[Strange Tales of Tang Dynasty]

[Episode 32]

There are many classes in the Blessing Temple now.

Teachers there

are the best in the country.

This is a rare opportunity.

It's not difficult for you

to learn martial arts from me.

But if you want

to be as erudite as Su Wuming,

it won't be easy.

Xue Huan,

whether you can make great achievements

and become a strong man

in the future

depends on your choice today.

I know

that studying is painstaking,

but I have great expectations of you.

That's why I made this choice

for you.

Xue Huan,

your master is right.

I've known Lu Lingfeng for so long,

but I never knew until this moment

that he's better at lecturing than me.

Xue Huan,

listen to your master.

By the way,

go to the Memorial Temple of Master Di

to find that little beggar.

His name is Niu Su.

He's a smart boy.

Take him to the Blessing Temple with you

and see to it that he studies hard.

You'll both follow the right path in the future.

I will often come to Dongdu to see you.

Her Highness has sent someone

to the Blessing Temple for you.

Don't keep them waiting.

Master,

I don't want to leave you.

Neither do I.

[Blessing Temple]

Follow me.

Off he went.

Off he went.

But if I miss him,

I can visit him anytime.

After all, in the list given by Minister Xing,

there are over 100 court ladies in Luoyang

who have used the Face Flowers.

They haven't taken the antidote yet.

I have to stay in Luoyang.

I can't leave now.

No course is nobler than saving lives.

Fed,

I respect you from the bottom of my heart.

Su Wuming,

what did the Princess

talk to you today?

Court affairs.

She didn't ask about you.

[Sky-scraping Tower, Chang'an]

It's spectacular!

Unbelievable.

Magnificent.

Hurray for the great Tang!

Hurray for the Sky-scraping Tower!

The building of the tower

started in the first year of Emperor Gaozong's reign.

Was it in the same year

that Empress Wu Zetian was named Heavenly Empress

and referred to as the Two Saints with Emperor Gaozong?

The Japanese envoy

knows a lot about Tang.

You're right.

[Du Ming, Administrator of Yongzhou]

It was in that year.

Almost 40 years have passed.

The Sky-scraping Tower is so great.

No country

other than Tang

can build

such a great tower.

Nearly 40 years.

Well…

Why did it take so long to build the tower?

Yeah.

Only the foundation was laid at first.

During the reign of Heavenly Empress

and his son Emperor Zhongzong,

the building of the tower was halted.

It was after Queen Wei ascended the throne

that the building was resumed.

However, it stopped again when only half of the tower

was finished because of the ousting of Queen Wei.

The building of the second half

started a year ago

under the charge of the Princess.

It was just finished last month.

Look!

The completion celebration

will be held at the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival.

At that time,

a magic show will be presented here.

The Emperor of Tang

will invite all officials,

envoys of different countries,

and the people of Chang'an

to enjoy the show together.

As far as I know,

the magic show was banned

by Emperor Gaozong back then.

Yes.

That's because some magic tricks

are too dangerous and bloody.

Emperor Gaozong did ban the show.

But this time,

His Majesty is determined

to bring the show back in the completion celebration.

It means that the country is in peace now.

I believe this magic show

will be an unprecedented one.

Mr. Yuwen,

you are the main architect

of the Sky-scraping Tower.

[Yuwen Mukai, Vice Minister of Royal Buildings]

This tower has three floors underground

and 33 floors above the ground.

Why is that?

The 33 floors above the ground

is an allusion

to the Heaven of 33

in Buddhism.

Plus the three floors underground,

there are 36 floors in total.

They're an allusion

to the 36 Heavens in Chinese myths.

I've heard

that there is one floor call Beyond Heaven

at the top of the tower.

That's right.

If this tower

is the greatest building in Chang'an,

the Beyond Heaven

is a shining star

in the sky above Chang'an.

Today,

can we have the honor of visiting the Beyond Heaven

and looking at Chang'an from the top of it?

Yes. Can we have the honor of that?

Of course not.

To go to the Beyond Heaven,

one must have His Majesty's permission.

Coming to the Beyond Heaven

with Your Majesty

and looking at Chang'an from the top of it

is such a great honor for me.

[Emperor of Tang]

I heard from Du Ming a few days ago

that the envoys of various countries

are all looking forward to the magic show on the Mid-Autumn Festival.

They all hope

to be invited by Your Majesty

to the Beyond Heaven

to look at the prosperous Chang'an after the show.

I bet the Sky-scraping Tower

has no equals

in the whole world.

It took nearly 40 years to finish building this tower.

[Hong Han, Chamberlain]

Its design and construction

are both brilliant.

To ensure that this tower is unparalleled,

His Majesty ordered Yuwen Mukai

to burn the blueprints.

In that case,

no other countries will be able to replicate this masterpiece.

It was so wise a decision, Your Majesty.

If our plan succeeds,

everyone contributing to it will be invited here for celebration.

At that time,

you'll definitely be one of them, Assistant Minister Pei.

His Majesty

thinks highly of you, Assistant Minister Pei.

Among all the officials,

you are the first one

to come to the Beyond Heaven

with His Majesty.

Your Majesty,

I feel so honored.

Assistant Minister Pei,

look.

It seems to be a bird.

No.

Its wings

are different from a bird's.

Is it a wooden bird?

Your Majesty,

should the Imperial Guards

shoot it down?

Don't make a fuss.

Even if it's a wooden bird,

there's nothing to worry about.

Word has spread

that I'll hold a magic show

on the Mid-Autumn Festival.

I've heard that magicians from all over the world

are arriving in the capital one after another.

Maybe that

is some magician

practicing.

[Government Office]

Archers.

[Government Office]

What happened?

A big bird just flew by.

It seemed to be made of wood.

Arrows were shot from it.

Look.

[Sass]

Sass.

He sneaked into Chang'an

under the pretext of attending the magic show

and had the nerve to send a provoking letter by the wooden bird.

[Wan An, Minister of Justice of Yongzhou]

Is this Sass

the greatest magician ever

who has disappeared

for more than a decade?

Yes.

He's a magician,

and also a killer.

A killer?

He threatened to settle the score with the court.

What did he mean?

Settle the score with the court?

The court has been waiting for him.

The crimes he committed

have never been forgotten.

He's tall.

Father.

You've just been back for days.

Instead of staying home,

why did you go out?

I've been away from Chang'an for over a year.

I want to see what's new.

That required you to dress up as a man?

That required you

to go to the camp of the Imperial Guards?

Father,

you sent someone to follow me?

Xijun,

come and have a seat.

I held a nether marriage for you.

His Majesty has known about it.

His Majesty so benevolent

that he has forgiven me.

You love Lu Lingfeng,

and followed him to Nanzhou.

It's no news

in the capital now.

The court has been talking about it.

That's my personal affair.

You're my daughter.

Your personal affairs

will very likely be used against me.

As you know,

Lu Lingfeng is on the Crown Prince's side.

There are seven Prime Ministers

in the court now.

At least four of them

have sided with the Princess.

Because of Lu Lingfeng,

they may stand against me.

Well…

Besides,

you taking Su Wuming as your sworn brother

was a half-baked decision.

What's wrong with that?

You have no idea

of the consequences of it.

Su Wuming

has a special relationship with the Princess.

She promoted him to be the Administrator of Luozhou

without securing His Majesty's consent.

It has aroused a heated controversy

in the court.

With him as your sworn brother,

how will those siding with the Crown Prince

think of me?

Father,

you're afraid

of offending the Princess because of Lu Lingfeng

and also worry about antagonizing

the Crown Prince because of Su Wuming?

Well...

People in the court

have sided either with the Crown Prince

or with the Princess.

As the Assistant Minister of Personnel Administration,

I feel torn between them

and have no way of please both sides.

Father,

if that's the case,

why are you delighted?

I...

Do I look delighted?

Have you forgotten

that I've been learning drawing since young.

I'm very observant.

You're smiling.

That means you're delighted.

I'm delighted

because of something delightful.

I, Pei Jian,

has swore loyalty to the Emperor of Tang.

His Majesty

is putting more and more trust in me.

Xijun,

I know

you went to see Lu Lingfeng today.

Are you sure he's back in Chang'an?

We left Luoyang together,

but he said something urgent came up

and rode back first.

Although you came back

through the public road

which is not that dangerous,

he's the General

and shouldn't have let you

come back to Chang'an alone.

He should've stayed with you and protected you.

You are not going to see

someone like him again.

Father,

it's not like what you think.

He entrusted me

to the wife of the prefectural governor

who was coming to Chang'an too before he left.

That didn't make him any better.

After all,

I'm decades of years older than you.

The court

will see turbulences very soon.

You can't be too careful.

Xijun,

for the sake of my safety,

don't contact Lu Lingfeng

for the time being,

okay?

I beg you.

[Eastern Palace]

Greetings, Your Highness.

Rise.

Your Highness.

Lu Lingfeng,

how have you been

these days in Chang'an?

I feel refreshed.

Good.

I asked you to come back to Chang'an

but didn't summon you immediately

because I wanted you to have a good rest.

Next,

I have a very important task

for you.

Anything,

Your Highness.

I can't wait to hear about it.

The completion celebration for the Sky-scraping Tower

will be held at the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival.

Have you heard about it?

Yes.

I've also heard about the magic show.

Once I arrived in Chang'an,

I noticed many weird people

on the streets.

They were probably magicians

coming for

the magic show, right?

Yes.

Even

the Tocharian man, Sass,

a magician and also a killer

who is renowned all over the country

has sneaked into Chang'an.

Sass?

The deputy supervisor of the Concubinus Institution?

The Concubinus Institution back then

was controlled by

Zhang Yizhi, Heavenly Empress's favorite male companion.

They established a branch

in the Magic House in Luoyang

and gathered a large group of enchanters

who were used

to eliminate their dissidents in the court.

The man leading them

was Sass.

Your Highness,

Su Wuming once told me

that Di Renjie's adamant objection

forced Heavenly Empress to abolish the Concubinus Institution.

The Concubinus Institution became the Fengchen Institution.

It was just a change of the name.

Su Wuming also said

that the Sass case

was the last case Detective Di was in charge of.

Right.

Sass was responsible

for many deaths in and out of the court.

Detective Di risked provoking

Heavenly Empress

and secretly arrested Sass

and his underlings.

Unfortunately, most of his underlings

were captured,

but Sass escaped from Luoyang.

Now, he openly

sent a letter by a wooden bird

to challenge the court.

The Mid-Autumn Festival is approaching.

I don't want His Majesty and aunt

to be threatened by Sass.

I will definitely

bring Sass to justice

before the Mid-Autumn Festival.

I'm sorry

that I summoned you back to Chang'an

but can't give you a post immediately.

To avoid any mishap,

you should keep

the arrest of Sass quiet.

You also have to

find assistance yourself.

But Lu Tong

will help you in secret.

Understood.

Speaking of Sass,

about half a year ago,

his biography

appeared in Chang'an.

Someone actually wrote a biography for him.

I found it unbelievable too.

The author not only

wrote for the sinful killer,

but also mentioned

many things about Heavenly Empress in the biography.

Therefore, it was banned before long

and all its copies were destroyed.

There may be omitted ones.

I suggest you look for this book

and see if there is any clue in it.

Thank you, Great General.

Take my badge

and deploy your former subordinates as you see fit.

If you need any help,

let me know.

Thank you, Great General.

It's really you.

You're back.

Guo Zhuang, my good brother.

General,

how have you been in the past year?

I've been fine.

What about you?

Not bad.

After you left,

all we did

was carrying out patrols.

Nothing exciting.

By the way,

I've heard about your remarkable achievements

in Luoyang.

The Crown Prince

summoned you back this time.

You must have been offered a high position, right?

I'm still not in any official position now,

but I need to do something important.

Count me in.

Send some reliable men

to find a book.

A book?

What book?

The Tale of Sass.

[Yongzhou Administrator's Residence]

Administrator Du,

look at this.

Is this

Sass?

Yes.

Do you think this portrait resembles him?

In a way, yes.

Where did you get this portrait?

Sass was once

the deputy supervisor of the Concubinus Institution.

Many people have met him.

I found about seven people

who have seen him

and brought them to the painter.

Then I got this portrait.

Good for you, Wan An.

You're brave.

You're also smart.

[Seeking Inn]

S-Sir!

We're here for investigations.

Search every room.

Go.

Yes.

Recently,

has a Tocharian magician

in his fifties

stayed in your inn?

Look at this portrait.

Have you seen him?

Well…

What?

You know him?

A distinguished guest lives upstairs.

He usually

covers his face with a scarf.

But when I entered the room

to serve him,

I caught a glimpse of his face.

He looks quite like the man

in the portrait.

This...

This...

I don't know

he's a wanted criminal, officer.

Guards.

Yes.

Dismiss our men by the gates.

Tell the rest to stop searching.

Hide around the inn.

We'll wait for him to show up.

Yes.

Is the person in the portrait you?

I know

you won't confess so easily.

Take him down!

Don't let Sass get away!

Chase him!

Yes.

You are so fast.

You're quite somebody, young man.

Sass.

You finally say something.

Since you know I'm Sass,

aren't you afraid of death?

How dare you!

I am the Minister of Justice of Yongzhou.

You have been a wanted criminal

of the government for years.

Surrender now.

Minister Wan.

Minister Wan.

Minister Wan.

Minister Wan.

Minister Wan.

Lock the surroundings.

Yes.

Who is the dead?

Who are you?

The Imperial Guards are investigating the case. Tell me the truth.

Minister Wan died.

Sass killed him.

What?

What did you say?

Who killed him? Say it again.

We patrolled with Minister Wan today

to catch Sass.

We blocked him

in the Seeking Inn just now.

But he used illusionary magic

to release many bats

and ran away.

Minister Wan took the lead to chase him.

When we saw them,

Minister Wan was...

-Go. -Don't catch me.

Don't catch me!

Don't catch me!

-I didn't do anything. -Go.

What happened?

General Lu.

We found him in the corner over there.

The corner over there?

Did you see

anything just now?

I...

I...

It's just a small trick.

I know you know illusionary magic.

You killed people with bats a moment ago.

Now you want to escape with tricks again.

Do you think I'm a kid?

Then?

Then,

I was too scared to see

a dead person.

Come here.

Is this the person you saw?

They look alike

but

I'm not sure.

I heard it was

what Sass looked like 12 years ago.

Maybe he looks older now.

It's not a matter of age.

I can't describe it.

Anyway,

they look alike

but

something is different.

[Pei's Residence]

Who is there?

It's me, Lu Lingfeng.

Why are you here

in the middle of the night?

Aren't you afraid that my father will know?

This is an emergency.

Lu Lingfeng has a request.

I have been looking for you for days.

But I couldn't find you.

I didn't expect you to come here alone.

Come in.

This is inappropriate.

I'll say it here.

I want you to draw a portrait for me.

Whose portrait?

Tonight,

Wan An, the Minister of Justice of Yongzhou,

was killed.

The murderer is suspected to be

Sass, a Tocharian killer who uses illusionary magic.

But we're not sure yet.

There is a witness.

He is a little beggar.

He's about the same age as Xue Huan.

I just don't know

how to bring him to your residence.

That's easy.

Tomorrow,

take him to the East Market and sell him.

I'll buy him.

Great.

I'll let Guo Zhuang

take that beggar

to the East Market and wait for you there.

This clue is very important to me.

Sorry to bother you this late.

Goodbye.

How arrogant!

He's too arrogant!

Yes.

Wan An

was well-versed in both literature and martial arts.

Unexpectedly, he died in the hands of Sass.

We need a capable man now

to take over Wan An's work.

Assistant Minister Pei, you are right.

That's why I came here

this late.

Administrator Du.

Is there a suitable candidate

you can recommend?

Not really.

But the Mid-Autumn Festival is coming.

His Majesty is going to hold a magic show.

And Sass

sent a letter by a wooden bird to provoke the imperial court.

Now Chang'an needs talents.

Assistant Minister Pei.

Please find a talent who can help me.

But

the Minister of Justice of Yongzhou

is a low but powerful position.

I'm afraid

someone has been targeting this position.

[East Market]

Why do you

seem to be uneasy?

What?

Since you don't want to come with me,

why did you stalk me secretly before?

I was ordered by Assistant Minister Pei.

I had no choice.

Butler,

buy this servant for me.

Miss.

-We don't need more people. -But I need.

During the trip to the south in the past year,

Xue Huan was always by my side.

But this time he didn't come back to Chang'an.

I'm not used to it.

Buy him for me

so that you don't have to hang out with me.

You'll be at ease.

Yes, Miss.

That man is this tall

with beard on his face.

He has

a scar by his eyes

about this long.

By the way,

he has a hood on his head.

His hair is also very long.

He was facing the sky.

He opened his mouth

and his eyes were wide open.

He looked terrified.

Please

put this matter in mind, Assistant Minister Pei.

I shall take my leave.

OK.

With all due respect,

although Yongzhou covers the region of the capital,

the Minister of Justice of Yongzhou

is just

a seventh-rank official.

But Regimental Commander Wei

serves as a fifth-rank official in the Princess' Palace.

Why do you want a seventh-rank official position?

This

is kind of unbelievable.

This is Her Highness' idea.

For the safety of the Tang Dynasty,

and for His Majesty and Her Highness,

why can't I replace my fifth-rank official

with a seventh-rank one?

Regimental Commander Wei has a high moral integrity.

I admire you.

Assistant Minister Pei, please take it seriously

and fulfill my wish as soon as possible.

Assistant Minister Pei.

Please excuse me for

going straight to the main hall.

Mr. Bai.

You look anxious.

Is His Highness

looking for me?

I heard that Wan An, the Minister of Justice of Youngzhou,

died last night.

Yes.

Rumor has it that

he was killed by Sass who sneaked into the capital.

His Highness was very worried.

After careful consideration,

I have a recommendation

for the position of the Minister of Justice.

Please grant my wish.

His Highness wants to recommend someone too?

Too?

Did Wei Fenghua come here just now

also for this?

No.

It's a long story.

I wonder

who is recommended by His Highness?

Former General of the Imperial Guards,

Lu Lingfeng.

He really went back to Chang'an?

What?

Assistant Minister Pei is close to General Lu?

That'll be easier.

No.

Both sides want the same position.

It's really hard

for me as the Assistant Minister of Personnel Administration.

I know you have worries.

That's right.

Her Highness is powerful now.

Among the seven Prime Ministers,

four are Her Highness' subordinates.

But as talents,

we should be more visionary.

Anyway,

as the Crown Prince,

His Highness is the foundation of the country.

I hope you can think it through.

Yes. Yes.

Goodbye.

Okay.

This nose

is too small.

And the eyebrows are not thick enough.

The beard

is not long enough.

Xijun.

Are you drawing?

Who is he?

Where did you get him?

This is the new servant I bought today.

I haven't taught him manners yet.

Leave.

Who are you drawing?

I heard

that Sass, who uses illusionary magic to kill people,

assassinated Wan An, the Minister of Justice of Yonghzhou

in public last night.

I want to draw

his portrait according to my imagination.

By the way, Father.

As Sass served as the deputy supervisor of the Concubinus Institution,

you should know him.

Please have a look.

Does this look like him?

Not really.

Not at all?

This

is just similar in appearance,

but totally different from him in reality.

Sass

is a handsome Tocharian man.

He's intelligent,

so his eyes

are full of wisdom.

Xijun.

Go inside.

I have something to tell you.

Xijun.

Chang'an is not safe now.

I think

you must have the chance to meet Lu Lingfeng.

You have to persuade him to leave Chang'an as soon as possible.

I know you only care about him.

It's hard to let him go.

But

I can't let my daughter

ruin her life.

Father, you mean

you won't grant the position of the Minister of Justice

to Lu Lingfeng?

Regimental Commander Wei from the Princess's Palace

is a fifth-rank official.

Now,

he wants to have this seventh-rank official.

Lu Lingfeng was the General of the Imperial Guards.

He was a four-rank official.

Don't put it that way.

Now the Crown Prince and Princess

are at odds.

Chang'an will be in chaos at any time.

Lu Lingfeng thinks he's a talent for the country,

and is loyal to His Highness.

If he were granted

the position of the Minister of Justice of Yongzhou,

he would be in the center of the chaos.

Do you think I don't know that?

Although His Highness is the Crown Prince,

but in terms of the strength in the imperial court,

he is much weaker

than Her Highness.

So,

do you want to

grant the position of the Minister of Justice

to Wei Fenghua?

I'm not that stupid.

I can't offend either side.

Father, you have a third choice?

That will be a good idea.

Administrator Du Ming of Yongzhou

was once a minister of justice

and served as Deputy President of the Supreme Court.

He is not only good at solving cases,

but also skilled in martial arts.

When Detective Di was alive,

he was praised as a talent.

I want him

to be the acting Minister of Justice for the time being.

In this case,

both the Crown Prince and the Princess

will have no grudge.

Father is indeed experienced.

But this is not a good idea.

Why not?

The General Administrator of Yongzhou

is assumed by the prince.

Therefore,

the Administrator is the chief.

Now you let him

hold the post of the Minister of Justice.

There has been no precedent in the imperial court.

Besides, you lay all the burdens of Yongzhou,

big or small,

on Du Ming alone.

Will it work?

What should I do then?

In my opinion,

you can let Her Highness to decide.

Her Highness has chosen the candidate.

There's nothing more to be decided.

That's because

Her Highness doesn't know that the Eastern Palace

recommended Lu Lingfeng.

You may report it

to Her Highness directly.

Maybe your trouble

will be solved.

What?

What do you mean?

Father.

Something happened in Dongdu

that you don't know.

If you trust your daughter,

just do as I say.

It will solve your problem.

The person recommended by the Eastern Palace is Lu Lingfeng.

Good.

The imperial court is in need of talents now.

We do need someone like him.

But it's a pity that this is a low-rank position.

If he makes contributions,

don't forget to promote him, Assistant Minister Pei.

I understand.

I'll take my leave.

I've seen

your daughter.

Not as beautiful as a goddess.

But she looks intelligent.

Otherwise,

she wouldn't have followed Lu Lingfeng all the way south.

She has a good taste.

Assistant Minister Pei.

Congratulations.

The appointment of Lu Lingfeng

is beneficial to the government and also to your family.

I...

You just recommend talents, regardless of relatives.

I don't mean to blame you.

You may take your leave.

See you.

I'll take my leave.

Your Highness.

Although Lu Lingfeng made contributions in Dongdu,

he works for His Highness.

The Minister of Justice is a low-rank official,

but is very important.

At this moment,

you grant this position to someone on the other side...

Lu Lingfeng is not on the other side.

It's settled.

And you don't need to

condescend yourself to a seventh-rank official.

Isn't that good?

Well,

I'll listen to Your Highness.

That Sass is really somebody.

He killed Wan An

within few days after he came.

Although Sass is a mysterious man,

I found where he lived

before Wan An.

Really?

What did he say

about your plan?

Since you've found me,

you're not an ordinary person, are you?

It doesn't matter.

I just wonder whether you dare to do

what I told you or not.

To kill the Crown Prince.

This...

It's not typical of you to hesitate like this.

I heard that you killed

many people in Luoyang back then.

The opposition of Empress Wu Zetian

were all big shots.

But he is the head of the Eastern Palace after all.

He is different from those officials.

Shouldn't you tell me

who you are?

I don't think

you need to know who I am.

You just need to know

that after this is done,

you can get

whatever you want.

I still need

to think about it

carefully.

You have three days.

On the seventh day of August,

I'll wait for your reply

in the Spring Field Inn of Pingkang Fang.

I saw he was interested in it.

It should be fine.

But I planned this

a few months ago.

And now, I've gone through

the danger of the Face Flower.

It doesn't seem to be a good timing

to kill the Crown Prince.

It is immoral, or even cruel.

Your Highness.

You should cut it off

or you will suffer the chaos.

If you want to be the second Heavenly Empress

and restore the Tang Dynasty,

you must not hesitate

at this crucial moment.

Otherwise,

you'll regret it.

But the Crown Prince has been close to me

since his childhood.

This time in Luoyang,

he tried his best to save me.

So what?

The Crown Prince's performance in Dongdu

might be an illusion.

Although he's showing kindness,

I'm afraid he's trying to retreat in order to better advance.

Once there is a chance,

he will definitely do something

to harm Your Highness.

Even for my own safety,

I can't let Your Highness

miss the opportunity

and be doomed.

For your own safety? Seriously?

I'm telling the truth from the bottom of my heart.

If the Crown Prince ascends the throne,

I, as a trusted follower of Your Highness,

would be expelled from the capital

and demoted to a barbarian place.

What's worse, I may die an ignominious death.

You were raised

by your uncle, right?

♫The storm rises with no reason♫

♫In the night of illusions♫

♫I go into the maze♫

♫In a world of prosperity♫

♫A heart burns with obsession♫

♫With the darkness rising♫

♫I can't stop wandering through the night♫

♫With light in my heart, I'm not afraid of the storm♫

♫It's because of justice♫

♫That I seek a truth for this long, lonely night♫

♫The heaven and earth are held together by a strong will♫

♫The people are in peace♫

♫Carving right and wrong into a clear heart♫

♫The truth♫

♫Will reinterpret this justice♫

♫Even if there is fog♫

♫Even if there are invisible waves♫

♫I'll tell the story of the fate♫

♫Tell the love of the world♫

♫For the memory of grace♫

♫And the resentment is not yet over♫

♫The rivers and mountains are immortal, the clouds are overturned♫

♫To be consoled by the truth, even with thorns on my back♫

♫Only for justice♫

♫That I seek a truth for this long, lonely night♫

♫The heaven and earth are held together by a strong will♫

♫The people are in peace♫

♫Carving right and wrong into a clear heart♫

♫The truth♫

♫Will reinterpret this justice♫

♫Even if there are a thousand sails, it's not a waste of time♫

♫What I am afraid of is the unrighted wrong♫

♫What is the meaning of life and death?♫

♫I'll paint the sunshine into the landscape♫

♫The spirit of righteousness♫

♫Exists for the one I care♫
