♫ I start to dance nimbly and gracefully ♫
♫ For what my beautiful face is frowned? ♫
♫ Without him, I'll drift with the current ♫
♫ Why is the tune of the zither a farewell song? ♫
♫ Without me, he'll be lonely in this universe ♫
♫ My heart silently waits at the cliff of Firmament ♫
♫ The heaven, the earth, the sun and the moon are all in my bosom ♫
♫ How can I own the top freedom in this world? ♫
♫ There is no fear from my heart ♫
♫ Deep love won't hide ♫ ♫ True love won't run short ♫
♫ Dreams give hopes through all the ages ♫
♫ Why go through storms and stress to be bright and beautiful? ♫
♫ There is no struggle from my heart ♫
♫ Swaying along with the wind ♫
♫ I can do anything freely ♫
♫ I enter my dreams easily and unrestrainedly ♫
♫ What a beautiful dance ♫
[Legend of Fuyao]
Episode 24
Your Majesty, I'm sure she poisoned the wine.
I'm sure it's her.
Sister, you must be mistaken. Why would I do it?
Just awhile ago, I've interrogated the court maids who are serving today.
A'Xiu said that before I presented my dance,
her personal maid went to search for some sort of earrings and bribed her with gold leaves.
It must be when she didn't pay attention, she put poison into the wine.
Your Majesty, I am innocent.
I really don't know anything.
Huan'er, tell them what Lady Virtuous has said is true or not.
Tell His Majesty everything you saw today.
Your Majesty.
My Miss really did lose her earrings.
It was also true that I asked Sister A 'Xiu to go look for earrings with me.
But, Your Majesty, I didn't poison the wine.
But,
but... Continue.
Your Majesty,
while Sister A' Xiu and I were looking for the earrings outside,
we happened to see Lady Fair rush over and
saw her put something into the wine.
Are you saying I did it?
Do you understand
it's punishable by death to slander a consort?
I don't dare.
Don't say anymore.
Your Majesty, this is all my fault.
Your Majesty, just punish me alone then.
Miss, you didn't do anything wrong. I saw with my own eyes.
Yes, Lady Fair probably still has wine on her clothes.
I don't dare lie.
Heaven will punish me if I lied.
Your Majesty!
Your Majesty.
Just now,
I did spill the wine bottle and touched it.
There are some wine stain on my dress.
But this kind of despicable thing to drug someone,
I would never do it.
Your Majesty, it must be the two of them together.
Lady Virtuous is so interesting.
If it's the two of them working together, then you can be the queen.
You... that's nonsense.
I think, if Lady Fair and Lady Precious are under suspicion,
you Lady Virtuous are not above suspicion, either.
Why would I drug myself?
I already mentioned the reason just now.
Your Majesty, she is saying nonsense.
What Lady Virtue says makes sense.
Therefore,
this case has no solution.
Let's discuss it another day.
No!
Your Majesty,
if you want to find the truth, I have a method.
We can use the Lustrous Mirror.
The Lustrous Mirror?
Your Majesty, the Lustrous Mirror can reflect anyone's past.
It can reflect 12 different times over 12 different years.
Or it can show the last 12 hours or even 12 minutes.
It just depends on what object is used for a time reference.
The book did not specify the procedures needed
if we were to look back events from 2 hours ago
using the Lustrous Mirror.
Cicadas.
Your Majesty, cicadas.
I researched a lot before using the Lustrous Mirrors.
Cicadas only have a life span of 12 hours.
Put them in front of the Lustrous Mirrors.
The happenings of the past 12 hours will be shown.
But, even so...
where would we find cicadas now?
This is the first time I've heard of them.
Your Majesty, I have some.
Your Majesty, I have cicadas.
Official Chen.
This... what a coincidence.
Your Majesty, I enjoy keeping insects.
The sound of the cicadas really are so moving
so everyday, I have the servants go deep into the forest
to catch them. I carry them around with me everyday.
I hereby request Your Majesty, without delay, to use these cicadas to reveal and capture the culprit!
Hurry then.
Your Majesty, I am willing to try it first to prove my innocence.
Go.
Your Majesty, Ru'er of course didn't poison herself,
the Lustrous Mirror very clearly has just shown us her innocence.
Marquis, you're overthinking it, I've already said before
Lady Virtuous will not do such a thing.
I have already tried it, does Lady Precious
or Lady Fair want to be next?
Your Majesty, I think rather than have Lady Precious try it,
it is most suitable to have her servant, Huan' er, try it next.
Your Majesty, this--
wouldn't it make more sense for Lady Fair to do it next if we were to go by ranks.
It's not too late to have Huan' er go after Lady Fair has proven her innocence.
This facial appearance altering technique, although it has the power to confuse one's wisdom such they no longer recognize you,
you must guard against mirrors at all costs because a mirror's reflection
would, without exception, always reveal one's true appearance.
Oh...am I sensing hesitancy on Lady Fair's part?
Oh!
Yuan Bao!
Yuan Bao! Someone, someone catch it!
Hurry up!
Here! Here!
- The Lustrous Mirror, not my Lustrous Mirror! - Don't...don't...don't trample on him! - Your Majesty,
please keep calm.
Yuan Ban! Someone come here! - Your Majesty, please keep calm...
What do you mean keep calm?
Outrageous!
Don’t do this! Here!
Lustrous Mirror! My Lustrous Mirror!
Hurry up!
How could this happen?
- Arrest her! - Yes.
Your Majesty, why are you arresting me?
If you didn't disturb my beloved pet, would the Lustrous Mirror have broke?
Even if today's poisoning wasn't your doing,
you still can't rid yourself from the blame of breaking the palace’s treasure.
Guards! Arrest Yuwen Zi! Imprison her to Dense Beam Palace Hall!
No one shall be allowed to release her without my permission.
Your Highness, I am innocent!
Take her away.
I won't let you do it.
- Your Majesty, today's task of choosing the Queen... - Choosing the Queen?!
Such a thing happened today, and you're still asking me to choose the Queen?!
Then tell me, who should I choose to be the Queen?
Your Majesty, please think wisely.
Choosing the Queen of Deep Water Nation is a serious matter, and we shouldn't rush to a decision.
Not long after tomorrow, Your Majesty will be paying homage to the royal ancestors, and also could use the time to weigh out his options
after returning from paying homage to the ancestors, it will not be too late to make the decision then.
Prime Minister has spoken reasonably. All dismissed!
Safe journey, Your Majesty.
Do you know your sin of not listening to orders and making move without permission?
Please punish me, Mister.
Originally, I actually wanted to severely punish you.
But once I saw Fuyao, my anger couldn't rise anymore.
You owe me a punishment.
Let me tell you, paying respects to the ancestors in Changyuan will need three days.
Help me take care of her in these upcoming days.
You will be blamed if something happens to her again.
So, do you mean that you punished her to stay in Dense Beam Palace Hall in order to protect her?
It’s also to make Qi Zhen to send her to me as early as possible.
You don’t even care about your life because of a slut?
You admired her so much, but
she’s already lying in the king’s palace.
She’s already Deep Water Nation’s king’s women.
You wanted to get rid of me?
Don’t force me.
It’s not even hot today.
Why are you sweating so much?
Don’t be crazy.
Crazy? You’re the one who’s crazy.
It’s always you. It’s Yan Jingchen.
Why did you do to me?
What can I do about you?
I just wanted to help you to wipe your sweat.
Oh, and coincidentally, this handkerchief has been dipped in Confusion Powder Herb
You've always been guarding against me?
The one I’m guarding against is that slut.
You—
How could it be possible that I would harm you?
I know you dislike Pei Yuan, this girl, especially after her face was ruined.
She used to be just petulant/ill-tempered, now she is filled with venomous hatred and malicious intents,
to marry this sort of a woman, I know you're being put in a hard spot
But, you have to be patient and endure it, endure it until the right time.
Any relationship between people, is actually just for the purpose of mutual benefits.
You married her because of her mother’s family’s background.
Once your position is stable in the capital,
looking at Pei Yuan’s personality, she will only mess things up for you in the future.
By then, this pack of Spirit Breaker Powder will be useful.
- Father, you want me to—? - You just need to remember one thing,
be very cautious in your actions.
Once you use this item, you must find a scapegoat.
If people don’t suspect it is you, her death will bring you everyone’s
sympathy. And this sympathy
will provide you more opportunities.
How could I harm you?
I really didn’t put the drugs in. You don’t have to hold me like this. I can walk on my own.
It hurts. It hurts. It hurts. Don’t pull me.
Slow down please.
The king has a message for Lady Fair. Please leave us.
You scared me.
Miss, you understand Mister’s heart, right?
If your Mister released the stupid rat a second later, I would be in a big trouble.
Help me to thank your Mister.
My Lady, your wit/intelligence really surpasses everyones'.
Oh right. Mister have to go and pray in Forever Water for these few days.
So, he will not be in the palace. You may have to suffer for a few days.
But, why is it Dense Beam Palace Hall?
Mister said, if you carry this purse,
Dense Beam Palace Hall will be the safest place in the palace.
[Dense Beam Palace Hall]
Lady Fair, Dense Beam Palace Hall is a part of the Cold Palace (where concubines who have fallen out of favor with the emperor are relegated to. )
If you step any further, I'm afraid it'd be against the established norms. You--why don't you just go in by yourself.

Pei Yuan!
What are you doing?
Release me now.
What's the rush?
A’Lie, bring the thing here.
Spirit Breaker Powder, does this sound familiar to you?
This was given to you by the Clique Leader
so you can poison me when you have the chance.
You knew.
But I never used it on you.
Which was why you are able to live this long.
I originally thought the reason you didn't use this was
because you still had me in your heart.
I guess I was wrong.
If this lowly slave maidservant doesn’t die,
you will never love me only.
I don't know what nonsense you are talking about.
Look who I have here.
Fuyao, Fuyao!
What did you do to her?
Her screams almost broke my heart.
What’s the matter?
The doctor in this manor, Sir Zong, said that I got an epidemic disease
from the Hunting Field. It will be passed if we make contact. I’m afraid that Prime Minister...
Plus, I’m ugly. There’s a birthmark on my face. I afraid that I may shock you.
How can a person has two faces?
It’s not even the usual Face Changing Technique.
That face looks familiar.
Or did I see wrongly?
Butler Wei.
Here.
Old Master.
Is there anyone left in Changning Yuwen’s Manor?
Older Master, after Yuwen Zi entered the palace, we had followed your instructions
to kill everyone in Changning Yuwen’s Manor secretly.
How could there be any more family?
That's true. Back then, I feared that once Yuwen Zi becomes a person of prominence
Chang Ning Manor would be the knot from which new branches would grow out (Chinese idiom meaning: troublesome side issues keep arising)
Now, just perfect. The dead cannot testify.
- Wei Chuang, - Yes?
I need you to personally take care of something.
Yes.
Stop! It's all my fault.
Is your heart aching for her? Then she deserves even more to die!
This is all my fault, don't kill her. Stop!
I was wondering why I felt off
it's because of a bunch of people who I don't want to see.
Don't fight it. I already had you drink Soul Destroying powder.
No matter how skilled you are in martial arts, you don't have any strength left.
Senior sister, don't you want to duel with me in a fair match?
A fair match?
A person like you do not deserve to talk about fairness.
Do you remember this sword? You'd used this sword to ruin my life.
Ruined me and my husband!
Pei Yuan, listen to me!
Quit speaking for this slut, or I'll kill her now.
Then why don't you just end me now and quickly be done with it?
Quickly be done with it?
I had wanted to have revenge even in my dreams.
Do you think I will let you die a quick and painless death?
I want you to suffer as much as I do.
No, I want you to suffer more than I do.
Even to this day, you still don't know who did this to your face?
Forget it. Today is because of my carelessness. What Senior Sister wants to do to me,
you also want to screw with my face right?
A while ago, that was exactly what I was thinking
but I have changed my mind. Let's play something more exciting.
Only one of you will be allowed to live today.
Do you want to drink this Spirit Breaker Powder, or
do you want this slut to drink it?
Pei Yuan, why are you doing this?
Do you want to die for her?
Pei Yuan, I am wrong. I know I'm wrong.
Before, I didn't understand.
Now, it's all clear. In this world,
you are the only one who loves me.
I will not disappoint you.
Sure, then you kill her right now.
Alright, I'll kill her.
I will kill her.
I'll be here to watch over
don't you dare play any tricks.

I'm sorry.
I didn't think things will turn out like this.
Fuyao, run now!
Do you think she can get out of this house?
Fine.
If someone has to die today,
I'll die.
No!
First senior brother!
Can you spare Fuyao's life with my death?
First senior brother.
Fuyao, run now!
I beg you. Please, please just let it go.
Let go of this grudge.
Yuan'er.
You will rather die than to hurt her.
Why are you so stupid?
Do you know the consequences of your action?
Why is it so hard for you to just love me?
Let it go, Pei Yuan.
Senior brother.
I can't let it go.
I am going to kill you.
Ah Lie...
Your face. It was I who ruined it.
Why?
Because you've never thought of me as a human being.
I grew up with you since childhood and took care of you wholeheartedly.
But you?
You treat me worse than a dog.
You deserve all of this.
And all of you, do you think I am helping you?
I hate, I hate every one of you.
I want all of you die!
No! Fuyao!
Pei Yuan!
First senior brother.
I hate you.
First Senior Brother.
Fuyao.
Do you know? The...
the toxicity of this powder
is very special. It can make people’s hearts
freeze to death.
Today, I’m
dying beside you.
My heart will be frozen then.
In the future, I’ll will only remember... remember you.
Fuyao. To be able to hear you call me First Senior Brother once more...
how great that is.
My whole life, I've just been committing mistakes...
there's is one thing I didn't do wrong,
and that is loving you.
Forever loving you.
If...
If we’re...
able to return to Mt. Mystic Soul again,
how great would that be.

First Senior Brother.
Yun’er.
Wait a minute. Look!
Are you asking to be hit?!
Your martial arts have improved a lot in 3 years.
But, you still lack experience.
Just now, when you pulled out that move--Crane Clear Spring
I quickly blocked you with a backhand flip, you should have responded with Moon Shift Flower Shade
that way, left hand to subdue, right hand to sock a punch
no matter who it is, that person's strength would be disabled, so he can't counter or fight back. And then, wouldn't you be the winner?
Don’t cry. I know why you’re angry.
You’re angry that I didn’t let you run away that day. You’re angry that I brought you back, right?
I did those for your own good.
For my own good? If you’re doing for my own good, you shouldn’t have brought me back.
I ran away. I ran away--it's all because of living this predictable mundane life.
Staying in this Prime Minister’s Manor,
I need to do everything the way my father has them planned.
It's all up to what he wants. It's not fair.
If I hadn't gone out and saw the world myself,
and experience the fresh outside world, then it wouldn't be so bad
But now, I really admire and envy the sons and daughters of a commoner.
They can live their lives as they like.
They can live every day the way they want.
That's because your personality has become too wild.
- Godfather. - You don’t know your father’s heart.
Godfather, actually—
No more crying.
Yun’er, you’re weak and sick since young. You wouldn't be able to survive if no one looks after you.
Father sent you to school to learn a new art
didn't think that just one time of sending away, now brought upon myself resentment from you.
Getting all wild in temperament, let's not even talk about that, but you even learned the ways of the lowly servants staying in the kitchen fanning the fire and cooking the food.
Calling them lowly servants? Then why don't you not eat!
The kitchen is full of grease and ash, how is it an appropriate place for a delicate wealthy lady from a noble family like you to be in? Where do we start with the absurdity of that?
I especially like it. I just want to stay there.
I not only will stay by the stove, I will also invite all those lowly servants to come and eat my food.
However many come, however many I will serve!
Are you talking back to your father now?
Why have you become like this? Do you believe that I’ll—
Hit me! Hit me!
You only know how to scold me and discipline me.
Won't let me do anything! I live just to be a dog to you!
Since it's like this, I would rather I had died when I was young!
Do you see that living like this is even worse then the fate of a dead person?!
Yun'er, where are you going?
Yun'er!
- Go and call Sir Zong! - Yes.
Yun’er. Yun’er.
Sir Zong, here.
Doctor Zong, she’s my only daughter. Save her please.
I'll do my best.
Since childhood, Miss has been living with a serious illness. This isn't the first time she is at death's door...am I right?
That she's been able to survive to today, it is definitely not just due to a person's will power or strength,
there is definitely a mysterious magical artifact
Regardless, any magical artifact can only act as a facade. While she may be alive, she isn't cured.
This is a relapse of an old illness. It may even be more severe.
Sir, please do your best. I'll be eternally grateful.
You're too polite Prime Minister. Although it'll be best to have no disturbances during treatment.
Of course.
Sir, Yun'er is a good girl. Please be extra careful and do your best.
Leave.
