I've sent the eunuch in charge
to report back to Hanzhang Palace

that you happened to see
Princess Yuexi faint,

and placed her in an outer hall
near your residence.

The physician said it's
just a cold and not serious,

so Noble Consort Sun doesn't need to worry.

Alright.

Hanzhang Palace has been quite restless.

It's time to give them a lesson.

[Dedication and Wisdom]

Miss, do you still remember
what happened yesterday?

Yesterday?

We're taking off!

I want to fly higher.

Shall we sleep?

Yesterday...

It's over, it's over.

I took the drug that a female
lead normally takes.

I'm so embarrassing.

You've remembered now?

Let this world be destroyed.

Let the male and female leads
hurry up and k*ll me.

It's all Xiao Yue'er's fault.

She gave me such an embarrassing drug.

Miss, Miss, where are you going?

You're not dressed yet, Miss.

[Dedication and Wisdom]

Old man.

Old man, your daughter's been bullied.

Just say what you're going to do.

Who dares to bully you?

I haven't asked you.

How did you leave standing
but return lying down?

If it weren't for
the guards and the physician

repeatedly assuring that you only have a cold,

I thought you were going to die.

What cold? The Fourth Princess

gave me something to drink.

And then this happened.

They've gone too far!

Exactly.

But old man, you can't

take a sword and cut
down the Hanzhang Palace.

Be careful, or you'll ruin your health.

Although we can't cut down
the Hanzhang Palace,

I can still manage

to make those two restless.

Good.

Let them be restless.

I have a report to make.

Speak.

The Fourth Princess held a banquet
at Wei Garden and cost a great deal.

[Emperor Shaoyuan]
And ten days ago,

she took the descendants
of the Sun family on an outing.

For the convenience of enjoyment,

she ignored the desperate pleas of the farmers

and trampled over more than


I also have a matter to report.

Sun Wei, sold offices and titles,
making a profit of ten thousand.

This is the account list I obtained.

He's just a sixth-rank official.

By selling offices
and evaluations of appointments,

he's made ten thousand liang.

This could rival the annual
tax revenue of some small counties.

How bold!

Is Sun Wei

from your Sun family?

[Minister Sun]

He is a distant relative of my family.

Although he is a distant relative,

anyone with eyes can see

these branches of the Sun family

all rely on Noble Consort Sun
and Minister Sun

to secure some positions and titles.

Sun Wei sold offices and titles.

He will be stripped of his office
and exiled to Yaozhou.

Also, those who engage in bribery
will be investigated.

Originally, the Fourth Princess's matter
wasn't that serious.

Who would have thought that
Sun Wei would be exposed?

Now, His Majesty is troubled by this

and Noble Consort Sun
is also caught in the scandal.

Truly, Heaven has opened its eyes.

It's like a timely rain has fallen.

The Sun family has been too reckless lately

and annoyed so many people.

Father, you're a man of your word.

Noble Consort Sun and the Fourth Princess

are going to have a rough time.

By the way,

did you go thank the Crown Prince?

Although the Crown Prince has no real power,
he is still the heir to the throne.

And he helped you.

The proper etiquette should be observed.

What help did he give me?

Old man, I didn't do anything.

Why are you so anxious?

The Crown Prince saw that you were drugged
and kindly took you back.

Yes, yes, yes, I should
definitely thank him for this.

Then what are you waiting for? Go!

Now?

Of course. We always
return the favors immediately.

Hurry up, and come back early.

[Dedication and Wisdom]

You're going like this?

I'm really sorry about last time.

Which matter are you referring to?

[Why he has to bring this up?]

Is it that you held on to me

or that you took advantage of me
under the influence of the drug?

Don't humiliate me like this.

Are you doing this on purpose?

It was the effect of the drug,
you don't need to mind that.

But I still need to thank you
for helping me out.

Your Grace, why don't you

move here?

Isn't that be a bit too obvious?

Going to your residence every day
is like announcing to the world

that we have a relationship.

What relationship?

It's just like

we have underhand secret dealings.

No.

We can have Huailiu drive the carriage

to the back courtyard then switch
to another carriage.

There's a passage
straight to the inner hall.

It won't attract attention.

The inner hall is full of my people,
you need not worry.

It won't be too troublesome, will it?

- Greetings, Your Highness.
- Greetings, Your Highness.

These two are chefs I brought from Jiangnan.

The best chefs in the capital
have all learned from them.

The daily necessities in the inner hall

are definitely more exquisite
than those in the back courtyard.

The back courtyard is just
a temporary resting place, also...

No need to say more, I agree.

It takes more than a few days to heal.

No matter how comfortable
I make it, it's still just a room.

I worry that you might
feel bored staying there.

You're very thoughtful.
I just need some good food and drink.

But does this count as moving in?

Sort of, but not exactly.

We're here anyway.

Your Highness, would you like
to lie down for a while?

Now? Lie down?

Don't worry, treatment is free today.

Is this bed comfortable?

Then let's talk about something serious.

It will be the Longevity Festival
in just a few days.

What? Is there some trouble again?

I got a tip-off

that Xiao Xu has been frequently
corresponding with the post station.

I don't know which envoy
he's in contact with.

No matter which country it is,
we'll know when he pulls this trick.

However, this is confidential.

Why are you telling me this?

I thought we were allies.

That's right.

Don't expect me
to come up with plans for you

or do anything personally.

At most, I'll use my father's power

to give you a little help
in critical moments.

I don't want you to do anything for me.

I'm just sharing my intelligence with you.

Oh.

Go to sleep now.

I'll have to go home
for dinner in four hours.

The old man is watching me closely.

Everyone, come quickly!

- Let me go. - Everyone come and judge.

This foreign man has been

attempting improper actions
toward me in broad daylight.

Everyone, come quickly!

Don't leave.

Everyone, come quickly!

It's him.

He was attempting
improper actions toward me.

Everyone, come quickly!

Let's go see.

Go, go, go.

- Don't leave. - Let go.

Everyone, come quickly.

Let go, I didn't do it.

Please come and help me.

This foreign man is going too far.

Please help me say something.

You're lying. I didn't touch you.

I went out today to shop.

Who would have thought this foreign man

would be attracted to me

and tried to do

improper things to me?

You're talking nonsense.

Please, help me.

Why not report this to officials?
I'm not the chief magistrate.

I can't have this man arrested.

He's a foreigner.

The authorities may not
dare to deal with him.

But luckily, I'm fine now.

I just want him to compensate me with money.

If you're trying to use me as a pawn,

that's unlikely to work.

No, you misunderstand.

I'm not.

Smells so good.

If you don't tell the truth now,

I'll send someone to the Imperial Office of Music
to check your household registration.

Mei, go to the Imperial Office of Music.

Yes.

No.

He didn't as*ault me.

I saw he was a foreigner,
so I came up with this idea to make money.

I won't do it again, please show mercy.

She's falsely accusing you.

Whether to report it
to the authorities is up to you.

I won't argue with such women.

Thank you, sir. You are kind, thank you.

Let's go.

- What a waste of time. - Let's go.

Miss, I am He Louche.

Thank you for helping me out.

May I have your name
to go thank you properly in person?

Isn't "He" a royal surname in Beiqiong?

It was just a small favor,
no need to mention it.

I wonder how you knew

that woman was falsely accusing me.

No decent woman,

after being assaulted, would
instinctively leave her shoulder exposed

instead of clutching her clothes tightly,
fearing that others might not notice.

And the perfume she's wearing

is distributed and prepared
by the Imperial Office of Music.

The women in brothels

all use that perfume.

That's impressive.

Then, may I ask

how do you know about this perfume?

Our young lady

has visited all the brothels in Yizhou,

so of course...

I've just smelled it.

But still, thank you.

Although you are reluctant
to tell me your name,

if you ever need

anything from me, just send someone
to the post station to inform me.

I will do my best.

No need to worry about such small matters.

See you.

Master.

Master, don't worry.

I won' let such lowly people

to enter Jiqing Workshop again.

From today on, you will
personally escort Princess Yuexi home.

Don't let her get off the carriage easily.

Yes.
