SUBTITLES BY Babel Fansub www.facebook.com/BabelSub Subbers : Rachel, Hakovip, Jasmine Joy Of Life Episode 44 What else did you say to him? Nothing else. When he was leaving, I gave him a reminder. What’s the reminder? I’ve been thinking that there’s one thing I should remind you. Did I do something wrong?
Since you said you’re in love with me in front of the Empress Dowager, don’t let others realize that… What are you saying? I said don’t let others know you’re lying. Don’t worry about it. I will come to see you a lot these days. It’s getting cold. Take ice-cold shower more often.
Beg your pardon?! Stay awake and control yourself. What do you mean? If you stay with me a lot, you must control yourself all the time and stay awake. Don’t fall for me, and don’t take it seriously. I am just afraid that you’re gonna be hurt. You just said it directly? Was it wrong?
Haitang, you’re so.. What? Nothing. I just realized that you’re quite matched with Xian Fan. Is His Majesty not awake? My lord. The water is cold. Let me add some hot water for you. What does she mean about “control myself”? And what else? Hurt myself? Usually I think she is low-key
I never know she is narcissism. If I just look at her for some time, I should marry her? So ridiculousness! Why are you so angry, my lord? Because you feel a bit pity, my lord? Nonsense! what’s your mean? Pity? I am angry, I’m pissed off. This, this just like… Just like… You..you..you, understand?
I see. You’re insulted. And the person who insulted you ran away. Am I right? Yes! No! It sounds weird. Take it easy, my lord. If your feel uncomfortable. You can use your charm, To let her fall into you and lose control. Then you ignore her. This is a way to revenge her.
All right. When we come back to the capital, You repeat your words in front of Waner. Don’t…. Lord..my lord.. Easy, my lord. I dare not to do that. You come to my place, Just to say this? Of course not, did you hear what I’ve done?
Secretly plan to smuggle with the royal family of Northern Qi. When we come back to Qing, I will report it. If I really did it, I wouldn’t tell you. The smuggling is just an excuse to have a relationship with Northern Qi’s royalty. In this way, it will be much easier to get information.
Zhong Shen will never agree. So we must destroy him. This plan needs your help. I haven’t recovered yet, how could I help? Give me the information about spies from Overwatch Council in Shangjing. This is Chen Pingping’s will, too. I will ask him about this when I go back. That would be too late.
Keeping information hidden is the safest way. How will it be late? We need to make actions to destroy Shen Zhong. Are you still doubting me? Your temper seems unreliable. This is all for hearing the real smuggler’s name from Shen’s mouth. Don’t hurry. Won’t you eager to know the truth? I’ve thought about it.
When we’re back in the capital, I will tell Chief Justice about this. He will certainly find out the truth. Then it would be credited to Chen Pingping, not me. You want to take the credit? I don’t want to be a chess piece anymore. You don’t trust Chief Justice. I don’t trust anyone now.
Then it’s impossible for me to give the information to you. The smugglers must have a strong background. If you work on it after going back, once they know about the investigation, the situation would be very complicated. If you do everything for Kingdom Qing, You should help me find out the truth.
How many spies from Overwatch Council hiding here, I don’t know, either. Why? I came here not long ago. How do you organize the spying work? Through one person, through him to organize the spying work here. Tell me the details. For Kingdom Qing. Don’t worry, young lady.
I will deliver it to your home soon. Shopkeeper, I need some oil. What kind of oil you want, my lord? Palm oil, 250 grams. Okay. Do you have a bottle? Yes. Three wen each. Do you have sesame oil? Sesame oil is too expensive. Nobody buys it unless it’s a day to worship heaven.
It can worship heaven, and people too. Okay. How much do you want? We can manke an order for you. 1923.5kg. Shopkeeper. Why you close so early today? Sorry. Please come back tomorrow. But I… Finally, you’re here. Since that thing happened to the leader, the court hasn’t sent anyone to handle his job.
I thought we needed to cool down for a while. Yan Bingyun has been saved by us. That’s great. He said all spies in Shangjing are arranged by you? Is there a command? I’ve persuaded Shang Shanhu to work for Empress Dowager of Northern Qi. So what you need to do next
Is to spread out what Shen Zhong and I said in the palace to the public. It’s not hard to do. I’ll inform them later. He will work with you together. But my lord. The identity of all spies in Shangjing is the top secret. How long have you been in Shangjing? Over 10 years.
Do you miss home? Surely, I do. After you finish this job, you can go home. He will replace you and control the spying work in Shangjing. I haven’t got such order yet. I just made the decision. May I ask what’s your title in the Overwatch Council? You’re the judge? Any other question?
This is quite important. It’s my decision. I’ll be responsible for any consequence. If Yan Bingyun doesn’t agree with this, he won’t let me come to see you. I understand. But… But you’ve been here for ten years, you made some friends here. Yes. It’s also the way to cover my identity here.
So you don’t take the order because you don’t want to leave Shangjing and also, your friends here? That’s not true. I’m willing to take the order. Moreover, may I ask which bureau does he belong to? And which director he workes for? He is not from Overwatch Council. What? Let me introduce you.
Son of Guo Youzhi, the Ministry of Rites. Guo Baokun. But my lord. All spies in Shangjing have been arranged by Overwatch Council. He takes orders from me directly. If you have any problem with me, after you go back to the capital, you can impeach me. But now, you need to take my order.
Yes, my lord. Alright, you can go now. I have some words with him. I’ll prepare at the back yard. Later, I’ll take this lord to see all spies in Shangjing. Have you made the decision? From today, you’ll stay in our enemy’s capital alone, risking your life. You promised you’ll save my dad.
You have my word. Why you chose me? Controlling all spies in Shangjing is an important job, so it has to be my people. I’m not your subordinate. Except me, will anyone save your dad? Is anyone able to save your dad? You have no choice. If you lie to me,
I’ll kill you by myself. No. You must let me kill you at that time. Don’t worry. By the way, Shen Zhong konws me. He will be our trouble. It’s okay. Your job is being a disguise. You just do the normal business. And the real controller of spies will be someone else. Who?
What if someone come and check the store? The smuggling is our deal with the royal family of Northern Qi. Once it starts, it would benefit a lot of people. If there’s any problem, they are gonna solve it for you. It’s ridiculous. Getting information by risking your life. Hiding yourself is dangerous and inefficient.
It’s time to change the method. From now on, let the enemy protect us by making them money. But Shen Zhong has already refused it. Shen Zhong won’t be our problem. People’s desire cannot be stopped by just a man. That does make sense. Don’t smile like that. Have you heard that? In Kingdom Qing,
Someone wants to do business with our country. If it works, we’re gonna earn a lot of money. I heard that the imperial guards will handle it. If it works, all of us can take advantage from it. But I’m afraid it’s hard. Couple days ago, Lord Shen said he wouldn’t accept it
In front of His Majesty. Really? You didn’t know that? Tell me about it. Two days ago, Lord Shen said in front of the Empress Dowager… My lord. Your conversation with Fan Xian which said in front of the Empress Dowager is spreading everywhere in the city. A nice one, Fan Xian.
But he forgot a thing. This is a city of our imperial guards. Inform the Cheonhos. Stop the rumour. No mercy for talebearer. Is this fresh veggie today? Yes. It’s fresh. Just picked. Have a look. Fresh pork. Pork ribs. What do you want, my lady? This is good. It’s just picked. I want two.
I thought the Saintess supposed to love calligraphy and painting, or some magic weapons? Well, I prefer to eat. Help me to trim it. Trim it. Okay. Okay. It’s not fresh outside. Don’t put it in there directly. It’s all fresh. Should you pay attention to it? What? You’re the Saintess.
It’s not matched your image with a basket. We’re not in the palace. You should pay attention to your image all the time. You can’t just pretend in the palace. You’re right. Take it. I have a question. Shoot. Are you the one who spread the rumour in the city? That’s right.
Well, do you know that Shen Zhong ordered his imperial guards to block the information? It won’t work. They are more powerful than you think. I know that. But it won’t work. Want a bet? You are pretty sure about it? My lord. What can I help you? After I placed the order,
Why the rumour is also spreading out there? My lord. All Cheonhos took the order. But they can do nothing about it. I also pushed them these days. But they all said that they tried their best to do it. Well… Why you’re so sure that the imperial guards won’t follow his order?
Because they’re all people. So what? People have desire. If the business works, it would benefit the imperial guards. Why would they refuse to live a better life? Shen Zhong stuck in their way of earning money. Of course, no one will help him. But there’s someone not interested in fortune.
Well, they’ll care about the power and fame. Shen Zhong is the only one who control the imperial guards. If he is keeping on the position, how can they take over him? If it’s like what you said, why Shen Zhong can hold the position earlier and no one go against him?
With Empress Dowager’s trust and respect, they knew that he cannot be defeated, so they just followed him. But what about now? Now, Shang Shanhu has risen. And Shen Zhong is not the only one Empress Dowager relies on. That’s right. So it’s all your plan?
Ruining one’s business is the same as killing his parents. The smuggling benefits not only the imperial guards. Trust me. Shen Zhong will be people’s enemy by doing it like this. As long as the Empress Dowager trusts him, he will be fine. I don’t wanna celebrate my birthday ceremoniously.
Sharing happiness with people will be fine. Understood. I’m gonna arrange it appropriately. You got plenty of things to do. Trifles like this. You don’t have to handle it by yourself. Wrong! Put it in there! But it’s the duty of imperial guards. Yes, it surely is. I remember you have a subordinate.
He’s quite smart. Let him deal with this. Your highness. I’m afraid that you cannot be everywhere at once, so I think it’s good to ask someone to help you. It’s my turn. I didn’t play it. Wrong. That one. Thanks, your highness. You may excuse yourself now. I won. Great. One more round.
Right. His time has passed. The general is your highness’ most trusted person. Shen Zhong made with Empress Dowager unhappy. I heard that. He’s not as same as before. Your highness doesn’t call in him anymore. My lord. The tailor has adjusted the size of your robe. The pattern which your highness granted
Is on the robe as well. My lord. Should all Cheonhos come and report today? Why no one comes today? Am I remembering the wrong date? 2 Tongzhi, and 2 Qianshi are too busy to come. All Cheonhos are going to follow them. At least, they should notice you, my lord.
It’s also good to have some leisure time. So why does Empress Dowager depreciate Shen Zhong? Shen Zhong has a strong character. But she didn’t care about it before? That’s because he leads the imperial guards. She will surely turn a blind eye for the sake of his values.
But now, she must keep her eye open. The imperial guards are heavily divided. The Empress Dowager is informed of everything. She could literally eradicate the covert struggle and resume his duty with one word. Why would she help him? The courtiers are divided into factions, all fighting for authority.
Such that the ministry can reach a balance. It’s certainly more stable than before. But Shen Zhong made his moves all for loyalty not his personal interests. It has nothing to do with loyalty. Many loyal courtiers got killed in the history. Where are we heading?
I remember I was poisoned the first time we met. Not again. And you made me believe that’s philter. That’s my only choice at that time. I though we have all settled. We are not even. I’ll lead you to somewhere notoriously dangerous and take my poison revenge. If you’re scared, just go home.
Poison revenge? You just made that up, right? Who owns this place? Me. You grew up here? Not exactly. My teacher told me to stay in Shangjing. But I enjoy peaceful living, I bought this land for planting. I come by when I have time. You’ve been taking care of all these?
I just throw the seeds at random. No much effort. Just let them grow. She picks up seeds by the road and throws them randomly by the wall. She says there’s no need of planting as life will find its way to blossom. Who is this she? Your mom says one has its destiny.
Let it go. You remind me of someone else. Another Saintess? It’s a pity they are not grown yet. Otherwise I don’t need go to the market. Give me that. You like planting. Doing these planting gives me serenity. People often find serenity by instruments and incense. This is my own way.
You don’t want to sit down? It’s time to loosen the soil. The soil? Thanks. This water is sweet. How come you know how to farm? I used to farm poisonous plants. The essence is the same. You are weird. You too are a weirdo. I can’t see through you even now.
Why see me through? What’s the point? Nothing. Why bother if there’s no point. How to prove we are alive if we care about nothing? Do we need a proof for living? The common response is `of course’. And the uncommon one? I don’t know. We’re talking nonsense. I like it. Idling.
Enjoy the sunshine and say some meaningless words. Life is not hard anymore. Do you often feel life is hard? Struggling in the swirl of politics. It’s like crossing over the abyss bridged by a vine. I have to stay vigilant all the time. That’s why I value time like this-
Sitting down with a friend, thinking about nothing, and talking as our minds flow. Is that so hard? Having nothing to do is hard. Finding a friend is even harder. Are we friends? To some degrees, you are my enemy. But you know, an enemy isn’t the most dangerous among all. That’s true.
Those who pick up fight on Shen Zhong are all his followers. His friends. They’re not his friends. Like I just said, people like me are hard to make friends. If I’m not mistaken, you’re quite anxious. I’m just disappointed. You’re born with a silver spoon in your mouth with no obstacles to success,
Added that you’re a talented poet. How can a life as such disappoints you? Loneliness, friendlessness. You’re such a nitpicker. I am a nitpicker. You’re head of the Overwatch Council. About to have a lovely wife upon return. Having a sister who’s famously talented. Son of an authoritative minister, connected with a bunch of intellectuals.
How come you are lonely and friendless? Father, wife and sister are just family. For others, we’re just bund by interests. You can call me a hypocrite. You can say I’m playing the fool. All in all, the minister is not an easy title. The son is not played easily either.
Not a single friend for this long? I had one called Teng Zijing, but he died because of me. For now, Wang Qinian can count as one. You think highly of this man. He lives more real than me. What’s real? He fears his wife. He loves his daughter.
For all his life, he lives for them. Though there’s hard time, he has something to live with. Your life is not real? I have too many secrets. I can’t speak out or speak to anyone. Like what? Like I’m actually the son of the emperor, born with dignity.
But I was sent to Fan’s Mansion as a baby. Save this bullshit. No need to fool me. You have nothing else to say? Yes, I have. I’m hungry. No need to stare at me. I won’t steal your portion. I don’t know you can cook.
I live in the valley with my teacher and all other disciples. I cook for all of them. You said you are the last disciple. One more disciple, no worries for cooking. Well played. Wait there, I’m almost done. Try this. Wow, it’s really good. You trust me this well that I won’t poison you?
Poison me as you wish. I remembered you’re the master of poison. What? drink? You really take here as your home. You better have some good drinks. This is really good. That’s from Qingyu Store of your country. Really? At that time, Ye Qingmei was incredibly good at managing.
The Qingyu Store earns money from everywhere. Anything good comes from her store. She was indeed incredible. You must be thinking that I have a smooth path ahead of me, but I’m acting like I’m drowning my sorrow. I don’t have time to think about that. I can’t let you finish such good drink alone.
No rhythm at all. I just come up with a poem that suits me well. I want to hear it. Thanks to one small act of kindness, he meets by chance a great friend; fortunate that his mother has done some unnoticed good. Men should rescue the distressed and aid the poor,
Be not like her heartless uncle or treacherous cousin who for love of money forget their own fresh and blood. Truly, rewards and punishments are meted out by Heaven. That sounds familiar. The poem for Wang Xifeng from the Red Mansion. What’s its name? A Little Act of Kindness
Rescue the distressed and aid the poor. That’s very positive. But it’s hard. Teacher always says the hard things are destined to be done. You are encouraging me? What makes human so different from other living creatures? Just righteousness. Though we’re from different countries, we share the same essence.
I hope that you can fight for peace after return to your homeland and rescue people from poverty. You wanted to kill Xiao’en before. What makes him different? Kill one for the sake of 10,000. What’s wrong with that? It’s not a math problem. If it comes to a day when 100 people would die
And you had to kill 49 to save 51. Would you kill them or not? We are both ruthless after all. No need to worry about me. Just let me get drunk. Don’t drink too much. You will get drunk. You are… You awake? Lili? I thought you were gonna sleep the whole night through.
It’s almost dawn. I don’t have a formal identity. And I’m still living outside the palace. But my good days will come soon. After the Empress Dowager’s birthday, I can move to the palace. I… I don’t know why. I’m just thinking all about you, like I’m going crazy.
I just want to meet you before moving to the palace and tell you my feelings. Fan Xian. I really like you. Lili, I have a fianc‚e named Lin Wan’er. I have vowed to love her all my life. Life can be long, but it can also be short. I have just a little heart
That cannot hold more than one person. You don’t have to say all these. I’m just letting you know my feelings. You love the person you love. And I like the person I have feeling for. Let’s not disturb each other. Is that alright? After tonight, we might never see each other again.
For future days, our paths may never come across. I just want to talk to you. I asked Duoduo to do me this favor. It’s a bit absurd, I know. But I don’t regret telling you. Don’t get nervous. Let’s just talk. Maybe… You want to talk about the one you love?
How did you two meet? How did your heart fall for her? I’m just curious about it. I want to know your story. You really want to know? Yes, I do. Actually, it’s quite unexpected. It’s the time when I first came to the capital from Danzhou. We met at the Qing Temple.
And she was holding a… The cock is crowing. So what? All the cocks are crowing. Do you know what that means? What does it mean? It’s daybreak. You two finished talking? When did you give me poison? You’re the disciple of Feijie. How can I poison you? Then how did I fall unconscious?
The drink was quite strong. You’re not poisoned but drunk. Then why aren’t you drunk? I’m blessed with a never-get-drunk body. You’re… I’ve warned you that I’ll take the poison revenge. It’s you who didn’t take much care. You psycho. Python patterns bestowed by the emperor.
For all the ministers on court, the blessing only falls on you. My lord, today’s the birthday of Empress Dowager. While you’re on court, how about you… What? How about you yield a little bit, and make an effort to do the smuggling? My lord, it’s not just the imperial guards.
All other ministries are expecting the business. If you don’t compromise, you’ll antagonize all the officials. Your nod will surely cheer the Empress Dowager up. Then, she’ll resume your position. Staining myself means showing no respect to this robe. My lord. Please be seated. My lords. This way please. My lords. This way.
Can we sit here? Sure, your seats are here. If not here, we have to sit outside the palace. Lang Tao will challenge Fan Xian. My lord. My lord. You alright? Yeah, I’m okay. Take him to somewhere cooler. Give him some water. Chinese TV Series Exclusive YouTube
