Episode 13
Did you hit your head?
What are you sitting there laughing?
Being in love really messes a person up.
I'm not as useless as you.
What do you know?
You don't know how blessed I am.
I can see you are really not sick.
Why didn't you make yourself some medicine?
I did, indeed!
Recently I created a new herbal formula
I named it "Forget Your Love Potion".
It can cure insomnia, excessive dreaming, trance
hallucinations, etc.
Can it cure lovesickness?
Of course it can.
Definitely!
Yuanbao.
You really gave away the mystery
My medicine here
was created especially to treat lovesickness.
Not only can it clear your mind,
and remove all extraneous thoughts,
it can even help you sleep.
Then from what I see,
you should drink a few more bowls.
Look at how much you've been bewitched.
I did drink it!
Look at me now.
I'm refreshed and in a pleasant mood.
This medicine can really do away distractions?
Of course!
Then give me some.
I have a friend
who has the same symptoms as you
I don't believe it.
That Gu Changfeng's medicine really works.
If it really does work
then let me forget that annoying woman!
Young Master.
Why are you here?
Why are you smiling at me?
What are you up to?
Young Master...
...what would I be up to?
I treat you like this everyday.
I have always dedicated my life to you.
You are making things up!
Young Master.
Did I do something wrong?
Let me tell you,
Stay away from me from now on.
Keep your distance.
Did you hear me? Don't smile at me!
Young Master...
I smile at you every day.
Don't you like it?
Like it, Young Master?
Young Master...
Do you like me?
I like you.
I like it.
I like you Xiaoxuan.
I want you to stay by my side
and never leave me.
Xiaoxuan
I like you.
I like you a lot.
I want to stay with you everyday.
Xiaoxuan
Young Master...
I am Ah Fu.
Fu, what Fu?
I am Ah Fu.
Why are you here?
Young Master, what are you doing?
You haven't been possessed right?
Don't scare me.
Gu Changfeng!
What is it?
Is this "Forget your Love Potion"
or is it "Passion potion"?
I mistook Ah Fu for Xiaoxuan!
My medicine is absolutely fine
I drank a lot of it as well.
As long as Xue'er is not by my side...
I won't have the peace of mind to work properly.
Once I drink it,
my heart will calm down.
Then why is it...
totally ineffective on my body?
This is medicine! It works in stages.
You won't feel the effect so soon.
Look at me,
I feel really good.
I feel like
my body has energy, and my ears are sharp.
This medicine is effective indeed.
Of course it's effective!
I'm the best evidence of it!
I'll trust you again.
Stop the palanquin.
Sir, we have arrived.
Call at the door.
Yes.
It's so late. Why are you knocking?
May I ask if this is the Sun Residence?
Yes. What is it?
May I ask if Master Li Jun is at home?
Why are you looking for Li Jun?
May I ask if Master Li Jun...
knows a lady by the name of Xue Er?
Xue Er?
Yes.
Please wait a moment.
Alright.
Bastard. I'll beat you to death!
All sorts of people are coming to provoke my husband!
Let me tell you...
my husband IS very good looking.
Our family is especially rich too!
But not anyone can just come and mess with us!
Leave!
Get lost!
I warn you...
If you come again, I'll slap the whole lot of you!
-You...-Close the doors!
You b*tch!
Horrible woman.
What game are you playing?
Seriously.
Sir!
She hit me.
She hit you well.
She hit me well?
Yeah. Well.
That woman just now was Li Jun's wife.
How aggressive
Such a gentle and delicate lady like Miss Xue'er
how could she know a person like that?
And the Li Jun she went to see as soon asshe arrived at Capital
There must be a hidden meaning behind this
But we couldn't meet with Li Jun just then
Li Jun is a merchant.
Being early is not an advantage
if we want to bait him out it won't be hard.
I'm now really interested in seeing
the Mr Li Jun who Miss Xue'er
is so worried about
and what kind of person he is
Let's go
Sir!
That b*tch!
Go!
Honey!
Talk!
Why was that rascal rambling away?
Why are people coming after you?
Do you two have a secret relationship with each other?
No, Honey!
Even if you lend me some boldness
I wouldn't dare meet up with that maiden again!
I, Li Jun,
will only love you in this lifetime, Honey.
Bullshit!
Cut the act with me.
All your pretty words...
save it for that slut!
Wife, I swear to you...
I will never ever...
meet with that lady called Xue Er again.
I swear!
You hit me if I see her, you hit me if I don't!
What do you want me to do?
I'll hit you and what are you going to do about it?
Let me tell you this.
Tomorrow, tell that little slut clearly...
that she is never to contact you again.
Otherwise, I won't hold back towards her!
Alright, Wife.
Don't be angry anymore.
Young Master.
Young Master!
You were sleeping?
Are you alright?
I'm hallucinating again!
Leave! Leave!
Young Master.
I am Ah Fu.
Are you alright, Young Master?
Leave!
Young Master, don't scare me!
Are you alright, Young Master?
Don't force me.
I...
Young Master, what are you up to?
Don't force me!
Young Master!
I am Ah Fu!
Don't force me!
Young Master, I am Ah Fu!
What are you up to?
Don't force me.
Young Master!
I am Ah Fu!
Don't force me!
-Young Master!-Don't force me!
What's wrong with you?
Young Master
Young Master I am really Ah Fu
Young Master!
I... I came back at the wrong time.
Continue.
You can continue.
Young Madam!
It's not what you think!
That bastard Gu Changfeng
He's killing me
Save me!
Bad hallucination! Don't run!
I must've been crazy
to trust your medicine!
What's wrong with my medicine?
I drank it too. Aren't I fine?
Aren't I okay now?
All I see is her, what to do?
Scared me
Weren't you missing her?
If you miss her you can see her any time, how great is that?
You quack!
Still talking crazy talk!
I...
Tell me, aren't the two of them really weird?
Yeah!
Look look, Hallucination has appeared again!
Mine appeared too!
Halt, Hallucination!
Such an annoying hallucination!
Always appearing in front of my eyes!
If you're not annoyed, I am!
Look. What an innocent face you're wearing!
How innocent. How annoying!
Since you are a hallucination
can you satisfy me a bit?
How about giving me a hug?
If you don't hug me, I'll hug you.
Since it's a hallucination anyway
You can hug the hallucination!
It feels real, go try it!
Quickly!
-Really? -For real!
Let me try
How refreshening!
Can you feel it?
Feels so alive, right?
Let me tell you
Next time I'll create a new formula!
What's the use of standing here?
I want Hallucination to dance!
Right! Dancing is good!
This is really great, Brother!
No problem!
We can even make them do sexy dances! ~Oh, great!
Did they go insane?
Ignore them, let's go
Ah Fu
Who's sending for me so urgently?
I don't know either, it's a man
He's saying he's looking for you, Xi'er
Impossible
I don't know anyone in the Capital
He's at the door
It's you?
He's looking for Young Madam.
Take him there
Miss Xi'er
Could you please relay the message
that I want to see Young Madam.
Follow me
Has he gone mad
He even dare to come to our door?
Let's see how I take care of him!
You must not!
He knows I am Jiang Xiaoxuan.
If he says something
and drags us down, then what?
That's true
I don't know where he is right now
He was too striking standing at the door...
...so I took him to the yard.
Ok, I'll head over now
and see what he wants.
Please, Female Warrior, let me see Young Madam.
Pfft
Are you even worth it
How can someone like you see her whenever he wants?
I...
Say it. What were you doing?
Me and her were in different worlds.
I was confused then.
I overstepped my boundaries...
but I know I am wrong.
I beg the Young Madam to save me.
I just want to live peacefully with my wife.
If someone knows
about me and Young Madam...
The Jin and Jiang Mansion will definitely not let us go
I'm begging Young Madam.
Don't arrange for people to come bother us.
Let us go please.
I'm begging you, Young Madam.
Who sent people to bother you?
We already put this matter aside.
Not interested.
It was yesterday,
yesterday two people came to my household looking for me.
If it wasn't Young Madam who sent them, who else could it be?
Then tell me
what they looked like.
Well...
One of them was tall and skinny
...and the other one looked sturdy.
He held a knife.
Anyway, quite scary.
Could they be...
Li Jun said...
...some guys came for him.
It was Wenzhao and Cuihou.
Butler Liu?
Cuihou?
Is Cuihou from here as well?
Are you saying...
...Butler Liu and Madam...
are starting to suspect us?
Not necessarily.
Anyways,
Li Jun doesn't know why they came for him.
If he knew...
...he would definitely...
Then I will tell him that if he ever says anything...
Don't ever do that!
He dumped me,
...but he isn't a bad guy.
Don't harm him.
Then what can we do?
Since Li Jun came over today
that means they never got anything out of him
But I'm afraid that
Liu Wen Zhao won't be satisfied
and will go look for him again.
Don't worry.
I will send some men to follow him.
To see if anything comes up.
Ah Fu.
Why are you here to see Madam?
If there is something, say it quickly.
Replying Madam, Young Master...
Young Master...
Why are you stuttering?
What happened to Young Master? Say it.
Young Master has been acting strange these two days.
Don't make up things, Ah Fu.
Young Master is fine
what do you mean acting strange?
That day,
Young Master thought I was Young Mistress.
The words he said to me were weird.
Then when he cleared up...
he jumped.
What matter is this?
So I came to Madam
to see if we should call for a doctor to see Young Master?
Let's go.
Let's go see him.
Young Master.
Madam has come to see you.
Yuanbao...
I heard you were not feeling well.
What is going on?
Do you need me to go get the doctor?
I'm fine. Don't listen to Ah Fu.
Yuanbao!
And you say you are fine...
Get up, Yuanbao.
The book is upside down.
Upside down?
It's not!
It is, Yuanbao!
It's not!
Xiaoxuan!
Why are dressed in nanny's clothes?
We are at home, are you okay?
Yuanbao, what is wrong with you?
Ah Fu, let's go get the doctor!
Okay.
Call for the doctor!
Hurry, call for the doctor!
Call for what doctor? Who is sick?
Changfeng!
What exactly did you give Yuanbao...
that made him like this?
Changfeng...
What medicine did you give Yuanbao?
It was Young Master who came to me for medicine.
This medicine doesn't have much side effects
It was to clear the mind.
What is your medicine called?
It's...
In this medicinal mix
Salvia, Chinese Magnolia Vine
also Dried Tangerine Peel, Mother of Pearl shell, Rehmannia
They're all non toxic herbs
It's safe.
There is no poison...
then how come Yuanbao has become like this?
Ah Fu. You try it.
Me?
Madam wants you to try it. Try it then!
Drink it.
It's guaranteed safe.
Drink it.
Madam, I...
Drink it!
Ah Fu.
Who am I?
Madam Jin.
Then...Ah Fu, who am I?
Aunt Gu.
How about me?
Gu Changfeng.
Ah Fu.
After drinking this medicine,
do you feel strange anywhere?
I don't feel any different.
Chang Feng.
Why is that after Yuan Bao drank this medicine
he can only see Xiao Xuan?
Madam, Young Master's problem is his heart.
His love for Young Madam is too deep.
He calls himself a man...
Why is he so head over heels for a girl?
Just what is this?
It's a relief Young Master is not suffering from something worse.
Changfeng.
From now on, don't give Young Master
such messy medicine
Yes.
Ah Fu.
Go tell Young Madam to prepare the instrument.
Tonight, under the moonlight,
we will help with Young Master's heart.
Yes, I understand.
I don't mean to intrude,
We need the Lord to show up.
Okay, I'll pass the message.
Thank you.
What did he give them?
Here, Honey.
No.
Get up.
Really honorable clothes.
Honey...
I have never met them.
And now this invitation.
Rubbish!
That invitation card...
...is to the whole neighbourhood.
They just wanted to browse our products
Honey, I don't feel like going.
I have never met them before.
Shut up.
Take these clothes off.
I really...
I said take it off!
I'm taking it off.
Shut up.
You can't be wanting His Excellency Liu
...Sir Liu's personal invitation.
You are lucky that they invited you,
it's no trouble for you.
Young Master, this way.
Lift it up.
Young Master, careful.
De Yue Building
Okay.
Lift it up.
Sir, Li Jun has arrived.
Let him in.
This is Hu'guang Trade group's Mr Liu
Finally!
And you are?
I am Li Jun.
Warrior please spare my life!
Do you recognize me?
Why is it you?
Do you know why I brought you here today?
I don't know.
Please clarify.
The guys at your door the other day...
were my men.
You were supposed to meet them at De Yue Building today.
So they weren't of the Huguang Trade Group?
You believed that?
I'm telling you,
If you went out today,
You wouldn't have been able to return.
Oh, heavens!
If you want your life, it's simple.
Everything that happened that day,
can't be leaked out,
especially by your bratty wife.
Otherwise I'll ruin your reputation.
Be careful, or I'll tell her...
...you're having girls on the side.
She'll castrate you!
Don't tell her!
Here,
I heard,
Mr Li Jun isn't from the Capital?
Ever since young,
I followed my dad in the business.
exploring the vast lands
That's why I have the accent.
Ah, I see.
Oh right,
I heard Sir Li knows Jiang Xiaoxuan.
Who in Nanjing doesn't know Jiang Xiaoxuan?
But, most of it I only heard.
I have seen Miss Jiang once.
Miss Jiang is living at the Jin Mansion now.
I want to know how you know her?
I have a younger female cousin who is her best buddy
I also did some cosmetic business
I made her rouge.
Your cousin is...
Xue'er.
Xue'er?
Yes.
Not so long ago...
Miss Jiang married into the capital
and my cousin came from Nanjing
to the capital.
Every now and then...
...we go eat duck together.
My cousin may look very nice and graceful
but she is very loud.
Xue'er is your cousin?
Yes.
What? How is this so strange?
You think a guy like me can't have such a pretty cousin?
If you knew everything...
...you wouldn't want to deal with our family.
Do you want to marry her?
You want to get married and meet me first?
Well in Xue Er's heart,
I do have some influence.
Sir Li is thinking too much.
Drink up.
You investigated thoroughly,
...and he turns out to be family.
Shall we keep following him?
Follow?
If we keep following then Jiang Xiaoxuan and Xue'erwill report it to Madam
and will expose my liaison with Second Prince
Three years of work.
If there is something between them two
they will definitely leave some tracks
This Qilin's brain is quite smart!
How was it? How did Fat Tiger do?
Fat Tiger pretended to know you.
Butler Liu believed him.
He made a mistake and... fixed it again.
Scared me.
Oh right,
and also, I warned Li Jun
to not talk about the situation to anyone else
or else I would send people for revenge.
Scaring him a little is good.
Qilin, I should really thank you for this.
If it wasn't for you, I probably wouldn't be able to leave.
Miss Jiang, what is there to thank?
And also, helping you is also helping me.
I think this Fat Tiger treats you pretty well.
Of course, he is like my bro.
But this is only the first step.
What should we do next?
The moon looks like
it is getting rounder by the minute.
Considering our state,
the next step seems even harder.
Yes, what can we do then?
Then, if what you say is the same
If Madam Jin is a zither expert
I can see that this would be really hard then.
It's the end then. What to do?
Where can I get some magic medicine...
...that can turn me into you?
What is it? Still not coming out?
Such arrogance!
No wonder Xiaoxuan is taking so long.
As expected she is...
...getting in the right mood.
Let's hope it's not arrogance.
Arrogant or not...
...getting in the mood for you is always good.
Mother.
Xiao Xuan is sincerely preparing it for you.
That's why she taking so much trouble.
Go tell Xiao Xuan we can start.
Your daughter-in-law will begin now.
That Jiang woman is not bad at all.
Good performance.
You call this good?
It's not good?
Brother.
You don't know what smart-ass came up with this.
I, Yu Qilin, am so smart.
I could even come up with such an idea.
I should really praise myself.
Here,
you stay here. They can't see you.
You be good and play here
Then I will copy you over there
Hurry.
I'm going there now.
Go quickly!
I told you it wasn't good.
Play slowly.
You want to get me in trouble?
When I'm gonna see you...
...you'll see what I'll do.
Play slower!
Mother-In-Law...
...I just got too absorbed in it!
That's why I lost it completely.
So,
I raise my head when the moon is bright
no matter full or new, wishing you a good night!
Not too bad, Young Master.
How come she's...
...coming with a poem?
Mother.
Those old wise scholars
don't they all sing and play at the same time?
Who wrote the poem that Xiaoxuan just recited?
How come I never heard it?
Right!
She must be against original poems.
Mother. It's like this...
Those books are thousands of years old.
A lot have already been lost
So a lot of words to poems have also changed
You see
This Xiao Xuan... is a genius.
The knowledge she has might be what we're unaware of.
So it's really common for her to say unusual things.
What you say is right.
How can you be so sluggish.
Are you going to play or not?
Qianqian, don't cause trouble.
Blaming me?
Xiaoxuan.
This song, stopped halfway
I feel like I can't let it go
Continue playing.
Yes.
Zither and flute, carefree and relaxed.
But of course.
Granted by the Empress Dowager
It must be the match made in heaven.
It was clearly a blunder just then
Just distorting the facts.
Good my ass
Mother, my disgraceful offer.
Hey, what was up just now?
You played the song halfway through, and just stopped suddenly?
Failed, right?
Actually, that wasn't failing.
It was part of the plan.
Since we're a harmonious couple...
...our instruments match.
We played 'Mountains High Waters Deep' for mother.
It needs an ensemble.
A style as unique as heavenly clothes.
Xiaoxuan and Yuanbao...
You guys worked hard.
Thank you Mother for the praise.
If I hadn't saved you I'm afraid...
...you would have been embarrassed in front of my mother.
Tell me, how are you going to repay me?
Repay what?
You are my husband. Protecting me is your job.
Why is this hairpin of yours so ugly?
How come you behave so bad around me?
None of your business.
I have something to do, go now.
Alright then!
Such an idiot!
Cheers to a successful performance!
Congratulations for your success.
Thank you Big Miss Jiang
It's also because of you that I succeeded in front of Madam.
You are the one who should be thanked.
If it wasn't for you and the situation with Li Jun,
I think he would have betrayed me earlier.
I would never have left this city...
...or been able to even leave the Jin Mansion.
No thanks is needed between the two of us.
Now that we're both in the same boat,
I have decided to be honest with you...
and I won't keep secrets.
What? You have secrets?
Tell me.
Actually, I came to the Jin household
...to help my nanny find her biological son.
Biological son?
Then did you find him?
Yes.
It's Jin Yuanbao.
Jin Yuanbao?
Madam Jin didn't give birth to Jin Yuanbao?
Are you sure you are not wrong?
I'm not. I've thoroughly investigated.
Jin Yuanbao has a moon birthmark on his body.
Now what happens?
My mother...is my nanny.
She used to be General Jin's concubine.
Master Jin loved her
but the heavens didn't allow it
Soon after she gave birth to Jin Yuanbao,
Master Jin died in battle.
Because Madam Jin never had a child of her own,
she took Jin Yuanbao from my nanny
and kicked her out of the Jin household.
That's what happened.
I grew up in a big household.
I have also suffered.
So I won't marry just anyone that I do not love.
At our place, the women were always fighting.
Like the the glint and flash of cold steel.
They were vicious and greedy.
All these years, my mother
didn't reunite with Jin Yuanbao
because she knew Madam Jin's personality.
She knew Madam Jin would take good care of him.
So she was afraid that her reappearance
would ruin the lives they were used to.
But I didn't agree.
I refused to accept it.
What right does she have?
It was hard being pregnant for ten months
and giving birth to her son,
And then Madam Jin
just took her son away from her!
So I promised
that I would bring her son back to her
and make him call her "Mother".
But haven't you already found Jin Yuanbao?
Why don't you tell him?
And bring him to his mother?
Actually, we already visited her.
He has already seen her.
Then why didn't they reunite?
It has already been so many years,
and we have no evidence whatsoever.
Also, if it came from my mouth,
do you think Jin Yuanbao would believe me?
If I just take him there and then say...
...'this is your biological mother'.
You need to know
that for Jin Yuanbao
Madame Jin is his
one and only mother.
I can finally understand
why you came here and did what you did.
Seeing the son that you lost twenty years ago...
...and not being acknowledged...
...is really a tragedy.
Yes.
Going back this time,
there were a few instances where I really wanted to say the truth.
But my mother stopped me.
So then,
I returned to the Jin household
to find another chance
that I must grasp.
And then next time we go, I will
bring Jin Yuanbao back to his real mother.
