Your Highness!

Your Highness!

You're awake at last, Your Highness!

Your Highness,

I was late in bringing assistance,

I deserve to die!

Where's Miss Shen?

Where did she go?

She's gone after Lu Yuan

She alone?

Where's the reinforcement troops of Danyang?

Your Highness...

Self-imposed mobilization of the troops

is a treasonous felony.

Don't act impulsively.

If Military advisor Ji is in the interest of King Jing Ling,

please deploy the troops of Danyang back to the encampment.

Great Consort Sun

I'll go look for her!

Your Highness!

Your Highness, there are still survivors here!

Give me a hand!

Rescue them first!

Isn't this Lady Shen?

I can't believe you tracked me down here.

I have to admire your courage.

The Song of Glory

Three strikes,

all of them nearly cost me my life.

Episode 10

Even this foundry

that I've kept hidden for years,

you were able to find it.

You're truly not to be underestimated.

But now look at you,

I could easily

have you killed.

I won't let you go even if I were a ghost!

What's the use of being tough.

You still lost miserably.

I'm in a good mood today,

so I'll spare your life.

I want you to see with your own eyes,

what I've arranged for you today.

What do you mean?

Look over there.

Big...

Lu Yuan,

you're trying to frame Shen Zhi?

How can just one Shen Zhi be enough.

Despicable!

What a blessing in disguise.

Just wait and see.

Let's go.

Dad, wake up!

Dad! Dad!

Dad!

Zhi...

Check everywhere, now!

Yes!

What is this place?

Where's Lige?

By order of King Peng Cheng,

I'm here to investigate the foundry and arrest Lu Yuan.

Father, why are you here?

And what's with my sister?

Foundry...

Lu Yuan...

The totem of the Suiyuan Army!

Hurry up and leave this place!

Minister of Justice,

the sound of the explosion just now

came from here!

General Shen?

Senior! Senior!

Senior!

- Senior! - Lige!

Senior!

Quick, help her up!

Senior!

- Lige! - Senior!

Lige!

Senior is poisoned!

What's the point of all this?

Miss Shen! Miss Shen!

Let's head back first!

Miss Shen!

Miss Shen!

Miss Shen!

Miss Shen!

Miss Shen!

Miss Shen!

We've looked everywhere, she's not there!

Miss Shen!

Search!

Minister of Justice,

these weapons

all have the totem of the Suiyuan Army on them.

Minister of Justice, please have a look,

all of these have

the totems of the Suiyuan Army on them.

Minister of Justice, please investigate this thoroughly.

Why these totems

were stamped on the blade

is completely unknown to my father and I.

This is a false accusation!

With both the witnesses and the evidences present,

I'm afraid that it''s hard to convince people

with just the General's word.

This has nothing to do with me and my son.

We don't have any ill intentions!

Minister of Justice, what are you waiting for?

Take them down now!

Military Protector!

Stop it!

What a huge crowd!

Your Highness,

why are you here in the wilderness

at the middle of the night?

Why?

This place,

Military Protector Lu could be here,

but I couldn't?

I heard a rumor that

Military Protector Lu

was secretly casting darksteel

on Qixia Mountain.

If I don't come here to find out the truth,

and say something fair for Military Protector Lu,

I'm afraid Military Protector Lu might not be able to shirk the blame.

Your Highness,

what you've heard is not false!

But it's not accurate enough.

It's someone else who has been secretly casting darksteel,

the father and son of the Shen family.

Is that so?

How come it has turned out to be

Shen Tingzhang and his son?

Looks like this rumor

really can't be believed easily!

Your Highness,

the evidence is as solid as a mountain,

it's not a rumor.

Minister of Justice!

Your Highness,

we indeed found

darksteel casted with the Suiyuan Army's totem.

There are more than four thousand pieces of it.

Since I'm here personally,

I will certainly investigate it thoroughly.

What's the need to be angry, Military Protector?

Minister of Justice,

besides these darksteel,

is there any other evidence?

No.

Minister of Justice,

you can't be so hasty when investigating a case.

The fire in the furnace hasn't even gone out yet,

but there's not

a single blacksmith in sight.

Send someone to find them!

They might be

the key witnesses to this case!

Yes!

What's with these

four thousand pieces of darksteel?

Shen Tingzhang, Shen Zhi,

you must explain

the complete details of this matter,

not leaving out a single word,

to the Minister of Justice clearly.

I,

with the reputation of the Shen family's

three generations of loyal generals as guarantee,

I,

have been wrongly accused.

I hope Your Highness will investigate this thoroughly.

Minister of Justice!

Here.

Temporarily detain Shen Tingzhang and his son

in the prison.

Investigate the whereabouts of the darksteel

and search for witnesses.

As you command!

King Peng Cheng's mansion

Do you think it is the Shen family?

Your Highness,

General Shen's loyalty and courage

have always been my admiration.

There are many uncertainties in this case,

so before the truth is known,

I dare not make any judgment.

But Your Highness can rest assured,

I will be impartial in handling the case.

The person who planned this

has thought it through thoroughly.

The purpose is to

put the Shen family to an end.

I believe that

they won't leave any traces behind.

It won't be easy to clear the Shen family's name,

so do something for me.

Stall some time.

Yes!

I will investigate the matter thoroughly,

not sparing any details,

any uncertainties,

to prove the innocence of the Shen family.

But the current situation is extremely unfavorable.

If we can't find

any evidence that can prove

the innocence of the father and son of the Shen family,

the law will have to prevail.

Besides, this is a matter of great importance.

If His Majesty were to ask...

As long as I'm here,

I won't let

the death of a loyal servant happen again.

Just do as you're told.

As you command!

I shall leave now.

Your Highness!

Your Highness!

Any news about her?

Searched everywhere, still no sign of her.

Search Qixia Mountain again,

even if you have to turn the whole mountain upside down!

Yes!

Time is running out...

Grand consort Sun.

How is Xuan?

Don't worry, Grand Consort Sun.

King Jing Ling is fine.

That's good.

As long as Xuan is fine.

What about those troops of Danyang

that Xuan privately mobilized?

They're already on their way back to Danyang,

no one will be alerted.

Then it's foolproof.

What's going on?

I have no idea.

Your Highness,

it's my fault,

I have ruined Your Highness's great plan.

Don't worry,

I will save you both!

Brother Shen Zhi!

Zijin!

General!

What is going on?

Don't worry.

Take care of my mother for me.

Get back!

Go!

Wait for me!

Okay!

I believe in you.

I believe in you.

I'll wait for you to come back.

You did a great job this time.

Thank you for the compliment, Military Protector.

There's one more thing

I want you to do.

As long as it will benefit the Military Protector,

I'll definitely help.

But,

you also have to promise me one thing.

As long as you are loyal to me,

I will fulfill your wish.

This is a major crime that will cause the extermination of three families,

You have to make sure that

I won't be implicated.

If I don't have a way out,

how can I be of service to the Military Protector?

All right.

I promise you.

Has your fake sister returned to the mansion yet?

Why?

She's back to the Shen's Mansion?

Military Protector didn't get her?

San Jiu Tang

Senior, here's the medicine!

Come.

Senior, how's senior?

I have no idea what kind of poison this is.

But this poison is extremely poisonous,

once it hits the heart,

it will immediately invade the heart and lungs,

and no medicine can help.

Drinking this medicine

can temporarily suppress its toxicity.

Senior, let's leave!

No more revenge!

Even if we kill Lu Yuan,

kill King Peng Cheng,

our brothers and sisters

still won't be coming back!

Let us leave!

Take Senior with us!

Senior!

Stop him!

Young Master, you can't go!

Young Master, you can't go!

- You can't go! - Get out of the way!

Mother,

I...

You're not allowed to go!

Lige hasn't returned yet,

what's going on out there,

we have no idea!

I don't care!

I'm going to ask King Peng Cheng

why father and brother

have become treacherous bandits overnight!

Feng!

If King Peng Cheng could have stopped it,

he would have done it already!

It's not that simple!

Then I'll go into the Royal Court!

Feng! Feng!

- Madam! - Madam!

Young Master!

Young Master, you can't go!

You should listen to Madam!

- You can't go! - Get out of my way!

- Young Master! - Young Master!

- You can't go out there! - Young Master!

Let go!

Calm down, Young Master!

Young Master, you can't go!

Feng!

Sister Zijin!

Where are you going?

I...

I'm going into the Royal Court!

Are you going to lead an army to break into the prison,

or are you going to raid Jian Kang Palace?

I...

Are you trying to hurt them

or save them?

Do you know

how many people in the Imperial Court

are expecting you to do so?

If you do so,

the Shen family's name of loyalty

will be lost.

That's just confirming that

the Shen family has committed the crime of rebellion.

Let me ask you, are you still going?

Young Master, please do as you're told!

Zijin.

Madam.

Zijin...

Zijin,

the situation we're in right now,

I'm afraid you might be dragged into it.

It's better if you leave.

Madam,

before Brother Shen Zhi left,

he promised me.

He said he would definitely marry me.

So from today onwards,

I am a member of the Shen family.

I believe that Brother Shen Zhi and the General

will definitely turn the situation around.

All we need to do now

is to wait for them to return safely.

Uncle Zheng,

get the doctor.

Yes.

Sister Zijin,

is your hand all right?

Let's go back to the house.

Miss Shen!

Miss Shen!

Your Highness!

How's it going? Have you found her?

No news!

Your Highness!

Could it be that Miss Shen

has been captured by Lu Yuan?

Your Highness!

Your Highness!

Something's wrong!

What is it?

Last night,

Lu Yuan, along with the Minister of Justice,

surrounded the foundry,

arrested Shen Tingzhang and Shen Zhi

on the spot,

and found four thousand pieces of

darksteel swords

engraved with the Suiyuan Army symbol.

They were caught together with the loot.

Now the Shen father and son

have been put into the Ministry of Justice.

I was saying that they wouldn't have responded to the battle yesterday!

There's clearly

a bigger conspiracy going on!

I will go look for Fourth Brother right now!

Your Highness,

when the Shen father and son were arrested yesterday,

King Peng Cheng was also present.

Fourth brother was present?

This King Peng Cheng,

he must be trying to shield Lu Yuan,

which is why he let General Shen take the blame!

Huo Yun,

don't be hasty just yet.

Take the craftsmen

and find a safe place

to settle down first.

I'm worried that Lu Yuan

will kill you all.

All right.

Your Highness,

I know more about the foundry than anyone else!

Just look for me whenever you need me!

Okay.

As soon as you have any news about Miss Shen,

let me know immediately!

All right.

It seems that the General Shen and his son

will not be able to avoid this misfortune.

Tell me about it!

If it wasn't for you withdrawing the troops by yourself,

would General Shen and his son be arrested?

It's my fault,

but I can't disobey

Great Consort Sun's order.

Lu Yuan has been setting this up for a long time.

I found out that

there used to be

many points of entry to the foundry,

but they were all blocked off.

Now

all that's left is

the one where the lady left a mark.

What a nice trick to lure and trap someone in.

Any other new findings?

Around the foundry,

we found many

deliberately hidden footprints and wagon trails.

There must have been a lot of heavy objects

shipped out from the foundry.

Lu Yuan rushed the work day and night,

it wouldn't just be for this.

There must have been a large number of weapons shipped.

Continue to track down

where these weapons are being shipped to

and who they're for.

This must be Lu Yuan's

even bigger conspiracy.

Only with thorough investigation

can we clear

General Shen's name.

Yes!

The girl,

any news on her?

Not yet.

No news

is probably the best news.

Keep an eye on the small boat.

If she ever appears,

let me know immediately.

Yes!

Your Highness,

the Princess Consort is now in good condition.

The Princess Consort's poisoning was very strange.

Did you find out anything?

Physician Chen said that

the bottle of poison,

taken together with

the Princess Consort's favorite mushroom soup,

would produce a toxic effect.

The person who was poisoned

may appeared to be weak and faint,

as if the toxicity is very strong,

but within, the damage was minimal.

The person who gave the poison was very careful

and knew the Princess Consort's daily life

extremely well,

but it seems that the person

has no intention to harm her life.

No intention of harming her life?

Your Highness!

Your Highness!

Why did you make Ji Shu

withdraw the troops of Danyang?

So you knew

that's the troops of Danyang?

Is that something you can mobilize without permission?

Mobilizing the troops without permission is a felony!

You behaving so recklessly,

have you ever thought of the consequences!

Lu Yuan is forging weapons without permission,

and treating people's lives like dirt!

Shut up!

You mobilized the troops without permission,

and rashly launched an attack!

Even if you catch Lu Yuan,

you'll still end up

being accused of treachery!

It's my duty to

eradicate the wicked and rectify them!

Your Highness,

you have gone through so much trouble to stop me.

What is the point of all this?

What is the point of all this?

Aren't you aware of it?

The only reason

you're standing here today, safe and sound,

is because of all the trouble I've gone through!

Where are you going?

I'm going to tell Fourth Brother right now that

this is all Lu Yuan's doing!

It has nothing to do with General Shen!

Xuan,

the reason your Fourth Brother

won't tell you anything

and won't even see you today

is because he doesn't want you

to be involved in Lu Yuan's affairs!

Why should you be on the frontline,

insisting on going your own way

and make me worry!

Xuan,

I am really tired!

I beg of you,

every time before you do anything,

can you think of me

and stop taking such risks?

I'm not asking you

and Lu Yuan

to be able to support each other,

but at least get along with him,

and avoid causing any more trouble,

okay?

Your Highness,

we are set on different paths

that will never cross.

I'm sorry that I can't follow your orders.

Xuan,

being in the royal family,

you can't trust anyone.

Your closest relative

was never King Peng Cheng!

Xuan,

you're not a child anymore.

You should understand

my good intentions.

Your Highness, I...

I'm tired.

Fourth Brother!

The General Shen and his son have been sent to prison!

What are you going to do about it?

Are you just going to

sit there,

doing nothing,

just to save yourself?

Grand Tutor Cui was victimized!

The General Shen and his son were victimized!

How many more people do you want

victimized by Lu Yuan?

Tell me,

why did you mobilize the troops of Danyang without permission?

I'll do anything to get rid of Lu Yuan!

If His Majesty finds out,

this is a crime of treason!

Should we just let him

keep on being so arrogant

and think that no one can stop him?

Then why did the troops of Danyang

suddenly return?

You never believed me!

Why aren't you eating?

Father...

Eat up!

It's going to be a tough battle,

only with a full stomach can we fight.

Father,

King Peng Cheng's plan this time

was so meticulous,

but Lu Yuan still managed to find a loophole,

and he even used such a dirty trick,

how despicable!

I'm worried that...

Don't worry.

Believe in King Peng Cheng.

Father,

what are you thinking?

Your sister.

Lige?

I don't know,

why is Lige

involved in this matter.

Between Lu Yuan and her,

what kind of grudge was there?

I wonder how she's doing now.

If she really fell into

Lu Yuan's hands...

Father,

I don't understand either.

That day, when King Peng Cheng asked you

why you appeared at Qixia Mountain,

why didn't you say anything?

I can't!

Lige is about to be married into King Peng Cheng's Mansion,

and it involves a lot.

If this matter were to be spread,

Lu Yuan,

would definitely use Lige

to make a big deal out of it.

I'm afraid it will only affect the original intention of the marriage

between King Peng Cheng and the Shen family.

Right now,

the situation is very unfavorable

for both King Peng Cheng and the Shen family.

We must not cause any more trouble.

I understand.

You guys bring the medicine to Madam's room,

I'll go and get some snacks for her.

Yes.

Who is in there?

Sister Zijin,

it's so late,

what are you doing here?

I was passing by just now,

and I heard some noise in here,

so I came in to take a look.

It must have been

the sound the doors and windows made

when the wind blew just now.

You're so attentive.

Why aren't you sleeping at this late hour?

Father

and brother

are trapped behind bars.

I'm worried,

but there's nothing I can do about it.

I want to go to the Buddhist temple

and pray for them.

Don't worry too much.

They will definitely come back safely.

All thanks to you for today,

or else with Feng's hot temper,

I don't know what kind of trouble will he caused.

But Sister Zijin,

you disregarded the etiquette of the nobles

and stayed at the Shen's mansion.

I'm worried that

if the word gets out,

it will affect your reputation.

Treat others with sincerity and act with courtesy.

Not seeking to become a better person,

but to be able to help others in need,

this is the virtue of a noble women.

I have nothing to be ashamed of,

so why would I care

what others say?

Sister,

you're such a heroine!

By the way,

I still have to bring madam some snacks.

You should go back and get some rest, too.

Let's go.

San Jiu Tang

Look over there.

Senior!

Senior, Kong Cheng, I'm leaving now!

Hold it right there!

Where are you going?

Going home!

You're going back to the Shen family?

Do you know that

Shen Tingzhang and his son are in trouble?

My father and brother,

how are they?

Paraded the streets

and sent to the Ministry of Justice.

The darksteel blades found in the foundry

were covered with the totems of the Suiyuan Army.

Shen Tingzhang and Shen Zhi

were also found at the scene.

The Minister of Justice caught them with the loots,

Lu Yuan is not that simple!

- Stop there! - Senior!

Do you know you've been poisoned!

Your poison

won't be that easy to cure this time!

Senior!

Any news on Lady Shen?

Not yet.

Although Miss Shen is a woman,

she hates evil as one does one's enemy,

and she's willing to risk her life to get rid of Lu Yuan.

That's right!

If she can do so,

how can I shirk the responsibility!

Your Highness, Lady Shen is requesting to see you.

Miss Shen!

You finally showed up!

Why do you look

so frail?

Where have you been?

Are you hurt?

I've sent a lot of people to find you!

Thank Your Highness for your concern.

I'm fine.

It's just that

my father and brother are now in distress.

Your Highness,

what is this all about?

Not to worry,

we'll give the matter some further thought.

Your Highness!

It's bad, Your Highness!

What's so alarming?

Your Highness!

Military Protector Lu and his men

are raiding the Shen's mansion.

Military Protector Lu.

Madam Shen.

With such a huge crowd,

what is the Military Protector planning on doing?

Imperial ordinance.

The Shen's mansion receives the decree.

Li Xian, Minister of Justice, and Lu Yuan, Military Protector,

who presided over the private foundry case,

will seize the general's office in Anbei

and all books, documents,

poems and writings therein,

will be confiscated.

There shall be no room for mistake.

I accept the decree.

Don't worry, madam.

I, the Minister of Justice,

will handle this case impartially.

Sorry if I offended you

with today's duty.

You're just following orders,

no need for the formalities.

Search the place!

Search!

No!

Don't move!

Secretly forging darksteel sword

is a treasonous crime punishable by death!

I'm sure that this Shen Tingshang

must have made all the necessary preparations.

Come on!

I'll see who dares to move!

Stop it!

Zijin.

Isn't this the Lang Ya Wang family's

Lady Wang?

We're here to investigate a case,

so please leave.

I'm already engaged to Shen Zhi.

My husband's family is in trouble.

How can I just stand by and watch?

Do you want to be in the same boat

as the treasonous traitor?

The Wang family has been unblemished for generations,

don't sully the family name.

A treasonous traitor?

The Military Protector was simply ordered to investigate the case,

and the decree said,

only seize the books and documents.

However, you were humiliating the Shen family in such a way.

ignoring the decree of the Imperial Court in such a way,

it's awfully disrespectful.

By the way,

you are unworthy to even mention,

Lang Ya Wang family, these four words.

As expected of the Wang family's Lady Wang,

such a sharp tongue.

Sir!

Minister of Justice,

I found a stack of official records

in the study.

It recorded the Shen family's income and expenditure

for privately forging weapons over the years.

Do you have anything else to say?

The innocents are innocents!

Bring all the evidence.

I'm going to ask King Peng Cheng for a ruling.

Please!

That Lu Yuan is so despicable!

When did the Shen family

ever suffer such humiliation?

So many books and letters

that appeared out of thin air overnight!

Who did all these?

Who?

It can't be!

No way!

Sister Qing, what are you saying?

Nothing! Nothing!

You must have something going on! Speak up!

Feng!

No way!

Sister Zijin

would never do so!

Sister Zijin?

What are you talking about?

No.

It's just that I...

It's just that yesterday,

I saw Sister Zijin

in father's study...

Yes.

I passed by the study yesterday

and I heard some noise,

so I went in to check it out,

but I didn't find

anything strange.

After that, I ran into Qing.

Sister Zijin, please don't blame me.

I were just feeling anxious.

It's just that,

father's study

is usually not accessible to outsiders,

but you...

Enough!

I'm believe that

Zijin wouldn't do such a thing.

Now that Lu Yuan is eyeing us,

the most important thing for us

is that we stay united.

Sister Zijin,

I'm sorry.

Mother.

Lige!

Where have you been these past two days?

Mother, I'm fine.

I'm sorry for making you worry.

Do you know?

Your father and your brother

are in trouble.

Don't worry, Mother.

I'll think of a way

to save father and brother.

Your Highness,

my General's loyalty

is unquestionable,

he is not the kind of person who secretly forges darksteel.

Now that he has been framed,

I beg Your Highness

to help save my General's life.

- Mother! - Madam!

Madam, please get up!

Mother!

I believe that the General

is not a treasonous person.

I will do my best.

Thank you, Your Highness!

- Lige! Sister! - Miss Shen!

What's happening to you?

Miss Shen!

Stop scaring your mother! Lige!

Hurry up and get the doctor!

Lige!

Wake up!

Wake up!

Stop scaring your mother! Stop scaring your mother!

Lige!

Jia Ning Pavilion

What's going on?

Miss Shen is severely poisoned.

Poisoned? What's the poison?

This poison has never been seen before,

forgive me for my incompetence.

Doctor!

You guys should quickly think of a way

to find the antidote.

In this situation,

I'm afraid it won't last much longer.

I shall be going.

Sister will be fine!

I will now go to Jian Kang City

and get all the doctors there!

Why is this happening!

In the course of a day,

first the General and Zhi

were charged with treason for no reason

and put behind bars!

Lige has just come back,

but she is poisoned and her life is hanging on the line!

Why is everything

being aimed against the Shen family!

Who have we offended?

Who have we offended?

Madam!

Madam,

I still have things to be done, I shall be leaving now.

Madam,

take care of your health.

Mother,

sister is blessed with good fortune.

Lige,

mother won't let anything happen to you.

Mother must not let anything happen to you!

Nothing can happen to you!

Lige...
