Alluring Woman

An abnormal sign.

Spirit.

The offering we received this year

is lesser than last year.

Exactly.

Everyone in court knows that money makes things easier.

Except for Su Hu. He is leading the Earl of the West and his people

to publicly oppose us.

If this continues,

things will get worse for us every year.

Enough.

Isn't the daughter of Su Hu

entering the palace soon?

How mean.

He is not paying you bribes

and you people are making his daughter enter the palace to serve the King.

If the King happens to favour Daji

and she turns against you two,

then we'll see what can you do.

The King holds the Selection annually.

He has countless concubines.

How would he favour Daji exclusively?

Gunjuan is right.

You can't just barge in wherever you like. There are no spirits here.

The lords are resting.

You are a mere mortal.

If you ever saw a spirit,

you would have been scared to death.

Jiang Ziya,

why are you catching spirits in the middle of the night?

Lord You.

Lord Fei.

You are still a lower magnate in charge of etiquette.

It's the middle of the night. Why on earth are you catching spirits?

Lord Fei, there's something you don't know.

There is a spirit...

in this premise.

Am I a spirit?

Yes.

I am a spirit?

I am a spirit.

I'm saying that

she is a spirit.

She is a spirit indeed.

She's not only a spirit,

she is also seductive.

Get out of my sight!

Zi Ya,

I have some business to settle with Lord You.

Leave us.

I am sorry for disturbing you.

I shall take my leave.

It's still not leaving.

You old geezer.

You have been chasing me for the entire night.

I was just meditating on my own.

I didn't cause anybody any harm.

To kill demons and eliminate evil spirits.

To enforce justice on behalf of Heaven.

You don't even have a lotus flower on your head

and you wish to eliminate me?

Do you think you are Daluo Golden Immortal?

Celestial soldiers, descend and get into formation.

Go.

Demon exorcism hand seal.

Please let me go.

I have been meditating for a thousand years. It has not been easy.

Spit out your spiritual pill

and I will offer you a chance to be a fox.

Thunder exorcism.

A horrendous illusion.

Open.

Heaven and Earth separated. Yin and yang distinguished.

Quickly!

Thousand years of your meditation

should have helped you achieve transcendence.

But instead of that,

you chose to go to the mortal world and cause trouble.

Do not blame me for eliminating you.

I, Jiang Ziya bows to the King.

I went hunting for animals

while you went hunting for spirits. Both of us did not attend the court today.

The evil spirits are bringing harm to the mortal world.

I have to do something.

Earl of the West, Jichang.

Yes, Your Majesty.

This fox knows that it's going to die.

Its eyes are tearing up like a human does.

Let me ask you,

who is the evil one?

The spirit or the human?

Your Majesty,

there are good and evil human beings.

This spirit

is not entirely evil.

You know the way of Liu Yao Divination,

try it on this fox spirit.

If it shows good omen, let it go.

If it is bad, kill it.

Your Majesty, the omen is ambiguous.

It is neither right or wrong.

Only cause and consequence.

Should we let it go?

Or should we not?

The cause and consequence are decided by Heaven.

I...

I do not know.

Go.

You don't but I do.

Let it go.

I want to see

what will this cause lead to.

You'd better watch yourself.

I am under the order of the King

to escort the daughter of Su Hu from Jizhou,

Daji to enter the palace. We are passing by this province.

We have been waiting for your arrival.

It's too windy out here.

Do have some rest in our stay.

Beauties bring misfortune.

It's so cold.

It's such a big storm.

Of course, it would be cold.

No.

The wind is so cold that it penetrates my bones.

I'm shivering from inside.

What is this?

If you don't wish to have this face of yours,

let me have it then.

Human.

We've reached Zhaoge.

Here.

Over here.

Your Majesty,

this beauty here is Daji.

The daughter of Su Hu from Jizhou.

She has a beautiful face.

Didn't Su Hu mention that

his manor has no beauty?

He cares about his daughter more as he gets older.

He didn't want her to marry far away, so it's understandable.

He is being so petty.

It is her honour to be able to serve the King.

The sister of King Wucheng, Huang Yingxuan

is entering to meet the King.

Yingxuan is here.

I have told your brother numerous times.

I have been intending to have you enter the palace

to deepen our allegiance.

But your brother always refused, saying that you are still young.

But now,

you have turned out to be such a beauty.

Thank you, Your Majesty.

I persuaded King Wucheng

to have her participate in the Selection this time.

Or else,

he would have refused as usual.

Just like Su Hu.

They are protective of their family.

King Wucheng comes from a lineage of loyal officials.

Do not simply pass your judgements.

From now on, Shouxian Palace

belongs to you.

I will grant you the title as...

The Lady of the West Palace.

Thank you, Your Majesty.

Your Majesty, well...

What about Daji?

For the time being, this beauty will stay at Wenyi Court.

You may all leave now.

What's wrong?

Did you marry me

just because of my brother?

If that is the case,

what will you do?

From today onwards,

you will always be in my heart.

My only wish is that

I am also the only one in your heart.

You will be in my heart.

And I will be in yours.

I saw you in Xi Garden.

It seems you are well acquainted with Lord Fei and Lord You.

I lived poorly when I was a human being.

I meditated for so many years,

it would be such a waste

if I do not enjoy my time in the mortal world.

Both of the lords are being followed around by a spirit.

Just the thought of is terrifying.

You are the one who should be afraid.

Look at the couple in Shouxian Palace,

they are having the time of their life together.

Look at you.

Alone in your room.

Talking to a spirit.

Tell me. Why are you here?

I am here to help.

You are just a nobody.

How can you help me?

I can help you to kill, to win favours
