[Swords into Plowshares]

[Episode 19]

Seventh brother, you know the situation in the state.

After months of warfare, the treasury is nearly depleted.

Winning the great battle is indeed fortunate,

but rewarding the armies,

is another huge expense.

Where can we get the money?

These past few days, several ministers have turned half gray.

Hongchu exposed the Taizhou case.

It was indeed satisfying for a moment, but to fill this hole,

five hundred thousand hu of grain is a must.

As to the case of Dai Yun, the reason for the inner treasury fire,

over these many years, it has long been mostly investigated.

But I,

have endured it all along.

In the dead of night, dreaming back,
for many times have I dreamed of father king.

He questioned me,

"Where is your filial piety?"

As a son,

if I cannot avenge my parents,

can I be called a man?

But I still endured it.

The Shanyue House annually contributes to the court's
treasury two hundred and fifty thousand hu of grain,

one hundred thousand taels of silver
and one hundred thousand bolts of silk.

Wealth is hard to part with.

I, the King of Wuyue, cannot bear to part with this money.

I had already made the decision, that

if the traitor Cheng Zhaoyue

can offer five hundred thousand hu
of grain to fill this hole in Taizhou for me,

then this vengeance for father's death,
I will no longer hold it against him in my life.

The unfilial one is me.

It has nothing to do with you all.

Brother, how could it come to this?

But now it cannot be done.

I can endure the vengeance for father's death.

but the crime of treason,

I cannot tolerate.

[Western Capital, Jiangning Prefecture]

I, Li Jingsui, pay respects to Your Majesty.

[Li Jing, Southern Tang Emperor]

The urgent report from Hongji in Runzhou has reached.
[Li Hongji, Li Jing's son, Prince of Yan, holding troops in Runzhou]

The matter in the south will be settled within these two days.

[Li Jingsui, the Heir Apparent]

Your Majesty, Cheng Zhaoyue is merely a merchant.

His words should not be heeded,

and he himself should not be trusted.

My late father, was once merely a servant
at the Kaiyuan Temple in Haozhou.

The Empress Dowager was also just a maid.

Our family back then was not even as good as a merchant.

I have spoken out of turn.

Brother, the war in Fuzhou has ended.

The Qian family no longer faces external threats.

This Cheng Zhaoyue in Hangzhou has no power or troops.

Even if he has the intention, I'm afraid he can't do anything big.

If it were only Cheng Zhaoyue,

I originally held little hope.

But who would have thought the Qian family
would have a restless fisherman Prince,

who flogged the county magistrate and oppressed the gentry.

The prefectures there are now
filled with complaints and grievances.

The ministers and generals in the court are wavering.

Cheng Zhaoyue at this time is acting as a central liaison,

using either bribes or favors.

Within Hangzhou city, there are now undercurrents surging.

Great chaos is imminent.

Hongji is commanding the armies in Runzhou,

Waiting only for the chaos to erupt to
immediately point his sword at Qiantang.

It is time,

to settle the open accounts with this old adversary, Wuyue.

I wonder,

which one Cheng Zhaoyue has persuaded to rebel?

Others are of little consequence.

But the Cavalry Commander Hu Jinsi is
a senior minister having served three kings.

His trusted generals are spread throughout the Wuyue army.

With his assistance,

Hongji and Cheng Zhaoyue's scheme is very likely to succeed.
There's a eighty to ninety percent chance.

If heaven truly grants our wish,

what does it matter to give
this military governor to Cheng Zhaoyue?

Hu Jinsi...

Father, Father!

Father.

Seventh Prince and Ninth Prince
had the Tongyue Gate opened half an hour ago

and entered the palace together.

How long have you been the Minister of Works?

Five years and three months.

With your abilities,

to aspire to be Chancellor is indeed a bit of a stretch.

I never really expected it.

With you here, the Great King also
wouldn't let me enter the Chancellor's mansion.

I am content with being a Minister
of a Ministry for over five years.

You are content.

But what about your younger brothers?

What about your sons?

I am ninety.

Your brother is only fourteen.

If you don't worry about his wealth and status,

how can I not worry?

Keeping a corner safe amidst the chaos,
poverty is not necessarily a disaster;

wealth and high status are not necessarily a blessing.

Father...

Don't learn from those bookish pedants,

who see a knife and immediately chant Amitabha.

Over sixty years ago in Xiaoshan,

I, from the foot of the mountain, cut my way to the top.

I wore out seven knives,

covered from head to toe in other people's blood.

Wealth, poverty, status, all depend on this knife.

If this knife is in your own hands, it is a blessing.

If it is in someone else's hands, it is a disaster.

Hu Jinsi...

Brother, Cheng Zhaoyue is just a merchant, not a concern.

However, Hu Jinsi is an old minister
who followed Grandfather in founding the state,

long in the army with immense prestige.

Although in recent years
he hasn't commanded armies out,

yet the important generals in the army
were all once his subordinates.

He is also currently the Commander of Inner Infantry.

If he colludes with Cheng Zhaoyue,

acting in concert, and jointly stages a rebellion,

the court will instantly be plunged into catastrophic chaos.

But I simply cannot understand.

Hu Jinsi, a senior military commander,
a veteran of three reigns,

secretly conspiring with Cheng Zhaoyue, plotting rebellion...

There must be a reason for this.

Hu Jinsi is of such advanced age,

with a friendship spanning three generations
with the royal Qian family.

How could he agree to wade into this murky water?

For the empty title of a chancellor?

the Central Plains have seen over a dozen emperors change.

In my view,

all affairs under heaven

are transactions.

Where there is a buyer, there is a seller.

For wealth and power,

sons murder fathers,

brothers kill each other.

Shi Jingtang,

even sold the Sixteen Prefectures
of Yan and Yun to the Khitans.

A friendship of three generations...

A friendship of three generations.

What is a friendship of three generations worth?

To watch helplessly,

as a bunch of good-for-nothing incompetents, are all, one by one,

appointed as military governors,
merely because they bear the surname Qian.

To watch helplessly as a group of young upstarts
appointed as high ministers,

merely because they are imperial relatives by marriage.

If it were you, could you endure it?

Although Hu Jinsi has a high reputation,

he has never been granted the authority of a military governor,
nor has he ever been the Chancellor.

Over time, resentment grows.

Not hard to understand.

Seventh Brother,

if Hu Jinsi truly rebels, at this very moment,

we brothers probably can do nothing.

Your words make sense.

The military power Hu Jinsi holds in Hangzhou
even surpassing Dai Yun in his prime.

The defense of inner city and outer city
[Inner city is the military core.]

that cannot bypass him.
[Outer city is within the new-built city walls.]

If he rebels, within the city of Hangzhou,

there might not be a single usable soldier
or one trustworthy general left.

Even the Personal Guard?

The Commander of the
Personal Guard was personally selected by Sixth Brother.

Below are selected from the various units
in the outer garrisons by chief commanders.

As to the Imperial Guard Office,
they are selected by assessing, ranking and drawing lots.

Hu Jinsi is Chief Commander of Inner Cavalry Guards,

and Cheng Zhaoyue is Commander of the Imperial Guards,

if these two are truly secretly colluding,
plotting rebellion,

then over these years, replacing the entire Guard,
top to bottom, with their people

would not be difficult.

Does you have a plan?

That depends on whom you truly wishes to deal with.

If it is Cheng Zhaoyue,

issue a royal decree, summon him here,

and we three brothers, each with
a knife, can finish him off.

Hongchu, this is simply being reckless.

The King is the ruler of a state;
how can he personally step into danger?

Then you suggest a plan.

Hongchu,

what if the one I wish to deal with,

is Hu Jinsi?

Then I have no plan either.

Lord Hu's age is more than thirty years bigger
than the ages of us three brothers added together.

My little tricks cannot deceive him.

The current plan

is to find a way to transfer the Guards out of the city.

Secretly inform Uncle, Lord Shuiqiu, Chancellor Yang and Yuan,

and then Fifth Uncle, requesting him to
bring his ceremonial guards and household troops

to the inner city to protect the King.

There will be about seven or eight hundred men.

If Lord Hu truly rebels, and leads his troops to attack,

then I will lead these people and draw blades against him.

Lord Hu is after all ninety years old.

Perhaps he might not catch his next breath,

then Sixth Brother would still be the King.

And if I fail to hold out, then on the way to see father,

I can still pave the way for two elder brothers.

In what name can we mobilize the guards
and deploy them from the inner city?

It must be Cheng Zhaoyue.

He privately hoarding weapons and armor,
colluding with enemy states.

Order the guard units to surround
his residence and arrest him.

Since the various military officers
have connections with Cheng Zhaoyue,

if you go to arrest him, how would they be willing to go?

Cheng Zhaoyue is not Lord Hu.

He has never led troops, nor on the battlefield.

Even if he has widely distributed wealth and favors
in the army, that is merely buying goodwill.

Military orders suddenly issued,
even if there are one or two his deathbound men,

it will be difficult to know the situation.

There will inevitably be chaos.

As long as we don't give them time to connect and incite unrest,
striking fast, we can drive them out.

At that time, once the North Gate and Tongyue Gate are closed,

and the situation is such,

if they want to return, they can only climb the walls
and fight their way back in.

That Hu Jinsi, such a veteran minister
over three generations, is unreliable.

How do you know that the imperial relatives
will stand on our side?

Seventh Brother,

if the traitors truly succeed,

the ones who suffer won't just be the three of us.

Everyone surnamed Qian in Hangzhou, and all those closely
related to our family will not escape.

It doesn't matter.

As to reliablility,

with just one question,

we can find out whether they are on my side,

or have some connection with that Cheng Zhaoyue.

You two, go now on my behalf,

and test them.

The current King of Qian possesses
both breadth of mind and methods,

and is not lacking in wisdom and schemes.

However, having ascended the throne young with little experience,

and with Dai Yun's case, he is inevitably
suspicious and prone to conjecture.

In his heart,

he truly trusts no one.

It is precisely by knowing this,

that you dare to take such a risk?

After his succession, the first
he suppressed were his own clan.

And because of Dai Yun's case, he even extended
his wariness to maternal relatives.

Unable to use his own people, he
had no choice but to use an outsider like me.

Over these five or six years, in the three personal guard units,
and the three imperial guard units,

a sea of silver, silk, salaries, rice, money,
goods, and wealth distributed,

I have just barely managed to create
the situation we have today.

Even if you have bribed all
the inner palace military officers,

given the current situation,

would they follow you,

risking their heads, to rebel?

Of course they would not.

I use all this expenditure of wealth and goods
to buy two things.

First, to make the King wary of them,
so he dares not trust them at critical moments.

Second, having served as Commander of
Inner Guard for over five years,

I have cultivated are only seven or eight
deathbound warriors at most.

Even to these seven or eight, I do not need them
to risk their lives attacking Xianning Court.

To open the gate.

Precisely.

To open the gate.

As long as when the time comes, they open the Tongyue Gate
and let my men into the palace city, that is sufficient.

What a huge deal this is.

Yuanqing.

Now do you believe it?

This is a big deal.

My capital may not be much,
but I'm betting on a winning probability.

I can achieve great effect with little effort.

The imperial family, and the relatives
by marriage cannot be used.

Now even the Imperial Army, he dare not use.

Who can this young King in the palace use now?

Probably,

only his two dear younger brothers.

The Commissioner of Zhedong Land Office?

The Great King intends to have a Commissioner
of Zhedong Land Office in Taizhou

to centrally manage the agricultural affairs of
Mingzhou, Taizhou, and Wenzhou.

Each prefecture has its own Land Office.

Why to appoint a Commissioner for the three prefectures?

The Land Commissioner of Taizhou and
Wenzhou have caused trouble.

The corruption within the Offices also
need to be thoroughly investigated.

These two Officers are probably both unreliable.

The title of Grand Commissioner is too weighty

Whom does the Great King have in mind?

I am here on the King's orders to ask you, Minister.

Prefect Shen Wenqi of Wenzhou and
Inner Guard Commander Cheng Zhaoyue,

which of the two is suitable to be the Commissioner of Zhedong?

Is there even a need to ask?

What kind of person is Shen Wenqi?

What kind of person is that Cheng?

One is a gentleman,

the other is a scoundrel.

The position of Commissioner,

if not given to a gentleman,

could it be given to a scoundrel instead?

Cheng Zhaoyue is a businessman,

and Shen Wenqi is a gentleman.

But a gentleman cannot make money.

The current situation in Taizhou and Wenzhou

requires someone who understands the principles of economy,

and the business of wealth and goods to properly manage it.

The Commissioner of Zhedong Land Office,
cannot be a gentleman,

but a businessman.

Yes.

These past years I have trained
three hundred deathbound warriors.

They have now all infiltrated the city, hiding in the various
wards and markets of Shanyue House.

As soon as the Tongyue Gate opens,
I will lead them straight to Xianning Court.

The guards units dare not act without the king's orders.

Plus the effort I've put in and
the wealth I've spent over these years,

within the inner city, all will be secure.

At that time, Hu Jinsi will lead his household troops
to the Xiaoshan camp,

ordering the two courts not to act rashly
using his identity as the Cavalry Commander.

The only concern is the Qian clan relatives
living in the outer city

and the various maternal relatives.

My manpower is truly too limited.

With three hundred warriors, restraining
the six guards units is already a challenge.

Additionally,

the household troops of a few families
loyal to the Qian among relatives in the outer city,

nobles, and meritorious officials,

in an emergency,

could also from a force of a thousand men.

The five hundred men I brought are all veterans
from the Black Cloud Longsword Unit.

If that's the case,

we will succeed.

The Zhedong Land Commissioner cannot be a merchant.

So, your opinion is to use Shen Wenqi?

Shen has both talent and courage, but unfortunately,
neither his status nor his methods are sufficient.

He can't make it to be the Zhedong Land Commissioner.

Neither will be used?

The most suitable candidate is actually, Ninth Prince.

Hongchu?

He is the King's brother, a beloved son of the late King,
a trusted member of the royal family.

He once severely wounded Zhang Yanze
in the Chongyuan Hall, before the Khitan Emperor.

Mr. Yuan,

this is not the time for jokes.

I would never dare to jest about state affairs.

Since he can attack Zhang Yanze,

Obviously he will not afraid whatever
tigers or rats in local government.

Did the Great King send you to ask?

How dare I falsely transmit the king's order to deceive you?

You dare not,

but the Great King dares.

Prepare the horses.

I am going to the palace.

Yes

Duke of Wuxing.

The situation has changed.

Shuiqiu Zhaoquan,

is known as the foremost gentleman of Wuyue.

I encountered him in Bianliang.

He is a strong opponent.

Entering the palace late at night,
he must have caught wind of something.

Yuanqing.

When can your men be fully prepared?

No preparation needed.

Within an hour?

It won't take that long.

Good.

Employing such deceitful schemes
to test the clan relatives and ministers?

where is the morality of a ruler?

When the state is in peril, Great King,

if you do not trust your clan relatives, meritorious nobles
and important ministers,

who else is there left to trust within the borders of Wuyue ?

Lord Shuiqiu

Do not be angry.

I who used a wrong person,

Leading to the current situation where
undercurrents are surging within the palace.

I truly do not know whom to trust or whom to employ.

Why can they not be trusted?

Why can they not be employed?

Liu Yanchen!

Get in here!

I am here.

Pass the Great King's order,

Command the three Companies of the Personal Guard,
and the three Companies of the Imperial Guard

to assemble at Tongyue Gate
in full armor and formation within one hour.

Anyone who dares to hesitate, procrastinate, spread rumors,

or engage in private dealings, execute him immediately.

I

obey your command.

This is your palace city.

This is your capital.

Whether they are clan relatives, meritorious nobles,
or those civil and military officials and people,

they are all your subjects.

If there is anyone who dares to commit treason,

Great King,

you only need to call out, and the entire city
will be filled with troops loyal to you.

If you wish to punish rebels, to capture traitors,

you may simply proceed honorably.

Why must you resort to,

such underhanded and sinister schemes?

You know,

this place, is the Wuyue Kingdom that three generations of
kings of Qian family have managed and defended for forty years.

It is not the Central Plain.

Here there are no ministers who openly assassinate
their sovereign, nor traitors who roam free and escape the law.

Lord Shuiqiu.

He Chengxun came forward secretly at night to
denounce Cheng Zhaoyue for his intention to...

Cheng Zhaoyue?

Who is Cheng Zhaoyue?

He is a state minister serving in the capital.

He is not a military governor ruling a region.

If he has treacherous intentions,
if he commits acts of treason,

one censor, and ten soldiers,

are enough to capture him and execute him according to the law.

But if we follow Ninth Prince's such muddle-headed proposal,

to dispatch thousands of personal guards and
attendants outside the inner city,

those forbidden troops,
without restraint and their superiors,

once they reach the outer city,
what great chaos might they cause?

By that time,

nobles slaughtering each other,

common people,

displaced and suffering...

Then why will the people in peace for decades,

still support you, the King,

and support the Qian clan?

It is Hongchu who is inconsiderate.

You are more than just inconsiderate..

After one trip to Bianliang, you think you are a brave warrior.

After serving once as the Military Inspector in the army,

you think you are a famous general.

You can't treat recklessness as strategy
to handle state affairs.

When it is not your time to show off,
you always plays petty tricks.

When it is time for you to be serious,
you become inconsiderate instead.

A single Cheng Zhaoyue does not warrant such attention.

The real danger,

lies behind him.

It lies with the Southern Tang spies behind him.

Southern Tang!

Is the true life-and-death enemy of our Wuyue!

Great King!

I acknowledge his mistake.

I will now drag out that Li Yuanqing.

Halt.

I request the Great King grant
Ninth Prince the military tally.

I humbly obeys the command.

Take the military tally,

and go find Zhang Jun.

Lord Shuiqiu,

I, acknowledge my mistake.

However,

regarding Lord Hu...

Lord Hu,

is the state's chief commander.

I do not believe Lord Hu would willingly stoop so low,

conspiring with those petty villains.

I am willing to go on your behalf to seek clarity.

I will dispatch the personal guard to escort you there.

No need.

The person I am going to see is the state's marshal.

I do not wish to bring troops.

[Xiaoshan Camp outside Hangzhou]
Ninth Prince, following the Great King's command,

has come to take charge of the army.

Open the camp gate!

[Shen Chengli, Deputy Right Commander of the Inner Infantry]

Let the visitor retreat ten paces.

Military curfew at night.

Visitor, retreat ten paces.

Shen Chengli!

You, come out!

Arrows!

Military curfew at night.

Anyone approaching the stockade wall will die.

Minister of War, Cavalry Commander, Prefect of Xuanzhou,
Marquis of Jiaxing, Zhang Jun, is here,

by the Great King's command, to escort
Ninth Prince in into the city to take command of the army.

I request Ninth Prince to move to
the foot of the stockade wall for conversation.

Others,

must not follow.

Ninth Prince. Shen Chengli insist on resisting
the command, refusing to open the gate.

The situation is unfavorable.

In my opinion, it would be better to return and
wait until daybreak to make further plans.

Everyone, halt where you are.

Before I return, do not approach
the stockade wall by a single step.

I am Qian Hongchu, the ninth son of the late King.

Shen Chengli,

get out!

Ninth Prince, please understand.

I am Shen Chengli.

According to Wuyue military regulations,
strict night curfew is enforced.

From the third quarter of the Xu hour
to the third quarter of the Yin hour,

even if there is an alarm of enemy rebellion,

the city gates must not be opened.

I must request you to come again tomorrow at daybreak.

I bear the royal command.

I cannot wait until daybreak.

You, get into that bamboo basket,

come down here to see me.

Please, Prince, according to Wuyue military regulations,

when the main army is encamped,
unless dispatched by the commander's order.

The commanding officer. leaving the camp shall be beheaded.

If you wish me leave the camp,

please bring the tally token of the
commander, Lord Hu, and show it to me.

I do not have Lord Hu's tally token.

Then please, Prince,

come back tomorrow after daybreak.

Then I'll go up!

I'll go up myself, alright?

You lower the basket.

I will go up and speak with you!

Shen Chengli,

you too are a man who has fought through countless battles.

At Xiaoshan Camp, there are six thousand
of our Wuyue armored soldiers.

I will go up alone.

Then?

You don't even dare to allow that?

Guards!

Lower the bamboo basket.

Ninth Prince,

my apologies.

Greetings, Palace Attendant.

My father is elderly and has already went to sleep.

Please come again tomorrow.

Tomorrow...

Will be too late.

There's an accusation that you and your father
are plotting rebellion and treason.

I cannot believe it, nor do I wish to believe it.

That is why I have rushed here at midnight
to ask you face-to-face.

Minister Hu just asked me to come again tomorrow.

Are you trying to tell me
that this matter requires no further inquiry?

If that is the case,

Palace Attendant, please wait a moment.

You scared me half to death!

I, Prefect of Chuzhou,
Deputy Right Commander of the Inner Guard,

Acting Commander of Xiaoshan Camp, Shen Chengli,

pay respects to Ninth Prince.

The royal decree and military tally are here.

Here, inspect them.

I respectfully receive the royal decree.

You don't need Lord Hu's tally as verification?

I was delayed King's affairs and offended you.

I am guilty.

How many troops do you have under your command?

Xiaoshan Camp has four and a half Companies.

four thousand seven hundred and twelve are Infantry,

and one thousand four hundred and thirty-three are Cavalry.

What about warhorses and packhorses?

Two thousand nine hundred and sixty-eight warhorses.

One thousand eight hundred and forty-four packhorses.

One thousand and sixty-two mules.

That's sufficient.

Beat the drums to assemble the generals.

Yes.

Not at ease?

Which one are you worrying about?

Lord Shuiqiu is a pillar of the state.
I don't have to worry about him.

Then you are...

Worrying about Hongchu.

He's still too young.

He has no established prestige in the army.

Shen Chengli at the Xiaoshan camp
was promoted by Sixth Uncle himself,

a veteran served many years.

He has led troops in campaigns for a long time.

To command and control such arrogant
and fierce soldiers and generals,

Hongchu...

Set your mind at ease.

Although this Shen Chengli is Sixth Uncle's son-in-law,

he is also a subject of Wuyue.

He has fought battles and killed men
and has some worldly experience.

Hongchu is no inferior here actually.

Hongchu has also fought battles.

He has also killed men.

He also has some worldly experience.

The battles Shen Chengli fought were
merely front-line attacks and defenses,

back and forth, casualties only a thousand or so per battle.

What Hongchu experienced,

was the siege of Bianliang, and the war in Fuzhou.

Those were battlefields involving hundreds of thousands men.

The men Shen Chengli killed were merely
Southern Tang officers and soldiers.

Our Hongchu,

has actually severely wounded
a Central Plains military governor!

Sixth Brother,

these matters are glorious when discussed in court,

but we brothers know that was merely a matter of chance,
being in the right place at the right time.

It can't be taken too seriously.

If on that day in Chongyuan Hall,
it wasn't Hongchu standing there,

but you,

and the one sitting up there is,

the Khitan Emperor intimidating two dynasties,
dominating both north and south.

having severed sixteen prefectures from the Central Plain,

Do you dare to draw your blade?

I've said it before.

Among the descendants of the old king's maternal family,
you are the only one who is somewhat promising.
