(Dubbed) I Married a Beggar, He's the Emperor! - Chinese Drama #englishsub 🌸🌸
Transcript
00:00:00Clara Shaw of the Miller family has shown exceptional virtue, diligence and grace.
00:00:04She is hereby granted the title of Grand Dame.
00:00:07I humbly accept this great honor.
00:00:09Lady Miller, accept the Imperial Edict.
00:00:20Murder! Somebody help!
00:00:22Help!
00:00:33Erika...
00:00:34Why?
00:00:35Don't call my name! You're not worthy!
00:00:38I...
00:00:39We're both daughters of the Shaw family! Why shouldn't you have a better life than I do?
00:00:43If only three years ago, the one who caught my rhino ball had been ammo!
00:00:46This wonderful life you covet is actually a total lie.
00:00:50Clara Shaw, do straight to hell!
00:01:01If I were given another chance, I would give up all this honor.
00:01:08Look at the time! Why are you still fast asleep?
00:01:10Honestly, Victor, all those wealthy lords heard our girls are choosing husbands, and they've rushed over to catch the balls!
00:01:16But look, she's still sleeping! She has absolutely no manners at all!
00:01:19Let me tell you, when you and Erika throw your balls, you better pick carefully!
00:01:23Whoever marries best will be the bride of this family!
00:01:25Don't you disappoint me!
00:01:29Wasn't I just stabbed by a sword?
00:01:38I've been reborn! Back to three years ago!
00:01:41The exact date we choose our husbands!
00:01:45My lady, it's your turn to toss the ball!
00:01:49Erika Shaw...
00:01:51Clara...
00:01:52Let me throw mine first!
00:01:53In my past life, Erika tried everything to make me throw first, backing out every time!
00:01:58But now...
00:02:00It seems Erika was reborn too!
00:02:02Fine!
00:02:02You can go first!
00:02:05Over here!
00:02:05Toss it over here!
00:02:06Give it to me! Give it to me!
00:02:08Over here!
00:02:08Over here!
00:02:08Right here! Give it to me! Please!
00:02:11Get out of my way! All of you get out of my way!
00:02:17In this life, the one marrying Amos will only be me!
00:02:24Give it to me! Give it to me! Give it to me! Give it to me!
00:02:26Give it to me! Give it to me!
00:02:28Look, Victor! The man who caught it is the Miller family's second son!
00:02:31It's him! It really is Lord Amos!
00:02:33The Millers are royal relatives! His older brother Henry was just made deputy chief justice! If the Shaw family allies
00:02:40with the Millers, we'll be tied to royalty too!
00:02:43Amos Miller...
00:02:44In this lifetime, I have finally changed my destiny! In three years, Amos Miller will be promoted, and I will
00:02:50become a noble grand dame!
00:02:52Oh, Erica Shaw! Erica Shaw! You schemed and plotted, completely unaware you just walked right into a wolf's den!
00:03:00Excellent! Excellent! Erica, you truly are the daughter I raised! You've made our family proud!
00:03:04You flatter me, Father! I'm only doing this for the good of our family!
00:03:08Once I become Lady Miller, I will always conduct myself a care and bring prosperity to our family!
00:03:13Clara, wouldn't you agree?
00:03:16You're quite fortunate! Of course I'm happy for you!
00:03:19Clara Shaw, your good fortune is now mine! In this life, I will never let you outshadow me again!
00:03:27Erica, look! It's Lord Amos! He can't take his eyes off you!
00:03:38Wait, isn't that...
00:03:41Your Majesty!
00:03:43Master, if the Empress Dowager fights out, you'll let the palace trust like this!
00:03:46Mother forces me to pick concubines daily, so I came out here for some peace. I'll take this chance to
00:03:50experience the lives of ordinary people.
00:03:52You always care for the people, but these clothes...
00:03:55These clothes may be torn, but they help me blend in. Do you really expect me to wear my robes
00:03:59while strolling the streets?
00:04:07Are you alright, Master? Watch where you're going, you filthy beggar!
00:04:10Hurry!
00:04:10Squireshaw's daughters are tossing balls for husbands. We'll miss it if we're late!
00:04:13For husbands? Let's go! Let's go have a look!
00:04:15In my past life, a filthy beggar caught my bridal ball, making me suffer terribly after I fled.
00:04:20Perfect! Now I'll let you taste the pain of being abandoned by family!
00:04:25Go on, do exactly as I said!
00:04:27Yes, Lady Erica!
00:04:28What are they up to?
00:04:29Now that our family has secured ties with the Millers, Clara's choice of husband cannot be any lesser!
00:04:35Mother, what are you saying? Clara has always been lucky, so she'd never embarrass father.
00:04:40If you ask me, Clara will soon end up picking the absolute best husband.
00:04:44Clara! Now that your sister's marriage is settled, we've secured a man of power!
00:04:49You need to pick a man of wealth to truly be worthy of being my daughter!
00:04:54My lady, it's your turn.
00:04:56Political schemes and endless wealth are ultimately just passing clouds.
00:04:59In this life, I only wish to find a good man and live a peaceful life.
00:05:04Lady Clara, throw it to me!
00:05:05Lady Clara, throw it to me!
00:05:07Oh! Hey, get it! Get the ball!
00:05:09Give us!
00:05:09Oh!
00:05:12It's mine!
00:05:13Hey!
00:05:14Aw!
00:05:14Aw!
00:05:15Aw!
00:05:21It's him!
00:05:22In my past life, he was the exact one who caught Erica's bridal ball!
00:05:26Oh dear!
00:05:27How could the bridal ball end up with a beggar?!
00:05:30Clara, what terrible luck!
00:05:31Of all people, you picked a beggar!
00:05:33You must have really angered the gods!
00:05:35How will father ever show his face?!
00:05:36You useless girl!
00:05:38With the crowd there, you threw it to a beggar!
00:05:40Now all Kingston is laughing at us!
00:05:42Are you trying to humiliate me?!
00:05:44Victor!
00:05:45At least our Erica did us proud by securing the Miller family!
00:05:48Otherwise, we would be utterly disgraced today, unable to ever hold our heads high again!
00:05:53What's done is done!
00:05:54Clara, don't be too upset!
00:05:55He may be a lowly beggar, but at least he's not bad looking!
00:05:58I just feel sorry for you!
00:06:00Raised in luxury your whole life, and now you actually have to marry a beggar!
00:06:03Ugh!
00:06:04A woman's marriage is the most important path in her entire life!
00:06:07You chose a beggar!
00:06:09From now on, you'll be living on the streets!
00:06:11We cannot help you!
00:06:12Well, well!
00:06:13Now this is a show!
00:06:14Will the noble girl actually marry a beggar?
00:06:17Everyone's watching!
00:06:18If she refuses the marriage, her family will break their promise!
00:06:20Who dares associate with them after that?
00:06:22Let's see how they handle this!
00:06:24Hey!
00:06:25Where are you going?!
00:06:26Stop her!
00:06:26Don't let her get away!
00:06:27Master!
00:06:28I've finally found you!
00:06:30Oh!
00:06:31For heaven's sake!
00:06:33Why is the bridal ball in your hands?!
00:06:35Why don't you just throw it away?!
00:06:36Once we're outside the palace, we're just common folk.
00:06:40We can't go against local customs.
00:06:42Besides, look at my filthy rags!
00:06:44Why would she ever marry a guy like me?
00:06:59I...
00:06:59Clara, in such a hurry to see your wonderful groom, you're the one who threw the ball, and you're
00:07:06the one who chose him.
00:07:07Don't tell me you regret it now!
00:07:09You wretched girl!
00:07:10Look at that filthy beggar you attracted!
00:07:12If he really becomes my son-in-law, you'd be dragging our entire family's honor through
00:07:15the mud!
00:07:15In my past life, my life at Miller Manor was unbearable.
00:07:18I was reduced to being a pawn in the Shah's quest for power.
00:07:21Thinking about it now, I'd rather marry a beggar and live a peaceful life.
00:07:24The rule of the bridal ball is that the first catch is final, even if you refuse to marry him.
00:07:28I'm willing to marry him!
00:07:29I'm willing to marry him!
00:07:35What are you kidding me?
00:07:36How did that happen?
00:07:38I'm Clara Shaw.
00:07:40What's your name?
00:07:41I...
00:07:43I'm Luke.
00:07:46Today, with all of you as my witnesses, I, Clara Shaw, will marry Luke!
00:07:52Wow.
00:07:53Woah.
00:07:54Woah.
00:07:56You really want to marry me?
00:07:58Of course.
00:07:59Since you caught my bridal ball, are you trying to back out now?
00:08:03No, it's not that.
00:08:04It's just that I have nothing.
00:08:05Marrying me means facing a hard life and going hungry.
00:08:09You still want this?
00:08:10We both have working hands, so we can build whatever we need ourselves.
00:08:12If we work hard, fund some work, making a decent living, won't be a problem.
00:08:16Palace people will do any evil for self-gain.
00:08:19I've never met someone so easily pleased.
00:08:21A filthy beggar!
00:08:22And she's treating him like a prize!
00:08:24Oh, Clara.
00:08:25You need to think this through.
00:08:27Marrying a beggar is throwing your future away!
00:08:29A good future isn't built on status.
00:08:32It's built on character and integrity.
00:08:34Luke may be poorly dressed, but he seems kind and well-mannered.
00:08:38He could be a good match.
00:08:40You!
00:08:40What?
00:08:41The rules of the match are already set.
00:08:43Even if the Squire wants to go back now, it's too late.
00:08:46Exactly.
00:08:47If he breaks the deal, it violates our traditions and ruins the Shaw family's reputation.
00:08:54Since you've made up your mind, don't come blaming this family later!
00:08:58Any future glory we achieve will have nothing to do with you!
00:09:01I understand, Father.
00:09:03Alright everyone, break it up!
00:09:04Always have to watch the drama, honestly.
00:09:07Well, the show's over.
00:09:09Time to go home!
00:09:10Lord Amos!
00:09:11Lord Amos, please wait!
00:09:13Lord Amos, please come inside the manor to discuss the wedding.
00:09:20Let's go.
00:09:21This way, please.
00:09:22Clara, don't say I didn't warn you.
00:09:25By marrying that beggar, for the rest of your life, you'll always be beneath me.
00:09:30You should worry more about yourself.
00:09:32Life in the Miller Manor won't be nearly as pleasant as you imagine.
00:09:43You...
00:09:44Excuse me, excuse me!
00:09:45Whoa!
00:10:00Oh my goodness!
00:10:02Are you alright?
00:10:04Are you hurt?
00:10:05I'm fine.
00:10:06See, I'm perfectly fine.
00:10:08I'm so sorry!
00:10:09I'm so sorry!
00:10:09It was an accident.
00:10:10Just be more careful next time.
00:10:12Okay, I will.
00:10:13Marrying such a kind and honest man is truly my greatest blessing.
00:10:16In three days, come to the Shaw Manor for our wedding.
00:10:19Turning to the palace means being forced to choose concubines instead of that.
00:10:22Alright.
00:10:24I'll definitely be there.
00:10:32Oh man, there's so many gifts.
00:10:36Wow, that's fantastic.
00:10:38Oh man, there's so many gifts.
00:10:49Wow, that's fantastic.
00:10:52Lady Erica's dowry is worth a fortune.
00:10:54But Lady Clara gets nothing.
00:10:56They're both Shaw daughters, but the difference is massive.
00:10:59Haven't you heard?
00:11:00Lady Erica is marrying the second son of the Miller family, while Lady Clara is marrying some beggar.
00:11:04Of course they're treated differently.
00:11:05Oh, so embarrassing.
00:11:06If you really marry that beggar, your life will be full of hardship.
00:11:09I wonder if you can even handle it.
00:11:11The groom is here!
00:11:15He's truly a son of the Millers.
00:11:17What a grand entrance.
00:11:18The Miller family is incredibly powerful.
00:11:21Erica will enjoy endless blessings after marrying him.
00:11:24But Lady Clara marries a beggar.
00:11:26Her future will be a joke.
00:11:28He's here!
00:11:28He's here!
00:11:35My respects, father, mother.
00:11:38Amos, there's no need for formalities.
00:11:40Amos, this wedding procession of yours is a rare sight in Kingston.
00:11:44To have you honor Erica like this is a privilege for our family.
00:11:48Lord Amos has arrived, but where's the other groom?
00:11:51If I were him, I would crawl into a hole and never show my face.
00:11:54Clara, the auspicious hour is passing.
00:11:56Your husband isn't here yet.
00:11:58Did he abandon you?
00:12:01He's here!
00:12:01He's here!
00:12:02The groom has arrived!
00:12:07You're finally here.
00:12:09I will do what I promised.
00:12:16My royal...
00:12:18Uh...
00:12:20My...
00:12:21Apologies.
00:12:22I'm late.
00:12:23What in the world are you wearing?
00:12:24In front of all these noble guests?
00:12:25You are completely humiliating me!
00:12:27Today is supposed to be a wedding day, yet this filthy beggar wears these rags to marry a bride.
00:12:31Clara truly has no sense of shame.
00:12:33Marriage is a lifelong commitment.
00:12:35It's about true love, not appearances.
00:12:37The man I, Clara Shaw, chose will never be shaken by idle gossip.
00:12:40Haven't you embarrassed us enough?
00:12:42Victor, don't be angry.
00:12:43Once Clara leaves this door, she is no longer a Shaw.
00:12:46The auspicious hour has arrived!
00:12:48Bring up the bride!
00:12:53Minister Voss has arrived!
00:12:58Your...
00:12:59Shut your mouth if you want to live.
00:13:01What an honor, Minister Voss.
00:13:03Forgive my lack of proper welcome.
00:13:05Heaven truly does reward the faithful.
00:13:08Squire, congratulations.
00:13:11This way, Minister Voss.
00:13:14No, after you.
00:13:15The groom comes first.
00:13:16Please go ahead.
00:13:20Don't tell me you walked here.
00:13:22On a wedding day, a bride has never walked to her new home before.
00:13:26Well, today is certainly a first.
00:13:29Tell me about it.
00:13:30Unlike my husband.
00:13:39My dear, let's go home.
00:14:02Clara Shaw, just wait until I'm the Grand Dame.
00:14:05You'll be sorry then.
00:14:17So this is where you live?
00:14:20Yeah.
00:14:32This is the place you found for me?
00:14:34But Master, you said it had to match your current identity.
00:14:37This place is a dump.
00:14:39How can anyone live here?
00:14:40I was just worried you'd blow your cover.
00:14:46I know this place is beneath you.
00:14:48I'm so sorry to wrong you like this.
00:14:50Let's just-
00:14:51Let's just give it a good clean.
00:14:52It is actually quite spacious here.
00:14:54So it will definitely be comfortable.
00:14:56From now on, this will be our home.
00:14:57Home?
00:14:59Our home.
00:15:00This lady Clara is so virtuous and gentle.
00:15:03She's a million times better than all those ladies mother picked out for me.
00:15:08Clara.
00:15:10I don't have much to offer you right now.
00:15:13This jade pendant was left to me by my father.
00:15:16Now I want you to have it.
00:15:19You are giving me something so precious?
00:15:26Alright, don't worry.
00:15:28I'll take very good care of it.
00:15:30The Emperor actually gave away his personal dragon car pendant.
00:15:33Has he truly fallen in love with Lady Clara?
00:15:35Is he truly fallen in love with Lady Clara?
00:15:41Is he truly fallen in love with Lady Clara?
00:15:51He lived here as theomb 살도ной basketball at the Tank
00:16:19Hmmm...
00:16:32This bed is so hard.
00:16:49Ow, it's so hot.
00:16:51Clara, are you okay? Did you burn yourself?
00:16:54I'm fine, don't worry. Breakfast is ready. Eat while it's hot. I have to go out for a bit.
00:16:58Where are you going?
00:16:59Today is our post-wedding family visit. The protective charms I embroidered for my parents still need a few stitches.
00:17:04I must get some threads to finish them before we head to the manor.
00:17:06Then I'll go with you.
00:17:08Okay.
00:17:15Greetings, your majesty!
00:17:17Your majesty?
00:17:22Greetings, your...
00:17:25What's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?
00:17:29What's wrong with the emperor? Is he sick?
00:17:31Your majesty?
00:17:32Whoa, there's plenty of dirt here. No need for such a grand vow.
00:17:36What are you doing?
00:17:37Are you alright?
00:17:39I'm fine. Don't worry.
00:17:41Who are they?
00:17:42Palace matters are too messy right now. I will reveal my identity to Clara later.
00:17:46Oh, they...
00:17:47They're here for Lucas.
00:17:48Oh, right. My friends. They're here for me.
00:17:51I used to work in the palace.
00:17:52We're old acquaintances.
00:17:54Hmm.
00:17:54Oh.
00:17:55Clara, I'm gonna help Lucas with his guests. Can you buy the threads alone?
00:17:59Sure.
00:18:04Your majesty!
00:18:07Report. What's happened?
00:18:08Word came from the palace that the Empress Dowager was so worried about you that she collapsed.
00:18:13What?
00:18:13Lucas, you stay here and protect Clara.
00:18:16Yes, sire.
00:18:16The rest of you, back to the palace with me.
00:18:22Have our men prepare some lavish gifts and send them to the Shaw Manor.
00:18:25Let them be a homecoming gift from Clara.
00:18:27Understood.
00:18:27Let's go.
00:18:29Hot buns! Get them while they're hot!
00:18:31Come and have a look!
00:18:33Fine goods, great prices. Come and have a look!
00:18:37Lucas, home entertaining guests.
00:18:38I shouldn't go back and disturb him.
00:18:41My father already dislikes who Luke is.
00:18:43He'll just be humiliated if he comes along.
00:18:45I'd better go back by myself.
00:18:53They're my family, after all.
00:18:55No matter how hard it is, I have to face them.
00:18:58I should go in.
00:19:00Father, I'm home!
00:19:02Father, I'm home!
00:19:07Well, well.
00:19:11Clara, why did you come back alone?
00:19:16On a grand day like our return visit, why did you come back all by yourself?
00:19:20Don't tell me you were afraid your beggar husband would embarrass you.
00:19:23So you didn't even let him come back with you.
00:19:27He had something urgent come up.
00:19:28Lady Clara, marrying a beggar must be complete misery.
00:19:32You've gotten so thin.
00:19:34If you hadn't married that filthy beggar,
00:19:36I might have taken you as my concubine,
00:19:38saving you from falling this low.
00:19:41Bitch.
00:19:42Amos, you don't know that my sister has always preferred associating with the lower class.
00:19:45Having her here at the Miller Manor probably makes her uncomfortable.
00:19:48Do not waste your breath on me.
00:19:50I'm doing just fine.
00:19:51But what about you, Erica?
00:19:52Lately, I bet you haven't seen your husband.
00:19:54Hey!
00:19:56That damn Amos Miller.
00:19:57On our wedding night, he went out cruising.
00:19:59Now the whole town knows.
00:20:01I am utterly humiliated.
00:20:02Erica.
00:20:09Mother.
00:20:11Greetings, Father.
00:20:13Greetings, Mother.
00:20:14You're here alone?
00:20:15Have you no shame at all?
00:20:16It has been only days, yet you forgot our family etiquette.
00:20:19Lord Amos is a man of noble status, yet he personally accompanied Erica.
00:20:22What rubbish Luke's busy with, abandoning you on your wedding return.
00:20:25Don't give him too much credit.
00:20:27That filthy beggar is probably out begging on the streets as we speak.
00:20:30Father, I've brought some modest gifts.
00:20:33Someone.
00:20:36To have you visit our home in person is already a great privilege for me.
00:20:40I can't believe you've brought so much.
00:20:42Take them inside at once.
00:20:43My daughter marrying you is the greatest blessing of her life,
00:20:46unlike certain people who threw her life away on a beggar.
00:20:49But this family raised you for years.
00:20:50Did you really plan to show up empty-handed?
00:20:52Yes, Clara.
00:20:53Are you really so pathetically broke that you couldn't even afford a single return gift?
00:20:57Of course not.
00:21:00I personally embroidered these protective charms for father and mother.
00:21:04I sincerely pray that you both will stay safe and well.
00:21:12Get out!
00:21:14What worthless garbage!
00:21:15Clara, what is this thing you've made?
00:21:17A worthless piece of cloth thing you dare flaunt it to humiliate us?
00:21:21You truly are a beggar's wife.
00:21:23Even your pathetic gifts match your miserable status.
00:21:27Enough.
00:21:27That's enough.
00:21:28She's married a beggar after all.
00:21:30What decent thing could she possibly offer?
00:21:32Master!
00:21:33Master!
00:21:33Men from the palace are here with gifts.
00:21:35They saved the grand return gift from Lady Clara.
00:21:37What?
00:21:47Squire Shaw!
00:21:48Congratulations!
00:21:49Your eldest daughter must have found a very powerful lord.
00:21:53Otherwise, why would the officials order me to deliver these gifts myself?
00:21:56Well, Lewis, were these really sent from the palace?
00:21:58The head eunuch himself came to arrange this.
00:22:01How could it be fake?
00:22:02They said it was for Lady Clara.
00:22:05You must have misheard.
00:22:07Everyone in Kingston knows that Clara married a beggar.
00:22:09Unlike our Amos, his brother is the deputy chief justice.
00:22:12They must have sent these out of respect for Amos.
00:22:14Plenty of people are desperate to flatter his family.
00:22:17I just didn't expect the palace to notice us too.
00:22:19Plenty of people are desperate to flatter my family.
00:22:22Father, please accept this.
00:22:24Our Erika's truly married a fine husband.
00:22:26This grand reception and these lavish gifts really bring honor to the Shaw matter.
00:22:30I remember them saying these gifts were for Lady Clara.
00:22:33Thank you for making the trip here.
00:22:36Well, as long as it's for the Shaws, it doesn't matter.
00:22:39My mistake.
00:22:40The gifts are for Lady Erika.
00:22:42Take all of this inside.
00:22:47Clara, my husband sent homecoming gifts twice.
00:22:50Looking at all this, aren't you ashamed?
00:22:54Gifts do not matter.
00:22:56Sincerity does.
00:22:57I see nothing wrong with it.
00:22:58So you don't care about our reputation at all?
00:23:00I wish the years raised at you!
00:23:03Yet as the eldest daughter of this house, you married a beggar and disgraced us.
00:23:06And now you bring back this worthless Chuck to disgrace me.
00:23:09Don't ever come back here again!
00:23:11The Shaw family has no place for a failure like you!
00:23:18Fine.
00:23:19I'll leave then.
00:23:21Take care, Father.
00:23:22I will visit again some other day.
00:23:26In my past life, I suffered immensely because of that filthy beggar.
00:23:29Why should Clara get to leave so easily?
00:23:31Father, look at her trying to leave without a word of apology.
00:23:34So outrageous.
00:23:35She's right, Victor.
00:23:36You can't just let her leave like this.
00:23:38We don't want people gossiping behind our backs,
00:23:40saying our family has no discipline.
00:23:41Stop right there!
00:23:44You think you can just come and go as you please?
00:23:47What do you take my manor for?
00:23:49No matter what I do, Father,
00:23:51I am always wrong in your eyes.
00:23:53Leaving now will save certain people from looking at an eyesore.
00:23:56You want to leave?
00:23:57Fine.
00:23:58Not until you crawl down Crown Avenue begging for forgiveness
00:24:01and tell the whole town how you shame this family by marrying a beggar.
00:24:07Only then may you sever all ties with us.
00:24:15Greetings, your majesty.
00:24:16Greetings, your majesty.
00:24:18Mother!
00:24:20I thought she had collapsed.
00:24:22Could it be that she...
00:24:25So you do remember I'm your mother?
00:24:27All I asked was for you to choose a consort.
00:24:29Was that so much to ask?
00:24:30As the emperor,
00:24:31you actually sneaked out of the palace to fool around.
00:24:33As for choosing a consort,
00:24:35you can make the decision.
00:24:36Since you seem fine,
00:24:37I will take my leave.
00:24:38Wait!
00:24:41Your majesty,
00:24:42the official court reports have been piling up for days.
00:24:44If you don't attend to them,
00:24:45crucial state affairs will be delayed.
00:24:47Please prioritize your imperial duties.
00:24:48Once I finish these files and leave the palace,
00:24:50I should still be able to make it to the Shaw Manor in time.
00:24:53To the royal study.
00:24:55Erika makes a very fair point.
00:24:57Do as your sister says.
00:24:59Just because I married Luke,
00:25:01you have to humiliate me like this?
00:25:03You returned today without a husband or a single return gift.
00:25:06Asking you to bow and apologize is hardly asking too much.
00:25:09Erika is only looking out for our family,
00:25:11unlike you marrying a beggar and disgracing our family.
00:25:14Disgracing you?
00:25:15It's just because Erika married into a rich family
00:25:17that you indulge her every whim.
00:25:19You as ill and child,
00:25:20have I been too easy on you?
00:25:22Who taught you to say such rebellious things?
00:25:25Am I wrong?
00:25:27In your eyes,
00:25:28your daughters are nothing but pawns
00:25:29used to gain power and influence.
00:25:31How dare you?
00:25:32You completely forget your place!
00:25:37The Dragon Carp Jane Pendant!
00:25:43This is bad!
00:25:44I must inform His Majesty at once!
00:25:48Give me back my pendant!
00:25:51This is a fine-looking pendant!
00:25:53Tell me, Clara,
00:25:54where did you steal it from?
00:25:55That's from Luke!
00:25:56It's mine!
00:25:56Give it back to me now!
00:25:57That filthy beggar?
00:25:59Then there's no way!
00:26:01He must have stolen it!
00:26:02I thought a Dragon Carp Jane Pendant
00:26:04could never end up in a dump like this!
00:26:05I guess my eyes play tricks on me!
00:26:07Luke may not be as high-born as you,
00:26:09so because you were born rich,
00:26:10you think you own everything?
00:26:11Is Luke not allowed to have nice things?
00:26:13Huh!
00:26:14Treasuring a beggar's garbage
00:26:16like it's some precious prize!
00:26:17It's strange, though.
00:26:19You've been out here for so long,
00:26:20yet your husband hasn't come looking for you.
00:26:23Doesn't seem like he cares much about you.
00:26:26Give me back my pendant!
00:26:28You can have the pendant,
00:26:29but you must sever all ties with this family first.
00:26:32What?
00:26:33Father!
00:26:33Are you really going to let Erica get away with this?
00:26:36I'm your daughter, too!
00:26:38You insisted on marrying that beggar
00:26:40and humiliated my family name!
00:26:42From this moment on,
00:26:42Erica's my only daughter!
00:26:48In this life,
00:26:49I only wish to be with someone who loves me truly.
00:26:52Even a simple, poor life
00:26:54is better than enduring your cold contempt!
00:26:58If that's your choice,
00:27:00then from this day forward...
00:27:04I, Claire Shaw,
00:27:06hereby sever all ties with the Shaws!
00:27:07We are done!
00:27:13Poor filthy beggar,
00:27:15you chose to disown your own family!
00:27:17Good thing we never depended on you!
00:27:20Isn't that exactly what you wanted, Father?
00:27:22Why should I stay here and suffer?
00:27:23Hey!
00:27:27Give me the pendant!
00:27:29Not so fast!
00:27:30Someone,
00:27:31bring the hot coals from the kitchen,
00:27:32spread them on the ground!
00:27:34What are you doing?
00:27:41Greetings, Your Majesty!
00:27:44Who sent you?
00:27:45I am Wendy Zane,
00:27:47daughter of Hunter Zane,
00:27:48the Prime Minister.
00:27:48The Empress Dowager ordered me
00:27:50to attend to Your Majesty.
00:27:51I'm busy with state affairs.
00:27:52Leave.
00:27:53Your Majesty!
00:27:55Something terrible has happened!
00:27:56Lady Clara is at the Shaw Manor!
00:27:58What happened?
00:28:00What exactly happened?
00:28:01Speak!
00:28:02On her wedding return,
00:28:03the Shaws trapped it
00:28:04and humiliated her!
00:28:05They forced her to kneel!
00:28:07What?!
00:28:08Your Majesty,
00:28:09please come down!
00:28:10Summon the Imperial Guard!
00:28:11We are going to the Shaw Manor!
00:28:13Your Majesty,
00:28:14where are you going?
00:28:14The Empress Dowager said...
00:28:16Ya!
00:28:17Ah!
00:28:24Ya!
00:28:29Your life and your body
00:28:30belong to your parents.
00:28:32You want to sever ties?
00:28:33Then pay back your debt
00:28:34to them first.
00:28:35Walk across this
00:28:37and you will have your wish.
00:28:39No.
00:28:40These coals are burning
00:28:41so intensely.
00:28:42If I walk on them,
00:28:43I won't survive.
00:28:43I won't do it!
00:28:44Oh?
00:28:45I guess
00:28:46you don't want
00:28:47your precious Jade back.
00:28:49Don't throw it!
00:28:54Luke is the only person
00:28:55who truly loves me
00:28:56in this world.
00:28:57That pendant
00:28:57was left by his own parents.
00:28:58I will never let them
00:28:59destroy his only gift.
00:29:00fine.
00:29:02I'll do it.
00:29:26I'll do it.
00:29:29You've completely
00:29:30lost your mind!
00:29:31Ya!
00:29:34A worthless piece of Jade
00:29:36makes our spoiled girl
00:29:37gladly walk on burning coals.
00:29:39No wonder she was
00:29:40dumb enough
00:29:40to throw her life
00:29:41away on a beggar.
00:29:42After all,
00:29:43a beggar has nothing
00:29:44of value to offer.
00:29:45No wonder Clara
00:29:46cherishes it so much.
00:29:48I don't have much
00:29:48to offer you right now.
00:29:50This Jade pendant
00:29:50was left to me
00:29:51by my father.
00:29:52Now,
00:29:53I want you to have it.
00:30:02Luke,
00:30:03I will get that pendant back.
00:30:16She actually made it
00:30:18all the way.
00:30:23Now,
00:30:26will you give me
00:30:27my pendant back?
00:30:28You want it?
00:30:30Then you'll have
00:30:30to get it yourself.
00:30:32If you dare to take it.
00:30:34This Jade pendant
00:30:35is yours.
00:30:53You really
00:30:54treat it
00:30:54like a treasure.
00:31:15found it.
00:31:16I finally found it.
00:31:20You cherish
00:31:21your pathetic love
00:31:22for that filthy beggar
00:31:23so much.
00:31:26If you were disfigured,
00:31:27do you think
00:31:28your beloved husband
00:31:29would still want you?
00:31:30No.
00:31:31Why are you glaring
00:31:32at me like that?
00:31:33I warned you long ago
00:31:34the fate of marrying
00:31:35a beggar has only one outcome,
00:31:37to be trampled on
00:31:38by everyone.
00:31:38You go to such cruel lengths
00:31:40to torture me,
00:31:41but do you really
00:31:41think you'll win?
00:31:47What I want
00:31:48is for you
00:31:48to spend the rest
00:31:49of your life
00:31:50hiding away
00:31:50in the darkest gutters.
00:31:52Forced to watch me
00:31:53like a rat
00:31:53as I become
00:31:54the most powerful
00:31:55woman in the world.
00:32:01Master!
00:32:02Master!
00:32:03The em...
00:32:03The emperor's here.
00:32:05What did you say?
00:32:06The emperor!
00:32:24Clara!
00:32:34The emperor!
00:32:36The emperor!
00:32:38The emperor!
00:32:42Clara.
00:32:44Clara.
00:32:45I'm sorry I'm late.
00:32:47Luke.
00:32:48I didn't lose
00:32:49the jade pendant
00:32:50you gave me.
00:32:54I thought the emperor
00:32:56was coming.
00:32:56Why is it him?
00:32:58The filthy beggar!
00:32:59How can he afford
00:33:00such fine clothes?
00:33:01And look at those men!
00:33:03Aren't those the palace guards?
00:33:05Why are they following a beggar?
00:33:07Mother,
00:33:08I heard his brother
00:33:09used to work in the palace.
00:33:10Stealing a few uniforms
00:33:11would be easy.
00:33:13He must have lost face
00:33:14at the wedding last time,
00:33:15so he's here
00:33:16to put on a show.
00:33:17The palace has been
00:33:18plagued by thefts lately.
00:33:19Could it be their doing?
00:33:20Huh.
00:33:21What a joke!
00:33:22A filthy beggar
00:33:23dares to put on
00:33:24an act into my manner!
00:33:25Clara,
00:33:26look at this loser
00:33:26you married.
00:33:27Being worthless
00:33:28is one thing,
00:33:29but now,
00:33:29just for pride,
00:33:30he actually dares
00:33:31to steal from the emperor.
00:33:32If the emperor finds out,
00:33:34you will both pay
00:33:35with your lives.
00:33:36Utter foolish.
00:33:37You're asking for it.
00:33:42What?
00:33:42What do you think
00:33:43you're doing?
00:33:45Claire,
00:33:45what's wrong?
00:33:46It hurts.
00:33:58Which one of you
00:33:59did this?
00:33:59It was me.
00:34:00What about it?
00:34:01I was only trying
00:34:02to help her.
00:34:03Who knew she would
00:34:04walk on hot coals
00:34:05just for a worthless
00:34:05piece of jade?
00:34:08She must be
00:34:09completely out of her mind.
00:34:10Such an idiot.
00:34:11Shut up!
00:34:12Who do you think
00:34:12you are?
00:34:13How dare you
00:34:14raise your voice
00:34:15in front of me?
00:34:16I can mock her
00:34:16all I want.
00:34:17She chose to marry
00:34:18a good-for-nothing
00:34:18loser like you.
00:34:20Compared to me,
00:34:20you both are
00:34:21nothing but insects.
00:34:23Even if I wanted
00:34:24her dead today,
00:34:25she'd still have
00:34:26to thank me
00:34:26on her knees.
00:34:27Let's see how long
00:34:28you can keep up
00:34:28this act.
00:34:29Well,
00:34:30seize them.
00:34:33How dare you?
00:34:35Touch what is mine!
00:34:37Seize them!
00:34:37Understood.
00:34:44How dare you!
00:34:45I am Lady Miller!
00:34:46I am Lady Miller!
00:34:49Darling, help me!
00:34:51You filthy beggar!
00:34:53How dare you touch my wife!
00:34:54You must have a death wish!
00:34:57Scoundrel!
00:34:57Lord Amos is a royal relative!
00:35:00If you harm him,
00:35:00you make an enemy
00:35:01of the entire Miller family!
00:35:03So what if he's royalty?
00:35:05Anyone who harms my people
00:35:06pays with their life.
00:35:09You filthy beggar!
00:35:10You're taking this act
00:35:11too far!
00:35:12Before I lose my temper,
00:35:13let me go right now
00:35:14and I might let you live!
00:35:16You tortured Clara
00:35:17into a miserable state.
00:35:19Pressed their faces
00:35:20into the burning coals!
00:35:22No!
00:35:23Father!
00:35:24Let me go!
00:35:25Let me go!
00:35:26I'm Sirica!
00:35:27Father!
00:35:28Do something!
00:35:30You dare touch me?
00:35:31Once the High Court
00:35:32guards arrive,
00:35:33you're a dead man!
00:35:34Hold on.
00:35:36The High Court, you say?
00:35:39Scared now, are you?
00:35:41My brother is an Imperial official.
00:35:43If you harm me,
00:35:44you won't get out
00:35:45of this alive!
00:35:48Then I'd like to see
00:35:50who in the High Court
00:35:52would dare
00:35:53to indulge your arrogance.
00:35:55Do it now!
00:35:59Let go of me!
00:36:00Let me go!
00:36:00You imbecile!
00:36:02If you want to die,
00:36:03don't drag us down with you!
00:36:05Stop!
00:36:12Henry!
00:36:13Henry, save me!
00:36:16Get them!
00:36:32You mongrel!
00:36:33So you're the one
00:36:34laying your hand
00:36:34on my brother!
00:36:35Insolent!
00:36:36What if I am?
00:36:39That voice...
00:36:41You're...
00:36:46You carry quite an arrogant authority.
00:36:50Your majesty!
00:36:52Your majesty?
00:36:56Your majesty?
00:36:57This filthy beggar,
00:36:58how can that be?
00:37:01Henry,
00:37:01don't let this filthy beggar fool you.
00:37:03He's the one
00:37:04who robbed the palace
00:37:04and he used his money
00:37:05to bribe these people.
00:37:07You just started your job
00:37:08so a mistake is normal,
00:37:09but he's really just a filthy beggar.
00:37:10He can't possibly be the emperor!
00:37:12Could I really be mistaken?
00:37:14I only caught a glimpse
00:37:15of his majesty's profile once.
00:37:17Perhaps it's just
00:37:18a striking resemblance.
00:37:19The emperor would never
00:37:20be in a place like this.
00:37:21You're disgraced!
00:37:22Look at this loser you married!
00:37:23Now that you've crossed
00:37:24Lord Amos,
00:37:25let's see how you survive this!
00:37:26My lord,
00:37:27you must seek justice for us!
00:37:28This beggar and Clara
00:37:29have lost their minds
00:37:31trying to slaughter
00:37:32their own family!
00:37:33How outrageous!
00:37:34In the heart of the capital,
00:37:35how dare you act so recklessly!
00:37:36Guards!
00:37:37Drag them into the high court dungeons
00:37:39and torture them for confessions!
00:37:42Stop.
00:37:44Do you have something else to say?
00:37:46I wasn't aware
00:37:47that you were now
00:37:47Deputy Chief Justice.
00:37:49You're just a filthy beggar.
00:37:50How could you know
00:37:51about court appointments?
00:37:52The emperor's dowager
00:37:53appointed my brother.
00:37:54I bet you're sorry now,
00:37:55aren't you?
00:37:56To even manipulate
00:37:57the emperor's dowager,
00:37:58your Miller family
00:37:59truly is audacious.
00:38:01Your majesty,
00:38:02you must seek justice for me!
00:38:04The emperor left the palace
00:38:05and married
00:38:06the eldest Shaw daughter.
00:38:07Because of that woman,
00:38:08his majesty
00:38:09even lost his temper with me!
00:38:10What?
00:38:11You're saying the emperor?
00:38:13Ah!
00:38:13Actually married a common girl?
00:38:19Attendants!
00:38:20Prepare my carriage!
00:38:23How dare you!
00:38:24How dare you insult
00:38:25the emperor's dowager!
00:38:26Do you have a death wish?
00:38:27Please hear us out!
00:38:27Our family has already
00:38:28severed all ties with
00:38:30Clarice Shaw!
00:38:30What he says has
00:38:31absolutely nothing to do with us!
00:38:33My lord,
00:38:33we have always followed the rules!
00:38:35We would never dare
00:38:35disrespect royalty!
00:38:37Please clear our name!
00:38:38Yes, my lord!
00:38:39Please be merciful!
00:38:40You filthy beggar
00:38:40insulting royalty
00:38:41He has a treasonous offense!
00:38:42Execute him, my lord!
00:38:43Clarice Shaw,
00:38:44your pathetic husband
00:38:45has sealed his fate!
00:38:46No one can save you today!
00:38:47I can't let anything
00:38:49happen to Luke!
00:38:50Please spare his life!
00:38:52My husband wasn't
00:38:53thinking straight!
00:38:57Clara!
00:38:57Clara!
00:39:00I'm taking you
00:39:01to a doctor right now!
00:39:03How dare you!
00:39:04Trying to run away!
00:39:05Guards!
00:39:06Stop them!
00:39:10Anyone who gets in my way
00:39:12dies.
00:39:13Yes, sire!
00:39:26You won't get away so easily.
00:39:39Luke!
00:39:47Erica Shaw!
00:39:48How could you be so vicious?
00:39:49Luke never did anything to you!
00:39:51How could you be so ruthless?
00:39:53That filthy beggar
00:39:54dared to have me disfigured!
00:39:56There's no way
00:39:57I will ever let you walk away!
00:40:02Don't bother looking!
00:40:03Your men are too busy
00:40:04to save you now!
00:40:06You're asking for it!
00:40:09Luke!
00:40:10I'm okay!
00:40:12Just go!
00:40:13Go?
00:40:15You think he can leave?
00:40:17Why won't you just let me go?
00:40:18I have to admit
00:40:20you're so lucky, Clara!
00:40:22Even after marrying a beggar
00:40:23you still get true love!
00:40:25But the more you have it
00:40:27the more I want to destroy
00:40:28your happiness!
00:40:29This is between you and me!
00:40:30We shouldn't drag
00:40:31an innocent man into it!
00:40:33Do whatever you want to me!
00:40:35I'm begging you
00:40:36let Luke go!
00:40:41Clara!
00:40:42Clara!
00:40:43How touching!
00:40:45Even at a time like this
00:40:46you're still so devoted
00:40:47to each other
00:40:48since you two are
00:40:48so deeply in love!
00:40:50Then I don't mind
00:40:51sending you off together!
00:40:53Die!
00:40:54Die!
00:41:00The Empress Dowager
00:41:02has arrived!

00:42:08and I still choose wrong!
00:42:12Please spare my life

00:43:19the masterminds!
00:43:20Let them off this once!
00:43:21Enlighten their punishment!
00:43:24But they...

00:43:57Clara and I
00:43:58have already
00:43:58pledged our lives
00:43:59Whether you agree or not
00:44:01I will overcome
00:44:02any obstacle
00:44:03to make Clara
00:44:03my Empress
00:44:04What?

00:44:09an opportunity
00:44:10to test Clara Shaw
00:44:11If she can pass
00:44:12my test
00:44:13I will not
00:44:15stand in your way
00:44:16Thank you Mother

00:44:20you must not
00:44:21reveal your identity
00:44:22to her
00:44:24or I'll find
00:44:25plenty of ways
00:44:26to punish her
00:44:28I understand
00:44:30Her Majesty
00:44:31left the palace
00:44:31to pray
00:44:31and happened
00:44:32to pass by
00:44:32your manor
00:44:33which was how
00:44:33she saved us
00:44:34What about my family?
00:44:35Her Majesty
00:44:36ordered your sister
00:44:37and Amos
00:44:37to be flogged
00:44:38fifty times
00:44:39Amos has always
00:44:40lived a degenerate life
00:44:41so he was too weak
00:44:42and passed out
00:44:42so the Empress Dowager
00:44:44had him locked up
00:44:44Your sister was sent
00:44:45to the discipline ward
00:44:46to do hard labor
00:44:47as for your parents
00:44:48What happened
00:44:49to my parents?
00:44:51They've been exiled
00:44:55Exiled?
00:44:59I'll protect you
00:45:00from now on
00:45:03I asked Her Majesty
00:45:04for a guard position
00:45:05and she assigned you
00:45:06to the palace attendance
00:45:07We will both work
00:45:08inside the palace now
00:45:09That's wonderful
00:45:11Now that we both
00:45:12have a secure living
00:45:13we can work here
00:45:14for a few years
00:45:15and then leave
00:45:16this palace together
00:45:17and live a simple life
00:45:18All right
00:45:22Clara
00:45:22I hope you can forgive me
00:45:29This is the palace attendance
00:45:32So where do your guards stay?
00:45:34We're on patrol all the time
00:45:36We don't have a fixed post
00:45:40Don't worry
00:45:41When I'm free
00:45:42I'll make time
00:45:43to come see you
00:45:45All right
00:45:56You come to visit my office
00:45:57yet you didn't give me
00:45:58any warning
00:46:00This is the new maid
00:46:01Clara Shaw
00:46:02From now on
00:46:03I expect you
00:46:04Madam Lin
00:46:05to take extra care of her
00:46:07She runs the palace attendance
00:46:09Madam Lin
00:46:10Go to her

00:46:15I'll be sure
00:46:16to take good care
00:46:17of Lady Clara
00:46:18She's being way too polite
00:46:20I came here to work
00:46:21So why does it feel
00:46:22like I'm the master here?
00:46:24She's probably
00:46:25just a kind soul
00:46:25That's good though
00:46:26No one will dare
00:46:27mistreat you here
00:46:28Clara

00:46:41Wash
00:46:42All of these right now
00:46:43We are both servants here
00:46:45So I have no reason
00:46:46to do your laundry
00:46:47How dare you ask that?
00:46:48You stole my assignment
00:46:49forcing me to clean
00:46:50toilets instead
00:46:51Some people use
00:46:52disgusting tricks
00:46:53to get into this place
00:46:54Since you charmed
00:46:55Madam Lin
00:46:55she dumped the easiest
00:46:56chore on you
00:47:06Give that back
00:47:09The dragon carved
00:47:10jade pendant
00:47:10Only the emperor
00:47:12is allowed to wear
00:47:12Speak

00:48:07for myself
00:48:08If she knows
00:48:09who I am
00:48:10it defeats
00:48:11the purpose
00:48:13The palace rules
00:48:14are strict
00:48:14I was only gone

00:48:24Clara stole
00:48:25the emperor's
00:48:26imperial pendant
00:48:26and I caught her
00:48:27afraid she'd be
00:48:28exposed
00:48:28so she even
00:48:29attacked me
00:48:29The palace detests
00:48:30thieves above all else
00:48:32Madam Lin
00:48:32you must punish
00:48:33her severely
00:48:34Madam

00:49:10himself
00:49:10Who knows
00:49:11what other brazen
00:49:12things she'll do

00:49:16that stealing any
00:49:17royal property

00:55:28audience
00:55:38her
00:55:39time
00:55:57to
00:55:58and
00:55:59Oh, my face.
00:56:01You foolish girl.
00:56:03What did you put in this bowl?
00:56:05I got a secret remedy from a Taoist priest.
00:56:08He said eating it will rejuvenate the skin.
00:56:12I only wanted what was best for you.
00:56:14I wasn't thinking straight.
00:56:15You dared serve someone something from an unknown source?
00:56:18What on earth were you thinking?
00:56:20I'll never do it again.
00:56:22I'll never do it again.
00:56:27Thankfully, it's just an allergic reaction, not life-threatening.
00:56:30But these rashes on your face won't clear up anytime soon.
00:56:32Guards!
00:56:33Drag her away!
00:56:35Sell her up to a slave trader!
00:56:37Madam, please spare me!
00:56:46Madam, please let me try to help.
00:56:49You?
00:56:49I have studied medical texts.
00:56:51A special herbal formula might be able to soothe the rashes on your face.
00:56:55If my remedy works, I beg you to spare Jenny's life.
00:57:04The Emperor has been ignoring me for a very long time.
00:57:08Yet he finds time for the palace attendance.
00:57:11Who exactly is staying there to keep him so distracted?
00:57:16It wasn't me!
00:57:18I wouldn't dare seduce the Emperor even if my life depended on it!
00:57:23Wait, I remember now someone in the palace attendance actually has that kind of audacity!
00:57:28Clara Shaw.
00:57:30If she is led to believe that you are the one seducing the Emperor,
00:57:33let's see how you survive her wrath.
00:57:38You only need to wait 12 hours, Madam.
00:57:40The rash on your face will be gone.
00:57:44It looks a bit hideous.
00:57:46But it seems the rash has faded a bit.
00:57:49I suppose you do have some skill.
00:57:52Thank you for your kind words.
00:58:04If it weren't for you today,
00:58:06you can hit me or yell at me.
00:58:08I'll take it.
00:58:09Why would I yell at you?
00:58:12So you forgive me?
00:58:14I guess you're not so bad.
00:58:16You just have a vicious tongue.
00:58:22Your Majesty,
00:58:23I believe the Emperor's desire to marry Lady Clara is not some reckless whim.
00:58:29Lady Clara is indeed quite remarkable.
00:58:51You're the one seducing the Emperor.
00:58:54You're the one seducing the Emperor.
00:58:56What a temptress.
00:58:58No wonder you can't behave.
00:58:59It's bad enough the Emperor found someone to marry outside the palace.
00:59:03But since when?
00:59:05Do you filthy worldly servants get to have such disgusting ideas?
00:59:13When did Clara ever seduce the Emperor?
00:59:17Jenny,
00:59:19have you already forgotten how Clara treated you before?
00:59:24Clara never once started anything with me.
00:59:27You're the one looking for a fight.
00:59:32Jenny!
00:59:35Do you have any idea who I am?
00:59:37Acting so recklessly in my presence.
00:59:39Standing before you is the Prime Minister's daughter, Lady Wendy.
00:59:43She is chosen by the Empress Dowager to be Empress.
00:59:46You mindless fool.
00:59:48How dare you cross Lady Wendy?
00:59:51As the Prime Minister's daughter,
00:59:53you must be reasonable.
00:59:54I truly never did anything to seduce the Emperor.
00:59:57Please let us go.
00:59:59Let you go?
01:00:01Iris told me you not only seduced the Emperor,
01:00:04but also threw yourself at guards.
01:00:05I didn't!
01:00:07Scar her face!
01:00:16Stop!
01:00:18The palace attendants belong to the Harem.
01:00:21Since when is it your place to interfere?
01:00:24An old hag like you
01:00:26dares to raise her voice to me.
01:00:29What?
01:00:30How dare you?
01:00:31Lady Wendy,
01:00:32the harem is ruled by the Emperor and the Empress Dowager.
01:00:34Punishing servants on your own
01:00:36violates palace regulations.
01:00:37Please show some mercy, Lady Wendy.
01:00:41The Emperor and I are childhood sweethearts,
01:00:43and I am the only choice for Empress.
01:00:45This entire harm will be mine sooner or later.
01:00:48What does it matter if I destroy a worthless me?
01:00:50Ridiculous!
01:00:52You're nothing but a lowly servant yourself.
01:00:55If I don't teach you a lesson,
01:00:57you'll never learn your place.
01:00:58Hold this old hag down for me.
01:01:00Iris!
01:01:01How dare you?
01:01:05I never knew you were so wicked.
01:01:06I was completely blind about you.
01:01:19A disfigured old hag of a slave?
01:01:22Putting on royal heirs?
01:01:24You must have a death wish.
01:01:26But you still don't know what you did wrong?
01:01:29What did I do wrong?
01:01:31You can only blame your lowly birth.
01:01:34Destined to be mere servants in the palace.
01:01:37Defying your masters is asking to die.
01:01:40What?
01:01:41Bring me my whip.
01:01:44As the head of the palace attendance,
01:01:46you let your maid seduce the Emperor.
01:01:48Like master, like servant,
01:01:50your crime is unforgivable!
01:01:58Next month marks the return of our annual spring gala.
01:02:01All the high nobility of the realm will be attending.
01:02:03We must prepare flawlessly.
01:02:05Rest assured,
01:02:06I will spare no effort, your majesty.
01:02:10You insolent servant!
01:02:11How dare you to serve his majesty!
01:02:13Do you admit your guilt?
01:02:14His majesty?
01:02:15Your majesty!
01:02:17Greetings, your majesty.
01:02:18I beg you to return to the palace attendance
01:02:20and save Clara Shaw.
01:02:21What did you say?
01:02:23Clara is in danger.
01:02:31What were you doing?
01:02:34Lady Wendy is after me.
01:02:36I cannot let you be punished for absolutely no reason.
01:02:43How touching.
01:02:44Since you love playing the martyr,
01:02:46I will gladly grant your wish!
01:02:48Enough, Wendy Zane!
01:02:50I advise you not to push this too far!
01:02:52Or else...
01:02:53Still planning on royal heirs?
01:02:54You arrogant, brainless slave!
01:02:56I will teach you your place today
01:02:57on behalf of the crown!
01:02:59Stop!
01:03:04Your majesty!
01:03:06Wendy Zane,
01:03:07do you have any idea who you are striking?
01:03:09King!
01:03:10Greetings, your majesty!
01:03:12Greetings, your majesty!
01:03:14How could she be the Empress Dowager?
01:03:20Greetings, your majesty!
01:03:25How could this be?
01:03:26The Empress Dowager was merely testing you.
01:03:29But look at you.
01:03:30So arrogant and presumptuous.
01:03:31You actually dared to insult the Empress Dowager herself!
01:03:34Your majesty, I didn't mean to do it!
01:03:36I'm begging you to play with your mother on my behalf!
01:03:39Your majesty?
01:03:44I believe this is a grave matter.
01:03:45It directly insults her majesty's dignity.
01:03:47Please judge this carefully, your majesty.
01:03:49Me?
01:04:01You still refuse to admit your fault?
01:04:04I admit my fault, your majesty.
01:04:06I should never have ranted so shamelessly before you.
01:04:08None of those words reflected my true intent.
01:04:10It is all this maid's fault!
01:04:12She claimed a maid was seducing the Emperor,
01:04:14which was why I lost my temper!
01:04:16Lady Wendy, you were the one who ordered-
01:04:18If this wretched slave hadn't manipulated me,
01:04:20how could I have made such a terrible mistake?
01:04:23Your majesty, I am innocent!
01:04:26Innocent, my foot!
01:04:27You instigated us to torment Clara.
01:04:30You also spread the rumor about the Emperor.
01:04:32How dare you, Jenny!
01:04:33Kicking me while I'm down!
01:04:34That's enough!
01:04:38The maid, Iris, has spread malicious rumors
01:04:40and violated palace laws.
01:04:42Drag her out and sell her off immediately!
01:04:44Please show mercy, your majesty!
01:04:45I'm truly innocent!
01:04:47Clara Shaw!
01:04:47I saw you flirting with that young guard!
01:04:50I didn't make up any rumors!
01:04:56So, you are the eldest Shaw daughter.
01:05:10Clara!
01:05:13Luke!
01:05:14The Empress Dowager didn't punish you, right?
01:05:16Of course not.
01:05:17She wanted to discuss the Spring Gala with me.
01:05:20She asked for my opinion.
01:05:23That's a relief.
01:05:28What is it?
01:05:31Clara passed the test!
01:05:35In that case,
01:05:37can I finally tell her the truth
01:05:38and make her my Empress?
01:05:40There is no need to rush the coronation.
01:05:42The Spring Gala is next month
01:05:44and the Ministry of Rights is too busy
01:05:45to organize another grand event.
01:05:47Besides, it's a four too sudden.
01:05:50I'm worried the court officials will object.
01:05:57Then I suggest
01:05:58we let Clara
01:05:59put her in charge of the Spring Gala.
01:06:02If she manages to pull off this banquet,
01:06:04it will not only prove her worth,
01:06:06but also silence anyone
01:06:08who opposes her title.
01:06:10Empress Dowager
01:06:11wants you to run the Spring Gala.
01:06:13Me?
01:06:15But I wouldn't know where to start.
01:06:17Don't worry.
01:06:17With your talents,
01:06:18you are more than capable.
01:06:20I will back you up from the shadows.
01:06:29Move your lazy asses!
01:06:30If anyone tries to slack off,
01:06:32my whip won't show any mercy!
01:06:39Useless!
01:06:40Do you still think you're some wealthy lady?
01:06:41You're in the Discipline Ward now!
01:06:43No one slacks off on my watch!
01:06:53This is all your fault!
01:06:55Get in there!
01:06:56Get your hands off me!
01:06:57I'm the Prime Minister's daughter!
01:06:58You better show me some respect!
01:07:00The Prime Minister's daughter?
01:07:02In my past life,
01:07:03Amos was promoted by the Empress Dowager
01:07:05during the Spring Gala.
01:07:06If I can get out of this hellhole
01:07:07and ensure Amos shows up at the Spring Gala,
01:07:09we will definitely turn the tables.
01:07:15What a shithole!
01:07:16I can't believe I have to do my own laundry!
01:07:19Lady Wendy,
01:07:20I have a favor to ask.
01:07:21Ask me for help?
01:07:22And why would I help you?
01:07:25If I weren't in this mess,
01:07:27you wouldn't even be allowed to speak to me.
01:07:32My sister, Clara Shaw,
01:07:33is the reason I'm locked up here.
01:07:35If you're willing to help me escape,
01:07:37I will do anything to repay you!
01:07:40Clara Shaw?
01:07:44Very well done.
01:07:45The event schedule is crystal clear.
01:07:48You clearly put your heart into it.
01:07:52Leaving the Scala to you
01:07:53turned out to be an excellent choice.
01:07:56Your Majesty Disaster has struck!
01:07:58The Discipline Ward has caught fire!
01:07:59What?
01:08:02Lara,
01:08:04come with me immediately
01:08:05to the Discipline Ward.
01:08:16Excuse me, Nate.
01:08:17What's the situation inside?
01:08:18Fire raised the entire yard.
01:08:20Nearly half of the prisoners
01:08:21didn't make it out alive.
01:08:23But Wendy have already.
01:08:28Your Majesty.
01:08:30Greetings, Your Majesty.
01:08:32Greetings, Your Majesty.
01:08:33At least you're alive.
01:08:34At least I can face your father now.
01:08:37I have realized my mistake.
01:08:39Please spare me for my punishment.
01:08:40I swear,
01:08:41I cannot survive another day here.
01:08:44Fine.
01:08:44Given your defiant nature,
01:08:46keeping you locked up here
01:08:47is completely pointless anyway.
01:08:50I also beg Your Majesty
01:08:51to grant a reward
01:08:52to Erica Shaw.
01:08:53I only survived
01:08:54this horrific fire
01:08:54because she risked her life
01:08:55to save me.
01:08:56I recall Erica
01:08:58and Clara are sisters.
01:08:59Clara,
01:09:00how should I reward her?
01:09:01Erica is indeed my sister.
01:09:03But we were never close
01:09:05growing up.
01:09:06Our bond is quite shallow.
01:09:07I shouldn't interfere
01:09:08with her fate.
01:09:08I leave it entirely
01:09:09to your judgment.
01:09:11Your Majesty,
01:09:12I believe Erica
01:09:13has a good heart.
01:09:14Her past crimes
01:09:15might be a misunderstanding.
01:09:17Very well.
01:09:18She's been in a discipline ward
01:09:20for quite some time now.
01:09:21I suppose she has changed a little.
01:09:23Then she may leave
01:09:24the discipline ward for now.
01:09:26Thank you for your mercy,
01:09:27Your Majesty.
01:09:29Wendy Zane,
01:09:30I may have waived
01:09:31your hard labor,
01:09:32but I never said
01:09:33you are free.
01:09:34Next month,
01:09:35we finalize a political marriage
01:09:36with the Northern Steppers
01:09:37you shall go.
01:09:39What?
01:09:40A political marriage?
01:09:42You refuse?
01:09:43Or perhaps you'd prefer
01:09:44to run the discipline ward?
01:09:45No.
01:09:46Your Majesty,
01:09:47I will obey.
01:09:50Prepare my carriage.
01:09:52Your Majesty,
01:09:53I would like a word
01:09:54with my sister.
01:09:58Clara Shaw,
01:10:00you didn't just ruin
01:10:01our parents
01:10:01and the Miller family.
01:10:02You also made me suffer
01:10:03like a dog
01:10:04in that living hell.
01:10:05I'll make you pay
01:10:06for everything.
01:10:07It seems you've already
01:10:08forgotten the agonizing
01:10:09pain from your wounds.
01:10:11If you hadn't
01:10:11constantly crossed me,
01:10:12you would never
01:10:13have ended up like this.
01:10:14In here,
01:10:15I thought you'd
01:10:15actually become a phoenix.
01:10:17Turns out you're
01:10:18still just a pheasant.
01:10:19It seems.
01:10:20The Emperor
01:10:21hasn't given you
01:10:21a title yet.
01:10:22What are you implying?
01:10:26Cut the act!
01:10:28Weren't you with the-
01:10:29Lady Clara,
01:10:30Lady Clara,
01:10:30the Empress Dowager
01:10:32wants you gone
01:10:32at once.
01:10:33She still has
01:10:33instructions for you.
01:10:39Clara Shaw,
01:10:40let's see how long
01:10:41you can keep this up.
01:10:43Please just let me out,
01:10:44Henry.
01:10:44Being locked up
01:10:45in this manor all day
01:10:46will drive me insane
01:10:47sooner or later.
01:10:48How dare you
01:10:48even complain!
01:10:49If you and Erica
01:10:50hadn't been so utterly stupid,
01:10:52we wouldn't have
01:10:52offended the Emperor.
01:10:53I wouldn't have
01:10:54lost my title either.
01:10:55If you ask me,
01:10:56it's all that bitch
01:10:57Erica's fault!
01:10:58Amos!
01:10:59What are you doing back?
01:11:01The Empress Dowager
01:11:01has waived my punishment.
01:11:03I'm out of the
01:11:03Discipline Ward.
01:11:04You ruined our family.
01:11:05You've got some nerve.
01:11:07Henry,
01:11:07the person who truly
01:11:08ruined you is Clara.
01:11:09Stop blaming each other.
01:11:11We should find a way
01:11:11to crush Clara.
01:11:12Clara Shaw?
01:11:13She's probably already
01:11:15become an Imperial Consort.
01:11:16How can we possibly
01:11:17fight her?
01:11:17In the Discipline Ward,
01:11:19I saw her once.
01:11:20Clara Shaw is just
01:11:21a lowly palismaine now.
01:11:22She's no threat at all.
01:11:24A palismaine?
01:11:25Did the Emperor
01:11:26marry her on a
01:11:26reckless whim?
01:11:28If His Majesty
01:11:29truly loved her,
01:11:30he would never
01:11:30let her work as a slave.
01:11:32I already have a plan.
01:11:33The Spring Gala
01:11:33is early next month.
01:11:34All the Royals and Nobles
01:11:36will be invited
01:11:36to the palace to attend.
01:11:37This is our only chance.
01:11:39The Spring Gala?
01:11:39Our family is also
01:11:40on the guest list.
01:11:41Does that mean
01:11:41I can attend too?
01:11:44Those attending the gala
01:11:45are all high nobility.
01:11:47No one must make
01:11:47any mistakes.
01:11:48Oh, stop worrying.
01:11:49Every single detail
01:11:50has been verified
01:11:51by you several times.
01:11:52Everything will be fine.
01:11:53I hope so.
01:12:03Mmm, this is delicious.
01:12:05Eat all you want.
01:12:06The palace has plenty.
01:12:07It's a good thing
01:12:08it is held in such
01:12:09a secluded location
01:12:09with no patrols around.
01:12:11Otherwise,
01:12:11we'd never be able
01:12:12to meet out in the open
01:12:13like this.
01:12:14Clara.
01:12:18When this banquet is over,
01:12:20I have something
01:12:21to tell you.
01:12:22All right.
01:12:23Then I'll wait
01:12:24for you here.
01:12:30Look over there, Amos.
01:12:35It's Clara Shaw.
01:12:37She's actually fooling around
01:12:39with a guard.
01:12:42It's your shift today.
01:12:44You should go now.
01:12:47Wait for me.
01:12:56You truly can't survive
01:12:57without a man.
01:13:01Lady Clara,
01:13:02have you forgotten
01:13:03your brother-in-law?
01:13:05What's this?
01:13:06Abandoned by the Emperor?
01:13:08So you threw yourself
01:13:09out of guard?
01:13:10This is the Royal Palace.
01:13:12You won't be coddled here.
01:13:13This isn't the Shaw Manor.
01:13:14Your every move is watched
01:13:15by the Emperor
01:13:16and the Empress Dowager.
01:13:17You two were just released
01:13:19and you've forgotten
01:13:20your lesson?
01:13:21Amos and I
01:13:22are esteemed guests
01:13:23invited to this banquet.
01:13:24But you are nothing
01:13:25but a worthless maid.
01:13:27If the nobility is pleased,
01:13:28you get a scrap.
01:13:29If they're not,
01:13:30no one gives a damn
01:13:31if you drop dead.
01:13:33What do you think
01:13:34you're doing?
01:13:40Erica Shaw!
01:13:41Haven't you hurt me
01:13:42enough already?
01:13:43Okay.
01:13:45As long as you're miserable,
01:13:47I'm happy.
01:13:50You only survived
01:13:51back at the manor
01:13:52because of your dumb luck.
01:13:54Now absolutely
01:13:55no one is here
01:13:56to protect you.
01:13:58Greetings,
01:13:58your majesty.
01:14:08Greetings,
01:14:08your majesty.
01:14:12Clara,
01:14:13thank you for your hard work
01:14:15for the palace banquet.
01:14:20It was my duty.
01:14:22It was no trouble at all.
01:14:24Your majesty,
01:14:25I have a matter to report.
01:14:27Speak.
01:14:28I wish to denounce Clara
01:14:29for fooling around
01:14:30with a guard.
01:14:31I saw it with my own eyes.
01:14:32Clara and the guard
01:14:33were completely inseparable.
01:14:34They even tried to hide it
01:14:35when they got caught.
01:14:36They're this brazen.
01:14:37Behind closed doors,
01:14:38who knows what scandals
01:14:39they commit.
01:14:42I admit I have been
01:14:43seeing a guard,
01:14:44but we did nothing
01:14:45as disgraceful as they claim.
01:14:47Before we entered the palace,
01:14:48we had already fallen
01:14:49for each other.
01:14:49Our meetings here
01:14:50are rare and brief.
01:14:51If you weren't guilty,
01:14:52why did you scramble
01:14:53to leave the moment
01:14:54you saw us?
01:14:55Affairs are a capital offense.
01:14:56You can put me to death,
01:14:58but I beg you to show mercy
01:14:59and spare the guard's life.
01:15:01I was the one
01:15:01who asked to see him.
01:15:06Ultimately,
01:15:07it's clear that
01:15:08neither of you
01:15:08is innocent.
01:15:10I request your majesty
01:15:12to seize that guard
01:15:13and execute them both.
01:15:14Please execute both of them
01:15:16to restore order
01:15:17to the harem.
01:15:21The palace regulations
01:15:23forbid any involvement
01:15:24between maids and guards.
01:15:25However,
01:15:26Clara put her entire heart
01:15:27into organizing this banquet.
01:15:29Her service outweighs her fault,
01:15:30which is why
01:15:31I shall waive her punishment.
01:15:36Clara,
01:15:37you may go back
01:15:38to your duties.
01:15:39Yes.
01:15:48She got away with it again.
01:15:50How is Clara Shaw so lucky?
01:15:52First,
01:15:52the emperor was protecting her
01:15:53and now she's favored
01:15:54by the empress dowager.
01:15:55She was even given
01:15:56full charge of the spring gala.
01:15:57Since Clara is running
01:15:58this entire spring gala,
01:16:00it's easier for us.
01:16:01Your majesty,
01:16:02the banquet is not quite.
01:16:03Where are you going?
01:16:03The banquet is starting soon.
01:16:05Go change.
01:16:05The banquet awaits.
01:16:06In second thought,
01:16:07I truly feel I must tell Clara
01:16:08the whole truth
01:16:09before it's too late.
01:16:10Go quickly and fetch Clara.
01:16:12Tell her to meet me
01:16:12where we just were.
01:16:13What?
01:16:17What is it?
01:16:17You've done a fantastic job.
01:16:19The nobility is full of praise
01:16:20for how wonderfully
01:16:21the scala was running.
01:16:22Even the empress dowager
01:16:23looked immensely pleased.
01:16:24That's good.
01:16:25Someone is waiting
01:16:26for you in the courtyard.
01:16:27Go on, hurry.
01:16:28Who is it?
01:16:32Assassin!
01:16:32Protect the empress dowager!
01:16:35What happened inside?
01:16:36An assassin disguised
01:16:37as a dancer
01:16:38attacked the empress dowager.
01:16:39Fortunately,
01:16:40Lord Eamless
01:16:40took a blade
01:16:41for her majesty.
01:16:42The assassin got away.
01:16:43What?
01:16:46Take her away.
01:16:49What are you doing?
01:16:50The empress dowager
01:16:51was attacked.
01:16:52We are ordered
01:16:53to arrest you
01:16:53and bring you
01:16:54to the high court for trial.
01:17:04I'm Clara Shaw.
01:17:06Greetings, Prime Minister.
01:17:07Prime Minister?
01:17:07She was the one
01:17:08in full charge
01:17:09of this entire gala.
01:17:10The palace is heavily guarded.
01:17:11Ordinary people
01:17:12cannot possibly enter.
01:17:13Clara must be conspiring
01:17:14with the assassins.
01:17:15The one who ruined
01:17:16Wendy's life
01:17:16is also this Clara Shaw.
01:17:18How dare you?
01:17:20You pled to the assassins
01:17:21to murder the empress dowager.
01:17:22What is your treasonous motive?
01:17:24Every performer
01:17:24was thoroughly vetted.
01:17:26How the assassin got in,
01:17:27I truly don't know.
01:17:28Please, give me some time.
01:17:29I'll find out.
01:17:30Of course you wouldn't know.
01:17:31Right before the gala,
01:17:32you were sneaking
01:17:32around with the guard.
01:17:34You obviously never cared
01:17:35about her majesty's safety at all.
01:17:36What?
01:17:37Is this true?
01:17:38I can testify to that.
01:17:39That guard is still
01:17:40in the courtyard.
01:17:41He does!
01:17:41Seize that guard immediately!
01:17:43I demand an interrogation!
01:17:51Is that him?
01:17:53That's him exactly.
01:18:02Prime Minister,
01:18:03we have brought the man.
01:18:06Luke.
01:18:09You admit your guilt.
01:18:10I honestly knew
01:18:11nothing about it.
01:18:12Please, Prime Minister,
01:18:13just give me some time.
01:18:14I will get to the bottom of this.
01:18:16You organized this gala
01:18:17with your own hands.
01:18:19Trying to wash
01:18:19your hands of it now?
01:18:20Too late.
01:18:21The outside assassins
01:18:22infiltrated the banquet
01:18:23as dancers.
01:18:24This was clearly premediated.
01:18:26Regardless of whether
01:18:27she planted them or not.
01:18:28He compromised
01:18:28her majesty's safety.
01:18:29For that,
01:18:30she must die.
01:18:30I never did!
01:18:31Prime Minister,
01:18:32please sentence them both.
01:18:34Please, Prime Minister.
01:18:36The security breach
01:18:37is my responsibility.
01:18:38Please do not
01:18:38implicate anyone else.
01:18:40If my husband
01:18:40hadn't reacted quickly
01:18:41and taken a blade
01:18:42for her majesty,
01:18:42not even ten of your heads
01:18:44would be enough
01:18:44to save you.
01:18:45I...
01:18:46Enough!
01:18:47Clara Shaw fooled around
01:18:48with a guard
01:18:49and risked her majesty's safety.
01:18:51Execute them both.
01:18:52Prime Minister,
01:18:53I beg you to
01:18:53retract the order.
01:18:56Luke.
01:18:58It's all my fault
01:18:59I got you into this.
01:19:01Clara Shaw.
01:19:02Let's see you get
01:19:03out of this one.
01:19:09I'd like to see
01:19:10who dares to touch her.
01:19:13Your...
01:19:14Your majesty!
01:19:16Long live your majesty!
01:19:24How could this be?
01:19:26Clara,
01:19:26I'm sorry.
01:19:28I lied to you.
01:19:30Greetings,
01:19:31your majesty!
01:19:32Long live the emperor!
01:19:35Clara, I...
01:19:36Your majesty!
01:19:37What on earth is going on?!
01:19:39How dare you!
01:19:40You blindly trust
01:19:41a one-sided story,
01:19:42jump to conclusions,
01:19:43and sentence
01:19:43an innocent soul to death.
01:19:45With actions like these,
01:19:46how do you deserve
01:19:46to serve the crown?
01:19:48If I'm not mistaken,
01:19:50arresting me here
01:19:50was your idea,
01:19:51wasn't it?
01:19:52Seeing the Empress Tower
01:19:53drew in peril,
01:19:54I acted out of pure desperation.
01:19:55I had no idea
01:19:56the man with Clara
01:19:57was indeed your majesty.
01:19:58Please forgive me,
01:19:59your majesty.
01:19:59I would never dare deceive you.
01:20:01My absolute loyalty
01:20:02to you is absolute...
01:20:03You're always working
01:20:04against Clara.
01:20:05If I weren't standing here today,
01:20:06you would have succeeded.
01:20:07That's not true.
01:20:08I never meant to harm Clara.
01:20:10I was merely terrified
01:20:11for the Empress Tower
01:20:12to your safety,
01:20:13which was why
01:20:13I lost my composure.
01:20:14Prime Minister,
01:20:15you know this.
01:20:15I truly didn't...
01:20:16That's enough, Erica.
01:20:17Don't say another word.
01:20:19Your majesty,
01:20:20the most important thing
01:20:20right now
01:20:21is handling this
01:20:22assassination attempt.
01:20:23I request your judgment
01:20:24to punish Clara Shaw.
01:20:25The truth hasn't been
01:20:26uncovered yet.
01:20:27What makes you so sure
01:20:28it was Clara?
01:20:29As the individual
01:20:30in charge of the Street Gala,
01:20:31Clara allowed assassins
01:20:33to infiltrate the palace
01:20:34and strike the Empress Tower
01:20:35Her crime is punishable
01:20:36by death.
01:20:37Please decree immediately
01:20:38to throw her to the high court
01:20:39for severe interrogation.
01:20:40The Prime Minister is right.
01:20:42If my husband
01:20:42hadn't been here today,
01:20:43the Empress Tower
01:20:44might not have survived.
01:20:45Your majesty,
01:20:46my own safety
01:20:46is not important.
01:20:47But if Clara Shaw
01:20:48is left unpunished,
01:20:49who will secure the palace?
01:20:51Should such a horror
01:20:52strike again,
01:20:53I beg you to execute
01:20:54Clara Shaw.
01:20:56Amos Miller,
01:20:57look at you.
01:20:57You actually dare
01:20:58to force my hand.
01:21:01What if I can provide
01:21:02proof that Clara
01:21:03is innocent?
01:21:04Then what crime
01:21:05will you be guilty of?
01:21:06That's impossible.
01:21:11That's impossible.
01:21:13Hunter Zane,
01:21:14I'm asking you a question.
01:21:18If I have
01:21:19wrongly accused
01:21:20Clara Shaw today,
01:21:21then I will gladly
01:21:23accept the same punishment.
01:21:25Very well.
01:21:26Guards,
01:21:27bring him in.
01:21:34Your majesty is wise.
01:21:35By your imperial decree,
01:21:37I planted spies.
01:21:38The assassin's been caught.
01:21:40Mercy, your majesty.
01:21:41The plot against
01:21:42Empress Dowager
01:21:42was masterminded
01:21:43by Erika and Amos.
01:21:45I was forced to do it.
01:21:46What?
01:21:47This is...
01:21:49It's all over.
01:21:53Hunter,
01:21:54don't think that I am
01:21:55blind to the fact
01:21:55that you only did this
01:21:56to avenge your daughter,
01:21:57Wendy.
01:21:58Since you wanted
01:21:58Clara dead,
01:21:59I shall grant you
01:21:59the same fate.
01:22:00Guards,
01:22:01take him away.
01:22:02Your majesty,
01:22:03I have served this empire
01:22:04faithfully for decades.
01:22:06Your majesty,
01:22:06how can you treat me
01:22:07like this?
01:22:08As for the rest of you,
01:22:09you blindly trusted
01:22:10a one-sided story,
01:22:11jumped to conclusions,
01:22:12and implicated the innocent.
01:22:13How do you deserve
01:22:14to serve the crown?
01:22:14Your majesty,
01:22:15we were wrong.
01:22:16You are all docked
01:22:17three months' pay.
01:22:17If this happens again,
01:22:18I will show no mercy.
01:22:20Thank you for your mercy,
01:22:21your majesty.
01:22:22Now,
01:22:22as for the two of you...
01:22:23Mercy, your majesty.
01:22:24It was her terrible idea.
01:22:26You're lying.
01:22:27Your majesty,
01:22:27I was only jealous
01:22:28of my sister Clara.
01:22:29I never meant to harm
01:22:30the Empress Dowager.
01:22:31The assassination flaw
01:22:32was all Amos' idea.
01:22:33Even taking the blade
01:22:34for her was a stage performance.
01:22:35You witch,
01:22:36how dare you sell me out?
01:22:37That's enough.
01:22:38The ringleaders,
01:22:39Amos and Erika,
01:22:40must be executed immediately.
01:22:42Lock the performer
01:22:43in the high court
01:22:43until sentencing.
01:22:45Mercy,
01:22:45your majesty,
01:22:46mercy,
01:22:46your majesty,
01:22:47mercy!
01:22:49Wait!
01:22:58Your majesty,
01:22:59I would like to ask you
01:23:00to spare Erika from execution.
01:23:01Why is that?
01:23:02She has tried to harm me repeatedly.
01:23:05If she gets to die a quick death,
01:23:07it would be far too easy on her.
01:23:08Larisha,
01:23:09how could you do this to me?
01:23:10I hate you!
01:23:11If it weren't for you,
01:23:12all of this should have been mine!
01:23:16You're wrong.
01:23:17The one who ruined your life
01:23:18wasn't me.
01:23:19It was yourself.
01:23:20You've ruined me!
01:23:21Your fate today
01:23:21is entirely your own doing.
01:23:23Very well.
01:23:24Erika shall be stripped
01:23:25to a common slave,
01:23:26exiled to the southern marshes,
01:23:27and banned from the capital forever.
01:23:29I won't leave!
01:23:30I refuse to go there!
01:23:31I am supposed to be
01:23:32a title lady!
01:23:33I am supposed to be
01:23:34the most powerful woman
01:23:35in the world!
01:23:38Clara.
01:23:39So what's your real name?
01:23:42Lucian Hale.
01:23:44Lucian Hale.
01:23:45Now that the guilty
01:23:46have been punished,
01:23:48your majesties,
01:23:49you two are finally
01:23:50meant to be.
01:23:51Your majesties?
01:23:54From this day forward,
01:23:55I crown you
01:23:57as my empress.
01:24:16Let the grand coronation
01:24:18begin!
01:24:24Let the grand coronation begin!
01:24:34Long live the emperor!
01:24:38You may all rise.
01:24:43Clara,
01:24:44from this day on
01:24:45you are my wife.
01:24:46I am dissolving
01:24:46the royal court
01:24:47and this harem
01:24:48shall have only one ruler.
01:24:49That ruler is you,
01:24:50my empress,
01:24:51Clara Shaw.
