[Episode 46]

17

Mr. Zhuang has left.

18

What?

19

Early this morning, the dying Ni told me to go over to see him

20

and to give these things to you.

21

This is the list he wrote.

22

He left his whole collection of books to you.

23

Do you what this means?

24

This means he has handed over his inherited literary works to you.

25

Mr. Zhuang has high expectations for you.

26

[God of Poetry]

27

You could write this sort of poem!

28

They shouldn't be vulgarities in the mortal world.

29

I cannot watch these rare texts get covered with dust!

30

[God of Poetry]

31

I've actually only met him twice.

32

His last words were for you to walk your own path properly.

33

He also said...

34

I've lived happily.

35

I'm not too hard on myself, nor do I lie to myself.

36

Lord Fan, I hope you can also be like that.

37

Live happily. Merrily and happily!

38

- Happily.

- Happily.

39

Happily.

40

In my life, I paid attention to countless books.

41

I wrote so many essays.

42

but what I'm most proud of is the life I lived.

43

I must also leave now.

44

I think we'll meet again.

45

Lili has come too.

46

Where?

47

Don't try to find her. She's somewhere where she can see you.

48

Bie Jie? Bie Jia?

49

Such a strange name.

50

Hurry up and go! Go!

51

Master Yan! Master Yan! Hurry up and leave!

52

My brother is going to kill you all. If you don't leave now, it'll be too late!

53

Go!

54

Brother!

55

The country is in trouble. Kill the people of Southern Qing!

56

Has Shen Zhong gone crazy?

57

Why are there imperial soldiers?

58

They're Lili's guards.

59

I know your wounds the best!

60

Brother!

61

Go! Hurry and go!

62

Go!

63

Don't be afraid.

64

You won't die.

65

I'll save you. You're not going to die.

66

The heavens want to destroy my Qi State!

67

Fan Xian.

68

Everybody, freeze!

69

I've always noticed it. But this money

70

is now in the hands of the biggest family in Southern Qing,

71

the Ming family.

72

The Ming family?

73

The head of the Ming family is

74

the Second Prince and Li Yunrui.

75

Wait, Li Yunrui has always been on the Crown Prince's side.

76

You've been tricked.

77

Oh right, Fan Xian.

78

I've left a gift for you.

79

Why are you suddenly telling me all this?

80

I trade you this information for my sister's life.

81

To telll you the truth, I really want to kill you and Yan Bingyun.

82

I know the chance of success might not be high,

83

When the imperial soldiers arrived,

84

I made a decision. That wound I inflicted on my little sister,

85

it didn't stop her but it wasn't that serious to cause death.

86

With this stab...only then can she live on.

87

I have to die in the end.

88

But I'm afraid she'll find it even harder to live in the Qi State alone.

89

Lord Fan,

90

bring my sister to Qing.

91

I promise you.

92

Lord Shen, you can come with us too.

93

My Great Qi's Jinyiwei

94

have never turned their backs and fled.

95

Take him away for punishment by His Majesty!

96

Go!

97

Go! Let's go!

98

Go! Go! Go!

99

If it wasn't for Lili,

100

at least half your people would've died.

101

You need to remember all the good things she's done.

102

I'll pretend I never saw her. Hide her in the car and go.

103

It's really goodbye this time. But I think we'll see each other again.

104

What's going on?

105

Run!

106

You're here.

107

Many people were worried you'd rise again.

108

They're actually scared of you.

109

In one's lifetime, it is very hard to rise again.

110

So, if I kill you now, no one will sympathize you.

111

If the Empress Dowager finds out, at most she will just scold me.

112

She may not even punish me.

113

Did you kill all my people?

114

It was me.

115

Did you cause the death of my adoptive father?

116

Yes.

117

That is exactly the reason why I'm killing you.

118

I know.

119

Grand General! The Emperor hasn't given an order yet!

120

It's snowing.

121

Kill!

122

Your grudges with me, will end here.

123

Mistress Shen's injuries are mostly healed, but she hasn't awaken yet.

124

You don't need to tell me anything about her.

125

Who was it that wouldn't let her go?

126

She's from Northern Qi.

127

Not anymore. Someone once said,

128

once someone's heart has love and knows who he loves,

129

they will become stronger than those who are cold and cruel.

130

There's nothing you want to say?

131

Since you already know it's the Second Prince who set up a trap to kill you, what do you plan to do?

132

I'll go back and ask him why he wants to kill me.

133

Once you ask, you won't be able to turn back.

134

He wants to kill me. Can I really pretend I don't know?

135

Do you think you can win against the Royals?

136

I don't care about my chances of winning.

137

Then what do you consider?

138

If someone wants to harm me, I'll retort.

139

That's how I'll be able to live happily.

140

Are you willing to help me after we return to Jingdu?

141

You can think about it on the way back.

142

No matter if you choose to help me or to join the Second Prince,

143

you must make a decision after knowing the truth.

144

I'll wait for your response.

145

I never liked you.

146

I know. I also want to hate you,

147

but seeing you in pain, I can't stand it.

148

I never had any feelings for you.

149

Go. Hurry and go! Go!

150

What's wrong?

151

There's someone there.

152

- Where?

- Lord. I'm not good at other things,

153

but the one thing I'm good at is tracking people.

154

Lord, you know that already.

155

I conclude that there must be someone watching us out there.

156

Come, take some bread to eat.

157

My Lord, here's your bread.

158

What are you two looking at?

159

Who is it?

160

Xie Bi'an?

161

- Master Yan.

- What?

162

Little Lord Fan has asked you to go over to him.

163

Xie Bi'an is here.

164

It is the Second Prince's personal guard.

165

It's him.

166

Where is he?

167

I told him to go rest.

168

He came to deliver a letter?

169

Yes.

170

He hoped we would open it together.

171

[For Mr Yan]

172

For you.

173

After we parted in the capital, I missed you.

174

Everyone knows their own matters.

175

My personality is a little lazy.

176

I hate dragging things out, so I'll be frank.

177

Fan Xian. You likely already know what I did in Shangjing.

178

How should I put it?

179

In this world, it's the hardest for someone to be a royal son.

180

Everyone else's sons fight too,

181

but if they lose, they at most lose their future.

182

They lose the inheritance.

183

They lose face.

184

If I lose...

185

I will lose my life.

186

So all the things I've done during these years is to protect my life.

187

I hope you will understand.

188

You probably guessed it too.

189

The one who is fighting with you is actually on my side.

190

I admit it. I was behind all the things you came across.

191

Please forgive me, as things were hard on me too.

192

But I will sincerely tell you that to you,

193

I hold great favor.

194

People cannot live in the past.

195

If you can forget the past, I swear

196

I will do my best to support you and make you the top official in the country!

197

From now on, the Fan family

198

will be the highest ranked family in the nation.

199

I heard that your dream is to live with no worries.

200

I can help you! I am not lying in this promise.

201

I told Xie Bi'en to bring you a present.

202

I hope you can feel my sincerity.

203

And choose to help me.

204

What did he write to you?

205

Tell me about yours first.

206

High ranking positions, a bright future.

207

In short, he hopes I will brush aside the past.

208

All that should be said has been said.

209

But nothing is set in stone.

210

He didn't even leave a note. It can't be evidence.

211

He's quite crafty.

212

"A life with no worries"?

213

Yes.

214

I don't have any grand dreams.

215

I don't have any ambitions. I just want peace and safety.

216

Then you should agree to his request.

217

I also want to.

218

But the ones who died are pulling on my clothes.

219

I want them to rest in peace and let go.

220

You don't want a truce?

221

Once someone has done something, there should be a consequence.

222

If you act right, you can eat candy.

223

If you acted wrongly, you should be punished.

224

If something already passed, perhaps it can't be mentioned again.

225

My heart is not at ease.

226

If my heart isn't at ease,

227

What about you? What did he write to you?

228

He wants me to understand one thing.

229

If his actions are revealed, he'll work his hardest to fight back.

230

When that happens, the Qing State will be thrown into chaos.

231

And so?

232

All that the Inspection and Control Bureau does is to keep the Qing State stable.

233

This is also the reason why I live.

234

I need to think about it again.

235

He also said he brought me a present.

236

Want to look at it together?

237

My Lord.

238

Where's Old Wang?

239

Brother Wang went to make arrangements for the ambassadors.

240

He said not many people can know about what is happening here.

241

Wang Qinian is very meticulous.

242

Yes.

243

Congratulations Young Master Yan, for escaping danger.

244

I have a question for you.

245

Go ahead.

246

When did the Second Prince find out

247

about what the ambassadors did in Shangjing?

248

The states are so far away, news can't travel easily.

249

His Highness doesn't know what the ambassadors did in Shangjing City.

250

Then why did he send you to deliver such a letter?

251

Because His Highness trusts Young Lord Xiao Fan.

252

Ever since the day you left the capital,

253

His Highness said that you'd surely find out the truth about Shangjing.

254

Go back and tell him for me.

255

I trust in his sincerity.

256

But I am petty. I won't forgive him.

257

His Highness said

258

to accept his gift first.

259

His Highness said that he should make up for your guard's death.

260

That child will receive the best teacher.

261

He will have the best future.

262

His Highness said you can absolutely be at ease.

263

Also, there is another layer to this box.

264

My Lord, please look at the seal.

265

[Danbo Bookstore]

266

Danbo Bookstore?

267

Hurry! Or else I'll hit your butt!

268

I am close friends with your brother. Of course I must take care of you.

269

You mean...

270

there is something that can earn more money than a bookstore?

271

It will naturally bring in money.

272

His Highness said Second Young Master Fan

273

is innocent and cute. He's very likable.

274

Fan Sizhi is a legitimate son. As an illegitimate son,

275

how good could my relationship be with him?

276

His Highness said

277

you usually look like you like to play and don't care about the world.

278

But in reality, you are a trusted person who values others.

279

He said he wouldn't be wrong.

280

He is quite confident.

281

There is one last layer in this box.

282

I've been observing your hands.

283

I have long known your measurements.

284

Good! I like it!

285

How could you capture my teacher?

286

Old Fei is good with poisons. We couldn't capture him.

287

But humans all have weaknesses.

288

Is that so?

289

I didn't know Teacher had any weaknesses.

290

Young Lord Fan,

291

Old Fei's weakness is you.

292

Old Fei.

293

-You've sent it over?

-Yes.

294

I told Xie Bi'en to rush over with your glove.

295

I hope when Fan Xian sees the glove,

296

he can trust my sincerity.

297

If he runs into trouble, I should go myself.

298

Old Fei, you are the head of the Third Division of Investigation and Control Bureau.

299

So many people are watching you!

300

If you left the capital, what would I tell the Emperor?

301

But don't worry. It's just some small troubles in the ambassador group.

302

I personally sent someone to help him.

303

Fan Xian will definitely return safely.

304

Why are you helping him?

305

We get along well.

306

If anything happens to him, you must tell me first.

307

Don't worry, Old Fei.

308

I will definitely come find you again.

309

Is this a threat?

310

His Highness treats Fan Xian as a close friend.

311

Naturally, he must take care of those he cares about.

312

What if I insist on being stubborn?

313

His Highness spent a lot of money while acting in Shangjing.

314

He kept a group of horses and soldiers. They will arrive tomorrow

315

and protect the ambassador troupe all the way to the capital.

316

How many people do you think can kill me?

317

His Highness also wanted to ask you.

318

How many lives will make you regret not taking actions if you had already known?

319

I will come again tomorrow.

320

I hope you will give His Highness a clear answer.

321

If you join him, I will protect the ambassadors the entire journey.

322

Or else...I will take your life.

323

My Lord.

324

Sometimes if you take one step back, you can save their lives.

325

You will also gain a bright future.

326

Do you think you still have a right to choose?

327

I want to try.

328

What about you? Have you made up your mind?

329

What time is it?

330

I don't know. In any case, it's not early.

331

Gao Da! Gather everyone, prepare to get on the road!

332

Correct. I've come to send you off.

333

After thinking about it all night, what is your choice?

334

Fan Sizhi is the Fan family's legitimate son.

335

If he dies,

336

my old man won't give in easily.

337

Old Fei is the head of the Bureau's third division.

338

If he dies, the Inspection and Control Bureau won't give up easily!

339

These two people...he wouldn't dare to kill them.

340

So what is your choice?

341

It's not what I'm choosing. Now, you should make a decision.

342

One, kill everyone here!

343

After you go back, everyone will be traitors and executed!

344

Or, you can only watch me go back.

345

The things he gave me,

346

I will return them one by one.

347

If anything happens to Teng Zijing's child, he will repay with his life.

348

Ask him

349

if he dares to take such a big risk for a child.

350

And ask yourself.

351

If you have any guarantee that you'll take my life here.

352

My Lord!

353

This is my decision.

354

Everything the Inspection and Control Bureau does is to keep the Qing State stable.

355

This is also the reason why I live.

356

He died?

357

It's going to end like this?

358

Of course not.
