[Episode 27]

May I come in?

Come on in.

Qi Pa.

You're good.

A fan of cosplay?

Cosplay? What's that?

Cosplay means that

one minute you're Li Xiong,

and the next minute you're Kui Mulang.

I shouldn't have deceived you.

Nothing else to say?

I'm tired.

I wanna take a nap
but I just can't fall asleep.

Why don't you tell me a bedtime story?

When I was blind before,

you told me a lot.

That was because...

No need to explain.

You used to tell me a story

but I cut you off.

How about that one?

The one where you want

to travel the world with me.

Oh, I remember that one.

But I finished

telling that story.

Um...

Then tell me a story

from your childhood.

Happy ones or unhappy ones?

Both okay.

My childhood.

But my childhood

wasn't happy at all.

I didn't understand

why Jing Muhan could act as he pleased.

But I was

forced to study every day

and learn how to be a good king.

I remember one thing.

On my 16th birthday,

I went out of the palace without a disguise.

I never thought

that you could be so childish.

That was the first time I left the palace.

That day,

standing on the walls of Beast City,

I overlooked the entire city

and heard the laughter of my people
who live and work in peace and contentment.

At that moment,

I understood everything.

As long as I can

protect everything I love,

to be honest,

I'm okay with my fate.

That has made me who I am.

I did all the happy things

with you.

I'll always be at your side.

Great.

We can mass-produce the pills.

As long as the effect can last,

we can go ahead with our plan.

Now we can conduct tests on people.

Don't capture some villagers this time.

Get me some people from the palace.

Yes.

Haonan.

Let's go buy some

Eight-treasure Cake.

It's delicious and sweet.

Sure.

What's wrong, Haonan?

I feel that someone is stalking us.

Are you getting too tense

from all the patrol recently?

Why would anyone stalk us?

Fair enough.

Let's go.

Haonan.

The Eight-treasure Cake is incredibly tasty.

I didn't get you to try it last time.

Just eat it to your heart's content today.

Okay.

That candy.

It's super sweet.

What would you like?

How do you sell this?

Four bronze coins.

Four?

That's expensive.

What about this one?

Could you...

Hongxiu.

Wait for me here.

Be quick.

Why hasn't she come back yet?

Xiniang, feed the pills to them.

Yes.

Kneel down.

I'm your master now.

Yes, Master.

Congratulations on the success, Master.

Xiniang.

This is just the beginning.

The interesting part is yet to come.

You.

Go to the market

and buy a box of rouge.

Yes.

You go buy a good sword.

Yes.

Go ahead.

Xiniang.

Follow them

and see if they'll do what I asked.

Yes.

No need for etiquette.

How's the preparation going?

It's done.

Your Majesty, please make peace

with Her Highness as soon as possible

so that you can get the Holy Pearl back.

Kui Mulang.

How did I fall asleep?

What a good man!

I told you to put me to sleep.

And you put me to sleep.

Hongxiu, is that you?

It's me.

Are you awake?

May I come in?

Yes, I am.

But not fully awake.

Did he just leave?

Why did you leave

while I was asleep?

I...

You were sleeping soundly.

I didn't want to disturb you.

Then why are you back?

I know you're still mad at me.

But I will never cheat you again.

I swear to God.

If I lie to you again

in the future,

may I be punished by...

All right. That's it.

Do you think God would concern himself
with this?

Actually, I came to ask

if you're free today.

Let me check my schedule.

Let's see.

Tonight,

I'll have dinner with Hongxiu

and gossip with Chun'er

and Ma Yingxiong.

I see.

Let's take a rain check.

Wait a minute.

But I can still spare some time

if I try.

What.

You wanna

ask me out?

Today is River Lantern Festival.

Every family in town

will get out and float lanterns on the river.

If you're free tonight,

we can go have a look together.

I'll think about it.

That doesn't sound very alluring.

But since you insist,

I'll go with you.

Good then.

I'll pick you up later.

Let's have a good chat tonight.

Master.

They're just like normal people.

They talked with the sellers,

bought the items you wanted,

and double backed.

That's great!

Five years of hard work

to make the Soul-driving Pill.

Now it finally starts paying off.

Congratulations, Master.

So what is the next step?

Send them both

back to Beast Royal Palace.

Let them find a way

to make everyone there eat the pill.

But according to what you said,

the effect only lasts for one day.

Once the effect wears off,

we'll be unable to control them.

Don't worry.

As long as they take the pills on time,

the effect will continue.

and so does our control.

Okay.

Take a pill at dinner time on a daily basis.

Understand?

Yes.

One more thing.

Add the pills to the food
of the Imperial Kitchen

and tell everyone in the palace

to take orders from Su Daqiang.

Yes.

That's it.

Go back to the palace.

Master.

I have a question.

Why don't we put these pills

into the wells all over the city?

That way, we can control

all the people in Beast City.

That's too many people to control.

Besides, the pills must be taken every day.

Now I just need to control people
in the palace,

where the king of the Beast Clan lives.

Then I can control the entire Beast Clan.

That's wise of you, Master.

It's time to send He to the palace.

Just do as I told you.

Remember,

Jing Muhan and Haitang

can't know anything about it.

Yes.

I still have something

to say to He.

You stay here.

Give us some privacy.

Father.

I'm ready.

No rush.

He.

I have some questions for you.

Do you still

have an affection for Kui Mulang?

Father.

From now on,

I will never betray you again.

But I've thought it over.

If I could let Kui Mulang listen to me,

would you spare his life?

What if you fail?

I believe that

he isn't an ungrateful man.

He owes me.

But he already has a queen.

You told me that the queen

isn't a member of the Beast Clan.

I've accompanied Kui Mulang for years.

But she's only here for several months.

Fine.

I'll give you some time.

But if you fail again...

If I fail again,

I'll make a clean break with him.

Good.

I'll wait for your good news.

Yes.

Kui Mulang.

Don't expect me to go soft on you

just because you're sick.

This time

you must try your best to win me back.

Otherwise, I won't forgive you.

Are the river lanterns

of the Beast Clan good?

If your apology

is sincere enough

and the lanterns are beautiful,

I'll show some mercy

and give you a kiss

to save your life.

If you want more,

you'd better try harder.

He'll get smug about it

if he finds me wearing this.

Qi Pa.

What happened before was my fault.

I know

it was unforgivable

no matter how I put it.

That's why I...

Oh, not right.

One more time.

Qi Pa.

What happened in the past stays in the past.

Let's start over.

Still not right.

What should I do

to make it right?

Smell good?

Yeah, you do.

Hongxiu.

What are you doing here?

I made Her Highness some dessert.

Try some.

Date paste cake?

I'm allergic to red dates.

General Ma?

Her Grace doesn't care for date paste.

She prefers food like durian

with a pungent smell.

As for me,

Chun'er and I are one.

If Chun'er is allergic to it,

so am I.

Sorry about that.

What's wrong with Hongxiu?

Ignore her.

We're not married yet.

I... I got excited.

Too excited.

How about this?

I'll ask Her Grace and Prince Consort
for the hand of you tomorrow.

Tomorrow?

That's hasty.

No.

You must pick an auspicious day to do it.

In fact, I've checked

all the auspicious dates

when I was in Daxia.

The 15th of this month

is the best date of the year.

Chun'er

I like you.

Will you marry me?

Yes, I will.

Every year at this time,

I come here to float lanterns and make wishes.

What's your wish?

I wish Father, Mother,

Uncle, Aunt Lyu, Xingping,

Daxia people,

as well as

everyone I love

peace and joy.

Your wish will come true,

♪I gave you my hand♪

♪And we ran to chase the sunset♪

♪We made a wish♪

♪That's just between you and me♪

♪Firefly on your fingertip♪

♪The gaze you fixed on me♪

♪Was the eternity I dreamed of♪

Su He?

You're alive.

Your Majesty.

Su He.

I never thought

you'd still be alive.

Five years ago, you fell off the cliff.

I sent my men searching for you around.

But you were nowhere to find.

Where have you been all these years?

I got injured after falling off.

A granny in the countryside saved me.

But I lost my memory

until these two days.

I know that for every River Lantern Festival,

you go to that place

to pray for all the subjects.

So I went there to see you again.

Ex-girlfriend?

You've suffered a lot in the past five years.

Just say it if you want anything.

I'll give you double.

I did everything five years ago

because I was willing to

and I should.

I don't want anything in return.

I never thought

I would see you

and get in the palace again.

Your Majesty, I only hope

that I could stay by your side

and do something for you.

Miss Su.

How's your recovery from the injury?

Almost fully recovered.

You must be the new queen.

I've heard a lot that

the new queen is stunningly beautiful

and extraordinary.

Well, you're worthy of the reputation.

Full of pretense.

She must have come with evil intent.

I'm flattered.

You're also a pretty girl.

I'm always kind to beauties.

Su He.

I'm indebted to you
for what you did five years ago.

As a grateful man,

I will reward you to return the favor.

Go get some rest now.

I'll make arrangements for you.

As a matter of fact,

I have something

to say to you in private.

Miss Su He.

There's no one else but my queen and Liu Jun.

Please feel free to say anything.

It's okay.

You guys catch up.

I feel sleepy, anyway.

I'm leaving.

Your Majesty.

You must be clear that five years ago,

I took the palm hit for you

not just because of your identity

but because of

my feelings for you.

Su He.

I also told you five years ago

that I only see you as a subject,

not a potential lover at all.

Your Majesty.

Liu Jun.

Take Miss Su He to her room and rest.

Yes.

Miss Su.

Please.

Kui Mulang.

I will get you, I swear.

Your Highness.

What brings you here?

I...

I came to ask you something.

It's about His Majesty and Su He.

Oh, that.

I'll have to relate in details

from five years ago.

Back then, many things happened

between Su He and His Majesty.

How's it going on your end?

I failed.

Her Highness and Chun'er
are still in the kitchen.

What about Bai Ke and Hu Die?

I didn't succeed, either.

We'll find some other chances.

I got it.

Su He followed Kui Mulang for years

as his right-hand woman

and even saved his life once.

Yeah, right.

At that time,

rumor had it

that His Majesty and Su He
were a perfect match.

We thought Su He would be the queen.

Never mind.

I don't care

what other people think.

Did Kui Mulang...

His Majesty seemed

not to have special feelings for her.

The Elders suggested that Su He be the queen.

But His Majesty rejected it.

Yet Su He was really into His Majesty.

She always gazed at His Majesty

with those big, bright eyes.

Su Daqiang.

I've told you

all my secrets.

It's your turn.

What magic weapon

do you have to bring Kui Mulang down?

This is the Soul-driving Pill.

Except for Kui Mulang

with a powerful inner strength,

I can control anyone

and let them listen to me

by feeding them this pill.

What an evil thing!

I've planted two moles in the palace.

Wait and be patient.

The entire Beast Royal Palace

will be under my control in the end.

Now you get it.

What will you do to Kui Mulang?

k*ll him.

What about me?

I will help you

to become the king.

At that time,

the whole palace will be yours.

Kui Mulang has issued a wanted circular

to arrest you across Beast City.

You're in a dangerous situation.

There's no turning back indeed.

Fine.

I'll trust you this once.

I've left the palace for too long.

I remember a maid

whose name is Chun'er

She talks about the news in the palace.

Is she serving in the palace?

I'd like to talk to her

to know the current situation of the palace.

Chun'er is working on a gossip list

to summarize the hottest topics

in the palace for us.

I prepared

the latest one.

Her Highness made a big comeback

and is getting back together
with His Majesty.

Su He, who disappeared five years ago,
showed up suddenly.

Where is this love triangle going?

Miss Su.

It's just gossip from these young girls.

Please don't take it personally.

I won't.

I'm tired. I want some rest.

Then we'll be excused.

I won't let you get back together.

Come in.

Deputy Commander...

What brings you here?

Oh, right.

I'm no longer deputy commander.

Sorry, that was uncalled for.

Don't mind me.

Let's not stand on ceremony.

Just see me as your sister.

Sister Su.

Hu Die.

Back then, I thought you would

make a better deputy commander than me.

You must be pretty good at it.

I'm flattered.

But I know you have a secret

that's always been bothering you.

Sister Su.

What do you want from me?

These are deodorant pills.

I made them myself.

Take one and you'll smell good.

It can cover even that smell of yours.

I don't know what you're talking about.

I prepared this for you.

After all, you used to be my subordinate.

Sister Su.

Yeah, I was your sidekick before.

It's also true that

I became deputy commander

after you left.

But if you want this position back,

we can have a fair competition.

Hey, what are you saying?

We're sisters, come on.

How could I let your efforts

of all these years go to waste?

Just hear me out

and make your own decision.

You can pick any side.

But I promise you that

if you help me get rid of Qi Pa,

deodorant pills are available
for the rest of your life.

Get rid of Qi Pa?

In the words of my mother,

when a woman pretends to be pitiful,

she's up to something big.

Let's see what your plot is

behind that pretty face.

Your Majesty.

Her Highness is back.

You must have shared your mutual love.

Why not take the Holy Pearl back?

You're crossing a line here, Liu Jun.

I'm sorry, Your Majesty.

You think I don't want that?

But I've made a decision.

I'll have the Holy Pearl.

I also want a pure love

with Qi Pa.

No ulterior motives involved at all.

That has always confused me, Your Majesty.

Is there really such a clear demarcation

between the Holy Pearl
and your love for Her Highness?

I'm not entitled to ask this question.

But I'm just wondering

which came first, the desire to utilize her

or your love for her?

As you know,

ever since I became the heir,

I've been wearing a hood and a mask.

I never show people my true face.

For many years,

I was on my own.

Five years ago,

I lost the Holy Pearl

and my face started to transform
day and night.

Do you still remember

that to save your life

I showed you my true face by accident?

Yes, I do.

That was my first time

knowing this secret of the Beast Clan.

Your Majesty, you suffered a lot alone.

When I saw your face,

you should have k*lled me.

But you didn't.

You mean I should save you

and then k*ll you?

Over the years,

you've done your job well.

You never let me down.

That's what I should do.

Qi Pa also means a lot to me.

I got to know her because of the Holy Pearl.

But our relationship is now beyond that.

Even if she doesn't have the pearl,

I still want to be her only beloved.

And I couldn't bear the thought

of having anything else

standing between our relationship.

Now I understand.

Ms. Haonan.

Are you hungry?

Deputy Commander Hu asked me

to get some sweep soup for the soldiers.

But they didn't make sweet soup today.

What about some other day?

Okay.

Don't you find

the way Miss Su walks so elegant?

Yeah, very charming.

I want to be friends with her.

She's pretty and kind.

Let's go make friends with her.

Come on.

She must be willing to befriend us.

Right?

I think so.

Let's go.

Go.

What is that supposed to mean?

Not good.

I need to talk to Chun'er about it.

Chun'er.

Leave us alone.

Yes.

What do you need, Your Highness?

Just some gossip.

What's going on here?

How come Su He

is their role model overnight?

Yeah.

It's said that since she came here,

Su He has met many soldiers and maids.

She talked to them

and gave them gifts.

Now everyone loves her.

Is that so?

Yeah.

It has made the top of the gossip list.

[Fairy Su He is kind to everyone]
It has made the top of the gossip list.

[His Majesty's old lover is back]
Besides, they also say that she's

Besides, they also say that she's

the ideal queen everyone wants.

Then what am I?

Unlike you, Su He is just a commoner.

But you have a solid background.

Now many court maids

are dreamed of being her.

Oh, geez. How did it happen?

Su He is not a simple woman.

Have you heard about it?

Her Highness is the third person.

The third person?

Miss Su He and His Majesty

had feelings for each other.

But later Su He

went missing to save His Majesty.

Then Her Highness came.

She's the wedge

between Su He and His Majesty.

- Really?
- I...

Yep.

Don't tell anyone about this.

Okay.

Your Highness.

I don't buy it.

I don't produce gossip.

I'm just a gossip carrier.

However,

the topic of your being the third person

[Her Highness is the third person]
has ranked first on the gossip list.

I...

But don't worry.

Gossip is ever-changing.

Maybe in a few days,

this one will be replaced by another.

I'm sure I'm framed.

Su He beguiled them into believing it.

Don't worry about that.

It can't be her.

Though Su He did visit Commander Bai

a couple of days ago,

Commander Bai just ignored her,

not to mention listening to her nonsense.

Forget it.

It's not important.

Hu Die the Beauty.

I'm on duty today.

You're despicable.

Where does that come from?

You know perfectly

what you've done.

Su He already told me.

I knew it!

The game is on.

It's okay.

I'll show you

how to deal with

an angelic b*tch.

Miss Su He, hello.
