00:01:24.150 --> 00:01:29.630
= Love Like The Galaxy=

00:01:30.470 --> 00:01:33.590
=Episode 53=

00:01:45.750 --> 00:01:46.820
Miss Shaoshang.

00:01:47.660 --> 00:01:49.140
That day I spoke rudely

00:01:50.190 --> 00:01:52.420
and bluffed about
General Huo's love for me.

00:01:53.750 --> 00:01:55.300
Please forgive me.

00:01:56.620 --> 00:01:58.070
Ever since my husband passed away,

00:01:58.710 --> 00:02:00.420
Luo's family has been forcing me

00:02:00.870 --> 00:02:02.590
to get married soon

00:02:02.910 --> 00:02:04.470
and to play up to people of power again.

00:02:05.150 --> 00:02:06.060
Or else,

00:02:06.620 --> 00:02:08.380
they're going to make me
marry in the Northwest.

00:02:09.430 --> 00:02:11.510
A woman of no good like me

00:02:12.110 --> 00:02:13.620
could find a good match
for the first marriage.

00:02:14.300 --> 00:02:15.230
But for the second marriage,

00:02:15.550 --> 00:02:17.230
there're not many choices left.

00:02:18.340 --> 00:02:19.340
Therefore,

00:02:20.470 --> 00:02:21.940
I was getting anxious.

00:02:22.940 --> 00:02:23.870
Therefore,

00:02:25.340 --> 00:02:27.230
you didn't want to let go of Huo Buyi.

00:02:28.470 --> 00:02:30.510
I have admired General Huo since I was young.

00:02:31.700 --> 00:02:32.830
I always long

00:02:33.230 --> 00:02:34.710
to be with him.

00:02:39.740 --> 00:02:41.230
Sadly, he doesn't think the same.

00:03:01.990 --> 00:03:03.660
The worst thing I did

00:03:04.740 --> 00:03:06.430
was to overestimate myself

00:03:07.270 --> 00:03:08.790
and underestimate General Huo's love

00:03:09.350 --> 00:03:10.630
for you.

00:03:11.430 --> 00:03:13.070
I deserve to be insulted

00:03:13.510 --> 00:03:14.590
in public.

00:03:15.460 --> 00:03:16.660
General Huo

00:03:17.150 --> 00:03:18.660
gave my father the mirror

00:03:18.870 --> 00:03:20.590
in front of so many people,

00:03:21.100 --> 00:03:22.790
saying it's for my wedding gift.

00:03:23.100 --> 00:03:24.590
I can't imagine

00:03:25.270 --> 00:03:27.540
how embarrassed my father was.

00:03:36.660 --> 00:03:37.870
Don't stare at me.

00:03:39.340 --> 00:03:40.780
I don't want to deal with him.

00:03:41.150 --> 00:03:43.430
I won't plead for his mercy for you.

00:03:43.990 --> 00:03:45.990
I also won't persuade him to marry you.

00:03:47.020 --> 00:03:48.460
This is your own business.

00:03:51.550 --> 00:03:52.500
No.

00:03:53.550 --> 00:03:54.780
The one-sided infatuation

00:03:55.620 --> 00:03:56.870
that lasted for five years.

00:03:58.060 --> 00:03:59.340
That was enough.

00:04:00.150 --> 00:04:01.430
How many five years

00:04:02.390 --> 00:04:03.950
does a woman have?

00:04:05.390 --> 00:04:06.460
I came today

00:04:06.740 --> 00:04:08.460
to tell you

00:04:09.020 --> 00:04:10.220
that I've decided

00:04:10.620 --> 00:04:12.550
to spend the rest of my life
in the Northwest.

00:04:13.710 --> 00:04:14.740
Farewell

00:04:15.740 --> 00:04:17.060
forever.

00:04:19.270 --> 00:04:20.710
I've found a carriage.

00:04:21.590 --> 00:04:22.740
I'll depart tonight.

00:04:23.710 --> 00:04:25.150
I wish you and General Huo

00:04:25.740 --> 00:04:27.340
will stay together forever.

00:04:27.710 --> 00:04:30.670
Or else I'll be upset in the Northwest.

00:04:45.950 --> 00:04:47.620
I've let go of

00:04:48.390 --> 00:04:50.180
my obsession with Huo Buyi.

00:04:51.550 --> 00:04:53.710
But I have to do one thing

00:04:54.990 --> 00:04:56.740
for Empress Xuan.

00:05:05.430 --> 00:05:07.270
Since Empress Xuan fell sick,

00:05:07.460 --> 00:05:10.300
she has been missing you.

00:05:11.150 --> 00:05:12.060
Now

00:05:12.180 --> 00:05:14.150
you're finally back, General Huo.

00:05:19.150 --> 00:05:20.870
How's Empress Xuan's condition?

00:05:21.270 --> 00:05:22.620
Physician Sun said

00:05:22.870 --> 00:05:24.390
that she has been too depressed

00:05:25.060 --> 00:05:26.740
and it's hard to be cured.

00:05:27.300 --> 00:05:29.670
Her condition worsened this morning.

00:05:30.670 --> 00:05:32.590
Her Majesty couldn't even get up.

00:05:41.150 --> 00:05:42.300
I get it.

00:06:06.390 --> 00:06:07.220
Her Majesty.

00:06:16.020 --> 00:06:17.750
Is that Zisheng?

00:06:35.190 --> 00:06:36.190
It's me.

00:06:47.980 --> 00:06:49.310
You lost weight.

00:06:51.510 --> 00:06:53.190
I think about the capital

00:06:54.780 --> 00:06:55.950
and dare not slack off.

00:06:56.830 --> 00:06:58.750
Are you thinking about the capital

00:07:00.070 --> 00:07:01.340
or

00:07:03.310 --> 00:07:04.950
Shaoshang?

00:07:07.390 --> 00:07:08.830
There's something

00:07:09.950 --> 00:07:11.710
I want to tell you.

00:07:13.630 --> 00:07:15.750
Yuan Shanjian and Shaoshang

00:07:16.980 --> 00:07:18.660
aren't engaged.

00:07:31.900 --> 00:07:32.900
I know.

00:07:34.150 --> 00:07:35.830
Shaoshang

00:07:36.950 --> 00:07:38.710
still cares about you.

00:07:42.190 --> 00:07:43.390
I know that too.

00:07:45.390 --> 00:07:46.660
It's my fault.

00:07:48.310 --> 00:07:49.510
I've decided

00:07:52.310 --> 00:07:54.220
to use my whole life to atone.

00:08:12.460 --> 00:08:13.980
When she was young

00:08:14.710 --> 00:08:16.830
and needed to be loved most,

00:08:17.660 --> 00:08:19.750
she wasn't loved by her family.

00:08:23.220 --> 00:08:24.900
If you want to love her,

00:08:25.780 --> 00:08:26.950
you've to make up

00:08:27.420 --> 00:08:29.190
for her grief.

00:08:29.900 --> 00:08:31.340
Don't always make her

00:08:31.540 --> 00:08:33.710
understand your choice.

00:08:34.510 --> 00:08:36.100
Only by discussing

00:08:37.340 --> 00:08:39.590
can you keep walking side-by-side.

00:08:40.860 --> 00:08:41.950
Yes.

00:08:44.420 --> 00:08:45.980
From now on,

00:08:47.860 --> 00:08:49.270
I'll be honest to Shaoshang

00:08:50.340 --> 00:08:51.630
and tell her everything.

00:08:53.860 --> 00:08:55.540
I'll not hide anything from her.

00:08:58.270 --> 00:08:59.630
Sadly,

00:09:01.020 --> 00:09:02.710
time is short.

00:09:05.020 --> 00:09:06.150
I'm afraid

00:09:07.070 --> 00:09:09.710
I won't be able to see you marry.

00:09:19.750 --> 00:09:21.070
It's my fault.

00:09:28.710 --> 00:09:30.070
I've made you worried.

00:09:41.860 --> 00:09:43.660
I only hope that

00:09:44.900 --> 00:09:46.100
in my next life

00:09:47.900 --> 00:09:51.750
the two of you
can be my biological children,

00:09:53.150 --> 00:09:55.340
and I can live a few more years

00:09:56.310 --> 00:09:58.070
to be with you

00:09:59.460 --> 00:10:01.390
and smile at my death bed.

00:10:03.190 --> 00:10:04.980
Such a life

00:10:06.220 --> 00:10:08.310
would be perfect.

00:10:42.710 --> 00:10:43.620
Lady Luo.

00:10:44.620 --> 00:10:46.260
Haven't we arrived at

00:10:46.430 --> 00:10:47.670
the miracle-working physician
you mentioned?

00:10:48.140 --> 00:10:50.310
When I was
looking for medicine for Qilang,

00:10:50.550 --> 00:10:52.430
I asked my friends and family

00:10:52.430 --> 00:10:54.430
to inquire about many medical experts.

00:10:54.430 --> 00:10:55.950
At last, I chose this one.

00:10:56.590 --> 00:10:57.550
This physician is

00:10:57.550 --> 00:10:59.460
the best in treating depression.

00:11:01.140 --> 00:11:02.620
If you don't believe me,

00:11:03.190 --> 00:11:04.670
you may go back to Changqiu Palace.

00:11:06.030 --> 00:11:07.430
I'm afraid Empress Xuan

00:11:07.950 --> 00:11:09.220
can't hold on any longer.

00:11:14.340 --> 00:11:15.590
Stop the carriage first.

00:11:16.070 --> 00:11:17.340
Please tell me

00:11:17.590 --> 00:11:19.380
the exact location.

00:11:19.550 --> 00:11:21.430
So I can go back to inform His Majesty

00:11:21.860 --> 00:11:23.190
and come back
to visit with precious gifts.

00:11:24.070 --> 00:11:25.340
Miss Shaoshang.

00:11:25.710 --> 00:11:27.140
Don't you trust me?

00:11:30.860 --> 00:11:31.860
Look.

00:11:32.430 --> 00:11:34.740
My entire asset is in this carriage.

00:11:35.190 --> 00:11:36.860
I came to the capital with these

00:11:37.260 --> 00:11:39.670
and I'm leaving
the capital with these as well.

00:11:40.220 --> 00:11:41.980
I've decided to
go back to the Northwest.

00:11:42.550 --> 00:11:43.710
Would I harm you

00:11:44.340 --> 00:11:45.740
before I leave?

00:11:56.620 --> 00:11:58.790
General Liangqiu sent a letter

00:11:59.030 --> 00:12:02.070
to request General Huo's
presence for an urgent matter.

00:12:06.380 --> 00:12:07.430
Go ahead.

00:12:09.430 --> 00:12:10.910
When you see Shaoshang,

00:12:11.740 --> 00:12:13.670
talk nicely to her.

00:12:16.430 --> 00:12:18.670
She'll understand.

00:12:26.220 --> 00:12:27.220
Okay.

00:12:38.550 --> 00:12:39.500
General Huo.

00:12:39.620 --> 00:12:41.340
General Liangqiu said

00:12:41.340 --> 00:12:43.950
that Lady Cheng
was invited into Lady Luo's carriage

00:12:43.950 --> 00:12:46.070
and they headed to the suburbs.

00:12:46.070 --> 00:12:47.070
When did that happen?

00:12:47.260 --> 00:12:48.500
An hour ago.

00:12:56.340 --> 00:12:57.950
When you go back to the Northwest,

00:12:58.830 --> 00:13:00.500
you can choose another husband.

00:13:01.590 --> 00:13:03.070
If you can't find a good match,

00:13:03.430 --> 00:13:04.710
don't force yourself to take anyone.

00:13:04.710 --> 00:13:06.310
Who says a woman can't live a life

00:13:06.310 --> 00:13:07.620
without a husband?

00:13:09.030 --> 00:13:10.380
You don't understand.

00:13:11.310 --> 00:13:12.620
Other than General Huo,

00:13:13.380 --> 00:13:14.980
I'll not marry anyone else.

00:13:16.790 --> 00:13:18.190
He's not the only man

00:13:18.340 --> 00:13:19.860
in this world.

00:13:20.710 --> 00:13:22.590
Why must you be stuck with him?

00:13:25.070 --> 00:13:26.070
You don't understand.

00:13:26.460 --> 00:13:28.380
I have admired General Huo since I was young.

00:13:29.310 --> 00:13:30.710
But I was in a lowly state.

00:13:31.190 --> 00:13:32.500
I didn't dare to confess my love.

00:13:32.980 --> 00:13:35.220
And we're engaged
to someone else respectively.

00:13:35.430 --> 00:13:36.860
I thought there was
no hope in this life.

00:13:37.590 --> 00:13:39.380
But heavens had pity on me.

00:13:39.860 --> 00:13:41.980
General Huo and I
met again in the Northwest.

00:13:42.220 --> 00:13:44.140
You can never imagine

00:13:44.460 --> 00:13:46.220
how happy I was.

00:13:46.590 --> 00:13:48.260
It's as if when a drowning person

00:13:48.260 --> 00:13:49.830
finds a floating wood.

00:13:50.740 --> 00:13:51.670
Therefore,

00:13:53.260 --> 00:13:55.550
even when your husband was alive,

00:13:57.030 --> 00:13:58.670
you were already
thinking about General Huo.

00:13:59.190 --> 00:14:00.460
Do you know how it feels

00:14:01.740 --> 00:14:03.100
when you love someone deeply,

00:14:04.310 --> 00:14:06.980
yet you have to serve
another person with your body and mind?

00:14:07.340 --> 00:14:08.670
When I was on the bed,

00:14:08.860 --> 00:14:10.500
I couldn't stop thinking about him.

00:14:10.710 --> 00:14:11.980
I had to use Jia Qilang

00:14:11.980 --> 00:14:14.340
as Zisheng's replacement to endure it.

00:14:14.860 --> 00:14:15.910
I don't know.

00:14:16.590 --> 00:14:18.340
You don't have to
tell me such silly things.

00:14:18.340 --> 00:14:20.140
That's because you're heartless.

00:14:20.220 --> 00:14:21.670
Do you know how his life was

00:14:21.670 --> 00:14:23.100
when he was in the Northwest?

00:14:23.550 --> 00:14:24.950
He was fighting the enemy

00:14:24.950 --> 00:14:26.100
on the frontline with his life.

00:14:26.460 --> 00:14:29.030
In wars, others fight for survival
yet he fights for death.

00:14:29.140 --> 00:14:30.740
You're so ruthless.

00:14:30.910 --> 00:14:32.860
Why are you so cruel to him?

00:14:36.310 --> 00:14:37.310
Fortunately,

00:14:38.430 --> 00:14:39.740
Zisheng has me.

00:14:40.430 --> 00:14:41.590
I love him,

00:14:41.790 --> 00:14:42.790
respect him.

00:14:43.100 --> 00:14:44.860
No matter what he does to me,

00:14:44.980 --> 00:14:46.220
I'll never blame him.

00:14:47.340 --> 00:14:48.910
I can accept his good

00:14:49.220 --> 00:14:50.790
and his bad.

00:14:53.500 --> 00:14:54.310
I'm different from you,

00:14:54.310 --> 00:14:56.620
a woman
who cancels her engagement at will.

00:14:57.550 --> 00:14:58.950
I lived a chaste life

00:14:59.460 --> 00:15:00.860
and loved only one person.

00:15:00.860 --> 00:15:02.030
Lady Luo.

00:15:02.950 --> 00:15:04.500
If it weren't for Empress Xuan,

00:15:04.860 --> 00:15:06.590
I wouldn't come here with you.

00:15:07.830 --> 00:15:08.590
Stop the carriage.

00:15:09.710 --> 00:15:10.620
Cheng Shaoshang.

00:15:10.950 --> 00:15:13.310
Because of you,
Huo Buyi cut off all ties with me.

00:15:13.460 --> 00:15:15.260
I have nowhere to go now.

00:15:15.430 --> 00:15:17.710
Every woman in town is making fun of me.

00:15:18.260 --> 00:15:20.220
How could I let you off the carriage?

00:15:21.260 --> 00:15:23.430
Let me go.

00:15:25.620 --> 00:15:26.740
Do you know?

00:15:26.860 --> 00:15:28.030
The military physician said

00:15:28.030 --> 00:15:28.860
Zisheng refused to

00:15:28.860 --> 00:15:30.430
have the tooth mark on his arm treated.

00:15:30.740 --> 00:15:32.670
He even used medicine
to worsen the tooth mark

00:15:32.670 --> 00:15:33.980
because of you.

00:15:34.260 --> 00:15:36.260
I've been fooled by the two of you.

00:15:36.260 --> 00:15:37.860
You're fooling yourself.

00:15:38.910 --> 00:15:39.860
Let go.

00:15:43.190 --> 00:15:45.500
He doesn't care about any other ladies.

00:15:45.710 --> 00:15:47.460
Why are you so special?

00:15:47.860 --> 00:15:49.430
I came to the palace before you.

00:15:49.590 --> 00:15:51.310
I'm smarter and more virtuous than you.

00:15:51.310 --> 00:15:52.340
Why

00:15:52.550 --> 00:15:54.860
does Huo Buyi only have eyes for you?

00:15:55.380 --> 00:15:57.070
You deserve to die.

00:15:57.340 --> 00:15:58.340
Luo Jitong.

00:15:59.430 --> 00:16:00.830
Even if you kill me,

00:16:01.500 --> 00:16:02.310
you can't have him.

00:16:02.310 --> 00:16:03.460
So what?

00:16:04.380 --> 00:16:05.380
For him

00:16:05.590 --> 00:16:06.980
I dare to do anything.

00:16:08.100 --> 00:16:10.220
I even could kill my husband.

00:16:10.830 --> 00:16:12.670
But he still doesn't love me.

00:16:13.190 --> 00:16:14.790
As long as I've killed you,

00:16:15.100 --> 00:16:16.950
he'll remember me forever,

00:16:17.590 --> 00:16:19.790
even if it's out of hatred.

00:16:58.860 --> 00:16:59.790
Stop the carriage.

00:17:02.710 --> 00:17:03.550
Shaoshang.

00:17:07.220 --> 00:17:08.380
Stop the carriage.

00:17:09.380 --> 00:17:10.260
Zisheng.

00:17:10.550 --> 00:17:11.710
If you dare stop the carriage,

00:17:11.710 --> 00:17:13.070
I'll kill her right now.

00:17:13.830 --> 00:17:14.670
Luo Jitong.

00:17:15.030 --> 00:17:16.030
Let her go.

00:17:16.030 --> 00:17:17.220
We can discuss this.

00:17:17.220 --> 00:17:18.430
Discuss?

00:17:19.260 --> 00:17:20.790
I begged you so hard yesterday,

00:17:20.790 --> 00:17:22.340
yet you weren't moved at all.

00:17:22.340 --> 00:17:23.830
Now you're afraid.

00:17:24.070 --> 00:17:26.550
What if I let her go,

00:17:26.710 --> 00:17:28.980
but you'll have to marry me.
Is that a deal?

00:17:32.550 --> 00:17:33.710
Let her go first.

00:17:33.710 --> 00:17:35.030
I'll do anything.

00:17:36.220 --> 00:17:37.500
Stop lying to me.

00:17:37.500 --> 00:17:38.670
Do you think I don't know?

00:17:38.670 --> 00:17:39.790
Other than Cheng Shaoshang,

00:17:40.030 --> 00:17:41.590
you won't marry anyone else.

00:17:41.590 --> 00:17:42.710
If that's the case,

00:17:42.710 --> 00:17:44.590
why should I live?

00:17:44.590 --> 00:17:46.220
I want to die with her.

00:19:02.990 --> 00:19:04.340
Hold on, Shaoshang.

00:19:08.830 --> 00:19:09.900
Let go.

00:19:10.100 --> 00:19:11.660
You're capable to get up.

00:19:11.860 --> 00:19:12.860
If you don't let go,

00:19:12.860 --> 00:19:14.420
we'll both die here.

00:19:21.100 --> 00:19:22.420
Let go.

00:19:27.750 --> 00:19:28.990
I'll only let go

00:19:30.070 --> 00:19:31.380
when I die.

00:19:45.510 --> 00:19:46.510
Huo Buyi.

00:19:48.550 --> 00:19:49.990
Even if you die for me,

00:19:50.470 --> 00:19:51.900
I won't forgive you.

00:19:52.100 --> 00:19:52.990
Let go now.

00:19:52.990 --> 00:19:55.030
I won't live without you.

00:20:01.990 --> 00:20:02.940
I know

00:20:03.990 --> 00:20:05.620
that I did many wrong things.

00:20:07.900 --> 00:20:08.860
Therefore,

00:20:10.030 --> 00:20:10.900
you live,

00:20:12.230 --> 00:20:13.100
I live,

00:20:14.660 --> 00:20:15.660
you die,

00:20:17.790 --> 00:20:19.030
I die.

00:20:45.310 --> 00:20:46.620
Young Master, we're here.

00:20:46.620 --> 00:20:47.550
Hang in there.

00:20:48.790 --> 00:20:49.990
Shaoshang, catch the rope.

00:21:01.590 --> 00:21:02.700
Your injury...

00:21:09.230 --> 00:21:09.940
It's okay.

00:21:11.470 --> 00:21:13.270
I'll just have the physician bandage it.

00:21:16.940 --> 00:21:17.940
Lady Cheng.

00:21:21.420 --> 00:21:23.030
Let me send you back to your palace.

00:21:24.310 --> 00:21:25.310
No need.

00:21:26.900 --> 00:21:28.420
I can go back myself.

00:21:33.900 --> 00:21:35.270
Let Qi send you back then.

00:21:36.900 --> 00:21:38.070
Take my carriage.

00:21:47.860 --> 00:21:49.270
I shall leave first.

00:22:28.140 --> 00:22:29.100
Report.

00:22:29.420 --> 00:22:30.940
General Huo, Lady Cheng.

00:22:30.940 --> 00:22:32.380
His Majesty calls you
to return to the palace now.

00:22:32.380 --> 00:22:33.380
Empress Xuan...

00:22:33.590 --> 00:22:34.940
Empress Xuan is dying.

00:23:19.360 --> 00:23:20.400
Shen'an.

00:23:21.600 --> 00:23:23.440
Is there anything else

00:23:24.120 --> 00:23:25.360
on your mind?

00:23:26.770 --> 00:23:27.810
Tell me.

00:23:28.770 --> 00:23:29.640
I...

00:23:31.250 --> 00:23:33.200
I'll have them done for you.

00:23:43.120 --> 00:23:44.970
I've lived my entire life

00:23:45.840 --> 00:23:48.290
for people around me.

00:23:48.840 --> 00:23:52.200
It would be pointless
to still be talking

00:23:53.120 --> 00:23:55.400
for others right now.

00:23:58.920 --> 00:24:01.090
I've been by Your Majesty's side

00:24:01.600 --> 00:24:03.490
for decades.

00:24:04.160 --> 00:24:06.050
I know that in Your Majesty's heart,

00:24:07.250 --> 00:24:10.640
Your Majesty is
still an upright young man

00:24:11.400 --> 00:24:13.570
who loves to read.

00:24:14.730 --> 00:24:17.200
If it weren't for the chaotic world

00:24:17.440 --> 00:24:19.920
and ruthless Emperor Li,

00:24:20.440 --> 00:24:24.810
Your Majesty would rather stay
in the quiet countryside forever,

00:24:25.570 --> 00:24:28.920
marry Yueheng,

00:24:29.920 --> 00:24:31.920
and have a few children.

00:24:32.160 --> 00:24:35.840
Your Majesty would work
as the sun rises, rest as the sun sets.

00:24:37.200 --> 00:24:40.330
Living a simple life.

00:24:44.360 --> 00:24:45.330
Shen'an.

00:24:48.640 --> 00:24:50.200
It's me.

00:24:53.050 --> 00:24:54.050
I've held up

00:24:57.160 --> 00:24:58.440
your entire life.

00:24:59.200 --> 00:25:00.400
Your Majesty

00:25:01.440 --> 00:25:03.440
has never owed me anything.

00:25:04.250 --> 00:25:07.600
I didn't dare to reject
the marriage arranged by Uncle.

00:25:07.770 --> 00:25:09.090
To be able to meet you

00:25:10.770 --> 00:25:12.570
is

00:25:13.400 --> 00:25:15.640
my biggest fortune.

00:25:34.360 --> 00:25:35.490
Your Majesty

00:25:37.160 --> 00:25:41.290
has sacrificed so much for world peace.

00:25:42.250 --> 00:25:45.290
Heng is also the same.

00:25:45.730 --> 00:25:48.880
Just because she's rude, straightforward

00:25:49.570 --> 00:25:51.050
and casual,

00:25:51.920 --> 00:25:53.810
Your Majesty thinks

00:25:54.490 --> 00:25:56.970
that she doesn't
take things to her heart

00:25:57.640 --> 00:26:00.090
and doesn't feel sorrow.

00:26:01.090 --> 00:26:02.400
I know

00:26:03.200 --> 00:26:05.160
that she has wept

00:26:05.880 --> 00:26:08.840
more than I did.

00:26:14.880 --> 00:26:17.120
From now on,

00:26:17.880 --> 00:26:21.570
Your Majesty and Heng

00:26:22.360 --> 00:26:23.810
should stay well together.

00:26:25.050 --> 00:26:26.400
Just like

00:26:27.640 --> 00:26:30.880
how close you were
when you were in the countryside.

00:26:33.090 --> 00:26:34.570
As if I

00:26:36.440 --> 00:26:38.530
had never been here.

00:26:47.440 --> 00:26:48.400
Her Majesty.

00:26:51.600 --> 00:26:52.810
Your Majesty.

00:26:54.640 --> 00:26:56.920
Please allow me to speak

00:26:57.530 --> 00:26:59.050
to Heng.

00:27:00.680 --> 00:27:01.490
Okay.

00:27:16.250 --> 00:27:17.200
Her Majesty,

00:27:19.880 --> 00:27:22.050
as long as I'm around,

00:27:25.090 --> 00:27:27.250
I'll make sure that
Xuan Family will be well.

00:27:30.200 --> 00:27:32.200
I'm not counting on you.

00:27:33.440 --> 00:27:35.160
The Crown Prince is here.

00:27:36.400 --> 00:27:38.250
He's steady and capable.

00:27:39.360 --> 00:27:41.440
I'm not worried.

00:27:45.600 --> 00:27:46.920
Right now,

00:27:47.770 --> 00:27:49.680
I want to talk about us.

00:27:54.160 --> 00:27:57.600
I didn't suspect that you were the one

00:27:59.090 --> 00:28:01.920
who assassinated my son
when he was nineteen.

00:28:04.050 --> 00:28:05.120
I know.

00:28:07.290 --> 00:28:08.360
That year

00:28:10.330 --> 00:28:12.360
when my boy died at four months of age,

00:28:13.770 --> 00:28:15.770
I didn't suspect you either.

00:28:16.680 --> 00:28:17.770
I know.

00:28:19.120 --> 00:28:21.640
You never suspected me,

00:28:23.250 --> 00:28:26.400
that's why you ignored the rumors

00:28:27.730 --> 00:28:30.600
and dared to accept these children.

00:28:43.570 --> 00:28:44.530
Her Majesty.

00:28:46.570 --> 00:28:48.050
In my heart,

00:28:50.770 --> 00:28:52.010
we're just like

00:28:52.530 --> 00:28:54.360
biological sisters.

00:28:55.880 --> 00:28:57.530
If we were

00:28:58.290 --> 00:29:01.840
siblings of a normal family,

00:29:03.160 --> 00:29:04.810
that would be great.

00:29:16.640 --> 00:29:19.440
Let the children in.

00:29:23.400 --> 00:29:24.570
Come in.

00:29:35.440 --> 00:29:37.600
Slow down.

00:29:47.920 --> 00:29:48.920
Your Majesty.

00:29:50.810 --> 00:29:52.440
My body

00:29:54.010 --> 00:29:56.640
must be buried
in the Imperial Mausoleum.

00:29:58.330 --> 00:30:00.400
May I give

00:30:01.530 --> 00:30:03.570
a bunch of my hair

00:30:04.440 --> 00:30:06.880
to Shaoshang so she can burn it to ash

00:30:08.010 --> 00:30:10.360
and bring it back to the mountain

00:30:11.440 --> 00:30:14.440
where my father and I
used to live in seclusion?

00:30:18.840 --> 00:30:20.050
As you wish.

00:30:21.050 --> 00:30:22.770
We will do as you wish.

00:30:29.530 --> 00:30:30.640
Son.

00:30:33.400 --> 00:30:36.440
You've always been indecisive.

00:30:37.160 --> 00:30:39.570
So what if you have glory?

00:30:40.600 --> 00:30:43.090
You have to be more broad-minded

00:30:43.920 --> 00:30:46.530
to live a longer life.

00:30:47.840 --> 00:30:49.290
Madam Zhai

00:30:50.290 --> 00:30:52.640
shall count on your care now.

00:30:53.810 --> 00:30:55.090
I will

00:30:55.490 --> 00:30:57.250
take good care of Madam Zhai.

00:30:58.120 --> 00:30:59.400
Hang in there, Mother.

00:31:00.330 --> 00:31:03.330
I want to take care of you
in your old age.

00:31:03.730 --> 00:31:06.200
I can no longer live any older.

00:31:06.920 --> 00:31:07.920
Mother.

00:31:08.680 --> 00:31:09.770
I'm wrong.

00:31:10.290 --> 00:31:11.440
I'm wrong.

00:31:12.050 --> 00:31:14.920
I'm willing to use my life
to exchange yours.

00:31:15.600 --> 00:31:17.770
If you're really filial,

00:31:19.050 --> 00:31:21.770
don't use your life to exchange mine,

00:31:22.770 --> 00:31:24.440
but live well

00:31:25.400 --> 00:31:28.090
and cherish your life.

00:31:28.090 --> 00:31:30.400
Don't disparage yourself.

00:31:35.330 --> 00:31:36.530
Zisheng.

00:31:45.010 --> 00:31:46.050
Her Majesty.

00:31:49.880 --> 00:31:51.530
I'm sorry.

00:31:53.530 --> 00:31:56.400
I've never blamed you.

00:31:57.490 --> 00:32:00.090
I know that all these while

00:32:00.400 --> 00:32:02.880
you've been living in hardship.

00:32:03.880 --> 00:32:06.010
You don't owe us anything.

00:32:06.600 --> 00:32:08.010
I know

00:32:08.840 --> 00:32:11.770
that you've been feeling guilty.

00:32:13.010 --> 00:32:14.770
When I'm gone,

00:32:15.880 --> 00:32:17.880
let the past

00:32:18.360 --> 00:32:20.640
be gone with the wind.

00:32:21.490 --> 00:32:22.600
You

00:32:22.880 --> 00:32:25.400
should forgive yourself too.

00:32:31.570 --> 00:32:33.050
Shaoshang.

00:32:34.640 --> 00:32:35.640
Come here.

00:32:44.600 --> 00:32:45.840
Shaoshang.

00:32:47.400 --> 00:32:49.360
I've encumbered you

00:32:50.290 --> 00:32:52.730
for five years.

00:32:53.770 --> 00:32:55.330
What encumber?

00:32:57.730 --> 00:32:59.840
I'm willing to follow Her Majesty

00:33:01.400 --> 00:33:02.400
for five years

00:33:03.570 --> 00:33:04.640
or even ten.

00:33:05.400 --> 00:33:07.090
Silly girl.

00:33:07.680 --> 00:33:12.400
One doesn't have so much time in life.

00:33:13.090 --> 00:33:16.880
You've missed a lot because of me.

00:33:17.730 --> 00:33:19.090
I hope that

00:33:19.920 --> 00:33:21.970
in the future

00:33:22.810 --> 00:33:25.810
you can live well for yourself.

00:33:28.050 --> 00:33:29.600
I don't wish that

00:33:30.250 --> 00:33:33.530
you'll waste your life as I did.

00:33:35.600 --> 00:33:37.250
As a mother,

00:33:38.440 --> 00:33:41.160
I hope you two

00:33:41.840 --> 00:33:44.360
can pick up from where you left off.

00:33:45.200 --> 00:33:49.570
But as a sensible elder,

00:33:50.250 --> 00:33:51.490
I know that

00:33:52.090 --> 00:33:55.290
a marriage can't be forced.

00:33:56.770 --> 00:33:58.770
I can only advise you

00:33:59.360 --> 00:34:02.680
to follow your heart.

00:34:04.810 --> 00:34:09.010
Cherish the present. Don't regret it.

00:34:18.200 --> 00:34:19.880
I hope that

00:34:21.840 --> 00:34:25.250
the world will
have peace in my next life,

00:34:26.120 --> 00:34:30.360
so I can be free from suffering.

00:34:31.160 --> 00:34:32.770
I hope that

00:34:33.810 --> 00:34:36.880
my parents will
live long and healthy in my next life,

00:34:38.640 --> 00:34:42.200
so I can be free from sorrow.

00:34:43.640 --> 00:34:45.120
I hope that in my next life

00:34:47.010 --> 00:34:49.250
I can have the gift of youth

00:34:50.680 --> 00:34:53.290
and sing in the mountains.

00:34:58.010 --> 00:34:59.360
Dear,

00:35:01.680 --> 00:35:03.920
I'm fortunate in this life

00:35:05.570 --> 00:35:08.490
to be able to marry you.

00:35:11.330 --> 00:35:13.240
I hope in my next life,

00:35:15.050 --> 00:35:16.450
you and I

00:35:18.200 --> 00:35:19.320
will

00:35:19.890 --> 00:35:21.010
never

00:35:22.320 --> 00:35:23.490
meet again.

00:39:01.870 --> 00:39:02.870
General Huo.

00:39:03.740 --> 00:39:04.870
Let's talk.

00:39:08.780 --> 00:39:09.590
Okay.

00:39:27.140 --> 00:39:28.780
What happened?

00:39:33.390 --> 00:39:34.870
Emperor Xuan passed away.

00:39:39.550 --> 00:39:40.590
Don't worry.

00:39:41.300 --> 00:39:42.950
I'm just here to send Shaoshang back.

00:39:43.950 --> 00:39:44.990
I'll leave soon.

00:39:45.470 --> 00:39:46.590
I won't disturb you.

00:39:47.260 --> 00:39:48.470
Huo Buyi, stand right there.

00:39:52.350 --> 00:39:53.260
General Huo.

00:39:54.030 --> 00:39:56.470
What kind of place do you think
Marquis Quling's Residence is?

00:39:57.030 --> 00:39:58.780
And who do you think Niaoniao is?

00:39:59.260 --> 00:40:01.220
You come and go at will.

00:40:03.820 --> 00:40:04.950
Just like that year,

00:40:05.070 --> 00:40:06.510
you were about to marry her,

00:40:06.510 --> 00:40:07.820
yet you abandoned her.

00:40:08.350 --> 00:40:09.430
Five years ago,

00:40:10.100 --> 00:40:11.350
you abandoned Niaoniao.

00:40:11.350 --> 00:40:13.550
She was sick and dying.

00:40:14.870 --> 00:40:17.220
Have a look at the backyard.

00:40:17.220 --> 00:40:18.100
The half-done coffin

00:40:18.100 --> 00:40:20.390
we made for her is still there.

00:40:26.510 --> 00:40:28.390
I know I've done Shaoshang wrong.

00:40:28.660 --> 00:40:29.910
I also know that

00:40:29.910 --> 00:40:31.620
you care about Shaoshang.

00:40:32.300 --> 00:40:33.220
Therefore,

00:40:35.910 --> 00:40:37.300
I've decided never to disturb you again.

00:40:42.590 --> 00:40:44.070
Do you know

00:40:44.590 --> 00:40:46.430
how Niaoniao has lived
for the past five years?

00:40:47.820 --> 00:40:49.780
She was a person
who loved crowds and fun.

00:40:50.660 --> 00:40:53.660
Yet she locked herself up
in Changqiu Palace for five years.

00:40:57.180 --> 00:40:58.700
When I was horribly sick,

00:40:59.950 --> 00:41:01.550
when his brother got married,

00:41:02.260 --> 00:41:03.870
when her cousin got married,

00:41:05.470 --> 00:41:08.300
we hoped to see her.

00:41:09.950 --> 00:41:11.260
But she's not

00:41:11.260 --> 00:41:12.740
left Changqiu Palace.

00:41:14.220 --> 00:41:15.910
She lost five years.

00:41:16.350 --> 00:41:19.070
Our family also lost
our daughter for five years.

00:41:23.510 --> 00:41:25.100
Do you know

00:41:26.350 --> 00:41:27.870
who she did that for?

00:41:30.620 --> 00:41:32.030
For you.

00:41:33.430 --> 00:41:34.780
Huo Buyi.

00:41:43.260 --> 00:41:44.470
It's my fault.

00:41:45.990 --> 00:41:47.350
I've failed

00:41:47.350 --> 00:41:48.950
Shaoshang's love for me.

00:41:50.550 --> 00:41:52.780
I've failed Cheng Family's trust in me.

00:42:01.820 --> 00:42:03.100
I've wronged Shaoshang.

00:42:04.180 --> 00:42:05.700
I've also wronged Cheng Family.

00:42:06.620 --> 00:42:07.870
What I owe you

00:42:08.780 --> 00:42:10.990
can't be repaid
even with my entire life.

00:42:12.180 --> 00:42:14.350
Let alone Shaoshang's forgiveness,

00:42:17.620 --> 00:42:19.180
even I

00:42:21.550 --> 00:42:23.550
can't forgive myself.

00:42:24.740 --> 00:42:26.070
When I was in the Northwest,

00:42:28.030 --> 00:42:30.180
I fought day and night

00:42:32.070 --> 00:42:33.740
in hope that my chest
would be pierced by a sword

00:42:33.740 --> 00:42:35.350
so I could die on the battlefield.

00:42:38.100 --> 00:42:40.070
But I dared not to die.

00:42:43.470 --> 00:42:45.700
I haven't been able
to make her let go of her resentment.

00:42:50.910 --> 00:42:53.220
How could I just die?

00:42:55.820 --> 00:42:56.870
General Huo.

00:42:59.180 --> 00:43:00.910
We're not asking you to plead guilty.

00:43:01.430 --> 00:43:02.820
What we said just now

00:43:03.300 --> 00:43:05.350
wasn't so that you feel guilty.

00:43:06.180 --> 00:43:08.100
We're Niaoniao's parents,

00:43:08.660 --> 00:43:10.910
yet we didn't give her enough love
when she was young.

00:43:12.300 --> 00:43:14.030
We also regret it now.

00:43:14.910 --> 00:43:17.350
No matter what Niaoniao chooses,

00:43:18.140 --> 00:43:19.470
who she wants to marry,

00:43:20.950 --> 00:43:22.070
right now

00:43:23.260 --> 00:43:24.740
we let her make her own choice.

00:43:25.590 --> 00:43:26.950
The two of you

00:43:27.870 --> 00:43:29.100
love each other.

00:43:31.390 --> 00:43:33.260
However, fate has other plans.

00:43:39.740 --> 00:43:42.100
Whether you two can be together again,

00:43:43.180 --> 00:43:44.260
we shall

00:43:45.620 --> 00:43:46.910
let the future decide.

00:43:57.910 --> 00:43:59.070
(Special reminder: The cliff-falling
animal action scenes)

00:43:59.070 --> 00:44:04.910
