00:01:23.220 --> 00:01:28.700
= Love Like The Galaxy=

00:01:30.020 --> 00:01:32.900
=Episode 24=

00:01:36.820 --> 00:01:37.900
You are lucky.

00:01:38.210 --> 00:01:39.380
I won't forgive you

00:01:39.770 --> 00:01:41.170
if there is no imperial banquet later.

00:01:42.250 --> 00:01:44.420
You better be careful
during the banquet.

00:01:44.420 --> 00:01:46.060
Don't let me catch you
doing anything funny.

00:01:46.540 --> 00:01:47.340
Otherwise,

00:01:47.770 --> 00:01:49.170
I want the whole Cheng Family

00:01:49.340 --> 00:01:50.690
to apologise.

00:02:10.060 --> 00:02:11.820
Thank you for coming to my aid.

00:02:12.570 --> 00:02:14.460
It was really scary

00:02:14.770 --> 00:02:15.770
when nobles got angry.

00:02:16.460 --> 00:02:17.460
I am Luo Jitong.

00:02:17.820 --> 00:02:19.820
My father is Luo Zhu, Colonel Changshui.

00:02:20.540 --> 00:02:23.210
I was appointed as Fifth Princess' reading partner
by  Empress a few years ago.

00:02:23.980 --> 00:02:26.500
Shaoshang, you can just call me Jitong.

00:02:26.610 --> 00:02:28.170
Sure. Jitong.

00:02:29.020 --> 00:02:31.690
His Majesty and Her Majesty
are both kind and friendly.

00:02:32.210 --> 00:02:34.540
Why is Fifth Princess so bossy?

00:02:35.020 --> 00:02:36.340
She is His Majesty's youngest daughter.

00:02:36.500 --> 00:02:37.980
She was born when the land is peaceful.

00:02:38.430 --> 00:02:41.110
Thank you for your reminder, Jitong.

00:02:47.470 --> 00:02:48.760
Lady Cheng, follow me.

00:03:00.760 --> 00:03:02.870
Lady Cheng, you may sit here.

00:03:03.040 --> 00:03:03.790
Thank you.

00:03:18.830 --> 00:03:21.270
Anyone can
attend the imperial banquet nowadays.

00:03:21.870 --> 00:03:22.790
In the palace,

00:03:22.870 --> 00:03:25.390
everyone is seated
according to the status.

00:03:25.640 --> 00:03:27.430
Shaoshang has a low status

00:03:27.720 --> 00:03:29.390
so you have to sit at the end naturally.

00:03:38.680 --> 00:03:39.680
If I'm not here,

00:03:39.910 --> 00:03:41.310
this seat will be yours.

00:03:41.830 --> 00:03:43.950
How can you talk about me
in your current situation?

00:03:44.080 --> 00:03:45.390
How dare you laugh at me?

00:03:46.310 --> 00:03:47.520
It's so noisy.

00:03:47.990 --> 00:03:50.760
Why are people
from the Changqiu Palace so rude?

00:03:51.120 --> 00:03:52.870
As the niece of the Empress,

00:03:52.870 --> 00:03:54.830
aren't you afraid of
embarrassing your aunt?

00:03:55.040 --> 00:03:56.430
Consort Yue taught all of you

00:03:56.430 --> 00:03:58.720
that the people of Yongle Palace
need to follow the rules.

00:03:59.870 --> 00:04:00.560
Why didn't you

00:04:00.560 --> 00:04:02.830
bring Prince Consort Xuan today?
[*Prince Consort Xuan: Third Princess' husband]

00:04:03.720 --> 00:04:06.600
Did Third Sister argue
with Prince Consort Xuan again?

00:04:07.350 --> 00:04:09.310
Or did you keep Prince Consort Xuan

00:04:09.470 --> 00:04:11.830
back at the residence
because Zisheng will be here today?

00:04:11.830 --> 00:04:12.720
Fifth Sister.

00:04:13.040 --> 00:04:15.600
Instead of worrying
about other people's family affairs,

00:04:15.910 --> 00:04:16.910
you should think about

00:04:16.910 --> 00:04:19.240
your house's reputation.

00:04:20.080 --> 00:04:22.200
If you don't chase all those toyboys away,

00:04:22.520 --> 00:04:24.080
I'm afraid the whole capital

00:04:24.080 --> 00:04:25.870
will find out about it in a few days.

00:04:25.950 --> 00:04:26.720
You...

00:04:26.870 --> 00:04:28.200
Today is the family banquet,

00:04:28.200 --> 00:04:29.470
stop arguing.

00:04:29.470 --> 00:04:30.680
No one will die from that.

00:04:31.680 --> 00:04:32.990
If you can't suppress your urge,

00:04:33.200 --> 00:04:34.790
you can say what you just said

00:04:34.870 --> 00:04:36.120
to Father and Mother

00:04:36.120 --> 00:04:37.310
when they are here later.

00:04:37.790 --> 00:04:39.240
See if you will get embarrassed.

00:04:49.910 --> 00:04:50.870
I'm talking to you.

00:04:51.950 --> 00:04:53.950
You were the one who was arguing with me

00:04:54.390 --> 00:04:55.240
at Changqiu Palace, right?

00:04:58.790 --> 00:05:00.240
The banquet hasn't begun,

00:05:00.240 --> 00:05:02.160
and Father and Mother haven't come here,

00:05:02.160 --> 00:05:03.560
you already started eating.

00:05:03.560 --> 00:05:05.310
How can you be so rude?

00:05:06.600 --> 00:05:08.200
I'm sure you don't know, Your Highness.

00:05:08.350 --> 00:05:10.830
Her father fought in battles in the past

00:05:10.830 --> 00:05:13.310
and left her at home
with no one to teach her.

00:05:13.640 --> 00:05:14.720
She can be considered

00:05:15.040 --> 00:05:16.680
as an uneducated child from the rural area.

00:05:17.870 --> 00:05:19.390
It is her first time in the palace

00:05:19.560 --> 00:05:21.390
so it's natural for her
to not know the palace's rules

00:05:21.520 --> 00:05:23.120
and come here to see His Majesty
with an empty stomach.

00:05:25.080 --> 00:05:27.520
No wonder she's acting impolitely.

00:05:27.950 --> 00:05:29.910
She was lack of teaching from parents.

00:05:30.470 --> 00:05:32.830
How dare you eat a biscuit
before the imperial banquet starts.

00:05:37.160 --> 00:05:38.160
This is not a biscuit.

00:05:39.120 --> 00:05:41.390
Are you trying to fool me? Do you think
I can't recognise a biscuit?

00:05:42.720 --> 00:05:44.120
This is not a biscuit.

00:05:44.790 --> 00:05:45.910
This is a millet naan.

00:05:46.080 --> 00:05:47.430
Every family in the rural areas

00:05:47.430 --> 00:05:48.870
eat this during meals.

00:05:48.990 --> 00:05:51.390
Eating a naan can
keep your stomach full for six hours.

00:05:51.680 --> 00:05:53.470
Don't you know that, Your Highness?

00:05:54.390 --> 00:05:56.040
I heard from my parents

00:05:56.200 --> 00:05:58.200
that His Majesty
and Her Majesty are frugal.

00:05:59.040 --> 00:06:00.680
How could you
not know about this, Your Highness?

00:06:01.640 --> 00:06:02.470
That's reasonable.

00:06:02.640 --> 00:06:04.520
Your Highness is
a proud daughter of the royal family.

00:06:04.640 --> 00:06:06.560
You are always in the palace

00:06:06.680 --> 00:06:08.600
so you haven't
seen many things naturally.

00:06:08.600 --> 00:06:09.310
You...

00:06:14.040 --> 00:06:14.870
I'm not feeling well.

00:06:15.120 --> 00:06:16.560
I'm going to the bathroom.

00:06:44.600 --> 00:06:46.640
Lady Cheng, you have a silver tongue.

00:06:47.040 --> 00:06:48.040
Now, show me

00:06:48.120 --> 00:06:49.560
your footsteps.

00:07:01.080 --> 00:07:03.440
Someone is really impolite.

00:07:03.440 --> 00:07:06.160
She hops in a ridiculous manner.

00:08:13.720 --> 00:08:14.800
What are you trying to do?

00:08:19.550 --> 00:08:20.630
I'm wondering who it is.

00:08:21.000 --> 00:08:23.040
Turns out it's Lady Cheng's saviour.

00:08:29.880 --> 00:08:30.720
General Ling, I can...

00:08:30.720 --> 00:08:31.550
Allow me.

00:09:10.800 --> 00:09:13.000
Ling Zisheng,
what is the meaning of this?

00:09:16.190 --> 00:09:17.390
I heard His Majesty

00:09:17.760 --> 00:09:19.880
already found Prince Consort Yue
for Fifth Princess.

00:09:20.310 --> 00:09:21.800
He is a dissolute man

00:09:22.080 --> 00:09:23.760
and a rare kind nowadays.

00:09:23.880 --> 00:09:25.590
He is a good match for you.

00:09:26.000 --> 00:09:26.960
I will

00:09:27.310 --> 00:09:28.760
congratulate you in advance.

00:09:28.920 --> 00:09:29.720
You...

00:09:29.880 --> 00:09:31.080
How dare you laugh at me?

00:09:31.310 --> 00:09:32.190
Zisheng.

00:09:33.510 --> 00:09:35.760
When Third Princess
married the heir of Marquis Xuan,

00:09:35.760 --> 00:09:37.120
I was out in battle

00:09:37.310 --> 00:09:38.630
and couldn't congratulate you.

00:09:39.550 --> 00:09:40.390
This is

00:09:41.040 --> 00:09:42.880
a late congratulation from me.

00:09:49.800 --> 00:09:50.550
Let's go.

00:09:50.550 --> 00:09:51.270
Wait.

00:10:13.840 --> 00:10:15.310
Such a cheap woman.

00:10:23.800 --> 00:10:24.720
Lady Luo.

00:10:25.190 --> 00:10:26.390
Lady Cheng

00:10:26.550 --> 00:10:29.040
seems close to General Ling.

00:10:31.190 --> 00:10:32.630
We should mind our business

00:10:33.390 --> 00:10:34.630
and not gossip about others.

00:10:35.800 --> 00:10:38.040
Prepare the liquor and serve it.

00:10:38.310 --> 00:10:39.160
But didn't

00:10:39.390 --> 00:10:41.080
Her Majesty talked about marrying you

00:10:41.080 --> 00:10:42.310
to General Ling?

00:10:42.310 --> 00:10:43.680
Don't talk nonsense here.

00:10:46.680 --> 00:10:47.470
Her Majesty

00:10:48.550 --> 00:10:50.390
has never taken it seriously.

00:10:53.960 --> 00:10:55.120
If you still talk about this,

00:10:55.470 --> 00:10:56.800
I'll punish you.

00:10:57.920 --> 00:10:58.760
Yes.

00:11:15.350 --> 00:11:16.800
General Ling, what are you doing?

00:11:17.920 --> 00:11:18.960
Why aren't you letting go?

00:11:20.390 --> 00:11:22.080
It's more embarrassing for you
to refusing me here.

00:11:22.590 --> 00:11:23.760
Do you want us

00:11:24.160 --> 00:11:25.840
to become the joke of the palace?

00:11:40.160 --> 00:11:41.230
Sit here.

00:11:43.590 --> 00:11:44.960
Isn't it against the rules

00:11:45.510 --> 00:11:46.840
for me to sit here?

00:11:47.160 --> 00:11:48.000
It's fine.

00:11:48.270 --> 00:11:49.120
Sit.

00:12:03.630 --> 00:12:06.190
The palace is a place
free from rules nowadays.

00:12:06.350 --> 00:12:07.590
Even a woman

00:12:07.590 --> 00:12:09.390
can sit beside the Crown Prince.

00:12:09.630 --> 00:12:10.430
Brother.

00:12:11.230 --> 00:12:12.760
You have such a good temper.

00:12:14.040 --> 00:12:15.590
Brother, don't scare the lady.

00:12:15.880 --> 00:12:16.840
This is a family banquet.

00:12:16.920 --> 00:12:18.760
It's not strict on etiquette.

00:12:19.120 --> 00:12:19.960
Besides,

00:12:20.510 --> 00:12:22.390
Zisheng took her to this seat.

00:12:22.630 --> 00:12:24.080
Brother, you are wrong.

00:12:24.430 --> 00:12:25.590
We can see a lot from a small matter.

00:12:25.840 --> 00:12:27.270
If one treats family matters
with no orders,

00:12:27.430 --> 00:12:28.590
how can he govern the empire?

00:12:30.390 --> 00:12:33.880
(Fifth Prince)
Every man wants a nice lady.

00:12:34.310 --> 00:12:35.760
Since you sit here,

00:12:36.080 --> 00:12:37.270
you need to tell us your name.

00:12:39.550 --> 00:12:40.680
I am Cheng Shaoshang.

00:12:43.270 --> 00:12:44.390
You are Fourth Lady Cheng

00:12:44.390 --> 00:12:46.630
who broke off the engagement with Lou Yao.

00:12:48.590 --> 00:12:50.190
You are pretty.

00:12:52.390 --> 00:12:53.430
If I take you as my concubine,

00:12:53.550 --> 00:12:54.760
we will become a family.

00:12:54.960 --> 00:12:56.430
Sitting here as a family

00:12:56.510 --> 00:12:58.120
is not against the rules.

00:12:58.680 --> 00:12:59.680
Brothers,

00:13:00.160 --> 00:13:00.960
am I right?

00:13:01.310 --> 00:13:02.120
Fifth Brother,

00:13:02.550 --> 00:13:04.000
Father always scolds you

00:13:04.760 --> 00:13:06.680
because you are fickle in love.

00:13:07.270 --> 00:13:07.960
What is it?

00:13:08.230 --> 00:13:09.270
You still

00:13:09.510 --> 00:13:10.190
won't change?

00:13:13.720 --> 00:13:15.190
Fifth Prince, it's too late
to have eyes on her.

00:13:15.720 --> 00:13:17.430
Shaoshang already has an engagement.

00:13:18.680 --> 00:13:19.800
Zisheng, are you lying to me?

00:13:20.120 --> 00:13:21.350
Everyone in the capital knows

00:13:21.350 --> 00:13:23.310
that the Cheng Family and
Lou Family broke off the engagement.

00:13:23.470 --> 00:13:24.230
Yes.

00:13:25.270 --> 00:13:26.270
So,

00:13:26.840 --> 00:13:28.160
I can marry her now.

00:13:39.630 --> 00:13:41.720
General Ling, calm down.

00:13:41.920 --> 00:13:43.080
Don't spoil your marriage

00:13:43.350 --> 00:13:45.120
just to help me.

00:13:49.080 --> 00:13:51.760
I'm afraid you are spending too much time
with the Crown Prince.

00:13:52.040 --> 00:13:53.880
You are not as domineering
as you were in the past.

00:13:53.880 --> 00:13:55.230
Even a lady

00:13:55.230 --> 00:13:57.080
dares to defy your orders.

00:14:01.470 --> 00:14:02.960
His Majesty is here!

00:14:16.080 --> 00:14:18.160
What are you talking about?
All of you look so happy.

00:14:26.350 --> 00:14:28.590
This is a normal family banquet.
Spare the formalities.

00:14:36.470 --> 00:14:38.310
Niaoniao, why are you sitting here?

00:14:43.760 --> 00:14:44.470
Your Majesty.

00:14:48.270 --> 00:14:49.310
Zisheng, what are you...

00:14:52.630 --> 00:14:54.510
Please do your duty in place of my elder

00:14:56.120 --> 00:14:57.470
to propose

00:14:58.590 --> 00:14:59.430
to Fourth Lady Cheng.

00:15:11.080 --> 00:15:12.630
Wonderful!

00:15:12.800 --> 00:15:13.590
Wonderful!

00:15:14.080 --> 00:15:14.880
Wonderful!

00:15:15.080 --> 00:15:17.390
I thought this would take a long time
for it to happen.

00:15:17.550 --> 00:15:18.470
In that case,

00:15:18.590 --> 00:15:20.080
let's do it today.

00:15:20.310 --> 00:15:21.760
General Cheng. Come.

00:15:24.270 --> 00:15:25.120
General Cheng.

00:15:25.430 --> 00:15:26.760
I started raising Zisheng

00:15:26.880 --> 00:15:28.120
when he was ten.

00:15:28.270 --> 00:15:29.470
He is no different
from my biological son.

00:15:29.470 --> 00:15:31.470
Today, I'll act in place of his father

00:15:31.680 --> 00:15:33.470
to propose the marriage to you.

00:15:34.430 --> 00:15:36.680
General Cheng, what do you think?

00:15:44.230 --> 00:15:46.720
Cheng Shi. This is a good marriage.

00:15:47.350 --> 00:15:49.190
Don't just stand there.
Agree to it immediately.

00:15:51.120 --> 00:15:52.310
Of course, I...

00:15:55.590 --> 00:15:56.590
This is a good thing.

00:15:58.190 --> 00:15:59.430
It's a good thing.

00:15:59.430 --> 00:16:00.630
Naturally, I...

00:16:06.040 --> 00:16:07.120
This marriage cannot happen.

00:16:09.920 --> 00:16:11.800
Your Majesty, please retract your order.

00:16:15.880 --> 00:16:16.720
Madam Cheng.

00:16:17.230 --> 00:16:18.350
Are you not satisfied

00:16:19.080 --> 00:16:20.040
with Zisheng?

00:16:20.680 --> 00:16:22.840
My wife dares not be dissatisfied
with General Ling.

00:16:22.840 --> 00:16:24.230
General Ling is a young hero.

00:16:24.230 --> 00:16:25.510
General Ling is a young hero.

00:16:26.550 --> 00:16:27.960
It's my daughter, Shaoshang,

00:16:28.920 --> 00:16:30.160
who is not worthy of General Ling.

00:16:50.550 --> 00:16:51.510
My daughter

00:16:51.960 --> 00:16:53.190
lacked education from young

00:16:53.510 --> 00:16:54.800
and she has bad behaviours.

00:16:55.430 --> 00:16:56.720
Since my return home,

00:16:57.120 --> 00:16:59.160
she is bad at study and martial arts,

00:16:59.800 --> 00:17:01.630
She has no virtue
and always runs her mouth.

00:17:02.720 --> 00:17:04.230
I should have educated her strictly.

00:17:04.760 --> 00:17:05.630
However,

00:17:05.630 --> 00:17:07.920
she was intractable
and disrespectful of elders.

00:17:08.510 --> 00:17:11.310
How would I dare lie to Your Majesty?

00:17:12.680 --> 00:17:14.040
If Shaoshang is not my child,

00:17:14.760 --> 00:17:17.000
I won't allow a lady like her

00:17:17.630 --> 00:17:19.800
to marry into the Cheng Family.

00:17:20.230 --> 00:17:22.120
If it was other ladies
from the Cheng Family

00:17:22.720 --> 00:17:25.080
to receive Your Majesty's grace,

00:17:26.470 --> 00:17:27.390
our family

00:17:28.310 --> 00:17:29.510
will be proud of it.

00:17:30.550 --> 00:17:31.350
Your Majesty.

00:17:31.880 --> 00:17:33.760
Shaoshang is stubborn.

00:17:34.270 --> 00:17:35.310
I'm afraid

00:17:35.510 --> 00:17:37.040
she will cause a huge trouble
in the future

00:17:37.550 --> 00:17:39.680
and harm the Cheng Family

00:17:40.080 --> 00:17:42.840
if she marries General Ling.

00:17:43.840 --> 00:17:44.630
Your Majesty.

00:17:45.470 --> 00:17:46.720
This is a great marriage.

00:17:47.880 --> 00:17:49.350
Only Shaoshang

00:17:50.720 --> 00:17:51.590
is not worthy of it.

00:18:05.840 --> 00:18:06.680
General Cheng.

00:18:07.590 --> 00:18:08.470
Is Madam Cheng

00:18:09.080 --> 00:18:10.230
telling the truth?

00:18:14.760 --> 00:18:16.120
It's not my daughter's fault.

00:18:16.920 --> 00:18:18.880
When my wife and I were out in battles,

00:18:19.190 --> 00:18:20.470
we kept her at home

00:18:20.760 --> 00:18:22.160
and neglected her education.

00:18:22.760 --> 00:18:24.510
It is our fault as parents.

00:18:25.080 --> 00:18:26.550
No one would
wash their dirty linen in public.

00:18:27.350 --> 00:18:29.270
I want to spare my daughter
from embarrassment as well

00:18:29.840 --> 00:18:31.920
but she isn't qualified.

00:18:32.800 --> 00:18:33.680
General Ling.

00:18:34.080 --> 00:18:36.800
You didn't know her for a long time.

00:18:37.120 --> 00:18:38.680
She looks obedient and intelligent

00:18:39.190 --> 00:18:41.040
but she actually is cunning

00:18:41.390 --> 00:18:42.630
and reckless.

00:18:58.880 --> 00:18:59.760
Lady Cheng.

00:19:01.190 --> 00:19:02.230
Do you think

00:19:02.590 --> 00:19:05.720
you are as bad

00:19:06.230 --> 00:19:07.270
as your mother said?

00:19:15.190 --> 00:19:16.000
Your Majesty.

00:19:18.230 --> 00:19:19.270
Everything my mother said

00:19:21.590 --> 00:19:22.590
is the truth.

00:19:29.680 --> 00:19:31.030
With my behaviours,

00:19:31.350 --> 00:19:33.230
even my mother looks down on me.

00:19:33.840 --> 00:19:36.390
How can I fit to be General Ling's wife?

00:19:43.630 --> 00:19:44.470
Yes.

00:19:45.160 --> 00:19:46.190
Why don't Your Majesty

00:19:47.510 --> 00:19:48.680
withdraw your order?

00:19:50.590 --> 00:19:51.390
What did you say?

00:19:51.390 --> 00:19:52.430
What a surprise.

00:19:52.840 --> 00:19:53.800
I didn't expect

00:19:54.630 --> 00:19:56.720
someone would condemn
their own daughter as worthless

00:19:57.550 --> 00:19:59.840
so she doesn't have to marry Zisheng.

00:20:00.840 --> 00:20:02.350
As far as I know,

00:20:02.510 --> 00:20:04.080
every lady in the capital

00:20:04.080 --> 00:20:06.040
wants to marry Zisheng.

00:20:06.550 --> 00:20:07.840
But the Cheng Family

00:20:08.510 --> 00:20:10.960
would rather defy an imperial order
to not marry him.

00:20:11.680 --> 00:20:14.270
I wonder if this is
Madam Cheng's well intention

00:20:14.590 --> 00:20:17.190
or if Zisheng
causes fear in your family.

00:20:17.430 --> 00:20:18.390
Third Brother. Mind your words.

00:20:19.040 --> 00:20:20.590
This is a matter of royal family's reputation.

00:20:21.590 --> 00:20:22.510
General Cheng.

00:20:22.880 --> 00:20:24.270
Please consider your actions.

00:20:30.230 --> 00:20:31.000
Well,

00:20:31.160 --> 00:20:33.000
if she's not married to Ling Buyi,

00:20:33.270 --> 00:20:34.350
she can get married to me.

00:20:34.590 --> 00:20:36.680
Lady Cheng is a perfect match for me.

00:20:36.920 --> 00:20:38.080
She is impolite

00:20:38.230 --> 00:20:39.310
while I am unruly.

00:20:39.630 --> 00:20:41.040
We should be a couple.

00:20:41.040 --> 00:20:41.920
What are you talking about?

00:20:42.920 --> 00:20:44.040
Fool!

00:20:44.760 --> 00:20:45.840
Know your place!

00:20:51.040 --> 00:20:51.880
Cheng Shi.

00:20:54.350 --> 00:20:55.430
An emperor's words are absolute.

00:20:55.840 --> 00:20:58.000
I've shown my sincerity

00:20:58.350 --> 00:20:59.350
by making the proposal.

00:20:59.630 --> 00:21:01.120
How dare you decline it.

00:21:01.390 --> 00:21:02.120
You...

00:21:02.590 --> 00:21:04.230
You are embarrassing me!

00:21:04.760 --> 00:21:06.390
You will make your family suffer!

00:21:09.120 --> 00:21:09.880
I will

00:21:10.720 --> 00:21:13.630
allow you to consider it
before giving me a reply.

00:21:23.960 --> 00:21:26.760
I deserve death for
going against the imperial will.

00:21:29.630 --> 00:21:30.840
I'm willing to resign

00:21:31.680 --> 00:21:33.590
and leave the capital with my family

00:21:33.880 --> 00:21:35.270
so I won't disturb Your Majesty.

00:21:36.960 --> 00:21:39.310
My daughter is really not worthy
of General Ling.

00:21:39.430 --> 00:21:41.190
Your Majesty, please grant my wish.

00:21:41.360 --> 00:21:42.640
Cheng Shi, how presumptuous!

00:21:43.080 --> 00:21:45.120
Are you threatening me
with your resignation?

00:21:45.430 --> 00:21:46.270
Guards!

00:21:46.350 --> 00:21:47.080
Your Majesty!

00:21:48.590 --> 00:21:49.800
Your Majesty, calm down.

00:21:50.120 --> 00:21:52.310
General Cheng is only anxious.

00:21:52.390 --> 00:21:54.390
Give them some time to think about it.

00:21:59.920 --> 00:22:00.680
Your Majesty.

00:22:04.310 --> 00:22:05.120
Your Majesty.

00:22:09.630 --> 00:22:11.680
General Ling is good
in academics and martial arts.

00:22:12.000 --> 00:22:13.840
He contributed a lot when he was young.

00:22:14.270 --> 00:22:16.000
He is an ideal husband

00:22:16.310 --> 00:22:18.510
that every lady in the capital
wants to marry.

00:22:19.390 --> 00:22:20.680
But I know

00:22:21.270 --> 00:22:22.430
I am unworthy

00:22:23.310 --> 00:22:24.630
of General Ling.

00:22:29.270 --> 00:22:30.310
In Hua County,

00:22:31.270 --> 00:22:32.510
General Ling almost lost his arm

00:22:33.000 --> 00:22:34.040
to save me.

00:22:34.440 --> 00:22:36.560
After that, he hurt his old wounds
at Mount Tugao

00:22:36.840 --> 00:22:37.920
to save me once again.

00:22:39.350 --> 00:22:40.630
I am indebted to him.

00:22:42.160 --> 00:22:43.230
But today,

00:22:43.840 --> 00:22:45.350
his sudden proposal

00:22:46.270 --> 00:22:47.510
caught me

00:22:47.510 --> 00:22:49.230
and my family by surprise.

00:22:52.040 --> 00:22:53.040
But my mother

00:22:54.080 --> 00:22:55.120
did one thing right.

00:22:58.040 --> 00:22:59.550
She told the truth.

00:23:03.190 --> 00:23:05.350
I am rude and reckless

00:23:06.390 --> 00:23:07.470
just as my mother said.

00:23:09.080 --> 00:23:11.120
I also cause trouble normally

00:23:13.230 --> 00:23:14.590
and don't know how to
be considerate to my parents.

00:23:15.760 --> 00:23:17.470
I don't even know
how to serve my future husband.

00:23:24.680 --> 00:23:26.190
Leaving those matters aside,

00:23:27.320 --> 00:23:29.280
I have a question
for General Ling today.

00:23:31.880 --> 00:23:32.760
General Ling.

00:23:33.800 --> 00:23:35.310
The wife you get in the future

00:23:35.800 --> 00:23:37.510
will be a lot better than me.

00:23:38.550 --> 00:23:39.920
I am stubborn since young.

00:23:40.230 --> 00:23:41.270
I won't be educated

00:23:41.270 --> 00:23:42.550
and won't listen to you.

00:23:43.000 --> 00:23:43.920
Will you still

00:23:44.630 --> 00:23:45.630
marry someone like me?

00:23:52.960 --> 00:23:53.840
Of course.

00:24:00.470 --> 00:24:01.430
I never knew

00:24:02.960 --> 00:24:05.000
how wonderful I am to you.

00:24:06.590 --> 00:24:07.880
Similarly, I'm sure you don't know

00:24:09.680 --> 00:24:10.800
that in my eyes,

00:24:12.880 --> 00:24:14.000
Cheng Shaoshang

00:24:15.190 --> 00:24:17.270
is the best lady in the capital.

00:24:17.270 --> 00:24:17.920
General Ling.

00:24:17.920 --> 00:24:18.920
Madam Cheng.

00:24:22.630 --> 00:24:24.190
Don't interrupt me.

00:24:28.430 --> 00:24:29.510
Everyone says

00:24:29.920 --> 00:24:32.040
to marry a gentle and virtuous lady.

00:24:33.230 --> 00:24:34.000
Madam Cheng

00:24:34.000 --> 00:24:35.160
is fierce in battle

00:24:35.960 --> 00:24:37.550
and doesn't lose to men
on the battlefield.

00:24:38.040 --> 00:24:39.230
But off the battlefield,

00:24:40.550 --> 00:24:42.550
you are also in love with General Cheng.

00:24:43.590 --> 00:24:45.960
It's clear to see
that every couple is different

00:24:46.960 --> 00:24:49.000
and not as everyone says.

00:24:51.590 --> 00:24:52.470
Shaoshang might not be

00:24:52.470 --> 00:24:54.270
an obedient lady in everyone's eyes.

00:24:57.470 --> 00:24:58.720
But to me,

00:25:00.000 --> 00:25:01.430
she is the whole capital

00:25:02.190 --> 00:25:03.230
and the whole world's

00:25:03.880 --> 00:25:04.800
best lady.

00:25:06.120 --> 00:25:07.430
Indeed.

00:25:12.720 --> 00:25:13.880
She is pure and decisive.

00:25:14.680 --> 00:25:16.000
She dares to love and hate.

00:25:16.590 --> 00:25:17.270
She's the only one

00:25:17.270 --> 00:25:19.120
who can walk alongside me in this world.

00:25:22.800 --> 00:25:23.960
I will

00:25:27.310 --> 00:25:28.630
only marry her in my life.

00:25:32.270 --> 00:25:33.000
Good!

00:25:33.310 --> 00:25:34.190
Wonderful!

00:25:35.390 --> 00:25:36.270
Lady Cheng.

00:25:36.430 --> 00:25:37.720
Since Zisheng's intention is firm,

00:25:37.720 --> 00:25:38.470
what about you?

00:25:44.160 --> 00:25:45.190
Don't look at them.

00:25:45.680 --> 00:25:47.230
They can't make decisions for you.

00:25:47.430 --> 00:25:49.430
I will decide for you today.

00:25:49.680 --> 00:25:51.800
No matter how important being filial is,

00:25:51.800 --> 00:25:53.630
it's not as mighty as the imperial will.

00:25:54.080 --> 00:25:55.190
You can say

00:25:55.350 --> 00:25:56.350
anything you want.

00:25:57.160 --> 00:25:58.510
I want to see

00:25:58.800 --> 00:26:00.310
who dares defy me.

00:26:15.590 --> 00:26:16.430
I don't need

00:26:17.160 --> 00:26:18.430
other people to decide for me.

00:26:19.590 --> 00:26:20.630
I will decide for myself.

00:26:23.190 --> 00:26:24.120
I am

00:26:25.040 --> 00:26:26.800
willing to marry General Ling.

00:26:41.120 --> 00:26:41.840
Wonderful.

00:26:42.510 --> 00:26:43.430
Lady Cheng.

00:26:43.800 --> 00:26:44.840
You are the one

00:26:44.840 --> 00:26:46.630
who agreed to this marriage.

00:26:46.800 --> 00:26:48.000
It's a promise.

00:26:48.680 --> 00:26:51.080
If anyone dares to disagree with this,

00:26:51.470 --> 00:26:52.270
I will

00:26:53.310 --> 00:26:54.680
definitely reprimand them.

00:27:01.680 --> 00:27:02.920
Thank you for your grace, Your Majesty.

00:27:07.510 --> 00:27:08.630
Thank you for your grace, Your Majesty.

00:27:08.720 --> 00:27:09.350
Good.

00:27:15.470 --> 00:27:16.310
Cheng Shi.

00:27:16.800 --> 00:27:18.190
Thank His Majesty's grace.

00:27:18.590 --> 00:27:22.390
Thank you for your grace, Your Majesty.

00:27:27.760 --> 00:27:28.550
All right.

00:27:29.270 --> 00:27:30.590
Stand up, everyone.

00:27:31.470 --> 00:27:32.190
Guards.

00:27:33.800 --> 00:27:34.720
What's wrong?

00:27:37.000 --> 00:27:37.840
Your Majesty.

00:27:38.000 --> 00:27:40.040
Princess Yuchang

00:27:40.040 --> 00:27:43.040
probably passed out

00:27:43.510 --> 00:27:44.880
after hearing about
General Ling's engagement.

00:27:48.270 --> 00:27:49.800
Look at these ladies.

00:27:50.630 --> 00:27:51.760
It's ridiculous.

00:27:52.510 --> 00:27:54.760
She's already drunk
before the banquet begins.

00:27:55.840 --> 00:27:56.680
I should

00:27:57.230 --> 00:27:59.040
really send her to Changqiu Palace

00:27:59.040 --> 00:28:00.800
to learn some rules.

00:28:01.720 --> 00:28:02.350
Yes.

00:28:02.350 --> 00:28:03.230
Zisheng.

00:28:03.840 --> 00:28:04.840
Stand up.

00:28:05.040 --> 00:28:06.160
Stand up now.

00:28:08.470 --> 00:28:11.160
I'm happy today. Drink more.

00:28:11.590 --> 00:28:13.190
Everyone, let's drink together!

00:28:51.270 --> 00:28:52.040
Kneel!

00:29:07.720 --> 00:29:08.590
Look.

00:29:08.590 --> 00:29:10.120
Look at her!

00:29:11.350 --> 00:29:12.120
Yuanyi.

00:29:13.390 --> 00:29:14.310
Come.

00:29:18.960 --> 00:29:21.040
It was a shock today.

00:29:21.230 --> 00:29:22.350
I still can't

00:29:22.840 --> 00:29:24.630
get over it let alone her.

00:29:24.720 --> 00:29:25.920
She was shocked?

00:29:26.160 --> 00:29:27.960
She was acting mighty today.

00:29:28.270 --> 00:29:29.630
She agreed to a marriage in public

00:29:29.720 --> 00:29:31.680
with no fear of the imperial might.

00:29:32.230 --> 00:29:33.190
Before I entered the palace,

00:29:33.630 --> 00:29:35.470
Mother had taught me many rules.

00:29:36.550 --> 00:29:38.800
But defying the imperial order
is not one of them.

00:29:39.510 --> 00:29:40.310
How dare you!

00:29:45.680 --> 00:29:46.510
Niaoniao.

00:29:47.000 --> 00:29:49.230
You can't hurt your mother like this.

00:29:49.550 --> 00:29:50.390
Previously,

00:29:50.630 --> 00:29:52.230
you were the one who guaranteed

00:29:52.390 --> 00:29:54.160
that there's nothing
between you and Ling Buyi.

00:29:54.310 --> 00:29:55.960
That was why
we risked angering His Majesty

00:29:55.960 --> 00:29:58.120
to reject the marriage for you.

00:29:58.230 --> 00:29:59.880
Why did you change?

00:30:06.350 --> 00:30:07.840
I wanted to marry Yao previously.

00:30:08.800 --> 00:30:09.920
Mother was not satisfied.

00:30:10.760 --> 00:30:12.390
She always mentioned Ling Buyi to me.

00:30:13.000 --> 00:30:15.000
Ling Buyi proposed,

00:30:15.880 --> 00:30:17.230
but Mother is still not satisfied.

00:30:18.800 --> 00:30:20.920
Are you not satisfied
with the husband I choose

00:30:22.040 --> 00:30:23.430
or me?

00:30:25.160 --> 00:30:25.630
I...

00:30:25.630 --> 00:30:26.760
Enough.

00:30:28.270 --> 00:30:29.160
Niaoniao.

00:30:29.550 --> 00:30:31.920
Don't misunderstand your mother.

00:30:32.880 --> 00:30:33.800
Compared to the Lou Family,

00:30:33.800 --> 00:30:36.190
Marquis Chengyang's family

00:30:36.190 --> 00:30:37.680
is more complicated.

00:30:38.000 --> 00:30:40.920
Ling Buyi's mother, Huo Junhua

00:30:41.040 --> 00:30:42.920
was very famous

00:30:42.920 --> 00:30:44.630
as Hua Chong's younger sister.

00:30:44.830 --> 00:30:46.150
Now,

00:30:46.510 --> 00:30:47.880
look how she ended up.

00:30:48.350 --> 00:30:50.590
Why do you have to go and suffer?

00:30:50.920 --> 00:30:52.630
What happened

00:30:53.470 --> 00:30:54.800
between Ling Buyi's parents?

00:30:55.230 --> 00:30:56.630
I've never heard anyone mention it.

00:30:56.630 --> 00:30:59.270
You don't even know
what happened with his family

00:30:59.350 --> 00:31:00.550
yet you spoke of marriage?

00:31:00.960 --> 00:31:02.920
You deserve to suffer in the future.

00:31:03.550 --> 00:31:04.920
Forget it if you don't want to tell me.

00:31:05.800 --> 00:31:07.390
I'm marrying Ling Buyi

00:31:07.760 --> 00:31:09.390
and not his parents anyway.

00:31:09.920 --> 00:31:11.390
I don't really want to know

00:31:11.880 --> 00:31:13.270
about Marquis Chengyang's family.

00:31:13.270 --> 00:31:14.880
It's not that your mother
doesn't want to tell you.

00:31:15.270 --> 00:31:17.630
But this is a long story.

00:31:18.720 --> 00:31:20.310
During His Majesty's crisis,

00:31:20.630 --> 00:31:22.630
General Huo Chong

00:31:22.960 --> 00:31:24.120
used a single city

00:31:24.310 --> 00:31:26.960
to resist Emperor Li's 200,000-men army.

00:31:27.350 --> 00:31:28.390
After the city had been captured,

00:31:28.550 --> 00:31:31.680
the Huo Family died in the massacre.

00:31:32.040 --> 00:31:34.470
Madam Huo and Ling Buyi went missing.

00:31:36.880 --> 00:31:37.800
Marquis Chengyang

00:31:37.800 --> 00:31:39.350
remarried his cousin, Madam Chunyu

00:31:39.510 --> 00:31:42.270
who stayed in his house.

00:31:42.390 --> 00:31:44.920
Less than a year after they had married,

00:31:45.040 --> 00:31:47.840
Madam Huo returned with Ling Buyi.

00:31:48.040 --> 00:31:49.680
Don't the officials

00:31:50.270 --> 00:31:52.680
pity the abandoned wife and child?

00:31:53.230 --> 00:31:54.190
Why didn't they

00:31:54.390 --> 00:31:56.840
ask Marquis Chengyang
to divorce Madam Chunyu

00:31:56.840 --> 00:31:58.840
and reunite with Madam Huo?

00:32:00.080 --> 00:32:00.920
Besides,

00:32:01.160 --> 00:32:02.000
Father.

00:32:03.590 --> 00:32:05.720
The whole Huo Family
sacrificed for the empire.

00:32:05.920 --> 00:32:07.040
In terms of contributions,

00:32:07.270 --> 00:32:09.120
the He Family
cannot be compared to them.

00:32:09.590 --> 00:32:12.350
Marquis Chengyang's family
and the Lou family are different.

00:32:12.430 --> 00:32:15.960
Madam Chunyu and Lady Ruyang
had a close relationship.

00:32:15.960 --> 00:32:17.680
How could Marquis Chengyang divorce his wife?

00:32:18.080 --> 00:32:19.120
Lady Ruyang?

00:32:19.960 --> 00:32:21.960
Why does it sound so familiar?

00:32:24.590 --> 00:32:25.960
Princess Yuchang's grandmother?

00:32:38.680 --> 00:32:39.760
This is a statue

00:32:40.040 --> 00:32:43.080
I made with pure gold for you.

00:32:43.190 --> 00:32:45.920
Putting it in the house
can help ward off evil spirits.

00:32:46.120 --> 00:32:48.800
It's enough to come and visit me.

00:32:49.190 --> 00:32:52.310
There's no need to
bring expensive gifts for me every time.

00:32:52.510 --> 00:32:53.960
Any gifts

00:32:54.310 --> 00:32:57.080
are nothing in front of you.

00:32:57.550 --> 00:33:00.160
If you didn't take care of me
for all these years,

00:33:00.160 --> 00:33:02.040
I wouldn't have a foothold in the residence

00:33:02.230 --> 00:33:05.960
with Zisheng's misunderstanding of me.

00:33:06.310 --> 00:33:09.350
It's all because of
Huo Junhua's interference.

00:33:09.880 --> 00:33:12.000
She used her brother, Huo Chong's fame

00:33:12.000 --> 00:33:15.000
to order the Wen Family around.

00:33:15.920 --> 00:33:17.080
You are different.

00:33:17.470 --> 00:33:20.720
You are virtuous and caring.

00:33:21.160 --> 00:33:22.920
When I was hurt in the battle,

00:33:23.120 --> 00:33:24.960
you saved me

00:33:24.960 --> 00:33:26.760
by taking care of me without rest.

00:33:27.510 --> 00:33:30.000
I owe Junhua after all.

00:33:30.000 --> 00:33:31.350
What do you mean?

00:33:32.000 --> 00:33:34.310
Everyone thought she died.

00:33:34.470 --> 00:33:36.800
There's nothing wrong with
the Marquis Chengyang remarrying someone else.

00:33:37.590 --> 00:33:38.470
Even if she didn't die,

00:33:38.470 --> 00:33:39.840
she went missing for two years

00:33:39.840 --> 00:33:41.630
and there was chaos.

00:33:41.920 --> 00:33:44.800
Who knew if she still kept her chastity?

00:33:45.470 --> 00:33:47.840
You requested both of you
to be Marquis Chengyang's wife

00:33:47.840 --> 00:33:50.350
but Huo Junhua was not satisfied

00:33:50.510 --> 00:33:52.840
and threatened to hurt you all the time.

00:33:53.590 --> 00:33:54.920
You had a miscarriage

00:33:54.920 --> 00:33:57.190
because of that shock.

00:33:57.430 --> 00:33:59.160
You don't even have a child until now

00:33:59.550 --> 00:34:02.270
but Huo Junhua always pretends to be insane

00:34:02.270 --> 00:34:04.120
and sows discord among you and Zisheng.

00:34:05.720 --> 00:34:07.760
When Yuchang marries Zisheng,

00:34:08.080 --> 00:34:10.470
I will ask Yuchang to persuade her.

00:34:10.760 --> 00:34:12.230
Grandmother!

00:34:13.230 --> 00:34:16.270
Now I'm a joke in the capital.

00:34:16.270 --> 00:34:19.160
You need to
set things straight for me, Grandmother!

00:34:20.270 --> 00:34:21.510
Don't stop me!

00:34:22.350 --> 00:34:23.920
-I will go to Sancai Temple
-Princess.

00:34:23.920 --> 00:34:25.120
to accompany Grandfather

00:34:25.120 --> 00:34:27.880
and live the rest of my life there.

00:34:30.470 --> 00:34:32.000
-My dear.
-Grandmother.

00:34:32.230 --> 00:34:34.040
Why are you throwing a tantrum?

00:34:34.120 --> 00:34:35.120
Grandmother!

00:34:35.960 --> 00:34:39.160
Everyone in the capital
knows that I like Ling Buyi

00:34:39.470 --> 00:34:40.350
but he proposed

00:34:40.550 --> 00:34:43.160
to Fourth Lady Cheng today
in front of everyone.

00:34:44.840 --> 00:34:48.040
How am I worse than Fourth Lady Cheng?

00:34:49.160 --> 00:34:51.270
How am I worse than her

00:34:52.430 --> 00:34:54.680
and let him embarrass me?

00:34:56.840 --> 00:34:58.430
Who is Fourth Lady Cheng?

00:34:58.680 --> 00:35:00.190
How could she be compared to you?

00:35:00.670 --> 00:35:03.110
It's that Lady Cheng
who fought with Lady Wang.

00:35:03.350 --> 00:35:03.960
She also

00:35:03.960 --> 00:35:06.310
had an engagement with the Lou Family.

00:35:07.040 --> 00:35:07.880
Grandmother.

00:35:08.550 --> 00:35:10.720
Now, Zisheng wants to marry her

00:35:10.720 --> 00:35:13.590
and I became a joke in the capital.

00:35:14.960 --> 00:35:16.270
Princess, don't worry.

00:35:17.230 --> 00:35:19.590
Lady Cheng is rude.

00:35:19.680 --> 00:35:21.680
Marquis and I don't like her.

00:35:21.800 --> 00:35:23.720
This marriage will not go on.

00:35:24.230 --> 00:35:25.550
I'm going to find the Marquis

00:35:25.800 --> 00:35:28.040
and ask him to talk to Zisheng.

00:35:32.040 --> 00:35:32.920
Stand up.

00:35:33.510 --> 00:35:34.190
Come.

00:35:36.350 --> 00:35:38.160
Look how aggrieved she is.

00:35:38.160 --> 00:35:39.080
Don't cry.

00:35:39.590 --> 00:35:40.680
Don't cry.

00:35:41.080 --> 00:35:42.760
Lady Cheng?

00:35:45.430 --> 00:35:46.590
Your mother and I

00:35:46.760 --> 00:35:49.920
both think Marquis Chengyang's residence
is a very complicated place

00:35:50.270 --> 00:35:51.880
so we declined the marriage.

00:35:52.630 --> 00:35:53.390
Niaoniao.

00:35:53.590 --> 00:35:56.510
You might think our words are harsh

00:35:56.590 --> 00:35:58.840
but it was for your own good.

00:36:00.840 --> 00:36:01.720
Niaoniao.

00:36:02.520 --> 00:36:05.160
Madam Chunyu is just one of the reasons.

00:36:05.470 --> 00:36:07.390
What worries me and your father

00:36:07.510 --> 00:36:08.800
is Ling Buyi.

00:36:09.000 --> 00:36:10.920
Ling Buyi is different from Lou Yao.

00:36:11.230 --> 00:36:12.350
His heart is firm.

00:36:12.550 --> 00:36:15.040
When he puts his heart into something,
he will definitely do it.

00:36:15.160 --> 00:36:17.550
You are also a stubborn person.

00:36:17.840 --> 00:36:19.080
How can two stubborn people

00:36:19.080 --> 00:36:20.550
get married?

00:36:20.960 --> 00:36:23.160
If you have arguments in the future,

00:36:23.270 --> 00:36:24.510
who will be the one to concede?

00:36:24.630 --> 00:36:26.680
Your father and I can't protect you.

00:36:29.920 --> 00:36:31.800
I know he is hard to get along with.

00:36:31.960 --> 00:36:33.470
Why did you agree to marry him then?

00:36:33.470 --> 00:36:34.270
Father.

00:36:36.120 --> 00:36:37.590
Do I have another choice?

00:36:42.630 --> 00:36:43.390
Today,

00:36:44.760 --> 00:36:46.920
Mother condemned me in front of everyone.

00:36:48.760 --> 00:36:50.000
Did you see

00:36:50.840 --> 00:36:53.310
the face of the ladies

00:36:53.840 --> 00:36:55.120
who usually laughed at my rudeness?

00:36:55.800 --> 00:36:56.550
Mother was firm

00:36:56.550 --> 00:36:58.880
on rejecting a troublesome son-in-law

00:36:59.350 --> 00:37:01.000
and condemned me

00:37:01.270 --> 00:37:02.510
until I'm worthless.

00:37:04.880 --> 00:37:06.310
I have self-esteem

00:37:07.310 --> 00:37:08.310
and pride as well.

00:37:09.390 --> 00:37:10.680
I want to live with dignity.

00:37:20.040 --> 00:37:20.800
Mother.

00:37:22.590 --> 00:37:23.470
Let me ask you.

00:37:25.590 --> 00:37:27.800
If Cheng Yang was the one
granted by His Majesty today,

00:37:29.430 --> 00:37:31.080
would you humiliate her
in front of everyone

00:37:31.550 --> 00:37:33.270
like how you did today?

00:37:33.840 --> 00:37:34.630
You...

00:37:46.840 --> 00:37:47.760
If it was Yangyang,

00:37:47.960 --> 00:37:49.720
I wouldn't have to be this worried.

00:37:52.270 --> 00:37:54.040
Why did you involve Yangyang?

00:37:57.720 --> 00:37:58.470
Niaoniao.

00:37:58.720 --> 00:38:01.430
Your mother didn't
condemn you on purpose.

00:38:01.680 --> 00:38:03.430
If she didn't say that,

00:38:03.630 --> 00:38:05.000
how could she persuade His Majesty?

00:38:05.270 --> 00:38:07.680
Even if we said the wrong things

00:38:07.760 --> 00:38:08.590
and hurt you,

00:38:09.120 --> 00:38:12.350
you shouldn't act recklessly
and put your marriage at stake.

00:38:12.350 --> 00:38:13.680
I didn't act recklessly.

00:38:16.310 --> 00:38:17.590
I thought about it seriously.

00:38:18.720 --> 00:38:20.350
I won't change my personality.

00:38:20.510 --> 00:38:21.630
No matter who I marry,

00:38:22.590 --> 00:38:24.160
Mother will still be worried.

00:38:24.760 --> 00:38:25.630
In that case,

00:38:25.960 --> 00:38:27.000
I should marry someone
as soon as possible

00:38:28.550 --> 00:38:30.120
so Mother can be relieved.

00:38:31.000 --> 00:38:32.680
Do you know how difficult this world is?

00:38:33.430 --> 00:38:35.390
When a woman marries the wrong man,

00:38:36.040 --> 00:38:37.590
it'll be a life of unhappiness.

00:38:37.920 --> 00:38:39.160
I am the only person who will suffer

00:38:39.160 --> 00:38:40.800
if I marry the wrong man.

00:38:41.840 --> 00:38:44.470
It's better than defying
an imperial order and harming the family.

00:38:50.230 --> 00:38:51.680
Both of you never taught me.

00:38:52.630 --> 00:38:54.310
I had a grudge in the past.

00:38:56.310 --> 00:38:57.920
But I understand now.

00:39:00.760 --> 00:39:02.430
I have never been filial
to both of you as well.

00:39:06.920 --> 00:39:07.800
So,

00:39:09.840 --> 00:39:11.390
we are even.

00:39:12.000 --> 00:39:13.920
I don't want Father
to lose his position because of me.

00:39:14.700 --> 00:39:15.920
I also don't want both of you

00:39:16.550 --> 00:39:18.960
to give up the glory of the Cheng Family
from abandoning me in the past

00:39:19.550 --> 00:39:20.880
because of me.

00:39:21.630 --> 00:39:22.800
If that's the case,

00:39:23.630 --> 00:39:24.960
it'll make me feel like

00:39:25.880 --> 00:39:27.840
I was born as a joke.

00:39:58.410 --> 00:39:59.370
Father. Mother.

00:40:00.250 --> 00:40:02.370
I'm the one
who decided on this marriage.

00:40:03.820 --> 00:40:04.980
I won't regret it.

00:40:06.660 --> 00:40:08.020
No matter what my future looks like,

00:40:09.940 --> 00:40:11.170
I will take responsibility alone

00:40:12.370 --> 00:40:13.620
and not involve the family.

00:40:16.530 --> 00:40:17.290
Fine.

00:40:18.090 --> 00:40:18.900
Fine.

00:40:21.740 --> 00:40:23.290
I will not interfere with your future.

00:40:24.060 --> 00:40:25.530
If you want to marry Ling Buyi,

00:40:26.580 --> 00:40:27.860
I will agree to it.

00:42:00.180 --> 00:42:07.220
The beacon-fire has knocked
over the white snow

00:42:09.020 --> 00:42:16.220
I caress the scars gently
from the past

00:42:17.780 --> 00:42:25.100
Your back to the light,
your eyes contain the galaxy

00:42:26.540 --> 00:42:33.700
I hum as the sun
and the moon mutter back

00:42:34.660 --> 00:42:38.420
The light between your brows

00:42:39.020 --> 00:42:42.900
Was put out and rekindled
by the secular world

00:42:43.680 --> 00:42:51.020
The sky, the mountain, and the ocean,
whom do I part them for?

00:42:53.020 --> 00:43:01.300
As I wake up from the blue sea,
stone steles stand like a mountain range

00:43:01.580 --> 00:43:10.020
Under the lantern, criticisms were thrown,
the narrow door could not contain my feelings

00:43:10.620 --> 00:43:18.740
The joys and woes of this mortal life,
we speak as we dream of the future

00:43:19.300 --> 00:43:22.980
Both of us will be

00:43:23.340 --> 00:43:34.200
In the sea of stars,
burning bright with our sincerity

00:43:36.540 --> 00:43:42.840
Our sincerity
