    Episode 2
[01:46] ---
    Ever since I married Prince Ye in Yunshang's
    place, nothing good has happened to me.
[01:51] ---
    First, I was banished to that cold pavilion,
    then mistaken for an assassin.
[01:55] ---
    I've had enough!
[01:56] ---
    Well, it's all your fault. You had it
    good on Spirit Cloud Mountain.
[02:00] ---
    Hmph! Don't talk to me.
[02:02] ---
    I haven't forgiven you for
    abandoning me last night.
[02:06] ---
    But if you do me a favor,
    I'll consider forgiving you.
[02:11] ---
    Yeah? What kind of favor?
[02:13] ---
    Push me on the swing so I can save my strength.
[02:22] ---
    Faster! Faster!
[02:25] ---
    That's not high enough! Push harder!
[02:31] ---
    Push harder!
[02:34] ---
    Not high enough! Come on, come on!
[02:38] ---
    Haven't you had enough yet?
[02:40] ---
    How's this, then?
[02:42] ---
    Amazing!
[02:45] ---
    Who dares disturb the serenity
    of the palace so brazenly?
[02:47] ---
    Don't stop! Keep going! Keep going!
[02:50] ---
    I must find out who would be so bold.
    I will seize and discipline them.
[02:54] ---
    Amazing!
[02:54] ---
    Who is playing so self-indulgently in the
    Princely Palace in the middle of the... day?
[02:59] ---
    Let's do it again!
[03:07] ---
    Who is this, happily swinging by herself
    in this most venerable Princely Palace?
[03:11] ---
    Wow, I can't believe such
    a handsome man exists.
[03:19] ---
    You want to swing too, my lord?
[03:21] ---
    You may swing first. I will wait.
[03:23] ---
    Oh, of course. We can hardly swing together.
[03:26] ---
    Do not worry yourself. I will wait.
[03:30] ---
    Hey, don't get all lovestruck!
    I can't swing you both!
[03:34] ---
    Oh, it was nice talking
    to you, but it's getting late.
[03:37] ---
    I have to go. Another time, perhaps.
[03:40] ---
    Huh?
[03:42] ---
    But...
[03:46] ---
    Please wait.
[03:46] ---
    Yes?
[03:47] ---
    Even though I cannot play
    on the swing with you,
[03:51] ---
    may we... still be friends?
[03:54] ---
    My name is Yu Zimo.
[03:56] ---
    Might I ask your name, miss?
[04:03] ---
    What is the matter, miss? Are you all right?
[04:06] ---
    I'm fine. Thanks for asking.
[04:09] ---
    I'm a new handmaiden here. No one of note.
[04:11] ---
    Your position here is immaterial.
    There can be no harm in telling me your name.
[04:17] ---
    Hold it. I can't. Bye!
[04:23] ---
    As the old adage goes, not returning
    what one receives is impolite.
[04:26] ---
    I have told you my name,
    therefore, you must tell me yours.
[04:40] ---
    Miss!
[04:45] ---
    What is your name?
[04:48] ---
    You really wish to know it, my lord?
[04:53] ---
    Give me your name so that
    we may meet again one day.
[04:59] ---
    Fine.
[05:00] ---
    Don't ever forget...
[05:02] ---
    My name is "Grandma"!
[05:14] ---
    Step aside!
[05:15] ---
    Prince Ye is inside. You cannot enter.
[05:15] ---
    Move out of my way!
[05:17] ---
    What is it?
[05:18] ---
    It is me, Brother Ye.
[05:21] ---
    Unhand me.
[05:23] ---
    What are you doing?
[05:25] ---
    I desire a bath too.
[05:30] ---
    My waist is sore, and my back hurts.
    I require the water's soothing powers.
[05:34] ---
    Hm? What did you do?
[05:36] ---
    Nothing to deserve it.
[05:37] ---
    On my way here, one of your handmaidens
    performed a shoulder throw on me.
[05:43] ---
    Is there a maid so courageous in my palace?
[05:46] ---
    I should promote her.
[05:48] ---
    Brother Ye...
[05:49] ---
    Does your conscience not prick you?
[05:51] ---
    Never.
[05:52] ---
    Let me recount the story, dear brother.
[05:54] ---
    She was a curious young filly.
[05:57] ---
    It was the first time
    I luxuriated in a shoulder throw.
[06:00] ---
    I am happy for you.
[06:01] ---
    Dear brother, you have never experienced
    a shoulder throw, so you do not understand.
[06:04] ---
    I do not wish to.
[06:05] ---
    Brother Ye...
[06:07] ---
    May I have that handmaiden?
[06:09] ---
    What is her name?
[06:11] ---
    All I know is that she is new here.
[06:14] ---
    As she is new, I will send you
    all of my newly-hired maids.
[06:19] ---
    You are as generous as ever, Prince Ye!
[06:23] ---
    Well, anyway, how are you these days?
[06:26] ---
    I do not wish to discuss it. You know the truth.
[06:30] ---
    Of course, but I hear she is the most beautiful
    girl in the House of Grand Councilor.
[06:34] ---
    Many men have proposed to her,
    but all were rejected.
[06:37] ---
    And in the end, Father
    arranged for her to marry you.
[06:41] ---
    Do I take it... you are not fond of her?
[06:45] ---
    No. I am not. Did you have
    a reason for you mentioning her?
[06:50] ---
    Yes, I enjoy rubbing salt into the wound.
[07:01] ---
    What about that matter
     I asked you to investigate?
[07:04] ---
    It was as you suspected.
[07:06] ---
    That sly old fox, Qian Aotian,
    can no longer contain his impatience.
[07:10] ---
    I would like to see...
[07:12] ---
    ...whether he can escape from my grasp.
[07:15] ---
    He has already passed the point of no return.
[07:17] ---
    He should have known that this day
    would come when he chose to be disloyal.
[07:21] ---
    Once we have conclusive evidence,
[07:24] ---
    I will make the whole Qian
    clan pay with their blood.
[07:29] ---
    Would that not also include your princess?
[07:33] ---
    What a pity.
[07:48] ---
    If you ask me how much sorrow is in my heart,
[07:51] ---
    I will tell you it is like the
    river flowing east: endless.
[07:55] ---
    There is no escape from such sorrow.
[07:57] ---
    Just as I think it will depart my furrowed
    brow, it creeps back into my heart.
[08:02] ---
    Someone in the palace
    is as sorrowful as I am?
[08:05] ---
    A companion on the same sinking boat?
[08:08] ---
    Slicing water with a sword
    only makes it flow faster.
[08:11] ---
    Drinking to drown my sorrow only deepens it.
[08:14] ---
    How strong the east wind,
    how fleeting our happiness.
[08:16] ---
    An anxious heart, apart for years.
    Wrong, wrong, wrong.
[08:21] ---
    Wrong, wrong, wrong. I am so wrong.
[08:24] ---
    Why was I not told life could be
    so hard as the wife of a prince?
[08:30] ---
    At a time like this, we need
    comfort and embraces.
[08:35] ---
    We can embrace each other, back to back.
[08:37] ---
    Although the posture is so simple...
[08:42] ---
    ..my arm is not long enough to embrace you.
[08:50] ---
    For some reason, this doesn't feel right.
[08:56] ---
    Oh! You're a horse.
[08:58] ---
    You're a mare!
[09:00] ---
    Oh! A human being.
[09:03] ---
    My fellow human!
[09:03] ---
    My fellow horse!
[09:09] ---
    A long time ago, the prince would
    eagerly ride me all day long.
[09:14] ---
    But nowadays, I don't see him
    from one month to the next.
[09:19] ---
    What a jerk. He's so annoying,
[09:22] ---
    I don't like him.
[09:23] ---
    Just move on. You're too cute for that
    nasty buffoon. Why do you even like him?
[09:27] ---
    Find another master.
[09:30] ---
    It's not that easy.
[09:32] ---
    It usually goes like this:
[09:33] ---
    Horses I like never show up,
    and the ones that do are not my type.
[09:37] ---
    Don't worry, I like you.
[09:41] ---
    I know some psychic tricks.
[09:43] ---
    Let's hang out a lot in the future.
[09:45] ---
    My name is Qian Yunxi. What's yours?
[09:48] ---
    My name, Succubus, sounds
    like such a catty name.

[09:51] ---
    I don't want to tell her it.
    What should I do? Help!

[09:56] ---
    It doesn't matter what your name was.
    What's important is your name from now on.
[10:01] ---
    I, Qian Yunxi, on behalf of Nyx, the goddess
    of night, will give you a new name.
[10:06] ---
    From now on, your name will be: Crystal
    Butterfly Q. Purple-Dream-Elegant-Snow.
[10:12] ---
    Otherwise known as Juliet.
[10:15] ---
    Will you be my Romeo?
[10:17] ---
    Sure I will.
[10:18] ---
    From this day forward, I will be
    your eyes, your walking stick...
[10:23] ---
    ...and your Romeo.
[10:25] ---
    Don't call me Juliet just
    because you like me now,
[10:28] ---
    then dump me when you find another horse.
[10:31] ---
    No, that won't happen, Juliet.
[10:37] ---
    Juliet, I'd like to ride you. May I?
[10:40] ---
    Jump on and let me show you what I can do.
[10:47] ---
    Love ya!
[11:00] ---
    Succubus is no ordinary horse.
    She is extremely loyal.
[11:03] ---
    She refuses to let anyone
    ride her, except Brother Ye.
[11:06] ---
    She never lets me approach her,
    however I try to please her.
[11:08] ---
    Who is that girl? Why has
    Succubus not unseated her?
[11:16] ---
    Stop! Who are you? Who gave you
     permission to ride that horse?
[11:21] ---
    Who are you?
[11:22] ---
    Why can't I ride this horse?
[11:23] ---
    Is this your horse?
[11:24] ---
    Yes. This is my horse and you
    are not allowed to ride her.
[11:29] ---
    Romeo, he's lying to you. I am not his horse.
[11:35] ---
    If you can prove it,
    I'll give her back to you.
[11:38] ---
    Fine. I shall prove it.
[11:43] ---
    Here you go. Put on your show.
[11:46] ---
    Succubus, for Brother Ye's sake,
    please let me ride you today.
[12:07] ---
    Come and get me! I will let you
    ride me if you can catch me.

[12:13] ---
    This horse isn't yours at all. Liar.
[12:18] ---
    You are so mean to me!
[12:21] ---
    What a nasty woman!
[12:24] ---
    I'm telling Brother Ye!
[12:29] ---
    Don't cry now. Get up.
[12:35] ---
    Let me teach you how to tame Juliet.
[12:48] ---
    Hey, Mochi.
[12:50] ---
    Get me some food quick. I'm starving!
[12:53] ---
    Yunxi, welcome back.
[12:58] ---
    I rode a horse all afternoon,
    and now I'm tired and hungry.
[13:00] ---
    Help me find food...
[13:01] ---
    No, I won't.
[13:03] ---
    I never asked you to ride a horse.
[13:07] ---
    Mochi, what are you doing?
[13:09] ---
    It's not me. Don't blame me.
[13:11] ---
    If it isn't you, who else could it be?
[13:51] ---
    How dare you scare people!
[13:51] ---
    How dare you scare a ghost!
[13:54] ---
    Who are you? Tell us your name!
[13:58] ---
    My name is Sesame.
[13:59] ---
    I'm just a lonely ghost
    with a very low power level.
[14:02] ---
    Please forgive me.
[14:05] ---
    We'll forgive you, but from now on,
    you must serve us and tend to all our needs.
[14:14] ---
    That's no problem at all. I will do all I can,
    from serving you food to giving massages.
[14:20] ---
    Do you know what you need to do now?
[14:22] ---
    Yes. Please wait a moment.
[14:33] ---
    This is great!
[14:34] ---
    You are ridiculously lucky.
[14:36] ---
    In spite of all your mishaps,
    you always get your way.
[14:39] ---
    Of course!
[14:40] ---
    I am the invincible, undefeated,
    unbeatable Qian Yunxi.
[14:45] (Flashback) ---
    I want to take Auntie
    Xue and Que'er with me!
[14:47] (Flashback) ---
    Husband, you cannot allow it.
    More people equals more trouble.
[14:51] (Flashback) ---
    If they all go, the risk of exposure increases.
[14:55] (Flashback) ---
    Furthermore, they signed
    a life contract with us.
[14:58] ---
    My lady...
[15:00] (Flashback) ---
    You want them? Do you have
    the money to pay for them?
[15:03] (Flashback) ---
    Do not worry about us, my lady.
[15:05] (Flashback) ---
    We have been working here a long time.
[15:08] (Flashback) ---
    They will not treat us badly.
    Please do not worry.
[15:11] (Flashback) ---
    You need to take care of yourself, my lady.
[15:15] (Flashback) ---
    Come back and visit us when you have time.
[15:27] (Flashback) ---
    My lady...
[15:43] ---
    Auntie Xue... Que'er...
[15:51] ---
    Why are you screaming
    so early in the morning?
[15:53] ---
    What's wrong, Mistress Yunxi?
[15:56] ---
    What is it? Tell us what's got you down.
[15:59] ---
    It'll entertain us— I mean,
    so we can share the burden.
[16:03] ---
    I had a nightmare that Auntie Xue and
    Que'er were being treated appallingly.
[16:08] ---
    Don't worry, Mistress Yunxi.
    Dreams are the opposite of reality.
[16:12] ---
    Sesame is right.
[16:14] ---
    I know, but I'm still worried.
[16:18] ---
    Aren't you bored here?
    No one cares about you in this place.
[16:22] ---
    Why not sneak home and check it out?
[16:23] ---
    Exactly what I was thinking.
    No time like the present.
[16:27] ---
    But I am still a princess.
    I need to disguise myself.
[16:36] ---
    Did I not give you the maids you desired?
[16:39] ---
    I desire the one who threw
    me over her shoulder.
[16:41] ---
    You must have kept her for
    yourself, due to her beauty.
[16:45] ---
    General Xuan and I are
    discussing the Western Tribe.
[16:48] ---
    Stop your games.
[16:50] ---
    Western Tribe?
[16:52] ---
    But Father assigned Qian
    Aotian to deal with them.
[16:56] ---
    You heard so too?
[16:57] ---
    Indeed.
[16:59] ---
    The Western Tribe have
    been acting up lately.
[17:03] ---
    Father trusts Qian Aotian. Naturally,
    he sent him to solve the problem.
[17:09] ---
    But Qian Aotian's relationship
    with the Western Tribe is suspect.
[17:14] ---
    Examine our wares!
[17:15] ---
    Take a look at our homemade cloth!
[17:18] ---
    Fresh meat!
