♫ When opening my mouth,the words don't have their meaning ♫
♫ Guarding an old dream in the empty hall ♫
♫ Leaves have already fallen. Love has already burnt to it's full. It is beyond me♫
♫ What I miss is the gracefulness in the night. Obviously I dare not touch anymore ♫
♫ Why does my heart recall old ache? ♫
♫ No trace was left of that time leaving into a dream and coming across again ♫
♫ Despite the tearsdeparting the sprouting trees of the spring ♫
♫ The courtyard is profound,but not as profound as the pain, each memory of sorrow or joy turns into a devil ♫
♫ Half of my life spending clinging onto us ♫
♫ It is our fate to abruptly meet and depart, loving and hating like a dream,like a fire, harsh like the wind ♫
♫ Deep in the darkness,our mutual embrace will be endless, so I fear. ♫
♫ On bustling summer and spring,then on autumn and winter. We are all teased by passion and hatred ♫
♫ In our memories the "us" of those yearsis endless ♫
Chronicle of Life
Episode Thirty-six
Pull hard.
Pull harder.
♫ Wind blows and dust opens up the yearnings ♫
Your Majesty.
♫ Warming up the empty palace courtyard ♫
♫ This city with a thousand temples ♫
♫ Unable to separate future from past ♫
♫ Flowers are wet ♫
♫ Your eyes, our youth under the green of the tree ♫
♫ Snow ages us through fleeting time with white roots among our heads ♫
♫ Two people gone ♫
♫ A pair of hands cannot hold up the weight of yesterday ♫
Your foot-licking is not too bad.
♫ Never able to return to the first time ♫
♫ Pear blossoms fallen to abundance ♫
♫ Letting go of yearning but the heart aches again ♫
That mirror from the westerners isn't too bad, right?
♫ With no time given ♫
♫ Pear blossoms have fallen for decades and I'm fortunate to have known you ♫
Brother.
Brother, I thought I'd never see you again.
Since His Majesty has freed you, don't hate him anymore.
Forget the past. Start anew, please?
You just woke up. Have some porridge first.
Consorts offer greetings to the Grand Empress Dowager, the Empress Dowager
and His Imperial Majesty.
Rise.
So many new faces.
How are you settling in?
Many thanks to the Grand Empress Dowager's prosperity,
I and the sisters are well adjusted to our living.
We really should have gotten this place more lively sooner.
The more consorts, the more princes and princesses.
From now on, you all must serve His Majesty well.
If one of you can bear a daughter or son, I will reward you.
Yes, Ma'am.
Grandmother Empress, I summoned Min Zhu to work in the Imperial Library together.
You have official matters. You should go.
Your grandson takes his leave.
Your Consorts bid His Majesty farewell.
If we want a daughter or son, we still need His Majesty to turn our badges.
It's been almost a month,
and His Majesty still ha--
I want you to investigate in detail the case of Abunai's revolt back then.
Find out everything prior and afterwards.
Following Your order.
Rong Ruo.
Your subject is present.You are to assist him.
Following Your order.
I will await your report.
Your subject is to follow Your order.
It looks like His Majesty can't let go of that girl.
Didn't he already exile her from the palace?
That eunuch Chang Qing who was exiled with her...
I heard he was Abunai's son.
What?
His Majesty is having Min Zhu investigate thoroughly the case of Abunai's treason.
I believe he wishes to bring that girl back to Palace one day.
This kind of emotional struggle will one day cause a court calamity.
Then what do you plan to do?
If His Majesty can't spare to do this,
then let this grandmother be the evil doer.
Don't move!
Why didn't you hold it up?
But you told me not to move.
Brother. Liang Er.
Leave it here. I'll do it.
Go inside the house and rest.
Hurry.
Your Majesty, where are you headed?
That's Chu Xuo Palace just ahead.
♫ Winter and Spring have passed away. Summer ends with Autumn wind, pear blossoms fall by rain ♫
Your servants greet His Majesty.
♫ Fragrant snow goes into dream, flute draws out Spring like a hundred turns and a thousand folds ♫
♫ Fate of past life ♫
♫ into this life ♫
♫ A thousand drinks watching the candle burn, a familiar flute song to the ear ♫
♫ Awaken by the shake of bamboo shadow upon the window, could it be a letter you asked the wind to deliver? ♫
♫ The ink under the pen filled with love and regret ♫
♫ Words are like you ♫
♫ breaking my heart ♫
♫ I miss you. My heart shattered by time ♫
♫ Galloping a thousand miles still unable to meet you ♫
Remember, don't miss me too much.
♫ I can only resent loving too late ♫
♫ I wish to go back to the first meeting. To look at you. Admire you in secret.♫
♫ To love you ♫
Greetings to Your Majesty.
Candied fruit. Sugar candied fruit.
Sugar candied fruit.
Come look. Candied fruit.
Customer, buy a candied fruit.
Candied fruit!
Brother Chang Qing, you are so good.
Candied fruit.
Move aside.
Move.
Let's go see. Take a look.
Let's go see. What does it say?
I can't read.
Who can read? Read it to us. What does it say?
His Majesty is granting justice to the disgraced official Abunai.
It says he was forced by Oboi.
But he himself had no intention to revolt.
His Majesty, on the account of his past merits, reinstates his title as Duke along with the granting of a official and formal burial.
The person's already dead. What's a duke title for?
It's true. He's already dead.
He's already gone.
Is your granting justice to Abunai to announce to the world
that you made a mistake executing Abunai?
Yes.
Do you intend to continue and award Oboi a meritorious official pardon as well?
How are you managing affairs?
Are you a fool-headed emperor who takes back his words?
May Grandmother Empress please dispel her anger.
I did in fact act on the case of Abunai without a full inquiry back then.
To amend that now, isn't too late.
If I don't amend knowing the mistake, that would make this person a fool-hearted emperor indeed.
Alright.
Then Abunai's son, Asihai,
infiltrated the palace as an eunuch for many years.
He abetted Wu San Gui to try to kill the Emperor.
Why did you spare him?
Asihai is Abunai's blood.
He came into the palace to avenge.
His fault, I believe, was courted by my doing.
I spared him to spare myself.
You are clearly making excuses.
You are busy all for the sake of that Wei Lin Lang girl.
Grandmother Empress, forgive me.
I have no other way.
My heart only belongs to her.
Foolish child.
Don't you take after your father.
Don't give up Great Qing for the sake of one woman.
Grandmother Empress, I will never walk my father's path.
I want Lin Lang, but I will be a good emperor as well.
These two matters, I can accomplish them both.

Greetings to Your Majesty.
- Rise.- Your Majesty.
Your Majesty decreed an official and formal burial for Abunai.
This is a map of a Lin Yuan Garden my father asked me to give to you.
After this matter is taken care of,
I plan to bring Lin Lang back with full honor.
Su Mo'er.
Your servant's present.
Send someone to find out Wei Lin Lang's whereabouts.
If His Majesty finds out... would he...
Let him hate me.
Still better than letting that woman ruin him.
Father, Mother, you are no longer criminals.
From now on, on every memorial day,
your daughter can be open and honest to pray before your tablets.
Timing & subtitles brought to you by the Gone with the Shirt team@Viki
Brother.
Yun Chu... she is our family too now.
She knows you are fine and without danger. She's probably very happy for you.
Liang Er.
You're not dead?
Why? Disappointed?
What are you doing here?
That dog emperor just granted Abunai justice and now you're on his side already?
Don't you want to know
why this person tried to kill you?
Little De.
Your Majesty.
Tomorrow, have people clean up Chu Xuo Palace well.
Yes, Sire.
Who sent you?
Will you only speak after some bitter taste?
The Emperor sent me to kill you.
He is indeed from the palace.
I beg you. Spare me. I'm just a hireling.
Dog emperor says one thing but does another.
He does one thing but does something opposite from behind you.
If he doesn't die, I fear you two won't have any good days to live.
Kill him.
Don't you fear it will startle your sister? Let me take him on.
You go and tell that dog emperor
that your sister is very ill.
That she wishes to see him. Just as long as we trick him into coming here...
The rest, you can leave it to me.
Brother, that man yesterday... what was he on about?
That man yesterday... I scared him away.
Why did he want to kill me?
Nothing much to tell.
He was just a robber that also kills.
Brother, I'm scared.
Liang Er, don't be afraid.
Just drink this medicine and take a nap.
Then everything will be fine.
It's still a bit too hot. I'll drink after it's cooler later.
But I think I'd like to rest now.
That's good too.
Your Majesty,
do you need to go in and take a look?
Alright.
Which lady will live in this Chu Xiu Palace?
I heard that it's for that Lady Wei who was expelled out of the palace before.
Timing & subtitles brought to you by the Gone with the Shirt team@Viki
Liang'er...
Your Majesty, from outside the palace, Chang Qing sent this to you.
Lin Lang! What happened to Lin Lang?
Chang Qing said that Lady Wei is very sick and she wants to see Your Majesty.
Yun Chu.
I'm here to visit you.
Lin Lang? Cui Jun!
Lin Lang, I thought I would never see you again.
Cui Jun.
This is all my fault.
Lin Lang, stop saying that.
I know what happened.
According to Rong Ruo, His Majesty still thinks of you.
and he plans to bring you back to the palace.
Maybe
I can never be back.
Why?
Cui Jun,
if I pass away,
please bury me here.
What nonsense are you spouting?!
I don't allow you to say such things!
We used to be four close friends. Now only two of us are left.
No matter what, you have to take good care of yourself.Otherwise I won't forgive you!
Lin Lang, forget those unpleasant things.
Everything will pass.
Lin Lang, promise me. Just to forget it.
(Na Lan's Estate)
Young Master.
What's wrong?
Today, I went to visit Hua Zhu and Yun Chu. And I saw Lin Lang there.
She... Is she well?
I told her that His Majesty was planning to bring her back to the palace, but she said she would never go back.
Young Master, do you think she's still stuck in the past?
She also asked me to bury her with
Hua Zhu and Yun Chu after she passes away.
Do you think she may want to kill herself?
She's pregnant with His Majesty's baby.
She won't kill herself.
She's pregnant!
Why didn't she tell me this?
How did you know?
Chang Qing sent a message to His Majesty.
Chang Qing?
Damn!
Get out of the way.
Where is Rong Ruo?
Your Majesty, Sir Nalan sent you a message.
He hopes that you can come back to the palace immediately.
Let's go!
Grand Empress Dowager, His Majesty snuck out of the palace.
Yesterday, Chang Qing
sent His Majesty something,
stating that Lady Wei was very sick.
I'm afraid His Majesty may have gone out of the palace to see Lady Wei.
Something must be wrong.
His Majesty is in danger.
Go!
Rong Ruo!
Are you okay?
Are you alright?
Why did you come? You shouldn't have come!
Don't be scared. I'm fine.
It's my fault.
I promised that I would protect you for your whole life.
Rong Ruo!
- Kill them!- Stop!
They will ruin our big plan.
I'll kill you if you dare to harm her.
The damn emperor's here!
Kill him!
So you are Wu Zi Qun.
Damn emperor, I'll take your life today!
Eight years ago, you led those who were with Oboi
and incited Abunai's eldest son to betray the empire,
which caused the death of over 100 people in Abunai's household.
I didn't expect that you would be still doing this kind of thing after 8 years.
I didn't expect that you were still doing this after 8 years.
Today there's no way that you can possibly escape.
What are you waiting for? Go ahead!
Rong Ruo.
The emperor sent me here to kill you.
Go!
Wu Zi Mo!
Release me!
- Stop!- Release me!
Wu Zi Mo, let my sister go.
In order to rebuild Zhou, not to mention your sister,
even you will die if you are in my way!
Put your sword down!
Big brother.
Big brother!
Liang'er.
I know my faults.
I shouldn't have involved you.
I can't take good care of you anymore.
Liang'er, you have to take care of yourself.
I'm too tired.
It's so ridiculous.
Big brother!
Big brother.
Your Majesty, people from the Grand Empress Dowager are here!
Take Lin Lang to somewhere else immediately!
Yes Sire.
Who dares to countermand His Majesty's order!
This is by order of the Grand Empress Dowager. Take down the traitors!
You started formal learning when you were five.
You were a very devoted student.
The teacher of the Imperial School taught Da Xue.
And you could repeat it from memory without any mistake.
You also chose the essentials and read them everyday. Do you still remember it?
The one who owns the country has to be cautious.
Otherwise the country will suffer.
The one who owns the country has to be cautious.
But you did reckless things for that woman.
If people know, what will the scholars think?
What will the ministers think?
If anything had happened to you this time,
how can I, as the Imperial Grandmother, face all the people?
How can I face the former emperor?
Your grandson is back, safe and sound.
Please don't be angered. Please spare Lin Lang.
She wanted to kill you multiple times.
She doesn't really love you!
Don't you know that?
Grandmother, you misunderstood.
She tried to save me multiple times.
She almost lost her own life.
Good boy, do you still remember that?
When you were little, you had a bad boil on your arm.
You had fever every day. Medications didn't work.
The Imperial Doctor cut your flesh open.
You didn't even cry. Instead, you watched the doctor removing the boil
and draining the putridness out.
I took care of you the whole time.
And you gradually recovered from it.
Listen to your imperial grandmother...
forget her.
Imperial Grandmother.
She is not Xuan Ye's boil.(Note: In reality, the Emperor never calls his own name.)
She is my life.
Imperial Grandmother can't take my life away.
We Manchu have a saying.
There are eagles on Changbai Mountainwhile there are fish in Songhua River.
They can't fly together.
There are so many women in this palace,looking forward to getting your favor.
Why are you so stubborn?
Although there are a lot of women in the palace,
she is the only one who understands me.
Only she knows what I want.
And I only like her.
