00:01:41,280 --> 00:01:43,930
[Episode 40]
3
00:01:47,509 --> 00:01:49,840
Since His Majesty lacks virtue,
4
00:01:53,560 --> 00:01:55,590
we might as well have him abdicate.
5
00:02:06,430 --> 00:02:07,430
Yigui.
6
00:02:08,410 --> 00:02:09,940
Be careful with your words.
7
00:02:13,800 --> 00:02:15,430
What you said today—
8
00:02:16,070 --> 00:02:16,800
neither I
9
00:02:17,700 --> 00:02:19,430
nor my ministers here
10
00:02:20,770 --> 00:02:22,530
heard a word of it.
11
00:02:26,470 --> 00:02:27,870
Let's continue drinking
12
00:02:28,280 --> 00:02:29,150
and enjoy
13
00:02:30,400 --> 00:02:31,930
this wonderful moment together.
14
00:02:31,930 --> 00:02:36,670
[Bearing Virtue, Bestowing Kindness]
15
00:02:33,190 --> 00:02:34,630
Only the few of us knew about
16
00:02:34,630 --> 00:02:36,880
that remark about abdication back then.
17
00:02:36,880 --> 00:02:40,840
[Hear All Sides]
18
00:02:37,750 --> 00:02:38,750
Could it be that
19
00:02:39,310 --> 00:02:40,750
someone snitched?
20
00:02:49,260 --> 00:02:51,190
It wasn't that I was being foolish.
21
00:02:51,470 --> 00:02:54,400
The Late Emperor was autocratic
and muddle-headed,
22
00:02:54,510 --> 00:02:56,710
making life unbearable for the people.
23
00:02:57,310 --> 00:02:59,160
And he feared that
24
00:02:59,360 --> 00:03:01,000
the Crown Prince's virtue
had spread far and wide,
25
00:03:01,000 --> 00:03:02,400
so he deliberately propped up
26
00:03:02,400 --> 00:03:04,660
the Jia family and the Sixteenth Prince.
27
00:03:07,030 --> 00:03:08,280
If, back then,
28
00:03:08,500 --> 00:03:11,630
with the combined power of
the Xie, Wei, and Qi families,
29
00:03:12,020 --> 00:03:15,180
we had put Crown Prince Chengde
on the throne,
30
00:03:16,190 --> 00:03:19,190
would the realm have been
well-governed and at peace?
31
00:03:21,710 --> 00:03:23,630
Crown Prince Chengde
32
00:03:24,280 --> 00:03:26,000
was too indecisive
33
00:03:26,590 --> 00:03:28,560
and lost the initiative.
34
00:03:31,680 --> 00:03:34,800
The Crown Prince and Linshan
died in battle.
35
00:03:35,430 --> 00:03:36,630
And you, Grand Tutor,
36
00:03:37,000 --> 00:03:39,000
have been depressed and sidelined.
37
00:03:39,120 --> 00:03:39,870
Tell me—
38
00:03:40,120 --> 00:03:42,150
would I have turned myself in?
39
00:03:44,079 --> 00:03:46,210
Crown Prince Chengde did say back then
40
00:03:46,430 --> 00:03:49,280
that although Li Xing came from
a clean background,
41
00:03:49,280 --> 00:03:51,030
he was obsessed with power.
42
00:03:51,030 --> 00:03:51,800
Could it be...
43
00:03:51,800 --> 00:03:52,690
Therefore,
44
00:03:52,910 --> 00:03:54,750
when the Crown Prince decided
to go to Jinzhou,
45
00:03:54,750 --> 00:03:57,400
it was already a lost cause.
46
00:03:58,030 --> 00:04:00,030
The Crown Prince was muddle-headed
47
00:04:00,840 --> 00:04:03,500
and allowed himself to be swayed
by sycophants,
48
00:04:03,750 --> 00:04:07,560
even daring to plot to replace me.
49
00:04:09,080 --> 00:04:12,170
What do you make of it, Sui?
50
00:04:12,280 --> 00:04:14,470
Your Majesty is wise and will make
the proper decision.
51
00:04:12,350 --> 00:04:17,410
[Lord Changxin, Sui Tuo]
52
00:04:14,710 --> 00:04:16,360
I've long been stationed in the Northwest
53
00:04:16,360 --> 00:04:18,560
and know little of the court's affairs,
54
00:04:18,720 --> 00:04:20,720
so I dare not speak presumptuously.
55
00:04:27,870 --> 00:04:30,160
For the sake of the realm,
56
00:04:31,720 --> 00:04:32,720
I
57
00:04:33,600 --> 00:04:36,200
have no choice but do the unthinkable.
58
00:04:36,560 --> 00:04:40,159
Nephew, will you aid me?
59
00:04:41,000 --> 00:04:45,110
You are my sister's son.
60
00:04:46,430 --> 00:04:50,390
You've got our Qi family's blood
running through your veins.
61
00:04:52,060 --> 00:04:53,710
Your Majesty means...
62
00:05:01,070 --> 00:05:06,160
I wish to share the realm with you
63
00:05:07,430 --> 00:05:09,960
and form an everlasting alliance.
64
00:05:17,630 --> 00:05:22,510
The Late Emperor gave Lord Changxin
an empty promise
65
00:05:22,780 --> 00:05:25,430
and had him hold back his troops.
66
00:05:26,710 --> 00:05:28,110
To eliminate his own son,
67
00:05:28,480 --> 00:05:30,810
he even invited the fox
into the hen house.
68
00:05:31,600 --> 00:05:33,800
He was truly a man without virtue.
69
00:05:35,390 --> 00:05:36,430
The Late Emperor
70
00:05:36,780 --> 00:05:44,250
[Qingyuan Palace]
71
00:05:37,070 --> 00:05:40,330
forged a letter in Rongyin's handwriting
and sent it to me,
72
00:05:40,510 --> 00:05:43,970
forcing me to turn back to the Capital
from the rescue mission.
73
00:05:46,510 --> 00:05:47,360
Yan.
74
00:05:47,480 --> 00:05:49,430
While the fire's still raging, run now.
75
00:05:49,430 --> 00:05:50,070
No.
76
00:05:50,420 --> 00:05:51,570
We leave together!
77
00:05:53,950 --> 00:05:55,120
Lord Wei, you...
78
00:05:55,140 --> 00:05:56,850
If I hadn't made a sacrifice
to save myself,
79
00:05:55,909 --> 00:05:59,900
[Qingyuan Palace]
80
00:05:57,510 --> 00:06:00,510
I'd have been labeled a traitor
who defiled the harem,
81
00:06:00,600 --> 00:06:01,860
and the entire Wei clan
82
00:06:02,160 --> 00:06:04,650
would have been exterminated.
83
00:06:04,720 --> 00:06:08,220
[Qingyuan Palace]
84
00:06:05,000 --> 00:06:05,750
Go away!
85
00:06:06,950 --> 00:06:07,920
Yan.
86
00:06:08,930 --> 00:06:09,810
You go first.
87
00:06:14,630 --> 00:06:15,510
Rongyin!
88
00:06:17,630 --> 00:06:20,140
Don't worry. Leave this to me.
89
00:06:29,720 --> 00:06:34,360
For 3 generations, the Xie, Qi, and Wei families
have served Great Yin with absolute loytalty,
90
00:06:34,360 --> 00:06:37,210
fighting bloody battles
until our kin were all but wiped out.
91
00:06:37,210 --> 00:06:39,409
What right did that cursed emperor have
92
00:06:39,680 --> 00:06:41,830
to toy with us like that?
93
00:06:48,850 --> 00:06:50,640
As for what happened next,
94
00:06:51,480 --> 00:06:53,680
I assume you already know, Grand Tutor.
95
00:06:54,920 --> 00:06:57,890
I was the one
who bathed the imperial palace in blood.
96
00:06:58,120 --> 00:06:59,650
If I hadn't staged the coup,
97
00:07:00,190 --> 00:07:02,120
what other choice would I have had?
98
00:07:07,680 --> 00:07:09,720
After Rongyin passed away,
99
00:07:10,600 --> 00:07:12,920
I had no choice but to seize
that cursed emperor by the throat
100
00:07:12,920 --> 00:07:15,450
and force him to write
an edict of abdication.
101
00:07:18,040 --> 00:07:19,920
Only with me in charge of the court
102
00:07:21,000 --> 00:07:23,270
could Great Yin remain stable
103
00:07:25,270 --> 00:07:28,680
and the state be preserved.
104
00:07:34,630 --> 00:07:36,190
As for Wei Qilin's infamy,
105
00:07:36,190 --> 00:07:38,510
I had no choice but to force it upon him.
106
00:07:38,510 --> 00:07:41,159
It was only because the Late Emperor
107
00:07:41,159 --> 00:07:43,300
had schemed far too meticulously.
108
00:07:43,950 --> 00:07:45,950
Before returning to the Capital,
I handed the Tiger Tally
109
00:07:45,950 --> 00:07:48,630
to my most trusted subordinate, Wei Qilin,
110
00:07:48,750 --> 00:07:50,680
and had him request reinforcements
on my behalf.
111
00:07:50,680 --> 00:07:51,540
Your Highness.
112
00:07:51,870 --> 00:07:53,320
This Tiger Tally is real.
113
00:07:53,390 --> 00:07:55,250
Please send troops immediately!
114
00:07:55,480 --> 00:07:57,120
This Tiger Tally is fake.
115
00:07:57,390 --> 00:07:58,600
It doesn't match.
116
00:07:59,630 --> 00:08:03,360
Everything was within
the Late Emperor's calculations all along.
117
00:08:07,640 --> 00:08:09,710
Later, misled by Qi Min,
118
00:08:10,040 --> 00:08:13,170
Zheng reinvestigated the Jinzhou case
from 17 years ago
119
00:08:13,510 --> 00:08:16,510
and unexpectedly discovered that
Wei Qilin's family was still alive.
120
00:08:16,510 --> 00:08:17,770
Only by silencing them
121
00:08:18,390 --> 00:08:21,040
could I preserve our bond
as uncle and nephew.
122
00:08:21,160 --> 00:08:22,070
Who would have thought—
123
00:08:22,070 --> 00:08:23,870
human plans are no match for
heaven's will.
124
00:08:23,870 --> 00:08:26,270
Zheng ended up being saved by Changyu.
125
00:08:27,680 --> 00:08:29,560
It seems fate had other plans.
126
00:08:37,140 --> 00:08:38,490
This truly is a case of
127
00:08:41,240 --> 00:08:46,630
an emperor abusing his power
while his loyal subjects die unjustly.
128
00:08:50,070 --> 00:08:51,260
So,
129
00:08:53,040 --> 00:08:55,800
I lost in the end.
130
00:09:07,810 --> 00:09:08,780
Shall we go in?
131
00:09:21,400 --> 00:09:22,230
Let's go.
132
00:09:28,910 --> 00:09:30,080
Fortunately,
133
00:09:30,270 --> 00:09:31,750
the blade that is Xie Zheng
134
00:09:31,750 --> 00:09:33,630
has found its scabbard—
135
00:09:34,550 --> 00:09:35,600
Fan Changyu.
136
00:09:37,320 --> 00:09:39,720
Let me borrow a line from Changyu:
137
00:09:40,480 --> 00:09:42,870
"be a good pig in this life,
138
00:09:43,630 --> 00:09:44,840
and a good person
139
00:09:45,910 --> 00:09:48,080
in the next."
140
00:09:55,120 --> 00:09:57,030
People like me
141
00:09:59,460 --> 00:10:01,870
will probably fall straight into hell.
142
00:10:06,360 --> 00:10:08,760
I'm afraid there won't be
a next life for me.
143
00:10:19,200 --> 00:10:21,240
Little wooden horse,
144
00:10:22,120 --> 00:10:24,720
running clip-clop.
145
00:10:25,150 --> 00:10:31,630
Little boy, spirits high.
146
00:10:32,960 --> 00:10:38,480
Sword in hand, singing loud.
147
00:10:39,960 --> 00:10:46,240
I'll chase all of you away.
148
00:11:00,630 --> 00:11:02,430
It's time for the morning court.
149
00:11:02,720 --> 00:11:03,690
Morning court.
150
00:11:03,960 --> 00:11:04,870
Morning court.
151
00:11:08,150 --> 00:11:09,190
My dear ministers,
152
00:11:09,190 --> 00:11:11,050
what do you have to report to me?
153
00:11:11,790 --> 00:11:14,120
Prime Minister Wei, why are you kneeling?
154
00:11:14,810 --> 00:11:16,350
Am I that scary?
155
00:11:17,910 --> 00:11:19,240
Never mind. Never mind.
156
00:11:19,240 --> 00:11:21,630
If there's nothing else,
court is dismissed.
157
00:11:21,630 --> 00:11:23,780
It seems this empire
158
00:11:24,330 --> 00:11:26,050
can only rely on me after all.
159
00:11:27,140 --> 00:11:29,900
Rely on me. Rely on me.
160
00:11:31,220 --> 00:11:32,010
Brother.
161
00:11:35,030 --> 00:11:37,080
Look what treats I brought you.
162
00:11:39,280 --> 00:11:41,010
These are all your favorites.
163
00:11:41,040 --> 00:11:42,240
Candied plums,
164
00:11:43,600 --> 00:11:45,240
and your favorite osmanthus cakes.
165
00:11:45,240 --> 00:11:46,840
Come on, have a bite.
166
00:11:51,320 --> 00:11:53,150
Delicious. Delicious.
167
00:11:55,910 --> 00:11:58,100
Eat slowly. Don't choke.
168
00:12:00,960 --> 00:12:01,750
Delicious.
169
00:12:02,870 --> 00:12:03,720
Brother,
170
00:12:05,440 --> 00:12:06,840
do you still recognize
171
00:12:08,000 --> 00:12:09,200
who I am?
172
00:12:33,270 --> 00:12:34,600
W-What?
173
00:12:37,270 --> 00:12:38,000
Brother...
174
00:12:38,040 --> 00:12:39,320
What did you say?
175
00:12:40,830 --> 00:12:42,570
I am wise? That's right.
176
00:12:44,390 --> 00:12:45,440
What did you say?
177
00:13:08,960 --> 00:13:11,790
I thought you wouldn't come.
178
00:13:15,090 --> 00:13:16,890
I had to see you off one last time.
179
00:13:18,320 --> 00:13:19,650
You may break your word,
180
00:13:21,190 --> 00:13:22,040
but I won't.
181
00:13:23,190 --> 00:13:24,190
It was kind of you
182
00:13:25,630 --> 00:13:27,630
to make this soup especially for me.
183
00:13:28,910 --> 00:13:30,310
I appreciate the effort.
184
00:13:31,240 --> 00:13:33,170
Even ordinary death row prisoners
185
00:13:33,670 --> 00:13:35,270
get a last meal before heading to
186
00:13:35,270 --> 00:13:37,200

00:45:06,360 --> 00:45:07,280
Thank you for coming, Nanny.
736
00:45:07,280 --> 00:45:08,610
So? Has she given birth?
737
00:45:08,760 --> 00:45:11,070
Yes. Both mother and daughter are
safe and healthy.
738
00:45:11,070 --> 00:45:13,190
She specially sent me to
bring the good news.
739
00:45:13,190 --> 00:45:14,150
Thank you for your trouble, Nanny.
740
00:45:14,150 --> 00:45:15,750
Come on, please come inside.
741
00:45:17,630 --> 00:45:19,490
It was really considerate of her.
742
00:45:19,630 --> 00:45:20,960
I've also prepared a small gift
743
00:45:20,960 --> 00:45:22,820
as a token of my congratulations.
744
00:45:23,510 --> 00:45:24,280
Thank you.
745
00:45:24,880 --> 00:45:26,360
How's her health?
746
00:45:27,440 --> 00:45:28,760
She's doing well.
747
00:45:29,190 --> 00:45:30,920
Please pass a message to her for me,
Nanny.
748
00:45:30,920 --> 00:45:32,710
Tell her I'll come visit in a few days.
749
00:45:32,710 --> 00:45:33,550
Alright.
750
00:45:34,000 --> 00:45:35,550
Please, no need to see me out, My Lady.
751
00:45:35,550 --> 00:45:36,710
Thank you, Nanny.

[Verdure Soaring to the Clouds]
753
00:45:51,510 --> 00:45:53,880
Mother, did Mrs. Meng give birth?
754
00:45:54,190 --> 00:45:55,150
Yes.
755
00:45:56,190 --> 00:45:57,000
What,

are you already thinking about
your little future wife, Zheng?

[Changyu's Birthday:
January 17, 5th Year of Qinghe]

[16 years later]
760
00:46:29,510 --> 00:46:30,710
Over the past 5 years,
761
00:46:30,840 --> 00:46:32,510
Father has finally worn down
the Beijue army
762
00:46:32,510 --> 00:46:34,910
until their treasury is nearly exhausted.
763
00:46:35,030 --> 00:46:36,760
For those old relics in the court
764
00:46:36,760 --> 00:46:38,280
to propose a ceasefire now—
765
00:46:38,280 --> 00:46:40,230
wouldn't that be plainly giving
the Beijue forces
766
00:46:40,230 --> 00:46:41,150
a chance to rest, recover,
767
00:46:41,150 --> 00:46:42,550
and make a comeback?
768
00:46:44,390 --> 00:46:46,510
I've come to the Capital this time
on my father's behalf
769
00:46:46,510 --> 00:46:48,480
to persuade His Majesty
770
00:46:48,670 --> 00:46:49,760
to continue sending troops,
771
00:46:49,760 --> 00:46:51,190
strike straight at
the Beijue army's stronghold,
772
00:46:51,190 --> 00:46:53,520
and eliminate the threat once and for all.
773
00:46:53,590 --> 00:46:55,030
But do you really think
774
00:46:55,400 --> 00:46:58,460
it was those old ministers
who proposed the ceasefire?
775
00:47:01,030 --> 00:47:02,880
The wars your father has fought
these past years
776
00:47:02,880 --> 00:47:04,610
have been steady and measured.
777
00:47:05,400 --> 00:47:06,360
His aim has been
778
00:47:06,760 --> 00:47:08,630
to wear down the Beijue army
779
00:47:09,000 --> 00:47:11,060
and drag them into total exhaustion.
780
00:47:12,150 --> 00:47:15,230
But His Majesty doesn't see it that way.
781
00:47:16,480 --> 00:47:18,030
But my father has always been
782
00:47:18,030 --> 00:47:19,690
utterly loyal to His Majesty.
783
00:47:20,670 --> 00:47:22,070
Twenty years ago,
784
00:47:22,070 --> 00:47:25,960
His Majesty was just as virtuous and loyal
785
00:47:26,150 --> 00:47:28,150
as the current Crown Prince, Qi Min.
786
00:47:28,850 --> 00:47:30,670
Yet over the years,
787
00:47:30,670 --> 00:47:32,920
his attitude toward the Eastern Palace
788
00:47:33,320 --> 00:47:36,980
has always been one of caution,
fearing a repeat of past troubles.
789
00:47:37,550 --> 00:47:39,190
He even guards against
790
00:47:39,630 --> 00:47:41,320
his own son so heavily,
791
00:47:41,960 --> 00:47:44,670
let alone those marquises of different clans
stationed in the Northwest,
792
00:47:44,670 --> 00:47:48,190
holding 100,000 troops.
793
00:47:48,190 --> 00:47:51,000
How could he simply let them
act as they please?
794
00:47:54,440 --> 00:47:55,150
Alright.
795
00:47:55,880 --> 00:47:58,670
Put aside the counterattack on Beijue
for now.
796
00:47:59,590 --> 00:48:00,990
When you see His Majesty,
797
00:48:01,110 --> 00:48:02,360
if you bring it up again,
798
00:48:02,360 --> 00:48:03,880
His Majesty will still use
799
00:48:04,320 --> 00:48:07,880
things like the floods in the south
800
00:48:07,880 --> 00:48:09,150
as an excuse.
801
00:48:13,510 --> 00:48:15,330
Thank you for your advice, Uncle.

Now, neither Father nor General Wei
can out-drink me.

Then I'll measure myself
against you today, Uncle.

I don't know the reason either.
864
00:51:58,670 --> 00:52:00,800
Perhaps we were enemies in a past life.

yet I couldn't get close.
868

The moment I did, I felt like vomiting.
869
00:52:12,480 --> 00:52:15,010
Perhaps this is what people mean
when they say
870
00:52:15,840 --> 00:52:16,960
some connections are fated
but not meant to be.
