[Scarlet Heart]
[Final Episode 35]
[Fourteenth Prince's second princess consort, Maertai Ruo Xi]
[has passed away yesterday.]
Maertai Ruo Xi.
How dare you die without my permission?
You can't die!
Where's the letter?
Royal Brother.
Where's the letter?
Fourth Prince.
Life is like a dream and is so unpredictable.
Nothing can be absolutely right or wrong.
Even though everyone began to get on with their lives again
I'm still finding it hard to forget about everything.
When someone casually told me that he wanted the throne
he already held the key to my heart.
When he threw away his umbrella
and stood by me and suffered with me in the rain
I already opened my heart to him.
When he got shot by an arrow as he tried to protect me...
I knew I'd never be able to forget about him.
From then on
I could no longer tell what was right and wrong.
Now
would you still ask about me and Eighth Prince?
Love causes anger and hatred.
Love causes craziness and longing.
Ever since I left you
my anger, hatred, craziness, and longing have all turned into thoughts about you.
I wonder if you're still blaming me
hating me and angry at me now.
As I sit under the purple vines in the silence of the night
and write you this letter
the man I'm thinking of is not the emperor
but is actually Fourth Prince who had stolen my heart.
Even though I miss you dearly, we're no longer close anymore.
You've only become so heartless because of your love for me.
The distance between us is killing me.
These words are being blurred by my tears.
I wish I could finally see you one day.
I'll be waiting for you every day.
Ruo Xi.
Take me to her.
I want to see her.
Young Miss.
Only Fourteenth Prince is allowed to stay inside.
He said Princess Consort preferred quiet--
Shut up. There's no princess consort here.
You may go.
Ruo Xi.
He's finally come to see you.
Ruo Xi.
When I said goodbye to you last time
I thought we'd still see each other again.
I thought I'd have a chance to come and visit you.
But...
Where's her coffin?
Why isn't her coffin here?
Maybe she's not dead.
He probably just lied to us.
Ruo Xi?
Fourteenth Brother, come out!
Fourteenth Brother.
Why is there just a plaque?
Where's her coffin?
Ruo Xi's in here.
What do you mean?
I've already cremated her.
Ruo Xi.
- I'm going to kill you! - Royal Brother.
Calm down, Royal Brother!
Fourteenth Brother would never do that to Ruo Xi.
Let me ask him.
I see you're in a panic now.
Where were you before?
Do you know how long Ruo Xi waited for you?
Stop pretending that you care about her.
It's all your fault. Stop blaming me!
- I'm going to kill you. - Stop it!
Since it was your handwriting on the envelope
he thought you were trying to make him jealous.
That's why he put the letter aside.
Even if you didn't read the letter
I'm sure you have many spies here.
Didn't they tell you about Ruo Xi's condition at all?
The reason you came up with all those tricks
was because you didn't want him to listen to any more updates on Ruo Xi.
So why would you say that?
I see.
Ruo Xi.
I didn't mean it.
After I practiced my sword skills
I did trick your spy into believing that Ruo Xi and I were very close.
But that's just because I felt annoyed
and wanted to make you jealous.
But then I discovered that I really enjoyed talking to Ruo Xi.
It felt as if we had gone back to the good old days.
Although there was a screen between us
knowing that Ruo Xi was lying on the other side of it, I--
Shut up!
Why?
Why did you do that to Ruo Xi?
It was her own request.
She kept begging me
to scatter her ashes in the breeze on a windy day
so that she could be free.
She said she didn't want to smell bad.
She didn't want to be buried in the ground and...
and get bitten by bugs.
Let's go home.
Ruo Xi's my princess consort. You can't take her away.
It's up to me to decide whether she's your princess consort or not.
I never wrote her name in our family record
and you never had a wedding ceremony.
I never got to see Royal Father before he passed away.
I also never said my final goodbye to Mother.
How dare you try to take away my princess consort now?
So what if I do?
Fourteenth Brother.
Please try to be a bit more understanding.
I'm sure
even Ruo Xi would want to go with Royal Brother.
What a joke. If that's the case
then why did she leave Forbidden City?
Fourteenth Prince.
It would be Young Miss's wish to do so.
Please let the emperor take her back.
I'm sure she'd love to go with him.
Your Majesty.
Please come outside with me.
Fourteenth Brother.
If you really want Ruo Xi to be happy
then just let go.
Ruo Xi already had a really difficult life.
She was always worried about
Eighth Brother, Tenth Brother, and you.
Now that she's already gone...
let's just let her have some peace and quiet.
Please come in, Your Majesty.
Young Miss spent most of her days practicing calligraphy.
She only stopped when she could no longer hold a pen in her hand.
Your Majesty.
All these were written by Young Miss.
[When you think water has run out]
[just look up and you'll realize it's just turned into clouds in the sky.]
Young Miss also left these behind.
I was going to keep them as mementos.
But I think it might be more appropriate
to give them to you, Your Majesty.
Did she say anything...
before she died?
Since she thought you still hated her
and didn't want to see her
she didn't leave any messages for you.
You may go.
Ruo Xi.
Young Miss knew you'd come, Thirteenth Prince.
That's why she left this letter for you.
Thirteenth Prince.
I've been very lucky to have met you
and become friends with you.
You're the only person whom I can rely on.
I know that this might get you into trouble
but I'm sure the Tough Prince won't be scared at all.
Please take this strip of cloth.
Young Miss would like you to give it to Ninth Prince.
Young Miss didn't leave behind a lot of money.
She asked me to give half of her jewelry to Eunuch Wang Xi.
However...
Not long after Ruo Xi left
Wang Xi fell into the river and drowned.
I'm afraid he won't be needing them.
Young Miss also said
since Wang Xi's a smart person
he won't be needing these.
So she asked me to give them to his family instead.
Royal Brother's already given his family a huge reward.
So what are your plans for the future?
Both Madam and Young Miss have given me their money.
Young Miss said I can do whatever I want.
I'd like to serve Princess Cheng Huan.
Young Miss has left this jade charm for her.
Okay.
That was my plan
but I didn't want to force you.
Since it's also what you want
you can look after Cheng Huan
after I bring her back home.
Thank you, Thirteenth Prince.
Nian Geng Yao's already received your order.
He's returned the commander-in-chief's seal to the imperial commissioner.
Royal Brother.
Ruo Xi would be very upset
if she sees you like this.
The empress has been waiting outside for a long time.
She's been looking after you since you were young.
Don't you think you should be a little considerate to her, Royal Brother?
- I want to see the emperor. - Eighth Prince.
- Let me go inside! - Eighth Prince.
Let him in.
Eighth Brother, Ruo Xi's already died.
Please don't cause any trouble.
You better go back.
Ruo Xi
had once belonged to my manor.
Now that she's died
can't I even see her one last time?
She's right here.
Now that you've seen her...
you may go.
How could you do that to her?
Since you already let her leave Forbidden City
why didn't you give her a proper burial?
Eighth Brother.
It was Ruo Xi's own request.
It's true.
She always had a mind of her own.
Perhaps it's the only way
for her to be with the man she really loves.
Back then
I gave up Ruo Xi because of the throne.
I also broke the promise
that I'd made her.
But now
you also gave up the chance to be with her
because of the Great Qing
as well as our past resentment.
Just like me
even though you once had it in your hands
in the end
you still lost it.
When it comes to Ruo Xi
just like me
you're a loser.
Get out.
I'm still the emperor of the Great Qing.
Get out!
You're right.
You're certainly the almighty emperor.
However...
I'll always be me.
They shall be abolished of their titles
and removed from the royal family record.
As for their wives and concubines
they shall be abolished of their ranks.
All their children and grandchildren will be removed from the royal family record
and be put under their own family trees.
Eighth Prince changed his name to E Qi Na
meaning "waiting to be killed."
He changed his son's name to Pu Sa Bao
and hoped that Emperor Yong Zheng
would show mercy and exempt him from death.
Ninth Prince insisted on using his own name
but Emperor Yong Zheng renamed him as Sai Si Hei
meaning "annoying creep."
Ruo Xi.
You can finally
have the freedom that you always wanted to have
and go back to the modern world that you used to talk about all the time.
On the night of Tenth Brother's wedding
I took Ruo Xi to the wilderness and drank with her.
After she got a little drunk
she told me
that she wasn't from this era
and that she'd come from the modern world.
I thought she was only being silly at the time.
But come to think of it now
I'd rather choose to believe
that she has gone back to her own world.
Actually I'm not Ruo Xi.
I'm Zhang Xiao.
I don't belong to your world.
I'm scared that
I'll have to leave against my will one day.
Just like the way I ended up here.
I hope you have really gone back to your own era.
Are you awake? Doctor.
- She's awake. - She is? Hurry.
Let me see.
[The Qing dynasty's harem]
[Tea servant]
[Maertai Ruo Xi]
[No matching search results]
[Emperor Kangxi's sons]
[Their relationships and endings]
Thirteenth Brother, you're certainly quite free today.
Why did you come to see me
when you could have stayed home and watched the snow?
Someone has asked me
to give you this, Ninth Brother.
[Yu Tan doesn't regret anything.]
Why didn't she hate me?
Why?
Ruo Xi, no wonder you're Fourth Brother's woman.
No, you're even more ruthless than he is.
All he can do is torture me physically
and kill me at the worst.
But you actually made me die so painfully
and with so much guilt and regret.
Don't even try to stop me.
I must have a word with that mean emperor.
Go on, no one's stopping you.
Listen, don't you try to stop me.
- I'm going to teach him a lesson. - Nobody's stopping you.
I...
I'll dig up his ancestors' graves.
I'll also curse all his ancestors!
But I thought you have the same ancestors.
What if your ancestors come and take revenge?
Really?
I don't know what else to say.
You're always more quick-witted than I am.
That's the fun of arguing.
All right, why don't you take a seat?
Come here, sit down.
Here, slowly.
I didn't want to interrupt you since you were having so much fun.
Look at you.
You should be more careful now that your stomach is so big.
You shouldn't be so worried.
I'm not worried.
I can't believe we're going to have twins.
Who cares if Fourth Brother's going to torture us?
- I'll just ignore him. - That's the way.
You're getting better at this.
Your calmness
reminds me of the peace-loving Consort De.
Of course.
I should thank Royal Brother
for locking me up in Mother's room.
It's given me much peace and quiet.
I now get to pay respects to Mother every day
and read the books that she used to read.
It really reminds me of the good old days
when all I had to do was live each day with pleasure.
Mother was always there to take care of all my troubles.
Among all the brothers
I guess
you're the one who has the best life.
That's right.
I can play chess and chat with you all the time
and be looked after by my caring princess consort.
I really don't feel lonely at all.
Come to think of it now
I'd rather have such a peaceful life...
than the throne that I've been fighting for all my life.
Will the emperor blame you for this?
I'll tell him
that it was Ruo Xi's final wish.
Even if he gets angry
he won't say anything.
I'm going.
If I'm lucky enough to have a complete body
then
please bury Ming Hui's ashes alongside my body.
But if I get cremated
then
please make sure you scatter her ashes along with mine.
Since I wasn't able to grow old with her
before she died
the least I can do
is to fulfill her one and only wish now.
Hong Wang--
The emperor won't punish Hong Wang.
Don't worry, Eighth Brother.
I'll definitely protect him
for as long as I live.
I won't be able to pay you back...
for everything that you've done for me.
Ruo Xi.
Thank you.
Father.
Qiao Hui.
Yes.
Please...
take care of Cheng Huan for me.
Don't worry, Thirteenth Prince.
Fourth Brother.
I'm afraid
I can't
help you anymore.
We've always been the closest brothers.
You shouldn't say that.
Before Ruo Xi died...
she asked us all
to forget about her.
Actually
none of us has ever forgotten about her.
I guess...
I'll see you again
in my next life.
Father!
- Father. - Thirteenth Prince.
Thirteenth Prince.
Father.
[Yong Zheng]
They've all left already.
I'm the only one left behind.
[Emperor Yong Zheng passed away in his 13th year of reign]
[and was buried in Xi Ning.]
I wasn't able to find any trace of Maertai Ruo Xi at all.
It's as if she'd never existed in that part of history.
Could it be possible that what I'd gone through for over 10 years
as well as my relationship with Fourth Prince weren't real at all?
Was it just a dream?
[Qing Dynasty Exhibition]
[Venue: Nan Shan Museum]
[Nan Shan Museum]
I really existed.
I was really there.
Do we know each other?
[If we'd never met, we wouldn't have fallen in love.]
[Then we wouldn't be missing each other now.]
[Now all we do is yearn for the freedom that we once had.]
[I'd rather say goodbye to you now than let death part us.]
