Follow Your Heart (2024) s01e03 Episode Script

[Follow Your Heart]
[Episode 3]
We've worked together
in Lanna Village.
Why are you still doing this to me?
Do you have some
special fetish?
Do you need treatment?
Why did you tie me up?
I'm talking to you.
Where are we going?
Back to Heman.
Heman?
Again?
You're so eager to meet General Nan.
Are you gonna use me as a pawn?
You know a lot about Zornia,
want to meet General Nan,
and even let me burn
the Zornia field.
Are you
from another faction
smuggling Zornia?
Shut up.
Don't associate me
with that thing.
I'm relieved then.
Zornia's rampant despite multiple bans.
Even His Majesty sent a general
to guard Heman
to prevent its import.
Unfortunately, His Majesty sent the wrong person.
Do you think
General Nan owns that Zornia field
in Lanna Village?
If we go back to Heman,
we'll be caught!
Don't worry.
I'll keep you safe.
Easier said than done.
I don't believe it.
It's untied.
Did he untie me on purpose?
Should I run away or not?
I have to go back to find the antidote.
Instead of taking the risk alone,
it's safer to be
with this guy.
Big Bro.
Look.
I'm wanted now.
Is it wise to just
walk back like this?
What if I run into a constable
or bounty hunter?
What do you want to do?
[Posthouse]
Waiter.
Please come in.
Get me two rooms.
Two meat and two vegetable dishes, no wine.
Coming
right up!
Thank you.
Don't you drink?
I rarely see men who don't drink.
That means you haven't seen
enough men.
Why are you looking at me?
I'm taking
your advice
to look at men.
You were so worried,
yet you can joke with me now.
I can't escape anyway.
Might as well take it easy.
Besides,
didn't you say
you'll keep me safe?
You trust everything I say?
How can a martial artist
be so careless?
You don't understand.
If you can't
roam the martial world fearlessly,
you might as well hide in
a safe haven.
Martial artists should be
more open-minded.
We'll
be friends today.
As for tomorrow,
we'll see.
Are you really not going to tell me?
Tell you what?
Since you wanted to arrest me,
why did you let me go
at the shabby temple?
Why do you think I let you go?
Is it because
you can't recognize me?
Come on.
No!
Xinbai, you're awake.
Xinbai.
Who are you?
I'm your mother.
Xinbai!
Don't come over.
What's wrong?
I'm your mother.
Xinbai!
Duke hit his head
and blood stasis pressured his brain,
damaging the area
for facial recognition.
He's now face-blind.
You haven't told me yet.
Sometimes, there's no logic
behind one's actions.
Things are just done
on a whim.
You can't even lie.
Forget it.
Yan Nanxing.
Why don't you tell me
how you offended
General Nan?
The dishes are here.
The dishes are all here.
Please enjoy.
I have to explain it sooner or later.
Let's test this excuse
on him first.
Here's the thing.
The person in Her Ladyship's room that day
wasn't a man,
but a woman.
She's my senior.
I was missing
some herbs,
so I asked
my senior to help me.
As I went to prepare
the medicine,
only my senior
and Lady Gaya
were left in the room,
causing a misunderstanding.
General's Residence is heavily guarded.
You think all the guards are blind?
This is a secret that can't be told.
Don't you know?
My senior was born
with a masculine face
and sturdy physique.
She doesn't like being seen.
We are a trio of traveling doctors,
but outsiders only know about
my mother
and I.
While
being chased by soldiers, she fell into the water.
She told me all about
how you protected her.
Yan Nanxing.
You're full of nonsense
and so absurd.
It was clearly a man
who fell into the water.
Why insist it's a woman?
Burning the Zornia field
seems satisfying
but is in fact troublesome.
Impulsive, reckless, and cunning.
You are
really untrustworthy.
I didn't know
I'm so likeable.
What?
We've only spent a few days together
but you've described me
so precisely.
You must fancy me.
You're hopeless.
Don't deny it.
Please come in.
Bring me good wine and dishes!
Sure.
It’s so lively in Heman City.
What's the gossip?
Tell us now!
Didn't you see
the wanted posters
throughout the city?
I did!
I've met the mother and daughter
on the wanted poster.
I heard her daughter's pretty.
Yes, she is.
A loose woman too. Unusual!
Loose?
Has she no shame?
Tell us
what's going on.
I heard
the mother and daughter rented a house,
where
different men
come and go daily.
Old, middle-aged, and young;
all sorts!
Just super messy!
Are you serious?
Not only that,
some even saw a child.
A child?
Even a child?
There's no father,
so it must be
a bastard!
Bastard!
Yummy!
That's nothing.
To be wanted,
they must've committed many sins.
It could be deception
or even murder and robbery!
It's so complicated?
Why didn't that loose woman
come to us?
Who is it?
Who attacked me?
What a foul mouth.
A disgrace to mankind.
Is it your business?
You must be one of
her clients.
Cut the crap!
Attack!
I was wrong. I'm sorry.
Go!
Hurry!
Hurry and go!
Eat up.
[Posthouse]
Here.
What's wrong?
Are you down too?
It's just nonsense.
Nonsense.
Is gossiping fun?
Spreading nonsense!
They even
said they
saw me with many men.
Are they
blind?
I have a bastard kid?
You're the bastards!
Slandering others behind
their backs.
Why don't you write a novel?
Jerks.
Bastards!
Do you think I want this life?
Do you think I want
to change every day?
Who doesn't want
a stable life?
Who doesn't want to
hide at home with family
and make friends happily?
I want to make friends too.
What did I do wrong?
I clearly
did nothing wrong.
Why are the Heavens doing this to me?
I'm trying my best.
I'm doing so much to help others.
Why can't you
be nicer to me?
Why?
Leave.
Go find your mother and senior.
Leave?
You're letting me go?
You believe me?
No.
Then why?
I don't believe your words,
but I believe
you're not a villain
and have
your own difficulties.
But I've changed my mind.
Anyway,
you said you can protect me.
I'll go back to Heman with you
and explain things
to that General Nan.
Being wanted isn't fun
anyway.
Risking it to go to Heman
just to explain things?
Like I'd believe that.
Let me ask you.
Why did you insist on entering his residence
that day?
Let's not pry into
each other's business.
Let's just be work partners.
That General Nan
is so strange.
Even if it's to find your antidote,
don't risk it
by going
to Heman.
What do you mean?
His wine
doesn't get you drunk!
Isn't he an alcoholic?
That's why something's off.
I know what you want.
I can help you.
Do you suspect
the Zornia field in Lanna Village
belonged to General Nan?
I have two pieces
of info
about him.
If you
promise to take me back
and protect me,
I'll tell you.
To show my sincerity,
I'll tell you one now.
Everyone knows
Nan Jifeng's an alcoholic.
Actually, he's never been drunk.
Something's off with his wine.
Isn't that
some valuable info?
The other's even more important.
If you send me back,
I'll tell you.
Yan Nanxing.
Are you afraid of death
or not?
I am.
But there are things I find
scarier than death
and more important
than living.
Since we're
both headed to General's Residence,
let's cooperate.
I don't trust you.
But
what you just said about
things scarier
than death
and more important
than living
interests me.
So it's a deal?
Remember,
it's a cooperation.
I'm not your pawn.
Fine.
I'm your pawn,
happy?
Let's set off.
Let's go.
Come on.
Don't just stand there.
Get on the boat.
[Heman]
When you see the general,
just explain things.
If they don't believe you,
I'll vouch for you.
You have to protect me.
It doesn't matter.
You're lucky anyway.
That won't do.
I'm a coward.
You agreed to cooperate.
You can't ignore me.
It's you again!
Give me this wanted criminal.
Tomorrow at the back door of General's Residence,
you'll get your reward.
Lieutenant General Li?
Where do you want to take her?
General's Residence's
prison.
Legal trials
must be conducted
before a suspect
becomes a prisoner.
She should first be
detained by the local government
for interrogation by the general.
You want to arrest her
without any evidence.
Where's the respect for the law?
-Know your place
-Stop!
Did you just say
I have no respect for the law?
I dare not.
I was
defending
your prestige.
Your men making illegitimate arrests
doesn't reflect well on you,
don't you think?
Then I have to thank you.
Imprisoning someone is
illegal.
But it should be legal for me to
invite you to my residence.
[General's Residence]
That's what happened.
I ask for your discretion.
It sounds strange,
but it makes sense.
General.
What do you think?
If you think it makes sense,
then it does.
Then why did you run away
[Righteous and Fearless]
instead of explaining it?
Your Ladyship, unlike you,
there are some people
who are unreasonable.
I was afraid of complicating things.
That's true.
Since it’s a misunderstanding,
Dr. Yan,
where are your senior and mother?
They left
to tend to other patients.
So they asked me
come explain to you two.
Even if I'm wronged,
I've to finish up
my medical treatments.
That’s great.
You're such
an ethical doctor.
Not long
after you left,
your medicine
really worked.
Putting up wanted posters
was too hasty.
But General said
not to remove them
as they could bring
you back.
Dr. Yan.
Please don't take it to heart.
Why would I?
Besides,
the gentleman who
escorted me back treated me so well.
Am I right?
Really?
Your surname is
Xi.
Xi?
It's a rare surname.
When I was young,
I heard of
a famous constable
with this surname.
Times have changed.
How can an ordinary
tea merchant like me
compare to
such a big shot?
You've sent several
visit requests, right?
Yes.
I see.
What do
you want?
Tea doesn't sell well in Central Plain.
A friend
tipped me off about
getting your help
to do business in Heman.
What friend?
What business?
What help?
My friend
I can't reveal their identity.
As for the business
A business exclusive to Heman,
of course.
As for the help
It's up to you.
Thank you, General.
Hold your horses.
Didn't your friend
mention my temper?
To do business and associate with me,
pass this round first.
We'll talk when we've drunk enough.
Everyone knows
Nan Jifeng's an alcoholic.
Actually, he's never been drunk.
Something's off with his wine.
You won't drink?
Then take your greeting gift
and don't come back.
I'll risk my life to accompany you.
General.
This wine
i-is good.
Good? Then drink it.
Keep drinking.
Drink!
I haven't had enough.
Let's go. You're drunk.
Where do you think you're going?
Bye, General,
-Your Ladyship.
-General.
Where are you going? Keep drinking!
Remember our deal.
Careful.
Keep drinking.
Practice and come back tomorrow.
I haven't had enough!
Why did you drink so much?
Yan Nanxing.
Don't fall into the river!
Careful.
Yan Nanxing.
Yan Nanxing.
I'm here.
Yan Nanxing.
What's wrong with you?
Yan Nanxing.
What is it?
Yan Nanxing!
What are you doing?
Are you trying to
take advantage of me?
I don't trust you,
as I can't see you clearly.
I really can't.
What?
These are your eyebrows.
Your eyes.
Your nose.
Your mouth.
Yan Nanxing.
What do you look like?
I really can't see clearly.
I
So I
I don't dare believe you.
Forget it.
It's not my first kiss.
Just think of it as a dog's bite.
You're bleeding.
I-I'm I'm fine.
You're bleeding so much.
It must hurt.
Why are you so careless?
Look at you.
Dr. Yan.
Excuse me.
Carry on.
I
Yan Nanxing.
Here.
Sit down.
Slowly.
Don't move.
It's loose.
Let me wrap it for you.
Does it hurt?
No.
Really?
That's good.
Remember,
I wrapped this for you.
My head hurts.
Yan Nanxing.
I want to watch fireworks.
Watch fireworks.
The beautiful ones
that are big
and dazzling.
Look.
Those
big
and beautiful ones
Filling the entire sky.
♫I'll fetch you the moon in my heart♫
♫I dream of the courtyard♫
♫It knows my heart♫
♫I want to return triumphantly with you♫
So beautiful.
♫We can listen to the rain♫
Of course it's beautiful.
It's so expensive.
♫And watch the snowfall in the west hills♫
I paid so much for them.
Haven't you seen fireworks before?
♫On the streets, the alleys, and the palace♫
Must you watch it today?
♫We shall always meet♫
Are you done?
♫I only hope you fall into my heart♫
Bro, I want to go back
♫The fire warms winter days♫
♫Spring can take its time♫
♫Everything is as you wish♫
♫We meet with our hearts♫
♫Let's not miss each other♫
♫You're what I always think about♫
♫I'm willing to go to the sky for you♫
♫To pluck the moon above the clouds♫
♫I'd knit a whole galaxy for you♫
♫We meet with our hearts♫
♫Let's not miss each other♫
♫I'll grow old for you♫

Mr. Xi.
Can you recognize me?
What are you talking about? I don't get it.
Now you're playing dumb?
Are you going to lose your memory later?
Can you recognize me?
Recognize her?
Why's she asking that?
What happened?
Yes, even if you turn into ashes.
Am I that unforgettable?
Where am I?
You're in
the General's Residence
My guest room.
Why am I here?
Why are you here?
Ask yourself.
You were drunk and refused to leave.
I had to bring you back.
I was drunk?
What else did I do?
What did you do?
Ask yourself.
You
touched me from head to toe.
You even
told me many, many things.
What did I say?
You said
your surname is Xi.
You're a tea merchant.
You came to Heman
to do business.
You also said
you feel an affinity with me
and want to give me
all your earnings.
You're lying again.
I couldn't have told you all that.
Drunk words are sober thoughts.
Since you said I lied,
it can only prove
your surname isn't Xi
and you aren't
a tea merchant here for business.
You're lying.
You don't scare me.
Stare all you want!
But don't worry.
I won't foil your plans.
I can tell
you're also a good man
with ulterior motives.
A good man?
How can you be so sure?
You've been protecting me all the way
and saved
Lanna villagers with me.
I have
a sense of loyalty.
Since you protected me,
if you need anything,
I'll help you.
As long as it
doesn't cost money
or my life.
It can't cost money or your life.
Then what can you do for me?
Isn't it obvious?
I can put my beauty to good use.
As a girl,
can you not be so
So
So So
shameless, right?
I really
don't have
the slightest sense of shame.
You
Are you really angry?
That makes me
so happy.
What are you doing?
What do you want?
Are you really this kind of person?
It's broad daylight.
Can't you
take a joke?
I never
joke around.
Yan Nanxing.
I don't care about your past.
Now, remember this.
From the moment we came back
to Heman,
every moment
is no longer a joke.
