Episode 21 Bloodbath at Mandarin Ducks Tower

Here comes Commandant Zhang

Where is the newcomer?

Get your warden here

Lord, actually

the prisoner Wu Song is at the warden's house

Bravo

Commandant Zhang is here to visit you, lord

What brought Commandant Zhang here?

I have no idea

-Let's greet him now -Okay

Your Excellency, pardon me

for not greeting you in time

Commandant Zhang

I heard that you kept the prisoner Wu Song here

Do you have a personal relationship with him?

I get him here to teach my men some martial art

to guard my house. That's all

Take me to him

He's in my back garden

This way

Bravo

Lord, this is Wu Song

At your disposal

Greetings, my lord

I've heard that you killed a tiger

What an imposing man!

You're bigger than this place

Shi En is hiding a prisoner at home despite his duty

And I found out about it

What should I do about his misconduct?

Lord…

I am a convict, so I'm at your disposal

That's more like it. At least, you have manners

You'll do even better at my mansion

You're flattering me

I won't bring charges against you

Manage your Pleasure Forest well

and quit being the warden

Lord, but…

Pleasure Forest

Here we are

Let's go

Welcome, please sit. Would you like something to eat?

What a big restaurant

Would you like something to eat?

Where did you hide my brother?

Alright

Fill the cup for our hero

I'm a convict. I dare not drink with you, lord

Don't say that

Think of my mansion as your home

Sit

It's just a drink. Don't be so serious

Master is offering you wine. Just drink it

Cheers

Okay

I know you wanderers

hate being restrained

We don't have any rules here

Just make yourself at home

Feel free to walk around

Thank you, lord

Yulan

You're being distant again

Yulan

Here

We tailored some autumn clothes for you

Put away your summer clothes once it gets chilly

Lord, I pledge loyalty to you to repay your kindness

The Start of Autumn is approaching, so I made a thin jacket

for my brother

He's been staying by Commandant Zhang's side all day long

It's really hard for me to see him

Did he forget about us?

Don't talk nonsense. Commander Wu is not like that

That's right

Not everyone can enter Commandant Zhang's house

I'll bring this to him

I'm not giving it to anyone else

Since we can't see him, that's it for the day

Sister

When you see my brother, tell him

that his brother and sister miss him a lot

See you around

Okay, stay

Brother, someone saw Jiang the Gate Guard Giant in town

What? He didn't leave?

The clothes fit you well

Thank you for taking care of me

You're not a young man anymore and you're still single

It's time to get married and settle down

I've never thought about it

Yulan

Here

I'll let you

take Yulan as your wife

What do you say?

She knows needlework and music very well

No, I am still a convict

I dare not think about it

Well, that's my call

Lord

If you keep refusing, I can only assume that you look down on her

I dare not to reject your kindness

It's just that I've never thought about that

Lord, if you really want to do good

please let us be brother and sister

Fine

Yulan

Visit his place more often and help with the chores

Take care of him

like his little sister

Greetings, brother

I'll do my job. Just rest

After my brother died

I have no family left in the world

I never knew that the lord would be so kind to me

And now I have a sister

Maybe I've done much good in the past life

I am all by myself, too

I've always been a maid at Commandant Zhang's

Now that I meet you, at least I have a brother

If anyone dares to bully you

I'll protect you

Thank you, brother

Master thinks highly of you and gives you so many gifts

Why don't you buy a box and pack them?

When I'm not coaching or practicing

I'm following our master around. I don't have time for that

Here's the key

Just buy me one when you're free

You're so straightforward

Why?

Nothing

Oh no

Pleasure Forest

Welcome, please come in

May I bring you something?

Some good wine

Here you are

This is not good. How dare you try to fool me?

Get your boss here

How dare you make a scene here?

Jiang the Gate Guard Giant

All right

Why don't you join us to drink and admire the moon?

The 15th of the 8th lunar month is the day for family reunion

I dare not join you

Just drink with me, okay?

Thank you, lord

Pardon me for being rude

I heard that you could really drink

We're all family here. Drink as much as you want

Get a large bowl

Yes, sir

I know you can drink

But seeing is believing

Forgive me, lord, I can't drink anymore

What's wrong?

I'm a bit of a boor

I don't want to get drunk, or I may lose my manners

and disturb you

We're all family

Who cares about manners?

Keep drinking

Okay

Come on

Let's drink

Sit

Yulan

Who is it?

Hello, open the door

Open the door. Hello?

Who is it?

Our warden wants to see Constable Wu

It's so late. Everyone is in bed

It's urgent

Lord, pardon me

I really can't drink anymore

Fine, go back and rest

He's just a prisoner

But you're treating him like a distinguished guest

This is inappropriate

What do you know?

There's no one here. Why are you nervous?

I'll tell Master about this

I'll ask Master to make you my wife

On this beautiful night…

Let go!

Brother, never mind

We were just messing around

Let me walk you back to your room

Yulan, go back and rest

Burglar!

Don't let the burglar get away

Burglar!

-Where did the burglar go? -To the back garden

Brother

What's wrong?

Someone is after him. Why bother?

Master's business is my business. I can't sit back and do nothing

Burglar! Catch him!

Burglar! Tie him up

Tighter

Idiots, why are you tying me up instead of the burglar?

You seem decent, but you're actually a burglar

You…

Search his room

Take him there

Search wherever you want

Bring him in

Lord, you know I'm not a burglar

So why is this box in your room?

Yulan bought the box. Only she knows about it

Yulan, do you know about it?

I've never seen it before

Yulan?

How dare you?

What a petty thief

I treated you so well and never did you wrong

How could you do this to me?

I'm wronged

All right, you set me up

Explain yourself

We have witnesses and evidence. You can't get away with it

Give him forty strokes of clubbing and get him back to prison

Yulan, why did you set me up?

Why did you frame me?

Tell me! Why did you do that?

Why did you set me up? Tell me!

Go

I'm wronged, Your Excellency

I'm wronged

Your Excellency, I'm wronged

I'm wronged

Prisoner Wu Song

what else do you have to say?

Confess and you will be spared

Beat him up

Go on

Please stop and spare my life

Are you confessing or not?

Sure, I'll confess

This way

-Brother Shi En -Brother and sister

Have a seat

You finally came

I've been trying so hard to reach you

Something went wrong with my brother, Wu Song?

Wu Song was set up and sent back to prison

He was almost beaten to death in court today

He has never offended anyone. Who would set him up?

It's a long story

Tell us how to save him now

I sold all my properties

and paid off Ye Kongmu for a lighter sentence

They'll tattoo his face and exile him to Enzhou

My brother is just straightforward

I bet he must be tricked

Imagine how he'd suffer in prison

At least he's still alive

But I'm afraid he'll be killed on the journey of exile

That's why I invited you here for some ideas

How far is it from Enzhou?

Hurry up

Go

Hurry up

Brother, it's all my fault

Brother, get up. Why would you say that?

Brother, Jiang colluded with Commandant Zhang to set you up

He has taken over the Pleasure Forest again

Hurry up, go

Please look after my brother on the way

This is something to eat on the way

Let him carry it

Brother, take care of yourself

That's enough. Come on, let's go

Hurry up

Pleasure Forest

It's ready

Don't miss

Rest assured, master

Wait till he's far gone just in case

Understood

Go to Commandant Zhang's mansion once you're done

Of course

Take a rest

Okay, take a rest

Take these

There you go

Move

What are you looking at? Go

Go

Go

What are you looking at? Go!

Hurry up

Help! Help me!

Help me

Thank you for saving my life

Thank you

Go

How are you?

Are you okay?

Yeah

Flying Cloud Shore

Keep going, move

What are you looking at? Go

Wu Song, your life ends here at Flying Cloud Shore

Please spare my life

I never kill innocent people

You left me no choice

Who sent you here?

Jiang the Gate Guard Giant and Commandant Zhang

They told me to… to kill you right here

Where is Jiang now?

At the Mandarin Ducks Tower of Zhang's

Now, the Pleasure Forest is yours once again

Master, I am merely managing it for you

Every penny we make belongs to you

But I can't rest assured

as long as Wu Song is alive

I have informed my men

to update us once it's done

Look

What a beautiful moonlight

Let's drink and enjoy the moon

Tell Yulan to bring us dishes

What took you so long? Are you done?

We're late. Wu Song is…

Look

He got away

Why haven't we seen him?

Would he go back?

Yeah, look around

You scared me

I miss you so much

I came for some wine

Master will punish me if we're short of wine

Master said he would let me marry you as a reward

Please spare my life

I was following orders. It wasn't my idea

Come on

The assassins should be back by now

Yulan, you also helped us kill Wu Song

I haven't rewarded you yet

Yulan, sing for us

Yeah, sing for us

Master, pardon me. I didn't bring my pipa

Go get it

Understood

Brother

Brother

Wu Song may seem very strong

but he was dumb

He truly saw Yulan as his sister without suspecting anything

It saved us a lot of trouble

You can't treat a guy like him toughly

Now that I think about it, I kind of like him

He would be grateful to you even in the afterworld

How did it go?

Wu Song!

What happened? They got drunk again?

They…

You bastard

Please spare my life

I can spare anyone but you

What's going on here?

Put the light on

Yes, Madam

Madam!

What's all the fuss about?

I'm a dead man walking, anyway

Brother

I'm not your brother

It's my bad

I was as blind as a bat

I thought of you as my dear sister

I hate those who lie to me

You can fool me

but you can't fool my blade

Brother, I really had no choice

Don't blame my ruthlessness

I deserve it

Brother

The killer is Wu Song the tiger-killer

Next on Water Margin

Chief, it won't taste good after a while

Greetings to Brother Song Jiang

Let's go to Mount Liang together

My father died of a serious illness
