(Scene 4: KINGS THRONE ROOM) ( Wraith song)

Kangxi: ( throw the a cage with a bird) This is the bird that ate
the Crown Prince’s breakfast today. It was a great luck that the
Crown Prince skip his meal because he was not hungry. Why is
there no response? Catch the person who tried to kill the
Crown prince.
Empress Dowager Yoo: Why is it needed? He isn’t the right one
to be the Crown Prince. A Crown Prince should grow up in this
peaceful palace not into a dirty scary forest Afterall theres no
one who have trained him there in martial arts so I suppose he
cant fight as good as the princesses. So I suggest you depose
the 1st prince as Crown Prince.
Emperor kangxi:Do you all agree with her?
All Princes:( only silence and glances)
Emperor kangxi: Speak up. Who among you will suit the
position if not the current Crown Prince?
Yin Zhi: ( KNEEL) Please withdraw those words. Your Majesty.
There is no one among us who wishes to become the crown
prince.
Yinxiang: (KNEEL ALSO) That is true your Majesty. Please
withdraw your words.
( Yinti hurriedly kneel)
All Princes: Please withdraw your words, Your Majesty!
Emperor Kangxi: It has been 24 years since this land has been
founded. The 1st prince Yinzhen fought with me in many wars.
He laid the foundation for this nation. Empress Dowager Yoo,
during this spiritual ritual.. Prepare for it with great detail!
Empress Dowager: Yes! Your Majesty
(The Emperor exit and followed by the Princes)
(SCENE 5 :Empress Dowager Yoo Room) ( Agonal howl song)
Princess Hwangbo: The crown prince are lucky to be alive
Empress Dowager Yoo: We have only made him more aware
and vigilant now
Princess Hwangbo: Forgive me for my rudeness my queen but I
heard some rumor in the capital that you’re the one who made
the 1st prince face ugly. Is it true?
Empress Dowager: ( cough)
(FLASHBACK ( Vendetta song)
Empress Dowager: What do you mean, wife?
Empress Dowager: Your majesty!
Emperor Kangxi :Move
Empress Dowager: I will die. Our first born son has died. How
can you get married? How can you marry at a time like this?
Emperor Kangxi :Qing is in danger. This marriage is the way to
deflect that danger.
Empress Dowager: Before you are a ruler, you are the father of
my children. Are you not sad? Does your heart not feel torn?
Don’t you wish you could die and bring back your child?
Emperor Kangxi :There are lives at stake
Empress Dowager: King. ( grab the young prince and kneel) If
that is all you care about, why should we bother living
anymore?
Young prince: Mother.
Empress Dowager : Grab a small knife and point it to the young
prince) do you choose to marry or do you choose your son? Is it
Qing or your sons life?
Emperor Kangxi :Put down that knife. You cannot stop my
marriage by doing this
Empress Dowager: You really are something. You really are. If I
do not have your whole heart, I do not need it. ( try to plunged
the knife)
Emperor Kangxi: ( hurriedly grab the hand and sway but it
accidentally hit the young prince face)
Young prince: ( cries)
( End of flashback)
Empress Dowager: ( tried to stand but fail) Awhh
Princess Hwangbo: Queen, are you alright?
Empress Dowager: Yes.

(SCENE 11: queens room)

Empress dowager: Why are you here?
Yinzhen: I just want to visit you Mother. I haven’t seen you for
all this years.
Empress dowager: Mother, mother, mother! Hearing you call
me ‘’mother’’ makes my skin crawl. I do not wish to see you, so
go. Go now!
Yinzhen: I have always been curious. Why doesn’t my Mother
feel pity for me? If you were my mother you would care for me.
So why doesn’t my mother ever look back at me? I waited so
desparately for it.
Empress dowager: You are not my son. You are the son of the
Zhao in Chengdu
Yinzhen: ( backward)
Yinzhen: It is my face isn’t it? You sent me to be adopted .And
you continues to turn your back on me. Its because all of this
face!
Yinzhen: ( THROWS EVERYTHING)
Empress dowager: ( shock)
Yinzhen: Do you know how my life with the Zhao. Once they
threw me into the biggest wolves den in Chengdu.
Empress dowager: A mother only recognizes a son who will
make her shine. You are my shame, disgrace, and flaw. That’s
why I sent you away. Thanks to you I felt a sense of love and
justice. And I will thank you for that
Yinzhen: Today is a day you will remember. You threw me
away, Mother
Empress dowager: Nonsense.
Yinzhen: ( turns his back)
Empress dowager: If you do something like this again, you’ll
never step foot Qing again!
(SCENE 12: queens room)
Empress Dowager:I do not want any women to shine brighter
than me. If anyone stands out… ( GLANCE EVILY at her servant)
though I do not think that will happen. ( goes out)
( princess hwangbo, lady ruoxan and dowager empress yo cross
path each other (bow).
Empress dowager:: Three flowers have bloomed in the palace.
Lady Ruolan, today you are looking more elegant
Empress shinzu:Empress dowager you are looking very
beautiful today
Empress dowager: Shall we go in then?
Jang xiao: (Hello your highness)
Empress shinzu: Oh you must be the girl Yinxiang told me
about. The girl who hit the 4th prince severely?
Ruo xi: (looks down)
Empress dowager yo:I have heard about your actions. I have
heard you get along well with my sons.
Ruo xi:Its nice to meet you, Queen yoo.
Lady Ruo Lan: Ruo xi made a gift for you, Your highness.
Dowager Yoo: ( opens the box) You have a good wife, yinzhen
too bad you do not have children. There would be no flaws,
otherwise (tsk tsk)
Yinzhen: They say big blessings do not come so easily. Thank
you for your concern.
Voice: THE KING WILL ENTER
Emperor Kangxi: ( enters)
Jang xiao: Its emperor kang xi who founded qing! Ive only seen
him in tv dramas. Now im seeing him for real. Awesome.
Dowager Yoo: You have arrived your highness
Emperor kangxi:This looks like pleasant chat.I have heard that
you were not feeling well
Lady Ruo lan: Now that I know you are worried for me. I feel
like I am fully recovered.
Emperor Kangxi: Is this the girl who got into a fight with yintin,
by a chance?
Yinzhen: they were only playing around
Emperor Kangxi: A prince ended up with wounds on his face.
The playing went too far.
Ruo xi:I Please forgive me your Majesty! have commited a
deadly crime! ( bows down)
Emperor kangxi: Are you afraid of the king?
Ruo xi: ( get your act together. A tyrant wants the people to be
scared of him. But a wise emperor wants to be respected by the
people. )
Ruo xi: You are a good and wise king, so I am not afraid.
Kangxi: A good and wise king? Why do you think I am a good
and wise king?
Empress dowager:(smirk)
Kangxi: Were you planning on getting away with it by using
some flattery?
Ruo xi: (please,please.please,) ( . He ascended the throne at the
age of 8 and arrested Oboi. He suppressed the revolt of the
three Feudatories and defeated the Dzungars .think of
something, you have to think.)
Ruo xi: Well, emperor Qin and Emperor Wu of Han are lacking
in literary talent. Emperor Tai Zhong and Emperor Taizu are not
as poetic. The heavenly pride Genghis Khan only knew how to
hunt with his bow. All are past and gone. Among all great
heroes the best one can only be found in this dynasty.
Emperor Kangxi: HAHAHAHA. She is very clever
Ruo xi: Ahh my junior high history teacher.. im sorry for cursing
you when you made us memorize this. Thank you. You’’ll be
blessed.
Emperor: I see fighting is not all that youre good at. You may
reward her with a Persian Rug.
Empress Shinzu: A precious rug for her? What an honor!
Ruo xi:Hahaha
Yin zhi: Xiao you should thank him.
Ruo xi: Xiexie ni bixia!
Jang xiao: Hahahahaha
.
