1
00:00:17,000 --> 00:00:19,640
- What it was?
- Stop!

2
00:00:19,720 --> 00:00:21,080
- Repeat!
- He arrives!

3
00:00:21,160 --> 00:00:22,400
- Repeat!
- Back!

4
00:00:22,480 --> 00:00:24,080
That's enough! Back!

5
00:00:24,880 --> 00:00:25,880
Let them go.

6
00:00:26,920 --> 00:00:30,080
The prisoners were captured
by the Yanzhou Army.

7
00:00:30,600 --> 00:00:32,400
Why did Jizhou troops
do they keep half?

8
00:00:32,479 --> 00:00:34,360
- Exactly.
- What right do they have?

9
00:00:34,440 --> 00:00:35,120
What right?

10
00:00:35,200 --> 00:00:38,360
Captain Fan and the military supervisor
they are in love.

11
00:00:38,440 --> 00:00:40,480
- Right.
- Soon they will be a family.

12
00:00:40,560 --> 00:00:42,400
Half?

13
00:00:42,920 --> 00:00:44,680
They should give us all.

14
00:00:44,760 --> 00:00:46,280
It's the fairest.

15
00:00:46,360 --> 00:00:47,400
- Exactly.
- It's fair.

16
00:00:47,480 --> 00:00:48,680
Shut up!

17
00:00:49,400 --> 00:00:50,240
Nonsense!

18
00:00:50,960 --> 00:00:53,200
Captain Fan is married.

19
00:00:53,280 --> 00:00:56,000
How would you get involved
with military supervisor Li?

20
00:00:56,080 --> 00:00:57,480
Nonsense!

21
00:00:57,560 --> 00:01:00,760
Captain Fan's husband died
on the battlefield for a long time.

22
00:01:01,280 --> 00:01:02,480
Even if you were alive,

23
00:01:02,560 --> 00:01:05,720
how could it compare
to the military supervisor?

24
00:01:05,800 --> 00:01:07,000
Exactly.

25
00:01:07,080 --> 00:01:10,520
Wait. Supervisor Li shouldn't
marry the Grand Princess?

26
00:01:10,600 --> 00:01:12,440
Why did you get involved with the captain?

27
00:01:12,520 --> 00:01:15,000
- Exactly.
- It's none of your business.

28
00:01:15,080 --> 00:01:17,280
The supervisor visits
the captain every day. So what?

29
00:01:17,360 --> 00:01:19,040
You, on the other hand,

30
00:01:19,120 --> 00:01:20,840
Will your master

31
00:01:21,360 --> 00:01:22,720
Are you keeping an eye on the captain?

32
00:01:22,800 --> 00:01:23,960
- Nonsense!
- What did you say?

33
00:01:24,040 --> 00:01:24,840
Any problems?

34
00:01:24,920 --> 00:01:26,400
- Fight.
- Why did you attack?

35
00:01:27,160 --> 00:01:28,360
- Stop!
- Let go.

36
00:01:28,440 --> 00:01:29,760
- Attention!
- Careful.

37
00:01:29,840 --> 00:01:32,040
PEACE AND PROSPERITY
ALONG THE BORDERS

38
00:01:32,120 --> 00:01:33,400
We are brothers in arms,

39
00:01:34,200 --> 00:01:36,160
but they fight and hurt themselves over prisoners.

40
00:01:36,880 --> 00:01:37,800
And the standards?

41
00:01:38,760 --> 00:01:41,360
Lord Li, you are the judge.

42
00:01:41,440 --> 00:01:43,800
You and Captain Fan
Soon they will be a family.

43
00:01:44,400 --> 00:01:46,920
Why split
military merits like that?

44
00:01:47,000 --> 00:01:48,000
How dare you!

45
00:01:49,000 --> 00:01:51,080
You shouldn't spread gossip like that.

46
00:01:51,160 --> 00:01:53,200
I don't care if the supervisor
Do you like the captain or not?

47
00:01:53,280 --> 00:01:55,520
But take away the merits
of the warriors of Yanzhou?

48
00:01:55,600 --> 00:01:56,480
It is not acceptable.

49
00:01:56,560 --> 00:01:57,880
- Right?
- So what?

50
00:01:57,960 --> 00:02:00,360
- Do you have a problem?
- It does not have?

51
00:02:00,440 --> 00:02:01,440
Troops, at my command!

52
00:02:01,520 --> 00:02:02,360
INSIGNIA

53
00:02:05,840 --> 00:02:07,680
The captain and I have known each other for a long time.

54
00:02:08,280 --> 00:02:09,600
Just like you,

55
00:02:10,120 --> 00:02:12,040
there is a bond of life and death,
we fight together.

56
00:02:12,680 --> 00:02:16,400
Today, Captain Fan and I swear
be brother and sister.

57
00:02:17,400 --> 00:02:18,640
From now on,

58
00:02:18,720 --> 00:02:20,480
I will treat you like my sister.

59
00:02:21,800 --> 00:02:25,000
If anyone dares to spread rumors,
cause problems

60
00:02:25,760 --> 00:02:27,640
or slander her honor again,

61
00:02:28,160 --> 00:02:30,800
will receive 30 lashes
as a warning to others.

62
00:02:30,880 --> 00:02:31,720
Yes sir.

63
00:02:40,440 --> 00:02:41,360
Let's go.

64
00:02:50,160 --> 00:02:51,000
Captain Fan.

65
00:02:51,080 --> 00:02:52,680
YAMEN

66
00:02:55,360 --> 00:02:56,360
Go ahead.

67
00:02:57,920 --> 00:02:58,760
Let's go.

68
00:03:03,840 --> 00:03:06,480
Call her my sister
it was a temporary measure.

69
00:03:06,560 --> 00:03:08,280
There is gossip in the army.

70
00:03:08,360 --> 00:03:10,480
If this offended you, don't take it seriously.

71
00:03:11,360 --> 00:03:12,360
How could I?

72
00:03:12,880 --> 00:03:15,040
I always considered it
like an older brother.

73
00:03:15,720 --> 00:03:16,960
I'm just afraid I don't deserve it.

74
00:03:17,040 --> 00:03:20,080
After all, I hardly read any military books,

75
00:03:20,600 --> 00:03:21,720
and I know few characters.

76
00:03:23,600 --> 00:03:25,600
We know someone
by internal qualities.

77
00:03:25,680 --> 00:03:26,920
Not by reading and writing.

78
00:03:27,880 --> 00:03:31,320
So, like your sister,
I salute you, my brother.

79
00:03:32,480 --> 00:03:33,400
If so?

80
00:03:38,120 --> 00:03:40,320
I return the greetings. That's how it is said.

81
00:03:41,440 --> 00:03:42,560
Then I will withdraw.

82
00:05:28,080 --> 00:05:30,360
ADAPTED FROM THE NOVEL <i>ZHU YU</i>
BY TUAN ZI LAI XI ON JJWXC.NET

83
00:05:33,160 --> 00:05:34,880
HALL OF WEAPONS

84
00:05:34,960 --> 00:05:36,920
This is absolutely outrageous!

85
00:05:37,720 --> 00:05:39,400
Even in the palace,

86
00:05:39,480 --> 00:05:41,960
I have never been treated with so much disrespect.

87
00:05:46,240 --> 00:05:47,120
What are you doing?

88
00:05:47,200 --> 00:05:49,600
Do you still expect me to drink this?

89
00:05:49,680 --> 00:05:51,360
No. It's been days.

90
00:05:52,800 --> 00:05:55,000
The Marquis of Wu'an did not return

91
00:05:55,080 --> 00:05:57,000
and the Grand Princess will not see me.

92
00:05:57,800 --> 00:05:58,960
I'll say one thing.

93
00:05:59,480 --> 00:06:02,840
If you make me wait here like this today,

94
00:06:02,920 --> 00:06:05,560
I will leave immediately for the capital!

95
00:06:05,640 --> 00:06:08,760
I will go before the emperor.
I will file an imperial complaint.

96
00:06:11,120 --> 00:06:12,360
Why all the commotion?

97
00:06:14,880 --> 00:06:18,240
Greetings to the Grand Princess.

98
00:06:19,840 --> 00:06:22,760
Your Highness is concerned
so much with the soldiers that he cannot

99
00:06:22,840 --> 00:06:25,320
see me all these days.

100
00:06:25,400 --> 00:06:27,600
How touching.

101
00:06:27,680 --> 00:06:28,600
You can go.

102
00:06:31,400 --> 00:06:32,960
Lately, I've been overwhelmed,

103
00:06:33,040 --> 00:06:34,920
no time to waste.

104
00:06:35,000 --> 00:06:36,480
Hope you understand.

105
00:06:37,600 --> 00:06:40,880
May I ask why you came to me?

106
00:06:40,960 --> 00:06:43,000
Your Highness is out
of the palace for some time.

107
00:06:43,080 --> 00:06:46,760
The Emperor and Empress Dowager An
they are very worried.

108
00:06:46,840 --> 00:06:50,480
So they sent me to see
how the Grand Princess is doing.

109
00:06:52,840 --> 00:06:54,360
My mother and the emperor

110
00:06:54,880 --> 00:06:57,040
You know I'm here, on the northwest front,

111
00:06:57,920 --> 00:06:59,160
and aren't they mad?

112
00:07:02,920 --> 00:07:04,640
Eunuch, be direct.

113
00:07:05,800 --> 00:07:07,920
Your Highness is remarkably perceptive.

114
00:07:08,000 --> 00:07:10,120
In fact, before I arrived,

115
00:07:10,200 --> 00:07:15,000
the emperor and empress dowager An
I was asked

116
00:07:15,080 --> 00:07:17,800
that transmitted
a message to Your Highness:

117
00:07:18,960 --> 00:07:22,760
"Now that the Chongzhou rebels
were pacified,

118
00:07:22,840 --> 00:07:25,000
and while the whole nation celebrates,

119
00:07:25,600 --> 00:07:27,600
her marriage to the Marquis,

120
00:07:27,680 --> 00:07:30,560
- it better happen as soon as possible."
- What did you say?

121
00:07:31,760 --> 00:07:33,600
My marriage to whom?

122
00:07:35,160 --> 00:07:36,800
The Marquis of Wu'an.

123
00:07:37,320 --> 00:07:38,280
Absurd!

124
00:07:40,160 --> 00:07:41,320
My brother is easy to influence.

125
00:07:42,200 --> 00:07:45,040
It must be you, foolish servants,
remembering old things

126
00:07:45,120 --> 00:07:47,880
and fanning the flames
that made him think about it.

127
00:07:48,400 --> 00:07:51,040
This marriage, I do not accept.

128
00:07:54,920 --> 00:07:57,320
Your Highness is outside the palace
less than half a year ago.

129
00:07:57,400 --> 00:08:00,680
When did you learn to swear?

130
00:08:04,040 --> 00:08:05,840
The Marquis has great military achievements.

131
00:08:05,920 --> 00:08:09,080
In all aspects,
it is a pair of the highest order.

132
00:08:09,920 --> 00:08:14,080
Furthermore, this is the emperor’s decree.

133
00:08:14,160 --> 00:08:15,520
You certainly don't think about...

134
00:08:16,280 --> 00:08:18,680
defy an imperial order?

135
00:08:30,480 --> 00:08:31,880
About this wedding,

136
00:08:32,480 --> 00:08:34,880
It's best to talk to the Marquis first.

137
00:08:36,000 --> 00:08:37,159
If he agrees,

138
00:08:37,919 --> 00:08:39,200
so I agree.

139
00:08:42,240 --> 00:08:43,960
No problem.

140
00:08:45,080 --> 00:08:47,560
I will take care of it immediately.

141
00:08:55,400 --> 00:08:57,720
Transmit it to the emperor for me…

142
00:08:58,520 --> 00:08:59,600
I'm grateful...

143
00:09:00,640 --> 00:09:02,840
by the care of my imperial brother.

144
00:09:02,920 --> 00:09:06,000
I will leave now.

145
00:09:15,440 --> 00:09:17,160
I finally felt relieved.

146
00:09:20,040 --> 00:09:21,720
HE

147
00:09:23,720 --> 00:09:25,960
It's been days.

148
00:09:26,480 --> 00:09:30,360
Busy or not, the Marquis cannot
leave an imperial decree waiting.

149
00:09:31,360 --> 00:09:33,200
It's a military camp. Stop here.

150
00:09:36,040 --> 00:09:37,200
Excellent.

151
00:09:37,720 --> 00:09:40,600
Open wide your useless eyes
to see clearly!

152
00:09:40,680 --> 00:09:42,840
I have the imperial decree right here!

153
00:09:44,600 --> 00:09:48,000
Let's see
who dares to stop me today!

154
00:09:49,680 --> 00:09:50,560
Let's go.

155
00:09:58,000 --> 00:09:59,120
Stop.

156
00:10:01,320 --> 00:10:03,920
I know the Marquis is busy
with official duties.

157
00:10:04,000 --> 00:10:05,560
But in these last days,

158
00:10:05,640 --> 00:10:09,520
He didn't find a moment to see me.

159
00:10:09,600 --> 00:10:12,840
With no other alternative,
I brought the imperial decree

160
00:10:12,920 --> 00:10:16,280
and I came personally to bother you.

161
00:10:18,920 --> 00:10:19,760
Between.

162
00:10:24,200 --> 00:10:25,040
Please.

163
00:10:33,160 --> 00:10:35,720
Greetings to the Marquis.

164
00:10:39,720 --> 00:10:41,320
What urgent matter brings you, eunuch?

165
00:10:42,440 --> 00:10:43,800
Daring to enter the camp

166
00:10:44,320 --> 00:10:46,000
without permission just to see me?

167
00:10:49,600 --> 00:10:53,680
Marquis, this is tremendously good news!

168
00:10:56,960 --> 00:10:59,240
The emperor issued a decree.

169
00:11:04,080 --> 00:11:04,960
Marquis of Wu'an…

170
00:11:10,520 --> 00:11:13,080
The Marquis doesn't need
kneel to listen.

171
00:11:14,600 --> 00:11:17,400
The emperor decrees:
"Heaven bless our dynasty.

172
00:11:17,480 --> 00:11:20,680
Now that the Chongzhou rebels
were defeated

173
00:11:20,760 --> 00:11:23,880
and the nation rejoices,

174
00:11:23,960 --> 00:11:27,200
the wedding between the Grand Princess
and the Marquis of Wu'an must be

175
00:11:27,280 --> 00:11:29,800
- completed as soon as possible…
- Eunuch, don't talk anymore.

176
00:11:30,400 --> 00:11:32,160
Go back and tell the young emperor

177
00:11:32,840 --> 00:11:34,560
what urgent matters stop me

178
00:11:35,080 --> 00:11:36,520
to receive the decree.

179
00:11:36,600 --> 00:11:39,560
Consider today's words never spoken.

180
00:11:40,560 --> 00:11:44,080
And no one else here will say
a word about that.

181
00:11:45,680 --> 00:11:49,600
I wouldn't dare commit such an act
to deceive the emperor.

182
00:11:50,320 --> 00:11:55,720
Furthermore, this is the emperor's favor
towards the Marquis.

183
00:11:55,800 --> 00:11:59,040
Just a nod of the head,
I just need this,

184
00:11:59,120 --> 00:12:03,680
and I can return to the capital
and report to the emperor.

185
00:12:05,320 --> 00:12:06,720
But what if I…

186
00:12:08,080 --> 00:12:09,560
refuse me?

187
00:12:10,840 --> 00:12:12,160
Refuse…

188
00:12:14,200 --> 00:12:19,080
Marquis, are you saying
who would defy the decree?

189
00:12:19,920 --> 00:12:22,760
I wouldn't dare deceive the emperor.

190
00:12:24,640 --> 00:12:25,480
Challenge?

191
00:12:33,160 --> 00:12:35,760
Marquis, what do you think you're doing?

192
00:12:41,960 --> 00:12:43,080
Marquis of Wu'an…

193
00:12:43,600 --> 00:12:47,040
Are you really planning a rebellion?

194
00:12:53,680 --> 00:12:57,200
The Xie family
served Dayin loyally for a hundred years.

195
00:12:58,560 --> 00:13:00,600
My father even earned the title of martyr.

196
00:13:02,480 --> 00:13:04,680
I don't want to tarnish his name.

197
00:13:08,680 --> 00:13:10,560
Go back and tell the young emperor:

198
00:13:11,560 --> 00:13:13,480
if he doesn't want to sit on that throne,

199
00:13:14,200 --> 00:13:16,280
I find someone else to take his place.

200
00:13:16,880 --> 00:13:18,320
17 years ago,

201
00:13:18,400 --> 00:13:20,320
Wei Yan helped him ascend the throne.

202
00:13:21,600 --> 00:13:22,760
Today,

203
00:13:23,720 --> 00:13:25,600
I can easily take him down.

204
00:13:26,440 --> 00:13:28,040
What?

205
00:13:28,600 --> 00:13:29,480
Marquis of Wu'an,

206
00:13:30,000 --> 00:13:32,760
Do you realize that you are threatening the emperor?

207
00:13:35,400 --> 00:13:37,320
Marquis, don't kill me.

208
00:13:37,400 --> 00:13:40,800
I'm just the messenger of the decree.

209
00:13:48,040 --> 00:13:52,320
I wish only harmony
between ruler and subject.

210
00:13:53,440 --> 00:13:55,680
If you distort my words,

211
00:13:57,120 --> 00:13:58,760
that they do not compromise
State issues.

212
00:14:00,640 --> 00:14:01,520
Thanks.

213
00:14:02,040 --> 00:14:05,240
Thank you, Marquis, for sparing my life.

214
00:14:15,880 --> 00:14:17,360
- Yeah...
- Take it away.

215
00:14:28,120 --> 00:14:29,200
Let's go quickly!

216
00:14:29,920 --> 00:14:32,080
Be kind.

217
00:14:33,520 --> 00:14:35,520
ARMED AND IRREDUCIBLE

218
00:14:43,360 --> 00:14:45,160
Xie Jiuheng.

219
00:14:45,840 --> 00:14:48,600
Eunuch Li came here by imperial order.

220
00:14:48,680 --> 00:14:51,800
Cut off his ear...
It's a slap in the face to the emperor.

221
00:14:51,880 --> 00:14:53,280
And now?

222
00:14:53,960 --> 00:14:54,920
Are we fighting with the court?

223
00:14:57,280 --> 00:14:59,440
The young emperor still plays dumb

224
00:14:59,520 --> 00:15:01,000
under Wei Yan's control.

225
00:15:01,080 --> 00:15:02,480
You dare turn against me?

226
00:15:05,960 --> 00:15:07,960
The emperor has been on the throne since he was a child.

227
00:15:08,040 --> 00:15:10,320
His power was usurped
by Chancellor Wei for years.

228
00:15:10,400 --> 00:15:13,200
At this point,
you must be desperate for power.

229
00:15:13,280 --> 00:15:15,400
I don't think you'll let this go.

230
00:15:16,000 --> 00:15:18,040
If he doesn't want that throne,

231
00:15:18,120 --> 00:15:19,560
I can find another one.

232
00:15:20,800 --> 00:15:21,960
Turns out I've been

233
00:15:23,080 --> 00:15:24,680
considering deposing the emperor.

234
00:15:27,080 --> 00:15:28,160
Depose the emperor?

235
00:15:29,200 --> 00:15:30,040
It is serious?

236
00:15:38,040 --> 00:15:42,360
I know it's hard to see the mud
in the court of Dayin.

237
00:15:43,040 --> 00:15:45,640
And I know you don't want to serve
to such a useless ruler.

238
00:15:46,400 --> 00:15:47,240
But if…

239
00:15:47,920 --> 00:15:50,400
we support the emperor's great-grandson
in ten or 20 years,

240
00:15:50,480 --> 00:15:53,880
who can guarantee that Yu Bao'er
won't it become another Qi Sheng?

241
00:15:58,320 --> 00:16:00,360
I don't know what Yu Bao'er will become

242
00:16:00,440 --> 00:16:01,440
in the future.

243
00:16:02,360 --> 00:16:04,720
But I will never become another Wei Yan.

244
00:16:08,280 --> 00:16:10,280
Very good. By the way,

245
00:16:11,080 --> 00:16:12,280
Won't you go back to Jizhou?

246
00:16:13,040 --> 00:16:13,880
For what?

247
00:16:15,880 --> 00:16:19,080
That Li Huai'an keeps visiting
Mrs. Fan every other day.

248
00:16:19,160 --> 00:16:20,600
Aren't you worried?

249
00:16:25,200 --> 00:16:26,760
Don't look at me like that.

250
00:16:27,280 --> 00:16:29,920
They began to call each other brothers,
trying to get closer.

251
00:16:30,000 --> 00:16:32,440
And he will take advantage
of her vulnerability.

252
00:16:32,520 --> 00:16:34,360
- The most basic tactic…
- Enough.

253
00:16:34,880 --> 00:16:36,720
- You are the refined one. Happy?
- I…

254
00:16:36,800 --> 00:16:37,640
Mind your own business.

255
00:16:38,240 --> 00:16:39,160
Report!

256
00:16:40,600 --> 00:16:41,760
Marquis,

257
00:16:41,840 --> 00:16:44,240
Sui Yuanqing, with the rest of Chongzhou,
is attacking.

258
00:16:52,200 --> 00:16:53,320
How many troops?

259
00:16:53,400 --> 00:16:54,960
Just a few dozen soldiers,

260
00:16:55,040 --> 00:16:57,600
attacking the gate like crazy,
without reinforcements.

261
00:16:57,680 --> 00:16:59,640
<i>It looks like they came to die.</i>

262
00:17:06,680 --> 00:17:08,280
Xie Zheng!

263
00:17:09,200 --> 00:17:11,599
Get out, you coward!

264
00:17:12,720 --> 00:17:15,800
Let's solve this today!

265
00:17:33,800 --> 00:17:35,640
Why go through this, young heir?

266
00:17:36,200 --> 00:17:37,640
Why did you come to die?

267
00:17:40,920 --> 00:17:42,680
What false compassion!

268
00:17:43,280 --> 00:17:45,520
You and Fan Changyu killed my father.

269
00:17:46,360 --> 00:17:47,720
If I don't avenge him,

270
00:17:48,480 --> 00:17:49,720
I'm not good for living.

271
00:17:50,480 --> 00:17:51,880
Prepare to die!

272
00:18:10,520 --> 00:18:14,040
CHONGZHOU

273
00:18:14,640 --> 00:18:16,560
If he believes, fine.

274
00:18:16,640 --> 00:18:17,640
If not,

275
00:18:18,680 --> 00:18:20,600
destroy the seal
from the Eastern Palace on time.

276
00:18:20,680 --> 00:18:22,640
It must never fall into the hands of others.

277
00:18:23,160 --> 00:18:24,040
Okay, master.

278
00:18:30,280 --> 00:18:32,200
LADY YIN, PRINCESS OF CHANGXIN

279
00:18:34,800 --> 00:18:35,640
Mom?

280
00:18:42,080 --> 00:18:42,960
What brings you here?

281
00:18:44,360 --> 00:18:46,240
Why do you treat your brother like this?

282
00:18:50,240 --> 00:18:53,520
Yuanqing said that he wanted to avenge his father.

283
00:18:54,320 --> 00:18:57,040
This is filial piety.
I couldn't stop him.

284
00:18:57,120 --> 00:18:58,200
Filial piety?

285
00:18:58,280 --> 00:19:00,360
So why don't you fulfill it?

286
00:19:02,360 --> 00:19:04,720
I have to stay and take care of you, mom.

287
00:19:05,600 --> 00:19:08,640
Do you know that the Marquis of Wu'an
is hunting you everywhere.

288
00:19:09,440 --> 00:19:12,680
And still incited Yuanqing
to avenge the prince. How cruel!

289
00:19:20,200 --> 00:19:22,280
Dad never liked me.

290
00:19:23,880 --> 00:19:25,440
And in your heart,

291
00:19:26,320 --> 00:19:27,800
You also prefer Yuanqing, don't you?

292
00:19:28,840 --> 00:19:29,800
He is my son.

293
00:19:30,440 --> 00:19:31,560
Of course I prefer him.

294
00:19:37,360 --> 00:19:38,280
Mom,

295
00:19:39,840 --> 00:19:41,040
What do you mean by that?

296
00:19:42,040 --> 00:19:43,200
What a mother

297
00:19:44,440 --> 00:19:47,240
Don't you recognize your own son?

298
00:19:50,960 --> 00:19:53,440
After that fire 17 years ago,

299
00:19:53,960 --> 00:19:55,520
I brought you back.

300
00:19:57,800 --> 00:19:58,960
Initially,

301
00:20:00,000 --> 00:20:02,440
Seeing him so disfigured, my heart ached.

302
00:20:03,920 --> 00:20:07,520
But when I discovered that it wasn't Yuanhuai,
my heart hurt even more.

303
00:20:12,600 --> 00:20:14,040
You knew it all along.

304
00:20:18,360 --> 00:20:19,320
So,

305
00:20:19,960 --> 00:20:21,880
Why didn't you expose me right away?

306
00:20:22,480 --> 00:20:23,520
You were alone

307
00:20:24,200 --> 00:20:25,800
a small child at the time,

308
00:20:27,280 --> 00:20:30,160
disfigured by the Crown Princess
just to survive.

309
00:20:31,120 --> 00:20:33,480
While recovering at Changxin Mansion,

310
00:20:33,560 --> 00:20:35,520
it was so pitiful,

311
00:20:36,040 --> 00:20:38,440
crying every day for his mother.

312
00:20:39,080 --> 00:20:41,360
It softened my heart.

313
00:20:42,520 --> 00:20:43,440
I thought:

314
00:20:44,560 --> 00:20:48,480
since heaven allowed him to live
in my son's place, let him live well.

315
00:20:50,600 --> 00:20:54,000
Consider good karma for my Yuanhuai,
who died unjustly.

316
00:20:55,880 --> 00:20:57,600
But I was wrong.

317
00:20:58,640 --> 00:21:02,520
I thought you were a lost dog.
I never imagined it was a hungry wolf.

318
00:21:04,160 --> 00:21:05,880
My biggest regret

319
00:21:06,520 --> 00:21:08,120
went to take a viper for a son,

320
00:21:08,920 --> 00:21:11,040
becoming a mother to someone so poisonous.

321
00:21:21,160 --> 00:21:26,880
I am Qi Min, grandson of the Crown Prince
of the Eastern Palace.

322
00:21:34,000 --> 00:21:36,040
Be my mother

323
00:21:38,080 --> 00:21:38,960
Isn't that enough?

324
00:21:44,360 --> 00:21:45,600
I only have

325
00:21:46,320 --> 00:21:48,640
Yuanqing and Yuanhuai as my children.

326
00:21:50,160 --> 00:21:51,000
You…

327
00:21:51,920 --> 00:21:53,040
didn't deserve it!

328
00:22:33,120 --> 00:22:34,600
Don't think that just because you were kind,

329
00:22:35,840 --> 00:22:37,520
I wouldn't kill her.

330
00:22:42,240 --> 00:22:44,440
I gave you a chance.

331
00:22:47,840 --> 00:22:49,160
But don't worry.

332
00:22:50,440 --> 00:22:56,120
Soon Xie Zheng will send Sui Yuanqing
to your side to fulfill your filial duty.

333
00:23:24,480 --> 00:23:27,960
- Take her body. It may still be useful.
- Yes sir.

334
00:23:36,800 --> 00:23:39,960
HE

335
00:23:46,960 --> 00:23:48,200
Come in.

336
00:23:53,000 --> 00:23:53,840
fan,

337
00:23:54,600 --> 00:23:56,840
is it true that your husband
Will he be prince consort?

338
00:23:59,440 --> 00:24:01,080
I thought Li Menkan
would marry the princess.

339
00:24:01,160 --> 00:24:03,680
Swap fiancés suddenly
on something so big? Serious?

340
00:24:04,760 --> 00:24:05,840
I don't want to talk about it.

341
00:24:11,080 --> 00:24:11,920
Very good.

342
00:24:17,920 --> 00:24:20,440
He asked me to investigate
the Sui Yuanhuai. I have something.

343
00:24:22,400 --> 00:24:25,200
They say tonight
they will send a large force.

344
00:24:25,280 --> 00:24:27,480
It must be
a massive hunt to capture him.

345
00:24:28,760 --> 00:24:31,080
This traitor is more cunning

346
00:24:31,600 --> 00:24:33,280
than a fox or a weasel.

347
00:24:33,360 --> 00:24:34,720
Even the troops her husband…

348
00:24:37,880 --> 00:24:39,800
I mean, that the Marquis of Wu'an

349
00:24:40,320 --> 00:24:42,200
sent, he deceived them several times.

350
00:24:44,720 --> 00:24:46,000
He's causing trouble.

351
00:24:47,360 --> 00:24:50,600
When we are tired of searching,
it will disappear.

352
00:24:54,080 --> 00:24:56,360
So he is a son
of some crown prince?

353
00:24:56,440 --> 00:24:57,520
He could have…

354
00:24:58,960 --> 00:25:00,080
been the emperor?

355
00:25:01,880 --> 00:25:03,280
It could have been.

356
00:25:06,480 --> 00:25:08,720
If he is so noble,

357
00:25:09,720 --> 00:25:12,160
Why would I pretend to be Sui Yuanhuai?

358
00:25:13,160 --> 00:25:15,440
You've seen a lot of theater.
You see this all the time, right?

359
00:25:16,040 --> 00:25:18,880
These nobles and lords,
plotting and fighting day after day.

360
00:25:19,400 --> 00:25:22,520
It is greed for the throne and power,
like flies after meat.

361
00:25:29,840 --> 00:25:31,000
Fan, what are you looking at?

362
00:25:33,200 --> 00:25:34,600
Qian once said

363
00:25:35,120 --> 00:25:36,920
that he is terrified of fire,

364
00:25:37,000 --> 00:25:38,760
Nor does he turn on a lamp at night.

365
00:25:43,000 --> 00:25:44,920
If that's the case,

366
00:25:46,160 --> 00:25:49,920
we can look for houses
that should have light bulbs on

367
00:25:50,680 --> 00:25:52,520
but they are pitch black.

368
00:25:52,600 --> 00:25:54,800
This narrows the search.

369
00:25:54,880 --> 00:25:56,960
Why do you want to find him so much?

370
00:25:57,040 --> 00:25:59,040
Just to get back at Miss. Yu?

371
00:26:01,160 --> 00:26:03,400
You wouldn't understand. That man…

372
00:26:05,760 --> 00:26:07,520
it could be connected to something huge.

373
00:26:08,400 --> 00:26:10,880
He showed a Tiger Badge.

374
00:26:10,960 --> 00:26:13,000
Said it had something to do
with the Jinzhou tragedy.

375
00:26:13,080 --> 00:26:14,440
Is it connected to Jinzhou?

376
00:26:18,080 --> 00:26:20,080
So Yan Zheng must want to catch him

377
00:26:20,160 --> 00:26:21,400
and get answers.

378
00:26:22,600 --> 00:26:25,680
Take my badge.
Tell them there's an operation tonight.

379
00:26:25,760 --> 00:26:27,360
A training session for our squad.

380
00:26:28,720 --> 00:26:29,600
I understood.

381
00:27:01,720 --> 00:27:03,360
- There's someone there. Surround.
- Yes.

382
00:27:10,440 --> 00:27:13,600
GRACE IN THE HEART, PURITY IN FORM

383
00:27:30,240 --> 00:27:33,160
The throat was cut.
It looks like he died some time ago.

384
00:27:34,360 --> 00:27:35,760
How did he die?

385
00:27:38,160 --> 00:27:40,680
Continue the search.
See if he has the Tiger Badge.

386
00:27:41,800 --> 00:27:42,840
What tiger?

387
00:27:43,520 --> 00:27:45,840
The Tiger Badge, like in the operas.
Search him.

388
00:27:45,920 --> 00:27:46,840
Right.

389
00:28:16,920 --> 00:28:18,840
Captain Fan Changyu greets
the Marquis.

390
00:28:21,360 --> 00:28:24,200
Jin Changsheng greets
the princess's consort.

391
00:28:25,360 --> 00:28:27,680
Speak again
and will be transferred to the kitchen.

392
00:28:28,840 --> 00:28:30,040
Yes, the princess's consort.

393
00:28:30,760 --> 00:28:32,840
I'm coming, princess consort.

394
00:28:43,520 --> 00:28:44,680
Sui Yuanhuai died.

395
00:28:45,800 --> 00:28:48,240
That track… went cold.

396
00:29:01,440 --> 00:29:03,400
Did Sui Yuanhuai die like this?

397
00:29:13,600 --> 00:29:15,120
It looks a lot like Sui Yuanhuai.

398
00:29:17,480 --> 00:29:18,560
All the evidence

399
00:29:19,320 --> 00:29:21,200
point to his death.

400
00:29:22,360 --> 00:29:24,440
But the more proof,
the more suspicious it becomes.

401
00:29:25,160 --> 00:29:26,960
Ask Zhao Xun to identify him.

402
00:29:27,480 --> 00:29:28,880
Anyway,

403
00:29:28,960 --> 00:29:31,360
Sui Yuanhuai no longer exists in this world.

404
00:29:40,440 --> 00:29:42,520
For years there have been rumors

405
00:29:42,600 --> 00:29:45,160
that Wei Yan had the insignia
to look for reinforcements

406
00:29:45,240 --> 00:29:46,640
to break the siege in Jinzhou.

407
00:29:47,240 --> 00:29:49,880
But on the way,
he suddenly returned to the capital,

408
00:29:49,960 --> 00:29:51,160
delaying rescue.

409
00:29:53,720 --> 00:29:56,760
At the time, Wei Qilin took the grains,
but went to Chongzhou.

410
00:29:57,560 --> 00:29:59,200
Wei Yan must have sent
he wears the badge

411
00:29:59,280 --> 00:30:00,480
and mobilize troops there.

412
00:30:02,320 --> 00:30:05,400
But in the end,
Prince Changxin never sent troops,

413
00:30:05,480 --> 00:30:06,840
the grains were late

414
00:30:07,480 --> 00:30:08,760
and no one knows why.

415
00:30:15,120 --> 00:30:17,640
If Prince Changxin saw the insignia,

416
00:30:17,720 --> 00:30:19,800
claimed it was false
and did not send the troops…

417
00:30:22,200 --> 00:30:25,640
It would mean
that Wei Qilin was wronged.

418
00:30:27,920 --> 00:30:28,920
It seems like…

419
00:30:30,680 --> 00:30:33,040
we are getting closer to the truth

420
00:30:34,080 --> 00:30:35,120
about Jinzhou.

421
00:30:35,720 --> 00:30:37,720
If only we could find the insignia.

422
00:30:38,480 --> 00:30:40,480
I looked through my belongings
of Prince Changxin,

423
00:30:40,560 --> 00:30:42,840
even Sui Yuanqing's things.

424
00:30:42,920 --> 00:30:43,920
Nothing.

425
00:30:44,000 --> 00:30:45,200
That Sui Yuanqing

426
00:30:45,280 --> 00:30:47,800
prefer to be tortured
to tell us where it is.

427
00:30:47,880 --> 00:30:49,480
He even dared to mock me.

428
00:30:50,080 --> 00:30:52,320
I should have let Mrs. Fan kill him.

429
00:30:59,720 --> 00:31:00,560
Marquis,

430
00:31:01,720 --> 00:31:03,560
Zhao Xun examined the body.

431
00:31:03,640 --> 00:31:04,480
As suspected,

432
00:31:04,560 --> 00:31:06,440
the dead man is not Sui Yuanhuai.

433
00:31:06,520 --> 00:31:08,160
He is a look-alike created by nanny Lan.

434
00:31:09,280 --> 00:31:10,680
The lookalike is not only similar,

435
00:31:11,280 --> 00:31:14,000
even the burn marks
they are meticulous replicas.

436
00:31:14,680 --> 00:31:17,520
The woman's identity
Who died in the mansion has been confirmed?

437
00:31:18,200 --> 00:31:19,360
Zhao Xun identified her.

438
00:31:19,440 --> 00:31:20,640
It's the Princess of Changxin.

439
00:31:25,440 --> 00:31:28,440
Killed his own adoptive mother
just to save yourself.

440
00:31:29,600 --> 00:31:32,160
To capture Sui Yuanhuai… No,

441
00:31:32,960 --> 00:31:34,600
It's time to call him by his real name.

442
00:31:36,040 --> 00:31:37,400
To capture Qi Min,

443
00:31:37,920 --> 00:31:39,640
We'll need other clues.

444
00:31:40,400 --> 00:31:41,240
Something else?

445
00:31:43,360 --> 00:31:44,600
All leads have gone cold.

446
00:31:45,520 --> 00:31:46,800
The strange thing is,

447
00:31:46,880 --> 00:31:50,000
whenever we get closer,
it seems like they are waiting for us.

448
00:31:50,720 --> 00:31:53,840
I suspect he has eyes
inside the command.

449
00:32:00,160 --> 00:32:03,000
It looks like someone
is being used as a pawn,

450
00:32:03,080 --> 00:32:05,120
and still thinks he's fighting for justice.

451
00:32:06,800 --> 00:32:09,000
Marquis, what's our next step?

452
00:32:11,160 --> 00:32:12,760
Take Zhao Xun to see Sui Yuanqing.

453
00:32:13,280 --> 00:32:15,960
Take the news
of the death of the Princess of Changxin.

454
00:32:17,920 --> 00:32:19,880
Squad one, left. Two, on the right.

455
00:32:20,640 --> 00:32:22,080
Fan formation.

456
00:32:22,160 --> 00:32:23,000
Yes sir.

457
00:32:23,520 --> 00:32:24,640
Look at bushes and rocks.

458
00:32:24,720 --> 00:32:27,320
Understood. Check everything,
don't miss anything.

459
00:32:27,400 --> 00:32:28,560
- Let's go.
- Look there.

460
00:32:30,040 --> 00:32:31,520
Nothing here.

461
00:32:31,600 --> 00:32:32,680
There.

462
00:32:32,760 --> 00:32:33,600
Follow me.

463
00:32:36,800 --> 00:32:38,760
Master, it is the Xie army.

464
00:32:41,880 --> 00:32:43,640
Sui Yuanqing was not enough.

465
00:32:44,760 --> 00:32:46,200
It seems that the Marquis

466
00:32:46,720 --> 00:32:49,240
won't stop until he gets my head.

467
00:32:50,560 --> 00:32:51,880
And the whereabouts of the lady?

468
00:32:52,720 --> 00:32:54,040
No signal yet.

469
00:33:03,280 --> 00:33:06,160
Master, the Li family took a lot from us

470
00:33:06,240 --> 00:33:08,120
and there is still no sign of their support.

471
00:33:08,200 --> 00:33:10,240
They're letting the Marquis hunt us down.

472
00:33:10,320 --> 00:33:11,760
Did they change their mind?

473
00:33:13,840 --> 00:33:15,520
If they had changed their minds,

474
00:33:15,600 --> 00:33:17,280
we would have already been captured.

475
00:33:18,760 --> 00:33:21,640
But, despite being grandfather and grandson,

476
00:33:22,880 --> 00:33:27,040
the Great Tutor Li and Li Huai'an
They're really not in tune.

477
00:33:33,840 --> 00:33:35,160
It's almost time.

478
00:33:35,240 --> 00:33:36,240
It should arrive soon,

479
00:33:37,080 --> 00:33:38,800
if he believed me.

480
00:33:43,160 --> 00:33:44,040
Teacher.

481
00:33:52,920 --> 00:33:54,560
By Grand Tutor Li's help,

482
00:33:55,080 --> 00:33:57,080
I'm very satisfied.

483
00:34:34,520 --> 00:34:36,719
- I need to say something.
- I don't want to hear it.

484
00:34:36,800 --> 00:34:38,120
I just want you to know.

485
00:34:40,239 --> 00:34:42,239
Anyone can be prince consort.

486
00:34:43,080 --> 00:34:44,280
But I, Xie Zheng, do not.

487
00:34:46,520 --> 00:34:48,239
I joined your family.

488
00:34:48,760 --> 00:34:50,639
I belong only to Fan Changyu.

489
00:34:52,320 --> 00:34:53,520
In this life,

490
00:34:54,960 --> 00:34:56,199
my heart is only yours.

491
00:35:20,560 --> 00:35:21,440
You…

492
00:35:25,280 --> 00:35:26,920
Can you stop being so nice to me?

493
00:35:27,960 --> 00:35:29,200
The kinder it is,

494
00:35:30,880 --> 00:35:31,880
I feel worse.

495
00:35:33,880 --> 00:35:35,520
Is it because of who you are?

496
00:35:37,800 --> 00:35:38,920
You know?

497
00:35:46,560 --> 00:35:47,840
I saw that letter.

498
00:35:48,680 --> 00:35:50,040
I know he was your father.

499
00:35:51,600 --> 00:35:53,120
I also know what you're afraid of.

500
00:35:54,680 --> 00:35:56,280
But I want you to know.

501
00:35:57,120 --> 00:35:58,800
I will continue investigating,

502
00:35:59,960 --> 00:36:01,240
until you find the truth.

503
00:36:03,400 --> 00:36:04,720
And on this path…

504
00:36:06,080 --> 00:36:07,160
I want to be with you.

505
00:36:21,280 --> 00:36:22,800
But Sui Yuanhuai is dead.

506
00:36:23,640 --> 00:36:27,200
What if the truth is not what we think?

507
00:36:35,640 --> 00:36:36,760
That's the second thing

508
00:36:37,720 --> 00:36:38,960
that I wanted to tell you.

509
00:36:39,800 --> 00:36:40,960
I'm planning...

510
00:36:43,160 --> 00:36:44,200
release Sui Yuanqing.

511
00:36:45,000 --> 00:36:45,960
What?

512
00:37:02,680 --> 00:37:04,520
- You can go.
- Yes.

513
00:37:09,520 --> 00:37:10,360
Young heir.

514
00:37:11,400 --> 00:37:13,040
Zhao Xun.

515
00:37:13,120 --> 00:37:14,760
You traitor!

516
00:37:14,840 --> 00:37:16,400
You betrayed my older brother!

517
00:37:18,240 --> 00:37:19,120
Young heir,

518
00:37:19,880 --> 00:37:21,960
it was his brother who betrayed him.

519
00:37:25,640 --> 00:37:26,880
A traitor.

520
00:37:28,160 --> 00:37:30,320
Seeing that my older brother has already escaped,

521
00:37:31,040 --> 00:37:32,720
wants to force a confession from the Marquis

522
00:37:33,600 --> 00:37:35,720
and create a division between us brothers.

523
00:37:36,520 --> 00:37:38,480
Don't bother.

524
00:37:39,400 --> 00:37:41,120
Even if I can't kill you today,

525
00:37:43,080 --> 00:37:45,520
my brother will avenge me soon.

526
00:37:47,560 --> 00:37:51,200
And the death of Princess Changxin,
who will avenge her?

527
00:37:56,040 --> 00:37:57,200
Is the mother dead?

528
00:38:02,040 --> 00:38:03,640
Marquis of Wu'an!

529
00:38:04,160 --> 00:38:05,600
What a hero you are,

530
00:38:05,680 --> 00:38:08,280
raising a hand to a woman!

531
00:38:08,880 --> 00:38:11,320
Who killed the princess
it was not the Marquis of Wu'an.

532
00:38:11,400 --> 00:38:12,600
It was Sui Yuanhuai.

533
00:38:13,200 --> 00:38:14,040
No.

534
00:38:14,600 --> 00:38:16,520
We should call him Qi Min.

535
00:38:19,960 --> 00:38:21,280
Who?

536
00:38:21,360 --> 00:38:22,520
All these years,

537
00:38:23,040 --> 00:38:24,800
your dear older brother,

538
00:38:24,880 --> 00:38:26,320
it is not Sui Yuanhuai.

539
00:38:26,840 --> 00:38:28,160
He is Qi Min,

540
00:38:28,760 --> 00:38:32,560
the former grandson of the Eastern Palace,
killed by Prince Changxin.

541
00:38:33,320 --> 00:38:34,800
The real Sui Yuanhuai

542
00:38:34,880 --> 00:38:37,000
died 17 years ago,

543
00:38:37,080 --> 00:38:39,120
in the fire at the Eastern Palace.

544
00:38:47,840 --> 00:38:48,760
No.

545
00:38:51,840 --> 00:38:52,760
Impossible.

546
00:38:56,600 --> 00:39:00,000
You're just using me
to go after my brother.

547
00:39:01,040 --> 00:39:02,200
Young heir,

548
00:39:02,920 --> 00:39:04,120
wake up.

549
00:39:05,160 --> 00:39:08,880
Qi Min killed the princess
to fake his own death and escape.

550
00:39:12,120 --> 00:39:14,960
He has already recovered his identity
as imperial grandson.

551
00:39:15,760 --> 00:39:19,440
It was Qi Min who destroyed his family
and Prince Changxin's mansion.

552
00:39:23,920 --> 00:39:24,760
No…

553
00:39:26,120 --> 00:39:27,200
It's not like that.

554
00:39:28,320 --> 00:39:29,440
It's not like that.

555
00:39:32,840 --> 00:39:34,920
Aren't you my brother's lackey?

556
00:39:36,080 --> 00:39:37,480
Why tell me this?

557
00:39:38,080 --> 00:39:39,080
That's right.

558
00:39:39,920 --> 00:39:41,960
I used to follow Qi Min,

559
00:39:42,960 --> 00:39:44,840
but it was for the legitimacy of the lineage.

560
00:39:46,040 --> 00:39:47,960
His nature is cruel.

561
00:39:48,040 --> 00:39:49,760
He is not fit to inherit the throne.

562
00:39:50,840 --> 00:39:52,120
I was forced

563
00:39:53,560 --> 00:39:54,800
to turn to the Marquis of Wu'an.

564
00:40:06,200 --> 00:40:07,720
Sui Yuanhuai…

565
00:40:08,640 --> 00:40:09,600
No…

566
00:40:10,280 --> 00:40:11,800
Qi Min.

567
00:40:12,400 --> 00:40:14,480
I will tear you apart.

568
00:40:15,000 --> 00:40:17,320
Avenge my father and mother!

569
00:40:20,760 --> 00:40:21,720
Young heir.

570
00:40:22,680 --> 00:40:23,800
I can set you free.

571
00:40:25,240 --> 00:40:26,200
Free me?

572
00:40:27,240 --> 00:40:28,120
Why?

573
00:40:28,200 --> 00:40:29,800
My mother, the nurse Lan,

574
00:40:30,880 --> 00:40:32,440
raised Qi Min for years

575
00:40:33,200 --> 00:40:34,640
and died by his hands.

576
00:40:36,800 --> 00:40:39,000
I'm just sorry I'm not strong enough.

577
00:40:39,080 --> 00:40:40,960
If you can eliminate Qi Min,

578
00:40:41,480 --> 00:40:43,800
we will take revenge.

579
00:40:51,760 --> 00:40:53,920
You're nothing more than a lackey.

580
00:40:58,160 --> 00:40:59,760
But if you set me free,

581
00:41:01,400 --> 00:41:03,360
I will give you whatever you want.

582
00:41:12,760 --> 00:41:14,640
Young heir, this way.

583
00:41:24,240 --> 00:41:27,280
Do you think he can find Qi Min?

584
00:41:29,760 --> 00:41:31,720
They have been brothers for many years.

585
00:41:32,240 --> 00:41:33,480
He will find a way.

586
00:41:34,840 --> 00:41:37,480
19TH DAY, 7TH MONTH
17TH YEAR OF ZHENGPING

587
00:41:49,080 --> 00:41:51,000
Sui Yuanqing escaped from prison.

588
00:41:52,040 --> 00:41:52,920
What?

589
00:41:57,280 --> 00:42:00,040
Take this to the post office.
Send it to the capital now. No delays.

590
00:42:00,120 --> 00:42:00,960
Yes sir.

591
00:42:15,960 --> 00:42:18,320
YAMEN

592
00:45:00,600 --> 00:45:03,680
NO ANIMALS WERE HARMED
IN THE PRODUCTION OF THIS EPISODE
