General and I (A Lonesome Fragrance Waiting to Be Appreciated / 孤芳不自赏)

I'd like to find you a burial ground.

You loved being in nature.

There should be flowers around you all year round

and far away from the gloom of the world.

No man or beast could disturb you from your dream.

She's roamed about all her life.

I wish for her to rest well.

Sir, what would you like to order?

Your Highness.

If you come across a shoe store on your way home

buy a pair for me.

Sir.

How many pairs of embroidered shoes like these do you have?

How many pairs do you need?

My wife is going away on a long journey.

I'd like to get her a few more pairs so that she can travel with ease.

Your mother is still eating.

Are you hungry?

Nanny.

Why don't you take Ze Qing to bed first?

Yes, Madam.

Let's go! Let's go back to your room.

Let's go.

You haven't eaten much these days.

Your body won't be able to take it if this goes on.

Have a bite to eat.

General.

Was I too hard on him?

I can empathize with you.

Miss Bai died so tragically.

Who else in this world but you would stand up for her?

This is the only thing you can do for her as her best friend.

However, as a man

I could tell just how much agony Chu Bei Jie is in.

Their love was met with great difficulty.

I do think that he has done his very best already.

I don't say this to persuade you to forgive Chu Bei Jie.

It's just that since it has ended as such...

I'm afraid that he'll only spend the rest of his life in regret.

My dear, don't keep making it even worse for him.

General. Madam.

Someone has sent things over.

I'm the owner of a candle shop in town.

A customer ordered 800 pairs of candles to be delivered to this manor.

In addition, he'd like me to pass on a message to Madam.

Please light these candles after sunset

to brighten up the way home for the deceased.

It must be him.

We should ask him over tomorrow.

He came all the way here.

He's quite pitiful now that I think about it.

All right.

I'll bring him back here tomorrow.

Ping Ting.

We met because of the zither.

Since I married into Liang State

it's been years since you last heard me play the zither.

Tonight, the night is beautiful with the candlelight.

I'll play you a song as your requiem here with my husband.

Ping Ting.

When you were alive, you had to wander from place to place.

There are so many routes in this world.

Ping Ting.

You must remember your way home.

You mustn't set out thinking that you have no home to return to.

My dear.

Should we wait for a while longer?

What is there to wait for?

However devoted he might claim to be

it's nothing more than 800 pairs of candles.

He actually disappeared at such a time.

I even thought of forgiving him.

My husband, let's send Ping Ting on her way.

Let's not miss the auspicious hour.

All right.

Chief General.

What brings you here?

We received Chief General's letter and learned of Miss Bai's death.

We then made our way here quickly.

If it hadn't been for Miss Bai during our battle with Jin State

all our brothers here would have long been dead in the wild now.

Who knew that before we could even repay Miss Bai...

she is already...

We're here to see Miss Bai off.

See Miss Bai off!

See Miss Bai off!

What is he doing here?

You sent him a letter?

I never did.

In Mount East country house, we went through life and death!

Never will I dare forget it!

Chu Mo Ran!

I'm here to see Princess Consort off!

See Princess Consort off!

See Miss Bai off!

See Miss Bai off!

[Tomb of Bai Ping Ting. Friend, Yang Feng]

[Tomb of Bai Ping Ting. Friend, Yang Feng]

Ping Ting.

That day on my way home

I wanted to buy you a pair of embroidered shoes.

You would have liked them.

Who knew that I'd lose them on the way back?

But look.

I've bought you so many pairs now.

It's just that however many pairs of shoes

can never bring you back to me again.

From now on, I will take the last name Chu.

As for my guilt, I shall make it up to you with the rest of my life.

We swear upon the moon. Never to betray one another.

Do you still remember we once swore upon the moon

to never betray one another?

What does it mean not to betray one another?

I think that when a couple faces great adversity

they mustn't forsake each other.

When they face separation, only death will part them.

Ping Ting.

Ping Ting.

Your Highness, this was sent from Prime Minister's Manor.

Please read it in person.

Read it out loud.

Yes.

"Bai Ping Ting was found dead in Pine Mountain Range."

Bai Ping Ting was by no means a mildly talented woman.

She was also a highly virtuous lady.

What a pity.

Her existence was a mistake.

This world can't tolerate her.

She has caused Prince Consort such pain for half of his lifetime.

It's best to suffer now and get it over with.

Since she's left in Pine Mountain forever

I have nothing to worry about anymore.

Order Prime Minister to release the news.

It's about time to make Prince Consort focus on what he really should.

Yes.

Dong Zhuo.

Tell me. Would she hate me?

I know you think that she surely hated me.

I didn't, Young Master.

Ping Ting wouldn't hate you.

It hasn't been easy for me either.

Who could have made it until this day easily?

Young Master.

This zither...

Do you want me to put it away?

Leave it there.

That zither is all I have left of her.

Greetings to Young Master.
