Princess Silver (白发)

" Princess Silver "

Episode 3

Have you seen this before?

Try to recall the details.

This belonged to the deceased. It was found here.

But the content is missing.

I really have no idea.

Let's go.

Your Highness, are you all right?

Xiao Sha, this is Long Yue.

Come with me.

There is a secret passage to the alley.

It's safer for Your Highness to use this exit.

Sir Zhao dropped this pouch just now.

If the authority comes for investigation,

be cautious.

Yes, I will handle this matter with cautions.

You should know by now this is no simple matter.

I understand now why Sir Zhao insisted on meeting you.

The evidence he was holding...

would only be useful when they are in your hands, Brother.

Only you can go up against the force behind the case.

But sadly, Sir Zhao is killed.

We need to find more information on that lady.

Wait, Brother.

I thought you are not interested in women.

I noticed just now you had your eyes on her.

What's wrong? Are you having feelings for her?

This is very unusual.

Everyone is waiting in the dining hall.

Your Highness, please present yourself at the hall.

What are you doing?

I apologize for making it such a fuss for you.

But I don't have much of an appetite.

Go without me.

Enjoy yourself with the foods heartily.

Yes, Your Highness.

Your Highness, I was keeping watch outside the room.

I never saw you coming in. How did you get in here?

I was so scared just now.

I have Xiao Sha with me, I have my ways.

My mother passed away when I was four years old.

But Lady Yun took pity on me.

She brought me to the palace and raised me there.

I still remember the days I was haunted by nightmares.

I couldn't fall asleep.

It was Lady Yun that kept me company all the time.

She played me the song of a vessel flute until I fell asleep.

For me,

Lady Yun is like a mother to me.

Brother.

I know the very sight of me was a nuisance for you.

You felt like I took Lady Yun from you.

You kept ignoring me.

But when someone picked on me,

the first person that stood up for me...

is none other but you.

Just because you are bringing up the memories...

doesn't mean I will help with this investigation.

Brother, the culprit is no normal killer.

Their identities and background,

the authorities have no records on them.

Are we going to let Sir Zhao die in vain?

Brother, for the sake of Lady Yun,

we can just...

Did I say something wrong again?

You have been following me for years.

You should know well not to overstep.

These are not the matter we should be discussing.

I...

I apologize, Brother.

Owl.

You could have been soaring in the endless sky.

Why did you choose to come back to this palace?

Your Highness.

This is the evidence of rank-selling from...

the Crown Prince and Minister of Personnel.

Xiao Sha.

-Your Highness. -Do you know...

what kind of a person the Crown Prince is?

I heard he is ambitious, cruel and petty.

He is not easy to befriend.

We need to be cautious with people like him.

Yes.

Right.

I am sure you know me well before I lost my memories.

His Majesty brought you out to the hut sometimes.

I was always there.

When did you first met me?

I think it's after His Majesty's coronation.

I picked you up from the Cold Harem.

Was that the first time His Majesty met me?

I don't think so.

So where did he first met me?

Well...

I am not sure either.

I may be His Majesty's personal bodyguard,

but I can't be around him all the time.

You may go now.

Your Highness, there is an invitation from the palace.

The Empress will hold a ball three days from now.

Your Highness are invited.

There is also a list of guests that will be attending.

Please, have a look.

Very well.

Please reply to Her Majesty for me.

I will be at the ball on time.

Yes, I shall go now.

Your Highness.

Your Highness, Prince Li's name is on the list.

Her Majesty is aiming to matchmake you and Prince Li?

But why are so many other strangers invited as well?

Xiao Sha, do you know the names on this list?

These are princes that are yet to be married.

Matchmaking me with Prince Li?

It might as well be a blind date for me and the princes.

Your Highness, maybe His Majesty thought Prince Li refuses to marry?

Is that why they are holding this blind date?

Wait, what do they take us for?

It's not like anyone can marry a princess.

Your Highness, this ball is held by the Empress.

I cannot enter the inner palace.

Please, watch your back.

If Prince Li is not around,

I doubt the other would dare to disrespect me.

Why wouldn't Prince Li be there?

His name is on the list.

But he might not attend the ball.

Princess!

-Stop following me, okay? -Princess!

You wouldn't go to the lake with me.

You are not interested in flower viewing either.

Princess, do you think I don't deserve you?

I simple don't want to be with you.

Can you please stop bothering me?

Princess!

Princess! Stop!

Who is that?

Your Highness.

Elder son of Prince Qing He and Princess Zhao Yun.

You should know, Princess Zhao Yun grew up without parents.

She has no siblings either.

So she is living with her uncle for the time being.

You have nothing to be so arrogant about.

You are just an orphan that lives under other's care.

You should be grateful I am even laying my eyes on you.

I am warning you, let go of me!

I am letting you go. Try me!

I will tell Brother Wu You and let him finish you!

You are bringing up Prince Li now?

But he never attends events like this.

You are not going to see him.

How dare you push me!

Stop right there!

Sister, save me!

You Highness, this is Princess Rong Le from Qi.

Scram!

I thought who is here.

It's the hideous Princess of Qi.

No wonder she is so nosy.

I heard Prince Li abandoned you.

So you want one of us to marry you instead.

Fat chance.

Listen, even if I am not going to marry anyone,

I would never marry someone that is dumped and hideous.

I thought only Prince Li behaves in this manner.

I never thought the elder son of Prince Qing He is bold as well.

I can say whatever I want!

I am taking off that mask to show your hideous look!

Nicely done, Princess Rong Le! He deserved this!

Brother Wu You, you are here.

Prince Li?

What did you say just now?

Nothing, I said nothing.

I said...

if Prince Li doesn't like this woman,

I would never marry her.

If this is the woman my brother likes,

-you would marry her? -No!

No, what I meant was...

I won't marry her whether Prince Li likes her or not.

You might as well be an eunuch then.

No!

Get lost.

-Guards, take him away. -Yes.

I am here by the order of the Empress.

-Get up! -You can't take me by force!

-You can't do this to me! -Prince Qing He got a son at old age.

He spoils his son a lot.

-Let go of me! -He lets him do anything.

He is even bold enough to cause trouble here.

He should have known his place here.

I am glad Brother Wu You is here.

Otherwise Princess Rong Le would have been caught up in this.

Speaking of you,

you know he is a scoundrel, why did you mess with him?

I didn't mess with him.

He kept bothering me.

If I were to have martial art skill like Princess Rong Le,

I would have beaten him to a pulp.
