Song: 雲天外 - 陸毅 Beyond the Clouds

♫ The sea of bitterness knows no borders. Turn around; there’s the shore. ♫

♫ I don’t dare to turn around, afraid that you will scatter and leave. ♫

♫ Tumbling in the mortal world, going around in circles. ♫

♫ In my eyes, I only have you, looking towards me. ♫

♫ Let me finish telling you about my love. ♫

♫ Let my heart call out loudly. ♫

♫ I will even entangle myself in six levels of reincarnation. ♫

♫ I will never let you feel lost all alone. ♫

♫ My love endures, too quickly. In a moment, I am beyond the clouds and the sky. ♫

♫ Don’t throw it away so easily. Do not fret over whether it is good or bad. ♫

♫ Your love is what I depend upon, without you, this world is pale ♫

♫ Even if it all turns into dust, at least I want to be with you through life and death.♫

Love Yunge From the Desert

Episode 26

Bing Yi, let's eat, quickly pack up.

What are you reading? So serious, I call you and there's no reaction.

I realized that the control on the officials is not very good.

I want to ask Your Majesty to help me do some more changes.

You don't need to wait for me, eat with Hu Er first.

The Imperial Decree has arrived!

Master Liu to receive the decree.

The Decree of the Han Dynasty Emperor:The Witchcraft Crime has affected a lot of individuals and has already passed for many years.

I have always felt uneasy about it. The direct grandson of the late Emperor Liu Xun has been left alone outside the Palace for more than 10 years.

From the late Emperor's wish before his death, he's removed from all his crimes and will be given the title Yang Wu Hou. That's all.

I am accepting the decree.

Congratulations, Master Liu!

Thank you. If there is nothing else, I will leave first.

Thank you for your troubles.

Bing Yi, your hardships have finally paid off.

Dad, Mom, Older Brother, I'm sorry

I went through a lot to finally be with Brother Lin.

I have decided to stay in Chang An with him.

Please don't worry about me

Brother Lin currently cannot just leave Chang-an.

But someday, we will visit you guys together.

Yun Ge

Welcome...Master Li, Boss Zhao, welcome inside.

You've worked hard.

Congratulations, congratulations. Mom, why don't you rest a little?

It's my first to see so many stuffs in my lifetime.

Daughter, you really married a good son-in-law.

Didn't you previously said that I am bewitched to agree to marry him?

You girl...when did I say that?

I only said that you're fated to marry a lucky guy.You will definitely find a good guy.

Bing Yi, isn't it?

Mother-in-law said it right.

Bing Yi and Ping Jun most likely have a lot of things to do.

So you should stop causing trouble here.

I know old man.

Mom is tired from carrying Hu Er

Dad, why don't you go rest with mom?

Please

Smile a little

I never thought that I will achieve this.When I walk in the streets previously, who recognizes me?

Bing Yi, the hard days are over now.

So it means that you and Hu Er are my lucky charms.

I promise you, I won't like you and Hu Er experience hard times again.

We won't be looked down by other anymore.

Hou Ye, Miss Yun Ge is here.

- Yun Ge, you're here.- Congratulations Hou Ye and wife!

You've transferred to your new home but never remembered to call me to celebrate.

This mansion is given by Your Majesty and also Bing Yi's new name.

- Come, Yun Ge, come inside.- Wait...

I've already practiced your name many times.

I want to let Yun Ge see it.

Sister, you wrote it very well.

Sister, you finally will be able to live your days well.

And also Brother can definitely show all his skills.

If good people doesn't get out of a predicament,then won't there be no more Heaven?

Yun Ge, go and have a good chat with Ping Jun.

I still have some invitations to take care of.

Sister, where is Hu Er?

My mom took him to rest.

Yun Ge, when do you plan on marrying the emperor?

If you can bear a prince, your status will be better and you won't be bullied anymore in the Palace.

But recently, Huo Guang connived with the other ministers and is constantly troubling Brother Lin about this.

I think that marriage and child problems are what makes his head aches the most.

Listen, now that you are at the emperor's side, he needs to give you a title.

Sister knows that you don't care but you need to think about your future children.

Let's talk about the future later.

Right now I just want to be with Ling Gege

But Sister, you don't need to talk anymore

That time, didn't Brother Liu also don't have anything?

You didn't care about anything and still chose to be with him that's why you two have this good marriage fate.

And also, I believe that Brother Lin can give me a future.

That's right

The way Your Majesty treats you,he will definitely allow you to suffer.

Just remember, you have family in Chang An

I and BIng Yi are your family

I know

It's rare that you can go out of the Palace.Why not stay for dinner?

I can't today. I need to see Hong Yi today.

I want to thank her for the incense powder he asked Liu He to give me.

Talking about Liu He...

He has a very loud character.

But whenever it's about Hong Yi, he is quite meticulous.

How did they meet?

At that time I heard Meng

I heard Meng Jue say that they knew each other from when they were young

But whenever I ask them about their childhood,he always doesn't answer them.

I'll ask Hong Yi about it later.

So they knew each other since they were young

No wonder their relationship is very different from others.

Just like you and Brother Liu.

Also like you and your Brother Liu.

It's time to make a decision

Customer, what do you want to order?

Give me 1 order of wine.

Sister Yun, are you alright?

It's you

I didn't think that your martial arts skill is good.

My skill is way better than just this.

- Are you alright? Were you hurt?- I'm alright Sister Hong Yi. I was just about to look for you.

I didn't think I'd see you here

Since your carriage is damaged,just ride with Hong Yi and she'll take you back.

You can chat on the way.

Oh...she cannot chat...

Then the two of you just move your eyebrows towards each other.

Xiao Jue, why are you here?

Brother, I saw someone earlier selling these.

So I bought some home to let you taste them.

What is it?

Millet biscuits

Do you remember what happened the first time we saw this?

Of course I remember

It was the day you, I, and Hong Yi first met.

And I also hit you.

- How much is this?- 1 wen, 1 piece. It's very delicious.

Give me one?

Pick any you like.

- It's delicious.- Master!...Don't run...

- Don't follow me. If you keep on following him, how can I go in the brothel.- Master, wait for us...

I already told you two not to follow me.

Don't you have any eyes?You caused me to drop my Millet biscuits!

So just pick it up? Are you sick?

Master...

Master, wait!Master...

You were the one who didn't want this.

Look how I finish you. I'll hit you to death!...You dare run away?!

Will you still run?

Run away again?If you dare to run again, I'll hit you to death.

I let you run!...

Look if I don't hit you to death.

You made me lose money and you dare run away?!

Stop it

Brat, I spent money to buy her.

I'll hit her if I like, it's none of your business. Stop it

I just want to sell myself to bury my father but you never told me that I'm working on a brothel.

You dare talk back. Watch me hit you.

- I'll hit you death.- I'll buy her.

You're going to buy her?

Money, give me money.

Is this enough?

Why didn't you say you had money?

Young master That money bag is mine!

I was looking for it all day

Give me back my money

Why do you say this money bag is yours?

The bag has my name inside. It's Liu, look.

I am the Duke of Chang Yi, Liu He.

Duke of Chang Yi...

- Look- Greetings, Duke of Chang Yi

So what if you're the Duke of Chang Yi?

I still won't give it to you.

Xiao mei mei is pretty

what is your name?

I am Hong Yi

You're called Hong Yi but why are you not wearing red dress?(Hong Yi literally means Red Dress)

From now on, you're my servant maid.

Wait for me to fetch you, okay?

You, keep kneeling

Enough, let's go.Let's look for a place.

That area. Come...I must teach you some lessons.

You are quite good.

What's your name?

I am called Meng Jue.

Presently,

people who can fight with me on equal footing is very few.

From now on, you are my little brother.

Catch this.

But my mother thought that Hong Yi is someone's spy and caused her to be mute.

Good thing you asked me to act insane and stupid.

It saved Hong Yi and also stopped my mother's dream for me to become the Emperor.

Even though I never accomplished anything these years,I still want to thank you

for letting me become a Duke of Chang Yi that women are reluctant to leave.

I know that you have big ambitions but is constantly being controlled by your mother.

So I advised you to act insane and stupid

to wait for the right time.

Now you can do what you want to do already.

So I say

that the best thing I did in my life

other than saving Hong Yi is to be your brother.

Will Big Brother right now

still listen to my advice?

Of course.

I hope Big Brother will not use Yun Ge.

I know that Yun Ge is Liu Fu Lin's woman.

Getting near her will give you an advantage.

But I still hope that Big Brother will not do this.

Yun Ge is very naive.She is not like us.

And also she doesn't have anything to do with what our goal is.

Then it's settled then.

Then thank you, Big Brother.

Eat some biscuits.

I have been lazy recently.It's been long ago since I wrote something in my food diary.

But why did you transferred the table to your bed?

Previously during the winter,I loved staying in bed reading books and writing.

If not because my mom will no permit it,

I will even look for Azhu and we'll eat snacks while chatting on the bed.

Who is Azhu?

Azhu is a very close friend of mine.We grew up together.

I really miss her.

Mo Cha, get some snacks.

Yes.

Say it.What else do you want to do?

Come, Brother Lin.Lie with me.

Come. Let's make the table as our border.Each one lying on one side.

Do you know that I have a weird ambition when I was little?

I hope that the roof is transparent.

Then we can see a sky full of stars.

During daytime, we can also see the clouds floating by.

So beautiful.

This is something that's possible.I read in an ancient book once about burning glass skill.

You can totally make a fully see through roof.

Why are you sighing?

When I was little, I was always thinking that when I grow up, I will travel the world.

To discover the most beautiful, the best places.

I now know that any place with you in it

is the most beautiful, the best place.I don't want to go anywhere anymore.

Then will you still tell me stories in the future?

I will.

- Brewing tea?- I will.

- Still bitter?- Not bitter anymore.

Will you still play the flute for me?

- I will.- Sing?

You should be the one who sings.

Still the same when you were little.Sleeping in the middle of talking.

Miss Yun has fallen asleep.

Since she had the incense,her sleep has been good.

Ask someone to remove the table.

Remember not to wake her up.

Yes.

Your Majesty, what's wrong?

Should I call for the Imperial Doctor?

No need.

Maybe I'm just too tired recently.

Soon

it will be Your Majesty's 12th year Crowning Anniversary.

I deliberately look for experts in Chang Yi to make Your Majesty

this cornelian (a type of mineral) screen.

Wishing Your Majesty good health and to be able to make another peak era in the Han dynasty.

The Heaven sees what the people sees.

Following good is not enough to rule.Following the law is not enough by itself.

You used the ancient world's knowledge to answer my question to you regarding your governing principle.

Your Majesty is brilliant.

I cannot really hide my thoughts from Your Majesty.

This is what's famous in the commoner's world called 100 Houses' Cloth.

It's a celebratory cloth jointly sewed by 100 women from different families in Chang-an.

It's to thank Your Majesty's grace and to wish our Han dynasty favorable harvest weather and prosperous fate.

The writing strokes are firm and forceful while the sewing is impeccable.

This was done by my wife based on the words I wrote.

The citizens are the backbone of the empire.Both of you understood the importance of the citizens.

I am deeply delighted.

The presents from you both are well thought of and have deep meanings. I treasure them both.

Your subject thanks Your Majesty's praise.

Da Xi Ma is requesting an audience.

Your subject greets Your Majesty.

Da Xi Ma may spare the formalities.

Da Xi Ma, I previously ordered you to watch closely the events in the border. So what's the state now?

I am here today because of it.

The leader of the border tribes has died few days ago.

The princes are currently fighting each other for the throne.

Prince Ke Er Da Da has written us a letter asking for our help to make him the Ruler.

If he will be successful, he promised to be loyal to us and be under our rule.

- Duke of Chang Yi- I'm here.

This matter concerns the safety and livelihood of our border citizens.

I order you to take an army and go there personally to take care of it.

Your subject accepts the order.

Your Majesty, I still have another important thing to report.

Say it.

There's several months of drought in the Jiang Xi area.

There was no harvest for the year.

The livelihood of the citizens and the tax returns of the government will definitely be greatly affected.

Yan Wu Hou

Your subject is here.

I order you to personally go to the affected areas and investigate the current situation. You must come up with a good solution to solve the citizens' worries.

I obey.

Miss.

Miss Huo, you only practice for half an hour and you're like this.

When I young and learned it from my teacher, I had to practice for half a day.

This is expected.You started late so your bones are already hard.

Why must you suffer this?

Why not change to feather fan dance?Won't that be easier for you?

I want to learn this one.

I must learn all the steps.

Okay then.

I've already taken your money, naturally I will teach you.

The most important thing about the Lotus Steps in the Water dance is that your body form must be light to be able to show its beauty.

Miss, do you know why when you turn, you weren't stable?

Because there's no energy beneath your feet.

If Miss wants to perfect this soon, then please practice tip toeing everyday 1000 times.

Hey!Are you intentionally making fun of our LIttle Miss?

Xiao Su.

Let Miss learn the basic steps well first so that when you start practicing the dance itself, it will be easier.

Okay, one thousand times.

Xiao Su.

Help me count.

Little Miss, rest a little first.Drink some water.

Do you feel better?

Use more power.

You must be very tired these days.

Mother

Cheng Jun, here, drink this.

Thank you, Mother.

These past few days have been hard on you.

My heart really weeps on how tired you are from practicing.

I know that

you are trying to make up on your mistakes.

Mother, I will definitely practice more.

I will not let you and Dad disappoint anymore.

Master

What happened to your feet?

- Dad- Don't move...

It's nothing.It's just me being too anxious

to learn the dance well early so I practiced for an hour more.It's really nothing.

If this road's not passable,

I will help you find another route.

Don't be to anxious anymore.

If you hurt your joints then that's not good anymore.

I know Dad feels sorry for me.

But we really don't have time anymore.

Now that Your Majesty suddenly called the Duke of Chang Yi into Chang-an

and then given title to Liu Xun.We can't guess what Your Majesty is planning.

We can only try to control him instead

by controlling the Inner Palace first.

Right.

Today, Your Majesty called them to the Palace and even given them important tasks.

It's like he is testing their capabilities.

From what I can see, Your Majesty wants to train them

so that they can replace Dad in the future.

This dance of mine must get Your Majesty's attention

and make him not able to forget me anymore.

Sister Yun, I heard that Your Majesty has consecutively received a lot of foreign delegates

and important ministers' gifts.Let's go take a look.

What is this?

This is beautiful.

I heard that it's carefully carved from rare cornelian stone.

This screen was really finely carved.It must be very expensive.

It deserved to be from Big Master.

Sister Yun, come.

I heard the servant maids and eunuchs gossiping that Yan Wu Hou was used to being poor already

that he sewed fragmented cloths together to give to Your Majesty as a present.

Although this isn't some expensive thing, but 100 individuals sewing the 100 Houses' Cloth

brings with it the real blessings of the normal citizens.

So it seems that Yang Wu Hou is really the one who is considerate.

He understands Brother Emperor's thoughts.

Let's look at what's written on it.

Sister Yun, what is it?

My Last Will

Your Highness Empress, you have never eaten anything since lunch.

If you get sick, Your Majesty will blame me for not being able to take care of you well.

Brother Emperor's heart never really has me.He will not mind about these.

Xiao Mei, don't be angry first, okay?

I also don't know about this.Just ask Brother Lin later, okay?

What is it?Who made Xiao Mei angry?

Brother Emperor will take care of it.

This...

Xiao Mei...

Xiao Mei, you...

What is this?

For Brother Emperor to write things like this must have a reason.

Can you tell me?

I never intended to hide it from you.

It's just everything are still in the planning stage.

- When the time is right, I will...- Will what?

Just go like that?

It's not that I want to cling to this throne.

But since it's my responsibility, I cannot refuse it.

I have already been tied to it for 12 years.

I always dream to leave this Palace.

Then how about me?If all of you are gone,

what happens to me?

You are pure and kind.You really are not fit to stay here in a place full of deceptions.

If I will go,

then you can also get your freedom.

Just tell me what you want,

and I will prepare it for you.

What I want?Doesn't Brother Emperor know it ever since?

We have been depending on each other for so many years.

Now that you made such big decision and you never even discussed it with me, how can I endure it?

Xiao Mei, you were always good in understanding other's intentions. Can you just please calm down and...

I don't want to listen to anything right now!

My head aches.

I want to rest already.

Brother Lin

Did you made this decision because of me?

It's not entirely due to you.

Before I met you, I already don't want to be an Emperor.

I hated this throne.

Why?

Because of it, I lost my mother.

I can never sleep soundly every night.

Whenever I close my eyes,I can see my mother's face before she died.

I thought that I will be like this forever.

Until I met you.

When I say you again.

But you have already became an Emperor.

If you give it up because of me,

won't I be condemned by history?

Yun Ge, listen to me.

The descendants of Liu is not just me.

I'm not necessarily the only one who must sit on this throne.

I am not fit to be the Emperor.

I must let someone better than me to have it.

Brother Lin, are you planning to let Liu Xun

or Liu He to sit on this throne?

I'm still testing them.It's too early to say for now.

Then how about Xiao Mei?

I will make the proper arrangements for her.Don't worry about it.

- But..- Yun Ge

On the day we leave the Palace,

we might not live in luxury anymore.

But I hope that from that day on, we can plant vegetables together, travel the world, live a normal usual life.

Okay?

Not asking for luxurious clothes or food,just asking to be by your side for a long time.

I haven't entered the Inner Palace for a long time. I really missed it. Your Lady Highness Empress, how are you?

I am fine thanks to Grandmother's blessings.

But...I feel that Lady Empress, you must be very worried.

Why will Grandmother say that?

Your Majesty has been favoring that girl who came from nowhere.

If am you, I will also be very worried.

Being the Empress, I should help Your Majesty increase the Inner palace and increase the descendants of the Han dynasty.

I shouldn't think about these things.

But Lady Empress is still a woman.

If Grandmother is me,do you have any means to get rid of these worries?

Since a woman who came from nowhere can destabilize the Inner Palace,

then why don't we let other women in

and unite with you

to stabilize the Inner Palace.

But who should I seek?

Your auntie Cheng Jun is a very good choice.

But Your Majesty wouldn't talk about matters about getting new wives, how will auntie get in here?

It's placed properly, right?

Big brother

Xiao Jue, good thing you still know I'm your Big Brother.

Know that I'm going West to do some thing for Your Majesty so you're here to send me off?

I am not here to send you off.

Then you should go back.

I am here to give this to you.

The Meteorite Seal

Can you see it?The Meteorite Seal!

Initially, I also thought of borrowing it from you but I was shy.

I was even thinking if I should just make a fake one but who would have thought that you will bring it to me today.

What can I say?Just 1 word, brother!

Big Brother, this time Your Majesty gave you and Liu Bing Yi important tasks.

It's obvious that he is testing your skills.You must be careful in your actions.

I know.

Since Your Majesty see through my insane act,

I know then that Your Majesty is not easy.

In this Western trip, if I don't do my task well,

then my standing in Your Majesty's heart will surely decrease.

Then you must do all your best to make Your Majesty see you in a different light.

With this and the cooperation of us brothers,

I'm sure I won't lose.

Right?

Hong Yi take good care of Elder Brother and take good care of yourself too.

I need her to take care of mebut do you need me to take care of you?

Let's go...

Master Meng, please wait.

I'm sorry to let Brother Meng come here.

- It's okay.- Please come inside.

Brother Meng

I invited you this time to discuss with you about the water use problem of the dynasty.

You want to discuss with me the task given to you by Your Majesty?

That's right. I went to He Xi a few days ago.The situation there is really bad.

The task given to me this time is really very important. So I think to have one more person to discuss it with will make my chances of doing good better.

What reason do I have to help you?

I never thought about this question?

Then you should think about it well.

But I feel that Brother Meng shouldn't have any reason not to help me too.

Duke of Chang Yi is my sworn brother.Your majesty gave the two of you separate important tasks.

I cannot put him on a disadvantage by helping you, right?

This is indeed an acceptable reason.

So Brother Meng doesn't trust Duke of Chang Yi's skill?

This inciting tactic was really used well.

But it's not enough to convince me.Why not think of another one?

Brother Meng, Your Majesty gave us these tasks

not to give me a chance to show off.

The most important reason is to help solve the citizens' problems.

Once the task is completed.It's not only me who will get something good out of it.

But it's solving hundred thousands citizens' desperate situation.

Brother Meng, since you also wanted to serve the government,so I think

that you also want to do something for the citizens.

Brother Meng, lunch has already been prepared.Join us for lunch.

XIao Hu Er is really sleeping soundly.

Brother Meng, let's eat lunch first.

I'll wait for you answer about the question earlier.

Mo Cha, why is the Empress not coming to play with Miss Yun Ge anymore?

I heard from Cheng Er that since Lady Huo entered the palace and visited her,

whenever she asks Lady Empress if she wants to go to Miss Yun and have a chat,

Lady Empress answers no need.

That's strange.

Lady and Miss Yun were always in good relationship.

Why did it suddenly became like this?

Say, could it be that Lady is distancing from Miss Yun due to Your Majesty?

Xiao Mei will never do that.

Miss Yun

Xiao Mei is indeed unhappy recently due to me.

If she doesn't want to come to us,then we can go to her.

You...

Is Your Highness Lady Empress in there?I made some biscuits for her.

Your Highness Lady Empress is not here.Please go.

Is that how you should speak to Miss Yun?

Just a palace maid, do you still want me to bow to her?

- You...- Mo Cha...

Sister Azi, Miss Yun is looking for Lady Empress to talk about some matters.

You just need to tell us where Lady Empress is.

Fu Yu is bowing to Sister here.

Your Majesty has invited My Lady for a get together.How about I accompany you to look for her.

Thank you, Miss Azi.

Give it to me and you two can go first.

- Yun..- Miss Yun

The wind here is big.Put this on.

Careful not to get cold.

Brother Emperor

No need.I'm not cold.

Brother Emperor

Do you and Sister Yun really have to go?

Then can I ask you to take me with you?

Brother Emperor, in this palace,

you are my only relative.

If you go, then I'll be left alone.

I really don't want to be left here.

Okay.

I promise you.I'll take you with us.

Miss Yun, look.My Lady and Your Majesty are over there.

Miss Yun, the relationship between My Lady and Your Majesty is not something an outsider can interfere, right?

Right?

You said it right.

This way I'm more at ease.

You...what did you say?

I initially was worried that Xiao Mei is angry with me and Brother Lin, hence, she's not visiting me.

But now looking at it, they are okay.

Just like what you said,

their relationship is strong.

No matter what happens, they will be alright.

This way I can be at ease already.

♫ In my starry sky, only a blanket of darkness remains. ♫

♫ Without you by my side, the numerous stars disappear. ♫

♫ Sometimes your retreating figure hides itself; sometimes it appears. ♫

♫ Even breathing seems to be so far away. ♫

♫ Hear no more. Possess no more. I gradually feel your warmth in my hand. ♫

♫ Dare not look, dare not think. Memories have you have become hazy. ♫

♫ The green flowing skirt drifts in the wind. Yet when I extend my hand, nothing. ♫

♫ Tears in the corner of my eyes are among the clouds. Once I reminisce, they follow the wind. ♫
