Could their reluctant alliance evolve into a genuine partnership? Directed by Wang Wei and adapted from Feng Huang Xi's novel "The Singing Of Chang An's Copper Sparrow," this 2024 Chinese historical romance drama is a tale of unexpected bonds and enduring justice.

06:08Clever
06:13Be good
06:15Mother, I know I was wrong. Please punish me
06:28I have been waiting for this day to punish you
06:33Yong'an, I don't punish you not because of our love
06:43It's just because you only donated the local military
06:48You have nothing to do with our country
06:52If you have any intention of rebellion
06:57I dare not
06:59I have put all my assets in the national treasury

07:14I will bear it in mind
07:21Yong'an, do you think you can get the people's support
07:28by giving them some military money?
07:31People's support cannot be bought
07:36Now your emperor is guarding the border
07:40You are in Xiang'an
07:42Should you do something for Cang?
07:46I don't need to tell you again
07:49I will do my best to assist you
07:55It's good that you understand
07:58As the saying goes, do what you do for the people

18:53Here.
18:56Goodbye.
18:59I don't think it's a good gift.
19:01It's not touching enough.
19:03Liu Niang, this is the ninth time you've come to visit us.
19:07Da Ge Ling is very sincere.
19:09Don't be angry with him.
19:11Go home with him.
19:13That's right, Liu Niang.
19:15Da Ge Ling is always at our door.
19:17He's always at our door.
19:19He's always at our door.
19:21He's always at our door.
19:23He's always at our door.
19:25He's always at our door.
19:27He's always at our door.
19:29It's not nice.
19:32Just give your husband some face.
19:34Mother.
19:36Third Sister.
19:38Why are you all helping him?
19:40He asked for separation.
19:44I'm just helping him.
19:46Besides, I didn't let him stand at the door all day.
19:48Besides, I didn't let him stand at the door all day.
19:50Besides, I didn't let him stand at the door all day.

20:00You... you slow down. Be careful of your stomach.
20:07Qing Ling.
20:11Let's buy some more.
20:22Really?
20:23Yes.
20:24It's all over Xiang An City.
20:26Shen Da Ge Ling has been rejected nine times.
20:29And he went to invite his bride for the tenth time.
20:33It's so funny.
20:35Isn't this Shen Da Ge Ling?
20:37Now Bai Wu Cheng should be called Bai Song Li.
20:40Will the tenth marriage be successful?
20:42They bought a lot of gifts.
20:44It's quite expensive.
20:45How much is this?
20:47The latest 20 hairpins.
20:48I bought another set.
20:51You take it.
20:52I... I really can't take it.
20:55Why don't you find two more people to take it?
20:57Our house is not short of people.
20:59What do you know?
21:02The less people know about this, the better.
21:04There are still people in Xiang An City.
21:06Don't you know?
21:08I don't know. I don't know.
21:10We support you, Da Ge Ling.
21:11Wish you a happy marriage.
21:13I don't know. I don't know.
21:14We support you, Da Ge Ling.
21:23It's good.
21:24All the men in Xiang An City
21:26should use him as a shield.
21:28You have to tell him
21:30not to offend his wife.
21:36Empress Dowager,
21:38Master Yan has arrived.
21:40Invite him in.
21:41Yes.
21:44He's here.
21:53Yan Xin greets Empress Dowager.
21:57Rise and speak.
22:02Come.
22:03Speak in front of the mirror.
22:12I summoned you to the palace today
22:14because it's the right time for a family reunion.
22:17I and Minister Xu
22:19would like to have a family reunion with you.
22:28I have good news for you.
22:35The Empress Dowager has issued a decree
22:37to change the marriage marriage
22:39to Zexian marriage.
22:41From now on, no matter where you come from,
22:43everyone will have a fair chance
22:45to find fame and work for the country.
22:50All the scholars in the world
22:52will be grateful to the Empress Dowager
22:55for studying hard for the country.
23:03Turn around.

23:10Raise your hands.
23:13Go back.
23:15Turn around.
23:16Turn around.
23:21Pan Chi.
23:23It's really you.
23:24Next.
23:29What's wrong?
23:30Can't I take the exam?
23:32Of course you can.
23:33We welcome all the students
23:35from all over the world to take the exam.
23:37But I heard that
23:39someone is not interested in being an official.
23:43It's hard to tell the difference
23:45between gold and silver.
23:48Your tone of voice
23:50is more and more like Lu Chuichui.
23:53You mean Chuichui is ink?
23:56Of course I mean silver.
23:57You...
23:58I'm not interested in being an official.
24:00I just have to prove myself
24:01with this exam
24:02and check
24:04whether your exam
24:06is really fair.
24:09Okay.
24:10Then you should take the exam
24:13and check carefully.
24:17There are some things
24:19I've wanted to do for a long time
24:21but it's been inconvenient for a long time.
24:25In my heart,
24:27I've never forgotten Chen Baiyi.
24:33On behalf of Chen Baiyi,
24:35on behalf of all the students,
24:36I thank you, Your Majesty.
24:41Okay.
24:44Master Yan,
24:46you always think for others.
24:48You should think more about yourself when you have time.
24:52Me?
24:58What about me?
25:02Look,
25:03I gave Xue Ziwen a hard chance.
25:08What about you?
25:13Shouldn't you
25:15give the people around you
25:17a chance to retake the exam?
25:23Why don't you marry the one in front of you?
25:37Get up.
25:38I'm here for you.
25:42Mom,
25:43why did you wake me up so early?
25:46Today is my day off.
25:48Get up and get dressed.
25:50Otherwise,
25:51you'll be late for the ceremony.
25:53What ceremony?
25:59Come in.
26:00Put your things away.
26:01Be careful.
26:02Yes.
26:04Sanniang, slow down.
26:06Put your things there.
26:08Yes.
26:09Be quick.
26:11Slow down.
26:16Be careful.
26:19Mom,
26:21what are you doing?
26:27Here's the thing.
26:28Your mom and I went to the ancestral hall
26:31and asked the ancestors.
26:32Then we went to the temple to find the goddess.
26:35They said that
26:36you got married for no reason.
26:41Then you got divorced for no reason.
26:44You made a big mistake.
26:48You lied to your ancestors and your parents.
26:52You'll suffer in the future.
26:55Mom,
26:56you mean
26:57even the goddess doesn't allow me to divorce?
26:59No.
27:00I've figured it out.
27:02If you want to divorce,
27:04then divorce.
27:05But you have to solve the problem.
27:08The only way to solve the problem
27:10is to go through the ceremony
27:12seriously.
27:14Then you can ask the goddess
27:17and divorce formally.
27:29Yes, Liu Niang.
27:30I've asked the goddess.
27:32It's not only bad for you,
27:34but also bad for our family.
27:36I'm a little scared.
27:37Yes, Liu Niang.
27:39Look,
27:40Sanjian is pregnant.
27:42You'd better believe it.
27:46You can't believe it.
28:02You can't believe it.
28:16People should always be with the one they love.
28:19Respect each other.
28:20Cherish each other.
28:22Only in this life can we be happy.
28:26From now on,
28:28you won't be alone.
28:31I will try my best to find the truth for you.
28:36This virtuous lady
28:40is me.
28:42You think you can fool me?
29:02Stop.
29:05Get married?
29:06Is it possible?
29:08Yes.
29:15What's the ceremony?
29:16We're getting married.
29:20Who said
29:21he would hold a big wedding
29:23for my good friend?
29:27You regret it?
29:30Of course not.
29:32I'm afraid my wife will scold me
29:34if I report it first.
29:36Why are you so stubborn?
29:40Why are you afraid of being scolded?
29:42I'm afraid my wife will ignore you.
29:44Brother Ling,
29:45when you get married,
29:46you should be brave enough
29:48to give it your all.
29:58Brother Ling,
29:59congratulations.
30:00My wife said
30:01although she didn't mean it,
30:03she still sat down to dress up.
30:09Brother Ling,
30:10don't you understand?
30:11My wife is so smart.
30:13How could she not know
30:14it was a set-up?
30:15Since she sat down to dress up,
30:16it means
30:17she's willing to do it.
30:19Yes.
30:20Brother Ling,
30:21you're not as smart as
30:22the one in the well.
30:28Brother Ling,
30:29let's go inside.
30:53Let's go.
30:59You Niang,
31:00I'm here to marry you.
31:28You Niang,
31:29I'm here to marry you.
31:51It's done.
31:52Take a look.
31:58It's so beautiful.
32:04You deserve to be my daughter.
32:07You're so beautiful.
32:09You're so beautiful.
32:12I can't look at you enough.
32:15You look so much like me.
32:24Niang,
32:25you're so...
32:29Guys,
32:30have you figured out
32:32the riddle of the first level?
32:39A line of white deer in the clear sky.
32:46Congratulations.
32:47You got the last riddle right.
32:49I'm so lucky to have Lu Chui Chui.
32:51Otherwise,
32:52it would be so hard to figure it out.
32:53Yes.
32:54Lu Chui Chui is right.
33:01The Yan family is a family of scholars.
33:03If you want to marry a girl from the Yan family,
33:05you have to be talented.
33:07In the next level,
33:08you have to write a good poem to show your loyalty.
33:14It seems that Shen Da Ge Ling
33:15has made it to the second level.
33:17It's not easy for Third Sister
33:18to write a good poem.
33:21I'm sick every day.
33:23I don't want to see you.
33:26I don't want to see you.
33:31I don't want to see you.
33:50I don't want to see you.
33:53The lonely bridge is full of sleeves.
33:55The moon is beautiful in the plain.
33:57The sorrowful and happy things are all in the same water.
34:00I'm lucky to have you.
34:02I can't return.
34:05Thank you for coming in time.
34:15My ears are numb.
34:20What are you doing?
34:22I want people to see
34:24that we are a happy couple.
34:39Liu Niang,
34:40I think you should go out.
34:42Shen Da Ge Ling's poems
34:44are so sour that I can't even chew tofu.
34:48Yes, Liu Niang.
34:49Don't let him read it.
34:51We are all at this age.
34:53We can't afford to torture him.
34:56Good poem.
34:57The soul is burning.
34:59The second level is over.
35:07Please, Da Ge Ling.
35:13The last level
35:15is a competition.
35:17You can marry my sister.
35:19But you have to beat us first.
35:21Otherwise, you can't take my sister away.
35:25Da Ge Ling,
35:26it's too late.
35:39Don't move.
35:40What are you doing?
35:44Da Ge Ling, go.
35:48This is cheating.
35:50Let five brothers
35:51compete with a child.
35:53Is this a level?
35:54Then,
35:55I will compete with him.
35:58You lost.
35:59What?
36:01They
36:03can beat Shen Du?
36:11I think he lost on purpose.
36:15Bad, Liu Niang.
36:16Shen Du lost.
36:17He took the winning team and left.
36:47Shen Du,
36:49you didn't leave?
36:51Madam is here.
36:53Where can I go?
37:16Shen Du,
37:18you lied to me.
37:22I...
37:47I am a child.
37:49I can't coax such a smart madam.
37:53So,
37:54I can only pretend.
37:59Madam won't blame me, right?
