(A Journey to Love)

(Episode 33)

(One day later: Liuli Fort of An)

Chief.

Ru Yi and the others...

There's still nothing from them.

How are His Majesty and Mr. Du?

Chief Clerk Du has regained consciousness. He's fine now.

But as for His Majesty's wound,

according to Qian Zhao, he can either make it through tonight

or not at all.

Where is the Vengeance Edict that I asked you to prepare?

It's here.

I've done my best to imitate His Majesty's signature.

If others doubt it,

we can tell them that the signature doesn't look similar because

His Majesty couldn't hold the brush still due to his wound.

Now, we just need his fingerprint.

Qian Zhao, take a rest.

Even if you give all of your inner force to His Majesty, it's pointless.

No.

We haven't reached our destination. He can't die here.

Even if he dies in the end, I still have to do everything I can.

- But... - Let him be.

Qian Zhao was from Heaven Realm, the chief of the Imperial Bodyguards.

It's his duty to save His Majesty's life.

The army flag.

I took over the throne at a young age.

I acted recklessly and without virtue.

I put my trust in a traitor

and got my army killed.

Fortunately, with the sacrifice of Six Realms Hall, Heaven Realm,

Chai Ming, and the 16 valiant warriors

who remain loyal to me,

I managed to escape.

I've let Wu down.

I've let the officials and the people of Wu down.

I don't deserve to be alive.

But Six Realms Hall put their lives at risk

to rescue me.

They should be rewarded handsomely.

Your Majesty.

My will.

My will.

Your Majesty, it's here.

I've read it.

Keep it.

I'm sorry to all of you.

Your Majesty.

He's just exhausted.

His life is no longer at risk.

Come out with me.

I never thought

that His Majesty would write the Vengeance Edict himself.

Since his life is no longer at risk,

Qian Zhao,

I'll leave the rest to you.

Escort His Majesty

back to Wu with the team.

Aren't you going to go back with us?

Are you going to Capital of An?

Yes.

Her Highness is still in An.

She has always been timid.

I can't leave her behind.

- Okay. We'll go with you. - No.

Escort His Majesty back to Wu

with Qian Zhao and the others.

Do you think we are kids?

Will you come back after you go there?

We talked about this on our way here.

Ru Yi is in charge of rescuing Her Highness.

With her capability, if there's still no news from her,

I'm afraid that they are...

Your inner force is unstable right now.

You almost got killed twice yesterday in Donghu.

Even if you go back, you can't save them.

You are just courting death.

Chief.

I'm not courting death.

I've been at death's door countless times. But I'm still alive.

I'll be fine.

Here, Qian Zhao.

I'll leave it to you to escort His Majesty back

and exonerate Heaven Realm.

I'll leave it to you to handle those matters.

I'll leave my old manor to you.

Take good care of it for me.

Sun Lang.

Take good care of our men in Capital of Wu.

If I don't come back

and Her Highness is still alive,

promise me

that you'll take care of her like a sister.

There's no "if".

Take good care of your own sister.

Yes. I'm not going to do as you said.

Taking care of those cats and dogs is so much work for me already.

You can take care of your own men in Capital of Wu.

You are the chief of Six Realms Hall.

If you want us to get exonerated,

you have to do it yourself.

You always ask me to take care of the old manor.

I'm sick of it already.

I promise you

that I'll come back safety

with Ying

and Ru Yi.

Trust me.

Chief.

This is the pill that I've kept to save a life.

There's only one.

Chief.

I only have some Fire Bombs.

Is it true that other than Lord Li who was rescued,

no one else died?

Many people witnessed it that night.

It's true.

So, the entire diplomatic team of Wu managed to escape.

I heard that when the imperial city was under attack,

they sneaked into Donghu to rescue their emperor

and escaped in the midst of chaos.

Don't tell anyone that I came here.

Roger that.

I see it. Five miles from there

and five miles ahead. Scout out those areas.

Let's go, Mr. Du.

You can't do this now. We can't afford to waste more time.

I'm not leaving.

If Mr. Ning can return to Capital of An

with Miss Ru Yi to save Her Highness,

I can't run away to save myself.

Moreover,

I'm still alive because of Her Highness.

But you are severely injured.

Moreover,

he has already left for hours.

You can't catch up with him.

I can.

It doesn't matter if it'll take five days or ten days.

I'm going back to Capital of An.

I work for Her Highness

and I swear my loyalty to her.

I left Capital of Wu with Her Highness.

And I'll return with her.

If Her Highness, Mr. Ning, and the others...

I'll bring them back.

Mr. Du, wait.

Your Majesty.

You are the pillar of our country. You are loyal and courageous.

I don't have much with me right now.

I can only give you my cloak.

When you have safely returned,

I'll welcome you back to Capital of Wu.

Thank you, Your Majesty.

Come back safely.

Thank you, Your Majesty.

(Duke Qing's Residence)

Li Tong...

Who are you burning the joss paper for?

Impossible.

Impossible.

Ru Yi is so capable.

Even Yuan Zhou is no match for her.

She can't be...

You are a duke now, right?

You have military power, right? Why didn't you save her?

Who's the culprit?

Who's the culprit?

Who's so vicious and despicable?

Tell me. I'll kill him!

You better worry about yourself first.

I can only keep you here for a few days

because His Majesty has no time for you now.

When he comes to his senses, you'll suffer.

Can he kill me?

He may not kill you.

But he can send you to the arctic Shabei to be a shepherd.

Or kick you out to Mount Guan.

The Northern Pan Tribe will surely love someone like you from Jiangnan.

He can keep you for his own use

or use you to get more ransom from Wu.

Either way will be good for him.

If you want to cry, go ahead.

After tonight,

we may not have time to mourn anymore.

No.

I can't just die like this.

Ru Yi said

that only the weak will commit suicide.

(Xingshuo Gate)

Your Highness.

We will be waiting for you outside.

(Xingshuo Gate)

Greetings, Your Majesty.

I've brought you Lord Li from Wu.

Greetings, Your Majesty.

Your brother managed to escape.

I'm sure you've done your part.

I won't be congratulating you.

There are three things here.

Choose one.

Are you going to force me to commit suicide?

Aren't you afraid to be the talk of the town?

The talk of the town.

Lord Li of Wu colluded with Northern Pan

to attack An from Mount Guan.

You have committed a heinous crime.

Is it that important

to kill me

for the sake of your pride?

You were held hostage

by the traitor of the Crimson Guard in front of your officials.

I'm sure you were furious.

Refill the cup for Lord Li.

- How dare you! - Do you think

I'm trying to provoke you or say something outrageous before I die?

You are wrong!

Duke Qing.

I

just want to make a deal with you.

What tricks do you have up your sleeves this time?

If you are willing to accept it,

not only can I help you stabilize your current political situation,

I can also help you escape the accusation

of colluding with Northern Pan easily.

Okay. I'm listening.

Continue.

You wanted to marry a princess from another country to be your empress.

But you couldn't find someone who fit the role.

I can help you fulfill that old wish of yours.

Tell me.

How are you going to help me with it?

Greetings, Emperor An.

I am the Princess of Li City, Yang Ying.

I'm sure

you've received a lot of secret reports about me being as weak as a woman.

But I am in fact, a woman.

My father has only three sons.

My brother, Brother Dan Yang, and Brother Ying.

To save my brother,

I dressed up as a man and risked my life for him.

But as soon as they were in danger, they abandoned me.

Since it has already come to this,

there's no need for me to stay loyal to Wu.

Your Majesty,

they are traveling on foot.

I'm sure my brother is still in the territory of An.

I'm sure Brother Dan Yang who's the regent now

hasn't received the news about their escape.

If that's the case, why don't you take advantage of that

and announce to the public that you've made an agreement with my brother?

You agreed to send him back to Wu

and keep me here to be the empress of An.

- Empress... - And with Ze, Mian, Ji, and the other nine cities as dowry.

If you do that,

once he returns to Wu,

he'll get into a fight with Brother Dan Yang over the cities.

In the end,

no matter who wins,

the winner will be greatly weakened.

Then,

they'll have to form an alliance with you

to rebuild their country from scratch.

I remember

that both of your princes are quite a disappointment.

Don't you want a new son?

Then, he can take over Wu

as the son from two countries.

When that happens,

who else will remember that you bought some horses from Northern Pan?

You are quite bold.

If I'm not bold,

how can I fulfill my ambition to be the empress of a country?

No wonder

Wu sent you here

as the Imperial Envoy.

My brother has escaped.

Don't you think I'm successful enough?

You have achieved great success.

But

shouldn't you change how you address yourself?

Don't address yourself as the princess of Wu.

You should address yourself as my empress.

There's no rush.

I can change my form of address

after you've announced your decree.

You are right.

Pass down my decree.

Escort the Princess of Li City to Changhua Palace.

Give her what an empress deserves.

She'll be allowed

to sit on my royal sedan.

Thank you, Your Majesty.

(Chenghe Hall)

Duke Qing, come here.

At the Foreign Nation Embassy,

I've left my favorite...

Contact Yuan Zhou for me

and tell him that I'm fine.

Ask him not to rush back to save me.

We can talk about it after he has sent my brother safely back to Wu.

Are you really a woman?

Ru Yi spent more than two months tutoring me with everything she knows.

If I couldn't trick you,

I would've failed her.

But you could've given me a warning

before you revealed such a shocking piece of information.

You won't save me anyway.

I have to save myself.

You said that Emperor An only cares about what benefits him.

The most valuable thing that I have

is this useless royal bloodline of mine.

When it comes to that,

you are not that different from me, Li Tong Guang.

Do you think it's so easy to be the empress of a country?

Do you think His Majesty is foolish enough

- to fall for your empty... - At least

he is willing to take the bait.

At least

I won't be sent off to the north to be a shepherd.

A few days ago,

Yuan Lu asked me

about what I wanted to do

if I could return to Capital of Wu safely.

I didn't have an answer for him back then.

But now I know.

I don't want

to return to that cold harem,

marry someone who I don't know,

and be a noble lady who knows nothing.

Just like what happened just now.

It feels

so good to hold your fate

in your own hands.

Yuan Zhou said

that you are someone who likes to serve.

So,

instead of supporting the third prince who was birthed by a palace maid,

won't it be better for you

to support a princess's son?

You've planned so far ahead of you.

He doesn't even allow you to stay in the palace.

He doesn't trust you at all.

Yes.

I won't be able to travel freely.

So, you better hurry up

and find Ru Yi's remains so that you can give her

a proper burial.

Otherwise,

don't blame me for slandering you in front of Emperor An.

I'll do my best to give my master a proper funeral.

But

I hope that you can order me around

when you've become the true empress.

Is my royal sedan ready?

Rise!

(Ru Yi.)

(I don't know if I did the right thing or not.)

(But I'm sure)

(that I like how it feels right now.)

I vow

that I won't run away again.

I will become stronger.

I am the Imperial Envoy.

Those who humiliate me

shall die.

I am

Lord Li of Wu.

You already know that Lord Li is a princess, right?

What do you think?

Although the Princess of Li City has a title,

she's just a sacrificial pawn sent by Wu.

So, no matter if it's in terms of power or age,

she's not a good match for you.

And if the new empress really bears you a son,

aren't you afraid

that Wu will use the power that the new empress wields

to take down An?

After all, of all the battles that you've started...

You are cursing me.

I will forever serve you

until the end of my life.

Although my words might be unpleasant to the ear,

they came from a loyal heart.

Deng Hui.

Now, you are the only one

who dares to speak the truth to me.

I'm not just good at saying unpleasant words.

You can still announce the engagement.

But you can twist your words in the edict.

An alliance will be formed between the two countries

through the marriage of the Princess of Li City to An.

Don't forget

that the second prince doesn't have a consort yet.

Compared to an empress, it's easier

to control a crown princess.

Chief.

(Six Realms Hall Branch, Capital of An)

How's Her Highness?

She's fine. She stayed at Duke Qing's Residence two days ago.

Now, she's staying at Changhua Palace.

- I took a good look at her outside of the... - What about Ru Yi?

Any news about Ru Yi?

Where's her body?

In the morning two days ago,

the commander of the Crimson Guard, Deng Hui,

personally cremated her in public at the headquarters of the Crimson Guard.

Miss Jin and I sneaked into the headquarters to watch it.

It was indeed Left Guard Ren.

My condolences, Chief.

I suspected as much.

It's okay.

It's okay.

It's okay.

Both of us live with our lives on the line.

We are used to facing death.

Prepare some food and keep an eye on the palace.

If Her Highness escapes

and leave the palace,

remember to report it to me at once.

Gather our men

and ready our weapons.

Yes, Chief.

What do you want to tell you then?

It'll become meaningless

if I have to say it out loud.

I'll come back in one piece.

Give it a try.

Are you satisfied now?

Turn around and show me.

Again?

Do you like seeing me turning around that much?

Not bad.

- This color is too much. - It's nice.

I look like a groom.

We'll take that.

You can take them all.

Stop nagging.

I'll return safely.

Ru Yi.

After I save Ying,

I'll come and find you.

Urgent report!

Urgent report!

Emperor Wu has escaped!

Urgent report!

Anyone here? I need a new horse!

Anyone here? I need to relay a message!

Emperor Wu escaped from prison. Catch him and take him back.

Thank you. But you can't send this message out anymore.

- Release the Kongming Lantern. - Roger that.

Release the Kongming Lantern!

Shi San, it's safe over there.

Okay.

It's snowing heavily.

We've been pushing on with our journey.

Don't forget to take care of yourself. Have you eaten your candy?

Yuan Zhou is indeed meticulous.

He destroyed all the post houses and pigeonholes along the path to An.

Otherwise, we'll be hunted right now.

Yes.

Shi San.

Let's go and find some food.

Our men must be tired after walking so much for days.

Okay. Let's go.

- I'll get some water. - Okay.

- Ding Hui! - Yes.

Come.

- Take two men with us and let's go and get some water. - Roger that.

Where are we?

Your Majesty, we'll reach He County after another day of walking.

He County?

Yes.

The place where we were defeated by An.

Finally, our journey

is going to come to an end.

The victor becomes a king and the loser a bandit.

I've failed the people of Wu.

We can take a good rest when we reach He County.

I promise you

that you can rest well there.

The royal sedan.

The Princess of Li City?
