My Heart
Episode 5
My lady,
it's about the Crown Princess selection.
Your dream will soon come true.
But why do you still look so worried?
The Crown Princess selection is coming,
but I feel more and more restless.
My lady,
on this Qiyuan continent,
regarding either identity
or witness,
you're the most excellent.
Just rest assured.
Other than you,
no one is qualified to be the Crown Princess.
Do you think His Highness will choose me?
If he...
My lady!
Please don't think too much!
I've heard
Her Majesty thinks highly of you.
She always praises you and says
you're elegant, decent and sensible,
with a good sense of etiquette.
His Highness will surely pick you!
See?
His Highness came to visit you here today, didn't he?
Do you really think
he came here for me?
Sure!
You're also
His Highness's childhood friend
who grew up with him.
Why haven't you finished transcribing Magic Inspiration Scriptures yet?
I've asked you
not to meet Lord Jin again,
while you still went to see him.
You didn't take my words seriously, did you?
Father!
I've told you
Lord Jin is a good man!
You're wrong about him...
Enough!
You'll never remember it
if I don't punish you!
Kneel down!
Please forgive her, Master.
Lady Qingqing knew she was wrong.
Kneel!
Please forgive Lady Qingqing, Master!
Qi Yi,
send some guards here to watch over Qingqing.
Never let her get out of this room
before she finishes transcribing the scriptures.
Yes, my lord.
My lady,
are you okay?
Please stop getting angry with Master!
Your Highness,
I know you don't like to celebrate your birthday
because of your father.
But in my humble opinion,
you should take a bowl of birthday noodles, anyway.
Brother!
A single bowl of noodles is not enough for your birthday!
Too simple!
Sit!
Okay!
See what I've brought you.
The hazelnut cake we both loved when we were little.
I've been missing this for a long time!
Today is your birthday.
You're one year older now.
Do you have any wishes?
I wish to celebrate today with my father!
Nanny Aman,
I want to make some desserts for Father by myself!
Okay!
The desserts you made look so great.
They must taste good!
Why hasn't Father come back?
Mingyang,
you came to find me so early
not just for this, right?
I'm here mainly to celebrate your birthday,
and I'd like to ask you a favor by the way.
We're brothers.
Just go ahead.
Tomorrow is my Crown Princess selection.
I hope you can help me as an examiner.
Tomorrow?
Why is it in such a rush?
According to the custom, the first round alone
needs one month to prepare!
Mother has kept mentioning it.
She taught me I need to build a family first and then pursue my career.
Grand Preceptor Lu is also selecting candidates.
Listen to me.
None of these matters.
What matters is your own thoughts.
My own thought
doesn't matter at all, does it?
You're the most popular man in Qiyuan continent
except for me.
It must be fun tomorrow.
They'll have fun,
while I won't.
It's selecting your wife!
But Mr. Lu has announced that,
on Qiyuan continent,
all those girls of marriageable age from noble families
can participate in the selection.
I just hope you
can go there to give me some advice.
Can you?
Mingyang,
it's okay for me to go there to have a look
as an outsider.
But if you ask me to be the examiner,
I'm afraid Her Majesty won't agree.
You're my eldest brother!
You have this right.
If Mother disagree,
I'll go explain it to her.
Let me ask you.
Who else are the examiners.
Mother,
you, and me.
That's all.
Mr. Lu is so concerned about you.
Doesn't he attend it?
Because Mother
specially asked Yunxi to participate in the selection.
For the sake of fairness,
Mr. Lu can't work as the examiner.
Then it's a deal, okay?
I'll wait for your arrival tomorrow.
Don't worry.
I won't miss such a lively occasion.
Well, then I'll leave now.
Okay.
To control Mingyang,
Lu Hongzhu is going to sacrifice his well-cultivated daughter,
Lu Yunxi.
His ambition is so apparent.
Why haven't I seen
that silly girl these days?
Did she get punished again?
Or is she planning for something new?
His Highness's birthday is in three days, right?
Yes.
Then why did he say
he didn't celebrate birthday?
Please tell me!
I swear I won't tell it to anyone else!
Lady Qingqing,
here's the thing.
10 years ago,
His Highness's father passed away on his birthday,
so His Highness doesn't like to celebrate it,
and just make it a simple day.
In No Magic Valley before,
he was accompanied by Lord Sikong.
But now, His Highness is here alone.
I see...
But it's his birthday, after all!
That's so poor if he's alone on his birthday.
Don't worry!
I'll come to be with him that day!
My lady,
the medicine is ready.
Come to take it.
You're still running a fever.
Should I fetch the imperial physician?
Don't bother.
You've been having a fever ever since you came back in the rainy day.
And later you were punished by Master.
It's already been three days!
In such poor health,
you still go to extreme lengths to transcribe.
Why?
Master didn't set a deadline!
Can't you continue to transcribe after you feel better?
No.
I have to finish it today.
I'll go out.
How could you go out in this condition?
You'll faint!
I'm not that weak.
Baihe,
give me some advice.
What should I give him as a present?
A present?
Today is his birthday.
I want to finish transcribing quickly to celebrate it for him.
It's so difficult to get close to Lord Jin,
and Master's also against your meeting with His Highness.
I think we should give up
and find other ways to improve your magic power.
No!
I can give up getting magic power,
but I'm determined to celebrate his birthday.
You don't know it.
He has few friends, just like me.
And he seldom celebrates his birthday.
But I knew it this year,
so I won't leave him alone on his birthday.
But isn't it your first priority
to get magic power?
I mean,
I can't give up the plan of getting magic power halfway.
It was not easy for me
to find this solution.
How could I give it up easily?
And don't worry.
Though he looks uneasy to get along with,
I find he's really a good guy
after I got along with him.
I just think your way of getting magic power
is so hard and painstaking.
Hard and painstaking?
Not at all.
I can appreciate a handsome man and get magic power at the same time.
It's all worthwhile.
I...
Your Highness,
are you thinking of Lady Qingqing again?
Nonsense!
Even if you are thinking of her,
you still can't see her these days.
Why?
What happened?
It's said she was punished
by Lord Lu three days ago.
She was also punished to transcribe scriptures,
and was not allowed to go out before she finishes.
And because she was caught in the rain the other day,
she's still running a fever.
When did it happen?
Why didn't you tell me earlier?
I also didn't know it until I came across Baihe
at the pharmacy this morning
when I went out to buy something.
Lord Lu punished Lady Qingqing
because she had been too close to you
these days.
Your Highness,
won't you make more trouble for her
if you go to meet her now?
Why did she run a fever?
I've given her Water Panacea!
Water Panacea?
It can cure serious illnesses,
and strengthen the physique.
Lady Qingqing is just having a fever.
Isn't it too precious for a fever?
Cut the crap!
Come over.
Prepare some supplements
and send them to her tomorrow.
Be careful.
Don't let Lu Hongzhu notice it.
Understand?
Go.
Lingqing Court
What are you doing?
I've finished the transcription!
My lady,
as Master commanded,
you're not allowed to go out these days.
Then bring my father here!
I'll speak to him myself.
My lady,
Master has left for other business today.
Please don't put us on the spot, my lady.
It's you who're putting me on the spot!
I've got punished,
and transcribed the scriptures.
Why can't I go out?
My lady!
Make way!
My lady, please give up...
Let us out!
-Baihe! -Let us out!
Baihe!
Why are you blocking us?
Let us out!
Let us out now!
Don't stop us!
Let go!
Breeze & Moon
Come on, drink with me.
Yes, Your Highness.
Your Highness,
happy Birth...
may all your wishes come true.
Xiaowu,
thank you.
With your company,
I'm not that lonely.
Hello, little rabbit.
Now that you're here,
just change back!
Your Highness,
I seem to have forgotten something.
Why are you here?
Xiaowu said today's your birthday.
It's such an important day.
I'm here to celebrate your birthday, of course!
My lord,
our people have arrived at the designated place.
But,
we didn't find anyone.
Didn't find anyone?
Then why did I recruit you, the useless man?
All the efforts I made are in vain, aren't they?
Please calm down, my lord.
Although we didn't find anyone,
we've still gained some information.
I'm afraid the previous vision
was caused by someone on purpose
to mislead the magic power army.
And now as we investigate one by one,
the search scope is narrowing.
We'll soon get to know where the magic girl is.
Caused by someone on purpose?
Who is it?
Sikong Ren or Nangong Yixin?
It's still under investigation.
The magic power army reported
that they caught
the one who sent the wrong information to them.
He's now tortured and interrogated.
We'll soon get the results.
Good.
You must make him confess
by any means.
I must catch that mastermind!
I want to know who on earth is hindering me.
Besides,
speed up the search for the magic girl.
I must get the magic power stone.
Yes, my lord!
My lord,
these are the scriptures that Lady Qingqing transcribed.
Give them to me.
Lady Qingqing is not feeling well these days.
Will you go to visit her?
All right...
Just send some supplements to her.
I'm busy with the Crown Princess selection.
I don't have much spare time.
Will Lady Yunxi also participate in it?
This doesn't seem to be something you should care about, right?
Don't you know
what you should care about?
Yes, my lord.
Your Highness,
do you still remember this?
The prize for the cuju game back then!
Xiaowu said it was left to you by your mother,
and this one and the porcelain fox in your room are a pair.
Now I finally return it to its original owner.
Actually, I have another little present.
What's it?
I've recorded my voice
in this rabbit.
So it can be with you and relieve boredom
when you feel boring.
Then I can
hear your voice every day, right?
Yes!
It's so good!
It can accompany you
when I'm not with you.
Okay, I accept it.
Thank you.
In order to come to celebrate your birthday,
I haven't eaten anything today!
I'm starving.
There are so many palatable dishes here,
and I guess you can't eat them all.
How about letting me help you eat them?
Right.
I've heard from Xiaowu that you were punished by your father.
Did you get hurt?
It's okay...
Yummy!
Mr. Lu sets really strict family rules,
then why did you still take risks meeting me?
Because I can't leave you alone
on your birthday!
I also celebrated my birthday by myself.
Baihe was the only one who accompanied me.
So I know how it feels if you celebrate
your birthday alone.
I don't want you
to be alone on your birthday.
Come on!
Thank you.
♫ Look back, and it's like a dream ♫
Happy birthday!
I do feel
♫ It tugs at my heartstrings ♫
a different kind of happiness on this birthday.
What kind of wine is this?
♫ We met, and started to have a wish ♫
It tastes so good! It's sweet.
♫ But our love story is so tortuous ♫
This is plum wine.
I brought it from No Magic Valley.
Seems like
♫ I can see it from your face ♫
there's myriad delicious food and interesting things
in No Magic Valley.
♫ It's so hard to end it ♫
I also want to go there!
Over the past 20 years,
♫ But this mundane world doesn't pity and miss it ♫
I've been kept in the little yard by Father,
unable to see the world outside.
You know,
I really envy little birds,
♫ If your warmth can melt frost and snow ♫
because they
can freely fly around.
♫ Why can't I feel your tender heart when we hug ♫
Now I've met you,
and you're my example.
♫ I miss you as time goes by ♫
Hope one day I can be an uninhibited and free person
just like you.
♫ But I see you drift away ♫
♫ Our encounter is like an empty dream ♫
But do you know
be it a bird
♫ But love doesn't fade away in my heart ♫
or the Prince,
both of them are not really free.
♫ My missing turns into frost and snow. It's hard to end it ♫
But you're the Prince!
Do you also feel unfree?
In this world,
no one is really free.
You're doing better than me.
I also have many worries, actually.
There are so many things I can't reject.
Well,
then I really feel sorry for you.
♫ Smile and talk, just like the first time we met ♫
You feel sorry for me? Why?
Because...
♫ Recall all the past ♫
Because...
Because you...
♫ Twists and turns. It looks so far away ♫
Lord Jin,
happy birthday.
♫ Who is still missing it ♫
Baihe told me that
everyone comes to this world because of love.
♫ Too many promises remain unfulfilled ♫
So the birthday should be blessed.
♫ They fade away ♫
I think your father also wished
you can celebrate your birthday happily.
♫ Nothing seems to be left tomorrow ♫
Don't blame on yourself.
♫ If your warmth can melt frost and snow ♫
Your Highness,
♫ Why can't I feel your tender heart when we hug ♫
you know what?
Every time I meet you,
I just have so many things to tell you in my mind.
♫ I miss you as time goes by ♫
But I don't know what to say.
♫ But I see you drift away ♫
You know,
every time I see you,
♫ Our encounter is like an empty dream ♫
I feel my heart beating faster.
I'm so excited and delighted.
♫ But love doesn't fade away in my heart ♫
I haven't had such feelings
over the past 20 years.
♫ My miss turns into frost and snow. It's hard to end it ♫
Lord Jin,
♫ Only hope you can't see my pains ♫
I love...
♫ Stay together with you forever in my dream ♫
I love to be with you!
♫ No one can solve the tricky problem posed by love ♫
♫ In this complicated world ♫
♫ Our encounter is like an empty dream ♫
♫ But love doesn't fade away in my heart ♫
♫ My miss turns into frost and snow. It's hard to end it ♫
Lu Mansion
My lady...
Your Highness.
What happened to Lady Qingqing?
Is she ill?
She's not ill!
She has already recovered.
She's just drunk too much with a low tolerance.
Okay...
Thank you for taking her back.
Let me do it.
Come on...
-No! No... -My lady!
Please let go, my lady!
I refuse!
All right... Lead the way.
But our Master...
It's okay!
Just be quiet.
Yes, Your Highness.
Finally, Lady Qingqing can have a good sleep.
You know what?
I Want to Go Outside
I really envy little birds,
because they
can freely fly around.
Now I've met you,
and you're my example.
She hasn't had a good rest yet these days
in order to transcribe scriptures.
She's pale.
So many cuju balls.
Does she like cuju?
My lady has been locked in this room since her childhood.
So she can only play cuju.
This is the toy she treasures most.
She's unwilling to throw it away after so many years.
She asked me to bring
these books and drawings from outside the mansion,
by which she got to know the outside world.
She's read them for many times,
while she always dreams
to live a free life herself.
I really feel sorry for her.
One more drink!
And we'll go to No Magic Valley!
Take good care of your lady.
Please rest assured, Your Highness.
Did Lord Jin send me home last night?
Yes.
Why didn't I remember it?
My lady,
you were drunk,
and had already fallen asleep when you got home last night.
Please don't take too much wine from now on.
I recall it!
What do you recall?
What I drank last night was so sweet,
and tasted really good!
Baihe,
you'll also like it if you try it.
What's more,
the moon last night was round and big!
I said a lot.
But I just can't remember
what exactly I said.
My lady,
now you've sent your gift,
and celebrated his birthday.
Then please stop thinking about Lord Jin from now on.
You'd better not go meet him.
No way.
I just don't feel good
if I don't see him.
I feel so anxious.
My lady!
I think you get close to Lord Jin
not to get magic power,
but to have a date with him, right?
Lingqing Court Qingyun Mansion
What's going on today?
Why is it so lively?
My lady, do you forget it?
The Crown Princess selection is today!
Lady Yunxi dressed up so early in the morning
and went to the Imperial Palace.
Yes!
How could I forget this?
The Crown Prince also invited me to play there the other day!
The Crown Prince invited you in person?
Are you going there to have fun
or run for the Crown Princess?
To have fun, of course!
The Crown Princess selection
must be more interesting than the capping ceremony, right?
You can't attend it at will!
My lady,
if you're selected by the Crown Prince,
you have to be the Crown Princess!
Baihe! You've thought too much.
I just think
the candidate performance must be fun!
I just go there to watch,
rather than run for the title.
And the Crown Prince also said,
the list of candidates had already been issued.
I'm not on that list.
So it has nothing to do with me at all!
Gentle Breeze & Bright Moon
Do you still remember this?
Xiaowu said it was left to you by your mother,
and this one and the porcelain fox in your room are a pair.
Now I finally return it to its original owner.
It can accompany you
when I'm not with you.
Xiaowu!
The Supreme Good Is Like Water
I'm going to attend the Crown Princess selection today.
Help me send this to Lady Qingqing.
Fu!
Hello, Xiaowu.
Fu,
I'm looking for Baihe.
Oh, sorry.
Baihe and Lady Qingqing just went out.
They've left?
Then can I go inside
to put this in Lady Qingqing's room?
I'm afraid it's inappropriate...
Then please send it there for me.
No problem!
Be careful!
Don't worry.
Jiangqin Palace
Lady,
please go to the back of the line to queue.
Act ostentatiously,
and dress exaggeratedly.
You don't look like a decent lady at all!
Who on earth sent the invitation letter to her?
Right.
She looks so strange.
Qingqing.
Yunxi!
You look so gorgeous today!
Why are you here?
Today's the Crown Princess selection.
I'm just here to have fun!
Have fun?
It's said there are many performances today!
I just want to come to have a look.
Qingqing,
today's occasion is of great significance.
Don't act recklessly!
Otherwise, if anything happens,
both Dad and I can't protect you.
Don't worry.
I won't make any trouble!
Let's go.
Your invitation letter, please.
Invitation Letter
I... I don't have the invitation letter.
The Crown Prince called me to come.
I'm sorry.
Only those with invitation letters can enter.
It's the jade bead bracelet!
Only imperial members can wear it.
Sorry for our rudeness.
You must be the distinguished guest invited by the Crown Prince.
Come in, please.
Then I'll go first.
Let's go.
Yunxi,
why hasn't the Crown Prince arrived yet?
Do we just keep waiting for His Highness?
Speak loudly,
and behave improperly before the royalty.
Improper hairstyle.
May I ask
which family you are from?
I'm not here to run for the Crown Princess!
You can just leave me alone.
Then what are you doing here
if you don't run for the title?
I...
Sorry, I didn't teach her well.
I apologize for my sister.
I'm here to cheer for the Crown Prince.
Nonsense.
Are you not afraid of disgracing Lord Lu?
Qingqing...
Lady Qingqing,
No. 1.
No. 1?
No. 1
I can be No. 1!
Why is Qingqing on the selection stage?
I didn't expect your attendance today, Yixin.
Seems like you really care about
Mingyang's Crown Princess selection.
If Mingyang didn't invite me,
I wouldn't have known this interesting event.
You two brothers are on good terms.
It's good that you come to give him some advice.
But you had stayed in No Magic Valley for a long time.
I'm afraid our criteria are different.
I have no criteria.
I'm just here to have fun.
But speaking of criteria,
I respect Mingyang's choice.
Why is she also here?
She's not on the candidate list, is she?
I invited her.
I find her lively, candid,
and uninhibited personality really cute.
Seeing her,
I'll also feel exhilarated unconsciously.
But I also don't know why she becomes a candidate.
However, I'm so looking forward to her performance.
The Crown Princess will be selected among ladies from noble families.
There are two tests in the selection.
Firstly,
appearance and physique.
Secondly,
talent performance.
Candidates will be scored by the Crown Prince,
Her Majesty and Lord Jin respectively.
After two rounds,
we'll pick three of you, who are gentle with good nature,
virtuous and decent
with graces and virtues,
as well as gorgeous and elegant.
So many rules.
I'm already so dizzy.
The Crown Princess will be selected after comprehensive evaluation.
Now I announce,
the Crown Princess selection
starts!
The first round, flower arrangement.
Lady Qingqing from Lu Family, please.
What should I do?
Please arrange flowers according to your aesthetics.
Just put these flowers into this case, right?
Yes, Lady Qingqing.
It's so easy!
Why is this test necessary?
So strange.
Flower arrangement
should be scored according to the speed, huh?
I've finished!
Is my work that funny?
Qingqing is really outspoken and adorable.
I've never seen any flower arrangement
like this.
F
F!
A!

Congratulations!
Yunxi! You're No. 1!
You're so great!
Next, those who score under five points, please leave.
The second round,
talent performance.
It's in reverse order this time.
Lu Yunxi is really a beauty with marvelous talent!
Only she can perform
such a special skill.
I really envy
her talent!
She'll definitely be chosen as the Crown Princess.
She's really a gorgeous and talented lady
on our Qiyuan continent.
Of course!
She's my sister!
A

Yunxi,
she's no match for you.

The top three have the same score.
Let's welcome them to the stage!
They're Lu Yunxi!

And the last one,

I?
