1
00:01:27,000 --> 00:01:30,920
The Scholar and the Emperor

2
00:01:55,240 --> 00:01:56,840
The Mystic Bird shall never perish.

3
00:01:56,920 --> 00:01:58,480
The Blood Moon shall endure forever.

4
00:01:58,560 --> 00:02:00,880
Welcome home, Princess.

5
00:02:00,960 --> 00:02:01,960
All of you, rise.

6
00:02:23,600 --> 00:02:25,880
I've waited more than ten years.

7
00:02:25,960 --> 00:02:29,880
At last, the Princess has returned.

8
00:02:29,960 --> 00:02:30,920
You are...

9
00:02:32,440 --> 00:02:33,320
the old clan chief?

10
00:02:40,160 --> 00:02:42,640
Are you truly the Princess?

11
00:02:44,920 --> 00:02:47,840
The Princess really has returned!

12
00:02:50,880 --> 00:02:52,280
Of the twelve clan elders,

13
00:02:52,920 --> 00:02:56,920
I alone remain.

14
00:02:57,000 --> 00:03:00,040
To think the Princess still remembers me.

15
00:03:00,120 --> 00:03:02,680
Even if I died now,

16
00:03:03,920 --> 00:03:05,480
my life would have been worthwhile.

17
00:03:18,000 --> 00:03:19,960
Princess, drip your blood
on the clan register,

18
00:03:20,440 --> 00:03:21,520
then cast it into the altar.

19
00:03:22,120 --> 00:03:24,040
Swear before the Mystic Bird

20
00:03:24,120 --> 00:03:25,960
to reclaim our homeland

21
00:03:26,040 --> 00:03:28,600
and console the souls who died in agony.

22
00:03:33,760 --> 00:03:34,920
The Princess has returned!

23
00:03:35,000 --> 00:03:36,920
Reclaim our homeland!

24
00:03:37,000 --> 00:03:38,240
The Princess has returned!

25
00:03:38,320 --> 00:03:39,880
Reclaim our homeland!

26
00:03:39,960 --> 00:03:41,520
The Princess has returned!

27
00:03:41,600 --> 00:03:42,960
Reclaim our homeland!

28
00:03:43,560 --> 00:03:45,000
Ancestors above,

29
00:03:46,400 --> 00:03:49,400
I, your unworthy descendant Murong Yao,

30
00:03:49,960 --> 00:03:51,480
command as Princess:

31
00:03:53,520 --> 00:03:55,160
the Kingdom of Zhongwan

32
00:03:55,240 --> 00:03:56,760
shall never be restored.

33
00:04:01,680 --> 00:04:03,000
Princess!

34
00:04:03,080 --> 00:04:03,920
Princess!

35
00:04:04,520 --> 00:04:06,000
You've destroyed our people's last hope.

36
00:04:06,080 --> 00:04:07,200
If we do not restore Zhongwan,

37
00:04:07,280 --> 00:04:08,360
we betray our ancestors.

38
00:04:08,440 --> 00:04:09,320
The living

39
00:04:09,920 --> 00:04:11,000
matter more than spirit tablets.

40
00:04:11,720 --> 00:04:13,440
I only want to save
the people of Zhongwan.

41
00:04:22,880 --> 00:04:24,240
The Mystic Bird shall never perish.

42
00:04:24,320 --> 00:04:26,760
The Blood Moon shall endure forever.

43
00:04:26,840 --> 00:04:29,720
When my blood soaks this altar,

44
00:04:29,800 --> 00:04:34,400
the Mystic Bird will fully awaken.

45
00:04:34,480 --> 00:04:35,840
The Mystic Bird shall never perish.

46
00:04:35,920 --> 00:04:37,480
The Blood Moon shall endure forever.

47
00:04:37,560 --> 00:04:39,200
I beg the Mystic Bird to open its eyes

48
00:04:39,280 --> 00:04:41,440
and give the Princess
the will to restore Zhongwan.

49
00:04:45,760 --> 00:04:46,680
Princess.

50
00:04:46,760 --> 00:04:48,520
The old clan chief's two sons

51
00:04:48,600 --> 00:04:50,560
both died in battle over ten years ago.

52
00:04:50,640 --> 00:04:52,720
His grandson died while fleeing
on a snowy night.

53
00:04:52,800 --> 00:04:55,000
He wept until he went blind.

54
00:04:55,720 --> 00:04:58,120
All these years, the only thing

55
00:04:58,720 --> 00:05:01,120
He stayed alive for one reason:
to see you one last time.

56
00:05:01,200 --> 00:05:02,880
Because he always believed

57
00:05:02,960 --> 00:05:04,920
you would come back.

58
00:05:14,400 --> 00:05:16,800
These two people
volunteered as sacrifices.

59
00:05:16,880 --> 00:05:18,000
One

60
00:05:18,080 --> 00:05:20,480
lost his son building canals for Daning.

61
00:05:20,560 --> 00:05:21,840
The other

62
00:05:21,920 --> 00:05:24,200
lost his entire family,
buried alive when Zhongwan fell.

63
00:05:26,480 --> 00:05:28,000
My entire Shangguan clan

64
00:05:29,520 --> 00:05:31,760
also died at Daning hands.

65
00:05:34,000 --> 00:05:36,200
Without the hope of restoring Zhongwan,

66
00:05:37,440 --> 00:05:39,000
not one person here

67
00:05:40,360 --> 00:05:42,240
would have survived until today.

68
00:05:55,120 --> 00:05:57,160
Princess, change out of that.

69
00:05:57,720 --> 00:05:58,720
The Princess of Zhongwan

70
00:05:59,280 --> 00:06:01,400
should not wear the robes
of an enemy Empress.

71
00:06:18,640 --> 00:06:20,720
Zhongwan dress suits you better, Princess.

72
00:06:21,640 --> 00:06:23,840
Come. Pay respects to our ancestors.

73
00:06:29,840 --> 00:06:31,160
Ancestors above,

74
00:06:32,560 --> 00:06:34,880
I, your unworthy descendant Murong Yao,

75
00:06:34,960 --> 00:06:36,120
have returned too late.

76
00:06:37,120 --> 00:06:40,280
To let Zhongwan's people live and prosper

77
00:06:40,360 --> 00:06:42,640
is my duty as their Princess.

78
00:06:44,280 --> 00:06:46,000
I will never allow the flames of war

79
00:06:46,080 --> 00:06:47,120
to descend on Zhongwan again.

80
00:06:48,160 --> 00:06:49,000
Princess.

81
00:06:49,480 --> 00:06:51,400
Swear before our ancestors.

82
00:06:51,480 --> 00:06:52,640
Say you will restore Zhongwan

83
00:06:53,240 --> 00:06:54,480
and reclaim our homeland.

84
00:07:00,280 --> 00:07:01,280
Yin Qing.

85
00:07:01,360 --> 00:07:03,280
Isn't letting our people live and prosper

86
00:07:03,920 --> 00:07:05,480
more important than killing
to restore a kingdom?

87
00:07:06,160 --> 00:07:07,840
I've brought all of you home safely.

88
00:07:08,560 --> 00:07:10,240
Now I must follow the path
I believe is right.

89
00:07:10,320 --> 00:07:12,000
What are you going to do?

90
00:07:12,080 --> 00:07:14,120
Daning has abolished
permanent slave status.

91
00:07:15,000 --> 00:07:16,640
The new policy will be implemented.

92
00:07:16,720 --> 00:07:19,560
I will return to Daning
as Zhongwan's Princess

93
00:07:19,640 --> 00:07:21,640
and negotiate peace with its Emperor,

94
00:07:22,480 --> 00:07:24,400
to secure a future for our people.

95
00:07:24,480 --> 00:07:26,760
Do you know what's happening
in the Zhongwan slave camp?

96
00:07:26,840 --> 00:07:28,920
You think a few new policies from Ying Gua

97
00:07:29,000 --> 00:07:31,960
can erase our people's
suffering and humiliation?

98
00:07:32,040 --> 00:07:34,440
Do you know what Daning
has done to Zhongwan?

99
00:07:35,080 --> 00:07:36,440
When Zhongwan is restored,

100
00:07:37,160 --> 00:07:40,360
Daning will repay every debt.

101
00:07:40,440 --> 00:07:41,600
Restoration

102
00:07:42,520 --> 00:07:43,440
is your obsession,

103
00:07:43,520 --> 00:07:44,680
not mine.

104
00:07:45,280 --> 00:07:47,240
I only want to save my people.

105
00:07:47,800 --> 00:07:48,640
Sir.

106
00:07:49,280 --> 00:07:51,640
Perhaps Zhongwan can win peace

107
00:07:52,320 --> 00:07:53,480
without shedding a drop of blood.

108
00:07:56,480 --> 00:07:57,400
Get out.

109
00:08:03,560 --> 00:08:05,400
You are Zhongwan's Princess.

110
00:08:05,480 --> 00:08:07,440
What will it take for you
to come to your senses?

111
00:08:07,520 --> 00:08:09,280
You must restore Zhongwan.

112
00:08:09,360 --> 00:08:10,880
Come. Tell our ancestors

113
00:08:10,960 --> 00:08:12,240
you will restore Zhongwan.

114
00:08:12,320 --> 00:08:13,320
You will restore Zhongwan!

115
00:08:13,400 --> 00:08:14,240
You will restore Zhongwan!

116
00:08:14,320 --> 00:08:17,080
You will restore Zhongwan!

117
00:08:34,400 --> 00:08:35,240
Yao'er.

118
00:08:53,320 --> 00:08:54,680
You're bleeding.

119
00:08:58,360 --> 00:08:59,480
I'll stay with you.

120
00:09:08,360 --> 00:09:09,320
Yin Qing.

121
00:09:09,400 --> 00:09:11,160
-Have you lost your mind?
-I'm not mad.

122
00:09:12,800 --> 00:09:13,920
I am Shangguan Zhao.

123
00:09:14,720 --> 00:09:16,120
I am your Brother Shangguan.

124
00:09:16,200 --> 00:09:17,720
My Brother Shangguan

125
00:09:17,800 --> 00:09:19,640
died more than ten years ago.

126
00:09:20,280 --> 00:09:21,320
The man who lived

127
00:09:21,400 --> 00:09:23,400
was Yin Qing, who gave me the Rain Bell

128
00:09:24,640 --> 00:09:25,920
and told me that even the fiercest storm

129
00:09:26,000 --> 00:09:27,760
would one day pass.

130
00:09:33,160 --> 00:09:35,600
There is no Yin Qing in this world.

131
00:09:36,600 --> 00:09:37,520
To restore Zhongwan,

132
00:09:38,280 --> 00:09:40,880
I could even grovel before Ying Gua.

133
00:09:41,760 --> 00:09:44,360
No one can stop my plan
to restore our kingdom.

134
00:09:50,560 --> 00:09:51,880
Not even you.

135
00:09:57,360 --> 00:09:58,480
Your road

136
00:10:00,080 --> 00:10:02,120
ends in everyone's grave.

137
00:10:02,760 --> 00:10:04,440
The road I seek may be harder,

138
00:10:06,000 --> 00:10:07,800
but it is a road meant for the living.

139
00:10:12,360 --> 00:10:13,440
Guards.

140
00:10:31,680 --> 00:10:32,760
Yao'er.

141
00:10:34,120 --> 00:10:35,440
Once Ying Gua is dead

142
00:10:35,960 --> 00:10:37,480
and Daning's imperial clan destroyed,

143
00:10:38,160 --> 00:10:39,560
we'll play hide-and-seek again,

144
00:10:41,040 --> 00:10:42,400
just like when we were children.

145
00:10:53,320 --> 00:10:54,520
I'll leave the tavern in your hands.

146
00:10:54,600 --> 00:10:55,440
Keep the accounts as usual.

147
00:10:55,520 --> 00:10:56,560
If any important guests ask,

148
00:10:56,640 --> 00:10:57,920
say I've gone out of town
to visit relatives.

149
00:10:59,680 --> 00:11:00,560
Manager Yan.

150
00:11:00,640 --> 00:11:02,160
It's too dangerous to go alone.

151
00:11:04,160 --> 00:11:05,000
Young Lord Shen.

152
00:11:05,080 --> 00:11:06,360
You came at the perfect time.

153
00:11:06,440 --> 00:11:07,640
Please talk some sense into Manager Yan.

154
00:11:07,720 --> 00:11:08,560
Zhaocai.

155
00:11:14,160 --> 00:11:15,040
You're going to find her?

156
00:11:19,520 --> 00:11:21,080
I drew my sword that day for Daning.

157
00:11:21,160 --> 00:11:22,160
If she makes no move to restore Zhongwan,

158
00:11:22,240 --> 00:11:23,920
I will not harm a hair on her head.

159
00:11:24,000 --> 00:11:25,400
And if she does intend to restore it?

160
00:11:25,480 --> 00:11:27,560
If I protect her and stand against you,

161
00:11:27,640 --> 00:11:29,040
will you kill me too?

162
00:11:34,800 --> 00:11:35,960
That day will never come.

163
00:11:38,240 --> 00:11:39,920
If you harm her in the slightest,

164
00:11:40,000 --> 00:11:41,160
I will never forgive you.

165
00:11:41,240 --> 00:11:43,360
I don't care if she's Daning
or Zhongwan.

166
00:11:43,440 --> 00:11:44,560
She's the only person I care about.

167
00:11:45,560 --> 00:11:46,600
I'm going to find her now.

168
00:11:47,480 --> 00:11:48,320
Fuzhi.

169
00:11:49,560 --> 00:11:51,320
His Majesty has decided
to lead the campaign himself.

170
00:11:51,400 --> 00:11:52,240
I'll take you to find her.

171
00:12:09,720 --> 00:12:11,280
Fellow student, you dropped your inkstick.

172
00:12:12,880 --> 00:12:14,160
Thank you, miss.

173
00:12:17,960 --> 00:12:18,960
This pot of Courtyard Fragrance

174
00:12:19,040 --> 00:12:20,480
I grew it myself.

175
00:12:20,560 --> 00:12:21,800
It's for Lord Meng.

176
00:12:21,880 --> 00:12:22,720
Keep it on your desk.

177
00:12:22,800 --> 00:12:24,120
Its scent will calm the mind.

178
00:12:27,920 --> 00:12:29,800
It really is wonderfully fragrant.

179
00:12:32,440 --> 00:12:33,840
On our first day here,

180
00:12:33,920 --> 00:12:35,960
shall we turn this cold, dreary Office

181
00:12:36,040 --> 00:12:38,560
into the capital's most elegant bureau?

182
00:12:38,640 --> 00:12:39,880
All right.

183
00:12:43,600 --> 00:12:44,840
You suffered so much growing up,

184
00:12:45,360 --> 00:12:47,280
yet still placed first
in all three examinations.

185
00:12:47,360 --> 00:12:49,000
I truly admire you.

186
00:12:50,880 --> 00:12:53,280
I don't know how to express what I feel.

187
00:12:55,840 --> 00:12:57,280
I only hope these little things

188
00:12:58,600 --> 00:13:00,520
can warm the cold memories of your past.

189
00:13:07,200 --> 00:13:08,040
Zhili.

190
00:13:08,840 --> 00:13:10,440
Why are your eyes red?

191
00:13:11,560 --> 00:13:12,800
It's all behind you now.

192
00:13:12,880 --> 00:13:14,240
Everything ahead can be new.

193
00:13:23,280 --> 00:13:24,840
If you've found a good man,

194
00:13:25,800 --> 00:13:27,600
perhaps you should give
each other a chance.

195
00:13:30,120 --> 00:13:31,280
He's so good to me.

196
00:13:33,280 --> 00:13:34,480
Sometimes I feel

197
00:13:35,400 --> 00:13:36,560
I've only held him back.

198
00:13:36,640 --> 00:13:37,800
Mengmeng.

199
00:13:38,680 --> 00:13:39,800
Tell me.

200
00:13:39,880 --> 00:13:41,240
Why did I agree

201
00:13:41,320 --> 00:13:43,680
-to this marriage in the first place?
-When pain becomes unbearable,

202
00:13:44,280 --> 00:13:45,880
people always reach for
something to hold on to.

203
00:13:46,760 --> 00:13:48,000
Anian was the lamp in the fog

204
00:13:48,080 --> 00:13:49,880
that showed you the way forward.

205
00:13:49,960 --> 00:13:51,520
You understand each other,

206
00:13:52,120 --> 00:13:54,000
and he can give you the peace you need.

207
00:13:55,640 --> 00:13:57,280
But I do care about him.

208
00:13:57,360 --> 00:13:58,960
I can't bear to see him hurt,

209
00:13:59,040 --> 00:14:00,840
much less see him suffer because of me.

210
00:14:00,920 --> 00:14:02,120
You don't need to feel guilty.

211
00:14:02,200 --> 00:14:04,880
I only hope you can slowly
lower your guard.

212
00:14:05,720 --> 00:14:07,040
Anian is worth it.

213
00:14:20,560 --> 00:14:21,880
This is a farewell drink.

214
00:14:22,880 --> 00:14:23,720
Are you going to stop me?

215
00:14:40,640 --> 00:14:41,600
I trust her.

216
00:14:42,560 --> 00:14:44,080
Though she is a survivor of Zhongwan,

217
00:14:45,280 --> 00:14:46,680
she would never harm Daning.

218
00:14:48,480 --> 00:14:49,320
Anian.

219
00:14:50,520 --> 00:14:52,440
I want to join the campaign with you

220
00:14:52,520 --> 00:14:53,680
and find Mengmeng.

221
00:14:54,760 --> 00:14:55,840
Zhili.

222
00:14:55,920 --> 00:14:57,160
No matter how deep our personal bonds,

223
00:14:57,240 --> 00:14:59,640
we cannot let private feelings
interfere with state affairs.

224
00:14:59,720 --> 00:15:01,400
The front lines are dangerous.

225
00:15:01,960 --> 00:15:04,440
Miss Yan and my brother
will escort supplies,

226
00:15:04,520 --> 00:15:06,200
so they can avoid
the worst of the fighting.

227
00:15:06,280 --> 00:15:07,520
But I

228
00:15:08,080 --> 00:15:09,480
must stand at the very front.

229
00:15:11,320 --> 00:15:12,160
If you come with me,

230
00:15:12,240 --> 00:15:14,080
whenever the beacons are lit,

231
00:15:14,160 --> 00:15:15,920
your safety will be
the first thing on my mind.

232
00:15:16,000 --> 00:15:17,520
I will be distracted.

233
00:15:21,160 --> 00:15:23,120
But I'm truly worried about Mengmeng.

234
00:15:29,320 --> 00:15:30,480
And about you.

235
00:15:37,880 --> 00:15:39,000
Zhili.

236
00:15:39,800 --> 00:15:40,680
Do you...

237
00:15:45,640 --> 00:15:46,920
like me, even a little now?

238
00:16:03,680 --> 00:16:04,560
You said

239
00:16:06,400 --> 00:16:07,840
this peachwood brings good fortune

240
00:16:07,920 --> 00:16:09,640
and keeps its wearer safe.

241
00:16:11,840 --> 00:16:12,800
Wear it.

242
00:16:17,000 --> 00:16:18,400
I want you to come back safely.

243
00:16:21,640 --> 00:16:22,760
I understand.

244
00:16:25,560 --> 00:16:27,680
I leave tomorrow at the Hour of the Tiger.

245
00:16:27,760 --> 00:16:29,680
I won't disturb you tonight.

246
00:16:32,760 --> 00:16:33,760
Anian.

247
00:16:47,000 --> 00:16:47,840
Zhili.

248
00:17:48,520 --> 00:17:49,680
Madam.

249
00:17:49,760 --> 00:17:51,040
Before the Marquis left,

250
00:17:51,120 --> 00:17:52,680
he ordered us to take good care of you.

251
00:17:52,760 --> 00:17:55,280
We heard you cough twice this morning,

252
00:17:55,360 --> 00:17:57,760
and the weather has been turning colder.

253
00:17:58,280 --> 00:18:00,240
The household has prepared
a Cold-Dispelling Formula.

254
00:18:00,320 --> 00:18:01,920
It is excellent for driving out chills
and strengthening the body.

255
00:18:48,560 --> 00:18:49,600
Still trying to escape, Princess?

256
00:18:49,680 --> 00:18:51,320
I'm going to find a way

257
00:18:51,400 --> 00:18:52,480
for the people of Zhongwan to survive.

258
00:18:53,120 --> 00:18:54,880
Mr. Shangguan gave orders:

259
00:18:54,960 --> 00:18:56,440
if the Princess escapes,

260
00:18:56,520 --> 00:18:59,240
every guard and maid assigned to watch you

261
00:18:59,320 --> 00:19:01,040
will be sent to the Zhongwan slave camp.

262
00:19:01,880 --> 00:19:04,360
Bodies are piled
at alley entrances every day.

263
00:19:04,440 --> 00:19:05,600
Some

264
00:19:05,680 --> 00:19:07,640
stole nothing more than half
a stale flatbread,

265
00:19:09,000 --> 00:19:10,360
yet were hung from the camp gate

266
00:19:10,880 --> 00:19:11,720
and strangled to death.

267
00:19:13,320 --> 00:19:14,640
Princess,

268
00:19:15,600 --> 00:19:16,960
please let them live.

269
00:19:17,600 --> 00:19:19,280
If you truly regard me as your Princess,

270
00:19:21,320 --> 00:19:23,200
why is every word I say

271
00:19:23,880 --> 00:19:25,840
worth less than one threat from him?

272
00:19:25,920 --> 00:19:27,680
Since returning to Zhongwan,

273
00:19:29,520 --> 00:19:31,000
I've kept dreaming of Yin Qing.

274
00:19:31,520 --> 00:19:32,840
Back at the Office,

275
00:19:34,480 --> 00:19:36,360
during the three years
he stayed by my side,

276
00:19:38,480 --> 00:19:40,000
he was always smiling,

277
00:19:41,600 --> 00:19:42,720
always joking,

278
00:19:44,760 --> 00:19:46,360
finding new ways to make me laugh.

279
00:19:47,280 --> 00:19:48,840
Every day, he was also the one

280
00:19:48,920 --> 00:19:50,280
who cooked a whole table of dishes,

281
00:19:51,640 --> 00:19:53,840
saying he was rewarding Zhili and me.

282
00:19:53,920 --> 00:19:55,440
Whenever danger came,

283
00:19:56,560 --> 00:19:57,920
he never hesitated

284
00:19:58,000 --> 00:19:59,280
to put himself between us and harm.

285
00:19:59,360 --> 00:20:00,920
How could a man like that

286
00:20:01,000 --> 00:20:04,000
become what he is now?

287
00:20:04,080 --> 00:20:05,320
Princess.

288
00:20:05,400 --> 00:20:07,000
Deep down,

289
00:20:08,160 --> 00:20:10,000
he is a kind man.

290
00:20:14,560 --> 00:20:15,880
You love him.

291
00:20:18,760 --> 00:20:19,960
When Zhongwan fell,

292
00:20:20,480 --> 00:20:22,200
I was sent to Qingzhou as a slave.

293
00:20:23,000 --> 00:20:24,080
That beast of a county magistrate

294
00:20:24,160 --> 00:20:26,120
took me home and forced me
to serve as his household courtesan.

295
00:20:27,120 --> 00:20:28,240
He tormented me day and night.

296
00:20:29,720 --> 00:20:30,560
That life

297
00:20:31,080 --> 00:20:32,960
was even worse than the slave camp.

298
00:20:38,720 --> 00:20:39,880
It was Mr. Shangguan

299
00:20:39,960 --> 00:20:42,120
who saved me when I had lost all hope.

300
00:20:42,200 --> 00:20:43,400
He gave me a new identity

301
00:20:44,480 --> 00:20:46,240
and let me live with dignity again.

302
00:20:47,800 --> 00:20:49,000
Whatever he does,

303
00:20:49,960 --> 00:20:51,240
I will stay beside him

304
00:20:52,720 --> 00:20:53,560
and support him.

305
00:21:04,360 --> 00:21:06,040
Then you have even more reason to help me

306
00:21:08,080 --> 00:21:09,960
stop him from going
further down this path.

307
00:21:12,120 --> 00:21:13,520
I want to see the Zhongwan slave camp.

308
00:21:16,200 --> 00:21:17,120
Take me there.

309
00:21:21,760 --> 00:21:22,720
-Hurry up!
-Stop drinking!

310
00:21:22,800 --> 00:21:23,640
Move!

311
00:21:23,720 --> 00:21:24,720
Get to work! Move!

312
00:21:26,600 --> 00:21:28,520
-Get up!
-Stop slacking!

313
00:21:28,600 --> 00:21:29,640
Move!

314
00:21:29,720 --> 00:21:31,120
-Get up!
-Faster!

315
00:21:31,200 --> 00:21:32,080
I'm talking to you!

316
00:21:32,160 --> 00:21:33,240
Get up!

317
00:21:33,320 --> 00:21:34,160
Are you getting up or not?

318
00:21:34,240 --> 00:21:35,440
Princess.

319
00:21:35,520 --> 00:21:37,120
The Zhongwan slave camp
is heavily guarded.

320
00:21:37,200 --> 00:21:38,600
We can only watch from a distance.

321
00:21:38,680 --> 00:21:40,280
At the Zhongwan slave camp,

322
00:21:40,360 --> 00:21:42,960
they mine ore, build tombs and dig canals.

323
00:21:43,960 --> 00:21:45,600
Wherever there is work that kills men,

324
00:21:46,240 --> 00:21:47,080
our Zhongwan people

325
00:21:47,160 --> 00:21:48,520
are driven there.

326
00:21:49,640 --> 00:21:51,640
It has been more than ten years.

327
00:21:51,720 --> 00:21:53,600
Mr. Shangguan tried bribing officials

328
00:21:53,680 --> 00:21:55,080
and organizing escapes.

329
00:21:56,080 --> 00:21:58,560
But once branded as a Zhongwan slave,

330
00:21:58,640 --> 00:22:00,120
even if you flee to the ends of the earth,

331
00:22:01,160 --> 00:22:02,840
you'll be dragged back and executed.

332
00:22:04,080 --> 00:22:05,320
Princess.

333
00:22:07,720 --> 00:22:09,520
The hope that keeps these people alive

334
00:22:11,520 --> 00:22:13,800
is something only you can give them.

335
00:22:30,960 --> 00:22:31,800
Princess.

336
00:22:32,640 --> 00:22:34,120
Every day we delay,

337
00:22:34,200 --> 00:22:36,120
dozens more Zhongwan bodies are added.

338
00:22:36,760 --> 00:22:38,280
You've seen the slave camp now.

339
00:22:39,080 --> 00:22:40,360
Do you still refuse to restore Zhongwan?

340
00:22:40,920 --> 00:22:42,240
If you can find a way

341
00:22:43,360 --> 00:22:45,280
without spilling a single drop
of Zhongwan blood,

342
00:22:46,560 --> 00:22:48,080
then I will restore our kingdom.

343
00:22:48,960 --> 00:22:50,200
Once you and I marry,

344
00:22:50,720 --> 00:22:52,560
we can draw Beijian into the war

345
00:22:52,640 --> 00:22:54,000
and let them fight at the front.

346
00:23:04,680 --> 00:23:05,560
I agree.

347
00:23:06,760 --> 00:23:08,240
But I have three conditions.

348
00:23:09,080 --> 00:23:10,040
First,

349
00:23:11,040 --> 00:23:13,040
all of Zhongwan will obey my orders,

350
00:23:13,640 --> 00:23:14,520
including you.

351
00:23:14,600 --> 00:23:16,040
Second,

352
00:23:16,120 --> 00:23:17,720
all plans made with Beijian

353
00:23:18,440 --> 00:23:20,160
will be under my direct command.

354
00:23:20,240 --> 00:23:21,360
Third,

355
00:23:22,600 --> 00:23:23,760
from this day forward,

356
00:23:25,240 --> 00:23:27,240
you will never again use anyone

357
00:23:27,320 --> 00:23:28,800
or anything to threaten me.

358
00:23:28,880 --> 00:23:30,120
I agree to all three.

359
00:23:31,520 --> 00:23:32,360
Princess.

360
00:23:33,800 --> 00:23:34,760
You've finally come to your senses.

361
00:23:38,640 --> 00:23:41,600
I watched my royal parents
die before my eyes.

362
00:23:42,160 --> 00:23:43,280
The people of Zhongwan

363
00:23:43,360 --> 00:23:45,200
were branded as Daning's slaves.

364
00:23:45,840 --> 00:23:48,280
I am the last of Zhongwan's royal line.

365
00:23:49,240 --> 00:23:50,160
This realm

366
00:23:50,640 --> 00:23:52,480
I will reclaim with my own hands.

367
00:23:56,320 --> 00:23:57,760
The Mystic Bird returns.

368
00:23:59,080 --> 00:24:00,080
I, Shangguan Zhao,

369
00:24:00,840 --> 00:24:02,560
swear to follow the Princess unto death.

370
00:24:02,640 --> 00:24:04,440
If you acknowledge me as your Princess,

371
00:24:06,160 --> 00:24:08,000
then kneel when you speak to me.

372
00:24:18,360 --> 00:24:20,080
I will not remain merely a Princess.

373
00:24:20,160 --> 00:24:22,920
I am the last of Zhongwan's royal blood.

374
00:24:23,600 --> 00:24:26,160
I will become Zhongwan's
first female sovereign.

375
00:24:28,840 --> 00:24:30,160
The day I ascend the throne

376
00:24:31,760 --> 00:24:33,760
will be the day you and I marry.

377
00:24:36,320 --> 00:24:37,280
Shangguan Zhao

378
00:24:38,160 --> 00:24:39,000
accepts the command.

379
00:24:44,920 --> 00:24:46,200
Yeqi has sent an alliance pact.

380
00:24:46,280 --> 00:24:47,640
Taishui has submitted its surrender.

381
00:24:48,200 --> 00:24:49,320
Di Nian, Zhishu,

382
00:24:49,400 --> 00:24:50,680
the way you fought those two campaigns

383
00:24:50,760 --> 00:24:52,440
had the spirit of Marquis Wu in his prime.

384
00:24:53,760 --> 00:24:55,080
I was fortunate not to fail my mission.

385
00:24:55,160 --> 00:24:56,000
General Di.

386
00:24:57,520 --> 00:24:58,360
Your Majesty.

387
00:24:58,440 --> 00:25:00,880
Beijian has cut our supply route
for over seven days.

388
00:25:00,960 --> 00:25:02,960
Our wounded lack doctors
and medicine. It's critical.

389
00:25:03,040 --> 00:25:04,840
Fuzhi has contacted merchant guilds
in every prefecture.

390
00:25:04,920 --> 00:25:06,320
They are willing to gather
supplies together.

391
00:25:06,400 --> 00:25:07,480
Your Majesty.

392
00:25:07,560 --> 00:25:09,240
I will stake my entire fortune

393
00:25:09,320 --> 00:25:11,240
and persuade them to release
their supplies

394
00:25:11,320 --> 00:25:12,640
to relieve our army's urgent need.

395
00:25:12,720 --> 00:25:14,160
If we lose this war,

396
00:25:14,640 --> 00:25:15,680
as the foremost merchant
on these trade routes,

397
00:25:15,760 --> 00:25:17,040
you will be the first
they settle accounts with.

398
00:25:17,120 --> 00:25:19,120
Everything you've built over the years

399
00:25:19,200 --> 00:25:20,440
will be lost.

400
00:25:20,520 --> 00:25:22,640
Without a country,
how can there be a home?

401
00:25:22,720 --> 00:25:25,280
I only hope this war ends soon

402
00:25:25,360 --> 00:25:26,640
so I can be reunited with Mengmeng.

403
00:25:27,560 --> 00:25:28,440
Within three days,

404
00:25:28,520 --> 00:25:30,240
the first medicines will reach the army.

405
00:25:30,320 --> 00:25:32,080
Miss Yan, your sense of duty honors you.

406
00:25:32,160 --> 00:25:34,000
On behalf of the whole army, I thank you.

407
00:25:34,080 --> 00:25:35,080
Zhishu.

408
00:25:35,160 --> 00:25:36,720
Take Miss Yan through the western gorge.

409
00:25:36,800 --> 00:25:38,560
Gather the supplies and keep her safe.

410
00:25:38,640 --> 00:25:40,720
I will not let a hair
on her head be harmed.

411
00:25:40,800 --> 00:25:41,640
Your Majesty.

412
00:25:41,720 --> 00:25:42,680
Urgent report.

413
00:25:43,400 --> 00:25:45,200
The Zhongwan rebels
sent a message by arrow.

414
00:25:45,280 --> 00:25:46,440
They say Lord Meng...

415
00:25:47,440 --> 00:25:48,280
Speak.

416
00:25:49,440 --> 00:25:50,560
Lord Meng intends to proclaim
herself sovereign

417
00:25:50,640 --> 00:25:51,760
and establish her own rule.

418
00:25:54,800 --> 00:25:56,240
Beijian cuts our supplies.

419
00:25:56,320 --> 00:25:57,360
Zhongwan sows chaos in our ranks.

420
00:25:57,440 --> 00:25:59,560
They mean to trap Your Majesty
between threats at home and abroad.

421
00:25:59,640 --> 00:26:00,720
Your Majesty.

422
00:26:00,800 --> 00:26:02,360
We must strike first and end this threat.

423
00:26:02,440 --> 00:26:03,520
Shen Zhishu.

424
00:26:03,600 --> 00:26:05,600
The Shen clan's duty for generations

425
00:26:05,680 --> 00:26:07,720
is to protect His Majesty
and defend Daning.

426
00:26:07,800 --> 00:26:09,480
Even if you hate me for it today,

427
00:26:09,960 --> 00:26:11,240
I will still stand my ground.

428
00:26:11,320 --> 00:26:13,000
As Zhongwan's Princess, Meng Tinghui

429
00:26:13,080 --> 00:26:15,160
is the hope that keeps her people alive.

430
00:26:15,240 --> 00:26:17,560
Whether or not she becomes
their sovereign,

431
00:26:17,640 --> 00:26:19,120
in her present circumstances,

432
00:26:19,880 --> 00:26:21,960
this may be her only choice.

433
00:26:24,480 --> 00:26:26,720
Even if Beijian and Zhongwan ally,

434
00:26:26,800 --> 00:26:27,680
we still have another move.

435
00:26:33,520 --> 00:26:35,040
Beijian's Second Prince died in Daning.

436
00:26:35,120 --> 00:26:37,480
It was the work of Emperor Ying Gua.

437
00:26:37,560 --> 00:26:39,280
Yeqi has now submitted,

438
00:26:39,360 --> 00:26:41,280
and Taishui cannot withstand him either.

439
00:26:41,360 --> 00:26:43,360
Only if you and I join forces

440
00:26:43,440 --> 00:26:45,920
can we face Daning's 100,000 iron cavalry.

441
00:26:46,000 --> 00:26:48,800
Zhongwan has been gone for years.

442
00:26:49,400 --> 00:26:51,320
You're nothing but a homeless cur.

443
00:26:51,400 --> 00:26:52,800
What gives you the right
to bargain with us?

444
00:26:52,880 --> 00:26:54,280
Because Zhongwan's Princess

445
00:26:55,080 --> 00:26:56,400
is the woman Ying Gua loves.

446
00:26:57,920 --> 00:26:59,240
Besides,

447
00:27:00,000 --> 00:27:02,000
the Princess and I
have long been betrothed.

448
00:27:02,080 --> 00:27:03,280
We will marry very soon.

449
00:27:06,440 --> 00:27:07,360
Shangguan Zhao.

450
00:27:08,080 --> 00:27:10,680
You come into my command tent
with nothing but words

451
00:27:10,760 --> 00:27:13,560
and expect Beijian's cavalry
to believe you?

452
00:27:13,640 --> 00:27:16,280
You're only the leader
of the Blood Moon Society.

453
00:27:16,920 --> 00:27:17,760
Beijian

454
00:27:17,840 --> 00:27:19,480
recognizes only true kings.

455
00:27:20,240 --> 00:27:21,240
In that case,

456
00:27:22,080 --> 00:27:23,760
would Your Highness
be willing to ally with me?

457
00:27:31,400 --> 00:27:33,400
Zhongwan has been gone for years.

458
00:27:34,480 --> 00:27:36,080
What do you have to offer
me in an alliance?

459
00:27:36,160 --> 00:27:38,000
In this war between Beijian and Daning,

460
00:27:38,520 --> 00:27:41,320
I'll teach you how to win.

461
00:27:43,520 --> 00:27:45,200
He'll station heavy forces here.

462
00:27:45,960 --> 00:27:47,560
So we should take

463
00:27:47,640 --> 00:27:48,760
Xigu Pass.

464
00:27:48,840 --> 00:27:50,480
-Kill!
-Kill!

465
00:27:50,560 --> 00:27:52,800
Beijian will certainly detour
through Xigu Pass.

466
00:27:52,880 --> 00:27:55,240
Di Nian, lead troops to intercept
and pursue them.

467
00:27:55,320 --> 00:27:57,080
Xigu Pass is lightly defended.

468
00:27:57,160 --> 00:27:59,320
-Then why, Your Majesty?
-Precisely because it is lightly defended,

469
00:27:59,400 --> 00:28:00,880
it will be her choice.

470
00:28:01,680 --> 00:28:03,440
She knows I'll set an ambush
on the trade route.

471
00:28:03,520 --> 00:28:05,200
I know she'll find another path.

472
00:28:05,280 --> 00:28:06,480
How could Zhongwan's Princess

473
00:28:06,560 --> 00:28:08,840
know Daning's troop deployments?

474
00:28:08,920 --> 00:28:11,000
Because he already anticipated

475
00:28:11,080 --> 00:28:12,960
that I would anticipate his every move.

476
00:28:13,040 --> 00:28:14,200
If we want to win,

477
00:28:15,080 --> 00:28:16,520
we must make him believe

478
00:28:16,600 --> 00:28:18,680
everything is still under his control.

479
00:28:18,760 --> 00:28:21,680
No one understands her thoughts
better than I do.

480
00:28:22,680 --> 00:28:24,320
Tonight I will lead our elite troops

481
00:28:24,400 --> 00:28:25,320
to scout the enemy camp myself.

482
00:28:25,400 --> 00:28:26,240
Di Nian.

483
00:28:26,320 --> 00:28:28,440
I will lead troops in a feint.

484
00:28:55,480 --> 00:28:56,560
Fuzhi.

485
00:28:56,640 --> 00:28:58,320
You've gone all day without food or water

486
00:28:58,400 --> 00:28:59,600
while gathering supplies. Eat something.

487
00:29:01,040 --> 00:29:02,400
I'm not hungry.

488
00:29:02,480 --> 00:29:04,120
Do we really have to be like this?

489
00:29:04,200 --> 00:29:05,680
From the moment you raised your sword

490
00:29:05,760 --> 00:29:07,440
against Mengmeng in Sacred Ancestor Hall,

491
00:29:07,920 --> 00:29:08,880
was there still an "us"?

492
00:29:12,280 --> 00:29:13,160
Shen Zhishu.

493
00:29:14,440 --> 00:29:16,320
You know how much Mengmeng means to me.

494
00:29:22,320 --> 00:29:23,840
My mother died when I was young.

495
00:29:23,920 --> 00:29:26,440
Growing up, only Mengmeng
stayed by my side

496
00:29:26,520 --> 00:29:27,360
and cared for me.

497
00:29:27,960 --> 00:29:29,280
If she hadn't been there for me,

498
00:29:29,360 --> 00:29:31,240
I would've followed my mother long ago.

499
00:29:32,680 --> 00:29:34,760
And yet you could bring yourself

500
00:29:35,720 --> 00:29:37,080
to kill her?

501
00:29:37,160 --> 00:29:38,280
Fuzhi.

502
00:29:39,160 --> 00:29:40,920
I am not your Shen Zhishu alone.

503
00:29:41,600 --> 00:29:43,920
The woman I pointed my sword at that day

504
00:29:44,000 --> 00:29:45,440
was Zhongwan's Princess,
not your Mengmeng.

505
00:29:46,480 --> 00:29:48,400
She was a rebel intent
on destroying the court

506
00:29:48,480 --> 00:29:50,400
and destroying Daning.

507
00:29:50,480 --> 00:29:52,280
You know better than anyone

508
00:29:52,360 --> 00:29:53,520
how much good Mengmeng
has done for Daning.

509
00:29:53,600 --> 00:29:55,240
Shen Zhishu, answer me.

510
00:29:55,320 --> 00:29:57,560
Do you truly believe Mengmeng
would betray Daning

511
00:29:57,640 --> 00:29:59,040
or hurt His Majesty?

512
00:29:59,120 --> 00:30:00,240
Before everyone in that hall,

513
00:30:00,320 --> 00:30:02,520
if you were me,
what would you have chosen?

514
00:30:03,080 --> 00:30:04,600
Would you have done what Meng Tinghui did—

515
00:30:04,680 --> 00:30:06,040
defied His Majesty

516
00:30:07,480 --> 00:30:08,320
and betrayed Daning?

517
00:30:12,560 --> 00:30:13,560
Fuzhi.

518
00:30:13,640 --> 00:30:14,480
Leave me alone.

519
00:30:28,360 --> 00:30:30,440
Fuzhi, I know

520
00:30:31,120 --> 00:30:32,240
you've resented me all this time.

521
00:30:32,920 --> 00:30:35,080
If hating me makes you feel any better,

522
00:30:37,440 --> 00:30:38,880
then hate me for as long as you need.

523
00:30:44,520 --> 00:30:46,440
It's not that I refuse to walk beside you.

524
00:30:46,520 --> 00:30:47,760
But behind me

525
00:30:48,480 --> 00:30:50,720
stands a century of honor
earned by the Shen clan,

526
00:30:50,800 --> 00:30:53,160
and Daning's peace,
forged in soldiers' blood.

527
00:31:00,040 --> 00:31:02,480
I do hate you.

528
00:31:03,520 --> 00:31:06,200
I hate that you can't understand
that Mengmeng had no choice.

529
00:31:06,280 --> 00:31:08,560
I hate that you put a cold principle

530
00:31:08,640 --> 00:31:10,680
above what we have together.

531
00:31:13,560 --> 00:31:15,560
I hate that everything you say is right.

532
00:31:15,640 --> 00:31:17,320
But I still hate you.

533
00:31:17,400 --> 00:31:19,040
I hate you.

534
00:31:19,960 --> 00:31:21,720
Protecting Daning is my duty.

535
00:31:23,160 --> 00:31:24,120
Protecting you

536
00:31:25,800 --> 00:31:26,880
is my instinct.

537
00:31:42,840 --> 00:31:43,880
The east gate is under attack!

538
00:31:43,960 --> 00:31:45,400
-Send reinforcements!
-Move!

539
00:31:45,480 --> 00:31:46,880
-Hurry!
-Move!

540
00:31:47,760 --> 00:31:48,600
Go!

541
00:32:19,040 --> 00:32:20,120
Who started the fire?

542
00:32:22,680 --> 00:32:24,480
Your Highness, shadow guards
attacked the supply camp.

543
00:32:25,240 --> 00:32:26,840
Ying Gua must have sent them.

544
00:32:29,400 --> 00:32:30,400
Someone is retreating
toward the east gate.

545
00:32:30,480 --> 00:32:31,360
After them!

546
00:32:34,680 --> 00:32:35,640
Princess.

547
00:32:35,720 --> 00:32:37,320
Your life is too precious to risk.

548
00:32:37,400 --> 00:32:38,360
Please remain here and coordinate.

549
00:32:50,760 --> 00:32:52,240
Is it true?

550
00:32:53,800 --> 00:32:54,680
It is.

551
00:32:55,240 --> 00:32:56,960
You truly mean to marry Shangguan Zhao

552
00:32:58,200 --> 00:32:59,040
and proclaim yourself sovereign?

553
00:32:59,120 --> 00:33:01,400
My people were bullied to death

554
00:33:01,480 --> 00:33:02,840
by Daning soldiers.

555
00:33:02,920 --> 00:33:04,280
Every night when I close my eyes,

556
00:33:05,520 --> 00:33:08,480
a hundred thousand dead souls
weep blood in my ears.

557
00:33:08,560 --> 00:33:10,360
Murong Yao,

558
00:33:12,680 --> 00:33:14,200
why won't you fight?

559
00:33:15,040 --> 00:33:16,280
If you were me,

560
00:33:17,480 --> 00:33:19,040
what would you choose?

561
00:33:20,960 --> 00:33:23,200
There is no way to have both.

562
00:33:25,440 --> 00:33:26,680
You love your Daning.

563
00:33:27,600 --> 00:33:29,040
I love my Zhongwan too.

564
00:33:30,200 --> 00:33:31,320
On our wedding day,

565
00:33:31,400 --> 00:33:32,640
you let me leave.

566
00:33:34,360 --> 00:33:36,240
Today, I'll say I never saw you.

567
00:33:36,320 --> 00:33:37,520
From this moment on,

568
00:33:39,200 --> 00:33:40,320
we owe each other nothing.

569
00:33:54,200 --> 00:33:55,400
Your Majesty's foresight
was extraordinary.

570
00:33:55,480 --> 00:33:57,080
First we burned Beijian's supplies

571
00:33:57,160 --> 00:33:58,280
and threw their camp into chaos.

572
00:33:58,360 --> 00:34:00,640
Then our troops donned golden-thread mail

573
00:34:00,720 --> 00:34:02,480
and ambushed them at Xigu Pass.

574
00:34:02,560 --> 00:34:04,520
Beijian's main force
was completely routed.

575
00:34:05,080 --> 00:34:06,480
Beijian suffered a crushing first defeat.

576
00:34:06,560 --> 00:34:07,720
They will counterattack
with everything they have.

577
00:34:08,320 --> 00:34:09,640
We cannot let down our guard.

578
00:34:09,720 --> 00:34:10,840
-Yes.
-Yes.

579
00:34:13,680 --> 00:34:14,520
Shangguan Zhao.

580
00:34:16,280 --> 00:34:17,240
Where is Meng Tinghui?

581
00:34:17,800 --> 00:34:19,120
The Princess has returned
to the detached palace

582
00:34:19,200 --> 00:34:20,480
to prepare for her coronation.

583
00:34:20,560 --> 00:34:22,040
At Xigu Pass,

584
00:34:22,120 --> 00:34:24,400
you cost Beijian dearly.

585
00:34:25,400 --> 00:34:26,280
Speak.

586
00:34:26,360 --> 00:34:28,160
Did your Princess secretly
collude with Daning?

587
00:34:28,240 --> 00:34:29,720
Your Highness.

588
00:34:29,800 --> 00:34:31,720
Victory and defeat are common in war.

589
00:34:31,800 --> 00:34:34,360
To accuse us before the truth is known

590
00:34:34,440 --> 00:34:35,920
is far too hasty.

591
00:34:38,200 --> 00:34:40,480
Daning's shadow guards retreated west,

592
00:34:40,560 --> 00:34:43,080
yet you falsely claimed they went east.

593
00:34:43,160 --> 00:34:44,240
Speak.

594
00:34:44,320 --> 00:34:45,800
Were you secretly aiding the enemy?

595
00:34:45,880 --> 00:34:47,520
What I saw that night

596
00:34:47,600 --> 00:34:48,600
was the east gate.

597
00:34:49,760 --> 00:34:50,960
Your Highness.

598
00:34:51,040 --> 00:34:52,400
If she truly dares aid the enemy,

599
00:34:52,880 --> 00:34:54,400
I will kill her with my own hands.

600
00:34:54,480 --> 00:34:56,200
Then I'll clean house for you.

601
00:34:59,000 --> 00:35:01,160
Sir, your hand...

602
00:35:05,000 --> 00:35:06,120
Shangguan Zhao.

603
00:35:07,000 --> 00:35:08,040
Your dog

604
00:35:09,000 --> 00:35:11,200
has begun thinking thoughts she shouldn't.

605
00:35:12,040 --> 00:35:12,880
Guards.

606
00:35:13,600 --> 00:35:14,440
Take her away.

607
00:35:23,400 --> 00:35:26,160
Ying Gua's forces are concentrated
at Xigu Pass.

608
00:35:26,240 --> 00:35:28,200
While he has lowered his guard,

609
00:35:28,880 --> 00:35:31,200
we should strike Jinxia Pass,
Daning's throat.

610
00:35:32,600 --> 00:35:35,360
I want Ying Gua to watch his vast realm

611
00:35:36,400 --> 00:35:38,480
turn into a sea of blood.

612
00:35:52,640 --> 00:35:54,720
What did you hide from the Princess?

613
00:35:54,800 --> 00:35:56,200
It had nothing to do with her.

614
00:35:56,960 --> 00:35:58,320
Beijian harbors predatory ambitions

615
00:35:58,400 --> 00:35:59,320
and cannot be trusted.

616
00:35:59,400 --> 00:36:01,040
I won't watch you bargain with a tiger.

617
00:36:06,640 --> 00:36:09,240
As long as Daning is destroyed,
I don't care what it costs.

618
00:36:10,040 --> 00:36:11,160
I was the one who saved you.

619
00:36:11,240 --> 00:36:12,520
I was the one who taught you the sword.

620
00:36:13,320 --> 00:36:14,920
And now the one betraying me

621
00:36:15,640 --> 00:36:17,360
is you?

622
00:36:17,440 --> 00:36:19,280
I cannot watch you keep
making the same mistake.

623
00:36:21,400 --> 00:36:23,280
Look at what you've become.

624
00:36:23,360 --> 00:36:25,520
Are you still doing this
for Zhongwan's people?

625
00:36:25,600 --> 00:36:28,240
You're using their blood

626
00:36:28,320 --> 00:36:29,720
to feed your own selfish desire.

627
00:36:30,720 --> 00:36:32,120
You hate that the Princess
fell in love with Ying Gua.

628
00:36:32,200 --> 00:36:33,480
Then go kill Ying Gua.

629
00:36:36,520 --> 00:36:38,360
But don't make thousands of innocents

630
00:36:38,440 --> 00:36:39,760
die with you.

631
00:36:39,840 --> 00:36:41,800
Don't think I won't kill you.

632
00:36:45,400 --> 00:36:47,160
You gave me this life.

633
00:36:48,120 --> 00:36:49,600
I'm giving it back to you.

634
00:36:50,480 --> 00:36:51,840
If I die by your hand,

635
00:36:55,120 --> 00:36:56,480
I accept it willingly.

636
00:37:04,440 --> 00:37:05,440
Get out.

637
00:37:05,520 --> 00:37:07,400
Before I change my mind.

638
00:37:11,040 --> 00:37:12,520
Let's leave together.

639
00:37:13,760 --> 00:37:15,560
Far away from all this conflict.

640
00:37:30,520 --> 00:37:32,520
You all say I've gone mad.

641
00:37:32,600 --> 00:37:33,640
But if I hadn't,

642
00:37:34,160 --> 00:37:35,840
how could I have survived

643
00:37:35,920 --> 00:37:37,680
more than ten years of hatred?

644
00:37:37,704 --> 00:37:39,704
