Chronicle of Life
Episode 16
Lady Gui Fei has already sent someone to tell me what has been happening.
Today, you can forget about leaving the house.
Dad, I have to enter the palace today!
You unfilial son!
When are you going to wake up from your mistakes?
The palace is filled with news now,
Emperor has carried Wei Lin Lang into his palace.
She is now the Emperor's woman. Have many brains do you have to fight with the Emperor for his woman?
Dad, This is my business.
I will explain it to the Emperor.
Ok.
If you go, then Dad will go with you.
I will beg for the Emperor's forgiveness.
I will tell him that I adopted Ah Bu Nai's daughter and committed treason.
I will now use my life to exchange for the life of my whole family!
Do you dare? Let's go!
Dad,
please don't force me! Have I forced you?
If I have forced you, that girl would have been dead 8 years ago!
Now, Na Lan household have over 100 people,
Don't tell you that you want to sacrifice us all with her?
Say,
guards!
Master,
Please apply for leave for young master.
Say that he is unwell these few days, unfit for work.
Also, please guard him properly.
make sure that he doesn't leave the room!

I have yet to learn how to play that tune, ♫ Clouds brought warmth to the cold palace ♫
♫ City of a thousand temples ♫
♫ Can't separate the future from the past. ♫
Your subject who's committed an offense knows he is unforgiveable of his crime. ♫ Your eyes caused the flowers to become wet ♫
However all these crimes are ♫ Your eyes caused the flowers to become wet ♫
committed by myself Na Lan only. ♫ A young lad in green clothes under the tree ♫

May His Majesty investigate diligently. ♫ Lovers growing old ♫
On the account of my father and the royal concubine's devotion to His Majesty and Great Qing ♫ Lovers growing old ♫
please pardon them kindly. ♫ The two of them have gone far ♫

with grief. ♫ One pair of hands cannot hold on to yesterday ♫
♫ Who is the one that said goodbye? ♫
I still want to see you. ♫ Can’t go back anymore to our first meeting ♫
I want to see you dance under the tree. ♫ My thoughts ended with the peach flower falling ♫

Don't go, don't leave me!
Don't go.
I won't leave.
I won't leave you.
Guard!
Young Master, Come in.
Young Master,
Mother, I am cold.
Very cold,
Master, Master, please don't go.
Don't go, I promise you,
I will leave with you.
I am not scare of dying, I am not scare of dying.
Who is that person?
Master,
Who is the one that will risk your life
just to let you leave with him?
One life, One generation, One pair.
I understand Emperor's heart.
But I don't want you to grace me this.
Why?
One life, One generation, One pair.
Rong Ruo is waiting for the lady that I like.
Is this Rong Ruo?
Emperor, Na Lan Master is here.
Master, Emperor says that he won't meet you, please leave.
Imperial Guard Na Lan Rong Ruo is requesting an audience with Your Highness.
Master, why are you doing this?
Emperor already said that he won't meet with you, please get up!
If the Emperor refuses to see Rong Ruo,
I will kneel here till the Emperor is ready.
Emperor,
Receiving such love from Your Highness, it makes me fearful.
please just let go, Your Majesty.
Let me ask you again,
the person in your heart,
who is he?
Emperor,
it is not possible between him and me,
please stop asking me.
One life, One generation, One pair,
two souls connected.
So the reason why you love the peach tree,
I finally understand.
Very good.
Very good
Guilty Rong Ruo here to see the Emperor.
Ask him in. Yes.
Emperor, Rong Ruo is guilty.
Please give in to me based on my past service to you.
What do you want?
I am willing to trade in my life's fame and fortune,
in exchange for a woman.
You want to use your wealth and fame
to exchange for which woman?
- Wei Lin Lang. - No!
Emperor, please grant me my request.
Outrageous!
My woman, why should I give her to you?!
What do you mean by saying that it is impossible between you and him?
What is this?
One is the trusted brother of mine,
One is the woman that I love,
yet each of you are here to lie to me!
Emperor, I am the guilty one,
please punish me, this is nothing to do with Na Lan Master.
Emperor, if you want to kill, please kill me!
Do you really think that I won't dare to kill you?
Emperor,
you want to die to solve all these?
I can't grant you this wish.
- Xiao De Zhi, - Yes.
Pass down my command,
Wei Lin Lang to return to the service section and not allowed to leave.
Na Lan Rong Ruo, because of his past good deeds,
he was promoted to the top guard,
and to be with me at all times.
I pay my respects to Imperial concubine.
You may raise.
Imperial concubine, I heard
that His Majesty moved Lin Lang to serve under the Imperial court.
Rong Ruo has also been promoted.
Rong Ruo being promoted,
Those who don't know the truth will think that it's a good thing.
But only we know
the pain and frustration.
Only I know how bitter Rong Ruo must feel.
Her going back to serve under the Imperial court,
I'm not surprised at all.
That's because the day His Majesty carried Lin Lang away,
I knew that she would be back sooner or later.
In His Majesty's heart,
Lin Lang never left.
- Imperial concubine. - You don't need to comfort me.
I know what I have to do.
The day I first entered the palace,
I understood a principle.
Regardless of who His Majesty has in his heart,
I will never forget my original intentions.
I, Nalan Mingzhu,
what kind of sin have I committed?
Raising such an unfilial descendant.
I can't face my ancestors!
Sir, please calm down.
The royal decree is here!
Sir, the royal decree from the palace is here.
- Nalan Mingzhu accept this. - I accept.
Royal Decree from His Majesty
Son of Na Lan Min Zhu, Na Lan Rong Ruo
earned merit in guarding the imperial entourage.
Promotion to third ranking proper as first guard.
Termination of decree.
What?
Sir Mingzhu, why haven't you accepted yet?
I thank His Majesty.
There's news already!
Well? - How is Lin Lang? Have you heard back?
It said the Lin Lang was ill until she was almost dead.
But when she was just leaving the palace, His Majesty came in time.
His Majesty carried Lin Lang back to Qian Qing palace (Emperor's Palace). It seems she will serve under the Imperial court again.
Thank the heavens and gods. It's good that Lin Lang is okay.
It seems that His Majesty has our Lin Lang in his heart.
Thank heavens!
Luckily, Your Majesty still misses Sister Lin Lang.
Otherwise, we won't be able to see her again.
Silly.

Your Majesty! Did you get burned?
I deserve death! I deserve death!
I beg His Majesty to forgive me.
I was deluding myself.
You! Follow me.
- Little De. - Your Majesty.
- You're dismissed. - Yes, Sir.
Do you remember
we defeated Oulbai here together.
I remember.
How fast the years go by.
Seems we haven't sparred in a long time.
Come.
Let's you and me have a good fight today.
- Your Majesty. - I'm not Your Majesty today.
And you're not my imperial guard either.
Here we are
those two kids who defeated Oulbai that year.
A king says no false word.
Come on.
Don't shame Great Qing.
Bring out your pride as man.
I will not regret dying for Great Qing.
You're not the one who should die.
I need you to watch with me how the world will dazzle.
I disallow you to die.
Your subject shall follow order.
My Lady, isn't that His Majesty?
My Lady, you made this trip without saying a word with His Majesty.
What if His Majesty forgets tomorrow is your birthday?
If he forgets, he forgets.
If His Majesty forgets your birthday and the other mistresses find out . . .
who knows how much gossip will rattle.
Let them say what they want. I don't care.
You don't care
but for me to see you like this
I feel sad.
Stop. My handkerchief dropped.
What are you all doing there? Go get it for Her Majesty.
Your slave brought it to back.
What does this mean?
I don't dare to dirty up Her Majesty's handkerchief.
What a sensible slave.
Let's go.
I won't wear it.
Take it away.
Yes, Sir.
Your Majesty, today is Lady Hui Fei's birthday.
I got it.
Even if His Majesty doesn't come you should still dress up.
No, my cursing mouth. I said it wrong.
Maybe His Majesty will come surprise you.
His Majesty arrives.
Your royal concubine sees Your Majesty.
You may rise.
It's your birthday today
so I brought Rong Ruo too to congratulate you.
Thank you, Your Majesty.
Happy birthday, My Lady sister.
Get on up.
Thank you, My Lady.
I'm just getting another year older.
Rong Ruo, you must pay the royal grace.
Be diligent at your work.
Thank you for your teaching.
Rong Ruo
today is your sister's birthday, you should sit too.
Yes, Sir.
Beloved concubine,
I wish for you
everlasting beauty and long life.
Thank you, Your Majesty.
Prosper and health to His Majesty and Lady Highness.
You may all get up. Thank you, Your Majesty.
Your Majesty, since it's My Lady's birthday today
maybe we could play a game to be festive.
Chen Xiang!
It's alright. What game?
Your Majesty, let's play pass along the flower ball.
Whoever is holding the flower ball is penalized by answering questions.
Until it can be answered.
If not, the penalty is three cups of wine.
You are rude. How can you speak to His Majesty so?
You've been hoping His Majesty would come these last few days
finally His Majesty has come on your birthday today.
I just want to see you happy.
She's a devoted maid.
How about this,
you be the one in charge of the passing drum.
I will follow order.
Since it's a game,
you all come play along too.
Yes, Sir.
Alright, I'll be the start.
It's your birthday. You ask the question.
Then . . . I'll go with a simple one.
Alright.
Your Majesty, what year was I born?
I suddenly forgot.
I'll drink.
Another one.
Then . . . what year did I enter the palace?
Pour the wine.
One last question.
Do you know what my favorite flower is?
Little De.
Your Majesty, it's Rong Ruo's turn.
Who should ask the question?
I will.
Rong Ruo, tell me
when did you two get acquainted?
I will drink three cups.
I also want to ask you
when did you
come to like Wei Lin Lang?
Your Majesty, you've had too much wine.
You should eat something first.
Don't interrupt me.
Wei Lin Lang, I want to ask you, why don't you like me?
What's exactly is wrong with me?
Are you so scared of me?
Your Majesty.
Your concubine sends off Your Majesty.
Your Majesty. I'm walking by myself!
Could I have
been wrong to save her back then?
You didn't do wrong, My Lady. Wei Lin Lang is the one at fault.
Your only fault
is you are too kind.
Your Majesty
I am born the year of the metal rat.
One year younger than Your Majesty.
I entered the palace on the 9th month of the year of fire snake.
Orchids are my favorite flowers.
Because when I entered the palace,
you gifted me
none other than an orchid.
You said to me, you wished for me to be like the single orchid.
Not fighting over beauty with the other flowers.
Not fading in color by frost or snow.
An orchid of the valley
blooming in autumn.
Together with you.
Barren mountains far away.
Reporting to Your Majesty.
Presiding officer
of the Left Censor Bureau
has the task of distributing aid to the famine victims.
But they reduced the head count by three fold.
The accounting office has been posting aid to the victims in timely matters.
Yet more than half of the famine victims are hungry.
Your humble subject asks
how should this deceived matter be dealt with.
I await your royal judgment.
Is there a need to ask?
They concealed the truth and contoured the facts. Crime of deceiving the king.
On the outside it looks as though patronizing me,
but in reality it harms them and it harms the victims.
Have punishment bureau
carry it out as crime of deceiving the king.
Yes, Sir.
Your Majesty, the medicine's brewed.
Drink.
Lin Lang, this is medicine His Majesty gives you.
Drink up.
Your Majesty, allow Rong Ruo to drink this.
This isn't for you.
Your Majesty!
Your Majesty, the royal physician asks me if this coughing medicine
should be brewed tomorrow as well.
No need tomorrow.
Yes, Sir.
Lin Lang hasn't time to come retrieve her belongings since she returned to the imperial palace.
So I brought it for her. Please bare the trouble of handing to her.
I got it. Don't worry.
De Gong Gong, is everything okay after Lin Lang returned to the imperial palace?
About that . . .
Nothing's gone wrong, has it?
We have no news of Lin Lang and she hasn't returned to see us.
She couldn't have gotten in some trouble, could she?
I advise you not to ask anymore.
If nothing is to happen, nothing will.
If something's to happen, something will.
You go back and I'll give this to her.
Your Majesty, this is from Xin Zhe Ku.
Miss Lin Lang's item.
I don't know if the musician is male or female.
Such harmony.
The flute melody is crisp and soft.
It must be a woman. You are so sure?
Not so uncommon to have a woman versed in music.
So I see.
You are dismissed.
Yes, Sir.
Sit.
I don't dare to.
I said to sit.
Yes, Sir.
Drink.
Yes, Sir.
The late King passed away and I became King at age eight.
At age ten, my mother passed away.
My grandmother raised me very strict.
Since I was young, all I thought about
was how to be a good king.
When I was fourteen, I ruled the nation on my own accord.
I captured Oboi at sixteen.
Afterwards I was always busy in ruling the nation.
I have many concubines.
But all are for the sake of various palace relationships.
My marriage
was never a choice I could have.
