15:25.503 --> 15:27.103 I really have no idea! 15:29.983 --> 15:31.663 I'm only making a guess. 15:32.143 --> 15:34.863 The Cui family is Empress Wenxi's maternal family, 15:34.863 --> 15:36.423 the top noble family in Ye, 15:36.583 --> 15:37.663 with deep roots. 15:38.103 --> 15:40.943 I'm merely a lowly County Sheriff. 15:41.623 --> 15:43.463 Where did the disease originate? 15:45.063 --> 15:45.943 Lingfeng Fort. 15:47.783 --> 15:50.903 The Cui family's granary is located right in Lingfeng Fort. 15:50.903 --> 15:53.343 The mines are also in Lingfeng Fort. 15:56.143 --> 15:59.343 Since the Cui family is Empress Wenxi's maternal family, 15:59.983 --> 16:01.623 when you took me to flee back then, 16:01.623 --> 16:03.543 why did you seek help from the Xiaos 16:03.583 --> 16:05.303 instead of turning to the Cuis? 16:05.823 --> 16:08.103 Why have you even hidden my existence 16:08.983 --> 16:10.623 from the Cui family over these years? 16:10.623 --> 16:12.463 Empress Wenxi was forced into it. 16:13.063 --> 16:14.983 She had just given birth 16:15.623 --> 16:17.743 when she heard of His Majesty's death. 16:18.063 --> 16:20.103 But she didn't intend to give up the Capital. 16:20.103 --> 16:21.143 The noble families 16:22.103 --> 16:24.303 deliberately delayed sending troops. 16:24.423 --> 16:26.463 When the army reached the city gates, 16:26.463 --> 16:28.503 Cui Jun submitted a secret memorial, 16:29.503 --> 16:32.423 hoping that the Empress would sacrifice her own family 16:32.423 --> 16:33.663 for the bigger picture. 16:33.663 --> 16:34.863 What bigger picture? 16:35.263 --> 16:36.983 To win over the noble families, 16:37.023 --> 16:38.903 she had to dispatch the remaining Imperial Guards 16:38.903 --> 16:41.183 to escort these noble families as they fled south. 16:41.183 --> 16:42.703 The Empress was left alone, 16:43.223 --> 16:44.663 with His Majesty's child, 16:45.383 --> 16:46.943 defending the Capital by herself. 16:46.943 --> 16:49.063 The nobles abandoned the Empress 16:49.063 --> 16:50.583 to save the Ye Empire. 16:50.583 --> 16:51.383 From then on, 16:51.823 --> 16:54.663 the Cui family rose to become the head of the noble families. 16:54.663 --> 16:56.303 Your mother, Empress Wenxi, 16:56.743 --> 16:57.783 died at that time. 17:00.423 --> 17:01.023 Qing Long, 17:02.103 --> 17:04.343 report the news about Guazhou to Jiankang immediately 17:04.343 --> 17:05.823 and send a secret letter to the Eastern Palace— 17:05.823 --> 17:07.103 the Cui family is suspicious, 17:07.103 --> 17:08.263 and the marriage needs to be reconsidered. 17:08.263 --> 17:09.623 Find an excuse to put it off. 17:09.623 --> 17:10.343 Understood. 17:13.063 --> 17:13.703 Nanxing? 17:15.383 --> 17:16.263 Your Highness, 17:16.503 --> 17:18.023 please save our Young Lady. 17:18.103 --> 17:19.863 The Cui family tricked her into coming here 17:19.863 --> 17:20.863 and caught her. 17:20.863 --> 17:22.983 Weren't she and Yuan Xiaoliu supposed to go to Mount Tugao? 17:22.983 --> 17:24.023 Why did they end up in Guazhou? 17:24.023 --> 17:25.543 That was the original plan. 17:25.543 --> 17:27.503 But Her Ladyship received a letter from the Princess. 17:27.503 --> 17:28.263 The Princess said 17:28.263 --> 17:30.223 there were black-radiance ores here that she once looked for 17:30.223 --> 17:31.743 and invited her to take a look. 17:31.743 --> 17:33.143 Yet she fell into a trap 17:33.143 --> 17:34.343 after arriving here. 17:34.583 --> 17:36.423 What did the Cuis capture Xie Jiayu for? 17:36.423 --> 17:38.343 The Cuis not only run illegal mines 17:38.423 --> 17:40.583 but also kidnapped the Princess and Xie Jiayu. 17:40.583 --> 17:41.903 They must be up to something else. 17:41.903 --> 17:43.303 You two get ready and follow me 17:43.303 --> 17:44.583 into Lingfeng Fortress right away. 17:44.583 --> 17:46.583 Your Highness, you must be careful. 17:46.783 --> 17:48.463 The nobles' forts are always heavily guarded. 17:48.463 --> 17:49.463 How will we get in? 17:52.223 --> 17:53.703 We'll walk in aboveboard. 17:59.183 --> 18:00.183 What's your name? 18:00.903 --> 18:01.463 My name is... 18:01.463 --> 18:02.063 Forget it. 18:02.383 --> 18:04.063 It doesn't matter what your name used to be. 18:04.063 --> 18:04.943 From today on, 18:05.063 --> 18:05.983 you'll be called 18:06.503 --> 18:07.103 Yueniang. 18:08.383 --> 18:10.103 Singing, dancing, or whatever— 18:10.103 --> 18:11.423 just show me something. 18:11.983 --> 18:12.903 I don't know how. 18:12.943 --> 18:14.503 I've always hated composing poetry or couplets 18:14.503 --> 18:15.543 just to put on airs. 18:15.543 --> 18:18.503 And I abhor "Admonitions for Women" even more. 18:23.063 --> 18:23.863 How about... 18:25.223 --> 18:26.623 I do a magic trick for you?

The imperial palace? 19:00.223 --> 19:01.823 You want me to go to the imperial palace with your sister? 19:01.823 --> 19:03.423 Aren't you hurting her this way? 19:03.423 --> 19:05.743 It's her own fault for always going against me. 19:05.743 --> 19:07.743 She has to meddle in everything I do. 19:08.183 --> 19:09.623 It's nice to have someone care about what you do. 19:09.623 --> 19:11.103 Unlike me, no one keeps me in check. 19:11.103 --> 19:13.663 I have suffered so much in my life. 19:15.143 --> 19:16.463 Given your status, 19:16.823 --> 19:18.703 who would dare to make you suffer? 19:19.903 --> 19:20.543 Pardon? 19:20.663 --> 19:22.743 Do you know, in these troubled times, 19:23.303 --> 19:25.303 how much money it costs to maintain 19:25.503 --> 19:27.623 such beautiful black hair like yours? 19:27.983 --> 19:31.023 It symbolizes a life of abundance only someone who's never 19:31.023 --> 19:33.263 suffered from cold or hunger could live. 19:33.783 --> 19:36.103 You're a girl raised in wealth and luxury. 19:36.143 --> 19:39.223 Yet our Lingfeng Fortress only takes in refugee girls, 19:40.103 --> 19:43.583 who know nothing about singing, dancing, or Nine-Linked Rings. 19:43.583 --> 19:45.143 They can't even afford food. 19:45.143 --> 19:46.863 Someone as versatile 19:47.023 --> 19:48.623 and healthy as you 19:49.303 --> 19:50.823 is the first we've ever had. 19:54.823 --> 19:55.423 Tell me. 19:56.583 --> 19:57.303 Who are you?
