[Kill My Sins] [This is a work of fiction]

Love, romance,

wealth and fame

all vanish

like smoke.

All along,

power

is the only thing

that lasts.

[Episode 29] [What Goes Around Comes Around]

What's new out there,

Nichang?

Still no news from Yuan Shaocheng.

Wu Youjing, as we expected,

has managed to fix

the salt shop accounts.

But I wonder

why Wu Youjing

hasn't made a move.

Fortunately, they regarded He Maoshan

as the traitor

and did not suspect Yuan Shaocheng.

Unfortunately, this plan went down the drain.

How to fight

those scums in the future

is what we need to plan now.

Li Jun made a fuss in the black market,

which alarmed the Empress.

Thus, Wu Youjing

dared not act rashly.

But does the Empress

really not know

about

his actions regarding the official salt?

Both medicines

have their own uses

and strengths.

If one medicine is used too much,

the patient

will not be cured.

As the saying goes,

a light symptom requires immediate treatment,

while a severe illness should wait.

You might not

understand right now.

In the future,

you will know what I mean.

After a year,

now

I understand the Empress's intention.

Enough of the riddles.

Tell us about it.

After the Empress ascended to the throne,

she encountered both internal

and external troubles.

She needed Wu Youjing

to restrain the Li Family

and her son Wu Ankang

to intimidate the enemy.

That's why

she did nothing about his doing

on the official salt.

But Wu Youjing didn't stop there.

He bribed officials,

coveted the Crown Prince's position,

and even switched official salt with illegal salt,

which

crossed the line the Empress drew.

That means

by making such a fuss

we gave the Empress a reason

to punish him.

His greed grows day by day.

Wu Youjing even wants

to use his son's merits

to gain greater power.

What do you think

Her Majesty will do?

Of course, to get rid of him.

Anyway,

this is good news.

I am finally

relieved.

These days,

let's not make any more moves.

Whoever can remain calm

will win.

[Two Months Later]

Report!

Your Majesty,

a great victory on the northern border!

General Wu masterfully orchestrated a deception,

making Shuodan believe the city was undefended.

With surprise attacks,

he routed Shuodan's massive army of 200,000.

The remaining enemy soldiers

were forced to retreat north of the Mang Mountain.

The Khan of Shuodan requested a ceasefire

and a new alliance agreement.

We...

We won!

We won!

Hear my decree:

Our armies shall be rewarded.

Wu Ankang receives the title of Marquis Zhongyong

and a thousand-household town.

The army is to return without delay.

Under the protection of Heaven's majesty,

we congratulate Your Majesty.

Xian'er,

how long have you

been serving me?

This year

is the 14th year.

It's been so long.

When I first met you, you were small,

but very clever

and talkative.

I loved

listening to you talk

about politics the most.

It was just

a child's silly talk.

Your Majesty, you have been so forgiving,

never once blaming me,

and always guiding me.

To me,

you are not only a sovereign,

but also a good teacher.

Since

I ascended to the throne,

I have been consumed by work,

day and night.

Several years passed.

When I look back,

the people around me are all gone.

Whenever I felt nostalgic,

I would come to this room

to see the late ruler,

seeking solace.

You have read a lot of history books.

Tell me

your opinion

on the family.

Those who govern the families

often become

incompetent and lazy

after only three generations

of being virtuous and wealthy.

I need to govern both the country

and the family.

Managing a family

is not easier than governing a country.

Being a good ruler

may not

necessarily make good a parent.

My sons

are all afraid of me.

I can

only continue to make them afraid.

Sages stand

at the highest place,

taking the world as their own responsibility,

and sacrificing the small for the big.

How can others understand

the difficulties you face?

I'm glad

you understand.

Your father, the Prince of Kangping, is proud.

But pride alone is nothing.

But he doesn't

restrain himself.

He was like this with the Censor case.

And with the salt issue, he was no different.

Your Majesty,

my father is just concerned

about extending

the reign of Great Feng.

Please forgive my father,

Your Majesty.

He is my nephew

and has

such good children as you and Ankang.

I won't punish him too harshly.

When Ankang returns,

I will

reward him again.

And I'll change the title, the Prince of Kangping,

to the Crown Prince's Tutor

to save him

from the humiliation.

I appreciate

Your Majesty's forgiveness

on behalf of my father.

Save me from the humiliation?

The Crown Prince's Tutor is just a title.

The Empress wants to strip me of real power.

By then, I will be imprisoned

in the capital.

Maybe there is still a chance.

No chance.

The Empress has made up her mind

not to depose the Crown Prince.

I devoted myself wholeheartedly

to Great Feng.

I have

made great contributions to the Empress.

But in the end,

she will return the throne to the Li family.

The Empress still cares about family.

She wants to protect you

and the Wu family.

The rulers

are the most ruthless.

The Empress has taken action against me.

How would she allow you and Kang

to continue to have great power?

One day,

when the Li family succeeds to the throne,

our family

will collapse completely.

Her Majesty has made up her mind.

What else can we do?

Do you

dare to rebel?

Why not?

It's...

It's an improper way

to ascend to the throne.

I'm afraid it won't convince the world.

Those who steal small shall be punished.

Those who steal a country shall be the ruler.

As long as there is a suitable reason,

it is not treason.

But the Empress has the Imperial Guards

and other court guards.

What's our chance like?

Your sets of armor

came from Xian Guangping,

General of the Left Yulin Royal Guard,

right?

You were spying on me?

Not spying.

Protecting.

I even know

that you secretly created Thunder Fire

that can instantly explode.

With Xian Guangping,

we can use the troops

of the Left Yulin Royal Guard.

Kang

is leading the troops back.

Just in time to work with us.

This is our only chance

of winning.

Once Kang is removed from military power,

everything

will be meaningless.

What a pity for this gift

to the Empress.

Ping'an.

Great news.

The war with Shuodan on the northern border...

We won.

You've heard of that?

Where's Mrs. Gu?

Master Suxuan is back at the Kangping Mansion.

She went to monitor them.

We just won.

And you are so eager to take action.

Is it because you want to see Yuan Shaocheng?

Of course, we should celebrate

such a big victory in the war.

I can

also inquire

about the court affairs

so that we can figure out

what to do next.

Okay.

I'll send a message for you

and ask him to meet you here.

I'm off.

Come back.

Although

Wu Youjing has fixed the account,

you still need to find a way

to give the evidence we have

to Li Jun.

Only by making him

pay more attention to the Prince of Kangping,

can he give me a break.

Shaocheng.

We have just won the battle.

If you don't raise your glass

to celebrate with us,

who else will you toast with?

Who else could it be?

It's been over a month.

He hasn't walked

as fast as he did today.

I see you guys

are also doing nothing else. I see you guys

are also doing nothing else.

Why don't you

come with me to Mang Gutter

and check the Chinese New Year's goods?

I need to go visit Mr. Chang

and feed Blackie.

I'll get going.

I need to wash my kid's diapers.

See you.

[Yuan Mansion]

Mr. Yuan,

in the battle on the northern border,

our army achieved a great victory.

General Wu was conferred the title of Marquis Zhongyong.

The Prince of Kangping would like to invite you

to his mansion for a family banquet to celebrate.

Mr. Yuan,

are you up to something else?

No.

Upon learning that General Wu has achieved a new victory,

I am preparing to go to the Kangping Mansion

to congratulate the Prince of Kangping.

[Kangping Mansion]

Are these two new here?

The previous servants fell ill,

so we had someone to fill the vacancies.

Please.

Madam.

Didn't you go to the Taoist temple?

Why did you come back so early?

I'm feeling a bit tired.

So I came back after finishing the prayer.

Since Madam is tired,

escort her to her room

to rest.

Yes, sir.

Madam,

during your praying today,

did you recite

the Sacred Edict of Lord Taiyi, the Savior of Suffering?

Madam, please.

Mr. Yuan,

this way.

Sacred Edict?

The Savior of Suffering?

Your Highness,

I heard about the victory General Wu had won.

I came

to congratulate Your Highness.

[Kangping Mansion]

It shouldn't be you offering congratulations,

but rather, it should be me congratulating you.

I'm afraid I'm at a loss.

Didn't you say

there was a traitor around me?

You were right.

I finally know

who the traitor is.

Who is he?

He Maoshan.

Why is it him?

He has always been loyal to you.

Yeah.

Why is it him?

Both Huang Qi and Huang Yimin

were brought by him.

After the Market Bureau's ledgers were lost,

Li Jun went to the black market,

and he

was also there.

I had been generous to him.

So I gave him a last ride on his final journey.

But upon careful thinking,

there should

be another brain behind him.

Your Highness,

it's not like what you think.

I have prepared a glass of liquor for you.

Would you drink it yourself

or should I help you?

Mr. Yuan,

the liquor bestowed by the Prince of Kangping.

Please.

After all this fuss,

there is no sign of Ye Ping'an

and no evidence of the Prince of Kangping.

A bunch of useless losers.

Stop.

[Receipt]

[Wang Hongchun]

[Purchased 200 dan of official salt]

This is evidence

that the Prince of Kangping used illegal salt as official salt

for profit.

[Kangping Mansion]

I can drink this liquor,

but I won't accept the accusation.

You won't?

If it weren't for your collusion with Ye Ping'an

to set traps for me,

how could I

always be one step behind her?

I like people with ambition.

But it's crucial to set your sights on the right goals,

or you could end up regretting your choices.

The business

was discussed between you and Huang Yimin

alone in person.

As for the ledger,

I know nothing about it.

Besides,

from the beginning,

I didn't agree

with dealing with illegal salt smugglers.

On the contrary, Xian'er was very proactive.

Can your own daughter

also be suspicious?

Your Highness,

making you suspicious of me

is precisely Ye Ping'an's plan.

I have no family

or support.

All I can rely on

is you.

Why should I destroy my own foundation?

But I'm already having my doubts.

What should I do?

You are useless anyway.

Maybe just go join He Maoshan.

I am not useless.

I have found

the whereabouts of Ye Ping'an.

Give me a chance.

I can prove my loyalty.

Stop walking around.

I have already had

my men get the ledgers and receipts

to Li Jun.

What time is it now?

It's almost the hour of Shen.

Yuan Shaocheng hasn't arrived yet,

so he must be busy with something.

I know.

I'm just not used to waiting.

Mr. Yuan has sent a message.

He asked you to meet at the bamboo forest east of the city

for a discussion.

The bamboo forest east of the city?

Yes.

Although it's not far,

why did he suddenly change the place?

Well...

I have no idea.

Okay.

I'll be on my way.

Okay.

Ping'an.

Nichang,

follow me in secret.

OK.

[Tomb of Lu Danxin. Tomb of Cailian]

Impossible.

Shaocheng will never

betray Ye Ping'an.

When he comes back, let's ask him.

Won't everything be clear then?

I'm afraid Mr. Yuan isn't coming back for the time being.

Why?

Can Wu Youjing

imprison him?

I understand what you mean.

Yuan Shaocheng wouldn't do this

unless absolutely necessary.

He rescheduled their meeting

at the bamboo forest at the last minute.

Ping'an suspected that something was wrong.

That's why she let me follow along.

Where did you lose her?

Their people are very alert.

After I arrived in the South Market,

they all disappeared.

Then I'll take someone to find them in the South Market.

Wait.

The South Market is so big.

When will you find them?

Someone

just brought this to the door.

This circled place is located

in the South Market.

Is Ping'an being held there?

Who sent it?

The person did not provide a name.

This could be a message

that Shaocheng managed to convey.

[South Market]

If I had known it,

I would have gotten myself

a protective talisman.

Mr. Yuan,

let's go.

Protective talisman?

Is he trying to tell me

that someone needs protection?

Miss Wu,

we have captured Ye Ping'an.

How should we deal with her?

Send her to Fengrao Salt Shop.

Okay.

This

is the salt shop

we monitored before.

Why did they bring Ping'an there?

Is there

a hidden chamber in the salt shop?

Xian'er.

They are people

whom I have admired since childhood.

[Madam Xian] Madame Xian ruled the Lingnan Islands,

and they compiled a biography of her.

[Princess Zhao of Pingyang] Princess Pingyang led women soldiers

and had a funeral with military honors after her death.

[Mi Bazi] Empress Dowager Xuan,

[Empress Dowager Feng] Empress Dowager Feng

and Empress Dowager Lyu

[Empress Dowager Lyu] could manage military affairs

and monopolize power.

They were only one step away

from the throne.

But only the Empress

truly claimed the throne.

Xian'er,

I was wrong.

I've failed you.

Actually, every time you came to see me,

I hoped

you could stay a little longer.

I was too weak.

In order to escape from the past, I left home

and abandoned you at a young age,

leaving you with no one to rely on.

Mother.

Stop.

Xian'er.

Your father is plotting rebellion.

I can't stop him,

but I can save you

and your brother.

Everything hasn't happened yet.

Come with me to the palace

and sincerely seek forgiveness from the Empress.

Her Majesty will not be too harsh

on you and Kang.

It's not too late yet.

No, there's no turning back now.

Mother,

in the past month,

I have been very happy

to be by your side.

The times are turbulent.

I think

it's better for you to return to the mountain.

After all, you never left the mountain

these years.

You know nothing

about what happened.

I won't leave.

If you don't go,

I will beg the Empress with my life

for her forgiveness for you.

Xian'er,

let me talk to your mother.

Wu Youjing,

back then, you instructed Hai Yiping

to fabricate the Censor case

in order to cover up the salt incident.

Now you intend to commit the crime of treason.

Have you ever considered our children?

Don't you feel any guilt?

I have no regrets about what happened.

I only feel bad for failing you.

If I could turn back time,

I would never let you go to the palace

to plead for me,

which made you feel guilty

in your heart.

Until now, you still think

that I left you

just because I feel guilty in my heart?

We are a couple.

You have done

such despicable things.

Even if I didn't do anything, I am guilty.

I'm guilty of not being able to persuade you

and failing to stop you.

Whenever I see you,

I feel guilty.

For so many years,

you refuse to leave the mountain

or to be my wife.

We are not a couple.

Today,

I will fulfill your wish.

From now on,

no matter

what outrageous things I do,

[Letter of Divorce. Wu Youjing]

it'll have nothing to do with you.

Take care of her,

and send her up the mountain immediately.

- Yes, sir. - Yes, sir.

The underground is cold and gloomy.

Pride alone cannot

withstand the cold.

Come on.

Bring a fire here.

- Yes, Miss Wu. - Yes, Miss Wu.

I have been playing this game alone

for over a month now.

I have heard that you are good at games,

but I have never had the chance to play against you before.

Why

don't we each make three moves

and put an end to this game?

The black pieces look imposing,

but really, they are dangerous.

People plan.

They

also achieve.

Rather than claiming I'm wrong,

it's even more absurd

that Her Majesty intends to pass

the throne to the Li family.

Long breath leads to a long life.

You don't seem

to intend to take a breath for yourself.

If I'm not wrong,

you must have done

a lot of things like risking your life.

So you should understand

that from death comes new life.

You should know

that before ascending to the throne,

the Empress also had the experience

of almost being deposed.

I kept you

so that you could witness with your own eyes

how I ascended to the throne.

It seems like I won.

There's no need

to continue with this game.

Xian'er,

do you believe one can glimpse others' dreams?

I saw it all.

My brother has always been straightforward.

Do you have full confidence

in his decision?

Last year,

he learned the truth about the Censor case.

Although it was difficult to accept at the time,

he ultimately chose

to conceal everything

and protect the Wu family.

Now,

he should be more aware

of my good intentions.

He is a man of great feeling.

He will never abandon our family.

Don't worry.

I have already written

a letter to Kang.

No one knows a son better than his father.

If I can

ascend to the throne,

in the future,

you must do your best

to assist Kang

and perpetuate the prosperity of Great Feng.

General Wu.

My son,

as you read this letter,

you must be quite taken aback.

I want

to ascend to the throne.

You have an army at your disposal.

By then,

wait outside the city.

Against the rebels,

we'll fight together.

My great cause

will last for generations.

If successful,

Great Feng will continue to thrive,

and you will be the successor.

If defeated,

our family will be overthrown.

You and I,

together with the Wu family,

are bound by blood.

We rise and fall together.

I know your kindness,

and I also know

that you will not

watch your family suffer slaughter.

The ship

has sailed.

I am

eagerly looking forward to

achieving great success

with my son.

General Wu,

we won the battle.

When we return to the capital,

the Empress will reward us greatly.

I heard that she'd bestow upon you

the title of Marquis Zhongyong.

General.

Are you okay?

Reward greatly?

I wish

that I had died

in Mang Mountain

so that my loyalty

and filial piety

could be both honored.

General,

how could you say such things?

What...

What's going on?

Nothing.

I'm just tired.

You may leave.

Yes, sir.

Xian'er.

Your Majesty.

What are you thinking?

Recently,

as Chinese New Year approaches,

I've been thinking about

how lively it will be.

Oh?

Your playful nature has returned.

Your Majesty,

during previous Lantern Festivals,

you were accompanied by prominent officials

at grand banquets in the Eternal Pavilion.

These banquets were all prepared by senior officials.

They lacked novelty.

This year,

I would like to recommend myself

and organize a banquet

for you.

I'm indeed tired of the food

prepared

by those old guys.

Your request

is approved.

Your Majesty, I appreciate it.

[Colophonium]

[Charcoal]

[Saltpeter]

General Xian.

Miss Wu.

These days,

you've all done a great job.

We were

all saved

by you on the battlefields.

It's our honor

to serve you.

Xian'er,

the Thunder Fire

is almost ready.

Starting tomorrow,

it can be shipped out.

Okay.

The Prince of Kangping

has found out, hasn't he?

My father wants to be the Crown Prince,

but I can tell

that the Empress has no intention of doing so.

Find a way

to let him discover

the sets of armor and the Thunder fire.

When his dream of becoming the Crown Prince

is shattered,

he can only rely on me.

Okay.

In the end,

we finally came to this point.

Shortly after Empress Dowager Lyu and Empress Dowager Dou

returned the throne,

their families were slaughtered by their successors.

Since the Empress is determined

to give back the throne to the Li family,

the Wu family's future

is clear.

So...

we must act first.

Please allow me to say something bold.

Compared to the Prince of Kangping,

I have always believed

that you're more suitable to be a ruler.

Things are about to change

in the capital.

General Xian,

will you stand with me?

My heart...

and my duty

are with you.
