[Song of Youth]

[Episode 43 - Finale]

[Virtuous Adherence Hall]

[Sun]

By the will of Heaven and decreed by the Emperor:

Guilty minister Sun Xun

embezzled from the national treasury and military provisions, grasped all power to himself,

framed important minister of the imperial court, Liang Jingguan,

colluded with eunuchs, disrupted the rule of the court, disobeyed imperial commands,

repeatedly violated national law, rampant beyond reason. His heinous crimes are wicked beyond redemption.

But, considering his four sons are all pillars of the state

and have diligently worked hard for the imperial reign. Hence Sun's family members are pardoned.

I hereby bestowe Sun Xun a cup of poisonous wine

and order him to commit suicide as a token of imperial grace. As decreed.

This guilty minister has accepted the decree.

[To Shaochun]

[To Shaochun]

Shaochun, when I first met you, I knew I wanted to be with you forever.

But I don't know how we have reached this point now.

When my family was at the top of its prosperity,

I tried every which way to leave the house. Now, there is no one at home.

I actually miss the lively scenes at home.

Even though there were many misunderstandings and confclits, at least my heart knew where the home was.

Shaochun, I really do love you.

I want to be with you for the rest of our lives.

Unfortunately, we have drifted apart further away.

Even though I love you, I cannot shed the shame of my father's enormous greed.

I can never face you again.

After I've left, please forget me.

You don't need to look for me. The mountain range is long and the rivers are wide,

we will each take care. Yulou bids final farewell.

[To Shaochun]

[Tomb of Deceased Friend Sun Xun]

I didn't expect you to come.

Since Yulou isn't back, I'm here to serve his filial duty for him.

You are still missing him.

How can I forget him?

Why aren't you looking for him?

He already decided. How can I make it hard for him?

This matter involves two people. Why can he decide on his own?

If I were you, I would go look for him.

Look into his heart to see if he really wants to leave,

or, he doesn't dare to face you.

If he really wants to leave, forget him then.

Start anew.

If he doesn't dare to face you, persuade him then.

Life is short.

Don't regret when it's already too late to turn back.

At that time, it will be too late.

Just like it was for me.

Master, you loved him, right?

Back then,

I should have fought hard.

If I had been by his side, perhaps

he wouldn't have fallen to this state.

But there is no if in life.

Go find him.

You have to fight for what you want.

If you don't fight for it, how will you know the result?

Are you leaving again?

Yes. I've already searched in the north.

I'm ready to go south.

Let me show you something good.

Look.

[For Yao Dizhu]

- What is it? - Junhao sent a letter.

So Second Older Brother sent a letter. Why are you showing it to me?

It's all about the family.

I'm sure you'd want to listen.

Dizhu, I hope you'll see my words as if seeing me. How have you been?

Mother and the rest of the family are doing well here.

- Eldest Sister-in-law gave birth to a boy. - Eldest Sister-in-law gave birth to a boy.

He is named Sun Xiaoyi.

Eldest Brother opened a private schoolroom in Mu City.

Even when he gets home, he continues to teach the kid.

Guan-guan go the ospreys, on the islet in the river. (from the Classic of Poetry - this translation is by James Legge, 1815-1897)

The modest, retiring, virtuous, young lady: — For our prince a good mate she.

Yi'er, read after Dad.

Guan-guan go the ospreys. Huh!

Yi'er, drink chicken soup.

- On the islet in the river. Hey! - Who taught you that?

- Mom. - Go. Drink it inside.

- Stop right there. - Hurry, Yi'er. Go.

Yuehong, we can't teach the kid this way.

Jinge opened a repair shop in Mu City.

Third SIster-in-law is in charge of the accounts.

All day long, the two of them are in a turmoil like flying chickens and jumping dogs

But they live more happily than anyone else.

You have a belly full of bad ideas.

- The customer is a girl, so you don't charge her a fee? - No.

Why didn't you do some work for me?

I wanted you to chop firewood, you didn't even chop well.

- What use do I need you for? - Let go of me.

Why don't you go find a useful one? Go live with him, don't live with me.

- You were twisting my ear. - Sun Jinge!

You've never treated me nice like that.

And now, I've come afar with you.

You take my advantage.

Wife, I was just teasing you.

Don't cry. Don't cry. If you never hit me,

I would feel so uncomfortable. Don't cry. Be good.

Go, go, go. I'll buy you something good to eat.

Don't cry. Don't cry.

Madam, rest a little and drink some water.

Last night, I dreamed of Master again.

I also dreamed of him.

You did too?

Madam, do you think Master is still alive?

We can think this way.

Who knows, maybe when we open the door one day, he will be standing right there.

You don't believe?

Master!

Where?

Mother said, when it's spring and warm,

I can bring you to Mu City.

Shaochun, I believe

you will definitely find Fourth Young Master.

To the ends of the seas and the far corners of earth, I will find him.

Only when I find him, my life will have no regrets.

I'm leaving.

This subject, Liang Jinguan, respectfully greets Your Majesty.

May Your Majesty live 10,000 years and many more.

- Lord Liang. - Present.

Do you know why I've summoned you here today?

I do not know.

But I rushed over here as soon as I heard the summons.

During the past two years, you achieved merits by aligning with Lin Shaochun to strike down Sun Xun.

I reinstated you to your original position. Are you living comfortably?

This subject does not dare to relax.

This subject will dedicate all my energy and efforts for Your Majesty.

Lord Liang, you have really gotten old.

Your Majesty, I'm not old.

I still want to stay bright and shining for Your Majesty.

After Sun Xun is eradicated,

you think no one else can oppose you in the court, so you are not cautious anymore?

Your Majesty, when I wasn't here,

has someone slandered me to Your Majesty?

Please inspect clearly, Your Majesty.

Summon!

This subject greets Your Majesty.

May Your Majesty live 10,000 years and many more.

You may rise.

Thank you, Your Majesty.

Lord Sun, have you located all the embezzled money and the evidence?

Luckily, I have not disappointed your command.

Didn't you already die?

Your Majesty! Sun Xun,

the scheming villain! He is framing me.

Please inspect clearly, Your Majesty.

Lord Liang, do you know why you were suddenly recalled to the capital after you were demoted?

It was because His Majesty wanted to find the money embezzled by you.

Unexpectedly, you leaked nothing.

Later, I found out that you had framed Lin Yuandao.

You also tried to frame me. So I discussed with His Majesty,

aligned with Shaochun, to set up a trap for you

so that you will reveal your fox's tail.

Liang Jinguan is powerful.

So I will cooperate with His Majesty to act out a show

to let Liang Jinguan think that he had reversed the defeat to victory.

Once he relaxes and reveals his loopholes,

we will catch all of them and locate all the embezzled money.

You are telling me all this. Do you want me to do something?

I want you to pretend to break up with me

and help Liang Jingguan to oppose the Sun family.

Also find a way to find Liang Jinguan's people inside the palace.

Remember, no one must know about this.

Including Yulou.

If you can uproot Liang Jingguan's power

and return justice to my father and the people,

I will surely do my best.

Sun Xun! You... You...

- Your Majesty, Your Majesty. - Liang Jingguan!

Your Majesty...

Fully 380,000 taels of silver - how much blood and sweat of the people that is!

Your crime deserves capital punishment.

- Guards! - Your Majestsy.

- Drag him out. - Yes.

Your Majesty, be merciful! Your Majesty.

He is falsely accusing me, Your Majesty.

Your Majesty, he is falsely accusing me.

Your Majesty, he is falsely accusing me.

Your Majesty, I'm innocent! Your Majesty!

I'm innocent!

Your Majesty.

Lord Sun, you've suffered.

In order to serve Your Majesty, I'm willing to sacrifice my life.

There is still now news on Yulou?

- Not yet. - Let Shaochun find him.

Liang Jingguan had too many spies, so we had to act out a full play.

They've suffered.

I will definitely reward everyone according to merits.

Oh yes, how are Nanny Chang and her family who faked their deaths?

Your Majesty, rest assured.

Their entire family is safe and sound.

- I already made arrangement. - That's good then.

I will reward everyone depending on merits. No one will be left out.

Thank you, Your Majesty.

Mister, have you seen this man?

He is about this tall.

I haven't seen him.

Thanks.

Just like this, Sun Yulou crossed mountains and rivers, walked all over the northern frontier and southern region.

He wanders everywhere while his heart misses one person.

- Wouldn't it be good if it's like this every day? - That's right.

Thank you, everyone.

What happened afterwards?

- Did Shaochun go to find him? - Did she find him?

That's right. What happened then?

Don't keep us hanging.

I'll tell you the rest of the story.

Later, Lin Shaochun crossed a thousand mountains and ten thousand rivers.

She went all over the far reaches of the sea and earth.

Finally, she found Sun Yulou.

- And then? - What happened then?

And then...

I don't know.

What happened then?

It's raining! Hurry and go!

Viewers,

This story of "Song of Youth" has shown all the happiness and sorrows in the world.

It is only to convey a thought to everyone.

That is, with kindness in your heart, actively move forward with optimism.

That Liang Jingguan schemed with his cunning viciousness,

committed wrongs after wrongs, and ended terribly.

Lin Shaochun and Jia Fengyuan both suffered grievance in their own father's death.

One motivated toward benevolence and lived a good life.

The other became extreme and ended in self-destruction.

Also, there are obsessed men and resentful women

who made different choices and received different fates in life.

As you see, regardless of a perilous situation or a smooth-sailing environment,

you must perservere in kindness and believe in goodness in life.

Be optimistic to progress and face

all the trials and tributlations that will confront you in life.

Only this way, you will be like the characters in the drama

to achieve a satisfying ending.

Enough of that. This drama has ended.

See you next time in another drama.

♫ As the winds starts, flower and snow falls ♫

♫ Frost begin to fall like jade ♫

♫ Let's promise to meet ♫

♫ Let's promise to be content ♫

♫ Let the bow of our boat be like the clouds and conceal the moon ♫

♫ Waking from a dream and listening to the misty rain ♫

♫ The sound of a brokenhearted in form of a poem ♫
