♫ Used to the depth of the darkness ♫

[The Wolf]

[Episode 20]

I have an idea!

Just like when we were kids, we can hide ourselves under capes.

What do you think?

Isn't this Feudal Lord Li?

Hello, Feudal Lord Li.

Go! Go away!

What is he up to?

Had I known how hard it was to be a sentry,

I would have raised the salary of soldiers at the city gates.

[Low-grade garrison, Feudal Lord Li]

Young Feudal Mistress Ma?

Wait. No...

What is she doing with a strange man?

Here's my chance to redeem myself.

Stop there!

Feudal Lord Li?

Why is it you?

Why are you guarding the city gate?

Young Mistress, under broad daylight,

you're actually cheating on Prince of Bo behind his back!

You're being unfaithful by committing adultery!

I really cannot let this slide so idly.

Today, I'm going to arrest both of you and condemn you in front of Prince of Bo!

Lord Li, since we're both citizens of Kuizhou,

can't you just keep it a secret?

Besides, you've seen it with your own eyes before.

Prince of Bo doesn't love me at all.

So, can't you just let me find another love?

Young Mistress, honestly...

Well, I know Prince of Bo is kind of mean to you.

That day when he had Miss Lufu come over right in front of you,

I was outraged on your behalf as well.

However, that's not a reason for you to cheat on him!

Today, I'm going to redeem myself,

so that Prince of Bo can take back his order.

In that case, I'll be able to return to my position as this city's leader.

You adulterous couple!

Come! Follow me to see the officials.

Come! Come!

You!

Feudal Lord Li.

Your Highness.

Do you really dare to punish me?

I was totally lacking in perception!

I deserve the harshest punishment!

Please forgive me, Your Highness!

Didn't you just give us a big scolding

and call us an adulterous couple?

What a good speech!

Young Feudal Mistress and I have returned to Kuizhou to have an affair. Is there a problem?

No problem!

Go ahead and cheat!

No! I've got a foul mouth.

I'll strangle myself to death.

I'm strangling. I'm pressing very hard.

- Your Highness, forgive him. - I'll choke myself to death.

I can't breathe.

I'll let it slide this time.

But if you let out the news that Young Mistress and I are back in Kuizhou

to have an affair,

you'll be banished to the border area.

I wouldn't dare. I wouldn't dare.

I dare not.

Even if I die, I won't do it.

Wishing you a safe journey!

This isn't right.

The... His Highness doesn't like the princess, does he?

Why are they so loving now?

You haven't told me yet why Lord Li

was demoted to a garrison soldier.

He mistreated you.

So, at that time, although you said mean things to me,

you secretly stood up for me behind my back.

Watch out!

Stop running, Hong'er! Hong'er!

Are you okay, Hong'er?

Come back with me and apologize to the guest.

No! They said I look hideous!

Father, you think I'm a monster, too. Right?

Otherwise, you wouldn't have told me not to stay in my room!

That's not what I meant.

It's because your temper is getting worse.

Even if the guests take a glance at you with no ill intention,

you'll chase them out with a broom.

At this rate, I'll have to close down my business.

Father, I don't want others to look down upon me.

I want to bully them before they bully me.

This is my philosophy of survival!

Hong'er! Hong'er! Come back!

Don't run away! Hong'er!

The father and daughter are my old acquaintances.

Why did Hong'er's temper change so drastically?

I'll go over and see what exactly happened.

She became like this...

because of me.

It got in!

Great!

My turn!

Queue up!

Quick! Hurry up!

- No! - My turn!

[Constabulary]

I really regret it.

Come again!

Back then, I told Hong'er not to believe in the story of Wolf Boy and Xing'er.

What can I do for Hong'er to go back to the way she was before?

I'll definitely hit it next time!

Listen to my instructions later.

Let me do it first!

No!

Next!

It's my turn! My turn!

Hurry up!

It went in!

Hong'er, long time no see!

Sister Zhaixing, why are you here?

This is Brother Wolf Boy.

Why doesn't he show his face?

Does he have an ugly scar on his face like me?

Hong'er, Brother Wolf Boy wants to let you know

that he was once like you.

People misunderstood him and treated him like a monster.

Just like you, he thought setting himself against everyone

would make him powerful enough.

But ever since he was young, he never had any friends.

He was friendless and found himself all alone.

He was lonely.

So what if I don't have any friends?

Who needs friends? I can play by myself.

You can't do it. Let me try.

If I can make them play together with you,

you've got to promise me one thing. Okay?

They won't play with me.

Let's go, I need your help.

Come.

Hold it!

Hurry up!

Hurry!

My turn!

You can't do it.

Hong'er, we'll play pitch-pot, too!

However, the winner gets to flick the loser on the forehead.

Okay?

Good luck!

Hong'er, you're so great!

Wolf Boy, it's your turn.

Don't throw it in.

Hit harder!

Here.

Harder!

Right, hit him right here.

Children, would you like to play together?

Here. Hold it.

Stand behind me.

It went in!

How did you know the kids would want to play with Hong'er?

Children have the simplest and most naive thoughts.

They don't care about your appearance.

They express their emotions in a straightforward way.

When they see someone who can play games very well,

they'll idolize that person.

Let me try. Let me try.

How did you know Hong'er could play pitch-pot?

She's just like me when I was young.

She always plays alone.

Hence, we're both experts at one-player games.

It got in!

She's very similar to me, too.

In this world, we are both being called monsters.

I'll try, too.

Your turn.

It's in!

You two are not monsters.

People often judge a man by his looks.

Hong'er and you are the kindest people

I've ever seen in the world.

You're good.

Brother Wolf Boy, come here!

Brother Wolf Boy!

Hurry! Get over here!

Brother Wolf Boy!

Hurry! Come here!

You can stop pretending now and show your real skills.

Or else, your forehead is going to hurt so much.

- Come over! - Here.

Flick his forehead! Flick his forehead!

Get down! Hurry up!

Get down.

Hurry!

Missed it.

If you don't want anyone to look down on you, make yourself stronger

and stand above everyone else.

This is the philosophy of survival.

Hong'er, it's your turn.

Could it be you were not pretending from the start

and really couldn't aim it?

You're Prince of Bo.

Your arrow never misses its target,

but you couldn't even throw the stick into the pot.

Who says a good archer can play this game well?

What are you laughing at?

I won't laugh anymore.

Mr. Fang.

Hong'er, where have you been?

I was so worried!

Hong'er, what did you promise me on our way back?

Father, I'm sorry for being immature.

I promise I won't do it again.

As long as you behave well,

I'll never get angry at you.

Father, thanks to Sister Zhaixing, I finally made some good friends.

Is that so?

Hong'er, don't ever forget what I've told you.

Your scar will help you distinguish between good and bad people.

Those who approach you willingly are sincere towards you.

As for those bad people who bully you, it's simply their fault.

You cannot become like them, do you understand?

Just like Little Wolf, I'll surely find someone like Xing'er

who will treat me well and stay with me forever.

Is that right, Sister Zhaixing?

You're so clever, Hong'er.

Thank you, Young Feudal Mistress.

Our Hong'er is so well-behaved and mature now.

I don't even know how to express my gratitude to you.

How about this?

I'll prepare some dishes for you.

Mr. Fang, it's no big deal.

I've business to tend to and so I've got to leave now.

Take care then.

Take care, too.

Be good.

Goodbye, Sister Zhaixing.

Goodbye.

Farewell, Young Mistress.

Let's go.

The man beside Young Mistress

is Prince of Bo, right?

No, he's not!

Father, he's Brother Wolf Boy.

Who is Brother Wolf Boy?

Although Brother Wolf Boy has been wearing the hood,

I accidentally saw his face several times.

He's the big brother who reserved our entire restaurant

and told me not to believe in Little Wolf and Xing'er.

That scary man.

How could Young Mistress be with him?

Master. Young Feudal Mistress.

Mo Xiao, why are you here?

I have finally found you two.

Does His Majesty know that I disobeyed him

and revealed my identity as Wolf Boy?

Exactly.

His Majesty is infuriated.

I've purposely come to warn Master.

When you get back to Imperial City, please be extra careful.

I was going to see the emperor after I get back to the capital

and confess everything anyway.

Turns out you were just consoling me last night.

I'll enter the palace with you.

We'll face the consequences together.

Don't worry, I'll be fine.

Let's go back to the palace.

Let's go.

[Ma Manor]

Stop!

I have an urgent matter.

I need to see Young Feudal Mistress right now.

She isn't in the mansion.

- But I just met her. - Met the Young Feudal Mistress?

Met the princess?

Beside her stood a dangerous person.

Mr. Fang, why have you come here?

Adjutant General Ma.

No, General Ma.

I pay respects to General Ma.

What a coincidence.

I just came back to Ma Mansion to run affairs.

You were saying that you met the Young Feudal Mistress.

Has she returned to Kuizhou?

General Ma, I'd like to have a word with you.

General Ma, I saw Young Mistress walking together

with a scary man.

I'm worried that she might be in danger.

The scary man you speak of most probably is her future husband,

Prince of Bo.

Hong'er recognized the man.

The day when Feudal Lord Ma and his family were murdered,

he was staying at the restaurant.

He had a murderous look

and was accompanied by three people in black.

Perhaps they were his subordinates.

They looked extremely suspicious.

If he really was Prince of Bo,

when he came to Kuizhou, why didn't he stay in the Feudal Lord's Mansion,

but paid a high price to reserve my restaurant instead?

After the sky went dark that day,

all of them disappeared.

The next day, the murder had happened in Ma Mansion!

I suspect that these people have something

to do with the massacre case!

Are you sure Hong'er clearly saw

that he was the scary man who reserved the restaurant?

While Hong'er was playing with the man,

she accidentally saw his face under the cloak.

It should be him.

Could she have been mistaken?

Prince of Bo was making a tour in disguise.

He didn't want to be recognized and so he wore a cloak.

This is nothing to be surprised at.

General Ma, anyway,

I've a really bad feeling right now.

General Ma, you might want to catch up with Young Feudal Mistress to see if she...

That move would be too reckless.

If Hong'er was mistaken, treating the subordinates of Prince of Bo

as some unworthy fellows would be a great disrespect!

Mr. Fang, how about this?

I'll find a painter to make a portrait of Prince of Bo

so as to clear up your doubt.

Is that okay?

Thank you, General Ma.

Tomorrow, I'll bring the portrait to the restaurant for you.

We can take the opportunity to get together, too.

Don't you worry. The man beside Young Mistress is certainly Prince of Bo.

I know you meant well.

No matter what, I should be thanking you.

Thank you, General Ma.

I'll take my leave now.

Farewell.

Third Prince, His Majesty told me that he felt gloomy and went for a walk.

He didn't say when he'll be coming back.

Third Prince, please come again tomorrow morning.

I'll stay here and wait for Emperor Father to return.

You're dismissed.

Yes, Third Prince.

How dare you show your face here?

Are you not afraid that I'll behead you out of rage?

Prince of Bo, all these years, I treated you like my own son.

Have I ever wronged you?

But in the end,

you repaid me by deceiving me.

- I— - Let me ask you this.

What is the past relationship between you and Ma Zhaixing?

Zhaixing and I have known each other since young.

The murder case of Commandant Xiahou caused a misunderstanding between us for many years.

When we met again,

I saw her as a total stranger.

I never reconsidered our past relationship nor do I have a soft spot for her.

Until not long ago,

she was punished to kneel in the Ancestral Temple.

Only then did I discover that she was forced to do so at that time.

The old injury in her leg was caused by me.

I owe her.

I admit,

the reason I went to prison for her and treated her well

is not only for the sake of your order to placate the Ma Army,

but also because I love Zhaixing.

You finally admit that you have personal reasons for getting close to Ma Zhaixing.

My good son,

you truly value affection and friendship!

Emperor Father!

I tried to resist and cut off my feelings for her.

But she has found so many ways to show her affection for me

that I was unable to ignore them.

That's why I defied your order and admitted that I was Wolf Boy.

I can't see clearly now.

I was wrong.

One day, if I ask you to kill Ma Zhaixing,

what will you do then?

In that case, I've no choice but to follow the order.

Get up!

It seems like Chu Kui has finally let his guard down.

Get up.

Do you want to disobey me again?

All right.

Get up now. Get up.

Don't worry.

So long as Ma Zhaixing and the Ma Family Army

remain faithful to me forever,

I won't put you in a difficult position.

I'm the only one to blame.

I've granted you this marriage

and made you move from being unwilling to being trapped in love.

I shouldn't have hidden it from you.

Prince of Bo,

perhaps I will have to make things difficult for you again.

Present it to him.

An informant I planted on Ma Fengcheng

has sent me a secret letter.

The father and daughter from the restaurant in Kuizhou must be killed.

Night Fiends gave themselves away in the restaurant.

The owner noticed that they were the people who stayed in the restaurant

the day the whole family was killed.

Ma Fengcheng didn't get suspicious, but you cannot leave any evidence

on the part of the owner.

It's my fault.

This matter touches upon the truth behind Ma Ying's death.

You must deal with it yourself so that I can be at ease.

A little owner can totally ignite a firestorm.

You mustn't let the family see Ma Fengcheng again.

This is the most reliable way.

I'll do as instructed.

Congratulations, Your Majesty.

Third Prince accepted the mission without any hesitation.

Even though he has feelings for Ma Zhaixing,

it didn't affect his loyalty to you.

What is wrong?

Your Highness, do you still suspect Third Prince?

I can't be certain anymore.

In this world, aside from me,

there's one other person who knows Prince of Bo very well.

It's time to let this person out.

At present, this person is the only one who can help me confirm

if Prince of Bo is still loyal to me.

No! I can't wait anymore!

I've to go to the palace!

Young Feudal Mistress, I'm afraid it's improper!

Young Feudal Mistress, Prince of Bo has returned!

I've worried you.

Did the Emperor get mad? Did he punish you?

It's just that...

What? Tell me quickly.

It's just that His Majesty has assigned all the heavy court affairs

to me so that I can redeem myself.

His Majesty is a reasonable man.

You mustn't disappoint him.

Had you known earlier that it would go so smoothly,

you should've stayed longer at Kuizhou.

Perhaps you'd get to try Kuizhou's top chef,

Mr. Fang's signature dishes.

My favorite dish is the braised fish.

I'm a little hungry now.

Okay. Next time when we go to Kuizhou, we'll bring you along

to meet Mr. Fang and Hong'er.

Great! Can I eat ten fish?

Of course! Just eat whatever you want!

Thank you, Young Mistress!

Zhaixing, you must be tired after the journey.

Go get some rest.

Your Highness, you should go to bed early, too.

- Ma Jing. - I'm here!

- Escort your Young Mistress to her room. - Yes.

We'll go back and rest now.

Let's go. His Highness is exhausted.

Young Mistress, it's been a while since I saw Mr. Fang.

Hong'er must have grown a lot taller by now.

Indeed. At Kuizhou...

Did His Majesty put Master in a difficult position again?

No.

He just found out my past relationship with Princess Consort.

However, His Majesty has made an order for His Highness to go to Kuizhou

and kill Mr. Fang from the restaurant and his daughter

so that the matter can remain concealed.

The father and daughter from the restaurant?

Are they Mr. Fang and Hong'er whom Young Feudal Mistress was talking about?

It's the restaurant that we reserved when we

took action behind Master's back.

May I be bold to ask this?

The targets of this assassination are Young Mistress's old acquaintances

who have met you several times.

Are you really going to kill them?

Perhaps...

Perhaps we can find a way to eliminate his suspicion.

Master, you need not take up the matter yourself.

The three of us will handle it.

Failure at this task won't be tolerated.

Yes, Master.

Go to Kuizhou early tomorrow morning.

Hai Die, stay here so that Zhaixing won't get suspicious.

Yes.

Yao Ji, we haven't met for five years.

I, Yao Ji, pay respects to Your Majesty.

Get up.

Thanks, Your Majesty.

Your Majesty, you've come to visit me personally.

May I know if you want to offer me a chance to redeem myself?

Did I hear it wrong?

Are you admitting that you indeed made a mistake five years ago?

Five years ago, Prince of Bo and I were competing to be the head of Night Fiends.

I refused to accept defeat

and so I attempted to kill him,

but Your Majesty saw through my plan.

I only have myself to blame.

It serves me right to end up in jail.

Yao Ji, as you've expected,

I'm going to release you.

Thank you, Your Majesty.

I suspect Prince of Bo has changed.

[Bo Royal Manor]

The top priority is to find a way to satisfy both sides.

Come out.

Why have you come here?

Mo Xiao told me

that you'll leave the city in the morning to deal with court affairs.

I wanted to serve you breakfast,

but you were wiping your sword.

Just now, you looked so scary.

Have a seat.

Did I scare you?

Actually, it wasn't my first time seeing your murderous look.

Back when you murdered Young Feudal Lord of Tongzhou,

you had the exact expression, too.

He attacked you, so he should be killed.

You wiped your sword so early in the morning.

Does the mission assigned by His Majesty involve

someone dying?

Your sword will only take away the lives

of atrocious criminals, right?

I'll only point my sword

at those who might harm people's lives.

Swords don't have eyes.

But if you're the one holding the sword,

you can choose whether or not to kill.

I believe Your Highness will never kill innocent people,

just like Wolf Boy used to be.

Even though Commandant Xiahou took away Little Wolf,

your human nature overcame your animal spirit.

You didn't kill him,

but instead you let him go. Didn't you?

I'm no longer Wolf Boy.

When I returned to the court,

I was not Wolf Boy, but Prince of Bo.

The task assigned to me by His Majesty is confidential in nature.

You wouldn't understand and shouldn't understand.

It's getting late,

I'll depart now.

You always stop when the bell rings.

This proves that you're Wolf Boy.

You're now Prince of Bo,

but you'll always be the kind Wolf Boy from Langshou Mountain.

Have a safe trip.

I'll wait for you to return.

Back then, I adopted you and Prince of Bo.

I trained both of you to become Night Fiends.

Prince of Bo used to be unsociable and eccentric.

He never talked.

It was you who made him speak his first word.

Eat.

If we fight for every meal,

sooner or later we'll all die!

Come! Go on!

It's not worthy to die.

Both of us were put to the test by Your Majesty.

If I were to die during training,

he wouldn't be able to pass the test alone.

You two are similar and strong. I don't want to lose any of you.

Based on my understanding of Prince of Bo,

I don't believe a woman can make him lose himself.

Young Feudal Mistress, is it because this morning, Prince of Bo said that he was no longer Wolf Boy,

so you want to plant these usnea?

Usnea is the memory I share with Wolf Boy.

I hope when these plants have grown,

it'll become a new memory I share with Prince of Bo.

But you clearly like Wolf Boy more than Prince of Bo.

What are you talking about?

Aren't they the same person?

That being so, why can't you accept the fact that Prince of Bo

is no longer the Wolf Boy he used to be?

Besides, Prince of Bo doesn't like plants.

Perhaps he doesn't even like usnea now.

Do I really like Wolf Boy more?

Young Feudal Mistress!

Young Feudal Mistress, His Majesty has summoned you to enter the palace.

His Majesty has summoned me?

Eunuch, do you know what the matter is?

I have no idea.

Eunuch, let's go then.

Young Mistress, His Majesty has made a special order

that you are to enter the palace alone.

Why?

Yes. Why can't I go along with the Young Feudal Mistress, Eunuch?

I have no idea.

Eunuch, can you make an exception for us?

Are you suggesting that I should disobey the decree?

His Majesty must have a reason for doing so.

Ma Jing, take good care of these usnea herbs.

I'll be back soon.

Okay.

Let's go, Young Mistress.

Hai Die, do you think His Majesty has invited Young Mistress to the palace

to serve her delicious food?

Come. Help me plant the usnea herbs.

Back then, I thought Prince of Bo was all alone.

That's why I made him stay in the palace

after he recovered from his injuries.

We hit it off well

and so I adopted him as my son.

I didn't expect it to cause a misunderstanding

and let you two be separated for so many years.

It was my fault.

If it wasn't because of you, Wolf Boy would've died long ago.

I'm glad you don't blame me.

I know Prince of Bo has been feeling guilty

for your leg injury.

If you want to go to the battlefield and avenge your father in the future,

you must cure your leg injury.

Hence, I've found you the best physician.

She promised me that she'll definitely cure your leg injury.

But the imperial physician and many other physicians said

that the old injury in my legs can't be cured.

That's because they're not skilled enough.

The physician is inside the room.

This physician has a great medical skill,

but she's rather odd.

You need to cooperate with her and listen to her words

in order for your injury to heal.

Let me make it up to you.

I, Zhaixing, will do as you wish.

Go inside.

Yes, Your Majesty.
