[Episode 3]

[Capital Administration Office]

I am Sun Qiaoniang.

Greetings, sir.

Sun Qiaoniang.

Let me ask you this.

Did Ji Chongyi push Jiang

into the river?

Qiaoniang, just tell him the truth.

You are safe with me.

Since you insist on

marrying into the Duke of Anguo's Mansion,

let me help you out.

But even if you do,

you'll only be a concubine at most.

However,
if you're willing to testify for me,

I'll help you out.

I'll make sure you'll become

the respected official wife.

Why don't you trust me this time?

Sir,

that night,

Mr. Ji was the one
who pushed Jiang Si into the water.

Qiaoniang,
what nonsense are you spouting?

Have you lost your mind?

Ji Chongyi,

if you keep shouting,

I'll convict you

of contempt of court!

What an excellent move.

She won her enemy to her side.

The testimony of a love rival

is more convincing than a stranger's.

Jiang Si, you're no simpleton indeed.

Let me ask you this again.

Did Ji Chongyi do it by accident?

Or on purpose?

He...

Don't be afraid.

Tell me the truth.

Qiaoniang,

I didn't push her on purpose.

You were right behind me.

I'm sure you saw everything.

I didn't mean to do that!

Mr. Ji.

Now, you've confessed.

You were the one who pushed me

into the water, right?

It wasn't me.

I didn't mean to push you!

How dare you change your statements

and lie to me in court?

Drag him out!

Flog him ten times!

- Yes!
- Yes!

I dare you!

My father is the Duke of Anguo!

Don't you dare!

They ganged up on me

to force me to annul the marriage!

Sir, I'm innocent!

Sir!

Chongli!

Sir, please show mercy.

Who are you?

I'm Ji Chongli, the son
of the Duke of Anguo.

I'm here to make a plea for Ji Chongyi.

Sir, I'm innocent!

Jiangsi and Qiaoniang

conspired to deceive me

so that I had no choice
but to annul the marriage!

I'm speaking the truth!

Sir, I'm innocent!

Put your back into it!

He deserved that!

- He deserved that!
- He deserved that!

This is the court of
the Capital Administration Office.

Whether you are of noble birth

or a mere commoner,

I shall treat you all the same.

Only right and wrong shall be discussed.

Chongli.

Sir, I'm innocent.

They conspired against me.

Qiaoniang, continue.

Sir.

He...

How was my acting?

It was just the right amount.

It must've been tough.

Here.

Take the prenatal medicine first.

It's no longer hot.

Qiaoniang!

Qiaoniang!

Call that wretch to show herself!

Stop hiding! Come out!

Mr. Ji?

What are you up to?

You're here, huh?

That means Jiang Si is here too.

Tell her to come out!

Go now!

Stay here for now.

I know you all are here!

Hurry and show yourself!

Where are they?

Mr. Ji,

seems like the flogging
wasn't enough, huh?

You're able to get out of bed
and interrogate us here.

You wretches

are something else.

One of you pretended to be inarticulate

while the other came up
with blatant lies.

In the end,

you two conspired to harm me!

You two-timed us.

You want to deceive and coax me,
an innocent maiden,

into marrying into your family.

Why? Can't I even retaliate?

You!

Madam Wei,

is this how you raise your child?

Shut up!

My son is a cut above the rest.

You're lucky that he fell for you.

You wretch.

How exactly did she

bewitch you

for you to malign my son

in court?

If so, we're all going down!

Marriage to our family

is out of the question for all of you.

Madam Wei, you do live up
to your reputation.

You're still telling blatant lies

even though it has come to this.

I never wanted to marry into your family

in the first place.

But Qiaoniang, she...

Qiaoniang, let's sit down and talk.

But Qiaoniang,

she's pregnant

with your son's child.

Wait...

Wait...

She... She's pregnant?

It's obvious
that you have ulterior motives.

You just want to blackmail me

with the child in your tummy.

She's just a lowly merchant.

Who knows who's been in your shop,

or what your connection

is to them?

What makes you say

that the child is mine?

I've witnessed the capabilities

of the Duke of Anguo's family

in court today.

You can make wrong seem right.

However, I'm all alone.

There's nothing you can
blackmail me with.

Whether

you acknowledge the child or not,

his surname will be Ji.

I'm sure Mr. Zhen and the citizens

know about

my relationship

with your son.

If anything happens to me,

the Duke of Anguo's Mansion
will be the prime suspect.

Not everyone can marry into

the Duke of Anguo's Mansion.

Oh, that was riveting.

I thought you would

care about your family ties

when you learned
about Qiaoniang's pregnancy.

I never expected you

to be this heartless.

It's understandable, though.

Once this gets around,

everyone will know
Mr. Ji married Qiaoniang

for her fortune,

not her heart,

so he can settle his debts.

I'm sure that sounds reasonable.

Why did you tell her everything?

Before this, he tried to trick me
into marrying him

so that

he could cheat me of my money as well.

But I assume

the Duke of Anguo has no idea
about this, am I right?

What do you want?

I want a letter of annulment.

Qiaoniang wants a marriage letter.

And, she'll be his official wife.

You must've lost your mind!

You're just a lowly merchant.

In your dreams.

Your son was the one

who fell for the money

this lowly merchant has made.

I'll repay his debt for him.

You should stop dreaming.

Mr. Ji,

you do have a great mother indeed.

I'm so envious.

But since it has come to this,

it's either you two

agree to our conditions

or tell Mr. Zhen

in court

how you intend
to cheat your lover of her money,

harm your fiancee,

and how you intend to disown the child

after making her pregnant.

Make sure he knows everything you did.

If it really comes to that,

I think passing the imperial exam

and joining the official ranks

are but dreams

for you.

Such a despicable plot.

You two are trying to ruin my life!

Mother, please help me out.

One mistake, and now look at this mess!

Even if I promise to make her
the official wife,

the Duke of Anguo
will never agree to it.

Madam Wei, according to my knowledge,

you were once a concubine as well.

But now,

you've become the official wife

of the Duke of Anguo.

I believe

that you'll come up with a solution.

Miss Si,

Madam Wei has promised

the annulment.

Why are you still

so troubled?

Things are bound
to take an unexpected turn

until I receive the letter.

How could I possibly rest at ease?

I wonder how my father did

with the handover

at the Duke of Anguo's Mansion.

Hopefully,
there will be no further trouble.

Miss Si, you did change a lot

after falling into the water.

What do you mean?

You never did
any landscape paintings in the past.

Is that so?

That's right.

Look.

This,

this,

and this,

you drew them in the past.

They were all flower and bird paintings.

Before this,
I got married to Ji Chongyi.

I've gone through a lot.

In the end, I ended up
at the Southern Frontier.

But now, I'm given the chance

to see the vast and beautiful landscapes
beyond Ling'an.

A woman's entire life is spent

trapped in the inner chambers,

admiring flowers, enjoying bird fights,

and indulging in endless feasts.

What else is there for them to draw

except for flower and bird paintings?

However, the landscape
depicted in the painting

is quite unique.

I've never seen such a landscape

in Ling'an before.

Miss Si, where were you drawing?

The landscape I drew

was the one I saw in my dream.

Si!

Si!

Si!

Si!

Look at what we have here!

[Jiang Si, Ji Chongyi]

A letter of annulment!

That's right.

Zhan, look!

Thank you, Father.

Zhen, this is great!

Rescind your charges?

Yes, sir.

Did the Duke of Anguo's Mansion

blackmail you?

No.

Sir, I did so of my own accord.

This morning,

my father has already retrieved
the letter of annulment

from the Duke of Anguo's Mansion.

Miss Jiang,

you never flinched

and were fearless in court.

You're no ordinary woman.

You possess an impressive demeanor.

Why are you backing off all of a sudden?

Sir, you flatter me.

I'm

an ordinary woman.

I just don't want to
be married to the wrong man

and regret it for the rest of my life.

The whole time,

I was only thinking of myself.

I wasn't trying
to do anything noble here.

Since the Duke of Anguo's Mansion

has already written
a letter of annulment,

that means I've achieved my goal.

Miss Jiang, I beg to differ.

If your testimony was true,

I could charge Ji Chongyi

with manslaughter.

Marriage is the forming of ties
between two families.

According to the law,

one's marriage can be annulled

if the other party

commits a crime.

Sir, that's not it.

Ji Chongyi didn't mean to harm me.

He did it by accident.

I heard

that Madam Wei had looked for

Sun Qiaoniang recently.

Did she bribe Qiaoniang?

Bribing witnesses

is also a violation of the law.

Sir, that's not the case.

It was just an accident.

Father, how is it?

Is it nice?

Si, your cooking skills

have gotten better and better.

Father, I'll make more delicacies
for you in the future.

Sure.

Father.

Did everything go well

when you visited
the Duke of Anguo's Mansion yesterday?

They were at fault
for their lack of virtue

and impoliteness.

When I arrived,

I wasn't willing
to waste my breath on them.

I retrieved the letter of annulment

and left.

However,

your grandmother found out

about the letter of annulment
and the charges being rescinded.

She made me kneel in front
of the ancestral hall for some time.

Grandmother made you kneel?

By kneeling,

I'm able to make
my daughter happy again.

It was worth it.

You're getting old.

How could she make you kneel?

Si!

What's it?

I've invited Yu and Mr. Zhen

to join us for a meal.

They'll arrive soon.

I'll receive them at the door.

You should dress yourself up.

Father, you too.

What did he say?

Did he tell me to dress up as well?

Miss Si.

There's a diagram

on the back of your neck.

What's wrong with my neck?

Miss Si, sit down.

Raise it higher and show it to me.

Over here.

Miss Si, can you see it?

Why did the Saintess Emblem
appear on my neck?

Was it because

I once lived in Nanwu?

[Border area of Zhou and Nanwu]

Wake up.

Water.

What?

Water.

Water?

Here.

Are you okay?

Are you from Zhou?

I am.

But don't worry.

I won't report you to them.

This can help stop the bleeding.

Here is water and some herbs.

I'll leave them here.

That's all I can do for you.

Be careful.

[Few months later]

[Nanwu]

I think there's someone here.

She's from Zhou.

Don't tell me she fell off

this cliff.

She's so lucky to be alive.

She rescued me before.

She's seriously wounded.

Let's take her back for now.

Today,

[Grand Elder, Nanwu]
I shall take you as my disciple.

I was forced to jump off a cliff.

You all rescued me.

Grand Elder, you disregarded
the feud between our realms,

took me in as your disciple,

and imparted your skills to me.

Please accept my bow.

The people of Nanwu

never rescue the people of Zhou.

It's just that you've rescued Du'er

without caring about
the feud between our realms.

Now, we're returning the favor.

However, from now on,

you must not have any contact
with the people of Zhou again.

There's no longer a place

for me in Zhou.

I'm willing to remain in Nanwu.

Mr. Zhen, Yu.

Please come inside.

We're truly honored

to have you two here today.

Father! Si!

Mr. Zhen and Yu are here.

Welcome.

My lords, please come inside.

Regarding my daughter's
marriage annulment,

it's all thanks to
Mr. Zhen's impartial conduct in the case

and Mr. Yu's effort

to locate the witnesses.

I appreciate it a lot.

I feel bad

that I couldn't do more.

My Lord,

I was just fulfilling my duty.

If I didn't conduct
the case impartially,

I'm afraid the people of Ling'an

might be disappointed in me
in the future.

Miss Jiang,

if you wish to change your mind,

I'm still willing to help you
convict Ji Chongyi

of the crime of manslaughter
at any time.

Thank you, sir.

The weather is hot and stuffy today.

Coincidentally, we've made

some refreshing snacks.

Why don't we move to the hall

and try them?

That's right.

I appreciate your kindness.

I don't think that's necessary.

You're being too courteous.

Just now, you said
the weather was hot and stuffy

and that you wanted

to buy some refreshing fruits.

Thank you, Miss Jiang.

Sirs, please.

[Chaoyu Yard, Haitang House]

Mount Shenjian of Nanwu?

But according
to the intel I've received,

both siblings

have never left Ling'an before,

not to mention heading
to a place like Mount Shenjian.

If so, how did she find out?

She even drew herself in her painting.

Are you saying that this female figure

is Miss Jiang?

That's right.

Why can't I tell

that this is her?

You don't need to.

You can't tell it anyway.

Chief.

I think we shouldn't
get ourselves tangled

while investigating the Saintess.

I'm sure she has visited
Mount Shenjian before.

That's the only reason

she can draw
such a vivid painting of it.

But Chief, look here.

There are two horses in the painting,

but only one of them is occupied.

That's why we have to gather

more leads

in order to solve this riddle.

Aman!

Aman?

Miss Si, I'm coming.

Have you seen the painting on my table?

No, Miss Si.

Come and help me out.

Could it be that Yu Qi

is trying everything he can
to get close to me

in order to investigate
my identity as the Saintess?

Miss Si, the diagram is gone.

Si!

Zhan, what's the matter?

Yu has moved here.

Let's go and congratulate him.

Zhan, you can do it yourself.

Aman, get me some papers.

Yes, Miss Si.

Si,

Yu just arrived here

not long ago.

He's all alone and friendless here.

He invited me

to join him.

He's showing me a lot of respect.

Besides,

he just

rescued both of us, you know?

Zhan, you can head there yourself.

I...

I can.

But

going together

will show everyone

how much influence

we have.

Zhan, stop trying to persuade me.

I'm going to draw now.

Si.

Be honest with me.

Did that Yu fellow

bully you in the past?

Zhan, what nonsense
are you talking about?

Why would you have that thought?

I have the feeling

that you're hostile toward him.

But I can't think of

any outrageous things

he might've done to enrage you.

Si, do you dislike him

for being a brawny brute?

Is that why
you're not willing to visit him?

Since when did I prioritize
the pen over the sword?

You have to be honest with me.

Even if I'm indebted to him,

these two are different matters.

If he dares bully you,

I'll go and beat him up!

Zhan, who do you want to beat up?

Why? You don't believe me?

I do.

Come on, Aman.

Let's make a trip.

Yes, Miss Si.

This is great.

These flowers look great.

Si,

you should add them to the gift list.

Give them to me.

Mr. Zhan!

You can give him a gift all you like.

But why must you

use Miss Si's precious flowers
as your gift?

Miss Si planted

these Begonia flowers herself.

Si,

although I've chosen
plenty of valuable treasures,

no matter how exquisite they are,

they're bound to be tacky.

Look at these flowers.

They look traditional and beautiful
under your care.

If we add this to our gift list,

our gifts will be showy yet elegant.

They'll be flawless.

Mr. Zhan,

you've already prepared plenty of gifts.

You should let our flowers off.

Si didn't even comment.
What makes you think you should?

Si,

my gifts are my tokens of appreciation.

I don't think you should
head there empty-handed.

Right now,

I suppose there's no way

to find a better gift.

But Miss Si...

We have no choice.

Let's do as Zhan says for now.

Yu, congratulations on
moving into your new house.

Thank you.

It's more lively now that you're here.

I've brought you some items

for you to decorate your house with.

You shouldn't have done so.

Don't stand on ceremony.

Thank you.

Yu,

you have no idea

how happy my sister and I were

when we heard

that we were going to be neighbors.

I feel the same too.

It's so convenient
now that we're neighbors.

Si has also prepared

a humble gift for you.

It's not a humble gift at all.

It's an exceptional pot

even in Miss Si's courtyard, you know?

Let me see.

It's just a pot of flowers.

You have no idea.

Miss Si

planted these Begonia flowers herself.

She tends to them day and night.

Even the style of trimming

was designed beforehand

before it was trimmed.

It's not like our chief

has never seen a plant before.

Miss Si! I told you already!
We shouldn't give it to them!

Aman, that's enough.

Put it down.

Farewell.

Si?

Yu, please don't take it to heart.

It's fine.

Chief.

It looks great.

Yu,

I've prepared some items for you.

Let's check them out.

There are more?

Yes.

There are plenty of them.

How is this good?

You've prepared so many gifts for me.

This is great.

Yu, all the items I've brought here

will surely be of use to you.

Well... Ji!

Bring the pot
with the Dragon and Phoenix design

here.

Yu.

You should place it

here.

It may look tacky.

But in reality...

It's elegant.

If you put it here,

it'll be both beautiful

and

auspicious.

Place it there.

Yes.

Erniu, you're here to help us out too.

Come on. Give it to me.

Good dog.

The drawing techniques of this painting,

why do they resemble my sister's?

Is that so?

Is Miss Jiang

a talented artist as well?

However, my sister only draws
flower and bird paintings.

She doesn't do landscape paintings.

Yu.

Who's the female figure in the painting?

How should I know?

Is she not your beloved?

No.

Really?

There's no need to be shy.

This is a token
from Tianxiang Pleasure House.

You still want to deny it?

What are you referring to?

It's the best pleasure house in Ling'an.

Long Dan!

Don't put your stuff on my table!

Wait, it isn't yours?

I understand!

Come on. Let's check out the vases.

Cixin Hall is inviting us there

this early in the morning.

I'm sure nothing good
will come out of it.

If I must say,

Miss Si, why don't you
come up with an excuse

to excuse yourself?

Grandmother sent her men here
to invite me.

As her granddaughter,

I have no right
to refuse this invitation

without a valid reason.

Moreover,

she is still angry

about my marriage annulment.

She's just waiting
to pick faults with me.

If so, are we still heading there?

If we do, we'll surely be ridiculed.

I don't mind

how Grandmother will treat me.

I just don't want Father

to be punished by Grandmother

at this age

because of me.

You should laugh more, Grandmother.

Nothing is

as important as your health.

Miss Si,

that sounds like Miss Qian.

You and your sweet words.

Miss Qian, you must

come back and visit us more often.

Old Madam's mood improved

the moment you're back.

[Jiang Qian, Cao Xingyu's wife]
If so, Grandmother,

[Jiang Si's elder cousin]
I'll come back and visit you often.

Grandmother, please have some tea.

Greetings, Grandmother.

Jiang Qian.

Why are you doing this?

Why did you start coughing again?

Miss Si, the medicine is ready.

Here, hand it to me.

Yes, Miss Si.

Qian, finish the medicine

while it's hot.

The medicine isn't that bitter.

I'll get some fruits

for you, Qian.

Xingyu.

Xingyu!

Qian!

Why are you calling for her?

She's asleep.

I'll keep you company.

Qian!

Stop shouting.

What took you so long?

Let go of me!

Stop shouting.

Help me!

I told you to come earlier, right?

Qian!

Qian!

Let go of me!

Qian?

Jiang Si.

I've waited for you for a long time.

Do you think you can escape?

Qian?

Can't you tell that she's on my side?

Come on.

Qian!

You're not coming, huh?

I'll go to you, then.

Qian!

Let go of me!

You smell great.

Qian!

You still want to run?

Why exactly

would a woman help her husband

to defile her sister?

Qian came back just to visit you.

Si.

You're so impolite.

Aren't you going

to greet Qian?

Qian.

Don't just stand there.

Come here and have a seat.

Si, long time no see.

I've missed you.

You must've suffered.

Not at all.

Qian, you don't need to take pity on me.

Si.

Grandmother, don't be angry.

Qian's marriage was annulled.

I'm sure she feels terrible.

Not at all.

I feel great.

Qian, you're making me upset

by bringing it up

constantly.

Si!

How could you not appreciate
her kind intentions?

She came back to visit you

after hearing about your news.

But you?

You don't appreciate her at all.

Hurry and apologize to her.

Grandmother.

Qian and I

didn't argue or bicker.

Why should I

apologize to her out of the blue?

Qian,

have I offended you?

No.

Si, do you miss the eldest sister

after seeing me?

Is that why you feel upset?

If I do miss her,

I'll visit her.

It's among us sisters.

Qian, you don't need to worry.

Si.

You have no sense
of propriety or discipline at all.

Why are you always at odds with her?

Do you want me to punish you
using the family law?

Grandmother, please be appeased.

It's getting late.

There are plenty of affairs to handle
in Marquis of Changxing's Mansion.

It's time for me to head back.

Indeed.

You're not as free as a maiden.

I'll take my leave.

Please take care.

Live well, okay?

Si, why don't you see me out?

It's been a while since we met.

Si, why do I feel like

you're somewhat distant from me?

Qian, it must be your imagination.

Great.

I'm glad to hear
that you didn't grow distant from me.

I know

that you've been in a bad mood lately.

How about this?

I'll send you an invitation.

Why don't you live at my residence

for a few days?

I'll invite the other sisters as well.

Si, why are you staring at me like that?

Is there something on my face?

A few days ago, at the training ground,

Xingyu hurt Zhan by accident.

I've heard about it.

Si, are you angry about that?

On the b*ttlefield,
it's normal to get injured.

Xingyu did nothing wrong.

Great.

Si, come to the mansion.

I'll tell him

to apologize to you personally.

No need for that.

Our eldest sister will return soon.

I need to wait for her.

You can come to my residence first.

Once she has arrived,

I can send you back. What do you think?

Qian, didn't you tell me

that you had plenty of family matters

to attend to?

If you don't head back now,

Xingyu will get impatient.

Madam, we're ready.

We may depart now.

All right, then.

If you wish to come,

you may visit me anytime.

Your sister's beauty

is

breathtaking.

Although she's a beauty,

Ji Chongyi isn't lucky enough
to have her.

Return to your family tomorrow.

Visit Miss Si

and invite her...

over.

What are you up to?

She's my sister, you know?

What's wrong?

Are you not willing to do so?

I'll ask you one last time.

Will you head there or not?

Miss Yi instructed her men
to send them here.

To my sister, Si.

Where the heart is at peace,
all things are calm.

Do not waste tears

on those unworthy of them,

for a good fate will come,

and a bright future awaits.

Always hold onto hope.

I apologize for not being able
to be there in person.

My heart is full of regret.

I hope you won't mind.

[Jiang Yi, Jiang Si's elder sister]
We will meet again in the future

[Eldest girl among siblings and cousins]
and confide in each other.

I wish for your health and well-being.

In the past,

Yi was divorced.

She took poison and ended her own life

not long after she returned home.

When she passed away,

she was still in her twenties.

Yi,

this time,

I won't let anyone harm you.

Have you seen

a child this tall?

Madam!

Have you seen my daughter around?

Her name is Niu.

Madam, have you seen Niu around?

Is she the lunatic?

I think that's Madam Xiu.

She's looking for her child every day.

She has truly gone insane.

Niu!

That crazed woman

is a tofu seller.

People call her Tofu Beauty.

She became a widow at a young age.

She raised her daughter by herself.

But her daughter went missing

a few days ago.

Such a poor lady.

Niu?

Niu!

It's Niu!

You're mistaken.

This is our lady!

Go away!

Aman.

Niu?

Niu.

Where have you been?

Miss,

you got the wrong person.

[Madam Xiu]

You resemble her.

You look just like her.

When other people's children

went outside to play,

she never joined them.

She spent her day grinding tofu with me.

She never enjoyed a single day

under my care.

She said she would come back

after selling tofu
at Marquis of Changxing's Mansion.

Where is she now?

Niu?

Niu!

Niu.

Where are you?

Niu!

I'm not her.

Niu!

Have you seen a child

this tall?

No.

Marquis of Changxing's Mansion?

Aman, get me some papers
and an envelope.

Yes, Miss Si.

Niu resembled

me.

The last place she visited

was the Marquis of Changxing's Mansion.

If I'm not mistaken,

that innocent young girl

went missing

at the Marquis of Changxing's Mansion

because she resembled me.

Cao Xingyu is a beast.

Although I can avoid him,

I have no way to stop him

from harming other people.

[Jiang Qian]

Aman.

Deliver this letter

to the Marquis of Changxing's Mansion.

But

you rejected Miss Qian earlier.

Are you sure you want

to visit her?

Let's play it her way until the end.

Go now.

Yes, Miss Si.

Jiang Si, you know what?

The more you struggle,

the more excited I get!

That place is worse

than nightmares.

Although it's a dangerous place,

I have to go there.

This time,

the evil

shall reap what they sow.

[Count of Dongping's Mansion]

Si!

Zhan.

Are you heading out?

I left some fragrances
at Qiaoxiang Pavilion.

I'm going to retrieve them.

What a coincidence.

I was planning to go outside.

Let me join you.

Sure.

Mr. Zhan.

I thought we just came back...

Let's go.

[Western Marketplace]

Does it look nice?

It does.

Tanghulu!

I want some!

Mister, one for you?

Do you want some Tanghulu?

Aman, do you want one?

I feel like having one.

- There you go, Si.
- Here.

Thank you, Miss Si.

Mr. Zhan, aren't you going to have one?

What a joke.

A man like me would never
eat something like Tanghulu.

Is it closed?

[Qiaoxiang Pavilion]

Why don't we visit another shop,

Si?

No need for that.

Qiaoniang kept the door open for me.

You should head inside, then.

I'll wait for you out here.

All right, Zhan.

[To Miss Si.
Please retrieve it at any time]
