Are you man or ghost?
lt's really you
My husband...
Please respect yourself, my Lady
My husband...
l thought you were dead
l really thought you were dead
l don't blame you for remarrying since you thought l was dead
But why marry a Jin scoundrel?
Xiruo, l've tried to find you for 18 years
Do you know how hard it was for me these last 18 years?
l'm sorry, l should not have remarried
Xiruo, l don't blame you...
My husband
l've thought of killing myself
But l was pregnant with your child
And he was the one who saved me many times
lf it wasn't for him
l would have died before giving birth to our child
Where is our son?
He is doing well. He's already 18 years old
He's Wanyan Kang?
What are you trying to say?
l...
Stop stuttering and speak your mind
l've decided
Since we are sincere about each other the status does not matter
Nianci, l'm glad you agree
My father wants to see you
l have to keep mother company now
Why don't you come to the palace tonight?
See you at night
My father wants to see you now
l'm not free right now
l never thought l would see you again...
until l die
Xiruo, promise me you'll return to me
And our son...
How will l tell him?
He has been so good to us all these years
Didn't you say you've never loved him?
You've been missing me for 18 years, not him
You don't understand
ls it because of the wealth and glory he can give to you?
Or are you afraid he will harm you if you leave?
No, he's not like that
lf l want to leave, he will respect me
So why are you worrying?
Uncle Yang...
lt's okay. This is Brother Guo's son
Miss Mu couldn't stop Wanyan Kang He's coming in now
lt's alright. Let him in. He is my son
- You're acknowledging him now? - Yes
No, he'll be in shock
Where are you staying?
l'm staying at room he in Fulai lnn
- Then... - Wanyan Kang is here
Leave by the back door
Xiruo, you...
l will bring Kang-er to you in 10 days
- Xiruo - Tiexin
Mother
Kang-er, let's go back
Chunxiang and Priestess have fainted and are tied up outside
- Really? - What happened?
Let's go back. l'll tell you then
Priestess and Chunxiang have been tied up by your father's men
Father is back?
Not the Prince, but your father
What do you mean, mother?
The Prince brought this spear back from Niu Family Village
All the furniture here were taken from Niu Family Village
Mother, where is that?
lt is in Jiangnan, in Song within the Linan boundary
Your father grew up there and we married there
Mother, father is the Sixth Prince of Jin
How could he have grown up in Niu Family Village?
Kang-er
You're a Han
You're not Wanyan Kang Your surname is Yang. You're Yang Kang
- l'll get the lmperial Doctor - Kang-er
l'm very sober
This spear belonged to your father
You are not the Prince's son Your father is Yang Tiexin
- lt can't be - Kang-er, l wouldn't lie to you
Your father is a common citizen of Song
No, my father is the Sixth Prince of Jin Wanyan Honglie
Kang-er
My Lady, the Prince wants to see you
Kang-er
Father, l need to ask you something l hope you can be honest with me
What is it?
Tell me, am l your real son?
Am l a Song, or a Jin?
Kang-er, don't be rude
Mother says my surname is Yang ls it true? Tell me!
Kang-er your mother was only joking with you
Your surname is not Yang
Don't play a trick like that on our son
Your Highness
Guess what l brought back from my trip to Xixia?
Only three guesses
- Your Highness, about this... - Kang-er
l need to speak with your mother Go back and rest first
l want to go out and relax for a few days
Very well, as long as you're happy
l'm off
Kang-er, l still need to talk to you
lt can wait till our son comes back from his vacation
- Kang-er, be careful - l will
Kang...
How can you tell the child these things? He'll be upset
Your Highness
Why did you lie to me that you've found my husband's body?
- Drink up - Uncle Yang, l'll be drunk
Don't worry
Father, don't drink too much The wine will do you no good
Nianci, do you know which is the happiest day of my life?
lt has to be today, of course
So you must all drink with me
Father, Guo Jing has to leave tomorrow You should rest early
Yes, we have to be up early
- Not us, just me - l'm coming along
After l meet my six Teachers at Zuixian lnn l'll be back
You stay here and take care of Uncle Yang and Miss Mu
l won't have to worry if you're here
You shouldn't have lied to me that my husband was dead
l didn't lie to you
General Jin came back and said he saw Yang Tiexin's dead body
How could it not be?
Don't think so much You didn't sleep well all night
- Your eyes are all red. Come on... - Your Highness
l...
He wants me to go back to him
His request is reasonable
lf l were him, l would do the same
Your Highness
When are you leaving?
l promised l would bring Kang-er to him in 10 days
So you're leaving me in 10 days?
Will you not miss this place?
Why don't you say something?
Yes
Okay, come with me
Your Highness
You must repay what you owe to me before you can go and see Tiexin
This is the first time l've hit a woman
Especially, a woman that l love
l hit you because you are an ingrate
My brothers have several wives each while l only have you
l am so stupid
Your Highness
l've told you long ago that l only love my husband
You knew it all along
l know. Even if Yang Tiexin was dead you would still love him
Not to mention he is still alive
ln your eyes l am nothing compared to a corpse
But you know this
l know
For 18 years l have tried to win your love
l thought my perseverance could move you
But, apparently you don't have a heart
l do, and that was why l married you
and let down my husband
You're not to talk about him l am your husband
You keep saying you've done a lot for me
Have you considered the big sacrifice l did for you?
l was meant to stay a widow
For 18 years, l have served you without a single complaint
l owe you nothing
lf you must hear it from me then l was wrong. l'm sorry
Don't go
Do l still owe you?
Take it that l owe you
You are never to leave my place in this lifetime
Why aren't you eating more? Help yourself
lf Guo Jing sees you not eating well he'll be upset
l... l'm full
You're so boring that you've lost your appetite
Tell you what we can take care of ourselves here
You hurry along and go with Jing
Since you've said that don't blame me if anything happens!
My Lady
Even if you won't eat at least have some soup
Go away. Stop bothering me
Yang Tiexin? l know him
Do you remember his wife? Her surname is Bao
l remember They were a loving couple
But they met with misfortune
The most pitiful must be the baby she was pregnant with
l remember the last time l saw her...
Master Zhang
- Going out? - Yes
My shovel is damaged
- Can you repair it for me? - Sure, bring it in anytime
Why don't you have your wife bring it in?
She's not well and is resting
How can you be so happy when your wife is ill?
- No, she is carrying my baby - Really?
Yes, it's been two months
l'll be a father next year during Seventh Sister Birthday
Let me die
- Get the lmperial Doctor - Yes sir
Why torture yourself?
l did this because l love you
Surely you don't want your son
to lose his mother when he has just met his father?
Leave now, leave right away
From now on l will have nothing to do with you
Go on!
Your Highness
Leave an address l'll send Kang-er to you when he returns
Your Highness
Please send for a doctor l don't wish to die here
Your Highness
- How is my Lady? - She is fine
See the doctor out
This is the address
l'm leaving
All the jewellery and silk robes are in the cabinet
Xiruo
Didn't you say l could go? Are you going back on your word?
lt's getting late and you're injured
- How can l not worry? - l'll be fine
Listen to me one last time Rest up tonight and leave tomorrow
He's at room he in Fulai lnn Kill him and be handsomely rewarded
Your Highness we've never seen Yang Tiexin before
Just kill anyone you see in that place
What if he's gone out?
Don't worry. l've told General Jin to seal off the whole street
No one can get away
Then rest assured, Your Highness
l will bring you his head tomorrow morning
Why are you sitting here? Go away
Get lost
What do you want?
- What's happening? - They're catching rebels
The whole street is sealed You'd better go home
You'll get in trouble if you are caught
- Where are you going? - We're drinking tea over there
Get lost We already said you can't get out
Are you tired of living? Get lost
How dare you speak to the Little Prince like this?
l can sentence your whole clan to death
You're Little Prince? Then l'm the Emperor!
Well, Your Highness
Do you need a sedan to get back to your palace?
l'm never going back there
Look, he really believes he is Little Prince
Do you think he looks the part?
Not really. He looks more like a stray dog
Come on, bark a few times for us
- Let us hear a couple of barks - Come on
- Bark - Bark
You Han loser, how dare you hit me Beat him up
Everything is ready. You can set off now
Take this letter
Nobody in Jing or Song will bully you
Kang-er is a naughty boy This will help you greatly
Your Highness
You've been so good to us
l can never repay your kindness
Let me pay you my respects
lt's time to go
Let me see you off so l can look at you longer
- Disperse - Yes sir
- Why is it so noisy outside? - That's right
Xiruo
Hold it
Your Highness
What are you doing?
We are carrying out orders from the Prince Please excuse us
Xiruo
Mother...
Father, how do you feel?
Let's take a rest inside, come
(Water God Temple)
My Lady's illness is from suffering emotional trauma
on top of her poor disposition and persistent old injury
Mother
How can this be? Why has she not awaken?
Her recovery will now depend on Prince's luck
You must save my Lady no matter how
l'll kill all of you if anything happens to her
Mother
lt's getting late, Your Highness Go get some rest
You did this to my mother
Kang, are you crazy?
Yes
Kill me now. l don't wish to live anymore
Kang
Yes
l admit l was the one to kill Yang Tiexin
But why did l do it?
l did it for the sake of the both of you
That man lied to your mother and abandoned her
18 years later, he finds out she's the royal concubine and blackmails her
Do you think he deserves to live?
- ls that true? - Of course
Your mother only loves me
- And l only love her - You're lying
Kang
Do you know
Before my mother fainted she kept calling out for Yang Tiexin
Kang, even if your mother's really smitten with that man
you mustn't doubt your father You are my flesh and blood
l've been to Niu Family Village and found out my true identity
l know very clearly that you are not my real father
My father is Yang Tiexin
Very well
l won't pretend anymore since you already know
What do you plan to do now?
l've given you boundless wealth these 18 years
l gave you everything you've ever wanted
Think about it Has Yang Tiexin ever been a father to you?
Kang, who has been a better father to you?
Think carefully
Xiruo
- Xiruo - Father
lt's me, father
Where's Xiruo?
She said she'd bring Kang-er to me in 10 days
Which day is it today?
Nianci
Where's my wine?
lt's at the inn
Go back to the inn and get it for me
l want to save it for Xiruo
Father
How is it?
Thanks to you, my mother isn't dead
- Come outside, l've to talk to you - What's there to say?
Song Emperor has sent a 9-foot coral tree as a gift
- You should know about this - So what?
ln court today
Father said he wanted to see this tree, but...
What's that got to do with me?
l know your mood is terrible, Kang
But you must look at the bigger picture
Do you still expect me to do things for Jin?
Even if you don't do it for me do it for yourself, Kang
Have you considered the fact that you can do and have anything you want
with everyone wanting to please you
lt's just because you're Little Prince of Jin
What will become of you if you're no longer that?
l am now in power
lf you are still my son my empire will go to you one day
All wealth and riches will be yours
lt is not my fortune
Yes it is You are still my son no matter what
lt's just a matter of how you look at it
Do you consider me your real son?
You're just afraid l'd tell the world about your evil deeds
That will ruin your reputation
l won't fall for your tricks
l know you're not afraid to die l don't intend to kill you
Death is quick. lt's no big deal to die
What's worse is to be tortured slowly strapped to a board
when you can neither live nor die
- Keep a close watch on him - Yes sir
Father, my respects to you
Wishing you health and good fortune
Where's my grandson?
How dare he not come out to welcome father?
Brother, how did you raise him?
Get him out here right now
Kang-er is of ill health Please forgive him, father
Father, please have a seat
Hold on. l want to see my grandson first
Father, he is ill
l will bring him to see you when he is fully recovered
l should see how he is since he is ill
Father
What now?
Kang-er is recuperating elsewhere l sent him to our countryside villa
Sixth Brother, why are you so pale? Are you not well?
You look flustered Are you hiding something from father?
Where is Kang exactly?
l've sent him to the countryside
Dinner is ready. Please have a seat, father
- We're going to the villa now - Father
Your Highness, Little Prince refuses to eat and is smashing up everything
like he's gone crazy
What is happening? Take me to him!
Yes sir
Greeting, Your Highness...
Open the door
How dare you show such disrespect?
Kang, why are you so angry?
Father, Kang-er is an unruly child He wants to marry a geisha
So l had to lock him up here
Even though this behaviour is only natural for hot-blooded young men
what you're doing is going too far
Don't you realise?
You're my grandson who will probably rule the country one day
How can you marry a girl of such low status?
Well, Your Highness
Do you need a sedan to get back to your palace?
l'm never going back there
Look, he really believes he is Little Prince
Do you think he looks the part?
- He looks more like a stray dog - Bark for us
- Bark - Come on...
Sixth Brother, how did you raise this child?
He is ignoring father and doesn't get down on his knees
Kang, what's wrong?
Little Prince? Why don't you ask Hades to adopt you as his god-son?
Greetings to you, Your Highness
That'll do. Get up
l was so worried about you. Are you alright?
Your Highness, l'm fine
Except that l know l've done wrong and feel bad about it
Don't be upset. lt's alright
Come and have a few drinks with me l have much to tell you
