00:00:00Lady Aveline Sterling from the Montagues, a woman of virtue, diligent and gentle, hereby

00:00:05bestow the title of first-ranked Lady of Honor by Imperial Decree.

00:00:10We humbly thank His Majesty for His Grace.

00:00:21Murder!

00:00:22Murder!

00:00:23Duh!

00:00:24Hey!

00:00:25Someone's been killed!

00:00:26Murder!

00:00:27Murder!

00:00:28Murder!

00:00:41Sister...

00:00:43Why?

00:00:44Don't call me sister!

00:00:45You are unworthy!

00:00:46We are both daughters of the Sterling family!

00:00:48Why should you live better than me?

00:00:50If only Adrian Montag caught my bridal bow three years ago!

00:00:55I don't...

00:00:56...

00:01:00This war of your glory...

00:01:01Is nothing but an illusion!

00:01:03If I were given another chance...

00:01:05I would rather forsake all of these honors...

00:01:07...

00:01:10Master, I have already spread the word.

00:01:32Master, the noblemen from all around have heard that our daughters of the Sterling family are seeking husbands and are eager to compete for them.

00:01:40For a son-in-law of our family, at the very least, he must be a man of great status.

00:01:45You two better aim at the right man.

00:01:47Whichever of you marries well shall bring glory to our family.

00:01:50Have I been reborn to three years ago?

00:01:53The very day of the husband seeking bridal bond.

00:01:55My lady, it's time to cast your bond.

00:01:57Sister, please let me go first.

00:02:05In my past life, Josephine insists that I go first.

00:02:10Feigning modesty and humility.

00:02:12Yet now, it seems, Josephine has also been reborn.

00:02:21Lady Josephine, this way! Give it to me! Lady Josephine, come on!

00:02:25In this life, I have to marry Adrian!

00:02:38Tim, Adrian, second son of the Montagues.

00:02:41The Montague family are relatives of the royal family, which means we shall become royal king as well.

00:02:47I actually altered my fate.

00:02:51Three years later, Adrian shall rise in rank, and I shall become a noble lady of honor.

00:02:58Josephine, you have schemed relentlessly.

00:03:01But little do you know that you're going to suffer a lot in the evil Montague family.

00:03:07Great, great, great!

00:03:09The whole family is counting on you!

00:03:10Oh, stop flattering me!

00:03:12I'm doing this just for our family.

00:03:14Once I become Lady Montague, I shall be mindful of my words and actions, bringing prosperity to our family.

00:03:21Sister, what do you say?

00:03:24You are truly fortunate.

00:03:26As your sister, I am happy for you.

00:03:29Evelyn, Lady Luck is with me this time.

00:03:32In this life, I will never let you overshadow me again.

00:03:41That is...

00:03:42Your Majesty!

00:03:45Your Majesty!

00:03:47Master, if the Empress tower would you find, you're dressed like this.

00:03:51Mother's been always pressing me.

00:03:53I can only leave the palace for some peace.

00:03:56This is a perfect chance to experience the life of ordinary folk.

00:03:59Hurry, Mr. Darling, so let's go!

00:04:02The bridal ball for marriage!

00:04:03Let's have a look.

00:04:05In my past life, that beggar caught my bridal ball.

00:04:08I had to run away and that suffer a lot.

00:04:10This time, I shall let you taste the pain of being abandoned by your own kin.

00:04:16Master, our family has now secured ties with the Montagues.

00:04:21Evelyn, now it's your turn.

00:04:23And you better aim as close as Josephine.

00:04:25Mother, how could you say such a thing?

00:04:28Sister has always been lucky and she would never bring shame upon us.

00:04:32In my opinion, in the moment, she will surely get the finest husband.

00:04:41Powerful or not, rich or not, it's only written on water.

00:04:46In this life, I seek only a true companion to live a peaceful life till the end.

00:04:51It's him.

00:05:06It's him.

00:05:07The beggar that Josephine ran away from.

00:05:09Oh no, it actually went to a beggar.

00:05:16Sister, what terrible luck you have.

00:05:19A beggar out of so many people down there.

00:05:21How do you expect father to hold his head high?

00:05:24Damn it!

00:05:25With so many people down there, how could you cast it to a beggar?

00:05:29Are you deliberately trying to shame me?

00:05:31What's done is done, sister.

00:05:33Do not be too upset.

00:05:34Though he is of lowly birth, but look, at least he got a pretty face.

00:05:40It is only a pity for you, sister, raising comfort and luxury.

00:05:43But now bound to a beggar, you shall have to labor yourself to earn your bread.

00:05:49Now this will be quite the spectacle.

00:05:51The esteemed Lady Evelyn will marry a beggar?

00:05:53Everyone is watching.

00:05:54If she refuses, it's going to ruin their credit.

00:05:57Who would associate with them more?

00:05:58Hey, hey, hey, seize her!

00:06:04Don't let her escape!

00:06:05Master, how did this bridal bull end up in your hands?

00:06:08What should we do now?

00:06:09It's the Scottish!

00:06:11I'm dressed in such rags.

00:06:13She won't agree.

00:06:17Sister, why are you running?

00:06:19You cast the bridal bull yourself!

00:06:22You damn girl!

00:06:24Look at the filthy beggar you've got!

00:06:26If he becomes my son-in-law, it's going to be a huge disgrace to us!

00:06:33In my past life, I was mistreated by the Montagues and used for Sterling's ambitions.

00:06:39Thinking back now, perhaps marrying a beggar would be a better fate.

00:06:43The rule of the bridal bull is binding.

00:06:46Since he caught the bull, you should...

00:06:48I am willing to marry him.

00:06:50I am willing to take Lucas Prescott as my husband.

00:07:19Are you serious?

00:07:27Yeah.

00:07:29The ball is in your hands.

00:07:31You want to...

00:07:32reject me?

00:07:34I didn't.

00:07:36It's just that I'm poor as hell.

00:07:38Marrying me would mean a life of a certainty.

00:07:41Are you sure?

00:07:43We're not disabled or something.

00:07:46We may be poor now, but we can always earn our money.

00:07:48We can work hard to make a living ourselves.

00:07:54I've never seen someone so easily content.

00:07:57He's just a filthy beggar!

00:07:59You're really going to marry him?

00:08:01Evelyn, you're sure about this?

00:08:04Marry this beggar and your future is ruined!

00:08:08I do not believe that is true.

00:08:10Future won't be decided like that.

00:08:11Lucas, Lucas, he may be in rags now, but I can see his humility and good manner.

00:08:18He's going to make a difference, maybe.

00:08:20You are...

00:08:21Rule is rule.

00:08:23You're not eating your words, are you, sir?

00:08:25Indeed.

00:08:26If he refuses, that's breaking the rules and going to ruin their reputation.

00:08:30Seems well.

00:08:31She has to marry him.

00:08:32Indeed, marry him.

00:08:33Indeed, marry him.

00:08:34Indeed, marry him.

00:08:35Since you want to marry him, don't blame us in the future.

00:08:39You won't get a share of the coming glory of us.

00:08:43I understand.

00:08:44The matchmaking is concluded.

00:08:47Everyone disperse.

00:08:48Sister, no hard feelings, but marrying a beggar means you will spend your life beneath me.

00:09:01You should worry about yourself.

00:09:04Life with the Montague's is not as easy as you imagine.

00:09:15You...

00:09:16In three days, remember to come to propose.

00:09:23It's her or Mother's pressing, so I might as well...

00:09:27All right, I'll be there.

00:09:34Today, the second daughter of the Silent Family is to be wed.

00:09:38Her dowry includes a pair of gold phoenix hairpins laid with precious gems,

00:09:42plenty of boats of fine brocade,

00:09:44three land deeds for silk shops in the Eastern District.

00:09:47Lady Josephine Sterling's salary is worth a fortune.

00:09:50Yet Lady Evelyn Sterling has nothing at all.

00:09:52They're both daughters of the Sterling family,

00:09:54but the difference between them is astonishing.

00:09:56Sister, after marrying a beggar,

00:09:58you will likely toil for the rest of your life.

00:10:00I wonder if you can even endure such life.

00:10:02It's the bridegroom.

00:10:12The bridegroom has arrived.

00:10:15Oh, as expected of the second son of the Montague family,

00:10:19the spectacle is grand indeed.

00:10:21Of course, the Montagues hold immense power.

00:10:23Marrying into their family,

00:10:24Lady Josephine Sterling will live a life of endless luxury.

00:10:27Unlike Evelyn, marrying a beggar,

00:10:29this will certainly be an interesting sight to behold.

00:10:32My respects to my honor, father, and mother-in-law.

00:10:34Please rise, my son-in-law.

00:10:35My son-in-law.

00:10:36Such an elaborate wedding procession

00:10:39is a spectacle worthy of Highgate.

00:10:41For our dear Josephine to be regarded so highly by you

00:10:44is an honor to the Sterling family.

00:10:46Sister, the auspicious hour is nearly over.

00:10:53Why has your husband not come for you?

00:10:55Could it be that he's not coming at all?

00:11:04I, your humble son-in-law, greet my honored father-in-law.

00:11:12My lady.

00:11:16My lady.

00:11:18Are you here to beg for the alms or take a bride?

00:11:21Dressed in such rags, do you not feel ashamed?

00:11:23Compared to Lord Montague,

00:11:25you are as far apart as heaven and earth.

00:11:28Just what are you wearing?

00:11:30In front of so many esteemed officials,

00:11:32are you not bringing shame upon me?

00:11:34Today is your wedding day.

00:11:36And yet you came dressed like this?

00:11:38Do you not find this is a disgrace?

00:11:40Do you not finding this humiliating?

00:11:42Marriage is a lifelong commitment,

00:11:44building upon sincerity,

00:11:45not mere appearances.

00:11:46The men I, Evelyn Sterling,

00:11:48have chosen

00:11:48is not one whose worth

00:11:50can be swayed by idle words.

00:11:51Have you not embarrassed us enough?

00:11:54Turn.

00:11:54Master,

00:11:55do not be anchored.

00:11:57From the moment Evelyn

00:11:58steps beyond this threshold,

00:12:00she'll no longer be a Sterling.

00:12:02The auspicious hour has arrived.

00:12:04Bring the bride to the carriage.

00:12:13This is death.

00:12:14Congratulations, Master Sterling.

00:12:19Your son-in-law is truly an exceptional man.

00:12:24Many thanks, Deputy Minister.

00:12:26Please come inside.

00:12:27After you.

00:12:30Surely you didn't arrive on foot today.

00:12:33On such a big day,

00:12:35will you have the bride walk

00:12:36all the way to your home?

00:12:37Unheard of.

00:12:40Indeed.

00:12:41Not like my husband.

00:12:46My lady,

00:12:47please,

00:12:48allow me to take you home.

00:12:49Bow to the heavens and the earth.

00:13:11Is this the place

00:13:12they've found us to live in?

00:13:13A shabby place like this?

00:13:21Is it even fit for living?

00:13:22I just didn't want you to blow your cover.

00:13:25And bow to each other

00:13:26as husband and wife.

00:13:28The ceremony is complete!

00:13:37My lady,

00:13:39I have put you through hardship,

00:13:41having a life with me

00:13:42in such a shabby place.

00:13:43Not at all.

00:13:44I actually think

00:13:46it's rather spacious.

00:13:48At least,

00:13:49it shields us

00:13:49from the wind and rain.

00:13:50If we work hard from now on,

00:13:53keep this place tidy,

00:13:55he'll soon feel

00:13:56much more comfortable.

00:13:57At this moment,

00:13:58I have nothing of value

00:13:59to give you.

00:14:01This shade pendant

00:14:02was left to me

00:14:03by my father.

00:14:04I've carried it with me

00:14:05all these years.

00:14:07And now,

00:14:08I'm giving it to you.

00:14:14It's so precious.

00:14:16Are you certain of it?

00:14:17All right.

00:14:21I will cherish it well.

00:14:23I will cherish it well.

00:14:48You're up.

00:14:49Breakfast is ready.

00:14:50For you.

00:14:54Hi.

00:14:55Where are you going?

00:14:57Today is the wife's

00:14:58homecoming day.

00:14:59I made telemets

00:15:00from my parents,

00:15:01but they're not quite finished.

00:15:02I need to buy

00:15:02some more threads

00:15:03and complete them

00:15:04before I return home.

00:15:05All right.

00:15:06I'll go with you.

00:15:07All right.

00:15:09Let's go.

00:15:14Greetings,

00:15:15your majesty!

00:15:16Greetings,

00:15:21your majesty!

00:15:21Greetings,

00:15:21your majesty!

00:15:26Who are they?

00:15:27The palace is too complicated.

00:15:29Once everything's settled,

00:15:30I'll reveal my identity

00:15:31to Evelyn.

00:15:32They are...

00:15:32They're here for Victor.

00:15:37Hmm.

00:15:41Yes, yes.

00:15:42I used to serve

00:15:43in the palace.

00:15:44These are all

00:15:44old acquaintances.

00:15:46Evelyn,

00:15:49I'll help Victor

00:15:50to entertain the guests.

00:15:51Will you be all right

00:15:52buying threat on your own?

00:15:55Yes.

00:15:55Speak!

00:16:09What happened?

00:16:10The Empress Dowager

00:16:10distressed over

00:16:11your majesty's sense

00:16:12and suddenly collapsed.

00:16:13What?

00:16:14Victor,

00:16:14stay here and protect

00:16:15your Evelyn.

00:16:16Let's head back.

00:16:17Yes,

00:16:17your majesty.

00:16:18Get someone

00:16:19to deliver

00:16:20some valuable gifts

00:16:20to Sterling Estate.

00:16:22Say that they're

00:16:22Evelyn's homecoming gifts.

00:16:23Yes,

00:16:24your majesty.

00:16:25Let's go.

00:16:26Father,

00:16:27mother,

00:16:28your daughter

00:16:29has returned.

00:16:31Father?

00:16:32Why has sister

00:16:34returned alone?

00:16:39Today is your

00:16:40homecoming day.

00:16:42Sister,

00:16:42why have you

00:16:43returned alone?

00:16:44Are you ashamed

00:16:45of your beggar husband?

00:16:47So you didn't even

00:16:48bring him to meet

00:16:49the family?

00:16:49My husband

00:16:50wanted to come,

00:16:51but something

00:16:52urgent came up.

00:16:53Since being married

00:16:54to the beggar,

00:16:55Lady Evelyn Sterling,

00:16:56must have suffered

00:16:57a great deal.

00:16:58You look much

00:16:58frailer than before.

00:17:01Had you not married

00:17:02that filthy beggar,

00:17:03perhaps I would have

00:17:04taken you as a concubine.

00:17:06At least you wouldn't

00:17:06have fallen to such

00:17:07a state.

00:17:08That will not be

00:17:09necessary.

00:17:10I am living well.

00:17:11As of for you,

00:17:12sister,

00:17:13it has been

00:17:13quite a few days

00:17:14since you had

00:17:15seen your husband

00:17:16before.

00:17:16You...

00:17:17Screw you,

00:17:19Adrian.

00:17:19Went drinking

00:17:20with corsets

00:17:21on our wedding

00:17:21night,

00:17:22and now everyone

00:17:22knows we are

00:17:23utterly humiliating

00:17:24me.

00:17:25Josephine.

00:17:30Father,

00:17:31mother.

00:17:32Greetings to you

00:17:33both.

00:17:34Greetings to you

00:17:35both.

00:17:36You've returned

00:17:36alone.

00:17:37How can you

00:17:38still have the

00:17:38face to come

00:17:38back?

00:17:39What does

00:17:39your husband

00:17:40do all day,

00:17:41not even

00:17:42accompanying you

00:17:43for your

00:17:43homecoming?

00:17:44Mother,

00:17:45you're thinking

00:17:46too highly of

00:17:47her.

00:17:47That filthy

00:17:48beggar is

00:17:48probably begging

00:17:49in the streets

00:17:50right now.

00:17:51How could he

00:17:51possibly compare

00:17:52to my husband?

00:17:54Father-in-law,

00:17:56your humble

00:17:56son-in-law

00:17:56has brought

00:17:57a small gift.

00:18:04Josephine has

00:18:05truly found

00:18:05herself a

00:18:06fine husband.

00:18:07For our

00:18:07daughter to

00:18:07marry such

00:18:08a fine

00:18:08gentleman,

00:18:10the blessing

00:18:10she has earned

00:18:11over eight

00:18:11lifetimes.

00:18:12Unlike

00:18:13someone who

00:18:14chose a beggar

00:18:15as her husband,

00:18:16our sterling

00:18:17family has

00:18:17raised you

00:18:19years,

00:18:20come back

00:18:20empty-handed

00:18:21on your

00:18:21homecoming

00:18:22day.

00:18:23Indeed,

00:18:24sister.

00:18:25This is my

00:18:26homecoming

00:18:26gift.

00:18:27Have you

00:18:27fallen into

00:18:28such poverty

00:18:29that you

00:18:29cannot even

00:18:30afford a

00:18:30proper

00:18:30homecoming

00:18:31gift?

00:18:38Father,

00:18:39Mother,

00:18:40these are the

00:50:27insolent servant

00:50:30you must never let her discover your true identity

00:50:36my deepest apologies your majesty

00:50:48i merely saw someone injured and acted out of concern

00:50:50unfortunately it wasn't his majesty

00:50:55but

00:50:59master langley

00:51:00what is going on here?

00:51:03oh

00:51:07i specifically brought him to the palace to interrogate him

00:51:10uh-uh

00:51:12hey

00:51:12you the new one

00:51:13how can you be so ignorant of the rules?

00:51:20madam langston

00:51:24for causing this young officer concern

00:51:26if you understand your error

00:51:27then leave at once

00:51:28as for you

00:51:39fraternizing with the guards is a grave matter

00:51:44yet madame williams merely punished her

00:51:46with kneeling

00:51:46the last time she stole a jade pendant

00:51:48that incident was also swept under the rug

00:51:50tell me

00:51:52if his majesty knew she had stolen his jade pendant

00:51:55how do you think he would handle her?

00:51:57i shall inform his majesty at once

00:52:20you foolish servant

00:52:24what have you put in this bowl?

00:52:26i obtained a recipe from a talless who claimed they could

00:52:29enhance one's beauty when consumed

00:52:31i only wished to do what was best for madame williams

00:52:37which is why i acted so foolishly

00:52:38how dare you serve something of unknown origin to ma'am

00:52:41if this rash on her face does not fade

00:52:44how will you atone for this?

00:52:47madame?

00:53:07you?

00:53:08i've studied medical texts

00:53:10and i can prepare herbal remedy

00:53:12that might alleviate the rash on your face

00:53:14if

00:53:18if my methods prove effective

00:53:22i beg you madame

00:53:24to spare isabella's life

00:53:26his majesty has not paid me attention for a long time

00:53:39yet i hear

00:53:40he has recently been visiting imperial household bureau

00:53:43tell me who could be in the imperial household bureau

00:53:46to capture his majesty's interest so deeply

00:53:48i don't know

00:53:49i know nothing

00:53:50speak

00:53:52i remember now

00:53:57there is indeed someone

00:53:58who dares to do such a thing

00:53:59it may not look appealing but

00:54:13it is true that the rash has faded somewhat

00:54:15it seems

00:54:19you do have some skill

00:54:20thank you for your praise madame

00:54:23adam

00:54:23you need to only wait six more hours

00:54:47thank you

00:54:49if it weren't for you today

00:54:59as for what happened before i owe you an apology

00:55:02i will accept any punishment or scolding you see fit

00:55:05why would i scold you?

00:55:17so you're willing to forgive me?

00:55:19you're not entirely a bad person

00:55:23it's just that your words can be utterly vicious

00:55:28let's go

00:55:36let's go

00:55:36your majesty

00:55:41i believe that his majesty's insistence on making lady evelyn the empress does not seem like a mere impulse

00:55:48lady evelyn truly possesses remarkable qualities

00:55:54let's eat a chestnut cake

00:55:55it was her

00:55:56it was her

00:55:57it was you who seduced his majesty

00:56:06it was you who seduced his majesty

00:56:08you're just stuck to the face of yours no wonder you can't stay out of trouble

00:56:15his majesty finding a bride outside the palace is wondering

00:56:17but when did your lowly servant

00:56:20dare to entertain such wicked thoughts

00:56:22when did evelyn ever seduce his majesty?

00:56:24isabella have you forgotten how much we suffered because of her?

00:56:27isabella have you forgotten how much we suffered because of her?

00:56:28she once provoked me intentionally it was you who kept picking fights deliberately

00:56:32isabella

00:56:33isabella

00:56:34isabella

00:56:35do you even know who i am?

00:56:36how dare you act so insolently in my presence

00:56:39excuse me

00:56:41wait

00:56:45the person standing before you is lady caldwell

00:56:47daughter of chancellor caldwell

00:56:49she's the one the empress dodge rager has chosen to be empress

00:56:52what a fool

00:56:53since lady caldwell is the esteemed daughter of the chancellor

00:56:56surely you are a reasonable person

00:56:57we have never even met his majesty

00:56:59so how could there be any talk of seduction?

00:57:01i beg you lady cat will spare me

00:57:03i heard from eleanor

00:57:04that you not only seduced his majesty

00:57:06but also entangled yourself with the guards

00:57:08that face of yours is too dangerous to keep you in front of me

00:57:17stop

00:57:27stop

00:57:28stop

00:57:36the imperial household bureau is part of the harem

00:57:39since when is it your place to interfere?

00:57:42a mere old servant

00:57:43dares to raise your voice in front of me?

00:57:45you! how dare you?

00:57:48his majesty and i grew up together

00:57:49i am the only candidate for emphasis

00:57:51the harm will be mine sooner or later

00:57:53dealing the lowly maid is nothing to me

00:57:55preposterous

00:57:57do you even know who stands before you?

00:58:01aren't you just a lowborn servant?

00:58:04if i don't teach you a lesson you'll never learn your place

00:58:08restrain her as well

00:58:10eleanor

00:58:11you wouldn't dare

00:58:17i never expected you to be so venomous at heart

00:58:20her majesty truly misjudged you

00:58:22huh

00:58:23you didn't call yourself her majesty?

00:58:24who are you taking yourself for?

00:58:25the empress dowager?

00:58:26a disfigured old wretch like you

00:58:33dare to use the title of the empress dowager

00:58:35it seems you've grown tired of living

00:58:37it seems you still refuse to admit your wrongdoing

00:58:39what wrong have i done?

00:58:41you born into lowly status can only be servants of the palace

00:58:45to defy your superiors is to seek death

00:58:47you!

00:58:48lady catwell

00:58:49the inner court is under the jurisdiction of his majesty and the empress dowager

00:58:52to deal with the palace servants privately is likely against the rules

00:58:55i beg you to show mercy

00:58:56as the head of the imperial household bureau

00:58:58you have allowed your maid to seduce his majesty

00:59:01such behaviors as a dangerous example

00:59:03this is unforgivable

00:59:04fetch my wisdom

00:59:05the spring blossom banquet will be held at the beginning of next month

00:59:12this year all the nobles and dignitaries will be in attendance

00:59:16everything must be prepared perfectly

00:59:18your majesty rest assured

00:59:20i will spare no effort in ensuring its success

00:59:25you insolent servant

00:59:26how dare you disturb his majesty

00:59:28his majesty?

00:59:30his humble maid greets your majesty

00:59:32and beg your majesty to visit and save Evelyn Sterling

00:59:34what did you say?

00:59:36Evelyn's in danger

00:59:42this majesty

00:59:43this humble maid greets your majesty

00:59:45and beg your majesty to visit and save Evelyn Sterling

00:59:47what did you say?

00:59:49Evelyn's in danger

01:00:02what are you doing?

01:00:03it was me who offended Lady Cowan

01:00:06and i would not wish for you

01:00:07who suffered punishment on my account

01:00:10since you are so eager to play the hero

01:00:12i shall grant your wish today

01:00:14enough!

01:00:15Anna Caldwell

01:00:16her majesty advises you not to go too far otherwise

01:00:20you called yourself her majesty again?

01:00:21you reckless wretch

01:00:22today i shall teach you the rules on behalf of the empress that way

01:00:25Anna Caldwell

01:00:26you're not just i-

01:00:37i greet the empress dowager

01:00:38i greet the empress dowager

01:00:39thank great her majesty

01:00:40the empress dowager

01:00:42how could she possibly be the empress dowager?

01:00:44How could she possibly be the Empress Dowager?

01:00:52How is this possible?

01:00:54Her Majesty was merely testing you, but she never expected you to be so insolent.

01:00:59How dare you overstep and offend Her Majesty herself?

01:01:03Your Majesty, this humble subject admits her fault.

01:01:06I failed to recognize that you were the Empress Dowager.

01:01:09I beg Your Majesty for forgiveness.

01:01:11I beg the Emperor for mercy.

01:01:12My... the Emperor.

01:01:18This humble official believes this matter is of great importance.

01:01:21It concerns the dignity of the Empress Dowager.

01:01:22I implore Your Majesty to carefully consider the matter.

01:01:31Exactly.

01:01:32How could you dare to offend the Empress Dowager?

01:01:36Admit your fault at once!

01:01:37This humble subject admits my fault.

01:01:39Your Majesty, it was this wretched maid.

01:01:42She told me to seduce His Majesty.

01:01:45This is why I lost my composure.

01:01:48Lady Caldwell, it was clear to you!

01:01:50If it weren't for your manipulation, how could I have spoken so recklessly before the Empress Dowager?

01:01:54The palace maid Eleanor Fairfox has spread rumors and caused trouble.

01:01:58Take her away and sell her at once!

01:02:00The palace maid Eleanor Fairfox has spread rumors and caused trouble.

01:02:04Take her away and sell her at once!

01:02:05Your Majesty, have mercy!

01:02:07I did not spread rumors!

01:02:08I saw Evelyn flirting with the guards!

01:02:10I truly did not spread rumors!

01:02:12Your Majesty!

01:02:12I beg your Majesty!

01:02:14You are the eldest daughter of the sturdy camera!

01:02:16How dare you!

01:02:16Anna Caldwell, I always believed you to be a kind-hearted, yet I never expected you to be ruthless.

01:02:21You've overstepped your place and still dared to dream of becoming Empress.

01:02:25You are sentenced to one year in the Office of Discipline to reflect on your actions.

01:02:28Office of Discipline?

01:02:29No, your Majesty!

01:02:30This almost doesn't get miserable!

01:02:32Your Majesty, please spare me!

01:02:34I do not want to get to the Office of Discipline!

01:02:35I have questions for you.

01:02:47Where is Her Majesty taking them?

01:02:57Evelyn!

01:02:59Lucas!

01:03:00Did the Empress daughter punish you?

01:03:01Of course not!

01:03:02Her Majesty wishes to discuss the Spring Blossom Banquet with me.

01:03:06That's a relief.

01:03:08Evelyn.

01:03:11Evelyn has passed the test!

01:03:12Wonderful!

01:03:13I will reveal my identity to her and make her my Empress!

01:03:16There is no need to rush the coronation.

01:03:19The Ministry of Rights is preparing for the Spring Blossom Banquet next month.

01:03:23They may not have enough resources to manage both.

01:03:26Moreover, this matter is too sudden.

01:03:29I'm concerned the other Ministers may object.

01:03:32Mother, why not let Evelyn organize the Spring Blossom Banquet

01:03:35if she can manage this banquet

01:03:36it will not only prove her capability

01:03:38but also make her coronation more acceptable to everyone.

01:03:42Her Majesty wants you to take charge of the Spring Blossom Banquet.

01:03:45Me?

01:03:47I don't know how to organize it.

01:03:51Don't worry.

01:03:53Trust your abilities.

01:03:54You shall triumph.

01:03:55I'll also assist you behind the scenes.

01:03:57All right.

01:04:02Get moving, all of you.

01:04:10If anyone dares to slack off, my whip shows no mercy.

01:04:19Useless fool!

01:04:21Do you still think you're a pampered young lady?

01:04:23Huh?

01:04:24Once you're in the office of discipline,

01:04:25no one gets to laze around.

01:04:27Everett Sterling, this is all your fault!

01:04:37Don't touch me!

01:04:39I'm the daughter of Chancellor Cladwell!

01:04:41You better show some respect!

01:04:48The daughter of Chancellor Cladwell?

01:04:50In my past life, Adrian Montauk was promoted by the Empress Elwager

01:04:53during the Spring Blossom Banquet.

01:04:55If I can escape this wretched place

01:04:57and find a way to bring Adrian to the Spring Blossom Banquet,

01:05:01I can surely turn things around.

01:05:08What a wretched place!

01:05:10They expect me, a lady, to wash my clothes myself?

01:05:15Where did this lonely maid come from?

01:05:17Lady, I have an urgent request.

01:05:23When?

01:05:23Why should I help you?

01:05:25I am a noble bird.

01:05:27Were it not for this temporary misfortune,

01:05:29you wouldn't even be worthy to speak to me.

01:05:34My elder sister, Evelyn Sterling,

01:05:36is the reason I was in prison here.

01:05:38If you help escape,

01:05:39I shall be forever indebted to you.

01:05:44Evelyn Sterling?

01:05:45Evelyn Sterling?

01:05:50Not bad.

01:05:51The banquet itinerary is clear and well-structured.

01:05:54It is evident that much effort was put into it.

01:05:56And trusting you at the banquet's organization

01:05:58was indeed a wide choice.

01:05:59Many thanks for your majesty's praise.

01:06:01Your majesty!

01:06:02Terrible news!

01:06:04The Office of Discipline is on fire!

01:06:05What?

01:06:06Sir, what is the situation inside?

01:06:15The fire has engulfed the entire rear courtyard.

01:06:17Nearly half the people couldn't make it out.

01:06:20Anna Caldwell.

01:06:21Your majesty!

01:06:28Your majesty!

01:06:33Your majesty!

01:06:34This humble subject has come to realize my mistakes.

01:06:37I beg you to spare me from this punishment.

01:06:39The Office of Discipline is the place I cannot enjoy

01:06:42even for a single day longer!

01:06:43As long as you're alive,

01:06:45at least this allows me to account for your well-being

01:06:47to your father.

01:06:48Enough!

01:06:49With your temperament,

01:06:49staying in the Office of Discipline

01:06:51would serve no purpose.

01:06:52Next month,

01:06:53you shall be the one to marry into Lior Empire.

01:06:56What?

01:06:57I'm married to life?

01:06:59What?

01:06:59Are you unwilling?

01:07:00Or would you prefer to continue staying

01:07:03in the Office of Discipline?

01:07:06No.

01:07:08This humble subject

01:07:09humbly obeys your majesty's decree.

01:07:12I shall depart for the marriage.

01:07:15I like this next month.

01:07:17However,

01:07:17I have an impertinent request.

01:07:20I was able to escape this calamity.

01:07:22Thanks to Josephine Sterling

01:07:23risking her life to save,

01:07:25I dare to ask that your majesty

01:07:26release Josephine Sterling

01:07:28from the Office of Discipline.

01:07:29I pay your respects to your majesty.

01:07:34I remember.

01:07:36Josephine is your sister.

01:07:39Tell me,

01:07:41how should I reward her?

01:07:46Empress Dowager,

01:07:47we were never close since childhood.

01:07:50Our bond is not strong.

01:07:51I don't get a say in this.

01:07:54Since you have agreed to the marriage alliance,

01:07:57then so be it.

01:07:58let's go back.

01:08:01Thank you for your grace.

01:08:03Thank you for your grace.

01:08:12Evan Sterling,

01:08:14I thought you had sworn high already.

01:08:18Turns out,

01:08:19you're still that low.

01:08:20you've ruined our parents and montags.

01:08:23And also got me thrown into the Office of Discipline.

01:08:26About that,

01:08:28I will make sure you pay it.

01:08:31I will make sure you pay it.

01:08:40Edmund,

01:08:41let me out, please.

01:08:42This is driving me crazy.

01:08:45You don't get to complain.

01:08:51If it weren't for you and Josephine,

01:08:53two fools,

01:08:54I wouldn't have offended his majesty

01:08:55and lost my position.

01:08:59It's all Josephine's fault.

01:09:02Husband!

01:09:03Why are you back?

01:09:04The Empress Dowager pardoned me.

01:09:09I'm released from Office of Discipline.

01:09:11After everything you put us through,

01:09:13you still have the guts to come back?

01:09:16Edmund,

01:09:17it's all because Evelyn.

01:09:19Instead of blaming each other here,

01:09:21you should think how to get back at her.

01:09:24Get back at her?

01:09:26She's like royalty now.

01:09:27How'd you get back at her, huh?

01:09:30I saw her once at the Office of Discipline.

01:09:33She was wearing a lonely palace-based uniform.

01:09:36I don't think she's royal.

01:09:38A palace maid?

01:09:41Could it be that

01:09:42His Majesty married her on a whim?

01:09:44Totally.

01:09:45If His Majesty really liked her,

01:09:47why would she be wearing that uniform?

01:09:49Spring Blossom Banquet is coming.

01:09:52All the nobles

01:09:53will be present then.

01:09:55It's the perfect opportunity.

01:09:57Spring Blossom Banquet.

01:09:59We're invited too.

01:10:01So I can go then?

01:10:05What are you scheming this time?

01:10:09Don't worry.

01:10:10At the banquet,

01:10:12I'll impress everyone.

01:10:14As long as I win

01:10:14the Empress Dowager's favor,

01:10:16our family will rise again.

01:10:25It's gonna be all nobles and high officials.

01:10:42Check everything thoroughly.

01:10:43We cannot afford to any mistakes.

01:10:45Oh, stop worrying.

01:10:50We've confirmed every detail

01:10:51multiple times already.

01:10:52There won't be any problems.

01:10:54Let's hope so.

01:10:57Avalyn.

01:10:58Avalyn.

01:11:08Hmm?

01:11:08If you like these pastries,

01:11:09I can get you more.

01:11:11Hmm.

01:11:15Glad this is a remote area

01:11:17with no patrols.

01:11:19Otherwise,

01:11:20I can't meet like this.

01:11:21Hmm.

01:11:22Avalyn.

01:11:32Once the banquet ends,

01:11:34wait for me here.

01:11:35I got something to tell you.

01:11:37All right.

01:11:38I'll wait for you here.

01:11:47Husband!

01:11:48Look over there!

01:11:52Avalyn!

01:11:54And a palace guard!

01:11:59Oh, right!

01:12:00You're on duty today.

01:12:02Let's hurry back.

01:12:05Remember,

01:12:06wait for me here.

01:12:07Okay.

01:12:08Take these.

01:12:13Hey!

01:12:14You really can't go a moment

01:12:16without a man.

01:12:17Just got tossed aside

01:12:19by His Majesty

01:12:19and now,

01:12:21you're ready

01:12:21with the guard.

01:12:32This is the Imperial Palace.

01:12:34Not your place,

01:12:34all right?

01:12:35Everything you do here

01:12:36is washed

01:12:37by His Majesty

01:12:38and the Empress Gouger.

01:12:39You were just released.

01:12:40Have you learned

01:12:41your lesson?

01:12:42My husband and I

01:12:43were invited here

01:12:45as honored guests

01:12:46for the banquet.

01:12:47You're nothing but a maid.

01:12:48If you serve us well,

01:12:51I may reward you.

01:12:53If not,

01:12:54you'll get kicked out.

01:12:56You were lucky

01:12:57to have gone away

01:12:58last time.

01:13:00No one can protect you

01:13:02this time!

01:13:03What do you mean?

01:13:06I want to destroy you

01:13:08from head to toe.

01:13:11Greetings,

01:13:11Empress Dowager.

01:13:12Greetings,

01:13:23Empress Dowager.

01:13:24Evelyn.

01:13:26Preparing the banquet

01:13:26must be exhausting.

01:13:28Once it is over,

01:13:29I will reward you properly.

01:13:32It's just my duty.

01:13:33Thanks for your grace.

01:13:35Your Highness,

01:13:36I have something to say.

01:13:38Speak.

01:13:39I wish to report

01:13:41Evelyn's improper

01:13:42relationship with the guard.

01:13:46Oh?

01:13:47I saw it with my own eyes.

01:13:49Evelyn and a guard

01:13:50were extremely intimate.

01:13:52When caught,

01:13:53they tried to cover it up.

01:13:54If they're this bold

01:13:55in broad daylight,

01:13:56who knows what they do

01:13:57in secret?

01:13:59Your Highness,

01:14:00I did have a contact

01:14:02with the guard.

01:14:03But before entering the palace,

01:14:05we already had

01:14:05developed feelings.

01:14:06In the palace,

01:14:07we only met occasionally.

01:14:09There was nothing improper.

01:14:10If you weren't guilty,

01:14:12why did you hurry away

01:14:13in that moment you saw us?

01:14:15This should be punishable

01:14:16by death.

01:14:19Your Highness,

01:14:20I insist on seeing him.

01:14:22If this matter

01:14:23deserves punishment,

01:14:25please spare the guard's life.

01:14:27Since neither of you

01:14:29are innocent,

01:14:30Your Highness,

01:14:31please summon the guard

01:14:33and execute them.

01:14:34Yes, Your Highness,

01:14:35punish them both.

01:14:36to uphold palace discipline.

01:14:39You two want me

01:14:40to execute the guard?

01:14:45You two want me

01:14:46to execute the guard?

01:14:50In the palace,

01:14:51it is indeed forbidden

01:14:52for palace maids

01:14:53and guards to mingle.

01:14:55But Evelyn,

01:14:56for organizing the banquet,

01:14:57put in great effort.

01:14:59She's redeemed herself.

01:15:00I have decided

01:15:01to spare her

01:15:01from punishment.

01:15:03Bye!

01:15:03Evelyn,

01:15:04lead me to the banquet site.

01:15:06Yes.

01:15:06farewell,

01:15:20Your Highness.

01:15:22She escaped again.

01:15:24Why is she always so lucky?

01:15:26First the Emperor protected her

01:15:28and now the Empress dowager.

01:15:29Even she was entrusted

01:15:30with the whole banquet?

01:15:31Since she's in charge

01:15:33of the banquet,

01:15:34we can just...

01:15:38Your Majesty,

01:15:43the banquet is that way.

01:15:44Where are you going?

01:15:45It's about to begin.

01:15:47You'll be late.

01:15:48I've thought it over.

01:15:49I should let her know

01:15:50the truth before the banquet.

01:15:52Go tell Evelyn

01:15:53to meet me

01:15:54where we were before.

01:15:54What?

01:15:55Eunuch Lainley.

01:16:00Come here.

01:16:02Get back.

01:16:09What's going on?

01:16:10You've done a great job

01:16:11this time.

01:16:12They're talking about

01:16:13how good the banquet is.

01:16:14Even an Empress dowager

01:16:15looks pleased.

01:16:16That's great.

01:16:18Someone is waiting for you

01:16:19in that courtyard.

01:16:20Go.

01:16:21How is it?

01:16:22Assassins!

01:16:25Protect the Empress dowager!

01:16:30What's going on inside?

01:16:31An assassin disguised

01:16:32in sedent, sir.

01:16:33Lord Montague took

01:16:34the blow for her majesty

01:16:35and the assassin escaped.

01:16:36What?

01:16:38Take her away.

01:16:40What are you doing?

01:16:41There is an assassin.

01:16:43We are arresting Evelyn

01:16:44to the judicial court.

01:16:44What?

01:16:45Lee?

01:16:46What?

01:16:52My lord,

01:16:54he's the suspect.

01:16:55Maid Evelyn Sterling

01:16:56grazed the prime minister.

01:16:58So,

01:16:59she's the one

01:16:59who harmed Dana.

01:17:01Chancellor Cogwell,

01:17:02she was in charge

01:17:03of the palace banquet.

01:17:05How dare you?

01:17:06How dare you

01:17:07plan assassination

01:17:08against the Empress dowager?

01:17:10Are you rebelling?

01:17:12I'm not.

01:17:13I personally verified

01:17:14the identity of everyone.

01:17:16I have no idea

01:17:16where the assassin came from.

01:17:18Of course you don't.

01:17:19Right before the banquet

01:17:20you were secretly meeting

01:17:21with the guard,

01:17:22you were so affectionate

01:17:23that you just ignore

01:17:24everything around you.

01:17:26What?

01:17:27Is this true?

01:17:28Chancellor,

01:17:28I can testify.

01:17:30That very guard

01:17:31is still at the Ministry of Rights.

01:17:32Someone.

01:17:33Bring that guard here.

01:17:34I will get to the bottom of this.

01:17:38Why hasn't Evelyn come yet?

01:17:51Lucas?

01:17:56Sir,

01:17:56here's the guard.

01:17:58Are you alright,

01:17:59Lucas?

01:18:01Evelyn Sterling,

01:18:03how do you plead?

01:18:04Please investigate Sterling.

01:18:06Since you're as an assassin,

01:18:07it's my fault indeed.

01:18:08I only beg you

01:18:09not to implicate anyone else.

01:18:10The palace is heavily guarded.

01:18:12An outsider

01:18:13could never get in.

01:18:14Evelyn must have secretly

01:18:15colluded with the assassin,

01:18:16if not for my husband's

01:18:17quick reactions.

01:18:18You should have been

01:18:20executed by now.

01:18:22Chancellor,

01:18:22I really don't know

01:18:24about the assassin.

01:18:25I beg you

01:18:25to grab me some time.

01:18:27I will cover the truth

01:18:28behind this matter.

01:18:29Enough.

01:18:30Made Evelyn Sterling

01:18:31colluded with the guard,

01:18:33disrupted palace order,

01:18:34and put the Empress

01:18:35Starwager in danger.

01:18:36Both of them

01:18:37are to be executed immediately.

01:18:39No.

01:18:47Chesler,

01:18:48we broke over water.

01:18:49Chesler,

01:18:49I'm begging you.

01:18:50Chesler.

01:18:51Chesler,

01:18:52don't.

01:18:53Chesler,

01:18:54please.

01:18:55Chesler.

01:18:57Lucas,

01:18:58I'm sorry.

01:18:59It's not my fault.

01:19:00I'm so sorry.

01:19:01I'm so sorry.

01:19:03I'm so sorry.

01:19:05I'm so sorry.

01:19:07I'm so sorry.

01:19:09Stop now.

01:19:20Don't you dare touch her.

01:19:24Your Majesty.

01:19:26Long live your Majesty.

01:19:31Long live your Majesty.

01:19:35How dare you

01:19:36condemning the innocent.

01:19:39without discerning

01:19:39right from wrong.

01:19:41This is totally outrageous.

01:19:50You'd keep going

01:19:50against Evelyn

01:19:51at every turn.

01:19:52Today,

01:19:52if I weren't here,

01:19:53you would have

01:19:54gotten your way.

01:19:56Your Majesty,

01:19:56I didn't meant

01:19:58to hurt my sister.

01:19:59Your Majesty,

01:20:00Evelyn was in charge

01:20:01of the banquet.

01:20:01But she allowed

01:20:02assassins in to hurt

01:20:03the Empress Starwager.

01:20:04I beg you.

01:20:05Your Majesty

01:20:05issued an order

01:20:06at once

01:20:07to imprison her

01:20:07for further interrogation.

01:20:09Just that God was right.

01:20:10If it weren't for

01:20:10my husband's presence today,

01:20:12the Empress Starwager

01:20:13might not have survived.

01:20:14Your Majesty,

01:20:14my life is of no consequence,

01:20:16but Evelyn must be punished.

01:20:20Your Majesty,

01:20:21my life is of no consequence,

01:20:23but Evelyn must be punished.

01:20:25If this happens again,

01:20:26who will protect the palace?

01:20:29Please.

01:20:32You must punish Evelyn.

01:20:34Adrian Montague,

01:20:35are you making decisions

01:20:36for me?

01:20:37The Empress Starwager

01:20:38has been traumatized today.

01:20:39If Your Majesty

01:20:40is known to punish Evelyn,

01:20:41what if others follow

01:20:42her example?

01:20:43The consequences

01:20:43will be unimaginable.

01:20:45I request Your Majesty

01:20:46to punish Evelyn.

01:20:47I beg Your Majesty

01:20:48to punish Evelyn.

01:20:56Is that so?

01:20:57If I have evidence

01:20:58that Evelyn's innocent,

01:20:59what should you be punished for?

01:21:07Possible.

01:21:09Nicholas,

01:21:10I'm asking you!

01:21:13They're fine.

01:21:14What's wrong about her?

01:21:16I'm willing to receive

01:21:17the same punishment.

01:21:18Okay.

01:21:20Come on.

01:21:21Read them to me.

01:21:24Your Majesty is wise.

01:21:26Following your orders,

01:21:28I've already arranged for guards

01:21:30to capture the assassin.

01:21:32Your Majesty,

01:21:33spare me!

01:21:34The assassination

01:21:34was all Josephine and Andrea's idea.

01:21:36I was truly forced into it.

01:21:38Your Majesty,

01:21:38to spare me!

01:21:39Your Majesty,

01:21:40please spare me!

01:21:40It's over!

01:21:41It's all over!

01:21:42Guards,

01:21:43take Nicholas away!

01:21:45Your Majesty,

01:21:46I've been

01:21:47serving the royals

01:21:48for decades!

01:21:50I'm absolutely loyal!

01:21:51Your Majesty,

01:21:52please,

01:21:53don't do this to me!

01:21:54Your Majesty!

01:21:55Her Majesty!

01:22:01Her Majesty!

01:22:01That's for you two.

01:22:02Your Majesty!

01:22:03Your Majesty!

01:22:04This has nothing to do with me!

01:22:05It was all her!

01:22:06She ordered me to do it!

01:22:07You're lying!

01:22:08Your Majesty,

01:22:09I was only jealous of my sister!

01:22:10The assassination

01:22:11was always man's idea!

01:22:13And,

01:22:13and taking the flu

01:22:14was all part of this act!

01:22:15Your Majesty!

01:22:16Dammit!

01:22:17How dare you betray me!

01:22:19Enough!

01:22:20Adrian Montague,

01:22:22Joseph Lee Sterling,

01:22:23as masterminds,

01:22:24will be executed right now!

01:22:29Lock Catherine in the Judicial Court.

01:22:31Wait for further orders!

01:22:32Your Majesty!

01:22:34Your Majesty!

01:22:35Please give me a chance,

01:22:36Your Majesty!

01:22:37Your Majesty!

01:22:37Please, Daddy,

01:22:38I hate you!

01:22:39I live down for you!

01:22:41All of this would have been fine!

01:22:42You're welcome.

01:22:43It's all because of yourself,

01:22:45not me!

01:22:48You brought all of this upon yourself!

01:22:58Evelyn.

01:23:01Hi.

01:23:04So, Your Majesty,

01:23:06what is your ruling?

01:23:11Lucian Prescott.

01:23:13Lucian Prescott.

01:23:16Now the criminals
