<i>[Novoland Inn, Tian Qi City]</i>

4
00:01:50,823 --> 00:01:52,954
Young Mistress,
sorry to keep you waiting.

5
00:01:52,954 --> 00:01:54,483
Cai Lu.

6
00:01:54,483 --> 00:01:56,084
Tell them to park farther away.

7
00:01:56,084 --> 00:01:57,468
They stink.

8
00:01:58,433 --> 00:02:00,620
Welcome, Miss Su.

9
00:02:06,661 --> 00:02:07,750
Incorrect.

10
00:02:07,750 --> 00:02:09,576
Your head is two inches too low.

11
00:02:09,576 --> 00:02:10,918
Do it again.

12
00:02:14,383 --> 00:02:16,817
Welcome, Miss Su!

13
00:02:17,971 --> 00:02:19,722
Your back isn't straight enough.

14
00:02:19,722 --> 00:02:21,073
Do it again.

15
00:02:24,300 --> 00:02:26,419
Welcome, Miss Su!

16
00:02:29,687 --> 00:02:31,948
The tip of your left foot
tipped too much to the side.

17
00:02:31,948 --> 00:02:33,116
It looks slightly boorish.

18
00:02:33,116 --> 00:02:35,637
It's not how children of
an influential family should behave.

19
00:02:38,664 --> 00:02:44,016
I wonder which humble family
this young lady comes from?

20
00:02:44,016 --> 00:02:46,427
She's making such
an effort to sell herself

21
00:02:46,427 --> 00:02:48,878
to a rich man in Tian Qi City
for a good price?

22
00:02:50,884 --> 00:02:52,406
Again.

23
00:02:53,092 --> 00:02:54,512
Nanny Su...

24
00:02:55,615 --> 00:02:57,917
Once you enter the palace,
you rank above everyone else.

25
00:02:57,917 --> 00:02:59,640
Why would you care
what those servants say?

26
00:02:59,640 --> 00:03:01,825
Should anyone dare to
make fun of you in the future

27
00:03:01,825 --> 00:03:03,633
they can only think about doing so.

28
00:03:03,633 --> 00:03:06,112
They wouldn't dare to say it out loud
or show any expression.

29
00:03:06,112 --> 00:03:09,651
If anyone is so oblivious
that she says it out loud

30
00:03:09,651 --> 00:03:11,877
you can just have her killed.

31
00:03:13,864 --> 00:03:15,036
Forget it.

32
00:03:15,036 --> 00:03:16,491
Let's head inside.

33
00:03:18,882 --> 00:03:22,066
Slow down. Keep your shoulders even.

34
00:03:26,373 --> 00:03:30,139
This young lady is also
entering the palace as a study partner?

35
00:03:34,593 --> 00:03:36,640
<i>[Young Su Yu Ning]</i>

36
00:03:41,161 --> 00:03:42,379
How dare you hit me?

37
00:03:42,379 --> 00:03:43,590
Cai Lu!

38
00:03:50,342 --> 00:03:51,741
My servant is poorly disciplined.

39
00:03:51,741 --> 00:03:53,510
I apologize.

40
00:04:01,158 --> 00:04:03,931
I wonder how I should
address this young lady.

41
00:04:03,931 --> 00:04:05,435
Where are you from?

42
00:04:09,127 --> 00:04:11,277
I'm Su Yu Ning of Yue Prefecture.

43
00:04:12,562 --> 00:04:14,556
Su Yu Ning?

44
00:04:16,245 --> 00:04:17,661
I'll remember your name.

45
00:04:24,850 --> 00:04:27,346
<i>You must be wary
of that woman from now on.</i>

46
00:04:28,598 --> 00:04:30,288
I didn't offend her.

47
00:04:31,867 --> 00:04:33,812
You haven't. Yet.

48
00:04:34,697 --> 00:04:36,117
I've already asked around.

49
00:04:36,117 --> 00:04:37,242
She's Wan Ying Lei.

50
00:04:37,242 --> 00:04:40,603
She's also one of the ladies-in-waiting
chosen as a study partner this year.

51
00:04:41,839 --> 00:04:43,610
What is the palace?

52
00:04:43,610 --> 00:04:47,629
So many outstanding women
are out to fight for one man.

53
00:04:47,629 --> 00:04:50,362
The days are long and boring.

54
00:04:50,362 --> 00:04:54,607
If frustrations can't be vented,
people will fall ill.

55
00:04:54,607 --> 00:04:59,839
The smart ones will stir things up
to cure themselves of such illness.

56
00:05:01,533 --> 00:05:05,600
If you can't outsmart them,
you'll become their cure.

57
00:05:06,684 --> 00:05:08,478
Must I serve in the palace?

58
00:05:17,771 --> 00:05:19,014
Look at you.

59
00:05:19,014 --> 00:05:21,834
You're still look lovely,
even in distress.

60
00:05:25,709 --> 00:05:28,514
If you can get a firm hold in the palace

61
00:05:28,514 --> 00:05:31,944
your parents will be able
to live out their lives in ease.

62
00:05:33,077 --> 00:05:34,379
I don't understand.

63
00:05:34,379 --> 00:05:38,821
Why would offering my service
in the palace affect anyone's life?

64
00:05:40,338 --> 00:05:41,810
Even if you don't enter the palace

65
00:05:41,810 --> 00:05:45,872
life is still about
all sorts of competitions.

66
00:05:46,843 --> 00:05:51,199
Some feel that you're in the way
if you lead a good life.

67
00:05:52,233 --> 00:05:53,552
I don't wish to hear more of it.

68
00:05:53,552 --> 00:05:55,548
You'll have to do it
whether you listen or not.

69
00:05:56,738 --> 00:05:58,026
I don't like it.

70
00:05:58,026 --> 00:05:59,202
What do you like?

71
00:05:59,202 --> 00:06:01,882
Leading a carefree life the way you want?

72
00:06:01,882 --> 00:06:03,819
Who doesn't like that?

73
00:06:04,862 --> 00:06:05,999
What a pity.

74
00:06:06,913 --> 00:06:10,134
Su Yu Ning, that's not your fate.

75
00:06:14,350 --> 00:06:15,389
Is that so?

76
00:06:26,411 --> 00:06:28,646
Quickly! Take our child and leave!

77
00:06:28,646 --> 00:06:29,827
- Quickly!
- Father!

78
00:06:29,827 --> 00:06:31,389
- Don't worry about me. Go!
- Father!

79
00:06:31,389 --> 00:06:32,444
Don't worry about me!

80
00:06:34,199 --> 00:06:35,531
Father!

81
00:06:39,074 --> 00:06:40,634
My child, run!

82
00:06:40,634 --> 00:06:42,632
If you want to live, keep running.

83
00:06:42,632 --> 00:06:44,012
Do you hear me? Keep running!

84
00:06:44,012 --> 00:06:45,589
- Don't turn back!
- Mother!

85
00:06:45,589 --> 00:06:46,733
- Run!
- Mother!

86
00:06:46,733 --> 00:06:48,144
My child, run!

87
00:06:48,144 --> 00:06:49,831
Forget about me! Run!

88
00:06:49,831 --> 00:06:51,500
Mother!

89
00:06:52,641 --> 00:06:54,425
Mother!

90
00:06:57,278 --> 00:06:58,884
Mother!

91
00:07:22,401 --> 00:07:23,451
Who are you?

92
00:07:25,064 --> 00:07:27,906
I'd like to ask
if you know that principle.

93
00:07:27,906 --> 00:07:29,235
What principle?

94
00:07:29,235 --> 00:07:32,358
From the moment
you draw your blade to kill

95
00:07:32,358 --> 00:07:36,997
you should know that
you'll die by one as well.

96
00:07:37,865 --> 00:07:39,322
Discipline...

97
00:07:39,899 --> 00:07:42,526
That's the greatest principle
in this world.

98
00:07:43,322 --> 00:07:47,918
Those who bring shame
to this principle shall be punished.

99
00:07:51,581 --> 00:07:54,067
Mentor, have some dried meat.

100
00:07:54,067 --> 00:07:55,819
It's from Wu on Yuman Street.

101
00:07:55,819 --> 00:07:57,985
<i>[Young Muru Han Jiang]</i>
I brought it just in case.

102
00:07:57,985 --> 00:08:00,553
I'll use it to appease you
when you get angry at me.

103
00:08:04,374 --> 00:08:06,144
Don't keep getting mad at me.

104
00:08:06,144 --> 00:08:09,045
If you take me too seriously,
you'll always be angry.

105
00:08:09,045 --> 00:08:12,999
If you fall ill from it,
you'll feel bad and so will I.

106
00:08:15,663 --> 00:08:19,281
I'm worried that you won't live up
to everything I've taught you.

107
00:08:20,348 --> 00:08:25,860
Now, you've been taught the skills
I have had for decades.

108
00:08:27,252 --> 00:08:29,622
Yet you'd jeopardize your life
to take on some bandits?

109
00:08:29,622 --> 00:08:31,677
That's such a waste!

110
00:08:33,017 --> 00:08:34,447
Get down on your knees.

111
00:08:39,566 --> 00:08:41,513
My child, bear this in mind.

112
00:08:42,323 --> 00:08:45,836
A man's blood isn't enough
to stain the land.

113
00:08:46,615 --> 00:08:51,102
Only by using one man's words
to encourage thousands of men

114
00:08:51,102 --> 00:08:54,764
one man's passion to light up
that of a million others

115
00:08:54,764 --> 00:08:56,437
can these forces join as one!

116
00:08:56,437 --> 00:09:00,498
Only then, all living creatures
shall be protected.

117
00:09:03,567 --> 00:09:05,475
This is what you should do.

118
00:09:06,590 --> 00:09:07,946
Could I do that?

119
00:09:07,946 --> 00:09:09,385
You were born to do so.

120
00:09:09,385 --> 00:09:10,960
You know who I am?

121
00:09:10,960 --> 00:09:15,590
You're... All I know is that
you were abandoned on the streets.

122
00:09:17,066 --> 00:09:18,541
Who are my parents?

123
00:09:18,541 --> 00:09:19,999
That's enough.

124
00:09:22,730 --> 00:09:23,940
I should head home now.

125
00:09:23,940 --> 00:09:26,020
We'll meet again tomorrow night.

126
00:09:30,514 --> 00:09:35,514
<i>[Nanku Manor, Tian Qi City]</i>

127
00:10:08,518 --> 00:10:09,926
Muru Yuan.

128
00:10:09,926 --> 00:10:12,168
He's General Muru's personal servant.

129
00:10:12,168 --> 00:10:15,182
He picks up the groceries
for the general every morning.

130
00:10:15,182 --> 00:10:21,506
Strangely though, I only see him
return to the manor in the mornings.

131
00:10:21,506 --> 00:10:24,600
I've never seen him leave the manor.

132
00:10:25,224 --> 00:10:27,719
The Muru family has
the military power all to themselves.

133
00:10:27,719 --> 00:10:30,738
They can ride horses in the royal city
and bring weapons into the palace.

134
00:10:30,738 --> 00:10:32,538
<i>[Nanku De]</i>
They even have the Royal Sky Sword

135
00:10:32,538 --> 00:10:34,177
bestowed by the deceased Emperor Taizu.

136
00:10:34,177 --> 00:10:37,913
Do you know what you can do
with the Royal Sky Sword?

137
00:10:40,802 --> 00:10:44,033
300 years ago, Muru Tian Tong
fought alongside Emperor Taizu.

138
00:10:44,033 --> 00:10:47,255
Hence, he was bestowed a family crest
with the purple Qilin beast

139
00:10:47,255 --> 00:10:48,977
and the Royal Sky Sword.

140
00:10:48,977 --> 00:10:52,572
The Muru family could then
command the army at will.

141
00:10:52,572 --> 00:10:54,376
When the sword was bestowed upon him

142
00:10:54,376 --> 00:10:56,758
Emperor Taizu made a secret
oral royal decree.

143
00:10:56,758 --> 00:11:02,162
Should anyone in the royal Muyun family
show any disrespect to the Muru family...

144
00:11:02,162 --> 00:11:08,976
the Muru family can kill them
with the sword and take the throne.

145
00:11:10,659 --> 00:11:12,980
Kill the emperor?

146
00:11:13,826 --> 00:11:16,495
Surrounded by such beasts,
we must certainly take caution.

147
00:11:16,495 --> 00:11:18,429
Should the Muru family
have a change of heart

148
00:11:18,429 --> 00:11:21,072
it isn't only the emperor of the
Great Duan Empire who would be in danger.

149
00:11:21,072 --> 00:11:23,044
It would bring disaster upon all.

150
00:11:26,712 --> 00:11:29,683
I'm willing to do whatever I can.

151
00:11:30,746 --> 00:11:35,104
The man you spoke of... He's Muru Yuan?

152
00:11:35,701 --> 00:11:36,942
Yes.

153
00:11:36,942 --> 00:11:40,221
Everyone in the manor
addresses him as Old Uncle.

154
00:11:41,272 --> 00:11:43,265
Not many know of his given name.

155
00:11:43,265 --> 00:11:47,346
But I have already found out
about his real name.

156
00:11:47,346 --> 00:11:49,206
It's Muru Yuan.

157
00:11:49,206 --> 00:11:52,024
Muru Yuan...

158
00:11:52,875 --> 00:11:57,041
He was once a renown warrior
of the Muru Cavalry.

159
00:11:57,041 --> 00:11:59,899
He vanished without a trace
for over 10 years.

160
00:12:01,136 --> 00:12:04,139
He actually ended up
as a servant in the manor?

161
00:12:06,211 --> 00:12:10,878
Muru Shuo... He must have had him
put to great use in some other aspect.

162
00:12:11,533 --> 00:12:12,999
Allow me to investigate carefully.

163
00:12:25,298 --> 00:12:26,542
Jump higher!

164
00:12:30,294 --> 00:12:31,508
Officer!

165
00:12:31,508 --> 00:12:32,731
Officer!

166
00:12:42,136 --> 00:12:43,326
Princess Jing.

167
00:12:50,114 --> 00:12:52,735
Is that the new slave fighter
you mentioned?

168
00:12:55,024 --> 00:12:58,219
Princess Jing,
there are stronger ones here.

169
00:12:58,219 --> 00:12:59,774
<i>[Young Muyun Yan Shuang]</i>
Mister Qin.

170
00:12:59,774 --> 00:13:01,206
I bet that he'll lose.

171
00:13:01,206 --> 00:13:02,615
Um, sure!

172
00:13:04,105 --> 00:13:06,916
But... Princess Jing, he's expensive.

173
00:13:06,916 --> 00:13:08,519
Why?

174
00:13:08,519 --> 00:13:11,181
He's the lord of Northern Han's
Shuofeng Clan.

175
00:13:12,100 --> 00:13:13,344
Shuofeng Clan?

176
00:13:18,346 --> 00:13:19,971
What's the fuss?

177
00:13:19,971 --> 00:13:21,673
Hundreds of years ago

178
00:13:21,673 --> 00:13:23,865
those with that surname
were indeed all warriors.

179
00:13:23,865 --> 00:13:25,505
They were still worthy of mentioning.

180
00:13:25,505 --> 00:13:27,917
But now, they must have all
vanished into the sand

181
00:13:27,917 --> 00:13:29,471
and wind in Northern Han's desert.

182
00:13:30,893 --> 00:13:31,953
Behave!

183
00:13:39,080 --> 00:13:40,192
I've changed my mind.

184
00:13:41,166 --> 00:13:43,831
Princess Jing, please check out
the other slave fighters.

185
00:13:43,831 --> 00:13:44,985
There's no need.

186
00:13:44,985 --> 00:13:46,375
I'm going to buy him.

187
00:13:46,375 --> 00:13:47,892
Name the price.

188
00:13:47,892 --> 00:13:50,840
From now on, he's my slave fighter.

189
00:13:50,840 --> 00:13:52,410
He will fight battles for me.

190
00:13:52,410 --> 00:13:57,486
Every match, calculate my earnings
according to the bets placed on him.

191
00:13:57,486 --> 00:14:01,139
If he's still alive in the end,
I'll take him with me.

192
00:14:02,086 --> 00:14:03,894
Princess Jing, you're a regular.

193
00:14:03,894 --> 00:14:05,125
I can't deceive you.

194
00:14:05,125 --> 00:14:07,153
This child isn't fully grown up yet.

195
00:14:07,153 --> 00:14:09,667
If he fights in the matches,
he won't measure up to the others.

196
00:14:09,667 --> 00:14:11,201
Many will bet on his defeat.

197
00:14:11,201 --> 00:14:12,356
The odds will be very high.

198
00:14:12,356 --> 00:14:16,667
If you buy him, he might win,
but he might lose as well.

199
00:14:16,667 --> 00:14:18,840
Would you like to reconsider it?

200
00:14:18,840 --> 00:14:20,456
Wouldn't that be even more interesting?

201
00:14:20,456 --> 00:14:21,554
How straightforward!

202
00:14:24,130 --> 00:14:25,971
You'll keep your promise
to take me with you?

203
00:14:25,971 --> 00:14:27,822
As long as you survive!

204
00:14:27,822 --> 00:14:29,619
I'm the Iron Wielder!

205
00:14:29,619 --> 00:14:31,864
I'm the king of the land and sea!

206
00:14:31,864 --> 00:14:35,803
This is not where I shall fall!

207
00:14:48,230 --> 00:14:50,076
<i>Young lady, you mustn't drink anymore.</i>

208
00:16:08,962 --> 00:16:10,417
Run...

209
00:16:13,793 --> 00:16:15,216
Your surname is...

210
00:16:38,687 --> 00:16:40,528
You killed him?

211
00:16:40,528 --> 00:16:41,782
Yes.

212
00:16:43,254 --> 00:16:44,919
It's because I wish to see you.

213
00:17:12,803 --> 00:17:14,743
Long knives prevail over swords.

214
00:17:16,249 --> 00:17:17,480
Little one.

215
00:17:17,480 --> 00:17:21,520
Don't blame me for bullying you.

216
00:18:25,781 --> 00:18:27,394
The tip of a spear turns into a sword.

217
00:18:27,394 --> 00:18:29,326
That's the Bone Chiller.

218
00:18:29,326 --> 00:18:31,703
You actually have the Bone Chiller Sword?

219
00:18:31,703 --> 00:18:34,240
Muru Yuan gave it to you?

220
00:18:34,240 --> 00:18:35,898
Who is Muru Yuan?

221
00:18:44,665 --> 00:18:47,079
I know who you are.

222
00:18:49,357 --> 00:18:50,752
Who am I?

223
00:18:50,752 --> 00:18:53,750
It's my great honor...

224
00:18:56,451 --> 00:18:59,396
to kill the master of the Bone Chiller.

225
00:20:15,201 --> 00:20:16,989
Are you hurt?

226
00:20:24,273 --> 00:20:25,551
What did you say?

227
00:21:10,663 --> 00:21:11,800
Who are you?

228
00:21:11,800 --> 00:21:13,176
Be quiet.

229
00:21:23,880 --> 00:21:25,750
What have you done to my young mistress?

230
00:21:25,750 --> 00:21:27,136
She's fine.

231
00:21:27,136 --> 00:21:28,567
Stop right there!

232
00:21:28,567 --> 00:21:30,857
Don't you dare leave
without an explanation!

233
00:21:30,857 --> 00:21:32,971
You're not to ruin
my young mistress's reputation!

234
00:21:32,971 --> 00:21:34,994
<i>Anyone there?</i>

235
00:21:34,994 --> 00:21:36,173
<i>Anyone?</i>

236
00:21:36,173 --> 00:21:38,638
There's a man in the room
of a lady-in-waiting!

237
00:21:39,559 --> 00:21:40,732
This is bad.

238
00:21:40,732 --> 00:21:42,982
What should I do?

239
00:21:42,982 --> 00:21:45,627
That man in there! Stop hiding!

240
00:21:45,627 --> 00:21:47,201
Come out here and explain yourself.

241
00:21:47,201 --> 00:21:49,876
What have you done to
our Miss Su Yu Ning?

242
00:21:49,876 --> 00:21:51,243
Mister Qin is here.

243
00:21:53,758 --> 00:21:55,355
Did you hear me?

244
00:21:55,355 --> 00:21:56,683
Get out here quickly!

245
00:21:56,683 --> 00:21:58,999
I'll rip your mouth apart
if you keep yelling!

246
00:22:03,818 --> 00:22:05,159
Mister Qin.

247
00:22:05,159 --> 00:22:07,443
Why is there a thief in your inn?

248
00:22:17,153 --> 00:22:19,798
You really sneaked into
my customer's room to steal from them?

249
00:22:19,798 --> 00:22:21,281
You're a thief?

250
00:22:22,811 --> 00:22:24,744
It can't be that simple.

251
00:22:25,490 --> 00:22:28,128
Are you also wanted for some murder case?

252
00:22:30,469 --> 00:22:32,672
Fine, you won't talk?

253
00:22:33,228 --> 00:22:34,916
I'll report you to the authorities.

254
00:22:36,044 --> 00:22:38,650
If it's made known that a thief
got into such a big inn of yours

255
00:22:38,650 --> 00:22:42,647
it will make you look bad
and hurt the lady's reputation.

256
00:22:43,347 --> 00:22:45,702
Why don't we just forget about it?

257
00:22:45,702 --> 00:22:47,096
Let me off.

258
00:22:47,096 --> 00:22:50,790
I'll then tell my pack of buddies
not to harass your inn ever again.

259
00:22:50,790 --> 00:22:52,352
Lucky you!

260
00:22:53,538 --> 00:22:55,492
- Who are you?
- Han Jiang.

261
00:22:56,261 --> 00:22:59,471
You're Tian Qi City's renown bully?

262
00:23:00,175 --> 00:23:01,794
Don't take those stories seriously!

263
00:23:01,794 --> 00:23:03,086
A bully?

264
00:23:03,086 --> 00:23:04,893
I'm a man of discipline!

265
00:23:04,893 --> 00:23:07,136
All right, I'll get going then.

266
00:23:07,136 --> 00:23:10,115
If anything comes up,
just say that you know me.

267
00:23:10,115 --> 00:23:12,608
It's probably inappropriate
for you to leave just like that.

268
00:23:13,693 --> 00:23:15,420
You can't hold me back anyway!

269
00:23:15,420 --> 00:23:18,440
If my customers go around
telling everyone

270
00:23:18,440 --> 00:23:20,839
that the young lady hid a man in her room

271
00:23:20,839 --> 00:23:23,000
and I don't wish to bribe them
to keep them quiet...

272
00:23:23,000 --> 00:23:24,407
what should I do then?

273
00:23:25,815 --> 00:23:27,249
What would you like to do?

274
00:23:28,903 --> 00:23:31,684
I heard that you fight very well.

275
00:23:35,685 --> 00:23:37,075
So...

276
00:23:37,075 --> 00:23:39,152
we'll see if it's worth the fight.

277
00:23:39,152 --> 00:23:41,037
I'll make you a deal.

278
00:23:50,823 --> 00:23:51,986
Nanny Su.

279
00:23:51,986 --> 00:23:55,470
It seems that someone brought me
back here last night.

280
00:23:55,470 --> 00:23:57,058
Where is he?

281
00:23:58,861 --> 00:24:00,798
You caught a cold last night in the wind.

282
00:24:00,798 --> 00:24:02,038
You had a fever.

283
00:24:02,038 --> 00:24:04,415
You've been sleeping in your room
and didn't go out at all.

284
00:24:04,415 --> 00:24:05,982
Who could have brought you back?

285
00:24:05,982 --> 00:24:08,229
You must be muddleheaded
from the fever and a nightmare.

286
00:24:08,229 --> 00:24:09,585
I had bloodstains on me.

287
00:24:09,585 --> 00:24:11,403
What nonsense is that?

288
00:24:12,794 --> 00:24:15,136
Here, get some more sleep.

289
00:24:15,136 --> 00:24:16,974
You have to get well soon.

290
00:24:16,974 --> 00:24:19,515
You're entering the palace in three days.

291
00:24:30,796 --> 00:24:32,044
Was it a dream?

292
00:24:33,929 --> 00:24:37,048
But I remember that face so clearly.

293
00:24:53,392 --> 00:24:55,151
It will be your turn soon.

294
00:24:57,123 --> 00:24:58,545
I'll say this again.

295
00:24:58,545 --> 00:25:00,204
I won't die in here.

296
00:25:00,204 --> 00:25:03,416
We'll see if you can still
say that by then.

297
00:25:03,416 --> 00:25:04,828
Save some strength!

298
00:25:05,980 --> 00:25:07,630
All right, stop pushing.

299
00:25:07,630 --> 00:25:09,051
I can walk on my own.

300
00:25:09,051 --> 00:25:10,542
How about this one?

301
00:25:10,542 --> 00:25:11,951
This cage is quite nice.

302
00:25:13,490 --> 00:25:15,181
I told you not to push me.

303
00:25:20,160 --> 00:25:21,528
<i>Master bought another one?</i>

304
00:25:21,528 --> 00:25:23,040
Don't bring it up.

305
00:25:23,040 --> 00:25:28,278
It's the first time I've seen anyone sell
himself to Master as a slave fighter.

306
00:25:29,965 --> 00:25:32,049
There are all sorts of people.

307
00:25:40,926 --> 00:25:42,635
What are you doing?

308
00:25:42,635 --> 00:25:43,807
I'm training.

309
00:25:43,807 --> 00:25:45,086
Does that help?

310
00:25:45,086 --> 00:25:46,143
Yes!

311
00:25:46,143 --> 00:25:47,895
But it doesn't seem like it.

312
00:25:51,387 --> 00:25:52,564
What do you know?

313
00:25:52,564 --> 00:25:56,116
It's not the strength of the fist
that matters in boxing.

314
00:25:56,116 --> 00:25:58,009
It's the arm.

315
00:25:58,009 --> 00:26:00,999
The arm has to be strong
for the punches to be powerful.

316
00:26:02,448 --> 00:26:04,393
Those are basic skills of the cavalry.

317
00:26:04,393 --> 00:26:05,769
Need you tell me that?

318
00:26:05,769 --> 00:26:09,477
I said that it's useless because
you're training the wrong way.

319
00:26:09,477 --> 00:26:10,599
Nonsense.

320
00:26:10,599 --> 00:26:12,773
My father taught me
to train like this as a child.

321
00:26:12,773 --> 00:26:14,023
How is it wrong?

322
00:26:19,611 --> 00:26:21,048
I'm Shuofeng He Ye.

323
00:26:21,048 --> 00:26:22,404
What's your name?

324
00:26:22,404 --> 00:26:23,681
Han Jiang.

325
00:26:23,681 --> 00:26:24,945
Your surname is Han?

326
00:26:26,926 --> 00:26:28,071
In a way.

327
00:26:28,071 --> 00:26:30,582
I'm the lord of Northern Han's
Shuofeng Clan.

328
00:26:30,582 --> 00:26:32,999
I'll be pleased to make friends with you.

331
00:27:39,446 --> 00:27:40,915
You can loosen your grip.

332
00:27:40,915 --> 00:27:42,174
I admit defeat.

333
00:27:43,608 --> 00:27:44,884
Apologies.

334
00:27:52,249 --> 00:27:55,212
You didn't go easy on me.

335
00:27:55,212 --> 00:27:56,914
I'm very glad.

336
00:28:01,928 --> 00:28:05,509
We grew up together and
often trained in martial arts here.

337
00:28:05,509 --> 00:28:08,019
How could I possibly
deceive you in any way?

338
00:28:09,377 --> 00:28:15,690
To this day, you're the one
I can trust the most.

341
00:28:44,438 --> 00:28:45,794

Your Majesty, my two sons
are already studying in the palace.

<i>[Emperor Muyun Qin]</i>

346
00:29:01,409 --> 00:29:02,910

347
00:29:02,910 --> 00:29:06,887
you don't have other sons?

348
00:29:14,647 --> 00:29:16,308
You really don't?

349
00:29:20,955 --> 00:29:24,200
I might have remembered it wrong.

350
00:29:25,131 --> 00:29:26,294
You may go.

351
00:29:27,980 --> 00:29:30,521
I take my leave.

Why do you think that
Muru Shuo lied to me?

make any speculations.

Han Jiang can come home?

359
00:30:36,453 --> 00:30:37,788
Kill him.

360
00:30:58,442 --> 00:31:00,190
How can you stand here?

361
00:31:00,190 --> 00:31:01,777
Don't you know the regulations at all?

362
00:31:01,777 --> 00:31:04,833
Where should I be standing?

363
00:31:06,249 --> 00:31:09,760
Listen, the royal family believes
in astrology and divination.

364
00:31:09,760 --> 00:31:11,779
Your family is of a lower official rank.

365
00:31:11,779 --> 00:31:13,307
You shouldn't be in the better spot.

366
00:31:13,307 --> 00:31:15,096
Come with me.

367
00:31:24,428 --> 00:31:25,763
You should stand here.

368
00:31:26,940 --> 00:31:28,500
<i>Nanku Yue Li is here!</i>

369
00:31:33,059 --> 00:31:34,354
Land the sedan chair!

370
00:31:37,481 --> 00:31:39,511
She's Empress Nanku's niece.

371
00:31:39,511 --> 00:31:41,198
We must bear in mind never to offend her.

372
00:31:41,198 --> 00:31:43,238
It's not good enough
to just avoid offending her.

373
00:31:43,238 --> 00:31:46,792
I think that we'll have to respect her
like an empress from now.

374
00:31:46,792 --> 00:31:48,699
Go to your spot.
It's going to start soon.

375
00:31:48,699 --> 00:31:50,452
Yes.

376
00:31:55,054 --> 00:31:56,763
Do you like this spot?

377
00:31:56,763 --> 00:31:58,923
I like it as well.

378
00:32:17,912 --> 00:32:21,415
<i>Summon the ladies-in-waiting
into the palace hall!</i>

379
00:33:06,262 --> 00:33:08,445

Summon the high priest!

391
00:36:11,112 --> 00:36:13,722
Summon the high priest!

392
00:36:35,947 --> 00:36:37,239
Kneel.

393
00:36:41,626 --> 00:36:44,047
<i>[High Priest, Ling He Qing]</i>

394
00:36:44,047 --> 00:36:48,998

greets Your Highness.

395
00:36:51,882 --> 00:36:53,076
Rise.

396
00:36:53,076 --> 00:36:54,534
Thank you, Your Highness.

00:39:20,242 --> 00:39:21,242
<i>[Nanku Yue Li]</i>

398
00:39:49,628 --> 00:39:51,108

399
00:39:52,108 --> 00:39:54,097
Auspicious. Stay.

400
00:39:58,293 --> 00:39:59,592
Zhang Qiu Ning!

401
00:39:59,592 --> 00:40:02,949
Inauspicious. Expelled.

402
00:40:11,940 --> 00:40:13,177
Zhen Liu Zhu!

403
00:40:14,271 --> 00:40:16,789
Auspicious. Stay.

404
00:40:20,106 --> 00:40:21,253
<i>[Wan Ying Lei]</i>

405
00:40:21,253 --> 00:40:22,978
Wan Ying Lei!

406
00:40:24,119 --> 00:40:26,681
Inauspicious. Expelled.

407
00:40:26,681 --> 00:40:28,382
That's impossible.

408
00:40:29,559 --> 00:40:30,992
That's impossible!

409
00:40:30,992 --> 00:40:33,284
Yelling in the palace hall.

410
00:40:33,284 --> 00:40:34,726
Throw her out.

411
00:40:34,726 --> 00:40:36,507
Your Highness!

412
00:40:36,507 --> 00:40:38,268
I'm Ying Lei!

413
00:40:38,268 --> 00:40:39,623
Ying Lei of Wan Prefecture!

414
00:40:39,623 --> 00:40:41,623
I've worked so hard
and hoped for this day to come

415
00:40:41,623 --> 00:40:43,891
so that I can enter the palace
to be close to you.

416
00:40:43,891 --> 00:40:45,036
What divination is that?

417
00:40:45,036 --> 00:40:46,949
What can you tell from a piece of paper?

418
00:40:46,949 --> 00:40:49,108
It's all nonsense! Nonsense!

419
00:40:58,507 --> 00:40:59,557
Your Highness, spare me.

420
00:41:00,632 --> 00:41:02,371
Gold Gourd Warriors.

421
00:41:02,371 --> 00:41:03,376

<i>[Su Yu Ning]</i>

Which one of you is Su Yu Ning?

439
00:43:08,360 --> 00:43:11,125
Ling He Qing, what is this about?

440
00:43:20,601 --> 00:43:21,661
Your Highness.

441
00:43:21,661 --> 00:43:23,905
According to the natal birth chart
of celestial bodies

442
00:43:23,905 --> 00:43:28,311

the empress of the next emperor.
