[Lost You Forever S2]

[Episode 8]

If it hadn't been for Chi Chen, Auntie wouldn't have...

Xiang Liu is too arrogant.

How dare he approach Xiao Yao?

Cangxuan, rest assured.

Xiao Yao isn't like your aunt.

She has always and will always put you first.

What worries you will not happen.

Brother.

I saw you smiling just now.

Does it mean you're not angry anymore?

Right?

I wasn't angry to begin with.

As for Fenglong...

As for Fenglong, I'll compensate him.

From now on, just think of him as a total stranger.

I've caused you so much trouble,

offending the Chenrong and Chishui Families at the same time.

I thought you would at least teach me a lesson.

Even if I was upset, it would be because you went to Qingqiu without telling me.

Brother, don't be mad at me.

I was so lost at that moment and didn’t know how to reach you.

In all of Qingshui Town, I only know Yu Xin.

So I had him take me to Qingqiu on an impulse.

Is that so?

Of course.

Brother, I caused so much trouble.

Of course, I would think of you first.

Does that feel good?

Enough, stop acting nice.

Sit down and chat with me.

I'll go back to Wushen Mountain and apologize to Royal Father tomorrow.

All right. I will have Xiaoxiao go with you.

What I did was a huge disgrace to Royal Father

and almost ruined his reputation in Dahuang.

I'm sure the ministers of Haoling loathe this unthoughtful princess of theirs.

If you can't stay in Haoling, stay on Xiaoyue Peak forever.

My reputation is tarnished and everyone shuns me.

Thank you for taking me in.

If you never get married and just keep me company forever, that's not bad.

If no one marries me, you'll really have to keep me company.

Of course, I will.

You can practice medicine.

Once I'm done with the court affairs every day,

I'll come here to talk and have meals with you.

Once the court affairs get on the right track, I'll be freer.

I can teach you to brew wine. You can teach me medical skills.

If you find it boring on Chenrong Mountain, we can go back to Xiyan Mountain.

Or we can travel throughout Dahuang.

That sounds quite nice.

Didn't you promise the princess to rest well?

I'll naturally keep my promise to her.

[Accounts of Tushan Family]

I'll entrust these accounts to you.

Yes. Chief.

Chief, it's time to take your medicine.

Why are there two bowls?

Chief asked for it.

It's bait.

Bait?

As you predicted, the Chief is increasing the dosage day by day.

He must be getting worse.

Can you tell how long he can stay alive from the dosage?

I'm afraid not.

Three to five years, ten to twenty years is possible too.

Impossible. I can't wait anymore.

But the eldest master said...

Don't tell him yet.

Once Tushan Jing dies, Hou won't be able to blame me.

- Royal Father.
- Welcome home.

Are you tired?

No.

I've caused so much trouble for you and Haoling.

Why is everyone acting like nothing happened?

Have you forgotten what I told you?

You can act recklessly because your father is a powerful king.

I have the power to let you act recklessly.

Now you know that I'm the more obedient one.

My sister only looks obedient.

She doesn't usually cause trouble, but once does, it's shocking.

Indeed. You must never learn from me, okay?

Eldest Princess. I want to ask about Fengfeng Bei...

I don't have anything to ask about Fangfeng Bei.

I suddenly remembered that I still have work to do.

I'll take my leave.

Go on.

I also need to consult with the Second Princess.

What? I'm not going. Let go of me.

Hurry up.

I heard you went to the Tushan Mansion.

Yes. I went to see Tushan Jing in Qingqiu.

Do you need me to do anything?

I told you I could send troops to wipe out the Fangfeng Family and snatch that Tushan fox for you.

I meant it.

Thank you, Royal Father.

But I want to handle it myself this time.

I want to face it instead of avoiding it.

All right.

But remember, your father is a formidable king.

You can always ask me for anything.

I understand, Royal Father.

Royal Father. I want to use your help on one thing.

May I have the key to your private treasury?

I want to explore your cherished treasures.

Making pills again?

That's right. But it's different this time.

I'm not making poison.

I'm making a remedy.

Done.

I just k*lled a fish demon underwater. This is its fish core.

Brother Hou, could you give it to me?

Sister Xinyue, I need this fish core.

I'll have someone get you another next time.

Among the three women on the boat, only Fangfeng Yiying showed no interest in the red fish core.

Could it be she knew that Tushan Hou would give it to her.

Jing may be very careful, but he can be negligent,

allowing Tushan Hou and Fangfeng Yiying to set him up.

The best solution is to nip the crisis in the bud.

I sense murderous intent in your eyes.

Where does it come from?

I want to k*ll two people.

But death won't solve the problem.

So what's the solution?

The truth.

I want to know the truth.

Since ancient times, it's always been easy to conceal the truth but hard to reveal it.

Especially in courts and major clans,

death can easily silence and wipe out everything.

On the contrary, finding the truth and revealing it to all is difficult.

I know it's hard. But I don't want to be fooled.

I must figure out what happened exactly.

Royal Father, I'm going back to the Central Plains.

All right. Just remember, I'm always here.

Don't put up with anything that upsets you.

Come back to me.

As you expected, this herb is called Zhuhuang.

It can treat heart diseases, but it's poisonous.

One must be very careful with the dosage.

I discovered that someone secretly increased the dosage in your medicine, turning the remedy into poison.

If you take it for a month, you'll die from a severed heart meridian.

Fortunately, you noticed it. Or you'd be in grave danger.

Find anything?

Chief, the poisoner has committed suicide.

But I followed the lead and found the person behind her.

It's Xuanzhou, the Madam's maid.

I knew it.

- Bring them here.
- Yes.

Who gave you the courage to poison Chief Tushan?

Confess now!

Xuanzhou is your maid.

What do you have to say?

I... I...

I poisoned the Chief because of Madam. She's the culprit.

You... Stop talking nonsense!

The Chief has been seriously ill.

The lady has been upset and often takes it out on me.

I was enraged and retaliated against her by tampering with the Chief's medicine.

How dare she?

Unacceptable!

At this point, I have nothing to say.

I'll bear the consequences of my actions. Please don't implicate my family.

Xuanzhou is my maid.

I can't avoid responsibility for her behavior.

Please punish me.

You only care about Brother and not me at all.

She's not concerned about her brother.

I think she's concerned about the owner of the pill.

So, that's it. Sister, tell me. Who is it?

It's getting late. I have to go.

Sister.

You're sensitive to the cold. So come back in winter.

We will stay warm and cozy on Wushen Mountain together.

Okay. I'll teach you to swim when I'm back.

I'll catch crabs in the sea and grill fish for you, all right?

All right. I'll wait for you!

Royal Father. I'm leaving.

Go on.

I thought we could capture Fangfeng Yiying, but she got away again.

What a cunning woman.

Now, Xuanzhou is dead and Fangfeng Yiying got away with it.

It might be hard to catch her in action any time soon.

It's pointless for you to stay in Qingqiu. You might as well set off for Zhiyi.

I can't leave before I solve this issue thoroughly.

Chief, the Princess sent you a letter.

[Jing. I'm going back to Chenrong Mountain. See you in Zhiyi, Xiao Yao.]

Jing Ye. Pack up. We'll head to Zhiyi tomorrow morning.

I'll go pack up now!

What did Princess say? Why did you suddenly change your mind?

Xiao Yao is returning to Chenrong Mountain and asks to meet me in Zhiyi.

Your Majesty. The combat power of the naval forces has been greatly improved.

Here are the result of the drills. Please review it.

Bring it here.

The Princess is back! Your Majesty!

Princess is back! Your Majesty, Princess is back!

Fenglong, stay. The rest of you may leave.

I take my leave.

Fenglong.

Do you still hold a grudge?

To be honest, I may pretend to not care at all,

but whenever someone mentions Xiao...

the Princess.

I feel uncomfortable and even irritated.

What are you doing?

I apologize to you on behalf of Xiao Yao.

Your Majesty, I don't deserve it.

If I think about it, I don't have deep feelings for the Princess.

Her withdrawal damaged more of my self-esteem, rather than my feelings.

What embarrasses me is others' comments and gossip.

Sorry for what you've endured. I swear I'll make it up to you.

That's unnecessary. You've given me so much already.

People feel sorry for me right now.

Saying that the Princess of Haoling changed her mind because I wasn't outstanding enough.

I'm confident.

One day, I'll make people feel sorry for the Princess

for missing such an outstanding man.

Well said.

Brother.

How do you have the patience for this?

This is for Jing.

You two... have made up again?

- No.
- Then what is this?

I'm embroidering this sachet for medicine pills.

The last time I went to Qingqiu, I found him seriously ill.

If not treated in time, he might not make it past the next hundred years.

Right now, I'm only his physician.

Only his physician?

Make one for me too. Make a poinciana flower.

Our favorite flower.

Okay. I'll start once I'm done with this.

Hey.

Start with mine.

Fine.

But I don't have much talent in painting. Draw me some patterns.

I won't.

Did you ask Tushan Jing to draw this pattern for you?

A gift for me must be made from scratch to show sincerity.

You really are picky.

Fine, fine. I'll draw the pattern, okay?

You're so clumsy. Can't you relax a little?

Relax your wrist.

Be gentle.

It's a poinciana flower, not a phoenix tree.

If you're so picky, do it yourself.

Look at you.

You've always been like this. Never able to accept any criticism.

You're the only one with talent!

How come you're mad?

Weren't we having fun?

All right. You can draw on my face too.

I won't resist.

Just don't be mad.

Hurry up, I'm letting you draw.

- Happy now?
- No.

I want more.

- So petty.
- Who are you talking about?

Cangxuan is so petty.

- Who are you talking about? Try again.
- Cangxuan is so petty.

No, no!

Give it to me!

Grand Imperial Sire.

His Majesty is only happy and relaxed when he's with the Princess.

That's true.

No one can have everything they desire.

Chief. Here's the newly brewed green plum wine.

Let me try it.

Not bad. Xiao Yao will like it.

Since knowing she was coming, you've been bustling about the entire morning.

All of these are her favorites.

Is it too dark in here?

Should we move to the porch?

Chief, the Princess is here.

Chief Tushan.

Greetings, Princess.

Princess, have some snacks first. The Chief prepared these for you.

No need. I'm here to treat Chief Tushan.

Let me take your pulse.

But...

You've gotten better.

Stick to the previous prescription.

But halve the dosage.

Okay.

I'm off then.

Okay.

I need a favor from Miss Jingye.

My two maids aren't good at managing accounts. So it's been getting disorganized.

Could you please organize my accounts and also instruct my maids for me?

- What do you say?
- Jingye...

Managing accounts is what our chief does best.

There are no accounts he can't sort out.

Right, Chief?

Just do as the princess says.

Yes, Sir.

Princess.

Shanhu. Where are the accounts?

I have something to ask you.

Answer honestly. Don't hide anything.

Yes.

Has Tushan Hou ever shown affection towards you?

Has he given you gifts?

You suspect that I'm a traitor?

- I'm not.
- Just answer my questions.

Tell me the truth.

Have you ever had feelings for Tushan Hou?

I've always suspected him ever since the Chief went missing.

How could I have feelings for him?

Besides, I... I'm already in love with someone.

I would never like Tushan Hou.

Who are you in love with?

Hu Zhen.

Tushan Hou really is trying to prove himself better than Jing by conquering Jing's women.

I see.

Don't tell Jing about what we talked about today.

If Jing knows that Tushan Hou has been pestering you, he'll get irritated.

His health is barely getting better.

He can't afford any mood swings.

All right. I'll definitely keep it a secret.

Also, bring two items back to Jing for me.

The Princess asked me to bring these to you.

She emphasized that this is a life-saving pill.

You must carry it everywhere and take it in a crisis.

Jing, starting today, I won't see you again.

Rest and recover.

Promise me one thing.

No matter what happens, trust me unconditionally.

No matter what you see or hear,

close your eyes and listen to your heart first.

I promise you.

I've failed to do so once.

But this time, I will keep my promise.

I won't let you down.

I've finished the sachet. See if you like it.

There's a poison-repelling bead I made for you.

Suddenly so attentive.

I bet you need a favor.

Tell me, what do you want?

I want to host a banquet.

Xiaoxiao.

The crabapple blossoms near Dajing Lake are in full bloom.

We can ask Lady Shangyang to hold a banquet to enjoy the flowers.

All right. Let's do it.

Who do you want to invite? Xiaoxiao will work on it.

Jing. Fangfeng Yiying. Tushan Hou. Lirong Chang.

The others don't matter, but these four must be there.

Do as she says.

Yes.

You want to invite Fangfeng Yiying?

What are you up to?

Bad deeds.

One can only do bad deeds in secret.

Others can't know about it.

Hey, it's her. How dare she be here?

Exactly, acting like it didn't happen.

We have many guests today.

You might be disturbed.

I set up another seating in the pavilion ahead.

Apart from the guests Miss Xiaoxiao asked for, I only seated a few close acquaintances there.

This is for the best.

[Consort Shangyang]

Her Highness is truly clever.

Greetings, Your Majesty.

Consort Shangyang is hosting a banquet at Dajing Lake.

I heard Xiao Yao is also there.

Come with me.

Consort Shangyang didn't invite us.

Isn't it improper to go uninvited?

Keep burying your head in the sand then.

I'll go alone.

Wait, Your Majesty. I'll go with you.

His Majesty bestowed me this crabapple blossom tea.

Try it.

Thank you, Your Highness.

His Majesty truly dotes on you.

Let's go.

Come on.

Princess. How about you reconsider my buddy?

Chang.

Look, you abandoned Fenglong and Fengfeng Bei ruined your reputation.

It's hard to find a reliable man now.

My buddy has deep feelings for you.

Just go with him.

Lirong Chang! Don't talk nonsense!

Deep feelings?

How come I haven't notice that?

What else do you want him to do to prove it?

I want begonia blossoms.

That's easy.

But you can't use spirit power or magic.

I want it hand-picked.

I want it right now.

Princess. Jumping in the lake in public is a bit embarrassing.

Dignity matters to men.

He really jumped in to get one!

Who would've thought.

Your flower.

Thank you, Chief Tushan.

Everyone thought the Princess was deeply in love with Fengfeng Bei.

Who would've known that only a few months after he passed away,

she's already feasting and seducing others to fall for her charm?

Brother, you should feel lucky

that heaven blessed the Chishui Family and didn't let you marry such a woman.

Mind your words, Your Majesty.

Chief Tushan, if you really like her, take her home and make her a concubine.

No decent man would want her anyway.

However, watch her closely.

Otherwise, who knows who she'll run off with again?

You...

Madam Tushan, you're so magnanimous.

They're displaying affection in front of you. Yet, you don't say a word.

Do you intend to share a husband with this woman who k*lled your elder brother?

You're a madam. Show some spirit.

Your Majesty.

What is my queen going to show some spirit for?

Greetings, Your Majesty.

Your Majesty.

Did you like begonia blossoms?

Yes. Thank you for arranging this banquet for me.

As long as you like it.

Xiao Yao, come here.

It's pretty.

Thank you, Your Majesty.

Brother, I have a slight headache. I'll take my leave.

It happens that I want to visit Grandfather. I'll go with you.

Okay. Keep enjoying the flowers.

Farewell, Your Majesty.

Chang.

Your Highness, His Majesty truly dotes on you.

He only had eyes for you and no one else.

I told you not to come. You wouldn't listen.

Now that we're here, we can't leave.

If you run off, the others will make fun of you.

If you act as if nothing happened,

others will think that no matter how much His Majesty dotes on another woman,

you're the queen and don't need to vie for favoritism.

His Majesty has work to do. Let's not miss out on the fun.

Linglan. Bring the fine wine that I brought to share.

Yes.

- Thank you, Your Majesty.
- Thank you, Your Majesty.

Don't think that His Majesty treated me that way because of you.

No matter what, it happened because what I did won his heart.

As a consort, I have to share His Majesty's burden.

Displeasing His Majesty for personal gain is what defies the rules.

Brother.

Brother! Wait for me.

When did you become so dumb?

Don't you know how to talk back at Xinyue?

If you want to be nice and sweet, be that way towards me and Grandfather. Will you?

Why aren't you nicer to me?

Whenever I scold you, you talk back at me right away.

But in front of her?! You're so compliant and quiet!

Listen to me!

Next time I see it, I'll deal with you, the disappointing one, first!

Say something! Are you mute?

Didn't you say that I usually have a sharp tongue?

I'm being compliant and listening to you.

If you can talk back at me, can't you talk back at her?

I've wronged Fenglong.

Let Xinyue scold me if she wants, it can make it up to Fenglong.

Your father and I have made amends to him already.

You don't have to worry.

All right.

Just this once.

If Xinyue bothers me again, I'll definitely fight back.

- Jing gave it to me.
- I know.

- Stupid flower.
- My flower!

Begonia blossoms are too tacky for you. Wear this.

That demoness was obviously teasing you.

And you seemed to enjoy it.

You're totally asking for it.

She just said that she liked the flower,

and you swam to get it without any dignity.

Now you're even transplanting it at home.

Stop.

What are you doing? Using your spirit power?

Are you suicidal?

Just a little bit. It's harmless.

Stop.

Move aside.

I've really never seen anyone like you.

You keep risking your life over and over for her.

Why bother keeping the flower?

Do you really expect her to enjoy it with you?

Why are you suddenly interested in these things?

Welcome again.

We have some new jewelry. See if there's anything you like.

They don't dare take out the really good stuff.

Please follow me, Princess.




"Nothing Can Be Compared to You" by Jason Zhang

♫ Looking back on the days of my life ♫

♫ Where I'm calm and composed, free from sorrow and pain ♫

♫ Lost in the wilderness without meeting your gaze ♫

♫ I've got nothing but emptiness left ♫

♫ Enduring my life's hardship ♫

♫ I cherished everything, yet remained indifferent to wealth and fame ♫

♫ Amidst the sunlight, I couldn't feel your radiance light ♫

♫ The air is filled with nothing but heatwaves ♫

♫ All things are dim, only your eyes shine bright ♫

♫ I'll follow my heart and traveling to see the sun from afar ♫

♫ When everything is filled with sorrow, your brows lift in joy ♫

♫ I'll await for you to enjoy this moonlight night ♫

♫ You came with the wind and rain and left with the four seasons ♫

♫ Without you, even the grandest scenery becomes dull ♫

♫ It began with a turbulent storm and leaving nothing but dust behind ♫

♫ Without you, the world's beauty loses its symphony ♫
