It's snowing?
Yes.
It was still sunny yesterday,
but all of a sudden this morning, the snowflakes have covered the sky.
This way, Second Miss.
I can do it myself.
Do you like standing a lot?
Such a charismatic man.
The "8th Virtuous Prince".
But is hated by his own father because of a throne.
Stripped of his title. Imprisoned till death.
Second Miss, please.
If I don't go back,
Jie'jie will get worried.
Li Fu.
Master.
Send Second Miss back.
Yes.
Feelings. No feelings.
For fun. For real.
-What the heck do you want? -Ruoxi.
Coming!
Ruoxi
Jie'jie, I'm coming!
Why are you so flustered?
What's wrong?
Nothing.
Jie'jie, sit.
His Majesty gave the 10th Prince a new residence.
The wedding is in three day's time.
I will be accompanying Bei'le there.
Are you going?
Why make things complicated?
It's best that I don't go.
That's fine.
I will help you explain.
Don't always looks so distracted and uneasy.
You'll make people worry.
I'm leaving.
Second Miss.
Aside from the major festivals and events when she has to pay her respects to Di'fujin,
she usually does not walk around.
The other side is already very unsatisfied.
If you don't attend Princess Mingyu's wedding,
I'm afraid that Madam will be blamed again.
They will say we have no manners.
What's wrong?
No matter how grand a house is, it's still just a gilded cage.
You promised me that you definitely won't make a scene today.
Jie'jie, don't worry.
Death-defying 13th sister is here to attend a wedding.
To drink nuptial wine.
I'm not here to cause trouble.
Let's go.
Jie'jie.
Head in first.
I want to take a breather outside.
I'll go look for you in a bit.
Alright.
Maertai Ruoxi.
It's 10th brother's big day today.
No matter what, you still need to smile.
Greetings, 4th Prince.
Rise.
There are rumors that you have gone crazy over 10th brother.
But based on my knowledge of your personality,
it's unlikely that you would fall for my straightforward 10th brother.
But then you look so forlorn now.
So I can't be sure either way.
Are you trying to pry an answer out of me?
Or are you looking for someone to commiserate with?
Since we've already met,
I might as well just ask.
Six words.
Make the best out of it.
Understand?
The strongest wood can break.
The donkey head does not match a horse's mouth.
Your idiom is wrong.
My language isn't good.
Only you can use idioms?!
10th Prince, I am begging you.
Please go out.
Don't just sit here.
Please go out.
10th Prince, I am begging you.
8th Prince, 14th Prince.
-What should we do? -Go prepare.
Your master will come out in a bit.
Yes.
What?
You're here already, but you still want to hide?
8th brother.
I can't take this lying down.
Others can't marry a princess from the Guoluoluo family even if they wished that in their dreams.
What are you unhappy with?
Then, what about 8th brother's Di'fujin?
Do you love her?
-You don't... -10th brother.
How can you talk to 8th brother like that?
Ming Hui was granted to me by Imperial Father as my Di'fujin.
She is Heshuo efu's precious daughter.
Just based on these two facts,
the position of the 8th Prince's consort is rightfully hers.
And in this life time, only she can be the one.
This is my answer.
As a prince,
even if you have all the riches in the world,
there are still sacrifices to be made.
8th brother.
An upstanding man cannot be brought down by the tangles of love.
Marry a wife that can help you in the future,
that can make Imperial Father happy.
That's the most important.
Love between man and woman is but a lovely dream.
It is not everlasting.
Since you are so afraid of the cold,
why stand out here in the chilling wind?
Why aren't you drinking inside?
I asked you first.
Greetings, 13th Prince.
The one waiting for your greetings is inside the house.
Rise.
Today, you and I are both of mourning hearts.
Why don't you be my companion?
What's wrong with 13th Prince today?
Two people of saddened hearts?
Maybe he likes Princess Mingyu?
Take a sip.
Take another sip.
You wait here.
Heavens!
In the future, I will never provoke Princess Mingyu again.
This 13th Prince is too fearsome.
A lighter?
Your Imperial Father was the one who married your sweetheart to someone else.
This isn't related to me at all!
Please don't torture me any longer!
I don't want to die for no reason by your bullying hands.
No way, big brother.
I don't have your liquor capacity.
Madam, Master.
Master, Madam.
I've been to the 13th Prince's residence and asked around.
13th Prince is not there.
No one knows where he is.
Send some reliable men and wait outside his residence.
Don't alert anyone else.
Report back once there is news.
Yes.
Although 13th brother is tenacious and headstrong,
but no matter what, he still knows the boundaries.
If Ruoxi is with him, she should be safe.
Nothing will go wrong. Don't worry.
I'll stay here tonight
until Ruoxi returns.
Why don't you go and rest?
Come. 13th Prince.
Let's drink to the ever-unchanging moon.
Cheers!
Look at the moon!
It's no different from 300 years later.
Do you know?
In the past, you were nothing more than a name in the book to me.
I never thought that I'd be able to drink with you today.
I was drunk before in the past when I was at Sanlitun.
I secretly drank a little when I was at school.
I drank tequila!
But today, I feel OK after drinking.
O what?
OK!
What does that mean?
No problem.
Look at you. Talking nonsense after drinking.
I'm not from your era.
I am from there.
I'm from 300 years in the future.
But it's so weird.
How did I end up in the Qing dynasty?
And I've even become some
Second Miss of the Maertai family.
And I still have to join the selection for the Imperial harem.
Tell me.
What's a modern day person doing in an Imperial harem selection?
Alright. It's time to go back.
Master, Madam.
Madam, hurry and wake up.
Master, Madam.
They're back.
Second Miss is back. She just got back.
Go take a look and see if there's anything she needs.
Yes.
Be careful.
Be careful not to hurt her.
Slowly.
Go to the kitchen.
-See if they've prepared the ginger soup yet. -Yes.
Are you done?
Yes.
Let me ask you.
Where did you go with 13th Prince yesterday?
Why did you two drink so much wine?
Tell me.
Comfortable.
Great!
Jie'jie.
Second Miss.
Second Miss, wake up.
I'm thirsty.
I'll pour you a glass of water.
Second Miss, here's your water.
What's the time now?
It's already evening.
You've slept for a day.
My head hurts.
Second Miss, you drank so much wine. How could your head not hurt?
I drank big.
What's too big?
I drank big.
You.
Second Miss.
Why don't you wash up and eat with Madam?
She's been worrying about you for the whole day.
-All right? -All right.
Second Miss.
I was hurt. I was sad.
But it's not in the way you think.
Ruoxi.
Jie'jie, I understand.
I promised you
that I wouldn't get in the way of the marriage between 10th Prince and Princess Mingyu.
You've already said it many times
that it could result in losing my head. I know!
It's good that you know.
Actually, free love
does not mean that it would result in a relationship.
Blindly entering into a marriage with no way out...
Perhaps that way, they'd actually end up happy for life.
Where did you hear such weird principles from?
What I'm saying is a fact.
Madam, I feel that Second Miss's words make sense.
It's just like us women who only ask for a good home in life.
And for people to treat us well.
Just like the way Bei'le showed care and concern for you last night.
It's also because of Madam.
He's very understanding towards Second Miss's daring and impetuousness.
Who's being daring? Who's being impetuous?
Second Miss.
-Second Miss! -You still dare to run?
-Your servant runs fast. -Stop fooling around.
You're still running?
-Stop fooling around. -Second Miss!
-Stop it.
A few days ago, the Crown Prince already gave the princes
their consorts, princesses, young masters,
and young mistresses their invitations.
For everyone to gather and celebrate.
I know! I know!
There's only one way to describe it.
"I'm bored."
"Everyone come and accompany me!"
I haven't been feeling too well lately.
Tell them I won't be going.
Yes.
-Jie'jie. -Madam.
Why won't you go?
I think Bei'le is definitely going.
If Bei'lei goes, Di'fujin will go too.
If Di'fujin goes and we don't,
aren't we going to lose out?
My sister is so great, who does she need to fight with?
But that being said,
even if you're not riding horses to win,
or doing it for rewards,
it's still an opportunity to exercise the mind and body.
If you're not feeling well,
it's because you're always cooped up in here.
That's why you're sick.
Let's go, Jie'jie.
I don't feel like going.
But I really want to go.
You can stand being stuck in here but I can't.
The Crown Prince is bored. So am I.
Jie'jie, let's go...
Then tell me, Jie'jie
Why do you not want to go?
You don't like horse riding?
If you don't like horse riding,
then why do you like this painted screen?
Imagine this: A herd of wild-spirited horses.
Prancing about in a large expanse of grassland.
Even if you don't go there to ride,
just thinking about it would make you happy.
It's better than looking at a painting, right?
Jie'jie, don't you agree?
Miss, are you thirsty?
I'll pour you a glass of water.
Qiaohui.
I have something to ask you.
What do you want to know, Miss?
Come, let's sit and talk.
I sit?
Yeah, sit!
Today, the painted screen that my sister was looking at,
seems to have a special meaning to her.
Yeah, she'll think of the General.
Who's the General?
Miss, you don't know?
I'm testing you!
You're testing me again?
You've forgotten it, haven't you?
Actually, it's also a good thing that you've forgotten about it.
Why?
Miss, Old Master has already said it.
Whoever brings up this topic again will...
This matter seems to be quite serious.
The Crown Prince is really interesting.
A horse competition will definitely be fun.
Not only do I want to beat the crowd and win all the rewards,
I have to show-off
and let all of the ladies lose because of me.
Why aren't you getting a move on?
You're only the 10th Prince.
Are you expecting to make the Crown Prince wait for you?
I have no intention of making the Crown Prince wait.
I... Never said that I'll be going.
You're not going?
Why not?
Because you're going.
You...
You're really not going?
I'm not going.
Then I really take pity for you.
What is there to pity?
Ruoxi will definitely attend this kind of event.
If you don't go,
you won't be able to see your beloved.
You couldn't marry her, but at least it'll still be good to see her.
What a pity.
The two of you simply aren't fated.
Because you definitely cannot go.
Why not?
Because I insist on going.
Where are you going?
I'm going horse racing. I'm going to see Ruoxi.
-and see her. -You!
Didn't you say you won't go if I go?
Weren't you taking pity for me?
So if I go now, you'll have to be happy for me.
You...!
