Hua Xu Yin

Episode 34

Why did you have to betray Sir?

Do you want to save your Sir?

Stop!

If you want to save her, hand over Su Yu!

If you touch even one hair on her head, I'll kill you with no burial!

You think I won't dare, right?

Stop!

I promise you.

Have them all stand down!

Stand down.

Tomorrow at this time, I'll tell you the time and location.

Okay. But you cannot hurt her.

-Let's go!-Yes!

Why do you hate me so much?

Because you are still harming Sir.

No.

The hate I'm talking about is before this happened.

You love Su Yu.

What? You don't dare to admit to it?

Sir is so good to you.

Why do you have to be like this?

Yes. When I was Ye Zhen, I did harm him.

Right now as Jun Fu, I have also harmed him.

Perhaps...the two of us cannot live in harmony in this life.

This isn't the reason for you harming him.

After we save him, you two must run far away.

From then on, we have no relationship.

What do you plan to do?

Right now, we only have the Hua Xu Tune.

I only prepared this. I don't know if it'll work.

Right now, I can only give it a try.

I don't know if this normal zither can open the dream.

But I would like to ask you to be the medium.

Okay. Not a problem.

Zhen'er!

Why is this place like this?

I didn't use my usual zither today.

The illusion isn't stable, it can break apart at any time.

Then why did you still weave an illusion? This is too dangerous!

Listen to me. They want you to be a sacrifice to exchange for the mermaid.

So before the ceremony happens, you must find a way to escape!

Why do we have to exchange for a mermaid?

The illusion is going to explode!

I'll find a way to ruin the ceremony.

My father wants to use the soul gathering sword to control your spirit.

You must use your own strength to retaliate against the soul gathering sword's power!

If I run away, what about you?

Leave with me!

I don't want to leave! I'm too tired.

I cannot leave you behind!

I don't want to bear the guilt of betraying my country anymore.

I don't want to live with so much regret.

If I live, I'll only be manipulated by my country!

I can only be like this.

Let's go!

Get up! Go with me to exchange for Jun Fu!

What's wrong with Jun Fu?

Your subordinate, that something Yan has captured Jun Fu, saying that she wants you in exchange!

-Ziyan?-Right, it is precisely her!

-I'll go with you to save Jun Fu.-Wait!

Tie him up.

What are you tying me up for, I'll just go with you!

I cannot trust you. What if you run away?

-Tie him up!-Yes!

Stop!

No one can take him away.

I need to take him to exchange for Jun Fu!

He cannot be exchanged for anyone.

This is Jun Fu, your daughter!

I've said so. He cannot be exchanged for anyone.

I am using the Emperor's name to order you! Move aside!

Only when you have the true power of the Emperor are you the true Emperor.

Or else, you are not anything.

You-!

Go!

If you want to be acknowledged, you must first acknowledge yourself.

Look at what you look like!

In your heart, you never treated yourself as the Emperor.

You have no desire to rule over the entire world!

Even if you sit upon a high position,

no one will treat you as the Emperor.

My daughter won't like you like this!

Reporting! Miss Jun Fu has been found!

Where?

Fainted outside the palace!

If the mermaid can be brought back to life,

aim the Hua Xu Tune at it's memories.

Use the Hua Xu Tune to control it's conscience.

The Hua Xu Tune can only weave an illusion.

The Hua Xu Tune was created by the mermaids in the olden days.

Mermaids are loosely descended from celestial powers,

The Hua Xu Tune's power can control the mermaids,

And make them obey to all your commands.

Precisely because of this,

so the Hua Xu Tune was locked within the truth stone.

Don't care about that right now.

Begin to play the Hua Xu Tune.

The sacred seal is the special mark of mermaids.

It can only be opened by those with mermaid blood.

Since you opened the seal, you have the power of mermaid.

You must open it while you're alive.

What's going on?

Why is it like this?

What are you doing? We were only missing one step!

You ruined everything! What are you doing?

Come back!

Your Majesty. Until now you're still protecting her?

But how does she treat you?

For that Su Yu, she purposely ruined the ceremony!

So what if she did it on purpose?

That just means that she's not emotionless.

You're always looking for excuses for her!

Your Majesty. I originally wanted you and her to marry

because she can control the Hua Xu Tune!

Her father the King of Wei can also be of help to you.

But now, you protect her in everything!

I'm really afraid that one day, she'll control you!

So what if that happens?

If she really is willing to expend effort to control me,

I would love to!

Your Majesty, since you can say something like that,

I cannot keep from thinking over your marriage to Jun Fu again.

Auntie, I listen to you in everything that has to do with the country.

I might be the emperor, but when have I had the emperor's power?

Your Majesty, are you blaming me?

All I've done is all for you!

So that one day you can become the real ruler of the Nine Lands!

Do you really not understand all that I've done?

Precisely because I understand.

So I do everything as you arrange things.

Auntie, why ask if you know the answer already?

If you don't listen to me in all of this,

then in the future I will do everything as I want to.

Your Majesty!

Your Majesty.

Since you call me Majesty,

you should treat me as the real Majesty.

You still refuse to come to your senses.

You don't understand.

You cannot love someone too much.

Unless she also loves you,

this will all just end terribly.

Your daughter has fallen for Su Yu again

and ruined our big plan!

How long will we have to wait for next time?

Time isn't a problem.

Both Su Yu and the soul gathering sword are in our hands.

Zhen'er is our hindrance.

You keep using Su Yu's life to threaten Jun Fu!

Let's switch a different method.

Let her and His Majesty marry!

If they marry and she still cannot help Su Yu, then what?

Only when she marries His Majesty can she forget Su Yu.

When that happens I'll have my own ways. Trust me!

Looks like we should help this useless Emperor.

Mister, can he still be saved?

This person's vitality has completely dissipated, and his physical body is also ruined.

There is no need to continue treating him.

I'll leave now.

I'm telling you.

I don't care if you are really dead or faking it.

I must still use your blood to finish my plan.

No one can stop by from getting the mermaid's loyalty.

Looks like these two birds are frightened.

They keep trying to fly out of the cage.

Do you need something from me?

It's good.

Your fingers are still fair and slender.

Did you know?

If a girl's hand isn't pretty, no man will want her.

There's nothing wrong with my hand.

I just ruined the ceremony.

Let's not talk about the ceremony. I can't believe you.

It's very dangerous to pass out like that!

If you fall in love, your mermaid pearl will shatter.

You can disappear into nothing at any time!

Don't be like that!

I hate seeing you cry most!

I definitely cannot see you die.

If you want to die, I have no other way to save you!

I don't want to be like this.

I'm worried that if you've really fallen in love,

something terrible will happen sooner or later.

How am I supposed to save you when that happens?

You only need another mermaid pearl.

Another mermaid pearl?

Mermaid pearls are from mermaid tears.

Only when the mermaid awakens,

can you can have their tears.

Only then can you two be saved.

Us?

But you ruined this chance!

I pretended to die for so many years and made such an effort,

only to find the way to awaken the mermaid.

I paid such a big price to get the soul gathering sword!

Only then could I get the mermaid's spirit body!

But at the most important time, you ruined it!

Let me tell you, I won't let Zhen'er become the emperor's concubine.

Are you saying that the Emperor doesn't match her?

Do you think he looks like an emperor?

No ambition and indecisive.

The most important thing is that he cannot live past one year!

You want me to put my country's dream of revival on him,

to give Zhen'er's whole life to him?

That's impossible.

You also know why he cannot live past a year!

That is because he gave your daughter the only mermaid pearl that can save him!

He loves your daughter deeply!

He is willing to give everything to your daughter, including his life!

I am also only willing to work with you because of this!

Zhen'er, you're awake?

Are you better now?

I'm okay.

Just what has happened?

Why have you become like this?

I don't know either.

Look, you're so weak. Hurry and lie down.

Okay.

Let's go out.

Why do I have to owe so much?

Don't get up!

You're still alive!

What nonsense.

Or else who would be sitting here talking to you?

That Lanyan or Lüyan or Qingyan is really ruthless!

She really cut your neck!

Let me take a look.

My heart really hurts!

I was thinking, if the weapon went in a bit further and the blood came out, what was I to do?

Later on, I took Su Yu to go exchange for you.

But your father and my aunt wouldn't let me!

I have no choice but to send men after that whatever Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, Indigo, Purple...

I think her name was Ziyan. Yes yes, her name was Ziyan!(Note: 'Zi' means purple)

And then I found out that there was no one there. Only then did I know you'd come back.

What's wrong with you?

I got it!

You're afraid that there will be a scar on your neck and then you can't get married, right?

Don't you worry about that.

If no one wants to marry you, I'll suffer a bit and marry you.

If you're willing to marry me, then I'll be willing to marry to you.

You're the one who said it!

I, Jun Fu, am willing to marry to you to be a royal concubine.

Your Majesty, what did she say? Did she agree to it?

You two have already put things like that. How can she not?

I precisely wanted her to hear what I said to the King of Wei.

How else would she so willingly marry you?

We can understand your efforts for her.

But...can you understand all our efforts for you?

Aunt, don't you just want to use me to marry Jun Fu and lock down Jun Fu and the King of Wei?

How can you say that it was for me?

What time is it now? You're still arguing with me.

No matter what method I use,

aren't you happy that she is willingly marrying you?

In the end, we're still lying to her.

How can we say that we're lying?

-Your body--Okay, I know!

You're doing things for my good.

One must use despicable tactics to do big things, I know!

But can't you let me be in peace?

Okay. I'll listen to you.

However,

I do not care if Your Majesty feels pity, or feels cheated.

I will still say this! The kingdom is most important!

Your body is most important!

Look at the way you are now.

You're half dead!

You don't even have strength to crawl out of here right?

Have you ever thought that you'd have a day like this?

Have you ever thought that there would be one day,

that no matter how many times you escaped from my hands,

in the end you still have to die in my hands?

Su Yu.

I once thought that you were superior.

I felt that only someone like you

can match Ye Zhen.

But you forsook her.

But even if it's like this,

her heart still remembers only you!

No matter how many times I closed off her memory!

But this time, I won't be so foolish.

The kingdom is nothing to me.

All I want is the woman I love.

For her eyes to have only me.

As long as you die,

her thoughts of you will be broken.

She might be very sad and brokenhearted. But I'll make her forget it!

As long as you never appear again,

there will be one day where she completely forgets you!

-Your Majesty, you cannot!-Move aside!

Your Majesty, you cannot!

-Let go of me!-Your Majesty! Your Majesty!

-Princess Yun ordered that no one can harm this criminal!-Let go of me, I have to kill him!

-Your Majesty! Your Majesty!-Let go of me! I have to kill him!

Your Majesty, you cannot!

Your Majesty! What's wrong?

Your Majesty! Your Majesty!

Hurry!

Miss Jun Fu!

-What's the rush?-His Majesty's old illness has come back!

-Your Majesty.-Go out!

Your Majesty. Your Majesty, I am Aunt.

Auntie! Auntie save me! I feel so terrible!

I won't take the medicine! It's this medicine every time!

It's useless!

Listen to me, eat the medicine.

I won't eat it, take it away!

Teacher, let me try.

Your Majesty, I am Jun Fu.

Every time my head hurts, I obey your words.

Right now you must be good and take this medicine.

Come.

It feels a bit better.

I'll sleep a bit more.

Teacher, just what illness does His Majesty have?

What illness? He has the anxiety-escaping sickness.

Anxiety-escaping sickness?

You know that when this illness occurs,

he will feel as if there are ants crawling or biting all over.

It started with some pain and itchiness.

It will grow slowly with age.

This illness will entirely enter the bones.

Enter his heart and lungs.

Making his life a living hell.

But his medicinal skills are so great!

Why?

He cannot heal himself.

This is our Jun family's fate!

When it first starts, it's just a little painful.

But his mind will be affected gradually as the attacks grow more.

Until one day...when he won't remember anything.

He won't understand anything.

It's as if...

So...that mermaid pearl was originally for saving his own life?

When the great doctor Baili Jing was alive, he once said

he can be cured only when after he revives from death.

Only this mermaid pearl can save him.

But he gave the pearl to you.

Jun Fu. The good intentions he has for you,

do you understand them?

I understand.

It's good that you understand.

All of my efforts,

were just for you two.

Stay by him for a bit.

So...you were so silly.

Why are you so silly?

Are you still thinking about Su Yu?

No.

You don't need to lie to me. Fathers know their daughters best.

You've always loved Su Yu, right?

But what has he brought you?

Lies, danger.

A destroyed kingdom and revenge.

Limitless pain.

And the Emperor has always loved you.

He gave his entire life's hope to you.

He embraced your stubborness.

Can you still not see it?

There is no father in this world who is willing to make his daughter feel pain.

I just hope that someone can love you and give you a life's happiness.

If you still cannot forget Su Yu,

then you are fated to be in pain for life.

For you, I can only kill Su Yu.

Destroying the source of pain.

Forget Su Yu and marry the Emperor.

Then I can let him live.

Father, then what about your plan to revive the kingdom?

If my daughter isn't even happy,

what use is reviving my kingdom?

Bring Su Yu to me.

Bring Su Yu to me.

Kill Su Yu!

Kill Su Yu!

Kill Su Yu!

Mu Yan gege!

I don't want you to die! I don't want you to die!

Why are you so silly?

You knew I was lying to you, why did you have to follow me here?

Did you know?

Father is becoming ever the more frightening!

I don't want to lie to you!

What should I do? I don't want you to die!

For you, I won't die.

I won't die.

Mu Yan gege.

Your Majesty!

Your Majesty?

Cursed people.

We are all cursed!

You're sleep walking again.

Don't leave me. Be together with me!

Okay, I won't leave you. I'll be with you.

Come! It's time to sleep.

Don't leave me.

Don't leave me!

Don't leave me.

What should I do?

Jun Mansion

Your Majesty!

Your Majesty!

Your Majesty!

You don't need to look. He's left.

You can rise.

Did His Majesty sleep walk again?

Yes.

Look, he even comes to you when he sleepwalks.

That means that all his thoughts day and night are of you.

He seems really childish and playful on the surface.

But deep inside, he is actually quite lonely.

No one can entirely enter his world.

You won't either.

Perhaps you don't want to understand him.

Do you really want to marry His Majesty?

I...

No matter if you really want to or not,

the minute you enter the palace doors,

you cannot do as your heart wishes.

You must put all your effort into being a good wife.

I truly do want to be a royal concubine,

much less let go of Su Yu.

Could it be that after I've said so much,

you still don't understand?

I am now aware of my destiny.

The Kingdom of Wei's destruction let me understand a princess's duty.

As a member of the royal family, I must think for the country.

I cannot choose the way my life is.

I definitely cannot be stubborn.

But since it's like this,

if I am to be a royal concubine in peace, to break off my thoughts,

I only want Su Yu to live.

You can.

I can let Su Yu live.

But I will only let him go on the day we marry.

I just knew that you don't trust me.

I trust you!

But I don't trust Su Yu.

Okay! I agree.

We cannot kill Su Yu.

If we kill him,

we have no way to give an answer to the King of Wei.

I didn't kill him.

The prison guards there didn't do their job well.

They backed out last minute.

That is good then.

I didn't kill him, not because the guards failed in their task.

If I wanted him to die,

the current Su Yu is not my match.

Then it is...?

I suddenly don't want to win this way.

Because I am the Emperor.

Even if I am a hollow Emperor,

I am fated to be high above others.

If I kill Su Yu like this,

I will lose to him for life!

I would have no other chances to win.

What I want isn't Jun Fu's body.

I want her heart.

Why is there no news about that illegitimate child?

It's as if he just disappeared into thin air!

Ever since the last time when he broke into the palace, there has been no other news.

Just where is he hiding?

Perhaps he's already dead?

Dead is good too.

But someone like him won't die without a trace.

I'm just afraid that there will be something big going on behind him.

Then it will become even harder for you to become king.

How about we force abdication?

Since Father is extremely ill now anyway, he cannot deal with court matters.

The throne is going to be mine sooner or later!

Stupid!

Do you not know the rules of the Nine Lands?

Anyone who hasn't gotten a throne that the Emperor has personally crowned,

if the Emperor is ever angry,

he can always take back your throne!

And with the conflict between kingdoms, you won't have a peaceful time on the throne!

As long as I can be the king, I'm not afraid!

Have you not seen?

A good example is Rong Xun from the Kingdom of Zheng.

He might have gotten the throne, but the problem is that all the lords of the court do not acknowledge him.

The other kingdoms are taking the chance to make trouble too.

If Rong Xun didn't have methods, he couldn't be able to suppress them!

If Rong Xun can, then so can I!

-You have that sort of power?-Of course!

Mother...what do you think I should do?

Forcing the King to abdicate is our last resort.

Moreover, your father has stationed his trusted confidantes outside his palace.

It's impossible to take him down easily.

Is there really no chance?

If we still don't take action now,

many things will spiral out of control.

That's right. There are rumors

that the Wandering Flame has appeared in other kingdoms.

What?

Report!

Madam, this is a letter from your family.

- Leave us.- Yes.

Qing'er, do you remember the promise made 20 years ago?

Mother, who sent that letter?

Go back first.

Aren't you already dead?

♫ Before going far away, ♫
