Episode 48

The way you look right now,

I think is good.

Feng ge, to stay by my side for a few more years,

can you endure it for me?

Sir Lin, since Brother Nie has decided,

can we start the treatment tomorrow?

Young Marshal told us that Fei Liu can also be of help to you.

I know how treat the poison, I don't need others to supervise me.

Sir Lin, I really wish you would not always argue with our young Marshal.

Young Marshal has his reasons.

Mei Changsu is your young Marshal, not mine.

Why should I listen like you guys?

I am helping him as a friend to achieve his wish.

And not to lead him to his death.

He said Mei Changsu is your young Marshal.

What does he mean by that?

He's Xiao Shu?

How can this be?

He was in the Capital for two years

I didn't even recognize him.

Then that means at Meiling, he was also-

What choice did I have?

This was my only option.

I had many things I needed to do.

I needed a normal appearance and voice.

Unless you would have had me hide out somewhere

and live out my life?

You should have told me.

If I told you

there would be many orders you would not have followed.

Your sentiments towards me, sometimes becomes my burden.

so I had to do this.

I had thought

you kept your secret only to Prince Jing.

I didn't think you kept it from me as well.

Prince Jing is the fortunate one

he doesn't know anything.

I don't think I can keep this from Jingyan any longer now.

If he figures out that the patient at Jiu An mountain was Nie da-ge

he will be suspicious of me.

I told you earlier

you tell him the truth.

Paper cannot contain fire forever

He may not know now that this person is Nie Feng, but I don't believe

That he doesn't have any suspicious of you

If I can hide it, then I might as well hide one thing at a time

Jingyan right now cannot be distracted.

Only when his power is steady enough

we can look for a opportunity to reverse the verdict of the old case

Even if we cannot find the opportunity, it is not of importance

- As long as Jingyan becomes the Emperor then...
- No way

Only the current Emperor can re-trail and rewrite the name for the Chiyan Army

Otherwise, in the eyes of the later world, a son reversing a verdict of the father will not seem appropriate

The important thing is the relationship between Jingyan and Prince Qi.

Others will think the resolution of the case is biased.

If things must be done cleanly,

then it must be thoroughly done.

You...

I can't win this argument.

I'm going to check up on Nie Feng.

Tearing of the skin and movement of the bones.

Where was I when you endured this pain?

Why could I not have been by your side?

Nihuang...I

- All these years-
- You don't need to explain.

I just want to know

how long do you have?

You can hide from anything else, but

this, you have to tell me.

Ten years.

That's enough.

Promise me

these next ten years

don't leave me again.

Another two you managed to convince. But then again, I'm not surprised.

That time, even my father couldn't convince you. How could they have?

- Right?
- Lin Chen...

I don't feel so good.

Hey! You can't just say you collapse and then really do it!

Awake now?

Drink this.

- Why is this so bitter?
- Water.

Is it because I get mad at you,

you try to scare me like this?

I need you to help me.

I know I have at most a year.

One year?

If keep going like this, you will be lucky to have six months.

- I know this.
- And yet you're still asking.

This is something I can't control. Only I can handle things for Jingyan

But now, I don't even know when I will collapse.

You already did.

If you collapse, then collapse. It's not like the empire will collapse.

Of course the empire won't.

Jingyan has a rash temperament. Consort Jing is in the palace.

Who will help him strategize? Will you?

I don't know him.

Right now, everything is going well.

Even if there are a few mistakes why worry?

The situation is still not ideal.

I calculated all these years, I can't at the most important time

let myself be the weak link that causes the plan to fail.

I would let Jingyan down.

So I must ask you.

Prince Jing must take on the burdens that is required.

He isn't a person that can't do it.

Why feel apologetic towards him?

Speaking of this, reopening of the Chiyan old case

is not your sole responsibility.

You are too stubborn on this point

that's why you are so tired.

Of course it is not only my business.

Mei Changsu is not only Lin Shu

he also carries the burden of hope for 70 000 dead souls.

It was not easy arriving to this day.

I still need to wait

to see Jingyan married and govern the country

One step at a time to control the court officials

I need to wait for the news of Xie Yue's death to arrive to the Capital.

Xia Jiang to be caught.

Until His Majesty agrees to re-open the Chiyan old case.

What I need most is time.

Don't worry, Physician Yan may have his medical skills,

but I too have my specialty in medicine as well.

With me here, you will not collapse.

I wanted to gain some fame from you in the new court.

How can I let you die so easily

- How can I let you die so easily?
- Thank you.

Don't say thanks. Not one word of it.

How about this

Give Fei Liu to me as a thank you gift.

No!

So heartless

did you forget who found you?

Definitely no!

The two of you stop fighting!

Don't break my dishes! Stop fighting okay?

Stop fighting!

Physician Yan, I'm sorry to disappoint you.

It doesn't matter who's skills you use.

Just listen to him.

Prepare a gift

and hide this secret letter in the gift box.

Let your wife bring it to your niece's palace.

Someone will handle it from there.

Concubine Fan doesn't need to worry about anything.

So you still have people in the palace working for you.

But inside this letter...

Leader Xia must be very prepared already

I won't ask for any more details.

Minister Fan.

It's better to know less sometimes.

Understood. Understood.

Hurry hurry, Madame is waiting.

Hurry, Madame has been waiting for too long.

Subbed by the Lang Ya Bang Team @ Viki Do not reuse or reupload our subs.

Qing-er, what are you doing?

I was just counting the gifts, so it's easier to move to the storeroom

Concubine wants to see the red guava box, hurry and send it over

It's right here. I'll bring it over right away.

I am Li Lin of the ministry of defense, greetings your highness.

Why are you here so late?

Please forgive me.

Very well. Rise.

Thank you, your Highness.

During the Spring Hunt, the Qing Li army rebelled, that means there are problems in the defense around the city

Go back and think about it carefully

and come up with a proposal for rearranging the troops.

In 20 days, come back to report to me

Do you understand?

Yes I understand. I will do accordingly to you.

You may leave now.

Is there something else?

No, your Highness. I will take my leave now.

- Minister Li
- Minister Shen

Your complexion isn't so good

did you do something to have his Highness reprimand you?

His highness did not reprimand me, he just gave me work to do.

Minister Li, you and I have worked together for a number years, so I don't want to overstep

but his Highness is not like the previous Crown Prince.

Don't try to overthink things or how he will deal with you.

Just do the work that is assigned to you

Not doing the work well because you were thinking about nonsense,

That is like one would be looking for trouble to harm themselves more.

- Take care.
- Take care.

Qing-er, did you take something?

I didn't take anything.

I saw you take something from the boxes with my own eyes.

To steal something from the palace, it has a heavy punishment.

Since are sisters, I have not reported it to madame.

Just put back what you took.

Qing-er, are you listening to me?

Just like you said, since we are sisters

if you can act like you saw nothing

that would be better.

Qing-er.

Qing-er!

Stealing something is a big crime.

Ones who suicide to repent for their crimes

Isn't just you only.

Your highness' gift that you sent me, I just saw it

it was just a small birthday

your majesty's over gifting will make me uncomfortable.

Is that counted as a lot of gifts?

I know your character very well, someone who is a little bit more simpler.

You are the mother of the crown prince of course you can handle it.

What else could there be to make you worry...

Today Jingyan came to the palace

and rushed away after a quick greeting and meal.

Is it because your Majesty assigned him an important task to do?

This child is hardworking

the work that I gave him

I didn't give him a deadline to get it done by. I don't know why he's in such a rush.

It's not a very important task then?

To say it's urgent, it could be urgent. To say it doesn't have to be, it can be.

The work I gave to him was to decrease the number of dukes and demoting them

decreasing and demoting?

Ou Da Liang has many nobles

and many things are changing

a lot of the new nobles

cannot be chosen like before.

I've always wanted to change it, but everyone is a familiar face

so it's very hard for me to move them.

This time is good, using the new Crown Prince's coronation

it is when he is full of energy and is feeling at his best.

I'll let him go

to go offend people for me.

No wonder. Before he left the palace

he had people invite Marquis Yan and Prince Ji to the Eastern Palace.

Really? Very good.

This Jingyan

has improved a lot these days.

He now knows to find people to help him.

Do you know, these two people

have a lot of connections outside the palace.

If they will help him explain and placate them

this would be much easier to do.

Good. Very good.

You said you have important news for me

and told me to send away my maids

Was it to have me deliver a message for Xia Jiang?

Yes.

You have the nerve.

Xia Jiang right now is a criminal and has nothing to do with Zhouren gong.

This time you came to me, are you trying to k*ll me with him?

What good would it be if we had you k*lled with him?

Back then you were in charged of the 6 palaces and sat equally with the Empress

Now that things has changed, aren't you upset that a female doctor is now in charge.

Prince Yu has died. Prince Ning and Prince Huai doesn't care much.

If Xiao Jingyan falls,

who will His Majesty think of next?

Back then, the Emperor loved and favor the Crown Prince.

But since the new Crown Prince has been chosen

it is easiest time to get hurt

I'm not stupid. I won't do what he wants me to do.

What if what Director Xia delivered to you is an iron hammer?

Madame should read

what this letter has to say

General Nie, remove your shirt and we will begin.

Dong jie, let us go outside. Lin Chen will not make a mistake.

Madame hasn't been well the past few days, but did not want to trouble your Majesty.

She has been quietly trying to recover. But suddenly yesterday, the illness got worse.

You can't even drink water. She would not stop saying your Majesty's name

and the previous Prince Xian, since he is now far in Xianzhou

I beg of your Majesty, please see our madame.

What has happened to Consort Xian to fall so ill?

Very well. I should go see her.

Yes.

The Emperor will go to Zhaoren Palace.

It looks like the treatment went well, Dong jie shouldn't need to worry now.

How could you tell that everything went well? My expression clearly said otherwise.

If it didn't go well, you would have jumped out the window instead of walking through the door as you just did.

Even if you saw through it, you didn't need to say it.

I have already removed the poison seven times, there will be no future attacks.

After two more days of rest, he can get out of bed and move around

After resting for a month, his strength will return to normal.

Thank you Sir Lin.

Just a thank you but no gift.

Don't mind him, just go inside.

Swapping out a criminal from the celestial prison is too dangerous.

It's very different to your usual careful style.

It seems like your style.

It's good you understand me.

You are right, Dong jie should not be out here for so long.

Tomorrow, when Brother Meng returns, we will send her back.

Alright, I've treated one already.

Tomorrow it's your turn. Are you ready?

If I say I haven't?

I don't care if you're ready, I'm ready to start it.

I trust you.

I trust myself too.

Old Master's personality is so calm and peaceful

how come yours is so different?

Of course when Old Master is in front of you he is like that.

But if he really was like that, how would your father when he crossed over to Lang Ya San

have fought with mine for three days? And then from that become life long friends?

That is true.

The wedding is set

You've been preparing all day in the manor

you must be nervous and afraid

Today, I asked you to come here to the Palace,

to comfort you, do not fret.

Thank you, Consort for your love and care

Jingyan is often in the b*ttlefield and has a martial arts person's temperament.

There are rumors out there that says

He isn't is gentle and sensitive person

You must have heard about it?

Don't worry, Jingyan's personality is very kind

He will not treat you badly in the future.

Madame, his highness is going to Zhaoren palace.

Consort Xian is ill, it is right that His Majesty makes a visit to her.

It is good, now I have time

to get to know my daughter-in-law.

Your illness has flared up three times already

and you look worse and worse, this isn't good.

Lin Chen

I know what you want to say, so you you don't need to say anything.

From this moment, aside from controlling your breathing, you must listen to everything I say.

Even if everything outside is going to hell, you are not to pay any heed to it.

Understand?

His Majesty has arrived.

Your highness, I am someone who deserve death

I could not imagine seeing you again before I die.

What are you talking about? If you are ill, we will treat it. Let's not say such words.

How could you have not taken good care of your madame? Allowing her to catch a cold.

Your Majesty, Consort Xian is not ill from a cold

she was frightened into illness.

Nonsense. Consort Jing has been managing the inner palace well, everything is peaceful.

What can cause such a fright?

Your Majesty is right, I only have a cold.

Don't try to fool me.

What do you want to say? You can tell me.

I am someone who is going to die soon, so I dare not lie to you

I am just afraid it will offend you.

Alright, alright, I will pardon you of your words.

Your highness knows that when Prince Xian was still at the Eastern Palace

to help him, I made connections with some ministers.

I know this.

After Prince Xian left, I lost communication with them

and have been quietly praying for Prince Xian.

But who could know, a few days ago

a secret letter was sent to me from outside the palace

to give to your Majesty.

What secret letter?

Nie da-ge is asleep?

Commander General Meng has prepared things for me, in two days, I will return to the prison.

Don't worry, we will take good care of him.

These two days have been so busy, I have been meaning to-

Dong jie, there is no need to say anything.

No matter what, I'm glad you're back and I'm happy for Nihuang.

Dong jie... you are Nihuang's best friend.

if in the future, there is a day that she meets someone who is fated

can you help me advise her?

Xiao Shu, you...

My condition right now, is actually not as good as it appears.

In fact, since Lin Chen is by my side, it means I don't have very long.

Even though my heart has never changed for Nihuang

but for this lifetime, she and I can not be together.

I can't say these words to her, I'm afraid she will not be able to handle it.

Nothing is absolute in the world, life is difficult, you understand it.

Dong jie, you are her good friend

You care more than anyone else, whether she is happy or not.

When I am gone, can you take care of her for me?

I originally thought

although your highness does not attend court anymore

but whatever big thing occurs

you can pass it to other ministers or the Eastern Palace to pass on

mo matter what, I shouldn't have anymore relations with the things outside the palace.

To be able to have this thought means you are understanding.

According to palace regulations, I was about to

send the secret message and messenger to Zhiluo palace for the Noble Consort to deal with

but I shouldn't have done it

I was curious, so I opened the secret letter

and after I read it, I couldn't eat, I couldn't sleep, and overnight I fell ill.

I was afraid to tell your Majesty

and was too afraid to burn it or hand it to the Noble Consort.

I didn't know what to do.

What did this secret letter say?

Xia Jiang's confession.

This is lily soup

after it is made, it has been iced, very suitable for hot days.

Thank you madame, I've already heard of you good cooking skills.

Listen out, when his majesty returns to Yangju palace, send a bowl over too.

Yes.

Does madame like Nanshu? [a type of tree]

Yes.

I have always liked them.

Xia Jiang committed treason, the evidence is clear

even if it is actually his handwritten confession, he probably says he is wrongly accused

and involved a few people

what has made you so scared?

Your highness is correct, I shouldn't be so unstable,

please have mercy, I will destroy it and never mention this again.

Stop doing that, what exactly did the letter say?

So that you didn't dare hand it to the Noble Consort?

I don't dare say it.

I order you to say it.

Speak.

The confession said, that Mei Changsu

is not only someone related to Prince Qi

he is actually a Chiyan traitor who escaped from Meiling.

What did you say?

He... is Lin Shu.

How are you?

Much better.

You are indeed a good physician.

I didn't here wrong right? Did you praise me?

When people are about to die, they really do become kinder.

I have already confined the messenger,

but she doesn't know anything and was just following orders.

Your highness, if you think this confession is fake

I will immediately had her to the Noble Consort to deal with.

This confession, is different to what he had writted in the celestial prison.

Lin Shu is definitely already dead

back then, Xia Jiang guaranteed it.

That year at Meiling, there was no way to survive.

Your highness is correct,

maybe Xia Jiang is intentionally trying to ruin your relationship with the Crown Prince

that poison of bitter flame sounds legitimate, but Xia Jiang could have made it up.

Even if Xia Jiang has magic

the history books in the imperial library

is not something he can falsify or change.

Your highness means

- Gao Zhan.
- Yes.

Call for the learned members of the Astrology Hall, as well as all the book handlers.

I want to see what is poison of bitter flame.

Yes.

Where is that person who passed you the message from Xia Jiang?

Your highness, do you want to see her?

I don't want to see her.

Since she brought the message here

I'm sure she will know how to reach Xia Jiang. Let her send him a message

Tell him that I will give him a chance to speak up

As long as his accusation is proved to be true,

I can pardon all of the previous crimes committed by the Xuanjing Bureau.

Yet, I am not entirely sure.

All you have to do is just send the message. It's up to Xia Jiang if he wants to enter the Palace.

Yes.

Afterward you send it, burn it.

From now on, don't come here anymore.

Why? Do you think you won't be able to convince the Emperor?

If the Emperor trust me,

Then Xuanjing Bureau will be restored

If things change to where I lose,

I'm afraid it would be hard for me to escape alive again

Sir,

Even if I am unable to return,

I will make sure they are unsuccessful.

Then, according to my orders,

you should notify all our hidden forces to begin the operation.

It doesn't matter if it's inside or outside the Palace. Their only motive is to wreak havoc.

As for the few people I've told you about,

k*ll them at all costs.

I will use my life to complete the task
