Chu Zhaonan... What a pity.

You have missed a very good opportunity.

Seven Swords

Episode 35 Seven Swords

Where is Yang Yunchong?

If he wants his child back,

tell him to meet me at Liuhe Tower.

There's no point... She is not here.

Where is my daughter?

Yang Yunchong.

Have you forgotten about your promise?

Kill Duo Geduo.

So you still remember?

Once you got to Hangzhou, you went looking for that woman again.

What else did you do?

This is between us.

Killing Duo Geduo has nothing to do with my daughter.

Don't drag her into this!

You're right it's between us.

If you don't want your daughter to die,

then do what you should do.

We have our plans. I cannot ruin it by taking action alone.

But don't worry.

Duo Geduo will be dead soon.

I will give you three days.

All right... But listen,

if anything happens to my daughter,

I will not forgive you.

What are you thinking about?

Hwazhao still has the seeds that we brought...

from the Martial Village.

I want to plant them by the riverside tomorrow with the children.

The Martial Village.

I still miss the Martial Village.

Good. Come. Come. Let's share out the seeds.

Look... These are the seeds from the village.

It smells good.

It smells good.

They aren't cooked yet. It can't smell nice if it's not cooked. Stupid.

Our village's seeds smell nice by nature.

You can ask Yuanyin if you don't believe me.

Right... It smells good.

Brother Yuanyin... If we plant the seeds here,

will this place become the Martial Village.

This place will not become the Martial Village.

I can promise you...

I will take you back to the Martial Village.

All right. All right.

Swordsman Chu.

Look.

You have sat here all day.

You haven't even sipped your tea.

Hey! - Yes.

Change the tea for Swordsman Chu.

Yes.

When will the prince see me?

In the past, it was difficult for him to see you.

Now, it's the other way around.

Interesting. Interesting.

Where is the prince?

You keep on asking me every day.

You should know by now...

that my answer is always the same.

Please.

The prince is very busy.

The prince is very busy.

Since I became an officer,

the prince has ignored me.

Is he...

really that busy?

That's right.

Swordsman Chu. Let me give you some advice.

A man should do his duties.

You are an officer now.

You are the leader of the Martial World.

You should try to achieve something to show the prince.

You shouldn't come here so often.

There is no point.

Even if the prince could see you,

it wouldn't look good.

You're right.

Thank you.

Don't mention it.

Since I became an officer,

the prince has ignored me.

First Brother...

I think something's amiss.

You must be very careful.

If things seem suspicious,

you should leave immediately.

It's difficult to leave now.

I pretended to surrender,

and Zhibang and you have vouched for me before the Red Spear Society.

If I don't kill Duo Geduo,

how can I face them?

Now, I can only try my best. There is no turning back.

As for Minghui, I will think of something.

First Brother...

Our enemies are powerful.

It's important to kill Duo Geduo.

I can forget about saving Minghui...

for a while.

Saving Minghui is also very important.

You cannot give up on a person...

because of loyalty.

Once a person...

has given up, there is no turning back.

In the desert,

Minghui promised me...

that she would leave with me.

But afterwards,

she suddenly changed her mind.

I think...

it's because she saw something.

It must be because of this.

One night in the desert,

I was drunk.

And Fei Hongjin...

I guess that it was because of this...

that she left me.

You... Why didn't you tell me?

Because Fei Hongjin never admitted to it.

I asked her before.

I said that if something had happened,

I was willing to take responsibility.

But when she heard that,

she became furious.

Of course.

Fei Hongjin wants you to love her.

Not be responsible to her.

When it comes to Fei Hongjin,

you seem to understand things better than I do.

So what?

When we were in the desert,

Fei Hongjin thought that I was a traitor. She wanted to kill me.

She put down her knife...

because of you.

Yes. I owe you a favour.

First Brother... Don't say that.

I am the first brother of Mount Heaven.

I should protect my brothers.

I just never thought that in order to kill Duo Geduo...

I would need you and Zhibang to vouch for me.

Even our swords are different now.

Before we left Mount Heaven,

I thought that the Dragon Sword was the best sword in the world.

I never thought...

it would be under the control of the Transience Sword.

Yunchong...

You've had better luck than I.

You fell in love with Nalan Xiuji's daughter.

Everyone understands you and pities you.

But me...

I pretended to surrender to try to kill Duo Geduo,

but everyone was against it.

First Brother... Don't drink anymore.

What else can I do?

Am I lucky?

The woman I love...

is about to marry my enemy.

Another woman...

has left with my child.

I left Mount Heaven to rescue people.

But before I could rescue anybody,

I found a world of troubles.

Maybe that is my luck.

Second Brother.

I can't sleep. Practise with me.

Second Brother...

Why are you so angry?

After you kill Duo Geduo...

we can go back to Mount Heaven,

then everything will be great.

I can't go back.

None of us can.

The Dragon Sword is not the most powerful.

Nor the Transience Sword.

Do you understand?

There are a lot of things...

that the swords cannot solve.

When we were on Mount Heaven,

First Brother made all the decisions for us.

We were very young then,

but I had feelings.

I always thought...

that I wouldn't have to make decisions.

First Brother was always there.

I could always listen to him.

Then later, I came to realise that...

I also depended on you.

You are the type of person,

who can make those around you feel safe.

But now I have come to understand that...

I cannot depend on others my whole life.

Sometimes, I'll have to make decisions on my own.

Just like when we were at Zhao Jiadao.

You were not there.

So I had to strengthen myself.

Protect myself, and protect others.

Although even now,

there are still things that I cannot do.

But...

I hope that when you are under pressure,

you can come and find me.

Swordsman Chu, why are you here again?

The prince is still...

Give this letter to the prince for me.

There is no such person as Little King Lu.

You have panicked needlessly.

The wedding is coming.

The princess is missing.

Be careful.

From Chu Zhaonan.

Zhang Chengbin. Send for Chu Zhaonan.

Officer Chu... Please wait.

Officer Chu. The prince wants to see you.

Please.

This way.

Officer Chu. What is it?

Where is the prince?

Just around the next corner.

The prince is waiting for you in his room.

Officer Chu. Please.

Officer Chu. Please.

Your Highness. Officer Chu is here.

Chengbin. Leave us.

Without my permission, no one is allowed to enter.

Yes.

Chu Zhaonan...

You say there is no Little King Lu?

Is that true?

You don't believe me?

You said that Minghui is missing. Is that true?

Of course it's true.

If you don't believe me,

you can go to visit the Nalan house.

All right.

Some time ago, you said that Niu Kulu had taken a woman away from you.

That was Minghui?

Nalan Minghui was taken away by thieves.

It was I who rescued her.

Afterwards, I sent her back to her house.

But Niu Kulu has taken her away.

If Minghui is missing,

Why wasn't I informed?

Your Highness. This wedding...

was appointed by the emperor's mother.

If the princess went missing before the wedding.

Nalan Xiuji would suffer the death penalty.

He wouldn't dare to report to you.

And, as for Niu Kulu,

he used to be proud and loud,

Nalan Xiuji wouldn't dare to challenge him.

Chu Zhaonan... You are very brave.

You are not afraid to say anything, or do anything.

That is because I have never failed in doing anything.

I need to rescue Nalan Minghui,

and I will do my best.

Niu Kulu said that...

she had been taken away by someone else.

He also said that one of his great masters died.

That is what he said, but I don't believe him.

To find out if it's the truth,

you can send me to search his place, then we will know.

All right. You may go. I'll wait for you.

Master. Sorry to trouble you.

It's nothing.

Chu Zhaonan. You didn't dare to make a move.

He thinks too much.

But it's good.

We can use his weakness.

So that he cannot tell true from false.

Then he won't take any action so easily.

He can pretend to surrender,

but I have my ways too.

I won't let him return.

It's not just me who said this.

In the eight armies,

there are a lot of great soldiers.

Why do you use so much effort...

to lure him into your plan?

I'm afraid that Chu Zhaonan...

is the best swordsman in the world.

Huh.

Please don't be angry.

I know that you don't believe in Chu Zhaonan.

Huh.

But using a talented person...

is what you taught me to do.

Chu Zhaonan is such a great talent.

I tried to lure him to be one of us.

To control him.

Including the seven swords.

That is a good reason.

But you have to find the right person.

I don't think you can trust Chu Zhaonan.

If you cannot control him, he will cause trouble.

Don't worry Master.

I will be very careful.

If you know what you're doing, then I won't say another word.

But don't underestimate him.

He dares to search my place.

He is over confident.

I think it will be all right for him to take a look.

The princess of the Nalan family...

are you really planning to marry her?

Yes.

Chu Zhaonan said that he saved Minghui from some thieves.

Do you believe him?

Xiuji still hasn't admitted...

that his daughter is missing.

There must be a problem.

You should think about it carefully.

Master.

Minghui is the woman I love.

I won't give up on her.

Matters surrounding Minghui...

have become more problematic.

You may not care but you should try to preserve the dignity of the Qing Dynasty.

Master, please take back what you said.

I have said that no one can besmirch her name.

You... Are you ordering me?

Yes!

Fine... That's fine.

Fine.

Step aside.

We are here to search the premises with the prince's order.

May I ask...

who are you looking for?

Are you qualified to ask?

Let's go!

You. Over there!

You. Follow me!

Help!

Help me!

Minghui! Minghui!

Why did you do that?

That woman doesn't deserve the dignity of the Qing Dynasty.

While she lives, your mind will be troubled.

You will give up your principles.

Duo Geduo, I did this for you.

I have said that I would not forgive anyone who hurts Minghui, including you.

Fine... Then be true to your word.

You should still remember what I taught you.

Good... Very good.

You have saved me several times.

I don't want to kill you. Leave.

I thank you for not killing me.

I take my leave.

Master... Take care.

When I am not here,

please take care of yourself.

Chu Zhaonan... Where is Minghui now?

In the Nalan house.

But the princess has had quite a fright.

She doesn't want to see anybody, or...

Or what?

Or else, she would rather kill herself.

The day after tomorrow is my wedding day.

Your Highness. Don't worry.

The princess said...

that when the time comes,

she will come here on time.

All right. I believe you.

Minghui...

Don't worry.

After I kill Duo Geduo,

I will bring Yang Yunchong here to see you.

Chu Zhaonan... What a pity.

You have missed a very good opportunity.

I saw Duo Geduo today.

But...

I suspect that it was not him.

I'm not sure.

Brother. Maybe you should...

give up pretending to surrender for a while.

Come back now.

When Senior Fu and Xin Longzi come back,

and the seven swords are ready,

then we will kill Duo Geduo together.

No way. I can't wait any longer.

The day after tomorrow is the wedding day.

The wedding day.

Right. During the ceremony,

I have to kill him.

Minghui, she...

Oh. I have found her.

Where is she?

She is staying in a very safe place.

Before the wedding,

she doesn't want to see anybody.

Yunchong. Don't worry.

After the wedding, I will take you to see her.

All right. I believe you.

Yunchong... Let me ask you something.

Say it.

From now on, no matter what happens,

you will still trust me, right?

I will.

Good brother.

Come.

Let's talk about our plans.

On the wedding day,

Zhibang and Mulang will lead the attack on the prison.

and rescue the brothers of the Red Spear Society.

Yufang will pretend to be the bride.

Master Liu and Yuanyin will pretend to be the relatives.

They will enter the prince's house through the main door.

Yunchong. You have to guard the backdoor.

And wait for my signal.

When you see it,

barge into the house.

I will find a chance in the house...

to kill Duo Geduo.

Yunchong. You should go back now.

I still have to find Nalan Xiuji.

In this plan,

he is a very important person.

Senior Fu.

Yunchong.

Third Brother. You're back.

Let's go now.

Duo Geduo has already been convinced that Minghui has returned home.

So for the next two days you'll have to keep this a secret.

The day after tomorrow...

The wedding sedan chair will be here.

You don't need to know who is inside.

When the time comes, you can go.

Nonsense...

If Minghui is not inside and the prince finds out,

my whole family will be put to death.

If someone asks you,

you can tell them that the sedan chair was switched by the Red Spear Society en route.

Then it's done.

Four hours after the sedan sets off,

I promise to bring your daughter back.

Why should I trust you?

You don't have to trust me.

But don't forget...

that your daughter is in my hands.

Don't use Minghui to threaten me.

You want to use this chance to kill Duo Geduo.

I won't help you.

Then I won't help your daughter either.

The wedding sedan chair will set off at the right time.

How can you promise me?

Four hours after the wedding sedan chair has set off,

I will let you see your daughter.

So long.

Chu Zhaonan.

Remember what you said today.

You have my word.

I promised you this...

because I want to rescue my own daughter.

The prince has always been good to us.

On the day of the wedding,

I will protect the prince at his palace.

If you want to kill him,

you will have to kill me first.

One more thing.

Killings are among men.

No matter what...

No matter what...

you have to bring back my daughter.

Baozhu. Baozhu.

You're here.

I'm here. Don't be scared.

Swordsman Yang. Swordsman Yang.

How is First Brother's plan?

I think there is a problem.

Duo Geduo is very well prepared.

Perhaps the whole thing is under his control.

And, we have been ignoring one person.

Who?

Niu Kulu.

Although he has left the prince's house,

we don't even know...

where he went or what he did.

That man is very cunning. We have to be very careful.

How about this?

Brothers... Come and have some sesame seed cake.

Fourth Brother. Here.

Second Brother. Come on. Have some cake.

I'm not hungry.

Senior Fu. I'm going to prepare for it.

All right.

Senior Fu. This one's for you.

Where is Xiao Lian?

I have sent her out of the city.

After our battle tomorrow, we'll go to pick her up.

How big is she now?

About...

this big.

After Third Brother left,

where did you find him?

In a peach blossom field.

Xin Longzi.

Xin Longzi.

Xin Longzi.

Xin Longzi.

Xin Longzi.

It's ok now, come on.

Come with me.

In fact, he has never fully recovered.

It comes back from time to time.

Then he...

The thing is, he feels better while drinking wine.

Without the wine, he may well relapse.

We have to fight a battle tomorrow.

I will take care of him.

Don't mention this to anyone else.

We shouldn't affect their confidence...

right before the battle.

Dad.

Are you feeling better today?

I feel fine.

You look more like your mother with each passing day.

Dad...

Through all these years,

have you missed mother?

Of course. I miss her everyday.

I thought I was the only one who missed her.

Silly girl.

You are just like your mom.

You play with your clothes whenever I talk seriously.

Yufang.

Tomorrow, we have to go to the prince's house.

This is a make or break thing.

I won't have time to take care of you then.

You have to be careful.

I understand. Don't worry.

Dad...

You have to take care of yourself.

If anything happens to me,

You have to... - Dad. You will be all right.

I won't let anything happen to you.

All right.

I am still waiting for the day of your marriage.

I will be drunk then.

Teacher. Teacher.

Teacher. Teacher.

Teacher. Teacher.

Where is Xiaopi?

Where is Xiaopi?

Xiaopi!

Where is Xiaopi?

Where is Xiaopi?
