01:29.983 --> 01:32.983
[Episode 28]

01:33.583 --> 01:34.943
She doesn't remember anything.

01:35.703 --> 01:37.143
She doesn't remember Li Hongqing.

01:38.583 --> 01:39.503
Like this,

01:41.343 --> 01:43.703
do you really think she'll ever be happy?

01:54.063 --> 01:54.783
Qianqing...

01:56.343 --> 01:58.103
I remember now.

02:00.783 --> 02:02.743
I wanted to go with you...

02:04.663 --> 02:05.903
outside the palace.

02:26.463 --> 02:28.063
We must never let Xiao Ying remember!

02:30.143 --> 02:30.943
Madam,

02:31.743 --> 02:33.223
Xiao Ying has never seen you.

02:33.463 --> 02:34.263
No.

02:35.703 --> 02:36.503
No...

02:37.263 --> 02:38.263
He's so smart.

02:38.823 --> 02:41.223
He's bound to pick up on some clue about me.

02:44.143 --> 02:45.383
We can't let Xiao Ying live.

02:46.023 --> 02:47.303
She has to die!

02:47.583 --> 02:49.223
Rest easy, Madam.

02:50.263 --> 02:51.783
She may not make it through.

02:56.703 --> 02:58.223
Xiao Ying couldn't kill him.

02:58.863 --> 03:00.623
Ling Xuefeng couldn't kill him.

03:01.863 --> 03:03.623
Why does he always slip away?

03:06.423 --> 03:08.383
Looks like I'll have to do it myself.

03:11.983 --> 03:13.583
Ever since he seized that little witch,

03:14.143 --> 03:16.543
Qianqing hasn't set foot in Xuanguang Hall.

03:17.623 --> 03:18.663
This son of mine

03:18.703 --> 03:20.223
would toss me aside

03:20.383 --> 03:21.943
for some lowborn woman!

03:22.143 --> 03:23.863
His Highness must be busy with state affairs.

03:24.103 --> 03:25.423
Busy with what?

03:25.863 --> 03:28.703
If he spared even half a thought for proper duties,

03:28.983 --> 03:30.943
I wouldn't have to worry like this.

03:41.103 --> 03:42.023
These flowers

03:42.423 --> 03:43.543
need trimming.

03:44.303 --> 03:45.463
You are right, Your Majesty.

03:52.583 --> 03:54.063
Greetings, Your Majesty.

03:59.263 --> 04:01.423
This is Rest Incense I've prepared myself.

04:02.743 --> 04:05.063
Your Majesty may find it useful these days.

04:06.703 --> 04:09.703
You've personally made incense for me?

04:10.703 --> 04:11.943
If I remember right,

04:12.423 --> 04:14.423
this is the first time in five years.

04:16.623 --> 04:18.503
I was disrespectful before.

04:19.183 --> 04:20.783
Please punish me, Your Majesty.

04:20.783 --> 04:21.943
[Rest Incense]

04:22.743 --> 04:23.543
Don't say that.

04:24.423 --> 04:26.743
Everyone in this palace knows

04:27.183 --> 04:28.943
you are His Majesty's man

04:29.583 --> 04:31.663
and that you are wary of Xuanguang Hall,

04:31.743 --> 04:32.943
so you keep your distance.

04:33.383 --> 04:34.543
I understand.

04:37.503 --> 04:39.303
Prince of Yuzhang's loyalty to His Majesty

04:39.823 --> 04:40.943
far surpasses mine.

04:41.703 --> 04:43.583
I was narrow-minded before.

04:44.303 --> 04:45.303
Preceptor Du,

04:45.743 --> 04:46.943
why would you say that?

04:48.063 --> 04:49.943
His Highness has given his all to assist His Majesty.

04:50.623 --> 04:52.943
Now Great Qi stands secure,

04:53.383 --> 04:54.943
and His Majesty holds power firmly in hand.

04:55.303 --> 04:57.423
Yet His Highness chose to withdraw at his peak,

04:57.423 --> 04:58.623
indifferent to rank and reward,

04:58.743 --> 05:00.343
a true example to the realm.

05:00.943 --> 05:01.783
All of this

05:02.183 --> 05:04.023
is thanks to Your Majesty's kindness

05:04.703 --> 05:06.063
and wise guidance.

05:09.823 --> 05:11.263
You may speak freely.

05:12.143 --> 05:13.863
About His Highness stepping back,

05:14.143 --> 05:15.223
what exactly did he do?

05:18.143 --> 05:19.823
So Your Majesty truly didn't know?

05:22.063 --> 05:24.863
Then I've overstepped by speaking out of turn.

05:29.623 --> 05:31.063
His Highness is so upright and selfless

05:31.623 --> 05:34.023
that he's given both his royal seal and his command token to His Majesty.

05:34.503 --> 05:37.183
His loyalty is pure enough.

05:37.503 --> 05:38.263
I'm ashamed

05:38.743 --> 05:40.103
by comparison.

05:41.503 --> 05:42.943
I shall take my leave.

06:02.503 --> 06:03.783
Ask Qianqing to see me!

06:03.943 --> 06:04.743
At once!

06:04.943 --> 06:05.703
Yes, Your Majesty.

06:09.623 --> 06:10.383
So,

06:11.183 --> 06:12.263
you handed over your royal seal

06:13.143 --> 06:14.063
and your command token

06:15.183 --> 06:16.383
just like that?

06:18.943 --> 06:20.543
You decided this on your own

06:22.143 --> 06:25.343
and couldn't even be bothered to tell me?

06:26.143 --> 06:27.663
Of course you would object.

06:28.703 --> 06:30.583
But I've already thought it through.

06:35.063 --> 06:36.383
As a prince,

06:37.143 --> 06:39.183
you feel nothing for the throne.

06:40.263 --> 06:43.543
And now, you've even handed over

06:44.223 --> 06:45.863
your command token and seal?

06:46.223 --> 06:47.783
If I don't lay these burdens down,

06:48.743 --> 06:49.943
where else

06:50.103 --> 06:52.023
can I ever find true freedom?

06:52.863 --> 06:53.623
Qianqing...

06:55.543 --> 06:57.583
how many times have I told you?

06:57.743 --> 06:58.703
Your brother,

06:59.183 --> 07:00.063
Xiao Huan,

07:00.503 --> 07:01.983
is extremely calculating.

07:02.423 --> 07:04.303
If you hand these over today,

07:04.343 --> 07:06.863
tomorrow could be the day we die!

07:09.783 --> 07:11.343
I've already made up my mind.

07:12.663 --> 07:13.663
Beat me or punish me,

07:14.743 --> 07:15.543
whatever you wish.

07:17.423 --> 07:18.983
You ungrateful son!

07:19.183 --> 07:21.783
Do you know what it has cost me to live to this day?

07:28.183 --> 07:28.983
The late Emperor

07:30.103 --> 07:32.863
lavished all his affection on that shady woman of unknown origin.

07:33.223 --> 07:35.383
He even made her empress.

07:36.303 --> 07:37.383
When she died,

07:37.623 --> 07:40.343
he made her sickly son crown prince.

07:41.743 --> 07:45.183
Our Liu clan has served loyally for three generations,

07:45.983 --> 07:47.183
a house of high rank.

07:47.183 --> 07:48.703
How am I any worse than her?

07:49.423 --> 07:50.183
And you,

07:50.783 --> 07:52.863
how are you any worse than that sickly wretch?

07:53.663 --> 07:54.983
What has gotten into you all?

07:55.423 --> 07:56.743
Have you all gone mad?

07:59.663 --> 08:00.463
Qianqing,

08:02.103 --> 08:04.063
Xiao Huan is not your brother.

08:05.543 --> 08:07.863
He's someone who could take your life at any moment,

08:08.423 --> 08:09.543
your enemy!

08:12.543 --> 08:14.583
In all the prices you've paid,

08:16.983 --> 08:18.223
does that include Ying?

08:22.663 --> 08:23.423
You...

08:23.743 --> 08:24.943
You're talking nonsense again.

08:25.423 --> 08:27.383
Deep down, we both know

08:28.063 --> 08:29.703
what really happened with that fire

08:30.543 --> 08:31.823
at Luling Palace!

08:32.423 --> 08:33.463
You were so harsh on my imperial brother

08:33.463 --> 08:34.663
that the palace servants dared to abandon their posts,

08:34.663 --> 08:35.543
and that led to the fire.

08:35.543 --> 08:36.263
If not for you,

08:36.703 --> 08:38.343
Ying would never have ended up like this!

08:38.383 --> 08:39.383
How dare you!

08:39.823 --> 08:43.263
Why did the late empress suddenly die of a mysterious illness?

08:44.063 --> 08:45.663
Why was her son

08:46.023 --> 08:47.623
born with cold poison?

08:47.783 --> 08:48.543
Mother,

08:49.663 --> 08:50.703
do you dare

08:52.183 --> 08:53.383
look into these things?

08:58.703 --> 09:01.183
There is a limit to this kind of wild talk!

09:05.303 --> 09:06.103
Mother,

09:08.463 --> 09:09.783
do you love Ying?

09:15.023 --> 09:16.503
And have you ever loved me?

09:17.703 --> 09:19.663
Do you think everything I've done

09:19.823 --> 09:21.263
was to hurt you?

09:27.183 --> 09:28.263
Maybe you did.

09:29.303 --> 09:30.263
But the day comes

09:31.423 --> 09:33.783
when we can no longer be tools in your battles,

09:35.423 --> 09:36.503
you'll stop loving us, don't you?

09:41.543 --> 09:42.503
You...

09:47.023 --> 09:48.543
Mother, you've spent your whole life

09:49.303 --> 09:50.903
trapped in this palace.

09:52.103 --> 09:53.863
I don't want to repeat your fate.

09:55.503 --> 09:56.343
This palace

09:57.463 --> 09:59.583
is nothing but a gilded cage.

10:02.903 --> 10:04.063
Have you ever

10:05.023 --> 10:06.343
truly been happy here?

10:07.863 --> 10:08.903
Ying included.

10:10.463 --> 10:11.983
She was completely innocent,

10:13.023 --> 10:14.823
yet still got dragged in!

10:16.103 --> 10:17.263
I've thought it through.

10:17.783 --> 10:19.103
Once Ying recovers,

10:19.743 --> 10:21.783
I'll take her away from here at once,

10:22.383 --> 10:23.343
back to Southern Chu.

11:21.543 --> 11:22.463
What's wrong?

11:22.743 --> 11:23.503
Nothing.

11:25.983 --> 11:27.463
Did you argue with your mother?

11:27.783 --> 11:28.823
She hit you?

11:31.143 --> 11:32.943
News sure travels fast with you.

11:38.023 --> 11:38.823
Zhong Lin...

11:40.383 --> 11:41.543
I'm in a bad mood,

11:42.623 --> 11:43.743
and my wound hurts.

11:49.383 --> 11:51.143
When I was little, I got beaten a lot too.

11:51.543 --> 11:52.783
And I was terribly afraid of pain.

11:53.503 --> 11:55.503
After enough beatings, I eventually got used to it.

11:57.463 --> 11:59.103
This is my own special salve.

11:59.623 --> 12:00.663
It works wonders!

12:00.743 --> 12:02.183
It eases the pain right away.

12:07.143 --> 12:08.063
Don't worry.

12:08.543 --> 12:09.983
I've already made up my mind.

12:10.543 --> 12:12.863
I'll take you and Ying away from here.

12:13.383 --> 12:15.503
We'll travel the world together,

12:15.783 --> 12:16.863
free and unrestrained.

12:17.783 --> 12:19.223
Travel the world,

12:19.823 --> 12:20.983
free and unrestrained...

12:23.943 --> 12:24.743
All right.

12:25.543 --> 12:26.503
We'll go together!

12:36.023 --> 12:38.223
The Empress Dowager is here!

12:42.023 --> 12:43.223
My dear Ying,

12:44.023 --> 12:45.223
what are you doing?

12:49.543 --> 12:50.223
Move aside!

12:50.503 --> 12:52.063
You're blocking my sun.

12:54.543 --> 12:55.503
Ying,

12:56.863 --> 12:57.823
look at me.

12:58.743 --> 13:00.063
Mother's here to see you.

13:01.743 --> 13:02.583
Mother?

13:03.623 --> 13:05.463
Does "Mother" mean my mom?

13:05.663 --> 13:06.463
Yes.

13:10.623 --> 13:12.223
You look so fierce.

13:12.383 --> 13:13.863
I don't want you as my mother.

13:14.423 --> 13:17.143
I like the fun, pretty Empress.

13:17.343 --> 13:18.863
I want her to be my mother.

13:19.343 --> 13:20.743
My brother likes her too.

13:20.783 --> 13:22.383
She even promised to cure me.

13:22.903 --> 13:25.983
I'll get better soon.

13:26.503 --> 13:28.103
She wants to treat you?

13:28.303 --> 13:30.343
- Hongqing... - How could she cure anyone?

13:31.263 --> 13:32.903
She definitely doesn't mean well.

13:34.023 --> 13:35.943
You mustn't believe the Empress's lies.

13:41.143 --> 13:41.943
Ying,

13:43.023 --> 13:44.743
do me a favor, will you?

13:44.983 --> 13:46.383
Help me talk some sense into your brother.

13:46.383 --> 13:48.423
Tell him to take back his royal seal.

13:48.623 --> 13:49.423
All right?

13:51.623 --> 13:53.343
Are you listening to me?

13:55.023 --> 13:57.223
Help me persuade your brother to take back his seal.

13:57.743 --> 13:58.703
Do you understand?

14:02.663 --> 14:04.023
Do you or don't you?

14:05.263 --> 14:06.063
Ying,

14:06.143 --> 14:06.983
I'm talking to you!

14:07.023 --> 14:07.983
Do you understand?

14:08.023 --> 14:09.103
Listen to me!

14:18.143 --> 14:21.583
Xiao Huan, save me!

14:25.503 --> 14:26.303
Ying...

14:31.503 --> 14:32.223
Mother,

14:32.423 --> 14:34.143
what did you give Father to drink?

14:38.783 --> 14:40.983
What did you give Father to drink?

14:45.743 --> 14:46.663
What are you talking about?

14:55.103 --> 14:55.863
Ying?

15:20.663 --> 15:21.463
Your Majesty,

15:21.903 --> 15:22.743
time to take medicine.

15:35.103 --> 15:35.863
You...

15:46.223 --> 15:48.383
What did you give Father to drink?

15:51.903 --> 15:52.663
Tell me...

15:53.103 --> 15:53.863
Ying...

15:54.663 --> 15:56.063
has she remembered everything?

15:57.663 --> 15:59.223
We really can't let her remember.

15:59.383 --> 16:00.703
We can't let her remember!

16:16.903 --> 16:17.663
Li...

16:18.623 --> 16:19.623
Hong...

16:20.743 --> 16:21.503
Qing...

16:28.343 --> 16:29.623
Dear Hongqing...

16:31.623 --> 16:33.063
I remember you now.

17:19.863 --> 17:20.863
Heavens above,

17:20.983 --> 17:22.343
you're finally awake!

17:26.103 --> 17:27.063
Where am I?

17:29.783 --> 17:31.063
This is Lujiao Village.

17:31.343 --> 17:32.903
When we went up the mountain to chop wood,

17:33.303 --> 17:34.463
we saw you hanging from a tree.

17:34.703 --> 17:36.063
You were barely breathing.

17:36.463 --> 17:38.783
So the two of us carried you back.

17:38.823 --> 17:41.543
The village physician said you wouldn't make it.

17:41.583 --> 17:44.303
Didn't expect you to be this hard to kill!

17:45.463 --> 17:46.903
Was I unconscious?

17:47.903 --> 17:48.543
Yeah.

17:48.583 --> 17:49.463
How long was I out?

17:51.903 --> 17:52.783
About...

17:53.623 --> 17:55.063
a full fifteen days!

17:55.183 --> 17:56.423
That's right, fifteen days.

17:58.383 --> 17:59.183
Don't get up!

17:59.183 --> 18:00.223
Just rest...

18:00.783 --> 18:01.743
You just woke up.

18:02.103 --> 18:03.343
Your body's still too weak.

18:03.703 --> 18:04.583
What are you trying to do?

18:12.583 --> 18:14.423
Please take me to Fenglai Pavilion.

18:15.703 --> 18:16.863
For saving my life,

18:18.183 --> 18:19.383
I'll see that you're well rewarded.

19:08.343 --> 19:09.983
But Li Hongqing is dead.

19:10.343 --> 19:12.343
- Even if the flower blooms... -Don't say that again!

19:12.383 --> 19:14.343
there's no one left to protect you.

19:20.463 --> 19:21.423
That day...

19:23.143 --> 19:24.663
someone told me...

19:26.183 --> 19:28.023
Hongqing was dead.

19:31.303 --> 19:33.623
No one would take me to see the flowers.

19:42.343 --> 19:43.983
He gave me a box...

19:46.783 --> 19:48.063
Inside was some incense...

19:50.623 --> 19:51.623
Was it Gold Incense?

19:58.383 --> 20:00.023
That scent was so familiar...

20:07.983 --> 20:09.023
What did it smell like?

20:16.303 --> 20:17.063
Medicine...

20:20.383 --> 20:21.343
It was some medicinal incense...

20:41.903 --> 20:42.943
It was some medicinal incense...

20:43.383 --> 20:45.183
Today, when Father was struck by that arrow,

20:45.663 --> 20:46.983
he uttered some strange word.

20:59.503 --> 21:01.583
[Nanrong]

21:15.903 --> 21:17.063
Is it really you?

21:18.063 --> 21:18.823
Your Majesty.

21:20.543 --> 21:22.063
It's rare to see you so distracted.

21:22.183 --> 21:23.223
What are you thinking about?

21:28.143 --> 21:29.023
I was thinking

21:29.623 --> 21:31.743
that once all this is over,

21:31.863 --> 21:34.103
I want to leave the palace with you

21:34.303 --> 21:35.343
and roam the martial world again.

21:36.103 --> 21:36.863
Sounds good.

21:37.343 --> 21:38.583
Your Majesty's word is law.

21:39.143 --> 21:40.023
Why don't you

21:40.063 --> 21:41.263
put it in writing as a vow?

21:42.223 --> 21:43.023
All right.

21:43.823 --> 21:45.143
Then for my empress,

21:45.543 --> 21:46.703
I'll write a vow.

23:02.103 --> 23:03.943
But her roots in the palace run deep.

23:04.303 --> 23:06.343
If I move against her,

23:06.343 --> 23:07.303
she'll strike back like mad.

23:08.903 --> 23:10.343
Only by sending you away safely

23:10.983 --> 23:12.623

Your Majesty,

23:36.983 --> 23:37.703
Your Majesty the Empress,

23:38.223 --> 23:40.263
there's news from Physician Li.

23:40.943 --> 23:41.863
What news?

23:42.063 --> 23:43.303
The man at Fayun Temple

23:43.863 --> 23:45.063
is already improving.

23:45.103 --> 23:47.143
He should wake up very soon.

23:48.623 --> 23:49.423
Really?

23:52.223 --> 23:53.143
That's wonderful!

23:59.423 --> 24:00.983
Ling Xuefeng is about to wake up.

24:01.303 --> 24:02.743
You should be by his side.

24:04.623 --> 24:06.583
There's a thousand-year lingzhi kept in the palace.

24:06.663 --> 24:08.183
It can strengthen one's vital energy.

24:08.223 --> 24:10.663
It's extremely effective for patients who have just woken up.

24:10.863 --> 24:13.303
Have Wufu bring it when you go.

24:14.303 --> 24:15.143
Thank you, Your Majesty.

24:15.223 --> 24:16.103
Then I'll go at once.

24:17.343 --> 24:18.143
Cangcang...

24:21.263 --> 24:22.383
Of course I will.

24:22.783 --> 24:24.343
Once we find the one behind it all,

24:24.543 --> 24:25.783
you'd better keep your promise.

24:26.343 --> 24:27.143
All right.

24:27.783 --> 24:29.183
Then we'll leave the palace together,

24:29.783 --> 24:31.143
wandering around

24:31.343 --> 24:32.423
and roaming the martial world again.

25:06.983 --> 25:08.423
Where did you get

25:09.023 --> 25:10.463
this Golden Snake hairpin?

25:11.063 --> 25:12.663
It's something my mother left me.

25:15.343 --> 25:16.703
She said if I was ever in danger,

25:17.263 --> 25:19.503
I could use this hairpin to seek help from the Lingbi Sect.

25:20.023 --> 25:21.943
The mighty Imperial Preceptor of Great Qi

25:22.263 --> 25:24.023
would turn to the Lingbi Sect?

25:25.183 --> 25:26.303
It seems

25:26.783 --> 25:28.703
your ambition is no small thing.

25:53.223 --> 25:55.663
We rely on the support of all you stewards,

25:56.183 --> 25:59.143
so this is no more than you deserve.

26:08.183 --> 26:08.823
Ms. Yan,

26:09.623 --> 26:11.103
I'm old and plagued by illness.

26:11.103 --> 26:13.303
I only wish to go home soon.

26:13.463 --> 26:14.543
Such generous gifts,

26:14.863 --> 26:16.023
I'm really not worthy of them.

26:17.583 --> 26:18.463
Oh?

26:19.423 --> 26:20.943
Compared with all the bribes

26:21.023 --> 26:23.783
you've taken over the years,

26:24.423 --> 26:26.383
these hardly count as anything.

26:27.543 --> 26:28.503
Madam,

26:28.823 --> 26:29.623
Ms. Yan,

26:29.783 --> 26:30.863
I've been framed!

26:31.103 --> 26:32.223
I've been framed...

26:34.543 --> 26:37.583
Your crimes are written out clearly right there.

26:49.783 --> 26:52.543
Did you really think your little schemes

26:52.783 --> 26:55.703
could ever fool the Madam?

26:57.263 --> 26:58.023
Guards!

26:58.863 --> 27:00.063
Spare me, Madam!

27:00.503 --> 27:01.663
Spare me, Madam!

27:02.583 --> 27:03.543
Du Tingxin,

27:03.743 --> 27:06.023
how dare you deal with palace staff without permission?

27:06.503 --> 27:07.623
Du Tingxin!

27:08.103 --> 27:09.263
Du Tingxin!

27:14.703 --> 27:16.183
Anyone else here

27:16.983 --> 27:18.463
have something to say?

27:19.543 --> 27:20.863
From now on,

27:21.063 --> 27:23.583
we will follow only you, Madam!

27:23.583 --> 27:25.063
With absolute loyalty!

27:25.783 --> 27:28.023
- With absolute loyalty! - With absolute loyalty!

27:32.263 --> 27:33.503
Eunuch Li...

27:39.623 --> 27:41.743
You've served in the palace a long time.

27:42.503 --> 27:44.023
Hearing that from you

27:44.103 --> 27:45.263
puts my mind at ease.

27:47.263 --> 27:50.663
We've been short-handed all over the palace lately.

27:51.023 --> 27:54.063
I've already chosen new people to fill the gaps.

27:55.703 --> 27:57.343
Appoint them one by one

27:57.983 --> 27:59.383
according to what's written there.

27:59.863 --> 28:00.663
Understood.

28:16.343 --> 28:18.063
Before long,

28:18.343 --> 28:19.423
Madam,

28:19.463 --> 28:22.223
you'll have both the harem and the court

28:22.263 --> 28:23.543
in the palm of your hand.

28:34.223 --> 28:35.263
Ying, remember:

28:36.183 --> 28:37.743
After you and your brother leave the palace,

28:38.223 --> 28:40.343
give this jade pendant to him.

28:41.023 --> 28:42.383
My brother's taking me out of the palace?

28:43.863 --> 28:44.663
That's right.

28:45.423 --> 28:47.943
I hope you can both stay safe.

28:48.703 --> 28:49.663
Leaving this place

28:50.263 --> 28:52.023
may be the best choice for you.

28:54.063 --> 28:55.103
I just hope

28:55.623 --> 28:57.063
all of this is just my suspicions.

28:58.183 --> 28:59.143
Suspicions?

29:01.063 --> 29:02.223
Suspicions about what?

29:03.943 --> 29:04.903
Whether someone

29:05.423 --> 29:07.503
who grew up with me

29:07.823 --> 29:09.023
is really the culprit.

29:11.543 --> 29:12.703
The culprit behind that medicinal incense?

29:16.543 --> 29:17.343
All right.

29:18.103 --> 29:19.343
Put this jade pendant away.

29:19.703 --> 29:22.023
Your brother isn't easy to handle.

29:23.023 --> 29:24.343
If I gave it to him myself,

29:24.703 --> 29:26.423
he'd pester me with a hundred questions.

29:26.703 --> 29:27.983
So I'm giving it to you instead.

29:28.423 --> 29:30.103
If you ever run into any danger,

29:30.303 --> 29:32.143
go to Fenglai Pavilion for money

29:32.183 --> 29:32.903
or for people,

29:33.303 --> 29:34.383
as much as you like.

29:41.023 --> 29:41.783
Ying,

29:42.703 --> 29:43.743
everything that's happened

29:44.063 --> 29:45.223
is already in the past.

29:46.223 --> 29:47.383
I hope you and your brother

29:48.223 --> 29:49.223
can both find happiness.

29:59.743 --> 30:00.823
I'm sorry...

30:06.943 --> 30:08.503
I don't know why,

30:08.823 --> 30:11.263
but I suddenly wanted to say that to you.

30:15.023 --> 30:15.823
Ying,

30:16.783 --> 30:18.063
with your brother,

30:18.703 --> 30:20.663
hurry and leave this cold, lifeless place.

30:21.743 --> 30:24.823
I hope you will both be happy

30:25.103 --> 30:25.903
and carefree.

30:26.783 --> 30:27.623
And you?

30:28.063 --> 30:29.663
Won't you cure me?

30:31.063 --> 30:32.343
It hurts you too much.

30:32.943 --> 30:33.943
Let's stop.

30:47.783 --> 30:49.423
Then what about Hongqing?

30:52.223 --> 30:54.143
I'm so close to remembering him.

31:00.543 --> 31:01.663
I want the treatment...

31:01.983 --> 31:03.023
I want the treatment...

31:03.783 --> 31:05.463
I want to see Hongqing clearly!

31:05.623 --> 31:06.543
I want the treatment...

31:07.823 --> 31:08.823
I want the treatment!

31:09.703 --> 31:10.743
Treat me now!

31:20.343 --> 31:21.543
If you won't treat me,

31:21.943 --> 31:23.023
I'll treat myself!

31:35.063 --> 31:35.783
Xiao Ying,

31:36.023 --> 31:37.063
calm down!

31:37.343 --> 31:39.023
I want to see Hongqing clearly...

31:39.343 --> 31:41.103
I want to see Hongqing clearly!

31:41.423 --> 31:44.183
I want the treatment...

31:44.503 --> 31:46.183
I want to see Hongqing clearly...

31:46.263 --> 31:47.023
All right!

31:48.703 --> 31:49.663
I'll treat you.

32:22.703 --> 32:23.463
Stop!

32:24.023 --> 32:24.783
Your Majesty,

32:25.223 --> 32:26.503
how can you be so cruel?

32:27.543 --> 32:28.943
Please spare our Ying.

32:28.983 --> 32:30.103
Are you trying to kill her?

32:31.463 --> 32:32.743
What are you talking about?

32:32.943 --> 32:34.343
I saw it with my own eyes.

32:35.343 --> 32:37.103
Stop torturing Ying.

32:38.343 --> 32:39.103
Your Majesty,

32:39.343 --> 32:40.543
I beg you.

32:41.743 --> 32:43.023
Please let Ying go.

32:43.263 --> 32:44.623
Take it out on me.

32:44.623 --> 32:46.703
Just stop tormenting her, please!

32:51.743 --> 32:52.543
Ying,

32:53.103 --> 32:54.343
we won't treat you anymore.

32:54.463 --> 32:55.983
You won't suffer like this anymore.

32:56.023 --> 32:56.743
Come on.

32:56.743 --> 32:58.063
Let me help you over.

32:58.823 --> 33:00.103
Let's go rest.

33:20.023 --> 33:20.783
Ying?

33:22.463 --> 33:23.223
Ying?

33:23.303 --> 33:24.063
Mother...

33:24.463 --> 33:25.383
it hurts so much...

33:26.303 --> 33:27.143
What's wrong?

33:27.543 --> 33:28.063
Ying?

33:28.183 --> 33:29.023
It hurts...

33:30.823 --> 33:31.583
Ying,
