Lan Ling Wang
[Prince of Lan Ling]
[Episode 19]
You're back!
What is it?
Sweet potatoes.
You asked me to come back to start the fire
but all you bought was sweet potatoes?
There's more.
Chicken drumstick!
This is better! I like it!
I didn't want to spend too much money
but since you haven't had any meat for a few days
that's why I bought this for you.
Have some.
Yummy?
Have another bite.
But I still prefer sweet potatoes.
You have the drumstick.
Not bad.
Xue Wu, thank you.
Who's Xue Wu?
Here, I'm Brainy
and you're Dorky.
Dorky.
Are you being concerned or worried by anything lately?
No.
Why would I be worried with such a peaceful life here?
You better tell me the truth.
Didn't you say husband and wife should share all joy and sorrow?
So why didn't you tell me about our people wanting to move to Zhou state
because of excessive taxes?
Since we'll soon be getting married
I didn't want you to worry about such things.
In their hearts, I'm the divine sorceress.
I'm a very strong person.
Are you that strong?
You sure are.
I mean it.
Since I've decided to marry you
so I should protect you
as well as all our people.
Let's work together, okay?
Thank you.
I'm certainly extremely lucky
to have a wife like you.
Since I'm marrying you
I'll have no choice but to become a princess consort.
I think you already have all the qualities for becoming a good princess consort.
Then...
why don't we go back to your manor tomorrow?
Thank you for taking me out.
But I've already decided to become a good princess consort.
As for those maids and their strict rules
I'm not scared of them.
Bring it on!
No, please don't change yourself.
I like you as you are
so I don't want you to change anything.
You're the best Mrs. Dorky in my heart.
What Mrs. Dorky?
All right, let's go back.
I guarantee that after we go back
you'll no longer see those maids from Ministry of Rites.
Why?
Because before I left, I said to Fifth Brother
that no matter what he does
no matter what trick he uses
even if he had to turn them all into his concubines
he must not let me see them when I go back.
How can you do that?
Prince of An De already has too many concubines.
My dear Princess Consort.
I think once every year
we should find some time to come here and enjoy our lives as Dorky and Brainy.
If we can do that
then marrying you would be the best decision that I've ever made.
Zheng Er, do you know why I want you to join the princess consort selection?
This separation curse will ruin the fate between Gao Chang Gong and Yang Xue Wu.
Then he'd only be in love with you.
Fourth Prince likes you very much.
Take good care of him.
This will cost Fourth Prince his life!
It's the queen's idea to hide the truth from you.
You'll be the most suitable princess consort.
This needle will save his life.
You can run away.
I'll tell you how.
Sir, someone's running away!
How stupid!
How could she believe them so easily?
I heard she even gave them an expensive golden box.
Her stupidity's got us into trouble.
It's only right that she dies.
Hurry, keep working!
Hurry!
You, hurry up!
Keep working!
Quickly!
Hurry!
Move it!
Go over there, hurry!
Keep working!
Tie these bitches onto the stand
and let this scapegoat come down.
Yes!
Go and keep working if you're not dead yet!
Luckily we managed to bring them back.
You won't be able to leave here until you die!
Quickly get up!
Hurry!
Go!
Quickly!
Hurry!
Push!
Hurry up!
Water... water.
I want water.
- Take them down. - Yes!
Bury the dead ones and those who are still alive can get back to work!
Take her away!
Let's go.
Water... water.
I want water... water...
Water... water...
You...
Are you trying to take revenge?
This is living hell.
How would I live on if I keep wanting to take revenge on you?
Don't worry, I don't blame you.
Take a rest, okay?
Here.
Quickly eat it.
Go on.
I have to go now.
Don't you think you're being too kind?
She almost got you killed
but you still gave her your bun
while you're starving.
We're all unfortunate people
so we should help each other out.
This epidemic's very scary.
A few more people have died last night.
I know it's a waste, but if we don't burn their clothes then it might spread.
They were fine one minute but suddenly died overnight.
Are you done yet? Get back to work!
We'll be there right away.
Sister, why don't you get back to work
and let me finish burning these clothes?
Why would you want to do that?
Be careful.
You'll die for sure if you catch the disease.
Okay.
What are you doing?
This blanket's mine but you took it away.
I'm just taking it back.
Yeah, get up and talk if you can!
You used to bully us all the time so you deserve this!
There you go, nice and warm.
I...
I shouldn't have done that to you.
It's all in the past, it's okay.
Let me tug you in.
It gets cold at night.
Go on and sleep, it'll be fine.
- Thank you. - Let me know if you need me.
Thank you.
Someone's contracted the epidemic!
- What? - Epidemic?
- I don't want to die! - Stay away from her!
She's got rash all over her!
She's sick, take her away.
- No, I'm not! - Get up!
Sir, are you taking her to the doctor?
- I'm not sick! - I'm not feeling well either.
Can you take me as well?
Since you were sleeping next to her
I guess you must have caught it, too.
How annoying! Take her as well!
Get up!
Sister.
You know what?
Then blanket that you used last night
used to belong to someone who died from the epidemic.
What?
Epidemic?
That's right, epidemic.
Thank you for not disappointing me
and actually caught the disease.
You bitch...
Me? A bitch?
What I did to you was exactly what you did to me.
You wanted me to be your scapegoat.
So I want you to know how it feels to be a scapegoat.
Only people with the epidemic would be taken to the wilderness and left to die.
Otherwise how else can we escape from hell?
I... I won't let you off the hook!
You bitch.
Bitch!
- Somebody! Come! - Shut up!
Can't you just shut up and die?
Here.
Put them onto the grass and burn them.
Okay.
No, I'm not going there!
Don't take me!
Let me go... let me go!
Set fire!
Let's go.
Yeah, burnt bodies smell so bad!
- Wake up... wake up! - I can't stand their scream as they burn.
Let's go.
Help!
Help me!
Help me, Fourth Prince!
I don't want to die yet!
Fourth Prince still doesn't know what they did to me yet!
Thank you, God!
[Lan Ling Manor]
Xiao Cui.
Has my Lady finished trying on her wedding gown?
I can't believe you, my Lady.
Tomorrow's your wedding and you've only come back today.
What if we don't have time to amend your wedding gown?
I don't think I'll be able to sleep tonight.
I'm sorry, Xiao Cui.
Thank you.
But I promise this will be the last time that I'll cause you trouble.
From tomorrow on
I'll do my best to become a good princess consort.
My Lady, I'm sure you'll become a great princess consort.
- Xiao Cui, why don't I help you tonight? - Fourth Brother.
I've simplified your wedding tomorrow just as you requested.
But there's one tradition that I can't neglect.
Which one?
As the bride arrives at the altar
she needs to be led to the altar by the most elderly person from her family.
But Sis-in-law doesn't have any relatives here.
That's certainly a problem.
Let me think about it.
Okay.
Report!
Fourth Prince, a lady's passed out in front of our manor.
I think she's Miss Zheng Er who came here for the princess consort selection before.
Are you okay, my Lady?
Where am I?
This is Lan Ling Manor.
Stay still.
I'll go let Fourth Prince know.
Doctor, how's Zheng Er doing?
Nothing serious, she just caught a cold.
But since she's quite weak
so she'll need to rest more.
She should recover within a month.
Fourth Prince, Zheng Er's awake now.
Would you like to see her?
Zheng Er, get up.
Sit down and talk.
Why are you hurt so badly?
Fourth Prince.
Fifth Prince.
Miss Xue Wu.
I'm sorry for what I've done to you.
It's all my fault.
I was too naive
and believed Zu Ting's lie.
He told me that the fragrant pouch
could bless Fourth Prince's family.
Since I wanted Fourth Prince to like me
so I put the fragrant pouch into Miss Xue Wu's room
without knowing that the voodoo doll was also inside.
Afterwards, although I did my best to try and prove Fourth Prince's innocence
but Zu Ting locked me up inside the Imperial Astrology Palace.
I know...
that no matter what I say now
I won't change the fact that I was part of the plot to frame Fourth Prince
and almost got you killed.
But I want to let you know
that I'd never ever try to hurt you.
Zheng Er.
I've spent some time with you before
so I know you're not a bad person.
Also, you're very much...
true to Fourth Prince.
So back then
I was sure you didn't mean to frame him.
You must have been used.
Then what happened?
How did you get back here?
After that
I was turned into a palace slave
and lived an inhumane life.
I was tortured in every way.
But I kept thinking
that I can't die.
I can't let myself die.
Because I still haven't apologized to Fourth Prince and Miss Xue Wu.
So I can't die.
I kept waiting
until I finally found a chance to escape.
Fourth Prince, Miss Xue Wu.
I'm sorry.
- Sorry, it's all my fault! - Zheng Er, don't do this.
- I'm so sorry! - Zheng Er, get up.
Don't be like this.
That's enough.
Zheng...
Fourth Prince!
I've finally found you, Fourth Prince!
Go on!
I can finally apologize to you and Miss Xue Wu.
Even if you want to kill me right now
I'd be willing to accept!
- Zheng Er, don't say that. - All right.
Come here.
Everything's okay now.
Sit down.
Fourth Prince, Zheng Er still has a fever.
We better let her take a rest.
It's your wedding tomorrow.
We're going to be very busy.
Princess Consort.
We still have to finish mending your wedding gown.
All right, let's all go to bed now.
Let's go.
- What about Zheng Er? - Fourth Prince.
So you and Miss Xue Wu...
are getting married tomorrow?
That's right, so we're going to be very busy tomorrow.
All right, let's all go to bed.
Go on.
Zheng Er, please take a good rest.
Have some rest.
Let's go.
Off you go now.
Go on.
He's getting married.
How can he get married?
How can he get married just like that?
Fourth Prince, why are you the only one drinking?
- I'm very thirsty. - Okay, I'll drink.
Fourth Prince lost again.
Fourth Prince.
I should have been the one sitting beside you preparing for the wedding right now.
I should have been the perfect match for you.
I should have been the princess consort of this manor.
Yang Xue Wu.
You pretended to be my friend to gain my trust
in order to have Fourth Prince to yourself.
Since you said you'd let me have Fourth Prince
then I'll gladly have him to myself.
Don't you regret it.
- Fourth Prince. - General Hulu, Imperial Tutor Duan.
Fourth Prince, it's Qi state's blessing
that you and Divine Sorceress are getting married today.
Fourth Prince, I've prepared a small gift
to wish you a happy wedding.
Have a look.
It's a sword made by a renowned blacksmith.
It's of the highest quality.
It'll help you fight all your enemies.
Thank you, General Hulu.
Fourth Prince, I also brought you a gift.
I've written out the explanatory notes for all 24 books of the great Zhuge Liang
as my gift to you, Fourth Prince.
Thank you, Imperial Tutor Duan.
Please accept my gratitude.
Not at all, Fourth Prince.
That's right.
General Hulu and I have been waiting for this day since you were young.
Since you've always been focused on studying war strategies and calligraphy
and have been fighting battles for our state since you were young
we thought you'd never get married.
But you're actually getting married today
and to a lady as fine as Xue Wu.
That's right.
I also think I'd never find another lady who's as kind and understanding
as Xue Wu with whom I can spend the rest of my life.
That's right, fate is certainly an amazing thing!
Oh yeah, Fourth Prince.
It's the second time for me to attend you and Xue Wu's wedding.
My Lady, you look beautiful today.
Even I can't stop looking at you.
Stop making fun of me.
I'm so nervous right now.
What's there to be nervous about?
Today
nothing is more certain than the fact
that you're marrying Prince of Lan Ling.
After today
Qi state's God of Battle will entirely belong to you.
That's right.
After today
I'll be the wife of God of Battle
Prince of Lan Ling.
Actually, I've already heard of his name since I was young.
But I never thought
that I'd end up meeting him
falling in love with him
and even becoming his wife.
It's just like a dream.
My Lady, you're very fortunate indeed.
Here.
My Lady, as you arrive at the altar
remember to hide your face behind this fan.
This is our custom.
So that the groom can't see your face so easily.
I know that.
I've already done this before
so I'm very experienced with it.
What a pity.
I'll have to hide my pretty face
behind this fan today.
Don't forget.
You can only put down the fan
after you've been brought into your bedroom.
Otherwise you'll have to obey Fourth Prince for the rest of your life.
Who cares?
Since I've decided to marry him
of course I wouldn't mind that.
My Lady, it's now the auspicious time.
Please go to the altar.
Oh no, my Lady!
I only remembered to prepare your wedding gown and fan
but forgot to ask an elderly relative of yours to lead you to the altar
and give your hand to your husband.
What if no one's there to lead you in?
What should we do?
- Well... - It's all my fault, my Lady!
Don't panic, Xiao Cui.
Well...
White Mountain Village doesn't have such a a custom either.
Also, I'm sure I already have my grandma's blessing.
So don't worry.
I can walk in by myself.
No, but according to the elders
if no one's there to lead you in
then the bride wouldn't have a happy marriage.
It's okay, Xiao Cui.
I already decided to become a good princess consort.
That means from now on
Fourth Prince's safety and our people's well-being
will have higher priority than my own happiness.
So if there's no one to lead me in
then I'll just walk in myself.
- But... - All right, I'm ready.
Let's go.
Fourth Brother.
Don't be so nervous.
It's not the first time that you're doing this.
I'm taking this very seriously.
All right, I'm sorry, okay?
I wonder who's going to lead Miss Xue Wu to the altar.
As far as I know
Miss Xue Wu came to Ye city all by herself.
I've never seen her family before.
But it's her wedding today.
We can't let the bride walk in by herself.
That's right.
Fifth Prince, what do you think?
Well...
In a sense, Xue Wu has given up her family
because of Fourth Prince.
I know that.
Ever since Miss Xue Wu decided to be with Fourth Prince
her family has already stopped seeing her.
I see.
Listen.
If there really isn't anyone from her family then I'm willing to accompany her.
Me, too.
How about the both of us lead Miss Xue Wu to the altar?
- Okay! - Good idea!
Here comes the bride!
- Why is the bride by herself? - That's against the custom.
- Why is there no one to lead her in? - That's not right.
How can the bride walk in by herself?
It's the prince's wedding today.
How can they forget such an important custom?
Be quiet, the bride's already here.
Yang Xue Wu, hang in there.
It doesn't matter if there's no one to lead you in.
You can still proudly walk in by yourself.
My dear granddaughter!
Weren't you going to wait for me?
Where do you think you're going?
Granddaughter?
Early this morning
Su Er rushed over and wanted to see me.
He said his bride has given up everything
in order to be with him.
That's why he wants to give her the grandest wedding ever.
He asked me to make you my granddaughter
and get married as a princess.
He also asked me to lead you to the altar.
Don't cry.
It should a happy occasion today.
Xue Wu.
See?
Isn't my grandson a thoughtful husband?
I'm all confused now.
So are you my granddaughter-in-law
or my granddaughter?
I'm both, Grandma.
That's right, you're both!
- Congratulations! - Congratulations, Miss Xue Wu!
Fu Gui and Ji Xiang?
- You look beautiful! - Auntie Gou Sheng?
Fourth Prince invited us, congratulations!
Pretty Lady, since we're both girls
don't be shy.
Let's bathe together!
You...
Why didn't you tell me you were a man?
Miss Xue Wu's not an ordinary girl.
She's innocent, kind, and intelligent.
I've never seen such a pure girl before.
I'm not an outsider.
I'm the man who favors Miss Xue Wu.
I've come all the way here
because I believe it will keep you safe.
If I had met you earlier
I'm sure we would have been great friends.
Thank God for letting me meet you.
You're smart, kind, and kept risking your life to save me.
Watch out, Fourth Prince!
You must get better.
The people of Luo Yang are waiting for you.
I saw Xue Wu in my dream.
She's in danger, I must go save her!
You sneaked to Zhou state all by yourself in order to save me.
How would I repay you?
As long as you're alive, then it'd be my best reward.
You wouldn't be able to go back even if you want to now.
Because I'd only give you one chance to leave me.
Now that you've come back to me
I'll never let you go again.
How long have you been hiding here?
I've always been following you.
I was worried about you.
Okay, that's enough.
You've done so much for me.
I'm sure you're the one for me.
I don't need to hide behind the fan anymore.
Even if I get locked up by you
and have to obey you all my life
it'd...
it'd still be fine with me.
What a perfect couple.
Should we just skip right to the bride and groom bow?
Fifth Brother.
Of course we can!
Bride and groom bow!
It's the bride and groom bow.
I'm so happy for them!
And again!
One more time!
Yes!
- Congratulations! - Thank you, everyone.
Congratulations, Prince of Lan Ling!
They didn't bow to their parents or God.
She didn't even hide behind her fan.
Yang Xue Wu.
Don't you worry.
We'll definitely do everything by the rule when Fourth Prince and I get married.
