Hua Xu Yin

Episode Three

Legend says that once the hands of those born on a Lunar Day

are put onto the Cliff of Truths and their true form revealed,

they will bleed to death.

Bleed to death?

Correct. Should we wait until the reveal of her true form before capturing?

I will not let her die.

Sir,, it's too early. It hasn't shown its true form yet.

Grab him.

Shoot her down!

Go after them!

Go after them!

How come it's you?

If not me, then who else will come and save you?

Looking back, you've already saved me three times now.

I think it's because I owed you money in my previous life.

Yes. Must be quite a big amount of money.

Who exactly are you?

My name is Mo Yan. Mo as in thinking, Yan as in I'm right even if I don't say anything.

In that moment,

I was confused by all the beauty before my eyes.

I thought I liked him from the bottom of my heart.

The same kind of like as the way I liked Father and Song Ning.

But not long after, I finally realised,

that this kind of liking was different from all others.

This kind of liking is unforgettable.

This sort of feeling,

Became my fated calamity.

Where are your wings? Why have they disappeared?

I folded them.

Folded them?

But I would like to fly a bit longer.

Mu Yan gege, when will you take me flying again?"-gege" is an endearing term used towards older males

If you say fly, then we'll fly.

That Hua Xu tune...

What Hua Xu tune?

You don't know?

Know what?

You don't know why those people took you there today?

Why are they trying to kill you?

I only remember that they brought me to a strange place.

And then I fainted.

After I awoke,

I felt drowsy.

And then I saw a ball of flame, right before my eyes.

And then?

And then you saved me!

Mu Yan gege, why do they want to kill me?

Because you are a fool.

Give it to me.

What?

The brocade box.

Brocade box?

The brocade box where I kept the antidote for you.

I think you won't have any need for it.

Why don't you return it to me?

What are you looking at? Never seen a handsome guy?

So, you saved me just because of that brocade box.

Definitely. Why would I have saved you then?

Of course.

No way.

Of course. I'm the only one who knows where it is.

If you want to find it, agree to one condition.

I just saved your life, and now you're taking advantage of me?

You really are an ungrateful little brat.

If you won't agree, then forget it.

Right now, do you still want to discuss conditions with me?

Okay, tell me what you want.

The condition is simple. Send me home.

Isn't it just sending you home? Where is your house?

Do you see that mountain over there?

You have to go over that mountain and across a river,

past a village, and you're there.

It's that mountain?

Sorry sorry! I didn't mean to!

Fabric, who wants to buy fabric?

Look here, this fabric is really good.

- Take a look at this. - Textile for sale.

Mu Yan gege?

Mu Yan gege?

- Boo! - Annoying!

- Isn't it cute? - Cute? I get scared easily.

Promise me that you'll never scare me again.

Let me think about it.

That's too ugly. Let's pick a nicer one.

Where's a nice looking one?

This one. How is it?

You like this one?

You think this one looks nice?

Miss Ziyan, what's that girl's origin?

It has been several days. The prince has been staying in this textile town.

We can't go on like this.

His Highness has ordered that we escort him back.

I know

this girl is holding something which belongs to the prince.

Don't touch me.

Why did the prince gave up on the change to get the Hua Xu tune

to save that girl?

I don't know what he was thinking.

I still want to play.

You're pretending to sleep.

- Are you going to leave? - I should sleep too.

Then will I see you tomorrow?

What do you think?

I met that girl. The one that's always with you.

Is she here to take you away?

Sleep. Tomorrow morning you'll find out.

The brocade box that you wanted is on the table.

Actually, I don't need you to send me home.

I just wanted you to stay by my side.

But do you know? These days you were by my side, I was very happy.

But I know that we will finally go our own ways.

I can't interfere with what you need to do.

I'm going to sleep.

I suddenly feel like

nothing will make me happier than staying with this lady.

Should I take you back to the Kingdom of Chen or give you up?

Mu Yan gege,

My name is Zhen'er.

All of my family calls me Zhen'er.

Such a pretty name, you can't forget it.

Zhen'er.

Young Sir, how is it?

The holy flame is gone.

Young Sir, that lady lied to you.

Zhen'er!

Can you see what's on the tip?

It's the holy flame.

Why is the Kingdom of Chen's holy flame with her?

Previously, I put the holy flame into the box and hid it on her body.

When she returned it to me, I discovered that the secret compartment has been touched.

Are you saying that the holy flame went into her body?

You must know that the holy flame is completely yang.

An ordinary person has no way of withstanding it.

Because she is born on a Lunar day, her body could absorb the holy flame.

Ziyan. What we need to do now is to take out the holy flame.

This way, we will be able to protect her life.

Mu Yan gege.

-How are you doing?-You're still here?

-I'm not dreaming?-Silly girl,

If I leave, you won't be able to live.

Why?

How does it hurt so bad?

Because you created trouble again.

Will I die?

If I don't agree to let you die, you won't die.

I knew that I will be fine when you are here.

Zhen'er.

Ziyan. Guard outside. Don't let anyone disturb us.

Before anything happens, I will definitely save you.

Palace of the Nine Lands.

Your Majesty. You should be happy that the girl has been saved.

Happy about what?

I wasn't the one who saved her.

If I were the one who saved her, would I still be angry?

Your Majesty. You have been angry all the while because of this?

Am I that petty?

Yes.

Say that again! Stop there!

Bend down.

You dare to say that about me?

Forget it.

Talking about this,

Do you have any news about the girl?

No. The entire city has been on a lockdown, in order to find the princess's whereabouts.

Don't move.

Don't even move.

What is this?

The person that you are asking me about, she was away in front of others.

It's not like you didn't see it.

How am I going to hand her over to you?

You went back on your words.

Anyone from the seven kingdoms could have kidnapped the princess.

It's not impossible that you wanted to take everything,

and intentionally planned this.

You wanted to keep Hua Xu Tune for yourself, so purposely planned this.

I believe that simple spoken words are meaningless.

What's most important now is that we join forces to find the princess.

- You can't enter here. - What are you doing?

- Who are you to control me? Get out. - You don't know me?

I don't care who you are. Leave.

- Your Majesty. p My greetings to you, Your Majesty.

Hear that?

You're that girl's father?

Your Majesty. Why are you here?

-I know where to find that girl.-You...

It's a hunch.

Your Majesty, please forgive my offence.

We can rely on these bugs to find the princess.

Just follow me.

Why are you asking so many questions? If you don't trust me, go back.

Sir. What's wrong with you?

Sir. Are you okay?

The magic to transfer the holy flame is indeed amazing.

Ziyan, the two of us should hurry back to the Kingdom of Chen now.

Return to the Kingdom of Chen?

Master, His Majesty wanted us to find her.

Can't we take her back with us?

Her life has been preserved.

If we take her back with us, she will definitely die.

But Sir, you've always taught me that to do big things,

you cannot have any reservations, and cannot soften your heart.

But what's wrong with you now?

-You are starting to preach now.-Sir...

Sir. I will wait outside for you.

Silly girl. I already said that I will save you.

I have already gotten your life back.

What happens next will depend on you.

You must live.

Mu Yan gege.

Mu Yan gege, don't leave.

Mu Yan gege, take me back with you.

Silly girl, I need to leave.

My father , the king, has already sent me to find me. The Prince of Wei Kingdom is already looking for you.

If we are both together, we will be caught. If you go back alone, at least, you will be safe.

Don't leave.

The bug went that way!

She is here.

It seems like her body received some trauma.

What should be do? Is her life in danger?

But it seems like someone has cured her. She's fine now.

Why am I always a step behind?

Zhen'er, you are awake?

Father.

Where are we?

- We are already in the Wei kingdom. We are on our way back to the palace. - We are in Wei kingdom?

When you found me, was there anyone with me?

When we found you, you were alone.

Zhen'er. What happened during the past few days?

- Can you tell me? - Father, I don't want to talk about it.

I don't want to talk about it.

That day, I seemed to have grown up in the span of one night.

The carefree days of my youth felt like yesterday.

If I were to say what happened in these days, I would say that I finally understood what sorrow meant.

I understood what it felt like to constantly think of someone.

The innocent days of a young girl have completely disappeared.

No need, I will use my usual.

But...this is the sash that His Majesty gave you. You should use it, Sir.

Okay, I will do whatever you say.

Father, during the Worship Moon Festival, I stole away the person born on the lunar day.

But because she was injured by the holy flame, she died during the journey.

I have also brought back the holy flame again.

General Shen Bin of Chen

My greetings to His Highness.

You did very well.

Our Kingdom of Chen has protected this holy flame throughout the generations.

And the holy flame has been the sign of our king.

You were able to protect our holy flame. You deserve the position of Crown Prince!

Yan'er. You didn't let me down.

Remember. The holy flame has become one with you.

The holy flame is your life and your life is the holy flame.

It represents your status as the Crown Prince and also your responsibility.

The people of Chen are the people of the Holy Flame.

The son of the flame will be our kingdom's crown prince!

Long life the Emperor.

Zhen'er. Look at the fun toy that I brought you.

In the past, didn't you like this leather shadow puppet?

I finally found the best leather shadow puppet master in Yong'an city to create this for you.

Thank you, father.

Father.

I finally know why you don't allow me to go to Yong'an city.

It's because I'm born on the Lunar day. If I go, something bad will happen to me, right?

It's not that. If you turn on the Hua Xu tune, you will die.

Thus, I could not reveal this. I could only stop you from leaving.

Why can the tune be turned on only by a person born in the Lunar day?

I'm not very clear about this too.

Why do so many people want to turn on the Hua Xu tune?

The legend of Hua Xu tune is a kind of magical illusion.

It will go through an illusion to control a person's heart.

The one who activates the Hua Xu tune will rule the nine lands and own the entire world.

Is it that all men of the world want to get this Hua Xu tune and own the world?

- Father. - That's right.

- Why are you asking this? - Does this include you?

Of course, it's not the same for me because you are my daughter.

Of course, I must use every efforts to protect you.

At this moment I understood through Father's gaze,

Perhaps there is only one person who only did it to save me,

A person who has no interest in the entire world. There is only one.

Kingdom of Chen, military camp.

Reporting.

Come in.

Eldest prince, according to intelligence, our army has captured Sangyang Pass.

That means the war with Wei kingdom is starting.

- Who issued the order? - It was His Highness.

His Highness?

Father.

You already heard about it?

Congratulations father, for capturing Sangyang Pass.

-This war with the Wei Kingdom has started just in time.-What congratulations?

You released someone who was born on the Lunar day for your personal reason.

You really disappointed me.

You need to understand,

Yan'er.

You are my son. Su Xie is also my son.

I treat you two the same.

The holy flame is simply a test for you two brothers.

I understand.

You like the Princess from Wei kingdom, right?

-I do not.-You don't? If you didn't, would you have saved her from the Worship Moon Festival?

- Moreover, you also saved her life. - I only saw her as a girl

bleeding to death. I pitied her. That's why I saved her.

You are so clueless. Don't you know that your mother is eyeing your position as the Crown Prince?

Only by keeping your position, you will be able to gain a foothold on Nine Lands.

I understand.

Yan'er. It's good that you understand.

I will give you another chance. Take the army to Wei kingdom.

We must grab that person born on a Lunar day first.

As per your order.

Kingdom of Wei, Quexia Palace.

I know that the Kingdom of Chen has captured Sangyang Pass. To keep our promise,

I am sending a request for marriage with the princess,

and protect the person born on the Lunar day.

At that time, our two countries can work together to rule the world.

Your Majesty. It's critical.

I think if we don't hand over the Princess,

We run the risk of destroying our kingdom!

What ideas do you have?

Princess Yun sent her emissary to request for the marriage.

How about we agree to the marriage to the Son of Heaven?

This way, we would have the protection.

Marriage is possible but we must not hand over the Princess to the Chen kingdom.

I have already sent a letter to the King of Wei to have their princess be married to you.

What? Why didn't you tell me?

The princess is indeed a little mischievous.

but with her lively personality, when she's with you,

It is indeed a nice pairing.

Furthermore, I can see that you treat her differently compared to other girls.

Am I wrong?

You are right.

All these years, she is the only one who dare to go against me.

If you insist that I marry her, at least, it won't be boring if I marry her.

You really want me to marry her?

If you don't have any objections, we will do it immediately.

Princess. Look at how big this Southern Sea Dragon pearl is.

You won't find another in the Nine Lands.

Leave.

Princess, there's also a pair of "Mutual Understanding" (gift of horns).

It is said that if you put something in one horn, even if you lose the other horn...

Everyone, leave.

How long are you going to stay angry with me?

As long as you don't force me to marry someone who I don't love,

I will stop being angry with you.

Zhen'er, this marriage was chosen from among many choices.

This is the best choice for you.

Just look at all the treasures from just now. They are all the most valuable treasures from Junlin City.

The Son of Heaven gave you so many dowries.

It shows that he is sincere about you.

Father. But his Aunt has always wanted my life!

It's not like you don't know about this.

The Son of Heaven. He will never harm you.

Handing you over to him is the safest solution.

Is my happiness less important than your country's safety?

Do you think I could bear to marry you off?

I don't have a choice.

You are my gem

but the country is in difficulties.

We need to find a strong ally to support us.

Only then can we fight against the Kingdom of Chen's wolf heart!

Though the Emperor no longer has the power to lead the Nine Lands,

but in name, he is still considered a ruler.

Once you become his Royal Consort,

the Chen kingdom will not dare to make a move on the Wei kingdom.

Father. You have always said that you are doing this for me

but I can see that it's because you want to protect your position.

I don't want anything in my life

except to marry the person I love. Can't I do that?

How could you say this?

Do you know why I'm doing this?

You have really disappointed me.

How many defense soldiers are there?

Five thousand.

Out of 500,000 soldiers, he gave me only one percent of the army.

- He is really afraid that we won't lose. - It's not us, it's you.

If the Crown Prince fails at victory, your post will be given to another person.

Then why haven't you left?

Even if you are your father's only son, it would be hard for you to escape punishment.

Because as long as I'm here with my five thousand-strong army, I will definitely capture Xinye City.

Crown Prince. You are having problems. We have been buddies for many years.

Don't hide anything from me.

My father wants me to conquer Wei kingdom because I released someone born on the Lunar day .

He wants me to grab that person.

Let's compete in our military skills then.

You take some soldiers and walk through the mountain, attack from behind.

I guess that if we drag out the time, we can attack from both sides and break into the Kingdom of Wei.

Princess. General Song is setting off.

- She left a letter for you. - She's setting off?

Princess, seeing my words is as if you are seeing me. I have to set off, please do not miss me.

When the country is in danger, even as a female, I have to contribute my strength.

You and I are close sisters. I know your personality very well.

Even though your marriage to the Son of Heaven isn't what you want,

In anything that happens, there will always be something blocking you.

Princess, you must hold your people as priority.

With this trip, the heavens will decided if I live or die.

I only hope that you can truly grow up and take responsibility as the country's princess.

This expedition is dangerous, but I am not afraid.

I pray to the Heavens to aid me in the defeat of Chen.

Does even Ning'er think I should marry the Son of Heaven?

Kingdom of Wei, city walls

It's him.

General Song! Have you been well?

General Song. After saying our farewell that day, I didn't think we would meet again so soon.

Last time, I didn't kill you because you were a female warrior.

I think you have an idea how things will go?

I don't want to fight with you this time. Why don't you send someone else to seek his death instead?

Wait.

General Song, if you insist on fighting with me, I won't stop you.

but let's set the rules between us first.

The victory will be decided by us.

Whoever loses will hang up the white flag.

If the one who loses isn't willing to lose, we can fight again.

But I'm just afraid that the Kingdom of Wei's city walls will be all covered in white flags.

That won't be a pretty sight.

I also look forward to see the sight of your Kingdom of Chen's walls covered in white flags.

Kill! Kill! Kill!

Kill! Kill! Kill!

Sir. What do you call this move of yours?

This is a delay tactic.

But what if General Shen can't defeat them?

It won't. It definitely won't happen.
