[Episode 24]
Physician, how is Jing'er?
Your Majesty. His Highness's
wound did not injure a vital point.
- Very good.
- That's good.
- Very good.
- That's good.
- Very good.
- But...
But what? Tell me quickly.
The assassin's weapon was poisonous.
Poisonous?
What should we do?
I'm afraid His Highness...
Changsheng, don't worry.
Chu Ge has been captured.
She'll be interrogated carefully,
and asked to hand over the antidote.
Someone, bring the guilty woman to trial now.
Whatever the method, we'll
make her hand over the antidote.
Yes.
Imperial Father, please let
me interrogate her myself.
- Child. She is a murderous—
- Calm down.
I will definitely send someone
to protect Changsheng.
No.
Imperial Father.
I want to interrogate her alone.
Father, Mother.
You guys go back first.
Be careful, Changsheng.
Let's go.
Miss Ru Jing.
Go in and see him.
Changsheng.
Go ahead.
Rest assured. Me, Zilv and
the imperial physician are here.
We won't let anything happen to him.
Thank you, Aunt.
Rest assured. I will cooperate with
the physician to save His Highness.
Wait for me.
Your Highness.
From now on, you can be able to rest easy.
It's just that...
I can't accompany you anymore.
I'm sorry.
Princess Consort of Qin.
You can go. I won't give you the antidote.
You can use any punishment
you want. I am not afraid of death.
I don't want you to die.
I want Prince of Qin to live.
Impossible!
You will give me the antidote.
Because I believe we are the same kind of people.
You are the Princess of Fuyu, and
Great Tang's Princess Consort of Qin.
You have a high status.
But I was born in a common family.
Now I'm just a prisoner.
How could we be the same?
These are all external things.
I mean we both love our husband deeply.
You've come to this point and done all the bad things
not for fame or fortune.
You did all that for Fifth Brother, right?
Fifth Brother's whereabouts are unknown.
Do you know where he is?
I don't.
I know.
Really?
You're lying to me.
In order to help him, you took
desperate measures and risked your life.
Have you ever thought about the
fact that he would come back, for you?
Impossible.
Otherwise who do you think notified the
Imperial Guards who appeared in time?
His Highness?
He asked His Majesty to spare your life.
If you're willing to hand over
the antidote, I can let you go.
I won't believe it. Unless I see His Highness.
Hand over the antidote first.
- Prince of Qin has no time left.
- Before I see him, I won't give you anything!
If something happens to Prince of Qin,
I will only give you Fifth Brother's body.
Okay.
Then let's take a gamble.
Let's see who can outlast whom.
- You...
- He won't come back at all.
I know him too well.
You can't fool me.
Liu Changsheng,
just wait to collect Lv Jing's body.
Yes.
We haven't found Fifth Brother yet.
But Chu Ge,
Lv Jing and I have never
thought about harming you guys.
Please let him go.
Okay?
Let him go?
Insects never intend to harm people.
But because people hate them, they k*lled them all.
Not to mention he was the one
who harmed you many times first.
Will you really let him go?
Liu Changsheng, instead
of wasting time with me here,
it's better to spend more time with Lv Jing.
After all, his time is running out.
[Prince of Qin's Mansion]
Liu Changsheng, I won't give you the antidote.
Just wait to collect Lv Jing's body.
The doctor said Cold Farewell Dream
is a very difficult poison to prepare.
It would be fine if it was fatal.
Surviving it is the greatest tragedy.
What does it mean?
Tell me quickly.
Cold Farewell Dream can cause hallucinations.
The poisoned person will not die immediately.
But he will fall into sleep
and frequently experience what he
fears most until he dies from exhaustion.
His Highness woke up!
His Highness woke up!
[Upright and Clearheaded]
You're awake.
I've been lying for too long.
So I came out for a stroll.
Can you smile a bit?
Your expression looks as if I have died.
Don't talk nonsense.
Do you think
I will die first?
You're not allowed to go anywhere.
Help me up for a walk.
If you leave, that would confirm the rumor about me.
Who will dare to marry me in the future?
It's only been a few days since we got married.
Now you have the idea of remarrying?
So, you have to get well soon and keep an eye on me.
All right.
Don't worry.
I will definitely get better.
Where's the physician?
The imperial physicians
disagreed on the medication.
Then they started quarreling.
I found them annoying. So I drove them away.
Really?
If you don't believe me, I'll call them
back and let them fight in front of you,
see if you will be annoyed.
Forget it.
I don't want them to bother us.
[Beautiful Lantern Pavilion]
What are the cloth and paper afraid of?
Of course they're afraid of fire.
Wrong.
Cloth fears a thousand times, paper fears a mere one chance.
[T/N: pun of proverb meaning "better to be safe than sorry"]
Do you know why swallows fly south in autumn?
Because it's too cold in the north.
Wrong.
Because it's slow by walking.
Then do you know...
what are the cloth and paper afraid of?
Of course they're afraid of fire.
Wrong.
Cloth fears a thousand times,
paper fears a mere one chance.
♫ Across mountains and seas, covered in snow ♫
Let's go back.
Okay.
♫ We continue writing the story ♫
Careful.
♫ Traversing autumn fields and counting
the snowflakes, in search of your smile ♫
Changsheng.
Just stay with me like this, okay?
♫ When the flower petals fall, the countless
lanterns are lit, I'll see you again ♫
Okay.
It's nice.
I just want to be with you peacefully like this.
One house.
Two people.
Three meals.
Four seasons.
We'll always be together.
Till death do us apart.
Till death do us apart.
Yi'an, in order to marry
me, you've kept getting hurt.
Have you regretted it?
Without you,
my life would be pointless
even if I stay healthy.
♫ Can we meet again to
fulfill our unfinished promise? ♫
[Prince of Qin's Mansion]
Stop moving.
After taking the medicine,
has Prince of Qin gotten better?
He woke up once last night
and fell asleep again today.
You should go and rest.
I'm fine.
I want to be with him.
What kind of sin did you two commit?
So many twists and turns.
I heard there is a limit to what
a person can suffer in this life.
No sweet without sweat.
We'll have a good life in the future.
So many medicines.
Will they counteract each other?
I've seen the prescriptions.
They are all nourishing medicines.
Nourishing medicines?
Can it cure His Highness' disease?
Stop thinking too much.
Didn't you say that people should have faith?
His Highness fell off the cliff that day, but
you still believed he'd return peacefully.
Xiao Zilv!
Do you think the rumor is true?
First, he fell off the cliff before the wedding.
Then on the wedding day,
someone tried to assassinate him.
What are you saying? You
need to be confident in yourself.
Didn't Sheng Tiangang say he's
the one who came to subdue you?
Wan'er is still interrogating Chu Ge.
With her tactics, I believe
we will get the antidote soon.
[Fine Spirits of the Universe]
I've never seen such a stubborn person.
I've tried every method.
She is simply seeking death.
Seeking death?
Why hasn't she died then?
Maybe she's waiting for someone to rescue her.
Lv Ke's whereabouts are unknown.
- Could it be that he went to ask for help?
- Impossible.
Ke'er was born humble.
His mother is a palace maid.
He doesn't have any relatives to help.
Now he's fallen from power,
where could he find help?
What is Chu Ge waiting for?
Maybe she is waiting for Lv Ke to come back for her.
Doesn't Chu Ge know what kind of person is Lv Ke?
How could he come back?
He's back! He's back!
Who's back?
Fifth Prince is back.
Now he's in the Imperial Study meeting His Majesty.
Since you already left,
why did you come back?
For a woman.
A woman?
Not to mention you don't believe
it, even I myself don't believe it.
But I know what she did for me.
So I had to come back.
If I left, all troubles would end.
I'd feel alarmed if I came back and live in fear.
But I...
couldn't take a step further.
So I came back.
Good.
Well said.
You should live in fear.
Do you think I don't know what you and that woman did?
I want to give you a chance to live.
It's a pity that my good will
almost got my Jing'er k*lled.
Fortunately, on the wedding day,
I made preparations in advance.
I've said it thousands of times
that brothers should live in harmony.
Harmony!
Live in harmony.
Can you do it?
Since we were children,
you've favored Second Brother
and doted on Third Brother.
What about me?
Where am I?
I wasn't born nobly like Second Brother,
and am not as capable as Third Brother.
I have to fight for what I want.
Is there anything wrong with this?
To this day,
I've done everything and got nothing in the end.
If you say I'm inferior to others, I admit it.
If you want to k*ll me, I'll die.
But you tell me brothers should live in harmony?
Imperial Father. You've come
this far, reaching this high position,
being all-powerful, and
determining other people's destiny.
Was it because you live in
harmony with your brothers?
You've lived until now,
hoping to live a peaceful
and happy life with no cares.
Then why did you force us to fight?
So stop asking us for something
even you don't believe in.
Fine.
Fine. Fine.
The moment I decided to
come back, I didn't plan to live.
Wasn't Lv Jing poisoned?
I can get the antidote.
But I have one condition.
In my heart, there are no
obsessions, just Your Highness.
Ge'er. Sometimes I'm really glad
that you didn't stand against me.
Marrying Your Highness is my honor.
I don't know much. I just want my husband to be happy.
Your Highness. In my life, I will always be with you,
and never leave you.
Come on.
I'm ready.
Your Highness.
Why did you come?
Go, go, go. Leave!
Ge'er.
I came late.
Don't look at me. Don't look at me.
Let me take one last look at you.
Last look?
Are they going to execute me?
It's okay, Your Highness. Lv Jing
has been poisoned. I'll take him with me.
I did all these things by myself.
It has nothing to do with you.
You can rest assured, Your Highness.
Where is the antidote?
Antidote?
The antidote is...
All right, you can go now.
Guards.
I will leave first.
Your Highness, take care of yourself.
Let's go.
Ge'er.
You must live well.
Wait.
You can go now.
- Go?
- Fifth Prince took all the blame for you.
What do you mean?
She committed such a serious
crime, and is released just like that?
Yes. Fifth Prince used his freedom
and the antidote to save her life.
Let me take one last look at you.
What did you just mean? Open the door for me!
What did you just say?
I want to see His Highness!
I want to see His Highness!
Open the door! No!
No... No...
No... No...
I haven't seen such symptoms before.
Yeah. The key is that we've never seen this poison.
- Yes.
- Changsheng.
- We still need the antidote.
- I'm here.
- I'm here.
- His Highness woke up.
- He woke up?
- He's awake.
I'm not going anywhere.
What should we do?
How is it? Can you cure him?
Princess, perhaps because Prince
of Qin has some martial arts skills,
he woke up once before.
But if it drags on like this,
I'm afraid he won't make it.
- You must cure him.
- Yes.
Imperial Brother has already
said if you can't cure him,
all of you will...
Aunt. Don't make things hard for them.
I'm not. The imperial
physician said he can be cured.
Yes, he can be cured. He can definitely be cured.
Yes, yes, he can definitely be cured.
He can be cured.
Let's keep studying on it.
Tell me, what should we do?
The antidote is here. Lv Ke gave it to us.
This is the antidote. Quickly
let Prince of Qin take it.
Come on. Come on.
I won't believe anyone's words but yours.
[Upright and Clearheaded]
His Highness just took the
antidote. He's much better now.
Do you want to go in and check on him?
No. I'm here to say goodbye.
I've been bothering you for so
long. It's time for me to leave.
Why so sudden?
I have troubled you for so long. How
can I keep staying here any longer?
Don't make a sad face. You
should be happy that I'm leaving.
If you said this, what else
can I say except that I'm happy?
Have a safe trip.
Do you know at that moment of life and death,
you risked your life to save him,
but I backed off?
That's when I realized I don't love him, but myself.
My love is possession.
It's obsession like Grandfather said.
Don't you feel at ease now that
you've let your obsession go?
How can it be so easy to let go?
If it were that easy to let
go, it's not called obsession.
Even if I can't let go, I will
put it somewhere in my heart.
One day, I will let go.
It's getting late.
I should set off now.
Ru Jing.
Come visit us when you have time.
Take good care of him, and take care of yourself too.
Hurry up! Make the dredging collaterals soup!
- This won't do.
- Hurry up!
He has to eat my orange
osmanthus nourishing pellet.
No, no, yours won't do either.
Use my ginseng pills to nourish his vitality.
Quick.
Princess Consort. Princess Consort!
- What's wrong?
- His Highness...
His Highness, he...
What happened?
- Princess Consort.
- Put out the flame.
Princess Consort.
His Highness was fine after taking the antidote.
But suddenly he vomited a lot of blood.
- His pulse is weak now.
- Is this antidote actually poison?
I have also checked the
antidote. It's absolutely real.
Then how could this happen?
Maybe the toxicity has been
accumulating for a long time.
Don't say maybe. Cure him. Understand?
Yes, Princess Consort. I'm on it.
Hurry up! Hurry up!
Get a refill.
The fire.
[Solemn Thoughts]
This is the wedding gift for
you from Sheng Tiangang.
He said it can only be opened in an emergency.
[Stay, you see the dark clouds;
Leave, you see the silver lining]
Jinx. Go back!
Do you think the rumor is true?
First, he fell off the cliff before the wedding. Then
on the wedding day, someone tried to assassinate him.
[Stay, you see the dark clouds;
Leave, you see the silver lining]
[Marriage Alliance]
It's daylight.
I know you've never regretted it.
But now that things have come to this,
I prefer to believe that my rumor is true.
I have brought these disasters upon you.
I hope my departure will give you a chance to live.

Your Highness.
Your Highness.
Can you not leave?
- Youyong, Youmou.
- Yes.
Take good care of Jinyan and Shenxing.
And take care of the Chinese Sumac Forest.
Understand?
Your Highness, there must be other ways.
Give it more time.
The doctors and Xiao Zilv can't think of a way.
Maybe my leaving is the only way.
- Princess Consort.
- Don't try to persuade me.
I have decided.

[Divorce Letter]
♫ Let the longing burn the years away ♫
♫ How can the lone lamp comfort me? ♫
♫ The sky has already darkened ♫
This is the divorce letter.
I wrote it for him and left my fingerprint on it.
It counts.
I don't have time to say goodbye to everyone.
Please apologize to Princess, and Xiao Zilv for me.
I believe His Majesty will understand.
Your Highness, where are you going?
Where should I go?
♫ The spring breeze brushes my face ♫
♫ Another year has passed ♫
[Luojing]
Changsheng, it's been three
years. How have you been?
Wan'er and I are doing well.
Wan'er gave birth to a boy.
Guangde and Jin'er both are
vying to marry their daughter to him.
I have to pick one carefully.
Now I will tell you about the
person you care about most.
His Highness vomited blood that day, but that was
the toxic blood that had accumulated in his body.
He was already fine.
[Lv Jing, Crown Prince]
But you left because you believed the rumor.
His Majesty originally intended to
pass the throne to him, but he refused.
To find you, he wandered around the country.
Where on earth did you go?
You've been through so much together.
It has long been proven that
the rumor is just nonsense.
The Lantern Festival is coming.
[To Liu Changsheng]
I hope you will come back soon to reunite with us.
[To Liu Changsheng]
[Fuyu]
[Peace and Prosperity]
Do you two want your fortune told?
Then you've found the right place.
As for the solution to this problem...
That's my old friend.
Come on, sir. One step forward.
Stretch out your right
hand to feel my turtle's back.
Come on, okay. Use some strength.
That's right.
Sir, I want my fortune told.
As long as you have money, I can
tell your fortune as much as you want.
Come.
Write down your birthday.
Come on, have your fortune told.
Have your fortune told.
All right.
Let me see.
Following...
Your Highness, I won't be able to make your money.
You still remember my birthday?
Is it so unforgettable?
It's surely one of a kind.
I don't know whether you're
a good fortuneteller or not.
Before, you said Yi'an and I were a good match.
But when I was staying with
him, he had been through a lot.
No, no.
Divination is just for people to seek comfort.
Don't miss a good man because of this.
Your Highness, it all depends on human effort.
Please take a look at this mask.
Let me see.
Is there a similar one?
Why don't you wear this? This looks good.
Wait.
Sorry.
