21
00:01:50,040 --> 00:01:51,430
Greetings, Your Majesty.

22
00:01:54,430 --> 00:01:55,270
Your Majesty,

23
00:01:55,640 --> 00:01:57,040
please withdraw your decree.

24
00:01:57,510 --> 00:01:59,120
Chu Yu hasn't spoken yet.

25
00:02:01,350 --> 00:02:03,310
Why rush to reject it?

26
00:02:04,040 --> 00:02:05,310
Chu Yu is a Chu,

27
00:02:06,040 --> 00:02:07,280
a female general who can fight.

28
00:02:07,950 --> 00:02:09,830
She shouldn't be confined
to the inner chambers

29
00:02:10,080 --> 00:02:11,250
or trapped as someone's wife.

30
00:02:11,680 --> 00:02:12,840
I bear no selfish intent.

31
00:02:13,430 --> 00:02:14,840
Please take back your decree.

32
00:02:15,680 --> 00:02:16,840
No selfish intent?

33
00:02:20,030 --> 00:02:21,960
Is Chu Yu more suited to be

34
00:02:22,280 --> 00:02:23,710
a general or your wife?

35
00:02:24,120 --> 00:02:25,470
Do you think I don't know

36
00:02:25,870 --> 00:02:27,080
what you want?

37
00:02:29,840 --> 00:02:32,030
Your family has guarded Great Sui
for a hundred years.

38
00:02:32,470 --> 00:02:33,400
I want you

39
00:02:33,710 --> 00:02:35,240
to guard it for another hundred.

40
00:02:36,280 --> 00:02:37,120
Privately,

41
00:02:37,520 --> 00:02:38,400
I have told you

42
00:02:38,400 --> 00:02:39,430
about this.

43
00:02:39,750 --> 00:02:40,590
Are you going

44
00:02:42,560 --> 00:02:44,120
to openly defy me now?

45
00:02:44,870 --> 00:02:46,430
Is Chu Yu unfit to be a general,

46
00:02:47,560 --> 00:02:49,240
or can she simply not be my burden?

47
00:02:49,840 --> 00:02:52,000
I know your intentions as well.

48
00:02:53,560 --> 00:02:54,890
That day at Spring Breeze House,

49
00:02:55,000 --> 00:02:56,260
I already made my stance clear.

50
00:02:57,030 --> 00:02:59,280
This decree is simply meaningless.

51
00:02:59,750 --> 00:03:00,590
How dare you!

52
00:03:00,910 --> 00:03:02,800
Even at the cost of my life,

53
00:03:03,110 --> 00:03:04,890
I must plead
that you take back the decree.

54
00:03:05,520 --> 00:03:07,190
I'm willing to serve Great Sui forever,

55
00:03:08,430 --> 00:03:09,280
but I will not become

56
00:03:09,280 --> 00:03:10,520
the sage or the paragon

57
00:03:10,800 --> 00:03:11,640
in your mind.

58
00:03:17,400 --> 00:03:18,360
Guards!

59
00:03:18,360 --> 00:03:19,430
Drag him out!

60
00:03:19,910 --> 00:03:20,950
Your Majesty, please wait.

61
00:03:23,870 --> 00:03:24,710
Chu Yu.

62
00:03:25,840 --> 00:03:27,230
The Marquis of Zhenguo has refused.

63
00:03:27,560 --> 00:03:28,400
Answer me.

64
00:03:28,560 --> 00:03:29,600
Will you accept the title

65
00:03:30,680 --> 00:03:33,080
or not?

66
00:03:38,240 --> 00:03:39,150
I will not.

67
00:03:45,420 --> 00:03:46,660
(Memorial)

68
00:03:49,910 --> 00:03:50,750
Chu Yu,

69
00:03:51,360 --> 00:03:52,380
do you know

70
00:03:52,870 --> 00:03:54,400
what you just said?

71
00:03:55,400 --> 00:03:56,590
Your Majesty,

72
00:03:57,470 --> 00:03:59,840
why bestow this title on me?

73
00:04:00,280 --> 00:04:01,750
I wish to reward you.

74
00:04:02,240 --> 00:04:03,630
You've guarded the nation.

75
00:04:03,710 --> 00:04:05,950
You deserve to be a model
among the women of Great Sui.

76
00:04:06,360 --> 00:04:09,080
I know neither embroidery
nor needlework,

77
00:04:09,680 --> 00:04:11,120
nor do I understand the four arts.

78
00:04:11,520 --> 00:04:12,850
I only know how to wield a blade.

79
00:04:13,430 --> 00:04:14,630
Is such a woman truly

80
00:04:15,120 --> 00:04:17,600
the model in your eyes?

81
00:04:17,800 --> 00:04:19,430
By granting you the title today,

82
00:04:19,830 --> 00:04:21,120
I hope that you will reflect

83
00:04:21,120 --> 00:04:22,000
upon yourself

84
00:04:22,430 --> 00:04:23,370
and strive to improve.

85
00:04:24,360 --> 00:04:26,510
The Wei family is upright in conduct;

86
00:04:26,920 --> 00:04:28,160
as Mrs. Wei,

87
00:04:28,430 --> 00:04:30,070
you shall hold yourself with propriety.

88
00:04:31,480 --> 00:04:32,920
This is a matter of mutual honor.

89
00:04:33,600 --> 00:04:35,040
Everyone shall be pleased to see it.

90
00:04:36,000 --> 00:04:36,840
All the more reason

91
00:04:37,040 --> 00:04:38,510
I cannot accept it.

92
00:04:39,920 --> 00:04:40,760
I have never been

93
00:04:41,040 --> 00:04:43,120
a gentle and virtuous woman,

94
00:04:44,190 --> 00:04:46,070
nor will I ever become

95
00:04:46,070 --> 00:04:47,240
the ideal woman

96
00:04:47,240 --> 00:04:48,120
in your heart.

97
00:04:49,360 --> 00:04:50,480
Thus,

98
00:04:51,560 --> 00:04:53,040
I cannot accept this title.

99
00:04:57,360 --> 00:04:58,270
Since you refuse,

100
00:04:58,720 --> 00:05:00,560
I decree by imperial power

101
00:05:01,630 --> 00:05:03,630
that you shall accept it.

102
00:05:04,160 --> 00:05:05,040
You have no choice.

103
00:05:05,260 --> 00:05:07,540
The ceremonial attire has been sent
to the Wei Mansion.

104
00:05:07,560 --> 00:05:08,430
You must remember:

105
00:05:08,480 --> 00:05:10,610
Thunder and rain alike are gifts
from your sovereign.

106
00:05:10,950 --> 00:05:12,800
You can choose to wear

107
00:05:13,430 --> 00:05:14,720
the attire of a titled lady

108
00:05:16,920 --> 00:05:17,800
or that of a prisoner.

109
00:05:20,680 --> 00:05:21,520
Your Majesty...

110
00:05:27,390 --> 00:05:28,600
We have no choice left.

111
00:05:30,160 --> 00:05:31,000
I...

112
00:05:41,270 --> 00:05:42,310
I've spared their dignity

113
00:05:42,310 --> 00:05:43,800
by not announcing this

114
00:05:44,240 --> 00:05:45,560
before the court.

115
00:05:46,160 --> 00:05:47,680
Yet they still fail to see reason!

116
00:05:50,360 --> 00:05:51,300
Please calm your anger.

117
00:05:55,480 --> 00:05:56,600
Minister Gu, you did well

118
00:05:57,310 --> 00:05:59,040
at Spring Breeze House.

119
00:05:59,830 --> 00:06:01,270
I am most pleased.

120
00:06:01,870 --> 00:06:02,970
What reward do you desire?

121
00:06:03,510 --> 00:06:04,350
Don't worry.

122
00:06:04,800 --> 00:06:05,640
Speak freely.

123
00:06:13,630 --> 00:06:14,470
Your Majesty,

124
00:06:15,070 --> 00:06:16,630
my father was implicated years ago

125
00:06:16,630 --> 00:06:17,770
by the Lord of Qin's treason.

126
00:06:18,360 --> 00:06:20,870
He's carried that false charge
to this day.

127
00:06:21,360 --> 00:06:22,200
If you could clear

128
00:06:22,830 --> 00:06:24,480
my father's name

129
00:06:24,480 --> 00:06:25,420
and restore his honor,

130
00:06:25,920 --> 00:06:27,870
I'd be deeply grateful.

131
00:06:28,360 --> 00:06:29,730
I dare not ask for anything else.

132
00:06:34,390 --> 00:06:37,600
You and your father are truly alike.

133
00:06:39,040 --> 00:06:40,600
Do you think I do not know

134
00:06:41,800 --> 00:06:43,200
what kind of man Chancellor Gu was?

135
00:06:48,240 --> 00:06:50,600
The case back then was not a matter

136
00:06:51,240 --> 00:06:53,310
of simple right and wrong.

137
00:06:54,310 --> 00:06:55,800
Had the truth been pursued to the end,

138
00:06:56,510 --> 00:06:57,390
Great Sui

139
00:06:58,190 --> 00:07:00,000
would have plunged into chaos.

140
00:07:00,920 --> 00:07:01,920
Your father

141
00:07:01,920 --> 00:07:02,870
understood this,

142
00:07:03,480 --> 00:07:04,680
and for the sake of the realm,

143
00:07:05,270 --> 00:07:06,920
he offered himself up for punishment

144
00:07:07,360 --> 00:07:08,480
to settle everything down.

145
00:07:10,390 --> 00:07:11,750
I have wronged him indeed,

146
00:07:12,950 --> 00:07:16,160
so I promised to protect you.

147
00:07:20,510 --> 00:07:21,350
Minister Gu,

148
00:07:21,920 --> 00:07:23,120
you are young, capable,

149
00:07:23,600 --> 00:07:25,240
steady, and decisive.

150
00:07:25,870 --> 00:07:26,950
You've not disappointed me.

151
00:07:27,680 --> 00:07:29,070
Entrusting the Crown Prince to you

152
00:07:30,680 --> 00:07:31,830
was a wise decision.

153
00:07:36,000 --> 00:07:38,040
But to let you remain merely a Minister

154
00:07:38,310 --> 00:07:39,720
would be beneath your talent

155
00:07:40,510 --> 00:07:42,870
and a disservice to your late father.

156
00:07:43,950 --> 00:07:44,830
So, tell me.

157
00:07:47,870 --> 00:07:48,870
Would you wish

158
00:07:49,600 --> 00:07:51,680
to claim the seat
once held by your father?

159
00:07:59,900 --> 00:08:05,540
(True Might)

160
00:08:05,560 --> 00:08:06,400
Lan,

161
00:08:06,800 --> 00:08:07,750
Yu was suddenly granted

162
00:08:08,070 --> 00:08:10,040
a title by the Emperor.

163
00:08:10,270 --> 00:08:11,950
What should they do?

164
00:08:13,120 --> 00:08:14,870
If anything goes wrong,

165
00:08:15,270 --> 00:08:17,190
they'll commit a crime
punishable by death.

166
00:08:19,870 --> 00:08:20,830
Why must the Emperor

167
00:08:21,040 --> 00:08:22,480
insist on doing this?

168
00:08:24,000 --> 00:08:24,840
That day,

169
00:08:25,070 --> 00:08:26,950
I heard Yun mention a few things,

170
00:08:27,270 --> 00:08:28,830
but I didn't ask further.

171
00:08:32,510 --> 00:08:33,990
- Yu.
- Yu.

172
00:08:38,240 --> 00:08:39,120
Surprise?

173
00:08:39,360 --> 00:08:40,200
I've come back again.

174
00:08:41,200 --> 00:08:42,240
It seems

175
00:08:42,390 --> 00:08:43,270
that even fate

176
00:08:43,270 --> 00:08:44,320
wants me to stay here.

177
00:08:44,670 --> 00:08:45,510
Yu,

178
00:08:45,910 --> 00:08:46,870
are you all right?

179
00:08:47,150 --> 00:08:48,550
Yes, Yu.

180
00:08:48,550 --> 00:08:50,080
You don't seem yourself.

181
00:08:51,320 --> 00:08:52,160
How could that be?

182
00:08:52,750 --> 00:08:54,390
I always enjoy myself while I can.

183
00:08:54,630 --> 00:08:56,080
If there's a problem, I solve it.

184
00:08:56,270 --> 00:08:57,200
If I can't solve it,

185
00:08:57,200 --> 00:08:58,150
I'll cheer myself up.

186
00:08:59,790 --> 00:09:01,870
Yun was feeling down.

187
00:09:02,590 --> 00:09:03,630
He's gone to meet friends.

188
00:09:03,630 --> 00:09:04,570
Don't worry about him.

189
00:09:05,150 --> 00:09:05,990
Yu,

190
00:09:06,670 --> 00:09:07,790
Yun told me

191
00:09:07,790 --> 00:09:08,720
he'd made up his mind,

192
00:09:08,960 --> 00:09:10,790
so I've chosen to respect your feelings.

193
00:09:11,670 --> 00:09:13,200
But with the imperial decree,

194
00:09:13,670 --> 00:09:15,270
you both must protect yourselves,

195
00:09:15,630 --> 00:09:16,910
as well as the Chu family

196
00:09:17,080 --> 00:09:17,920
and the Wei family.

197
00:09:18,080 --> 00:09:19,750
This isn't just about you two.

198
00:09:21,670 --> 00:09:22,510
Don't worry.

199
00:09:23,000 --> 00:09:23,870
Then Wanyue and I

200
00:09:23,870 --> 00:09:24,790
will go and unpack.

201
00:09:25,870 --> 00:09:26,710
Go on.

202
00:09:30,620 --> 00:09:33,260
(Marquis of Zhenguo's Mansion)

203
00:09:33,390 --> 00:09:34,320
Why is no one caring

204
00:09:34,320 --> 00:09:35,840
whether you're happy or not?

205
00:09:37,000 --> 00:09:38,320
His Lordship is so inconsiderate.

206
00:09:39,030 --> 00:09:40,150
At a time like this,

207
00:09:40,260 --> 00:09:41,110
he still went

208
00:09:41,120 --> 00:09:42,720
to drink with his friends

209
00:09:43,550 --> 00:09:44,960
instead of checking on you.

210
00:09:45,840 --> 00:09:46,680
Truly outrageous.

211
00:09:47,150 --> 00:09:48,510
Chun has said it.

212
00:09:49,240 --> 00:09:51,270
If Wei Yun and I cross the line,

213
00:09:51,840 --> 00:09:53,360
it'd be a crime punishable by death.

214
00:09:57,600 --> 00:09:59,030
But I don't understand.

215
00:10:00,270 --> 00:10:01,670
What's wrong

216
00:10:01,670 --> 00:10:02,630
with being with the one

217
00:10:02,630 --> 00:10:03,480
you truly love?

218
00:10:04,550 --> 00:10:06,080
Why must it be so hard?

219
00:10:06,720 --> 00:10:07,560
Hard?

220
00:10:08,360 --> 00:10:09,200
I don't think so.

221
00:10:10,910 --> 00:10:12,390
"Finding true love"

222
00:10:12,840 --> 00:10:14,000
"and growing old together."

223
00:10:14,510 --> 00:10:15,440
We've already achieved

224
00:10:15,670 --> 00:10:16,720
half of that.

225
00:10:18,440 --> 00:10:19,960
I still remember what Madam Wei said

226
00:10:19,960 --> 00:10:20,910
before she passed.

227
00:10:22,120 --> 00:10:24,080
"Apart both in life"

228
00:10:24,550 --> 00:10:26,550
"and death."

229
00:10:30,150 --> 00:10:31,150
While alive,

230
00:10:31,600 --> 00:10:32,550
they spent

231
00:10:32,550 --> 00:10:33,750
most of their days apart.

232
00:10:34,390 --> 00:10:35,850
Her husband died on the battlefield,

233
00:10:36,030 --> 00:10:37,200
and she wasn't by his side.

234
00:10:39,200 --> 00:10:40,520
That's the fate of the Wei family

235
00:10:40,840 --> 00:10:42,150
and of the Chu family.

236
00:10:43,320 --> 00:10:44,670
But Wei Yun and I are different.

237
00:10:45,480 --> 00:10:46,320
We can fight

238
00:10:46,750 --> 00:10:48,270
side by side

239
00:10:48,600 --> 00:10:50,080
and see each other every day.

240
00:10:51,750 --> 00:10:52,590
However...

241
00:10:54,550 --> 00:10:55,940
However, we just can't be a couple.

242
00:10:58,910 --> 00:10:59,790
My Lady,

243
00:11:00,630 --> 00:11:02,870
I was worried you'd be upset,

244
00:11:03,510 --> 00:11:05,270
but you're the one comforting me now.

245
00:11:08,360 --> 00:11:09,360
Don't worry about me.

246
00:11:09,960 --> 00:11:10,900
You should think instead

247
00:11:11,550 --> 00:11:13,120
about what kind of man

248
00:11:13,120 --> 00:11:14,200
you'll marry one day.

249
00:11:14,550 --> 00:11:16,030
I'll make sure to find you a good one.

250
00:11:16,360 --> 00:11:17,200
No way.

251
00:11:17,480 --> 00:11:18,360
In this life,

252
00:11:18,960 --> 00:11:20,440
I'm sticking with you.

253
00:11:20,790 --> 00:11:21,890
I won't leave even if I die.

254
00:11:22,670 --> 00:11:23,510
I don't want that.

255
00:11:24,150 --> 00:11:25,480
You don't want me?

256
00:11:25,480 --> 00:11:26,870
When you're old

257
00:11:27,000 --> 00:11:28,080
and can't look after me,

258
00:11:28,080 --> 00:11:29,200
I'll just find a cute girl

259
00:11:29,550 --> 00:11:31,360
- She seems calm to me.
- to serve me.

260
00:11:31,750 --> 00:11:32,920
She doesn't need our comfort.

261
00:11:34,440 --> 00:11:36,630
Then comfort me instead.

262
00:11:39,080 --> 00:11:40,870
It wasn't easy for me to sneak out.

263
00:11:41,910 --> 00:11:43,200
My father sent

264
00:11:43,200 --> 00:11:45,030
so many spies to tail me.

265
00:11:45,910 --> 00:11:46,750
Let's go.

266
00:11:52,020 --> 00:11:53,500
(Fragrance House)

267
00:12:08,670 --> 00:12:09,550
Ladies,

268
00:12:10,550 --> 00:12:12,630
I'm back!

269
00:12:13,270 --> 00:12:14,870
I've missed you all so much!

270
00:12:15,030 --> 00:12:17,910
Lu Qiba! Lu Qiba!

271
00:12:18,750 --> 00:12:19,960
Did you miss me?

272
00:12:20,360 --> 00:12:21,750
Mr. Lu,

273
00:12:21,960 --> 00:12:23,600
you haven't come for ages!

274
00:12:23,790 --> 00:12:24,630
I thought

275
00:12:24,630 --> 00:12:25,840
some young lady

276
00:12:25,840 --> 00:12:26,680
had stolen you away,

277
00:12:26,680 --> 00:12:28,030
and you no longer cared for us.

278
00:12:28,720 --> 00:12:30,720
No matter how far I wander,

279
00:12:30,720 --> 00:12:32,240
I'll always come back.

280
00:12:33,630 --> 00:12:34,720
This is...

281
00:12:35,120 --> 00:12:36,480
The Marquis of Zhenguo.

282
00:12:36,480 --> 00:12:38,030
My goodness.

283
00:12:38,270 --> 00:12:39,120
Ladies,

284
00:12:39,120 --> 00:12:41,720
the God of War in your dreams is here!

285
00:12:41,720 --> 00:12:47,840
God of War!

286
00:12:49,120 --> 00:12:50,630
Who is this?

287
00:12:51,000 --> 00:12:51,840
Everyone,

288
00:12:52,030 --> 00:12:53,960
he's Mr. Song Wenchang.

289
00:12:54,910 --> 00:12:57,750
- Long time no see!
- Come on.

290
00:12:57,750 --> 00:13:00,000
Ladies, he's even more impressive,

291
00:13:00,240 --> 00:13:02,460
a guest of immense fortune,

292
00:13:02,840 --> 00:13:05,150
son of the Duke of Hu!

293
00:13:05,150 --> 00:13:07,960
Mr. Song! Mr. Song!

294
00:13:07,970 --> 00:13:09,040
I care about my reputation,

295
00:13:09,040 --> 00:13:09,680
unlike you two.

296
00:13:09,870 --> 00:13:10,910
What if Jin finds out?

297
00:13:11,270 --> 00:13:12,110
Yun,

298
00:13:12,270 --> 00:13:13,510
I only came to help

299
00:13:13,510 --> 00:13:14,550
because of our friendship.

300
00:13:14,750 --> 00:13:16,320
You must ask Yu to help me

301
00:13:16,320 --> 00:13:17,270
explain to Jin.

302
00:13:18,120 --> 00:13:20,480
Mr. Song! God of War!

303
00:13:20,630 --> 00:13:21,550
Come on.

304
00:13:21,550 --> 00:13:23,240
Have you moved on already?

305
00:13:23,750 --> 00:13:25,230
What's so great about the God of War?

306
00:13:26,320 --> 00:13:28,150
Without the weapons I made,

307
00:13:28,150 --> 00:13:29,720
he'd have been beaten full of holes.

308
00:13:30,200 --> 00:13:31,150
You like it?

309
00:13:31,630 --> 00:13:32,720
You can have that title.

310
00:13:33,360 --> 00:13:34,840
No, I can't handle that.

311
00:13:35,670 --> 00:13:37,000
Marquis of Zhenguo,

312
00:13:37,270 --> 00:13:39,080
which of our girls

313
00:13:39,080 --> 00:13:40,120
has caught your eye?

314
00:13:41,240 --> 00:13:42,710
- I want her and her.
- Pick me!

315
00:13:42,840 --> 00:13:45,120
- Her, her, her!
- God of War!

316
00:13:45,120 --> 00:13:45,960
And her too!

317
00:13:46,200 --> 00:13:47,040
I'll take them all.

318
00:13:47,200 --> 00:13:48,360
All of us?

319
00:13:52,750 --> 00:13:54,360
That's wonderful!

320
00:13:54,360 --> 00:13:55,200
Jin?

321
00:13:55,360 --> 00:13:56,200
Jin!

322
00:13:56,510 --> 00:13:57,630
Catch this!

323
00:13:59,480 --> 00:14:00,320
Is that enough?

324
00:14:00,750 --> 00:14:02,550
More than enough!

325
00:14:02,550 --> 00:14:03,790
Give me the finest private room

326
00:14:04,080 --> 00:14:05,200
you've got here.

327
00:14:05,200 --> 00:14:06,360
Got it! Girls, come on!

328
00:14:06,360 --> 00:14:08,840
- God of War!
- Hurry, ladies!

329
00:14:08,870 --> 00:14:10,440
God of War!

330
00:14:10,440 --> 00:14:10,880
Yun,

331
00:14:10,950 --> 00:14:11,990
aren't you afraid that Yu

332
00:14:11,990 --> 00:14:13,390
will find out about your wild ways?

333
00:14:13,390 --> 00:14:15,150
God of War!

334
00:14:15,150 --> 00:14:15,990
Yes,

335
00:14:18,320 --> 00:14:19,720
but I believe she'll understand me.

336
00:14:20,720 --> 00:14:26,630
Go for it!

337
00:14:26,630 --> 00:14:28,240
Song, you lost.

338
00:14:28,240 --> 00:14:29,080
I can do better.

339
00:14:30,150 --> 00:14:30,990
Drink up!

340
00:14:31,240 --> 00:14:38,210
Drink! Drink! Drink!

341
00:14:42,390 --> 00:14:43,230
Ladies.

342
00:15:02,390 --> 00:15:03,230
Why did you stop?

343
00:15:05,790 --> 00:15:07,600
You've been down
since the court dismissed.

344
00:15:08,480 --> 00:15:09,510
You even dragged us here

345
00:15:09,510 --> 00:15:10,670
to cheer you up.

346
00:15:11,750 --> 00:15:13,080
You don't need to say it.

347
00:15:14,120 --> 00:15:16,080
We're not fools.

348
00:15:16,910 --> 00:15:17,910
Obviously,

349
00:15:18,160 --> 00:15:19,690
you're trying to ruin your reputation.

350
00:15:22,030 --> 00:15:23,440
Yu is also very bold.

351
00:15:23,870 --> 00:15:25,870
She confessed to you in public

352
00:15:26,320 --> 00:15:27,490
and even defied the Emperor.

353
00:15:29,080 --> 00:15:29,920
Yes.

354
00:15:31,720 --> 00:15:33,240
How nice she is.

355
00:15:33,750 --> 00:15:35,120
She's the best in the world.

356
00:15:38,670 --> 00:15:39,510
How about this?

357
00:15:39,790 --> 00:15:40,960
I'll give you some money,

358
00:15:41,440 --> 00:15:42,790
and you two can elope.

359
00:15:43,960 --> 00:15:45,750
Then I'd better work hard,

360
00:15:46,360 --> 00:15:48,670
so I can take your place
as the God of War.

361
00:15:51,150 --> 00:15:52,360
Save it, both of you.

362
00:15:53,510 --> 00:15:54,510
I'm not afraid of death.

363
00:15:55,550 --> 00:15:56,630
Why would I fear a title?

364
00:15:59,750 --> 00:16:00,670
But this time,

365
00:16:01,240 --> 00:16:02,390
it's not as simple

366
00:16:02,390 --> 00:16:03,320
as we think.

367
00:16:04,840 --> 00:16:06,270
If we cross the line again,

368
00:16:08,030 --> 00:16:09,440
we'll implicate others.

369
00:16:13,750 --> 00:16:14,600
That is

370
00:16:15,480 --> 00:16:17,030
what friends are for.

371
00:16:17,550 --> 00:16:18,390
It's fine.

372
00:16:18,600 --> 00:16:19,550
Go on and implicate me.

373
00:16:20,120 --> 00:16:22,200
I fear nothing.

374
00:16:24,480 --> 00:16:25,320
To me,

375
00:16:25,670 --> 00:16:26,510
we're friends

376
00:16:26,840 --> 00:16:27,680
and brothers-in-law.

377
00:16:28,150 --> 00:16:28,990
I fear nothing, too.

378
00:16:32,030 --> 00:16:33,600
Thank you for comforting me.

379
00:16:34,960 --> 00:16:36,240
We've come this far.

380
00:16:36,750 --> 00:16:37,670
Even fate

381
00:16:38,390 --> 00:16:40,200
can't stop me from loving Yu.

382
00:16:41,720 --> 00:16:43,120
I'll fight everything

383
00:16:43,120 --> 00:16:44,080
that stands between us.

384
00:16:45,750 --> 00:16:47,550
If not today, then tomorrow.

385
00:16:48,910 --> 00:16:49,750
One day,

386
00:16:51,750 --> 00:16:52,750
I'll hold Yu's hand

387
00:16:52,750 --> 00:16:53,720
openly and proudly.

388
00:17:18,070 --> 00:17:19,590
Young Marquis Wei

389
00:17:19,920 --> 00:17:22,030
rose so high

390
00:17:22,270 --> 00:17:23,270
only to fall so fast.

391
00:17:23,920 --> 00:17:25,200
After winning a battle,

392
00:17:25,640 --> 00:17:27,290
he came back so arrogant

393
00:17:28,040 --> 00:17:29,400
that he quarreled with the Emperor,

394
00:17:29,810 --> 00:17:30,750
made a scene

395
00:17:30,960 --> 00:17:32,480
at Spring Breeze House,

396
00:17:33,240 --> 00:17:34,650
and went to the brothel right after.

397
00:17:35,510 --> 00:17:36,590
Look at him now.

398
00:17:37,790 --> 00:17:38,680
Truly ridiculous.

399
00:17:43,700 --> 00:17:47,420
(Marquis of Zhenguo, Wei Yun)

400
00:17:59,350 --> 00:18:00,190
More wine?

401
00:18:01,400 --> 00:18:02,240
You...

402
00:18:02,640 --> 00:18:03,550
You should drink less.

403
00:18:05,000 --> 00:18:05,860
Since you were given

404
00:18:05,870 --> 00:18:07,350
the title,

405
00:18:08,240 --> 00:18:09,440
Mother's been blaming herself.

406
00:18:10,720 --> 00:18:12,550
If she hadn't helped the matchmaker

407
00:18:12,680 --> 00:18:13,830
find you a suitor,

408
00:18:14,170 --> 00:18:15,030
none of this

409
00:18:15,030 --> 00:18:16,070
would've happened.

410
00:18:17,350 --> 00:18:19,000
She feels she made a mistake,

411
00:18:19,550 --> 00:18:20,390
so she sent me

412
00:18:21,550 --> 00:18:23,000
to comfort you.

413
00:18:26,480 --> 00:18:28,680
The Emperor was behind this,

414
00:18:29,030 --> 00:18:31,110
and Gu Chusheng helped him.

415
00:18:31,960 --> 00:18:33,260
It has nothing to do with Mother.

416
00:18:33,790 --> 00:18:35,240
Tell her not to overthink.

417
00:18:36,680 --> 00:18:37,520
Then,

418
00:18:39,510 --> 00:18:41,960
are you really all right?

419
00:18:43,830 --> 00:18:45,830
Wei Yun and I fought side by side

420
00:18:45,830 --> 00:18:46,850
and risked our lives,

421
00:18:47,070 --> 00:18:48,680
and this is what we got in return.

422
00:18:49,590 --> 00:18:50,430
How could I

423
00:18:51,640 --> 00:18:52,510
possibly feel fine?

424
00:18:54,310 --> 00:18:55,610
I'm just unwilling to accept it.

425
00:18:57,790 --> 00:18:58,640
Still,

426
00:18:59,000 --> 00:18:59,960
I know

427
00:19:00,440 --> 00:19:02,000
how to cheer myself up

428
00:19:02,720 --> 00:19:04,750
and find joy

429
00:19:05,030 --> 00:19:06,240
in hardship.

430
00:19:08,720 --> 00:19:11,830
Young Marquis Wei and you...

431
00:19:14,240 --> 00:19:16,000
If he doesn't leave me,
I won't leave him.

432
00:19:18,030 --> 00:19:20,440
That's all we can do for now.

433
00:19:21,400 --> 00:19:22,680
But I'll find a way

434
00:19:23,400 --> 00:19:24,720
to give him a rightful identity

435
00:19:24,920 --> 00:19:26,240
by my side.

436
00:19:29,960 --> 00:19:30,960
Chu Yu,

437
00:19:34,110 --> 00:19:35,590
I want to go there. Let's go.

438
00:19:36,750 --> 00:19:37,590
There?

439
00:19:40,400 --> 00:19:42,480
I've been locked up at home for days.

440
00:19:43,160 --> 00:19:44,480
When I came here today,

441
00:19:44,750 --> 00:19:45,920
Father sent a bunch of people

442
00:19:45,920 --> 00:19:46,920
to follow me

443
00:19:48,000 --> 00:19:50,310
to keep me from seeing Linyang.

444
00:19:54,640 --> 00:19:55,480
Fine.

445
00:20:03,270 --> 00:20:05,030
Are we really to be trapped

446
00:20:05,640 --> 00:20:07,960
in the inner chambers?

447
00:20:08,590 --> 00:20:10,550
Titles and marriage

448
00:20:11,640 --> 00:20:13,480
are just to cage us inside.

449
00:20:14,750 --> 00:20:16,320
Chu Jin, don't you think so?

450
00:20:19,070 --> 00:20:20,240
Jin is going

451
00:20:20,240 --> 00:20:21,550
to marry your brother.

452
00:20:22,000 --> 00:20:23,720
If you scare her off,

453
00:20:23,920 --> 00:20:25,030
Song Wenchang

454
00:20:25,030 --> 00:20:26,030
might come crying to you.

455
00:20:27,240 --> 00:20:28,590
I want to marry him

456
00:20:29,640 --> 00:20:30,790
because I love him.

457
00:20:32,270 --> 00:20:33,110
Besides,

458
00:20:33,680 --> 00:20:34,640
I can keep doing

459
00:20:34,640 --> 00:20:35,960
what I love that way.

460
00:20:36,580 --> 00:20:37,440
Song Wenchang

461
00:20:37,440 --> 00:20:38,590
would never cage me in.

462
00:20:39,160 --> 00:20:40,310
That's because my brother

463
00:20:40,310 --> 00:20:41,440
is kind and gentle.

464
00:20:41,440 --> 00:20:42,510
You got lucky.

465
00:20:44,880 --> 00:20:45,750
I'm not so lucky.

466
00:20:46,350 --> 00:20:47,510
I barely escaped being made

467
00:20:47,510 --> 00:20:48,750
the Crown Princess

468
00:20:49,440 --> 00:20:51,400
and found the man I truly love,

469
00:20:52,550 --> 00:20:54,440
but I still got tripped up by fate.

470
00:20:55,270 --> 00:20:56,110
Besides,

471
00:20:56,790 --> 00:20:59,000
I've saved lives on the battlefield,

472
00:21:00,030 --> 00:21:01,070
but my family

473
00:21:01,070 --> 00:21:01,910
still doesn't believe

474
00:21:01,920 --> 00:21:03,310
I can be a good physician.

475
00:21:05,110 --> 00:21:05,950
Tuantuan,

476
00:21:06,270 --> 00:21:07,550
my brother turned you down

477
00:21:07,790 --> 00:21:08,630
because...

478
00:21:09,000 --> 00:21:10,000
I know.

479
00:21:12,350 --> 00:21:14,400
Linyang likes me,

480
00:21:14,960 --> 00:21:16,550
so he doesn't want me to waste my time.

481
00:21:18,110 --> 00:21:20,000
But he's never asked

482
00:21:20,000 --> 00:21:21,110
if I want him

483
00:21:21,110 --> 00:21:22,030
to do this.

484
00:21:25,200 --> 00:21:27,240
So, I've been wondering lately

485
00:21:28,400 --> 00:21:31,480
whether we're right for each other.

486
00:21:35,510 --> 00:21:36,350
So, Tuantuan,

487
00:21:37,960 --> 00:21:39,790
have you found your answer?

488
00:21:49,370 --> 00:21:50,270
We came

489
00:21:50,270 --> 00:21:52,110
to comfort you.

490
00:21:52,590 --> 00:21:53,440
Somehow, it's become

491
00:21:53,440 --> 00:21:54,920
my confession meeting.

492
00:21:56,640 --> 00:21:57,480
I can't do this.

493
00:21:58,110 --> 00:21:58,950
It's fine.

494
00:21:59,480 --> 00:22:01,000
Having the three of you here tonight

495
00:22:02,440 --> 00:22:03,400
makes me truly happy.

496
00:22:06,070 --> 00:22:08,590
I only came because Mother forced me.

497
00:22:09,790 --> 00:22:10,680
My Lady,

498
00:22:10,920 --> 00:22:12,240
you're not being honest.

499
00:22:12,640 --> 00:22:13,720
It was you who wanted

500
00:22:13,720 --> 00:22:15,440
to keep my lady company.

501
00:22:15,880 --> 00:22:16,750
Wanyue.

502
00:22:16,750 --> 00:22:17,590
Isn't that right?

503
00:22:18,480 --> 00:22:19,790
Chu Yu.

504
00:22:24,310 --> 00:22:25,480
Come with me.

505
00:22:27,310 --> 00:22:28,150
Where are we going?

506
00:22:28,590 --> 00:22:29,750
You don't belong here.

507
00:22:29,920 --> 00:22:31,000
Come with me.

508
00:22:32,030 --> 00:22:32,870
I'll travel

509
00:22:33,440 --> 00:22:34,680
the land healing people;

510
00:22:35,680 --> 00:22:37,440
you'll bring justice everywhere.

511
00:22:38,160 --> 00:22:39,310
If war breaks out,

512
00:22:39,680 --> 00:22:41,320
we'll fight side by side for our nation;

513
00:22:42,310 --> 00:22:44,110
if peace reigns,

514
00:22:44,310 --> 00:22:45,720
we'll journey through the world.

515
00:22:49,400 --> 00:22:50,590
Chu Yu,

516
00:22:52,000 --> 00:22:53,350
you shouldn't be trapped

517
00:22:53,350 --> 00:22:55,480
in the inner chambers here.

518
00:22:55,960 --> 00:22:56,920
You were born

519
00:22:56,920 --> 00:22:57,880
to be a general.

520
00:22:58,830 --> 00:22:59,880
That title

521
00:23:00,400 --> 00:23:01,680
is an insult to you.

522
00:23:02,720 --> 00:23:03,560
I'll...

523
00:23:04,000 --> 00:23:04,840
I'll take you away.

524
00:23:05,160 --> 00:23:06,070
I'll take you away!

525
00:23:06,070 --> 00:23:06,910
Tuantuan.

526
00:23:06,920 --> 00:23:07,970
Careful!

527
00:23:08,000 --> 00:23:09,480
You're adorable when drunk.

528
00:23:09,720 --> 00:23:10,720
Exactly.

529
00:23:10,960 --> 00:23:12,920
She's so sweet.

530
00:23:18,680 --> 00:23:19,520
Thank you.

531
00:23:20,110 --> 00:23:20,950
I feel comforted now.

532
00:23:28,480 --> 00:23:29,510
- Cheers.
- Cheers.

533
00:23:29,510 --> 00:23:30,350
I'll join you.

534
00:23:37,310 --> 00:23:38,270
Careful, careful.

535
00:23:38,270 --> 00:23:39,650
I'll give you an acupuncture shot.

536
00:23:39,970 --> 00:23:40,910
- Acupuncture!
- Fine.

537
00:23:40,920 --> 00:23:41,760
Acupuncture...

538
00:23:42,240 --> 00:23:44,240
You'll be running like the wind soon.

539
00:23:44,790 --> 00:23:45,720
Fine, give me a shot.

540
00:23:46,520 --> 00:23:48,240
If I'd known
you couldn't hold your liquor,

541
00:23:48,240 --> 00:23:49,350
I wouldn't have brought you.

542
00:23:51,480 --> 00:23:53,160
Linyang,

543
00:23:54,440 --> 00:23:56,750
if I said I don't like you anymore,

544
00:23:56,960 --> 00:23:58,830
would you be sad?

545
00:23:59,200 --> 00:24:00,110
What a sin.

546
00:24:00,110 --> 00:24:01,480
How could an unmarried girl

547
00:24:01,480 --> 00:24:02,750
say something like that?

548
00:24:03,680 --> 00:24:05,270
I must report this to the Duke

549
00:24:05,270 --> 00:24:06,480
so he can discipline you.

550
00:24:06,750 --> 00:24:08,000
What sin?

551
00:24:08,310 --> 00:24:09,440
Then I'll say it, too.

552
00:24:09,720 --> 00:24:10,720
I like money

553
00:24:11,030 --> 00:24:12,240
and Mr. Song Wenchang,

554
00:24:12,640 --> 00:24:14,010
but I just don't like an old maid

555
00:24:14,010 --> 00:24:14,450
like you!

556
00:24:16,160 --> 00:24:17,000
You...

557
00:24:26,440 --> 00:24:27,280
Slow down.

558
00:24:29,920 --> 00:24:30,760
Jin.

559
00:24:32,680 --> 00:24:33,520
Jin,

560
00:24:34,270 --> 00:24:35,440
did I hear right just now?

561
00:24:37,000 --> 00:24:37,840
You said...

562
00:24:38,240 --> 00:24:39,080
Wait.

563
00:25:02,510 --> 00:25:03,350
Mr. Song,

564
00:25:04,110 --> 00:25:05,590
take care of Miss Song.

565
00:25:37,480 --> 00:25:38,510
You're a Marquis.

566
00:25:38,680 --> 00:25:39,680
How can you sneak around

567
00:25:39,680 --> 00:25:41,240
outside my room

568
00:25:41,440 --> 00:25:42,280
in the dead of night?

569
00:25:43,000 --> 00:25:43,840
I missed you too much

570
00:25:44,200 --> 00:25:45,040
to wait till dawn.

571
00:25:47,000 --> 00:25:48,510
Besides, I haven't even gone in.

572
00:25:57,440 --> 00:25:58,280
Yu.

573
00:26:01,070 --> 00:26:01,910
Thank you.

574
00:26:03,720 --> 00:26:05,000
In the great hall today,

575
00:26:05,640 --> 00:26:06,890
I defied the Emperor in public

576
00:26:07,270 --> 00:26:08,240
and earned his wrath,

577
00:26:09,400 --> 00:26:11,000
yet you stood by my side.

578
00:26:13,200 --> 00:26:14,040
Thank you

579
00:26:15,070 --> 00:26:16,110
for everything you've done

580
00:26:19,510 --> 00:26:20,350
for me

581
00:26:21,110 --> 00:26:22,030
and for us.

582
00:26:26,790 --> 00:26:28,680
Unfortunately, I failed.

583
00:26:29,900 --> 00:26:31,090
That attire was still bestowed

584
00:26:31,090 --> 00:26:31,750
on me.

585
00:26:35,590 --> 00:26:36,720
That identity is a shackle

586
00:26:36,720 --> 00:26:38,110
forged by the Emperor and the world,

587
00:26:39,550 --> 00:26:41,160
but it will never be our chain.

588
00:26:43,440 --> 00:26:44,400
To me,

589
00:26:45,110 --> 00:26:46,590
it's just a piece of clothing.

590
00:26:46,880 --> 00:26:47,720
So, I've stuffed it

591
00:26:48,270 --> 00:26:49,830
at the bottom of my chest.

592
00:26:52,310 --> 00:26:53,150
However, Wei Yun,

593
00:26:54,640 --> 00:26:56,200
what stands between us now

594
00:26:56,680 --> 00:26:57,520
is fate.

595
00:26:58,830 --> 00:26:59,790
Are you afraid?

596
00:26:59,790 --> 00:27:01,440
I've been almost dead several times.

597
00:27:01,720 --> 00:27:02,760
What's there to fear now?

598
00:27:04,480 --> 00:27:05,320
Besides,

599
00:27:07,350 --> 00:27:08,750
you're by my side.

600
00:27:18,240 --> 00:27:19,180
I'm not afraid, either.

601
00:27:20,880 --> 00:27:21,880
In fact, today,

602
00:27:22,350 --> 00:27:23,450
I dared to speak so boldly

603
00:27:23,450 --> 00:27:24,690
to the Emperor

604
00:27:25,720 --> 00:27:26,920
because of you.

605
00:27:28,030 --> 00:27:29,000
I want to stand with you,

606
00:27:29,400 --> 00:27:30,370
steadfast and unshaken.

607
00:27:36,160 --> 00:27:37,240
What's that sound?

608
00:27:40,350 --> 00:27:42,010
This is Winner.

609
00:27:42,010 --> 00:27:43,150
Song Wenchang, Lu Qiba, and I

610
00:27:43,200 --> 00:27:44,830
got it for you at Fragrance House.

611
00:27:48,030 --> 00:27:49,240
You went to Fragrance House?

612
00:27:51,820 --> 00:27:53,070
I didn't do anything improper.

613
00:27:53,070 --> 00:27:54,480
I just played with crickets

614
00:27:54,480 --> 00:27:55,320
and arm wrestled.

615
00:27:55,680 --> 00:27:56,980
The sun and moon can bear witness

616
00:27:57,070 --> 00:27:58,030
to my feelings for you.

617
00:27:58,880 --> 00:27:59,720
I...

618
00:28:02,030 --> 00:28:02,870
I...

619
00:28:13,590 --> 00:28:15,070
I understand your intentions.

620
00:28:16,920 --> 00:28:17,790
But now,

621
00:28:18,270 --> 00:28:19,440
you've your own reputation

622
00:28:19,640 --> 00:28:20,590
this way.

623
00:28:21,590 --> 00:28:22,480
Is it really worth it?

624
00:28:26,000 --> 00:28:26,920
To be called a hero

625
00:28:27,550 --> 00:28:28,400
may look glorious,

626
00:28:29,600 --> 00:28:30,440
but behind it are

627
00:28:30,450 --> 00:28:31,920
countless daggers aimed at my back.

628
00:28:33,030 --> 00:28:34,270
When the Emperor needs me,

629
00:28:35,400 --> 00:28:36,400
I'm the anchor

630
00:28:36,400 --> 00:28:37,340
that steadies the realm.

631
00:28:37,680 --> 00:28:38,880
When he grows tired of me,

632
00:28:39,720 --> 00:28:41,030
I become a threat to the throne.

633
00:28:45,110 --> 00:28:46,630
I might as well refuse to climb higher

634
00:28:47,510 --> 00:28:48,480
before someone decides

635
00:28:48,480 --> 00:28:49,320
to pull me down.

636
00:28:51,160 --> 00:28:52,830
What a surprise that you've learned

637
00:28:53,310 --> 00:28:54,370
to read the Emperor's mind

638
00:28:54,680 --> 00:28:56,240
after the battle of Qingzhou.

639
00:28:56,680 --> 00:28:58,000
I've always been clever.

640
00:28:58,400 --> 00:29:00,030
But I wish you'd never had to learn.

641
00:29:18,440 --> 00:29:19,280
I have to learn,

642
00:29:22,200 --> 00:29:23,640
so I can keep our family safe

643
00:29:25,510 --> 00:29:26,350
and protect you.

644
00:29:30,960 --> 00:29:31,800
All right.

645
00:29:32,070 --> 00:29:33,010
I've received your gift.

646
00:29:33,590 --> 00:29:34,880
It's late; go back now.

647
00:29:35,070 --> 00:29:36,000
You can't be seen.

648
00:29:39,310 --> 00:29:40,150
I...

649
00:29:57,790 --> 00:29:58,750
Turn around.

650
00:31:23,030 --> 00:31:23,870
Father.

651
00:31:26,450 --> 00:31:27,310
Father.

652
00:31:27,310 --> 00:31:28,150
Father, you're here.

653
00:31:30,270 --> 00:31:31,880
Is that how you review memorials?

654
00:31:34,070 --> 00:31:35,310
Father, I was wrong.

655
00:31:41,280 --> 00:31:43,250
(From Wang Jingzhi:
We've won against North Qi.)

656
00:31:43,260 --> 00:31:44,460
(Please disband the troops.)

657
00:31:44,470 --> 00:31:45,580
(Utter nonsense!)

658
00:31:46,750 --> 00:31:47,590
Father,

659
00:31:48,030 --> 00:31:48,870
I...

660
00:31:49,550 --> 00:31:50,590
I just think

661
00:31:51,070 --> 00:31:53,000
the Duke of Ning's proposal
is ill-timed.

662
00:31:54,070 --> 00:31:55,750
We've just won a great battle.

663
00:31:56,110 --> 00:31:57,510
If we disband the army now,

664
00:31:57,920 --> 00:31:59,510
wouldn't that chill their hearts?

665
00:32:04,440 --> 00:32:05,590
You're right.

666
00:32:06,670 --> 00:32:07,550
Father,

667
00:32:07,550 --> 00:32:08,390
the Governor of Jinxi

668
00:32:10,750 --> 00:32:13,070
also keeps submitting memorials

669
00:32:13,200 --> 00:32:14,780
to express his longing

670
00:32:14,960 --> 00:32:16,160
to see you.

671
00:32:17,000 --> 00:32:18,300
But I think

672
00:32:18,880 --> 00:32:20,240
he's trying to make you

673
00:32:20,440 --> 00:32:21,920
transfer him back to Huajing.

674
00:32:22,750 --> 00:32:23,960
The war has just ended.

675
00:32:24,160 --> 00:32:25,990
Now's the crucial time
for rebuilding Jinxi.

676
00:32:29,000 --> 00:32:29,840
Also,

677
00:32:34,550 --> 00:32:36,720
Wei Yun went to a brothel.

678
00:32:37,880 --> 00:32:38,960
Utter nonsense!

679
00:32:41,270 --> 00:32:43,480
That's what's written here.

680
00:32:45,380 --> 00:32:47,340
(Wei Yun has grown bold,
frequenting brothels.)

681
00:32:47,340 --> 00:32:48,500
(He's unworthy of your favor.)

682
00:32:48,500 --> 00:32:49,620
(Please punish him severely.)

683
00:32:55,510 --> 00:32:56,400
As expected.

684
00:32:57,590 --> 00:32:58,680
I knew it.

685
00:32:59,880 --> 00:33:00,960
He always goes

686
00:33:01,590 --> 00:33:02,720
against my will.

687
00:33:03,110 --> 00:33:04,200
I grant Chu Yu a title,

688
00:33:04,550 --> 00:33:05,580
and he runs to a brothel.

689
00:33:06,160 --> 00:33:07,000
I offer him honors,

690
00:33:07,480 --> 00:33:08,920
(Memorial)
and he rejects them all!

691
00:33:09,070 --> 00:33:10,030
Father,

692
00:33:10,030 --> 00:33:11,510
calm down; don't harm your health.

693
00:33:13,200 --> 00:33:15,000
Wei Yun is always defiant,

694
00:33:15,550 --> 00:33:17,310
but we're close.

695
00:33:17,830 --> 00:33:19,310
How about I go talk to him?

696
00:33:21,270 --> 00:33:22,110
Huan,

697
00:33:23,070 --> 00:33:24,000
I just want

698
00:33:24,480 --> 00:33:25,680
to leave you

699
00:33:25,680 --> 00:33:27,480
some truly capable men.

700
00:33:29,030 --> 00:33:31,000
But when you do this to them,

701
00:33:31,000 --> 00:33:32,040
will they still serve me?

702
00:33:34,440 --> 00:33:36,270
I understand your intent.

703
00:33:36,270 --> 00:33:37,400
I'll carry out your will.

704
00:33:41,820 --> 00:33:43,700
(Fragrance House)

705
00:33:43,720 --> 00:33:44,640
Mr. Huang, you're here.

706
00:33:45,790 --> 00:33:46,750
Long time no see!

707
00:33:51,590 --> 00:33:52,510
Wei Yun,

708
00:33:52,750 --> 00:33:54,480
you really like it here, huh?

709
00:33:57,480 --> 00:33:58,720
I've found the dog

710
00:33:59,200 --> 00:34:00,070
as you asked.

711
00:34:01,830 --> 00:34:02,680
Xiaoqi!

712
00:34:03,960 --> 00:34:04,800
Xiaoqi?

713
00:34:05,680 --> 00:34:06,520
Is that its name?

714
00:34:08,320 --> 00:34:09,320
Don't. Go away.

715
00:34:09,880 --> 00:34:11,510
Stay away from me.

716
00:34:15,510 --> 00:34:16,350
Xiaoqi.

717
00:34:17,590 --> 00:34:18,670
You always look

718
00:34:18,670 --> 00:34:20,920
so mature and calm.

719
00:34:21,320 --> 00:34:22,510
Why do you panic

720
00:34:22,510 --> 00:34:23,590
at seeing a dog?

721
00:34:24,000 --> 00:34:24,840
I...

722
00:34:26,280 --> 00:34:27,120
It's fine.

723
00:34:27,440 --> 00:34:29,550
Let me smooth your fur.

724
00:34:29,550 --> 00:34:31,800
There, there. Nothing to be afraid of.

725
00:34:31,800 --> 00:34:33,110
From now on, I'll protect you.

726
00:34:34,150 --> 00:34:35,280
Lu Qiba!

727
00:34:36,360 --> 00:34:37,200
What?

728
00:34:37,920 --> 00:34:38,880
I'm not talking

729
00:34:38,880 --> 00:34:40,000
to you.

730
00:34:42,000 --> 00:34:42,840
You...

731
00:34:43,960 --> 00:34:44,800
Enough.

732
00:34:45,550 --> 00:34:47,110
If you're afraid of dogs,

733
00:34:47,320 --> 00:34:48,510
why keep one?

734
00:34:49,360 --> 00:34:50,460
That cricket from yesterday

735
00:34:50,460 --> 00:34:51,300
suits you more.

736
00:34:53,590 --> 00:34:54,800
This dog belongs to Ms. Chu.

737
00:35:01,960 --> 00:35:03,150
No wonder.

738
00:35:03,880 --> 00:35:05,400
You should suffer more

739
00:35:05,710 --> 00:35:06,800
in love.

740
00:35:07,510 --> 00:35:08,350
Young Marquis Wei,

741
00:35:09,960 --> 00:35:11,800
enjoy your misery.

742
00:35:11,800 --> 00:35:12,760
Let's go, Wei Qiu.

743
00:35:12,920 --> 00:35:14,230
I've got a beautiful girl.

744
00:35:14,230 --> 00:35:15,110
Hey, you...

745
00:35:16,270 --> 00:35:17,110
- Let's go.
- I...

746
00:35:17,110 --> 00:35:18,320
Come on, let's go.

747
00:35:25,110 --> 00:35:25,950
I...

748
00:35:58,840 --> 00:35:59,680
Come on.

749
00:35:59,680 --> 00:36:01,190
(Knowledgeable and Optimistic)

750
00:36:01,190 --> 00:36:02,550
- Hurry!
- Get ready.

751
00:36:02,880 --> 00:36:03,720
So dirty.

752
00:36:04,570 --> 00:36:06,280
- Impressive!
- How can I give you to Yu?

753
00:36:06,920 --> 00:36:07,990
- Don't bite me.
- Again!

754
00:36:11,880 --> 00:36:13,320
You kicked it so high!

755
00:36:13,710 --> 00:36:14,550
Yu.

756
00:36:21,280 --> 00:36:22,230
Xiaoqi.

757
00:36:23,630 --> 00:36:24,470
Xiaoqi.

758
00:36:25,630 --> 00:36:26,840
Is it really you, Xiaoqi?

759
00:36:27,920 --> 00:36:29,230
Xiaoqi, is it really you?

760
00:36:30,670 --> 00:36:31,840
How did you get so dirty?

761
00:36:31,840 --> 00:36:32,680
Xiaoqi,

762
00:36:33,150 --> 00:36:34,760
why did you sneak out?

763
00:36:34,920 --> 00:36:36,360
Do you know how worried I was?

764
00:36:36,550 --> 00:36:37,550
If you sneak out again,

765
00:36:37,550 --> 00:36:38,670
I'll spank you!

766
00:36:38,670 --> 00:36:39,510
Do you hear me?

767
00:36:41,070 --> 00:36:42,200
You must've suffered a lot.

768
00:36:42,510 --> 00:36:43,350
No.

769
00:36:43,620 --> 00:36:44,480
I have to ask Lu Qiba

770
00:36:44,480 --> 00:36:45,320
to make a wooden tag,

771
00:36:45,710 --> 00:36:48,550
saying, "Dog in the Wei Mansion;"

772
00:36:48,550 --> 00:36:50,110
"handsome reward for return."

773
00:36:50,710 --> 00:36:52,510
That way, you won't get lost again,

774
00:36:52,510 --> 00:36:53,360
right?

775
00:36:56,190 --> 00:36:57,480
I knew you'd say that.

776
00:36:57,710 --> 00:36:59,070
It's already done. Here.

777
00:37:03,000 --> 00:37:04,630
Dog in the Wei Mansion.

778
00:37:06,230 --> 00:37:07,230
Reward for return.

779
00:37:10,590 --> 00:37:11,480
You're the one...

780
00:37:11,630 --> 00:37:12,670
Who understands you best.

781
00:37:16,710 --> 00:37:17,670
Come on, wear it.

782
00:37:24,070 --> 00:37:25,400
Where are you going?

783
00:37:25,840 --> 00:37:26,680
Come back.

784
00:37:27,670 --> 00:37:29,550
With this on, you won't get lost.

785
00:37:30,000 --> 00:37:30,840
Be good.

786
00:37:33,360 --> 00:37:34,960
You won't get lost again.

787
00:37:35,280 --> 00:37:36,230
Be good.

788
00:37:38,070 --> 00:37:38,910
Done.

789
00:37:39,440 --> 00:37:40,800
Does it look good?

790
00:37:44,880 --> 00:37:45,720
Be good.

791
00:37:49,590 --> 00:37:50,430
Yu.

792
00:37:51,880 --> 00:37:52,820
You once said you wanted

793
00:37:53,480 --> 00:37:55,600
to find a place surrounded
by mountains and rivers,

794
00:37:55,670 --> 00:37:56,840
where spring lasts all year,

795
00:37:57,440 --> 00:37:58,760
to live freely and happily.

796
00:38:01,360 --> 00:38:02,480
You value responsibility.

797
00:38:03,320 --> 00:38:04,160
When you leave,

798
00:38:04,960 --> 00:38:06,360
the world will be at peace,

799
00:38:08,360 --> 00:38:09,560
and I'll have no attachments.

800
00:38:10,550 --> 00:38:11,510
Wherever you wish to go,

801
00:38:12,480 --> 00:38:13,320
I'll go with you.

802
00:38:17,480 --> 00:38:19,550
Don't forget to bring Xiaoqi.

803
00:38:22,150 --> 00:38:23,380
We'll bring this Xiaoqi along.

804
00:38:26,190 --> 00:38:27,030
This one.

805
00:38:40,220 --> 00:38:41,620
(Defend the Nation and the Throne)

806
00:38:41,630 --> 00:38:42,960
My great general.

807
00:38:42,990 --> 00:38:45,510
(Marquis of Zhenguo Slays Su Can)
Do you know what this means?

808
00:38:46,400 --> 00:38:47,240
The portrait is torn.

809
00:38:47,400 --> 00:38:48,240
Come on.

810
00:38:49,590 --> 00:38:50,760
Ms. Chu, you tell him.

811
00:38:52,150 --> 00:38:53,110
This portrait

812
00:38:53,110 --> 00:38:54,920
can no longer be hung
at the gate pillars.

813
00:38:54,920 --> 00:38:55,760
You...

814
00:38:56,710 --> 00:38:57,800
You're wrong!

815
00:38:58,710 --> 00:38:59,920
It means

816
00:39:00,070 --> 00:39:01,420
the people have lost faith in you.

817
00:39:01,480 --> 00:39:03,320
It means you're not
the God of War anymore.

818
00:39:03,630 --> 00:39:05,030
Why would you debase yourself,

819
00:39:05,190 --> 00:39:06,800
frequenting such a wonderful place...

820
00:39:10,280 --> 00:39:11,800
an indecent place

821
00:39:12,070 --> 00:39:13,190
and staying out so late?

822
00:39:13,440 --> 00:39:14,590
Thank you for your concern.

823
00:39:15,440 --> 00:39:16,500
But when did I ever admit

824
00:39:16,500 --> 00:39:17,340
I was the God of War?

825
00:39:17,630 --> 00:39:18,550
Besides,

826
00:39:19,070 --> 00:39:20,330
the God of War the Emperor wants

827
00:39:20,330 --> 00:39:21,440
is one without emotions.

828
00:39:22,710 --> 00:39:24,550
But without emotions,
how could I understand

829
00:39:26,480 --> 00:39:27,440
the people?

830
00:39:30,880 --> 00:39:31,720
Fine.

831
00:39:31,920 --> 00:39:33,360
You can say that to me.

832
00:39:33,630 --> 00:39:34,830
Don't go repeating it outside.

833
00:39:35,630 --> 00:39:36,570
I'll be honest with you.

834
00:39:36,920 --> 00:39:38,000
I actually think you two

835
00:39:38,000 --> 00:39:38,840
are a perfect match.

836
00:39:39,440 --> 00:39:40,320
But Father is

837
00:39:40,320 --> 00:39:41,440
deeply displeased with you.

838
00:39:41,710 --> 00:39:42,550
I can't change that,

839
00:39:42,550 --> 00:39:43,510
so I'm here to warn you.

840
00:39:44,630 --> 00:39:45,480
Why must you

841
00:39:45,490 --> 00:39:46,480
keep opposing him?

842
00:39:46,630 --> 00:39:48,510
You're slapping his face.

843
00:39:49,190 --> 00:39:50,190
If he gets angry,

844
00:39:50,670 --> 00:39:51,960
can you bear the consequences?

845
00:39:52,150 --> 00:39:52,990
Aren't you afraid...

846
00:39:55,550 --> 00:39:57,400
Aren't you afraid he'll cast you aside

847
00:39:57,400 --> 00:39:58,240
in fury?

848
00:39:59,510 --> 00:40:00,350
I heard

849
00:40:00,960 --> 00:40:02,110
Mr. Song

850
00:40:02,360 --> 00:40:04,030
is fierce and bold in battle

851
00:40:04,480 --> 00:40:05,920
as if he has nine lives.

852
00:40:05,920 --> 00:40:07,000
Thank you for the warning.

853
00:40:07,070 --> 00:40:07,920
But I know

854
00:40:08,630 --> 00:40:09,630
I've done my utmost.

855
00:40:10,070 --> 00:40:11,000
If anyone questions me,

856
00:40:11,280 --> 00:40:12,360
I can say without guilt

857
00:40:13,190 --> 00:40:14,370
that my conscience is clear.

858
00:40:15,030 --> 00:40:16,320
If the Emperor abandons me

859
00:40:16,550 --> 00:40:17,390
and despises me,

860
00:40:17,630 --> 00:40:19,060
as long as I can still lead troops,

861
00:40:19,240 --> 00:40:20,750
I don't mind being an ordinary soldier.

862
00:40:21,110 --> 00:40:22,710
- I...
- I truly don't care

863
00:40:23,280 --> 00:40:24,630
about the title of the God of War.

864
00:40:25,150 --> 00:40:26,550
Whoever wants it can have it.

865
00:40:26,550 --> 00:40:27,390
You...

866
00:40:28,760 --> 00:40:30,230
Come on, man.

867
00:40:30,230 --> 00:40:31,360
I've said everything I can,

868
00:40:31,550 --> 00:40:32,800
but you just don't listen.

869
00:40:34,510 --> 00:40:35,350
You...

870
00:40:36,030 --> 00:40:36,870
Why's this so sweet?

871
00:40:37,320 --> 00:40:38,360
I don't like this.

872
00:40:39,190 --> 00:40:40,590
Someone does.

873
00:40:57,880 --> 00:40:59,280
Now, the Crown Prince

874
00:40:59,280 --> 00:41:00,800
(True Might)

875
00:41:00,800 --> 00:41:01,800
finally shows

876
00:41:01,800 --> 00:41:02,910
the makings of a true heir.

877
00:41:03,400 --> 00:41:04,540
When the nation is in peril,

878
00:41:04,920 --> 00:41:06,120
one must rise to the challenge

879
00:41:06,150 --> 00:41:07,070
and bear the burden.

880
00:41:08,510 --> 00:41:10,360
Didn't you grow up that way, too?

881
00:41:11,030 --> 00:41:12,320
He's even a year younger than me.

882
00:41:15,320 --> 00:41:16,400
But in my heart,

883
00:41:16,550 --> 00:41:18,150
you're always the best.

884
00:41:19,150 --> 00:41:20,130
Do you really think so?

885
00:41:21,030 --> 00:41:21,870
Of course.

886
00:41:22,400 --> 00:41:23,240
What do you think...

887
00:41:24,360 --> 00:41:25,400
Whatever you ask,

888
00:41:25,400 --> 00:41:26,840
my answer will always be:

889
00:41:27,070 --> 00:41:27,910
"Yes, of course."

890
00:41:28,280 --> 00:41:29,550
"You're always the best."

891
00:41:36,000 --> 00:41:37,280
A spy from North Qi reports

892
00:41:38,000 --> 00:41:38,960
that Zhao Yue

893
00:41:38,960 --> 00:41:40,410
treats the Eldest Princess very well.

894
00:41:40,550 --> 00:41:42,380
He built her a palace
and gave her treasures.

895
00:41:44,400 --> 00:41:45,240
Where's the letter?

896
00:41:46,230 --> 00:41:47,070
Let me see it.

897
00:41:50,880 --> 00:41:51,800
This letter

898
00:41:51,800 --> 00:41:53,590
is confidential from the Arsenal Bureau.

899
00:41:54,440 --> 00:41:55,380
If you want to read it,

900
00:41:55,670 --> 00:41:56,850
offer something in exchange.

901
00:42:39,660 --> 00:42:42,380
(To the Marquis of Zhenguo)

902
00:42:42,390 --> 00:42:44,510
Zhao Yue is about to ascend
the throne in North Qi.

903
00:42:49,880 --> 00:42:51,370
Yunyang dislikes the Eldest Princess,

904
00:42:51,880 --> 00:42:53,140
but with Zhao Yue's protection,

905
00:42:53,190 --> 00:42:54,150
she has no choice.

906
00:42:55,760 --> 00:42:56,760
The spy said

907
00:42:57,070 --> 00:42:58,320
they'll take good care of her.

908
00:42:58,630 --> 00:42:59,730
The Eldest Princess's temper

909
00:42:59,920 --> 00:43:01,250
isn't something anyone can handle.

910
00:43:03,670 --> 00:43:04,510
Wei Yun,

911
00:43:04,960 --> 00:43:06,330
she's done her best for Great Sui.

912
00:43:06,710 --> 00:43:07,960
We must bring her back safely.

913
00:43:14,680 --> 00:43:15,820
The weather is lovely today.

914
00:43:17,000 --> 00:43:18,320
How about we take Xiaoqi out

915
00:43:18,320 --> 00:43:19,320
for a stroll someday?

916
00:43:20,840 --> 00:43:21,680
Sure.

917
00:43:26,190 --> 00:43:29,110
The spring of Great Sui
has finally arrived.

918
00:43:31,480 --> 00:43:32,360
Winter has passed;

919
00:43:34,030 --> 00:43:35,070
