Mr. Zhang is our respected guest
Play an artistic song
Cheer him up
Yes
Have we met before?
Have mister ever been Xiangfen House?
I'm a frequenter here
I'm singularly plain
It is not odd that I
look like one of harlots
You
Han Yue
Miss, my younger brother is drunk
You may continue
It's fine. I'll start
You do have a distinct flavor
Award her
Madam Xu only allows me play one song
I'll depart
Did you just play Yujiyin?
Yes
This is a rare song
I didn't expect that you know it
What's your name?
Reply to mister My name is Lv'e
If there is nothing else
I would leave now
Miss Lv'e is new here
If Mr. Zhang wants her
you should hurry up
We are here for Nverhong wine Brother Zhang, you can go if you want to
It's okay. I'll be here for elder brother
Miss Lv'e
Mister, you came
Miss Lv'e
Why are you changed?
Where do I change? Just now
You seem so distanced
So do you like the former me
or the present me?
Both
Drawing this peony by myself
is kinda difficult
Why don't you help me draw it?
I've outlined it
All you need to do is just coloring it
There is pearl powder in it
which is precious
You've got to color it carefully
Come on
Done
Let's go, mister
Mister
The pigment is still wet
How about you blowing it dry?
I've given Madam Xu 50k bucks
Mister
How about
you do me another favor?
Then I'll let you do what you want
I'm willing to give you
my heart
Mister
Whip me
How could I whip you?
Just like this
Like this
Come and whip me, mister
Come, mister
Do it, mister
You understand?
Your turn
OK
Whip me
Come, mister
Come whip me, mister
Come, come and whip me
Chase me
Come whip me, mister
Come on
Come on, mister
Mister, what's wrong?
There was not pearl powder
but knockout drops
on that painting brush
You sniffed and blew for a long time As the time goes
you should have fainted earlier
Someone is murdered
Someone is killed
Zhang Zhong
Brother, stay and wait for me
Who are you?
Even though you forget me
you shouldn't forget this peony
You drew it on your own
No
Impossible
Peony is dead She died between my arms
If I'm not Peony
who am I?
Death can not be reborn
Not to mention
there is no ghost in the world
I must be dreaming
This is not your dream
Mr. Han, look carefully
I'm standing right in front of you
Maybe this girl has similar experience with me
So I'm able to come back
and attach myself to her body
I'm able to
stand in front of you like this
Who are you? What do you want?
Mr. Han
Don't worry
I have never
grudge you
I just want to see you
Could you tell me
whether the moonlight tonight
is beautiful?
Peony
It's me
Mr. Han
Everyone has their blind side
or the bitter past
Han Xiu is not an exception
Even though he loves his wife now
his dearest lover
is someone else
Her name is Peony She was an entertainer in a classic brothel
She valued herself and made a living by playing the qin
And had countless audience per day
There was a rumor saying that
someone would cost three luminous pearls
to see her face
Peony had always concern on playing the qin
and never responded to any meeting
Everyone considered her as a fairy
But the truth is
Peony already had her lover
who is Han Xiu
Mr. Han, you told me
that you will bring me out of these troubles
I did say that
When I sold this batch of illegal salt
I would be rich
Then
I'll be able to ransom you
But you failed
Your promise turned into foam immediately
I was sold out
by someone
and surrounded by soldiers
They caught me and my booty
So, what happened then?
Then
I was locked into a dead prison
I thought I would definitely die
But that censor of salt
released me
He said that there was no evidence
I've been treated unjustly and deserved an acquittal
When I know this news
I wanted to tell you at once I ran to find you
Peony, Peony
Peony
The moment I pushed the door
I saw your corpse
You killed yourself for me Liar
During all these years
you keep telling others that I killed myself
Don't you feel guilty?
Mr. Han, Mr. Han
Mr. Han
Silly girl
How could you come here?
This is not where you should come
Go
No
Do what I said
No, go
I bribed the guards and he let me in
Mr. Han, don't you worry
I'll find a way to rescue you out
Do you know what crime I committed?
I sold illegal salt
No one can save me
No
You have to take care of yourself from now on If you meet someone who sincerely love you
and want to take care of you
you should be with him
No no no
Not gonna happen
I've inquired about it
Censor of salt is my countryman
If I give him all my money
it must be working
I will save you out at any cost
Time's up, leave now
Mr. Han
Mr. Han, wait for me
I'll save you out of here
Mr. Han, wait for me
Mr. Censor said
it was an unjust case
We should release you now. Open the gate
Peony
Hopeless
Right?
Yes
You begged that dirty censor
for me
You exchange your scars
and virginity
for my bright prospect
But I had no money
to ask a doctor for you
I
had to
hold your hands
which had no intact fingers on
and feel the warmth fading
Peony
Mr. Han, let me
play Yujiyin again
for you
Interesting. Do it again
Crap. He lured me away from my brother
Mr. Han
You finally shout the truth out
Yes
I do deceive myself all the time
Peony
You were tortured to death by that dirty censor
You should blame me
I can't protect my own girl
I shouldn't be a man
I don't deserve to be a man
I don't deserve it
I don't deserve to be a man
I don't deserve it
I don't deserve to be a man
I don't deserve it
I don't deserve to be a man
I don't deserve it
Mr. Han, I don't blame you
I just want to see
if everything is okay
Peony
I miss you so much
I miss you, too, Mr. Han
What happened?
Go go go
Then
I married your elder sister
I give her exponential love
which should be yours
My elder sister is in poor health and infertile
These years
Thank you for your care
As for that dirty censor
I schemed
to frame him collude with illegal salt sellers
Seven years ago
he died in the prison
So I don't blame you
It's gone
All is gone
I can't forgive myself all these years
I wanted to die with you
or suffer your pain a hundred times
But I cowered
I didn't dare
So
What do you wanna do
to forgive yourself?
Should I pull out all your nails
or poke your eyes?
Both would work
You witch
Mr. Han, the censor is here
Save me
Accept my sword
Bitch, stop
Hurry
Elder brother
Who the hell are you?
What do you want to do to my elder brother?
You don't have to know
I'll kill you
Mr. Han
Where are we?
This is the place you died
That year
I embraced you under this peach flower tree
You told me
that you wanted to bite your tongue
but wanted to see me
So you waited
and waited
You waited me for the whole day
I finally showed up I didn't bear to tell you that
I can't afford a doctor So I told you that
I've called the doctor
and he was on his way
I also kept telling myself
that as long as we hang on a little longer
and longer
you will gradually recover
Mr. Han
You pictured me a
reachless dream
It was my fault
Mr. Han, what are you doing?
Why did you evoke my miserable memory?
Why did you pretend to be Peony?
It is psychedelic
in your nails
Trick like this will never
get me normally But why did you
disguise as Peony?
Do you want to kill me?
Say it
Since you've been sober
I won't conceal it anymore
Yes
I'm here to kill you
Pretending to be Peony
is to confuse you
So I'll have the chance
But why?
We've never met before
Why are you
trying such hard to kill me?
You sell illegal salt
to anyone
Army of Daliang eats your salt
and attacks my country
Citizens lose their homes and everything
So you have the sin
No matter what
you shouldn't dress up as Peony
Han Xiu
Look at me carefully Look at my eyes
Actually me and Peony have nothing in common
Am I Peony just
because of this flower on the chest?
If you don't have guilt
how could you be deceived easily?
You lie to yourself day and night
that Peony killed herself
Peony was tortured to death
to rescue you
Han Xiu
Look at me
I'll ask you again
Did I lie to you
or can't you
abandon
your wealth?
So you failed her
Enough
Off you go
I'm commanded to kill you
If you are still alive
I have to die
As you said
you are willing to suffer Peony's pain a hundred times
I
I was softhearted for a while
and can't do it
So I missed the moment
Fine
No matter how hard I struggle
I'm just an ant
in this world
If someone steps on me
I must die
Goodbye
You go ahead
Wait
What?
You look like a good guy
Could you do me a favor for the last time?
What favor?
Pretend as Peony again
Even though I'm fabulously rich now
and feel that my life
is more important than others
the truth is, everyone is equal Everyone's
happiness, pain and sorrow
are the same
In the end, Peony
didn't tell me her pain at all
But I know that she was afraid of pain
Even when
she kicked something accidentally
she will cry out for a long time
But at the end
She didn't say a word
but kept forcing a smile for me
I knew she was suffering
but I did nothing
whether in the past
at that time
or now
She has done a lot for me
I'm supposed to do something for her
You can complete your mission now
After listening to you
I feel that our future is beautiful
In the future
I'll be a
wealthy merchant
I'll ransom you out
and marry you blatantly
We'll have grey hair together By then
I will hang out with you everyday
All passengers will
praise us that
we are a heaven-made match
I really want to see you at that time
You must be vigorous
and imposing
Chief
Chang'an
Congratulations, Chief. You've finished the mission
It was Han Xiu
It was him who saved me Chief may
inhale some psychedelic and be dizzy
The pressing matter at this moment is opening Hongmo umbrella
to close this case
Then we will leave
Han Yue will catch us soon
If you have anything to say
you can tell me afterwards
I'm carrying the antidote
I've been sober all the time
Chang'an
I would have lost the opportunity to kill him
But Han Xiu
He held my hand
Chief
Not now to say these
Han Xiu is dead
Once you open Hongmo umbrella
everything
will be done
Is this Ground Golden Lotus?
Yes
One person's blood is
for raising one lotus
How much blood do they need
to stop?
These people
Do they deserve the death
or not?
It doesn't matter
You are alive
That's the only thing matters
Brother
Come out
I'll catch you
Miss Wanmei
Miss Liuguang
Master instructed that
you don't need to report in Apricot Mansion
Since now
you are the 13th killer in Guihua City
What in this lacquer box is your share of this mission
Thanks to Master
Thank you
This yard
is also yours
Generally
you should have two servants
But Master said nothing for you
You may ask your shadow to handle these things
Yes
You are sort of my person
I'm happy
to see you return alive
However
You can't go to Apricot Mansion to report
You should know
what it means
Wanmei understands
If you want to survive longer
you'd better stay away from Tingzhu Yard
I've said a lot today
You'd better forget what I told you
And
your shadow is indeed great
If you die one day
he will be mine
