Are you sick?

No.

I'm not sick.

Then why are you drinking medicine?

What's wrong?

This medicine is to prepare to bear a child.

What medicine to prepare to bear a child?

Don't talk nonsense.

I didn't talk nonsense.

This is the medicine to prepare to bear a child

Why?

You've figured it out?

Stay in the mansion.

Not killing anyone anymore?

You're going to a housewife?

All right, drink it.

The physician said

you two need to drink the medicine.

Then only can get a child.

All right, I'll accompany you.

You first.

You first.

You first.

You...

Together, share it.

It's so bitter.

You eat one too.

Oh right.

Those Concubine Li's

sword, dagger, crossbow

and others,

keep it all.

Yes.

No!

Wait, stand there!

What did you say just now?

I...

The Song of Glory Sub by iQiyi & Ripped by skysoultan

Episode 49 ♔ Follow @skysoultan on Instagram ♔

Uncle Zheng.

You startled me.

You

are the same as your father.

Useless.

I...

Then how did my father

pursue my mother?

You want to know?

What are you doing?

You scared me in the middle of the night.

I don't know what's wrong...

I tripped.

It must be because of this threshold.

Threshold?

Tomorrow, I'll ask Uncle Zhou

to chop it off.

It's all right.

Mei Qi.

What are you doing?

This is Pangu's clothes.

I'm thinking that

a few days later,

you're going back to Pangu with me.

So,

I sew a cloth for you.

Come, try it on.

It suits you well.

-This is good. -Mei Qi.

This is pretty.

But don't be anxious.

I came here

to talk with you.

What's wrong?

Something on your mind?

I...

Mei Qi, have a seat.

Mei Qi, you know that

my father and brother is gone,

my sister's married to King Peng Cheng.

There's only me and my sister-in-law in this house.

If I go to Pangu,

what about my mother?

Mei Qi.

You don't know how important you are

in my heart.

I really want to be with you.

But,

I'm worried about my family.

I'm worried about my mother.

In this case,

let's bring your mother together.

And your sister-in-law too.

All of us go to Pangu together.

I thought about it.

But my mother is old.

If ask her

to live at another place,

how can she adapt to it?

Then...

Then what do you mean?

You don't want

to be with me anymore.

No.

Of course I want to be with you.

Men in Shen Family

are loyal

to whatever we do.

Once we hold hands,

we won't let go.

Really?

Of course.

All right.

If you don't want to go to Pangu,

I'll accompany you at Jian Kang City.

I'll follow you wherever you go.

As long as Pangu's not at war,

it's no big deal.

All right.

If there's a war, I'll go to the north.

Let's guard the north.

Guard Pangu.

All right!

This is settled then.

The father and son

both need my kick.

Your Highness.

Minister of Ceremonies said that

there'll be heavy rains in the south this year.

Summer flood is coming.

I think

we should repair the river course

to prevent disaster from happening.

How much reserve are left in the treasury?

With the implementation of the new policy,

food relief is sent to several places.

The treasury is hard to support others now.

The only budget we can use right now

is military expenditures.

Flood season is coming,

step up the repair of river course

to ensure the people's safety.

Your Highness.

Water conservancy

is indeed an act of taking care of the people.

But the military is weak in the north.

Wei is eyeing covetously.

I think

military expenditures must not be moved.

Your Highness.

If Wei attacks again,

Song won't be able to resist them.

If we can't protect our country,

the people will be at loss too.

I know about your concerns.

Since the battle last year,

both Song and Wei are badly hurt.

Now, Wei Army

won't dare to act recklessly.

Besides,

flood season is near.

It's about the lives

of tens of thousands of people in Song.

We can't turn a blind eye.

As for the armaments,

I'll think of something else.

What's your plan?

Please tell us earlier

so that we can be rest assured.

Yes, Your Highness.

No matter what,

it won't be more important than the north.

Yes, Your Highness.

Military expenditures must not be moved.

Military expenditures must not be moved.

Your highness, military expenditures must not be moved.

Must not be moved, Your Highness.

Must not be moved, Your Highness.

Military expenditures must not be moved, Your Highness.

Must not be moved.

Must not be moved.

Military expenditures must not be moved, Your Highness.

Military expenditures must not be moved, Your Highness.

Must not be moved, Your Highness.

Military expenditures must not be moved, Your Highness.

Must not be moved.

Shut up!

Everyone.

Regarding the military expenditures,

I'll reconsider it.

Wei Army haven't taken any actions.

Let's focus on flood issue first.

If people are restless,

when we're at war,

it'll affect the battle.

I agree with His Highness.

Perform irrigation works to ensure the safety of the people.

Thank you, Your Highness.

Your Highness, Xie Hao has been punished.

The position of imperial secretariat is vacant.

There are many affairs to be settled.

Please appoint a person

to do the general affairs.

Do you have any suggestion?

Your Highness.

When Your Highness goes to the north,

King Jing Ling raised provisions and deployed troops.

Before this, he has helped in cleaning the household registration

and the implementation of new policy.

And in the Jingzhou riot,

King Jing Ling is calm,

he appeased the people and made great contributions.

I think

King Jing Ling can be the imperial secretariat.

We recommend King Jing Ling

to be the imperial secretariat.

Your Highness, I...

You're right.

King Jing Ling has great achievements.

But His Majesty

just appointed King Jing Ling as the commander of central army.

Organize military affairs

and reconstruct the defence of Jian Kang City

are King Jing Ling's utmost priorities now.

If he's to be appointed as imperial secretariat as well,

I'm afraid he can't handle it well.

For this matter,

let me reconsider it

and discuss on another day.

Yes.

Vice Minister Wang, please wait.

Vice Minister Sun.

I wonder why

did you recommend King Jing Ling

to be the imperial secretariat?

His Majesty praised King Jing Ling

for his loyalty and bravery.

Why can't he be the imperial secretariat?

Back then, Lu Yuan...

At that time,

he accused Great Consort Sun's actions.

Though King Peng Cheng

didn't pursue the matter,

he can't

trust King Jing Ling

like before again.

If he doesn't trust him,

why did he

let King Jing Ling control the central army?

That's His Majesty's decree.

What can King Peng Cheng say?

If King Peng Cheng refute,

he'll expose

his own jealousy.

Today, you recommended King Jing Ling.

If you offend King Peng Cheng,

then...

Besides, don't you think

the temper of King Peng Cheng

has changed?

King Peng Cheng

is indeed more hot-tempered recently.

King Jing Ling.

You know His Highness is hot-tempered recently

but you're not cautious in your words

and talk nonsense

outside Zhijian Hall.

Do you want to die?

We just worried about the government affairs.

We just worried about the government affairs.

I'll leave now.

I'll leave now.

Hurry.

Your Highness, King Jing Ling's here.

Fourth Brother.

Sixth Brother.

Are you not feeling well?

Just now,

I already noticed you're not in a good state.

It's nothing, I suddenly got a headache.

Better let a physician to check on you.

It's just occasionally headaches.

There's nothing to check.

Maybe it's because of

the implementation of new policy,

I slept late.

Good if you're all right.

Today, everyone

recommended you to be the imperial secretariat.

I rejected it.

Are you angry?

No.

You have your reasons

for your decisions.

However,

do you have a good candidate?

Not for now.

The position of imperial secretariat

needs to balance all parties.

He needs to be slick and matured.

A slight of carelessness

can cause resentment by others.

You have a distinct personality

and care about comradeship.

I don't want you

to be involved in complicated affairs.

It's better for you

to be this free and genuine.

My fourth brother is here.

I can be free

and do as I like.

I don't need to be afraid of anything.

By the way,

two days later is mother's birthday.

Don't forget about it.

I know.

Sister.

You're here.

You paint well.

The characters in your drawings

are lifelike.

My grandfather likes to paint landscape.

I like to paint characters.

I like to draw their smiles,

their tears,

their emotions.

Where are you going?

Today,

I want to take you to a place.

To see the purest

and the most beautiful smile in the world.

I got you.

Ciyou House

Sister, we're here.

Sister Lige.

Sister Lige.

Sister Lige.

Do you miss me?

Yes.

Today, I brought

many good foods and toys for you.

Do you want it?

Yes.

Come.

Slowly, don't fight.

Don't worry, everyone will get it.

Slowly.

Xiao Hu, you fight with your brother again.

Let me see.

It's delicious.

-Sister. -Careful.

Today,

I

brought a new sister here.

It's Sister Yunzhi.

Hello, Sister Yunzhi.

Is she pretty?

Yes.

Do you like her?

Yes.

Let me tell you.

Sister Yunzhi's painting

is amazing.

Do you want her

to paint for you?

Yes.

Yes.

What do you want me

to paint?

A tiger.

A pigeon.

A chick.

A duck.

So many?

Then what should I draw?

Draw my mother.

You've never seen your mother,

how can she draw it?

That's more the reason I want to draw it.

I want to know

what my mother looks like.

I also don't know

what my mother looks like.

I want it too.

I want to draw my mother too.

I want too.

I want too.

I want to draw.

All right.

I promised

to draw your mother, all right?

Yes.

Thank you, Sister Yunzhi.

We like our mothers.

Thank you.

As long as you like it.

Thank you, Lige.

Why can't I go?

Zuiyi Store

is the place for men to drink.

Why do you want to go there?

In the past, I hid in

Tian Xiang Dance House.

What did you promise me?

The plants in the backyard

should be trimmed.

And your cooking skills.

It should be improved.

My inner clothes has turned yellow.

But you

didn't make a new one for me.

Xiao Xin!

Your Highness, we...

Your Highness, the carriage is ready.

Sanbao, find a place.

Let's take Concubine Li for a walk tomorrow.

Yes.

You worked too hard recently.

It's time to relax.

Master Wang, thanks for coming.

I'm grateful.

Don't mention it.

Since you have good wine,

I must be here.

Master Wang.

This way please.

Chief secretariat?

I didn't expect

you'll have the mood too.

I invited them.

Master Wang.

You're all officials.

To socialize more

are a good thing.

Master Wang is right.

In that case,

chief secretariat and others,

this way please.

Let's drink.

Please.

Zuiyi Store

Master Wang.

Today, you must drink your fill.

Cheers.

Master Wang, cheers.

Cheers.

Master Wang.

I recently got

an authentic painting of Gu Kaizhi.

I would like to invite you to examine it.

Sure.

Take it here.

The vast sky.

Looking at the bird flying away while playing guqin.

Gu Kaizhi drew this

for Ji Kang's "Enlisted Scholar".

Please look at the phrase, "looking at the bird flying away".

The man looked far away.

It's full with longing.

It's so vivid.

It's not a fake.

It's really outstanding.

Master Wang has good eyesight.

Your Highness.

Your Highness.

Ji Kang hid himself in the mountains

because of the political issues.

Therefore,

"Enlisted Scholar" was born.

It's about unrecognized talent

and down-hearted.

Yes.

Gu Kaizhi's painting

is based on a poem,

but the man in the painting

look into the far distance.

I want to ask,

what kind of

state of mind is this?

Your Highness.

We're willing to be like the painting,

to look at the world

and do our best to serve Song.

Your decisions are

for the long-term benefit of Song.

As the officials,

we should work together

and do our best.

That's right.

That's right.

I hope you won't let

your family down

and be responsible.

Everyone be united

to promote the new policy

and benefit the people.

We'll follow your teaching.

Your Highness.

We're in need of talents now.

I want to recommend a person.

Master Wang is a noble character

and highly reputable.

He can be put in an important position.

I heard that you have three likings.

Paintings, calligraphy and wine.

Although you're not involved in politics for many years,

I know that

in early years,

you're a close assistant

to Emperor Gaozu.

Are you willing to be an official?

I can't, Your Highness.

Over ten years ago,

with Emperor Gaozu's permission,

I've retired.

I no longer

involved in government affairs.

Now, I only think about

calligraphy, paintings and wine.

I can't take the important task.

Now, there are many talents.

And you open the selections.

The prosperity of the country is just around the corner.

I hope you

can let me

retire in peace

at my hometown.

They are inexperience.

The government still needs

experienced officials like Master Wang to guide them.

The post of imperial secretariat is vacant.

It's unfavourable for the stability of the government.

With your ability,

you're more than competent for it.

Don't

refuse anymore.

Please reconsider.

Master Wang.

His Highness has given the order.

You just accept it.

That's right.

Just accept it.

Master Wang, just accept it.

Thank you, Your Highness.

What are you doing?

In Xie Hao's incident,

if without your help,

I won't be able to

take him down.

I admire your righteousness.

You care about the people.

I'm willing to do my best.

Don't mention it.

You're impartial

and just.

You're really strong

and reputable.

I admire you.

Your Highness.

I've accepted the post of imperial secretariat.

I'm the official of Song.

I should

respect you.

You should

follow the system.

If what I did the right thing,

please reward me.

If I did wrong,

you don't need to care about our relationship.

You shouldn't

praise me again.

I'll leave it to you, imperial secretariat.

It's my responsibility.

How is it?

It's windy

and with bamboo fence.

It's not bad to be at the countryside.

Concubine Li

chose this place herself.

Concubine Li said that

you're busy recently.

You should rest well.

So,

she searched all over Qixia Mountain

to find this

quiet and simple place.

You're considerate.

Come.

Take a look

what have I prepared for you.

Have a seat.

You're so well prepared.

Thank you.

Concubine Li prepared these in advance.

To let you

rest well,

she's particularly concerned about this outing.

Didn't you say

I'm not good in these?

I take this opportunity

to prove that

I can do it.

Look, it's pretty, right?

Yes.

If Concubine Li

wants to do something,

she can do it well.

This time,

you just rest.

Leave everything

to me.

I guarantee to make you satisfied.

I'll make you a pot of tea first.

All right.

I'll just sit down and relax.

All right.

What's wrong?

No water.

It's all right.

I'm not thirsty anyway.

I'll ask Sanbao to get the water

later.

Concubine Li, the fish is ready.

You can roast it now.

Yes.

Roast fish?

Yes.

I arranged it for you.

It's interesting and fun, right?

It seems interesting.

Let's go.

Wait a minute.

What's wrong again?

I don't think we have firewood.

How can we roast it?

I guess I'm not suitable

to do these.

You

prepared such a pleasant

scenery and room.

It's already enough.

As for firewood...

Can you do it?

Your Highness, let me do it.

Don't come here.

I want to chop wood for Concubine Li.

Sit down.

Are you tired?

No.

I'm extremely happy.

Wait for a while.

It'll be ready soon.

When you chopping wood,

you're quite cute.

Have you seen enough?

I just took a closer look.

I think

you're not ugly.

Did you think

I was ugly before this?

Do you want me to say

you look handsome?

Do you believe it?

I don't want to compare with others.

I want to be your only one.

All right.

You're my only one.

In my heart,

you're the prettiest man.

Are you satisfied?

You can be taught.

I just wanted to rest my eyes.

But I

fell asleep.

We seldom go out.

Of course you need to rest.

Before this,

you're so busy.

If you can stay here

for a few more days,

that'll be even better.

I'm busy.

Of course I can't stay too long.

I can stay with you

for two days.

I'm already contented.

Come.

What happened to your hand?

Why is it shaking again?

Again?

It happened before?

I'm just tired.

I'll be all right after resting.

Don't need to be too worry.

You're shaking badly.

Let's go to San Jiu Tang

and let my senior take a look.

It's not easy for us to come out.

I don't want to ruin your mood.

What are you talking about?

Your health is the most important.

Let's go now.

All right.

Look.

The meat can't be too much.

When you use force,

don't be too hard.

So that's the way to do it.

I want to make one too.

All right.

How is it?

Do you understand?

Yes.

Put this meat

onto the skin.

Then, pinch it.

Pinch it.

Look, it's done.

Let me see.

See, it's exposed.

You're a fool.

Let me do another one.

Can't put too much meat.

This is her first time.

She'll master it after a few times.

Feng.

Take some dumplings to the king's mansion later.

Let your sister try it too.

No need, mother.

They're not in today.

King Peng Cheng took sister

for an outing.

Outing?

King Peng Cheng

is so busy with government affairs.

He should go relax.

When he's not in,

who take care of the affairs?

Of course is the imperial secretariat.

That's Uncle Wang.

Sister-in-law.

Uncle don't get involved in politics

and has been free

for so many years.

Why did he agree

to be imperial secretariat?

But with uncle's

knowledge and status,

he's the best candidate.

Zijin.

Your father is now the imperial secretariat,

he's not free

like before.

Later,

you go back and visit him.

You have to care about him.

Tell him to take care of his health.

All right, mother.

Later,

I'll give him some dumplings.

He'll be happy.

All right.

Feng, Mei Qi.

Take these dumplings

to cook first.

All right.

Let's go cook dumplings.

-Slowly. -Wait for me.

Do you know how to cook it?

Put the dumplings in when the water boils.

-All right. -All right, mother.

Wait for me.

Are you tired?

No.

Father.

I brought some

dumplings that I made together with mother-in-law.

Also, mother-in-law gave you

Linxu Wine.

It's given by King Peng Cheng.

Today,

you remember to come home.

Father.

You're

wiping the armours of brothers again.

You miss them?

A few days later,

it's their death anniversary.

I'm thinking if

I can make something different

for them this year.

You're married and I'm old.

King Peng Cheng looked up upon me

and appointed me as the imperial secretariat.

I can no longer

live freely like before.

For the rest of my life,

I really don't know

how to deal with it.

I don't care

if you're a free man

or the imperial secretariat of Song.

I only hope that

you can be at ease and free

like you used to be.

You're right.

At ease and free.

Father, come and try

my cooking skills.

Today,

there are wine and dumplings.

All right, let me see.

Master.

Someone came just now.

To ask you to go to

King Peng Cheng's mansion.

All right, I'll go now.

You go out first.

Yes.

Father, Shen Feng said that

King Peng Cheng and Concubine Li

has went for an outing.

Are you still going there?

King Peng Cheng went for an outing.

But I have many official duties

that are yet to be done.

Today is not a good day.

But I promise that

when I return,

I'll eat this dumpling.

All right.

Don't forget it.

Of course.

Warm it up with small charcoal stove.

Don't let it get cold.

All right.

I'll leave now.

All right.

Have you done

what I told you?

Yes.

Another useless one.

Do you think you can escape?

Sister Waner.

Kong Cheng.

Take some panax notoginseng from the warehouse.

I took a look just now.

The panax notoginseng is almost finished.

So fast?

All right, I'll take some.

Waner, you're back.

Brother Xun.

Waner, this...

Brother Xun.

Tomorrow is Mdm. Sun's birthday banquet.

I promised King Jing Ling

to perform at the imperial tomb.

I need to go now.

Why

didn't I hear you say about this before?

When I'm here,

the time pass by quickly.

Days have passed unknowingly.

And it reach today.

All right, I'll prepare a carriage for you.

Waner.

What's wrong?

I'm all right.

I'm just a bit dizzy.

I've told you.

You're not fully recovered.

How about this?

I'll send you to the imperial tomb.

Thank you, Brother Xun.

Let's go.

San Jiu Tang

They left together.

Good.

San Jiu Tang

Kong Cheng.

Senior?

Kong Cheng?

Senior, you're here.

Kong Cheng.

Where's Senior?

Senior?

I don't know either.

He was here just now.

Did he say where he's going?

No.

What happened?

I'm all right now.

If you're still worried,

let's go back to the king's mansion

and let Physician Chen take a look.

All right.

Kong Cheng, when Senior's back,

no matter how late it is,

tell him to go the king's mansion.

All right.

We'll leave now.

Take care.

All right, put it on.

All right.

Come.

Fifty years have gone by.

May you be blessed with longevity.

King Jing Ling is indeed filial.

Every year,

he'll write a couplet

for your birthday.

Look at the writings.

The stroke is strong.

Xuan's good writing

was trained by

Kang himself.

Look at you.

You're talking about King Peng Cheng every day.

King Jing Ling said that

King Peng Cheng agreed to come.

He'll definitely come to wish you happy birthday.

Yeah.

I'm waiting.

I hope to see him.

I hope I can express my emotion.

I'm old.

I'm like a child,

I can't wait for it.

The days at the imperial tomb,

I accompany you to take care of the flowers.

The days are plain

but full of laughter.

I like such days.

Ordinary is a blessing.

It's such a pity that

I understood it late.

Chun Fang.

You've followed me for so many years

but you didn't live comfortably.

After tomorrow,

go back to your hometown.

Madam, don't say like that.

I

just want to accompany you for a lifetime.

A lifetime?

A lifetime passed quickly.

How's his condition?

Don't worry.

He's fine.

Fine?

But his hands

shook vigorously just now.

What's the reason?

Based on his pulse,

his blood

doesn't flow smoothly.

This is a symptom of physical weakness.

When you got poisoned,

your body was already weakened.

You've been recuperating your health,

but you're busy with official duties every day,

it's inevitable for physical exhaustion.

I'll prescribe

some relaxing medicine

to recuperate your health again.

I'll give some soothing incense too.

You'll feel better soon.

Concubine Li, don't need to worry too much.

Thank you, Physician Chen.

We still have some soothing incense.

Don't need to give us more.

All right. If so,

I'll come again tomorrow to check on Your Highness.

All right.

You can be at ease now.

I won't die so easily.

I'm so worried.

But you still can joke around.

Concubine Li.

Physician Chen still not back to San Jiu Tang.

Not back yet?

Where did he go?

Lige.

Physician Chen has said

I'll feel better

after resting for a few days.

But I'm still worried.

I must let senior take a look at you.

To check your pulse.

Fourth Brother.

I heard that you came back suddenly

and I saw Physician Chen just now.

Are you sick?

Sixth Brother, don't worry, I'm fine.

You came at this hour,

something's wrong?

There's one matter.

Now,

the position of commander-in-chief of middle troops of the west

has been vacant for so long.

The army is in disarray.

I'm thinking to

to recommend Deputy Commander-in-chief Cheng Fang

for this post.

He's born of military family.

He act decisively.

What do you think?

No.

Why?

The west middle troops are ex-comrades of Lu Yuan.

Cheng Fang is recommended by you.

If he's to be appointed suddenly,

I'm afraid it'll cause difficulties.

If you want things to go well,

he needs to make achievement to convince people first.

That's the best.

You're right.

Why didn't I think about this?

I shouldn't be impatient.

Fourth Brother, rest well.

I'll leave now.

Sixth Brother.

Tomorrow is mother's birthday,

don't forget to prepare more dishes.

Let's drink our fill tomorrow.

All right, I'll go make preparations.

I'll leave now.
