[ I Will Never Let You Go ]
[ Episode 8 ]
I can't I can't.
The estate is so big. I'm getting hungry just from the walking.
How about...I will go find you something to eat?
Let's go to the kitchen.
Ok ok.
Follow me this way, miss.
This way, miss.
Miss.
So fresh!
I can escape this way.
Miss.
Thank you.
-Excuse me. -Careful.
Now that I am at the Mo Manor,
I finally feel the festivity of the New Year.
If you go see the lanterns on the Lantern Festival,
there will be many people.
-There will be lanterns in the capital? -Yes.
Can I go outside and see?
There will be lanterns.
Every year, the four families will compete and see who has the best looking lanterns.
The Mo Mano will also build a lantern tower and go compete.
The young master go see the lantern with madam every year.
You can definitely go as well, miss.
So you are saying,
-I can go outside with big brother on the Lantern Festival. -Yes.
I haven't seen big brother for a while.
What has he been up to?
It's almost the end of the year. He is busy.
But he is always there on New Year's Eve.
It's almost New Year's Eve.
Careful!
Miss, you are so good at this.
Second Miss.
-Uncle Mo. -You are in such a good mood.
This is...
The madam feels bad for your suffering out there all these years, so she especially ordered the kitchen staff
to make you some soup every day, to get you healthier.
So here I am, bringing this to you. Eat it while it's still hot.
She is so good to me.
-Be careful, miss. -Ooooh, it's so hot!
It's too hot!
I just sweat all over. I can't eat something this hot.
Or I will throw up whatever I eat.
And the soup will go to waste.
It's just some small problems I got from begging on the streets.
Back then, I was always hungry,
and got my guts messed up.
How about this?
I promise I will drink the soup.
Ok.
Come on, Xiuchun. We haven't come up with a winner yet.
(Mingyue)
The Zhu Manor from the South and I have reached an agreement on our collaboration.
This time,
we will help the Zhu Manor to win the bidding of the rights for running government money on this official bidding.
Their biggest competitor is the Mo Manor.
Qingyan, find a way to sneak in the Mo Manor
and take care of Hua Buqi and Mo Ruofei.
Once Mo Ruofei dies, the Mo Manor will lose its spine.
This way, they will be in panic on this bidding.
If Hua Buqi also dies,
the Seventh Prince will blame the Mo Manor.
By that time,
we don't even have to fight against the Mo Manor.
It seems that just by killing Hua Buqi, we can mess up Zhu and Mo.
Why help Zhu to get the right to run government money
and make so much effort to sneak in the Mo Manor to kill Mo Ruofei?
I also want to just kill this girl.,
but the master is already suspecting us for trying to kill Hua Buqi.
We can't be careless now.
It's best if we can't find someone else to kill her.
Yes, master.
Qingyan will definitely complete the misson.
Unlike sister, who let them go outside of the Tianmen Gate.
Master, killing them as always been my mission. Just let me do it.
I promise I will complete the task this time.
No need.
I have other things for you to do.
Yaoling has been disobeying.
They are only pretending to obey us,
but they are ganging up with Mo behind us.
Qingwu, go to Yaoling
and kill all the Lin family.
After you taking over Yaoling,
go back to the capital at once.
I will have you do something else on the Lantern's Festival.
What will I need to do on the Lantern's Festival?
Once you finish your first task, I will let you know.
QIngwu, don't let me down again.
Don't worry, master.
I promise not to disappoint you this time.
Leave me.
Yes.
I heard that you will be working with Zhu.
Isn't the Zhu Manor supposed to pay you back?
If the Eighth Lord of Zhu get the rights of running government money,
you can force him to use the government money to pay back your debt.
Once he use the government money,
Mingyue will start a bank run.
By that time, not only you can get your money,
but also mess up the stupid emperor's economy
and create chaos. It's one stone for two birds.
You are such a genius on economy.
With your help is like having an army of thousands.
With what you just said,
I can die for you. As long as I'm helping.
Are you really helping me?
I asked you to find Xue Fei's daughter.
Why did you try to kill her?
Says who?
Wasn't you who set up an ambush outside of the Tianmen Gate?
It was coincident.
Qingwu was going to kill Mo Ruofei.
Who knew that Xue Fei's daughter was also there.
It was because of her,
Qingwu failed the attempt.
Don't worry,
I've already sent Qingyan to the Mo Manor to take Xue Fei's daughter out.
No need.
I will deal with it.
Just take care of the rights of running government money.
I will go to the North King's birthday party.
Master.
The North King attacks the central plain every year.
He is the sworn enemy of the stupid emperor.
Everyone knows about his ego.
Working with this egomaniac, wouldn't it be dangerous?
As long as he is useful,
he will be used by me.
-Miss. -It's time to freshen up.
I forgot to drink the soup.
If the madam know, she will definitely say something.
I can't waste it.
Forget it, miss.
It's cold and it been here over night.
You can't drink it.
How about this? I will dump it.
Uncle Mo wouldn't know, the madam wouldn't found out either.
Wait...
Xiuchun, I craving the date and walnut cake from Ding's.
How about you go buy some for me.
I will deal with the soup.
Ok. I will do that for you, miss.
You are here.
I am here to give the bowl back.
The soup was nice. Is there anything else to eat?
Yup. This is the Chinese yum cake fresh out of the oven.
I want this, this and this.
-Ok ok. I will leave you to it. -Ok.
-Xiaosi, are you busy? -Here.
I am here, Uncle Mo.
He is new here. Find something for him to do in the kitchen.
Got it. I will take them to change.
Ok. Follow me.
By the way, is miss's soup ready?
It's finished. It's finished.
Ok. Leave it with me.
Wait, take this.
What is Uncle Mo putting in the soup?
Is he adding poison into it?
That's not right. Mo Ruofei put his life in danger to save me at Tian Men Pass.
The Seventh Prince left me here.
My survival has to do with Mo Manor's fate. They have no reason to harm me!
Could it be...he was bribed by those black clad people?
No, no, my life is more important!
I must investigate clearly!
Uncle Mo!
Miss.
What is the soup today?
Today?
This is the lotus seed and red date soup. It's very good.
-Wow! -What is it?
You're out of breath.
I was just bored, so I played with the shuttlecock for a while.
And it flew into the pond.
I'll go get it later.
It's ok.
How about drink it later?
There's no need!
I'm thirsty now! I'll drink it now!
It's not hot today!
Wow!
Uncle Mo, after I finish it, I'll have Xiu Chun return the bowl to the kitchen.
I won't trouble you with such small matters.
Is that so?
Alright. Then drink slowly.
-Okay. -I'll leave first.
-Goodbye Uncle Mo! -Drink it.
It's so sweet!
Timing and Subtitles brought to you by Stay With Me Team @ viki
What did Uncle Mo put in the soup?
Brother Lotus Robe Knight told me to stay here at ease.
But it seems like this place is dangerous too!
It seems that I have to escape on the Lantern Festival.
What are you thinking about?
B-b-b-big Brother?
Why did you come?
Weren't you busy with the Lantern Festival?
Xiu Chun told me you wish for my return every day
to take your to see the lanterns. Now that I'm back. Aren't you happy to see me?
-I'm happy! Of course I'm happy! -Let's go inside.
I'll show you something good! Come come come.
Bring it inside!
B-b-big Brother, this is...?
It is New Year's eve tomorrow. These are my new year's gifts for you!
All of this?
Let me show you. This is the outfit made by the Silk House.
These are the sets of jewelry custom made for you by Jinyu.
There is blush too.
T-this...!
There's so many! I can't use all of it!
And this blush...
Why are there so many colors?
Because I don't know what color you like, so I bought them all!
-You bought them all? -Yes.
But they all look the same! They're all red!
Hey.
How could these be the same?
These are dark red, pink, peach, blush and rhododentron red.
Each of them are different!
Let me try it for you. Look at this.
And this, and this.
Isn't every color
different? Look at them.
You have to try all of them. Smell this.
Even the smells are different.
Aren't they?
-They really are different. -Right?
Wow, so fancy.
When I was young, I was only playing with mud.
I know less makeup
than you.
Go have her try those makeup.
Let's go try them on.
Right, big brother.
Ever since I moved to the Mo Manor, Uncle Mo has been taking good care of me.
It's almost new year. I want to buy something for him.
With your knowledge of him, what gift should I buy him?
That's a tough question for me.
Everything he needs he gets from the manor
and he never goes out. He also doesn't really have a hobby.
Buying him something
is something I wouldn't know.
So has he been in the manor since he was young?
No.
He is mother's bodyguard she brought with her from Feiyun.
He is the most loyal to mother.
Sometimes, I will have to go through mother to give him orders.
Miss, this is the walnut cake.
-Young master. -Awesome.
Big brother, have one.
I am okay. Buqi,
which one do you think is prettier? I think they are both very nice.
Look.
Big brother.
What?
Does the madam know my mother?
She said that I look like my mother.
How was their relationship?
I don't know much about the last generation.
Mother never told me.
Why ask all of sudden?
Nothing.
I'm just wondering what kind of person my mother was.
You can ask the Seventh Prince when he is here.
Right, Buqi.
I just got back, and I haven't greeted my mother. I have to go see her.
Have Xiuchun pick out something with you, how about that?
Ok.
Then I am going to leave you to it.
Ok.
Xiuchun, take care of her.
See you soon, young master.
Big brother's expression
when he looked at me didn't seem like he was pretending. He does care about me.
But how do I bring up the thing about Uncle Mo?
Will he believe me?
Don't say that madam wants to kill me.
Yishan.
Mother.
How are you these days?
You and Uncle Mo have been taking care of the big stuff of the manor.
I've just been a good Buddhist.
I haven't been busy.
I've been great.
Then...how are you and Buqi?
She has a free spirit and cannot be restricted.
I even canceled her morning prayer.
I haven't seen her for a while.
Mother,
Buqi staying with us is an opportunity,
but also a potential risk.
I hope that mother can help me take this opportunity.
And make the Mo Manor successful.
Don't worry.
I know.
It's not clean enough.
Careful.
-Miss. -Xiuchun.
I need to ask you something. Do you know the master?
No, I don't. The master has passed away before I started working here.
I see. Have you heard things about him?
Miss, I am only telling you. Don't tell anyone else about this.
Don't worry. I the best at keeping secrets.
I heard that he was died of anger.
Anger?
I heard that the master wanted to have a concubine, but the madam wouldn't allow it.
And then the woman died.
The master spent his day looking at her portrait, because he missed her.
He even built the Lingbo Building for her.
The madam could not take it,
so she tore up the portrait.
And then, the master died because of the anger.
Who was the woman?
I don't know about that.
But her family name was definitely Xue. The manor has an unspoken rule: never hire someone with Xue as his family name.
Ok ok. I understand.
-Go do your thing. -Yes.
Crap.
It seems that Uncle Mo did put poison in the soup.
So I am the daughter of madam's enemy.
Master Mo, you were really something.
You had the guts to fight over a woman with the Seventh Prince.
Weren't you worry that the Seventh Prince will confiscate the Mo Manor?
You've asked for me, First Miss?
You think that Mingyue doesn't know that
you ganged up with Mo Ruofei?
Mingyue,
you burn the bridge after using it.
Killing me,
will not get you
Yaoling.
I will take over Yaoling alright.
Father.
-Father! -Run! You two, run! -Father!
-If you get caught by the Mingyue people, we are through!
Go!
-You want to run? Kill them! -Father! -Stop it.
Master.
I have other use for these two. Leave us.
-Yes. -Yes.
Sister...
Sister.
Do you want to live?
We do.
As long as you don't kill us
we will do anything.
It was was you guys who handed Hua Buqi to Mo Ruofei.
Now that the Seventh Prince handed Hua Buqi to the Mo Manor.
It's just eh right time for you two to be spies for me.
I want you to get into the Mo Manor and keep an eye on Hua Buqi.
And to protect her from any harm.
Once the time is right,
I have have people get you two out.
Ok, I will do it.
I will go into the Mo Manor and keep an eye on her for you.
She is not saying anything. Does she not want to do it?
Sister, sister! She will.
You will do it, sister.
Every three month, I will send someone to bring you the antidote.
Do not try to do it yourself.
With your abilities, you can't cure yourselves.
Once it's all done,
I will bring the antidote to you.
Understood?
Understood.
I finally have found the Saintess.
If I can find the other half of the map,
I can enter Biluotian.
I can get the treasure of Biluotian.
Master, may I go in the Mo Manor and bring the Saintess back to the Ghost Valley?
It's no hurry.
Bringing her back to the Ghost Valley now
will probably expose her identity to her, and she will resist with her life.
Not that no matter she is in the Prince's manor or the Mo Manor,
she would be safe.
Once I found the other half of the map,
I will bring her back.
Yes.
See how pretty this is.
Isn't is pretty?
Timing and Subtitles brought to you by Stay With Me Team @ viki
What's happening?
Your Highness,
this is the emergency message from Han Ye.
Yaoling's owner died all of sudden.
The reason of death is very odd.
Also, Lin Yuquan and Lin Dansha are missing.
-All of sudden? -Yes.
Would Lin's death has something to do with Hua Buqi?
Xiao Liu,
send Han Ye to investigate Lin's people.
Lin died all of sudden.
People in Yaolin must be in panic.
Maybe we can get something out of them.
Your Highness, Imperial Concubine Gan has prepared the New Year's Eve Feast.
Please come attend the dinner.
Is father there?
I am on my way to inform him.
Go ahead. I will be in the hall.
Yes.
Wait.
I will go.
Yes.
Having her staying in the Mo Manor worries me.
I have to think of a way
to get her back to the manor.
I have to think of a way.
Yes.
Since father wants the daughter so bad,
how about have your New Year's Eve dinner at the Mo Manor?
If you go now, you might catch it on time.
How talks like this to his father?
Father.
I thought a father like you only thinks about the daughter out of wedlock.
And never thinks about me, the son.
You...
Yu'er,
his Highness thinks about the family
is only human nature. Don't think too much of it.
I was here for the New Year's Eve dinner with father,
but it doesn't seem necessary.
I can't stomach this dinner anyways.
It's better if I go out and enjoy some quietness.
Yu'er, stop.
Where are you going instead of having dinner with the family on New Year's Eve?
Yu'er!
Second Miss.
Second Miss,
we've done changing.
They are just setting up the fireworks.
I've done my research.
Every year, it was Mo Ruofei lighting up the fireworks and say the prayers.
Put the hidden weapons in the fireworks.
Tonight, I will definitely kill Mo Ruofei.
Yes.
Good. All the dishes are here.
Let's eat.
Yes, mother.
Buqi,
I thought you love meat.
Mother is a vegan.
Even when there are festivals, the manor staff don't cook meat.
This is your first time spending New Year in the manor.
These meat are for you.
I never have seen those fancy food before.
I've been eating those since the day I moved in.
I've gotten tired of them.
I am a vegan, too, just for today.
But I am happy.
Then, have you gotten used to living here?
Spending your New Year's Eve here especially.
Of course.
New Year used to be the happiest time when I was spending it with the Ninth Uncle.
Bach when,
no matter which household we went to, they offered us lots of meat.
That wasn't something we get to eat often.
Unlike here. I am getting tired of them.
But I am happy.
I'm glad you are happy.
I've told you this on your way to the capital,
we have all the fancy food there is. Whatever you want to eat, I can get it for you.
But remember, everything has to be chewed slowly. Enjoy.
These chicken legs are not even edible.
Might as well not be here.
Both of you are only eating vegan food today.
Who knows if someone has poisoned the chicken legs.
Buqi, stop thinking about when you were on the streets.
Today is the most blessed day.
Later, go light the fireworks.
You will be the lucky one this year.
The lucky one?
You are confusing me, godmother.
You will see.
Hurry, get the ladder here.
Be careful.
Careful, careful!
Good good good. Put some of it here.
Here and here.
Over there. Be careful.
Hurry.
-To the left. It's too high. -Careful.
-Here? -Higher.
Good.
Ok,
Yishan,
you will be staying up with Buqi this year.
I am tired. Heading back to my room.
-Ok, mother. -Rest well, godmother.
Ok.
Be safe, mother.
Buqi, stop pretending.
-Pretending what? -Mother has left.
You don't have to worry her seeing you eat like a barbarian.
Let's eat! You haven't even touched the chicken legs. I saw you.
Delicious.
So big brother you were pretending, too!
I practice martial arts daily. How could these vegan food satisfy me?
I don't practice martial arts, and they still can't satisfy me.
Because you love meat.
I can't even eat those in mother's presence.
I could only eat those vegies.
I wouldn't dare to eat those meats.
Buqi, here.
Uncles eat.
Uncle is not hungry.
It's for you.
Uncle have it.
Big bite.
Buqi.
Buqi!
What's going on? Are you thinking about the past?
It's ok, big brother will be here for you.
Let's go light the fireworks and the firecrackers after you are done, how's that?
Ok.
I used to light firecrackers with the Ninth Uncle.
But we didn't have the money for it.
We always wait for others to light them, and I will go get those silent ones.
It's ok. This year, big brother will get you hundreds of strings.
You can light however many you want. How's that?
-Really? -Really!
Then let's eat fast and go light them.
These chicken legs are all for you.
-Isn't it pretty? -It's so pretty!
Big Brother,
godmother really is not coming to this scene?
Mother doesn't like crowds.
Mother never shows up for the fireworks on New Year's Eve.
Buqi, you will be lighting the firecrackers with me. How's that?
I'm too scared. You can light it.
Don't tell me you are afraid that the firecracker will stop the midway and people will blame you for bad luck.
Smart ass.
Ok, I will light it.
The sound of the firecracker will cleanse the bad omen. God bless the Mo Manor.
Hurry, hurry.
-So pretty. -Wow, so pretty.
It's so loud. Cover your ears.
Good!
Awesome!
Isn't it something?
♫ The look I'm waiting for isn't abstract ♫
♫ I am feeling your flow direction with my skin ♫
-You are bullying me! I'm not playing with you. ♫ I can't believe you can take away my sunshine ♫
-I'm sorry. Here is candy for you. Don't be mad at me. ♫ I continuously followed you and got excessive ♫
Let's go home.
Brother Lian Yi Ke, it's just that you've never seen someone like him. ♫ When you are around, the clouds descend ♫
If you saw him, you will slap the hack out of him! ♫ You roll up thousand layers of waves ♫
He had two pills, and he wouldn't share one with me. ♫ I run into it without hesitation ♫
He was creepy and stupid. ♫ Aren't you like the wind ♫
Brother Lian Yi Ke, compare to him, you are thousands of times better. ♫ Rustling as you intrude ♫
-Was I that unlikable? ♫ And then announce that good weather has returned ♫
♫ Like we've never been in love ♫
What? Buqi, the fireworks are done.
We will be praying for good luck on the Dragon Tower. Want to come with?
So pretty.
-That's so high. I can't possibly go up there. -I can take you.
This firework is everyone's favorite.
Mother said that you will be the one giving them the red pockets.
Don't try to hid it this time.
-Red pockets? -Yeah.
Don't be afraid. Let's go.
Brother brother brother, don't tell me you will
leave me here.
Don't be afraid. Let me tell you.
You just light the fireworks, the box on the bottom will explode.
All the money from the box will be flying.
This this your first time being the miss of the Mo Manor.
Also, after lighting it, just stand here
and don't move. Don't be afraid, after everyone thanks you, I will come up and get you.
This is the time for you to show your status in front of everyone, you know that?
Thank you, big brother.
Send the incense.
Awesome! Awesome!
Who knew we can kill two birds with one stone. Once the box explodes and the coins flying out,
there will be chaos
when killing Hua Buqi.
That way, I can kill Mo Ruofei.
Let's get your bonus.
Bonus! Money!
Miss, here! Here!
Right here.
Here! Here!
Big Miss!
Miss, miss! The bonus!
We are ready! Light it!
Big brother!
These are for you!
Buqi! Buqi!
-Buqi! -Miss.
-Buqi! -Young master.
-Miss!
-Xiuchun, get the doctor. -Yes!
Uncle Mo, send some more people to protect mother.
-Yes, young master. -Jian Sheng, bring some people to search the manor. Fast.
Yes! Come with me!
Buqi, the doctor will be here soon.
Young master.
-What did the doctor say? -Doctor said that miss was lucky that her bones weren't hurt.
It's just there are many wounds. Just have some meds,
she will be alright. Don't worry, young master.
-That's good to hear. Take good care of her. -Yes.
Who's there! Get out of there.
Young master.
Who are you?
I am Qing'er from the kitchen.
The kitchen? What are you doing here?
I saw Miss fell from there, so I tried to catch her.
I was worried about her, so I follow her here.
You have such beauty and bravery
as kitchen staff.
I think you are a spy in the manor!
Young master, I am not a spy!
I was only testing you. You just saved Miss.
I am going to reward you. Get up.
Thank you, young master.
Young master, I don't want any reward.
I just want Miss to be safe.
-Leave. -Yes.
-Mother. -How is Buqi?
Buqi is fine. Don't worry, go to bed.
It's cold outside. Don't get sick.
How could I sleep when she is badly injured like this? I will go take a good at her.
-Uncle Mo. -Young master.
What is going on with the manor?
The two guards of the back gate were killed. They probably entered through the back gate.
I've sent more people to be on guard.
But, they don't have anything special on them, so it's hard to know who they really are.
Do you think we should report this?
If someone did it on purpose, people will know that Buqi was attacked.
The prince will try to get involved. Let's send them to the officials for them to look into.
