[Episode 19]

It's such a brilliant idea.

I can't give it up just like that.

Elders' Court.

Greetings, Your...

I'm a sinful woman.

I deserve some punishment.

- Um...
- Well...

Elders.

I failed to keep the heir of His Majesty.

I'm guilty.

Your Highness.

Why are you

bringing that up again?

Besides, you and His Majesty are still young.

Boost your constitution

and you'll be pregnant again.

I don't want to lie to you, Elders.

I'm actually in poor health.

I don't think that can be improved

in a short period of time.

As the queen,

I'm responsible for the heir of His Majesty.

As King of Beast,

his harem is empty.

I can't let that happen.

What do you mean, Your Highness?

Elders.

I have a plan.

I'd like to set up performance class.

Performance class?

And we pick the best girls in it

and make them his concubines.

But His Majesty is absorbed in state affairs.

He rejected it.

That's why I came here

to discuss this matter with you.

- Well...
- We...

Your Highness.

We can't help you with this.

His Majesty can only have one woman
in his life

since he's a member of the wolf clan.

He doesn't need other women in his harem.

What?

King of Beast

is monogamous.

Yeah, he is.

That's right.

Then we should treat our marriage with
discretion.

He should meet enough girls

before he finds his true love.

Though we're already married,

as time goes by,

His Majesty may not see me as a good spouse

and want a divorce.

About that...

If that happens, the two of us

will live in misery for the rest of our life.

As the saying goes,

you can only rule a country well
when you have a harmonious family.

In that case, will Kui Mulang

still be able to handle the state affairs

and be a good king?

Besides, it's easy to get married
but hard to get along.

The performance class is not just for fun.

It's a touchstone

of our marriage.

Your Highness.

That makes sense.

We're with you on this.

Good.

[We agree on starting a performance class]

How dare she use the Elders
to put pressure on me?

I know how to stop Her Highness

from that.

Try me.

She does have support from the Elders.

But such a large-scale event

will need a big sum of money,

which the Elders will not give her.

So you mean

as long as I cut her off,

this performance class thing
is not gonna happen?

Your Highness.

What?

I can't believe Kui Mulang is so stingy.

Your Highness.

I know what you want.

But how about giving it up?

You can't do it without money.

Let's find out.

It's okay.

I'll figure out a way.

Your Majesty.

We've checked the information

of all the people in the palace.

Until today, we have not found

any females of the chameleon bloodline.

Also, there's no clue to the assassin

who tried to k*ll you outside the palace.

Then keep looking

and stay alert.

Screen everyone in and out of the palace.

- Yes, Your Majesty.
- Yes, Your Majesty.

Bai Ke.

Why are you wearing a mask?

I...

Your Majesty.

Please excuse my leaving.

Hu Die. I...

You can take a leave.

Thank you, Your Majesty.

What is Bai Ke suggesting?

It's a bold move to imitate me.

He didn't mean that.

Here's the thing, Your Majesty.

Bai Ke and Hu Die are on the outs.

Hu Die said she never wanted to see him again.

That's why he's wearing a mask

so that Hu Die can't see his face.

Hu Die.

Hu Die.

Why are you upset again?

Stop following me.

Didn't you hear what I just said?

Can you lose that stupid mask?

You don't want to see my face

or my mask?

Neither.

That's not okay.

We still need to patrol together

and carry out drills together.

And I have to keep you company.

Hu Die.

Chun'er.

What's new

about everyone in the palace?

Your Highness.

Why do you ask?

I have a plan.

Just tell me about it, Chun'er.

Then you have the right girl.

Good.

[Juiciest Gossip in Beast Royal Palace]
Now I'm gonna walk you through

Now I'm gonna walk you through

the gossip of the month in the palace.

The most talked-about one

[Commander of Imperial Guards Wears Mask for Love]
is the mask event concerning Commander Bai.

Commander Bai put on a mask

because of something Hu Die said.

His considerate behavior

has made him popular among women.

He's a hit now.

One thousand girls have talked about him

for over two thousand times.

It is said that many girls

want to buy the same mask

for their beloved.

Go on.

The second one is about Liu Jun the Viper

[Liu Jun the Viper and Hongxiu the Sweet Cat]
The second one is about Liu Jun the Viper

[I love you but I just can't]
and Hongxiu the Sweet Cat.

They love each other but can't be together.

Liu Jun loves Hongxiu but he can't touch her

because of his poisonous hands.

Their sad story

makes the young girls shed tears.

Over 700 people are involved
in the discussions.

And it's gossiped about for some 1500 times.

Chun'er.

Hongxiu.

You touched a raw nerve.

Next one.

Yes.

[His Majesty Celebrated Her Highness's Birthday]
His Majesty celebrated your birthday

in a brand new way

to the Beast Clan.

It has become a beautiful story
out of the palace.

People are all following suit.

It's a trend now.

His Majesty's love for you

has also...

Stop. That's it.

Not important.

I've got it.

Your Highness.

Aren't we trying to get money
for the performance class?

How will the gossip help?

Just follow my lead

and be a good assistant.

Mr. Liu Jun.

Mr. Liu Jun, I was looking for you.

Miss Hongxiu.

Why are you looking for me?

Mr. Liu Jun.

The gloves aren't poisonous, are they?

They're not.

I wear them to insulate toxins.

So...

Her Highness said that would do.

Could I borrow your gloves?

No problem.

But what do you need them for?

Not for me, for Her Highness.

Why does Her Highness want them?

I don't get it.

Neither do I.

But I trust Her Highness.

Please give your gloves only to me.

Is that okay?

Here.

Thank you, Mr. Liu Jun.

I'll be off then.

Commander Bai.

Think about it.

Even Mr. Liu Jun

gave his gloves to Hongxiu?

What's there to worry about?

Please, just give me your mask.

It's an order from Her Highness.

Her Highness?

But Hu Die said she didn't want to see me.

I can't take off this mask.

Deputy Commander Hu Die only said that

because she got angry.

Then you showed up with a mask on.

It's like you did it on purpose to retaliate.

So she got even more upset.

Is that true?

Why didn't she tell me about it?

Her Highness said

Deputy Commander Hu Die says one thing
and means another.

She just enjoys messing with you.

Don't say that.

Hu Die is nice to me.

All right.

I won't speak ill of her.

Anyway, Her Highness has a piece of
advice for you.

If you keep wearing this mask,

you are only pushing her away.

Take off the mask

and she may find you attractive.

Is that true?

Of course it's true.

Her Highness is never wrong.

Okay.

Take it.

What happened to your face?

Well, I...

Don't be afraid, Miss Chun'er.

The mask did it.

I'll just go apply some ointment.

You got your face ruined for love.

I'll write this down.

I'm sorry.

Love makes people stupid.

I also become stupid

for Yingxiong.

Your Highness.

We got everything

you asked us for.

What's next?

Now

you have 30 minutes to do one thing.

[Script]

I want you

to learn these lines on it by heart.

I'll check later.

Word by word.

Make sure you memorize them.

Yes.

Come on, you can do it.

I'll check later.

Let's memorize together

and recite to each other.

I'm kind of busy today.

But when I'm done with this project,

we can be officially together.

I'll tell you about it some other time.

Your Majesty.

Say it.

Your Majesty.

Is there something on your mind?

Do you know that

Qi Pa is doing something

with Hongxiu and Chun'er?

Recently Chun'er

seldom goes to the Imperial Kitchen.

She goes to Qipa's palace every day

and read poems there.

I also find that weird.

Today Hongxiu asked me for my gloves.

Bai Ke told me

that Chun'er asked him for his mask.

Mask and gloves.

So it looks like

Qi Pa has given up filling my harem.

She has a new hobby.

That's great.

I'm glad she's not on the concubine thing.

Your Majesty, you're wise.

I guess the "no money" trick

totally worked.

Dear friends,

are you looking for an amulet of love?

Have you ever racked your brain
to get your lover a special present?

Yes! Great.

Your Highness.

Keep the momentum tomorrow.

We'll count on you

to raise funds.

I won't let you down, Your Highness.

They are here.

Now it starts.

Here we go.

[Mr. Liu Jun, you're my dream lover!]

[Bai Ke, I love you]

Dear friends,

are you looking for an amulet of love?

- Yes, we do.
- Yes, we do.

Have you ever racked your brain
to get your lover a special present?

- Yes, we do.
- Yes, we do.

Now I declare that

the auction of Beast Royal Palace starts.

- Yeah!
- Great!

If there's anything to your taste,

please don't hesitate

to raise your hand

and buy it.

Yes!

Now we're presenting you lot 01.

Please allow me to introduce it.

What is it?

It's made of quality silk that's rarely seen.

Several crafts masters worked day and night

to make this piece of item.

But the story about it

is far more fascinating than its rarity.

Because it witnessed the love
that can not be blocked

by high mountains or deep water.

It may insulate poison,

but not love.

It's the pair of gloves

we took off from Mr. Liu Jun.

It still carries the blessing of love.

The next minute

it will go to a lucky buyer down there.

The opening bid is one tael of silver.

[Opening bid: one tael of silvers]
The opening bid is one tael of silver.

Please make your bids now.

Five taels.

30.

50.

I bid 50 taels.

60.

Now I know what Her Highness

wanted my gloves for.

Who would know that she planned an auction?

Well,

she does have some wild ideas.

Your Majesty,
you should do something about this.

Perhaps one day

Her Highness may sell me out as well.

Oh, right.

It's just a pair of old gloves.

But so many people want it.

You are way more popular

than me in the palace.

That's not true, Your Majesty.

They're crazy about the gloves

because of the trick Her Highness is playing.

Of course it is.

94.

Any more bids?

It's mine!

Um...

95.

100.

Oh, I...

One hundred taels once.

One hundred taels twice.

300.

That's a lot of money.

A big sum.

Do you have the money?

Are you that rich?

Just a friendly reminder.

Please be rational when you make a bid.

If you can't make the payment,

you must bear the consequence of
breach of contract.

[Note worth three hundred taels of silver]

She's loaded.

I'll gonna take the gloves.

Okay.

Three hundred taels once.

Three hundred taels twice.

Three hundred taels three times.

Sold!

Congratulate Hongxiu

on being the new owner of the gloves!

Come on, I want them.

I have to say

that Hongxiu is really into you.

I'm not good enough for her.

Your Majesty, I'd like to be alone.

Please excuse me.

Now let's move to lot 02.

The mask of Commander Bai Ke.

Mr. Bai, you're the bravest man.

Ke, we're with you!

Ke, we're with you!

All right.

The opening bid for the mask

is three taels of silver.

10.

10.

15.

18.

I bid 20.

20?

40.

40?

48.

Any more bids?

48.

Me! I bid 50.

50.

50?

I bid 60.

60?

62.

Sixty-two taels of silver once.

Any more bids?

[Note worth three hundred taels of silver]

Your Highness.

You've counted them over and over again.

Aren't you tired of it?

You and Chun'er have worked hard lately.

Chun'er is really capable.

She can achieve something one day.

Chun'er said she found a new purpose in life.

She hopes that

you could come up with ideas like this.

Then she'll have more chances

to host large-scale activities.

Will do. Will do.

But you surprised me, Hongxiu.

I didn't know that you are such a rich lady.

Tell me the truth.

A palace maid gets a meager monthly salary.

Where did you get so much money?

My pocket money from home.

Pocket... pocket money?

What. Does your family have a mine?

Your Highness, you're quick-witted.

How did you know about the gold mine?

A gold mine?

The only gold mine in Beast City.

Half of it belongs to my family.

The other half to His Majesty.

Then why did you come here to
be a palace maid?

Don't tell me you did it to experience life.

I did it to be closer to Mr. Liu Jun.

What you guys have is true love.

It's great.

All right.

I have a gift for you.

In honor of your love,

I'll name the class

"Black Gloves".

All right.

Now it's time for advertisement.

[Join the Black Gloves]

Hongxiu.

Go hand out these leaflets.

I want them all distributed tonight.

Yes.

Commander Bai.

Are you on patrol?

Yes, Miss Hongxiu.

These are the leaflets Her Highness just made.

Could you have your soldiers

post them up in town?

Sure, no problem.

I'll get a few good runners

to distribute them.

Thank you, Commander Bai.

See you.

Attention, folks.

You can't miss this great news.

Her Highness is setting up a class.

[Join the Black Gloves Performance Class]
Come and take a look!

Join the Black Gloves

Performance?

Let's go try it.

- Give it a shot.
- Come on.

We can go together.

It's a good chance.

Come on, let's go.

Your Royal Highness.

What's the matter?

I was out to deliver some medicine

to Miss Haitang as you ordered.

Guess what I found

on my way back.

Just say it.

I saw this notice at the city gate

[Join the Black Gloves Performance Class]
and stole it before anyone found me.

[Join the Black Gloves Performance Class]
It may be useful to you.

It's just a piece of junk.

Why are you so scared?

I just risked my life to steal it.

It made me nervous.

I get it.

Elder Lu told me that

Qi Pa is finding concubines for Kui Mulang.

Maybe it has something to do with that.

Concubines for His Majesty?

Her Highness really loves His Majesty.

Shut up.

It's not as simple as it looks,

Go inquire about it.

Yes, Your Royal Highness.

There's one more thing.

Miss Haitang wants to see you.

Haitang?

[Join the Black Gloves Performance Class]

What's this nonsense?

What is Qipa up to?

I guess she and Kui Mulang are not

as affectionate as people think they are.

Otherwise, she wouldn't be looking
for beauties for Kui Mulang

in the name of setting up a class.

Xiniang.

Has anything occurred to you?

I'm just dumb.

Please enlighten me, Master.

Since notices have been posted
all over the city,

Qi Pa must have tried it

in the palace.

But we had no inkling

of what was going on until now.

Master, are you saying

that Jing Muhan is disloyal to us?

We'll see.

Even if he is up to something,

he won't succeed.

After such a long refining process,

the Soul-driving Pill will finally be done

in a month.

Compared to the pill from five years ago,

this one is far more potent.

Xiniang.

After I take it.

I will be able to beat the crap out of
Kui Mulang

without any help.

It's okay that Jing Muhan is disloyal.

I just need him to keep an eye

on Kui Mulang for one month

to stop Kui from getting Holy Pearl.

Xiniang.

One mission for you.

I still need an ingredient.

This is what it looks like.

The herb grows at the bottom
of a cliff in the deep forest.

It emits scent at night only.

Not very hard to find.

Go and come back soon.

Yes, Master.

Your Majesty.

I wasn't part of this.

Then who do Black Gloves refer to?

Relax.

I've had guys look into it.

They said Qi Pa and Hongxiu did it.

They did it to utilize your fame.

Oh, Hongxiu.

Qi Pa did all these things

to put women in my harem.

Her Highness is pretty flexible.

How did she come up
with the auction for fund-raising?

Brilliant.

But Her Highness has gone too far.

Come on.

We haven't found the assassin yet.

And Qi Pa is determined to set up the class.

I'm afraid the assassin
will take advantage of the situation.

I must keep an eye on her in person.

Well, about the class...

It is not gonna happen.

I will marry no one except for Qi Pa.

What are we going to do?

Do we have any choice?

Let her be.

Then we'll see what we can do.

Yes.

[Join the Black Gloves Performance Class]

I saw this by the street today.

I think it's a good chance for us.

No.

Screw the performance class.

Looks like Liu Jun and Qi Pa are in charge.

It's just a trick

to select concubines for Kui Mulang.

What bothers us now

is that we can't get close to Kui Mulang.

In that case,

how are we gonna assassinate him?

But if I make it into the class,

I will be able to approach him,

seduce him,

and sleep next to him.

Then I'll find a chance to k*ll him.

No.

No again?

Do you want to overthrow Kui Mulang or not?

They only know that I can disguise myself.

But they don't know about my art of seduction.

If I manage to enter the class

with my real appearance,

it will be a perfect opportunity.

What perfect opportunity?

As I see it,

the timing is not right yet.

You...

Why don't you get it, Miss Haitang?

His Royal Highness

doesn't want you to seduce His Majesty.

Zip your mouth.

I'm sorry.

Anyway, I've already signed up.

I'm gorgeous enough

to stand out among those women.

I'm made up my mind.

It's non-negotiable.

Good then.

You'd better succeed this time.

This time

I won't fail again.

Here come the officers.

I'd like to introduce them.

Commander Bai Ke of the Beast Clan.

Deputy Commander Hu Die.

Mr. Ning and Ms. Nan.

Many of you are from outside the palace.

We've been checking on strangers recently.

Please cooperate with our investigation.

We don't want Her Highness
to be assassinated again.

Then we'll be in trouble.

Hu Die.

Hu Die.

Her Highness

is doing this for His Majesty.

Yeah.

Miss Hongxiu is right.

Commander Bai.

Where is your mask? Why aren't you wearing it?

Mask?

You auctioned it off. Don't you remember?

Without further ado.

Haonan.

Take your squad to check that line.

Dayu, you check that line.

Yes.

What's your bloodline?

I'm of the rabbit bloodline.

And you?

I'm of the fox bloodline.

What's your name and bloodline?

My name is Haitang. I'm a leopard.

Leopard?

Are you the daughter of Bao Laosan in town?

I don't know that person.

Bao Daxing in the suburb
is my distant relative.

He's the brother of my aunt's

second uncle's cousin.

There is no Bao Laosan

in the Leopard family.

Commander Bai.

It's my first time in the palace.

I'm not familiar with the rules here.

Please forgive my behavior if improper.

It's all right.

Why are you staring at her?

I... I... I...

- I'm just...
- And you.

Why did you make eyes at him?

I didn't.

Hu Die.

She's just an ordinary woman.

Why are you mad at her?

Ordinary woman?

She looks like a man-eater.

The queen

has always acted weird.

And now she brought weirdos to the palace.

Lords.

Have you done with your checking?

Commander Bai, nothing strange.

Our line is also fine.

Miss Hongxiu.

We've finished it.

Come on.

Why is she angry again?

This is the information
I asked Eunuch Ruo to collect.

About people with leopard bloodline
in Beast City.

Bear them in mind.

Don't let things go wrong.

I understand.

One more thing.

I learned a secret about Kui Mulang.

His face looks different from ordinary people.

But don't worry.

I've pictured his appearance.

Take a look.

Okay.

Is this Kui Mulang?

Right.

But remember,

don't mention this to anyone.

Don't worry.

Su Daqiang is no longer my master.

Apart from you,

I have no one to talk to.

Good.

The performance class is set up

to select concubines for Kui Mulang.

Now that you know

his real look,

It might be helpful.

We did the inquiry to guarantee
the security here.

Please understand.

Since there's nothing wrong,

you've all passed our first test

and will enter the second round of
the examination section.

[Step 1: Get voting right]

Thank you.

Yours.

Thank you.

The examination section

is about your aesthetic ability, or taste.

What is beauty?

The standards vary from person to person.

Please follow your heart

and put the flower in the vase

for the portrait

you like the most.

So many cute boys.

I want them all.

Did I do something that offended Qi Pa?

She's using the class thing

to retaliate against me.

Well, you did offend her.

For starters, you won't let her go.

Second, she loves Mr. Li in the daytime

while she has no interest in the king
at night.

But I'm sure

Her Highness is doing all this for your good.

Besides,

I heard that numerous people signed up.

This is the second round of selection.

The girls made it here

must be beautiful and special.

Why does that person have his face covered?

He must be ugly.

Yeah, special.

You're out.

Why? I haven't even started picking.

Her Highness

is looking for girls of good character.

If you don't like him, that's fine.

But you can't say such hurtful things.

Take her away.

Yes.

Go.

No, I'm not leaving.

Your Majesty, Her Highness cares about you.

So what?

Anyway, she's doing this thing

because she doesn't like me

and tries to get me some other women.

Don't overthink it, Your Majesty.

Her Highness has good intentions.

All right.

You can start voting now.

[Step 2: Voting Test of aesthetic taste]

Who is that woman?

I'll go investigate her identity.

Never mind.

They can vote as they like.

It's none of my business.

Just let her be.

I declare

the examination section is over.

Except for this girl, the other four
of the first row can stay.

Are we really going

to put them into the performance class?

Her Highness has made it clear that

those who pick His Majesty

could stay,

no matter what they look like.

What about us?

- Come on.
- This is ridiculous.

But they don't look very...

It doesn't matter.

Her Highness will teach them things.

Then they will look better.

You have a point.

The selection is over.

You may leave now.

I'm not leaving.

That's unfair.

Take them away.

What are you doing?

I'm not leaving.

Ladies.

Please introduce yourself

and tell us

why you put the flower

under the fourth portrait.

I'll start.

[No. 1: Rourou]
My name is Rouzou.

I have a mantis bloodline.

I've practiced martial arts since a child.

I enjoy challenging masters.

I can tell

that this man is a top martial artist.

Next.

My name is Ximen.

I'm of donkey bloodline.

Everyone calls me Ximen the Sweet.

I adore brawny men.

Just a simple glance

and I know that he's the strongest.

Let me tell you something.

Only a strong man can make me

- happy.
- That's it.

Next, next.

My name is Haitang.

[No. 4: Haitang]

I'm of the leopard bloodline.

Qi Pa.

Li Xiong.

Li Xiong.

Hongxiu is out.

No one is gonna disturb us.

I thought you went to the selection.

I went there but didn't see you,
so I came here.

Don't worry.

As long as I find a suitable queen

for Kui Mulang,

I'm sure he'll forgive us.

Then I'll divorce him

and beg him to let us go.

That way, we can be together forever

in a legitimate way.

I also want to be with you

forever and openly.

Soon.
