[The Female Assassins in the Palace]
[Episode 37]
Arch Lord, look.
Forgive me for being bold.
Why are the knives that the hairpin killers used in this manor?
This...
Your Highness, hurry and tell him.
The hairpin killers must have put them here to frame you, right?
That's right.
How is this possible?
Mother! Mother!
Take your mother to her room to rest.
Okay, let's go, Mother.
Arrest Vice Prince!
Yes!
What are you guys doing?
- Hold it! - Release me!
Batu, what gives you the right to arrest him?
Da Er, don't be rash.
I'm just taking him to Arch Prince Chong's manor.
After I get to the bottom of this case
I'll bring him back myself.
You put it so nicely.
My father is a vice prince.
How can you arrest him like this?
You haven't investigated carefully and you've already come to a conclusion!
You're already treating him as a criminal!
If it was really to investigate the case
you should've come here to request his presence.
But the way you came here
you were really here to arrest him!
So don't blame me for being rude!
Da Er!
How is Mother?
She is unconscious.
It's all your fault!
And now you're taking Father away?
Are you trying to make my mother die from worry?
Da Er, E-Erduo, I was sent here by Arch Prince Chong.
I really can't do much about it.
After I take Father safely to the Arch Prince Chong manor
I'll come back and apologize to Mother.
Stop with your nonsense!
Will you let him go or not?
Forgive me for following orders.
Since that's the case...
look out!
Get them!
Stop!
General Chang, let's talk this through.
What is there to talk about?
Anyone who interferes with this investigation
is considered a criminal and can be killed.
If you keep doing this, you'll get into trouble.
Don't fake your concern for us!
You dared to come to our manor to make an arrest.
Didn't you want to see our family fall apart?
You're really misunderstanding me.
How are we misunderstanding?
If you don't release my father
we won't let you get away with this!
Da Er, you hold the fort
I'll go get weapons.
E-Erduo!
Don't move!
Let me go!
Let him go.
General Chang, I'll go with you.
Let my son go.
Your Highness, Arch Lord Da Er has publicly obstructed this case.
He is considered a criminal.
General Chang, since Vice Prince Duoluo Huiwu has agreed
to come peacefully, why are you still holding us up?
I'm sure Arch Prince Chong wouldn't want to implicate others.
No, Father, don't go with them!
This is definitely a trap.
This case has dragged on for too long.
They're just looking for a scapegoat to be done with the matter!
Da Er, the hairpin killer case is a serious case.
I will act justly.
I will look after Father. Don't worry.
I don't trust you.
All right, Da Er.
I trust Batu.
Let's just leave it at that for now.
Father!
You don't have to say any more.
General Chang, let's go.
Arch Lord Da Er, forgive me.
Let's go.
Da Er, don't worry.
It'll be all right.
Your Highness... Your Highness...
- Mother! - Your Highness.
Mother.
Da Er, where's your father?
Batu and General Chang took him away.
What? Took him away?
How can that be?
Your father is innocent!
I need to go see Arch Lord Chong.
Mother, just rest. I'll go.
Then why are you still here?
Why haven't you gone yet?
This is terrible! This is terrible!
This is terrible!
Hurry, this way!
Look!
E-Erduo! E-Erduo! E-Erduo! E-Erduo!
What's wrong with him?
Mother, E-Erduo...
is dead.
Your Highness!
Your Highness, I just heard the latest news.
What is it?
I heard that Arch Lord Batu found a lot of knives at Duoluo Huiwu manor.
Most importantly, these knives
are the same as the ones used by the hairpin killers.
Vice Prince Duoluo Huiwu is now the top suspect.
He's been brought over here.
The edge of this sword is incomparable.
It's been maintained regularly.
Qi-E, you say that you have nothing to do with this case
but why have you maintained these knives?
Why are the knives found in your manor
also found in the hands of the hairpin killers?
Tell me!
Your Highness, I really don't know.
To frame me, the hairpin killers must've used these knives
and then secretly taken them to my manor.
Please investigate this carefully!
Nonsense!
Both you and Fu Er have betrayed me!
You've committed capital crimes and should be executed!
You want to get away with it just by claiming you don't know anything?
You want me to investigate carefully?
Do you take me for a fool
who only accuses the innocent?
Please don't be angry!
I'm telling the truth.
I really have nothing to do with the hairpin killers.
Please believe that I am innocent!
Even now, you're still trying to deny it?
- Your Highness, are you okay? - Your Highness!
Since Qi-E claims he has nothing to do with the hairpin killers...
Fine. Come in!
Here!
Lock Vice Prince Duoluo Huiwu in the side wing.
He is not allowed out without my permission.
Yes!
Housekeeper Wang.
Here.
All of the people in Duoluo Huiwu manor are suspects now.
Capture all of them! Don't let a single one go.
- Yes. - Your Highness!
Your Highness! I'm innocent!
You must not wrongly accuse my family!
Your Highness, please look into it for me!
I'm innocent!
- Open it. - Yes.
Now you're releasing me?
You intended to lock me up until I died, didn't you?
Okay, I was wrong to have you locked up.
But I have something to tell you.
You... should brace yourself.
What is it?
Batu, why did you say that I should brace myself?
What did you do to my father?
Don't be in such a rush. This isn't the place to talk openly.
Let's talk when we get home.
You already locked me in jail!
What else could be more embarrassing?
Whatever it is, just tell me now.
- Caidie! - Stop right there!
Stop right there!
- Caidie! - Da Er, what are you doing here?
E-Erduo...
What's wrong with E-Erduo?
Tell me! Stop crying!
What happened?
Arch Lord, Caidie, Arch Prince Chong gave orders
that Vice Prince Duoluo Huiwu's family has to stay inside the manor.
No one is allowed out without his permission.
What are you guys still doing over there?
Take Arch Lord Da Er back to his manor!
- Yes! - Hold on! What's going on?
General Chang, I'm here.
It shouldn't be a problem. Ask them to leave for now.
But... Arch Prince Chong gave orders.
That's enough!
Da Er, tell me what's going on.
Why won't they let you leave the manor?
And what were you saying about E-Erduo?
What happened to Father?
It's all because of your husband!
He found some knives in our manor
and said that they are the same as the ones used by the hairpin killers.
So he suspects that our family is the mastermind behind the hairpin killers.
How is that possible?
There must be a misunderstanding or someone is framing us!
Ask him!
After Father was taken away
we found out that E-Erduo... was dead.
Dead?
What did you say?
Did you just say... E-Erduo was dead?
Impossible...
You're lying to me, right?
How is E-Erduo dead?
Impossible.
I need to go see E-Erduo.
Caidie! Caidie!
- I need to go see E-Erduo! - Calm down! Calm down!
- Caidie! - My brother is dead!
- Calm down. - How did he die?
E-Erduo was killed by this weapon.
Hairpin killer?
That's right.
Look carefully!
A hairpin killer!
If my father really was the mastermind behind the hairpin killers
how could he kill his own son?
The hairpin killers are controlled by Mo Yun.
Mo Yun is cunning. It's possible that...
Enough!
It's because you're ambitious.
Because you wanted to win Arch Prince Chong's favor
You're framing and trapping us
saying that our family is the mastermind behind it.
I will avenge E-Erduo!
Arch Lord Da Er, please act with dignity!
- Let me go! - Da Er!
Caidie.
You killed my brother.
Is my father next?
And then my whole family?
It's all your fault!
It's not like that! It's not like that, Caidie!
No, I must go see Arch Prince Chong.
- I must go see Arch Prince Chong. - Caidie! Caidie!
General Chang, I'm sure there are
a lot of mysteries surrounding E-Erduo's death.
I will go see Arch Prince Chong. Please release Da Er.
Release him.
Your Highness, Arch Prince is not feeling well.
Now is not the time. Come back in a few days.
Housekeeper Wang, this is a matter of life or death!
I'm begging you to help me
and tell Father.
Your Highness, please don't make it hard for me.
I really can't help you.
Father! I know you're inside! I want to see you, Father!
Caidie, calm down.
Doing this won't help Father.
And if Arch Prince Chong wants to punish you for this
the consequences could be severe.
You realize that the consequences could be severe?
Then you should've listened to me!
Father! I'm begging you to see me!
Father!
How dare you!
Greetings, Arch Princess Consort.
Caidie, you're not a child anymore.
How can you make such a racket and not follow any rules?
His Highness is resting.
Go back.
Auntie, I'm begging you.
Please help me.
Tell His Highness that my father is innocent.
Enough!
The hairpin killer case is still unresolved.
A lot of people have been implicated.
His Highness has always been just in doing things. He keeps his word.
He even treated Fu Er the same way because she was involved as well.
Until we find out the truth
Vice Prince Duoluo Huiwu's family must stay in their manor.
Princess Consort Zi Hui, my father has nothing to do with the hairpin killers.
My brother was killed by a hairpin killer's weapon.
Please ask His Highness to release my father
so that he can go home to see my mother.
My mother is bed-ridden right now
because she got hit with one tragedy after another.
So what?
E-Erduo's death doesn't prove Qi-E's innocence.
Who knows, maybe he had planned this with Mo Yun
in an attempt to prove his innocence.
Auntie, how can you say that?
Even a tiger won't eat its cubs.
Why would my father kill his own son?
Shut up!
I'm your elder.
You can't speak to me like that!
Arch Princess Consort, please don't be angry. Caidie is just anxious.
She didn't mean to offend you.
Auntie, I'm sorry.
I didn't mean it.
Please help me tell His Highness
that my Father really is innocent--
Enough. My head hurts.
You children are annoying.
Talking to you is like preaching to deaf ears.
- General Chang. - Here.
What are you still doing over there?
Take Da Er back to his manor.
Your Highness.
Do I have to do it myself?
Okay.
Arch Lord Da Er, please forgive me.
Your Highness.
Caidie, you must think of a way to save Father!
Caidie!
Your Highness.
Enough, just go.
We don't want His Highness to come out and be angry.
Yan Er, let's go.
Yes.
Princess Caidie, please go.
Caidie.
I know you're very sad because of E-Erduo's death, but...
Don't be such a hypocrite and fake your concern!
What? You're telling me now?
Why didn't you tell me before?
Can you listen to me explain?
What is there to explain?
We had to be at odds before you'd tell me?
When you led troops to search my manor
why didn't you ask me first?
Am I not your wife?
Do you only see me as a child who loves to cry and create trouble?
You don't have to discuss anything with me?
You had to wait until everything turned out like this?
It's not what you think.
That's not what I meant to do.
Not what you meant to do?
Then why won't you look me in the eye?
Look me in the eye and tell me!
Caidie!
I didn't know it would all turn out like this!
I don't want to hear it!
I don't want to see you!
Go away! Go away!
Caidie, what are you doing?
Didn't I tell you to treat Batu well?
What are you doing?
Princess Duan Min.
Let me ask you a question.
How can I treat him well?
I also thought I could love him
but do you know how much I hate him right now?
I hate him to death!
What are you saying?
Didn't you just say that you loved him?
Love or hate...
which one are you choosing?
I thought I could.
I also want to live happily with him.
You told me that everything would be all right.
But I didn't think that after we became husband and wife
we wouldn't be able to trust each other.
He doesn't even trust me.
How can I love him?
Is this what a married couple should do?
What you say might sound reasonable
but you think you understand what it means to be a married couple?
Think about it yourself.
Every time you're unhappy with him
it's always because you were unruly or creating trouble.
He's always the one who has to forgive you.
When have you ever been the one to tolerate him?
Me?
If Batu ever says anything that makes you unhappy
you hit him.
Is this how a wife should treat her husband?
Good thing no one saw what happened today.
If someone had seen, then what would you do?
- You would've embarrassed Batu! - Princess Duan Min.
It's my fault Caidie is angry right now. Please don't argue with her.
Don't do that.
You always let her get her way.
You'll spoil her.
I'm your older sister.
I have a responsibility to teach you.
Duan Min.
That's right, you're my sister.
Did you ask me anything out of concern for me?
My brother died.
- My father is locked up. - What?
But did you ask me how I felt?
You only spoke on his behalf!
What did you say?
E-Erduo's dead?
Yes, it's because of him!
He didn't discuss anything with me.
I have family members who are dead, locked up, and sick!
How can I forgive him?
How can I talk to him?
Yes, you're right.
But you're an adult now.
You can't be so rash all the time.
You can sit down and talk nicely.
Duan Min, you think the same way as Batu does, don't you?
You think I'm just a child.
No matter what it is, you can just coax me with a few words. Is that it?
Caidie.
That's not it.
- You're misunderstanding! - What do you mean that's not it?
She's on your side!
She never asked me how I felt!
She'll only side with you!
- Stop it! - That's enough!
What are you saying? Have you had enough yet?
If you keep doing this
I'll really scold you.
Your Highness, please go back.
Because I'm right, you'll scold me, is that it?
He's always right, and I'm always wrong, right?
I'm always wrong!
- Caidie! - What are you saying, Caidie?
Why can't you understand!
Princess Duan Min, she's very angry right now. Please forgive her.
- An Zhu, let's go. - Yes.
Arch Princess Consort, isn't that Princess Duan Min?
What's wrong, Duan Min?
That's what happened.
Mother, I'm sorry.
It's because I just said what was on my mind.
I momentarily forgot what was proper
and made you worry.
You aren't at fault.
Don't blame yourself.
Caidie is like a child.
Put in a good way, she's naive.
Put in a bad way, she's impudent.
Even though I like that she doesn't scheme
her father is suspicious.
If someone tried to harm Arch Prince Chong or Hong Hao
I won't forgive him.
You're right.
But right now, we don't have any concrete evidence
to prove who is the mastermind behind the hairpin killers, right?
The truth will be revealed.
We will eventually find the truth.
Guo Xin, Fu Er...
now even the whole Duoluo Huiwu family...
Even though I don't know who the mastermind is
I promise that
once I find out
I won't let any of them off.
Mother, what if it really is Vice Prince Duoluo Huiwu?
Then even though Caidie is Arch Prince Chong's goddaughter
I won't let her off either.
But Mother, Batu and Caidie are different.
He's an outsider
and his marriage to Caidie was arranged.
He has nothing to do with all the plotting and killing.
If something does happen to the Duoluo Huiwu family because of this
can you please let Batu off?
What are you saying?
Right now, isn't Vice Prince Duoluo Huiwu
the only suspect?
And I didn't say I had to target the whole family.
Moreover, what's your relationship with Batu?
Why do you care so much about him?
I didn't mention Batu at all.
Oh... nothing.
I was just a little impatient
and didn't think before speaking.
Duan Min, your mother died when you were young.
I've always thought of you as my own daughter.
You're a very considerate person.
It's my fortune that you call me Mother.
You can tell me anything.
Why are you so worried about Batu?
There must be a reason.
I don't dare to hide it from you.
Actually...
in my heart
Batu has always been the one I loved.
Is the love you're talking about a romantic love?
Yes.
But Batu is already married to Caidie.
You shouldn't like him no matter what.
No, they have a fake marriage.
They don't love each other!
They're not a real married couple.
That's absurd!
Those two are too bold.
Their marriage was bestowed by His Majesty.
If others knew...
They're deceiving His Majesty. They could be beheaded!
Caidie, stop doing this to me, okay?
Caidie, let's go to the Duoluo Huiwu manor to see Mother-in-law and E-Erduo...
Do you even have the right to see E-Erduo?
Who caused his death?
Whose fault is it that my father is locked up?
Even my mother being bed-ridden is all your fault!
You have no right to follow me.
Caidie, you're my wife. If I don't follow you, who am I supposed to follow?
You know that I'm your wife?
I, Aisin-Gioro Caidie, don't have a back-stabbing husband like you!
This is the last time I'll say this. Don't follow me.
From now on, you do your thing
and I'll do mine. We'll go our separate ways.
But Caidie!
This is your last warning!
Don't follow me, or else you'll be sorry.
Caidie!
- Caidie! - Make way, make way!
Caidie!
Make way, make way!
Excuse me!
Make way!
Caidie!
Are you all right?
How can I be all right?
Seriously... Why am I so unlucky today?
Why did I run into such a crazy woman?
Caidie is really angry right now.
I should wait until she calms down.
Mother, I know I was wrong.
I spoke too soon without thinking.
Please forget what I just said.
Forget it?
How can I do that?
What if Arch Prince Chong finds out about this?
Mother, you can't let him know.
You can't let him know about this.
If he finds out, not only will Batu and Caidie lose their lives
but their whole family could be implicated
because it's a serious crime to deceive His Majesty.
If anything happens to Batu
I'd rather be dead.
Mother, I'm begging you.
All right, all right, I got it.
I understand what you mean.
Mother.
Mother, the medicine is ready.
Here.
Slowly, take your time.
Mother, slow down. Don't choke.
I'm fine.
I just want to drink the medicine quickly
so that you guys can relax and rest.
Mother, it's my fault.
It's my fault.
If I had stopped Batu
Father wouldn't have been taken away.
E-Erduo wouldn't have been killed.
It's all my fault.
Now, you're sick and suffering.
Mother, don't worry.
I will think of a way to set Father free.
After E-Erduo is buried
I'll go take it up with Batu.
Although Batu was the one who took your father away
now that I think about it
we can't blame it all on Batu.
He was under Arch Prince Chong's orders
to investigate the case.
If he didn't act justly...
I'm afraid you and he would be the ones in trouble now.
Mother, you're in such a state
why are you speaking on his behalf?
Caidie is right.
If Batu hadn't brought troops here to search the manor
nothing would've happened to Father or E-Erduo.
Of course it's Batu's fault!
I know you both blame him
but we can only blame our bad luck.
My only wish now
is that your father will come back safely...
so that he can see E-Erduo be buried.
Mother, don't be sad.
The imperial physician said you have to watch your health.
Don't worry. No matter what, I'll think of a way to bring Father back.
Mother, don't worry.
Caidie and I will think of a way
to get Father back.
Here, drink your medicine.
Your Highness, you checkmated me last time with your two knights.
How come you're so careless today?
You made very calculated moves this time.
I've lost this game.
I admit defeat.
Your Highness, if you're not feeling well
you should rest.
Let's stop playing.
Your Highness, I'll take you to bed.
Greetings, Your Highness.
What is it?
Why do you look so terrible?
What happened?
Something has happened.
Something big.
Goodbye, Your Highnesses.
Housekeeper Wang.
Here.
Do you know
what important news Arch Princess Consort had for His Highness?
Why was she being so secretive
that she made us leave the room?
I don't know either.
I will take my leave.
That's nonsense!
How can Batu and Caidie have a fake marriage?
It's not nonsense.
I have a witness.
Absurd! This is absurd!
Your Highness, this is the truth.
I wouldn't dare to make this up
and falsely accuse others.
What are those two doing?
What do you plan to do?
Teach them a lesson!
How can they treat marriage as a joke?
Your Highness, this is absurd.
It's a crime that Batu and Caidie have a fake marriage.
His Majesty doesn't know about this.
If he finds out one day
you'll be the first to be punished.
Who else knows about this?
I'm not sure.
But I think that if you resolve this mater quickly
you won't make His Majesty look bad
and you'll protect our lives.
I'm not worried about myself.
Batu is working for me right now.
I need him for a lot of things.
As for Caidie, although she's a little naughty
she's a good girl.
Otherwise, I wouldn't be her godfather.
How about this?
Let's keep this matter under control
and teach them a lesson in secret.
Your Highness, forgive me for being blunt.
You've always kept your word.
Why are you like this when it comes to Caidie?
If you spoil her like this
you're letting down His Majesty.
But Batu is a talented man.
If you want to keep him
have his achievements make up for his mistake.
But I think Caidie
has always been spoiled and doesn't know her place.
Her father works with the hairpin killers.
It'll be bad to keep her around.
So you mean...?
Punish her according to the law.
If His Majesty finds out about this
our whole manor could be in trouble.
We can't act rashly.
Let me think about this.
Your Highness, you don't have to think about it.
This is also for Duan Min.
Duan Min? What does it have to do with her?
I just recently found out
that Duan Min has loved Batu for a long time.
The Duoluo Huiwu family is getting punished for its crimes.
This shows support for Batu and Duan Min's relationship.
This resolves Duan Min's feelings
and helps you keep Batu, a talent you need.
Isn't that killing two birds with one stone?
But... but Caidie is my goddaughter.
She's also like a daughter to me.
How is that the same?
Duan Min is your biological daughter. Caidie is your goddaughter.
There's a huge difference!
Your Highness, if you can't do it
leave it to me.
How can you...
I will take care of it for you.
Your Highness, you can just rest.
I'll have Hui Yi come over and take care of you.
I'll take my leave.
General Chang, did you make a mistake?
How can Batu and Caidie have a fake marriage?
Deceiving His Majesty is a serious crime!
They wouldn't be that foolish.
You must've made a mistake about them faking their marriage.
This isn't something that's a mistake just because you say so.
Arch Princess Consort asked me
to escort your family
to Arch Prince Chong's manor to discuss this in person.
Of course this includes Princess Caidie.
What?
Don't make things hard for me.
If you have anything to say, have Caidie say it to Arch Princess Consort herself.
This... isn't something that rests solely on Caidie.
What about Batu? Did you ask him? What did he say?
Naturally, someone else is escorting Batu.
But Arch Princess Consort didn't ask me to come here to question you.
She wants to question your family personally.
Do you understand what I'm saying?
This is a huge problem.
Caidie wouldn't really hide something like this, would she?
Not to hide anything from you
but Caidie had always hated her arranged marriage.
And her fake marriage with Arch Lord Batu
isn't a baseless rumor.
Arch Princess Consort has evidence.
Don't make things hard for me.
What?
Impossible!
How could Auntie know about this?
It's true.
General Chang said that Arch Princess Consort has proof.
Proof?
What proof?
Is it really true?
It's... true.
So what do we do?
Don't admit it no matter what!
They can't do anything if you don't admit it.
Didn't you say there's proof? How can I not admit it?
What do we do?
Your Highness, you said that a wise man submits to circumstances.
Just beg for forgiveness.
You're Arch Prince Chong's goddaughter.
Arch Princess Consort won't make things hard for you.
What do we do? What do we do?
And there's also Arch Lord Batu! You must beg for him too.
Why should I beg for him too?
Of course you have to!
His relationship with Arch Prince Chong isn't as good as yours.
If something goes wrong
he could be beheaded!
Good! I want him beheaded!
If he hadn't brought troops here to search the manor
would my father have been arrested?
Would my brother have died?
I hate him so much, I want him beheaded!
I hope they chop him up and throw him into the river as fish food!
Your Highness, he had no other choice!
In this situation, there's no other choice but to have him beheaded.
Your Highness, can you not be like this?
Stop being stubborn.
Can't you see the things he does for you?
Aren't you touched at all?
Even I can see that you two love each other.
Arch Lord Da Er, please get out of the way.
General Chang! How can you be so rude
as to barge into someone's room without announcing yourself!
I am under Arch Princess Consort's orders to escort Her Highness to the manor.
- General Chang! - Why aren't you listening?
Your Highness, Princess Consort Zi Hui sent someone to come get you.
I know. I'm not deaf.
- Why have they come so quickly? - General Chang!
You must be humble before Arch Princess Consort.
And you must beg for Arch Lord Batu as well!
Only you can save him.
How can I save him?
Just say that you forced him.
If you take all the responsibility
he can be saved.
Please get out of the way!
You can't!
Arch Lord Batu, please.
Your Highness! Your Highness!
What is it, An Zhu?
Princess Caidie and the whole Duoluo Huiwu family
and Arch Lord Batu are here.
Where are they now?
They're in the office.
You two are bold!
You dared to have a fake marriage.
Tell me, whose idea was it?
It was mine.
I don't understand what you're saying.
After getting married, Batu and I have respected each other as husband and wife.
Even though we sometimes fight
to say that we have a fake marriage because of that
is really making a big deal out of a small issue.
I have undeniable proof.
You want to pretend that you don't know what I mean?
Arch Princess Consort, we had an official wedding ceremony.
Of course we're a real married couple.
How could we have a fake marriage? This is absurd.
You mean to say that I heard a rumor and am taking an action based on that?
I wouldn't dare.
I just hope that you will look into it carefully.
Maybe someone is purposefully trying to start trouble with this rumor.
Yes, someone must want this rumor
to divert our attention and create trouble!
It's possible that it's the hairpin killers.
They must feel like they have to do something
because of the recent investigations.
That's right! That must be it!
Just think about it. My brother was just killed by the hairpin killers.
They must want to entrap Batu and me.
I promise that my father has nothing to do with the hairpin killers.
Auntie, you must tell Arch Prince Chong
that Father is innocent and should be released
and avenge E-Erduo!
Enough! I already said
that E-Erduo's death doesn't make Qi-E innocent.
Don't bring that up again.
But Caidie, let's see if you can explain this.
Housekeeper Wang.
Here. I await your orders.
Bring in the witness.
Yes.
Nanny Li, this way.
Greetings, Arch Princess Consort.
Nanny Li, after Caidie and Arch Lord Batu were married
didn't you give Caidie a full body check up?
Yes, I did.
And what were the results?
Nanny Li, I asked you here
so if you tell the truth, you will be rewarded.
If you don't
you'll be in a lot of trouble.
I did give her a full body checkup.
At that time, Her Highness was...
Say it.
A virgin.
Caidie!
You may leave.
Yes.
Arch Lord Batu, now what do you have to say?
I'd really like to hear who it is that wants to stir up trouble
and started baseless rumors!
Arch Princess Consort, there must be a misunderstanding.
Batu and Caidie wouldn't have dared to do something like that!
Maybe when they first got married, they were still young
and didn't know what to do. That must be why.
How dare you!
Then tell me, if they don't have a fake marriage
why did they have De Bao bring
a fake silk veil to deceive His Highness the day after their marriage?
Tell me, whose idea was it?
Who was so bold as to look down on imperial kindness?
- It was me. - It was me.
Who exactly was it?
It was me.
It was all my idea.
Caidie, do you know what you're saying?
Did you forget?
At that time, I forced you. You had no other choice.
It's not like that. Why are you--
Auntie, it was all my fault.
You can put the blame on me.
That's not it. Caidie, what are you--
I must take responsibility for my actions.
Don't speak up for me.
It was my idea.
Auntie, it was my brilliant idea.
Please be kind and forgive me.
How dare you.
Don't you know that deceiving His Majesty is a crime punishable by death?
Arch Princess Consort, Caidie was just being naughty.
She didn't mean to do it.
She will change. Please be forgiving!
Your Highness, please be forgiving!
Auntie, I know I was wrong.
I won't dare do something like that again.
Please be forgiving.
And please tell Arch Prince Chong--
You dare to bring up His Highness?
Because of your issue, he was so angry, he still has a headache.
He has to rest in bed.
Tell me, did you come up with the idea first and then force Batu to comply?
- Yes. - No.
- Caidie, you-- - Then, Batu...
Here.
Since you were forced to by Caidie
and since you've done a lot for Arch Prince Chong
I'll ask Arch Prince Chong to plead for His Majesty to spare you.
As for you...
It's my fault.
You always loved to play little tricks and play games.
I always thought you were naive and cute
and never taught you well.
Who knew you'd commit such a serious crime.
Deceiving His Majesty is a serious issue.
His Majesty won't just let you off
so I can't help you this time.
- Auntie! - Arch Princess Consort!
- General Chang.
Here.
Lock up the whole Duoluo Huiwu family.
Auntie!
Batu and Caidie will be separated.
After you report to His Majesty
Caidie will be immediately beheaded!
- Arch Princess Consort! - Yes!
I know I was wrong!
- Arch Princess Consort, listen to me. - Auntie!
She didn't mean to!
- Auntie! - Arch Princess Consort!
She didn't mean to!
Don't say any more!
There's no turning back on this matter!
Arch Princess Consort!
What did you say?
Caidie and Arch Lord Batu have a fake marriage?
Rubbish!
It's true.
Arch Princess Consort said
that after it's reported to His Majesty, Caidie's whole family will be beheaded.
General Chang! General Chang!
Please be magnanimous and let the family go.
Arch Lord Batu, you heard what Arch Princess Consort said.
I am just doing what I was ordered to do.
Let's go!
General Chang!
