My heart
Episode 14
Wan Qing,
I'm here today.
Do you have anything to say to me?
You're drunk.
Go back early and get some sleep.
Where are you going tomorrow?
Tell me where you're going tomorrow
with a dagger in your hand?
It's none of your business.
Wan Qing!
You've always been calm.
But why are you acting so impulsively
on this matter?
Wan Qing,
What exactly are you doing this for?
Can you stop running away?
Just say it! We'll face it,
and work it out together.
Face it and work it out together?
But how?
My parents died when I was a kid.
I ate people's leftovers,
and I wore people's unwanted clothes.
My life was so messed up.
I don't even know how I survived,
until I met Lin Sheng.
He took care of me and was there for me.
But three years ago,
someone broke into our house
and brutally murdered him.
Since then, we've been forever separated from each other.
I lost the most important person of my life.
A few days ago,
I saw the magic power army killing people,
and the victim's wounds
were exactly the same as Lin Sheng's wounds.
That's when I knew,
it was the magic power army who killed Lin Sheng.
So...
I have to take revenge.
I understand your feeling for taking revenge.
But now if you go there alone,
is like committing a suicide.
You don't let me join the army,
then I can only use my own way.
But all this is none of your business.
None of my business?
Alright.
It's okay that you ignore my feelings.
But have you ever thought about the kids at Ciyou kindergarten?
Have you thought about Xiaoyi?
Three years ago, his parents died in front of him.
It took him three years
to recover from it.
Have you ever thought about this?
I promised you,
that I'll take revenge for you.
Please trust me, okay?
I didn't know that you had such a tragic past
until today.
And I understand
why you've kept turning me down.
If my existence
will put a lot of pressure on you.
I will give some time to you
and to us.
But I just hope you are well,
and don't do anything dangerous again.
Qingqing.
Come on, put it there.
Father.
Qingqing.
I heard that you were out investigating all day.
You must be hungry.
Eat some food now.
Father.
I heard from Qi Yi
that tonight the magic power army came to reproach you again.
If tomorrow they come again,
I won't make it easy for them.
It's fine.
As long as there's no conclusion,
there is no peace.
How was your investigation today?
Tomorrow...
is the deadline.
If only there were a few more days.
But Her Majesty won't agree for sure.
Or should I go to ask the Crown Prince for help?
After all, I'm the Crown Prince's teacher.
I think he would do me a favor.
If he goes to plead with the Empress,
it might get us a few more days.
Father,
are you alright?
You'd better stay at home and rest,
I'll go.
My lady!
Since you already know that
the Empress and Lord Lu
have set a trap for Lady Qingqing up and the Crown Prince.
Then you have to do something to stop them.
What can I do about it?
I was hiding something from Qingqing,
which already made Father upset with me.
If I go to stop it,
Father will be furious when he finds out.
Why is Lu Qingqing always so lucky?
She was deposed as the Crown Princess,
but she was protected by Lord Jin
all the way in Manghuang forest,
and was unharmed.
She also got a master secretly to learn the magic power.
Now Lord Lu
is trying to fix her up with the Crown Prince.
It just doesn't make sense!
Lord Jin.
I don't know if he knows about it.
I'm going to pee.
Off you go.
Go.
Let's continue.
Pour the liquor for me.
Let's go.
Cheers!
Wan Qing!
Come on.
You're injured.
Are you alright?
I'm fine.
Let's get you to Doctor Wu.
Come on.
Doctor Wu's pharmacy
Doctor Wu.
How is Wan Qing now?
Come with me.
She was injured,
and caught a cold.
Her Qi and body are weak.
It's like the hot flame is seizing her heart.
Is it that serious?
Most importantly,
there's something still troubling her,
causing her to be emotionally disturbed.
As the saying goes,
seek your salve where you get your sore.
I'll make some medicine for her later
to treat her injury.
As for the others,
they need to be slowly adjusted.
Thank you, Doctor Wu.
Changqiu Hall
The deadline is drawing near.
If Qingqing still can't prove her innocence.
I'm afraid there are no other ways out.
Qingqing.
Your Highness.
Qingqing.
Do you have any news?
Lady Qingqing hasn't eaten yet, right?
How about having dinner with His Highness together?
I have no appetite.
How can you not eat?
Anyway, you need to eat a little bit.
Qingqing.
Have some more.
Your Highness.
About the fusang fruit...
The three-day deadline set by the Empress is drawing near.
But so far there's no result.
Your Highness, I hope you
can go to plead with the Empress
for a few more days.
I've been trying to figure it out over the past few days.
But I haven't found it yet.
I don't want to see you struggling with it.
Tomorrow, I will plead with my mother
for giving you a few more days.
Now, let's eat first.
Your Highness.
Lady Mudan is here.
Your Highness.
The Empress saw that Your Highness has been busy lately,
so she specially asked me to bring you this bottle of lotus wine
for Your Highness's health.
Qingqing.
It's rare for you to come over.
How about we have a drink?
Alright.
By this cup of wine,
I want to thank you for taking care of me all the time.
Don't mention it.
This lotus wine is refreshing and sweet.
It's worth drinking a little more.
If there's nothing else to inform,
both of you can leave now.
As your command, Your Highness.
Qingqing, cheers.
Lingyu.
Her Majesty asked me
to call you to the palace to answer something.
OK.
Lady Yunxi.
Lady Yunxi!
Lady Yunxi.
What brings you here, Lady Yunxi?
Your Highness.
The situation is urgent.
Qingqing is in danger now.
She's in the Crown Prince's Hall.
Maybe she's already drunk the wine with hehuan powder.
Look!
This place is spinning.
You're right.
Qingqing.
Do you know that?
Qiyuan Continent
is filled with beautiful girls.
But in my eyes,
you are the most special one.
You are more special than me.
From the first sight I saw you.
I was attracted by you.
Qingqing...
Crown Prince!
H-how comes it's you?
Changqiu Hall
Qingqing!
Qingqing...
Qingqing!
If Qingqing's sent back to the Lu Mansion like this,
I'm afraid more people will know about this.
Why don't you let her stay in your mansion tonight?
About this...
Lu Mansion's door is guarded.
If anyone sees it,
they'll definitely gossip about it.
Fine.
It's so kind of you, Your Highness.
Your Highness. Your Highness!
Why do I keep dreaming about you?
Do you know who I am?
Of course I do.
You are that little fox.
How could I not know you?
My lord!
According to the report from the informer in the palace.
Lady Qingqing and the Crown Prince had already drunk the drugged wine.
But at the crucial moment,
Lord Jin broke in,
and took Lady Qingqing away.
Nangong Yixin!
After you went out last night,
where did you go?
It's strange.
Last night, Mudan said that the Empress was looking for me.
Then she took me to a remote palace,
and locked me up.
They didn't let me out until this morning.
You were locked up?
The Empress saw that Your Majesty has been busy lately,
so she specially asked me to bring you this bottle of lotus wine
for Your Majesty's health.
The wine last night...
Wait!
Ridiculous!
Greetings, Your Highness.
I'll report to the Empress immediately.
Why did you do that, Mother?
Why did you speak so harshly to me early in the morning?
You should know better
than anyone else about what you have done, Mother.
The lotus wine that Mudan sent to me last night
was drugged, right?
Why did you do that, Mother?
Although I love Qingqing,
I never thought about
using such a dirty trick to get her.
Mingyang.
I'm doing this
for you own good.
I can tell you that,
last night, I didn't
touch Qingqing at all!
And I'm glad that I didn't do it.
Don't you like Lu Qingqing?
It is because I like her,
I will not hurt her
in such a shameful way!
If I did hurt her last night,
I would never forgive myself
in the rest of my life.
It's highly possible that
the magic power stone is sealed in her body.
The magic power stone?
Mingyang.
Do you know that
there's an old legend about the magic power stone?
The ancestors of the magic girl,
were united with the royal bloodline,
so that they could summon magic power stone inside them.
That's why
I made this unwise decision.
Impossible!
How can the magic power stone be in Qingqing's body?
Lord Lu has checked thoroughly many times.
It's absolutely right.
Besides, it was him who brought up this idea.
We all want you to ascend the throne as soon as possible.
Mingyang.
This is a great opportunity!
Come on.
Take it slowly.
How do you feel?
Thank you for saving me.
Wan Qing.
I'm really worried about you.
If I didn't follow you last night,
you would have got yourself killed.
Do you know that?
You don't have to worry about me.
I owe this to Lin Sheng.
I must avenge him myself.
What happened to Lin Sheng was not your fault.
You don't have to push yourself.
He also wanted you to be well.
No need to say more.
You can leave now.
I want to be alone.
Wasn't I drinking with the Crown Prince last night?
Why am I here?
Is this a dream?
Why is Nangong Yixin in my dream again?
Why am I here?
That's a question for you.
Did anything happen to us last night?
What happened last night?
Are you expecting something
to happen between us?
I'm not!
Don't talk nonsense!
I just had a dream.
But that dream felt so real.
So did you dream about me?
I had a few drinks with the Crown Prince last night.
And we talked about something afterwards.
And then... I don't remember.
Alright, I won't tease you anymore.
Last night, you were drunk.
I happened to go to the Crown Prince's hall and saw you.
I was afraid your father would scold you,
so I brought you back.
So that's it.
Right,
are you feeling better?
Why are you back?
Master was meditating in seclusion.
I was alone and bored,
so I came back.
I haven't solved the problem of the fusang fruit yet.
I'm afraid the entire Lu Mansion is going to suffer because of me.
How about this?
I'll send you home first.
And then I'll help you figure it out, okay?
You didn't go home all night.
If the Empress knows, she'll scold you again.
And that will implicate me.
Implicate?
I'm afraid that our relationship
will be entangled forever.
Lady Qingqing.
Lady Qingqing, you seem so calm.
Everyone in Lu Mansion is worried sick
that we might go to jail tomorrow.
But Lady Qingqing,
you don't seem worried at all.
You didn't even come home all night.
You have no right
to interfere with my affairs.
Want to remove this magic spell?
If you answer my questions,
I'll remove it right away.
Did your Lady Yunxi and you
go to Manghuang forest a few days ago?
Did you see Lu Qingqing at that time?
Let me ask you again.
Did you see the fusang fruit?
Lanxi Garden
Qingqing!
Qingqing...
Zhenzhu.
Where did you go?
I haven't seen you in a while.
You've got more and more unruly lately.
My lady.
I...
The elegant and decent Lady Yunxi
has such a fierce side.
It's jaw-dropping.
Greetings, Your Highness.
Your Highness.
I'm afraid it's not appropriate
for you to come uninvited
to a lady's residence.
It is inappropriate, indeed.
But compared to you, Lady Yunxi,
who went to Manghuang forest uninvited
and took the fusang fruit...
Which one do you think is more inappropriate?
I don't know what are you talking about, Your Highness.
My lady.
I...
My lady!
I...
I was manipulated by magic power.
I had to say it all.
Your Highness does whatever you want,
with your high magic power.
This is not what a gentleman should do.
Who told you that I'm a gentleman.
Something can't be done
by your abiding to the gentleman's law.
So? Lady Yunxi.
Do you want to hand over the fusang fruit yourself?
Or do you want to hand it over after I show
the evidence to the public?
I can't believe that, the handsome and unrestrained Lord Jin,
would completely ignore his reputation,
for the sake of my little sister.
I don't really care about my reputation.
I know that you have feelings for Mingyang.
The reason that you took the fusang fruit
is to keep Lu Qingqing from
returning to Qiyuan continent so soon?
So you can spend more time with the Crown Prince, right?
I don't care about your little tricks.
But have you ever thought about it?
If the fusang fruit does not appear again,
the Lu Mansion and yourself will be implicated.
You do care about that, don't you?
Lady Yunxi.
This is not what I expected.
Lady Yunxi has always been
a sensible person.
Never risk dozens of lives of your family
for a moment of pique.
Lu Mansion
Brother, you came to Lu Mansion early in the morning.
Did you find anything?
You come just at the right moment.
Let's go somewhere quiet.
I want to talk to you.
Did you call me over
for what happened last night?
I heard that you picked up Qingqing last night.
Qingqing did not know
the truth about the wine last night.
It's better for you and her,
if she doesn't know about this.
Mingyang.
I know you.
What happened last night
was your mother's idea, right?
Mother... She...
She did it on impulse.
I won't let that happen again.
The Empress has been dissatisfied with Lu Qingqing for a long time.
Sending her to Manghuang forest as a punishment,
was enough.
Let me ask you.
Why did she make such an unwise decision?
I don't know either.
But I definitely will not
use this way to get Qingqing.
I will make her
stay with me willingly.
I'll protect her.
Mingyang.
You and I have been brothers for years.
I know that,
as the Crown Prince,
sometimes you have no choice.
You should know the feelings of being held in check
better than anyone else.
So how could you
bear to see Lu Qingqing being framed by others?
Besides,
how can you guarantee that she will not lose her freedom
if she stays with you?
Do you mean Qingqing will lose her freedom
if she's with me?
That's a bit presumptuous of you to say it.
Although now,
I'm constrained by Mother and Lord Lu.
One day, when I'm on the throne,
I'll be in power myself,
and I won't be controlled by others anymore.
If Lu Qingqing
is willing to follow you,
I won't say a word.
But...
If someone is using her
as a tool to seek power.
I will not allow it!
What about your feelings for Qingqing?
You showed up in front of her again and again.
Don't you have any feeling for her?
You're right.
I can't lie to myself,
and I won't lie to you.
I do love Lu Qingqing.
Since you have admitted it,
I'm not going to back down.
And I'm not going to
let her go.
My lady.
The bed is ready. You can sleep now.
The three-day deadline is up,
and I still haven't found
the real fusang fruit.
I thought with magic power,
I could protect you,
father and my elder sister.
I'm the one who got you all involved.
I know you've tried your best.
You said we are family
and sisters, right?
If we are family,
we should share the burden together.
I'll be with you.
Thank you, Baihe.
I've gotten you guys into trouble many times
because of my reckless behaviors.
This time...
I can't implicate you guys anymore.
I've thought about it.
Tomorrow, no matter what punishment the Empress gives me,
I will accept it,
so long as she can spare Lu Mansion.
No way!
The Empress has always been dissatisfied with you.
If she...
Even if I die,
or if I'm deprived of my magic power,
and become a dud again,
I'll still accept it.
I'll take responsibility for what I've done.
Baihe.
This journey of practice
has taught me a lot of things.
I am no longer
the same person I used to be.
Lu Qingqing.
Three days have passed.
There's still no track of the fusang fruit.
What else do you want to say?
I have nothing to say.
This is my fault.
Please punish me, Your Majesty.
Your Majesty.
My daughter is young and ignorant.
It was my fault for not disciplining her properly.
I would like to be punished on behalf of my daughter.
Hope Your Majesty can agree upon this.
Father.
You don't have to take everything on yourself.
Lu Qingqing was guilty of deception.
In this case,
Lord Lu should also be punished
for your poor parenting.
Your Majesty.
I did this alone,
so I'll take the responsibility myself.
Please don't punish my father
and other members of Lu Mansion, Your Majesty.
I heard that
you were drunk in the Crown Prince's Hall the other day,
and acted improperly.
Now, the rumors are spreading.
And this matter needs to be solved as soon as possible.
However,
for the reason that Mingyang is in love with you,
if you marry Mingyang
as a concubine.
then I will not hold
you and Lu Mansion accountable for it anymore.
Your Majesty.
Qingqing was ignorant and made a mistake,
but she would never cross the line.
It's about the Crown Prince's reputation,
I'm afraid it's not appropriate to handle like this.
This matter still needs to be thoroughly investigated.
Please think twice about it, Your Majesty.
Sister.
Qingqing.
If you don't want to,
I'll take the punishment for you.
Father.
I've made enough mistakes.
Don't get involved because of me.
If you refuse,
the entire Lu Mansion will be exterminated.
Mother!
You can't do that.
No one can plead for mercy!
Every family has its rules.
We can't break the rules of Qiyuan continent
because of Lu Qingqing.
Mother.
I disagree.
Mingyang.
Don't be naive!
If Qingqing is going to marry me,
I want her to be with me
as my Crown Princess aboveboard!
It would be disrespectful to her,
if she becomes my concubine.
I won't allow it to happen!
I will clarify
the rumors outside.
You are out of your mind!
It seems that the Crown Prince is not feeling well today.
You should go back to the palace to rest.
Mother!
I'm not out of my mind!
I'm soberer than ever!
In my opnion,
if I can't even protect the woman I love,
what's the point
of being a Crown Prince?
What's the point of being a Crown Prince?
To be a Crown Prince,
you should think about the well-being of the world,
and never indulge in love!
I need to be a man before I am a king!
If I can't be a decent man,
how can I be a king?
Your Majesty.
I came to confess my guilt.
Lanxi Garden
If you give me the fusang fruit,
I promise,
you will not be implicated in this.
Greetings, Your Majesty.
You came uninvited,
and claimed to be guilty.
What are you guilty of?
A few days ago, I was in Manghuang forest.
And I played a little trick on her.
I secretly swapped
her fusang fruit.
I just wanted to tease her a little,
but I didn't expect
things to annoy you, Your Majesty.
I just realized
it became a big trouble.
It can't be you.
You were with me all along.
Silence!
It seems that Lord Jin wants to use this opportunity
to take the blame for Lu Qingqing.
But you have no evidence.
Why should I believe your story?
Take a look, Mother.
This is the fusang fruit.
Lately,
you've been involved with Qingqing,
and offended me.
I have to suspect,
that you're not satisfied with your position
and are up to something.
Mother.
You think too much.
I've never wanted to be disobedient.
It was supposed to be a small thing.
It's all my fault.
I was not aware of it.
So I handed back the fusang fruit.
Mother,
please don't blame this on Lord Lu.
Lord Lu has done his best for Qiyuan continent.
How sad would Lord Lu be
if there's any misunderstanding because of it?
You...
Fine.
Since we've got the real fusang fruit,
I'll keep my word
and not punish Lu Mansion.
As for the matter about Lu Qingqing and the Crown Prince,
we'll put it aside for now,
and discuss it later.
But Lord Jin hid the fusang fruit privately.
It's a terrible act.
You shall receive 100 times of magic whip,
as a punishment.
Lord Jin.
Do you admit your guilt?
I know I'm guilty,
and I'm willing to be punished.
You should take this as a warning in the future,
speak and act cautiously.
Yes, Your Majesty.
Your Highness.
Please follow me to receive the magic whips.
I've been drinking too much lately,
and I feel my body is sticky.
It's just the thing I need
to loosen up my muscles.
Fresh breeze and bright moon
How is Lord Jin?
Lord Jin doesn't allow me to talk about it.
I'll go visit him.
Lady Qingqing!
His Highness said, no guest today.
I must see him myself.
Lady Qingqing.
Don't put me on the spot, please.
Lady Qingqing!
Your Highness.
It's so late while you still came to see me.
Did you miss me?
Now is not the time to joke.
How's your injury?
Let me see.
I'm really fine.
Let me have a look!
I'm fine. It's just a slight injury.
I'm sorry.
It must have hurt a lot.
Why are crying?
Don't cry.
Think about it.
I'm the only one who was punished, so there's only one person getting hurt.
Compared to both of us being punished together,
it's more worthwhile in this way.
It's all my fault.
Don't cry.
I like to see your smile.
I'm glad you were always there for me.
Otherwise, Lu Mansion and I will...
I did it for you,
not for Lu Mansion.
Those people in Lu Mansion...
But they're still my family.
Qingqing.
Do you think there's something strange about this?
What do you mean?
During the whole time,
only you and Qi Yi held the fusang fruit, right?
Both of you are innocent of it,
which means the fusang fruit
had already been swapped
back in Manghuang forest.
You gave it to Qi Yi,
and Qi Yi took it back to Lord Lu.
With Lord Lu's magic power,
he surely knew the fusang fruit was fake.
But instead of asking you,
he sent it
directly to the Empress intact.
You're saying...
my father exposed it on purpose?
It's impossible!
My father has been defending me the whole time.
Besides,
why would he put me and the entire Lu Mansion
into such dangerous situation?
Qingqing.
The world is complicated.
It's filled with all kinds of interests,
power and even conspiracies.
You are in the middle of it,
and something can't be judged just by its surface.
You have to see some swirls underneath it.
Innocent as you are,
you can easily become a pawn of others.
Do you know that?
But why would they use me as a pawn?
Why do I suddenly become so important?
Besides, we are family.
Why do families do this to each other?
Qingqing.
You must remember that,
only those who are truly good to you
should be considered as family.
