【ENG SUB】Consort Meng Arrives EP12 | Jin Chen / Jiro Wang / Liu Guanlin / Xia Yiyao | YOUKU
[Mengfei Comes Across] I have a bad feeling. His Majesty won’t deal with his brothers and they’re not close but he still lets them visit… It’s not a setup, is it? [Four Great Kings]
[Episode 12] Eat slowly, Your Highness. Nobody will take it from you. Slow down. Xiao Bei, that is plump goose
fed with a secret feed. It’s only offered to
the imperial household. It’s cooked in the imperial kitchen. It’s tender and leaves a delicious taste
in your mouth. Do you like it? Yes! I’m almost done with it! Give it to me! Give it all to me! West Prince, eat something.
Don’t just drink. Look at you. You always wear a cold expression.
That invites bad luck. I feel unbearably terrified
after being next to you for less than a quarter
of time an incense stick burn. You say so much nonsense. You won’t let me speak the truth? You two have always liked to bicker. You two have such a close bond that
it makes others envious. How wonderful. Envious? Your Majesty can take him away. West Prince carries
an awkward silence around him. When I see him on a hot day I feel a sense of penetrating cold as if I’ll turn into an ice cube. How long have you been in the palace?
How old are you? – Your Highness.
– Is there anyone you like? – Your Highness.
– Do you like my fan? Give me a smile
and I’ll reward you with it. Your Highness. It’s all right if you don’t smile. – Give me a kiss then.
– Shameless. I want to hear “smooch smooch”. Let her go. Shameless. It’s all right. East Prince has always been like this. Let them go. Continue. You know me the best. The ambiance here is amazing. Every female here has such delicate skin. They are most pleasing to my eye. Where is South Prince? That boor isn’t accustomed
to the water here. He’s been to the outhouse several times. Wu Weiyong. At your service. Send the imperial physician to see him. As you command. It doesn’t seem
like anything will happen. It doesn’t look like there is
any deep feud going on between them. They do seem like harmonious brothers. Was my gossip wrong? These dried persimmons taste lovely. Noble Consort Ru herself
plucked these for you all. Have a taste. Yes, I harvested these persimmons myself specially to offer to Your Highnesses. They are guaranteed to be delicious. As a show of respect, I’ll eat first. Eat it. My plan is about to come to fruition. Oh no! What’s wrong? What happened? Share the gossip or news with me. How come I can’t see what it is? Oh my gosh! His Majesty is
looking at me. Look, you guys. Is His Majesty going to
pick me tonight? I’m going to rise up! Consort Meng, you look like
you have something to say. Come forward. Why am I being called? If you want to murder your brothers,
don’t make me an accomplice. Oh no. Protect His Majesty! Run. Attack! Withdraw! Chase them! Why did you drag me off? That hurt. Don’t tell me you wanted to stay
to catch the assassins. It was all your fault. If you hadn’t wanted
to murder your subordinates by feeding them
the incompatible food pairing of goose and dried persimmons we wouldn’t be
in such a dreadful situation. Speak with caution. That was Noble Consort Ru’s idea. I didn’t know those two foods
were incompatible until you just told me. All right, I believe you. Last time, it was one assassin. This time, there are three. Be honest. Are you afraid? I’m used to it. Oh, right! I saw a tattoo on the assassin’s arm. That’s an important clue! I’ll draw it for you. What’s wrong? The fight was too chaotic and I saw just a glimpse of the tattoo. I forgot it. It’s all right.
You’ve done very well already. You’ve already exceeded my expectations. I give you a thumbs up. If my Mr. Perfect were here he would’ve memorized
this tattoo perfectly. He is the Perfect Memory Sleuth
and never forgets what he sees. I’m so inferior. Perfect Memory Sleuth? How does he look? The best, of course! He trounces all talented men in the world and wipes the floor with
all aristocratic men. All the women in the world
would love to birth his babies. Remember to hold up your jaw
the next time you talk big. How am I talking big?
I’m telling the truth. His name is Zhen Shishuang. He and I had
a mutual affection for each other and back then,
we nearly married each other! I said, back then. It’s going to be all right.
I’m just for looks. He doesn’t care about
his so-called concubines. Nothing’s too out of bounds. Marriage? Did he know about it? Of course he did. He’s the Mr. Perfect
buried at the bottom of my heart. He knows everything on my mind. It seems I’ll have to dig out a grave. What? You buried him in your heart. As far as I know Zhen Shishuang already
has someone he likes. You can stop daydreaming. You tripped while
walking on a level road! So stupid! I’ve never seen such a stupid woman. That’s… Stop eating! Men and women shouldn’t touch!
Why are you hugging me? Don’t hug me! Stop hugging me! Come help me! What’s going on? Look! He’s eating dried persimmons! Hurry! How dare you! I’m going to puke on your faces! Be careful. Yan’er, bring mung bean soup. Hurry! Let me go! What’s going on? I didn’t see this child eat
dried persimmons at the feast. Who knew this little devil would
be fond of snacking after dinner? He already ate a lot
when I came across him. Hurry! Mung bean soup. Let me go! – Here we go.
– Such impudence! How dare you abduct me! You even want to feed me
poisoned soup? Atrocious! All right now. Be a good boy. You’ll be fine after you drink this. Open your mouth. Good boy. One more sip. What’s going on? What’s all this ruckus
in the middle of the night? Do you want to die?
How can you treat him like this? We’re saving him. What happened to him? Goose meat and persimmons
are incompatible. In severe case, it can cause death.
Mung bean soup is an antidote. See? You can always find treasures
in front of the Cold Palace. What is it? “How to Eliminate a Consort
Without Anyone Knowing”. I’m interested! Wan Wan eats too many things. We need to study this or she might die and
we might not even know how. Look. “According to research” “goose meat contains
excellent quality protein.” “When protein comes across
the tannins in persimmons” “it can easily form albumin tannate” “and accumulate in the digestive system.” “In severe cases, it can lead to death.” That means goose meat
cannot be eaten with persimmons. Is that so? You should just explain it to him. Did you have to make him cry? It’s a good thing
Fang Hua Palace is mostly ignored or else, if others heard this we would be… Okay, okay. Lao Xiao, free him. Would this brat understand what we say? Who says I don’t understand? What did you understand? His Majesty wanted to harm me. Nonsense! Listen, it’s a misunderstanding. Incompatible foods isn’t
common knowledge yet. His Majesty didn’t know until afterward. You didn’t even know. Concubine Qu didn’t know either. There must be so many people
who don’t know. Right? You’re still young.
You should be more optimistic. You won’t grow tall if you have
all these nonsensical thoughts. Stop with all this useless
chicken soup for the soul. When His Majesty bestowed the persimmons,
I saw you all looking shocked. If you’re certain he didn’t know then for our safety’s sakes then even at the risk of
losing your life, you would’ve told us that goose meat and
persimmons are incompatible. But you didn’t. Why? Yes. Why? Because you also suspected
His Majesty intended to harm us. Is my analysis correct? There’s nothing wrong with this child. He can speak normally. And converse with others normally. Wan Wan, how does it feel to have
your intelligence insulted by a seven-year-old? You’re annoying. North Prince, stop imagining things. If you have any suspicions then nothing we say
would have any effect. All right, I’ll ask him myself. We’ve done all we could. Let him go ask. Then we can sleep in peace tonight. Your Majesty, look. That biggest one over there. It’s called Jade Of Your Wishes.
It is exquisite. That smallest one is very valuable. They’re jadeite earrings. These earrings are
will suit Consort Meng so well. She likes jadeite. Who says I’m picking out
something for her? I’m just giving
something random to dismiss her. Yes, Your Majesty. None of these look that great anyway. Then… this one. Help me give this to her. – Yes.
– Quickly. – Wu Weiyong.
– Yes, Your Majesty. What are you laughing for? Well, I’m laughing because it’s quite amusing when
Your Majesty won’t say what you think. Impudence! How can that be? Please calm down, Your Majesty. Weren’t you always annoyed
by Consort Meng? In the end, didn’t you still
gift those jadeite earrings to her? She is quite annoying. After all, she inherited her father,
Imperial Censor’s annoying bloodline. That’s a different matter though. I have to reward her because
she clarified this matter for me to North Prince. Understand? Greetings, My Lady. Consort Meng, this is
a gift from His Majesty. It’s beautiful! Why don’t we get any? I am just following orders. All right, Fu Xi, you may go. Yes, My Lady. These earrings look so nice on me! I envy you, but I don’t hate you. Take them if you like them. I wouldn’t dare. Meng. His Majesty is nice to you. Could it be that you two… What? He gave you a gift. Is he going to summon you
to his chambers next? As it is known, yin and yang
must be in balanced harmony. You and His Majesty need
to achieve this balance. That’s not my dream. You don’t want to? I do! I wish I could take your place. I want to take your place in
achieving this balance with His Majesty. You two. All right, enough talking. I’m off in search of freedom. Consort Meng, if you’re going out aren’t you going to wear the earrings
that His Majesty bestowed you? Wear it? As if I don’t have enough trouble already. There it is! Dongli State? Fire! Fire! Help! Hurry! Fire! Hurry! Is there anyone else inside? Hurry! Hurry! Must you be so crazy? I didn’t start the fire! Whoever said you did? If I’m not worried about assassins I’m worried you’ll kill yourself
by doing crazy things! Who am I doing this for? You! You’re doing it for yourself! You’re risking the life to solve the case
in the pursuit of your freedom. Since you so hate staying in the palace I promise to let you leave
when it’s all over. Really? Deal! I’m a man of my word. But you must make me a promise. Don’t be so reckless again. Safety first. All right? Of course! Freedom is beckoning to me. I will be sure to stay alive to enjoy it. What’s this? Why aren’t you wearing
the earrings I gave you? Do you think my sense of taste
is not good enough for you? No. How could a gift from you
not be good enough for me? I’m treating it with great care. As if I would believe you. Since you received a gift,
shouldn’t you give one in return? Yes. It smells amazing. My Lady, His Majesty will be so touched
when he sees you made chicken soup for him. Excellent job. What do you know? This chicken is my generous gift
in return for his. Here, try it. Let me try it. Say something! How is it? My Lady. This generous gift… might be too salty. Salty? There might be too much salt. I can just add some water. This should be good. Here. This chicken will
definitely be delicious. What will she have for me? What do I have that she doesn’t have? I can’t wait. Consort Meng, you’re finally here. His Majesty has been waiting all day. Eunuch Wu, this is the chicken soup
that I made myself for His Majesty. You just had to come.
There was no need to bring anything. Please enter. I’m going to offer a gift.
I’m not going to an execution. Why do you look as if you’ll be
mourning my death tomorrow? I wouldn’t dare. All right, head back to Fang Hua Palace. You’re here so soon. – Is your gift ready?
– Greetings, Your Majesty. What a coincidence. I just happen to be thirsty. Does it taste good? It tastes weird. Let’s talk about this later.
Where’s the gift? It’s what you drank. What/ You mean this chicken soup is the gift you prepared? Are you here on a death wish? No, Your Majesty! I cooked this myself. Not even my father has
enjoyed this special treatment before. Your Majesty is the first
to eat my cooking. Isn’t that a generous gift? So you’re saying you’re dismissing me
with a bowl of chicken soup? Do you think I’m that easy to please? – But…
– But what? I– What’s the matter, Your Majesty? Your Majesty! You must be an assassin. How dare you bite the hand that feeds you
and add laxatives to my food! Wait! No! – Your Majesty!
– You are so cruel! No! I didn’t! I’m innocent! Take Consort Meng away. What are you all doing? I’ll rip off the arms of
whoever dares to touch her. Calm down, Concubine Xiao. Noble Consort learned that
she poisoned His Majesty and invites her for questioning. I didn’t! What is this nonsense?
Why would she poison His Majesty? Exactly! Consort Meng wouldn’t
court disaster like that! The facts are in front of us. My ladies, please do not
dispute this with me. His Majesty collapsed from diarrhea
after drinking Consort Meng’s chicken soup. Is that not poisoning? Noble Consort is distressed from
seeing His Majesty’s pain so that is why she wants to question her. I’m innocent! There’s no need to say that to me. Noble Consort will not
wrongly accuse a good person and certainly won’t let any woman
get away with harming His Majesty. I… Consort Meng, please come. It’s all right. Eat and drink well. Kneel. Noble Consort, I feel I need to explain. Poor culinary skill isn’t that important. Intentions are more important. This was all a misunderstanding. I didn’t intend to poison His Majesty. It’s just that
I’m inexperienced at cooking soup. I didn’t think I would fail. That sounds all well and good but who knows if you’re
harboring thoughts of mutiny? If I don’t punish you
for this terrible mistake what would others think of me? My Lady, may I be so bold
as to ask you a question? You should know that ingesting
goose meat and persimmons together could lead to death in severe cases. His Majesty treated
the imperial princes to goose meat and then you offered dried persimmons. I made an unintentional mistake. But what intentions did you have? Presumptuous! Who allowed you to
shamelessly speak such nonsense? His Majesty and the imperial princes
may not be very close but they are still brothers. You interfered without
His Majesty’s permission. Did you want to resolve
a difficult situation for His Majesty and thus gain favor? That is the wrong way to go. Wench, do you think I’m afraid of you? This is merely your one-sided statement. As long as I say I had no idea,
I would be free of all blame. You harmed His Majesty but still hopes His Majesty will
believe your groundless accusations? Besides, if His Majesty
wanted to punish me I would’ve been punished already. But look. I’m doing just fine. I have to warn you. Angering someone
who shouldn’t be trifled with is more fatal than loving
someone you shouldn’t be loving. Lu Liu, slap her mouth. Yes, My Lady. Stop! What is going on? – Your Majesty, how come you’re here?
– Your Majesty. How haughty you are when I am not around! Your Majesty, what are you saying? I am merely worried about your safety. That’s why I thought to punish her. I should be punishing you. You’re the one who thought of
mixing goose meat and persimmons. – Your Majesty, I just–
– You what? You acted on your own
and wanted to harm my brothers so that we would be at odds. Don’t you deserve to be punished? Your Majesty! You are confined for one month.
Reflect on yourself. Consort Meng, thank you
for saving Xiao Bei. I drink to you in gratitude. That’s right! Consort Meng, just state what you want! If there’s anything on me that you like,
I can give it to you as a gift of thanks! I can’t believe someone would
want to tear us brothers apart! If you hadn’t stopped them,
the outcome would’ve been disastrous! Don’t mention it. Anybody would’ve done the same. All right, let’s drink. Your Majesty, I have a request. That is music to the ears! Xiao Bei knows how to make a request? You’ve always demanded
to have this and that. I thought you only how to make demands. Xiao Bei, speak freely.
Don’t be courteous. I want to take a wife. Her. What? Your Majesty, please spare my life! I didn’t seduce North Prince! Please investigate! What nonsense is this? She is your sister-in-law. His Majesty has so many wives.
It wouldn’t matter. Besides, His Majesty has
always given me what I wanted. Right, Your Majesty? Your Majesty, Xiao Bei
doesn’t know what he’s saying. Consort Meng must be innocent. Bring him back here. Come with me. Your Majesty, don’t take him seriously. Xiao Bei, do you know what a wife is? A wife is someone who
feeds me, sleeps with me and tells stories to me. Nanny Liu does all that. Is she your wife? That seems right. A man shouldn’t lust after women so much. Aren’t you more lustful
than any other man? Your words hold no sway. Don’t interrupt. Xiao Bei, look at me. I don’t have a single wife. Don’t be so greedy. Otherwise, Nanny Liu will be upset and won’t play with you
or tell you stories anymore. You’ll have to sleep alone too. Forget it, then. Wu Weiyong! At your command. Take Consort Meng to
wait at Changji Hall. Yes, Your Majesty. Everyone, today’s incident
was a misunderstanding. The persimmon incident was the same. It’s not easy to have
us brothers gather together. Let’s drink! Why do I have to wait here? Is there a new punishment? Why do I have such a tragic life? Who have I offended? It’s far too difficult to lead
a happy life in the palace. Your Majesty, I have done wrong. How so? I do want to leave the palace but I absolutely didn’t think to
use North Prince to take me away. You understand, right? I understand sometimes,
but I don’t understand other times. Sometimes, you’re a suck-up and
only interested in saving your own neck. Other times, you’re strong,
kind, and unafraid of danger. Did you have too much to drink? I’m not drunk. Now I can brag as much as I want. No, I’m not bragging. I’m a woman in my prime
who had to enter your harem and even deal with
all the dangers around you for you. I’m the epitome of virtue. If you could see my qualities you wouldn’t have
misunderstandings about me. If all the imperial concubines
could learn from me this world would be
such a wonderful place. Do my words have a hypnotic effect? No wonder he’s so well-received. How handsome. No! Calamity. He’s what’s known as
a calamity for women! I have to remain clear-headed. Clear-headed, clear-headed.
