Eternal Love of Dream
Episode 6
Isn't it Ji Heng?
Today His Majesty's wife-to-be will stay at Tai Chen Palace.
You can't screw it up.
You're here.
Please feel free to stay here.
How's that possible?
They weren't close at all
last time in Mount Fuyu.
I can't believe it.
It doesn't remember me.
You will have time to get closer
in Tai Chen Palace later.
Your Majesty,
I heard you are getting married.
Did I tell you to come in?
I told you so many times
to find a empress.
I guess I have said it like dozens of times.
You didn't listen to me at all.
What's gotten into you?
Why do you agree so easily this time?
I've heard so much that
Princess Ji Heng
is a rarely seen beauty in the demons.
Is there any beauty that Third Prince doesn't know about?
You are flattering me, Your Majesty.
Speaking of beauties,
for so many years,
you must have seen a great many of them.
Is she so reputed for her achievements in four arts
that you suddenly fall for her
and put an end to your bachelor life for over 100 thousand years?
Do you come all the way here today
for the gossip?
Well, nothing in particular.
Actually,
someone's birthday is coming.
I was thinking of...
Yes, it's Cheng Yu.
It's her birthday soon.
And recently,
she has fallen in love with collecting short knives.
So I drew a design of a short knife.
And I wonder if you can
make an unusual short knife for her.
What makes the short knife unusual is that
it's a short knife in close combat
and it becomes a long sword in long range combat.
When you're fighting with someone who outmatches you greatly,
it can release hidden weapons,
some silver needles that can stick the opponents down immediately.
When you're hunting,
it can transform into an iron bow.
Besides,
When you're cooking in the kitchen,
it can turn into a kitchen knife.
So it can be used as
a short knife, a long sword,
a hidden weapon, an iron bow and a kitchen knife.
Five in total.
That's right.
And it can be used in any occasions.
It's so useful that
Cheng Yu will definitely carry it with her
all the time.
That's what your plan is.
And I also think that
the short knife
can't be made with magic power.
It has to be made
with a new natural power.
So it can be creative enough
to convey
my particular feeling
for Lord Cheng Yu.
It's not a problem
for you, Third Prince.
You don't need help for that at all.
But the thing is
I'm usually good at making big weapons
with magic powers
like Bronze Ware of Demons.
It's a bit difficult for me
to make a small, delicate short knife.
So after thinking about it over and over again,
I can only turn to you for help, Your Majesty.
Only you can make something so complicated.
The design drawing
is exquisite over all.
But there are some rough places.
If it's dismantled,
traces will be left.
And wonderful workmanship
will not be achieved.
Thanks god
for giving me the opportunity to show my talent.
I admit that I do poorly in four arts,
but if I'm given the chance to revise the design,
I will prove to His Majesty that
I'm talented as well as Ji Heng.
And he will change the way he thinks of me.
I have to block it here,
in case Third Prince finds out
as he speaks.
I know you've been into
making ceramic.
The other day,
I found a place that is rich in
porcelain clay in the north desert owned by Xuan Ming
which gathers the best clay within Eight Deserts.
But Xuan Ming
guards it strictly.
If you make the short knife for me,
I will draw a map of the place for you.
If you go and ask him for the clay,
I'm sure he will give it to you.
How about I give you the materials for making the knife
and you forge it yourself?
You know I had a beef
with Xuan Ming.
Several years ago, I went for a dinner party in his mansion.
His concubine had her eyes on me
and wrote me love letters everyday.
He has been upset about it even until now.
I don't like to
owe anyone anything,
or use my statues to force anyone anything.
You go back
and change all the porcelain with gold and silver jade,
then leak the message that
you are allergic to porcelain clay.
The finer the porcelain is, the severe the allergy is.
You are having a birthday this year.
I think Xuan Ming will offer quite a few
fine porcelain to you.
And then you deliver it to me.
Is there any problem?
No problem. No problem.
That's a deal.
I'll leave you the design of the short knife
and I will bring the materials to you later.
Thanks, Your Majesty.
Quick learner.
I will go find materials for the short knife.
Are you coming with me?
The tea is so good.
His Majesty always feeds me so well.
If I were really a pet,
he must be a good owner.
What?
The ink brush?
Where?
Little fox,
I read about a passage of scripture which is so hard to understand.
But His Majesty is being so mobile that I can't find him easily.
Do you think I should leave him a note
and ask him about it later?
Greetings Your Majesty.
You added the two places, right?
Not bad.
What?
Not her.
I thought you only knew about reading.
That's so unexpected.
It's not easy to understand the design drawing from Lian Song.
Let alone finding the two places
to do final touches.
Your brother said that you had broad interests.
I'm really impressed today.
I...
Since you know about this
and you're interested in it,
I will open the furnace and start forging tomorrow.
Come help me.
It's my honor
to help Your Majesty
and learn something new.
But I'm clumsy with my hands.
I'm afraid to slow you down.
It's not a big deal as long as you're not dumb.
You start biting people now?
And it's your benefactor that you bit.
It's not my fault.
Ji Heng is a liar.
She didn't revise the picture.
I did.
Your Majesty.
You really treat me
as a pet.
Si Ming.
Lord.
I've found a good alcohol lately.
No wonder you're so happy.
What's this?
A design draft of a weapon for someone.
How crazy the designer is
to design
something so insane?
It's Third Prince who
wants to celebrate your birthday.
His Majesty was obviously protecting Ji Heng.
I had a conflict with Ji Heng.
But His Majesty chose to help her instead of me,
and snapped at me
indiscriminately.
I should have curled up far away.
But maybe at night His Majesty
will realize that he wronged me in the day
and come apologize to me.
What if he can't find me?
I'd better curl up a little closer.
Let's see if His Majesty is still here.
Has he ever come looking for me?
Why is Ji Heng in his room?
The long sword is kept as an iron box here.
And there are some needles in the box
to be used as hidden weapons.
Third Prince's design is very perfect.
But I've been trying to figure out
what the two ending places are for.
Teacher.
What is it?
I mean could you please stop your pen for a while
and give me some enlightenment.
You just need to copy the picture
from Third Prince.
But you can't even do the simple things well.
Looks like
I'm better than Ji Heng in this regard.
This is the only thing that I can do better than her.
But she takes it from me.
She can't even do the simple things well.
If His Majesty finds out,
I wonder if he will mock her with some harsh words.
This is a valve.
The sword will withdraw when the iron sheet is pushed aside.
Lian Song drew it too simple.
You got it?
Got it.
On those two places,
although Lian Song also drew simply,
the revision you did was good enough.
Actually these two places are less difficult than those two.
At noon,
the two places...
Perhaps it's my luck.
I used to
study alone.
I only know a little.
But I've learnt so much tonight from teacher, more than what I already know.
It's getting late.
I want to finish the drawing.
Teacher,
if I can finish the drawing,
can you give me the screen
as a prize?
Okay.
If you're tired,
go back and rest.
You can finish it tomorrow.
But
it will slow down your process.
And I was thinking about
finishing the drawing
and getting my reward.
One day is not a big deal.
As for the screen,
I will have Chong Lin deliver to you when it's done.
I remember when I did something stupid
or when Chong Lin did something
that His Majesty was not satisfied with,
he tended to
hurt our feelings.
But he doesn't hurt Ji Heng's feelings.
He is so kind to Ji Heng.
I didn't know His Majesty could be someone who satisfies other's request.
It's just that he never does that to me.
I heard that His Majesty never paints for anyone easily.
He is so nice to you, my princess.
I'm indebted to His Majesty.
Sooner or later, I will have to pay it back.
Teacher,
if we pulverize the crimson stone
and mix it with porcelain clay,
the flask could have the color of
beautiful sunset red.
Ji Heng thinks so differently.
If I were her,
the best I could say is
'it can sell a good price.'
Never mind.
I'd better not stay here.
It upsets me watching you while I can do nothing.
My feet fell asleep.
Little fox.
It's so adorable.
Little fox.
You don't fight back anymore.
Do you recall who I am?
In Ten-evil Lotus Land,
you liked me so much.
You were even reluctant to part with me.
Maybe you feel the same way towards His Majesty.
But now
me and His Majesty can raise you together.
Are you happy?
Right.
Little fox, look.
This is a rice bowl
I and His Majesty specially made for you.
I've been thinking about
creating a pattern
as your exclusive mark.
And it occurred to me just now that
your claws
may be the best.
Why on earth did I transform into a fox
at His Majesty's side?
I've worked so hard for so long.
But I've only made it
to the position of a pet.
I am so useless.
I used to be the most popular fairy
in Qingqiu Kingdom.
Perhaps the hierarchical Sky Kingdom
thinks that we are not followers of
traditional etiquette.
But
I don't eat in a bowl
or sleep in a pet nest.
I just want to get close to it.
It doesn't like me?
It used to like me a lot.
Your Majesty.
It's been naughty lately.
Lock it up for a while.
Yes.
Your Majesty,
you said it's naughty.
Did you say it to me?
And that's all?
His Majesty ordered to lock you up.
And I don't know where he wants to lock you
or until when.
You were making a big scene there just now.
I thought it was not a good time to ask.
Come to my place.
Little fox.
You still don't want to eat?
Did I mention it to you that
Princess Ji Heng was born to be
afraid of bleeding.
Princess Ji Heng is weak.
Even if she suffers only a minor injury,
the wound will bleed out a lot.
Let alone getting
such a good scratch by your claws.
It got her injured badly.
She finally recovered
after taking some magic medicine.
That was nerve-racking.
Now
His Majesty is too busy to think about you.
I will let you out for a bit.
You can go enjoy the sunshine.
But remember to
keep away from His Majesty.
Don't let him see you.
Or I'll be accused of not carrying out my duty.
I know.
Exotic animals like snow lions only eat Lucid Ganoderma.
How could you feed it with Lucid Ganoderma?
Even I...
Even I have never got to taste it before.
It always has been my privilege.
This is what you will do to me when I'm trying to catch your attention.
You are His Majesty's favorite spirit animal
in Tai Chen Palace.
I heard those fairy maids gossiping that
His Majesty likes you a lot.
I thought you were a rarely seen fox.
But you turn out to be so ordinary.
I never thought that
I would end up
competing with a snow lion for favor.
Why are you walking so fast?
What?
You are mutinous about it?
Rumor has it that you are arrogant and all
just because His Majesty dotes on you.
How dare you
hurt my mater Princess Ji Heng?
My master is so kind and forgiving.
Consider yourself unlucky to meet me today.
What they say is true.
you can't talk.
Big fish. It must be a big fish.
Here we go.
Your Highness.
Your Highness, what's wrong with you?
Your Highness. Your Highness.
Si Ming.
Look what I got for you?
Thank you. You're welcome.
I asked you for medicine and you came all the way to deliver it to me.
It's not a big deal.
The effect will be halved if you add so much sugar.
Si Ming.
You owed so much to others
for asking for all these magic medicine.
Which fairy it is that
you are cooking the medicine for?
Terrible fate.
It's all because of the terrible fate.
I've spent some days in Si Ming's mansion.
I'm born to fear bitterness.
I'm surprised that Si Ming remembers it.
I want to ask you something with sincerity.
How exactly did you end up
getting yourself in this situation
as an experienced princess?
Goddess of the Empyrean.
Princess of Qingqiu.
The obsession that I have has been going on for over 2000 years.
Is it time to give it up now?
My deputies, what suggestions do you have?
Father,
the empress's ceremony should be planned carefully.
And this time,
the divinity of the gods must be shown.
Your Majesty,
Demon King Xu Yang is so evil-intended
to propose a sudden marriage.
It might be their trick to stall for time.
How can the demons play against us
with their current power?
Third Prince, you and I both
fought in the previous war.
You should know that the demons are quite a force to be reckoned with.
Your Majesty, what do you think?
Sacrifice to heaven
will be held two days later.
Take care, Your Majesty.
You can stop looking.
No one is looking for you.
Seems like they don't know that you went missing.
I got nothing to do anyway.
So I went to Yi Shi San Heaven to ask about you.
They said you were locked away by His Majesty
for hurting the princess of the demons.
Did you get hurt by the princess
for revenge?
His Majesty is getting married two days later.
He is marrying the princess of the demons.
What are you going to do?
I know they are getting married.
But I didn't expect it to be so soon.
Do you want to go back to Qingqiu?
It's definitely not easy to hold on to
the obsession for over 2000 years.
There's no one
around His Majesty before.
It's kind of a beautiful and stubborn affection
that you have for him.
But now he is becoming other's husband.
If you keep on doing this,
the affection will become
a torment.
If you get yourself into it deeper and deeper,
your life will somehow become a misery.
Life is long for you.
You don't want to live in a misery, do you?
No women in Qingqiu can bear to
to lose their dignity like that.
Do you want to see him for one last time?
Wait. I know what to do.
This is my pavilion.
Teacher.
Suo Ying seems hungry.
Although it's not time for the meal yet,
can we feed it with Lucid Ganoderma first?
Handsome host.
Beautiful hostess.
And their beloved spiritual pet
that understands human language.
The scene is so picturesque
and harmonious.
Shall we leave?
The long sword in His Majesty's hand
must be the present
Third Prince made for Cheng Yu's birthday.
He is using Foling Flowers
to test the weight and speed of the sword.
If it's too heavy
or too slow,
the wind brought by the sword will
blow down Foling Flowers.
Let alone cutting one into two.
