1
00:00:18,600 --> 00:00:19,600
Good stuff.

2
00:00:23,830 --> 00:00:24,600
Lord Cheng,

3
00:00:24,960 --> 00:00:26,550
what would you like to buy today?

4
00:00:26,550 --> 00:00:27,960
I just got a new batch of saddles.

5
00:00:27,960 --> 00:00:29,290
Shall I show them to you?

6
00:00:30,440 --> 00:00:32,100
What were you just looking at?

7
00:00:33,520 --> 00:00:34,030
Well...

8
00:00:39,240 --> 00:00:40,300
Nothing. Nothing.

9
00:00:40,600 --> 00:00:42,200
They are just ordinary ores.

10
00:00:42,470 --> 00:00:43,520
Nothing special.

11
00:00:43,750 --> 00:00:44,430
Lord Cheng,

12
00:00:44,430 --> 00:00:46,030
take a look at these saddles.

13
00:00:46,470 --> 00:00:47,530
They just arrived.

14
00:00:47,770 --> 00:00:48,900
How do you like them?

15
00:00:49,710 --> 00:00:50,790
They are all genuine leather.

16
00:00:50,790 --> 00:00:51,390
Look.

17
00:00:52,630 --> 00:00:54,240
Look, they are all new goods.

18
00:00:57,640 --> 00:00:58,440
Your Majesty.

19
00:00:59,320 --> 00:01:00,790
Due to tax reductions and exemptions,

20
00:01:00,790 --> 00:01:04,069
the army's supplies and soldiers' pay
have become insufficient.

21
00:01:04,069 --> 00:01:06,200
In addition, as the weather turns colder,

22
00:01:06,200 --> 00:01:08,789
we also need to prepare funds
for winter heating.

23
00:01:08,789 --> 00:01:09,850
If this continues,

24
00:01:10,150 --> 00:01:11,680
I'm afraid not only people,

25
00:01:12,200 --> 00:01:15,200
but also cattle and horses
may not survive the winter.

26
00:01:21,350 --> 00:01:22,840
Times are tough right now.

27
00:01:24,400 --> 00:01:26,640
Halve the cost of charcoal for heating.

28
00:01:27,510 --> 00:01:29,110
After surviving the winter,

29
00:01:29,280 --> 00:01:31,580
we'll have the soldiers
farm and herd in spring

30
00:01:31,580 --> 00:01:33,780
to increase grain and fodder supplies.

31
00:01:41,870 --> 00:01:42,670
Your Majesty.

32
00:01:54,870 --> 00:01:55,600
What is this?

33
00:01:56,479 --> 00:01:59,430
This kind of ore is currently circulating
in the markets of Great Yan.

34
00:01:59,430 --> 00:02:01,480
The common people
are using it as a form of currency.

35
00:02:01,480 --> 00:02:03,810
I heard Ximeng has discovered black gold.

36
00:02:04,310 --> 00:02:06,370
I didn't expect
that it has reached Great Yan.

37
00:02:06,370 --> 00:02:08,530
It seems the output is astonishing.

38
00:02:08,710 --> 00:02:11,570
Moreover, Ximeng has risen rapidly
in recent times

39
00:02:11,580 --> 00:02:12,970
and introduced many new policies.

40
00:02:12,970 --> 00:02:13,560
I suspect

41
00:02:14,120 --> 00:02:15,920
it is related to this black gold.

42
00:03:38,420 --> 00:03:43,829
[REBIRTH]

43
00:03:44,300 --> 00:03:46,820
[Episode 29]

44
00:03:49,030 --> 00:03:49,829
Young Master,

45
00:03:50,000 --> 00:03:51,150
over the past few days,
there have indeed been

46
00:03:51,150 --> 00:03:53,750
some people from Great Yong in Ximengcheng
whose movements are suspicious.

47
00:03:53,750 --> 00:03:55,030
Lord Zhuge said in his letter

48
00:03:55,030 --> 00:03:57,079
that he will arrive in Ximengcheng
in 3 days to meet you.

49
00:03:57,079 --> 00:03:58,280
Is it possible

50
00:03:58,510 --> 00:04:01,910
that people from Qingshan Manor
are already in Ximengcheng?

51
00:04:02,280 --> 00:04:03,870
Qingshan Manor inherently carries out

52
00:04:03,870 --> 00:04:06,150
assassinations and investigations
for the royal family.

53
00:04:06,150 --> 00:04:08,710
They have strongholds
in both Great Yan and Biantang.

54
00:04:08,710 --> 00:04:10,470
Since my grandfather could find me here

55
00:04:10,470 --> 00:04:11,870
and send a secret letter,

56
00:04:11,910 --> 00:04:13,400
it means in Ximengcheng,

57
00:04:13,710 --> 00:04:15,680
there must be strongholds
of Qingshan Manor.

58
00:04:15,680 --> 00:04:16,430
Young Master,

59
00:04:16,430 --> 00:04:17,380
then what should we...

60
00:04:17,380 --> 00:04:18,220
Don't worry.

61
00:04:18,510 --> 00:04:20,269
Since grandfather is coming to see me,

62
00:04:20,269 --> 00:04:22,240
he'll make sure I can find him.

63
00:05:00,070 --> 00:05:00,870
Young Master.

64
00:05:05,000 --> 00:05:06,400
I hope you have been well.

65
00:05:08,830 --> 00:05:09,690
I did not expect

66
00:05:10,430 --> 00:05:12,690
that even Ximeng, a land without a ruler,

67
00:05:13,000 --> 00:05:15,390
is still within the reach
of Qingshan Manor's eyes and ears.

68
00:05:15,390 --> 00:05:18,190
There's much you don't know.

69
00:05:24,320 --> 00:05:27,430
[Zhuge Muqing, Chief of Qingshan Manor]

70
00:05:30,680 --> 00:05:31,480
Grandfather?

71
00:05:32,270 --> 00:05:34,600
I just lost my ability
to use martial arts.

72
00:05:35,070 --> 00:05:37,430
I won't die anytime soon.

73
00:05:38,190 --> 00:05:38,950
Why?

74
00:05:40,240 --> 00:05:41,570
What exactly happened?

75
00:05:41,680 --> 00:05:42,730
It was His Majesty.

76
00:05:42,730 --> 00:05:44,120
[Zhan Fu, Spy of Qingshan Manor]

77
00:05:42,930 --> 00:05:44,060
He forced the Master

78
00:05:44,680 --> 00:05:47,540
to take poison
that destroyed all his martial arts.

79
00:05:51,830 --> 00:05:52,960
It was because of me?

80
00:05:53,390 --> 00:05:54,000
Yes,

81
00:05:54,680 --> 00:05:55,600
and no.

82
00:05:56,240 --> 00:05:57,940
The Emperor relies heavily
on Qingshan Manor,

83
00:05:57,940 --> 00:05:59,500
but he also fears it.

84
00:05:59,530 --> 00:06:01,000
With the defeat at Meilin Pass,

85
00:06:01,000 --> 00:06:03,830
he blamed our Zhuge family.

86
00:06:04,560 --> 00:06:06,360
Do you think that clumsy corpse

87
00:06:06,360 --> 00:06:07,870
could fool Yan Xun

88
00:06:07,870 --> 00:06:09,870
and Qingshan Manor?

89
00:06:09,870 --> 00:06:12,000
You couldn't even fool Qingshan Manor.

90
00:06:12,000 --> 00:06:13,310
How could you fool the Muhe family,

91
00:06:13,310 --> 00:06:14,430
or those wolves and tigers

92
00:06:14,430 --> 00:06:17,510
waiting to tear our Zhuge family apart?

93
00:06:17,680 --> 00:06:19,360
To avoid revealing any flaws,

94
00:06:19,510 --> 00:06:21,270
we whipped the corpse

95
00:06:21,510 --> 00:06:23,270
and threw it into a mass grave

96
00:06:23,830 --> 00:06:25,620
to be torn apart by wild wolves.

97
00:06:25,750 --> 00:06:26,870
But even so,

98
00:06:28,190 --> 00:06:30,450
His Majesty wouldn't easily believe it.

99
00:06:30,600 --> 00:06:33,390
So you had to use the excuse
of apologizing

100
00:06:33,800 --> 00:06:35,460
and destroy your martial arts

101
00:06:35,830 --> 00:06:37,480
to quell his suspicions.

102
00:06:38,270 --> 00:06:39,630
Not only that.

103
00:06:40,750 --> 00:06:42,360
The Muhe family advised His Majesty

104
00:06:42,360 --> 00:06:44,510
that it was your infiltration
into Great Yan

105
00:06:44,510 --> 00:06:47,630
that alerted the enemy
and delayed the military operation,

106
00:06:47,630 --> 00:06:49,890
causing the great defeat at Meilin Pass.

107
00:06:50,630 --> 00:06:52,560
Half of the spies of Qingshan Manor

108
00:06:53,120 --> 00:06:55,190
were executed.

109
00:07:01,390 --> 00:07:02,190
Grandfather.

110
00:07:04,240 --> 00:07:05,190
It was my fault.

111
00:07:05,630 --> 00:07:06,240
No.

112
00:07:07,310 --> 00:07:08,870
It was the Muhe family.

113
00:07:10,240 --> 00:07:11,830
They have long been trying to replace

114
00:07:11,830 --> 00:07:13,390
Qingshan Manor.

115
00:07:13,830 --> 00:07:16,270
The defeat at Meilin Pass
was just an excuse.

116
00:07:16,270 --> 00:07:17,190
So, Yue,

117
00:07:17,560 --> 00:07:18,750
that's why

118
00:07:19,870 --> 00:07:22,240
I came to Ximeng in person
to take you back.

119
00:07:23,040 --> 00:07:26,480
You are now King Ximeng.

120
00:07:27,000 --> 00:07:29,950
By submitting to Great Yong
under this identity,

121
00:07:30,720 --> 00:07:32,360
you will become a great asset

122
00:07:32,360 --> 00:07:33,750
to our Zhuge family.

123
00:07:34,240 --> 00:07:36,240
The Muhe family's wishful thinking

124
00:07:37,120 --> 00:07:38,560
will come to nothing.

125
00:08:02,240 --> 00:08:03,040
Grandfather.

126
00:08:03,160 --> 00:08:03,830
Yue.

127
00:08:04,750 --> 00:08:05,800
I have failed you.

128
00:08:06,980 --> 00:08:08,710
I have failed your upbringing.

129
00:08:09,040 --> 00:08:10,170
But I've decided...

130
00:08:11,040 --> 00:08:12,440
to leave Qingshan Manor.

131
00:08:13,680 --> 00:08:15,010
Please forget about me.

132
00:08:16,930 --> 00:08:18,390
Just pretend I really died

133
00:08:20,160 --> 00:08:21,510
in the frozen lake.

134
00:08:22,510 --> 00:08:23,120
Yue,

135
00:08:24,750 --> 00:08:26,610
can you really give up everything

136
00:08:27,770 --> 00:08:29,980
and leave with that slave girl?

137
00:08:30,600 --> 00:08:32,000
Where can you go and hide?

138
00:08:32,789 --> 00:08:33,870
In Ximeng?

139
00:08:35,030 --> 00:08:37,000
Or at the ends of the earth?

140
00:08:37,510 --> 00:08:39,169
Qingshan Manor and Great Yong

141
00:08:39,610 --> 00:08:41,570
will find you eventually.

142
00:08:50,550 --> 00:08:51,200
Yue.

143
00:08:55,000 --> 00:08:56,240
You can find me,

144
00:08:57,510 --> 00:08:58,790
but you can't take me away.

145
00:08:58,790 --> 00:08:59,630
This...

146
00:09:00,840 --> 00:09:03,200
is the grandson I raised since childhood.

147
00:09:03,560 --> 00:09:04,830
Now you have

148
00:09:06,230 --> 00:09:08,320
the power to threaten me.

149
00:09:11,390 --> 00:09:12,720
But does that Chu Qiao

150
00:09:13,190 --> 00:09:14,790
know who personally

151
00:09:15,550 --> 00:09:17,390
sent Yan Shicheng's family

152
00:09:18,000 --> 00:09:19,720
to Jiuyou Platform back then?

153
00:09:20,910 --> 00:09:21,600
Back then,

154
00:09:22,790 --> 00:09:24,150
I had no choice.

155
00:09:25,030 --> 00:09:26,240
Even if she knows,

156
00:09:27,870 --> 00:09:29,030
she will forgive me.

157
00:09:29,510 --> 00:09:30,320
Even if

158
00:09:30,910 --> 00:09:33,240
you can explain the Yan Shicheng case,

159
00:09:34,750 --> 00:09:35,480
can you

160
00:09:36,480 --> 00:09:38,630
explain all the dirty deeds

161
00:09:39,080 --> 00:09:41,000
committed by Qingshan Manor?

162
00:09:41,280 --> 00:09:43,870
Qingshan Manor works for His Majesty.

163
00:09:43,890 --> 00:09:45,850
How many people have we massacred?

164
00:09:47,840 --> 00:09:49,960
Although you didn't kill them yourself,

165
00:09:49,960 --> 00:09:51,960
you are the Chief of Qingshan Manor.

166
00:09:52,870 --> 00:09:55,080
Can you absolve yourself?

167
00:09:58,240 --> 00:09:58,840
Yue,

168
00:10:00,390 --> 00:10:02,590
once you are a member of Qingshan Manor,

169
00:10:04,270 --> 00:10:05,790
you always will be.

170
00:10:11,790 --> 00:10:13,440
I am like this,

171
00:10:15,550 --> 00:10:17,270
and so are you.

172
00:10:19,790 --> 00:10:20,600
This...

173
00:10:22,910 --> 00:10:23,910
is our fate.

174
00:10:55,480 --> 00:10:56,410
What are these?

175
00:10:58,030 --> 00:10:59,750
Didn't we spread the word earlier

176
00:10:59,750 --> 00:11:01,510
that the Queen
loved crabapples and sand dates,

177
00:11:01,510 --> 00:11:03,000
and that King Ximeng
would pay a high price for them?

178
00:11:03,000 --> 00:11:03,910
This led everyone

179
00:11:03,910 --> 00:11:05,030
to plant them.

180
00:11:05,150 --> 00:11:06,630
The people who planted these fruits

181
00:11:06,630 --> 00:11:09,360
have rushed to deliver them
to the palace for you.

182
00:11:12,550 --> 00:11:14,960
That's because Ximeng's climate

183
00:11:15,120 --> 00:11:17,320
is suitable for planting these fruits.

184
00:11:18,790 --> 00:11:19,750
And what is this?

185
00:11:28,720 --> 00:11:29,910
This is a gift from the people of Ximeng

186
00:11:29,910 --> 00:11:32,600
to King Ximeng and Queen Ximeng.

187
00:11:32,790 --> 00:11:33,630
They say

188
00:11:33,660 --> 00:11:36,920
King Ximeng, without his mask,
is exceptionally handsome

189
00:11:37,240 --> 00:11:39,480
and a perfect match

190
00:11:39,670 --> 00:11:41,070
for the beautiful Queen.

191
00:11:43,630 --> 00:11:44,510
I think

192
00:11:44,960 --> 00:11:45,750
Ximeng's...

193
00:11:57,830 --> 00:11:58,400
Stop!

194
00:11:59,120 --> 00:12:00,270
This is King Ximeng's Palace!

195
00:12:00,270 --> 00:12:02,130
No entering without permission!

196
00:12:07,480 --> 00:12:09,880
I am the sister of Queen Ximeng.

197
00:12:13,970 --> 00:12:16,510
[Jing Xiaoba]

198
00:12:17,270 --> 00:12:17,910
My Lord.

199
00:12:19,240 --> 00:12:20,960
A woman outside is asking for an audience.

200
00:12:20,960 --> 00:12:22,320
She was stopped by the guards.

201
00:12:22,320 --> 00:12:24,120
She says she is the Queen's sister,

202
00:12:24,120 --> 00:12:25,580
whose name is Jing Xiaoba.

203
00:12:25,910 --> 00:12:27,720
Say that again. What is her name?

204
00:12:29,080 --> 00:12:30,080
Xiaoba...

205
00:12:30,320 --> 00:12:32,550
Jing... Xiaoba?

206
00:12:46,960 --> 00:12:47,600
Xiaoba!

207
00:13:09,600 --> 00:13:12,440
Qing...

208
00:13:12,440 --> 00:13:13,550
She seems to have stopped breathing.

209
00:13:13,550 --> 00:13:14,080
Qing?

210
00:13:14,540 --> 00:13:15,240
What's wrong with you?

211
00:13:15,240 --> 00:13:16,510
Qing is dead.

212
00:13:24,480 --> 00:13:25,080
Sixth Sister!

213
00:13:25,080 --> 00:13:25,750
Xiaoba!

214
00:13:27,200 --> 00:13:28,630
What are you all waiting for?

215
00:13:28,630 --> 00:13:29,320
Let's go!

216
00:13:29,960 --> 00:13:30,600
Hurry!

217
00:13:30,790 --> 00:13:31,510
Go!

218
00:13:32,360 --> 00:13:33,160
Sixth Sister,

219
00:13:33,600 --> 00:13:34,790
Qing is...

220
00:13:36,440 --> 00:13:37,000
Go!

221
00:13:38,360 --> 00:13:39,550
Hurry, keep up!

222
00:13:44,270 --> 00:13:44,910
Xiaoba!

223
00:13:46,670 --> 00:13:47,440
Get down!

224
00:13:51,200 --> 00:13:52,670
Hurry! Don't let them escape!

225
00:13:52,670 --> 00:13:53,240
Run!

226
00:14:02,480 --> 00:14:03,480
Well, well, well.

227
00:14:03,790 --> 00:14:06,250
You lowly slaves
are really tired of living.

228
00:14:07,080 --> 00:14:08,960
Take them back
and cripple their hands and feet.

229
00:14:08,960 --> 00:14:12,320
Serving the Old Master
doesn't require hands and feet anyway.

230
00:14:12,320 --> 00:14:13,120
Take them down!

231
00:14:13,120 --> 00:14:13,750
Yes!

232
00:14:24,250 --> 00:14:25,510
You really are Xiaoba.

233
00:14:41,920 --> 00:14:43,520
Ever since we got separated,

234
00:14:44,360 --> 00:14:46,420
I've been sending people to find you.

235
00:14:46,550 --> 00:14:47,880
I finally see you today.

236
00:14:48,840 --> 00:14:50,040
It's just wonderful.

237
00:14:51,390 --> 00:14:52,190
Sixth Sister.

238
00:14:53,630 --> 00:14:54,600
Long time no see.

239
00:14:56,550 --> 00:14:57,510
Long time no see.

240
00:14:58,420 --> 00:14:59,900
It's so good to see you.

241
00:15:00,360 --> 00:15:00,960
Let's go.

242
00:15:01,320 --> 00:15:02,980
I'll take you into the palace.

243
00:15:12,320 --> 00:15:12,750
Xiaoba.

244
00:15:12,750 --> 00:15:13,440
Your Majesty.

245
00:15:13,440 --> 00:15:14,870
You must be tired

246
00:15:14,870 --> 00:15:15,720
after traveling so far to get here.

247
00:15:15,720 --> 00:15:17,200
Take a hot bath later

248
00:15:17,280 --> 00:15:19,010
and change into clean clothes.

249
00:15:19,710 --> 00:15:20,280
Let's go.

250
00:15:24,150 --> 00:15:25,120
Who is this?

251
00:15:51,510 --> 00:15:53,030
This is the first time

252
00:15:53,440 --> 00:15:55,700
I've seen such a luxurious bathing pool.

253
00:15:55,960 --> 00:15:56,760
Sixth Sister,

254
00:15:57,510 --> 00:15:59,240
you are living such a good life.

255
00:15:59,720 --> 00:16:00,630
Unlike me,

256
00:16:01,550 --> 00:16:03,510
who is as poor as a beggar.

257
00:16:05,870 --> 00:16:09,360
I was separated from you
when I fled from Great Yong to Great Yan.

258
00:16:09,360 --> 00:16:11,320
After I settled down in Great Yan,

259
00:16:11,320 --> 00:16:12,720
I sent people to find you.

260
00:16:12,870 --> 00:16:13,930
But unexpectedly,

261
00:16:14,200 --> 00:16:15,750
before you returned,

262
00:16:15,870 --> 00:16:16,960
I had an accident

263
00:16:17,150 --> 00:16:18,680
and fell into a frozen lake.

264
00:16:19,360 --> 00:16:20,080
I know.

265
00:16:21,230 --> 00:16:24,160
The Universal Harmony Guild
brought me to Great Yan.

266
00:16:25,030 --> 00:16:26,630
Miss Zhong once took me in.

267
00:16:27,750 --> 00:16:29,680
Later, something happened to her,

268
00:16:30,870 --> 00:16:32,530
leaving me with nowhere to go.

269
00:16:32,960 --> 00:16:34,960
I could only wander around Great Yan

270
00:16:35,240 --> 00:16:36,630
in disguise.

271
00:16:37,550 --> 00:16:38,200
Xiaoba,

272
00:16:39,790 --> 00:16:41,390
you must have suffered a lot.

273
00:16:43,320 --> 00:16:44,720
After I went to Biantang,

274
00:16:45,080 --> 00:16:47,010
I had Minglu keep asking about you,

275
00:16:47,150 --> 00:16:49,350
but we couldn't find your whereabouts.

276
00:16:49,390 --> 00:16:51,390
Great Yan has been constantly at war

277
00:16:51,550 --> 00:16:52,720
and in chaos.

278
00:16:53,670 --> 00:16:54,870
You were in Biantang,

279
00:16:55,550 --> 00:16:57,480
so naturally you couldn't find me.

280
00:16:57,910 --> 00:16:58,710
Fortunately,

281
00:16:59,080 --> 00:17:00,740
we sisters finally reunited.

282
00:17:01,150 --> 00:17:03,210
This is truly a blessing from Heaven.

283
00:17:25,589 --> 00:17:27,510
My beautiful sister is back.

284
00:17:28,440 --> 00:17:29,640
These are my clothes.

285
00:17:29,780 --> 00:17:32,020
I will prepare new ones for you later.

286
00:17:35,680 --> 00:17:36,480
Sixth Sister,

287
00:17:36,960 --> 00:17:38,070
I'm a little hungry.

288
00:17:38,070 --> 00:17:39,590
Can you get me some food?

289
00:17:40,510 --> 00:17:41,070
Okay.

290
00:17:41,440 --> 00:17:42,770
I will go arrange it now.

291
00:18:08,000 --> 00:18:08,640
Xing.

292
00:18:23,000 --> 00:18:23,750
Guards!

293
00:18:24,200 --> 00:18:25,000
Help!

294
00:18:25,070 --> 00:18:25,960
Help!

295
00:18:29,160 --> 00:18:30,160
Sixth Sister!

296
00:18:31,640 --> 00:18:32,430
Sixth Sister!

297
00:18:32,430 --> 00:18:34,300
-Zhuge Yue wanted to harass me.
-Xiaoba!

298
00:18:34,300 --> 00:18:35,740
Kill him for me!

299
00:18:41,720 --> 00:18:43,830
Zhuge Yue shouldn't be
such a despicable person.

300
00:18:43,830 --> 00:18:45,200
Why are you doing this?

301
00:18:48,640 --> 00:18:49,830
I hate him.

302
00:18:54,790 --> 00:18:55,920
I want him dead!

303
00:18:56,920 --> 00:18:57,830
Eldest Sister,

304
00:18:58,550 --> 00:18:59,480
Fifth Brother—

305
00:19:00,500 --> 00:19:01,960
all my family

306
00:19:02,500 --> 00:19:04,260
died in Qingshan Manor.

307
00:19:04,920 --> 00:19:07,110
Why can Zhuge Yue live so well?

308
00:19:07,720 --> 00:19:08,750
Why?

309
00:19:10,160 --> 00:19:10,790
Xiaoba,

310
00:19:11,550 --> 00:19:13,480
Zhuge Yue has left Qingshan Manor.

311
00:19:13,750 --> 00:19:14,920
But the Qingshan Manor under his command

312
00:19:14,920 --> 00:19:16,680
killed all my family.

313
00:19:17,840 --> 00:19:19,160
Can simply leaving

314
00:19:19,200 --> 00:19:21,960
wipe off all the blood debts?

315
00:19:22,030 --> 00:19:22,800
Xiaoba!

316
00:19:23,310 --> 00:19:24,240
Let me explain.

317
00:19:24,830 --> 00:19:27,000
Brother Linxi's death
was a misunderstanding.

318
00:19:27,000 --> 00:19:28,290
Zhuge Yue had no choice.

319
00:19:28,290 --> 00:19:29,130
Jing Xiaoliu!

320
00:19:29,680 --> 00:19:31,920
How did Brother Linxi treat you back then?

321
00:19:31,920 --> 00:19:33,350
If you really see us as family,

322
00:19:33,350 --> 00:19:34,790
you should kill Zhuge Yue

323
00:19:34,790 --> 00:19:36,400
to avenge Linxi, who's dead!

324
00:19:36,480 --> 00:19:37,640
Why can't you do it?

325
00:19:43,880 --> 00:19:45,740
Because you are not Jing Xiaoliu.

326
00:19:46,310 --> 00:19:47,440
You are Chu Qiao,

327
00:19:48,240 --> 00:19:49,640
Queen Ximeng.

328
00:19:53,680 --> 00:19:55,640
You are not my real sister.

329
00:19:56,550 --> 00:19:57,960
My real sister

330
00:19:59,030 --> 00:20:00,960
already died in Qingshan Manor.

331
00:20:02,240 --> 00:20:05,830
All of my family died in Qingshan Manor.

332
00:20:13,880 --> 00:20:15,030
I came here this time

333
00:20:16,480 --> 00:20:18,030
just to use you

334
00:20:19,070 --> 00:20:20,680
to get close to Zhuge Yue

335
00:20:22,270 --> 00:20:24,350
and avenge my family.

336
00:20:25,270 --> 00:20:26,550
Since I've failed,

337
00:20:27,400 --> 00:20:28,930
it doesn't matter anymore.

338
00:20:34,110 --> 00:20:35,440
Just kill me.

339
00:20:36,830 --> 00:20:38,240
That way, our Jing family

340
00:20:39,590 --> 00:20:42,070
can reunite in the underworld.

341
00:20:54,550 --> 00:20:55,200
Xiaoba,

342
00:20:55,960 --> 00:20:57,780
if you don't want to accept me
as your sister,

343
00:20:57,780 --> 00:20:58,950
I won't force you.

344
00:21:04,680 --> 00:21:05,540
Take this horse

345
00:21:06,240 --> 00:21:07,000
with you.

346
00:21:08,090 --> 00:21:09,350
There is a bundle on it,

347
00:21:09,920 --> 00:21:12,120
which contains some rations and money.

348
00:21:12,400 --> 00:21:14,000
If you encounter any difficulties
in the future,

349
00:21:14,000 --> 00:21:15,600
you can come find me anytime.

350
00:22:15,550 --> 00:22:18,200
I got this scar
while attacking Li'ancheng.

351
00:22:18,880 --> 00:22:20,480
It has already scabbed over.

352
00:22:20,550 --> 00:22:22,210
No need for medicine anymore.

353
00:22:30,270 --> 00:22:31,550
This scar is the same.

354
00:22:32,190 --> 00:22:33,790
It has healed a long time ago.

355
00:22:38,680 --> 00:22:40,920
Then shouldn't the wound
you got at Qingshan Manor

356
00:22:40,920 --> 00:22:42,400
be healed by now?

357
00:22:47,320 --> 00:22:48,270
Let bygones

358
00:22:49,070 --> 00:22:50,200
be bygones.

359
00:24:25,000 --> 00:24:26,400
Why are you following me?

360
00:24:31,240 --> 00:24:32,570
You regret letting me go

361
00:24:32,640 --> 00:24:34,300
and want to kill me now, right?

362
00:24:35,720 --> 00:24:36,980
The dagger in your hand

363
00:24:37,920 --> 00:24:40,780
is made of glazed iron
exclusive to Qingshan Manor.

364
00:24:41,880 --> 00:24:43,830
Its poison is lethal upon drawing blood.

365
00:24:43,830 --> 00:24:44,400
I...

366
00:24:45,160 --> 00:24:48,020
I didn't know
this was a dagger from Qingshan Manor.

367
00:24:49,720 --> 00:24:50,880
Can you tell me

368
00:24:52,440 --> 00:24:53,750
who gave it to you?

369
00:24:55,240 --> 00:24:56,070
Before,

370
00:24:56,830 --> 00:24:58,090
I was wandering around

371
00:24:58,720 --> 00:25:00,320
and almost starved to death.

372
00:25:01,030 --> 00:25:02,790
A masked swordsman saved me.

373
00:25:03,160 --> 00:25:04,880
He told me he was also a slave,

374
00:25:05,200 --> 00:25:07,640
and his family
was killed by Qingshan Manor as well,

375
00:25:07,640 --> 00:25:10,790
so he helped me find you for revenge.

376
00:25:24,310 --> 00:25:25,110
Grandfather?

377
00:25:27,070 --> 00:25:27,830
Yue,

378
00:25:28,400 --> 00:25:31,070
I knew you would find out
and follow her here.

379
00:25:31,200 --> 00:25:31,960
Yes.

380
00:25:32,300 --> 00:25:35,700
I was the one who arranged for Jing Xiaoba
to assassinate you.

381
00:25:37,030 --> 00:25:37,960
It was you?

382
00:25:41,070 --> 00:25:42,240
You used me?

383
00:25:43,270 --> 00:25:44,400
I will kill you!

384
00:25:48,160 --> 00:25:50,200
If you want to save this girl,

385
00:25:51,550 --> 00:25:53,550
come back to Qingshan Manor with me.

386
00:25:55,790 --> 00:25:56,990
She wanted to kill me,

387
00:25:57,830 --> 00:26:00,090
and you're using her life to threaten me?

388
00:26:00,440 --> 00:26:01,640
Isn't it ridiculous?

389
00:26:01,750 --> 00:26:03,240
She is Chu Qiao's sister.

390
00:26:03,350 --> 00:26:04,510
If she loses her life

391
00:26:05,130 --> 00:26:06,330
because of you,

392
00:26:06,360 --> 00:26:08,200
will Chu Qiao forgive you?

393
00:26:08,220 --> 00:26:10,150
I recognized this dagger long ago.

394
00:26:11,070 --> 00:26:12,800
But before I followed her here,

395
00:26:12,830 --> 00:26:14,230
I still held onto the hope

396
00:26:15,000 --> 00:26:16,590
that it wasn't you.

397
00:26:17,070 --> 00:26:17,930
I didn't expect

398
00:26:19,790 --> 00:26:21,070
I was too naive.

399
00:26:21,680 --> 00:26:23,000
I'm using this girl

400
00:26:23,720 --> 00:26:25,000
just to remind you

401
00:26:25,400 --> 00:26:27,660
that you are the Chief of Qingshan Manor.

402
00:26:28,200 --> 00:26:30,600
You can never wash the blood
off your hands.

403
00:26:31,010 --> 00:26:32,830
Jing Xiaoba is not the only means I have.

404
00:26:32,830 --> 00:26:34,310
I have other ways

405
00:26:34,400 --> 00:26:35,880
to uncover the past

406
00:26:36,380 --> 00:26:38,250
and make Chu Qiao see clearly

407
00:26:38,510 --> 00:26:39,960
what you have done

408
00:26:39,960 --> 00:26:41,290
and what Qingshan Manor

409
00:26:42,030 --> 00:26:43,480
has done before.

410
00:26:43,960 --> 00:26:45,960
Why do you have to force me like this?

411
00:26:48,350 --> 00:26:49,110
Yue,

412
00:26:50,070 --> 00:26:52,330
among the 3 branches of the Zhuge family,

413
00:26:52,640 --> 00:26:55,350
you are the only one I carefully raised.

414
00:26:55,550 --> 00:26:57,790
You are the only hope for Qingshan Manor

415
00:26:57,960 --> 00:27:00,350
and the Zhuge family to survive.

416
00:27:01,030 --> 00:27:03,200
I won't let you leave Qingshan Manor.

417
00:27:03,200 --> 00:27:04,000
Grandfather,

418
00:27:05,550 --> 00:27:06,310
am I...

419
00:27:07,070 --> 00:27:09,440
just a piece of your work?

420
00:27:10,680 --> 00:27:12,010
You should know clearly

421
00:27:12,960 --> 00:27:15,200
that once you are a member
of Qingshan Manor,

422
00:27:15,200 --> 00:27:17,240
you can never leave Qingshan Manor.

423
00:27:17,350 --> 00:27:18,350
Not just you,

424
00:27:18,790 --> 00:27:19,750
but also me,

425
00:27:20,070 --> 00:27:22,160
and every spy in Qingshan Manor.

426
00:27:22,160 --> 00:27:23,690
It is the same for everyone.

427
00:27:24,960 --> 00:27:26,880
I can give you 5 days.

428
00:27:27,440 --> 00:27:28,370
Five days later,

429
00:27:28,510 --> 00:27:31,490
I will be waiting for you
at the teahouse with Jing Xiaoba.

430
00:27:31,490 --> 00:27:32,690
What if I don't go?

431
00:27:33,000 --> 00:27:34,640
If you insist on having your own way,

432
00:27:34,640 --> 00:27:36,840
not only will Jing Xiaoba lose her life—

433
00:27:37,480 --> 00:27:38,880
you should know the rules.

434
00:27:38,880 --> 00:27:41,810
Qingshan Manor will definitely appoint
a new Chief.

435
00:27:41,850 --> 00:27:43,480
If this Chief is not you,

436
00:27:43,880 --> 00:27:47,030
your loyal Moon Guards
will all be executed,

437
00:27:47,440 --> 00:27:49,300
and their families will also die.

438
00:27:49,640 --> 00:27:52,750
They are all people
who have risked their lives for you.

439
00:27:53,310 --> 00:27:54,680
Can you really bear

440
00:27:54,680 --> 00:27:56,750
to watch them getting killed

441
00:27:58,400 --> 00:28:00,310
one by one?

442
00:28:10,000 --> 00:28:11,460
Broad beans, have a taste.

443
00:28:12,640 --> 00:28:14,000
Please come in, sir.

444
00:28:15,070 --> 00:28:15,640
Sir!

445
00:28:16,590 --> 00:28:17,250
A pot of tea.

446
00:28:17,830 --> 00:28:18,640
Coming.

447
00:28:21,000 --> 00:28:21,800
Young Master,

448
00:28:22,270 --> 00:28:24,600
this is the news we brought from Biantang.

449
00:28:25,110 --> 00:28:26,770
Sir, your business is not bad.

450
00:28:27,440 --> 00:28:29,680
It's mainly because the new policy
is so good.

451
00:28:29,680 --> 00:28:31,920
In the past, there was always
catching and killing,

452
00:28:29,930 --> 00:28:30,990
[Your Majesty, Chu Qiao is no longer
in Biantang territory.]

453
00:28:30,990 --> 00:28:32,050
[We have confirmed that she is now
in Ximeng with Zhuge Yue.]

454
00:28:32,000 --> 00:28:33,240
which made people panic.

455
00:28:33,240 --> 00:28:34,960
Business around here wasn't easy.

456
00:28:34,960 --> 00:28:37,760
You must have made a fortune
these past few months.

457
00:28:37,950 --> 00:28:39,000
I've been lucky.

458
00:28:39,030 --> 00:28:41,720
Not only are there merchant caravans
coming to Ximeng for business,

459
00:28:41,720 --> 00:28:43,830
but many people
from Great Yong and Great Yan

460
00:28:43,830 --> 00:28:46,030
have also moved here with them.

461
00:28:46,030 --> 00:28:47,070
Your business

462
00:28:47,070 --> 00:28:48,480
will definitely keep booming.

463
00:28:48,480 --> 00:28:49,880
Thank you. I sure hope so.

464
00:28:50,590 --> 00:28:51,270
Enjoy.

465
00:28:53,870 --> 00:28:54,590
Here, sir.

466
00:28:54,640 --> 00:28:55,770
Your tea and snacks.

467
00:28:58,590 --> 00:28:59,310
Sir,

468
00:28:59,400 --> 00:29:01,330
you are from Great Yan, aren't you?

469
00:29:04,110 --> 00:29:04,790
Yes.

470
00:29:05,550 --> 00:29:07,070
We are merchants from Great Yan.

471
00:29:07,070 --> 00:29:08,470
We want to buy some herbs.

472
00:29:08,750 --> 00:29:09,440
Sir,

473
00:29:10,150 --> 00:29:11,300
how did you know?

474
00:29:11,790 --> 00:29:13,600
My stall might be small,

475
00:29:13,640 --> 00:29:14,830
but ever since our King Ximeng

476
00:29:14,830 --> 00:29:16,830
issued the trade decree,

477
00:29:16,830 --> 00:29:19,400
I've seen plenty of merchant caravans.

478
00:29:19,720 --> 00:29:21,350
From your clothes and accent,

479
00:29:21,350 --> 00:29:22,880
I could guess roughly.

480
00:29:27,310 --> 00:29:28,000
Sir,

481
00:29:28,440 --> 00:29:29,770
you dropped something.

482
00:29:31,510 --> 00:29:32,110
Thank you.

483
00:29:34,350 --> 00:29:35,030
Sir,

484
00:29:35,350 --> 00:29:38,000
the woman in this portrait
is very beautiful.

485
00:29:38,230 --> 00:29:39,890
She looks a bit like our Queen.

486
00:29:42,590 --> 00:29:44,050
The woman in this portrait

487
00:29:45,960 --> 00:29:47,310
is the one I love.

488
00:29:49,030 --> 00:29:50,720
You are a lucky man, sir.

489
00:29:51,000 --> 00:29:52,080
Enjoy.

490
00:30:22,860 --> 00:30:23,580
Be careful.

491
00:30:24,170 --> 00:30:25,630
Thank you, General Cheng.

492
00:30:41,600 --> 00:30:42,270
Honey,

493
00:30:42,400 --> 00:30:44,330
I brought some fruit for you to try.

494
00:30:45,030 --> 00:30:46,290
You are so thoughtful.

495
00:30:47,510 --> 00:30:50,030
These are fresh apricots
and Xiangsuguo fruit.

496
00:30:50,030 --> 00:30:51,310
I picked them out especially.

497
00:30:51,310 --> 00:30:52,440
They are very sweet.

498
00:31:03,310 --> 00:31:04,370
Thank you, my dear.

499
00:31:09,000 --> 00:31:11,530
She doesn't look like
the one in the portrait.

500
00:31:18,640 --> 00:31:20,160
Here are the spy leaders

501
00:31:20,160 --> 00:31:22,440
of Qingshan Manor's 4 strongholds
in Ximeng.

502
00:31:22,440 --> 00:31:23,440
They're all here.

503
00:31:26,270 --> 00:31:27,200
I know

504
00:31:27,720 --> 00:31:29,030
you want to use them

505
00:31:29,240 --> 00:31:31,900
in exchange
for your freedom and Jing Xiaoba's.

506
00:31:32,070 --> 00:31:34,270
But you've overestimated their value.

507
00:31:34,440 --> 00:31:36,920
Qingshan Manor lacks anything but spies.

508
00:31:37,200 --> 00:31:38,270
A few deaths

509
00:31:39,310 --> 00:31:40,770
don't mean anything to us.

510
00:31:44,480 --> 00:31:46,140
Of course, it's not just them.

511
00:31:47,030 --> 00:31:48,160
As far as I know,

512
00:31:49,590 --> 00:31:51,640
Qingshan Manor has planted spies

513
00:31:52,110 --> 00:31:53,840
in both Biantang and Great Yan.

514
00:31:53,880 --> 00:31:56,510
Although I have left Qingshan Manor
for a long time,

515
00:31:56,510 --> 00:31:57,830
with the abilities I had

516
00:31:57,830 --> 00:31:59,240
when I was still in charge of it,

517
00:31:59,240 --> 00:32:00,350
within 10 days,

518
00:32:00,720 --> 00:32:03,200
I can uproot all these hidden sentries.

519
00:32:03,880 --> 00:32:04,680
By then,

520
00:32:04,960 --> 00:32:07,220
your years of hard work in Qingshan Manor

521
00:32:07,750 --> 00:32:09,480
will go down the drain.

522
00:32:11,720 --> 00:32:12,330
Master!

523
00:32:21,030 --> 00:32:21,960
Yue,

524
00:32:22,480 --> 00:32:25,790
actually, before I came to Ximeng,

525
00:32:27,510 --> 00:32:29,400
I already expected

526
00:32:30,510 --> 00:32:32,350
the result would be like this.

527
00:32:33,720 --> 00:32:36,110
I raised you since you were little.

528
00:32:36,270 --> 00:32:37,640
I know you best.

529
00:32:39,640 --> 00:32:41,200
Once you make a decision,

530
00:32:43,640 --> 00:32:45,310
you won't change it easily.

531
00:32:46,270 --> 00:32:52,200
But I just didn't want to admit defeat.

532
00:32:53,000 --> 00:32:54,750
I wanted to try again

533
00:33:00,240 --> 00:33:00,830
to see

534
00:33:02,440 --> 00:33:04,030
if I could keep you.

535
00:33:04,750 --> 00:33:07,200
I can't force you to do anything,

536
00:33:07,200 --> 00:33:09,550
nor can I make any decisions for you.

537
00:33:10,200 --> 00:33:12,640
If Qingshan Manor

538
00:33:13,200 --> 00:33:14,440
is destined to end

539
00:33:14,440 --> 00:33:16,830
in my hands,

540
00:33:18,590 --> 00:33:20,160
that is destiny.

541
00:33:20,720 --> 00:33:22,960
I can only watch helplessly

542
00:33:23,590 --> 00:33:26,000
as the Muhe family gets what they want.

543
00:33:29,680 --> 00:33:30,590
I...

544
00:33:31,750 --> 00:33:34,720
have one last thing to remind you.

545
00:33:35,270 --> 00:33:37,240
If Qingshan Manor can find you,

546
00:33:38,030 --> 00:33:40,200
anyone in Great Yong can do the same.

547
00:33:40,960 --> 00:33:45,480
As many people
are watching our Zhuge family,

548
00:33:45,790 --> 00:33:48,920
just as many are watching you,

549
00:33:49,400 --> 00:33:51,000
including His Majesty

550
00:33:51,270 --> 00:33:52,110
and

551
00:33:52,350 --> 00:33:55,110
those who want to ascend the throne
of Great Yong in the future.

552
00:33:55,110 --> 00:33:55,880
If you...

553
00:33:57,000 --> 00:33:58,750
want to leave Qingshan Manor

554
00:33:59,070 --> 00:34:01,070
and live according to your own will,

555
00:34:01,400 --> 00:34:02,350
you can only...

556
00:34:05,590 --> 00:34:07,400
rely on yourself.

557
00:34:21,230 --> 00:34:22,440
Yue.

558
00:34:23,960 --> 00:34:24,960
I...

559
00:34:26,360 --> 00:34:28,920
am already in my twilight years.

560
00:34:29,110 --> 00:34:30,440
I can only...

561
00:34:32,030 --> 00:34:33,190
do this much for you.

562
00:34:34,190 --> 00:34:34,800
You...

563
00:34:36,110 --> 00:34:38,320
take care of yourself.

564
00:34:45,550 --> 00:34:46,440
Zhuge Yue,

565
00:34:47,000 --> 00:34:48,710
don't think that because you saved me,

566
00:34:48,710 --> 00:34:50,770
what you have done can be written off.

567
00:34:51,000 --> 00:34:52,150
One day,

568
00:34:52,480 --> 00:34:54,679
I will eventually kill you for revenge.

569
00:35:07,440 --> 00:35:09,480
This Xiaoba is really ungrateful.

570
00:35:09,710 --> 00:35:11,440
And I even gave her a good horse.

571
00:36:13,030 --> 00:36:16,880
Congratulations to the King and Queen
of Ximeng on implementing the new policy.

572
00:36:16,880 --> 00:36:17,800
This seems

573
00:36:18,030 --> 00:36:19,420
to be some kind of sacrifice.

574
00:36:19,420 --> 00:36:21,860
Let Great Yong and Great Yan fight again!

575
00:36:22,110 --> 00:36:23,510
Let him kill Zhao Che!

576
00:36:23,800 --> 00:36:24,840
Everyone infected with the plague

577
00:36:24,840 --> 00:36:26,070
ends up with their entire body rotting.

578
00:36:26,070 --> 00:36:27,030
What's wrong with you?

579
00:36:27,030 --> 00:36:28,550
Chu, you belong to me,

580
00:36:29,400 --> 00:36:30,710
me alone.

581
00:36:31,280 --> 00:36:32,360
I never thought

582
00:36:32,710 --> 00:36:34,110
I would have a day like this with you.
