I almost forgot that

my brother is an affectionate person

Awu is in the palace

How could he be willing to escape?

That saves trouble for me

Then

where shall settle the third prince?

I have a good relationship with Zitan

If he was not born in the royal family

I really like this younger brother a bit

His life can't be saved

But for the old days' memories,

I'm going to give him a dying gift

Your Highness

please drink porridge

Princess, I am afraid

if second prince will kill us all

If he really wants to kill us,

it's no use to be afraid

Awu

Zitan!

Have you been wronged?

Why are you here?

Your Highness

This infatuated third prince

put his neck into the noose

just for you

Second prince and we were very moved

Second prince was merciful. That's why

he let you and third prince

spend the night together in this Fengchi Palace

Get out

You are gullible even when you are dying

Keep an eye on them all

Got it

Is what he said true?

Why did you do this?

I said

I wouldn't miss you again

I'm glad you're okay

You shouldn't have come back

This is the last decision I regret

Do you still remember

when you fell from a tree as a child,

there was chaos in the palace

Because the little Princess of Fengchi Palace was lost

The mammies in the palace were so anxious

to look for you everywhere

I passed by here

and saw the branches moving

When I took a closer look,

I saw a "small meat ball" lying on the branch

The branches were wobbly

You did not know the danger

and kept climbing

just to catch a bird

Crack!

Fortunately, I took a quick move

You got minor injury

while my arm was broken

I've been in trouble since I was a child

But I was more scared than hurt

And you this time...

Do you know

everything's under Zilv's control at the moment?

Believe it or not,

This is the happiest day

in more than a year

Happy?

In such a situation,

how can you be happy?

Zilv will kill you and me at any time

With this moment,

even if I die tomorrow,

I am happy, too

Zitan

There are more important things in your life

than death for you to do

Duke Huan

Basta*d!

Report it tomorrow

Duke Huan

General Lin and General Huang

were almost beaten to death

They are outside the tent now

What?

General Huang, General Lin

Go to Duke Huan quickly

Okay

Duke Huan, please speak for us

According to the plan, General Lin and I

pretended to be drunk

and tried to figure it out in the mountains

But we didn't expect...

We didn't expect to meet Lord Yuzhang

He just ignored your authority

and hit us with a hundred clubs

Please take revenge for both of us

So,

you found nothing?

We are so sorry

Okay, okay, okay

Take the two generals back to recuperate

I will revenge for you

Okay, stand down

We are grateful, Duke Huan

How to deal with it, Duke Huan?

Lord

There are so many troops of King Jianning outside the valley

He can't hold it for long

In the Huizhou battle,

because of Princess

King Jianning has suffered from the loss of staying put

This time he has taken the initiative,

but he still stands still

Why?

Who cares?

Anyway, our Ningshuo Army has never been defeated

Even if we are head to head,

we are not afraid of him

In my view,

if King Jianning don't dispatch troops tomorrow

I am willing to lead the troops to battle

What do you say, Lord?

If Lord doesn't agree,

just forget I said it

Hu,

can you tell me

among the brothers who joined the army with us

who's still alive?

Shuohe

Xiaohu died in your arms

Diannan

and Laowu were shot into a hedgehog to save me

Laoyu was most afraid of death,

but he had died too

It's just you and me

We were young and aggressive

In order to win,

we never care about the cost of winning

These years

when I take care of the orphans and parents

of the brothers who died on the battlefield,

I found

their families had a

miserable life without them

Hu,

in my position,

how can we win at the least cost

is something I must consider

Lord, lord

Duke Huan just ordered someone to report

that he was not strict with his subordinates

For strict military discipline,

two generals Lin and Huang have been beheaded in public

Really?

Let us out. Let us out

Never heard of it. Never heard of it

Even the emperor

cannot detain all the officers

in this Taiji Hall day and night

We were treated like this even when we were loyal to our country

Isn't it irritating to the general public?

We want to see the emperor. We want to see the emperor

How dare you

a leader of an imperial army beats and scolds courtiers

How dare you!

This is national humiliation

Kill all of us if you can

Let us out

You really treat us as prisoners

Second prince is here

Let us out

Dear courtiers,

The continuous detainment here

will make the constant turmoil of the capital

Now King Jianning is approaching

and rebels from all directions create chaos

If there is unrest in the capital,

wouldn't it be...

What?

Wouldn't it be self-destruction of the nation?

Yes, General Han is right

We are all loyal subjects

We are courtiers, not prisoners

This Taiji Hall is not a prison either

Yeah

Taiji Hall is not a prison

Why did you arrest us?

That is what I do

Anybody?

Yes, sir

Tie up these two

who hooted

and hang them up

Got it

Oh no

No, no, no

You can't do that

Second prince,

both of them are important courtiers at court

When shall we put them down?

Put them down?

Don't untie therm until they die!

You guys come and see

Grand Preceptor Chen was hanged there now

Oh my god

He is a loyal courtier for three dynasties

It is not fair at all

Your majesty

How come?

Don't you even call me father?

Without the Tiger-Shaped Tally,

I do not have to pretend to be your filial son

And when did you

treat Zilv as your own flesh and blood?

You blame me

and I have nothing to say

Your mother was humble and passed away early

Unlike Zilong and Zitan,

they have a biological mother to protect them

I think you've suffered a lot

I wronged you

Sure enough

Even in the palace,

father and son will also act according to the law of the jungle

I have become powerful

and father thinks I am your son

What a pity!

It is late

Your Majesty,

didn't you just ask me

why not call you father, right?

I just found out the other day that

I'm not your son

What did you say?

Say that again

Like you,

we are the royal offspring of Ma's family

However,

my father is not you

but your brother

King Jianning

You are lying

You are lying

God is fair

Lord

I observed on the front line for several days,

I found that Xiao Qi's army still takes no action

What should we do about it?

Lord, you mean

we need to make a cut-off at this time

Got it

You never thought of me as your son

I am really not your son

At this moment,

my biological father

is thousands of miles away

and leading troops to help me

Your Majesty, your beloved prince

has become a prisoner

By the way,

Zitan

the good son you want to support

He had a chance to escape

but he desperately came back to seek his doom

Your Majesty,

Can you guess

for whom would he do it?

What a shame!

Everything you do

is not better than Wang Xuan

for him

Don't kill them

Even I'm not your biological father,

at least there is also the grace of parenting

In that year, King Jianning failed to seize the power

I'd think about we were family

so I didn't kill him

Even if you do reign,

You can confer them as Lord

It depends on my mood

What do you want?

Imperial edict

The whole world is yours

What's the use of the edict?

Your Majesty,

I need to make it

right and proper

Princess

No, miss Huan

It's all my fault

Since you are so useless,

why should I keep you?

Zilv,

it is really you!

Are you OK?

I thought you'd never come back

I'm fine

OK

Stop crying

Didn't I stand in front of you well?

But in case...

No

About what I promised you,

I would definitely make it happen

Duke Huan beheaded his generals for nothing

and sent us Huang's head

Is it really an apology?

Though he usually smiles,

I always think he hides a dagger in smile

Camping with him

makes my spine sweating profusely

What is the purpose of Lord's father-in-law by sending him here?

For stakeout?

You fools

I'm sure you don't know yet

You have been tricked by our king

You have no way out

Come down and surrender

Or just wait for death there

Come on up, son of a bit*h

I will chop you into eighteen pieces

Lord Yuzhang Army

Are you invincible?

Bah

Lord

If we let the rebels scold like that,

not all the soldiers can stand it

Lord

We found it

Along the back mountain

we can reach the foot of the mountain by passing through a cave

Although thousands of troops can't pass,

it's enough for small teams to sneak around

I took helping hands searched along

No rebels were found

Great

That's why I

dared to retreat to Guiwu Valley

Lord, Lord, Lord

Come down, come down if you dare

Come down. Come down if you dare

Go for a war, my Lord!

Get down

You can't stand this?

Let them scold

It doesn't hurt to be scolded

Come down. Come down

Axu

Let me do it, Aunt Princess

I'm really getting aged

If you keep

doing needlework day and night

In a few days,

I'm afraid your eye disease will be even worse

How about

I go to the palace

to ask an imperial physician to examine you?

Do not bother

Since we have to stay away,

don't pander any more

Brother is in poor health

If I make him worry about me,

I would be more sinful

In my view,

You should close your eyes more often

Let me embroider this for you

This is the first birthday of Awu's marriage

Anyway,

I am her mother,

I need to do this for her

in person

Yeah

I haven't seen Princess for several days

Maybe she had something to manage at home

But all right,

or

I can only accompany her for half a day

I do this on and off again

By her birthday,

this embroidery work can't be finished

Axu, I need a cup of tea

Got it

Aunt Xu

Aunt Xu

You are...

General Song under Lord Yuzhang

Exactly

Is Princess here?

Aunt Princess was still talking about it just now

She hasn't seen Princess for a few days and she miss her very much

The queen is unwell

and Princess was ordered to take care of her in the palace

But Princess worries about Aunt Princess

So she ordered me to guard Ci'an Temple

Princess has really grown up

But

Ci'an Temple is a royal temple

Who dares to make trouble here?

General Song, please go back

Just protect Princess well

Aunt Princess will be all right

That is Princess's order

I will dare not against it

Aunt Xu, please

tell Aunt Princess

the capital is in chaos now

I also

apply more than 100 Ningshuo soldiers to guard outside

If there is any trouble,

they will firstly

report to Lord Yuzhang's Mansion

Aunt Xu and Aunt Princess can just rest assured

All right

Then please, General Song

I am leaving

Brother Zitan

how do you feel by living in Fengchi Palace?

The "good things" you did

These are also thanks to you

What a pity!

I really pity you

After all you've done for her,

What a shame!

What an upset unrequited affection!

What happened between me and Awu has nothing to do with you

The most annoying

and the most disgusting thing

is your conceited and lofty appearance

You receive love from mother to father

Even you are good for nothing,

the emperor would also defend you

I cannot figure out

Why you can get everything in the right way

I think

your mother died tragically

and you lost your beloved woman

These are all self-inflicted by you

Zitan, listen

If you lose your power,

you cannot even have the right to

fight for and protect your beloved

I'll see

how long can you pretend to be?

Even if I pretend,

it's better than your requiting kindness with enmity

Yes

Now that is what I am doing

You were bullied as a child

and we have protected you many times

I didn't expect you to be so humiliated now

Where are you taking me to?

Don't you eager to see your uncle the emperor?

Now the old man wants to see you

How dare you disrespect father?

That's your father

Not mine

Move

Awu

You overestimate me

I'm just a woman

Why bother to make such a big occasion?

This woman is not an ordinary one

Even if you are alone,

I think it is worth doing this

Get in

"Yama" is still waiting for you

Why didn't Awu dare enter?

Awu

There you are finally

Come on

Come here

You still blame me?

Come on, Your Majesty

Save this touching drama

I have kept my promise

Now it's your turn

Anybody?

You go out first

After I catch up with Awu

and finish what I have to say

Without any attachment,

I will naturally give you edict and wills

Are you going back on your word?

Zilv,

for the throne,

do you really ignore the love between father and son?

Come on

Sister Awu

You ask your uncle

who is my biological father?

You go out first

Your Highness

The courtiers in the Taiji Hall are making troubles again

Sister Awu

You have a good chat with your uncle

Let's see what else he can do

Keep an eye on them

Don't let any fly escape

Yes, Your Highness

Lord

Lord

Why are you so alarmed?

His Highness succeeded

Zilv,

he's really my son

The old emperor

have occupied the throne for decades

Now

it's time for my son to get this throne

Give order to Duke Huan

and tell him to start work quickly

The day after tomorrow, I will get my final victory

Got it

Duke Huan

This kind of vicious trick

can be simply said

How to do it?

Lord Yuzhang

is sentimental

We can hardly find flaws in the military camp

If it is revealed,

we will die miserably

Yeah

This King Jianning set the schedule of two days

In the later night the day after tomorrow, we should work together

He also wants Lord Yuzhang to suffer a big defeat

But Lord Yuzhang seems to have taken a reassurance

and dispatch no troops

What should we do?

Insecurity makes bad things happen

I don't believe

he can make no sound

if he knows the unexpected news of Princess Yuzhang

that she was in danger in the capital

Awu

You haven't come to see me for so long

I know

you hate me in your heart

Awu really can't forgive me?

I do not know

The man in front of me

is Your Majesty

or my uncle?

I also don't know

when you are Your Majesty

and when you're my uncle

On this throne, I

have experienced reign of terror for half of my life

and I have been painstakingly guarding for half a life

In the end,

I am still alone

I

brought troubles to myself

Awu, you blame me and hate me

and I have nothing to say

But believe it or not,

now

I only owe

you

I only concern with

the nation

Awu

I was wrong

I will never be that cruel emperor again

I want to be your uncle

who cares you forever

I knew it that

Awu would forgive me

You would forgive me

Uncle

Good girl

Uncle

Uncle, this move

is wrong

I haven't played the game with you for a long time

I cannot believe you can play it

I won

I was careless. I was careless

I was careless. No undo

I was careless. No undo

Uncle

We had a deal before playing it

If I win,

I can get a reward

your words cannot be changed.

You can't break your promise to the world,

so you can't break the promise to Awu

Yeah

It has been a long time

Since the last game,

everything has changed

Have you ever regretted?

You lost, uncle

I

I never lost

At this moment,

Loss is a loss

If I say

there's still a turnaround

You're not talking about this game, are you?

Awu

Now you are the only one

I can trust in the palace

Lord, General Tang

Is Duke Huan inside?

He is taking a nap in the tent

Lord, I'll report it now

I don't know Lord Yuzhang has arrived

Welcome

Welcome, welcome

Please

Please, please, please

Come on

Duke Huan, do you feel better?

It's an inveterate disease

Just a headache

Maybe the two basta*d are the main cause

It's all because of the incompetence of me

Sorry for making troubles to Lord

Duke Huan

General Lin and General Huang

were just drunk

I didn't expect you...

Duke Huan

I hope that this matter will not be the grudge

between your army and mine

Do not worry about it, Lord

Ningshuo Army has strict military discipline

Seeing is believing to me

I will never be a drag for Lord

Today, it is because of Lord's mercy

I must remove doubts that

Lord made an exception for me

to make you subject for ridicule

That's why I ordered them to behead the sins

as a warning to others

Duke Huan's move

Xiao Qi admire you!

Don't harm your health because of this

It doesn't matter

I can recover in a few days

Now the rebels are clamoring for containment outside the valley

I wonder what Lord is going to do

There is no good strategy at present

I can just dispatch no troops

and make another plan

This is not a long-term solution

We are against heavy odds

If it goes on like this,

I think that morale is sinking lower

Duke Huan, could you give me a piece of advice?

In my opinion,

why don't our two armies break through together?

Let the rebels be caught off guard

No hurry

No hurry

We can cover it after Duke Huan has recovered

I am leaving

There is a secret place in this palace

It's just word of mouth from emperors

I thought

I won't use it in my life

But I never thought...

Do you know

where the Empress Dowager Dexuan was buried?
