Looks like Feng Zhiwei
has deep affections for you. She's thinking of ways to be with you. But why isn't she coming out? Haven't we been waiting for a while? You know girls. She has to dress up carefully since
she's attending the banquet with her love. The longer it takes,
the more she likes His Highness. Look. Is that her? I pay respect to Prince Helian. What's the matter? Based on the look on your face, I guess
you don't like the way I'm dressed. Then I just won't go. I won't give you a hard time. I finally understand now. You have deep affections for me. You're not afraid of danger. You'd rather look this way
and be misunderstood to attend the banquet with me. I, Helian Zheng, really am so lucky. Therefore, the way you look now really is the most beautiful in the world. Impressive. Grand Secretary Yao's daughter,
Yao Yangci, is here. I pay respect to Noble Consort. I wish you good fortune and good health. You may rise. You're Grand Secretary Yao's daughter,
Yao Yangci? Come closer so I can look at you. You're a notably talented girl. I'm not that good. I don't dare accept
Noble Consort's compliments. Colonel Qiu Shangqi's daughter, Qiu Yuluo, is here. I pay respect to Noble Consort. I wish you good fortune and good health. You may rise. Thank you, Noble Consort. The daughter of Grand Master Xu Tianze, Xu Rumeng, is here. I pay respect to Lady Hua. You've become beautiful. Yuluo. Come and pay respect to Her Highness. I pay respect to Your Highness. I've heard about your exquisite beauty. Seeing you today, I'm really blown away. Are you Colonel Qiu's daughter? Then do you know someone named Wei Zhi? I don't know that person. May I ask Your Highness -who--
-It's fine. I have nothing to say to you then.
You can go there. You may rise. Thank you, Noble Consort. Colonel Qiu Shangqi's niece,
Feng Zhiwei, is here. I pay respect to Noble Consort. I wish you good fortune and good health. You're Colonel Qiu's niece? The way you look is really peculiar. Noble Consort is too kind. Not only do I look peculiar, my face can even
stop children from crying. What an interesting girl. Court Lady Chen. Give her a small ingot of gold. Yes, Your Highness. You may rise. Thank you, Noble Consort. Minister Zhou Shichang's daughter, Zhou Dongling, is here. You're Colonel Qiu's niece. Then do you know someone named Wei Zhi? Wei Zhi. Do you know him? Your Highness. That Wei Zhi is my cousin. -Really?
-Yes. Then tell me what kind of a person
your cousin is. Tell me. Hi, Duoer. You're too kind. I don't dare receive such courtesy. Duoer. You're with Noble Consort Chang. Your status is higher than ours. Duoer. What may I do for you? I just want to know
where Prince of Chu, Ning Yi, will sit during the banquet tonight. Don't worry. I'll look for a chance
to tell Noble Consort so that your seat will be close
to Prince of Chu. Then let me thank you now. How impetuous. It's you. You look hideous. How did you think of such an idea? Don't you feel humiliated? I'm starting to become curious. I'm curious as to how Helian Zheng reacted when he saw you. What's in your mouth? Who told him to keep bothering me? Nobody in the palace knows
Feng Zhiwei anyway. Helian Zheng should be the one humiliated. You said I sought revenge
for small grievances. You're no different. He's the great Prince of Jinshi. He admires you,
and this is how you treat him? Who would want to be admired
by someone who looks like him? How shall one look like to deserve this beauty I see in your face? Hua Gongmei pays respect to Prince of Chu. Qiu Yuluo pays respect to Prince of Chu. What was Your Highness talking about? You look happy. What's your answer? Lady Hua, Prince of Chu and I are comparing looks. I believe that Prince of Chu is not only more beautiful than me,
but most women. Do you agree with me, ladies? You're hideous, but you know how to talk.
It's music to the ears. As for your looks, you're hideous, but you're still much prettier than
those women with makeup on in the palace. Lady Hua, that Feng Zhiwei is very shameless. One time, Prince of Chu
came to Qiu Residence. That shameless Feng Zhiwei
tried to seduce him. My mother kicked her out. I can't believe she has the nerve
to attend the banquet. With a face like hers, how dare she covet Prince of Chu? How outrageous. You probably don't know, but she's being ugly on purpose. On purpose? Why would a woman want
to be ugly on purpose? I heard that she came to the palace
with Prince Helian of Jinshi. My guess is that she wanted to come see Prince of Chu,
but she doesn't like Prince Helian. So... I see she is quite cunning. Yuluo, tell me quickly. What is she good at? What could she be good at? She never even went to school
when she was young. Really? Nothing seems to have happened regarding the search at Yilan Palace. Do you know why? Your Majesty, today is your birthday. I'm sure that Noble Consort Chang didn't want to cause any trouble and make you worry on your big day. My birthday is an even better stage for them. I'm sure that soon, they'll get on stage and perform. Prince of Chu. What are you thinking about? Nothing. What's wrong with Prince of Chu? Isn't it his father's birthday today? He looks very distressed. How impudent of him. Today is his father's birthday, but also the day his mother died. No wonder. Your Highness, Ning Sheng often mentions Grand Secretary Yao's daughter,
Yao Yangci. They say she's the most talented woman
in Tiansheng. She is skilled in music, at Go,
writing, and painting. She's gentle and obedient.
She's among the best in Tiansheng. She would be a great match for Ning Sheng. What do you think, Your Majesty? The daughter of Grand Secretary Yao? Very well. Then, do you agree to let them marry? Wonderful. Father, I wish you health, peace,
and many more blissful years. I can't believe it. My beloved daughter dances so wonderfully. Thank you, Father. I couldn't think of any precious treasure
in this world Father hasn't seen before. After thinking about it, my only choice was to perform for you
and entertain you, Father. Very nice, Shaoning. I'm sure my brothers have also prepared
birthday gifts for you. I wonder what Ning Yi
has prepared for you, Father. You dance very well, Shaoning. Father, I've prepared an instrument
my mother used to play. I would like to use it to play some music for you. Will you allow it, Father? Thank you for your thoughtfulness. Noble Consort Chang, about what you just mentioned... Your Majesty, today is a wonderful day. Maybe we could make it even better. Please allow Ning Sheng to marry-- It's my birthday today. Having my son get married on this day... is a good idea. You're very wise, Noble Consort Chang. Thank you, Your Majesty. Ning Sheng, come thank your father. No need for that. I don't have enough children. Prince of Yan's wife died early. Prince of Chu and Ning Ji
have yet to marry. Ning Qi should have a second wife. Today, we have invited many noble ladies. We should find a suitable wife
for each prince. All five at once. What do you think, Noble Consort Chang? Five at once? Yes. That would be wonderful. I would never object
to your idea, Your Majesty. -Thank you, Father.
-Thank you, Father. You may rise. Thank you, Father. Ning Yi. Don't you think that Father's idea
may not be a good one? Father, I am not in the mood to find a wife today. Please forgive me. Today is Father's birthday. Having five marriages
is a way to celebrate. Yet Ning Yi refuses to cooperate. He's going against Father's wishes.
How disrespectful. Your Majesty, Princess Shaoning is right. It's Your Majesty's birthday today. Five marriages
would be an auspicious sign. If Prince of Chu does not wish
to find a wife, perhaps I could be the fifth. It can be considered Jinshi's kind gesture
to the Emperor of Tiansheng. Helian Zheng. How dare you! Prince Helian, you wish to find a wife as well? Your Majesty, actually, I already have a lady in mind. If you may grant my wish. Your Majesty, he's referring to Colonel Qiu's niece. Your Majesty,
you shouldn't grant his wish. Your Majesty, I have no talent.
I do not deserve to marry a prince. Please take a look at me. My hideous face would be an insult to Prince Helian. Father. I just... I just refused to find a wife today
because I don't have a lady in mind. Yet, it's Prince Helian's
first time in Tiansheng, but he has fallen for a hideous lady. That really impressed me. I suppose these things
are decided by fate. So please, Father, you should find us wives through a test. That way, we can see if the princes are destined to marry these noble ladies. Of course. Prince Helian and this peasant girl can join as well. Prince of Chu has an interesting idea. Let me think about it. What kind of question should I ask to determine your fates? Thank you, Father. Thank you, Your Majesty. Thank you, Your Majesty. Marriage first depends on your fate. You need a good opportunity
from the heavens. Second is the people. The two must have the same thoughts. I'll make the test about this then. His Majesty has decided that each Prince should write
one character on a sheet. The question is, "In this vast world, what is the foundation of a person?" All the ladies can pick
one of the characters. The prince who wrote the character shall be the husband the heavens bestow you. If the lady is able
to explain the character in the same way as the prince who wrote it, then they are truly made for each other. I, Hua Gongmei, am willing to go first. This is what Prince of Chu wrote. I don't know what this means. I've answered Father's question. Do you not understand? But you didn't answer it. Then it means we are not made for each other. Your Majesty, this sheet is blank. How am I supposed to understand
His Highness' thoughts? Ning Yi. Tell me. What do you mean? Father, I've answered your question. It's just she wasn't able to. Your Highness. Are you playing a joke on me? In my opinion, Prince of Chu isn't playing a joke on her, but on His Majesty. Noble Consort Chang is right. Father wants to give Ning Yi a wife,
yet he is finding excuses. You asked Father for a test,
yet you turned in a blank sheet. Today is Father's birthday,
yet you're going against him. Ning Yi, what are you trying to do? The more I look at the blank sheet, the more it looks like the one
used to pray for the dead. How dare you! Forgive me, Your Majesty, Noble Consort. I was just thinking, Prince of Chu actually has a great answer to the question. That's why I choked. How did he answer it?
He didn't write anything. It's a blank sheet. Because he didn't write anything and turned in a blank sheet, that's why it's the best answer. Then tell me, what does he mean? Your Majesty asked what the foundation of a person is. The foundation of music
is the absence of music. The foundation of an image
is the lack of an image. And the foundation of a person... It's just like this blank sheet. As they say, "There is no wisdom tree, nor a stand of a mirror bright. Since all is void,
where can the dust alight?" In this world,
if we can understand this principle, we will be able to cut out
happiness, sadness, anger, fury, and live together with nature. We become one with the world. I believe this is how Prince of Chu
answered Your Majesty's question. It's also a blessing for your birthday. Great. That's great. That's great. Ning Yi is full of wisdom indeed. This noble lady is also quick-witted. In comparison, the answer that I wrote earlier
is too childish. I also wish that Father will be able
to cut out happiness, sadness, anger, and fury. May Father live together in nature
and become one with the world. Happy Birthday, Your Majesty. Live together with nature. Become one with the world. You may rise. Thank you, Your Majesty. Wait. I wonder if Prince of Chu
and this lady in front of you share the same thoughts and opinions? Father. Please forgive me. I already told you before. I have no intention
of choosing a wife today. Even though this noble lady
is quick-witted, she looks... She looks hideous. So please wait for me to pay attention to other girls
going forward. All right. You're dismissed. Your Majesty. This time, let's see if Grand Secretary Yao's
daughter and a royal son are a match made in heaven. This was written by Prince of Yan. Your Majesty. It's the word "love." LOVE Monks and priests spend their lives alone, see through the world of mortals,
and finally attain nirvana. They appear not to have earthly love, yet they have the love for mankind, which is what they're pursuing
in their lives. They call that universal love. I think Prince of Yan is also not bothered
with mortal love. He probably wrote this word
so that through me, he can tell Your Majesty to view the citizens as his love so that the regime will live on forever. Father. What Grand Secretary Yao's daughter said
was exactly what I was thinking. From what I can see, the two of us
share the same thoughts and opinions. Please bless us. Your Majesty. I have a request.
I hope Your Majesty approves. Let me hear it. I hope you'll allow me
to select another sheet. What do you mean by that? How can you select another one
when it's destined by the heavens? Do you want to go against heaven's wishes and the rules of His Majesty? I don't dare. Regardless of which royal son's
sheet I choose, it won't change the fact
that my heavenly match is Prince of Yan. In that case, why do you need to do that? I'm just curious. I hope Your Majesty will grant my wish. I'm curious too. Go ahead. Thank you, Your Majesty. Read it. Your Majesty. It's also the word "love." Did someone dare trick and lie to me? Don't be angry, Your Majesty. I think maybe another royal son shares the same thoughts with his brother,
Ning Sheng, and wrote the same word. Ning Qi. What did you write? Your Majesty. Noble Consort Chang. I also wrote that word. Is that a coincidence? Your Majesty. I'm afraid it's hard to tell which one is Lady Yao's heavenly match. Is it Ning Sheng or Ning Qi? Since that's heaven's wish, I'm afraid I'm not fortunate enough
to marry into the royal family. Your Majesty, it's getting late. How about looking at the gifts
given by His Highnesses? Mother. Do you really believe -that Buddha exists?
-Of course. I've been a vegetarian
and worshiping Buddha all these years. How can I not believe that? All right. Then no matter what happens today, you just need to believe that Buddha will protect you. Don't be anxious and don't be afraid. And don't panic and say things you shouldn't. Ning Qi. You and I shouldn't take the risk. Just let me confess to your father. You and I are one. If you go back on your word, you and I will both be in trouble. Lady Wang and Prince of Wei may present their gifts
and wish His Majesty a happy birthday. Your Highness. -All set?
-Yes. I just don't understand. Why are you doing this? I'm just guessing. Remember. When you hear a lady cry in the palace,
you can start. It can't be too early or too late. Understand? Prince of Chu, Ning Yi,
is presenting his gift. Your officials and relatives
all sincerely pray for your long life
and the empire's prosperity. I wish Father a very long life. Prince of Chu presents Minhai's coin. Father. Lord of Minhai is really smart. The Minhai coin he privately made used fewer materials compared
to the Changxi coin we make. I'm presenting this Minhai coin so that Father can see and learn
the resource-saving way they made this. How impetuous. "Don't forget to mind
the dangers in safety. Safety is assured
when we mind the dangers." Your Majesty,
please investigate thoroughly. "Safety is assured
when we mind the dangers." -Zhao Yuan.
-Yes, Your Majesty. Keep it well on my behalf. Yes, Your Majesty. -You may rise.
-Thank you, Father. Yongshou Palace's Lady Wang and Prince of Wei, Ning Qi,
are presenting their gifts. Your Majesty, I wish you prosperity and a long life. All right. I'll live a long life. You'll also accompany me for a long time. You may rise. -Thank you, Your Majesty.
-Thank you, Father. GOLDEN BOX The golden box. Lady Wang. What is the meaning of this? Ziyin. Where did you get this? This is not the gift you prepared
for Father. Your Majesty, please forgive me. I just took the gift from Yongshou Palace. Maybe I took the wrong gift. Turns out you've already prepared
this golden box. Noble Consort. I really don't know where this came from and why it was in my palace. You don't know anything? How about Prince of Wei? Do you not know what happened, either? Noble Consort. This appears to be the golden box where Father kept
his imperial edict. Your Majesty. You let me handle the Imperial Harem
for over ten years. Now, someone made a fake golden box. This is very suspicious. Good thing heaven has blessed us,
and it was exposed during your birthday. Please investigate this thoroughly. I didn't do my job well. I'll accept your punishment. Prince of Wei, anything you want to say? I only have one thing to say, as always. Both rewards and punishments
are granted by the grace of the Emperor. As long as the name in the box
is who Father wants to be the heir, that's also who I want to be the heir. All I want is for you to believe that no matter when or what, Mother and I will always be loyal to you. I will always be the Ning Qi who is obedient to you. And Mother will always be Lady Wang,
who sees you as her whole world. Please understand that. Ning Qi. I agree with you wholeheartedly. As long as the golden box's content
is what Father wants, then it's also what I want. Now, this fake golden box was hidden in your mother's palace. Ning Qi. It's hard not to be suspicious. Do you want to do a switch
and steal the Emperor's position? No. Ning Qi didn't do anything. He doesn't know anything. "He doesn't know anything"? Then you planned it all by yourself? I... I didn't do anything. Please investigate thoroughly. Ning Qi. Let me give you some advice. Admit your fault to Father. If you can change your ways, I am sure Father will forgive you
and your mother. Your Majesty,
Ning Qi doesn't know anything. Your Majesty,
please investigate thoroughly. I've never seen this object before either. Your Majesty,
please investigate thoroughly. Lady Wang. Did you really not do anything? If you don't want anyone to know about it, don't do it. Prince of Chu. What do you mean? Could it be that you want to condone them? Which part of what I said made it sound like I'm condoning them? Which part of what I said
is not helping Noble Consort force Lady Wang to tell the truth? Didn't you get it? Your Majesty. Stealing the Emperor's position
is a grave crime in the regime. Please take both of them
to Zongzheng Temple to be prosecuted. Lady Wang, is this scene familiar to you? They find something in your palace
that doesn't belong to you. Then you committed the crime of treason. Yes. It's exactly the same
as what happened before. Lady Wang. Don't speak nonsense.
It will only add to your crime. What goes around comes around. You had it coming. The ghost from 18 years ago still remains. Do you want to repeat
your mistake, Lady Wang? Karma. It's karma. -Your Majesty.
-Mother. Remember what I told you. "No matter what happens today, Buddha will protect you." You didn't do anything. Father. I beg you to please detain Ziyin
and interrogate her carefully. Then we'll know who was truly behind this. Your Majesty. Lady Wang has already admitted
that she committed a crime. Please lock her up in Zongzheng Temple. I'm very familiar with Zongzheng Temple. I spent eight painful
and helpless years there. There's nothing there. Aside from the prison guards, I can only talk to the trees
and the birds outside. What exactly did you do? Are you willing to let Ning Qi
follow in my footsteps? He didn't do anything. -Ning Qi didn't do anything.
-No, he didn't. But what did you do? -Mother!
-My son is innocent! Mother! -What did you do?
-Heaven will protect you, Mother. -Your Majesty!
-Mother! -She's back.
-Yes. She's back. She's back. -She's back.
-Mother. You didn't do anything. Ning Qi. Buddha cannot protect me anymore. You didn't do anything, Mother. I'm the reason she died. Who did you cause to die? Speak. -I'm the reason she died.
-You didn't do anything. Lady Wang, tell us. You didn't do anything, Mother. Your Majesty! Your Majesty. It's all my fault. I committed a crime. Eighteen years ago... What about 18 years ago? What happened 18 years ago? It was I. -Your Majesty.
-Your Majesty. Call the imperial doctor! Call the imperial doctor! Your Highness, please stop. Your Highness. His Majesty needs to rest. Please go back and wait to be summoned. Father is sick. How could I not stay with him? Maybe he'll recover quickly if he sees me. -Move. I want to see Father.
-Your Highness. I'm just following orders. Please don't give me a hard time. I want to see who can stop me today. Your Highness. Your Highness, please stop. Your Highness. Father. Father. -Father.
-Shaoning, you're here. Father. Why are you sick? I've never seen you so weak before. You're scaring me. It's normal to grow old and die. I can't escape that even as an emperor. Father, don't say that. Now that you're here, I am feeling better already. Father. I was naughty before. I always made you mad. Starting today, I'll change. I just ask that you recover soon. Father. Promise me. I promise. Really? When have I lied to you? You've never lied to me. I believe you. You're more thoughtful than your brothers. All right. I'm tired. I want to rest. Would you go? No. I want to stay with you. Your Highness. The imperial doctor said
that His Majesty needs sufficient rest. Please go back for now. Father. Father. Shaoning. I'm fine. Father, I'll take my leave then. You betrayed me first. I asked you to look into the future
of the empire, and you lied to me. It shows you've never had real affections
for me all these years. Why did you give me your blood? Your Majesty,
you think you're extraordinary and can make the empire last forever. Why do you need me to tell the future? I have also fed Ning Yi this blood. This will save both of your lives. Long live Your Majesty. What should we do? -Prince of Chu.
-Prince of Chu. Chief Imperial Doctor. You look like you're at your wit's end. Could it be that His Majesty's
condition is troubling you? Your Highness. What's troubling us
is not His Majesty's condition, but His Majesty's refusal
to take medication. I'll go talk to Father. Your Highness. Please convince His Majesty
to take his medication on time. Prince of Chu. -It's good that you are here.
-Official Zhao. Are you also anxious because Father refuses
to take his medication? -Let me talk to him.
-Wait, Your Highness. Noble Consort and Prince of Yan
came by earlier. His Majesty is not in a very good mood. Your Highness came just in time. Please have a talk with His Majesty.
Maybe he'll feel better then. Prince of Yan and his mother must have come
to check on Father's health. Why is Father not in a good mood? His Majesty didn't ask for them to come. Prince of Chu, let me just say something. "Filial piety" matters most to people who are sick. Prince of Yan, on the other hand,
can be a bit impatient. I understand. Is Ning Yi here? Ask him to come in. Ning Yi pays respect to Father. Father. Why aren't you taking care of yourself? Please stop concealing illness
and avoiding treatment. Put it aside for now. I'll drink it later. Tell me first. How has the Royal Court been
these past two days? You may go. Father. Drink it while it's hot. It won't be effective if it gets cold. Nothing much is happening. I'll tell you after you drink this. No. It's too bitter. Father. You speak like a child. I'll taste it for you, and see if it's as bitter as you say. Never mind. I'm tired of pretending to be sick anyway. Ning Yi, come. Play Go with me. -Play Go with me.
-Father. Official Zhao can play with you. You and Official Zhao have been having fun with this ruse. I understand now. I'll take my leave. Father. I'll take my leave. Look at him. He found out the truth and got mad. Your Majesty. Couldn't you see from that how filial Prince of Chu is? Ning Sheng. I haven't been feeling well lately, so I asked Imperial Doctor Zhang
to check on me and sought some information from him. Lady Wang and her son
have already seen His Majesty. Ning Yi also went to see His Majesty. Seeing the way things are, the situation is unfavorable to us. Mother. It's too soon to say that. I won't just sit around and do nothing. Mother. Don't worry about it. I'm here. I won't take this lying down. You think you're the only one? Your Father is sick. For all my life, I was only considered as a concubine. So the one who's going to be buried
in the royal tomb with your father is the late Empress, and not me. Don't worry, Mother. I won't let you experience
such unfair treatment. I'll fulfill your wishes. Mother shall be Tiansheng's Empress Dowager. Ning Sheng. You're my only hope. After experiencing these things,
I finally understand. As long as we're together,
other things don't matter. I understand what you mean. But as long as that golden box
has Ning Yi's name in it, someday, when Ning Yi becomes an emperor,
not only are you and I doomed, the whole Chang clan is doomed. What are you planning to do? I asked to see Imperial Doctor Zhang. He's responsible for Father's medication. He may be of great help to us. -Ning Sheng.
-Mother. We can't hesitate now. We must take the risk. As long as Father's condition is unclear, I can do something about that golden box. -I pay respect to Prince of Yan.
-There's no need for courtesy. Did Your Highness ask me to come here
because of Noble Consort's condition? No. I have a condition that requires your treatment. Your Highness. You mean... Imperial Doctor Zhang. I'll just cut to the chase. Imperial Doctor Zhang, you've been in the royal infirmary
since the empire began. Your skills are excellent. You're good at acupuncture. There's nothing you can't heal. It's a shame that you're only
in charge of Father's medication with your brilliant medical skills because the Chief Imperial Doctor is your superior. Am I right? Why don't you replace him? I can help you. Your Highness. I don't dare think about it. Why not? Of course, you may refuse me. But my men should already be at your residence now. Your Highness, please spare me. Imperial Doctor Zhang. You may rise. Rise to the top,
or let your family die with you. You can choose only one. Your Highness. What do you need me to do? Father's medical records
are with the Chief Imperial Doctor. I want to see them. What's the matter? I dreamed that I was about to die. It's the opposite. -What?
-Dreams are the opposite of reality. Director Wei. The head of the Yan family sent a letter. Shaoning. Is Father in really bad health? Father's room -is filled with the smell of ginseng soup.
-Ginseng soup? -Then isn't Father...
-Ning Sheng. I don't want to go to Qingming anymore. -If something happens to Father--
-Shaoning. You have to go to Qingming all the more because Father isn't well. Think about it. Uncle is still ambitious. If the golden box contains someone else's name, Tiansheng will fall into chaos. I just hope that the golden box
doesn't contain Ning Yi's name. Don't worry. I won't let him get his way. If the golden box
has Ning Yi's name in it, you and I are both going to die. Once Ning Sheng has looked inside the box,
it will be sealed with wax. Nobody will know. The head of the Yan family says handling
the long-haired sheep is not hard. It's just that the Ship Services Division
handles the shipping in Minhai, so we can do it
only if an order is issued to Minhai. As you have mentioned, Huaishi, His Majesty is sick now, so it's hard to get an order issued. He'll be well when something good happens. Nanyi usually gets it right. Director Wei, Prince of Yan
and Princess Shaoning are here. Prince of Yan. Princess Shaoning. Director Wei, my sister
has never followed rules. Father asked me to bring her back
so that you can instill discipline in her. I thank you on Father's behalf. I'm not worthy -of Your Highness' words.
-Director Wei, you may rise. Forgive me, Your Highness. My old wound is acting up again. Wei Zhi, do you need the imperial doctor? Shaoning. I'll handle it. Let Director Wei rest. I'll bring you to your study room. Thank you, Your Highnesses. -Let's go.
-Wei Zhi, I'll check on you later. He seems to have come with ill intentions. Looks like my old wound won't be healed anytime soon. Your Highness. Your Highness. You should go to the palace
to take care of the sick. If you don't act like a filial son now, when would you? My father is truly unprecedented. He pretends to be sick to avoid
addressing my mother's case. I think that's a good move
on your father's part. With him feigning sickness,
Prince of Yan's head is starting to ache. Why was I born into the royal family? Even the father-and-son relationship
is being used in a scheme. Your Highness. You still have me. I won't ever scheme against you. I'd never scheme against my own children. Your own children? Where are they? You should find a mother
for your children first, right? Ziyan. When we were in Yilan Palace,
Feng Zhiwei asked me why I always used her
and schemed against her. How did you answer her? I originally thought I'd never scheme against her. But now... Maybe it runs in the Ning family's blood. Your Highness. Look at me. Look at me. You've fallen for her. Do you plan to marry her? I can't even describe our relationship. Let's not talk about the future yet. You don't need to describe it.
Let me tell you now. Both of you are a bad match.
