The Legend of Xiao Chuo

Episode 18

Yanyan.

Let go of me.

Derang.

Miss Xiao.

Derang.

No

Let go of me.

Derang.

Derang.

No, stop beating him.

Hunian, let them stop.

If you keep beating him, he'll die.

Hunian.

Let go of him.

I'll come back with you.

Stop beating him.

-Stop it. -Stop.

Derang.

I'm sorry, Derang.

I'm sorry.

I broke the promise between us.

I'm sorry.

(The King of Yan Palace)

Please forgive me, Uncle.

Derang has to injure severely to escape death.

I understand.

Hunian.

Thank you for your help.

Take care.

Derang!

Let go of me.

Let go of me.

Hunian.

Please, Hunian.

Let go of me.

Let me see Derang Han, Hunian.

Hunian.

Hunian.

Let me go.

Hunian.

Hunian, let me go.

Let me see Derang.

-Hunian. -I'm sorry, Yanyan.

Without father's order,

I can't open the door.

I'm not gonna marry Yelü Xian.

Hunian.

Hunian, I'm not gonna marry him.

How is Derang?

Please let me go.

I won't marry him, Hunian.

Hunian.

(Zhangmin Palace)

Your Majesty.

Yanyan and Mr. Han are both back.

But Mr. Han is severely injured.

It seems like that he's dying.

He's dying?

Ask Diligu to go to Han's Mansion immediately

and do whatever he can to save Derang Han's life.

Got it.

-Go. -I'll tell him your order right now.

Carefully.

Derang.

Derang.

Open your eyes.

Look at me.

Derang, please wake up.

Alright.

Though Derang has lost some blood,

Hunian's men knew how far to go and when to stop.

At least there's no severe internal injuries.

They knew how far to go and when to stop?

Look at his wounds.

Such a good son of mine has become like this,

I feel terribly painful

even if you don't feel the same.

I can't believe he has got himself injured like this

just for a woman.

He's a real man

for fighting for his beloved one like this.

From my point of view,

he did nothing wrong in this.

He is worthy of being my son.

If our good man from Khitan

can put up with this kind of things,

then he's not a real man.

He's the heir of Han Family,

he should keep healthy

and do something he's ought to do.

If he doesn't have any courage

and uprightness as a man,

how can you expect him

to take the responsibilities

of something important?

Master.

Madam.

His Majesty has sent his imperial physician Diligu here

to treat the young master's wounds.

Ask him to get out.

Send him in.

Got it.

It's already 24 hours.

Chu Bu.

I'm here.

What exactly did Diligu say?

Your Majesty,

Diligu said that

though Mr. Han is badly injured,

he'll make it.

That's good.

Derang.

Derang.

Derang.

You're awake, Derang.

Does anywhere hurt?

Please let me know if you feel uncomfortable.

Derang.

It must be painful for you.

You are badly wounded.

Have some decoction.

Here, let me feed you.

Derang, drink the decoction.

The decoction is cold.

Let me heat it up for you.

Mr. Han.

Mr. Han.

Get out.

His Majesty is quite worried about you.

Get out.

Please go.

Then I'll take my leave now.

Where's Yanyan?

Father.

How's Yanyan?

Derang.

Our new Emperor has just ascended the throne.

Yansage is on the run.

All the princes covet for the throne.

Now is the time when His Majesty

need our supports the most.

If the news of you and Yanyan against His Majesty are known by the others,

then they would doubt

if His Majesty has lost the support

from our two families.

By that time,

they would try to take actions.

Then the peace which we paid a lot to gain would be gone.

If the political situation becomes chaotic,

you and Yanyan

would become Liao Dynasty's sinners.

Yanyan is a good girl,

but you just can't be together.

I know how painful you are.

But sometimes,

you have to accept your destiny.

Father.

I won't accept my destiny.

I won't accept it.

Derang.

Derang.

Derang.

Yanyan.

Eat something.

Are you trying to starve yourself to death

by stopping eating?

You're gonna tie me up and take me to the Palace

on that wedding day anyway.

You might as well take my body to the palace.

So you're trying to learn from Wuguli?

You know that yourself,

our father won't compromise.

I don't want him to compromise.

I just don't wanna live.

Everything's meaningless without Derang.

I've already made the mistake once on Wuguli,

I won't make the same mistake again.

Braise some mutton soup everyday

and force her to eat that every meal.

Okay.

(Shangjing City, Liao. Yelü Lihu's mansion)

I can't believe my father.

He paid no attention

to his son-in-law.

His Majesty has come back for a couple of days

and he still hasn't called you in.

All the good fiefs and positions

are gonna be taken by your brothers

if we don't take actions in a few days.

Don't worry.

Your father's gonna help us.

He wouldn't have wronged

his precious daughter.

Besides, Mingyi is weak,

he'll let me leave here sooner or later.

By that time, the best piece of meat

may be waiting for me.

It's all that bastard, Yansage's fault.

He kept you from

bringing the troops to Black Mountain in time

and made you miss the opportunity.

It's okay.

When Yelü Jing was the Emperor,

we would need to be more careful.

Yansage was hard to tackle with.

But now,

that invalid Mingyi has become Emperor,

what can he do?

He has to rely on me.

By that time,

I'm gonna be in Yansage's position.

When I leave here,

I'll request to

lead troops to suppress Yansaga,

let him pay for what he did.

Without Yansage,

I just have to wait

until Mingyi dies.

Your Highness,

Taiping Princess is here.

Hunian is here?

Yes.

My father must miss me.

When I get back,

I'm gonna quarrel with him

and let him settle your things first.

I'll wait for your good news.

Let me talk to Hunian first,

then after a little while, you come in.

You're my cleverest baby girl.

How are you doing?

Does the baby make you uncomfortable?

Pretty good.

Hunian,

did father ask you to see me?

I wonder if Xiyin's business is settled down.

No.

I'm here

because I want you to persuade Yanyan with me.

What's wrong with Yanyan?

She wouldn't eat or drink.

She has lost her temper at home.

She's in trouble again?

His Majesty made an imperial decree

that he wanted to make Yanyan his highest-ranking imperial concubine.

But Yanyan doesn't want that.

So she's now venting her spleen at home.

Yanyan's gonna go to the imperial palace?

Yeah.

But you know that

Yanyan has been engaged to Derang Han already,

how's it possible for her to go to the imperial palace?

Now she's trying to starve herself to death.

I persuaded her over and over again,

but she wouldn't listen.

Then how about father?

Does he know?

Of course.

Father and His Majesty made this agreement in advance.

How can he do this?

Yanyan must be heartbroken.

That's why he didn't help Xiyin or Yansage,

but helped that invalid Mingyi in Black Mountain.

It turns out that he had never considered about us.

He wants Yanyan to be the queen.

Wuguli.

It's not the right time for this.

Then what should we talk about?

You and Yansage are now separated.

Xiyin and I are trapped in this mansion,

we have nowhere to go.

As our father,

he did nothing to solve our problems.

He told us,

it's for the future of Liao Dynasty,

but before you know it, he married Yanyan to Mingyi.

In order to let Yanyan be the queen,

he sacrificed us.

That's enough.

All you see is that?

So you've never had any idea

about the throne of the queen?

I'm not like you,

you keep everything to yourself.

You're so fake

even at this point of time.

You're being unreasonable.

Hunian.

What happened?

Did Wuguli say anything wrong?

Let me say sorry to you for her.

You're sisters,

you can talk everything through, right?

Let her go.

You'd better look out for yourself.

My dear Wuguli,

be careful.

Be careful of your health.

Damn it.

-Damn it. -What's wrong?

My father wants to marry Yanyan to Mingyi.

Yanyan is gonna be the queen.

Your Majesty.

Please rise, Mr. Han.

Take me to see Derang.

My son is badly injured, he's in bed and couldn't move.

I'm afraid he's gonna make a gaffe in front of Your Majesty.

Kuangsi,

do you blame me?

I watched Your Majesty grow up.

The time and energy I spent on Your Majesty

were more than any of my own children.

I know it's improper for me to say this,

but, no one would blame his own child.

I really don't wanna lose you and Derang.

Now what you said

is all I need.

Derang.

His Majesty is here to see you.

Derang.

Kaungsi,

I wanna talk to Derang alone.

Got it.

Bro Han,

I know you're awake.

You can hear every word I say.

But now you won't even look at me?

I dare not.

Can't we just be brothers

like we were before?

His Majesty should treat his ministers with courtesy.

The ministers should serve His Majesty with courtesy.

His Majesty makes imperial decrees for his ministers.

The ministers can only keep distance with His Majesty out of fear.

I know you hate me, resent me,

I don't expect you to forgive me.

I just want you to understand that

everything I do today

is not for my personal desire,

but for our Liao Dynasty.

Your Majesty care about our country so much,

I feel ashamed.

Bro Han, you know that

my body condition is getting worse,

Liao Dynasty needs a queen

who can stand up

to manage on her own

and control the overall situation

when something happens to the emperor.

And this person

is Yanyan.

You don't know her.

She wants an opportunity like this.

I remember that Yanyan once told me,

she wanna become someone like Empress Dowager Shulü.

Can you bear to see her wisdom and talents

become useless?

Did Empress Dowager Shulü

ever have a lover?

Did she live a happy life?

Without love and happiness,

a woman's finally gonna become a beast trapped by power.

But I'll protect her, I'll love her.

I'm gonna make her

the most exalted woman in Liao Dynasty,

the noblest queen.

Time will prove everything.

Don't forget,

stamp your name on the page of history

is much more important than the love between men and women.

You don't know Yanyan at all.

She doesn't want these.

She doesn't want all of these.

Now that Your Majesty have made up your mind,

why bother talking to someone irrelevant?

I don't have many people

that I can believe in my life.

You and your father

are the most important two for me.

Our reformation still have a difficult and long way to go.

I really don't know what to do without you.

We've been brothers for many years,

I'm fully aware that

you're very loyal to me.

I'm the one who owes you too much.

So, today,

I'm here to plead with you

to give me a chance to make it up to you.

Okay?

There are adopts and discards for everything.

You've chosen your righteousness of a cause.

That's your choice.

But I also can't let go of my love.

I have nothing to complain about.

Derang.

I'm tired.

Over the past decade,

I'm really exhausted.

Mingyi,

from now on,

you're on your own.

Xinning.

Childe, I'm here.

I wanna change my clothes.

Please give me some personal space, Your Majesty.

Your Majesty, it's…

No matter when you change your mind,

I'd always have a spot for you.

Your Majesty.

Please excuse my son being rude in front of Your Majesty.

It's because his brain is injured,

his mind isn't clear now.

Derang is a sincere decent man,

he's honest in front of me.

I trust you.

And I trust him.

Childe.

You need to calm down.

Your wounds are open.

I don't care.

There's not much difference between me and dead people.

Let's drink the decoction.

Then you can recover faster.

Childe.

Madam.

Derang, let me feed you.

Have some decoction.

Look at you.

You can't even get up.

What else can you do?

If you wanna get your wife back,

you wanna fight with them,

you need to get up first.

Now you can only lie in bed

and lose your temper at your patents.

You think you're still three?

Decoct another bowl of medicinal herbs.

If he refuses to drink it, then force him to do so.

Yes, madam.

Mother.

Mother.

What should I do?

My son, why are you so stupid?

I know your heart is broken,

that's why you don't wanna live.

But if you give up now,

there's no future for you.

You're young, when this happens to you,

you'd feel like the sky has collapsed.

But what you don't know is

you've still got a long way to go.

You'll get used to it

if the sky keeps falling down.

It's just like the people

who live in the grassland

meeting wolves and snow disasters for the first time.

They lost a lot of sheep

and they were dying,

they also felt like the sky was falling down.

But then,

when these things happen to them every year,

they just get used to them.

And when we look back,

we may think that we were so vulnerable at that time.

Did I do anything wrong?

Derang, I know you're heartbroken.

But you did nothing wrong.

As a true man,

how can you put up with this?

How can you not fight back?

Fighting back is useless.

Why it's useless?

It's impossible for you

to do whatever you want in your life.

But you shouldn't stop fighting

just because of that.

Mother.

Is Yanyan okay?

She's in the same condition as you.

Is she hurt?

I wanna see her.

Don't. Don't move.

She's not hurt,

but think about it.

With her temper and characters,

she wouldn't be in a better condition than you.

If you go to see her now,

you two are gonna be really painful,

what's the point?

Though you lost this time,

you've still got a long way to go.

Just like the grass on the grassland,

they're gonna wither every year,

but by the next year,

the grassland will be green again.

Will I still have a next year?

Why won't you?

You're still alive.

Yanyan is still alive.

You were in love.

You tried so hard to be with each other,

though you couldn't be together

because of His Majesty's imperial decree.

Even if you're both married

and have children in the future,

even if you can't see each other,

God Tengri is always there.

She knows that

you're thinking about Yanyan

and Yanyan is thinking about you.

When you become flying ashes,

you'll finally meet each other again in the heaven.

Taiping Princess.

Taiping Princess, please.

How is he?

Childe can barely manage to get out of bed.

Hunian.

Why are you here?

Is there anything wrong with Yanyan?

What happened to her?

Take me to her now.

What can you do

if you go to see her now?

So you can give yourselves up hopelessly

and starve to death together?

Or you just look at each other and grieve to the extent of wishing to die?

What's the matter with Yanyan?

She wouldn't eat or drink

and she refuses to see anyone.

She keeps crying from dawn till dusk,

even her voice is gone.

She used to laugh so much,

but now, it looks like that she's lost her soul.

I've never seen her like that in my entire life.

As her eldest sister,

I feel as if a knife is piercing my heart.

Derang.

You know that clearly.

It's now impossible for you two to be together.

You tried to run away,

you tried to fight back.

Have you ever thought about

what's gonna happen in the end

if you two keep doing so?

Hunian,

what exactly are you trying to say?

I know it's cruel to say this to you,

It is better for the doer to undo what he has done.

Now, she wouldn't listen to anyone but you.

You know her very well.

Once she's made up her mind,

nothing can change it.

Can you really bear to see her

spend the rest of her life

in such great pain?

Derang, I'm begging you.

Please let go of your love,

let go of each other.

It's because I know her,

I know what she really needs.

Hunian,

it's a torture for her

to live with someone she doesn't love.

She doesn't need my comfort,

what she needs is me.

Hunian,

have you ever been in love your entire life?

If you've ever been in love,

you'll know what it feels like

to separate from the one you love.

It's like your body is empty,

there's only a hole left in your heart.

Hunian,

how can I give her up?

If you haven't thought it through,

I won't let you see her.

Hunian,

let me apologize for me son.

I'm the one who should apologize.

I underestimated the love between them.

Thank you for coming at this time.

Let me take care of the rest.

Thank you, Uncle.

Xinning.

Xinning.

Childe.

Childe.

What are you doing?

Change clothes for me.

I wanna see Yanyan.

Childe, you're injured severely,

you shouldn't go anywhere.

Yanyan needs me.

Now, she is…

She's…

Yanyan now is…

Let him go.

Father.

Master.

Leave us.

Where can you take Yanyan

in your present condition?

We can go to the State of Han.

We can live in seclusion in the forest.

If you go that way, there are multiple separatist regimes by force of arms,

and it's sparsely populated.

I'm afraid you'd be dead

before you can reach the forest.

And you keep saying Yanyan needs you.

I think you just want her to die together with you.

Father.

Alright.

You can go.

Then how about Han family?

Then how about millions of common people in Youzhou City?

Where should they go?

Since the late Tang Dynasty,

there have been wars

in Sixteen Prefectures constantly,

it's not easy to gain the peace.

Our Han family's duty

is to protect the peace of this land.

Since the day your grandfather

followed Empress Dowager Shulü,

we've been trying to reform and implement Han system.

After the efforts of three generations,

we were about to succeed.

However,

Yelü Chage made a revolt,

we suffered defeat on the verge of victory.

and Emperor Mu was brutal and cruel.

I had to endure humiliation to protect our career.

Now, our new Emperor has just ascended the throne,

everything's going towards the way we've expected.

But now you're gonna ruin

three generations' ambitions of our Han family

just because of the love between you and Yanyan.

You're the most talented,

most intelligent and most stoical one

among your brothers.

I've already entrusted the future of Han family

and the common people in Youzhou City to you.

How can you forget the agreement between us?

Father.

I dare not.

But Yanyan is the love of my life,

I can't live without her.

Father,

what should I do?
