Short filmTranscript
00:00Miss Xiao, Madam Zhen and Miss Nora bought birds' nests and new clothes this month.
00:05We're short on money again. What should we do?
00:08Use my money and put this pine tree at the entrance. General Gil loves it.
00:14Got it.
00:15General Gil is coming back victorious today. Make sure everything is perfect.
00:21Understood.
00:22You can go now.
00:25You're too careless. This bear is very important to Miss Xiao.
00:30If it gets damaged, it would be fair to kill you.
00:37Stones.
00:38In the winter of the 15th year of the Even Kingdom,
00:41the Duke and his heir died with a tired general to cover the Emperor's retreat.
00:47The general's son avenged him by killing 308 people in the Duke's manor.
00:53That night, he was drenched in blood.
01:01Today, I'm avenging my lord.
01:08Go to hell!
01:10Mom!
01:12Go to hell!
01:14Mom!
01:16Nina! Mom! Nina!
01:20Massacre the Duke's family? You're dead!
01:42With a storm's bear, all others are useless, are you?
01:50General Rosa from the North, what's your link to the Duke?
01:56You don't deserve to know.
02:04Mom!
02:08Mom!
02:12Mom, I'll take you to the doctor.
02:17It's too late.
02:19Listen, I know you're as skilled in martial arts as your father.
02:26Yes.
02:29Mom!
02:31No one in the Yan Kingdom can match him.
02:37As your mother, I hope you can live a normal life and not end up like him, dying in battle.
02:49I know you and the general James Gill are in love,
02:56but you've delayed your marriage because you've been with your father on campaigns for years.
03:05Mom, please stop. Let me take you to the doctor.
03:09Okay, let's go.
03:20This hairpin was the engagement gift from your father and me.
03:26James is talented and virtuous.
03:30He's a good match if you marry him.
03:34I can't rest in peace.
03:39My dear, I'm afraid I won't get to see you married.
03:53Mom!
03:54Mom!
04:05Sorry for making you suffer, old friend.
04:08Put it away.
04:14Miss Sha!
04:16Miss Sha!
04:18Be careful. You might not find a husband if you keep this up.
04:22General Gill is back. He should be at the door by now.
04:26Miss Sha, why are you just standing there?
04:28After the wedding, General Gill went to war.
04:31For the past three years, you've handled everything for the family and even used your dowry to help out.
04:38If General Gill knew, he'd appreciate you even more.
04:43Stop.
04:44Let's go, Miss Sha.
04:46Honey! You're finally back!
04:50Come on. I've set up your room just how you like it.
04:54If anything needs changing, I'll have the servant fix it. Let's go.
05:00Nina, I want you to meet someone.
05:06Lillian!
05:07I want you to meet someone.
05:12Lillian!
05:23You are James' wife, right?
05:25I'm Lillian Lane, his fiancée.
05:29Fiancée?
05:30General!
05:33Are you taking a concubine?
05:35No.
05:36Miss Sha, don't listen to her.
05:39General Gill would never do that to you.
05:46General Gill, what's going on here?
05:52Lillian is too high status to be a concubine.
05:55She's marrying me and will be your equal as my wife.
06:01What? Equal?
06:07Miss Sha!
06:08General Gill, Miss Sha's been running the household for three years.
06:12Your pay is low, and she used her dowry to keep things going.
06:16Without her, this place would have fallen apart.
06:19Where'd you get the money to spoil your mistress?
06:21How could you do this to Miss Sha?
06:22How dare you! How do you manage the servants? They have no manners.
06:25Manners?
06:28You're taking a concubine and brought her into our home without even asking me.
06:33Do you understand manners?
06:35Besides, what did Cherry say that was wrong?
06:39If you did it, why can't it be said?
06:42You!
06:43James, don't bother with her.
06:45It'll only cause more problems.
06:47She's just a housewife. No matter how much she resists, she can't stop our marriage.
06:52I can control your marriage.
06:54But did you even tell your mother about taking a concubine, General?
06:58Without proper arrangements and elder approval,
07:02it's not acceptable.
07:04As the Princess of Tiris, you know this, right?
07:07Don't talk so arrogantly, or don't blame me for being tough.
07:11General Gil, you might want to try that.
07:14Nina, as a wife, you shouldn't speak to your husband like this.
07:19Mother.
07:20My dear, you're finally home.
07:22I worry every day while you were at the border.
07:25I'm afraid something may happen to you.
07:27What would I do if it did?
07:29Mother, I'm back safe now.
07:31I probably won't going back to the border.
07:34Good. I'm glad you're back.
07:36Mother, let me introduce you.
07:38This is Lillian Lane, the Princess of Tiris.
07:40I want to marry her.
07:42Mother.
07:45Well, Nina runs the manor now.
07:49If you want to take a concubine, you need her approval.
07:54I'll go with Nina's decision.
07:57Retreat to advance?
07:59She's quite a schemer.
08:01Mother, I'm not taking a concubine.
08:03She'll be my wife too.
08:04Lillian is a Tiris princess, and she helped negotiate Tiris surrender.
08:08She's willing to lower her status to marry me.
08:11But this is a union between Yvonne and Tiris.
08:13It's important and not to be taken lightly.
08:16She can't be a concubine.
08:21Well, then, Nina...
08:25Mother, Lillian is pregnant with my child.
08:29Our family doesn't have many heirs.
08:31I took her as a wife to give our child a proper status.
08:36Princess of Tiris! How dare you, James!
08:40You know my entire family was killed by the Tiris.
08:43Yet, you got their princess pregnant and brought her back, forcing me to agree.
08:51The Gill family's children must stay within the family.
08:55Nina knows what's important.
08:57She should see that.
09:00I don't think Nina will object to Lillian marrying you now, right?
09:10Well...
09:14What if I do?
09:17What if I do?
09:23Why would you disagree?
09:25Emotionally, James and I are in love.
09:28As for status, I'm a princess of Tiris.
09:31Are you asking a princess to be a concubine?
09:34Yeah, Nina.
09:36With Lillian's status, she's more than qualified to be his wife.
09:40She can't be a concubine. Don't worry.
09:43After Lillian marries James, he'll still be the hostess.
09:50James, do you remember who killed all 318 members of my family?
10:01And what promises you made before you went to war?
10:13I'll love only you forever and never betray you.
10:24Why dwell on the past?
10:26I've said Lillian's status is high, so she'll be equal to you once married.
10:31Stop being unreasonable!
10:33Nina, this doesn't need your approval.
10:37I'm just worried about how the missile might affect your reputation
10:41and how James might be criticized.
10:43Otherwise, why would I put up with sharing a husband and having you stay here?
10:47So, should I thank you for graciously allowing me to stay?
10:54Don't try to provoke me.
10:56I'm not like you, stuck in the house, doing housework and hiding behind a man.
11:03I know how to accept others.
11:07Princess, how dare you!
11:09Acting like the general's wife before you're even married.
11:15Nina, don't push it.
11:17You're just an orphan from a duke's manor.
11:20While I'm a princess, it's obvious who's a better match for James.
11:25If you cooperate, I can ensure you're well taken care of.
11:29If not, I'll make sure you don't even get a hot meal.
11:35Do you know whose money is funding the general's manor?
11:44Nina, don't go too far.
11:47Lillian's right.
11:49With the duke's family gone, you're just an orphan now.
11:53I've never cared that you can't help with my career.
11:59But Lillian is a princess and helped with the surrender.
12:03Marrying her will ensure a bright future for me.
12:06I promise I'll treat you well and make up for the years of hardship.
12:16So, one is shameless and the other is brazen.
12:20You two are a perfect match.
12:23Can you-
12:24If people knew their beloved general came home to favor a concubine
12:30and took one who's still another's husband and has no shame,
12:34what would they think?
12:38You threatened me!
12:40Nina, I thought you were virtuous.
12:43But you're actually jealous and petty.
12:45You'd ruin my reputation just to stop me from marrying Lillian.
12:48Let alone that I haven't done it yet, even if I did.
12:51So what?
12:52You two are already involved in an improper relationship.
12:55Why worry about what others think?
12:59So since you can't win the argument, you're going to hit me instead!
13:06Nina, all men have multiple wives and concubines.
13:11And don't let this hurt your relationship with James.
13:15James is only trying to help you.
13:18You're an orphan now and will need our family's support in the future.
13:23Twisting the truth.
13:25I must have been blind to choose such a terrible family.
13:32Forget it. Just consider it my mistake all these years.
13:38What are you laughing at?
13:39Then I wish Princess Lillian and General Gil a long and happy life together.
13:46I, Nina Shaw, don't belong here anymore.
13:55Cherry, let's go.
13:59What do you mean?
14:00Let go!
14:06Miss Shaw!
14:09General Gil, Miss Shaw was hurt protecting you years ago.
14:14Her wound keeps recurring.
14:16Have you forgotten all the pain and struggles you both went through?
14:23Don't you care about your past with Miss Shaw?
14:26How dare you!
14:27A servant speak out of turn!
14:31That is insubordination!
14:33If this gets out, how will the Gil family hold its ground in Glory City?
14:39Someone take her away and give her 30 strokes to teach her a lesson.
14:45Got it!
14:46Don't you dare!
14:48Cherry is my mate.
14:51From my dowry, do you think the Duke's family is gone so you can bully me, an orphan?
15:03Nina, I'm just disciplining a servant.
15:09Don't overthink it.
15:13Cherry, let's go.
15:17Let's go.
15:33Miss Shaw, if you really want to go, at least let the doctor treat your wounds.
15:41Miss Shaw, please don't scare me!
15:47Leave? Why should I?
15:51I'll make sure this place knows no peace!
15:57Cherry, get the paper.
16:00Got it.
16:06Mom, I want to stay with you forever.
16:12Let me be your comfort always, okay?
16:15Silly, a girl has to marry someday.
16:20Besides, you are so beautiful.
16:23You deserve the best man out there, okay?
16:27Well, I don't have many wishes.
16:31I just hope you find a good husband and be happy together.
16:41Mom, I'm afraid.
16:44I've let you down.
16:52Lillian's status is high, so she'll be equal to you once married.
17:01What do you mean?
17:02Let go!
17:04So since you can't win the argument, you're going to hit me instead.
17:15Miss Shaw!
17:18Miss Shaw!
17:21They're bullying us because the Duke's family is gone.
17:24Master and young master died in battle to save the Emperor.
17:28The whole household of 318 was slaughtered by the Tyrus people.
17:33I don't expect them to pity you.
17:36But how can General Gil put the enemy's daughter on the same level as you?
17:40It's like stabbing you in the heart!
17:43They're going too far!
17:46Go, get hot water ready.
17:49I need to bathe and change.
17:53Miss Shaw, given the situation, why are you bathing?
17:59Do I look like someone easily bullied?
18:04Then hurry up, or I'll be late for the palace.
18:11I know you have a way.
18:14If you ask the Emperor to step in, this marriage won't happen.
18:18No.
18:20They'll have to get married and have a big celebration.
18:41Greetings, Your Majesty.
18:45General Rosa, please rise. Someone, give her a seat.
18:48Thank you, Your Majesty.
18:50General Rosa, are you here about James and Lillian's marriage?
18:56Do you want me to stop it?
19:01Rosa, I know you're unhappy about the Tyrus princess marrying James after they destroyed your family.
19:07But this marriage is important for the alliance between Tyrus and Yvonne, which makes it tough for me.
19:16You...
19:17I did come about this.
19:22But rest assured, Your Majesty, I am not ignoring the bigger picture.
19:28However, today is the day of suffering for the 380 members of my family.
19:38And my mother's death anniversary.
19:49I humbly ask for your favor, for my family's loyalty.
19:56You're very filial. Go ahead.
20:08I'm requesting a decree to dismiss my husband.
20:13What? Dismiss James?
20:18What? Dismiss James?
20:21James?
20:35I want a lifetime of love with just each other.
20:46Why put yourself through this?
20:52James really mistook a gem for a stone.
20:56If he knew General Rosa, who once defeated the northern barbarians, was you, would he even notice Lillian?
21:04If that's the case, he'd be marrying General Rosa, not me, Nina Shaw.
21:11You are... you are being too stubborn.
21:16James is too heartless.
21:19I only gave him a small job when you begged me for one based on your achievements.
21:24Otherwise, how could a nobody like him be where he is now?
21:30Your Majesty, since I chose not to make this public, let's not mention it now.
21:41Alright. I always thought he wasn't worthy of you.
21:46But Rosa, there's no precedent for a woman dismissing her husband in our kingdom.
21:54If you insist, you'll face the five steps through fire.
21:59Five steps through fire?
22:01According to the tradition, any woman in our kingdom seeking divorce must walk five steps on burning coals.
22:10Hence the name, five steps through fire.
22:16I'm willing to take that punishment.
22:21Rosa, are you sure? A woman's skin is important.
22:27If you go through the five steps through fire, the skin on your feet will be ruined.
22:32Compared to dignity.
22:36A woman's skin, looks, and even life are insignificant as wheat.
22:45If it means escaping the Gill family, even death is worth it.
22:56Michelle, don't go!
22:58Michelle! Michelle! Michelle!
23:06Michelle!
23:07Your Majesty.
23:17Your Majesty, I will take the punishment in Michelle's place.
23:22I'll take double the punishment.
23:24If five steps aren't enough, I'll walk ten, a hundred, a thousand, ten thousand steps.
23:29The entire Dukes family gave their lives for this kingdom, and now only Michelle is left.
23:35Please, Your Majesty.
23:39Show mercy!
23:41Please!
23:45Cherry, stop. Leave now.
23:48Michelle, please, calm down.
23:55Rosa, you can still change your mind.
23:59Change my mind?
24:02I regret not seeing James' true nature sooner.
24:07Your Majesty.
24:14I will dismiss him.
24:24Wait!
24:27Mother, why are you here?
24:29Your Majesty, I heard you were planning to punish Nina with the five steps through fire.
24:34Empress Dowager!
24:36Please, save Michelle!
24:39Your Majesty, have you forgotten who risked her life to save you when you were trapped at Frostmount?
24:47Who carried you for three days and nights while you were badly wounded?
24:54Nina walked for three days with an injured leg to save you.
25:04Mother, I would never forget, but Nina wants a dismissal, and that's against our laws.
25:10I had no other choice.
25:13The tyrant barbarians wiped out her entire family, and now you're letting their princess move in and be her equal.
25:25How could she accept that?
25:27You're already wronging her by not stopping their marriage.
25:31And now you want her to endure the five steps through fire?
25:35Are you trying to kill her?
25:38Mother, I don't want her to suffer, but it's an ancestral rule.
25:45I can't break it.
25:46If I make an exception for her, how will I face the officials?
25:51How will I face our ancestors?
25:53But she shouldn't have to suffer like this.
25:57She's the last of the Duke's family.
26:01She's the last of the Duke's family.
26:06Thank you for your concern, Empress Dowager.
26:09I asked His Majesty for this punishment myself.
26:13I'm willing to endure it if it cuts with the Gale family.
26:19I won't share a husband with my enemy's daughter.
26:31Please agree to this, you stubborn girl.
26:42Mom, I have let you down.
26:46No one can be trusted in this world.
26:49I have to depend on myself to survive in these unpredictable times.
26:57I hope you will forgive me.
27:17Misha!
27:26Girl, you...
27:29Why are you doing this?
27:37Please stop!
27:40I'm begging you, please!
27:43It'll ruin your feet if you keep going!
27:47Please stop!
27:49Once you start, there's no turning back.
27:57But...
28:02Why are you so stubborn, like your mother?
28:12If my body hurts, at least my heart won't.
28:16From now on, I can only move forward...
28:22and never look back.
28:28Empress Dowager, please!
28:30Have His Majesty save Misha!
28:33She won't be able to handle the five steps through fire.
28:37You need to order her to stop!
28:41Mother, even if I agree, she won't calm down on her own.
28:51Misha!
28:57Misha!
29:02Mother!
29:05Misha!
29:08Please stop! Don't go any further!
29:12Misha!
29:14She must have suffered so much in the Qiong family.
29:19To be willing to endure this...
29:24Our kingdom owed her so much.
29:31James deserves to be punished!
29:38Misha!
29:40If Misha hadn't suffered so much, she wouldn't be doing this.
29:45The Gil family is terrible!
29:49Misha is truly the greatest heroine of heaven.
29:53Brave and passionate, General Gil.
29:56Really messed up.
30:05Misha!
30:08I...
30:10I'll get some medicine for you!
30:37Please rise.
30:38Your Majesty, I've completed the five steps through fire.
30:44Please approve my dismissal.
30:55And issue the decree on their wedding day.
31:08As expected from General Rosa, decisive and unforgiving, this move is brutal and cuts deep.
31:16Having the wedding and the dismissal on the same day will make James lose face in the capital.
31:24It's a clever move.
31:26Your Majesty, you flatter me.
31:28Without your support, I would still be suffering.
31:35You've pulled me into this too.
31:40I promise you.
31:43I'll make James' wedding a grand affair.
31:47All the nobles in the capital will attend the wedding.
31:51They will come to see their big moment.
31:54Cherry, help Misha back.
31:56Don't let her get hurt more.
31:58Understood!
32:01Misha, you could have avoided this with your military achievements.
32:06Why go through this?
32:08I, Nina Shaw, am not a weak woman to be bullied.
32:16Anyone who tries to bully me will regret it forever!
