[Episode 4]

Grand Marshal, Fourth Concubine.

Congratulations, Grand Marshal.

Young Marshal and Miss Shen tie the knot.

Grand Marshal,

Hongzhou is indeed a nice place.

Young Marshal,

bring me the bridal veil, please.

Why take it so seriously?

The desire to look attractive

is universal.

Though it'll be all an act,

being pretty beats being ugly.

Well, which parts

do you think are not an act?

Madam,

I'm a waiter.

I'm here to deliver tea to you.

What are you doing here?

Xiaodie,

come away with me.

This is my only chance to save you.

I can't leave right now.

You should get out of here.

What do you want to do?

Let him go.

Don't forget we have a deal.

What kind of deal

is worth staking your life on?

Second Young Master, trust me.

Second Young Master of the Shen family,

today is my wedding day.

If you value your life,

get lost right now.

Go.

Just go.

Wait.

Is this how you put on an act?

Today,

we gather here

to bear witness to Mr. Nie Zhen

and Ms Shen Qingxia's sacred wedding.

This

is a glorious moment.

Therefore,

it's not reckless

or thoughtless.

Instead, it's pious and solemn.

Now,

Mr. Nie Zhen,

please address the ceremony

and toss the bride's bouquet

to its destined recipient.

Sorry, my honored guests,

I never do things by the book.

(Sorry, Miss Qingxia.)

(Xiaodie failed to uphold

the Shen family's dignity.)

In the Western world,

a bride's bouquet is a gift

from the newly-weds.

It represents sharing goodness

with those they care about.

But I'm a very selfish man.

I don't want to dilute

what Ms Shen Qingxia

and I are fated to have.

Therefore,

I swear,

no matter whether poverty

or wealth in the future,

I'm willing to take you as my wife.

Ms Shen Qingxia,

will you marry me?

Ha…

Good.

Um.

Well, your chief really did me proud.

He sure did.

Young Marshal's charm is matched

by his eloquence,

which undeniably proves

that a hero fathers no weakling.

You, uh,

need to keep close tabs on him.

Do not let him do anything stupid again.

Yes, sir.

Why did you change your mind

at the last moment

instead of unmasking me?

That Second Young Master has feelings

for you?

He and I grew up together,

but he's way out of my league.

There's no way we can be together.

Is he as much out of your league

as I am?

What you just said has nothing to do

with my question.

Are you doing all this to spite him?

If I wanted to blow your cover,

the easiest way

would be through the reporters,

but I didn't do that

because I gave up my plan last night.

That Second Young Master's got nothing

to do with it.

Why?

You're just a maid,

but you actually dared abduct me

for a mere pass.

I was just a bit desperate.

You're a mere servant girl,

but your young master risked his life

for your affections.

There are fools aplenty

in this world.

You're just a maid,

but you found out everything about me

in only an afternoon.

You left some vital clues behind.

I just appreciate your talents.

Because it strikes me

that you might surprise me again

if I keep you around.

That's all.

Young Marshal, don't you think

your explanation's a bit far-fetched?

What other reason do you need?

One that I find convincing enough.

I'm starting to take an interest in you.

Does this reason

sound convincing enough?

Let's make a deal.

This is a contract I drafted beforehand.

I'll try tracking down the one

you want to find,

and you'll stay by my side at all times.

I'll be your Young Marshal of a husband,

and you'll be my contractual bride.

We'll honor our deal,

sign our names, and make our crosses.

Keep our contract safe.

Don't worry about

what you should not worry about.
