[The Wolf]

[Episode 12] I thought you were just childishly willful

and I tolerated your temper.

But now you burned the agreement.

Your outrageous action will be reported to His Majesty.

We'll have the king give us an explanation.

You!

Murderer!

Bing’er is not guilty.

I didn't execute her.

Stop lying to me!

I don't want to stay in this place any longer!

♫ I have always been guarding♫

♫ Nothing has changed♫

♫ Like that star a billion years ago ♫

♫ Still twinkling ♫

♫ You have never given up waiting for me ♫

♫ Looking past the starry night ♫

♫ Your gaze was firm and warm ♫

♫ Like it was telling me ♫

♫ Wait for me ♫

I am sorry for what happened.

♫ Falling down; Igniting the fireworks of love ♫

♫ Fireworks vibrating ♫

I just realized...

it's the Double Seventh Festival.

I am sorry, Xing'er.

The fault lies with me.

I should have seen through Chu Kui's plan earlier.

Please let me protect you.

I will atone for the sins of the Night Fiends.

Halt!

State your business. Get off the horse.

Get out of my way! The princess is leaving!

In the middle of the night?

Do you have the command flag?

Command flag?

Who is this brat?

Get lost if you don't have the command flag!

You want the command flag?

Fine, see for yourself.

You really have it?

Don't you dare fool me.

Do you like this command flag?

Seize her!

Leave!

Make haste! Let's go home!

There's an ambush! Protect the princess!

Who's there? Stand aside!

My lady, please come with us.

Insolence!

Capture that girl!

It seems like the Central Plains have no decent men other than

that blinded Prince of Bo!

All the men here are thieves!

You get the job done, you get paid.

The rest of it, I leave it to you.

Bing'er, let's go.

Do not let her get away!

My leg hurts.

A bunch of worthless fools.

[Bo Royal Manor]

Third Brother, bad news.

Princess Bao Na was furious last night. She charged through the gate

and hurt our guards.

I thought she was celebrating the Double Seventh Festival with you.

Why were she and her guards leaving the city?

Master, it was my mistake.

After Her Highness had the argument with you and insisted to return to the imperial residence,

she wouldn't allow me to follow her.

I never thought she would leave without telling us.

I shall accept my punishment.

Which direction was she headed?

To the east of the city.

Third Brother, whatever the case is, she is the king's beloved daughter.

We cannot let her be harmed.

She was rude, but we must show our good faith.

My men are now searching for her,

but she only listens to you.

Third Brother, go find her.

Hai Die stays here.

Commandery Princess.

Second Brother,

you said Princess Bao Na has left the city in a fit of pique.

I thought she was celebrating the Qixi Festival with the Prince of Bo.

Hai Die, do you know what happened that night?

Your Highness, Commandery Princess,

Prince of Bo confronted Princess Bao Na because of

how Your Highness got injured.

The princess burned the agreement and left angrily.

When she left, she even wounded some guards.

I sense the scent of blood.

Stay cautious.

Our master is always so amazing.

He always catches the scent

miles before we get any tracks.

But why is there a scent of blood where the princess was?

Master,

these are all the princess' guards and servants.

But where is the princess?

Her guards were skilled in martial arts.

But these two were killed in a single strike.

It's apparent the killer

was no normal bandit.

It must have been an elite warrior.

Master, do you think the princess...

This matter is much more complicated.

They all served the princess.

How did this happen?

Your Highness, I was told

last night you and Princess Bao Na had an argument.

You upset her and that was why she left the city at night,

which led to her being attacked on the road.

Prince of Bo,

if you hadn't placed the blame on her, she wouldn't have left!

She was living in your manor, yet now she is in trouble!

I don't care if you are a prince, you must answer for this!

Punishing me is not the most pressing matter.

Our priority right now is to find the princess.

What now? You want a fight?

You were rude to Prince of Bo first.

Take another step and we won't show mercy.

Stand down!

Yes, Master.

Prince of Bo, if the princess is hurt in any way,

my king will send his army here.

Bodyguard Captain, please calm down.

We will definitely bring the princess back safely.

Third Prince, His Majesty asked

you and the Bodyguard Captain to meet him in the palace at once.

And the search for Princess Bao Na

will be handled by me now.

Go!

So, the King of Qitan agreed to send us troops?

Yes.

Princess Bao Na requested for her father to give military aid multiple times.

She is confident with Prince of Bo's strategic wisdom.

That's why the king agreed to aid you.

The princess placed the agreement inside the case of a painting.

She was hoping the Prince of Bo would appreciate the good faith

the moment he opened the gift and found the agreement.

But last night the Prince of Bo returned the agreement without even reading it once.

The princess felt humiliated.

That was why she burned the agreement and left the city.

Now she is nowhere to be found.

If His Majesty finds out, not only will the agreement be voided,

the two nations will also become enemies.

Prince of Bo, I ordered you to take great care of her.

Yet you upset her and caused her to leave in the middle of the night.

You disobeyed my order!

Father, she is missing because of me.

I will take responsibility for any consequences.

I will bring the princess back safely.

You can stop acting now.

Your Majesty, we have no faith in Prince of Bo's word.

He upset the princess and that was a grave mistake.

Should he fail to bring her back,

he is likely to run away and be gone for good.

Your Majesty, Prince of Bo must be imprisoned and await his trial.

Our guards will keep watch.

We'll take no chances.

Father, the prime minister is

currently leading a search for the missing princess.

I believe they will return with good news soon enough.

I am willing to assist the prime minister.

Prince of Yun, heed my order.

You must bring the princess back.

Do not create more tension between the two nations.

Your wish is my command.

Prince of Bo, if we can't find the princess,

I will show you no mercy.

Treason and negligence

will be the charges for your death sentence.

I gladly accept the punishment.

Guards,

take the sinner, Prince of Bo, to jail.

Yes!

What? Prince of Bo has been imprisoned?

What?

It was His Majesty's order.

If the princess is lost for good,

Prince of Bo must atone with his life.

Commandery Princess, there is still hope.

Mo Xiao and I will send search parties up the mountains.

Please don't be worried.

Searching without leads is as good as futile.

Does Your Highness mean Prince of Bo's life is forfeit?

Right.

Husband and wife are one, but they will be apart in the face of danger.

Not to mention you two aren't officially married.

Hai Die, mind your manners!

I am telling the truth.

For whom do you think Prince of Bo offended the princess?

Why do you think he returned the gift?

Prince of Bo was just imprisoned,

but Her Highness was showing no concern and was eager to burn the bridge.

I simply feel sad for my master.

Hai Die, what are you talking about?

Her Highness didn't chase the princess out.

Ever since she came here, Commandery Princess has suffered so much

and because of Prince of Bo she put up with everything.

She never complained. So why are you even complaining?

Ma Jing, enough!

Your Highness, this might sound offensive to you,

but if any harm comes to my master, you and your servants

will pay dearly for it.

Hai Die, enough.

Ma Jing, pack our belongings. We're leaving.

But, Your Highness, why?

The danger is upon her, she is running back to the frontier

for her family army's protection.

Go. I won't bother to see you out.

Don't bother!

Wait.

Your Highness, are we really leaving?

Yes. We need to go now.

I need to talk to His Majesty now and rescue Prince of Bo.

Your Highness.

Hurry!

Did you hear that? Did you hear that?

Here is the good daughter of a feudal master,

and also Prince of Bo's good princess consort.

Ma Jing!

I'm coming!

Prince of Bo is being cornered.

The whole court is using this chance to plot against him.

The only person who cares for him

and is able to persuade His Majesty

is none other than her.

Greetings, Your Majesty.

You are requesting to join the search for Princess Bao Na?

Please grant me the permission.

Princess Bao Na left in the middle of the night

and now Prince of Bo is in prison.

I am responsible as well.

I hope to make amends.

I wish to save Princess Bao Na and also Prince of Bo.

As for the search for Princess Bao Na,

I have placed the Prince of Yun and the prime minister in charge.

However, you are intelligent.

Eight years ago you solved the case of Adjutant General Xiahou Yi.

To this day, I still have a deep impression of that.

We need all the help we can get.

I'll make an exception for you.

You shall have a hundred imperial guards to rescue Princess Bao Na.

Much obliged, Your Majesty.

Rise.

If you manage to bring her back, you shall have my thanks.

I know the princess has been bothering Prince of Bo

and burned the agreement out of spite.

But now she is in danger.

So is You Zhen.

As you know, what I hate the most

is being used as a pawn.

But this time I was left with no choice.

If we can't save Princess Bao Na,

I can only sacrifice Prince of Bo.

I won't let Your Majesty lose any one of your sons,

but I do have a request.

I hope to have Your Majesty's permission.

What is it?

I wish to enter the prison and visit Prince of Bo.

Prince of Bo was the first to arrive at the spot where Princess Bo Na was ambushed.

His Highness has been to the spot, and he must have found some traces.

I need to inquire of him about it.

I need more clues.

Even if I allow you to meet him,

I am afraid the Bodyguard Captain won't let you pass.

Your Majesty, the Bodyguard Captain may be holding a grudge and taking it personally.

I have a way to persuade them to let me visit Prince of Bo.

Prince of Bo is an important prisoner.

No visitors allowed.

Please leave, Commandery Princess Ma.

Do you know she is Prince of Bo's future wife?

How dare you stop her from visiting!

I'll be frank with you.

If Princess Bao Na is not found,

there might not even be a Prince of Bo in the future.

We are just as worried as you are.

We too wish for Her Highness to return safely.

What we must do now is not fight each other but work as one.

Anyone is capable of fancy words.

Commandery Princess, stop wasting your time.

Please go back.

In that case... I'll strike a deal with you, Bodyguard Captain.

If you allow me to visit Prince of Bo, before tomorrow afternoon,

Princess Bao Na will be returned.

If not, punish me however you wish.

What say you?

A life for a life.

This bargain is worth it.

If you insist... very well.

Dying together?

Is this what you wish?

I want to die by your side.

But I want even more

to live with you.

Hai Die told me everything.

You were worried about my injury.

That was why you confronted Bao Na and returned the gift.

After knowing all you've done for me,

how could I not do anything?

You misunderstood.

I blamed Bao Na for causing your injury,

but only because you are my princess consort.

I did so to preserve the court's reputation.

Your Highness, what about the fragrance pouch?

Was it also because I am your princess consort?

I requested His Majesty's permission.

Along with the imperial guards,

I shall join the search as well.

No.

I am imprisoned. I have no way to protect you.

Then let me protect you.

You've gone through

the worst danger for me in the past, no?

Before I was your consort,

you saved me from the hands of the Young Feudal Master of Tongzhou.

You were badly wounded because of me.

And because of my ailment,

you went against the royal order and defeated the guards

only to take me with you.

You even allowed me into your courtyard against regulations,

showing me kindness when I was all alone.

Now, you are in jail because of me.

Even if you did everything

simply because I was betrothed to you,

then so be it.

♫ I have always been guarding♫

♫ Nothing has changed♫

There isn't any woman who has the qualities to be my wife

that can make me care so much for her.

It's only because you are Ma Zhaixing.

♫ Looking past the starry night ♫

♫ Your gaze was firm and warm ♫

♫ Like it was telling me ♫

♫ Wait for me; Falling down for you ♫

♫ Falling down; Igniting the fireworks of love ♫

This present for the Double Seventh Festival...

After we've rescued Princess Bao Na,

I want you to give it to me in person.

Judging by your temper, once you've decided,

you're even more stubborn than Bao Na.

For your search, bring Wen Yan, Mo Xiao and Hai Die with you.

Be cautious.

Whoever captured her is a skilled warrior.

All of her guards were killed in one strike.

Stay cautious.

Thank you for reminding me.

I still need one more thing that you have.

I need it as my talisman.

I need your blood.

Your Highness!

Your Highness!

Your Highness.

How did it go?

This is the princess's favorite Flower Moon Rouge you asked me to bring.

As per your order, we have brought the warrior wolf from the Bo Army here.

Commandery Princess, be careful.

The wolf may be tamed, but it only obeys Prince of Bo.

Only he can approach the wolf.

So it listens only to Prince of Bo?

To tame a beast like this,

you must be capable of defeating it.

That is the only way.

Go.

I'll be waiting for your good news.

We need to work together to save Princess Bao Na and Prince of Bo.

Bring us to the owner of this scent.

She is Princess Bao Na.

So this is why you needed the rouge.

The scent is the same as what Princess Bao Na was wearing.

With its sense of smell, it can track her even in the wild.

Mo Xiao, open the cage.

Yes.

Brother Ji Chong, for you.

Brother Ji Chong.

It was all thanks to your support

that we were able to successfully capture this girl.

Here. I'll toast to you.

How about this?

Three days from now, I'll get more rewards.

Consider it compensation for my work.

Brother Ji Chong is outspoken indeed.

No.

I was being honest.

Brother Ji Chong, is this bird of prey yours?

This is Zhuiri.

He is my brother.

He's like my third eye.

It helps me see everything within a hundred-mile radius.

What is going on now?

This means enemies are approaching.

Zhui Ri, perhaps you should leave first.

This is interesting...

The wolf's howl and its bloodlust.

This wolf seems to have come for revenge.

Your Highness, shaking that bell is not going to help.

This wolf is not the Wolf Boy we knew from before.

It won't come back after hearing the ringing.

I am ringing this bell because I want it to sense Prince of Bo's scent

and then come back.

But it's so far away.

Can it even sense the smell?

Follow the wolf!

Come. Let's go.

Place the scorpions here. Take the hostage away.

We'll find shelter elsewhere.

Whoever controls this wolf must be a skilled warrior.

Unless we get rid of it, there will be more trouble.

Go ahead without me.

What I expect the most is to fight someone with skills.

I am a person who hates being chased and hunted down.

Very well, we leave the enemies to you.

Don't worry.

I love surprising other people.

Let's go.

Over there.

Commandery Princess. Look! It's Princess Bao Na's horse!

You're right. It's her horse.

Princess?

What is going on now?

Bing'er, do you still remember me?

We are here to rescue your master.

You must be worried about her, too. Right?

So the person who controls the wolf is actually a woman.

What's wrong, Bing'er?

Your breathing is burning and quick.

Bing'er.

The horse has been poisoned.

There are no symptoms, but the poison has invaded its body.

Running over five miles will cause the poison to spread all over and kill it.

Who would do such a thing?

Who would poison the princess' steed?

Princess Bao Na loves her horse.

The horse stayed in the palace stable.

Her palace was well guarded.

No normal person could go in there.

No normal person could go in there?

Unless...

Unless what?

Prince of Bo was right.

It wasn't a coincidence the princess went missing.

If the enemies only came up with the plan recently,

why would they kill only the guards and servants?

They clearly knew her true identity.

Which means Princess Bao Na didn't go missing,

she was kidnapped.

Kidnapped?

Yes.

And this kidnapping would likely be a conspiracy.

If there is a traitor among us, the whole incident

will make perfect sense.

The enemies knew the horse was fast, so they poisoned it.

Once the princess left Imperial City, they abducted her.

It seems like someone meticulously planned this.

So if there is a traitor, who could it be?

The horse was staying in the stable. Who has been its handler?

Also, who would know the princess's every move after she arrived?

In that case... it's Second Prince's doing.

Who? Second Prince?

Our priority is to find the princess.

As for who the traitor is...

Prince of Yun's Manor has many servants. Prince of Yun may not be involved personally.

It's too early for any conclusion.

After we save Prince of Bo, we'll come up with another plan.

It's almost nightfall.

It's harder to find her after dark.

We must make haste and search.

See if we can find more tracks.

Yes, Your Highness.

I can't afford to let them spoil my business.

I need to save my big client, Prince of Yun.

But the truth of it is intriguing.

She can notice a movement behind her.

Who exactly is she?

Is Your Highness hurt?

I am fine.

Watch out here.

This area is crawling with poisonous scorpions.

Seeing this beauty was in danger, I couldn't help but to be the hero.

Thank you for your help.

However... who are you?

Why are you here?

My name is Ji Chong.

I'm a bounty hunter who does the bidding of those who pay me.

I am also one of the people you're looking for.

A while back, a mysterious client from the capital offered a high price

to gather the most elite warriors around Imperial City.

He offered a deal for us to work together on a task.

The deal was to abduct a girl who left the city alone.

Hold on.

I had a fallout with those people.

They are enemies now.

When they brought her back,

I realized the girl was actually a lady from Qitan.

That goes against my code of conduct.

When I was about to quit,

those vagabonds, they turned against me and wanted me dead.

So how are you still alive?

It's Heaven's will!

When we were about to fight, a fierce wolf came out of nowhere.

It was watching us closely.

The gang scattered in a hurry.

And during the confusion, I hid behind the tree to save my skin.

If I hadn't seen this lady

almost walking into the group of scorpions they placed here earlier,

I would have taken a nap and gone off the mountain alone.

Nowadays it's hard being a good guy.

Thank you for saving me.

I am Ma Zhaixing. We're from the Bo Royal Manor.

If you're telling the truth,

would you be willing to atone for your crime by assisting us

in searching of the abducted girl?

If you pay me, I am willing to do anything.

Those people are headed for Ling Yun Temple for shelter.

If you make haste and take a shortcut,

you might stand a chance to intercept them halfway.

If you are telling the truth, that means you've saved us.

I will repay your kindness.

Let's go.

Thanks.

Head for Ling Yun Temple!

Let me go!

- Shut it! - Let me go!

Make more noise or say another word,

and you can bid your tongue farewell!

I'll make you eat it!

I mean it!

Boss, don't waste your time.

Ling Yun Temple is just up ahead.

With some drugs, we can put her to sleep. Right?

- Just walk. - All right.

Princess, are you hurt?

Princess, are you hurt?

What took you so long?

These bandits were all rude to me!

Don't let any one of them get away with this!

Okay.

Princess, we cannot stay here.

Let's return now.

I am not going!

I want you to arrest these bandits first!

I want them to suffer!

Have mercy, Princess!

Have mercy on us!

Princess... Princess!

Princess...

- You. Stand up. - Princess.

You were the one that hit me just now.

Have mercy on me! Have mercy on me!

Have mercy on me!

Princess!

Nice shot. Right on the mark.

You bet.

But it's not on a par with your Commandery Princess's resolve to risk her life for the princess.

Princess, are you hurt?

Are you all right?

What about you?

I am fine.

It's over now.

You're safe.

You get the merit for aiding us,

but your involvement in this abduction means you know what we don't.

We cannot let you leave.

Press another blade on me

and I might fall for you.

You...

Stop!

Commandery Princess.

He may be involved,

but if he hadn't given us leads, we wouldn't have succeeded so fast.

Speaking of which, his merits make up for his wrongdoings.

We shouldn't treat him like a criminal.

As for what he knows, I believe he is willing to tell us all.

After all, that will be his leverage to absolve himself.

As I said,

I have no idea who hired us.
