[Episode 4]
Once you have finished drinking the fish soup, go back to the room with me.
You are very kind and understanding.
It's better not to mention the new sleepwear.
What are you doing here?
Why did you also buy a rabbit?
It's even a female rabbit.
Give her to me. Don't you know how to knock first?
It's none of your business what I want to rear.
I know you did this on purpose.
You deliberately bought a female rabbit to seduce my rabbit to have sexual intercourse and cause him to run about and bite.
You will then jump out and pretend to be a good person and offer sympathies.
Are you crazy?
Why are you rearing a rabbit in the study then?
Aren't you a Virgo who likes cleanliness?
I...
Why should I explain to you what I do?
You stupid donkey. You are so cynical.
What are you doing here in the middle of the night?
I...
You even brought this soup.
Are you trying to persuade me to sleep with you?
I... I'm here to expose you. I'm not letting you drink this.
Don't think you can ever get on my good side.
You call me a stupid donkey? You are the stupid girl.
Your Excellency, please stay.
- Your Excellency. - Tell Ding Qi that I'm very angry!
Your Excellency, actually, our master went out very early in the morning.
Who knew he would have diarrhea along the way?
He will be here soon. Please don't be angry.
I've waited a long time for him.
Even if he had diarrhea ten times, he should still already be here. I'm not waiting anymore!
Your Excellency, please stay.
Your Excellency. Look, he is here.
Ding Qi, come down here right now!
Didn't I look good?
There is some problem with the kite.
Tie Ying, when you bought the materials, did you pocket some of my money?
Master, Minister Ye is here.
Minister Ye, you are here, too.
Let's go in for a meal. It's my treat.
Master, is your stomach better?
What the heck has my stomach to do with you?
Didn't you keep having diarrhea today?
Enough. Do you think I'm an idiot?
Looks like he is not an idiot.
- You, idiot. - Yes, yes.
Ding Qi, are you not interested in your official post?
I originally wanted to get the precious pearl for you and become an official.
That's extorting.
I don't think it's a good bargain either.
Why don't we just forget about it?
Ding Qi, stop talking nonsense!
When did I make this deal with you? You are playing with me.
Your Excellency, I wouldn't dare to do that.
Why don't you give this post to Bai Chongye?
He wants to be a top scholar. If you give him any position, he'll be happy.
Ding Qi, don't think that just because you gave me a tip,
I can't do anything to you.
Regardless of how big Xinyi Court is, if I want to deal with you guys, it'll be a piece of cake.
Yes, yes, you're right.
But without Xinyi Court, Black Wind Fortress would be the only seller in the market.
Would you be able to sleep and eat well then?
Why don't I take you up there to fly for a while?
Let me tell you if you spend some time on that big kite,
you'll feel satisfied, like a deity.
Even if the Emperor wanted to fly on it, I wouldn't let him.
What audacity! Get lost right now!
That's not up to you!
- Let's go! - D-Ding Qi...
How dare you!
There!
Minister, stop shaking! If you tremble so, both of us will fall.
Take a deep breath and relax. Enjoy the view.
Ding Qi, I won't spare you when we get back down later!
I helped you snatch the pearl and got rid of the spy, what's wrong with playing with me for a while?
Spy? What spy?
Guo Bing!
- Guo Bing? - Yes.
The guy I arranged to be by your side a few years ago.
I wouldn't have thought that he'd betray me.
But since he has such a huge appetite, it's good to get rid of him.
You actually arranged a spy to spy on me? That's an additional crime!
What's the big deal?! Bai Chongye also has a spy placed by your side.
What! Who?!
You don't know?
You owe me another favor!
Really, who is it?!
I think we're in trouble. It's not following my command anymore.
Don't! Hurry and think of a way! I don't want to fall and die!
I have an idea.
What idea?
Just find something to buffer your fall.
- Buffer? - Let's go!
You bastard! I'm the local official for Nan'an City!
Your Excellency!
Where are you, Your Excellency?
Help me.
The few of you, go over there. Quick.
- Okay. - Catch them.
- Your Excellency! - I'm here.
Hurry up.
Be careful.
Hurry.
Take it slow. Be careful.
- Did you fart? - I didn't.
Your Excellency.
Slowly.
Are you all right?
Who was the one below the tree earlier that refused to catch me?
It's him! It's him!
It's painful! It's all your fault!
Where is my document?
What kind of official is a Jiaofang Officer? (T/N: Jiaofang- Court bureau for all entertainment)
It seems to be someone in charge of prostitutes.
Damn it!
That Ye man actually insulted me?
Master, I think, at the very least, he'll be lying on his bed for at least 10 to 15 days.
That's right, too.
Oh, right. Quickly give me those ten taels of silver that you lost.
Although Ye Binghuai is as fat as a pig,
he still was able to fly well.
I want some wi-fi. I want to watch my TV series.
I want to spray insecticides!
There is a bazaar today in the city. There will be good food and fun activities.
Do you want to go take a look?
Wasn't I kidnapped by your people?
Do I still have the freedom to go down the mountain?
I can take you through the shortcut pass at the back of the mountain.
Little Manager Shen, you're so cute!
♫ On my way home, I couldn't contain my feelings. I...
Little Manager Shen?
Hi. Hi.
Little Manager Shen! Little—
What are you doing? Is there gold on the ground?
Help pull me up.
You're too much!
What is this?
Give that back. What are you doing here?
Waiting for you.
Waiting for me? Why?
Aren't you going to the bazaar?
You're asking me out?
What? You think a lady, who just got married,
sneaking out behind her husband's back is a good thing?
Stupid Donkey Xia, let's see if I can correctly guess your thoughts again.
You wanted to ask me out, but you were too shy to do it.
So you deliberately used Little Manager Shen as a bridge, am I right?
I was afraid that you'd lose your mind from getting locked up for so long and then blame it all on me.
A liar must swallow a thousand needles.
You're not going? I'm leaving then.
You did that deliberately!
Wait for me!
You're a rich daughter raised in the deep confines of your home. You probably haven't come to lively bazaars like this very much.
It's just a provincial town fair.
Haven't you been to Huaihai Road?
Ladies usually love things like that. If you want one, I can buy you one.
Does that look pretty to you?
Doesn't know how to appreciate a person's good intentions.
Just because your legs are long, don't walk so fast!
Good! Good!
Excuse me. Let me pass.
Good! Good!
What's going on? What are they competing for? What are the scores now?
Martial arts!
So it's you!
Are you blind?
It's just been only a few days. After going up the mountain
with your bandit husband, you've forgotten me?
Father said that starting from now, I'm the only missy in the entire Ye Family.
Ye Jinrong!
Ye Jinxuan and Ye Jinrong.
You play Cinderella's step-sister, the mean role, right?
Good! good!
That tiara is just so pretty!
You don't have a fate with pretty things!
Since young, all the good things belong to me.
That now also includes Wei Liujiang.
Let's compete!
He's now my husband!
Where is your bandit husband?
Is he not here with you?
Good! Good!
Just where are you going?
- I don't want to watch! Let go. - Stand right here
Leave it now!
Good Good!
The winner of the match is...
Stupid Donkey!
You're so cool! Cool! Cool!
Boss, may I display my humble skills?
But-But the competition has ended!
Yes.
But the boss has not hit the gong yet!
Exactly! Exactly!
I have an offer.
I will not retaliate for the first ten strokes.
If you can hit me, you will be considered as the winner.
Wife, do you really want this tiara?
Yes, it's only ten strokes.
You can certainly defeat him. I trust in you!
Okay then, I'll accept the challenge.
Go ahead.
1! 2! 3! 4! 5!
Be careful! You can do it!
7! 8! 9!
10!
Husband!
Sorry, but I won.
You're excellent!
Young Sir, you have good martial arts skills.
But... this is the Ice Man Shop. Each challenger must have a female partner.
However, you came alone. This...
- Me! - Me! I'm his female partner!
- Choose me! - Choose me! Don't push!
Good! Good!
This is my partner.
Good! Good!
Ye Jinxuan?!
That's me! So what?
Sir, my wife loves this item a lot.
I'm willing to pay a high price.
I'm unable to decide that.
I can help you ask the person who can make that decision.
Do you still need to ask?
It is indeed beautiful, but it's not fated to be yours.
You...
Wife.
Since my wife refuses to give it away...
Boss, how much is it?
1,000 taels.
Young Sir, you've misunderstood. What I was referring to is gold.
Young Sir, 1,000 taels of gold isn't something that anyone can casually afford.
You shouldn't push yourself too much.
What if I pay with this item?
This is a top grade white tallow jade.
Is it worth a thousand in gold?
Not just a thousand in gold, it's even hard to get one with tens of thousands of gold.
I actually don't want it anymore.
Be quiet!
Are you stupid? That's 10,000 taels!
As long as you like it, not just 10,000 taels of gold,
even 100,000 taels of gold, I'll give it to you.
Also, can I return to our room to sleep tonight?
I must think about it.
♫ Regarding you, I don't want to walk too far away ♫
♫ The aroma scatters lightly ♫
♫ Flowing over between us, pouring out quiet considerations ♫
♫ Thoughts that couldn't be hidden ♫
♫ All have precipitated ♫
It was initially just to play an act in front of Bai Chongye.
But for some reason, I want to savor this moment.
It's true that I agreed to let you come back here,
but we need to set some rules.
First, no one must go beyond the dividing line.
Second, the wardrobe is mine.
Third... This is the most important rule.
We still can't "do that."
Don't worry.
If Eldest Brother wasn't so suspicious, I wouldn't have to share the same bed with you.
Besides, I'm not interested in you at all.
I will never cross your boundary.
What do you mean by that?
You gave me three conditions. I will only give you one.
When you are sleeping, please don't grind your teeth or snore. It's very noisy.
Me, grind my teeth and snore? It's obvious, it's you. Okay?
Don't dare sleep. Get up and make yourself clear.
You said you'd give 100,000 taels of gold to me if I wanted.
Is that true?
Pretending to be dead, huh?
Okay then. I'm going to exchange this tiara for silver tomorrow.
Stupid Donkey.
Stupid Donkey, wake up. Something bad happened.
- Something bad happened. Wake up. - So annoying.
Look at this tiara. The pearl came out.
Eldest Brother lost a pearl the other day. Seeing how unhappy he was,
I gave that pearl to him.
Go to sleep now.
Stupid Donkey!
This move by Third Brother indeed removed the clogged grass and everything became so suddenly clear.
Eldest Brother, you are overpraising me.
I heard your bride finally let you sleep in her room.
Eldest Brother, you are laughing at me.
Eldest Brother!
Make a judgment on this.
Fourth Brother hit me first.
You committed a despicable act. I was teaching you a lesson.
You can talk first.
At the dock on Wu River, I gave 100 jin (50 kilos) of salt to Fifth.
But now, only 80 jin (40 kilos) of salt was unloaded at the Annan dock.
He Zhongbao must have done something in between and stole the salt!
Eldest Brother, don't listen to his nonsense. He is very treacherous. He did give me ten bags of salt,
but each bag contained only 8 jin instead of 10 jin. Ultimately, it was only 80 jin.
- I distinctly gave you 10 jin in each. - You are spouting nonsense.
- You... - Enough.
Third Brother, what do you think?
I think it is very simple. Fifth Brother didn't steal at all.
Third Brother is reasonable.
You didn't even investigate. How can you say that he didn't steal the salt?
Fourth Brother is also not short of salt.
Where did the salt go then?
If my guess is correct,
the salt should still be on the boat.
We already checked the entire deck, planks and all, on the boat. There was no salt there.
Also, that knot tying technique is unique to our Black Wind Fortress.
- No one else can untie it. - That's right.
A person wanting to steal it didn't need to untie the rope.
You only had 100 jin salt. Leasing the whole boat ourselves wouldn't have been cost-effective.
If my guess is right,
someone else's goods were also transported on the boat.
- Yes. - That's right.
There was also jade stones on the boat.
People were also transporting vintage wine from Xishan.
This is correct then.
When salt encounters liquids, it will dissolve. The person who stole the 10 jin of salt must have mixed it with water or something.
That's why the 10 jin of salt became 8 jin and the thief left no clues behind.
Once he got back to the pier, he'd dry out the saltwater. That's how he stole it.
So, I advise you go back now and check the Xishan vintage wine casks.
I think they won't contain wine but salt instead.
Xia Chunyu, you are really something.
You are being disrespectful. Aren't you going to address him as Third Brother?
Thank you, Third Brother.
- You are so quick with the flattery. - You!
Aren't you going to intercept the Xishan vintage wine now?
Yes. Thank you, Third Brother, for your pointers.
Let's go.
Who is so brave as to challenge Black Wind Fortress
and tease Fourth and Fifth Brother?
Your Bai Chongye has been behaving suspiciously the whole day.
If he finds out that we met, you won't have any peace.
Of course, I will tell Eldest Brother
that I met with Master Ding of Xinyi Court to discuss our 20 jin of missing salt.
You are really too smart.
Of course, the Xishan Vintage Winery wouldn't dare to steal the Black Wind Fortress's salt.
But the power of your Xinyi Court in water transport and cargo docks is something that our Black Wind Fortress cannot compete with.
Fortunately, you only stole 20 jin of our salt.
Master Ding, if you weren't interested,
even if the brains of Fourth and Fifth Brothers were both stolen, it would be no surprise.
I love listening to you.
Frankly, that 20 jin of salt is no big deal.
As for your Fourth and Fifth Brothers fighting amongst themselves,
it's really fun. I also wanted to frustrate Bai Chongye.
But... you are very smart.
I like smart people the most.
Let me tell you a secret.
This is not the first time I've stolen your salt.
Why didn't Bai Chongye come after me?
He trades in salt privately.
Black Wind Fortress has a salt permit.
Since time immemorial, with a salt permit as a cover, who wouldn't smuggle out some government salt?
Bai Chongye didn't tell you?
Seems like he really doesn't regard you as his good friend then.
Wait!
What other advice do you have?
I wanted to give you an opportunity.
It's a pity to see you working for that phony Bai Chongye.
I will let you choose over again.
Black Wind Fortress or Xinyi Court?
Thank you for your kind offer,
but since I have already joined Black Wind Fortress,
I will have to apologize for rejecting you.
Don't be in such a hurry to decide.
I think I should ask my "wife."
Make a guess. Head or tails?
Whether it's head or tails, I won't change my mind.
I don't freeload off others, either.
Thank you.
Xia Chunyu! I insist on treating you.
I will never accept your money!
So be it.
Your Excellency, this Minister Qiu has no past interactions with us.
Why then do we care about the coming of age ceremony of
his cousin's uncle's niece?
You don't know anything!
Darn you, old fogey.
Still trying to hide from me?
You...
- Are you trying to betray me? - Enough.
Are you giving this to your vixen behind my back?
Seriously, you! I treat you so well.
Stop it!
Watch how you act! There's an outsider here.
I did not see a thing.
- Chen Yang. - Yes, Your Excellency.
This must arrive in two days.
You are being very brave now.
Come here, come. Wife, don't be angry.
All right then.
This is an important task. You must acquire additional men to protect this along the way.
Don't let this leak out and let Bai Chongye know.
Yes, Your Excellency.
Husband, why did you ask me to act along with you just now?
Think about it. Black Wind Fortress took away our daughter
and almost caused me to lose my position.
If I don't take revenge, will I still be the local official of Nan'an city?
You owe me a birthday present. It's fine if you didn't prepare one.
I have already thought of one on your behalf.
My spy inside Ye Manor sent this information.
Ye Binghuai plans to use my pearl to kiss up to his superiors. He plans to give it to Minister Qiu.
Tomorrow, his people will be resting at Yongcui Pavilion.
That would be our best opportunity to take back the pearl.
How about you make that my birthday gift?
Eldest Brother, you always plan everything so well.
The only drawback is, this time we will be in direct conflict with the government, so there is some risk.
If you are worried about doing this, I will just make the pearl your gift to Ye Binghuai.
If you needed me to, I would climb a mountain of blades or swim in a sea of flames.
But it's a pity that I won't be able to join in your birthday celebration.
I hid a jar of five-year-old wine, called Chrysanthemum Appointment.
I had planned to drink it here together with you.
Chrysanthemum Appointment?
Is that the name of the wine?
The name is a bit odd.
But Eldest Brother, once you drink it, you will know why.
I can hardly wait.
Why are you here again?
I am different from Sheng Sheng.
An honest person doesn't tell lies.
The new Third Brother is so handsome.
And you stole him from me!
I am going to make all your days miserable!
I advise you to live life cautiously from now on.
Don't let me see you and be bothered!
I don't want to make you upset.
This is really pretty.
You like it? Then you can keep it.
I really need to teach you a lesson.
When did you learn to be so obedient?
Of course, I am.
Just now, younger sister, you told me to live life cautiously.
I've only just arrived here. Of course, the best things should be yours.
[Yongcui Pavilion Map]
Ye Binghuai picked a very good place.
That is right. It's a fortunate thing we were assigned a valuable number of very good fighters.
What kind of men are they?
It is hard to say. But every one of them has killed before.
Then even if we die, at least we weren't cheated.
Third Master, don't say that it is bad luck.
I am just telling you the way it is.
Ye Binghuai will still have a lot of soldiers standing guard. We'll only have these fighters.
Also, we don't even know where the pearl will be hidden.
Time, location, and personnel. We don't have a single advantage!
This time, we'll be lucky to escape with our lives.
Look at you so beautiful.
Wearing that hairpin, walking around the garden,
all the men can't take their eyes off of you.
- Really? - Of course.
Wait, wait. It isn't straight.
Let me straighten it.
Okay.
The most beautiful pair of eyes is already focused on you. I don't care about anyone else's.
That's too much. I am not worthy.
You really think I am complimenting you?!
Third Brother may like you for one moment, but can he actually like you for a lifetime?
You are so right.
Also, I am telling you. Don't let Sheng Sheng, the miser, get anything.
Make sure you keep giving these nice things only to me.
Don't worry. Of course. Of course.
Today, there are a lot of good-looking guys at the stables.
In a moment, I am going to bring them some water.
Wasps! Save me!
Come come. Let me help you.
I am here, working hard to make a living.
From this point on, I will depend on your care.
If there is anything you want, just tell me.
Save me! Wasps!
Sang Sang, what game are you playing? Come out.
Come out!
Are you the flower of Black Wind Fortress?
Why do you have a head full of grass?
Where did those wasps come from? Hurts so much!
Don't you like to attract bees and flies? (T/N: Phrase means "flirting")
Is this new?
There is honey on it.
If the bees didn't follow you, who would they follow?
What?
Ye Jinxuan! You wench!
Ye Jinxuan, I am going to fight you to the death!
Ye Jinxuan, come out here!
These are all antiques.
Also, adding in this tiara.
I hope I can take these back with me when I return.
If I can bring these back, I will be rich!
Open a restaurant?
I can open a whole mall.
Who'd care about an investment from Manager Sheng then?
Don't think about how many days to go. (5 tally marks)
Think about how many days that have passed.
This shouldn't be used to hold brushes.
It should be used to hold my magical weapons.
During the holidays I can use it to predict the future.
What are you doing?!
I am helping you organize things.
How can you touch my things?
I am your wife, what can't I touch?
- What is going on over there? - The effect is not so good.
But... But... let's eat.
Look, I made so many dishes.
Ancient food stuffs are really good.
What are you doing?
Tomorrow, I have something to do. You stay here and reflect on what you did.
This is domestic abuse, you know?
I worked so hard to cook for you and you treat me like this?
You don't need to cook my meals.
Don't lock it! Don't lock the door!
You stupid donkey. I worked so hard...
You are the number one stupid donkey.
Let me out.
Stupid donkey let me out! Open the door! (Map)
He isn't acting out a prison roleplay, right? That is too perverted.
Stupid donkey! Open the door!
So being strong isn't working.
Fine, I will act soft.
I am so pitiful.
I know you are being noisy to protect yourself.
My father abandoned me.
The only one I can depend on is my husband.
But my husband, he...
I don't want, what is going to happen tonight, to bring you harm.
