    Episode 5
[01:51] ---
    Prince Yu, Your Highness.
[01:54] ---
    I am here by order of Princess Lanshuang to
    present you with this Xiang's grilled gluten.
[02:03] ---
    You deemed this an important matter?
[02:09] ---
    This grilled gluten is a gesture
    of goodwill from Her Highness,
[02:11] ---
    seasoned with the spiciest cumin.
[02:14] ---
    Please enjoy.
[02:16] ---
    I see. Tell my sister I am very
    grateful for her kind thoughts.
[02:23] ---
    A reward for you.
[02:24] ---
    No matter who calls today, I am indisposed!
[02:27] ---
    Ah, Your Highness!
[02:45] ---
    That Lanshuang knows how to vex me.
[02:57] ---
    Young maiden... let us talk.
[03:27] ---
    This is...
[03:39] (Flashback) ---
    The Western Tribe have
    been acting up lately.
[03:42] (Flashback) ---
    Father trusts Qian Aotian. Naturally,
    he sent him to solve the problem.
[03:47] (Flashback) ---
    But Qian Aotian's relationship
    with the Western Tribe is suspect.
[03:51] ---
    Qian Yunshang...
[03:53] ---
    Princess Ye.
[03:55] ---
    Is she a spy sent by Qian Aotian?
[04:04] (Flashback) ---
    Assassin?
[04:06] (Flashback) ---
    I don't know what you're talking about!*
[04:22] ---
    Your Highness?
[04:24] ---
    Your Highness?
[04:59] ---
    Qian Yunshang. Princess Ye.
[05:03] ---
    I knew it. You came here to ruin me.
[05:19] ---
    Prince Yu, you cannot barge in here like this.
[05:23] ---
    Good timing. Hand her over to me.
[05:26] ---
    And the lies begin. You already
    spirited her away, did you not?
[05:30] ---
    What did you say?
[05:32] ---
    She has been taken?
[05:34] ---
    Who took her? Can you not even keep her safe?
[05:39] ---
    Playing the victim now?
[05:41] ---
    Do not tell me this little
    spectacle is a ploy to keep her...
[05:48] ---
    After she disappeared, I found this.
[05:50] ---
    Is this not your pendant?
[05:53] ---
    I have mine here.
[06:02] ---
    These pendants were bestowed
    on the princes by Father.
[06:05] ---
    Only two exist in the world.
[06:08] ---
    If it is not mine,
[06:09] ---
    it can only be his.
[06:46] ---
    Ah, good.
[06:47] ---
    You are finally awake.
[06:49] ---
    You!
[06:51] ---
    Yes, it is I. You are right.
[06:53] ---
    You never thought you
    would see me again, did you?
[06:56] ---
    How could the noble Crown Prince kidnap me
     so underhandedly? And why am I tied up?
[07:01] ---
    Prince Ye and Prince Yu are fighting over you.
[07:05] ---
    Naturally, as Crown Prince, I want to join in.
[07:07] ---
    That's between you guys.
    I've got nothing to do with those two.
[07:11] ---
    Let me go now...
[07:14] ---
    You have much to do with them.
[07:18] ---
    When I was younger, I lived a carefree,
    unrestrained life surrounded by beauties.
[07:22] ---
    I was a wild stallion, enjoying
    the prosperity I deserve!
[07:26] ---
    But dear Ye Youming set me
    up to be the Crown Prince.
[07:30] ---
    Less money, more work, no time away.
[07:32] ---
    Wake early, bed down late,
    and liver cirrhosis on the way!
[07:39] ---
    I will keep you here in my palace,
[07:42] ---
    and watch Ye Youming suffer without you.
[07:49] ---
    So it was that creepy Jun Yiqing.
[07:51] ---
    It is my fault for lowering my guard
    and allowing him to kidnap the girl...
[07:56] ---
    A thought occurs. A harmony has developed
    between Jun Yiqing and Qian Aotian.
[07:59] ---
    Perhaps the incidents are related?
[08:09] ---
    This is quite a fetching shape actually.
[08:11] ---
    Untie me now!
[08:12] ---
    Or you'll regret it!
[08:15] ---
    If I untied you, you would strike me.
[08:17] ---
    What if I give you a present?
[08:27] ---
    If you promise to stay...
[08:30] ---
    these priceless blood-jade
    earrings are yours.
[08:39] (Flashback) ---
    Mistress, these blood-jade earrings
    were bestowed on me by your mother.
[08:44] (Flashback) ---
    They are the only pair in the world.
[08:46] (Flashback) ---
    I always keep them close to me to keep
    them safe, so you must not play with them.
[08:53] ---
    It seems you appreciate them.
[08:56] ---
    Do they stir emotion in you?
    These earrings are one of a kind.
[09:00] ---
    A nod of the head and they are yours...
[09:04] ---
    Might I ask Your Highness, the Crown Prince,
    where he got these blood-jade earrings?
[09:09] ---
    They were a gift from Grand Councilor Qian.
[09:13] ---
    Grand Councilor Qian?
[09:16] ---
    Then, Your Highness's relations with Grand
    Councilor Qian are more than just cordial?
[09:19] ---
    Naturally!
[09:21] ---
    I am well-liked in the Imperial court.
    Everyone wishes to be my friend.
[09:28] (Flashback) ---
    You might willingly accept gifts from
     Qian Aotian, but I shall not wear them.
[09:32] (Flashback) ---
    I may be Crown Prince, but no one listens to me.
[09:36] (Flashback) ---
    If I had refused the gift,
    he would have taken offense.
[09:39] (Flashback) ---
    Your Highness, have you
    forgotten how General Nan died?
[09:45] (Flashback) ---
    I am also in a bind over it.
[09:50] ---
    Now do you see my virtues? I am sure that you do.
[09:53] ---
    If you agree to stay in my palace,
     these earrings are yours.
[10:00] ---
    I don't want them. I am Princess Ye.
[10:03] ---
    What... What did you say?!
[10:12] ---
    I am Princess Ye, Qian Yunshang.
[10:23] ---
    Even better.
[10:30] ---
    My intention all along was to
    rile that stony-faced Prince Ye.
[10:33] ---
    Today, it seems you and
    I will be engaging in carnality.
[10:43] ---
    What are you doing, Your Highness?
[10:49] ---
    B-B-B-Beloved wife...
[10:51] ---
    You did not tell me you
    had a guest, Your Highness.
[10:54] ---
    Oh, um, I can explain.
    This is a misunderstanding.
[10:59] ---
    Then, please, finish your story.
[11:03] ---
    Trouble, Highness!
[11:03] ---
    My hair! My hair!
[11:05] ---
    Prince Ye and Prince Yu
    have barged into the palace!
[11:19] ---
    Bring her out here, Jun Yiqing.
[11:21] ---
    Give me back the girl.
[11:24] ---
    Of what do you speak?
    I do not understand what you mean.
[11:38] ---
    Look familiar?
[11:39] ---
    Oh! Is this not your pendant, Prince Ye?
[11:43] ---
    How could you so carelessly misplace it?
[11:49] ---
    Mine is here.
[11:51] ---
    Only you would abduct her so ineptly, and seek
    to stoke distrust between Brother Ye and me.
[11:57] ---
    Heaven and earth bear
    witness to my love for my wife.
[12:00] ---
    Do not cast these false accusations at me.
[12:03] ---
    Is that not true, dear wife?
[12:05] ---
    I saw her here only moments ago.
[12:17] ---
    I-It is a long and complicated story.
[12:21] ---
    Show us to her.
[12:32] ---
    I, uh... Like I said, she is not here.
    Why do you not believe me?
[12:39] ---
    It grows late. I still have
    matters to attend to.
[12:52] ---
    One last time. Where is she?
[12:57] ---
    Where is she?
[13:02] ---
    I see. So she is indeed Princess Ye, your wife.
[13:05] ---
    "Princess"?
[13:06] ---
    Why are you so concerned? Is it because
     you wish to find your enemy's daughter?
[13:10] ---
    Or do you have feelings for her now?
[13:12] ---
    You must know of Qian Aotian's
    relationship with the Western Tribe.
[13:16] ---
    That is between me and my princess.
    It is certainly no business of yours.
[13:21] ---
    Princess...
[13:23] ---
    If you are tired of living...
[13:26] ---
    I can remedy that.
[13:30] ---
    Do it!
[13:31] ---
    Kill me, then you can have
    the title of Crown Prince back.
[13:37] ---
    I promise you, His Highness truly
    does not know where Princess Ye is.
[13:41] ---
    Princess...
[13:49] ---
    She was in this room a moment ago.
[13:51] ---
    We left her here. Then, when we came
    back with you, she had disappeared.
[14:00] ---
    My dear wife still loves me.
[14:02] ---
    Is this true?
[14:04] ---
    I saw her with my own eyes. I would not lie to you.
[14:07] ---
    Release me. Take your hands off me...
[14:10] ---
    As your wife vouches for you...
[14:16] ---
    We are leaving.
[14:21] ---
    Shoo, shoo, shoo. Get out, get out.
[14:23] ---
    Be quiet.
[14:36] ---
    Good to go!
[14:43] ---
    Mistress Yunxi, are we really
    going to leave like this?
[14:51] ---
    Auntie Xue always kept these with her.
[14:55] ---
    But the Crown Prince received
    them as a gift, so I'm worried...
[15:00] ---
    Since Father didn't keep his word
    and take care of Auntie Xue,
[15:03] ---
    I no longer have to be Princess Ye.
[15:11] ---
    Let's go home.
[15:12] ---
    Once we find Auntie Xue,
    we can leave this place forever.
[15:31] ---
    Grand Councilor Qian is holding a feast?
[15:39] ---
    Yes.
[15:40] ---
    We all know that you are the de facto
    leader of the Western Tribe, Lord Beitang.
[15:46] ---
    To maintain the everlasting
    friendship between our nations,
[15:49] ---
    Grand Councilor Qian hopes you can attend.
[15:54] ---
    Then, how can I refuse his offer?
[15:58] ---
    I, Lord Beitang...
[16:02] ---
    ...will attend this feast.
[17:42] ---
    House of Grand Councilor
[17:44] ---
    Yuchui, hurry. The feast is about to begin.
[17:47] ---
    My lady, you look most beautiful.
[17:49] ---
    Lord Beitang will undoubtedly
    fall for your charms today.
[17:55] ---
    I deserve death. Please
    do not be angry, my lady.
[17:58] ---
    Lord Beitang is the head
    of the Western Tribe.
[18:01] ---
    Who would want attention
    from a barbarian like him?
[18:04] ---
    Fetch my lipstick.
[18:05] ---
    Yes, my lady.
[18:09] ---
    Lord Beitang, be in no doubt:
    your heart belongs to me.
