[Music] [Applause] [Music] Heat. Heat. [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music] First bow to heaven and earth. Take ref. Second of all, the elders may love bow to each other. [Music] [Applause] [Music] Happiness. If only I had grown up with the Zhuangs, perhaps Yuchi and I, I would be as close once were. Things wouldn’t have come to this. [Music] [Music] And it is really you. And Hen, you married my father, didn’t you? Does that mean I have a man now? [Music] I’m just afraid that I won’t be a good mother. Ever since I could remember, other mothers cherish their daughters. But my mother was just a wooden memorial tablet. I called her a hund times, a thousand, 10,000 times, but she never responded to me. And you, you don’t want to be my mother either, Luni. What the? All right, stop crying. Okay. man does care for you. It’s just that we just got married. You need to be patient and give her some time. All right. She’s okay. All right. Stop crying now. It’s getting late. You should go to bed. [Music] [Music] I never meant to upset her. I’m sorry. It’s all right. Take your time. After what happened today, we all need time to recover. I believe everything you just said. Juan, Yuchi’s death was not your fault. Another disaster has struck. Joe Roy will never believe me. Did you send a letter to Chajing today? I only told her I plan to stay here. All the reason matters I’ve kept hidden from her. I don’t want her to [Music] worry. This was given to me by a servant earlier. From his words, it should be Chai Jing’s reply to you. [Music] Ha. I hope this letter finds you well. It has been over 3 years since we met in Danjo. I have often imagined perhaps one day we could set sail [Music] together, leaving the world behind, living side by side. But lately, I keep wondering, should I leave instead? With this broken body of mine, I can no longer protect you. I don’t want to be your burden. Yet, I couldn’t make the decision. No, you have someone who can protect you in mystead. I can finally be at peace. In the past and in the future, you will never be alone. Whether you need me or not, I will take your secrets with me and return to the sea. For that is where I truly belong. Drifting is my fate. Would you ever leave me in this life? Never. And if one day I find my own home, then I he will cling to you forever. I often think the world is full of dangers and hardships. When I grow up, I want to become someone who can protect myself. Even if one day you cannot defend yourself, don’t be afraid because I’ll be there for you. [Music] [Applause] [Music] Cheer hygiene. [Applause] [Music] [Music] Heat. Heat. [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Music] It’s beautiful. Even prettier than fireworks. You’ve never seen breathtaking fireworks, have you? I saw them while at sea. Fireworks. I see. I suppose they must be more [Music] dazzling in the future. If you marry and settle down, I promise you a sky full of radiant fireworks to celebrate. [Music] Marriage. I’ve never thought about it. Heartings are inevitable. But after today, I don’t know if we will ever meet at you in this life. May you live without worries, without fear, and find peace, joy all your life. Don’t do well. It’s chilly. Keep warm. Pardons are inevitable. Taji, you must look after yourself. I hope we will meet again someday. [Music] [Music] Mr. J, the funeral hall is ready. Please go and take a look. Ao is not Yoshi is not dead. Yi is not dead. He is not dead. He is not dead. It’s better to send Yuchi off early. Don’t miss the timing. [Music] Oh, sure. [Music] Ry co is on long roads when mar do not bear my thought has come to guide [Music] You don’t fear myself. That’s it. I failed to protect [Music] you. The next life, let us be father and son again. [Music] Ja, the son I raised for over 10 years, but for no reason. How will you make this up to me? Yoji was my only son. Before I could savor a day of his comfort, he passed away. I raised him. Who will make this up to me? It wasn’t you who raised him. Raised him with my own hands. Edwa was me. And also also my Yosha. I worked hard to raise them both. Now my son is gone. My daughter has ended up like this. If you won’t take responsibility, let go of me. Everyone here knows what you’re after. Stop using me as your excuse. [Music] Ryan, you’ve always been gentle and proper. Don’t make a scene. Don’t disturb Yoshi’s spirit. Gentle and proper. I’ve wasted half my life with the Joangs. Always enduring, lowering myself. But what was the result? My son is gone and now even my daughter has turned against me. Do you think I don’t feel the pain? Do you think my heart doesn’t ache? You take a viper as your father and shelter among schemers living in fear your crimes will be exposed. Naturally, it’s unbearable suffering. Master, do you truly believe? I know nothing of your deeds. Your grief has clouded your mind. Please stop speaking nonsense. Nonsense. [Music] I clearly remember at Pafu of Zohang Gandai. You often rambled in [Music] dreams. Stir. If you want to kill me, it’d be as easy as turning your head. But I am just a woman living under your roof. If your crimes are ever exposed and you die, well, how would I survive? So even if there are thousands who wish to kill you, I’d never be one of them. am willing to bury everything deep inside me forever. From this day forward, you and I shall be allies. [Music] Master, will you trust me? Say no more. I know what you want. greetings, madam. All right, go about your tasks. Yoshan, come over here. Come here, Miss Yoshan. [Music] Everyone stay sharp and efficient. Yoshan, from this day forward, you are the lineal daughter of the Joans. Go and change into something beautiful. No one in this household will dare to belittle us. Beautiful clothes. Among you’re in high spirits. It seems my brother’s death wasn’t in vain. At least it helped you fulfill your long-held wish. You finally claimed the position of model. Yosha, wasn’t I doing all this for you, too? From now on, you’re no longer Nino and I am no longer just a concubin. Call me mother rightfully. Leno or Nolino? Doesn’t matter. Since childhood, if not for your constant manipulations, I wouldn’t have cared about such things at all. You’re the one who cares about these things all along. [Music] Y’s death was caused by me and by you as well. He hit me really soul. I deserve it. Toi just stop calling me that. Remember this. Well, Yuch was not killed by you or me. The one who caused his death was Juan Han. She’s married into the Fu family, gaining Fu Yang se support. She will only go strong. But as of now, I am the madam of the Joangs, and you are the lineal daughter. We are esteemed. If you marry into a noble family, those two will no longer be a threat to us. Mother, whom do you want me to marry? The capital is filled with nobles and royals. With your beauty, it won’t be hard to find a good husband. Why must I marry into nobility? You were raised under my teachings. How can you even ask such a question? I’ve told you many times before. We women are like ruthless. Duckweed. Our foundation in life rests solely on our father and husband. Your father holds a humble position with no power or influence. Your future depends on your [Music] husband. So now that my brother is gone, mother is pinning all your hopes. All means that [Music] Do you want to be trampled under Joan Hyen’s feet forever? I don’t. But I also don’t want my life to be your tool for power struggles. You’ve achieved your [Music] dreams in the future. Just enjoy being madam of the house. Heat. Heat. [Applause] [Music] [Music] The medicine for the cold. It will make you feel better. No need. Since we’re married, we should act like a couple with mother and aunt. Please handle them with care. Try not to let them notice anything. Otherwise, it will cause trouble later. I will handle what’s within my duty. But there’s one more thing. I need your help with it. What is it? The night before mother and I left the capital, I had a meeting with Yuan Chang. Honey, Mr. Yoan, did your mother send you? My mother obtained the divorce letter. She plans to leave the capital tomorrow morning. Shun has finally agreed. Yes. [Music] Good. That’s truly wonderful news, Ha. I should thank you for it. I did all this so my mother could escape her suffering and fulfill her lifelong wish. Although you didn’t grow up beside Shivan, you truly are a wonderful daughter. Let’s set out tomorrow. Now that we’re free, we should depart early in the [Music] morning. It’s a pity that we failed to bring Jong to justice. Years of effort, all wasted in vain. Have you done anything else? Actually, over these years, I was never idol. Faced with Jang Shayang’s crimes. I’ve been gathering evidence hoping to have him arrested. Did you find any clues? I defend some, but I hit a wall at key points. I’ve compiled the evidence I found. It’s stored in a sandalwood box at the Department of Supervision. Actually, I’ve long made up my mind. Fuan refused to leave the capital. I’d spend my life fighting with Jang Shayang. I’d break through every obstacle, uncover the evidence and see him convicted and imprisoned. Shua has let go. Why should I hold on? We should leave the capital, find a serene place to live out our days away from all this treachery. The evidence is still at the department of supervision. The day I reached Shil stop, Mr. Yuan had already passed away. If we can find the evidence he’s gathered over the past decade, it would surely aid our cause. But for this matter, I’ll need your help to investigate. What? You can’t do it. Though I’ve regained my position, entering the department of supervision for a search is no simple task. If it were easy, why would I needed you? I’ll give it my best shot. Take it your medicine. [Music] Is Hanyen’s cold getting better? Mrs. Fool has rested for days and is much better. She even said she’d come to serve you tea today. Cozen. Coen, something terrible has happened. Why are you so flustered? Someone just sent a gift. I opened it. And what? Close it. Don’t look. Don’t let it taint your eyes. It’s all [Music] right. Cousin, are you all right? Quick, bring some tea. Have some tea. What’s going on here? There’s something I’ve been wanting to say for a long time. Everyone in the capital knows. When Miss Hane was born, a toist master called her a barefoot ghost. You know she enough. Let’s not speak of it. The Fool family is a house of virtue. We do not indulge in such superstitions. I didn’t believe it at first either. But think about it. She’s only been here a few days. And they sent such a disgusting gift. and the toist master. [Music] Ha. [Music] Greetings, mother. You’re still recovering. No need for that. I heard from the servants just now that a gift has arrived. Hen, don’t. So disgusting. Take it away. Hurry up. Miss Joan grew up in the countryside. You’re not faced at all by the skinned and gutted swan goose. Why fear a dead swan goose? I only know. Swang goose can be prepared in four ways. It’s heart, blood, skin, and meat can each be made into a dish. Since someone brought this rare treat and even prepared it, why let it go to a waste? All right, we’ll do as you say. Having such a fearless wife, Yenti is truly blessed. This room still carries a strong odor. Help Madam back to her room. Cosen, the smell here is strong. Puff, rest for now. [Music] Mrs. Fool, you truly have courage. Even if Lord Guang were here, he wouldn’t surpass you. In the future, this household will rely on you to manage. You flatter me. I’ve heard Yoni mentioned before, “When it comes to household management, you’re unmatched in the capital. I grew up in the countryside, unrefined and ignorant. I’m unfit for such responsibilities. Though handling affairs may seem easy, the household matters are quite complex. As the young madam, it’s your duty to oversee them. It’s best to start learning soon. Must you teach me? What? You don’t want to learn? Since you offered guidance, I wouldn’t dare refuse. I’ll follow your every instruction. Good. the rules I mentioned earlier. Did you remember them all? Yes, I did. All right, let’s practice them now. Let’s see if you truly remember them. Or if you’re just trying to fool me. [Music] [Music] The wine rinse. Let go. Aunt, why hit me? You just said earlier after madam finishes her meal, wine rinse is served. She had put down the chopsticks but hadn’t finished the soup yet. You rushed her off the table. Shouldn’t you be punished over such mistakes? Did I marry into the depths of H? How dare you? If madam were here and saw you behaving so she wouldn’t tolerate it at all. You’d have been kicked out already. Don’t judge others by yourself. Mother is always generous and kind. She wouldn’t be so petty. You think I’m py? Come with me to accounting room. Our household isn’t large, but there are still 20 to 30 people. Just the monthly allowances alone cost a fortune to that the daily purchases for free and supplies. Everything is recorded in these ledgers. It must be checked daily and balanced monthly. Not a single mistake is allowed. Do you know how to use it? I have learned a bit. Don’t underestimate these beats. They aren’t just for household expenses. Even the rise and fall of a nation is within this frame. Since you claim to know how to use it, let me see your skill with the abacus. Starting with the costs of your wedding banquet. Let’s begin. The embroidery brocade and plain silk from Siling Fan. One piece of each valued at eight tails. The yellow ropes and fabric from Lu Chen Shop. A total of five bolts valued at four tails. Two cotton quilts from Sanjang valued at three tails. Two trays of lamb, wine, and fruits. Five tails and seven maces. 20 catties of top grade pork. Three tails and four maces. 10 catties of beef. Six tails and five maces. Daniel yellow wine and white. Seven tails and two maces. He loves two tails and four maces. Goodness rice. One tail and none. Two tails and eight maces. Cut three maces. Got two tails and eight maces. One tail team long game is all secrets. One tail redes afraid you might bite your tongue reading too fast again. Scared already. You’re not teaching me management. You’re just afraid the new bride may take your rights. Am I right? Stop talking nonsense. I worked hard here for most of my life. You’ve just arrived and don’t even know the household well. Why wouldn’t I be afraid of you? You’ve spent most of your life here. In the end, you’re still an outsider. Yeah. Stop right there. Stop right there. What did you mean? Aunt, don’t worry. I have no interest in managing. Fine. If you don’t want to learn, I’ll have Yanik concubine. Someone will be willing to learn. If there’s another woman I can talk to, I’d surely be delighted. Really? Really? All right. I think madam’s maidu is quite suitable. She’s our age now and looks presentable. I think she’s I disagree. If you don’t like someone else, you’ve always been blunt. But why are you being so tight now? I’m only thinking of you. How can you speak to me like this? Hian just arrived. And you’re arranging a concubin for me. Do you have any respect for her? She agreed herself earlier. What does it have to do with me? You two are quite something. Now you’re teaming up. Playing good cup and bad cup. Putting on a show, right? Mark my words. I will never take a concubine or keep a chambermaid. Only Hanyen is my wife. From now on, you are not to interfere in our mashes. Ini, I raised you since childhood. Now that you’re married, you won’t let me intervene right from now on with family matters. Don’t come to me anymore. I’ll pack up and return to the countryside. Don’t try to stop me. [Music] [Music] [Music] I had no intention to argue with her, but she just won’t let it go. Do you truly want me to take a concub? Our marriage was built on mutual benefit. In this household, I only play the role of a beautiful wife. As for other matters, I have neither the right nor the intention to interfere. Have you visited there? I have. It’s heavily guarded there, making every move difficult. We can search openly. So far, there’s no progress. What about Mr. Yuan’s place? Last night with Muang and Muan, we searched thoroughly, but found no trace of the sandalwood box. Given the situation, we must proceed indirectly. [Music] What do you have in mind? The night my mother passed, I realized one thing. To become a noble lady in the capital, one must befriend high officials and do jukes and scholars of great repute. Do you know who is the top noble lady in the capital now? F noble consort mile. Indeed, if I can join her circle and establish ties with her, my influence in the capital would be immense. Whether it’s Juang Shayang or the Department of Supervision, everything will be within my grasp. Don’t burn yourself. She was an old rival to your mother and yet you still wish to rise with her home. What of old rivals? In this world, there are no eternal enemies with eth mutual interests. Enemies can become allies. After the lantern banquet, there were rumors from the palace. Noble Council Meow seems troubled. I want you to investigate this matter. Do you really want to get involved? Even if it’s treacherous, I’ll still wade through [Music] it. Mrs. It’s a fool. What is it? There are unpleasant rumors about you spreading in the household. Even the madame might have heard. What rumors? Wait, is it true? The other morning, I changed the bedding in Mrs. Fool’s room and saw with my own eyes. She seems a proper lady. Could it be that you were mistaken? I’m not blind. I can see whether there was a blood stain on that white silk sheet. Believe it or not, yes. What you said? True. Everyone’s gossiping. If I hadn’t overheard it and scolded them, it would have spread far and wide. Calm down. When Hanyen comes, I’ll ask her [Music] myself. Mother, Hane Yen, have a seat. You can’t and can’t be harsh. I’ll ask her. Yeah, I’m asking you on madam’s behalf before you married into the full family. Were you still a maiden? I don’t know what I’ve done wrong to deserve such a humiliating question. Please tell me, mother. Don’t use madam as a shield. I’m asking you. Just answer me. I have never acted improperly. Naturally, I am pure. Good. Let me ask you again. Since you claim to be pure, why was there no blood on the wedding night? Enough. Since Han says she is pure, trust she would not lie. Cousin, you’re being naive. Who admits to such things? It concerns our reputation. Why not have a female physician check? Then the truth will be clear. That’s inappropriate. What’s inappropriate about it? Madam is Miss Tan. Mother, she’s imperial physician from the palace. Mrs. Tan, greetings, madam. Miss Tan, please have a seat. Serve tea. Miss Tan, please. [Music] We’ve heard of your medical expertise. May I ask why you’ve come today? Mother, I’ve heard the rumors, too. So, I invited Miss Ten here. The servants lack discipline and speak nonsense. Apologies, Miss T. Mrs. Fu, what do you have to say? I’m not highly educated, but regarding propriety, I’ve never overstepped. Carlson, Mrs. Tan is an imperial physician with exceptional skills. Why not have Miss can examine her? If she is innocent, others will have nothing more to say. I was invited by Mrs. Fool. And if I declare her innocent, you might say we conspired together, making her innocence hard to prove and still facing gossip at home. If I declare she’s unclean, it would be just what you want. You could then expel her from the house. Am I right, Miss Tan? You misunderstood me. You are an imperial physician, surely uprighting in your duties. If I doubted you, wouldn’t I be doubting the palace, too? Rest assured, and examine her, whatever the result, I will not object. May I ask, is Mrs. Fool a foolish person? Certainly not. She is clever and wise. How could she be foolish? Even common folks know to fake purity. One uses a blood stain to white cloth and swaps it discreetly overnight. With Mrs. Fu wisdom, she surely understands this trick since she didn’t resort to it. It clearly proves she is honest and virtuous. Miss Tan makes a valid point. People are often foolish, making baseless judgments. But have you ever considered even the leaves in the forest are never exactly alike? Moreover, there are countless women, each unique, judging purity by a first night mark, these are mere superstitions. From ancient times until now, many women have suffered unjustly. Your family is upright and honorable. Don’t follow baseless rumors and create wrongful accusations. Masten speaks the truth. I was misguided. I’ve wronged the Hana. Mother, don’t blame yourself. I didn’t took it to heart. That’s good. Good to hear. The matter is resolved. I won’t disturb you further. I shall take my leave. Please, Miss Tan. Mr. Tan, let me see you out. Sorry to trouble you, Miss Tan. It’s all right. How are your mother’s legs lately? Has she been taking her medicine? mother is doing well. Thank you for your concern. Also, thank you for helping her stand up again to her. This is like a new life, just a small effort. No need to worry. By the way, has a noble consort been troubled lately? It’s a complex matter. I did not speak lightly. Take care, Man. Take care. [Music] Any progress? Take a look at this first. What is this? Written by the late Empress Statio. It’s a guide for for the contact of Palace Council. Recently, dozens of copies have been made. They’re being circulated all over the capital. All aimed at criticizing noble consort. But why? The crown prince is very young. The empress passed away due to illness. After the lunch and banquet, noble consort insisted on adopting the crown prince, hinting at ambitions of becoming empress. The ministers report to his majesty. Some demand her execution. His majesty is hesitant due to old ties. So minister stest this plan. O to use the guide to mock noble consort maliciously tight. They fear that as his majesty grows older should he one day pass in the young emperor sense noble console meow might seize control of the court. Yes. Lately there’s talk of court that five powerful ministers plan a joint memorial. If it reaches the palace it may be the final blow for noble consort. Noble consort is already in a precarious position. She can’t even protect herself and you still want to rely on her. No. If she remains secure in the palace, how could I ever gain her favor? To noble consult me, the ministers are like a sharp blade overhead. But to us, they’re the key to turning the tide. We just need to break them down one by one to save noble consort me. If she regains her position and her power is restored, just a single decree can strip Jan Shian’s protection. Then we can continue investigating and bring him to [Music] justice. Even if you save her, are you sure she will help you? Just let me enter the palace and it will surely succeed. This involves national affairs. A one wrong move could ruin everything. Fui, when did you become so cautious? When Joan Shang burned the encyclopedia, did he worry about failure? Now that we’re at the gambling table, he wants to be the banker. I want to be the banker, too. Then it’s time for a big gamble. Otherwise, how can we succeed? I knew I didn’t misjudge you. What do you mean? The courage is ready. Will you join me for a trip? Lady Jang was betrothed to Deng. When Deng was alive, she managed the household deligently. After Deng passed away, she mourned and tended his grave for life. Mari is the foundation of society. Jeng’s only son died young. Leady Jang remained faithful for years. She was finally honored by the court. She earned the title of virtuous and faithful widow. This is a joyous event for the family. Tonight the Dangs will host a banquet. This is a decree. The entire Deng family thanks his majesty’s grace. So the five ministers accusing noble council may remain hidden and unknown. I can only find out one of them. He has old ties with the Jans. It’s Mr. Deng. [Music] You put on a to visit tonight. During the visit, I’ll obtain a confidential letter. What? To shoot an arrow, you need a target. According to the informant, someone will deliver the joint memorial to Dangi for Men to sign. For us, the joint memorial is a list and a target. You’ve planned everything already. Since I promised to be my stepping stone and ladder to ascend, I have to fulfill it. But they are no ordinary figures. Once we confirm their identities, we must use every possible means, whether persuasion or caution, until they withdraw the memorial, going against highranking officials right under the emperor’s nose. Are you willing to do this? [Music] Why wouldn’t I? [Music] Do you know? [Music] [Music] lifting you. Lifting your Heat. [Music] Heat. [Music] Heat. [Music] Heat. N. Heat. [Music] Heat. [Music] Heat. Heat. [Music]
