Chronicle of Life
Episode 26
His Majesty has arrived!
I give my greetings to the Empress Dowager.
I give my greetings to Empress Dowager.
- You may rise.
Thank you Empress Dowager.
I knew that Your Majesty would follow her here.
Are you that uneasy leaving her in my hands?
I just conveniently followed her here to pay my respects.
That's good.
I'm asking you to borrow someone and
this person is right in front of my eyes, Wei Lin Lang.
Spring is coming soon,
my respiratory issues have come again.
I don't have many clever maids by my side.
Lin Lang, are you willing to come and help me for a couple days?
It is my luck for being able to serve you.
You are an understanding child.
Your Majesty, please rest assured.
No one will bully her while she's by my side.
I'm not worried about that.
I'm worried that Wei Lin Lang is too clumsy,
I'm afraid she won't serve you well.
I think she's a clever one.
- Let me have her. - Alright.
Wei Lin Lang,
stay here and serve Imperial Grandmother well.
When Imperial Grandmother's health is better, then return back to the imperial court.
Yes.
I will take my leave.
Are you familiar with Ci Ning Palace's eunuchs and maids?
Yes.
Lin Lang,
Come closer, let me take a good look at you.
Yes.
Eyebrows, eyes,
aura...
You look like...
You favor the Empress Dowager Duan Jin.
No wonder Empress Dowager doesn't like you.
Do you know who Empress Dowager Duan Jing was?
I don't know.
Grand Empress Dowager,
Reporting to Grand Empress Dowager, these books probably got moistened.
They are all impossible to read.
- Then get someone to copy them again. - Yes.
Lin Lang,
are you literate?
I know a little.
Books can be thrown away,
but it's impossible to throw away a person's knowledge.
Lin Lang, why don't you copy them?
Yes.
- Your Majesty. - How did it go?
Reporting to Your Majesty, I heard from Ci Ning Palace that
Grand Empress Dowager has made Lin Lang copy books about rules and regulations of being a woman.
After she has finished copying them, she will come back.
Since when has the Grand Empress Dowager not had enough people to serve her?
This is obviously her teaching Lin Lang a lesson.
Your Majesty, being able to take a lesson from Grand Empress Dowager is her good fortune.
Copying that many books,
it's best that she doesn't get exhausted from it.
I give my greetings to the Grand Empress Dowager.
You may rise.
Why are you doing chores?
Replying to the Grand Empress Dowager,
I was afraid that since your asthma hasn't been resolved yet, you must not be exposed to dust.
That's why I decided to clean more.
You're a really caring maiden.
You're hoping that I will get better swiftly
so that you can return to His Majesty's side as soon as possible.
the Grand Empress Dowager's good health
is good fortune for everyone including His Majesty.
You're good with words.
Tell me honestly, do you miss His Majesty?
Even if you do, you must tolerate it.
This is what being His Majesty's woman means and what you must do.
But I... don't want to tolerate it.
Because the feeling of missing someone,
is the only thing a person can do
when they're the most helpless.
If I even have to tolerate the feeling of missing someone,
then I can't do anything for His Majesty.
Even if you can't tolerate anything,
you're still just a maid, what can you do for His Majesty?
What I can do for His Majesty
is to put his heart at ease.
I have offended Grand Empress Dowager, please forgive me.
His Majesty has arrived!
I give my greetings to the Grand Empress Dowager.
Your Majesty, rise.
Imperial Grandmother,
did this maid do anything without thinking about it first?
Do you need me to take her back so I can teach her a lesson?
It's nothing that big.
Everyone rise.
Thank you, Imperial Grandmother.
Thank you, Grand Empress Dowager.
Your Majesty.
Your Majesty has come early to give your greetings.
Are the public affairs really not that important?
I was worried about your health.
- Eunuch De, - Yes.
I brought the best medicine to give to you.
I hope that your health will improve as soon as possible.
Good, good.
You're all hoping that I will get better soon.
You're both have the same frame of mind.
I'm not that ill.
Your Majesty, you should focus on important affairs. Unless there's something serious to tell me, you don't have to trouble yourself to come here.
Lin Lang is with me.
You should rest assured.
Thank you for your advice.
Your Majesty, you should eat more.
By the time Lady Lin Lang gets back,she might notice that your thinner.
I don't want to eat anymore.
(Ci Ning Palace)
You put out the sleeping incense
then all the more I won't be able to sleep soundly.
I'm just afraid that with this sleeping incense
the Grand Empress Dowager will cough more.
Requesting the Grand Empress Dowager to close your eyes.
Grand Empress Dowager, calm your heart.
Don't think of anything.
Calm your heart and you will be able to sleep soundly.
No need.
This book, A Woman's Notes, that you are copying
is in the handwriting of Empress Dowager Duan Jin.
The handwriting of Empress Dowager Duan Jin is really beautiful.
Her handwriting
for one, is not the only thing that is beautiful,
but she was also beautiful.
She was Emperor Shuenzhi's most favorite wife.
And also because of her,
the late Emperor went against his subjects
and forcibly married his brother's wife.
And also because of her
received all the attention of the late Emperor.
The late Emperor
ceased to frequent all of his other inner palace wives.
Not only that.
Even with his own son, the current Emperor,
he also did not bother to take care of anymore.
The Empress Dowager Duan Jing
was a lucky woman.
A woman getting the Emperor's whole attention,
of course is a lucky thing.
But this good luck
was obtained from other's bad luck.
Do you understand?
I understand it completely.
Thank you for teaching me, Grand Empress Dowager.
Reporting to Grand Empress Dowager,
the Emperor fainted from early on.
What's going on?
As to the exact situation, I still don't know.
But Imperial Physician Zhong is already currently treating the Emperor.
Desist! His Majesty's sickness is unstable.He shouldn't be bothered.
Grand Empress Dowager.
Forgive me for being incapable.
His Majesty's symptoms are really rare.
I cannot fully diagnose the cause of His Majesty illness.
So I wrote His Majesty a strong prescription.
But whether His Majesty can wake up will depend on the outcome the Heavens have fated.
Let me see the prescription.
How dare you!
You dare give His Majesty such a strong drug?
Are you planning to kill the Emperor?
Grand Empress Dowager.
His Majesty's source of distress is unclear.I am incapable.
I can only try this method.
This drug
has strong effects.
I want assurance that when the Emperor drinks this
his body will be able to withstand it.
You drink it first!
Spare my life, Grand Empress Dowager.
This drug cannot be taken by people who are not sick.
It's really dangerous.
You don't even dare to drink it and yet you prescribed it for the Emperor to drink?!
Grand Empress Dowager, what should we do?
His Majesty's illness must be treated.
Allow me to do it.
Grand Empress Dowager,I am willing to test the medicine for His Majesty.
Grand Empress Dowager,there seems to be no problem with this drug.
His Majesty can drink it.
Good.
His Majesty has arrived.
- Greetings to His Majesty.- Rise.
Imperial Grandson greets his Imperial Grandmother.
- Stand already.- Thank you, Imperial Grandmother.
Imperial Grandmother, why are you here?
I am here to return Lin Lang to you.
Thank you, Imperial Grandmother.
Lin Lang, remember the words I said.
Yes.
Let's go.
Sending off the Grand Empress Dowager.
Lin Lang, what did Imperial Grandmother say to you?
Lady Lin Lang, I'm sorry.I was forced to do so.
This girl is really sincere towards His Majesty.
Empress Dowager Duan Jing treated Fu Lin also just as sincerely.
I am just afraid that the Emperor will follow in his father's footsteps.
Why were you so stupid?
If it's really poison,you're still willing to drink it?
I really thought that Your Majesty was sick.
I cannot mind that much anymore.
I know that you have me in your heart.
Remember that whatever happens in the future,
you must not die for me.No matter what happens to me,
you must not risk your life for me.Do you understand?
This... I cannot do it.
You...
Reporting to Your Majesty.
Since Your Majesty's return from the Protect the Country Temple to pray for rain,
it started to rain in the Zhi Li Ru Nan area after a few days.
The citizens were celebrating.
Everyone knows that this is due to Your Majesty's grace.
This is not my grace.
This is the Heavens grace.
- Ming Zhu- Your subject is here.
Spread by decree: I want to personally visit Zhi Li
and oversee the disaster relief efforts.
To also check the real situation of the citizens and to appease those that are affected.
Your subject will follow your command.
Your Majesty's action will definitely win the citizens' heart
and their submission.
Your Majesty's action will definitely win the citizens' heart

De Gong Gong.
- De Gong Gong.- What is it?
This is Eunuch Chang Qing.
He was sent by the Empress Dowager to serve His Majesty.
Wait a minute.
Your Majesty,the Empress Dowager sent Chang Qing to serve along side you.
The Empress Dowager said that Chang Qing is loyal, smart, and sensible.
And already has experience in buying necessities outside the Palace.
For Your Majesty's trip to supervise the relief efforts,please allow Chang Qing to be at your command.
Go to the dispensary later
and get some high-quality supplements.
- Send them to Ci Ren Palace.- Yes.
Gong Gong.
Your family has a message for you.
Who are you?
It's not important who I am.Your family in the south misses you.
Heavens will and the people's will are in conflict.Gazing at one's home town for a long time but never able to return.
We have prepared everything..(Fourth Marker)
Follow the plan inscribed on the marker.
Everyone listen.
His Majesty will temporarily stay here for the night.
- Everyone should be on their guard.- Yes!
Your Majesty, it's time to sleep now.
Wait a minute.
Your Majesty, this is the dress you requested.
Lin Lang, hurry and change into it.
After changing clothes, where are we going?
Your Majesty, where are you going?Bring me with you too.
This doesn't concern you.
Leave the dress here and you may leave.
I'll take my leave.
Your Majesty, where are we really going?
First, don't ask.Second, if you don't change now,
then I'll help you change personally.
I'll change by myself.
I'll also change into mine.
(Chen Rice Store)
Coming.
We're closed already.If you have anything, just come back tomorrow.
Shopkeeper,
Is there anyone here that can decipher an inscribed bamboo stick?
Come inside.
I heard that Mister knows how to decipher an inscribed bamboo stick.
Do you know what the meaning of
this bamboo stick of mine?
Heavens will and the people's will are in conflict.
Gazing on your hometown for so long, but never able to return.
Brother
Your stick is a very unlucky stick.
I am asking for somebody else.
The person you are asking for is in danger for his life.
That person is going on a trip.
I am afraid he might not be able to come back.
If that is the case, the better.
Could you be the one from Yu Juo Dai?
I am Abunai's son, Asihai.
I am Wu Zi Mo.
I have one thing I don't understand.
What is your status now inside the Palace?
This you don't need to know.
Yu Cuo has been dead for some time now.
Why did you wait until now to find me?
There was no chance since I came back to the Palace.
Yu Cuo believes you,
but why should I and Godfather believe you?
My life
was picked up (saved) from a pile of dead people.
My whole family died at the hands of that Dog Emperor.
If you don't believe me,I don't care.
With my own hands,
I still can make that Dog Emperor,
not able to return.
Wait.
To complete the grand plan of Godfather,
we must communicate continuously to make sure the plan will go smoothly.
It's just that to kill that Dog Emperor,
you have to be willing to risk your life.
Nonsense.
Good Brother.Come.
Drink all of this.
Let's do a large-scale thing.
You can skip calling me brother.
Let's use this wine to toast our trip
to successfully kill that Dog Emperor.
In the next few days, you should take care of
all unimportant things around you.
Once our plan starts,
your heart must not have any worries or hindrances.
I understand.
Please.
Come.
Head Eunuch of Xin Zhe Ku's kitchen.
I just went out to buy some ingredients.
You may go.
Let's climb over the wall.
I don't know how.
No problem.I'll teach you.
It's really fun.
Guess who I am.
A little cat who likes to eat.
I am a little cat?Then you are a little dog.
A lying little dog.
You promised to take me to eat candied fruit.
I'm sorry.I forgot it again.
Okay.Let's go...
Who goes there?
Sir, it looks like His Majesty.
Are we going to chase after them?
Just follow them.Don't alarm them.
Yes.Let's go.
What do you want?
Candied fruit!
Brother Chang Qing, you are really wonderful.
Taste it.
Come...
The two of you go there.The rest come with me.
Let's go...
You're here.
Today is the Mooncake Festival.
Mooncake Festival is a day for family reunions.
I'll spend it with you.
This is my first time to celebrate a holiday with Brother Ye San.
Next time,
we will spend a lot more holidays together, right?
Of course.I will forever hang on you.
Even if you try to swipe me off,you won't be able to.
Fine, I will just let you hang on me forever.
- Say, he's selling candied fruit.- Candied fruit!
You want to eat some?
Customer, have one.
I'll look around first.
Go buy one.
This one is delicious.It's newly cooked.
- We'll take that one.- Fine..
- Here.-I give this to you.
- Good, thank you.- It looks delicious.
Taste it and see if it tastes good.
- Is it delicious?- Delicious.
Have a taste also.
Walk carefully.Come back if it's delicious.
Let's get back.
Brother Chang Qing, this is all my money.Take it.
What are you doing?
Brother Chang Qing, this is my dowry.
I want to marry you.
You are really a stupid girl.
But...but I want to be with Brother Chang Qing.
Masks!Fun masks!
- Masks!- Let's take a look.
Masks, come take a look.
This is fun.
Choose anything you like.
You should wear this.
Liang'er, how about this one?
Tiger and Little Rabbit.
It's so nice!
Brother Chang Qing
can you go with me to watch fireworks on every Mooncake Festival?
Alright?
Yes.
These next few days
you should take care of all unimportant things around you.
Once the plan starts,
your heart must not have worries or hindrances.
Are you tired?
I felt fine until you mentioned it.Now, I can't even walk anymore.
Then what should we do?
You... carry me.
Carry you...I can.But...
You have to sing for me.
- Yes.- Fine.
Good.
♫ Slowly, gently ♫
♫ Slowly, slowly, gently ♫
♫ Baby, baby, don't be afraid ♫
Say, who sang it better, me or Duan Min?
Duan Min?Why are you suddenly mentioning her?
Just answer.
Of course it's you.In my heart, who can be better than you?
Next time this Carriage Song, other than you, I will not allow any other to sing it.
Is that alright?
Fine then, continue singing.
♫ The tiger is here ♫
♫ Mother will hug you to sleep ♫
Did you see that?The rows of servants are numerous.
Is that the Dragon Carriage?
Right...
I heard previously from the old ones...
There are a lot of tomb stones here,
but some without any markers.Who were the people buried there?
That's the Disorder Cemetery.
The ones buried there are rebels and traitors.
That's weird.
Sir, what's wrong?
Nothing.Let's go.
Yes.
