The King's Woman
Episode 15
Between midnight and after midnight, the two groups of guards change shifts.
While there is no one here, this is our only chance.
Let us go.
Junior Sister. You still cannot bear to leave Tianming?
If we leave like this, what will happen in the next few days?
I thought about it.
Just thinking about it and I already can't bear to be heartless.
We are just temporarily leaving Tianming here. Once everything is settled, I will find a way to come and get him.
During this time, I ascertained the palace guards' patterns.
Even if I come back a few more times, nothing will go wrong. Believe me.
But...
But, something like this just happened recently.
If I am not by Tianming's side, someone will harm him.
I believe that Ying Zheng will protect him.
I can tell that Ying Zheng treats you as a treasure.
He should know that if anything happens to Tianming, you will not return again.
Contrarily, Tianming is his only hope of your return to Qin. He will do his best to protect him.
The next group of guards is coming. If we do not go now, we will lose our chance.
Junior Sister! Do you not want to leave?
Let us go.
Brother Gao?
Try this. This one tastes good.
Hello, Boss. Have you seen a
tall and slim man, with a Wey accent, and carrying a long sword?
Tall and slim?
A Wey accent? Sorry Miss, I did not see him.
-Thank you. -Go slowly.
Take a look!
It is cheap!
Little Brother Jing, I urge you to be serious.
The famous Gongsun swordplay cannot be just this.
I am the one lacking, not the Gongsun swordplay.
Oh?
In this world, the Gongsun swordplay,
besides you, who else can use it?
If you are not good, then it means that the Gongsun Sword Technique is not good.
Alright. Jing Ke, this is the power of your Gongsun swordplay.
It is just that you have worries and hindrances in your heart that you cannot fully showcase it.
You care about the jianghu realm, care about your sect, care about your master,
or care about your family. Do you know that
all of these are worries and hindrances for a swordsman.
Remember. In this world,
the only real values are yourself and the sword in your hand.
Brother Gao. I understand what you are saying.
But letting go of all of this is not easy.
It is no rush. As long as you are still on this path,
one day, you will put them all down.
Come! Let us practice again!
Zhongchang Attendant, what happened here?
Miss Qing. Your Madame Li has disappeared. Did you not know?
She disappeared? I did not know!
Last night, Madame said she wanted to sleep in today.
She told me to wake her up later! I just arrived!
It seems like you had planned this a long time ago!
My Lord, what do you mean?
I guess that Madame Li's disappearance was plotted long ago.
Perhaps, she worked with someone by her side!
Impossible! Madame would never leave Prince Tianming and leave the palace herself!
As a little servant, you sound so certain.
Did your Madame teach you to say that?
That definitely did not happen!
I am very worried about Madame's whereabouts right now too!
Could she have been abducted?!
Do not make rash guesses. Everyone in the inner palace is suspicious right now.
Of course, I will start my investigation to the closest person to her.
My Lord, are you suspecting me?
You are her personal maid.
Madame disappeared, yet you did not know! You failed at your job!
I know, I will accept my punishment.
But at the moment, should we not find Madame first?
Naturally. But I, want to first inquire
about how much you know.
I...I do not know anything!
Men! Drag all these servants to Yongxiang for interrogation.
My Lord, I am innocent!
-My Lord! -The king will decide if you are innocent or not!
Zhongchang Attendant! We are innocent!
I am innocent! My Lord!
Lao Meng.
Here.
Continue taking people to search everywhere in the palace.
If Madame Li is not found by midday,
immediately send a messenger to inform the king!
Yes, My Lord.
Madame! Madame, something has happened!
What is the emergency?
This morning, I heard something big happened! I ran around to investigate!
It looks like it is true!
What is true?
Last night, Madame Li suddenly disappeared from the palace!
This morning, Zhongchang Attendant locked up a group of servants and is interrogating and torturing them.
There are no clues yet.
This sort of thing happened?
Qing'er and the servants are half dead from torture.
An inner palace concubine disappearing. This has never happened in the Qin palace before.
Li Ji, that bitch. She is being ridiculous!
She dares to do anything because the king favors her!
What does she treat our inner palace as?
Madame! This is our perfect chance!
It is fine if Li Ji does not return. If she returns...
I must use this matter properly.
Yes. Even if the king loves her even more,
the inner palace has Grand Queen Dowager Huayang in charge.
I think that with all the fuss this time, the king cannot let this go easily.
When that happens, it is the perfect chance for you to rise in your position!
Laifu Inn
Waiter!
Coming!
Have you seen a tall person with a Wey accent,
and also carrying a long sword?
Miss, there are thousands of such customers in our Great Wey.
How am I supposed to help you?
How about this? Sit down first and eat some food. Think over it slowly.
Perhaps the customer you want will-
Waiter!
Coming!
Wine!
Brother Gao!
Ge Lan? Why are you here? Long time no see. How is your father?
He is safe and healthy.
But why aren't you in the State of Wey?
I came to meet a friend.
What about you? Did you come with Senior Ge?
I came to look for a friend. The situation is very urgent. But I have no clues about his whereabouts at all.
I heard Sir Tianguang say that you once sparred with Brother Jing!
Do you have news on him?
You are talking about...Jing Ke?
We really have fate!
Brother Jing! I finally found you!
Lan'er?
Why have you come here?
Brother Han told me to find you!
E-eldest Senior Brother?
Where did you see him?
Brother Han sent a letter that in a few days, he will bring Big Sister Li to come see you!
-Junior Sister, you are awake? -Senior Brother.
The horses are fed. We can get going.
Senior Brother.
You did not tell anyone what I told you, right?
You are talking about not mentioning that you gave birth to Tianming, right?
Do not worry, I did not mention it.
Thank you, Eldest Senior Brother.
You probably want to personally tell Junior Brother about this, right?
This way, it is very good.
It's just, he still does not know about Tianming's existence yet.
I want them to meet face to face and then personally tell him this truth.
But right now, I am afraid that Tianming he...
You are afraid Junior Brother cannot accept this truth?
If it were me, how could I not accept the child I had with the woman I love?
I am not worried about that.
Then what are you worried about?
Forget it. We will talk when we see him.
Because I am currently not in the palace so I am just worried about the safety of Tianming.
The king did secretly leave the palace. Not many people know about it.
Do not worry. Tianming will be fine.
Let us go.
-Open the door! -Stop hitting her!
Qing'er is innocent!
Spare her!
Please spare me!
Enough, enough.
Say, you little girl, you really are not letting people stop worrying.
You have already been beaten so much.
You still do not want to tell me how you helped Madame Li leave?
My Lord! I am innocent!
I really do not know anything!
Look at you. This face is so pretty.
If you lost your eyes or nose, it would be a shame!
My Lord, spare me!
Since you do not want to talk, then what about this?
We will cut off one ear first.
-My Lord, spare me! -Men, begin!
Yes!
My Lord!
My Lord! I will talk! I will tell you everything!
Wait!
Alright. Speak.
I will listen carefully.
That day...that day at night,
Madame told me...not to help her change clothes anymore.
I also...upon coming from the royal kitchen...
only then did I know that Madame is missing.
I really do not know anything, My Lord!
I am innocent, My Lord!
Brother Jing
Brother Jing. Quickly go in.
Quickly. Come in.
They have not arrived yet.
Are we early?
Then we will wait.
Junior Sister. Let us go.

I let you keep that bastard child.
He is not a bastard. He is my and Senior Brother’s.
If you want to keep him,
you must let everyone know that he is my child.
Do you understand?
I want you to know ♫ Recalling the past, they are like facades. ♫

Come over here! Hurry up!
Miss, what is wrong?
Brother Jing...and Big Sister Li are finally together.
This is great.
We had helped bring about two people fated to be married. Repaired a broken mirror.
This is a happy thing. Why are you crying?
I...these are happy tears!
Crying because of too much happiness.
Is that so?
It looks like we are the same.
The same? What does that mean?
Our mood is a little complicated.
We feel happy about their reunion. But at the same time,
it is because of their reunion that we feel melancholy again.
Is that right?
Miss, you love Jing Ke, right?
A couple in distress. People who have the same illness are connected with each other.
But...if Big Sister Li can be happy with Brother Jing,
even if Brother Jing never understands my heart,
that is okay!
Because Big Sister Li is truly a very good person!
I hope that they can be together and happy forever!
I completely understand.
Looks like we do not only have the same illness, the situation of our illness are both grave too.
Senior Brother!
You have lost so much weight!
Without you by my side,
I cannot even believe that I am still alive.
Let me take a good look at you.
Junior Sister, why are your eyes so sad?
Tell me. How did he treat you?
He did not treat me poorly.
How did you live for this past year?
Did you know? When I found out you entered the Qin palace,
I tried to go save you.
But a few steps into the palace, I was already arrested.
You went into the Qin palace?
I just knew that person was you.
Did they do anything to you? The Qin law has always been strict. Everyone knows that.
If captured, they will use extreme torture. How could you be so foolish?
I was almost exiled.
Thankfully, Sir Tianguang came to save me.
He is my savior.
Junior Sister, this is all in the past.
No matter how much torture I suffered,
as long as you are by my side now, this is all worth it.
From now on, I will not let you take half a step away from me.
I will use my life to protect you!
Even if they chase us to the ends of the earth,
I will not let them take you away!
We will share the same fur coat while alive and die in the same cave.
With my understanding of you, wherever your fame is, that is where you will benefit.
You are used to fawn upon rich and powerful persons. How is it possible that you will willingly return to my great Qin?
Enough! Stop wasting your words.
I already know what type of person you are.
I have made up my mind. Because you worked hard in the past,
I can let you live. But,
from now on, you will be exiled.
I will never see you again.
Lord Marquis.
Lord Marquis?
Lord Marquis.
Sikong. You have been with me for so many years.
Tell me. Is my life a success or a failure?
Lord Marquis, you are rich and powerful.
You used to be a Chancellor and you have 3,000 retainers. Luoyang and Shiyi has 100,000 households.
You are famous all over the world. And there is the Lü version of the 'spring and autumn annals' that will surely will be passed down for generations.
Among the six states, whether those that are poor or rich, who else has attained a valiant record that
can compare to yours?
Valiant record?
What use is my money and power?
The son I worked hard to cultivate will not accept that I am his father!
He treats me like some poisonous snake or worm.
Tell me. What does my life count as?
Lord Marquis...
Forget it, forget it.
The king did not misunderstand you, did he?
It is nothing.
You can leave. I want to be alone.
Alright. Call me if you need anything.
My Lord, I have something to report.
Go ahead.
These great warriors work for me now.
You can speak.
Yes. The matter in Luoyang has been completed.
The king did personally go to the marquis's manor. There is news
that the king is going to exile the Marquis of Wenxin.
Lü Buwei, you are finished!
Men!!!
The Lord Marquis has committed suicide!
Young Sir, there is something I do not understand.
Tell me.
How does Lord plan to handle the matter of Marquis of Wenxin?
Did I not say that this name cannot be mentioned again?
Yes. I am just worried that if this matter is not dealt with properly, there will be consequences.
There is no need to worry. I have already dealt with it properly.
Your Majesty is wise.
Greetings, Young Sir.
-Speak. -The Marquis of Wenxin has committed suicide.
What?! The Marquis of Wenxin is dead?
Yes. News came this morning that Lord Lü committed suicide.
Right now, the whole marquis manor is in a miserable atmosphere. They even hanged the guiding banner already.
Your Majesty!
Alright, Lü Buwei.
Even you have a day like this.
Your Majesty, are you alright?
I am doing very well.
I have never been this happy before.
Prince and Madam have been separated for a long time. This is really merry events happening in succession.
Zheng'er has grown up a lot. I almost cannot recognize him.
In this world, only I,
only your uncle, will never forsake you.
You still do not understand? You are my son!
No matter how much I give importance to self interest and how much crafty I am, I will not betray Qin that easily.
Now, if I have any hopes left,
I hope that you can rule the world,
and become emperor! Do you not understand?
Your Majesty, Zhongchang Attendant has urgent matter to report.
-Speak! -Madame Li has disappeared for two days.
the entire palace has been searched, but nothing has been found.
Hope Your Majesty can give us instructions.

Let me out!
Queen Dowager, you cannot be like this!
Go away! Go away!
-Queen Dowager! -Let me out!
-Queen Dowager! -Go away!
Go away! Let me out of here!
The king has ordered that you cannot leave here without permission.
You bastards! You dare to treat me like this?
Let me out! I want to go see him!
Buwei!
How could you bear to leave me all alone?
How am I supposed to live?!
How do I live, Buwei?!
Buwei!!
You are back?
I am so tired! I haven't smelled this air in a long time!
Fragrance that belongs to the wilderness, to the soil.
I feel like I have left here for a long time!
Yes. After staying in the palace for too long, you almost forgot you are from the jianghu realm.
Eldest Senior Brother, after disappearing for so long, can you still use your sword?
Stop teasing me. What martial arts masters can you meet in the palace?
My sword has gone blunt.
How about this? It is rare that we can be together.
How about Brother Jing and Sister Li exchange some stances for us to see?
Sister Lan'er, are you not deliberately making me embarrass myself in front of everyone?
What chance would I have had to use a sword in this past year? I have gotten rusty.
Do not worry, Junior Sister. Let us use the swordplay we made up.
If you forgot, I will remind you.
Brother Jing, you are so strong now. You must spare Big Sister Li.
How about you cover your eyes?
How could that do? Then I would be bullying him.
How about this? I will cover my eyes too.
Okay! How about you use this silk scarf?
When I saw this silk scarf,
I thought of many things from the past.
Then Brother Jing can use my silk scarf to cover his eyes!
Ying Zheng has been manipulated by Queen Dowager Zhao and Lü Buwei since childhood.
Grand Queen Dowager Huayang also has many plots.
Ying Zheng never had someone that could treat him sincerely.
He also does not have anyone he can truly trust.
It looks like
in one year by his side, you have gotten to know him very well.
I do not believe
that Madame Li is a mother that would throw away her child.
He endured humiliation here in the Palace just for this heavy responsibility. Not leaving day and night even for a moment.
It was all for Tianming.
She could not leave just like that.
I gave birth to Ying Zheng's child.
Ying Zheng...
To you, Ying Zheng did...
I am going to kill him! I will kill him!
You cannot kill him! He is my child's father. My child cannot lose his father.
You are Ying Zheng's woman now, right? You are going to think for him in everything, right?
No wonder you always speak for him and always protect him!
Have you forgotten our deep grudge and hatred against them and the hope of Master that we save the citizens of the world?!
I did not forget! I never forgot Grandfather's wish!
I am just not filial.
I can never fulfill Grandfather's wish.
Get lost. Get lost!!
Brother Jing!
