♪ Our joyous time in music ♪ [Unique Lady 2] [Episode 18] I will take care of Miss. Your Highness, I’m going to pack things up. Let Yu do it. Xi Que, take a rest early. Yes, Miss. Yes, Consort. Then… What’s your plan now? I’m afraid Qi Yu is also involved in it.
Far from the Palace, the Royal Ancestral Temple is a good place for easy escape and transfer. It’s a good chance for them to take action. But it’s also our best chance to rescue His Majesty. I do not care. You promised to never leave me behind again. You must come back safely. Jing,
I still owe you a wedding. You still owe me a child. How could I let anything bad happen to myself? You come so late. Aren’t you afraid of being seen by others? She sent us away. No problem. I’ve made things ready for the Sacrificial Offering Ceremony. Master, please rest assured. Good.
I’ve been waiting for so long. At last I’m about to get what I want. I can’t wait anymore. But what worries me is that you should make any mistakes because of your young master. It was you who saved me at my worst. Of course I know who to serve.
Even if she’s very kind to me, I will never betray you. I believe, you will definitely get what you want. Zhong Wu Mei. Eunuch Su, where’s His Majesty? His Majesty is sick today. The little Prince stays with him in the Palace. The Sacrificial Offering Ceremony today
Will be presided over by me on his behalf. It’s the Sacrificial Offering Ceremony today. We have to discuss with His Majesty about designating a crown prince, but… Since His Majesty sent Eunuch Su to come and preside over it, he must be indisposed. We should follow the order.
What Prince Jing Yuan said is right. [Royal Brother didn’t show up.] [It seems that Jin Chen has taken precautions.] [The good news is that I’ve told Zhang Ji to divide the force into two teams,] [and I’ve sent people to the secret passage.] [Today,] [I’m afraid there will be a fierce battle.]
I wonder if you’ve heard any rumors lately about the mystery of the birth of Prince Yuan Zheng? How about we make it clear at the ceremony? Facing the heavens and earth, facing the ancestors, let’s make a fair judgement. What do you think? I agree. I agree. Yes, Brother.
With the heavens above, the earth below, whoever is malicious will be revealed. His Majesty is indisposed. Now it’s urgent to designate a crown prince. You are the only biological brother of His Majesty. If there’s any falsity in your blood or identity, the world would descend into chaos. Prince Jing Yuan,
What evidence do you have to prove that I have no royal blood? How dare you bring the rumors from the street to the Royal Ancestral Temple? Besides, don’t you smell a rat in this case? Why do the rumors appear at this very moment? Really? But as far as I know,
The rumor is nothing new. It was there more than twenty years ago. Wu Mei, I know Royal Brother has always been protective of you, forbidding people to mention it. But it’s urgent to designate a crown prince. Now rumors are spreading all over. It concerns the security of Sheng Jing.
If your identity is false, how can we hand Sheng Jing over to you? How can everyone here submit to you? -Yes. -Yes, Prince Jing Yuan is right. It’s about the royal blood. Then what should I do to clear up our chancellors’ doubts? Prince Jing Yuan, do you have any good suggestions?
According to the dossiers, the crystal bead guarding the royal family of Sheng Jing -only shines in the hands of the members… -[I knew it.] of the Zhong family. How about we let him take out the crystal bead to see if he can initiate it. That way, you may prove your identity, don’t you?
The crystal bead is the secret of Tian Yi Clique. At this moment, shouldn’t I have a blood test with Royal Brother to prove it? What Prince Yuan Zheng said is absolutely right. But the ceremony has always been presided over by His Majesty in person. But now His Majesty is unable to attend.
It seems that he’s not simply indisposed. Eunuch Su. Where is His Majesty now? I… His Majesty… I’m afraid His Majesty has already been forced to abdicate. -What? -It’s… Why did Prince Jing Yuan say so? As far as I know, Prince Yuan Zheng secretly met His Majesty yesterday.
Was he trying to hinder the designation of the crown prince? It’s hard to say. Jin Chen, how dare you bite back? Officer Liu. Yes. You have assisted the late emperor for years. Have you heard anything about the birth of Prince Yuan Zheng? Well…
The rumor that the late imperial concubine got pregnant on a tour was indeed known to all in the Palace. But the truth couldn’t be verified. None of the chancellors here today has ever witnessed the birth of Prince. Indeed. None of us has ever witnessed. How to verify it? Everyone,
Sheng Jing can’t be without an emperor for a day. Prince Yuan Zheng, don’t blame us for being rude if you don’t present His Majesty. Yes, he’s right. How dare he! Prince Yuan Zheng, what do you want by kidnapping His Majesty? Where is His Majesty? We need to see His Majesty.
-Yes, let us see His Majesty. -Let us see His Majesty. -Present His Majesty! -Present His Majesty! Let us see His Majesty. Since Royal Brother can’t come in person, if we can prove that Prince Yuan Zheng’s blood blends with mine, will it suffice to clear your doubts? Who are you?
How dare you break into the Sacrificial Offering Ceremony! Who are you? Who do you think I am? -This is… -Is this? Is she Princess Royal who remained unseen? Princess Royal? Princess Chang Yuan. It’s Princess Chang Yuan! Greet Princess Chang Yuan. Long live Princess Chang Yuan. Long live Princess Chang Yuan.
If it can be shown that Prince Yuan Zheng’s blood blends with Princess Royal’s, it indeed proves the identity of Prince Yuan Zheng. -Miss. -Have you heard from Prince? Zhang Ji said Prince Jing Yuan might challenge Prince for his birth in front of everyone. I knew he would definitely do that.
Consort, since it’s about kinship, can we use the blood test to identify blood ties? Yes. They liked to use this method in ancient times. But His Majesty is not there. How to identify blood ties? We may look for Princess Zi Yun, who has the same royal blood.
We only need to bring her to the Royal Ancestral Temple and do a blood test, and then we can prove the identity of Prince. Good idea. It happened that Zi Yun wrote me a letter a few days ago, saying that she had got news about Hua Hua.
And she said she’d arrive at Xijiao Hotel in the city today. I think she’s already there now. -I’ll go for her. -Sister-in-law. Why are you here? It’s Yu. She came to me early this morning. Yu, you’re really helpful. Prince Jing Yuan, don’t worry. Didn’t you suggest it?
Then let’s do it according to the procedure. The ceremony has to be held as scheduled. Am I right? Fine. Let’s do what Consort said. Please ask your servant to fetch a basin of water. Let’s do the blood test. Xi Que. Prince Yuan Zheng, Princess Royal, please. -Blended. -Blended. That’s right, blended!
It seems to be true. Don’t rush, everyone. What’s going on? Blended again. What’s going on? Girl, could it be that you did something to the water? I took the water from the well and brought it over here. I never did anything to the water. Someone has added alum to the water.
It’s a lie. It seems that someone did it on purpose. Come on, frisk. Stop. A frisk in public? I’m afraid it’s not appropriate. You master and servant are trying to cover it for him. Do you acquiesce to Zhong Wu Mei’s identity? Nonsense! Miss, it’s really not me.
Even if I’m worried about Prince being questioned, I would never add anything to the water. Besides, I don’t know what alum is. You suggested using drops of blood to identify blood ties. Now you added alum. Are you trying to cover it up? Xi Que is like a sister to me.
She’s also loyal to the Zhong family. Get up. Even if she wants to help me, she’ll never do such a thing. How could you know something like alum? Miss… But someone else knows. The one who added alum to the water in advance to frame us is Yu. I…
I’ve never touched that basin of water. Who brought the basin of water here was Miss Xi Que. Hurry to report the source of this basin of water to the chancellors. I did fetch the water by myself. But on the way, I planned to fetch it from the nearest west side hall,
But Yu suggested I fetch water from the east side hall. From beginning to end, I’m the only one who’s touched the water. Is that right, Yu? Yes. I asked the guards. They said all servants fetched water from the west side hall. I was afraid that the sediment in the water
Would affect the result of the test. So I suggested Xi Que go to the east side hall. What a coincidence. You suggested yesterday that we use the method to identify blood ties and clear up the doubts on Prince. Today, you asked Xi Que to go to another well
Instead of the nearest well for water. How do you explain it? Consort, even so, you can’t accuse me of adding the alum. Beside, lately, haven’t you and Prince both suspected that Xi Que had been colluding with enemies? -Does it have anything to do with me? -Me? Colluding with enemies?
The fact that Prince and I suspected Xi Que, no one knows about it except Zhang Ji. How did you know? I… The one who misled us to believe that Xi Que was the traitor is you. That day, Xi Que did send a letter. But it was a letter to her cousin,
Telling him to come to Sheng Jing and pick up silver taels. Zhang Ji has made it clear. You wrote to Xi Que to misinform her that her father was seriously ill. Then you instructed Xi Que to write back and send money home, and you took the envelope
And changed the content into something written in Qi Yu characters. What a trick. Xi Que. Xi Que took money from the accountant, but the accountant of the Mansion only issues silver taels, never silver tickets. But you said Xi Que asked you to send silver tickets for her. Yu, you are always careful.
Why didn’t you notice the loopholes in it? Consort, I just believed in Xi Que too much and didn’t think about it. What if Xi Que did get silver tickets from others? That’s impossible. Xi Que doesn’t like to use silver tickets because she feels insecure. Why can’t I put it in?
Xi Que, what are you doing? Store my silver away. Why don’t you exchange it for silver tickets? Doesn’t it take up too much space? Miss, you don’t get it. The silver is a real object. You feel the weight. But the silver ticket is just a piece of paper. What if it gets burned
Or immersed in water? It’ll be ruined. I don’t want that. According to common sense, that she got the silver taels in one moment, and said she was going to send out silver tickets in the next. To fool herself. So,
The reason why you said Xi Que had asked you to send the silver ticket was obviously to validate the envelope. You made it up in a hurry, didn’t you? Consort, these are all your speculations. You have no evidence. Besides, why did I do it? To win my trust was your purpose.
To frame Xi Que was also your purpose. Of course, your ultimate purpose was to help the one behind you to achieve the conspiracy of blood testing with alum. Consort, it was you who accidentally saved me in Nan Yan. I don’t know why you doubt me like this.
You don’t know when I began to suspect you? Princess has the answer. How did you know I had a meal with Liu Xiu Wen? Why did you think I had an affair with him? I happened to be walking in the Mansion that day. Suddenly, I saw Yu in a cloak
Go out in a hurry. I was driven by curiosity to follow her and I saw you two. Liu Xiu Wen and I were just having a meal. We were being honest and open, and yet you dressed like that. Obviously, you were trying to attract attention, so that Zi Yun would see us,
And we would start quarreling. Later on, there was a traitor in the Mansion. In a corner of Jiang’s private kitchen, the footprint of Xi Que was found. It was also your deed, wasn’t it? As ordered by Consort, I followed Miss Yu secretly all the time. Until that day,
I saw Miss Yu leap out of the Mansion using her flying skill. She cast many things into a well near the Royal Ancestral Temple. The reason why you dared to go out was that you believed all our doubts had been focused on Xi Que. But you forgot that “justice has long arms”.
The careless will expose himself sooner or later. You forgot as well that there is not only doubt between people, but also trust and affection. Although all findings pointed to Xi Que, I’ve never distrusted her from beginning to end. Miss… Yu, what else do you want to say? Miss…
I was really worried about Prince, and worried that His Majesty would punish you. That’s all that I could do. I’m really innocent. Even now, the girl is still arguing. It seems that if we don’t lock you up, it will be hard for us to know who’s behind you.
Come on. Lock this girl up. Wait! Eunuch Su, why do you need torture? The one behind her is obvious enough. He is Prince Jing Yuan, Jin Chen. This… Prince Yuan Zheng, you are still under suspicion. Now you bite back? We saved Yu in Nan Yan. Her identity has been suspicious from the beginning.
I asked Zhang Ji to investigate it a few days ago. The paper she used in her forged letter is only available in your Jing Yuan Mansion. In the beginning, I suspected she was a spy colluding with Qi Yu. So I kept an eye on her. But since she entered the Royal Ancestral Temple,
She’s been more or less watching you. Speak. Who are you? Why did you slander me? You murdered my parents. I’ll kill you. Yu. Yu. Yu. Why are you so silly? Yu grew up in Qi Yu. My parents were both killed by the Jin clan from Sheng Jing. I wanted to avenge my parents.
But I didn’t have the chance to get close to the royal family. When I met Prince and Consort in Nan Yan, I knew you were distinguished guests from Sheng Jing. You took me in. I saw hope. But now, I can’t go against God’s plan.
I failed to kill my enemy with my own hands. Consort, you are my savior. I have another crucial savior in my life. It’s just too late. I’m willing to express my gratitude by my death. You silly girl. Why are you so silly? I know I’m guilty.
I have to repay your kindness in the next life. [Yu, I’ll never forget you as my loyal servant.] [Rest in peace.] I love you. Yu. How touching. Consort, you are so smart and witty to see through the traitor around you step by step. That’s remarkable. But I didn’t expect
That the servant by your side would turn out to be a traitor from Qi Yu. Alright, let it go. Let’s talk about the identification of blood ties. Since the blood test can be false, then the identity of Princess Royal, can it be false, too? Nonsense! This is the crystal bead, the treasure
That can only be initiated by the members of the Zhong family. With this, isn’t it enough to prove my identity? Who knows if the bead is real or not? Why don’t we have a test as well? Fine. I will initiate it in front of everyone now
To prove the identity of both of us. Zi Yun! No! Stop it! [Do it.] [When the bead goes up in the air,] [it will be easy to grab.] Zi Yun! Wait! You can’t do it. Long live Your Majesty. Your Majesty. I can prove the identity of Zi Yun and Wu Mei.
Why bother with the crystal bead? Chen, we meet again. Master, you are here. Master? [Hua Hua?] The Patriarch of Tian Yi Clique and His Majesty of Sheng Jing were old friends. So Tian Yi Clique has protected Sheng Jing for hundreds of years. As the Elder Cang Jian,
I have to fulfill our promise to protect Sheng Jing. Chen, your men have been taken down by the imperial guards under Wu Mei. I suggest you give up further struggling. Royal Brother, since you insist on protecting Zhong Wu Mei, I dare not say anything. Nonsense! If it weren’t for Elder Cang Jian
And the imperial guards who rescued me, you would have ruled over the land. Prince Jing Yuan imprisoned me in the secret passage of the Palace. He’s unforgivable for treason! Zhang Ji! Royal Brother. Zi Yun, not seen over ten years, you’ve grown taller. Sure, not seen for so many years,
I heard that you’ve been ill recently. You need more rest. Okay, I’ll do what you say. Consort of Prince Yuan Zheng, I heard again that you solved the case by yourself. Every time, you worked with Wu Mei at the critical moment and resolved my great concerns. Wu Mei, it’s your blessing.
Take good care of Jing from now on. [Of course, I’m the heroine.] Thank you for your appreciation, Your Majesty. Royal Brother, I will definitely love Jing more. By the way, this time, not only the imperial guards under Wu Mei saved me, but also Elder Hua. Thank you. Master, you are so handsome.
I mean, thank you for saving Royal Brother. It is the duty of Tian Yi Clique to protect Sheng Jing. You don’t have to thank me. Hua… Elder Hua, may I ask how did you rescue His Majesty? The stone pillars in the secret passage
Were built by Tian Yi Clique for the Zhong family in Sheng Jing. Jin Chen locked His Majesty up in the secret passage. And yet it gave His Majesty a chance to ask for help. I see. It’s finally over now. Eunuch Su, handle the matter today properly. Yes.
Wu Mei has to be responsible for the government in the future. Also, you have to assist the little Prince in his maturation. As you wish, Royal Brother. Alert! Someone broke in to rescue Prince Jing Yuan! Elder Hua, protect Royal Brother. Jing, are you okay? I’m fine. Jing, long time no see.
Are you really Hua Hua? As I said, whenever you are in danger, I’m here for you. Great! You are still alive. So it was you who saved me in the market in Sheng Jing, right? But… what happened to your face? It’s a long story. To wake me up,
The Head fed me the Reviving Pellet. It has magical powers, but it also changes one’s looks. But that’s fine. It’s more convenient for me to act. I’m sorry, Jing. I didn’t have a chance to tell you about it. Why did you say sorry? I’m so happy that you are alive. Hua Hua,
You’ve no idea how terrible I felt. At that time, for me, you… I don’t know if I should call you Hua Hua or Senior. It doesn’t matter. You only have to remember that I will protect you as I did wherever I am. For so many times,
I didn’t recognize you when you were around. It’s great that you are back now. Hua Hua, as long as you are here, I feel safe. Jing. Does Zhong Wu Mei treat you well? He treats me very well. That’s good. Elder Hua has repeatedly helped my Zhong family. I feel really grateful.
Prince Yuan Zheng, you’re welcome. Protecting Sheng Jing has always been the duty of our Tian Yi Clique. Last time when Bei Yu used poison, if it weren’t for Elder Hua’s reminder in advance, probably I couldn’t have realized it until now. Hua Hua also informed you that Wen Ru Yu poisoned you? Hua Hua?
Yes. He is actually the Hua Hua who I often mentioned to you. Yes, he is indeed Hua Hua… Do you remember anything? Savage. Rogue. Not as good as a finger of Hua Hua. Zhang Ji. After returning home, get rid of all the flowers (Hua) in the backyard! Also,
Throw away all the cosmos Royal Brother sent over a few days ago! Poor little flowers in the backyard. King of Jealousy, the sign of disaster. Consort, what are you talking about? And on the day of Beauty Contest at Wen Xiang Lou,
It was Hua Hua who saved me and brought me to the bamboo hut. The next day, someone broke in and said -I was dating a man. -Consort. And you also said… Stop it. ♪ Snow in winter ♪ ♪ So pure and white ♪ ♪ It fell all night ♪
