Dad, isn't eating as a family great?
Moreover, the food in restaurants isn't that good.
Why don't we regularly
cook our own meals at home?
Right?
That's right! I feel that we ought to eat together often.
Old Dad, What's wrong?
Auntie.
Old Dad.
Auntie.
What dinner did they eat?
They have eaten their way to the hospital.
Could it be your cooking
had some problems?
What do you mean?
Are you saying it's my fault?
My goodwill was taken as ill intent.
I'm not.
Calm down a little.
This is a hospital.
If you want to argue,
go outside.
Who want to argue with this small-minded guy?
He is wrongly accusing people.
Just stop right there.
I'm not here to settle family squabbles.
Do you guys wish to know why the elders
are unconscious?
Of course we want to know!
Then you shouldn't be arguing anymore.
Firstly,
the old man is not afflicted with food poisoning,
and it is not life threatening.
But from the check up,
both of them had absorbed a type of
strong hypnotic substance.
So, they have fallen into a deep sleep.
Try to remember,
have the elders eaten anything strange?
Probably not.
The dinner that we ate together,
I didn't have any problems.
Right, right. He ate the most.
You can see, there isn't one problem at all.
Please think carefully.
Red Roasted Pork.
This type of leaf
can lead a person into a deep sleep.
(It has) a result similar to the South American sleeping mushroom.
If we are not be careful,
it can caused them to sleep for many days.
Where did you get those leaves?
All those leaves (those ingredients) are bought by myself.
But I've never seen this type of leaf before.
This type of leaf is very rare.
Even if you wanted to buy it, there isn't anywhere that sells it.
That's strange.
Since we know the cause of the illness,
then I will go plan a cure strategy.
- Thank You. - You're welcome..
Hello. Who is this?
You don't need to know who I am.
But I know that right now you are in the hospital
and that your parents are in a sleep they won't wake from.
It's him.
I ask you, did you guys make this problem?
This is just a warning.
I gave the box back to you
so that you guys can open the box.
But you guys, together, are just eating and drinking.
I am very disappointed in you
so I've given you a little punishment.
I'm telling you people,
when we want to open the box,
we will open it.
It has nothing to do with you.
I'm telling you people, you're doing these crimes.
I will come to find you and resolve this problem.
Two little kids who don't understand the complexities...
Shouting won't do you any good.
If I could put the leaves into your house,
then I can take the box back any time,
or your lives.
This warning is only the start.
Next time, something a lot more terrible will happen.
If you don't want to meet with this kind of situation,
then you'd better discover how to open the box before those thing happen.
Hello? Hello!
This situation is getting more and more complicated.
In order to open the box,
they've become absolutely crazy.
Right now, we can't do anything.
Right, I will go see auntie.
You go to uncle's side.
Gao Lan.
You need to be careful by yourself.
Your whole family wants to be reunited
and live happily.
Don't dream.
Your nightmare has just begun.
I want to let you experience what is called hardship...
torment...
Where is... Where is this place?
Aiyo... My head really hurts.
This is... the hospital.
Lan Lan. Lan Lan. Wake up, wake up.
Auntie.
Auntie, at last you've woken up!
At last?
You've slept for 3 days and 3 nights.
I've slept for 3 days and 3 nights?
Da Chuan's father... I remember he fainted too.
How is he?
Be careful.
Old guy.
What is wrong with you?
Old guy.
Lan Lan.
What's wrong?
Ah, auntie...
This... this...
How am I going to say this?
Lan Lan. What is behind you?
Don't stand in the way!
I'm not!
What are you hiding?
What is behind you?
There's nothing.
Lan Lan.
Old guy.
Auntie. Don't be agitated! Auntie.
Aunite, don't be agitated!
Old guy!
Isn't your health normally very healthy?
How can you just collapse like this?
Didn't we just have a little spat?
How can you be so stupid?
Why did you get angry?
What happened?
Just now, I took out the plug,
and after that, they have both reconciled.
If I knew earlier,
I wouldn't of argued with you.
Isn't it just backing down a little
and apologizing?
I will back down.
Is it ok?
Have you ever regretted (anything)?
I don't know.
But...
But in my heart I really, really regret...
I really want to have a good conversation with you.
Hey.
Why are you so into the scene?
I've always thought,
my mum and dad were really strong.
I never thought that my mum was that 'weak'.
Oh, then...
Let's not let auntie suffer anymore.
Let's tell her the truth.
Eh... wait.
My mother is a very fierce woman.
It's likely that she's never reflected like this.
Let her cry for a bit.
But once I see your bad temper,
my temper can't help but arise.
Everytime we meet, we argue.
Meet once, argue once.
I also stopped thinking about us reuniting again.
Silly old man.
Why is it that I have nothing left?
It's all gone! I have nothing left.
You can't hear.
Xiao Chuan also really missed you.
Don't have a hard time.
I will definitely find Xiao Chuan.
Our family will definitely be whole and together again.
Son, son, son...
Eh auntie, what's wrong?
Eh... Who pulled the wire out?
Oh, it could be that it fell out by itself.
Lan Lan.
You...
Please stop being so noisy.
If you have nothing else to do, then go outside.
Don't bother other people resting.
Mother, go out.
Auntie, it's all my fault today.
I want to apologize.
No, no. Come, sit.
Lan Lan. Auntie doesn't blame you.
Not only does Auntie not blame you,
Auntie needs to thank you.
It's true.
If it wasn't for you suddenly dropping by,
this old man and I...
I'm afraid that in this lifetime we wouldn't even be able
to break through a thin paper.
Son.
Mother, is really sorry to you.
Mother.
The things in the past, let it stay in the past.
Thank you. Thank you, son.
I'm really jealous of you.
Lan Lan.
What's wrong?
I've never had parents.
Old Brother brought me up.
All his hard work was all for me.
But now I
don't even know where he is.
Lan Lan. Good child.
Don't cry anymore. Don't cry.
Mother.
From now on, let's never separate.
Right, there is nothing that will be able to separate us again.
This time, you are lucky.
The next time is not so easy.
Your family
needs to pay for all you've done.
What's wrong with you?
Hearing Gao Lan's words,
I think of myself.
I'm the same as her. Ever since I was young, I had no parents.
Luckily, you took me in
and brought me up.
You are the closest person to me.
Looking at you suffer,
I suffer too.
Tell me...
What exactly did they do to you
to make you hate them so much?
Say it out.
I will heal your wounds for you.
Wounds can heal.
But harm, forever, cannot be undone.
No matter what is it, I want to give it a try.
So many years, so many times, so many girls
have tried to do this.
But in the end, they all died.
Then, I even more wanna try.
Like that,
even if I died,
there will be no regrets.
Foolish.
Master YI!!
Can't you wash your hair?
So smelly!
You little brat! No one is as smelly as you.
Me?
Comb properly.
San Bao, I drank too much today.
My credit card is overdrawn.
Later, go and pay for my drinks.
I don't have any time. I'm busy.
I say you!
Your clothes are really not coordinated.
What are you doing? Are you going for a date?
Aiyah. I need to go see a woman,
but it is not a date.
You want to see a girl?
And you are all dressed up?
If I say it out loud,
you won't be able to laugh.
Huh! I won't be fooled by you.
Today,
the Emperor wants us to go into the palace
to do a check-up on Li Fei Niang Niang.
What did you say?
Xiao Chuan.
You must remember one thing.
What is it?
This is a palace, and she is the Empress.
I know, Quickly, let's go in.
Looks like I need to be more obvious.
Inside this palace, there are many ears.
There are many ears.
You need to mind your conduct.
Don't let yourself and Yu Shu bring trouble upon yourselves.
I know.
I am Cui Wan Jing.
I am Yi Xiao Chuan.
Bow to Empress.
This doctor Yi,
isn't he the doctor Yi who cured my disease?
I am.
I want to thank you Doctor.
Come on! Bring the chair...
Thanks so much, Empress!
I am here to give Niang Niang a check-up.
May we know, lately,
what do you feel right now?
My body is fine,
and my diet is also normal.
Then, that's good. Then, I don't have to worry.
But... I just feel my heart is restless
and can't sleep at night.
This is because after recovering from a serious illness,
it's "anxiety caused by false alarm".
(You) don't need to worry!
I will give Niang Niang
some medication to calm your mind, and you'll be fine.
Doctor Yi, do you have any other opinion?
Yes... Doctor Cui said the correct statement...
I think...
your illness will not improve immediately.
You need to recuperate slowly and carefully.
Doctor Cui,
do you think that we should come
to examine Niang Niang often?
This depends on Niang Niang's opinion.
If it is so, that's great!
Empress, lunch is ready.
Then serve it.
Yes.
Lately, there is a new chef in the palace whose skills are good.
It is great that you masters have come today!
What if you eat some of it before we two masters leave?
Thank for your invitation. It's all right.
Then we will gladly accept this order.
Small one bows to Empress.
Empress, the food is ready.
Serve the dishes to the two Doctors first.
Yes.
You two masters, enjoy the food.
Sirs, please tell me what you think.
We'll...
Niang Niang, I will go and prepare a few more dishes.
Looking is useless. Quickly go.
Looking is useless, quickly go.
Xiao Chuan. Long time no see.
I say, who can be so stubborn and powerful
that you could cure Niang Niang's illness?
Today, as soon as I saw it was you guys,
I didn't find it strange one bit.
With Old Cui around, can any illness be not cured, isn't it?
Old Cui curing Niang Niang's illness is not strange at all.
What is strange is,
how did you come to the palace
and became a Royal Chef?
This is it!
I finally returned to the imperial kitchen.
And here, I even became the supervisor...
eunuch.
This is a really cruel fate.
Are you sure that...
it was really Liu Bang
who threw us into the fire pit?
First of all, I knew nothing,
but when I become the eunuch's manager,
I had power.
By asking people, little by little, I could make it clearly.
(I'm) definitely not wrong.
I still can't believe it.
We are sworn brothers!
You and my sworn brother met each other for the first time...
No enmity with each other!
And... I think...
he doesn't look like someone who would do this kind of thing.
Xiao Chuan.
Don't be so silly.
No one will be loyal to you.
Even more, no one will tell you the truth.
I have endured great suffering.
I finally understand.
If you don't want to be bullied,
then you can only crawl upwards.
I remember clearly.
Everyone who bullied me.
I remember all in my brain!!
One day, when I have the status and power,
I will make everyone die.
The first would be Liu Bang.
The second would be those who castrated me.
Next would be
the servants in the imperial kitchen.
Lao Gao. Don't be like this. Don't be so rash.
I know you suffered a terrible blow,
but let me give you one word of advice.
Don't go on with thinking to take revenge on them.
Like that, you will only make yourself suffer more.
You're wrong.
I don't have time
to always think of revenge
against these lowly people.
What I'm thinking all the time, is to climb upwards.
Then, the people in front of me
I will pull down
and I'll go up and kill them!
Xiao Chuan.
I must remind you, this Gao Yao is not the same as the old Gao Yao.
When we talk to him,
we must be extremely careful.
I can see too.
Being a Eunuch,
to him, was just too big.
I can't blame him for turning to be like this.
If it were me
If it were me, I wouldn't be able to accept it.
Not only Gao Yao,
every eunuch in the palace all think like that.
They will keep on climbing up with all means.
That is called...
'wrecked heart thinking'.
So I advice you not to come to this place.
Anyone can easy tell your relationship with Yu Shu.
If they have a chance next time,
they will definitely attack and banish you.
Then you two will be miserable.
I told you, I know it!
Next time, I will refrain myself.
You didn't clearly listen to my words!
Do you want to think about the next time?
There won't be any next time.
Next time.
Why can't it be next time?
Empress, his Majesty is coming.
Prepare the reception.
Your Majesty.
No need to prepare, I'm here already.
I am bowing to you! Majesty...
Good, please rise.
Today the doctors came.
How was it?
Reporting to you, my King!
The doctors all said it was because of 'anxiety caused by false alarm' which caused Niang Niang's insomnia.
They have suggested a formula for it.
Oh, right. I remembered someone gave me a luminous pearl.
It has the effect of relaxation for people.
Bring it over and put it in my beloved Consort's quarters, so she can recover soon.
Your majesty wants the luminous pearl.
Yes.
Eh, this... This isn't right.
This is a fake one!
Your highness!
The Night-Glow-Stone is lost.
Lost?
The Chief Eunuch has already killed himself for the mistake.
The Chief Eunuch can't even guard a luminous pearl properly?
Even death is not enough!
No one can do anything!
If you can lose a luminous pearl today, then you can lose my palace tomorrow!
Your lowly servants deserve to die.
I can manage the world,
but I can't find even one person to manage the palace.
Your highness.
I know a person who can do this job.
Tell me!
The Royal Kitchen's Gao Yao is very attentive to his work.
This person... Does give his best.
He's gained my trust.
He's never made any mistake.
Command!
Let Gao Yao take over the Chief Eunuch position
and have him investigate the missing luminous pearl!
Yes.
Do you know who I am?
You can't even greet (me).
All of you are repulsive!
We know our guilt!
Stand up.
You, stand up too.
Come here.
Hit him.
Use strength to hit him.
Hit him.
You hit him.
Hit again.
You two guys hit against each other!
Enough!
How is it?
Are you satisfied?
Is everyone calm now?
So, I will ask all of you...
who is in charge of the luminous pearl?
You four.
Everyone else stand up.
Don't be happy and don't be comfortable right now.
I have not finished talking yet!
You all
have to question those four
and solve it accordingly.
If there is a solution found, then you'll be fine.
But if there is no answer, then you'll be just like them, condemned to death.
Stop wasting time then.
Take that down.
Using alcohol to ease pain will only make it worse.
Is it boring drinking alone?
I will drink with you.
What? Not welcoming?
I'll get my own cup then.
Why have you come out of the Palace?
And how did you know I was here?
Didn't I tell you already?
As long as you crawl upwards, whatever you want, you get.
Locating you is easy.
And about leaving the palace,
it is easier now.
I'm now the Chief Eunuch.
If I want to go out the Palace, I will go out the Palace.
Toast.
It's been a long time since I've come here to drink again.
Congratulations.
I tell you the truth that...
I still need to thank you.
Don't joke.
I don't have that kind of power.
You have a lot of power. Don't be modest.
Except you and me, who else understands this thing?
No.
Where did you find this thing?
The treasure room.
The place where the Night-Glow-Pearl was stolen.
What Night-Glowing Pearl?
Don't fake.
Because of the lost Night-Glowing Pearl, the palace turned into chaos.
But you can rest assured, nobody will suspect you
because I'm the Chief Eunuch.
I did it because I had no other choice.
Thank you for your help.
Don't thank me.
I still need to thank you.
If the Night-Glowing Pearl wasn't stolen, His Majesty wouldn't be angry.
That drove the previous Chief eunuch to commit suicide.
That is why I landed this position.
He killed himself for this mistake.
I didn't know that would happen.
Xiao Chuan, look.
Heaven has a reason for us being here in Qin.
Don't blame yourself.
Look at you.
You got the plague, and you lived.
Got sold to be a slave at the great wall, and still lived
and cured Empress's illness.
This is a miracle in a miracle.
Let us toast to this miracle.
Don't think too much.
You must look to the future.
Look at me. Such a stupid person can even come this far.
Xiao Chuan ah,
based on your intelligence, you should be better off than me.
How about this... I'll go and ask Niang Niang for help.
Maybe you can have an official position or something.
No need.
Don't feel bad.
To go up, you must be ruthless.
Plus, in 2010, it's normal to live off of women.
Not everyone can do it.
Just think of the King as the President of a company and Niang Niang is the wife of the president.
You need to have some sort of relationship and get a manager position.
Eh, I say Lao Gao,
you used to be quite honest.
Why are you so scheming now?
How are metals made?
I also went from a small mouse, and step by step, became a big wolf.
Small Mouse... Big Bad wolf.
Aiyah. I sit here everyday drinking wine. I can't follow the changes in the world anymore.
I'm already thinking about future matters.
Didn't you say the King will die in a several years?
Yes, I said it before.
Didn't we change our new back up?
Didn't history say that Zhao Gao will be in power?
I just used my power in the palace to find this person and
develop a good relationship to pave the road for the future.
Let me tell you,
Zhao Gao is a corrupt official.
He destroyed the Qin Empire.
What's wrong with you?
What does the fall of Qin got anything to do with us?
As long as we get away that's fine.
You can't tell anyone any of this. Otherwise, we will be killed.
About the Night Glow Pearl, I've already informed his Majesty
it's the fault of the four guarding Eunuchs.
Then how are the four of them right now?
They've all been punished or killed.
Five people's lives.
Five people's lives die in my hands.
We are doing a big task right now! Don't consider small matters!
Five people's lives!
Don't think like that!
I'm going to the toilet. Keep eating.
Before, you were the kitchen master who was afraid and had no courage.
Who only took small advantages.
I can't believe you've become a greedy and ambitious official,
wholeheartedly becoming a corrupt Eunuch.
It's all the fault of Cui Wen Ze.
It's all because of him.
Doctors care very much about visits.
When I heard your footsteps entering and your ugly face now,
I knew...
Today, you will definitely give me trouble!
If you know yourself, that's good..
Take it out!
Take... Take what?
The Night-Glowing Pearl.
Five people's lives...
The Chief Eunuch and the other four Eunuchs... All died because of this pearl.
You knew of this outcome.
Why do you make me steal this stone?
When you did this, you should have known the outcome!
But you didn't think, and you went and did it.
Why?
Because I fell into your trap.
Why aren't you looking at my eyes?
Because you haven't said the truth.
At the time, you were only thinking about one person.
That was Yu Shu.
You already put other people at the back of your brain.
You're right.
I intentionally did not think about it.
Because Yu Shu is my everything.
If she is your everything, then you should save her!
If you want to save a person's life, then there must be a sacrifice.
Sometimes it can be an enemy, or a stranger.
Sometimes, you must sacrifice your own friends.
Last time, when I saved you...
I'd already sacrificed Su Su for your health!
Just die.
I am a Doctor.
Do you know how much I suffered a lot?
You dare to ask me?
There isn't one person that can save everyone.
To save the people you care about,
that is already lucky enough.
Forget it.
Let bygones be bygones...
Don't think too much...
In this world of no tomorrow,
it's best if you don't put grief in your heart for too long.
Xiao Chuan ah,
that Night Glowing Pearl
is untouched.
When you want it,
then you will know it's importance.
I'm tired.
Help me pour the medicine.
But there is still something I don't understand.
Everyone in the palace at that time was dead...
Why would you be ok
and safe?
I don't know about that either.
The plague this time
is similar to a very deadly flu.
Otherwise...
maybe it's because all the modern people have gotten the vaccine.
Workers like me who work outside all the time have gotten all kinds of vaccine shots.
It must be the vaccines starting to take effect.
Perhaps it's because I'm lucky.
You've thought about it for such a long time
and give me that kind of answer?
Hmm... you could be right!
Life and death are within the will of heaven.
But, don't forget,
your life had already given by me.
You must protect my property well.
Who's your property?
Don't waste time, pour the medicine.
While I was ill, you haven't stopped the research have you?
- No. - Good.
No matter what happens,
the research must not stop.
Give me the report.
This ancient female corpse,
according to the bones,
was between 22 and 26 years old.
Height is about 157cm.
The chest cavity, there's a wound pierced by an object.
She died of excessive bleeding.
The restoration of the face... How's the progress?
The answer could be coming out.
This corpse is over two thousand years old.
So everyone is very interested in how she looked.
I have already arranged for a discussion seminar.
At the final stage of the restoration, we'll make public the result of the discussion.
You will be responsible for this seminar.
So now, start to seriously prepare your presentation.
This is part of your PhD thesis.
Ok.
What's up?
Let me ask you, why is your mobile not on?
Why can't I find you?
I am working on a very important seminar here.
What seminar is so important?
It has something to do with my thesis.
By the way,
Beauty Seminar.
