The Legend of Hao Lan

Episode 13

This is too ridiculous, what does a woman know?

How could they let her handle this?

What if the diplomats are angered, what will happened to Zhao State?

Now the alliance issue is small matter, our survival is more important.

That King brought two thousand soldiers here.

What happened if the Handang reinforcements don't arrive in time?

All these work on speaking.

This won't do and that won't do. Think of an idea for me then.

Queen, is it safe to give such a big matter to a Lady in waiting?

We want this to be in jest, the more playful the better.

If we let the men handle it, it is diplomacy. Can't risk losing.

For women, if we succeed then all is well.

Otherwise,

It's only a woman's game, that's all.

Hence, whether you want to negotiate

or go to war, it's up to you.

She's always like this.

She does things without caring about what others think.

Please invite the king of Zhao state to come out to meet.

May I ask why the envoy of Wei state is here?

One is to seek alliance. Second, it's to propose a marriage.

Since the envoy of Wei state is here to seek alliance,

why do you need to bring that many soldiers from Wei state?

Qin and Zhao are warring, the borders are dangerous.

They are here to escort me to Zhao state to protect me.

What a coincidence. My king of Zhao state is here at Mount Mafu.

One is for the sacrificial ceremony, Second is for check the provisions.

Qin and Zhao warring, we all know that. Zhao State is in difficult straits.

The granary is probably already empty.

Otherwise why seek help from my Wei State?

Take a look at what these are.

This...this...

That is Zhao State's big granary. It is our secret weapon against Qin soldiers.

With it, Changping's two hundred fifty thousand soliers can continue to protect.

Handang reinforcements will arrive soon.

The envoy of Wei state only brought about 2,000 soldiers on horseback.

can they deal with the Zhao soldiers upon us?

Don't forget that

It is Zhao State requesting help from my Wei State.

Nowadays, Zhou state is under siege.

in dire need of Wei State's aid.

Wei King remain indifferent, yet still attempt to loot in a burning house.

How would the people in the kingdom think?

As soon as Qin soldiers captures Zhao State and takes over our people and fortunes.

Establishing a bigger force. Command all the states in the land.

At that time, Wei State will also be reduce to a state of being at other's mercy.

This alliance matter, its for everyone's benefit.

If Wei state withdraws your army, the alliance can still be discussed.

Does your words count?

His Majesty and Her Highness are sitting over there.

I shall lose my life if any of my words are not true.

Envoy of Wei state, please think carefully.

Let's go.

How could it turn out like this?

This...I really didn't expect this.

Your Majesty, if you continue to look, you will finally understand.

Reporting!

Your Majesty, the Wei people has decamped and left.

Excellent.

Your Majesty, there's still a Crown Prince from Chu state.

But compare to fearful rat like the Wei official

but this Crown Prince is not that easy to handle.

Wei state just left and Chu state is here again?

I'm here to see your Princess. Why did they call the Lady-in-waiting to be here instead?

May I ask you a question?

Why are you here at Zhao state?

I fell in love with your princess at first sight.

I would like to marry as my Royal Consort.

Then why did Crown Prince bring army to Mt. Mafu?

Your king of Zhao state personally gifted me with the painting.

I came to offer marriage to your Princess but he had dishonor his own words.

Would I still have the dignity to go back?

Crown Prince, please look at that granary.

Hold that side up.

Yes!

Quick!

Good. Good. Good.

Good. Good. Good.

Such small trickery may fooled the Wei official,

Will it be able to trick me?

This strategy can trick the envoy of Wei state.

Once look at it, the Crown Prince of Chu state could already see through it.

That's right.

Look at the Wei soldiers ready to battle at the foothill.

It's really women's speech bringing calamity to Zhao.

Since Wei left, we should've married the Princess to the Chu.

Zhao Princess should sacrifice for Zhao State.

That's right.

I already said,

you can use this trick once but not all the time.

A country's matter is not child's play.

At the end, still need me to clean up the mess.

Hand over the princess now.

Hand over the princess!

General Gongsun, what's happening out there?

I don't know. Who's afraid of what's going out there?

Go and ask round. What exactly is happening?

Yes.

Royal Descendant.

Brother Lu, why are you here?

Don't ramble on, Chu and Wei is charging up the mountain.

Let's go now.

That's not impossible.

You listen yourself, the fighting outside.

They are going up to attack the mountain soon. Let's go now.

- General Gongsun. - Don't be anxious.

Lu Buwei, are you up to something?

If you still don't believe me, listen then.

This is not right. Let's go now! Quick!

Hurry up!

General Gongsun, I made you suffer.

Lu Buwei, that's sinister enough.

I don't want to see your little game anymore. Hand over your princess now.

May I be bold. Crown Prince, please think again carefully.

Chu State encompasses five thousand li's, bears many tens thousands of soldiers.

It's such a strong country. Why would you be afraid of Qin state?

If Crown Prince dissents to Zhao and Chu's alliance.

are you waiting for Qin to defeat one by one?

I'm not interested in what you say. Tell your princess to come out now.

Back then Bai Qi lead tens of thousands of soldiers to fight Chu State.

One battle took Yenying, second took Yiling.

Third one destroyed Chu's temples,

Disgraced many generations of ancestors, bodies & blood strewn all over the land,

Did the Crown Prince forgot this huge debt of blood and revenge ?

How dare you!

Crown Prince is skilled in both pen and sword.

You will be the future ruler of Chu state.

Even though the Princess admire you so.

Willing to form marriage alliance.

But if the princess marries into the Chu state,

Wei State will definitely fly into a rage from the shame.

Citizen's blood will flow like a river.

The best strategy at present is for Zhao to graciously decline Wei's marriage alliance.

It's the only way to breakup Qin State's devious plans. Princess is elegant and intelligent.

She'd rather sacrifice her love for Crown Prince.

and stop the marriage alliance.

Such is Princess pained efforts

Can the Crown Prince understand this?

Is this the idea of the princess?

The princess said if the Crown Prince continues to apply pressure,

she's willing to jump down from Mount Mafu

To break this love fate.

She doesn't wish to implicate her country, condemned by the public.

Dare I ask the Crown Prince a question?

Princess is wise, kind and righteous for people's causes.

For the peace and safety of her country,

Rather renounce a great love

Will Crown Prince put his people at risk for his own selfish affections?

The swallows go flying about, With their wings unevenly displayed.

The lady was returning [to her native state], And I escorted her far into the country.

I looked till I could no longer see her, And my tears fell down like rain.

The swallows go flying about, Now up, now down.

The lady was returning, And far did I accompany her.

I looked till I could no longer see her, And long I stood and wept.

The swallows go flying about; From below, from above, comes their twittering.

The lady was returning, And far did I escort her to the south.

I looked till I could no longer see her, And great was the grief of my heart.

Crown Prince is so affectionate.

Ya'er has none to repay back.

Can only use this people to give to my soul mate.

and wish the Crown Prince a safe and smooth journey.

I bade farewell to you.,

Let's go.

But I'm still clueless.

Who thought of this scamming trickery?

Haolan, explain this to His Majesty.

To answer your Highness, Wei King seeks own profit by looting the burning house.

When he sees that Zhao State has ample provisions for the war, he naturally will leave.

The Crown Prince of Chu state fell in love with the princess at first sight.

He is young and hot tempered. When he found out the Princes is also enamored of him.

But willing to sacrifice her love for the country.

Naturally will be very moved. Chu prince is a highly intelligence man.

If he had chance to think further, would've been suspicious at our ploy.

So while he was thinking, I recite the farwell poem to wipe off his last suspicions.

When I was young, I heard a legend from the elders.

During the 10th year of King Lu Xiang's reign, the lords from thirteen states teamed up to attack Biyang state.

The King of Biyang, Yun Bao, built fake granaries and

Caused withdrawal of tens thousands of soldiers.

Furthermore, as a tiny state, Biyang fought hard for 20 days

and battled the combined army of the thirteen states.

Frankly, for today, the first stage is not difficult.

The second had narrow margin, the third...

it wasn't me who touched the heart of the Crown Prince of Chu state.

It's Princess's real affections showing.

To sacrifice love for land and country.

Instead of being moved by Ya'er, he was actually moved by his own high sentiments.

But in two years when he becomes the king of Chu state,

and is less innocent and passionate, I fear this strategy can't be used again.

Let's talk again when it comes later.

Ingenious ploy of covering the sky to cross the sea.

It must be...Her Highness' idea.

Sister Ya is gorgeous and Haolan is elegant, a pair of red lily and white lily grew in our Zhao State.

That is our Zhao State's fortune, father King.

Well said.

Congratulations, Your Majesty.

Older sister Haolan.

Prince Jiao just found that many soldiers and horses

are unaccounted for.

Princess, please save Royal Descendant of Qin's life.

Lu Buwei, you won't be able to escape.

Zhao State King and Court got dazed by Chu & Wei.

Can't be considering us.

You already knew of this plan.

You only need to know this. If you don't obey,

I will kill you.

Where's Haolan?

Haolan has her own destination.

You are abandoning her?

It's worth sacrificing this for you.

I don't need a woman to sacrifice her life for me.

Royal Descendant, please don't forget.

You are a royal grandson of Qin, Qin State retreat back ten li's for you.

Xia Consort is holding her breathe waiting.

Are you going to lose this opportunity because of a woman?

There's nothing more important than returning the Qin royal grandson to Qin.

Please don't forget your status and land because of Haolan who's a woman.

Lu Buwei.

Royal Descendant, my period of interactions with Haolan is more longer than yours.

I know her better than you. Nothing will happen to her.

Do you really feel no guilt when you said this sentence?

Lu Buwen, we are partners in weal and woe.

Remember what you promised me.

Don't not abandon me at any time.

I trust you.

For the bigger cause, there's nothing I can't sacrifice.

Hurry up! Leave now!

Get off the carriage.

Prince, look at the chaos ahead

and you are still aware of us. I really admire you.

Prince, they are trying to escape.

General Gongsun, I told you to guard them tightly

You ran off with them, really doing one's utmost.

Tie them up and bring to meet Royal Father!

Why would I escape? They are the ones who want to escape!

Older brother.

Where are you going?

Royal Descendant of Qin is trying to escape.

I'm tied him and Lu Buwei up to bring them to meet Royal Father.

I made an appointment with the Royal Descendant to view the scenery in the mountain.

Treasurer Lu was merely ordered to escort him here.

How could it be considered an escape?

Ya'er, you are still speaking up on his behalf at this stage?

Do you know he was escaping as your were getting forced into marriage?

It's because Wei's troubles that Ya'er asked Lu Official to act on behave of me.

It's my fault to cause such a big misunderstanding.

Princess.

General Gongsun, why are you also tied up?

I forgot.

If the hostage escaped, you will be punished.

Yes, I will go to prison too.

Princess, save me. I'm being falsely accused.

Originally going to accompany Royal Descentant for sightseeing.

how did this happened? My hands are bruised by the ropes.

Ye'er, you are still helping them at this point?

Prince. If I really wanted to take the Royal Descendant with me to escape,

why would I bring along General Gongsun too?

Could it be that I wasn't successful in bribing him too?

That's right. Everything is a misunderstanding.

Prince, release us.

Whether it's a misunderstanding or not, Royal Father will judge and decide.

- Let's go. - Wait.

Just now, I was resisting the people from Wei and Chu states.

Where were you then?

Could it be, in your eyes, taking down the Royal Descendant of Qin

is more important than Royal Father's safety?

- Ya'er... - If Royal Father were to find out,

in order to capture the Royal Descendant of Qin, you didn't care about his safety,

tell me, what would Royal Father think?

This is a big matter regarding the Qin Royal Descendant.

Royal Father will definitely believe me.

I just recently garnered a big merit in front of royal father.

Tell me. Would he believe me

or would he believe you?

Older brother, don't forget

I'm the only one in the palace who's the biological child of Her Highness.

Ya'er.

Since the beginning of the appearance of the painting,

I have already started to be suspicious.

Even if the Qin people didn't do it,

how could that painting be among the gifts?

There's only one possibility. Someone is trying to catch a fish in the muddled water.

Escaping to Qin.

You should know that the Royal Descendant of Qin is making use of you.

Letting you come forth.

Is this worth doing it for a man who doesn't love you?!

It's worth it.

As the princess of Zhao state, I'm ordering you

to release them immediately.

Release them.

Thank you, Princess, for saving us.

The one whom I saved, it's not you. The one who should thank me, it's not you too.

If Li Haolan didn't ask me to come and save you in time,

you would have harmed Royal Descendant's life.

Haolan?

Seems like Haolan already knew about this.

Come to think of it, if it wasn't Li Haolan already guessed your plan

otherwise why exaggerate the situation.

Also help you delayed in front of the Wei & Chu officials.

To get more time.

Lu Buwei, you have underestimated women.

You should know, in this world,

you are not the only smart person.

Older brother, what brings you here?

No matter how, I couldn't figure it out.

You know you played by Lu Buwen.

Why do you still help them?

Older brother.

Don't you know why?

I understand now.

What do you understand?

You came out to save them

To get Yiren's gratitude, to get the one you love, is it correct?

From the look of it,, your reaction is not that slow.

I still want to tell you something.

Royal Father received a big shock.

He commanded General Lungxian overnight,

to hurry over to Mt Mafu.

Gao Haoyang is coming ?

General Lungxian is stay at another palace.

What must Elder brother do,

You don't need me to say more, right?

You are really on my side.

I already said that, as long as you don't touch Yiren,

no matter when, I will always be on your side.

Without Haolan's help,

we would have lost our lives.

Therefore we need to be extra careful in the future.

You still want to escape?

If we give up now, all our efforts will be for naught.

The current situation.

Is definitely not optimistic.

You are wrong.

That day during the ceremony, there will be actors coming in.

They will stay in the palace for one day.

Your meaning is...

Zhao King got scared to death.

That day Gongsun Que will also be transferred to guard duty.

Therefore we need to grasp this opportunity.

Haolan, Haolan.

When did you know?

When you revised the idea.

Giving the portraits to both Chu and Wei.

I knew right away you have another agenda.

To tell you the truth.

Leaving Zhao State.

I don't plan to come back.

You have almost died for me on several occasions.

Trying to convince me not to betray.

But in a merchant's eyes.

People to us are only useful or useless.

I have never fell for you.

The partnership is only exploitation.

Li Haolan, I've always been using you.

You didn't break your words.

You did left me half of your assets.

I found this in the room.

My anger dissipated.

Lu Buwen.

I won't get mad at you.

Exploiting. I will let you exploit.

You are jerk, heartless.

You try to use half of your assets to escape from me.

Keep your big daydreaming.

A cold hearted person living will only hurt others.

Why don't you go die?

If anyone can hurt me I will let them be hacked too.

Leaving already?

If you dare to do this again.

I will puck your head off.

Hung on the top of the city gate.

Do you understand?

Remember carefully.

Good partner.

- Haoyang. - Why are you here, Your Highness?

I heard that you're leading your troops over to protect His Majesty,

so I'm here to welcome you to the Palace.

Haoyang doesn't dare trouble Your Highness. [Zhao General, Gao Haoyang]

We're all family. No need to stand on ceremony.

When Xiuyu knew that you were coming, she even prepared a feast to welcome you. Follow me.

My apologies. I need to go to the Palace to see His Majesty.

Okay, let's go together then.

- Later— - I'm on official business, so I can't linger.

Please forgive me, Your Highness.

Let's go.

Princess Consort, why don't you start eating first?

Let's wait a little longer.

Your Highness, you're back?

Didn't you go welcome my brother?

Brother? Brother! Brother...

You call him Brother so endearingly,

but he has never paid me any attention.

I was being nice when I invited me, yet he treated me coldly.

Your Highness! Don't be angry, Your Highness.

Your Highness, Brother lost his mother since young

and his father was always at battle.

He stayed at my house and is close to me.

But... it's just that he's aloof and proud

and he doesn't warm up to people easily.

But don't worry, Your Highness. I'll definitely talk him around

so that he'll understand Your Highness' kind intentions.

Really?

As long as it'll make Your Highness smile,

Xiuyu is willing to do anything.

I'm always blowing my top at you. You won't get mad at me, right?

Xiuyu understands Your Highness' difficulties.

Why would I get mad at you?

Even if the whole world cannot understand you,

Xiuyu will understand you

and support you. I'll always look up to you.

Prince Consort, it's better if you leave these chores to me.

Don't get your hand hurt.

The Prince's daily meals

are all prepared by you.

You specially burn mugwort leaves to repel mosquitoes in the room you stay in.

The fluffy bedding, the pillow to recline on the bed

and the clothes he wears

were all sewn by you a stitch at a time.

Yet he treats you like this now.

Shut your mouth!

Fangcao is just sad for you.

Go find out

where Brother is staying.

Yes.

Prince Consort, General Gao has gone to see His Majesty.

I'll wait until he comes back then.

I'll have to trouble Troupe Leader to help me out when the time comes.

Here.

Thank you.

Go.

Bring the Troupe Leader to me.

Yes.

Willing to confess now?

I'll tell. I'll tell it all.

They're well-equipped with ivory-clad bows and sharkskin arrow holders, how can I not be on guard every day?

The business of the Xian-yun is very urgent

At first, when we set out, the willows were fresh and green.

Now, when we shall be returning,

The snow will be falling in clouds. Long and tedious will be our marching.

We shall hunger, we shall thirst.

Our hearts are wounded with grief,

And no one knows our sadness.

Do you know the meaning of this poem?

A solitary traveler remembered the day he set out on his journey

when the spring breeze softly swayed the willow tree,

and everything was filled with hope.

But when he started on his journey home, all he encountered were snow blizzards

and muddy paths under his feet.

He was hungry and cold, and his heart was full of sorrow.

So what do you think he was searching for?

Perhaps there was a wife

waiting for him in his hometown.

Or it could be a beautiful lover.

Even though they were separated by a thousand miles, but within his heart

they were always together and never apart.

This is not like a poem,

but more like a joke.

Your Highness does not feel touched at all?

When I was young,

I thought that there would be someone in this world

who would always belong to me.

But later I discovered

everything I gave him

became the sword

that pierced my heart.

I was foolish. So foolish

Silly child,

I don't like this poem.

- Tell me a different one. - Yes.

Stop there.

Lü Buwei.

Stop there! Hey!

Lü Buwei.

That person...

You did not see anybody just now.

That palace maid is a man.

Haolan...

- Really? - Your Highness,

Xiuyu has already asked the troupe leader. He has confess everything.

You do not have to get involved in this matter anymore.

Prince, we cannot let go of such a great opportunity.

Ya'er loves Royal Descendant of Qin very much.

If I arrest him rashly, Ya'er will be put in a spot.

Knowing Ya'er's character, she'll definitely make a big fuss out of it.

Prince, there are certain things you can't do

but I can.

I'm the Prince Consort. If I discover someone trying to escape from the Palace,

it's only right for me to arrest them.

Whoever the Princess wants to blame, she can't blame you.

Xiuyu.

Your Highness, Xiuyu knows what to do.

I will definitely handle this well.

Your Highness will never be dragged into this.

Thanks.

Your Highness, Older Sister thinks that you're callous and unfeeling.

That's because she doesn't understand you.

Because among all the princes in the palace,

you're the one having the hardest time.

Although I'm not as smart as my older sister

but I can use my life to protect you.

There were no Wei soldiers conducting security checks this whole time. Aren't things going too smoothly?

Everyone is so busy with the memorial ceremony. No one has time to do security checks naturally.

Stop there!

Kneel!

Treasurer Lu.

It's late and you are leaving the palace. Where are you going?

What about you, older sister?

Royal Descendant, please show yourself immediately!

If you don't come out, I will kill Li Haolan now.

Royal Descendant, this is unfair.

Can you put down the sword now?

Arrest them.

His Majesty will interrogate you tomorrow. Be good and wait here.

I already told you not to take the risk.

This is simply a child's game.

Brother Lü is not to blame for this.

The King of Zhao has been anxiety-ridden due to the Wei and Chu matter.

He summoned Gao Haoyang to protect him

and even expelled all the acrobatic troupes.

There are many acrobatic troupes here for the memorial ceremony.

How could the soldiers possibly check every single person?

Seems like Xiuyu has been monitoring you.

Royal Descendant, I've been running around for you and even willing to sacrifice my life.

At the most critical moment,

you can't just let me get killed.

Lu Buwei, how can you say this at this time?

When the sun rises tomorrow, it's the time for interrogation.

When that time comes, push all the responsibilities

to me.

His Majesty won't believe this.

Since we've already formed an alliance,

this is the only way to ensure that our loss is the most minimal.

I got it.

Is anyone there?

Is anyone out there?

What are you doing?

Why did you shout?

Come, this is for you.

Don't waste your efforts. I will never let you escape.

You don't need to do this. Yo only need to do a small favor for me.

Once it's done, there will be more rewards as thanks.

What small favor?

I want you to spread a small information.

Royal Father, there has been rumors flying around since morning,

saying that there's a man hiding in the Palace.

And that he's suspected of having a promiscuous relationship with one of the ladies.

What man?

It happened to be the memorial ceremony yesterday.

In the Palace, there's the acrobatic troupes, the ministers here to report and the soldiers doing patrolling.

Isn't that normal to have a few men?

Isn't it normal?

Your Highness, the words of those people seem to be credible.

They said that a man dressed as a woman and walked around the palace.

If there's nothing to hide, he can just walk around naturally. Why disguise as a woman?

What you said, did you personally witness it?

Royal Father, I didn't personally witnessed it

But the rumors are causing a clamor and growing in intensity.

I think it should be true.

Is this even called the Royal Palace?

They don't care if anyone just wanders around.

Yu'er, go. You must investigate this clearly.

Yes, Royal Father. I will investigate this now.

Reporting!

Your Majesty, the Prince Consort is seeking an audience.

Let her in.

Yes.

Your Majesty, Your Highness.

Your Majesty, during the memorial ceremony yesterday, some people had ulterior motives

and tried to escape. Xiuyu caught them red-handed on the spot.

These people...

What's going on?

Tell everything to His Majesty.

Yes. Someone gave me a thousand gold to take the Royal Descendant of Qin out from the palace.

- Speaker louder. - Speak louder.

Who gave you the one thousand gold?

It was Lu Buwei. It's him!

Lu Buwei, did I not treat you well?

How could you do something like this?

Do you know what's the crime for releasing the Royal Descendant of Qin?

- Beheading. - You still dare to to that?

And you too, Li Haolan.

Royal Descendant of Qin is a hostage prince of Qin.

As for you, you are from Zhao state. How could you dare

to betray me?

Your Majesty, this has nothing to do with Li Haolan. She's innocent.

Shut up.

Your Majesty, we were framed by someone.

Lü Buwei, there were many witnesses.

You can't lie your way out.

Your Majesty, Lü Buwei is greatly indebted to you,

yet he colluded with Li Haolan to let the Qin state hostage escape.

Our two countries are currently at war.

Their actions are equivalent to betraying their country.

Please punish them severely, Your Majesty.

You people... Drag them out. Deal with them according to the law.

Yes.

You are laughing? What are you laughing at?

I'm laughing, because Your Majesty has been hoodwinked and is unable to distinguish right from wrong.

I'm not being bold, but rather I have a clear conscience.

Lu Buwei, at this stage,

you're still trying to lie your way out?

May I ask one thing? Everyone was busy with the memorial ceremony,

why were you the only one who showed up at the East Gate?

That's because I discovered your plot.

Since you took the money, why did you betray the person who paid you?

I...

Your Majesty, take a look.

This is the Princess' so-called evidence.

So he was actually beaten into confessing.

What do you mean?

Lü Buwei, don't try to slander me.

Your Majesty, I didn't lie. It was definitely him.

Your Majesty, if I were beaten till this state,

don't even talk about framing someone. If they want me to say that the sun rises from the west,

I would too.

Don't forget. You three were leaving the Palace in the middle of the night.

If that's not escaping, what is it then?

We were trying to catch your lover.

♫ Like the zither and the harp that play in perfect harmony, let’s grasp each other's hand to stay together ♫

♫ Wishing for you and me to be immortalized with the wind... ♫
