Hua Xu Yin

Episode 13

King, the Crown Prince has broken out of Wu Ying Valley but his location is unknown.

-Looks like my son is in a very dangerous situation.-Then what plan do you have, king?

Send news out

that I gave another secret compartment to Shen An for him to give to Su Yu.

What if someone takes away the secret compartment?

Don't be afraid. Only Su Yu can open the secret compartment.

Then wouldn't that make the Crown Prince's situation even more dangerous?

I have my plan. Send men to deliver this to Su Yu.

An'er, the Kingdom of Chen's court has been in an uproar recently, and the king's body is not well.

Madam Liu has the influence and power, and may take over.

I know you are stubborn and are extremely loyal to the king. But there is still a burden in your heart.

You must assess the situation properly, and utilise people around you,

This is the way to success. I hope you think through things again.

Looks like His Highness' health is really failing.

It's just...I'm not sure if I can do what he tasked me with.

This world is so big, and I don't know where the eldest prince is.

There hasn't been any news about the eldest prince.

What the king gave to me,

What should I do instead?

Madam.

Madam. I heard that Miss Liu is preparing her wedding.

People wear clothes and horses wear reins. When you wear this red wedding outfit,

You have the air of Madam.

All the details were done the same way it was when Madam was married over.

You might be a concubine, but everyone must know

that you are the one who Young Master really cares about.

You are the future real mistress of the house.

I will go bring the headpiece over.

Qiqi. We have waited a long time for this.

From now on, you are the female master of Cui Sha Palace.

I heard that you were all preparing for the wedding in a festive manner.

Since I was bored, I came to take part in the festivities too.

Are you waiting for Rong Min?

You don't need to panic. I sent someone to talk with her.

I would like to have a good chat with you.

What are you afraid of?

Are you afraid that I am still angry that you took my place as the one who saved Shen An?

Or...

Your child isn't actually his?

Did you think I would believe you and Rong Min? I don't believe you.

You think I will still be like the way I was in the past,

that no matter what you do or say behind my back,

I wouldn't care nor ask?

Because I'm proud,

did you think you could make use of it?

This wedding robe is really beautiful.

It has both a dragon and a phoenix.

Shen An is the dragon and you are the phoenix.

What about me?

What do I have?

I have this ugly scar on my hand.

I am a dragging rock that is blocking you and Shen An's happiness!

I want to let go now.

Since Shen An doesn't believe me,

since he thinks that he loves you,

why would I try to snatch away this love that I won't be able to get?

But I can't go back.

My hands are already crippled.

The doctor says that I can never use a spear again.

He also forced me to leave my spear.

I'm nothing now.

Liu Qiqi.

You stole everything from me.

Shen An destroyed my everything.

Today,

you want me to see you together.

What right do you have?

Since you two made me so unfortunate,

If I don't get back at you,

How can I forgive myself?

Liu Qi Qi, remember this.

You can keep this a secret from everyone,

you can keep it from Shen An's heart,

but this status,

I will never give it to you.

This is what you owe me.

Teacher, I have pretty much mastered this Hua Xu Tune.

You did extremely well.

You picked it up faster than I.

Once you give it one more try, you can have it completely mastered.

But...last time I played the Hua Xu Tune,

The King of Tang still hasn't woken up. Your Majesty, does this mean that the Hua Xu Tune

really is extremely poisonous?

Can I still play it?

Jun Fu, that is his choice.

It's okay this time.

The King of Tang chose on his own to stay in the illusion. He

had great ambitions, yet little skill, and was also very greedy.

He's always coveted the royal throne.

If he continued to rule the Kingdom of Tang,

Then the world would have been filled with fighting soldiers long ago.

Leaving him in the illusion is the real fortune to the world's citizens.

Is this the case?

Jun Fu.

You must remember that we saved you, took you in

and taught you the song of the Hua Xu Tune.

We let you live again and gain the power of the Hua Xu Tune.

We didn't do it for nothing.

You are our hand and sword

for us to use.

Don't think that whatever you do, it doesn't concern you.

You must remember that.

- Yes. - Have a good rest.

How was I like in the past?

You still don't remember anything?

I don't know how you were like in the past too.

But when I found you, you were severely injured and almost died.

I know this.

You also said that when you found me, I resemble someone else.

That's why, you saved me.

Yes.

You really resemble each other.

What's wrong with you?

Nothing, I'm fine.

Where is your acquaintance then? When can I meet her?

You said that when you found me, there was no one beside me.

Is she related to me? Could there be such a coincidence on earth

that two person would look so alike?

I would like you to meet her too but it's a pity that...

What?

She is already dead.

Was she your lover?

It can be considered so.

At least I treated her as such.

Your Majesty. Are you sad?

Even though I have forgotten everything

but I would still know if someone is sad.

She must be very important to you, right?

It's okay. I have you now.

Promise me that you will always be with me.

You saved my life.Of course, I will be with you.

Really?

Madam. Are you okay?

I'm fine.

As of today,

Now, I cannot even pick up a cup.

Madam.

It's nothing.

I feel so bored.

Madam. Why don't we got out?

I heard a zither master came to the city.

She is different from the others. She can soothe the problems and troubles that people have.

She is in Junlin City right now. People of all ages says that she is miraculous.

Why don't we go and take a look?

Ease away problems?

They're all usually con men.

In this world, if someone could really do that,

Why would there be so many desperate people?

But it won't hurt to give it a try! We can consider it going out to have some fun!

Madam. This zither really sounds nice.

This sound is indeed miraculous.

Hearing this sound, my heart feels much more at ease.

All my problems have disappeared.

Thank you, Zither Master.

Next.

- She's out. - Next.

Do you have problems?

Who wouldn't have problems on earth?

Listening to the zither can help you forget your worries.

It's not impossible to forget the problems of this world.

As long as you erase it from your heart, problems won't be problems.

If I could easily erase it,

then how can I call it a problem?

Okay, listen to the zither then.

There is no beginning and future for us.

Help!

Be careful.

Men, come quick. Protect Madam.

Protect Madam, quick.

Are you okay?

Are you okay?

Zhen'er?

Thank you Madam for saving me.

Why did you save me?

You look exactly like an acquaintance of mine.

You are pretty much one and same.

Exactly the same? I'm curious now. Where is she?

Can I see her?

She is already dead.

Dead?

But when I saw you,

I feel that perhaps, she is not dead.

Just now, you said that your name was...

... Jun Fu.

Jun Fu?

It is the name Master gave me. It is derived from the meaning "as light as dust, disappearing with one sweep."

Why did your Teacher give you this name? Where is your mother?

I don't know.

You don't know?

Because I was injured and I forgot a lot of things.

I should say that I forgot everything.

It was my Teacher who saved me, taught me to play the zither and gave me a name.

Other than that, I don't know anything else.

Your teacher is...

A woman in the mountains, there's no need to mention her name. You won't know her anyway.

Someone like that could teach you the zither?

A simple girl from the mountains,

Why would people try to kill you?

Those assassins were highly skilled in martial arts, they were not normal people.

Don't you think that all you've said is hard to believe?

I know you are the wife of the Kingdom of Wei's Generalissimo. Are you interrogating me?

If I made you frightened, you can put me in prison.

What I can only say are these.

You have misunderstood.

I'm just...

I only hope that you could be that acquaintance of mine.

But you said that she's already dead.

Yes.

Dead people can't come alive again.

It's getting late.

After going through something like that you should be tired too.

Have a good rest here.

Wait.

Will you take me in?

You can stay as long as you like. This courtyard was originally...

So, it's that easy.

Madam, you're going to keep a Jianghu girl whose origins are unknown in the palace just like that?

Wouldn't it be too dangerous? Who knows if she is a good or bad person?

What if she's here to harm you?

So what if she is a good or bad person.

I decided that she could stay.

Aren't you afraid that His Lord...

Do you think I would still care about this?

Ye Zhen.

Ye Zhen.

Come.

Slowly.

You are finally awake.

Where am I?

Where else could it be?

Are you a fishermen? That you could escape from the ocean over there,

After all these years, you are the only one.

Did you save me?

We cannot consider it saving.

You were lying on that beach there. I couldn't watch you die.

Have some hot soup.

Here.

Young man. Where are you from?

I'm from the Chen kingdom.

Chen kingdom? That's very far away.

Come, have more.

Come, lie down.

MIss Liu.

Miss Liu. Eat something. You haven't eaten anything for the whole day.

I know that you are very sad. We already did what we should do.

I've done all that I could, yet it still wasn't useful enough.

Do you think Young Master really fell in love with Madam?

Young Master and Madam are different.

With Young Master's personality, even if his heart was touched, he won't do anything.

Miss Liu.

What's wrong with you?

Miss Liu. Are you feeling unwell?

Miss Liu. You could be pregnant.

What did you say?

- So how? - Congratulations, Generalissimo.

- Are you saying that... - Congratulations, Young Master for having a child.

Qi Qi.

Qi Qi.

My child is in there?

I'm going to be a father.

I, Shen An, am going to be a father.

What's wrong?

Foolish girl.

Why are you crying?

This is a happy event. You should be happy.

Sir, Miss Liu is worried.

What is she worried about?

A girl in the palace who got pregnant before marriage..

it's a shameful act worthy of death.

Even though it's a joyous matter that Miss Liu is pregnant with your child

But if the main house pursues the matter, this isn't right. If...

Who would dare to touch my child?

You can say that but without any status...

Don't say anymore.

Qi Qi. Don't be angry with me.

I know that you are suffering.

I owe you a status. It's my fault.

Wait for me.

Wait till I give you a big wedding.

I will give you and our child

the best in everything. Okay?

Do you still remember that

I didn't allow them to touch anything. It's exactly the same as when you left.

Zhen'er. What's wrong?

- I'm fine. - Did you remember something?

Madam. I already told you that I'm Jun Fu.

- But... - The dead can't be revived.

I feel that the Princess is not dead.

Do you know?

When she passed away, I never dreamed about her.

I thought that she blamed me for not keeping my promise to be with her.

Thus, she's not even willing to appear in my dreams.

But when I saw you,

I think it's because she is not dead at all.

How could there be someone on earth who looks exactly like someone else?

Your smile is the same too.

Have you ever thought that

Perhaps, this is not accidental.

Perhaps, I came to let you mistake me for her.

Are you?

So what if this is the case.

Everyone has their own secrets in this palace.

Everyone has their own personal intentions.

If I were to think deeply about everything,

what's the point then?

I want the fantasy of happiness.

Even if it's a fantasy, at least, it's still happiness.

Thus, even if you are not Ye Zhen,

in my heart,

you are Ye Zhen.

Send the best food and necessities over.

You must also send over the two bottles of medicine in storage that the king gave.

- Yes. - Whatever she wants, there is not need to discuss with me, just provide her with them.

Also, prepare the wedding as soon as possible.

You don't need to worry about a guest list. Qiqi is afraid of strangers and I'm afraid the child will be harmed.

but don't save on the dowries.

Yes.

I'm going to let Madam know about this now.

Wait.

I will go and tell her personally.

Coming back to the Wei kingdom was the most happy time of my life.

Sometimes I really don't know what I keep pushing on for.

Those whom I love and treasure,

they have all left me.

And I must continue to live in this strange place that I'm not familiar with.

I couldn't complain, couldn't have any regrets

because I made the choice myself.

But Zhen'er,

sometimes, I would ask myself.

How long can I hang on?

How do I still want to carry on?

Even though I can't see you but in my heart,

You are the most beautiful. No girl in this world can take a place in my heart anymore.

but if you don't object,

I would like to take you as my wife.

I must be in an illusion.

If not, you won't appear in front of me

just like in the past.

Shen An. Is this real or just my illusion?

Song Ning.

Don't say it.

I don't want to wake up so soon.

Song Ning.

I know that you still can't accept my marriage with Qi Qi

but Song Ning, Qi Qi is pregnant.

Are you here to tell me that you need to marry Qi Qi?

You didn't need to come. I won't stop you.

Your love for each other and marriage to each other has nothing to do with me.

Just do whatever you want.

Wait.

Just what does this count as?

Song Ning?

I didn't think that this would happen too.

The promise that I gave Qi Qi,

I cannot forsake it even more now.

Song Ning. I need to keep my promise.

I hope that you will understand.

But you are holding my hand.

Shen An.

Do you know that when a woman puts her hand into a man's,

she is hoping that she can get his promise of a lifetime's love and affection?

Can you do it? To me.

To Liu Qiqi.

Yes.

Since you two are expecting a child,

the person who should let go of the hand

should be me.

Ye Zhen.

Ye Zhen.

You have recovered.

We will eat shortly.

Sir.

So, it's you.

Stop there!

Stop there!

Kill!

-Sir.-As I expected, the Kingdom of Zhen is secretly attacking our borders.

Send this information to Wulei City.

You must also tell the king that I am asking him for permission to take soldiers out.

Yes.

I want you to protect his secret compartment.

No matter what the situation is, you must not open this.

Hand this to Yu'er when you see him.

I sold out on you.

You have suffered a lot. You must hate me.

You were betrayed by the one whom you trust and you almost got killed.

Sir, you should hate me.

You saved me this time.

We are even now.

If there is someone in this world

that can escape from Wu Ying Valley's prison,

that person must be you.

So I was always waiting for you here, because this is a place that you would definitely pass by.

As long as you are alive and back,

our past

will all be wiped away.

As long as you are alive and back, no matter what you do in the future,

I will follow you.

What if I didn't show up then?

I will guard this place forever then.

Ziyan, let the past be in the past.

Sir, where are you going?

Thank you for taking care of me for the past few days. There is no problem with my health now.

Thus, it's time for me to leave.

Aren't you going to ask why I'm waiting for you here?

I'm not concerned about this anymore.

What are you concerned about then?

You are still going to find her? But she is already dead.

We can only be sure about that after thorough investigation.

Do you know what it was that motivated me to escape from Wu Ying Valley?

It's because I believe that Ye Zhen is still alive.

What His Highness did, it was all for you.

For me?

Did you think that His Highness already gave up on you

and wanted you dead?

Isn't this so?

If this is the case,

Do you know why His Highness arranged for me to be by your side since I was young?

He told me that

even if I die, I must protect you totally.

It is hard to guess a ruler's heart. I do not know what the king is thinking in his heart,

but what I know very clearly that

everything that His Highness has done, it was all for you.

Even when I sold out on you,

it was His Highness's wish to give you the experience.

Experience?

I could simply give him the post of the Emperor

But this position doesn't simply represent one's status,

or power.

It also represents the lifeline of tens of thousands of citizens.

The achievements of my ancestors led to this.

He is the best representation of my ambition to rule the Nine Lands.

The one who can sit in the Emperor's seat

must not just be like anyone.

He must be able to experience all kinds of difficulties

If he wins, he will gain the world. If he loses, he, along with our people, will be obliterated.

You just know that I was once a chess piece of Madam Liu's.

but you didn't guess that

the order for me actually came from His Highness.

♫ Before going far away, ♫
