Short filmTranscript
00:00:00Lady Evelyn Sterling from the Montagues, a woman of virtue, diligent and gentle, hereby
00:00:05bestow the title of First Rank 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!
00:00:24Someone's been killed!
00:00:25Someone's been killed!
00:00:27Murder!
00:00:28Murder!
00:00:29Burnowed!
00:00:41Sister…
00:00:43Why…
00:00:43Don'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!
00:00:49If only Adrian Muntack caught my bridal bow, three years ago.
00:00:55A slow recovery is nothing but an illusion.
00:01:03If I were given another chance, I would rather forsake all of these honors.
00:01:25Master, I have already spread the word.
00:01:33The 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 just three years ago?
00:01:53The very day of the husband seeking bridal bond?
00:01:55My lady, it's time to cast your ball.
00:02:01Sister, please let me go first.
00:02:05In my past life, Josephine insists that I go first.
00:02:10Feigning modesty and humility, yet 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 kin 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 screamed relentlessly.
00:03:01But little do you know, that you're gonna suffer a lot in the evil Montague family.
00:03:05Great, great, great, great! The whole family is counting on you!
00:03:10Oh, stop flattering me! I'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.
00:03:20Sister, what do you say?
00:03:23You are truly fortunate. As your sister, I am happy for you.
00:03:29Evelyn, Lady Luck is with me this time. In this life, I will never let you overshadow me again.
00:03:41That is...
00:03:42Your Majesty! Your Majesty!
00:03:47Master, if the Empress tower 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.
00:04:00Hurry, you must darling, sir.
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's suffer a lot.
00:04:10But this 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.
00:04:26Mother, how could you say such a thing?
00:04:29Sister 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.
00:04:40Powerful 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.
00:05:11Oh, oh no.
00:05:13It actually went to a beggar.
00:05:16Sister.
00:05:16What 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?
00:05:32What's done is done, sister.
00:05:33Do not be too upset.
00:05:35Though he is of lowly birth.
00:05:37But look, at least he got a pretty face.
00:05:39It 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?
00:06:02Hey, hey, hey.
00:06:03Cease her.
00:06:04Don't let her escape.
00:06:05Master, how did this bridal ball 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 ball yourself.
00:06:22You damn girl.
00:06:24Look at the filthy beggar you've got.
00:06:27If he becomes my son-in-law,
00:06:29it's going to be a huge disgrace to us.
00:06:33In my past life, I was mistreated by the Montagues
00:06:36and used for Sterling's ambitions.
00:06:39Thinking back now,
00:06:40perhaps marrying a beggar would be a better fate.
00:06:43The rule of the bridal ball is binding.
00:06:46Since he caught the ball, you should...
00:06:48I am willing to marry him.
00:06:55What?
00:06:59My name is Evelyn Sterling.
00:07:01What's yours?
00:07:02I am Luke...
00:07:04Lucas Prescott.
00:07:11With all present as my witnesses today,
00:07:14I, Evelyn Sterling.
00:07:16Willing take Lucas Prescott as my husband.
00:07:24Are you serious?
00:07:25Yes.
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.
00:07:35It's just that I'm poor as hell.
00:07:38Marrying me would mean a life of uncertainty.
00:07:41Are you sure?
00:07:41We're not disabled or something.
00:07:46We may be poor now,
00:07:47but we can always earn our money.
00:07:50We can work hard
00:07:51to 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?
00:08:00Come on, Evelyn.
00:08:02You're sure about this?
00:08:04Married this beggar,
00:08:06and your future is ruined!
00:08:08I do not believe that is true.
00:08:10Future won't be decided like that.
00:08:12Lucas,
00:08:13he may be in rags now,
00:08:15but I can see his humility
00:08:16and 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,
00:08:25are you, sir?
00:08:25Indeed.
00:08:26If he refuses,
00:08:28that's breaking the rules
00:08:29and going to ruin their reputation.
00:08:31Seems, 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,
00:08:37don't blame us in the future.
00:08:39You won't get a share
00:08:41of the coming glory of us.
00:08:43I understand.
00:08:44The matchmaking is concluded.
00:08:47Everyone disperse.
00:08:51Sister,
00:08:52no hard feelings,
00:08:55but marrying a beggar
00:08:57means you will spend
00:08:59your life beneath me.
00:09:02You should worry about yourself.
00:09:04Life with the Montague's
00:09:05is not as easy as you imagine.
00:09:08Hmph!
00:09:16You...
00:09:16In three days,
00:09:22remember to come to propose.
00:09:23It's her or mother's pressing.
00:09:26So I might as well...
00:09:27All right!
00:09:28I'll be there.
00:09:34Today,
00:09:35the second daughter
00:09:35of the Starling family
00:09:36is to be wed.
00:09:38Her dowry includes
00:09:39a pair of gold phoenix hairpins
00:09:40and laid with precious gems,
00:09:42plenty of boats
00:09:43of fine brocade,
00:09:44three land deeds
00:09:45for silk shops
00:09:46in the Eastern District.
00:09:47Lady Josephine Starling's
00:09:48salary is worth a fortune,
00:09:50yet Lady Evelyn Starling
00:09:51has nothing at all.
00:09:52They're both daughters
00:09:53of the Starling family,
00:09:54but the difference
00:09:54between them
00:09:55is astonishing.
00:09:56Sister,
00:09:57after marrying a beggar,
00:09:58you will likely toil
00:09:59for the rest of your life.
00:10:00I wonder if you can
00:10:01even endure such life.
00:10:02Hahaha!
00:10:11It's the bridegroom!
00:10:12The bridegroom has arrived!
00:10:15Oh,
00:10:16as expected
00:10:17of the second son
00:10:18of the Montague family,
00:10:19the spectacle
00:10:20is grand indeed.
00:10:21Of course,
00:10:21the Montagues
00:10:22hold immense power.
00:10:23Marrying into their family,
00:10:24Lady Josephine Starling
00:10:25will live a life
00:10:26of endless luxury.
00:10:27Unlike Evelyn,
00:10:28marrying a beggar,
00:10:29this will certainly
00:10:30be an interesting sight
00:10:30to behold.
00:10:32My respects to my honor,
00:10:33father and mother-in-law.
00:10:34Please rise,
00:10:35my son-in-law.
00:10:35My son-in-law.
00:10:36Such an elaborate
00:10:37wedding procession
00:10:39is a spectacle
00:10:39worthy of Highgate.
00:10:41For our dear Josephine
00:10:42to be regarded
00:10:43so highly by you
00:10:44is an honor
00:10:45to the Sterling family.
00:10:49Sister,
00:10:50the auspicious hour
00:10:52is nearly over.
00:10:53Why has your husband
00:10:53not come for you?
00:10:55Could it be that
00:10:55he's not coming at all?
00:11:04I,
00:11:04your humble son-in-law,
00:11:05greet my honored
00:11:06father-in-law.
00:11:07My lady.
00:11:17My lady.
00:11:18Are you here to beg
00:11:19for the alms
00:11:19or take a bride?
00:11:21Dressed in such rags,
00:11:22do you not feel ashamed?
00:11:23Compared to Lord Montague,
00:11:25you're as far apart
00:11:26as heaven and earth.
00:11:28Just what are you wearing?
00:11:30In front of so many
00:11:31esteemed officials,
00:11:32are you not bringing
00:11:33shame upon me?
00:11:34Today is your wedding day,
00:11:36and yet you came
00:11:37dressed like this?
00:11:38Do you not find
00:11:39this is a disgrace?
00:11:40Do you not finding
00:11:41this humiliating?
00:11:42Marriage is a lifelong
00:11:43commitment,
00:11:44building upon sincerity,
00:11:45not mere appearances.
00:11:46The man I,
00:11:47Evelyn Sterling,
00:11:48have chosen
00:11:48is not one whose worth
00:11:50can be swayed
00:11:50by idle words.
00:11:51Have you not
00:11:52embarrassed us enough?
00:11:54Sir,
00:11:54Master,
00:11:55do not be angered.
00:11:57From the moment
00:11:57Evelyn steps beyond
00:11:59this threshold,
00:12:00she'll no longer
00:12:01be a Sterling.
00:12:02The auspicious hour
00:12:03has arrived.
00:12:04Bring the bride
00:12:05to the carriage!
00:12:13This is the...
00:12:14Congratulations,
00:12:18Master Sterling.
00:12:19Your son-in-law
00:12:20is truly an
00:12:20exceptional man.
00:12:24Many thanks,
00:12:25Deputy Minister.
00:12:26Please come inside.
00:12:27Off to you.
00:12:30Surely you didn't
00:12:31arrive on foot today.
00:12:32on such a big day,
00:12:35will you have
00:12:35the bride walk
00:12:36all the way
00:12:37to your home?
00:12:39Unheard of.
00:12:40Indeed.
00:12:41Not like my husband.
00:12:46My lady,
00:12:47please,
00:12:48allow me to
00:12:49take you home.
00:12:49bow to the heavens
00:13:09and the earth.
00:13:11Is this the place
00:13:12you've found us
00:13:13to 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
00:13:24to blow your cover.
00:13:25And bow to each other
00:13:26as husband and wife.
00:13:28The ceremony
00:13:35is complete!
00:13:38My lady,
00:13:39I have put you
00:13:40through hardship
00:13:40having a life
00:13:41with 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
00:13:50and rain.
00:13:52If we work hard
00:13:53from now on,
00:13:53keep this place tidy,
00:13:55it'll soon feel
00:13:56much more comfortable.
00:13:56At this moment,
00:13:58I have nothing
00:13:59of value to give you.
00:14:01The shade pendant
00:14:02was left to me
00:14:03by my father.
00:14:04I've carried it
00:14:05with me all these years.
00:14:07And now,
00:14:08I'm giving it
00:14:09to you.
00:14:14It's so precious.
00:14:16Are you certain of it?
00:14:20Alright.
00:14:21I will cherish it well.
00:14:26You're up.
00:14:49Breakfast is ready
00:14:50for you.
00:14:51Hi.
00:14:55Where are you going?
00:14:57Today is the
00:14:58wife's homecoming day.
00:14:59I made telemeds
00:15:00from my parents,
00:15:01but they're not
00:15:01quite finished.
00:15:02I need to buy
00:15:02some more threats
00:15:03and complete them
00:15:04before I return home.
00:15:05Alright.
00:15:06I'll go with you.
00:15:07Alright.
00:15:09Let's go.
00:15:14Greetings,
00:15:15your ma-
00:15:15Greetings,
00:15:15your majesty!
00:15:16Greetings,
00:15:21your majesty!
00:15:21Greetings,
00:15:21your ma-
00:15:22Who are they?
00:15:27The palace
00:15:28is too complicated.
00:15:29Once everything's settled,
00:15:30I'll reveal my identity
00:15:31to Evelyn.
00:15:32They are...
00:15:33They're here for Victor.
00:15:38Yes, 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 alright
00:15:52buying threat
00:15:52on your own?
00:15:55Yes.
00:15:56Hmm.
00:16:08Speak!
00:16:09What happened?
00:16:10The Empress Dowager
00:16:10distressed over
00:16:11your majesty's presence
00:16:12and suddenly collapsed.
00:16:13What?
00:16:14Victor,
00:16:14stay here
00:16:15and protect your 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
00:16:23Evelyn's homecoming gift.
00:16:24Yes,
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?
00:16:35Why has sister returned alone?
00:16:39Today is your homecoming day.
00:16:42Sister,
00:16:42why have you returned 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 the family?
00:16:49My husband wanted to come,
00:16:51but something urgent
00:16:52came 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 frailer
00:16:59than before.
00:17:01Had you not married
00:17:02that filthy beggar,
00:17:04perhaps I would have
00:17:04taken you as a concubine.
00:17:06At least you wouldn't
00:17:06have fallen to such a state.
00:17:08That will not be necessary.
00:17:10I am living well.
00:17:11As of for you,
00:17:12sister,
00:17:13it has been quite a few days
00:17:14since you had seen
00:17:15your husband before.
00:17:16You...
00:17:17Ugh.
00:17:18Screw you,
00:17:19Adrian.
00:17:19Went drinking with
00:17:20corsets on our wedding night,
00:17:22and now everyone knows
00:17:23we are utterly humiliating me.
00:17:25Josephine.
00:17:26Father,
00:17:31mother.
00:17:32Greetings to you both.
00:17:34Greetings to you both.
00:17:36You've returned alone.
00:17:37How can you still
00:17:38have the face to come back?
00:17:39What does your husband
00:17:40do all day,
00:17:41not even accompanying you
00:17:43for your homecoming?
00:17:44Mother,
00:17:45you're thinking
00:17:46too highly of her.
00:17:47That filthy beggar
00:17:48is probably begging
00:17:49in the streets right now.
00:17:51How could he possibly
00:17:52compare to my husband?
00:17:53Father-in-law,
00:17:56your humble son-in-law
00:17:56has brought a small gift.
00:17:58Oh.
00:17:59Oh.
00:18:00Oh.
00:18:01Hmm.
00:18:02Oh.
00:18:03Our dear Josephine
00:18:04has truly found herself
00:18:06a fine husband.
00:18:07For our daughter
00:18:07to marry such a fine gentleman,
00:18:09it must be the blessing
00:18:10she has earned
00:18:11over eight lifetimes.
00:18:12Unlike someone
00:18:14who chose a beggar
00:18:15as her husband,
00:18:16our Sterling family
00:18:17has raised you
00:18:18for so many years,
00:18:19and yet you come back
00:18:20empty-handed
00:18:21on your homecoming day.
00:18:22Indeed, sister.
00:18:25This is my homecoming gift.
00:18:27Have you fallen
00:18:28into such poverty
00:18:29that you cannot even afford
00:18:30a proper homecoming gift?
00:18:38Father,
00:18:39mother,
00:18:40these are the two
00:18:41protective talamans
00:18:42I made for you by hand.
00:18:43A blessing to you both.
00:18:44Wishing you peace
00:18:45and prosperity.
00:18:45Get out!
00:18:51What a disgrace!
00:18:53Sister,
00:18:54is this truly
00:18:55what you've brought?
00:18:56A few scraps of cloth
00:18:57with embroidery.
00:18:59How dare you present these?
00:19:01Well,
00:19:01she did marry a beggar,
00:19:02so her gift
00:19:03befits her status perfectly.
00:19:05Oh, right.
00:19:08She has married a beggar.
00:19:10What else
00:19:10could we expect
00:19:11from her?
00:19:18Master,
00:19:18madame,
00:19:19someone from the palace
00:19:20has arrived with gifts.
00:19:21They say they are
00:19:21the homecoming gifts
00:19:22from Lady Evelyn.
00:19:23Master Sirling,
00:19:28who exactly
00:19:28has your eldest daughter
00:19:30married a mountain nobility?
00:19:31Even the palace
00:19:31saw fit to have me
00:19:32personally deliver
00:19:33these gifts to you.
00:19:34You must hold
00:19:34great influence indeed.
00:19:36Gifts from the palace?
00:19:37But it must be
00:19:38from his majesty himself.
00:19:39It was personally
00:19:40arranged by the
00:19:40chief eunuch
00:19:41at his majesty's side.
00:19:42He said,
00:19:43for the Sirling family's
00:19:45eldest daughter.
00:19:50Mr. Ashford,
00:19:52you must be
00:19:52mistaken.
00:19:54All of Highgate knows
00:19:55that Evelyn
00:19:56married a beggar.
00:19:58How could she
00:19:59possibly have
00:20:00ties to anyone
00:20:01in the palace?
00:20:02Oh,
00:20:03this must surely
00:20:04be a courtesy
00:20:05to young
00:20:07Master Montague.
00:20:10Indeed.
00:20:11In this world,
00:20:12those seeking favor
00:20:13with the Montague
00:20:14family are countless.
00:20:15Even those in the palace
00:20:16are paying their respects.
00:20:18Father-in-law,
00:20:19please accept
00:20:19with joy.
00:20:20Josephine has married
00:20:23a remarkable husband.
00:20:25Just look at the
00:20:25grandeur of her
00:20:26homecoming.
00:20:27Such lavish gifts.
00:20:29Our Sterling family
00:20:30is truly honored
00:20:30beyond measure.
00:20:33The gifts have been
00:20:35delivered.
00:20:35I shall take my leave.
00:20:37Oh, take care.
00:20:38Take care.
00:20:39Sister,
00:20:42my husband
00:20:43has prepared
00:20:43two sets of
00:20:44homecoming gifts,
00:20:45seeing all these.
00:20:46Do you not feel
00:20:47ashamed?
00:20:48It's not about
00:20:49the quality of gifts,
00:20:50but the sincerity
00:20:50behind them.
00:20:51I see nothing
00:20:52inappropriate in this.
00:20:53I've poured my heart
00:20:55and effort
00:20:55into raising you,
00:20:56and yet,
00:20:56not only did you
00:20:57marry a beggar,
00:20:58but you even
00:20:58bring back
00:20:59these worthless
00:20:59rags to disgrace me.
00:21:01The Sterling family
00:21:01has no place
00:21:02for such a
00:21:03disgraceful daughter.
00:21:05Simply because
00:21:05I married Lucas,
00:21:07you feel justified
00:21:08to humiliate me
00:21:09like this.
00:21:09Josephine acts
00:21:10in the best interest
00:21:11of the Sterling family,
00:21:12unlike you
00:21:12who married a beggar
00:21:14bringing disgrace
00:21:15upon us all.
00:21:17Disgrace?
00:21:19It's only because
00:21:20Josephine married
00:21:21into wealth
00:21:21that you so readily
00:21:23indulge her.
00:21:24Insolent child!
00:21:25Such outrageous defiance!
00:21:26Who has put
00:21:27these ideas
00:21:28in your head?
00:21:28Is it not the truth?
00:21:31In your eyes,
00:21:33a daughter is
00:21:34nothing more
00:21:34than a pawn
00:21:35to secure power
00:21:36and favor.
00:21:37Outrageous!
00:21:38How dare you
00:21:39speak to your father
00:21:41in such a manner!
00:21:45Her dragon
00:21:46jade pendant?
00:21:49Outrageous!
00:21:50I must inform
00:21:52his majesty!
00:21:55Give it back to me!
00:21:57This jade pendant
00:21:58looks of fine quality.
00:22:01From where
00:22:01did you steal it,
00:22:02sister?
00:22:04It is from Lucas.
00:22:05Give it back!
00:22:08That wretched beggar?
00:22:09He will never
00:22:10possess such
00:22:11a fine pendant.
00:22:12He must have
00:22:13stolen it
00:22:14from somewhere.
00:22:15Would right have you
00:22:15to make such
00:22:16rash accusations.
00:22:17Lucas may not be
00:22:18of noble birth
00:22:18like you.
00:22:19But you believe
00:22:20that possessing
00:22:20a jade pendant
00:22:21is a rightful due.
00:22:22Yet Lucas is not
00:22:22worthy of the same.
00:22:23A worthless beggar's gift
00:22:25and you treat it
00:22:26like a treasure.
00:22:26How ignorant!
00:22:28You won the pendant?
00:22:29Very well.
00:22:30But you must
00:22:31sever all ties
00:22:32with the sterlings!
00:22:33And you...
00:22:34You...
00:22:35Father...
00:22:39Will you truly
00:22:40indulge
00:22:41Josephine's
00:22:42audacity?
00:22:43Am I not
00:22:44also your daughter?
00:22:45You insisted
00:22:46on marrying
00:22:47a beggar.
00:22:48Bringing shame
00:22:49upon the sterling family,
00:22:50you are unworthy
00:22:51to be my daughter!
00:22:52On this day forth,
00:22:53I have only one daughter,
00:22:55Josephine!
00:22:55For the rest of my life,
00:23:04I seek only to be
00:23:05with the one
00:23:06who is true of heart.
00:23:07Even if I must live
00:23:08on plain fair,
00:23:09it is better than
00:23:10enduring cold disdain
00:23:12in the sterlings.
00:23:13Since that is the case...
00:23:14Hi, Evelyn Sterling.
00:23:25Severe all ties
00:23:27with the sterling family.
00:23:29We are here
00:23:30and forth, strangers.
00:23:40All for the sake
00:23:41of a worthless beggar.
00:23:43You would sever ties
00:23:44with us.
00:23:45It is fortunate
00:23:46we never placed
00:23:47our hopes in you.
00:23:51Is that not
00:23:52what Father
00:23:52has always thought of?
00:23:53Why should I remain here
00:23:54only to be
00:23:55an eyesore to him?
00:23:58Hold it.
00:23:59Now that you wish
00:24:00to leave,
00:24:01I fear it is too late.
00:24:03Guards!
00:24:04Bring the burning
00:24:05charcoal
00:24:06from the kitchen!
00:24:07Scattering them
00:24:07across the floor!
00:24:09What are you
00:24:10trying to do?
00:24:10Your Majesty,
00:24:13something terrible
00:24:14has happened.
00:24:14Lady Evelyn
00:24:15was humiliated
00:24:15at the sterling estate.
00:24:22One's body and soul
00:24:23are bestowed
00:24:23by one's parents.
00:24:25If you wish
00:24:25to sever ties,
00:24:27you must first
00:24:27repay your parents'
00:24:28kindness.
00:24:30My Lady speaks
00:24:31most reasonably.
00:24:32Given your current state,
00:24:33it would be far too much
00:24:34to expect that you present
00:24:35anything of great value.
00:24:37then you have no choice
00:24:38but to walk barefoot
00:24:39across this bed
00:24:40of burning charcoal.
00:24:43It is pleasing
00:24:44so fiercely.
00:24:45How could anyone
00:24:46survive walking
00:24:46across them?
00:24:47I will not walk.
00:24:50Oh?
00:24:51It seems,
00:24:52dear sister,
00:24:53that you no longer
00:24:54want this jade pendant.
00:24:57Stop!
00:25:00Lucas is the only one
00:25:02who has ever treated me well.
00:25:04This jade pendant
00:25:04was left to him
00:25:05by his parents.
00:25:06Farewell.
00:25:07I will never allow
00:25:08his heartfelt gift
00:25:09to be trampled.
00:25:10I will walk.
00:25:11for the sake
00:25:32of a filthy beggar,
00:25:33you would go
00:25:34to such lengths?
00:25:35You must have
00:25:35lost your mind!
00:25:37For a mere jade pendant,
00:25:39a lady born into privilege
00:25:41would willingly walk
00:25:42across burning charcoal.
00:25:43No wonder
00:25:44she was foolish enough
00:25:45to marry a mere beggar.
00:25:46After all,
00:25:47what does a beggar
00:25:47have to his name
00:25:48but worthless trinkets?
00:25:50This jade pendant
00:25:51is likely
00:25:52his most treasured
00:25:53possession.
00:25:54No wonder
00:25:55dear sister
00:25:56cherishes it so.
00:25:58The jade pendant
00:25:59was left to me
00:26:00by my father.
00:26:01I've carried it
00:26:02with me
00:26:02all these years.
00:26:04Now,
00:26:05I'm giving it
00:26:06to you.
00:26:06For me,
00:26:15my lady.
00:26:17Lucas,
00:26:18do not worry.
00:26:20I will reclaim
00:26:20the jade pendant.
00:26:21Can you
00:26:33return the jade pendant
00:26:36to me now?
00:26:38You want it?
00:26:41Then crawl over
00:26:42and take it!
00:26:43As long as you
00:26:44crawl over,
00:26:45this jade pendant
00:26:45will be yours.
00:26:46The jade pendant
00:27:03was left to me
00:27:04by my father.
00:27:04I've carried it
00:27:05with me
00:27:05all these years.
00:27:08Now,
00:27:08I'm giving it
00:27:10to you.
00:27:12All right.
00:27:14I will cherish it,
00:27:15Will.
00:27:15you claim
00:27:40to cherish
00:27:41your love
00:27:42for that filthy beggar.
00:27:43But if you
00:27:45were disfigured,
00:27:46would your
00:27:46dearest husband
00:27:47still want you?
00:27:50Why are you
00:27:51looking at me
00:27:52like that?
00:27:52I have long
00:27:53told you
00:27:54the fate of
00:27:55a woman
00:27:55who wets
00:27:56a beggar
00:27:56can only be
00:27:57one
00:27:57to be trampled
00:27:58upon at will.
00:28:00You exhaust yourself
00:28:01trying to torment me.
00:28:03But do you
00:28:04truly believe
00:28:05you're getting
00:28:05your way?
00:28:06I want you
00:28:08to spend
00:28:09the rest
00:28:09of your days
00:28:10wallowing
00:28:10in the gutter,
00:28:12watching as I
00:28:12rise to become
00:28:13the most esteemed
00:28:14woman in the world.
00:28:24His majesty
00:28:25has arrived.
00:28:26who dares
00:28:32lay a hand
00:28:33on my
00:28:33woman?
00:28:37Evelyn,
00:28:38I'm sorry.
00:28:39I'm late.
00:28:42Just leave.
00:28:43Lucas,
00:28:45I didn't
00:28:46lose your
00:28:46Jake pendant.
00:28:47Did they
00:28:53say it
00:28:53was his
00:28:54majesty?
00:28:54How could
00:28:55it be him?
00:28:55That beggar
00:28:56is dressed
00:28:57in such
00:28:57luxurious robes.
00:28:58And those
00:28:59men,
00:28:59are they
00:29:00the imperial
00:29:00guards?
00:29:01Why would
00:29:01they take
00:29:01orders from
00:29:02a beggar?
00:29:02I heard
00:29:03that filthy
00:29:03beggar's
00:29:03brother
00:29:04once served
00:29:04in the palace.
00:29:05Is it
00:29:05natural for
00:29:06him to
00:29:06procure
00:29:07some robes?
00:29:07That
00:29:07wretch
00:29:08beggar
00:29:08has suffered
00:29:09humiliation
00:29:10last time
00:29:10and now
00:29:11he has
00:29:11come to
00:29:11regain his
00:29:12dignity?
00:29:12What a
00:29:13joke.
00:29:14A mere
00:29:14beggar
00:29:15daring to
00:29:15put on
00:29:16an act
00:29:16in the
00:29:16sterling
00:29:17estate.
00:29:17Look at
00:29:18the fine
00:29:18husband
00:29:18you've
00:29:19chosen.
00:29:19Useless
00:29:20is one
00:29:20thing,
00:29:20but to
00:29:21be so
00:29:21audacious
00:29:22as to
00:29:23steal
00:29:23from
00:29:23the
00:29:23imperial
00:29:24palace?
00:29:24If his
00:29:25majesty
00:29:25were to
00:29:25find out,
00:29:26do you
00:29:26really
00:29:26believe
00:29:27you
00:29:27will
00:29:27be
00:29:27spared?
00:29:27Deviant
00:29:28fools,
00:29:28you're
00:29:29doomed.
00:29:32You,
00:29:32what do
00:29:33you think
00:29:33you're
00:29:33doing?
00:29:34Evelyn,
00:29:34come
00:29:34with
00:29:34me.

00:47:49By the way, the jade pendant of yours, what's the story behind it?
00:47:54Why is it that they keep saying that the pendant belongs to his majesty?
00:47:59Uh, my father.
00:48:01My father once won first place in the Imperial exam.
00:48:03To encourage outstanding scholars, his majesty rewarded him with the jade pendant.
00:48:07This is how it came into our hands.
00:48:09Oh, I see.
00:48:10All they say is his majesty, his majesty.
00:48:12I thought maybe you were lying to me.
00:48:18Who's there?
00:48:19It's Madame Willems.
00:48:24Hurry up, go.
00:48:24Don't let her see you.
00:48:25Tomorrow.
00:48:26I'll come to see you tomorrow again.
00:48:35Madams.
00:48:36All the toilet bowls have been cleaned.
00:48:38Cleaned already?
00:48:40Then go sweep the entire back courtyard.
00:48:46Yes, ma'am.
00:48:47Finally done with everything.
00:49:02Why are you throwing my things?
00:49:03Madam Williams gave orders herself.
00:49:06She said at first light tomorrow, you are to deliver her medicine.
00:49:08Ma'am said the medicine must be boiled with morning dew.
00:49:11Tonight, you should wait outside.
00:49:13Morning dew.
00:49:14Morning dew?
00:49:18Everyone heard it.
00:49:19I'm not making it up.
00:49:20Why is Madam Williams always picking on me?
00:49:23Madam Williams already showed me mercy by.
00:49:25Not punishing for the theft last time.
00:49:27All she asked was for you to collect the morning dew.
00:49:29You should be grateful.
00:49:30The pendant wasn't stolen at all.
00:49:31Stop falsely accusing me.
00:49:32Not stolen?
00:49:33Are you saying his majesty gave it to you himself?
00:49:35The night air is damped with dew.
00:49:47I'm going inside to get my own blanket.
00:49:48Is that not allowed?
00:49:49What arrogance?
00:49:51This is the Imperial Palace.
00:49:52There's no such thing as yours or mine.
00:49:54Don't think that just because Malin lost so you can do whatever you want.
00:49:58Who said you could come in?
00:50:00Move aside.
00:50:00Avalyn!
00:50:11Avalyn!
00:50:12Are you alright?
00:50:14Who did this?
00:50:16Victor Langley, why is he here?
00:50:18Could it be that he is...
00:50:20You want to die?
00:50:23Your majesty!
00:50:24You're the emperor.
00:50:32You're his majesty.
00:50:35Insolent servant!
00:50:39You must never let her discover your true identity.
00:50:52My deepest apologies, your majesty.
00:50:54I merely saw someone injured and acted out of concern.
00:50:59Fortunately, it wasn't his majesty.
00:51:01But...
00:51:02Hasn't Master Langley been by his majesty's side?
00:51:05Master Langley?
00:51:07What is going on here?
00:51:09Oh...
00:51:10This young guy in here,
00:51:12he bests a striking resemblance to his majesty.
00:51:14I specifically brought him to the palace to interrogate him.
00:51:17Uh-uh.
00:51:18Hey, you, the new one.
00:51:20How can you be so ignorant of the rules?
00:51:21Don't you know you should behave yourself here?
00:51:23I humbly apologize.
00:51:25I acknowledge my error.
00:51:27Madam Langston,
00:51:28I beg your pardon.
00:51:29It's entirely my fault
00:51:30for causing this young officer concern.
00:51:32If you understand your error,
00:51:33then leave at once.
00:51:34As for you...
00:51:45Fraternizing with the guards is a grave matter.
00:51:50Yet Madam Williams merely punished her with kneeling.
00:51:53The last time she stole a jade pendant,
00:51:54that incident was also swept under the rug.
00:51:56Tell me,
00:51:58if his majesty knew she had stolen his jade pendant,
00:52:01how do you think he would handle her?
00:52:05I shall inform his majesty at once.
00:52:16It was you who stole his jade pendant.
00:52:17Let us see if he will still let you off so easily.
00:52:20Ah!
00:52:22Ah, my face!
00:52:24My face!
00:52:25Ah, my face!
00:52:27Ah, my face!
00:52:28Ah!
00:52:29You foolish servant!
00:52:30What have you put in this bowl?
00:52:32I...
00:52:32I obtained the recipe from Atalus
00:52:34who claimed they could
00:52:35enhance one's beauty
00:52:36when consumed.
00:52:40I only wished
00:52:41to do what was best for Madam Williams,
00:52:43which is why I acted so foolishly.
00:52:44How dare you serve something
00:52:46of unknown origin to ma'am
00:52:47if this rash on her face does not fade?
00:52:51How will you atone for this?
00:52:53Madam!
00:52:54Guards!
00:52:54Drag her away
00:52:55and sell her to a slave trader.
00:52:57Madam Williams,
00:52:58have mercy!
00:52:59Madam, have mercy!
00:53:00Please, Madam!
00:53:01Madam...
00:53:02Madam, have mercy!
00:53:04Madam!
00:53:06Madam...
00:53:08May I be permitted to try?
00:53:11You?
00:53:13You?
00:53:14I have studied medical texts
00:53:16and I can prepare herbal remedy
00:53:18that might alleviate
00:53:19the rash on your face.
00:53:25If...
00:53:25If my methods prove effective,
00:53:29I beg you, Madam,
00:53:31to spare Isabella's life.
00:53:32His majesty has not paid me attention
00:53:44for a long time.
00:53:46Yet I hear
00:53:46he has recently been visiting
00:53:48the Imperial Household Bureau.
00:53:50Tell me who could be
00:53:51in the Imperial Household Bureau
00:53:52to capture his majesty's interest
00:53:53so deeply.
00:53:55I don't know!
00:53:56I know nothing!
00:53:57Speak!
00:53:58I remember now!
00:54:03There is indeed someone
00:54:04who dares to do such a thing!
00:54:06Oh?
00:54:06It may not look appealing,
00:54:18but it is true
00:54:20that the rash
00:54:20has faded somewhat.
00:54:24It seems
00:54:25you do have some skill.
00:54:27Thank you for your praise, Madam.
00:54:29Adam,
00:54:30you need to only wait
00:54:31six more hours
00:54:32and the rash
00:54:33will completely disappear.
00:54:46What are you trying to do now?
00:55:01If it weren't for you today,
00:55:03I might have already
00:55:04been taken away.
00:55:06As for what happened
00:55:07before,
00:55:07I owe you an apology.
00:55:09I'll accept any punishment
00:55:10or scolding you see fit.
00:55:11Why would I scold you?
00:55:23So you're willing
00:55:24to forgive me?
00:55:26You're not
00:55:28entirely a bad person.
00:55:30It's just
00:55:31that your words
00:55:32can be utterly vicious.
00:55:34Let's go.
00:55:42Let's go.
00:55:46Your Majesty,
00:55:48I believe
00:55:49that His Majesty's
00:55:50insistence on making
00:55:51Lady Evelyn the Empress
00:55:52does not seem
00:55:53like a mere impulse.
00:55:55Lady Evelyn truly
00:55:56possesses
00:55:57remarkable qualities.
00:56:00Let's eat a chestnut cake.
00:56:02It was her!
00:56:04It was you
00:56:13who seduced
00:56:13His Majesty.
00:56:17With us
00:56:18stuck the face of yours.
00:56:19No wonder
00:56:19you can't stay
00:56:20out of trouble.
00:56:21His Majesty
00:56:21finding a bride
00:56:22outside the palace
00:56:23is wondering.
00:56:24But when did
00:56:25your lowly servants
00:56:26dare to entertain
00:56:27such wicked thoughts?
00:56:28When did Evelyn
00:56:29ever seduce
00:56:30His Majesty?
00:56:31Isabella,
00:56:31have you forgotten
00:56:32how much we suffered
00:56:33because of her?
00:56:33Evelyn never once
00:56:34provoked me intentionally.
00:56:35It was you
00:56:36who kept picking
00:56:37fights deliberately.
00:56:39Isabella!
00:56:41Do you even know
00:56:42who I am?
00:56:43How dare you act
00:56:43so insolently
00:56:44in my presence?
00:56:46Susan?
00:56:50Wait!
00:56:51The person
00:56:52standing before you
00:56:53is Lady Caldwell,
00:56:54daughter of Chancellor Caldwell.
00:56:55She's the one
00:56:56and the Empress
00:56:56has chosen
00:56:58to be Empress.
00:56:58What a fool!
00:56:59Since Lady Caldwell
00:57:00is the esteemed
00:57:01daughter of the Chancellor,
00:57:02surely you are
00:57:02a reasonable person.
00:57:04We have never even
00:57:04met His Majesty.
00:57:05So how could there be
00:57:06any talk of seduction?
00:57:07I beg you
00:57:08Lady Caldwell,
00:57:08spare me.
00:57:10I heard from Eleanor
00:57:11that you not only
00:57:11seduced His Majesty
00:57:13but also entangled
00:57:14yourself with the guards.
00:57:15That face of yours
00:57:16is too dangerous
00:57:17to keep...
00:57:18the Imperial Household Bureau
00:57:44is part of the harem.
00:57:45Since when
00:57:46is it your place
00:57:46to interfere?
00:57:48A mere old servant
00:57:49dares to raise your voice
00:57:51in front of me?
00:57:52You!
00:57:52How dare you!
00:57:54His Majesty
00:57:55and I grew up together.
00:57:56I'm the only
00:57:57candidate for emphasis.
00:57:58The harm will be mine
00:57:59sooner or later.
00:58:00Dealing the lowly maid
00:58:01is nothing to me.
00:58:03Preposterous!
00:58:04Do you even know
00:58:04who stands before you?
00:58:07Aren't you just
00:58:08a lowborn servant?
00:58:11If I don't teach you
00:58:12a lesson,
00:58:12you'll never learn
00:58:13your place!
00:58:14Restrainer as well.
00:58:16Eleanor,
00:58:17you wouldn't dare.
00:58:18I never expected you
00:58:24to be so venomous
00:58:25at heart.
00:58:26Her Majesty
00:58:26truly misjudged you.
00:58:29You didn't call yourself
00:58:30Her Majesty?
00:58:31Who are you taking
00:58:31yourself for?
00:58:32The Empress Dowager?
00:58:38A disfigured old wretch
00:58:39like you
00:58:40dare to use the title
00:58:41of the Empress Dowager?
00:58:42It seems you've grown
00:58:43tired of living.
00:58:43It seems you still
00:58:44refuse to admit
00:58:45your wrongdoing.
00:58:46What wrong have I done?
00:58:48You born into lowly status
00:58:50can only be servants
00:58:51of the palace.
00:58:51To defy your superiors
00:58:53is to seek death.
00:58:54You, Lady Catwell,
00:58:55the inner court
00:58:56is under the jurisdiction
00:58:57of His Majesty
00:58:57and the Empress Dowager.
00:58:59To deal with the palace
00:58:59servants privately
00:59:00is likely against the rules.
00:59:02I beg you to show mercy.
00:59:03As the head
00:59:03of the Imperial
00:59:04House of Heroes,
00:59:05you have allowed
00:59:06your mage
00:59:06to seduce
00:59:07His Majesty.
00:59:07Such behavior
00:59:08is a dangerous example.
00:59:09This is unforgivable.
00:59:11Fetch my wisdom.
00:59:17The Spring Blossom banquet
00:59:18will be held
00:59:19at the beginning
00:59:19of next month.
00:59:20This year,
00:59:20all the nobles
00:59:21and dignitaries
00:59:21will be in attendance.
00:59:23Everything must be
00:59:23prepared perfectly.
00:59:25Your Majesty,
00:59:26rest assured,
00:59:27I will spare no effort
00:59:28in ensuring its success.
00:59:31You insolent servant!
00:59:32How dare you
00:59:33disturb His Majesty!
00:59:35His Majesty?
00:59:37This humble maid
00:59:38greets Your Majesty
00:59:38and beg your majesty
00:59:39to visit
00:59:39and save Evelyn Sterling!
00:59:41What did you say?
00:59:42Evelyn's in danger!
00:59:48His Majesty?
00:59:50This humble maid
00:59:51greets Your Majesty
00:59:51and beg your majesty
00:59:52to visit
00:59:53and save Evelyn Sterling!
00:59:54What did you say?
00:59:56Evelyn's in danger!
01:00:02What are you doing?
01:00:10It was me
01:00:11who offended Lady Cowell.
01:00:12Did I not wish for you
01:00:13who suffered punishment
01:00:14on my account?
01:00:17Since you are so eager
01:00:18to play the hero,
01:00:19I shall grant
01:00:19your wish today!
01:00:21Enough!
01:00:22Anna Caldwell,
01:00:23Her Majesty
01:00:24advises you
01:00:24not to go too far,
01:00:25otherwise...
01:00:26You called yourself
01:00:27Her Majesty again?
01:00:28You reckless wretch!
01:00:29Today,
01:00:29I shall teach you
01:00:30the rules
01:00:30on behalf
01:00:31of the Empress Dowager!
01:00:32Anna Caldwell!
01:00:35Do you know
01:00:36who you are
01:00:36about to whip?
01:00:38You reckless wretch!
01:00:41I greet the Empress Dowager!
01:00:44I greet the Empress Dowager!
01:00:45I greet your majesty!
01:00:46The Empress Dowager?
01:00:48How could she possibly
01:00:49be the Empress Dowager?
01:00:55How could she possibly
01:00:56be the Empress Dowager?
01:00:57How is this possible?
01:01:00Her Majesty
01:01:01was merely testing you,
01:01:02but she never
01:01:03expected you
01:01:04to be so insolent.
01:01:05How dare you
01:01:06overstep and offend
01:01:06Her Majesty herself!
01:01:09Your Majesty!
01:01:10This humble subject
01:01:11admits her fault!
01:01:13I failed to recognize
01:01:14that you were
01:01:14the Empress Dowager!
01:01:15I beg your majesty
01:01:16for forgiveness!
01:01:17I beg the Emperor
01:01:17for mercy!
01:01:19The Emperor...
01:01:24This humble official
01:01:25believes this
01:01:25matters are of
01:01:26great importance.
01:01:26that concerns
01:01:27the dignity
01:01:27of the Empress Dowager.
01:01:28I implore your majesty
01:01:29to carefully
01:01:30consider the matter.
01:01:37Exactly!
01:01:38How could you
01:01:39dare to offend
01:01:40the Empress Dowager?
01:01:42Admit your fault
01:01:42at once!
01:01:43The temple subject
01:01:44admits my fault!
01:01:46Your Majesty!
01:01:47It was this wretched man
01:01:48she told me
01:01:49to seduce his majesty!
01:01:52This is why
01:01:52I lost my composure!
01:01:54Lady Caldwell!
01:01:54It was clearly used!
01:01:56But if it weren't
01:01:56for your manipulation,
01:01:57how could I have
01:01:58spoken so recklessly
01:01:59before the Empress Dowager?
01:02:00The palace maid
01:02:01Eleanor Fairfox
01:02:02has spread rumors
01:02:03and caused trouble.
01:02:04Take her away
01:02:04and sell her at once!
01:02:07The palace maid
01:02:07Eleanor Fairfox
01:02:08has spread rumors
01:02:09and caused trouble.
01:02:10Take her away
01:02:10and sell her at once!
01:02:11Your Majesty,
01:02:12have mercy!
01:02:13I did not spread rumors!
01:02:14I saw Evelyn
01:02:15flirting with the guards!
01:02:16I truly did not
01:02:17spread rumors!
01:02:18Your Majesty!
01:02:19I beg your majesty!
01:02:20You are the eldest daughter
01:02:21of the sturdy camera!
01:02:22How dare you!
01:02:22Anna Caldwell,
01:02:23I always believed you
01:02:24to be a kind-hearted,
01:02:25yet I never expected
01:02:26you to be ruthless.
01:02:28You've overstepped your place
01:02:29and still dared to dream
01:02:30of becoming Empress.
01:02:31You are sentenced
01:02:31to one year
01:02:32in the Office of Discipline
01:02:33to reflect on your actions.
01:02:34Office of Discipline?
01:02:35No!
01:02:36Your Majesty!
01:02:36This office object
01:02:37admits her fault!
01:02:38Your Majesty,
01:02:39please spare me!
01:02:40I do not want to get
01:02:40to the Office of Discipline!
01:02:43I have questions for you.
01:02:45Where is Her Majesty
01:02:54taking them?
01:03:03Evelyn!
01:03:05Lucas!
01:03:06Did the Empress
01:03:07tell you to punish you?
01:03:07Of course not!
01:03:08Her Majesty wished
01:03:09to discuss
01:03:10the Spring Blossom Banquet
01:03:11with me.
01:03:12That's a relief.
01:03:14Evelyn!
01:03:15has passed the test!
01:03:18Wonderful!
01:03:19I will reveal
01:03:20my identity to her
01:03:21and make her my Empress!
01:03:22There is no need
01:03:23to rush the coronation.
01:03:25The Ministry of Rights
01:03:26is preparing
01:03:26for the Spring Blossom Banquet
01:03:28next month.
01:03:29They may not have
01:03:30enough resources
01:03:30to manage both.
01:03:32Moreover,
01:03:33this matter is too sudden.
01:03:35I'm concerned
01:03:35the other Ministers
01:03:37may object.
01:03:38Mother,
01:03:38why not let Evelyn
01:03:40organize the Spring Blossom Banquet?
01:03:41If she can manage
01:03:42this banquet,
01:03:43it will not only prove
01:03:44her capability,
01:03:44but also make
01:03:45her coronation
01:03:45more acceptable
01:03:46to everyone.
01:03:48Her Majesty
01:03:48wants you to take charge
01:03:50of the Spring Blossom Banquet.
01:03:51Me?
01:03:53I don't know
01:03:54how to organize it.
01:03:57Don't worry.
01:03:59Trust your abilities.
01:04:00You shall triumph.
01:04:01I'll also assist you
01:04:02behind the scenes.
01:04:02all right.
01:04:14Get moving,
01:04:15all of you.
01:04:16If anyone
01:04:17dares to slack off,
01:04:18my whip
01:04:19shows no mercy.
01:04:20useless fool,
01:04:27do you still think
01:04:27you're a pampered
01:04:28young lady?
01:04:29Huh?
01:04:30Once you're in the
01:04:30office of discipline,
01:04:31no one gets to
01:04:32laze around.
01:04:37Evelyn Sterling,
01:04:39this is all your fault!
01:04:43Get it!
01:04:44Touch me!
01:04:45I'm the daughter
01:04:46of Chancellor
01:04:46Caldwell!
01:04:47But I better
01:04:48show some respect!
01:04:54The daughter
01:04:55of Chancellor
01:04:56Caldwell?
01:04:57In my past life,
01:04:57Adrian Montauk
01:04:58was promoted
01:04:58by the Empress
01:04:59Elwiger
01:04:59during the
01:05:00Spring Blossom Banquet.
01:05:01If I can
01:05:02escape this
01:05:03wretched place
01:05:03and find a way
01:05:05to bring
01:05:05Adrian to the
01:05:06Spring Blossom Banquet,
01:05:07I can surely
01:05:08turn things around.
01:05:09What a wretched place!
01:05:16They expect me,
01:05:17a lady,
01:05:17to wash my
01:05:17clothes myself?
01:05:21Where did this
01:05:22lowly maid come from?
01:05:23I...
01:05:24Lady,
01:05:27I have an
01:05:27urgent request.
01:05:29When?
01:05:29Why should I help you?
01:05:31I am a noble
01:05:32bird.
01:05:33Were it not
01:05:33for this
01:05:34temporary misfortune,
01:05:35you wouldn't
01:05:36even be worthy
01:05:37to speak to me.
01:05:39My elder sister
01:05:41Evelyn Sterling
01:05:42is the reason
01:05:43I was in prison here.
01:05:44If you help
01:05:44escape,
01:05:45I shall be
01:05:46forever
01:05:46endeavoured
01:05:47to you.
01:05:50Evelyn Sterling?
01:05:56Not bad.
01:05:57The banquet
01:05:58itinerary
01:05:58is clear
01:05:59and well-structured.
01:06:00It is evident
01:06:00that much effort
01:06:01was put into it.
01:06:02Entrusting you
01:06:03at the banquet's
01:06:03organization
01:06:04was indeed
01:06:04a wide choice.
01:06:06Many thanks
01:06:06for Your Majesty's
01:06:07praise.
01:06:07Your Majesty,
01:06:08Terrible news.
01:06:10The Office of Discipline
01:06:11is on fire.
01:06:11What?
01:06:19Sir,
01:06:19what is the
01:06:20situation inside?
01:06:21The fire has engulfed
01:06:22the entire rear courtyard.
01:06:23Nearly half the people
01:06:24couldn't make it out.
01:06:26Anna Caldwell.
01:06:27Your Majesty!
01:06:34Your Majesty!
01:06:39Your Majesty!
01:06:40This humble subject
01:06:41has come to realize
01:06:42my mistakes.
01:06:43I beg you
01:06:44to spare me
01:06:44from this punishment.
01:06:46The Office of Discipline
01:06:47is a place
01:06:47I cannot enjoy
01:06:48even for a single day longer.
01:06:49As long as you're alive,
01:06:51at least this allows me
01:06:52to account for your
01:06:52well-being to your father.
01:06:54Enough!
01:06:54With your temperament,
01:06:56staying in the Office
01:06:56of Discipline
01:06:57would serve no purpose.
01:06:58Next month,
01:06:59you shall be the one
01:07:00to marry
01:07:00into Lior Empire.
01:07:02What?
01:07:03A marriage ally?
01:07:05What?
01:07:06Are you unwilling?
01:07:07Or would you prefer
01:07:08to continue staying
01:07:09in the Office
01:07:10of Discipline?
01:07:12No!
01:07:14This humble subject
01:07:15humbly obeys
01:07:17Your Majesty's decree.
01:07:18I shall depart
01:07:20for the marriage
01:07:21alliance next month.
01:07:23However,
01:07:24I have an impertinent request.
01:07:26I was able to escape
01:07:27this calamity.
01:07:28Thanks to Josephine Sterling
01:07:29risking her life to save,
01:07:31I dare to ask
01:07:32that Your Majesty
01:07:33release Josephine Sterling
01:07:34from the Office of Discipline.
01:07:35I pay your respects
01:07:36to Your Majesty.
01:07:41I remember.
01:07:42Josephine is your sister.
01:07:44Tell me.
01:07:47How should I reward her?
01:07:52Empress Dowager,
01:07:53we were never close
01:07:54since childhood.
01:07:56Our bond is not strong.
01:07:57I don't get a say in this.
01:08:01Since you have agreed
01:08:02to the marriage alliance,
01:08:03then so be it.
01:08:04Let's go back.
01:08:07Thank you for your grace.
01:08:14Evelyn Sterling,
01:08:20I thought you had
01:08:22sword height already.
01:08:24Turns out,
01:08:25you're still that low.
01:08:27You've ruined our parents
01:08:28and montags.
01:08:29And also got me thrown
01:08:30into the Office of Discipline.
01:08:32About that,
01:08:34I will make sure
01:08:36you pay it.
01:08:37Edmund,
01:08:47let me out, please.
01:08:49This is driving me crazy.
01:08:55You don't get to complain.
01:08:57If it weren't for you
01:08:58and Josephine,
01:08:59two fools,
01:09:00I wouldn't have offended
01:09:01His Majesty
01:09:02and lost my position.
01:09:04It's all Josephine's fault.
01:09:06Husband!
01:09:09Why are you back?
01:09:13The Empress Dowager
01:09:14pardoned me.
01:09:15I'm released
01:09:16from Office of Discipline.
01:09:17After everything
01:09:18you put us through,
01:09:19you still have the guts
01:09:21to come back?
01:09:22Edmund,
01:09:23it's all because Evelyn.
01:09:25Instead of blaming
01:09:26each other here,
01:09:27we should think
01:09:28how to get back at her.
01:09:30Get back at her?
01:09:32She's like royalty now.
01:09:34How to get back at her, huh?
01:09:36I saw her once
01:09:37at the Office of Discipline.
01:09:39She was wearing
01:09:40a lonely palace-based uniform.
01:09:43I don't think
01:09:43she's royal.
01:09:45A palace maid?
01:09:47Could it be that
01:09:48His Majesty
01:09:49married her on a whim?
01:09:50Totally!
01:09:51If His Majesty
01:09:52really liked her,
01:09:53why would she be
01:09:53wearing that uniform?
01:09:55Spring Blossom Banquet
01:09:57is coming.
01:09:58All the nobles
01:09:59will be present then.
01:10:01It's the perfect opportunity.
01:10:03Spring Blossom Banquet.
01:10:05We're invited too.
01:10:07So I can go then?
01:10:11What are you
01:10:11scheming this time?
01:10:15Don't worry.
01:10:17At the banquet,
01:10:18I'll impress everyone.
01:10:20As long as I win
01:10:20the Empress Dowager's favor,
01:10:22our family will rise again.
01:10:24It's gonna be all nobles
01:10:47and high officials.
01:10:48Check everything thoroughly.
01:10:49We cannot afford
01:10:50any mistakes.
01:10:54Oh, stop worrying.
01:10:56We've confirmed
01:10:56every detail
01:10:57multiple times already.
01:10:58There won't be any problems.
01:11:00Let's hope so.
01:11:03Avalyn!
01:11:13Avalyn,
01:11:14if you like
01:11:15these pastries,
01:11:16I can get you more.
01:11:21Glad this is
01:11:22a remote area
01:11:23with no patrols.
01:11:25Otherwise,
01:11:26I can't meet like this.
01:11:35Avalyn,
01:11:36once the banquet ends,
01:11:40wait for me here.
01:11:41I got something
01:11:42to tell you.
01:11:43All right.
01:11:44I'll wait for you here.
01:11:53Husband!
01:11:54Look over there!
01:11:59Avalyn!
01:12:00And a palace guard!
01:12:05Oh, right!
01:12:06You're on duty today.
01:12:08Let's hurry back.
01:12:09Remember,
01:12:12wait for me here.
01:12:13Okay.
01:12:14Take these.
01:12:19Hey,
01:12:20you really can't go
01:12:21a moment without a man.
01:12:23Just got tossed aside
01:12:25by his majesty
01:12:26and now,
01:12:27you're ready
01:12:27with the guard.
01:12:28This is the Imperial Palace.
01:12:40Not your place,
01:12:41all right?
01:12:41Everything you do here
01:12:42is washed by his majesty
01:12:44in the Empress Gouger.
01:12:45They were just released.
01:12:46Have you learned
01:12:47your lesson?
01:12:48My husband and I
01:12:49were invited here
01:12:51as honored guests
01:12:52for the banquet.
01:12:53You're nothing but a maid.
01:12:55If you serve us well,
01:12:57I may reward you.
01:12:59If not,
01:13:00you'll get kicked out.
01:13:02You were lucky
01:13:03to have gone away
01:13:04last time.
01:13:06No one can protect you
01:13:08this time.
01:13:10What do you mean?
01:13:12I want to destroy you
01:13:14from head to toe.
01:13:17Greetings,
01:13:17Empress Dowager.
01:13:18Greetings,
01:13:29Empress Dowager.
01:13:30Evelyn,
01:13:32preparing the banquet
01:13:33must be exhausting.
01:13:34Once it is over,
01:13:35I will reward you properly.
01:13:38It's just my duty.
01:13:39Thanks for your grace.
01:13:42Your Highness,
01:13:43I have something to say.
01:13:44Speak.
01:13:46I wish to report.
01:13:47Evelyn's improper
01:13:48relationship with the guard.
01:13:52Oh?
01:13:53I saw it with my own eyes.
01:13:55Evelyn and a guard
01:13:56were extremely intimate.
01:13:58When caught,
01:13:59they tried to cover it up.
01:14:00If they're this bold
01:14:01in broad daylight,
01:14:02who knows what they do
01:14:03in secret?
01:14:05Your Highness,
01:14:06I did have a contact
01:14:08with a guard.
01:14:09But before entering
01:14:10the palace,
01:14:11we already had
01:14:11developed feelings.
01:14:12In the palace,
01:14:13we only met occasionally.
01:14:15There was nothing improper.
01:14:16If you weren't guilty,
01:14:18why did you hurry away
01:14:20in that moment you saw us?
01:14:21This should be punishable
01:14:22by death.
01:14:25Your Highness,
01:14:26I insist on seeing him.
01:14:28If this matter
01:14:29deserves punishment,
01:14:31please spare the guard's life.
01:14:33Since neither of you
01:14:35are innocent,
01:14:36Your Highness,
01:14:37please summon the guard
01:14:39and execute them.
01:14:40Yes, Your Highness,
01:14:41punish them both
01:14:42to uphold palace discipline.
01:14:43You two want me
01:14:46to execute the guard?
01:14:51You two want me
01:14:52to execute the guard?
01:14:56In the palace,
01:14:57it is indeed forbidden
01:14:58for palace maids
01:14:59and guards to mingle.
01:15:01But Evelyn,
01:15:02for organizing the banquet,
01:15:03put in great effort.
01:15:05She's redeemed herself.
01:15:06I have decided
01:15:07to spare her
01:15:08from punishment.
01:15:09Bye!
01:15:09Evelyn,
01:15:10lead me to the banquet site.
01:15:11Yes.
01:15:25Farewell,
01:15:26Your Highness.
01:15:28She escaped again.
01:15:30Why is she
01:15:31always so lucky?
01:15:32First the Emperor
01:15:33protected her
01:15:34and now the Empress dowager.
01:15:35Even she was entrusted
01:15:36with the whole banquet?
01:15:38Since she's in charge
01:15:39of the banquet,
01:15:40we can just...
01:15:46Your Majesty,
01:15:49the banquet is that way.
01:15:51Where are you going?
01:15:51It's about to begin.
01:15:53You'll be late.
01:15:54I've thought it over.
01:15:55I should let her know
01:15:56the truth before the banquet.
01:15:58Go tell Evelyn
01:15:59to meet me
01:16:00where we were before.
01:16:04Eunuch Langley.
01:16:06Come here.
01:16:06What's going on?
01:16:16We've done a great job
01:16:17this time.
01:16:18They're talking about
01:16:19how good the banquet is.
01:16:20Even an Empress dowager
01:16:21looks pleased.
01:16:22That's great.
01:16:25Someone is waiting
01:16:25for you in that courtyard.
01:16:26Go.
01:16:27How is it?
01:16:31Assassins,
01:16:31protect the Empress dowager!
01:16:33What's going on inside?
01:16:37An assassin disguised
01:16:38in sedan, sir.
01:16:39Lord Montague
01:16:39took the blow
01:16:40for Her Majesty
01:16:41and the assassin escaped.
01:16:42What?
01:16:44Take her away!
01:16:46What are you doing?
01:16:47There is an assassin!
01:16:49We are arresting Evelyn
01:16:50to the judicial court!
01:16:51What?
01:16:51Me?
01:16:51Me?
01:16:52Me?
01:16:52Me?
01:16:52Me?
01:16:52Me?
01:16:52Me?
01:16:52Me?
01:16:52Me?
01:16:53Me?
01:16:53Me?
01:16:53Me?
01:16:59My lord,
01:17:00he's the suspect.
01:17:01Maid Evelyn Sterling,
01:17:02he's the Prime Minister.
01:17:04So,
01:17:05she's the one
01:17:05who harmed Anna.
01:17:07Chancellor Caldwell,
01:17:09she was in charge
01:17:09of the palace banquet.
01:17:11How dare you?
01:17:12How dare you
01:17:13plan assassination
01:17:14against the Empress dowager?
01:17:16Are you rebelling?
01:17:18I'm not.
01:17:19I personally verified
01:17:20the identity of everyone.
01:17:22I have no idea
01:17:23where the assassin came from.
01:17:24Of course you don't.
01:17:25Right before the banquet
01:17:26you were secretly meeting
01:17:27with the guard.
01:17:28You were so affectionate
01:17:29that you just ignore
01:17:30everything around you.
01:17:31What?
01:17:33Is this true?
01:17:34Chancellor,
01:17:35I can testify.
01:17:36That very guard
01:17:37is still at the Ministry of Rights.
01:17:38Someone.
01:17:39Bring that guard here.
01:17:40I will get to the bottom
01:17:41of this.
01:17:44Why hasn't Evelyn come yet?
01:17:50Huh?
01:17:50Sir,
01:18:03here's the guard.
01:18:04Are you alright?
01:18:05Lucas?
01:18:08Evelyn Sterling,
01:18:09how do you plead?
01:18:10Please investigate Sterling.
01:18:12Since you're as an assassin,
01:18:13it's my fault indeed.
01:18:14I only beg you
01:18:15not to implicate anyone else.
01:18:16The palace is heavily guarded.
01:18:18An outsider
01:18:19could never get in.
01:18:20Evelyn must have secretly
01:18:21colluded with the assassin,
01:18:22if not from a husband's
01:18:24quick reaction.
01:18:25You should have been
01:18:26executed by now.
01:18:28Chancellor,
01:18:28careful.
01:18:29I really don't know
01:18:30about the assassin.
01:18:31I beg you
01:18:31to grant me some time.
01:18:33I will cover the truth
01:18:34behind this matter.
01:18:35Enough.
01:18:36Made Evelyn Sterling
01:18:37colluded with the guard,
01:18:39disrupted palace order,
01:18:40and put the Empress
01:18:41Starwager in danger.
01:18:42Both of them
01:18:43are to be executed
01:18:44immediately.
01:18:52No.
01:18:53Chesler,
01:18:54we broke over water.
01:18:55Chesler,
01:18:55I'm begging you.
01:18:57Chesler!
01:18:57Chesler,
01:18:58don't!
01:18:59Chesler,
01:19:00please.
01:19:01Chesler!
01:19:03Lucas,
01:19:04I'm sorry.
01:19:05It's not my fault.
01:19:06I'm so sorry.
01:19:14Stop now.
01:19:26Don't you dare touch her.
01:19:29Your Majesty.
01:19:32Long live your Majesty.
01:19:37Long live your Majesty.
01:19:39How dare you
01:19:42condemning the innocent
01:19:44without discerning
01:19:45right from wrong.
01:19:47This is totally
01:19:48outrageous.
01:19:55You keep going
01:19:56against Evelyn
01:19:57every turn.
01:19:58Today,
01:19:58if I weren't here,
01:20:00you would have
01:20:00gotten your way.
01:20:01Your Majesty,
01:20:02I didn't meant
01:20:04to hurt my sister.
01:20:05Your Majesty,
01:20:06Evelyn was in charge
01:20:07of the banquet
01:20:07that she allowed
01:20:08assassins in
01:20:09to hurt the
01:20:09Empress Dowager.
01:20:10I beg you.
01:20:11Your Majesty
01:20:11issued an order
01:20:12at once
01:20:13to imprison her
01:20:13for further interrogation.
01:20:15Chesler,
01:20:15Gull was right.
01:20:16If it weren't
01:20:16for my husband's
01:20:17presence today,
01:20:18the Empress Dowager
01:20:19might not have survived.
01:20:20Your Majesty,
01:20:20my life is of no consequence,
01:20:22but Evelyn must be punished.
01:20:26Your Majesty,
01:20:27my life is of no consequence,
01:20:29but Evelyn must be punished.
01:20:31If this happens again,
01:20:33who will protect
01:20:34the palace?
01:20:37Police.
01:20:38You must punish
01:20:39Evelyn.
01:20:40Adrian Montague,
01:20:41are you making
01:20:42decisions for me?
01:20:43The Empress Dowager
01:20:44has been traumatized today.
01:20:45If Your Majesty
01:20:46doesn't punish Evelyn,
01:20:47what if others
01:20:48follow her example?
01:20:49The consequences
01:20:50would be unimaginable.
01:20:51I request Your Majesty
01:20:52to punish Evelyn.
01:20:53I beg Your Majesty
01:20:54to punish Evelyn.
01:21:01Is that so?
01:21:03If I have evidence
01:21:04that Evelyn's innocent,
01:21:05what should you
01:21:06be punished for?
01:21:13Possible.
01:21:15Nicholas,
01:21:16I'm asking you!
01:21:19They're fine.
01:21:20What's wrong about her?
01:21:21I'm willing to receive
01:21:23the same punishment.
01:21:24Okay!
01:21:26Come on!
01:21:27Bring them to me!
01:21:30Your Majesty is wise!
01:21:32Following your orders,
01:21:34I've already arranged for guards
01:21:36to capture the assassin.
01:21:38Your Majesty,
01:21:39spare me!
01:21:40The assassination
01:21:41was all
01:21:41Josephine and Andrew's idea.
01:21:43I was surely forced into it.
01:21:44Your Majesty,
01:21:44spare me!
01:21:45Your Majesty,
01:21:46please spare me!
01:21:46It's over!
01:21:47It's all over!
01:21:48Guards,
01:21:49take Nicholas away!
01:21:51Your Majesty,
01:21:52I've been
01:21:53serving the royals
01:21:54for decades!
01:21:56I'm absolutely loyal!
01:21:58Your Majesty,
01:21:58please,
01:21:59don't do this to me!
01:22:00Your Majesty!
01:22:06Your Majesty!
01:22:07That's for you two.
01:22:09Your Majesty!
01:22:09Your Majesty!
01:22:10This has nothing to do with me!
01:22:11It was all her!
01:22:12She ordered me to do it!
01:22:13Your night!
01:22:14Your Majesty,
01:22:15I was only jealous of my sister
01:22:16that assassination
01:22:17was all Adrian's idea!
01:22:19And,
01:22:19and taking the flu
01:22:20was all part of this act!
01:22:21Your Majesty!
01:22:22Damn it!
01:22:23How dare you betray me!
01:22:25Enough!
01:22:26Adrian Montague,
01:22:28Josephine Sterling,
01:22:29as masterminds,
01:22:31will be executed right now!
01:22:35Lock Catherine
01:22:36in the Judicial Court.
01:22:37Wait for further orders!
01:22:38Your Majesty!
01:22:40Your Majesty!
01:22:41Please give me a chance,
01:22:42Your Majesty!
01:22:42Your Majesty!
01:22:43Your Majesty!
01:22:44Please, Dad!
01:22:44I hate you!
01:22:45If that were you,
01:22:46all of this would have been fine!
01:22:48No, no.
01:22:50It's all because of yourself,
01:22:51not me.
01:22:54You brought all of this upon yourself.
01:23:04Evelyn.
