[The King's Woman]
[Episode 9]
It's late already. Liangren should rest now.
I'll take my leave.
- You are... - You witch!
You dare to seduce my man?!
- I am going to strangle you to death! - Who are you?!
- It was you!
- Let go. - It was you!
- Let go. - He doesn't want me anymore. I am going to kill you!
What are you doing?!
Who is she?
Why aren't you visiting me?
Because you have a new love now, you don't want me anymore?
You heartless thing!
You cannot treat me like this!
- Zhao Gao! - I'm here. - You cannot treat me like this!
Take Queen Dowager back to the South Palace. Without my order,
- she is not allowed to leave the premises. - Queen Dowager? Then it means she is Ying Zheng's mother.
- I won't go! - Come. Let us go back to your palace.
- I don't want to go back. I want to go back to Handan. - Queen Dowager...
I want to go back to Handan!
I'm not leaving!
Did you get scared?
That person earlier was your mother?
What happened to her? Who is she cursing?
You are willing to talk with me
just to ask that?
Yes. Or else, I don't even want to hear your voice.
I don't even want to see your face.
But I can only lie on this bed
and you are the king of this palace.
What can I do?
In the whole six states,
I fear that only you can dare talk with me like that.
Ying Zheng, you think too highly of yourself.
Just the people I know who are cursing you, my ten fingers will not even be enough.
Does it include your Senior?
Rest well. I will send someone to guard your chambers day and night.
South Palace, Xianyang Royal Palace
Marquis of Wenxin has already been driven out of the capital by me.
Right now, all women in this palace are my women.
You are lying.
Lü Buwei has served the Qin State carefully and conscientiously for half of his life!
How can he just leave like that?!
Could it be he doesn't want me anymore so he made you lie to me?
Can you be more sane?!
Right now, this is my Qin.
As long as I think of it, I can let anyone live or die.
This isn't Lü Buwe's territory anymore.
Yes. You have driven Lü Buwei away.
My Lao Ai also was killed by you.
And those two children of mine.
Those innocent children of mine.
They were illegitimate children!
They were illegitimate children that you had with that disgusting Lao Ai.
They are my Qin's disgrace.
I easily killed your children like that to give you a straightforward resolution.
Yes, you indeed are happy now.
You have already killed all of them!
How am I going to live then?
I am your mother!
You tell me how am I to live? Why are you so cruel?!
It was your man who wanted to kill me!
How do you want me to deal with him?
Do you even have acted like my mother?
A respect and grace that a Queen Dowager should have, in all its glory.
You don't have any.
You connived with Chancellor, with your man, indulging in your sexual desires and being unbridled.
I am the King of Qin
but I have to suffer being mocked by everyone. It was all because of you!
Fine then.
Then just let me be with Chancellor.
Where is he?
Send me to where he is.
I want to be with him.
I don't want to stay here.
This place is very dark.
Very cold.
Very scary.
- Servant! - Here.
Ask for a prescription for Queen Dowager
- to let her rest well. - Yes.
- I don't want to...I don't want to take any medicine! - Queen Dowager.
I don't want to!
- Queen Dowager. - Let me out!
Let me out!
What did you say?
Not only did His Majesty send royal guards to guard Concubine Li's chambers,
he even sent her a lot of rare and precious gifts?
That Wei State witch, what skills does she really have
that she was able to bewitch His Majesty like this.
In terms of family background, Madam, you are superior than her thousands of times.
In terms of beauty, you and Concubine Li is like clouds and mud, totally are not the same level.
Could it be that Concubine Li has some unique skills
that's making His Majesty think about her day and night and unable to think of anyone else.
I'm really so angry.
- Hurry and massage me more. - Yes.
Oh, right, I told you to look for a Chu musician
so we can get Queen Dowager Huayang's favor when the time is right. Have you already done it?
Madam, don't worry. I already sent someone to do it beforehand.
Right now, the person is just outside the palace.
As long as Madam orders it, he can come inside the palace to perform anytime.
Very good.
- But... -Madam, this Li liangren can be said to have a blessed life.
That prescription didn't work.
Causing her stomach to grow bigger and bigger.
If we are to make our move again in he future, I would be hard already.
Average Attendant Eunuch is here.
Greetings, Madam Chu.
Skip the formalities.
Thank you, Madam.
I was ordered by His Majesty
to investigate the almost miscarriage of Li liangren here in the palace.
What evidence does Lord has that you reached the Zhaode Palace?
The one who lives here is a top level royal concubine.
Replying to Madam, I've already investigated the royal kitchen and everyone here in the royal harem.
There was only one thing that I didn't understand.
I want to ask Madam Chu about it.
I heard that a few days before Li liangren almost had a miscarriage,
Madam Chu, you had asked for a prescription from the royal physician.
Lord, now that Li liangren is pregnant with a royal descendant,
this is a happy matter here in the palace. I, of course, would want her to have a safe and peaceful pregnancy
so she can add children to His Majesty and add to his life.
But whether these descendants are something that Grand Queend Doager will want,
That is also not something that I am able to worry about.
Are these words of Madam trying to blame this matter to Queen Dowager Huayang?
I will tell you then.
If His Majesty wants the world,
then what Grand Queen Dowager wants is dignity.
Now that the world has the south Chu, east Qi, north Yan, center Zhao,
no matter how much you calculate it, the head hear in the inner palace
won't end up in the hands of a measly Wei woman.
His Majesty knows this principle well.
As long as Lord won't tell His Majesty the truth,
there surely is no need for His Majesty to continue investigating in more depth such measly matter here in the royal harem and not let go, right?
Madam Chu.
Lord, do you recognize this?
This is a top of the line jade from our Chu state.
If Lord likes it, I'll give it to you.
What Madam said were very reasonable.
Earlier, I got rude.
Hope Madam and Queen Dowager Huayang can fogive me.
Lord, don't worry. I know that Lord is carrying a heavy task right now.
I surely will put in a few praises regarding Lord in front of Grand Queen Dowager.
Thanks, Madam. I'll take my leave.
Lord, take care.
Informing Your Majesty, I already investigated the royal kitchen, the storage room,
and the chambers of all the royal harems. I didn't notice anyone suspicious.
Wrong.
You already found out something.
It's just that you can't tell me.
Your Majesty, I indeed have investigate it very clearly and meticulously.
It's just that...
It's just that there is someone more powerful than me in this palace.
You cannot say it, is that it?
Your Majesty, please spare me!
If you still won't say it,
I will kill you now.
Don't kill him.
If you keep investigating like this, don't know how many lives will get involved.
Anyway, I and the child in my womb are fine now. Let's just let this matter go.
If I don't kill a few people,
who else will put importance on me?
I am scared. Your Majesty, please spare me.
If you keep counting like this, those lives will eventually get blamed on me and my child.
I don't my unborn child to bear these debts.
Your Majesty...
Leave!
Thank you, Your Majesty!
Thank you, Li liangren.
Li Zhong.
In your opinion, in this matter about the poisoning of Li liangren's dinner,
it surely wasn't done by an outsider, right?
Replying to Your Majesty, the royal palace has always been strictly guarded and the royal concubines are dwelling in the inner palace.
There has never been any outsiders that has recently infiltrated.
Talking about an outsider, there was indeed one a few months ago.
It happened a few days after Li liangren entered the palace.
Chamberlain, you said earlier that an outsider infiltrated the inner palace?
With the strict defense of our Qin palace, it is indeed impossible for an outsider to sneak into the inner palace.
From what I know, this person has already been arrested while at the royal garden of the outer palace.
But I am quite curious
why madam wants to know about it.
I...was just casually asking.
Then if a person like that gets arrested, how do you deal with him?
Trespassing into the royal palace is a crime punishable by death.
Usually, they will first get sent to the royal prison and then interrogated and tortured.
If this person didn't die, he will be sent to the punishment land and do hard labor.
How come liangren is very interested on this outsider criminal?
It's my first time to enter the palace. Just curiosity.
Rest well.
Just instruct your servants on whatever you need. They will serve you.
I don't want anything.
I just want to ask if you can return to me the dagger that my grandfather gave me.
Give up on that.
Liangren, why don't you rest for awhile.
Qing'er, I want to be alone for awhile. Go out now.
Liangren...
Fine. I'll just wait outside.
- Liangren, if you need anything, just call me. - Okay.
Can you hear my voice?
Senior...
We have a child now.
I just hope that you can be safe.
Don't suffer anymore just because of me.

This soldier, please do me a favor.
- Say it. Who am I releasing? - Please release that man.
That man?
Sure.
What are you trying to do?
You should be thankful that you are lucky. For the others, move. Let's continue walking!
Hurry! Get up! What are you looking at?
Hurry and go! Hurry, get up! Get up!
Keep up. Get up.
Hurry!
Hurry and get up!
Hurry up a little! Hurry!
Hurry and move!
Hurry up! Hurry!
Young Warrior Jing.
Lord.
I followed you to Xianyang that day.
But I wasn't able to find you in the city.
I guessed that you must have been caught already.
I spent some effort to get some news about you.
They said that you trespassed into the royal palace that night and actually should be executed.
I hurriedly went around
and after asking several connections, I finally found news about you.
Young Warrior Jing, you have suffered.
Never thought that Lord has been rushing about for me.
But now, I feel worse than dying.
It would have been better if you just let me die inside the Qin prison. I won't regret it.
Young Warrior Jing, there is no death in this world that is not regrettable.
Especially yours.
Me?
As a warrior, my martial arts skills were not at par.
I was unable to protect the people by my side.
As a man, I wasn't capable enough.
I wasn't able to protect my own woman.
I really don't know what the point is
for a useless person like me to continue living in this world.
Young Warrior Jing, you must not speak like this.
Miss Gongsun sacrificed so much to save your life.
Do you know why?
Because she knew that you had accepted Great Warrior Gongsun's
mission to keep his martial arts going.
That is why she let you improve your swordplay.
Perhaps you could change the world for the people who are suffering.
So, you must not disappoint
Miss Gongsun's expectations for you.
She sacrifices herself for the world.
She sacrifices herself for me. But me?
I cannot even protect the one I love. How can I protect the people?
What can I do to help these troubled times?
I understand your pain right now.
Listen to me and come with me to the State of Yan.
After we get there, we can make further plans.
♫ The way you look at me is filled with love. ♫
♫ It is also a scar I am unwilling to remove. ♫
Let's visit famous mountains together and jump over rivers. ♫ It is also a scar I am unwilling to remove. ♫
Because mountain paths are rugged, when I cannot continue, ♫ The road is long. My heart has chased him afar, ♫
Senior Brother will grab my hand and take me to the mountaintop. ♫ but who is the first one to forget? ♫
If we really could. Would Senior Brother be willing? ♫ How could I be satisfied with being unable to see through this? ♫
♫ My empty tears are tied down and are unable to be released. ♫
♫ What to do? Even if I turn around, I am destined to be alone, ♫
I'm just afraid you don't practice well and end up getting cold. ♫ but I do not demand forgiveness. ♫
How about it? Aren't I a great person? ♫ but I do not demand forgiveness. ♫
Having you like this, what else could I ask for? ♫ The road is long. My heart has chased him afar, ♫
I only want to find a beautiful, happy place with you, ♫ The road is long. My heart has chased him afar, ♫
far away from the grievances of the Jianghu realm, and be an ordinary couple. ♫ but who is the first one to forget? ♫
♫ How could I be satisfied with being unable to see through this? ♫
Let us go. ♫ How could I be satisfied with being unable to see through this? ♫
♫ My empty tears are tied down and are unable to be released. ♫
♫ What to do? Even if I turn around, I am destined to be alone, ♫
♫ but I do not demand forgiveness. ♫
What is the conclusion?
Congratulations Your Majesty. The fetus in Li Liangren is stable.
Her body is recovering well.
As long as she takes care of the fetus, she will have an easy birth.
Congratulations Your Majesty. Congratulations Liangren.
From now on, Li Liangren and I will eat together.
If anyone dares to tamper the meals,
it is treated as being disrespectful to me. Zhao Gao.
Present.
Pass my orders. Do not overlook anything.
Yes. I am taking my leave.
Everyone leave.
Yes.
Do you need to do this?
Did you not always want my fetus to die?
I really do not care about your child,
but I want you to be alive.
Reporting to Your Majesty.
The evening meal you prepared especially for Virtuous Lady is ready. Please eat.
You may leave.
Yes.
Come, eat.
I have no appetite. You eat.
If you do not eat, I will not eat either.
If that's the case, then I will refuse to eat for three months.
I will starve you to death and do the people a favor.
♫ I looked up. The sky has turned dark again. ♫
If you still dare to move recklessly,
I will do even scarier things. Do you believe me? ♫ I prayed for my blue wish. ♫
♫ In the bamboo forest, the falling leaves create a line. ♫
♫ Narrating in details the changes in things as time passes. ♫
♫ Yet I cannot turn against the already ascertain curve. ♫
♫ Who is still in the domain of someone's heart? ♫
Eat. ♫ Who is still in the domain of someone's heart? ♫
I originally wanted to eat, but the more you force me, the more I refuse to. ♫ If my heart is not at ease, I cannot pretend to like something. ♫
Okay then. ♫ Is the secular world like smoke? ♫
♫ The way you look at me is filled with love. ♫
♫ It is also a scar I am unwilling to remove. ♫
If you still don't eat, then I will feed you one by one. ♫ The road is long. My heart has chased him afar, ♫

I will eat. ♫ but I do not demand forgiveness. ♫
♫ I look across the mountains and rivers. My yearnings for you are true. ♫
♫ Over years and months, my pain remains deep. ♫
Come. ♫ While I try to mask my laughter, the flowers fall like tears. ♫
I can do it myself. ♫ I have merely turned around. ♫
Senior Brother.
Li'er.
♫ The night is slightly cold, the moon is indistinct. I raise my glass to the war casualties. ♫
Li'er, is that you? ♫ The flower falls as the wind blows; frost forms over one's brows. ♫
It hurts so much to think of you. ♫ My dreams are too long. They are difficult to forget. ♫
It hurts to miss someone. It also hurts to not miss someone. ♫ I keep thinking about them as I toss and turn in bed. ♫
It is originally painful to live. ♫ The rain falls on the window frame, knocking down two rows of tears ♫
Li'er, what are you saying? Why can't I hear you? ♫ Recalling the past, they are like facades. ♫
I really don't understand. ♫ Only an empty scene. ♫
Senior Brother, you don't need to understand. You really don't. ♫ Several golden millet entwine around several worries. ♫
Just like counting the riverside fishing boat lights and the sheep in a pasture, ♫ Even swallows and phoenixes are in pairs. ♫
there never was any real meaning. ♫ Fate is short, but the love is too long. ♫
So you do not need to understand. ♫ Who is looking forward to who goes back to whose side? ♫
Senior Brother, I have a question. ♫ It is unable to be cut off. ♫
Back then, I wanted you to leave everything and go far away with me. ♫ The more you try to reason it, the more confusing it gets. The thing that you can't wave off is the parting sorrow that is rotating around your finger tip. ♫
You did not agree. Now to you regret it? ♫ Love and hate endlessly cycles. My heart is uneasy. ♫
♫ The fate that was created in the past lifetime has changed to accompaniment in this lifetime. ♫
♫ Time passes unhurried time, unable to let go. I can't bear to part or forget. This love has not ended. ♫

Xiao Er! Another jar of wine!
Is this not Gongsun Yu's disciple, Young Warrior Jing?
Hand over your teacher's Huluo Sword Manual!
What manual?
I do not know. Do not block me.
Will you hand it over or not?
Get up!
You should be obedient and hand it over. Then you can avoid a beating.
It is no rush. After I take you back to the Danding Sect,
I will pull out your fingernail today.
Tomorrow, I will cut off a piece of your flesh.
I do not think you will keep silent.
Go ahead and kill me if you want! Stop dragging your feet!
You want to die?
Ge Nie?!
The world's best swordsman, Ge Nie!
Not bad.
Xiahou Yang's little dogs know who I am.
Ge Nie! What do you want?
Be smart and let that young man go.
Or else, I can only
teach Xiahou Yang's dogs for him.
Let's go!
Brother Jing!
Brother Jing, are you okay?
Brother Jing!
I made a feast today!
You must eat a lot today! The one who eats the least
has to spar with me later!
Got it?
Miss Lan, you are very talented.
Thank you, Senior.
They are just some simple dishes.
You are being too humble. Today, Lady Lan and Warrior Geng were able to come to my simple house.
This is really bringing glitter to my humble abode.
Great Warrior Ge, come. I will drink a cup to you.
Brother Jing.
Does the food not suit your tastes?
Tell me what you like to eat. I will go make it for you.
There is no need.
Today, it is thanks to Senior's help.
Thank you.
But my life is wretched.
I am not worthy of your saving.
I hope you will not interfere in the future.
Farewell.
Brother Jing! Brother Jing!
Your stomach is full of suffering and there is nowhere for you to rant?
You will not eat, but run to here to cool off in the shade.
What does it have to do with you?
It has nothing to do with me.
But your rudeness is to my liking.
Compared to the past, where you were always so polite,
kept bowing and being respectful, that good-for-nothing man, this is way better.
Is that so?
If you like, I can be more rude.
Alright.
Then I will play with you.
If you can hit me, then you win.
Based on your current sword and inner power skills,
even if you practice for another three hundred years, you cannot save your junior sister.
You would not take me as your disciple that day.
Today, you come to laugh at me. How heroic!
Young Warrior Jing.
Your teacher's swordplay is on my level.
Regarding looking for a teacher, why must you still look far and overlook what's in front of you?
But my teacher, he-!
Do you think that your teacher is kind and gentle.
He does not like to fight with others.
So, you suspect his martial arts skills?
Then you do not know your teacher well at all.
Do you know what your teacher's former name in the jianghu realm was?
Teacher never told me.
Because he did not like talking about the past.
In the past, in the jianghu realm, your teacher
People call him Blood Shadow.
As long as he attacked, blood flowed like flowers blooming.
You are weak from the birth.
Let the wet nurse look after the child for now.
Are you
going to take Tian Ming away?
-Li Zhong! -I am here.
About the royal physician and midwife that helped Li liangren to deliver, send order to Yao Jiao
to deal with them cleanly so as to prevent any future troubles.
Are you afraid there will be rumors in the future about Li liangren's prince?
Do I need to explain my orders?
Queen Dowager.
Liangren is not following instructions. This is going against palace rules.
Slap her.
Yes.
You-!
Move aside!
Hit me if you want! Do not hit Qing'er!
-Stop! -Liangren!
Who are you?
