[ I Will Never Let You Go ]
[ Episode 17 ]
Have all our farmlands
and housing properties pawned.
This way...
Replying to Madam.
To mortgage all the various land parcels and houses
will give us a total revenue of two million and three hundred thousand taels.
This is the final amount.
We can't go beyond this amount.
Otherwise, when people come to encash their pawn ticket,
we would not be able to open our door.
Make it eight million and three hundred thousand taels then.
My mother has never done business before.
Please do your best
in holding on when we do the bidding
on the day after tomorrow.
I...
am thanking you all here now.
We don't deserve that.
We are Mo Manor's managers. It's our obligation.
Young Master, be at ease and recuperate.
Go make the preparations.
Yes.
Yishan.
Young Lord Lin!
Young Master's Cousin,
Young Lord Lin, Miss Lin,
our Young Master has been poisoned. May Young Lord Lin immediately go back with me to save him.
What did you say?
Eldest Brother! Eldest Brother!
Eldest Brother, how are you doing?
Cousin, who did this to you?
- It was Mingyue Villa. They sent Qing'er to poison me. - Qing'er?
Didn't you say that you can guard against her?
How come she was still able to poison you? Can the poison be cleared?
Young Lord Lin! Young Lord Lin!
Come take a look and see if the poison can be cleared?
Okay.
Uncle Mo, where is Qing'er? Have we caught her yet?
She was the only one next to the Young Master at that time.
After she did it, she escaped.
Young Master struggled to call the guards. When Jiansheng heard about it, he immediately called for me.
And then he led the guards with him to catch her.
I am going to catch Qing'er right now.
As long as she is back, Cousin will have the antidote.
Cousin Yun,
Jiansheng has already gone to find Qing'er.
They don't need you. Go find the Seventh Prince.
Seventh Prince?
Qing'er looks just like Liu Qingwu.
If I am right, she is from Mingyue Villa.
The only person who can make Mingyue Villa hand over the antidote is the Seventh Prince.
Okay, I will go find him right now.
Mother,
Buqi, leave me for now.
I will just have Brother Lin here to treat me.
Madam Mo,
I will need to take a better look at his wound.
Please go back first.
Dansha, go back and rest, too.
Yes.
Everyone in the room, please leave us first.
Young Lord Lin, we will be waiting for your good news then.
Buqi,
go out to wait, too.
Eldest Brother,
you will surely be okay.
- Madam. - Young Lord Lin,
how is he?
Madam,
I've done the best I could. Lord Mo's poison has no antidote.
I will prescribe something and use a silver needle to stop the poison.
I will have to do it every two hours.
It can last him...
three days.
Only three days to live.
No way.
Cousin Yun will surely bring the antidote back.
Brother Lin, could you let me stay?
I promise not to bother you.
Buqi,
Young Lord Mo would like to be alone.
This is very important for him to preserve three more days of his life.
You may not bother him tonight.
Buqi, Madam, please go back for now.
Dansha,
you can stay and help me.
- Yes. - If you two are here,
I can't concentrate on doing my acupuncture.
Go ahead.
Go find more doctors.
Get every doctor in the city!
I don't believe...
that there is a poison without an antidote.
Understood, Madam.
I will go pray.
Buqi,
come with me to pray to Bodhisattva
to bless Yishan.
Do you still have morals?
Except for killing and fighting, is there anything else you are good at?
I thought you were
a smart businesswoman.
It turns out
that you are just a rash fool.
Why is Your Highness so angry?
Did you send people to
kill Mo Ruofei?
I wouldn't dare.
Ever since Qingwu committed such a big crime,
I have been extremely careful. I didn't even leave my house.
Don't even mention picking on Mo Manor.
I knew you wouldn't admit it.
I don't want to waste my words on you.
Let me tell you.
Because of your stupidity,
the rights for running the Imperial Treasury
is no longer yours.
Why is Your Highness suddenly pulling back?
I am pulling back?
If Mo Ruofei is still alive,
no matter how much silver you offer,
when I make the bid announcements,
I can always lower Mo Manor's bid.
This way,
you can have the rights of running the Imperial Treasury.
Even if Mo Ruofei knows about it,
just to preserve the Mo Manor,
he would not mess with me.
The more he wouldn't dare publicize this matter.
But now, he is dying.
Madam Mo
has nothing to lose.
She would even dare to question me with their bid document.
By then,
tell me how I should handle it?
Also,
my spies in Mo Manor have already told me that
Madam Mo has pawned all of her estates in order to get the right to run the Imperial Treasury.
She has raised the bid to eight million taels.
Liu Mingyue,
how do you
want me to help you?
Please don't be angry, Your Highness.
The poisoning of Mo Ruofei was indeed not my doing.
I will raise the bid
to more than eight million taels.
Please don't worry, Your Highness.
Okay.
If you can really get eight million taels,
when I make the bid announcement,
I will have Yu'er to have someone
raise it by two million
over Mo Manor's bid.
This way, you can
get the right to run the Imperial Treasury.
Madam Mo, will also have nothing to say.
Thank you, Your Highness.
Ah Fu,
immediately ask for 20%
of their bid fee as deposit.
For the rest, they will have to submit it
to the state treasury within seven days.
If it can't be turned in,
the bid will be canceled.
We won't return the deposit.
I would love to see
if Liu Mingyue
can get the eight million taels
from Zhu Manor,
or from
Mingyue Villa,
or from,
the mysterious person behind her.
- Ah Fu. - Prince.
Keep a close watch.
I think...
we are getting closer
to that mysterious person now.
Yes.
Zhu Manor needs to put in an additional increment of two million taels of ready silver?
This happened suddenly. I hope that Butler Zhu will be able to forgive me.
Master Liu, this is not a problem of whether I can forgive or not.
To Zhu Manor, two million taels of ready silver
poses a great risk. I can't make this decision.
I have to discuss this matter with our Grand Master Zhu.
But the bidding of the Imperial Treasury starts the day after tomorrow.
I totally have no time to go back.
Why don't we just forget about
getting the authority for the circulation of government funds?
I never imagined that Zhu Manor was this cowardly and cautious.
It is unnecessary for Master Liu to provoke me.
It was Master Liu who approached us first about the collaboration.
The amount of ready silver previously
was calculated together by the two families.
Now, at the last minute, you want us to add an additional amount.
It's impossible.
Why don't we do this?
Mingyue Villa will contribute an additional amount of three million taels.
Zhu Manor will contribute an additional amount of one million taels.
If I do not go through Grand Master Zhu, the most I can add is
five hundred thousand taels.
So Master Liu, please don't put me in a spot.
It's getting late.
I have to go back to make preparations for the biding the day after. I take my leave.
All right.
Zhu Manor will contribute an addition amount of five hundred thousand.
Mingyue Villa will make up for the rest.
Master Liu is truly an exceptional woman. You are very frank.
It's a deal then.
I will go back and make preparations now.
We shall put all the medicine into it.
I want Hua Buqi to be buried with Yishan.
Madam,
if Hua Buqi dies in Mo Manor,
the Prince will most certainly investigate into it.
It will be very hard to safeguard Mo Manor by that time.
Since someone has poisoned Yishan,
there will also be someone who will poison her.
By then the Seventh Prince will think that she was poisoned alongside Yishan.
How much I would want Seventh Prince
to help me investigate and bring to justice the culprit who poisoned Yishan?
As to the rest, I can't be bothered with them.
My Lady, you have been kneeling the whole night. Please eat something.
Godmother.
Here, Godmother.
Let's eat.
Godmother, please eat some, too.
Godmother's expression isn't right.
Why is she looking so peaceful?
Shouldn't she be grieving?
It can't be that Godmother is venting her anger with me that she wants kill me by poison?
Uncle Mo, I think I won't eat after all.
If I pray with an empty stomach, Buddha will think that I am more sincere.
Buqi, please sit down.
Eat something with me. I'm hungry, too.
Buqi, we still don't know if Yishan will live or die.
You have just recovered from a major illness. Should you fall sick again,
what will happen to this big Mo Manor?
Godmother, please don't worry. I'm all right.
You are already so greatly troubled by what happened to Eldest Brother.
Please do not worry about me, too.
Let's eat.
What is it, Buqi?
Don't you normally like white fungus broth best?
Actually, I don't have much appetite now.
I just want to eat something with a stronger taste.
Why don't I take a look in the kitchen?
I'll see if I can find something that I can eat.
- I'll come back after I've eaten. - Stand where you are!
You must drink this white fungus broth today.
Godmother,
wh-what are you doing?
Looks like I have underestimated you.
You have been long suspicious of me. Isn't that so?
No, no, why would I be suspicious of Godmother?
I just want to go to the kitchen to look for something to eat.
Do you know why
my husband passed away at such a young age?
Please, someone!
Don't shout anymore. Since I want to kill you,
I have already sent away
all the maids around here.
Godmother,
you are killing someone in front of Bodhisattva. Aren't you afraid that she will punish you?
Bodhisattva?
I stopped believing in that a long time ago.
If gods really existed, then why don't they have eyes?
I used to be the most beautiful Lady of Feiyun Fortress.
With my wedding dowry of two million taels,
I helped Mo Manor win back the authority for the circulation of government funds.
That made Mo Manor the richest family in the capital city. But how did Mo Manor treat me?
How did that Mo Baixing treat me?!
He told me that a childhood friend of his
had escaped to the capital city
because she ran away on her wedding day.
Okay, I allowed her to live in the adjacent courtyard of the Mo Manor.
But what happened in the end?
He told me that wicked woman was pregnant with his child.
He wanted to take her as a second wife. At that time,
I was filled with hatred.
I was mad with rage.
I got someone to burn down Xue Manor and killed everyone in the Xue family.
After Xue Fei died,
he fell ill from longing for her.
He never recovered from his illness.
After he passed away,
how did the people of the Mo family clan
treat my son and I?
Yishan was only ten years old then. I did not even have
a single relative in the capital city, but...
but they wanted to throw the two of us out!
Euphemistically speaking, they wanted us to guard the ancestral shrine,
and support us for the rest of our lives.
But in actuality,
we were nothing but a widow and a fatherless child to them,
isolated and helpless.
They wanted to rob us of our family property.
What?
Are you frightened out of your wits?
Princess?
Everyone thought that you were the daughter Princess of the Seventh Prince.
Actually,
you are just an illegitimate child of Mo Baixing!
So it was you who killed my mother!
You can say whatever you like.
When I asked Uncle Mo to set fire on Xue Manor,
Xue Fei managed to escape during the chaos.
Uncle Mo said he didn't see her.
But I'm very sure
that she's definitely dead.
You're a crazy woman.
All these are Master Mo's fault.
It was Master Mo who wanted to take my mother as his concubine.
If you have so much hatred, why didn't you kill him?!
It was her fault! It was Xue Fei's fault!
Why did she have to get pregnant with Mo Baixing's child?!
How sure are you that he didn't lie to you?!
Seventh Prince left the capital city in April.
That wicked woman was pregnant at the end of June.
Tell me. What other evidence do I need?
My husband knelt in front of me
and begged me to allow him to take her as his concubine.
Tell me. What other evidence do you think I still need?!
Looks like, I'm really not the daughter of Seventh Prince.
Then, Chen Yu and I are not biological siblings.
So, Eldest Brother and I...
are the real siblings.
Dream on, you bitch! I won't let you become Yishan's younger sister.
I will also not let you walk out of this door. Uncle Mo!
Grab her!
Let go of me! Let go of me!
Godmother! Godmother!
If you really kill me,
Eldest Brother will hate you!
Yishan is dying.
Do you think I will allow the daughter of that wicked woman
remain in this world to enjoy all the great wealth and high position?
Stop dreaming! I will never allow you to remind me of the existence of that wicked woman!
- Help! - Do you know that
during the first day I saw you in Mo Manor,
I wanted to dig your eyes out so bad?
I pray every night
on the day of your death.
Help!
All right, stop yelling.
After drinking this soup, there won't be a tomorrow for you.
Drink it.
Young Lord, you turned the flow of your vital channels and forced yourself to spit blood.
This underhanded trick has really deceived all the doctors in the capital.
If I hadn't been treating people from every corner of the country,
I would really think you got some strange poison in you.
Brother Lin is indeed skillful in the field of medicine. I couldn't lie to you.
But it's okay if you know. You are almost one of us,
so I trust you.
It's my honor to be trusted by you.
You just need to take medicines for three days, and your inner injuries will be cured.
But why lie to the madam?
The bidding is tomorrow.
I asked my mother to represent me.
If she knows that I'm okay, others can tell.
I had to lie to her.
Young Lord Mo did this act for...
Brother Lin, I might need to go out for a bit. I hope you can cover for me.
If someone asked to see me,
just say that I need to rest and can't be disturbed.
- Just turn them away. - Okay.
There aren't any guards here, right?
Don't worry, Young Master.
I didn't assign any guards here.
Jiansheng,
have someone keep watching Lin Yiquan. If he makes any unusual moves,
kill him.
Yes.
It's Uncle Mo.
I am not the Seventh Prince's daughter.
I'm not his daughter.
I am not Chen Yu's sister.
I was born on the 4th month of the year of Yihai.
Brother Lotus Robe Knight, we are not brother and sister.
You can like me now.
Buqi!
Buqi! Buqi!
Buqi! Buqi! Buqi!
Brother Lin, save her!
What happened?
Save her!
What is going on?
I was arranging things
when I passed by Buqi's room and saw a man dressed in black
exiting from her room.
I went in to see, and found her weakly breathing this.
This is such strong poison.
If you were late for a minute, you would have found her dead body.
Can she be cured or not?
I am afraid that even if there is an antidote, it would be too late.
The silver needle can only protect her last breath in her chest.
I fear that in a couple of hours,
that breath will disappear, too.

Poison again.
It must be from people who were targeting me.
It must be the people who were targeting me who poisoned Buqi,
right?!
Brother Lin,
I will send Buqi back to her room.
Just pretend that you've never treated her.
Okay.
Buqi,
I know that my mom was the one who killed you.
But she is my mom.
The bidding is tomorrow.
I have my plan.
I can't let the Seventh Prince know that
my mom killed you.
This...
This is your favorite bunny lantern.
I will burn you one...
burn you one every year.
Eldest Brother,
I am fine.
This is great.
Eldest Brother,
you are okay.
It's great.
Buqi,
I am sorry.
I shouldn't have... brought you to the capital.
Maybe you could...
you could still be a happy beggar in Xizhou now.
You could still be a happy person.
It was my fault! It was my fault!
I am sorry!
Young Master, this is every record about Biluotian you asked for.
Young Master,
just now, I heard that guards where saying something happened in Mo Manor.
What happened?
Mo Ruofei has been poisoned
and he's dying. They said that he only has three days to live.
What about Buqi? Is she okay?
She should be fine. If there is anything wrong with her,
Mo Manor would surely immediately report it to our manor.
Have they caught the person who poisoned him?
Not yet.
Let's go to Mo Manor and check.
Yu'er.
The Prince asked for you.
Teacher, I've heard that Mo Ruofei was poisoned.
I am afraid it will affect the bidding tomorrow.
I am going to Mo Manor and will be back soon.
Don't worry, Mo Ruofei is fine.
Come see the Prince with me.
Royal Father, did you ask for me
because of the bidding for the Imperial Treasury?
My son is smart.
It's exactly about that. Tomorrow,
you must hand the right to circulate government funds to the House of Zhu.
This is what Liu Mingyue and I agreed upon.
Royal Father and Liu Mingyue's agreement
would actually involve the House of Zhu.
Teacher was so sure about Mo Ruofei being okay earlier.
Then Mo Ruofei being poisoned
was also your strategy, right?
Royal Father,
I know that you want to use Mo Manor to fight against Liu Mingyue.
But there are many things I don't understand.
Please do tell.
I know you are impatient.
But don't worry.
Soon enough, I will tell you everything.
Why do we still have to wait?
Is it about Biluotian's treasure?
How were you able to guess
that it's related to Biluotian?
Mingyue Villa tried to kill Hua Buqi,
yet you were able to forgive Liu Mingyue.
I guessed that
it must be something more important than Hua Buqi.
Legend says that the one who has Biluotian runs the world.
Royal Father wants me to have the treasure
and fight for the imperial throne?
Yu'er,
since you guessed everything right,
I shall stop hiding it from you.
Liu Mingyue did use Biluotian as the condition, so I would forgive her.
And also hand the right to run the Imperial Treasury
to the House of Zhu.
I think that this deal is really worth it.
So tomorrow,
- just do what I say. - Royal Father,
I don't want the throne.
No matter if you want the throne or not,
we will discuss it after we find Biluotian's treasure.
Or else, whether you want the throne or not,
will all just be empty words.
Yu'er,
even though you don't want the throne,
you swill till have to hand the right to run the Imperial Treasury
to the House of Zhu tomorrow. Don't forget.
It was Liu Mingyue
who saved and woke me up.
Understood.
Your Highness!
Your Highness, my cousin has been poisoned.
It might be Mingyue Villa's people. Please help us.
No need to worry.
After the bidding tomorrow,
there will be an antidote given.
Go back to your manor.
Remember,
this matter cannot be known by others.
Young Master's Cousin, good morning!
I need to see my cousin.
Young Master's Cousin... Hey! Hey!
Young Master's Cousin, Young Master is currently being treated by the Lin siblings.
He can't be disturbed.
How is he doing right now?
Young Lord Lin has said
that he only has three days to live.
I think Prince had expected Cousin to be hurt.
You are my cousin's most trusted man. You should know what has happened, right?
Young Master's Cousin, to be honest,
I am only a servant. What do I know?
How about this? You...
come back later to see him.
Understood.
I will come back after the bidding.
Young Master's Cousin, take care!
Be careful on your way!

Xiuchun.
Buqi! Xiuchun!
Are you both still asleep?
Buqi!
What's wrong?
Why is this happening?
Xiuchun! Xiuchun!
Buqi has been poisoned!
Where are you?
I will go find everyone.
Don't go.
I am incurable.
Stop saying that!
The one who did this told me.
Cousin Yun,
I am really incurable.
Don't say things like that.
Sister Buqi, tell me.
Who did this to you? I will go find him and get the antidote.
If he doesn't give it to me, I will beat him until he does.
Cousin Yun,
you can't hit her.
You know this person?
Actually,
I am quite happy right now.
Are... Are you okay?
Thief,
don't run.
I'm not leaving you. I'm not running away.
I know how you feel,
but I have someone else in my heart.
Before I met him,
I've already been admiring him.
And then,
he saved me many times.
If it wasn't for him,
I wouldn't be alive until now.
I only have room for him
in my heart.
You don't have to say anything.
As long as you live,
you can love anyone.
I will go find the Lotus Robe Knight for you now.
You can't find him.
He will only show up when there is no one around.
He would talk to me
secretly.
It would be great if I could marry him.
Wearing a red wedding dress.
Wouldn't that be amazing?
Don't worry,
I will find him for you.
If you want her to live, hand her to me now.
Who are you?
Cousin Yun,
she is here to save me.
Just believe her.
Okay.
This is the antidote?
How are you doing?
What did you feed her?!
You said you can save her! How come she's now dead?!
Young Master!
Young Master! She is not dead!
- Calm down and let me explain! - Stop with your nonsense!
I fed her the Death Faking Pill.
The Death Faking Pill can stop the spreading of the poison.
- Death Faking Pill? - The Death Faking Pill can only last seven days.
She has to be woken within seven days.
Or else, she will really be dead.
Young Master, her identity is very special.
If someone knows that she is not dead today,
she will have a more miserable life in the capital.
I need to secretly take her away from here to clear the poison.
Why?
Do you know how big of an impact it will be
to Mo Manor if the Seventh Prince knows about her death?
Who are you?
Why didn't you show up sooner if you could save her?!
Young Master, this case is complicated, and it's hard to explain it to you.
If you really care about her, then remember what I said.
Bury her as soon as possible, and I will take her away.
