Good Bye My Princess (Dong Gong / 东宫)

Block! Block! Block!

Hurry and block me! Block me!

That side!

No!

Hurry.

Take-Take it away.

Don't laugh anymore.

Stop laughing!

I will stop.

I won't laugh.

Li Chengyin, stop laughing!

Take it away. Take it away.

I...

Who told you to laugh?!

Do not harm His HIghness the Crown Prince!

- Get lost! Yongniang, move out of the way. - Don't harm him!

A"Du, drag Yongniang away!

A'Du, don't drag me!

- I'll let you laugh! - Don't pull me! Crown Princess Consort!

- You're still laughing? You're not allowed to laugh! - Don't harm the Crown Prince! Be careful!

A"Du, let me in!

Laughing again? You're not allowed to laugh!

If you keep laughing, I will have A'Du come over here and kill you!

Don't touch me. Don't touch me!

- Ah Du! Li Chengyin! - You can't catch me!

Give it back to me!

Come, come, come. If you catch me, then I will give it to you.

- Hand it back to me! - You can't reach it!

- You can't reach it! - Give it back to me!

If you can reach it, I'll give it to you!

- Give it back to me! - You can't reach it!

- What are you doing, you! - Return it to me!

- A'Du, come save me! - Quickly drag her away!

A'Du!

- A'Du, you cannot go in. The two of them are doing what a husband and wife should be doing. - A'Du!

Li Chengyin, I'm going all out with you!

A'Du!

A'Du, if you go in, then kill me.

Today's affair must not be made known.

What affair... cannot be said?

Kiss me.

Why do I have to kiss you again?

If you kiss me, then I will not tell anyone. Come.

If not because I was afraid that the two countries would go to war, people would be plunged into misery,

that blood would flow like a river,

and bones would be like a mountain, I'll endure this.

What is wrong with you?

You can leave now.

I can leave?

Yes.

Yongniang, I cannot live anymore!

Crown Princess Consort!

Crown Princess Consort! You are not wearing shoes, Crown Princess Consort!

- Crown Princess Consort! - Crown Princess Consort!

Crown Princess Consort, run no more! You are not wearing shoes!

- Crown Princess Consort! Crown Princess Consort! - Run slower!

Crown Princess Consort!

- Crown Princess Consort! - Crown Princess Consort, put on your shoes!

Crown Princess Consort!

- What is going on here? - What happened with Crown Princess Consort?

Crown Princess Consort!

Reporting to Crown Princess Consort. The Crown Prince has sent someone to send something.

Send something?

His Imperial Highness said that he was momentarily impatient and tore Crown Princess Consort's belt.

He feels very apologetic.

So, he specifically made up for it with a mandarin duck silk ribbon.

His Highness also said that he was originally going to personally gift this to Crown Princess Consort,

but he was too exhausted and was sweating.

He was afraid of catching a cold, so he did not come.

His Highness also said that he will not tell anyone what happened.

Crown Princess Consort, do not worry.

I...

Thank you, Your Imperial Highness.

Crown Princess Consort, look.

Yongniang, you are still smiling?!

Does everyone in the Eastern Palace now know that I came out of Li Chengyin's bedchambers with messy clothes?

- Yes, Crown Princess Consort. - I...

This is all your fault! It was you who wanted me to go there yesterday!

Crown Princess Consort, you are tired from last night. I will have someone stew a bowl of ginseng soup for you to drink.

This is a conspiracy. A conspiracy!

His Imperial Highness finally has a change of heart. The infinite light, Buddha.

Madam Zhao must have bewitched His Highness.

Look! Upon locking Madam Zhao up, Crown Princess Consort and Crown Prince are suddenly getting along very well.

I know right. Our Crown Princess Consort is such a beauty.

It's totally unacceptable that she's not favored by His Imperial Highness.

That's right, that's right. You did not see Crown Princess Consort's expression when she saw the mandarin duck silk ribbon today.

Her face was red from blushing, and she was so shy.

If it were me, I would be shy, too.

His Imperial Highness, too, asking someone to send such an item over in broad daylight...

That's right. I saw it, too.

That is not what actually happened!

My face was red because I was angry. And our clothes were messy because we fought with each other!

It was not what you thought it was!

Crown Princess Consort, forgive our offenses! I should die!

Crown Princess Consort!

These are the things I know.

This crown princess consort has gotten what she wants now.

She's even going around saying that this was against her will.

- Is that true? - Of course.

I think that it must be because she saw you had suffered a setback, and the crown prince was sick,

so she went to seduce the crown prince.

His Imperial Highness... Could you have forgotten about me in such a short time?

Related Lady of Excellence, His Highness got sick because of you.

When the crown prince recovers from his illness, he will definitely find a way to let you out.

At that point, let us see if that crown princess consort will still matter.

There are four edifying behavioral characteristics for women: the first is womanly virtue,

the second is womanly speech, the third is womanly manners,

and the fourth is womanly merit.

Refined and gentle, chaste, with moral principles,

have shame, speaks and acts with propriety: those are the womanly virtues.

One must frequently wash her clothes, only wear cleaned and properly dried ones,

always take a bath and dress appropriately: that is womanly manners.

If womanly virtues aren't manifested and your womanly manners are disordered, that is being dishonorable.

Crown Princess Consort, do you understand that

you are the crown princess consort, the legal mistress of the Eastern Palace.

You are a model of this country. The crown prince is young and rash.

You should be correcting him from the side, and not join him in his wild actions.

Not just our royal family, even a wife of a commoner

should understand self-restraint.

Not that I didn't exercise self-restraint, it was Li Chengyin who—

The crown prince is still sick.

Why do you not understand how to refuse him?

If he doesn't rest well and contract a more serious illness, how can we take it?

You will become the future empress.

You are supposed to be the role model as you take charge of the inner palace.

How will you have people willingly submit to you in the future?

We did not... did not do that.

You may rise.

What I am doing is for your good. If this was made known publicly, it would sound terrible.

The Central Plains is different from Xi State.

Flippantly saying a phrase is like a dagger, especially in the palace.

These rumors and slanderous words can kill people.

How annoying.

You all must properly care for and watch over Crown Princess Consort. The crown prince is still sick.

Crown Princess Consort is young and has numerous affairs to attend to.

Do not allow her to serve soup and medicine to the crown prince anymore.

Have Crown Princess Consort copy "Lessons for Women" ten times.

I'm copying "Lessons for Women" again? Can't there be anything new?

You want something new? Then copy it twenty times.

Prepare paper and ink.

Yes.

I am so mad. I now know that this is Li Chengyin's trap!

What mandarin duck silk ribbon? This is a white silk ribbon! (symbolizes death)

- Crown— - And having me copy "Lessons for Women" ten times, is this not wanting me to die?

Crown Princess Consort, don't get angry. The crown prince is still sick, so it's unlikely he had thought that thoroughly.

You should just hurry and copy now. Or else, you will not be able to finish copying this ten times today.

Oh... it's twenty times.

Your Imperial Highness, the empress has given a decree.

I know. You don't need to worry.

Send this fresh soup and rice in.

Your Imperial Highness, I always make sure to bring the commoner Zhao food on time.

The empress has ordered me to.

This is my Eastern Palace.

Your Imperial Highness, please leave.

His Imperial Highness has personally looked after you

and sent you a couple of additional dishes.

Send them in.

His Imperial Highness came?

I heard His Highness fell sick. Is he better now?

I have to go visit him!

It's better that you understand your status well. There are people that will take care of His Imperial Highness the Crown Prince.

You should just stay here and take your punishment in peace.

My Lady! My Lady...

My Lady...

My Lady...

My Lady...

My Lady...

Come.

Quick!

General Pei.

Crown Princess Consort, a lot of things have happened in the palace lately.

It's better that you don't leave the palace.

Who said I'm leaving the palace?

I just can't sleep so I'm taking a little walk.

General Pei, you also know,

the empress had me copy books all day and didn't allow me to see Li Chengyin.

I'm bored to death.

If I don't go out to take a breather, I am going to go crazy!

Just let me leave for a short while. Is that okay?

Crown Princess Consort, the crown prince has given orders—

Li Chengyin is still sick. He won't know.

If you are still worried, come with me.

I haven't eaten lunch yet.

Sir, just enjoy your drinks slowly. Call me if you need anything else.

Mi Luo!

I had a feeling you would come this morning. I'd waited for you until the afternoon.

Why are you coming just now?

Let me tell you that I feel more alive now that I've seen you.

Where's Gu Jian?

Him? I don't know why but he appears like a god

and disappears like a ghost these past two days. I don't where he is either.

I prepared two jars of good wine for you.

Good food, good wine, bring them all!

Okay!

Meat!

You play, you play, you play!

Why would I have you play? Help me give it to that other person.

Wow, he can play the hichiriki, too.

What time is it, Shi'en?

It's already 5:00 a.m., Your Imperial Highness. It will be daybreak soon.
