Brother Zhu

You look scary now

Somebody's here

Boss, what took you so long to wash your hands?

Brother Long!

Come here, the water is so cooling!

Stop playing now

Shu Jian is severely injured

he can't delay any longer

It's better if we make haste

All right!

Master...

let's go

How tiring!

I have to be careful in every way

in the palace

I don't even dare to drink the wine

Wine!

All right!

How nice!

Delicious!

Can boundless grief be drowned in wine

My boat tossed by high waves

Streamers of wine shop fly

The Farewell Ferry and the Beauty's Bridge would pine

Wind blows from hour to hour

Rain falls shower by shower

- When may I go home to wash... - She's so excited

My old robe outworn

To play on silver lute

And burn the incense mute

- Oh, time and tide will not... - Yi Huan...

Wait for a man forlorn

With cherry red spring dies

When green banana sighs

With cherry red spring dies

When green banana sighs

Yi Huan...

Open the door, Yi Huan!

It's hot

So hot

Yi Huan!

Yi Huan!

What happened?

She must be drunk

It's her bad habit

She likes to drink

but she's not good at it

She will be drunk after a few cups of wine

Once she's drunk, she'll start singing and dancing

She must have been enduring it in the palace

So she loses control

once she's outside

- Yi Huan! - Yi Huan...

- Open the door, Yi Huan! - Yi Huan...

- Yi Huan! - Yi Huan...

Good...

- Can boundless grief... - Good...

- Can boundless grief... - Great singing...

Be drowned in wine

My boat tossed by high waves

Streamers of wine shop fly

Good...

Great singing!

Awesome!

Wind blows from hour to hour

Pretty girl, come down and sing!

And this hairpin will be yours

Yi Huan, come down!

How embarrassing!

Yi Huan, stop singing

Go back in!

But I still want to sing

Another song!

Sing again!

Is my singing good?

Yes...

Another song!

Consider these earrings

as a prize

If you can please my friends

it will be yours

All right, I'll continue singing!

Good...

Oh...

if you don't like these earrings

and the hairpin, I have this golden bracelet

Come down, pretty girl, and it will be yours

Hurry up and bring the ladder...

- Come down... - Stop singing!

- Go back! - Go back in!

You like my singing, right?

Yes!

Another song...

Here, pretty girl

Let me help you put this on

Here, give me your hand

Golden bracelet?

I don't want it!

No!

You don't like it?

It's fine, I have a bracelet made of mutton jade

Yi Huan!

Come down!

Be careful... master!

Who is it?

You! How dare you!

How dare you interfere my business!

Who are you?

So what if I interfere your business?

- Don't you dare touch me! - I'm touching you, so what?

You're dead!

Master!

Stop!

Go away...

What's wrong, Sir Yang?

He's a martial art master

Are you eating too much?

We're here for serious business

There's no need to cause trouble

Why must you fight over a girl?

Let's go

No, my friend

It's not about fighting over a girl

It's about my reputation

I must let them know who is the master here

Who is the ruler

I'm the ruler!

Awesome...

Stop screaming

When you're sober, I...

- I'll punish you for sure! - All right

Great...

Young man

Please forgive me, young man

I don't know the girl belongs to you

How about you sell her to me?

I'll give you 1000 taels

1000 taels...

I'll give you 2000 taels!

I'll give you 3000 taels!

Go!

Brother Zhu!

Brother Zhu!

I...

Nasai, let's go

Yi Huan

Finally, you're awake

Here, come and wash your face

Drink some tea

Sister Xue...

Last night...

Was I drunk last night?

Did I do anything silly?

You were way too drunk last night

You have no idea

You were brawling

Seriously?

Of course

You went out of your room

singing and dancing

Everyone was looking at you

Some even wanted to buy you

Master and Eldest Senior were so angry

Master even fought with those people

I'm doomed!

So you should stop drinking too much

A sweet and nice sugar-coated haws!

Do you want one?

The embroidery is nice

Brother Long

Master

Delicious bun!

Please take a look. Do you like it?

Brother Zhu...

Please take a look

Bun!

- Fresh from the stove - They just ignore me...

I'll find Sister Xue

How petty is Brother Long

and Brother Zhu!

I was just drunk. Not a big deal

They keep ignoring me

Is that really necessary?

Oh, my

How could you complain about them?

The emperor didn't want to

cause any fuss during his visit

But you've made such a big fuss

I think it's the first time

for the emperor

to fight with others over a girl

He just threw away his dignity

considering his real identity

Of course, he'll be angry

As for Eldest Senior

you're his fiancée since small

of course, he'll be even more angry

The point is, I have no idea that the wine

is such a strong alcohol

It's sweet when I drink it

After a while

my mind was blank, and I didn't know what I've done

Yi Huan

It's alright to act freely sometimes

But you should behave yourself

in this particular occasion

Do you know

how everyone worried about you last night?

What if you reveal our identity

accidentally when you were drunk?

Luckily you were just

dancing and singing after you got drunk

You didn't say anything inappropriate

Otherwise, all of our effort

during these times

were wasted

It's my fault

I won't dare to drink anymore

Nasai

- Yes, uncle - Ask them to feed the horses

After that, send a few guards

to check on the surrounding

Yes, uncle

Why are you ignoring me?

Who said to me before that

no matter what kind of things I've done

you won't get angry at me

And you won't ignore me

If you eat your words

then you're a puppy

Stop playing innocent

I thought you already forgot

our relationship?

Brother Zhu

What are you talking about?

You will be my Brother Zhu forever

And I will be your Yi Huan forever

Oh, yes, look...

You're handsome when you smile

You looked so ugly just now

Naughty girl

You know how to take advantage

of my soft side

The Fourth Master is calling me

But if I leave now

it will surely cause suspicion to

Kang Xi and Songgotu

How about this?

Let me go

If Kang Xi and Songgotu ask about me

tell them that

because both of you keep ignoring me

I'm angry at both of you

All right, make haste for it

Yi Huan!

Fourth Master!

I miss you so much!

Do you miss me?

You haven't mastered your skills

how dare you sneak away from the valley?

I was worried about you!

Where's the Crown Prince?

He's not convenient to come and see you

What's wrong, Fourth Master? Did something happen?

The daughter of Shu Jian, Shu Wan Xin

has escaped

Fourth Master...

What's wrong?

Lady Shu is having a heart pain again

Go, quick!

Help!

Are you alright, Lady Shu?

Master

I'm having a heart pain

Please help me

Help me

Heart pain?

- Is it serious? - Yes

I will die

if there's no help

Please...

Go and find Physician Fan for me

Your godfather was not in the valley

and I couldn't break the rules

against bringing the physician from outside

I could only drive the carriage

and take Shu Wan Xin

outside and find the physician

Faster!

Faster!

Master Ye...

My stomach hurts

Let me go down

I want to release myself

Master Ye...

My stomach hurts

Stop...

Thank you, Master Ye

Never did I expect that

she'll take the chance to escape

Shu Wan Xin was born in a family of officials

She doesn't know about martial arts

How could she escape from your hands?

Well...

I'm a traditional man

I care about the honour between men and women.

She's a girl

going far to release herself

I can't make myself to follow her closely

When I found out that something was wrong

it was too late

And you know that

I'm a landlubber

I can't swim

How about Shu Wan Xin?

Did she drown?

Though she doesn't know martial arts

she is from a family of generals

thus she won't be as weak as other girls

Moreover, she was born at a place near the riverside

She's familiar with bodies of water

When Prince Jin asked me to watch over her

he gave me her background information

But still

I was fooled by her pitiful look of a sick person

I never expect her to escape

Oh no... we're finished!

If Shu Wan Xin reported to the officer,

the identity of Sixth Master and Sister Xue will be revealed!

The strange thing is...

she has escaped for a month now

But so far no action has been taken by the officers

Didn't Shu Wan Xin report to the officers?

We also don't understand it

her reason for not reporting about us

But...

most probably she has returned to her home in Shanxi

and looked for her father, Shu Jian

According to the news from Mo Sheng

Shu Jian is severely injured

But he still has his last breath

I think he must have wanted to see her daughter for one last time

Luckily, until today

Shu Wan Xin hasn't appeared yet

Oh no!

Kang Xi is going to see Shu Jian

If Shu Jian sees Shu Wan Xin

our identity will be revealed

You and the others are undercover in the palace

risking your life

But I can't even help you with this simple thing

Fourth Master, don't say that

It has already happened

so you don't have to blame yourself

I'll go back

and tell this to Brother Zhu

and Sixth Master

We'll think of a solution together

Alright

Now, you should try to delay the time

for Kang Xi to meet Shu Jian

I'll go and find Shu Wan Xin immediately

It's better we can find her before she meets her father

and bring her back to Pearl Valley

Imperial Physician Li

Sir Songgotu

Where is Lady Yi Huan?

Lady Yi Huan?

Since we're ignoring her

she ran away

because she's angry with us

Really?

If so, should we find someone

to look for her?

No

I know her character

She does it on purpose

She must have been

hiding in the forest

and waiting for us to find her

We'll do otherwise

She'll be back when she knows that

her trick is not working

Really?

I didn't expect Lady Yi Huan

to be so childish

But it's getting dark soon

and the master is running on a clock right now

I'm afraid that the master will be unhappy

about her delaying the time

How about this? We can go first

When she finds out that we've gone

she'll follow us

I don't think so

Though the master is chasing time

but he is more concerned about the safety of Lady Yi Huan

The master will not agree

to leave her alone here

You're right

Where did she go?

Oh, master

I nearly forgot

How's the investigation

of the spy in the valley going?

There are more than 300 households

in the Pearl Valley

with a population of more than 800 people

All of them escaped to the valley during Ming Dynasty

They're from all kinds of background

And their identities are complicated

It's hard to investigate

Actually, I fought with

the spy for a few times

Though he's wearing a mask

and changed his voice

his movements

look familiar to me

You... You fought with him?

How dare you go and catch the spy

with your poor skill?

Fourth Master!

Look how surprise you are

I'm fine, alright?

I wouldn't be able to stand before you if something had happened to me

I have the feeling that

the spy didn't want to hurt me

even though he had a few chances

to kill me

And I'm familiar with his martial art movements

I have the feeling that

he must be from the valley

Maybe he's close to me

Fourth Master, you must tell this to my father

and the other masters

Please contemplate on

the possibility of the spy's identity

Alright

I'll tell Prince Jin

But you must not force yourself after this

I have no daughter

only a son, Mo Sheng

For me

I've always treated you as my own daughter

I will be very sad

if something happens to you

Alright, Fourth Master

Don't worry

Though I'm weak in other martial arts

I'm good at qinggong

If something happens...

I'll just run

Though it's important to restore Ming Dynasty

the lives of all of you

are more important to me

Fourth Master...

All the other masters think that

reestablishing Ming Dynasty is the most important thing

Only you

love us this much

Well, I have to go now

All right

Songgotu

Master

Yi Huan still hasn't returned?

Yes, Lady Yi Huan is not back yet

Do we need to send someone to find her?

- That's not necessary! - She's too much!

I'm back!

Master!

Lady Yi Huan, the master is worried about you

Sir Songgotu

Please follow me

Alright. Master, I'll be going now

Brother Long

Are you still angry?

Do you plan to keep ignoring me?

If yes, there are hundreds of miles

before we reach Shanxi

are you planning to ignore me during the whole journey?

Brother Long

Brother Long

Oh no...

My Brother Long is ignoring me

What should I do?

Oh no... my goodness

Alright, then!

Li Yi Huan!

Will you admit your misbehaviour?

Yes, master

Then, tell me, what's your fault?

I'm a glutton

and I like to play and drink

If so, how will you atone for your wrongdoings?

How about I sing a song for you?

If you laugh

it means you forgive me, alright?

Alright, sing a song for me

Yes, I'll sing for you now

Master, listen

Can boundless grief be drowned in wine

My boat tossed by high waves

Streamers of wine shop fly

The Farewell Ferry and the Beauty's Bridge would pine

Wind blows from hour to hour

Rain falls shower by shower

When may I go home to wash my old robe outworn

To play on silver lute

And burn the incense mute

Oh, time and tide will not wait for a man forlorn

With cherry red spring dies

When green banana sighs

Li Yi Huan

Listen to me

If you ever dance for another man

or let another man see

other parts of your body, other than your face and hands

I...

I won't forgive you

Alright

- Stop! - Stop

Come down and pay us

- Slow down - What's happening?

We have to pass through

Stop talking nonsense. Pay the money there

Pay the money?

Sir, why should we pay to pass through the road?

You have to pay the tax

if you want to go in

- Tax? - Why are we stopping?

Master!

The guard said

we need to pay him tax

Tax?

Did you collect the tax every day?

Sir...

what money is this that you're collecting?

It's the boundary of the state

All business traveller

should pay 2000 coins

But we're not business travellers

Why do we still need to pay the tax?

I don't care what you are

You have to pay as long as

you're passing through

It's been more than 30 years since the establishment of Qing Dynasty

but I have never heard of such rule

Stop talking nonsense!

What are you trying to do?

You look like a rich person

how could you not have 2000 coins?

You can't pass through here

if you don't want to pay

Alright, I'll pay

But you have to tell me

who allowed you to collect the tax here?

This is the order from our governor

What do you want to do?

Brother Long

A small governor

is already brave enough to collect tax here

I bet it's more serious for officers with bigger titles

Go back and tell your governor

He'll soon lose his title

Real soon

Alright?

Our governor

knows someone from the imperial palace

Who do you think you are?

Us? We're...

Look, let's stop talking for now

Don't delay the business of the master

Give me the money

Looks like

my visit is worthy

Pay tax to go into the city

Sir...

Do we...

still need to pay to go into the city?

Yes

Five coins for each carriage

Five coins for each carriage?

What is it again?

Master

The guard said

we have to pay for the carriage

Each carriage five coins

We have to pay tax to enter the city?

Are there any rules here?

Rules?

The magistrate is the rules here

This order is from the magistrate himself

Come on

- Pay him! - Yes!

Oh, my...

You don't know what's the real rules

Ever since I entered Shanxi

I see that the citizens are sufferings

The officers are ruling their state in their own way

I travelled for a hundred miles

and three places are already

collecting taxes for their own reason

Before this, business travellers

were forced to pay the money for road repairing

The bribery is everywhere

I can't sleep

when I think of their sufferings

Boss, have you recorded them all?

Don't worry, I've recorded all of them

Boss

Do you think...

I am considered as a good emperor?

You? Average, I think

Don't be angry

You told me before that

I can't lie to you

I have to tell you the truth

If it's during old times

I might be upset after hearing this

But now, I won't

You're right

I'm just an average emperor

It's still a long way

to become a good emperor

Still, a long, long way to go

It's the dry season

Beware of fire

It's the dry season

Beware of fire

Where is Junior Ye?

He has other business

He'll be here later

This is the first golden key?

I found it from the items of

Yong Li emperor that Wu Ying Qi sent

Only godfather knows

whether this is real or fake

But godfather is back at the Pearl Valley to investigate on the spy

He'll only meet me next month in the capital

I'll keep the golden key first

On the second day after I got the key

Wu Ying Qi let Shu Jian

keep the items of Yong Li emperor

Shu Jian found the golden key

in front of us

and hang it on his neck for safekeeping

He must have not expected that

the golden key that he guarded with his life

is actually a fake

You were there when the robbers came

Do you have any clues who they are?

The robbers...

might be sent by Wu San Gui

On the first night after the robbing

Wu San Gui sent someone to look for Wu Ying Qi

On the next day

Shu Jian was attacked

Shi Qing Hong pretended to fight with his guards

Naturally, me and Junior Ye won't fight for real

Shu Jian might be a good general

who knows military strategies

but he's not good in martial arts
