[Perfect Couple]
Episode Thirty
My Lady. Arrest them!
Get up!
What are you doing? I take full responsibility!
Let go of Xiao Xuan! Just take me!
Let go of Qi Ling! This is all my fault!
Let her go!
All right, stop fighting over that.
Neither of you can escape.
Wen Zhao! I 'll leave them to you!
Take them away!
Move!
Move it!
Let go of me!
Get in there!
- You are all dismissed. - Yes!
What would you like to say to me?
I'll do my best to help you.
Cousin Wen Zhao, no matter what happens
you have to take good care of Jin Yuan Bao for me.
No matter what, Jin Yuan Bao will always be Young Master of Jin Manor.
You should be more concerned about yourself.
If Wen Zhao hadn't given us a heads up
I'd still be kept in the dark by now.
I wouldn't have a clue until we were all doomed.
My Lady, are you serious about killing the both of them?
It isn't that I'm cold-blooded
but should the Empress Dowager learn of this matter
she would also be inclined to kill them.
By then, it wouldn't be just the both of them who would get killed!
I can't neglect the safety of everyone in Jin Manor.
My Lady, pardon me for being bold.
But killing Yu Qi Ling alone would be good enough.
The real Jiang Xiao Xuan is here anyway.
Wouldn't it absolve the situation if we get her back in her rightful position?
That won't do!
Everyone in the Manor recognizes Yu Qi Ling's appearance.
They have all treated her as Jiang Xiao Xuan.
Now that Jiang Xiao Xuan has a different appearance
no one would be able to recognize her. It will just look more suspicious.
Therefore... My only choice is to kill the both of them.
Then I'll announce that the Young Mistress died suddenly of an illness.
We might be able to pull it off.
If they are to blame anyone they can only blame themselves.
Sir, you are so wise.
This time, be it the real Jiang Xiao Xuan
or the fake Jiang Xiao Xuan
Madam Jin won't allow either of them to survive.
The marriage bond between the Jins and the Jiangs will soon be over.
When Second Prince hears about this
he is bound to reward you heavily.
I won't let her die.
I can't bear to let her die.
Who are you referring to?
Yu Qi Ling.
You're going to let her go?
She might not be grateful if I save her life now.
I'll secretly inform Jin Yuan Bao of the current situation
so that he can rescue her.
Sir, why are you...
I don't understand.
I'll let Jin Yuan Bao rescue Yu Qi Ling
so that his relationship with my aunt will deteriorate.
My aunt will be very upset so I'll make use of this opportunity
to damage their relationship to the fullest.
Once Jin Yuan Bao leaves with Yu Qi Ling
you'll send people after him.
Jin Yuan Bao is lucky and has escaped unscathed quite a few times.
We must not allow him to return to Jin Manor alive.
Only then can my position in Jin Manor be absolutely secure.
What about Yu Qi Ling?
Don't lay a finger on her.
I have my own arrangements.
Yes.
I'm going to inform Jin Yuan Bao now that my aunt has arrested Yu Qi Ling.
Jin Yuan Bao is sure to beg my aunt for mercy.
And my aunt will definitely refuse. She'll have guards keep an eye on Jin Yuan Bao.
You are Madam Jin's chief bodyguard.
Don't forget to let Jin Yuan Bao slip away at the right time.
I understand.
Young Master, Mister Liu is here.
What brings you here?
I am here because of Yu Qi Ling.
- You are all dismissed. - Yes!
Explain yourself.
It seems that you have no idea at all.
Auntie already knows that Xiao Xuan...
No, I mean Yu Qi Ling's true identity.
The real Jiang Xiao Xuan and Yu Qi Ling have both been captured.
Both of them probably won't get to live.
How did my mother find out?
Did you tell her about it?
Jin Yuan Bao, if it was me, if I had known about it
I wouldn't have allowed Yu Qi Ling to stay in Jin Manor
where it is a place of trouble. Understand?
Where are you going?
You want Auntie to pardon Yu Qi Ling?
Will you stop being so naive?
A marriage deception is lèse-majesté! It has a death penalty!
Auntie will never keep her alive!
Even if Auntie does let her off Empress Dowager will not!
She is my wife. You're meddling way too much in our business.
Your wife?
So what if she is your wife?
She risked her life many times for you and almost lost her life. What about you?
Where were you when she was dragged to the dungeon?
I went to see her and all she said to me was
'Take good care of Jin Yuan Bao.'
Jin Yuan Bao, don't you find it ironic?
A man who can't even take care of your own wife.
You will be laughed at by others.
Xiao Xuan, do you regret what we have done?
I have never regretted what we have done.
It's just that...
I can't bear to part with Chang Feng.
Me neither.
I can't bear to part with my mother.
And Yuan Bao.
Now that Yuan Bao already knows about this matter
I believe that he will rescue you.
I would like him to rescue me
but then I also wouldn't want him to do so.
I don't want him to take any more risks because of this matter.
Too many people have been hurt because of this.
Xiao Xuan...
I am sorry.
I've dragged you down with me.
Otherwise, you could have left a long time ago.
Stop saying that.
If it hadn't been for me
why would you even be trapped in this sort of place?
I am the one who started all this in the first place.
Honestly speaking, now that this has escalated to this stage
I can only take it as it is.
It's just that...
I've incriminated you in all this.
In our next life
we'll be great sisters, right?
Ah Fu, this is an urgent matter.
Pay attention to what I have to say.
Young Master, please go ahead.
I'll go and beg my mother for mercy
but I reckon my chances are slim.
If our negotiations don't go well she will have me grounded.
I want you to inform Wang Qiang to rescue me from my room tonight.
- Yes, Sir. - One more thing.
Inform Chang Feng to prepare a horse-drawn carriage and food.
This is for the worst case scenario.
Sir, are you going to rescue and leave with Young Mistress and Miss Xue Er?
I hope to persuade my mother.
Then we won't have to resort to that solution.
But I know my mother too well.
That is why we have to be well-prepared.
Yes, Sir. I understand. I'll get that all done right away.
Insolent!
How dare you even mention that wild girl to me!
Mother, it doesn't matter who she is
she is still the woman I'm deeply in love with.
This means you're here to beg for mercy on her behalf?
Mother.
For my sake, I beg you to spare her life.
A wild and vulgar girl like her was so bold and daring
to impersonate the daughter of Prime Minister Jiang
to marry into our family.
She has committed such a heinous crime
and yet you're still begging me to pardon her?
You want to cover up her crime?
Mother, the love I have for Qi Ling is already deeply rooted in my mind.
It doesn't matter if she is daughter of the Prime Minister or just a commoner.
That doesn't matter to me anymore.
I endured hardships for 20 years
and ended up bringing up an ungrateful child!
For the sake of an unknown woman
you've not only risked your own life
but that of mine, and everyone else here in Jin Manor.
Look into your own conscience and tell me if you have let me down?
Are you still fit to be the son of Jin Family?
Mother, I can't let her die.
She brought this upon herself. She can't be kept alive!
I have made an oath.
I will protect her.
I will spend this lifetime with her
and I'll never leave her.
Are you still Jin Yuan Bao?
Are you still my son?
At this very moment, I really wish that I wasn't Jin Yuan Bao.
I wish that I were a commoner.
I will live and die with her.
That's impossible! Over my dead body!
Mother, Jiang Xiao Xuan fled from the wedding
and Yu Qi Ling married me instead by mistake.
I only learned about that recently.
This is all my fault.
I fell in love with her.
That is why I kept you in the dark
and lied to you.
I am willing to take full responsibility for everything that has happened.
You will take full responsibility?
This is lèse-majesté. Can you possibly take that responsibility on your own?
Mother, I beg you to spare Qi Ling and Xiao Xuan.
Only by getting rid of the both of them will this scandal go away
and save all the lives here at Jin manor as well as your own life!
Do you understand?
Mother, do we have to sacrifice the both of them
in order to save Jin Family?
This isn't a decision for you to make.
Ah Gui!
Take Young Master back to his room!
He is not to leave his room without my permission.
Yes, My Lady.
Mother, I beg you to spare them.
Take him away.
Mother... Mother!
Mother!
You'd all better be alert.
Keep a close eye on the room.
There is not to be a moment of sloppiness, do you hear me?
Yes!
Mister Gui, I'm bringing some food to Young Master.
I've never seen those two pages before.
They are new here.
- All right, go ahead. - Yes.
Let's go!
- How is it? - You'd better leave now, Sir!
Let's go!
Ah Fu, tell Chang Feng to get the horse and carriage ready.
Yes!
- Wang Qiang, let's go. - Yes!
Sir, everything has gone according to plan.
Why are you still looking so glum?
Ah Gui...
Yu Qi Ling... I can't kill her.
Why not?
This is such a good chance.
You can get someone else to kill her.
Then the marriage bond between the Jins and Jiangs will be broken
and Jin Yuan Bao will lose his mind over this incident.
He will sever all ties with his mother and isn't that the best thing?
I will leave Jin Manor for a short period of time.
Take good care of Qian Qian for me.
How long will you be away?
I can't say for sure.
Perhaps, I won't ever come back here.
Sir, you've endured such humiliation for years in Jin Manor
and now you're on the verge of achieving your goals
how could you leave at this crucial moment?
Perhaps, I could also lead a different life.
No matter where you might go
I'm willing to follow you and serve you till my death.
Qi Ling, listen!
Yuan Bao must be here to rescue you.
- Mister Liu. - Mister Liu.
- You are dismissed. - Yes!
It's you.
Are you here to kill us?
Whether you're Jiang Xiao Xuan or Yu Qi Ling
I won't kill you.
Madam Jin will never spare us.
Madam Jin definitely won't spare you.
But I can help you.
How are you going to help us?
As long as you promise to leave Jin Manor and Jin Yuan Bao
and never think about Jin Yuan Bao ever again I'll let you go free.
Thank you for your kindness.
I will never leave Jin Yuan Bao.
This must be my fate.
Why can't you leave him?
You can find a better spouse if you leave him.
It has to be him and only him. That is my fate.
If you really would like to help me
I have a favor to ask of you.
Go ahead.
Could you save Xiao Xuan?
She is the real daughter of the Prime Minister.
I've dragged her down with me.
How can you still think of others under this kind of situation?
She could have gotten away.
But I incriminated her.
Tell me why you risked your life to come to Jin Manor.
I'm not after riches or a life of luxury.
I married into Jin Family in order to look for someone.
Have you found that person?
You have?
Qi Ling, listen up.
I will always welcome you at my place.
Don't give up any hope until the very last minute.
I will always be the one you can trust the most.
Thank you, Cousin Wen Zhao.
Be careful and take care not to hurt anyone.
- Understood. - Yes.
- Greetings, Young Master. - Greetings, Young Master.
Open the door.
Madam Jin has ordered no one is allowed to enter without her permission.
My mother has ordered me to take Young Mistress and Miss Xue Er to her.
Please wait here, Sir.
We will confirm this with Madam Jin right away.
Yuan Bao!
Let's go!
Come on!
Stop right there!
You're not to leave!
Stop right there!
Let's go! Hurry up!
- Get out of the way. - Young Master...
I don't dare go against the orders of Madam Jin.
I told you to step aside.
Madam Jin has given orders to stop Young Master from taking away the prisoners.
Be very careful with your moves.
If any of you hurt Young Master in the slightest
you won't have enough lives to pay for it.
- Arrest him with caution. - Yes!
- Leave now! - Let's go.
Wang Qiang, Shao Min! Go!
Yes!
- Go after them! - Yes!
[General's Manor]
Stop right there!
Young Master, don't act so impulsively.
You can communicate with Madam Jin nicely.
That is between my mother and me.
It has nothing to do with you.
If you're smart enough get out of my way.
I can't defy Madam Jin's orders. Don't make this hard for me.
I told you to get out of my way.
I have my duties. Pardon me for not being able to obey you.
Then I'll have to kill you.
Don't make me do it.
Arrest them all!
I dare you!
What are you still waiting for?
Mother.
Please spare us.
I've taken an oath.
I promised to spend a lifetime with Qi Ling.
If anything should happen to her
I will choose to die with her.
Qi Ling isn't to be blamed for everything that has happened.
I will submit a plea to Empress Dowager.
I, Jin Yuan Bao, should shoulder this responsibility as well.
I am the one who fell in love with her.
Submit a plea to Empress Dowager?
Yuan Bao, are you threatening me with your life and the lives of everyone
here in Jin Manor?
Mother... she saved my life.
It is no longer mine to live.
Yuan Bao, are you really willing to die for that woman?
I am.
Fine.
I will let you go.
But once you step out of this door
you will no longer be my son.
I will no longer be your mother.
Get out of the way!
Hurry up! Get in the carriage!
Let's go.
Chang Feng! Get back here!
Get back here right now!
Chang Feng!
Chang Feng! Get back here!
Chang Feng!
Get back here!
Chang Feng! Get back here! Chang Feng!
Chang Feng! Get back here...
Chang Feng!
Stop crying!
Arrange some reliable guards to follow Yuan Bao.
On one hand, they can protect them
and on the other hand I need to know where Yuan Bao went.
I must be informed of my son's news and whereabouts.
You can't really let go of Young Master.
It's always said all parents will eventually give in to their children.
Yuan Bao can abandon his mother so easily
but how could I do the same to him?
He is my son.
I am his mother.
Yes, I'll send some guards to follow them.
You've both had a rough time tonight.
We'll look for a place to rest as well as have some food.
Yes!
Don't be too upset.
There is always a solution.
I remember that you once asked me
who I would choose between you and my mother.
At that time, I thought your question was too hypocritical.
But it has really happened to us now.
Why have you chosen me?
I can't watch you die and do nothing about it.
As for my mother, I could still try to mend our relationship.
You must be very upset, right?
Mother...
I've let you down.
Xiao Xuan, stop crying.
This is all my fault.
I'm all right. Seriously.
You've abandoned your mother for me.
Am I worth it?
You are.
You're safe as long as we leave Jin Manor.
I've already made arrangements according to your orders.
Only Jin Yuan Bao's life is to be taken.
Don't hurt Yu Qi Ling.
Yes.
In Yuan Bao's words
if he doesn't have a jade bed, down quilt, and sandalwood pillow
he won't be able to fall asleep.
But now in the middle of the wilderness
he could still sleep so soundly.
He must truly be exhausted.
Yuan Bao has never had such a hard life.
Chang Feng was brought up under the roof of Jin Manor.
When has he ever suffered such hardships before?
It's so sad they now have to lead the life of a fugitive with us.
Yuan Bao must be very upset.
He adores and looks up to his mother.
But now he's abandoned his mother because of me.
How is that any different from scraping the flesh off of him?
I've still made him end up taking the last resort.
Chang Feng... He values friendship above everything else.
He's now forced to abandon his mother.
I believe he must be very upset and hurt.
I remember that Yuan Bao once told me
that his biggest ambition was to be a detective.
But now because of me
he can't even be a detective now.
Do you think that I'm too selfish?
It's our fault. Because of us Yuan Bao can't be a detective anymore.
Chang Feng can't be a doctor anymore.
It's been Chang Feng's lifelong wish to be a good doctor.
I finally understand
the reason why my mother refuses to reunite with him.
She's afraid that she might destroy his life.
My mother and I both love Yuan Bao.
But now because I love him
I've gotten him into trouble.
Yes.
We can't be so selfish.
Perhaps... Perhaps if we leave them
it is better for them.
A grown man shouldn't just have love
but he should also have his family.
And also a career.
I think... It's time for us to leave.
But I am so upset.
It's as if I am being pricked by needles.
It's the same for me.
I feel just as upset as you are.
Where's Xiao Xuan?
Xiao Xuan!
- Where's Xiao Xuan? - Qi Ling!
- Xiao Xuan! - Qi Ling!
- Xiao Xuan!
This is the letter they left us.
We have already left.
Tare care of yourselves. Don't worry about us.
We'll take good care of ourselves.
Go back to your mothers.
What are they trying to do?
They must have gone to E-Mei Mountain.
The carriage is still here. They shouldn't have gone far.
Let's go after them.
You are right. They are going to E-Mei Mountain to look for us.
If they can't find us they will head back to Jin Manor.
What should we do now?
We'll follow them quietly.
There were so many people who tried to kill Jin Yuan Bao on my homecoming trip.
He might be very intelligent but he's not very skilled in martial arts.
I'm really worried about him.
I'm also very worried about Chang Feng.
Let's follow them from a distance.
Even if I only get to see Chang Feng from behind, it's better than nothing.
Let's go.
Master has given orders that we must kill Jin Yuan Bao today.
Xiao Xuan.
Xiao Xuan, no matter what happens
don't come out of hiding.
- It'd be a mess if you do. Understand? - Yes.
All right, I'll go and save them.
Be careful.
Chang Feng! Run!
I won't run away!
We'll all leave together!
Chang Feng!
- Chang Feng! - Xiao Xuan!
- Are you all right? - I'm all right.
Go now!
Hurry up! Attack!
Let's go!
- Xiao Xuan! - Yuan Bao!
Let's go.
Let's leave now.
That was such a close shave.
Luckily they had internal strife or else we were definitely doomed.
No, they are two different groups.
What?
One group of them wants to kill me
but the other group is here to protect us.
Who sent them to protect you?
They are from Jin Manor.
You mother couldn't really give up on you.
Yuan Bao, you should go home.
Fortunately, you came back to me.
Otherwise, I'd have gone to the ends of the Earth till I found you.
I'd never abandon you.
Auntie, don't be so upset.
No matter what, your health comes first.
Those guards that I sent to protect Yuan Bao just reported back to me
that there are people out there who wanted to kill Yuan Bao.
Why would this happen?
But Yuan Bao has always been very lucky.
He never fails to escape the jaws of danger.
I hope he can figure things out soon
and come back to the manor as soon as possible.
The servants told me that they headed towards Fu Chang Inn.
That isn't the way home.
I thought that Yuan Bao had grown up and could take over the Manor.
But I didn't expect him to be so infatuated by a wild girl.
He has disappointed me again and again.
Yes, Yuan Bao does indeed disappoint us greatly.
By the way, speaking of our Bureau of Weaponry
we just received a new batch of weapons.
They hope that whoever is in charge could go and examine the weapons.
Yuan Bao is so useless.
Wen Zhao, I've been feeling unwell these days
so I'd need you to run an errand to Bureau of Weaponry for me.
Please take care of matters over there for now.
Auntie, I'll definitely do my best.
When Yuan Bao returns, I'll hand over the Bureau to him.
I hope that this day does come.
Wen Zhao, you're smart, capable, diligent, and loyal.
I wouldn't have to be so worried if Yuan Bao was half as good as you are.
Auntie, I will definitely not let you down.
