The Love Lasts Two Minds (Past Life and Life / Liang Shi Huan / Happiness Over Two Lifetimes / 两世欢)

Younger Sister, are you all right?

Younger Sister, hang in there.

We'll arrive at Zhaozhou soon.

- Older Sister! - Assassins! Protect our lady!

Older Sister!

Watch out, My Lady!

Prince Yong's pregnant Consort Jing

on route to Zhaozhou to see her family, was killed halfway there.

She gave birth to a son before she died and named him Jing Ci.

Zhixia, you stole Mrs. Yuan's daughter?

Five years ago, that woman killed My Lady.

Today, I'll kill her daughter,

as a sacrifice for My Lady!

Young Master?!

Aunt Zhixia, please don't kill her.

Jing Ci.

Do you even know who she is?

Aunt Zhixia, she is an innocent baby.

Let me take care of her.

You mean you want her to stay with us?

I could use the company.

So, let's keep her around.

The wind is howling outside,

and you're still crying at this hour.

Let's name you Feng Mianwan.

A boy and a girl who'd have been enemies instead came to

live under the same roof

for 18 years.

And so began a love lasting two minds.

Jing Ci, Zhaozhou is weak compared to Yong and Ji States.

In last month's war between Yong and Ji, Ji was victorious.

They will send General Li Yuan here,

hoping we can unite through marriage.

So I've been thinking... who should be the bride?

Father, although it is a smart move, you could leave yourself

exposed, or even lose the whole game.

This doesn't seem like you.

This is the move those officials

want me to make.

This move will burn our bridges.

Your Majesty! Your Majesty!

Please make a decision soon!

Can't I enjoy a game of Go?

Jing Ci, I don't want to burn any bridges.

Your Majesty!

Aren't you a bit mistaken about the situation now?

Although Yong lost, their core is intact.

Although they can't fight Ji now,

they can still destroy Zhaozhou easily.

We can first win the favor of Ji's envoy, General Li Yuan,

and gradually develop good relations with them.

Do you think Yong will give you the time

to gradually befriend them?

What do you mean?

Do you really think Emperor Yong can't predict your plans?

I bet before Ji's envoy arrives, Yong's envoy is already on his way.

Impossible.

Yong just suffered a big blow.

In such a short time, how could they think of Zhaozhou?

General Li!

- What's the matter? - Yong sent an envoy to Zhaozhou.

They're on their way now.

Xiaofeng, how dare you laugh at me?

You think I can't catch that bird?

I'll get you and make you into stew.

I'll let you go.

Feng Mianwan!

What are you doing?

You're making so much noise.

Aunt Zhixia, Master Jing Ci said he wanted chicken soup for dinner.

Is it he who wants it or you who wants it?

Don't forget who you are.

You're just his maid.

The young master always tolerates you too much.

I'm sorry, Aunt.

I won't let Young Master do the cooking.

I'll cook by myself, serve it to him after it's done,

and to you as well.

Is your soup even edible?

Keep it for yourself.

Yes.

Go. Just go!

Sorry for scaring you like that.

This wretched bird was asking for it.

I'll cook it up now.

Dangshen, wolfberry,

and what else?

Young Master.

Didn't I say I can do it myself?

You've been really busy recently, so I wanted to make soup for you.

Dangshen... but no ginger.

Did you mistake Dangshen for ginger?

No wonder I thought I forgot something. It was the ginger.

I'll go slice some up.

Watch your fingers.

I have learned kung fu from you for years.

I can cut a man into pieces,

let alone some ginger.

Cut a man?

When you go out, please don't tell others

that I'm your teacher.

That'd be a disgrace for me.

When can I stop worrying about you?

I know you care about me and always watch out for me.

Why would you think that?

It's okay that you can't cook.

You cut yourself just slicing ginger.

Young Master, try the chicken soup I made for you.

If you like it, perhaps Aunt Zhixia will stop saying

I'm a good-for-nothing.

The cook isn't in today?

I like preparing food for you.

But I don't like the food you prepare.

What do we do?

I put my heart into it.

You really don't like it?

Your heart... I really can't accept it.

Try it yourself.

Although I have many shortcomings,

you always tolerate me and care for me.

I want to stay with you forever,

and keep you company.

Zesheng.

Father.

It's still quite cold today. You should stay in your room.

Did you go see Jing Ci?

Not yet.

Father, you've been busy with state affairs lately,

so I wanted to check on you first.

It's only proper, right?

You're always so thoughtful.

I heard people talking about the marriage.

In terms of the bride, Your Majesty, you need to be cautious.

Father, do you want me to be the bride?

I see Jing Ci as my own son.

If you two could tie the knot, that'd be marvelous.

But when I brought it up,

he didn't seem interested.

Miss Mianwan.

You're free as I expected.

What can I do for you, Steward Wei?

Aunt Zhixia just told me that

Master Jing Ci is not in.

Since we're understaffed now, do you think you can help us?

Miss Mianwan, they say you make the best tea.

Why don't you make some tea for our guest?

Okay.

I'm Yong's envoy, Zhao Yan. Greetings, Your Majesty.

Thank you for traveling so far to talk about peace.

This is my duty and my mission.

I've been discussing this with the officials.

I hope there can be peace.

Indeed.

Your Majesty, Yong wants to ally with Zhaozhou.

I wonder if Your Majesty has decided?

It's a tough choice for me, but I've always wanted to avoid war.

I hope you can relay this to Emperor Yong.

Yes.

Qingli?

What's wrong?

Nothing.

I just think that maid really looks like a friend of mine.

That maid serves my adopted son, Jing Ci.

She's good at making tea.

Good tea indeed.

My Lady. Aunt. It's done.

Feng Mianwan served the tea?

Yes. I observed from a distance.

That envoy from Yong drank it.

The tea... Feng Mianwan served it in front of Father.

Once it's clear he was poisoned, the blame will fall on her.

Even if Jing Ci comes back, he won't be able to clear her name.

Before Jing Ci returns, your father will have her executed.

What about the maid who added the poison?

She's already been taken care of.

That's good.
