Is this your work?
These are the words of a song from Yue
Can you sing it for me?
It is about a Prince sailing down a stream
and the rowing girl falls in love with him
She sings this song
So it is a love song
No
it is a song about loneliness
You can sing to your young friend Qing
She would not understand
No one can really understand another person
If we did
we would not feel so lonely
to pursue the arts
I was against the idea
To me, a man should not be
a lonely musician
a product of warm hills and soft streams
A proper man is a prince
who rules over his kingdom
with strength and courage
That is only your idea of a man,
Empress Mother
But you have responsibilities
They're bestowed upon you
by the heavens above
passed on to you by your ancestors
expected of you by your people
Hasn't my uncle assumed
these responsibilities in me?
He...
to greet you here
You have allowed the Prince to slip away
insulting His Majesty with your incompetence
What do you suggest you should do?
We shall offer up our lives as penance
Very good
Your families will be spared
We thank his gracious Majesty for his lenience
Clean the bridge
This palace is falling to ruin
The late Emperor was a thrifty man
but I am not going to suffer the way he did
Pave the ceiling
with flowers in gold leaf
Yes, Your Majesty
May I enquire
should the central pillar be painted in vermilion
or ink black?
Vermilion is the color of blood
and gold represents glory
Which glorious dynasty
has not been forged with blood?
Minister Yin
Your Majesty
I envy you
for having such a personable and astute son
gifted in both cultural and military affairs
Unlike my nephew
your Crown Prince
who only knows to sing and dance
If Your Majesty does not like
the snow leopard carving
it can be replaced at once
I like it
When it snows
the cave to groom his fur
When the sun comes out,
it knows about changing with the weather
This is a clever beast
a tiger would be even more appropriate
According to the Book of Change
a great man descends from a tiger
a gentleman from a leopard
The tiger has an appropriate air of majesty
Governor Pei Hong of You Province
Your Majesty
Why are you silent?
I was thinking, perhaps
this snow leopard should be gifted
to Minister Yin
Why is that?
Because he too knows how to change
with the weather
Governor Pei's suggestion is excellent
We shall bestow on Minister Yin
this beautiful carving
My deepest gratitude to Your Majesty
As for a replacement...
