Decree for Ling Buyi.

Ling Buyi, the former general,

k*lled numbers of enemies

and won a victory for the nation.

He humbled the enemies

and put an end to the w*r.

The end of the w*r

has brought peace to the world.

His contribution

will be remembered forever.

(Ling Buyi)

Ling Buyi will be bestowed

(Ling Buyi)

with the title of Deputy Superintendent,

and lead the left cavalry

of the Yulin Guards.

He will also lead the Yueqi Guards of

the Five Schools of the Northern Army.

He will earn an extra title

as the Palace Attendant,

and is allowed entry

to the inner palace.

He's allowed to meet His Majesty

with his shoes and his swords.

He's allowed to walk at a normal pace

in the royal court.

He's allowed to omit his name

in the royal court.

I received the decree

with great gratitude.

General Ling, please get up.

Please receive the decree, General.

I was told that His Majesty

couldn't sleep at night,

(Attendant Cao)

anticipating your return.

His Majesty intended

to receive you personally,

but was stopped by Official Zuo,

the Imperial Counsellor.

General Ling.

Hurry up and change into the gown

gifted by His Majesty.

We'll return to the palace first.

His Majesty has ordered a banquet

to celebrate your return.

Please relay my message to His Majesty.

I have received news

about a very important case.

I'll return to the palace

and have a meal with His Majesty

after I resolve the issue.

Then,

I'll also personally ask

for His Majesty's forgiveness.

Let's go.

Sure.

What's the matter?

Why is he in such a hurry?

Will she die in there?

They say a bad person

always lives a long life.

She's only sick

for slightly more than a month.

She wouldn't die so soon.

I told you before.

Fourth Lady fell severely ill

because you abandoned her

and left her in the village.

She hasn't recovered,

so she can't leave yet.

She has to leave regardless.

Master will be back

in two weeks.

She has to come with me

whether she's sick

or dead.

Fourth Lady.

I suppose it's been a while

since you last had warm food, right?

I brought you a lot of food today.

We shall depart

after you fill your stomach.

If you still refuse to open the door,

I'll throw away all the food in the box.

This

How useless.

Be careful.

You've been ill.

Don't stuff yourself with the food.

Don't you know how long

I've been starving?

How can I eat slowly?

You'll hurt your stomach

if you gobble them down.

You need to first stay alive

before you can care about your stomach.

Enough of knocking.

(Cheng Shaoshang)

What's with that hurry?

How dare those shameless guys come here?

Young Lady, you almost lost your life

a month ago in the fire.

They never sent their regards.

And they are now here

only after you've recovered.

(Lianfang)

I'm sure they have an agenda.

Even my parents don't care

about me,

despite the fact

that I'm on my deathbed.

Now, someone is actually

paying me a visit?

It's quite a surprise.

Over the past few years,

First Madam has never stopped

sending letters to you.

It's obvious

that they care for you.

The only thing I received

over those years

are just a few letters.

Is that all their care is worth?

Too bad for them,

I'm too stubborn to die.

Otherwise, they might receive a letter

informing them about my passing.

Are you done yet?

Once you're done with the food,

you have to come with us.

You're not getting the food

from the Cheng Family for free.

Young Master, shall we arrest her?

There's no need to hurry.

After all, Fourth Lady is your master.

(Fu Deng)

After all, Fourth Lady is your master.

You're now

defying your master.

She is just a lady no one cares about.

How dare she call herself our master?

Are you going to open the door or not?

Open it now, or I'll break in.

What are you doing?

Move.

I will definitely

(Head Housemaid Li)

bring you with me today.

bring you with me today.

I

I

Come with me.

Who told you to put the dregs here?

Are you trying to sabotage me?

Housemaid Li.

You must have forgotten about this,

but some time ago,

I sent Lianfang to inform Second Aunt

that there are too many insects here,

and it's uninhabitable.

Second Aunt said,

that I was here to reflect on myself,

not for a vacation.

Then, she told me to prepare

some wood ashes.

I heard Housemaid Li

knocking on the door just now,

and I worried that you'll get choked

by the wood ashes.

That's why I told Lianfang

to bring all of these out right away.

Little did I know you were this rude.

You burst in on me.

You're making things very difficult

for a junior like me.

Leave me alone.

You

Fourth Lady.

Don't try to brush me off with excuses

that no one will believe.

I know you're still holding grudges,

but

you have only yourself to blame.

Old Madam kept you here

so that you could reflect upon yourself.

She wanted to teach you a lesson,

so that you'll be obedient

in the future.

Lest you do something

that will sabotage the Cheng Family.

Old Madam is coming from a good place.

Fourth Lady, you should be grateful

for that.

Of course, I'm grateful.

I need to thank you

for not starving me to death here.

(Old Madam Cheng)

Look.

These golden earrings I just got.

Don't they look way more lavish

than the jade

Old Madam Wan, our neighbor,

was wearing the last time?

My eyelid has been twitching

since this morning.

I'm feeling a little uneasy.

Mother-in-law, do you think something

is going to happen?

Stop bothering me.

Shi has won the w*r

and is on his way home.

There's nothing that he can't overcome.

That's exactly what I'm worried about.

(Madam Ge)

From what I know,

you sent Fourth Lady to the village,

so that you could teach her a lesson.

Those who don't know

might think that we're working together

to bully her.

What if the girl

said something inappropriate

before Cheng Shi?

If Xiao Yuanyi found out about this,

he would think

that you made Fourth Lady stay,

so that you could t*rture her.

For as long as you were there,

Old Madam has never stopped worrying

about Fourth Lady's health condition.

She sent me here today,

so that I can bring you home.

Young Lady has not fully recovered yet.

She can't travel far.

Fourth Lady is not that weak.

She can still travel.

Stay out of my way.

Guys.

Escort Fourth Lady to the carriage.

There's no need for that.

I can walk myself.

The old woman is getting ready

to enter the carriage.

(Liang Qiufei)

It seems Thief Dong is not in the carriage.

You need to improve your eyesight.

Old woman?

(Liang Qiuqi)

She's obviously a young girl.

From which residence

is this Young Lady from?

Why is she dressing so shabbily?

What are you doing?

Get in the carriage now.

You

Hurry up!

Move!

Move out of my way.

Why does the carriage smell like sweat?

It stinks very badly.

Is it from Housemaid Li?

Let's go.

This servant does know

how to enjoy herself.

She has no respect for the Young Lady.

It's not the smell of Housemaid Li.

It smells like a man

who hasn't showered for days.

Man?

Leave now.

Hurry up.

What do men smell like?

They stink.

I hope Master and Madam

will come home soon.

Then, we'll eat everything we want.

My parents' return

won't guarantee us food.

No one knows

how will our future

turn out.

At least, we won't get bullied

like what we went through.

We're rushing home despite the illness.

Why is there such a hurry?

What is this for?

This is exactly what it's for.

I'm sure something happened at home

that's more important

than getting me k*lled.

Fourth Lady

is just like her mom.

Both are annoying.

Xiao Yuanyi is just a divorcee.

What is so good about her?

Why is Shi determined to marry her?

This

Forget it.

Oh, right.

Fourth Lady.

Didn't you send someone

to bring her home this morning?

Yes.

She's suffering? It won't be half as bad

as what I went through.

I raised three kids all by myself.

Your father-in-law passed away too early.

She's back.

Old Madam, she is back.

Fine. She's back,

but there's no need for all the yelling.

I was just feeling all the emotions.

Send her back to her room

and let her get some rest.

I'm not talking about Fourth Lady.

Master is back.

Who?

Shi is back?

My son is back.

That's too early.

Shi is back.

My son is back.

My son is back.

It's been more than 10 years.

(Cheng's Residence)

Thank God.

Thank God. My son is back.

(Cheng's Residence)

(Cheng's Residence)

(Xiao Yuanyi)

Mother-in-law.

You're back.

You're back.

Where is Shi?

Yuanyi.

Yuanyi,

this is your favorite honey pastry.

Son.

Son.

Son.

Son.

Yuanyi.

My son.

It's been more than 10 years,

(Cheng Shi)

and the old woman is still making this.

Try it while it's hot.

Why didn't you come home

right after you were back in town?

You went to the pastry shop

to buy pastry for your wife,

but you didn't even bother

buying anything for your mom.

Son.

Son.

Mother.

Shi.

Shi.

Mother.

Shi.

Mother, did you have onions again today?

You obviously had too much of it.

It's been more than 10 years,

and you still haven't changed the habit

you picked up in the country.

How dare you?

I spent years farming

in the countryside,

so that I could raise the three of you.

Your punch is still as powerful

as before.

Shi.

Old Madam.

General spent years

fighting for the country,

and he has been worried about you.

Now, it seems

you're still as strong as before.

Seeing how healthy you are,

we can now rest assured.

Old Madam.

Has Niaoniao been doing well at home

in the past decades?

Thank you, Old Madam,

for taking care of her.

Where is Niaoniao?

Why isn't Niaoniao here to receive us?

She

is not here.

Stop ahead for inspection.

Pull over.

General, why did you stop us?

We were decreed to capture the suspect.

Search the carriage.

Wait.

The carriage is carrying

the Fourth Lady of Colonel Cheng, Cheng Shi.

There's no one else here.

Generals.

Our Young Lady is still single.

It's not appropriate

for the men to search the carriage.

Shut up, Housemaid Li.

We are the family of the General.

All the more reason

why we should obey the laws.

We shouldn't stand in their way

while the Generals carry out their duty.

Generals.

Look at

how stupid and ugly she is,

please forgive her.

Young Lady, are you really allowing them

to search the carriage?

The royal court is looking

for a suspect.

Of course, I will comply.

I never do anything wrong,

so there's nothing I should worry about.

However, can I say a few words

to General

before you begin the search?

What is it?

General.

It's no fun searching just the carriage.

The haystack right next to my house

is where we hide all the fun stuff.

The weather is really dry.

If the haystack accidentally

catches fire,

we might even be able

to catch a living man.

Things will get

way more interesting then.

General.

Our Young Lady has been having a fever

for almost a month,

and she has been spouting nonsense.

General, please don't take it seriously.

We'll find out

whether I'm saying the truth

after we burn the haystack.

General.

Although we're not

from a wealthy family,

we can still afford to burn a haystack.

You can't burn it.

You can't.

You can't.

You can't.

You can't.

Young Master.

We can't trust her.

Let's escort the Young Lady

out of the carriage,

so that we can run a search in it.

It's on fire.

It's a misunderstanding, General.

Don't arrest me.

It's just a misunderstanding.

Let her go.

This

Housemaid Li.

General told you to go.

Why are you still here?

Fourth Lady, you

Cut the nonsense

if you still wish to stay alive.

Keep it low.

Wait.

Is there a misunderstanding?

Please spare my life.

General, please spare my life.

I'm the uncle

(Head Armorer Dong)

of Colonel Cheng, Cheng Shi.

We are all comrades,

so please have mercy on me.

Is the lady in the carriage

really the Fourth Lady

of the Cheng Family?

Are you really her father's uncle?

It's true.

Please have mercy on me.

Fourth Lady, you had been forgiven

for what you did,

but now

you did this to Old Master Dong.

Even Old Madam can't help you this time.

Compared to what Second Aunt did

and sabotaged the entire Cheng Family,

me betraying Granduncle Dong

is just a trivial matter.

Fourth Lady.

It'll take another half a month

before your parents return.

Now, you only have yourself to rely on.

Master and Madam are coming back.

It's too early to celebrate.

If they really care

for their daughter,

they wouldn't have abandoned you

at birth.

Cheng Shaoshang.

That little brat.

She grew up parentless,

and she ended up being

an uncultured troublemaker.

What does she know about family?

I

General,

can you just do it for Colonel Cheng

and spare me this time?

Cheng Shaoshang.

My son.

I've missed you so much.

Here. Open your mouth.

I can do it myself.

My son.

What Madam Ge said just now

is not completely wrong.

Fourth Lady

is a very stubborn woman.

We sent her to the countryside,

only hoping to teach her a lesson.

Moreover, we

Stop!

Stop!

Hurry up!

Quick!

Old Madam.

Old Madam.

Something happened, Old Madam.

What happened?

Old Madam.

Something major happened, Old Madam.

The uncultured Fourth Lady

tried to hurt Old Master Dong

Shut up!

What are you talking about?

Old Master Dong?

What happened to my brother?

Who did you

just call uncultured?

Cheng

Shaoshang.

Master.

Help, Master.

Young Lady's fever is not subsiding.

They left her in the village to die.

She almost lost her life.

Today, Housemaid Li

dropped by unannounced.

She said

that she would bring Young Lady home

even if she was dying.

Where is Niaoniao?

Father.

Mother.

You're finally back.

Niaoniao.

Niaoniao.

Niaoniao.

Why does my beloved Niaoniao

look so tired?

Father.

Mother.

I

I've finally lived long enough

to see your return.

For the past 15 years,

I had been fighting for the country

out there.

I thought that someone back home

would take care of Niaoniao

and made sure

she was well-looked-after.

Little did I know

she would end up like this.

Shi.

Are you

blaming me?

Indeed.

I'll get despised

once my age catches up with me.

My son.

You were away for so many years.

The moment you came home,

you bought pastry for your wife,

and tried to seek justice

on behalf of your daughter.

But what about your mother?

I've been working very hard for years,

and I've fallen ill because of that.

Mother.

Young Lady.

Niaoniao.

Niaoniao.

What did you and your brothers say

when your father passed away?

You said that when you grew up

and managed to achieve something,

you would take good care of me.

But look at what you're doing now.

You obviously want your mother dead.

Brother-in-law.

I should be blamed

for this matter.

I always listen to Shaoshang,

and because of that,

Fourth Lady has turned unruly.

She almost got my youngest nephew

k*lled the last time.

That's right.

We sent her to the village,

hoping

to tame her temperament.

We didn't expect Fourth Lady

to be this weak.

She couldn't stand the stay

in the village.

Over the past decades,

I put in a lot of effort

to take care

of Fourth Lady.

A lot of effort?

And why didn't the Young Lady

own even a proper gown?

Even the stupid and lowly woman

(Qingcong)

can humiliate our Young Lady like that.

Who are you?

This is about the Cheng Family.

You're in no place to interfere.

Old Madam.

Qingcong is not just anyone else.

She is my sworn sister.

She has been following me

for the past few years

when I served the army.

Even the outsider cares more for her

than her own family does.

Someone

send the old woman to the woodshed.

- Shi.

- Yes.

Teach her a lesson.

I'm wronged.

My son.

You were away for the past 15 years.

Old Madam.

You

Who instigated you?

You have been acting all arrogant

since the moment you got home.

Do you still consider me your mother?

Old Madam is getting a heart attack.

Help!

Mother.

Such a good actress.

Someone, please help.

I kept old ginseng in the house.

Young Lady.

What's the matter, Young Lady?

Niaoniao.

Niaoniao.

Niaoniao.

Where is Niaoniao's room?

On the second floor.

I

Old Madam.

Drink the ginseng soup,

and it'll keep you warm.

However much you care

for your granddaughter,

you should never neglect

your own health.

Her parents don't think

that I care a lot for her.

They think you and I

have been abusing her

over the past years.

But it hasn't crossed their mind

that during their years

of absence,

we were the ones

raising the baby up.

They don't give us any credit for that.

All kids get sick.

It's just a few days of fever,

but they're making a huge fuss

out of it.

If you're really worried about your kid,

you can take care of her yourself.

Old Madam, that's really funny.

You're saying as if

Fourth Lady stayed here

because Madam Xiao refused

to take care of her.

No mother

in this world

would want to abandon their newborns.

She only did that

because she was forced.

Qingcong.

You lowly maidservant.

How dare you talk back?

Someone

get me a stick.

Talk back?

Did Qingcong say anything wrong?

We left Niaoniao behind because

we didn't want to disobey the elders.

Now, you made it sound

as if we refused to raise her.

You made us the terrible children

who brought trouble to our mother.

Brother-in-law.

You're hurting Old Madam.

You're only feeling sorry

for Fourth Lady

because she's now sick.

What you don't know

is how Fourth Lady usually misbehaves.

Old Madam was overworked

because of her.

Everyone in this world

loves their children

more than their parents.

Then, I have a question for you.

Brother-in-law.

You are the eldest son.

You must take care of Old Madam, right?

Niaoniao.

You're awake.

Can you please help me up?

I want to greet my parents.

You're still ill.

You can skip the manner.

I'm so sorry

to have worried Father and Mother.

Ever since Niaoniao can remember,

this is my first meeting

with Father and Mother.

I had never greeted you properly

before this.

That's why

I must send my greetings

and express my gratitude to you today.

Niaoniao.

Get up.

Get up. Quick.

I was too immature.

I deserved to be punished

by Second Aunt.

Good girl. Go take a rest.

Niaoniao is so sick,

yet she is still so polite.

However, you wronged her

and called her a stubborn kid.

I'm her father.

Don't I have the right

to know what happened?

Do you want me

to pay with my life?

Old Madam.

You got yourself a new wife

and forgot about your own mother.

What does this have anything to do

with Yuanyi?

Mother, there's no need

to involve her in this.

Ever since you married

into the Cheng Family,

no matter

what happens,

Shi always agrees

with everything

you say.

Does he still care about his Mother?

Let's not talk about anything else.

In the past years,

you've received so many rewards

and titles out there.

Yet, you told me none of them.

And no one else wanted

to tell me anything.

I'm a foolish old woman,

only because you never told me anything.

Mother.

It's getting late.

Thank you, Old Madam,

for paying Niaoniao a visit.

It's time Old Madam

go home and take a rest.

Take a rest?

You'll be pleased

when I'm resting in my grave, right?

You're making me out of breath.

I need to take a breather.

Niaoniao.

You should take a good rest too.

I'll tell the chef

to cook you some food you like.

Mother, do you know what food I like?

Master.

It's bad.

Our yard is surrounded

by a huge number

of black armored guards.

Is General Ling paying us

a visit personally?

You're right.

Colonel Cheng,

how do you know who I am?

General Ling, are you kidding me?

All the generals

have heard of your name before.

Ling Buyi.

We all know how General Ling

is undefeatable.

I was decreed

to catch a thief

who was suspected of embezzlement

and theft of firearms.

I accidentally scared your daughter,

so I hope Colonel Cheng

will forgive me for that.

Embezzlement?

You should never let him go.

Good job, General Ling.

Like father, like daughter.

I admire how understanding

Colonel Cheng is.

Why would General Ling say that?

Does General Ling know our Niaoniao?

We're not friends,

but

we have met each other before.

Come and take a look.

These are the guys

who were

on Granduncle Dong's tail today.

It sounds like it.

Is Old Master Dong going

to drag the Cheng Family into this?

I'm more worried

about myself getting involved in this.

General Ling.

This way, please.

General Ling, please have a seat.

Bring that rat here

and show him to Colonel Cheng.

He is the person

who committed the theft of firearms?

He should be punished.

We're soldiers who fight

for our country.

What we hate the most are the rats.

They caused the death

of many soldiers on the front line.

General Ling,

if you ever need my help,

I'll go all out.

Can't Colonel Cheng tell who he is?

Help!

Shi.

It's me.

Uncle.

What What's going on?

This

You have to thank your daughter for this.

General, are you thirsty?

I cooked some warm soup for you.

Do you think I'm not pathetic enough?

General Ling,

this

Is there any misunderstanding?

I'm sure Colonel Cheng

knows Head Armorer Dong better than I do.

We have evidence to prove

his embezzlement.

I'm here today

to send Colonel Cheng a message.

No matter how high one's rank is,

I'll not let him go

if he ever betrays the country.

There's one more thing.

I would like to send my gratitude.

Gratitude?

That's right.

Young Lady, they never spoke ill of you.

Instead, they are here

to send their gratitude.

Loyalty to the country

comes ahead of family.

She stood up for justice

and was not afraid

of turning her family in.

A heart like Fourth Lady Cheng

is something I've only seen

on my colleagues

of the Ministry of Justice

who carries out the punishments.

I am sure Fourth Lady Cheng

will have a very bright future.

No one shall underestimate

her capability.

I'm too flattered.

I'll see you around.

Is he talking about me?

Loyalty to the country comes first?

Is he saying that

I've failed my family?

Not afraid of turning my family in.

He's saying that I have no respect

for the elders.

What else?

He said that I was just like the lords

in the Ministry of Justice.

He's saying

that I'm hot-tempered

and don't act like a lady.

Does he really think

I don't know what he's saying?

Ling Buyi.

How dare you, Ling Buyi?

How can you repay good with evil?

How immoral.
