Untouchable Lovers

Episode 16

16

Tian Rujing, I've belittled you.

17

Rong Zhi, immediately stop.

18

Or else, I'll kill this maidservant first

19

- and then kill the person you love!

- Menke Rong...

20

Youlan, what are you hiding in your clothes?

21

Menke Rong, I...

22

My men sent me a carrier pigeon message. When they were destroying the tracks of the carriage,

23

they discovered 2 red beans.

24

Youlan, you did that, right?

25

What did you say?

26

She left red beans at important areas,

27

that's why, Hua Cuo was able to track the carriage.

28

I treated you well.

29

I even took you with me while escaping for my life. Why must you betray me?!

30

Because I like Menke Rong!

31

What?!

32

I've liked Menke Rong since a long time ago,

33

but I dare not let Princess notice it.

34

As long as I'm able to look at him from afar,

35

I feel contented.

36

When Princess left Jiankang,

37

I then thought that if I follow you, I surely will see Menke Rong again.

38

Hence, I didn't hesitate to go with you.

39

Menke Rong, as long as it's for you,

40

I am willing to risk my life.

41

So, you risked your life to fool He Ji,

42

not for me but for Rong Zhi?

43

But Menke Rong left midway.

44

I didn't know where to go, so I could only follow Princess.

45

Afterwards, Imperial Astrologer sent Commander Ling to see me.

46

But you never said a word to me.

47

Princess, the heaven isn't fair at all.

48

People are born unequal.

49

If I have your beauty and status,

50

I would have confessed to Menke Rong long ago.

51

But I have nothing.

52

I even get scared in just secretly looking at him.

53

I am also a woman!

54

The things that you discuss, the tunes that you play,

55

I don't understand any of them!

56

I can only crawl on the ground.

57

Look at your world from afar.

58

A me like that is so ashamed of my inferiority.

59

Sorry, Princess. The more I love Menke Rong,

60

the more I grew envy of you.

61

That's why, I hope that you die.

62

There were so many women in this world that love Rong Zhi.

63

Do you plan to kill them all?

64

No matter how many women there is in this world,

65

you are the only one that Menke Rong cares for!

66

Rong Zhi, a beautiful woman like this that's willing to risk everything for you,

67

are you going to just watch her die?

68

What does her life or death have to do with me?

69

Since that's the case, then she's useless.

70

The next one is Princess.

71

Rong Zhi!

72

Do you remember that you promised me 3 things?

73

Now, there is one more left.

74

Right, beg him to give up everything

75

in exchange for your life.

76

A person that has been fooling me all this time,

77

why must I be reluctant to leave him?

78

Rong Zhi, I will never love you again.

79

Just fulfill your wild ambitions and do what you want.

80

Rong Zhi...you are indeed Rong Zhi.

81

Tian Rujing, I already can't escape.

82

Let me say a few words to Chuyu.

83

Tian Rujing, I'm ordering you!

84

Kill them all!

85

Tian Rujing, whatever tricks you used, you've won. I also am willing to accept defeat.

86

Now that I'm just going to say a few words to her, you're being afraid?

87

Tian Rujing, why are you still standing there?

88

I'm ordering you to kill them!

89

Shut up.

90

Your Majesty...

91

Your Majesty, Tian Rujing isn't under your control anymore.

92

For your safety, it's better that you keep silent.

93

That day, I rejected you because we have different stands.

94

Rather than being in pain forever, it's better to just swipe the sword and severe our ties.

95

This was something that you once gave up. I then spun it like a cocoon around myself, not wanting to get away from it.

96

Afterwards, I also recalled the days when we're together.

97

Those were my most relaxing and happiest moments.

98

The more I recall them, the clearer your image becomes.

99

I don't know when it started, but it seems that I have already kept you in the bottom of my heart.

100

I thought that love can be kept and given very freely.

101

But I was wrong.

102

There is always an exception to everything.

103

Chuyu, you are my exception.

104

Before, you didn't mind jumping over the cliff just to follow me.

105

If you are given one more chance, will you still be willing?

106

Father!

107

No. I can't.

108

Rong Zhi, you are a person with wild ambitions.

109

You are a killer.

110

You are ruthless enough to wield your swords on women and children.

111

I am unable to forgive

112

a you like that.

113

Rong Zhi, I am cursing you!

114

One day, you will also taste the pain of sincerely giving out your heart

115

but getting cast away just like a shoe!

116

You will then know how it feels for your inner organs to be cut off,

117

your heart shattering to the point that you desire death!

118

No, I won't.

119

My love, hate, life, and death are decided by me.

120

I won't regret them and won't suffer.

121

My life and death is in my hands.

122

I'm delighted to win, and also will calmly accept defeat.

123

Rong Zhi...

124

I don't want to leave any corpse.

125

You also shouldn't look. Dying like this, after all,

126

will look very bad.

127

Rong Zhi... Rong Zhi!

128

- Junior Brother.

- Rong Zhi!

129

- Princess!

- Princess!

130

Rong Zhi! Rong Zhi--

131

- Rong Zhi! Rong Zhi!

- Princess!

132

- Don't be rash!

- Rong Zhi!

133

Princess, are you crazy?!

134

Rong Zhi!

135

Let us go confirm if he's really dead.

136

- Let go of me.

- Princess.

137

Let go of me!

138

- Go there to look!

- Yes!

139

Hurry! Keep up!

140

Princess!

141

I found him!

142

Men! Carry him out here!

143

The death star that deserved to die... He's finally dead!

144

Kill that woman too!

145

Your Majesty, if you still don't shut up, don't blame me for being heartless.

146

Tian Rujing, I am the emperor of Song.

147

That will only count once you've safely returned to the Palace.

148

Let me confirm if it's Rong Zhi.

149

Your Majesty, I'll go up there and look.

150

Let's go!

151

He had scars all over his body from being tortured when he was little.

152

He also got captured by the Jiang clan for several years.

153

He fractured his hand bones. There was one bone the never grew back properly. It's him.

154

Don't touch him!

155

Mo Xiang.

156

Are you satisfied now? Seeing that his dead,

157

are all happy?!

158

Tian Rujing, you finally have eliminated the greedy wolf star.

159

Completing your will of the Heaven.

160

Brother Yuwen, you changed your alliance to Wei's Empress Dowager.

161

Aren't you ashamed on how you disappointed the many years that Master has trained you?!

162

Hua Cuo, you always blamed Master for fooling you.

163

He also previously taught you sword skills. How come you've forgotten that completely?

164

Rong Zhi, I didn't want you to die.

165

I just can't accept it.

166

I am just mad.

167

I want to force you to admit your mistakes.

168

Why?

169

How come you'd rather die than admit that you were wrong?!

170

Even if it's fake, it's fine with me.

171

I wanted us to go back to how we used to be.

172

I wanted to be your best friend again!

173

Now...I'm giving you back my life.

174

I'll return to you all those

175

sword techniques I learned from you!

176

And you, Liu Chuyu.

177

Master didn't mind sending out all his trusted aides to protect you, that's why he ended up like this.

178

But what about you?! What did you do?!

179

If I'm given another chance,

180

I will never change my choice.

181

Rong Zhi hurt a lot of innocent citizens. Chuyu chose to give up on him.

182

That is his retribution.

183

Men! Bring him here!

184

The one who harmed those innocent citizens is him!

185

What did you say?

186

Zong Yue colluded with Shen Youzhi and killed innocent citizens in neighboring towns.

187

They disguised the citizens as Wei soldiers just to falsely report military achievements.

188

Why must you blame all these deaths to Rong Zhi?

189

Chuyu, Rong Zhi sincerely loved you.

190

You also died for him once.

191

How come you just won't trust him this time?

192

Shen Youzhi, where are you running to?!

193

And Liu Yu! Where is he?!

194

He now hates you very much. Must we chase after him?

195

The fortune of Song has ended. Just let him be.

196

Men! Take him away!

197

Stop!

198

I was ordered by Empress Dowager to bring Young Lord's body back to Wei.

199

Please don't hinder me.

200

Or else...

201

This is Rong Zhi's letter to Empress Dowager Feng.

202

Look at it first.

203

This is the progress plan of Wei for the next 10 years.

204

And the list of spies he had been handling for so many years.

205

From the start, he knew about Empress Dowager Feng's plan.

206

He knew that she's making her move.

207

Chuyu must be in danger.

208

There's still time for you to cut yourself from her.

209

If you want to achieve your grand ambition, you shouldn't pay attention to a woman.

210

Now is not the time for romantic follies.

211

Do you know that Brother Yuwen has already secretly sent men into Jizou City?

212

What is he planning to do?

213

Looks like Empress Dowager and Tian Rujing plan to work together in eliminating me.

214

How is that possible? You are her sibling.

215

You have always been planning and making preparations for her.

216

So hateful. That cruel woman actually double-crossed you.

217

No matter what, just let her be. No need to pay attention to it.

218

What if she wants to kill you?

219

Just let her kill me then.

220

Before mother died, the person she was worried about the most is Feng Ting.

221

I swore to take care of her forever.

222

But too bad, I faced a mishap when I was 8 years-old.

223

Causing me to end up with the Jiang clan, while she entered the palace.

224

From a naive and romantic girl, she became vicious and ruthless.

225

And now, she can't even trust her own little brother too.

226

She has no way of turning back.

227

The only way is to make her this world's most respected woman.

228

Even if that's the case, you don't need to die.

229

If I don't die, how could the people following me willing submit themselves to her?

230

If I don't die, she will forever fear me.

231

If I don't die, she will never return to my previous sister.

232

That's why...

233

I can only die.

234

I used to be bent on taking revenge.

235

Now that I've succeeded,

236

I would then take Master's corpse and bury it in a quiet place.

237

As for myself, I will guard his tomb forever

238

and never step into the Central Plains again.

239

Tian Rujing, our collaboration ends here. Farewell.

240

Let's go.

241

Liu Chuyu, I'm taking Rong Zhi with me.

242

You can't.

243

You are Master's most beloved woman. I won't kill you,

244

but I ask you to forever remember his love for you.

245

- Men!

- Chuyu...

246

Take him away.

247

Chuyu, he is from Wei. He should return to his kingdom to be buried.

248

Can you bear to see him get buried in a foreign land?

249

Chuyu.

250

- Rong Zhi! Rong Zhi!

- Chuyu! Chuyu!

251

- Don't be like this!

- It's all my fault! Why didn't I believe him?!

252

This is not your fault.

253

You don't understand!

254

I said that I don't blame him.

255

I told him for us to forget each other from now on.

256

But in reality, I was hating him.

257

I hate him for not loving me! I hate him for lying to me!

258

But when I learned that he massacred innocent women and children,

259

I hated myself more.

260

I hate myself...

261

for falling in love with him.

262

How come at that moment, I still love him so much.

263

That's why, I would say such cruel words.

264

Chuyu.

265

Chuyu!

266

- Chuyu!

- Rong Zhi!

267

Junior Brother, I have some words to tell you.

268

Senior Brother, what is it that you want to tell me?

269

Why did you not tell me about your plans today?

270

You were with Princess for a long time. I'm sure that you'll get soft-hearted.

271

If you don't agree to let me take Princess as a hostage,

272

then all my previous hard work will be for naught.

273

Moreover, I'm colluding with Wei this time. With your upright personality, you surely will be against it.

274

Of course, I won't agree!

275

That is the Wei that killed thousands of my countrymen!

276

Junior Brother, you kept saying that Rong Zhi is a the greedy wolf, a treacherous person.

277

Only today did I understand

278

that the people who are really crazy is you and Master!

279

Junior Brother, our sect existed for the good of the citizens of the world.

280

But for your laughable beliefs about fate, you were able to betray your ideals and the government.

281

You stopped at nothing and even caused the death of innocent people!

282

You are several times more evil than Rong Zhi.

283

You have a short foresight. What you see are only the sacrifices in front of you.

284

You are unable to consider the greater good.

285

I am preserving the natural law. Only by eliminating Rong Zhi

286

can war be averted. That is the only way.

287

Junior Sister, you like Chuyu, right?

288

She is the first person to say no to you.

289

The first woman to challenge your power as the Imperial Astrologer. You previously wavered because of her.

290

You even agreed to help her convince Liu Ziye. That is totally not you.

291

No, I never. I never wavered.

292

A person's gaze will never lie.

293

Junior Brother, just for a laughable natural law, you betrayed your own heart.

294

You are so pitiful.

295

Shut up! Shut up!

296

I didn't do anything wrong. I will never be wrong!

297

Maybe, the reason you are so bent in killing Rong Zhi

298

is because of the envy in your heart.

299

You envy that he has Chuyu's only love,

300

while you don't even have the chance to say it.

301

Junior Brother, you really disappointed me.

302

It's not like what you said. It definitely isn't like that.

303

Just to kill Rong Zhi, you just watched as the citizens suffered.

304

You completely have gone crazy!

305

Junior Brother, I urge you to quickly wake up!

306

Don't lost the most important thing just because of your heart's demon!

307

Pavilion Master, Liu Yu's throne wasn't obtained properly anyway.

308

When he returned to Jiankang, he has been terribly suspicious of everyone.

309

He kept executing the descendants of the royal family.

310

If any of the ministers will just say something he doesn't like, their whole clan will get executed.

311

Pavilion Master, compared to Liu Ziye, this Liu Yu's ruthlessness

312

is only worse and never less.

313

[Liu Chu Yu; Liu Yu]

314

He? He was just a puppet.

315

I'm letting the world know

316

that the Liu clan is savage and heartless.

317

Lord Xiao, you are the real emperor that's destined by the heaven.

318

Now, we can proceed with our next step.

319

What about Liu Chuyu?

320

She? Someone will naturally send her to where she should go.

321

Princess, you're awake.

322

Who sent you here?

323

Don't you know how bold and amorous the princess was?

324

You're being too shy. I wanted to ask you for an item.

325

I can give you what you want,

326

but you must promise me to do 3 things.

327

Being able to lessen Princess' worries is my duty.

328

I just hope that Princess will stop pushing me away.

329

If you don't open your mouth, how can I check it?

330

Or, do you want to never recover?

331

While a person is alive, the hardest thing to do is to let go.

332

People will always remember those unhappy things and neglect those happy ones.

333

I hope that this tune of mine can make you happy.

334

Other than me, no one can kill me!

335

Rong Zhi!

336

You've already did very well. It's not that you don't care about Mo Xiang's life,

337

you just care about mine more.

338

I heard what you said that day.

339

What?

340

Liu Chuxiu and your feelings towards me.

341

You were pretending to be asleep?

342

Yes.

343

You asked me if I like you or not and I said I didn't.

344

But I forgot that it is impossible to hide the fluttering of one's heart.

345

If you are going to ask when I started liking you, I don't know.

346

Maybe it was at the moment that you jumped for me. Maybe it was earlier.

347

Before, you didn't mind jumping down the cliff just to follow me.

348

If you're given another chance, are you willing?

349

I can't.

350

Rong Zhi... Rong Zhi!

351

Where is Chuyu? Where is Chuyu?!

352

Hurry and go save her.

353

She got taken away by a group of people in black. They went eastward.

354

People in black? Could it be him?

355

Timing and Subtitles carefully crafted by the MEI DAXIA Team at viki.com

356

You're awake.

357

You?

358

Zhu Que, after not seeing for so many days, you can't even remember your past master?

359

You really are so unkind and unfaithful.

360

Pavilion Master,

361

Liu Ziye is already dead. Everything has ended.

362

Liu Ziye is indeed dead.

363

But he didn't die in your hands.

364

You still have disappointed my trust and my many years of teachings.

365

That's why, I took you back here

366

to be publicly executed, so others won't dare to follow you.

367

How dare you! You dare to disrespect Pavilion Master?!

368

I indeed trusted Pavilion Master a lot.

369

What about you? You show your tail but hide your head. (concealing half of the matter)

370

When did you ever show you real face?

371

You clearly know about my real identity,

372

yet you instead let me kill my real brother.

373

Fendai and I are just one of your lackey.

374

You want us to act according to your command.

375

But when did you ever have compassion for us?

376

Not only me.

377

Also you all. Who are not just his pawn?

378

Shut up!

379

Shut up? Why must I shut up?

380

You are going to kill me already.

381

I already can't escape death. Why must I still conceal the truth for you?

382

The people here,

383

other than those orphaned by war,

384

most have their parents just die overnight.

385

Have you all thought about it?

386

Have you thought about how your parents die?!

387

Before I die, I just want to know...

388

when did you know that I'm Liu Chuxiu?

389

You don't need to know that much.

390

I brought you back here to be publicly executed.

391

Do it.

392

Come.

393

Teacher Uncle, you promised me that you'll let her live.

394

What did you call him?

395

You pretended to not know martial arts, so you were just concealing it all this time?!

396

Zhu Que, didn't you ask me how I knew about your identity?

397

Other than Tian Rujing and I are both from Yunji Mountain,

398

he worked in the government, while I worked covertly.

399

We both only have one goal,

400

that is to preserve the natural law

401

and assist the new emperor.

402

So you both are the smart people.

403

Only I'm the stupid one. I even asked you to help me.

404

How can I be this dumb?!

405

So, my whole life, were just being controlled by you two!

406

No. I wavered.

407

It's just that I realized eventually that the will of the heaven can't be disobeyed.

408

That's why, I reverted back to the implementation of the original plan.

409

What is the will of the heaven?

410

Is the will of the heaven watching the citizens suffer wars, droughts, and get pushed to a corner?

411

It was the will of the heaven to let me be born in a high and noble family

412

then suddenly make me fall down from the clouds.

413

The will of the heaven firmly believed that Liu Ziye is a bad emperor.

414

Repeatedly tried to kill him.

415

What are your reasons for supporting Prince Xiangdong to the imperial throne?

416

He clearly was more pretentious and sinister than Fashi!

417

Wrong. Tell me.

418

Was Liu Yu also a pawn?

419

Is he?! Why is Yunjin Mountain doing all these?

420

He really are your chosen emperor?! For whom are we being sacrificed for?!

421

Kill her!

422

Chuyu.

423

Tian Rujing, this person has already seen heaven's mystery. She can't be allowed to live.

424

No. I said before that you can't kill her.

425

I think that you're really insane.

426

The rules of Yunjin Mountain is that outsiders must not know about heaven's mystery.

427

You still want to save her now?

428

I have a way.

429

I guarantee that she won't foil your plan.

430

I won't allow anyone to hurt her.

431

Your Majesty, Prince Consort He Ji asks for an audience.

432

Let him in.

433

Let Prince Consort in!

434

Greetings, Your Majesty.

435

Why is Prince Consort in a hurry?

436

Your Majesty, I heard that Tian Rujing

437

has arrived in Jiankang.

438

Tian Rujing?! I haven't even make him pay for what he did to me.

439

He actually dared to come here alone?

440

Your Majesty.

441

Tian Rujing?! You...

442

You're so bold! You dare to trespass the inner palace?!

443

Men! Men!

444

Come, go kill him!

445

Your Majesty, you must be muddled.

446

I am a person that guards the Song empire. I am Song's deity.

447

Even if you are the emperor, you won't be able to send a normal human to kill the representative of god.

448

Any person who disobeys the deity will suffer heaven's retribution.

449

I was once disrespectful to you.

450

That was also for the greater good.

451

Your Majesty is benevolent. You surely won't blame me for it, right?

452

What do you think?

453

May Your Majesty forgive Imperial Astologer.

454

You all dared to threaten His Majesty?

455

Imperial Astrologer, say it. Why did you come here?

456

Your Majesty's throne came from improper means.

457

There are numerous discussion among the people.

458

Princess Shanyin is the official descendant of the imperial family.

459

She is also the biological sister of the deposed emperor, Liu Ziye.

460

If she said that the deposed emperor Liu Ziye voluntarily yielded the throne to you,

461

won't your throne know be perfectly justifiable.

462

Princess Shanyin's existence is to stop the gossiping mouth of the people.

463

For you, there is just benefits and no harm.

464

Your Majesty! I thought about it carefully and I the more I felt that something is wrong!

465

That woman is not Liu Chuyu at all!

466

Kill him!

467

Drag him out.

468

Imperial Astrologer, where is Princess Shanyin now?

469

Princess Shanyin is just waiting outside your palace.

470

- Go there to look!

- Yes!

471

Hurry! There!

472

Let's go.

473

Junior Brother Rong Zhi, why must you do this?

474

Wei is an unending mire.

475

I promised mother that I will take care of Feng Ting forever.

476

But I already had enough of a scheming life like this.

477

Now that her wings are full, and I've already handed her the opportunity,

478

there are no more debts between us.

479

We both are free now.

480

You asked me to travel far to find that magical rock

481

to amuse Liu Chuyu so she can laugh heartily, it shows how deep your love is for her.

482

What then is your reason in faking your death in front her causing her to grieve and cry?

483

Because I want her to forgive me.

484

And etch me in her heart and bone. Only by me dying

485

will she understand

486

if the lying is more important

487

or my life is more important.

488

Aren't you being to heartless towards her?

489

She is naturally stubborn and unwilling to turn back.

490

She doesn't even want to face her real heart.

491

Only by doing this will she be willing to love me again.

492

What if she decides to forget you?

493

I will use a more tragic death to carve a deeper impression in her mind

494

to make her love me forever and love only me.

495

Rong Zhi o Rong Zhi,

496

you are indeed the most heartless person in the world.

497

You and that high and lofty Wei Empress Dowager are really biological siblings.

498

Senior Brother, what is the meaning of this?

499

The mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind.

500

Don't forget. Feng Ting is not only your sister,

501

she's also my junior sister.

502

She has already guessed that you will use the trick of a cicada shedding off its carapace.

503

Looks like she gave you a higher price.

504

It's just that I never thought

505

that despite me already being at this situation, she still wanted to squeeze dry her own little brother remaining value.

506

Too bad. Lamentable. Too pitiful.

507

That's why, just be obedient and go back with me.

508

Senior Brother, even if I am badly injured,

509

it doesn't mean that I don't have any power to fight you.

510

Rong Zhi, in dealing with a scary person like you,

511

how could I be unprepared?

512

Rong Zhi, sorry.

513

Heart devouring poison can make you obediently follow commands from now on.

514

By the time you wake up,

515

you'll just become an obedient sword of Empress Dowager Feng.

516

Princess, the banquet will be starting soon.

517

Come with me.

518

I still can't forget him.

519

What did you say?

520

Let's go.

523

Chuyu, the past has gone to past.

524

You should live now for the citizens of the world.

525

Help me to assist justice.

526

Stop Pavilion Master's scheme.

527

Look for an upright and wise emperor.

528

This is what your future path should be.
