Rong Ruo.
You're sure you want to do this?
One lifetime, one generation, one pair.
I vow,
after I marry Cui Jun,
I will never have another woman in my life.
It's noon. Prepare to go.
Sister. I don't allow you to go.
Hua Zhu.
I won't let. you go.
- Yun Chu.- Sister...

The wedding is to be carried out on an auspicious date. The Notice of Marriage is to be posted publicly.
Receive with admiration.
Cui Jun receives with admiration.
Thank His Majesty's royal grace.
Maiden Cui Jun,
congratulations.
Thank you, Eunuch.
Sister Cui Jun, how come you're still not asleep?
If you're up all night like this, you'll be a bride with black circles.
Don't worry. You go to sleep first.
Cui Jun, you're so pretty today.
Cui Jun.Lin Lang.
Sister Lin Lang.
You're here. Come sit down.
Cui Jun, this is for you.
I don't have anything valuable.
But these, I made them personally.
My dowry gift to you.
You made them so pretty.
Lin Lang, you're so good to me.
These things are especially valuable to me.
I will cherish them well.
Also...
this is a jade flute for you as well.
Isn't this your favorite possession?
I won't take it.
From now on,
this is yours.
Lin Lang,
you're so good to me.
Lin Lang, I will forever remember
the fact that Sir Nalan and I can have this day
is all due to you.
My gratitude I feel
I can't put it to words.
Lin Lang, accept a bow from me.
Cui Jun.
Get up, foolish girl.
Why are you such a fool.
Lin Lang, I can't be without you.
I can't spare you guys.
I don't either.
Cui Jun Jie Jie, I can't spare either.(Jie Jie - Older sister)
Alright now, it's a auspicious day today. Let's not cry.
You won't be pretty if you cry away your makeup.
Congratulations to Sir Nalan and Madam Nalan.
May the prosperous union be everlasting.
May sister and brother-in-law be in harmony forever.Bear a child soon.
Sir Nalan, no, Brother-In-Law.
Don't you think us sisters of hers get a red envelope?
Hua Zhu, don't play.
Hey, you haven't married him yet. You're taking his side already?
Thank you, Brother-In-Law.
Sir Nalan, no need for me.
Hey, Lin Lang, you should take it for good luck.
Maybe you can one day marry a handsome and talented man like Sir Nalan as well.
Lin Lang, take it.
I hope you have a good home in the future as well.
Thank you, Sir Nalan.
Why staying in a daze around here?
Sir Nalan, hurry and carry your bride to the carriage.
I don't know when we will ever see Sister Cui Jun again.
Lower the carriage.
♫ Winter and Spring have passed away ♫
♫ Summer ends with Autumn wind ♫♫ pear blossoms fall by rain ♫
♫ Clear water and blue wave ♫
♫ She hums the song in whisper with languish ♫
Young Mistress, you should get some rest soon.
Is the banquet finished?
Yes, some time ago.
Why hasn't Sir Nalan returned?
Young Master drank a lot and he went to his study to rest.
He says not to wait up for him.
Where are you going, Young Mistress?
I'm going to brew hangover tonic for Master.
I don't think that's proper. Let me do it.
I wish for Sister Cui Jun
to be forever joyful and happy.
There.
Brother Chang Qing, look.
This was from Sir Nalan when we sent off the bride.
Hua Zhu says this is to harvest some luck.
So we can all end up in a nice home, married to a nice man.
What kind of a nice man do you want to marry?
Someone who protects me like a big brother.
Can make me delicious food, with a good heart.
If that could be Brother Chang Qing,
then that would be the best.

He's already gone.
Fu Guei Er, he's so good.You're hungry already, right?
Here, let's eat this.
This is so delicious.Hurry and taste it.Come, baby, eat...
Eat...
Useless people!
What use do I have with you?You cannot even serve a dog well.
Fu Guei Er, come...
Let's play on the ground, okay?Here...
Go play.
Look at him.What in Hades is his problem?
Doesn't have a bit of energy...
Greetings, Empress Dowager!
My Fu Guei Er and you really have fate.
Thank you Empress Dowager for your praise.
I have just liked pets since I was little.
Liked to play with them.
Look at it...Fu Guei Er knows how to sense someone else's feelings.
He knows very well who treats him well.
Empress Dowager is right.
You look like you're smart and sensible.
What's your name?Where do you work?
Responding to Empress Dowager, my name is Chang Qing.I work in Xin Zhe Ku.
I'm thanking Your Majesty's grace in behalf of Cui Jun.
Little girl!What are you doing?
Your Majesty...
Greetings, Your Majesty.
- Get up.- Thank you, Your Majesty.
Next time, don't call the wrong person again.
Master
Master, let me do it.
No need.I can do it myself.
I'm sorry.I just might be unused to it yet.
No worries.I am too.
I'm going to work.I'll go now.
So this is his study...
Who is the girl in this painting?
- That is...- Don't say too much.
Responding to Young Madam,I don't know who the girl in the painting is.
Brother Chang Qing,you changed your clothes?
It's not that I changed my clothes,it's my workplace that has changed.
Are you going to another place to work already?
I am now serving the Empress Dowager at Ci Ren Palace.
Sister Cui Jun has gone.
Now, even you are going too?
Will I not be able to see you anymore?
Stupid girl, of course you will be able to still see me.
I've never seen these snacks before.
Taste it.
No, I can't bear to.
Serving the Empress Dowager is definitely very hard.
You won't be able to come see me often anymore.
These snacks I will keep for now.
I'll eat them slowly.
Stupid girl...
Even if I'm very busy,I will still come to see you.
Brother Chang Qing,how about if I marry you?
What are you saying?
Brother Chang Qing...
I...I want to marry you.Are you willing to marry me?
I am a eunuch.
So what if you are a eunuch?I am also a servant.
As long as you like me and I like you,why can't we be together?
A eunuch cannot marry and have kids.
- Why can't you?- Stop asking!
Who can understand the sadness and coldness of the autumn wind?
Yellow leaves fall on the window
One person stands under the sunset sky and reminisces
Sleeping drunk during spring time
Reading books and guessing puzzles with friends to get through the wonderful days
But that time only felt that it was natural, didn't treasure it much.
Master, the night is already deep.You should go and rest now.
I still have official matters.
You go and sleep first.
The person in this painting looks familiar.
Really?I just randomly painted that.
Master, rest early after finishing your work.
I know.
Young Madam, Master said that he will be sleeping in the study instead, because of so many official matters.
He asks that you go to sleep early.
I know already.
Who's the one playing the zither.
Replying to Young Master's Wife, it's Young Master.
How come this tune sounds very familiar?
Do you know what he is playing?
I don't know...
Sister Cui Jun, why are you still not asleep?
If you do not sleep all night,you will have become a bride with black eyes...
It's nothing.You go sleep first.

Your Majesty, since we're accompanying Lin Lang to the Palace, why are we not walking beside her?
I don't want her to feel uneasy.
Your Majesty really treats Lin Lang well.
Meddlesome.
Why does is this path not lighted?
Responding to Your Majesty, this path is going to the residence of court ladies and eunuchs.
It's rare that someone will pass through here so it's not worth to light (candles) anymore.
Your Majesty
If you want to repair the lamp,you can just order me to do it.
I am not disabled.No need for you to meddle too much.
- I will do it myself.- Alright...
Master.
Master really played well.I really hate myself for not knowing how to play any kind of instrument.
Hence, I cannot accompany your zither with a flute.
I don't know if
Master can teach me a tune on this?
Where did you get this porcelain jade flute?
This is a dowry gift, given to me by my best friend, Lin Lang.
Can you give it to me?
Of course. We are already married.All that's mine is yours.
Master, can you teach me to play a tune on the flute?
I better just teach you to play the zither.
Alright.
Master
the fact that we could have this day
is thanks to Lin Lang begging Your Majesty.
She hopes for me to be blissful the most.
Since today Master is going into the Palace for duty,can you give these dolls to her?
Tell her that we are very blissful.
That, I'm afraid, is not convenient.
Master just take them with you.
Your Majesty granted us this marriage himself.He most likely will not mind these small things.
Your subject, Nalan Rong Ruo, is here to see you, Your Majesty.
- Get up.- Thank you, Your Majesty.
Rong Ruo
I have some documents here I want to discuss with you.
Yes.
I'll take my leave.
- It's really strange.- What is it?
Young Master and his wife has been married for several days already.
But Young Master hasn't entered her bed chamber once.
Right.
Could it be that Young Master is disgusted with his wife's
low background, coming from Xi Zhe Ku?
Master is not that kind of person.
The one he liked previously...
Stop it. Let's not gossip anymore.Let's go to work now.
Let's go.
Is Cui Jun well?
She's...very good.
I hired a teacher to teach her to read and write.
That's what she liked to do most.
I hope Master Nalan can take good care of Cui Jun.
Who is the girl in this painting?
- That is...- Hey, don't talk too much.
I don't know who that person in the drawing is.
Young Madam, were you looking for me?
Do you know who the girl in the painting is?
Young Madam, I do not know.
Young Madam, I know my mistake already.I won't do it again.
This slap is to tell you that I am this mansion's young master's wife.
My marriage was granted by His Majesty himself.
If you dare to lie to me,careful I'll ripped your mouth off.
Your Madam please spare my life.I know my mistake already.
Do you now remember who this girl in the painting is?
Your Majesty, it's already past noon.It's time to eat now.
I'm still not hungry.
Serve the lunch.
Yes.
Leave now.
These assorted rice cakes are the favorite of Imperial Grandmother.
You go and bring this to Ci Ning Palace.
Yes.
You.Go and taste each dish.
I dare not.
This is the rule.
If you don't taste it first,what if there's poison, what will we do then?
Then must I taste each dish?
- Of course.- Surely.
Your Majesty, I've already tasted all the dishes.
There's no problem.
I still am not at ease.
Go taste it one more time.
Alright.
As expected, when Your Majesty sees Lin Lang, his appetite improves.
Eunuch De
Do palace maids of the Emperor who service him during meal need to taste His Majesty's food?
Before you, there's never been that rule.
As long as the eunuch tastes it then it's okay already.
Then why did His Majesty want me to taste it?
Stupid girl. Your Majesty wanted you to taste them because he knows that you were hungry.
Master
Master, you're back.
Let me do it.
Master, this necklace really looks good.
Can you gift it to me?
If you like it,
I'll just order them to make you another one.
This necklace is already broken.
This necklace is already damaged but Master still carries it all the time.
It must have a very special meaning.
If Master can give me the necklace,
when Master is not beside me,
I can think of Master when I just look at that necklace.
Master has the jade flute I gave you,
while I have the jade necklace you gave me.
Depending on each other, accompanying each other.
It's like as Master said: "One life, one generation, one pair"
If you really like it,
then just take it.
Thank you, Master.I will definitely treasure this.
By the way, Master.
We have been married for several days now.I think it's time to enter the palace and give our thanks.
What do you think Master?
I brought my wife so that we can thank you for your grace.
Wishing Your Majesty thousands of luck and good health.
Rise up and speak.
Thank you, Your Majesty.
Your Majesty, I was able to receive Your Majesty's pardon.
My heart is forever thankful.
I also frequently miss my friendship with Lin Lang.
Requesting Your Majesty to permit me to talk with Lin Lang privately.
Oh... then the two of you go talk.
Thank you, Your Majesty.
I'll take my leave.
Your Majesty, I want to take a 1 month's leave.
I hope that Your Majesty can allow it.
- I will allow it.- Thank you, Your Majesty.
Little De
- Bring me my sword.- Yes.
Rong Ruo, do you dare to practice with me?
I'll follow your order.
Cui Jun,
I really miss you.
Lin Lang,
are we good sisters? (best friends)
Yes.
Since we entered the palace,
we were always by each other's side.
Eating together.Sleeping together.
I tell you everything.
Even the fact that I like Sir Nalan, I told you.
But how about you?
Do you have something you are hiding from me?
Cui Jun, let me explain. I...
I already told you during the Imperial Expedition that I liked Nalan Rong Ruo.
I even showed you the scroll he gave me.
I told you such a big secret.
But you never even said anything.
Wei Lin Lang,
you already knew Na Lan Rong Ruo from before, but you never told me a thing.
I feel like a fool in front of you.How long did you plan to hide this from me?
Cui Jun...
That was already in the past.
Right now, he is already your husband.
If I know that he is someone you like,
I would never marry him even if I died from flogging.
I will not fight because of a man with you
But fate just liked to play with us.
I unexpectedly became a criminal
who stole someone else's lover.
Cui Jun, this is not your fault.
You said that he is already my husband.
But do you know that
since we've been married,
he has never entered my room.
Writing poems about his yearning for you.
Playing tunes about his yearning for you.
When he misses you,
he will look at this necklace.
The study wall is full of his poems for you,
portraits of you.
Even though I am his wife,but we are like strangers.
Lin Lang
Do you know that we both are living in your shadow?
Do you know, Lin Lang?
I'm sorry...
I'm sorry, Cui Jun. I'm sorry.
- Lin Lang- Cui Jun
Lin Lang, I'm begging you.
Since the Heavens have already sent Rong Ruo to my side,
and he has become my man,
then I beg you
to forget him, alright?
Give him to me completely.
Don't have anything to do with him from now on.
Even thinking, you cannot think of him.
Even if you're just seeing him in your dreams,you are wronging me.
Okay, Lin Lang?I'm begging you.
Get up first, Cui Jun.Get up.
- Cui Jun- Lin Lang
Promise me, okay?
I promise you.I promise you.
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry...
I love him so much.
