:16And they die horribly
00:28:17with their insides torn up.
00:28:21Your highness,
00:28:22who are you trying to poison?
00:28:25The noble consort,
00:28:27Sophia Judd.
00:28:29Your highness,
00:28:30spare me.
00:28:30Poisoning her highness
00:28:31is a crime that dooms
00:28:32nine generations.
00:28:32I wouldn't dare.
00:28:35Do you think you still
00:28:36have a way out?
00:28:37You took my gold.
00:28:38You are already my accomplice
00:28:40if you don't do it.
00:28:41I'll scream for help right now
00:28:42and say you tried to assault me.
00:28:45I will do it.
00:28:47I will get it done for sure.
00:28:49On the day of the Imperial Banquet,
00:28:51I'll personally propose a toast to her.
00:28:52All you need to do
00:28:53is slip this poison
00:28:54into her wine cup.
00:28:55Once it is done,
00:28:56I'll get you out of the palace
00:28:58and you'll live in luxury.
00:29:00Understood.
00:29:01I'll do as you say.
00:29:04Your highness,
00:29:05there is movement
00:29:05over at the Palace of Pure Bell.
00:29:07Last night,
00:29:08Kevin from the Imperial Kitchen
00:29:09sneaked into the Palace of Pure Bell
00:29:10when he came out.
00:29:11He had a heavy-looking money pouch
00:29:12tucked in his robe.
00:29:13Did you find out
00:29:14what he went there for?
00:29:15I bragged Kevin's apprentice
00:29:16into spilling everything.
00:29:17Noble Lady Ashley
00:29:18gave him a bottle
00:29:19of exotic poison
00:29:20from the western region.
00:29:21She wanted him to slip it
00:29:22into your highness's cup
00:29:23at the mid-autumn banquet.
00:29:24Ashley Judd,
00:29:25you are really backed
00:29:26into a corner now.
00:29:27Aren't you trying to poison me
00:29:28fine then?
00:29:29I'll give you a grand gift
00:29:30in front of the entire world.
00:29:31Ian,
00:29:32let's go to her majesty's palace.
00:29:34I have a good show
00:29:35I'd like to invite
00:29:35her majesty to watch.
00:29:41withered Bell Venom
00:29:42from the western region.
00:29:43Ashley Judd dares to openly poison
00:29:45a noble consort
00:29:45at the Imperial Banquet.
00:29:46She has truly lost her mind.
00:29:48She is not crazy.
00:29:49She is terrified.
00:29:50The news of Noah Lee
00:29:51entering the capital
00:29:52has become a blade
00:29:53hanging over her head.
00:29:54She wants to eliminate me.
00:29:55Her thorn in the side
00:29:56before her secret is exposed.
00:29:58I will not allow
00:29:59such a venomous woman
00:30:00to stir up trouble
00:30:01in the harem.
00:30:02I shall go now
00:30:03to inform his majesty
00:30:04and have her thrown
00:30:05into the death cell.
00:30:06Your highness,
00:30:07please hold on.
00:30:08We need hard proof
00:30:09to catch a thief
00:30:10if we accuse her now.
00:30:11She could easily
00:30:12turn the tables
00:30:13and claim I am framing her.
00:30:14His majesty
00:30:14still holds some affection for her.
00:30:16He might not strike
00:30:17to kill her.
00:30:17Then,
00:30:18what do you
00:30:19suggest we do?
00:30:20Turn her scheme against her
00:30:22since she plans
00:30:23to strike at the banquet.
00:30:24Then I shall give her
00:30:25that very chance.
00:30:26I've already had Ian
00:30:27secretly take control
00:30:28of that eunuch Kevin.
00:30:29On the day of the banquet,
00:30:30the poisoned wine
00:30:31will be served.
00:30:32But I won't drink it.
00:30:33I want her to taste
00:30:34her own bitter medicine
00:30:35in front of everyone.
00:30:36A brilliant move
00:30:37to lure the snake out.
00:30:38But poisoning alone
00:30:39isn't enough
00:30:39to seal her eternal damnation.
00:30:41Don't worry,
00:30:42your highness.
00:30:42I've prepared
00:30:43a special gift for her.
00:30:44I've already sent someone
00:30:45to bring Noah Leap
00:30:46to wait outside the palace.
00:30:48I see now.
00:30:50Poisoning a noble consort,
00:30:51defiling the heron,
00:30:52and deceiving his majesty.
00:30:53Ashley has no way out this time.
00:30:55I wish to be the blade
00:30:56in your highness's hand
00:30:57to root out this
00:30:58festering blight entirely for you.
00:30:59I only ask that
00:31:00once it is done
00:31:00your highness
00:31:01can guarantee me
00:31:01a place of peace
00:31:02within these deep palace walls.
00:31:04You have my word.
00:31:05As long as I am here,
00:31:06in this harem,
00:31:07there will always
00:31:08be a place for you.
00:31:11Kevin,
00:31:12do you understand
00:31:14what her highness has said?
00:31:16I understand.
00:31:18I will follow
00:31:19her highness's orders
00:31:20exactly to serve
00:31:21that cup of poisoned wine.
00:31:23Remember,
00:31:23your life is now held
00:31:25in her highness's hands.
00:31:26If you dare play tricks,
00:31:28this time next year
00:31:29will be your death anniversary.
00:31:32I wouldn't dare.
00:31:33I would die
00:31:34a thousand deaths
00:31:34without regret.
00:31:46Sophia,
00:31:47judge,
00:31:47you could be
00:31:47my spitting image today.
00:31:49I am going to make you
00:31:50suffer a gut-wrenching agony
00:31:51and die without a whole body
00:31:53right here in this grand hall.
00:31:54Your majesty,
00:31:54on this mid-autumn festival,
00:31:56I wish your majesty
00:31:57boundless fortune
00:31:58and longevity
00:31:59and peace
00:31:59throughout the land.
00:32:00Please let me toast to you.
00:32:03Hmm.
00:32:05Her outfit is tacky
00:32:06and over the top.
00:32:19Your highness,
00:32:20why are you dressed so plainly?
00:32:23Could it be you are still
00:32:24holding a grudge of...
00:32:26against me?
00:32:28You are overthinking it.
00:32:30I simply feel it is fitting
00:32:31to be more elegant
00:32:32on mid-autumn festival,
00:32:34lest I overshadow
00:32:35the host and breach etiquette.
00:32:36You are right to correct me.
00:32:37I just wanted his majesty
00:32:39to be in better spirits.
00:32:43Your highness,
00:32:44taking advantage
00:32:45of the mid-autumn festival,
00:32:46please let me toast you a cup.
00:32:48As my apology,
00:32:49I hope you can be magnanimous
00:32:50and forgive.
00:32:50To forgive me,
00:32:51the real show
00:32:52is finally about to begin.
00:32:56Your highness,
00:32:58please.
00:33:01Drink.
00:33:02Drink it.
00:33:03Now,
00:33:04once you drink this,
00:33:06no one in this world
00:33:07will ever be able
00:33:08to compete with me again.
00:33:14No!
00:33:15No!
00:33:22Poison!
00:33:23The wine is poisoned!
00:33:27Protect his majesty!
00:33:30No!
00:33:34Second attendant to Ashley.
00:33:36You dare try to poison me
00:33:38at the Imperial Banquet!
00:33:40How could this happen?
00:33:41How did she knock it over?
00:33:43You are lying!
00:33:44I didn't!
00:33:45You knocked it over yourself!
00:33:47You are framing me!
00:33:48Enough!
00:33:49Ashley Judd!
00:33:50What possible explanation
00:33:51do you have?
00:33:52Your majesty!
00:33:53I've been wrong!
00:33:54I truly did not poison
00:33:56and the wine was her!
00:33:57It was that wretch
00:33:58Sophia Judd
00:33:59poisoned herself
00:33:59to frame me!
00:34:01Second attendant,
00:34:01Ashley,
00:34:02you personally offered
00:34:02the toady eunuch
00:34:03who poured the wine
00:34:04was also arranged by you.
00:34:05Do you think his majesty
00:34:06and all the court officials
00:34:06are blind?
00:34:09Her majesty!
00:34:12must have been fooled
00:34:13by this fuck spirit!
00:34:15She's just jealous of me!
00:34:17I've put on
00:34:18a sympathy ploy!
00:34:20How would I dare
00:34:21to poison someone openly
00:34:23at the Imperial Banquet?
00:34:25Outrageous!
00:34:26Second attendant,
00:34:26Ashley,
00:34:27at this point,
00:34:27you still dare deny it.
00:34:29That poisoned wine
00:34:29was handed to the noble consort
00:34:31by your own hand.
00:34:32Your majesty!
00:34:33I am truly innocent!
00:34:34The wine was prepared
00:34:35by the Imperial Kitchen!
00:34:37I had no idea
00:34:38I was laced with poison!
00:34:39Since you said
00:34:41the wine was prepared
00:34:42by the Imperial Kitchen,
00:34:43then summon the eunuch
00:34:44who poured it
00:34:44will know after questioning him.
00:34:46Kevin,
00:34:46get your server here!
00:34:57Talk!
00:34:58Who really poisoned the wine?
00:35:00If there is one false word,
00:35:01I'll have your whole clan executed!
00:35:03It was her!
00:35:04Second attendant,
00:35:05Ashley!
00:35:06It was the servant!
00:35:07How dare you frame me!
00:35:08To tear your mouth apart!
00:35:10Your majesty,
00:35:11please see the truth!
00:35:12This is 300 tales of gold
00:35:13and the porcelain vial
00:35:14for the poison
00:35:15Her Highness gave me last night.
00:35:16She forced me to poison
00:35:17the Her Highness noble consort's wine,
00:35:19promising that once it was done,
00:35:20she'd get me out of the palace.
00:35:21Every word I've said
00:35:22is true.
00:35:22I beg for your majesty's mercy.
00:35:28You viper!
00:35:29With the witness
00:35:30and evidence!
00:35:31Right here!
00:35:31What more do you have
00:35:32to say for yourself?
00:35:34No!
00:35:35That is not true!
00:35:37Your majesty!
00:35:38Please,
00:35:39let me explain.
00:35:41Explain.
00:35:42Second attendant,
00:35:43Ashley's withered bell venom
00:35:44from the western region
00:35:46is so potent
00:35:47it can dissolve
00:35:47even bones to water.
00:35:49You wanted me to die
00:35:50without a trace.
00:35:54I've always treated you well.
00:35:56How dare you poison
00:35:57the noble consort
00:35:58right in front of the entire court
00:35:59at the imperial banquet?
00:36:00Do you have any respect
00:36:01for the law or for me?
00:36:02She forced my hand!
00:36:03She stole my position
00:36:04and stole your majesty's favor!
00:36:06I am the legitimate daughter
00:36:07of the Judd family!
00:36:08I am the noble consort
00:36:09of Great Tales!
00:36:09She is just a lowly,
00:36:10illegitimate daughter!
00:36:11You are utterly
00:36:12beyond redemption.
00:36:14Even now,
00:36:14you dare to slander Sophia!
00:36:17Have you forgotten
00:36:18what happened
00:36:19on the snow mountain?
00:36:20I risked my life
00:36:20to save you!
00:36:21You promised to love me forever!
00:36:23You can't kill me
00:36:24for this wretch!
00:36:25All you do
00:36:25is hold that debt over me!
00:36:27What else can you do?
00:36:28My gratitude
00:36:29has long been worn
00:36:30thin by your venomous heart!
00:36:31You vicious woman!
00:36:40I'm okay there!
00:36:43I'm sorry!
00:36:43I'm sorry!

00:36:53The backlash of the
00:36:54withered bell venom
00:36:55amplified by strong wine.

00:40:00How could this be?
00:40:01An abortion?
00:40:03How dare you!

00:40:10Who knew she'd sneak

00:40:36And why aboard the child
00:40:37you clearly saw
00:40:38Noah Leak
00:40:38couldn't pass the exam?
00:40:40So you ran back
00:40:40to the capital
00:40:41hoping to use
00:40:41that pretty face
00:40:42to keep swindling
00:40:43his majesty's wealth

00:45:08She is blaming me
00:45:10for being blind
00:45:11before
00:45:12and for nearly
00:45:13getting her killed
00:45:14at the imperial banquet.
00:45:16I am the one
00:45:17who wronged her.
00:45:18Fine.
00:45:19I won't disturb her.
00:45:21Eunuch Leon
00:45:22convey my decree
00:45:23deliver that
00:45:24thousand year old
00:45:25ginseng from the treasury
00:45:26and a calming incense
00:45:27tribute from the
00:45:27western reach
00:45:28of the hall
00:45:28of joyous blessing.
00:45:30Understood.
00:45:31Sophia
00:45:32rest well.
00:45:33I'll come see you
00:45:33again tomorrow.
00:45:50Your highness
00:45:50his majesty
00:45:51has already
00:45:51left hall
00:45:52of joyous
00:45:53blessing's gate
00:45:53and is headed
00:45:54for the hall
00:45:54of mental cultivation.
00:45:55Who is he putting
00:45:56on this whole
00:45:56lovesick act
00:45:57for anyway?
00:45:58It is nauseating.
00:45:59Just now
00:46:00outside the door
00:46:01his majesty
00:46:01looked utterly
00:46:02lost and wretched.
00:46:03Even I saw
00:46:03it couldn't help
00:46:04but find it ridiculous.
00:46:05All he has lost
00:46:06is a mere
00:46:06placing for his
00:46:07amusement
00:46:07and a bit of
00:46:08his pitiful
00:46:08imperial dignity
00:46:09him running to me
00:46:10now is just
00:46:10to prove
00:46:11that someone
00:46:11out there
00:46:12so truly
00:46:12loves him
00:46:12too bad.
00:46:13He is getting
00:46:13nothing.
00:46:19Look out!
00:46:20I am the
00:46:20noble consort!
00:46:21I am the

01:09:10just heard some traveling merchants say
01:09:12the new emperor's coronation ceremony
01:09:14in the capital was a real spectacle
01:09:16the empress dowager is ruling from behind the screen
01:09:18managing the court with perfect order
01:09:20as for the late emperor
01:09:21and that deposed consort business
01:09:22no one even mentions it anymore
01:09:26the past
01:09:27feels like a distant dream
01:09:29the winds of the capital
01:09:30can't reach these layering waterways
01:09:32Ian

01:09:41could only be swayed
01:09:43by her family's interests
01:09:45and a man's favor
01:09:46they wanted me as a stand-in
01:09:48wanted me as a pawn
01:09:50and wanted me to wither away in this deep palace
01:09:53but I was determined to carve a path to survival
01:09:56right in this dead end game
01:09:57in this world
01:09:58there has never been any savior
01:09:59the only one who can save me
01:10:02is myself
