01:27[The Legend of Dugu]
01:30[Episode 7]
01:33I have figured out things while I was in Tongzhou.
01:37What I want to find is a virtuous woman like my mother,
01:44not a bold girl like you.
01:50In addition, you clearly know the situation of my royal family.
01:55I don't want you to experience the contempt of my Emperor Brother after marrying me, all right?
02:00Jialuo, actually, I only dare speak the real truth to you.
02:06In order to reach the capital safely, I made up a heartbroken lover act in front of the Grand Preceptor.
02:11It took great pains before he believed that I bravely returned
02:15because you're getting married.
02:18Yes, that's right.
02:19I'm betting on his relationship with Elder Sister Banruo.
02:23So later when you go out,
02:25you must hold your head high and pretend to have fallen in love with another man.
02:28The sadder I am, the more Grand Preceptor will believe me, and I can then stay in the capital.
02:34Deal?
02:36Jialuo, help me. Please.
02:39I don't want to go back to a ghastly place like Tongzhou anymore.
02:44Don't worry. I'll act well.
02:48Your health is bad. I don't want you to return to Tongzhou either.
02:51Good Brother!
02:56Since you've explained it very clearly, I've no choice but to accept it.
03:02So bad!
03:08Don't talk rubbish anymore.
03:10I thought you really wanted to marry me.
03:12I've even flattered myself for quite some time.
03:16I will obey.
03:21But... should I marry Li Cheng?
03:28The Li family is as rich as a king.
03:29If you marry him you will become a woman of great possessions.
03:32Isn't that good?
03:35What's more, don't your father and sister approve of this marriage?
03:39They surely wouldn't harm you.
03:46Well, since you also say so,
03:49I'll marry him then.
03:55Let me wish you in advance that may you have children soon
04:00and be together forever.
04:10Miss!
04:12- Jialuo!- Young Miss!
04:13I purposely came to visit you, yet you keep talking nonsense!
04:16Yuwen Yong, listen up! I'm betrothed!
04:19Keep a distance from me from now on!
04:25Jialuo! Jialuo!
04:39What a man of sentiment.
04:41In order to comfort her, you made up such a big lie.
04:46Are you really willing to watch her marry another man?
04:51Actually, I can help you.
04:53A Longxi Commandery Duke is nothing in my eyes.
04:55But you're letting go without a fight.
04:58Are you a man?
05:00Thank you. No need.
05:04Although I wish so hard that I could, but I can't.
05:08Why not?
05:10I can live no more than 10 years.
05:13Since I know that I'm dying,
05:15why should I still be a drag on her?
05:18I'm no longer qualified for our future happiness.
05:21Therefore, she doesn't have to know my feelings for her.
05:26Are you content?
05:27So what if I'm not?
05:30Even if I fell into hell,
05:34I would still happily send her off to an earthly paradise.
05:46Good!
05:47Because of these words, I'll help you stay in the capital.
05:53Many thanks.
05:59Jialuo.
06:04What's wrong with you?
06:06He's healthy.
06:09Nothing bad has happened.
06:12Isn't that good? Why do you look so sad?
06:17But I don't know why he changed his words all of a sudden!
06:23He said that all this while, he only sees me as his little sister.
06:30He doesn't have any special feelings for me.
06:32He also told me...
06:34He said that those words of asking me to wait for him to marry me
06:38were all words of jest.
06:43Don't-Don't... Don't cry.
06:46But I don't dare cry.
06:48I'm afraid that people in the manor will notice.
06:52If you cry now, people in your manor will also notice it.
06:55I'll say that you bullied me then.
06:58They will trust me.
07:01All right, all right! It's all my fault.
07:03Well, don't worry. Leave it to me.
07:06How about this? I'll go clarify things with Yuwen Yong.
07:10Don't go. I was totally disgraced today.
07:13All right, all right! I won't go.
07:16Since he doesn't intend to marry me, I'll follow his will then.
07:20Anyway, someone does want to marry me.
07:23But the Longxi Commandery is so far.
07:26I really don't want to be married off to that place.
07:30I don't want to leave Father and Sister.
07:35Yang Jian, in the future, can you and Second Sister frequently come to visit me?
07:40Not a problem.
07:42Really?
07:44Pinky promise. (T/N: 17th century term for "100 year promise" in Chinese ancient lore)
07:47I don't want to! I'm not a kid!
07:51Childish.
08:00Old Master is really something.
08:02How could he accept betrothal gifts from two families in one day?
08:04Anyway, the eldest sister should get married before the younger sister.
08:10Give me the hairpin granted by the Empress.
08:14Nanny,
08:15you don't understand.
08:16Two sisters accepting betrothal gifts together
08:20is a first in the whole of Great Zhou.
08:22Young Miss is really beautiful. She's a born beauty.
08:25Later, when Heir Apparent Yang delivers his betrothal gifts, he surely will be stupefied.
08:29I heard that when he came to the capital, he brought a lot of gold and silver.
08:33Otherwise, how could he have afforded porcelain worth 3,000 silver taels from Third Young Miss?
08:37Young Miss, just wait and see. Surely, the wealth of the future master will give you great dignity.
08:47What are you talking about?
08:49Am I that materialistic?
08:56I'll wear this one.
09:07Everyone says a betrothal is a happy event.
09:12But why can't I feel happiness?
09:29Thank you, Uncle, for allowing my marriage to your daughter.
09:31I've brought some gifts to honor our betrothal. Please accept them.
09:34Yes. Very good!
09:36Jian'er, quickly follow me to the main hall. This way, please.
09:41Betrothal Gift List from the Yang family!
09:43A pair of geese.
09:45Two pairs of porcelain vases.
09:47Ten units of beam waists.
09:49Two tiger skins.
09:51Sixty bolts of brocade.
09:54Two hundred skeins of silk.
09:56500,000 taels...
10:00Young Miss is really lucky.
10:01These betrothal gifts are comparable to ones for a royal marriage.
10:11Second Sister, Yang Jian is really nice to you.
10:14Don't say that.
10:16Later, the gift list from the Li family will surely be as good as this.
10:19Betrothal Gift List from the Li family!
10:22A pair of geese.
10:24A pair of vases.
10:27Ten units of beam waists.
10:29Five hundred bolts of brocade.
10:32Five hundred skeins of silk.
10:35One thousand acres of farmland.
10:39Two million taels.
10:43Uncle Li is quite rich.
10:49A pair of eaglewood jades.
10:58Miss, Uncle Li's family is really rich.
11:05How disgraceful.
11:06That Yang family is too stingy.
11:08Nanny, lessen your comments.
11:11The Yang family's betrothal gifts were generous enough.
11:12It's the Li family who didn't follow the rules and gave more.
11:15Be quiet!
11:17Mantuo! Mantuo!
11:21Brother Li.
11:26I toast you.
11:28Fine.
11:36Brother Li, your gifts are too precious.
11:43Don't say that. In-Law, you must accept these gifts.
11:47What our family has is only this gold and silver.
11:52In addition, if we don't show some sincerity,
11:55likely Jialuo would refuse a marriage with us.
12:00Actually, I purposely made it this grand
12:04due to personal interest.
12:07As long as Yuwen Yu feels that our Li family likes to keep a high profile,
12:13I think I can stay in this position as a Pillar of the State longer.
12:20Brother, you don't mind, do you?
12:28I'm fine with it.
12:31But the betrothal gifts are too precious.
12:36Won't that embarrass Brother Yang Zhong a little?
12:39How could that be?
12:41After all, Mantuo was born of a concubine.
12:44The betrothal gifts for a direct-line daughter should be more.
12:47It's only reasonable.
12:49Well...
12:53Old Master.
12:54Mantuo,
12:55don't cry.
12:56Mantuo.
12:59Mantuo.
13:00What's wrong, Mantuo?
13:04Go away.
13:08All right... Come here, come here.
13:11My good girl.
13:12All right, all right! Don't cry.
13:14Don't be sad. Don't overthink too much.
13:18Actually, the betrothal gifts of the Yang family today
13:20are considered some of the best in the capital.
13:23It is the Li family who went far over the line.
13:26That's right. Look at me. I was married into the Royal House of Duke Ningdu.
13:29The betrothal gifts I got were very much less than yours.
13:32That's the rule of the palace. Of course, it's different.
13:35But just because I was born of a concubine,
13:39should I lower my head to Jialuo?
13:41Mantuo, how could you say that?
13:45Since childhood,
13:47have I treated you three differently?
13:50Don't let Jian'er hear this.
13:52What would he think if he heard this?
13:54Could it be after giving out
13:57such precious betrothal gifts, he's in the wrong?
14:00There are a lot of differences between us.
14:02The servants in the manor are arranged according to the four seasons.
14:05Obviously, I'm older than Jialuo.
14:07How come her servant is named as Xiage?
14:09You're still not over that trifling matter?
14:12Xiage's surname is Xia.
14:15Enough of this.
14:16Today is your day of great happiness.
14:17You'll ruin your blessings if you keep crying.
14:20That's right, Mantuo.
14:22You're my beloved daughter.
14:25We should always keep a calm mind
14:27to show the magnanimity of our Dugu family.
14:31Understand?
14:34That's more like it.
14:37Father, I've another request.
14:41Tell me.
14:43I've became a joke in the capital because of these betrothal gifts.
14:48If you care about me,
14:50please give me more dowry than the others.
14:55This way, I'll be able to redeem myself.
14:59- Father... - How is that possible?
15:00I have to be fair in preparing all your dowries.
15:04Father...
15:07Father, no need for you to feel troubled by this.
15:09Doesn't Second Sister just want to feel dignified?
15:11How about I give half of my dowry to her?
15:20I didn't mean to impose.
15:23Thank you, Eldest Sister!
15:25But if you think that by doing this
15:27your dowry will become more than Jialuo's,
15:29that's impossible.
15:31You may not know it.
15:33But according to the rules, our dowries should be distributed by Father evenly.
15:38The rest of your dowry will come
15:41from the dowry of my deceased mother.
15:44My birth mother died early and I have a lot of siblings.
15:47I'm fine with not getting a share of her dowry.
15:49But Jialuo is different.
15:51I remember that when Second Mother Cui married into our family,
15:54she brought along a dowry worth millions with her.
15:56So now that Jialuo is getting married, of course, that dowry will go with her.
16:01Otherwise, her mother would be very much unwilling.
16:06Mantuo,
16:08I remember Chief Steward saying
16:10that when your mother, Concubine Zhu, married into our house,
16:12she only brought along two dresses and some pieces of jewelry with her. Am I right?
16:23Banruo, why must you tell your little sister these things?
16:27Father, I just want her to face reality.
16:32Look at her.
16:33Just because of the betrothal gifts, she's making a scene here.
16:36Tell me. How is she going to serve her parents-in-law like this?
16:40In addition, it's an unchangeable fact that Mantuo was born of a concubine.
16:46If she still doesn't know her position today,
16:49she'll suffer more losses in the future.
17:03Mantuo, don't mind what your sister said.
17:08Quickly get ready and clean yourself up.
17:10Later, Jian'er will help you to dress.
17:13After all, you two will be living together forever.
17:16Later, you must speak nicely to him.
17:19Don't create grudges because of small matters.
17:23I'm leaving now.
17:30Even Father refuses to help me...
17:35My life is so unfortunate.
18:01So beautiful. This is...
18:04For you.
18:07Thank you.
18:08You're welcome.
18:12Father said that we can be betrothed first and be married after two years.
18:18During this period I'll stay in the capital.
18:20If you want, you can come back with me to Longxi to have fun, too.
18:24All right.
18:28Regarding the Compassionate Relief Academy and the porcelain shop,
18:30when I'm free, I'll lend you a hand.
18:34That's great! I heard that you're an expert in business.
18:38From now on, I'll have to trouble you.
18:40Not really. Not really.
18:50May we talk as usual? (T/N: Less formally)
18:53I also find this weird.
18:55We're betrothed after just one meeting. It's indeed a bit strange.
18:58But I liked you on first sight--
19:04We'll slowly get closer. I'll treat you well.
19:09Jialuo, you still don't want to marry me, do you?
19:14That day when you went to see my father,
19:16I was just outside the door.
19:20No! No! It's not that I refuse to marry you.
19:22It's just too short a notice.
19:25Think about it. I've been living freely for so long.
19:29Suddenly, Father told me I'm betrothed.
19:32If a donkey was put into a cage all of a sudden,
19:36surely, it couldn't get used to it.
19:38If you were a donkey, you must be the prettiest donkey in this world.
19:44No, I--
19:49It's late. I'm going home now.
19:52I'll come again in two days time.
19:55All right.
20:06So tired.
20:09No wonder Sister told me that everything changes after you're married.
20:18Why are you looking at me?
20:20You do seem like the prettiest donkey.
20:24You...
20:30This way, Young Lord.
20:53Mantuo, I'm so sorry for today.
21:01After marrying, we'll be husband and wife.
21:05Don't say that.
21:09If I knew the Li family would do such a grand scene, I would have prepared more betrothal gifts.
21:13But don't worry. After getting married, I'll foster achievement,
21:17so that you can become a glorious Duchess of the State.
21:21Really?
21:22What is said cannot be unsaid.
21:29Uncle told me that after Eldest Sister and the Duke of Ningdu are wed,
21:35we can get married.
21:41Brother Jian, if you wish to help me redeem myself, there is a way.
21:46What is it?
21:48As long as I can do it, just tell me.
21:51Look, today is only the betrothal ceremony.
21:55On the actual day of our wedding,
21:57as long as my dowry is abundant enough, no one will say anything.
22:01Unfortunately, Father and eldest sister are showing favoritism.
22:03They don't want to give me any extra dowry.
22:06Older Brother Jian, I know that in coming to the capital,
22:10you brought along a lot of gold and silver.
22:12Perhaps, you can place them under my dowry on that day,
22:18so that I will be glorious.
22:21- Well... - This time I can't lose face anymore.
22:24According to Banruo, the deceased mother of Jialuo has left her millions of taels as dowry.
22:30If you give me some extra taels,
22:33others won't gossip about me anymore.
22:35Mantuo, we're living our own life.
22:37Why should we care about any gossip?
22:39I just want to vent this grievance.
22:43I wish to help you, too.
22:45But in coming to the capital this time,
22:47other than the dowry, Father only gave me 5,000 more taels.
22:51I don't believe you!
22:53You clearly spent 3,000 taels of gold to buy Jialuo's porcelain vase.
22:58I purposely bought that.
22:59I explained it to you last time.
23:01I pretended to be a dandy to confuse Yuwen Hu.
23:05Then, can't you borrow some taels?
23:08I just need it for one day. Just one day.
23:11Mantuo, do you need to do this?
23:13I must do so!
23:16Banruo is a Princess Consort.
23:17I have no way to compete with her.
23:19But this time, I mustn't be inferior to Jialuo either!
23:23You're all birth sisters. Must there be a winner?
23:27A woman will only get married once in her lifetime!
23:29Of course, I'd like to win!
23:32Before my mother died, she held my hands and told me
23:35to strive for vindication.
23:37But look at this current situation.
23:39If she knew, she must be sadly crying right now.
23:45Actually, you are still bothered by the betrothal gifts, am I right?
23:52If you refuse to help me in such a small matter,
23:55how then are you going to make me live gloriously in the future?
23:58Mantuo, we're living in troubled times.
24:01Glorious means
24:02that no matter how the court changes,
24:04I will still stably inherit my father's assets and become the governor of a territory.
24:08That will let you become the wife of a Pillar of State without worries for the rest of your life.
24:11Letting all the common people live and work in peace.
24:14Through this, someone will surely tell of my merits to the next generations.
24:18But I--
24:19Mantuo, this is my lifetime dream.
24:22I hope you can realize it with me, will you?
24:25Yes.
24:28Older Brother Jian, I was too impatient.
24:31I spoke some words that upset you.
24:35Please don't keep it in mind.
24:37How could I?
24:38I should appreciate your understanding.
24:41How about this? On our wedding day, I'll invite some princes to be our main guests.
24:45I will make sure all the ladies throughout the capital envy you.
24:50That would be wonderful.
24:53Come, I'll put this hairpin on for you.
25:00How are you? Do you feel better?
25:09I'm experienced in this case. It's better to get drunk today.
25:14Then time will pass.
25:19Want some?
25:22I'm not drinking.
25:23If I get drunk today,
25:25I'll have to be drunk again during her marriage.
25:28I have to take care of my body.
25:30Living another day is a gain for me.
25:35All right. Since you won't drink,
25:38I'll drink.
25:41Won't raise the whip while riding the horse; instead, you're breaking off a twig gifting it before leaving.
25:46Getting off the horse to play one's flute,
25:49killing off all the romantics with its sad tune.
26:07The blooms are really nice.
26:12I heard that the Second Miss of the Dugu family is very competitive.
26:17So what?
26:19How can the daughter of a concubine be comparable to the daughter of a legal wife?
26:22That's right.
26:26Are you Madam Zheng?
26:27It's been a while
26:31since our meeting at the hunting grounds.
26:40These people are really bad.
26:41They're all snobs.
26:43It wasn't easy to be able to go out and breathe some fresh air.
26:45Can you just be silent?
26:51Your Highness.
26:52Miss Mantuo, you're excused.
26:55I heard that you just got betrothed.
26:58I was ill so I couldn't pay my regards.
27:00I feel sorry about that.
27:02In two days, Eldest Sister will be marrying into the House of Duke of Ningdu.
27:05No need to be so polite. Just call me "Mantuo."
27:09I, too, heard that you were ill these past two days.
27:11You look like you've recovered.
27:14I'm quite well. A few days ago,
27:16I'd already done some tasks for the Imperial Court.
27:18Oh yes! How has Jialuo been lately?
27:24She's doing very well.
27:26She might be with Heir Apparent Li at the Compassionate Relief Academy at this moment.
27:30Really?
27:33If Your Highness would like to talk to her,
27:35you can come to our house to visit her.
27:37No need.
27:38I think she doesn't want to see me.
27:43I'll take my leave now.
27:54Wait! Wasn't he very close with Jialuo before?
28:01Why didn't Jialuo say a word and just agree to marry into the Li family?
28:05Young Miss, I know a little bit about this matter.
28:08I have a cousin who works in the manor of the Grand Preceptor.
28:12That day, she saw Third Miss secretly go into the Grand Preceptor's manor.
28:15After talking to the Duke of Fucheng, she left in a rage.
28:25Impossible.
28:28Could it be Jialuo found another love
28:30and so the two of them ended up like this?
28:35Since the Duke of Fucheng returned to the capital, he just stayed in the Grand Preceptor's manor?
28:39Yes. He only moved back to his own manor yesterday.
28:42My cousin also found it strange.
28:44Technically, the Grand Preceptor and the Duke of Fucheng are cousins,
28:48but I have never heard them being close before.
28:51However, this time, the Grand Preceptor not only disobeyed the Emperor's decree
28:53and allowed Duke of Fucheng to rest in his manor,
28:55he even assigned him some Winter Official tasks.
29:01This must have really dealt a huge blow to the Emperor's dignity.
29:07That means... the Grand Preceptor
29:11is trying to support him?
29:18Young Miss, you're back.
29:20How was the feast?
29:23I'm thinking of something. You may leave now.
29:30What's wrong?
29:35Say it.
29:42Say it again.
29:44That Chunshi is the Eldest Miss' trusted aide.
29:47How could her words be false?
29:52What? She rejected Yang Jian and that's why he ended up with me?
29:57That Dugu Banruo has gone too far!
29:59That's right. I was already puzzled
30:02why your betrothal ceremony must be on the same day as the Third Miss.
30:06I understand it now.
30:08All along, Eldest Miss was using her might as a Princess Consort
30:11and her position as the household manager to suppress you.
30:15Young Miss, you have to talk to Old Master about this and ask him to give you justice.
30:21Do you think Father will support me?
30:25I'm afraid that he only cares about Banruo and Jialuo.
30:28That day, I begged him, yet he told me that he must be fair to all his three daughters.
30:34Young Miss, you must not listen to those gossips? What can be gained?
30:37Young Miss, you're not betrothed to Heir Apparent Yang.
30:40You should just pay attention to preparing your dowry.
30:42After Eldest Miss is married, it will be your turn.
30:46Why should I always be a rank behind?
30:49I only get my turn after they are done?
30:52That's right. These remaining so-called heirs of the Pillars of State are all poor!
30:57Nanny, what are you saying?
30:59If you keep talking nonsense, I'll report it to Old Master and have him break your legs.
31:02What did I say? Did I say something wrong?
31:03You're wrong!
31:05Get away now! Stop talking nonsense!
31:08- Stop sowing discord!- Look for Old Master! Don't forget to look for Old Master!
31:10Go out, Nanny!
31:14Young Miss, Nanny doesn't even know how to read.
31:16Don't listen to her.
31:18Even though the Yang family isn't as rich as the Li family,
31:20he's still a distinguished son of a Pillar of State.
31:22What's more, he treats you very well.
31:25Is he really nice to me?
31:27If he was really nice to me, when I begged him that day,
31:31he would have let me borrow some more dowry.
31:34He even scolded me with a cold shoulder.
31:36If not for us being betrothed, I wouldn't even smile at him.
31:41He's thinking that after our betrothal, this thing is done and I will obey him?
31:47- Doesn't he know... that... I have other choices?- Young Miss...
31:51Now, think of a way to get close to the Duke of Fucheng.
31:54I want to know his whereabouts for the next few days!
31:57No, Young Miss! You're already betrothed to Heir Apparent Yang.
32:01Isn't that the conclusion we came to last time?
32:03The Duke of Fucheng is hated by the Emperor.
32:06As long as he's favored by the Grand Preceptor, that's enough.
32:10Jialuo is most likely not an issue now.
32:13I think the Duke of Fucheng still harbors a hatred for Jialuo's disloyalty.
32:20As long as I run into him several times
32:22and say some thoughtful things,
32:24I believe that he'll become really perturbed.
32:28How could a measly wife of a commandery duke compare to a princess consort?
32:34You mustn't, Young Miss!
32:35You're getting married soon.
32:38I'm not married yet. I still have a chance.
32:43Once I've become a princess consort, I would be equal with Banruo.
32:50That Jialuo will have to bow to me
32:51whenever she sees me.
32:55What about Heir Apparent Yang?
32:56Aren't you giving him a scented purse?
32:58He must be waiting for you in the garden now.
33:12Mantuo!
33:14Older Brother Jian.
33:15Why did you ask to meet me here?
33:20If something has frustrated you, you must tell me.
33:26No, no, nothing.
33:28I am just...
33:30suddenly not in the mood.
33:32I'm tired now.
33:35I'll quickly send you back then.
33:38Older Brother Jian, I was too rude and impetuous last time.
33:45I didn't take the matter to heart.
33:48I was initially thinking of taking you to the outskirts for a trip once your mood was better.
33:52Look... See how intoxicating the spring wind is, such touching scenery.
33:55We can go hunting together for birds and rabbits.
33:59Then we'll roast them when we get back.
34:03Mantuo? Mantuo.
34:07All right, I have to go back now.
34:11Mantuo!
34:37What a coincidence.
34:39Your Highness, you're also here at Qingfeng Temple?
34:42Mantuo, you're here.
34:44I'm conducting religious rites for my deceased mother.
34:46This is my first time here.
34:48Your Highness, why don't you
34:51take me around
34:53so that I won't get lost?
34:55Qingfeng Temple is really big.
34:59There is a green hill behind the temple.
35:02The scenery is eye-catching.
35:04Really? Then I should bring Jialuo to have a look next time.
35:12But these past few days,
35:14she's always with my future brother-in-law.
35:17I've no idea when they started to be that close.
35:24It's good that they are in marital harmony.
35:30Your Highness, there is no one else here.
35:33Why act fierce in front of me?
35:37Actually, I know the matter between Jialuo and you.
35:44You know it?
35:46As the proverb goes, "Love is always heartless.
35:50Fate has already determined who we are to be with."
35:54I always see you frowning.
35:57Why should you keep thinking of those unhappy things?
37:10Reward the one who sent the news.
37:13Tell him that he did very well.
37:15Also, inform him that if in these few days,
37:17he can persuade the Duke of Fucheng to go hunting in the hunting grounds on the city outskirts,
37:20the reward will be doubled.
37:21Yes.
37:23Your Highness, the doctor already said that you shouldn't over-exhaust yourself.
37:29But you still must walk around.
37:31Just like now,
37:32coming to a hunting ground and shooting some birds, how good is that?
37:36Enough. No need to distract me.
37:40I won't regret any decision I have made.
37:44Your Highness, you and Young Miss Jialuo are so compatible.
37:50How could you be so cruel to do this?
37:53If I'm not cruel, she'll be left living in this world all alone in the future.
38:04You should know I can't bear for her to cry even one tear.
38:40Mantuo?
38:41Your Highness.
38:46Oh my.
38:48What a coincidence!
38:50We've shot at the same bird.
38:55It must be fate.
38:57There is no time like the present.
38:59Your Highness, my servant has prepared some nice tea over there.
39:03Why don't you have some and drink with us?
39:12Please follow me.
39:23- Please.- Please.
39:28What a good tea!
39:31Your Highness, you drank it too fast.
39:34You should sip slowly. Like this.
39:39Observe the leaves first.
39:44Then smell it.
39:46Afterward, slowly sip it.
39:52Come.
39:54Look. It's this way, right?
39:57Not right.
40:04This way.
40:15The taste is indeed much better!
40:19Your Highness, you're smiling!
40:24These past few days, you were always frowning.
40:27Even when you did smile, it was too strained.
40:30Finally today, you're smiling sincerely.
40:34Really?
40:37I know you've had a rough time.
40:42But because of my status, I can't comfort you.
40:48That Jialuo, she's too cruel.
40:52It has nothing to do with Jialuo.
40:55It's all my fault.
40:58Of course, it has to do with her.
41:01Actually, these few days as her sister, I feel ashamed.
41:07I never expected that Jialuo would do such a thing.
41:13Even if that Duke of the Longxi Commandery is quite wealthy,
41:17she shouldn't have been fickle with her affections and betray your love.
41:21You mean Jialuo really is being fickle?
41:25I suppose I shouldn't speak ill of my blood-related sister.
41:29Nevertheless, Jialuo has kept this secret from you for a long time.
41:34You may not know it but before you returned to the capital,
41:39she's been secretly accompanying that Li cousin of hers.
41:43She even met with him in secret in the Hongbing Courtyard.
41:50I'm telling you this because I don't want to see you sad.
41:56Actually, Jialuo is not that upright.
41:59She's not worthy for you to be sad and upset over.
42:06Your Highness, you should know that there are still a lot of people
42:11who are secretly worried about you.
42:17Really? It's my pleasure to know this.
42:25Come.
42:32Come.
43:08Your Highness, I've checked. That arrow wasn't shot at all.
43:13Someone stabbed it in after the bird fell.
43:16She is really very nimble.
