Joy of Life (庆余年)

Lord Xin, we'll follow your will.

Don't do that. Don't just follow my will.

Lord Xin, please. - Don't!

Lord Xin, please. - I can't make the call here.

This is too much of a coincidence.

He said they changed their schedule.

They changed their schedule?

Because of that, they bumped into me?

Your Highness, although your carriage

represents the honor of your kingdom,

in my opinion,

we'll be a family anyway.

You don't need to care about this.

We can discuss this.

Your Highness should decide

whether we make way or not.

As a member of Qi's royalty,

my words and behavior represent Qi's reputation.

I can be aggrieved

but the might of Qi cannot be humiliated.

I won't make way!

You won't?

I did my best.

Then... What about Prince Cheng Ru?

Why don't you ask him to wait?

He is the prince.

She is his consort.

Lord Xin.

Why don't you ask the Department of Rites to be prepared?

Let's depart!

I, Fan Xian, greet Your Highness.

I've heard your name.

I'm humbled.

How daring of you

to take a prince's path.

However, you are also quite foolish.

Your Highness,

I didn't want to do that

but I was forced to.

How so?

I am weak.

I've come to the South

and don't feel acclimatized.

Prince Cheng Ru, are you

making me wait outside the city gates

and not allow me to enter?

Your Highness,

that was why I'm forced to do this.

You are quite courageous.

Why should I panic

about your family matters?

What if I'm forcing you to make way?

Then, I'll have to apologize to Your Highness

by dying.

I want to enter the city soon.

It's not Lord Fan's fault.

She's quite bold as well.

Fan Xian,

do you think I dare not kill you?

I'm sure there's nothing that you're afraid of doing.

The horses are startled!

Make way! Everyone, make way!

The horses are startled, make way!

Gao Da, protect Lord Fan!

You're capable.

Your Highness, you are too polite.

The horses were startled. We should help manage the situation.

The horse is dead!

Hurry!

Hurry!

That's... Gao Da, you...

I don't think so. I didn't use my blade.

How did the horse die then?

There was a stampede.

How could I stop it if I didn't use some strength?

You...

I just came back from the battle, and you killed my horse.

Lord Fan, you are amazing indeed.

I led an army to battle for years.

I didn't expect the imperial court to welcome us in this way.

This is an accident. - Since you are Wan Er's future husband,

I will leave this matter alone.

Give this man to me.

We can compensate you with a horse.

Gao Da.

Fan Xian!

Think twice.

Lord Fan, it's not worth it. - Shut up!

I will take responsibility of his mistake.

I gave the order.

There's no need to trouble Lord Fan.

His Highness, the crown prince, is here!

Greetings, Your Highness!

I, Fan Xian, greet Your Highness.

You are one of my own. Spare the formalities.

Cheng Ru.

Greetings, Your Highness.

You are my elder brother.

How can you bow to me?

You've been battling out there for years.

You've lost weight. - It's fine.

Being out there makes me happy.

I didn't feel like coming back

if it wasn't for the imperial edict.

You must come back.

Do you know how much I miss you?

Cheng Ru.

Give me a hug.

You're already home. Why wouldn't you enter the city?

It's not that I didn't want to enter.

Someone was blocking my way.

Who dares to block you?

Well...

You again?

Do you know that blocking my brother is a serious crime?

I'm not that daring.

Her Highness from Northern Qi is also with us.

It was a long journey and she is not acclimatized to the land.

She wants to rest in the city soon. Right, Your Highness?

It's my order indeed!

Your Highness, calm down.

Just sit calmly in the cart.

I will pay for the dying warhorse.

It's not cheap! - I...

As a member of Qi's royalty,

I should be able to pay for it.

You are richer than me then.

I can't afford it.

The money was given to my mother.

How much does it cost?

You just need to tell me.

All right.

I'll look for you alone later.

Cheng Ru.

The princess

is your future consort.

My future sister-in-law.

Fan Xian is troubled

because he was in between you two.

Of course. If you want to vent your anger,

I will teach him a lesson for you as your younger brother.

Since Your Highness said that,

I should let this matter go.

Yes. Don't lower yourself to their level.

You've not returned for a long time.

This should be your first meeting.

Let me formally introduce both of you.

This is the young talent of the Qi Kingdom,

Fan Xian.

Greetings, Your Highness.

I know him. Wan Er's husband.

Yes.

He is also helping the President Chen now.

The chief inspector of the Overwatch Council.

How mighty.

Cheng Ru,

Wan Er is like our younger sister.

Why don't we

spare your future brother-in-law for Wan Er's sake?

Do you really think

I got angry because my way was blocked?

Why did you get angry then?

A marriage should be serious.

However,

Father said the one who marries Wan Er

will take over the fortunes of the treasury.

After that, he appeared.

Is he marrying Wan Er

or the limitless fortune?

Naturally, it's for Wan Er. - Anyone would say that.

His Majesty insisted on including the treasury.

I didn't want it but I couldn't go against an imperial edict.

Father's edict

was muddled indeed.

Although both of you have never met,

I'm sure both of you can become good friends

with my understanding of both of your personalities.

It's getting late.

Cheng Ze and Cheng Ping

are still waiting for you inside.

Why don't we speak inside?

Your Highness,

who should enter the city first?

You came at the right time.

I know.

You should make a decision, Your Highness.

Cheng Ze,

is Cheng Ru going to confront the convoy?

Are we not going to stop them?

We are here to welcome them

and not to stop a fight.

Why did His Highness go there?

He is different.

Who will he help?

Him?

He will help anyone

and not help anyone.

It's tough for him.

Living alone is tough.

They are coming.
