Special EP4: Fearing loss, the king kissed FuLing in confession | Novoland: The Castle in the Sky
What are you doing? Are you crazy? Have you gone crazy? [Xue Zhong: Xue Family’s Household Servant] Princess?! Greetings, Princess! -Greetings, Princess!-Greetings, Princess! You never saw the Princess here, understand? Princess, His Highness… To His Highness, even the most loyal of people, once they’re dead, they become useless. I got it. Don’t worry, Princess. Your Majesty. -Please restrain your grief.
-Thank you for bringing him back here. Your Majesty, Ruo Fei’s body was sent
by Princess Fei Shuang. It was probably because
Princess went against you
a few days ago, she felt bad about it. You knew it very clearly. No matter what, we still got to see Ruofei one last time. Princess Fei Shuang
still treats Your Majesty quite well. I don’t want to hear about that today. What is actually going on? Your Majesty, this is Doctor Qiu Ting,
a retainer of our Yu family,. [Doctor of Yu Family: Qiu Ting]
Doctor Qiu’s character and medical knowledge
are worthy of credibility. He’s already examined Ruo Fei’s body. Doctor Qiu, have you found anything? Your Majesty.
It appears that Master Du was fatally wounded
by the arrow. But actually,
what killed him is the poison on the arrowhead.
It’s called Ta Xue Xun Mei Poison*.
(* Lit.: Walking on Snow to View the Flower Plum.) That’s why after death,
he bled from the seven orifices in his head. Ta Xue Xun Mei Poison?
What kind of poison is this? ThisTa Xue Xun Mei Poison
does not refer to walking on real snow. Plum refers to fresh blood*.
As soon as the victim bleeds,
(* Lit.: Homonyms of “xue” meaning “snow”
and “blood”) the poison immediately seeps deep into the body
and the internal organs, and becomes incurable. Such a powerful poison actually exists?
How come I’ve never heard of it? The poison is so fatal that the poisoner
could even accidentally lose his life. That’s why ten years ago,
the former emperor ordered it to be banished. Since the poison has resurfaced, the only possible reason is… What? -Well…-No matter what happens, you’re under the protection
of the King of the Winged. Your Majesty,
the ones who researched and created the poison
were the Xue Family. Xue Lin… Your Majesty!
I didn’t say anything, Your Majesty! Your Majesty!
I’ll go right now and seize this usurper! I’ll avenge Ruofei’s death! Stop! If you go straight for Xue Lin,
do you think he’d confess? We must avenge Ruo Fei’s death. But to go against an extreme person,
we need to use an extreme plan. Imperial Guard Bei,
we haven’t seen His Highness lately. I wonder what His Highness could be busy with. His Highness is in such a good mood,
so he’s been hunting. Hunting? He says he’s hunting for a hawk. Master Xue, His Majesty doesn’t feel well today, and requires that you come to Qiyang Palace
to attend to him. Attend to him? Is Master Xue not willing to go? Feng Tian Yi, what tricks are you up to? Looking at Your Majesty, you don’t seem to be sick. How come you’re not kneeling
in front of His Majesty? After numerous campaigns,
my legs now have disabilities. I can’t kneel. Xue Lin, is there any manners
of king and subordinate in your mind? Calm down, Your Majesty.
This time I’m here to attend to Your Majesty. Do you know what disease I’m suffering from? If I’m not mistaken,
the attempted assassination
against Your Majesty on the way back
to South Yudu City along with the recent death of Du Ruofei
is probably the heart ailment of Your Majesty. You’re wrong.
You, thorny traitor against a monarch,
are my heart ailment! Guards! Brat,
I have been in battlefields for half of my life. There isn’t anything that I haven’t experienced. This situation right now
might not be taken seriously by me. Minister Xue,
your position is high and your power is great.
You killed Du Ruofei. The usual means wouldn’t
be useful to deal with you. I thought about it over and over
and realized that only today,
here at my Qiyang Palace, can my words be final. A dead person can never talk. And by then, whatever crime I accuse you of will surely be your crime. But Your Majesty, don’t you forget that I am an important subject of South Yudu City. A lot of people saw me enter Qiyang Palace,
standing upright. But then, they see me leaving lying down. May I ask Your Majesty what’s your plan
to shut the mouth of these people? By that time, everyone in the court
will feel that they are also in danger. Then the Regent
will be able to replace Your Majesty so easily. So I’ll just stand here today
and wait for all of you to kill me! You! You’re being very arrogant today. Even if I can’t kill you now, do you think you will have a good ending
in the future? I’m here today to tell you that Du Ruofei was indeed killed by me. If he hadn’t interfered,
the one who would have died would have been you! Even though I admit to all of this,
what can you do to me? It’s just you… against me! Wait! Minister Xue…
I’ve waited for these words of yours
for so long already. Greetings, Your Majesty. You four are the most respected people here
in South Yudu City. Earlier, Minister Xue personally admitted
that he tried to assassinate me
and killed Du Ruofei. Did you all hear it clearly? -We all heard it very clearly.
-We all heard it very clearly. Good. Imprison Minister Xue now
and inform Regent about the execution order. -Yes!-Yes! Feng Tian Yi, you dare to frame me?! Minister Xue, you’ must be kidding.
You’ve been on a battle horse for half of your life.
What kind of situation haven’t you seen
in your life? How can I be able to frame you
with such a little trick? Drag him out! Customer, we’re already closed. Give me one more pot. Pay first for the wine you drank. When did I, the Crown Prince of Shuang City,
ever owe anyone money? Boss! He claims
he’s the Crown Prince of Shuang City. Shuang City has no more Crown Prince already. Bai Ting Jun has already been driven
out of the city by Her Majesty, the Queen. Boss, could it be really him? There can’t be that much coincidence, right? Hey, do you have money or not? Ling’er… -Ling’er… -Men! Catch him! -Don’t go. I’m going to go find Ling’er. Beat him! Yes! Beat him! Beat him to death! Stop! Stop! Get away! Young Master… Get up. What are you guys doing? He ate, drank, but didn’t pay money.
He was trying to escape! Here’s the payment then! Let’s go. “The candle goes out and the shadow rises.
Tears blend with cinnabar. The flower flies to the soil. A line in the sky.” What does that mean? Only by understanding these phrases can I protect Ling’er. But I’ve been thinking about it hard
for so many days
and I can’t make any headway. The candle goes out and the shadow rises… How can there be shadows
when the light has already been extinguished? Your Majesty’s plan is exquisite. Xue Lin definitely can’t escape. Aside from my royal seal,
there must still be Feng Ren’s
Vermilion Signature of Approval. As long as the Vermilion Signature of Approval
is not yet given, I cannot relax at all. Greetings, Your Majesty. Is it Royal Uncle telling you
to send the execution order? His Royal Highness said
that an execution is too unpleasant. Please have a look at this letter. Yan Jing, in the 15th year of Tianyuan,
accepted bribes and for it,
judged a case for personal gains. Cui Yan Wen, in the third year of Tianyuan,
corrupted disaster funds and took bribes. Liao Ying Cheng, in the eighth year of Tianyuan– Enough! What does Royal Uncle want? His Highness said that Your Majesty
relies a lot on these four people. They are indeed important subjects
of our government. But when people are in such high positions,
how can they have no lusts and wants? It is true that these men committed these crimes.
If Your Majesty doesn’t believe it, you can personally send someone
to investigate them. -What has that got to do with the execution order?
-Tong Mu, shut your mouth. If the crimes of these four ministers
are made public, they would be immediately imprisoned. In this world, who would believe
the testimony of a prisoner? But His Highness is considering the fact
that they have made numerous contributions
to South Yudu City, so it’s up to Your Majesty
if you also feel pity for them. Royal Uncle uses benevolence and morality
to govern the world. Do you think that I only know
how to degrade my subjects? Imperial Guard Pei, please go to Royal Uncle
and retrieve the Death Order. Yes. I’m thanking Your Majesty for your grace
on behalf of the four ministers. All the food is Tian Yi’s favorites. Why hasn’t he come yet? When is the Winged clan’s
imperial carriage coming? Your maid went to ask many times yesterday, but I didn’t even see His Majesty’s face. No way. It took me a lot of effort
to find Du Ruo Fei’s body for him, how come he’s not even going to thank me? He said it already. Didn’t Xiang Congling
already inform you that His Majesty… I want him to come personally. Have you asked the Minister of Affairs?
What has the King of the Winged been up to lately? I think he’s always been with the new arrival,
Miss Yi. Yi Fu Ling again. Get out. Yes, Princess. You’re quite daring!
If I hadn’t interrogated Xue Zhong today, I wouldn’t have known
that we were keeping a backstabber
in our household! The person saying that should be me! Brother, you’re quite daring.
You dared to try to murder the King of the Winged! You still want to say…! If Prince Regent hadn’t helped out today, you would have been receiving my dead body! I just wanted to send off Feng Tian Yi’s comrade, I hadn’t expected that I’d harm you.
Brother, I’m sorry. You’re sorry? Is a simple apology enough? Is your family name still Xue? It’s because my family name is Xue,
that I didn’t want you
to take the Xue family too far, to a point
from which we won’t be able to turn back anymore.
Who in South Yudu City now doesn’t know that once Brother had Prince Regent’s support,
you stopped having any respect
for the King of the Winged! It was Feng and Xue families together
who’d taken over the land. Why then must South Yudu City
end up in the hands of the Feng? Besides, you shouldn’t interfere
with matters between men. Don’t think I don’t know what you’re thinking. Let me tell you, I won’t let you marry him. Your family name is Xue, my family name is also Xue. Just like how Feng Tian Yi’s family name is Feng,
and Feng Ren’s family name is also Feng. Everyone knows that Feng Ren is cruel.
Do you think that once he gets the power, he will give our Xue family half of it? Brother, you need to think clearly about this. What can the Xue family
really rely on in the future? After everything that has been said, you’re still doing things for that Feng Tian Yi. So what if I am? Just like what you said,
the Xue’s are one of the Winged clan’s
most important officials. Just beneath one person,
but above tens of thousands of people. My identity as Xue Fei Shuang is much revered. Dare I ask, in this world,
except the King of the Winged, who else can match with me? Fei Shuang,
don’t blame your brother for not warning you. If Feng Tian Yi, that brat, had you in his heart, why would he keep pressuring our Xue family? When there’s already no skin,
what will the fur attach itself to*?
(* Lit.: If an object loses its basis for living,
it can’t survive) You should know that with the Xue family,
you’re the revered Princess, without them, you’re less than nothing. Who let you in here? How come it’s you? Yu Tong Mu said you were in a bad mood. I’m just here to check up on you. The matter with Ruofei… Let’s think of other plans. What other plans can we think about?
I don’t want to see you right now, go outside. -Tian Yi! -Go outside. Tian Yi… Stupid girl, stay with me. Tian Yi, I’m here. The Seven-star Lantern is a relic
of Stars Pavillion. If you can pass through the Seven-star Lantern,
you can take a peek at all the mysteries
of the universe. If, once the lights are out,
you still have a shadow, everywhere under the sun, there’s probably only you. Your Highness? What are you doing? I… How come you’re here? When you said you were going to the tavern,
I felt something strange. Then I saw you changing into nightwear. I thought it was even weirder. Why did you come to the Seven-star Temple? “The candle goes out and the shadow rises. ” The lights are right in front
of your eyes right now. It’s now up to what you decide. What are you talking about? Are you crazy? The Seven-star Lantern is a symbol
of the Lanzhou earth’s peace and well-being. How could you do that? I knew you wouldn’t bear to do it,
that’s why I did it by myself. If God really wants to punish someone, then let him punish me. You’re really foolish! Who said
that the light from which shadows will rise
represents the Seven-star Lantern? How could you know if you don’t try it out? Besides, currently,
Lanzhou earth’s well-being has already
been shattered, then why don’t I shatter it completely,
and get to know the truth! You can’t! You can’t do this! Your Highness! You audacious maniac!
How dare you break the Seven-star Lantern! Master! Ting Jun, how come it’s you? I… So you’re conspiring with her? I’ll deal with you later! -Let me explain! -Get out of my way! Your Highness, hurry up and shatter the lights! Your Highness, make up your mind
before it’s too late! Bai Ting Jun! Your Highness, think of Miss Yi! Your Highness! Don’t continue to do wrong! Your Highness! You sinner! Your Highness! Seven-star Lantern? This… I think there’re people in the forest,
let’s go take a look! Yes, sir! Your Highness, are you alright? Your Highness! Your Highness? Your Highness! Your Highness! I dragged you into this, I’m sorry. That flower… must be a clue. Your Highness! Your Highness! Why? Ling’er, I will definitely protect you. Ling’er, don’t go. Tian Ya Zi! Tian Ya Zi! I have something to ask you. You’ve seen enough? You’re really stingy. Every time you come to me for help,
you only let me have a glimpse. I’m afraid you won’t live after the second glimpse. [Tian Ya Zi – Heir to Top Secret Sect]
Say it. Why are you looking for me? “The candle goes out and the shadow rises.
Tears blend with cinnabar. The flower flies to the soil. A line in the sky.” Am I the key to these four phrases? Why do you ask me about this? The shadow that rose
after the Seven-stars Lantern went out is the flower on my back. Flora of Shooting Stars Flower
has awakened prematurely. Now the red spider lily on your back
has already bloomed. This means that the Yin Amulet has already found
its owner. The next would be the Yang Amulet. The Yang Amulet? Could it be Flora of Shooting Stars’s lover? Have I not made it clear enough? [So he is Flora of Shooting Stars’s lover.] [That’s why the Queen worked hard fighting for her.] I understand. I need to follow
the instruction of those sixteen words in order to find the Yang Amulet? “The candle goes out and the shadow rises”
has already come true. “A line in the sky” can be understood
as a chance to survive. “Tears blend with cinnabar.” What does it mean? I know what it means. I was born in Tiannu Village. Because of the flower on my back,
I was treated like I was a demon. That year, I was driven into prostitution. It doesn’t matter if you killed him or not.
Anyway, you will die today. Why don’t you let us have some fun with you? Stop! So many people bullying a woman? Don’t let me see you again! What’s wrong? I think there’s cinnabar in my eye. Just cry and shed tears. Once you cry, the cinnabar
will naturally dissolve. The same goes for other situations.
As you cry, it’ll pass. “The candle goes out and the shadow rises.
Tears blend with cinnabar.” Since the first two phrases point to me, “the flower flies to the soil”
is also talking about me? Don’t be so pessimistic. “A line in the sky.”
Perhaps you still have a chance to survive. You don’t understand. “A line in the sky” means a cliff near Tiannu Village. His Highness saved me there. Without him, how could I become the Bi An Hua today? No matter what,
the Flora Amulet has nothing to do with you. Forget about those sixteen words. But this has a lot to do with His Highness! If I’m right, Yi Fu Ling is Flora of Shooting Stars. He said that only by understanding
those sixteen words could he protect Yi Fu Ling. So, he is the lover of Flora of Shooting Stars! You plan to sacrifice yourself for him? No. Why? Why does it have to be me? You think it’s unfair? You sincerely love him, but he is just treating you as a tool
to pursue someone else. It’s not like that. -It’s not like that!
-You still think it’s unfair? But there’s no fairness in the world.
Also from Top Secret Sect, my senior Tian Ji Zhi is the prime minister
in Shuang City and revered by the people. But me? Just hiding in the mountains every day. Why? Let me tell you. As long as you don’t want it, no one can force you. Your Majesty, the Gloomy Sky Burial isn’t always enjoyed by even the senior royals. Du Ruo Fei died young
and hadn’t yet accomplished anything. Why can he enjoy such a ceremony? Du Ruo Fei courageously protected the King. He died in place of me in the hands of criminals.
That’s the greatest achievement. Unless you think
that even if I die, it wouldn’t matter? South Yudu City
can finally have a change of leadership! But Your Majesty, don’t forget. -You are not yet 20 years old.
-How dare you! I cannot fly yet. But Du Ruo Fei’s burial
will be carried out by the eight noble families. Rules are made by men. What I say will be the rule. But Minister Xue has been feeling unwell lately,
so you don’t need to attend! Court adjourned! See Your Majesty off. Your Majesty. -How was it?
-No problem. The eight noble families all agreed
to carry out Ruo Fei’s burial tomorrow. Being able to serve the King of the Winged clan
is a rare honor to them. -How about the Prince Regent?
-We got the Vermilion Signature of Approval. He had no objection in this matter.
I think that since he saved Xue Lin, he won’t hinder Ruo Fei’s burial. If we can fly, we should be sending Ruo Fei off in his burial. With the eight noble families
giving Ruo Fei the Gloomy Sky Burial, it’s already Ruo Fei’s honor.
Your Majesty shouldn’t blame yourself anymore. Moreover, your 20-year-old birthday
will come soon. At that time, you can fly
at the Spreading Wings Ceremony. Feng Ren must return the governing power to you. From then on, there will be
no Prince Regent standing in your way. Princess Fei Shuang is here! It’s you? Why are you here? Maybe I should apologize for hiding my identity last time? No need. Look. Everyone in the Palace says that the conflict
between Feng Tian Yi and Shuang City is because of me. And you happen to like Feng Tian Yi. Having ill-feeling about me is just normal. Do you mean that you are seeing me as an enemy? No. You’ve misunderstood me. Feng Tian Yi got injured
for trying to save my father. I stayed here to thank him. -And also…
-What else? Because of Prince Regent and your Xue family.
I feel that Feng Tian Yi as the King
of the Winged clan is not happy. Then what does that have to do with you? Unless you really think that with your looks, you can turn the Winged clan’s court upside down? I don’t mean that. Tian Yi and I grew up together. Although I’m half a year older than him,
he always takes care of me. That year on my birthday… Forget it. Why am I telling you these things? I don’t care what my brother thinks. My wish since I was little
has been to marry Feng Tian Yi. He’s the King of the Winged clan
and I’m the predestined Queen. If he’s a commoner,
I’ll follow him and wander the world. Have you told Minister Xue about this? You really know something about the Winged clan. Then let me tell you. Tian Yi doesn’t have to be
worried about our Xue family but his Royal Uncle. You’ve also seen how Feng Ren does things. Once Tian Yi reaches the age of 20,
Feng Ren must return to him the governing power. But who is willing to give up his power? If his position as Prince Regent
becomes meaningless, you guess, what will he do? He? And Tian Yi’s taking a girl away from Shuang City will become Feng Ren’s weapon to attack him. So, no matter if you sincerely like Tian Yi or just feel grateful to him, you should understand what to do. I’ll leave upon daybreak. Since you keep saying that you don’t like Tian Yi, it should be easy for you to leave. You won’t say that I forced you, right? But if I leave, he will suspect you. You shouldn’t have come here tonight. So what? You really think that Tian Yi likes you? Forget it. Women
who show their affection for him like you, I’ve seen so many.
But there’s only one Xue Fei Shuang. Only I can use the power
of the Xue family to support Tian Yi. Only I know him best. I’ll tell you whatever I think. I am Xue Fei Shuang. The thing
that makes me different from girls like you is that no matter
if I like the people before me or not, I don’t need to pretend. How come you didn’t sleep the whole night? And these clothes… I’m going back to Shuang City.
Where is the King of the Winged clan? Can you help me inform him?
I want to say goodbye to him. Today is the Gloomy Sky Burial of Mr. Du. His Majesty is not in the Palace. Fine. Anyway, I will be leaving. Not telling him is no big deal. Then I’ll go now. Take care of yourself. What’s going on? Your Majesty, Tong Mu has gone back to the city
to fetch the eight noble families and the other ministers.
Maybe he got delayed on the way. -What are you doing?
-You don’t know it? Today, Prince Regent is holding a banquet
in Xuanqin Hall for all the ministers. The setting is greater than the National Day. No. But isn’t today Du Ruo Fei’s Gloomy Sky Burial? I didn’t say anything and you didn’t see me. Minister Lian, Minister Cui, you’ve forgotten
how His Majesty saved you from Prince Regent? I’ve worked hard for South Yudu City all my life. I really don’t want a poor end when I’m old. You two must not leave. Tong Mu. -Miss Yi.
-Ministers, let’s go now. -Right. Let’s go.
-Stop! Pei Yu, don’t go too far. Oh, it’s Mr. Yu and Miss Yi. You guys are making things difficult
for His Majesty. These words of yours… How do I dare
to make things hard for His Majesty? His Majesty wanted to exceptionally give
Du Ruo Fei the Gloomy Sky Burial. Prince Regent has already agreed with it. These ministers, they all willingly
attend the banquet. Prince Regent didn’t force them nor bind them. It’s not up to me where they want to go. Ministers. -What do you say?
-Yes. Let’s go. Since the two of you don’t want to drink wine, I won’t force you anymore.
But if you make a ruckus again, don’t blame me for doing my job. What is making Your Majesty so annoyed? Why did you come here? You’re not welcome here. Mr. Xiang, you are not right. Mr. Du is a pillar of the country. As one of the important ministers,
I should send him off. Oh, I know why Mr. Xiang is not happy. You fear that your future burial will also be so cold and quiet? Your Majesty, I was in a hurry
and forgot to change clothes. I think you won’t mind, right? You really think I dare not kill you? Get lost! If you don’t want to see me, I’ll just leave then. Oh, right. Your Majesty. I want to remind you that the Gloomy Sky Burial requires someone who has reached 20 and can fly. All the people here seem to be unqualified. Who says that only those who can fly
can carry out the Gloomy Sky Burial? What are you doing here? You’re an outsider. Hurry and leave. If you ask me, those eight noble families
are the real outsiders. They hardly had any interactions
with Ruo Fei at all. What right do they have to send Ruo Fei off? Since they are just nobodies,
it’s fine that they don’t come. It’s fine with us here. Tong Mu, put Ruo Fei’s ashes on to the kite. What are you doing? You aren’t the only ones who have a dream of flying, The Human clan also has that too.
That’s why every spring, we’ll arrange a group of friends, and go to the outskirts of Shuang City
to fly kites. If we write our wishes on the kites,
when the kites fly to the sky, our wishes will come true.
What we long for could also be heard. Ruo Fei! Life will fade, but the sky is an eternal dream.
I wish you a safe journey. Stupid girl, thank you. If I remember correctly,
this is the first time you thank me. But it’s probably going to be the last time. Why? I’m going back to Shuang City. I came here today to say goodbye to you. My father has just died.
I can’t stay in South Yudu City forever. But Bai Xue will continue to try to capture you. I know. That’s why I want to clear it up. Why Bai Xue wants me to be Brother Ting Jun’s wife? Also, why did Brother Ting Jun kill my father? Come with me. Let me take you somewhere. The former King died when I was thirteen. Based on the royal family customs,
after we conducted the Gloomy Sky Burial, we buried him in this mausoleum. But in my heart, my father died
when I was ten years old. Why is that? I once cared for a hawk. I gave it the name, Breeze.
That’s how Breeze Garden got its name. That year, King Father took it away. Day and night, he made it suffer,
without feeding it, without letting it sleep. I didn’t understand why he did that. I begged him to let it go, but he ignored me. Not long after that, Breeze died. -But, isn’t that a method of training hawks?
-I know. But I was just a child then. I threw a tantrum. But he said
people would only remember successes and forget failures.
I couldn’t blame others for its death. From then on, I hated him. He also hated me. Everyone said that he didn’t like
his good-for-nothing son. He wanted to pass the throne to Feng Reng. Before his death, the last person
he summoned wasn’t me, but Feng Reng. Up until now, I’ve been suspicious that King Father’s death
had something to do with Feng Reng. But didn’t he still appoint you as his heir? Up until the last moment
before the reading of his will, I thought that the throne would go to Feng Reng. I didn’t think that he’d become Prince Regent. But Prince Regent doesn’t want to stop
at being Prince Regent, right? People will only remember successes, and won’t remember failures. I now kind of understand what King Father meant. He used Feng Reng to pressure me,
so that he could make me suffer like a hawk. If I die halfway, I could only blame myself, and couldn’t blame others, right? One day you will definitely take back everything that should belong
to the King of the Winged clan. Will you accompany me until that day? -Will you stay with me until that day comes?
-Huh? Me? You must be wondering why I’m telling you this. I didn’t expect this either. I once thought I would never tell anyone about it. Neither did I. Can’t believe I would actually
become friends with Feng Tian Yi. Only friends? Since you’re already here, how about coming with me
to pay respect to my King Father. Your Majesty, Prince Regent has replaced
all the servants in the Qiyang Palace! All of you, get out! Get out! Hurry up! Tian Yi. Tian Yi?… What’s wrong, Tian Yi? Say something, I’m worried! The Order of the Golden Feather King Father left me
can command the imperial guards. Even Feng Ren didn’t know of its existence before. This was the last resort I had against him. But he knows now. Look, he has changed all the servants. He clearly has other things in mind. We need to think of a plan to snatch back
the Order of the Golden Feather! Snatch? How? Since he’s already done it, it must be clean without a single trace. Then what do we do? Go back first. -I’m not going back.
-Didn’t you say you were leaving? I…I want to stay by your side. You’d better go back first. You are…? You broke your promise. It’s you. But I didn’t agree to anything. Besides, I don’t even know who you are. I’m Nan Feng. I am a musician here in the palace. Prince Regent loves music. Even Prince Regent himself shows me respect. I’ve especially brought
my zither here to play for you. Since you don’t appreciate it, then forget it. Wait! I were a little disrespectful just now
and offended you. That’s because I’m very upset today. If you don’t mind, would you please play for me? How was it? At first, it was like the sun brightly shining up above. In the wind, there were bells lightly ringing. Right, it was a wind chime. But afterwards, it rained. Like blades cutting through the sky
and startling the wind chime. The mixing of the mournful sound of the blades
and the sound of the windchime is like hatred and admiration,
sobbing and complaining. Just like… Like what? Just like someone sitting under a windchime waiting for the woman he loves. But… that woman… can never come back. I indeed wasn’t wrong about you. What is this song called? Yin Meng*.
(*Lit: Bed of Dreams) Everything starts from a dream and is ended by a dream. But so what if you dream? Probably you can only destroy it yourself. I feel that this song is not good. Why is it so? Too much strength invites insult. Too much intelligence leads to self-harm. Too much attachment makes a relationship end soon. Although, this tune started soft, toward the end, it had this force like it’s going to break the hardest thing on earth. It’s too much. What’s bad about being too much? That’s for sure. Anything that goes too far
usually doesn’t last long. If you don’t believe me, try playing one more note. Thank you for your comment. With such good appreciation of music, you must also be good at playing the zither. I’ve only improved it recently. You and I seem to have a lot in common. Shall I do you a favor? A few days from now is the Prince Regent’s birthday. This song, “Yin Meng”, is his favorite. If you can learn this song well to play it for him and he likes it, he will agree to any request you make. Really? Any request, seriously?! Even if you ask for his head, maybe that wouldn’t be a problem. I’ll leave this zither to you. See you. Princess, look. What’s that? It looks like… it looks like a kite. Last time, when Miss Yi used this method when she sent off Du Ruo Fei Yi Fu Ling? She’s still here? Get that thing down now. Yes, Princess. Princess, I’ve taken down the kite. (Memorial Kite for the hawk, Qing Feng) (Xue Fei Shuang’s maid, Xue Qing) (Xue Fei Shuang’s maid, Xue Qing)
Qing Feng? It’s Qing Feng. He even told her about Qing Feng already. Did you regret on your words? I’m sorry. But… I really can’t leave yet. Why? Because…Prince Regent’s birthday
will be in a few days. I promised to play zither for him. And also, I also promised Tian Yi. Wait! What did you call him? Tian Yi?! -We are only friends.
-Nonsense! Can you listen to me first? The thing is… -I want to help him get an item back.
-I don’t want to listen to your explanation! You! Princess, Yi Fu Ling is so annoying. We must think of a way to teach her a lesson. I’m the distinguished lady of the Xue family
in South Yudu City. Why would I mind her? If anyone finds out, I’ll become a joke. That’s true. But Princess, even if you don’t mind her, you can’t allow this wild girl to step over your head. Stop beating around the bush.
What do you really want to say? Princess, you’re generous and kind. But I, your maid, can’t bear to allow this anymore. I do have an idea. Since when do you have a say in my matters? My bad, Princess. Princess, I will definitely avenge you. Your Highness, you’re like the bright moon in the sky shining on my petty life. But a bright moon should be accompanied by stars. A nobody will remain a nobody. Maybe you’ve forgotten
the “tears melting the cinnabar” already. But I hope that in the future, you will remember the “Flying flowers return to
where the earth and the sky connects.” Miss Yi, you’re so beautiful today! When His Majesty sees you, maybe he’ll be so happy
that he makes you his queen. What’s good about being the queen? Rather than that,
it’s better to be Prince Regent’s wife. In this palace, all of us know
Prince Regent is the most powerful person. What are you talking about? Alright. Go and get my zither. Yes. -This skirt is too long.
-It’s pretty. Not long at all. This… what happened here? What’s wrong? This zither… I used ice silk to mend the strings. Well… who did this? Enough already. What’s important now is not to find who did this, but to look for a new zither in time. I know there’s a great Bitong Zither
in the Craft Department! Shall I go there and borrow it for you? Fine. We can only settle on this for now. Stop! Since Royal Uncle isn’t even coming, what’s the point of having this birthday party? You’re dismissed. Miss Yi is here! What are you holding? I’m here to play the zither for Prince Regent. What are you doing here? Take her away! Yes, Your Majesty! Let go of me! What are you doing? The zither! Greetings, Prince Regent! Greetings, Prince Regent! (Feng Ren, Prince Regent of the Winged clan) Nan Feng? Prince Regent?! Aren’t you Nan… No one can touch my zither! Let go of her! Feng Ren, don’t forget
I’m the King of the Winged of South Yudu City. I order you to let go of her! Get lost! Prince Regent, please calm down. Ms. Yi is new here. Even if she took the Bitong Zither, she didn’t do it on purpose. I don’t care about that. Today, she must die! You! Killing her with one strike is letting her off too easily. It’s been long since I had
a new maid in my Xuanqin Hall. What are you doing? Feng Ren! Put me down! Let me go! Let go of me! The first time, you destroyed my favorite music. The second, you broke your promise to me. The third, you broke my Bitong Zither. Do you know how you’re going to repay me? Do whatever you want. No matter what, I won’t give myself to you. Never! Did you think your face would make my heart pound? You can’t compare to her even just one bit. Your Majesty, you can’t go in. Do you still see me as the King of the Winged? Get out of my way! Tonight, I’ll kill whoever dares to stop me! Please forgive me for being disrespectful. Greetings. Prince Regent. Why are you here? What happened tonight… I wonder if you had planned it long ago. You and Yi Fu Ling seem to
have known each other for long. But you are not a womanizer, Prince Regent. Today, you and Feng Tian Yi
fought in front of everyone. It seemed that you were telling the world
that you were the King of the Winged. Looks like I don’t need to wait for Feng Tian Yi’s
20th Birthday Spreading Wings Ceremony anymore. You’re too pushy. I’m not purposely guessing on your plan. But you also saw what happened to Du Ruo Fei. Feng Tian Yi is determined to kill me. Don’t worry. The things you want are also what I want. But this time, it won’t be
as stupid as sending assassins. That means you can’t do
anything unilaterally again. I’m under your command, Prince Regent. Feng Ren! Feng Ren! Come out! Tian Yi! Tian Yi! Why are you here? What are you doing? Are you crazy? Have you gone crazy? Yes, I have. I love you like crazy! I love you, you hear me? If you’re not blind, you should have know long ago. I don’t care what Feng Ren did to you. You’re mine! Tian Yi, stop. We…haven’t known each other for very long. The most important this is… Nothing is more important than you are. And.. We still have a long life ahead
where we can understand each other. Sure enough the things you and I like have always been exactly the same. Yi Fu Ling is a person! But… she broke Yin Meng’s zither. Killing her a million times is not enough. Now that you are fighting with me, I’m interested in her instead. Do you think everything in this world is the same? Things look more appealing when you have to compete with others for them. Feng Ren, don’t you go too far. I don’t mind risking everything fight against you and sentence you to betraying your king. You’ll end up miserably. It’s not as serious as you think. All along, love is never a one-side thing. We have fought here for a while. Shouldn’t we stop and listen to Miss Yi’s opinions? What do you mean? Let her decide. If she chooses you,
I’ll crown her as the queen tomorrow. I can also let what happened today pass. I’m not sure what you’re trying to play but I won’t leave her here with you. Let’s go. I’m not leaving. What did you say? I said I’m not leaving. Greetings, Your Highness. Don’t worry. What you want is also what I want. But this time, it won’t be
as stupid as sending assassins. So you’re choosing me? One is being the royal queen while the other a nameless maid. You’re smart, though. What has he threatened you with? I am still the king, he won’t dare to do anything to you. So what if you’re the king? Feng Tian Yi, you’re too arrogant. Since the day we met, you’ve been bullying me and using me. You said you like me, but do I have to leave with you? Who do you think I am? A toy that you can play with for a bit when you like me and put me aside when you don’t? Or a maid at your command? Is this how you think of me? Or what? Do you really like him? Do you even know him? Do you understand him? Sure. Tonight, I planned to play the tune, Yin Meng, for him. It was taught to me by him. Fine. Great. You’ve been in love secretly. I am the one who was kept in the dark. What happened? I think I twisted my ankle. Let me see. Don’t touch me! I afraid I can’t walk anymore. Well… Then… Can you carry me on your back? Okay, let’s go. Look at the clouds in the sky. They look so free. They can be whatever they want to be. If you can get me one that’ll be great. What? I remember I watched you carry Miss.Yi from afar. She said she wanted the clouds in the sky. You would say, no matter what she wanted, you’d help her get it. Bi An Hua. Since your leg is injured, rest here for a while. Tell me where the flower is, I’ll look for it myself. We are here already. Right here. Where is it? Close your eyes first. Bi An Hua. You are being very strange recently. Believe me. Quickly, close your eyes. Bi An Hua, what on earth are you doing? Bi An Hua?
