00:00:00Lady Evelyn 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!
00:00:24Someone's been killed!
00:00:26Murder!
00:00:27Murder!
00:00:28Murder!
00:00:29Murder!
00:00:41Duh!!
00:00:42ay!
00:00:43What!?
00:00:44Don't call me Sister!
00:00:45You are unworthy.
00:00:46We are both daughters of the Sterling Family.
00:00:47Why should you live better than me?
00:00:49If only Agent Montague caught my findeem bowl 3 years ago.
00:00:55Slamming over is nothing but an illusion.
00:01:02If 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. Whichever of you marries well shall bring glory to our family.
00:01:50Have I been reborn just three years ago? The 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.
00:02:09Feigning modesty and humility. Yet now, it seems, Josephine has also been reborn.
00:02:20Lady Josephine, this way! Give it to me! Lady Josephine, come on!
00:02:27In this life, I have to marry Adrian!
00:02:38It's him, 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!
00:02:50Three years later, Adrian shall rise in rank and I shall become a noble lady of honor!
00:02:56Josephine, you have screamed relentlessly.
00:03:01But little do you know that you're gonna suffer a lot in the evil Montague family.
00:03:06Great, great, great! The whole family is counting on you!
00:03:10Oh, stop flattering me! I'm doing this just for our family.
00:03:13Once 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?
00:03:24You are truly fortunate. As your sister, I am happy for you.
00:03:28Evelyn, Lady Luck is with me this time. In this life, I will never let you overshadow me again.
00:03:35That is...
00:03:42Your Majesty! Your Majesty!
00:03:46Master, if the Empress tower you find, you're dressed like this.
00:03:51Mother's been always pressing me. I can only leave the palace for some peace.
00:03:56This is a perfect chance to experience the life of ordinary folk.
00:03:59Let's have a look.
00:04:00In my past life, that beggar caught my bridal bull. I had to run away and then 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. And you better aim as well 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.
00:04:38Powerful or not, rich or not, it's only written on water.
00:04:45In this life, I seek only a true companion to live a peaceful life till the end.
00:04:51It's him. It's him. The beggar that Josephine ran away from.
00:05:09Oh no, it actually went to a beggar.
00:05:16Sister, what terrible luck you have. A beggar out of so many people down there. How do you expect father to hold his head high?
00:05:23Damn it! With so many people down there, how could you cast it to a beggar? Are you deliberately trying to shame me?
00:05:32What's done is done, sister. Do not be too upset. Though he is of lowly birth, but look, at least he got a pretty face.
00:05:39It is only a pity for you, sister, raising comfort and luxury. But now bound to a beggar, you shall have to labor yourself to earn your bread.
00:05:48Now this will be quite the spectacle. The esteemed Lady Evelyn will marry a beggar? Everyone is watching. If she refuses, it's going to ruin their credit. Who would associate with them more?
00:05:58Hey! Hey! Hey! Seize her! Don't let her escape!
00:06:05Master, how did this bridal ball end up in your hands? What should we do now? It's the Scottish!
00:06:11I'm dressed in such rags. She won't agree.
00:06:17Sister, why are you running? You cast the bridal ball yourself!
00:06:22You damn girl! Look at the filthy beggar you've got!
00:06:25If he becomes my son-in-law, it's gonna 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 better fate.
00:06:43The rule of the bridal ball is binding. Since he caught the ball, you should...
00:06:49I am willing to marry him!
00:06:50What?!
00:06:51My name is Evelyn Sterling. What's yours?
00:07:03I am Luke... Lucas Prescott.
00:07:07With all present as my witnesses today, I, Evelyn Sterling.
00:07:15I am willing to take Lucas Prescott as my husband.
00:07:24Are you serious?
00:07:27Yeah. The ball is in your hands. You wanna... reject me?
00:07:33I didn't. It's just that I'm poor as hell. Marrying me would mean a life of a certainty. Are you sure?
00:07:42We're not disabled or something. We may be poor now, but we can always earn our money.
00:07:49We 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! You're really gonna marry him?!
00:08:01Evelyn, you're sure about this? Marry this beggar and your future is ruined!
00:08:07I do not believe that is true. Future won't be decided like that.
00:08:12Lucas, he may be in rags now, but I can see his humility and good manner.
00:08:18He's gonna make a difference maybe.
00:08:20You are... Rule is rule. You're not eating your words, are you sir?
00:08:26Indeed. If he refuses, that's breaking the rules and gonna ruin their reputation.
00:08:30Seems well, she has to marry him. Indeed, marry him! Indeed, marry him!
00:08:35Since you wanna marry him, don't blame us in the future.
00:08:40You won't get a share of the coming glory of us.
00:08:43I understand.
00:08:45The matchmaking is concluded. Everyone disperse.
00:08:48Sister, no hard feelings, but marrying a beggar means you will spend your life beneath me.
00:09:02You should worry about yourself. Life with the Monticeous is not as easy as you imagine.
00:09:08You...
00:09:17In three days, remember to come to propose.
00:09:24It's her or mother's pressing, so I might as well...
00:09:28Alright, I'll be there.
00:09:29I'll be there.
00:09:34Today, the second daughter of the Sarlene family is to be wed.
00:09:38Her dowry includes a pair of gold Phoenix hairpins laid with precious gems,
00:09:43plenty of boats of fine brocade,
00:09:45three land deeds for silk shops in the Eastern District.
00:09:48Lady Josephine Sterling's salary is worth a fortune,
00:09:51yet Lady Evelyn Sterling has nothing at all.
00:09:53They're both daughters of the Sarlene family, but the difference between them is astonishing.
00:09:57Sister, after marrying a beggar, you will likely toil for the rest of your life.
00:10:01I wonder if you can even endure such life.
00:10:12It's the bridegroom. The bridegroom has arrived.
00:10:16Oh, as expected of the second son of the Montague family.
00:10:20The spectacle is grand indeed.
00:10:22Of course, the Montagues hold immense power.
00:10:23Marrying into their family, Lady Josephine Sterling will live a life of endless luxury.
00:10:28Unlike Evelyn, marrying a beggar, this will certainly be an interesting sight to behold.
00:10:32My respects to my honor, father and mother-in-law.
00:10:35Please rise, my son-in-law.
00:10:37Such an elaborate wedding procession is a spectacle worthy of Highgate.
00:10:42For our dear Josephine to be regarded so highly by you is an honor to the Sterling family.
00:10:46Sister, the auspicious hour is nearly over. Why has your husband not come for you?
00:10:55Could it be that he's not coming at all?
00:10:57I, your humble son-in-law, greet my honored father-in-law.
00:11:07My lady.
00:11:17My 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?
00:11:24Compared to Lord Montague, you're as far apart as heaven and earth.
00:11:27Just what are you wearing in front of so many esteemed officials? Are you not bringing shame upon me?
00:11:34Today is your wedding day. And yet you came dressed like this? Do you not find this is a disgrace? Do you not finding this humiliating?
00:11:43Marriage is a lifelong commitment, building upon sincerity, not mere appearances. The men I, Evelyn Sterling, have chosen is not one whose worth can be swayed by idle words.
00:11:51Have you not embarrassed us enough?
00:11:54Master, do not be angered. From the moment Evelyn steps beyond this threshold, she'll no longer be a Sterling.
00:12:02The auspicious hour has arrived! Bring the bride to the carriage!
00:12:13This is the...
00:12:14Congratulations, Master Sterling. Your son-in-law is truly an exceptional man.
00:12:24Many thanks, Deputy Minister. Please come inside.
00:12:27After you.
00:12:31Surely you didn't arrive on foot today.
00:12:34On such a big day, will you have the bride walk all the way to your home?
00:12:39Unheard of.
00:12:41Indeed. Not like my husband.
00:12:44M'lady, please, allow me to take you home.
00:12:49M'lady, please, allow me to take you home.
00:13:08Bow to the heavens and the earth!
00:13:11Is this the place they've found us to live in?
00:13:13M'lady, please, allow me to take you home.
00:13:15Bow to the elders.
00:13:20A shabby place like this, is it even fit for living?
00:13:23I just didn't want you to blow your cover.
00:13:25M'lady, please, allow me to take you home.
00:13:26And bow to each other as husband and wife.
00:13:28The ceremony is complete!
00:13:29M'lady, I have put you through hardship, having a life with me in such a shabby place.
00:13:42Not at all.
00:13:44I actually think it's rather spacious.
00:13:48At least, it shields us from the wind and rain.
00:13:51If we work hard from now on, keep this place tidy, it'll soon feel much more comfortable.
00:13:56At this moment, I have nothing of value to give you.
00:14:00The shade pendant was left to me by my father.
00:14:04I've carried it with me all these years.
00:14:06And now, I'm giving it to you.
00:14:09It's so precious.
00:14:16Are you certain of it?
00:14:20Alright.
00:14:22I will cherish it well.
00:14:39You're up.
00:14:49Breakfast is ready.
00:14:50For you.
00:14:54Hi.
00:14:56Where are you going?
00:14:58Today is the wife's homecoming day.
00:14:59I made telemeds for my parents, but they're not quite finished.
00:15:02I need to buy some more threads and complete them before I return home.
00:15:05Alright.
00:15:06I'll go with you.
00:15:07Alright.
00:15:09Let's go.
00:15:14Greetings, your ma-
00:15:15Greetings, your majesty!
00:15:20Greetings, your majesty!
00:15:21Greetings, your majesty!
00:15:22Greetings, your ma-
00:15:26Who are they?
00:15:28The palace is too complicated.
00:15:29Once everything's settled, I'll reveal my identity to Evelyn.
00:15:32They are...
00:15:36They're here for Victor.
00:15:37Yes, yes.
00:15:42I used to serve in the palace.
00:15:43These are all old acquaintances.
00:15:49Evelyn, I'll help Victor to entertain the guests.
00:15:51Will you be alright buying thread on your own?
00:15:53Yes.
00:15:54Speak!
00:15:55What happened?
00:15:56The Empress Dowager distressed over your majesty's presence and suddenly collapsed.
00:15:59What?
00:16:00Vector!
00:16:01Stay here and protect Evelyn.
00:16:02Let's head back!
00:16:03Yes, your majesty!
00:16:04Get someone to deliver some valuable gifts.
00:16:05To Stirling Estate.
00:16:06Say that they're Evelyn's homecoming gifts.
00:16:07Yes, your majesty!
00:16:08Let's go!
00:16:09Father!
00:16:10Father!
00:16:11Mother!
00:16:12Your daughter has returned!
00:16:13Father!
00:16:14Why has sister returned alone?
00:16:15Today is your homecoming day!
00:16:16Today is your homecoming day!
00:16:17Sister, why have you returned alone?
00:16:19Are you ashamed of your beggar husband?
00:16:20So you didn't even bring him to me today?
00:16:21Why are you ashamed of your beggar husband?
00:16:22So you didn't even bring him to me today?
00:16:23No!
00:16:24No!
00:16:25No!
00:16:26No!
00:16:27No!
00:16:28No!
00:16:29No!
00:16:30No!
00:16:31No!
00:16:32No!
00:16:33No!
00:16:34No!
00:16:35No!
00:16:36No!
00:16:38No!
00:16:39No!
00:16:44What?
00:16:45What?
00:16:47No!
00:16:48No!
00:16:49Whatad?
00:16:50No!
00:16:51Good bad!
00:16:52No!
00:16:53Ah don't you show your love proper94!
00:16:58Did we have such a taste of Dr Antonio?
00:17:00This is Becca Cavalkind!
00:17:02Had you not married that filthy beggar, perhaps I would have taken you as a concubine.
00:17:06At least you wouldn't have fallen to such a state.
00:17:08That will not be necessary.
00:17:10I am living well.
00:17:11As of for you, sister, it has been quite a few days since you had seen your husband before.
00:17:16You...
00:17:17Screw you, Adrian.
00:17:19Went drinking with corsets on our wedding night, and now everyone knows we are utterly humiliating me.
00:17:25Just the feed.
00:17:30Father, mother.
00:17:32Greetings to you both.
00:17:34Greetings to you both.
00:17:36You've returned alone.
00:17:37How can you still have the face to come back?
00:17:39What does your husband do all day, not even accompanying you for your homecoming?
00:17:44Mother, you're thinking too highly of her.
00:17:47That filthy beggar is probably begging in the streets right now.
00:17:51How could he possibly compare to my husband?
00:17:54Father-in-law, your humble son-in-law has brought a small gift.
00:17:58Oh, oh, oh.
00:18:00Oh, oh, oh.
00:18:02Oh, oh, oh, oh.
00:18:03Our dear Josephine has truly found herself a fine husband.
00:18:07For our daughter to marry such a fine gentleman, it must be the blessing she has earned over eight lifetimes.
00:18:12Oh, oh, oh.
00:18:12Unlike someone who chose a beggar as her husband, our sterling family has raised you for so many years, and yet you come back empty-handed on your homecoming day.
00:18:23Indeed, sister.
00:18:24Sister, this is my homecoming gift.
00:18:27Have you fallen into such poverty that you cannot even afford a proper homecoming gift?
00:18:38Father, mother, these are the two protective telemins I made for you by hand.
00:18:43A blessing to you both.
00:18:44Wishing you peace and prosperity.
00:18:45Oh, oh, oh.
00:18:49Get out!
00:18:51What a disgrace!
00:18:53Sister, is this truly what you've brought?
00:18:56A few scraps of cloth with embroidery.
00:18:59How dare you present these?
00:19:01Well, she did marry a beggar.
00:19:03So her gift befits her status perfectly.
00:19:06Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha.
00:19:07All right.
00:19:08She has married a beggar.
00:19:10What else could we expect from her?
00:19:12Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha.
00:19:18Master, madame, someone from the palace has arrived with gifts.
00:19:21They say they are the homecoming gifts from Lady Evelyn.
00:19:27Master Sterling, who exactly has your eldest daughter married a mountain in ability?
00:19:31Even the palace saw fit to have me personally deliver these gifts to you.
00:19:34You must hold great influence indeed.
00:19:36Gifts from the palace?
00:19:37Then it must be from his majesty himself.
00:19:39Oh, it was personally arranged by the chief eunuch at his majesty's side.
00:19:42He said, for the Sterling family's eldest daughter.
00:19:49Oh, Mr. Ashford, you must be mistaken.
00:19:54All of Highgate knows that Evelyn married a beggar.
00:19:58How could she possibly have ties to anyone in the palace?
00:20:02Oh, this must surely be a courtesy to young Master Montague.
00:20:08Indeed.
00:20:11In this world, those seeking favor with the Montague family are countless.
00:20:15Even those in the palace are paying their respects.
00:20:18Father-in-law, please accept with joy.
00:20:22Josephine has married a remarkable husband.
00:20:25Just look at the grandeur of her homecoming.
00:20:27Such lavish gifts.
00:20:29Our Sterling family is truly honored beyond measure.
00:20:31The gifts have been delivered.
00:20:35I shall take my leave.
00:20:37Oh, take care.
00:20:38Take care.
00:20:41Sister, my husband has prepared two sets of homecoming gifts.
00:20:45Seeing all these, do you not feel ashamed?
00:20:48It's not about the quality of gifts, but the sincerity behind them.
00:20:51I see nothing inappropriate in this.
00:20:53I have poured my heart and effort into raising you, and yet, not only did you marry a beggar,
00:20:58but you even bring back these worthless rags to disgrace me.
00:21:01The Sterling family has no place for such a disgraceful daughter.
00:21:05Simply because I married Lucas, you feel justified to humiliate me like this.
00:21:09Josephine acts in the best interest of the Sterling family, unlike you, who married a beggar,
00:21:14bringing disgrace upon us all.
00:21:17Disgrace?
00:21:19It's only because Josephine married into wealth that you so readily indulge her.
00:21:24Insolent, child!
00:21:25Such outrageous defiance!
00:21:26Who has put these ideas in your head?
00:21:28Is it not the truth?
00:21:31In your eyes, a daughter is nothing more than a pawn to secure power and favor.
00:21:37Outrageous!
00:21:37How dare you!
00:21:40Speak to your father in such a manner!
00:21:45A dragon jade pendant?
00:21:49Outrageous!
00:21:51And now, I must inform his majesty.
00:21:55Give it back to me!
00:21:57This jade pendant looks of fine quality.
00:22:01From where did you steal it, sister?
00:22:04That is from Lucas.
00:22:05Give it back!
00:22:07That wretched beggar?
00:22:09He will never possess such a fine pendant.
00:22:12He must have stolen it from somewhere.
00:22:15Would right have you to make such rash accusations.
00:22:17Lucas may not be of noble birth like you, but you believe that possessing a jade pendant is a rightful due.
00:22:22Yet Lucas is not worthy of the same.
00:22:23A worthless beggar's gift.
00:22:25And you treat it like a treasure.
00:22:26How ignorant.
00:22:27You won the pendant?
00:22:28You won the pendant?
00:22:29Very well.
00:22:30But you must sever all ties with the Sterlings.
00:22:34You.
00:22:38Father.
00:22:40Will you truly indulge Josephine's audacity?
00:22:43Am I not also your daughter?
00:22:45You insisted on marrying a beggar.
00:22:48Bringing shame upon the Sterling family, you are unworthy to be my daughter.
00:22:52On this day forth, I have only one daughter.
00:22:55Josephine!
00:22:55For the rest of my life, I seek only to be with the one who is true of heart.
00:23:07Even if I must live on plain fare, it is better than enduring cold disdain in the Sterlings.
00:23:13Since that is the case...
00:23:14Hi, Evelyn Sterling.
00:23:25Severe all ties with the Sterling family.
00:23:29We are here and forth, strangers.
00:23:40All for the sake of a worthless beggar.
00:23:43You would sever ties with us.
00:23:45It is fortunate we never placed our hopes in you.
00:23:51Is that not what Father has always thought of?
00:23:53Why should I remain here only to be an eyesore to him?
00:23:58Hold it.
00:23:59Now that you wish to leave, I fear it is too late.
00:24:03Guards!
00:24:04Bring the burning charcoal from the kitchen.
00:24:07Scattering them across the board.
00:24:09What are you trying to do?
00:24:10Your Majesty, something terrible has happened.
00:24:14Lady Evelyn was humiliated at the Sterling estate.
00:24:22One's body and soul are bestowed by One's parents.
00:24:25If you wish to sever ties, you must first repay your parents' kindness.
00:24:30My Lady speaks most reasonably.
00:24:32Given your current state, it would be far too much to expect that you present anything of great value.
00:24:37Then you have no choice but to walk barefoot across this bed of burning charcoal.
00:24:43It is blazing so fiercely.
00:24:45How could anyone survive walking across them?
00:24:47I will not walk.
00:24:48Oh, it seems, dear sister, that you no longer want this jade pendant.
00:24:57Stop!
00:25:00Lucas is the only one who has ever treated me well.
00:25:04This jade pendant was left to him by his parents.
00:25:06Farewell.
00:25:07I will never allow his heartfelt gift to be trampled.
00:25:10I will walk.
00:25:11For the sake of a filthy beggar, you would go to such lengths?
00:25:34You must have lost your mind.
00:25:38For a mere jade pendant, a lady born into privilege would willingly walk across burning charcoal.
00:25:43No wonder she was foolish enough to marry a mere beggar.
00:25:46After all, what does a beggar have to his name but worthless trinkets?
00:25:50This jade pendant is likely his most treasured possession.
00:25:55No wonder, dear sister, cherishes it so.
00:25:57The jade pendant was left to me by my father.
00:26:01I've carried it with me all these years.
00:26:04And now, I'm giving it to you.
00:26:14For me, my lady.
00:26:17Lucas, do not worry.
00:26:20I will reclaim the jade pendant.
00:26:21Can you return the jade pendant to me now?
00:26:38You want it?
00:26:41Then crawl over and take it.
00:26:43As long as you crawl over, this jade pendant will be yours.
00:26:51The jade pendant was left to me by my father.
00:27:05I've carried it with me all these years.
00:27:07And now, I'm giving it to you.
00:27:12All right.
00:27:14I will cherish it, Will.
00:27:21You claim to cherish your love for that filthy beggar.
00:27:44But if you were disfigured, would your dearest husband still want you?
00:27:48Why are you looking at me like that?
00:27:53I have long told you the fate of a woman who wets a beggar
00:27:56can only be one to be trampled upon at will.
00:28:00You exhaust yourself trying to torment me.
00:28:03But do you truly believe you'll get your way?
00:28:07I want you to spend the rest of your days wallowing in the gutter,
00:28:12watching as I rise to become the most esteemed woman in the world.
00:28:18Who dares to lay a hand on my woman?
00:28:37Evelyn, I'm sorry.
00:28:39I'm late.
00:28:42Just leave.
00:28:43Lucas,
00:28:44I didn't lose your jade pendant.
00:28:48Did they say it was his majesty?
00:28:54How could it be him?
00:28:55That beggar is dressed in such luxurious robes.
00:28:58And those men, are they the imperial guards?
00:29:01Why would they take orders from a beggar?
00:29:02I heard that filthy beggar's brother once served in the palace.
00:29:05Is it natural for him to procure some robes?
00:29:07That wretched beggar has suffered humiliation last time,
00:29:10and now he has come to regain his dignity?
00:29:12Ha!
00:29:13What a joke!
00:29:14A mere beggar daring to put on an act in the sterling estate?
00:29:17Look at the fine husband you've chosen.
00:29:19Useless is one thing,
00:29:21but to be so audacious?
00:29:22As to steal from the imperial palace?
00:29:24If his majesty were to find out,
00:29:26do you really believe you will be spared?
00:29:27Deviant fools,
00:29:28you're doomed!
00:29:32You!
00:29:32What do you think you're doing?
00:29:34Evelyn,
00:29:34come with me.
00:29:36Evelyn,
00:29:36what's wrong?
00:29:47Who did this?
00:29:49Lucas.
00:29:57Yes, it was me.
00:29:58So what?
00:29:58I was only trying to help my dear sister.
00:30:00Who would have thought?
00:30:01She would walk barefoot across the burning charcoal.
00:30:04I wonder what she was thinking.
00:30:05Such a fool.
00:30:06Silence!
00:30:07And who do you think you are
00:30:09to dare raise your voice before me?
00:30:11Yes,
00:30:12I'm insulting her
00:30:13because she married a worthless man.
00:30:15I am a noble lady with the Montag family.
00:30:17You are nothing but insects beneath my feet.
00:30:20Even if I were to kill you here and now,
00:30:22you ought to kneel and sack me for it.
00:30:24Let's see how much longer you can keep up this charade.
00:30:26Guard,
00:30:26seize this filthy beggar,
00:30:28Neville and Sterling.
00:30:29Wait.
00:30:29How dare you humiliate my lady?
00:30:37Seize them!
00:30:38Seize them!
00:30:42How dare you!
00:30:43I'm Lady Joseph of Montag!
00:30:46The husband saved me!
00:30:48You filthy beggar!
00:30:49Guards!
00:30:49Whoever kills him for me,
00:30:50I shall reward him with ten tails of gold.
00:30:53Insolent, wretch!
00:30:57Lord Montague is of royal lineage!
00:30:59If you dare lay a hand on him,
00:31:00you shall make an enemy
00:31:01of the entire Montague family!
00:31:03And what of it?
00:31:04Anyone who dares to harm my lady
00:31:06shall only have one face,
00:31:08death!
00:31:11You filthy beggar!
00:31:13You're taking this act too far!
00:31:14Before I lose my temper,
00:31:16release me at once!
00:31:17I might disappear your life!
00:31:18You've tortured Evelyn
00:31:19to such wretched state!
00:31:21Press their faces!
00:31:23Straight into the burning charcoal!
00:31:27No!
00:31:28Oh!
00:31:29No!
00:31:30No!
00:31:30What are you doing?
00:31:31No!
00:31:32Stop!
00:31:32Once the judicial court arrives,
00:31:34you are doomed!
00:31:37Alright.
00:31:37My brother is an official
00:31:38of the Imperial Court.
00:31:39Do you really think
00:31:40you'll walk away alive?
00:31:42I'd like to see
00:31:42if the judicial court
00:31:44would tolerate this.
00:31:47Carry on!
00:31:49Help!
00:31:49No!
00:31:50Help!
00:31:50No!
00:31:51Excuse me!
00:31:52You wretched fool!
00:31:53If you wish to die,
00:31:54don't drag your Stoney family
00:31:56down with you!
00:31:57No!
00:31:58Stop!
00:31:59Brother!
00:32:00Brother, save me!
00:32:11Who is harming my brother?
00:32:14The Imperial Secret Guards!
00:32:19Why are they here?
00:32:20Yes!
00:32:21I summoned them!
00:32:23That voice!
00:32:25Could it be?
00:32:26Your Majesty!
00:32:29Your Majesty!
00:32:33The Emperor!
00:32:34How could this filthy beggar...
00:32:36Brother!
00:32:37Don't let this filthy beggar fool you!
00:32:39These clothes he's wearing
00:32:40are all stolen
00:32:40from the Imperial Palace!
00:32:41All these people
00:32:42were bribed by him
00:32:42with a huge sum of money!
00:32:44That's right!
00:32:45You're new to this office!
00:32:46It's normal to get
00:32:47the wrong person,
00:32:48but he really is
00:32:48a filthy beggar!
00:32:49He can't possibly
00:32:50be the Emperor!
00:32:51That's true!
00:32:52The Emperor
00:32:52couldn't possibly be here!
00:32:54Wretched girl!
00:32:55Look at the fine husband
00:32:56you've chosen!
00:32:58You've offended
00:32:58Lord Montague!
00:32:59I'll see how you
00:33:00plan to end this!
00:33:02My Lord!
00:33:03You must uphold
00:33:04justice for us!
00:33:05This filthy beggar
00:33:06and Evelyn Sterling!
00:33:07They defied human ethics!
00:33:09Even intended
00:33:09to murder us!
00:33:11Outrageous!
00:33:12At the foot
00:33:13of the Imperial City!
00:33:14How can you act
00:33:14so brazenly?
00:33:15Guards!
00:33:16Take them to the dungeon
00:33:17of the Judicial Court!
00:33:18Interrogate them
00:33:18with torture!
00:33:19Wait!
00:33:21What else
00:33:21do you have to say?
00:33:23Since when
00:33:24was this position
00:33:25of Lord Justice Deputy?
00:33:26Yours to assume!
00:33:27You filthy beggar!
00:33:28How could you possibly
00:33:29know about court appointments?
00:33:31My brother
00:33:31was appointed
00:33:32by the Empress Dowager
00:33:33herself!
00:33:34What now?
00:33:34Regret finally sinking in?
00:33:36Even the Empress Dowager
00:33:37was deceived!

00:55:31it's just that your words can be utterly vicious
00:55:42let's go
00:55:43her majesty
00:55:47i believe
00:55:49that his majesty's insistence on making lady evelyn the empress
00:55:52does not seem like a mere impulse
00:55:54lady evelyn truly possesses remarkable qualities
00:55:58i'll see you to chestnut cake
00:56:01it was her
00:56:02it was her
00:56:12it was you who seduced his majesty
00:56:14it was you who seduced his majesty
00:56:17with a stuck-to-face of yours
00:56:19no wonder you can't stay out of trouble
00:56:20his majesty's finding a bride outside the palace is wondering
00:56:23but when did your lowly servants dare to entertain such wicked thoughts
00:56:28when did evelyn ever seduce his majesty
00:56:30isabella
00:56:31have you forgotten how much we suffered because of her?
00:56:33evelyn never once provoked me intentionally
00:56:35it was you
00:56:36who kept picking fights deliberately
00:56:37isabella
00:56:39do you even know who i am?
00:56:42how dare you act so insolently in my presence
00:56:44Caesar
00:56:47wait
00:56:51the person standing before you is lady caldwell
00:56:53daughter of chancellor caldwell
00:56:55she's the one the empress dodge rager has chosen to be empress
00:56:58what a fool
00:56:59since lady caldwell is the esteemed daughter of the chancellor
00:57:02surely you are a reasonable person
00:57:03we have never even met his majesty
00:57:05so how could there be any talk of seduction
00:57:07i beg you lady caldwell spare me
00:57:09i heard from eleanor
00:57:11that you not only seduced his majesty
00:57:13but also entangled yourself with the guards
00:57:15that face of yours
00:57:16is too dangerous to keep
00:57:18stop
00:57:24stop
00:57:34stop
00:57:42the imperial household bureau is part of the harem
00:57:45since when is it your place to interfere?
00:57:47a mere old servant
00:57:49dares to raise your voice in front of me?
00:57:51you! how dare you!
00:57:53his majesty and i grew up together
00:57:55i am the only candidate for emphasis
00:57:57the harm will be mine sooner or later
00:57:59dealing the lowly maid is nothing to me
00:58:01preposterous
00:58:03preposterous
00:58:04do you even know who stands before you?
00:58:07aren't you just
00:58:08a lowborn servant?
00:58:10if i don't teach you a lesson
00:58:12you'll never learn your place
00:58:14restrain her as well
00:58:16eleanor

00:58:39dare to use the title of the empress dowager
00:58:41it seems you've grown tired of living
00:58:43it seems you still refuse to admit your wrongdoing
00:58:45what wrong have i done?
00:58:47you born into lowly status can only be servants in the palace
00:58:51to defy your superiors
00:58:52is to seek death
00:58:53you!
00:58:54lady catwell
00:58:55the inner court is under the jurisdiction of his majesty and the empress dowager
00:58:58to deal with the palace servants privately is likely against the rules
00:59:01i beg you to show mercy
00:59:02as the head of the imperial household bureau
00:59:04you have allowed your maid to seduce his majesty
00:59:07such behaviors as a dangerous example

00:59:48it was me who offended lady catwell
00:59:49and i would not wish for you
00:59:50who severed punishment on my account
00:59:53and save Evelyn Sterling.
00:59:54What did you say?
00:59:56Evelyn's in danger.
01:00:08What are you doing?
01:00:11It was me who offended Lady Cabell.
01:00:13But I got wish for him
01:00:14to suffer punishment on my account.
01:00:17Since you're so eager to play the hero,
01:00:19I shall grant your wish today.
01:00:21Enough!
01:00:22Anna Caldwell,
01:00:23Her Majesty advises you not to go too far.
01:00:26Otherwise...
01:00:26You called yourself Her Majesty again?
01:00:28You reckless wretch!
01:00:29Today, I shall teach you the rules
01:00:30on behalf of the Empress Dowager!
01:00:32Anna Caldwell!
01:00:35Do you know who you are about to whip?
01:00:38Your Majesty...
01:00:40I greet the Empress Dowager.
01:00:44I greet Her Majesty.
01:00:46The Empress Dowager?
01:00:48How did you possibly be the Empress Dowager?
01:00:50How could she possibly be the Empress Dowager?
01:00:58How is this possible?
01:01:00Her Majesty was merely testing you,
01:01:03but she never expected you to be so insolent.
01:01:05How dare you overstep and offend Her Majesty herself!
01:01:09Your Majesty!
01:01:10This humble subject admits her fault!
01:01:13I failed to recognize that you were the Empress Dowager.
01:01:15I beg your Majesty for forgiveness!
01:01:17I beg the Emperor for mercy!
01:01:19The Emperor...
01:01:21This humble official believes this matters are of great importance.
01:01:27It concerns the dignity of the Empress Dowager.
01:01:29I implore Your Majesty to carefully consider the matter.
01:01:31How could you dare to offend the Empress Dowager?
01:01:42Admit your fault at once!
01:01:43This humble subject admits my fault.
01:01:46Your Majesty!
01:01:47It was this wretched maid!
01:01:48She told me to seduce His Majesty!
01:01:52This is why I lost my composure!
01:01:54Lady Caldwell!
01:01:55It was clearly you!
01:01:56If it weren't for your manipulation,
01:01:57how could I have spoken so recklessly before the Empress Dowager?
01:02:00The palace maid Eleanor Fairfox
01:02:02has spread rumors and caused trouble.
01:02:04Take her away and sell her at once!
01:02:07The palace maid Eleanor Fairfox
01:02:08has spread rumors and caused trouble.
01:02:10Take her away and sell her at once!
01:02:11Your Majesty have mercy!
01:02:13I did not spread rumors!
01:02:14I saw Evelyn flirting with the guards!
01:02:16I truly did not spread rumors!
01:02:18Your Majesty!
01:02:19I beg your Majesty!
01:02:20You are the eldest daughter of the sturdy family!
01:02:22How dare you!
01:02:22Anna Caldwell,
01:02:23I always believed you to be a kind-hearted,
01:02:26yet I never expected you to be ruthless.
01:02:28You've overstepped your place
01:02:29and still dared to dream of becoming Empress.
01:02:31You are sentenced to one year in the Office of Discipline
01:02:33to reflect on your actions.
01:02:34Office of Discipline?
01:02:35No!
01:02:36Your Majesty!
01:02:37This humble subject admits her fault!
01:02:38Your Majesty, please spare me!
01:02:40I do not want to go to the Office of Discipline!
01:02:43I have questions for you.
01:02:50Where is Her Majesty taking them?
01:03:03Evelyn!
01:03:05Lucas!
01:03:06Did the Empress down to punish you?
01:03:08Of course not!
01:03:09Her Majesty wished to discuss the Spring Blossom Banquet with me!
01:03:12That's a relief!
01:03:14Evelyn!
01:03:17Evelyn has passed the test!
01:03:18Wonderful!
01:03:19I will reveal my identity to her
01:03:21and make her my Empress!
01:03:23There is no need to rush the coronation.
01:03:25The Ministry of Rights is preparing
01:03:26for the Spring Blossom Banquet next month.
01:03:29They may not have enough resources to manage both.
01:03:32Moreover,
01:03:33this matter is too sudden.
01:03:35I'm concerned
01:03:35the other Ministers may object.
01:03:38Mother,
01:03:39why not let Evelyn organize the Spring Blossom Banquet?
01:03:41If she can manage this banquet,
01:03:43it will not only prove her capability,
01:03:44but also make her coronation
01:03:45more acceptable to everyone.
01:03:47Her Majesty wants 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 behind the scenes.
01:04:02Get moving, all of you.
01:04:17If anyone there is a slack off,
01:04:18my whip shows no mercy.
01:04:20You useless fool.
01:04:27Do you still think
01:04:28you're a pampered young lady?
01:04:29Huh?
01:04:30Once you're in the office
01:04:31of discipline,
01:04:32no one gets to laze around.
01:04:38Evelyn Sterling,
01:04:39this is all your fault!
01:04:43Get it!
01:04:44Don't touch me!
01:04:45I'm the daughter of Chancellor Caldwell!
01:04:47But I better show some respect!
01:04:54The daughter of Chancellor Caldwell?
01:04:57In my past life,
01:04:57Adrian Montag was promoted
01:04:58by the Empress Elwiger
01:04:59during the Spring Blossom Banquet.
01:05:01If I can escape this wretched place
01:05:04and find a way to bring
01:05:05Adrian to the Spring Blossom Banquet,
01:05:07I can surely turn things around.
01:05:14What a wretched place!
01:05:16They expect me,
01:05:17a lady,
01:05:17to wash my clothes myself?
01:05:21Where did this lowly maid come from?
01:05:23I...
01:05:24Lady,
01:05:27I have an urgent request.
01:05:29When?
01:05:29Why should I help you?
01:05:31I am a noble bird.
01:05:33Were it not for
01:05:33this temporary misfortune,
01:05:36you wouldn't even
01:05:36be worthy to speak to me.
01:05:40My elder sister,
01:05:42Evelyn Sterling,
01:05:42is the reason
01:05:43I was in prison here!
01:05:44If you help escape,
01:05:45I shall be forever
01:05:46indebted to you.
01:05:50Evelyn Sterling?
01:05:56Not bad.
01:05:57The banquet itinerary
01:05:58is clear and 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 organization
01:06:04was indeed a wide choice.
01:06:06Many thanks
01:06:06for Your Majesty's praise.
01:06:08Your Majesty!
01:06:09Terrible news!
01:06:10The Office of Discipline
01:06:11is on fire!
01:06:11What?
01:06:13Sir,
01:06:19what is the situation
01:06:21inside?
01:06:22The 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
01:06:45from 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 well-being
01:06:53to your father.
01:06:54Enough!
01:06:55With your temperament,
01:06:56staying in the Office of 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?
01:07:03I'm married to Lai?
01:07:05What?
01:07:06Are you unwilling?
01:07:07Or would you prefer
01:07:08to continue staying
01:07:09in the Office of Discipline?
01:07:12Oh, no!
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
01:07:21of Lai's 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
01:07:30risking 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.
01:07:38I remember.
01:07:42Josephine is your sister.
01:07:45Tell me,
01:07:47how should I reward her?
01:07:52Empress Dowager,
01:07:53we were never close
01:07:55since 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.
01:08:05Thank you for your grace.
01:08:09Thank you for your grace.
01:08:18Evelyn Sterling,
01:08:19I thought you had
01:08:22sword high 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.
01:08:45Edmund,
01:08:47let me out, please.
01:08:49This is driving me crazy.
01:08:51You 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.
01:09:05It's all Josephine's fault.
01:09:08Husband!
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,
01:09:20you 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,
01:09:27you 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,
01:09:35huh?
01:09:35I saw her once
01:09:38at the Office of Discipline.
01:09:39She was wearing
01:09:40a lonely palace-maid's uniform.
01:09:43I don't think she's royal.
01:09:45A palace-maid?
01:09:47Could it be that
01:09:48His Majesty married her
01:09:50on 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?
01:10:09What are you
01:10:12scheming 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
01:10:21the Empress Dowager's favor,
01:10:22our family will rise again.
01:10:24It's going to be all nobles and high officials.
01:10:36Check everything thoroughly.
01:10:37You cannot afford to any mistakes.
01:10:39Oh, stop worrying.
01:10:56You've confirmed every detail
01:10:57multiple times already.
01:10:59There won't be any problems.
01:11:00Let's hope so.
01:11:01Avalyn.
01:11:13Avalyn.
01:11:14If you like these pastries,
01:11:16I can get you more.
01:11:21Glad this is a remote area
01:11:23with no patrols.
01:11:25Otherwise,
01:11:26I can't meet like this.
01:11:35Avalyn.
01:11:38Once the banquet ends,
01:11:40wait for me here.
01:11:41I got something to tell you.
01:11:42All right.
01:11:44I'll wait for you here.
01:11:53Husband!
01:11:53Look over there!
01:11:59Avalyn!
01:12:00And a palace guard!
01:12:01Oh, right.
01:12:06You're on duty today.
01:12:08Let's hurry back.
01:12:11Remember,
01:12:12wait for me here.
01:12:13Okay.
01:12:14Take these.
01:12:19Hey!
01:12:20You really can't go a moment
01:12:22without a man.
01:12:23Just got tossed aside
01:12:25by His Majesty
01:12:26and now
01:12:26you're ready with the guard.
01:12:31This is the Imperial Palace.
01:12:40Not your place,
01:12:41all right?
01:12:41Everything you do here
01:12:43is washed by His Majesty
01:12:44and the Empress Gouger.
01:12:45You were just released.
01:12:47Have you learned your lesson?
01:12:48My husband and I
01:12:50were 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,
01:12:59you'll get kicked out.
01:13:03You were lucky
01:13:04to have gone away last 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, Empress Dowager.
01:13:18Greetings, Empress Dowager.
01:13:30Evelyn.
01:13:32Preparing the banquet
01:13:33must be exhausting.
01:13:35Once it is over,
01:13:36I 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.
01:13:45I wish to report
01:13:47Evelyn's improper relationship
01:13:49with 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,
01:14:07I did have a contact
01:14:08with a guard.
01:14:09But before entering the palace,
01:14:11we already had developed feelings.
01:14:12In the palace,
01:14:13we only met occasionally.
01:14:15There was nothing improper.
01:14:17If 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 by death.
01:14:25Your Highness,
01:14:26I insist them on seeing him.
01:14:28If this matter deserves punishment,
01:14:31please spare the guard's life.
01:14:34Since neither of you are 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.
01:14:45You 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,
01:15:04put in great effort.
01:15:05She's redeemed herself.
01:15:06I have decided
01:15:07to spare her from punishment.
01:15:09Bye.
01:15:09Evelyn,
01:15:10lead me to the banquet site.
01:15:12Yes.
01:15:13Yes.
01:15:26Farewell, Your Highness.
01:15:28She escaped again.
01:15:30Why is she always so lucky?
01:15:32First the Emperor protected 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...
01:15:43Your Majesty,
01:15:50the banquet is that way.
01:15:51Where are you going?
01:15:52It'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.
01:16:01What?
01:16:01What?
01:16:04Eunuch,
01:16:05Lanely.
01:16:06Come here.
01:16:08Sir,
01:16:08get back.
01:16:15What's going on?
01:16:16You've done a great job this 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.
01:16:23Someone is waiting for you
01:16:26in that courtyard.
01:16:26Go.
01:16:28How is it?
01:16:31Assassins!
01:16:31Protect the Empress dowager!
01:16:36What's going on inside?
01:16:37An assassin disguised as a dancer.
01:16:39Lord Montague took 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?
01:16:48There is an assassin.
01:16:49We are arresting Evelyn
01:16:50to the judicial court.
01:16:51What?
01:16:51Me?
01:16:52My lord,
01:17:00he's the suspect.
01:17:01Maid Evelyn Sterling
01:17:02graced the Prime Minister.
01:17:04So,
01:17:05she's the one
01:17:06who harmed Dana.
01:17:07Chancellor Caldwell,
01:17:09she was in charge
01:17:10of the palace banquet.
01:17:11How dare you?
01:17:13How 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
01:17:27meeting with the guard.
01:17:28You were so affectionate
01:17:29that you just ignore
01:17:30everything around you.
01:17:32What?
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.
01:17:42Why hasn't Evelyn
01:17:46come yet?
01:18:01Lucas.
01:18:02Sir,
01:18:03here's the guard.
01:18:04Are you alright?
01:18:05Lucas?
01:18:05Evelyn Sterling,
01:18:09how do you plead?
01:18:10Please investigate thoroughly.
01:18:12Since there's 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
01:18:21secretly colluded
01:18:22with the assassin,
01:18:23if not from
01:18:23my husband's great reaction.
01:18:25You should have been
01:18:26executed by now.
01:18:28Chancellor Catmull,
01:18:29I really don't know
01:18:30about the assassin.
01:18:31I beg you
01:18:32to grant me some time.
01:18:33I will cover the truth
01:18:34behind this matter.
01:18:35Enough.
01:18:36Made Evelyn Sterling
01:18:38colluded 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.
01:18:53Chancellor,
01:18:54we broke our order.
01:18:55Chancellor,
01:18:55I beg you.
01:18:57Chancellor.
01:18:58Chancellor,
01:18:58don't.
01:18:59Chancellor,
01:19:00please.
01:19:01Chancellor!
01:19:03Focus.
01:19:04I'm sorry.
01:19:05It's not my fault.
01:19:06I'm so sorry.
01:19:25Stop now.
01:19:26Don't you dare touch her.
01:19:30Your Majesty,
01:19:31long live your majesty.
01:19:37Long live your majesty.
01:19:41How dare you
01:19:43condemning the innocent
01:19:44without discerning
01:19:46right from wrong.
01:19:47This is totally
01:19:48outrageous.
01:19:49You keep going against Evelyn
01:19:57every turn today.
01:19:58If I weren't here,
01:20:00you would have gotten
01:20:01your way.
01:20:02Your Majesty,
01:20:03I didn't mean to hurt
01:20:04my sister.
01:20:05Your Majesty,
01:20:06Evelyn was in charge
01:20:07of the banquet,
01:20:07but she allowed
01:20:08assassins in to hurt
01:20:09the Empress Starwager.
01:20:11I beg you.
01:20:11Your Majesty,
01:20:12issue an order at once
01:20:13to imprison her
01:20:14for further interrogation.
01:20:15Chancellor,
01:20:15your girl was right.
01:20:16If it weren't for my
01:20:17husband's presence today,
01:20:18the Empress Starwager
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.
01:20:30If this happens again,
01:20:33who will protect the palace?
01:20:37Police.
01:20:38You must punish Evelyn.
01:20:40Adrian Montague,
01:20:41are you making decisions
01:20:43for me?
01:20:43The Empress Starwager
01:20:44has been traumatized today.
01:20:46If your Majesty
01:20:46doesn't punish Evelyn,
01:20:47what if others follow
01:20:48her example?
01:20:49The consequences
01:20:50will be unimaginable.
01:20:51I request your Majesty
01:20:52to punish Evelyn.
01:20:53I beg your Majesty
01:20:55to punish Evelyn.
01:20:56I beg your Majesty
01:20:57to punish Evelyn.
01:21:00Is that so?
01:21:03If I have evidence
01:21:04that Evelyn's innocent,
01:21:05what should you
01:21:07be punished for?
01:21:13Impossible.
01:21:15Nicholas.
01:21:16I'm asking you!
01:21:19They're fine.
01:21:20What's wrong about her?
01:21:22I'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.
01:21:33Following your orders,
01:21:34I've ready 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 Josephine and
01:21:42Andrew's idea.
01:21:43I was truly forced into it.
01:21:44Your Majesty,
01:21:45spare me.
01:21:45Your Majesty,
01:21:46please spare me.
01:21:46It's over.
01:21:47It's all over.
01:21:49Guards,
01:21:49take Nicholas away.
01:21:51Your Majesty,
01:21:52I've been serving
01:21:54the royals
01:21:54for decades.
01:21:56I'm absolutely loyal.
01:21:58Your Majesty,
01:21:59please don't do this to me.
01:22:01Your Majesty!
01:22:06Her Majesty!
01:22:07It'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.
01:22:14Your life!
01:22:14Your Majesty,
01:22:15I was only jealous of my sister.
01:22:17The assassination
01:22:17was all in Grant's idea.
01:22:18and 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.
01:22:39Your Majesty!
01:22:40Your Majesty!
01:22:41Please give me a chance,
01:22:42Your Majesty!
01:22:43Your Majesty!
01:22:43Your Majesty!
01:22:44I hate you!
01:22:45If not for you,
01:22:47all of this would have been mine!
01:22:48It's all because of yourself,
01:22:51not me!
01:22:54You brought all of this upon yourself.
01:23:04Evelyn.
01:23:07Hi.
01:23:11So, Your Majesty,
01:23:12what is your real name?
01:23:17Lucian Prescott.
01:23:18Lucian Prescott.
01:23:22Now the criminals
01:23:23have been taken away.
01:23:25Your Majesty
01:23:25and Your Highness,
01:23:27you can finally be together.
01:23:31My Highness.
01:23:33From today onward,
01:23:35I
01:23:35will make you Empress.
01:23:37Starting today,
01:23:43the concubines will be dismissed.
01:23:45The harem only has one leader.
01:23:50And that will be my Empress.
01:23:53Greetings!
01:23:55Long live Your Highness!
