Original subtitles

What do you mean?

I have always heard that you are a real hero

Knowledgeable and profound, virtuous and level headed

Only real beauties love real heroes

If you hurriedly want my body,

looks like you're hinting that I am merely a fake beauty

who can't match up to your heart?

How can that be?

In my heart, you truly are a great beauty of no match

If I was a real beauty,

what I want is your true heart,

I am not willing to be an easy toy to you

Xian-er

You already have my true heart

True heart? Actually, you are merely speaking it with your mouth

What I want is 2 willing parties, for eternity

I want your true heart

I want for you to be willing to

put your true heart into my hands

Great King, your words and actions

are indeed those of a real hero of the world

On the land of my West Xia,

you are the first

who dares to refuse me

The women in the world

no matter who,

want to be loved and pampered

All want to have real feelings

I heard that the West Xia's top beauty, Mo Zhang Black Clouds,

is the new concubine of the Great King

I wonder... if you could bring me to get to know her?

You want to meet Mo Zhang Black Clouds?

Fine!

I will bring you to meet her

Let you two great beauties

meet up! Okay? Let's go!

Today, after having seen the Tuo Ba family's pastureland, it's really an eye opener.

Next time, I will bring you to see even bigger pastures.

Great King

Xian-er,

this is Concubine Mo Zhang

Xian-er greets Her Highness

You are really gorgeous,

indeed the most beautiful lady of the Dang ethnic group

What a pretty and angelic face

Thank you, Your Highness

Two great beauties meeting for the first time

it's really familiarity at first sight

a great conversation indeed

The two of you start talking, and I get forgotten,

eh?

You both should be hungry? Zhuo-ya Go prepare some barbecue meats and wine

so that the Great King and Miss XIan-er can warm their bodies

Great King,

Come

Black Clouds,

Why didn't you ask me

why was I the one who brought Xian-er to come meet you?

And not Crown Prince himself?

We are family, it makes no difference who brought her

Xian-er has been admiring your beauty for a long time

She has been asking me to bring her to meet you

Xian-er, what do you think? Concubine Mo Zhang

how does she look in comparison to your imagination?

Your Highness is illuminating,

her looks is like that of an eye-catching gem

It is indeed an eye opener for me

Xian-er is really exceptionally intelligent. You said it well

Now, Concubine Mo Zhang is pregnant

so she is unable to move about freely

From this day forward, you should make some time

to come over and keep her company

to relieve her of boredom

I don't need to be relieved of boredom

Miss Xian-er, as the Crown Prince' fiancé,

should be more careful about your own words and actions

If you incur the wrath of the old

ministers around the Great King,

that will be troublesome

There are such ministers around the King?

You can't blame Yeli Ren Rong

this group of deep-rooted old ministers

They firmly believed that the country that the Great King has built

Half of it should be credited to them

That group of ministers rely on their seniority superficially

Let them say what they want, no harm done

I am your concubine after all

But Miss Xian-er is a descendant of the Song

The Crown Prince had to stand his ground to be engaged to you

The Crown Prince mother is the Great Xia's Queen

Miss, you must not lower your guard

You are graceful and accommodating

Gorgeous and blooming

Getting to know you is my honour

In future, I still need to learn from you

Miss, you are too kind

Today, the Great King personally brought you here

Your status in the King's heart is obvious

Today, to be able to hang out with you,

it is my deep honour

Come, come, come

Today,

I shall drink with the two beauties

So much so that even the fairies will be jealous when they see this!

Come, come, come

My two great beauties

Let us drink up

Good, go back and rest. Yes, Councillor.

Close the door. Go, go.

Fox!

Report a piece of good news to you. The Song army defeated Yinuo's army

That's great!

Who did it?

I heard that it was a very able general

who used metal hammer to break down their city gate

Metal hammer?

It's her! It must be her!

I have discussed this with her. If we put all the metal hammers together,

the strength is enormous!

You mean the General? General at the battlefield!

This is great

Looks like the General has fully recovered

Does Miss Xi Ying know about this?

Miss Xi Ying is dealing with the West Xia King

The West Xia King is not someone this little girl can deal with!

She's like setting herself on fire

This Miss Xi Ying..

On the day the King officially appointed the Concubine,

she performed a dance.

And now, she...

Now, what?

She dressed herself up like a flower in the breeze

Travelling around with the King riding on the horse

Miss Liu is making herself the pawn

What exactly does she intend to do?

I think her goal

is not just the title as the Crown Prince Consort

Tiger Qiu

You must observe very closely Miss Xi Ying's every action and move

Any situation,

come back and tell me

OK

(whispers) I heard, yesterday, the King

brought the Crown Prince's fiancé out for fun

Mo Zhang E-Pang,

Yesterday, you were the last person to see the King

Did you hear where he was going?

I didn't hear that he was going anywhere

You didn't hear?

Where did he go then?

(whispers) Yesterday, the King brought the Crown Prince's fiancé out for fun

I have also just heard about it

(whispers) Crown Prince and Xian Ni Shang are engaged!

What are you all discussing?

Great King. Great King. Great King.

I brought the Crown Prince's fiancé to the pastures for a look

What do you all want to know?

Great King.

Do you know what you are saying?

Of course I know what I am saying.

In fact, I can tell you all very clearly now

I brought the Crown Prince's fiancé

on the horse, went to sight see my Tuo Ba tribe's pastureland

So what?

Great King! This..

This what?

Xian Ni Shang has been in the palace for some time

never enjoyed the sights of our great Xia

I brought her out, only for half a day

What is the fuss?

Great King

My sister is in her state of pregnancy

If she hears about this, will definitely..

Mo Zhang Black Clouds' breadth of mind

is not that of a mediocre

Not comparable!

Mo Zhang E-Pang,

This matter has nothing to do with you

Don't say too much

Yes, Great King

Court dismissed!

Yes, Great King

Now, the Crown Prince is in charge of the logistical force,

making noise about wanting to go to the frontier

Why?

Ha-er Dun is jealous of father?

Hence, in bad mood?

I heard from the Crown Prince's subordinate, Staff Ha Ha

Prince Yinuo purposely grabbed the spotlight

took the opportunity to suppress the other tribes

What?!

Sooner or later, I will kill this guy who utters rubbish!

The things he does,

for all you know,

was directed by the Crown Prince

He might be afraid that you might topple him

have ambitions that you should not have

Ambitions?

It hasn't been decided whose world this is going to be

What ambitions!?

The Great King has been applauding your performance this whole year

Prince Yinuo's prestige is getting higher and higher

Crown Prince Ha-er Dun

might possibly be jealous

The Crown Prince and I have always been respectful of each other

How can he suspect me?

You must know

the military food supply

is the essential need for the soldiers and horses

But now, our Great Xia food stocks

is seriously in low supply

Our military food supply

is in severe lack

And Prince Qi is now hiding. his intentions and thoughts are unpredictable

Up till now,

the emergency food supply has yet to arrive

The days in the army

are hard to go by

Then, what do you intend to do, Prince?

Or..

In our next siege, we send Staff Ha Ha?

No, we can't.

Just because Staff Ha Ha creates trouble,

we can't let it influence our military deployment

You must remember

Military discipline is not a child's play

According to military discipline, he should be dead long ago

But he is Ha-er Dun's uncle

In the Ha Mo tribe, his prestige is extremely high

If we really kill him,

we will have a direct confrontation with the Crown Prince

But, what is the reason for Prince Yinuo to conquer the enemies?

The Crown Prince suspects you thus. Shouldn't you think for yourself?

In this world,

who doesn't want to be the Emperor?

Seeing the flourishing streets at the Capital City,

the happy livelihood of the commoners,

vivid in my mind

That is the paradise I yearn for even in my dreams

That is also what I hope to see in Great Xia

in the future

But..

The Crown Prince is already starting to hurt you

Not only does he not send us food supply on time,

the bows and arrows he sent are short by 30,000 pieces

You must know that right now, the price of commodities are rising in Great Xia

In such a short time, the Crown Prince finding it difficult to raise all the military food supply

is inevitable

But, Prince, you should be promoted to an even higher level

Only then you have the power to fulfil your heart's ambitions

But Father is still on the throne

Although he is lustful for wine and women,

his body is also not as good as it was

but, he will not pass away in the near few years

Furthermore, with the current war with Song,

we must not have internal strife

Actually we shouldn't start considering who is to succeed the throne,

but since the Crown Prince has risen to revolt,

we,

must then confront it.

Brother, you are here?

Sister

Did you hear the matter about the Great King?

What matter can the King have?

The matter about the Great King and the Crown Prince's fiancé!

There are some matters that are inevitable

Sister

The fact that the King brought her to the pastureland,

everybody in the Palace knows about it!

Aren't you even a little bit angry?

Angry?

Why should I be angry?

Oh yes!

A few days ago, the King even brought that girl here for some wine

The King treats you like this?

As the King's woman,

to be able to be favoured by him for a while

is already not an easy task

How can I expect him to favour me for the rest of my life?

Have you seen a flower that does not wither?

Aren't you jealous at all, sister?

Right now, I am pregnant with the King's child

But, have you ever seen a newborn eagle

that dares to fight with the ferocious wolf or the wild tiger?

I am afraid, before he can even flap its wings, he would have been swallowed

The wings are not fully developed yet

We must tread very carefully at this stage

What you should do now is to do what pleases the King

That would be fulfilling my wish

That would be fulfilling your own wish too

But I don't want you to be made a mockery, sister

And I don't want your dignity to be trampled upon by others

E-Pang,

my good brother

I will definitely not be like the Queen Yeli

always exhibiting her own wound

Allowing the visible gains and losses to be confused with wisdom

I have come this far

I must be even more careful

I must consolidate at every step

In the midst of all the noise others make,

grab my own destiny

Don't you

wish for the baby in my stomach

that one day, he will be the lord of this land?

Yes,

sister

I will listen to you

Ye Men Guan

State of XIa

State of XIa

North

Northern side

Doesn't look like the normal menstrual symptoms

Before I departed, Yu Jin repeatedly instructed me

that because I have a "cold" body,

must remember to keep warm

Ah Zhao, you have a "cold" body

In order to recover quickly,

and to have a baby

when you are at war,

you cannot drink cold water

You cannot sleep on the snow-covered floor

And you must not charge ahead in the rain

Qiu Shui

General

Send for the military physician

General, what's wrong with you?

Where are you not well?

I asked you to send for him, just send for him! So much talk

Don't alarm the soldiers

See? I told you General is not well!

Faster go! Why are you still here?

Yes!

Little Wang, where is your father?

What is the matter? He has gone out to attend to other patients

What shall I do?

You come here

What is it?

General is unwell

General is sick..

Why are you so loud? Are you afraid others won't know?

General is unwell?

Then, I will go. I will go. I will go.

You?

Can you do it?

My specialty is in treating injuries

Where is the General injured?

Yes, yes, yes! The whole army knows

General goes to war, she never brings the military physician

Of course!

She just applies some medication on her own body and she is fine!

Don't tell me...

You this little brat!

Is it painful? Pain, pain, pain!!

You had better think straight!

Don't you dare think dirty thoughts!

Yes, yes, yes

I tell you

This time, the matter is serious

The General's pants have lots of blood

It is a dark injury

You can treat it but you must treat it quietly

Must not let others know about this, otherwise will affect them

Understand?

Ok, ok, I understand

To be able to treat General Ye's illness

is my 100-year honour

In the future, I can brag about it

Hurry up!

Just because I look young, don't look down on me. Since I was 8, I followed my father to learn medicine

Since young, I have lived in the army. My specialty

is the diagnosis and treatment of skin and flesh injuries

Broken hand, broken legs,

There's nothing I can do

Amongst all the physicians in the military,

in terms of skills,

of course, my father is the best

and I, am a definite second best!

Boastful! Are you done boasting?

There are only two physicians in the whole army!

Can we go already?

Yeah, you're right! Let's go!

First, you must keep warm.

Everyday, must eat 2 eggs.

Then drink herbal drink with brown sugar.

Remember... your body is my life

Vulgar!

General!

Old Physician Wang has gone to treat other patients. So, I brought Little Wang here instead

Why are you just standing there?

Hurry up!

Where are you injured, General?

Should be an internal injury.

Check the pulse

That..that is so strange

I think there's a big problem

From my side, I can't tell

Let my father do it. He is more experienced than me

by a little bit

Over-boastful?

Didn't you say you could treat all kinds of illnesses?

Eh, I have been treating illnesses with my father in the army for so many years

I have never seen this kind of pulse

Oh, I know!

It must be a dubious case (hard case)

Wait. Wait for me

Hurry up! Hurry up!

Call for Old Wang. Yes, I will go.

Hurry up! Hurry up!

General, Old Wang is here

General

You this brat! You have learnt nothing all these years

Go over there!

General, let me

take your pulse

General

Is your menstruation on time?

Recently, I don't seem to have it

But this kind of situation

has happened before. When I went to war, it stopped for one or 2 months

Then... recently,

any changes in your appetite?

I have been spoilt by Yu Jin and Mei Niang

I can't really eat the food in the military

Then, recently,

have you possibly

often been nauseous?

I am sea sick!

Then.. Then, have you recently felt like your chest

is swelling up?

This time, going to war,

I do feel like the clothes are a little tighter

Then, recently, you...

Don't be so effeminate! So much nonsense!

Just tell it straight! I can take it

As long as the war is completed, everything can be agreed on

Ok

Then, General,

I will tell you honestly then

You..

You are with a child

With a child?

Aahh... so, the General is actually with a child!

No wonder I said I have never seen this kind of pulse

So, that is how it is being used

Miss Qiu Shui, you can't blame me for not being a good apprentice

In the army, we only have men, we have never seen a pregnant woman

Who knows that the General is a woman, that's why we didn't..

Enough! Enough! Enough!

Stop making noise!

Let me tell you.

Do not disclose this matter.

Congratulations, General!

Scram!

General

You are already 2 months pregnant

You didn't pay attention to taking good care of yourself

You nearly miscarried

Luckily, Heavens protect, there's no big problem

I will get you some concoction

Recuperate a little

Baby can still be saved

but placenta is a little unstable

if you do vigorous exercise,

even the master immortal himself can't help

The war is at hand

the main commander is pregnant!

You may all retreat please

Let me think about it. Don't let anyone know about this

Yes, General

Xian-er

Crown Prince, why are you here (at this time)?

These few days, the King has been sending me

to inspect the rear military needs

I haven't been able to see you

Are you well, Xian-er?

These few days, the King has been bringing me

to sight see the scenery of Great Xia

These few days, you have been with my father?

Crown Prince, don't worry

The King has brought me to see the Tuo Ba tribal pastureland

We even went to visit Concubine Mo Zhang

Aahh..

I heard that

second prince, Yinuo

has great exploits

The Great King often praises him

Yinuo leads the army at the frontier, and me,

I manage the logistics of the military needs

Even at the battle field, I won't be able to help him much

Yinuo

suffers a lot

I also heard that

most of the new soldiers

will pledge their loyalty and rely on Yinuo

Those people..

just want to share the credit

at war

Crown Prince, don't you have any care for concern?

Concern?

What concern?

If this time the Great Xia is victorious this time,

Prince Yinuo will have great exploits,

and he has the mighty power of commanding the army

I am afraid that at this time,

he will not be contented with just the status as the second prince

Xian-er, you think too much

between us brothers, the mutual affection is still quite good

Precisely because Father and I

both feel that Yinuo understand Song very well

that's why he is being sent to war

Don't worry, Xian-er

I will be able to rise to the throne smoothly for sure

By then,

Yinuo and I will be of one the same mind as brothers

and support me (as king)

But I have heard

the Song founding emperor, Zhao Kuang Yin,

died in the hands of the brother that he trusted the most

A candlelight silhouette

is all it takes to bring a final end to the brotherly love

Xian-er, you are letting your imaginations go wild again

The situations you are worried about

will never happen

Although Yinuo's character

is aggressive and violent,

But he is still respectful of me

He will never do the things you are worried about

I am but a

woman of the harem

Actually, I don't want to know about so much of these

But the more news I hear,

the more I am worried about your well being

Once Yinuo's wings are fully developed,

the fertile and rich soil,

the highest power,

all that support you, the Crown Prince

will shift their direction

you might be devalued, be deported

Even..

even your life maybe at risk!

When I come to think of this, I...

Xian-er. Xian-er,

At Song, I suffered a lot of hardships

until I met you

I just want to be with you, lead a quiet and stable life

But the bigger my hope,

the bigger is my fear

I am afraid that I might lose you someday

Xian-er, stop saying

For you,

I won't wait idly

Xian-er,

I will definitely be able to protect you well

Even if it means taking the biggest risk.

General

Have some tea

Take a short rest, won't you?

I really didn't expect

This child

to come at the most inappropriate time

I also think that it is too unimaginable

Like a dream

Up till now, I still don't know how to face all these

I am with a child already

My child with Yu Jin

General

This time to war, let us take the lead

How can that be?

In war,

whether the commander is with child or with injury,

must be the one to lead the charge forward

But your body now..

Let's seize the opportunity now

our army has victory

the soldiers are in high spirit

No matter what,

I must go!

General, you really can't!

Say no more

It's decided

Dismiss

Yes

Xian-er

You keep me company all day, are you tired?

It is my honour to be next to you

Previously, I used to like to drink alone

When I drink,

I have never liked a woman next to me

You are the first

I am overwhelmed by the favour

Xian-er

I have been contemplating on a matter for some time

When

will you really be

my woman?

When there is only you in my heart

Fine!

For this word of yours,

I must vigorously expand my territory

Take over the Central Plains

At that time,

I will make you the most distinguished woman in Great Xia

I also wish that the day will come sooner

Reporting

Reporting to the King, we have lost Ju Ping Guan

Bai Ying Zhai is in the state of emergency

Respects to Father,

for the future of West Xia, I have been at the frontier,

being industriously at war

but even a clever woman can't do much without rice

In the recent time, food supply is lacking

The soldiers are only about 30% full on a daily basis

The bows and arrows that came are also short of 30,000 pieces

The soldiers go to war with an empty stomach

Fighting with the Song army, we can't exhibit our full potential

in using bows and arrows

I am devastated that we lost Ju Ping Guan

trapped in Bai Ying Zhai.

Right now, we have been cut off food supply for 2 days

We can't help but kill the horses to sustain the lives of the soldiers

I am anxious and worried, not sure when

I can fulfil your ambitions of occupying the Central Plains

I investigated and found out that

military supplies are not up to par

main reason is because brother Ha-er Dun intentionally delay

He is fearful of my grip of power in the army

He is in secret collusion with the staff

to get rid of me, to be rid of future threats

Given that our ammunition is presently insufficient,

the situation is urgent,

I suggest that we have peaceful talks with Song

This will paralyse Ye Zhao

Then, we wait for another opportunity, and unexpectedly,

we will then flash out the main card that we have had for some time now,

instigate an internal strife within Song

When we have ample food supply,

we will then seize the opportunity to wipe out Song army

The situation is urgent

I await your decision

Summon the Crown Prince, Ha-er Dun

Get him to come and see me immediately

Yes

Then I shall excuse myself first

Father

You have called me in the middle of the night,

is there an urgent matter?

You read this yourself
