[Follow Your Heart]
[Episode 35]
Suoluo, you're getting married?
I have to bear the consequences
of my actions.
You don't like him?
No.
Then
Can you
not marry him?
I don't think so.
He's hard to deal with.
I'll help you deal with him.
What do you know, kid?
I know a lot.
Do you know how to clean up?
Of course.
I'll throw it away for you.
I
Suoluo,
I don't want to be alone at home.
I'm scared.
Can you take me to school with you?
No.
Suoluo,
take me with you.
I promise I will behave.
Promise you won't talk nonsense
or run around.
If I find out,
I'll punish you severely.
Okay, thank you.
Let's go.
[Imperial Academy]
[Teacher of All Ages]
Ruoqian!
Ruoqian!
Ruoqian,
come here.
You are
I am your Boss.
My Boss
Boss?
Boss,
are you looking for me?
I'm not looking for you,
but helping you.
I'm going to meet Yan Biqing
and help you get rid of him.
Get rid of him?
With how
perceptive I am,
I can find his weakness
in just one day.
What weakness?
Everyone has a weakness.
If he's a gambler,
I'll set a bet
to make him go bankrupt.
If he is lustful
I’ll ruin his reputation.
No, no, Boss.
Dean Yan's father
is the Assistant Minister of Justice.
Don't act recklessly.
That's even better.
The higher the position,
the merrier.
By then, they must cancel the wedding.
Boss,
take a seat.
I have to go to class.
Don't make any trouble.
Wait for me.
Let's come up with a long-term plan.
Seriously.
How dare you tell your Boss what to do?
Liu Ruoqian.
Dean.
You're lucky.
Mr. Cui
set up Jiannan Academy in Yizhou
and asked you to be a teacher.
In Yizhou,
no one will care
whether you're a slave or not.
Think about it.
Thank you, zdean.
Liu Ruoqian,
this is the best path for you.
Don't covet what you can't have.
I don't understand what you're talking about.
That day,
I went to Suoluo's house to deliver the wedding dress.
Weren't you there too?
Dean Yan, mind your words.
Don't insult the chancellor's reputation.
Is her legitimate fiancé
or the man hiding in her room
the one insulting her reputation?
The chancellor and I are innocent.
Is hiding in the room
and engaging in illicit acts
a type of innocence?
Don't talk about her like that.
To tell you the truth,
I'm not marrying
the Imperial Academy's chancellor
or Jiang Suoluo.
I'm marrying the Duchess of Yuejiang.
As for
who her lover is
or how many she has,
I don't care at all.
If you can take good care of her,
I will
give you an extra reward.
Bastard!
You
Come with me.
Where are we going?
I will make her pay tenfold
how hard
you're hitting me now.
How dare you!
Stop! Stop!
He hit me!
Did you see that?
Stop,
Liu Ruoqian!
Chancellor.
He hit me!
Liu Ruoqian,
how dare you hit a teacher
at the Imperial Academy?
He insulted you first.
Education lies in respecting your teacher.
Haven't you learned it before?
Of course—
You're just a slave.
If the Imperial Academy hadn't made
an exception to admit you,
how could you be studying here?
Apologize to Dean Yan.
I don't think an apology is necessary.
According to the rules of the Imperial Academy—
Liu Ruoqian,
what you did today
was a disgrace to our school.
You must be punished.
Take off your outer robe.
Bring me the ruler.
As a gentleman said,
there is no limit to learning.
Recite it.
Recite it!
As a gentleman said,
there is no limit to learning.
Indigo
comes from blue,
yet is darker than blue.
Ice
is made of water,
yet is colder than water.
Don't be so harsh.
He did it for you—
I'll beat you too if you keep talking.
Go away.
Continue.
Straight wood can be used in a chalk line,
while it can also be turned into a wheel.
Thus, it becomes round.
I've received my punishment.
Is there anything else
you ask of me?
Ruoqian.
Yan Biqing deliberately provoked you to make a mistake.
I hit you in public—
I understand.
You hit me
because you wanted to de-escalate things
and protect me.
But I don't want to thank you.
Anyway, you can't leave the Imperial Academy.
You can't give up on your dreams
and ambitions.
I can give up.
Liu Ruoqian.
Mr. Cui asked me to teach in Yizhou.
I've made up my mind.
I'll leave in a few days.
Yizhou is far away.
It will take a long time
to come back.
Then I won't come back.
You sinister villain.
I’ll teach you a lesson.
Mr. Yan,
how did you get hurt?
It's just a trick.
Why are you here?
Is it an emergency?
Here's the thing.
The next batch of goods
need your help.
Goods?
What goods?
Okay.
I got it.
Before I get married,
don't let Jiang Xinbai get any leverage on me,
or else
the outcome will be worse than death.
It's him?
You won't tell the truth?
Fine.
Then don't talk anymore.
Bai Yuan said he dismissed
all his men.
Why did this person
appear in the Imperial Academy?
What's his relationship
with Yan Biqing?
Don't worry.
Our chief has his own plan.
Suoluo,
come with me!
Hurry up!
Go.
I want to be alone.
Go out and play by yourself.
Take me to the Jiang Xinbai's house right now!
I said
I want to be alone.
You're really
Jiang Suoluo,
if you don't want to marry
a Zornia boss,
hurry and take me there!
What did you say?
Who are you?
Jiang Xinbai?
Jiang Xinbai!
What are you doing?
Jiang Xinbai?
What—
I don't have time to play hide-and-seek with you.
Hey!
You
Brat.
Are you okay?
You're at home?
I need to find someone.
Brat?
Did you see the kid
who just came in?
Stop looking.
That was me.
What?
That kid.
Are you kidding me?
How could you be a child?
Not only was I that child,
but also your nephew.
Greetings, Aunt.
Which part of the Jiang family are you from?
Uncle, Aunt.
I'll visit you
some other time.
See you.
Aunt.
Could it be
Come in.
Stay outside.
No need to come in.
-Yes.
-Yes.
When we first met at the Ghost Market,
did you also
That's right.
I was shapeshifting.
Jiang Xinbai escorted me out.
Shapeshift?
You
You can shapeshift?
Zornia
can really make people shapeshift?
How could this happen?
I've tried all kinds of herbs since I was a kid,
so I'm immune to all poisons.
If someone else ate Zornia,
they would have died.
Although I survived,
I got this strange disease.
Since you were poisoned,
there must be a cure.
How about I take you back to the palace
to see an imperial physician?
It's useless.
My mother went through all the medical books
and took me to doctors for so many years
to no avail.
This strange disease
must have made you suffer a lot.
You
You don't think I'm weird?
To be honest,
I did
think you were strange before.
I thought that was your personality.
I didn't know
you became like this
because you were framed.
Nanxing,
don't worry.
There must be a solution.
After these treacherous people
are eliminated,
I will find a solution
with Xinbai.
Why
are you two here?
Xinbai,
if I hadn't found out
accidentally today,
how long were you going to hide it from me?
Suoluo,
since you already know
this secret,
how long do you plan on
keeping it a secret for Yan Nanxing?
My sister-in-law's secret
is my secret.
I won't say anything
even if my life is in danger.
Enough, stop teasing her.
I have something important
to tell you.
Mr. Yao!
Mr. Yao.
What's wrong with him?
We received a report this morning
a merchant in the south of the city had a poison attack
and injured his wife badly.
Yes.
Someone reported him to the Inspection Office
and we arrested him.
People in the capital are buying Zornia again?
Ask our men
to the south of the city with me.
Yes.
Where are you going?
Where are you going?
Don't move!
Don't move. Behave yourself.
Behave!
Kneel down!
Mr. Yao.
Tell me.
Where did you buy the Zornia?
I didn’t expect
the Baiyuan Gang to be involved
with Yan Biqing.
It seems
that the mastermind
behind the people chasing after us
in Yazhou
was Yan Biqing.
Not only that,
but Yan Biqing and his father
were also the ones who killed my father.
No wonder
Yan Biqing went to the State of Miluo
as soon as Xinbai returned to the capital.
Turns out he was afraid you would accuse him.
That's why he ran away to avoid trouble.
How scheming.
Suoluo,
Yan Biqing is sinister, vicious,
and ambitious.
You can't drag out
your engagement with him.
Tomorrow,
I will ask
His Majesty to cancel your engagement.
You can't do that now.
If we force His Majesty
to break off
the engagement at this time,
we will alert them.
I'm afraid Yan Biqing and his father
will get desperate.
This might be worse for you two.
Yan Biqing
is capable
of anything.
I'm afraid you can't handle it.
Xinbai, don't worry.
In the Imperial Academy,
he's still a little afraid of me.
He doesn't dare to be too arrogant.
I'll try to buy time.
After you find the evidence,
we can bring them
to justice.
The only evidence now
is Bai Yuan.
Bai Yuan?
Isn't he
Blossom Beauty's worker?
What's so hard about catching him?
But
you must treat him
as you normally do.
We can't let him suspect us.
Suoluo is right.
Don't worry.
I will stabilize him.
I'll cooperate with you
to arrest him later
and testify for you.
[Inspection Office]
This is an important matter.
Block the news.
I'll report to Mr. Jiang immediately.
My lord.
What's wrong, Yao?
Why are you in such a hurry?
People in the capital
were found to be in contact with Zornia again.
There are a lot of people.
The situation is worse than before.
Go and find Shang Bieli.
Ask him to check
if any mistakes
occurred in the foreign goods
that entered the capital recently,
or
if any Jinwu Guard
has neglected their duty.
I understand.
I'll do it now.
It has spread throughout
the capital already?
It seems that the Zornia
has something to do
with Bai Yuan and Yan Biqing.
We have to strike first.
Yan Nanxing.
Where have you been
these days?
Jiang Xinbai went out with me
for some errands.
How are things?
You must've been busy in the shop
without me.
Have you adjusted?
Me?
I can handle Blossom Beauty.
That's good.
Hey,
where's my water?
What's wrong?
Nothing.
Go ahead.
[Closed]
Boss.
Ruoqian.
You really decided to go to Yizhou?
You don't regret it?
Why should I stay?
I'm not needed here.
How can you say that?
Boss,
you know what I want to say.
Boss,
can you be friends with Suoluo?
I mean
close friends.
She is
straightforward,
short-tempered,
and won't admit defeat.
She needs a friend
to help her.
Also,
she's not good at taking care of herself.
She always throws things around
and loses things when going out.
She eats meals erratically.
If no one can
Why am I worrying about this?
You're her sister-in-law.
I bet you're closer than family.
Ruoqian,
look at you.
Even if you go to Yizhou,
your heart won't go with you.
Boss,
I beg you.
Don't persuade me to stay.
I'm afraid I'll change my mind.
This won't be good
for either of us.
I'll come back tomorrow
for the last day of work.
I won't come the day after that.
I'll accompany my parents
for the rest of the time
and not think about anything.
Miss,
please come in.
Is Ruoqian
here?
Ruoqian
is going to Yizhou tomorrow.
Maybe
he will never come back.
Suoluo,
do you understand what I'm saying?
[Shanli Hall]
♫Branches bare as flowers fall off♫
♫Akin to how I can't stay in your heart♫
♫When will I dare♫
♫To get closer♫
♫Hold onto your sleeves tightly and resolutely♫
Chancellor,
are you hungry?
I'll cook for you.
♫Same dream and person in front of me♫
♫Abrupt ending on the cusp of fruition♫
♫I'm left behind♫
♫No traces of you♫
♫Where are you?♫
♫I can't find you amidst my yearning♫
♫Missing you day and night♫
♫My heart has become cold♫
♫Without rest♫
♫Tears keep flowing♫
♫Missing you left and right♫
You're back.
Look at this.
♫Our past is eternal♫
I saw it again today,
so I picked one for you
♫All my time♫
Do you remember this?
♫Is for you♫
♫Past, present, and future♫
♫Missing you day and night♫
♫My heart has become cold♫
♫It doesn't matter♫
♫I'm willing to give all I have♫
♫It'll never end♫
♫Missing you left and right♫
♫Our past is eternal♫
♫All my time♫
♫Is for you♫
Didn't you say
♫Past, present, and future♫
you're mine?
Yes.
I belong to Suoluo,
but Suoluo never said
that you're mine.
Liu Ruoqian,
you're mine.
Ruoqian,
I know
you didn't say goodbye to your parents
because you don't want them to be sad.
But they told me
that as long as you are
safe there,
write to them.
Let them know how you are doing
and they will be happy.
After I leave,
I'll need to ask you
to take care of my parents.
Of course.
When you get there,
you must write to me and Sai'er often.
Please help me
explain to Sai'er.
She will cry because I left
without saying goodbye.
Sir, it's getting late.
It's time to go.
Ruoqian,
go ahead.
Let me see you off.
Okay.
Liu Ruoqian!
♫Pretty faces and illusions dazzle my eyes♫
♫I cannot betray my duties♫
♫The sky changes, but hearts are hard to betray♫
♫Using time as my last bet♫
♫I allow you into my dreams, don't prove me wrong♫
♫Stars in the mirror♫
♫Give me emptiness♫
♫Three thousand drunken glances are not worth♫
♫A single look at you♫
♫Even if deeply understanding your heart♫

I don't allow you to go.
♫I'll still wholeheartedly pursue it♫
♫Only you can scatter blossoms♫
♫Upon the book in my heart♫
♫Till this moment, everything I see♫

Are
Are we still leaving?
He can't leave.
He'll never leave.
Why don't you send me home?
Okay.
Aren't we a bit
too high-profile today?
No.
I want everyone in the capital
know that
[Shanli Hall]
Liu Ruoqian is mine.
Wait for me.
After I
take care of everything,
I'll propose to you
legitimately.
Okay.
I'll wait for you.
By the way, Sai'er,
has anyone said
you carry the scent of the seedlings?
My mother gave birth to me
in a seedling field.
So since I was young, I
You can smell now?
I think my sense of smell is recovering slowly.
Well,
let’s go back and tell Ms. Yan.
She will be happy for you.
Let's go.
Shang,
I think I smell
Zornia.
Wait.
Bro,
what's the matter?
Commander of the Jinwu Guards.
Officer.
Open the box. I need to inspect it.
The goods we're transporting
are tributes from the Western Region.
This is the document from the Court of State Ceremonial.
Cut the crap.
Open it.
My lord,
there's nothing, right?
Can we go now?
No, my lord.
Please don't make it difficult for us.
If we're delayed,
the Court of State Ceremonial will punish us.
Body search.
Chief!
What happened?
Our men were caught.
The tributes to the capital
from the Western Regions
are handled by Yan Biqing.
Why did things go wrong
with him?
The tribute was supposed to be transported to the capital,
but
they ran into a man and a woman.
This man was quite powerful.
He was some
commander-in-chief.
Shang Bieli?
You know him?
He's friends with Jiang Xinbai.
It seems that
Jiang Xinbai will find out soon
about this.
Jiang Xinbai has always been
cautious of you.
If the Inspection Office
gets involved in this,
it won't be good for you.
Ridiculous.
I'm not afraid of him.
Chief,
now is not the time
to act on impulse.
The whole Baiyuan Gang is counting on you.
Er,
how about this?
You and the rest of the gang
go back to Tingzhou first.
You won't come with us?
I have other things to do.
Wait for me in Tingzhou.
Chief!
Yan Nanxing
doesn't love you at all.
No matter how much you do for her,
she won't appreciate it.
A great man doesn't need a wife.
You are the leader of a gang.
Don’t let Yan Nanxing
disrupt you.
If you don’t leave with us,
I’ll kill Yan Nanxing now.
How dare you!
I'll do anything for you.
Er,
I came to the capital
just for her.
Zornia is second.
Chief.
Don't worry.
I won't get caught.
Wait for me in Tingzhou.
Chief!
At this time tomorrow,
I'll wait for you here.
Whether you're alive or dead,
I'll accompany you.
[Jinwu Guards]
These people
hid Zornia on themselves
and disguised as drivers to sneak into the city.
It's you?
You're from the Baiyuan Gang?
Bai Yuan?
Tell me.
Where is your
distribution point in the capital?
Speak!
I'll kill you if you don't!
Kill me if you want.
Where is Bai Yuan now?
Mr. Jiang went to investigate personally.
Commander Shang,
I'll return to the Inspection Office
and send men
to capture Bai Yuan.
Also, the clue of the tribute
definitely has something to do with the Yan father and son.
Commander Shang, please investigate it.
The Yan family?
Yan Biqing?
Bai Yuan came to the capital
to cooperate with Yan Biqing.
Leave it to me.
This time, I will capture
all these criminals.
[Notice of arrest]
Have the guys watch carefully.
All pedestrians and wagons
must be checked.
Don't let anyone go unchecked.
The city gate is already closed.
Bai Yuan's group
can't escape.
The rest of you,
split up!
Are you crazy?
How dare you come here?
Don't you know that the whole city
is searching for you?
They're after me, not you.
What are you afraid of?
What am I afraid of?
Your men and goods
are now in Jiang Xinbai's hands.
Just in case,
I can help you get rid of them.
My men
won't betray me.
Even in death.
I won't betray you either.
What are you afraid of?
It better be like this.
I'm here to tell you
I have my own plan.
Just stand by and watch.
Chief Bai, you're a good friend.
In that case,
give me the rest of the goods.
I can help you sell them.
Help me?
Do you believe yourself?
I
I'm really worried
about your safety.
If you don't want to leave the capital,
I can find you
a safe place
to hide in.
Yan Biqing.
Remember.
Before I die,
I'll definitely kill you first.
Also,
don't touch my people,
including Yan Nanxing.
Got it.
I won't touch them.
You got it?
Yes.
Threatening me?
How dare you!
You're like a dying fish,
but you still dare to stroll through the capital.
I'd like to see
how you get scaled and skinned.
Split up!
Yes.
