Nine-Part Rhyme by Ye Xuan Qing
♫ Time is like a shuttle which just passed by but comes back right away ♫
♫ Feeling is like silk that we're unaware of how entangled it has been ♫
♫ Weave a piece of glamorous ornamentation with both of our deep loves ♫
♫ It's hard to entrust this love-sickness to someone ♫
♫ I'm willing to become that extremely hopeful bluestone ♫
♫ with your name seal carved into my heart ♫
♫ Turn back to be a butterfly inside a sealed cocoon to weave spring silk ♫
♫ Which cannot be cut but is mingled forever and ever ♫

Episode 5
Xiao Tan you finally returned. How was it?
It was so bad! I almost lost my own life.
I can't go back!
Heaven! What sins have I committed that you must punish me like this?!
Xiao Tan you don't have to be that upset. We can think of another idea.
Jing Xin! I'm already depressed!

Xiao Tan, listen to me. I heard that
old bed was something that the Prince has lived with in the past.
Also, it has medicinal abilities!
I also heard that...
I also heard that the bed was made by an old carpenter outside of the city!
A carpenter?
- An old carpenter? - Yes!
We can start with the old carpenter! Maybe we'll find some clues!
Jing Xin! Go search for the old carpenter's whereabouts tomorrow! Got it?
I do think that sometimes the Princess Consort is really odd.
- Continue. - Sometimes the Princess Consort acts like a noble lady.
Sometimes she is very energetic and says a lot of things that can't be understood.
You sissy! You sure talk a lot of nonsense!
Are you crazy? I just don't understand why you want to kill me so badly.
One of the Princess Consort's maid servants says that
the Princess Consort likes to wear soft colored traditional clothing.
But another maid servant says
the Princess Consort likes wearing bright colored clothing and the style is...
What?
A bit revealing...
I don't need you anymore. You may go.
Yes. I will take my leave.
Which one is her true personality?
Just what is this Zhen Huan Pearl?
Could it be it's really like what Lie Ming said, that it is being hidden here in the Palace?
Drinking cups of wine flowing down winding water canals yet still not getting drunk.
This is Royal Grandfather's handwriting.
What does this poem mean?
Could it have to do with the supposed Zhen Huan Pearl?
8th Brother, my sister-in-law has stayed in her place.
Not really. Yesterday, she snuck into my room.
What? Could she really be a spy from Qu Zhao Ying and First Brother?
It might not be.
Xiao Xuan, there's a good show to watch today.
The 8th Princess Consort arrives.
See, today's main actress is here.
Your Highness! I'm here!
I'm finally seeing my legendary 8th Sister-in-law! I am 14th Prince, Mo Jing Xuan.
You can call me Fourteen.
So you're Fourteen? I didn't think you'd be so young!
You're very handsome.
It looks like the quality of the Royal family is quite good!
How many young ladies' hearts will probably be broken by you?
Fourteen! Come play with me when you're free!
Your Highness, have I interrupted you with my sudden arrival?
You are worrying too much. 8th Brother was just saying that you are no ordinary woman.
After seeing you today, it is just like the rumors have said.
Fourteen, you praised me wrongly... (but she said it as liao zan)
Miss...
it should be 'miu zan'.
Um... Fourteen, you are too polite!
I'm not that different from any other women. I'm the same.
Oh yeah.
Your Highness, I brought you breakfast! Eat it while it's hot!
Understood.
What? Do you have anything else you want to say?
I just wanted to ask... I came to serve you,
so you can spare Jing Xin. Do those words still count for anything?
I never go back on my word.
That's great! Then I won't bother you. I'll leave first!
Stop.
Grind ink for me.
Yes.
Madam Yun and Madam Yi have arrived!
Greetings, Your Highness.
Aiya, you should let me grind the ink.
- Thank you. - Let me do it instead.
Let me do this kind of stuff myself!
What is your name?
Your Highness, I am Jing Xin.
Then shouldn't you go help your mistress?
Do not worry, my Miss will deal with it.
- My hand! - My face!
Aiya, it was alright a minute ago. Why did the ink flip over?
You! You did it on purpose to make us look bad!
That's right. You did it on purpose!
Who did what on purpose? Stop looking for trouble!
- Your Highness, look at my face! - Oh shut up!
- You're not even disciplining her. Look at what she did! - Discipline who?
Will you three only quiet down if I kick you out?
It looks like I've been too lenient on all of you! It's time to teach you a lesson!
Today, you all have to copy the family rules!
Royal Command Token is in Mo Lian Cheng's room.
You both may leave first. Next time be careful with your actions.
- Yes. - Yes.
Jing Xuan. Go take a look at how the 8th Princess Consort is doing.
8th brother, only 2 columns are written.
Let me see it.
The Mo Family House Rules.
I was wondering why you wanted me to copy family rules! So you were suspecting me?
How many times have I told you, I'm not a spy! I didn't send any information!
Why don't you believe me?
You're insulting me!
How can I write this?
I'll be a witness. 8th Sister-in-law's handwriting is indeed a thing of its own.
I don't care! You must compensate for my psychological damage!
What happens if I say no?
No?! Then I'll go file a complaint. I am being treated with an injustice worse than Dou E. (Tragic play about a wrongly accused young widow)
By name, I may be the 8th Princess Consort. But in reality, I'm being guarded by him every day!
I don't feel secure at all!
Fine. Then what do you want?
I want your bed.
Why are you so interested in my bed?
Actually, it's nothing. I just think it looks nice.
Alright. I promise you.
Really? Then you can't regret it.
I never go back on my word.
Alright then. If there's nothing else,
I will leave first.
Yu Hao.
Your Highness.
Are you sure the person who wrote the message was the 8th Princess Consort?
That day I didn't get to see the face.
I decided based on the clothing and body shape.
I went and checked later. There is indeed a brick that can be used to communicate with outsiders.
But these characters don't look like they are written by the same person.
Fourteen, what do you think?
Looking at the secret letter, 8th Sister-in-law definitely didn't write it.
Actually, I don't think she's that complicated. In truth, she's quite interesting.
You only met her once.
Yu Hao.
Do you think the 8th Princess Consort is very odd?
One moment she's demure and gentle, but then she's like a different person in the next moment.
And says things that can't be understood?
Could the rumors be true? The Princess Consort has gone mad?
I don't think so, unless she is pretending.
Or... there is still some hidden story behind this.
King Father, please take the Royal Command Token back.
Your Royal Grandfather gave it to you.
Why are you suddenly asking me to take it back?
King Father, an assassin came into my manor again.
And he came for this royal token again. I can't put up with it anymore.
Please take it back, King Father!
King Father, this token can command the army! It's so important!
No commoner would have any use for it!
I believe that this assassin is from our royal family!
Eight Older Brother already found out that the assassin is the top assassin of the Blood Seal Sect.
The coincidence is, First Royal Brother's recent favorite guard
has some dealings with people from the Blood Seal Sect.
Fourteen, you must not talk nonsense.
How could he be from Royal Brother's place?
King Father, I no longer wish to pursue the matter.
I just wish that you will take the Royal Command Token back.
King Father, this is no small matter! Please investigate it clearly!
Enough!
I will investigate the assassin.
But I have no right to take back the Royal Command Token.
Cheng'er, take good care of it for me.
I am tired. You may all go.
We take our leave.
8th Little Brother, I don't need to leave my manor since you already have so many scouts around informing you of things.
I am quite impressed.
In intelligence and strategy, how can I compare with you?
I only found out today that you have many friends from the dark side.
I really want to see what else you can do!
Royal Brother, if King Father is alerted of this, it would be bad!
[ Mu Xin ]
This one has Mu Xin embroidered on it. Could it be...
Be careful! Put it together well!
Hey!
- Be careful! - Be careful!
Be careful!
You must not break it!
The thing up there still hasn't been attached yet!
Hey! Be careful!
How come the handwriting here is very similar to that one the other day?
Jing Xin, who wrote this letter?
You can leave if you're done putting it together.
Get out, get out, all of you get out!
Whose letter is this, whose letter is this?
Isn't this the letter you wrote before?
I wrote it? What a joke! When did I ever write a letter?
You clearly wrote a lot of letters like this to the First Prince before!
How could I dare lie to you about that?
The First Prince?
Huh?
Jing Xin.
Are both these sets for me?
Did I start acting strange a month ago?
Ever since a month ago when the First Prince was wed
and after you attempted suicide by running into the wall, you completely changed!
All the maids and servants say
that you might have gone crazy.
Gone crazy?
Jing Xin, do you feel like sometimes, your Miss is your Miss,
but a bit later, she has completely changed?
Yes! That's how it is!
That's why I always forget things!
I haven't gone crazy! I'm not schizophrenic either!
The real Qu Tan'er is still here!
My God! This is too ridiculous!
It's not easy for me to be finally trendy and travel back in time,
but I encounter a computer bug. I'm so unlucky.
Xiao Tan, just what are you saying? What "my Miss"?
I don't understand what you're saying!
I finally understand!
It turns out,
I am using the same body as your Miss!
That means, I came from that time period
and then occupied your Miss's body!
So, we take turns appearing!
Jing Xin, do you understand?
I don't!
Xiao Tan, what's wrong?
You... aren't... possessed, are you?
What nonsense!
Forget it, you won't understand anyway!
Aiya!
Write a letter!
That's right! Let's write a letter to your Miss!
Let's go!
Miss, this is the letter Xiao Tan told me to give you.
Did she tell you anything?
She said, you'll 'get it' as soon as you look!
"Miss Qu Tan'er."
"Let me introduce myself."
I... came from another something world...
"There, I am a... real... estate... agent."
"That is... something... house..."
Jing Xin. Why don't I understand a lot of these characters?
Where do these words come from?
Miss, how about you let me explain?
When Xiao Tan wrote this letter, she read it out loud. I remember it.
"Miss Qu Tan'er... hello."
"Let me introduce myself. I am from a different world."
"There, I am a real estate agent."
She sells houses.
"My personality is a bit..."
"A bit..."
"like a tomboy!"
What is a tomboy?
That is... a woman's man.
That means... she is married. It means she has a man!
Then she must miss her husband a lot.
That should be right.
"Right now, I am still a single dog." (Slang meaning she's single)
A single dog is...
It's a dog that she keeps in that other world that only has a body
but doesn't have four legs!
She is so kind.
Her personality is a bit more loud. She likes long legged 'oppa'.
Long legged oppa? (Korean term for older men)
Oppa is...
It's a very long legged snack!
It's said that the longer their legs, the better they taste!
They believe in such things in her world.
She also said that her dream is to marry a man with a six pack,
handsome, rich, and is a celebrity!
Celebrity? (da ming xing - big star)
She's talking about the stars in the sky!
She says she doesn't know how she ended up in our Kingdom of Dong Yue.
She also occupies your body.
She really really wants to return to her world.
The only way is through Mo Lian--
It's through the Prince's antique bed.
She wants to know if you know
the secret of that antique bed
and the background of the craftsman who created that bed.
Miss, that's what she said.
[ Xiao Tan, I don't mind if you use my body.]
[ Instead, I made you suffer in my place.]
[ I am very regretful.]
[ As for the antique bed you spoke of, ]
[ I will surely help you ask about it. Hope I can use my meager strength ]
[ to help you return to your world. ]
[ At the same time, I must remind you. You must not let others find out ]
[ that we are using the same body. ]
[ Or else, you might be locked up as a madwoman. ]
[ At the worst, you'll be treated as a witch and burnt to death. ]
Jing Xin.
Give this to Xiao Tan. About the things that happened these past few days,
I'm sure that you already know about them.
Let me be direct with you.
Now, there is a girl using the same body as me.
But, you must keep it a secret.
Xiao Tan is rash. You must always remind her
not to do any reckless things
that raise peoples' suspicion.
May Miss not worry. I surely will keep my mouth tightly shut about this.
Big Brother Lian Cheng!
Princess, the Prince has ordered that he must not be disturbed--
Move aside! You bastard, you dare to block me?
Hurry and let go of me!
Don't forget. You are my Princess Consort now.
Big Brother Lian Cheng!
What is it?
Do you not welcome me?
Why wouldn't he? He just praised you last night.
He said you are as beautiful as a flower, and whoever marries you,
it'll be his fortune earned from his previous life!
Really?
Of course! Why would I lie to you?
Big Brother Lian Cheng, why don't you marry me too?
Qing Yun, I'm not the person you should choose.
No! Look, one is handsome and cool.
The other is as beautiful as a flower. You two are a match made in heaven,
a perfect pair! A perfect pair.
Princess Consort, I have a special present to give you.
Perhaps it'll be something you like.
Could it have to do with the antique bed?
Do you want it?
If you want it, then put on a good show with me.
Your Highness!
Qing Yun, you can see it for yourself.
I am very in love with my wife. My heart has no room for anyone else.
Beloved, you were very mischievous yesterday.
Huh?
Aiya, Your Highness! Princess Qing Yun is still here.
That's alright. I'm talking with the one I like.
Whoever is willing to listen, let them listen all they want.
Big Brother Lian Cheng, I will marry you one day!
Wow! I didn't imagine he'd have such a good body!
Are you done touching me?
The show is over. Give me my present.
This is the Royal Command Token. The previous King gave it to me.
I'll let you take care of it now.
Royal Command Token? You weren't talking about the antique bed?
What? You don't want it?
Forget it! At least, it's a piece of gold!
Thank you, Your Highness. I'll be leaving now!
Yu Hao.
Here!
Starting from right now, keep an eye on the Princess Consort!
Yes!
What is this thing?
Just when can I go back?
Xiao Tan, it's late. It's time to get ready to retire.
What time is it?
It's already around the first night watch period. The sky outside is already dark. (9 -11 pm)
No way. It's like this again.
You ancient people sleep as soon as night falls?
Don't you have a nightlife at all?
What is nightlife?
Nightlife is karaoke, drinking wine, and prowling Sanlitun. ( Sanlitun - a popular nightlife Beijing street)
Forget it, you won't understand anyway.
Drink wine... Sanlitun?
Hey! Come here!
Jing Xin?
Jing Xin!
Jing Xin?
Miss.
Just what did Xiao Tan do last night?
I...
I don't know.
You don't know?
Are you going to tell me or not?
If you don't tell me,
I'll send you home tomorrow.
Don't stay with me anymore.
No, no, Miss, I'll tell you! I will! I will!
Mistress, last night, Xiao Tan insisted on having some... nightlife.
She secretly ran to the kitchen and took two jugs of wine.
She got drunk... and threw up too.
Jing Xin.
Help me wash up.
Yes, Miss.
The Royal Command Token?
Jing Xin.
Why is this here?
The Prince gave it to Xiao Tan yesterday.
He said he wanted Xiao Tan to temporarily take care of it.
