[The Princess Weiyoung]
[Episode 15]
How did she die?
Tell me.
Tell me how she died!
And why...
Why did you take Wei Young's identity?
What is your motive?
I happened to run into Wei Young.
I didn't even get to repay her for saving my life.
Before she died, you were the last thing on her mind.
She reminded me to take good care of you.
Mother.
It was Chiyun Rou who killed Wei Young.
My family was also murdered by Chiyun Rou and Li Min Feng.
That is why I took Wei Young's identity to join the Li family.
On one hand, it is to fulfill Wei Young's dying wish
and on the other hand, I'm seeking revenge on Chiyun Rou and her son.
I can swear to the gods that I carry no ill intention toward Wei Young or you.
I promised Wei Young to take good care of you.
Even if I have to risk my life, I will keep my word.
Wei Young...
How could you just leave like that?
We didn't even get to meet one last time.
Wei Young...
I shouldn't have kept it from you.
If you wish to scold or hit me or even expose me
I won't hold it against you.
Get up.
My daughter Wei Young trusted you with her life.
How could I expose you?
I know that you're true to me.
I've remembered just how lovely you have been to me these days.
Actually...
I already regard you as my own daughter.
Mother.
From now on, both you and Wei Young are my daughters.
- Mother. - Wei Young.
Wei Young.
Mother.
[Junlan Quarters]
Wei Young.
Min De, why would you be free to come over at this hour?
Bai Zhi, serve tea.
- Yes. - Don't bother.
Uncle has sent me to pay respects to our ancestors.
The horses and trolleys are ready.
I'm leaving after I speak to you.
You're in such a rush?
It will probably take me some time to get back from this trip.
If anything happens to you in the manor, I...
I'm not worried about you.
It's that the incident with the imposer just came to an end.
Aunt Rou must still bear a grudge against you.
I'm worried that you will be bullied again.
I can't stand seeing the weak being bullied.
Min De, don't worry.
I will take good care of myself.
Besides, I still have Jun Tao and Bai Zhi.
We will be fine.
You should stop making that righteous heart of yours worried.
Go and enjoy the trip.
Exactly, Second Young Master.
We will protect Young Mistress.
I won't let whoever dares bully my mistress off easily.
That's good.
I'm off then.
If you're really in any trouble, go to Prince of Gaoyang.
He might be a bit annoying, but he's not a mean person.
All right. You'd be mistaken as my older brother if outsiders heard you now.
Just set out at ease.
As for you, you should be careful while you are out and about.
Don't act too willfully.
You don't have to worry about me at all.
Keep an eye on yourself.
My little cousin is so handsome.
I'm worried that some young lady will fall for you and you won't come home.
What young lady?
I will surely come home.
Wait for me to come home.
Young Master, have some water.
How much longer will it take us?
About two more days.
We might have to sleep over in the small town ahead tonight.
Speed up.
Try and get to the town before sunset.
Yes, Young Master.
Young Master, have some food first.
Princess, if anyone notices that we have sneaked out here
my life will be forfeit.
I've arranged someone to cover for us.
We'll sneak out and then back in.
No one will notice.
- Don't worry. - But...
No buts. Don't worry.
No matter what happens, you can trust me with your life.
Young Master, are they here to rob us?
Don't utter a word.
It's their unlucky day.
I really don't understand why
you would sneak out to stalk Imperial Guard Li.
Stalk him?
I'm just out for a stroll and I happened to run into him.
Before you left, you even asked after Imperial Guard Li's agenda.
I'll have your tongue cut off if you keep talking.
Where is Li Min De?
Why has he suddenly disappeared?
Hurry up! We can't lose track of him.
Who are you?
It's me!
Your Highness?
Why do I see you everywhere?
Get up quickly.
How dare you be so rude to me?
Young Master, are you all right?
I've offended Your Highness out of panic.
Please forgive me.
Get up.
What are you doing here?
I've been entrusted with a task to inspect in disguise.
Just the two of you?
What about that?
I've strayed far from my guards.
Where are you going?
Your Highness.
I'm paying respects to the ancestors in Zhending on behalf of my uncle.
I'll join you. You can protect me.
That won't do.
Why not?
It's decided.
I'll take your horse.
- Your Highness. - What?
You will defy me?
I wouldn't dare.
Step aside.
You!
What for?
Get down on your knees. How can I get on the horse?
Young Master.
Follow them. Be sure to keep Young Lord safe.
Yes.
Take a look.
Your Highness.
Isn't that Miss Wei Young's maid Bai Zhi?
- I'll take some of this. - Sure.
Yes, it's Bai Zhi.
Yes.
Will you some of this?
Miss Bai Zhi, His Highness...
He would like to have a chat with you.
Young Mistress!
What are you so happy about?
I discovered a very beautiful place today when I was out.
I think that you have had too much of a hard time recently
so it would be great if you could take a stroll.
- Take a stroll? - Exactly.
Am I right, Jun Tao?
It's good for her to walk.
Sure. When should we do that?
How about tomorrow?
Sure, we'll ask Chang Ru along.
- It's livelier with more people. - No!
- Why not? - It's because...
Rong Er told me that Miss Chang Ru has been working on her handicrafts
so she mustn't be disturbed.
We'll go on our own then.
Yes, Young Mistress.
I'll prepare for it.
Young Master, we've arrived.
- This is it? - Yes, this is the place.
I'm so tired from riding on the horse.
Forgive me for not being able to provide you with a carriage.
At Prime Minister's Manor, only the ladies get to ride in a carriage.
Am I right, Ping An?
- Yes, Young Master. - Are you mocking me?
I wouldn't dare do so.
Your Highness is so wise and brave.
How could I dare look down on you?
Ping An, let's get some rest!
Yes, Young Master.
Li Min De, don't you dare gloat!
Wait and see.
One day, you'll end up in my hands.
Please enjoy your meal.
The food has gone cold, Young Master.
I can see that.
I'm starving.
So am I.
Let him eat first.
I've heard that they have good wine here, so I've ordered some for Your Highness.
The owner said that the wine is very strong.
Your Highness mustn't have too much of it.
After you.
What are you laughing at?
Did I laugh? I didn't.
Right?
- You didn't laugh. - Exactly.
You don't think that I can drink much?
You think that I'd get drunk?
Step aside!
Drink.
Let's see if you can still laugh after getting drunk.
Pour the wine!
Your Highness...
Your Highness, don't drink.
Your Highness.
You mustn't drink too much while traveling.
- Step aside! - Don't do this, Your Highness.
The two of you! Get out!
You're not to come in without my orders!
Get out now!
- Young Master... - His Highness already said so.
Get out!
Today, we will have a fair match.
Whoever loses...
Whoever loses is an asshole!
You said it.
- I said it! - Sure, let's drink!
Keep drinking!
Drink...
Go on...
I will have you admit defeat willingly.
Look at that face of yours...
It's like a baboon's ass.
Listen up.
The loser...
It will definitely be you.
You are the asshole!
What did you say? You...
How dare you...
- What are you doing? - How dare you scold me?
I will have you...
Death penalty!
You're just abusing your power as a prince.
- Look at you. - Me? What about me?
You look girly and you sound girly.
Stop pestering me.
There's nothing I like about you at all.
Seriously...
I'll kill you!
Could you defeat me?
- I'll kill you! - Go on!
Go on! I'll let you hit me.
Darn you, Li Min De!
You molest me again!
You think that you...
Get up!
Get up...
Could he... Could he really be interested in men?
Young Master!
Was it all right last night?
Why wouldn't it be?
You were drinking with Imperial Guard Li last night
and I wanted to stop you, but you wouldn't let me in.
You had me wait outside.
I couldn't do anything.
I don't blame you.
Don't worry. Imperial Guard Li thought that I'm a man through and through.
What could go wrong?
When we get back to the palace
I'll cut off your tongue if you utter a word about this.
Greetings to Your Highness.
What are you doing?
Let go of me!
What is going on?
Your Highness, didn't you say that you strayed from your guards?
Therefore, I informed local authorities to protect Your Highness.
But... But we had a deal. You're supposed to protect me.
- Your Highness is a prince. - Yes.
No harm must come to you.
- Yes. - I can't take such responsibility.
I will take my leave now.
- Farewell. - Li Min De, get back here!
Your Highness, I've already sent my men to inform Ping City.
Please come with me to the palace.
What? Father will have learned about this?
Li Min De, this is all your fault!
What a beautiful place.
How is it, Young Mistress?
I was right to bring you here.
I haven't been to such a tranquil place for a long time.
Bai Zhi is still the best.
I'll reward you when we get home.
Come over here.
What a coincidence, Wei Young.
Why are you here as well?
Tuoba Jun...
What are you doing here?
I happened to pass through here after seeing to official affairs.
Official affairs?
Passed by here?
I... I'm here to... inspect the people.
Please feel free then, Your Highness.
I will get going now.
But you just arrived!
How did you know that I just arrived here?
Didn't Your Highness just happen to pass by?
I... I confess.
I told Bai Zhi to bring you here.
Don't get angry.
I just wanted to ease your mind.
Of course, then I could get to see you.
Why would you do so?
I am of lowly birth.
I'm not worthy of your concern.
Don't bring that up.
I don't like hearing you say that.
You're just Li Wei Young to me.
Peasant girl, Prime Minister's daughter
or Lady of District Anping, it's all the same to me.
Doesn't my identity make any difference to Your Highness?
Of course not.
Whatever identity or status, you are just you.
You are the Li Wei Young that I think of all the time.
Wei Young.
I have to explain to you.
- I'm actually... - Jun!
Miss Wei Young.
What a coincidence.
Both princes and Her Ladyship are here on a day trip?
What a small world.
Why are you so quiet?
Stay away from me.
Where did Her Ladyship get this bodyguard?
Why is her temper as foul and hard as a rock in an outhouse?
It must be a good day.
Otherwise, how could it be such a coincidence to meet up here?
Or did you agree to meet here?
- Yes. - No.
What about you, Uncle?
Why are you here?
I've long heard that the scenery is beautiful here
so I took time off to come here for a walk.
Who knew that I'd run into you here?
It turns out that everyone knows about the scenery here.
Good scenery is like a beautiful woman.
It's always the desire of gentlemen.
Why don't we drink to this beautiful scenery?
Here.
It's a poisonous bug.
It's all right. I have the medicine.
Allow me.
Are you all right, Young Mistress?
She was bitten by a poisonous bug, but it isn't a very bad bite.
She's all right now.
- Thank you, Your Highness. - Hold on.
This medication can cure poison, so it's best to keep it on for a day.
Thank you, Your Highness.
As long as you're fine.
It's getting late.
I should get going.
- I'll escort you home. - I'll escort you home.
It's fine. My carriage is just parked around the corner.
I can get home on my own.
- I'll take my leave now. - Hold on!
This...
Take it with you.
Thank you, Your Highness.
Your Highness, I heard that Her Ladyship was here on an outing
but I didn't expect Prince of Gaoyang to run into her here.
Run into her?
How could there be such a coincidence?
If I were right
Jun must have already known that Li Wei Young would be here.
It's a pity that your poisonous bug came in handy for him instead.
I have failed you, Your Highness.
It's not your fault.
We'll let Jun win this round.
Yes.
Bai Zhi!
This is all my fault.
Please forgive me, Young Mistress!
Bai Zhi.
Whom do you serve?
Whom should you obey?
Surely Young Mistress.
It's just that Prince of Gaoyang asked me for a favor so sincerely
even though I'm just a maid.
So you teamed up with him to trick me?
I didn't mean to lie to you.
It's just that His Highness truly likes Young Mistress
- and I know that you also... - That's enough!
Say no more.
I know that you mean well
but some matters aren't as simple as you think they are.
Your good intentions might bring me suffering.
Do you understand?
I'm sorry, Young Mistress.
I know that I've done wrong.
What about Prince of Nan-An?
I really don't know why Prince of Nan-An would be there.
Perhaps he was really there on an outing?
- Wei Young. - Chang Ru.
Get up now.
Thank you, Young Mistress.
What happened?
Don't you always dote on Bai Zhi?
I do, but she should still be disciplined when she makes mistakes.
Did you just get home?
I heard you mention Prince of Gaoyang and Prince of Nan-An.
What is it?
I had just wanted to take a stroll, but then I happened to run into them.
Anyway, it's a long story.
What?
You said that Li Wei Young went on an outing with both princes?
She happened to run into them.
Happened to run into them?
How is it a coincidence to run into both princes at once?
I think that it must be Li Wei Young's scheme.
This Li Wei Young is no simpleton.
She plans to win over both princes.
Listen up. Stop being nice to Wei Young all the time so naively.
Don't confide in just anyone.
She might just betray you some day.
Wei Young isn't like that.
I believe her.
It's just that...
If Chang Le learns of Wei Young's private outing with Prince of Gaoyang
I wonder what trouble she will stir up this time.
We're in for a good show then.
Mother, you have to help me.
You must help me.
- What is it? - Li Wei Young...
Li Wei Young met Prince of Gaoyang in private behind my back.
All you do is cry.
What good is crying?
Will Li Wei Young pity you and give Prince of Gaoyang back to you?
Or will Prince of Gaoyang be moved by your tears and favor you instead?
- I... - Whatever you desire
you have to fight for it.
Whatever the means and whatever the price.
You have to get it.
Otherwise, if you lose to Li Wei Young this time
you can never look her in the eyes again.
You'll be destined to lose forever.
I... I'm scared.
Scared?
What about?
You're scared of being called scheming?
Or being called treacherous?
It is the winner who decides what is right or wrong.
If you're the winner, even the wrong becomes right.
If you're the loser
you won't even get a chance to be mentioned by anyone.
As long as you seize the opportunity to make a name for yourself
no one would dare say a word against you.
Men's battleground lies in killing and warfare.
Women's battleground is all about wisdom and means.
Mother, I refuse to lose.
I'll never lose to Li Wei Young.
I will never reconcile with Li Wei Young.
It's either me or her.
If she wins, I stand no chance at all.
Chang Le.
Remember this.
In Prime Minister's Manor...
No, in the entire Great Wei, no one is fit to compete with you.
Whoever gets in your way will only end up...
Dead.
We have underestimated her and missed our chances to get rid of her.
Now that she's higher in status
we will have to risk our lives to take her out.
Young Mistress.
Young Mistress? Are we still going to Third Madam's?
Is the chicken broth ready?
It's ready.
Let's go. We'll bring it over to Third Aunt.
Madam?
What is it?
I just had a terrible nightmare, Master.
What is it?
I dreamed of many wooden men coming from all directions
and attacking you with wooden clubs!
What kind of dream is that?
Master, could this be a premonition?
It's just a dream.
Go back to sleep.
You're so good at cheering me up.
Old Madam, I'm just telling the truth.
Here, Rou.
Rou, what is the matter?
You seem quite pale.
For some unknown reason, I've been having headaches very often.
I can't sleep well at night either.
Has the doctor been to see you?
Yes.
I also took the medication.
I feel a bit better now.
Sister-in-law, you're destined to have a busy life.
When you were in charge of the household, you were always busy
but you were in great spirits.
Now that Brother-in-law put me in charge, you're too relaxed.
That's why these trivial ailments crept up on you.
Should I ask him to let you take over again?
What are you talking about?
Master had me take a break for my best interests.
Moreover, you have run the household so well.
It's quite nice not having much to do.
Madam.
Rou.
You haven't fully recovered.
You look even more haggard now.
I don't know what the problem is.
I feel better after taking the medication.
Once I stop taking it, it's the same again.
My chest is also quite tight.
Has Mother been ill for some time?
Yes. Wei Young, don't you know about it?
Whenever I went to greet her, she was never unwell.
It's said that her condition is on and off.
Perhaps you happened to visit on her good days.
Madam.
Mother.
Mother, are you all right?
Are you all right, Mother?
Mother.
Mother!
Sister-in-law!
- Mother! What happened? - Sister-in-law.
What is wrong, Rou?
Mother! Mother!
Madam!
Anyone there?
- Mother! - Send for the imperial physician.
Mother, wake up!
Imperial Physician.
What is the matter with my wife?
Madam Li has an irregular heartbeat and chest pain.
By right, I've already prescribed medication
according to her symptoms, so she should get better.
But my mother coughed up blood today and is still unconscious.
Imperial Physician Shen, you must save my mother.
I've never encountered such a condition in the past.
There's nothing I can do.
Prime Minister, please turn to someone more skilled for help.
Imperial Physician! Imperial Physician Shen!
Master, do allow me to say a few words.
Go ahead.
Judging by Madam's condition, she seems to be possessed.
Nonsense!
Chun Ming, what is it that you know?
Miss Chang Le, Madam's condition is very similar to that of my relative.
In the beginning, she also seemed perturbed.
Nightmares night after night followed by headache, heartache
and sores all over the body.
Then she began to cough up blood and went into a coma.
In no time...
In no time, she...
What happened?
She died!
Then on the day she was buried
a Taoist master passed by and told them that their house reeked of evil.
They later discovered in the daughter-in-law's room...
They found a...
They found a wooden figurine of that person with her birth date.
It was witchcraft.
Atrocious maid!
How dare you exaggerate!
20 years ago, there was a severe summer drought.
The sorcerers of Ping City deceived people with their tricks.
His Majesty flew into a fury and had them all arrested.
This matter even implicated many innocent officials.
Hundreds of people died because of it.
His Majesty has since strictly banned all sorts of witchcraft.
Are you trying to get the Li family in trouble by saying such words?
Old Madam, please spare me!
That is never my intention!
I'm just worried about Madam.
If she really is possessed
however much medication she takes won't help her at all.
Father, please save Mother!
Mother is on the verge of death.
If she can't be saved soon, she might...
Father, please hire a Taoist master to take a look at Mother.
Should this matter be found out and His Majesty learns of it
our whole clan will be wiped out.
Father, you can't just let Mother die without doing anything.
Grandmother, you can't just let Mother die like this. Grandmother!
Father! You mustn't do so.
None of these superstitions should be taken seriously.
Do you remember that Taoist master from Zijin Abbey?
He claimed to be some supreme master, but he was actually just an evil person.
Believe nothing they say.
If you truly wish to cure Mother, it's best to hire a doctor.
Even Imperial Physician Shen couldn't save Mother. Who else could?
Li Wei Young, you don't want Mother to get well at all!
You wish that my mother would die!
Chang Le, how can you be so certain?
Aren't you worried that you might delay her treatment?
Do you really care about Mother?
Madam!
This is bad!
Madam... Madam coughed up blood again!
Mother!
Madam!
Mother...
- Rou. - Mother.
- Madam... - Rou...
- Mother... - Rou...
Father, please hire a Taoist master to save Mother!
Quickly! Bring a Taoist master here!
Yes!
Rou...
- Rou... - Mother...
Master Li, Madam is indeed possessed.
Taoist Master, you claim that my mother is possessed
but how can you prove it?
Can you be sure to cure my mother?
Madam Li can only be saved if we find the evil object.
Where is this evil object then?
It is here in the manor.
What should we do?
Anyone there? Search the manor!
Leave no stone unturned!
Yes.
In order to be fair, you are all to return to your quarters.
The manor guards will search your rooms when you are present.
- Yes. - Yes.
Yes.
- Search carefully. - What are you doing?
You're breaking everything.
It's not here.
- Young Master's drawing... - It's not here.
Madam.
Search in there.
Yes!
It's not here.
- None here either. - Hurry up!
Search carefully!
What exactly is going on?
I don't know.
The two of you wait out here and the two of you search in there.
- The other two, search the room with me. - Yes.
Second Young Mistress, can you open the box?
May I ask what is wrapped in this cloth?
It's just a fan.
Could I take a look?
Be my guest.
Evil object!
[Hejian Quarters]
Master.
Chun Ming.
Madam.
Master. How is everything?
Have you found anything?
There's an evil object in Wei Young's room with your birth date on it.
What?
Wei Young is trying to harm me?
Rou!
What on earth are you trying to do?
Have you not done enough?
Do you want the Li family to be wiped out before you put an end to it?
Master, what do you mean by that?
Do you think that I'm trying to frame Wei Young?
Did you not?
First you bribed someone to pose as Wei Young, but failed
and now witchcraft?
Min Feng is already dead.
Even if you frame Wei Young, it won't bring Min Feng back to life.
Wei Young is the only one who can bring glory to our family now.
I won't let you have it your way!
Madam!
- Madam. - Madam?
