~Episode 32~
Previously...
This duo accidentally discovered that the book series Xiao Tian has been looking for, might be related to the medical book little Xiao Tian learned the art of medicine from. Both books were written by Chu Hong.
Cheers!
Congratulations to Xiao Tian for returning to the Royal Clinic.
It must be because your skills are too superb.
That's why Physician Leng let you have his position.
Don't talk nonsense. I respect Teacher Leng alot.
Furthermore, it's my mother's credit for giving birth to
a person with such good medical skills like me.
What you said is right.
For you to have accomplished what you had today,
you must have inherited Madame He's
intelligence, graceful manner and...
And...
And dependable nature.
And...
I don't know anymore idioms.
Don't know anymore idioms? Do continue.
Did you smear some honey on your lips? So sweet.
Are you trying to borrow money from me? I have none.
Let me tell you, I am serving the royalty now.
I will pay for this entire meal.
If there's not enough wine, I will go buy two more jars.
Here here here
Yeah
Mother, Today were happy, drink more
Here here here Cheers
Here
Madam He
Xiao Tian's medical skill is well-known in the palace now.
She is the Empress Dowager's personal physician.
She managed to cure the long-lasting headache the Empress Dowager had.
Everyone said
she will surely be in charge of the Royal Clinic in the future.
She will be the first female director of the Royal Clinic.
Actually, it's not important whether she is in charge.
What's important is
Is safety
Right right right Said it well
Everyone in the palace is saying,
that needle of hers,
is incomparable and can perform miracles.
Aiyah
Don't say it like that
Everyone says
my acupuncture skill is still lacking compared to that someone.
Who
You're saying the old physician called
Chu... Chu... Chu...
Chu Hong.
Right right
Chu Hong. Chu Hong.
Madam He do you know that person?
I dont know him
Mother you don't know him
Then how come you have that acupuncture book written by him?
Mother
When I was younger I saw that book
Where did you get it from?
I picked it up from the ground.
Madam He
Sometimes, love doesn't go the way you wish. Out of 10, you can only score 8 or 9.
If a guy casually bothers a woman, that's called taking liberties.
A woman casually bothering a guy is called seducing.
When they casually bother each other, then that's love.
There's nothing wrong with it. Just tell Xiao Tian.
Mom. You know Chu Hong right?
Tell me who is he?
Let me tell you Xiao Tian
From now on do not say that name
If you say that name again Don't call me your mother
She actually did get mad
He Tian Xin borrowed a series called
"Descriptions of flowers,grasses,birds and other beasts" from here?
Yes, a book series called that.
Measure the size of this book series.
Wait
Are the size and number of volumes in this series, the same as "Ben Chao Pin Hui Jing Yao"?
They are the same.
You useless fool. No need for you to check anymore!
We only asked her a few questions.
Why is Madam He that mad
Things between her and Chu Hong,
must not be simple.
As if there's a need for you to spell it out.
But there's nothing I can do if my mother refuses to say.
Then...
Why don't we ask Uncle Cold-face (Physician Leng)?
It's quite nice of him to let you keep your pretence as a guy at the Royal Clinic.
There's no use asking him.
Here.
You're full?
He told me before,
If you want to live
Do not look for the book
Is it really that serious?
Then are you going to continue investigating?
Of course
The more he doesn't want to tell me, the more I will investigate.
Teacher Leng, is anything the matter?
Concubine Mo wants you to deliver the medicine to Chu Xiu Chamber.
What medicine?
Medicine that is good for her baby.
Aiyah
How could I call you
to prepare medicine for My Lady?
If there isn't anything else I'll take my leave
What's the hurry?
Need to make sure that the medicine has no problem
Who knows if you want to hurt Lady Mo
You shouldn't think that everyone in the world Is like you
Last time you messed up with Empress Dowagers medicine
Furthermore, you are so jealous of My Lady because the Emperor dotes on her.
I have something to do Hold it
Wait a minute
Why are you so rough?
Even if you don't want to prepare it for My Lady,
You don't need to be like that
What exactly do you want?
Quickly pick it up.
Hurry
I already knew that you are envious of My Lady.
There's no need for you to resort to such petty tricks.
Since the medicine is gone,
shouldn't you go and fetch another bowl?
Mistress, are you really going to leave?
Of course
If I don't leave I will need to marry him
Miss if Master Zhao asks What am I supposed to say?
How about this
I'll go to the accounting room to take some money.
Make use of the money and hide yourself for two days.
Do not come back unless I am back
Understand
But no matter what
Don't let my Father hit you
Leave and have fun
I won't leave
I'll wait for Miss to come back
Ever since we were young
I was the only child
You were like my sister
If there wasn't you
I would have left this house long ago.
Without Miss
This place is not fun
but the outside world is big And lots of fun
I need to go out and see
Go out and see Mister Zhang right?
Who says
At most
I'll go and greet him
Miss then when will you be back?
Until that minister's son
Marry someone else then I'll be back
Your father surely won't let the minister break off the engagement.
Then I will never come back
I'll see who can last longer.
This situation is tough
Eunuch Li, please come this way.
Okay
Why is he here?
I suspect that Ben Chao Pin Hui Jing Yao
has been found by He Tian Xin and Zhang Zhe San.
It's alright if they found the book.
But if they were to find out how that Physician died that year...
Then you tell me where They kept the books
I already looked into it It's not with He Tian Xin
It should be with that Zhang Zhe San
That Zhang Zhe San
Don't mind! Don't, don't, don't. Don't mind it.
I know you hate that Zhang Zhe Sans A lot more than anything
I will send my most trusted subordinates to investigate this specifically.
If we are not careful, they might expose our secrets from that time.
Then we will be in big trouble.
We should continue to share our wealth.
So that it's not just something we talk about.
That's rather interesting.

Teacher?
Come in
Are you tired? Drink some tea
teacher is writing something?
Here here here
I'll help you with the ink
No need
Teacher, is your shoulder aching?
Do you need me to massage?
It's not like you to be so eagerly attentive.
What do you want?
I'm just expressing my gratitude to my teacher.
It's only right for me to serve you to the best of my ability.
But
I want to ask you something
Say it
Was there a doctor by the name of Chu Hong
in the Imperial Hospital the last time?
Teacher, what's the matter?
I'm fine
I don't know this person
Really
But he seems to be a really powerful physician here
He participated in the illustrations of Ben Cao.
Think about it
If I say I don't know him Then I don't know him
I'm busy leave
Think about it again why arn't you going?
Teacher Tang!
There's something I want you to help me with
Walk and talk with me
Chu Hong?
I remember this person
Why are you asking about him?
I heard hes very powerful in the physician world
So I was just wondering
This person is very powerful
Till this day, none of us from the Imperial Hospital
can beat his
acupuncture skills.
Are you okay?
I'm fine. I'm fine now.
You should talk to Physician Leng about this
The relationship between him and Chu Hong runs deep.
What is it?
Nothing
So where is Chu Hong now?
This thing
Nobody here at the hospital wants to talk about this
How come?
At that time, the previous Emperor ordered
the top physicians from the Imperial Hospital
to compile a series called "Ben Cao Pin Hui Jing Yao".
Chu Hong was one of them.
Not long after the series was completed,
someone said that a mistake was made.
Thus, the series was ordered to be burnt.
All 12 of the physicians and their families were executed.
I know now
Thank you I'll take my leave
Teacher! Teacher, teacher!
Teacher.
What is it?
Let me tell you
that Ben Cao Pin Hui Jing Yao has been found!
How did you know?
Everyone in the palace knows
And
Eunuch Lee's cronies are in the process of burning it
Teacher!
Aiya
Eunuch Li,
the number is not right.
It's less than 42 volumes.
Yes. We are short.
Just burn it first
Yes
Stop what you're doing
Eunuch Li you can't burn those books
Burn
Yes
Don't move Don't move
Move away
You can't burn it
I can't give it to you
Let go
He Tian Xin
What are these books to you?
This series is the most comprehensive medicine encyclopedia that has been illustrated.
It can save a lot of people
Okay Very good
Very well.
Xiao Xi Zi.
Yes
Since she's so attached to these books
Then let her burn along with the books
Yes
Leave
Let go
Your Majesty you came
What are you doing?
I found the flawed Ben Cao Pin Hui Jing Yao.
According to the previous Emperor's wishes, they must be burnt.
I'm just carrying out an order here.
Where did you find the books?
We found it over at Zhang Zhe San
He also took volumes of books
At that time, who said that there is a mistake in this series?
Im just under an order
Other things I'm not sure of
Inside these books are thousands of herbal medicines
It can't be that all of them have errors
Even if there are errors, we'll just have to correct them.
That doesn't mean you have to burn them
Emperor, this was the previous Emperor's decree
Don't listen to that lowly physician's blabbering
These books can help doctors prepare other medicines
We can use these as references when we prescribe medicine.
Who knows what other medical information is in here
No
Wasn't it clear that there are mistakes in there?
You want the Empress Dowager to take wrong medicine?
Are you trying to harm her?
Your Majesty Okay, okay.
Since the number of volumes does not tally,
and Zhang Zhe San smuggled these books into the palace,
they will serve as evidence.
Confiscate the books temporary. No one is allowed to touch them.
And also Eunuch Li
If you find Zhang Zhe San,
bring him back without harming him.
I will question him myself.
Your Majesty you
That's the way it is
I'll obey.
Retreat!
Yes
Go go
Elder Borther just now thank you
You found the book
Why didn't you tell me?
That's because I didn't get the chance to talk to you.
So we didn't tell you, we didn't do it on purpose
Even though Li Bao Chuan didn't destroy these books,
his motive must not be simple.
That's right
Elder Brother I heard
That year because of the books
12 physicians were killed
This seems like a really big issue
Since you read the books
Did you find anything?
I'm not done reading
So I didn't find anything
Xiao Tian
Do you know where Xiao San is?
I don't know
Right now I want to find him
I'm really worried about him
If you have any news about him
Please tell him
I want to get in touch with him
Elder brother whats wrong?
Even if we're able to get in touch, who knows
If he wants to talk to me
You guys haven't made up yet
You know what type of person Second Brother is
He's just hot-termpered
He's fine after he cools down
I know his personality
But
What I'm worried about is
We've drifted further and further apart
Not just that, we're not any different
Before the 3 of us
Had the same goal, and worked hard together
Even in the hard and painful times
That was my happiest days
But now, it's all different
Elder Brother you're at it again
You look like the sides of a dumpling when you frown.
Elder Brother, what do mean it's all different
We're the same as before having the same goal
What goal?
Together safeguarding the books of herbal medicines
Oh yeah Elder Brother can you Help me with something?
Say it
Can you help me write some directions/instructions?
I want to go to the ministry to find something
What is it that you're looking for?
Among the physicians who were executed that year,
my mother seems to know one of them.
I want to ask her about it
How come Madame He knows a physician?
This I don't know
That's why I need to find out
Okay, I'll go and write it out
Is there anyone? Open the door
Is anyone here?
Subtitles brought to you by the Unruly Qiao team at Viki
How are you Mister?
I'd like to know if this is Chu Hong's home
Yes
There is something I need to investigate
Does Physician Chu have any old neighbours or friends?
This
Follow me.
It's out the door to the right
Thank you
You're welcome
Is there anyone here?
anyone?
Is anyone home?
Sorry
Who is it?
Miss You are?
I'd like to ask you about something
What is it?
Do you know of a doctor named Chu Hong from the Imperial Hospital?
Physician Chu?
You are also a physician?
Yes
Come in come in
It's true that I delivered Physician Chu's daughter.
You're sure about that?
Oh, yes.
I remember the day she was born.
It was on the day of the mid-autumn festival in Yi Xue year.
Yi Xue Year's mid-autumn festival? How can it be...?
What's wrong?
Nothing
Thinking about this child
This year she should be 20
She is about the same age as you
And on her shoulder there
Is a big birthmark
I remember the day she was born
It was on the day of the mid-autumn festival in Yi Xue Year.
Thinking about this child This year she should be 20
And on her shoulder there
Is a big birthmark
Mother
Why are you home?
Taking time off from Tai He Hospital?
nothing to do?
Go. Go and get an extra cup.
Let's drink a few cups.
Come
What's happening with that situation from before
It's better now
Better?
Why are you still giving me that face if it's better?
You haven't been back for so long,
how dare you still give me that kind of attitude?
Mother There is something I want to ask you
What kind of person was my Father?
Why are you talking about him out of the blue
I know he's no good
But he is still my Father
I want to know more things about him
This kind of man
You don't need to know anything about him
Come drink
Mother Please answer me
How does my Father look like? Where is he from?
What other family did he have
When did you know each other
Mother, it seems like it's Something you can't talk about
What is my Fathers name?
Since I raised you
Your last name is He
You don't need to care about other things
Then what's your relation to Chu Hong?
Mother Do you really don't know him?
Are you finsihed?
I already told you
Don't bring up that person
Mother You won't say, so I'll say it for you
Chu Hong was a physician from Imperial Hospital.
In the end, his entire family got executed.
He has a daughter
who was born on the mid-autumn festival of Yi Xue Year.
The same day as me
On her shoulder there is a red birthmark
Answer me
I'm Chu Hong's biological daughter, right?
Right?
Mother
I want to hear it from your mouth
Mother
These 20 years I never knew What kind of person my Father was
When I was younger everyone had a Father
Do you know how envious I was?
Right now
I know that my father was a brilliant physician.
Mother I beg you please don't hide it from me anymore.
Xiao Tian
I'm going to tell you a story
A long time ago, there was a kitchen lady.
She got to know a physician.
They had such affinity.
They were as close as siblings.
But then one day
Don't know the situation that came up for the doctor's family
There whole family was sentenced to death
The doctor gave his daughter to a kitchen lady
He asked her to take the daughter someplace far away
To hide and bury their real names.
He didn't want her to know her identity
Because by doing so, she can escape a tragedy.
This kitchen lady took the child
and kept moving houses.
She treated this child...
Treated her like her own daughter
They lived together for 20 years
In fact, this kitchen lady
Always wanted to have the child's birth right
Known to the child
She wanted to let the child know her origins.
But when she remembered what the doctor said
remembering how the physician and his wife reluctantly left their child behind...
That look
by providing a peaceful life for that child to grow
can she live up to her parents wishes
then...
I really am Chu Hong's daughter?
Xiao Tian this situation can only be known by you
Don't let anyone else know okay?
If someone else finds out I will never be able to see you again
Then why was my father sentenced to death?
Let the past stay as the past.
I need to find out how my Father died
I can't let his death go without my understanding it
I won't allow that
Why
These 20 years
I kept this secret the entire time
because i needed to protect your life.
If anything happens to you
How am I supposed to Explain it to your Father and Mother?
All these years You never wanted to find out the truth Behind my Fathers death?
What happened if my Father died Because he was used a scrapegoat?
Have you not thought he deserved some kind of redress
I don't care
As long as you're safe and sound
I need to know the truth
Otherwise I can never be happy
Don't move
Subtitles brought to you by the Unruly Qiao team at Viki
Mother
mother's begging you
Don't look into it anymore

Criticisms from everyone...
Everyone said that you were adopted.
A child no one wants
I held it in
As long as you're safe and sound
I'm not letting your dead father down.
Mother
I won't put any blame on you in my father's matters
Don't worry
I will take care of myself
So what if you do that?
Days will still be spent like this
As long as you're safe and sound
I beg of you
Don't let me lead a life full of worries Okay?
Mother
You said before
That if you're framed You need to prove your innocence
I'm gonna do that
If you lose your life There's no point in proving it
Mother Wait until I find out the truth

After
I will take care of you
I will continue to talk back to you,
